[00:00] <springmeyer> since it does not prompt for a password (I do have sudo...)
[00:00] <greyfox> springmeyer : chmod it
[00:00] <greyfox> chmod the file
[00:00] <ejv> alexnet: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH
[00:01] <springmeyer> greyfox: the file does not exist... I'm trying to create it
[00:01] <alexnet> ejv thanks
[00:01] <greyfox> ahh...
[00:01] <apparle> springmeyer: try su.............then you will be in super user mode .............then try the command
[00:01] <nine1six> hbekel: i've been learning with backtrack 3 and i got into my router fine, but i have a pc with an open port 139. i try to connect and it asks me for authentication. i know a little how to use hydra but i cant figure out how to get the username
[00:01] <greyfox> springmeyer : chmod the directory :)
[00:01] <trumpen> springmeyer, sudo bash -c "echo foo >file"
[00:01] <springmeyer> trumpen: ew, that looks like a good idea :)
[00:02] <springmeyer> great!
[00:02] <dtcrshr> hi everyone. im trying to set a wirelles connection with my ubuntu 8 lts on my access point. with this very machine im on irc im connectet to the ap, ans using just fine. using iwlist wlan0 scan i can see the same network, but on the network manager when i select to connect to it it keeps spining but dont connect
[00:02] <springmeyer> trumpen:  that works, thanks
[00:02] <trumpen> springmeyer, yw ;)
[00:03] <apparle> guys I was wondering can I share internet over bluetooth
[00:03] <Unislash> hey all :)
[00:03] <Unislash> i'm trying to share my firefox profile across windows xp and ubuntu jaunty
[00:04] <hbekel> nine1six: sorry, i don't know any of that stuff except that 139 is used by windows ;)
[00:04] <Unislash> it worked perfectly fine until i reinstalled windows
[00:04] <nine1six> yeah my other box on the network is windows. netbios
[00:04] <soreau> How can I uninstall all packages containing a particular keywork like with wildcard characters (*)?
[00:04] <apparle> Unislash: tell me how to do it...........I also want to do it
[00:05] <Unislash> because of the reinstall, the mount point of windows changed from /windows to /media/windows, and i made sure that the firefox profile manager reflected this change
[00:05] <soreau> Like how can I say 'aptitude remove *package*'?
[00:05] <Unislash> but when i try to start it from there, it says that the profile is already in use... even though i've shut it down on my xp disk. my xp disc is mounted.
[00:05] <Ben64> Unislash: sudo ln -s /media/windows /windows
[00:05] <Unislash> apparle: one sec :)
[00:05] <lucky__> hi, what file system i should use to have a date partition for win e ubuntu?
[00:06] <lucky__> ntfs or fat32?
[00:06] <Unislash> ben64: ln: creating symbolic link `/windows/windows': File exists
[00:06] <Ben64> lucky__: what?
[00:06] <apparle> lucky__: I use ntfs
[00:06] <deco> lucky__: ntfs too
[00:06] <dtcrshr> anyone can help me troubleshoot my wireless connection? i can see the connection, but it dont connect. keeps spinning and stops
[00:06] <deco> fat32 is outdated...
[00:07] <Ben64> lucky__: you know, there is a windows ext3 driver
[00:07] <Ben64> ext3 > ntfs
[00:07] <Unislash> apparle: simply run "firefox -p" in terminal, then create a new profile... the wizard will ask you for the new profile's base folder... put in the one that windows uses (in application data, under mozilla->firefox)
[00:07] <lucky__> ext3?
[00:07] <MadGirl> i think ext3 is safer
[00:07] <Ben64> lucky__: ext3 is the default filesystem for ubuntu
[00:07] <deco> Ben64: it's not you have a choice
[00:07] <Ben64> ext4 is coming to ubuntu soon
[00:07] <lucky__> yes, and you use that for win?
[00:08] <Ben64> lucky__: you probably can't install windows to ext3
[00:08] <deco> Ben64: ubuntu already supports ext4
[00:08] <Ben64> deco: i know -.-
[00:08] <lucky__> i know
[00:08] <Unislash> ben64: that created a symbolic link in /windows... so now i've got /windows/windows
[00:08] <deco> Ben64: Ben64> ext4 is coming to ubuntu soon
[00:08] <Ben64> lucky__: but you don't want to have linux and windows sharing a boot partition
[00:08] <lucky__> but what is a better choice for exchange data?
[00:09] <Ben64> deco: stop picking apart what i say
[00:09] <lucky__> ntfs is secure?
[00:09] <deco> Ben64: don't be so sensitive :D
[00:09] <Um_cara_qualquer> how can i set "extra efects" in the "visual efects"?
[00:09] <Ben64> lucky__: ntfs is not as good as ext3
[00:10] <Ben64> but ntfs is a whole lot better than fat and fat32
[00:10] <lucky__> Ben64... i can use ext to share dataa to windows?
[00:10] <Ben64> lucky__: yes
[00:10] <giiker> hi everyone, has any1 used zoneminder before, I can't get it to start
[00:10] <Ben64> http://www.fs-driver.org/
[00:10] <lucky__> and you use that system?
[00:10] <deco> lucky__: what is your native language ? just curious :)
[00:11] <lucky__> italian :° sorry
[00:11] <deco> lucky__: ah hehe i thought so :)
[00:11] <yartiss> Does anyone know how to find the original GID of the admin group?
[00:11] <Ben64> lucky__: my laptop is dual-boot, and windows reads and writes my ext3 partition with no problem
[00:12] <Unislash> Um_cara_qualquer: i've found that the easiest way is to go into synaptic and install compiz config, compiz-fusion, and fusion-icon
[00:12] <lucky__> i try to use ext3 partition so
[00:12] <ericP> whenever i reboot (which is admittedly rare), i end up rmmod'ing pcspkr in order to not jump out of my skin when i e.g. back up past the beginning of a shell prompt
[00:12] <deco> lucky__: il penguino :P i understand italian because i am fluent in spanish too :P
[00:12] <giiker> hi everyone, has any1 used zoneminder before, I can't get it to start
[00:13] <lucky__> ahaha
[00:13] <ericP> what's a nice way to capture that spkr event and make it more pallatable?
[00:13] <soreau> ! compiz | Um_cara_qualquer
[00:13] <lucky__> il pinguino
[00:13] <giiker> i speak spanish but only understandd 25 % of italian, jeje!
[00:13] <Um_cara_qualquer> i know, i already have compiz
[00:13] <deco> giiker: really ? i understand like 70%
[00:13] <deco> :P
[00:13] <dtcrshr> does ubuntu 8 lts has wireless support?
[00:13] <lucky__> che cosa mi passa per la mente ora?
[00:13] <lucky__> :P
[00:13] <giiker> deco: yeap, and my native tongue is spanish
[00:13] <Um_cara_qualquer> the problem is my pc doesn't recognize the video card
[00:13] <deco> giiker: :)
[00:13] <Um_cara_qualquer> ops
[00:13] <Unislash> well, there's your problem :P
[00:14] <soreau> Um_cara_qualquer: WE can help you further in the channel ubottu mentioned
[00:14] <giiker> maybaybe it's because I already speak 2 languages?
[00:14] <giiker> :)
[00:14] <Um_cara_qualquer> it does... but i can't activate it
[00:14] <deco> giiker: i speak 2 languages too :P
[00:14] <giiker> :]
[00:14] <soreau> Can someone tell me how to 'aptitude remove *string*' with wild characters?
[00:14] <Unislash> how do you remove a symbolic link?
[00:14] <deco> giiker: maybe because i studies all the southern european languages a little bit
[00:14] <deco> studied *
[00:15] <giiker> deco: woww!! all souther european, that's why then!

[00:29] <Ben64> Raydiation: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128378
[00:29] <dtcrshr> anyone can help me with my wireless connnection? im just lost. if i got an error i would try to run for it, but it simply DONT connect.... helps appreciated
[00:29] <bigdavejoker> I need some help getting more resolutions availalbe I can't get past 1440 with ATI x1200 Radeon card
[00:30] <bigdavejoker> Unislash what do you mean you have it shared across windows
[00:30] <Raydiation> Ben64: ty
[00:30] <yartiss>  Does anyone know how to find the original GID of the admin group?
[00:30] <giiker> yartiss: do you mean the GID of any group?
[00:30] <test34> Unislash: try : killall firefox
[00:30] <Ben64> Unislash: delete the lock file in the profile folder
[00:30] <Unislash> bigdavejoker: i'm sharing profiles with my windows firefox.
[00:30] <yartiss> giiker: no, the ORIGINAL GID of the admin group
[00:30] <Unislash> ben64: i tried... i see no lock file. parent.lock
[00:31] <yartiss> I thrashed my /etc/group
[00:31] <Unislash> test34: trying that... one sec
[00:31] <bastidrazor> yartiss, 121 is mine.. ubuntu 9.04
[00:31] <Unislash> test34: no process killed
[00:31] <Dr_Willis> willis@cow:~$ grep  admin /etc/group  admin:x:121:willis
[00:31] <jondavis_> how does a hacker know how to get into your pc by knowing what you have
[00:31] <Unislash> it must have to do with firefox not being allowed to access the profile
[00:31] <giiker> mine is 896
[00:31] <yartiss> bastidrazor: they change from person to person
[00:32] <Ben64> admin:x:110:ben64
[00:32] <yartiss> see?  :D
[00:32] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  they see what ya got.. they look for  exploits for that specific os/services
[00:32] <Unislash> i've already tried to chmod 777 my windows disk... no beans....
[00:32] <Ben64> Unislash: mount with user priv's
[00:32] <yartiss> you can't put any GID you want, needs to be the original one from install...
[00:32] <Unislash> ben64: how so?
[00:32] <Dr_Willis> Unislash:  you dont chmod or chown windows filesystems. You mount them with the proper options to set the modes
[00:32] <Ben64> Unislash: modify /etc/fstab
[00:33] <jondavis_> ok how can i be a safer person......dr willis
[00:33] <jondavis_> from a hacker
[00:33] <Unislash> Dr_willis: ah, that'd be the thing then
[00:33] <giiker> jondavis_: shutdown your box ... :]
[00:33] <Unislash> ben64: ok, got fstab open in sudo...
[00:33] <Areyna1976> Good Day
[00:34] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  dont run services you dont need. is the main thing.
[00:34] <stephenesherman> will Update Mgr be offering upgrade to Pidgin 2.6.1? If so, when?
[00:34] <Raydiation> Ben64: do you have this board yourself? the ehternet seems to have problems in jaunty
[00:35] <jondavis_> dr willis how do i know how  to not run service that i dont need
[00:35] <Areyna1976> I have some question about the instalation, first i have install the Windows Vista 64bits, it is posible to instal Ubuntu with out delete the Windows original instal?
[00:35] <jondavis_> i nned someof them
[00:35] <giiker> jondavis_: you shouldd not visitmalicious  websites either, download attachments you do not expect, and the list might go on
[00:36] <Unislash> follow up question: in fstab, what's the gid entry for?
[00:36] <dtcrshr> how do i troubleshoot my wireless connection? i use network manager to connect, but it keeps spinning but just DONT connetc, im lost.
[00:36] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  if you need them.. run them.. if you dont.. then dont..   ubuntu by default is very locked down.  You may want to go read some security related websites for basic information
[00:36] <Supersaiyan_IV> Which is the best distro right now that has good support with recent kernels
[00:36] <Dr_Willis> Unislash:  the default group that ownes the filesystem/files for  the ntfs/vfat entries I belive
[00:37] <Areyna1976> Second, if i install the ubuntu as "inside Windows" can i install MySql?
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> Areyna1976:  if youmean by 'wubi' yes you can.. but I dont reccomend Wubi.
[00:37] <Unislash> Dr_willis: awesome, thanks :)
[00:37] <Supersaiyan_IV> sorry, i need to rephrase that..  Which is the best LIGHTWEIGHT distro right now that has good support with recent kernels
[00:37] <yartiss> Areyna1976: yes, you can install Ubuntu beside Windows, it's called Dual Boot, it uses GRUB, search on it...
[00:37] <jondavis_> but when i was just on here there was some hacker who tould me that i should use a better ips and a lot more
[00:37] <test34> Anyone got the watchport/h temperature/humidity sensor working ? mine gets detected by the kernel, but I can't get any data out of it
[00:38] <stephenesherman> will Update Mgr be offering upgrade to Pidgin 2.6.1? If so, when?
[00:38] <test34> (usb-serial connection
[00:38] <Dr_Willis> Supersaiyan_IV:  define 'liteweight' - Tiny Core Linux  = 10mb + whatever you install.
[00:38] <Areyna1976> Dr_Willis and yartiss thanks. yartiss let me search for it.
[00:38] <giiker> tiny core is awesome!
[00:38] <giiker> so tiny
[00:39] <jondavis_> will yall help me out
[00:39] <giiker> jondavis_: better ips?!, some hacker?!
[00:39] <yartiss> Areyna1976: you are welome.  A word of caution: do a little research on device naming (hard disks)  I lost my Windows because I chose the wrong partition
[00:39] <Bravosierra> ..
[00:39] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  with computer security  you dont watn to be 'vague' and just 'try things' that might make it worse.  learn what you are doing and why.
[00:39] <yartiss> jondavis: there are complete books on security, one can't really answer that question....
[00:39] <jondavis_> well this hacker tould me how was houston texas
[00:40] <Supersaiyan_IV> Dr_Willis, what I have in mind is basically fluxbox with a recent kernel
[00:40] <jondavis_> how did he know where i live
[00:40] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  there are 'geoip' programs that tell you what ips are in what area. thats trivial
[00:40] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  thers a bot in #puppylinux that has the !geoip command
[00:40] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  like that really makes your system insecure? Not really.
[00:40] <libtech> how do i copy and paste on a mac book pro 13 inch running ubuntu?
[00:40] <jondavis_> but i have ubuntu linux9.04
[00:40] <giiker> sXeChris: cinco?what about damn samll linux?
[00:41] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  so what? he saw your IP and looked it up..  os wouldebnt matter.
[00:41] <giiker> Supersaiyan_IV: sXeChris: cinco?what about damn small linux?
[00:41] <giiker> Supersaiyan_IV: what about damn small linux?
[00:41] <Pici> !offtopic
[00:41] <Dr_Willis> Supersaiyan_IV:  Tiny Core can do that., and other tiny distros can all do that..  so go try them.
[00:42] <Supersaiyan_IV> Dr_Willis, giiker, thx for introducing me to a few new names :)
[00:42] <Dr_Willis> Tiny Ubuntu variant - fluxbuntu , or just install fluxbox on ubuntu.
[00:42] <jondavis_> so how can i stop from some one in here who is a hacker  stop geting into my os
[00:42] <bjorkLinux> i evicted gnome off my machine to replace with something minimal
[00:42] <bjorkLinux> and now ubuntu seems upset...
[00:42] <Dr_Willis> Supersaiyan_IV:  go to the 'disrtowatch.com' web site
[00:42] <Supersaiyan_IV> been there
[00:42] <bjorkLinux> it won't run X without hanging.
[00:42] <giiker> Supersaiyan_IV: i qould install them in a VM first!
[00:42] <jondavis_> i need to know
[00:42] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  #1 stop being paranoid. #2 - stop using the useless term 'hacker' , #3 dont use services you dont need. and #4 follow common sence security guidelines.
[00:43] <Areyna1976> ok yartiss, the last for this moment (I hope) i have 2 partitions on the disk (about 190 Gb each), do you recomend to try install in the second partition, but my question is, at the time of instalation, ubunto with kill the actual boot code and replace or i can have a backup?
[00:43] <yartiss> jondavis_ : again, security is a BIG question... go buy a book...
[00:43] <jondavis_> how do i do all that
[00:43] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  you are running ubuntu. that puts you miles above any windows os.
[00:43] <yartiss> www.amazon.com :D
[00:43] <Supersaiyan_IV> jondavis_, you can begin by not troll people here
[00:43] <Supersaiyan_IV> ing*
[00:43] <jondavis_> yes i am run ubuntu linux
[00:43] <giiker> jondavis_: also, you are already much more secure with ubuntu than any windowz box
[00:44] <rafael1> Hi, could anyone explain to me why a ubuntu installation formats the boot partition? I have several distributions installed, a separated partition for /boot and everytime I install ubuntu I loose all my init and configs over there... How can I prevent this from happening?
[00:44] <jondavis_> so how did he this hacker/craker just now got into my os
[00:44] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  i never saw that 'got into my os' statement proven.
[00:44] <rafael1> This happens even if I don't tickle the format box for boot partition. is this a bug?
[00:44] <jondavis_> he touls me a lot of stuff
[00:45] <Dayofswords> i beileve when you installed right at the end, you could go to advanded options and choose to turn off boot loader
[00:45] <giiker> jondavis_: like what kind of stuff?
[00:45] <nefa> hi! how can i see the changes of the packages, when i update on the console?
[00:45] <jondavis_> that he found e plots in my os
[00:45] <jondavis_> and i need to be safer
[00:45] <jondavis_> x plots
[00:45] <giiker> jondavis_: you sound knowledgeable and like trying not knowing about the subject, that is very fishy, if that is what you are doing!
[00:46] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  you are being vague again.    There have been recent kernel updates to fix the common exploits.
[00:46] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  so good luck. Time for you to go read some security web sites i guess.
[00:46] <jondavis_> i did now know about all this untell the hacker/craker tould me all this
[00:46] <giiker> i think he is going to insist
[00:46] <yartiss> jondavis_ : I can tell you that you live in Houston Texas, your internet provider is Bell, and your IP is 69.153.136.12.  I must be a hacker.....
[00:47] <bastidrazor> jondavis_, you're still trolling. just like an hour ago.
[00:47] <Dr_Willis> yartiss:  you are soo leet..
[00:47] <yartiss> or... maybe I just typed whois?  ;)
[00:47] <jondavis_> how do u know about my isp
[00:47] <giiker> jajaja!!
[00:47] <giiker> i knew it
[00:47] <yartiss> I'm a hacker
[00:47] <yartiss> I am emptying your bank account right now
[00:47] <Dr_Willis> jondavis_:  you get that info from the ip.  thats trivial to find.
[00:47] <jondavis_> i am not trolling
[00:47] <Dayofswords> jondavis_: its your whois =p
[00:47] <maco> yartiss: that would make you a cracker, not a hacker
[00:48] <maco> yartiss: please don't misuse the term hacker and give my friends bad names
[00:48] <jondavis_> how do i find all of this
[00:48] <bastidrazor> yartiss, you're a white guy who can type.. cracker
[00:48] <yartiss> Sorry, I meant baker.
[00:48] <giiker> jondavis_: one question, how are you conecting to this channel right now?
[00:48] <maco> jondavis_: type /whois <nick>
[00:48] <jondavis_> i am dsl
[00:49] <maco> jondavis_: if you dont have a cloak, itll show your IP & ISP...just like it showd Grim76's IP & ISP as he /quit
[00:49] <yartiss> so... as I was saying:  Does anyone know how to find the original GID of the admin group?
[00:49] <test34_> yartiss, whats my IP
[00:49] <jondavis_> how do i get a cloak
[00:49] <lstarnes> jondavis_: join #freenode and ask there
[00:49] <maco> jondavis_: ubuntu members get them, and freenode staff can give 'em ot
[00:50] <lstarnes> jondavis_: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks also has info
[00:50] <Stalker`> omg - i flipping love ubuntu
[00:50] <giiker> yartiss: i thought you found it out already, you even thanked someone here
[00:50] <stephenesherman> will Update Mgr be offering upgrade to Pidgin 2.6.1? If so, when?
[00:50] <Stalker`> someone install freenx on ubuntu jaunty and ill give them a free remote desktop on a 100mbit line
[00:50] <Stalker`> :D
[00:50] <yartiss> giiker: no no...  I need to find the ORIGINAL GID
[00:50] <Stalker`> i got it setup, its just busted. and i hvae no time :|
[00:51] <lstarnes> stephenesherman: in which version of ubuntu?
[00:51] <stephenesherman> 9.04
[00:51] <maco> yartiss: i can tell you mine...itd be the same
[00:51] <maco> yartiss: 118
[00:51] <yartiss> maco: no, the admin GID are not the same for everyone
[00:51] <tenach> stephenesherman, add their PPA and it will show up.
[00:52] <maco> yartiss: i thought it was the same on a fresh install..
[00:52] <yartiss> nope....
[00:52] <stephenesherman> tenach, sorry I must be a noob ... pls explain
[00:52] <tenach> stephenesherman, http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/
[00:52] <giiker> yartiss: cat /etc/group | grep admin
[00:52] <tenach> Instructions are there.
[00:52] <yartiss> I already tried 121 (which a lot of people had)
[00:52] <lstarnes> stephenesherman: pidgin 2.5 will be the version in the brepos for ubuntu 9.04
[00:52] <swiftegz> hey i need the my screen resolution fix
[00:52] <yartiss> giiker: not my CURRENT GID, I need the original one
[00:53] <lstarnes> stephenesherman: but it will be patched as necessary to fix bugs and security vulnerabilities
[00:53] <yartiss> my etc/group  was thrashed
[00:53] <stephenesherman> lstarnes, tenach, ... okay ... i see the info on that page
[00:53] <giiker> yartiss: ohhhhhh
[00:53] <RORgasm>  /join #railsbridge
[00:53] <yartiss> giiker: and a simpler way would just be : id    :)
[00:53] <stephenesherman> i'm surprised that releases are not part of update packages
[00:54] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:54] <stephenesherman> maybe Koala will have Pidgin 2.6???
[00:54] <yartiss> I've been looking for this for days now...
[00:54] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:54] <deany> stephenesherman, you can have it too, just add the ppa
[00:54] <lstarnes> stephenesherman: karmic
[00:54] <giiker> yartiss: i remember reading a script somewhere to find GID of admin groups
[00:54] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:54] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:54] <giiker> yartiss: i dont know if that might help though
[00:54] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:55] <FloodBot3> swiftegz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:55] <deany> stephenesherman, I agree, if they have certain packages as "defaults" then maintain them...
[00:55] <joevandyk> a deb package is setup to install stuff to /opt/somedir by default.  is it possible to change where it installs its files?
[00:55] <yartiss> giiker: not if it gives me the current GID :)
[00:55] <stephenesherman> deany, sorry ... but what does 'add the ppa" mean?
[00:55] <dog5point0> hey i need some help
[00:55] <deany> dont just do security fixes.. whats that mean for a version thats 4-5 versions old
[00:55] <giiker> yartiss: did you delete it?
[00:56] <deany> stephenesherman, pidgin.im  add the ppa
[00:56] <ctmjr> !ppa | stephenesherman
[00:56] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:56] <yartiss> giiker: I have worked and re-worked my /etc/group file, so impossible to know anything about original GID  (but it was not deleted, just lost all the users)
[00:56] <dog5point0> i cant install ubuntu it gets to 35% and then fails im funning it off the disc right now
[00:56] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:57] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:57] <Stalker`> anyone good with freenx?
[00:57] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:57] <giiker> yartiss: the script i told you about finds all GIDs then you find any gaps in the group list
[00:57] <ctmjr> !repeat | swiftegz
[00:57] <swiftegz> i need my screen resolution fix
[00:58] <yartiss> giiker: that's what I thought, hence why I say I can't find any original group ID's  ( I changed them trying to fix my problem)
[00:58] <lstarnes> !resolution > stephenesherman
[00:58] <lstarnes> stephenesherman: oops, ignore that
[00:58] <lstarnes> !resolution | swiftegz
[00:58] <yartiss> giiker: thing is, at the beginning, all I knew was that something was broken, so I tried all kinds of things.  NOW I am pretty sure it's because of the GID number
[00:58] <giiker> yartiss: i am going to leave in 5, but I'll see if I find that script, I even ran it in my box just to see the results.
[00:59] <roscoe> is the command to upgrade from Jaunty to karmic "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[00:59] <yartiss> giiker: I already looked at the gaps, no help...
[00:59] <yartiss> I need something that looks elsewhere then /etc/group for that info
[00:59] <giiker> yartiss: dam*
[00:59] <yartiss> giiker:  sigh......
[00:59] <yartiss> :D
[00:59] <giiker> give 3 mins I will look it up
[01:00] <yartiss> dude, if you find it in 3 mins, I'm buying you a pizza
[01:00] <yartiss> I've been looking for days!
[01:00] <ctmjr> roscoe: no it has not been released yet
[01:01] <roscoe> OK thanks what would I use to get the beta that is current
[01:01] <Voss> karmic is still in alpha
[01:01] <EagleScreen> when I install an ubuntu system in a chroot with debootstrap, apt warn me that packages from the Ubuntu archive are unsigned
[01:02] <roscoe> I realize that, it I change the sources list to karmic will that allow me to do it
[01:02] <ctmjr> roscoe: you can check in #ubuntu+1 they might have answers for you
[01:03] <madLyfe> is it possible to mount a win7 share in most recent ubuntu?
[01:03] <roscoe> ctmjr thanks for the pointer
[01:03] <MyWay> hi
[01:03] <MyWay> which is the easier to configure mta?
[01:04] <giiker> yartiss: i wish there was an app to put tags on every file i have. i cant find it sorry
[01:04] <yartiss> giiker: thanks for the effort :)
[01:04] <yartiss> I know, it's a toughy
[01:05] <yartiss> I REFUSE to re-install my system because I can't find a number!
[01:06] <giiker> yartiss: np
[01:06] <pccc> Hey, what partition table type should I put on my drive for ubuntu? (msdos,aix,amiga,bsd,dvh,gpt,mac,pc98,sun,loop)
[01:08] <yartiss> back to the drawing board....
[01:08] <yartiss>  Does anyone know how to find the original GID of the admin group?
[01:08] <J-_> Is aptitude dist-upgrade the same as apt-get upgrade?
[01:08] <navatwo> okay, so this is spammed into my window when I go into the terminals through ctrl + f2 (forget what they are called.) emask 0x10 sact 0x0 sErr 0x4000000 action oxe frozen. Anyone know what this means, and how to avoid it. It stops me from running "shutdown -r" even. Just spams it in six different sections on my screen. Its not a command, so pressing ctrl+c to stop it did not work. Anyone have any ideas? Google returned no answers.
[01:09] <swiftegz> resolution still not working
[01:09] <lstarnes> yartiss: assuming that I read the postinst script for the sudo package correctly, the GID is most likely 27
[01:09] <bastidrazor> yartiss, try asking in ubuntu-offtopic.. honest though. they know a far bit. plus it can't hurt to get more people to see your issue
[01:09] <giiker> yartiss: i think I read it here: http://books.google.com/books?id=Df7P1WyG87sC&printsec=frontcover&dq=cool+shell+scripts#v=onepage&q=&f=false
[01:09] <swiftegz> resolution still not working on my dv6000
[01:09] <giiker> yartiss: i am not sure but thats the best i can do now!
[01:09] <giiker> bye bye everyone, going to watch district 9...
[01:10] <lstarnes> yartiss: for me, the admin group is GID 109
[01:10] <yartiss> istarnes: thanks, but from what I read, it should be over 100, Debian doesn't use the admin group...
[01:10] <Supersaiyan_IV> giiker, in the end i chose puppylinux, it was most lightweight bzw most recent kernel
[01:10] <yartiss> bastidrazor: thanks, I will try that too :)
[01:10] <K1LL9> i need help with ubuntu, not been able to mount sdb1
[01:10] <yartiss> giiker: thanks a lot, have a great time at the movie :)
[01:11] <K1LL9> sdb1 is an external hard drive
[01:11] <K1LL9> and it wont mount, can someone help me
[01:11] <giiker> Supersaiyan_IV: good choice, i used it on a laptop that had a 600 mhz cpu, so fast puppy!, good luck
[01:11] <lstarnes> K1LL9: what happens when you try to mount it manually?
[01:12] <K1LL9> lstarnes, nothing, it does nothing
[01:12] <K1LL9> i unmounted it using fdisk
[01:12] <K1LL9> but when i go to mount it again, it does nothing
[01:12] <RyanT50001> is there a way to change the resolution of the "New Login in a Window" window?
[01:12] <lstarnes> K1LL9: it doesn't mount at all?
[01:12] <K1LL9> nope
[01:13] <lstarnes> K1LL9: check the output of dmesg
[01:13] <K1LL9> dmesg?
[01:13] <K1LL9> im not to good with ubuntu, so you may have to help me, sorry
[01:13] <lstarnes> K1LL9: dmesg is a command-line tool for viewing one of the system log
[01:13] <lstarnes> +s
[01:15] <innomen> hey guys is there an app i can use to make an ubuntu install cd with my current selection of packages and sources already built in? (like nlite for windows)
[01:15] <ctmjr> !clone | innomen
[01:15] <gaffo_laptop> hello, had a question. I'm trying out 9.10 and I have a (non-ubuntu) deb that is failing. Is there a way to file that as a bug. apport won't file it.

[01:16] <IdleOne> innomen, look at the remaster factoid
[01:16] <lstarnes> K1LL9: as an ext3 partition
[01:16] <bastidrazor> innomen, remastering the cd would be the easiest way
[01:17] <zruty> Isn't that called slipstreaming?innomen >
[01:17] <TheK3vin> Hey, I was trying to edit xorg.conf for the Radeon driver and I got an error, and I had to go into low-graphics mode (Don't recall exactly what it's called).  I posted my xorg.conf and some other details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1244747

[01:38] <NauTiluS1> hi
[01:39] <pink_> =D  how is everyone?
[01:39] <pragmatic> hi all
[01:39] <TheFunkbomb> quick question.  My computer is showing a port scan was done on me.  How can I figure out who did it?
[01:39] <NauTiluS1> eating :P
[01:39] <pink_> :( I wanna eat
[01:39] <pink_> dinner so far ... away
[01:39] <pragmatic> what is does it mean when something is a transitional package?
[01:39] <NauTiluS1> ;)
[01:40] <C-S-B> do you have to direct a programs output for cron to run it?
[01:40] <pink_> not that I know of
[01:41] <pink_> Anyone have any idea why my controller would be going CRAZY? all the buttons cause joystick movement in random directions @_@
[01:41] <pragmatic> i.e. deluge vs. deluge-torrent
[01:41] <matt777> hey guys i just installed jaunty 9.04 and my sound is not working can someone help me fix it please
[01:41] <pragmatic> deluge-torrent being a transitional package
[01:42] <lstarnes> pragmatic: it's a package that is meant to be replaced by a new package
[01:42] <innomen> How would i export my synaptic package manager list in such a way that UCK package manager can see and read it? ("saving markings" does not work)
[01:42] <inspiron_> hi there
[01:42] <pragmatic> ohh thanks lstarnes
[01:43] <pragmatic> so is it safe to assume that deluge is the replacement for deluge-torrent?
[01:43] <inspiron_> need help here,,,, somebody there??'ç
[01:43] <C-S-B> answered my own question...
[01:43] <lstarnes> pragmatic: probably
[01:43] <pragmatic> cool
[01:43] <innomen> !question
[01:44] <innomen> does anyone here ahve experiance with the uck?
[01:44] <inspiron_> ehh,,,, i have truble whit my resolution... i cant get a default
[01:44] <Redeuxx> how do i search for an installed package using apt?
[01:44] <innomen> !resolution
[01:45] <oldude67> Redeuxx, try apt-cache
[01:45] <innomen> what does save markings mean in synaptic package manager?
[01:45] <C-S-B> my issue still remains that i cant run crontab as a user...
[01:45] <Redeuxx> i've used the command before and I'm pretty sure it wasn't apt-cache
[01:46] <stercor> I'm tracking down the reason that Evolution won't send messages (it receives fine).  Wireshark reports bad checksums (along with the correct value) in the packets.  Where is this checksum calculated?
[01:46] <inspiron_> the problem is that i set  1280 x1024 n when i restart get back to 1600x1200
[01:47] <nefa> Redeuxx: dpkg -l "*name*"
[01:47] <mykas0> hi everyone
[01:47] <ctmjr> Redeuxx: how much info you looking for dpkg -l or dpkg -L plus package name will give you some
[01:47] <Redeuxx> ahh yes, thanks!
[01:47] <dividebyzer01> how do i update java.. I dont think its working
[01:47] <dtcrshr> is it possible to use flash with oss? iv followed some tutorials on the web but none worked. the normal flash from adobe works fine, with no sound. i use ubuntu 8.04 64
[01:47] <pink_> apt-cache pkgnames
[01:47] <Redeuxx> I just needed to find out which java was installed, so I'm guessing dpkg -l *java* would work
[01:47] <mykas0> I kinda need your help; a friend of mine is trying to install ubuntu, but apparently some sectors of her hard drive are damaged, is it still possible for her to install the OS in the other ones?
[01:47] <Redeuxx> thanks again
[01:48] <durando> i am trying to perminatly mount my /dev/sdb1 to /home/durando/Videos/Television\ Series/ but cant seem to make it work
[01:48] <dividebyzer01> anybody?
[01:48] <icarus> for some reason vuze will not start what should i do?
[01:48] <n8tuser> durando you may have to use the UID instead of the /dev/sdb1
[01:49] <durando> n8tuser: can you please explain fully how i can do this?
[01:49] <durando> i already did it with UUID
[01:49] <n8tuser> mykas0-> it is possible, is the disk just for play or production ?
[01:49] <pink_> dividebyzer01> http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp  get the latest from there
[01:49] <durando> UUID=038666ad-b094-4fc8-ac69-b533e1d79ec0 /home/durando/Videos/Television\ Series/ ext4    defaults 0 0
[01:49] <mykas0> n8tuser, it's a disk for personal use only, not an enterprise one
[01:49] <durando> is what i put into my fstab and its still not working
[01:50] <pink_> can anyone name an alternative to jscalibrator ?
[01:50] <dividebyzer01> how do I update java?

[02:09] <swiftegz> it was something like  sudo   /etc/init.d.dm/   restart
[02:09] <samitheberber> swiftegz: you can't select it with gui tools?

[02:10] <Ben64> is that what you're looking for?
[02:10] <Ben64> alux: you try restarting?
[02:10] <alux> yep :(
[02:10] <swiftegz> yea
[02:10] <swiftegz> thnx
[02:11] <Ben64> alux: starts up read only??
[02:11] <swiftegz> lets see what happens
[02:11] <alux> yeah
[02:11] <Ben64> alux: put in ubuntu cd, unmount everything, run fsck on your root partition
[02:11] <alux> it's read only on this install disk, too
[02:11] <upgrdman> 9.04 = jaunty?
[02:11] <Ben64> upgrdman: believe so
[02:11] <Ben64> !jaunty
[02:12] <upgrdman> thanks
[02:12] <alux> one sec, i'm sure I ran fsck but i'll give it a go :D
[02:12] <Ben64> alux: but you can't run fsck on a mounted partition
[02:12] <Ben64> and make sure you set the options of fsck to actually make changes
[02:12] <alux> yeah, i'm on my install disk :P
[02:13] <alux>  /dev/sda1 contains a file system with errors, check forced.
[02:13] <alux> hmm, seems to be doing more this time than it did last time :P

[02:38] <ConstantineXVI> How difficult is Lua to learn for a non-programmer?
[02:38] <NewbieX> Hello everybody
[02:38] <lstarnes> Um_cara_qualquer: AMD64 is 64-bit
[02:38] <cwillu> Um_cara_qualquer, on is 64bit, the other isn't
[02:39] <Um_cara_qualquer> hmm
[02:39] <neil_d> Um_cara_qualquer: i386 is for 32 bit processors, AMD64 is for 64bit AMD processors
[02:39] <cwillu> ConstantineXVI, generally if you're using lua, the things that make programming really complicated have already been taken care of
[02:39] <Um_cara_qualquer> how do i know which one is my pc?
[02:39] <lstarnes> Um_cara_qualquer: uname -m
[02:39] <cwillu> ConstantineXVI, it's generally quite straightforward

[02:41] <lstarnes> kismet: I don't see anything wrong with having it

[02:49] <C-S-B> Pici: as a direct result of not being able to my own jobs, nope.
[02:49] <Pici> C-S-B: Can you delete the file using sudo and then drop back to your own user's account and try crontab -e again?
[02:50] <neil_d> Spudster: what are the permissions of the file.
[02:50] <digital1>  lstarnes i have problem with geforce 6600......either?

[03:31] <innomen> also i want to remove some packages, like the wif manager for exaple i have replaced it
[03:31] <innomen> wifi*
[03:31] <guest1> how can i make netbook remix more happy?
[03:31] <C-S-B> guest1: with themes under 'appearance'
[03:31] <rafael> dont you have in root an option similar to errors=remount-read-only?
[03:31] <innomen> reconstructor is the closest thing but it's support chan has a whopping 3 people in it
[03:31] <innomen> and it only knows how to add packages
[03:31] <innomen> and then only to the alternate
[03:32] <frostbite7> it gave me nothing
[03:32] <guest1> i want my netbook remix to be more colorful. like a new theme or something. how do i change it?
[03:33] <C-S-B> innomen: i like where you're going... the only reason I havent formatted this machine and started over is purely cos I need it configured as it is and dont wat the hassle of setting it to this point again...
[03:33] <rizoma1> i cant believe it i've renamed test.RPM to test.rpm and now it work oh my god
[03:33] <rafael> i have installed Ubuntu in a USB-stick, it is slowly for disk operations
[03:33] <mividaendigital> try lspci alone, then look for something like network, ethernet, wireless, etc.
[03:33] <C-S-B> guest1: like I said, system, preferences, appearance
[03:34] <_cb> Can I deploy noMachine on an Ubuntu Server or do I need to deploy it on Ubuntu desktop?
[03:34] <innomen> C-S-B, remastersys seems designed expressly for that but its old and i cant get it installed, i am shocked that there isn't a more robust developed option for this, i mean what if i wanted to deploy ubunt in a lab of 50 machines? am i seriously expected to go do this package read write for each machine?
[03:34] <hassanakevazir> frostbite7, sudo apt-get install pastebinit && lspci | pastebinit
[03:34] <hassanakevazir> then paste the URL here
[03:35] <C-S-B> innomen: true, also that doesnt cater for packages not in the repositry does it?
[03:35] <innomen> C-S-B, nope, is there anything liek ghost for ubuntu?
[03:35] <C-S-B> ghost? try clonezilla?
[03:35] <IdleOne> !automate
[03:35] <innomen> C-S-B, i mean i could always ghost the drive, delete my home folder and then deploy that way
[03:35] <dre360> hey all i am hak5ing it write now i will be back in a min
[03:36] <innomen> C-S-B, but thats just xerox, i kind want to rebuild from a given list of packages and sources

[03:37] <innomen> C-S-B, maybe you can take a look at remastersys ?
[03:38] <dre360> montree hak5.org you will see
[03:38] <xsebsx> hello, i recently installed kubuntu, my laptop c omes with a dvd player and burner yet i am having trouble reading some vcd format dvd any help much appreciated
[03:38] <hassanakevazir> frostbite7, no man, the one last one, the pastebinit URL
[03:38] <dre360> monTree its hak5
[03:38] <C-S-B> innomen: I might when i get time. Ive been planning on formatting this machine and Ive been putting it off for karmic
[03:38] <Ben64> xsebsx: try playing them in mplayer
[03:38] <Um_cara_qualquer> a massage apeears when i try to set extra efects: Can not set visual effects. How can i fix it?
[03:38] <dre360> monTree or try revision3
[03:38] <innomen> C-S-B, thats another scarey thing, once it comes time to update it really looks like i'm just going to have to start over from scratch'
[03:39] <frostbite7> it didnt give me ant other
[03:39] <C-S-B> innomen: ouch...
[03:39] <madLyfe> when i try to connect to the workgroup it says unable to mount location: failed to retrieve share list from server...
[03:39] <innomen> C-S-B, well i mean ghost wont help me, and there apears ot be no real way to migrate package and source choices or downloads
[03:39] <hassanakevazir> frostbite7, the last URL, http://pastebin.com/###### , nothing like that there?
[03:40] <C-S-B> innomen: if it helps, you can create a local network mirror of packages and install them on your machines from there. that wil stop a whole world of bandwith usuage
[03:40] <ipatrol_> torrent.ubuntu.com ?
[03:40] <Ben64> innomen: install ubuntu, get all packages you want, make image of install
[03:40] <innomen> C-S-B, i dont even know where the packages are stored
[03:40] <Ben64> copy image to whoever's computer, change their username, and done
[03:41] <monTree> dre360, try revision 3 of what at hack5.org?
[03:41] <juxta> hmm, someone in this channel has a bot running which tries to brute force any hosts which connect and have an FTP server running
[03:41] <innomen> Ben64, ok, how?
[03:41] <Ben64> innomen: norton ghost can do the imagine
[03:41] <Ben64> imaging*
[03:41] <frostbite7> (from .../pastebinit_0.11.2-0ubuntu1_all.deb) ...
[03:41] <Ben64> juxta: what ip?
[03:41] <C-S-B> monTree: hak5 is an internet tv show centred on 'hacking' revision 3 is the online 'tv channel'
[03:41] <juxta> Ben64: the user is test2Rohff114, ip is 41.105.30.151
[03:42] <innomen> Ben64, you probabaly didnt catch it in the scroll but thats not going to help, i dont want a bit for bit duplicate of my machine, i want a depersonalized version, i want just packages and sources and downloaded debs
[03:42] <dre360> monTree just go to hak5.org and checkout the cool it tricks
[03:42] <Ben64> innomen: all you have to do is change the username once you copy image, and then it's all good
[03:42] <C-S-B> innomen: you need suse studio :)
[03:42] <monTree> dre360, i am... dont see revision 3 or tv channel
[03:42] <innomen> Ben64, i want to make an install of ubuntu for my family where i ahve alreayd done the work
[03:42] <monTree> C-S-B, ok
[03:43] <IdleOne> juxta, join #ubuntu-ops and let someone there know so they can take care of the issue please
[03:43] <Ben64> innomen: i know, and I'm telling you an option
[03:43] <hassanakevazir> frostbite7, just do : lspci, and see if anywhere it mentions a network card or a wireless card, then post that line here
[03:43] <juxta> IdleOne, will do
[03:43] <dre360> monTree http://revision3.com/
[03:44] <frostbite7> hey i appreciate your help and patience
[03:44] <wrapster> dre360: so your telling me to rm -rf the .deb files and try a reboot? praying that sunwspro will actually be installed
[03:44] <ben64_> now let's see if i get ftp brute-forced
[03:44] <innomen> ben64 you keep talking like i knopw how to do these things "change use name" for example, what rename my home folder? i dont want them to have my home folder at all :P
[03:44] <Ben64> innomen: menu -> system -> users and groups?
[03:44] <dre360> wrapster some what so
[03:45] <wrapster> ok... pray for me.. I dont want to sit idle for another 12hrs
[03:45] <innomen> ben64: username is greyed out
[03:45] <C-S-B> innomen: you need to 'unlock'
[03:45] <Ben64> on their computer you could add a user for them, log into it, and delete your username
[03:45] <innomen> ahhhh
[03:45] <Ben64> innomen: OR, you can just install the packages at their house
[03:46] <Ben64> ubuntu doesn't really take long to install
[03:46] <innomen> Ben64, well where would i get the packages? where are they on this machine? hwo do i move them? not everything is in the repos
[03:46] <innomen> but i see the delete user thing thats very helpful
[03:46] <Ben64> where did you get packages that aren't in repo?
[03:46] <hassanakevazir> madLyfe, see if this thread helps: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1169149 , used it once before... not sure thought
[03:46] <dre360> wrapster 'but' pray and use apt-get autoremove then use the synaptic you may get a error pakage missing or broken to  fix but you are good
[03:46] <innomen> ben64, the internet
[03:46] <Ben64> helpful
[03:47] <dre360> wrapster let me know if it works
[03:47] <innomen> ben64, about as helpful as the question, what was i supposed ot spit out 50 urls from memory?
[03:47] <innomen> one of them i had to compile with much help from this channel :)
[03:47] <frostbite7> i dont see anything that mentions anuthing about a wireless card or network
[03:47] <Ben64> innomen: why do your family members need programs you need to compile to work?
[03:47] <C-S-B> innomen: script it.
[03:47] <_cb> Can I deploy noMachine  on an Ubuntu Server or do I need to deploy it on Ubuntu desktop. I am thinking desktop but not sure
[03:48] <Ben64> Aug 19 21:44:45 ben64 sshd[2646]: Failed password for root from 41.105.30.151 port 46137 ssh2
[03:48] <mykas0> hi everyone
[03:48] <innomen> Ben64, why because projectm is pretty?
[03:48] <Ben64> not only that, but he is trying to force into my ssh
[03:48] <dre360> wrapster ONLY rm the files thatttt are giving trouble
[03:48] <dre360> wrapster no more
[03:48] <mykas0> my friend wants to install Windows XP and Ubuntu as a dualboot system, is there any correct order for doing so?
[03:48] <IdleOne> Ben64, could you go to #ubuntu-ops and comfirm
[03:48] <Ben64> juxta: thanks for the info on this brute-forcer dude
[03:48] <Ben64> IdleOne: oh yeah, doing that now
[03:48] <wrapster> dre360: well the lock issue was resolved after a reboot...
[03:48] <wrapster> thanks
[03:48] <jdsandeson> ? how big a machien do i need to serve 20 thin clients?
[03:49] <innomen> hehe this is just one of those defensive things i'm going to have to wait for, eventually enough people will use ubuntu in a professional setting that this sort of thing will be demanded, like nlite, it looks like reconstructor will eventually turn into the solution for this issue, for now it dosent exist
[03:49] <juxta> no problems Ben64
[03:49] <wrapster> but i didnt quite get the rm thing... could you please elaborate?
[03:49] <_cb> jdsandeson what are you using to server the thin clients? (LTSP? NoMachine?)
[03:49] <juxta> he was here yesterday too, but on a different IP
[03:49] <Ben64> juxta: those people piss me off
[03:50] <Ben64> i've gotten quite good at emailing abuse@ their ips
[03:50] <frostbite7> hassanakevazir?
[03:50] <Ben64> isp's*; my server gets bombarded often
[03:50] <frostbite7> ???
[03:50] <hassanakevazir> frostbite7, you need to find the model of the wireless card to find help, so find its box, or boot into windows and look into hardware manager, but before that, try this command: iwconfig
[03:50] <dre360> wrapster good know use open synaptic you may get a error but you are okay just reload your package
[03:50] <jdsandeson> just going tu use ubuntu and the server will allow the cliants to remotely logg in with a desktop
[03:51] <jacak> hi ubuntu.  if my device shows up in aplay -l, is it good to go?
[03:51] <_cb> jdsandeson using xwindows?
[03:51] <dre360> wrapster and remove the broken package if it is still there
[03:51] <innomen> LEts see if i can do this just by playing with the contents of the install iso, where are all my packages kept?
[03:51] <soreau> jacak: Is it not working?
[03:51] <slestak_> whassup guys.  im about to pull an hd from an older laptop and do an ubuntu minimal install.  put the drive back into the old lifebook and resume for the dl finish up
[03:51] <jdsandeson> yes seems to take about 200 meg of ram per in the test
[03:51] <hassanakevazir> mykas0, yes, first install XP, then Ububntu
[03:52] <dre360> wrapster let me know how it's going
[03:52] <innomen> or better yet where can i find a general break down of what the various folders do in ubuntu?
[03:52] <slestak_> ive dome similar type installs with gentoo back in the day, but id really like to kit this out with ubuntu for the laptops owner
[03:52] <_cb> jdsandeson do you have a background in thin client like terminal services or Citrix?
[03:52] <jacak> no, and i wasn't sure when searching the forums what to do.  it shows up in aplay -l, and i've messed with alsamixer but no go
[03:53] <kamokow> I need to use a backup disk (the one that restores your computer to factory defaults) but I just got my ubuntu the way i like it. Is there anyway to keep it from being affected from the restore disc?
[03:53] <jdsandeson> no work flunked a windows licencing audit and i am trying to come up with a temporary set up
[03:53] <jdsandeson> based on what i do here at home
[03:53] <soreau> jacak: Has it ever worked ?
[03:53] <frostbite7> it says no wireless extentions
[03:53] <ae86> is people.ubuntu.com still offering space to newly registered users?
[03:54] <madLyfe> ubuntu fails to retrieve share list from my win 7 box..
[03:54] <jacak> it did on hardy heron without me configuring anything.  I just reinstalled 9.04 today
[03:54] <frostbite7> its an internal wireless card
[03:54] <jacak> also, i've noticed sometimes subdevices is 0/1, and sometimes 1/1
[03:54] <kamokow> wait, nevermind i have an idea ^_^
[03:54] <kismet> hey ...
[03:54] <soreau> ! audio | jacak
[03:54] <kismet> i am still trying to compile my kernel
[03:55] <kismet> could anyone help me out
[03:55] <innomen> C-S-B, thanks for your help, i'll let you know if i find a realistic solution. :)
[03:55] <kismet> i tried the following command fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-phc001 kernel-image kernel-headers and it says /usr/bin/fakeroot: line 176: make-kpkg: command not found
[03:55] <jacak> well i have hda nvidia alsa mixer
[03:56] <dre360> kismet got to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[03:56] <soreau> kismet: Why are you trying to compile the kernel?
[03:57] <kismet> soreau:  because i would like to undervolt my cpu core
[03:57] <dre360> kismet follow the steps and you are good after 2 hours of compiling
[03:57] <Ben64> kismet: you should be able to do that through your bios?
[03:58] <frostbite7> it says no wireless extentions and i have an internal card
[03:58] <kismet> ben64 on my leptop it is not possible.... i didn't found a menu for that
[03:58] <hassanakevazir> frostbite7, we need the exact name, since nothing shows up, Ubuntu is not recognizing your card at all. Go to windows, then in control panel> system > hardware > hardware manager. then see what it says for your wireless card. it works on windows right? or you can open the case and read the model off the card itself. then google "Ubuntu <card name>" and see what comes up
[03:58] <soreau> ! who frostbite7
[03:58] <Ben64> kismet: why would you want to undervolt it anyway? could cause issues
[03:58] <soreau> ! who | frostbite7
[03:58] <kismet> ben64 to increase my battery life of my leptop
[03:59] <sdfg> ):
[03:59] <frostbite7> lol okay cool
[03:59] <Ben64> kismet: cpu is actually a very tiny chunk of battery life, screen backlight is the most
[03:59] <jdsandeson> ?how many users can log in to one machien via XDMCP at one time?
[03:59] <frostbite7> hassanakevazir thanks
[04:00] <hassanakevazir> frostbite7, np
[04:00] <kismet> Ben64: in windows without undervolting i have a 1:55 battery life and with undervolting i had a 2:20-2:30
[04:00] <biovore> jdsandeson: a crap load..  more then 1000
[04:00] <jdsandeson> cool then it should work
[04:00] <matt777> hey guys I am having a sound promlem with 9.04 can anyone help me? please

[04:02] <hassanakevazir> ipatrol, system > preferences > remote desktop ?
[04:02] <jacak> soreau: if my device shows up in aplay -l and lspci -vv, should i be ok?

[04:04] <craCkpot> anyone have experience setting up ubuntu to recognize an already existing RAID0 array?
[04:05] <ipatrol> hassanakevazir: Remind me of that in the morning?
[04:05] <ectospasm> If I want a command ("date >> /var/log/uptime") to run right before I reboot or halt, how do I get this to work?  I tried adding the command to do_stop in both /etc/init.d/reboot and /etc/init.d/halt, but when I went to the GNOME session menu and chose "Restart...", /var/log/uptime had not been created (I have not tested the halt functionality).  How do I get this working?
[04:06] <matt777> dre do you have any ideas?
[04:06] <hassanakevazir> ipatrol, i don't understand.
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> matt777: well what do you need help w/?
[04:06] <hassanakevazir> matt777, please describe the problem in full detail
[04:06] <hassanakevazir> !ask
[04:07] <_cb> jdsandeson if you are serious about thin client on linux you may want to look at noMachine http://www.nomachine.com/ I test drove gimp from windows and I think it was as fast or faster than Citrix. Am trying to find more about it.
[04:07] <cplx_> anyone here pretty clued up with proxypass directives in apache?

[04:08] <null> Question:  I need to start backing up files to DVD's, does anyone know of any scripts/software to keep track of what is burned onto what DVD?
[04:08] <craCkpot> i have a raid0 array of 2 250gb discs setup and is formatted NTFS, generally used by windows, but I would like for linux to be able to use it as well.  the raid is setup via nvidia's MediaShield and set to RAID in BIOS.
[04:09] <dre360> matt777 got to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 this guide should help
[04:09] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[04:09] <matt777> hassanakevazir, I installed 9.04 today and my sound wont work, not online, or on my local system in media player the bar wont even move,  and when i try to test for sound i hear nothing
[04:09] <|sanchez|> craCkpot: gotta redo entire configuration
[04:09] <|sanchez|> with raid setup both drives are in use and unless you add another physical drive you cannot
[04:10] <craCkpot> meaning i would have to rebuild the array and basically lose everything?
[04:10] <|sanchez|> you could back it up elsewhere
[04:10] <|sanchez|> but you would have to rebuild it
[04:10] <craCkpot> meh screw that
[04:10] <cplx_> Hi guys, I have an apache config.. multiple vhosts etc.. I have a section here that doesn't seem to be working - Proxypass etc doesnt look to be working, http://inetpro.org/pastebin/1887/
[04:10] <ShapeShifter499> I have a PowerBook G4 (ppc arch) with ubuntu 9.04 and I want to run a second life environment
[04:10] <|sanchez|> as far as i know
[04:10] <craCkpot> okay, good info, thank you
[04:10] <ShapeShifter499> how?
[04:10] <|sanchez|> although you might be able to try to resize the ntfs partition
[04:10] <|sanchez|> if you can resize it
[04:11] <hassanakevazir> matt777, what does this say in terminal: lspci | grep Audio
[04:11] <|sanchez|> you very well might be able to continue with the raid on both drives
[04:11] <craCkpot> basically i want to try to play wow on my linux install
[04:11] <|sanchez|> virtualize
[04:11] <|sanchez|> if thats all
[04:11] <|sanchez|> be much easier
[04:11] <craCkpot> wow is currently installed on my raid array, i suppose i can move it to another hdd
[04:11] <madLyfe> anyone here good with win shares?
[04:11] <Ben64> |sanchez|: i think he just wants to access it, not modify the filesystems
[04:11] <|sanchez|> ah
[04:11] <|sanchez|> i see
[04:11] <craCkpot> yeah i just want to be able to use it like i can with my other ntfs hdd (has vista on it)
[04:12] <Ben64> i don't know much about raid in linux, but it should be as easy as just mounting it
[04:12] <matt777> hassanakevazir, it says 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03
[04:12] <Ben64> not sure what device it would be under though
[04:12] <craCkpot> well i can't mount it
[04:12] <craCkpot> fdisk -l sees them as 2 different drives
[04:13] <craCkpot> /dev/sdc and /dec/sdd
[04:13] <Ben64> but shouldn't the motherboard be creating another device?
[04:13] <ShapeShifter499> well?
[04:13] <MadGirl> well is, like, there a 4.3 out?
[04:13] <craCkpot> the array is there
[04:13] <craCkpot> and is healthy according to my pre-os boot screen
[04:14] <craCkpot> and obviously windows can see/use the array
[04:14] <craCkpot> i guess i need a driver of some sort so linux can see it
[04:14] <ramiro> in apt-get, how do I force download of a package I already have installed?
[04:14] <ramiro> (I want the exact same .deb file)
[04:14] <ctmjr> !raid | craCkpot it might help am not sure
[04:15] <craCkpot> i wonder why my googling didn't bring me to those pages...thanks ctmjr

[04:22] <Revolution> hi
[04:22] <histo> Is there a way to tell which nvidia-glx-1xx file I need for my card?
[04:22] <Dr[E]aM> google
[04:23] <Revolution> does it not do that auto?
[04:23] <histo> This install just has xorg no gnome or any of hte extras. The card is a GeForce FX 5200
[04:23] <guest1> how do i change the theme in netbook remix?
[04:23] <xphill64x> histo: Have you tried System > Administration > Restricted Drivers
[04:23] <matt777> hassanakevazir, it didnt work :(
[04:23] <histo> xphill64x: again I don't have gnome installed just xorg
[04:24] <kbp> After I typed gksudo/sudo gedit, it opens gedit but the terminal cannot be used anymore (until gedit close), is there anyway to use that terminal but with gedit still running ? (gedit is just an example)

[04:24] <xphill64x> kbp: without the question mark :)
[04:25] <xphill64x> histo: Why is that? Did you uninstall gnome or is it just not running?

[04:26] <dre360> ander_pl  ls -l
[04:26] <Cyber-Dogg> I have setup /etc/network/interfaces
[04:26] <histo> xphill64x: No i'm not using gnome just X11
[04:26] <histo> xphill64x: I found it I think it needs 173
[04:26] <Cyber-Dogg> and then /etc/init.d/networking restart
[04:26] <edbian> andre_pl_: "sudo chmod +x <file>" will make it executable by everybody
[04:26] <Cyber-Dogg> it says that it is sending out dhcp requests but it never gets a response back
[04:26] <xphill64x> histo: Cool, sorry I couldn't be more help, I'm still curious why no window manager xD
[04:26] <Cyber-Dogg> I'm using SPA on it
[04:26] <Cyber-Dogg> WPA
[04:27] <Cyber-Dogg> so I'm guessing that something isn't setup right and it can't connect
[04:27] <xphill64x> Cyber-Dogg: And you've checked that there is no Wireless Access List on the router right? (Mac Filtering?)
[04:27] <Cyber-Dogg> right
[04:27] <dre360> andre_pl and you will see the owner root group root > -rwx rwx rwx  1 owner 2 is group and 3 is other
[04:27] <xphill64x> (10:22:08 PM) xphill64x: Hello, Ubuntu isn't recognizing my touchpad, here's some output from cat /proc/bus/input/devices http://pastebin.com/m49f9de8
[04:28] <hassanakevazir> matt777, search around with "82801I" see what you can find
[04:28] <xphill64x> Cyber-Dogg: Hmm, I had wireless problems the other day, do you know what wireless card you have? Or you could try connecting to unsecured networks, see if it works?
[04:29] <Cyber-Dogg> it's a BCM4306
[04:29] <Cyber-Dogg> rev 03
[04:29] <Cyber-Dogg> no unsecured networks available
[04:29] <Moult> what kernel does the latest stable ubuntu (jaunty) run on?
[04:30] <slestak_> check the packages.ubuntu site?  the kernel is a package liek al others
[04:30] <hassanakevazir> kbp, try: "gksudo gedit &" , wait for it to load, then go back to the terminal and press enter
[04:30] <Ben64> Moult: are you on jaunty?
[04:31] <Moult> Ben64: if i was, i could've easily checked myself :)
[04:31] <ike_> hey ppl how much do u recommend to upgrade gnome 2.24 to gnome 2.26 in intrepid (ignoring the option to upgrade to jaunty)
[04:31] <Ben64> Moult: yep, but not everyone knows that
[04:31] <Moult> Ben64: ok ;)
[04:31] <_cb> Can I deploy FreeNx  on an Ubuntu Server or do I need to deploy it on Ubuntu desktop. I am thinking desktop but not sure
[04:31] <ike_> is there any repositories
[04:32] <xphill64x> Cyber-Dogg: That sucks, I can't really help you, wireless isn't my thing. I was just  covering the idiot bases. :D
[04:33] <ctmjr> Cyber-Dogg: iwlist wlan0 scan find your access point?
[04:33] <Cyber-Dogg> broadcast isn't on
[04:33] <Cyber-Dogg> no scan results
[04:34] <craCkpot> it seems the package dmraid can view any raids setup by nvraid (nvidia's raid controller), which is what setup my raid array
[04:34] <Terabyte> hi
[04:34] <mramosy> Hola
[04:34] <ctmjr> Cyber-Dogg: but the drivers for it are loaded right?
[04:35] <craCkpot> it will let me mount the array and use it as normal, according to my research
[04:35] <Terabyte> i'm wondering what's easier to transfer a file over a network, connect to a share on windows, or create a share on linux (file going from windows to linux)
[04:35] <Cyber-Dogg> as far as I know yes
[04:35] <Cyber-Dogg> I installed b43-fwcutter
[04:35] <Cyber-Dogg> and now I can successfully run ifconfig wlan0 up
[04:35] <|sanchez|> Terabyte: alldepends on who and how much they know about either
[04:35] <|sanchez|> either is a google tutorial away
[04:35] <dre360> Cyber-
[04:36] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg bt3 u say
[04:36] <Cyber-Dogg> b43
[04:36] <Terabyte> |sanchez|: well i know a lot about windows, but either way, linux is making it awkward, since i either have to setup a share on linux, or connect to a windows share from linux, now which is the easiest to do?
[04:36] <dre360> Cyber-dogg what is your prob agian
[04:37] <Cyber-Dogg> it just doesn't seem to associate with the access point
[04:37] <Cyber-Dogg> I know the card is good
[04:37] <Cyber-Dogg> I know everything on the access point is good as far as setup is concerned
[04:37] <ike_> do yo know the name of the AP ?
[04:37] <Cyber-Dogg> I used wpa_passphrase to generate out the key
[04:37] <Cyber-Dogg> yes
[04:37] <DJAshnar> I have an AMD Kuma core 2.7ghz PC with 4GB of ram and a Radeon 3870 and SB XFi Xtreme Gamer card.  Would I run into any issues installing Ubuntu or ubuntu studio on it?
[04:37] <ipatrol> Do we share a repisitory with debian?
[04:37] <Cyber-Dogg> I just don't know if I'm missing some step in getting it to use the drivers properly or something
[04:38] <zruty> DJAshnar: Try live CD
[04:38] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg  use iwconfig wlan0  mode managed then
[04:38] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg iwconfig wlan0 essid 'the ap'
[04:38] <DJAshnar> Ok.  Where would I get a torrent of the live?
[04:38] <ike_> try this: iwconfig wlan0 essid YourEssid key Yourket
[04:38] <zruty> ubuntu.com
[04:38] <DJAshnar> ty :)
[04:38] <ike_> then just type dhclient wlan0
[04:39] <xphill64x> DJAshnar: You know Ubuntu is free, right?
[04:39] <Cyber-Dogg> dre360 I already set all that in the /etc/network/interfaces
[04:39] <hassanakevazir> Terabyte, easiest way for me is in linux: right click the file, properties > share, and check all three and click on create share
[04:39] <Cyber-Dogg> and when I do iwconfig it should the ESSID that I set
[04:39] <Cyber-Dogg> however, I don't get an IP on it (and DHCP is running on the AP)
[04:39] <ctmjr> Cyber-Dogg: is wpasupplicant
[04:39] <ctmjr> *installed?
[04:39] <Cyber-Dogg> yes
[04:39] <ike_> try typing as root dhclient wlan0
[04:39] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg did you dhclient wlan0
[04:39] <Cyber-Dogg> DHCP requests go unanswered
[04:39] <Cyber-Dogg> yes
[04:40] <ike_> what wireless card do you have
[04:40] <ike_> intel?
[04:40] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg yea what card
[04:40] <Cyber-Dogg> linksys b/g (BC4306 rev 03)
[04:41] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg i use bt4 by the way
[04:41] <Cyber-Dogg> don't know what tha tis :-)
[04:41] <ike_> do u have the firmware of that card in /lib/firmware ?
[04:41] <bucky> Cyber-Dogg: apt-cache show b43-fwcutter  is that installed?
[04:42] <Cyber-Dogg> yes
[04:42] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg what is the  network manager you are using
[04:42] <bucky> Cyber-Dogg: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[04:42] <Cyber-Dogg> dre360: no idea...
[04:43] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg ifconfig wlan0 down the ifconfig up then use the command iwconfig wlan0
[04:43] <kiran_> hoe to install meatcity themes
[04:43] <DJAshnar> I wonder if my wife will let me install Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook remix on her Asus EEE PC 701 4G surf....
[04:43] <kiran_> please anyone
[04:43] <mramosy> Puerto Rico
[04:43] <Cyber-Dogg> bucky, thanks... I think that is what I was missing
[04:43] <C-S-B> DJAshnar: dont ask?
[04:43] <giiker> hi everyone
[04:44] <mramosy> Someone here are from Puerto Rico??
[04:44] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg then iwocnfig wlan0
[04:44] <DJAshnar> She's running a hacked up XP now
[04:44] <DJAshnar> and if her screen goes into power save, it gets corrupted on wake
[04:44] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg is you wireless card wlan0
[04:45] <kiran_> bucky how to install metacity themes
[04:45] <DJAshnar> Ok.  She has 2GB of ram and 4GB of SSD.  Will that be enough for Ubuntu?
[04:45] <Terabyte> #
[04:45] <Terabyte> fantastic, just like linux, so i try to connect to a share, and firstly, the language doesn't align with that used in the windows world, the connection fails, i get an ugly error message which doesn't tell me why, and lastly i lose the dialog box where i entered all my info and have to start again. Typical Linux. Is this really for humans?
[04:45] <Revolution> how do i set a whole folder and files to chmod 777 ?
[04:45] <Cyber-Dogg> dre360: I think bucky's suggestion is going to fix it
[04:45] <C-S-B> DJAshnar: yes
[04:46] <Cyber-Dogg> that feels like something I've missed
[04:46] <giiker> hii
[04:46] <bucky> kiran_: apt-cache search metacity    install some themes
[04:46] <sp_> I have a problem with acpi
[04:46] <DJAshnar> I need to buy some 16GB SD cards....
[04:46] <Revolution> how do i set a whole folder and files to chmod 777 ?
[04:46] <iceroot> DJAshnar: i am using ubuntu with 4gb ssd and 1gb ram
[04:46] <DJAshnar> I have a windows problem.  Microsoft charges for buggy crap.
[04:47] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg iwconfig would do the jobs faster
[04:47] <sp_> Revolution,  -R is recursive
[04:47] <Revolution> ok thanks
[04:47] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg but what works is good ^_^
[04:47] <DJAshnar> Sorry to be a pain, but is the Atheros card in the 701 4G surf supported?
[04:48] <DJAshnar> BTW - Netbooks wit backtrack on USB rock :)
[04:48] <sp_> I have a problem with acpi, /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0 shows incorrect info
[04:48] <Cyber-Dogg> n/m... I did already do that
[04:48] <iceroot> DJAshnar: eeepc 701g is full supported in 9.04
[04:48] <Cyber-Dogg> that was the b43-fwcutter
[04:48] <iceroot> DJAshnar: 701 4g
[04:48] <Cyber-Dogg> so... iwconfig wlan0
[04:48] <Cyber-Dogg> ?
[04:49] <sunapi386> hi
[04:49] <DJAshnar> I was at my doctors office, looking to get online for a bit, and found a laptop in ADHOC mode connected by wire to the main net.  Funny thing is, there was NO security on the net and I managed to migrate to the database files for their medical records system
[04:49] <histo> So frustrated with ubuntu right now.
[04:49] <histo> I installed xorg. I can get X working but can't install nvidia drivers from the repos They fail.
[04:49] <DJAshnar> Download the SUN vmware and install it with that under windows, to test :)
[04:49] <Cyber-Dogg> dre360: the link bucky gave me actually wasn't anything new
[04:49] <histo> I also can't get sound working on this systme
[04:49] <iceroot> histo: which nvidia-card?
[04:49] <dre360> DHAshar good hacking
[04:49] <hassanakevazir> Terabyte, A subset of it, yea, create the share on Ubuntu like I said above, and access it from windows, works everytime for me.
[04:50] <leaf-sheep> DJAshnar: o.O
[04:50] <histo> iceroot: GeForce FX 5200 i've tried both the 173 and 96 packages int he repos
[04:50] <sp_> sorry guys, is this the right channel to ask questions?
[04:50] <hassanakevazir> !ask
[04:50] <sp_> !ask
[04:50] <sunapi386> I downloaded netbook remix .img file, and verified md5. then i used Win32DiskImager.exe and wrote the image to a 2gb kingston usb. i stuck the usb into a toshiba nb100 netbook, set it to boot from usb. however, it does not. anyone?
[04:50] <leaf-sheep> sp_: For Ubuntu-related, yes it is.
[04:50] <histo> iceroot: I DKMS fails to load the module when booting
[04:50] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg do you know about iwconfig command
[04:50] <sp_> yes, I asked but no one seemed to notice
[04:50] <Cyber-Dogg> yes
[04:50] <iceroot> histo: in the repos???? you want to use the non-free driver?
[04:51] <Cyber-Dogg> iwconfig shows wlan0 and it's ESSID is what I want
[04:51] <sunapi386> I downloaded netbook remix .img file, and verified md5. then i used Win32DiskImager.exe and wrote the image to a 2gb kingston usb. i stuck the usb into a toshiba nb100 netbook, set it to boot from usb. however, it does not. anyone? I know it can boot from usb, since I booted Backtrack 4 from it.
[04:51] <histo> iceroot: yes
[04:51] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg good
[04:51] <leaf-sheep> !details | sp_
[04:51] <sp_> yes, I did
[04:51] <iceroot> histo: why not using the restricted hardware-manager?
[04:51] <histo> iceroot: i'm assuming there are some X libraries i'm missing is why its failing
[04:51] <sp_> please refer to my earlier msg
[04:51] <DJAshnar> leaf-sheep:  I went to the main desk and had shown the lady there what I was accessing.  She called the office manager, who had no clue, until I mentioned it is a HIPAA privacy act breach.  She got on the phone with their contract IT guy QUICK
[04:51] <histo> iceroot: I'm not using gnome
[04:52] <Ben64> histo: i used to use fx5200 on linux all the time
[04:52] <sp_> /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0
[04:52] <histo> iceroot: just a plain xorg
[04:52] <sp_> gives nonsense information
[04:52] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg and the key
[04:52] <sp_> no strange messages in dmesg as far as I can tell
[04:52] <Schmick> anyone have had problems with gvfs-fuse-daemon? it used to run and mount under .gvfs automaticly, but now I have to run it on console ($ gvfs-fuse-daemon $HOME/.gvfs)... not much docu available on gvfs .. sad. :(
[04:52] <histo> Ben64: yeah but the nvidia-glx-1xx packages are all messed up
[04:52] <Cyber-Dogg> the key is setup in /etc/network/interfaces
[04:52] <Ben64> histo: try nvidia-new?
[04:52] <kpkudi> has anyone ever experienced opera freezing a lot when you visit sites that are "heavy" like face book
[04:52] <Cyber-Dogg> and I did a /etc/init.d/networking restart after I save that file
[04:52] <iceroot> kpkudi: no
[04:52] <beginner> hi, i have installed postgres using aptitude, in which dir it will install it?
[04:53] <histo> Ben64: I need the 173 or 96 for this card
[04:53] <leaf-sheep> DJAshnar: Well I never know how to do any remote exploits but I always would love to learn how to do that to satisfy my inner cravings. :X
[04:53] <DJAshnar> I need a new motherboard for the AMD box... I wanna unlock that 7750 BE
[04:53] <sp_> leaf-sheep, do you know where else I should look for signs of trouble?
[04:53] <iceroot> beginner: different dirs
[04:53] <Ben64> histo: whoops, i meant "nvidia-glx-new"
[04:53] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg no iwconfig wlan0
[04:53] <DJAshnar> leaf-sheep: google "backtrack linux"
[04:53] <madLyfe> aparently the ati control center i installed messed with my graphics and now it messed everything up.. how do i uninstall it from command line as root?
[04:53] <Ben64> you don't need 173 or 96, i didn't on my 5200
[04:53] <iceroot> beginner: libs, executable, configs and so on
[04:53] <kpkudi> iceroot: i have no idea its like it wants to do something and then it just quits at it and i have to press exit like 20 times
[04:53] <Cyber-Dogg> I can't... iwconfig doesn't support wpa right?
[04:53] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg is the pass set there
[04:53] <leaf-sheep> DJAshnar: I'm aware of Backtrack, based on Ubuntu distro.  However, I'll have to burn it and start following instructions and such. Thanks for the tips. Maybe I'll do it at one point but... well, yeah.
[04:54] <iceroot> kpkudi: start opera from the shell and look at the output, maybe there are some hints
[04:54] <beginner> iceroot: when do a manuall compiling of postgres i have --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql-8.3" so that it will keep everything in that dir.
[04:54] <Cyber-Dogg> dre360: I don't see it...
[04:54] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg it show look like this Encryption key:off
[04:54] <iceroot> beginner: apt-get is using different dirs for executable, libs and so on
[04:54] <madLyfe> or how do i restart from root command line?
[04:54] <Cyber-Dogg> I don't see Encryption key anywhere in the output
[04:54] <iceroot> madLyfe: reboot  or shutdown -r now
[04:55] <DJAshnar> btw - I will be giving my a 2.7ghz AMD dual to my wife, keeping the other for me, giving the Pent D 940 to my 11 year old son, and using the 3.2ghz Pentium 4 for PF-Sense and use WPA-2 Enterpris WITH RADIUS on my net soon, after what happened at the doctors
[04:55] <Cyber-Dogg> want me to pastebin it?
[04:55] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg or Encryption key: 12345-455-566 etc
[04:55] <MOUD> Hey all
[04:55] <DJAshnar> *my wife
[04:55] <merma> is here a pastebin plugin for gedit?
[04:55] <iceroot> madLyfe: and shutdown -h now   for shutdown
[04:55] <sp_> Cyber-Dogg, use wpa-supplicant
[04:55] <madLyfe> ah
[04:55] <kpkudi> iceroot: well i got a error right off the bat
[04:56] <sp_> leaf-sheep, do you need more details? where should I look for them?
[04:56] <madLyfe> i dunno how to delete the ati thing if i cant log in cuz the graphics are all messed up...
[04:56] <Cyber-Dogg> dre360: http://pastebin.ca/1535940
[04:56] <MOUD> The network thing that appears next to the clock disappeared and so is the program for it that is on the System > Preferences...  How can I make it come back?
[04:57] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg okay
[04:57] <sp_> MOUD, try nm-applet in a console ?
[04:57] <leaf-sheep> sp_: Actually, I never have any issues with power management or acpi.  I'm not even sure what your issue is. Usually, lot of googles might get you somewhere more than IRC but you're welcome to try what you can.  Google your hardware/model/etc specs, power issue, etc.
[04:57] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg your Power Management:off is off that is y
[04:57] <sp_> leaf-sheep, I googled all I could, searched bugzilla, etc
[04:57] <C-S-B> MOUD: right click add notification area?
[04:57] <Cyber-Dogg> ok...?
[04:57] <Cyber-Dogg> how do I rectify that?
[04:58] <MOUD> sp_: I'm not on ubuntu
[04:58] <sp_> now I'm out of ideas, anyone familiar with troubleshooting acpid?
[04:58] <sp_> MOUD, you're on #ubuntu
[04:58] <MOUD> sp_: I mean that I'm not running ubuntu atm
[04:58] <MOUD> C-S-B: I'll try it later
[04:58] <zruty> What's atm in this context...?
[04:58] <DJAshnar> leaf-sheep, sad thing is that I could have easily booted windows and done the same thing.  The laptop adhoc was unsecure in the docs office
[04:58] <sp_> MOUD, I see, what are you running then?
[04:59] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg use this command iwconfig wlan0 key 234556 etc or you can use the   long enc key sdkfsdf323
[04:59] <MOUD> sp_: Win XP (dual boot)
[04:59] <MOUD> zruty: At the moment
[04:59] <zruty> MOUD > Ah I see... Thanks
[04:59] <iceroot> how to set time + timezone in ubuntu (command line=
[05:00] <sp_> MOUD, can you see the wireless card in the windows network center?

[05:05] <MOUD> I can't boot to Ubuntu right now, kinda busy. I'm just trying to get some help so that I can try later
[05:05] <Cyber-Dogg> any reason to not just go edit the wpa_supplicant.conf?
[05:06] <craCkpot> yay
[05:06] <craCkpot> ubuntu now correctly recognizes my raid0 array and can read my ntfs partition on it
[05:06] <mook_> hey guys hows it going ?
[05:07] <sp_> MOUD, so, in ubuntu you see the interfaces?
[05:07] <mook_> ok i got my hard drive patitioned for windows and linux but my linux is not seeing my windows partition well it is but not under wine
[05:07] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg you can but i rather iwconfig . iwconfig will do the rest backtrack for life'
[05:07] <mook_> any ideas ?
[05:07] <dre360> mook_ dude try not to dual boot
[05:07] <sp_> mook_, did you check under /host/
[05:08] <MOUD> not bad mook_ , what about u?
[05:08] <ian__> hey
[05:08] <MOUD> sp_: used to, some minutes ago
[05:08] <dre360> mook_ try using vmware
[05:08] <mook_>  no never looked thare im trying to install apps
[05:08] <Cyber-Dogg> dre360 can iwconfig do WPA though?
[05:08] <Cyber-Dogg> I didn't think it could
[05:08] <sp_> mook_, did you use wubi install or separate partition?
[05:08] <ian__> i have an old monitor and i dont know its specifications and i want my display to be smaller
[05:08] <kermit> if i need a more current driver than what's in the current jaunty kernel, how should i go about that?
[05:08] <ian__> my resolution higher i guess.
[05:08] <sp_> MOUD, sorry, maybe you should check /etc/network/interfaces and see if everything is all right there
[05:09] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg yes all
[05:09] <nokia9300> ian_ what resolution you have now?
[05:09] <sp_> MOUD, you should (maybe) have a interfaces.backup file you can use if everything is screwed up
[05:09] <mook_> cant remember i know when i installed ubuntu i just shortened the  ntfs partition and let ubuntu do its thing
[05:09] <ian__> It appears that your graphics driver does not support the necessary extensions to use this tool.  Do you want to use your graphics driver vendor's tool instead?
[05:09] <Cyber-Dogg> well when I do iwconfig wlan0 key <passcode> it tells me the code is an invalid argument
[05:09] <sp_> mook_, then you used wubi and your windows files should be in /host/
[05:10] <zruty> Cyber-Dogg: Does it work with WEP (temp test?)?
[05:10] <mook_> ok um wubi ? im kinda new to linux
[05:10] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg how long is the passcode
[05:10] <sp_> mook_, /media/host/
[05:10] <Cyber-Dogg> yes... if I put in a wep key it works
[05:10] <sp_> wubi is the name of the windows installer
[05:10] <Cyber-Dogg> uh... 16 characters
[05:10] <MOUD> sp_: I'll take a look later, thanks for the help
[05:10] <Cyber-Dogg> alphanumeric
[05:10] <leaf-sheep> What's the factorid for installing Ubuntu on Mac?
[05:11] <sp_> MOUD sorry I couldn't be more helpful, I'm still green beans :P
[05:11] <mook_> dude you rock man ty
[05:11] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg that's a good passcode no wifi hacks ^_^
[05:11] <sp_> you're welcome :)
[05:11] <prince_jammys> exit
[05:11] <Cyber-Dogg> yes I know... it would be better if I was using AES and not TKIP... but not THAT worried about it...
[05:12] <Cyber-Dogg> nonetheless... iwconfig says it's invalid
[05:12] <ian__> i think i accidently installed the ATI thing
[05:12] <Xerran> I love the combination of KeePassX and Dropbox
[05:12] <ian__> and now i cannot uninstall it
[05:12] <Cyber-Dogg> which seems to say to me that it can't handle a WPA key
[05:12] <ctmjr> Cyber-Dogg: you need a wpasupplicant.conf file with your settings in it wpa needs more settings than wep like the tkip stuff
[05:12] <madLyfe> i dont know what to uninstall, but i cant login cuz something is messing with the graphic output.. and the only thing i cant think of that i installed was the ati control center..
[05:12] <mook_> thanks sp i might have more q's for ya be back in a minute
[05:12] <ian__> One or more applications depend on xorg-driver-fglrx. To remove xorg-driver-fglrx and the dependent applications, use the Synaptic package manager.
[05:12] <sp_> mook_, ok no prob
[05:13] <Cyber-Dogg> ctmjr: right, but I thought that the /etc/network/interfaces file was supposed to automate all that
[05:13] <MOUD> I'm going now. See you ppl later
[05:13] <dre360> Cyber-Dog just apt-get install wicd  and gui it all the way after ok
[05:13] <sp_> MOUD, good luck
[05:13] <nokia9300> ian_ try  sudo apt-get purge xorg-driver-fglrx
[05:13] <madLyfe> and i just tried to remove everything starting with ati (4 items) and every one said package not found..
[05:13] <sp_> dre360, agree!
[05:13] <Cyber-Dogg> LOL
[05:13] <Cyber-Dogg> ok!
[05:13] <dre360> ^_^
[05:14] <ian__> its ian__
[05:14] <ian__> sorry i like the flashing :p
[05:14] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg just type wicd then wicd-client after you install
[05:14] <sp_> yes sorry tab-complete fail !
[05:14] <ender> can anyone here help me edit grub?
[05:14] <ian__> my current resolution is 800 X 600
[05:14] <sp_> ender, more details please
[05:14] <naiad> I just updated my NVIDIA drivers ( official ones from nvidia ) and gnome is now maximizing windows overtop the top dock panel.  Anyone seen this before?

[05:15] <cdw32> hi guys i have a stupid question..I dl Songbird, but how do i install it?
[05:15] <ctmjr> Cyber-Dogg: try wicd if it does not work i will pastebin what you need for wpa
[05:15] <sp_> ender, could you paste your /boot/grub/menu.lst in pastebin ?
[05:15] <losher> madLyfe: there is a log of packages, in the order you installed them, in /var/log/dpkg.log. Use that to decide what to uninstall...
[05:16] <sp_> ctmjr, sudo apt-get remove songbird ?
[05:16] <ender> where is pastebin (first time RFCer)
[05:16] <iceroot> !paste | ender

[05:19] <ctmjr> sp_: sp_ ctmjr, sudo apt-get remove songbird ? i did not ask anything about songbird
[05:19] <durando> [mntent]: line 12 in /etc/fstab is bad
[05:19] <mook_> sp if your curios on what im doing im trying to get everquest running through wine
[05:19] <ravindu> I got genius USB speakers for laptop but ubuntu 9.04 even recognize it but works fine with windows.
[05:19] <dre360> Cyber-Dogg the autostart dir is in your home folder ~/,kde3/Autostart/
[05:19] <durando> is what i get for a return when i sudo mount -av
[05:19] <cdw32> i asked about songbird
[05:19] <sp_> ctmjr, you're right sorry!
[05:19] <ravindu> I want to get it worked with ubuntu coz I hate microsft
[05:19] <sp_> cdw32, sudo apt-get remove songbird
[05:20] <sp_> cdw32, or sudo apt-get purge songbird to delete configuration files also
[05:20] <ctmjr> sp_: np just wanted to make sure your msg got to the right person
[05:20] <ender> wow thanks sp didnt know about purge switch
[05:20] <sp_> man apt-get has lots of info
[05:20] <giiker> durando: can you paste your fstab?
[05:20] <ender> it does
[05:21] <cdw32> sp_: terminal says that the package songbird couldnt be found
[05:21] <losher> durando: there is a space in the directory path name. I find that confuses lots of programs. Can you rename it so it has a dash or underscore instead?
[05:21] <ravindu> any help friends?
[05:21] <ctmjr> cdw32: are you trying to install it or remove it?
[05:21] <ender> did anyone here get my poste?
[05:21] <cdw32> install
[05:21] <ender> paste*
[05:22] <giiker> cdw32: I installed songbird once and did not run that well in Jaunty, just a heads up,
[05:22] <cdw32> giiker i am running hardy
[05:22] <sp_> ender did you post the link to the pastebin?
[05:22] <cdw32> for some reason i cant install jaunty
[05:22] <sp_> I must have missed it
[05:22] <ender> I thought I did
[05:22] <ender> but no one has responded yet
[05:22] <sp_> I think you didn't
[05:23] <cdw32> giiker: i just need a program to let me put songs on my ipod
[05:23] <ender> # menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8)

[05:23] <ender> # Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and
[05:23] <giiker> cdw32: just download the tar and extract it, there will be a binary there
[05:23] <DasEi> !ipod | cdw32
[05:23] <giiker> cdw32: and then just make a link to the binary that is it!
[05:23] <cdw32> giiker:i have no clue what that means
[05:24] <cdw32> sorry
[05:24] <sp_> visit those websites
[05:24] <giiker> cdw32: ohh ok
[05:24] <cdw32> giiker and sp_ i have on ly been on linix for a few weeks
[05:24] <Besogon> giiker, When I had come to my friend and tried to connect with a wire my netbook to his computer, my link-local adress wasn't appropriated to netbook. So I did it by hand.
[05:24] <giiker> go to songbirdd website and download the file
[05:25] <madLyfe> when i type in /var/log/dpkg.log as root is says permission denied
[05:25] <giiker> cdw32: once you have it, right click it and choose extract here
[05:25] <sp_> cdw32, a tar is like a zip, you use tar -xvvf (archivename) to extract
[05:25] <trakcyia> can I delete Linux Kernel Headers safely?
[05:25] <sp_> cdw32, and a binary is an executable file, like windows *.exe
[05:25] <giiker> cdw32: once the extracted you will see a folder named songbird
[05:25] <cdw32> giiker once i have what
[05:26] <giiker> cdw32: go in it and double click songbird.bin
[05:26] <sp_> madLyfe, use sudo
[05:26] <giiker> cdw32: once you have the file in your box
[05:26] <trakcyia> Can I safely delete Linux Kernel Headers?
[05:26] <ender> Paste from Ender at Thu, 20 Aug 2009 00:25:54 +0100
[05:26] <madLyfe> sudo /var/log/dpkg.log ?
[05:26] <DasEi> trakcyia: you speak of recent kernel versions ?
[05:26] <ender> does that mean I have successfully used the pastebin?
[05:26] <madLyfe> that says command not found..
[05:26] <giiker> trakcyia: it depends
[05:26] <sp_> ender, yes ?
[05:27] <sp_> ender, give us the link
[05:27] <ender> where is it?
[05:27] <MadGirl> i guess it is showing all errors or that emerge -uDNvt @system @world does bring up (brought) up packages... but it seems maybe not all of them .... or it is a recent problem or a problem because we usually assume you are working from a root terminal, unless we tell you to logout of the root terminal
[05:27] <cdw32> i will try to follow this giiker
[05:27] <ender> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256105/plain/
[05:27] <wrapster> finally i resolved all the dependency errors in installing sunwsproc and ended up with this one..needed help pls
[05:27] <trakcyia> Dasei yes this is a fresh install
[05:27] <giiker> cdw32: ok
[05:27] <slightlysalted> can someone help me? i want to have visual effects my i need to update my driver but hardware driver doesn't find it
[05:27] <wrapster> dpgk -i sunwsproc*.deb
[05:28] <sp_> ender, the address in the address bar after you posted
[05:28] <sp_> ender, good
[05:28] <wrapster> Error: sunwsproc depends on sprosslnk; however pkg is not installed
[05:28] <hellowe> Do you care? http://www.anontalk.com/ICARE !
[05:28] <sp_> ender, so, remind me of the problem?
[05:28] <DasEi> trakcyia: it's always wise to have 2 or more working kernels, in case an update fails, so not usefull to delete the headers, need them for hardwaresupport
[05:29] <ender> I had the grub error 17. So I reloaded grub to fix it. Then I found I couldnt boot to xp and recieved grub error 22
[05:29] <sp_> ok good
[05:29] <server7> Hi everyone, I'm getting "DUAL SPLIT SCREEN" on my mythbuntu (Only watch tv).. I have ATI RADEON XFX 4850HD   3DDR, 1GB), I have a Samsung 1080p sync Master T260HD  25,5 inch. I know the problem is with a graphic card, but how do I fix this problem?? Thank you
[05:29] <wrapster> but when i try to install sprosslnk.. this is what i get.... Error: <sprosslnk*.deb trying to overwrite /usr/bin/c++filt' which is alos a pkg binutils >
[05:29] <wrapster> what do i do now?
[05:30] <wrapster> :q
[05:30] <trakcyia> dasei, assume all hardware is installed properly, could the headers then be removed without removinc hardware dependencies?
[05:30] <sp_> ender, cat /etc/fstab and paste that in pastebin
[05:30] <ravindu> I got genius USB speakers for laptop but ubuntu 9.04 even recognize it but works fine with windows.I want to get it worked with ubuntu coz I hate microsft
[05:30] <trakcyia> I ask because I have several backups with clonezilla
[05:30] <sp_> ravindu, sound problems are pretty difficult to debug
[05:30] <trakcyia> So I don't worry so much about failure, I keep my important data on a separate partition
[05:30] <sp_> ravindu, for me at least
[05:30] <ianCC> guys know how i can change my resolution
[05:31] <DasEi> trakcyia: many programs need them to function properly, you can dry with --dry-run option to see, what else (uneeded packages afterwards) will go
[05:31] <DasEi> try*
[05:31] <trakcyia> Ah, thanks DasEi for the very informative reply.
[05:32] <ender> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256107/plain/
[05:32] <sp_> ianCC, lxrandr, or grandr
[05:32] <dre360> wrapster ^_^
[05:32] <ravindu> sp_ ,thing why ubuntu hardly recognize USB Devices
[05:33] <sp_> ender, do you know what's on sdb3, sdb2, and sdb1 ?
[05:33] <wrapster> dre360: can you look into this pleasE?
[05:33] <ender> I believe sbd1 is my windows partition
[05:33] <dre360> wrapster
[05:33] <mook_> well sp it seems to be updateing everquest so i think it might work
[05:33] <wrapster> you want me to write and paste it once again? I'll do that :)
[05:33] <sp_> what you need to do is figure out what partition has windows (maybe use gparted?) and let grub (using menu.lst) where to load it from
[05:33] <DasEi> trakcyia: another thing is when you collected lots of kernels and dkms d/l 'ed all the headers, you won't need them any more, just have least 2, better more kernels an their environment alive
[05:33] <ender> let me run gparted real quick
[05:34] <giiker> cdw32: did you get it?
[05:34] <sp_> ender, that should do the trick... when you find windows we can work on the menu.lst
[05:34] <ender> my xp partition is sdb1
[05:35] <sp_> mook_, I've never used wine
[05:35] <server7> Anyone??
[05:35] <MadGirl> Anyone is, like, using xorg-server with USE=minimal?
[05:35] <giiker> cdw32: it is like downloading a zip file and extract it, after that you just have to run the binary (executable) that is it
[05:35] <DasEi> !compile | cdw32
[05:35] <ianCC> i imstalled grandr, but how do i run it
[05:36] <crdlb> MadGirl: wrong channel?
[05:36] <dre360> wrapster may be the sprosslink has dependency tree that is not install
[05:36] <MadGirl> bugger all, i dunno, crdlb
[05:36] <ender> xp is sdb1
[05:36] <giiker> DasEi: songbird does not install
[05:36] <crdlb> MadGirl: sounds like you want #gentoo
[05:36] <DasEi> ianCC: type it in trml
[05:36] <mook_> sofar so good
[05:36] <wrapster> dre360: ill do a pastie and let you knw.. the way ppl are conversing here its very difficult to follow...
[05:36] <wrapster> hold on pls
[05:37] <ravindu> I got genius USB speakers for laptop but ubuntu 9.04 even recognize it but works fine with windows.I want to get it worked with ubuntu coz I hate microsft
[05:37] <DasEi> giiker : what error do you get ?
[05:37] <dre360> wrapster past it a 3 min i am install grub2 and going to configure and reboot
[05:38] <sp_> ender, do you have your windows CD?
[05:38] <giiker> it is not me who has the prob, it is cdw32
[05:38] <error404notfound> Alexia, there?
[05:38] <ianCC> still only gives me to resolution options
[05:38] <sp_> it seems like the easiest way is to boot windows CD, press R for recovery console, and then type FIX MBR
[05:38] <bucky> MadGirl: you mean Option "GlxVisuals" "minimal"  in xorg.conf
[05:38] <giiker> cdw32: have you already tried Amarok, it rocks, better than Songbird for me.
[05:38] <dre360> wrapster just give me 3 min
[05:38] <ender> no I only have a crack cd
[05:38] <wrapster> ok
[05:38] <ender> which I cant get into command line
[05:39] <giiker> DasEi: it is not me who has the prob, it is cdw32
[05:39] <DasEi> cdw32: what do you need the app for ? see :
[05:39] <mykas0> hi everyone, once more
[05:39] <DasEi> !mp3
[05:39] <Vero> i'm listening to The Killers with I Can't Stay since 02:40
[05:39] <sp_> or maybe use grub-install /dev/sda
[05:39] <ianCC> .....
[05:39] <ender> me?
[05:39] <sp_> ender, or maybe use grub-install /dev/sda, and see if that helps
[05:39] <ender> ok
[05:40] <sp_> I'm not sure about that one though... try it out and tell us how it goes
[05:40] <madLyfe> sudo /var/log/dpkg.log ? that says command not found..
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> so how about my ATI x10 remote?
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> remote wonder
[05:40] <mykas0> How can I fix hard drive (i.e. sector) disk errors in ubuntu? Can anyone please help me with this?
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> it worked fine during the install process
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> but after install, it doens't work now
[05:41] <ender> it wants me to check to see if the map is right
[05:41] <DasEi> mykas0: e2fsck
[05:41] <sp_> madLyfe, cat /var/log/dpkg.log
[05:41] <sp_> and sudo it
[05:41] <giiker> mykas0: bad sectors are sgns of HD eminent HD failure, back up and get a new one
[05:41] <cdw32> giike: im not having any luck iwth this
[05:41] <giiker> cdw32: did you get any error?
[05:41] <giiker> cdw32: have you already tried Amarok, it rocks, better than Songbird for me.
[05:41] <mykas0> giiker, the problem is that I can't, in this particular case; I just want to fix them, to make them work at least for a while
[05:41] <ender> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256109/plain/
[05:42] <mykas0> DasEi, can you please give me a "for dummies" explanation on how to use that?
[05:42] <cdw32> giiker: and i can put songs on my ipod iwth it?
[05:42] <DasEi> mykas0: best way is to boot in live, then run : sudo e2fsck -p  /dev/sdXX   with the hd  NOT mounted , find correct device by sudo fdisk -l
[05:42] <ender> that was output
[05:42] <giiker> mykas0: well, i have a question, do you have any critical/important data in your HD?
[05:42] <sp_> yes I read it
[05:42] <sp_> hold on
[05:42] <mykas0> giiker, no
[05:42] <sp_> you have 3 hard drives ?
[05:42] <sp_> windows is in partition 1 of drive 1, right?
[05:42] <giiker> cdw32: that i dont know, dont like ipdos
[05:43] <ender> one is a usb I am fixing for a friend
[05:43] <giiker> mykas0: well bad sectors will be handled by the HD itself nowadays, and will be not shown to the OS
[05:43] <giiker> mykas0: but you will keep getting bad sectors

[05:55] <giiker> cdw32: you might wan to try amarok
[05:55] <cpu_temp> on Lenovo thinkpad T60

[05:55] <cdw32> giiker im not sure if i have
[05:55] <Nerd42> I'd like to mount both in xubuntu
[05:56] <Nerd42> is that doable?
[05:56] <cdw32> i really have no clue with linux
[05:56] <ianCC> it doesnt say i need any drivers
[05:56] <coreyman> dasei1 I am booted in to the live cd and I couldn't mount the disk..
[05:56]  * Nerd42 is following the instructions from !ntfs
[05:56] <DasEi1> coreyman: sure, ope a terminal ..
[05:56] <Nerd42> !ntfs
[05:56] <cpu_temp> sp_: yes it shows 90C for both :(
[05:56] <Comrade_Tuttle> Hey quick question, I'm trying to install Enemy Territory via the .run file from Id. I'm installing it by making it a executable through preferences but it won't give me permission to write to the file directory. How can I give it permission?

[05:56] <giiker> cdw32: did you read here http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-songbird-music-player-in-ubuntu.html
[05:57] <coreyman> dasei1 it told me that there was an error mounting it the ntfs file system was corrupt or something
[05:57] <cpu_temp> sp_: should I try cleaning up the cpu fan ?
[05:57] <cpu_temp> sp_: I cleaned it up about a month ago
[05:57] <DasEi1> coreyman: terminal open ?
[05:57] <sp_> cpu_temp, your cpu should never run that hot, it's designed to shut down at 70-80º
[05:57] <cpu_temp> ok
[05:57] <coreyman> dasei1 one sec botting back in
[05:57] <coreyman> booting
[05:57] <cpu_temp> what do you suggest sp_ ?
[05:57] <cjs> So how do I download and examine an ubuntu source package?
[05:57] <Besogon> Hello. What make link-lical adress (169.254.0.xxx) in 9.04? I have found on page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZeroConfNetworking that there is needed zeroconf package. But in my repositary I have only kde-zeroconf. And I don't use KDE! help
[05:57] <sp_> but of course, if the fan is acting up, and you're experiencing related issues, cleaning it is a good idea
[05:58] <sp_> cpu_temp, is it a laptop?
[05:58] <coreyman> dasei1 booting up now, may take a minute
[05:58] <cpu_temp> yes!
[05:58] <ianCC> i need my drivers
[05:58] <silv3r_m00n> how to install this > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MySQLadministrator1.png   , I mean what is the package name
[05:58] <DasEi1> !source | cjs
[05:58] <prince_jammys> cjs: apt-get source package_name , if you have the deb-src lines in your sources.list
[05:58] <mykas0> giiker, any more ideas on how to patch it up, at least for the time being, i.e. less than 1 month?
[05:58] <giiker> cpu_temp: 90 degrees Celcius or Farenheit?
[05:58] <sp_> cpu_temp, if you can touch the bottom without getting burned, I think it's safe to assume it's not really 90º
[05:59] <cdw32> giiker no but i will try
[05:59] <Comrade_Tuttle> Hey quick question, I'm trying to install Enemy Territory via the .run file from Id. I'm installing it by making it a executable through preferences but it won't give me permission to write to the file directory. How can I give it permission?
[05:59] <coreyman> dasei1 out of curiosity what commands are we going to be running when i get booted up
[05:59] <cjs> Oh, I see. Silly me, thinking that aptitude would allow me to get the source.
[05:59] <giiker> cdw32: thatÅ is the easiest one i remembered!
[05:59] <sp_> Comrade_Tuttle, use sudo chmod +x
[05:59] <neil_d> on my amd64 the flash player has stopped working :( firefox says it hasn't the plugin :( I have re-configured the "flashplugin-installer" package but this hasn't helped. Can anyone help?
[05:59] <naiad> Is it possible to just update my sources file and have gnome 2.2.6 installed on hardy?
[05:59] <Comrade_Tuttle> thank you
[05:59] <cpu_temp> I think I will shut it down
[05:59] <cpu_temp> giiker" thats celcius
[05:59] <sp_> sorry chattr
[05:59] <DasEi1> coreyman: install partitoner and rewrite parti-table
[06:00] <giiker> cplx_: that's hot
[06:00] <giiker> cpu_temp that's hot
[06:00] <ianCC> whats with this weird flash player too
[06:00] <cjs> ubottu, prince_jammys, And now, where did it put the source code?
[06:00] <coreyman> dasei1 i tried to create partitions with the installation cd, is this going to do anything different?
[06:00] <sp_> giiker, don't you think 90 is WAY too hot?
[06:00] <prince_jammys> cjs: downloads it to your current working dir.
[06:01] <cjs> Ah.
[06:01] <sp_> Comrade_Tuttle, sudo chmod +x (file-name)
[06:01] <Xerran> neil_d: U still there?
[06:01] <DasEi1> coreyman: hopefully succesfull, heh
[06:01] <Alexia> Would the person I was talking to about devilspie please send me a tell
[06:01] <neil_d> Xerran: yes
[06:01] <giiker> sp_: oh yeah!! but sometimes there are problems with the readings
[06:01] <cjs> I take it that the directory it unpacked includes the patches?
[06:01] <giiker> cpu_temp did you touch it yet?
[06:01] <coreyman> dasei1 :(
[06:01] <Xerran> neil_d: Go to synaptic and uninstall flash plugin and installer
[06:02] <DasEi1> coreyman: trml up ?
[06:02] <dsl830> cpu_temp is gone i think
[06:02] <Xerran> neil_d: tell me when your done
[06:02] <giiker> that's why i could not autocomplete his nick
[06:02] <Alexia> does xchat have a history function
[06:02] <coreyman> dasei1 for some reason that time it gave me an error when i selected the "try ubuntu without any change to computer" after loading for a while it said /dev/sda error blah blah
[06:02] <cjs> Grr. "Cron Daemon" is hard-coded as the full name when cron sends e-mail.
[06:02] <giiker> but i still saw him online, weird
[06:03] <cjs> So I have messages from twenty different machines in my mailbox, and they're all from "Cron Daemon."
[06:03] <coreyman> dasei1 i think its loading this time
[06:03] <DasEi1> coreyman: give it time, though complains, shall boot
[06:03] <coreyman> dasei1 oh ok, lol
[06:04] <losher> cjs: what kind of messages?
[06:04] <coreyman> dasei1 yea it's bootin up i see the gui now
[06:04] <Xerran> neil_d: Did you do it yet?
[06:04] <cjs> Output of various cron jobs. Apticron, our business systems, etc.
[06:04] <The_Bridge> g' afternoon (GMT + 7) all
[06:04] <giiker> sp_: sometimes the temp reported by the bios is higher than the surface temperature
[06:05] <varsendaggr> hey
[06:05] <neil_d> Xerran: just finished.
[06:05] <Xerran> okay
[06:05] <cjs> losher: Oops, wrong channel.
[06:05] <varsendaggr> j /Blender
[06:05] <dsl830> maybe his cpu died just now ;)
[06:05] <Xerran> neil_d: download this http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[06:05] <coreyman> dasei1 ok .. sudo apt-get install partitioner ?
[06:05] <cjs> Oh, no it is the right one.
[06:05] <losher> cjs: usually cron will only send messages when something it runs produces output. If you make sure to pipe the output from jobs into a mail program, you can set the subject line explicitly. Let me know if you need an example...
[06:05] <cdw32> giiker: im not having any luck...im just not cut out for linux
[06:05] <DasEi1> coreyman: sudo apt-get install gparted
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 oh i already tried that
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 the disk has to be mounted first
[06:06] <Xerran> neil_d: go to your .mozilla and make a folder called "plugins"
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 and it won't mount the disk, gives me an error
[06:06] <DasEi1> coreyman: NO
[06:06] <w4rr10r> m
[06:06] <losher> cjs: seems on-topic to me...
[06:06] <cjs> losher: That seems a bit of a pain, since I also then have to deal myself with making sure it doesn't send mail if there's no output, right?
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 installing
[06:06] <giiker> cdw32: to run songbird, one does not have to install it. so you might be doing something wrong, go take a break and do it again
[06:06] <dbdii407> Where are all the applications installed at?
[06:07] <cjs> You're talking basically, "foo 2>&1 | sendmail -s "foo output"" kinda thing?
[06:07] <Xerran> neil_d: extract the .so file and drag it or copy and paste it into that plugins folder you made
[06:07] <neil_d> Xerran: its going now... I wonder why it didn't work when I did a dpkg-reconfigure on the same package.
[06:07] <giiker> cdw32: sometimes once get stuck on the same thing again and again, but with a little cofee, you will see thing clearer
[06:07] <coreyman> dasei1 ok done installing
[06:07] <naiad> can anyone point me to a sources list that will update gnome to 2.2.6 on hardy? (8.04.3)
[06:08] <DasEi1> coreyman: sudo geparted
[06:08] <Grifulkin> I don't know who I asked for help earlier from but if they are still here and looking at what I am writing then I fixed my problem with bad internet connection I thought it was because it was Ubuntu while all the other computers were Windoze but I downloaded Wicd and now it works flawlessly I didn't know the network manager had that much to do with it
[06:08] <cdw32> giiker: i am im going to bed...thanks for the help...
[06:08] <cjs> Anyway, seems to me that perhaps working from the mutt display end of things first might be a better solution.
[06:08] <Xerran> neil_d: extract the file than drag it to the plugins folder you made
[06:08] <Guest48422> hi this is my second day of chatting...
[06:08] <Acedip> how do i play .mov files in ubuntu??
[06:08] <coreyman> dasei1 sudo gparted ? or sudo geparted
[06:08] <giiker> cdw32: np
[06:08] <Xerran> neil_d: is it working now?
[06:08] <Grifulkin> I'm never going to use a different network manager I don't think
[06:08] <Brando753> what is the maximum supported ram for ubuntu 9.04
[06:08] <DasEi1> coreyman: sudo gparted, *
[06:09] <coreyman> dasei1 ah ok, well its up and running
[06:09] <DasEi1> Acedip: vlc or mplayer or ...
[06:09] <neil_d> Xerran: yes
[06:09] <coreyman> says no devices detected in bottom left
[06:09] <giiker> allright everyone, have a good night...
[06:09] <Xerran> neil_d: cool
[06:09] <neil_d> Xerran: thanks.
[06:09] <Acedip> DasEi1, no its not playing .mov files
[06:09] <Guest48422> can u help me to learn linux
[06:09] <quantolf> hey all, i need some help with samba shares...specifically user control with samba
[06:09] <Xerran> neil_d: np
[06:09] <DasEi1> Acedip: vlc for sure
[06:10] <quantolf> i want to share a folder
[06:10] <quantolf> i have one user with read write access that was added on the ubuntu install
[06:10] <DasEi1> coreyman: choose your 150 gig disk ( upper right corner)
[06:10] <quantolf> and i just added another user that i want to only have read access
[06:10] <quantolf> i created the new user in ubuntu
[06:10] <coreyman> dasei1 nowhere listed
[06:10] <losher> cjs: actually, I cheat. The only thing in my crontab is 50 3 * * * /bin/sh /home/losher/save/cronjobs/daily 2>&1 | mailx -s 'losher1 daily run' losher. Then I run everything from  /home/losher/save/cronjobs/daily and all the various outputs go in one big email to losher. If I needed anything more sophisticated e.g. put the output in a file, onlly send email if the file is non-zero size, then I could do it inside "daily"
[06:10] <quantolf> and added him to the read only list in the smb.conf file
[06:11] <quantolf> but it's not permitting him to login
[06:11] <cjs> Yeah, my jobs are not just daily, though.
[06:11] <cjs> I really do use all of the facilities of cron, including various things running as various users.
[06:11] <kermit> oh i bet all my wireless troubles (intel 5100agn) were from having old firmware
[06:12] <losher> cjs: I understand, but the same principle applies. Just a suggestion...
[06:12] <Acedip> DasEi1, well vlc cant play it
[06:12] <Brando753> whats ubuntu max supported ram?
[06:12] <cjs> losher: Thanks. It would be painful for me to move that way, Unfortunately. Some of these are from hosts I have very little admin access to, as well, and the admins would probably rebel against major changes in how they set up cron jobs.
[06:13] <cjs> Brando753: Depends on the host and architecture, but probably in the hundreds of gigabytes.
[06:13] <Brando753> :P
[06:14] <losher> cjs: I suppose another option would be to filter your incoming mail, looking at the headers, which *will* say which machine they are from, and process the mail accordingly...
[06:14] <DasEi1> coreyman: in the upper right corner of gparted there is an downeeroor, click it, select disk
[06:14] <cjs> I use 12GB machines regularly, and I saw no reason why on some of these it would fail if I just filled up the slots and went to, say, 96 GB. I don't know if it would show up interesting performance problems in the kernel, though.....
[06:14] <coreyman> dasei1 everything is grayed out except help and the very left menu button
[06:15] <neil_d> cjs: just how many slots do they have?
[06:15] <DasEi1> coreyman: you started with sudo ?
[06:15] <cjs> neil_d: 24.
[06:15] <coreyman> dasei1 yes
[06:15] <losher> servers these days have room for ridiculous amounts of memory
[06:15] <quantolf> what' the comand to print the group of a user?
[06:15] <coreyman> dasei1 i checked to make sure disk was running, it is running, i plugged it in different slot and just rebooted
[06:16] <cjs> neil_d: These are some fairly nice supermicro 1U boxes.
[06:16] <The_Bridge> need advise on RAID configuration
[06:16] <cjs> quantolf: "id <user>"
[06:16] <DasEi1> coreyman: strange, close gparted, run : sudo fdisk -l
[06:16] <mazda01> anyone tell me where the default ubuntu wallpapers are storefd? i'd do a locate but I don't know the filename
[06:16] <losher> quantolf: er, groups
[06:16] <coreyman> dasei1 yea nothing was listed
[06:16] <neil_d> cjs: and I thought 4GB was a lot.
[06:16] <mazda01> quantolf, groups
[06:16] <quantolf> how do i print all groups available?
[06:16] <cjs> Hee hee hee. I've not bought a machine with less than 6GB in ages. :-)
[06:16] <mazda01> quantolf, will show you all the groups the user running the command belongs to
[06:17] <DasEi1> coreyman: plugged in ? a usb so, the drive has to be attached, but not mounted
[06:17] <neil_d> quantolf: cat /etc/group
[06:17] <mazda01> quantolf, not sure, but you can look at the users and groups within system, admin
[06:17] <losher> neil_d: for home uise it's plenty. But lord knows what the big boys e.g. google, ebay, amazon have in their servers...
[06:17] <cjs> From the groups manpage: "Same as id -Gn.".
[06:17] <mazda01> quantolf, neil_d is correct. good call
[06:17] <quantolf> i'm doing this cli
[06:17] <mazda01> anyone tell me where the default ubuntu wallpapers are storefd? i'd do a locate but I don't know the filename
[06:17] <quantolf> i have ubuntu-server installed
[06:17] <quantolf> and i think it's about time i get cli understood
[06:17] <coreyman> dasei1 as stated above the disk is plugged in and running, i just switched the hole the sata cable was connected to
[06:18] <quantolf> and how do i add a user to a group?
[06:18] <quantolf> you guys are like a faster version of google :B
[06:18] <cjs> quantolf: "adduser username groupname"
[06:18] <quantolf> ps. anyone know of a great reference guide online?
[06:18] <neil_d> losher: I don't know... but I think they mostly rely on 100's or 1000's of individual servers.
[06:18] <coreyman> dasei1 ok i see it now
[06:19] <coreyman> dasei1 it is listed there...
[06:19] <coreyman> dasei1 let me see what i can do now
[06:19] <DasEi1> Acedip: I watched a mov few hours ago in vlc, for sure;; prbly not completely downloaded, start vlc from trml to see
[06:19] <coreyman> dasei1 this scrub raid controller for this old board is quirky
[06:19] <DasEi1> coreyman: in fdisk or gparted you can see it ?
[06:19] <coreyman> fdisk
[06:19] <quantolf> ok that didn't work damnit
[06:19] <coreyman> installing gparted right now
[06:20] <quantolf> anyone know samba well?
[06:20] <losher> neil_d: I don't know either, but from a management standpoint, better 100 really big machines than 1000 small ones
[06:21] <ian__> ok i got my monitor specs
[06:21] <ian__> http://www.monitorworld.com/Monitors/nec/multisync3vjc1535vma.html
[06:21] <ian__> so how can i configure the resolution
[06:22] <quantolf> wow i fixed my problem
[06:22] <quantolf> i hate how simpel that was
[06:22] <quantolf> how do you remove a group from a user?
[06:22] <coreyman> dasei1 sweet i see it in gparted now, odd how i just had to change the slot it was plugged in
[06:22] <coreyman> is ext4 good now? like should i use it for a main FS? or should i wait for bugs to be gone.
[06:22] <neil_d> losher: this a little off topic.. but there is a limit to how many concurrent connections any CPU can handle, no matter how much RAM it has.
[06:23] <ian__> can anyone help
[06:23] <Guest48422> hi
[06:23] <ian__> fggh
[06:23] <Guest48422> any one there ??
[06:24] <gogeta> nope
[06:24] <dsl830> no
[06:24] <Guest48422> i need help
[06:24] <Guest48422> ??
[06:24] <DasEi1> coreyman: fine, now device >create partition table
[06:24] <gogeta> and
[06:24] <error404notfound> is there a way to give "f" priority over "i" in command likes cp, mv, rm? i have created aliases of these commands with -iv, when i use rm -rf from command line, it behaves like rm -rvif so asks me for confirmation, i dont wanna unalias rm/cp/mv everytime i need to delete lot of files.
[06:24] <neil_d> Guest48422: 1257 loged on atm
[06:24] <Guest48422> funny :)
[06:25] <quantolf> how do you remove a group from a user?
[06:25] <aread> quantolf: remove their name in the group file.
[06:25] <DasEi1> !ask |  Guest48422
[06:25] <quantolf> how?
[06:25] <gogeta> DasEi1: youy runed it
[06:25] <cjs> losher: Turns out that in mutt, "subscribe ^root@.*$" does the trick if you use %L for the name display in the mail index format (which is the default).
[06:25] <quantolf> or where
[06:26] <losher> cjs: very cool. Much neater than the pile of perl I would've used...
[06:26] <Guest48422> i need to know about linux kernal
[06:26] <aread> quantolf: gedit /etc/group
[06:26] <quantolf> ty
[06:26] <coreyman> dasei1 what type of partition table? msdos?
[06:26] <neil_d> quantolf: use "system->administration->User and Group" for a GUI
[06:26] <Guest48422> why it is differ from windows kernal
[06:26] <DasEi1> coreyman: yes
[06:27] <coreyman> dasei1 k done
[06:27] <DasEi1> coreyman: when done, click apply
[06:27] <quantolf> i'm enjoying vi :D
[06:27]  * gogeta just lost intrest in the topic
[06:27] <danl> what is the max number of characters bash can accept as parameters to a command typed by the user in terminal? or is there a max?
[06:27] <DasEi1> gogeta: see you over in a sec
[06:27] <neil_d> Guest48422: It differs in many ways (on being it works properly)
[06:28] <coreyman> dasei1 yea it did that, and i also told it to create a new ext3 file system spanning the whole disk, and it's working on that now
[06:28] <gogeta> DasEi1: lol does not the windows vs linux topic
[06:28] <cjs> losher: I'm still tempted to munge it with procmail, since there's still a lot of redundant info in that 15 char field, but it will do for the moment.
[06:28] <dsl830> wait, they're different? ;)
 when we trying install ubuntu inside of windows how that two kernals manage them selves
[06:29] <coreyman> dasei1 all operatoins successfully completed, looks like i'm on my way to install now.
[06:29] <DasEi1> coreyman: that wouldn't have been needed, the installer would recognize the disk after the initial steps already, I think you'are best off with guided install, so you it double
[06:29] <losher> danl: I'm pretty sure there'll be a maximum, but it'll be quite large. Best not to rely on it though as it might vary from system to system
[06:29] <gogeta> dsl830: nope one and the same at least in oz land
[06:30] <gogeta> lol
[06:30] <dsl830> ;)
[06:30] <danl> losher: ok, was just wondering, I was writing a perl script for a client and didn't know the max number of arguments that they would be allowed to enter, might also be better asked in #perl, thanks
[06:31] <DasEi1> danl : tell me if you find it in short
[06:31] <coreyman> dasei1 is there a way to get a server install from the regular cd?
[06:31] <losher> danl: same problem. If you push the limit, there's no guarantee it'll be portable or even compatible from one version to the next.
[06:31] <histo> Okay how does ubuntu tell X to use the nvidia driver if it doesn't add anything to xorg.conf
[06:31] <histo> ?
[06:32] <gogeta> histo: its called automation
[06:32] <DasEi1> coreyman: no, but you can apt-get anything just even from a minimal install
[06:32] <gogeta> histo: very neat trick we have been doing since 1995
[06:32] <histo> gogeta: well i'm trying to do it with just xorg installed and need to know what their scripts are doing.
[06:32] <coreyman> dasei1 yea server is bare min and that's what i was looking for, guess i'll just download the disc
[06:32] <ian__> i need to change my resolution
[06:32] <ian__> please help me
[06:32] <losher> gogeta: if only it worked better....
[06:32] <danl> I don't expect them to push the limit, but I like to know for bounds testing :-) granted it just takes a comma separated string, splits it, sticks it into an array and loops on the array, if it works for 10, it should work for 1000000000...
[06:32] <ian__> i have my monitor specs
[06:32] <gogeta> losher: lol yea
[06:33] <ian__> i need this done
[06:33] <DasEi1> coreyman: no, minimal is bare min, server is extended to webservices
[06:33] <DasEi1> !minimal
[06:33] <gogeta> histo: well you can still use the xorg.conf as a override for the auto if you have issues
[06:33] <histo> I can get it working by specifying Driver "nvidia" just wondering how ubuntu does it.
[06:33] <coreyman> dasei1 i wanted webservices -gui last time i installed it, that's what it was
[06:33] <histo> gogeta: I'm just running xorg no gnome etc... So I don't have all the bells and whistles
[06:33] <varsendaggr> hey blender is all funky with ubuntu!!   it sucks
[06:33] <losher> danl: ok, as long as you understand the risks...
[06:33] <ian__> all you have to do is tell me how to edit the conf file or whatever
[06:34] <gogeta> histo: heh
[06:34] <Guest48422> hi did any one knows linux network
[06:34] <ian__> i have been trying but it gives me wierd warnings and stuff
[06:34] <DasEi1> coreyman: that's the server cd then, but anyway you can alter it forth and back later as you wish
[06:34] <Guest48422> how to gei GUI in ubuntu server
[06:34] <gogeta> hahahaha
[06:35] <Guest48422> how to get GUI
[06:35] <gogeta> Guest48422: -100 for asking abought gui and server
[06:35] <durando> hey guys i have a drive that mounts through fstab to a folder but still shows up under places how can i have it mount but not show the drive under places
[06:35] <DasEi1>  Guest48422 : do you have a desktop ?

[06:35] <gogeta> DasEi1: he said server
[06:35] <DasEi1>  Guest48422 : so that's a GUI
[06:36] <Guest48422> i installed server os to it
[06:36] <losher> Guest48422: you can install the X11 stuff on a server distro if you want
[06:36] <dre360> hey all i am back after a hell of grub2 shit

[06:37] <losher> !xserver
[06:37]  * losher sighs
[06:37] <gogeta> losher: rather then going w desktop
[06:37] <DasEi1> gogeta:what might #ubuntu-offtopic be like around this time ? ;-)
[06:37] <ian__> HELP
[06:37] <gogeta> DasEi1: im in ther
[06:37] <dre360> please before you all go installing grub2 please use this link to get the info on the grub2 bug http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-upgrade-to-grub2-on-ubuntu-jaunty.html
[06:37] <histo> now I just have ot figure out how to get my sound working
[06:37] <losher> someone please tell Guest48422 what to type to get the x11 server installed instead of just kibitzing...
[06:38] <ian__> you guys know how to help, and all im asking for is your help
[06:38] <gogeta> losher: fine
[06:38] <Karhuton> how can i see the package update descriptions from command line?
[06:38] <ian__> i have 5 min to get this done
[06:38] <gogeta> he left
[06:38] <gogeta> lol
[06:38] <beautiful> ae
[06:38] <ian__> i nes ubuntu was shit
[06:39] <losher> gogeta: I'm not surprised. We were monumentally unhelpful considering we're a support channel...
[06:39] <losher> ian__: here's your money back...
[06:39] <gogeta> losher: baa thers support then thers dumb moves
[06:40] <losher> gogeta: if you're not willing to put up with the occasional dummies, you're in the wrong channel...
[06:40] <gogeta> losher: lol the why is linux diffrent get me the most
[06:41] <gogeta> losher: dont take me to hart today tired
[06:41] <Comrade_Tuttle> So i tried the sudo chmod +x and then booted the .run file with in the same terminal and still getting no write permission
[06:41] <losher> gogeta: I don't mind that either. I hate the ones too lazy to google...
[06:42] <dsl830> is chmod +x the same as chmod a+x?
[06:42] <gogeta> losher: driving linux bliend is one thing adding the other factor is another
[06:42] <zruty> Sometimes Google yields all kinds of results except what one is looking for
[06:42] <Karhuton> dsl830: yes
[06:42] <losher> gogeta: or the ones who keep me waiting 10 minutes then come back and say "sorry, I was on the phone". Like my time is worth nothing because they aren't paying. Mutter, mumble...
[06:42] <qdb> hello
[06:42] <leaf-sheep> dsl830: No. +x just add execution permission for your user where a+x add execution permission for all users.
[06:42] <gogeta> lol
[06:42] <Karhuton> no? hm
[06:42] <dsl830> ty leaf-sheep
[06:43] <Karhuton> dsl830: it is
[06:43] <leaf-sheep> dsl830: Using a+x mean applying it to root account too... and any other users you may have.
[06:43] <leaf-sheep> dsl830: Welcome.
[06:43] <gogeta> zruty: we where just flying off topic nv us
[06:43] <Karhuton> leaf-sheep: it adds it to everyone
[06:43] <durando> i have a drive that mounts through fstab to a folder but still shows up under places how can i have it mount but not show the drive under places
[06:43] <quantolf> i'm attempting to install the 3ware CLI (eventually the web gui).  i downloaded and untarred the files and now I'm left with a .bin file...where do i go from here?
[06:43] <Karhuton> leaf-sheep: +x is same as a+x, just try it out
[06:44] <quantolf> this is in CLI fyi
[06:44] <dsl830> Karhuton is right
[06:44] <dsl830> just tried it
[06:44] <canthony> i am using xrandr to add my second monitor to the right of the first.  everything works as expected when i issue a --same-as command, but when i doe a --left-of or --right-of, it extends the desktop but still mirros the screens.  it is actually making the virtual desktop bigger (and the appropriate options are in xorg.conf) but the two are still mirrored
[06:44] <losher> gogeta: or user devzero, who berated me publicly, telling me I shouldn't be advising people at all, when the advice I gave him was correct, he just didn't wanna hear it...
[06:44] <aread> leaf-sheep: chmod doesn't know about users.
[06:45]  * losher <rant mode off>
[06:46] <canthony> the same command work fine in Karmic, but thats proabbly irrelevant
[06:46]  * gogeta total iq lost to windows user -10
[06:46] <mixmatch> anyone else having issues with kernel updates being pushed to them daily?
[06:46] <Karhuton> question: how can i see the package update descriptions from command line? the "bugs fixed" info that is shown in the graphical updater
[06:46] <Karhuton> i've tried googling for this but seems impossible because the terms are too vague
[06:47] <losher> Karhuton: no, it's a good question. I'm looking forward to hearing someone answer..
[06:47] <canthony> Karhuton, apt-cache show <pkg> might provide that info
[06:47] <mcmlxxi> I've found F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. how come?
[06:47] <qdb> hello. i connected to internet with pppoeconf and set to connect on start, but now it did not connect automatically on or 2 times. how can i check what are options of pppoeconf now? where is configuration file?
[06:48] <mazda01> my screenshot command just sits there forever after I click save. the folder is there and writable, what could be the problem? anyone know how to issue screengrab from command line so I can see ouputing error possibly?
[06:49] <DigitalKiwi> mazda01: scrot
[06:49] <mixmatch> I'm getting kernel 2.6.28-15 as an update every day. is anyone else having this issue?
[06:49] <Alexia> I was for a few days mixmatch
[06:49] <Karhuton> canthony: i now have apache2 as upgradable package but apt-cache didn't show anything extra
[06:49] <theatro> mixmatch, did you update it ?
[06:49] <theatro> mixmatch, or does it say package was kept back?
[06:50] <mixmatch> yes, why is it sending the same version number again?
[06:50] <aread> Karhuton: Have you looked at aptitude?
[06:50] <Alexia> mixmatch, I installed it once and then it asked again, and I installed it again now it doesnt come up anymore
[06:50] <leaf-sheep> Karhuton: aptitude changelog <packagename>
[06:50] <mixmatch> ok, well, I've seen the same thing on my desktop and server with the generic and server versions of the kernel
[06:50] <Karhuton> leaf-sheep: found the info, thank you
[06:51] <mixmatch> I wish they would update the version number of they are going to push changes so I don't think something is wrong. you know?
[06:51] <Alexia> mixmatch, Yah it really is confusing, im not sure what the problem is
[06:51] <Alexia> mixmatch, I agree
[06:51] <mixmatch> well, hopefully it won't come up again...
[06:51] <mixmatch> thanks alexia
[06:52] <Alexia> mixmatch, your welcome anytime
[06:52] <mcmlxxi> I've bound F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. any ideas?
[06:53] <LavaEagle> You didn't have it combo'd at all did you?
[06:53] <quantolf> how do i extract a .bin file?
[06:53] <Alexia> mcmlxxi, do you have a keyboard with seperate functions(such as media functions) on top of the function keys
[06:54] <Karhuton> quantolf: .bin files are of not any standard format - type 'file nameoffile.bin' to console and check if it tells you what type of file it is
[06:54] <LavaEagle> I would like to explode my computer.  Would I need to use sudo for this?
[06:54] <differentreality> hey!  I would like to know if I can access .hta files from linux, right now i am running ubuntu 9.04    thanks
[06:54] <quantolf> Karhuton: POSIX shell script text executable
[06:54] <Alexia> LavaEagle, lol
[06:54] <LavaEagle> Compile the bin file?
[06:54] <Karhuton> quantolf: so it's not a binary file, it's a text file
[06:54] <Karhuton> it's a nvidia driver package?
[06:55] <quantolf> Karhuton: 3ware 3dm2
[06:55] <Karhuton> you just execute it
[06:55] <quantolf> how through cli?
[06:55] <Karhuton> ./thefile.bin
[06:55] <Karhuton> chmod +x thefile.bin if it's not executable yet
[06:55] <mazda01> all of a sudden gnome-screenshot --interactive doesn't save the screenshot anymore. it just sits there with the spinning wheel like it's trying to save the picture but it can't? any thoughts?
[06:55] <quantolf> Karhuton:  i get this error:           'bc' command was not found. Please make sure bc is in the path and run the installer again.
[06:55] <EagleScreen> Karhuton: the changelog?
[06:56] <EagleScreen> LavaEagle: you can o it without sudo
[06:56] <quantolf> Karhuton: i've installed it before through a gui and a java gui popped up and i used that to install
[06:56] <quantolf> Karhuton: i'm trying now thorugh cli only
[06:56] <mazda01> nevermind, somehow / is full. need to find out what to delete pronto
[06:56] <gpraveen> hi
[06:56] <LavaEagle> EagleScreen: You don't know how much time you just saved me!
[06:57] <Karhuton> quantolf: try: ./thefile.bin --help or -h
[06:57] <mazda01> where the trash can again in jaunty?
[06:57] <Karhuton> maybe it gives some parameters you can try to get it running
[06:57]  * DigitalKiwi thought everyone had bc
[06:57] <Karhuton> and try: 'which bc' to check that you actually have it already
[06:57] <quantolf> same error
[06:58] <quantolf> oh shit fuck did i forget to do that
[06:58] <quantolf> god damn me
[06:58] <FloodBot3> quantolf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:58] <eekfonky> how do I register at nickserv?
[06:58] <mcmlxxi> Alexia, no I don't

[06:58] <leaf-sheep> !register | eekfonky
[06:58] <quantolf> apoligzies
[06:58] <EagleScreen> LavaEagle: you can explode your ubuntu without sudo, but it will be safe after reset computer, but sudo or root account is ussualy easy to hack in ubuntu
[06:58] <quantolf> *apoligizes
[06:58] <quantolf> i can't spell
[06:59] <zruty> You know how to spell 4 letter words though
[06:59] <quantolf> that's plum luck
[06:59] <mazda01> where the trash can again in jaunty?
[06:59] <aread> differentreality: IE under Wine.
[06:59] <leaf-sheep> !trash | mazda01
[06:59] <quantolf> Karhuton: didn't have bc installed :) working so far... :)
[07:00] <quantolf> i'm so happy i could lick a flower
[07:00] <majuk> quantolf: Just one?
[07:00] <mazda01> thanks leaf-sheep
[07:00] <DigitalKiwi> the poor flower!
[07:00] <quantolf> majuk: 4 if it's a clover!
[07:00] <zruty> Lick a rose: It will hurt a bit but you'll smell better
[07:01] <quantolf> zruty: i like spinach too :)
[07:01] <quantolf> i'm going cross-eyed
[07:01] <dsl830> i'm so happy i could lick a toad
[07:01] <LavaEagle> Ah man I just sudo'd all over my computer
[07:01] <quantolf> lol
[07:02] <LavaEagle> This chinese food is terrrible
[07:02] <Alexia> LavaEagle, LOL!!
[07:02] <DigitalKiwi> you accidentally the entire sudo?
[07:02] <LavaEagle> All of it
[07:02] <zruty> I just reallized... sudo is also a 4 letter word
[07:02] <quantolf> But what about sudoku?
[07:02] <LavaEagle> Just sitting here and I accidentally it on my desk
[07:02] <LavaEagle> sudoku?
[07:02] <Myrtti> let's keep ontopic please
[07:03] <Myrtti> this channel is for Ubuntu support
[07:03] <quantolf> Fair 'enuff
[07:03] <LavaEagle> My apologies
[07:03] <sharperguy> How do i view stored passwords in firefox?
[07:03] <Myrtti> offtopic to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:03] <EagleScreen> I have a Debian testing installation, and inside it, in /jaunty-root i have a full usable installation of Ubuntu jaunty, Can I boot that jaunty installation from grub or grub2?
[07:03]  * zruty switches his behave mode ON
[07:03] <Myrtti> sharperguy: there should be a button for showing them
[07:04] <LavaEagle> I just got my brother to install Ubuntu after trying Mint, kubuntu and LXDE.  Any suggestions to make his comp a bit more l33t?
[07:04] <dre360> to all has anyone used ksplice it is sweat
[07:04] <DShepherd> sharperguy, edit-preferences-security-saved password
[07:05] <leaf-sheep> LavaEagle: L33T? Remove usplash so you can see text scrolling up at boottime.
[07:05] <sharperguy> DShepherd, thankyou
[07:05] <dsl830> remove X?
[07:05] <DShepherd> sharperguy, your welcome
[07:05] <EagleScreen> or remove quiet to see text and usplash at the same time
[07:05] <losher> EagleScreen: yes, you should be able to boot it from the debian grub by suitably editing the boot files. I dunno the details for the debian boot stuff though...
[07:05] <qdb> hello. i connected to internet with pppoeconf and set to connect on start, but now it did not connect automatically one or 2 times. how can i check what are options of pppoeconf now? where is configuration file?
[07:06] <Alexia> LavaEagle, Install a custom Booscreen
[07:06] <EagleScreen> losher: Debian boot stuff is just the same than Ubuntu
[07:06] <Alexia> LavaEagle, and an awesome splas screen
[07:06] <LavaEagle> Alexia: Good idea!
[07:06] <LavaEagle> Alexia: You got any sites or am I off to google?
[07:06] <kraut> moin
[07:08] <dsl830> moin
[07:09] <losher> EagleScreen: then you can copy the debian boot entries in its menu.lst and change the paths and uuids etc. to point to files in /jaunty-root
[07:10] <EagleScreen> how can I set in menu.lst or grub.cfg a root= parameter that points to a folder inside a partition?
[07:10] <EagleScreen> root=/dev/sda2/jaunty-root does not work
[07:11] <riz0n> is there software on the ubuntu live CD that can mirror the contents of one partition to another?
[07:11] <aread> rizon: dd
[07:11] <aread> riz0n: sorry, dd
[07:12] <EagleScreen> riz0n: gparted may do it, but the best it partimage unless partition to be ext4
[07:12] <riz0n> its going to be an NTFS drive to be honest with you
[07:12] <EagleScreen> dd is also a good choice
[07:12] <losher> EagleScreen: oh, I see.  You're right, I don't think it can be done. You'd have to make a new root partition and move the contents of /jaunty-root to it...
[07:13] <EagleScreen> yeah, losher but i really do not want more partitions
[07:13] <nomad> u want the link or can u open it on your laptop?
[07:13] <nomad> srry wrong chat
[07:13] <EagleScreen> riz0n: partimage has experimental support for NTFS
[07:14] <losher> EagleScreen: I don't think you have any choice in the matter. Like you said, I don't think you can boot to a folder inside a partition...
[07:14] <riz0n> EagleScreen: thanks. i'll give it a try. worse comes to worse, i can set everything up fresh on the PC. there's practically nothing on it anyway.
[07:14] <EagleScreen> losher: i know it would be a good improvement in GRUB
[07:15] <Mrokii> hello all. Recently I built a new kernel (2.6.30) and now I found that there are a lot of sources from older kernels on the hd (like a folder named "linux-headers-2.6.28-11"). Is it save to remove/uninstall them?
[07:16] <losher> EagleScreen: Cool. start programming. Grub needs programmers :-)
[07:16] <bug> wtf
[07:16] <ZeDN0R> someones already bug?
[07:18] <extuser> does anyone know of an irc channel dealing with the topic of depression? or a good place to search for such? google was no help.
[07:19] <leaf-sheep> extuser: IRC is not a place for that.  Period.
[07:20] <extuser> it would probably beat sitting at home alone.
[07:20] <Myrtti> extuser: a) this is Ubuntu support, not Yellow Pages b) professional help!
[07:21] <leaf-sheep> extuser: Join #ubuntu-offtopic #defocus and participate in conversations -- But not about depression.  You're just bored.  Is all.
[07:21] <gogeta> extuser: jump off the nearest bridge and make shure to post it on youtube well have a buddy do it
[07:22] <Myrtti> gogeta: you're not helping.
[07:22] <Threetimes> Hi, I want to access a FTP directory, but it doesn't work in all programs.
[07:23] <wrapster> dre360: you there?
[07:23] <vitek_> Threetimes, are you sure all connection settings are correct? (port,passwd...etc)
[07:23] <wrapster> can you look into the pastie and let me know please
[07:24] <Steil> how do i play 1080p on ubuntu?
[07:24] <LavaEagle> Threetimes: FileZilla, Make sure Correct user and password, don't put a port.
[07:24] <dinexi> Hello. How can I set up a virtual device in ALSA that outputs sound to both onboard sound card (hw0) and USB 5.1 headset (hw1)?
[07:24] <Threetimes> vitek_: I can access it with Nautilus and many other programs, but some programs don't like FTP.
[07:24] <Steil> x264
[07:24] <Steil> i want to play x264 on ubuntu
[07:24] <LavaEagle> Steil: Have a monitor that supports it, have a file like mkv or something, and VLC
[07:25] <extuser> yeah not helping. i didn't realize until his post that i'm not doing as well as i thought.  maybe helping myself is not such a great idea.  i'll see the family doctor tomorrow. i'll be alright.
[07:25] <mcmlxxi> can anyone help me with my key-binding problem?
[07:25] <dre360> wrapster i am back
[07:25] <Steil> LavaEagle: i just wanted to see the crabs on the actress
[07:25] <Steil> its a nudie flick
[07:25] <Steil> my monitor doesn support it
[07:25] <Steil> i just want to zoom in
[07:25] <wrapster> dre360: http://pastie.org/589422
[07:25] <FloodBot1> Steil: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:25] <eekfonky> ubuntu one daemon keeps crashing with a fatal error on start up, can I fix this?
[07:25] <LavaEagle> mcmlxxi: What you need?
[07:25] <wrapster> dre360: that the pastie
[07:25] <Steil> LavaEagle:  can you zoom in on vlc?
[07:25] <dre360> wrapster sorry but grep2 shit up my system got the link
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: is it essential?
[07:26] <wrapster> thats fine... I just need help from you :)
[07:26] <vitek_> Threetimes: then its definitely in settings, the principle of ftp access is the same for all.
[07:27] <Threetimes> vitek_: I mean I used the places menu to connect to me FTP-server and I made a bookmark to the right folder. In most Open/Save/whatever dialogs I can see the bookmark. Not in all programs. It's a QT4 program, if that matters.
[07:27] <eekfonky> ActionParsnip: I really need to sync the files so as that my colleague in france can use and update them
[07:27] <paul_nm> hola
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: you could disable it as part of your bootup sequence but have it starting later
[07:27] <paul_nm> im having a problem installing an nvidia driver ubuntu 8.10
[07:27] <mcmlxxi> LavaEagle, I've bound F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. any ideas?
[07:27] <canthony> i have a single card on radeon driver and two DVI ports.  everytime i xrandr one dviport/monitor, the same settings are applied to the other dvi port.  for example if i --pos 1680x0 for DVI-1, the same --pos is applied to DVI-0.  the display settings app works fine however
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: if you install bum and run it with gksudo you can edit the bootup and edit it out
[07:28] <vitek_> Threetimes: hmm, i use muCommander and its all i need. try watching terminal, where that program of yours goes wrong.
[07:28] <canthony> any idea as to why xrandr is not making a distinction between my DVI ports?
[07:28] <EagleScreen> losher: it would be a kernel improvement, not a grub improvement
[07:28] <EagleScreen> #linux
[07:28] <losher> EagleScreen: I suspect it would be both...
[07:29] <Threetimes> vitek_: I just cannot see the Place in the Import dialog, that's what goes wrong.
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: maybe it needs something that isnt loaded yet during the boot
[07:29] <haf1ztang> some canhelp me with my wireless?
[07:29] <haf1ztang> cant detect wireless spot
[07:29] <eekfonky> ActionParsnip: I'll switch it off for start up and try it, thanks
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: can you provide a pastebin of the output of: sudo lshw -C network; sudo iwlist scan
[07:30] <haf1ztang> ok
[07:31] <vitek_> Threetimes: ok then, look where the prog stores the fav sites list and if you have write rights for that directory. or else i dunno.

[07:34] <ActionParsnip> !beryl | Rishab_
[07:34] <ActionParsnip> Rishab_: you can use compiz-fusion in any distribution of linux
[07:34] <xangua> Rishab_: Compiz Fusion is aviable for debian also
[07:35] <dre360>  wrapster what is your os
[07:35] <Rishab_> can i get the same jelly effect in my debian ??
[07:35] <wrapster> Im running Nexenta on Vbox and solaris as host
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> Rishab_: yes, its the same application
[07:36] <syntax> whats the jelly effect?
[07:36] <wrapster> dre360: Im running nexenta as guest on vbox and solaris as host
[07:36] <ActionParsnip> syntax: i think s/he means wobbly windows
[07:36] <syntax> oh ok
[07:37] <dre360> wrapster solaris good
[07:37] <canthony> man no matter what i do xrandr keeps affecting both DVI ports, i dont know why/how the display configuration app is working and xrandr is not
[07:37] <wrapster> im essentially trying to compile a few things on nexenta for which i need sunwspro(sun studio12) but running into these issues
[07:37] <ActionParsnip> !dualhead | canthony
[07:37] <wrapster> dre360: solaris is good...
[07:37] <DigitalKiwi> lol switch distro for desktop effects >.>
[07:37] <wrapster> dre360: do you suggest i remove that default one present and install or is there a way to overwrite it?
[07:38] <canthony> yeah dude im pretty well versed in xrandr xineramr, i have a 4-head setup at work
[07:38] <wrapster> dre360: with the new pkg i want to install (that being sprosslnk)
[07:38] <xangua> Rishab_: and what versión of debian are you using¿¿
[07:38] <CodeWar> from under /sbin/init I m seeing a lot of ***d applications launched in my process manager. Is there a way to control what daemons are launched when my system starts
[07:39] <myself> is there any way to make it so the "Open with.." doesn't keep changing the program, like say for image files from Gimp to Image Viewer every time I use a various program to open a file, because it moves from the menu to the top at the spot of the pop-up menu. I'm talking about this: http://i32.tinypic.com/2uzxhzt.png
[07:39] <ActionParsnip> !bum | CodeWar
[07:41] <dre360> wrapster solaris is like a BMW in unix
[07:42] <dre360> wrapster follow link http://www.mail-archive.com/gnusol-devel@lists.sonic.net/msg00104.html
[07:42] <wrapster> I know :)

[07:42] <haf1ztang> guys, some pls help me with my wiresless connection
[07:42] <Rishab_> xangua am using BOSS (debian based OS)
[07:42] <dre360> wrapster what is get is that you have to download sunwspro package and compile
[07:42] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: i gave you the guide, you need to use the b43fwcutter
[07:42] <dre360> wrapster sorry for the typing ^_^
[07:42] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: that will make you a driver
[07:43] <eekfonky> ActionParsnip: restarted then waited a few minutes before opening ubuntuone daemon, still crashed
[07:43] <zruty> How to make sure html gets redirected to an https URL? Apache
[07:44] <wrapster> dre360: what i did was apt-get install sunwspro... This download took 12hrs and all the dependencies were downloaded... then many of them were not installed as the order of installation was not right.. I rectified everythign and now i'm left with only this... one
[07:44] <wrapster> dre360: apparently without this im unable to dwd some other pkgs like mercurial-common
[07:44] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/wireless-internet/146665-solved-wireless-setup-ubuntu-9-04-a.html
[07:44] <wrapster> dre360: as there is a conflict at sprosslnk
[07:45] <firecrotch> zruty: This should help you: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-apache-force-https-secure-connections.html
[07:45] <haf1ztang> ActionParsnip: eventho im using Wicd connection manager
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: you could be using no manager at all, if the driver is bad yo won'y get anything
[07:45] <henry__> hai
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: you dont have a good driver for your wireless, you need the driver installing so you can then use wicd
[07:47] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: like if you have no sound, if your sound driver is bad, no amount of moving the volume sliders up and down will do anything as the card is not configured
[07:47] <nitheesh> hi
[07:47] <gogeta> hi
[07:47] <tazmania> what is the recommended swap area size on a 15GB space?
[07:48] <gogeta> tazmania: eh they used to say dubble the ram but 512 mb pr 1gb should do
[07:48] <tazmania> I am trying to install ubuntu desktop version on my laptop to have dual boot with my XP
[07:49] <tazmania> my ram is 1GB
[07:49] <Dextorion> morning

[07:49] <ActionParsnip> oops
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> wrong target, tazmania see above^
[07:49] <mereo> Good morningéMight
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: make sure you MD5 check the ISO file you download
[07:50] <canthony> ActionParsnip, i figured out xrandr's problem, it was force using the same crtc for each monitor identifier
[07:50] <tazmania> ActionParsnip: what do you mean?  I just downloaded the desktop version from ubuntu website
[07:50] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: thats fine, but you have no way of knowing the data is ok do you
[07:50] <histo> I'm really confused now.
[07:50] <DigitalKiwi> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-swap-space.html tazmania
[07:50] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | tazmania
[07:51] <histo> sdlmame has no sound. But if I ssh to the box and forward X and run sdlmame the box plays the sound.
[07:51] <wrapster1> dre360: you there
[07:51] <histo> but a local user can't
[07:51] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: install CDs are massively intollerant of bit errors, so you can check it with MD5 to make sure what you have is correct
[07:51] <zruty> firecrotch: Thanks!
[07:51] <tazmania> why do I need to check the md5 of the downloaded iso?
[07:51] <histo> I need a smoke at my last straw
[07:51] <tazmania> oh i see
[07:51] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: ubottu gave you some links, use them
[07:51] <firecrotch> zruty: You're welcome :)
[07:52] <nitheesh> hi
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: if the hashes do not match you will need to redownload
[07:52] <dre360> wrapster  i am here trying to figure out your problem and google it at the same time ^_^ O i found out i am going to be a father yesterday
[07:52] <tazmania> what are the chances?
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: some
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: its very advisable to chack as if you have a bad ISO the install will be bad or may not complete or may damage your system
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: it takes like 20 seconds
[07:54] <haf1ztang> ActionParsnip: b43-fwcutter is already the newest version. <- do you i already installed it?
[07:54] <tazmania> OK
[07:54] <leaf-sheep> tazmania: It's a simple command. md5sum ubuntu-jaunty.iso and it'll print out bunch of characters.  You compare it with the website to ensure your downloaded ISO are not corrupted.
[07:54] <tazmania> OK
[07:54] <nitheesh> i want install redmine

[08:00] <nitheesh> any one needs help?
[08:03] <tazmania> i couldn't find the md5sum on ubuntu website
[08:03] <tazmania> the iso i downloaded was ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso

[08:04] <Ben64> google is your friend :)
[08:05] <Dayofswords> also right as yu download the page says "Learn how to verify that your CD downloaded ok: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM"
[08:05] <tazmania> my iso matches the md5sums link
[08:05] <tazmania> now I can install, correct?
[08:06] <Dayofswords> si
[08:06] <Dayofswords> also found the link for all version's md5 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes

[08:06] <lillux> hello everybody from italy!  i got a  problem with grub... can someone help me? thanks in advance
[08:07] <Ben64> !ask | lillux
[08:07] <LavaEagle> Does anyone need any help??
[08:07] <LavaEagle> Alright cool.
[08:07] <Dayofswords> italy? is it nice there? btw you can just ask, no need to ask to ask
[08:07] <ActionParsnip> !it | lillux
[08:08] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: gogeta: why do they insist on doing that, its so frustrating and scrolls irc channels
[08:08] <LavaEagle> Can someone explain to me what grub is?
[08:08] <C-S-B> has anyone played bluray through a vista VM?
[08:08] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: http://www.google.com/cse?cx=partner-pub-2070091971271392%3Aougxymc6y19&ie=UTF-8&q=what+is+grub&sa=Search
[08:09] <C-S-B> LavaEagle: grub = bootload
[08:09] <C-S-B> er
[08:09] <tazmania> so 1GB for Swap
[08:09] <Jyxt> grub is a bootloader..its what tells your computer what to do after the BIOS is finished
[08:09] <LavaEagle> Ty CSB
[08:09] <tazmania> Primary or Logical?
[08:09] <Dayofswords> its just polite to ask, you know in school, that say "raise your hand to ask" then later you said "can i ask you something?" its programmed into us!
[08:09] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: in short: grub is a bootloader. Gives you the possibility to choose between OS'es
[08:10] <LavaEagle> Thats all I was looking for :)
[08:10] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: make 3, swap / and /home
[08:11] <lillux> hello! im  unable to boot my ubuntu 9.04, grub told me error 22 no such partition....
[08:11] <tazmania> ActionParsnip: Why /home?
[08:12] <tazmania> I have 15GB of space, swap 1GB -> primary?
[08:12] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: it helps if you need to reinstall, you can simply wipe out the other 2 and reinstall, then re-add the home partition to fstab (although the ubuntu installer allows you to set its mount point at install time)
[08:12] <dutchbuntu> lillux: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414205
[08:12] <lillux> the live cd of ubuntu 8.04 told me that i have 2 media, the one with  ubuntu 9.04 and one little that i think is of ubuntu 8.04
[08:13] <dutchbuntu> lillux: probably an error in your menu.lst
[08:13] <tazmania> i see
[08:13] <dutchbuntu> lillux: sorry, ignore last post
[08:13] <lillux> ok
[08:13] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: if you have 1Gb ram then 1Gb swap will do you, 15Gb isnt a huge amount to play with
[08:13] <dutchbuntu> lillux: link is ok though. might work for you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414205
[08:13] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: you could give about 5 or 6Gb to / and leave the rest to /home
[08:13] <tazmania> my entire hard drive is only 60GB and XP has only taken 45GB
[08:14] <lillux> i have deleted ubuntu 8.04 so the  grub is drunk.....
[08:14] <dutchbuntu> hmm, so might be your menu.lst after all
[08:15] <lillux> yes i think so
[08:15] <Dextorion> lillux, if you deleted the linux partition you probably need to reset your MBR aswell. Do you run linux at all now?
[08:15] <lillux> i m on live cd
[08:15] <Dextorion> lillux, right. And on your harddrive?
[08:15] <lillux> yes
[08:15] <thomthom> you can restore gurb from the live cd lillux
[08:15] <lillux> im running on my laptop, only by live cd
[08:15] <Dextorion> lillux, what do you have on your hard drive? Windows? Linux?
[08:16] <tazmania> the install is quite slow compared with fedora
[08:16] <Dayofswords> winxp bootloader setup is annoying you forget how
[08:16] <Dayofswords> to fix it
[08:16] <alper_y> lillux i think it can help you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[08:17] <tazmania> what's the difference between creating a Primary or Logical partition?
[08:17] <lillux> Dextorian good question :) let me explain :D  i had win and ubuntu 8.04, then i deleted win and  i installed ubuntu 9.04 ...  then again i move my personal file from ubuntu 8.04 to 9.04 and deleted the 8.04 one
[08:17] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: go find out
[08:17] <tazmania> what's your recommendation
[08:18] <lillux> and now grub tell me that i have 9.04 and 8.04 but doesnt work
[08:18] <Dextorion> lillux, so you have ubuntu 9.04 only. But it doesnt work.
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: you can have 4 primary partitions so if you are using less than 4 partitions you can make them all primary
[08:18] <Dextorion> lillux, ok, and grub think you still have both.
[08:18] <lillux> yes, and the live cd tell me that i have 2 media: the part with 9.04 and the old swap of 8.04
[08:19] <lillux> yes
[08:20] <Dextorion> lillux. alright.. i guess first thing would be to edit your menu.lst. i belive dutchbuntu pasted a good link for you. lets see
[08:20] <Dayofswords> hey i've have yet to try the NBR, does it have a live part to it like the cd versions?
[08:20] <Dextorion> lillux, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414205
[08:20] <lillux> thank you guys i really appreciate ;)
[08:20] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: sure
[08:20] <Dextorion> lillux take a look at that one first. see if it can help you
[08:21] <Dextorion> lillux: you will have to know what harddrive and what partition you have your ubuntu 9.04 on.
[08:21] <lillux> how can i do it?
[08:22] <nras> how can i update to latest version of ubuntu

[08:25] <nras> DasEi1: tnx
[08:25] <Dextorion> lillux, i dont think i ever used a live cd, im afraid i cant help you with that. Perhaps ActionParsnip or dutchbuntu can help you to edit menu.lst from the livecd.
[08:25] <jcmarini> ok
[08:25] <westmi> nightvisio:
[08:25] <westmi> reinstall drivers:
[08:25] <lillux> thanks yo ;)
[08:25] <J-_> meh
[08:25] <westmi> ?
[08:25] <nitheesh> yes
[08:25] <nitheesh> tell me
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> lillux: the livecd is read only
[08:26] <nitheesh> wat
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> its a cd
[08:26] <lillux> so how can i do?
[08:26] <thomthom> @ lillux http://preview.tinyurl.com/mvq93o reinstall grub
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> or worm (write once, read many)
[08:26] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip, we want to edit menu.lst on hes lost ubuntu hard drive partition.
[08:26] <nightvisio> westmi, but I have just installed them
[08:26] <nitheesh> try to reburn the cd
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: oic
[08:26] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip, hes booted with the live cd. He has to mount his harddrive partition, right?
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> lillux: you can run: sudo fdisk -l   from the live cd
[08:27] <lillux> thomthom the link doesnt work for me :( im on a live cd
[08:27] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip, i never really worked with those live cds myself.
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> lillux: you can then mount the internal partitions
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: its exactly the same as an installed system, just running in ram
[08:27] <westmi> google it
[08:27] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip, alright cool.
[08:28] <ActionParsnip> lillux: you can mount your partitions to folders then you can simply edit the files as you wish
[08:28] <lillux> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256169/
[08:28] <westmi> my solution for most problems, i've got nvdia also, and never have a problem with it-what are you doing?
[08:29] <lillux> tell me what i have to do step by step... im a dumb :P
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> lillux: sudo mkdir /media/sda1; sudo mkdir /dev/sda3; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 -o uid=1000,rw,user; sudo mount /dev/sda3 /media/sda3 -o uid=1000,rw,user
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> lillux: should do you nicely
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> lillux: oops
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> scrap that
[08:31] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[08:31] <lillux> ok
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> lillux: sudo mkdir /media/sda1; sudo mkdir /media/sda3; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 -o uid=100; sudo mount /dev/sda3 /media/sda3 -o uid=100
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> lillux: you will then have 2 extra folders in /media that relate to the partitions
[08:31] <banisterfiend> is there a way to run make a Makefile from a directory other
[08:31] <banisterfiend>                 than the one the Makefile is in?
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> lillux: if you venture into them you will see the files
[08:32] <westmi> gee that sux
[08:32] <banisterfiend> i wnat to be able to run 'make' somehow even though the
[08:32] <banisterfiend>                 Makefile is in a subdirectory called src/
[08:32] <banisterfiend>  and i want to be able to do it without modifying the Makefile

[08:37] <theCarpenter> if i launch an app from a terminal window, is there a way to keep that app from stealing focus?
[08:37] <lillux> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256173/
[08:37] <lb> ok i will try, thank you
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> lillux: what filesystem does /dev/sda3 use?
[08:38] <coreyman> actionparsnip thx
[08:38] <lillux> i dunno..
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> lillux: well sda1 mounted right?
[08:39] <lillux> mmm yes
[08:39] <lillux> i think so
[08:39] <lillux> ;)
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> lillux: does that partition contain what you need
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> lillux: nautilus /media/sda1 &
[08:40] <lillux> [1] 16054
[08:40] <lillux>  and then its open a folder
[08:41] <lillux> media with sda1 and sda3
[08:41] <lillux> sda1 is my ubuntu 9.04
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> lillux: yes, you can observe the data on the partition now
[08:41] <lillux> mmmmmmm if i click on sda3... its empty!
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> lillux: thats because the mounts are filing arent they
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> lillux: think about it
[08:42] <lillux> anyway, sda1 is where my precious data are stored :)
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> lillux: but is it the partition you want to manipulate?
[08:43] <lillux> i just want to start my ubuntu .... open my laptop, then grub, choose ubuntu 9.04 ...thats it
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> !grub | lillux
[08:44] <coreyman> How can I auto login kde gui?
[08:44] <Dextorion> lillux, look in your media sda1 directory. do you have a boot directory in there now?
[08:44] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip thanks action!
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: ?
[08:45] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip for helping :)
[08:45] <lillux> yes, ihave a boot directory
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> lillux: thats ok then, follow the guide to reinstall grub and you'll be ok
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> lillux: or you can modify the boot folder appropriately yourself (not advised for your level)
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: np man
[08:46] <LavaEagle> When i try to install Startup manager I get: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: python-support (>= 0.90.0)
[08:47] <lillux> the second one.. .try to modify the boot folder
[08:47] <ActionParsnip> lillux: your call dude
[08:47] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: how are you trying to install it?
[08:47] <lillux> :D
[08:47] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: try synaptic
[08:48] <LavaEagle> yes I am, and I will try that right now

[08:54] <syntax> taz i think you will like ubuntu
[08:54] <ManDay> Hello, I've got a problem with my mouse. First, it's way too sensitive, even with sensitivity turned all the way down. Second, I need a different sens. for my touchpad and any plugged in mouse - is the latter possible?
[08:54] <Kartagis> !info xev
[08:54] <ActionParsnip> livingdaylight: i'd imagine so
[08:55] <Kartagis> !info xorg-utilities
[08:55] <livingdaylight> ActionParsnip: today was a major update, no?
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> livingdaylight: not sure, my systems are all off and in boxes
[08:55] <Kartagis> does xev exist in ubuntu?
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: sure does
[08:55] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: when did you last update?
[08:55] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip, what package?
[08:55] <livingdaylight> I don't know about anyone else but i kept getting usplash crash reports everytime i booted up... recent update seems to have fiexed that
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> !find xev
[08:56] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: and which version are you on?
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: not sure tbh
[08:56] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: 9.04
[08:56] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: and you previous update was when?
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: comes with nearly all linux distros so i never thought about it
[08:56] <kemas> hello, i am from indonesia
[08:56] <kemas> i love ubuntu
[08:57] <dutchbuntu> kemas: ubuntu loves you too
[08:57] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: why?
[08:57] <Myrtti> kemas: hello and welcome. Did you have a ubuntu support question?
[08:57] <syntax> :) @ ubuntu
[08:57] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: to figure out which updates you received this morning
[08:57] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: i received kernel update i tell you
[08:57] <kemas> Myrtti: no thank you. i'd just like to say hi to you all
[08:58] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: okay, i missed that
[08:58] <ActionParsnip> dutchbuntu: could check the age of the files in the apt-cache ;)
[08:58] <thomthom> !omg pink ponies
[08:58] <tazmania> Thanks folks for helping me out in setting up my first ubuntu ...
[08:58] <livingdaylight> kemas: you are what you are because of what i am - i am very sorry for you :p
[08:58] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: that was a major update, yes
[08:58] <oguncak> hi friends. i just installed pidgin 2.6.1 and wors perfect. but does anyone know how to enable video and voice chat function on gtalk?
[08:58] <Myrtti> kemas: :-) If you want to chat, please join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat, this channel is for Ubuntu support
[08:58] <westmi> is command line a language, or is it a bunch of commands to be learned or memorized?
[08:58] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: very necessary, because ubuntu was bork before then....
[08:58] <kemas> ok sorry guys.
[08:58] <kemas> i am off now
[08:58] <Myrtti> kemas: no probs
[08:59] <kemas> quit
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> westmi: just know what you need to know. you'll never know tem all as there are millions
[08:59] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: not on my machines, but im glad it works ffor you
[08:59] <westmi> thanks
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> westmi: plus there are all the options on each command
[08:59] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: i'm glad they fixed it becausae i was about to ditch this os
[09:00] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: i like having the latest, but also need a bit of stability, eh!?
[09:00] <nmvictor> hi, some issue here. USB device is not available guest OS in virtual box even after i have activated USB in the settings.anyone know what im supposed to do?
[09:00] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: i'd ask in #vbo
[09:00] <ActionParsnip> #vbox
[09:00] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: ;)
[09:01] <westmi> ActionParsnip,  what is the place to learn all this?
[09:01] <Myrtti> nmvictor: do you have OSE version or the one downloaded from Sun?
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> westmi: right where you are sat, use the command line and research commands when you need them
[09:01] <Dayofswords> there is also linux commands in book you can get at the library
[09:02] <Dayofswords> 500 pages of cammands and their options...
[09:02] <westmi> cool,thanx
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: it will have the main commands but some more obscure ones it will be missing
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: you'll probably find most of it is ffmpeg and mencoder
[09:03] <nmvictor> Myrtti: i just downloaded it from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.0.4/virtualbox-3.0_3.0.4-50677_Ubuntu_intrepid_i386.deb and its version 3.0. So i cant tell which server it really it belongs with.
[09:03] <apparle> why do I gt this while bootiing [   18.268980] agpgart-ati 0000:00:00.0: unsupported Ati chipset [1002/5a33])
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> he who reads man mencoder is a lost soul
[09:04] <Myrtti> nmvictor: ok, so it is the sun version, I'd assume.
[09:04] <ajushi> Hi, I'm using and trying to do a "apt-get install subversion" but I'm getting errors: http://pastebin.com/de45a959 how do I fix it?
[09:04] <nmvictor> Myrtti: so??
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> ajushi: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install subversion
[09:05] <alankila> ajushi: rm that broken libneon27-gnutls file
[09:05] <ajushi> alankila: how?
[09:05] <alankila> apt-get clean can do that as well, I guess.
[09:05] <alankila> rm $the_file ;-)
[09:05] <Myrtti> nmvictor: so it should work. people in #vbox or similar might be able to help too
[09:05] <ajushi> ActionParsnip: i'll try it
[09:05] <ajushi> ok thanks :)
[09:05] <alankila> that libsvn1 is probably also broken.
[09:06] <nmvictor> Myrtti: posted over their, no one is helping.
[09:06] <DasEi1> nmvictor: you also can add the repo for vbox, so getting the updates
[09:06] <lb> how may i identify my grafics card ?
[09:06] <ActionParsnip> lb: sudo lshw -C display
[09:06] <DasEi1> lb : lspci or hwinfo, then filter with grep
[09:06] <nmvictor> DasEi1: no idea on how to do that, any help?
[09:07] <DasEi1> nmvictor: jaunty ?
[09:07] <lb> thank ou
[09:07] <nmvictor> DasEi1: intrepid
[09:07] <ajushi> i'm still getting the same errors :/ I guess the packages are corrupted in the repo?
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: scroll past the files and read
[09:08] <nmvictor> ActionParsnip: thanks
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: there is a repo for your release there, you will then need to follow the remainder of the guide to add gpg keys etc
[09:08] <ajushi> I'm getting these errors now: http://pastebin.com/d725817a
[09:09] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: try what it says on line 2
[09:09] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: 'sudo apt-get install -f'
[09:09] <Sky[x]> its safe to connect on server with SSH from some open wireless ? or i have to enable some better encryption ?
[09:09] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: without the quotes ;)
[09:09] <nmvictor> how would one install lamp using the taskel command?
[09:09] <DasEi1> nmvictor: http://reformedmusings.wordpress.com/2008/12/10/setting-up-sun-virtualbox-6-under-ubuntu-810-intrepid/

[09:10] <ManDay> Hello, I've got a problem with my mouse. First, it's way too sensitive, even with sensitivity turned all the way down. Second, I need a different sens. for my touchpad and any plugged in mouse - is the latter possible?
[09:11] <DasEi1> Sky[x]: quite save
[09:11] <Q-FUNK> howdy!
[09:12] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install -f; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:12] <Q-FUNK> I've been trying to figure out which package provides /etc/profile - would anyone know?  it's not reported by dpkg -S
[09:12] <apparle> My sytem is behaving oddly..sometimes it starts up all graphic effects and sometimes it doesn't........same behaviour in vista
[09:13] <dutchbuntu> Manday: i don't think the latter is possible
[09:13] <westmi> apparle, maybe a hardware problem................
[09:13] <ManDay> dutchbuntu, there was something im hal, wasnt there?
[09:14] <ajushi> dutchubuntu: i'm still getting errors argh..do you guys think i should change country repositories?
[09:14] <apparle> westmi: but sometimes its fine and sometimes its not........and since winXP has no graphic effects...it runs smooth
[09:14] <oguncak> does anynone know how to enable voice and video chat on pidgin 2.6.1????????
[09:14] <nmvictor> anyone know how i would install lamp using the taskel command?
[09:14] <dutchbuntu> ManDay: I dunno, sorry
[09:14] <westmi> might have connection problems
[09:14] <ajushi> or should i install the libs manually via dpkg?
[09:14] <ManDay> Ok thanks.
[09:14] <apparle> does ubuntu support agpgart-ati module by default?
[09:15] <westmi> see? no grphics=no problem
[09:15] <DasEi1> apparle: could be hardware (heat ?) ; check /var/log/syslog in the cases it fails, also messages and look through dmesg.txt after doing dmesg > dmesg.txt in trml
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> apparle: i believe it an xorg.conf option
[09:16] <DasEi1> apparle: the distros since hardy lack ati - support
[09:16] <westmi> apparle, make sure your connections are clean and tight
[09:17] <coreyman> anyone suggest a vnc server/client ?
[09:17] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: which country are you on now?
[09:17] <apparle> westmi: I have an integrated graphic card......hence no question of connections
[09:17] <Achmed> tightvncviewer /tightvncserver
[09:17] <ajushi> dutchubuntu: Philippines (ph)
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: none, im sure there is something more graceful
[09:17] <apparle> ActionParsnip: you mean the agpgart-ati option?
[09:17] <coreyman> achmed i tried it and i get connection refused from my client to my server
[09:17] <Achmed> coreyman: tightvncviewer /tightvncserver. But I'd suggest FreeNX/NX
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> apparle: possibly, see if it exists in wbsearches
[09:18] <jerrcs> hi there. I'm getting errors like this "Aug 20 03:11:44 hades kernel: [879071.847344] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET driverbyte=DRIVER_OK,SUGGEST_OK" .. any clue what could be wrong with the drive?
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: why do you need vnc, what are you wanting to achieve?
[09:18] <Achmed> coreyman: try looking up freenx on google
[09:18] <Achmed> ActionParsnip, it's probably some kind of remote box
[09:18] <apparle> ActionParsnip: I get this in syslog [   18.268980] agpgart-ati 0000:00:00.0: unsupported Ati chipset [1002/5a33])
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> Achmed: true but there are far better solutions to many situations than vnc
[09:18] <westmi> apparle, it still sounds like some kind of hardware problem,overheating, or many different things when was the last time you dusted?
[09:18] <coreyman> achmed already on it
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: what are you using the vnc to achieve?
[09:19] <Achmed> ActionParsnip, which is why freenx was invented :)
[09:19] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: try another country, just to be sure
[09:19] <ManDay> dutchbuntu, there was something im hal, wasnt there?
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> Achmed: often the whole desktop isnt needed, or a web interface exists which is much slicker
[09:19] <ajushi> dutchubuntu: how do i change country repos?
[09:19] <apparle> westmi: never dusted........does dusting help???...........and yes my computer is on for 15hrs or more in 24hrs
[09:19] <westmi> apparle, ati graphics do not play nice with ubuntu
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> westmi: mid range ones do, bleeding edge dont
[09:20] <westmi> nvdia is much better
[09:20] <apparle> westmi: but I get the same problem in vista also
[09:20] <Achmed> VISTA FAILS. period.
[09:20] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: System -> Administration -> Software Sources
[09:20] <qwyeth> My gnome theme manager is broken in 9.04... After clicking Install Theme I get a message saying the theme is installed, and the files do get copied to ~/.theme, but it's not actually added to my theme list.
[09:20] <merma> Achmed, actulla, Vista FAILED
[09:21] <coreyman> actionparsnip having my server machine in a remote location on my lan with no monitor, keyboard, or mouse
[09:21] <apparle> can it be any option in BIOS
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: thats fine, but why do you need the entire desktop? what are you doing on it that requires the whole desktop to be seen?>
[09:21] <westmi> apparle, my opinion=graphics
[09:21] <Achmed> merma, windows 7 is the new vista btw :D
[09:21] <Achmed> merma, it's starting to bsod on ppl
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> !ot | Achmed
[09:21] <Achmed> :)
[09:22] <westmi> apparle, YES dusating is good-
[09:22] <apparle> westmi: but what in graphics??............
[09:22] <westmi> dusting=cooler pc
[09:22] <merma> Achmed: probably due to video card drivers
[09:22] <coreyman> actionparsnip you suggesting ssh?
[09:23] <Achmed> coreyman, ssh is simpler than using a desktop and dealing with issues that arise with the remote desktop
[09:23] <jerrcs> can anyone help me with this error? "Aug 20 03:11:44 hades kernel: [879071.847344] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET driverbyte=DRIVER_OK,SUGGEST_OK"
[09:23] <apparle> westmi: I'll do it first thing.........and yes after restarts graphics starts....and once started its fine but again stops after restart.....behaving randomly in both vista and linux
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: no, i want to know what you are achieving with vnc, there is most likely a more sophisticated way which will be faster
[09:23] <sts> hello folks. whats the current stable release of ubuntu?
[09:23] <coreyman> actionparsnip and that would probably be ssh, figured vnc would have less install set/up time and i could do ssh later
[09:23] <dutchbuntu> sts: 9.04
[09:24] <Kittykis> sfs: 9.04 jaunty
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: no way, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:24] <Kittykis> insert a slash or quotation marks as you prefer
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: job done
[09:24] <Achmed> sts, they're right. 9.04. you could just as easy check ubuntu.com
[09:24] <westmi> apparle, i've heard of lots of problems with ati graphics, i have nvdia, and never had any problems-check the ubuntu forum-
[09:24] <rashed2020> Anyone have that site that automates layout.xml?
[09:24] <coreyman> actionparsnip kk thx
[09:24]  * Kittykis licks Achmed?
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: x forwarding is also enabled by default so you can run x based apps on the system and the display will be shown on the client system
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: if its windows based you will need to install and run xming
[09:25] <apparle> westmi: I use open source drivers.......and well windows has the ATI drivers.......then what's the problem......in them and that also the same problem
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: but again it depends what you are wanting to achieve, if you just want to connect to run updates then a whole desktop is way OTT and ssh will do very nicely
[09:25] <coreyman> actionparsnip k well im goin to bed ill get on that tomorow
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: but you wont say why you need a full desktop so I can but guess
[09:25] <Kittykis> vnc is irritatingly slow as i recall
[09:26] <coreyman> actionparsnip i dont really know im just playing around
[09:26] <westmi> apparle, i would do the dusting,cleaning-you would be suprised at the amount that can accumulate
[09:26] <Achmed> FreeNX is honestly faster and more reliable.
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: if you want to manage samba shares you can easily modify smb.conf and restart samba to add / remove shares
[09:26] <Kittykis> stick with ssh for now, simpler
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: in most cases vnc is very overkill and apps now have web interfaces or flat out better ways of doing things
[09:26] <apparle> westmi:  that's 1st priority now......thanks for the tip.........
[09:26] <nmvictor> everytime i insert a flash disk, memory card or eject a CD,nautilus shuts down for a while,(i.e every nautilus window close and the desktop icons disappear ).is this normal?
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: plus vnc is unencrypted so using it over www without an ssh tunnel is foolhardy
[09:27] <westmi> apparle, do the dusting,cleaning-that's probibly the problem, if it is a recent one
[09:27] <Achmed> ActionParsnip, i don't think he's here anymore.
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> he only missed the last bit so its all gravy
[09:27] <Achmed> yeah that works
[09:28] <Polarina> Is there a simple way to install either denemo 0.8.6 or 0.8.8?
[09:28] <apparle> westmi: last 6 months.......but I was using KDE4 so I thought the problem was due to its stability but I recentl y installed vista and found this
[09:28] <lb> got another question :) i've tried to reconfigure my xorg.conf ->  "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" as said in the wiki. but i wasnet asked about my grafics driver. just about kernel-frambuffer + keyboard. how may i configure the grafics card then ?
[09:29] <ActionParsnip> apparle: you wonder why users are crying out for a kde 3.5 for jaunty etc
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> !info denemo
[09:30] <westmi> apparle, well like i said, i've heard of all sorts of problems with ati........i dont have any links available to me, but search the ubuntu forums and you'll find em.....
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> Polarina: you will need a repo for the newer version as the official repo has 0.7.7
[09:31] <apparle> ActionParsnip: no.........not at all because KDE4 is cool......did you check KDE4.3......its quite stable and also awesome
[09:31] <alankila> It's good that the radeonhd or other drivers work at least halfway because the fglrx just plainly never does these days. Last time it worked for me must have been like 6 months ago. ATI sucks, AMD involvement or not... :-/
[09:31] <eueu> Hello! I would please like to know which command could tell me the encoding of a file?
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> apparle: i use lxde now, much faster and very stable
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> eueu: file <filename>
[09:31] <alankila> eueu: "file" tries to guess it I think, but it's of course not possible to reliably determine this.
[09:32] <alankila> in every case, anyway
[09:32] <eueu> yes I know
[09:33] <eueu> I just would like to know which files are stored in a latin1-incompatible way
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> Polarina: https://launchpad.net/~agutarra/+archive/ppa
[09:33] <alankila> none, because any file can be interpreted as containing latin1 encoding without actual error.
[09:34] <iwobbles> Hi ppl, Im having issues with firefox, lost all the buttons on some sites like Lycos and cant send emails anymore, Ive googled it but cant find any answers
[09:34] <alankila> it's actually possible to determine if a file is valid UTF-8 because of the specific canonicalized representation of valid UTF-8, but that's an exception.
[09:34] <ManDay> Guys, when I mute my speakers they start cra
[09:34] <ManDay> ckling
[09:35] <Gnea> ManDay: make sure they're plugged in all the way
[09:35] <ManDay> Guys, when I mute my speakers they start crackling. Any idea what's this? It also happens when I turn the volume down to 0.
[09:35] <ManDay> Gnea, it's a laptop...
[09:35] <dutchbuntu> ManDay: is that an Ubuntu issue?
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: if you slide the sliders round does it changethe volume of the noise?
[09:35] <ManDay> Yes, it is
[09:35] <ManDay> ActionParsnip, it's still a laptop
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: i know, with the mute on, youo can still slide the volume sliders
[09:35] <Gnea> ManDay: the internal speakers still have a wire that connects to the motherboard.
[09:35] <alankila> ManDay: so is it almost silent if you leave just a bit of volume, but begins to make some noise when you put it all the way down?
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> mndyou can do that on any laptop or desktop
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: ^
[09:36] <alankila> and does the noise stop if you stop the sound source?
[09:36] <ManDay> Yes,
[09:36] <ManDay> at
[09:36] <ManDay> alankila,
[09:36] <ManDay> sorry man this keyboard is so tiny
[09:36] <ManDay> ill try
[09:36] <Gnea> ManDay: are you using pulseaudio?
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: if you pull the sliders down with it muted does the noise stop? this will work on a laptop
[09:37] <asfjio> hello, can someone tell me what spellchecking application is using evolution to correct mistakes while writing an email? because in spell checking section in the preferences i have languages that if they are checked or not there is no difference. only english words are checked.
[09:37] <ManDay> alankila, the noise stops when I stop the sound source. Yes, I think this must be pulse, ActionParsnip it happens at both ocassions: Muted AND/OR turned down
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: ok, have you tried switching to ALSA?
[09:38] <ManDay> alankila, so this means the noice is actually coming from ubuntu...
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> !sound | ManDay
[09:38] <ManDay> hm, im actually not even sure what im using. how can i quickly find out?
[09:38] <alankila> well, I guess this at least sounds like a bug in the way the dac is being driven... It would be in ALSA in that case, and only affect the volume level 0.
[09:38] <ManDay> ah
[09:39] <g_giulio> hi
[09:39] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: I guess apsell
[09:39] <alankila> or it might be more subtle and actually distort all audio but is only become really apparent at specific volume settings like 0.
[09:39] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: aspell
[09:39] <aaron11> helo
[09:39] <asfjio> dutchbuntu: how can i see what language packs i have?
[09:39] <ykphuah> transmission download more than one file when I ask it to download just a single file from the torrent, anyone else have this problem? or suggest me another good bt client. :)
[09:40] <apparle> westmi: right now all the effects are off but I still get 140fps in glxgears
[09:40] <ManDay> so, ive changed my devices to alsa all the way, do i have to restart or anything?
[09:40] <g_giulio> ykphuah: i use ktorrent and it goes faster...
[09:40] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: check your settings, mine asks which files. If i use my G1 phone it downloads all
[09:40] <asfjio> dutchbuntu: in synaptic i searched for aspell and aspell-my_language is selected as green to the left. do this mean that it is installed?
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> g_giulio: you'll need a tonne of qtlibs extra for that
[09:41] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: when I select to download only foo3, it will donwload foo3 in total and partial of foo2 and foo4
[09:41] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: and I have to go there and remove foo2 and foo4
[09:41] <ManDay> ActionParsnip, alankila , I've changed to ALSA and restarted my audio program - still the same. If I mute/turn down the volume of the mixer and the program still plays I get this ugly noise.
[09:42] <ykphuah> g_giulio: yeah I prefer not to pull down the whole kde framework. :P
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: you could try: cd ~/; ls -a
[09:42] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: yes
[09:42] <g_giulio> ActionParsnip: sorry i've not understand...
[09:42] <g_giulio> ok, sorry... kde...
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: if there is a .transmission folder, rename it after killing transmission
[09:42] <dragonrigs> .
[09:42] <g_giulio> framework...
[09:42] <g_giulio> ok,sorry...
[09:43] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: you guessing its configuration problem?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> g_giulio: yes, ktorrent relis on qt which is not part of an ubuntu default install
[09:43] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: make sure 'aspell' is checked, as well as 'aspell-<language_code>' for each language you want to check
[09:43] <alankila> ManDay: yes, I do believe that your sound card driver has a bug of some kind. It would be worth googling for this issue, there can be a workaround like adjusting other mixer controls but the volume, perhaps the PCM control.
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: could be, we only rename so we can easily rename back. let your current downloads finish
[09:43] <westmi> apparle, got any idea what glxgears is?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: or you may lose the data you have pulled down
[09:43] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: I have changed my download path to somewhere else though.
[09:43] <ManDay> alankila, okay
[09:44] <apparle> westmi: nope...can you tell
[09:44] <alankila> ManDay: what card is it, anyway?
[09:44] <mattdh01> g_giulio do you think
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: the config uration will still be stored in the same place no matter where you set the download path
[09:44] <Ingrater> has someone in here experience with a usb boot cd? (help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB)
[09:44] <g_giulio> mattdh01:about?
[09:44] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: alright I will try that.
[09:44] <oztrout> hello
[09:45] <cjs> What's the cannonical way to enable and disable servers in Ubuntu? By "disable" I mean, "won't start again at next reboot."?
[09:45] <westmi> sounds like some kind of driver issue...see http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/glxinfo.1.html
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: on the blank config you can set your download location as you have now and hopefully it will allow you to select individual files
[09:45] <alankila> cjs: there is a runlevel editor, see Administration/Services
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: you could also scour the settings to see if your settings are telling the client to download 100% of all torrents
[09:45] <westmi> apparle, see http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/glxinfo.1.html

[09:46] <rags> i've installed  apache2 mysql-server php5 php5-mysql, but php files are still not being parsed...
[09:46] <mohanad_> Hi
[09:46] <cjs> Can someone give me some clues as to how to find the name of whatever does this?
[09:46] <Kartagis> I've bound F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. any ideas? actually, mo matter what key I bind to lock screen, it doesn't work
[09:47] <illikawn> cjs try renaming /etc/rc.X/SserviceXX to KserviceXX rc.X being the initlevel and service XX the difference from 100
[09:47] <cjs> Ouch. I was hoping to avoid manually running through and, e.g., deleting all the links.
[09:47] <jamiewan> can someone advise me of best compatible printer for jaunty? is HP the best option
[09:47] <cjs> (At every rc level that has the darn thing.)
[09:47] <majuk> rags: what happens when you invoke phpinfo or similar generic php
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> jamiewan: there is no best, hp are very compatible though
[09:47] <illikawn> cjs read /etc/rc3.d/README
[09:48] <alankila> ManDay: ok. I can easily find complaints that there's some kind of noise coming from headphone output. Perhaps this guy has headphones muted and is experiencing your issue.
[09:48] <rags> majuk: it asks to downlod the file
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> jamiewan: http://hplipopensource.com/
[09:48] <jamiewan> ActionParsnip: thanx mate
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> jamiewan: see what is compatible there
[09:48] <rags> majuk: libapache2-mod-php5 is also installed
[09:48] <majuk> rags: Hmmm... have you restarted Apache since you installed PHP
[09:48] <cjs> Ok, so Ubuntu doesn't have the tool. I'll just install and use the Red Hat package.
[09:49] <westmi> apparle,  opps sorry, try this   http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/glxgears.1.html
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> hp printer + nvidia gfx + atheros wifi + realtek soundcard = winner
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> !alien | cjs
[09:49] <cjs> If I can remember what it was called, so I can install it. "chkcfg"?
[09:49] <rags> majuk: I insatalled everything in one swoop tht is aptitude apache2,php, etc....also I'm running Hardy
[09:49] <illikawn> cjs i dont know if ubuntu has the tools, its based on debian so maybe not
[09:49] <ykphuah> cjs: man update-rc.d
[09:49] <Ingrater> Hi, can some in here help me with a usb boot cd?
[09:49] <cjs> There's an ubuntu package of the red hat tool. I've used it. But I can't remember the freaking name.
[09:50] <ykphuah> cjs: the redhat tool is chkconfig
[09:50] <illikawn> svcadm type program right?
[09:50] <majuk> rags: Well, you may still have to manually enable PHP for apache in a config. I'm honestly not sure, I come from Gentoo where you have to do EVERYTHING by hand.
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> Ingrater: i use this: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows/
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> Ingrater: use a windows pc to make a usb boot device
[09:50] <nitheesh> i want to dump my svn repo from websvn server to ssh server
[09:50] <nitheesh> ?
[09:51] <nitheesh> any idea
[09:51] <westmi> apparle, try google that problem
[09:51] <omacblah> I hosed my system by stopping some core services.
[09:51] <nitheesh> ?
[09:51] <rags> majuk: I thought aptitude should take care of everything....so..how should I  got abt tht?
[09:51] <commander_> is there a way i can use my blackberry on here?
[09:51] <cjs> ykphuah: Yeah, I've played a bit with update-rc.d, and it's quite mysterious, not only not seeming to do anything, but also producing wonderful output such as:
[09:51] <nitheesh> any idea about that
[09:51] <cjs> Use of uninitialized value $ARGV[1] in pattern match (m//) at /usr/sbin/update-rc.d line 215.
[09:51] <cjs> But thanks for the chkconfig hint.
[09:51] <alankila> Good old Perl
[09:51] <nitheesh> i have tried with svndump and svn load
[09:51] <nitheesh> but i wont work
[09:52] <Ingrater> the problem is that the pc which it should run on can not boot from usb fothermore it does not detect usb drives in bios. So i have to rely on the linux kernel to detect the usb drives and mount it. I found a description how to do so: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[09:52] <illikawn> err chkconfig not svcadm oka
[09:52] <nitheesh> can i get help on
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> Ingrater: you can boot to a floppy with grub on it to then kick up the usb
[09:52] <nitheesh> this
[09:52] <majuk> rags: I don't know off the top of my head, I'm sure it's covered in the Apache docs. And as thorough as aptitude is, I'm willing to bet they would not enable PHP for you because of the inherent security risks it presents.
[09:52] <nitheesh> hello
[09:52] <omacblah> everything boots up to the gdm login screen but I can't type at the keyboard or mouse.  Any tricks I could do to add a command somewhere to just get keyboard and mouse back up....they're both usb.
[09:52] <rags> cjs:try sysv-rc-conf
[09:53] <Ingrater> unfortunaltely it fails mounting the root/ directory. Then the bus-box pops up. If i mount the root directory manually and return the system boots correctly
[09:53] <majuk> nitheesh: Someone will help if they think they can. Be patient.
[09:53] <nitheesh> ok
[09:53] <rags> majuk: k..thx..actually many online texts just mention a simple aptitude install
[09:54] <omacblah> luckily I have usb flash disk with ubuntu jaunty on it.  I can edit the hard drive startup scripts but everything I've tried doesn't do anything to make the usb mouse and keyboard work.
[09:54] <Ingrater> grub can only boot usb-drives which are predetected by bios. But the pc is so old it does not do this. So I need the linux kernel to first load the usb drivers and then boot from it.
[09:54] <majuk> rags: ...ok, so don't check the configs, whatever.
[09:54] <nitheesh> hi
[09:55] <cjs> rags: I think I'm going to stick with chkconfig; it also gives me a listing of what's on and off. Not that I can check that into revision control the way I can with BSD's /etc/rc.conf file, but at least it's an easy-to-read list.
[09:55] <sharperguy> Ok how come the "at" command suddenly no longer does anything? That's twice it was supposed to wake me up and it didnt.
[09:56] <alankila> hm, it might be awesome to use my mobile phone's USB capabilities to turn it into a boot disk for PCs.
[09:56] <alankila> Since it can pretend to be USB storage I guess it will do the same for BIOS as well.
[09:56] <rags> cjs: ubuntu has problems with chkconfig...I faced a lot of problesm related to inserv..sysv-rc-conf is very simmilar
[09:56] <omacblah> at command is controlled by the atd demon...start it.
[09:57] <cjs> Really? I can believe it. How Linux ended up with sucky SysV startup scripts I have no idea.
[09:57] <omacblah> Linux tried to be everything compatible with Unix AT&T style.
[09:58] <omacblah> ubuntu and debian decided to try something new and go with a new infrastructure called upstart.  When exactly they made the move I don't know.
[09:58] <Leenux> i get error from my apache log
[09:59] <Leenux> /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2: undefined symbol: FT_Library_SetLcdFilter
[09:59] <rags> cjs: well ubuntu at least uses that...if u install chkconf it will mess with all your startup scripts and every package you try to install therafter will throw up insserv warnings...
[09:59] <NET||abuse> hey guys. anyone use banshee here? Looking for a good source of online radio stations for it, or a magnatune/ jamendo plugin like in rhythmbox?
[09:59] <Leenux> i try to search package libcairo.so.2, but nit found
[09:59] <cjs> rags: Oh, suck. Well, thanks for the warning.
[09:59] <Leenux> please help me to fix it
[10:00] <alankila> Leenux: contained in package libcairo2. Try apt-get --reinstall install libcairo2
[10:01] <cjs> rags: Ah, sysv-rc-conf is not the same as the sysvrc command.
[10:01] <jeeves_Moss> how can I set up a random number generator to make a random "wait time" to be put in @ the end of my script?
[10:01] <nitheesh>  Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[10:01] <nitheesh> any idea?
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> nitheesh: have you been messing around with your host name
[10:02] <nitheesh> so wat should i do
[10:02] <nitheesh> ?
[10:02] <bullgard4> Where in the file hierarchy does Ubuntu show a contingent Bluetooth device?
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> nitheesh: make sure the host name in /etc/hostname     is the one resolved to 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.1.1 in /etc/hosts
[10:02] <omacblah> nitheesh: ignore this warning....it always pops up and even if you have https configured correctly.
[10:03] <cjs> Gah. Who actually uses run levels anyway, outside of single and multi-user?
[10:03] <Qu4R0w> any1 can tell me how to cennect to wireless with manual mac and manual ip?
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> Qu4R0w: network manager will do that, just click on IPv4 config and set your own IP address
[10:04] <Qu4R0w> or can i make .sh script?
[10:07] <jeeves_Moss> bullgard4, can you give me a hand with making a random wait time for the end of a script?
[10:07] <surma_> hej :)
[10:08] <surma_> cześć :)

[10:11] <jeeves_Moss> I'm trying to make a random wait time @ the end of a mailx script.  I need to be able to have it run the mailx script, then generate a random whole number between 1-5, then have the script pause till the "wait" is over, then move onto the next email in the list
[10:12] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_Moss: have you asked in #bash or websearched?
[10:12] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: just found out that its "normal" -> http://forum.transmissionbt.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7477&sid=7d45f98849176158dc7ea5f92bc0c9c8
[10:12] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, yes, I asked in bash, no one is there

[10:15] <fantomas> Hi. How to change font sizes for KDE apps on Ubuntu?
[10:16] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, ok, so in bash, it's the var's name, then the command?

[10:18] <albertico> hi I have a serious problem with apt
[10:18] <albertico> http://pastebin.com/m7f38a489
[10:18] <albertico> can someone help please, I have an installed package broken and i cant remove or reinstal for fixing
[10:18] <albertico> can anybody help, please http://pastebin.com/m7f38a489
[10:18] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, this is what I'm using http://pastebin.ca/1536102 and I need to insert an echo command in there to let me know what e-mail has been sent, and the random wait time
[10:18] <Steil> whoah wtf is this: "As our way of thanking you for your positive contributions to Slashdot, you are eligible to disable advertising."
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> albertico: sudo touch /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/postrm/update-ogre-plugins     is my guess
[10:19] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, did you get a sec to see that post?
[10:21] <albertico> ActionParsnip: it doesn exists
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_Moss: then use the random number generation in the post i gave to wait a  random amount of time. You could ask for the command to send the email to return a value to see if it was sent
[10:22] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, how would I do that?  do I put the random wait in after ${email}?
[10:22] <fantomas> omacblah: how this related to KDE?
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_Moss: try it, i code very basic scripts that do a lot of stuff, nothing like emailing though
[10:22] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, lol.  ok
[10:22] <jeeves_Moss> thanks
[10:23] <gsedej> Hi! New to servers. Made ssh, it worked, installed torrentflux (mysql, apache2,...) and it doesent work. Now ssh desn't work (... port 22: Connection refused). I have router, but I forwarded right ports. What is the metter?
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> albertico: i know, thats why we use touch to create it to satisfy the uninstaller
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> albertico: or installer, whichever its not importnat
[10:26] <cjs> What init.d script starts the kvm guests?
[10:26] <omacblah> gsedej:  If you have ufw up and running, you might want to see if it is still blocking some ports that stop you from doing what you want.  I'm also quite certain your ports on the router aren't open for all your apps either.

[10:36] <Jyxt> rather annoying
[10:36] <ActionParsnip> Jyxt: you only needed to install the manager, it is dependant on compiz so would install it anyway
[10:36] <Jyxt> anyone know a fix?

[10:42] <Ivoz> Hi there, I installed apache but when I run apache from terminal it says bad user name. I setup a username for it and changed what it said in envvars but its doing the same thing.. anyone knoe how to set it up correctly?
[10:43] <Jyxt> and now i apparantly have no window manager
[10:44] <nmvictor> Ivoz: did you restart it after making the changes? sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart is the command.
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> Jyxt: you can press alt+f2 and type   metacity --replace
[10:46] <Ivoz> nmvictor, i did that, says it can't determine FQDN, also typing apache at console still says apache2: bad user name ${APACHE_RUN_USER}
[10:46] <Jyxt> ActionParsnip: thanks, i did xfwm4 --replace and it seems to have fixed things
[10:47] <Pitch> Alexia , can you help me?
[10:47] <bullgard4> Where in the file hierarchy does Ubuntu show a contingent Bluetooth device?
[10:47] <Alexia> Pitch, Sure can
[10:48] <Alexia> Pitch, can i talk to you in a private chat, its easier for me
[10:48] <Pitch> Alexia yes
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> Jyxt: yeah you just swapped out compiz for xfwm, you can now try switch back to compiz if you want
[10:48] <Pitch> Alexia, but how
[10:48] <Alexia> Pitch, are you using xchat?
[10:49] <Pitch> alexia, no  opera chat
[10:50] <Alexia> Pitch, ok

[10:51] <nitheesh> The command could not be located because '/bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
[10:51] <nitheesh> any idea
[10:51] <nmvictor> Ivoz: is that how your file looks?
[10:51] <Alexia> bullgard4, install the gnome-bluetooth package from the repository
[10:52] <nitheesh> ?
[10:52] <nitheesh> Command 'su' is available in '/bin/su'
[10:52] <nitheesh> The command could not be located because '/bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
[10:52] <Polarina> nitheesh: Be patient.
[10:53] <nitheesh> Ok
[10:53] <nitheesh> Command 'su' is available in '/bin/su'
[10:53] <nitheesh> The command could not be located because '/bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
[10:53] <Jyxt> ActionParsnip: thanks...actually reloading the default wm then back to compiz seems to have fixed things
[10:53] <Polarina> nitheesh: Be patient.
[10:53] <Alexia> nitheesh, please be patient
[10:53] <Ivoz> nmvictor: yes
[10:53] <Polarina> nitheesh: What does  echo $PATH  give you?
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> Jyxt: imho compiz is a bit flakey and chews a bit of resources too so i dont use it, it can also make things misbhave so watch out
[10:54] <Ivoz> nmvictor: do i need to create that user and group manually as well?
[10:54] <nitheesh> echo "export PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
[10:54] <nmvictor> Ivoz: no, mine is just like that and its working fine

[10:57] <Polarina> nitheesh: Have you modified your PATH environment variable?
[10:57] <nitheesh> yes
[10:57] <Leenux> anyone can help me ?
[10:57] <samitheberber> nitheesh: oh, you have lost your default path
[10:57] <nitheesh> now wat to do
[10:57] <nmvictor> just the same code thats in the test.php file, its not formated.
[10:57] <bullgard4> Leenux: Please do not replace interpunction with the Enter key.
[10:57] <Polarina> nitheesh: Fix it.
[10:58] <MatBoy> why is swfdec integrated anyway :S
[10:58] <samitheberber> nitheesh: echo "export PATH=\$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
[10:59] <samitheberber> nitheesh: that's why it didn't work
[10:59] <nitheesh> yes
[10:59] <nitheesh> now wat should i do
[10:59] <samitheberber> nitheesh: edit the ~/.bashrc
[10:59] <nitheesh> wat should i edit there
[11:00] <nmvictor> samitheberber: just the same code thats in the test.php file, its not formated.
[11:00] <samitheberber> what kind of lines do you have in there, which are relevat to source PATH

[11:01] <RobUk> Morning all, I have jaunty, 2.6.28-15 kernal cant get nvidia card to run, nor can i run the nvidia-xconfig becouse i need to have it plugged into the nvidia port to pic up the monitor details. any ideas
[11:01] <RobUk> rescue mode freezes
[11:01] <nitheesh> any idea
[11:01] <samitheberber> nitheesh: give the output of: cat ~/.bashrc | grep "source PATH"
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> RobUk: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf   and change the driver from nvidia to nv
[11:02] <RobUk> tried that , also set to vesa as well
[11:02] <nitheesh> bash: grep: command not found
[11:02] <nitheesh> Command 'cat' is available in '/bin/cat'
[11:02] <nitheesh> The command could not be located because '/bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> RobUk: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> RobUk: then restart x
[11:03] <samitheberber> nitheesh: do you have another user, which has sudo-right?
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> RobUk: you could also use: sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180
[11:03] <nitheesh> root user only
[11:03] <RobUk> problem is to run it it needs to be connected to nvidia port so that the port pics up the monitor details. can get into command line from the rescu mode as it freezes
[11:04] <samitheberber> nitheesh: so you can log in with root?
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> RobUk: ive never heard of an "nvidia port" can you please clarify this
[11:06] <Leenux> ActionParsnip: i get error when run Xvfb in my ubuntu 8.10, (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed

[11:08] <tarelerulz> I just had windows system Vista just restart and keeps restarting for no reason. I think it might be virus .  Is there any Linux anti-virus I could use to scan  windows with ?

[11:09] <Alexia> tarelerulz, you can install clam-av
[11:09] <Steil> hey
[11:09] <mumei> uhh.. hi.. can anybody tell me how do i track software installed? i know theres synaptic but theres like a thousand stuff in there.. i just dont know where to look.. cause sometimes i uninstall stuff with add/remove but they are still around like the restricted extras.. any help much appreciated thanks in advance =)
[11:09] <Steil> Is there a program that'll put a bandwidth limit on my computer so that once i reach a certain download limit things will throttle?
[11:10] <Steil> i want to put it on my gateway
[11:10] <imduffy15> Hi, should i have a ipv6 settings tab on the network-manager?
[11:10] <bullgard4> mumei: Despite your statement Synapric is still the best tool to look for installed software.
[11:11] <bullgard4> s/Synapric/Synaptic/
[11:11] <mumei> bullgard4: ok thanks.. ill go check the manual for synaptic
[11:11] <Cheery> how to get filled manpages?
[11:12] <Cheery> for instance, it seems like I wouldn't get anything for man 3 mmap or man 3 open
[11:12] <westmi> Vanion,right click the files and then left click remove, do that to each of the files
[11:12] <Steil> Hi guys, I have a problem where I go way over my bandwidth allocation, is there a program that I can put on my gateway that will throttle external network speeds when a set limit is reached?
[11:12] <Vanion> westmi: remove the files?:O
[11:13] <MatBoy> what kind of flash plugin are you guys using ?
[11:13] <westmi> Vanion, yes- you have to remove finished files or they will start every time you do transmission
[11:13] <Cheery> damn you, it's like this channel would be full of noobs looking for answers these days. utterly useless. :/ better rely on google or smaller channels.
[11:14] <Vanion> westmi: I want to keep the torrents in Transmission to seed:D but the problem is that they begin to download again after every restart
[11:15] <westmi> well are you sure its downloading, or seeding? i dont know how you can seed and download, ???
[11:15] <mumei> Cheery: everybody was once a noob... nobody can be pro in one day..  and they need a place to start =)
[11:15] <Steil> they need to RTFM
[11:15] <MatBoy> Cheery: indeed...
[11:16] <MatBoy> Cheery: but flash is a pain these days...
[11:16] <Vanion> westmi: Of course i can't seed them when they begin to download the files again
[11:16] <Cheery> mumei: yeah, though there should be guys on answering the stuff, it's like the frustation capacity of this channel is filled in seconds and then lots of those simple questions go unanswered.
[11:16] <mumei> Steil: LOL kkkkkkkkk ill keep that in my noob mind from today onwards..
[11:17] <Cheery> MatBoy: sure it is, actually flash is a stick in the arse of webkind.
[11:17] <westmi> vanion,just get deluge and forget transmission-its much better
[11:17] <MatBoy> Cheery: that is why I have so much pain on the toilet every time
[11:18] <mumei> Cheery: actually i think this place is quite ok... if you go on smaller channels.. you dont get somebody answering until about.. a few hours? xD
[11:18] <Steil> Hi guys, I have a problem where I go way over my bandwidth allocation, is there a program that I can put on my gateway that will throttle external network speeds when a set limit is reached?
[11:18] <Vanion> westmi: Ok  , think i'll try it , thanks anyway =)
[11:20] <bullgard4> Cheery: With me, 'man 3 open' obtains a reesonable result. (Ubuntu 9.04).
[11:20] <kosz> hi, can anyone tell me where the config file for apache resides in ubuntu ? I'm trying to add authz_svn_module to an already exisitng svn setup
[11:20] <bullgard4> s/resonable/resonable/
[11:21] <Cheery> bullgard4: yeah, but manual pages need to be installed for that
[11:21] <bullgard4> Cheery: Yes. Without input there will be no output.
[11:22] <Cheery> anyway, one other linux channel helped me and told the correct packages to install.
[11:22] <kosz> anyone ?
[11:22] <Cheery> now I have the pages.
[11:23] <OsamaK_> Is there a package for emacs23 for ubuntu 9.04 somewhere?
[11:24] <kosz> how can i install a new mod for apache with apt-get in ubuntu ?
[11:25] <OsamaK_> kosz: which mod?
[11:26] <OsamaK_> kosz: if you want mod_python, they try 'apt-get install libapache2-mod-python'
[11:26] <achadwick> kosz: "apt-cache search libapache2-mod-"  (minus the quotes) to see what's available, "apt-get install libapache2-mod-THING" to install.
[11:29] <kosz> thanks guys , sorry for the late reply. i am looking to install authz_svn_module , i'll try the suggestion right now
[11:29] <omac> Ok.  For those of you who don't want to lose you keyboard or mouse input, PLEASE DON'T TURN OFF THE "DBUS" SYSTEM ADMIN SERVICE.  Immediately after turning it off, you'll be in a state that you won'd be able to type or use the mouse.  In other words it's ugly, if you don't have an Ubuntu CD/USB Boot disk handy.  To fix it, you need to check out your /etc/init.d/rc2.d/ directory and then make sure the dbus service has S12dbus linked to ../init.
[11:29] <omac> d/dbus.  If the file isn't in there, your mouse or keyboard just won't work.
[11:30] <kosz> OsamaK , achadwick , i tried : apt-cache search libapache2-mod-authz-svn , but nothing was found
[11:30] <illikawn> omac bsd will ctrl-alt-f1 from X with a bad config :)
[11:30] <Steil> Hi guys, I have a problem where I go way over my bandwidth allocation, is there a program that I can put on my gateway that will throttle external network speeds when a set limit is reached?
[11:31] <syntax> if you lock your self out on the login screen is there a way to pass it?
[11:31] <illikawn> im not getting any smarter
[11:31] <omac> lucky for your in BSD, but this dbus service being turned off was ugly.
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> Steil: you cant go over the speed allocated to you by your provider
[11:31] <imduffy15> Can I manage ipv6 connections with network-manager?
[11:32] <omac> It's hard to go to ctrl-alt-f1 when the keyboard isn't working.
[11:32] <omac> good night.
[11:32] <ActionParsnip> omac: boot to recovery root console then
[11:33] <OsamaK_> kosz: I think that is a file, not a package. you should put it in /apache2/modules. so I think you need to ask apache guys about it.
[11:35] <OsamaK_> kosz: try http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/
[11:35] <RobUk> msg Alexia hi there
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> RobUk: start it with a '/'
[11:38] <syntax> where can you get audacious themes at?
[11:38] <karme> hello
[11:38] <achadwick> kosz: the package you want is libapache2-svn (the Subversion modules are bundled together).
[11:39] <Enissay> I'm using UberScript for XChat, when trying to slap someone i got this "Usage: TIMER [-refnum <num>] [-repeat <num>] <seconds> <command>"... how to use it please?
[11:39] <achadwick> kosz: consult the docs in /usr/share/doc/libapache2-svn whemn you have the package installed. In particular any README.Debian for Debian/Ubuntu-specific oddities.
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> syntax www.gnome-look.org seems to have some
[11:40] <nefa> hi! does anyone know why the update manager shows more updates than 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade'? I thought both methods were equivalent, but apparently they're not. Update manager shows me 11 important security updates, whereas 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' gets me: '3 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded'. Any idea what's wrong here?
[11:41] <richardcavell> When I use apt-get it offers to remove certain packages, but I want them to stay.  Is there some way of flagging a package as being used so apt-get doesn't want to autoremove it?
[11:41] <westmi> Enissay,  try #xchat
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> nefa: the not upgraded ones are held until their deps are met. I personally only use apt-get as I find it quicker than synaptic
[11:42] <The_Jag> hi all, I still have problem with flash in firefox: all videos are played stuttery and cpu always hit high usage while a page with flash in it is shown in the browser. any help?
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: can you give the output of: uname -a    please
[11:43] <tarelerulz1> I am using clam-av and it says you have to edit  it config file ? What does it mean .  What do you do to it if anyone knows
[11:43] <The_Jag> ok
[11:43] <The_Jag> wait a sec
[11:44] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: here it is: Linux Jag-Laptop 2.6.28-15-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 18 18:40:08 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: ok 32bit should be ok
[11:45] <The_Jag> i'm using shiretoko as a browser, but each browser I tried (firefox 3.0, opera, shiretoko) gives the same problem :(
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: killall firefox; sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree flashplugin-installer; sudo apt-get clean
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: shiretoko == firefox
[11:46] <The_Jag> yes but ver. 3.5.2
[11:46] <The_Jag> if i'm correct
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: yes but firefox 2.0 is still firefox also
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: once you have got rid of the old plugin and closed all firefoxes. simply visit: http://www.rathergood.com/blode2
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: the plugin will be offered to you
[11:48] <Enissay> westmi, kk, thks :
[11:48] <Alexia> tarelerulz1, http://techgurulive.com/2009/01/13/how-to-install-and-configure-clamav-on-ubuntu/
[11:48] <test375> anyone know of any socks5-proxy-server package you could install easily? ssh is going waaay to slow...
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> test375: ssh is text only so should be fast
[11:49] <Amnesia> hi, I've got a simple question, anyone who's able to answer it?
[11:49] <test375> hmm
[11:49] <zyxxy> ActionParsnip: ssh can do so much more than just remote shell ;)
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> !ask | Amnesia
[11:49] <Polarina> Amnesia: Depends on the question.
[11:49] <Amnesia> m'kay
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> zyxxy: true
[11:50] <Amnesia> well I was wondering, when isntalling a distribution from scrap
[11:50] <Amnesia> how is it possible to install a packagemanager
[11:50] <test375> i only get around 300KB/s with a 100MBit/s connection now
[11:50] <pozic> How can I get my sound on Ubuntu to work? 03:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs CA0106 Soundblaster The driver is loaded: snd_ca0106 33792  1
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> you mean scratch
[11:50] <zyxxy> test375: what exactly do you want to do?
[11:50] <test375> what could be wrong?
[11:50] <Amnesia> from source, but how would it be possible to install the compiler?
[11:50] <pozic> When I do alsamixer, I see lots of bars, but I don't hear anything, even with everything raised.
[11:50] <nefa> ActionParsnip: I now did an update on the console, the 3 packages were installed, but the 4 other packages are still kept back. After it was finished, update manager popped up, offering me 8 updates.
[11:50] <test375> browse the web =P
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> Amnesia: the installer is a binary and simply copied into place, it can then be used to install the rest
[11:51] <Amnesia> installer of the compiler?
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> Amnesia: you're getting into the realms of how is a compiler compiled etc
[11:51] <Amnesia> or is the compiler just binary?
[11:51] <zyxxy> test375: via an insecure connection? if it doesn't have to be encrypted, you could just disable it
[11:51] <Amnesia> yup
[11:51] <test375> hmm
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> Amnesia: the first thing installed will be the installer, its files are copied around so that it will work, this can then be used to install oter apps
[11:53] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: ....
[11:53] <test375> how can i do that in putty? =P
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> a compiler is a binary, a good example here is gentoo, you download a compiler binary, compile a new compiler using source to replace it thenyou can compile the rest
[11:54] <kindofabuzz> how can i make it to where when i try to save a file in IDLE, the save window doesn't show hidden folders?
[11:54] <test375> lul
[11:54] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: no download...
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> test375: you can ssh and use lynx2 or you can use x forwarding to x forward the browser of your choice, it wil rn on the remote pc but be displayed on the client system
[11:55] <TimothyA> kindofabuzz; sounds like an security issue you have there
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: weird
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: do you have other flash plugins install like swfdec or gnash?
[11:55] <kindofabuzz> TimothyA, security issue?
[11:55] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: i still can play the flash file on your paga :(
[11:55] <The_Jag> let me see
[11:55] <The_Jag> probably, since i didn't make the config on this system...
[11:57] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: I have both
[11:57] <crzedmonk> hey anyone here?
[11:57] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: uninstall them?
[11:57] <Alexia> crzedmonk, nope
[11:57] <crzedmonk> I have the stupidest question ever asked this channel!
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: yes if you have more than one they fight
[11:57] <Alexia> crzedmonk, lol what is it;
[11:57] <Wizzup> I was wondering, is it possible to upgrade to mpd 0.15 using the package manager? (Current is 0.13 in Jaunty)
[11:57] <nefa> ActionParsnip: ...so the dependencies don't seem to explain the difference.
[11:58] <test375> hmm
[11:58] <test375> =P
[11:58] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: i also have adobe-flashplugin
[11:58] <crzedmonk> I recently switched to debian from ubuntu in ubuntu there is a notes program the icon looks yellow and it saves all the notes your working on up top what is the name of this program?
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: get rid of that too
[11:58] <buch> I have this problem, when i updated kernel, by a accident i chosed to keep the old menu.lst - any one can help me boot with the new kernel?
[11:58] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: ok
[11:58] <Alexia> Wizzup, you can use the debian package installer and would sort of be using the package manager
[11:59] <karanga> crzedmonk: TomBoy Notes?
[11:59] <Alexia> crzedmonk, Tomboy
[11:59] <crzedmonk> quick I will ask al gores the interweb
[11:59] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: ok now i visit your page again?
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: clos all web browsers first
[12:00] <crzedmonk> YES
[12:00] <crzedmonk> thank you
[12:00] <crzedmonk> best nerds ever!
[12:00] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: done already
[12:00] <Alexia> crzedmonk, LOL
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: then go to that page again, its got a wacky anim on it so you should be offered flash
[12:01] <crzedmonk> Alexia: I love this tomboy
[12:01] <crzedmonk> so swift
[12:01] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: the animation started without any prompt
[12:01] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: uhm
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: then you have flash, is it running ok?
[12:02] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: now yes
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: ok try other stuff
[12:02] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: without stuttering as of now
[12:02] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: and no cpu usage
[12:02] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: very TY!!!
[12:02] <digital1> hi
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: np bro
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: multiple flash plugins = problems
[12:03] <digital1> i have install ubuntu 9.04 but display not able
[12:03] <dragonrigs> hi
[12:03] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: true, and multiple ppl working on the same machine pretendint to be linux master = huge disaster... ;)
[12:03] <mwarning> Hi, I have an ubuntu installation with no user, only root (password is set). But the ubuntu login screen won't allow me to login, not even for the failsave terminal. Any idea how to access the console? I use vmware and it doesn't forward the STRG+ALT+F1.
[12:03] <dragonrigs> what the hell
[12:03] <dragonrigs> !spam
[12:03] <dragonrigs> !wait
[12:04] <dragonrigs> how do u spell patiance
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: true, thats why you restrict access to people who will break it most
[12:04] <crzedmonk> how is ubuntu 9?
[12:04] <zicho> i run a shellscript in my conky using rhythmbox-client, this forces rhythmbox to open whenever i run conky. can i disable this somehow?
[12:04] <digital1> how i can see display?
[12:05] <digital1> i listen only sound and display is black
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> crzedmonk: runs ok here
[12:05] <digital1> help me
[12:05] <crzedmonk> nice
[12:06] <crzedmonk> I kinda miss ubuntu but not really
[12:06] <crzedmonk> I enjoy lenny alot
[12:06] <crzedmonk> aptitude!
[12:06] <Alexia> crzedmonk, I love Ubuntu 9 its great
[12:07] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: right...! Last thing to bother you: Alsa is not discovering my soundcard in my laptop (Asus W5Fm), I found a solution to just recompile the alsa libs and drivers with forced address, now the question: since alsa said that my pc should be recognised from start (driver: hda-intel) do I have to do something else or each time I upgrade kernel I have to do the recompiling again?
[12:07] <Alexia> crzedmonk, I would us debian but I hate that they stay so far behind in the packages
[12:07] <zyxxy> crzedmonk: i switched to 9.04 from mac os and couldn't be happier :)
[12:07] <aaron11> does anyone know how to auto identify
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: you will need to recompile the kernel modules again for the new kernel
[12:09] <digital1> little help for me?
[12:09] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: ok, I can make a script for that I imagine right?
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: you do not need a new kernel if everything is running ok so ifyour system is fine ignore the kernel updates
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> The_Jag: sure you can script anything
[12:09] <karanga> 9.10 alpha has sorted the issues with the Intel Video drivers performance as well which was my only gripe with 9.04
[12:09] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: ok nice! I try and see what happens :D
[12:09] <The_Jag> @ActionParsnip: TY again!
[12:10] <crunch> rg
[12:11] <Stivo> Hello. I'm having a problem installing the webmin deb file. I've downloaded it, but it's failing on dependancies with I try to use dpkg to install it. apt-get just says it can't find the package. How to I make this work?
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> !webmin | Stivo
[12:11] <Stivo> ebox - ok.
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> Stivo: why do you need webmin?
[12:12] <crunch> oh my, don't use webmin
[12:12] <crunch> every
[12:12] <Stivo> It's what I'm familiar with when it comes to configuring services, and I'll be doing most of the management remotely.
[12:12] <crunch> one knows that
[12:12] <crunch> oh my
[12:13] <Stivo> So where do I get this ebox thingy?
[12:13] <crunch> Stivo, I would suggest you take this opportunity to learn better ways of administering services
[12:13] <Stivo> crunch, I agree with you there - my methods are certainly out-dated.
[12:13] <crunch> Stivo,  it is not so much the outdated-ness, as the insecurity and instability webmin brings
[12:14] <bullgard4> Where in the file hierarchy does Ubuntu show a contingent Bluetooth device?
[12:14] <Stivo> Well I'm happy to look at better options.
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> Stivo: services can easilyt be managed by ssh, what particulr services?
[12:14] <crunch> Stivo, may I ask what services you are configuring?
[12:14] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[12:15] <silv3r_m00n> how to keep the lcd bright when on battery .... in netbook remix
[12:15] <crunch> exactly. You can SSH in, or if you are feeling all GUIy you can use tightVNC etc.
[12:15] <hateball> silv3r_m00n: under screensaver options iirc... not on NBR atm
[12:15] <Stivo> The server I've setup is a glorified router and file server. I just want a simple web based interface to configure those services... like iptables samba and the DNS services.
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Stivo: you can also use X forwarding (defualt in openssh-server) to run the gui apps on the server but view them on the client system
[12:15] <remoteCTR1> hi all!
[12:15] <remoteCTR1> how do i extract the contents of a .deb package?
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Stivo: samba can be really easily managed via /etc/samba/smb.conf
[12:16] <crzedmonk> what are some cool apps that I do not know about?
[12:16] <crunch> web based interface? I feel ill. Very ill. Oh my, the state of people wanting to use *nix nowdays really causes me concern. How rude.
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> remoteCTR1: deb x <deb file>    i believe
[12:16] <Stivo> ActionParsnip I'm not the best when it comes to code in the raw files.
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> crzedmonk: depends what you wanna do
[12:16] <crzedmonk> ActionParsnip: stuff!
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Stivo: once you see one layout for a folder yuo have seen em all
[12:17] <remoteCTR1> ActionParsnip, thanks i will try that
[12:17] <crzedmonk> I like messing with bash commands and things that force me to learn
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> crzedmonk: well i could tell yo uof graphic editting apps but if you arent interested in that its a waste of time
[12:17] <crzedmonk> GIMP!
[12:17] <remoteCTR1> ActionParsnip, err... no such command...
[12:18] <dyane> 2
[12:18] <dyane> trap
[12:18] <crzedmonk> man I wish I had the patience to compile gentoo
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> remoteCTR1: dpkg -x <deb file>
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> crzedmonk: its not hard
[12:19] <Stivo> Has anoyne setup Asterisk on Ubuntu server?
[12:19] <remoteCTR1> ActionParsnip, right, thanks!:)
[12:19] <crzedmonk> ActionParsnip: I have heard horro stories
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> crzedmonk: just have the handbook by your side, you'll be fine
[12:19] <Alexia> remoteCTR1, do you still need help with .deb files/
[12:20] <crzedmonk> YAAY Handbook!
[12:21] <Alexia> crzedmonk, yah i think thats the sign of when you really are a linux UBERgeek is when you can compile gentoo or slackware or especially LFS
[12:21] <cwillu> samba keeps stealing the names of other hosts on the network when I turn it on (where turn it on == install it without doing anything beyond the default config files)
[12:21] <Alexia> remoteCTR1, you can also use fileroller to extract .deb files
[12:22] <cwillu> this is a Bad Thing (tm), as it means all shares on the network stop working (because I don't have them on this server)
[12:22] <cwillu> what gives?
[12:22] <bazhang> crzedmonk, did you have a support question?
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> crzedmonk: you can use similar to emerge in ubuntu with apt-build
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: how do you mean by "stealing names"?
[12:23] <Woodi> hi ppls, lastly i upgraded ubuntu and after reboot only / partition is mounted, no any editor program (maybe on /usr?), no sudo too.. so no root - should i reinstall ubuntu ?
[12:23] <Stivo> So I'm trying to install ebox now because it's apparently supported better by ubuntu, but apt-get is telling me it can't find a package called ebox. What now?
[12:23] <cwillu> ActionParsnip, I install samba, and then machines that had shares (say, //hp_server) show the default samba shares instead of the shares that are actually on the machine
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: conflict of hostname?
[12:24] <cwillu> ActionParsnip, other hosts on the network resolve names to the samba server's ip address (say, //hp_server stops resolving to its ip, and instead resolves to ubuntu's)
[12:24] <cwillu> ActionParsnip, not a chance
[12:24] <cwillu> ActionParsnip, _every_ hostname on the network does it
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: its possible though. i assume nothing
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: i see
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: are any of the other systems linux+samba based?
[12:25] <RoRza> what's the command to display a path of the current folder ?
[12:25] <cwillu> ActionParsnip, there's an nas server which I know runs samba, but its been trouble-free for these folks for a few years
[12:25] <dutchbuntu> Rorza: pwd
[12:25] <cwillu> otherwise, yes
[12:25] <cwillu> the rest are winxp
[12:25] <RoRza> from command line ...something  similar to whoami
[12:26] <RoRza> dutchbuntu: thx
[12:26] <cwillu> ActionParsnip, my hunch is that samba is acting as the browse master, and royally screwing it up
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: ok, you could make sure the samba box is in the same workgroup as the rest, if not try a different one
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: sounds like a possibility
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: definately log a bug though, thats some crazy activity

[12:34] <ActionParsnip> man pwd = http://www.manpagez.com/man/1/pwd/
[12:35] <Alexia> remoteCTR1, im sorry i thought you could but if you cant, then this command should work fine dpkg -x filename.deb foldername
[12:36] <remoteCTR1> Alexia, yeah thanks, ActionParsnip said that already;)  (fileroller shows a completely different content than dpkg -x does, checki it out!;)  )

[12:40] <joaopinto> arand, check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelOops
[12:40] <bazhang> Steil, this is a support channel. chit chat elsewhere please
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> remoteCTR1: i dont use fileroller, takes too long
[12:40] <fedorus> quit
[12:42] <remoteCTR1> ActionParsnip, i only use it if i want to look into somethings contents but not for the actual extractioni...
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> remoteCTR1: makes sense
[12:43] <arand> joaopinto: Cheers, but unfortunately the Oops/panic does not show up in dmesg.
[12:44] <remoteCTR1> ActionParsnip, do you happen to know what bash variable contains the success/failure value of the last command?
[12:45] <Myrtti> remoteCTR1: $?  iirc
[12:45] <dutchbuntu> remoteCTR1: or $exit
[12:45] <muhammed_> hi
[12:45] <remoteCTR1> Myrtti, dutchbuntu thanks guys!
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> i think its just $ let me websearch
[12:46] <hbekel> remoteCTR1: it's $?
[12:46] <Alexia> Cash? can I have some lol
[12:46] <hbekel> ActionParsnip: nope
[12:47] <dutchbuntu> remoteCTR1 hbekel and Myrtti are right
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> or you could be more absolute and use result=command then perform logic on $result
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> hbekel: but yeah $? is looking right
[12:48] <serialsito> $? report the exit code
[12:48] <Mark__> what does an asterisk signify in a history entry

[12:50] <Flomar> i`m back with my nvidia problem :(
[12:50] <serialsito> this update the locate db
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> actually it would be 'sudo updatedb' i think.
[12:50] <serialsito> iep
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> the locate datebase gets auto-updated like once a day I recall.
[12:51] <Flomar> i upgraded to the last nvidia site driver 185.18.31 from nvidia site... all other drivers (ubuntu tested) failed
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: i uninstall it. its silly
[12:51] <orochi> tf
[12:51] <Flomar> but i guess is a X issue but i don`t know how to fix it...
[12:51] <cwillu> ActionParsnip, uninstalling locate is silly
[12:51] <orochi> whoops! need more screens :>
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> I use it all the time ActionParsnip  :)  but i also got it set to index my err...  video  collection. :)
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> This is linux - do what you want.. silly or not.
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> cwillu: i prefer to use find, i can then use exec after it too :)
[12:52] <Flomar> i get renderization errors, the screen mess up with diagonal render lines
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> Compared to the indexing disk-trashing i see done on windows.. i will stick with locate.
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> I use locate for totally diffrent tasks then i do 'find'
[12:53] <dvz-> heya, is it possible to install fedora (from livecd) on a 2nd external hd from within ubuntu? (rather than restarting into the livecd)
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> mind you its rare i need it, i have a cool filing system for my own data
[12:53] <cwillu> I do too:  I dump everything in to any folder I want, and then when I want to find something, I type "locate something", and I find it :)
[12:54] <shp1> does anyone know how to uninstall the software installed using a .bin file ?
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> dvz-: you'll need to install fedora in the standard fedora way and keep your internal drive as the bootable disk
[12:55] <cwillu> shp1, bin is a made-up fileextension that usually means an executable of some form.  Generally made by companies that feel the need to reinvent their own installers.  Hopefully they just dumped stuff into /usr/local/.../, or they provide an --uninstall or equivilent
[12:55] <hbekel> shp1: try blah.bin --help or similar, and if you're lucky, they provide an uninstall option
[12:55] <cwillu> shp1, but you'd have to check their documentation
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> shp1:  totally installs on the bin  - 'bin' could do ANYTHING - and has no guarentee it even has an uninstall feature. This is why you shoudl avoid bin.
[12:55] <hbekel> shp1: in any case look at the file to see what it does
[12:55] <dvz-> ActionParsnip: my internal drive is dying, and i'm trying to set it up so that it has grub info and menu.lst on sdb1, a swap primary (sdb2), and LVM (sdb3)...but fedora insists on overriding my preformatted/partitioned disk and it's frustrating. meh.
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> totally depends on the .bin i mean. :)
[12:55] <cwillu> shp1, if you can find a deb of the software, that is almost always preferable (somebody might have packaged it up into a repository on launchpad, for instance)
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> shp1: or look where it installs (most likey /opt) and you may find an uninstaller
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> shp1:  or if i have to use .bin i fiure out how to install it on a 'per user' basis so it goes in the users home dir. or /opt
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> dvz-: ask in #fedora they may be able to tell you how to beat their installer into submission
[12:57] <muhammed> hi alla
[12:57] <muhammed> all*
[12:57] <cwillu> shp1, of course, if you can tell us what software that bin is...
[12:57] <shp1> well guys its PostgreSQl
[12:58] <muhammed> what is the path of programs in ubuntu ?
[12:58] <cwillu> ugh, postgre is definitely packaged up already :p
[12:58] <cwillu> !info postgresql
[12:58] <Myrtti> muhammed: why are you asking? want to uninstall something?
[12:58] <hbekel> muhammed: echo $PATH
[12:58] <cwillu> muhammed, binaries are in /usr/bin generally, libraries in /usr/lib, documentation in /usr/share/doc (and other stuff in /usr/share)
[12:59] <muhammed> no..just to knw
[12:59] <cwillu> runtime stuff is in /var
[12:59] <cwillu> and settings are in /etc
[12:59] <kholerabbi> hey, how can I find what model and brand is my wireless card?
[12:59] <cwillu> that's pretty much everything in a nutshell :)
[12:59] <Myrtti> games are in /usr/games
[12:59] <dutchbuntu> kholerabbi: iwconfig
[12:59] <sysadmin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256296/plain/
[12:59] <sysadmin> any idea
[12:59] <cwillu> Myrtti, which is rather odd
[13:00] <muhammed> thnx a lot guyz
[13:00] <kholerabbi> dutchbuntu: thanks, I'll check it out
[13:00] <hbekel> cwillu: that's traditional
[13:00] <cwillu> hbekel, it's also odd
[13:00] <digitalvaldosta> Good morning (or whatever). I was wondering if anyone knows of a program I can use to find out why an external hdd would have slow access time. I got this from a customer and they are only using 9% of 320gb.
[13:00] <sysadmin> any idea?
[13:01] <muhammed> guyz ... i put a password to the grub ...how could i remove it?
[13:01] <cwillu> sysadmin, a pastebin without any description of what it is isn't going to get many people looking at it :p
[13:01] <cwillu> sysadmin, everyone will just assume it was intended for someone in particular
[13:01] <sysadmin> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-recovering-grub-boot-loader-password.html
[13:01] <sysadmin> try this
[13:01] <kholerabbi> dutchbuntu: iwconfig doesn't show me the manufacturer or model, that I can see...
[13:02] <cwillu> kholerabbi, lspci|grep -i net should show you something
[13:02] <taavikko> kholerabbi: "lshw -C network"
[13:02] <cwillu> kholerabbi, it'll include the wired adapter too though
[13:02] <kholerabbi> thanks cwillu
[13:02] <muhammed> thnx sysadmin
[13:02] <digitalvaldosta> The external HDD is a SimpleTech SimpleDrive. Does anyone know what command I can run in the command Line to test it to see whats wrong? :D
[13:02] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, usb?
[13:03] <digitalvaldosta> cwillu, yes
[13:03] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, you're limited then in what sorts of diagnostics you can run.  Smart-disk checks (i.e., hardware checks) generally aren't supported over usb
[13:04] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, additionally, depending on the usb port you're plugged into, and other assorted factors, you may be running at old usb speeds, which would be quite slow
[13:04] <hbekel> sysadmin: have you run with --trace?
[13:05] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, use a port on the back of the computer (one with the port attached to the motherboard) if you can, they're more likely to be highspeed in some circumstances
[13:05] <sysadmin> yes
[13:05] <c4pt> hello i was wondering how i can slow down the boot process i am trying to capture the error from a kernel panic while using xen.
[13:05] <muhammed> could i use Knoppix CD in ubuntu?
[13:05] <hbekel> sysadmin: what is your question?
[13:05] <digitalvaldosta> well it is 2.0. every other hdd I run on that port run fine. this is a drive that I am testing for a customer. it was running slow on his computers (2). and I just plugged it in here and it is still attempting to open a folder. :(
[13:06] <ziroday> muhammed, to do what exactly?
[13:06] <sysadmin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256313/
[13:06] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, you could also use hdparm -t /dev/whatever-device-it-is
[13:06] <TRIBALERO> hi, where i can get free bnc ?
[13:06] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, which should show you some performance data
[13:06] <hbekel> sysadmin: well, you seem to miss openssl for ruby
[13:06] <digitalvaldosta> cwillu, ok I will try that.
[13:06] <sysadmin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256315/
[13:06] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, that sounds like a drive failure, re-reading sectors to overcome errors
[13:07] <sysadmin> so wat should i do now
[13:07] <NantoRokuseiken> hello to everyone.my problem is that i connected on my ubuntu 9.04 laptop a usb keyboard and after a while it was working fine. when though i unplugged the mouse my laptop keyboard is not functioning properly.how can i reconfigure it?
[13:07] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, which is why I started with the smart-disk check, which you probably can't do without taking the drive out of the enclosure and plugging it in directly
[13:07] <TRIBALERO> hi, where i can get free bnc ?
[13:07] <muhammed> recover my grub password
[13:07] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, if the enclosure has esata, that would also be suitable
[13:07] <Pici> TRIBALERO: Not here, this is a support channel.
[13:07] <cwillu> !smart-utils
[13:07] <cwillu> !info smart-utils
[13:07] <gartral> !smart
[13:07] <digitalvaldosta> cwillu, thats what I am thinking as well. I had done a google search and found that other people had problems with the same brand drive but that pcworld mag said it is a great buy. lol
[13:08] <hbekel> sysadmin: isn't it obvious?
[13:08] <cwillu> !info smartmontools | digitalvaldosta
[13:08] <sysadmin> yes
[13:08] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, that package has smartctl which has test modes which are useful.  Generally they don't work over usb devices though :(
[13:08] <hbekel> sysadmin: yes?
[13:08] <muhammed> guyz ...I know the password of my grub...but how could i remove it?!!
[13:08] <digitalvaldosta> ok, cwillu
[13:08] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, well, any drive will start doing that if you drop it from 3 feet onto a concrete floor :p
[13:09] <digitalvaldosta> lol, cwillu.
[13:09] <muhammed> lo cwillu
[13:09] <muhammed> lol
[13:09] <ziroday> c4pt, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelDebuggingTricks
[13:09] <zicho> i run a shellscript in my conky using rhythmbox-client, this forces rhythmbox to open whenever i run conky. can i disable this somehow?
[13:09] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, my boss currently doesn't believe that harddrives fail.  Ever.  His laptop still works fine after 3 years :p
[13:09] <digitalvaldosta> cwillu, maybe not SSDs but I have not tested that theory yet as i don't have one of those.
[13:09] <cwillu> so, selling him on the concept of backups is a bit tricky :p
[13:10] <muhammed> guyz ...I know the password of my grub...but how could i remove it?!!
[13:10] <ziroday> muhammed, edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:10] <digitalvaldosta> cwillu, tell him to prepare for the battery failure soon. lol.
[13:10] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, he only ever uses it plugged in.  I don't know that he has any battery life to speak of anyway :p
[13:11] <muhammed> thanx ziroday
[13:11] <digitalvaldosta> :-D
[13:11] <zicho> i run a shellscript in my conky using rhythmbox-client, this forces rhythmbox to open whenever i run conky. can i disable this somehow?
[13:11] <digital1> help
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> !help }| digital1
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> !ask | digital1
[13:12] <Slart> zicho: well.. if the shellscript has to run your script and your script forcecs rythmbox to open then.. no.. rythmbox will open
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> zicho:  make the script see if rythm-box is allready running... if so contiue. if not.. exit.. i guess
[13:12] <digital1> my ubuntu' display is black
[13:13] <muhammed> ziroday....then ?
[13:13] <Slart> zicho: you might want to consider if you really have to run the shellscript, if the shellscript has to call rythmbox or if the rythmbox command has to start rythmbox... but as you described it there's no way out of it
[13:13] <dutchbuntu> digital1: I prefer it that way too
[13:13] <ziroday> muhammed, remove the password line
[13:13] <digital1> i have install ubuntu 9.04 but display not able
[13:13] <zicho> Slart i think it has to
[13:13] <digital1> it's black
[13:14] <muhammed> ziroday...this" password --md5 $1$gLhU0/$aW78kHK1QfV3P2b2znUoe/"?
[13:14] <ziroday> muhammed, sure
[13:14] <muhammed> thnx alot
[13:15] <digital1> :'(
[13:17] <digitalvaldosta> cwillu, I tried it with -t and -T and they ran in 2-3 sec. I will now try the other package later.
[13:18] <cwillu> digitalvaldosta, but what was the transfer rate it reported?
[13:18] <cwillu> that's the interesting number, not how long the test took
[13:18] <digitalvaldosta> cwillu, Timing cached reads:   630 MB in  2.01 seconds = 314.20 MB/sec

[13:27] <nErVe> samitheberber: I use Firefox 3.0.13
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> nErVe: do you have multiple flash plugins installed?

[13:30] <B4ckBOne> I want to monitor my server using lm-sensors through a website .. is it possible?
[13:32] <Snake23> B4ckBOne:  you want a web based monitoring system?
[13:32] <B4ckBOne> Snake23,  exactly!
[13:32] <Snake23> what do you want to monitor?
[13:33] <B4ckBOne> Temperatures voltage diskspace uptime load ...
[13:33] <Snake23> maybe you should try webmin

[13:33] <Snake23> i don't know if you can monitor what you want to monitor but...
[13:33] <Myrtti> !webmin

[13:36] <sysadmin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256327/
[13:36] <sysadmin> any idea

[13:37] <sysadmin> how to install ruby sourcecode on ubntu

[13:38] <jetienne> q. when doing 'sudo apt-get upgrade', some packages are kept back, *but* when i do update with the 'update manager', those packages are updated without asking questions. why ?
[13:39] <dutchbuntu> jetienne: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:39] <Quick-Start> Hi! How do you create a live CD (or DVD) of Ubuntu?
[13:39] <hbekel> sysadmin: do yoz have the openssl dev package installed?
[13:39] <Pici> jetienne: Because using update-manager would be the equivalent of using apt-get dist-upgrade, you are missing out on packages by just doing upgrade
[13:39] <jetienne> Pici: ah ok. thanks
[13:39] <dutchbuntu> Quick-Start: download the ISO and burn it to CD
[13:39] <Quick-Start> thats it? No special steps?
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> Quick-Start: dont forget to md5 check it forst
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> Quick-Start: and burn slowly

[13:45] <ak5> hello, is there a package that *replaces* firefox3.0 with firefox 3.5 ??
[13:46] <bazhang> ak5, they co-exist
[13:46] <ak5> bazhang: yes, thank I know, I was wondering if there was a package that replaces 3.0 instead of me having to do it manually
[13:46] <DJones> !ff5 | ak5
[13:47] <DJones> !ff3.5 | ak5
[13:47] <bazhang> ak5, you need to keep 3 installed when installing 3.5
[13:47] <ak5> bazhang: why, exactly?
[13:47] <bazhang> ak5, see the link above?
[13:48] <B4ckBOne> phpsysinfo was what im looking for ....
[13:49] <kyja> I am being flooded by floodbot info
[13:49] <sysadmin> no use
[13:49] <sysadmin> i need very urgent help
[13:49] <ak5> bazhang: I stumbled across that, when I googled, I was just wondering why something like this can not be a end-user choice - upgrading 9.04 to karmic (isn't that unstable?) because I want to use a newer version of my browser seems kind of strange, for the lack of a better word
[13:49] <kyja> I understand
[13:49] <hbekel> sysadmin: you don't answer any questions, why should i help you?
[13:50] <Boohbah> ak5: firefox 3.5 is also unstable
[13:50] <sysadmin>  s/openssl.h/ssl.h/ sorry means ?
[13:50] <kyja> ?
[13:50] <Boohbah> sysadmin: substitute ssl.h for openssl.h
[13:50] <ak5> Boohbah: true, but it seems funny to want *everything* to be unstable if I want 1 unstable program
[13:50] <hbekel> sysadmin: oops, that means "i meant ssl.h, not openssl.h" (i typo'ed)
[13:51] <sysadmin> where is that
[13:51] <fatal1ty> hi guys
[13:52] <fatal1ty> im new here :D
[13:52] <thiebaude> !welcome
[13:52] <hbekel> sysadmin: have you installed libssl-dev?
[13:52] <ak5> so the answer is: "no there is no package that replaces firefox-3.0-* with firefox-3.5-*
[13:52] <ak5> ?
[13:52] <Boohbah> ak5: where does it say you need to upgrade to karmic to use firefox 3.5? http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/firefox-3.5
[13:52] <bazhang> ak5, from the repos? using the package manager? no.
[13:53] <SoulAssassin> Hi
[13:53] <IdleOne> bazhang, there is a firefox-3.5 in the repos
[13:53] <bazhang> ak5, 3.5 is in the repos for jaunty. and is final.
[13:53] <sysadmin> no , i am installing now
[13:53] <thiebaude> ak5, http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/firefox.html
[13:53] <bazhang> IdleOne, yep ak5 seems confused
[13:53] <hbekel> sysadmin: probably that's all you're missing
[13:53] <sysadmin> let me try that one
[13:53] <ak5> Yes I am really confused
[13:54] <ak5> if it is final, why keep firefox3.0 oO
[13:54] <SoulAssassin> Is there someone that can help me set up a root password for Ubuntu 9.04 on a PS3?
[13:55] <Slart> ak5: afaik it's a policy thing.. ubuntu does things a certain way.. ie keeping versions unless there is a security upgrade and so on
[13:55] <thiebaude> ak5, some people use firefox 3
[13:55] <Boohbah> bazhang: are you sure firefox-3.5 depends on firefox-3? I don't see it in the dep list at http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/firefox-3.5
[13:55] <Boohbah> s/3/3.0.x/
[13:55] <freko28> SoulAssassin i've you got probleme with wifi or other with ubuntu 9.04 on ps3?
[13:56] <Slart> ak5: if I understand things correctly it's for stability.. ubuntu 9.04 comes with firefox 3.0 and that's something developers and users should be able to count on .. I'm not sure if 3.5 is totally backwards compatible with 3.0
[13:56] <IdleOne> what is the difference why 3.0 is still there, if you want to use 3.5 go ahead
[13:56] <bazhang> Boohbah, if you try to remove it will be reinstalled with addition of 3.5
[13:56] <ak5> Slart: yes, I understand, I just don't understand why there is no choice to replace firefox-3, I have to manually get rid of it. That firefox3.5 is not a forced update makes a ton of sense to me
[13:56] <orochi> ak5: Well for one thing there's a bug in firefox 3.5 that causes it to crash when full screening flash videos, the fix is being pushed for 3.5.3...so it's not as stable as people would like to think, yet
[13:56] <thiebaude> IdleOne, exactly
[13:56] <ak5> well, ok
[13:57] <ak5> thanks for helping me guys :)
[13:57] <kannan02> i cant find alloc.h in gcc .. can any one help me..
[13:57] <SoulAssassin> What is the problem?
[13:57] <Boohbah> kannan02: is libc6-dev installed?
[13:58] <Slart> ak5: well.. you can of course replace firefox 3.0 with 3.5.. but it's not supported by the repos (nor this channel) .. that I guess is because the developers only have so much time and checkings things, creating packages the replace 3.0 with 3.5 and so on takes time
[13:58] <kannan02> boohbah:ya installed
[13:58] <hbekel> kannan02: define "can't find in gcc"

[14:00] <hbekel> kannan02: your own program or are you trying to build sth from source?
[14:00] <KB1PKL> Does Steam work with Ubuntu?
[14:00] <Guest57489> hello - could someone give me a briefly summary about the experience TASCAM US 144 + ubuntu? tnx
[14:00] <infrid> only kidding - I was just reading the irc faq ;)
[14:00] <kannan02> ubuntu_:will it give all alloc.h functions
[14:00] <xor> kvm breaks VBox
[14:00] <IdleOne> infrid, #ubuntu-ops
[14:00] <Boohbah> kannan02: how bout libstdc++6-4.2-dev ?
[14:01] <Slart> infrid: usually asking for it automatically disqualifies you.. but ask in #ubuntu-ops if you really really want to
[14:01] <kiran_> hello ububntu
[14:01] <ubuntu_> slart: my system is still freezed
[14:01] <kannan02> hbekel:own program
[14:01] <ubuntu_> kannan02: yes
[14:01] <SoulAssassin> Is there a way to activate the root user account?
[14:01] <infrid> I actually have  a question about ssl certificates, and where they are stored
[14:01] <IdleOne> !root > SoulAssassin
[14:01] <Slart> SoulAssassin: it's there and active.. you just don't have a password for it.. sudo will let you run things as root
[14:02] <infrid> I'd be very grateful for help. I need to know where wget, or lynx stores the ssl certificates it uses, as I want to delete them
[14:02] <Slart> !sudo |  SoulAssassin
[14:02] <infrid> does anyone know where I can find out how to find them, please?
[14:02] <ubuntu_> kiran: try synaptic package manager
[14:02] <wookieeassassin> I am having trouble registering my nick. It says my email isn't valid. Is a live  email or gmail  not valid
[14:02] <Boohbah> infrid: they are stored wherever you choose to put them as you can specify the location in every app's configuration that uses them. but /etc/ssl is a good place
[14:02] <kannan02> boohbah:but 6-4.3-dev i think i got the solution from ubuntu_ thank u...
[14:02] <Slart> !register | wookieeassassin
[14:02] <infrid> Boohbah, thanks
[14:02] <Pici> wookieeassassin: #freenode for registration help please
[14:03] <gregd> hi guys, I am on Jaunty, and would need a few packages from Karmic... is there a simple way to install the required package with all the dependencies taken from Karmic rep? (I dont want to update all packages, just the one and the requirements)?
[14:03] <tim_> good day
[14:04] <bazhang> gregd, mixing version packages and such is not supported and will break things.
[14:04] <IdleOne> gregd, no there isnt. karmic packages will probably break jaunty
[14:04] <wookieeassassin> I am getting grub error 5 when trying to boot ubuntu from a logical partion /dev/sdb6
[14:04] <Slart> gregd: you'll probably end up updating all the packages anyway.. mixing repos/version is a bad idea
[14:04] <gregd> fair enough
[14:04] <wookieeassassin> When I try to use super grub disk it won't even detect an extended partition]
[14:04] <Boohbah> infrid: sorry i missed the last part of your question. not sure, but i'd guess wget and lynx store downloaded certs somewhere in /tmp. you can find out for sure by running lsof on one of them while you download a cert
[14:05] <infrid> Boohbah, thanks :)
[14:05] <tim_> is anyone using the zotac 9300 itx mainboard with ubuntu 9.04? it contains a usb wifi card that i would like to use.
[14:05] <ubuntu_> slart : the program uses pow() function and structure pointers other than that i donot think there is anything that can cause the problem also i am not making any system call
[14:06] <Kapli> Hi, sometimes when I start my computer there's noise on the left side on my audio, I have to reboot to fix it, how can I fix this permanently?
[14:06] <Slart> ubuntu_: try running the c program with "nice" or "ionice" and see if that makes any difference.. it might not be about the c program at all but it's worth a try
[14:07] <wookieeassassin>  /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER wookieeassassin dmtibwycmpxe
[14:07] <Slart> wookieeassassin: oops.. better find a new password
[14:07] <Pici> Slart: thats a verify, its not the real password.
[14:07] <wookieeassassin> why is it saying that is an invalid command?!
[14:07] <wookieeassassin> it won't work in NickServ
[14:07] <Pici> wookieeassassin: #freenode...
[14:07] <Slart> Pici: oh.. it's been to long since I registered
[14:08] <IdleOne> wookieeassassin, because that is an invalid command
[14:08] <IdleOne> wookieeassassin, before verifying you need to register
[14:08] <pianistbaby> without opening up my Computer case, is there a quick way to tell whether it will accept a Serial ATA hard drive?
[14:08] <duriantang> Can i install 64bit ubuntu into 32bit windows xp via wubi? filesystem is ntfs.
[14:08] <thiebaude> !wubi
[14:09] <thiebaude> duriantang, im not sure if that will help
[14:09] <ubuntu_> slart: after using nice i am not getting any error
[14:09] <wookieeassassin> IdleOne: I did
[14:10] <Slart> ubuntu_: ah.. good..
[14:10] <IdleOne> wookieeassassin, and you got the message from Nickserv that your nick was registered?
[14:10] <wookieeassassin> Anyway, why am I getting GRUB error 5? I thought GRUB could boot Linux from logical partitions
[14:10] <[eXception]> hi
[14:10] <[eXception]> why I'm getting this: when I do apt-get: Failed to fetch ...Size mismatch
[14:10] <ubuntu_> slart: does it mean that the problem is due to scheduling issues
[14:11] <Slart> ubuntu_: I would look into your program.. if you've got the source code.. perhaps it can be modified to be more friendly to the rest of the system
[14:11] <Slart> ubuntu_: or just remember to run it with "nice"
[14:12] <ubuntu_> slart : yeah can i send u the source code
 Is there a way to activate the root user account? no root acount on ubuntu
[14:12] <Slart> ubuntu_: oh.. I'm not very good with c.. you could ask in ##c or perhaps in ##programming
[14:12] <ubuntu_> slart : ok thanks
[14:13] <PDani> hi
[14:13] <PDani> how can i install an linux-image deb package without generating initrd?
[14:14] <heo> How can I put a process to background like ^Z, but without stopping  it?
[14:14] <Guest57489> has anyone experience with the TASCAM US-144 audio/midi interface? will it work?
[14:14] <Slart> heo: ctrl+z, %1&
[14:14] <ubuntu_> heo : just use & after the program
[14:14] <Slart> heo: or just start with <yourcommand> &    in the first place
[14:15] <heo> Slart: Example. This irssi. How can I put it to background so that I won't disconnect
[14:15] <darkest_night> hi @ all, i have a problem: i detect with lsusb more usb-devices than i have installed,
[14:15] <darkest_night> but, i want to disconnect one of them.... can some1 say me how this works? e.g. with the
[14:15] <samadhi> hello
[14:15] <darkest_night> devicenumber 002
[14:15] <hbekel> heo: run it in screen
[14:15] <Slart> heo: hmm.. you could use screen.. that's popular from what i've heard
[14:15] <heo> hbekel: I am in screen :)
[14:15] <Pici> heo: ooh, you really should run irssi inside of screen instead of putting it into the background like that.
[14:16] <duriantang> thiebaude: thx, i'm downloading 64bit ubuntu.
[14:16] <hbekel> heo: then just detach the session
[14:16] <thiebaude> duriantang, great
[14:16] <Pici> heo: If you don't want to do that, you could use ^z and then use fg and bg to control whether you can interact with the program or not
[14:16] <Pici> I'm not sure if that dies when the parent process is closed though
[14:16] <darkest_night> i want to disconnect an usb-device in the terminal, can some1 say me how this works?
[14:16] <indus> darkest_night: wich devices do u have connected
[14:17] <samadhi> I'll state my problems and maybe someone can help
[14:17] <xor> is there a channel for xchat-gnome?  I'm new, <i think it sucks, can't use alternate ports?
[14:17] <darkest_night> indus: physically 3, but lsusb says 4
[14:17] <heo> hbekel: does deattaching disconnect?
[14:17] <indus> darkest_night: ya must be some usb hub probably
[14:17] <hbekel> heo: no, that's the whole point of screen
[14:17] <indus> darkest_night: do u know which one u want to disconect?
[14:17] <samadhi> some time ago I installed Ubuntu 9.04
[14:17] <darkest_night> indus: yes
[14:17] <hbekel> heo: press C-a d to detach, then open a terminal and runn screen -r to reattach
[14:18] <indus> darkest_night: do a mount in terminal
[14:18] <Pici> heo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen might be helpful too
[14:18] <Pici> !enter | samadhi
[14:18] <indus> darkest_night: i mean type mount in terminal and see where its mounted
[14:18] <heo> hbekel: You are right.  Thank you.
[14:18] <thiebaude> samadhi, what problem do you have?
[14:18] <darkest_night> indus: do u mean mount <devicenumber> or just mount?
[14:18] <Guest57489> has anyone experience with the TASCAM US-144 audio/midi interface? will it work?
[14:18] <samadhi> hi thiebaude
[14:18] <indus> darkest_night: then do a sudo umount <dev location> or <dev name>
[14:18] <thiebaude> samadhi, hi
[14:18] <indus> darkest_night: just mount
[14:18] <darkest_night> indus k
[14:19] <samadhi> i can't get my windows to boot after i have installed GRUB
[14:19] <thiebaude> !grub
[14:19] <indus> darkest_night:sorry my mistake, it wont show usb drives other than hard disks
[14:19] <thiebaude> samadhi, try that
[14:19] <indus> darkest_night: but anyways try it
[14:19] <indus> darkest_night: which is the device name
[14:19] <xor> what client is the best for Gnome desktop?  does xchat blow, or am i dumb? cant specify alt port?
[14:20] <darkest_night> indus: thats the problem... its not an usb-drive, its an usb-device.....
[14:20] <samadhi> ok thiebaude, I'll have a look
[14:20] <Pici> xor: Use xchat, not xchat-gnome, they are different packages.
[14:20] <thiebaude> xor, im using xchat now
[14:20] <xor> thans
[14:20] <xor> thanx
[14:20] <indus> darkest_night: can i see paste of ls-usb
[14:20] <thiebaude> xor, sudo apt-get install xchat
[14:20] <indus> darkest_night: also,what is it u trying to unmount
[14:20] <darkest_night> indus: y, w8 a sec
[14:20] <xor> copy
[14:21] <darkest_night> indus: Bus 008 Device 002: ID 044e:3017 Alps Electric Co., Ltd
[14:21] <indus> darkest_night: what device is this
[14:21] <DaDa|Urka> why am i getting 405 from my apache when using the PUT Method?
[14:21] <darkest_night> indus: i dont know, i disconnected everything i have connected via usb, but it still is there....
[14:21] <Pici> DaDa|Urka: Thats probably a more on-topic question for #httpd (the apache channel) than for here.
[14:22] <indus> darkest_night: then why bother
[14:22] <DaDa|Urka> Pici: thx
[14:22] <darkest_night> indus: and i want to disconnect it for now, because i cant update my openmoko :(
[14:22] <indus> darkest_night: let it be there :)
[14:22] <indus> darkest_night: ok do  a sudo fdisk -l
[14:22] <indus> darkest_night:if nothing is plugged , i suggest just restart pc
[14:22] <darkest_night> indus: ok, then?
[14:22] <darkest_night> indus: i tried, but it is there....
[14:23] <indus> darkest_night:can i see the paste
[14:23] <indus> !paste | darkest_night
[14:24] <smxsy> i broke my GRUB :(
[14:24] <smxsy> im booting from super grub dics now
[14:24] <indus> smxsy: ill help u fix it
[14:24] <darkest_night> indus: http://paste.ubuntu.com/256345/
[14:25] <smxsy> really indus? thanks :)
[14:25] <darkest_night> indus: but it is in german^^
[14:25] <sp_> Hi, I stored a link in /usr/bin/ but I need it to start a different directory so paths don't break
[14:25] <sp_> any tips?
[14:25] <indus> darkest_night: is it /dev/sdb?
[14:25] <smxsy> it was my own stupid fault
[14:25] <indus> darkest_night: do  a sudo umount /dev/sdb
[14:25] <indus> darkest_night: do  a sudo umount /dev/sdb1
[14:25] <indus> darkest_night: guten :)
[14:25] <darkest_night> indus: nope, thats not the alps-device.... this device is an maxtor-device^^
[14:25] <smxsy> i was installing mythbuntu to an external ide hdd plugged into usb through a converter
[14:26] <smxsy> but i forgot that by doing that the installer would still update GRUB on my primary hdd
[14:26] <indus> darkest_night: then hmm i have no idea, what is an alps device
[14:26] <smxsy> so im sure it's a simple config thing
[14:26] <__theIdiotBox> hello everyone
[14:26] <indus> smxsy: that can be changed
[14:26] <darkest_night> indus: i dont know, but is there no command to simply disconnect an usb-device?
[14:27] <indus> darkest_night: umount -a
[14:27] <indus> darkest_night: try it
[14:27] <darkest_night> indus: =
[14:27] <indus> darkest_night: will unmount all damn things
[14:27] <sp_> Hi, I stored a link in /usr/bin/ but I need it to start a different directory so paths don't break
[14:27] <sp_> anyone read that?
[14:27] <sp_> any tips you can give me?
[14:27] <__theIdiotBox> darkest_night, sudo umount /dev/sdx replace x for your usb
[14:28] <indus> darkest_night: so did it work? did u do a lsusb
[14:28] <darkest_night> __theidiotbox: i try
[14:28] <hbekel> sp_: you mean start in a certain directory?
[14:28] <sp_> hbekel, exactly
[14:28] <indus> darkest_night: how can u do a /dev/sdx when u dont know what device it is
[14:29] <hbekel> sp_: don't use a symlink, use a frontend script, ie "cd somedir; run command"
[14:29] <darkest_night> indus: well.. i just try to disconnect it, without knowing what it is, it is no harddisk, for sure....
[14:29] <indus> darkest_night: i think ignore it, some internal usb bus address it is
[14:29] <sp_> hbekel, okay, where do I store that script so it works from everywhere? /usr/bin/ ?
[14:29] <samadhi> thiebaude: it's still not clear to me about what i should do
[14:30] <smxsy> indus i did some googling and found how to reconfigure my menu.lst, I'll try a few more things before i bother you
[14:30] <indus> darkest_night:i dont know iam stumped
[14:30] <smxsy> but thanks for your kind offer of help
[14:30] <indus> smxsy: i can solve ur problem in 3 easy steps
[14:30] <hbekel> sp_: you can use any dir in $PATH
[14:30] <smxsy> if you do i will worship you as a genius forever
[14:30] <darkest_night> indus: but i cant do anything with my openmoko caused by this device, the openmoko-program
[14:30] <darkest_night> says, that i have to disconnect this device first....
[14:30] <indus> darkest_night: hmm cool
[14:31] <indus> darkest_night: so u have no idea what device this is?
[14:31] <darkest_night> indus: nope
[14:31] <indus> darkest_night: tell me that lsusb again
[14:32] <infrid> ok, no joy, if wget, or lynx negotiate an ssl handshake for me (e.g. https request), then what type of file will it store (e.g. what will it look like, name/extension).
[14:32] <darkest_night> indus: Bus 008 Device 002: ID 044e:3017 Alps Electric Co., Ltd
[14:32] <darkest_night> Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
[14:32] <sp_> hbekel, worked like a charm, thanks!
[14:32] <infrid> I had a suggestion earlier, but it's difficult for me to solve it, and googling ssl basically takes me to apache/tomcat land :/
[14:32] <indus> darkest_night: this is some internal thing on the motherboard i think
[14:32] <indus> darkest_night: or a short of usb ports
[14:32] <darkest_night> indus: hm... shit.... but thx for trying to help :)
[14:33] <indus> darkest_night: have u ever seen this device name before
[14:33] <indus> darkest_night: can u configure open moko to ignore this usb device
[14:33] <samadhi> i'll restate my problem: i had ubuntu; i installed windows on a different partition and i couldn't boot ubuntu after that; i installed GRUB and now i can't boot windows
[14:33] <LordSnake> hi, I am trying to install ubuntu on an old pc, I haver never used linux b4 ever. I got linspire working installed but the CNR doesn't work since linspire no longer exists, so wanted to try ubuntu, however it will not install, it just freezes during the install and nothing happens
[14:33] <indus> samadhi: hi
[14:33] <indus> samadhi: what do u mean u cant boot windows?
[14:34] <samadhi> hi indus
[14:34] <smxsy> lordsnake boot with cheat code 'splash' removed

[14:34] <darkest_night> indus: i dont know, i got the openmoko today and the computer says that i have to disconnect this
[14:34] <darkest_night> device first.... nope, i cant configure openmoko to ignore this device (www.openmoko.com)

[14:34] <darkest_night> !openmoko
[14:34] <darkest_night> !usb
[14:34] <smxsy> then when it boots again you will see the error it stops on
[14:34] <indus> darkest_night: ok i suggest open the case and have ea look inside :)
[14:34] <smxsy> that will help us find what is wrong

[14:37] <indus> darkest_night: also whats sdb1, u boot from it?
[14:37] <samadhi> indus nope, just linux kernel normal + recovery mode and memtest
[14:37] <LordSnake> how do I  boot with cheat code 'splash' removed?
[14:37] <Guest90813> trying to settup X-Fi driver on my ubuntu jaunty system can anybody help me?
[14:37] <indus> samadhi: ok use live cd and repair grub

[14:38] <darkest_night> indus: the first partition on my external drive sdb :)
[14:38] <Xerran> Guest90813: I can help you because I have that card :)
[14:38] <Guest90813> awsome
[14:38] <indus> darkest_night: lool ok
[14:38] <Xerran> Guest90813: one sec
[14:38] <Guest90813> is there anyway we can grab a personal chat for a couple minutes
[14:38] <indus> samadhi: u installed windows over linux right?
[14:39] <indus> samadhi: can i see output of caommand sudo fdisk -l
[14:39] <indus> !paste | samadhi
[14:39] <samadhi> indus yes, and then I installed grub
[14:39] <indus> samadhi: how did u install grub
[14:39] <Xerran> Guest90813: what x-fi card do you have?
[14:39] <Guest90813> i think its x-fi titanium
[14:39] <indus> samadhi: so u installed grub but dont see the windows entry in menu? correct?
[14:39] <Xerran> k
[14:40] <Guest90813> i installed the driver off creative's site, and enabled it on my hardware drivers
[14:40] <GuidMorrow> hey, what's with the update manager going off this morning?
[14:40] <samadhi> indus correct
[14:40] <Guest90813> but it doesn't show in my sound
[14:40] <indus> samadhi: so now,take a live cd and boot from it
[14:40] <indus> samadhi: but first let me see fdisk -l
[14:40] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: what do you mean?
[14:41] <GuidMorrow> glowing button on the task bar, and then when I opened it, it said it had security updates
[14:41] <Xerran> Go here http://tinyurl.com/5auo8w
[14:41] <indus> ill cu in some time
[14:41] <indus> gtg now
[14:41] <LordSnake> i presume the GRUB screen is the install menu. pressing e doesn't do anything here, I have f1-f6 as options, and none say anything about removing splash
[14:41] <Xerran> Download the linux driver
[14:41] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: Jaunty?
[14:41] <samadhi> indus i guess ill talk to someone else
[14:42] <Xerran> Guest90813: did you reboot after u installed the driver?
[14:42] <ubuntu_> samadhi: it is not wise to install windows after linux because it deletes the existing boot information just what happened in ur case
[14:42] <Guest90813> yea
[14:42] <unperson> Hi.  I want to rsync a users home directory between two machines running ubuntu.  I have sudo ability on both machines.  Is it possible to rsync the two directory perserving the file ownership without enabling root login on the machines?  If so, how?  If you use rsync to connect to a remote machine as a normal user, it seems to chown everything to that user.
[14:42] <geirha> !grub | samadhi
[14:43] <Guest90813> yea thats the driver i have
[14:43] <Xerran> Guest90813: did you cd into the extracted folder?
[14:43] <Guest90813> yea
[14:43] <GuidMorrow> !imagebin
[14:43] <samadhi> geirha:  i have already look on those pages
[14:43] <Xerran> Guest90813: you made all the install commands form there right?
[14:43] <Guest90813> yep
[14:43] <Xerran> from
[14:43] <ramiro> how do I edit a .deb to say "no, you do not depend on this library"
[14:43] <Boohbah> infrid: so after playing with lsof and reading the wget source, i've determined that the certificate is not written to disk
[14:44] <samadhi> ubuntu_ i didn't know that, otherwise i wouldn't have installed it
[14:44] <Boohbah> infrid: what is it you're trying to accomplish?
[14:44] <geirha> samadhi: Oh, sorry, haven't followed your case :/
[14:44] <Xerran> Guest90813: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[14:44] <Guest90813> 9.04 jaunty
[14:44] <Guest90813> 64 bit
[14:44] <ramiro> it probably involves unpacking the deb, editing some file, and packing it again, but I suppose there must be an easier way around
[14:44] <Xerran> Guest90813: same here
[14:44] <samadhi> geirha: do you want me to repeat?
[14:44] <hbekel> infrid: tried to locate .pem files? looked at man -P 'less +/ca-directory' wget ?
[14:44] <ubuntu_> samadhi: i would suggest you to install windows first
[14:44] <GuidMorrow> dutchbuntu: http://imagebin.org/60361
[14:44] <Xerran> Guest90813: you get no sound at all?
[14:44] <Guest90813> been trying to fix this for a long time hah.. no luck :(
[14:44] <Guest90813> nope none
[14:45] <infrid> Boohbah, I'm glad you worked that out , I just thought I was using it wrong
[14:45] <infrid> Boohbah, thanks for looking I'm trying to remove a certificate. I'm connecting an ssl uri, but it say's the certificate authority is wrong
[14:45] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: glad to see you are up-to-date
[14:45] <samadhi> ubuntu_ i hope there is an easier way
[14:45] <infrid> the provider of the uri has asked me to remove any cached certs as they think they somehow distributed an incorrect one previously
[14:45] <maco> ramiro: what are you trying to do to a deb?
[14:45] <Xerran> Guest90813: you know the latest kernel update killed the drivers, that may be why...to fix it you have to install the drivers again
[14:45] <GuidMorrow> false alarm?
[14:46] <Guest90813> i just installed 5 minutes ago
[14:46] <dutchbuntu> samadhi: has the following been suggested? Boot from Ubuntu Live CD and repair GRUB
[14:46] <Boohbah> infrid: yes, that means it's not signed by a recognized CA that you have a certificate for. you have installed ca-certificates yes?
[14:46] <Guest90813> but i never did update
[14:46] <Guest90813> think thats the problem?
[14:46] <Xerran> Guest90813: Sorry, beyond that I'm of no use to you.
[14:46] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorriw: your screenshot says you're uptodate
[14:46] <Guest90813> do you think it might not work because inever updated?
[14:46] <samadhi> dutchbuntu: by that you meant reinstalling GRUB?
[14:47] <infrid> Boohbah, it's selfsigned - that is true. Probably I need to get the cert off them - doh!
[14:47] <Xerran> Guest90813: possibly, get eall your updates
[14:47] <Xerran> all
[14:47] <ramiro> maco: I get a .deb from a powerpc, pass it through dpkg-cross, but it says it depends on findutils-powerpc-cross, which is wrong, plain native findutils is what's needed.
[14:47] <infrid> Boohbah, but what's strange is that it says that the cert has the wrong hostname, which made me think it had already downloaded the cert
[14:47] <geirha> samadhi: No need, I greped through the logs. Pastebin of the output of «sudo fdisk -l» and the content of /boot/grub/menu.lst would be helpful
[14:47] <Guest90813> right on thanks 4 the help
[14:47] <maco> ramiro: if you just want to force the installation without the dependency, you can use one of dpkg's --force commands
[14:47] <Xerran> Guest90813: did you get the ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[14:47] <Boohbah> infrid: yup, if you save the self-signed cert in the right place in /etc/ssl it should work
[14:47] <Guest90813> yea
[14:48] <dutchbuntu> samadhi: yes
[14:48] <ubuntu_> samadhi: this link will do it for you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub
[14:48] <ramiro> maco: but then it will always warn me whenever I want to install something else. and if I run apt-get install -f it gets uninstalled
[14:48] <Boohbah> infrid: nope, it checks the hostname on the cert against the hostname reported by the web server
[14:48] <maco> ramiro: if you want to fix it, you need the source package, and then modify it in debian/control and rebuild the binary package with dpkg-buildpackage
[14:48] <samadhi> geirha: i'll get to it in a minute, this is not the computer with the problem
[14:48] <GuidMorrow> dutchbuntu: when I booted into ubuntu, the update manager had said something about the Linux kernel needing a security update
[14:48] <infrid> Boohbah, it lists both the hostname it expected, and the hostname in the cert.. it's not garbage, so that made me think I had it.. weird, but I'll give it a shot thanks!
[14:48] <Boohbah> infrid: welcome :)
[14:48] <ramiro> maco: rebuilding the binary package -> does that imply recompiling or just repacking the .deb?
[14:48] <Xerran> Guest90813: Sorry, maybe someone else can help you farther..I'm still a linux n00b myself
[14:48] <maco> ramiro: recompiling
[14:48] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: and did you install those updates?
[14:49] <GuidMorrow> it's installed, though I can't tell WHAT package was installed
[14:49] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: please post output of "uname -a"
[14:49] <ramiro> maco: hmm, no good =( is there no way to just repackage?
[14:49] <ahmed> I'm trying to startx on ubuntu xen domU it's give me exec: 5: /usr/bin/X11/X: not found xinit:  Server error.
[14:49] <g3orges> Hello , im runnig an apllication, on port 81 ... how can i see if its really connected ? like reachable ? (ports are correctly forwarded)
[14:49] <GuidMorrow> dutchbuntu: "Linux hc-sapphire 2.6.28-15-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 18 19:25:34 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux"
[14:49] <ahmed> g3orges, try nmap
[14:50] <joaopinto> g3orges, netstat -lp
[14:50] <g3orges> ahmed can you developp plz .. im not very good at this ..
[14:50] <maco> ramiro: ive heard that debs are just tars like how rpms are just cpios, but i dont know if its true
[14:50] <joaopinto> g3orges, netstat -lp which show listenning ports and processes
[14:50] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: a new version of the kernel was released a few days ago. That's what Update Manager was showing. You installed it, that's why you are up-to-date.
[14:50] <joaopinto> maco, that is not correct, .deb are ar archives
[14:51] <Boohbah> g3orges: sudo apt-get install netcat; nc server 81
[14:51] <ahmed> nmap will show you only open ports
[14:51] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: do you have any problems in Ubuntu?
[14:51] <Xerran> What is the command to save after running this?# http://pastebin.com/d199d142e
[14:51] <maco> joaopinto: ah ok thanks.
[14:51] <maco> ramiro: see what joaopinto said
[14:51] <raubvogel> How do I get the kernel page size?
[14:51] <joaopinto> using nmap to check a single port is overkilling
[14:51] <ahmed> any one help in my Xserver problem
[14:51] <Boohbah> ahmed: is X installed?
[14:51] <GuidMorrow> I wasn't aware of any problems...?
[14:52] <ahmed> Boohbah, how could I know
[14:52] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: excellent. ;)
[14:53] <g3orges> Boohbah it says connection timed out .. so its not running then ?
[14:53] <g3orges> Boohbah or maybe not accepting connection ?
[14:53] <Boohbah> ahmed: sudo dpkg -l |grep xserver-xorg
[14:53] <hbekel> g3orges: use nc -vv for more info
[14:53] <samadhi> geirha:  could you tell me what exactly interests you from the output of sudo fdisk -l so I wouldn't have to type everything? As i told you this is not the computer with the problem. On the one with the problem I can't make the Internet work (this is my second problem)
[14:54] <g3orges> hbekel it says no info :/
[14:54] <ahmed> Boohbah, nothing return
[14:54] <joaopinto> g3orges, please use netstat there is no poing in doing a client side check if you can do a server side, which is more reliable
[14:54] <Boohbah> g3orges: could be, use netstat on the server to see if it is actually listening on port 81, 'sudo netstat -anp'
[14:54] <joaopinto> g3orges, for a cliente side check you just need telnet
[14:54] <majnoon> !ot
[14:54] <Boohbah> ahmed: which desktop environment do you want to use, gnome, kde, xfce?
[14:54] <geirha> samadhi: Which device node the NTFS "C:" is on, and to compare that with the windows entry in menu.lst
[14:54] <ahmed> Boohbah, I install fluxbox and I want to run it on xserver
[14:55] <Boohbah> ahmed: have you installed fluxbox? it should install xserver deps automatically
[14:55] <blizzkid> lo all, How comes the Atom 280 shows up as 2 cpu's in /proc/cpuinfo? I thought it was a single core?
[14:55] <ahmed> Boohbah, I install it
[14:55] <RoRza> what's the opposit of:     sudo adduser git
[14:55] <Boohbah> ahmed: what version of ubuntu?
[14:56] <RoRza> if I want to delete it
[14:56] <komp62> 9.04
[14:56] <ahmed> Boohbah, jaunty on xen
[14:56] <xray7224> how do i add stuff to the default run level
[14:56] <grawity> RoRza: sudo userdel git; and then remove the home directory using usual methods
[14:56] <xray7224> the ubuntu way of rc-update add <thing> default <<< from gentoo
[14:56] <Boohbah> xray7224: update-rc.d
[14:56] <xray7224> thanks
[14:56] <RoRza> grawity: what's usual method ?
[14:57] <joaopinto> xray7224, man update-rc.d
[14:57] <xray7224> i know im looking
[14:57]  * xray7224 is aware of the man command
[14:57] <g3orges> Boohbah joaopinto its a software under wine .. a winamp plugin .. shoutcast is connected correctly under winamp , but not the other one .. does wine support multiple internet connections ?
[14:57] <raubvogel> Easy question of the day: How do I get the kernel page size?
[14:57] <infrid> Boohbah, plot thickens... the problem is, there cert WAS self certified (which must've been stored somewhere), but now they use verisign... which is why I don't get garbage, but get legitimate (albeit mismatched) names
[14:57] <smxsy> w00t i fixed my GRUB
[14:57] <joaopinto> RoRza, man adduser, read the "SEE ALSO" section
[14:57] <LordSnake> according to that URL the grub menu is on the MBR, how would I have this if ubuntu is not installed menu as there is nothing to boot?
[14:57] <ahmed> Boohbah, when I try to start fluxbox it's give me Error: Couldn't connect to XServer
[14:58] <infrid> Boohbah, so I'm back to square one, I have to find a cert file, called - god knows what, stored, who knows where, and encrypted...
[14:58] <LordSnake> i have tried hititng esc as the cd boots but nothing
[14:58] <joaopinto> g3orges, this is not the best channel for wine support, try #winehq
[14:58] <samadhi> geirha    /dev/sda2 and the part in menu.lst is root (hd0,0)  makeactive  chainloader +1
[14:58] <LordSnake> still gets to the installer menu
[14:58] <infrid> Boohbah, so I'm opting to search for all files modified in last X days.. fingers crossed :)
[14:58] <samadhi> geirha: i hope that's it
[14:58] <__theIdiotBox> !adduser | RoRza
[14:58] <Boohbah> infrid: i tried that, it didn't work :)
[14:58] <Boohbah> infrid: do you have root access to the server?
[14:58] <infrid> oh yes :)
[14:59] <ahmed> Boohbah, and when I try to startX it's return no screens found
[14:59] <samadhi> geirha: i haven't found any other mention about windows in the menu.lst
[14:59] <Boohbah> infrid: http://lynx.isc.org/current/README.sslcerts
[14:59] <Boohbah> infrid: look for a .crt file on the server
[15:00] <joaopinto> infrid, you just need to check the configuration for the application that uses those certificates, it's location is usually defined on the config
[15:00] <geirha> samadhi: sda2 typically corresponds to (hd0,1) in grub, so try changing that in grub
[15:00] <infrid> thank jaopinto, I'll see
[15:00] <infrid> Boohbah, thanks
[15:00] <LordSnake> how do i access the grub menu during installation?
[15:01] <mstevens> this may sound mad but has anyone seen problems with a recent ubuntu update breaking the network?
[15:01] <dutchbuntu> LordSnake: what do you mean with 'during installation'?
[15:01] <__theIdiotBox> LordSnake, why do you want to that during installation?
[15:01] <LordSnake> because i was told to above
[15:02] <__theIdiotBox> LordSnake, does not make sense...what exactly is the problem ?
[15:02] <LordSnake> ubuntu will not install, it freezes, I was told I need to disable splash in the grub menu
[15:02] <recon69_lap> hi all, I'm trying to add a guest user account and it wont accept any password i set?? keeps saying there are invalid characters ? anyideas?
[15:02] <infrid> Boohbah, I'm beat - I've found every *.crt on the box - none of them have the correct date..
[15:03] <__theIdiotBox> recon69_lap, have u tried setting some simple chars?
[15:03] <joshiggins> recond69_lap: are you using symbols? fn key stuck?
[15:03] <samadhi> geirha: so you mean i should switch and have something like: Linux root (hd0,0)  Windows root (hd0,1)? On my computer, Linux is on the first partition and Windows on the second
[15:03] <Pirate_Hunter> is there an application that helps a person work on a project i.e. I want to be able to write about the project, see its progress, finished tasks etc?
[15:03] <__theIdiotBox> joshiggins, i think that must be the case
[15:04] <__theIdiotBox> Pirate_Hunter, version control sys in general
[15:04] <ab2qik> Hi. About to install ubuntu desktop on a fujitsu siemens laptop. Any known issues with this laptop. Its Esprimo mobile v5505
[15:04] <geirha> samadhi: Yes. isn't the linux entries already (hd0,0)?
[15:04] <joshiggins> ab2qik: google is your friend :)
[15:04] <recon69_lap> joshiggins, theIdiotBox, not as far as i can tell, just letters and numbers
[15:04] <joaopinto> ab2qik, test drive it with the livecd before processing with a real install
[15:05] <ahmed> Boohbah, could you help please
[15:05] <__theIdiotBox> Pirate_Hunter, that was to get involved in any open source project..but i dont know the exact ans
[15:05] <joshiggins> recon69_lap: try using the passwd util in the terminal, see if that accespts your password
[15:05] <joaopinto> joshiggins, that is not an helpful answer
[15:05] <x404x> i get "no such file or dir" for root/dev /sys /proc during mount and ubuntu 9.04 fails to boot, it does find the drive and grub/loader. any ideas to fix this ? i have 2 other pcs running that did not crash so i vonder what happened to it. seems to have suddenly nuked some dirs ? I also get initramfs at the bottom of the screen
[15:05] <hbekel> joaopinto: yes it is
[15:06] <__theIdiotBox> recon69_lap, r u trying from gui?
[15:06] <Pirate_Hunter> __theIdiotBox:  yeah was going to say something similar i wish to start some web delepment projects I just finding it hard, other than basket I was wondering if there were any other types of applications
[15:06] <joshiggins> recon69_lap: e.g. # adduser guestaccount
[15:06] <Xerran> How do I get out if the terminal after running this?: http://pastebin.com/d199d142e
[15:06] <Xerran> ooops
[15:06] <recon69_lap> yes the gui, trying the cmd line now
[15:06] <joshiggins> recon69_lap: # passwd guestaccount
[15:06] <joaopinto> !google
[15:06] <Xerran> How do I get out of the terminal after running this?: http://pastebin.com/d199d142e
[15:07] <joaopinto> Xerran, you should be careful executing scripts you do not understand
[15:07] <joaopinto> it depends on which part of the script it is, usually CTRL-C will do
[15:07] <ab2qik> joaopinto How do i go about using the livecd instead of a real install?
[15:07] <__theIdiotBox> Pirate_Hunter, yeh...i dont have exact idea on that, btw
[15:08] <schurro> ab2qik: boot from the CD and then the menu comes up, look there for LiveCD or such similar thing.
[15:08] <recon69_lap> well, worked using the cml, but a bit of a let down that the GUI failed
[15:08] <joaopinto> ab2qik, just download the dekstop CD, that's a live cd, it will boot Ubuntu from the CD, before clicking the install icon check your hw was fully recognized
[15:08] <Xerran> joaopinto: I was following this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox/USB
[15:08] <Pirate_Hunter> __theIdiotBox:  no problem will use baskquet for now until i find something better
[15:08] <tim_> i compiled and installed the driver source for my wifi card (via vt6656), but the wifi adapter doesn't show up in networking tools. what did i miss?
[15:08] <__theIdiotBox> Xerran, i better suggest use the automate option for all this things to get rid of the mess/hassle.
[15:08] <joaopinto> Xerran, if you are looking for vbox usb support, make sure you use Sun's version, the one from repositories does not support usb
[15:09] <__theIdiotBox> Pirate_Hunter, fine...:-)
[15:09] <azlon> i just recieved 2 new 500GB HDDs from NewEgg and i want to set them up in a RAID-1. i have read that i need to run a SMART test. how do i do this?
[15:09] <joshiggins> ab2qik: this may be of use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/FujitsuEsprimoV5505
[15:09] <joaopinto> tim_, have you tried to manually load the driver with modprobe -v driver ?
[15:09] <tim_> joaopinto: i have not. will do now.
[15:09] <Xerran> joaopinto: I did th ecommand sin the guide already, i just need to know how to save/exit
[15:09] <Xerran> I get a warning about leaving the terminal
[15:09] <tim_> i'm on virtualbox as well btw, not sure if it matters
[15:09] <__theIdiotBox> joaopinto, very true about the usb support
[15:10] <joaopinto> Xerran, that script shouldn't have nothing to exit from...
[15:10] <FrankLinux> Brasil
[15:10] <joaopinto> Xerran, oh you are on a sudo (root) terminal
[15:10] <__theIdiotBox> FrankLinux, ?
[15:10] <joaopinto> and you left some app running on the background
[15:10] <FrankLinux> #ubuntu-pt
[15:11] <Xerran> joaopinto: it says there is still a process running
[15:11] <Tomasso> I plugged another old monitor to my laptop, ubuntu detected it and I was able to move windows between monitors. But the screen resolution got a bit smaller on my laptop. Now I removed the extra monitor, and the screen resolution is still small, how do I fix it ?
[15:11] <joaopinto> Xerran, just type: exit
[15:11] <joaopinto> again
[15:11] <Xerran> joaopinto: thx
[15:11] <joaopinto> Xerran, but it's odd, I don't see anything launched on the background on the script
[15:11] <tyler_d> I am trying to forward my xsession through an ssh tunnel... ie. log into server 10.10.10.1 then get x to forward locally for server 10.10.10.2... anyone want to help out?
[15:11] <joaopinto> Xerran, that warning happens when you launch something on the background
[15:12] <joaopinto> tyler_d, are you using ssh -X ?
[15:12] <FrankLinux> algem ai é do Brasil?
[15:12] <Xerran> joaopinto: maybe because I'm running VirtualBox?
[15:12] <joaopinto> tyler_d, is Xfowarding in enable on the server sshd config ?
[15:12] <tyler_d> joakim-: yes
[15:12] <joaopinto> !br | FrankLinux
[15:12] <tyler_d> joakim-: yes
[15:12] <x404x> i get "no such file or dir" for root/dev /sys /proc during mount and ubuntu 9.04 fails to boot, it does find the drive and grub/loader. any ideas to fix this ? i have 2 other pcs running that did not crash so i vonder what happened to it. seems to have suddenly nuked some dirs ? I also get initramfs at the bottom of the screen
[15:12] <joaopinto> tyler_d, do an echo $DISPLAT after logging in with ssh -X
[15:12] <joaopinto> ops, DISPLAY
[15:12] <RoRza> I am folowing instructions on how to install git on my Ubuntu server from
[15:12] <RoRza> http://articles.slicehost.com/2009/5/13/capistrano-series-setting-up-git
[15:13] <tyler_d> joakim-: I did DISPLAY=my.ip.add.ress:0.0 ; export DISPLAY already
[15:13] <RoRza> but when I reach the point where it says :  sudo chown git.git /home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys
[15:13] <RoRza> I get an error why is it ?
[15:13] <maniaks> Hey..
[15:13] <tim_> joaopinto: what do i give modprobe -v? the full module path? it says module not found.
[15:13] <maniaks> i just installed ubuntu 9.04, but i have no sounds
[15:13] <RoRza> this is the error
[15:13] <RoRza> chown: cannot access `/home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys': No such file or directory
[15:14] <__theIdiotBox> maniaks, sys config?
[15:14] <maniaks> Mobo : gigabyte ep31-ds3l
[15:14] <ab2qik> joshiggins Thankyou for that link. I think all seems to work apart the sound that needs some fiddling with.
[15:14] <maniaks> its what you need?
[15:14] <joaopinto> tim_, if the module was installed on the expected kernel modules dir, you should not need the pathname
[15:14] <joaopinto> tim_, do a find for the module
[15:15] <fede> hey, can someone tell me why ubunut needs 3 schedulers (anacron, atd, cron) and 2 loggers (klogd, sysklogd)?
[15:15] <maniaks> so what ? __theIdiotBox
[15:15] <tyler_d> joakim-: as well on my local I did xhost + 10.10.10.1
[15:15] <__theIdiotBox> maniaks, nops? h/w...which brand/model no etc? sound prob is pretty well known prob with many brands
[15:15] <joaopinto> tyler_d, when you use X forwarding you do not set your DISPLAY manually, that is an ssh -X task
[15:15] <RoRza> ?
[15:15] <joaopinto> if your DISPLAY is not automatically set, then x forwarding was not properly setup
[15:16] <ociugi> what is the recommended partition for /boot and /swap for a 4gig memory?
[15:16] <joaopinto> tyler_d, xhost, export DISPLAY are for regular X access, you don't need those for X over ssh
[15:16] <ab2qik> Is it correct there are just 2 versions of ubuntu. 1.Desktop 2.server. There is no laptop specific version?
[15:17] <fede> ociugi, swap should be double the amount of memory....for boot it doesnt mather
[15:17] <RoRza> How can I come arrownd this error
[15:17] <RoRza> cd /home/git
[15:17] <maniaks> __theIdiotBox, i think "Realtek Function driver for Realtek Azalia audio chip (Including Microsoft UAA Driver in English edition)" would help
[15:17] <joaopinto> ociugi, for boot just use the default, or don't create a /boot at all, for swap I allways use the 2xram rule, but that's arguable
[15:17] <RoRza> chown: cannot access `/home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys': No such file or directory
[15:17] <joaopinto> ab2qik, there is a netremix whatever edition :P

[15:18] <azlon> !smart

[15:19] <Iyunkateus> Hey everyone, I have a little issue with Ubuntu on one of my computers. It's not really an issue, I can just uninstall and reinstall the latest, but I think it was corrupted attempting to update. Whenever I start it up and log in, it's all black except for my startup programs and says there's a problem with GNOME Power Manager. I see a solid color background and the outlines of the menus whenever I press the power button, right before it turns off.
[15:19] <joaopinto> tyler_d, yw :)
 what happen if i make the swap partition lessthan the memory size for example memry is 4Gig and swap is 2gig? sorry?
[15:20] <tyler_d> X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
[15:20] <tyler_d> X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
[15:20] <joaopinto> ociugi, you will not be able to suspend to ram
[15:20] <fede> ociugi, nothing
[15:20] <ab2qik> joaopinto Need to run lamp on laptop. I dont need to install server version do i. Desktop should work?
[15:20] <loki_> heya all, got a random question, ive got an acer aspire one with 1.60ghz processor but in ubuntu it says the chip is 800mhz, anyone know if thats normal or is something wrong?
[15:20] <tyler_d> joaopinto: X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
[15:20] <tim_> joaopinto: ok, i'm getting 'insmod /lib/modules/...blabla.../modulepath'
[15:20] <__theIdiotBox> maniaks, no clue yet but this might help: www.moderngeek.com/node/10
[15:20] <Iyunkateus> And what's worse is that since I've used Windows most of my life, all I can think to do is press Ctrl-Alt-Del
[15:21] <joaopinto> tyler_d, are you doing an su - after the ssh -X ?
[15:21] <joaopinto> tim_, check "dmesg" to see if was loaded or if there was an error
[15:21] <tyler_d> joaopinto: unfortunately have to use "appusr" to get to a diff user
[15:21] <tyler_d> joaopinto: no way around that
[15:21] <maniaks> __theIdiotBox, i wrote "alsamixer" in bash and there is "chip realtek ALC888"
[15:21] <joaopinto> tyler_d, there is, but you need to setup authentication about doing an su on the remote shell
[15:22] <ociugi> ok thanks
[15:22] <joaopinto> i don't remember the instructiosn right now
[15:22] <__theIdiotBox> maniaks, ltgify...wait a min
[15:22] <joaopinto> tyler_d, http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/494
[15:22] <maniaks> ok
[15:23] <__theIdiotBox> maniaks, ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1155630.html
[15:23] <tim_> joaopinto: last two dmesg entries were the addition of the module and registration of a new usb wifi adapter
[15:23] <tim_> so it doesn't look bad
[15:24] <joaopinto> tim_, it does look good, "lsmod" should also show it
[15:24] <joaopinto> tim_, you may need to restart network manager for it to show up
[15:25] <GuidMorrow> ubuntu makes me feel like I'm using a macintosh
[15:25] <remoteCTR1> can anyone pls tell me how to execute the whoami command from within a php script?
[15:25] <GuidMorrow> I can't find the clock sometimes
[15:25] <malnilion> GuidMorrow, why?
[15:25] <tyler_d> joaopinto: xauth list $DISPLAY shows me no output :s

[15:25] <Iyunkateus> GuidMorrow, I was going to say, in a good way or a bad way?
[15:25] <malnilion> GuidMorrow, the clock's wherever you want it to be...
[15:25] <GuidMorrow> usually the clocks on the lower right-hand corner of the screen
[15:25] <Iyunkateus> GuidMorrow: then move it there
[15:26] <fede> hey, can someone tell me why ubunut needs 3 schedulers (anacron, atd, cron) and 2 loggers (klogd, sysklogd)?
[15:26] <GuidMorrow> can you move it from one panel to the next?
[15:26] <Iyunkateus> GuidMorrow: actually I'm pretty sure you just remove it from one and choose it from a menu on the other one
[15:26] <malnilion> GuidMorrow, of course, just right click on it, unlock it and drag it down.
[15:26] <__theIdiotBox> will be right back...c ya guys
[15:27] <Iyunkateus> @ malnilion: GuidMorrow, that too
[15:27] <dutchbuntu> GuidMorrow: or right-click on your other panel, select 'Add to panel' and choose Clock

[15:28] <jeeves_Moss> malnilion, thanks.
[15:28] <GuidMorrow> how do I turn on my HDD temperature sensor? I enabled it the last time, but...

[15:29] <malnilion> lol
[15:29] <dutchbuntu> jeeves_Moss: #openoffice.org
[15:29] <tyler_d> joakim-: just logged out and in again and got the output... still no go though
[15:30] <tyler_d> joaopinto: just logged out and in again and got the output... still no go though
[15:30] <samadhi> hello geirha are you still around?
[15:30] <tyler_d> joaopinto: unsure though, should I be adding the first $DISPLAY echo on the first server or the second $DISPLAY (the internal where I am su'ing)
[15:30] <Iyunkateus> Has jeeves_Moss...well obbiously he hasn't or that wouldn't autocomplete
[15:31] <Iyunkateus> obviously*
[15:31] <Iyunkateus> lol, obbiously
[15:31] <jeeves_Moss> Iyunkateus, ????
[15:31] <EagleScreen> hello
[15:32] <joaopinto> tyler_d, the first $DISPLAY is from the remote server, but before using su
[15:32] <EagleScreen> the defailt "init=" boot parameter for a Debian system is "init=/sbin/init", which is the default for Ubuntu?
[15:32] <Iyunkateus> jeeves_Moss: For a second I had a mental pause and forgot about that new technology that allows us to be in two places at the same time, or 2 IRC channels at least
[15:32] <joaopinto> EagleScreen, try asking on #debian, we don't use debian here :)
[15:32] <joaopinto> unless I misunderstood your question
[15:33] <jerrcs> You didn't read very well.
[15:33] <ojii> hi everyone. Yesterday my dvd drive just stopped working. I can insert any disk and it just doesn't show up. It does make weird sounds tho and spins the dvd around a lot. It used to work fine before... Any ideas how to fix that?
[15:33] <EagleScreen> i want ot know the Ubuntu default init parameter, I already know the Debian one
[15:33] <jerrcs> He's asking for the init line on ubuntu
[15:33] <jeeves_Moss> Iyunkateus, lol, and don't forget, it allows us to reach out and wake up our exs with a well placed txt msg called from a cron job @ 3am!
[15:33] <tim_> alright, back
[15:33] <joaopinto> ok sorry :P
[15:33] <MikeSeth> ojii: dead drive, probably
[15:33] <majnoon> joaopinto, we more FRIENDLY here then #debian
[15:33] <Iyunkateus> jeeves_Moss: XD
[15:33] <tyler_d> joaopinto: k well this isn't just ssh'ing into one server.. this is going into an access point, then into another server - I want the X forwarded from the internal through the access point and to my machine....:s
[15:33] <tim_> joaopinto: wifi adapter still doesn't show up, but it might be possible that it's a vbox issue and not ubuntu
[15:34] <joaopinto> tyler_d, oh, you want X over ssh over ssh, I am not sure it can be done
[15:34] <jeeves_Moss> Iyunkateus, I LOVE cron jobs.  This mobile e-buddy is a serious pain in the a**!  too bad txting "stop" won't work
[15:34] <ojii> MikeSeth, explain? It's still spinning and detected by ubuntu (scsiadd -s) and it used to work fine. It's also a rather new drive (about 1 year)
[15:34] <Iyunkateus> jeeves_Moss, try PLEASE STOP
[15:34] <MikeSeth> ojii: does it throw errors? (type dmesg)
[15:35] <joaopinto> EagleScreen, that is not an easy question for non developers, maybe at #ubutu-devel someone will be able to help
[15:35] <Iyunkateus> jeeves_Moss: wait, no, try SUDO STOP see if that works
[15:35] <jeeves_Moss> Iyunkateus, lol, ahhhh, a local SMTP server is a BAD thing!
[15:35] <ojii> MikeSeth, what would I look for in dmesg?
[15:35] <MikeSeth> ojii: driver errors, timeout messages etc
[15:35] <joaopinto> tim_, oh wait, you are on vbox ?
[15:36] <Viking_> hello
[15:36] <tyler_d> joaopinto: cool, ty anyhow, very informative :)
[15:36] <joaopinto> are you trying to build the module on a vbox guest ?
[15:36] <jeeves_Moss> Iyunkateus, my ex is a computer geek, so I pulled that one night in an argument.  let's just say that it stopped and we broke out in laughter.  "Sudo, I have the last word and this is the end of the argument"
[15:36] <jeeves_Moss> Iyunkateus, later, I sched a cron job to search her /dev/
[15:37] <joaopinto> tyler_d, you will need to setup a cross ssh tunnel, with -L
[15:37] <ojii> MikeSeth, see anything? http://paste.ubuntu.com/256379/
[15:37] <Viking_> i have script to clean up desktop it works if i run it from my home dir but when i make launcher on desktop i will only hide desktop
[15:37] <GuidMorrow> where are my hard drive temperature sensors
[15:37] <Viking_> here is the script http://tnoergaard.pastebin.com/m2c2ed1af
[15:37] <joaopinto> tyler_d, then, you can ssh directly to your target system, using the -L tunell, however, I don't think the X tunneling will work, because that would require and extra tunneling with -L
[15:37] <Iyunkateus> jeeves_Moss: well I better stop talking about this subject before I get kicked for not talking about support and making bad jokes
[15:37] <Slart> Viking_: "hide" your desktop? sounds weird..
[15:37] <jeeves_Moss> GuidMorrow, lol, in the little sensor diode inside the drive case?
[15:38] <joaopinto> tyler_d, what you can do, is create a -L tunnel, for the X port on the other host, assuming you can reach the X port from your middle host
[15:38] <Viking_> well u right i mean hide desktop icons folders
[15:38] <Viking_> thanks slart
[15:38] <joaopinto> and then you can just export DISPLAY to your local tunnel
[15:38] <MikeSeth> ojii: no, but you are in vbox, does the drive work out of vbox?
[15:38] <tim_> joaopinto: yes, i'm on vbox
[15:38] <joaopinto> tim_, but, it's linux the guess or host ?
[15:38] <tyler_d> joaopinto: talked to a few people, I think I may just have to request a vpn problem then solved
[15:38] <joaopinto> tyler_d, ok :)
[15:38] <Iyunkateus> hey wait I just thought of something; somebody needs to invent a soft drive. Don't know exactly how that would work though
[15:38] <tim_> joaopinto: linux is guest, host is win7 pro
[15:39] <ojii> MikeSeth, vbox= virtualbox right? I'm not... I have that installed but don't use it atm
[15:39] <MikeSeth> ojii: durr
[15:39] <joaopinto> tim_, you can't see you real hardware on a guest system, your attempt to build the kernel doesn't make much sense ;)
[15:39] <joaopinto> ops, kernel module
[15:39] <Iyunkateus> !pastebin
[15:39] <ojii> woah the dvd drive makes scary noises!
[15:39] <MikeSeth> ojii: there arent any error messages.. a broken drive would usually throw some
[15:40] <tim_> joaopinto: i haven't yet progressed to the point where i make sense of my actions :)
[15:40] <MikeSeth> ojii: but your dvd is prolly dead anyway
[15:40] <ojii> it sounds as if the drive literally eats the dvd
[15:40] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, is the disk seated properly on the spindle?
[15:40] <joaopinto> tim_, on your guest system you will only see the vbox emulated network card
[15:40] <tim_> joaopinto: yea, but the wifi card shows up in the usb devices that can be passed on to the guest
[15:40] <ojii> yes jeeves_Moss, tried a lot of different dvds/cds and they work on another pc, and I know how to insert disks
[15:40] <joaopinto> tim_, you need eithe to use NAT or bridge to your host card, using vbox network config
[15:40] <GuidMorrow> reinstalled the hddtemp package, still no sensor
[15:40] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, ok, it was just a question.  is it in a tower?  or a laptop?
[15:41] <joaopinto> tim_, ah,  usb card, ok, that makes more sense
[15:41] <ojii> jeeves_Moss, laptop...
[15:41] <Iyunkateus> I'm not sure if this is long enough to need to be pastebin'd, but no one responded when I actually typed it out: http://paste.ubuntu.com/256382/
[15:41] <tim_> joaopinto: but when i try to add it vbox throws an error about the card being busy with a previous request
[15:41] <joaopinto> tim_, but can't you just setup the usb card on windows ?
[15:41] <nErVe>  hi there I m having problems playing flash videos in firefox 3.0 and not shiretoko.?
[15:41] <joaopinto> then just bridge it or NAT over it from the vbox
[15:41] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, make/brand?
[15:42] <nErVe> what could be the underlying problem.
[15:42] <ojii> jeeves_Moss, it just went wild so i tried to eject the disk, i pressed the drive in a bit and mplayer starts! I guess its a broken contact or whatever
[15:42] <tim_> joaopinto: it's already set up in win7, but i'd like to use it in ubuntu for networking stuff
[15:42] <Viking_> if anyone have solution it will be aprecaited
[15:42] <MikeSeth> Iyunkateus: boot into console, sudo to root and startx - what happens then? (are you sure its not a video driver problem?)
[15:42] <Pupuser402-1> nerve: check to make sure the plugin is installed withing firefox
[15:42] <Kage[Work]> Probably the wrong place to ask, but anyone to know of a good way to auto-generate SSL certificates?
[15:43] <Kage[Work]> Not looking for anything trusted, just a generic snakeoil for when generating new machines
[15:43] <MikeSeth> Kage[Work]: openssl
[15:43] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, does the drive vibrate like mad?  if so, one of the rails may be loose.  my Toshiba did that.  a small jewler's screw driver fixed it
[15:43] <Kage[Work]> MikeSeth, yeah, but it prompts
[15:43] <Kage[Work]> I'm looking for something fully automated
[15:43] <darwish> Kage[Work], use `epxect'
[15:43] <Iyunkateus> MikeSeth: Actually it's on another computer that I can't access right now, but the Ubuntu on this computer is screwed up too
[15:43] <Kage[Work]> That literally you do: generateCert SERVERNAME and it spits out two pems
[15:43] <ojii> jeeves_Moss, it sounds like its 'searching' something for about 2-5 minutes then it changes to a loud scary noise that sounds like a self-destruct mechanism
[15:43] <Kage[Work]> darwish, tried that
[15:43] <nErVe> Pupuser402-1: I checked in firefox to check if the java script is enabled. how do i check for the plugin info you are talkin about.
[15:44] <chessnutmushroom> hi, I am experiencing slow performance with a nvideo geforce 8600m GT using 9.04, any ideas?
[15:44] <Kage[Work]> darwish, ./generateCertificate: line 12: expect: command not found
[15:44] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, pull it out of the laptop.  it sounds like something is loose, and it's more than likley going to cost ya to get a new one
[15:44] <Kage[Work]> Using #!/bin/bash
[15:44] <ojii> jeeves_Moss, can't take it out
[15:44] <MikeSeth> Kage[Work]: it's 4 lines of shell script, just slap it together
[15:44] <darwish> Kage[Work], it's not installed by default on ubuntu
[15:44] <joaopinto> Kage[Work], you need to install expect
[15:44] <maniaks> someone can help me?
[15:45] <maniaks> with sound
[15:45] <ojii> it is kinda loose tho jeeves_Moss
[15:45] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, then my friend, I think you're up a creek with lots of polycarbonate to float on
[15:45] <Kage[Work]> Ah, someone misinformed me that it's a bash command
[15:45] <Pupuser402-1> nerve: it should be listed under addons    (i don't know how to whisp
[15:45] <joaopinto> Kage[Work], install the expect package :)
[15:45] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, are there screws to tighten it up?  as I said, that's what was wrong with my first Toshiba
[15:45] <Kage[Work]> I am
[15:45] <tim_> joaopinto: i guess i'll let it rest for now and eventually add ubuntu to my multi-boot for a proper, native system :)
[15:45] <tim_> thanks for the great advice
[15:45] <xray7224> im really struggling with samba to windows 7 every time i try and see some files on the windows 7 machine it asks for a username and password
[15:45] <joaopinto> tim_, :)
[15:46] <ojii> jeeves_Moss, there's scres but none for the rails... just for the motor/spinning bit and that one is solid
[15:46] <ojii> looks like i have to bring it to the manufacturer
[15:47] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, DON'T screw with the laser or drive assembly.  that'll pooch it.  if the rails are physically loose on the tray, some red locktight can fix that
[15:47] <MikeSeth> xray7224: start poking around with smbclient
[15:48] <nErVe> Pupuser402-1: I have a shockwave flash installed dont know if it help is solving my problem , I cannot find a adobe flash plugin. in the past i had a few problems with sef codec from gnu so switched to adoble flash plugin
[15:48] <ojii> jeeves_Moss, i won't screw anything unless my warranty is expired anyway, looking for it right now
[15:48] <Iyunkateus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256388/
[15:48] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, that's always the best plan

[15:49] <kubu> Hi, pals. Any idea on how i could save ".swf" sound.
[15:49] <ojii> jeeves_Moss, well at least when one knows where the warranty is...
[15:49] <jeeves_Moss> ojii, ok, have fun.  I've got some people to annoy/wake up
[15:49] <Iyunkateus> *cough*cough*
[15:50] <darwish> Justcool, I can't see anyth gstreamer related in the pastebin link
[15:50] <Pupuser402-1> nerve:  k I am not an Ubuntu expert by any means but if I remember correctly, they incorperated an easy install for flash on adobe's site, I would try that, because it may add the correct plug in for you
[15:50] <rodimus> true
[15:51] <nErVe> Pupuser402-1: I tried installing that it said its already installed. Should I take my query to a forum then.
[15:52] <Pupuser402-1> nerve : I think so   or search the forums for simular problems    sry i wasn't much help
[15:52] <Terabyte> hi, when i type  sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop i get "ignoring unkown interface eth0=eth0" is this normalk?
[15:52] <yasser> hi
[15:53] <darwish> Terabyte, check the content of the initscript and see
[15:53] <Justcool> darwish: Sorry, I pastebin wrong thing this is what I am getting when trying "apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-0" http://gstreamer.pastebin.com/m7e0b38d0
[15:53] <yasser> we have a broblem
[15:53] <Terabyte> darwish, i wouldn't know what i'm checking for
[15:53] <Boohbah> yasser: is it that the 'p' key was replaced with the 'b' key? :P
[15:54] <yasser> ok
[15:54] <yasser> problem
[15:54] <orochi> bropably not
[15:54] <KB1PKL> My ubuntu does not launch, and the md5 returns bad, and I've downloaded 2 times already. Any help?
[15:54] <Pupuser402-1> Terabyte:  You may get a clue from ifconfig
[15:54] <nErVe> Pupuser402-1: Its cool dude atleast you replied...Cheers
[15:54] <yasser> in my wirless
[15:54] <icarus-c> KB1PKL: burn the disk at a slower speed
[15:55] <Terabyte> Pupuser402-1: yes well it gives me a load of ip information, but doesn't tell me why it can't stop eth0
[15:55] <ubuntunewbie> hi would like to know is there any good application to schedule record internet radio station ?
[15:55] <KB1PKL> Its going as slow as possible. Its the download that the md5 doesn't come clean on
[15:55] <icarus-c> does ubuntu use md5sum ?
[15:55] <icarus-c> for cd image checksum
[15:55] <Boohbah> icarus-c: yes
[15:56] <icarus-c> ok
[15:56] <Boohbah> icarus-c: you may find them in the same directories as the cd images
[15:56] <azlon> how can i get firefox 3.5?
[15:56] <azlon> i thought it would automatically update
[15:57] <Boohbah> azlon: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[15:57] <samadhi> guys, quick question: how do i make changes in the grub/menu.lst ?
[15:57] <malnilion> azlon, when it installs it will be called "Shiretoko"
[15:57] <silner> azlon, I'm sure there's a ppa somewhere. I'll see if I can find it
[15:57] <malnilion> silner, no need, it's in the repos already
[15:58] <Justcool>  darwish: Is there any problem ?
[15:58] <G_A_C> I got firefox 3.5 from the universe repo
[15:58] <azlon> silner, i got it... Boohbah's apt-get worked
[15:58] <silner> malnilion, oh sorry I don't keep up enough
[15:58] <G_A_C> and then used about:config to change the useragent to firefox from shiretoko
[15:58] <Iyunkateus> malnilion, why is that? Did they import it directly from Japan?
[15:58] <Terabyte> guys the goal is not to have achived turning off the network interface, this isn't some great lifetime achievment, this is one step of many in a tutorial i'm following, which when i'm done following may or may not even get me what i want. for gods sake it's rightclick disable in windows....
[15:58] <darwish> Justcool, you're sure you have enough space in the hard-disk?
[15:58] <G_A_C> otherwise a handful of sites wouldn't recognise it properly
[15:59] <silner> malnilion, I know too many of my addons haven't made the move yet so I have to wait for them :(
[15:59] <Boohbah> G_A_C: silly broken sites
[15:59] <malnilion> Iyunkateus, no it's hard to explain, it has to do with the fact that 1) you'll probably have regular firefox still installed and 2) that it's not an *official* build, I think.
[15:59] <samadhi> guys, quick question: how do i make changes in the grub/menu.lst ?
[15:59] <Boohbah> samadhi: sudo vi /boot/grub/menu.lst
[15:59] <Justcool>  darwish:  I have 800 MB free in Disk, which seem enough :)
[15:59] <samadhi> Boohbah: thanks
[15:59] <februariusx> hi. im looking for good clustering suite for load sharing capabilities
[15:59] <Boohbah> samadhi: or gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst if you prefer
[16:00] <G_A_C> Boohbah: indeed, I probably should have written to them and suggested better browser detection than simply user agent strings, but one of the sites was Facebook so I didn't fancy my chances much...
[16:00] <Boohbah> februariusx: web, app, db, what type?
[16:00] <KB1PKL> My download of Ubuntu is corrupted....twice in a row. Should I try a different mirror?
[16:00] <darwish> Justcool, OK, can you try installing another package and see if the same error exists?
[16:00] <Boohbah> KB1PKL: yes
[16:00] <KB1PKL> Boohbah:OK, thank you
[16:01] <Terabyte> ok for what ever reason, i tried it again, after changing nothing, and it worked
[16:01] <Slart> KB1PKL: try using a torrent.. that way you get automatic error correction
[16:01] <februariusx> Boohbah hmm.. for overall application specially VM
[16:01] <KB1PKL> Slart:OK, I'll try that to
[16:02] <edo_> chat.org
[16:03] <darwish> Justcool, success or failure?
[16:03] <Justcool> darwish: No, I am not getting error when trying other things
[16:04] <g3orges> Hello, what is the lightest software to create a virtual machine under ubuntu ?
[16:04] <Damaki> Hello, I'm new to Ubuntu and I'm having some problems with my network. I've looked for solutions on the internet but they tell me to go to "System -> Administration -> Networking". But the "Networking" option isn't there in the "Administration" menu. How do I enable it?
[16:04] <Damaki> The only option I do have about networking is "Network Tools"
[16:04] <Slart> g3orges: virtualbox is a personal favourite
[16:05] <Slart> g3orges: I'm not sure if a vm can be very light though..
[16:05] <darwish> Justcool, I'll see what does dpkg error code 100 means ..
[16:05] <malnilion> Damaki, networking should be handled mostly by network manager
[16:05] <bubbles|> hi
[16:05] <baldurbuntu> hi
[16:05] <Kage[Work]> joaopinto, know of a way to mute the "send" part of expect?
[16:05] <malnilion> Damaki, the nm-applet should be sitting in your system tray.
[16:05] <Slart> Damaki: menu options move around between versions.. if you tell us what you're trying to do we might be able to tell you where it is in the version you're using
[16:05] <Kage[Work]> I don't see anything
[16:05] <bubbles|> what's that font that is used by default on the shell in ubuntu? (can i use it in windows too?)
[16:06] <joaopinto> Kage[Work], remove them from the script :) ?
[16:06] <baldurbuntu> can anyone chat about a ubuntu problem?
[16:06] <Slart> bubbles|: it's not the "sans" font?
[16:06] <darwish> Justcool, possibly the source can help .. nor man page or googling have enough info .. I'm checking it now
[16:06] <ubuntunewbie> hi would like to know is there any good application to schedule record internet radio station ?
[16:06] <g3orges> Slart i have AMD  Athlon 64 2x 1.9 GHz L2: 1bo, FSB: 1000MHz, 2gb ram and 20gb HDD , will it run smooth ?
[16:06] <Damaki> malnilion: So the nm-applet is the same as the "networking" menu option?
[16:06] <mystamax> hello, i have a laptop i want to upgrade to 9.04, but I'm using a lot of third party software sources. Will it update the software from the ubuntu repositories? Also, what happens to these software sources on an upgrade?
[16:06] <bubbles|> i don't know slart
[16:06] <joaopinto> ubuntunewbie, search for them on synaptic and test drive :)
[16:06] <Damaki> Slart: Sorry, I forgot to mention I'm running Ubuntu 9.04.
[16:06] <darwish> If anyone here have passed a dpkg ``error code 100'',  please ping
[16:06] <EagleScreen> !ask | baldurbuntu
[16:06] <Iyunkateus> baldurbuntu: I'm pretty sure that's what this channel was made for :)
[16:06] <Slart> g3orges: I would say it depends on what guest os you install and what you run in that guest os.. sure, running windows xp with minesweeper will be smooth
[16:06] <baldurbuntu> I installed 9.04 on a dual pentium and jetway motherboard, only get loading...
[16:06] <malnilion> Damaki, well, kind of, it's probably the easiest way to access your networking questions.
[16:07] <baldurbuntu> :)
[16:07] <malnilion> Damaki, er, networking settings.
[16:07] <joaopinto> mystamax, you should disable those software sources before upgrading, and check on their sites if they provide packages for the newer release
[16:07] <Slart> g3orges: running Vista on my quad core 9850 is not a pleasant experience on the other hand
[16:07] <Acs> hey!
[16:07] <g3orges> Slart OS will be winXP , will be running 2 winamp ( classic version with minimum settings) and will my winamp there be able to connect to internet ?
[16:08] <Iyunkateus> I don't like you ubuntu bot, stealing my idea of restating obvious things and then putting a smiley face at the end
[16:08] <Acs> Anyone know the name of the app that is like MS Visio but it's for linux?
[16:08] <G_A_C> Acs: dia?
[16:08] <kaje> How do I roll back a package and its dependencies to an older version in the repository? GUI or TUI methods are fine
[16:08] <Damaki> malnilion: My specific problem is that my /etc/resolv.conf keeps getting reset back to my router's IP, which has a crappy DNS server. I added the OpenDNS servers but they keep getting removed every so often. I'm trying to make the changes permanent.
[16:08] <joaopinto> Acs, oo draw ?
[16:08] <malnilion> Iyunkateus, I found out the Shiretoko question...it was the codename for FF 3.5
[16:08] <Slart> g3orges: your vm can be connected to whatever network connection the host os has running if you want.. and running winamp shouldn't be a problem
[16:08] <joaopinto> kaje, sudo apt-get install package=version
[16:08] <malnilion> Damaki, are you using dhcp?
[16:09] <Damaki> malnilion: yes I am.
[16:09] <malnilion> Weird
[16:09] <kaje> thanks joapinto!
[16:09] <g3orges> Slart okay thanks alot m8 :) u rock
[16:09] <joaopinto> Damaki, edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[16:09] <joaopinto> Damaki, remove the "domain-server" from the request list
[16:09] <Slart> g3orges: you're welcome
[16:09] <Damaki> joaopinto: Ok, thank you.
[16:10] <darwish> Justcool, Isn't it weird the log saying: ``#libgstreamer0.10-0 is already the newest version.'' . It seems you already have the package installed
[16:10] <Acs> joaopinto what?
[16:10] <ubuntu> co tam
[16:10] <darwish> Justcool, it's just purged locals
[16:10] <Acs> I want to draw diagrams like I can in visio
[16:10] <joaopinto> Acs, what what ?
[16:10] <Acs> but I know there is something for linux
[16:10] <joaopinto> Acs, open office draw allows that
[16:10] <Acs> just can't remenber the name of the ap
[16:10] <ubuntu> kurwa
[16:10] <joaopinto> and, dia
[16:10] <Damaki> joaopinto: I have "domain-name-servers". Am I correct in assuming that's what you mean?
[16:10] <Acs> dia
[16:10] <joaopinto> Damaki, that is correct
[16:10] <Acs> that's it
[16:10] <Damaki> joaopinto: Ok, thank you.
[16:11] <Acs> thanks
[16:11] <malnilion> dia kicks arse
[16:11] <joaopinto> Acs, I personally prefer oo draw to dia, but it's your choice :)
[16:11] <Slart> Acs: there's nothing quite like visio for linux.. dia is a pale alternative..
[16:11] <baldurbuntu> does anyone know of an obvious reason why ubuntu cd 9.04 can't start up a computer that had ubuntu 8.04 before?
[16:11] <darwish> Justcool, just in case give me the output of: dpkg -l | grep libgstreamer
[16:11] <g3orges> Slart oh ..; one more question , im a doing this on a server , RPS ... is it possible that kernel wont support virtualization ? or that has nothing to do with it ?
[16:11] <ubuntu> buuu!!!!!!
[16:11] <bullgard4> After updating my kernel routing table is empty. How to restore my kernel routing table?
[16:11] <joaopinto> baldurbuntu,  plenty of reasons, hw not properly supported on the newer kernel/drivers ?
[16:11] <ubuntu> dupa
[16:12] <joaopinto> bullgard4, you mean iptables ?
[16:12] <Slart> g3orges: virtualbox comes with its own kernel module.. if the server kernel doesn't support virtualisation software I don't know what it's for.. =)
[16:12] <darwish> bullgard4, the routing table isn't persistent. Scripts initialize it on each boot
[16:12] <baldurbuntu> ok, jetway L775 and intel core2duo
[16:12] <Justcool> darwish: I am getting 'dpkg command not found'
[16:12] <g3orges> Slart thanks again :)
[16:12] <ubuntu> car draiver
[16:12] <hbekel> bullgard4: the init scripts set that up using the "route" command
[16:12] <bullgard4> darwish: Rebooting did not restore my kernel routing table.
[16:13] <ubuntu> :)
[16:13] <baldurbuntu> do you know where i could fint info on the hardware compatibility?
[16:13] <|lilo|> hello everybody
[16:13] <darwish> Justcool, is this a bootstrapped system or normal CD install?
[16:13] <ubuntu> co tam ziomek
[16:13] <darwish> bullgard4, what's your main goal?
[16:13] <joaopinto> bullgard4, just read what darwish wrote :)
[16:13] <|lilo|> somebody helpe
[16:13] <|lilo|> helpme
[16:13] <ubuntu> gvgvgv
[16:13] <ubuntu> zydy
[16:13] <bullgard4> darwish: To re-establish networking.
[16:14] <Justcool> I am using chroot (hardy system )
[16:14] <darwish> Justcool, now things makes sense now ..
[16:14] <darwish> Justcool, you should have said that
[16:14] <Justcool> darwish: Sorry for that I think this does not matter
[16:15] <woble> hey there, i have a problem with wired networks since i upgraded to jaunty, they keep disconnecting on auth, wireless works.. <-- anyone heard of this before?
[16:15] <darwish> Justcool, you have debootstrapped a chrootdir then local purged it .. right?
[16:15] <|lilo|> hello everybody... i need that somebosy helpme, a parent say me that he needs to mount a cyber.
[16:16] <Justcool> yah I debootstrapped and mounted  /home
[16:16] <|lilo|> i say him that use linux, exactly ubuntu 9.04... the wrong is when he ask me for cybercontrol software
[16:16] <|lilo|> somebody can helpme
[16:16] <|lilo|> i am form colombia
[16:17] <|lilo|> and i dont know to tlak english very well
[16:17] <joaopinto> !es | |lilo|
[16:17] <Justcool> darwish: I have mounted /home with  debootstrapped in chroot dir
[16:17] <DaZ> !co |lilo|
[16:17] <februariusx> what you mean cybercontrol software?
[16:17] <woble> in other words: How can I downgrade network manager?
[16:18] <joaopinto> woble, you can't
[16:18] <woble> I cant? hmmz..
[16:18] <g3orges> Hello i want to install virtual box, i have 2 packages i386 and amd64 ... my processor is amd X2 , so i hould take amd64 or that has nothing to do with it ?
[16:18] <darwish> Justcool, I've done debootstraps several times .. you're sure yours was complete .. every time I have dpkg installed there
[16:18] <darwish> Justcool, http://darwish-07.blogspot.com/2007/08/constructing-minimal-debian-linux-usb.html
[16:18] <woble> And this version is unstable
[16:18] <joaopinto> unless you build it from source, and still it may break your system because of other packages depending on it
[16:18] <paulnickerson> gcc fails with the following error: as: error while loading shared libraries: libopcodes-2.19.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory. i tried apt-get build-deps for gcc and binutils. and nothing worked. can anybody help me please?
[16:18] <soulnet5__> cow-biasa
[16:19] <mgedmin> hardy: is there a way to check whether a server needs rebooting?  does apt-get upgrade drop a file in /var somewhere to indicate when a restart is required?
[16:19] <mgedmin> paulnickerson: you might want to do a filename-based search on packages.ubuntu.com to see which package ships libopcodes-2.19.1.so
[16:20] <g3orges> Hello i want to install virtual box, i have 2 packages i386 and amd64 ... my processor is amd X2 , so i hould take amd64 or that has nothing to do with it ?
[16:20]  * woble is going to downgrade back to intrepid
[16:20] <mgedmin> g3orges: it depends on whether you're running 32-bit or 64-bit os; check with uname -m (i686 -> 32-bit, x86_64 -> 64-bit)
[16:20] <Justcool> darwish: I followed this page http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/wiki/GStreamer_Cross_Compile_With_MinGW_In_Chroot_Environment
[16:21] <g3orges> mgedmin it i686 , so ?
[16:21] <KB1PKL> *sigh* This is my third mirror, and the md5sum still didn't come out good. I'm downloading from the torrent
[16:21] <sipior> paulnickerson: can you verify the existence and permissions of /usr/lib/libopcodes-2.19.1.so?
[16:21] <mgedmin> g3orges: get the i386 package then (or just sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose)
[16:21] <paulnickerson> mgedmin: looks like it's binutils, but i have the latest version and i already apt-get build-deps on it
[16:21] <hbekel> paulnickerson: have you tried to locate the file?
[16:21] <yo34ps3> when you install an alpha release, do you have to reinstall the next alpha completely?
[16:22] <mgedmin> yo34ps3: you could try to upgrade with apt-get or aptitude (or synaptic, or update-manager)
[16:22] <|lilo|> thanks
[16:22] <mgedmin> yo34ps3: reinstalling might be safer, but also more tedious
[16:22] <paulnickerson> sipior: not there
[16:22] <mgedmin> also, alpha releases and "safe" don't really mix ;)
[16:22] <sipior> paulnickerson: might be worth reinstalling binutils
[16:23] <yo34ps3> thanks
[16:23] <paulnickerson> hbekel: i tried cd / then sudo find | grep libopcodes
[16:23] <darwish> Justcool, ok .. If I were you I'll debootstrap again (just the ``#sudo debootstrap hardy mingw-chroot'' line) and see if dpkg is there
[16:23] <mgedmin> paulnickerson: mg@platonas:~ $ ls -l /usr/lib/libopcodes-2.19.1.so
[16:23] <mgedmin> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 555116 2009-02-10 18:13 /usr/lib/libopcodes-2.19.1.so
[16:23]  * mgedmin hopes 2 lines don't count as a flood
[16:23] <g3orges> mgedmin was following a tutorial but will try your way :) thanks ....
[16:23] <darwish> Justcool, if it's not, then something is wrong in the repository OR you've accidently removed 'dpkg' from your chroot OR dpkg is there in the wrong permission
[16:24] <paulnickerson> ls: cannot access /usr/lib/libopcodes-2.19.1.so: No such file or directory
[16:24] <Terabyte> hey , i'm trying to setup a bridge for virtualbox, following this tutorial: http://www.bluetwanger.de/blog/2007/04/30/host-networking-with-virtualbox-on-ubuntu-704-feisty/    but i'm getting errors along the lines of "error: "net .piv4.conf.tap0.proxy_arp is an unkown key, interface tap0 does not exist!"
[16:24] <mgedmin> g3orges: well, virtualbox-ose is probably older than what you'd get from upstream, and it lacks some features that the non-free version has, but it's easier to install
[16:24] <g3orges> mgedmin i got that error : no suitable module for running kernel found ? :/ HELP ?
[16:24] <darwish> Justcool, you have no ``$CHROOT/usr/bin/dpkg'' .. right?
[16:24] <mgedmin> g3orges: although installing the upstream package following a tutorial might be easier than installing the package without a tutorial
[16:25] <mgedmin> g3orges: you need to also install virtualbox-ose-modules and dkms
[16:25] <mgedmin> g3orges: or go back to the tutorial, which may be simpler
[16:25] <darwish> Justcool, so the first step now is to please check /usr/bin/dpkg in your chroot and see if it's executable .. actually try running it too with --help to see if everything is fine
[16:26] <Justcool> darwish: yah it giving error
[16:26] <mgedmin> Terabyte: did you know that newer versions of Virtualbox can do all that for you automatically from the virtualbox GUI?
[16:26] <paulnickerson> sipior: removing, reinstalling binutils seems to have fixed the problem. thanks!
[16:26] <Terabyte> mgedmin, no i didn't
[16:26] <Terabyte> mgedmin: i'll try that thanks
[16:26] <darwish> Justcool, which is?
[16:27] <mgedmin> feisty (7.04) was a long time ago (early 2007, in fact)
[16:27] <Justcool> darish : $CHROOT/usr/bin/dpkg''
[16:28] <KB1PKL> Is the md5sum always accurate?
[16:28] <JACKSU> can anyone tell me if its possible to use cygwin on windows, to modify/play with ubuntu server, running in virtual machine from my windows, please /q
[16:28] <DaZ> KB1JWQ, just... lol
[16:28] <Amnesia> Hi, does anyone know anything 'bout a stripped down ubuntu which only has basic stuff in it?
[16:29] <Terabyte> ok so i fiddled with my /etc/network/interfaces file, i made a backup before hand, but after restoring the backup and restarting the networking start command, it doesn't start eth0
[16:29] <DaZ> Amnesia, debian?
[16:29] <darwish> Justcool, no I want you to chroot to your directory using:
[16:29] <darwish>  $ chroot <YOUR-CHROOTED-DIR> /bin/bash -i
[16:29] <Terabyte> should note there was no eth0 in the original file....
[16:29] <malnilion> Haha, I was going to suggest debian as well, DaZ
[16:29] <Amnesia> DaZ: yeah but according to a friend I should take debian sid since it uses the same repos
[16:29] <mgedmin> Amnesia: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/jeos
[16:29] <Amnesia> DaZ: and I can't either find the iso of it..
[16:29] <hbekel> JACKSU: if you have ssh in cygwin you should be able to log into your ubuntu
[16:29] <darwish> Justcool, and then go to /usr/bin from there and execute dpkg. Are you following me?
[16:29] <DaZ> amerinese, same repos? ;o
[16:30] <DaZ> debian doen't use ubuntu repostiories
[16:30] <Amnesia> ahh 'kay
[16:30] <JACKSU> hbekel and how would i find out if i have ssh in cyg
[16:30] <Amnesia> what does a "virtual kernel consist"?
[16:30] <hbekel> JACKSU: do you know what ssh is?
[16:30] <mgedmin> Amnesia: or you could use install a minimal system from an Ubuntu Server CD
[16:31] <Justcool> darwish : getting this http://gstreamer.pastebin.com/m2c252302
[16:31] <Amnesia> m'kay
[16:31] <Amnesia> thanks folks
[16:31] <Amnesia> ta ra
[16:31] <Terabyte> surely if i restore the backup everything should go back to tnormal
[16:31] <Terabyte> is there no way to reset to 'factory' settings?
[16:31] <darwish> Justcool, use a space between ``mingw-chroot'' and ``/bin/bash''
[16:31] <malnilion> Amnesia, also: http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/
[16:31] <mgedmin> Terabyte: in theory, you're right
[16:31] <Amnesia> ahh 'kay thanks
[16:31] <mgedmin> Terabyte: a reboot could help, or maybe you need to restart Network Manager
[16:32] <mgedmin> Terabyte: when /etc/network/interfaces doesn't explicitly list eth0, it's managed by Network Manager
[16:32] <darwish> Justcool, and make sure mingw-chroot is in your current directory (i.e., the relative path is correct .. otherwise use an absolute path)
[16:32] <amerinese> daz:?
[16:32] <Terabyte> cool
[16:32] <Terabyte> ok how would i restart network manager (will reboot in the meantime)
[16:32] <DaZ> amerinese, ...?
[16:32] <g3orges> what does : has broken dependencies mean ?
[16:32] <Justcool> darwish: done but nothing getting as output
[16:32] <rimen> Hello
[16:32] <g3orges> mgedmin broken dependencies error while isntalling , help ?
[16:32] <darwish> Justcool, you should have a shell now
[16:32] <amerinese> daz: what repos?  what was that in reference to?
[16:32] <nmvictor> hello rimen
[16:32] <rimen> can someone help me about Totem Media Player
[16:32] <darwish> Justcool, supposedly now, the chroot dir is treated as root
[16:32] <Justcool> darwish : ah
[16:32] <Justcool> ~yah
[16:33] <mgedmin> Terabyte: I thought that when you edited the /etc/network/interfaces file, n-m automatically re-read it, no idea why it didn't work for you
[16:33] <nmvictor> rimen, what about it?
[16:33] <malnilion> Amnesia, or if you want Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[16:33] <mgedmin> nice way to screw up your ssh session is to save /etc/network/interfaces in the middle of an edit
[16:33] <DaZ> amerinese, i meant Amnesia :f
[16:33] <Terabyte> mgedmin: just rebooting :)
[16:33] <darwish> Justcool, now I want you to open a new terminal and make sure that the content of root is different than the content you can see from your chrooted shell
[16:33] <DaZ> amerinese, tabfail, sorry.
[16:33] <darwish> Justcool, mainly, I want to make sure you're really in the chroot now
[16:33] <mgedmin> actually, maybe that magical autoreload is only happening since jaunty
[16:33] <rimen> Totem is the only player that have sound on my pc, but its also the only one that have wrong aspect ratio...
[16:34]  * mgedmin finds the answer to his question: /var/run/reboot-required
[16:34] <Justcool> darwish: I have different content now
[16:34] <darwish> Justcool, for example check /home contents from the chroot terminal, and /home from a new terminal .. They *should* differ
[16:34] <Terabyte> mgedmin: it's  working :)
[16:34] <darwish> Justcool, great
[16:34] <sumedh> what is the best dvd writer for ubuntu
[16:34] <darwish> Justcool, now from your chroot terminal, go to /usr/bin
[16:34] <mgedmin> no, hardy used something else... assuming hardy used anything
[16:35] <rimen> it seams like I can't get aspect ratio right, all ratios that are in view menu are wrong... how could I fix this thing, I checked all totem blogs on forums but it seams like no one has an answer
[16:35] <snikker> hi, i've got a problem  thi wireless card... i'm associated to AP, but i'm unable to ping nothing, i've got:  "Destination Host Unreachable "
[16:35] <a94060> could someone tell me how to visit my windows shares on ubuntu?
[16:35] <Justcool> darwish : done
[16:35] <samurai> dvd writer for ubuntu
[16:35] <darwish> Justcool, now type the following: ./dpkg --help
[16:35] <samurai> anybody?
[16:36] <Flare183> !burners | samurai
[16:36] <baldurbuntu> well, thanks anyway, im sure an irc is a nice idea :)
[16:36] <Justcool> darwish: getting http://gstreamer.pastebin.com/m45ee7d63
[16:36] <nmvictor> samurai: brasero(preferred), Gnoe baker,KB3
[16:36] <mgedmin> rimen: Totem doesn't exactly burst with bells and whistles; if it has working audio then it must be possible to configure other players to have working audio
[16:36] <mgedmin> rimen: have you tried mplayer -ao pulse?
[16:36] <mgedmin> rimen: mplayer is the swiss-army-tool of video players; it's not exactly very convenient, but it can be made to play anything
[16:37] <levander> What is a sure fire way to test my sound card?  Like, from the command prompt, I want something that should play sound.
[16:37] <darwish> Justcool, OK. I'm guessing you can't install any package from there
[16:37] <rimen> I tried mplayer and VLC... both of them can't play sound, I have tried every possible audio driver on them
[16:37] <a94060> i like mplaye]
[16:37] <samurai> ubottu: confused, please help
[16:37] <darwish> Justcool, i.e. any apt-get install from your current terminal will fail
[16:37] <a94060> 5 352e 0*3ayer,haha
[16:37] <g3orges> Can someone checkout my error please ? http://pastebin.com/m2bec8121 thankss
[16:37] <rimen> I do have mplayer, but it can't play sound at all
[16:37] <samurai> brasero
[16:37] <mgedmin> levander: I usually do mplayer ~/Music/somemp3file.mp3
[16:37] <samurai> is it
[16:37] <nmvictor> samurai: ok, brasero must be available if you ate using gnome
[16:38] <samurai> ok
[16:38] <samurai> thanks
[16:38] <levander> g3orges: You tried 'apt-get -f install' like the output suggested?
[16:38] <mystamax> joaopinto: i forgot to say thanks to your reply earlier. so Thanks :)

[16:38] <Kapli> Hi, is it possible to share files between ubuntu and windows with network cable connecting the two computers?
[16:38] <w_a_n_d> Hi everyone -- I am a novice user who just bought a VPS and it came with Ubuntu 64bit I believe..  The problem is, the sources.list it shipped with is giving me nothing but errors..  Can someone please show me how to fix my sources.list?  Here is a pastebin of the list, and the errors I get when trying to apt-get anything:  http://bcas.tv/paste/results/rETuLP27.html
[16:39] <nmvictor> kapil: possible with packages like samba and somemore
[16:39] <darwish> Justcool, simply the chroot image is corrupted. AFAIK dpkg *should* be there .. It's an *essential* package
[16:39] <joaopinto> mystamax, np :)
[16:39] <darwish> Justcool, your chroot is corrupted
[16:39] <majnoon> anyone have any urls for speeding up internet connection in linux ??
[16:39] <Kapli> nmvictor: can you go into more detail? I have installed samba
[16:40] <darwish> Justcool, every Debian or Ubuntu debootstrap should have `dpkg' ..
[16:40] <dayo> how can i tell which version gnome i'm using?
[16:40] <Justcool> darwish: I am getting any error in installing other things
[16:40] <g3orges> levander stupid me ... i jsut did it worked ..
[16:40] <dayo> majnoon: www.squid-cache.org
[16:40] <boingboingbongg> hey people how are you doing
[16:40] <g3orges> levander but during setup .. it says i shold install kernel headers ? anything on that ?
[16:40] <darwish> Justcool, exactly .. cause your chroot environment misses an ``Essential'' package
[16:40] <rimen> what do I do with mplayer to play sound
[16:40] <majnoon> dayo, i'll look thanx
[16:40] <dayo> majnoon: u're from identi.ca, right? !drupal?
[16:40] <dayo> majnoon: u're welcome
[16:40] <nmvictor> Kapli: Me too but have never decided to configure it yet.
[16:41] <darwish> Justcool, It's like an operating system where someone opened its root and deleted some files there
[16:41] <Kapli> =/
[16:41] <andresmh> I'm trying to install Acrobat Reader. I added (I think) medibuntu repos and then I did sudo apt-get install acroread but I got this error: Package acroread is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[16:41] <levander> g3orges: Have you compiled anything yourself?  That would be only reason you need kernel headers.
[16:41] <nmvictor> Kapli: however, their are lots of tutorials, just google
[16:41] <levander> g3orges: Paste the output of the command.
[16:41] <darwish> Justcool, now I should go .. I hope your problem is clear now (it should be)
[16:41] <boingboingbongg> Hey can anyone point me to a resource for video tutorials on networking?
[16:41] <Ben64> hey, ubuntu wants me to upgrade my kernel, but nvidia isn't listed in the upgrade list.... is it gonna screw stuff up? I though nvidia needed to be updated with each new kernel?
[16:42] <crashoverride> I just install namp on ubuntu 9.04.so how do I get it up and runing so i can be safer from outher people in here ?????//
[16:42] <jeeves_Moss> how can I fix the line spacing in a document in OpenOffice?  I've tried setting the page spacing to single space, and yet, NOTHING on the lage changes
[16:42] <darwish> Justcool, Bye :0
[16:42] <DaZ> Ben64, sometimes it doesn't
[16:42] <levander> Ben64: I don't know, but I bet the nvidia driver is a dependency of the kernel.  So, it'll get pulled with the kernel.
[16:42] <boingboingbongg> I searched google and found lots of tutorials but cudnt find a resource with video tutorials
[16:42] <mystamax> Ben64: I upgraded my kernel last night w/o issue. I have a nVidia card
[16:42] <Ben64> levander: but it's not saying it will upgrade
[16:43] <jeeves_Moss> levander, good luck with the nVidia thing.  I fought for MONTHS, and I still didn't get it working fully
[16:43] <AndyB> Hi, i am trying to install this https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/xserver-no-backfill package so i can use desktop effects with my ati card. I have added the software sources but it does not say what do to next. Any advice?
[16:43] <crashoverride> did yall read what i said
[16:43] <levander> jeeves_Moss: I'd try to find an OpenOffice channel.  Look on openoffice.org for one.
[16:43] <Ben64> crashoverride: what is namp
[16:43] <levander> Ben64: Maybe it's just saying the main packages it will upgrade, but those main packages have dependencies, and the dependencies will upgrade also?
[16:43] <g3orges> levander pastebin.com/m6d787501 is the error log
[16:43] <crashoverride> look it for on google
[16:44] <crashoverride> if yall dont know what nmap is
[16:44] <levander> jeeves_Moss: Wrong person, I'm not doing anything with nvidia.
[16:44] <Ben64> levander: thats not how the updater works, it shows all dependancies
[16:44] <linuxninja> is anyone one here Ubuntu certified?
[16:44] <mystamax> crashoverride: you said namp, not nmap
[16:44] <Ben64> crashoverride: you totally said namp
[16:44] <Justcool> darwish: thanks :)
[16:44] <Ben64> crashoverride: sudo apt-get install nmap
[16:44] <rizoma> hi, i need to choose from two xorg.conf before login, it's that possible?
[16:44] <Ben64> but i don't know how nmap makes you safer from "people in here"
[16:45] <crashoverride> like yall tell everyone in here GO look it up on google
[16:45] <levander> g3orges: Hmmm, as part of the install process, virtualbox is trying to compile something...
[16:45] <darwish> Justcool, you're welcome :)
[16:45] <Ben64> crashoverride: or maybe you can READ what we've said
[16:45] <mystamax> just maybe
[16:45] <crashoverride> i have install it
[16:45] <g3orges> levander apaprently he said kernel is not suitable .. so he tried comiling , i think its own kernel , he said to do taht then launch setup again .. now what ?
[16:45] <crashoverride> I need to know how to run it
[16:46] <Ben64> crashoverride: type "nmap"
[16:46] <crashoverride> did]
[16:46] <Ben64> done
[16:46] <zango> crashoverride: you haven't be hanging out with acidburn again have you? :O
[16:46] <crashoverride> i need to hide my ip
[16:46] <levander> g3orges: No, it's trying to compile a driver, for which you always need to compile against the kernel headers.
[16:46] <Ben64> nmap doesn't hide ips
[16:46] <nmvictor> Anyone know how to configure mysql, whenever i boot cupsd and mysqld are the ones that report a fail, i have evrything working, php, apache, phpmyadmin now i just wanna have mysql database up and running.
[16:46] <AndyB> crashoverride, then use a proxy
[16:46] <levander> g3orges: 'sudo apt-get linux-headers-generic'
[16:47] <leila> Hi all, Is there a way for me to map keys to automatically use the modifiers ctrl+alt ?
[16:47] <crashoverride> where do i get a proxy
[16:47] <levander> g3orges: actually, what is the output of uname -r for you?
[16:47] <crashoverride> here do i get a proxy
[16:47] <mgedmin> andresmh: wasn't the name of the package acroread-nonfree?  try searching with apt-cache search acrobat
[16:47] <digital1> hi
[16:48] <levander> And g3orges, if you compile your own driver, every time the kernel gets upgraded in the repositories (and you try to download it with apt-get or synaptic) that driver is going to break, needs to be recompiled.
[16:48] <rizoma> sorry fro repeat myself, anyone know how to choose from two different xorg configuration before login?
[16:48] <mgedmin> andresmh: personally, I much prefer Evince over Acrobat, although I suppose there might be features that it doesn't support
[16:48] <crashoverride> how do i get a proxy
[16:48] <digital1> help for me, my ubuntu 9.04 have display black
[16:49] <hbekel> leila: that's a little vague, can you give an example?
[16:49] <mgedmin> digital1: ouch.  do you know what kind of video card you have (intel, ati, nvidia)?
[16:49] <g3orges> levander 2.6.27.10-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv4-32
[16:49] <dos000> anyone tried building openjdk on intrepid ? i am getting a stupid error and no google help so far
[16:49] <crashoverride> i have ask yall 3 times now .tell me where i can get a proxy
[16:49] <levander> g3orges: damn boy, you got all kinda weird setup
[16:49] <andresmh> mgedmin, evince has a bug since 2005 that is important to me: the ability to select text in a 2-column docment
[16:49] <mgedmin> digital1: is this after a fresh install, an upgrade from an older ubuntu, after a kernel upgrade, or after an X configuration change?
[16:49] <digital1> mgedmin: geforce 6600
[16:49] <dos000> common/internal/BinaryPlugs.gmk:133: *** target pattern contains no `%'.  Stop.
[16:49] <g3orges> levander what does taht mean ? ::
[16:50] <andresmh> mgedmin, E: Couldn't find package acroread-nonfree
[16:50] <nanotube> !karmic
[16:50] <digital1> new install image to ubuntu
[16:50] <levander> g3orges: sudo apt-get linux-headers-`uname -r`
[16:50] <crashoverride> TELL ME WHERE O CAN GET A PROXY
[16:50] <gaffo_laptop> crashoverride, http://tinyurl.com/qu6a8o
[16:50] <mgedmin> andresmh: I wasn't sure of the package name, that's why I suggested searching with apt-cache search
[16:50] <levander> g3orges: Note the back ticks around uname -r, they're important.
[16:50] <levander> g3orges: That should get the headers you need.
[16:51] <mgedmin> andresmh: hey, actually there is an 'acroread' package in the official Canonical Partner repository
[16:51] <leila> hbekel, I have a logitech G11 with all these nice extra buttons and I have them mapped in linux. However since wine has everything hardcoded it does not see these new scan-codes (ok with xmodmap they are forwarded to the kfree86 variant and most are unkown to wine as well). Now I was thinking as a work-around if I could make the G1 key behave like ctrl-alt-1 wine would probably pick it up and I would be  able to use the keys in like games.
[16:51] <majnoon> dayo, installed it how do i USE it now ??
[16:51] <mgedmin> andresmh: you can enable it with a checkbox in system -> administration -> software sources
[16:51] <levander> g3orges: The output of 'uname -r' is the kernel version you're running.  If that's what you were asking when you said "What does that mean?"
[16:51] <digital1> and.....
[16:52] <crashoverride> YOi am a home user so do i need a proxy
[16:52] <dayo> majnoon: it's actually a proxy. i use it on our network to manage the bandwidth
[16:52] <mgedmin> digital1: ouch again.  I've got an nvidia 7600 and ubuntu 9.04 works for me; my sister has the same card and I could never figure out how to get ubuntu to work on her pc...
[16:52] <g3orges> levander http://pastebin.com/mdc8506f :/
[16:52] <mgedmin> I now just try to avoid nvidia cards like the plague
[16:52] <majnoon> then SHOULD be automatic ??
[16:52] <nmvictor> Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)  thats the output whenever i start mysql, anyone know how i could configure mysql to work?
[16:53] <levander> g3orges: Where did you get the kernel you are running?
[16:53] <ubuntu_> hello
[16:53] <levander> g3orges: Did you compile it yourself?
[16:53] <g3orges> levander its a server in a server farm ... rented server
[16:53] <hbekel> leila: i vaguely remember that you can redefine keys in such a manner in the keyboard input device section of xorg.conf
[16:53] <dayo> majnoon: no, u need to configure it first. depending on the scenario u're trying to create. the config file should be in /etc/squid/squid.conf
[16:53] <levander> g3orges: is it a VPN or a dedicated machine?
[16:53] <dayo> majnoon: what exactly are u trying to implement, maybe i can help
[16:53] <g3orges> levander yes its called RPS , real private server
[16:54] <majnoon> i want to speed up secondlife and flash videos (streaming)
[16:54] <dayo> majnoon: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples
[16:54] <AndyB> Hi, i am trying to install this https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/xserver-no-backfill package so i can use desktop effects with my ati card. I have added the software sources but it does not say what do to next. Any advice?
[16:54] <nocleader> Whats a good way to grep a LARGE file that hangs when I try and grep it ( I can tail the file)?  Do I have to split it up?
[16:54] <llua> is there a way to get my media keys to work while in full screen games?
[16:54] <dayo> majnoon: then i guess u would want to configure delay pools. hang on let me find u a good link.
[16:54] <boss_mc> AndyB: run apt-get update to get the package list from the server
[16:55] <boss_mc> AndyB: then install the package you want as normal (or it might appear as an upgrade)
[16:55] <levander> g3orges: The thing is, usually packages look in a directory called /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` when they are looking for kernel source code.  You need to find the source code that was compiled to make the kernel and put it in that directory.
[16:55] <dayo> majnoon: to speed up stuff like that, u want to allocate a large(r) portion of your available bandwidth to flash et al. then have squid cache it
[16:55] <levander> g3orges: Are you sure this RPS isn't a VPN?  You have your own computer in their farm?  Not just a piece of software that looks like a computer?
[16:56] <Brian__> the cpu on my net book when nothing is running is at 60-68 percent full
[16:56] <AndyB> boss_mc, i have updated the list but i do not know what the package name is
[16:56] <boss_mc> AndyB: is it not called xserver-no-backfill?
[16:56] <dayo> majnoon: http://quark.humbug.org.au/publications/squid/aclsquid.html
[16:57] <g3orges> levander that's exactly it http://www.ovh.com/fr/produits/rps3.xml and i dont think its dedidated :/
[16:57] <AndyB> boss_mc, Thats what i thought but keeps saying could not find package. no matter how many times i run the update
[16:57] <Brian__> should my cpu be running so close to 100 percent with nothing active
[16:57] <levander> g3orges: for example, if you were to 'sudo apt-get linux-headers-2.6.2.xxx', the headers would go in the directory "/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.2.xxx".  So, you need your headers in a directory called "/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6-ipv4-xxxx" - whatever your long string was.
[16:57] <dayo> majnoon: are u going to use it just on your local desktop/laptop or will squid run on a server?
[16:57] <Brian__> rite now nothing is open and it at 59%
[16:57] <Jari--> hi, is it difficult to upgrade Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty without any GUIs, just console?
[16:57] <Jari--> if so, how?
[16:58] <majnoon> local
[16:58] <levander> g3orges: You can't run virtual box inside a VPS (virtual private server), you have to run it on the operating system actually running on the hardware.
[16:58] <boss_mc> AndyB: according to the site, the package is probably called xserver-xorg so it should appear as an update to your normal copy (or you'll have to force version in synaptic)
[16:58] <grawity> Jari--: It is easy.
[16:58] <llua> is there a way to get my media keys to work while in full screen games?
[16:58] <Jari--> grawity: can you tell me how...
[16:58] <Jari--> how long does it take?
[16:58] <levander> g3orges: that solves it? cause i gotta go unless you have another quick question
[16:59] <pikacode> just added a nice video card and second monitor to my pc, both come up just fine, but the panels are on the left monitor when i'd like them on the right monitor. easy way to change?
[16:59] <AndyB> boss_mc, ah that worked, but it says its already at the newest version, how do i force it?
[16:59] <g3orges> levander so the answer is , i cant create virtualmachine isnide it :( right ?
[16:59] <boss_mc> Jari--: just type do-release-upgrade
[16:59] <dayo> majnoon: i'm going to paste a sample config which might be applicable to your scenario. gimme a minute
[16:59] <levander> g3orges: That machine is already running some kind of virtualization software, and you're one of the guests inside the virtualization software.
[16:59] <boss_mc> AndyB: open up synaptic, search for xserver-xorg
[16:59] <levander> g3orges: Why did you want to run virtual box inside a VPS?
[17:00] <boss_mc> AndyB: select it and click package->force version
[17:00] <Madsy> Where can I find the Ubuntu kernel sources for other architectures than x86? They aren't available on archive.ubuntu.com
[17:00] <boss_mc> AndyB: see what options are there
[17:00] <g3orges> levander for winamp + shoutcast .... wine is not letting winamp connect to the internet :/
[17:00] <grawity> Jari--: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades#7.04%20to%207.10%20%28Feisty%20to%20Gutsy%29
[17:00] <boss_mc> Brian__: run top in a console and see what's using the processor, it might be compiz or a stalled firefox process
[17:01] <levander> g3orges: why not just run winamp on your PC at home?
[17:01] <majnoon> dayo, you on yahoo or aim ??
[17:01] <dayo> majnoon: both
[17:01] <g3orges> levander its for a radio , icant keep my homepc on 24/7 :/
[17:01] <savid> How do I kill gnome-panel without having it automatically restart?  I remember some prefs window where I could change that, but can't remember where it is...
[17:01] <levander> g3orges: Check out alternative packages written for Linux.  I'm sure there are some.
[17:01] <grawity> savid: gconf-editor
[17:02] <levander> g3orges: What you were doing was a huge hack and a lotta work anyway.  It's better off you can't do it.
[17:02] <grawity> savid: I don't remember the exact path, but search for 'required-components'
[17:02] <ubuntunewbie> hi would like to know is there any good application to schedule record internet radio station ?
[17:02] <levander> g3orges: Just find a native Linux audio streamer.
[17:02] <nmvictor> Can someone please help me configure mysql in ubuntu, whenever i start it from the terminal, it gives the output: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[17:02] <hbekel> leila: quick hack: bind your special key to a script and send fake key events using xdotool?
[17:02] <alexanderXubuntu> Anyone here? Using Xubuntu?
[17:02] <grawity> alexanderXubuntu: Just ask your question.
[17:02] <g3orges> levander shoutcast runs smoothly ... i make it connect to localhost ... and put shoutcast serv on same machine .. but other plugins need internet and not working ...
[17:02] <levander> g3orges: And, I didn't answer your question directly.  No, you can not run virtual box inside a VPS.
[17:02] <AndyB> boss_mc, I ran the search, there is no package option for xserver-xorg, only the option to remove. however there is a package called xserver-xorg-dev that is not installed, its comments say no backfill. im going to assume thats it. Ill try installing it
[17:03] <savid> grawity,   I know there used to be a prefs window where you could change that,  where it showed a list of apps that started up,  and the "startup type",  and you'd chagne the icon to a trashcan or whatever...
[17:03] <alexanderXubuntu> I was following a guide, which said: (System -> Preferences -> Appearance)  and click Install and point to our newly created MyTheme.tar.gz archive.    But I seem not to find that buttom where Ican install ?
[17:03] <g3orges> levander i can broadcast with linux ... but i havethta song requester system , only works under winamp :/ so im stuck again
[17:03] <savid> grawity,  not sure if gnome has that any more though.. maybe they took it out
[17:03] <boss_mc> AndyB: you don't right click on the package name, it's in the menu's at the top (it shouldn't be but... what you gonna do?)
[17:03] <grawity> alexanderXubuntu: The guide is probably for GNOME. Try simply dragging the .tar.gz to the appearance settings window (to the list)
[17:03] <leila> hbekel, thanks I shall try that
[17:04] <llua> is there a way to get my media keys to work while in full screen games?
[17:04] <levander> g3orges: Winamp is a client.  Why do you need to run the winamp client on the server?
[17:04] <alexanderXubuntu> Nope grawity, it won't allow me.
[17:04] <Tyrus> llua, not really  whats a "media key"  anyway?
[17:05] <hbekel> leila: not sure if that would work...
[17:05] <g3orges> levander winamp has shoutcast plugin .. braodcasts to shoutcast server , and the songrequest plugin is under winamp too .. shoutcast server needs winamp to brodacst
[17:05] <alexanderXubuntu> It just makes it return to the folder where its placed.
[17:05] <boss_mc> Tyrus: like play/pause keys on a keyboard
[17:05] <millevat> hello there
[17:05] <grawity> Tyrus: Many keyboards have special "media" keys such as play, pause, stop, volume control.
[17:05] <boss_mc> !hi
[17:05] <Tyrus> solution: get a normal keyboard without gimmiks
[17:05] <AndyB> boss_mc, when i select it and click package, the force version menu option is blanked out/disabled. Ive installed the dev nobackfill version. Im on a fresh install so im going to run all updates and reboot. See if my ati card will still work
[17:05] <savid> Ugh.  Where does gnome-panel keep its config?  I deleted the apps/panel dir in gconf but its still not resetting
[17:05] <levander> g3orges: Are you sure you can't run Winamp on a different machine when you do that thing you're talking about?
[17:06] <millevat> i want to install linux on an external hdd drive but gag doesn't read external usb drives. how i can make it read external hdd?
[17:07] <leila> hbekel, perhaps in combination with xbindkeys
[17:07] <g3orges> levander i can do taht .. but then i would need a windwos server , and these cost alot :/ licences ....
[17:07] <alexanderXubuntu> Anyone knows how to install a new theme ? I am using Xubuntu 9.0.1...
[17:07] <Lartza_> How do I map FTP drive to ubuntu? I don't have gnome and the menus I am on openbox.
[17:08] <levander> g3orges: What I'm wondering is there's a package in Ubuntu called icecast-server.  I'm wondering if you could use icecast instead of shoutcast, and just use icecast on the Linux server at the server farm and Winamp on a client at your own house?
[17:08] <millevat> is there anyone that can help me?
[17:08] <levander> millevat: Don't ask to ask, just ask.
[17:09] <bzrk> Lartza_: check out lufs
[17:09] <lyhana8> hi, why the heck does my touchpad doesn't work anymore on jaunty. It's was working fine on hardy :S
[17:09] <nmvictor> millevat: what the prob?just say and someones gonna help
[17:09] <alexanderXubuntu> Anyone knows how to install a new theme ? I am using Xubuntu 9.0.1... Its a .tar.gz file.
[17:09] <g3orges> levander taht would be my last resort ... then i would ahve to keep a computer here on 24/7 :/ which is not a very good idea , but wotn ahve any other choice at taht point ... tahnks for everything man
[17:09] <Lartza_> levander: He already asked and now asked someone would answer to his question
[17:09] <millevat> i want to install linux on an external hdd drive but gag doesn't read external usb drives. how i can make it read external hdd?
[17:09] <levander> millevat: What is gag?
[17:09] <|SonGoku|> i dont now
[17:09] <millevat> graphical boot manager
[17:09] <|SonGoku|> know
[17:10] <|SonGoku|> HAY ALGUN ARGENTINO?
[17:10] <levander> g3orges: It's possible you can find a pure linux solution maybe, just keep looking.
[17:10] <|SonGoku|> HAY ALGUN ARGENTINO?
[17:10] <|SonGoku|> HAY ALGUN ARGENTINO?
[17:10] <FloodBot2> |SonGoku|: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:11] <levander> millevat: You've tried grub, which is what I think most Ubuntu installs use?  Did they change from grub to gag?
[17:11] <savid> oh nm,  I need to be using gconftool instead
[17:11] <dimitruss> hello are you from spanish
[17:12] <papachungo13> quit
[17:12] <frpaul> nope, Russia
[17:12] <millevat> i want to use gag because i want to install many distributions and grub sometimes makes problems
[17:12] <dimitruss> millevat use grub administrator
[17:13] <frpaul> any Pythion coders present?
[17:13] <GPL> what's the command to Reset Sockets || IN Windows, it was "netsh reset winsock catalog"
[17:13] <levander> millevat: If it doesn't support external hard drives, it doesn't support them.  And, that's like a question about a package that's not common in the Ubuntu world.  Have you tried finding a gag specific support forum?
[17:13] <Guest30347> helo
[17:13] <levander> frpaul: #python
[17:13] <frpaul> right python
[17:13] <levander> frpaul: That's the name of a channel that has a lot of python programmers in it.
[17:13] <frpaul> learning Tkinter, is it worth it?
[17:14] <dimitruss> can you write fstab or munt the file system
[17:14] <millevat> no i haven't been on a gag forum. thanks for the advise... i'll search something there
[17:14] <dimitruss> mount
[17:14] <levander> frpaul: That's a very vague question.
[17:14] <guntbert> GPL: what do mean "reset sockets"?
[17:14] <levander> frpaul: Head to #python and see what those people will tell you.
[17:14] <frpaul> sure. thanks
[17:15] <GPL> guntbert : In windows, when i used to use uTorrent or bittorrent clients, it possibly corrupted windows sockets, so i had to use this command "netsh reset winsock catalog" to reset it, that would repair the sockets, and i can use the internet normally ....
[17:16] <GPL> guntbert :  i switched to ubuntu, about 2 weeks ago, but i am unable to figure out how to reset it :(
[17:16] <lobak> hello
[17:16] <watshisname> Is there a folder where all the emails are kept. I would like to make a backup of all by emails before i reinstall ubuntu.
[17:16] <GPL> guntbert, the problem is that .. if i dont reset it, then i get Read Error/ Write Error / Connection Lost, etc. errors ...
[17:17] <grawity> watshisname: What email client are you using -- Evolution, Thunderbird, other?
[17:17] <guntbert> GPL: I never heard of that under linux - I'd say no need for this - but maybe someone else has a different notion
[17:17] <watshisname> evolution
[17:17] <sipior> GPL: have you actually seen such problems under linux?
[17:17] <GPL> sipior : Yes.
[17:17] <sipior> GPL: perhaps you could post error messages for us to look at
[17:17] <grawity> watshisname: Evolution has an "Export" option somewhere. If it does not -- backup ~/.evolution/
[17:18] <g3orges> Anyone knows a songrequester for shoutcast for ubuntu ?
[17:18] <pikacode> just added a nice video card and second monitor to my pc, both come up just fine, but the panels are on the left monitor when i'd like them on the right monitor. easy way to change?
[17:18] <GPL> guntbert : after i use Bittorrent Client aka Transmission .. i cant use IM protocols or IRC ... :( lag goes high, and i get Connection Lost error on IRC, when using Pidgin, i get Writing Errors all the time :(
[17:18] <azlon> can i format a RAID-1 as NTFS so my other windows machines can access it?
[17:18] <watshisname> right thanks grawity.  i will do that but i still wonder if there is a folder somewhere ...that all the emails are kept in
[17:19] <grawity> watshisname: There is, and I just said where.
[17:19] <the_archit3ct> hi (:
[17:19] <guntbert> GPL: sorry, no help from me there - I *never* saw such behaviour, sipior asked for error messages
[17:20] <nmvictor> i updated cairo-dock and now the newest version is packed with some OPenGL stull that are not working well on my laptop.Any idea how i would completly eliminate the OpenGL stuff?It has  option to start cairodock without OpenGL stuff but that doesnt help much,Its like OPenGL has spread its claws all over cairo-dock,any ideas?
[17:20] <sipior> GPL: is it only an issue when the bittorrent client is running?
[17:20] <watshisname> just looked for export in evolution ..but can only find import??
[17:20] <GPL> sipior : after Bittorrent Client runs, it corrupts the sockets, so  i 've to reset it somehow, after it all the things go fine ..
[17:21] <sipior> GPL: you keep saying "corrupts the sockets", but i have no idea what you mean by that, or indeed how you verified that this in fact the issue.
[17:21] <sipior> GPL: what steps have you taken to isolate the problem?
[17:21] <GPL> sipior : windowsxp.mvps.org/winsock.htm <- have a look here, maybe you get the idea
[17:22] <GPL> sipior : Under Windows, i used to do that, and everything went fine...
[17:22] <sipior> GPL: we're talking about linux here, yes?
[17:23] <GPL> sipior : yes , but you can figure it out :) probably.
[17:23] <GPL> I am sure, it's related with corruption of sockets settings.
[17:24] <sipior> GPL: if you try "ifconfig" for your network interface, does it report a large number of TX or RX errors?
[17:24] <GPL> sipior, let me do so
[17:24] <boss_mc> watshisname: if the email server is using smtp to send the mails, there's likely to still be copies of the emails on the server
[17:24] <sipior> GPL: (collisions, dropped packets...)
[17:24] <grawity> watshisname: ~/.evolution/
[17:25] <lobak> im trying to backup my Desktop dir with rsync into my thumbdrive..when i use command rsync -av /home/me/Desktop /media/thumbdrive/backup ..it will copy the Desktop dir into the backup dir.. how can make only the content in Desktop to be copy into the backup dir?
[17:25] <GPL> sipior : output of ifconfig -> http://pastebin.com/m1afca9b6
[17:25] <boss_mc> lobak: just a guess but  rsync -av /home/me/Desktop/* /media/thumbdrive/backup?
[17:26] <sipior> GPL: can you also paste a copy of netstat -antup when the network is behaving poorly?
[17:26] <watshisname> i'm a bit new to this ...but why doesnt it just file the emails away in a local folder like all the other programmes seem to do ...ie. xchat stores in home folder(hidden)
[17:27] <nmvictor> lobak: maybe rsync -av /home/You/Dekstop/*. /back/up/directory
[17:28] <lobak> aha
[17:28] <lobak> got it
[17:28] <aesthesia> Hi, I'm trying to set my preseed install file to set the hostname of the machine to the hostname provided by the DHCP server, but seem to be unable to get the syntax for the stanza right. does anyone know the correct syntax for it?
[17:28] <aesthesia> thanks
[17:28] <lobak> thanks boss_mc, nmvictor
[17:29] <GPL> sipior, http://pastebin.com/m159b7d6b <- output of netstat -antup
[17:29] <nmvictor> lobak: no problem dude, anytime
[17:29] <leila> hbekel, http://www.doctort.org/adam/nerd-notes/x11-fake-keypress-event.html could be interesting as well
[17:30] <guntbert> watshisname: look in .evolution/mail/local - I guess you will find mail files there
[17:30] <sipior> GPL: try shutting down your irc daemon, et alia, and see if one of these is the culprit.
[17:31] <GPL> sipior : i already tried that ...
[17:31] <grawity> watshisname: I TOLD YOU TWICE, it stores emails in ~/.evolution/ folder.
[17:31] <sipior> GPL: what is the *precise* behaviour you see when your network is erratic?
[17:32] <quantolf> anyone familiar with rtorrent that can help me?
[17:32] <azlon> how can i format a drive to NTFS? mkefs only does ext2/3 doesnt it?
[17:32] <grawity> azlon: mkfs.ntfs :) It's in the ntfsprogs package.
[17:32] <sipior> GPL: also, any interesting log entries that coincide with the time of the issue?
[17:32] <jyncka> I'm trying to boot hardy and I keep getting a busybox error, what can I do about this?
[17:33]  * veiz is away: Been a while
[17:33] <quantolf> also...when i'm compiling a program and i do ./configure, make, make install in my ~/ folder is that where the file is installed?
[17:33]  * veiz is back (gone 00:00:02)
[17:33] <azlon> grawity, thanks!
[17:33] <quantolf> or do i need to manually move it to the location that it shoudl be?
[17:33] <grawity> azlon: also, you might want to try 'gparted'
[17:34] <nmvictor> quantolf: no, thats not where its installed
[17:34] <sipior> quantolf: most autotools installs default to /usr/local, but that can easily be modified
[17:34] <boss_mc> quantolf: it's installed as the makefile defines, if it's an executable, it's likely in /usr/bin/ or /bin or /usr/local/bin
[17:34] <grawity> veiz: Please turn off the away messages. We do not care how long does it take for you to pee.
[17:34] <veiz>  
[17:35] <ggcc> hey guys i need some help with setting up Dual Screen on my Ubuntu Desktop
[17:35] <azlon> "sudo mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf" gives me "Permission denied"... why would that be?
[17:36] <ggcc> this is the steps im taking http://pastie.org/589982
[17:36] <boss_mc> ggcc: what graphics card?
[17:36] <ggcc> but its not even letting me edit the xorg files
[17:36] <happosade> Will this wlan-card work well http://www.verkkokauppa.com/popups/prodinfo.php?id=13782
[17:36] <veiz> grawity, sorry for tthat~ got it now~
[17:37] <GPL> sipior : i cant get into any of IM Protocols using Pidgin, i cant use IRC, it says Connection Lost at my end, and Connection reset by Peer, it's due to corrupted Sockets TCP/Ip Stacks, High network traffic etc. || I can Use HTTP thow, without any change .. in mIRC , i get 10053 error , when using other softwares, it just tries to reconnect me every time .. .. i 've watched .. over time, and it only happens after i use some bittorrent client like
[17:37] <GPL>  Vuze, utorrent, in Windows, and now it happened after i used Transmission
[17:37] <jordanwb> I'm having a problem with a Emachine computer to boot. It gets to the boot screen then the screen goes black. The machine does not respond to the SysReq sequence and required a hard reboot. Starting the PC using Recovery mode and selecting xfix solves the problem, but only temporary
[17:37] <ggcc> boss_mc: its an ATI gfx card
[17:37] <jordanwb> not boot screen, the splash loader
[17:37] <hellhound> i am having trouble with Ubuntu 9.04 automounting my Samba Server.  When I reboot it does not mount with my other devices, but it will mount when I run sudo mount -a.  I have it mount through fstab with: //THE_BORG/borgfiles   /media/BORGQUEEN   cifs   credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[17:37] <boss_mc> GPL are you behind a router?
[17:37] <GPL> boss_mc , yes
[17:37] <asfasf> s
[17:38] <boss_mc> GPL: my router sometimes seizes up after a lot of usage (i,e, heavy downloading)
[17:38] <GPL> boss_mc, i am 100% sure, it's not because of router .
[17:38] <boss_mc> GPL: have you tried power-cycling the router?
[17:38] <jordanwb> hellhound: try adding "auto" to the end of the mount opetions
[17:39] <GPL> boss_mc, No Need. .. When in windows, this problem occurred, i just used "netsh reset winsock catalog" command, and restart my computer, the problem vanishes like MAGIC ...
[17:39] <hellhound> jordanwb, thank you.  should I put that after the " 0 0"??
[17:39] <ggcc> this is the error im getting :  root@ggcc-hq:/etc/X11# gedit xorg.conf
[17:39] <ggcc> (gedit:4643): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[17:39] <ggcc> root@ggcc-hq:/etc/X11#
[17:39] <grawity> GPL: netsh winsock reset, actually -- but Linux does not have anything evenremotely similar.
[17:40] <grawity> ggcc: Are you in the console now? Try using nano instead
[17:40] <Thesolonius> test message
[17:40] <jordanwb> hellbound: no after the "dir_mode=0777" bit, like so: "dir_mode=0777,auto"
[17:40] <Brian__> i made some changes to conky and i dont want to restart my computer everytime i make a change, isnt there a way to restart the desktop without rebooting
[17:40] <GPL> grawity : that command is for windows.
[17:40] <boss_mc> GPL: because it restarts all the connections (and in the process restarts the connections in the router)
[17:40] <ggcc> grawity: dont know how to do that
[17:41] <grawity> GPL: I know, used it a few times.
[17:41] <grawity> ggcc: Just replace 'gedit' with 'nano'
[17:41] <ggcc> grawity: ahhh ok one sec leme give it a try :)
[17:41] <hellhound> jordanwb, thank you!
[17:41] <jordanwb> hellbound: your welcome
[17:41] <GPL> boss_mc, can you point me to some documentation, that talks about TCP/Ip Stack , its settings ?
[17:42] <rich__> does anyone know if a copied partition from a usb drive is compatable with a sata drive?
[17:42] <boss_mc> GPL: no, but I'm sure my friend google can...
[17:42] <linuxninja> GPL: TCP/IP Stack?
[17:42] <jordanwb> rich__: yes because all block devices (flash drives, sata drives) use the msdos partition table
[17:43] <GPL> linux : yeah i want to reset the Stack entries :(
[17:43] <GPL> linuxninja*
[17:43] <rich__> Do you know what would cause windows vista to not boot after I copied using gparted and reloaded grub
[17:43] <linuxninja> GPL: Reset? Are you talking about your IP Address etc...?
[17:43] <jordanwb> rich__: so you installed grub?
[17:43] <grawity> jordanwb: Some use GPT now.
[17:43] <rich__> yes
[17:43] <GPL> linuxninja, No.
[17:44] <Positivity> rich__: You might have re-numbered partitions? That causes the Windows boot loader to sometimes stop working.
[17:44] <jordanwb> rich__: You would need to add an entry to the /boot/grub/menu.lst file for Vista
[17:44] <Pirate_Hunter> jus got hardy on vbox working with guest addition not bad
[17:44] <linuxninja> GPL: What in the TCP/IP stack are you talking about then...
[17:44] <jordanwb> grawity: not all computers support it. I tried
[17:44] <dayo> how do i unset this:  gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager awesome
[17:44] <Positivity> rich__: Or you might have the Windows entry missing for the boot loader, as jordanwb suggests
[17:44] <rich__> If I pasted it would you be able to tell?
[17:45] <The_Jag> Little help here: how to get rid of old kernels? even the headers too
[17:45] <GPL> linuxninja, http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/fix-winsock-lsp-issues-and-reset-tcpip-stack-to-repair-internet-connectivity/ <- i want Ubuntu Version of this Article.
[17:45] <grawity> dayo: Do the same, but replace 'awesome' with 'metacity'
[17:45] <Positivity> rich__: Sure! But I think you ought to paste the contents of the file to pastie.org or a similar site and send us the URL
[17:45] <dayo> grawity: ok
[17:46] <jordanwb> grawity: I'll try GPT on a newer machine
[17:46] <Positivity> That helps keep it out of the way of people in the channel who are doing other stuff. Pasting source code or config files directly into an IRC channel annoys some people for precisely that reason.
[17:46] <rich__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256435/plain/
[17:46] <hellhound> jordanwb, unfortunately that did not work :(
[17:47] <jordanwb> hellbound: That's odd.
[17:47] <grawity> jordanwb: Not all machines support _booting_ from GPT (I think only EFI ones do), but I know both Windows (XP) and Linux support using GPT on secondary disks.
[17:47] <linuxninja> GPL: I'm not sure we have that issue in Ubuntu
[17:47] <rich__> I removed the maps because that has worked in the past
[17:47] <rich__> for windows
[17:48] <jordanwb> rich__: Where is vista located right now?
[17:48] <ggcc> hey guys how do i save changes i made in nano
[17:48] <rich__> let me check
[17:48] <jordanwb> Ctrl+X
[17:48] <ggcc> thanks
[17:48] <GPL> linuxninja, there must be some interface in Linux/Ubuntu, which deals with the TCP/IP stack .. and LSP ?
[17:48] <Positivity> rich__: You have 3 entries for Vista :-(
[17:48] <boss_mc> GPL: does <<sudo ifconfig eth0 down && sudo ifconfig eth0>> up help?
[17:48] <grawity> GPL: I don't think Linux has "LSP"...
[17:48] <jordanwb> ggcc: If you want to save without exiting, use Ctrl+O
[17:48] <rich__> sda1
[17:48] <hellhound> ah ... hah should have tested fstab before rebooting.. now when i type sudo mount -a it says that the line is bad
[17:48] <rich__> I see thats why I have three boot options
[17:48] <ggcc> thanks :)
[17:49] <linuxninja> GPL: That's assuming something is listening to the Internet connection
[17:49] <GPL> boss_mc, let me try that ...
[17:49] <boss_mc> GPL: that should just restart the connection
[17:49] <jordanwb> rich__: If Vista is on /dev/sda1 you don't need the map commands
[17:49] <Positivity> ggcc: Why don't you use pico? It's simple to use.
[17:49] <boss_mc> GPL: that's eth0 up at the end not just eth0
[17:49] <grawity> Positivity: Because he uses nano.
[17:49] <jordanwb> +1
[17:50] <SpComb> GPL: linux doesn't have anything like Window's LSP:s (thank god)
[17:50] <grawity> Positivity: pico is not included with any Linux distro anymore -- now it's the open-source version, nano, which is mostly equivalent in its interface.
[17:50] <hellhound> jordan, h ... hah should have tested fstab before rebooting.. now when i type sudo mount -a it says that the line is bad
[17:50] <Positivity> grawity: Isn't pico open-source?
[17:50] <SpComb> GPL: if bittorrent use is causing you connectivity issues, then either your home router/nat box sucks or your ISP's throttling you
[17:50] <jordanwb> hellbound: can you post your fstab file to pastebin
[17:51] <grawity> Positivity: The source of pico and pine is public, yes, but AFAIK, there are some restrictions.
[17:51] <Positivity> grawity: When I SSH into my Linux box, I find that vi goes crazy when I try to use the cursors on the keyboard, but pico works fine
[17:51] <Positivity> grawity: I wonder if pico supports syntax highlighting
[17:51] <grawity> Positivity: And because of those restrictions, there is now 'alpine' (written by the same guys, I think), and 'nano' (written by ...no idea who)
[17:51] <gartral> Positivity: what about vim?
[17:51] <grawity> Positivity: I don't know about pico, but nano does have simple highligting.
[17:52] <jordanwb> Let's not get into an argument about text editors
[17:52] <Positivity> grawity: I guess I'll try running nano then
[17:52] <shahzad> hi everybody: how could i extract .sis files in ubuntu 9
[17:52] <grawity> Positivity: Yes, what gartral said - you should try vim. The original vi actually did not support arrows - only hjkl.
[17:52] <grawity> jordanwb: This is not an argument. (Yet...)
[17:52] <Positivity> jordanwb: Just discussing text editors. I've never used nano and would like to know why ppl use it.
[17:52] <jordanwb> grawity: my point: yet
[17:52] <linuxninja> GPL: Every network operating system has a TCP/ip stack
[17:52] <jordanwb> Positivity: I know
[17:53] <linuxninja> GPL: Doesn't mean they have an LSP issue
[17:53] <ronan> Hi
[17:53] <ronan> Hi
[17:53] <Positivity> gartral: I use Ubuntu 9.04 and simply type "vi". Is that linked/alias-ed to "vim" or other editor?
[17:53] <grawity> linuxninja: GPL was offline
[17:53] <akis333> is there a problem with ati mobility HD 2600 and ubuntus desktop cube?
[17:53] <rich__> how do I remove the two entries
[17:53] <happosade> Will this wlan-card work well http://www.verkkokauppa.com/popups/prodinfo.php?id=13782
[17:53] <akis333> cause i can make it to work properly
[17:53] <grawity> Positivity: Today, 'vi' usually runs vim in compatibility mode.
[17:53] <rich__> I am not familiar with editing grub
[17:53] <linuxninja> grawity: ya, just saw that. Thanks
[17:53] <jordanwb> rich__, edit the file as root and delete the lines
[17:53] <ronan> All of the sudden ubuntu refuses to find my wireless network
[17:53] <gartral> (FTR) I like Vim, I like Nano, I like gmacs, they all have strength and uses... (end line) >.>
[17:54] <grawity> Positivity: And in that mode, it acts just like the original vi. No arrow cursors.
[17:54] <rich__> which ones?
[17:54] <gartral> Positivity: vi != vim, they are seperate editors
[17:54] <ronan> It doesn't show up at all, but my neibougrs network shows up
[17:54] <Positivity> grawity: Oh. I guess typing "vim" disables the compatibility mode then
[17:54] <lyhana8> hi, I just install kubuntu 9.04 few days ago and my touchpad doesn't work anymore (worked on hardy), cat /dev/input/mouse* give nothing
[17:54] <jordanwb> rich__: the second and thrid vista set
[17:54] <hellhound> jordanwb: here is my full fstab: http://pastebin.com/ma8412d
[17:54] <GPL> Spcomb : Running a Test : to figure that out.
[17:54] <ronan> It's a wpa2 network
[17:54] <grawity> Positivity: I guess so. If it does not, you could add "set nocompatible" to your ~/.vimrc
[17:54] <rich__> cool thanks
[17:55] <Positivity> gartral: Doesn't "vi" point to "vim" nowadays, except in compatibility mode? Or do "vi" and "vim" point to totally different executables altogether?
[17:55] <grawity> Positivity: But I don't think Ubuntu even _has_ vim... you may need to install it separately.
[17:55] <shahzad> hi everybody: how could i extract .sis files in ubuntu jaunty??
[17:55] <jordanwb> hellhound: you want it to be "dir_mode=0777,auto", with the comma before auto, and with no space
[17:55] <Positivity> grawity: Thanks, I'll make a note of that.
[17:55] <LavaEagle> Positivity: You are correct.
[17:55] <gartral> Positivity: on my box, they are different editors
[17:55] <The_Jag> anyone?
[17:55] <grawity> gartral: With different file sizes?
[17:55] <Ivoz> anyone know why all the ubuntu releases are .04 or .10?
[17:55] <LavaEagle> The_Jag: ?
[17:56] <MaGicMaX> hey guys, i have just formatted a 2nd HDD as ext3 and created a directory, then mounted it. I noticed i need root priveleges to access it (read/write). As only media will be on this drive i would like to remove root priveleges so i can access the drive freely (and my programs can access it). Is that possible?
[17:56] <ronan> Apirl - 4th month
[17:56] <Positivity> grawity: Oh. I guess I ought to check my package manager to make sure.
[17:56] <grawity> Ivoz: That is the release month - 9.04, for example, was released on 2009-04
[17:56] <odder> Ivoz: count
[17:56] <jordanwb> LavaEagle: Jag wants to get rid of old kernels
[17:56] <boss_mc> Ivoz: 9.04 = 09/04 = sept 2009
[17:56] <grawity> Ivoz: And they are released every 6 months o so.
[17:56] <odder> Ivoz: every half a year
[17:56] <ronan> October - 10th month
[17:56] <Pricey> !Name | Ivoz
[17:56] <LavaEagle> Oh ok, not my area
[17:56] <ronan> Semptemer taht is
[17:56] <The_Jag> @LavaEagle: anyone know how to get rid of older kernels and headers ?
[17:56] <boss_mc> Ivoz: ecxept in reverse.... 04/09 = April 2009
[17:56] <grawity> The_Jag: Simply remove them using apt-get or aptitude or synaptic
[17:56] <grawity> boss_mc: What kind of damned date format is that? o.o
[17:57] <Ivoz> oh ok, that makes much more sense than cryptic alignment of versions numbers hehe thanks :)
[17:57] <coreyman> how come I don't have kdesu after installing kdm?
[17:57] <Positivity> GTG... have a good day, everyone!
[17:57] <ronan> Anyone?
[17:57] <boss_mc> grawity: yeah, i went slightly insane there :-) fixed after....
[17:57] <The_Jag> @grawity: Do they disappear from grub too?
[17:57] <MaGicMaX> hey guys, i have just formatted a 2nd HDD as ext3 and created a directory, then mounted it. I noticed i need root priveleges to access it (read/write). As only media will be on this drive i would like to remove root priveleges so i can access the drive freely (and my programs can access it). Is that possible?
[17:57] <shahzad> anbody who could help plz: how could i extract .sis files in ubuntu 9
[17:57] <ronan> Ubuntu won't find my network. Other networks work, and windows finds it.
[17:58] <grawity> boss_mc: I meant 04/09
[17:58] <Ivoz> MagicMax, just set the Other privledges to read and write
[17:58] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: Yes and no, you don't need root privedges under certain circumstances.
[17:58] <boss_mc> grawity: 04/09? as in mm/yy?
[17:58] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: If the drive is USB, then no
[17:58] <linuxninja> ronan: What do you mean ubuntu won't find your network?
[17:58] <boss_mc> grawity: it's european standard dd/mm/yy without the dd
[17:58] <shahzad> ????
[17:58] <grawity> boss_mc: As a programmer, I find YYYY-MM-DD the only sane order. (YYYY/MM/DD and such are acceptable.)
[17:58] <MaGicMaX> the drive is SATA2, interior HDD
[17:58] <grawity> boss_mc: And I do live in Europe, by the way. My country uses YYYY-MM-DD.
[17:58] <rich__> no dice
[17:59] <aesthesia> Hi, I'm trying to set my preseed install file to set the hostname of the machine to the hostname provided by the DHCP server, but seem to be unable to get the syntax for the stanza right. does anyone know the correct syntax for it? I'm prompted to enter the hostname, but its always correct, i'm just trying to make it so that it accepts the hostname without me having to confirm it.
[17:59] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: If you want to be able to mount the drive by a non-root you need to add a line to your /etc/fstab file as root
[17:59] <ronan> Linuxninja doesn't show up in the networkmanager or with iwlist
[17:59] <rich__> it just got rid of the other unbootable options :(
[17:59] <MaGicMaX> I know i can use the command to open Nautilus with root to write to the drive but im using programs that read/write to that drive so...
[17:59] <boss_mc> grawity: for programming I would use yyyy/mm/dd (for date comparison ease) but in everyday life I use dd/mm/yyyy (in the UK, maybe it's not pan-european)
[18:00] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: So you can mount the drive but you aren't allowed to write to it, is that correct?
[18:00] <linuxninja> ronan: Is this a laptop? If it is make sure the wireless card is turned on. Laptops have an on off switch for the wireless card
[18:00] <shahzad> hi everybody: how could i extract .sis files in ubuntu 9
[18:00] <MaGicMaX> yes
[18:00] <SpComb> MaGicMaX: sudo chown <your user>:<your group> /path/to/mnt
[18:00] <Ivoz> grawity: do you have yyyy-dd-mm?
[18:00] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: Okay, so what you want to do is "sudo chmod 0777 /path/to/mount/point"
[18:00] <Ivoz> grawity: *hate
[18:00] <SpComb> you don't need a chmod if you just chown it to your user
[18:00] <boss_mc> Ivoz: I find that really confusing
[18:01] <jordanwb> SpComb: True
[18:01] <orochi> jordanwb: That would also be horribly insecure
[18:01] <grawity> Ivoz: I haven't seen that order used anywhere... but mm/dd/yy is used often, and I hate that.
[18:01] <Ivoz> yeah, frustrating
[18:01] <krg_> i experienced an error in the automatic ubuntu kernel upgrade. Anyone else had problems with it?
[18:01] <ronan> linuxninja: Its a desktop and wireless is enabled as I can find other networks that is not mine.
[18:01] <Ivoz> Actually
[18:01] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: "sudo chown username /path/to/mount/point"
[18:01] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: hmm what about spcomb's command there?
[18:01] <shahzad> nobody could help: on how could i extract .sis files in buntu
[18:02] <GPL> SpComb: I did a test, ISP isnt throttling my Bittorrent downloads, but yes, Connection Issues happen only after it.
[18:02] <gartral> ronan: sure your router isnt set up to hide its ssid?
[18:02] <Ivoz> anyone have any idea why ubuntu would go crazy and spit errors upon resuming from suspend when I re-open my HP laptop?
[18:02] <SpComb> GPL: are you using a router/NAT device?
[18:02] <linuxninja> ronan: Hmm... You could just add it in
[18:02] <shahzad> ???????
[18:02] <linuxninja> ronan: You could also change the channel your access point is on
[18:02] <gintasdx> Got GCC instaled? PM me
[18:02] <ronan> gartral: Yes other devices finds it ok.
[18:02] <SpComb> shahzad: .sis? s60 installers?
[18:02] <GPL> SpComb, i am using Beetel 220 BXI Modem
[18:02] <grawity> Ivoz: Are you using any prorietary drivers? (Many of them break suspend/hibernate.)
[18:02] <krg_> anyone experienced errors with kernel upgrade from .14 to .15 ?
[18:03] <ronan> Linuxninja how?
[18:03] <linuxninja> ronan: by default they are on channel 6. move it to 11 or 1
[18:03] <Ivoz> grawity: the nvidia ones?
[18:03] <cesar_bo> Hello, anyone knows how to launch an application with an especific metacity theme, averriding the desktop default?
[18:03] <SpComb> GPL: well... does rebooting it resolve your connection issues?
[18:03] <ronan> linuxninja: How would I do that
[18:03] <ronan> ?
[18:03] <grawity> Ivoz: Yeah. (I am stuck with v96...though I just switched to open-source ones)
[18:03] <linuxninja> ronan: You can change the channel on the access point
[18:03] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: ok trying brb
[18:04] <grawity> cesar_bo: It isn't possible - you can only change themes globally.
[18:04] <GPL> Spcomb : okay, let me try it ..
[18:04] <Ivoz> grawity: so its the nvidia drivers killing it? Do the open source ones work?
[18:04] <cesar_bo> grawity, I am sure there is a workaround
[18:04] <grawity> cesar_bo: What is your actual problem?
[18:04] <mandy> hallo
[18:04] <TheChuckster> hi. i am trying to get my xbox360 controller working in linux
[18:04] <TheChuckster> it shows up in lsusb
[18:04] <TheChuckster> but not in xinput list
[18:05] <TheChuckster> it is currently not working
[18:05] <grawity> Ivoz: I heard the newer ones fixed the suspend problem, but they don't support this piece of turd I'm typing on, so can't say...
[18:05] <TheChuckster> do you guys have any suggestions?
[18:05] <ronan> linuxninja: Still not sure how I would go on doing that..
[18:05] <TheChuckster> i thought there was a driver built into the kernel
[18:05] <TheChuckster> it worked with an older version of ubuntu
[18:05] <TheChuckster> but i have long since upgraded
[18:05] <|lilo|> how do i do  to get a spanish ubunttu irc
[18:05] <TheChuckster> and now it isn't working anymore
[18:05] <cesar_bo> grawity, test several metacity themes that I made, without changing the global desktop themes
[18:05] <gartral> TheChuckster: jscalibrator
[18:05] <boss_mc> !es | |lilo|
[18:05] <TheChuckster> hablo espanol mas o menus... que es tu problema?
[18:05] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: hmm, says no such file or directory, "/media/sdb1" thats the mount point i put in
[18:05] <Ivoz> grawity: I have 180.44.. I think thats the ubuntu-packaged ones.. newer than that?
[18:06] <grawity> cesar_bo: Then just change the Metacity theme, not the rest.
[18:06] <linuxninja> ronan: You have to log into the access point and look at the configs
[18:06] <lanzelloth> hey all
[18:06] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: so you ran "sudo chown username /media/sdb1" without quotes?
[18:06] <NBN> UBUNTU  after updating the screen no longer works, but rather the entry of a command line only
[18:06] <cesar_bo> grawity, my issue is to have tree or four windows with diferent metacity themes for testing
[18:06] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: ill try again
[18:07] <|lilo|> gracias
[18:07] <TheChuckster> de nada
[18:07] <|lilo|> quiero montar un cafe internet
[18:07] <lanzelloth> when the update manager tried to merge my old menu.lst with 2.6.28-15 it crashed. now i'm not sure how to get it into my menu.lst
[18:07] <|lilo|> y quiero montarlo con ubuntu
[18:07] <TheChuckster> con ubuntu?
[18:07] <TheChuckster> ah
[18:07] <|lilo|> el problema es el software del ciber
[18:07] <jordanwb> lanzelloth: "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[18:07] <lyhana8> hi, how could I enable my touchpad ?
[18:08] <rich__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256442/plain/
[18:08] <Pici> TheChuckster: Please continue this in #ubuntu-es, #ubuntu is english only.
[18:08] <rich__> is there anything on that that would make me not be able to boot vista?
[18:08] <xangua> !es | |lilo|
[18:08] <TheChuckster> |lilo|, lo siento pero no puedo continuar hablado aqui
[18:08] <|lilo|> ubuntu 9.04
[18:08] <TheChuckster> Pici, sorry
[18:08] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: ok the command went through but it didnt work, still says its owned by root and i cant access it
[18:08] <lanzelloth> jordanwb, will try that
[18:08] <|lilo|> ok
[18:08] <|lilo|> thanks
[18:08] <jordanwb> rich__: That's correct, although I don't know why its not boot, does it give an error message?
[18:08] <cesar_bo> grawity, don't worry I found metacity-theme-viewer
[18:08] <NBN> |lilo|: after updating the screen no longer works, but rather the entry of a command line only
[18:09] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: are you running it as root?
[18:09] <alexanderubuntu> Hey! I forgot the command to open root with full admin permission, anyone know?
[18:09] <|lilo|> whatever i will be asking you...
[18:09] <adasz_> i want use teamspeak but i cant heare nobody and i cant talk why? what must i do that it work?
[18:09] <grawity> alexanderubuntu: Depends on what you mean by 'root'... but you are probably looking for either 'sudo -s' or 'gksu'
[18:10] <xangua> cesar_bo: the best theme is Gnome Colors - http://code.google.com/p/gnome-colors/
[18:10] <alexanderubuntu> I remember it was gksu th____ something.
[18:10] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: u mean the command? yes i preceeded it with sudo and entered my password
[18:10] <jordanwb> xangua: looks cool
[18:10] <jordanwb> MagicMaX: That's odd, is your user the only one in the system besides root?
[18:11] <GuidMorrow> running windows xp SP3
[18:11] <grawity> alexanderubuntu: 'gksu thunar' in Xfce, or 'gksu nautilus' in GNOME.
[18:11] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: yes
[18:11] <grawity> alexanderubuntu: Actually, both work.
[18:11] <GuidMorrow> is there any drivers for ATI TV WONDER VE, or the Logitech Wireless Desktop EX100
[18:11] <GuidMorrow> for Ubuntu
[18:11] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: maybe i got the mount point wrong? im using the one it shows in nautilus
[18:12] <NBN> after updating the screen no longer works, but rather the entry of a command line only
[18:12] <ohz> someone can tell me how i can do from bash for looking about buildessential if are installed or not ?
[18:12] <jordanwb> MagicMaX: Is it saying "File not Found" or "Permission Denied"?
[18:13] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: "you do not have the permissions nessisary.. blah blah"
[18:13] <pulse00> hi all. anyone knows if it's possible to recover deleted files ?
[18:13] <pulse00> by deleted i really mean the rm command
[18:13] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: Permissions nessisary to do what?
[18:13] <grawity> pulse00: No, it isn't.
[18:14] <Al91860> Good evening
[18:14] <pulse00> grawity, thanks, thought so
[18:14] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: listen to a mp3 i copied to it as root (cause it was the only way i could)
[18:14] <Ivoz> ohz: dpkg --get-selections | grep <whateveryou'relookingfor>
[18:14] <ohz> anyone knows how to see if buildessential are installed yet ?
[18:15] <ohz> Thanks Ivoz.
[18:15] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: a few moments ago you quoted a part of the error, could you post the entire message
[18:15] <ohz> Thanks a lot.
[18:15] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: view the contents of..
[18:15] <Ivoz> Stratocaster: you from gotgames.com.au perchance?
[18:15] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: it says that when you try to run "sudo chown ..."?
[18:15] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: in other words, i have no read
[18:16] <NBN> after updating the screen no longer works, but rather the entry of a command line only
[18:16] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: no when i try to listen to an mp3 on the drive
[18:16] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: from nautilus
[18:16] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: As root, run "sudo chmod -R 0755 /media/sdb1"
[18:17] <jordanwb> and try viewing the folder
[18:17] <LavaEagle> Jeeze is there a way to turn off the people coming and going?
[18:17] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: as root? u mean the sudo in there isnt enough?
[18:18] <jordanwb> MaGicMax: my mistake as your user run "sudo chmod ..."
[18:18] <yan> ...
[18:18] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: omg it worked, ok i can read to it now, leme check if i can write
[18:19] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: you won't
[18:19] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: I don't think you will
[18:20] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: oh wow i can write now, but why is the padlock icon still displayed on the folders?
[18:20] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: Because your user does not own those files. If you want to own those files, run "sudo chown -R username  /media/sdb1"
[18:21] <kaffien> anyone here installed the acronis linux agent?
[18:21] <kaffien> on ubuntu  that is
[18:22] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: omg its fixed, thank you very very much
[18:22] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: your welcome, now if I could get my problem fixed.
[18:22] <NegBlaNi> I am sick of those niggers and their antics!
[18:22] <maco> !language | NegBlaNi
[18:23] <velista55> ciao
[18:23] <NegBlaNi> However I am Mexican and the KKK won't accept me.  What do I do?
[18:23] <jordanwb> maco: what does that do?
[18:23] <NegBlaNi> Well there is a solution!
[18:23] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: now is there a way i can rename the drive (the name it shows in nautilus) right now it just shows "500.1GB Media"
[18:23] <jordanwb> NegBlaNi: become an hero
[18:23] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: I do not know.
[18:23] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: i dont think i would be much help, but ill let u know :0
[18:23] <MaGicMaX> :)
[18:23] <vyox> Hello, how can I get my files back from a harddrive that I accidently removed the filesystem from?
[18:24] <maco> jordanwb: it makes ubottu give the "no swearing...family friendly....etc" factoid to the person
[18:24] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: I think you would need to change the file system label but I don't know how to do that
[18:24] <g3orges> Hello , what does this mean ? “sh winetricks comctl32 wininet ie6 allfonts divx”
[18:25] <velista55> !list
[18:25] <vyox> g3orges: that it will execute those scripts
[18:25] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: i dont know if its related, but when i plug in my ipod, it shows the name i named it in windows, but wont let me rename it, however i can in windows. Is there a way to do it?
[18:25] <ean> Hi. I use Openbox. And I have noticed that I get a sound everytime I minimize and klick a button (for ex: thunar). How can I disable that? This I don't have any sound when I use Gnome. :<
[18:25] <jordanwb> g3orges: Not completely sure, but it has to do with installing a program for wine
[18:25] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: I don't know
[18:25] <g3orges> jordanwb vyox true , its to enhance winamp under wine ... but how do i execute it ? i tried it in terminal .. didnt look it was the right place
[18:26] <jordanwb> g3orges: is winetricks installed?
[18:26] <g3orges> jordanwb nope ... working on it now
[18:26] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: i can rename it in Rythmbox and it will show up as that name in the program but it will still show the old name in nautilus
[18:26] <jordanwb> g3orges: try installing it ;-)
[18:26] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: what does it say in Nautilus?
[18:27] <grawity> MaGicMaX: e2label is probably what you need.
[18:27] <|lilo|> good evening to everybody... have a nice night
[18:27] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: "Rigo's ipod" in nautilus, i renamed it in Rythmbox as "Janeth's ipod"
[18:28] <grawity> MaGicMaX: Or, for iPods and other FAT32 devices -- dosfslabel.
[18:28] <g3orges> jordanwb i downlaoded it ... with wget , now ?
[18:28] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: I think you may need to unplug, and plug it back in for changes to take effect
[18:28] <einb> Anyone have a good link on how one would setup a network install source? I'd like to be able to install Ubuntu Desktop and Server via a local source. The links I've found don't detail an "install" source only an APT mirror.
[18:28] <jordanwb> g3orges: I don't know, I've used it only once and that was a while ago
[18:29] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: ya thats the first thing i did... and in rythmbox it recognized the new name but not in nautilus
[18:29] <einb> Netboot/PXE optional. I don't mind booting from the NetBoot mini.iso.
[18:29] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: I don't know, I don't have an iPod
[18:30] <g3orges> jordanwb i retype the command , working like a cahrm :p
[18:30] <alejandrocastano> hi, everybody. It's the first time I connect in to the #ubuntu channel, I hope I'll learn a lot from you. :)
[18:31] <datta> alejandrocastano: of course you will
[18:31] <jordanwb> g3orges: good
[18:31] <datta> i need to know how you can record in line in with audacity pleasee help me
[18:31] <nicklas_> quake live for linux is out :-D
[18:31] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: aww, my next question was how i can get .ogg to play on my ipod, but since u dont have one... :P
[18:32] <MaGicMaX> jordanwb: ive already converted all my mp3s to ogg with Sound Convert what a great little program
[18:32] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I think the only way to rename it is to backup your music, then reformat, and then copy music back.  I gave up on syncing ipod with Ubuntu
[18:32] <jordanwb> rich__: you still there?
[18:32] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: do u know how i could reformat without itunes?
[18:32] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I hear the ipod nano's are easier to set up
[18:33] <Madsy> Is there a reason why bridging network devices does not work with Wifi yet?
[18:33] <spydon> How can I get files back from a partition that my brother accidently removed the filesystem from?
[18:33] <Madsy> Some two year-old forum threads I found said that, which seems to match my experience with bridge-utils.
[18:33] <Madsy> Anyone know of a resolution?
[18:34] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, don't know.  You aren't the only one with this problem though.  There was a forum topic about this problem.  I think there were some things to try, but I didn't try them
[18:34] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: ive checked out http://www.rockbox.org/ tuns out it doesnt support ipod classics, i got the 80GB classic :(
[18:34] <Madsy> As soon as br0 goes up, eth0 (wifi) goes down.
[18:34] <sol93> I changed the Desktop directory to be my home with gconf-edit ("/apps/nautilus/desktop/preferences/desktop is home dir") and back several times, now I can't get it to use ~/Desktop again. Strangely, when re-creating the folder ~/Desktop, it does no longer get the specific icon, but is shown as normal folder. How can I get my ~/Desktop back?
[18:34] <jordanwb> spydon: unless they're in the trash can, you can't
[18:34] <spydon> jordanwb, bullshit
[18:34] <spydon> I have done it on an windows machine
[18:34] <spydon> with file scavenger
[18:35] <jordanwb> spydon: Windows != Linux
[18:35] <orochi> spydon: And Windows is a Linux distribution? :>
[18:35] <Berzerker> of course
[18:35] <spydon> orochi, it means it isn't impossible
[18:35] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I have an Ipod 5th gen 80GB.  I tried out gtkpod, which worked somewhat.  The amount of work, as I see it, for me to get it working is daunting, and I figure not worth the time.
[18:35] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: i could care less for mp3 support or the apple GUI in my ipod, i would just love to format the thing and get someone else on it
[18:35] <niekie> Hrm.
[18:35] <orochi> spydon: As an aside, yelling "bullshit" at someone who is trying to help you is probably not going to help you much
[18:35] <grawity> MaGicMaX: Say, what is your problem anyway?
[18:35] <niekie> Anyone familiar with people.ubuntu.com?
[18:35] <spydon> orochi, sorry, I just really need those files
[18:35] <niekie> I seem to meet all requirements (uploaded SSH key, signed CoC) but can't access it :(
[18:36] <niekie> Ah, never mind.
[18:36] <niekie> Read the FAQ better now :P
[18:36] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I just care about some of the music on my Ipod, otherwise I'd work on getting it reformatted.  Can't back it up effectively without Itunes however
[18:36] <MaGicMaX> grawity: just trying to get ogg  files to play on my ipod, and trying to rename my ipod
[18:36] <niekie> I just need to wait a bit, I guess :)
[18:36] <pLr> Seidos: U can run iTunes through WINE or a Virtual Machine
[18:36] <grawity> MaGicMaX: For renaming, I think you could try dosfslabel (if the iPod is "Windows-formatted")
[18:37] <spydon> orochi, jordanwb, if someone else asks tell them to try r-linux
[18:37] <grawity> MaGicMaX: Also, what generation is your iPod?
[18:37] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: ya i formated my windows partition yesterday, im converted now, theres no going back :P
[18:37] <Seidos> pLr, I have considered using virtual box.
[18:37] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, Ubuntu is the only operating system on this system.  I never attempted configuring a dual boot
[18:37] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: im sure itunes works on in wine? i kinda wanted to stay away from using wine but... i just might
[18:37]  * grawity waves at niekie, and goes to read what the hell is people.ubuntu.com
[18:38] <pLr> Seidos: I used virtualbox for a long time to manage my ipod w/ itunes it worked very well after updating to the latest virtualbox release
[18:38] <jordanwb> spydon: there are more file systems than just ext2 and 3.
[18:38] <sol93> I messed up something, the gconf-edit setting /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop is home dir does no longer have any effect. How can I get the system back to using ~/Desktop instead of ~/. ?
[18:38] <MaGicMaX> grawity: its the ipod Classic 80GB
[18:38] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I'll use virtual box, but not wine
[18:38] <grawity> MaGicMaX: And what generation?
[18:38] <datta> i need to know how you can record in line in with audacity please help me
[18:38] <grawity> sol93: Have you tried logging out and in again? (Or just killing/restarting Nautilus)
[18:38] <TheHate> is this an ubuntu help channel
[18:38] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: got a link to that virtual box, what is it?
[18:38] <grawity> TheHate: Yes, welcome to #ubuntu :)
[18:39] <jordanwb> TheHate: No duh
[18:39] <Terabyte> hey
[18:39] <anxiolytic_> I have a cronjob that doesn't work. what's up with this? I want it to run every 1 minute. 1   *   *   *   *  /usr/bin/wget http://localhost/?PING
[18:39] <Terabyte> can anybody recommend decent stable router software for ubuntu? Preferably one with a GUI....
[18:39] <yan_> hi people)
[18:39] <pLr> Seidos: You'll eventually only use VmWare :p
[18:39] <MaGicMaX> grawity: umm thats the generation isnt it, ipod Classic 80GB?
[18:39] <TheHate> well you've probably heard this 1000 times, my sound will not work
[18:39] <grawity> anxiolytic_: That line runs on every hour first minute
[18:39] <TheHate> :D
[18:39] <Terabyte> I want to be able to shape traffic...
[18:39] <grawity> anxiolytic_: You probably want */1 * * * *
[18:39] <grawity> MaGicMaX: Or just * * * * *, actually.
[18:40] <ubuntunewbie> hi would like to know is there any good application to schedule record internet radio station ?
[18:40] <jordanwb> TheHate: And there's probably 1000 different reasons for your sound not to work
[18:40] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I think you can install it sudo apt-get install virtualbox, otherwise, no, don't have a link off hand.
[18:40] <TheHate> hmmm
[18:40] <sol93> grawity: of course - after setting the Desktop to ~, and deleting ~/Desktop, recreating the ~/Desktop folder results in a special icon. That behavior was so before, but suddenly, the folder does no longer get the desktop icon, and when I log in again, Desktop is still ~/. although the setting is set to what I would like to have again.
[18:40] <dhillon-v10> hi everyone
[18:40] <pLr> Terabyte: Look at pfsense
[18:40] <anxiolytic_> grawity: thanks
[18:40] <TheHate> my computer detects my sound card
[18:40] <TheHate> im running 9.04
[18:40] <jordanwb> Seidoes: you have to download the .deb file from virtualbox.org IIRC
[18:40] <grawity> MaGicMaX: er, ignore that last line.
[18:40] <RanyAlbeg> Hi guys i need help. im trying to run an application my friend built and i get "Could not load UI: Repositor.ui: required gtk+ version 2.16, current version is 2.14" , i tried to install the package libgtk2.0-dev but no success. im new to ubuntu so i dont know how to compile gtk-2.16.0 package from source YET. can you advice me of an easier way to update the gtk+ version untill i'll be familiar with compiling from source package? tha
[18:40] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, if it can play videos it's a 5th gen
[18:40] <MOUD> Hey all
[18:41] <Terabyte> pLr: that's a dist? I was looking for one for ubuntu
[18:41] <jordanwb> The joys of owning an iPod
[18:41] <niekie> Hey, sweet.
[18:41] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: never tried videos but ya it can play them
[18:41] <niekie> If I turn on this blow-dryer the lights flicker in the entire building.
[18:41] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: what does virtual box do exactly?
[18:41] <pLr> Terabyte: it is a dist. for ubuntu ask around.. pfsense is really good though
[18:41] <sol93> grawity: i could afford to loose my home dir contents, if nuking it helps
[18:41] <niekie> I can send morse messages xD
[18:41] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I'm pretty sure you have a 5th gen then
[18:41] <beginner> hi i installed ossd-uuid package using "sudo aptitude install postgresql-contrib" where does it keep the files in that package(i want to know the path to contrib)
[18:42] <MOUD> How can I connect to an ad-hoc via terminal?
[18:42] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: Virtual box will let you run say windows on linux. or linux on windows. or generally another OS on linux
[18:42] <sol93> grawity: but i like to find out, what happened
[18:42] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: all i know is rockbox wont work, ive tried
[18:42] <grawity> sol93: Try first nuking ~/.nautilus/ ...if that doesn't work, rename ~/.gconf or ~/.gnome2
[18:42] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, from what i know about it, it does what wine does.  I have it installed, I just started it up.  I can try tinkering with it
[18:42] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: I'm using it at the moment
[18:42] <sol93> grawity: thanks
[18:42] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, never tried rockbox.  I looked up Linux on the Ipod.  There are some guys working on that.  I think the 5th gen is out though.
[18:42] <pLr> beginner: dpkg -L packagenamehere
[18:42] <abhifx> i need help with xfce
[18:42] <megaimpulse> How do you remove the ubuntu-desktop from a server once installed?
[18:43] <MaGicMaX> Terabyte: hmm i have no windows OS though, so how would that work for me?
[18:43] <pLr> abhifx: !ask
[18:43] <beginner> pLr: ok thanks. i will check it
[18:43] <sol93> grawity: it's so hard to repair stuff, too much to learn :( i hate reinstalling
[18:43] <einb> Anyone have good info/link(s) on how one would create a local install mirror? I'd like to be able to install Desktop and Server from a local HTTP source. The links I've found so far only detail how to create a local APT repo/mirror.
[18:43] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: what is it you're trying to do?
[18:43] <grawity> pLr: it's !ask | abhifx
[18:43] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, but still, installing linux on my ipod would put my music in jeopardy, so I'm not going to do that...not until I can back it up
[18:43] <TheHate> well how can i narrow down the sound problem?? the computer detects my soundcard
[18:43] <TheHate> maybe its just firefox??
[18:43] <pLr> grawity: lol forgot syntax.. i havent been here in a while
[18:43] <pLr> grawity: bot is down?
[18:44] <MaGicMaX> Terabyte: well theres 2 things, i have an unsupported scanner "Canon Lide 90" so i think i need to run a windows driver, plus i need to use itunes to formatt my ipod heh
[18:44] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: ya ive already backed up all my ipod songs using Rythmbox
[18:45] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: in which case you will need a license for a windows operating system which supports the Canon Lide 90. After you have that, you can install Windows on VirtualBox, and what will happen is, when you fire up ubuntu, you doublclick the Virtualbox program, pick the OS you want to run, and in it's own window, like magic, windows will run on linux.
[18:45] <sol93> the file ~/.nautilus/metafiles/file\:%2F%2F%2Fhome%2Fhmw%2FDesktop.xml  shows:  <?xml version="1.0"?> [NewLine] <directory/>  - what does yours show?
[18:45] <mumtazah1> hello, i would like to know, why wireless not detect in my laptop. Before this wireless was able
[18:45] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, rhythmbox worked?  Do you have a guide on how to do this?  I was under the impression rhythmbox didn't work with an ipod.
[18:45] <sol93> the file ~/.nautilus/metafiles/file\:%2F%2F%2Fhome%2Fhmw%2FDesktop.xml  shows:  <?xml version="1.0"?> [NewLine] <directory/>  - what does yours show? grawity
[18:45] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, what ver of rhythmbox are you using?
[18:45] <anxiolytic_> do I need to reload cron after editing my crontab?
[18:45] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: you can then install itunes etc on the virtual windows machine. and go like normal
[18:45] <jordanwb> I'm having a problem with my Creative ZEN, I can copy songs onto it via gphoto2 but it can't find the songs
[18:46] <MaGicMaX> Terabyte: so the virtual OS is on its own partition "magically"?
[18:46] <pLr> Let Apple manage ur Apple hardware and you'll be happy. If u dont, you will bleed and should contribute all bugs you hit.
[18:46] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: no, the VirtualMachine resides in a massive file on your hard drive
[18:47] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: 0.12.0
[18:47] <Seidos> pLr, is there a portable music player (PMP?) that you recommend?
[18:47] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: exactly, so i missed a step, just before that, you create a virtual hard drive (literally a 20gb or however big you want to make it), file that sits on your linux system. for example "MyVirtualDrive.vdi" and it literally contains a virtualbox operating system
[18:47] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: what's more you can take this file anywhere and fire it up on another machine :)
[18:47] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: think of it as a portable OS...
[18:47] <pLr> Seidos: portable in what sense..
[18:48] <megaimpulse> Anyone know how to uninstall a ubuntu-desktop gui from a 9.04 server?
[18:48] <plovs> running jaunty on an hp dv6000, noticed that the processor is running at 2.1ghz all the time, it should slow down to 800mhz if i do nothing , how can  i do this?
[18:48] <MaGicMaX> Terabyte: oh i see, ya that sounds pretty useful... besides the fact i need to buy a windows license :P
[18:48] <sol93> Seidos: i bought a Flashdisk/MP3 player for 20€, it has no special software and just works under any circumstances. Maybe you get lucky and find something similar, too.
[18:48] <pLr> Seidos: Amarok is the best media player because of it plugins IMO
[18:48] <grawity> megaimpulse: Remove X, remove GNOME, remove the programs that came with it (Firefox, OpenOffice, etc) - and then apt-get autoremove
[18:48] <Seidos> pLr, can fit in your pocket
[18:48] <Seidos> pLr, like a walkman
[18:49] <pLr> Seidos: I love the iPod Touch.. i use one all the time
[18:49] <megaimpulse> Thanks
[18:49] <Seidos> sol93, maybe when I get a job.
[18:49] <abhifx> i want to start cairo dock in xfce only, but it starts up on gnome too. any advice?
[18:49] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: well.. there are of course grey ways of obtaining a windows license, certainly if XP is ok, i think xp prices are less than the cost of the starbucks i'm holding....
[18:49] <sol93> Seidos: what i meant, look for a cheap no-brand player
[18:49] <AvonGenesis> Hey guys, If I install an updated different updated version of an ubuntu distro, will my settings be saved?
[18:49] <Terabyte> AvonGenesis: don't count on it
[18:49] <AvonGenesis> Terabyte: Really? :(
[18:49] <sol93> AvonGenesis: let me phrase it this way: some _might_ be kept
[18:49] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: yes Amarok is cool i hear, was planning to try it out right now
[18:50] <Terabyte> AvonGenesis: I'm sure in theory they should be saved, but my experience is, if you touch it, you broke it.
[18:50] <TheHate> any ideas how i can get my sound working?
[18:50] <AvonGenesis> Well, I'm using a netboot remix, its light weight, and now I want to install the full package.
[18:50] <Terabyte> AvonGenesis: so make a backup :)
[18:50] <zagabar1> Is there a tutorial somewhere on how do set up an irc server in ubuntu?
[18:50] <Seidos> sol93, it's good advice, but I need to save my money.  how many gigs is your non brand portable?
[18:50] <MOUD> I was just googling... Does this command work on ubuntu:   sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "WLAN" mode ad-hoc      ?
[18:50] <sol93> Seidos: not large, 2GB i guess, might be 4
[18:50] <pLr> zagabar1: Here it is sudo apt-get install ircd-hybrid
[18:50] <MaGicMaX> Terabyte: i like grey ways, but only if they work lol... my last gray way didnt work due to windows genuine alert or whatever that darn thing is
[18:50] <pLr> :p
[18:51] <AvonGenesis> Alright thanks guys.
[18:51] <Seidos> sol93, after I got rid a lot of the crap on my ipod, that's probably all the space I would need
[18:51] <jordanwb> MaGicMaX: I have a grey way but I'd get in trouble and I need a bit of assistance
[18:51] <Seidos> *of
[18:51] <TheHate> can anyone help me
[18:51] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: ah yes, the genuine issue, of course you don't need to update and activate it if all you're doing is itunes and some scanner. but yes.
[18:51] <sol93> Seidos: was below 20€, btw. It's just, that all the big names use either special methods to copy data to the drive, or they use proprietary formats. I prefer to put real mp3 or even wav files on my player
[18:52] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: are you a student by any chance? if so check out msdnaa
[18:52] <zagabar1> pLr: Yaeh, I tried ircd-hybrid but I coun't manage to make it publicly connectable from the outside.
[18:52] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, did you use a plugin in rhythmbox?
[18:52] <MaGicMaX> Terabyte: just graduated last semester
[18:52] <pLr> zagabar1: meaning you could connect to localhost?
[18:52] <jordanwb> I'm having a problem with my Creative ZEN, I can copy songs onto it via gphoto2 but my PMP can't find the songs
[18:52] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: that's a dam shame, you missed out on windows 7 for free :)
[18:52] <zagabar1> pLr: Yaeh
[18:52] <Biezel> Text hier eingeben...
[18:52] <tyler_d> how do you clear the clipboard from term?
[18:52] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: nothing that didnt come with it by default
[18:53] <Berzerker> it's too bad that the RTM is so much better than the RC
[18:53] <abhifx> i want to start cairo dock in xfce only, but it starts up on gnome too. any advice?
[18:53] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: i just manually selected all my songs and copied them over
[18:53] <Seidos> sol93, that makes sense, I figured that's why the Ipod nano's work better with Ubuntu
[18:53] <grawity> Berzerker: Why is it bad?
[18:53] <Terabyte> MaGicMaX: i'm about to vanish, was that all?
[18:53] <Berzerker> it's not bad, the RTM is just so much better.
[18:54] <Berzerker> faster, more stable, more compatible.
[18:54] <abhifx> i want to start cairo dock in xfce only, but it starts up on gnome too. any advice?
[18:54] <MaGicMaX> Terabyte: ya thanks
[18:54] <pLr> zagabar1: http://tinyurl.com/nluxy8
[18:54] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, it's been awhile since I've tried this.  It's been like 6 months, but I remember trying it, and not being happy with the results.  Didn't seem like it copied properly, but I'll play around with it again
[18:54] <pLr> zagabar1: with server programs you have to allow those connections most times
[18:54] <MaGicMaX> Amarok is good too
[18:55] <zagabar1> pLr: Thanks, I'll try it. =)
[18:55] <jordanwb> abhifx: In gnome try going to System->Preferences->Startup Applications, you may seen cairo dock in there
[18:55] <salil_> muhahahahaaa
[18:55] <RanyAlbeg> Hi guys i need help. im trying to run an application my friend built and i get "Could not load UI: Repositor.ui: required gtk+ version 2.16, current version is 2.14" , i tried to install the package libgtk2.0-dev but no success. im new to ubuntu so i dont know how to compile gtk-2.16.0 package from source YET. can you advice me of an easier way to update the gtk+ version untill i'll be familiar with compiling from source package? tha
[18:55] <abhifx> jordanwb : but then it stops in xfce too
[18:56] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: only problem ive come accross managing my ipod is that i cant seem to copy a playlist created in Rythmbox to the ipod, although i can select the songs and drag them over stil... on the ipod i have to browse by artist and album to find them, instead of it being under playlists
[18:56] <pLr> RanyAlbeg: Find a .deb of gtk+ 2.16
[18:56] <pLr> RanyAlbeg: on google
[18:56] <mogi22> how  do i check if my dvd-r drive is installed on jaunty (putting dvd in does not mount it)
[18:56] <mogi22> mount cmd fails too
[18:56] <LavaEagle1> What is the advantage of changing your kernels?
[18:56] <mogi22> although i dont really know what dev to use
[18:57] <jordanwb> RanyAlbeg: what version of Ubuntu do you have? I have 9.04 and I have 2.16 installed
[18:57] <Katastrophie> hellooo everyone, i have a problem with my audio: it simply will not work. it seems this problem is rather common, after many google searches and tutorials, i have not yet suceeded =[ perhaps someone on here could guide me through narrowing down what the problem is? any info i am happy to provide
[18:57] <AzizLight> hi everybody
[18:57] <salil_> !hi | AzizLight
[18:58] <MOUD> !nm
[18:58] <salil_> LavaEagle1, It makes your system work better at the core.. less chances of bugs.. more fairness to idiot apps etc
[18:58] <D3RGPS31> off the top of the head, anyone know of a script that prints the external IP, every time is changes, to a file/variable (eg, externalip = 72.0.0.0)
[18:58] <jordanwb> LavaEagle1: It can also include new drivers
[18:58] <abhifx> i want to start cairo dock in xfce only, but it starts up on gnome too. any advice?
[18:58] <RanyAlbeg> jordanwb: i have 8.10 intrepid ibex
[18:58] <Pici> !sound | Katastrophie have you seen this
[18:59] <D3RGPS31> Katastrophie: have you tried killing pulseaudio
[18:59] <MaGicMaX> speaking of sound problems, i noticed i need to crank up my volume knob on my speakers way higher than i did in windows to achieve a satisfying level. Is this common? Or should i try an alternate driver or something?
[19:00] <Berzerker> MaGicMaX, try going into alsamixer and trying to muck with the settings
[19:00] <jordanwb> MaGixMax: In the Volume Control window, try turning up PCM
[19:00] <D3RGPS31> MaGicMaX: have you tried setting PCM to max o:
[19:00] <salil_> MaGicMaX, Open volume control on the volume icon and tweak all settings available to the highest
[19:00] <MaGicMaX> Berzerker: ya thats the first thing i tried with no avail
[19:00] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I tried the same thing, I think it did xfer, but at the time I was looking for a itunes replacement.  I'm going to backup the music and look into install Linux on the Ipod, or finding some solution to making this ipod more like a flash drive.  I'm xfering now and getting import errors on some of my songs.  Did you get any errors on your songs?
[19:00] <Qvintvs> could someone who had the ubuntu installer set up grub for them pastebin their grub.conf file to me or something?
[19:00] <AzizLight> how can add a new line to a bash read prompt so that something like that would actually work please? http://azizlight.pastebin.com/d534883f7
[19:00] <salil_> tweak all controls until they start making the "tweaaaaak" sound
[19:00] <jordanwb> Qvintvs: why?
[19:01] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, maybe there's a way to make the ipod 5th gen more like a flash based mp3 player
[19:01] <Katastrophie> lol no
[19:01] <mogi22> my dvd-ram drive didnt install on jaunty, do i need to manually load the drivers?  the cdrom drive installed just fine as did the dvd drive
[19:01] <Katastrophie> i justt just got this computer
[19:01] <Qvintvs> jordanwb: I just want to see what ubuntu sets up by itself
[19:01] <Katastrophie> i have never ever even thought of using linux before
[19:01] <mogi22> and an older dvd-ram was fine
[19:01] <abhifx> i want to start cairo dock in xfce only, but it starts up on gnome too. any advice?

[19:04] <frpaul_> anyone uses fluxbox? wheres the config to map keyboard media-buttons?
[19:05] <pLr> frpaul_: you should use xfce as a lightweight wm
[19:05] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, maybe ipodlinux (http://ipodlinux.sourceforge.net/index.shtml) will work on our ipods
[19:05] <frpaul_> why?
[19:05] <Pici> AzizLight: #bash would a more appropriate place to ask this
[19:05] <pLr> frpaul_: more support, updates in 2009..
[19:05] <pLr> lol
[19:05] <frpaul_> I like fluxbox - looks great

[19:06] <salil_> MaGicMaX, netsplits.. network maintenance..
[19:06] <grawity> MaGicMaX: This is called a netsplit - when two IRC servers lose their connection with each other.
[19:06] <AzizLight> Pici: yeah I also asked the question there but nobody is answering...
[19:06] <cmiller> i think i found something as to why my apt-get update isnt working
[19:06] <MaGicMaX> oh i see
[19:06] <MaGicMaX> im new to IRC
[19:06] <Seidos> frpaul_, I like fluxbox too, but couldn't figure it out when I installed it back in the day.  I should install it again
[19:06] <cmiller> where in ubuntu can you set a static ip other than /etc/network/interfaces?
[19:06] <salil_> this tickles
[19:06] <Katastrophie> MAKE LOVE NOT SPLITS
[19:06] <Seidos> cmiller, ifconfig
[19:06] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: im checking it now, nice find
[19:06] <cmiller> if i do ifconfig, i see eth0 as 192.168.200.177, but it should have a static ip of 192.168.200.29
[19:07] <salil_> !lovesplits | Katastrophie
[19:07] <jordanwb> Katastrophie: lol!
[19:07] <cmiller> eth0 says 192.168.200.177, but etho:0 says 192.168.200.29
[19:07] <Katastrophie> would i get kicked if i pasted something thats like.... 7 or 8 lines??
[19:07] <cmiller> shoudln't these be the same?
[19:07] <Pici> Katastrophie: Please use a pastebin
[19:07] <mogi22> how do u tell what device to use for your dvd?
[19:07] <Katastrophie> good idea
[19:07] <salil_> Katastrophie, Instead of wasting time on asking, you should have used a pastebin :P
[19:07] <mogi22> sorry dvd-ram
[19:07] <jordanwb> mogi22: its usually /dev/sr0
[19:08] <jordanwb> salil_: At least (s)he asked
[19:08] <salil_> he he..
[19:08] <Seidos> cmiller, do you have multiple network devices in your system?
[19:08] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: bookmarked, trying to see if my ipod is compatible
[19:08] <cmiller> yes, 2 nics
[19:08] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, last time I checked, mine isn't
[19:08] <cmiller> but i am only using one of them
[19:08] <Gonzalo> Hi I need help with google earth + compiz and a Intel Integrated Graphics GM965 video card
[19:09] <Seidos> cmiller, how are you statically assigning the ip?
[19:09] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: so i have a 5th generation ipod Classic right? how can i be sure of this?
[19:09] <Katastrophie> http://pastebin.com/m173c3427
[19:09] <mogi22> jordanwb, if mount fails on that dev, is it just not installed or something?
[19:09] <cmiller>  The primary network interface
[19:09] <cmiller> auto eth0:1
[19:09] <cmiller> iface eth0:1 inet static
[19:09] <cmiller>         address 192.168.200.29
[19:09] <Katastrophie> closest thing i could find to audio controller
[19:09] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I think there's a way to tell by the serial number on the back
[19:09] <jordanwb> mogi22: the cd/dvd should automount when you put a disk in
[19:09] <cmiller>  i have multiple sites setup on this box as well. hence the eth0:1
[19:10] <jordanwb> mogi22: are you on a server?
[19:10] <frpaul_> got minimised seamonkey mailer window (cant see it). :) How to get it back. ctrl+2 doesnt help
[19:10] <mogi22> jordanwb, no its a desktop and it didnt automount
[19:10] <Seidos> cmiller, I've never configured a server with multiple nics.  I have a server with a single nic, but I haven't assigned a static ip to it yet
[19:11] <mogi22> jordanwb, so makes me wonder if all is ok.  odd b/c the cd and dvd drive do automount, the dvd-ram doesnt
[19:11] <jordanwb> mogi22: in a terminal, run "dir /etc", look for sr0
[19:11] <cmiller> ok thanks
[19:11] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: i did the serial check thing and found out for sure its a ipod classic but i dunno about the generation
[19:11] <ubuntunewbie> hi would like to know is there any good application to schedule record internet radio station ?
[19:11] <jordanwb> magi22: Oh its a DVD-RAM drive you're using
[19:11] <MOUD> When I run   " nm "  I get the following error:   nm: 'a.out': No such file    How do I fix this?
[19:11] <jordanwb> magi22: RAM disk I mean
[19:12] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, have you tried rhythmbox?  I know it has stations now, not sure about recording
[19:12] <Pici> MOUD: What are you trying to do?
[19:12] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : Really trying now
[19:13] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, how did you check?  I haven't checked, but last time I did, I remember it was a 5th gen.  Is their a link on the ipodlinux site?
[19:13] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: hmm according to the FAQ "The only unsupported iPod version is the mini. The original scroll wheel (gen-1), touch wheel (gen-2) and dock (gen-3) iPods all work fine." he didnt mention 4th or 5th tho lol
[19:13] <mogi22> jordanwb, nope not in there
[19:14] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: ill try to find it again, checked a while ago
[19:14] <mogi22> jordanwb, but cdrom and cdrom1 are not in there either (those are the devices for my cdrom and dvd drives)
[19:14] <jordanwb> mogi22: Right now, if you were to put a regular CD or DVD in, does it automount?
[19:14] <vekpos> hi! is there anyone who got DSL with pppoe configured via the Network Manager? i just can run it with pppoeconf
[19:14] <mogi22> jordanwb, yes the cd and dvd do but only in those drives (i have 3 drives)
[19:14] <mogi22> jordanwb, anything in the dvdram doesnt mount
[19:15] <mogi22> jordanwb, auto or by guessing the mount /dev/? /mnt cmnd
[19:15] <jordanwb> mogi22: I'm confused, you have 3 optical drives, 2 of which work no problem.
[19:15] <mogi22> jordanwb, yes
[19:15] <MOUD> Pici: the "nm" program doesn't work anymore (it runs at startup by default on ubuntu), but it doesn't work anymore and it isn't in the System > Administration/Preferences too (it used to be there). When I tried to run it on terminal I got that error.  I searched the filesystem but found many a.out.h files but not  a.out   . I'm running windows now because I can't get my wireless to connect...
[19:15] <MOUD> ...to my ad-hoc.
[19:15] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : how t oconnect ?
[19:15] <mogi22> jordanwb, but those 2 dont write, i need the dvd-r
[19:15] <jordanwb> mogi22: I'm not sure if Linux supports RAM drives
[19:16] <jordanwb> Does the DVD-R drive automount a standard DVD?
[19:16] <nick_h> if i have write permission on a directory and its parent directory, why would i not be able to chmod the former?:  http://pastie.org/590113
[19:16] <mogi22> jordanwb, nope not even that
[19:16] <Pici> MOUD: nm has nothing to do with wireless, I think you have your executable names confused.
[19:16] <jordanwb> mogi22: I think your drive is fried, or not connected properly
[19:16] <mogi22> jordanwb, also i may be wrong on my terminology dvd-ram.  its just a regular dvd writable drive
[19:16] <vinicius_> can anyone give me any direction about redirecting the mouse scroll event to "pointer after middle click", like on windowze...?
[19:16] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: this might help, cant find the link i used a while back http://www.ipodrefresh.com/identify-your-ipod.html
[19:16] <jordanwb> mogi22: how does your drive connect to the motherboard?
[19:16] <mogi22> jordanwb,  hmmm ok, its new though
[19:17] <mogi22> jordanwb, its a master
[19:17] <jordanwb> mogi22: is there anything connected to slave?
[19:17] <Pici> MOUD: Do you mean NetworkManager? Its not the same as nm
[19:17] <mogi22> jordanwb, hmmm can i check w/o opening it?
[19:17] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, let me try playing a station
[19:17] <mogi22> jordanwb, any cmnds
[19:17] <jordanwb> mogi22: only if you have x-ray vision or a clear case
[19:17] <datta> please can anyone help me with audacity and how to record line in? this is killing me when i try to record with audacity
[19:18] <mogi22> jordanwb, hehe ok hold on
[19:18] <MOUD> Pici: I'm not sure. It's the one that appears next to the clock that shows your wireless connection.
[19:18] <datta> i have also tried ardour but doesn't help either
[19:18] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : ok thanks
[19:18] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: according to that site i have the ipod video 5th gen, its certainly not 6th because theres no 80GB avaiable
[19:18] <mogi22> jordanwb, ok nope
[19:18] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, I just clicked radio, then double clicked a station.  I'm listening to HBR1.com -I.D.M. Tranceponder.  cool!
[19:18] <mogi22> jordanwb, i've got hd master1 w/ cdrom slave1 and dvd-r as master2
[19:19] <datta> i have picked up my alsa mixer for the input and the same type output but still doesn't work
[19:19] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : is it Rhythmbox 0.11.5 ?
[19:19] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, we do have the same one, then.
[19:19] <mogi22> jordanwb, funny thing is i have the same desktop in another room and it loaded an old dvd-r just fine
[19:19] <Pici> MOUD: Have you recently made any changes that would have done this?
[19:19] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, 0.12.0
[19:19] <jordanwb> mogi22: okay, so it may be that you haven't set the jumpers properly on the DVD-r drive
[19:19] <mogi22> jordanwb, ok let me know finangle w/ it.  hold on sec
[19:19] <jordanwb> Don't change the jumpers while its on
[19:20] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: whats urs? mine accordsing to apple matching the serial is ipod classic, but i think they renamed it video, i think there the same
[19:20] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : oh.. so can you record it ?
[19:20] <Seidos> I remember it being a ipod 5th gen 80GB
[19:20] <telmich> where to report success with ubuntu 9.10?
[19:21] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, I'm sure recording it is possible, maybe additional software is required.  do you have 0.12.0 installed?
[19:21] <MOUD> Pici: Yes and no. I didn't change anything, I just installed some programs such arping and some others arpX  type of files
[19:21] <MOUD> all via sudo
[19:21] <stephans_> what is the best multimedia benchmarking tools for linux/windows/mac?
[19:21] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : nope the latest is 11.5 using hardy no upgrade avaliable
[19:21] <datta> please help me with audacity, i need help
[19:22] <stephans_> I am experiencing performance issues on a linux machine with superior HW to my MAC mini that performs welll in video playback.
[19:22] <datacrusher> hi everyone. im having some issues with my wireless connection. im using ubuntu 8.04 64, and got an atheros ar242x device. Iv managed to install it though ndiswrapper, and its windows most actual driver, but i can see the networks (that are without security) but the icon keeps spinning, and just DONT connect. how do i troubleshoot this? i got no error, just no connection.
[19:22] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: do u know what is meant by "USB/audio input recording/" apparently the ipod linux does not support it yet
[19:22] <gNewPower> Hi, I currently run Ubuntu Hardy 8.04LTS.  How can I drop the LTS and upgrade to Ubuntu 9?
[19:22] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, I don't think recording will work with rhythmbox.  It doesn't have a record button.
[19:22] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, no idea.  Never heard of it
[19:23] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, sounds cool though
[19:23] <telmich> gNewPower: run "update-manager"
[19:23] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : been look for it for days
[19:23] <Pici> MOUD: What does dpkg -l network-manager say?
[19:23] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, what have you tried?
[19:24] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: i hope it doesnt mean transfering music via USB lol
[19:24] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: in leymans terms
[19:24] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : download manager
[19:24] <gNewPower> telmich, nope, as my sources are still 8.04LTS.
[19:24] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, yeah, then syncing won't work
[19:24] <MOUD> Pici: I dunno (can I say "dunno" ?) I'm running windows now because I can't connect to my ad-hoc on ubuntu
[19:24] <gNewPower> telmich, I need to drop the LTS part
[19:24] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, synaptic package manager?
[19:24] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : wanted to record music from shoutcast
[19:24] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : i mean which program ?
[19:25] <Pici> MOUD: It sounds like you may have installed something that conflicted with NetworkManager, did you get any alerts that packages would be uninstalled when you installed those programs?
[19:25] <kozak> Hi all!
[19:25] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, I'm not sure.  Maybe audacity would work, or something
[19:25] <Beno> Ciao. Per caso conoscete un'alternativa al software Orbit (windows) per ubuntu?
[19:25] <mogi22> jordanwb, ok its a sata drive!
[19:25] <Seidos> brb, gotta' brush teeth
[19:25] <GreyGhost> !qt
[19:26] <kozak> I new to linux programming, would like to request some reference to writing daemons
[19:26] <danbhfive> gNewPower: Sys > Admin > Software Sources > Release
[19:26] <jordanwb> mogi22: the tray opens when you push the button?
[19:26] <heatmzzr> what is the command to open a tar.bz2 file so it goes where its supposed to
[19:26] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: in the spirit of all things open-source, if your not sure, TRY IT! lol
[19:26] <Flomar> [14083.188030] NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 00000020
[19:26] <Flomar> [14095.189582] NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 00000020
[19:26] <Flomar> [14095.192559] NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 9, Channel 00000000 Instance 00000000 Intr 00100000
[19:26] <Flomar>  anybody seen this errrors in nvidia 180.44 driver?
[19:26] <FloodBot2> Flomar: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:26] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : do you know any window application that can record radio music?
[19:26] <gNewPower> danbhfive, thanks!  I will try that!
[19:26] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: anyway i can always load the original apple OS from itunes
[19:26] <linuxninja> heatmzzr: Tar files go where you tell them to go.
[19:26] <william56> hey, i've installed the nvidia drivers from the restricted repo for my gts 250, and glxinfo is giving me "extension GLX missing" .. anyone got ideas for resolving this?
[19:27] <mogi22> jordanwb, yup has power
[19:27] <kozak> Or caan someone point out the channel I should be asking questions on daemons for linux
[19:27] <MOUD> Pici: no, but after installed one of these programs it run automatically a terminal UI like asking some Yes/No questions, so I went with the default ones
[19:27] <jordanwb> mogi22: If you can, go into the BIOS and see if the computer itself detects the drive
[19:27] <Flomar> william56, lucky guy, nvidia driver is freezing entire x for me
[19:28] <Flomar> hey people anybody is experiencing weird problems with nvidia restricted drivers in jaunty?
[19:28] <heatmzzr> linuxninja: its xv something isnt it, i dl'd flock 2.5.2 to my desktop, how do I install it correctly
[19:28] <mogi22> jordanwb, drive has 3 pins but no jumpers, just ignore?
[19:28] <jordanwb> mogi22: yes, SATA drives do not have jumpers
[19:28] <felixsulla> If "mount" shows volumes mounted, how do I dismount something?
[19:28] <MOUD> Flomar: not that I know of
[19:28] <datta> please can anyone help me with audacity, this chat doesnt help me with audacity at all
[19:28] <linuxninja> heatmzzr: Flock should be a binary.
[19:28] <datta> please can anyone help me with audacity, this chat doesnt help me with audacity at all
[19:29] <linuxninja> heatmzzr: Just leave it in your home directory. tar -xvf filename.tar
[19:29] <william56> felixsulla: umount
[19:29] <Flomar> :(
[19:29] <MOUD> Flomar: which card do you use?
[19:29] <Flomar> MOUD, geforce 7100gs
[19:29] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I have to go, but it would be cool to keep track of each other's progress on the ipod problem.  Maybe I should start a thread on the forum?
[19:29] <jordanwb> mogi22: if the bios does not list the drive, try setting it to auto detect
[19:29] <Flomar> i'm thinking to change my videoboard
[19:30] <Flomar> i can't believe why it`s not working
[19:30] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I usually stay connected in this channel when I'm available though
[19:30] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: i found another app that you might want to try for getting ur songs off the ipod
[19:30] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: gtkpod
[19:30] <felixsulla> william56: gvfs-fuse-daemon on /home/username/.gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=username)
[19:30] <MOUD> Flomar: and which driver version you have installed?
[19:30] <Flomar> MOUD, yesterday i already talked with other ircmates here but none solution worked
[19:30] <felixsulla> william56: If that's the reading from mount, how do I use umount to get rid of it?
[19:30] <masiddiqui> hi, from where can i get dev c++ for linux
[19:30] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I tried gtkpod, it did as good a job as rhythmbox, as far as I could tell.
[19:31] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: oh ok
[19:31] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I know it's the encrypted music now
[19:31] <Flomar> MOUD, well, i tested all three supported drivers and also the default vesa support and all fails, the behaviour is quite the same: X freeze and slows down all pc for minutes or begin to show renderizatinon errors
[19:31] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: ya encryption blows..
[19:31] <william56> i'm not 100%, but umount /home/username/.gvfs maybe?
[19:31] <Flomar> MOUD right now i`m using ENVYNG with the 180.44 driver enabled
[19:31] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I should probably learn more about it.
[19:31] <MOUD> Flomar: have you tried the 173.xx version?
[19:32] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, especially for email
[19:32] <Flomar> MOUD yes, with no sucess... and the 96.43 too
[19:32] <Flomar> MOUd i`ve even installed the non oficial new driver from nvidia, the 185
[19:32] <Flomar> but all versions behave the same
[19:32] <felixsulla> william56:  Thank you!
[19:32] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: check this out http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/software/linux/
[19:32] <xanderdude> what bash command can a apply to a symlink to know the location it's linking to?
[19:32] <william56> np felixsulla
[19:32] <Flomar> X freezes, and even with magic keys i cant go to console for some minutes
[19:33] <MOUD> Flomar: Strange. Are you using a desktop or a laptop?
[19:33] <Flomar> and the machine load grows
[19:33] <Flomar> desktop
[19:33] <xanderdude> a=I
[19:33] <Flomar> i used 8.04 but the problem began with the new SAMSUNG SYNCMASTER 933 monitor
[19:33] <Flomar> no way to detect the correct resolution
[19:33] <Flomar> so i installed in other hd the 9.04 jaunty
[19:33] <Flomar> and my headache began after that
[19:34] <MOUD> Flomar: ok. Do you have any other video card installed too? (Like those built-in video cards that come with some motherboards)
[19:34] <Flomar> MOUD, no, sad
[19:34] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: i know nothing about encryption either
[19:34] <Flomar> MOUD, i have other old graphic card... a jurassic tnt2 32mb =/
[19:35] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: but if anything can be encrypted it can be decrypted, you just have to know how it was encrypted lol
[19:35] <josesito> how can I bind actions to some keys that don't get registered in xev, but do get registered with showkey (they show keycodes but no scan codes)?
[19:35] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, I wonder if GNUPod would work
[19:35] <mogi22> jordanwb, u know that feeling when the simplest solution that you already knew is exactly what u overlooked?  yeah i'm there right about now.  bios didnt have sata1 set to on.
[19:35] <Seidos> MaGicMaX, true, or have enough computing power and/or time
[19:35] <MaGicMaX> Seidos: when i doubt, try it! lol
[19:35] <MOUD> Flomar: that's really strange. Usually that happens when you have more than one video card installed. Wait, I'll see what I can find.
[19:35] <Seidos> I'll have to try it later, I did the backup
[19:35] <Seidos> with rhythmbox
[19:36] <jordanwb> mogi22: we al have those moments
[19:36] <Flomar> MOUD, http://paste.ubuntu.com/256477/ look at this paste i get these NVRM errors, i opened a bug ticket but no response about it till now
[19:36] <MaGicMaX> i think im gonna give that ipodlinux a go
[19:36] <mogi22> jordanwb, it shows as a dvd-ram writer under lshw btw.  but it has 4 logical names, which should i use?  does it even matter
[19:36] <MOUD> Flomar: ok
[19:36] <datta> please can anyone help me with audacity, this chat doesnt help me with audacity at all
[19:36] <datta> please can anyone help me with audacity, this chat doesnt help me with audacity at all
[19:36] <MaGicMaX> just gonna see if i have the ability to install it first lol
[19:37] <darkscript> anybody know how to use NetworkManager from the command prompt
[19:37] <darkscript> i have not had any luck with this
[19:37] <jordanwb> mogi22: It has 4 logical names?
[19:37] <datta> please can anyone help me with audacity, this chat doesnt help me with audacity at all

[19:39] <mogi22> jordanwb, hmm it didnt mount however, said wrong fs type bad superblock etc etc
[19:39] <jordanwb> mogi22: I'm not sure about that
[19:40] <datta> please how do i record it in ubuntu through line it? i tried ardour but doesnt work
[19:40] <MOUD> Flomar: you sure? I had ubuntu 8.10 installed on my desktop with a GeForce 5200 and it worked fine. I'm doing some googling now
[19:40] <mogi22> jordanwb, syslog says grow-buffers out of range block for device sr1
[19:40] <mogi22> jordanwb, wtf its sr1 as well?
[19:40] <jshriver> Greetings
[19:40] <jshriver> how do save the current iptables settings to default?
[19:40] <jordanwb> mogi22: since you have two optical drives, one is sr0 and the other is sr1
[19:40] <tanveeer> how to check if have java installed on ubuntu
[19:41] <Flomar> MOUD, he`s not here, but he had other problems... i guess is the resolution of these monitors... 1360x768
[19:41] <tanveeer> how to check if have java installed on ubuntu?
[19:41] <MOUD> Flomar: one more question... Have you tried running the Nvidia Manager on System > Administration ?
[19:41] <jshriver> if I do a "iptables -I input etc etc" it doesnt keep them after a reboot
[19:41] <mogi22> jordanwb, so is the disc bad too?  since it couldnt mount it still?
[19:41] <datta> please can anyone help me with audacity, this chat doesnt help me with audacity at all
[19:41] <Flomar> MOUD, in 8.0.4 these board worked perfectly with 1280x1024, i changed the version because the resolution that wasn`t supported in no way
[19:41] <MOUD> Flomar: yes, that's the problem. 5200FX doesn't support that resolution
[19:41] <jordanwb> mogi22: it could be only the disk being bad
[19:42] <Flomar> MOUD, :D solved, but 7100GS should
[19:42] <Flomar> MOUD, or not?
[19:42] <MOUD> Flomar: which one is solved, the 5200 or your 7100?
[19:43] <mogi22> jordanwb, its not in my fstab either, so automount magic wont occur will it?
[19:43] <Flomar> 5200 rsrs the resolution is not supported... so my friend had problems because this
[19:43] <MOUD> Flomar: oh ok. Just give me a min
[19:44] <Flomar> MOUD, ok, thanks

[19:44] <jordanwb> mogi22: You may see /dev/scd0 listed there
[19:44] <darkscript> datta try joining #audacity
[19:45] <bastidrazor> !cookie | datta
[19:45] <mogi22> jordanwb, i wonder what  those 3 pins were for if not m/s selection.
[19:45] <datta> darkscript: at last someone responded to my question, i am really happy
[19:45] <jordanwb> mogi22: no clue
[19:45] <mogi22> jordanwb, i think its not in fstab b/c i didnt have sata on during install
[19:46] <mogi22> jordanwb, ready for another twist?  i just put the dvd into my old dvd-ram on another pc, and it did load and mount!
[19:46] <jordanwb> mogi22: possibly, change /dev/scd0 to /dev/scd1 if that exists
[19:46] <Flomar> MOUD, in nvidia settings i haven`t other similar resolutions that fits in my monitor :( i hate 18.5 screens... but it`s in my work so... i have no choice...
[19:46] <aspidites> if /tmp isn't a separate partition, what determines its size?
[19:46] <tanveeer> how to check if have java installed on ubuntu
[19:46] <Berzerker> `
[19:47] <tanveeer> how to check if have java installed on ubuntu?
[19:47] <MOUD> Flomar: what's your resolution now?
[19:47] <MOUD> tanveeer: try typing  "  java  " on a terminal
[19:47] <tanveeer> kk
[19:47] <MOUD> tanveeer: if you get an error then that means that doesn't work
[19:47] <Berzerker> java -version
[19:47] <Berzerker> to see what version you have
[19:48] <Berzerker> if you do have it
[19:48] <ubuntunewbie> hi would like to know is there any good application to schedule record internet radio station ?
[19:48] <MOUD> Flomar: one sec,
[19:48] <ubuntunewbie> such as shoutcast
[19:48] <MOUD> gonna reboot my machine
[19:48] <mogi22> jordanwb, no i'm not worried about automount, i mean the disc mounted just fine on another older dvd-ram drive, but this newer one couldnt mount it?  how is that possible?
[19:48] <ubuntunewbie> thank you
[19:49] <mogi22> jordanwb, or are u saying do something else to make disc work on the newer sata drive?
[19:49] <mogi22> jordanwb, the sata drive is dual layer capable btw
[19:49] <mogi22> jordanwb, not sure if that matters
[19:49] <balor> What's the name of Ubuntu's graphical X configuration UI?
[19:49] <jordanwb> mogi22: I'm not sure what to do, I've never had two optical drives in one computer before. Try removing the other one and see what happenes
[19:50] <Berzerker> balor, there is none. sudo pico /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[19:50] <mogi22> jordanwb, no the older dvdram is in another but identical pc
[19:50] <mogi22> jordanwb, they're not in same pc
[19:50] <balor> Berzerker: I thought Bulletproof X meant that there was some kind of config UI (eg: http://fosswire.com/post/2007/08/ubuntu-getting-xorgconf-gui/)
[19:50] <jordanwb> mogi22: Oh
[19:51] <mogi22> jordanwb, its just weird that both drives work now (can see them in lshw) but only one can mount the disc and its the older one?!
[19:51] <Guest18027> my desktop on xfce isn't showing properly.. no background or desktop icons
[19:51] <Guest18027> any clues?
[19:51] <Berzerker> balor, no idea.
[19:51] <Guest18027> i've looked all the settings
[19:51] <aspidites> Guest18027: IIRC there is a manage desktop option for xfce's file manager
[19:52] <Flomar> MOUD, my resolution is the native format for 18.5 `` monitors: 1360x768
[19:52] <jordanwb> mogi22: I don't know how Ubuntu automounts devices
[19:52] <need_help> hey need help! why this not working! find /home -name ".backup.sh" -exec chmod a+x {} \; thx
[19:52] <bastidrazor> balor, which version of ubuntu?
[19:53] <Guest18027> aspidites, not seeing it bro
[19:53] <bastidrazor> balor, system>preferences>display  for 9.04
[19:53] <SaintAardvark> need_help: how is it not working? do you mean to start the filename with a dot, or is it meant to be a wildcard?
[19:53] <stinky> hello.. I am having a hard time adding workspaces to my desktop in compiz... Is there a way to tell compiz to add a workspace from the commandline like: compiz -addworkspace
[19:54] <mogi22> jordanwb, but its not automount i care about.  i cant manually mount on the new drive but i can on  the old
[19:54] <Guest18027> aspidites, that is the setting I am looking for, though
[19:54] <need_help> SaintAardvark file called .backup.sh
[19:54] <balor> bastidrazor: What's the actual command? (My X is broken)
[19:54] <mogi22> jordanwb, i dont get why the new one just cant read the disc
[19:54] <aspidites> Guest18027: on KDE4 right now..gimme a sec
[19:54] <jordanwb> mogi22: try a different disk
[19:54] <Guest18027> it's just weird... no desktop icons
[19:54] <Guest18027> no background
[19:54] <bastidrazor> balor, in cli you could use xrandr
[19:54] <Guest18027> it's just a blue background
[19:55] <balor> bastidrazor: One would need a working X to use xrandr :)
[19:55] <bastidrazor> balor, with X being broken you don't need to set up your screen.. you need to fix X.
[19:55] <ideamonk_> how do we look for "any of the matches" in grep ?
[19:55] <aspidites> is the size of your /tmp directory determined by your swap partition if it isn't mounted separately?
[19:55] <ideamonk_> is it [] or ^ ?
[19:55] <mogi22> jordanwb, what is it today?  i just dont consider the obvious things.  hold on
[19:55] <l1m5> i'm having trouble ssh-ing into my jaunty machine. i use <username>@IP:<dir> but when i type (the correct) password it says permission denied
[19:56] <SaintAardvark> need_help: try find /home -name ".backup.sh" -ls
[19:56] <SaintAardvark>  see what that shows
[19:56] <l1m5> its permission denied (publickey,password) rather
[19:57] <MaGicMaX> if my device is "scsi11" which device would i have to use in the /dev/sd?
[19:58] <mogi22> jordanwb,  ok everythign just got weirder, not only did it automount the other disc, it did it to the parent dir that normal mounts are in?!  but there is nothing in fstab about this dev!
[19:58] <bastidrazor> balor, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  .. have you tried anything like this to get X back in working order? have you installed drivers that are not working?
[19:59] <MOUD> Flomar: sorry, had things to do on the last minute.
[19:59] <jordanwb> mogi22: so where did it mount to?
[19:59] <balor> bastidrazor: I'm getting there.  I just thought there may be an easier way.
[19:59] <Travis-43> every now and then (every 2-3 days) ubuntu will randomly lock up entirely. What is a good way to try to figure out what is causing this?
[19:59] <MOUD> Flomar: try this on a terminal:  sudo nvidia-xconfig -a     then reboot your machine
[19:59] <cmiller> is there a repository for php where i can get a stable version of php 5.3.0 for ubuntu 9.04
[20:00] <mogi22> jordanwb, to /media when normally its /media/cdrom0
[20:00] <jordanwb> mogi22: That's not right
[20:00] <mogi22> jordanwb, i put the problem disc back in the sata drive and still no mount when it just mounted a similar disc seconds ago!
[20:00] <MaGicMaX> the output of "cat /proc/scsi/scsi" states that my ipod is "scsi11" which device would i have to use in the /dev/ directory to access it?
[20:00] <mogi22> jordanwb, this is so fried
[20:01] <jordanwb> mogi22: So there seems to be nothing wrong with the drive itself, but rather the automounter, which I believe it hal
[20:01] <mogi22> jordanwb, no i cant manually mount the disc either
[20:02] <ruadh> I have typed the following in Rhythmbox -> New: http://www.smoothradionorthwest.co.uk , added it to the list, but on clicking the radio station I get an error saying 'text/html decoder. What should I try?
[20:02] <mogi22> jordanwb, and the the drive automounted the other disc just fine ... well to the wrong dir but still mounted
[20:02] <jordanwb> mogi22: so you can't do "sudo mount /dev/sr0 /mount/point"?
[20:02] <SaintAardvark> Travis-43:  my guess would be either memory or graphics card
[20:02] <SaintAardvark> If you're using restricted drivers for the graphics card, try disabling them
[20:02] <Flomar> MOUD, i`ll try
[20:03] <SaintAardvark> As for memory, might want to try memtest when you boot up
[20:03] <mogi22> jordanwb, exactly
[20:03] <mogi22> jordanwb, but i can w/ the other disc
[20:04] <jordanwb> then there is something wronf with the disk that won't mount
[20:04] <paulnickerson> i think my os is missing a bunch of needed files, and i dont know what they are. is there a way to revert to just after my ubuntu install without actually reinstalling unbuntu?
[20:06] <adix666> hello
[20:07] <MOUD> hello adix666
[20:07] <MaGicMaX> the output of "cat /proc/scsi/scsi" states that my ipod is "scsi11" which device would i have to use in the /dev/ directory to access it?
[20:07] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : just to inform I found a how to record it
[20:07] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : at synaptic , find kstreamripper :)
[20:07] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, cool, hopefully I'll remember if I ever want to record streams
[20:07] <D3RGPS31> how do i replace what a variable is equal to using sed, if i don't know what the variable is equal to
[20:08] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : you can download it , just 200kb only
[20:08] <mogi22> jordanwb, except that the "bad" disc does mount just fine in the old dvd-ram
[20:08] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, I would if I needed it
[20:08] <chrisdebald> hi my friends can some one help me installing printer driver for brother dcp 7010l
[20:08] <jordanwb> mogi22: That's odd
[20:08] <Seidos> ubuntunewbie, how did you find it?
[20:09] <mogi22> jordanwb, u r telling me
[20:09] <Isaacariah> Hi all
[20:09] <mogi22> jordanwb, i'm beyond baffled
[20:09] <MOUD> hello Isaacariah
[20:09] <SaintAardvark> D3RGPS31: is this in the middle of a larger shell script?
[20:09] <Isaacariah> I've got an animated gif of my desktop that I made in ubunut, its only a few seconds long, but its 2 meg
[20:09] <cmiller> exit
[20:09] <cmiller> quit
[20:09] <Isaacariah> is there any sort of animated gif optimiser I can isntall?
[20:09] <mogi22> jordanwb, its like it works and doesnt work!  damn glad i didnt toss the old dvd-ram
[20:09] <D3RGPS31> SaintAardvark: not large, but yes
[20:10] <jordanwb> mogi22: I can't help you any furthur
[20:10] <mogi22> jordanwb, hehe no worries, u did wonderfully thus far.  time to pay it fwd i guess
[20:10] <SaintAardvark> D3RGPS31:  So you want to do something like:  FOO=$(something); sed -e's/this/$FOO/'
[20:10] <SaintAardvark> is that right?
[20:10] <jordanwb> mogi22: You may want to try the ubuntu forums
[20:11] <Isaacariah> anybody?
[20:11] <Chogogo> Hello
[20:11] <D3RGPS31> SaintAardvark: yes; but when i try that it just adds to what the variable is equal to; not replacing with it is equal to
[20:12] <SaintAardvark> D3RGPS31:  Hm...can you put a snippet into paste.ubuntu.com?
[20:12] <stinky> ok, google saved my day again... nevermind :D
[20:12] <MOUD> How do I configure my wlan0 with IP, Subnet, Default Gateway, and DNS?
[20:13] <box> hey, i want a shell script to be able to run as root without the user running it having to sudo to root. I did chown root:root file.sh and chmod 7777 file.sh and it's still not working. any ideas?
[20:13] <MOUD> How do I configure my wlan0 with IP, Subnet, Default Gateway, and DNS? Via Terminal
[20:13] <D3RGPS31> SaintAardvark: http://paste.ubuntu.com/256486/
[20:13] <jordanwb> box: changing the file permissions only change that
[20:14] <box> jordanwb, what?
[20:14] <jordanwb> box: In order to run a program as root you must use sudo
[20:14] <hwilde> what is the link for the apt alt http based repos to download packages?
[20:14] <jordanwb> box: chmod 0777 changes the file's permissions
[20:14] <josh|> box and jordanwb : google setuid
[20:14] <box> jordanwb, i know, but what about the setuid bit? there's no way i can get it to work?
[20:14] <box> josh|, i'm setting the setuid bit
[20:15] <jordanwb> box, josh|: I don't know about the setuid bit
[20:15] <owen1> how to find serial number of my machine?
[20:15] <owen1> (from the terminal)
[20:16] <josh|> might be chmod 4755?
[20:16] <Slart> owen1: serial number? there might be more than one.. lshw might tell you more
[20:16] <box> josh|, i've got it set to 7777 and i figured that would work
[20:16] <MOUD> !wlan
[20:16] <owen1> Slart: i did it, can't find it there
[20:16] <Slart> box: scripts can't be set to setuid.. for security reasons
[20:17] <box> Slart, so what, i'm gonna have to write a C program?
[20:17] <jordanwb> Slart, josh|: so what does the setuid bit do?
[20:17] <Slart> box: what kind of script is it?
[20:17] <Flomar> MOUD, hi, i'm back
[20:17] <Slart> jordanwb: afaik it runs the file not as the person that tries to run it but as the user that owns the file
[20:17] <MOUD> Flomar: welcome back
[20:17] <box> Slart, it's changing passwords with passwd, and yes, i'm aware this is a bad idea.
[20:18] <hwilde> anybody have the link to the apt alt url http based deb package download page?
[20:18] <MOUD> Flomar: news?
[20:18] <jordanwb> Slart: I see
[20:18] <Flomar> MOUD,  nvidia-xconfig -a returned 1 warning and 1 error
[20:18] <Flomar> MOUD, but writed data to xorg.conf
[20:18] <box> Slart, jordanwb that's correct, but as far as i can tell it only works with executables, that is, my sh executable would have to be owned by root and have the setuid bit set.
[20:18] <josh|> slart, someone here mentioned also that shell scripts couldn't be setuid root: http://www.unix.com/unix-dummies-questions-answers/17935-setuid-root-chown.html
[20:19] <Slart> box: well.. I don't really know how they did the "no setuid bit for scripts" so I don't know how to do it.. I can imagine a few elaborate work arounds though
[20:19] <josh|> Slart, but someone else disagreed.. should be simple to test
[20:19] <MOUD> Flomar: yes, that's normal. Is it working good now?
[20:19] <owen1> how to find serial number on macbookpro?
[20:19] <Flomar> MOUD, http://paste.ubuntu.com/256488/
[20:19] <Slart> josh|: I've already tested it =) can't remember what I wanted to do.. something with alsa I think
[20:19] <MOUD> Flomar: ok, did you reboot?
[20:19] <Flomar> MOUD, well, it`s appering to be OK... i`lll monitor my dmesg and see if i get new NVRM errors... or if my X freezes again
[20:20] <Flomar> MOUD, thanks ;)
[20:20] <Isaacariah> is there anyway to compress GIF files to make a 3 second gif smaller than 2MB?
[20:20] <Tokeiito> Isaacariah: how this question related with Ubuntu?
[20:20] <Tokeiito> and yes it is. use a bit smaller inner images
[20:20] <SaintAardvark>  
[20:20] <SaintAardvark> D3RGPS31:  Try http://paste.ubuntu.com/256489/
[20:21] <MOUD> Flomar: no problem. I hope it stays good. :)
[20:21] <Isaacariah> Tokeiito, I used the ubuntu screen capture software to create an animated gif of my desktop, I was wondering if theres any software available for ubuntu that can compress the gif into the smaller size
[20:21] <SaintAardvark> D3RGPS31: I needed double quotes to avoid passing $ip literally (dollar i p);
[20:21] <hellhound> does anyone use gyachi?
[20:22] <Slart> box: this looks easy to edit to your needs http://blog.mecworks.com/articles/2006/02/23/bash-scripting-tip-running-a-script-as-root/
[20:22] <SaintAardvark> And the brackets in the regex let you replace the IP address
[20:22] <Raulin> How do I enable gdm in ubuntu? rc-update doesn't work.
[20:22] <box> Slart, i'll look into it.
[20:22] <Pici> Raulin: sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults
[20:23] <Slart> hellhound: have a look http://popcon.ubuntu.com/
[20:23] <box> Slart, nah, i need it to work without requiring the root passwd
[20:23] <Chogogo> Hello, Im running ubuntu Jaunty, Clean installation, Graph card nVidida GeForce 8400. driver installed with Envyng. 3D effects working  until I activate pluggin "Cube desktop or Rotate Cube" then 3D stops with no fail message (the cube works thoug). Have to activate desktops effects in "System/Apperance/Visual effects" menu to get effects again, but then the Cube is then diactivated...What is happening...how can i Fix it?
[20:23] <MOUD> how do I know my wlan settings on terminal? (IP, subnet, def gateway, DNS)
[20:24] <Raulin> Pici: that gives me the nice "missing LSB information" error.
[20:24] <Slart> box: you might want to check the man page for sudo too.. I think you can pipe the password from a file.. of course this file will have your password in plaintext so it's a big security concern.. but at the end of the day it's your machine
[20:24] <D3RGPS31> SaintAardvark: thank you :D
[20:24] <SaintAardvark> No problem!
[20:25] <box> Slart, yeah
[20:25] <Slart> box: or at least it's your machine until someone roots it becuase you had your password in a file.. but you've been warned
[20:25] <client3424> MOUD: "ifconfig", "route" and "cat /etc/resolv.conf"
[20:26] <box> Slart, yes i have.
[20:27] <ErTutina> hi all
[20:28] <hellhound> I am using gyachi 1.2.2 on Ubuntu 9.04 and for some reason it will set my status to "Auto Away" after the time set regardless of me still on the computer (web browsing, working on a document, etc.) and it will not let me change the status unless I chat with someone or log off and log on
[20:28] <MOUD> client3424: thanks
[20:28] <gwildor> hellhound, your are setting the idle time of that app...not the computer..

[20:29] <dividebyzer0> what opens a .xps file?
[20:29] <Flomar> MOUD, happens now
[20:29] <hellhound> gwildor: do you know of a way to have it read the computer's idle time?  There is only one idle setting on gyachi

[20:30] <dividebyzer0> slart: I tried openoffice but cant find what will open it
[20:30] <hwilde> dividebyzer0, it should just be a text file.
[20:31] <dividebyzer0> hwilde: it wouldnt open, it asks for some kind of filter?
[20:31] <dividebyzer0> should I try with notepad?
[20:31] <hwilde> dividebyzer0, vi
[20:31] <box> god damn, i just wrote a C program to test setuid and it still doesn't work.
[20:31] <dividebyzer0> vi?

[20:31] <Slart> dividebyzer0: well.. it's a microsoft format.. not sure you'll find much interest for a proprietary alternative to pdf (at least that's what it looks like from a quick google)
[20:32] <hwilde> dividebyzer0,  GhostXPS or Okular will open it
[20:32] <need_help> hey need help find . \(! -name Linux\) -print ( need to find all files expect Linux ! how i can fix it give me error thx

[20:35] <dividebyzer0> Im not running KDE
[20:35] <dividebyzer0> i am on GNOME
[20:35] <need_help> SaintAardvark maybe need Linux \) ? right
[20:35] <hwilde> need_help, do your find and then pipe it to    | grep -v Linux
[20:35] <Flomar> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256495/
[20:35] <Flomar> MOUD http://paste.ubuntu.com/256495/
[20:35] <MOUD> Flomar: ok
[20:36] <Flomar> MOUD now i note something strange... the monitor is unknown but in the nvidia settings panel it shows the correct model, Samsung Syncmaster, etc...
[20:36] <SaintAardvark> need_help:  yep, space between Linux and slash bracket
[20:36] <need_help> hwilde why i want to use grep! i'm trying to learn via find command ! i know using grep :)
[20:36] <need_help> SaintAardvark thx =)
[20:36] <dividebyzer0> slart: still there?
[20:36] <Slart> dividebyzer0: yes
[20:36] <dividebyzer0> it says okular is for KDE
[20:36] <Slart> dividebyzer0: so?
[20:36] <dividebyzer0> would it still run if I dont have KDE?
[20:37] <Slart> probably not..  but what's stopping you from installing KDE?
[20:37] <MOUD> Flomar: try downloading the Monitor drivers.
[20:37] <fatbrain_t> Hi, when booting with LiveCD (9.04) installing openssh-server is there something (by default) blocking incoming connections?
[20:37] <x404x> is apache obsolete ?
[20:37] <dividebyzer0> I like GNOME
[20:37] <Slart> dividebyzer0: they are not exclusive you know.. you can run KDE apps on GNOME and vice versa
[20:37] <Rosswell98> !fr
[20:37] <dividebyzer0> ooOoh k Ill give it a shot
[20:38] <dividebyzer0> thanks
[20:38] <hellhound> gwildor: do you know of a way to have it read the computer's idle time?  There is only one idle setting on gyachi
[20:38] <Rosswell98> Salu
[20:38] <Slart> dividebyzer0: if it's in the repos just install it.. you'll have to install something like 30 MB of extra KDE libraries.. but that's all
[20:38] <ubuntunewbie> Seidos : sorry i was away . Found it through google .Kinda hard to find .Anyway gtg now see you next time :)
[20:38] <Flomar> MOUD, where?
[20:38] <dividebyzer0> yeah I see that now
[20:38] <dividebyzer0> brb
[20:38] <MOUD> Flomar: try googling it
[20:39] <box> UGH. apparently the setuid bit sets the effective uid and not the real uid, and passwd checks the real uid.
[20:40] <heatmzzr> whats up with getdeb.net   wont load up?
[20:40] <hwilde> heatmzzr, same here.
[20:41] <hwilde> there was an alt apt http based thing somewhere but I can't remember the link now
[20:41] <Flomar> MOUD, Samsung just displays driver for win =/
[20:41] <heatmzzr> hwilde: no biggy. was gonna try that flock browser
[20:42] <MOUD> Flomar: Syncmaster what?
[20:42] <Flomar> MOUD Syncmaster 933SN
[20:43] <MOUD> Flomar: ok
[20:43] <ErTutina> :|
[20:44] <hwilde> anybody here know about compiling arm kernels?
[20:46] <foster04> hello there... I am looking for some information on hashing... is this the right place?
[20:46] <apparle> please suggest a dictionary which can work offline
[20:46] <heatmzzr> apparle: hashing? smoking hash or what?
[20:47] <MOUD> Flomar: there's no driver for it and also tried similar models too. BTW, are you using ubuntu 32-bit or 64-bit?
[20:47] <xor> Is there a way to use more recent packages then the original ones?
[20:47] <Flomar> 32 bit
[20:47] <apparle> apparle: what?
[20:47] <foster04> nop dude... I need to know how to extract hashes from a php or html login page
[20:48] <Flomar> MOUD, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=648349 what do you think to update settings manually in xorg?
[20:48] <apparle> heatmzzr: foster04 wants info on hashing..........do you know a dictionary which will work offline
[20:48] <x404x> is there a setting in apt.conf to delete packages after download ? like is possible in synaptic
[20:48] <Pici> foster04: Thats not really on-topic for this channel. Maybe ##security ?
[20:48] <john> hi all
[20:48] <foster04> apparle: what do you mean by that??? like a words dictionary? or something else????
[20:49] <foster04> Pici: Thanks a lot
[20:49] <Guest19008> can someone tell me how to dd an img to my kingston usb drive ?
[20:49] <apparle> x404x: you mean you want to download the package...install it and then deleted the deb fine downloaded??
[20:49] <x404x> yes apparle
[20:49] <apparle> foster04: word dictionary similar to 'wordweb' on windows
[20:50] <Guest19008> dd if=<PCBSD7.1.1-x86-USB.img>(((( of=/dev/da0 bs=1m ))))  jow do i know were ?
[20:50] <x404x> there is a setting in synaptic for it. but i am building an installscript using apt-get
[20:50] <vikb> ubuntu boot times slow
[20:50] <foster04> apparle: sorry but no idea.... try search functuin on google
[20:50] <Guest19008> edbian ! :D
[20:50] <Guest19008> the king of ubuntu :P
[20:51] <apparle> x404x: you can use the command 'sudo apt-get clean' to delete the downloaded files
[20:51] <x404x> all of them or just the last package ?
[20:51] <MOUD> Flomar: I'm not sure about it because if you mess up with it then all your interface might stop working. Also, it's unlikely to work because it's for an old ubuntu version.
[20:51] <edbian> Guest19008: Am I that good? :)
[20:51] <edbian> Guest19008: Dr_Willis surely knows more than me
[20:52] <hatter243> How does one tell what resolution their X is running at from the CLI?
[20:52] <Guest19008> edbian ehm u helped me befor by saying how to get that dock to that program.. dont remember the name off it
[20:52] <Guest19008> edbian are you good on knowing how to mount img files to usb ?
[20:52] <x404x> k ill try that, thanx apparle
[20:52] <MOUD> Flomar: Which resolution are you using now? And is it 32-bit or 64-bit ubuntu?
[20:52] <edbian> Guest19008: Avant Window Navigator?
[20:52] <edbian> Guest19008: Well whatever it was, I'm glad I helped
[20:52] <Guest19008> edbian yes that was me
[20:53] <Guest19008> edbian yesterday
[20:53] <edbian> Guest19008: Is there anything else you need help with? :)
[20:53] <Flomar> MOUD, 32 bit ubuntu with the resolution that i want to keep: 1360x768
[20:54] <rufensis> Help!!  I messed with iptables the other day and now I can't even access the internet from the desktop machine (ibex) I had planed to use as a media server.  I was screwing around with vpn and followed a guide.  Now I really just want to revert to the default before I started messing around.
[20:54] <apparle> what is the diffrence between remove and purge for apt-get
[20:54] <supersasho> hi.. how can i copy from console tty1 for example
[20:54] <llutz> apparle: read man-page
[20:55] <Guest19008> edbian yes it is actualy
[20:55] <morphias_> remove - remove a certain package; purge - removes anything that is no longer used from the system ?
[20:55] <llutz> morphias_: wrong
[20:55] <edbian> rufensis: pastebin the output of "sudo iptables -L"
[20:55] <Guest19008> edbian this comand just readed it dd if=<PCBSD7.1.1-x86-USB.img>(((( of=/dev/da0 bs=1m ))))  jow do i know were ?
[20:55] <MOUD> Flomar: Well, you can try the beta driver from nvidia but I never tried it. You may need to ask help on installing it if you want to.  http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_190.18.html
[20:55] <Pici> apparle, morphias_: remove just removes the package, purge will get rid of any system configuration files associated with the file as well.
[20:55] <edbian> morphias_: remove - removes the binary and most other things, purge - removes everything except the .<appname> folder in /home/<you>
[20:56] <Flomar> MOUD,  i already tested with no sucess :( the 185 version
[20:56] <Isaacariah> Hello, my ubuntu laptop has an intel GMA 4500M graphics accellerator, but the performance is considerably slower than that of dual booted Vista. I was just wondering if i need to install a GMA driver or enable it somehow?
[20:56] <MOUD> Flomar: Other than that I can't really help, sorry
[20:56] <Guest19008> edbian i need to know how to know were my usb drive is
[20:56] <edbian> Guest19008: That command is mostly nonsense?  What's with all of the parentheses?
[20:56] <Flomar> MOUD, thanks, really :D i'll change my board to an old tnt riva 32mb to see how it behaves
[20:56] <llutz> Guest19008: sudo fdisk -l, compare size
[20:56] <edbian> Guest19008: To figure out the device name (/dev/<something>) look at the output of "sudo fdisk -l"
[20:57] <edbian> what llutz said
[20:57] <x404x> can i use sudo -i and send the password directly ? it would save a lot of sudo in my scripts
[20:57] <gbrethen> is there any lightscribe for 64 bit ubuntu?
[20:58] <rufensis> edbian:http://pastebin.com/d497b2580   What's weird is i can ssh into that machine over a linksys router
[20:58] <edbian> x404x: I think su -c will make the script prompt for sudo  power
[20:58] <Guest19008> edbian i got an list but it dosent say somthing of usb
[20:58] <Guest19008> edbian aah i found it :)
[20:58] <edbian> Guest19008: there ya go
[20:59] <vikb> I have installed kubuntu since then boot times are slower
[20:59] <MOUD> Flomar: The only thing that I can think of is that even if you geforce support a high resolution it might be struggling to run with your resolution. You might trying to 1280x960 or 1280x768  . Or, it might be a fan problem on your Nvidia card. Try cleaning it.
[20:59] <Guest19008> edbian will look now if i can fix this
[20:59] <edbian> Guest19008: now: "dd if=/path/to/input of=/dev/<usb>
[20:59] <MOUD> *trying to run at 1280...
[21:00] <edbian> rufensis: Your iptables is totally blank and allows all connections.  It isn't blocking internet access in any way.  (It isn't doing anything)
[21:00] <Guest19008> edbian i got this agen bash: of=/dev/sdb: No such file or directory :(
[21:00] <apparle> Pici: thanks.....
[21:00] <Flomar> hmm
[21:00] <edbian> Guest19008: The command is "dd"
[21:00] <x404x> hm dont look hopeful su -c only gives a help menu, su -c sudo -i gives invalid option
[21:00] <edbian> Guest19008: "dd if=/some/input of=/some/output"
[21:00] <Flomar> MOUD, 53 C degrees is too hot? that`s the temperature that the nvidia x server is showing
[21:00] <edbian> Guest19008: Alternatively you could just use "cp" (copy)
[21:00] <Guest19008> edbian yes i did that
[21:00] <rufensis> edbian: thanks, at least I can eliminate that as the problem.
[21:01] <edbian> Guest19008: ??? Typo?
[21:01] <Guest19008> edbian it sedd wen i did that command that u sedd before was Disk /dev/sdb: 16.0 GB, 16059990016 bytes
[21:01] <Polt{laptop}> hey guys I wanted to ask someone a question about ext4
[21:01] <edbian> rufensis: Unless you specify otherwise iptables rules are not saved after reboots
[21:01] <Polt{laptop}> I managed to finally convert
[21:01] <Polt{laptop}> what are the benefits of a fresh formatted ext4 vs a conversion
[21:01] <guntbert> !enter | Polt{laptop}
[21:01] <edbian> Guest19008: So you have a 16Gb flash drive at /dev/sdb ??
[21:01] <wingdspur> I'm having problems trying to mount an LVM partition that was created in gentoo
[21:01] <Polt{laptop}> !enter gunbert
[21:01] <Polt{laptop}> ah ok I see
[21:02] <Guest19008> edbian yes
[21:02] <edbian> Guest19008: What file are you trying to copy there?
[21:02] <edbian> Guest19008: A partition on your hdd?
[21:02] <Guest19008> edbian this dd if=<PCBSD7.1.1-x86-USB.img> of=/dev/sdb bs=1m
[21:02] <MOUD> Flomar: I don't think so, mine runs at 60 C sometimes. I think it's the resolution then.
[21:02] <x404x> hm maybe i can just put su in the top of the script, then type the pass and take 15 pots of coffee lol
[21:02] <rufensis> edbian: good to know.  I wonder what's going on then.  I have full connectivity over the router with this machine, but i can't even ping the router from the problem machine once I ssh into it.
[21:02] <x404x> upgrading takes a while on dsl
[21:03] <Polt{laptop}> and for future record ... I do use my enter key a little bit but I talk in spurts and then I allow others to talk. There is no need to harp on something so minor and make issue of it. I can see how some people might annoy you with that but I am not one of them so no prejudice please.
[21:03] <Polt{laptop}> thank you
[21:03] <Guest19008> edbian isit somthing rong i spell here ? dd if=<PCBSD7.1.1-x86-USB.img> of=/dev/sdb bs=1m
[21:04] <wingdspur> How would I go about mounting an LVM parition that already has the volume groups and stuff created
[21:05] <MOUD> I have to go. See you ppl later.
[21:05] <MOUD> bye
[21:06] <unop> wingdspur,  http://www.brandonhutchinson.com/Mounting_a_Linux_LVM_volume.html
[21:07] <Guest19008> edbian dd if=PCBSD7.1.1-x86-USB.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1m turned out  dd: invalid number `1m'
[21:07] <le1> alguem pode ajudar um ignorante ?
[21:07] <edbian> Guest19008: Remove those <'s
[21:08] <llutz> Guest19008: try bs=4k
[21:08] <le1> alguem do brasil?
[21:08] <edbian> Guest19008: Why limit the BYTES at all?
[21:08] <le1> can anyone help a complete ubuntu dummy?
[21:08] <llutz> !br | le1
[21:09] <le1> Ubottu - valeu
[21:09] <Guest19008> edbian dont know at all what im doing so :P
[21:09] <Ben64> Guest19008: BLOCKS and BYTES may be followed by the following multiplicative suffixes:
[21:09] <Ben64> xM M, c 1, w 2, b 512, kB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024,
[21:09] <Ben64> GB 1000*1000*1000, G 1024*1024*1024, and so on for T, P, E, Z, Y.
[21:09] <Guest19008> edbian it turned out dd: opening `/dev/sdb': Permission denied
[21:09] <edbian> Guest19008: LOL.  just take that bs= part out
[21:09] <le1> valeu = many thanks
[21:09] <Ben64> that was supposed to be on one line..
[21:09] <Ben64> anyway, Guest19008, what are you trying to do, dd is a dangerous command
[21:09] <edbian> Guest19008: "sudo dd if=yourfile of=/dev/sdb"
[21:10] <ilakast> hi
[21:10] <edbian> Ben64: He's copying some .img file onto his flash drive.  Wanna help him?  I have to go.
[21:10] <Ben64> hmm
[21:10] <Guest19008> edbian i think it works now :)
[21:10] <edbian> Guest19008: O good! :)
[21:11] <Guest19008> edbian it just stands there and blinking :S
[21:12] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, dd will take a while to copy over the img
[21:12] <PATX> What does it take to get a project into the packages that you can apt-get?

[21:14] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, the command dd itself won't display any text until the job is done.

[21:16] <frpaul_> Tkinter?
[21:16] <Spreadsheet> Vim
[21:17] <frpaul_> Yeah, vim is great. I just dont dig Tkinter
[21:17] <ichat> c_korn:  - try http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+ace
[21:17] <Guest19008> ibuclaw it seems so long time :S the file btw is 1.9 gb
[21:17] <c_korn> ichat: yes, but unace gives: File compressed with unknown method. Decompression not possible.
[21:17] <torn> What happened to the "temporary guest session" that was available in 8.10? I do not see it anywhere in 9.04.
[21:17] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, yeah, give it about 10 minutes
[21:17] <c_korn> forgot to mention that

[21:18] <deco> anyone know how to disable the black frames that appear when you minimize a window ?
[21:18] <Spreadsheet> I want to install a keyboard layout. The website for the layout tells you many ways to install it. There is a way using setxkbmap, and a way using the console. If I use setxkbmap, will I be able to use it in the virtual terminals? (Ctrl-Alt-F#)
[21:18] <Guest19008> ibuclaw to usb
[21:18] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, ew! I prefer to go pure FreeBSD thankyou :)

[21:27] <thefamousnomo> @Ben64 my son has a 7.10 install that he loves but i had trouble even booting 8.10
[21:27] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, in the top right hand corner of the window, you should see a drop down box
[21:27] <gfunk> i'm a billy bad ass of the command line word to da sista
[21:28] <thefamousnomo> @Ben64 now cant install anything for it, gutsy

[21:28] <coldReactive42> Can someone tell me that if I reformat my Toshiba NB205, I will lose my wifi capabilities in linux?
[21:28] <Ben64> thefamousnomo: yeah, the lts last for 3 or 5 years, other ones a lot less

[21:28] <Ben64> like i have 8.04 LTS, and i'll upgrade to 10.04 LTS when it comes out
[21:28] <Guest19008> ibuclaw done that
[21:29] <Ben64> thefamousnomo: oh but it will, and then everything will suck
[21:29] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, do you see a filesystem, then grey space after it ?
[21:29] <thefamousnomo> @Ben64 yep, prefer the lts myself

[21:29] <thefamousnomo> @Ben64 yes, worried bout that :)
[21:29] <FiremanEd> GArRet`: I use gidentd for my eggdrops
[21:29] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, bingo!!
[21:29] <ichat> 10.4 is sceduled to be an lts??? :)
[21:29] <gfunk> ok to ask about goppder?
[21:29] <Ben64> but i suggest you go to 8.04 while you can
[21:29] <qwyeth> coldReactive42:  It won't work out of the box, but all you have to do to make it work is install one package.  See here:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1215665
[21:29] <Guest19008> ibuclaw :D i feel smart xD
[21:29] <Ben64> cause once dapper repo's are down, it's tough
[21:29] <bearleontrax> I've read just about everywhere that for someone who's been using Windows for years, Ubuntu is a great beginner's choice but I can't seem to find why. I'm desperately seeking to get out of the Windows rat race because frankly, I'm not big on the direction that Microsoft is heading. Eye candy can be nice, but I'm looking for optimal performance while still being able to maintain my interests in web and graphics designing. Could anyone tell
[21:29] <Ben64> ichat: LTS every 2 years
[21:29] <guntbert> KaptenRodSkagg_: I see, I was too quick, in my system the nm-applet sits in the "notification area" and I have no idea how to add/remove applets from there - but I'll investigate
[21:29] <Guest19008> ibuclaw but now then xD
[21:30] <coldReactive42> qwyeth: But will it work without Windows present to enable wifi?
[21:30] <gfunk> cuase its easy to use brain trust
[21:30] <gfunk> yes
[21:30] <Guest19008> ibuclaw just add ?
[21:30] <qwyeth> coldReactive42: If it's already enabled then yes
[21:30] <thefamousnomo> Ben64: tbh, found Tinycore for my old compaq n400c, runs like a dream, prob will move to that and leave ubuntu to the desktops
[21:30] <gfunk> ubuntu is one of the easiest linux flavors to use its alot lkie windoze
[21:30] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, When you select "New"  set the "File System" as Fat32
[21:30] <coldReactive42> qwyeth: But I'm removing windows, won't that disable it?
[21:30] <Ben64> thefamousnomo: you ever try xubuntu? works great on slow systems
[21:30] <gfunk> now does ya puke infest brain cells get it?
[21:31] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, then Select "Add".  Then press the "Apply" button (green tick)
[21:31] <Guest19008> ibuclaw yes ive done that now
[21:31] <marcellocaetano> o que é isso
[21:31] <ichat> bearleontrax:  -  ubuntu is not windows, but at some points its better at some points its not (or at least not for everyone... -  yet still you can add or make changes to it... by installing new packages etc.
[21:31] <gfunk> no its sucks shit trew a straw i don't us eit
[21:31] <jiohdi> ben better than icewm?
[21:31] <GArReT`> FiremanEd, is that easy to install and use? since i've used a few Ident server already and none of them worked
[21:31] <thefamousnomo> Ben64: had that running on an old thinkpad but the sound was a NIGHTMARE!
[21:31] <gfunk> ubuntu is better over all
[21:31] <marcellocaetano> ??????????
[21:31] <Guest19008> ibuclaw now its green

[21:31] <jussi01> !language | gfunk
[21:31] <james__> hi all
[21:31] <Ben64> jiohdi: no idea, i haven't tried all wm's
[21:31] <Guest19008> ibuclaw how do i add the rar file now then ?
[21:31] <qwyeth> coldReactive42: No...  the only problem with that chip is that there is an "on/off" hardware feature that isn't supported yet in ubuntu... so if it's on, it'll stay on, and if it's off, it'll stay off
[21:31] <james__> i am james
[21:31] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, the filesystem is created :)
[21:31] <bearleontrax> ichat: my main concern is whether or not I'll be able to stick to web designing. Are there any supported applications for Ubuntu?
[21:31] <thefamousnomo> Ben64: the cirrus nightmare
[21:31] <gfunk> lol
[21:31] <Ben64> thefamousnomo: it's the same as ubuntu, just different window manager
[21:32] <guntbert> KaptenRodSkagg_: for now, in terminal type nm-applet &, you should get it back, but I don't know if that will last beyond a reboot
[21:32] <gfunk> gnome is your bets bet
[21:32] <marcellocaetano> quem são vocês?
[21:32] <james__> HAHOOOOOOOOOOO
[21:32] <Jakobsen> Hey.. I'm creating a minimal Ubuntu 9.04 install with XBMC.. I need to connect to a WPA2-PSK wireless network at boot.. How do I get it right? I found some guides, but they doesn't exactly help..
[21:32] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, close gparted. Then go into your Computer, and you should see the partition listed

[21:32] <coldReactive42> Thank you qwyeth. Will it be supported in Ubuntu 9.10 or 10.04?
[21:32] <james__> fdlg
[21:32] <guntbert> !ohmy | gfunk
[21:32] <thefamousnomo> Ben64: yep, sure it was 8.04 had used, but the thinkpad struggled even with xfce...
[21:32] <marcellocaetano> de onde falam?
[21:32] <need_help> hey need to ask in /etc/hosts.deny => ALL : ALL EXCEPT localhost (this allow system only localhost can execute any commands and use any service in the system) ? thx

[21:32] <Guest19008> ibuclaw it says 1 operating somthing
[21:32] <ichat> bearleontrax:  - but  its nearly imposible to tell you how to make ubuntu  your perfect os  if we dont know you - (and we dont) - so unless you have a quick way of telling  exactly what you want (and need)  - we'd never be able to tell you whats good for you
[21:33] <gfunk> omg censor ship time has arrived
[21:33] <Guest19008> ibuclaw wen i try to close it
[21:33] <gfunk> time to take me out lkie all da rest of dem freaks do
[21:33] <GArReT`> FiremanEd, will the eggdrop ident himself? or does it need settings?

[21:34] <jussi01> !guidelines > gfunk
[21:34] <bearleontrax> ichat: I'm a web designer. If there are any web designing applications out there that Ubuntu supports, that's really what I'm looking for. If not, can anyone confirm that WINE supports Adobe products?
[21:34] <GArReT`> FiremanEd, thank you I will appreciate it
[21:34] <ichat> bearleontrax:  -   to be honnest i wouldn't know -   ive tried nview - witch is a laught - and a piece of ......... pooh
[21:34] <jussi01> !appdb | bearleontrax
[21:34] <qwyeth> coldReactive42: I can't tell you for sure...  it is possible to use that feature with current linux drivers, but it's not in Karmic 9.10 yet because of conflicts with bluetooth.
[21:34] <guntbert> KaptenRodSkagg_: I'm not familiar with that error, please ask the channel again
[21:34] <gfunk> no thanks hater
[21:34] <coldReactive42> Figures -_-
[21:34] <ichat> so whenever i do stuff in webdev - you just use a text-editor
[21:34] <gfunk> the latets version should be fine
[21:35] <ichat> i never tried looking further
[21:35] <gfunk> do u guys know u can use old packages if uwanna fix issues with ubuntu?
[21:35] <qwyeth> bearleontrax: Have you considered running your neccessary tools in a virtual machine, like VirtualBox or VMWare?
[21:35] <bearleontrax> thank you jussi01
[21:35] <afazel> My wife is at home on the computer logged in on her user account through Gnome. I'm at work on my Windows PC and want to use SSH tunneling to VNC into the computer. I've looked here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC and that's fine, but it doesn't seem to work unless your computer is at the login screen. How do I do this?
[21:35] <need_help> hey need to ask in /etc/hosts.deny => ALL : ALL EXCEPT localhost (this allow system only localhost can execute any commands and use any service in the system) ? thx
[21:35] <ikonia> gfunk: calm down please
[21:35] <gfunk> just thought i'd metion that
[21:35] <ibuclaw> gfunk, /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:35] <gfunk> not really
[21:35] <ichat> but i do think there are good code editing tools with syntax highligting and stuff for ubuntu
[21:35] <gfunk> u can do that
[21:36] <Guest19008> ibuclaw now i have an screenshott were can i send it to ?
[21:36] <bearleontrax> qwyeth: I haven't yet installed any Linux Distro. I'm on Windows right now... just trying to decide whether or not it would be a smart decision to move to Ubuntu
[21:36] <Pricey> !live | bearleontrax
[21:36] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, any image hosting site.  ie:  http://imageshack.us
[21:36] <bearleontrax> Pricey: Is the LiveCD compatible with WINE?
[21:37] <bearleontrax> Or, I guess a better question would be whether or not WINE is compatible with the LiveCD.
[21:37] <Ben64> bearleontrax: you can check winehq.org for compatability
[21:37] <bryhoyt> Does anyone know: is the bootup speed likely to be quicker in karma than in jaunty?
[21:37] <bearleontrax> Ben64: Thank you. I'll look into it.
[21:37] <joaopinto> bearleontrax, if you are not familiar with Linux you should use dual boot
[21:37] <ibuclaw> bryhoyt, as far as I'm aware. The target is 10 seconds in Karmic on a netbook.
[21:37] <Guest19008> ibuclaw here http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/6819/screenshotrkw.png
[21:37] <Pricey> bearleontrax: the livecd will run any application a normal install would
[21:38] <guntbert> bearleontrax: with the live CD you get a running ubuntu without any changes to you system, so you can try it out
[21:38] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, ooh
[21:38] <Pricey> bearleontrax: You won't get hte same performance, and preferences won't save
[21:38] <bearleontrax> Pricey: Excellent. That's all I needed to know. =)
[21:38] <ichat> bearleontrax:  -  its a good tip (specially if you have for example windows 2000 lying arround (or can get ur hands on it) -   it will install nicely in  Virtualbox,   you could than run your webdev tools in vbox verry nicely (as if they run in ubuntu itself (seamless mode)
[21:38] <bryhoyt> thanks, ibuclaw
[21:38] <qwyeth> bearleontrax:  There are some good web design tools in linux... if you're used to Adobe products you should try Quanta.  I can't tell you from experience what works in Wine or not, but rest assured that if you have something that won't run and you need it to, you can always fall back on Virtualbox
[21:38] <jussi01> !code | bearleontrax
[21:38] <Pricey> bearleontrax: I would suggest though you look for native linux applicatinos rather than forcing windows stuff to run on here
[21:38] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, select "Cancel" ... then press the "Apply" button
[21:38] <FiremanEd> GArRet`: I have nothing special in the *.conf file, just had to make sure that I added to the linksys to port foward (port 113) to my local router IP address.
[21:39] <rufensis> I need advice on an ethernet problem.  Everything used to work.  I don't know what I did, but somehow I get no connection at all to the internet.  I'm in the middle of restarting right now and the system (ibex) is hung up on "Configuring network interfaces."  What can I do to rebuild the network interfaces config from scratch to get networking up?
[21:39] <bearleontrax> Oh, whoah. Please, jussi01. No offense to you and with all due respect, but I have no idea what all of that means. I have no prior experience with Linux.
[21:39] <KaptenRodSkagg_> anyone know how to get nm-applet back beside the clock? i deleted it unfortunaly (network manager)
[21:39] <Guest19008> ibuclaw the ! yellow sign is there somting to wory about ?
[21:39] <jussi01> bearleontrax: sorry, was a slight mistake on my part
[21:39] <Guest19008> ibuclaw now it got an error wen i tryed to apply
[21:39] <qwyeth> bearleontrax: That was a list of development programs that might work for you.
[21:40] <bearleontrax> jussi01: Not a problem. =) I'm just here looking for answers. I appreciate you trying to help.
[21:40] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, hmm
[21:40] <bearleontrax> qwyeth: Thank you. I was wondering lol.
[21:40] <GArReT`> FiremanEd, how do i do that... since I am linking a Windows PC to the Ubuntu PC via LAN...
[21:40] <Guest19008> ibuclaw says this If you want support, you need to provide the saved details!
[21:40] <limpc> hey.
[21:40] <GArReT`> and The Windows PC is the only one that can connect to the Internet @ FiremanEd
[21:40] <limpc> have a problem with my ubuntu. im using jaunty, and whenever a new window, alert, etc pops up, it pops up behind stuff and minimized
[21:41] <jussi01> !html | bearleontrax - this is what I was after.
[21:42] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, I think we should really take a new route into putting a liveCD image on your usb stick then... This seems to be going topsy turvy.
[21:43] <Guest19008> ibuclaw ok ty for the help anyways... im gonna try laying the tr file and test if it workes anyways
[21:43] <ibuclaw> Guest19008, have you heard of unetbootin ? It's an application that installs ISO images onto your USB drive.
[21:43] <ibuclaw> ie: turning them into LiveUSBs
[21:43] <ibuclaw> :\
[21:43] <meekatron> hello there i got a little question is there a terminal based program which will read the tags of my flac files and move and rename them into a folder say artist/album/track....

[21:48] <guntbert> KaptenRodSkagg_: you might need to post the error from running  nm-applet here, so someone can recognize it and help you...

[21:55] <NauTiluS1> hi

[21:55] <spynes> ikonia: oci8 is a generic name
[21:56] <hwilde> oscurochu, you might have to right click and unlock the panel first
[21:56] <ikonia> spynes: not used the 11 client, 8,9.10 only, I know there was problems connecting from 8 clients to 10 database, hence my question
[21:56] <einb> dalton: Could be many directories, depending the the software. Typically executables are stored in "/usr/bin".

[22:00] <bucky> aesthesia: don't put .dab or .deb on the end
[22:00] <traemccombs> I can ssh in to the box just fine, and I have vnc turned on cause it's prompting me for the password, but I've forgotten what I made the pass lol
[22:01] <aesthesia> bucky: depends on whether you're acting on a file or on a package in the database
[22:01] <stroyan> TheCheeze: .001 does not sound like a filetype at all.  Can you give a couple of specific examples of file names?  Can you explain where these files came from?
[22:01] <bucky> aesthesia: dpkg -l curl_7.18.2-8ubuntu4.1_i386.deb   what does that say
[22:02] <hwilde> meekatron, id3 -l
[22:02] <aesthesia> bucky: nothing, since the deb file is not in my directory
[22:02] <bucky> aesthesia: dpkg -l curl   how about that?
[22:02] <murlidhar> okies my partition table has changed and i am not able to automatically mount the ntfs partitions..... how to automatically mount the ntfs during the boot ?
[22:02] <bobbob1016> How can I move my existing Jaunty install to a different HDD?  The other HDD is connected via USB.
[22:02] <aesthesia> however, dalton downloaded the v3 deb of virtualbox
[22:02] <Noah> WINE doesn't seem to want to load some of the software I load, any advice?
[22:02] <stroyan> traemccombs: Run the vncpasswd command to set/reset the password.
[22:02] <crashoverride300> How do i tell if i have i need to update my kernel for valnerabilities so a craker will not get in my os
[22:02] <hwilde> bobbob1016, dd
[22:02] <aesthesia> thats what he could be working with
[22:02] <bucky> aesthesia: or dpkg -L curl  if you prefer
[22:02] <hwilde> !dd > bobbob1016
[22:02] <TheCheeze> they came from usenet. they work fine with winrar on windows
[22:02] <TheCheeze> stroyan^
[22:02] <hwilde> !clone | bobbob1016
[22:02] <MastaAce> a question concerning GRUB: I habe edited the menu.lst. But whatever change I do on the tim eor default boot partition, it seems like GRUB ignores my changes. I saved with SUDO. And the changes are persistent. But GRUB seems just to dont care when booting up. I've put the time to 10 seconds, but it boots alway ubuntu after ca. 2 seconds.
[22:03] <crashoverride300> well
[22:03] <TheCheeze> should i just try to run winrar through wine?
[22:03] <crashoverride300> anybody
[22:03] <hwilde> MastaAce, what is the path to the file you are editing ?
[22:03] <traemccombs> stroyan: I don't have that command via command line is it part of a utility to grab?
[22:03] <Noah> WINE won't run winrar for me for some reason. =/
[22:03] <murlidhar> TheCheeze: just sudo apt-get install unrar
[22:03] <MastaAce> hwilde: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:03] <crashoverride300> hay I ask yall a ??
[22:03] <murlidhar> TheCheeze: then use ur archive manager ....
[22:04] <aesthesia> Noah: any reason you're running winrar?
[22:04] <bucky> aesthesia: if you do a dpkg -l <debname_version.deb>  then it's going to say it's not installed
[22:04] <stroyan> TheCheeze: Those are just parts of a file that was broken up into smaller chunks.  You can join them together with "cat name.*".  See http://www.binaries4all.com/001/
[22:04] <chessnutmushroom> guys, do you know how to speed up openGL effect in gnome, its really lagging
[22:05] <crashoverride300> HOW DO I UPDATE MY KERNEL SO I WILL NOT GET VALNERADILITIES
[22:05] <traemccombs> stroyan: what package is vncpasswd in?
[22:05] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: you should automatically recieve updates
[22:05] <stroyan> traemccombs: I have man page for "vncpasswd".  But the executable on my system is /usr/bin/tightvncpasswd from the tightvncserver package. ?
[22:05] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: you don't need caps
[22:05] <aesthesia> bucky: yes thats why i wasn't suggesting that
[22:06] <crashoverride300> I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAY WORK
[22:06] <shiki-> chessnutmushroom, what do you mean?
[22:06] <xangua> crashoverride300: please don't scream
[22:06] <shiki-> chessnutmushroom, which opengl effect you mean?
[22:06] <murlidhar> how to reread the partition table ????
[22:06] <shiki-> murlidhar, huh?
[22:06] <Um_cara_qualquer> how i update VLC player on ubuntu?
[22:06] <chessnutmushroom> compiz fusion
[22:06] <traemccombs> stroyan: ahh I wonder if it'll be possible to do that since I'm running a different vnc server remotely now :(
[22:06] <crashoverride300> i want to make sure everthing is hacker safe for my home pc
[22:06] <aesthesia> murlidhar: sudo fdisk -l <device file>
[22:06] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: the updates will almost always work with no issues
[22:07] <chessnutmushroom> its really slow, im using the beam effect for minimizing window, its lagging
[22:07] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: nothing is absolutely safe from being cracked
[22:07] <chessnutmushroom> im using an nvideo geforce 8600m GT
[22:07] <xangua> Um_cara_qualquer: @google vlc ppa
[22:07] <murlidhar> aesthesia: eerrr what's <device file> ?
[22:07] <shiki-> chessnutmushroom, have you installed a driver for your vga?
[22:07] <xangua> @google vlc ppa | Um_cara_qualquer
[22:07] <hwilde> crashoverride300, there are no servers installed by default, so it is relatively safe.
[22:07] <chessnutmushroom> yeah the nvideo recommended driver
[22:07] <aesthesia> murlidhar: /dev/sda for the first SATA drive for instance
[22:07] <shiki-> hmm
[22:07] <Um_cara_qualquer> xangua: what is ppa?
[22:07] <xangua> jum no bot¿¿
[22:07] <lstarnes> !ppa | Um_cara_qualquer
[22:07] <shiki-> chessnutmushroom, if you type this into terminal: glxinfo | grep direct    what does it say?
[22:08] <murlidhar> aesthesia: okies but will it make the new partitions mount automatically ?
[22:08] <jussi01> !bot | xangua
[22:08] <crashoverride300> ok how do i know all that
[22:08] <xangua> ok thanks
[22:08] <pianistbaby> is there a way to tell whether my computer takes Serial ATA hard drives without opening it up?
[22:08] <aesthesia> murlidhar: no, it will just list the existing partition table
[22:08] <axisys> !emacs
[22:08] <pianistbaby> Question 2: what command do i run to find out my computer's processor name and speed?
[22:08] <murlidhar> aesthesia: then how to i automount the new partitions ?
[22:08] <aesthesia> murlidhar: if you want to repartition your drive you should really read a doc about it
[22:08] <chessnutmushroom> gl_ext_depth_bounds_test, GL_EXT_direct_state_Access
[22:08] <Um_cara_qualquer> xangua: i can upgrade all programs with "program ppa" ?
[22:09] <aesthesia> murlidhar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition
[22:09] <lstarnes> pianistbaby: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[22:09] <aesthesia> murlidhar: thats a fucntion of the /etc/fstab file
[22:09] <murlidhar> aesthesia: i have already made partitions to a new hard disk
[22:09] <axisys> http://pastebin.com/f18b38441 which emacs is recommended ?
[22:09] <murlidhar> aesthesia: yes i know fstab but i don't want to update it manually :(
[22:09] <crashoverride300> how do i tell if a craker/hacker is or has been in my os
[22:09] <hwilde> MastaAce, did you change the /boot partition or /etc/fstab ?
[22:09] <pianistbaby> lstarnes: thanks
[22:09] <crashoverride300> tell me
[22:09] <aesthesia> murlidhar: dunno how to help you there
[22:09] <stroyan> pianistbaby: "sudo lshw | grep SATA" could report a SATA controller.
[22:10] <chessnutmushroom> i have turned off vsync and put my settings to fast instead of quality
[22:10] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: it's not possible to detect every single intrusion
[22:10] <chessnutmushroom> its still slow
[22:10] <murlidhar> aesthesia: when i install ubuntu the fstab is made automatically ...... so i tot there must be something
[22:10] <pianistbaby> Which of the 2 processors is better/faster: 1) Intel Celeron 1.7 GHz.  or 2) AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3800+ (1000 CPU MHz)
[22:10] <murlidhar> aesthesia: okies. thanks anyways
[22:10] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: there are several log file under /var/log that may be usefuk
[22:10] <lstarnes> *useful
[22:10] <woble> hey there, im suffering major wifi problems after upgrade to jaunty.. speed drops to 1mbit max (got 100mbit but 54mbit router) <-- would it be an option to install backports newer version?
[22:10] <shiki-> chessnutmushroom, uhm... you can define your display size also..well.. only sync and refresh stays
[22:10] <crashoverride300> but hacker allway want to go in root
[22:10] <pianistbaby> stroyan: it shows nothing
[22:11] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: that's why the root account is locked by default
[22:11] <pianistbaby> stroyan: it probably means i have something newer than serial ata hard drives, huh?
[22:11] <aesthesia> murlidhar: theres a script yea, i just don't know where it is, and if its just in the d-i exe
[22:11] <crashoverride300> how sure r u
[22:11] <pianistbaby> what's one "generation" than sata hard drives
[22:11] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: i/var/log/auth.log /var/log/syslog /var/log/messages and /var/log/dmesg are four of the main logs
[22:11] <pianistbaby> ?
[22:11] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: ubuntu always locks it by default
[22:11] <hwilde> crashoverride300, look into the utilities chkrootkit and rkhunter
[22:11] <murlidhar> aesthesia: name of the script ?
[22:11] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: its priviliges can be accessed using sudo, but it is set up so that only users of the admin group can use it
[22:11] <aesthesia> murlidhar: yea, if it is a script. like i said, i dont know how d-i builds the fstab
[22:12] <aesthesia> murlidhar: google could probably tell you
[22:12] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: and I think only root can change users' groups
[22:12] <murlidhar> okies aesthesia ty
[22:12] <murlidhar> i will now
[22:12] <crashoverride300> so i do i know it is safe
[22:12] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: tools such as rkhunter and chkrootkit can detect rootkits, but they sometimes retuen false positives
[22:12] <lstarnes> *return
[22:12] <stroyan> pianistbaby: If you look at the full output of "sudo lshw" you could see what SATA or IDE (or SCSI) controllers are present.
[22:13] <crashoverride300> so what is the 1 best
[22:13] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: both
[22:13] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: the two should be used together.  Sometimes one will return a false positive (saying something is a rootkit when it isn't)
[22:14] <TheCheeze> stroyan, i did the cat filename.* and it is scrolling a bunch of wierd symbols. is this normal?
[22:14] <crashoverride300> ok but i need one that will tell the truth
[22:14] <guntbert> !best | crashoverride300
[22:14] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: that's why you use both
[22:14] <crashoverride300> how do i tell
[22:14] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: it is impossible for anything to be 100% accurate
[22:15] <jMyles> TheCheeze: What kind of file?
[22:15] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: carefully read the results and check things for yourself
[22:15] <stroyan> TheCheeze: You need to cat those files into another file.  Something like  "cat bigfile.mp3.* > bigfile.mp3".  Then use the new file.
[22:15] <TheCheeze> .001 file parts
[22:15] <pianistbaby> stroyan: is IDE/SCSI newer than SATA for hard drives?
[22:15] <zagabar1> http://pastebin.com/m492725b5 I get this when starting a fresch installed ircd-hybrid. What can be the issue?
[22:15] <TheCheeze> oh
[22:15] <jMyles> pianistbaby: No.  I love your nick by the way.
[22:16] <lstarnes> zagabar1: try sudo /etc/init.d/ircd-hybrid start
[22:16] <pianistbaby> ide/SCSI is older than SATA, jMyles?
[22:16] <crashoverride300> is it good to make sure that everthing is update right
[22:16] <crashoverride300> and how
[22:16] <pianistbaby> jMyles: (why do you love my nick? Do you like pianos or do you like babies?)
[22:16] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: sudo apt-get update && sudp apt-get upgrade
[22:17] <lstarnes> crashoverride300: replace sudp with sudo, it was a typo
[22:17] <jMyles> pianistbaby: That's correct.  SATA is newer.  I love both pianos and babies.  :-)
[22:17] <TheCheeze> still scrolling a bunch of weird symbols...
[22:17] <TheCheeze> might try a 7zip instead
[22:17] <stroyan> pianistbaby: IDE and SCSI are older than SATA.  There is no commonly used newer disk type.  Firewire is less common.  Datacenter servers use more exotic types like "Serial Attach SCSI(SAS)" or "Fibre Channel".
[22:17] <pianistbaby> can someone take a look at my lshw report and tell me whether i have a SATA hard drive or SCSI/IDE hard drive inside? http://pastebin.ca/1536905
[22:18] <datta> i think i have just deleted by alsa mixer from my system, when i click on the volume controller at the top of the desktop and go to volume control, it says Failed to start Volume Control: Failed to execute child process "gnome-volume-control" (No such file or directory)
[22:18] <lstarnes> pianistbaby: it looks like SATA
[22:18] <pianistbaby> lstarnes: thanks. Yes!!! I can use a SATA hard drive that my friend gifted me with!!!
[22:18] <datta> can anyone tell me how to get this back? is it the alsa mixer that is not here? and if yes how do i get that back?
[22:19] <lstarnes> pianistbaby: there is a chance that it could be ide
[22:19] <lstarnes> pianistbaby: almost all recent computers have sata
[22:19] <hwilde> pianistbaby, open up the computer and look at the connectors
[22:19] <pianistbaby> lstarnes: why a chance? Can't we make sure
[22:19] <pianistbaby> hwilde: that's what I wanted to avoid doing. 8-)
[22:19] <thanatos> I'm having trouble using vpn (pptp) with my Ibex machine.  It works fine on my debian lenny, and the same account settings do nothing in ubuntu 8.10. In fact, when I use network manager and click on the vpn account it does not even appear to try to connect.  Whenever I try and change the settings to use mpee encryption and then hit ok, when I bring back preferences that choice is no longer highlighted.  Anyone know what might be going on?
[22:19] <lstarnes> pianistbaby: I don't have the full specifications for your hardware or physical access to it
[22:19] <stroyan> pianistbaby: Line 197 shows an unused SATA connector
[22:19] <datta> in the ubuntu forums someone had posted that this would help sudo apt-get install gnome-media  will it? please someone help me
[22:20] <pianistbaby> I remember giving away ATA/IDE hard drives coz they were incompatible with my comp.
[22:20] <pianistbaby> is SATA = ATA/IDE?
[22:20] <pianistbaby> or is ATA/IDE = SCSI?
[22:20] <lstarnes> pianistbaby: IDE is usually PATA
[22:20] <pianistbaby> PATA? huh?
[22:20] <lstarnes> pianistbaby: SATA and PATA are probably both ATA
[22:20] <pianistbaby> i see.
[22:20] <TheCheeze> that seems to be working better
[22:20] <MaGicMaX> hey guys, i was wondering if there was a way to make map my mouse wheel tilt buttons (left/right) to switch between workspaces?
[22:20] <lars_bauer> Search for at photo program which atomatic turn pictures to the right position ?
[22:21] <mscyber07> hey, can anyone tell me which driver goes with my hard drive?
[22:21] <mscyber07> I have a Dell Latitude XT.
[22:21] <stroyan> pianistbaby: You could add a second SATA drive, (if you have the space and power and cooling for it.)
[22:21] <lars_bauer> 4
[22:21] <pianistbaby> cooling? I thought only processors get a fan. stroyan.
[22:22] <pianistbaby> the only cooling my current hard drive gets is room temperature.
[22:22] <stroyan> pianistbaby: You only have 1GB of RAM in there.  It could be very nice (and cheap) to at least double that.
[22:22] <pianistbaby> stroyan: how much?
[22:22] <pianistbaby> i'm a student
[22:22] <pianistbaby> my comp was a gift and the 2nd hard drive was a gift
[22:23] <MaGicMaX> hey guys, i was wondering if there was a way to map my mouse wheel tilt buttons (left/right) to switch between workspaces? Im assuming the easiest way would be to make the left tilt produce the CTRL+ALT+Left arrow key keyboard command, and so on with the right.
[22:23] <stroyan> pianistbaby: A system can overheat from adding hard drives.  It is a question of case fan and airflow.  Cheap power supplies can also get flakey when adding more hardware.
[22:23] <mscyber07> can anyone tell me which driver goes with my hard drive?
[22:23] <pianistbaby> stroyan: i see. i didn't know that.
[22:23] <mscyber07> I have a Samsung Model HS 122JC
[22:23] <pianistbaby> stroyan: oh, yes. case has a case fan!. 8-) we're good. 8-)
[22:23] <xangua> MaGicMaX: maybe with mouse gestures - easystroke
[22:24] <DasEi> mscyber07: harddrives are usually found by hal, any special device ?
[22:24] <datta> good i just reinstalled by gnome volume and fixed it
[22:24] <mscyber07> Ubuntu 9.04 (the text version) recognizes that there's one present, and
[22:24] <mscyber07> gives me a list to choose from.
[22:25] <DasEi> mscyber07: so it's detected
[22:25] <zagabar1> Okay, when trying to connect to my ircd-hybrid server, I get a "23:24 -!- Irssi: Unable to connect server www.pallkars.net port 6667 [Connection refused]
[22:25] <zagabar1> ". Do I need to change something to be able to connect to it?
[22:25] <mscyber07> what's hal?  ...yes.
[22:25] <mscyber07> it detects it, then asks which driver suits it.
[22:25] <MaGicMaX> xangua ive installed easystroke, not sure how it works though
[22:25] <mscyber07> I don't know, and I'm not sure where to go to find out.
[22:25] <DasEi> !who | mscyber07 ; hardware abstraction layer
[22:26] <xangua> MaGicMaX: the easystroke incluided in jaunty has a bug, you first need to create a global gesture to work
[22:26] <DasEi> mscyber07: where do you hang then ?
[22:26] <mscyber07> !DasEi what do you mean where do I hang?
[22:26] <xangua> MaGicMaX: you could try the ppa from easystroke in luanchpad, this bug is removed
[22:26] <MaGicMaX> xangua: i installed one from the repositories
[22:27] <datta> did anyone record with audacity and how? the sound comes up but it is a lot less than the regualar way
[22:27] <hwilde> datta, alsamixer
[22:27] <MaGicMaX> xangua: i added the source from the launchpad PPA
[22:27] <guntbert> zagabar1: "your server" is running on your local machine?
[22:27] <datta> hwilde what aabout it?
[22:27] <DasEi> mscyber07: you asked for a driver for your hardware, though ubuntu's kernel seems to fit it (the "!") triggers the channel ro-bot
[22:27] <hwilde> datta, go to the recording tab and check the volume
[22:28] <zagabar1> guntbert: No, "my server" is running on my ubuntu server machine.
[22:28] <zagabar1> :P
[22:28] <mscyber07> DasEi: the kernel fits, I'm just not sure WHICH driver goes with my hardware.
[22:28] <xangua> MaGicMaX: then try it, easystroke is great!! :D
[22:28] <datta> hwide one is capture which is at full and the other is capture 1 which is in 0
[22:28] <hwilde> zagabar1, can you telnet to that ip and port
[22:29] <mscyber07> DasEi: I don't want to screw it up by giving it the wrong one.
[22:29] <guntbert> zagabar1: are you sure the irc server is running?
[22:29] <zagabar1> hwilde: i have never used telnet, only ssh
[22:29] <zagabar1> guntbert: no, how can I get sure?
[22:29] <hwilde> zagabar1, type in   telnet ip port     see if it's even listening
[22:29] <MaGicMaX> xangua: i have version 0.4.9 i see the icon on my panel but all it does is let me disable it or see info
[22:29] <DasEi> mscyber07: you can't, you can choose partitoning at install, not kernelbehavior
[22:29] <datta> hwide what does it mean when one is at nothing and the other is at the full maximum?
[22:29] <xangua> MaGicMaX: LEFT clic on it
[22:30] <MaGicMaX> xangua: how do i go about doing it
[22:30] <zagabar1> hwilde: I did it in cmd, and I got "could not open connection"
[22:30] <mscyber07> DasEi: I've got the install going right now.  Would you like to private chat and walk me thru it?
[22:30] <MaGicMaX> xangua: ok i got it heh
[22:30] <guntbert> zagabar1: on the server type lsof -i | grep 6667, is there an output?
[22:31] <MaGicMaX> xangua: could u guide me through doing it?
[22:31] <zagabar1> guntbert: no output
[22:31] <DasEi> mscyber07: I won't stay up long (up since more then 35 h), why private, it's common sense here
[22:31] <enduser000> so I have a gateway p-6831fx with the latest updates (2.6.28-15-generic headers) in ubuntu 9.04 and the sound doesn't work. it does work, however when you plug in headphones
[22:31] <enduser000> does anyone know how I can fix that?
[22:31] <guntbert> zagabar1: then its either not running or listening on another port
[22:31] <hwilde> zagabar1, ok so you either have a network related issue or the server is not listening
[22:32] <balleyne> is there a command to print out my username?
[22:32] <xjunior> hi, I'm trying to plug my notebook on my tv, via RGB, but when ubuntu starts, and GDM login screen pops up, I can see it on my TV, after I login, the TV gets blank and a "no signal" message appear. Can somebody try to help me?
[22:32] <Gillok2> Anyone knows how to show the 4 desktop icons in the tray of xfce ?
[22:32] <enduser000> balleyne: whoami
[22:32] <DasEi> mscyber07: http://www.howtoforge.com/the-perfect-desktop-ubuntu-9.04
[22:32] <balleyne> enduser000: ah, right -- thanks!
[22:32] <enduser000> np
[22:32] <zagabar1> guntbert: how do I start the server then, to make sure it is running? In the config file I saw that it listened on 6666-6669. I don't think it is a network related problem. My forum,minecraft server, etc is working
[22:32] <alberto_> hey guys somebody know where are the wireless's network passkey stored in ubuntu?
[22:32] <brynjarh> can I replace a string of text in 10 text files all at once from the command line? (just like search and replace but on many files at once)
[22:33] <enduser000> so I have a gateway p-6831fx with the latest updates (2.6.28-15-generic headers) in ubuntu 9.04 and the sound doesn't work. it does work, however when you plug in headphones

[22:36] <Psi-Jack> [ 115.340885] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [f7076f18] 'on'
[22:36] <xjunior> hi, I'm trying to plug my notebook on my tv, via RGB, but when ubuntu starts, and GDM login screen pops up, I can see it on my TV, after I login, the TV gets blank and a "no signal" message appear. Can somebody try to help me?
[22:36] <TheCheeze> i have 64bit os installed, but the Xserver settings only go to 24bit?
[22:36] <JazzDrummerGirl> enduser000: i think cheese was the one i wanted to use. i am getting errors tho :/
[22:36] <Psi-Jack> I keep getting that in my syslog every 10 seconds, and I'm trying to stop it properly.
[22:37] <TheCheeze> xjunior- what vid card drivers?
[22:37] <xjunior> TheCheeze, intel
[22:37] <Psi-Jack> I can't seem to echo anything into /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/trip_points, it just gives me "No such device" errors.
[22:37] <alberto_> enduser000 thanks, now i have another question, how do i know what the passkey is when all i see is "2343bec...."?
[22:37] <stroyan> TheCheeze: 64-bit is the size of an address pointer.  24-bit is the number of bits representing one pixel of color.  8 red + 8 green + 8 blue
[22:37] <TheCheeze> damn, dont know how to help ya then. i know how to do it with nvidia
[22:37] <sanjay> gudmorning to all
[22:38] <TheCheeze> stroyan- so there really isnt much of a graphical difference in 64bit? i havent noticed one
[22:38] <stager> anyone know how to get quicktime working for firefox? So i can watch apple trailers. Im using Jaunty.
[22:38] <sanjay> I'm using xubuntu 9.04.. can i use yahoo messenger with voice and video chat
[22:38] <guntbert> zagabar1: it looks like you have a problem in the server config, try to look into the log files (/var/log/syslog or /var/log/irc... or so), I have unfortunately no experience with irc servers so please put further questions to the channel again
[22:38] <TheCheeze> quicktime is the devil
[22:38] <stroyan> TheCheeze: There is no graphical difference at all from 32-bit vs 64-bit pointers.
[22:38] <enduser000> JazzDrummerGirl: what errors are you getting? have you tried installing it in the command line (sudo apt-get install cheese). you could also try to get the dependencies with sudo apt-get build-dep cheese
[22:39] <enduser000> alberto_: yeah, that tells you the user, not the password
[22:39] <mogi22> hey the 2 major formats for mail are mbox and maildir, right?
[22:39] <mscyber07> I just fixed it!!
[22:39] <stager> what plugin should i use to watch .mov files from apple?
[22:39] <TheCheeze> stroyan to then what really IS the difference? sorry, before this i used windows MCE 32bit
[22:39] <zagabar1> guntbert: Okay, I will. Thanks anyway. =)
[22:39] <guntbert> zagabar1: you are welcome - good luck
[22:40] <sanjay> I'm using xubuntu 9.04.. can i use yahoo messenger with voice and video chat in my xubuntu
[22:40] <xangua> stager: sudp apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras (only if you use ubuntu-Gnome) ; it installs adobe flash, gstreamer CODECS, rar unrar, etc
[22:40] <IdleOne> I just did a fresh re-install of 9.04. firefox-3.0 does not seem to have it's default icon. How can I get it back?
[22:40] <mogi22> is there any way an mbox file could be binary format (according to less or vim) but still functioning when i go to access it in the webmail?
[22:41] <xangua> IdleOne: reinstalling firefox
[22:41] <JazzDrummerGirl> enduser000: i get the eror W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/cheese/cheese_2.26.0-0ubuntu1_i386.deb Could not resolve 'wap.metropcs.net' i dont know what that means, can you please help? :)
[22:41] <xangua> sanjay: use yahoo yes, video/audio conversation no
[22:41] <IdleOne> xangua: I tried that and it did not re-install the icon
[22:41] <stroyan> TheCheeze: A 64-bit processor can access more RAM  and virtual address space.  The x86 processors also have more registers available when in 64-bit mode.  That might cause some performance improvement using an OS that is targeted at 64-bit mode.  It is not likely to be noticeable.
[22:41] <ngduo> i am getting a message saying that my email is no good...cant register, can anyone help
[22:41] <xangua> or at least i don know a client that it does sanjay
[22:42] <enduser000> JazzDrummerGirl: it sounds like you're not connected to the internet. can you get stuff in firefox?
[22:42] <sanjay> I installed wine  for xubuntu... but yahoo doen't work under wine in my xubuntu
[22:42] <TheCheeze> gotcha. so in idiot's terms... 64bit just runs a little smoother
[22:42] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: are you using a mobile broadband connection?
[22:42] <guntbert> ngduo: ask in #freenode please
[22:42] <stager> now firefox just crashes when i try to play .mov file from apple with restricted extras
[22:42] <ngduo> how do i get there
[22:43] <whiteshep> Question for the group.  I recently switched from Windows to Ubuntu server.  Problem is in Windows when a program calls a directory of files it gives them alphabetical.  But under Ubuntu it gives the files in random order.  This random order messes up some gallery scripts and programs when it comes to sorting.  Aside from having to reprogram everything.  Is there a way to tell Ubuntu's file system (using ext3 atm) to give prog
[22:43] <whiteshep> rams who request files in alphabetical order?
[22:43] <xangua> sanjay: using wine is not a guaranty all windows programs will work
[22:43] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: yes if that means i am using my phone for the internet, yes
[22:43] <leftyfb> where would I go to to get help with the people.ubuntu.com members sftp?
[22:43] <enduser000> I have a gateway p-6831fx with the latest updates (2.6.28-15-generic headers) in ubuntu 9.04 and the sound doesn't work. it does work, however when you plug in headphones
[22:43] <guntbert> ngduo: /join #freenode (with the / as first character on the line)
[22:43] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: but when i connect to the wifi at home, it still doesnt work tho
[22:44] <will-s> Jazz DrummerGirl: try gettin internet on your phone, the connection may be down there
[22:44] <sanjay> Xangua:then what to do to run yahoo messenger.. is ther any other option for yahoo messenger  for xubuntu
[22:44] <bucky> whiteshep: how about ls -r
[22:44] <TheCheeze> pidgin
[22:44] <xangua> sanjay: i use pidgin for conecting to yahoo network
[22:44] <TheCheeze> sanjay- pidgin runs the yahoo engine
[22:44] <TheCheeze> and should do all of your audio/video conference stuff
[22:45] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: try a different repo
[22:45] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: mhmm. i can use the internet with the phones browser
[22:45] <xangua> sanjay: but the pidgin included in jaunty has a yahoo bug, adding the repos will fix them
[22:45] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: what is a repo. how can i connect to it
[22:45] <sanjay> in pidgin, audio and video stuff is not working :(
[22:45] <xangua> sanjay: you can check the instructions in http://pidgin.im
[22:45] <whiteshep> bucky: Problem is it's different programs are expecting to find files in alphabetical order.  I'm not using LS.  Is there any file system that sorts requests in alphabetical order?
[22:45] <TheCheeze> all i did to fix the yahoo bug was assign a differenct messenger server
[22:46] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: go to System->Admin->Software sources, then "download from"
[22:46] <bucky> whiteshep: what language?
[22:47] <bucky> whiteshep: you're not using ls that rules out bash...  what language?
[22:48] <sanjay> xangua: thank u  boss!!
[22:48] <xangua> jum boss¿¿
[22:50] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: I can't reload the packages because it can't resolve wap.metropcs.net... In Network Proxy settings, I have just set it to a direct connection and it still does not work.
[22:50] <whiteshep> bucky: I'm using Freepascal Findfirst and FindNext functions.
[22:50] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: can you get normal internet?
[22:50] <bucky> whiteshep: so your gallery script is written in freepascal ?
[22:50] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: Yes, pidgin (irc) and firefox work. I am on it right now
[22:51] <stroyan> whiteshep: I have never seen a filesystem that sorts readdir() results alphabetically.  (Sorting alphabetically actually depends on the locale, which the kernel and filesystem don't actually know about.)
[22:51] <whiteshep> bucky: Mine is yes.
[22:51] <zagabar1> guntbert: I just discovered a thing with my ircd-hybrid server. It isn't shown in ps ux, and it has no ircd.conf. I searched the whole computer.
[22:51] <bucky> stroyan whiteshep that's why php has scandir
[22:51] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: Good point, which package manager are you using? Synaptic, or Add / Remove, or apt-get
[22:52] <bucky> whiteshep: you'll have to find the freepascal equiv of scandir
[22:52] <guntbert> zagabar1: how did you install it? and try ps aux
[22:52] <doktoreas> hello everybody..is there a way to set max memory per process?
[22:52] <whiteshep> stroyan: Windows uses a b-tree for filename lookups.  So directory listings are alphabetical.  I was hoping Ubuntu could do this?
[22:52] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: All of them lol
[22:53] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: hmm.. 1 min, i will check if i can get updates..
[22:53] <GuidMorrow> how do I run !fsck on a vfat drive?
[22:53] <whiteshep> bucky: I posted a week ago to their forums with no response.  But I'll google.  Perhaps someone has written something so I won't have to do it all by scratch.
[22:53] <JazzDrummerGirl> will-s: It works on all my friends' Ubuntu systems
[22:53] <zagabar1> guntbert: it wasn't in ps aux either (btw what does that do that differs from ps ux?) and I installed it by typing sudo apt-get install ircd-hybrid
[22:54] <bruno123> hi all, just to let you know that here in canada (and probably US) walmart sells a UVC webcam that appears to work well (so far) with ubuntu.  The webcam is a Lexma Panda 10c (there is a 9c for notebooks) and sells for $23.98 canadian.
[22:54] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: yep, i can get it
[22:54] <bruno123> I have gotten it to work with Ekiga and Skype

[22:55] <ToStItOs_> Does anyone know the channel Marcel Cagne is?
[22:55] <GuidMorrow> !fsck.vfat
[22:56] <guntbert> zagabar1: if I remember correctly the aux gives processes from "all" users, not just your own ones (type ps ux| wc, and the ps aux|wc)
[22:56] <ironfoot_495> xangua: when ever I try to use youtube for movies I get the error permissions denied at this location???

[22:57] <ToStItOs_> I cannot connect to Marcel Cagne Channel is there a way to talk to him?
[22:57] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: what about if you type us.archive.ubuntu.com into firefox?
[22:57] <guntbert> zagabar1: as for the server - you might get better answers in #ubuntu-server, or look into the docs (maybe in /usr/share/doc/irc...)
[22:58] <bucky> ToStItOs_: l  #wftlchat  on chat.marcelgagne.com

[23:01] <zagabar1> guntbert: Okay, I will go there.

[23:03] <chordogg> when i logout of tty1 for some reason ubuntu switches me back to tty7, when i really want to just stay in tty1...i know this seems trivial but it is annoying. is there any way around this?
[23:03] <snakedoc> Will iptables block a virtualbox bridged adapter?

[23:15] <will-s> JazzDrummerGirl: i cant work out what's wrong, youll have to ask someone else (or download it).
[23:15] <dividebyzer0> I have a question: I have a laptop that has a subwoofer and the volume isnt nearly as loud as it was on windows.. how do i go about fixing this?
[23:15] <Iyunkateus> the funny part about my problem is that whenever I first saw the error I tried a bunch of random key combinations trying to get process manager or whatever, but I just remembered today that I had set (or it is that way by default, I don't remember) Ctrl-T as a shortcut for terminal
[23:15] <JazzDrummerGirl> bucky: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ is mine right now

[23:17] <b3rz3rk3r> dividebyzer0, well yes, but have you been into prefs there and enabled all of your other channels?
[23:17] <dividebyzer0> I only have the master channel listed
[23:17] <craCkpot> where would be the ideal place to install firefox? (i'm using the package downloaded from getfirefox.com, not the packages listed in synaptic)?
[23:17] <kamen> I got an ubuntu problem with conecting to the interenet

[23:17] <b3rz3rk3r> dividebyzer0, a lot of them will be disabled and set to zero be default
[23:18] <craCkpot> Ben64: the packages it has is behind in terms of updates
[23:18] <dividebyzer0> b3rz3rk3r: which device do I use?
[23:18] <craCkpot> are behind*
[23:18] <Ben64> craCkpot: you could add the firefox ppa repository for brand new versions
[23:18] <Rapsodia> #dir
[23:18] <dividebyzer0> b3rz3rk3r: can I PM you?
[23:18] <b3rz3rk3r> dividebyzer0, right click on your volume icon, and choose prefs, then enable all your devices
[23:18] <b3rz3rk3r> dividebyzer0, sure
[23:18] <craCkpot> ooohhh, good call, Ben64!
[23:18] <Ben64> craCkpot: using the version from firefox.com could cause some issues
[23:18] <craCkpot> how so?
[23:18] <xangua> craCkpot: no they are not, just activate proposed and backport support
[23:18] <JazzDrummerGirl> bucky: Can't resolve wap.metropcs.net (I have GNOME set as direct connection though) Some index files failed to download you should run apt-get update (thats what i just ran lol)
[23:19] <kamen> If somone could spare a second, I could use some help with getting ubuntu to work on my computer
[23:19] <xangua> proposed and backport updates*** craCkpot
[23:19] <Ben64> craCkpot: they have a daily ppa if you really want the bleeding edge
[23:19] <bucky> JazzDrummerGirl:  i can't get to wap.metropcs.net in firefox because the site is down
[23:19] <Ben64> i'm using it, but there are a couple issues
[23:19] <craCkpot> i don't necessarily want their daily builds or anything
[23:19] <tplus> kamen i just set it up few minutes back on my computer
[23:19] <DasEi> !details | kamen
[23:20] <Ben64> craCkpot: what version of ubuntu you have?
[23:20] <xangua> Ben64 craCkpot there is also the mozilla security team ppa - https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-security/+archive/ppa
[23:20] <GuidMorrow> found some updates : http://imagebin.org/60407
[23:20] <xangua> stable packages of firefox
[23:20] <craCkpot> im using 9.04
[23:20] <Ben64> xangua: yeah, but that doesn't work for hardy
[23:20] <Ben64> craCkpot: it'll work for you
[23:20] <kamen> I have Jaunty I think
[23:20] <xangua> Ben64: then try ubuntuzilla
[23:20] <guntbert> xangua: are you sure that it is a good idea to suggest enabling "proposed"?
[23:20] <tplus> 9.04 = jaunty
[23:20] <Ben64> xangua: meh, i used the daily build, then locked version
[23:20] <tplus> is that right?
[23:21] <JazzDrummerGirl> bucky: It's port 3128 and yeah it is down... I want a direct connection though at least for right now. Apt-get is not recognizing I want a direct connection
[23:21] <Ben64> i haven't seen many issues
[23:21] <bucky> JazzDrummerGirl: your repos are all messed up... the non official ones change a lot
[23:21] <GuidMorrow> !repo
[23:21] <kamen> I have a usb wireless card that will show the networks but when I try to conect to one, it just tells me to try again, the network is protected and I have the key but that doesn't seem to make a difference
[23:21] <xangua> craCkpot: then try Ubuntuzilla (a script that downloads and automaticaly installs the latest firefox)
[23:21] <craCkpot> i installed package 3.5 from synaptic, but its still saying im using 3.0.13 which is the first version listed in synaptic
[23:22] <xangua> craCkpot: are you using jaunty ¿¿
[23:22] <JazzDrummerGirl> bucky: I have tried a a multitude of repos
[23:22] <craCkpot> yes i am

[23:25] <arquebus> gracias :)
[23:25] <tplus> bazhang : restart?
[23:25] <bucky> JazzDrummerGirl: are you really a girl?
[23:25] <tomekh> does synaptic have an option to show _only_ installed packages?
[23:26] <bazhang> tplus, no, just right click the channel name ( #ubuntu ) click hide joins/parts
[23:26] <bucky> tomekh: yes but easier yet dpkg -la
[23:26] <JazzDrummerGirl> bucky: Yes lol with a guy friend also trying to help me
[23:26] <bazhang> bucky, is that related to ubuntu somehow?
[23:26] <danbhfive> tomekh: its one of the options...

[23:27] <tomekh> bucky: I want to remove some packages with dependencies, browsing All packages is pain for my eyes. How can i do that? should i use aptitude or synaptic?
[23:27] <MaGicMaX> anyone here use Ktorrent? I got a question about plugins
[23:28] <Iyunkateus> tplus, just curious, why are you so concerned about your IP showing?
[23:29] <MaGicMaX> anyone here use Ktorrent? I got a question about plugins
[23:29] <bazhang> MaGicMaX, ask the question; if someone knows they will answer
[23:30] <bucky> tomekh: apt-get remove <package>  then apt-get autoremove will remove any packages that are not depended on anymore and apt-get remove --purge <package> will remove all files including configuration files like in /etc/
[23:31] <JazzDrummerGirl> bucky: I am going to restart now and see if it works.
[23:31] <MaGicMaX> ok, well i could like to have Ktorrent show the upload and download speed in real time on my panel, know if its possible?
[23:31] <MaGicMaX> would*
[23:32] <bucky> MaGicMaX: apt-cache show plasma-widget-ktorrent
[23:32] <MaGicMaX> like show the number on the panel permanently so i dont have to hover over the icon and wait a few secs everytime, id like to always look over and see the numbers
[23:32] <bryhoyt> is there any way to add custom fields to a file on the Ubuntu filesystem (ext3)? Eg I have a list of photos, and I want to add a short "description=my description" label to each one, at the filesystem level. Any ideas?

[23:58] <e370> < noob 2
[23:58] <Alexia> IceMan99999, no one here is likely to teach you hacking, (maybe script hacking),
