david_sebsebseb,  but you know how it goes first bad taste and then you dont want seconds01:02

vaiyTheSpazzz_,  do you use some sort of firewall / nat or traffic shaping stuff?01:02
coz_enthdegree,  good question   I dont know  generally  checking the site where you downloaded the source pacakge is how I would go about it01:03

TheSpazzz_vaiy : Nope, PRacticly a vanilla Ubuntu install01:03
david_voltagex,  im gonna try and scam some downloads from sprint i didnt want to be forced to do that01:03
sebsebsebdavid_:   Wine  or  Windows virtual machine, unless 3D Windows gaming or some such, but even that's getting there01:03

coz_enthdegree,  I also generally only install  pacakges that are not avialable for my distriburtioni01:04

coz_enthdegree,  I am also inclined to use svn or git revisions and versions rather than release appls01:04

KenSharpdoesn't look like that package does provide it afaics01:08

BioVoreubuntu_irc: and iso is a diskimage.. you have to put its contents on something.   having it as a file on your windows drive dose nothing..01:09
sebsebsebNoCode: x-updates ???01:09
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:   Im not sure you can do a 'wubi' type install from the iso file (you might be able to using daemon tools or alcohol 120%) But i would reccomdne you test Uubntu in Virtualbox, or do a 'normal' install instead of using WUBI01:09

sebsebsebNoCode: you can google for  2.6.30 ppa   or some such,  and  it will be on launchpad01:09
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  you can use Unetbootin to make a bootabel/installable 'flash drive' to install from and play with.01:10

ubuntu_ircDr_Willis: i do not want to use usb , trying to install from windows hard disk ? is there any way to do this?01:11
ubuntu_ircBioVore: is it must to have the alternate cd to install from hard disk ?01:11
miketoshlosher: possible that it is a screen thing, but it didn't happen in 8.04 or 8.1001:11
BioVoreubuntu_irc: if your tring to install ubuntu with that file.. you will need to put it on some outside media and boot from it..01:11
moleprincelosher: Thanks, I'll see if tcpdump turns anything up.01:11
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  use daemon tools or similer tools to 'mount' the iso to do a WUBI install.. and i DO NOT reccomend wubi..  You could use Virtualbox and run Ubuntu Inside a virtual machine.01:11

NoCodesebsebseb: Is it possible to get the same performance in Jaunty as in karmic? There's a significant difference. I'm thinking I may have to reformat a partition and reinstall Jaunty again and see how that goes.01:12
miketoshlosher: I see that in my future :-(01:12
ubuntu_ircBioVore: what do you mean by outside media?01:12
sebsebsebNoCode: a difference?01:12
bcjNoCode: In what way does the performance differ?01:12
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  thats not doable without burning to cd or flash media then. Unless yoy really know your way around viirtualbox. that 'might' be possible with virtualbox..01:12
sebsebsebNoCode: well  karmic has Ext4 by default,  and a proper kernel for it, where as  9.04  has  a kernel for it that may be a little hmm, but I never had problems with that,  and  Ext4 as optional file system01:13
bcjNoCode: Karmic uses ext4 by default - that might show some improvement.  In addition, I think there are yet more boot-time tunings.01:13
BioVoreubuntu_irc: the iso needs to be burned to a CD.. or you can create a usb bootable installer..  Theres your choices to install..01:13
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  if you had 2 hard drives.. 'unetbootn' can do a frugal type install to one hard drive you could then boot.. and install to the 2nd hard drive.01:13
ubuntu_ircDr_Willis: i got a link http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html , will it do the job?01:13
loshersebsebseb: the usual: sound, flash, wifi, other niggly little things that weren't the same that I now can't recall. Plus nothing in 9.04 I actually *needed*...01:13
NoCodebcj: Overall functionality. In hardy. normally I'd be getting around 400 FPS with glxgears. In harmic, I'm getting over 4000FPS.01:13
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  no idea. ive never heard of that url, or bothered to install that way. I use flash media. Much easier..01:14
bcjNoCode: That might be a driver that's not backported?01:14

BioVoreubuntu_irc: yeah.. technically you can do it that way..  not very simple straite forward though..01:14
sebsebseblosher: yeah  9.04  seems a bit pointless, except for the  Ext4,   but see my comment just now to NoCode01:14
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  that guide may or may not work.. i would guess most likely not. Too many little things to watch out for.01:15
sebsebseblosher: well  on the  other computer  8.10  and  the Internet won't work,  9.04 and karmic, no problem01:15
miketoshlosher: I can fix for a short time if I reset the screen resolution01:15
bcjPersonally, I use 8.10 and I'll wait for 9:1001:15
NoCodesebsebseb: I'm not using ext4 in Karmic atm. I'm not worried about boot time either. I just want usability like in karmic, but in Jaunty.01:15
sebsebseblosher: and 8.04  will work  for Internet on there01:15
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  if you want to test out ubuntu - try it in virtualbox for now if you cant burn to iso/flash drive01:15

NoCodeThere's a significant difference in Karmic, but it's just the sound that's boggled.01:18
BioVorelosher: ever looked at opensolars?01:18

sim_what program do i use to defrag ubuntu partitions01:32
steppenwolfthank01:32
sebsebseb!defrag | sim_01:32
ubottusim_: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this.01:32
Dominik1what does it mean if my files show up as bold and blue when I do ls -l ??01:32
Dr_Willissim_:  normally you dont.01:32
unopsim_, linux doesn't need defragmentation01:32
WebcamWonderunop: Umm... but, still, if other applications can access them (like nm-applet), can a script acess them/ (with the proper authentication that is)01:32
sim_why cos its modular?01:32
commander_does anyone have webcam support for pidigin?01:32
commander_pidign01:32
Dr_Willissim_:  'normally' you dont.  its how the fileystem is designed.01:33
commander_pidgin?01:33
xnoxi want to set up "mail" cli utility to send mail via my gmail smtp. the guides exim4-config via google are failing (no route to google host). please help (i want to start receiving unattended upgrades emails)01:33
sebsebsebcommander_: it doesn't have webcam suppourt at the moment, AMSN does though for MSN01:33
linuxlstarnes: that fixed the problem: allowing restricted URLs to be uncommented in the sources.list01:33
lstarnesDominik1: I think it means that the permissions on the file have the sticky bnit set01:33
commander_AMSN?!01:33
unopWebcamWonder, other applications do not access them - you provide your password to the keyring application, it computes a secure hash and compares that against the one stored in the keyring -- pretty much like how passwords are stored in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow01:33
Dominik1lstarnes right after the permissions there is a number what does that number mean?01:33
lstarnesDominik1: file size01:34
mds58is there a good yahoo messenger for ubuntu 9.04 that supports webcam??01:34
macomds58: kopete?01:34
WebcamWonderunop: Any documentation I can read up on?01:34
lstarnesDominik1: actually, i think it's something other than the sticky bit01:34
BlehkCan you redirect the stdout of an app when your daemonize it with &?01:34
losherxnox: I use ssmtp for exactly this purpose. 8 lines of config & it's done. It's only suitable for an always-connected machine though...01:34
Dominik1lstarnes one folder says 2 another says 3 and my files say 1, file size doesn't make sense ?01:34
lstarnesBlehk: yes, but put the & after the redirections01:34
Dr_WillisBlehk:  yes.. but i forget how. :)  seen it in the 'advanced bash guide' i recall01:34
linuxmds58: yahoo messenger makes a version of its software for linux i believe01:34
mds58maco kopete wont pick up the webcam without jasper and jasper seems to have been dicontinued01:34
Blehkawesome lstarnes  thanks01:35
Dr_WillisBlehk:  I ve seen examples that make use of &1 and &2  befor to do that in some special cases.01:35

nationhow can i open ports in ip tables01:36
Dr_WillisNeXstaR:  install conky, run 'conky' read conky web page/docs/faq for more info.01:36
linuxcoolkourt: you have to use ghex (hex editor) to read the binary hex bits in a *.bin file, or you could execute it with chmod +x filename.bin && chmod 755 filename.bin && ./filename.bin01:36
unopcoolkourt, what are you trying to accomplish by doing that?01:36

aj_444I decided to download ephiphany browser using the add/remove programs. I can't find it on my system though.01:42
coreymanmaco it's not just cabling problem?01:42
judgenaj_444, try starting a run dialogue and just type ephiphany01:43

Bolvadur(applications → internet → ephiphany)01:43
Dr_WillisNeXstaR:  try some diffrent conky configs..  you could of just pasted  that it was seg faulting.. No idea if the config is doing that or not.  Try some different configs like the ones i got on my page.01:43
aj_444judgen: is a run dialouge a terminal?01:44
judgenaj_444, in gnome press alt+f2 if you dont want to run via terminal.01:44
judgenaj_444, that will bring up a run dialogue.01:44
aj_444Bolvadur:  I checked. Its not in there.01:44
aj_444judgen: is there a way I can add an icon of epiphany to the desktop, or do I have to do the run dialouge thing each time?01:45
judgenaj_444, you can add it just like you make any other icon.01:45

linuxErilton: there has to be 10GB freely unpartitioned first, otherwise you have to resize your xp partition01:48
judgensim_, highly unlikely as linux was released in the 90ś01:48
Dr_WillisO__o:  'apt-cache search ccsm' or just tyr typing 'ccsm' and the shell should tell you01:48

bazhangknasto, apple changed something in the past couple of days; you need to wget the avatar or other trailers to watch them01:51

gkahlaDr_Willis, yeah, I've got the lzma stuff installed but there aren't any options to create *.xz files in Archive Manager01:52

detonationI have an EEE PC 1000he running an up to date Jaunty NBR. My problems started when I upgraded to the new "partial upgrade". Jaunty originally had a problem with Wifi stopping working after a suspend. I had it fixed, it's back again with a vengance. It kills the wifi card to the point it doesn't show up on ls pci anymore01:57
Dr_Willisubuntu_irc:  i would be suprised iF that guide worked.. plus If you booted an ISO from the hard drive that way. you would have to have your hard drives 'repartioned' to begin with  to install to  the new partitions. The installer would not be able to 'resize' the hard drive - since it would be in use.01:57

alankilau-noob-u: you can try apt-get autoremove, or install a package called debfoster, run it, select the packages you like and let it uninstall anything not pulled in as dependency02:24
losheru-noob-u: the trick is knowing what you don't need....02:25
alankilacareful with debfoster, though, keep the foo-desktop package you have, and probably ubuntu-minimal or ubuntu-standard02:25
Dr_Willisu-noob-u:  most of that is proberly some cache/tmp stuff.. Unless you REALLY started installing things. :)02:25
miguelonnnnyeah thanks losher, i know all that, but they use programs like syslinux , what i want to know is how to put the necessary files at beggining of the disk, and how to set the path so when i boot from usb it know where kernel binary and all that exactly is02:25

It kills the wifi card to the point it doesn't show up on ls pci anymore and have to reboot to windows and enable it in device manager then reboot to linux. Any ideas?02:30

Dominik1nsp: http://pastebin.com/m6810008902:37
Dominik1nsp: external is giving me problems all the others are cooperating02:37
u-noob-ualankila: from my reading `man debfoster`, you need to be using it since the initial installation to benefit from it. I'm not sure if debfoster helps if your system is already full of junk you don't use.02:37
alankilau-noob-u: no. When you run it, it will traverse the package dependency chains and ask you about every package not required by another package.02:38
etyrnal_any alias experts here?02:38
Dominik1nsp: that is a fat32 mounted, btw02:38
alankilaif you say no, it considers that package lost and reconsiders the packages it depended on until it has complete picture of all you want to keep in the system.02:38
quantumrightfootmanda, have you configured /etc/network/interfaces02:38
rightfootmandaquantum: yes02:38
etyrnal_i want to create an alias, and i generally no how, but i need to create one that has a ' in it02:38
alankilaafter that it will apt-get --purge remove every package not required by another package. You must know what packages to keep or you will probably lose your system. Don't uninstall bootloader, kernel, or the ubuntu metapackages.02:38
quantumcomment everything out except the loopback02:39
alankilayou can stop the questions at any time by either q or x. q loses your decisions, x applies the decisions so far.02:39
nspDominik1: What you have is fat32 which does not have capabilities to assign  file permissions.  If you reformat it to ext3 or some filesystem that has capabilities to assign file permissions, it will work.02:39
Dominik1nsp so I can't share a fat32 file system with samba?02:39
mdgWhat mobile broadband works with Ubuntu?02:39
alankilaonce you have made a set of decisions, debfoster -a shows them, and you can manipulate that list by stating something like "debfoster foo-". It will remove the package "foo". You can add a new package to the list by invoking it without hyphen.02:40
u-noob-ualankila: do you end up with a list of packages that are not needed, or does debfoster go ahead and just delete stuff? I'd be more comfortable passing the list to apt-get myself.02:40
alankiladebfoster goes ahead and not only removes but *purges* the packages. It destroys configuration or any other data the package knows about as well.02:41
alankilathere may be a way to run it such that it outputs just the package list. Don't know, never used it that way.02:41
nspDominik1: Well, you should be able to, but since it is a removable drive, well, not sure how to negoiate the configuration, because it's not always going to be mounted on the same mount piont each time... but well, I don't know, just never tried to use samba to share removable drives, just have no experience with it.02:41

nspDominik1: Because it is a removable disk, it gets mounted automatically with plugdev and, well, it is set up to be for the local user.  I suppose you can create your own mount point for it and mount it manually and that way you could specify how it gets mounted.02:45

detonationI have an EEE PC 1000he running an up to date Jaunty NBR. My problems started when I upgraded to the new "partial upgrade". Jaunty originally had a problem with Wifi stopping working after a suspend. I had it fixed, it's back again with a vengance. It kills the wifi card to the point it doesn't show up on ls pci anymore and have to reboot to windows and enable it in device manager then reboot to linux. Any ideas?03:10
TH3RDWARnsp: this is out of the box, but I'll check. Thanks for the suggestions.03:10
DeathstrikeogFollow my instructs 3dwar and it should work.03:10
lenny0815Barridus: That was my main disappointment. Evolution does *not* support Exchange. At least not Exchange server 2007. So I was stuck to IMAP anyhow.03:10
Barriduslenny0815, works great with exchange 2k303:10
losherarooni-mobile: see the above ubottu message re: bum. Can I say "bum" on this channel?03:11
bboruCyL: ah.  but you want it to give you the option upon boot to choose which os right?  it would require changing the grub loader somehow.03:11
danbhfivedetonation: have you tried LBM?  or the array.org kernel?03:11
arooni-mobilemy load on my 2.0ghz core 2 duo t61 with 2GB of RAM is 1.83 ... do i want load below 1?  and if so, how would i achieve that?  what does load measure?  how do i see a view that sorts processes by cpu (or whatever creates load)?  how do i know whether load is disc writes or ram issues or cpu issues?03:11
detonationNot sure what LBM is, but haven't tried the array kernel03:11
lenny0815Barridus: Well, you are stuck to a sluggish buggy pos mailer then.03:12
CyLbboru: I don´t need to... I can choose what item to boot directly from the bios options...03:12
macoarooni-mobile: top, and press capital P to sort by CPU usage03:12

alanpanwhen i load up my audacious in terminal it says 'failed to load external entity ', but the audacious still shows up on my screen. Does anyone have any idea?03:13
detonationIt was working 100%, I loaded up linux yesterday and saw there were a few updates. I did them including a "partial" that upgraded the kernel. that's when my issues arrose danbhfive03:13
lenny0815Barridus: I uninstalled it, when it started messing up mail folders, deleting mails and showing unremovable double mails in unexpected places.03:13
nspTH3RDWAR: You could show us your config file.  pastebinit /etc/network/interfaces03:13
Barriduslenny0815, might wanna be a little less harsh on software, never know when user123 is a programmer03:13
bboruCyL: guess i'm not understanding.  if you're installing both jaunty and another os on the same media, and you can only select one thing to boot from, how can you select it from the bios?  it would default to the first one.03:13
poseidonDoes ndiswrapper only take .inf files?03:14
losherBarridus: a pox on all of them....03:14
danbhfivedetonation: well, you might as well try the array.org kernel.  Unfortunately, I don't think there is much else to do besides running a different kernel and filing a bug03:14
TH3RDWARnsp: yea, http://pastie.org/59734603:14
DeathstrikeogGoodnight all hope to see you guys later.03:14
lenny0815Barridus: Well, if an Evolution programmer listens in, he should be ashamed of the thing :)03:14
CyLbboru: i´m not installing them on the same media... windows goes on the hard disk, ubuntu goes on the sd card...03:14
mdgposeidon: yes03:14
lenny0815Barridus: To say it positive ... Evolution has great potential for future improvement.03:15
detonationWill do danbhfive. I've been googling everything possible, every error that i've seen is in regards to different symptoms but same outcome03:15

nspTH3RDWAR: It may be called network-manager-gnome03:15
poseidonmdg, not currently03:16
bboruCyL: and you want to put ubuntu remix, another os, on the sd card with jaunty? you would need to change the bootloader on the sd card to give you a selection menu.03:16

icerootzruty: try using TLS03:17
mdgyou need ndisgtk for ndiswrapper to work03:17
CyLbboru: Bios onption would let me choose wich device to boot, so no need for brub or lilo or whatever03:17
sebsebsebShingi: is it a netbook?03:17
sebsebsebShingi: if it's not a netbook, you put on the desktop03:17
kevdogmdg: you never need ndisgtk03:17

ubottuShingi: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more03:18
sebsebsebShingi: and good idea to do that for the ISO03:18
CyLbboru: the card already have a remix version, but is the "live" version, I wnat to make it the definitive version03:18
mdgkevdog: never heard that before....03:18
TH3RDWARnsp: none of those are installed :P I'll do some more searching around.03:18
detonationCyL, I'd go with grub. I haven't seen a bios intelligent enough to load several os's.03:18
detonationWhat's the issue with installing grub?03:18
poseidonLet me see if I can't mount the cdrom and find the .inf file03:18
kevdogmdg: why do you need a gui front end (which is OK), for a command line program?  Just use the command line03:18
ShingiThanks.03:18
justin__please help I have restarted a number of times and pulled up the boot option and every time it only shows the mac built in drive and not the portable even though the ubuntu bootloader is on there03:19
bboruCyL: ok. so do you need to know how to format the sd and make it bootable with jaunty on it?03:19
nspTH3RDWAR: sudo grep -r eth0 /etc/03:19
sebsebsebShingi: no probs03:19
mdgkevdog: could you walk poseidon through setup?  I want to watch and learn (I have INX which uses CENI but it worked oob)03:19
nspTH3RDWAR: or eth1 or eth2  which ever it is..03:19
CyLdetonation: no issue, it´s just that i don´t need it... my bios wont let me choose various oses, but would allow me to correctly choose the device which I want to boot... if i have only one os per device, no problem in using the mbr to boot the first poartition on each one03:19
CyLbboru: yes03:19
detonationCyL, grub has additional uses though. You can easily recover broken linux installations as well03:20
kevdogmdg: OK - Just depends if he has the .inf and driver files03:20
justin__so I have a mac and I just loaded ubuntu on a portable hard drive but when I pull up the boot options on my mac it never gives me the hard drive as a choice for booting only the built in hard drive any ideas???03:20
ericPif some dork (me, as it turns out) scribbled fire all over his screen, how could he get rid of it?03:20
kevdogmdg: Its been awhile for me for ndiswrapper -- what chipset are we talking about here anyway?03:20
mdgkevdog: he said he has the windows install CD03:20
ericPi didn't find compiz in any of system::preferences, system::administration, or applications::system tools03:20
sekyourboxWhats a good DVD burning software for ubuntu.  Brasero isn't doing it for me.03:20
kevdogmdg: What is the chipset?03:20
detonationericG, run a command called ccsm (compiz setting manager)03:21
bboruCyL: i've used a few differnt utilities.  the HP one works for me.  do a google search for 'make bootable usb HP'03:21
sfynsekyourbox: try k3b03:21
sebsebsebsekyourbox: k3b03:21

sekyourbox2 votes for k3b03:21
mdgkevdog: dlink dwa-13003:21
bboruthen just extract the ubuntu iso onto the iso after03:21
mdgposeidon: is that correct?03:21
icerootsekyourbox: three :)03:21
kevdogposeidon: what is the chipset of the device -- not the brand name03:21
sebsebseb!best |  sekyourbox03:21
ubottusekyourbox: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.03:21
loshersekyourbox: k3b03:21
bboruonto the sd that is...03:21
CyLdetonation: the "broken linux installation" will be on a sd card... it is much easir just to get the sd card out of the reader, um recover it from a running installation03:21
kevdogposdeidon:  This would be found by listing lspci -nnm03:21
detonationvery true cyl, I ran Ubuntu like that for a while on my netbook before upgrading the harddrive03:22
TH3RDWARnsp: looks like it was pointing to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf:#  interface "eth0"; I removed dhcp3-client. Hope that does it03:22
sekyourbox12.7MB oh my god!03:22
mdgkevdog: what's -nnm?03:22
sekyourboxone for windows would be like 312.7mb03:22
CyLbboru: i´ve done it (except that I have extracted the img not the iso)03:22
TH3RDWARnsp: I appreciate it03:23
kevdogmdg: man lspci03:23
nspTH3RDWAR: One thing that I think is convenient is to just leave it set to dhcp and configure the router to give that MAC address the IP of your choosing.03:23
bboruCyL: did you wipe it first?03:23
CyLbboru: yes03:23
sekyourboxWhat is the purpose of the eyes at the corner of the screen? for fun?03:23
bboruCyL: so will it just not boot or...03:23
nspTH3RDWAR: And as I said before, look at the entry in  the config file and make sure it's not still saying auto03:24
loshersekyourbox: so the little guy inside your pc who does all the work can see what he's doing...03:24
nspTH3RDWAR: in /etc/network/interfaces03:24
CyLsekyourbox: they´re watching so you don´t move your pointer out of the screen ;)03:24
mdgkevdog: -n is vendor - m is PCI data, whats the second n?03:24
TH3RDWARnsp: yea that would work. I'm just runninga little ubuntu server vm so I'm trying to keep it static on the box. I'll double check interfaces.03:24
justin__so I have a mac and I just loaded ubuntu on a portable hard drive but when I pull up the boot options on my mac it never gives me the hard drive as a choice for booting only the built in hard drive any ideas???03:25
sekyourboxI let him chill there, I usually dont like things like that03:25
ctmjrericG: if you have not changed the defaults then winkey+shift+c03:25
CyLbboru: it booted perfectly, but when I choose the manual partition, it won´t let me choose the sd card ad the target "disk", only my hard disk03:25
poseidonkevdog, don't see anything pertaining to d-link when I do lspci -nnm03:26

macoSerialKiller: youre using ubuntu just now, right? you should be able to right click the cd and tell it to copy to image03:29
CyLbboru: so you´ve installed something like vmware, chose the sd card as the hard disk of the virtual machine, and installed unr on the virtual machine?03:29
hcooki've also used a variety of kernel arguments to no avail03:29
SerialKillerdont have that option03:29

bazhangerr k9copy03:30
bboruyes, although i believe it was a flash drive (viewed the same by the system in my experience).  it was a shot in the dark but vmware allowed it.03:30

rabarHi, I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on an old IBM T42 Thinkpad things seem to be working OK, but I notice little performance sluggishness with the GUI..some times windows render slowly or menus take another 2-3 seconds to fade away. Is this a gfx drivers issue? I have an ATI Mobility7500 is there some set of drivers that I need to install?03:31
poseidonkevdog, well in /mnt/cd there is an autorun.inf, then in /mnt/cd/setup/Drivers/Drivers/Windows XP/ there is an .sys and .inf file03:31
sekyourboxI have mencoder, already converted to avi03:31
mdgjustin__: what's installed on your mac right now?  Does it see the usb drive?03:31
sekyourboxnow i want it on a dvd, but i guess ill see whats in the repository03:31
SerialKillermaco: try in ##windows??03:31
macoSerialKiller: no the k9copy thing03:32
poseidonSo would I use ndiswrapper -i file.inf file.sys?03:32
SerialKillermaco: oh i can get that in the add/remove right <03:32
macoSerialKiller: i think so03:32
SerialKillermaco: thnx03:32
CyLbboru: i´ll give it atry, although I think this option should be incorporated by default on the unr, qich seems to bee a pretty common use for netbook owners, as I´m seeing...03:32
bboruCyL: the drivers that vmware (hyper-v etc) use are allowed to be put into physical systems. you may have a few driver updates but it will def boot.03:32
bboruCyL: agreed.03:32
justin__just standard OS 10, it does see all the drives. The drive I am trying to boot from is  half a mac drive and the other half is ubuntu linux03:33
SerialKillermaco: when i right click the cd it just opens it03:34

justin__yes correct03:34

alanpani tried gedit, it is not working.04:49
icerootalanpan: not working is a good description04:49
arandalanpan: those are binary files, if you want to view the source code, you'll have to get the source code package for the concerned binary, in the case of cp I think that package would be coreutils so "apt-get source coreutils" would get it for you.04:49
scott_ino2nano that shiz04:49
alanpaneven vi giving me unreadable words04:49

scott_ino2Raja8183, internal cdrom or usb04:54
linuxRaja8183: you can install ubuntu from a usb thumb drive if you get CD errors upon installation of ubuntu04:54
Raja8183I have tried installation by making many different copies of the installation iso04:55
xsebsxlosher: can you point out towards the mac download page?04:55
myselfwhere are the actual folders located for the Applications menu????04:55
Raja8183ok....whould i be unpacking the iso?04:55
arandalanpan: you could use "dpkg -S /bin/#command#" (where #command# is the one you're interested in) to check which package a specifik file belongs to, if you get the source for that package, you should get the source for that binary application as well ;)04:55
scott_ino2Raja8183, is this a usb cdrom?04:55
arquebusmyself- /usr/bin04:55
Raja8183no...a internal one04:56
losherxsebsx: not sure what you're asking...04:56
Raja8183linux: yes it is...just got it a week ago04:56
xsebsxlosher: the link to where i can dl the image for ubuntu to install on a mac04:56
scott_ino2Raja8183, in that case i would try the usb drive route04:56

losherxsebsx: sorry, no idea. Most mac users prefer to stay with OSX04:57
linuxcan someone link Raja8183 to the USB Ubuntu boot webpage?04:57

buckyalanpan, you most certainly already have it installed dpkg -L coreutils05:06
linuxResistol: GoToMyPC is a corporation that makes it easy, its not free, but i believe they make a client for linux05:06

scott_ino2Resistol, check out yuguu05:06
xsebsxhow do i check which DE i am using? as in which version i'm on? i know i'm  on kde but i don't know which05:06

devrethmanbut I can cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp and get noise05:37
theGeekPirateGoogle "ubuntu audio drivers"05:38
ugatyler_d: imagine one day you find that your /etc/shorewall/rules is changed and a new port added05:38
theGeekPirateI wouldn't remember lol05:38
theGeekPirateI never look at it05:38
ugatheGeekPirate: well, if the port has a coment saying #ffproxy, you should look at it05:39
tyler_duga: so it sounds like your on top of it... do you have ssh-server on there?05:39
ugatyler_d: yes, it's my local home machine though05:39

devrethmanOkay, I got it working by changing it in sound preferences to OSS Instead of ALSA, but that's rather kludgey05:46
joakoIs there an easy way to create a customized install disc? I would need to add some packages and hopefully set some default configurations05:47

aj_444how do I change my default browser in ubuntu?05:48
histocaddy: then you can sudo update-initramfs -y05:48
ugatyler_d: now that i remember, I *did* enable passwordless logins through keys, so that I could open tunnels and keep them alive automatically05:48
ugatyler_d: maybe that was my fault05:48
histoaj_444: you can use gconf-editor05:49
aj_444histo: is that in the terminal, or is that something I need to install?05:49
histoaj_444: you can launch it with terminal05:49
tyler_duga:  I love keys, and use them, however I recommend either keys or passwords not both05:49
aj_444histo: just type in gconf-editor?05:49
tyler_duga: and you can use a null ping to keep concurrent connections open ;)05:49
coz_babu_,  try this link and manually install  http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/132551/ca-certificates-java_20081028_all.deb05:49
histoaj_444: yes and i'll have to find the area hold on05:50
babu_coz_: ok05:50
aj_444histo: okay. I lauched it.05:50
ugatyler_d: well, yes, except it cannot automatically reconnect if connectoin is lost (machine goes down)05:50
legend2440aj_444: open system>preferences>preferred applications  choose web browser to use05:50
histoaj_444: let me look real quick hold up05:50

lateralus01i think my default window manager is stuck on compiz or something06:23
lateralus01i've heard you can change this with gconf06:23

lateralus01it turns out my xorg.conf is missing a module section06:36
albechluckyone: and the device does not appear like /dev/md0?06:36
crdlbGSF1200S: that's karmic (the in-development version); they may be working on squeezing it down to CD image size06:36
lateralus01cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep "module" produces nothing06:37
luckyonealbech, the array is gone06:37
luckyonealbech, I only have one of the drives now06:37
luckyonealbech, so I need to mount it somehow and get the data off of it06:37

GSF1200Sso all I can do is install jaunty, which doesnt support wireless or ethernet on my netbook.. thats really a bummer06:37
mikegerwitzIf that doesn't work, try uninstalling and reinstalling your video drivers. I'm unsure what to tell you from there :/06:38
albechluckyone: 2 sec.. logging in on a raid1 machine06:38

GSF1200Sit HAS to let you boot from USB.. are you kidding?06:42
lateralus01still had to go to effects and set to normal to fix screen06:43
mikegerwitzlateralus01: Alright; I guess try reinstalling your drivers (through the restricted driver manager if you used that, or manually otherwise). I'm not sure what else I can do to help.06:43
KelaosI'm going to try again but it only has one option in the boot order, and it's the HDD06:43
mikegerwitzlateralus01: I find `metacity --replace` easier than going into that visual effects dialog though, if needed.06:43
albechluckyone: and you want to retrieve the data that was on /dev/sda3 and /dev/sdb3??06:43
lateralus01alright06:43
mikegerwitzIt's late here though, have to get going. Hopefully that works out for you. Good luck06:44
lateralus01where is the default window manager saved tho?06:44
lateralus01in an X config file?06:44
luckyonealbech, I think the data on /dev/sda3 was formatted06:44
lateralus01cause maybe i can edit it06:44
crdlbGSF1200S: I think you can simply use the "USB Startup Disk Creator" to put that oversized iso on a usb disk06:44
GSF1200Skelaos- id let you borrow mine, but thats not possible. THat sucks man06:44
albechluckyone: did you try just to mount /dev/sdb3 and see if the data is there?06:44
luckyonealbech, mounting it failed06:44
KelaosYeah I know, I'm trying to figure out how to work it otherwise...06:44

innocivhangs, grwity07:41
innomenFlannel, of course, my machine is hung at boot there is a hotkey that i can press that brings up a lower level configurtation tool, i cantr recall it07:41
innocivgrawity*07:41
indus!fsck07:41
Flannelinnomen: You mean going to the Recovery console?07:41
ubottufsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot07:41
innomenFlannel, if i knew it's name i'd have googled :)07:42

brummbaerinnomen: ctrl-alt-f2?07:42
lstarnesinnociv: I don't recall there being a hotkey for that.  There are the magic Alt+SysRQ combinations, but those might not be what you're looking for07:42
Flannelinnomen: Well, recovery console doesn't require a hotkey, but I'm not really sure what you're talking about if it is a "hotkey"07:42
innomenbrummbaer, testing, one moment07:42
indusMTeck: what ado u mean mounted to? its my root partition ,internal HDD07:42
innocivK got it.07:42

innomenFlannel, you know where you hold like alt and shift and press something and spo,mething happens?07:42

lstarnes^Phantom^: #ubuntu-offtopic07:43
Flannelinnomen: As someone already mentioned the alt-sysrq stuff, but that won't get you to a console07:43
MTeckindus: from the live cd you can do fsck on that partition07:43
^Phantom^lstarnes, thankies :D07:43
innomenbrummbaer, ok that gave me a prompt07:43
innomenFlannel, define "console" please07:43

alkisgIf I wanted to temporarily disable a service like nfs-kernel-server so that it doesn't load at startup (but I don't want to remove the package) what file should I edit? Should I remove the symlink in /etc/rcS.d ?08:32

it-linuxhai all, I have a problem on remote desktop, Ive install tightvncserver on my Ubuntu server. And everything goes well using vncviewer, until I've write on terminal in remote server, the keyboard input is different, how to adjust it?08:32
AnonYmous2usacomputertec: there are guides for doing it using an existin xp system, but I don't have an XP system in a very long time08:32
grawityAnonYmous2: rcS.d is for single-user mode, you probably need rc6.d or something like that... I don't remember which is the default runlevel.08:32

detonationAfter updating the kernel (through update manager) on Jaunty I have an issue with my wireless card going completely dead after a suspend. After a reboot lspci doesn't pick it up, I have to boot to windows and use the hotkeys to reenable it before linux sees it again. Using ath9k on Jaunty NBR and eee-acpi-utilities. All was well before I updated the kernel.08:35
detonationAny ideas?08:35
MrEgg964b3rz3rk3r: hi! You here?08:36
DJNoMaDI have a old computer that I put a 160 gb hdd in and the bios will not work on that big of hdd "grub error 15" I believe it was,is there a way around that?08:39
nspdetonation: It may have been dissabled before the last boot and just reverts to dissable now.  That is a remote possiblity. but...08:39
nspdetonation: If you still have the old kernel, just boot to it and use it until the problem gets fixed later on.08:39
detonationNSP, I can reboot linux when it's working, and it works on the next boot of linux. I've been googling it and it seems i'm getting some hits on google with some new terms I tried08:39
detonationNot much luck, everything I see is the old error I had before installing the backports package.08:41
detonationI should have just not upgraded the kernel *sigh*08:41
nspdetonation: Well, that's it then.  It just goes to the state it was after shut down.  Just get everything like you want it on a boot up and then from then on use the power button to turn off.08:41
detonationThat negates the use of suspend, though.08:41
nspdetonation: If you  use the power button to initiate the shutdown mode, no settings are saved.08:41
detonationIt's a laptop, it needs to be able to be suspended instead of shutdown and rebooted every few minutes08:42
nspdetonation: Ok then, if it works ok with the old kernel just revert back to it.08:42
detonationTried it, the same issue persists08:43
DJNoMaDanyone know where to get the linux for ipod or something like that,my pod is acting stupid and freezing and I wanna re do it and do it with llinux08:43
nspdetonation: With the old kernel?08:43
detonationSomething must have changed with acpi settings, as the wireless card is actually losing power completely. After a suspend I can reboot the computer, and lspci and dmesg show no wireless card.08:43
detonationYes, if I use grub to boot an older kernel on the list the issue persists08:44

nspdetonation> But you just said  "After updating the kernel (through update manager) on Jaunty I have an issue with my wireless card going completely dead after a suspend"08:46
nspdetonation: If it is not the kernel, what other update could it have been?08:47
detonationYes? And subsequent reboots unless I boot into windows, and use device manager to re-enable the card (or use the hotkeys to do it). A reboot in linux does nothing to reenable it.08:47
detonationBooting an older kernel with newer modules / configuration files always has problems..08:47
detonationTo be sure it wasn't eeepc-acpi-utilities i apt-get remove it, delete all configuration files, restarted, then reinstalled it, and rebooted. same outcome.08:48

detonationI've literally spent hours on google trying to find anything, but every problem I find is people not using the backports package where a simple unload/reload of the ath9k module fixes the problem. Mine is a bit more indepth as linux doesn't even recognize there is a card there and neither does windows unless i use the hotkeys to reenable it08:50

heoasorry this is correct: http://pastebin.com/m5a6987f010:24
heoaI mean with correct questions10:24
ubuntuTrijntje: It uses "random" data to write to disk10:24
FlannelTrijntje: It cycles through a number of patterns, followswith a random one, and then optionally zeros10:26
DigitalKiwifor a hard drive shouldn't you just need to zero it?10:26
fallhello10:27
Fenryrhello10:27
Trijntjeubuntu: see Flannel's post10:27
xtknightDigitalKiwi,   apparently things can be recovered even after zeroing it (it sorta just makes the magnetism less intense,  but not gone).  so randomizing the data confuses data recovery mechanisms for good10:27
fallI have an ubuntu iso and I'd like to extract* filesystem files, how can I do this ?10:27

DigitalKiwiNO data recovery company says it can restore a drive that has been wiped even just once with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx so I'm wondering if this shred is just as time wasteful as writing random data to a drive10:29

DigitalKiwibut that would get rid of all chance of recoverying an encrypted drive (over writing its header)10:36

jpslwell. not completely10:39
sapfeerActioParsnip: I've found. Thanks a lot10:39
xtknighttakeshi-, what you want to do is copy a clean reinstall of ~/.config/chromium to ~/Desktop/chromium-good and then diff that ~/Desktop/chromium-good with ~/.config/chromium (the latter folder should reflect AFTER two times have been executed and flash no longer works)10:39
ActionParsnipjpsl: its pointless as users should have backups10:39
ActionParsnipjpsl: and drives are inexpensive10:39
xtknighttakeshi-, now i dont know if that's the problem folder, and when you say reinstall, it might even be the system files that are changing, not the ~/.config/chromium folder.  that's probably true if when you uninstall the package you don't use purge..10:39

ubottuXQbit: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot10:41

xtknightActionParsnip, i'm not sure, i'm just wondering if bash works properly when it completes directories and so on.  for example, i think this would break "mplayer *" if you had folders with spaces in them10:55

* ActionParsnip kicks his slow scsi rebuild :(10:56

xtknightO__o with the ppd you may need to engage sudo to copy it and plus edit some config files, i'm not sure, deb should do everything for you and make it easy to uninstall11:24

aethelrickshazbotmcnasty: it is possible to have MUCH bigger partitions than this and windows 2000/XP will even read them, but MS recommend you don't make them bigger because of the performance implications14:11

trismHalabund: you could check iwconfig to see if it lists the wlan interface15:11
Halabundb3rz3rk3r: No, because it works just fine on Windows for me, and for everynoe else.  Also many people report problems like this with Ubuntu.  I suspect it's because there are actually several devices scattered throughout the building providing the network rather than one (as in the case of home wireless routers)15:11
trismHalabund: it could be the the ssd driver got loaded instead, I usually have to blacklist the alternate drivers so ndiswrapper grabs them instead15:11

deanyBerzerker, sorry, wrong one... there was one I used, cant remember its name18:36
Deelegroza, huh, how? wont it drop out error?18:36
Halabundtrism: That's not enough because b44 is the driver for the wired card, so I can't just blacklist that.  But if the modules are unloaded and reloaded in a different order, like in that blog post, then it works.  I am very glad I managed to get it working too.18:36

David-TMestora: then i'm definitely stumped... you could try adding logging entries to the iptables input/forward/output tables to see where the packets are going...18:38
grozadeele:if ubuntu firefox and mozzila firefx are 2 separate browsers then removing one should fix the problem18:38
MestoraDavid-T: I think I'll try that.18:38
Mestorabrb18:38
ActionParsnipMestora: then use: sudo route add -net 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0; sudo route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth118:39

ActionParsnipthen you need to websearch for the chip to see what makes it work18:57
__theIdiotBoxCodeRed, that depends on the context...if you're trying to transfer some files which are mandatory and they have soft links then its quite obvious that they will lead to some issues eventually18:57

erUSULDeele: check lines 144-14819:27
__theIdiotBoxCodeRed, yeh we're half way done.. at least :-)19:28
erUSULDeele: something went wrong with the nvidia install19:28
grawityvavar: You probably have vi, not vim.19:28
grawityvavar: The original vi did not support arrow keys.19:28
parapan__theIdiotBox: done this and found out something on the net except that they say if kernel bigger then 2.6 I should use the driver on the kernel ...which is not working :d19:28
__theIdiotBoxparapan, if you can't do that be more specific and let me google it19:28
grawityvavar: You might try using :set nocompatible, in case that's vim in compat mode.19:29
__theIdiotBoxparapan, oops19:29
* erUSUL vi only has to modes one in which it beeps and one in which it does not19:29
erUSULtwo*19:29
DeeleerUSUL: so, what I should do now?19:29
vavargrawity: well, itś the version that came with ubuntu.. so it should be vim rightht.. the version tells: VIM - Vi IMproved 7.119:30
__theIdiotBoxvavar, i better suggest you install vim....19:30
DeeleerUSUL: reinstall driver?19:30
parapantheidiotBox: http://www.pharscape.org/hso.html19:30
erUSULDeele: reinstall the driver? or find out what may have messed ther install... kernel update recently?19:30
vavar__theIdiotBox: it is vim already isnt it?19:30
q0shey guys. is it a problem to use ext4 under jaunty?19:30
__theIdiotBoxparapan, okey wait a  min19:30
grawityvavar: It might be in compatibility mode - did you try the command I gave?19:30
__theIdiotBoxvavar, yeh the version details says that19:30
grawityvavar: Or, just install vim-full and be done with it.19:30
vavargrawity: i will try it19:31
q0shey guys. is it a problem to use ext4 under jaunty?19:31
DeeleerUSUL: that "stupid" nvidia driver did something with kernel update, cause it could not connect to its ftp address, so it used something that he had, compiled for my system specially and tried to use that (when I tried setting up 185 version), that did not worked (started low graphics mode and error)19:31
erUSULq0s: shouldn't be19:32
DeeleerUSUL: so I reset back to back up, and set up back 180 driver19:32
mcphailvavar: remember the version of vim that ships with ubuntu is crippled (although the arrow keys _should_ work). Install vim-full or vim-gnome19:32
erUSULDeele: so you installed it with the package from nvidia.com ?19:32
q0serUSUL, heard of stability problems. thats the reason why i first comes with karmic as default.19:32
__theIdiotBoxparapan, whats the kernel version you're having? it says the driver is working fine for 2.6.2719:32
DeeleerUSUL: yes, tried to use their instructions... eaven turned off graphics engine :P19:32
erUSULq0s: is somewhat new. if you do not want risks use ext319:33
DeeleerUSUL: from alt f119:33
trismvarar: or just get used to hjkl19:33
__theIdiotBoxparapan, btw, as a last resort you have to compile it from source..did you try that ?19:33
parapan__theIdiotBox: 2.6.28-1519:33
DungeAnyone can tell me where does libtool search for libs? I though it was /etc/ld.so.conf but everythign seems right there.. it search libstdc++.la in a path of my crosstool tests that shouldn't exist anymore19:33
erUSULDeele: ok; so now you have installed both versions ? the one from repos and the one from nvidia.com ?19:33
__theIdiotBoxparapan, in that case may be we need to compile it from source right?19:33
q0serUSUL, would it help to install the newest karmic kernel?19:33
parapan__theIdiotBox: wasn't sure if I'm not going to screw something else :d so I didn't19:33
racecar56if i generated a debian package (somehow) would it work reliably in debian also?19:34
vavargrawity: thank you. i asked that question on #vim once and noone had an answer..19:34
erUSULq0s: i dunno really19:34
Michalxoracecar56, imo yes, bu I am not an expert19:34
__theIdiotBoxparapan, we're going to compile just that module only, do you have other dependencies on that which might break if there are some issues during compilation?19:35
racecar56Michalxo: k19:35
DeeleerUSUL: I dont know unix, I am windows guy :D I dont know how are drivers managed in ubuntu... Maybe it is still in there... I dont know... In hardware drivers manager, it only shows version 173 and 180 (with recommended tag)19:35
DeeleerUSUL: and that 180 is with green circle and activated19:36
parapan__theIdiotBox > well ...you tell me :d should I try this or not ? could it be more damaging for the network manager for example ????19:36
__theIdiotBoxparapan, the links you gave me talks about compiling from src in depth...so i think you can easily follow that, right?19:36
parapan__theIdiotBox : yeap I can follow ....19:36
__theIdiotBoxparapan, its segregated...no impact on others..try it out...it shud work...but make sure you follow the steps religiously19:37
parapan__theIdiotBox : only that I wanted to check that first ....and not to jump on the process19:37
__theIdiotBoxparapan, coool...go for it...19:37

NatFI have a question about downgrading packages.  I have Jaunty installed and running but a tool I am using requires perl 5.8.  Jaunty has perl 5.10.  I have added the hardy repositories to sources.list so synaptics can see 5.8.8-12 but it's now about to remove a TON of packages when I attempt to force version for perl5.8.8-12.  Is there a better way to downgrade perl?20:23

FlannelNatF: It won't work if lots of packages need the higher version (which is the case, since many packages will be removed) but that doesn't mean it can't be done in other ways.  Why do you need 5.8 again?20:41
Chimaeralol hi20:41
DeeleCodeRed: I think, OF COURSE20:41
losherNatF: downgrading is explicitly not supported. You're supposed to have backed up your system before upgrading if you want to revert it. Otherwise, you need to do from-scratch install to downgrade, just as you suspected.20:41
jer_Are there any problems using a wireless keyboard and mouse on ubuntu 9.04?20:42
CodeRedDeele: Ok, that's good, and im assuming you can use rsync to do a backup onto that external drive?20:42
DeeleCodeRed: rsync is a program that allows files to be copied to and from remote machines in much the same way as rcp.  It has many more options than rcp, and uses the rsync remote-update protocol to greatly speed up file transfers when the destination file already exists.20:42

CDubsHey everyone - I'm trying to run a webserver on my Linode using Ubuntu 9.04.  I've got the DNS setup and Apache configured to a vhost for my domain, and I want it set to redirect domain.com to www.domain.com.  When I do a rewrite on the Apache config to do the 301 for domain.com to www.domain.com, it puts me in an infinite redirect loop.  Thoughts?20:46
FlannelNatF: You can dpkg divert to move /usr/bin/perl away to maybe /usr/bin/perl10 or something, and then symlink /usr/bin/perl to 5.8 (no idea what other side effects this will have, on your Jaunty stuff that uses perl)20:46

x404xthanx losher. as you see the choices are many and none tell what features they support, looks like i have to install it to see if it will do what i want. leafnode is too basic for my needs and even inn2 seems to lack some important features. maybe ill try diablo next20:47
mikobuntukri: audacity will do this ,but you will have to run it through jack (qjackctl) and also have jack-pulse modules installed..if you want to go this way i can help, put it like this i canm record anything i can hear on my speakers20:47
Flannellosher: Well, it's less radical than just installing the 5.8 package from hardy and removing the one from jaunty.  And it is reversible.20:48
x404xwell nobody said news was easy ;=)20:48
tamerguys, is there a way to reinstall Ubuntu in a fixing mode, i don't want to lose all the programs i installed. Ideas?20:48
NatFlosher: yes they should, I might do that but the scripts are source controlled and other developers machines (ie the overloaded dev server I am attempting to move away from) are CentOS machines without this problem and I can't break them.20:48

HobbleAlongx404x: text news doesn't take a lot of storage, pron or other video; that;s different20:57
losherx404x: far easier & cheaper to just store everything, spam and all, than pay anyone, even 3rd. worlders, to wade through and try & eliminate it. But I thought there were providers who claimed to try & de-spam your feed before you get it. But why bother cacheing locally? Just access your provider...20:57

zebulon_join #brionne21:56
Out_Coldcmp, open a terminal, type these 3 letters "fes" then hit the tab key on your keyboard. Then add a space and put "&" should look something similar to festival &21:56
DJNoMaDso I need to get swat ?21:56
buckyquantum, /join #dns21:57
GoudaAccording to what the bot said probably. It's been years since I configured samba but I am probably going to be doing it soon21:57
SlartDJNoMaD: SWAT is a web-gui for setting up samba... it's just an alternative to editing the config files manually21:57
DJNoMaDI get the error "cannot mount windows share"21:57
buckyquantum, and checkout #dns homepage http://dns.slashusr.org/21:57

arvind_khadrii want to move a file to /usr/src but when i move it must still remain to me, the ownership changes to root, how do i achieve it?22:24
Out_Coldmosterhout, kind of... if you made your flash drive with a empty partition and mounted that as /home or something else.. then yes.. a live usb would keep your files22:24
DJNoMaDwaseem, I figured I would see lots of java or flash22:24

quantum(damn scared of altering anything....)23:08
nannesbecause i was explaining this to a ubuntu-it user but I didn't find any difference between them  :)23:08
dverweireDJNoMaD: lol. np. it should have asked you if you want to save your changes (if you made any).23:08
Slartnannes: .deb packages are just packed archives.. which then are unpacked to different places in the linux system.. including the files in /usr/bin and whatnot..23:08
DJNoMaDit did and I am again stumped23:08
nannesslart, ok, i know23:08
DJNoMaDshould I save to file ?23:08
Slartnannes: the actual .deb files are saved in a package cache.23:09
nannesSlart: but...23:09
dverweireDJNoMaD: if you want to save your changes, then yes.23:09
Slartnannes: or you meant something else? how to tell if a binary comes from a package or from some other place?23:09

Slartquantum: nah.. apparmor is a good thing, if I understand things correctly.. but you can nudge it a bit.. there's something called "complain mode".. I can't really say I understand it myself but try googling for "apparmor complain mode" or that error message you got.. basically you run a one line command and it works again23:15

stefgcoreyman: have fun23:17
DJNoMaDmashakl, I am not sure on that ,I assume that the ports would be open ,I do not run a ubuntu firewall23:17
Slartnannes: the english is fine.. both .deb packages and .rpm packages are archives (like zip or rar files) that contain the binary files.. but ubuntu packages are made for ubuntu and might not work on Suse or even Debian.. for that same reason rpm's made for Fedora or some other distro probably won't work on ubuntu.. libraries might not be in the same places/folders, some use different configurations and so on..23:17
buckynannes, deb packages aren' installed, deb packages have a .deb extension on the end of a file name... if you want to know which deb package a file came from then type dpkg -S /path/to/<filename>23:18
MindVirusI have a bunch of linux-ubuntu-modules-<version>-generic whose configuration files I cannot remove. Can someone help?23:18
Slartnannes: alien can be used to install rpm's on ubuntu.. but it's not recommended.. it will probably mess things up more than compiling from source will23:18
mashaklDjNoMad.. by default the port that below 1024 need a root to open it <<,but how?23:18
Slart!alien | nannes23:18
ubottunannes: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported)23:18

Slartnannes: if I understand things it's not the fact that it's an .rpm package that makes it bad to use it on ubuntu.. it's that the .rpm package probably isn't built for ubuntu that is bad.. (since anyone making a package for ubuntu would use a .deb instead)23:22

erUSULDeele: in the help is  ./configure --with-gnutls23:29

cablguylol23:30
MindViruscablguy: Skype is closed-source software. We don't like that kind.23:30
buckyMindVirus, now apt is confused23:30
Slartcablguy: nope.. sadly my skype keeps running.. not that it does me any good since I can't use it.. but no.. it doesn't shut itself down =)23:30
master_does filezilla work on 9.0423:30

cablguyI don't have any issues with it at all..23:30
DJNoMaDskype has the same agrrement that the cash for clunkers website has "we own your computer and can do whatever we want while you are connected to us"23:30

cablguyEraserHead,  never mind.  I think I see why now..   I'm using 2.1 BETA...  :p23:31
SlartMindVirus: actually.. I think the easiest thing would be to reinstall that old kernel.. and just hope it's still available from the repos23:31
MindVirusSlart: it's not.23:31
buckyMindVirus, can you sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-2.6.24-8-generic23:31

cablguyHmmmm   sorry MindVirus  not sure how to do that yet..23:32
DeeleerUSUL: I know, in whitch dir I am now, I need to know, from where I need to run that config23:32

mashaklGoada : thnx man .. I'll try23:32
