| Zappo | hi | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| asteroid | will virt-manager be update soon ? | 00:00 |
| bucky | teadict, most user apps do have a similar file i would just assume | 00:00 |
| master_ | is vbox better than wine? | 00:00 |
| asteroid | we are on 0.8.0 and 0.6.1 is provided in ubuntu-last | 00:00 |
| xiong | dare i ask if there is a batch file renaming tool? | 00:00 |
| bucky | is there any ideas in /usr/share/doc/links | 00:00 |
| asteroid | master_, vbox is different than wine | 00:00 |
| aljoshka | I'm running openbox and have another USB flash drive that mounts as it should | 00:00 |
| darkham | hey, i've http://pastebin.com/m452fdbc0 this smb.conf, is very very simply, only for share some movie in mediacenter | 00:00 |
| darkham | but in mediacenter i've a request of user and password | 00:01 |
| darkham | why? | 00:01 |
| master_ | asteroid im trying to install adobe cs3 and filezilla wont work on 9.04 connection errors is vbox for a os system | 00:01 |
| Zappo | hi im having a problem installing Aleph One. http://pastebin.com/m41000fbf thats what i get when i try to install it. anyone know what to do? | 00:01 |
| bucky | teadict, i found a user's manual http://links.sourceforge.net/docs/manual-0.82-en/ | 00:02 |
| quantum | help? /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf line 90: unknown key rndc.key | 00:02 |
| teadict | bucky: I'll give it a check | 00:02 |
| asteroid | master_, wine provide a "windows environement" in your linux. Vbox (and qemu, kvm, vmware, xen, ...) provides you a _complete_ virtual machine (hardrive, dcrom, net, display, ...) | 00:02 |
| master_ | vbox is for windows7 example | 00:02 |
| quantum | key rndc.key; | 00:03 |
| master_ | i dont want a vbox i use linux | 00:03 |
| master_ | thanks though hybrid | 00:03 |
| teadict | bucky: Oh lawd.. Hehe.. Not links the application for text-based web browsing.. Just links.. As in make a link to an executable file and make it Run by default (I want to avoid that pop-up question: [Run in terminal] [Edit] [Cancel] [Run]) | 00:03 |
| master_ | Do we have to wait for wine to configure cs3 adobe | 00:04 |
| asteroid | see it with wine team master_ | 00:04 |
| natrixnatrix89 | Hi. Which software do you use for screen capture? (making videos) | 00:04 |
| zagabar1 | Hi! I need a way to automatically upload a file that appears in a directory to my ubuntu server in a specified folder. It is from a windows environment. Do you know a way to do this? It should delete the file after it has uploaded it also. | 00:04 |
| mar-sara | hu | 00:04 |
| mar-sara | hi | 00:04 |
| asteroid | zagabar1, upload where ? | 00:05 |
| bucky | teadict, is the file executable? | 00:05 |
| zagabar1 | asteroid: From my windows computer to my ubuntu server. | 00:05 |
| FirstSgt | hey, whats that movie with the "couples theapy" on a remote island | 00:05 |
| master_ | haa i see what vbox can do so how do i configure# | 00:05 |
| mar-sara | why would "df" be showing an out of date values? | 00:05 |
| asteroid | zagabar1, ssh ? ftp ? sftp ? rsync ? | 00:05 |
| teadict | bucky: Yes.. I've never known when Ubuntu asks for the action... | 00:05 |
| yoni | Hi all, I'm writing a monitor script for my network traffic. | 00:06 |
| zagabar1 | asteroid: ftp would be great, but any would do. | 00:06 |
| mar-sara | i just resized my LV but itsnt showing like that on "df" output | 00:06 |
| FirstSgt | does anyone remember that movie, its coming our or just came out... | 00:06 |
| === ubuntu is now known as eena | ||
| yoni | While getting values from /proc/net/dev does the counters there as well on 4G are resetting? | 00:06 |
| bucky | teadict, how are you running it? by clicking on it? | 00:06 |
| asteroid | zagabar1 this is your choice : if you have an ftp server running on ubuntu, get a ftp client like ncftp (which is provided with ncftpput) helping you upload the file in one liner | 00:07 |
| teadict | bucky: Made the executable file, and made a link, normal procedure. Double clicking pops up the question | 00:07 |
| mar-sara | how can i make a backup of my current X and video setup, so I can go back to it, in case the Driver manager screws my vide ? | 00:07 |
| bucky | teadict, did you make a launcher on the desktop? and that's what your clicking? | 00:08 |
| teadict | bucky: Yeap | 00:08 |
| master_ | on vbox do i need to install windows? | 00:08 |
| zagabar1 | asteroid: But it is uploading from a windows environment. | 00:08 |
| asteroid | zagabar1, just find a client which can do it | 00:08 |
| bucky | teadict, you made a link with ln -s ? | 00:08 |
| Hydrid | YES you need | 00:08 |
| FirstSgt | Couples Retreat!! | 00:09 |
| asteroid | or4n_, run your ftp server on windows zagabar1 and use ncftpget to GET the file from windows | 00:09 |
| teadict | bucky: No, graphically interfacing | 00:09 |
| asteroid | s/or4n_/or | 00:09 |
| bucky | teadict, with a path directly to the exectuable? | 00:09 |
| bucky | from the launcer | 00:09 |
| zagabar1 | asteroid: Okay. Thanks fo the advices, I will look at them. | 00:09 |
| teadict | bucky: Yes.. | 00:10 |
| danbhfive1 | mar-sara: I think the best you can do is to backup xorg.conf | 00:10 |
| mar-sara | danbhfive1: but ubuntu doesnt use it any more ? am i right | 00:10 |
| natrixnatrix89 | guys.. Is there a way to do screen capture and save a video in ubuntu? There is one software in the packages list, but the quality of the video is very poor.. | 00:10 |
| natrixnatrix89 | i mean to capture screen. | 00:11 |
| danbhfive1 | mar-sara: well, that's still the only place that anything is hard configured. If it isn't in xorg.conf, it is autoconfigured | 00:11 |
| asteroid | well, if someone from staff see that, "we need virt-manager-0.8.0 please" :) | 00:11 |
| mar-sara | ok | 00:11 |
| asteroid | see you | 00:11 |
| danbhfive1 | !screencast | natrixnatrix89 | 00:11 |
| ubottu | natrixnatrix89: Some programs to capture your screen are recordmydesktop, Istanbul, Wink, Xvidcap, pyvnc2swf. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. | 00:11 |
| mar-sara | and would i have to do to use my current running driver for vga? | 00:11 |
| mar-sara | or most important how do i find out which one is it | 00:11 |
| natrixnatrix89 | thanks | 00:12 |
| danbhfive1 | mar-sara: what? | 00:12 |
| mar-sara | what driver for my vga am i currently using ? | 00:12 |
| sekyourbox | whats a good realtime wireless network connection status program for ubuntu? | 00:12 |
| Gouda | !xmss | Gouda | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xmss | 00:13 |
| teadict | mar-sara: Watch out! Zerling invasion! RUNNN | 00:13 |
| Gouda | !Audacious | Gouda | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about Audacious | 00:13 |
| teadict | !audacious | Gouda | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about audacious | 00:13 |
| teadict | Oh lol | 00:13 |
| Gouda | !Songbird | Gouda | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Gouda, please see my private message | 00:13 |
| mar-sara | teadict: lol | 00:13 |
| danbhfive1 | mar-sara: sudo lshw -C display | grep driver | 00:13 |
| mar-sara | danbhfive1: that came back blank | 00:14 |
| mar-sara | i did without grp, and showed my vga information | 00:14 |
| mar-sara | but not any driver | 00:14 |
| danbhfive1 | mar-sara: I dunno then. Maybe its just the vga or vesa driver or whatever the generic is | 00:15 |
| mar-sara | ok thanks | 00:16 |
| mar-sara | anyone know how to find out what driver am i using for my vga now ? | 00:16 |
| ctmjr | mar-sara: try this egrep "Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers" /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 00:16 |
| mar-sara | egrep "Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers" /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 00:17 |
| mar-sara | errrr | 00:17 |
| mar-sara | Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nv_drv.so | 00:17 |
| mar-sara | ok | 00:18 |
| mar-sara | so now , how can i go back to using that module if Driver manager crashes my X setup ? | 00:18 |

| MindVirus | ntemis: all of them? Make sure you're not hiding any. | 00:38 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: Yes, please :) | 00:38 |

| Shasirax | Great :D | 00:40 |

| Shasirax | I have a x1950 ATI card, installed som package from synaptic and now my login screen wont work -.- | 00:41 |
| Sp0tter | anyone upgrade from a Q6600 to a Core i7 ? see much difference in Ubuntu? | 00:41 |
| Shasirax | sry bad eng | 00:41 |
| MindVirus | At the bottom right, ntemis, there should be a Preferences button. | 00:41 |
| MindVirus | Click it and enable all sliders. | 00:41 |
| MindVirus | Also, ntemis, make sure you select the right device at the top. | 00:42 |
| ntemis | i have only : master playback and is ticked | 00:42 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: im on a Live cd for Ubuntu 9.04 right now so you know... | 00:42 |
| Gnea | Sirmimer: you can do that with samba | 00:42 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: sure. | 00:42 |
| Gnea | !samba | Sirmimer | 00:42 |
| ubottu | Sirmimer: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 00:42 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: go through your devices then. | 00:42 |
| Sirmimer | Gnea, shouldnt i be able to see it when i press on network? | 00:42 |
| ironfoot_495 | Hello : I'm trying to remove windows vista os and install ubuntu 9.04 but I can't get rid of vista is there a way to accomplish this??? | 00:42 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: Open terminal, and then what? | 00:42 |
| Gnea | Sirmimer: from where? | 00:42 |
| MindVirus | Sp0tter: you can but there won't be much performance difference as there should be almost no lag anyways. | 00:42 |
| Gnea | Sirmimer: samba isn't installed by default | 00:42 |
| ironfoot_495 | on a M1530 XPS | 00:43 |
| Sirmimer | I press on places (in the top), and find a folder/driver called network | 00:43 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: I would highly recommend you get on a different computer. | 00:43 |
| ntemis | what do you mean ? | 00:43 |
| ntemis | the device is correctly choosen | 00:43 |
| Bigshot_ | i am trying to install xournal i have that package downloaded how can i install it using apt-get? | 00:43 |
| ntemis | others are not ok to choose | 00:43 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: please, if you're talking to me, type my name (easy way to do this is by typing the first few letters of my name and pressing tab). This way I know you're talking to me. | 00:43 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: why are they not OK to choose? | 00:43 |
| Shasirax | ok, but my brothers computer doesnt have any irc client | 00:43 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: Pidgin has an IRC client, if he has that. | 00:44 |
| MaGicMaX1 | guys, i was wondering if there was a way to relay my mics sound input into my speakers, so i could hear myself talk? | 00:44 |
| Shasirax | He runs Vista... | 00:44 |
| genii | Bigshot_: If you downloaded a .deb package, apt-get isn't the tool. dpkg is | 00:44 |
| Gnea | Sirmimer: well, you'd need to make sure the windows pc is setup correctly to accept the smb connections like that. samba can help by makin the ubuntu pc accessible to the windows pc. | 00:44 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: Pidgin is for all major operating systems. :) If he uses IM without Pidgin then he is missing out. | 00:44 |
| Bigshot_ | genii: how can i install the dependencies? | 00:44 |
| Sirmimer | ooh okay | 00:44 |
| Sirmimer | I'll try installing it | 00:44 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: hda nvidia (alsa mixer) | 00:44 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: He's a noob :) | 00:45 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: why can't you pick the others? | 00:45 |
| Gnea | Sirmimer: is the windows pc part of a domain or is it a home edition? | 00:45 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: i can | 00:45 |
| ntemis | but the one selected is the correct | 00:45 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: It is of no consequence. We need a place where you can talk without being disconnected on reboot. | 00:45 |
| genii | Bigshot_: Usually there will be a readme or similar. Find out what the deps are and install them separately | 00:45 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: you'd be surprised. | 00:45 |
| Sirmimer | Gnea: home edition | 00:45 |
| ntemis | ok let me check | 00:45 |
| Bigshot_ | gtk+ 2.4 or later (2.6 recommended) libgnomecanvas 2.4 or later- libgnomeprint and libgnomeprintui 2.2 or later , what names should i give to apt-get to install these packages? | 00:45 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: Installing Pidgin on vista... :D | 00:45 |
| teehee | how com deluge says no incomming connections when the ports are open in the router and firewall is disables | 00:46 |
| MaGicMaX1 | guys, i was wondering if there was a way to relay my mics sound input into my speakers, so i could hear myself talk? | 00:46 |
| genii | Bigshot_: this is ugly but necessary when installing things outside of normal methods | 00:46 |
| Bigshot_ | yeah what to do man gotta have it :D | 00:46 |
| joako | Is there a way to create an Ubuntu install disc adding packages and customizing settings? | 00:46 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: please, tell your brother to use it, too. | 00:46 |
| danbhfive1 | Bigshot_: did you try install-recommends? | 00:47 |
| Bigshot_ | danbhfive1: it's not an apt-get package | 00:47 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: i will :) | 00:47 |
| MindVirus | joako: not yet, I don't believe, but with Karmic you will be able to add packages. | 00:47 |
| Bigshot_ | i have tar.gz package | 00:47 |
| biovore | joako: yes.. not all the simple though.. | 00:47 |
| MindVirus | joako: Karmic allows you to make a "service pack" -- that is, a package with packages, basically. | 00:47 |
| ntemis | ok fixed | 00:47 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: thanks | 00:47 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: volume's set? | 00:47 |
| Sirmimer | Gnea, does it matter if its home edtion or domain? | 00:48 |
| MindVirus | Great, man. | 00:48 |
| MindVirus | I'm 3/3 so far today. | 00:48 |
| MindVirus | :) | 00:48 |
| Bigshot_ | genii: you there bud what should i do? | 00:48 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: you're next. | 00:48 |
| genii | Bigshot_: tar.gz is not a package. It's usually source code | 00:48 |
| joako | MindVirus: What I need is an install disc that has ssh, ldap/nsswitch/pam packages, certain username/password already created, and enabled by default ssh service and ldap logins | 00:48 |
| MindVirus | joako: it's pretty tricky. | 00:48 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: my brothers computer = Slow! | 00:48 |
| MindVirus | Shasirax: as long as it works. | 00:49 |
| joako | I thought there was something like www.susestudio.com for ubuntu.... | 00:49 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: + i hate vista... :P | 00:49 |
| biovore | joako: there is ubuntu studio | 00:49 |
| Bigshot_ | genii: so how to install it and the dependencies | 00:49 |
| MindVirus | Don't we all, Shasirax? | 00:49 |
| danbhfive1 | Bigshot_: I see. Well, you can always just use apt-cache search <term> That has worked for me in the past to find those kinds of packages, but I've only done it once or twice | 00:49 |
| Shasirax | MindVirus: Yes we do :) | 00:49 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: hda nvidia (alsa mixer) chosen before was hda nvidia -alc883 analog (pulse audio) | 00:49 |
| O__o | hi i have question about ssh | 00:49 |
| biovore | !ask | 00:50 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 00:50 |
| genii | Bigshot_: It's not something I'm ready or interested in to give support of. | 00:50 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: yes, don't forget about those other devices. | 00:50 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: and i thought was correct because indeed my soundcard is alc883 | 00:50 |
| O__o | RSA host key for has changed and you have requested strict checking | 00:50 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: the state of sound support in Linux is a shamble. | 00:50 |
| joako | biovore: I don't think we are talking about this same thing... if you look at http://www.susestudio.com it isn't anywhere near the same concept as http://ubuntustudio.org/ | 00:50 |
| alanpan | anyone knows how to switch consoles, i tried ctrl+alt+F(1-6), but it is not working. | 00:50 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: what shamble means? | 00:50 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: think of a collapsed building. | 00:51 |
| Bigshot_ | genii: do you know any pdf annottator? | 00:51 |
| biovore | O__o: then when connecting? | 00:51 |
| joako | "SUSE Studio builds: Your software and everything it needs, in one appliance; A custom distro, with your own software and branding" | 00:51 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: we need a daemon (PulseAudio) to delegate sound to a proper daemon because there are so many of them now that developers can't code for a specific one. | 00:51 |
| O__o | biovore, how to fix? | 00:51 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Done | 00:51 |
| genii | Bigshot_: Not off the top of my head | 00:51 |
| biovore | O__o: havn't got a clear picture of what your problem is.. | 00:51 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: I will talk to you here, yes? | 00:51 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: why the dont fix it after so time pulse audio is out and all distros use it? | 00:52 |
| O__o | i try to ssh into other computer but cant because i have use that IP on different network | 00:52 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Yes, im on my brothers comp now :) | 00:52 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: fixing is harder than talking. There is a lot that needs to be done. | 00:52 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: it's amazing that sound even works. | 00:52 |
| O__o | asically, the SSH erver you contacted either renewed the authenicated/encyption key or reinstalled, which would also renew the key. If you're sure that the server is who/what you're contacted then deleted the known_hosts file and continue. | 00:52 |
| biovore | O__o: when you ssh.. is it saying something about the RSA key not matching? | 00:52 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: great. | 00:52 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: lol | 00:52 |
| O__o | how to delete known_hosts file? | 00:52 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: now we'll need to take a look at xorg.conf. Do you know where that is? | 00:53 |
| ntemis | MindVirus: thanks again | 00:53 |
| Lachlan | Hi guys. Trying to get embedded video player working in Firefox. I've installed xine and the mozilla plugin. Quicktime vids work everywhere but the Apple website. What's special about the Apple website that it doesn't recognise the Xine plugin? | 00:53 |
| biovore | O__o: its in your homedirectory in a hidden folder.. cd ~/.ssh/ | 00:53 |
| Shasirox | Can i join a 1 on 1 chat with you or do you want to stay in this chat? :) | 00:53 |
| MindVirus | ntemis: any time. | 00:53 |
| biovore | O__o: probably only need to delete the offending entry.. | 00:53 |
| Bigshot_ | i want to execute jarnal.jar file what package should i install? | 00:53 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: if we stay in this chat then others can help, and I can help others. | 00:53 |
| O__o | biovore, thx dude | 00:54 |
| ntemis | bye all | 00:54 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Ok :) What shall i do now? | 00:54 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: do you know about xorg.conf? | 00:54 |
| Shasirox | a little | 00:54 |
| Sirmimer | I cannot see my brothers windows pc on "network" i just installed Samba, what can be the problem? | 00:54 |
| rapha | Hi! | 00:54 |
| Shasirox | Sirmimer: Does you brother have samba? | 00:55 |

| MindVirus | Shasirox: alright. Do you know where your hard drive is located in that LiveCD? | 00:55 |
| Sirmimer | ok | 00:55 |
| Sirmimer | I will ask him to do so | 00:55 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Yes :) | 00:55 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: could you tell me the drive so I don't have to guess? | 00:56 |
| MindVirus | Drive. I mean folder. | 00:56 |
| Sirmimer | Shasirox: brb ill tell you when he installed it/if he already have it | 00:56 |
| Bigshot_ | ok nvm | 00:56 |
| syntax | why is it when i play a song from the home foldier its streaming..I cant ff or rewind.. | 00:56 |
| Shasirox | You mean the installed Ubuntu... | 00:56 |
| syntax | and im useing totem | 00:56 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: yes. | 00:56 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: W8 | 00:56 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: hold on, you want to do those commands? | 00:57 |
| MindVirus | That you have in your blog? | 00:57 |
| MindVirus | Those fix the issue, right? | 00:57 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: No, not exactly... | 00:57 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: please then explain the issue further. | 00:58 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Pretty new to ubuntu | 00:58 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: also, I wouldn't recommend removing fglrx. | 00:58 |
| ironfroggy_ | I am awaiting a fsck on an external drive, but the CPU of the fsck.ext3 process is listing as "disk sleep" | 00:58 |
| MindVirus | Keep it around for safe measure. | 00:58 |
| Shasirox | i dont know how | 00:58 |
| ironfroggy_ | shouldn't the process being doing something with the disk, if its checking it? | 00:58 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: "sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx" | 00:58 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: that removes it. | 00:58 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: you shouldn't do that. | 00:58 |
| Shasirox | I wanted to have dual screen, my comp screen and my tv | 00:58 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: OK, hold on. Start over. What is your problem? | 00:59 |
| Shasirox | so i fallowed some fucking guide how to install drivers for my video card (ATI x1950) | 00:59 |
| MindVirus | !language | Shasirox | 01:00 |
| ubottu | Shasirox: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 01:00 |
| Rabbitbunny | ... | 01:00 |
| Shasirox | the login screen on ubuntu wont work, i cant login.... | 01:00 |
| Sirmimer | Would it be possible to use Hamachi to connect an Ubuntu computer with a Vista Home Edition computer? | 01:00 |
| Spudster | Can someone help me troubleshoot an init.d problem (Trying to get a drqueue script to start on boot) | 01:00 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: OK, before we deal with dual screen, let's get the login screen working first. | 01:00 |
| Shasirox | its just a black screen, but the videocard is sending to the screen... | 01:01 |
| Shasirox | yes | 01:01 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: open, on the installed Ubuntu partition, the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. | 01:01 |
| === bizkut-miau is now known as bizkut | ||
| rapha | thx for answering me found it | 01:01 |
| rapha | bye | 01:01 |
| Shasirox | ok | 01:01 |
| Shasirox | brb | 01:01 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: that means use gedit. | 01:01 |
| Shasirox | yes | 01:02 |
| Shasirox | done | 01:02 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Done :) | 01:02 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: OK. Put into a pastebin, now: http://pastebin.com, for example. | 01:02 |
| queso_ | How can I safely end a remote ssh session that is connected to my computer? | 01:03 |
| Shasirox | W8 | 01:03 |
| MindVirus | queso_: that is a great question. | 01:03 |
| borbosha_laptop | Ok, I can't for the life of me remember the command to automatically create init.d scripts in ubuntu server. | 01:04 |
| borbosha_laptop | Can someone help refresh my memory. | 01:04 |
| Shasirox | 13021 | 01:04 |
| Shasirox | http://pastebin.org/13021 | 01:04 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: ooh, a clean slate. | 01:05 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: What? :S | 01:05 |
| queso_ | MindVirus: Does that mean you have an answer? ;) | 01:05 |
| MindVirus | queso_: it means you've piqued my interest and I'm looking for one. | 01:05 |
| Bigshot_ | is there anything like floating stylus bar in ubuntu for writing with stylus??? | 01:05 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: see where it says Section "Device"? | 01:05 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Where are you from btw? | 01:05 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: I am currently in Cleveland, OH. | 01:05 |
| Shasirox | Yes | 01:05 |
| Bigshot_ | huh? | 01:06 |
| queso_ | MindVirus: Yeah, I just connected to my home box from work, never closed the connection, and now I just want to end it. | 01:06 |
| JesusCake | Hello | 01:06 |
| Shasirox | oh, nice. You o not speak swedish then :) | 01:06 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: see how it says Identifier "blah"? In the exact same format do Driver "vesa". | 01:06 |
| JesusCake | i need halp | 01:06 |
| MindVirus | queso_: check for ssh processes that are open on your box. | 01:07 |
| MindVirus | queso_: if I were you I'd just restart the SSH daemon. | 01:07 |
| JesusCake | when i try and run a full screen game, i get immense lag, 5 fps, and when i run it in windows mode, i also get immense lag, 3 fps | 01:07 |
| MindVirus | I don't think there's an easy way. | 01:07 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: vesa? | 01:07 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: what video card are you running? | 01:07 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: I'll post it for you. | 01:07 |
| JesusCake | Ati radeon x1400 | 01:08 |
| Gouda | JesusCake: Also what game are you trying to run | 01:08 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: http://pastebin.org/13023 | 01:08 |
| JesusCake | warcraft III the frozen throne | 01:08 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: Have you installed restricted drivers? | 01:08 |
| queso_ | MindVirus: That doesn't sound like an orthodox method, though. There ought to be a way to end user sessions without restarting daemons, no? | 01:08 |
| JesusCake | no | 01:08 |
| JesusCake | im very new to linux | 01:08 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Should i copy that any save in the file? | 01:08 |
| Bigshot_ | is there a floating keyboard in ubuntu for TAblet pc? | 01:09 |
| MindVirus | queso_: the client connects to the daemon. The daemon takes control from there. If you can figure out a way to tell the daemon to kill the connection safely then by all means do it. | 01:09 |
| JesusCake | ubuntu was the only thing that would install on my hard drive.. so im trying to make stuff work :D | 01:09 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: save what I wrote into xorg.conf. | 01:09 |
| Gouda | Bishot_: A character map? | 01:09 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: I will | 01:09 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: xorg.conf is the de-facto Xorg configuration file. | 01:09 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: you will be screwing with this file a lot. | 01:09 |
| Bigshot_ | what no for writing and inputting text with stylus Gouda | 01:09 |
| Gouda | Not sure | 01:10 |
| Bigshot_ | i installed wacom-tools but then waht? | 01:10 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: Linux is not the best with games. | 01:10 |
| JesusCake | i know | 01:10 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: but only because game vendors have not begun to support Linux as widely yet. | 01:10 |
| JesusCake | but | 01:10 |
| JesusCake | its my only optoin right now | 01:10 |
| JesusCake | until i can afford a new hard drive | 01:10 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: System->Administration->Hardware Drivers. | 01:10 |
| Gouda | JesusCake: are you using WINE to run War3? | 01:10 |
| JesusCake | yes | 01:10 |
| JesusCake | and there is nothing in the drivers | 01:10 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Permission problem -.- | 01:11 |
| Shasirox | Cant save it.... | 01:11 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: how did you open the file? | 01:11 |
| Shasirox | Double click :D | 01:11 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: no, no. | 01:11 |
| Shasirox | gedit | 01:11 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: here's what you need to do. | 01:11 |
| MindVirus | Alt+F2. | 01:11 |
| Shasirox | ok | 01:11 |
| MindVirus | Type in "gksudo gedit /path/to/file". | 01:11 |
| JesusCake | so now what.. | 01:12 |
| Gouda | JesusCake: When you run it do you use the -opengl flag? | 01:12 |
| Sirmimer | Hi i need help to install Hamachi (To install a program) | 01:12 |
| JesusCake | what is that | 01:12 |
| Gouda | JesusCake: try doing it like this wine "Warcraft III.exe" -opengl | 01:13 |
| noobez | guys, if my desktop gets stuck cuz of an app, how do i launch the gnome system manager with a combination of keys? like ctrl+alt+canc was for task manager in windows (ctrl+alt+esc already tried, it wont work) | 01:13 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Done | 01:13 |
| JesusCake | okay | 01:13 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Saved it | 01:13 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: great. | 01:13 |
| JesusCake | is there no alt tabbing on linux? | 01:13 |
| MindVirus | Now try to boot up. | 01:13 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: there is. | 01:13 |
| MindVirus | Plenty of it. | 01:13 |
| FloodBot2 | MindVirus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:13 |
| JesusCake | lol | 01:13 |
| duhu | Hey guys , whats the best version of flash to install in ubuntu 9.04 (on a macbook pro)? thanks | 01:14 |
| JesusCake | when i alt tab, it just goes back into the fullscreen game | 01:14 |
| JesusCake | but brb checking this | 01:14 |
| pauljw | noobez: try ctrl-esc | 01:14 |
| noobez | pauljw: tried, nothing happens | 01:14 |
| MindVirus | duhu: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer. | 01:14 |
| Gouda | You are on fire MindVirus | 01:15 |
| noobez | pauljw: cant i just decide what combiantion of keys to use in order to run application? how do i do that? | 01:15 |
| MindVirus | Gouda: :) | 01:15 |
| MindVirus | I try to give back to the community. | 01:15 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: :( | 01:15 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: still doesn't work, eh? | 01:15 |
| MindVirus | Don't fret! | 01:15 |
| JesusCake | works much much better | 01:15 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: no | 01:15 |
| JesusCake | but when i alt tab | 01:15 |
| JesusCake | it does not go to the desktop | 01:15 |
| Bigshot_ | how can i use stylus to input into ubuntu? | 01:16 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: did you already restart? If not, don't. | 01:16 |
| pauljw | not sure noobez, i'm in a kde envir right now, but i'm sure there is someplace to set hotkeys | 01:16 |
| Gouda | Yeah not sure about the alt+tab thing JesusCake but glad the game is running better :) | 01:16 |
| salty-horse | hi. master_ here installed both ubuntu and kubuntu from different live cd's into different partitions. his grub menu now has both kubuntu and ubuntu. what's the best and/or simplest way to remove the kubuntu partition? | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | :D | 01:16 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Im at "login screen" | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | now if i only had a mouse i could test it out | 01:16 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: That means that the game is controlling the keyboard input and not responding to Alt+Tab. | 01:16 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: so it does work. | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | how do i fix | 01:16 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: no, it black... | 01:16 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: this is the fault of the game, not of Linux. | 01:16 |
| Bigshot_ | hey pauljw is there a floating keyboard or stylus input in ubuntu for tablet pc? | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | ah okay | 01:16 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: what do you mean? | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | so only way to alt tab | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | is to | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | quit | 01:16 |
| JesusCake | lol | 01:17 |
| FloodBot2 | JesusCake: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:17 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: there may be a different way but I don't know it. | 01:17 |
| JesusCake | god blizzard, way to ruin everything | 01:17 |
| Gouda | WINE supports alt tabbing but War3 may not | 01:17 |
| JesusCake | on windows | 01:17 |
| JesusCake | you can alt tab | 01:17 |
| queso_ | MindVirus: Figured it out. Just do 'w' to find which TTY the connection is. Then | 01:17 |
| JesusCake | with war3 | 01:17 |
| pauljw | sry Bigshot_ i really don't know | 01:17 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Just a black screen... But it should be loginscreen, if i had not had the problem... | 01:17 |
| JesusCake | hmmm | 01:17 |
| MindVirus | queso_: of course; I forgot it's still a TTY. | 01:17 |
| JesusCake | what if i just used a windows loader, and installed it from there | 01:17 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: so you don't have a login screen or you do? | 01:17 |
| JesusCake | would i have performance issues? | 01:17 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: what do you mean, Windows loader? | 01:18 |
| queso_ | MindVirus: (sorry, accidentally hit enter) then 'ps -u username' to find the process id for bash. then 'kill -9 processid' | 01:18 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: I dont have a loginscreen | 01:18 |
| JesusCake | like | 01:18 |
| JesusCake | virtual machine | 01:18 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: Ctrl+Alt+F1. | 01:18 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: Virtual machines run better with less incompatibilities. You can try one. | 01:18 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Nothing hapens... | 01:18 |
| JesusCake | ah okay | 01:18 |
| queso_ | MindVirus: I guess that's basically the safe way to log someone out, kinda, by just killing their bash process. | 01:18 |
| JesusCake | imma pump up the resolution on this game | 01:18 |
| JesusCake | brb | 01:18 |
| Sirmimer | ****I need help to installing a program, i got a guide to it, but im not sure on how to use the terminal codes right - Can anyone help me? | 01:19 |
| MindVirus | queso_: right-o. | 01:19 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: Hmm. You're at a black screen with no text, right? | 01:19 |
| i00nsu | Sirmimer, dpkg -i file.deb | 01:19 |
| Gouda | MindVirus, how long you been using Linux? | 01:19 |
| Sirmimer | i00nsu: It's not a .deb file | 01:19 |
| MindVirus | Gouda: 'bout 5-6 years. | 01:19 |
| MindVirus | Gouda: I started on Gentoo, though. | 01:20 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Yes, but it's smal colour parts here ant there | 01:20 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: nothing that makes any sense, though, right? | 01:20 |
| Sirmimer | I00nsu: hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-lnx (Thats what its called) | 01:20 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: no :/ | 01:20 |
| Gouda | Mkay. I started on redhat and tried out mandrake back around 2000 but haven't dealt with Linux since until now | 01:20 |
| MindVirus | Alright. Go to the LiveCD, or the recovery command prompt (which I prefer; I don't know about you). | 01:20 |
| i00nsu | tar zxf for tar.gz or tar xjf for bz2 and ./configure --help for advanced options.. you should read the readme file before | 01:21 |
| Dr_Willis | !info unp | 01:21 |

| Shasirox | MindVirus: It's a little text in the bottom | 01:21 |
| MindVirus | Gouda: Gentoo really teaches you. | 01:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Im lazy and use the 'unp' command :) | 01:21 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: pardon? | 01:21 |
| Gouda | MindVirus: How does it teach you? Is it very particular about how things are done? | 01:21 |
| MindVirus | Gouda: it is the least user-friendly operating system ever. | 01:22 |
| MindVirus | And I had to start with it. | 01:22 |
| Sirmimer | i00nsu: Download the hamachi Linux package (I did that) Extract the package to a temp directory (I did at /Home/Christian/) Change to that directory in terminal (I tryed cd /home/christian/ but that didnt work, im stuck here) | 01:22 |
| ironfroggy_ | if I do `dd if=/dev/sdb of=backup.img` where /dev/sdb is a 120GB usb disk, why might dd say it completed copying only 2.2meg? | 01:22 |
| Gouda | More power to you brotha | 01:22 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: 01/25/2008-1945-6a79tg0ac-00 | 01:22 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: make sure your block size is correct. | 01:22 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Thats the text... | 01:22 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: makes no sense at all | 01:22 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: I don't know what that even means, dude. | 01:22 |
| ironfroggy_ | MindVirus: how do i know that? | 01:23 |
| a514 | Where can i get Xplash for 9.04? | 01:23 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: It's creapy... | 01:23 |
| MindVirus | Gouda: installation consists of being dropped into a root terminal with an Internet connection and asked to untar a big archive. | 01:23 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: I'll boot in recovery mode | 01:23 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: I'm guessing /dev/sdb is a CD, right? | 01:23 |
| Gouda | Very interesting | 01:23 |
| ironfroggy_ | no, its an older IDE harddrive connected via a USB adapter. | 01:23 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Now im in the recovery mode :) | 01:24 |
| JesusCake | okay | 01:24 |
| ironfroggy_ | im trying to backup some discs from a defunct machine i was using as a sambda server | 01:24 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: OK, in the root prompt, yes? | 01:24 |
| JesusCake | so i tried to join a game | 01:24 |
| JesusCake | and it crashes and my comp freezes | 01:24 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: there are probably filesystem corruptions. | 01:24 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Pardon? | 01:24 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: try to fsck. | 01:24 |
| Gouda | JesusCake: Tried joining a WAN game? | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ironfroggy_: if yoy use the 'BS' option with dd - it will copy much faster. theres also a 'dd_rescue' variant for drives with read errors. | 01:24 |
| JesusCake | a battle.net game | 01:24 |
| ironfroggy_ | MindVirus: fsck frightens me when it asks lots of questions. | 01:24 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: the recovery console gives you a few options. | 01:24 |
| a514 | Has anyone tested Ubuntu 9.10 alpha 4? I want to d/l Xplash for 9.04 | 01:24 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: me too. You get over it, though. :) | 01:24 |
| i00nsu | Sirmimer, did you read the README file? did you make (1. make install, 2. hamachi-init, 3, hamachi start, etc) ? | 01:24 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: I'm happy I can finally help you after you helping me so many times in #python. | 01:24 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Yes, witch one should i take? | 01:24 |
| ironfroggy_ | MindVirus: it asks me to start overwriting blocks starting at block 10 | 01:25 |
| ironfroggy_ | and every single block after that | 01:25 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: extreme data corruption. | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ironfroggy_: and you may want to 'dd' the individual partitions if you wish to access them via the loopback mount feature later.. you can do it with the whold 'disk' image. but its a little more involved. | 01:25 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Sry, i cant spell.... | 01:25 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: it's no problem. As long as I can read what you're writing. | 01:25 |
| i00nsu | Sirmimer, is all there.. all instructions | 01:25 |
| === yuvipanda is now known as YuviPanda | ||
| JesusCake | so.. any ideas now? | 01:25 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: :) | 01:25 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: go to the root prompt. | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ironfroggy_: ive seen people 'dd' a drive to a file then fsck the file. :) that way they keep the original data/drive 'safe' and can attempt other recovery methods on the original data | 01:25 |
| ironfroggy_ | thank you for all the suggestions | 01:25 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Yes | 01:26 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: I'm fairly certain your drive's busted. | 01:26 |
| ironfroggy_ | the worst thing is I started with the newest drive in the box, as a test run before i tried the ones i though tmight actually be faulty :-( | 01:26 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: please tell me if this is not the case so I can keep trying to help. | 01:26 |
| ironfroggy_ | MindVirus: ill try a few more things and come back if i can continue | 01:26 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Time here is 2:26 in the morning :) | 01:26 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: give me a moment to think. | 01:26 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: No, problem :) | 01:27 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: you need to be heading to bed soon? | 01:27 |
| JesusCake | sigh | 01:27 |
| Gouda | JesusCake: You changed your resolutions to high resolotion right? | 01:27 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: Naaa... | 01:27 |
| JesusCake | yeah | 01:27 |
| JesusCake | i get to the dl map screen.. and it just freezes / crashes | 01:27 |
| Gouda | Try again with a lower res. Try the lowest res and joining a game and see if it crashes | 01:27 |

| mattwj2002 | how about the onboard graphics? | 01:29 |

| mattwj2002 | okay | 01:29 |
| mattwj2002 | :) | 01:29 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: `grep "(EE)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log` What "thing" does it start with ? | 01:29 |
| mattwj2002 | acceleration too? :D | 01:29 |
| Shasirox | those ' alike things... | 01:30 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: don't include the backticks. | 01:30 |
| mattwj2002 | this will go in mythtv box :D | 01:30 |
| Shasirox | aha | 01:30 |
| mattwj2002 | also what about hdmi support? | 01:30 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: you can type them right above the tab key. They mean `this is a command`. | 01:30 |
| mattwj2002 | sorry about all the questions? | 01:30 |
| Shasirox | ok | 01:30 |
| MindVirus | mattwj2002: HDMI is supported AFAIK. I don't know very well about this, though. | 01:30 |
| JesusCake | alt tab works now.. | 01:30 |
| JesusCake | but i cannot host | 01:31 |
| JesusCake | like i used to be able to | 01:31 |
| MindVirus | mattwj2002: the card will work, guaranteed. Acceleration, however, is the 90% thing. | 01:31 |
| mattwj2002 | AFAIK? | 01:31 |
| MindVirus | mattwj2002: as far as I know. | 01:31 |

| ironfroggy_ | errxfer keeps going up | 01:32 |
| MindVirus | JesusCake: iptables is a very powerful firewall, if you configure it to be one. | 01:33 |
| ironfroggy_ | MindVirus: no matter the case i felt it best to get a copy of the image before touching the drive any further. if its any mechanical issues i dont want to risk something failing permanently before i get the raw image off | 01:33 |
| MindVirus | ironfroggy_: yes, good call. | 01:33 |
| Shasirox | MindVirus: it stands (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implement, (??) unknown | 01:33 |
| MindVirus | Shasirox: and that's it? | 01:33 |
| mattwj2002 | thanks guys! | 01:33 |

| === matteo is now known as Guest42077 | ||

| === linda_ is now known as mralexandro | ||
| Dr_Willis | david__: disable onboard sound card in teh bios is a good idea. | 02:00 |
| caseyd | i have their uuid, so in fstab i put: UUID=2039849283 /storage ntfs | 02:00 |
| eljefe_ | what application opens .deb files? | 02:01 |
| redvamp128 | david__: you could go into sound under preferences and it should be in the selection on the drop down. | 02:01 |
| mralexandro | hi i was wondering if anyone know some good radioprograms? | 02:01 |
| thiebaude | !.deb | 02:01 |
| ubottu | deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 02:01 |
| Lars_G | is there any way I can get 2.6.29 or .30 compiled and packaged for jaunty? | 02:01 |
| OpensourceFTW | anybody know the status on the intel driver for 9.10? | 02:01 |
| eljefe_ | thanks ubottu | 02:01 |
| Dr_Willis | caseyd: I think you need more to the 'fstab' line then what you just gave... (or did you trim it down for us) | 02:02 |
| mralexandro | i stay corrected i mean radio software, where you can choose differendt channels | 02:02 |
| caseyd | no that's all i put | 02:02 |
| thiebaude | eljefe_, np | 02:02 |
| eljefe_ | thiebaude: yes you, not the bot, sorry! | 02:02 |
| Dr_Willis | caseyd: then you are missing part of the fstab lines.. im supirsed they work at all. | 02:02 |
| thiebaude | eljefe_, :d | 02:02 |
| thiebaude | yep | 02:02 |
| Dr_Willis | caseyd: exapme on this box --> /dev/sda1 /media/Windows ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 1 | 02:02 |
| caseyd | it doesnt ;-) | 02:02 |
| caseyd | ok | 02:03 |
| redvamp128 | Lars_G: you could check the following-- under software sources-- Pre-released updates as well as unsupported updates- then close and let the list reload (it is possible that what you are looking for may be in those) | 02:03 |
| david__ | i dont see it under sound prefrences | 02:03 |
| Dr_Willis | you can replace /dev/whatever with UUID=XXX-XXX-XXX | 02:03 |
| rho | Dr_Willis, thanks for the hint. xdg-user-dirs package is what i was looking for :) | 02:03 |
| redvamp128 | david_: where it says sound in preferences (also it may say alsa) | 02:03 |
| Dr_Willis | rho: i just stumbled upon that one day while cleaning out my 'startup apps' :) | 02:04 |
| Lars_G | redvamp128: Ok, is this the same as backports? | 02:04 |
| Dr_Willis | rho: one of the things i disable. :) | 02:04 |
| redvamp128 | Lars_G: I think I remember on my other install that it updated to the 2.6.28 when I clicked the pre-released | 02:04 |
| Lars_G | redvamp128: 2.6.28 is not enough :( | 02:05 |
| redvamp128 | Lars_G: it may have the 2.6.29 or .30 there but only way it to check | 02:05 |
| Lars_G | redvamp128: I will. thanks | 02:06 |
| redvamp128 | David_: under the sound options there should be a way to select the sound output | 02:06 |
| redvamp128 | Lars_G: only other way is to download the compiler and compile it yourself | 02:06 |
| redvamp128 | Lars_G: I have yet to compile my own kernel - (only done it for a few apps as well as wine) | 02:07 |

| redvamp128 | livingdaylight: open up your synaptic package manager and find wine-- then right click and choose completely remove then apply , then try again. | 02:09 |
| i00nsu | RPG_Master, ifconfig eth0 down || ifconfig eth0 up || ifconfig 192.168.?.? netmask 255.255.255.0 | 02:09 |

| Lars_G | redvamp128: I've done it lots of times but long ago and I wanted to avoid it right now | 02:09 |
| Lars_G | redvamp128: specially since this is for/in a netbook | 02:09 |
| livingdaylight | redvamp128: odd... i did cotr. alt backspace | 02:09 |
| Lars_G | and it seems the driver I need from 2.6.29 uses net structre changes from 2.6.28 wont compile well in 2.6.28 | 02:10 |

| Rabbitbunny | So... a Lower nice number does mean more processing time right? | 02:10 |
| Zappo | any help? | 02:10 |
| redvamp128 | Lars_G: If it exists it is possible it is in the Pre-release updates in the software sources | 02:10 |
| i00nsu | RPG_Master, you can go to services and stop runing dhcpd services | 02:11 |
| redvamp128 | livingdaylight: you could also try the following in the synaptic package manager-- right click on wine and choose reinstall | 02:11 |

| RPG_Master | How do I set my internal IP as static? So it will never change | 02:14 |
| i00nsu | RPG_Master, u are in ubuntu . and trying to configure administrative stuff, so you need to use the prefix sudo command | 02:15 |
| redvamp128 | i00nsu: I would try gksu instead | 02:15 |
| catmando | what is gksu? | 02:15 |
| redvamp128 | !gksu | 02:15 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 02:15 |
| RPG_Master | I did that next and then I didn't get any feedback at all | 02:15 |
| i00nsu | don't know that ;) but hey, is another solution, is what ppl want :P | 02:16 |
| redvamp128 | i00nsu: it is preferable to try gksudo before using sudo -- (I had to learn that one the hard way myself) | 02:16 |
| catmando | why is that? | 02:17 |
| i00nsu | but can you tell me the diference? | 02:17 |
| Rabbitbunny | sudo will mess up permissions, gksudo wont. | 02:17 |
| catmando | how will sudo mess with permissions? | 02:17 |
| === uman_ is now known as duhi | ||
| redvamp128 | i00nsu: only differences I saw is that sometimes sudo won't give you a choice for something -- like click it -- but gksudo will | 02:17 |
| catmando | sudo doesnt mess with permissions does it? | 02:17 |
| duhi | Hey guys do you know how i can monitor the temp of my macbook pro running 9.04? thanks | 02:18 |
| RPG_Master | OK, so now my internal IP will never change? | 02:18 |
| i00nsu | RPG_Master, did you stop DHCP server? | 02:18 |
| david__ | how can i compule a driver that is opensource? | 02:18 |
| RPG_Master | i00nsu, I didn't see that in services | 02:18 |
| i00nsu | redvamp128, hmm.. i thought it was just a interface | 02:19 |
| redvamp128 | catmando: you should really use sudo just for things like getting and installing updates (as in sudo apt-get update / upgrade) | 02:19 |
| Rabbitbunny | RPG_Master: It's running on another box, or in a router. | 02:19 |
| redvamp128 | catmando: though never use sudo natilus (as to file changes will make it root and you have to change permissions to get it back) | 02:19 |
| RPG_Master | Rabbitbunny, What do you mean? | 02:19 |
| RPG_Master | I should put that command into the desktop that's wired to the router | 02:20 |
| RPG_Master | ? | 02:20 |
| duhi | Hey guys do you know how i can monitor the temp of my macbook pro running 9.04? thanks | 02:20 |

| catmando | ah I see | 02:21 |
| catmando | This page is quite informative http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo | 02:21 |
| redvamp128 | catmando: what i00nsu is telling him to do is a system wide change and should be done as root (but other tasks do not need root run or configure) | 02:21 |

| miguelonnnn | please 1 quick question, | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | mmorrow: interesting. you could try one of those not-quite-legal windows live cd's | 02:34 |
| bankix | Parsel: Could you paste a "fdisk -l" from within the ubuntu live system? | 02:34 |
| Nubosal | Hey | 02:34 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: i can't, since it didn't come with any sort of restore anything, nor does the laptop have a cd-drive (nor do i have a windows cd) | 02:34 |
| Parsel | bank: what do you mean? | 02:34 |
| miguelonnnn | it is said that to make a disk dump (dd) you first need to u mount the device. But then, how can you dump a file if it isn't mounted? i can't get it | 02:35 |
| bankix | Parsel: Preferably as root, so enter "sudo fdisk -l" on the command line. | 02:35 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: Does it have a USB port and can it boot from USB? | 02:35 |
| mmorrow | Dr_Willis: ooh nice. so it *is* possible to boot windows from a usb key? | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: you are dumping the DEVICE.. not a filesystem on the device. | 02:35 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: yes and yes | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | mmorrow: ive heard it is. | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: and normally you do this on 'un mounted' filesystems. | 02:35 |
| jgould | I have a question about fstab: my root, /home and /boot all are mounted with the option of 'realtime' what exactly is the option of realtime? | 02:35 |
| Nubosal | Is possible to have DIrectX9 or 10 in Ubuntu? | 02:35 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: May I interest you in a Linux Live install? | 02:36 |
| miguelonnnn | ok Dr_Willis | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Nubosal: wine handles that itself. its not 'in ubuntu' its In 'wine' :) | 02:36 |
| miguelonnnn | and where is the fs mounted? Dr_Willis ? | 02:36 |
| redvamp128 | Nubosal: yes in a way-- in wine using -- something like winetricks | 02:36 |
| miguelonnnn | i know the "device" is on /dev/sda1 | 02:36 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: i've got fedora on it now, but can't seem to get the wireless card to work. so i'm now trying to install ubuntu since i've read that there's a prepackaged working solution in linux-backports-modules-jaunty | 02:36 |
| Sirmimer | **How do i install a .exe program using wine?** | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: its Not.. you are dumping the 'raw' device. which is everything to a file | 02:36 |
| Flannel | mnaines: That won't work to enable his wifi card | 02:36 |
| Nubosal | So, If I want to get completely rid of Windows with WInetricks I can play my games | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Sirmimer: wine path/to/whatever.exe is what i do | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Nubosal: wine may or may not work properly for all games. | 02:37 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: Hmm...What wi-fi card is it? | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | !appdb | Nubosal | 02:37 |
| ubottu | Nubosal: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 02:37 |
| mdg | mmorrow: what kind of wifi card you have? - just curious | 02:37 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah Dr_Willis but where is the mounted fs so i umount it? | 02:37 |
| duhi | Anyone know how to get sound in ubuntu 9.04 on a latest gen macbook pro 15"? | 02:37 |
| Sirmimer | Dr_Willis: sudo wine /home/Christian/program.exe etc? | 02:37 |
| Nubosal | Thanks | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: whever its at.. check the 'mount | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: whever its at.. check the 'mount' command | 02:37 |
| miguelonnnn | ok thanks jeheh | 02:37 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: atheros AR9285 | 02:37 |
| redvamp128 | Sirmimer: What I do is create a prefix of wine and associate it with .exe files | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Sirmimer: i never said to use 'sudo' :) you dont need sudo | 02:37 |
| mmorrow | err | 02:37 |
| jriachi | hello | 02:37 |
| mmorrow | mdg: atheros AR9285 | 02:37 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: Would you benefit from a Linksys Wireless USB Dongle? I hear Ubuntu has better compatibility with those | 02:38 |
| Sirmimer | oooh okay i think its installed now. How do i open it with wine? | 02:38 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: right, i just tried the ubuntu live usb netbook image, and that dies with "can't find module/something" | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | i find running wine whatever.exe from the command line gives me better resul;ts. because i can 'see' any error messages wine may give. | 02:38 |
| luiferares | ubuntu en español?? | 02:38 |
| Admin_ | irc://freenode/sexy%23 | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Sirmimer: wine path/to/whatever.exe | 02:38 |
| Admin_ | irc://freenode/sexy | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Sirmimer: it may have an icon in the menus | 02:38 |
| Nubosal | Sirmimer: You can do it like Windows double click, or like the doctor says | 02:38 |
| Admin_ | room sexy | 02:38 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: If you can get the exact error message, we may be able to help you with that | 02:38 |
| miguelonnnn | Dr_Willis, please tell me /dev/disk2s1 is on /Volumes/USB_XP_710 means that the device disk2s1 is mounted on the filesystem folder /volumes/usb? so i should umount /volumes/usb_xp_710¿ | 02:38 |
| redvamp128 | Sirmimer: what I do is this open - up nautilus then click the one that makes the menu into path instead of icons | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Sirmimer: and by default wine stuff instlls to a 'fake' windows setup in .wine | 02:39 |
| Admin_ | goood | 02:39 |
| Admin_ | irc://freenode/sexy | 02:39 |
| redvamp128 | then goto /.wine then find /drive_c and drag it to the left bottom and rename it as wine drive | 02:39 |
| Sirmimer | Dr_Willis, its cause i got a full installed program, on cd. And i just need to open it with wine | 02:39 |
| redvamp128 | then find the exe/s tere | 02:39 |
| Flannel | Admin_: Please stop that | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: what sort of setup you have thats using such odd names? ive never heard of anything getting mounted to /volumes/ befor. | 02:39 |
| Admin_ | coman | 02:39 |
| Admin_ | irc://freenode/sexy | 02:39 |
| Nubosal | Admin_: Invite only | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | I alwyas make a link from .wine to 'Wine' in my Home dir - makes it easier to find. :) | 02:40 |
| Admin_ | Go To irc://freenode/sexy Room Sexy | 02:40 |
| Sirmimer | redvamp128: I found the .exe file, what i do then? | 02:40 |
| miguelonnnn | its crapintosh xd, i'm trying to mount an ubuntu iso to my usb so i get rid off it | 02:40 |
| Admin_ | Go To irc://freenode/sexy Room Sexy | 02:40 |
| redvamp128 | Sirmimer: pm? | 02:40 |
| poent | how do i find the default gateway for a Internet connection? | 02:40 |
| Sirmimer | yes please | 02:40 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: retrying boot now (i build the current snapshot of the drivers from linuxwireless.org, and still no dice. i think this is a hardware-being-disabled-somehow thing) | 02:40 |
| Sirmimer | Im so confused :D | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !wine | Sirmimer | 02:40 |
| ubottu | Sirmimer: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 02:40 |
| miguelonnnn | but am i right? willis? | 02:40 |
| duhi | Is there any way to know if the ufw firewall is running at startup? im pretty sure i saw a whole lot of white text on a black background when i booted up that said ufw was NOT starting... thanks | 02:40 |
| paissad-hp | hi everybody | 02:40 |
| Sirmimer | I know what wine is, its just what i should do, when the .exe program is already installed :S | 02:40 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: as in, somehow it needs to be enabled from windows (which strikes me as a huge wtf) | 02:40 |
| mdg | mmorrow: did you say you installed 9.04? | 02:40 |
| JohnCorbeau | hi there | 02:41 |
| robert__ | is there any way to make my webcam work? i have an msi laptop and gyachi gave me error message: 'ioctl VIDEOSPICT' Could not set camera properties. any ideas? | 02:41 |
| paissad-hp | is it bad to unplug a graphic card when the computer is on power ? | 02:41 |
| jriachi | is there a vmx (vmware file) with ubuntu installed (and the drivers/vmware-tools configured) that i can download? | 02:41 |
| paissad-hp | thanks in advance | 02:41 |
| JohnCorbeau | mmorrow : what laptop model do you have? | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: you are using 'dd' on a mac machine? ive no idea where/how they mount things.. Ive no idew what you mean by mounting an 'iso' to a 'usb' | 02:41 |
| poent | paissad-hp: yes it's bad | 02:41 |
| gwildor | paissad-hp, its bad to unplug anything when computer is on power... | 02:41 |
| paissad-hp | ok thanks | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | paissad-hp: thas one way to blow a card... | 02:41 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: do you know how to configure the BIOS? | 02:41 |
| gwildor | paissad-hp, if you are asking that question.... you shouldnt have the cover off when computer is on power | 02:41 |
| poent | or a motherboard | 02:41 |
| poent | or a powersupply | 02:41 |
| duhi | Is there any way to know if the ufw firewall is running at startup? im pretty sure i saw a whole lot of white text on a black background when i booted up that said ufw was NOT starting... thanks | 02:42 |
| paissad-hp | gwildor, why ? | 02:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Unplug the PC from the wall paissad-hp when wqorking on it.. dont just 'power it off' | 02:42 |
| paissad-hp | the cover is already off | 02:42 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: yes, there doesn't seem to be any options in the bios setup related to the wireless card | 02:42 |
| RPG_Master | i00nsu, avahi-daemon? | 02:42 |
| Nubosal | If I have 2 Drives, C: and E: (In Windows), and Unbutu is installed in the main (E:) is impossible to see the files in the E: drive, right? | 02:42 |
| mnaines | duhi: Are you talking about Ubuntu's built-in firewall? | 02:42 |
| RPG_Master | That's as close a name I could find | 02:42 |
| miguelonnnn | Dr_Willis, i'm just asking if the phrase "/dev/disk2s1 is on /Volumes/XP_710" means that the device is mounted on the filsystem folder /Volumes/XP_710 | 02:42 |
| i00nsu | that is for DNS | 02:42 |
| duhi | mnaines yes | 02:42 |
| RPG_Master | oj | 02:42 |
| RPG_Master | oh | 02:42 |
| duhi | mnaines, yes | 02:43 |
| i00nsu | thats really wierd | 02:43 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: the reason i think it's hardware or something is that i just read "Wi-Fi must be enabled in Windows XP before installing UNR or else it is impossible to enable it. " here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks/ToshibaNB205 | 02:43 |
| jumbers | Does anybody know of a VPN server that's easy to set up? Doing some packet sniffing on my local network has made me paranoid of what could be accomplished in public | 02:43 |
| mnaines | duhi: I just use firestarter, as its the GUI for the kernel firewall | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: looks like it.. but those are not now linux names devices.. so i just guessing.. | 02:43 |
| poent | paissad-hp: the cover is there for a reason. It should only be off if your working on the system hardware. And if you;re working on the hardware you need to unplug and discharge the system before doing anything. Unless the task specifically requires the system to be on | 02:43 |
| mdg | mmorrow: did you say you installed 9.04 and tried the sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty? | 02:43 |
| duhi | yes but how can i know if ufw is starting at boot up | 02:43 |
| miguelonnnn | ok i'll have a little faith | 02:43 |
| duhi | Anyone know how to get sound working on ubuntu 9.04 on a latest gen 15" mbp? thanks | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | ufw is just a gui config tool that generates the proper firewall rules.. 'ufw' dosent start at boot.. the rules do. (i think i got that right) | 02:44 |
| Vox1 | Anyone know why trying to open display preferences freezes me up? Using the ATI proprietary drives. Doesn't freeze if I turn the drivers off. | 02:44 |
| miguelonnnn | i'm wishing to remove all this piece of *** OS and install a brand new xubuntu | 02:44 |
| === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log | ||
| i00nsu | I don't know how to help you RPG_Master... that should be very very simple. | 02:44 |
| mnaines | duhi: The changes you make to the Linux Kernel firewall are saved and load at bootup, so even if the GUI does not load at boot, your last saved settings do | 02:44 |
| mdg | duhi: did you try double clicking the sound icon and checking all the settings to see if they are turned up? | 02:44 |
| Nubosal | If I have 2 Drives, C: and E: (In Windows), and Unbutu is installed in the main (E:) is impossible to see the files in the E: drive, right? | 02:44 |
| RPG_Master | i00nsu, Well poop :( | 02:44 |
| mmorrow | mdg: no i was in the process of trying that when the live image errored out at boot-time | 02:44 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: Can you try the Ubuntu Desktop version and see if that works? | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Nubosal: if you mean frrom a 'wubi' install (installed inside windows) i think thats correct. | 02:45 |
| poent | how do i find the default gateway for a Internet connection? | 02:45 |
| gwildor | Nubosal, if you used ext3 for ubuntu, there is a driver for ext3.. your results may vary. | 02:45 |
| mdg | mmorrow: what kind of error? | 02:45 |
| Nubosal | Dr_Willis: Yes, I used a Wubi install. Well, Ill have to move all the E: files to my external drive | 02:45 |
| duhi | mdg, but i saw this message saying ufw was NOT starting before i even installed firestarter.. is there a way to know if its running at startup or if its not? | 02:45 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: hmm, is there any way to transfer that .iso to a usb key for boot? | 02:45 |
| Nubosal | gwildor: THanks | 02:45 |
| gwildor | Nubosal, you can also boot ubuntu, transfer files to windows... then boot windows.. | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Nubosal: i hate wubi. :) good luck withit. | 02:45 |
| younes | howto install kernel source on ubutnu | 02:45 |
| mmorrow | mdg, mnaines: one sec, trying the boot again (have to re-dd the image..) | 02:45 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: I cannot help you there...Someone else in here may be able to tell you how to do that | 02:46 |
| Flannel | mmorrow: If you have an Ubuntu install (or a CD) you can use the USB creator (under system, admin) to convert/write an ISO to a USB for booting | 02:46 |
| mmorrow | Flannel: cool, thx | 02:46 |
| Vox1 | Does anyone know a work around for the display preferences locking up my computer when have the ati proprietary drivers on? | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | that usb-creator tool is very handy :) | 02:46 |
| mnaines | Flannel, he's trying to install Ubuntu from a USB drive. He has Fedora right now, though | 02:47 |
| miguelonnnn | NO nmorrow! that's the easy way make it my way, make it by hand | 02:47 |
| miguelonnnn | i'm making the same, but with dd | 02:47 |
| miguelonnnn | and syslinux | 02:47 |
| poent | Vox1: is it locking up on boot? | 02:47 |
| miguelonnnn | you'll learn a lot more | 02:47 |
| Vox1 | no, only when I try to open display preferences | 02:47 |
| mnaines | miguelonnnn: Can you talk him through it, then? That would help | 02:47 |
| miguelonnnn | using simple programs is for lusers | 02:47 |
| jriachi | (answer to myself and for the log: in http://chrysaor.info/?page=ubuntu i can get vmx files of ubuntu) | 02:47 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah | 02:47 |
| FrozenFire[work] | Is there a way to read Nautilus' stored passwords for things like sftp and ftp? | 02:47 |
| mnaines | miguelonnnn: I am sure other people in here would benefit from the lesson as well | 02:48 |
| FrozenFire[work] | From the terminal. | 02:48 |
| miguelonnnn | i havn't done it yet though | 02:48 |
| mmorrow | miguelonnnn: ah right, /me googles for the incantation since i can't remember | 02:48 |
| lordmetroid | bug 420889 | 02:48 |
| lordmetroid | whoops | 02:48 |
| maco | miguelonnnn: not everyone needs to be a guru | 02:48 |
| miguelonnnn | but at least i know a little | 02:48 |
| poent | Vox1: If you havn't already tried redownloading the latest driver from ATI's site i would try that. | 02:48 |
| Vox1 | I'm affraid I odn't remember how to install them. Been a year or so since I've used ubu | 02:48 |
| mnaines | miguelonnnn: maco is right. As long as you have done something at least once and succeeded at it, you can teach someone else | 02:48 |
| miguelonnnn | maco, i know but info is always good | 02:48 |
| bankix | mmorrow: UNetbootin(.sf.net) will write ISO images t usb devics and make them bootable. | 02:48 |
| maco | mnaines: i also mean there's no reason that the easy way should be considered "bad" or why people who like things easy should be called losers | 02:49 |
| mdg | mmorrow: +1 for unetbootin! | 02:49 |
| miguelonnnn | and the feelling of having made a thing on your own, with little help is such a good one :) | 02:49 |
| bankix | mmorrow: Available for Windows and Linux. No installation requred, just start the binary after downloading from the homepage. | 02:49 |
| poent | Vox1: if you go to ATI's website and navigate to support/downloads you should be able to find your gfx card there | 02:49 |
| === kevdog_ is now known as kevdog | ||
| poent | From there you just need to see if its directly supported by ATI for linux | 02:49 |
| mdg | hi kevdog ! | 02:49 |
| Vox1 | I have the file downloaded, it's just getting it installed that's the problem lol | 02:49 |
| * mmorrow notes all the suggestions :) | 02:49 | |
| mnaines | maco: I still require a GUI myself for everything because of my past experience with Windows, so I agree that even "the easy way" can still be a good way | 02:49 |
| Niklas | Hey guys! I have a very nerdy question... | 02:50 |
| bankix | mmorrow: I'm using unetbootin as main tool for getting a ubuntu-based distro onto an usb stick. | 02:50 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah, but what you'll do whenever you need unetbootin and don't have internet? | 02:50 |
| mnaines | maco: Sometimes its just a matter of which feels most comfortable to the user | 02:50 |
| miguelonnnn | dd will always be there.... | 02:50 |
| malv | I have an encrypted home driver through the alternate installer. How do I reinstall Ubuntu and access the encrypted data? | 02:50 |
| malv | drive* | 02:50 |
| miguelonnnn | or cat | 02:50 |
| mdg | bankix: me too! | 02:50 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Sure. | 02:50 |
| miguelonnnn | ;) bankix | 02:50 |
| Niklas | Do anyone know where i can find the lyrics for "After darks" The Flying Toasters? | 02:50 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: But then you wouldn't see this advice ;-) | 02:50 |
| miguelonnnn | HEHEHE | 02:50 |
| Kapace | !ot | Niklas | 02:51 |
| ubottu | Niklas: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 02:51 |
| paissad-hp | i have a matter with getting images from one pc, actually, the LCD screens works nice, i tested it onto another PC, i wanted to know if the matter came from the graphic card, btw, i removed it and plugged another graphic card which works onto it, but i still have no image, so i just want to know where the matter may come from, or how to proceed in order to know the problem, thanks in advance | 02:51 |
| poent | vox1: either within the file you downloaded or on the ati website they have install instructions | 02:51 |
| mnaines | Niklas: Google, perhaps? | 02:51 |
| jgould | I'm adding a partition to my box and I'm trying to make sure that I have the fstab set right. I have /dev/sda1 /srv ext3 realtime 0 2 I think that's what I want for this share, any input? | 02:51 |
| mnaines | jgould: What are you trying to set up> | 02:51 |
| mnaines | ? | 02:51 |
| exapid_ | What's a good irc client (GUI) that can connect to multiple servers? | 02:52 |
| Flannel | exapid_: Most people like xchat | 02:52 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Is there anything on the screen after the bios when booting? | 02:52 |
| jinnstar | exapid if you want easy: xchat. if you want flexible irssi | 02:52 |
| jgould | it's the partition that was fat32 so I could migrate around 400 GB of data to the new linux servier | 02:52 |
| mdg | exapid_: +1 for irssi! | 02:52 |
| catmando | exapid, Xchat | 02:52 |
| exapid_ | Yeah I dont mind chat, just cant find how to get multiple servers going | 02:52 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, i even don't see the bios on the screen | 02:52 |
| mnaines | exapid_ I haven't tried it with Pidgin, but I can do that here...Just a sec | 02:52 |
| exapid_ | I use irssi now XD | 02:52 |
| paissad-hp | i see nothing | 02:52 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Or is just the graphical desktop missing and you get stuck with a text console? | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | jgould: you wish to mount the fileysstem on /dev/sda1 to the location /srv - that looks bout right.. You may want to try diffrent options (i dont recall what realtime does) | 02:52 |
| catmando | exapid, Xchat | 02:52 |
| maco | exapid_: irssi can do that | 02:52 |
| Parsley | Can I start an Ubuntu install on an external HDD from within an already installed and working version of Ubuntu? I want to skip the LiveCD | 02:52 |
| maco | exapid_: instead of /server use /connect | 02:53 |
| miguelonnnn | well let's start. Disk drives are divided in physical sectors. A hard disk consists of a number of disks named platters, which are read on both sides by "heads" a kind of laser's . Each side is divided in concentric circles named tracks, and each track is divided in the forementioned sectors | 02:53 |
| exapid_ | I'm already doing it in irssi :) | 02:53 |
| bboru | has anyone heard of a solution to the kodak easyshare compatibility issue with linux? i would love to get it working. | 02:53 |
| catmando | well exapid Xchat is the best. | 02:53 |
| jinnstar | exapid, for xchat just click the xchat menu and choose network list | 02:53 |
| exapid_ | Want a gui ^_^ and cant work out how to setup multiple servers in xchat | 02:53 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: No bios screen either? Is the monitor definitely working? | 02:53 |
| catmando | sudo apt-get xchat | 02:53 |
| SDuensin | Good evening all. Anyone have a few minutes to point me in the right direction with some networking issues? I need to do the following: 10.x.x.x --> 192.168.0.x --> Internet | 02:53 |
| catmando | install* | 02:53 |
| mnaines | exapid_: You should be able to do it in Pidgin as well. I don't see why pidgin won't let you | 02:53 |
| Niklas | Parsley, do the DD command in terminal to copy into ext HDD | 02:53 |
| exapid_ | I have xchat, how do I get multiple servers through it? | 02:53 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, the monitor is working nice, | 02:53 |
| poent | paissad-hp: sounds like you either have driver issues or motherboard issues. | 02:53 |
| Flannel | exapid_: /connect [server] should work | 02:53 |
| Parsley | ok nik | 02:53 |
| jinnstar | exapid, for xchat just click the xchat menu and choose network list | 02:53 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: How do you know? | 02:53 |
| Niklas | No probs Parsley | 02:54 |
| paissad-hp | poent, bankix the matter is not the monitor, not the graphic card too | 02:54 |
| mnaines | Parsley: Is Ubuntu already installed on the drive or are you trying to install it on the drive through Ubuntu? | 02:54 |
| Niklas | Parsley, if your new, try just "dd --help" | 02:54 |
| mmorrow | so the error the netbook img booted from a usbkey dies with is (and this is after the selection screen "boot from usbkey, install to harddrive, verify, etc"): "modprobe: FATAL Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/modules.dep: No such file or directory" | 02:54 |
| kevdog | Anyone know anything about bcmwl-kernel-source | 02:54 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Why is there no bios screen then? | 02:54 |
| poent | paissad-hp: i said driver or motherboard not graphics card | 02:54 |
| paissad-hp | poent, ok | 02:54 |
| halberd | I seem to be having a problem playing a dvd | 02:54 |
| halberd | it is playing but very slowly | 02:54 |
| Parsley | mnaines:second one | 02:54 |
| halberd | like 2 fps | 02:54 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: Have you tried the Ubuntu Desktop image? | 02:55 |
| halberd | and dvds have played fine before | 02:55 |
| mdg | mmorrow: did you USB key boot on any other machines? | 02:55 |
| poent | paissad-hp, does your motherboard have an onboard video card? | 02:55 |
| robert__ | is there any way to make my webcam work? i have an msi laptop and gyachi gave me error message: 'ioctl VIDEOSPICT' Could not set camera properties. any ideas? | 02:55 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, don't know how to explain that, but when i plug the monitor, i see nothing :) | 02:55 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Is there a second graphics card or onboard monitor connector? | 02:55 |
| miguelonnnn | operating systems reside on those sectors. When bootstraping the system, the processor calls a little ROM memory installed at the chip, named BIOS,which in turn after a hardware test (POST) looks for a drive. When it founds one, it'll read it's first sector, looking for what it's called an active partition, flagged with an 0x80 hex mark | 02:55 |
| mnaines | mdg: Its a problem with his netbook's wi-fi card... | 02:55 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, no | 02:55 |
| poent | paissad-hp, sounds like a motherboard | 02:55 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: There absolutely must be a bios screen. | 02:55 |
| Vox1 | Thanks Poent | 02:56 |
| mdg | mnaines: sorry was unclear he got the computer booted to a desktop... | 02:56 |
| poent | vox1: yw vox | 02:56 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: If not, it might be something wrong with the bios or the board or another component. | 02:56 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, i promise that i even get the bios screen :) | 02:56 |
| maco | bankix: my laptop has an option for "fast boot" to not show the full bios screen | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | it still shows a post msg or 2 i belive... | 02:56 |
| Parsley | Am I supposed to copy my entire HDD image over to the blank HDD using dd? | 02:56 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, don't get * | 02:56 |
| mnaines | mdg: His netbook wi-fi card had to be enabled through Windows before it could be used, but he didn't enable it before uninstalling Windows, and now he can't get it working | 02:56 |
| maco | bankix: so it flashes the intel logo in the bottom right corner momentarily and starts to boot without even saying the "press f2 for setup" stuff | 02:56 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: I'm puzzeled now. | 02:56 |
| miguelonnnn | if it don'est found anyone, it'll search for another disk, if it finds, it'll execute a binary code recorded at it's first sector of that drive, which will point to a loader. In linux it's called grub, or lilo or anyone else. That loader will finally let you choose what you wan't to load. | 02:57 |
| mdg | mnaines: I got that part - I thought he had trouble booting into ubuntu as well as a problem with wifi card... | 02:57 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: When you power on your PC, is there a bios screen on your monitor, or could you enter the bios setup? | 02:57 |
| kevdog | openfwwf == anyone using it for the bcm cards? | 02:57 |
| mnaines | mdg: Yes, he tried the Ubuntu Netbook Remix with no success, so I suggested Ubuntu Desktop | 02:57 |
| mmorrow | mnaines: not yet, downloading the desktop version | 02:57 |
| jgould | F2, F10 and Del are the common keys to try to get into the bios | 02:57 |
| bankix | maco: But there is something on your screen. At least the logo. It's not totally blank. | 02:58 |
| maco | F12 too | 02:58 |
| mmorrow | mdg: i haven't tried booting from that image on any other machines | 02:58 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, no i can't | 02:58 |
| mmorrow | mdg: that's a good idea though | 02:58 |
| maco | bankix: true. annoying that i had to smack keys til one worked though ;) | 02:58 |
| * Dr_Willis wishes these MB makers would all agree on what F keys for what features.. its annoying haveing to rember its Del for this box.. but F2 for this other one... | 02:58 | |
| jgould | yes, F12 also :D | 02:58 |
| mnaines | mmorrow: It probably will not give you the results you want, however | 02:58 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, it's totally blank | 02:58 |
| miguelonnnn | so in order for you to make a bootable usb , you must dump an iso cd mounted onto your system to an usb, and make that piece of code and put the loader syslinux or grub or any other else into it, so when your bios looks for your drive active flag it founds it, and loads the grub which will load linux | 02:58 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Okay. Got that. | 02:58 |
| mdg | mmorrow: how did you make the USB key you were trying to boot from? | 02:59 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: You could try to remove all RAM modules. Then the mainboard should beep a lot at power on. | 02:59 |
| miguelonnnn | to make it , it's easy, just mount -t iso9660 /dev/yourcdrom | 02:59 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: If not, I'd think of a defective mainboard. | 02:59 |
| a1 | Does anyone know where i can get blue ray support? | 02:59 |
| bankix | a1: In which way "support"? | 02:59 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, i first try removing ram modules | 02:59 |
| miguelonnnn | then dd if=/media/yourMountPoint of=/yourUsbFAT16orFAT32FormatedUsbDrive | 02:59 |
| mmorrow | mdg: that one is an "asdf.img", which apparently is a directly-dd-to-a-usb-key-able img | 03:00 |
| dihi | Anyone know how to disable bluetooth on 9.04? (im using a macbook pro btw if thats relevant) | 03:00 |
| mnaines | paissad-hp: Remove the RAM modules then replace them one at a time to see which one is causing it | 03:00 |
| mmorrow | mdg: whereas the desktop one is an .iso | 03:00 |
| a1 | Getting codex and recognizing the drive itself | 03:00 |
| miguelonnnn | finally, run fdisk and there you can make it bootable and write an mbr sector (the first sector i said before, which will map your hardrive so bIOS can read it) | 03:00 |
| bankix | a1: The drive should show up as normal DVD writer/reader drive. | 03:01 |
| IdleOne | what can I use to split a large .iso file? | 03:01 |
| mdg | never used as asdf.img... | 03:01 |
| bankix | a1: Without any modifications. | 03:01 |
| mmorrow | mdg: heh | 03:01 |
| mdg | as/an | 03:01 |
| mmorrow | mdg: s/asdf.img/ubuntu-9.04-netbook-remix-i386.img/ | 03:01 |
| miguelonnnn | and that's all, now you can make it on your own, without the need of unetbootin and such programs, which are good for repetitive tasks, but can't beat the work made by oneself | 03:01 |
| a1 | so what do I do to make it recognize it as a blue ray drive? if its possible | 03:01 |
| mnaines | dihi: System>Preferences>Main Menu>Preferences>Bluetooth then uncheck the box | 03:01 |
| miguelonnnn | did you get it nmorrow? | 03:02 |
| mdg | mmorrow: how do you prepare the USB for that? | 03:02 |
| dihi | mnaimes that sounds like it simply removes the icon from the panel... not turns it off.. | 03:03 |
| mmorrow | mdg: sudo dd if=ubuntu-9.04-netbook-remix-i386.img of=/dev/sdb | 03:03 |
| miguelonnnn | exactly | 03:03 |
| miguelonnnn | i'm fond you got it hehe | 03:03 |
| miguelonnnn | anything else, just ask | 03:03 |
| miguelonnnn | i'm happy to help | 03:03 |
| mnaines | dihi, is it a laptop? | 03:03 |
| bankix | a1: For the system, there is no difference between a normal DVD drive and a BluRay drive. | 03:03 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, i've removed all ram modules, i booted, but i have no beep, nothing | 03:03 |
| Parsley | Is it feasible to fix the bugs generated from installing Ubuntu on one computer, then putting the HDD in another computer with different hardware? | 03:03 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: I fear you have a dead mainboard... | 03:04 |
| a1 | What do i need to do before it will play the movie? | 03:04 |
| miguelonnnn | hey Dr_Willis are u ther? | 03:04 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Are there any LEDs on your board? E.g. at the network connector? | 03:04 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, let me check | 03:04 |
| bankix | a1: So you're able to mount BluRay discs the same way as normal DVDs. | 03:04 |
| alinicric | Anyone know of a webcam to apache page streaming program? | 03:05 |
| dihi | mnaime yes a macbook pro | 03:05 |
| jMyles | I want to, for all future logins, disable compiz and enable metacity. I want to do this from the CLI. Effectively, I want to set preferences -> Appearance -> Visual Effects to none from the CLI. How can I do this? | 03:05 |
| a1 | No not at all | 03:05 |
| a1 | but it will recognize regular CDs and DVD's | 03:05 |
| bankix | a1: Ah. Okay. What happens when inserting a quite normal DVD into that drive. Will this show up? | 03:05 |
| miguelonnnn | nice question jMyles let's see if anybody know it hehe i'm intersted too | 03:06 |
| bankix | a1: Ah, it doesn't recognize BluRays. | 03:06 |
| a1 | when vista was previously installed, it played'em without a hitch | 03:06 |
| mnaines | Parsley: Generally, the answer is no...Most operating system installs are set for the hardware on the machine they are originally installed on. However, if you do a live install, you can do that | 03:06 |
| Lythande | greetings, anyone has info or a script about iostat used for checking activity of a partition? idea behind it : want to automatically set the pc to halt of no traffic is on that partition. other solutions welcome | 03:06 |
| bankix | a1: What kind of BluRays did you put in? | 03:06 |
| bankix | a1: Films? | 03:06 |
| MrKeuner | hello, how can I limit the memory a certain application can use? | 03:06 |
| a1 | i've tried several, mostly blockbuster flavors | 03:06 |
| a1 | nothing brand new though | 03:06 |
| maco | jMyles: i think somewhere in gconf. lemme look it up | 03:07 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, no | 03:07 |
| paissad-hp | no led | 03:07 |
| paissad-hp | the motherboard's dead :-( | 03:07 |
| bankix | a1: The films are copy protected. You can't read them without some very strange software. | 03:07 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: No LEDs at all? | 03:07 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Not even link LEDs on your ethernet port? | 03:08 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, no led when i plug the RJ45 ethernet | 03:08 |
| a1 | i'm aware that it needs special DRM keys and etc. | 03:08 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Ah, there are LEDs, but they are not lit, correct? | 03:08 |
| bankix | a1: Indeed. | 03:08 |
| a1 | but the Dell studio XPS 1640 is also shipped with ubuntu and has support for blu-ray | 03:09 |
| bankix | a1: Sorry that I'm not able to help you with that special topic. | 03:09 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, lit ?? | 03:09 |
| a1 | i can't find any documentation though in regards to it | 03:09 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: There are LEDs, but none of them is illuminated/flashing. | 03:09 |
| paissad-hp | bankix, it should have the green and orange led blinking or something like that, but nothing ! | 03:09 |
| bankix | paissad-hp: Okay. If you're lucky, it's just a matter of the power supply. Under-voltage or something. | 03:10 |
| Parsley | ok, something is weird with my unetbootin now, it skips extraction of files as if i dont have 7zip, but i know i do | 03:10 |
| ctmjr | a1: see if this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD say's it's for 8.10 so might be old | 03:10 |
| Flannel | alinicric: There's a few of them. Search the repos for "webcam" and you'll get a bunch. | 03:10 |
| bankix | Parsley: Just install that package. | 03:11 |
| Parsley | install 7zip? | 03:11 |
| a1 | ctmjr: i've seen that link, but its not much help | 03:11 |
| bankix | Parsley: Yes. | 03:11 |
| Parsley | it's in my add/remove list already, i think it's installed | 03:11 |
| maco | jMyles: ok so i *think* this will output the current wm: gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/current | 03:12 |
| maco | jMyles: and to set it to metacity: gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/current "metacity" | 03:13 |
| maco | jMyles: that help? | 03:13 |
| bankix | parsley: You need the package 7zip-full. | 03:13 |
| mnaines | If I am going to do system and network administration, what programs do I need? | 03:13 |
| Parsley | ah ok | 03:13 |
| jMyles | maco: You are correct that the first command gave me my current wm | 03:13 |
| bankix | parsley: Try "dpkg -l 7zip-full" to see the status of that package. | 03:13 |
| nnull | mnaines, if you use Synaptic there even a Tab just for that, even Add/Remove has it i believe | 03:14 |
| Parsley | ya none found, gotta get the full one i see | 03:14 |
| maco | jMyles: hmm or maybe its /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/default that you should set..... mine is "/usr/bin/xmonad" because its what i use, but i guess "/usr/bin/metacity" if thats what you want. well if current doesnt do it, try that one. one of the two should get it | 03:15 |
| mnaines | nnull: are there any specific programs that will help? | 03:15 |
| jMyles | maco: "must specify a type when setting a value" | 03:16 |
| lowlycoder | i want to buy a tablet for linux; but it doesn't need 2048 levels of sensistivity like wacom; in fact~ just a few levels like 8 or so would suffice | 03:16 |
| nnull | mnaines, what are you trying to do? | 03:16 |
| nnull | mnaines, specifically | 03:16 |
| mdg | mmorrow: how is it going? | 03:17 |
| maco | jMyles: --type=string | 03:17 |
| maco | mnaines: you need a shell. and you need to learn to use it. linux and unix servers dont have guis | 03:17 |
| mnaines | nnull: Well, basically, I started up my own computer company and I plan to offer a variety of services ranging from simple maintenance to system and network security to disaster recovery to data backup/encryption and secure storage and file deletion | 03:17 |
| jMyles | maco: Yeah, I figured that after a quick bout of googling. :-) | 03:17 |
| maco | jMyles: ok | 03:18 |
| bankix | maco: Interesting idea. | 03:18 |
| bankix | maco: Did it work out good? | 03:18 |
| maco | bankix: what? | 03:19 |
| bankix | maco: Your company. | 03:19 |
| maco | bankix: mnaines dude | 03:19 |
| mnaines | maco: Most of the systems I would be dealing with would be Windows machines | 03:19 |
| mmorrow | mdg: i'm sidetracked with something else for a bit, but my plan is to get the desktop .iso (x86_64, since this little laptop has an athlon64) onto a usbkey bootably (a word?;), and see if i can get ubuntu installed that way. if that works i'm going to try the linux-backports-modules-jaunty pkg. | 03:19 |
| Parsley | sudo apt-get install 7zip-full did not find any, am i supposed to use p7zip-full? | 03:19 |
| maco | bankix: my business idea is very low tech | 03:19 |
| bankix | Parsley: Yes. Or just use Synaptic. | 03:19 |
| mnaines | bankix: I just started it up, so I haven't had any interest yet...One person called to inquire about the services I offer, but I haven't been able to reach him to return his call | 03:20 |
| mmorrow | mdg: i'll report back with the outcome, however it goes | 03:20 |
| GatorAlli | How do you get packages from a list? eg. ("aconnectgui alsa-tools alsa-tools-gui audacity audacious") without having to enter each? | 03:20 |
| bankix | mnaines: Then good luck! | 03:20 |
| mdg | mmorrow: good luck - looking forward to your report :) | 03:20 |
| simpatico | <º))) )>< hola ><(((( º> | 03:20 |
| Parsley | ok, pzip-full installed, so i guess unetbootin is fine now. i used it to put super grub on an empty HDD, then when I tried booting from said HDD, computer turns itself off instantly | 03:20 |
| mmorrow | mdg: thanks! :) | 03:21 |
| bazhang | !es | simpatico | 03:21 |
| ubottu | simpatico: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 03:21 |
| JohnCorbeau | mnaines: as I'll be doing the same very soon, good luck! | 03:21 |
| mnaines | bankix: Thanks. I am trying to get used to CLI, but I moved to Linux from Windows and am not used to CLI. I still need a GUI to help me | 03:21 |
| jMyles | ....sorry, how to restart X from the CLI? | 03:21 |
| bankix | mnaines: CLI = command line interface? Or something different? | 03:21 |
| jMyles | bankix: yep | 03:22 |
| mdg | mnaines: I'm learning CLI too - been using an INX live CD for the basics | 03:22 |
| mnaines | bankix: Aff...I need to learn that | 03:22 |
| Ahadiel | jMyles, sudo /etc/rc.d/?dm restart | 03:22 |
| bankix | mnaines: Indeed, you'll have to get very familiar with the cli. | 03:22 |
| bankix | jMyles: Real question? How to restart X? | 03:22 |
| mnaines | bankix: I only recently came to Linux (I have been using Linux full-time since July 1), so I still need a GUI to help me | 03:23 |
| jMyles | bankix: Are you asking me? :-) Because I'm asking that right now./ | 03:23 |
| bankix | jMyles: I wanted to know if this is a real question. Seems to be. | 03:23 |
| bastidrazor | jMyles, type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 03:23 |
| mostafa_ | how can I use samba to share files? | 03:23 |
| bankix | jMyles: bastidrazor was faster than me. | 03:23 |
| poent | dont use samba | 03:24 |
| poent | its a pain in the ass | 03:24 |
| bankix | mostafa_: Just install system-config-samba via synaptic. | 03:24 |
| poent | mostafa_, are you using 9.04? | 03:24 |
| jMyles | bastidrazor: That restarts X? I'd think that would only restart gnome. | 03:24 |
| bankix | mostafa_: Then select "Samba" from the system settings menu. | 03:24 |
| mostafa_ | poent: yeah | 03:24 |
| Jooder492 | Why does Ubuntu make my access my internet very slow and any other OS runs the internet fast? | 03:24 |
| bastidrazor | jMyles, that restarts X. | 03:24 |
| Ahadiel | jMyles, gdm/kdm start X | 03:24 |
| bankix | jMyles: bastidrazor is right. | 03:24 |
| mnaines | JohnCorbeau: My advice: Try to separate yourself from the competition. The way I do that is in the business strategy - I work by myself, which helps me ensure the best possible quality | 03:25 |
| mostafa_ | bankix: I install it via this command "sudo apt-get install samba" | 03:25 |
| poent | mostafa_, just make a folder that you wanna share andright click it. then go to sharing options | 03:25 |
| mostafa_ | bankix: is it right? | 03:25 |
| Jooder492 | Why does Ubuntu make my access my internet very slow and any other OS runs the internet fast? | 03:25 |
| jMyles | Hmmm, the solution proposed by Maco to disable visual effects (essentially make metacity the default instead of compiz) from the CLI was not effectual. | 03:25 |
| bankix | mostafa_: Nope, the packae is named system-config-samba. | 03:25 |
| bankix | mostafa_: So "sudo apt-get install system-config-samba". | 03:25 |
| mostafa_ | bankix: ok thnx | 03:25 |
| bankix | Jooder492: GIgabit ethernet or 100MBit/s? | 03:26 |
| mostafa_ | bankix: k I get it then what should i do? | 03:27 |
| poent | mostafa_, i'm telling you samba isnt the way to go | 03:27 |
| bankix | mostafa_: Have a look at you system settings menu in the system menu. | 03:28 |
| bankix | mostafa_: There you'll find samba. This will help you configuring your shares. | 03:28 |
| bankix | mostafa_: Of course, here are different solutions sharing files. | 03:29 |
| mostafa_ | bankix: I can't find it can I use it by a command? | 03:30 |
| bankix | mostafa_: you can. the command is system-config-samba | 03:30 |

| Parsley | I wish to make a a partition on a HDD to boot Ubuntu installation from, basically store the LiveCD on a seperate partition on a HDD without anything on it, so when computer starts, it goes to grub and asks me to install Ubuntu. What do I need to do besides use Unetbootin to place the LiveCD image and bootloader on to this "recovery partition"? (Did this and said "missing OS") | 03:31 |
| Jooder492 | why is my ubuntu internet slow? | 03:31 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Gigabit or 100MBIt/s ethernet? | 03:32 |
| Jooder492 | ? im on wireless. it dosent matter if im wired or not | 03:32 |
| bankix | Parsley: You want to boot the ISO image? | 03:32 |
| Parsley | ya | 03:32 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Okay. | 03:32 |
| bankix | Parsley: No way AFAIK. | 03:32 |
| hajar | hi .. can any one give me software for blind people? | 03:32 |
| Parsley | 03:32 | |
| bankix | Jooder492: Which is you network device? wlan0? something different? | 03:33 |
| nnull | hajar, lookup braille | 03:33 |
| Jooder492 | i only seem to have problems on my network though. i have completly reset my router and everything. what settings do i need to change? | 03:33 |
| nnull | hajar, not to sure otherwise :s | 03:33 |
| mdg | jMyles: have you tried gconf-editor? | 03:33 |
| maco | jMyles: dang. maybe thats what that "note: deprecated" meant. so it must live somewhere else... | 03:33 |
| maco | mdg: either i gave him the wrong gconf key or its not in gconf | 03:33 |
| bankix | Jooder492: I did get that. What is you network device for wlan? | 03:33 |
| mostafa_ | bankix: K I opened it then what to do? | 03:33 |
| Parsley | bankix: can it work if I actually extract the ISO to the recovery partition? I don't understand why having the install files and a boot loader doesnt work... | 03:34 |
| bankix | mostafa_: Configure your samba. Sorry, no samba basics lesson today... | 03:34 |
| hajar | thanks nnull ... I need software to say the name of place where the cursor on .. in ubuntu | 03:34 |
| Jooder492 | im useing a linksys router | 03:34 |
| poent | mostafa_, add a share. Create a new folder in your home directory or user dir | 03:34 |
| bazhang | hajar, you mean something like a screen reader? gnome-orca does that | 03:34 |
| bankix | Parsley: Another question: Why not installing Ubuntu on that second partition? | 03:34 |
| hajar | yrd bazhang | 03:35 |
| hajar | yes | 03:35 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Okay, a linksys. But what I need to know is the networking device name in Ubuntu. | 03:35 |
| Parsley | bankix: I want to, but my LiveCD is corrupted | 03:35 |
| jMyles | mdg: But where oh where? | 03:35 |
| bazhang | hajar, the package name is gnome-orca | 03:35 |
| bankix | Jooder492: You get a list of them (and their settings) when calling "ifconfig" on the comman line. | 03:35 |
| Jooder492 | ok just a second | 03:35 |
| Parsley | bankix: I made a LiveCD on a DVD and on a Flash Drive, both came out corrupted, both using manually downloaded 9.04 LiveCD ISO | 03:36 |
| mdg | jMyles: gconf-editor: Desktop> Gnome> Applications> Window Manager and change default to metacity from compiz | 03:36 |
| Jooder492 | sorry im kinda new at ubuntu | 03:36 |
| hajar | thanks bazhang | 03:36 |
| bazhang | Parsley, you need to md5 the iso and re download if it is corrupt | 03:36 |
| Parsley | I mean they worked up to a point then froze up installation | 03:36 |
| bazhang | !md5 | Parsley | 03:36 |
| bankix | Parsley: Did you check the checksums before writing them? | 03:36 |
| ubottu | Parsley: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 03:36 |
| Parsley | ok | 03:36 |
| bankix | Jooder492: No problem. Just open a terminal, then enter "ifconfig" | 03:37 |
| mostafa_ | poent: I've done that and you mean each folder I wanna share I add it with "Add Share" | 03:37 |
| catmando | !ifconfig | 03:37 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ifconfig | 03:37 |

| Jooder492 | this is all im getting "bash: ipconfig: command not found | 03:37 |

| poent | mostafa_, are you trying to share it with awindows computer over the network? | 03:37 |
| bankix | Jooder492: In the second column is a block with the settings of the device listed on the left. | 03:37 |
| idiot_newbie | Anyone out there have any success getting Catalyst::Devel installed on Ubuntu? | 03:38 |
| Jooder492 | oops... use to windows. second | 03:38 |
| mostafa_ | poent: yeah yeah exactly I want to say that | 03:38 |
| bankix | Jooder492: I need the contents of the left column, so eth0, wlan0, lo, whatever shows up there. | 03:38 |
| idiot_newbie | Catalyst :: Devel | 03:38 |
| nnull | Jooder492, or if that becomes too problematic, "alias ipconfig='ifconfig'" | 03:38 |
| nnull | :) | 03:38 |
| poent | mostafa_, what version of windows are you using? | 03:38 |
| RPG_Master | I used the pre-config settings for deluge with the Firewall app GUFW... but then I change deluge's ports and now when I press the button it just adds the old ports... how do I fix this? | 03:38 |
| miguelonnnn | hey 1 question please, i read that to dd my usb, i need to umount it first, but if i umount the mount point, the disk gets umounted too. How can i umount just the filesystem? | 03:39 |
| jMyles | mdg: well now I am. I can't seem to connect via SSH. | 03:39 |
| Jooder492 | you need all the contents that are beside the eth0 and the lo? | 03:39 |
| mostafa_ | I have 2 PCs one with vista and the other one with XP | 03:39 |
| Jooder492 | thats all thats listed is the eth0 and lo | 03:39 |
| mostafa_ | poent: I have 2 PCs one with vista and the other one with XP | 03:39 |
| mdg | jMyles: oh you are doing this on another machine? | 03:39 |
| jMyles | mdg: yep. | 03:39 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Okay, eth0 and lo. | 03:39 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Below etho, is there some "inet address" followed by an IP address? | 03:40 |
| mdg | jMyles: and you don't want to start X on that machine to fix this, right? | 03:40 |
| poent | mostafa_, on the vista computers you'll need to dissable password protected sharing in the network configurations | 03:40 |
| jMyles | mdg: true. | 03:40 |
| poent | mostafa_, otherwise after rebooting the ubuntu system the share should be set up | 03:40 |
| jMyles | mdg: Well, it seems that compiz is messing the machine up. I don't mind starting X and using X forwarding. | 03:40 |
| Parsley | ubottu: what do I do with the numbers in the download link provided on that first page you showed? I don't get how that downloads md5; sudo apt-get md5 or md5sums didnt work | 03:40 |
| ubottu | I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:40 |
| jMyles | mdg: But I can use gconftool-2 instead of gconf-editor, no? | 03:41 |
| poent | mostafa_, i had issues setting up the network share, which is why i did it the other way and used the sharing option thats built into ubuntu | 03:41 |
| Jooder492 | inet addr:10.0.2.15 Bcast:10.0.2.255 | 03:41 |

| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: dd if=/dev/DEVICENAME of=outputfile the device does not in any way need to me mounted. check sudo fdisk -l - to tell what the device name is | 03:41 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: As long the device is connected, there is a device name associated. Such as /dev/sdb1 or simmilar. | 03:41 |
| mostafa_ | poent: it has no difficulty with xp? | 03:41 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Great. Is that your wireless IP adress? | 03:41 |
| Jooder492 | yea | 03:41 |
| TeslaTrav | anyone good with LIRC? | 03:41 |
| Jooder492 | im running this on vertualbox right now if that makes a diffrance | 03:41 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah but when i umount it /dev/devicename gets out too | 03:42 |
| poent | mostafa_, no windows xp doesnt demand a password to login with like vista and windows 7 do | 03:42 |
| bankix | Jooder492: In that block, below the IP adress, there is a "MTU:" followed by a number. Which number? Probably 1500. | 03:42 |
| RPG_Master | I used the pre-config settings for deluge with the Firewall app GUFW... but then I change deluge's ports and now when I press the button it just adds the old ports... how do I fix this? | 03:42 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: When you just unmount a drive, the device handle will not get lost. | 03:42 |
| mdg | jMyles: I've not used gconftool2 before - where did you find it? | 03:42 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: see if 'fdisk -l' shows the device.. You can 'dd' things while they are mounted.. just be sure to not access it any othe way at the same tiome | 03:42 |
| Jooder492 | yes it is 1500 | 03:42 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah it gets :S sadly | 03:42 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Only when removing the device physically it gets lost. | 03:42 |
| mostafa_ | poent: thanks bro and another question how can i share sth from windows and get it from ubuntu? | 03:43 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: use the umount command, not the icon/safely/remove/eject option | 03:43 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Okay. Then try "sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 999" Please no typing errors. | 03:43 |
| miguelonnnn | i can't ummount by umount | 03:43 |
| miguelonnnn | i just can do it the "remove button" way | 03:43 |
| mdg | jMyles: you want to use gconf2 | 03:43 |
| catmando | try umount -f | 03:43 |
| miguelonnnn | it's impossible | 03:43 |
| catmando | miguelonnnn, try umount -f | 03:43 |
| ASShole | hi | 03:43 |
| miguelonnnn | some processes are running on my disk | 03:43 |
| bankix | Jooder492: This will lower your MTU (maximum transfer unit) to 999 bytes, which is a number guessed by random. | 03:43 |
| miguelonnnn | i kill them but reappear | 03:44 |
| catmando | ASShole, hi! | 03:44 |
| bankix | Jooder492: So ubuntu will sen smaller packages. | 03:44 |
| miguelonnnn | ok catmando | 03:44 |
| === novneb is now known as zz_novneb | ||

| mdg | jMyles: or did you already install that | 03:44 |
| bankix | Jooder492: If this helps a bit, you can increase the number, close to 1500, till you get a good performance. | 03:44 |
| mandara | How to download 2.0 branch with bzr? thnx | 03:45 |

| miguelonnnn | i did itttttttt | 03:45 |
| Jooder492 | ok thank you. i will see if that helped | 03:45 |
| bankix | Jooder492: Some routers wil create empty packages when ubuntu sends 1500 bytes packages, which will slow down the transfer a lot. | 03:45 |

| bazhang | Abdullah9, ask a question | 03:47 |
| bankix | Jooder492: If you did find the best value for your router, edit your connections via network manager (the signal strength symbol in the upper right panel) via right-click, in the first register card there is the setting "MTU". | 03:47 |
| RPG_Master | someone :( | 03:47 |

| ubajas | Ubuntu 9.04 with all updates. System - Preferences - Keyboard. Disabling "Cursor blinks in text fields" no longer works, nor does adjusting the cursor's blinking speed. No desktop effects. Not exactly sure when it started (ie. can't say "right after applying this update"). Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot it? | 03:48 |
| bankix | tomlikestorock: You want a bootable USB stick with ubuntu on it? | 03:48 |
| veinor | Why doesn't sudo apt-get build-dep mpd work? :/ | 03:48 |
| poent | mostafa_, you should see the windows computers on the same subnet in there. just use a username and password (if its vista, if its xp you shouldn''t need a password) and you'll be all set | 03:49 |
| tomlikestorock | bankix: yup | 03:49 |

| miguelonnnn | but dd directly from the iso image? without mounting it? | 03:55 |
| Flannel | miguelonnnn: Yes | 03:55 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: But with a CD, it shold work also mounted. | 03:55 |
| Abdullah9 | plsssss | 03:55 |
| yinlong | Abdullah9,what's the matter? | 03:55 |
| miguelonnnn | will dd know how is an iso image interally without setting a file system for it ? | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: that wont work. | 03:55 |
| Abdullah9 | i have a proplem , : Ok , i am trying to install a driver " rt2870 " , for my wirless card , when i plug it into the USB port nothing hapend, | 03:55 |
| miguelonnnn | it isn't a cd, is a downloaded iso in my computer | 03:55 |
| bazhang | Abdullah9, please keep questions in here, ie not via PM; if someone knows they will answer. | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | You dont just 'dd' or copy an iso to a flash and make it bootable. theres other things needed | 03:56 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: dd doesn't know anything about filesystems. | 03:56 |
| Abdullah9 | OK, | 03:56 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: And it doesn't care for it either. | 03:56 |
| miguelonnnn | ok i know i need more things to do drwillis | 03:56 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: All dd does is to read data from one file and write it to another file. | 03:56 |
| Abdullah9 | so you don't now ? | 03:56 |
| yinlong | Abdullah9,sorry ,i am always using ubuntu without any driver. | 03:56 |
| miguelonnnn | first i need to format it and then make it fat32 | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: check out 'pendrivelinux.com' web site.. or use unetbootin tool. | 03:56 |
| Abdullah9 | when i plug it , nothing happend ?! | 03:57 |
| miguelonnnn | i know that Dr_Willis , but i want do it manually | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | You have to put a boot loader and get the proper kernel and initrd on there for starters.. then i dont even know IF they can handle a .iso file on the disk | 03:57 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: So dd writes byte per byte into a file or onto a device. Wiping any previous informations, inlcuding filesystems etc. | 03:57 |
| miguelonnnn | my plans are format usb to fat32, dd the iso to it, and then install syslinux | 03:57 |
| miguelonnnn | won't that work? | 03:57 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: No. | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: the pendrivelinux site often has guides on doing it 'manually' or with scripts that do the commands. | 03:57 |
| miguelonnnn | why | 03:57 |
| mdg | poyntz: what do you mean "click" - just curious | 03:57 |
| eurythmia_ | so ... anybody know any reasons why I might not be able to connect to gmail with firefox-3.5, arora, *or* links2? | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: formating, then 'dd' will erase the formating... you are going in circles | 03:58 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Formatting and writing the image afterwards will destroy the formatting. So save the time or formatting. | 03:58 |
| main_ | أهلا | 03:58 |
| miguelonnnn | why will dd erase it? | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: because 'dd' is a IMAGE dump of a filesystem. | 03:58 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Because dd just writes bytes. | 03:58 |
| miguelonnnn | ok | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | you could 'dd' a floppy disk to a flash drive.. and it wouldent be bootable. :) | 03:58 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: dd won't copy files, it will copy pure data. | 03:59 |
| Abdullah9 | SO any one can tell me where i can find " os/linux/config.mk " | 03:59 |
| Abdullah9 | SO any one can tell me where i can find " os/linux/config.mk " | 03:59 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Byte per byte, sector per sector | 03:59 |

| ubottu | File config.mk found in dmake, gnustep-make, ivtools-dev, kernel-package, r-base-core (and 1 others) | 03:59 |

| catmando | !package | 03:59 |
| ubottu | You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 03:59 |
| miguelonnnn | what i want to do is put the iso in the usb, make an mbr at sector 0 and then set it bootable | 03:59 |
| Dr_Willis | in oneof those packges it seems Abdullah9 | 03:59 |
| poent | does ubuntu have a firewall included with the default install? | 03:59 |
| yinlong | poent,no. | 03:59 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: I think you want to do something different: | 03:59 |
| poent | yinlong, thanks | 03:59 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: that wont work. you need to set up syslinux to boot the thing.. after you copy all files from the iso to the flash drive. | 04:00 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: You want to copy the _contents_ of the ISO to the USB stick. | 04:00 |
| Abdullah9 | what packges | 04:00 |

| * Dr_Willis seconds what bankix says | 04:00 | |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: And then installing a bootloader, e.g. syslinux. | 04:00 |
| mdg | poyntz: ?? | 04:00 |
| Dr_Willis | and getting syslinux working right.. will be the harder part. | 04:00 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah that's what i want to do | 04:00 |
| miguelonnnn | i want to make my usb just like the cd | 04:00 |
| mejobloggs | i have an ubuntu server at home, does anyone know if it's possible to check the hdd space from a Windows pc? | 04:00 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: So, first you have to mount the ISO, then copy all the files form below the mount point to your freshly formatted stick. | 04:00 |
| miguelonnnn | but on my own, that is, without script programs help | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | whichis why the tool like unetbootin, and the tutorials at pendrivelinux.com are worth reading | 04:01 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: As last step, you'll want to install syslinux. | 04:01 |
| miguelonnnn | but i heard that copy won't work well | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: you will proberly be spending the next day+ trying to figure out how to do it. | 04:01 |
| Pawan | hi | 04:01 |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: Ack! | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: what 'that copy' ? | 04:01 |
| miguelonnnn | that dd is the way to go to make an exact copy of the cd | 04:01 |
| Pawan | !audacious | 04:01 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about audacious | 04:01 |
| Pawan | how to install audacious | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: theres making a copy of the IMAGE.. of the cd.. then theres making copy of the CONTENTS.. 2 simier yet differen tthings | 04:01 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: What do you want with an ISO9660 filesystem on your usb stick??? | 04:02 |
| catmando | seriously? | 04:02 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: you will have a uphill battle untill you understand that differance | 04:02 |
| miguelonnnn | i duno bankix xdDD | 04:02 |
| yinlong | Pawan,what's your problem? | 04:02 |
| catmando | <LOLLOL | 04:02 |
| miguelonnnn | then i'll format it to fat32 | 04:02 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: When you take a CD, put it down on a photo copier, will this make you a copy of that CD? | 04:02 |
| Pawan | i want to install audacious | 04:02 |
| miguelonnnn | and then cp? or xcopy or what? | 04:02 |
| catmando | sudo apt-get install audcious | 04:02 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: yes.. Normally the live-flash things are fat16 or fat32 | 04:02 |
| catmando | make sure spelling is right. | 04:02 |
| catmando | should be in the repository | 04:02 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: then you mount the iso and copy the CONTENTS to the flash | 04:02 |
| miguelonnnn | ok, then what to copy? xcopy, cp? what? | 04:03 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: then you get to learn about syslinux | 04:03 |

| poent | is there a utility to access the airport express configuration menu? | 04:03 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah bankix, that's why i'm asking which command to use | 04:03 |
| miguelonnnn | i want a command or at least an option to cp to make an exact copy | 04:04 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: cd /where/you/did/mounted/the/iso | 04:04 |
| miguelonnnn | i want every existing file on the cd to get copied to the usb | 04:04 |
| canthus13 | poent: Might check with a Mac channel... | 04:04 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: cp -a .disk * /where/your/usb/stick/is/mounted | 04:04 |
| mostafa_ | Does anybody know how should I install my VGA driver (ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650)? | 04:04 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah that's easy bankix | 04:04 |
| canthus13 | canthus13: Although the first thing I'd try is to browse to your default gateway. | 04:04 |
| Belding | heather | 04:04 |
| miguelonnnn | -a will make all? just like ls -a? | 04:04 |
| poent | canthus13, know any off hand? channels that is | 04:04 |
| mostafa_ | Does anybody know how should I install my VGA driver (ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650)? | 04:05 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Nope. -a has a completely different meaning here. See the manpage if you're relly interested. | 04:05 |
| catmando | I am getting a very aggrevating beeping noise how can I stop it | 04:05 |
| miguelonnnn | ok | 04:05 |
| canthus13 | poent: #mac | 04:05 |
| miguelonnnn | and what aobut .disk? | 04:05 |
| miguelonnnn | what does that mean? | 04:05 |
| poent | mostafa_, go to ATI's website | 04:05 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: .disk is that hidden directory. | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | catmando: rmmod and blacklist the pcspkr module (i think) is one way | 04:05 |
| poent | mostafa_, you should be able to find and download a linux driver from there | 04:05 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Files and directory starting with a dot are hidden. | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | !beep | 04:06 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about beep | 04:06 |
| miguelonnnn | f*ck!!!! on my mac there isn't the -a option, i f*king hate thisssssssss oh he*l!! | 04:06 |
| mostafa_ | poent: I check there but there is not my driver there | 04:06 |
| Dr_Willis | normal cp should work i think.... | 04:06 |
| mnaines | catmando: Is it a steady beep or a series of beeps? | 04:06 |
| poent | mostafa_, gimme a sec i'll look | 04:06 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Okay, "cp -r .disk * /whereever" should do it as well. | 04:06 |
| miguelonnnn | ok i hope it does | 04:06 |
| Dr_Willis | http://strabes.wordpress.com/2006/10/16/remove-the-system-beep-in-ubuntu/ | 04:07 |
| catmando | Well depends if I hold the delete key down on a empty form it will beep continuously until i release it mnaines | 04:07 |
| mnaines | Dr_Willis: On some machines, the beeping is a code, and the beeps indicate faults on boot | 04:07 |
| Dr_Willis | mnaines: thats not what hes talking about it seems... | 04:07 |
| bazhang | miguelonnnn, watch the language | 04:07 |
| mostafa_ | poent: thank you bro you r so generous | 04:07 |
| miguelonnnn | but what does .disk * /wherever mean? cause i would just put cp * /wherever why two input arguments? | 04:07 |
| catmando | No no Its no fault. | 04:07 |
| Dr_Willis | mnaines: thers the 'gnome alert beep' then the 'system beep' | 04:07 |
| catmando | its defaintly annoying however | 04:07 |
| mnaines | catmando: That's not a problem...Its like the "idiot lights" on the dashboard of a car | 04:07 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah, i did put wildcards so i don't use expicit words bazhang | 04:07 |
| poyntz | mdg: basically, instead of using the keys to navigate alpines functions, I could click instead - like you can do with Elinkgs | 04:07 |
| Dr_Willis | mnaines: the pcspkr handles one of the beep methods | 04:08 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: "cp .disk * /whereever" == "cp .disk /wherever" + "cp * /whereever" | 04:08 |
| catmando | mnaines, well how can i turn the idiot lights off | 04:08 |
| miguelonnnn | i'm sorry anyway, this system is driving me crazy | 04:08 |
| poent | mostafa_: try, instead of going to mobility radeon, downloading the normal radeon driver for the 3xxx series | 04:08 |
| bazhang | miguelonnnn, we know what they mean, dont do any of them thanks | 04:08 |
| mnaines | catmando: In some cases, you don't want to | 04:08 |
| poent | mostafa_:thats what i did | 04:08 |
| miguelonnnn | i'm dying to get ubuntu finally, | 04:08 |
| Dr_Willis | mnaines: see if --> sudo modprobe -r pcspkr stops the beeping | 04:08 |
| mdg | poyntz: didn't know that was possible ...hmmm | 04:08 |
| miguelonnnn | ok sorry | 04:08 |
| catmando | mnaines, IDK if you realize how annoying this is | 04:08 |
| catmando | I am glad you told me to use modprobe | 04:08 |
| === heHATEme is now known as vorian | ||

| JohnPyle | Problem don't know what to search for: Listening to songs, certain 'parts' of the song are missing, entire instruments for example. MP3 songs that I know are good. I have tried pulse, oss, etc. What should I look for? Thanks | 04:09 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: We'll help you with that...................... I mean, dying at last ;-) | 04:09 |
| miguelonnnn | but then why cp .disk and cp *? isn't cp * sufficient? | 04:09 |
| mnaines | catmando: That beeping reminds me to stop hitting the delete or backspace key | 04:09 |
| poyntz | mdg: I'm private messaging you | 04:09 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: No. | 04:09 |
| catmando | lol I dont want it | 04:09 |
| maco | catmando: system -> preferences -> sound | 04:09 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Because "*" will not catch hidden files or directories. | 04:09 |
| miguelonnnn | ahaha bankix thanks a lot, you don't know how desperating is this system, i'm mad haha | 04:09 |
| mostafa_ | poent: mobility is for notebook if I'm not mistaken and normal one is for desktops | 04:09 |
| maco | catmando: you should be able to turn off the audible beep and theres an option to replace it with a visual bell as well | 04:10 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont think thers any hidden files on the iso image normally.. | 04:10 |
| jmad980 | hi catmando | 04:10 |
| maco | mnaines: dude, just chill. he doesnt want it, thats his deal | 04:10 |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: On a Ubuntu CD, there is the .disk directory. | 04:10 |
| mostafa_ | poent: can I use them instead of each other? | 04:10 |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: Without, the ubiquity won't work. | 04:10 |
| catmando | hi jmad980 | 04:10 |
| poent | mostafa_, correct. some laptop makers like sony dont use mobility drivers. I mysely have a 3xxx series card in my laptop and i'm using the standard desktop driver | 04:10 |
| catmando | lolol | 04:10 |

| miguelonnnn | what do you mean nnull ? | 04:13 |
| miguelonnnn | what should i read there? | 04:13 |
| alanpan | what is the name of irc on Mac? | 04:13 |
| bdelin88 | I was using the cd mode of ubuntu and all of a sudden it restarted and now I cannot boot into the ubuntu boot menu from the cd or into the ubuntu cd os... what gives?? | 04:13 |
| * catmando agrees with Dr_Willis | 04:13 | |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: I only know about because I recently remastered ubuntu and forgot that directory.... took me hours till I found out why it wouldn't boot. | 04:13 |
| miguelonnnn | alanpan, use xchat | 04:13 |
| bdelin88 | I was just moving some files around | 04:13 |
| miguelonnnn | download fink | 04:13 |
| nnull | miguelonnnn, i made it so you don't need to read ;) | 04:13 |
| miguelonnnn | and apt-get xchat | 04:13 |
| alanpan | does mac support xchat? | 04:13 |
| miguelonnnn | anyway, go for ubuntu it's far better | 04:13 |
| nnull | miguelonnnn, just "man cp" | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: you do know theres a Ubuntu netbook remix 'usb flash' image. that Might work? :) then again it might not... | 04:13 |
| poent | Dr_Willis: better than hiding it with $sys$ :-P | 04:13 |
| miguelonnnn | hhaha thanks :) | 04:14 |
| bdelin88 | anyone know? i can't even get the cd running now | 04:14 |
| Muzo | I'm trying to get vnc running on a headless machine but having a heap of problems.. Is it possible to make ubuntu think it has a screen plugged in which will make the standard screen sharing program on ubuntu work? | 04:14 |
| bankix | btice: Check all the sound channels of your soundcard and set them to maximum, and unmute them. Then give it another try. | 04:14 |
| miguelonnnn | this computer is strong enough to bear with ubuntu | 04:14 |
| topo | gnome volume control applet shows its down to 44% percent but i have no sound any IDEAS?? | 04:14 |
| miguelonnnn | but i'll look for the netbook remix for my mothers netbook | 04:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Alli can say on about the ubuntu live-flash stuff.. it its using a WAY WAY WAY too complex setup of syslinux for my tastes.. I can understand what most other disrto/flash installs do.. but Ubuntu's is just layers and layers of syslinux configs.. :) | 04:14 |
| miguelonnnn | thanks | 04:15 |
| sparr | What is "HTTP Cache Cleaner" and how do I stop it from launching at random? | 04:15 |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: Hey, don't stop the fun by mentioning that... | 04:15 |

| bankix | Dr_Willis: I longed for seing him instaling syslinux with macos... | 04:15 |
| miguelonnnn | hehe | 04:15 |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: ;-) | 04:15 |
| Dr_Willis | bankix: :) I made my own Uber-flash the othe rday with TinyCore, Puppy, Slax, slitaz, and others.. but Putting Ubuntu on there.. was out of the question. | 04:15 |

| bankix | btice: right-click the volume icon in the upper right panel. | 04:16 |
| Dr_Willis | bankix: i still wonder why the syslinux guys couldent go with the same sort of config format as grub uses.. translating the 2 - is a hassle. | 04:16 |
| btice | bankis: "Sound Events" and "Music and Movies" are both set to Autodetect. | 04:16 |
| bankix | btice: Then choose settings from the menu. | 04:16 |
| Dr_Willis | mnaines: thats plenty big.. gettting it installed/working 'by hand' will be the BIG challange.. ive tried it and failed... | 04:16 |
| miguelonnnn | whish me luck please! ;:) | 04:17 |
| caseyd | how much should i space should i use for my swap partition | 04:17 |

| bankix | btice: In the window with all the sliders for line-in and so on, there is a settings button. | 04:18 |
| miguelonnnn | and such things, i don't want that, i want do it well on my own | 04:18 |
| alanpan | where is the friend list? | 04:18 |
| miguelonnnn | friends lists? what's that hehe | 04:18 |
| bankix | btice: This will open a selection for the sliders displayed. Select them all. | 04:18 |
| bankix | btice: Probably it's the "front" slider you#re looking for. | 04:19 |
| nnull | alanpan, press ALT + V | 04:19 |
| alanpan | lets say i just added you as a friend in my friend list, where can i find that list? | 04:19 |
| nnull | and select Userlist | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | alanpan: check your irc client docs/menus.. most irc clients dont have a 'friends' list | 04:19 |
| nnull | oh no idea about that heh. | 04:19 |
| bankix | btice: When you unmuted all channels and set them to maximum, your soundcard _should_ work. | 04:20 |

| phylogenesis | I have a server with Ubuntu Server 9 on it. I plugged my computer in to the server via a crossover ethernet cable, and used scp to copy files to it. I also tried to copy using sftp and nautilus. Either way, if I copy more than a few hundred megabytes, I randomly get disconnected, after which I receive the error: "No route to host" if I try to reconnect. | 04:26 |
| bankix | btice: Yes, that's the one. | 04:26 |
| btice | bankix: If I left-click, I get a volume slider. It is at max. | 04:27 |
| gabak | caseyd are u sure? i think i have been reading about it | 04:27 |
| bankix | btice: Below the sliders, you have on the left a help button, on the right a cloose button, and one in the bidle. | 04:27 |
| bankix | mittle | 04:27 |
| phylogenesis | Is there something that might disconnect me for copying too much data to the server? | 04:27 |
| alanpan | Question: can we have private chat in this server? | 04:27 |
| btice | I also _do_ get sound from, for example, YouTube videos. | 04:27 |
| alanpan | what are the restrictions? | 04:27 |
| gabak | caseyd and it is for outlook express for dbx only | 04:27 |
| bankix | btice: Below the volume slider, there is one singe button. Left-click on that button. | 04:27 |
| btice | bankix: I do not have those buttons. Perhaps you are on something newer than Hardy Heron? | 04:27 |
| bankix | btice: Will open the "Intel ICH6" window | 04:28 |
| DigitalKiwi | alanpan: yes, though some people don't like it | 04:28 |
| bankix | btice: Oh -- hardy? I didn't get that, sorry. | 04:28 |

| alanpan | yeah ture, this is not aim nor msn. | 04:29 |
| ramiro | I have two computers on the same network running ubuntu 9.04. I have set both of them up following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime to use ntp, but their times differ. | 04:29 |
| sarthorks | how to copy every file, including hidden files, symbolic links etc, from a folder? | 04:29 |
| btice | bankix: However now I'm unable to play anything, it seems. | 04:29 |
| phylogenesis | I also have to restart the server before I can connect again. I tried /etc/init.d/proftpd restart and /etc/init.d/ssh restart but I still couldn't reconnect until I restarted the server. | 04:29 |
| JohnPyle | Help I don't know where to look: music and sound playback are abnormal! For example, songs are missing entire instruments. Can anyone point me in the right direction? | 04:29 |
| ramiro | how do I force both to update? (I've selected the same ntp source for both) | 04:29 |
| alanpan | how to answer somebody back? | 04:30 |
| ramiro | sarthorks: doesn't cp -r do that? | 04:30 |
| bankix | btice: One common problem was, that the main volume slider would have to be "Front" and not PCM or "Main". | 04:30 |
| catmando | can you hide your mac address? | 04:30 |
| ryanrhee90 | hi all | 04:30 |
| bankix | btice: By raising all to max, and later switch the main slider to "Front", I solved this. | 04:30 |
| sarthorks | ramiro, i don't know. it will do it? | 04:30 |
| bankix | btice: But I don't remember how to do this in hardy. | 04:30 |
| btice | bankix: I see no place to set "Front" on any slider. | 04:31 |
| ryanrhee90 | does anyone have experience with setting up openvpn on 8.04LTS? | 04:31 |
| alanpan | so xchat can also be used on mac right? | 04:31 |
| ryanrhee90 | Fri Aug 28 22:18:49 2009 Note: Cannot open TUN/TAP dev /dev/net/tun: No such device (errno=19) | 04:31 |
| ryanrhee90 | is the error i keep getting | 04:31 |
| bankix | btice: Got that. Maybe you could install "aumix" if it's in the repository. It's a commandline frontend, maybe this will give you access to the other channels. | 04:31 |
| maco | alanpan: yes, its called xchat aqua | 04:31 |
| btice | bankix: Perhaps I just need to upgrade to 10.04... | 04:31 |
| ryanrhee90 | bankix: if you want IRC, adiumx 1.4 beta has IRC. | 04:32 |
| maco | btice: development for 10.04 hasnt opened yet | 04:32 |
| alanpan | are you using mac? | 04:32 |

| johjk | anyone here know how to install driver for intel GM4 series? | 04:32 |
| btice | bankix: Um, I meant 9.04. | 04:32 |
| ryanrhee90 | *IRC | 04:32 |
| nztal | btice, i use alsamixer, to enable certain settings, that would otherwise not be available to me | 04:32 |

| mogunus | Hello. Is there a good command-line or otherwise non-gnome-dependant frontend for cpu frequency scaling in ubuntu netbook remix? I would like to scale my CPU from a non-gnome window manager | 04:33 |

| johjk | mogunus: maybe cpufreq? | 04:33 |
| StupidWeasel_ | Humm I've been getting crashes recently that require a hardreset, possibly triggered by opening a new Nautilus window. How should I go about tracking down the issue. | 04:34 |
| btice | bankix: Thank you for your help. | 04:34 |
| maco | mogunus: you can use gnome apps without running gnome. and gnome isnt a window manager. | 04:34 |
| johjk | can anyone here tell me how i can install the latest intel GM4 series driver on 9.04 jaunty? | 04:34 |
| angie | StupidWeasel: run a debugger? | 04:34 |
| WhiteCrow | hi guys | 04:34 |
| StupidWeasel_ | angie: For the whole system? | 04:34 |
| angie | StupidWeasel: nautilus | 04:35 |
| nztal | StupidWeasel, that happened to me in jaunty, and was fixed by switching from ath5k to madwifi. it would force me to reset my machine after so long | 04:35 |
| angie | :/ | 04:35 |
| StupidWeasel_ | Humm, might be worth a try. Also how would I go about debugging Nautilus angie, do you know of a guide/tutorial? | 04:36 |
| StupidWeasel_ | On how to attach a debugger etc. | 04:37 |
| johjk | can anyone here tell me how i can install the latest intel GM4 series driver on 9.04 jaunty? | 04:37 |
| mogunus | maco: sorry, gnome desktop environment? (is that correct?). What I want to avoid is running the gnome panel. | 04:37 |
| angie | StupidWeasel: gdb nautilus | 04:37 |
| angie | i think theres a nautilus option for debugging | 04:37 |
| angie | but i dunno being as i dont run it | 04:37 |
| mogunus | I'm going to try the binary package "cpufrequtils," that looks promising. | 04:37 |
| maco | mogunus: ooooh youre referring to the little applets? | 04:37 |
| === jefinc_ is now known as jefinc | ||
| mogunus | maco: Yeah, the little applets are what I don't want to deal with, the gnome-panel is a terrible match for my window manager. | 04:38 |

| johjk | i was just wondering ubuntu auto install my video driver, but there some applications dealing with graphics doesn't seem to work with it correctly | 04:39 |
| mogunus | ah, cpufrequtils has exactly what I want! cli programs to manipulate it. | 04:39 |

| WhiteCrow | why wine can't update ???? i see this site http://www.winehq.org/download/deb but Problem is the key !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pls help me. | 04:40 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: perhaps you need to tell it the filesystem.. since you are using OS-X (right?) the options may not be the same as linux uses | 04:40 |
| johjk | maco: do you know how to update to the latest intel driver? | 04:40 |
| maco | WhiteCrow: calmly, and with sentences, please | 04:40 |
| miguelonnnn | do apt-get upgrade whitecrom | 04:40 |
| maco | johjk: nope | 04:40 |
| miguelonnnn | it will update all downloaded packages | 04:41 |
| johjk | ok | 04:41 |
| miguelonnnn | sorry update | 04:41 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 04:41 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 04:41 |
| miguelonnnn | but you'dd better run upgrade first, it will update apt-get before so it'll run better | 04:41 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: ???? | 04:41 |
| ubuntu | come on guys someone help me out here; what happened to my harddrives ? | 04:41 |
| ubuntu | I'm just getting ready to install ubuntu. I have 2 320 gb harddrives installed. However, one of them is reporting a size of 128gb ... where the heck is the rest? (currently have windows installed) | 04:41 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah Dr_Willis , but i duno the fs | 04:41 |
| Flannel | ubuntu: Please pastebin the output of `sudo fdisk -l` | 04:42 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: "apt-get update" will update the package list of availiable packages | 04:42 |
| === ballzee is now known as Sinister | ||
| WhiteCrow | miguelonnnn : i do it , but repository fail. | 04:42 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: "apt-get upgrade" will install newer versions of installed packages, if available. | 04:42 |
| miguelonnnn | hehe bankix , Dr_Willis i'm making this because i do not know the fs, i don't know how can i know if. If i knew i'd put mount -t fs but i don't know. | 04:42 |
| miguelonnnn | i asked before how can i know the format of a partition but didn't get response xP | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: fdisk -l, | 04:43 |
| ubuntu | Disk /dev/sda: 320.0 GB, 320072933376 bytes | 04:43 |
| ubuntu | 240 heads, 63 sectors/track, 41345 cylinders | 04:43 |
| ubuntu | Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 = 7741440 bytes | 04:43 |
| ubuntu | Disk identifier: 0x00000001 | 04:43 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah sorry bankix | 04:43 |
| nztal | ubuntu, look in gparted. there is likely another partition, or free space. sounds like a partitioning problem. you can switch between hard drives and look at what is/isn't taking up space | 04:43 |

| ubuntu | Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System | 04:43 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: What filesystem did you write onto that stick? | 04:43 |
| ubuntu | /dev/sda1 * 1 41346 312568832 7 HPFS/NTFS | 04:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmmm | 04:43 |
| miguelonnnn | i don't know bankix, that's why i need a command to know its filessystem | 04:43 |
| something_here | Does anyone know how to fix the following problem? If I want to create my own mount point, I go 'mkdir /mnt/new'. The problem is, if I go 'mount /mnt/new' I receive the message "mount: can't find /mnt/new in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab". | 04:43 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: 'fdisk -l' | 04:43 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: You have an usb stick, right? | 04:43 |
| miguelonnnn | i suppose it's fat32 or fat16, but i'll try fdisk thanks driwillis | 04:43 |
| miguelonnnn | Dr_Willis, | 04:43 |
| Dr_Willis | if you just formated it to fat32 then it may be vfat. | 04:44 |
| nztal | something_here, i believe mount /mnt/new is insufficient | 04:44 |
| === arvind_k is now known as arvind_khadri | ||
| Dr_Willis | but thats linux terms.. Apple uses BSD.. so it may not be the same | 04:44 |
| something_here | nztal: Oh? | 04:44 |
| miguelonnnn | lolllllllllllll? | 04:44 |
| miguelonnnn | WINDOS_FAT_16 partition? | 04:44 |
| miguelonnnn | i don't even have window slol | 04:44 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Did you _ever_ format that usb-stick? | 04:44 |
| miguelonnnn | no haha, why does it have a windows fat 16 partition? | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: so? if you foramted it to fat16 its using a windows filesystem | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: you seem to be missing the point. :) | 04:45 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah, but why windows fat 16? | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: becase you formated it to that? | 04:45 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: _HOW_ did you format that stick? Which command? | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | what filesystem did you expect? | 04:45 |
| miguelonnnn | i didn't, but why is it WINDOWS fat 16? | 04:45 |
| miguelonnnn | i've never formatted it | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: becasue there is no LINUX fat 16? | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | would it mnake you feel better if it said 'MacOS Fat16' ? | 04:46 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Why did you tell me you did format it then? | 04:46 |
| miguelonnnn | ok Dr_Willis hehe i thought fat16 is universal, not "windows" | 04:46 |
| ubuntu | gparted is useless | 04:46 |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: I bow before your patience... | 04:46 |
| miguelonnnn | i didn't, i said i was planning to format it to fat32 | 04:46 |
| miguelonnnn | with fdisk | 04:46 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: Then _please_ format it to fat32. | 04:46 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah | 04:46 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: fdisk is _NOOOOOO_ formatting tool. | 04:46 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: and your point is? | 04:47 |
| miguelonnnn | that's what i'm going to do just after i mount it | 04:47 |
| miguelonnnn | mount -t fat32 right? | 04:47 |
| miguelonnnn | sorry mount -t fat16 | 04:47 |
| ArkoldThos | xd | 04:47 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: mount will mount, not format it | 04:47 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: mount command on your Non-Linux OS may be different . check its man pages.. | 04:47 |
| miguelonnnn | isn't it bankix ? so what should i use to format? | 04:47 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: _after_ you did format, you can mount it. | 04:47 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: it may or may not worj with -t vfat | 04:47 |
| Dr_Willis | fdisk, format, mount... thats the order... :) | 04:48 |
| bankix | miguelonnnn: mkdosfs vor example. But I don't expect it under macos. | 04:48 |
| miguelonnnn | ok, sorry i'm costumed to windows where you format it after it's mounted hehe | 04:48 |
| * Dr_Willis thinks it may be time to point to #OSX | 04:48 | |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: err.. techically you dont under windows either. :) it unmounts it then formats it.. | 04:48 |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: dd for copying files, fdisk and mount for formatting... sounds like a tale ;-) | 04:48 |
| Dr_Willis | dd for copying 'filesystems' :) | 04:49 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 04:49 |
| Dr_Willis | dd can do it all! | 04:49 |
| * Dr_Willis bets miguelonnnn will still be working on this by next week | 04:49 | |
| bankix | Dr_Willis: Yes, and if dd fails, there is still dd_rescue, even better dd... | 04:49 |
| nztal | i'm afraid to use dd. i've seen too many people in here, lose data :) i've not ever touched it because of the horror stories | 04:49 |
| myron | does ubuntu create .spl files when spooling to a printer? | 04:49 |
| gartral | how does one make a "blank" iso? | 04:49 |
| miguelonnnn | ok i'll try willis, but i'm a little concerned about mac sites, they usually are mac fanatics | 04:49 |
| miguelonnnn | be right back! | 04:50 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | gartral: Uh, why? | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: the command line on OS-X is the bsd 'stuff' not really OS-X specific.. | 04:50 |
| K`Tetch_U | ty.us | 04:50 |
| adante | hi guys, how do i set the preferred media viewer in linux? | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: and BSD is not linux... so there are going to be differances that we are not aware of in here. | 04:50 |
| miguelonnnn | then, is there any #bsd channel? | 04:50 |
| bankix | gartral: Just create an empty directory, put in everything you like, then burn that directory to a CD. | 04:50 |
| ArkoldThos | adante, depend on what desktop | 04:50 |
| gartral | CoJaBo-Aztec: ease of archiving | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Try #bsd ? :) | 04:50 |
| miguelonnnn | ok heheeh | 04:50 |
| ArkoldThos | what are you using, Gnome or KDE? | 04:50 |
| miguelonnnn | thanks a lot Dr_Willis and all you :) | 04:51 |
| myron | does ubuntu create .spl files when spooling to a printer? | 04:51 |
| gartral | bankix: id'e rather have a way of making "template" isos | 04:51 |
| adante | ArkoldThos: gnome... i've tried system -> preferences -> preferred application -> multimedia -> custom set to vlc, but when i double click media files they still open in totem? | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | miguelonnnn: i would of just grabbed that UNR img file and tried it.. You proberly could of had it installed by now... | 04:51 |
| myron | or is that a windows proprietary file type... | 04:51 |
| ArkoldThos | adante, does Gnome includes stuff to specify the file extension? | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Does Linux on the new Apple Machines use grub? or some other boot loader? | 04:51 |
| bankix | gartral: Okay, what are you planning to do? | 04:52 |
| adante | ArkoldThos: nope | 04:52 |
| bankix | gartral: There is nothing such as a "blank iso". | 04:52 |
| nnull | is grub2 working yet? | 04:52 |
| miguelonnnn | hehe i'm back, nobody at bsd | 04:53 |
| miguelonnnn | well actually the channel exists, but everybody's away | 04:53 |
| bankix | gartral: Often, the better answer is to show a better approach than to answer that direct question. | 04:53 |
| miguelonnnn | and #osx asks for id | 04:53 |
| ArkoldThos | adante, no clue then :P i use kde | 04:53 |
| gartral | bankix: it would be nice if i could have a iso mounted with the archive mounter, that "burns itself" when i dismount it... | 04:54 |
| bankix | gartral: That's why I'm askin what you're planning to do. | 04:54 |
| miguelonnnn | great true bankix hehe | 04:54 |
| bankix | gartral: Ah, like under macos? | 04:54 |
| gartral | bankix: wouldn't know, i never use mac | 04:54 |
| bankix | gartral: Just say "new CD", drag everything there, and burn it when ejecting? | 04:54 |
| gartral | bankix: ya | 04:54 |
| ctmjr | adante: open the folder with the file right click the file then properties then open with and chose vlc or whatever player you want | 04:54 |
| adante | ctmjr: hm so i just do this for every file type? is there no way to set the global? | 04:55 |
| chez | how do i find out which program is acessing the internet? | 04:55 |
| bankix | gartral: Hmm, I fear that's actually not implemented that way. | 04:55 |
| robert__ | how do i get kopete to connect to yahoo messenger? | 04:56 |
| bankix | gartral: You yould open brasero, create a new CD project, drag everything to that window and press burn when you're finished. | 04:56 |
| bankix | gartral: Hmmm, wait a moment... | 04:56 |
| gartral | bankix: kinda defeats the point, seeing as i was hoping to use this to backup a headless server (eventually_ | 04:56 |
| ubuntu__ | hola | 04:56 |
| bankix | gartral: Nope, then that's no solution for you. | 04:57 |
| bankix | gartral: The way is to create an empty directory, copy (or link) everything there you want to backup, and then start burning | 04:57 |
| bankix | gartral: Why do you need this "burn on eject" feature? | 04:58 |
| ctmjr | adante: if it is an avi it will set it globally or whatever file type that it is. | 04:58 |
| gartral | bankix: primarily causer i backup twice a day due to frequency of power failure in my building lately | 04:59 |
| adante | ctmjr: ok, thanks | 04:59 |

| sarthork1 | how do i copy symbolic links? using "sudo cp -r from to" gives the error of "not able to create symbolic links". permission denied. | 05:00 |
| bankix | gartral: _maybe_ there is a way. But you'll have to script this all yourself. | 05:00 |
| ctmjr | adante: are you looking to set the player for all videos no matter what format? | 05:00 |
| adante | ctmjr: was hoping to yeah | 05:00 |
| bankix | gartral: AFAIK there is a signal, maybe from hal, dbus or even udev, when pressing the open button of the drive. Which normally unmounts the disk and ejects it. | 05:00 |
| graysilver | have you tried just sudoing the cp | 05:01 |
| wers | is there an automated way to install the iwlwifi for intel 4965 driver? :D | 05:01 |
| bankix | gartral: Instead of unmounting, you could start burning and eject the disk afterwards. | 05:01 |
| ctmjr | adante: ok hold on will find it, it gets kinda of tricky | 05:01 |
| Dreamglider | Discovery t- 31sec :) | 05:01 |
| bankix | gartral: But you'll have to find that signal first, catch it, and write the scripts for burning. | 05:01 |
| bankix | gartral: What about running the backup and burning the CD on certain times? Let's say, on 10am and 16pm? | 05:02 |

| MattCampbell | I have an ATI Radeon 9600 graphics card, and I chose the free-software-only installation option. Is the free-software driver for this card reasonably efficient? | 05:16 |

| techtronic | mankash: edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file | 05:18 |
| chez | ltl: thanks | 05:18 |
| techtronic | mankash: suggest using nano instead of vi | 05:18 |
| DigitalKiwi | vim > vi > nano | 05:18 |
| DigitalKiwi | this is undeniable. | 05:18 |
| techtronic | eg sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:18 |
| techtronic | sorry DigitalKiwi i dont understand what are you saying that nano is crap? | 05:19 |
| ctmjr | adante: sorry i had the link bookmarked but cannot find it there is a way to change it globally to change the default dvd player open system preferences removable drives and media and change that for the others the only thing i can say is do it manually on each file type or google it | 05:19 |
| DigitalKiwi | well i wouldn't say it's crap, but vim is superior in all aspects | 05:20 |
| adante | ctmjr: no worries thanks, sorry i hope you didn't spend too much time on it, appreciate your effort | 05:20 |
| techtronic | as a new comer to linux however vi is not very "user friendly" | 05:20 |
| techtronic | i havent tried vim so can not comment on that | 05:20 |
| DigitalKiwi | i'm a user and vim is more friendly to me than nano | 05:20 |
| Scunizi | techtronic: gedit, nano are alternatives.. nano for cli | 05:21 |
| graysilver | I like nano over vim | 05:21 |
| techtronic | very true | 05:21 |
| techtronic | i appear to have let the cat out on this one | 05:21 |
| Firefishe | Myself, I use gedit in X, so I guess I'm on the 'evil gui' side ;) hee | 05:21 |
| techtronic | i didnt mean to start a full on debate | 05:21 |
| Flannel | DigitalKiwi: This isn't the place for editor wars. As a general rule of thumb, nano is the best editor to recommend to people here who need to edit something in a terminal | 05:21 |
| kevdog | those that don't understand vim = hate vim | 05:22 |
| kevdog | What about xedit? | 05:22 |
| DigitalKiwi | oh i'll give you that nano is "easier" than vim when you know nothing about it, but it's worth learning, just saying | 05:22 |
| DigitalKiwi | not even that hard to learn | 05:22 |
| graysilver | I dont hate it but having grown up on note pad nano is easier for what i do. | 05:23 |
| DigitalKiwi | http://www.vi-improved.org/tutorial.php | 05:23 |
| mralexandro | if i wanted to easily create a dhtml menu in ubuntu. is there any software i could use. to create these visually without the coding knowledge? | 05:23 |
| techtronic | i totally agree its work learning vim and vi, but it takes time to learn | 05:23 |
| graysilver | I should get to know vim better though | 05:23 |
| DigitalKiwi | vimtutor command is alright, i like that guide better though | 05:23 |
| chez | gedit>vim | 05:23 |
| chez | gedit>emacs | 05:23 |
| Scunizi | mralexandro: yes.. it's kde based but will work in ubuntu.. I'll look hang on. | 05:23 |
| NFischer | Hi all, i try to set a custom LogOn Soundfile but it does not work although its an .wav file <1MB.. anyone knows about what the problem could be?! | 05:23 |
| chez | gedit> {lim (n->0) 1/ n} | 05:24 |

| FloodBot2 | chez: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:24 |
| techtronic | so can some one tell me if i can use wav files for startup and shutdown sounds | 05:24 |
| mralexandro | Scunizi, thanks:) | 05:24 |
| waynemm | try again, I have two ubuntu computers, i activate remote desktop on one of them, what program do i use or where do i type on the other computer to connect to the first computer? | 05:24 |
| techtronic | NFischer: im after the same thing | 05:24 |
| techtronic | NFischer: i cant get wav to work | 05:24 |
| Scunizi | mralexandro: kompozer is the substitute for nvu which is no longer maintained. | 05:25 |
| NFischer | techtronic, i read that the .wav file has to be in 16 Bit.. do you know how to convert it? | 05:25 |
| mralexandro | Scunizi, so i can make dhtml menus in kompozer? :) | 05:26 |
| Scunizi | NFischer: you could use audacity | 05:26 |
| Scunizi | mralexandro: what's the "d" in dhtml stand for? | 05:26 |
| techtronic | NFischer: sorry i dont i downloaded some star treck voice saying initiating startup / shut down procedure, just want it to work, know they have it working on knoppix | 05:26 |
| Firefishe | "Initiating Startup Sequence" | 05:27 |
| techtronic | Firefishe: thats the one | 05:27 |
| NFischer | Scunizi, do you know the commands, didnt find it anywhere | 05:27 |
| Scunizi | mralexandro: kompozer will do lots as an html, css etc editor. | 05:27 |
| NFischer | techtronic, mine is HAL9000 ;) | 05:27 |
| mralexandro | Scunizi, i am not sure excactly. all i know is that it is some sort of javascript menu creator. have a look at my page. www.home.no/armani and you will see the blue menu on top. i have a software for that in windows, but i a have for the last week converted all my needs to ubuntu. | 05:27 |
| Firefishe | techtronic: Did you siphon that sound file off of knoppix? | 05:27 |
| Scunizi | NFischer: sudo apt-get install audacity.. it's gui based.. not cli | 05:28 |
| techtronic | Firefishe: no i didnt i know they have it running in their thats all | 05:28 |
| techtronic | NFischer: not sure what HAL9000 is | 05:28 |
| Firefishe | techtronic: I wonder at what point in knoppix--with an eye to solving your own issue--the sound file gets called and executed. | 05:28 |
| Scunizi | mralexandro: in that case I'm not sure if it will work.. easy enough to install and check out though | 05:28 |
| miguelonnnn | hey boys i got another question | 05:29 |
| miguelonnnn | i've just formated to fat32 the usb | 05:29 |

| MindVirus1 | Hello. How do I change the default action Ubuntu takes when I plug in my iPod? | 05:30 |
| NFischer | Firefishe, uhm.. i know... | 05:30 |
| lord_ | is via's vt1708a chipset fully supported or am i crazy | 05:30 |

| Firefishe | NFischer: k, no probs | 05:30 |
| miguelonnnn | but now i'm going to copy the mounted iso and i need to make a cp. The problem is if i make cp -r .* , ./ and ../ are upper folders, so i will copy folders out from the cd | 05:30 |
| Madpilot | DigitalKiwi, others - offtopic chat to #ubuntu-offtopic, pls. Try to keep #ubuntu for tech support only. | 05:30 |
| NFischer | Firefishe, techtronic wasnt sure ;) | 05:31 |
| MindVirus1 | Anyone know? | 05:31 |
| lord_ | MindVirus1: does a box pop up when you plug it in? | 05:31 |
| MindVirus1 | lord_: no; I just see a nautilus window showing the iPod directory. | 05:32 |
| techtronic | So does anyone know what sound formats are supported at startup/shutdown etc> | 05:32 |
| musikgoat | miguelonnnn: .* != ../ | 05:33 |
| MindVirus1 | Any suggestions? | 05:33 |
| lord_ | MindVirus1: in nautilus preferences you may be able to change default behavior when plugging in a media player | 05:36 |

| techtronic | Firefishe: i dont understand your last comment, sorry | 05:39 |
| kevdog | kevdog: No -- known history of problems with gstreamer/pidgeon vv with pulseaudio -- it was recommended I remove the package | 05:39 |
| test34 | pulse audio... not very stable | 05:40 |
| kevdog | kevdog: IDEA for Karmic -- get rid of pulse audio | 05:40 |
| lord_ | has anyone had any problems with sound from headphones | 05:40 |
| lord_ | everything google turns up about it is either irrelevant or outdated | 05:40 |
| musikgoat | kevdog: the ubuntu-desktop metapackage includes your gnome desktop, do you want to remove that? | 05:41 |
| Firefishe | techtronic: forget it, I'm getting confused tonight. | 05:41 |
| kevdog | musikgoat: I dont think removal of the meta package will actually remove the individual packages listed in the meta package | 05:41 |
| techtronic | Firefishe: cool, no worries, im getting the same way its 5.41am and im still at work from 7pm last night | 05:42 |
| miguelonnnn | hey please, how can avoid that cp -r .* goes up and copies .. (the parent directory)and recursively again its parent directory and so on? | 05:42 |

| mralexandro | how can i add sources to streamtuner | 05:49 |
| TeeSix | Firefishe, how do i boot into terminal?(im noob :D) | 05:49 |
| Scunizi | anielsen: you should probably update .. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:49 |
| Firefishe | TeeSix: Are you having trouble with something like this: http://tinyurl.com/forteesix | 05:51 |
| techtronic | any1 know a good gui irc i can use over ssh | 05:52 |
| techtronic | preferably using SOCKS | 05:52 |
| TeeSix | yeah something like that | 05:52 |
| mralexandro | mayday mayday i have two firefox. one named shiretoko and one named mozilla firefox | 05:52 |
| TeeSix | except i get no errors | 05:52 |
| TeeSix | i just get busy box message | 05:52 |
| TeeSix | and initramfs prompt | 05:52 |
| Scunizi | techtronic: does it have to be gui? cli irssi and screen.. run screen first then irssi on top so you don't have to have multiple ssh sessions into a box. | 05:52 |
| anielsen | Scunizi: thanks man - think youre right | 05:53 |
| techtronic | Scunizi: whats screen | 05:53 |
| Firefishe | !screen | Scunizi | 05:54 |

| Dr_Willis | mralexandro: run what one you want. :) 3.0 or 3.5 | 05:55 |
| mralexandro | Dr_Willis, oh ok:) | 05:55 |

| Scunizi | techtronic: more options, faster.. with screen you can leave it running and log off the machine and come back later.. | 05:55 |
| techtronic | Dr_Willis: why, whats the advantage | 05:55 |
| Dr_Willis | techtronic: im using 'weechat' right now. | 05:55 |
| Firefishe | techtronic: Simple, fast, less memory. Myself, I'm using the latest recently compiled (on my system) of kvirc4 ;), so I'm not one to talk, I guess. | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | techtronic: I find it faster/easier and i can do it over ssh easier. | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | techtronic: some reason i need a big gui to hang in 2 channels? :) | 05:56 |

| haytham-med | hi all, in mounting lvm , i used this http://www.linux-sxs.org/storage/fedora2ubuntu.html | 05:56 |

| haytham-med | module not found, any solution? | 05:57 |
| techtronic | thanks all, im new to linux, been using it for about a week now, loving it | 05:57 |
| Firefishe | Scunizi: You can do that with irssi? Split windows in the same screen? | 05:57 |
| Scunizi | Firefishe: yep | 05:57 |
| Firefishe | Scunizi: How do you do it/ | 05:58 |
| Firefishe | ? | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Firefishe: yes.. and weechat can also. | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | irssi is very much a 'read the docs' irc client. :) | 05:58 |
| Firefishe | Dr_Willis: I should also try weechat. | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | using the latest weechat from source here.. it has a few nice features | 05:58 |
| Scunizi | Firefishe: open two channels.. say on window 2 & 3.. then go to window 2 and type /window show 3 | 05:58 |
| mralexandro | anyone know if possible to remove gray area in open office. it would be much better looking having only the paper visiblie and not a area around it? | 05:59 |
| techtronic | Dr_Willis: so do you get screen to run ssh or irssi | 05:59 |
| mralexandro | open office word that is | 05:59 |
| Dr_Willis | yes... | 05:59 |
| techtronic | Dr_Willis: sorry, as above - noob | 05:59 |

| emma | Say, I am running Ubuntu Intrepid here, isn't network manager supposed to show the ESSID of wireless connections, especially if you are connected to one? | 05:59 |
| five | Does anyone know of a good howto? | 05:59 |
| emma | the networkmanager aplet doesn't seem to do anything. It's just entirely greyed out | 05:59 |
| techtronic | Five: look at bastille | 06:00 |
| five | techtronic: Thanks! | 06:00 |
| techtronic | run as little as possible, using damn good passwords eg greater than 16 digits with uppercase lowercase numbers and characters | 06:00 |
| Firefishe | Scunizi: I'll try it next time I'm in irssi | 06:01 |
| techtronic | Five: and look at putting in IDS | 06:01 |
| five | IDS? | 06:01 |
| kevdog | Can you forward an X session through ssh if you are using screen on the remote computer? | 06:02 |
| techtronic | five: Intrusion detection system - eg snort | 06:02 |
| five | Ah. | 06:02 |
| five | Thanks :-) | 06:02 |
| kevdog | five: There is also an extension fwsnort: That helps with the snort analysis | 06:02 |
| five | kevdog: thanks, I'll take a look. | 06:03 |
| five | I had some rootkit checkers in there, but they were kind of lame. | 06:03 |
| unop | kevdog, you mean, you're connected to a remote screen session via SSH and want to forward X back to your client? | 06:03 |

| Dan48p | hi, what is this thing that i happened upon? | 06:06 |
| diz_Child | how to upload more? I have a high speed bandwidth | 06:07 |
| Dan48p | well, i'm kind of trying to figure out which version to use ubuntu or kubuntu | 06:07 |
| techtronic | Dr_Willis: how would i go about using screen over ssh | 06:07 |
| izinucs | Dan48p: you can use both on the same machine.. load ubuntu then there's a way to load kubuntu and switch between them on the login screen | 06:07 |
| Dan48p | i have 3 different ones installed now | 06:08 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: What are they? | 06:08 |
| Dan48p | i have been using ubuntu on this computer for about 6 months now, but in school we use the kde | 06:08 |
| Dr_Willis | techtronic: ssh in.. run screen... not too complex. :) | 06:08 |
| Dan48p | ubuntu, kubuntu & xubuntu | 06:08 |
| izinucs | Dan48p: then sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and use sessions on the login screen to switch | 06:09 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: It's really all personal preference. Myself, I even like to use FluxBox and fvwm when I'm feeling really minmalistic | 06:09 |
| techtronic | so scree is on the host machine?n | 06:09 |
| izinucs | techtronic: yes | 06:09 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: If you want to be able to control practically every element of your gui, install enlightenment | 06:09 |
| Dan48p | what does that do? | 06:09 |
| Dr_Willis | you could run screen locally... ssh to remote.. run screen there.. have scren in screen.. Ewww :) | 06:09 |
| leaf-sheep | jot down "sudo aptitude install gnome-desktop kubuntu-desktop xubuntu-desktop" to his to-do list | 06:10 |
| Firefishe | !enlightenment | Dan48p | 06:10 |
| ubottu | Dan48p: Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work. E17 is the current development version. | 06:10 |
| Dr_Willis | leaf-sheep: i had issues with mixxing all the desktops like that recently. :( | 06:10 |
| izinucs | Dr_Willis: menu's can be a mess | 06:10 |
| emma | does anyone have any idea why the networkmanager applet in Ubuntu Intrepid would show no wireless connections at all, even though im obviously online? | 06:10 |
| leaf-sheep | Dr_Willis: That was intended to be an action but I am being forgetful today. :( | 06:10 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: The current version is also known as e16, although the 'enlightenment' package does install it. (corrections?) | 06:10 |
| Dr_Willis | izinucs: the default file manager keep getting confused.. was the BIG issue | 06:10 |
| emma | the networkmanager applet is just all greyed out | 06:10 |

| Dan48p | the main thing in ubuntu that i use a lot that i haven't figured out is the multi compiz with the multi-desktops with icons in the boxes | 06:11 |
| Dan48p | it seems as though i have 4 boxes with nothing in them and have to guess or remember whats there | 06:11 |
| sam_sam | hello can someone tell me how to retrieve data from a formatted HDD ?? | 06:11 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_sam: you accidently formated a data drive? | 06:12 |
| Dan48p | am i typing in the main thing or since your text is red should i be typing in a different place? | 06:12 |
| SirStan | sam_sam: mount it; copy data from it as needed. | 06:12 |
| bhanumnit1 | :) | 06:12 |
| leaf-sheep | techtronic: Yes -- Run screen on the hostmachine. You'll have to learn how to use shortcut keys. | 06:12 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_sam: or is there some other issue? | 06:12 |
| emma | Dan48p, if you look down at the lower panel you will see a place where it shows all your workspaces and an idea of what windows are open in them. You can switch workspaces there. It may be by the trash can. | 06:12 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: My text isn't red...what irc client are you using? | 06:12 |
| Dan48p | xchat | 06:12 |
| sam_sam | i had /,/home etc on my HDD and while installing new version of os | 06:12 |
| * Dr_Willis dont see red | 06:13 | |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: That's specific to that client...I'm using kvirc4...somewhat different. | 06:13 |
| emma | Firefishe, your text is becoming red for him when you highlight him by saying his nick | 06:13 |
| leaf-sheep | Dan48p: The text is red for you because that message is highlighted for you. | 06:13 |
| Dan48p | huh? | 06:13 |
| Dan48p | oh | 06:13 |
| Firefishe | emma...thanks, that explains it | 06:13 |
| sam_sam | and these overwrote the previous folders which had my data | 06:13 |
| vG|qum^ | gm all | 06:13 |
| Dan48p | what do you mean specific to client? | 06:13 |
| Firefishe | gm vG|qum^ | 06:13 |
| zvacet | sam_sam : do you have separate home partition | 06:14 |
| emma | would anyone happen to know why network manager applet in Ubuntu Intrepid is all greyed out for me? It shows no wireless connections at all. But clearly I am online | 06:14 |
| sam_sam | i had it | 06:14 |
| leaf-sheep | Dan48p: Also, use nickname to specify who you're talking to.. Try typing "leaf" then press TAB key | 06:14 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: 'Client' means, essentially, 'program.' As emma just pointed out, whenever I prefix my text line with your nickname, xchat recognizes it, and highlights my responses in read so you can easily see them. | 06:14 |
| sam_sam | sorry guys i replyed late.. plz help me | 06:14 |
| Dan48p | leaf-sheep, like this? | 06:14 |
| Firefishe | read=red | 06:14 |
| leaf-sheep | Dan48p: Yup. | 06:14 |
| zvacet | sam_sam : during installation you probably check it for formating | 06:14 |
| Dan48p | leaf-sheep, that shows up a different color to you | 06:14 |
| emma | Dan48p, we call the program that you use to get on irc a 'chat client'. There are many IRC chat clients. One of them is Xchat, which is the one you are using. Each do the same basic stuff but they each have unique features also. | 06:14 |
| leaf-sheep | Dan48p: Right. | 06:15 |
| Dan48p | ahh | 06:15 |
| sam_sam | its already done .. i want the data back ,is there any way :( ? | 06:15 |
| Dan48p | it's been about 10 years since i've been in a chat room... seems a lot more useful this time around | 06:15 |
| vG|qum^ | emm | 06:15 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: We've come a long way, baby! *blows smoke* ;) hee | 06:16 |
| vG|qum^ | ubuntu on lenovo S10E is a good thing, better than xp 4 sure. xD | 06:16 |
| zvacet | sam_sam : somebody else will halp you and you can look at the forums | 06:16 |
| Dreamglider | can i install ubuntu in an extended partition ? | 06:16 |
| izinucs | Dan48p: at least this one is.. there are others too.. as well as the one's that are populated by "other" ventures. | 06:16 |
| emma | Dan48p, nahh... It just depends on what chat room (on IRC they are called channels, not chat rooms) you are in. This is a sort of 'serious' channel since it is strictly for support. | 06:16 |
| zvacet | Dreamglider : yes | 06:16 |
| Dan48p | oh | 06:16 |
| Dan48p | i just clicked on stuff until i ended up here | 06:16 |
| Firefishe | Dan48p: ubuntu-offtopic is for more informal chat | 06:16 |
| Dan48p | i see | 06:16 |
| NFischer | how do i convert a .wav file into 8-Bit w/ soX? | 06:17 |
| Dreamglider | zvacet, alright, thanks. i'm gonna try out 9.04 | 06:17 |
| NFischer | cant find the command anywhere | 06:17 |
| Dr_Willis | click on stuff till it explodes.. :) | 06:17 |
| zvacet | Dreamglider : good luck | 06:17 |
| emma | Dan48p, actually right now you are on the Freenode IRC network. Ubuntu is just one of thousands of open source projects that use Freenode to host their family of IRC channels. | 06:17 |
| Firefishe | Dr_Willis: Heh...sometimes, sometimes...<click> *kaboom!* | 06:17 |
| Dreamglider | zvacet, thanks, ill need it... | 06:17 |
| Dr_Willis | sox --bits BITS (from the sox docs) | 06:18 |
| emma | Dan48p, there are thousands of other worthy channels on this IRC network that have nothing to do with Ubuntu. And some excellent Ubuntu related channels that are unoficial. | 06:18 |
| Dr_Willis | -1/-2/-3/-4/-8 Encoded sample size in bytes | 06:18 |
| Dan48p | so are the different versions of linux pretty much the same functionally? i tried kubuntu mainly because we have the kde on the machines at school... i like the look a little better than ubuntu but i can't find stuff as quick now | 06:18 |
| zvacet | Dreamglider : nothing to be afraid of in it simple procedure | 06:18 |
| Dan48p | i guess what i'm asking is if i use ubuntu or kubuntu will everything transfer between them correctly | 06:18 |
| Dan48p | i'm mainly using kate to program in c, then your standard internet and open office stuff | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: kubuntu is ubuntu + KDE.. ubuntu = GNOME | 06:19 |
| Dreamglider | zvacet, true true, but since 7.10 i have had a very hard time getting x to work after install is done. | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: you can install whateer apps you like on both.,, | 06:19 |
| zvacet | Dreamglider : didn´t know that | 06:19 |
| emma | Dan48p, ubuntu and kubuntu are very nearly the same exact thing 'under the hood'. But they are different in that they use different desktop enviroments with a different suite of applications. | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: the 2 are just different desktops. the underlaying stuff is still the same. | 06:19 |
| Dan48p | ok | 06:19 |
| Dan48p | so it's really all preference then? is there anyway to get a theme or something for ubuntu that makes everything some other color than brown? | 06:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: gnome is themable --- check your users settings | 06:20 |
| leaf-sheep | Dan48p: You only should worry about your home directory (~) and nothing else. That's where all your personal files and configuration usually are stored on. | 06:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: you want a Hot Pink theme or somthing? :) | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | !changethemes | 06:21 |
| ubottu | To change gnome themes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy. Kubuntu themes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeKubuntu. Xubuntu users should /msg ubottu xfce-themes | 06:21 |
| Dan48p | that would work... maybe blue | 06:21 |
| Hoodman | Im in need of some help installing cups-pdf to use as a pdf print server, its a short term use, i need it to use a book that i purchaced....im new to ubuntu, but have it installed with the network working, but when i print a test page it tells me the service is idle | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: explore your system/settings menus :) | 06:22 |
| * leaf-sheep yawns | 06:22 | |
| Dan48p | oh yea i forgot a real important question... i have a laptop in the mail that doesn't have a cd drive but i need to get it to dual boot both windows and linux are there any good tutorials you guys have around? | 06:22 |
| leaf-sheep | !dualboot | Dan48p | 06:23 |
| ubottu | Dan48p: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 06:23 |
| maco | Dan48p: usb-creator? | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: you can set up ubuntu on a bootable flash drive for netbooks :) it works quite well | 06:23 |
| zvacet | Dan48p:system>preferences>appearance | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: then use the usb-flash to install ifyou want. | 06:23 |
| Dan48p | does that work for normal laptops too? | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: of course. | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | or desktops with no hard drive... :) or with hard drives... | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | or your Pent 4 Toaster Oven.. | 06:24 |
| emma | Dr_Willis, I think that will be a difficult project for someone who's brand new to linux. | 06:24 |
| leaf-sheep | Dan48p: Assuming Windows are already installed when it arrive in the mail, you could resize the partition to make room for Ubuntu and install away. | 06:24 |
| Firefishe | toaster oven? my desktop is a p4..but toaster oven? ;) hee | 06:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: or test out Uubntu along side windows with virtualbox. | 06:24 |
| emma | Another tall order | 06:24 |
| Firefishe | Dr_Willis: That's usually a safe way to do it. | 06:24 |
| Dan48p | i plan on using the ubuntu more often than windows on this computer... do you do 3 partitions or just 2? | 06:25 |
| Dan48p | like one for each os then one for data | 06:25 |
| krishnaprasad_ | hi all i want to install firefox latest version in ubuntu | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Firefishe: http://www.boingboing.net/2004/06/28/toaster-oven-casemod.html | 06:25 |
| krishnaprasad_ | please help | 06:25 |
| rww | !ff35 | krishnaprasad_ | 06:25 |
| ubottu | krishnaprasad_: Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko in your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: i normally have (windows)(linux)(home)(swap) | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Man FF3.5 is still a FAQ :) heh | 06:25 |
| emma | Dan48p, the easiest way is to let the Ubuntu installer take care of the partitions. However, some people do like to create the partitions manually so that you can have a separate /home partition. That makes future re-installs potentially smoother. | 06:25 |
| Firefishe | Dr_Willis: I just downloaded 3.5 from the site and store it in my home directory...easier to mess with that way. | 06:26 |
| LoCoBoi187 | hey | 06:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Firefishe: i find it easiest to just leave 3.5 alone... :) | 06:27 |
| drygrain | :D | 06:27 |
| drygrain | hi everyone | 06:27 |
| LoCoBoi187 | whats the best partition type for linux | 06:27 |
| Dan48p | can anyone see what i'm typing it quit showing up on my screen | 06:27 |
| Dan48p | oh now it works | 06:27 |
| LoCoBoi187 | ext4? ext2? fat32? fat16? jfs? etc... | 06:27 |
| Hoodman | Im in need of some help installing cups-pdf to use as a pdf print server, its a short term use, i need it to use a book that i purchaced....im new to ubuntu, but have it installed with the network working, but when i print a test page it tells me the service is idle | 06:27 |
| rww | LoCoBoi187: ext3 would probably be a good choice | 06:27 |
| Dan48p | is the /home partition only for linux? | 06:27 |
| krishnaprasad_ | i would like to use ubuntu in place of my windows OS for home purpose? So do i need install a antivirus to be installed? | 06:27 |
| emma | Dan48p, yeah | 06:28 |
| rww | !virus | krishnaprasad_ | 06:28 |
| ubottu | krishnaprasad_: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 06:28 |
| LoCoBoi187 | rww can i PM you? | 06:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Dan48p: yes. | 06:28 |
| rww | LoCoBoi187: no | 06:28 |
| LoCoBoi187 | ok | 06:28 |
| Dan48p | what size should all of these partitions be? | 06:28 |
| LoCoBoi187 | but isnt ext4 better since its newer? | 06:28 |
| Firefishe | Dr_Willis: That, too. | 06:28 |
| Firefishe | ;) | 06:28 |
| mralexandro | i am creating a flightplan for my schoolwork. i have to calculate fuel remaing in HH:MM not in etc 9.46 min, is there a easy formula for converting it into that, sorry for my bad math:) | 06:28 |
| Dr_Willis | LoCoBoi187: use ext4 if you want. | 06:28 |
| drygrain | i just got a new acer netbook with intel atom 1gb ram and a 160gb hdd and installed Ubuntu 9.04 on it, with no windows partition | 06:28 |
| rww | mralexandro: try #ubuntu-offtopic | 06:28 |
| LoCoBoi187 | i mean whats the huge difference here | 06:28 |
| drygrain | im doing the peanut butter jelly dance | 06:28 |
| drygrain | :D | 06:28 |
| rww | LoCoBoi187: possibly, but it's not default in Jaunty because some felt it wasn't ready. Personally, I use it and it works fine. | 06:29 |
| Dr_Willis | LoCoBoi187: ext4 is faster | 06:29 |
| robert__ | i got webcam problems can someone help me? | 06:29 |
| LoCoBoi187 | alright | 06:29 |
| mralexandro | rww, isnt there perhaps a more suitable room? any sugestion:p | 06:29 |
| LoCoBoi187 | and when i format | 06:29 |
| emma | the /home partition is where most of the personal settings and all of your data ends up. So if you have a separate /home partition you can re-install but not format /home, and you have all your 'stuff' after the new installation. | 06:29 |
| LoCoBoi187 | do i leave Mount point: blank? | 06:29 |
| LoCoBoi187 | cuase u can put /, /boot, etc | 06:29 |
| bucky | LoCoBoi187: isn't necessarily better because the utilities for it arent' as mature and grub2 might have an issue with it when you upgrade to karmic | 06:29 |
| LoCoBoi187 | im dual boting with 7 | 06:29 |
| Dan48p | emma, oh ok | 06:29 |
| robert__ | my webcam seems to work for gyachi and kopete but none of my friends can connect to a sent/request view | 06:29 |
| robert__ | or they say it says webcam not available | 06:30 |
| Firefishe | mralexandro: I'm a flight student (inactive, but still am working on my Private): Perhaps I can assist?: | 06:30 |
| robert__ | enen though the light is on and i see it on myself | 06:30 |
| christa40 | Voer tekst hier in...morgen | 06:30 |
| LoCoBoi187 | what do i put on Mount point: ? | 06:30 |
| emma | Dan48p, it's kind of like the user\documents and settings folder on windows (I think) | 06:30 |
| christa40 | hi all | 06:30 |
| Dan48p | emma, so that should be the largest partition? | 06:30 |
| robert__ | enen though the light is on and i see it on myself | 06:30 |
| mralexandro | Firefishe, yeah sure, but this has nothing to do with the aviation itself:) | 06:30 |
| emma | Dan48p, yes. | 06:30 |
| robert__ | *even | 06:30 |
| LoCoBoi187 | ??? | 06:31 |
| robert__ | are these just bugs that will be fixed in karmic or what? | 06:31 |
| Dan48p | emma, what is the swap partition then? would 10gb each for windows and linux be about the right size? | 06:31 |
| marco | I have a question... I have problems with my sound, how can I fix it??? | 06:31 |
| zvacet | LoCoBoi187 : for root / for home /home | 06:31 |
| emma | Dan48p, typically you have a partition for windows and then you give your root partition like 12 GB or so, and then make maybe 2 GB for /swap and the rest for /home | 06:31 |
| LoCoBoi187 | zvacet: can i leave it blank like it orgiganlly is? | 06:31 |
| Seguer | anyone available to help with sound and ALSA? http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=6373084b29a6908e9b608b3038a8ecb778301e20 | 06:32 |
| LoCoBoi187 | im very new to this | 06:32 |
| emma | Dan48p, how much you give to linux and how much you give to windows depends on your preference and how big your hard drive is. | 06:32 |
| debio264 | is there an Ubuntu-based distribution made specifically to replace Windows Server/Active Directory deployments, or should I just install Ubuntu Server and set up OpenLDAP and Keberos manually? | 06:32 |
| marco | any help??? | 06:32 |
| Dan48p | emma, can you not access data like word docs from both? | 06:32 |
| debio264 | and/or is there a simpler way to set up clients in such a setup? | 06:32 |
| christa40 | a little confusing this new system | 06:32 |
| robert__ | can someone help me with my webcam? | 06:32 |
| bucky | LoCoBoi187, you need at least the top level directory called / | 06:32 |
| zvacet | LoCoBoi187 : you must create partitions so you have to tell witch ones and sizes | 06:32 |
| LoCoBoi187 | alright got it bucky | 06:33 |
| emma | Dan48p, these days you can pretty well access any of your windows files while you are in linux. But you may not be able to access all your linux files while in windows. | 06:33 |
| barryt | marco have you checked /system /preferences/sound | 06:33 |
| marco | yes | 06:33 |
| barryt | marco did you get any sound | 06:34 |
| Dan48p | emma, ok thanks for the help... any reading material on this sort of thing around here? | 06:34 |

| Ben64 | sam_sam: depends on format method | 06:43 |

| MFen | i have this problem with my keyboard .. i use mousekeys to enable one of my keyboard keys as middle click. problem is the stupid setting gets turned turned off when i plug in and then unplug an external keyboard. *so* i figured out how to fix this with gconftool-2, which is great | 07:13 |
| renyef | vG|qum^: did u get it working | 07:13 |
| MFen | then, because this always happens before i suspend my computer for the night, i figured out that i can put a script into /etc/pm/sleep.d, and that script runs whenever i suspend or resume. great so far! | 07:13 |
| MFen | so, here's the bitch of it: those scripts run as root. i need gconftool-2 to run in the context of my gnome session. anyone know how to do that? | 07:14 |
| DigitalKiwi | su -c ? | 07:15 |
| MFen | DigitalKiwi: to me? | 07:15 |
| DigitalKiwi | yes | 07:15 |
| DigitalKiwi | can run it as your user instead of root | 07:15 |
| MFen | DigitalKiwi: i can try that but i kinda think that won't work either. since that would run as me, but not in my gnome session | 07:15 |
| unop | MFen, i guess what you will need to do is run a daemon as the user in your gnome session and use IPC to communicate with it to run your intended command. | 07:16 |
| unop | MFen, the folk in #bash should get you started - | 07:16 |
| MFen | unop: that makes sense, and i suppose i could write one myself, but ugh. surely there's something already available? | 07:16 |
| DigitalKiwi | what is gconftool? | 07:17 |
| unop | MFen, I'm not aware of such a thing (maybe it's my limited knowledge) -- but no, it's not very complex at all -- all you need really is a couple of named pipes, that's it really. | 07:17 |

| aj_444 | I have a friend who's wanting to try out ubuntu. She doesn't have a dvd burner or a flash drive. She does, however, have 4gb sd card and an sd card reader. Could she put ubuntu on that, run it as a live image, and install if she wanted? | 07:31 |
| aj_444 | LucidGuy: Every six months. Karmic Koala comes out oct. 29th.. i think. | 07:31 |
| cuddlefish | Alright: Asus K8N after a BIOS update, is suddenly getting Black Screens of Death after starting X11. Both on known-good installs and on Karmic. | 07:32 |
| LucidGuy | aj_444, but thats 9.10. Don't they put out updated kernel version earlier .. for like Jaunty? | 07:32 |
| drygrain | aj_444, , no USB? | 07:32 |
| ubuntu | yes, she can install to 4gb | 07:33 |
| drygrain | then yes | 07:33 |
| drygrain | i just did the same this morning | 07:33 |
| kdnewton | LucidGuy, indeed. He must have mistaken "kernel" for "next OS version number" | 07:33 |
| aj_444 | LucidGuy: you mean like running the update manager? | 07:33 |
| drygrain | ah i forget what app i used to make the usb stick bootable from the .iso file | 07:33 |
| aj_444 | drygrain: unetbootin works. would that work with an sd? | 07:34 |
| kdnewton | Seems that there is a kernel update once every month or so | 07:34 |
| cuddlefish | Asus K8N after bios update getting black screens after starting X11 | 07:34 |
| drygrain | i think so | 07:34 |
| LucidGuy | aj_444, yahh I think i have already got 2 kernel updates since I installed Jaunty. | 07:34 |

| LucidGuy | I find it a less stable then Intrepid which is sad . .hopefully and updated kernel will save me. Or maybe I should never have done an upgrade.. should have blown away and installed fresh. | 07:35 |
| cuddlefish | Please, somebody help me. | 07:35 |
| LucidGuy | aj_444, I apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade all the time ... dying for the next kernel update | 07:35 |

| Parsley | aj_444: I extracted the LiveCD contents as well as SuperGrub to one partition via Unetbootin | 07:53 |
| LucidGuy | Did some research the other day and found it odd nobody has tried to create a Mac OSX emulator, like for example WINE for windows. | 07:53 |
| Parsley | aj_444: and it boots | 07:53 |
| vG|qum^ | emm | 07:53 |
| vG|qum^ | didn't get it m8 | 07:53 |
| aj_444 | Parsley: So you installed it? | 07:53 |
| renyef | Parsley: run the install and pick your install location | 07:53 |
| LucidGuy | I soooooo wish I could get adobe products on my linux system working properly.. this is the only main reason why I dual boot. What does everyone else do? | 07:53 |
| Parsley | renyef: i did that, but it aborts installation because i get the error: Installer needs to commit changes to partition tables but cant due to "/cdrom" cant be unmounted" | 07:53 |
| renyef | vG|qum^: can you post me the full error using a pastebin | 07:54 |
| Jooder492 | i am currently running ubuntu on vertualbox. i was wondering if there was a way to make ubuntu run at 1024x768 screen resolution so that i can go fullscreen | 07:54 |
| LucidGuy | ctrl-F | 07:54 |
| renyef | Parsley: umount /cdrom | 07:54 |
| aj_444 | LucidGuy: Like photoshop? Thats the one reason I still have vista on my desktop. <_< adobe needs to get with it. | 07:54 |
| Jooder492 | that dosent work. it stays at the 800x700 with confrol f | 07:54 |
| syntax | why when a play a song it says streaming in rhythmbox,totem player | 07:54 |
| WIGGMPk | LucidGuy: not really a need for it.. most software is primarily made for Windows platforms and eventually ported to Mac by the manufacturer. usually Mac made software releases Windows ports around the same time.. as far as what I have seen | 07:54 |
| Parsley | renyef: it doesn't have a cdrom, i think it's talking about unmounting the liveCD partition itself :( | 07:54 |
| WIGGMPk | LucidGuy: have you tried just adopting the Open Source equivalents? like GIMP? they even have a Photoshop like | 07:55 |
| WIGGMPk | LucidGuy: err hit the enter key... Photoshop like skin pack | 07:55 |
| aj_444 | WIGGMPk: GIMP isn't nearly as good as Photoshop | 07:55 |
| LucidGuy | aj_444, I can get away with using photoshop in my XP virtualbox .. but video editing like Premier etc just wont cut it in VirtualBox. | 07:56 |
| LucidGuy | WIGGMPk, Yes I use GIMP all the time now for simple things, but its noo photoshop. | 07:56 |
| DigitalKiwi | Jooder492: install the guest additions | 07:56 |
| LucidGuy | Video editing Ive tried a bunch ... cinelerra seems the best so far, but now Im running into compliling me work issues. | 07:57 |
| WIGGMPk | LucidGuy: aj_444: I agree it doesnt have all of the features.. but the more people to adopt and use it.. the faster development can pick up.. | 07:57 |
| iorgu | I have a hp Pavilion dv5 laptop, with an ATi mobility radeon 512Mb video card. I think that the processor is in use more than the video card it self. The windows are breaking into parts while moving them. And if I choose to have extra effects on desktop, than for example, the films I play are blinking while they are played. What explains this? What is the rezolution for this? How could I make my Ubuntu to say: "Please, use my video card."? | 07:57 |
| iorgu | Thank you ! | 07:57 |
| jhattara | WIGGMPk, GIMP is missing lots of features Photoshop has, and it still cannot understand the CMYK color coded PSD files at all | 07:57 |
| Parsley | renyef: when i do sudo umount /cdrom it says "/cdrom is busy" (again, this computer does not have a CDROM | 07:57 |
| vG|qum^ | renyef - did u saw my pm? | 07:57 |
| DigitalKiwi | cinepaint > gimp | 07:57 |
| renyef | vG|qum^: ya sec | 07:57 |
| renyef | Parsley: so you created a boot usb using unetbootin? | 07:57 |
| aj_444 | WIGGMPk: Agreed. Its too difficult to learn though. I tried both, photoshop and GIMP on the same day, Adobe just makes it easier to find what you need. | 07:58 |
| WIGGMPk | jhattara: now you lost me.. I am not a designer lol.. | 07:58 |
| Parsley | renyef: correct, because it cannot boot from anything except HDD | 07:58 |
| aj_444 | LucidGuy: Yep. Thats sadly why we have windows. | 07:58 |
| WIGGMPk | aj_444: well, the difference between a commercially developed app and a free one is relevant in this situation than. | 07:58 |
| LucidGuy | You would think that a MAC OSX emulator would be pretty easy since OSX is bsd unix based. Then we could use the mac versions of Adobe products .. and maybe even Final Cut Pro... weee | 07:59 |
| LucidGuy | and WINE I think is pretty crap. | 07:59 |
| aj_444 | WIGGPk: I'm all for open source, but GIMP isn't the way to go for photo editing. | 07:59 |
| renyef | Parsley: go into your bios and set boot from usb | 07:59 |
| WIGGMPk | aj_444: LucidGuy: how does a VM hold up when doing Photoshop projects? Memory? Processing Power? is the lack of 3D acceleration important? (again, not a designer lol) | 07:59 |
| jhattara | WIGGMPk, meant that GIMP only understands RGB computer graphics palette, while PS by default saves everything in CMYK printing palette | 07:59 |
| Parsley | renyef: already tried that, it doesnt support that | 08:00 |
| LucidGuy | I dont want to find an alternative to Adobe products because MAC supports them. | 08:00 |
| aj_444 | WIGGMPk: I run vista on my desktop, so I run adobe products there. | 08:00 |
| jhattara | Photoshop is one of the three reasons I still have XP on my laptop | 08:00 |
| renyef | Parsley: your bios wont allow you to c hange boot priority usb first? | 08:01 |
| aj_444 | jhattara: same with me and vista. its a love/hate relationship | 08:01 |
| LucidGuy | WIGGMPk, I use photoshop for minor photo editing .. like sharpening colour level adjustments and more advanced stuff .and my virtual box runs just fine... a little slow compared to native. | 08:01 |
| Parsley | renyef: what do i edit so it stops thinking of (hd0,2) as "/cdrom"? "/" is going on a seperate partition, they should not interfere | 08:01 |
| WIGGMPk | jhattara: oh I get what you were talking about.. but to me, I dont see the difference... however, someone like you do.. I am just not a picture guy in general | 08:01 |
| Parsley | renyef: it does but it cannot boot from a usb storage device such as external HDD or flash drive | 08:01 |
| jhattara | the other two is the lack of proper GUI for DVD authoring, and the (another Adobe thingy) lack of perfect Flash support | 08:02 |
| LucidGuy | alright .. its 3am here in Toronto .. I think I should get some sleep. | 08:02 |
| aj_444 | Parsley: Burn to a CD then. | 08:02 |
| aj_444 | LucidGuy: Its two here. I probably should head to bed too. | 08:02 |
| Parsley | aj_444: i dont have an external CD drive | 08:02 |
| wrsg | yesterday i did an update and got the new.15 kernel, but i was in a rush and skipped the debconf update where i think it adds it to the boot list | 08:02 |
| LucidGuy | jhattara, .. there is SOOOO much that the linux world is missing out on. Its tobad | 08:02 |
| wrsg | is there any way to get it back | 08:02 |
| aj_444 | Parsley: You can order one for like $5. | 08:03 |
| iorgu | I have a hp Pavilion dv5 laptop, with an ATi mobility radeon 512Mb video card. I think that the processor is in use more than the video card it self.

How could I say: "Plz, be so kind and use my video card, dear Ubuntu"? Thank you in advance! | 08:03 |
| jhattara | WIGGMPk, it's not about preferences, it's just that as Photoshop is kind of an industry standard you eventually run into files you need to edit that GIMP cannot open | 08:03 |
| aj_444 | Parsley: What kind of computer do you have? | 08:03 |

| GhostWolfy | well just a sec slug im still trying to least set my homepage back up | 08:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Lots of people use Nvidia cards Danbo19 - clarify your question to the channel. | 08:57 |
| Danbo19 | I'm just setting up Ubuntu on my desktop, and the max resolution I can get is 640x 480 | 08:58 |
| aemyr | Nvidia is hassle-free you only need to enable the propr. driver if you want 3e | 08:58 |
| aemyr | 3d*\\ | 08:58 |
| legend2440 | Danbo19: in terminal type nvidia-settings set resolution under x server display configuration | 09:00 |
| Dr_Willis | !sudo | 09:00 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 09:00 |
| Dr_Willis | You may need gksu nvidia-setttings | 09:00 |
| Andorin | fceu (the NES emulator in repos) sometimes completely freezes during gameplay and I have to open the System Monitor to close it, because the window won't otherwise not close. Any idea what's causing it? | 09:01 |
| livingdaylight | what is difference between usplash and gdm? | 09:01 |
| Dr_Willis | gdm is the LOGIN manager/screen | 09:01 |
| Dr_Willis | usplash just shows the silly animation at boot time | 09:01 |
| Dr_Willis | boot -> grub menu -> usplash -> gdm -> login and get to X. | 09:01 |
| Danbo19 | in nvidia-settings the maximum resolution I can find is 640x480 | 09:02 |
| livingdaylight | what is difference between usplash and gdm? | 09:02 |
| lstarnes | livingdaylight: see what Dr_Willis said | 09:02 |
| lstarnes | !fixres | Danbo19 | 09:02 |
| ubottu | Danbo19: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 09:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Do i need to type LOUDER? :) | 09:02 |
| livingdaylight | Istarnes i misssed it | 09:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Danbo19: you did install the nvidia drivers? | 09:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Danbo19: then rebooted? | 09:03 |
| Danbo19 | yes | 09:03 |
| legend2440 | Danbo19: open system>admin>hardware drivers is 173 the only option? is there a 180 option? | 09:03 |
| Dr_Willis | thats.. weird then Danbo19 | 09:03 |
| Danbo19 | there is 173 and 96 | 09:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Danbo19: vga or DVI or laptop monitor? | 09:04 |
| Danbo19 | vga | 09:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive found ihave MUCH less hassles with DVI :) | 09:04 |
| Danbo19 | sweet | 09:04 |
| Dr_Willis | in short.. if you can use DVI.. then DO it. :) | 09:04 |
| Dr_Willis | shame my netbooks dont have dvi out.. just vga | 09:05 |

| lstarnes | Starcraftmazter: it's a special-purpose account intended solely for use by web servers | 09:11 |
| Starcraftmazter | lstarnes: ok, i need to start/stop postgres server from php, and im using shell_exec, but its not working, so i was hoping to debug it by logging in as www-data... | 09:12 |
| Starcraftmazter | lstarnes: do you know why it may not work | 09:12 |
| lstarnes | Starcraftmazter: possibly because postgres is running as another user | 09:12 |
| Starcraftmazter | lstarnes: its not running | 09:13 |
| Starcraftmazter | lstarnes: exact same command works from my user | 09:13 |
| lstarnes | Starcraftmazter: it is considered insecure to use a web script for starting or stopping postgres | 09:13 |
| xsebsx | ok so i just did as adviced by this link http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome | 09:13 |
| xsebsx | to get rid of xubuntu | 09:13 |
| Starcraftmazter | lstarnes: i know, this is purely for testing purposes | 09:13 |

| lstarnes | Starcraftmazter: I'm not sure how to do it in PHP | 09:13 |

| Starcraftmazter | lstarnes: is it possible to run a php script under a different user? | 09:14 |
| Agion | anyone has made a screenlet widget here? | 09:14 |

| erUSUL | xsebsx: no those settings are kept on your home folder. | 09:27 |

| perscitus | Anyone experience a package conflict between Koffice (or specfically, Kformula) and Konversation (Ubuntu)? | 09:27 |
| jrwr | acronica: thing is acting flat out retarted | 09:27 |
| GhostWolfy | btw someone is trying to pm me trying to join them on another server and a channel letting people know this since this is a help chan.. | 09:28 |
| acronica | jrwr: here's a HOWTO on how to install radeonHD: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonHD | 09:28 |
| grawity | veinor: apt-get purge (or dpkg --purge) will remove system-wide settings too (from /etc, for example) | 09:28 |
| xsebsx | i came here about an hour and a half ago, i said i was having trouble with xfce at the xubuntu channel, no one helped, so i went to the kubuntu and the ubuntu channel, i said the panel had dissappeared, i tried to fix the problem and then everything went crazy, i come back to kde an dtry to remove xfce and it wipes kubuntu out too and part of gnome's packages | 09:28 |
| xsebsx | and nicotine is still not workign | 09:28 |
| acronica | jrwr: I know. I have the same videocard, it worked like a charm with OpenSuse, couldn't get it working with Ubuntu | 09:28 |
| veinor | grawity: even then, I've had stuff survive an apt-get --purge | 09:28 |
| grawity | GuidMorrow: If someone is advertising his own channel - notify #freenode, or use /ignore, depending on your preferences | 09:28 |
| veinor | er, apt-get purge | 09:28 |
| bazhang | xsebsx, and now you have kubuntu again? | 09:28 |

| GhostWolfy | can anyone please help me?? im trying to install adobe flashplayer and i can't get it to install | 09:28 |
| grawity | veinor: 'purge' only removes files that apt knows about. | 09:29 |
| jrwr | acronica: hows the 3d accel with that driver set | 09:29 |
| GhostWolfy | i even try in terminal and doesn't work | 09:29 |
| slug | GhostWolfy: whats the output from terminal | 09:29 |
| xsebsx | bazhang: that's downloading, but nicotine is still not opening, and how do i know how many packages of gnome were lost to reinstall those specifically? | 09:29 |
| GuidMorrow | grawity - ??? | 09:29 |
| grawity | Nevermind. | 09:29 |
| GuidMorrow | when did that happen | 09:29 |

| GhostWolfy | when i type sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin it loads it like its fine then says package adobe-flashplugin is not available, but is refered by another package. | 09:30 |
| eyalw | I have a problem. I'm trying to login to my user home at my university. when I ssh from the terminal it works, when I "connect to server..." using the gui, it times out, help! | 09:30 |
| xsebsx | restart required brb | 09:30 |
| GhostWolfy | then says This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 09:31 |
| GhostWolfy | is only available from another source | 09:31 |
| GhostWolfy | E: Package adobe-flashplugin has no installation candidate | 09:31 |
| GuidMorrow | is there a program to wipe partitions? I'm running a dual-boot with Ubuntu and Windows and my windows installation is screwed | 09:31 |
| grawity | GhostWolfy: Try flashplugin-installer | 09:31 |
| heatmzzr | I am happy,, im running 9. on this acer aspire, and its working hahaha | 09:31 |
| ikonia | GhostWolfy: try flashplugin-nonfree | 09:31 |
| mattycoze | QUESTION: Are VirtualBox Partitions able to be booted via the GRUB menu? | 09:31 |
| GhostWolfy | erm which one folks?? | 09:31 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: no | 09:31 |
| lstarnes | mattycoze: no | 09:31 |
| grawity | GuidMorrow: There is, but usually it's more than enough to just remove and recreate the partition. | 09:31 |
| Steeley | GhostyWolfy: what version of Ubuntu are you on? | 09:31 |
| slug | GhostWolfy: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 09:31 |
| GhostWolfy | ok thanks slug | 09:32 |
| lstarnes | mattycoze: I think grub only understands real partitions | 09:32 |
| grawity | GuidMorrow: No need to wipe data. | 09:32 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: you need virtualbox container running to be able to use the virtual box partitions | 09:32 |
| GuidMorrow | I was wondering if I should put Windows 7 put there instead of reinstalling XP | 09:32 |
| ikonia | GuidMorrow: that's your decision | 09:32 |
| GhostWolfy | well got flash back but still not working properly :S hmm never had a problem before :S | 09:33 |

| uuv | Hi. I've got a file bigger than 2 gigs, and I'm trying to get it on my ntfs file system portable HDD by creating .rar files of fixed sizes, but when i try it with package manager, it just says "adding files to archive" and does nothing. How can i create for example 2 files of 1,5 gigs so that they fit. | 09:33 |
| GhostWolfy | slug i tried | 09:33 |
| GhostWolfy | but it gave me a file i don't know how to install or even open | 09:33 |

| ikonia | uuv: ntfds can handle files bigger than 2 gig - leave it as 1 file | 09:33 |
| slug | download it to desktop... | 09:33 |
| GhostWolfy | like some .so file | 09:33 |
| quantum | Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 09:34 |
| ikonia | GhostWolfy: if you use the package flashplugin-nonfree it won't give you that file - it will do it all for you | 09:34 |
| uuv | Oh, sorry! I meant fat32 of course | 09:34 |
| bazhang | quantum, with sudo? | 09:34 |

| GhostWolfy | ikonia but i have problems with flash | 09:34 |
| quantum | sudo apt-get install samba libpam-smbpass | 09:34 |

| bazhang | quantum, all other instances of apt are closed ? | 09:34 |
| mattycoze | dam; ikonia lstarness I've got an issue here, I've got XP on an ISO which I run through virtuabox but I figure I need it to run indepently (with a dualboot option at startup; I don't have a disk big enough, or a free USB to host the 835mB ISO, so would it boot off the ISO and install XP from that onto another partition? | 09:34 |
| quantum | yeah | 09:34 |
| Agion | can anyone tell me how to install a widget to screenlet from a python file? | 09:35 |

| Michalxo | perscitus, paste please whole output (PM?) or on pastebin | 09:41 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: you're missing dependencies and looks like a version conflict also at a glance | 09:41 |
| Danbo19 | Its a fresh install, the only thing | 09:41 |
| xsebsx | ikonia: great, that''s more than before, what do i have to do to solve this? | 09:41 |
| Danbo19 | I did was install the restricted drive | 09:41 |
| nighty^ | http://www.sharp.co.jp/netwalker/ | 09:42 |
| perscitus | Michalxo: your assumptions of error output is funny. | 09:42 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: first thing would be to install the dependency packages, then work out the conflict | 09:42 |
| ikonia | nighty^: what's that fore ? | 09:42 |
| ikonia | for | 09:42 |
| Michalxo | perscitus, if you have better idea, then go for it ;) | 09:42 |

| nighty^ | bazhang, you call pasting one little link in this channel spam ? | 09:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Linaxys: one way would be launch it from rc.local | 09:44 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: search the pyvorbis (python->vobis bindings_ package, that seems a good start | 09:44 |
| Danbo19 | ummm | 09:44 |

| Danbo19 | CRT??? | 09:44 |

| Michalxo | perscitus, with pleasure | 09:44 |
| Michalxo | insane people | 09:44 |
| lstarnes | Danbo19: as in those old, bulky monitors | 09:44 |

| === Guest42308 is now known as Ekushey | ||
| Linaxys | Dr_Willis, do I just have to insert the command like "./home/linaxys/q3ded/q3launch.sh &" ? | 09:45 |
| lstarnes | Danbo19: is it like a flat panel? | 09:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Linaxys: basically use the proper path. | 09:45 |
| Danbo19 | lemme google the stuff on the back of the monitor | 09:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Linaxys: the server will get ran as root this way.. you may not want that.. or you might | 09:45 |
| lstarnes | Linaxys: you could also run it as a cron job by adding it to your crontab | 09:45 |
| xsebsx | ikonia if i type pyvorbis it says there's no matching application available | 09:46 |
| VuZe | Hey guys, I've got a bit of a long problem | 09:46 |

| x802 | what does !list and @find do? | 09:46 |
| GhostWolfy | or slug?? | 09:46 |
| xsebsx | ikonia: no matching application available | 09:47 |
| lstarnes | x802: those are not supposed to be used | 09:47 |
| perscitus | Michalxo: I have told you repeatly, there is a package conflict. All you do is assume i am noob who doesnt know how to troubleshot. The two packages will not let each install if it is installed. | 09:47 |
| xsebsx | ikonia: this doesn't make any sense, nicotine was workign well, hten i downloaded xubuntu and then i started having troubles with it | 09:47 |
| lstarnes | x802: as ubottu said, it's associated with file sharing channels | 09:47 |
| Michalxo | perscitus, cause of some libs ;) | 09:47 |
| legend2440 | GhostWolfy: yes try this page to test flashplayer http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/ | 09:47 |
| xsebsx | lstarnes: no results available | 09:48 |
| VuZe | I've got two main hard disks on my computer - C: and F:. C is my amin drive, and F is for backups etc. I recently installed Ubuntu onto the F drive, but the F drive started failing and having errors so i decided to partition the C rive and reinstal it onto there | 09:48 |
| legend2440 | GhostWolfy: shockwave wont show anything but flashplaer should | 09:48 |
| VuZe | My poblem is that grub is recognising my F drive as hd0 and when it installs ubuntu it copies grub to hd0 | 09:48 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, it doesn't | 09:48 |
| VuZe | so I have to boot from the faulty HDD to start linux | 09:49 |
| GhostWolfy | it tells gives me an option to install plugin and says no suitable plugins | 09:49 |
| grawity | VuZe: C: and F: are Windows things, and using them on Linux channels may be confusing for many. | 09:49 |
| GhostWolfy | were found | 09:49 |
| VuZe | alright then, F is hd0 and C is hd1 | 09:49 |
| echelon | grawity: even then, i've got a file says no shit | 09:49 |
| gajop | if i upgrade to ubuntu 9.10 alpha 3 now, will i be able to upgrade to ubuntu 9.10 release when it comes out in october, or will i need to reinstall everything? | 09:49 |
| grawity | echelon: Huh? | 09:49 |
| bazhang | !ohmy > echelon | 09:50 |

| perscitus | Michalxo: either way. i filed a bug report. #420990 | 09:50 |
| VuZe | Ubuntu works fine, but grub is installed onto hd0 which is faulty, can I transfer grub onto hd1 so I dont have to rely on a faulty HDD to boot? | 09:50 |
| xsebsx | ikonia: so if i wait till the next release i can get the kde i had before? | 09:50 |
| Dr_Willis | VuZe: You can isntall the grub boot loader to other disks.. but you may alwo want to copy the files from /boot/ to a safer place also. | 09:51 |
| legend2440 | Danbo19: you may need to enter resolutions manually under Section "Screen" here is how mine is http://paste.ubuntu.com/261367/ | 09:51 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, when i went to that site it asks me to install missing plugins and when i do it says it can't find the suitable ones | 09:51 |
| Dr_Willis | VuZe: or put it on both disks. :) and tell the bios to boot the more relieable one. | 09:51 |
| VuZe | how can I do that? | 09:51 |
| VuZe | grub install hd1? | 09:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub | 09:51 |
| ubottu | GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 09:51 |

| perscitus | Michalxo: What I really wanted to do is install KDE apps on gnome to use them. And perhaps then I can comfortably change to KDE | 09:52 |
| Dr_Willis | VuZe: I forget the exact commands.. its doable. theres several commands that can install grub. | 09:52 |

| GhostWolfy | legend2440, well i removed the nonfree one how do i remove the installer?? | 09:57 |
| nimrod | ok :-) | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | nimrod: ubuntu release versions make it easy to know when they came out, e.g. 9.10 is release in october, 10th month in 2000 and 9 | 09:57 |
| legend2440 | GhostWolfy: sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-installer | 09:57 |
| Michalxo | perscitus, I am trying that install... just for you... | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | nimrod: do intrepid 8.10 came out in october 2008 | 09:57 |
| xsebsx | lstarnes: how do i know if i have all the gnome apps i'm supsoed to have and how do i reinstall them if necessary? | 09:57 |
| GhostWolfy | ok thanks legend2440 | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: theres no such thing as an app you are supposed to have | 09:58 |
| vG|qum^ | i reintstalled it | 09:58 |
| vG|qum^ | doesn't seem to help | 09:58 |
| matt132 | If one program that plays sound is opened...sound won't play out of any other program (vlc, banshee, firefox, etc.) Is there away around this. I'm using 9.04 | 09:58 |
| perscitus | Michalxo: i wasnt gonna ask.. but thanks | 09:58 |
| nimrod | ActionParsnip, ok, i see | 09:58 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, i did that should i try to reinstall it again or what?? not the installer the flash player | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: if you dont need certain apps you can remove them | 09:58 |
| DJNoMaD | I have a 160 hdd that bios will not boot from and a 1 gb hdd that is bootable,can I partition it somehow to get it to work ? | 09:58 |
| lstarnes | xsebsx: install the gnome package or ubuntu-desktop | 09:58 |

| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: i was trying to get rid of xfce before and it wiped out kde and some apps from ubuntu too | 09:58 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: I want to have what i originally installed hwen i installed ubuntu | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: then reinstall what you need | 09:59 |
| frogzoo | echelon: wrong window much? | 09:59 |
| xsebsx | that's what i meant | 09:59 |
| nimrod | is 9.04 a beta version of 9.10? | 09:59 |
| eena | no | 09:59 |
| legend2440 | GhostWolfy: yes close firefox reinstall and try it | 09:59 |
| Michalxo | nimrod, YEAR.MONTH | 09:59 |
| lstarnes | nimrod: no | 09:59 |
| DJNoMaD | xsebsx, google pure gnome and i think that will do you right | 09:59 |
| GhostWolfy | ok legend2440 | 09:59 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: but how do i know hwat i need? i don't know all the programs that come with ubuntu desktop? | 09:59 |
| nimrod | i see | 09:59 |
| lstarnes | nimrod: it's a seperate version | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop will reinstall the default apps but if you have what you need then its a waste of time | 09:59 |
| eena | oo i c~ | 09:59 |
| nimrod | cool | 09:59 |
| lstarnes | nimrod: it's not a typical release numbering scheme | 10:00 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: you need to evaluate what you use to achieve what you want to achieve | 10:00 |
| yugiohjcj | ActionParsnip, hum...But I already enable the hardware acceleration for my ATI Radeon graphic card...The problem is that the game are slow | 10:00 |
| eXapid | thats normal yug :) | 10:00 |
| lstarnes | nimrod: most versions use MAJOR.MINOR | 10:00 |
| DJNoMaD | xsebsx, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome | 10:00 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: you are using an OS where choice exists rather than a nazi style dictatorship, you need to actually think and look at what you use and what you do not | 10:00 |
| lstarnes | nimrod: ubuntu's versions are YEAR.MONTH | 10:00 |
| perscitus | nimrod: Dont confuse Vista and 7. Each Ubuntu release is a relatively bug free | 10:00 |
| nimrod | lstarnes: ok, i see | 10:00 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: you need to look at what you actually want to do and have an app for each thing. the rest is surplus | 10:00 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: can you help me get nicotine to work? | 10:01 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, ok still says i don't have it and when i went to the link to see if i have flash it asks to install or not | 10:01 |
| perscitus | Michalxo: So, howd the packages work? | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | !info nicotine | 10:01 |
| ubottu | nicotine (source: nicotine): graphical client for the SoulSeek peer-to-peer system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.9+dfsg-3ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 823 kB, installed size 3696 kB | 10:01 |

| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: not something i use | 10:01 |
| GhostWolfy | but i reinstalled the one i got from the site.. and still not showing up | 10:01 |
| yugiohjcj | my graphic card ATI Radeon X1950 Pro doesn't works correctly on Ubuntu 9.04, hadware acceleration is enabled but video games are slow, what should I do please? | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: reinstall it is all i can suggest | 10:01 |
| xsebsx | but then i'll lose | 10:01 |
| xsebsx | my previous downloads | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | yugiohjcj: check aticonfig | 10:02 |
| legend2440 | GhostWolfy: in terminal try sudo update-flashplugin | 10:02 |
| noobez | i installed flash player from bash but whenever firefox encounters a page that needs it, it freezes and i have to reboot cuz NOTHING works anymore, what's happening? thanks | 10:02 |
| yugiohjcj | ActionParsnip, how? | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: you may not, if the config is in your home dir then you wont lose anything at all | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | yugiohjcj: its a command line tool | 10:02 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: ok, i will lose my previous downloads then but it seems like a viable solution, i have to get rid of it first though, how do i do that? | 10:02 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, says this sudo: update-flashplugin: command not found | 10:02 |
| Michalxo | perscitus, see PM ;) | 10:02 |
| yugiohjcj | ActionParsnip, it isn't installed | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: you dont need to get rid, you can use the --reinstall option | 10:03 |
| DJNoMaD | xsebsx, I have done this and it worked pretty good getting back to gnome only | 10:03 |
| DJNoMaD | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome | 10:03 |
| gogereaver | ActionParsnip: bo | 10:03 |
| yugiohjcj | ActionParsnip, but my hardware acceleration is enabled | 10:03 |
| legend2440 | GhostWolfy: ok open firefox edit> preferences>content tab is java and javascript enabled? | 10:03 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: how do i check that the congif is in my home folder | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | yugiohjcj: aticonfig is the command, if you dont have it then the driver isnt correctly installed | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: cd ~; ls -a | 10:04 |
| GhostWolfy | yes legend2440 | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | xsebsx: if you see a folder named .nicotine then that is the config for the app | 10:04 |
| yugiohjcj | ActionParsnip, ok. But if I follow the instructions when I type 'sudo insmod /lib/modules/`uname -r`/volatile/fglrx.ko' I got : No such file or directory | 10:05 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: just used the reinstall option and when i clicked on the launcher i got the same thing | 10:05 |
| perscitus | Anyone running Ubuntu 9.04 please try installing Kformula and Konversation? | 10:05 |
| Maleko | hey is there way to force apt to reinstall package's config files when installing a package? | 10:05 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: how do i get rid of nicotine and then reinstall it? | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | yugiohjcj: then the driver isnt installed correctly | 10:06 |
| oenchoe | syn | 10:06 |

| optimus | is there anyone who can help me | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | !recover | optimus | 10:19 |
| ubottu | optimus: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 10:19 |
| Linaxys | tiritchi, #ubuntu-fr | 10:20 |

| velko | DodgerDog, go to system -> preferences -> appearance -> visual effects and select "none" | 10:20 |

| ActionParsnip | Linaxys: sure, just remove the . from th start of the line you have and add it to rc.local but above the exit line | 10:20 |
| xsebsx | ActionParsnip: put your hand on top of your heart, feel it beat, think sooner or later it's not gonna beat anymore, that's just how i feel about not being able to fix the nicotine problem when it was working perfectly before | 10:20 |
| Linaxys | okay thanks ActionParsnip | 10:20 |
| Linaxys | but hmm, this script will need an input, is it correct to add "nohup" near it ? | 10:21 |
| Linaxys | it's a dedicated server | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | noobez: sudo apt-get --purge remove adobe-flashplugin; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; firefox http://www.rathergood.com/blode2 | 10:21 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about on ext4 | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Linaxys: then your system bootup will hang until you provide the input | 10:22 |
| Linaxys | okay so i still can add a "&" in the end of the line ? | 10:22 |
| velko | optimus, ubottu is a prgram, not a human | 10:22 |

| noobez | ActionParsnip: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove > this command makes all the automatic installed packages to get removed, but not all of em belong to flash, lotz of em indeed belong to other apps, and if i remove em these apps wont work... | 10:25 |
| five | It says a "standard system upgrade" but I don't know what that is? | 10:25 |
| Linaxys | ActionParsnip, it doesn't start on reboot.. :/ is there a way to get the startup log so I can see why it didn't start ? | 10:25 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, it was a clean install | 10:26 |
| lstarnes | five: updating packages through the update manager is usually sufficient | 10:26 |
| five | lstarnes: does the update manager have a command line version? | 10:26 |
| ActionParsnip | shyam: worst outcome is the module isnt loaded. as it is non-essential you will still get a boot if you try | 10:26 |
| five | Because I'm running a server. | 10:26 |
| lstarnes | five: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 10:26 |
| shyam | ActionParsnip: sure:) | 10:26 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, was clean install cause when i was bout to install had lost some stuff on another hdd which i wanted to switch so i just used killdisk and then installed jaunty | 10:27 |
| shyam | and which will be the best frontend for wvdial? | 10:27 |
| five | lstarnes: Ah, that does the base system as well? | 10:27 |
| eena | j #ubuntu-my | 10:27 |
| lstarnes | five: yes | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | noobez: autoremove uninstalls orphaned packages that you no longer need as you have uninstalled the apps that use them and nothing else uses them | 10:27 |
| * shyam just installing gnome-ppp | 10:27 | |
| five | lstarnes: Thanks! Wasn't sure :-) | 10:27 |
| lstarnes | five: almost everything in the base system is packaged | 10:27 |
| five | Thanks again. | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Linaxys: not sure dude | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | !boot | Linaxys | 10:27 |
| ubottu | Linaxys: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 10:27 |
| shyam | oook gnome-ppp is so cool.. | 10:28 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, do you think it be better if i backed up everything i have and just do a reinstall of jaunty?? | 10:28 |
| Linaxys | thanks | 10:28 |
| shyam | see ya later.. bye | 10:28 |
| legend2440 | GhostWolfy: not sure. i think between the open source plugin and the adobe one things got messed up somehow | 10:29 |
| optimus | ActionParsnip: foremost will it help | 10:29 |
| GhostWolfy | legend2440, yea i know i had it worked before when i first installed jaunty and went to 8.04 and then came back to jaunty.. | 10:30 |
| GhostWolfy | legend but if you think of anything let me know i need to run up someplace real quick so i'll bbiab | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | optimus: should do | 10:30 |

| lucas_ | hey | 10:40 |
| lucas_ | how can i use ipod touch on ubuntu | 10:40 |
| jackdamiels | I got some questions. I set up a old pc with ubuntu without GUI . My idea was that he servs as torrent seeder. I managed to set up ssh and I can login to him through wireless connection and routher. The problem is that when I log out my torrent client shoutdown, which is understanding. Question is how to managed that machine is automaticly log in without prompt for username and pass, because I dont have keyboard or mouse on. | 10:41 |
| gogereaver | lucas_: thers no i touch support in linux thank apple | 10:44 |
| gogereaver | lucas_: unless its jailbroken then you can do it wireless | 10:44 |
| Dr_Willis | jackdamiels: use 'screen' to sesshin manage the running cli programs. is one way. | 10:44 |
| Dr_Willis | jackdamiels: or launch things from /etc/rc.local actually you may be able to launch a screen session running the apps so you can ssh in and check on them also | 10:45 |
| jackdamiels | that seem ok but I have to study that deepr. in other words I hardly understand | 10:46 |

| manuel | ok i traced it back to hal-acl-tool --reconfigure | 10:56 |
| joaopinto | Gnea, it is safer to use autoremove, and it should be suggested if you need to release some disk space | 10:56 |

| Gnea | perscitus: okay, yes, I do get the same error. | 11:01 |
| Gnea | perscitus: but if I do a: sudo apt-get install kdelibs5 it doesn't give any error | 11:01 |
| joaopinto | noobez, that is not related to the apt-get autoremove at all | 11:02 |
| toxin | i cant make new folder to my another hard disk it just says "You are not owner so you cant give premissions" i just formatted it | 11:02 |
| toxin | im formating it to ext3 | 11:02 |

| noobez | Gnea: listen, i've read the guidelines before and im sure i didnt break any rule cuz i didnt say anything rude but still if whatever i said hurted u im sorry, but i didnt mean it that way, alright? | 11:07 |
| toxin | How i can get to my SDB hard disk? | 11:08 |
| noobez | Gnea: im just going crazy cuz firefox crashes continuosly without an apparent reason (prolly flash?) and amarok now takes like an hour to scan the collection, etc etc | 11:08 |
| JohnCorbeau | mistereverywhere: go to the website for the game, download and probably compile it :) | 11:08 |
| toxin | with terminal | 11:08 |
| Gnea | noobez: I'm just letting you know, that tone can be interpretted quite well by most of us over the internet. We will help you solve the problem, but patience from your side will be required in order to do so. okay? | 11:08 |
| mistereverywhere | johncorbeau i dont think i got it off a website i think i may have found it \ | 11:09 |
| toxin | How i can get to my SDB hard disk with terminal? | 11:09 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> libs install fine. | 11:09 |
| JohnCorbeau | toxin: what do you mean? | 11:09 |
| Gnea | noobez: does flash crash firefox randomly or at some sort of regular interval? | 11:09 |
| Gnea | perscitus: okay, try konversation now | 11:09 |
| JohnCorbeau | toxin: did you mount it ? | 11:09 |
| Michalxo | perscitus, probably impossible to to have both packages.. dependencies of both are opaque.. they are exclusive :-( | 11:09 |
| toxin | I did | 11:09 |
| mistereverywhere | johncorbeau the real issue is that i cant get the gnome-games package to laod cause it has dependency that isnt met cause the file available in teh repo is to new | 11:09 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> Konversation installs fine by itself. So does Kformula | 11:09 |
| toxin | i wanna create file to it | 11:09 |
| Gnea | perscitus: excellent. | 11:10 |
| Michalxo | perscitus, but as you could see on Karmic no problem | 11:10 |
| noobez | Gnea: of course i no, but still i dont think ive been that impatient, anyway i want to let u no if i seemed rude or non respectful toward ppl who r here volontarily i did not mean it that way, ok? | 11:10 |
| JohnCorbeau | so all its stuff should be located in the folder to which you mounted it | 11:10 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> So its a conflict | 11:10 |
| Gnea | noobez: yeah, it's cool | 11:10 |
| toxin | but i dont "own" that harddisk | 11:10 |
| toxin | and i wanna change ownership of it | 11:10 |
| Gnea | perscitus: more like a safeguard - Ubuntu is primarily a gnome-based GUI, while Kubuntu is a kde-based GUI | 11:11 |
| noobez | Gnea: if i open up youtube for example (i have noscript enabled so i have to "allow temporarly the page") when it gets to reload the page in order to make flash interact with it it gets stuck | 11:11 |
| JohnCorbeau | hm, I don't know what's best practice | 11:11 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> one that needs fixing | 11:11 |
| Gnea | perscitus: we just fixed it. | 11:11 |
| JohnCorbeau | toxin:but you can own it by "sudo chown -R [username] [foldername]" | 11:12 |
| optimus | if i dont specify the output directory in foremost command then where i should find the recovered files?? | 11:12 |
| Gnea | noobez: okay (btw, noscript rules!!), are you using firefox 3.0 or 3.5? | 11:12 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> what you mean we>? | 11:12 |
| Gnea | perscitus: but I will check to see if it's been reported | 11:12 |
| JohnCorbeau | toxin: -R is for the command to be recursive | 11:12 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> i did. | 11:12 |
| Gnea | perscitus: you and I, just now, solved the problem. the programs installed, they work. thus, the problem is solved on a per-user basis. | 11:13 |
| toxin | well there is no any folders so what i type to [Folder name] | 11:13 |
| manuel | how can i stop hal-acl-tool --reconfigure | 11:13 |
| noobez | Gnea: it's 3.0.13 | 11:13 |
| JohnCorbeau | the folder name is the folder you used to mount your drive | 11:13 |
| Gnea | perscitus: but I see what you're saying, it should be universal | 11:13 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> You mean, we troubleshooted it and narrowed it down. | 11:13 |
| toxin | ehh i dont know it | 11:14 |
| toxin | i used gui | 11:14 |
| Gnea | perscitus: that's another way of looking at it, yes | 11:14 |

| Gnea | perscitus: I thought you said you could... | 11:26 |
| joaopinto | b3rz3rk3r, you dont'r run ""/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" :), you run whatever editor you like with that file as a parameter | 11:26 |
| toxin | erm it just gives error back there is not such file | 11:26 |

| Flannel | manuel: What are you looking for? What sort of development? | 11:27 |
| toxin | omg | 11:27 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, "sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" | 11:27 |
| Gnea | perscitus: you mean, you can do them one at a time, but not like: sudo apt-get install konversation kformula ? | 11:27 |

| noobez | Gnea: unistalled it, installed nonfree, tried the utube thing, firefox freezes anyway :( | 11:27 |

| DOW | is linux ever going to become as good as xp to play games on?? | 11:27 |
| GuidMorrow | is there a program for creating and editing movie files | 11:28 |
| perscitus | Gnea.-> I removed kdelibs5, autoremoved, then reinstalled kdelibs5 then installed kformula and konversation... separately or together | 11:28 |
| joaopinto | tox2ik, you need to use gksudo before the editor | 11:28 |

| perscitus | Gnea.-> Either way, both cant be installed | 11:28 |
| b3rz3rk3r | DOW, because MS has a monopoly on the market | 11:28 |
| toxin | now it worked | 11:28 |
| DOW | oh i see | 11:28 |
| Flannel | manuel: I suppose that'd be #ubuntu-devel, although, I'm not sure if that's really what you're looking for. | 11:28 |
| joaopinto | DOW, there are plenty of open source games that run fine on linux | 11:28 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, now just reboot and you are done | 11:28 |
| toxin | ok | 11:28 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, no more beep! :D | 11:28 |
| DOW | but im looking for the game that i wanted to play for ages | 11:29 |
| toxin | Atleast ubuntu is faster than Windows | 11:29 |
| Gnea | noobez: firefox -P | 11:29 |
| noobez | Gnea: from bash? | 11:29 |
| Gnea | noobez: or firefox -ProfileManager | 11:29 |
| Gnea | noobez: yeah | 11:29 |
| DOW | damn activision they shd make games for linux | 11:29 |
| Flannel | manuel: May also be #ubuntu-programming, depending on what "HAL stuff" you're talking about | 11:29 |
| Gnea | noobez: or alt-f2 | 11:29 |
| joaopinto | DOW, and please ask that question to the game producers, they are the ones that need to support their customers/users :) | 11:29 |

| Flannel | Janhouse: Is it an addon to nautilus? or part of nautilus? or what? Without knowing specifics, it's a definate maybe. | 11:30 |
| noobez | Gnea: alright with a new p it works then the prob is noscript | 11:31 |
| b3rz3rk3r | DOW, if you mean games, then no | 11:31 |
| Dr_Willis | DOW: check out the 'game installer tool' (not supported here) -> http://en.djl-linux.org/ Its nifty | 11:31 |
| DOW | but canthe ubuntu developers do anything about it? | 11:31 |
| Janhouse | Flannel: I don't know. I installed karmic and I it displayed all my encrypted drives and offered to mount them. | 11:31 |
| b3rz3rk3r | DOW, if you dont have a support question please try #ubuntu-ot | 11:31 |
| Dr_Willis | DOW: Ubuntu dosent support 'windows apps' its 'wine' that can run them. | 11:31 |

| KB1JWQ | toxin: AMD pioneered the x86_64 instruction set. | 11:47 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, the architechture was developed by AMD | 11:48 |

| TB | allo | 11:53 |
| toxin | im not using NAT | 11:53 |
| ikonia | Xubuntnoob: you'd have to use techniques like qos | 11:54 |
| ikonia | toxin: that doesn't matter | 11:54 |
| Xubuntnoob | qos? | 11:54 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, do you mean a speed cap? | 11:54 |
| krithika | ikonia, i could only find texmaker. i'm downloading that right now. will try sudo apt-get update after it completes. i have already tried RELOADin spm and updated, by the way. | 11:54 |
| ikonia | Xubuntnoob: packet shaping | 11:54 |
| toxin | it does i dont wanna that random paradox comes to this computer :D | 11:54 |
| Xubuntnoob | oh, that's beyond me i think | 11:54 |
| ikonia | toxin: no it doesn't, using nat or not has nothing to do with your ablility to use a gui for a firewall | 11:55 |
| toxin | yes but i want firefall :D | 11:55 |
| Xubuntnoob | peddy: yes, example savage2 download, it's nice to get 1.2Mb/sec download, but i'd like to browse the internet while i wait | 11:55 |
| toxin | erm can someone help me to config Evolution for gmail? | 11:55 |
| ikonia | toxin: so use one then, as I've just said, nat has nothing to do with it | 11:55 |

| Andy_ | help! I installed another OS on another partition and it deleted my logical partitions from the partition table, but I did not overwrite them. There was/is my linux installation and I cannot access it anymore | 11:58 |
| Andy_ | gpart can't find it as it only finds ntfs and ext and I think it was ext or resierfs - not sure | 11:59 |
| ikonia | Andy_: if you've deleted the partition, you'll need to create and re-install | 11:59 |
| Andy_ | gparted showns the primary partitons as before, only the logical ones have gone | 11:59 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, I'm still looking... seems like all the tools are for Windows. | 12:00 |
| Andy_ | ikonia: can't I simply recreate the partition? Shouldn't the data be still there? | 12:00 |
| ikonia | Andy_: no | 12:00 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, I think DownThemAll may support speed limiting, I'll check | 12:00 |
| Andy_ | I was so dumb to not have a backup | 12:00 |
| chrionix | Hi all, I've just installed and configured mpd, and when I try to run gmpc, it throws a keybinding error for XF86AudioPlay etc, can someone give me a hand? | 12:00 |
| Andy_ | ikonia then is there some recovery tool? I know that even after formating disks data can be recoverd, and here it was not even formated, only the partition table was overwritten | 12:01 |
| ikonia | Andy_: it's not going to happen really | 12:01 |
| Andy_ | :-( | 12:01 |
| ct529 | Peddy: what are you looking for? | 12:02 |
| sebsebseb | Andy_: I think there's a way to add deleted partitions back into a partition table, but it won't be that easy in that case, you could try ##hardware and googleing, by the way there's a program called testdisk that can access data on deleted partitions | 12:02 |
| Peddy | ct529, Xubuntnoob is looking for a way to throttle download speeds in Firefox. | 12:02 |
| purefusion | is casper necessary for usb ubuntu? it's kinda big... installing on a 1GB drive | 12:02 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, I this ( http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/ ) can throttle downloads. | 12:02 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, I'm still looking for something with less bloat, though. | 12:02 |
| Xubuntnoob | Peddy: thanks for your help | 12:03 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, ugh, it's Windows Only. I thought maybe since it integrated with firefox and it was licensed under GPL it would be cross-platform... | 12:03 |
| Xubuntnoob | grr | 12:03 |
| Xubuntnoob | i'm surpriesd there's not an addon for it within the browser | 12:03 |
| toxin | guys im new with Firestarter so does this ask when i open new connection to port example 1234? | 12:03 |
| Andy_ | sebsebseb: I already tried with gpart (not gparted), it also is said to be able to do that, but cannot find ext3 or reiserfs. It found only the old swap and the ntfs. but it says that already. I cannot find testdisk in synaptic if I start from ubunut livecd (intrepid) | 12:04 |
| Andy_ | sebsebseb with ##hardware you mean an irc channel here? | 12:05 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, actually, it looks like Download Them All supports throttling. | 12:05 |
| Peddy | Xubuntnoob, it's a Firefox extension. | 12:05 |
| ct529 | Peddy: throttle? | 12:06 |
| sebsebseb | Andy_: yes I meant an IRC channal, and I Googled testdisk and yep it comes up | 12:06 |
| Peddy | ct529, slow down, limit speed. | 12:06 |
| krithika | purefusion, yes. see http://www.ryancloke.com/ubuntu-804-hardy-heron-live-usb-how-to/ | 12:06 |
| ct529 | Peddy: I think Kget allows for controlling download and upload speed | 12:06 |
| ct529 | Peddy: it could be chosen as default downloa dmanager | 12:07 |
| toxin | guys im new with Firestarter so does this ask when i open new connection to port example 1234? | 12:08 |

| Andy_ | sebsebseb: great, yes, I found now the way to install it in ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387922 and it says it caln also ext3 and reiserfs. I'M so happy. I promise I will never agian play around with my system unless I have a recent backup. Thank you so much for your help, sebsebseb!!! :-) | 12:10 |

| _nano_ | Peddy, wired ethernet | 12:58 |

| _nano_ | Peddy, static ip | 12:59 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Can i come back in 5 minutes? | 12:59 |
| purefusion | Peddy, ok, so doing this is definitely not going to mess up any of the existing data then, right? | 12:59 |
| Peddy | purefusion, no guarantees, something can always go wrong. But I've done it countless times, and it's always worked. Just don't interrupt it once it starts, it could take a while. | 13:00 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, I can configure static ip in networkmanager, but it only gets enabled once you login. I want the network on when the machine turns on, kind of like a server | 13:00 |
| Peddy | purefusion, is the data being moved to the left or the right? | 13:00 |
| purefusion | I assume to the left | 13:00 |
| Peddy | _nano_, can I help you in a sec? it's rather straightforward to do, I've done it many times. | 13:00 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, really appreciate it , i'll wait | 13:01 |
| purefusion | the data is 140 GB, probably from a backup (I believe this was a backup disk previously) | 13:01 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, sure. | 13:01 |
| purefusion | the drive itself is 300 | 13:01 |
| Peddy | purefusion, the data is on the left, right? (the coloured in stuff). You're not moving the location of the data, are you? You're just resizing the partition 'boundary'. | 13:01 |
| Peddy | purefusion, it should work either way, except it takes a very long time to move data (took up to 5 hours for me once). I want to give you an idea of how long it could take. | 13:02 |
| Peddy | If you're just resizing the partition, it'll take less than 5 minutes :) | 13:03 |

| _nano_ | Peddy, yeah you're right, it's automatically assigned IP | 13:11 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, reboot, and select 'recovery mode' from the GRUB menu, please. | 13:11 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Ok | 13:12 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, so which file should I set it at ? | 13:12 |
| Peddy | _nano_, do dhclient -r interfacename | 13:12 |
| Peddy | it could be eth0 | 13:12 |
| Peddy | probably is | 13:12 |
| Shasirox | Yes i have it now | 13:12 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, choose 'drop to root shell' | 13:12 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: done | 13:13 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, it's saying something like Listening on ... Sending On | 13:13 |
| Peddy | _nano_, is the program closed, though? is your prompt there? | 13:13 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, yeah the prompt is there | 13:13 |
| Peddy | _nano_, good. Type ifconfig eth0 down | 13:14 |
| Peddy | those two should probably be the other way around, but that doesn't matter now. What we're doing isn't actually going to stick (yet) | 13:14 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, done, no confirmation message, came back to the prompt | 13:14 |
| purefusion | is 4GB enough ram to not use swap? | 13:14 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, can you type 'sudo apt-get install envyng-core' please | 13:15 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Yes, one sec | 13:15 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, you don't actually need the sudo, but whatever :-P | 13:15 |
| quantum | chmod: invalid mode: `root:users' | 13:16 |
| Peddy | _nano_, do 'ifconfig eth0 192.168.x.x netmask 255.255.255.0 up' | 13:16 |
| quantum | chmod: invalid mode: `root:users' | 13:16 |

| quantum | quantum@quantum:~$ chmod -R root:users /home/samba/ | 13:16 |

| kyja | !fontsfolder | 13:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about fontsfolder | 13:16 |
| quantum | how? | 13:16 |
| Peddy | kyja, ~/.fonts | 13:17 |
| kyja | !fonts | 13:17 |
| ubottu | Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 13:17 |
| quantum | users is a group | 13:17 |
| kyja | ah ok thanks peddy | 13:17 |
| quantum | (with users in it) | 13:17 |
| Peddy | kyja, it might not exist by default | 13:17 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, did. can't ping | 13:17 |
| quantum | perhaps sudo will do it :) | 13:17 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, do 'envyng -t' please. | 13:18 |
| Shasirox | ok | 13:18 |
| Peddy | _nano_, what does ifconfig say? | 13:18 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, is there a way to put gateway in that command? | 13:18 |
| quantum | nope | 13:18 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, well the ip and netmask is showing | 13:18 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, but cant ping | 13:18 |
| quantum | chown... | 13:18 |
| Peddy | _nano_, can you ping another machine on the network? | 13:18 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Now im in EnvyNG Menu :) | 13:18 |

| s0ullight | hello, what filesystem types does the casper-rw file support? for saving persistent changes? | 13:19 |
| sam_sam | any one here plays AOE on linux ?? | 13:19 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, yes I am able to ping other machines in my network, just not outside hosts | 13:19 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, you probably want to choose option 3 | 13:19 |
| pagix | sam_sam, which version ? | 13:19 |
| Peddy | _nano_, that's great, we haven't configured DNS servers yet. | 13:19 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Install ATI drivers? :) | 13:19 |
| sam_sam | AOE 2 conquerors expansion | 13:19 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: I will | 13:19 |
| pagix | Done it | 13:19 |
| === rainy-it is now known as yrainy-it | ||
| pagix | Not working that well though since the fonts fucks up | 13:19 |
| pagix | under wine | 13:20 |
| Zot^ | How do I brighten my laptop display? | 13:20 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, I don't know about DNS servers, it's connected from a router, in networkmanager it never asked me and it worked :( | 13:20 |
| ceil420 | sam_sam, http://appdb.winehq.org will let you see what Windows apps may run reliably in Wine | 13:20 |
| sam_sam | do u play thorugh WINE ?? | 13:20 |
| Peddy | _nano_, don't worry about it, it's easy :) | 13:20 |
| pagix | How else? | 13:20 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, alright | 13:20 |
| Peddy | _nano_, do 'nano /etc/resolv.conf' | 13:20 |
| ceil420 | pagix, crossover? vm? | 13:20 |
| Peddy | er no pun intended. | 13:20 |
| pagix | crosscover sucksass imo. | 13:20 |
| pagix | vm yea | 13:20 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, lol, yeah i see two nameserver entries | 13:20 |
| pagix | Didnt think bout that | 13:20 |
| FloodBot2 | pagix: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 13:21 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: There is now only one option, and that one is already installed... | 13:21 |
| ceil420 | i've never had a problem with CrossOver | 13:21 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, try uninstalling it with option 4 and reinstalling it. | 13:21 |
| Shasirox | ok | 13:21 |
| ceil420 | i've only used it for StarCraft (inc. BroodWar) and Cisco's Packet Tracer, though | 13:21 |
| Peddy | _nano_, what exactly does it say? | 13:21 |
| sam_sam | i have played it with wine previously but now i have a video card and it gives an error ur card doesn't support directdraw.. | 13:21 |
| pagix | Its a matter of taste I guess | 13:21 |
| ceil420 | maybe another program or two i can't think of atm | 13:21 |
| nooneelse | someone knows how to increase the value of the height of the gnome windows title bars ? | 13:21 |
| _nano_ | "# generated by networkmanager \n nameserver 203.200.50.243 \n nameserver 203.200.50.253" | 13:21 |
| ceil420 | sam_sam, have you installed drivers for the card? | 13:21 |
| sam_sam | yes | 13:22 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, above message | 13:22 |
| ceil420 | nooneelse, prolly in gconf-editor | 13:22 |
| tavi | hy | 13:22 |
| sam_sam | i let it searchj the drivers automatically | 13:22 |
| nooneelse | ceil420: there's no parameter called titlebar of something in there | 13:22 |
| sam_sam | search* | 13:22 |
| Peddy | _nano_, OK. when you uninstall NM, it;'ll delete that file, so you might want to make a backup if you don't want to manually edit it again. | 13:22 |
| ceil420 | sam_sam, dunno then, sorry :x good luck, i gotta go to work | 13:22 |
| sam_sam | ty :) | 13:22 |
| tavi | i need something like sistem -administration -network tools | 13:22 |
| Peddy | _nano_, for the gateway, you need to do 'route add default gw 192.168.x.x' | 13:22 |
| nooneelse | ceil420: i've searched before you tell | 13:22 |
| ceil420 | nooneelse, well GNOME's a PITA, so best of luck ;x i recently had difficulties with another part of it | 13:22 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, is there a file where i can put all this ? | 13:23 |
| * ceil420 works | 13:23 | |
| Peddy | _nano_, then you should be able to ping the outside world. | 13:23 |
| ceil420 | ☮+♥ | 13:23 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Restart after unistall is done? | 13:23 |
| tavi | but more complicated | 13:23 |
| Peddy | _nano_, we'll save these commands so they're executed at bootup later. | 13:23 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, yep. | 13:23 |
| Shasirox | ok | 13:23 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, ok i've backed it up | 13:23 |
| quantum | windows xp pro client can't contact domain | 13:23 |
| Peddy | _nano_, great. | 13:23 |
| sam_sam | TY all for ur time :) good day all | 13:24 |
| Peddy | _nano_, do the 'route add' thing. Can you ping ubuntu.com? :) | 13:24 |
| tavi | i need something like sistem -administration -network tools | 13:24 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, yes it's working :) | 13:24 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, i meant by routed add thingy | 13:24 |
| Peddy | _nano_, great. Almost there. | 13:24 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Should i try to start the comp without installing the drivers? | 13:24 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, oh, I thought you reinstalled them. You need to install them again, then try rebooting. EnvyNG should detect which ones work with your card. | 13:25 |
| Peddy | _nano_, now, it's time to configure everything to be run at startup. | 13:25 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Ok, i will | 13:25 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, i'm all set | 13:25 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, for the next step i mean | 13:26 |
| Peddy | _nano_, firstly, you can delete network-manager and network-manager-gnome | 13:26 |
| Peddy | I mean, uninstall | 13:26 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, aptitude remove? | 13:26 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, ok | 13:26 |
| Peddy | sudo apt-get remove network-manager | 13:26 |
| Peddy | _nano_, I think ...-gnome will be uninstalled as well, it relies on the first one. | 13:26 |
| tavi | i need something like sistem -administration -network tools | 13:26 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, yeah 2 packages removed | 13:27 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: It wont install it... | 13:27 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, what happens? | 13:27 |
| Peddy | _nano_, OK. do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 13:27 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, it's saying ignoring interface eth0=eth0 | 13:28 |
| Peddy | That's OK | 13:28 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, now what? | 13:28 |
| Peddy | _nano_, then, restore the backup of /etc/resolv.conf, if its been deleted. | 13:28 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: I click to install it and the option fore what drive i should use comes up, theres only one option. I pick that one and it "installs" and it sais Faild to fetch some things on internet... | 13:29 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, restored | 13:29 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, quit envy, and type 'ifconfig' please | 13:29 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, (the network went down when I did the networking restart thing) | 13:29 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Ok | 13:29 |
| Peddy | _nano_, do 'sudo nano /etc/rc.local' | 13:29 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Done | 13:30 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, did, nothing's there except exit 0 | 13:30 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, I mean apart from comments | 13:30 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: i have internet to the comp... | 13:30 |
| Boohbah | nano: as it should be. you will add to it | 13:30 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, try doing 'ping ubuntu.com' please. | 13:30 |
| _nano_ | Boohbah, ok | 13:30 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: unknown host.... | 13:31 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, OK, hold on 1 second | 13:31 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: ok :) | 13:31 |
| Linaxys | hey, in my init.d script to start a q3 server, I must "chdir" to the server's directory so it can load everything it needs, would I have to chdir back into the init.d director once I've launched the server ? | 13:31 |
| Peddy | _nano_, before exit 0, add 'ifconfig eth0 down /n dhclient -r eth0 /n ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.x.x netmask 255.255.255.0 up /n route add default gw 192.168.x.x' | 13:32 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, ok | 13:32 |
| Peddy | replace x.x with the appropriate things, the first set of Xs are for your static IP, the second is the routers address. | 13:32 |
| Boohbah | tavi: what sort of system -administration -network tools are you looking for? | 13:32 |
| noon32 | why is the option of formatting a logical partition with NTFS grayed out in gparted? | 13:33 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, do you have any other machines on your LAN? Do you know their IPs? | 13:33 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, ok done | 13:33 |
| Peddy | _nano_, try doing 'sudo /etc/rc.local'. Is your internet working now? | 13:34 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: I can look it up :) | 13:34 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: W8 | 13:34 |
| J_Litewski | what's the battery applet called? I need to file a bug report about it | 13:34 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, yes!! its working :) | 13:34 |
| tavi | Boohbah: more complicated that that | 13:34 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, does that mean it's enabled at boot ? | 13:34 |
| Peddy | _nano_, great :) try rebooting | 13:34 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, ok | 13:34 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: 192.168.1.43 its the comp im using right now :) | 13:34 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, do 'ping 192.168.1.43' | 13:35 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: It's on wired internet | 13:35 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, OK. Still, do it. Does it say anything? | 13:36 |
| vigo | !gparted | noon32 | 13:36 |
| ubottu | noon32: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 13:36 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: It sais unreachable... -.- | 13:36 |
| noon32 | vigo: helpful comment! [/sarcasm] | 13:36 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, do you know if you use DHCP or static IPs? | 13:36 |
| Boohbah | tavi: please enlighten me | 13:36 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: protection? a code? | 13:37 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, yes its working at boot :) , now the nameservers .. someway to get it configured automatically ? | 13:37 |
| vigo | noon32: Also the MAN pages explain that as well as much data on the Forums and the Official Documentation sections. | 13:37 |
| Peddy | _nano_, the nameservers (DNS) aren't working? | 13:37 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: I have a open connecting, no codes or anyting like that :) | 13:37 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, OK... do 'dhclient eth0' please. | 13:37 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, they are ..just that if network manager was able to automatically detect it | 13:38 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, anyways for now it's working so thanks a lot :) | 13:38 |
| noon32 | vigo: no, they don't. | 13:38 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, really appreciate your time and help :) | 13:38 |
| Peddy | _nano_, you could change /etc/resolv.conf to the name of your routers IP | 13:38 |
| vigo | noon32: Please hold, I have them on a backup,,,, | 13:38 |
| Peddy | _nano_, you're welcome :) | 13:38 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, ok | 13:38 |
| _nano_ | Peddy, thanks again | 13:38 |
| Peddy | _nano_, NM was only detecting the router's IP. | 13:38 |
| Peddy | OK you're welcome, have a good night (or day) | 13:39 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: That wored :) | 13:39 |
| Shasirox | i can ping to my Router to... | 13:39 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, the internet works now? Try the Envy thing again. | 13:39 |

| Peddy | No worries XD it just seemed funny, you seemed a little frightened :) | 13:43 |

| Peddy | Shasirox, good. Reboot. I don't think it's going to work, though | 13:44 |
| Peddy | -crosses fingers- | 13:44 |
| tavi | Boohbah: i wanna a tool for network more complicated that that from sistem administration network tools | 13:44 |
| vigo | noon32: Yes, I lead you to those so that you might understand the GParted utility better, second link about middle page sorta explains that, I can get a bit more precise on that cause though,,,, | 13:44 |
| Peddy | tavi, what exactly do you want to accomplish? | 13:45 |

| jacquesdupontd | any news about an ati drivers for old card that would be able to have fxglgears drivers on jaunty ? | 13:46 |
| toxin | well HD4850 works | 13:47 |
| jacquesdupontd | yeah that's why i'm talking about old cards | 13:47 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, ugh. Basically, the drivers from AMD don't support the version of X server Jaunty uses. | 13:47 |
| jacquesdupontd | it's an known issue | 13:47 |
| jacquesdupontd | yep Peddy that's it | 13:47 |
| ZAKhan | I am trying to connect samba with AD, after successfully running KINIT and NET ADS JOIN , all windows shares are not accessible by windows clients, can anyone help me out here? | 13:48 |
| Shasirox | Peddy: Ok... | 13:48 |
| toxin | What version in Jaunty? | 13:48 |
| vigo | noon32: Section (3), near the bottom: 3) NTFS tools - The major issue is that NTFS partitions run best when created with Windows partition tools (diskpart), and (usually) when created with Windows formatting tools (format). Linux utilities for dealing with NTFS file systems are incredibly flexible, clever, and useless | 13:48 |
| Peddy | 1.6.x | 13:48 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, you could try an earlier version of Ubuntu, such as 8.10. It should work out of the box. | 13:48 |

| toxin | i was downloading 880kt/s | 13:49 |
| toxin | D | 13:49 |
| Peddy | Ubuntu isn't actually at fault here, it's an issue of AMD not supplying legacy drivers for the latest X server (which is the Graphical User Environment, essentially) | 13:49 |
| Shasirox | I can reinstall Ubuntu, but i want it to run without that... | 13:49 |

| toxin | guys my pc speaker wont shutdown its keeping annoying sound | 13:51 |
| Peddy | Shasirox, oh, right! I actually don't think there's any way to do that. Installing an older version of X server would cause incompatibility with a whole bunch of programs. There was quite an uproar about this very same issue a while back. | 13:51 |
| JohnCorbeau | toxin: hello there, still encountering a few problems toxin? | 13:51 |

| toxin | so the problem is that pc speaker is still working eaven it is in Blacklist | 13:57 |
| kmosh | ikonia, I want to but a netbook and i love using compiz,so how will i know which netbooks support it?can you tell me of any you may know? | 13:57 |
| ikonia | kmosh: look at the video card support for compiz with the xserver | 13:58 |
| budtoka | ikonia>so do u no wot the problem is | 13:58 |
| ikonia | budtoka: I'm sorry to say I do | 13:58 |
| budtoka | <ikonia>is there away to sort it | 13:59 |
| ikonia | budtoka: you're using a Silicon Intergrated System (SIS) video card, these have very very bad support in the Xorg xserver, and even worse 3d support, | 13:59 |
| ikonia | !sis | 13:59 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sis | 13:59 |
| toxin | so the problem is that pc speaker is still working eaven it is in Blacklist | 13:59 |
| BromaxSux | which version of php is going to be in karmic? | 13:59 |
| Trijntje | toxin: did you reboot after blacklisting? | 13:59 |
| budtoka | <ikonia> so i cant use it or i can | 13:59 |
| ikonia | budtoka: there are specific Xorg configurations for the SIS video card drivers but to even have a chance of it working you have to do a fair bit of research | 13:59 |
| toxin | Yes | 13:59 |
| toxin | i did | 13:59 |
| caseyd | ok if I want to set a ntfs partition in fstab where everyone can full read/write it... anyone know the syntax? | 13:59 |
| JohannesSM64 | when installing ubuntu, i never got to configure a root password. when i type su in the terminal, it asks for a password i don't have. sudo su works, however. what's the sense of this? | 13:59 |
| ikonia | budtoka: 9 times out of 10 it never works | 13:59 |
| ikonia | !usod | JohannesSM64 | 13:59 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about usod | 13:59 |
| ikonia | !sudo | JohannesSM64 | 14:00 |
| ubottu | JohannesSM64: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 14:00 |
| Trijntje | toxin: can you paste the line you put in? | 14:00 |
| ikonia | !root | JohannesSM64 | 14:00 |
| ubottu | JohannesSM64: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 14:00 |
| budtoka | <ikonia>ok so just get a new card then yer | 14:00 |
| toxin | cant remember how i see that blacklist thing | 14:00 |
| grawity | caseyd: Use these options: auto,fmask=0111,dmask=0,utf8,uid=0,gid=0 | 14:00 |
| JohannesSM64 | i know how it works | 14:00 |
| ikonia | budtoka: a better supported card is always going to be a better option | 14:00 |
| caseyd | thanks =) | 14:00 |
| tOli | how to makesure that the partition is mounted when i start the computer | 14:00 |
| ikonia | JohannesSM64: ok - so why are you asking why you didn't get a chance to set a root password | 14:00 |
| ikonia | JohannesSM64: if you know how it works - why ask ? | 14:00 |
| budtoka | <ikonia>ok thank's for your help | 14:00 |
| ikonia | budtoka: I'm sorry it's not more positive | 14:01 |
| JohannesSM64 | because i find it strange that the su command is broken in ubuntu | 14:01 |
| JohannesSM64 | because you never set a root password | 14:01 |
| Trijntje | toxin: its in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 14:01 |
| ikonia | JohannesSM64: it's not broken | 14:01 |
| ikonia | JohannesSM64: you can't su as you don't set a root password so it's encypted and you don't know it | 14:01 |
| budtoka | <ikonia>no it is ok i though it would be the case any way | 14:01 |
| JohannesSM64 | i can, however, become root with my USER password | 14:02 |
| ikonia | JohannesSM64: of course | 14:02 |
| JohannesSM64 | it defies all logic | 14:02 |
| dragonrigs | tank | 14:02 |

| Guest20265 | could u help me make my mp3 player workin with ubuntu? Rythmbox doesn't recognize it | 14:03 |
| Trijntje | toxin: if you put my name in your reply and say it all in one line, its easier to follow | 14:03 |
| tOli | how to makesure that the partition is mounted when i start the computer | 14:03 |
| JohannesSM64 | in most distros, you set a root password when installing, and you need that root password to become root. in ubuntu, you never set a root password in the installation, making the su command useless by itself, but you can become root if you have the password for a REGULAR user | 14:03 |
| toxin | <Trijntje> ok so what i shuold to add to Blacklist.conf | 14:03 |
| JohannesSM64 | how does that make any sense? | 14:03 |
| Trijntje | toxin: where did you put it first? you should remove it in case it causes weird errors | 14:04 |
| Trijntje | toxin: add the line blacklist pcspkr to the end of that file | 14:04 |

| Boohbah | !hi | 14:14 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 14:14 |
| danbhfive | adrenalink: well, you would learn something about gnu/linux in general, but I just don't know anything about the bin you ran. It could do anything. Maybe you just need to put the executable in /usr/bin instead of /usr? I don't really know. | 14:14 |
| maoshe | anybody here, that knows how to configure tightvncserver on ubuntu server 9.04? | 14:15 |
| Jimmio | adrenalink: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-jre | 14:15 |
| maoshe | i tried already some other vnc clients, but vnc is my favourite | 14:16 |
| maoshe | x11vnc is too slow... | 14:16 |
| maoshe | any idea? | 14:17 |
| MindVirus1 | I recently got a new repository for Firefox and I got 3.5. So I removed the repository and now I want to revert back to 3.0. However, removing firefox-3.5 also removes the firefox meta-package. | 14:17 |
| MindVirus1 | Any suggestions? | 14:17 |
| Jimmio | MindVirus1: That doesn't work. Boohbah: That doesn't work. :S | 14:17 |
| danbhfive | MindVirus1: why is removing the meta package bad? | 14:17 |
| MindVirus1 | danbhfive: I want to get Firefox upgrades from the main repo. | 14:18 |
| adante | hi | 14:18 |
| danbhfive | MindVirus1: can't you just reinstall the meta after the fact? | 14:18 |
| adante | with my media players, is there a way to make vlc only start a single instance? | 14:18 |
| Cptnodegard | from a pendirve linux perspective (or live perspective), any point in scrapping ubuntu 8.04 for 9.04 when all I need it for is troubleshooting and such tools? | 14:18 |
| Boohbah | Jimmio: what is the command? | 14:18 |
| adante | also is there any way i can access the shares mounted by whatever-it-is-gnome-uses-for-accessing-smb-shares from command line? | 14:18 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: uninstall and re-install fireefox | 14:19 |
| MindVirus1 | ikonia: that makes firefox manually selected. | 14:19 |
| Jimmio | Boohbah: export projectTitle=`gdialog --title "Enter Project Title" --inputbox "Enter Project Title"` | 14:19 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: yes, that's right | 14:19 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: but you can re-install the meta package from the main repo | 14:19 |
| MindVirus1 | Hmm. Why not? | 14:20 |

| og01 | Hi i want to use mdadm + dm-crypt + lvm on a storage device, in what order does linux setup the 3? should i crypt each of the raid drives before making a raid array our of them or should i create the array and crypt it after | 14:20 |
| Jimmio | ikonia: If you remove firefox, you'll never ever get it working properly again, Trust me.. O.O | 14:20 |
| MindVirus1 | ikonia: only thing: I'd remove firefox-gnome-support. | 14:20 |
| og01 | ? | 14:20 |
| MindVirus1 | ikonia: I for sure don't want that as manually installed. | 14:20 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: why - what different does it make if you're just going to re-install it | 14:21 |
| Boohbah | Jimmio: so, that command outputs nothing to STDOUT so the variable is set to nothing as expected. Did you expect something different? | 14:21 |
| ikonia | Jimmio: I've done it many times when testing | 14:21 |
| danbhfive | MindVirus1: maybe you could just use tasksel to reinstall. I don't think that marks things as manual | 14:21 |
| Jimmio | Boohbah: Ohh, it outputs to stderr doesn't it? x.x | 14:21 |
| MindVirus1 | ikonia: manually installed means that it won't be removed with autoremove if it's not a dep. | 14:21 |
| megra | og01, lvm then madmd then dmcypt | 14:21 |
| Guest20265 | ubottu:there is no privete message from u | 14:21 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: it will never be removed - it's a meta package | 14:21 |
| xrfang | generally speaking, how well is 64bit supported? I plan to install ubuntu on a new PC, but wondering if I shall install 32bit or 64bit... | 14:21 |
| Tonisius | now, I looked up the whole br0, and no such device, and I do have bridge-utils installed, any idea what else could be causing the whole error of SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device | 14:21 |
| ikonia | xrfang: very well | 14:22 |
| xrfang | especially things like wine | 14:22 |
| MindVirus1 | ikonia: firefox-gnome-support? | 14:22 |
| Tonisius | how do I go about setting up my network bridge for my KVM? | 14:22 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: what about it | 14:22 |
| Tonisius | I have bridge-utils | 14:22 |
| xrfang | ikonia: does wine have a 64bit version? | 14:22 |
| ikonia | xrfang: dont think so | 14:22 |
| MindVirus1 | ikonia: I would actually like firefox to be manually installed but not firefox-gnome-support. | 14:22 |
| og01 | megra: i expected lvm to be last! how can i ensure that everything is ercerated in order | 14:22 |
| og01 | megra: my ? key doesnt work :) | 14:23 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: what does it matter - you've messed around with the repos and dependencies, now this is how you'll need to deal with it, or install something that depends on firefox | 14:23 |
| xrfang | ok, so, can we run 32 bit software (not only wine) on a 64bit ubuntu? | 14:23 |
| ikonia | xrfang: some software yes | 14:23 |
| MindVirus1 | ikonia: is there any way to install without setting manually installed? | 14:23 |
| Jimmio | xrfang: ia32 libs. Search aptitude xP | 14:23 |
| _eG1k | hello, why poweroff button dont work without GDM ? | 14:23 |
| xrfang | ok, thanks ikonia, | 14:23 |
| xrfang | ? | 14:23 |
| ikonia | MindVirus1: no, unless something needs it as a dependency | 14:23 |
| og01 | I was planing on having a raid array setup, encrypting it, then adding it to a lv so that i could add tfurther drives if nesseary | 14:23 |
| megra | og01, lvm is first if you want to setup a soft-raid, then you create you partition and tell lvm to encrypt it | 14:23 |
| xrfang | Jimmio: that's for wine? or generally (32bit software on 64bit linux)? | 14:24 |
| Jimmio | xrfang: generally. | 14:24 |
| xrfang | tks, I will earch for that | 14:24 |
| og01 | megra so i add all the devices to lvm before they are raided or encrpted? | 14:24 |
| og01 | the encryption is handled by lvm? | 14:25 |

| Araneidae | Can't write to /dev/dsp, reports "device or resource busy", but `lsof /dev/dsp` reports nothing | 14:25 |
| xrfang | another question, by installing 64 bit linux, can I expect a noticeable performance improvement? | 14:26 |
| ikonia | xrfang: no | 14:26 |
| ikonia | xrfang: the average home user won't see a difference | 14:27 |
| xrfang | ikonia: so it does not really make sense, | 14:27 |
| og01 | xrfang: but its required for the extra address space (ie for loadsa ram) | 14:27 |
| xrfang | I suppose I will not have more than 4G memory install on a desktop... | 14:27 |
| ikonia | xrfang: sure it does | 14:27 |
| xrfang | og01: that's what I am thinking | 14:27 |
| xrfang | why ? | 14:27 |
| og01 | xrfang: plus larger numbers are easier to crunch | 14:27 |
| xrfang | what is the benefit of 64bit, if not for extended capacity (address space)? | 14:28 |
| ikonia | xrfang: for the average home user at this time - very little | 14:28 |
| xrfang | I hope it is faster, but you say no...? | 14:28 |
| steve_i | I need some help with a problem that has arisen with compiz /emerald on 8.04. The window borders are now missing. Can anyone tell me where to get help on this? | 14:28 |

| ikonia | steve_i: are you using an nvidia video card ? | 14:28 |
| og01 | xrfang: i *think* | 14:29 |

| knoppix | id like to move my sda6 / partition to sdb2 - how to do that? | 14:40 |
| og01 | knoppix: you cant to copy the data? | 14:41 |
| og01 | knoppix: *you want to copy? | 14:41 |
| linduxed | i think ive managed to lock myself out with ecryptfs. i changed the login password to "bar" when it was "foo" (just an example) and naturally the ecryptfs password didnt update. | 14:41 |
| linduxed | so next boot i went to a failsafe terminal, did a ecryptfs-mount-private and entered "foo". After succesful mount i did an ecryptfs-wrap-passphrase, typed "foo" then "bar" | 14:41 |
| linduxed | this boot however it still doesnt log in, and in failsafe neither the "foo" or the "bar" pass works for mount-private | 14:41 |
| FloodBot2 | linduxed: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:41 |
| og01 | knoppix: dd if=/dev/sda6 of=/dev/sdb2 | 14:41 |
| knoppix | og01: have i simply to copy all the data using copy? not more? | 14:42 |
| og01 | knoppix: make sure you understand before perfoming that command! | 14:42 |
| knoppix | og01: ah dthx :) | 14:42 |
| thedancingdeer | how can i see size of a file on cli? | 14:42 |
| ipazione | ohi ?? is there anybody that help me? | 14:42 |
| og01 | knoppix: partitions should be identical in size! | 14:42 |
| B00 | google is your friend :D | 14:42 |
| og01 | knoppix: or destination bigger (either way) | 14:42 |
| linduxed | ipazione: if you state your problem... | 14:42 |
| przemo_one | knoppix: use gparted and partimage (systemrescuecd recommended) | 14:42 |
| knoppix | og01: of course | 14:42 |
| knoppix | przemo_one: gparted is running now. whats about partimage? | 14:43 |
| og01 | knoppix: man dd first | 14:43 |
| og01 | knoppix: make sure this is what your trying to acheive | 14:43 |
| og01 | knoppix: i dont want to be responsible for destroying your data | 14:43 |
| knoppix | og01: while copying data i cannot lose data? | 14:43 |
| rincon | how do i recover grub after a windows instalation in a dual boot system? | 14:44 |
| og01 | knoppix: you would be overwritting /dev/sdb2 | 14:44 |
| knoppix | i mean: i could simply copy all the data using cp, then change the fstab and then i could rm the old data | 14:44 |
| og01 | knoppix: if your happy with that go ahead and try | 14:44 |
| knoppix | og01: sdb2 is definitly emtpy | 14:44 |
| og01 | knoppix: dd would creat a perfect copy of the data | 14:45 |
| og01 | knoppix: cp would not | 14:45 |
| ipazione | when i push capture on kino under appear 'loading dv' and after 10 sec kino stop my camcorders | 14:45 |
| przemo_one | knoppix: first make a copy of partition using partimage. then restore it to the second drive. if partiton size is different than use gparteds "check" option to correct | 14:45 |
| guntbert | thedancingdeer: ls -l | 14:45 |
| knoppix | cp changes things last "last modification-time", doesnt it? | 14:45 |
| knoppix | przemo_one: whats wrong with the dd command? | 14:45 |
| og01 | knoppix: and files would be reentered into the partition dile at a time | 14:45 |
| og01 | knoppix: partimage would be faster | 14:45 |
| og01 | knoppix: but you would have to create the image somewhere and then restore it | 14:46 |
| guntbert | thedancingdeer: or try ls -lh (its a bit more "friendly") | 14:46 |
| og01 | knoppix: partimage does some cleaverness to make the image smaller | 14:46 |
| knoppix | i should save a partition into a file? | 14:46 |
| og01 | knoppix: but dd would doa byte for byte copy | 14:46 |
| przemo_one | knoppix as far as i know dd command will dump entire surface without checking what is the file system or where the partiton ends. i know my way and it's tested | 14:46 |
| knoppix | przemo_one: og01: ah, ok | 14:47 |
| og01 | knoppix: dd works perfectly | 14:47 |
| linduxed | hmm, i must have been flood-squelched... | 14:47 |
| og01 | knoppix: dd might take all date | 14:47 |
| knoppix | well, the time i would invest into reading the partimage manpage, i could simply using dd :) | 14:47 |

| og01 | knoppix: dont want to guess how long though | 14:48 |
| knoppix | og01: hm kay :P | 14:48 |
| og01 | knoppix: it would be a litteral byte by byte copy | 14:48 |
| thedancingdeer | guntbert: thanks! :) | 14:49 |

| lollan | Hi, I have a dell xps M1530, I am reinstalling ubuntu because of some crap i did ^^ and was wondering if the 64 version would run on my laptop, somebody has any info about 64bits ? | 15:00 |
| B00 | why uninstall it? | 15:01 |
| B00 | in windows 7 partition you should delete the partition set on that hdd | 15:01 |
| Brolleus | me? | 15:01 |
| lollan | Brolleus, just reinstall on the top of it | 15:01 |
| B00 | yes | 15:01 |
| og01 | Brolleus: I agree no need to uninstall | 15:01 |
| linduxed | Guest73028: avidemux i think should work | 15:01 |

| mnaines | lollan: I have not seen a laptop that can run 64-bit software | 15:02 |
| og01 | Brolleus: not likely | 15:02 |
| B00 | make sure windows 7 is the hd0 | 15:02 |
| B00 | ubunto hd1 | 15:02 |
| B00 | and so forth | 15:02 |
| og01 | Brolleus: but you could boot up livecd and use fdisk to delete the paartitions | 15:02 |
| Brolleus | Vista is hd0 | 15:02 |
| NielsE | I'm developing something and I want to know if the package python-notify is installed as default in the latest ubuntu | 15:02 |

| Brolleus | I have all my movies and musik on the vista partition... Thats the real problem-.- | 15:03 |
| NAkeidosan | it's just another windows vista, except even more bloated | 15:03 |
| B00 | can you boot up from windows 7 cd/dvd? | 15:03 |
| Brolleus | B00: Windows 7 doesnt have a live version... :P | 15:04 |
| Brolleus | live cd version* | 15:04 |
| B00 | never triedi t but on XP you would delete the ubunto partition then select that hdd as the XP | 15:04 |
| og01 | Brolleus: also you can on vista installer | 15:04 |
| og01 | Brolleus: i would expect you could with win7 | 15:05 |

| g0tcha | danbhfive1, i have 7.10 running on the one im facing problems with.. how can i fix it? | 15:05 |
| og01 | Brolleus: if it really concerns you use fdisk from ubuntu cd | 15:05 |
| * SimulianT aw lakt | 15:05 | |
| B00 | then just delete that partition then select hd3 for windows install | 15:05 |
| Brolleus | og01: Yes, i think so to... but i can boot win7 | 15:05 |
| danbhfive1 | g0tcha: use the info here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades#7.10%20to%208.04%20(Gutsy%20to%20Hardy) | 15:06 |
| og01 | anybody want to take a guess on how long dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/sdb bs=1M would take on a 750GB drive? | 15:06 |
| B00 | within vista there should be options to select boot options on boot | 15:06 |
| NAkeidosan | in msconfig ;>_> | 15:06 |
| NAkeidosan | or boot.ini | 15:06 |
| B00 | it should show you a list of O$ in the boot loader | 15:06 |
| Brolleus | Vista doesnt start... Partition something and Windows dies... -.- | 15:07 |
| NAkeidosan | B00; it shows you an list of OS's in the bootloader if the bootloader is setup correctly | 15:07 |
| B00 | reinstall vista without formatting! | 15:07 |

| codazoda | mnaines: Mines a laptop, so I always suspend instead of shutting it off. Boots much faster that way. I was able to fix this under 8.10. | 15:38 |
| mnaines | codazoda: Does hibernate mode do that to you? | 15:38 |
| aaron11 | hi | 15:38 |
| sentix | NielsE: For Kubuntu 9.04 - import pynotify == ImportError: No module named pynotify | 15:38 |
| codazoda | mnaines: Yup, it fails after hibernate also. | 15:38 |
| Jork | hellou. DOes enybody know hot to mount mdf file in ubuntu? thnx | 15:38 |
| codazoda | I've created the file /etc/pm/config.d/atheros with the line "SUSPEND_MODULES=ath_pci". This automatically fixed the problem under 8.10 but doesn't seem to work under 9.04. | 15:38 |
| NielsE | sentix: ah too bad | 15:38 |
| mnaines | codazoda: I don't know how to make the process automatic | 15:39 |
| codazoda | mnaines: What version of ubuntu? | 15:39 |
| NielsE | sentix: then I'll have to create some sort of warning that you need the package | 15:39 |
| NielsE | sentix: thanks for checking :-) | 15:39 |
| sentix | NielsE: Could always try wrapping the import with a try catch then throwing a console/messagebox alerty telling the user to.... heh your 2 steps ahead of me | 15:39 |
| mnaines | codazoda: Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop Edition | 15:39 |
| Hydrid | i have an ati 3850 hd 512mb agp and i have installed the proprietary drivers.When i play media files .avi .mpg .mkv etc with totem or vlc the movies are going very slow and if eventually they unstack when i go to full screen (24" screen) there they completely stack and or slow motion and sound comes before the frame! Can somebody help? | 15:40 |
| codazoda | mnaines: I wrote up a simple wiki on how to do it under 8.10, maybe it will work for you (maybe not). http://www.joeldare.com/wiki/linux:netgear_wpn511_fails_after_sleep | 15:40 |
| Hydrid | How can i change my hdisk name from disk 2 --> disk2 | 15:41 |
| Hydrid | ? | 15:41 |
| intok | Hydrid tried disabling compiz? | 15:41 |
| sentix | Hybrid: Probably an over kill but I use gparted for managing my harddrives | 15:41 |
| Hydrid | intok: i dont have copmiz | 15:41 |
| mnaines | codazoda: My laptop uses an ExpressCard/54 and I use the internal wifi, which is the Intel 3945 abg adapter | 15:42 |
| Hydrid | sentix: what? | 15:42 |
| codazoda | If you select a sleep system in /etc/pm/config.d/00sleep_module will all 3 options run things in /etc/pm/config.d/? | 15:42 |
| miguelonnnn | quien eres? | 15:42 |
| miguelonnnn | sorry | 15:42 |
| codazoda | mnaines: If you find out the driver its using, you should be able to stop that driver when the machine goes to sleep and start it when it starts back up. All automatically. | 15:42 |
| sentix | Hydrid: "How can i change my hdisk name from disk 2 --> disk2" - gparted is a GUI for managing/modifying harddrive partitions | 15:43 |
| Hydrid | sentix: ok thanks | 15:43 |
| codazoda | My system takes 30 seconds to sleep under 9.04 but only 5 seconds to sleep under 8.10 any idea why? | 15:43 |
| RanyAlbeg | Hi guys. i need to know what file is being executed when i shut down the system | 15:43 |
| Jork | hellou. DOes enybody know hot to mount mdf file in ubuntu? thnx | 15:43 |
| ikonia | RanyAlbeg: what do you mean ? | 15:43 |
| ikonia | RanyAlbeg: what the shutdown command is or the shutdown process | 15:44 |
| sentix | RanyAlbeg: Like the settings for run levels? | 15:44 |
| RanyAlbeg | I know that .profile is being executed when the system starts | 15:44 |
| aaron11 | helooooo | 15:44 |
| aaron11 | is anyone here | 15:44 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: No, .profile is executed when you login to the console. | 15:44 |
| andisun | hio | 15:45 |
| RanyAlbeg | i thought there might be a file that is being executed when i shut down my computer | 15:45 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: i think its .bashrc no? | 15:45 |
| ikonia | RanyAlbeg: /sbin/shutdown is the shutdown command, however init will step down through the run levels scripts | 15:45 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: And .bashrc is exec'd every time you open a shell (Terminal or the console). | 15:45 |
| sentix | RanyAlbeg: There is the runlevel settings in /etc/rc#.d/ | 15:45 |

| sentix | Hydrid: console partition tools can be entertaining | 15:48 |
| RanyAlbeg | i need to find the location to execute it from | 15:48 |
| ikonia | lucas_: because it's unstable and you'll need a certain level of experience to get the most out of it, which if you have to ask suggests you don't have | 15:48 |
| mnaines | tp_: I haven't found any yet | 15:48 |
| Hydrid | sentix: ok thanks i will read and try hope to manage | 15:48 |

| regis | ftab, btw how's the media repository called | 15:55 |
| regis | ftab, thanks for pointing me to vlc | 15:55 |
| ftab | regis: media repository ? | 15:55 |
| ikonia | oberdada: if you can't see the HP bios screen - it's nothing to do with ubuntu, it's a hardware problem | 15:55 |
| sentix | ikonia: With 9.04 I had to nurse it along because the installer tried to take on FS features that don't work with ext2 ( ext_attrs and I believe resizable_inodes) just seemed weird to have them crop up | 15:56 |
| sentix | ikonia: tack not take | 15:56 |
| oberdada | the first few times i urned it on, it did show the bios screen. and tried to boot ubuntu | 15:56 |

| regis | mp3 not in gstremer but in ffmpeg based players such as vlc or mplayer | 15:56 |
| oberdada | one of those times it gave me a screen dump saying at the end : kernel panic. attempting to kill init | 15:56 |
| ftab | regis: I fouind this http://movieconvert.sourceforge.net/ | 15:56 |
| ftab | which uses mplayer, but the project is no longer supported | 15:57 |
| regis | ftab, thanks is it integrated in ubuntu? | 15:57 |
| regis | ah ok | 15:57 |
| oberdada | the other time, it showed the ubuntu logo upon bootup with the process bar, it froze right there | 15:57 |
| sentix | ikonia: Yeah, I was being ultra paranoid about squeezing out as much life from the SSD so I went with a non-journalled FS | 15:57 |
| regis | ftab, there is also handbrake but it's not in ubuntu | 15:57 |
| ftab | regis: I am not sure but you should be able to compile that. | 15:57 |
| oberdada | and now, it does not show the bios screen | 15:57 |
| ikonia | sentix: not tried ext2 personally with it. | 15:57 |
| regis | ftab, ok | 15:58 |
| ikonia | oberdada: then you have a hardware problem | 15:58 |
| sentix | oberdada: It sounds like your laptop might have died | 15:58 |
| ftab | regis: if a software is written for linux then it is for ubuntu | 15:58 |

| grawity | Guest45107: Boot into recovery mode, reset the root password? | 16:13 |
| ikonia | Guest45107: what happened to break it | 16:13 |
| Blacksimon | hm, look at your logs, see if your firewall is what is denying the traffic | 16:13 |
| sentix | Guest45107: Google for booting your machine into single user mode and change your root password | 16:13 |
| ikonia | Guest45107: you know you use your user's password for sudo | 16:13 |
| marco | I have no sound in my computer... can someone help??? | 16:13 |
| ftab | marco: which sound card are you using? | 16:13 |
| Guest45107 | GuidMorrow: I have 2 ram sticks of 256 each, and 1 is refurbished, I am using amd turion 1.4 ghz processor | 16:13 |
| grawity | sentix: In Ubuntu that's called "recovery mode", and is in grub menu already. | 16:13 |
| ftab | marco > and was that working before? | 16:13 |
| Dartagan | I'm trying to connect to my wireless network. It's a WEP 40/129 bit Key, but when I type in the correct pass the "Connect" button in the lower right hand corner is greyed out | 16:14 |
| regis | ftab, I open firefox,I go on the M6 replay website that permit you to view again tv shows,when you select a movie it's in flash but flash uses rtmp as the underlying protocol | 16:14 |
| Dartagan | Sorry for the repost hoping for a reply of some kind | 16:14 |
| Guest45107 | grawity: I tried to boot in recovery mode but its asking for old password | 16:14 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Guest45107: you can also run a live CD to backup your data onto a USB flash drive | 16:14 |
| ftab | regis: ok and? | 16:14 |
| grawity | Guest45107: Ah,hmm. | 16:14 |
| sentix | grawity: its still single user mode regardless of what any distro brands it as | 16:14 |
| ikonia | Guest45107: that's what happens when you set a root password | 16:14 |
| ikonia | Guest45107: you'll need to boot from a cd, mount your root file system and remove the password from /etc/shadow | 16:14 |
| regis | ftab, I've got some tools that can read or dump rtmp | 16:14 |
| grawity | sentix: I know - but you don't need to google to find your boot menu, no? | 16:14 |
| sonism | Blacksimon: i did. looks like the connection use different port every time it make a new connection... :( | 16:15 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | anyone know how to force https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades Step #5 from 6.06 to 8.04 since its not appearing as stated? | 16:15 |
| grawity | Guest45107: On grub menu, press the 'e' key | 16:15 |
| regis | ftab, the only lacking thing is the real URL of the rtmp streal | 16:15 |
| ftab | from dump you mean download to the local machine regis? | 16:15 |
| grawity | Guest45107: Then choose the 'boot' line and press 'e' again. | 16:15 |
| regis | ftab, yes | 16:15 |
| Guest45107 | ubuntu_606_upgra: the cd rom is not working properly and often gets stuck, usb ports are usb1 and are not compatible with usb2 sticks which I use | 16:15 |
| grawity | Guest45107: And finally, add init=/bin/sh to the end of that line. | 16:15 |
| grawity | Guest45107: Then 'b' to continue booting. | 16:15 |
| regis | s/streal/stream | 16:15 |
| GuidMorrow | Guest45107: upgrading RAM wouldn't hurt it; Jaunty needs at least 512MB for a 32-bit environment, or 1GB for 64-bit | 16:15 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Guest45107: USB2 is backwards compatible with USB1, just slower | 16:15 |
| ftab | regis: so you want to know the exact url for the video which is using the rtmp protocol? | 16:15 |
| Blacksimon | is it within a defined port range? and doesnt your program give you the ability to trust a certain app no matter what ports it asks for? | 16:15 |
| sonism | Blacksimon: i mean the zynga apps | 16:15 |
| regis | ftab, yes | 16:15 |

| ubottu | imduffy15|away, please see my private message | 16:16 |
| Dartagan | any suggestions though? It's sort of an annoying issue | 16:16 |
| ftab | regis: there are many ways to do that, brows the source code, CTRL + U in firefox and find the the embed tag | 16:16 |
| Guest45107 | ubuntu_606_upgra: I tried the performance is damn poor and often data transfer stucks | 16:16 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | syrnux: i wish there is but i haven't found a way on the internet, try to compile from source code using ./configure --prefix=/home/user/folder && make && make install | 16:16 |

| ubottu | The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 16:17 |
| regis | ftab, ok I'll look thanks a lot | 16:17 |
| Guest45107 | mnaines: Sorry spending money on this laptop is not an option | 16:17 |
| ftab | regis: if you send me a link that would really help me understand your problem :-) | 16:18 |
| sentix | Guest45107: In a simular situation I just pulled the harddrive from the laptop, got the appropriate adapter ( IDE -> USB ) and copied what I needed off it... lot easier then doing the laptop version of ship in a bottle | 16:18 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Guest45107: get a live floppy version of linux and copy to the USB flash drive, then md5 the files or the zip to ensure it copied correctly | 16:18 |
| dava--livecd | im wondering wich mode of operation the ubuntu juanty alternate install uses by defualt | 16:18 |
| ftab | regis: I am sorry if I wasn't able to help, some times it happens | 16:18 |
| regis | ftab, you would need a proxy unless you are in france | 16:18 |
| syrnux | ubuntu_606|ikonia ok thanks, that gives me good things to check out | 16:18 |

| sonism | Blacksimon: the application is firefox... the zynga games run from the facebook | 16:19 |
| regis | ftab, because they filter people with the geolocalization of ip | 16:19 |
| regis | ftab, http://www.m6replay.fr/#/emissions/total-wipeout-ca-va-deraper-/1128 | 16:19 |
| ftab | regis: i see. but as for as I understand you might need to write a crawler to extract the rtmp protocol | 16:19 |

| Blacksimon | well normally youll have a connect port and then a couple ports | 16:19 |
| Blacksimon | can you log in to the games? | 16:20 |

| Dartagon | guys how do I force the connection? | 16:21 |

| ftab | because the site is in flash regis | 16:21 |
| regis | ftab, ok | 16:21 |
| ftab | regis, let me see the xml | 16:21 |
| Dartagon | The key is correct I just need to "connect" button to not be greyed (which is ridiculous that it's greyed out at all) | 16:21 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Dartagon: sudo iwconfig essid NAMEOFNETWORK wep KEY | 16:21 |
| sonism | Blacksimon: is that all of them? | 16:22 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Dartagon: you can man iwconfig or iwconfig --help for more details as well | 16:22 |
| Blacksimon | i hope so | 16:22 |
| Dartagon | ubuntu_606_upgra: Ahh try this in terminal? | 16:22 |
| Blacksimon | just to be sure, make it a range of 9336 to 9339 | 16:22 |
| mehdi | hello | 16:22 |
| regis | ftab, would the pastebin of the html code and the xml help? | 16:22 |
| Blacksimon | or if the originals work, keep it that way | 16:22 |
| Chimaera | Hello | 16:22 |
| ftab | sure | 16:22 |

| ubuntu_606_upgra | Dartagon: yes, thanks for the italicise | 16:23 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Dartagon: but its encryption instead of wep | 16:24 |
| regis | ftab, here's the xml: http://www.pastebin.ca/1547215 | 16:24 |

| ftab | which are flv files. | 16:26 |
| Dartagon | ubuntu_606_upgra, Hmmm strange it came out "unknown command "networkname"" | 16:26 |
| regis | ftab, yes they are not the stream | 16:26 |
| regis | ftab, yes they are introductions and adds | 16:26 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Dartagon: you replace your network name with networkname | 16:26 |
| Dartagon | of course | 16:26 |
| ftab | regis: and we are looking for rtmp right? | 16:26 |
| Dartagon | sudo iwconfig essid [network name] wep [encryption code] | 16:27 |
| regis | ftab, I think so...I've heard on the net that the stream is rtmp | 16:27 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | Dartagon: change wep to encryption, but all else looks good (to check try iwconfig --help) | 16:27 |

| IdleOne | PSPdemon: use -d | 16:49 |
| PSPdemon | heh | 16:50 |
| PSPdemon | what would be the line though? | 16:50 |
| ubuntu | :? | 16:50 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | IdleOne: can he do that and specify the folder outside from teh default fonder? | 16:50 |
| IdleOne | PSPdemon: sudo apt-get -d package I believe | 16:50 |
| PSPdemon | i get a few different varrying lines -_- | 16:50 |
| PSPdemon | thanks | 16:50 |
| regis | IdleOne, that's why I asked if there is another one that is easy to use | 16:50 |
| bankix | Hello. | 16:50 |
| ubuntu | ? | 16:50 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | !hi | bankix | 16:50 |
| ubottu | bankix: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 16:50 |
| xmnt | ubuntu_606_upgra, i've already got it (alsa-oss) | 16:50 |
| regis | ftab, the link for compiling is generic | 16:50 |
| IdleOne | regis: you can search in Synaptic package manager | 16:50 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | xmnt: darn, that is my only suggestion i know of | 16:51 |
| regis | IdleOne, I looked in video without success | 16:51 |
| ftab | regis: but explains how to compile, compilation in linux is distro independent | 16:51 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | xmnt: ensure your sound card does not require pulse | 16:51 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | xmnt: pulse being a package | 16:51 |
| ajamison5579 | is this the room to ask about features on upcoming releases mainly 9.10 | 16:51 |
| xmnt | ubuntu_606_upgra, i've tried w/ and w/out pulse and neither works | 16:51 |
| IdleOne | regis: the folks in #ubuntu-studio might know more | 16:51 |
| regis | ftab, but the deps are distro dependant and the errors are sometimes package dependant | 16:51 |
| regis | IdleOne, ok thanks | 16:51 |
| regis | ftab, for the deps it require jam,g++;gcc;nasm | 16:52 |
| guntbert | ajamison5579: that would be #ubuntu+1 | 16:52 |
| bankix | ajamison5579: Not really, this is the support channel. | 16:52 |
| regis | IdleOne, thanks | 16:52 |
| ftab | regis: hmm may be I don't know that then :) | 16:52 |
| ajamison5579 | ok thanks | 16:52 |

| guntbert | !root | Guest40720 | 17:06 |
| ubottu | Guest40720: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:06 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | !tor | regis | 17:07 |
| ubottu | regis: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 17:07 |

| ftab | ikonia, and they share the same repositories ? | 17:09 |
| IdleOne | PSPdemon: yes I know. the command would be apt-get -d install package | 17:10 |
| ikonia | ftab: they are nothing to do with the repositories, dpkg is what installs it and they are but front ends to it | 17:10 |
| guntbert | Guest40720: please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo on that subject | 17:10 |
| IdleOne | PSPdemon: the -d tells apt-get you only want to download the install package | 17:10 |

| bankix | Hi Gabriel. | 17:11 |
| ftab | I would like to know how the ubuntu repositories works | 17:11 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | !hi | gabriel__ | 17:11 |
| ubottu | gabriel__: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 17:11 |
| guntbert | ikonia: why would " empty your shadow file" be necessary/helpful for Guest40720 ? | 17:12 |
| gabriel__ | I have a small proble: I reinstalled grub and I can boot in ubuntu but I can't boot to windows xp, how can I fix this? | 17:12 |
| syntax | Ola | 17:12 |
| ikonia | guntbert: to allow the password for root to be set to null so he can login and set it again | 17:12 |
| syntax | #bage | 17:12 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Either something is wrong with your menu.lst or you did overwrite the windows bootloader. | 17:12 |
| JoeZiehmer | have Xubuntu 9.04 on my iMac and cannot get the color mode to work correctly iMac 500 ati 128 any suggestions it is at 256 color mode | 17:12 |
| bankix | gabriel__: How did you reinstall grub? | 17:13 |
| gabriel__ | Im going to put my pastebin for menu.lst | 17:13 |
| IdleOne | JoeZiehmer: #xubuntu | 17:13 |
| gabriel__ | wait a sec | 17:13 |
| JoeZiehmer | Yes IdleOne? | 17:13 |
| IdleOne | JoeZiehmer: /join #xubuntu and ask | 17:13 |
| gabriel__ | This is my pastebin: http://pastebin.com/d7c0eddbd | 17:13 |
| guntbert | ikonia: I guess for that it would be sufficient to "redisable root" as stated in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#Re-disabling%20your%20root%20account | 17:13 |
| gabriel__ | I reinstalled grub from the live cd | 17:14 |
| ikonia | guntbert: depends on his situation but yes | 17:14 |
| bankix | gabriel__: How did you? Which command? | 17:14 |
| guntbert | ikonia: ok, didn't want to be picky - I supposed there was something I overlooked :-) | 17:14 |
| ikonia | guntbert: not at all, nothing wrong with checking up | 17:15 |
| gabriel__ | grub, find /boot/grub/stage1, root (hd0,1), setup (hd0) | 17:15 |
| guntbert | ikonia: :-) | 17:15 |
| siganderson | I have grub installed on a usb hard disk; in that hard disk there are 3 partitions, 1 boot (sda1), 1 data (sda2), 1 swap (sda5); grub is installed in the mbr but when it tries to start I get grub error 2, any ideas? | 17:15 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Okay. And your windows partition is /dev/sda1? | 17:16 |
| JoshDreamland | there's no program called pause ;_; | 17:16 |
| JoshDreamland | where do I get one? | 17:16 |
| gabriel__ | let me check | 17:16 |
| JoshDreamland | Can't live without the convenience of system("pause") | 17:16 |
| guntbert | JoeZiehmer: #xubuntu might be a better channel for your problem | 17:16 |
| gabriel__ | sda1 is my windows partition | 17:17 |
| gabriel__ | I have the pastebin from my menu.lst: http://pastebin.com/d7c0eddbd | 17:17 |
| bankix | gabriel__: I did see your menu.lst, just wanted to be sure the right disk is mentioned there. | 17:18 |
| gabriel__ | ok | 17:18 |
| bankix | gabriel__: When you select windows from your grub boot menu, what happens? | 17:18 |
| gabriel__ | it appears error 22 | 17:18 |

| bankix | gabriel__: Did you change anything in the partition table? | 17:21 |
| gabriel__ | how can I fix it? I recently installed windows xp | 17:21 |
| gabriel__ | No | 17:21 |
| sidh | greetings gentlemen | 17:21 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Maybe it could help to rewrite the partition table via "fdisk /dev/sda", checking the contents via "p" and then write it again using "w". | 17:22 |
| ubuntu_606_upgra | !hi | sidh | 17:22 |
| ubottu | sidh: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 17:22 |
| gabriel__ | how can I do that? Im not a linux expert | 17:22 |
| bankix | gabriel__: from the command line. | 17:22 |
| bankix | gabriel__: E.g. after booting from an ubuntu cd in live mode. | 17:23 |
| gabriel__ | could you help me out? I dont know that much about ubuntu | 17:23 |

| coldjack | hello can anybody help me i have a wireless headset logitech pc clear cheat but it does not work unter my jaunty jackalpüe | 17:23 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Within fdisk (it's interactive), list the partitions using the "p" command, and if everything seems to be okay, write the table again using "w". | 17:23 |
| bankix | gabriel__: fdisk will exit then. | 17:24 |

| bankix | gabriel__: Better from live cd, but you can run it now as well. Only the changes wouldn't be active till next reboot. | 17:24 |
| sidh | does someone had the same problem ? and how to fix that ? | 17:24 |
| guntbert | sidh: don't assume we are only *men* (of whatever sort) in here :-) | 17:24 |
| gabriel__ | ok, ill do it now then I reboot | 17:25 |
| gabriel__ | wait a sec please | 17:25 |
| bankix | gabriel__: But caution, you're using a partitioning tool. Be aware, in worst case, you could loose all your data. | 17:25 |

| bankix | gabriel__: Type "p" | 17:28 |
| sidh | ubottu: no i didn't see | 17:28 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about no i didn't see | 17:28 |
| sidh | thanks | 17:28 |
| bankix | gabriel__: This lists the current partition table. | 17:28 |
| Guest59611 | i need some help please | 17:28 |
| heoa | ikonia: is it possible to set it to compare all dependencies between ... | 17:28 |
| heoa | ... files in a directory? | 17:28 |
| guntbert | !ask | Guest59611 | 17:28 |
| gabriel__ | "sudo fdisk /dev/sda p, thats it? | 17:28 |
| ubottu | Guest59611: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 17:28 |
| n8tuser | gabriel__-> h for help, but exit out first and man fdisk please | 17:29 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Is that partition table okay? | 17:29 |
| ikonia | heoa: files don't depend on each other | 17:29 |
| ikonia | heoa: you can write scripts using commands like "strings" to search for common words | 17:29 |
| bankix | gabriel__: No. fdisk is interactive. | 17:29 |
| bankix | gabriel__: by "sudo fdisk /dev/sda" you entered interactive mode. | 17:29 |
| heoa | ikonia: by dependency, I meant matches. | 17:29 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Now you can use the fdisk commands. "p" will list your current partition table. | 17:29 |
| ikonia | heoa: grep and strings are two commands to make a script | 17:30 |
| gabriel__ | I typed that and all I see after that is > | 17:30 |
| Newbuntu2 | I'm setting up ubuntu on a computer which will not have a monitor (mini-server). However, I want to be able to access it using VNC. I managed to get the wireless card working, but how can I set it up so it automatically makes it's own network when it boots (eg after a power failure, I want to be able to connect to it without needing to hook up a monitor to enable wireless, etc). Note that I... | 17:30 |
| Newbuntu2 | ...need to use ndiswrapper for my card | 17:30 |
| bankix | gabriel__: ">" is the fdisk command prompt. | 17:30 |
| bankix | gabriel__: After using "p", did fdisk list any partitions? | 17:30 |

| grawity | tPl0ch: There are 8.04 (Hardy) and 8.10 (Intrepid). | 17:31 |

| bankix | gabriel__: Funny, the boot flag is set for the 9 gig partition. Sure, the 9 gig is the empty one? | 17:38 |

| bankix | gabriel__: Found that line? | 17:40 |
| gabriel__ | I see tittle Microsoft Windows XP Professional rootnoverify (hd0,0) savedefault | 17:41 |
| bankix | You have to change the line with "rootnoverify". | 17:41 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Instead of "(hd0,0)", insert "(hd0,4)" | 17:41 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, go through this link: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 and let me know if you still have issues? | 17:41 |

| bankix | gabriel__: Just press Ctrl-O | 17:44 |

| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: this happends to me ie. missing the grub | 17:45 |
| grawity | newbie12345: Are you sure it isn't just locked up tightlu? | 17:46 |
| grawity | tightly* | 17:46 |
| bankix | newbie12345: Okay. You see a graphical login screen after booting. Where you have to enter your user name. right? | 17:46 |
| DVA5912 | are there any text to speech software for ubuntu? | 17:46 |
| newbie12345 | yes i see that | 17:46 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, the grub must be on the fat partition that you delete in the first step, hence you loose it everytime , rigth? | 17:46 |
| airtonix | DVA5912, yes | 17:46 |
| newbie12345 | and i have to key in my password | 17:46 |
| DVA5912 | could i use like neospeak? | 17:46 |
| grawity | DVA5912: Try Orca, for example | 17:46 |
| bankix | newbie12345: That's step two with the password. | 17:47 |
| newbie12345 | but my keyboard and touch pad isnt working, so i m stuck...... | 17:47 |
| bankix | newbie12345: You were able to type your user name? | 17:47 |
| airtonix | !info espeak | 17:47 |
| ubottu | espeak (source: espeak): A multi-lingual software speech synthesizer. In component main, is optional. Version 1.40.02-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 67 kB, installed size 244 kB | 17:47 |
| DVA5912 | grawity, airtonix ok but now how "realistic" are they? are they like ms sam,mike,marry? | 17:47 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: no no it is not there the grub is on the ext4 partition | 17:47 |
| newbie12345 | no.... there was no username, i think because it was auto selected as its the default | 17:47 |
| newbie12345 | it went straight to password | 17:47 |
| airtonix | DVA5912, not as good as the software at&t provide | 17:47 |
| grawity | DVA5912: I have neever tried any. | 17:48 |
| bankix | newbie12345: That's absolutely strange. | 17:48 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, i guess the best option would be to let grub chose the default i.e and let the grub take care of the MBR | 17:48 |
| gabriel__ | hi again | 17:48 |
| bankix | newbie12345: Was there some sort of user selection? | 17:48 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Hi. | 17:48 |
| newbie12345 | i only seem to be able to get the cursor to move with my usb mouse | 17:48 |
| newbie12345 | not with my touch pad.... | 17:48 |
| DVA5912 | airtonix, ehh. well im not too fond of theirs anyway. i really like neospeak's but that seems that they are dll based | 17:48 |
| newbie12345 | there was no user selection, oddly | 17:48 |
| airtonix | DVA5912, and not as good as the txt2speech on win7 | 17:48 |
| gabriel__ | It appears error 12, Invalid device requested | 17:48 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: by reading this link that you send it for me? | 17:48 |
| guntbert | newbie12345: another way: boot with the live CD, does your keyboard/mouse work there? | 17:48 |
| Gastion | i am reading the grub help for gabriel. but i missed some in the middle. | 17:49 |
| bankix | newbie12345: Okay, you have an USB mouse, which works fine? | 17:49 |
| newbie12345 | no it does not | 17:49 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, if you have the grub on the ext4 in that case also when you remove the fat partition you are essestially removing all references to the grub sitting on the ext4 partition... | 17:49 |
| DVA5912 | airtonix, well i havent tryed that. just tell me this. are they going to know its defenently a computer talking? | 17:49 |
| newbie12345 | the usb mouse works fine | 17:49 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Error 12? Have to look up this one... | 17:49 |
| Gastion | can someone pm me the text for the last 10min or so? | 17:49 |
| airtonix | DVA5912, i think all current version of ubuntu v8 and up come with orca pre-installed | 17:49 |
| grawity | DVA5912: You could just try and see. | 17:49 |
| airtonix | DVA5912, yes tehy will know | 17:49 |
| newbie12345 | i manage to get into the live CD where i used the on screen Keyboard | 17:49 |
| grawity | airtonix: There's no v8 | 17:49 |
| JooDoo | d | 17:49 |
| bankix | newbie12345: For the moment, keep the usb mouse. You have to change the configuration to have both touchpad and mouse. | 17:49 |
| airtonix | grawity, ?? | 17:49 |
| bankix | newbie12345: Next is the keyboard. | 17:49 |
| guntbert | newbie12345: no keyboard in the live CD session? then why did you install ;-) - and how? | 17:50 |
| kazagista1 | hard question... OpenBSD has a feature called "Network Traffic Normalization", also known as Scrub... does any such security feature exist in the linux network stack? | 17:50 |
| gabriel__ | My problem is that I reinstalled grub so I can enter ubuntu, after that when I try to enter windows it appears error 12, Invalid device requested | 17:50 |
| grawity | airtonix: There are only 8.04 and 8.10 | 17:50 |
| grawity | airtonix: Named by year.month | 17:50 |
| airtonix | grawity, .... | 17:50 |
| DVA5912 | grawity, well its a big step. cause i got to back up everything then spend an hour trying to install ubuntu then re install everything and vm windows again so i got visual studio. a whole bigg mess | 17:50 |
| newbie12345 | I started off with installing it within the windows partition | 17:50 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Could you pastebin your current menu.lst again please? | 17:50 |
| gabriel__ | ok | 17:50 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, hence you loose track of the grub...assuming you have the standrad dual boot use the default and let grub take care of everything...in summary put the grub on mbr and let grub have an entry for your other OS i.e winbows etc | 17:50 |
| gabriel__ | wait a sec please | 17:50 |

| guntbert | newbie12345: ok - listen to bankix please - he has the better ideas... | 17:51 |
| grawity | Hydrid: You need to put the path in quotes, because it has spaces in it. | 17:51 |

| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, i guess things are getting messy. c there are two options: either let grub take care of everyting [default option] or manually put grub on a separate partition [your case] in the second everytime you change the MBR you loose track of the linux partition from MBR and hence you have to put that manually which i don't recommend | 17:53 |
| mnaines | gratuit: How much RAM you got? | 17:53 |

| bankix | newbie12345: Try pressing caps lock and num lock. Will the appropriate LEDs get illuminated? | 17:53 |
| newbie12345 | i could take a screenshot with my camera? | 17:53 |
| newbie12345 | my laptop doesn't have LEDs for those | 17:53 |
| mnaines | gratuit: Methinks you don't have enough swap space | 17:53 |
| bankix | newbie12345: Great idea with the camera. Just do a reboot, then, without touching anything, take the photo. | 17:54 |

| newbie12345 | okay.... i ll do that, and come back.... | 17:54 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, so the simplest/easiest option is the default one..so i think you should swtich from the 2nd option to the first one i.e put grub in the first sector of your HDD i.e the mbr | 17:54 |
| gratuit | mnaines: so does hibernate write to the swap file? what if the swap file has memory contents as well? | 17:54 |
| newbie12345 | it ll take a while though as i removed the installation. thanks so much though! | 17:54 |
| Hydrid | sudo usermod -d /media/Storage Disk/ftp i try to do it but it returns me usermod: user /media/Storage Disk/ftp does not exist | 17:54 |

| Guest16758 | guntbert & ubottu : I am same guest user who was asking about root password issue a while ago ! | 17:57 |
| sidh | i followed the advices of ubottu and remove all kde stuff, then i get the normal ubuntu splash, but my main problem isn't solve : suspend to ram doesn't work anymore, it suspend correctly (it seems so) but awake is KO (black screen with nothing to do except hard reboot) | 17:57 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, lets get back to the point.... | 17:57 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: ubottu is a bot :-) - and you still don't need the root account enabled - believe me - what is the real problem about that? | 17:58 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: I run "sudo grub" then type the command "find /boot/grub/stage1" | 17:58 |
| Guest16758 | How can I recover root password , when root account is enabled (modified),ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid | 17:58 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, yep... right... | 17:58 |
| gabriel__ | Hi again | 17:58 |
| pwnt | hi to you | 17:58 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: then this is the result | 17:58 |
| === MidasManchu is now known as Refefer | ||
| gabriel__ | I still get the same error 12: invalid device requested | 17:58 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: I can not install a software or use sudo or su commands | 17:58 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, pastebin? | 17:59 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Hm. | 17:59 |
| ftab | Guest16758, user might not be in sudoers | 17:59 |
| Guest16758 | yup | 17:59 |
| Guest16758 | ftab: so what can be done about it ? | 17:59 |
| === metacube_ is now known as metacube | ||
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: pastebin? :-? this is the result (hd0,7) | 17:59 |
| ftab | you need to add the user to sudoers | 17:59 |
| gabriel__ | should I fdisk again so you can see it? | 18:00 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Sorry, no clue what's wrong so grub doesn't see your disk when booting. | 18:00 |
| Guest16758 | ftab: how do I do it ? | 18:00 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: lets check the sudo thing: type sudo ls - what happens? | 18:00 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Looks all fine your configuration. | 18:00 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: then waht should I do ? | 18:00 |
| gabriel__ | If I installe grub, will it recognize it? | 18:00 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, cool. now the next step runt this: root (hd0,7) | 18:00 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Grub is running, but it doesn't find your partition, however, the partition table is fine. | 18:00 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: without the - | 18:01 |
| ftab | Guest16758, sudo adduser name_of_user admin | 18:01 |
| Guest16758 | Output is "username is not in the sudoers file, the incident will be reported" | 18:01 |
| gabriel__ | what can I do then? I really need to enter windows, I recently installed it | 18:01 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, then this: setup (hd0) and next this: quit | 18:01 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Also strange: It boots ubuntu without a fuss. | 18:01 |
| gabriel__ | yeah, I can boot into ubuntu without any problem | 18:01 |
| aicra | gabriel__: can you mount /dev/sda5 and see if windows is there? | 18:01 |
| gabriel__ | ok | 18:02 |
| gabriel__ | how do I mount it? | 18:02 |
| bankix | gabriel__: To get back to windows, you could boot from the windows install cd, choose the repair console, and use fixmbr and fixboot to remove grub. | 18:02 |
| Guest16758 | ftab: I told you cant use sudo or su command | 18:02 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, after running these steps grub will be restored to the MBR and we're done | 18:02 |
| ftab | Guest16758, or do this using GUI | 18:02 |
| jamiejackson | can one manipulate the main menu from the cli? if so, how? | 18:02 |
| ftab | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=162867 | 18:02 |
| bankix | gabriel__: After that, windows should boot again, but then you loose grub and can't boot ubuntu. | 18:02 |
| gabriel__ | If I enter from the explorer I can see it | 18:02 |
| __theIdiotBox | jamiejackson, why do you want to do that, btw? | 18:02 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: Any breakthrough ? | 18:03 |
| ryanrhee90 | hi all | 18:03 |
| justpaul | hey ryanrhee90 | 18:03 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: the you will have to boot into recovery mode, "drop to root session", and edit the file /etc/group - there should be a line starting with admin - add your account to that line, save the file and exit/reboot | 18:03 |
| bankix | gabriel__: Which means that you either give grub another try afterwards, or instlal grub into the bootsector of your ubuntu partition and use the windows bootloader for selecting. | 18:03 |
| ftab | ryanrhee90, hi | 18:03 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: then I reboot and things are going to be correct? | 18:03 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, are you there? ...then rebooting will show the basic grub on startup... | 18:03 |
| guntbert | *then | 18:03 |
| ryanrhee90 | i have trouble with setting up openvpn. can anyone help me? i'm running 8.04 lTS | 18:03 |
| ryanrhee90 | LTS | 18:03 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, yeh...do a reboot | 18:03 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: ok now i reboot | 18:03 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: I would require root password in order to use "drop to root session" | 18:03 |
| __theIdiotBox | ubuntu_, coool | 18:03 |
| ubuntu_ | __theIdiotBox: be back soon | 18:03 |
| jamiejackson | __theIdiotBox: i'm setting up my machine, and i like to log what i've done to make it repeatable. gui is tedious for repeating a process, imo | 18:03 |

| guntbert | Guest16758: no, not in recovery mode | 18:04 |
| grawity | guntbert: Recovery mode _does_ ask for root pass if one is set. | 18:04 |
| ryanrhee90 | anyone~? :( | 18:04 |
| Guest16758 | grawity: Nope I can not write the filesystem, it gives only read access | 18:04 |
| __theIdiotBox | jamiejackson, then the best option would be to use gui and record the video and i guess nothing would be better than that for repeating the steps later, rigth? | 18:04 |
| gabriel__ | thanks anyway bankix, you did everything you could, really appreciate the help you gave me | 18:04 |
| grawity | Guest16758: Hmm. | 18:04 |
| guntbert | grawity: ah - thx | 18:04 |
| grawity | Guest16758: mount -o remount,rw / | 18:05 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: It is asking for root password even in that option | 18:05 |

| Guest16758 | grawity: Explain | 18:05 |
| Jimmio | Hey all, I don't remember the person that helped me get my partition mounted in Ubuntu, but it's not allowing anything to be marked as executable now.. | 18:05 |
| grawity | Guest16758: That command will remount the root filesystem, and turn on read/write mode. | 18:05 |
| Hydrid | where to put better my ftp folder from vsftpd ? better under home/ftp or /srv/ftp or there is no difference in security | 18:06 |
| ryanrhee90 | hi all, can anyone help me with openvpn? | 18:06 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: then its a bit longer a way, boot into live CD, mount you local harddisk, but it will be easier when you are once in the live session to come back here | 18:06 |
| __theIdiotBox | Jimmio, does not matter...tell us the prob...you are able to mount ... | 18:06 |
| grawity | Hydrid: There's no difference in security. | 18:06 |
| jamiejackson | __theIdiotBox: i just prefer to use the cli, when possible. when it's not possible, that's fine, but i like to try to find cli ways to do things | 18:06 |
| grawity | guntbert: I think his CD drive wasn't working. | 18:06 |
| __theIdiotBox | Jimmio, then its a permission issue... | 18:06 |
| Hydrid | grawity: thanks | 18:06 |
| ryanrhee90 | i'm not sure what's wrong, but my tun interface isn't found by openvpn | 18:06 |
| __theIdiotBox | jamiejackson, coool....in that case someone would give to better suggestion for cli | 18:06 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: cdrom isnt working properly, it gets stuck often while reading from cd | 18:07 |

| __theIdiotBox | jamiejackson, *you | 18:07 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: can you boot from usb? | 18:07 |
| grawity | Jimmio: What filesystem is this -- ext? ntfs? vfat? | 18:07 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: USB hangs | 18:07 |
| Jimmio | grawity: NTFS | 18:07 |
| gabriel__ | Please, any help | 18:07 |
| gabriel__ | I have a problem: I had to install windows xp because of a virus, and after that when I try to boot into windows I see error 12:invalid device requested, Can somebody help me, please? | 18:07 |
| Guest16758 | the hardware is USB1.0 | 18:07 |
| Hydrid | grawity: could i shortcut a folder from somewhere else in there and make it accesible for my ftp users | 18:08 |
| ftab | gabriel__, that could be a problem specific to windows | 18:08 |
| mneptok | gabriel__: you might try ##windows for help with Windows problems. or is this a GRUB error? | 18:08 |
| grawity | Jimmio: NTFS does not support Unix permissions, and it is not possible to mark something as "executable" if it's stored on a NTFS partition. | 18:08 |
| __theIdiotBox | gabriel__, you have the win OS installed, right? | 18:08 |
| Guest16758 | and the sticks which I have are 2.0 and they are really giving issues, very slow and often hangs | 18:08 |
| __theIdiotBox | mneptok, i guess this a grub error | 18:08 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: already tried those issues | 18:08 |
| gabriel__ | how could that be a problem with windows when the problem is with grub? | 18:08 |
| ekimmargni | I used to have my windows ntfs partition mounted and it would always show up in the Places menu and on the desktop. I still mounts automatically, but doesn't show up there. How can I get it to show up in these places when it is mounted? | 18:08 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: are there important data in you installation? if not I'd suggest you just drop it | 18:08 |
| Guest16758 | * I mean those solutions | 18:08 |
| gabriel__ | I have ubuntu 9.04 64 bits installed and windows xp pro | 18:09 |
| mostafa_ | __theIdiotBox: I am back again thank you my dear friend you are so good :-* | 18:09 |
| Jimmio | grawity: Sorry, but it is. I do it all the time. .sh is executable. Says me. I have the masks set wrong I'll bet | 18:09 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: Yes, its a user system not mine, so cant not delete or uninstall stuff here | 18:09 |
| titan_ark | Hey, I just installed the 64 bit version of Jaunty and I am having issues with sound and the flash plug in :( | 18:09 |
| __theIdiotBox | mostafa_, do i know you? | 18:09 |
| ftab | Jimmio, .sh files are never executable unless chmod +x is set | 18:09 |
| grawity | Jimmio: First, Unix doesn't use extensions - it uses the "executable" bit that's stored in the file system. | 18:09 |
| ryanrhee90 | anyone have experience with openvpn? i'm stuck trying to set it up.. | 18:09 |
| __theIdiotBox | mostafa_, nyways you're welcome... :-) | 18:10 |
| Jimmio | ftab: I can't set it, it unsets. | 18:10 |
| grawity | Jimmio: Second, that "executable" bit CANNOT be stored in NTFS systems. | 18:10 |
| mostafa_ | __theIdiotBox: all thing works well | 18:10 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: sorry then - I'm at the end of ideas - wait - do you have a floppy? | 18:10 |
| grawity | Jimmio: There is simply NO PLACE to store it. | 18:10 |
| ratapoil | I just tried banshee 1.5.0 and it doesn't play files, it shows a red icon meaning it couldn't play the file. it seems like I can't change the engine banshee uses to play media files. what could I try? | 18:10 |
| titan_ark | any ideas guys? i tried searching and reached some old posts about using a 32 bit browser | 18:10 |
| ftab | grawity: chmod +x can't be applied on NTFS ? | 18:10 |
| aicra | gabriel__: I would try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub" but not sure how safe is to do that | 18:10 |
| Jimmio | grawity: I know that. So I either have to deal with everything trying to execute or nothing? How lame. | 18:10 |
| mostafa_ | __theIdiotBox: I am the person that have a grub problem know me? | 18:10 |
| Guest16758 | guntbert: no floppy drives on this system | 18:10 |
| __theIdiotBox | mostafa_, oohh are you ubuntu_? i guess yes | 18:10 |
| sidh | i read on several topic that pulseaudio can occurs suspend to ram problem, does pulseaudio do part of the default basesystem ? | 18:10 |
| grawity | ftab: Nope. NTFS was designed for Windows, and it does not support Unix permissions. | 18:10 |
| __theIdiotBox | mostafa_, ohh hcoooll :-) that worked fine right? glad to know that.... | 18:11 |
| grawity | Jimmio: NTFS simply is not for Unix. It's for Windows. Those are two very different operating systems. | 18:11 |
| mostafa_ | __theIdiotBox: yep U R right i am ubuntu :D | 18:11 |
| ftab | grawity: thanks for the info, and what about FAT? | 18:11 |
| justpaul | ftab: no. But you could put a loopback file in the ntfs partition and format the loopback as a linux filesystem | 18:11 |
| grawity | ftab: FAT is even simpler. | 18:11 |
| __theIdiotBox | mostafa_, :-) | 18:11 |
| ftab | grawity, so FAT do support ? | 18:11 |
| grawity | ftab: No. | 18:11 |
| grawity | ftab: FAT supports a lot less than NTFS. | 18:12 |
| traveller | i swear there was one time i executed a .sh file without +x, but i did run it with sh instead of ./ | 18:12 |
| guntbert | Guest16758: are you sure that isn't "a test, how well ubuntu support works" ? ;-) just kidding - I have really no more ideas, sorry | 18:12 |
| mostafa_ | __theIdiotBox: thanks bro | 18:12 |
| grawity | traveller: Then you didn't execute the .sh file - you executed /bin/sh instead. | 18:12 |
| ftab | traveller, that file might already had the chmod +x applied to it while copying | 18:12 |
| __theIdiotBox | mostafa_, you're always welcome dude! | 18:12 |
| codazoda | After waking up from suspend or hibernate I have to run "sudo modprobe ath_pci" to get my network reloaded. How can I do that automatically? | 18:12 |
| ryanrhee90 | :( no one in ##openvpn will help me either... | 18:12 |
| Jimmio | grawity: I realize. I also realize I need >4 gig files, I need to be able to use Windows with the partition, and I also realize I need to run shell scripts without CDing to it from a terminal. | 18:13 |
| traveller | i checked later with ls -l, no +x, but i guess /bin/sh took it and ran it anyway | 18:13 |
| zamba | i have a laptop with a hotkey for enabling and disabling the wlan radio.. how do i get that working? | 18:13 |
| grawity | traveller: That is correct, because you executed /bin/sh, and not the file directly. | 18:13 |
| zamba | if you have a physical switch button, then it's no problem, because the hardware is detached.. but with a button it's up to the software to remove the drivers and such, right? | 18:14 |
| newbie12345 | hi apologies, i wass wrong, it says username, not password | 18:14 |
| traveller | grawity, thanks, that was my guess and i suppose you just confirmed that | 18:14 |
| ftab | Jimmio, if a file has chmod +x set then you can even execute that from the GUI | 18:14 |
| Refefer | Hi guys, I have a couple of network drives connected via samba and scp bookmarked. How can I access these folders via the command line and how can I access them from within programs? | 18:14 |
| ftab | I mean file explorer | 18:14 |
| Jimmio | ftab: Can't. NTFS. | 18:14 |
| codazoda | zamba: That gives me an idea for mine. I could assign a hot key to modprobe the card. You could also, although it might not be the "special" key. | 18:14 |
| grawity | ftab: But the file is on a NTFS filesystem - he _can't_ set +x | 18:14 |
| titan_ark | hey, anyone has an idea of installing the flash plugin on a 64 bit Jaunty? | 18:14 |
| grawity | Jimmio: Must the scripts be on that filesystem? | 18:14 |

| zamba | codazoda: but my primary focus is to save battery power and "radio noise" | 18:18 |
| titan_ark | ftab, am a noob, dont understand what that means | 18:18 |
| newbie12345 | !bankix i installed it in Vista, so it was working perfectly | 18:18 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:18 |
| Jimmio | grawity: It's easier to just change it so everything says it's executable. That's what I'm doing. | 18:18 |
| zamba | codazoda: so i'm not sure if that's enough for that.. just removing the module, i mean | 18:18 |
| grawity | Jimmio: So umask=7022? | 18:18 |
| aicra | Gastion: I don't think you can undoit, what is missing? | 18:18 |
| gabriel_ | Hi | 18:18 |
| codazoda | zamba: Yeah, I think that would do it. | 18:18 |

| Refefer | Anyone know where folders mapped via 'Connect to server' are actually linked? I'd like to access it but I'm having difficulties doing so. | 18:18 |
| ftab | titan_ark, could you please paste the error on pastebin.com? | 18:18 |
| grawity | Refefer: ~/.gvfs/ | 18:18 |
| Gastion | aicra: so you think its not totaly messed up, i can saftly reboot? | 18:18 |
| ftab | titan_ark, and paste the url here | 18:18 |
| newbie12345 | !bankix while vista was still loaded, i inserted the cd, and installed ubuntu as an application within vista, then after that it asked be to restart the computer and i get to choose between vista and ubuntu. | 18:19 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:19 |
| codazoda | zamba: I don't know for sure, but I imagine the WiFi card is "off" if the module is removed. | 18:19 |
| zamba | codazoda: how do i check which module the interface uses? | 18:19 |
| gabriel_ | Please, I really need some help, after grub reinstall I cant boot into windows, it appears error 12: invalid device requested, can somebody help me? | 18:19 |

| interrupt | i have dual monitors. how can i have both of them detected in use extended feature? | 18:19 |
| grawity | Refefer: They are mapped using GNOME's GVFS system - there are commands such as gvfs-mount too. | 18:19 |
| newbie12345 | bankix yes i am! | 18:19 |
| aicra | !info dpkg-reconfigure | 18:19 |
| ubottu | Package dpkg-reconfigure does not exist in jaunty | 18:19 |
| titan_ark | ftab, "sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin" is this the right command? | 18:20 |
| newbie12345 | bankix: i shouldnt use that? | 18:20 |
| aicra | Gastion: dpkg-reconfigure reconfigures your grub | 18:20 |
| zamba | oh.. iwlagn.. that's the module | 18:20 |
| bankix | newbie12345: That's something very special... | 18:20 |
| Gastion | !info dpkg-reconfigure | 18:20 |
| ubottu | Package dpkg-reconfigure does not exist in jaunty | 18:20 |

| __theIdiotBox | gabriel_, seems missing entry for windows | 18:20 |

| newbie12345 | bankix: oh sorry i had no idea, first time... | 18:20 |
| gabriel_ | ok, but how can this be fix? | 18:20 |
| aicra | Gastion: i think is safe but you can see in menu.lst if everything looks fine | 18:20 |
| titan_ark | ftab, it gives a could not find package adobe-flashplugin error | 18:21 |

| ftab | titan_ark, yes, but flashplugin is restricted and you won't find that in default Ubuntu Repositories | 18:21 |
| zamba | codazoda: didn't work removing the module, it seems.. i still have the light on the laptop indicating that it's in use | 18:21 |
| Guest65559 | grawity,guntbert and others: Thanks for your help , if it works gr8 and if it doesnt then.... | 18:21 |
| Guest65559 | Bye guys ! | 18:21 |
| Gastion | sudo dpkg-reconfigure -h implies that it is existing in jaunty | 18:21 |
| gabriel_ | If you want I can pastebin my menu.lst | 18:21 |

| codazoda | zamba: lsmod | 18:21 |

| ftab | GPL he might have skype contacts :-) | 18:31 |
| ftab | and skype works best with Ubuntu GPL | 18:31 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: Both xmessage and zenity probably won't work, because they're not run by you - and so they won't have access to your screen. | 18:31 |

| ftab | titan_ark, were you able to get the flash work? | 18:32 |
| ikonia | xok: it can't compile correctly if the header files are missing | 18:32 |
| titan_ark | ftab, yeah like a charm :) | 18:32 |
| newbie12345 | installed ubuntu, but i cannot key in my user name to enter ubuntu as my keyboard and touch pad is not functioning, anyone knows what can be done? I used the Wubi installer package | 18:32 |
| mykol | GPL, how are those different? | 18:33 |
| ikonia | xok: ok so you have warnings, you'll need to use the correct configure options to point at the headers | 18:33 |
| ftab | titan_ark, lspci | grep Audio | 18:33 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: But I'm not sure if it'll work without Xauthority data. | 18:33 |
| xok | ikonia, I've told triple times already "it does compile without problems".. what to do now?.... I can't sing here... :-D | 18:33 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, back to you, be more specific about your h/w detaisl etc...did you use google by any chance? | 18:33 |
| mykol | xok, lol | 18:33 |
| === hayden is now known as hwilliams | ||
| interrupt | is anyone using extended dual monitors?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? | 18:33 |
| ikonia | xok: rebuild it with the correct configure options | 18:33 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: oh , so it will be easy to not use GUI in this case. i only need for a simple backups for recently modified | 18:34 |
| ikonia | interrupt: adding ????????????????????? will just get you ignored | 18:34 |
| === hwilliams is now known as hayden | ||
| titan_ark | ftab, okay thanks. shall check it up | 18:34 |
| optimus | i had used foremost to recover my deleted images, foremost ran successfully, but the corresponding backup folder does not show anything in GUI mode, when i go to access it using cd command it says permission denied | 18:34 |
| ftab | titan_ark, that should return the type of hardware you are using. | 18:34 |
| xok | ikonia, I've already done that, still the same... --with-extra-include-path=/usr/include/mysql | 18:34 |
| GPL | mykol: Skiga is a complete different package / VOIP solution / especially built for Gnome users :) | 18:34 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: yes i did, it only came up with suggestions to key into the terminal if the keyboard is not working, however, I cannot get access to the terminal | 18:34 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: Besides, gdm will probably be killed immediately anyway. Does the script require a GUI? Or is it only for notifications? | 18:34 |
| xok | and the same with libraries... | 18:34 |
| ftab | titan_ark, then try /etc/init.d/alsa force-reload | 18:34 |
| __theIdiotBox | interrupt, plz dont spam...have patience.... | 18:34 |
| ikonia | xok: then speak to the softrware maintainers then, it may not have support for it yet, could be a bug in the source | 18:34 |
| titan_ark | ftab, I really do not know how to check the return type. pardon my ignorance! | 18:35 |
| ratapoil | anyone advices against getting software updates from the getdeb repo? | 18:35 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, then how are typing into this channel... | 18:35 |
| optimus | foremost?? | 18:35 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: i am using vista at this moment | 18:35 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: no , i wont use user interface in that case. | 18:35 |
| GPL | mykol: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekiga Visit this for more... | 18:35 |
| ikonia | xok: also worth doing a make clean removing your config.cache file and re-configuring | 18:35 |
| mykol | GPL, will I keep my contacts and such? | 18:35 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, okey.... | 18:35 |
| ftab | titan_ark, lspci | grep Audio didn't worked? | 18:35 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: just notify the user for completed backup | 18:35 |
| GPL | mykol: Nope, not Skype Contacts | 18:35 |
| grawity | mykol: Ekiga is not compatible with Skype | 18:36 |
| ikonia | xok: check your config.log to see what it does to test for the headers, then see if it detects/finds them in the log and if not why not | 18:36 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: as you said i can rename the sym links so killing gdm will be second | 18:36 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: itt works fine here.... using the Wubi package... and installing it as an application in windows | 18:36 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: No, it won't work. | 18:36 |
| mykol | GPL, that's kinda the point though. I have contacts over the world that use that.... so it would make sense to change progs | 18:36 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: i loaded the cd with vista on, and it installed from there | 18:36 |
| ftab | mykol Ekiga uses SIP and Skype uses it's proprietary protocol | 18:36 |
| GPL | mykol: agreed,then. lol | 18:36 |
| titan_ark | ftab It returns "00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)" | 18:37 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: Ubuntu uses Upstart, which only keeps the symlinks for compatibility reasons, but they are actually executed asynchronously | 18:37 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: oh , so i'll go for 02 and hope it will run alphabetically | 18:37 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, what exactly is the issue? is the keyboard working fine through wubi? | 18:37 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: the keyboard does not work with live cd as well | 18:37 |
| ftab | titan_ark, try /etc/init.d/alsa force-reload | 18:37 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: no the keyboard does not work at all with ubuntu. only with windows vista | 18:37 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: so it won run alphabeticallyy? | 18:37 |
| xok | ikonia, thank you, I'll try to find out in logs... | 18:37 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, i assume you're using the latest version of ubuntu i.e 9.04/jaunty? | 18:37 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: Probably not. | 18:37 |
| ftab | titan_ark, alsa provides you the sound drivers so it will force reload that for you | 18:37 |
| robert__ | how do i enable voice mic in gyachi? | 18:37 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: so how can i get the keyboard to work? | 18:38 |
| ikonia | xok: config.log is the core one, also, make sure you remove config.cache before your re-configure | 18:38 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: yes i am using the latest one on the site | 18:38 |
| ikonia | xok: maybe config.status too | 18:38 |
| titan_ark | ftab, wouldnt I need to install them first? | 18:38 |
| === VanDyke_gone is now known as VanDyke | ||
| ftab | titan_ark, did you try /etc/init.d/alsa force-reload | 18:38 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: maybe this is the reason that i 01 02 and then a jump to 20 and 30+ | 18:38 |
| ftab | titan_ark, alsa is automatically installed so you don't need to | 18:39 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, there are two possibilities. either the base linux sys is not able to detect your h/w and hence not able to load the proper kernel module for that or in the second case its not able to find a proper module though it detects the h/w | 18:39 |
| titan_ark | ftab, ah! I need a little more help here, need to get to that directory :P | 18:39 |
| titan_ark | one moment | 18:39 |
| joakimk | Can someone please help me install kdvi on my ubuntu 9 install? | 18:39 |
| hajmola | how come audio cd's made from Brasero don't play in any of my cd players? | 18:39 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: does that mean i cannot use ubuntu? | 18:39 |
| ftab | titan_ark, you need to restart that as sudoer | 18:39 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: I already said, Upstart itself doesn't actually care about the names -- but older software might, and so the names are kept. | 18:39 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, i suspect it must be the first case if your notebook have some new h/ws for which moudle/device drivers are not available as of now | 18:39 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: oh okay, then do u think it would work with 8.04? | 18:40 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: so for conclusion if i'll name my script K02Backup it will run but i wont be able to use GUI. am i right? | 18:40 |
| b-f | My xorg.conf lost its modelines, and while I can edit it and save it, I cannot get the changes to stick past a restart of the x server. | 18:40 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: or should i layoff ubuntu for now? | 18:40 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: Well, yes. | 18:40 |
| JoeZiehmer | I need help in Xubuntu | 18:41 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: So i just need to open a terminal to show the user the total proccess | 18:41 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, i'm more than sure there must be some way out for this...u can get that working in ubuntu. btw you dint answer me, are you using ubuntu 9.04? | 18:41 |
| recon69_lap | hi, I want to flash the eeprom on my phone from ubuntu, is flashrom the correct program to use? | 18:42 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: yes i am using 9.04 | 18:42 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: or even create a log file with info about the last backup. i think i'll go for that. | 18:42 |
| JoeZiehmer | Running Xubuntu 9.04 on an iMac 500 flower power with ati and need to get the xorg.conf file right | 18:42 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: should i try 8.04 insted? | 18:42 |
| joakimk | I found this forum posting, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1174999.html, which links to http://snapshot.debian.net/package/kdvi, but I can't understand what to do next... Do I have to compile the source files myself?? | 18:42 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: Technically, a terminal is a GUI program too. | 18:42 |
| JoeZiehmer | I figured a tomahawk and hatchet to the iMac wouldn't really fix it at all./ | 18:42 |
| titan_ark | ftab, I get this: sudo: /etc/init.d/alsa: command not found | 18:42 |
| ftab | titan_ark, ah | 18:43 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: but its not a part of gdm right? | 18:43 |
| JoeZiehmer | Anyone have any idea on how to fix it? | 18:43 |
| fiber | hello.... i am transfering a bunch of data from one computer to the other with scp... my connection dropped midway, is there any way to start the transfer again and not redo any files that i already have downloaded? | 18:43 |
| b-f | My xorg.conf lost its modelines, and while I can edit it and save it, I cannot get the changes to stick past a restart of the x server. | 18:43 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: Any GUI, including gnome-terminal and such, goes through X -- and X is killed when GDM is killed. | 18:43 |
| ftab | titan_ark, do you have pulse audio installed? | 18:43 |
| titan_ark | ftab, hmmm now how do i check that? | 18:44 |
| interrupt | ok so nobody in the world is using dual monitors or the extended feature with ubuntu... no one. | 18:44 |
| aicra | joakimk: I thing kdvi is superseded by okular | 18:44 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, you can try the last version or the current testing version ie. use either 8.10 or 9.10 | 18:44 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: i know that pressing ctrl+alt+f4 will pass me to a non grahpical interface.the process will be displayed there in that case? | 18:44 |
| joakimk | aicra: Ah, ok, I thought perhaps so. I'll get that instead :) | 18:44 |
| b-f | How I get my xorg.conf changes to stick past a X restart? | 18:45 |
| optimus | audio output not so good | 18:45 |
| ftab | titan_ark, aptitude search pulseaudio and if it's set to i then it's installed | 18:45 |
| optimus | any help | 18:45 |
| MikeC | Hi all, any advice on how to install a 32 bit lib*-dev package on amd64 ubuntu? | 18:45 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: okay.... which should i use? 8.04, 8.10 or 9.10? | 18:45 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: I think shutdown message to to the 8th tty... Ctrl-Alt-F8. | 18:45 |
| __theIdiotBox | interrupt, quite a lot of ppl are use that but there might not be any one hanging around in here | 18:45 |
| grawity | RanyAlbeg: err... shutdown messages go* | 18:45 |
| __8472 | Hi, I have a question about the "Gnome Menu"(Applications, Places, System). is it possible to change somewhere to not to display the content of some category in just one column? Like e.g. in "Applications\Sound & Video" I have a really lot of stuff, and the only thing which I see is a plenty of items in only one column http://testujem.freeweb7.com/gnome_menu_full.jpg , and when I need something more, I must scroll down or up to find it | 18:45 |
| __8472 | . Is it possible to rearrange it somehow to display it side by side, in more columns without any scrolling? thx. | 18:45 |
| mnaines | __8472: System>Preferences>Main Menu allows you to choose what is in the menu | 18:46 |
| Kittykis | __8472, you could move some things into a submenu | 18:46 |
| Kittykis | and what mnaines | 18:46 |
| Kittykis | said | 18:46 |
| oli1 | can anyone help me i cant find the recycle bin | 18:46 |
| mnaines | oli1 lower right corner | 18:46 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: :) well thanks for that i appreciate your help. | 18:46 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, first try 9.10 testing then you might try 8.10 but i guess you can use google to do basic changes here and there and it shoud work ...but yuou need to spend some time googling and fixing the bug...you just need a bit of time...nothing else | 18:47 |
| interrupt | yeah i know idiotbox but i unfortunately have some people waiting around on me and i am not sure where to go. let me search google all over again.. | 18:47 |
| titan_ark | ftab yeah its set to 'i' | 18:47 |
| mykol | traveller, awesome | 18:47 |
| ubuntuisloved | how do I get the details of the path that launch's for an item in ubuntus applications menu i cant seem to right click on it to see it's path for the launcher | 18:47 |
| __8472 | mnaines: i know about it, but what if i want it all in there? this is not the solution i want | 18:47 |
| traveller | mykol, cool | 18:47 |
| __8472 | Kittykis: no submenu's | 18:47 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, i meant changes in your current linux version i mean 9.04...some hacks shud do the job | 18:47 |
| oli1 | which one is the right corner? | 18:47 |
| titan_ark | ftab but there are a few more things that are set to 'p' | 18:47 |
| oli1 | i dont see it | 18:48 |

| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: oh okay, i think thats too technical for me. thanks though! | 18:48 |
| xok | oli1, then just add it from panel menu "Add Applet".. :-D | 18:48 |
| RanyAlbeg | grawity: :) | 18:49 |
| xok | oli1, and choose "trash"... :-) | 18:49 |
| mykol | HELP, trying to setup Evolution mail with Exchange server 5.5. NOT compatible, anyone know of a program that will work instead? | 18:49 |
| titan_ark | ftab, should I do what is mentioned in this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio | 18:49 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, if you find that a bit difficult then just try the 9.10 version and hopefully you'll get that working... | 18:49 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, you're welcome buddy | 18:49 |
| mykol | HELP, trying to setup Evolution mail with Exchange server 5.5. It's NOT compatible. Anyone know of a program that will work instead? | 18:50 |

| b-f | Up until yesterday, My xorg was working perfectly. | 18:50 |
| b-f | Since then, it lost all of its custom content. I can edit that back in, but when I restart x the changes are gone and I'm still at 800x600 instead of 1440x900 | 18:50 |
| b-f | Why aren't the changes sticking? | 18:50 |
| newbie12345 | _theIdiotBox: okay thanks! | 18:51 |
| grawity | b-f: Make sure you actually _save_ the changes to xorg.conf. (It requires root privileges to change.) Also, look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 18:51 |
| __theIdiotBox | newbie12345, cool .... :-) | 18:51 |

| grawity | mykol: Repeating your question won't help if nobody knows the answer. | 18:52 |
| dadrock | Can any one tell me how can i stop sum of my services to not start at boot of my ubuntu 9.04. | 18:52 |
| mykol | grawity, well I guess I was hoping. I can't figure it out. Stayed up trying to search for an answer. | 18:53 |
| titan_ark | ftab oh oki. :( the last time I installed ubuntu on my desktop everything worked like a charm, one the notebook its frustrating and it came shipped with Vista! :'( heights of torture | 18:53 |
| grawity | mykol: Is it your Exchange server, or someone else's? | 18:53 |
| hajmola | dadrock, system>administration>services | 18:53 |
| mykol | grawity, it's the Universities | 18:53 |
| grawity | mykol: Do they have IMAP enabled? | 18:53 |
| mykol | grawity, ??? | 18:54 |
| __theIdiotBox | __8472, i guess you can make it display side-by-side...that shoud be fine , right? | 18:54 |
| aicra | __8472: you cah hide some entries with "alacarte" | 18:54 |
| mykol | grawity, let me look at their site and check if there's any info | 18:54 |
| __8472 | __theIdiotBox: based on what knowledge you guess like that? because i would love to know how to make it. | 18:55 |
| __theIdiotBox | __8472, alacarte would be better option | 18:55 |
| === star is now known as Guest88387 | ||
| miguelonnnn | hi | 18:55 |
| dadrock | hajmola: that is fine but at boot my my tomcat application also starts which is not listed in that . How to remove that. ? | 18:55 |
| __8472 | aicra: i don't wan't to hide anything, i wan't it there all | 18:55 |
| __theIdiotBox | __8472, from the link you posted ...rather than scrolling put it aside | 18:55 |
| miguelonnnn | please guys, just a quick question, why ls -r .* won't go up to root ( / ) level if recursively should take .. and its parent .. and so on to the end? | 18:56 |
| mykol | grawity | 18:56 |
| __8472 | __theIdiotBox: not with the alacarte, i know about that "tool", that's not it, or i didn't find there any option to make it side-by-side | 18:56 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: It ignores . and .. | 18:56 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: Otherwise it would loop endlessly. | 18:56 |
| miguelonnnn | the only i get is the ls -r of the parent directory .., but not its .. and so on | 18:56 |
| __8472 | __theIdiotBox: well, but how can i put it aside? that's the problem man. | 18:56 |
| miguelonnnn | actually not endleslly, just to / | 18:57 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: And then it would see all the directories in / | 18:57 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: And go inside. | 18:57 |
| __theIdiotBox | __8472, even i dont remember the name in that case....lets ask other geeks out here | 18:57 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: And then it would see /bin/.. and go up again. | 18:57 |
| miguelonnnn | hehe ok i get it, the / parent is / | 18:57 |
| damn_ | how do i convert a .wav file into 8-Bit?? | 18:57 |
| mykol | grawity, it says something about Outlook for IMAP. Is that what I'm looking for? | 18:57 |
| kalpsiz_asi_ | selam | 18:57 |
| miguelonnnn | well grawity , the problem is | 18:58 |
| miguelonnnn | i want to cp a whole mounted filesystem to a usdb | 18:58 |
| grawity | mykol: Yes - set up Exchange for an IMAP account, server imap.uky.edu, SSL enabled. | 18:58 |
| Hydrid | How from my winxp i will see my vsftpd server and log in? | 18:58 |
| __8472 | __theIdiotBox: i'm already asking, and few people including you answered, mostly advised the alacarte | 18:58 |
| mykol | grawity, will I get use of my Calander and things? | 18:58 |
| SerialKiller | hey guys just had a fast question to suse or not to suse. has anyone tried opensuse and liked it | 18:58 |
| grawity | mykol: Nope :/ | 18:58 |
| miguelonnnn | and there are dot named files, so i thoughjt i will do cp .* , but then it went up ( .. ) to the parent directory, yeah it did go the upper, but then stopped going up recursively. That's why i asked | 18:59 |
| mykol | grawity, well I guess beggers can't be choosers. :P | 18:59 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: .* is expanded by your shell, not by cp. | 18:59 |
| __theIdiotBox | __8472, have you tried that, btw? | 18:59 |
| robert__ | how do i enable voice mic in gyachi? | 18:59 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: So cp cannot know if you just typed .*, or if you actually told it to go to .. | 18:59 |
| __8472 | __theIdiotBox: if i've tried what? | 18:59 |
| Jeeves_Moss | is there any good programs that read the ID3 tags on a MP3 to look for dumplicated? | 19:00 |
| grawity | mykol: It's _Microsoft_ Exchange. And Microsoft is not one of those companies who like Linux... | 19:00 |
| mykol | grawity, lol I could see that being an issue | 19:00 |
| __theIdiotBox | __8472, yep? alacarte | 19:01 |
| torn_ | Is there any way around connecting to a printer that has no drivers for Linux? Perhaps some way through wine, or installing the printer on a Windows machine and sharing to for use with a Linux machine? | 19:02 |
| grawity | mykol: But their mail (IMAP) server seems to be down, too. | 19:02 |
| __8472 | __theIdiotBox: the alacarte is well known tool to me already for several years, and i don't see there any option to rearrange the category submenu items side-by-side instead of scrolling in one column. | 19:02 |
| torn_ | We just bought a Kodak ESP7 printer, and of course, no support for Linux or Unix... | 19:02 |
| mykol | grawity, did you look at the site? | 19:03 |
| grawity | mykol: I did. | 19:03 |
| grawity | torn_: Drivers won't work with Wine - and for sharing, you'll need Linux drivers too. | 19:03 |
| torn_ | grawity, so now what? Just can't print from the Linux machines? | 19:03 |
| mykol | grawity, sorry that was the Computer SCience page.... try the one I just sent you | 19:03 |
| cheezespread | torn_: I have heard ndiswrapper can help with devices which work in windows using the inf or ini files ..not sure though. | 19:04 |
| torn_ | That really hurts. No being able to print just because I'm using Linux. I wish these manufacturers would have some more respect. | 19:04 |
| torn_ | ndiswrapper for wireless cards, I know about. | 19:04 |
| pauljw | torn_: i had an issue like yours with a lexmark printer, the only solution i had was to access the files via network from the windows machine and print them. | 19:04 |
| x404x | they have your money torn, why should they need respect ? they run a business after all | 19:05 |
| torn_ | Is there any reason why they won't release an open source version of their drivers, and let the community handle these open source drivers on their own? They wouldn't need to support them or gaurantee anything. | 19:05 |
| miguelonnnn | ok i got it Granis | 19:05 |
| miguelonnnn | grawity, sorry Granis | 19:05 |
| __8472 | Hi, I have a question about the "Gnome Menu"(Applications, Places, System). is it possible to change somewhere to not to display the content of some category in just one column?

| __8472 | . Is it possible to rearrange it somehow to display it side by side, in more columns without any scrolling? thx. | 19:06 |
| miguelonnnn | so what shoulda do to copy absolutely any file at the mounted point? | 19:06 |
| torn_ | x404x, I would write an email to Kodak telling them about my greivance, but I already know how they'll simply reply with an automated response about how they're "working hard" to support Linux, which is baloney. | 19:06 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: Copy . -- the current directory. | 19:06 |
| miguelonnnn | i mean, recursively, invisible dot named files, and so on, everything | 19:06 |
| simplexio | torn_: no idea which company we are talking here, but sometimes its because they dont even own all tech in driver | 19:06 |
| torn_ | Kodak, simplexio. | 19:06 |
| miguelonnnn | what? copy . -- directory? | 19:06 |
| melvster | hi all are there any good resources for "getting the most out of ubunutu", I've been using for about a year, and would like to find out useful additions to my system, i like planet ubuntu for this, are there any other good blogs/guides? | 19:06 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: . means the current directory | 19:06 |
| torn_ | pauljw, you shared the files and printed them? How? | 19:06 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: (just like .. means parent) | 19:06 |
| miguelonnnn | will just cp directory_containing_files destination work well? | 19:07 |
| miguelonnnn | ahh sorry but i can't do that | 19:07 |
| torn_ | pauljw, wouldn't you still need Linux drivers, even to access a shared printer on a Windows machine? | 19:07 |
| miguelonnnn | cause i want to copy the wiles into it, not the folder | 19:07 |
| KB1JWQ | melvster: It's usually better to start from "here's what I want to do" then find alternate ways of doing it. Changing things just to change 'em is difficult. | 19:07 |
| abacabb | yeah | 19:07 |
| tommydolby | anyone know a command line recording utility? | 19:07 |
| grawity | torn_: You would need Linux drivers. | 19:07 |
| tommydolby | er, sorry, commandline audio recording utility | 19:07 |
| simplexio | torn_: which driver we talking about | 19:08 |
| grawity | simplexio: Kodak ESP7 | 19:08 |
| x404x | torn i always get the answers that "it is so exciting" every time they mess up something lol, sure. I would use the word tragic more appropriate. well 80% are using windows so thats what they write drivers for. not many companies make drivers for linux, unless they run a niche market designed just for that | 19:08 |
| grawity | torn_: If you have a Windows machine, I can only think of one solution: print to a PDF file, then copy that PDF to Windows machine, print it there. | 19:08 |
| MikeC | Has anyone managed to compile ufo ai with amd64 - 9.04? I am getting errors with SDL_ttf. | 19:09 |
| melvster | KB1JJWQ: thanks, ill try that, are there any other good blogs other than planet ubuntu? | 19:09 |
| x404x | these days we are lucky to get any drivers at all ;( | 19:09 |
| mnaines | x404x: What drivers are you looking for? | 19:09 |
| torn_ | grawity, yeah, but that kills the whole point of printer from another machine. | 19:10 |
| toxin | Hey guys is there anyshortcut to Terminal? and my pc speaker wont go off >:( its eaven in Blacklist file | 19:10 |
| torn_ | Kodak ESP7, simplexio. | 19:10 |
| grawity | torn_: Is there any other way? | 19:10 |
| x404x | I was talking to torn mostly, I could use some stuff to convert a webcam/twain source to send to a linux server tho, im building a website to do webcam sharing | 19:10 |
| mimis | does anybody know how can i connect my sweex webcam? | 19:10 |
| simplexio | torn_: if its usb printer then easiest solution is just install binary vbox for "personal" use and get "windows lisence" and tell vbox use that usb straight... install drivers into vboxed windows and everything works | 19:11 |

| tomlikestorock | I made a bootable usb drive to install ubuntu server on my new box that doesn't have a cdrom. The ubuntu install fails because it's looking for a cdrom, though... how can I change that? | 19:12 |
| pauljw | torn_: it does prevent you from printing remotely, but if you're saving your docs in a windows compatible format and the folder is shared, you just go to the windows machine, access the shared folder on the linux box, open the document and print it. and save up some money and buy a HP printer that is compatible with linux... :) | 19:13 |
| torn_ | simplexio, so basically I would have to boot into a virtual machine, share the files and copy them over the the virtual hard drive, or browse the web with the virtual machine every time I want to print something? | 19:13 |

| b3rz3rk3r | Does anyone know how i can reorder items in the "PLACES" menu? Right-click->edit menus dosent work | 19:13 |
| recon69_lap | toxin: try drag the teminal menu item from the applications->system->terminal to the menu bar itself, then you should have a shortcut icon on screen all the time | 19:13 |

| j1nn | hi all. i'm having trouble with setting wifi hotspot on my ubuntu 9.04.. may someone please help? | 19:14 |
| torn_ | pauljw, it's too late though. My dad already bought this Kodak printer, since he thinks it will save him money on ink. | 19:14 |
| mnaines | j1nn: We can't help unless we know what the problem is | 19:14 |
| toxin | <Berzerker> Pcspeaker is still breaking my brains and ears | 19:14 |
| FunkyDiscoMan | my apologies to anyone who looked at my dvd problem. the drive seems to be bu**ered | 19:14 |

| b3rz3rk3r | lol.. hey Berzerker | 19:15 |
| Berzerker | toxin: me and b3rz3rk3r are two different people. | 19:15 |
| simplexio | torn_: well, you can but that windows to listen real network, plus vbox has this system that you cann allways rollback to last snapsho.. ofcourse it is hack | 19:15 |
| Berzerker | He stole my name. :P | 19:15 |
| toxin | <b3rz3rk3r> yes but it is in blacklist but not working its "Pcspkr | 19:15 |

| j1nn | mnaines: the problem is that i'm setting everything up, but my nokia cannot connect. it seems that it cannot get an ip. nokia is 100% ok, as it conencts to other networks, so the problem is somewhere in spot's config.. | 19:15 |
| leaf-sheep | torn_: I use laser printer. It's not color printer but it can print 2000 pages per ink toner where a regular printer can go up to 200 pages per ink cartridges. Think big business or corporation. :) | 19:15 |
| pauljw_vm | !g | 19:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about g | 19:16 |
| x404x | torn why not just use samba and share a folder with dox you want to print | 19:16 |
| shiki- | any idea? :? | 19:16 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, im pretty sure that how i did it | 19:16 |
| x404x | then print from the windows box, | 19:16 |
| toxin | <b3rz3rk3r> shuold it be Pcspeaker OR pcspkr? | 19:16 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, let me google it, havent done that in a while, so i might be remembering wrong | 19:16 |
| === pauljw_vm is now known as pauljw | ||
| simplexio | torn_: you can use samba to share printer on other machines too.. i think | 19:16 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, all lowercase | 19:17 |
| torn_ | simplexio, I'd still need a Linux driver. | 19:17 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, 2nd one | 19:17 |
| torn_ | leaf-sheep, some ink printers can do 2,000+ pages per cartridge, like the HP Officejet 8500 series. | 19:17 |
| FunkyDiscoMan | yup, i did the unthinkable - booted a windoze hdd i had lying about, same - cd ok, dvd knackered | 19:17 |

| veinor | how can I get a command I schedule in cron or whatever to run under the current X session? | 19:19 |
| pradeep | there's a python module | 19:19 |
| torn_ | It's really not fair, this lack of support for Linux. | 19:19 |
| torn_ | I hope Windows 7 tanks, and people start looking at alternatives. | 19:19 |
| recon69_lap | j1nn: normally quite easy, you got a wireless routher and a computer with a connection? | 19:19 |
| pradeep | ye | 19:20 |
| j1nn | recon69_lap: i want to share wifi _from_ my ubuntu | 19:20 |
| Gnea | torn_: what lack of support? | 19:20 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, got that? | 19:20 |
| x404x | torn email kodak and ask if there is any linux drivers, they might have some but not ship to all customers. if they dont have tell them to make some ;=) | 19:20 |
| tomlikestorock | is there a way to point the installer to the usb stick instead? | 19:20 |
| pradeep | the command is python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9900 where 9900 is the port | 19:20 |
| j1nn | recon69_lap: all article on the net says it's easy, but i just can't gert working.. | 19:21 |
| FunkyDiscoMan | dead, cds will read, not dvds | 19:21 |
| pradeep | please help | 19:21 |
| torn_ | Gnea, lack of printer drivers, lack of support for some mobile devices, lack of support for some software (Silverlight 2.0, Shockware, etc.),and so on. | 19:21 |
| aicra | pradeep: what's your question? | 19:21 |
| Gnea | pradeep: oh, just install samba | 19:21 |
| pradeep | okie | 19:21 |
| mnaines | torn_: I don't have problem with printer or PDA drivers | 19:21 |
| torn_ | x404x, Kodak has an automated reply for those types of emails. I've seen them same reply on many message boards about Linux support from Kodak. | 19:22 |
| pradeep | when i execute tat command it says starting 0.0.0.0 on 900 | 19:22 |
| Gnea | torn_: yeah, a scant few companies don't put out linux drivers (seems odd that kodak doesn't) | 19:22 |
| pradeep | it is not showing my IP | 19:22 |
| Gnea | torn_: considering that their cameras work just fine in linux | 19:22 |
| x404x | torn, ouch, well then you know they care right ;=) | 19:22 |
| mnaines | Gnea: I use Canon printers and cameras, and they work just fine on Linux | 19:22 |
| j1nn | is it ok i see my wlan device twice in route -n output? | 19:22 |

| Gnea | mnaines: I've had good luck with canon and hp printers | 19:23 |
| toxin | <b3rz3rk3r> Got to blacklist file but what i write to here? | 19:23 |
| Gnea | j1nn: yes | 19:23 |
| torn_ | Gnea, they don't think we're important enough to waste their time. After all, no one has to shop carefully for computers/laptops when they're running Windows, because they know it's supported for practically any device on the market. Unlike us, who use Linux, we need to shop carefully to make sure Linux will support our hardware / devices. | 19:23 |
| grawity | torn_, Gnea: _Cameras_ are different from printers. A camera presents itself as a simple ordinary standards-defined USB Storage Device. | 19:23 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, the other half i sent you | 19:23 |
| j1nn | Gnea: thanks... | 19:23 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, "blacklist pcspkr" | 19:23 |

| Gnea | pradeep: it also does linux-to-linux for filesharing | 19:25 |
| torn_ | Why don't these companies release open source drivers (without having to support them, since the community will support the drivers themselves)? | 19:25 |
| aicra | d | 19:25 |
| torn_ | mnaines, I know about that site. But I didn't pick out the printer, that's the problem. | 19:25 |
| aicra | pradeep: sorry man, problems with my irc... just do what gnea said | 19:25 |
| toxin | how i can see temps in linux? | 19:25 |
| pradeep | Gnea : thanks | 19:25 |
| Gnea | pradeep: real file servers use CIFS, which is the protocol that samba uses. dunno about that python script, sounds third-party | 19:25 |
| mnaines | torn_: What do you mean? | 19:25 |
| recon69_lap | j1nn: think you should describe the network you what to set up, what hardware you got (computer+connection type/nics, and internet connection type + hw) | 19:25 |

| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, temps of what? | 19:25 |

| Gnea | pradeep: *yeah | 19:26 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, i use "sensors" pkg | 19:26 |
| pradeep | gnea: the python script is the default module in python 2.5 | 19:26 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, just do "sudo apt-get install sensors" | 19:26 |
| Gnea | torn_: do you have a windows system to hook it up to? | 19:26 |
| babyrobbe | ;\ | 19:26 |
| mnaines | torn_: He shouldn't believe everything he sees on TV...I have a Canon Pixma iP4500 and it has a rather surprisingly long ink life...I can print up to 80 pictures at 9600x2400dpi before the ink is dry | 19:27 |
| pradeep | gnea: should both client and the server have installed samba | 19:27 |
| Gnea | pradeep: I just don't understand the port 9900, that makes no sense for a file server | 19:27 |
| torn_ | Gnea, yes, but then that will be the only machine to print from... | 19:27 |
| Gnea | pradeep: server, yes. client, maybe. | 19:27 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, did you blacklist the spkr? | 19:27 |
| Gnea | torn_: so just share it out on the network to your ubuntu system | 19:27 |
| toxin | <b3rz3rk3r> yes | 19:28 |
| torn_ | Gnea, my laptop is running Linux Mint 7, my netbook is running Ubuntu 9.04 NBR, and my desktop is running openSUSE 11.1 | 19:28 |
| aicra | pradeep: that python command work flawlessly for me | 19:28 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, did it work this time? | 19:28 |
| aicra | pradeep: but is not the better way to share files tough | 19:28 |
| torn_ | Gnea, but even if it's shared on the network, I can't print to it without Linux drivers. | 19:28 |
| toxin | <b3rz3rk3r> have to restart computer | 19:28 |
| Gnea | torn_: you should be able to share it out then and have all 3 of those system connect to the windows system to print | 19:28 |
| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, yup | 19:28 |
| Gnea | torn_: all you need is the PPD file | 19:28 |

| b3rz3rk3r | that just removes it now though | 19:38 |
| StupidWeasel | RohitC: Ubuntu server is fairly solid, although I'd personally use a headless debian install. | 19:38 |
| RohitC | as i am trying to make it for myself it not for business use | 19:38 |
| Gnea | RohitC: There is a version of Ubuntu called Ubuntu Server that is an affordable alternative. It takes time to learn if you know nothing about linux. | 19:38 |

| SirStan | frescoraja: just install it on the same partition | 19:43 |
| SirStan | as windows 7 | 19:43 |
| mnaines | RohitC: Linux servers require knowledge of command line. I would recommend familiarizing yourself with Linux before setting up a server | 19:43 |
| frescoraja | same partition | 19:43 |
| SirStan | yep | 19:43 |
| Gnea | RohitC: okay, the reason we ask this is because the learning curve for linux is VERY steep. you will run into problems and become frustrated at times. | 19:43 |
| RohitC | i installed desktop and server once in virtual node | 19:43 |
| SirStan | format ntfs->ext3 | 19:43 |

| frescoraja | do i still need the ubuntu iso to install wubi | 19:47 |
| gustavonarea | Hello. I'm trying to install Ubuntu via LAN by following the HOWTO at <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet>. I already downloaded the ISO file (for the server edition) and I don't know what value I should use for the "kernel" option in ubuntu-installer/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default | 19:47 |
| Flannel | LordQuackstar: hmm, well, I suppose it depends on what the boot disk does. But, you need to start ntldr on the USB (that's the windows boot loader) | 19:47 |
| pradeep | Gnea: wen i say i type samba at the terminal it says install samba4 | 19:47 |
| mrwes | frescoraja, no, Wubi will download it for you | 19:47 |
| gustavonarea | The howto suggests "kernel ubuntu-desktop/casper/vmlinuz", but I'm not using the desktop cd | 19:47 |
| lolek | RHorse: cause i see only wpa_supplicant.conf in /etc/dbus-1/system.d directory | 19:47 |

| LordQuackstar | Flannel: Is there a way to do that simply? I'd prefer not to start messing around with grub. | 19:48 |
| Flimm | frescoraja: yes, that's easiest way | 19:48 |
| RHorse | lolek I use the -c option and put it in home directory. You can have more than one. It depends on your exact distro. I would do a locate or find search. | 19:48 |
| Flannel | mrwes: I don't think it ever didn't | 19:48 |
| Flimm | I don't know if it supports Windows 7 though | 19:48 |
| frescoraja | why do i get to choose the installation size for ubuntu? is this asking me how big i want the ubuntu partition? | 19:48 |

| b3rz3rk3r | Shasirax, Cedega gets all the fixes first, and tehy contribute to WINE (as they are the same devs) so if u are serious about gaming in UBuntu, get Cedega is my recommendation | 19:59 |

| b3rz3rk3r | toxin, i found it was the other way round.. | 20:04 |
| WIGGMPk | RohitC: user data is confined to the /home directory.. so you can partition it to be on a separate PHYSICAL drive if you need it to be.. (for redundancy) | 20:04 |

| daivana | ou | 20:04 |

| titan_ark | hey, any ideas to get the audio on a 9.04 installed on an hp notebook? i tried a few things, doesnt seem to work | 20:14 |
| miguelonnnn | and a stupid question, why cp hasn't such an option? | 20:14 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: it has, -r | 20:14 |
| mneptok | miguelonnnn: rsync handles dotfiles and dirs perfectly | 20:14 |
| babyrobbe | ... um ... help ... i'm overnurished and starving ;\ | 20:14 |
| miguelonnnn | it wouldn't be too hard, just copy all the files , something like cp -a simmilar to ls -a, which lists all files, dotted or not | 20:14 |
| simplexio | miguelonnnn: cp * /to/somedir -R, dosent copy .something files if i recall right.. .something means literally that file name is ".something" which is usually "hidden" file | 20:14 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah grawity but will -r copy the dotted too? | 20:15 |
| |JZ| | any idea? | 20:15 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: Yes. | 20:15 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: Unless you use * | 20:15 |
| mneptok | miguelonnnn: cp -Ra /path/to/original /path/to/destination | 20:15 |
| mtaylor | anybody around that groks getting translated messages to show up? I'm doing export LC_ALL=de_DE and everything is still in english... | 20:15 |
| grawity | The * is expanded by your _shell_ (not by cp), and the shell decides to not include dotfiles. | 20:15 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: in the shell, or in the GUI? | 20:16 |
| simplexio | miguelonnnn: and cp somedir/ tosomeotherdir -R work right | 20:16 |
| mtaylor | mneptok: shell | 20:16 |
| simplexio | miguelonnnn: just tested it | 20:16 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah, that's why i wonder why not an entire copy doted files included to cp | 20:16 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: most shells require a logout/in to source the new environment | 20:16 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah, but problem is that i'm on mac and -a doesn't exist here | 20:16 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: and which shell? | 20:17 |
| simplexio | mtaylor: od source /etc/profile | 20:17 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: (and "hey dude!") :) | 20:17 |
| simplexio | mtaylor: if you updated profile file | 20:17 |
| mtaylor | mneptok: um. bash ... and export LC_ALL="de_DE" should effect my current shell | 20:17 |
| mtaylor | simplexio: nope, just wanting to change the current session | 20:17 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: true | 20:17 |
| mtaylor | mneptok: (hi!) | 20:17 |
| RHorse | miguelonnnn don't fear the rsync boogeyman - it hasn't killed anyone yet. I promise! | 20:18 |
| miguelonnnn | simplexio, do you mean -r copies doted files included? | 20:18 |
| * mtaylor is trying to verify a bug someone had that's caused by a translated message, which means I have to get the program to actually run in that language | 20:18 | |
| mtaylor | but I can't get _ANY_ programs to run in a locale atm, so it seems there may be some locale-enabling magic that needs to happen? | 20:18 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: cp does not care about .dotfiles | 20:18 |
| simplexio | miguelonnnn: "cp somedir/ newdir -R" works.. i tested it just few mins ago | 20:19 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: It only cares about what arguments you give to it. | 20:19 |
| miguelonnnn | hahaha yeah rhorse, i'll use it for sure, but for just a simple thing like copying i wana now how to make it with cp | 20:19 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: try "export LANG=de.UTF-8" | 20:19 |
| grawity | miguelonnnn: And if you use cp *, then it's not cp's fault. | 20:19 |
| miguelonnnn | but will cp somedir copy the somedir directory or its contents? | 20:19 |
| mtaylor | mneptok: nope | 20:19 |
| simplexio | mtaylor: could it be that you dont have de.DE locales, and if there is no asked locale it uses default which is en i think | 20:19 |
| miguelonnnn | i don't wana copy the dir, but its contents | 20:19 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah i know, cause of autoexpanding shell wildcard | 20:20 |
| mtaylor | simplexio: I had that thought - but I'm trying ls --help, and it _does_ seem that /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/coreutils.mo is there | 20:20 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: try "export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8" | 20:20 |
| DaveDixon | Every time I try to add or remove an application from GNOME:Applications:Add/Remove I get "E: openoffice.org-writer2latex: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127" | 20:20 |
| mtaylor | mneptok: still nope | 20:20 |

| blizzkid | guntbert: that was my question! | 20:21 |
| simplexio | miguelonnnn: yeah.. it creates newdirectory which has all stuff what was in first dir | 20:21 |

| mtaylor | mneptok: ooh... ok, LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 worked on one box, but not the other | 20:22 |

| mtaylor | mneptok: (well, the other machine is plain debian, the one that works is ubuntu) | 20:23 |

| mneptok | mtaylor: but that *is* really odd | 20:23 |
| mneptok | mtaylor: does the Debian box have UTF-8 support? | 20:24 |

| marie-jo | nobody answers... thanks anyway, and bye. | 21:20 |
| buttons840 | is there any significant difference between *.tar *.tar.gz and *.tar.bz2 ? | 21:21 |
| === holger_ is now known as ElChaotik | ||
| rhlin99 | deany: what do u mean? | 21:22 |
| xiven | Okay, I moved my monitor away from the laptop (it was an inch away, now its like 5-6) and that increased my speed quite a bit looks like. | 21:22 |
| genii | buttons840: tar is just tarred up. tar.gz is tar+gzip tar.bz2 is tar+bzip2 | 21:22 |
| rhlin99 | deany: are you talking about settings within gFTP? | 21:23 |
| omgd | Genii what is the command to extract .tar?? | 21:23 |
| omgd | Sudo tar - | 21:23 |
| buttons840 | genii, is there any basic difference? i expect not, althought i'm sure i could google up some performance tests that show small differences? | 21:23 |
| omgd | Then?? | 21:23 |
| genii | omgd: tar -xf filename | 21:23 |
| omgd | Kk | 21:23 |
| omgd | Ty | 21:23 |
| genii | omgd: If .gz then -z option. If .bz2 then -j option | 21:24 |
| deany | rhlin99, no, the server side. you need to provide more info anyway. cant help with "it doesnt work" | 21:24 |
| buttons840 | omgd, you could also use "man tar" and then read, i often look at man pages when i [often] forget how to do things | 21:24 |
| grawity | genii: if I remember correctly, bzip2 takes a little longer to compress. | 21:24 |
| trimmer | Is there anybody that might want to take some time in private to help me with a priority process and nice value issue? If we figure out what the problem is and repair it I will gladly share the solution here. I just don't want to take up valuable channel space for the amount of discussion that will be needed. | 21:24 |
| MenZa | omgd: and if its a large archive, -xvf might be nicer than -xf, as it shows the status of the individualf iles. | 21:24 |
| grawity | er, buttons840: (see above) | 21:24 |
| genii | grawity: Yes, higher compression than gz | 21:24 |
| grawity | buttons840: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2 actually has a comparison with gzip and Deflate. | 21:25 |
| ElChaotik | \quit | 21:25 |
| buttons840 | grawity, thanks, i'll read on the net for the details | 21:25 |

| dassouki | i get an SPLC ERRor - insufficient memory when i try to print a 5mb image on a smasung color laser printer. It seems weird, any ideas ? | 21:26 |
| omgd | Genii also hot to convert .bz2 to .tar ? | 21:27 |
| omgd | -xjf?? | 21:27 |
| genii | omgd: There is no "converting" | 21:27 |
| omgd | Hmm | 21:27 |
| leaf-sheep | omgd: You're saying you want to convert from "zip" to "rar" when there are no way. Just unarchive it. Create a new archive with it. | 21:28 |
| omgd | Ok | 21:28 |
| genii | omgd: If you have a .tar.bz2 file you can use tar -xvjf tarname,tar.bz2 to uncompress it | 21:28 |
| omgd | Oki | 21:28 |
| genii | replace the comma in filename I have there with a period (typo) | 21:28 |
| rhlin99 | deany: sorry but not exactly sure what you need. He uses Serv-U for windows and I used FlashFTP in windows, | 21:29 |
| kevdog | Can you forward an X session through ssh if you are using screen on the remote computer? | 21:31 |
| Ben64 | omgd: if its a tar.bz2 you can just do "bunzip2 foo.tar.bz2" and it will give you "foo.tar" | 21:31 |
| omgd | Ok | 21:31 |
| |JZ| | noob question | 21:32 |
| Ben64 | kevdog: as long as x-forwarding is enabled, sure why not | 21:32 |
| kevdog | omgd: Or if you type tar jxvf foo.tar.bz2 it will give you a directory named foo with all the contents inside | 21:32 |
| |JZ| | i need to install https://edge.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa/+build/1149337 this package how can i do that? | 21:32 |
| leaf-sheep | PPA | |JZ| | 21:32 |
| leaf-sheep | Err, !ppa | |JZ| | 21:32 |
| kevdog | Ben64: I believe the problem may be with running screen | 21:32 |
| leaf-sheep | Oh I fail. | 21:32 |

| Ben64 | kevdog: screen isn't a problem... | 21:33 |
| deany | rhlin99, then you need to be in a windows channel | 21:33 |
| kevdog | Forwarding a session through screen? | 21:33 |
| trimmer | Is there anybody that might want to take some time in private to help me with a priority process and nice value issue? If we figure out what the problem is and repair it I will gladly share the solution here. I just don't want to take up valuable channel space for the amount of discussion that will be needed. | 21:34 |
| Ben64 | kevdog: i really don't see what screen has to do with X | 21:34 |
| deany | rhlin99, but more often than not, with ftp servers and accessing them over the internet (if they are behind firewall/router) its down to setting passive ports.. | 21:34 |
| Ben64 | trimmer: dude just ask here | 21:34 |
| trimmer | Alright | 21:34 |
| kevdog | I know but if I don't run screen - everything forwards. If I run screen, nothing gets forwarded | 21:34 |
| |JZ| | leaf-sheep can i pm | 21:34 |
| |JZ| | ? | 21:34 |
| rhlin99 | deany: why windows channel? It is an issue with gFTP and linux that I am having... | 21:34 |
| kevdog | Does this happen to you? | 21:35 |
| leaf-sheep | |JZ|: Why not here? | 21:35 |
| |JZ| | ok | 21:35 |
| Ben64 | kevdog: nope, works fine. unless you're not explaining it right | 21:35 |
| |JZ| | so the line i would copy is fglrx-installer - 2:8.632-0ubuntu1~jaunty | 21:35 |
| |JZ| | ? | 21:35 |
| kevdog | Ben64: Shoot -- I must be messing something up | 21:35 |
| omgd | G2g bbl | 21:36 |
| Ben64 | kevdog: shouldn't be that hard. "ssh -X [ip_address]" | 21:36 |
| trimmer | For no apparent reason, all of my process will switch to priority 20 and the nice value stays at zero. I turned on my add helper in compiz so I can get visual notification when this happens. If I renice whatever I am using to -1 everything seems to fixitself and start operating again, but until I do that the comp just sits with nearly 100% process operation. | 21:36 |
| kevdog | Ben64: Yea I know that part -- Ill have to debug a few things to give more info | 21:37 |
| leaf-sheep | |JZ|: Run "gksudo /etc/apt/sources.list" -- You'll see a text editor with bunch of line. You'll want to go to https://edge.launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/xorg-testing and set up your distro, copy and paste the lines into that file. | 21:37 |
| leaf-sheep | |JZ|: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list <-- Sorry. | 21:38 |

| Ben64 | kevdog: thats not how it should look for x-forwarding | 21:40 |
| Ben64 | stlsaint: "umount [mount point] OR [device]" | 21:41 |
| deany | rhlin99, well try another client, like fireftp plugin for firefox or filezilla | 21:41 |
| deany | rhlin99, its hardly likely down to gftp | 21:42 |

| simplexio | brian2: first command 'cd' then cd 'Desktop' assuming that file is on your Desktop, then 'sh filename.bin' | 22:04 |
| unop | brian2, well, ok, use tab-complete to get the filename right then. ~/Desktop/oct<PRESS_TAB_NOW> | 22:04 |
| r2wj | thanks popey | 22:04 |
| popey | Dorne: most of those require a webcam supported by flash | 22:04 |
| hahahan | noon: take a look at aircrack.org | 22:04 |

| xibalba | hey all, i'm new to ubuntu. i run apt-get update and upgrade and it's telling me it's holding back a linux-image-server package. is this a package to update the kernel? if so how do i get it to apply these packages. | 22:09 |

| cornwall | xibalba, "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 22:10 |
| xibalba | dist-upgrade is for upgrading to a newer release or for security packages in the same releasE? | 22:10 |
| xibalba | i thought dist-uipgrade was for going from 6lts to 8lts, or something like that | 22:10 |
| bhaskar | help me wanted to connect internet via bluetooth while other computer has internet | 22:10 |
| cornwall | xibalba, I don't really know how it works myself, but earlier this week I needed to run it in order for the kernel to update | 22:10 |
| bhaskar | usin ubuntu 9.04 vboth | 22:11 |
| Ben64 | xibalba: that does upgrade ubuntu | 22:11 |
| xibalba | i want to keep the same version off ubunutu, just upgrade it for security patches. i'm running 8.04 lts | 22:11 |
| Ben64 | xibalba: open synaptic and check for upgradable packages | 22:12 |
| cornwall | xibalba, oh, my bad, then. I assumed you were on Jaunty. Sorry | 22:12 |
| Avery | xibalba: you want "sudo apt-get upgrade" then | 22:12 |
| xibalba | i only have the command line., i did run upgrade but it's holding back those images. if you dont mind i can paste it | 22:12 |
| leaf-sheep | xibalba: sudo aptitude update ; sudo aptitude upgrade <--- will pull in linux-image-server. | 22:12 |
| xibalba | leaf-sheep do i need to reboot for it to finalize the linux-image install? | 22:13 |
| xibalba | what is linux-image anyways? | 22:13 |
| leaf-sheep | xibalba: Very likely. It's kernel. :) | 22:13 |
| xibalba | i'm assuming it's the kernel package | 22:13 |
| xibalba | ok thanks | 22:13 |
| n00b81 | hello all, I | 22:13 |

| Neonexus | I accidently wrote 1.5Mb of raw data to a NTFS partition, can anyone suggest how I would repair this damage? | 22:17 |
| lasse99 | hi | 22:17 |

| bhaskar | leaf-sheep: i wanted to connect as lan so that we can share internet but how i dont know sorry for late reaction | 22:18 |
| ceneee | can someone help me? | 22:18 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: did you use dd ? | 22:19 |
| ceneee | ok, so I'm new to this whole linux/ubuntu thing, and I just really needed an os on my laptop and since I didn't have windows I decided to use thisold kubuntu 7.1 cd i found. OK, so I've been burning cd's with ubuntu 9.04.iso on them and all of them haven't been working and come up as corrupted. Right now I'm posting from the laptop that has kubuntu on it so I wanted to know if there was a way to download + install ubuntu directly | 22:19 |
| Neonexus | I was trying to make a grub rescue disk | 22:19 |
| bhaskar | help me wanted to connect internet via bluetooth while other computer has internet | 22:19 |
| kohlrak | yo, anyone know how to reset enigmail? | 22:19 |

| lasse99 | can I get help? my computer crashed hard and now the ext4 partion is unknown? | 22:19 |
| Trijntje | !puregnome|ceneee | 22:19 |
| kohlrak | as in where all it's configuration files are when purge doesn't get rid of thhem all? | 22:19 |
| VCoolio | how do I symlink to all files in a folder at once? | 22:19 |
| ubottu | ceneee: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 22:19 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: :) boot windows and run chkdsk, but i think you lost all data.. all important stuff is usually at start of partition | 22:20 |
| leaf-sheep | bhaskar: The logical solution would be to buy a wireless router. | 22:20 |
| lasse99 | now disk in other box and the other partion is ok but the / is unknown | 22:20 |
| ceneee | whats !puregnome? | 22:20 |
| Neonexus | Im told ntfs has a backup index at the end of the drive | 22:20 |
| sil0 | Hey, I have ubuntu jaunty and I've setup a dual monitor with twinview (nvidia) but the gnome's panels doesnt expand to the second screen nor the windows can be miximized. Does anyone have an idea ? | 22:20 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: or boot to windows and try use some file recover program, those work quite well | 22:21 |
| Neonexus | the partition aint recognised | 22:21 |
| leaf-sheep | ceneee: The ! command is the trigger for ubottu to respond message corresponding to your question. | 22:21 |
| Trijntje | ceneee: you now have kubuntu and want to make it an ubuntu install? Then follow the instructions that ubottu gave you | 22:21 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: did you write sda or sda1 .. | 22:21 |
| nightrid3r | ceneee: check the md5sum of the iso, if ok burn at lowest possible speed, check md5sum of burned disk, should be the same, then you kan install, i dont think its possible to upgrade from 7.* to 9.04 | 22:21 |
| Neonexus | sda1 | 22:22 |
| ceneee | oo ok | 22:22 |
| leaf-sheep | nightrid3r: It is possible. Just longer route. | 22:22 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: so you still have partition there | 22:22 |
| nightrid3r | ow nice | 22:22 |
| brian2 | unop: are you still there and do you remember my question? | 22:22 |
| Neonexus | yes | 22:22 |
| ceneee | wait, but the ubottu didn't answer my question. did I have to put the ! infront of the question for it to be answered? | 22:22 |
| guntbert | !upgrade | ceneee look at the first link | 22:22 |
| ubottu | ceneee look at the first link: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 22:22 |
| Neonexus | when i use the windows install disk it wants to fresh install | 22:23 |
| idleone_ | leaf-sheep: nightrid3r leap frogging versions is not recommended ( LTS to LTS is supported ) | 22:23 |
| leaf-sheep | ceneee: No. It's a bot. If you wanted something and people can help you by sending the necessary information right way to you. | 22:23 |
| ceneee | ooh ok | 22:23 |
| Neonexus | its as if the ntfs partition signature is gobe | 22:23 |
| Neonexus | gone | 22:23 |
| nightrid3r | idleone_: thats what i thought | 22:23 |
| Neonexus | well it is, 1.5Mb of it | 22:23 |
| leaf-sheep | ceneee: Do you have Jaunty ISO on the Kubuntu machine? | 22:23 |
| ceneee | yea | 22:24 |
| ceneee | I have the cd for it | 22:24 |
| ceneee | its in the computer right now | 22:24 |
| kfan | is there any programs that have a preset "Invitation" option to make party invitations? | 22:24 |
| ceneee | but not connected to the internet | 22:24 |
| eboyjr | How can I find the ./configure commands that built packages? For example alsa-drivers? | 22:24 |
| guntbert | ceneee: upgrading from 7.10 goes stepwise 7.10-8.04-8.10-9.04 | 22:24 |
| guntbert | ceneee: did you check the iso before burning it to a CD? | 22:25 |
| ceneee | ooh. so is there like a file i can download that once I open it the upgrade to 8.04 starts? | 22:25 |
| leaf-sheep | ceneee: I don't mean the CD, I mean the ISO you have on the machine. | 22:25 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=417761 i found that | 22:25 |
| ceneee | ooh no I don't. I burned the iso onto the cd myself so I have the iso on another computer | 22:25 |

| leaf-sheep | ceneee: ISO on other computer --> Is it Windows? | 22:26 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: sudo apt-get install testdisk , says google | 22:26 |
| ceneee | yea the other comp is windows xp pro | 22:26 |

Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 22:28 |
| leaf-sheep | ceneee: Then you will know if your downloaded ISO is clean; not corrupted. Burn the ISO at lowest speed. It'll take a while. | 22:28 |
| ceneee | for the network update, can I do that for kubuntu? I can't seem to find the update manager | 22:28 |
| simplexio | Neonexus: testdisk look very promising | 22:28 |
| ceneee | and I did burn it @ 2x speed. I think I'll try 1x this time | 22:28 |
| idleone_ | ceneee: same link as before has instructions I believe | 22:29 |
| ceneee | alrite | 22:29 |
| leaf-sheep | ceneee: Just check the MD5sum first. Then that's why it didn't work.; | 22:29 |
| leaf-sheep | ceneee: 2X is fine. I think your ISO may be corrupted. | 22:29 |

| ubottu | aj_444: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 22:37 |
| gtacs | stlsaint, yes, it says "since you do not trust skillsoft applet you cannot view te content", but it is not asking me to allow scripting or anything like that. | 22:38 |
| stlsaint | mralexandro, have you tried just plug and play...as ubuntu comes with a large built it database of printer drivers | 22:38 |
| MK13 | guntbert, when you called ubottu for "ftp" | 22:39 |

| mralexandro | IdleOne, not perfect test page, but good enough will play around | 22:49 |
| IdleOne | mralexandro: that is in the settings for the printer. important thing it is recognized and working | 22:50 |

| cfedde | Chimaera: the distro comes with one that will work. | 22:53 |
| Chimaera | i still have this problems connecting to the itnernet | 22:54 |
| guntbert | mnaines: my iwl3945 works nearly perfect since 8.04 | 22:54 |
| GSF1200S | mnaines: you might try 9.10 beta or Arch linux and see of that helps. I would think that chipset would be problem free | 22:54 |
| GSF1200S | anyone know a guide listing all the chipset and potential problems/fixes? | 22:54 |
| cfedde | Chimaera: can you ping the ip address of your system? can you ping your local router? | 22:54 |
| titan_ark | hmm could anyone help me with my audio problem? | 22:55 |

| sebsebseb | titan_ark: there we go, really your lap top was made for Vista, and so you can't just expect everything to work just like that with Ubuntu | 23:08 |

| ForzaPalermo | hey guys is there anything for ubuntu x64 that is like daemon tools for windows, wher eu cant mount an bin or cue file to a virtual cd rom.... i couldnt get acetoneiso to work properply in the 64 bit environment | 23:24 |
| Gnea | azerty: did you burn the cd yourself? | 23:24 |
| zigi | need help with setting passwd in x11vnc | 23:25 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: I compiled acetoneiso on 32bit Karmic alpha 4, and yep it works great | 23:25 |
| ForzaPalermo | sebsebseb: what about for 64bit though | 23:25 |
| Hoodman | im having some trouble with cups-pdf printer, the document im trying toprint is several pages, but need to be printed page by page, cups assings the same name, and the files are overwritten.....what can i do to change this? | 23:25 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: I think that's basically the only one, and it's really just a GUI for commands it seems | 23:25 |
| azerty | Gnea, i don t have at BIOS the possibility to change any IDE settings | 23:25 |
| Walex | lakcaj: I quite like GriP | 23:25 |
| Gnea | azerty: that's not a 'yes' or 'no' answer. | 23:26 |
| ForzaPalermo | acetoneiso: error while loading shared libraries: libQtWebKit.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 23:26 |
| ForzaPalermo | i gt that error when itry running i | 23:26 |
| lakcaj | Walex, thanks - I was leaning towards grip | 23:26 |
| azerty | Gnea so all I read in forums is useless. i still can t boot from livecd | 23:26 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: the other computer has Ubuntu 9.04 64bit on it now, but I don't have a reason to try out acetoneiso on it, altough I could, and well I woudn't now | 23:26 |
| Chimaera | Gnea: k, i right clicked on the icon in the right hand side of the upper panel, clicked on "edit connections", selected the one on the left, and a list appeared, and the only item was auto eth0. I selected it and clicked on edit. I typed up usrname, pw, and service, but when i typed up the MAC address the Apply button became white (inactive) instead of bright green (only the arrow is green). | 23:26 |
| Gnea | azerty: the fact that you're not answering my troubleshooting questions means that, yes, it is useless. | 23:26 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: did you compile actoneiso from source, or get a Deb for it? | 23:26 |
| ForzaPalermo | deb for it | 23:27 |
| ForzaPalermo | dont know how to compile | 23:27 |
| niadh | Can anyone tell me if a application for ubuntu exists that allows me to play and queue up media of different sorts, say I wish to play a set of videos and display some images in a precise order but it's undecided until it's required is there anything which allows me to assemble a queue and they are played as I queue them up and play them? | 23:27 |
| ForzaPalermo | if u could help me i cna try now | 23:27 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: apparantly the get deb website debs can be a bit dodgy | 23:27 |
| ForzaPalermo | sebsebseb: yeah i cant even remove it lol | 23:27 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: I assume that's where you got it from | 23:27 |
| zigi | having trouble with setting up passwd for x11vnc | 23:28 |
| ForzaPalermo | yep thats where the website pointed me to for ubuntu | 23:28 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: well that site isn't offical by the way | 23:28 |
| Gnea | Chimaera: okay. for that procedure, did you read about it somewhere or did you just guess at what you had to fill in the fields with? | 23:28 |
| Chimaera | Gnea: i guessed some of them, for the others, i checked linuxhelp@irc.dal.net | 23:28 |
| ForzaPalermo | ill download the source if you can help me quickly compile | 23:28 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: ah yes it wasn't a standard compile for the source for acetoneiso, but you do extract it to a folder yep, then just follow the instructions | 23:28 |
| Gnea | azerty: so did you burn the cd yourself or did you get it in the mail? | 23:29 |
| Chimaera | gnea: but jphase is not on now, otherwise i would be there | 23:29 |
| sebsebseb | ForzaPalermo: maybe you would end up with two acetones though I don't know, you sure you can't remove the one you installed? | 23:29 |
| ForzaPalermo | yeah | 23:29 |
| Chimaera | gotta go | 23:29 |
| ForzaPalermo | i tried apt-get remove acetoneiso | 23:29 |
| ForzaPalermo | says cnt find i | 23:30 |

| nightrid3r | mnaines: avg | 23:45 |

| sebsebseb | mnaines: I used to do that | 23:49 |
| dorkface | "try ubuntu without changing the system". In that same screen, I want to remove the lower options that are accessed through the "F" keys. Has anyone had experience with that? I looked through that link you gave me, Flannel, but that didn't seem to have that in it. Thank you though :) | 23:49 |
| kermit | in screen, whats this white on red with an exclamation? | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: anyway after going through what plugins were available for pidgin I saw some anti spam stuff for Pidgin, but this was the karmic repo which I assume for this kind of thing will be simlar to the 9.04. | 23:49 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: So I don't need an AV for Linux? | 23:49 |
| slug | mnaines: no | 23:50 |
| eXapid | not really | 23:50 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: I have all the anti-spam plugins for pidgin and they're all active, but they aren't doing anything | 23:50 |
| eXapid | maybe put a av on linux if you have it as a gateway for your windows machines, sure | 23:50 |
| GSF1200S_ | who can give me a script that runs with root priveledge on both going into standby and coming out of standby? | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: MSN = spam these days it's as simple as that, it's either these weird spam bots or whatever they are, or people on your contact lists, there accounts doing it | 23:50 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: Most of the MSN spam bots can infect email addresses and most MSN users won't know | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: I assume it's mainly those that didn't keep Windows secure enough, that end up having their MSN accounts sending SPAM IM messages | 23:51 |
| eXapid | more like the idiots that click the urls that get the spam bot on their in the first place XD | 23:51 |
| wilson | 23:51 | |
| wilson | can somebody explain the funcionamineto of "nmap" | 23:51 |
| gmcinnes | hi all. does anyone know a definitive way to find out what caused my server to reboot? | 23:52 |
| mnaines | eXapid: So since I'm running Ubuntu, I don't have anything to worry about? | 23:52 |
| _Trinity_ | Question. IS a server install more leaner than an instal without a window manager? | 23:52 |
| eXapid | wilson, network scanner, port scanner | 23:52 |
| slug | wilson: nmap is a port scanner | 23:52 |
| Hoodman2 | im having some trouble with cups-pdf printer, the document im trying toprint is several pages, but need to be printed page by page, cups assings the same name, and the files are overwritten.....what can i do to change this? | 23:52 |
| eXapid | mnaines: not at all | 23:52 |
| furius82 | someone kindly writes the command to be given to see if I installed graphics drivers properly | 23:52 |
| Flannel | _Trinity_: The alternate CD can install a non-GUI system too. (which yes, is leaner because it doesn't include the GUI packages) | 23:52 |
| ziesemer_ | In a bash shell script, why can't I get a this to return a status code? | 23:52 |
| ziesemer_ | local someVar=$(somecommand) | 23:52 |
| ziesemer_ | echo "return status: $?" | 23:52 |
| ziesemer_ | Removing "local" makes it work, otherwise $? ALWAYS returns 0... | 23:52 |
| FloodBot2 | ziesemer_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:52 |
| Flannel | ziesemer_: try #bash | 23:53 |
| ziesemer_ | Thx, was wondering if there was a better group... | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: Linux distros are not immune to viruses and other types of malicious programs, but at this time, you don't exactly need to worry, altough should have a hardware firewall ideally, and a good password for Ubuntu | 23:53 |
| nightrid3r | !eeepc | 23:53 |
| ubottu | Information about installing Ubuntu on an Asus EeePC can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC | 23:53 |
| wilson | Slug:"nmap" command but that work? | 23:54 |
| dgnorton | there a way to specify a default by name (instead of ordinal value) in menu.lst? | 23:54 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: I keep the kernel firewall in restrictive mode and I have it set to only allow the IM protocols, HTTP, DNS, and DHCP | 23:54 |
| ActionParsnip | !clone > ActionParsnip | 23:54 |
| ubottu | ActionParsnip, please see my private message | 23:54 |
| Hoodman2 | Is there noone willing to help me with cups-pdf? | 23:54 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: and you can't just get malware installed on Linux, without knowing what you are doing | 23:54 |
| slug | wilson: try man nmap or nmap --help , what are you tring to do? | 23:54 |
| Blaidd | I'm having a problem where every time I reboot my machine my harddrives change device names.. can any one tell me what I can do to stop that from happening? | 23:55 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: So my firewall settings are good enough? | 23:55 |
| slug | Blaidd: look into boot settings in BIOS set a static ] | 23:55 |
| commander_ | does anyone have Globalmenu | 23:55 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: probably | 23:55 |
| wilson | slug: thanks | 23:55 |
| eXapid | Hoodman: sudo apt-get install evince | 23:56 |
| eXapid | alot easier and will get you viewing pdfs right away | 23:56 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: The kernel firewall is set for restrictive mode and is set to only allow the IM protocols, HTTP, DNS, DHCP, and HTTPS | 23:56 |
| TNk | Greetings. I'm trying to set up a fixed IP Adress for wlan0 following this guide "http://codesnippets.joyent.com/posts/show/319" but All I get is a broken connection. Any suggestion? | 23:56 |
| mnaines | I don't know if that's secure enough, though | 23:56 |
| gmcinnes | Hi all. Not sure if my last got through. How do I find out what caused an unexpected restart on my server? | 23:56 |
| Hoodman2 | •eXapid• not having troble viewing | 23:56 |
| Hoodman2 | im having some trouble with cups-pdf printer, the document im trying toprint is several pages, but need to be printed page by page, cups assings the same name, and the files are overwritten.....what can i do to change this? | 23:56 |
| commander_ | part of my top bar is at the bottom and when i open up a webpage this always stops it from covering the whole screen .HELP PLZ | 23:56 |
| Blaidd | slug: I'm having the problem with other hardware devices too. is it likely to still be the bios in that case? | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: neither do I, but it sounds like it probably is | 23:57 |
| shamm | hi all | 23:57 |
| ActionParsnip | TNk: you can specify ips if you edit /etc/network/interfaces | 23:57 |
| slug | Blaidd: like what>? | 23:57 |
| shamm | what is equivalent to mstsc.exe for linux that allows me to log into windows machines? | 23:57 |
| eXapid | Hood: Try a alternative pdf viewer to print, you might have better luck then cups | 23:57 |
| ActionParsnip | TNk: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 23:57 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: also I think you don't have to worry to much about open ports, because of the way things are done | 23:57 |
| quantum | is there a difference if i echo /foo/bar or just manually edit it? | 23:58 |
| Blaidd | slug: i have tuner cards that are doing the same thing, and every once in a while my nic card does too | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: with Linux above | 23:58 |
| Hoodman2 | eXapid is there soming else you use as a pdf print server? | 23:58 |
| TNk | ActionPasnip, Thanks, I'll check out that page. | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | TNk: its a real easy file to edit | 23:58 |
| slug | what does it do..? | 23:58 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: Yeah...Also, the restrictive mode should close them down by itself, right? | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | TNk: your page is pretty much the same | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | TNk: make sure you add the name servers to /etc/resolv.conf | 23:58 |
| slug | shamm: terminal server client | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | mnaines: I guess so, but your firewall questions maybe you will get better replys to them in ##linux or ##networking | 23:58 |
| mnaines | sebsebseb: Yeah...I'll go there later | 23:59 |
| ActionParsnip | TNk: you will need to change the eth0 to wlan0 / ath0 or whatever your wifi adapter is named as | 23:59 |
| Blaidd | slug: for the harddrives, it will switch drives from hda to hdb.. for the tuner cards it will switch which tuner card is on which "device", and with the nic card it will swtich from eth0 to eth1 and so forth | 23:59 |
| eXapid | Hoodman: sorry but I dont, but im quite sure there would be other alternatives out there | 23:59 |
