[00:00] wfiuewfew, no, a window pops up asking you what to do? But, what kind of malware? Windows malware doesn't work in Linux. [00:00] wfiuewfew: it should scann the content of your CD and ask you what to do unles you disabled that [00:00] GhotiPhud, maybe try disabling ipv6 [00:00] wfiuewfew, ubuntu asks you what you want to do with the cd [00:00] check for device, play around with the program panv, its only me 4th day with ubuntu [00:00] same here.. [00:00] i was on debian before... [00:00] !virus | wfiuewfew [00:00] wfiuewfew: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [00:00] but i don't know why i moved to ubuntu... [00:01] Thanks, I got a window that the cd has packages and I clicked "No" -- so there is no risk? [00:01] panv i was on windows 7 before ;) [00:01] lol [00:01] ok [00:01] welcome to life [00:02] wfiuewfew: packages? you mean Debs? what kind of CD? [00:02] life is hard, i want windows to hold my hand again [00:02] wfiuewfew, even if it was a windows cd with windows exe files, it wouldn't do a thing to your system [00:02] sebsebseb: yes, debs. The cd is from a questionable source [00:02] lol LoCoBoi187 [00:03] has anyone here tried atmosphir? [00:03] ;] [00:03] wfiuewfew: a questionable source. Do say more... [00:03] wfiuewfew: well malicous debs shoudn't be installed [00:03] wfiuewfew: No, that's not a problem. Ubuntu detected that the CD you inserted had a repository on it, and asked if you wanted to enable that repositoriy [00:03] Thanks, it was supposed to be a documents cd, so I was surprised to see the deb warning [00:04] hello I have a problem on my januty system [00:04] wfiuewfew, and in general, I think it would be a pain to package malware for linux... [00:04] I installed the group tab compiz plugin from GIT and now emerald is fighting with metacity [00:05] Hello. I am using wine and jaunty. I used the wow downloader to install the game. The installation went fine. When I go to launch the game it starts downloading and updating the game. The download goes to 70% and then stops. [00:05] they can't make up their mind on which one should be the main window decorator and my computer is friggin lying to me [00:05] I know for a fact it supports compiz [00:05] I connected my dreambox 500s on the ethernet card it sees internet (wich i share from wifi to ethernet) and connects successfully to server but as soon as I type in the dreambox ip in firefox it cant see it... :S anyone? [00:05] I just had a wicked compiz setup [00:05] and now this POS is not working [00:05] what gives ???????? [00:05] !enter | Polt{laptop} [00:05] Polt{laptop}: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [00:06] you sure ok [00:06] yeah* [00:06] mmonlsd: start a webserver on the dreambox [00:06] I don't care about that right now [00:06] I wanna know about this problem [00:06] !attitude | Polt{laptop} [00:06] Polt{laptop}: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [00:06] Polt{laptop}: sorry, you're going to care or you're not going to solve the problem. [00:06] Polt{laptop}: Emerald is deprecated, you likely don't mean emerald (not that your question is any less valid, I just don't believe you're using emerald) [00:06] Gnea, anymore infos plz [00:06] * Polt{laptop} contemplates switching to Arch because of the response he's getting when he comes begging for help [00:06] thanks alot Gnea [00:06] panv: pm [00:07] Polt{laptop}: spamming the channel like that isn't a good way to get a good response. [00:07] wfiuewfew: linux malware is pretty rare in fact. If your CD *did* contain malware it would be of some interest to the community. But I'm guessing it just has some reader software on it for the docs. Can you list the contents on http://paste.ubuntu.com ? [00:07] I'm just PO'ed [00:07] big time [00:07] Polt{laptop}: You spreading out your question across six lines or so makes it extremely difficult to help you. We can't help you unless you help us help you. [00:07] Polt{laptop}: well, you don't have the right to take it out on us. [00:07] I would think that at least one of you guys would understand having dealt with linux before [00:07] I'm not taking it out on you guys [00:07] I'm just mad [00:07] Polt{laptop}: You're being rude and unhelpful. Please stop. [00:08] omfg [00:08] Polt{laptop}: yes, you are taking it out on us. Please, go chill out for a bit, then come back to the problem and try again. [00:08] So if I did not allow the package manager to start I would be safe from any (unlikely) malware that the debs might contain? is that corrrect? [00:08] Polt{laptop}: If you think Arch will give you better support, by all means switch back... [00:08] wfiuewfew: The packages won't install themselves, simply adding knowledge of them to your package cache won't hurt [00:08] somedays I almost prefer the Debian view of telling people to RTFM [00:09] is this right? apps developers may make .rpm/.deb/etc to put on their site, but it's ubuntu/fedora/etc are the ones who's responsible to put and test apps packages in synaptic? [00:09] lanzelloth, correct [00:09] in screen, what's this white on red number with a ! after it? [00:09] If I have an Ubuntu 9.04 ISO is there any way I can burn that ISO to a CD but also have a folder for a .deb file or two on the CD? [00:09] mmonlsd: not sure, never ran linux on a dreamcast before... check to see if apache is running [00:09] ok you are right I will stop using emerald just for you guys [00:09] Halitech, ok cool [00:09] I'm never using that crapware again [00:09] Halitech: sometimes we do, but we're *nicer* about it... [00:09] Halitech: I followed http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-disable-ipv6-in-ubuntu.html to disable ipv6, but there was no improvement [00:09] lanzelloth: The app people who package them can put them in the repos, there's a procedure for getting stuff into Universe (it's pretty easy) [00:10] losher, some people need to be told bluntly though [00:10] Gnea, ok thanx very much, I'll experiment a little more, I hope I find a solution. Cheerios :D [00:10] GhotiPhud, bummer, [00:10] losher: thanks for the offer, I have looked into it and it seems the cd included evince. Thanks for the help [00:10] lanzelloth: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages === drmrhorse is now known as DrMrHorse [00:11] lanzelloth, it's more like people make C source code. Other people compile and package the executable. However that may not be accurate for everything since a lot of programs are not made in C. [00:11] Flannel, oh ok ic, so only main is being mantained by ubuntu [00:12] lanzelloth: no, "ubuntu" is a community. Main and restricted are supported by canonical, with universe and multiverse being their community supported counterparts [00:12] !components | lanzelloth [00:12] lanzelloth: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [00:12] kfizz: not easily. You could 'unpack' the iso, add files to it, then 'repack' it. But it's not straightforward to do so because you have to mess around a bit to make the new iso bootable... [00:12] Halitech: haha, is that your final answer? [00:13] wfiuewfew: ok, that's pretty much what I expected it would turn out to be... [00:13] GhotiPhud, still thinking, can I call a friend or ask the audience? 8] [00:13] All, thanks again [00:13] <_jay_> Hey all, I can't open a cd in jaunty that I burned on my macbook, it says I don't have permission, and I can't change the permissions [00:14] kfizz: You'd have to remaster the CD to add those deb files (there's already a small repo on the CD, you'd just be adding to it), which is less than trivial, but easy enough if you want to [00:14] _jay_: is the CD mounted? [00:14] Halitech: have you already used your 50/50? [00:14] _jay_: are you part of the cdrom group? [00:14] losher, thanks, that's what I figured. I just want to use Ubuntu live and idk if there's enough RAM on the computer to hold the program I want to download. [00:14] <_jay_> yes [00:14] Flannel, what program would you suggest to do that? [00:14] _jay_: yes to what? me or sukuri? [00:14] GhotiPhud, yeah, that was the shot about disabling ipv6 [00:14] <_jay_> there is an orange icon a box with an x next to the folder name [00:14] kfizz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization [00:15] How can I burn an ISO without Brasero? [00:15] kfizz: The *latter* one is really what you're doing, since you're not fiddling with the casper image (the liveCD) unless you want to have that program pre-installed when you boot [00:15] m0r0n: k3b [00:15] <_jay_> I assume by mounted you mean it shows up on the desktop [00:16] Flannel, that means the 'universe' we see will be somewhat different than say fedora's [00:16] kfizz: I've downloaded apps into a running livecd before. Use df -h in a terminal to see if there's room. Unless it's huge and your RAM is tiny, it should work... [00:16] <_jay_> "You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents" [00:16] _jay_: never assume, it causes problems, not solves them. open a terminal and type this: df -h [00:16] m0r0n, k3b, command line [00:17] <_jay_> media/cdrom0 [00:17] lanzelloth: Er... they're entirely different. Ubuntu takes care of Ubuntu's universe. Fedora takes care of Fedoras. While they may contain the same/similar programs, they're really entirely separate [00:17] <_jay_> You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents [00:17] <_jay_> oops [00:17] <_jay_> /dev/sr0 530M 530M 0 100% /media/cdrom0 [00:17] _jay_: and what is the output of this command: id [00:18] <_jay_> uid=1000(jay) gid=1000(jay) groups=4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),123(admin),124(sambashare),1000(jay) [00:18] _jay_, no need to spam [00:18] !paste | _jay_ [00:18] _jay_: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic [00:18] vocx: he didn't spam. [00:18] <_jay_> eh? [00:18] vocx: that was one line, not several. pay attention. [00:18] <_jay_> ah [00:19] vocx: he didn't spam, that was one line and he's going through the help of someone in the room [00:19] Flannel, right, that's what I meant. So if a university hosts both ubuntu and fedora repositories it has a lot of redundant applications in different forms of packages? [00:19] Gnea, sukuri I don't mean spam literally, more like "a bit too much post"... [00:19] _jay_: okay, if you type: cd /media/cdrom0 and then ls, do you get a listing or does it tell you 'permission denied'? [00:19] <_jay_> I'll use the pastebin, np [00:20] Hi. I'm a seasoned Linux user, not very well versed in Ubuntu. I'd like to use RAID1 + encrypted loopback on a 9.04 host. Is lvm (for RAID1) + losetup (for encrypted loopback) the way to go, or should I use something else? I could find several guides on the matter, but most seem fairly old (8.04 and below). Thanks. === petur is now known as peturIngi [00:20] does anyone have any tips for getting openmoko to run on a palm tx? [00:20] lanzelloth: Correct, for that matter, if a university hosts Ubuntu and Debian repositories, there's a bunch of overlap (sometimes almost entirely identical) but they're kept entirely separate. [00:20] vocx: okay, when it's more than 2 lines in a row, it's considered spam. if it's just one or two lines at a time, like _jay_ was doing, it's NOT spam. got it? [00:20] Hi, is there much diffrence between Ubuntu Server 8.10 and 9.04 ? [00:20] hello [00:20] <_jakob_> peturIngi: nýrri pakkar bara [00:21] peturIngi: yes. [00:21] _jakob_: takk [00:21] im connecting my motorola w375 but it does not appear as usb or anything [00:21] Gnea, posted text seemed like output from the terminal. Unexperienced users routinely post a lot of that text. I was just being overly cautious. [00:21] peturIngi: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 [00:21] Flannel, ok cool lol, I was just thinking about the big server room in my uni's math building. Thanks for the answers [00:21] GhotiPhud, did you reboot after making the changes? [00:22] vocx: thanks, but there's no need, since it's unwise to give people the incorrect idea. [00:22] lanzelloth: yes, and you typicall can't use fedora binaries on ubuntu or vice-versa. And if you think that's wasteful, take a look at www.distrowatch.com. There are over a 100 distros... [00:22] peturIngi: er... nevermind, I though it would have a changelog in the "release notes" [00:22] somehow my terminal has remapped paste to e, anyone know how to remap back to ctrl+shift+v ?? [00:22] little one got ahold of the keyboard for a minute [00:22] How do I setup Ubuntu 9.04 so when a user w/o a homedir logs in it gets created? [00:22] Halitech: I did indeed... I know this was the result of an upgrade about 2 weeks ago [00:22] <_jay_> and, when I double click the folder and close the permission denied box, the folder disappears from the file browser and I get the spinning circle icon in the browser window and the pointer [00:22] joako: should do that by default [00:22] !shortcut | amites [00:22] amites: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts [00:23] why am i not able to use ls via ssh, It issues: ls: illegal option -- - what command should I use instead? [00:23] amites: It does not, but user is defined in LDAP not locally [00:23] peturIngi: almost no important differences, except that 9.04 is less stable, in my opinion... [00:23] GhotiPhud, what's it showing for ifconfig now? [00:23] _jay_: did you try the ls? [00:23] if I wanted to create a launcher to stop a service, something equivalent to "/etc/init.d/service stop" , what would I type as the command for the launcher? [00:23] So, I just recently installed a copy of 8.04 LTS, but I've run into some serious issues with missing packages. (Network-manager, and either hal-device-manager or gnome-device-manager) Due to this, I have no way to connect to the internet, with my knowledge. Does anyone know why these packages would be missing? [00:23] <_jay_> ls? [00:23] coolcat: sounds like your command line is malformed. Care to share it? [00:23] thanks Flannel and losher for your help [00:24] _jay_: okay, if you type: cd /media/cdrom0 and then ls, do you get a listing or does it tell you 'permission denied'? [00:24] joako: hmm.... when user is created locally it does, suppose a bash script would do it though I'm not sure how to implement [00:24] _jay_, you can also take a screen shot of your desktop, and post it on the net. That's better than describing everything literally. [00:24] vocx: not always. [00:24] ubotto / gnea: it's not system wide, just in terminal [00:24] amites: What I was using with CentOS clients was a config that creates a homedir if it did not already exsist, I am looking for that same config for Ubuntu [00:25] Halitech: posted on my thread [00:25] losher, I can't imagine the size of even a single distro repository. I'm gonna try installing everything in synaptic just to see how big [00:25] amites: does it happen with a new terminal?

[00:30] thank you so much [00:30] metalf8801, would be wget [00:30] losher, I was just wondering how big the universe repos is. But now synaptic is frozen I'm worried if I kill it, it'll break whatever aptitude/synaptic uses to keep track of all the applications [00:30] _jay_: okay, that looks right... wonder why it's telling you denied... [00:30] that been driving me nuts [00:30] _jay_: can you pastebin the output of this: ls -l /media/cdrom0/ [00:31] coolcat: I thought you said you were using ssh?

[00:32] Halitech: thank you very much [00:32] lanzelloth, considering there are 5 dvds for each version and 3 main version of each release, its alot [00:32] _jay_: ah, now it's apparant! when the mac burned the disc, the incorrect permissions were set to the files. you will need to access them as root. [00:32] ^cheeky: you dont have your permissions right [00:32] _jay_: ... or reburn the disc with corrected permissions [00:32] coolcat: so the ssh runs and you are successfully logged in to the target system?

[00:37] jaunty [00:38] hi [00:38] vocx: when i'm done upgrading to 8.04 can i continue to upgrade to the most recent stable version? [00:38] please i'm stuck with this [00:38] bilbogus: i will take a look [00:38] i already have restricted formats installed [00:38] Esteri, yes, but first 8.10, then 9.04, [00:38] hey my touch keys on the hp laptop works when i move the volume slider, but when i move the slider the picture shows the volume moving up and down but it does not change the volume, how can i fix this? [00:39] Polterge|st: interesting. emerald is nothing more than providing themes for compiz. what sort of problems has it been giving you? [00:39] so then i'll be updating all night. [00:39] well it conflicts with metacity [00:39] they battle eachother [00:39] anyone? [00:39] i want to make a rescursively copy of a folders content, including hidden files and folders, but because cp -r recursively looks at any folder, when it reaches the .. hardlink, it will open it and copy the parent directory of what i'm trying to copy, how can i prevent this? [00:39] bilbogus: it does not help [00:39] Polterge|st: I don't understand. metacity and compiz are mutually exclusive. [00:39] So, I figure there's a problem if Ubuntu doesn't have lshw as a command? [00:39] I try to run "sudo init 3" on Ubuntu 9.04 but the machine stays on the desktop!? [00:39] first one disables then the other disables and my machine lies to me pretty much telling me it cannot enable desktop effects yet I know for a fact it can and it is a brand new vid card so it wouldn't be that [00:40] webbi, according to here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecommendedHardware it works but they don't mention how or with what software [00:40] I think my install disk isn't working right. [00:40] Halitech: hmmm [00:40] Polterge|st: so you've made a new user account and logged in with it to see if the same thing happens? [00:40] Esteri, I imagine this time of the year the servers are fast. Wait for October (new version) and you'll take forever to upgrade. [00:41] to be honest I know that even if I did that I would have to migrate all of my settings back over [00:41] webbi, have you tried moto4lin? [00:41] Halitech: yes but it request me a device path, which i dont have [00:41] and I'm not going to waste the time doing that over something that can be fixed probably with something as simple as uninstalling emerald [00:41] Polterge|st: that's not the point. the point is: where is the REAL problem? with the system or with the user account? [00:41] it is most likely in the system [00:41] hey my touch keys on the hp laptop works when i move the volume slider, but when i move the slider the picture shows the volume moving up and down but it does not change the volume, how can i fix this? [00:41] Hrm.... [00:41] Polterge|st: then stop complaining, go uninstall it and be done with it. don't waste my time or anyone elses. [00:41] Hi I just did an upgrade from jaunty to karmic and now I get errors in update manager when trying to remove install pdns-recursor, I have tried remove --force=yes any other suggestions on how to remove pdns-recursor from my system? [00:42] webbi, it should tell you how to find it (been a while since I tried it) [00:42] I'm missing a ton of packages. [00:42] how do i play avi files? [00:42] This is a problem.

[00:42] hi all can anyone help me with a problem with ubuntu server after installation [00:42] I'm not picking on you [00:42] Polterge|st: if you're going to sit there and assume to know what you're doing, when clearly you do not, and then tell the people that try to help you that their help is wrong, then you have no place asking for help in the first place. [00:42] Hi All, is there an alternative to GridMove for Linux?

[00:44] rebgil: #ubuntu+1 they'll be able to help you [00:44] bilbogus, isn't it networkmanager instead of network-manager? [00:45] thanks [00:45] lanzelloth: Not in 8.04. [00:45] can anyone help with ubuntu server? [00:45] !ask | adam [00:45] adam: 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. :-) [00:45] how do i play avi files [00:45] why is it such a pain to install Google Earth under Ubuntu x64? :( [00:46] Halitech thankyou [00:46] lanzelloth: Although, looking at Synaptic, I seems to be missing some very important packages. === ubuntu_ is now known as apoleo12 [00:46] Slingshooter, I've posted you the link on multimedia at least twice, have you read it? [00:46] yes [00:46] Hi all [00:46] i have restricted formats installed [00:46] i told you [00:46] Slingshooter, it should have the info you need [00:46] Got a grub question for all of you... Tried to install Ubuntu 9.04 Server, using a separate /boot partition, with everything else on an encrypted RAID. When it's done, and I boot, I get Grub Error 17. I don't even get the grub menu or the Grub loading countdown. Most of the resources I've read suggest changing options from the Grub menu, but since I don't even get the grub menu, I can't do this. Any ideas, anyone? [00:46] Wondering if it's worth switching from ath5k to my card's NDIS drivers [00:47] Would that improve performance and lower power usage, or would it be a net negative gain? [00:47] Slingshooter, avi is just a container for a video file. The important part is what codec it uses. Playing avi means nothing. [00:47] ive just installed ubuntu server 9.04 and the installation went fine, after it completes it needs to reboot, after the reboot it goes through bios and i dont see a grub loader and then i get a blank screen with a flashing cursor at the top left, it stays like this.... anyone help please [00:48] Wow. sounds like that's a recurring problem. [00:49] adam: Your install is probably corrupted, from what I know. [00:49] anyone else using Google Earth here? [00:49] Hey everyone... [00:49] adam: Off the top of my head, I'd try reinstalling. [00:49] under x64 platform? [00:49] Rockj: what's your question? [00:49] I installed ubuntu before, and have formatted since [00:49] Halitech: if i click in update list on moto4lin, it appear there, but it try to use /dev/acm0 and it does not exist [00:49] adam, are you sure you had the server install? sounds more like a bad desktop install [00:49] Gnea: I have mad issues with installing Google Earth [00:49] I want to reinstall now, but the install process (Mainly partitioning) doesnt seem the same - any idea why??? [00:49] Rockj: such as? [00:49] bilbogus its not corrupt, ive tried re-installing it a couple of times [00:49] it simply segfaults [00:50] why do people ask stupid questions its the server install for definate [00:50] and I also thought that there was a googleearth deb under multiverse repository. atleast some 4.x version [00:50] webbi, I havent tried to use moto4lin in ages and it didn't work for me either so I gave up [00:50] Rockj: the installation or the binary? [00:50] hi there all i am having trouble getting a usb dvb-t device from Tevion to work can any advise3 [00:50] adam: Your install disk might be corrupt. [00:50] Got a grub question for all of you...

I don't even get the grub menu or the Grub loading countdown. Most of the resources I've read suggest changing options from the Grub menu, but since I don't even get the grub menu, I can't do this. Any ideas, anyone? [00:50] Can someone explain how to use SVN to download something? [00:51] Gnea: Ive tried both the binary manual install method, and googleearth-package [00:51] bilbogus its not belive me ive used it before on a server at work [00:51] Hi All, is there an alternative to GridMove for Linux? I think there is something you can get for compiz but Im not sure [00:51] Rockj: does it segfault when you use the apt command, or when you type googleearth? [00:51] totem does not ask for a codec [00:51] adam: Well, I'm fresh out of ideas. [00:51] googleearth :/ [00:51] Slingshooter, try vlc [00:51] that's why Im wondering if anyone else had it working under x64.. [00:51] Rockj: no, it's in medibuntu [00:51] !medibuntu | Rockj [00:51] Rockj: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [00:51] the installation runs and completes without a hitch [00:51] i think i did, but ill giv it a try [00:52] Gnea: aha. Ill go add that reppository then. [00:52] adam: That doesn't mean it isn't missing some important files. [00:52] adam, what type of machine are you installing on? [00:52] adam: nv-sata chip ? i've had problem installing server, desktop works fine [00:52] adam: It can't tell what got installed correctly while installing. [00:53] adam: I dunno, though. [00:53] :) [00:53] halitech its a brand new system i build yesterday its intel dual core 3gz with 80gb sata drive for the os and a raided pair of 250gb disks for storage [00:53] 2 gb ram too [00:54] Having weird Google Earth Problems. Install went fine, but I think a GE auto-update screwed everything up. The globe is fine at all zoom levels, but placemark info flashes on and off intermittently, and the drop-down menus do likewise. Any help would be much appreciated. [00:54] hi there all i am having trouble getting a usb dvb-t device from Tevion to work can any advise [00:54] So, now I have a question: Without network manager, how do I configure a connection like wlan0 for use with ifup and ifdown? [00:54] my volume controller disappeared from the systray, how do i get it back? [00:54] bilbogus, you could install wcid. [00:54] Gnea: nerdrage, it still segfaults even after using the medibuntu package. I guess there is something funky with current 5.x version available for download [00:55] blame google, makes me hate them even more ^^; [00:55] antone? [00:55] *anyone? [00:55] trident: does that package come on the disc? I have no connection to the internet on it. [00:55] Rockj: did you make sure to remove all previous versions of googleearth first? completely? [00:55] !please | LoCoBoi187 [00:55] LoCoBoi187: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience [00:55] having googled a number of times there is a lot of talk about ati graphics cards causing the same issue, so it might be that, is there a way to boot the os using a default very basic graphics setting? like a test mode or something [00:55] LoCoBoi187: right-click on the panel, add to panel, then select the volume control [00:56] adam, do you have a live cd you could boot and see if the partitions are set up correctly? [00:56] Gnea: aye, --purge is a wonderfull option. Ill redo it just to make sure and do a couple of find's to make sure its all gone [00:56] bilbogus, Er, no. Why did you delete the network-manager? [00:56] Rockj: ok [00:56] trident: My 8.04 LTS disk didn't install it. [00:56] only a live kubuntu cd [00:56] how do i get permissions to delete files on a partition i've mounted? [00:56] adam, that will work [00:56] trident: I have a feeling I'm gonna need to find a new disc and reinstall. [00:56] how can i check the partitions from a live cd? [00:56] bilbogus, if you can get to another ubuntu machine, Synaptic generates a download script which you can run to install it. [00:56] ubuntu is driving me nuts not letting me delete files [00:56] adam, sudo fdisk -l [00:57] bilbogus, but it should install that, if it isn't there, I'd use a different disk. [00:57] adam: use the e2fsck command [00:57] whats worse is that iactually said it delete 5.9GB of files and i still only have 1.9GB free [00:57] i'm about done with ubuntu [00:57] trident: How would I go about getting the package off a different Ubuntu system? [00:57] will that show the partitions for the actual disks or just the live session [00:57] stupid permissions out the wazoo [00:57] Chakravanti: empty trashcan ? [00:57] thank you gnea [00:57] it's empty [00:57] trident: Can I just put the package right onto a USB drive? [00:57] gonna go try it now brb [00:58] adam, should show all drives connected [00:58] And install off it in Synaptic on the broken system? [00:58] adam: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda will show you the partitions for the first hard disk on the system [00:58] bilbogus: You could, but you have to make sure that it dosen't depend on something (require another package you don't have.) [00:58] adam: look at the output of the dmesg command to make sure you have the right argument [00:58] Chakravanti, what does df -h show? [00:58] Gnea: still the same, I guess google doesnt like x64 for their google earth app :-| [00:58] LoCoBoi187: cheers [00:58] trident: Is there a way to generate a list of dependencies for a specific package? [00:59] trident: So I can just get them all? [00:59] http://www.pastebin.org/13521 [00:59] bilbogus: You can do it in recent synaptics... [00:59] Rockj: hrm, isn't there a way to run it with 32bit libs? [00:59] my audio works for everything but video players is there somthing i need ? [00:59] bilbogus: I can generate one for you though, if you want. [00:59] trident: I don't really have ready access to another disk, so this is my best bet. [00:59] trident: Thanks! [00:59] also is there a temp monitor or somthing system monitor with temp [00:59] Rockj: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=544064 [00:59] somebody wanna help me with some curl command? [01:00] bilbogus: You'll have to give me a few moments, on my slow computer. [01:00] bilbogus: The main problem is that you might install a package too new, because I run 9.04. [01:00] Gnea: ia32* libs are installed. :-/ [01:01] trident: That would be really helpful. Eh, I'll figure it out, just gimme the list. [01:01] these posts are also history from the stone age (2006) ... much have happen since then. [01:01] How do i get permissions to delete files? [01:01] bilbogus: You'll have to give me a few min. [01:01] i'm about to rm -rf ubuntu [01:02] Chakravanti, do you know where the files are that you want to delete? [01:02] rm -rf root doesn't work =D [01:02] yup [01:02] Chakravanti: hit Alt - F2, type in "gksudo nautilus", then you can delete whatever you want.

Jag försöker följa http://en.kioskea.net/faq/sujet-1089-sharing-internet-connection-using-bridge-mode [01:16] bilbogus: ok then try typing "nohup nm-applet &" [01:16] maco, hey maco, still going to olf? [01:16] sorry [01:16] Anyone not talking technical [01:16] mom_: yes, im one of the speakers, remember? [01:16] lanzelloth: Want the latest unsupported kernal/drivers? New packages? Cool new junk that might not work? Or, coding and need something funky? Like that. [01:16] maco, on friday? [01:16] mom_: That's... strange. I can't kill init. Not even with sig KILL. [01:16] Hi, i am having problem with VPN client connection routes. In the earlier versions of Ubuntu the VPN client was a bit different ... and had option to put for which networks to use VPN connection. Now all my traffic is routed through VPN network. Anyone knows which option in new VPN client would fix this? Thanks. [01:16] !se | Koenigsegg_ [01:16] Koenigsegg_: Svensk Ubuntu- och Kubuntusupport hittar du i #ubuntu-se resp. #kubuntu-se [01:16] mom_: im a saturday speaker but im helping setup on friday [01:16] Gnea: http://paste.ubuntu.com/262238/ , does this mean I have to fetch debugging package of libncurses, ld, bash and so on? all those libs? [01:17] MaximumGarlic, yes they probably had another idiot like me think of doing it [01:17] maco: nonup command not found. :( [01:17] mom_, cool! well, i should be there saturday [01:17] Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this interfaces file, http://paste.ubuntu.com/262237/ ? I'm trying to follow http://en.kioskea.net/faq/sujet-1089-sharing-internet-connection-using-bridge-mode === r0bby_ is now known as r0bby [01:17] so i guess you cant force quit init [01:17] well . . the power button [01:17] Hello, I need help with my Wifi, it's not that I can't make it work, I'm just unable to connect via the secured network. [01:18] Is there a driver or package for a D-Link DWL-G650 available anywhere? [01:18] It's a protected network requiring a username and password. [01:18] mom_: Sounds likely. :) Too bad it doesn't work, it really should. I don't like exceptions. [01:18] Rockj: hard to say. try the gdb method and see if the results are similar or not. [01:19] Gnea: wiki says that I need to make sure I have the debugging packages installed with debug symbols :/ [01:20] I'm trying to figure out why Totem doesn't show me the brightness slider in display preferences. Can someone help me? [01:20] maco: Is nonup something that should work in 8.04? I'm getting a command not found error. [01:20] Gnea: Ill check into it later, it soon 2.30am and I need to wake up early to get at uni. So ill be heading to bed for now. *slaps google for stupid segfault* [01:20] bilbogus: nohup not nonup [01:20] bilbogus: you mean 'noHub' ? [01:20] bilbogus: you mean 'noHup' ? [01:20] trident523, I guess, but still that's mostly again getting your hardware to run faster than using the generic stuff. Well, maybe not... it's just that I find it kinda annoying that if you tell someone you use ubuntu it won't be as cool as if you used slackware [01:20] Rockj: ah, good luck [01:20] time to get a better font "_ [01:21] bilbogus: er but dont capitalize like Dr_Willis did :P [01:21] its nohup i just saw it in a linux review video :) [01:21] maco: Now I feel like an idiot. :) === ubuntu__ is now known as imrannnnnn === imrannnnnn is now known as imrann [01:21] bilbogus: it happens to everybody :) [01:21] Hello.... [01:21] I have installed ubuntu before [01:21] but i have formatted since then [01:22] maco: Oh dear... cannot run command "nm-applet": No such file or directory. [01:22] highlight? [01:22] maco: Am I looking at a reinstall here? [01:22] anyone here using eclipse 3.5 cdt? [01:22] and now when I try to do it, the only method showing up is to manually partition, and that will delete all my data. [01:22] im with /dev/null [01:22] lanzelloth: And? I'll take supported stuff over new junk every day. [01:22] I'm want to make a new Linux kernel where you can spawn "Warewolf processes", that you can only kill with kill -s FIRE, or kill -s SILVER. [01:22] lanzelloth: the other distros don't get in the way as much as ubuntu does for when you know exactly what you want, it's easier to build a system how you want it than take away all the cruft ubuntu/fedora/etc devs want you to have and add what you want [01:23] Im looking for how to do the "Auto Partition" thing where it has a slider and you set how much space you want for windows and how much space for ubuntu... Any help? [01:23] *Wereworf [01:23] maco, which level of the LPIC are you taking? [01:23] werewolf* [01:23] imrann: Look at GParted [01:23] Curses. I have failed in my unfailing. Thank you for unfailing me, DigitalKiwi. [01:24] you are welcome [01:24] !gparted | imrann [01:24] imrann: 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 [01:24] Anyone know why totem doesn't show the brightness slider for me in preferences? [01:24] vigo, I dont want to download extra software, i already tried EASUS Partition manager didnt work right [01:24] Got a grub question for all of you... Tried to install Ubuntu 9.04 Server, using a separate /boot partition, with everything else on an encrypted RAID. When it's done, and I boot, I get Grub Error 17. I don't even get the grub menu or the Grub loading countdown. Most of the resources I've read suggest changing options from the Grub menu, but since I don't even get the grub menu, I can't do this. Any ideas, anyone? [01:24] that and it can be nice not having to wait 6 months to have the newest softwares ;) [01:25] mom_: 1 [01:25] <_tj> how to i make open ssh start when my pc starts [01:25] DinkyDogg: you can get to the menu.lst via a live cd. Check the grub homepage to see what error 17 means... [01:25] maco, wow i hope i dont have to be as smart as you to pass [01:25] mom_: i was going to take it last year [01:25] mom_: i overslept [01:25] http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting [01:26] imrann: I know thet GParted has a GUI, it really is not that large, you can load it on a floppy or USB and use it. [01:26] maco, ah ok well its in the afternoon i think [01:26] Maco: Is it bad if it sats nm-applet doesn't exist? [01:26] well 11am [01:26] says* [01:26] Dr_Willis, from what I've read, it means grub can't read from the partition... which is strange, considering i have a specific /boot partition (formatted to ext3). Also, the documentation I've read seems to imply that I should only get this error when I actually go to boot a partition. I can't even get that far - no Grub menu, and no loading countdown. [01:26] bilbogus: are you sure network-manager-gnome (i think thats the name) is installed? [01:26] mom_: 11am for the first test. i think it was 10am last year [01:26] maco: apt-get says it is. [01:27] bilbogus: sudo aptitude reinstall? [01:27] DinkyDogg: grub is just the kind of tool where ya got to check the docs and learn how it works.. Perhaps it got installed to sda1 and not the mbr of 'sda' like it normally does. [01:27] sudo apt-get remove window$ [01:28] maco, ok well blink once with you left eye for A, twice with left eye for B. once with right eye for C, and twice with right eye for D [01:28] Dr_Willis, i'll keep trying. Thanks. [01:28] maco: and then try nohup again? [01:29] vigo, how is that any different from something such as easus partition manage [01:29] does anyone here use tpb with ubuntu? [01:30] maco: It's all still failing. I think I'm gonna try reinstalling. [01:30] i havent gotten to the second test material yet, maybe ill just do part I [01:30] nadar: tpb? [01:30] anstice: the pirate bay [01:31] nadar, there is a torrent client installed [01:31] nadar: whats a web site have to do with it? :) [01:31] nadar, by default [01:31] righht but that isnt working for somereason [01:31] try Deluge [01:31] the color balance settings aren't available in totem for me. Anyone have any ideas why not? [01:31] Theres sevearl torrent clients you can use. clarify whats not working? [01:32] nadar, are there enough seeders? [01:32] when i pick a file even though there are thousands of leechers and seeders i cant get anything [01:32] my software index is broken, how do i fix it? [01:32] ya i tried downloading the top file [01:32] nadar, check firewall settings [01:32] nadar: Have you forwarded ports? [01:32] Hi, I was wondering how I can play video's online in Mozilla Ubuntu when I need a MMS plug in? [01:32] mom_: where can i check firewall settings? [01:33] nadar, depends on your router [01:33] Hey everyone I'm having a really strange problem... cant unzip a .zip file... moment I'll paste the terminal output [01:33] jeffery1: You could run the whole rigamarole in wine. I kid, I kid. :P [01:34] $ unzip nexuiz-251.zip [01:34] Archive: nexuiz-251.zip [01:34] End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not [01:34] a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.

[01:34] the last disk(s) of this archive. [01:34] No one's had problems with the color balance sliders on the totem movie player going away? [01:34] Is there any way to download the MMS plug in in Ubuntu? [01:35] jeffrey1: MMS? [01:35] jeffery1: The general way to do Windows in a Linux setting would be Wine, but I can see how that would be impractical. [01:35] erer [01:35] jeffery1: I don't know of a more specific way to do it, unfortunately. [01:36] The requested plugins are: [01:36] Microsoft Media Server (MMS) protocol source [01:36] mom_: it cant have anything to do with the router. i used to download torrents on windows and the router's settings havent changed since then [01:36] How would I do wine? [01:36] Haha, im not too experienced with this stuff... as you can tell [01:36] is there a way to amplify multiple files at once? perhaps with a terminal command for audacity or something? [01:36] eu [01:37] jeffery1: Do you have Wine installed? [01:37] I dont think so, since I have never heard of it [01:37] because i have 60+ songs that are a bit quiet, and they all needed to be boosted about the same amount [01:37] nadar: Did you have a static i.p set in windows? [01:37] do i get it in the applications window? [01:37] i am trying to edit folders in my ipod touch through openssh but it says Permission Denied when i try to delete or add a folder. What should i do? ive edited in it before [01:38] jeffery1: go to terminal, and try "sudo apt-get install wine". [01:38] zopiac: You want something like normalizing except you're going to want to manually adjust the volumes. Google 'ubuntu normalize' [01:38] okay, ill give that a try [01:38] jeffery1: You're okay with downloading a large application? [01:38] jeffery1: you have to add the Wine repository first [01:38] anstice: i guess? all i know is that bittorrent worked fine when i used windows [01:38] yeah ,thats no problem [01:38] The video I'm trying to watch in the totem movie player is too dark and I want to increase the brightness but there's no brightness slider in the preferences menu like there's supposed to be. Anyone know why? [01:39] Hi there. [01:39] MaGicMaX, I got it to compile :) [01:39] I have a problem that the forums haven't been able to resolve. [01:40] mechdave: great [01:40] Bilbogus, where is termonal do i type that? [01:40] Heather: thanks a lot :) [01:40] I have a usb Broadcom Bluetooth receiver, and I can't seem to get it to work in Jaunty. [01:40] Any ideas? [01:40] nadar: Did you ever have to open ports in windows? If you did and you set it to the static i.p of your windows computer which has now possibly changed then that could be it. That's the only thing I can think of. [01:40] I have a problem that so far no one here has been able to answer and I've been googling for a long time to no avail because it's a hard problem to google for [01:40] Ok here is what you do... I shall paste it to pastebin [01:41] mechdave: ready when you are, if you want you can reply to my post with the directions if its easyer [01:41] Heather: What's the problem?

I'm running 9.04 [01:41] in crontab [01:41] Anstice: In the totem movie player I'm trying to watch a video but it's too dark so I go to the preferences menu and there's no brightness slider like there's supposed to be [01:42] MaGicMaX, http://pastebin.com/f11067fbb <-- this is the kernel code === Esteri is now known as I-hop [01:42] MaGicMaX, Now make a directory in your home directory called k10temp_module [01:42] mechdave: what do i do with that?

[01:43] anstice: no as soon as i clicked open with BitTorrent it worked [01:43] heather - I don't think totem has brightness controls - mine doesn't [01:43] mechdave: which files? [01:43] MaGicMaX, the two pastebin files [01:43] Bluey: Yes it does. Google it. [01:43] alguem sabe como faco pra inserir minha localizacao no site do ubuntu-br ?? [01:43] i just opened it - and it doesnt have that... [01:43] nadar: That's odd. Which client were you using in Windows? [01:43] Bluey: I've had it in totem before countless times [01:44] Bluey: Then you're having the same problem I'm having [01:44] healther - let me look again....

[01:46] guys where are VLC binary files, i want to open something with VLC [01:46] heather - nope no brightness control in my version of totem 2.26.1 [01:46] Anstice: Supposed to be in Preferences - Display [01:46] Bluey: Maybe they removed them, in which case, I'm going to be angry [01:46] MaGicMaX, http://pastebin.com/f6d3285c7 <-- copy the contents of this paste and save it as Makefile [01:46] no [01:46] Heather: well, actually it normalized the music 'down', so they are now even quieter :( used vorbisgain (since the files are oggs) [01:47] harby: Good streaming video playback has been a problem in Linux for a long time. [01:47] Heather: Under where it says Visual Effects? [01:47] hello guys [01:47] Heather -- the removed a bunch of crap in amarok 2.X so I flopped back to 1.4 (like the equaliser) [01:47] zopiac: I told you, you'd need to manually increase the volume [01:47] oh [01:47] as in singularly? [01:47] Anstice: That's where it's supposed to be [01:48] bilbogus, I downloaded wine, what do i do now?! [01:48] bilbogus: the problem still exists? [01:48] So it looks like my only option right now is to increase the brightness for my whole desktop [01:48] mechdave: k i saved the other one too, what should i name that one? [01:48] Heather- yeah that seems to be the case -- [01:48] MaGicMaX, save the other as k10temp.c [01:48] Heather: as in singularly change them each?? [01:48] jeffery1: Open it up, and read the help files, they'll show you how to make it work. [01:48] Anyone get Listen working? [01:48] harby: Yep. [01:48] :) [01:48] Alright, thanks! I appreciate the help!! [01:49] jeffery1: Sure thing! [01:49] where does the PDF go and what filename for the PDF printer installed with jaunty? [01:49] mechdave: so replace it with the first one i had? i already had the k10temp.c from that site before === Onyx_ is now known as Guest31385 [01:50] zopiac: No. [01:50] any back track users ? [01:50] b33m4n: backtrack is not 'ubuntu' [01:50] back track 4 is [01:50] b33m4n: its not 'ubuntu' it has its own support channel [01:51] please dont stop making ubuntu :D [01:51] Its based on, not is [01:51] being 'based on ubuntu' does not make it 'ubuntu' === Guest31385 is now known as Onyx [01:51] MaGicMaX, There is no change to the k10temp.c so you can use the original one if you wish [01:51] i think it's the right place to ask for help with ubuntu and my laptop, may anybody help me?

[01:52] mechdave: k i got em both inside the k10temp_module directory i created in home [01:52] MaGicMaX, Ok now have you got those two in the folder? [01:52] 'ubuntu` [01:52] harby: The whole thing is just jittery and slow, even with all sorts of extra packages. [01:52] mech yep [01:52] mechdave: yep [01:52] hanasaki: by default, it's in your home folder, with whatever name you specify in the "Print..." dialog [01:52] how can I print to PDF and set the filename for output and directory [01:52] bilbogus: i cant even see the video [01:52] MaGicMaX, No worries, now you need to make sure you have build-essentilal and kernel-headers installed [01:52] and some flash headers === McPeter_ is now known as McPeter [01:53] mpontillo: you mean "~"? [01:53] MaGicMaX, sudo apt-get install build-essential [01:53] i think that my ubuntu has problems with flash [01:53] hanasaki: yes, for me there is a "name" and "save in folder" option when I select "Print to File". (for example, when I try to print in Firefox) [01:53] mechdave: done [01:53] harby: There are some firefox addons that'll fix that, just do a quick search. [01:53] hanasaki: ~ is a 'shortcut' for /home/username [01:54] (I was only using the term "home folder" since that is what it's called in the gnome "places" menu) [01:54] MaGicMaX, now the kernel headers is a little more tricky, you need to run uname -r [01:54] MaGicMaX, that will give you the running kernel version [01:54] how do i amplify multiple music files (oggs) at once? [01:55] MaGicMaX, then you just do a sudo apt-get install kernel-headers-"results from uname -r" [01:55] mechdave: 2.6.28-15-generic [01:55] can anyone help me configure my wireless? its turned on but its not being detected [01:55] Anyone here uses and is technically experienced with quake4 on linux? [01:55] no matter what I try I can not get DVDs to function [01:55] MaGicMaX, then you just do a sudo apt-get install kernel-headers-2.6.28-15-generic [01:56] Cynary what about it? [01:56] I installed it today, and it isn't working at all :S [01:56] quake is lovely [01:56] The demo works perfectly. [01:56] mechdave: E: Couldn't find package kernel-headers-2.6.28-15-generic [01:56] The problem is that when it's lading the initial menu it goes into a black screen and it freezes there [01:56] MaGicMaX: if you install linux-headers, that will pull in the correct headers for your current kernel (and any later ones for rebuilding your modules/drivers/etc) [01:56] Cynary maybe im not adept but I do play it, my only problem was sound [01:57] the firefox print to file and type of PDF works.. there is a printer setup in the system that prints to cups:... for a pdf .. this is different and available to all of the linux system.. where does this file print? [01:57] Cynary sorry gtg [01:57] ok [01:57] is there a reason that the latest CUPS (v 1.3.9) on ubuntu 9.0.4 does not have HP PHotosmart D7200 listed? [01:57] hanasaki, look for ~/PDF [01:58] find: `PDF': No such file or directory [01:58] Cynary: downloading it right now to try it out :) [01:58] no matter what i try i can not get dvds to function can someone point me in the right direction? [01:58] does anybody knows why ubuntu 9.04 (to say the truth X) freezes random? [01:58] ok thanks zopiac [01:58] paissad-hp: ? [01:58] MaGicMaX, try sudo apt-get install kernel-headers [01:58] im trying to configure wine 32bit on my amd64 and im getting this error about 32-bit development libraries [01:58] is it a know iussue? [01:58] Cynary: did you use a .run file? if so, how did you install it? [01:59] WTF iPod corrected there to Terence?!? === TexJR is now known as BeautifulLiar [01:59] hanasaki, when i use cups-pdf, the pdf file is created and stored into /home/user/PDF [01:59] You do have the original DVD, right? [01:59] mechdave: http://paste.ubuntu.com/262247/ [01:59] Wrong chat sry [01:59] I used the run file [01:59] MaGicMaX: install linux-headers [01:59] you execute it, install it (the installation is fast and pretty straight forward) [02:00] paissad-hp: there was a gnome popup notification that it "failed" hjow can I check the Queue? [02:00] but to play, you need to have some files that are on the quake4 DVD/CDs [02:00] MaGicMaX, Sorry mate, I got it wrong... it should be linux-headers [02:00] boss_mc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/262247/ [02:00] MaGicMaX, then you just do a sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.28-15-generic [02:00] MaGicMaX: as I said, that will automatically install the correct headers package [02:00] Cynary: ok, but did you sudo run it or just run [02:00] mechdave: http://paste.ubuntu.com/262248/ [02:00] zopiac: I used sudo so I could put symlinks in the /usr/bin directory [02:01] zopiac: but if you don't care about symlinks there, you can do it without sudo [02:01] zopiac: just don't run it immeadiatly after the install (there's an option at the end). I read that some people were having problems with that, because of permissions, not sure why. [02:01] MaGicMaX: that used to work I'm sure, try linux-headers-`uname -r` [02:01] mechdave: i think it worked http://paste.ubuntu.com/262249/ === BlackKnight is now known as Wowbagger [02:02] MaGicMaX, ok now go to your k10temp_module directory and open the Makefile with text editor [02:03] hi, can anyone tell me where is the directory for VLC? , i would like to start a stream with VLC [02:03] MaGicMaX, make sure that there are TAB spaces before all: and clean: [02:03] boss_mc: `uname -r`?

I tried both ways, didn't work. [02:14] MaGicMaX, WOOHOO it is inserted and running!!!

I don't even get to the menu where you can change settings, etc. it freezes almost immediatly [02:16] mechdave: i see a "temp1" active in the applet now :) [02:16] mechdave: i have a quad core though, should there be one for each core? or.. [02:16] Another question: is there any way to save the machine state (like hibernate) - so it restores next time I boot into ubuntu - in the meantime letting me boot into windows etc [02:16] Chun1: The only thing I can recommend right now is to make a post on the forums or see if there is anyone else around that may be able to help you. I usually use the terminal for things that require root access anyway so I never ran into this problem. [02:16] I am connecting to an OpenVPN server using NetworkManager, and it works fine, I am able to see the remote network shares. However, while connected, I am unable to browse the internet. Help?? [02:16] MaGicMaX, I think the temp should show up on each core [02:16] zopiac: however, on the id website, they said the installer alters all the game*.pk4 files ... and there's one in the DVD/CDs, so I'm not sure if we should use the file from the DVD or not (I assume it's the one from the DVD, and although right now I don't remember the exact result of using the one from the installer, I believe it didn't word) [02:16] *work [02:17] Holyjoely: yeah, I will do, thanks. I use the terminal most of the time too, just a timesaver I'd like to see really [02:17] Chun1: there is an option to remember running programs in administration...

I hope that somebody here experienced with grubs and crypttab and such would be kindly and assist me with my issue. I kept trying many things but I get same end-result. :< [02:37] anyknow know of any modprobe bugs in ubuntu 9.04 (CD from mail and download both seg fault) using compaq e500 [02:37] in any case, Cynary, iirc, the settings files for the quake engines are stored in .conf files (probably in a .folder in your home folder) and there should be an option for async in there. however, again, iirc, the quake configuration files re hard tp decipher, but you might be able to look online for help on that [02:37] Guest36562: if it uses flash - you may need to install flash. I normally install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' to get flash and java going. [02:38] Guest36562: try http://www.seamonkey-project.org (mozilla alternate browser to firefox) [02:38] Cynary: or at least all this is true for the open source Q2 engine used for various games, it might have changed, but i doubt it [02:38] dragon: white is a color, you know. [02:38] or Q3 [02:39] Dr_Willis I saw something that said I couldn't install them.. How do I install the extras [02:39] zopiac: Yes, the quake4 files are in .quake4 ... you gave-me an idea now, I'll try copying the config files from the demo to the actual game.

[02:39] Guest36562: also try http://www.adobe.com to download flash (yahoo uses lots of flash content) [02:39] leaf-sheep: Depends on how much physics you've studied. Was my question unclear? [02:39] Its better to use the repos to install flash and java. from what ive seen. [02:39] I have installed the opensourwe flash\ [02:40] Guest36562: opensource flash is still in alpha [02:40] Cynary: however if the game doesnt crash in the demo, pehaps it doesnt have async, and therefore maybe it doesnt have the same setup of the .conf files and not work, but its certainly worth a shot [02:40] mechdave: k how do i edit that though, wheres the file? [02:40] Guest36562: thats not the flash you wanted i imagine. [02:40] MaGicMaX, edit it with sudo gedit /etc/modules [02:41] I have macromedia flash plugin GStreamer ffmpeg video plugin Swfdec Flash player and VLC media player [02:41] anyknow know of any modprobe bugs in ubuntu 9.04 (CD from mail and download both seg fault) using compaq e500 [02:41] How to I add Ubuntu to the Fedora boot loader? [02:41] zopiac: This time it froze earlier xD, so it wasn't a solution, I'll try something I found online about changing the libraries used by the game to the system ones. [02:41] Guest36562: uninstall swfdec flash player, and try adobe flash player reinstall [02:41] Guest36562 uninstall that flash and put the v10 Adobe .so in your plugin dir's for firefox. [02:41] Ubuntu was my primary/sole OS, then I decided to partition 50 GB and install Fedora 11, and their boot loader only shows Fedora. [02:41] dragon: Your question was clear. I looked it up. No you can't have colors as it seems. Since you outpipe the content of ls (ls itself offer color) to less, only the content, not the cosmetics. [02:41] Walker_: edit the proper /boot/grub/menu.lst and add the proper information there. [02:42] Ok [02:42] MaGicMaX, you are doing very well for a newbie, you have just compiled and installed a kernel module, something I didn't do until a couple of years ago and I have been playing with Linux for 10 years :) === `fork is now known as forrk [02:42] mechdave: ok, before i save it, this is what it should look like? http://paste.ubuntu.com/262269/ [02:42] RHorse: like minds think alike lol [02:42] MaGicMaX, correct mate [02:42] mechdave: ya, well.. im being told what to do so i cant take all the credit :P [02:43] hello there can anyone help me plz I don't have CDRom worked when I want to come to ubuntu after I press enter at grub screen it shows me 3 errors and when I am in ubuntu my CDRom doesn't work [02:43] MaGicMaX, now reboot and see what happens [02:43] linux, ;) [02:43] Howdy.

[02:51] Walker_: somebody/thing did. [02:52] Hm... what does it mean? [02:52] Am I any closer to getting Ubuntu back onto the boot list? :( [02:52] mechdave: if a latter official version comes out latter do i need to worry about removing this one first, manually, or will it just put the new one on top of it magically :P [02:52] mostafa_: you are correct, then on the PC, go to system -> admin -> usb startup [02:52] Guest36562 now what dir is the .gz file in?

[02:55] MaGicMaX, what you can do is add it to the black list, but if you are not going to use it again I would just remove it. The reason we remove it is so that in case there is a conflict with the new module versus the one we made [02:55] Can anyone help me add Ubuntu to the GRUB bootloader? [02:56] Guest36562: make sure it matches your architecture, so if i386 doesn't work, its x64 [02:56] mechdave: if its blacklisted it cant conflict? [02:57] Howdy.

[03:17] mostafa_: http://www.ubuntumini.com/2008/10/make-liveusb.html works both in an older version of ubuntu and fedora [03:17] josh: lsb_release -a [03:17] only 3 codecs included in the w64codecs package! [03:17] linux, saw that earlier, thanks. [03:17] josh: try typing that in in terminal (applications -> accessories -> terminal) [03:17] it doesn't seem to matter whether or not i have the focused window maximized [03:17] josh: np [03:18] but I followed the instructions for my version to "unlock" the w64codecs" package, and there's only three actual codecs included in the package?!?

In the past, when I had DSL, I had to install special software with windows. [03:21] None of you are helping. [03:21] Jhouse: What type of DSL do you have? Are you always on or PPPoE [03:21] I just need to change my username. [03:21] jhouse: are you refering to ATT? [03:21] Gouda, linux, it'd be with Verizon [03:21] jhouse: ATT requires a windows computer to register DSL, then after that, linux works fine, don't know about Verizon (most software is optional for DSl working though on Windows) [03:21] linux: no difference between ubuntu DVD or CD yep? [03:21] Jhouse: It depends on how the DSL is setup. I work for a DSL company. [03:22] mostafa_: i would recommend CD if you have a popular network card, if not DVD [03:22] hi [03:22] Seijaku: easiest thing to do is to set up a new account with the new user name [03:22] Seijaku, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ubuntu+change+username&l=1 [03:22] Jhouse: If your mode is configured to authenticate for you, you shouldn't have any issues but if you have to dial in you might have to setup something [03:22] mode=modem [03:23] what was gnome's dolphin? [03:23] !dolphin | zebaztian [03:23] zebaztian: To change the default application for a filetype, go to Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations" (KDE 3), or System Settings -> Advanced -> File Associations (KDE 4). To change your default file manager, change the "inode/directory" and "inode/system_directory" filetypes. [03:24] file manager! [03:24] thats it [03:24] zebaztian: gnome's dolphin is the equivalent of window's explorer.exe (it should now use nautalis though [03:24] whats gnome file manager [03:24] What's the ext4 advantage? [03:24] !ext4 | n-iCe [03:24] Sorry, I don't know anything about ext4 [03:25] linux: and another thing no difference between Kubuntu and Ubuntu CD? [03:25] i have kde 4.3 and gnome but i can only see dolphin [03:25] I can't start GDM (screen with nothing but cursor for a while then dies), and when I use startx, the mouse and keyboard don't work. I tried messing with my xorg.conf, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with it. [03:25] Gouda, what should I be looking for on their website? The info at http://www22.verizon.com/Residential/HighSpeedInternet/SystemRequirements/SystemRequirements.htm appears useless. [03:25] linux you use ext4? [03:26] mostafa_: Ubuntu CD is GNOME graphical user interface and program set, as aposed to KDE (and kubuntu has its own irc channel #kubuntu) [03:26] n-iCe: yes [03:26] jhouse: when you boot into windows, do you have to launch the verizon application everytime to connect to the internet? [03:26] uninverted: ~/.xsession-errors ? [03:26] before I do anything like more updates, I want to know, I just updated to karmic 9.10 for powepc now why are all the repo lines I have point to jaunty? [03:26] linux what's better, what can you tell me? [03:26] n-iCe: it supports bigger file systems and a new writing algorithm for better defrag on the fly [03:26] Gouda, I haven't bought it yet... [03:26] linux: K I just asked :D [03:26] You haven't bought what yet? [03:26] n-iCe: there maybe more features...anyone else know anymore [03:27] linux ok, but in a home pc, will be there differences? [03:27] linux: Because I have Ubuntu DVD and Kubuntu CD [03:27] Goud, I'm not using DSL at the moment. I'm using an always on cable modem, but it sucks... [03:27] well? [03:27] DaZ: Hang on, it's huge, I'm putting it on pastebin [03:27] mostafa_: i would stick with the Ubuntu DVD then [03:27] n-iCe: I think it's advantages in recovering from an outage [03:28] Well if you get DSL, and you plan on running linux. I would suggest getting an always on DSL with static IP address [03:28] n-iCe: so it's probably not a huge deal for a home box [03:28] linux: K [03:28] ;) [03:28] Hey everyone - any suggestions for setting up an e-mail server in Ubuntu (which app) and how to set it up to send and receive through Gmail? [03:28] This will allow you to run apache and host webpages on your machine, ftp, mail server, make remote desktop easier, etc [03:29] Hi all. Is there a way to display and use applets on the desktop without using gnome-panel? [03:29] Cable is usually DHCP so each time you connect your IP MIGHT change. This is why static IP with DSL is the way to go === MR is now known as Guest21244 [03:29] dorkface: define applets [03:29] any one had problems with thier macbook express card slot? [03:29] DaZ: I don't know how much is relevant. http://pastebin.com/decc7ee5 [03:29] I am on DSL through Covad, and I have static IP and my login and pw for my dsl is inputted into the modem/router itself so all I have to do is configure lan and Im on the net [03:30] uninverted: do you have dbus and hal running?

[03:30] Does that answer your question Jhouse? [03:31] Gouda: About as well as I expected. It does help me ask the right questions when I call them [03:31] DaZ: Right now? I'm on a livecd. Before? I don't think so; networking didn't work from the command line. [03:31] Thanks for the help gouda [03:31] uninverted: xorg needs hal to run [03:31] #join #nm [03:32] DaZ: I want to be able to uninstall gnome-panel, but still have access to the "NetworkManager Applet" [03:32] anyone know?? [03:32] Jhouse: Just make sure when you call them you are plan on running linux. That way they can probably send you a disk linux compatible [03:32] DaZ: How do I start hal as a daemon? [03:32] hi all [03:32] Anytime dude [03:32] uninverted: /etc/init.d/hal start [03:32] i think [03:33] Daz: I'll try it in a chroot === HonkingKoala is now known as SudoKing [03:33] uninverted: chroot!=actually running system [03:34] hi all [03:34] what's new?

I mean in somewhere like /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand I have many files. I wand the description of them. I need the documentation of architecture and how the whole think works [03:35] Guest21244: Fixing your caps lock key might help [03:35] Guest21244: try hacking with gimp [03:36] please wait 54 minutes or click here to enjoy unlimited use of megavideo [03:36] * DaZ rages [03:36] before I do anything like more updates, I want to know, I just updated to karmic 9.10 for powepc now why are all the repo lines I have point to jaunty?

[03:48] hi [03:48] h4f: kernel [03:48] WTF 1301 OF YOU [03:48] libaprutil1-dev requires libdb4.6-dev instead of libdb-dev and so the dependencies are broken [03:48] shamm: oh, its a TUI, sorry, you can also try dillo or dillo2 [03:49] shamm: methinks "Graphical browser for console" is an oxymoron [03:49] uninverted: there's /var/log/Xorg*.log [03:49] h4f: trying to find out how to turn it off [03:49] generic: I think its kernel right . so for the whole documentation of architecture I need to search in kernel [03:49] generic: ehe [03:49] generic: I want to try to understand how the whole think work [03:49] uninverted: I've used that browser long time ago -- [03:50] ubuntu should soo have a generic livecd that does a web install so that you don't have to keep burning discs for every new release lol [03:50] NetEcho: use pendrives [03:50] DaZ unfortunatly whenever I do I can't complete the install [03:51] :F [03:51] h4f: well you might want to look into to general acpi information before lokking in to linux's acpi [03:51] get arch [03:51] can't figure out why heh [03:51] no new releases and working penrive image [03:51] but a web install would also help as far as having all the updates right away as well [03:51] h4f: I don't know how advanced you are so srry if that last statment annpoys you. [03:51] ^ [03:52] ^annoys [03:52] generic: yeap just wanted to say. no problem === pshr_ is now known as register === register is now known as pshr_ [03:53] h4f: the folks in #kernel are really helpful if they happen to actually be talking ;) [03:53] DaZ: Here's `cat /var/log/Xorg*.log`: http://pastebin.com/d1062a67e [03:53] register exodus shirishreddy89@gmail.com [03:53] generic: I am advanced but not that much talking to them. I am still in learning process. Its just time to me goo in more deep [03:53] lols [03:54] sorry [03:54] :P [03:54] when i run epiphany in a terminal, I get a "Segmentation Fault" on hardy [03:54] How do I download a .bin file? [03:54] generic: kernel.org is the main one right [03:54] aj_444: The same as any other file: right click, then 'Save As'. [03:55] h4f: that is the site of the linux kernel, theremay be docs there [03:55] uninverted: xD I have it saved to the desktop... but I can't open it [03:55] generic: ok found them. thanks . you pointed me in right direction. [03:55] aj_444: Is it a program? [03:55] uninverted: its google earth. [03:56] linux: I made the iso what should I do with stored in reserved extra space? [03:56] aj_444: Remove the '.bin' extension, and run 'chmod +x ' in a terminal (without the quotes, of course) [03:56] Could anyone tell me what driver Ubuntu uses for broadcom cards in jaunty? I'm helping someone with a BCM4328 card. [03:56] aj_444: Then you should be able to run it [03:57] uninverted: with the <> though? [03:57] mostafa_: you can put swap on it or use it for storage [03:57] aj_444: Replace everything between the <> with the name of the file [03:58] aj_444: and take out the <> [03:58] linux: if I check it for 128Mb sth bad happends? [03:58] h4f: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Configuration_and_Power_Interface < that will be of more help [03:58] mostafa_: don't understand the question? [03:58] uninverted: it's possible that it's not a hal issue :f [03:58] can any one please link me to resource where i can find on how to configure Datacard USB internet in Ubuntu [03:59] uninverted: "chmod: cannot access `GoogleEarthLinux': No such file or directory" [03:59] !tab|aj_444 [03:59] aj_444: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [03:59] DaZ: Yeah, I couldn't find anything like it online. It might have somthing to do with me mixing hardy and jaunty repos [03:59] uninverted: hardware detection depends on hal [04:00] can any one please link me to resource where i can find on how to configure Datacard USB internet in Ubuntu ? [04:00] linux: under "stored in reserved extra space" it displays a bar to choose the space [04:00] DaZ: Is it about hardware detection? I'm not good at reading last-gasps. [04:00] linux: then if i choose 128Mb anything happens? [04:00] mostafa_: i think you should set at least 700 MB - 1 GB if you have it, 128 is probably near the min [04:01] aj_444: Are you in the same directory/folder as the file? [04:01] uninverted: mouse and keyboard are hardware :f [04:01] generic: yeap that's good. mostly why I want to goo more deep is because I often do some changes in script here and there. and I need to know exactly what each of them is responsible for. Today I noticed that my shuttering governor is not responsible enough. I set it to ondemand. but with such application like firefox where you need activities just for 3/4 sec for scrolling or flash it fails to raise cpu frequency fast enough [04:01] DaZ: And GDM doesn't start at all. [04:01] wow a story [04:01] uninverted: any errors? [04:01] linux: K i'll solve it ;) [04:02] DaZ: It said something about processes dying, but gdm is annoyingly silent. [04:02] generic: so I did not know where to find description of each file in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand [04:02] uninverted: no.. Its on the desktop. I don't know how to change the terminal location though. [04:02] actually up_threshold is responsible directly for what I said [04:03] what is the command to check what version ala 32 or 64 bit os is installed? [04:03] hi [04:03] michta35: uname [04:03] aj_444: You can change directories/folders in the terminal with the 'cd' command. You get get information on it with 'man cd' (man is short for manual). [04:03] thanks didnt know if it was same as my centOS server or not [04:03] michta35: uname -a [04:03] uname -m [04:03] DaZ: yeap better [04:04] please 1 question, why can't i remove a . or .. hardlink at a folder? I know i'm not supposed to, i know i shouldn't to, but hey, i'm logged as root, it's a simple hardlink as any other, why system won't let me remove it? [04:04] miguelonnnn, ? [04:04] hi xmnt [04:04] miguelonnnn, hey [04:05] miguelnonnn: To guard against typos. I wish it was configurable, though. [04:05] uninverted: I switched it to the desktop.. now it doesn't even acknowledge that I'm trying to do something. [04:05] michtas: miguelonnnn: try rm -f [04:05] its 86x64 [04:05] miguelonnnn, you can't remove the . and .. those are references to the parent folder and the folder you're currently in [04:05] aj_444: What do you mean? Can you show me what the program writes on the screen? [04:06] uninverted: "aj@aj-laptop:~/Desktop$ chmod +x GoogleEarthLinux naj@aj-laptop:~/Desktop$ " [04:06] michta35: that means its 64 bit [04:06] ya I know [04:06] thanks for the help guys [04:06] miguelonnnn, i think thats what you're talking about [04:06] aj_444: Why not use the google earth in medibuntu? [04:06] is there a way to install xubuntu on a usb drive with all the options of saving downloading etc but use it on a different pc than the one I install it on? [04:06] how do u check your ignore list i might of accidently ignored some 1 [04:06] Flannel: What do you mean? I'm... really new at this. (: [04:07] yeah i'm talking about that. I tried too with rm -f as somebody said but won't let me "." and ".." may not be removed [04:07] Is virtualbox better than qemu? [04:07] Anyone know how to switch my language to russian [04:07] aj_444: There isn't anything wrong; most programs (including chmod) don't write anything extra when things go fine. Now you can run the program. [04:07] aj_444: Alright. There's a third party repository called medibuntu which has a package for google earth, it's strongly recommended over installing it manually. [04:07] what are the main differences between regular ubuntu and xubuntu etc? [04:07] xmnt, , what do you mean by references? aren't them just hardlinks? files with the same inode as the actual /users/home/thefolder ? [04:07] aj_444: As far as your command, "no news is good news" [04:07] WebcamWonder: most people say its better [04:07] how do you edit yorr xorg in ubuntu 9.10? i cant find it [04:07] Type './GoogleEarthLinux' without the quotes. [04:08] h4f: :)... thank you, that is all I needed :) [04:08] WebcamWonder: it provides close to native speed of host IS [04:08] michta35: Ubuntu uses gnome, Kubuntu uses KDE, Xubuntu uses XFCE, except for the window manager and the programs that go alongwith it (the GUI ones) it's all the same [04:08] How do I get firefox to run the installer on .DEB files? [04:08] uninverted: Flannel, I'm clicked it, it gave an option to run in the terminal.. its installed. thanks guys. [04:08] ah ok just flavoring [04:08] michta35, check out wikipedia for some good articles on xfce and gnome thats the big difference [04:08] uninverted: No, there's no reason to install from the bin [04:08] p34ce do you get my pm's? [04:08] aj_444: Happy to help :) [04:08] aj_444: Unfortunately you likely won't ever be able to remove it cleanly now [04:08] I prefer shell I just use it on my laptop to ssh to my centOS boxes [04:09] Flannel: Well, he already has it... [04:09] gnome is good enough for the laptop then [04:09] Anyone know how to switch my language to russian [04:09] Flannel: I don't plan on removing it. [04:09] uninverted: Yeah, but he won't get updates for it [04:09] * RHorse calls out p34ce Hey, what happend? [04:09] Flannel, aj_444: But it is usually better to install from the repos [04:09] how do you edit your xorg in ubuntu 9.10? I can't find it. It's not in /etc/X11/ [04:09] aj_444: right, but repositories mean you'll get updates for it, both bugfixes and updates when you upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu. [04:09] what is the main repo for ubuntu [04:09] red__: it's automagic [04:09] system -> administration -> language support [04:09] im used to .rpm stuff [04:09] .deb is new to me [04:09] red__: It's called xorg.conf, and it is in /etc/X11 (or should be) [04:10] miguelonnnn, I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about but if you mean the '. and ..' that appear when you ls -la from a directory then really no, they are not hardlinks [04:10] uninverted, its not there anymore in 9'10 [04:10] michta35: the main repos are the ones that are already enabled [04:10] Hello everybody. I messed up my cryptsetup (and lvm) boot process involving fstab and crypttab (and kernels?). I hope that somebody here experienced with grubs and crypttab and such would be kindly and assist me with my issue. I kept trying many things but I get same end-result. :< [04:10] cloakinghalk: system -> administration -> language support [04:10] o, I don't have to install the key first? [04:10] wow ubuntu is like windows lol [04:10] DaZ, what if i want to edit it? i wanted ot enable uxa for intel [04:10] used to server GUI's [04:10] red__: That's where the program will look, you can make a new one, or use dexconf. [04:10] michta35: The key is already installed when you install Ubuntu, regardless of whether you have a GUI or not [04:11] * D3f0 is away: Ausente por ahora [04:11] right, in centOS it's not always the case [04:11] this is easy stuff then [04:11] hello [04:11] Flannel: is that bad? [04:11] red__: you're out of luck :F [04:11] does anyone know if there is a way to install xubuntu on a usb drive with all the options of saving downloading etc but use it on a different pc than the one I install it on? [04:11] michta35: There's no reason to make it difficult :) [04:11] i am trying to create a startup disk [04:11] why is there talk of centos in #ubuntu? :o [04:11] i am getting error [04:11] yea, for a desktop os [04:11] * D3f0 is back. [04:11] status [04:11] blue0488: try unetbootin [04:11] aj_444: It's not ideal [04:11] works ok so far on this older laptop [04:11] Flannel: I'll keep that in mind [04:11] unable to find partition number [04:11] anyway... anyone know of a factoid or web article for repairing grub when windows overwrites the boot sector? [04:12] how do u wisper people [04:12] michta35: Even for a server, but we're getting offtopic === cinson is now known as sinsun [04:12] prefer stability of centOS still. Ubuntu not there yet for me [04:12] I am trying to creat a startup disk in ubuntu i get error saying unable to determine partition number any help ?

I suppose if you have a working Ubuntu system, you could fire up USB Startup Disk Creator with persistent option. Pure all Gnome and install xubuntu-desktop. [04:13] na, I prefer redhat/centOS rpm types :) [04:13] red__: you can generate it somehow [04:13] put ubuntu on the laptop to try it out as a desktop os [04:13] xmnt, you say they aren't hardlinks? i read that long ago. I read that . and .. are hardlinks, so copying . is the same as copying /users/home/folder [04:13] pshr_: try installing gparted (sudo apt-get install gparted) and its GUI should determine the partition locations and numbers [04:13] h4f so boot up into the try ubuntu mode and go into command line and type grub? [04:13] how do I setup firefox to launch the installer foor .DEB packages? [04:13] michta35: There's a package called 'alien' that converts rpms to debs. [04:13] then what they are? references? what are references? xmnt [04:13] is there a good how to ubuntu site or wiki like they have for centOS ? === mohammed is now known as Guest55696 [04:14] NetworkMan: I don't understand your question, Firefox doesn't install debs, dpkg and apt-get do? [04:14] mechdave: Thanks alot for the post, i hope it gets a sticky so it can help others too. [04:14] michta35 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ [04:14] ah ok same stuff thanks [04:14] michta35: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ [04:14] hi everyone // [04:14] hello i have a problem [04:14] can anybody help? [04:14] NetEcho: there should be restore or repair option somewhere. and then other option like : 1 root shell , 2 reinstall grub. etc. if I remember right [04:14] miguelonnnn, a hardlink is the physical location of a file or dir ... so /home/user/folder is a hardlink ... if your in the folder dir then . is a reference to the /home/user/folder (btw I'm not sure if reference is the correct term) [04:15] h4f kk I'll google if I have issues [04:15] ok...then...here is the link that i want firefox to process: apt://ubuntuone-client-gnome?refresh=yes [04:15] ...

Hardlinks are files which point to the inode of the referencing file, so editing them will edit the file. They are like synchronised copies of the same file. While softlinks are what we see in windows, direct access icons pointing to a file. [04:19] they released a new version of pidgin that supports video (gmail) but i cant get it to work [04:19] Anxious: what version of pidgin ? [04:20] I installed google desktop thinking it was the same thing as it was for windows. It isn't. How can I uninstall it? [04:20] Anxious: mine is 2.5.5 [04:21] DaZ: Any leads?

[04:22] no softlinks might be consider what you see in the nautilus or something, but generally i think of a softlink as more of a symbolic type link [04:23] Brando753: It's up to you.

Lol. Not everything get updated right away. :) [04:34] xmnt Thisis vary old version on RHEL i.e.3 [04:35] 32 bit system max supports 16 GB ram right ? [04:35] phaidonx: or copy the 3.5 binary over the 3.0 :) [04:35] it doesnt work!!! but nevermind i guess i'll stick with empathy since it'll be preinstalled in karmic [04:35] I would not mind if some one help me to upgrade it to fedora or cent-os even [04:35] Okay, I have sun java installed, how do I get it to run a jnlp file forme? [04:35] AnxiousNut: try #ubuntu+1 for karmic support! [04:36] xmnt I would not mind if some one help me to upgrade it to fedora or cent-os even [04:36] parveenks, why not do a distro upgrade .. or ask your provider if they'll let you move servers so you can upgrade you OS ... if it's old they would probably prefer you be on a newer OS anyways [04:36] h4f: 4GB max for 32 bit I believe... [04:36] devD: #ubuntu-classroom [04:36] Walker__: try #ubuntu+1 for karmic support (this is 9.04 and below) [04:36] xmnt The current os is all they have [04:37] linux: I tried overwriting firefox by firefox-3.5 but it did work.. well, I better keep 3.0 for now since the 'fullscreen crash with flash' is still unresolved in 3.5.2. [04:37] parveenks, doing a distro switch on a remote server is not a good way to go about it ... you will most definately run into problems [04:37] xmnt , I am new to linux. Can't we do something like put the copy of iso image on the server and then install it from their [04:38] xmnt there* [04:38] thanks anyway [04:38] needs help installing printer driver iP1980 on ubuntu 8.0.4 LTS 64bit.. === flaco is now known as flacom [04:38] Ugh every chat room I go to I ask the same question and everyone tells me to go to another one [04:38] linux: missing python.h is that the python development install? [04:38] parveenks, there are ways to do it yes, but you will risk your data on the server as well as having to get your vps provider to restore your service if something goes awry [04:38] the printer is detected but cannot print.. [04:39] amites: yes, that is; that is the header file for python (dev package) [04:39] Went to #Fedora they told me to go to #grub. No answer. Went to #Ubuntu then got told to go to #Fedora, then told to go back to #Ubuntu, then #Ubuntu+1 [04:39] Walker__: #ubuntu+1 is the correct place to go for Karmic support (Karmic isn't official yet, so we don't support it here) [04:39] parveenks, if you are new to linux esp. you should not be doing kernel upgrades and such === theGussi is now known as Gussi [04:39] Walker__: you should look at /boot/grub/menu.lst [04:39] Flannel: I'm aware of that but my problem isn't a Karmic specific problem [04:39] xmnt I am not able to do anything on the server with RHEL4 as YUM is not there I am not able to RPM compatible for this version and a very long queue of NOT's [04:40] linux: thank you [04:40] hey RHorse same error msg [04:40] amites: np [04:40] Walker__: On Karmic, I believe they're using GRUB2, so yes, it is. [04:40] parveenks, what vps provider is it ... they sound kind-of sucky [04:40] How do I get thunderbird to use the same smtp server as the account that the email is being sent from. (ie not the default smtp account) ?? [04:40] losher: yeap right 2^32=4294967296=4 Gb so for 64 bit system2^64=18446744073709551616=MORETHANENOUGH [04:40] xmnt , yes you are right [04:40] Walker__: you basically add one line to /boot/grub/menu.lst, then run "sudo update-grub" [04:40] I'm in Fedora [04:40] update-grub ain't workin [04:41] RHorse? [04:41] @RHorse hello [04:41] actually 64 bit system supports max of 16 GB ram right & [04:41] yea p34ce! [04:41] did you try gsynaptics again? === Wowbagger is now known as DeepThought [04:41] parveenks, the best way to approach the situation is to do a data migration from 1 server to a second server w/ the new OS installed... then cut off the old server when your done [04:41] Walker__: sorry, I can't help you with Fedora. You need to find the equivalent Fedora way of changing menu.lst [04:42] h4f: i thought it was way more than 16 gb [04:42] it is [04:42] Walker__: You'll end up changing /boot/grub/grub.conf (or .cnf) but you should ask in #ubuntu+1 for how to chainload into GRUB2 (or otherwise integrate it) [04:42] so how does ubuntu can run with 32 GB of ram if 64 bit platform supports max of 16 GB [04:42] Walker__: Fedora's grub should still be in /boot/grub/menu.lst [04:42] how to remove nginx in ubuntu jaunty? [04:42] xmnt hmm let us see , but there must be a way to solve my purpose [04:43] mumtazah: assuming nginx is a package, in terminal, sudo apt-get remove nginx [04:43] DigitalKiwi: I am not sure about 16 GB [04:43] The emergence of the 64-bit architecture effectively increases the memory ceiling to 264 addresses, equivalent to approximately 17.2 billion gigabytes, 16.8 million terabytes, or 16 exabytes of RAM. [04:43] thats 2^64 [04:43] it does not work === Socket- is now known as Indonesian- [04:44] mumtazah: try from a package manager, such as system -> administration -> synaptic [04:44] DigitalKiwi: ha ok, my conversion was wrong . nice nick name tought [04:44] parveenks, i'm not saying you can't do it ... but it's a difficult and time consuming task... [04:44] ty [04:44] i'm trying to get a zenity radio dialog to display a variable length list with the names in the list having spaces in them- can't seem to get the names to display with the spaces in tact. they end up one word per line. here is my code: http://pastebin.com/m5de19017 [04:44] Most 64-bit microprocessors on the market today have an artificial limit on the amount of memory they can address, because physical constraints make it impossible to support the full 16.8 million terabyte capacity. For example, the AMD64 architecture has a 52-bit limit on physical memory and currently only supports a 48-bit virtual address space [04:45] parveenks, I run about 30 different servers and I would NEVER do that on any one of them [04:45] Haha... it looks like... I'm going to have to reinstall Ubuntu allllll over again. [04:45] And format the entire hard drive. [04:45] i want to ask, why my wireless does not works? [04:45] xmnt, please let me know how we can proceed with that. I am ready for the worse :) [04:45] * Walker__ is angry [04:45] The emergence of the 64-bit architecture effectively increases the memory ceiling to 264 addresses, equivalent to approximately 17.2 billion gigabytes, 16.8 million terabytes, or 16 exabytes of RAM. [04:45] DigitalKiwi: Now I am not warried about platform being limited in ram [04:45] before this it is okay. After i disable, it does not appear in network manager [04:45] HI, what does the /etc/rc.local do? [04:46] Walker__: which OS is on the bootable partition? [04:46] parveenks, be warned this will probably NOT work:: http://www.goudkov.com/public/articles/changing_distro.jsp [04:47] carpediem1: I would assume Fedora 11 [04:47] carpediam1: Since that is the only thing I can boot to. :p [04:47] xmnt it should work for VPS too correct :( === onchoe is now known as simpLe_ce [04:48] Walker__: okay don't give up and reinstall everything, you simply need to find out how Fedora's menu.lst should be edited. If you look at it, you can probably add the proper item yourself. [04:48] parveenks, if it works at all yes - it won't matter if you're on a VPS or a dedicated server [04:48] Walker__: but FEdora probably also has a tool like Ubuntu does with update-grub [04:48] HI, what is the function of /etc/rc.local? [04:49] carpediem1: http://pastie.org/600075 [04:49] menu.list / grub.conf [04:49] So will go ahead with this, and in worse case I may have to recreate the VPS as I am least worried about the data [04:49] !find rc.local | karex [04:49] karex: it runs at startup [04:49] karex: File rc.local found in initscripts, ipip, mimefilter, pcp, smartlist [04:49] anyone here familiar with gpib? [04:49] Also, the folks in Fedora didn't say I had to run any commands [04:49] xmnt So will go ahead with this, and in worse case I may have to recreate the VPS as I am least worried about the data [04:49] any commands you have in it get started [04:49] hi! :) [04:50] !hi | Nerd42 [04:50] Nerd42: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [04:50] linux: as root? [04:50] i don't know what order it is loaded in ubuntu, likely last or near last iirc [04:50] parveenks, good luck! [04:50] I have a question about bug #343069 ... it's been broken since the jaunty alpha builds (so 5 months now), there was a proposed patch in the launchpad thread, and it's even been fixed upstream. How does that make it into ubuntu? Is there anything I can do to help it along? [04:50] (sorry, I asked that earlier and got no response) [04:50] karex: what do you mean as root? [04:50] Walker__: so, what's the situation, when you choose karmic, it doesnt' boot? [04:50] Exactly [04:50] It says "Error: File Not Found" [04:50] ian6: The package in the ubuntu repos need to be synced with upstream then [04:50] Walker__: are you sure hd0,0 is correct? [04:51] That's what a guy in #Fedora told me to do :p [04:51] xmnt how to find if swap partition is there [04:51] karex: it gets ran as root [04:51] I don't know what else I'd replace it with [04:51] hey i've got a computer with an AMD Duron processor that's 1.26 Ghz, 272 MB of RAM and a 20 GB hard drive that I'd like to put linux on so I can start learning how to use linux cause i don't know very much about it at all yet [04:51] run? which is it [04:51] WebcamWonder: I'm trying to encourage that process, it doesn't show any signs of happening any time soon. [04:51] How would I find which hd it's installed on? [04:51] Wouldn't Xubuntu be a better choice than Ubuntu for an old system like that? [04:51] or should I be using some other distro? [04:51] Walker__: it depends on which drive its installed on hd0,0 means Karmic is on the primary master [04:51] xfce: gnome with more bugs [04:51] parveenks, it says in the article but you will have a swp partition [04:51] ian6: avahi? [04:51] Nerd42: Xubuntu is a good one to choose, or you could try the alternate version of ubuntu [04:52] Walker__: if you don't think that's the case, we need to figure out which drive it IS installed on. [04:52] carpediem1: I installed Ubuntu first [04:52] what does it mean if my wifi connection is cutting in and out [04:52] carpediem1: Formatted the HD and installed Ubuntu so that it was the only OS there [04:52] xmnt I am sorry if I am disturbing you so much, just let me know when you reach your limit and I will not bother you. NO I am asking how to see if it is there in my VPS [04:52] WebcamWonder: no, the bug is with mt-daapd [04:52] WebcamWonder: it just involves (bad) avahi-related code. [04:52] carpediem1: Then about a week later decided I wanted to try out Fedora... then this happens [04:52] Walker__: is there only one physical drive in this system? [04:52] linux, "the alternate version" ?? what's that? [04:52] carpediem1: Yes [04:52] Walker__: okay, then 0,0 is probably right [04:52] ubuntu isn't that great of distribution for learning *linux* it's good for learning ubuntu, sure, but if you want to learn linux there are better choices [04:52] Nerd42: its a text based installation of ubuntu that runs on computers with less than 256 MB of RAM [04:53] ian6: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mt-daapd/+bug/343069/comments/29 [04:53] carpediem1: A guy in #Fedora told me that lines 21+ are wrong [04:53] hi [04:53] ian6: This says that the fixed package is already in karmic, so it has to be backported then [04:53] linux, so basically it's just a prompt ? or by "text based" do you mean something else? [04:53] Walker__: any errors when you try to boot Karmic? [04:53] !wifi [04:53] Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [04:53] i have absolutely no idea how to use ubuntu server, does anyone have any idea where i can get information about turning my old laptop into a server [04:53] Nerd42: its text, but it has colors and is pretty easy to setup (ubuntu makes it pretty easy) [04:53] carpediem1: Yes, I get taken to a black & white terminal screen with "Error: File Not Found" [04:53] !alternate | Nerd42 [04:53] Nerd42: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [04:53] hi [04:53] Nerd42: It asks you the same questions during the install, but uses text menus to do it, instead of fancy GUI stuff (you use the arrow keys, etc) [04:54] Walker__: then the location of the kernel is probably wrong..... [04:54] ian6: So, once karmic is out, a backport bug needs to be filed [04:54] !minimal [04:54] The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [04:54] carpediem1: How would I find the true location of the kernel then? [04:54] parveenks, n/p ... you probably won't get much support on #ubuntu regarding this, maybe you should check out centos or rhel irc to see if you can do an upgrade b4 you switch distros [04:54] Walker__: in Fedora, can you see the Ubuntu drive mounted? [04:54] oh i would want the alternate CD i guess [04:54] WebcamWonder: so you're saying the package will be permanently broken for the life of Jaunty? [04:54] carpediem1: Yes, I mounted it [04:54] WebcamWonder: I don't mean to sound confrontational, but that's insane ;) [04:54] carpediem1: /dev/sda3 [04:54] Народ, помогите! [04:54] im looking for what mode of operation, algorithm, hashing algorithm, and keysize the ubuntu juanty alternate install cd supports [04:54] ian6: It would require to be backported to Jaunty [04:55] ian6: use a rolling release distro if you want upstream bug fixes to be immediately available [04:55] Walker__: okay, then verify /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-8-generic exists on that drive [04:55] so ubuntu jaunty booted up in read only; so i booted into live cd; then i ran fsck on all partitions; rebooted and it was still read only; so i made sure all my data was backed up (done). next, i've run the seagate diagnostic tools on the drive. short test says its fine and s.m.a.r.t. hasnt triggered yet. should i run long test? if long test is aok, is this drive worth using again? [04:55] (i have googled, and searched fourms) [04:55] xmnt , just le me know how to find if swap partition is there on my vps or not as "df -h" is not showing any swap partition [04:55] DigitalKiwi: you're missing the point, the package *shipped* broken. It has never been functional in Jaunty. Surely it's reasonable to correct the problem. [04:55] linux, OK so basically you're saying that this is just the installer that it makes faster? [04:55] Nerd42: and more reliable installation for newer linux users [04:56] oh ok [04:56] WebcamWonder: bug fixes in other packages don't wait for backports, what's the difference here? [04:56] Walker__: also, verify the same for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-8-generic [04:56] oh, that's even more dumb that they actually shipped it broken, fail [04:56] linux, well with those specs should i even be running xubuntu though? [04:56] ... ubuntu [04:56] aargh [04:56] DigitalKiwi: no kidding, but like I said, I'm not trying to be confrontational. I just want it to work ;) [04:56] Nerd42: It'll run on a slower system (it can also install a system that has no GUI, so you can build up a sparse GUI) [04:56] how do i start sun vbox after i install it in Jaunty? [04:56] ... that's the other thing, the package version isn't bumped. [04:56] just the debian patch level. [04:56] carpediem1: How would I check to see if those exist? [04:57] gartral: it's VirtualBox [04:57] parveenks, look in /etc/fstab [04:57] Nerd42: Yes, it shouldn't be a problem, if it is, you can sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop to switch between the two upon login [04:57] gartral: case sensitive [04:57] well my problems not with getting the installer to run on my slow computer, it's that i want the operating system itself to not be slow [04:57] Walker__: you said the drive is mounted [04:57] linux, oh really? that's handy [04:57] ian6: They do. Regular bugfixes aren't pushed out.. unless security fixes or something really broken... I am not exactly sure how severe this bug is, but if it is severe enough, it might be updated if someone takes up the responsibiliy [04:57] Walker__: can't you just browse to /boot on that drive and see [04:57] carpediem1: Right, that was a stupid question. My bad :P [04:57] hi , I'd like to install gnu flex in my ubuntu 9.04, but I don't find it in synaptic, how can I proceed? [04:58] as [04:58] but that means i'll have to download and burn another disc. oh well :) [04:58] kk thanks for the tips bye! :) [04:59] WebcamWonder: race condition in the avahi code causes crash on startup. Always. I mean it's not a security issue, but it's severe enough that making the package available is more of a cruel joke than anything else. [04:59] haroelcabo: gnu makes things easy to compile if not in the repositories, try to find and download the source code, then tar -xvf && cd && ./configure && make && sudo make install [04:59] Walker__: if the reference to both those files aren't perfect in grub's menu.lst, it won't run. [04:59] linux: thanks, I'll try that [05:00] i could swear fedora had an automagic grub updater :/ [05:00] carpediem1: They both exist [05:00] Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [05:00] I copied/pasted the file names into the menu.lst to replace what was there [05:00] does anyone know if there is a way to have more than 1 network in /etc/network/interfaces (for instance like my house and my parents house) and automatically connect to the one that it can find.... all without using any gui's. [05:00] Although I don't think it changed anything === nabeel is now known as Guest6030 [05:01] can i used ubuntu with this graffic card?

[05:03] fulgore2009: That's not a graphics issue, it's likely flash based [05:03] Walker__: wait [05:03] Walker__: now they don't match [05:03] but i have a flash 10 [05:03] the ultimate edition [05:04] Walker__: are you sure that's right, your vmlinuz has -6 and your initrd has -8 [05:04] i am new in this system [05:04] i used for the last two week [05:05] i need help [05:05] to check my system [05:06] This is my alsa-info message: http://dpaste.com/87556/ [05:06] help me [05:06] Can anyone help me please?

[05:16] Instead of the grassy jungles of Fedora, yet unexplored. :x [05:16] bummer [05:17] 3 hrs ago? i was tallking to him 20mins ago [05:17] m looking for what mode of operation, algorithm, hashing algorithm, and keysize the ubuntu juanty alternate install cd supports [05:17] m looking for what mode of operation, algorithm, hashing algorithm, and keysize the ubuntu juanty alternate install cd supports [05:17] dave-ubuntu1: ? do you mean dmcrypt (hard disk crypting) in that case i think all those what linux kernel allready supports [05:17] Walker_2: now you've learned your lesson. Don't install Fedora unless you feel like being bent over. May I recommend VirtualBox in the future. [05:18] simplexio: the encrypted LVM otion [05:18] linux: thanks [05:18] linux: that helps [05:18] babu_: np [05:18] dave-ubuntu1: try #ubuntu-dev for the developers for that question [05:19] carpediem: Well what I learned is that the solution is very simple [05:19] I'm trying to install wine, and I've provided some of the dependencies it required (flex,bison). Now it complains that the development files of X11 aren't available. I wonder how can I provide this dependency from within ubuntu. Would you please help me ?

[05:20] Hey guys, I downloaded Ubuntu just recently and im trying to launch world of warcraft on it. on the login screen the graphics start to "smeer" anyone know how to fix this issue? [05:20] haroelcabo: system --> administration --> synaptic --> search x11 in package name and download the x11-dev packages (all of them: long solution); anyone else here know a faster way? [05:20] Paragor: What are u using to run it? [05:20] Question: What is the command to DL files from the CMD line in a slackware version of linux? [05:21] Wine [05:21] Im running the same way my brother is on his computer. His way works and mine doesnt. [05:21] linux: strangely, such a package doesn't show up in synaptic's search list, which confuses me [05:22] Uninstall wine, Download PlayOnLinux (which is wine) but it has config files for games to make wine run them better [05:22] linux: any idea what kind of automagic the ubuntu alternate install does th get grub to prompt for the pass, and mount the crypted root fs? [05:22] haroelcabo: hmmm... that is odd, check the repositories [05:22] linux: i'll do [05:22] lol lot's of geeks talking about linux ?? [05:23] Im so new to Ubuntu I wouldnt even know where to start in that process [05:23] dave-ubuntu1: no, i don't know the background of how that is passed, did the #ubuntu-dev devs awake?

[05:24] wolf23 type mount [05:24] dave-ubuntu1: Whatcha trying to do? [05:24] encrypt my disk... [05:25] it is done at the moment [05:25] the encrypted LVM is setup [05:25] and ubuntu is installed to it [05:25] RHorse, ok then [05:25] grub just wont recignize it [05:25] ...wont boot [05:26] dave-ubuntu1: Why won't it recognize it? You used alternative disk or were you following/trying something? [05:26] wolf23: sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=cd.iso [05:26] flowing somthing === xikteny is now known as xikteny_ [05:27] dave-ubuntu1: Link? [05:27] leaf-sheep: specifically https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemLVMHowto [05:27] ingenioushax: pkgtool [05:27] Is there a command line equivalent of restarting X with "Ctrl+alt+backspace"? === xikteny_ is now known as xikteny [05:28] dorkface: top --> find process # --> kill [05:28] linux, thanx i am trying [05:28] Linux: So it would be something like "pkgtool "? [05:28] leaf-sheep: also, i didnt use the default i used : sudo cryptsetup -y -h whirlpool --cipher aes-xts-plain --key-size 512 luksFormat /dev/sda5 [05:28] linux: so I can restart X by killing the X process? [05:28] dorkface: just do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [05:28] dorkface: Maybe use tty2 and do "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" [05:29] carpediem: tyvm [05:29] ingenioushax: the command is pkgtool, try a man pkgtool (since its not ubuntu, #slackware would be the right place to ask) [05:29] Alright, thank you. [05:29] dorkface: that would kill it, then you have terminal to type in startx to restart it [05:30] dorkface: or you can control what ctrl+alt+F? to put it with startx -- :? [05:30] linux, it just copy 631mb, and the entire size: 4 gb [05:30] dave-ubuntu1: I got the message first time. [05:30] sorry [05:30] wolf23: i'll keep looking, brb [05:30] any ideas [05:31] wolf23: sudo dd if=/dev/dvd of=dvd.iso [05:31] i looked at my other sys... for the info [05:31] wolf23: sorry, now its a dvd your copying, not the cd [05:31] linux, dvd [05:31] dorkface, did it work? [05:31] seems like the isntaller does things not mentioned in that howto...also it seems dated at best [05:32] dave-ubuntu1: can you hex edit the initrd and vmlinux files? or any of the binary files ubuntu alt uses to boot from the iso? [05:32] Administrator__: Yes, it did, very much :) [05:32] wolf23: sudo dd if=/dev/dvd of=dvd.iso should work for dvds [05:32] dave-ubuntu1: Well; the nice thing about installer is that it's automated. You did looked at #4 at the link you gave me. [05:32] I went to tty and restarted the gdm init [05:32] dorkface, cool, [05:32] linux: wich files in specific? [05:33] leaf-sheep: the automated installer doesnt even dd urandom to your disk [05:33] linux, i remember there is code to show in terminal the percent when copying? [05:34] i will brb pleas PRIVMSG me [05:34] wolf23: sorry, don't know that off the top of my head, i can research, one sec | dave-ubuntu1: don't know which file, i just had that as a suggestion (if you were out of ideas) [05:35] wolf23: Sending a USR1 signal to a running ‘dd’ process makes it print I/O statistics to standard error and then resume copying. See man dd [05:35] I want to use Apache 2 for developing stuff, but it seems the www directory has root permissions. I am sure it is like that for a reason. Should I make another directory for this purpose? [05:36] losher, how? [05:36] albn: use public_html [05:36] Oh there is a pubic_html? [05:36] I'll have to look for it [05:37] albn: or make new configuration in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ to point new www-root, if you dont want to change permissions in /var/www === Out_Cold is now known as Guest65578 [05:37] wolf23: open another terminal. run ps ax to find the pid for dd. then do kill -USR1 . More trouble than it's worth if you ask me... === Guest65578 is now known as Out_Cold [05:37] albn: if i recall right it enabled as default [05:38] simplexio: Oh ok. I'll have to learn how to configure the files [05:38] and learn where are the directories are [05:38] wolf23: why not just run ls -l dvd.iso and watch it grow? [05:38] See, I recently switched from Windows to Ubuntu, so I am learning to tie my shoes [05:39] wolf23 et al. here's the pipe viewer http://www.catonmat.net/blog/unix-utilities-pipe-viewer/ [05:39] good thing I did not try Gentoo or something.

[05:40] guess which one I use ;) [05:40] pv is really heavy [05:41] bloat? [05:41] not really something you use for production [05:41] just a trivial thing to gawk at for lulz [05:41] losher, sorry dude, but i am newbie,i dont know much on ubuntu,i want anyone tell me what can i type and after done i go to sleep [05:41] indeed [05:41] !grab wolf23 [05:41] Sorry, I don't know anything about grab wolf23 [05:41] woops [05:42] wrong channels [05:42] DigitalKiwi confused me about the channel [05:42] * albn looks for public_html [05:42] i'm tricksy [05:42] wolf23: no problem. Just run ls -lh dvd.iso and watch it grow... [05:42] speak in the right channels DigitalKiwi [05:42] gees [05:42] sorry [05:43] losher, -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 631M 2009-08-31 00:04 dvd.iso [05:43] bruenig, thanx for grabbing :( [05:44] does anyone know how to move the NotifyOSD popups? [05:44] wolf23: isn't that the same size as when you tried to copy it as a CD? [05:44] losher, no the dvd contain 4 gb not 631mb [05:45] running ls -lh dvd.iso again reports a larger size or same size? [05:45] wolf23: alternative method: mkdir dvd && cp /media/dvd*/* dvd/* [05:45] bruenig, yes i want the code in terminal, and let me go to sleep,coz the dvd is for my neighbor === nabeel is now known as Guest59972 [05:46] linux: anything on what i asked ? [05:46] i dont want someone pulling my ss# of my laptop [05:47] linux, cp: cannot stat `/media/dvd*/*': No such file or directory [05:47] dave-ubuntu-1: sorry, i don't know much about the programming side of ubuntu, you still might go into #ubuntu-dev and tell them #ubuntu had no answers for many hours [05:47] wolf23: replace that with the mount location of your dvd (probably under /media/ somewhere) [05:47] wolf23: run isoinfo -d -i /dev/cdrom and paste the output to http://paste.ubuntu.com [05:48] OK...iwconfig shows wlan0 now... so does ifconfig... I have disabled security on wireless router... ath5k is the driver and is in /etc/modules for startup.. I still cannot get wireless connection... any thoughts? [05:48] losher: i think wolf23 is under time restraints [05:48] dave-ubuntu-1: the best way to make sure of that is to never type your ss# into your laptop... [05:49] hi is anyone running openemm in ubuntu server? === |Jason8| is now known as |Jason8|Raph| [05:49] in ubuntu period? [05:49] linux, http://paste.ubuntu.com/262315/ [05:49] is anyone running openemm? [05:49] yes but secure FDE is another good solution....i ssh to my home pc as a proxy when using wifi to avoid phishing [05:49] linux: Great. A new game. Provide free support to a complete beginner while running against the clock. The fun never ends here, does it? [05:49] For apt-build world, can I just skip the "package not found" error (I checked the man page)? [05:50] has anyone used gdb debugger [05:50] wolf23: that says there is a CD in your DVD drive [05:50] linux, yes [05:50] Is anybody here really good with iptables? I've got a tricky set of rules I'm trying to write and would like somebody to help me work through them [05:50] also as far as cold-boot attacks go my RAM is superglued....good luck with that one :) [05:51] wolf23: so the file size should not exceed 700 mb, so the inital and second iso file is all good [05:51] Good luck upgrading dave-ubuntu-1 [05:51] linux its a dvd? 4 gb full grabed [05:52] when i upgrade from juanty to karmic will it detect my encrypted LVm config? [05:52] wolf23: the correct dd command is: dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2048 count=2094400 conv=notrunc > dvd.iso [05:52] wolf23: in terminal, cd /media/ and cd to your dvd [05:52] uhok: i can always make a LVM snapshot [05:52] losher: why > and not of=? [05:52] Is Karmic worth the hassle? [05:52] LucidGuy, no. [05:52] LucidGuy: #ubuntu+1 [05:53] hello [05:53] LucidGuy: if you know what youre doing it works fine mostly [05:53] juanty is only supported untill 2010 [05:53] nobody can help me with iptables? [05:53] there's nobody awake in LXDE, does anyone know LXDE at all? [05:53] maco: they should be equivalent, so no reason... [05:53] losher his mount point is /dev/sr0 [05:53] wolf23: do a "sudo mkdir /dvdcopy && sudo cp -Rf * /dvdcopy/*" in your /media/dvd* directory [05:53] losher: ok [05:53] I can't get wireless working in it but in gnome it works fine [05:53] so LucidGuy i recommend upgrading before then [05:53] is there another channel that I should go to for wireless issues? [05:53] and after a stable release is out [05:54] RHorse: I stand corrected, thank you... [05:54] Ubiedoodie: i may be able to help [05:54] losher I mean /dev/cdrom0 [05:54] I just recently upgraded my system from Hardy to Jaunty and find my system is more unstable. Do you guys think the cause is mainly due to the upgrade or Jaunty in general. [05:54] Ubiedoodie: what is the problem? [05:54] Ubiedoodie: #ath5k [05:54] correction .. Intrepid to Jaunty [05:54] RHorse: they often all point to the same place... [05:55] I have ath5k driver running and verified to be connected via lshw , iwconfig shows wlan0 is up and running and ifconfig confirms that... [05:55] LucidGuy: I went back to 8.04 LTS after seeing what a mess 9.04 was... [05:55] Ubiedoodie: probably not. [05:56] Ubiedoodie: i guess this is the right channel, not a great time to ask though (night for most users) [05:56] LucidGuy: 9,04 has some serious wx-python issues [05:56] I have disabled security on my wireless router so as to make sure it is not a security issue [05:57] question: i have LiveCD on hd(0,2) and want to use it to install Ub on hd(0,0). Tried it but installer thinks LiveCD/hd(0,2) is /cdrom and needs to unmount before install to hd(0,0). How do I circumvent this? [05:57] dave-ubuntu-1: I cannot get wireless to connect though [05:57] Ubiedoodie: what version of ubuntu are you rinning? [05:57] Parsley: you can't use the regular installer? [05:57] Interesting .. so Im guessing you are all itching for kermic [05:57] 9.04 kernel 2.6.28-15-generic [05:57] Ubiedoodie: can you see wireless netowrks? [05:57] berzerker: no, dont have optical drive or floppy to boot from anywhere besides HDD [05:57] use sudo? [05:58] Ubiedoodie: if so can you connect to an unprotected one? [05:58] Parsley: no USB boot support? [05:58] nope [05:58] I have made my network unprotected... [05:58] linux, linux> wolf23: in terminal, cd /media/ and cd to your dvd or wolf23: do a "sudo mkdir /dvdcopy && sudo cp -Rf * /dvdcopy/*" in your /media/dvd* directory ,which one [05:58] LucidGuy: being new doesn't make a release stable. Being well tested does, so no, I'm dreading the fresh wave of 'help me, it doesn't work' from karmic... [05:58] Ubiedoodie: are you sure MAC filtering is also off? [05:59] i find that a pointless security measure [05:59] I am not sure about MAC filtering... that will be on router or ubuntu? [05:59] wolf23: which directory has the files you want to copy, that one [05:59] mac filtering can beat macchanger?? [05:59] losher, would you agree that LTS versions are wise to stick too? [05:59] hey guise [05:59] hello, i tried to create a start up disk in ubuntu 9.04 i get an error saying unable to determine partition number :( [05:59] Ubiedoodie: in the router console [05:59] How do I install and change the theme in ubuntu?

[06:01] anyone used Jaunty's pre-built drupal? I find that installing it via apt-get creates a mysql database, but it is empty and then if you try to access drupal [06:01] LucidGuy: if stability is your prime concern, absolutely go for LTS. If new features are your prime interest, then you want the latest build. You can't really have both... [06:01] hey guys, can you do a network install if you hook up host to client using just ethernet cable, no routers,servers,etc in between?

[06:02] zigi: yes, when you said no monitor i thought you were wanting to run a headless OS [06:02] losher, Being on a laptop its probably also wise to stick to newer versions due to the complexity of laptops.

[06:03] frankwang: there also some repos with the latest version [06:04] LucidGuy: I'm not sure I agree with your statement about laptops needing newer releases actually. It's something of a crapshoot with the latest hardware, frankly... [06:04] sudo dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/dvd_image.iso [06:04] wolf23: try that above [06:04] pshr: yes assuming you copy everything and dont have anything else on the other one [06:04] Has the bug with the Intel Graphics card in Jaunty been fixed?

[06:05] dave: [06:05] I have XLDE and gnome both on here [06:05] frankwang: all you need to do is type "sudo apt-get install vlc" into a terminal [06:06] wolf23: darn, i am out of ideas, try different /dev/dvd by cd /dev and ls -a [06:06] Wiseman: another user logged in ? killall -u username [06:06] frankwang: and it will download it and install it.

Now what do I do? [06:07] try removing the base package you installed it with [06:07] !help | Pickledick_johnn [06:07] Pickledick_johnn: 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. :-) [06:07] In package manager, I click "complete removal" and it only selects a single package at a time. [06:07] Berzerker: Thanks, let me try. [06:07] it will say the pacakges are no longer needed [06:07] linux, it works with /dev/sr0, but just copy a little from dvd not all why? [06:07] GuidMorrow: i did not ask to ask a question, thats redundant. [06:07] LucidGuy: often new hardware has to be reverse engineered because the specs are proprietary. That takes time, skill and inspiration, and since laptops use the most proprietary hardware, the newer your laptop, the more likely you are to have problems running Ubuntu on it because the drivers may not be ready yet... [06:07] aj_444: appearance > drag that theme.. [06:07] pickleddick_johnn: have you played with the sound/volume manager already? [06:07] Does anybody know how to make it so you can start Ubuntu up without a monitor attached but still have a GUI to VNC into? [06:08] wolf23: repeat [06:08] losher, With that said.... makes buying a nice new laptop toy not sooo tempting. [06:08] wolf23: please repeat that question [06:08] ekiga dies every time it trys to start my webcam [06:08] dave-ubuntu-1: doing a complete removal. [06:08] wolf23: We've been over this half an hour ago. Because you have to tell dd how much to copy: dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2048 count=2094400 conv=notrunc > dvd.iso [06:08] Berzerker, Terminal said can not find vlc core or package [06:08] LucidGuy: try system76.com [06:08] Qu4R0w: Thanks. :D [06:08] losher: i have to go, can you please help wolf23? [06:09] ful ubunt support [06:09] full ubuntu support [06:09] Is anyone knowledgable in installation via network? [06:09] aj_444: ok [06:09] dell.com/ubuntu also has ubuntu supported laptops [06:09] dave-ubuntu-1: didn't work. [06:09] frankwang: one second.

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [06:09] ya Is anyone knowledgable in installation via network? [06:09] Parsley: PXE. [06:09] Can somebody help?!??!: Does anybody know how to make it so you can start Ubuntu up without a monitor attached but still have a GUI to VNC into? [06:09] sudo apt-cache search shityouwantgone [06:09] or use synaptic [06:09] dave-ubuntu-1, Ive seen them before. How do they do it? Do they build their own kernels or modules? [06:10] frankwang: what version of ubuntu are you running? [06:10] Berzerker: Do I need download vlc and tar. Where?? All vlc I found is through Git or PPA. [06:10] LucidGuy: smart shoppers research the model they're going to buy upfront. People post their experiences putting ubuntu on various models. Choosing one that people report works well with Ubuntu will save you hours of regret... [06:10] rabbitbunny: i found PXE guides but they need to know mac address for client; dunno how i can get that if i just have a simple ethernet cable between host and client [06:10] dave-ubuntu-1: iwlist scanning does not even find network... is there something else that I should check to make sure my wireless is working or not? [06:10] linux: I have tried... [06:10] LucidGuy: Im not sure...i think they try to use hardware that is already supported by ubuntu [06:10] does anyone know if sane supports the Epson Artisan 800 series for wireless network scanning? [06:10] Berzerker: Ubuntu9.0.4 [06:11] losher, makes sense. [06:11] Parsley: mac address isnt essential [06:11] Ubiedoodie: make sure your air card is on :) [06:11] Parsley: If I remember correctly, the mac address is in the hardware, I'd assume you could use a LiveCD to find it. [06:11] Does anybody know how to run Ubuntu with a GUI without a monitor attached? [06:11] ronnie: well when using tftp how does it know to reach client? [06:11] When it comes to the major manufacturers .. who would you guys go with .. example .. DELL, HP, IBM .. etc. [06:11] frankwang: give me a sec. [06:11] I could swear I was able to mount and see the files on my Zune under ubuntu 9.04 the other night...am I going nuts? [06:11] LucidGuy: some models people report they never got working. Avoid those :-) [06:11] Parsley: it works the other way, the client finds the server. [06:11] Ubiedoodie: also try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get update ...after pluging in an Ethernet cablr [06:12] udo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [06:12] rabbitbunny: can it do that if it has nothing but bios on it? [06:12] zigi, well i would first activate remote desktop in startup [06:12] zigi: well i would first activate remote desktop in startup [06:12] Parsley: no, it boots a small image. [06:12] Parsley: tftp and dhcp are different thing [06:12] Brando753: I have x11vnc set up [06:12] zigi: what is the point of running a GUI with no mon? [06:12] Brando753: to vnc into [06:12] woops [06:13] dave-ubuntu-1: so I'd have to mark each package individually then? [06:13] dave-ubuntu-1: to vnc into [06:13] ronnie: which do i need to install ubuntu onto a computer with no OS on it [06:13] ubuntu *should* start without a monitor,,, [06:13] Thanks again Parsley, do you suggest any precautions in order that the flash drive wont get corrupted ? [06:13] zigi: what i once did was system prences remote dektop [06:13] frankwang: type in "pico /etc/apt/sources.list" [06:13] Parsley: if u wanna install os via PXE u have to prepare a server with dhcp and tftp service [06:13] zigi: prefrences [06:13] dave-ubuntu-1: what would that do? [06:13] Berzerker : Can I make other's message disappearanced from Chat window? Too many other's messages makes me toublesome [06:13] pshr: reformat it before you use unetbootin (it will wipe it clean) [06:13] I would love to get a Dell Mini witch comes with Ubuntu preloaded. http://configure.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?oc=ni10vu_f_1e&c=ca&l=en&s=dhs&cs=cadhs1&kc=laptop-inspiron-10 [06:14] brando753: what would that do [06:14] zigi: try disabling gdm and then starting it via ssh before your RDP session === onchoe is now known as BoRiNx [06:14] ronnie: to make a computer a host/server, do I need anything besides an ethernet cable and the tftp software? [06:14] zigi: and then check allow other user to view my desktop, allow other users to control my desktop [06:14] dave-ubuntu-1: would i have to do that each time i want to VNC into it? [06:14] is a linux festival in atlanta are you guys know somethig about it [06:14] brando753: why i have VNC set up already [06:14] Berzerker: It's empty in this files. [06:15] zigi: ubuntu has a built in vnc, you dont need to use VNC [06:15] zigi: i dont know...probally on every reboot [06:15] Parsley: only have to make sure the configure file would be configured correctly [06:15] alright Im done .. im out. [06:15] brando753: but i want to VNC before login so i have x11vnc set up [06:15] zigi: you can boot it with a mon plugged in...then unplug it...and let it run [06:15] frankwang: check my private query. [06:15] Parsley: i mean the bootloader config file [06:15] frankwang: we can talk in there [06:15] copet: http://atlantalinuxfest.org [06:16] dave-ubuntu-1: how do i do that [06:16] Parsley, n00b here so can you just tell me what should i select in partition table [06:16] zigi: once that is done on another ubuntu pc within the LAN or VPN you can go to applications, internet, remote dektop viewer [06:16] default to create an msdos partition table [06:16] would that be cool ? [06:16] yes pshr [06:16] pshr: you working from windows or ubuntu [06:16] zigi: i belive ubuntu's built in vnc supports login one sec let me check [06:16] zigi: plug the a monitor into the pc....boot it r reboot it...then unplug the mon [06:17] dave-ubuntu-1: im confused, how would that fix it? [06:17] the linux festival is just about conferences or is also interaction with all linux community [06:17] Anyone know how to install a package with dependencies on an outdated package, I have already installed an updated version of the outdated package from source [06:17] it wouldnt...its a workaround [06:17] Has anyone installed Listen and got it to work?

I will try later, am getting tired and have about 10 hours just in this issue already... thanx for input.. [06:25] i reccoment using hardware RAID... more efficent [06:26] dave-ubuntu-1, can you tell me how to do it with cfdisk [06:26] opened up the details about the partitions [06:26] dave-ubuntu-1, its not a hardware config q; uz i'm using software RAID [06:26] pshr: okay, now run unetbootin to put all the right stuff on the USB to make it a LiveCD [06:26] pshr im off for the night [06:26] pshr: well, first take the USB out and put it back in again so it mounts first [06:26] hello when i play open arena i cant find any servers!what can i do?

[06:27] yeah [06:28] i have created a primary fat32 [06:28] partition [06:28] hardware does things much more efficentley than software... [06:28] pshr: okay, should get detected and mounted after you close part ed and take it out, put it back in [06:28] arooni-mobile___ contact your mobo manufacturer and see if it supports RAID [06:28] Did that too Parsley :( [06:29] also hardware RAID is platform independent and transparent [06:29] pshr: okay, try this: open up a terminal, you know how to do that? [06:29] yeah [06:29] should i mont manually [06:29] ??

[06:34] pshr: uh...half hour or so for it to download the ubuntu liveCD andinstall it [06:34] pshr: much quicker if you already have an ubuntu.iso image downloaded [06:34] i have specified an ISO that i already have [06:34] yeah [06:34] pshr: ok then dont do a distro, choose iso and select that [06:34] is there a way to have ubuntu server email its daily sys log file - only for that day [06:35] is it just me or is kubuntu nowhere near as good as regular ubuntu with gnome? [06:35] yeah [06:35] hello please, what is date ubuntu developer week, i am of peruviam [06:35] Hi. Is there a way to get a list of the last packages I installed? [06:35] pshr: by any chance, when you said partition editor crashed, maybe you just accidently went to second screen instead? [06:36] its taking time to cross the 5% mark and all the files inside the pendrive folder are locked with root ownership [06:36] would that effect [06:36] mindvirus cant use the package manager and search for it? [06:36] or do you want me do chown -R shirish pend [06:36] ? [06:36] pshr: well its slow at 5% because its copying over a 600MB file (squash something) [06:36] yeah done Parsley === ventti is now known as ventti_away [06:36] Scrape: please type the first few letters of my name and press tab so my client can highlight you.

[06:39] i have two identical seagate 320 gb drives without hardware raid support. is it better to : 1) use one drive as my main guy, and backup nightly via rdiff-backup? or 2) do software raid for mdadm and backup files to s3 every so often? [06:39] Okies [06:39] Parsley, any idea on how to manually unmount [06:39] i cant find an option in the right click [06:40] pshr: in terminal it's umount /where/it/is [06:40] pshr: umount, not uNmount [06:40] says device is busy [06:41] pshr: close everything that's using it like part ed or unetbootin [06:41] are you inside the folder [06:41] closed every thing ... === anom01y is now known as lsemple [06:41] pshr: uh...restart computer, it'll have to unmount that way [06:42] pshr: though just pulling it out isnt necessarily gonna corrupt it [06:42] Parsely - unless its ext2 [06:42] his is fat32 [06:42] well if hes currently sitting in the directory in the terminal it wont umount, so try cd .. then umount [06:42] hmm no idea -- [06:43] ya watch out for your terminal [06:43] there he went [06:43] adios pshr [06:43] lol [06:43] fat32 corrupts easily -- [06:43] ive been rough with my fat32 usb and never corrupted [06:44] you know I don't know if my usb drive is fat32 or ntfs - let me check [06:44] I prefer NTFS because it has hardlinks and symlinks and stuff [06:44] yes [06:45] ive also played rough with my 320gb back up external HDD and though she complains about premature pull-out, never lost anything [06:45] which is NTFS i think [06:45] hello [06:45] need help in squid [06:45] hiii [06:45] Parsley yes, i get complaints about that too. LOL [06:46] it is fat32 -- [06:46] arooni-mobile___: use your 2nd hd to backup your 1st hd with rsync. (raid is recommended if you yave data that has to be backed up immediately) [06:46] i have a fat32 parition -- windows sees only that - but the ubuntu I have on the flash drive, sees both windows and linux [06:47] Windows can only see FATx and NTFS, yeah [06:47] ya windows doesnt bother looking at things that aint windows [06:47] Parley -- yes that's convenient actually [06:47] Parsley: And why should it, if it doesn't support them? [06:48] not saying it's bad [06:48] the one "good thing" about fat32 - almost everybody can read it... [06:48] streaming Internet radio using shoutcast .pls files has stopped working for me - using totem, VLC and audacious [06:48] streams that use .m3u files work [06:48] I'm using Hardy [06:49] hmm I only use m3u for local playlists - didn't know you could stream those [06:49] I suspect a library problem [06:49] victamower: have you tried multiple sites/streams? maybe the one thing youre trying, like last fm, is being zany [06:50] Parsley: yep [06:50] from the command line I type: audacious 'http://stream.npr.org:8002/listen.pls' [06:50] victamower: rebuild your gstreamer codecs maybe? [06:50] let me bounce something off of you -- my friend's kid cruched his flash drive, while it was in the computer - now windows won't boot -- could that have blown the bios perhaps? [06:51] bluey: is part of it still inside? [06:51] http://pastebin.com/m22f3647b [06:51] i don't see how crunching a flash drive would have erased the hard dirve... [06:51] Parsley: apt-get install --reinstall gstreamer-plugin* ? [06:51] ohh good question.... [06:51] hello need help installing a custom boot splash image on my distro.... [06:51] bluey: i'd imagine he did some damage to the usb port and thats sticking bios in some boot infinite loop [06:52] USB 2.0 controllers are supposed to be fork-proof (even the spec says so), so... [06:52] victamower: i think that works, there may be some fancier flag than --reinstall [06:52] squid3...going into hit-only-mode for 5 minutes.. [06:52] Bluey: Does the BIOS itself work? [06:52] and he stop work [06:52] Bluey: As in, do the POST, let you access the setup, etc? [06:52] gravity - I just messaged him -- hope he's still up -- thanks [06:53] Ummmm... I need some help with Xbuntu, can I ask here? [06:53] sure [06:53] Okay [06:53] Might take me awhile to type [06:53] bluey: one way to tell is to extract the HDD and put it in another machine, see if it boots (if it does than ya the bios is having a problem) [06:53] that's okay.... [06:53] i want to install jaunty via RAID1. i have the live cd not the alternative. i need to set up the array so that i have one drive and the other is MISSING (so i can copy the data later). question: 1) Should i use the alternative cd instead? 2) if i can use the live cd; once i create the partitions and array via mdadm will the installer be able to see them to install to? === ventti_away is now known as ventti [06:54] i have ubuntu set to automatically log me in, but I want to try a different window manager. the problem is if I try to log out to get to gdm, so I can switch it, it just instantly logs me back in, so I can't choose my WM [06:54] Parsley -- he's not technically astute - so trying to round up some help for him -- someone who could do just that [06:55] Parsley, i have tried it on other system [06:55] it doesn't boot from the usb [06:55] well i have set up the boot priority [06:55] peepsalot: Then... disable auto-login, and instead enable timed login? [06:55] Removable device first [06:55] peepsalot: So that it would log you in after 4 seconds, for example. [06:55] pshr: you sure the other system can boot from USB? some computers can read USB drives, but will not boot from them [06:56] it sure is showing in boot priority devices [06:56] Okay, so I got Xbuntu working on an old computer. I found an Internet stick and it connected. So far so good. Here's where the problem arises. The network shows 46% activitty, but when I try to get onto Firefox it can't load anything, I have my Internet set to allow, but it still doesn't work! Suggestions please? [06:56] Parsley - true older machines have that problem - I have tried my "ubuntu2go" on several machines - so far so good [06:56] grawity, ah, ok, i just found the preferences for the login screen. I set it up that way during install, so I didn't know where to change it. [06:56] brb [06:56] Lpp: Try going to the terminal, and doing 'host google.com' for example [06:56] Lpp: It might be some DNS problem. [06:57] Okay, I'll try that tommorow [06:57] pshr: hmm, try this one: delete everything off it like before, then use unetbootin, but first put on the distro "super grub" then do it again for your ISO [06:57] Any way to connect it though? [06:57] hey does grub2 work on 9.04? [06:57] bluey: yes [06:57] sweet! [06:57] super grub ? [06:57] bluey: well, i just used it yesterday with a liveCD, not the actual install but should work [06:58] i know it ships with 9.10 but wasn't sure if it would work with 9.04 [06:58] pshr: in unetbootin, choose "super grub" from drop down menu under "distributions" [06:58] bluey: used it on 9.04 [06:58] do you know if they fixed the "launching cache cleaner" problem (caused by kde app running under gnome) [06:59] dunno [06:59] Not fatal, but it is annoying.... [06:59] why not just switch to kde if you want their apps? [06:59] i like gnome [07:00] So how can I fix my problem with my Internet? I'm not very computer literrate... [07:00] hello what do i do if i want to be able to highlight characters with keyboard in emacs? [07:00] Parsley -- I tried running KDE4 -- my conclusion was that it appeared linux was broke.... [07:00] can someone running Hardy please try: sudo apt-get install audacious && audacious 'http://stream.npr.org:8002/listen.pls' [07:00] Hi Every one [07:00] lpp: first you make the internets, then you enjoy them [07:00] I think I have a corrupted library on my system [07:00] Parsley: KDE has better apps than gnome, but gnome has a better desktop. [07:00] <_Trinity_> hi all [07:00] I have question i am using psi and pidgin for google talk but both of them disconnect with out issuing any error . [07:01] note to self -- never remove libqt4core [07:01] victamower: try running update manager, maybe it picks something up? [07:01] Parsley, what difference would it make using super grub ? [07:01] <_Trinity_> did nautilus CD writer utility have the ability to burn bootable CDs back on Hoary? [07:01] i wish there is something like google talk === bayu is now known as nur [07:02] pshr: it may boot where as using the LiveCD's native boot (grub 0.99 i think) will not [07:02] question... my /var/log/auth.log is constantly spammed with "gdm[3523]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): check pass; user unknown" followed by "gdm[3523]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser= rhost=" Anyone else seen this? Any idea what causes it? [07:02] pshr: then again im betting if grub0.99 isnt booting, nothing will [07:02] talkin of usb bootin? [07:02] ya [07:02] installing jaunty from scratch. thoughts on ext3 versus ext4? [07:02] Parsely: ...So, if the Terminal doesn't work then what? I can't get Internet(Router is downstairs, I'm upstairs) [07:02] hmm, Parsley well i was trying to see whether it works on an already ubuntufied system [07:03] Parsley: no updates pending.. this morning my machine had locked up, and since then streaming .pls files hasn't work hence my suspecting a corrupted library [07:03] * pshr thought thinks that it shouldn't make any difference [07:03] pshr: it should most definitely [07:03] * pshr trying now [07:04] is any one here face same kind of issue ... PSi and Pidgin won't work properly if you are using them as google talk [07:04] I've got a question if I may.. How much space would take ubuntu installation on usb.. I'm not guetting it installed in 2 gb [07:04] * Lpp thinks he should go figure out what DNS is =P [07:04] fmsmaster: less than 1 gig [07:04] thanx! but it's not workin for me! :D [07:05] fmsmaster: whats the prob? not booting or not copying to usb? [07:05] stoping copying! [07:05] df -h /media/USB-NAME [07:05] Hi. I've just encountered a problem with synaptic package manager. It appered while I was trying to setup proxy served for my Uni. I have now set proxy back to default but I still get: Failed to fetch http://archive.mitra.net.np/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found . And that from several packages. Anyone now what's happening? [07:06] FMSMaster: hmm, i'd say delete everything, reformat the bugger, try again [07:06] I tried more then 2 times! [07:06] chaff: Probably archive.mitra.net.np didn't mirror those packages for some or other reason. [07:06] FMSMaster: actually reformatted? [07:06] does this have anything to do with the fact that I'm installing from the complete DVD? [07:07] ext3 [07:07] ;) [07:07] grawity: was that one to me? Anyway, I've tried three different servers, including main server [07:07] FMSMaster: it shouldnt, but maybe youre running out of harddrive space or cache [07:07] FMSMaster: so it'd have no temporary space to hold on to the files copied from DVD to USB [07:08] FMSMaster: try a diff format, like fat32 [07:08] it copies it to the hard drive? [07:08] FMSMaster: well, depends how much RAM youre using up [07:08] !songbird [07:08] songbird is a web-browser based media player based on Mozilla. Information and installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Songbird [07:08] 2gb RAM! [07:08] I have a bootable ubuntu -- fits in 4 gig [07:09] FMSMaster: probly not the problem, try a diff format like fat32 [07:09] FMSMaster: i made a bootable ubuntu 9.04 on a 1gig yesterday [07:09] thanx Parsley I'll this! ;) I've read somewhere that ext3 was the best choice.. [07:09] umer: Do you get "Connection Refused" you try to connect to Google Talk with Pidgin? [07:09] but I'll try it! ;) === mirco_ is now known as mirco [07:09] I use reiserfs [07:09] xikteny Pidgin wont' connect [07:09] Okay, can someone give me a SLIGHTLY dumbed down version of what is wrong? I want to connect to my network via usb Interneet, it connects, but won't load ANYTHING EG: Google FTP you name it, so what could be wrong, the router or the USB Stick? [07:09] won't connect [07:10] I looked at ext4 - but chickened out... [07:10] on the usb drive - I used ext2 -- since I didn't want journaling [07:10] also noatime [07:10] lpp: maybe your ISP blocks that computer? like it has a whitelist of computers it will allow internet use per household? [07:10] umer: I sent you a PM... Can you see it? easier to talk in a separate window... [07:11] ok that [07:11] that's great [07:11] lpp: with comcast, i can connect to my house connection, but it wont work unless i have my IP address on a whitelist [07:11] I know my Router blocks computers, iPods etc. that doesn't have a registered MAC adress, but it's registered [07:11] lpp: actually, i think the router/linksys does the whitelisting [07:11] lpp: hmm [07:12] i have a dlink router - and it's like 5-6 years old... [07:13] i just complied wine 1.1.28 and the install didnt upgrade the wine stable version [07:13] And besides, there is a unsecure connection beside me, but it won't let me connect to it. It just stays on the one I'm currently on... [07:13] lpp - can you ping the local ip address? [07:14] Don't know how to do that, I know a teensy bit of Linux, buthow do I do that? [07:14] okay talk you though it [07:14] pm okay? [07:14] Okay [07:16] InputString or StringInput? [07:18] is there a program that waits for keypresses, and gives the hex code or location of the key? I want to know if a button on my keyboard is physically broken or not.

[07:41] hello [07:42] `brandon`: if I remember correctly -- sudo perl -mCPAN -eshell [07:42] !songbird [07:42] `brandon`: And then 'install Net::IRC' [07:42] `brandon`: sudo apt-get install libperl-net-irc or sudo cpan Net::IRC [07:42] !songbird [07:42] <`brandon`> mattwj2002L what are you doing? [07:43] `brandon`: most perl users recommend the use of POE::Component::IRC or POE::Component::IRC::State instead of Net::IRC due to Net::IRC being outdated [07:43] trying to get the bot to get give info on songbird [07:43] !Songbird [07:43] songbird is a web-browser based media player based on Mozilla.

[07:44] #ubuntu.cn [07:44] any russian here???? [07:44] :#ubuntu.cn [07:45] xfiles: /join #ubuntu-cn [07:45] `brandon`: I just described how [07:45] lstarnes, thanks [07:45] !ru | hukpofujl [07:45] hukpofujl: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [07:45] `brandon`: its package name in ubuntu's repos is libpoe-component-irc-perl [07:45] `brandon`: you can also install it via CPAN [07:46] guys.. i tried to recover ubuntu after MS install. i did { sudo grub -> find /boot/grub/stage1 (returned (hd0,6) ) -> setup (hd0,6) which gave me error.. [07:46] Myrtt: thanks [07:47] ? [07:47] help /? [07:48] gnea : ^^^^ [07:50] 'alleluyya brotha [07:52] so to install from my usb drive i would enter sudo dpkg -i /media/My Passport/aim_1.5.286-1_i386.deb [07:52] You need to put that path in quotes, because it has spaces in it. [07:53] so sudo dpkg -i "/media/My Passport/aim_1.5.286-1_i386.deb" [07:53] Yeah [07:53] But isn't that AIM for Linux kinda .... old? [07:54] ;\ [07:54] babyrobbe brotha ola [07:54] Who uses AIM anyway, grawity? =P [07:54] class loading in php is somewhat br0ked [07:54] Callum_: jeff6780 does ^ [07:55] yes i do [07:55] jeff6780: And why are you using such an old client, then? [07:55] its the only official one for linux [07:55] At least it seems old on this page. [07:56] jeff6780: I suggest just using Pidgin or Empathy. While they're not official, they do get updated often (and so far work perfectly with AIM) [07:57] sdf [07:58] is there a better Ubuntu support channel on a non-freenode network? [07:58] Peddy: ##linux? [07:58] Peddy: this is the official [07:58] Peddy: The one we're on is the only official Ubuntu channel though. [07:58] Peddy: in what way better? [07:59] Myrtti, I don't know, this server seems pretty unstable or whatever (or is it just this channel)? I think this is called a netsplit, it's been going on for months... [07:59] Peddy: netsplits happen on all networks [07:59] Freenode is a little unstable at moments - but netsplits happen everywhere. [08:00] OK - it's just, for the last month, every single time I've joined (almost daily) it's been like this. I remember maybe 2 years ago, it was fine. [08:00] "Like this" - what exactly do you mean? [08:01] The ton of joins/parts/quits here isn't a netsplit or anything. [08:01] grawity, netsplit. I'm not exactly sure what it is, but there are a lot of people reconnecting and timing out. [08:01] It's just simply a LOT of Ubuntu noobies with poor connections. [08:01] its also 2 in the morning [08:01] grawity, oh, right - excuse me then. Fail on my part :/ [08:02] Peddy: If there was a netsplit, they: 1) would quit at once, 2) would have "irc.freenode.net some-other-server.freenode.net" as their quit message. [08:02] <`brandon`> !songbird > brandon [08:02] OK, thanks for the explanation. [08:02] n00bs [08:02] <`brandon`> brandon > songbird [08:02] <`brandon`> !brandon > songbird [08:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about brandon [08:02] !songbird > `brandon` [08:02] `brandon`, please see my private message [08:02] <`brandon`> fail === MadMax is now known as Guest67885 [08:02] Peddy, there's 1200-1300 people here on regular basis now. 2 years ago it would have been more like 900-1000 [08:03] `brandon`: You forgot the ``s around your nick. [08:03] <`brandon`> :/ [08:03] <`brandon`> im brandon on other networks. [08:03] <`brandon`> not use to ` [08:04] elky, OK, thanks :P It just seems a little odd that there's almost no people describing problems right now (I guess that's a good thing, though). [08:04] Peddy, ubuntu is perfect [08:04] :-) [08:04] 07:04 UTC, everyone's probably asleep/at work/etc. [08:05] Peddy, things fluctuate over the day, too. for example, it's 5pm here in eastern australia, people are fleeing their computers for home. [08:05] Can someone help with tv-out? [08:05] Hello all.. I have a question I hope you guys can help me. I have downloaded Vbox PUEL, but when I load my XP in Vbox I cant mount the usb stick. I have already add the ubs and enable it, but in devices I can see the USB stick name, but i cant choose it.. Anyone know any solution for that problems? tnx [08:05] Purpley, nvidia or other card? [08:06] I have my TV set up to my 9800 GTX+ Nvidia GPU and have enabled the tv in NVIDIA X Server settings [08:06] Purpley, tc in or tv out? [08:06] it using a s-video cable [08:06] but nothing happens in my tv [08:06] please someone help [08:06] Purpley, use the nvidia config too; [08:07] tool* [08:07] Purpley, nvidia-settings [08:08] oh come on [08:08] Purpley, works fine for me dude [08:13] Hi all [08:13] I'm having hell's own trouble getting either of my two video cards working nicely, on either of 8.04lts or 9.04 [08:13] anyone able to lend a hand? [08:15] Ebonhand, make/model of card? [08:15] I've got two, and tried both [08:15] Ebonhand, what are they '? [08:15] bit of info - I have an nvidia onboard, which I want to use with either a raedon 4650hd or an nvidia 8600gt [08:16] i would start with the nvidias [08:16] Ebonhand, you may have more luck with nvidia troubleshooting [08:16] Ebonhand, so you have 3 video interfaces, actually? [08:16] closest I've got to working was with the nvidias, yep. I drive 3 screens, can get the two on the 8600 working (vga/dvi) but getting the onboard to play nice at the same time is like jabbing myself in the face with a fork [08:16] good for you i have a pc that was 1000 dollar when it came out, now worth less than a pack of gum [08:17] hmm. no one here can answer my question o.O? [08:17] I can swap out the 8600gt for a raedon 4650 - not both at once [08:17] hienvh, ? [08:17] khermans, my question: Hello all.. I have a question I hope you guys can help me. I have downloaded Vbox PUEL, but when I load my XP in Vbox I cant mount the usb stick. I have already add the ubs and enable it, but in devices I can see the USB stick name, but i cant choose it.. Anyone know any solution for that problems? tnx [08:17] Ebonhand, in dont understand -- do you have three cards total? 1 onboard nvidia + 1 other nvidia and +1 oher ati? [08:17] my pc also crashes/hangs when I try to log out, and need to hit the reset switch [08:18] khermans: 3 cards total, but only two in the machine at once.. onboard + either the nvidia or the ati [08:18] hienvh, i believe vbox only allows USB in the commercial version [08:18] I've had no real luck with either [08:18] sorry khermans [08:18] Ebonhand, put in the nvida card along with the onboard nviida [08:18] im really lagging [08:18] its a nvidia card [08:18] Ebonhand, then run sudo nvidia-settings [08:19] and im not sure but i think it may just be the tv [08:19] its an old one [08:19] and the s-video port is for vhs [08:19] is there a ubuntu for dummies book i need it [08:19] khermans, the PUEL version is the commercial version, I have read in forums and they says this version allows USB [08:19] jeff6780, yess [08:19] where do i get it [08:19] hienvh, then if you have the commercial version i would open a ticket with the vendor [08:20] khermans: yep, done that. I can get it all up - closest I've gotten was twinview on the nvidia card and the onboard as a separate server, but switching over to use xinerama makes my machine not even get to a login screen, and I have to hand-edit the xorg.conf to turn it off using a live cd [08:20] jeff6780, amazon.com [08:20] same results on both 8.04lts or 9.04 [08:20] ERROR: Failed to find display device 0x00000002 on screen 1 (on GPU-0) [08:20] while parsing metamode: [08:20] 'CRT-1: nvidia-auto-select @1024x768 +0+0' [08:20] i get the message when i run "sudo nvidia-settings" [08:20] Ebonhand, what is yoru end goal? [08:20] what chmos level should i set a file at to make it writeable from any user account? [08:21] drygrain: chmod a+w file [08:21] khermans: run the three monitors like I do on windows - seamlessly [08:21] rather than the 3rd monitor acting like a separate pc [08:21] khermans, hmm im not so sure how to do that. I have used Vbox before and didnt had this problems, but I will try to fix it, tnx [08:21] Purpley, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [08:21] this file in question is on my apache server [08:21] is it still a good idea to set chmod a+w [08:21] khermans, its a bit difficult for you to answer my question if you don't use it. :) [08:21] drygrain: a+w will give write access to all accounts. [08:21] khermans what is the -phigh for? [08:22] okay [08:22] xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration [08:22] file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20090831032151 [08:22] i get that [08:22] but not any random client acessing the file on port 80 [08:22] correct? [08:22] Ebonhand, you want them to be three screens which you can sweep across right? [08:22] drygrain: Over HTTP? [08:22] correct [08:22] drygrain, no [08:22] okay [08:22] khermans,: yes [08:22] thanks very much [08:22] RHorse, -p is for priority [08:22] what do i do from there? [08:22] drygrain: The httpd won't allow writing to anything unless you specifically set it up. [08:23] Purpley, now sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [08:23] khermans, the application didnt even start [08:23] nothing happens [08:25] khermans tnx [08:25] Hi, I have some problem with my update manager ( http://paste.ubuntu.com/262361/ ). anyone know why is this ?! [08:25] Ebonhand, have you read this yet? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo [08:25] Purpley, what applicaiton? [08:26] reading now, khermans - ty [08:26] v4vijayakumar, your depends are not installed [08:26] v4vijayakumar, sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade [08:26] well [08:26] the command [08:27] Purpley, the command reconfigured your xorg file [08:27] Purpley, then you need to restart GDM [08:27] How do I UNINSTALL uvcvideo? [08:27] khermans: thanks, I will try that [08:27] sayuri, sudo aptitude remove uvcvideo ?? [08:27] no [08:27] sudo apt-get remove uvcvideo does not work [08:27] sayuri, how did you install it buddy? [08:28] i dont think it did [08:28] it gave me an error message [08:28] downloaded from linuxtv, then ran the compile and install. its a kernal for the webcam interface [08:28] i want it gone now. not just modprobe -r uvcvideo, i want it GONE [08:28] sayuri: good luck then, read the readme that came with the package you downloaded... [08:29] Purpley, i saw the output saying it did, so ... [08:29] sayuri, usually sudo make uninstall in the same directory you compiled then [08:29] khermans: I've pretty-much done that already to get the twinview working. it's the 3rd monitor that's the problem [08:29] Purpley, there was no error [08:30] oh i see my bad [08:30] hey is the the colours channel? [08:30] sayuri, like i said -- usually 'sudo make uninstall' [08:30] ／join #ubuntu-cn [08:30] it doesnt have an uninstall build targewt [08:31] sayuri, then just rm the .ko modules [08:31] how, where are the .ko stuff [08:31] sayuri, you can profile the 'sudo make install' to see where it places all files [08:31] then just do the reverse [08:32] theres thousands of files [08:32] sayuri, may the source be with you ;-) [08:32] sayuri, i doubt thousands of files get copied into your kernel to load [08:32] i dont know how to do any of what you said [08:32] sayuri, when in doubt, less README [08:32] first i just wanted the camera to work [08:32] and now i want it to not work [08:32] sayuri, what camera? [08:32] khermans: I just wanted to try kde. full-upgrade removes some packages from my system, http://paste.ubuntu.com/262363/ [08:33] uvcvideo lets the webcam work [08:33] v4vijayakumar, yes it may remove some, but only those that are not in use [08:33] modprobe -r uvcvideo disables it only for the current session [08:33] fast way - remove libqt4core -- [08:33] v4vijayakumar, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop is a meta package that might be better for you [08:34] (not recommended -- it removes most of kde and several apps too!) [08:34] if theres a way to disable the media/video0 or whatever interface it work work better [08:34] sayuri, you can add that command to /etc/rc.local if you like [08:34] then it will never load on boot [08:34] readme says nothing about uninstall [08:34] sayuri, then i would shoot them... [08:34] ;-) [08:34] sayuri, what webcam is it? [08:34] make/model? [08:35] its the crystal one in the Acer [08:35] khermans: thanks, I will try that [08:35] if it was one of those classic usb ones i would just rip it out when im not using it [08:35] but its built into the screen [08:35] and id rather not have to put electrical tape on it [08:35] like i said, use /etc/rc.local [08:36] sayuri, what version of ubutnu you running? [08:36] and add the line before the exit0? [08:36] 9.04 [08:36] sayuri, uvcvideo drivers come already [08:36] since 2.6.26 [08:36] they didnt for me [08:37] but if they did there should be a way to remove them [08:37] sayuri, i told you already how to deactivate it yet you fail to listen [08:37] khermans, i asked you a question of where to put the line [08:37] sayuri, use the blacklists or rc.local [08:37] but you didnt listen [08:37] i asked you "before the exit0?" [08:38] sayuri, when asking questions -- always prepend the targets name [08:38] sayuri, in your question to me, you didnt ask me ... you asked the channel [08:38] hi! [08:38] you have to understand i dont know all the stuff behind linux or irc [08:39] sayuri, thats fine -- [08:39] sayuri, see how when i prepend your name the colors light up? [08:39] but yeah, just tell me, before or after exit0? [08:39] sayuri, if you use a normal client [08:39] sayuri, yes [08:39] Can anyone help with grub boot menu? [08:39] im using xchat [08:39] ok [08:40] sayuri, you can also add to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf [08:40] i tried doing that before and it didnt work [08:40] R0x, ya [08:40] I can't see it anymore, after installing windows [08:40] sayuri, you have to say "blacklist [08:40] R0x, sudo grub --reinstall /dev/sda [08:41] khermans : it would be blacklist uvcvideo? [08:41] wait I show u [08:41] R0x, sudo grub-install /dev/sda [08:41] because I did it and it showed an error [08:41] sayuri, yes, if in the blacklist file [08:41] sigh genius you basically killed the gui [08:41] khermans : blacklist.conf? [08:41] sayuri, ya [08:42] one moment [08:42] sayuri, echo 'blacklist uvcvideo | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf' [08:42] sayuri, echo 'blacklist uvcvideo' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf [08:43] Purpley, that was the point, to reset your settings so you could autodetect your cards and follow the howtos [08:43] grub> setup (hd0) [08:43] Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes [08:43] Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes [08:43] Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes [08:43] Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 17 sectors are embedded. [08:43] succeeded [08:43] R0x: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[08:53] sayuri, yeah that is for your crypto safe [08:53] sayuri, i bet you have autologin, right? [08:55] yeah, it didnt stop it from asking keyring [08:55] it's the /usr/bin/nm-applet that makes the keyring prompt open [08:55] theres a Deny and OK button and place where i enter password but no always allow [08:55] ... [08:56] what version you running? [08:56] ubuntu 9.04, this is unusual, usually this really annoying problem doesnt happen [08:56] all my other 9.04 installs didnt have my wireless applet pop the keyring open every time i boot [08:56] what type of wireless card usb or pci slot?

[09:07] Lakobos: man people [09:07] many [09:07] lol [09:07] i have a question [09:07] ask [09:08] Hello. What does alacarte do to change menus? [09:08] Specifically what files does it modify? [09:08] when i enabled autorun using gconf editor, it doesnt seem to work [09:08] i inserted my usb and cd with auto run files and they did no seem to run [09:09] Lakobos: what sort of auto run files ? [09:10] Anyone know? [09:10] just start synaptic and download the binary [09:10] MindVirus2: the menu's are held within gconf I believe [09:10] hmm [09:11] ikonia: thanks. I'll check it out. [09:11] autorun. inf and autorun.sh [09:12] Lakobos: the .inf file won't do anything, make sure autorun.sh has execute permissions [09:12] it has [09:12] ikonia: where would it be? [09:12] where would what be ? [09:12] Lakobos: can you run it manually ? [09:12] i chmoded it to 777 [09:12] yup [09:12] what does it do ? [09:12] manually has no problem [09:13] it runs a java file in my usb thumbdrive [09:13] Lakobos: ahhh does it need anything like JAVA_HOME or CLASSPATH set [09:13] nope [09:13] when i ran the file normally it works [09:13] Lakobos: yes, but you may have that set - check your env [09:13] i guys...i have installed a program with aptitude command...i would like to view the source code of the command....how can i know where are the source code files???? [09:14] the script managed to execute the file [09:14] babbio: check out the source [09:14] hmm [09:14] Lakobos: yes, but check you your env - it's probably already set [09:14] Lakobos: (it may not be though) [09:14] how to i check? [09:14] lol [09:14] ikonia: but i dont know where is the source code [09:14] jak w grubie dodac windows mam go na sda2 a ubuntu na sda1 nikt mi nie chce dac rady proszę może ktoś sie zlituje [09:15] babbio: you've downloaded/installed the package, but you need to download the source package [09:15] piotr: English please [09:15] !pl > piotr [09:15] piotr, please see my private message [09:15] and how can i do that? [09:15] babbio: sudo apt-get source $package_name [09:15] u need to diwnload the source files [09:15] ikonia thank you very much [09:16] ok i fixed it. there's a bug in the KeyRing. you have to delete and remake the connection, and then log out and back in. [09:16] it doesnt work if you hit Restart [09:16] ikonia: you don't know? [09:16] MindVirus2: don't know what ? [09:16] ikonia: where would it be? [09:16] only if you log out and in again does it let you auto unlock keyring [09:16] MindVirus2: where what would be ? [09:16] ikonia: where the menu config is. [09:17] MindVirus2: it's within gnconf I think [09:17] MindVirus2: it also works from xml [09:17] ikonia: I know. :) Where, would you know? [09:17] What XML files? [09:17] MindVirus2: I think gconf points at xml files for the menu layout, it's been a while since I played with it [09:18] MindVirus2: look at XMLDG_DATA options (I'll check that variable in a moment) [09:18] Trying to find it. :) [09:18] ok my env is configured correctly [09:18] anyway [09:18] hey i have a problem.. im trying to burn some videos through brasero and im using normal blank dvd's when i add the files and click burn its not letting me click on burn [09:19] the autorun still works if i manually click it [09:19] Couldn't find anything. [09:19] MindVirus2: gonf is massive you can't have looked in that time [09:19] ikonia: by the way, at least GNOME with Nautilus does use autorun.inf (for the icon) [09:19] ikonia: search. [09:20] ikonia: I am on an SSD. :) [09:20] grawity: ahhh for the icon, but it won't do anything for auto run [09:20] MindVirus2: but you don't know what you're searching for [09:20] does anyone know why i can't burn videos with brasero?? [09:20] im using ubuntu 9.04 [09:20] ikonia: I searched for "xml" and "XML" in both the key name and data. [09:20] MindVirus2: the option is nothing to do with xml [09:21] hmm [09:21] I figured there would be a .xml for an XML fille. [09:21] MindVirus2: no [09:21] hello?? [09:21] tried changing to .autorun still doesnt seem to work [09:21] I see. Apologies then. What should I try to find, then? [09:22] is there a reverse of "backport" like "forwardport" where you build an older version of a package (f/e libusb-0.1-4 -12 one for intrepid) w/ jaunty, which has -13 ? [09:23] derwin: "backport" means that packages from +1 are included, right? [09:23] MindVirus2: right, I am looking for packages from -1 [09:23] derwin: no such thing [09:24] derwin: Couldn't help you; I never knew, though. [09:24] ikonia: I am, again, deb/ubuntu novice.. is it similar to rpm with spec file and etc, could I just get the "spec" from the previous ver and "hack" it for the +1 ? [09:24] ikonia: I see. Apologies then. What should I try to find, in that case? [09:24] derwin: yeah, not to dis-similar [09:24] MindVirus2: I don't know - I don't know all the options in gconf from memoery [09:25] MindVirus2: as I recall the environment variable was XDG_DATA_DIR [09:25] this is not good, asked a question and no one has helped me.. === thea-afk is now known as theatro [09:25] ikonia: OK. :D Thanks. [09:25] derwin: Maybe http://packages.ubuntu.com/ will be useful for you [09:25] Ikonia: i tries changing to the 3 types of autorun and it cant seem to work [09:26] Lakobos: make sure you use absoulte paths and your env is set in the script [09:26] ikonia: the environment variable is XDG_DATA_DIRS; but there aren't any specific dirs. [09:26] Lakobos: the gnome-shell has a very limited default environmkent [09:26] ya === root is now known as Guest18479 [09:26] grawity: I already searched there and in google, thx? [09:27] the jar file is in the root of my usb [09:27] MindVirus2: yes, but I can't remember them off the top of my head, use alacarte that's what it's there for [09:27] so my script is [09:27] hi [09:27] java -jar xxx.jar [09:27] !away > theatro [09:27] Lakobos: so set the path and environment properly then [09:27] theatro, please see my private message [09:27] the path has no problem [09:27] ikonia: alacarte messes up. [09:28] MindVirus2: it was XDG_CONFIG_DIRS [09:29] The menu items are stored in /usr/share/applications/ and alacarte puts new versions to ~/.local/usr/share/applications/ [09:29] Sick! Thanks. [09:29] grawity: perfect, thank you [09:29] I am sorry to bother you so much ikonia. [09:29] I hope you understand. [09:29] grawity: it's .local/share/applications/ BTW. [09:30] Ah, yeah [09:30] Anyway, the ~/.local/ ones will override system-wide ones (that's how alacarte can edit menus without root privs) [09:30] Right, that's what I thought. [09:31] I knew alacarte did some sneaky stuff. [09:32] all : for future reference, downgrading some packages works just fine - dpkg - warning: downgrading libusb-0.1-4 from 2:0.1.12-13 to 2:0.1.12-12. [09:32] Ikonia: What environment nad path should i set? the java file or java? [09:33] Lakobos: depends what your java application needs, path to java is good, classpath or java_home may also be needed, look at what your shell has go=t [09:33] got === shampoo is now known as shampoonator [09:34] i tierd excuting a script to run the autorun script and it works, so does it means that the path is ok?

[09:36] Lakobos: no - that means YOUR shell is ok [09:37] I want to install the recommends to a package, but not all of them. How do I pick which ones not to include? [09:37] MindVirus2: Install them manually? [09:38] grawity: it's a long list and I would rather not have them set to manually installed.

Is kexec enabled in .28 or .31? [09:57] GuidMorrow: Try Ctrl-alt-F1 a few times. [09:57] when we save rules in firestarter, does it actually save and convert those rules into iptables standard rules? [09:57] is there a log to verify that stuff [09:57] i mean i need gnome to run a script in my usb when i plug it in [09:57] GuidMorrow: a kernel panic is a different thing. [09:57] GuidMorrow: install openssh-server when the screen goes, ssh in to the system and run: dmesg [09:58] and i cant find the sessions under preferences [09:59] Lakobos: its in those menus. I dont have my desktop viiable, but you will see startup items in those menus [09:59] Lakobos: it may be under administration [10:00] ok found it [10:01] so i just need to add the path of the script in my usb, so when i plug it it in it will run? [10:02] je tu nekdo cech [10:02] Lakobos: yeah, it will thenrun when the gnome session starts [10:03] if i remove my usb and plug it in again will gnome still run the script in my usb? [10:04] Lakobos: no, it will only try to run it when you first logon [10:04] hmm [10:04] hello, please, anybody can explain me this ? http://www.trinitycore.info/w/Linux_Build_HOWTO#Configuration_of_Trinity_Core ?

[10:07] what is "X" anyway [10:08] GuidMorrow: the windowing system [10:08] GuidMorrow: it manages the graphical display [10:09] ok thanks i'll go take a look [10:09] Hi, having a problem with my wifi, cannot set it with the console utils but can through the gnome applet. The console utils throw errors for set mode (8b06), set encode (8b2a). Using the gnome applet is not the solution. [10:09] well, how do you get back into the gui [10:09] !X | GuidMorrow [10:09] GuidMorrow: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output.

[10:10] hi every one [10:10] Hi everyone,after an update 'Broadcom STA wireless Driver' is gone from 'Hardware Drivers'!anyone know why ?and how to fix it? [10:10] * grawity downgrades sheetal_286 to sheetal_8086 [10:10] Any ideas what to do with this? Googled a few things (like set mode to managed or speed to auto) and it didn't work, network card is atheros ar242x (hp g60-458 laptop) [10:10] is GNOME and X the same thing [10:11] GuidMorrow: GNOME is the desktop environment. It uses X to draw the panels, icons and so on. [10:11] GuidMorrow: no, X is the base and gnome runs ontop of that === sheetal_286 is now known as agrawal [10:11] GuidMorrow: then the window manager runs on top of that, metacity is defualt or you can run compiz for example === nomed is now known as Guest2725 [10:11] !metacity [10:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about metacity [10:12] !info metacity [10:12] metacity (source: metacity): A lightweight GTK2 based Window Manager. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.25.144-0ubuntu2.1 (jaunty), package size 248 kB, installed size 680 kB [10:12] Metacity and Compiz are window managers: they draw the borders around windows, let you move a window around, and so on. [10:12] GuidMorrow: kubuntu uses kde as the desktop and kwin as the window manager [10:12] hey ppl; how do I totally format the HD ready for a fresh XP install (i'm in ubunut atm and just can't figure out another way of making a dualboot pc unless i clean install XP first!) [10:12] lol windows user [10:12] mattycoze: the XP CD can do that [10:12] anyone an linux programm to watch ebay? [10:13] mattycoze: Boot from the XP install CD, use it to delete all partitions. [10:13] mattycoze: if you want to TOTALLY format it then XP cd do that [10:13] ActionParsnip1 actually it doesn't recognise my HD [10:13] mattycoze: if you want to dual boot without losingthe current system/s you can resize the partitions [10:13] ActionParsnip1 I've already done this. [10:13] and formatted it as NTFS [10:13] (using gparted with the liveCD [10:14] mattycoze: then you will most likely have SATA HDDs and will need either a floppy with the driver on or to remaster your XP CD with the driver [10:14] anyone with the wifi issue? [10:14] what kind of program enables all kind of effects like rotating to another workspace like a cube [10:14] mattycoze: XP CDs dont have muc in the way of SATA drivers so you will need to give the installer the driver [10:14] GuidMorrow: Compiz. === andi_ is now known as elTigre [10:14] ehhh....

[10:15] GuidMorrow: i think you wanna install the compiz-settings-manager package [10:15] GuidMorrow: each app window is used as a texture and manipulated as such so you can have lots of effects on them [10:15] GuidMorrow: sorry, compizconfig-settings-manager [10:15] mattycoze: I doubt XP can use USB mass storage devices for that... you might try. [10:15] mattycoze: then try a usb fdd or remaster the cd [10:15] GuidMorrow: you can enable a lot of cool Compiz effects with that program that are hidden in Ubuntu [10:16] chordogg: 'cool' is questionable [10:16] GuidMorrow: Compiz is a window manager, it is responsible for putting windows on your screen (and doing all the effects). CompizConfig-settings-manager is a program that allows editing Compiz settings and enabling effects. [10:16] ActionParsnip1: Some of them are cool. [10:16] restart required? [10:16] GuidMorrow: No. [10:16] GuidMorrow: no, you dont ever have to restart unless you install a new kernel [10:17] why is it that whenever i try to sudo apt-get something it says the package is not found? [10:17] GuidMorrow: linux is designed to not be rebooted, unlike microsoft OSs that need a reboot after you move the mouse [10:17] ActionParsnip1 grawity how does one remaster the CD? [10:17] is there someway package manager could be blocked [10:17] ActionParsnip1: Or a new driver.

My problem is that I cant access the router using the webinterface anymore...I know this is not very ubuntu related, but anyone where else I might ask the question? [10:45] mmo|: reboot router, or reset it to defs (see manual how) [10:47] Dereck: thanks, but I have some configuration set up that I would prefer not to erease. It must be possible to modify port forwarding options over telnet. My problem is that I accidently set up a port forwarding on port 80 so thats why I cant access the web interface. All I need to do is remove this forward. [10:48] hi [10:49] is there a file where ubuntu stores network configuration? [10:49] i.e actual ip and netmask [10:49] mmo|: telnet and rtfm) [10:49] marko_: Ubuntu uses NetworkManager, which (I think) uses gconf [10:49] !rtfm | Dereck [10:49] Dereck: Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. [10:50] grawity: none of its dependencies include gconf [10:50] grawity: it does use dbus though [10:50] grawity: and hal [10:51] howdy! seeing as we don't use /etc/inittab on Ubuntu, where do I add extra terminals I expect to spawn when I'm booting? [10:51] Dereck: he. Well thanks. I have telneted into the router. My problem is I dont know the commands... [10:51] but [10:51] mmo|: Try using the HTTP interface instead? [10:51] mmo|: If it has one. [10:52] is there a file in /etc i don t know where the actual net conf is stored? [10:52] Q-FUNK: I think Upstart uses /etc/event.d/ [10:52] marko_: check in /etc/network/ [10:53] grawity: my problem is that I cant access the http interface after setting up a port forward on port 80! :-) [10:53] mmo|: see manual for it.. or reset router - it may be easier in your situation [10:54] can somebody please help me with virtualbox?

[11:30] zebaztian: pkill $appname [11:30] erUSUL: We should have http://xkcd.com/627/ in topic [11:30] mueli, with the $ sign? [11:30] zebaztian: No [11:30] zebaztian: to get the PID, I use ps aux | grep $name or pgrep. [11:31] erUSUL thanks will try that [11:31] zebaztian: nope. I'm sorry. That $ sign was supposed to indicate a variable for you to fill out ;-) ... [11:31] what is pgrep ? [11:31] pgrep?? [11:31] Slurpee: a program grepping for processes and returning the PID :P [11:31] mueli, so if it's firefox it's ps aux | grep firefox pgrep ? [11:31] k, never saw it. [11:31] ps aux | grep firefox [11:32] zebaztian: No, it's either 1) ps aux | grep firefox [11:32] kill -9 # [11:32] zebaztian: Or 2) pgrep firefox [11:32] grawity: very true X'D [11:32] zebaztian: no. I'd do a ps aux | grep firefox [11:32] zebaztian: but I never use the PID. I usually kill with "pkill" and give just the programs name. [11:32] zebaztian: like pkill firefox [11:32] ps aux | grep firefox vs. pgrep firefox [11:32] what's the dif [11:33] zebaztian: keystrokes [11:33] Hey guys and chicks :) I got a ASUS laptop and having some trouble making the > key to acctually print the > sybol when writing. the preferences of layout dont manage to include the symbol. Any way to assign the key the right symbol in ubuntu? like the windows has that keymap tihngy? [11:33] zebaztian: pgrep works with a stupid regular expresssion and not able to return multiple PIDs. Imagine you have multiple users logged on and multiple firefoxes running. You just want to kill *yours* but not the other firefoxes. I then use ps aux | grep to find *my* firefox process. [11:33] erUSUL, how do you mean keystrokes? [11:34] zebaztian: pgrep firefox is shorter [11:34] zebaztian: less keys to type. pgrep is 5 keys ps aux | grep is 10 keys to press ;P [11:34] smn_: hm. sounds weird. The hard way would be use xmodmap, but I'd try to find out why ">" isn't printed in first place. You might want to use xev to further debug that [11:35] if it does exacty the same thing, go 4 the shorter one === ballzee is now known as Sinister [11:35] erUSUL, grawity, lexr: It does not do the same thing.

[11:37] what's the problem with that? [11:37] zebaztian, are you in kde? [11:37] i am in both kde and gnome, i switch every log time [11:37] hi! after I had installed the netbookremix for jaunty, each new windows (for example firefox) opens in background, but I can use the newly opened windows (I can write in the google search field for example, but I can't see the firefox windows). [11:37] but it happens in both, when i play with movie player totem or vlc or dragon player [11:37] after a while it gets stuck the video [11:37] and then everything gets stucked [11:38] what gpu? [11:38] gpu? [11:38] your graphics card [11:38] maybe it is the drivers [11:39] so if i have the pid i can also use pkill and the pid? [11:39] lexr, how can i check what type of graphics card i have? [11:39] zebaztian: nope. use "kill" to kill a pid. [11:40] type lspci in terminal and look vor your card [11:40] zebaztian: "hwinfo" / "lshw" / "lspci" are all good to display this. [11:40] muelli i googled the wev and xmodmap and it looks like chineese for me. im not an advanced user of ubuntu nor linux [11:40] or that :) [11:40] zebaztian: you can watch your /var/log/Xorg.0 to see what driver has been loaded. Or grep through "dmesg" output to determine what the kernel has seen.

[11:52] hi,after an update 'Broadcom STA wireless driver' disappeared from 'Hardware Drivers',anyone can help me? [11:52] I mean it's not that trivial. Do you only check file contents? Or including filenames? Or with attributes? Probably with extended attributes? [11:52] Morteza_K: downgrade your driver and file a bug... [11:53] muelli: I have a folder that I would like to burn on dvd as backup. And it would make sense to have a checksum of the folder. To simplify things, and allow easiest access, I don't want to tar everything. [11:54] homy: hm. I'm not aware of any program taking checksums of folders. But I know that brasero, for example, does take checksums and verifies it's burned CD.

[11:58] simplexio: so there is no direct way of creating a checksum of a directory? It doesn't necessarily need to be md5, sha or something else is also ok. [11:59] ibane: good question. I'd look for a suspicious looking file in /proc/ibm :) or somewhere buried in /sys/. Maybe the Thinkwiki has some tips. [11:59] homy: none that i know.. need to make md5sum from all files in path and then test [11:59] ok, thanks [12:00] homy: tar it up, or use diff [12:01] homy: actually that works .. execpt when checking that all files are ok use 'md5sum -c md5sum.file |grep -vi 'OK$' [12:01] muelli can you try to point me in the correct direcction to find out of my charmapping problem? ive seen troguh the xev and xmodmap sites you gave me, but i have no clue on how to implement it.

[12:07] !hu | Vizirovics [12:07] Vizirovics: Magyar nyelvű segítséget az #ubuntu-hu csatornán talál [12:08] No, ubuntu-hu does not working correctly, because on this channel some fool bycicle fan guy... [12:08] ? [12:08] please check the topic of #ubuntu-hu [12:09] Vizirovics: I don't see you on the channel? [12:10] No, I no on that channel [12:11] Vizirovics, please take chat elsewhere [12:11] bazhang brotha why? [12:11] Vizirovics: this is a support channel please read topic for more info [12:12] Vizirovics, here is ubuntu support only; #ubuntu-offtopic for chat [12:12] I would like some support on hungarian language, because that chnnel not trusted! [12:13] Vizirovics: type /j #ubuntu-hu [12:13] I have banned, please understand me brotha [12:13] good [12:13] I am da tukskillah [12:13] Vizirovics: what do you need help with in ubuntu? [12:14] nevermind... [12:14] I wull use the slackware [12:14] ok then [12:14] most better than ubuntu [12:14] have a nice day [12:14] same to you brotha [12:17] i have white pages randomly when i access webpages on my local webserver. when i refresh the page it works, sometimes after the first time, sometimes not. how would i go about finding the cause to this? [12:18] asddsa [12:18] kon: have you had a look through the apache logs? [12:18] anwar [12:19] h1 [12:20] Aegil, the only odd thing i've seen is "Apache/2.2.12 (Ubuntu) (internal dummy connection)" in the logs [12:20] that i have never seen before [12:21] Those are used for mod_rewrite, I think. [12:21] ahh ok === Ph`AFK is now known as Ph` [12:21] hey all, i seem to have lost smart tab completion and colours in the terminal? any ideas? [12:21] artificialexit, do you use bash 4? [12:22] i'm trying to configure synaptic to use a proxy server for downloading packages on my college wifi. the problem is that when i use the command "export http_proxy=http://username:password@address:port/" it doesnt work because my password (which i cannot change) contains the character '@'. please suggest something [12:22] artificialexit: You might have accidentially switched your shell from bash to sh. [12:22] artificialexit: Try 'exec bash' [12:22] how do i know if i use bash 4? [12:22] artificialexit: Ctrl-X, Ctrl-V will show you the version (if it's bash) [12:22] exec bash didnt do anything either [12:23] Hi, I'm just running Update Manager to upgrade to Jaunty; the process seems to have stalled at "Preparing libthai0" - what can I do? [12:23] But I'm using bash4 on Arch, it works just fine [12:23] how up resolution x11 desctop under virtualbox7 anybody help plz ;) [12:23] artificialexit: Press Ctrl-X Ctrl-V, does it say anything? [12:23] i thought maybe the updated has fucked up something [12:23] 3.2.48 [12:23] ah ok [12:23] hellohihi: Have you tried to scape that character? [12:23] artificialexit: So it's still bash. Try 'source ~/.profile' and see if that brings prompt back. [12:23] artificialexit: And 'source ~/.bashrc' too. [12:24] ah i think i know what happened [12:24] kon, watch the language please [12:24] i accidently ran rm -rf /home the other day thinking i was in a ssh server on another server [12:25] some of the . files are missing [12:25] maybe you deleted your .bashrc [12:25] kon: does it spend a long time loading before it gives you the white pages? or is it like instant? [12:25] Aegil, instantly [12:25] yea i restored most of the stuff but .bashrc and .profile is gone anyway to get it back? [12:26] artificialexit: sudo cp /etc/skel/.bashrc /etc/skel/.profile ~; sudo chown $USER ~/.bashrc ~/.profile [12:26] artificialexit: /etc/skel contains the "skeleton" profile, the same all new users get - so copy and chown. [12:26] anyone here got a Intuos4 working.. in buntu [12:27] grawity: thanks heaps worked a treat [12:28] Anyone know how to recover from a stalled update? [12:28] I was attempting to set up a wireless connection, the D-Link 530 could not connect, it did on 8,04 with XP dual boot, but I suggested that Ubuntu be the only OS , is this a MadWifi setup or a ndiswrapper configuration , I have no idea how to do either. Any links would help so that I can e.mail them to self and pull up on the other one that does work with a hardline. [12:30] kon: is it on all browsers or a specific one? Also, is it static pages or php? does the error_log show anything, and have you checked the syslog / tried restarting apache [12:30] can anyone recommend a feature rich, but fast terminal emulator. i love gnome-terminal, but it's a bit slow to start. [12:30] x33a: xterm, urxvt, xfce4-terminal, konsole (this one's from KDE) [12:31] terminator [12:31] x33a: Or just keep it always open. [12:31] And Ctrl-Shift-N for new windows. [12:31] x33a: *shrug* nobody cares about startup times these days. With one open gnome-terminal you're done for the rest of your session. And due to suspend/hibernate a sessions lasts a couple of days or even weeks. [12:31] i have multiple terminals opened, though i have a hot key ctrl+` [12:32] chrislees: I think stopping and starting could fetch or re-ping the FTP server, depends on a few things though, sometimes is just a failed to fetch , server error, that is a re-set Router or reboot thing, sorta. [12:32] muelli: 1) I do, 256 MB RAM 2) suspend/hibernate doesn't work on my laptop === bayu is now known as diana [12:32] i have heard some good things urxvt, any one likes it here? [12:32] *about [12:33] yeah grawity. too bad. But I doubt you can run a modern GNOME desktop anyway. [12:33] muelli: I can. [12:33] x33a: VIM! or nano. there are many. [12:33] muelli: Even with Compiz, for that matter. (I'm using Metacity on Arch Linux though) [12:33] Aegil, it seems like it's a browser issue... thanks for your ideas, i probably wouldn't have checked in another browser for a while [12:34] vigo: It has retrieved all packages and has stalled when unpacking one of them [12:34] grawity: respect :) [12:34] vigo: I tried pressing Control-C but nothing happened [12:35] chrislees: Purge the broken ones then fetch them again, wget or use Update manager, did you try that? [12:35] vigo: It's in the middle of a dist-upgrade in Update Manager [12:36] I'll try killing UM and starting it again [12:36] chrislees: Open Terminal, sudo -s, kill update manager, run apt-get dist-upgrade === kamikalo is now known as kami__ [12:36] kon: okay, cool. N [12:37] chrislees: ahh, seems like a purge or fix , look at dh scripts, I had it bookmarked at sometime, google Debian Helper there is a Canonical page on that. [12:37] grawity: Unable to lock the administration directory, is another process using it? [12:37] kon: so its working fine in an alternative browser? fair enough, which were you using that was giving the errors [12:37] chrislees: Kill all instances of apt-get and dpkg too. [12:38] try pkill instead of kill [12:38] grawity: I've killed dpkg (didn't have an apt-get instance running) but it's still appearing in ps aux as: [12:38] [dpkg] [12:39] Aegil, yep haven't experienced any white pages yet in another browser. the browser causing this was firefox, but using some addons. === norway_ is now known as NorwayGeek [12:41] Where's the dpkg lock file, is it safe to remove it and then try the dist-upgrade again? === nabeel is now known as Guest27482 === NorwayGeek is now known as NorwayGeek|Away [12:43] !dpkg [12:43] dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. [12:43] !search dpkg [12:43] Found: debconf, xconfig, apt, dpkg fix crash, debootstrap, aptlock, dpkg crash fix, adept-crash-fix, dpkg [12:43] !aptlock | chrislees [12:43] chrislees: If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [12:43] I just formated by external HD, but it seems that only root can write to it, any idea how to fix this? [12:44] poet: CHMOD 664 (path to external drive) [12:45] erUSUL: Thanks, but it's still locked. [12:45] poet: what file system did you put on it [12:45] I think dpkg is a zombie [12:45] ikonia: ext3 [12:46] poet: use gksudo nautilus to set/change permissions if you are not confident on the command line [12:46] Hey can I run something to watch what a program downloads over http? [12:46] well I did chmod and now it wont mount anymore, weird [12:46] lantizia: iftop [12:46] !dpkg fix crash [12:46] If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [12:48] Myrtti, that doesn't seem to give me the path it's downloading from [12:49] chrislees: erUSUL posted it well, here is a MAN page on it: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/man1/dpkg.1.html === feisar is now known as Guest96704 [12:50] Hi, I can not find the 'view' > 'Data sources' option in the Ubuntu version of openoffice. Anyone tell me where it is? === hfsdo_ is now known as hfsdo === christian is now known as Guest77011 [12:52] I can't find anything regarding it in the man page for dpkg [12:52] chrislees: was that to me? [12:53] Guest96704: No sorry [12:53] chrislees: s'ok [12:54] chrislees: whats the problem? [12:54] Thanks to vigo, erUSUL and others; I removed the dpkg lock file and it configured some more packages [12:56] slug: Dpkg became a zombie during a dist-upgrade, I removed the lock file and now I've got unmet dependencies [12:58] chrislees: Always remember a backup of a stable system or the stable system is a good practice to follow before something goes wrong or gets jumbled up. [12:58] hi maybe not he correct place., but I dont where to ask this. Please advise which channel to go. [12:59] RealKillaz: What's your question? [12:59] vigo: That sounds like the sort of advice that I would give, at times when I'm not messing around with my system without an OS backup [12:59] I want to know what the maximum ports (same port) you can open on a machine [12:59] for example port 7001 [13:00] RealKillaz: A TCP port must be in the range of 1 - 65535 [13:00] grawity: that is not my questionb [13:01] one more time my question is how many connection can I open to a specific port for example 7001 [13:01] RealKillaz: one program can use it anyway, dont think connections is limite [13:01] That's not what you asked first -- but I don't think there is a limit for incoming connections. [13:01] RealKillaz: torrent programs for example have plenty of connections on only one port [13:01] chrislees: a backup is always good advice, lawd knows I have messed some boxes up bad! THat is just advice or suggestion that I am unable to find a better solution for. [13:03] notwist: well last time a certain application crashed and we think its due to alot of incoming connection on this port [13:03] notwist: but can't proof this actually [13:03] RealKillaz: Is it a server? [13:04] RealKillaz, I think it would depend on the app accepting the incoming connections, Apache is designed to accept probably millions but others may only accept 1 [13:04] notwist: there is not theoretical max on the amount of connection on a certian port? [13:04] mnaines: yup [13:05] RealKillaz: Log files should show it, and should also show what the error or good working order is. [13:05] RealKillaz: Then you have a limit...Either a limit in bandwidth or a limit in the number of connections. I know with most Windows server operating systems, they default to 10 connections and you need a license for each connection === Thoben is now known as Thoben^Away [13:06] mnaines: ohh wait it's an application it's called jetty. it can be used as an embede web container/server [13:06] Phew the update is working again, libthai0 was waiting on a package to be manually configured [13:06] maybe I should ask on the jetty forum [13:06] RealKillaz: So its like Apache? [13:07] mnaines: well it's more for j2ee applications [13:07] sweet [13:08] RealKillaz: or in channel #jetty [13:08] legend2440: I just went in there...There's only about 10 users, and it doesn't appear to be very active [13:08] legend2440: yup just did that [13:10] RealKillaz: http://www.mortbay.org/jetty/ [13:10] RealKillaz: support resources on there [13:10] including the comercial support options [13:11] RealKillaz: Did you try the Yahoo groups? [13:11] hello when i search for servers in open arena i find only one server i tried to change filters but in vane .what can i do? [13:12] groza: maybe only one server is active that is compatible with your client version [13:12] RealKillaz: I found this link: http://marc.info/?l=jboss-cvs-commits&m=104133636031279&w=2 [13:12] groza: :) not exactly an answer.. but 'QuakeLive' now works in linux. :) If ya like that sort of game [13:12] ikonia:and what should i do? [13:12] groza: contact the package mainterin or the server mainterins === Aladdin_ is now known as Aladdin [13:12] maintainers sorry [13:12] groza: be sure you are not searching the 'local lan' for games perhaps. [13:13] dr_willis:i am searching the internet not the lan [13:13] Dr_Willis: I lub Quake-like games, MMORPG stuff? [13:13] groza: Do you have the most recent version of the game? [13:13] dr_willis:could you give me a link please? [13:13] mnaines:i dont know [13:13] quakelive.somthing.. [13:14] proberly quakelive.com just a guess [13:14] mnaines:there is an update or something? [13:14] groza: Tremulous is one of my favorites, and can be found through Synaptic [13:14] mnaines:i downloaded it from synaptic it should get the last version itself [13:14] groza: that will be the latest ubuntu packaged version === dtcrshr_OFF is now known as datacrusher [13:15] ikonia:ok [13:15] thanks to all [13:17] is there a non-bloated msn client for linux? [13:17] JohannesSM64, emesene is nice [13:18] Hi, I'm trying to cut down a command I run "find /var/qmail/queue/ -type f -exec grep -l [someone@somewhere.com] {} \;" the [someone@somewhere.com is variable everytime, does anyone know a way I could automate it so I could just name a script eg script user@domain.com so it would input that value inplace of [someone@somewhere.com] and run it? [13:18] JohannesSM64: amsn is fine [13:18] JohannesSm64: Pidgin [13:18] JohannesSM64: pidgin [13:18] all these 3 have bloat like dancing smileys, winks and nudges [13:18] JohannesSM64: ok, bittlebee [13:18] pidgin hasn't dancing smylies [13:19] oo [13:19] JohannesSM64: that's a text based client [13:19] I've automated most stuff so far using alias's but Im not sure the best way for automating something I need to pass a value to in the middle of it. [13:19] Aegil: that is going to be quite slow too. Anyhow it is pretty easy to turn that into a script. There are many shell scripting tutorials and the first few pages of any will show you how to do what you want. [13:21] Aegil: time to read some bash scripting guides.. making a script that takes an 'argument' is rather basic stuff. [13:21] Aegil: the 'advanced bash scripting guide' is a must read. [13:21] hi im new to ubuntu , im trying to edid the gpodder config file to a different drive can anyone help [13:21] i need it on the drive /StorageXU/Podcasts [13:22] but i think i have the drive allocation wrong [13:22] smokebadger, do you want the actual config file there or is that where you want the podcasts to download to? [13:23] the drive is named StorageXU , the directory podcasts and i want the podcasts to dl there so i can access them from any of my OS [13:23] Walex: Okay, I'll take a look for some thanks. [13:23] Dr_Willis: I'll go have a read of it, thanks for the pointer [13:23] smokebadger, where is StorageXU mounted? [13:23] smokebadger: you could just make a link from where they are going to.. to that location you want. :) via use of 'ln -s' [13:24] im not sure its a partition of the ubuntu /xppro drive [13:24] im really new to all this sorry hehe [13:25] its just in places as StorageXU [13:25] smokebadger, you need to know the mount point in order to point to the correct location [13:26] smokebadger: its very likely thes some easier way to config that then messing with its config files. Program has no gui/settings menus? [13:26] my IBM ThinkCentre with integrated Intel graphics card is using the Vesa driver in xorg.conf - what is the process for switching to an Intel driver? [13:26] yes but they dont work the faq tells you to edit the config file === optimus_ is now known as optimus_p [13:26] !intel [13:26] Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support.

[13:28] pascal - thanks wilco [13:28] * pascal_ takes Zappo and grawity back into the room [13:28] :D [13:28] its /dev/sda2 so i would change the config to /dev/sda2/Podcasts? [13:29] * grawity ports pascal_ to C === marko_ is now known as mark000 [13:29] smokebadger: no /dev/sda2 is the DEVICE name. not its mountpoint [13:29] smokebadger: check 'mount' command to see where its mounted to [13:29] C ? [13:29] o0 [13:29] pascal: merely states "no proprietary drivers in use on this system." when i run sudo jockey-gtk [13:30] optimus_p: machine is restarting?? any help? is like me saying my car wont start, any help? [13:30] im trying to do a search for it =/ [13:30] hmmmm [13:31] have a slight problem... ethernet interface has mysteriously stopped connecting to the router by cable. router is unchanged, cable connection unchanged, Ubuntu *says* it's connected, but conky's logging keeps says eth1: link up over and over, and no network or internet connection will work [13:31] TheStarLion, from the terminal type: ifconfig eth1 [13:32] assuming that is the expected device name [13:32] joaopinto: it is, what am I looking for in the results from it? [13:32] hello ,when i play virus killer i have no sound why? [13:32] the list is /dev/sda2: UUID="6ED02F796BB3A8B5" LABEL="StorageXU" TYPE="ntfs" [13:32] is it the default for external HDs to get mounted so only root can read them? [13:33] I assume you use dhcp, check if you got an IP setup on the interface, and it's up [13:33] smokebadger: yes. /dev/sda2 is the device name. IT is most likely mounted to /media/StorageXU check with the 'mount command' or just Look in the /media/ directory [13:33] poet: depends on the filesystem and if you are taling about the 'automounting' feature or not. [13:33] joaopinto: there's the rub - it says it's connected, with an IP address, but network and internet still aren't working [13:34] yeah I'd like my external hd just to automount and appear in nautilus [13:34] hello ,when i play virus killer i have no sound why? [13:34] TheStarLion, can you ping your router ? [13:34] but it does appear it gets automounded in /media/ just with root [13:34] breaking news: new distro: ubuntu vatican edition built in gratis pray-editor [13:34] !ot | kockacuki [13:34] kockacuki: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [13:34] *automounted [13:34] joaopinto: no, well, can, but none of the pings return [13:34] yes it appears to me /media , soo the command would be /media/StorageXU/Podcasts ? [13:34] poet: if its ntfs/vfat - install/run the ntfs-config tool. You never said what filesytem it is. [13:34] sorry, it is ext3 [13:35] smokebadger: the 'path' to the filesystem is /media/StorageXU [13:35] hello ,when i play virus killer i have no sound why? [13:35] poet: with ext2/3/4 you MUST be sure your file ownership/permissions are correct. [13:35] TheStarLion, check /var/log/dmesg for errors that could be related to the networking setup [13:35] TheStarLion: do you know for sure that the router is fine? used differnt network port, have another pc in the net that *can* ping the router? [13:35] ahh thank you , i come from the fat lazy windows drive system 9) [13:35] ubotti mi a repedt fasz van? [13:35] poet: and you may want to put a entry for the filesystem in /etc/fstab [13:35] ubottu mi a repedt fasz van?

For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat [13:35] nibbler_: Yes, because this laptop is connected to it the same way as the desktop pc with the issue [13:35] Dr_Willis: where should I check for that? [13:36] what determines what permission the disk is mounted at [13:36] poet: ls -al, same as you would for a internal drive. :) [13:36] poet: for ext2/3/4 the filesystem rembers.. for ntfs/vfat its a mount option [13:36] cc [13:36] hello ,when i play virus killer i have no sound why? [13:36] poet: thats a Big Differance btween how ntfs and linux native filesystems work [13:36] !patience | groza [13:36] groza: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. [13:37] and its working , thank you all very very much [13:37] smokebadger: that directory/path wont be avail untill you login and access it - if you reboot.. Most likely [13:37] TheStarLion: did you change cable/switchport? [13:37] Halitech:my questions gets out of the windows and like that nobody can see it , thats why i keep repeat it [13:37] groza: not everyone has a short history buffer on screen... [13:38] some of us can see quite a few lines. :) [13:38] nibbler_: yes, tried both cables available, and all four ports on the router, all work perfectly on the laptop, just not the desktop pc [13:38] groza: but in a channel like this your question will scroll away very quickly. please wait 10 minutes before repeating. [13:38] Its stopped throwing up the error and it appears to be downloading , i just hope its in the right place hehe [13:38] Dr_Willis: do I just need to modify the /media/disk permissions how I want? [13:38] and it will be the same after I restart [13:38] poet: its ext2/3/4 you modify them with chown, and chmod [13:38] IdleOne:ok [13:39] yeah I made it part of the disk group and added myself to it [13:39] hi guys, what's the X log out command? [13:39] and then did chmod 775 [13:39] groza: try searching the forums for that game for help also [13:39] joaopinto: the dmesg log doesn't seem to say anything out of the ordinary about the network setup, nothing that wasn't there a few days ago [13:39] poet: the files themeslefs can have their own permissions. and owner. the owner may be the issue. I nust chown everything to be owned by my one user. :) [13:39] IdleOne:i tried but all i get is sound problems with other apps [13:40] Dr_Willis: ok, that might be simplier. thanks for the help :-) [13:40] poet: and if you move that drive from one linux box to another.. you can have ownership issues [13:40] good point [13:40] poet: thats why i add the users to every linux box i make in teh same order. :0 that way their UID's are the same [13:40] almost seams more convenient just to format it as windows haha [13:40] nfs rather [13:41] poet: depends on your needs. [13:41] ntfs/vfat may show everything as executable.. which is an annoyance [13:41] and ext4 can be MUCh faster [13:41] s0u][ight: do you mean sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ? [13:41] Dr_Willis: why not install NIS or similar? [13:42] legend2440, a better thing: how do I enable ctrl-alt-backspace?

[14:50] it seemed work well, but this time I found there were still lots files "no such file or directory" even with just ls [14:50] Hello [14:50] <_marius> Halitech: i also tried to install windows in virtualbox and use it there but is also not working [14:50] Can anyone help me out with Linux permissions? [14:50] I'm running a Linux LAMP stack [14:50] with Samba [14:50] the I reattached back to PC, worse, My PC found lots of files "no such file or directory" too! [14:51] and most of them are the same on NAS [14:51] _marius, I know there is something about the address that shows in lsusb that you use to determine the address for modprobe but I don't know how to figure it out [14:51] it means I couldn' [14:51] it means I couldn't use the old trick now~ [14:51] ubottu , yes i know but is not for linux is for windows partitions [14:51] I changed the user/group of /var/www to www-data [14:51] erUSUL: what do u mean? [14:51] thinkertinker: System>Preferences>Network Proxy ? System>Preferences>Network configuration ? [14:51] now I can't access my Samba share [14:51] I changed the user/group of /var/www to www-data, now I can't access my Samba shares through my windows clients, I can SEE them but I can't open them. Permission denied :( [14:52] leira: that if fsck is not showing errors i dunno what it may be the problem. without symptons is difficult to diagnose a problem .... [14:52] erUSUL: yes, I know, but is there any direction I can go [14:52] ? [14:52] <_marius> i need help with winfast tb usb II deluxe tv tuner in jaunty [14:52] how to configure proxy settings for internet?using terminal?? [14:53] or, is there any stronger fsck arguments I can use? [14:53] leira: reformat ? [14:53] <_marius> anyone got it working? [14:53] I changed the user/group of /var/www to www-data, now I can't access my Samba shares through my windows clients, I can SEE them but I can't open them. Permission denied :( Anyone have a clue how to fix this? === m4v_ is now known as m4v [14:53] erUSUL: WOW, well I did have a nother copy on another USB drive, which i was saving for another use, but to copy so many files will take a whole night [14:54] erUSUL: and the problems is not all the files have this issue, only some of them~ [14:54] and when I df, it obviously all these files consuming the disk~ [14:55] leira: maybe the disk is (physically) damaged on that particular place ? used the -c to fsck to mark badblocks ? [14:55] they are there, just can't be read~ [14:55] good, I will give it a try~ [14:55] leira: man e2fsck [14:56] hello [14:56] !hi | Kottizen [14:56] Kottizen: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [14:56] erUSUL: how about -D? [14:56] gracias a todos/tnks to all [14:56] erUSUL: thanks [14:56] I changed the user/group of /var/www to www-data, now I can't access my Samba shares through my windows clients, I can SEE them but I can't open them. Permission denied :( Anyone have a clue how to fix this? [14:56] erUSUL but he has configured them by editing some .conf file doesn't remember which..his firefox is connected but not other applications [14:56] hi everyone === sharperguy2 is now known as sharperguy [14:57] Greentoad : sudo ^^ [14:57] Hello! [14:57] Sudo what? [14:57] I issued a sudo chmod 775 [14:57] I issued a sudo chmod 775 -R /var/www [14:57] but still no result. [14:57] thinkertinker: ahhh ok then it should be /etc/apt/apt.conf or something in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/* [14:58] I issued a chwon and chgrp to www-data [14:58] hi guys! i forgot the name of an app that you can use to stitch 3 screenshots together at a slight angle and with a dropshadow [14:58] GREENTOAD: you chown'd /var/www? [14:58] yeah === tiago is now known as Guest16209 [14:58] bad call? [14:58] test [14:58] this is my first LAMP server.. [14:59] GREENTOAD: yeah... [14:59] :( [14:59] Well, what should the default user be [14:59] GREENTOAD: Why are your samba shares in /var/www ? [14:59] because our web developer accesses it remotely [14:59] <_marius> i need help with winfast tb usb II deluxe tv tuner in jaunty. anyone got it working? [14:59] leira: is a option not to fix but to optimize things. i would use it at some other time in the fuure when the partition is trouble free [14:59] I have two samba shares, one in /var/sambashare (that I created) and one in /var/www [15:00] why doesn't your web developer use SCP [15:00] I don't know, its just easier this way [15:00] GREENTOAD: You should put an option then to the smb.conf file to map users to www-data [15:00] ohhh [15:00] I see [15:00] thats a good idea [15:00] Hi [15:00] hi Cuppa [15:00] but www-data is just apache2 [15:00] theo nly people who access this server from the inside is from my private network [15:01] erUSUL we had to authenticate via a wi fi network so he added his username and password too in that file.. any new guesses?? [15:01] then can't people from the outside acess my samba shares? [15:01] www-data is an Apache2 user. [15:01] I've been having trouble getting my system to recognise USB, and can't find anything useful on google.. could anyone tell me where to look please? [15:01] hello [15:02] GREENTOAD: you could also edit your samba configuration to only accept connections from your private LAN addresses [15:02] ah I see [15:02] Do you have any tips or a URL i can reference from? [15:02] I've only edited my smb.conf file to add and remove shares [15:02] the fast user switcher applet has been moved outside of the right area of the upper panel in GNOME. How do I move it back to the right of the clock? [15:02] I forget how it works, you can either limit it by interface (if you have separate inside/outside network cards) or only allow certain IPs if you are using only one network card [15:03] thinkertinker: ... wpa_supplicant.conf ? /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf ? dunno... [15:03] Cuppa: What kind of usb device? [15:03] I can limit it by IP's [15:03] IP's what? [15:03] GREENTOAD: I believe "host allow = 192.168.0.0/24" or similar would work [15:03] ah Thanks G_A_C [15:03] in the [global] part of your samba config [15:03] so would this fix the permission denied problem? [15:03] try "man smb.conf" or something though to check, I haven't used samba in a good while [15:03] and [15:03] should I change tyhe owner of /var/www [15:03] back to the user [15:04] because right now www-data owns /var/www [15:04] no, but that would make sure that no one from outside your network would be able to access the Samba share [15:04] its the only way I got around the fopen() function permission problem [15:04] how do i make an extended partition from the partitioner in the server-edition installer? [15:04] hi guys, what is the easiest, most no nonsense way of getting a WORKING version of flash on my system which will play flash smoothly and without using 100% of my e8400 cpu? [15:04] there doesn't seem to be any menu items for it [15:05] adante: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [15:05] bunny: maybe there is one already on the disk ? [15:06] bunny: ok i have that version and it uses 100% cpu and doesn't play flash smoothly - i should note this system can play h264 and opengl games without problems so i'm fairly sure this is not a x specific problem [15:06] erUSUL: no, this is after creating a fresh partition table [15:06] bunny: it should be partiton new (if there is unallocatd space of course) [15:06] OK well thanks [15:06] perhaps its a bug? [15:07] I have 2 screens. I need to be able to control which screen a program appears on with the DISPLAY variable (launching from command line). This isn't working - I think due to desktop spanning. How can I turn spanning off? [15:07] Or if anyone knows how to get the system to recognise USB? [15:07] erUSUL: it's a 40 GB HDD, with nothing on it [15:07] bunny: Partition>New (Crtl + N) [15:07] jt1234: If those 2 screens share a single X.org session, then they will share a single DISPLAY too, I think. [15:08] Cuppa: What kind of usb device? [15:08] <[t0rc]> I need suggestions for excellent, lightweight, code editing applications (like Geany or something similar with syntax highlighting but like Eclipse) [15:08] erUSUL: this is from a livedisc of ubuntu-8.04.3-server-i386.iso [15:09] [t0rc]: like eclipse in what regard ? [15:09] erUSUL: I select "English", "install ubuntu server", then go through all the steps until I get to partitioning [15:09] bunny: ahh ok so is the partitioner that shows up during install [15:09] erUSUL: yeah, exactly [15:09] <[t0rc]> erUSUL, my apologies - not like eclipse (no "intellisense", etc.) [15:10] Creating a bootable USB key but ubunut.com downloads .img file not .iso. Can you help me? [15:10] <[t0rc]> sounds like he should wipe the drive with something else before trying the install eh? [15:10] erUSUL: I actually /create a new partition table/ by selecting the device itself and pressing [enter] [15:10] [t0rc]: any editor for linux has syntax higlight even nano gedit scite there is allways vim an emacs [15:11] <[t0rc]> richm4n, use ubuntu.com instead of ubunut.com :P The site has always let me download a *.iso. Try a different mirror perhaps? [15:11] erUSUL: that works just fine, but then when I go to select the unpartitioned space to create a new partition in it and choose "logical", it just creates a regular primary partition [15:11] richm4n: maybe is an image you can directly dd to the usb [15:11] i feel like its got to be a bug [15:12] hey ubuntu world [15:12] i am from greece [15:12] t0rc: thanks. Yeh, I meant ubuntu. I picked the canonical mirror. Jus try anothr. [15:12] richm4n: sudo dd if=file.img of=/dev/sdx [15:12] !img | richm4n [15:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about img [15:12] oop [15:12] and i am searching for greek servers [15:12] teah, what erUSUL said. [15:12] how can i find them? [15:13] bunny: could be; just partition the disk with gparted before doing the install. then during install just enter the desired mount points [15:13] richm4n, the img is netbook remix btw [15:13] join #seam [15:13] erUSUL: the problem is, the machine seems to be incompatible with X [15:13] is there any system wide equalizer for ubuntu 9.04? [15:13] akrovatis: Try #ubuntu-gr [15:14] erUSUL: thx. I'll look up dd! [15:14] is it possible to upgrade from LTS to LTS? [15:14] bunny: use parted from cli (or cfdisk or fdisk ...) [15:14] zk: yes; is a feature that should work 6.06 --> 8.04 [15:14] !gr | akrovatis [15:14] akrovatis: #ubuntu-gr και #kubuntu-gr για Έλληνες χρηστές / #ubuntu-gr kai #kubuntu-gr gia Ellhnes xrhstes [15:14] just write this in server window? [15:14] rain_: no [15:15] erUSUL, nice thanks! [15:15] nah [15:15] is there a way to update from 7.10 to the latest version without losing my websites and dns server configuration and so on? [15:15] erUSUL: parted is the one with like a shell-interface, right? [15:15] Is there a way ignoring "character-case" in find command ? [15:15] then windows xp > ubuntu === iAlex is now known as Guest9841 [15:15] bunny: yes [15:16] how ? [15:16] erUSUL: okay, i think i know how to use that [15:16] thank you very much [15:16] someone plz .. Is there a way ignoring "character-case" in find command ? [15:16] erUSUL: actually, now that i think about it, i think i've thought of and /tried/ it [15:16] pranav: use -iname [15:16] bunny: cfdisk is curses so should be pretty straightforward too [15:16] pranav: and read the freaking manual [15:16] erUSUL: ahh, cool [15:16] hey guys, im trying to enable DRI (Direct Rendering) on my ATI 4870 video card, anyone know how? [15:17] now are both of those accessible from loading up the livedisc -> rescue a broken system -> [esc] -> "execute a shell"? [15:17] Thanks grawity [15:17] deany: thx. I have an Acer ASPIRE one that's refusing to access the hard drive. I was trying to download the netbook remix to fix it but I'll try the standard so that it is an ISO file. === Guest9841 is now known as NorwayGeek [15:18] richm4n, youll need to use usb-creator or unetbootin then to make usb [15:18] erUSUL: sorry, i'm repeating this in case you missed it the first time due to the lack of me mentioning your nick within the message. [15:18] erUSUL: now, are both of those accessible from loading up the livedisc -> rescue a broken system -> [esc] -> "execute a shell"? [15:19] deany: s'ok, I'm happy with Desktop edition. I can always convert to netbook using Synaptic. It's coming down now. Brill. Thanks! [15:19] g0tcha: upgrade shouldn't loose configurations... but a backup of the conf files is not hard either. user data (websites) is not affected [15:20] bunny: the livecd does not boot for you ? or are you using alternatecd ? [15:20] no, i'm using ubuntu-8.04.3-server-i386.iso [15:20] the regular desktop livedisc stops when it gets to a plain orange background, but i think that's an issue for another day [15:21] bunny: ah; never used it myself... then fire up a shell [15:21] erUSUL: never used /what/? [15:21] bunny: the server cd [15:21] erUSUL: oh, i see [15:21] how mplayer play .rmvb files [15:22] hey guys, im trying to enable DRI (Direct Rendering) on my ATI 4870 video card, anyone know how? [15:22] hi [15:22] erUSUL: well, the way it works is it walks you through different modules, each with curses interfaces, and they all flow into eachother seamlessly [15:22] !flash [15:22] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [15:22] bunny, just to confirm, you do know that the server cd does not have a gui installed on it [15:22] bunny: yes like the alternatecd [15:23] erUSUL: but on each one, they have an option to "go back", which leads you to a menu from which you can pick a module out of the standard sequence [15:23] Hi, if I create a bash script with a launcher, and I drag a file, like file.txt onto the launcher, then it will launch my script with the full path to the dragged file as the argument. If I drag 2 files, then it will launch 2 instances of the script, each with one of the files as the argument. Is there any way to make it launch 1 instance with both files as 2 arguments? [15:24] erUSUL: one of which is to "execute a shell" [15:24] hi need some help sync'ng HTC Prophet and evolution [15:24] erUSUL: yeah, thanks, I am fully aware of this. its fine, since i am actually using this for a server [15:24] bunny: ok; execute the shell and see if you can use cfdisk on your disks from it [15:24] hi guys [15:25] erUSUL: okay, you think it will be available? [15:25] bunny: it should be [15:25] would anyone be able to help me with a little problem i've been having? [15:25] erUSUL: okay, thanks! [15:25] bunny: no problem [15:25] erUSUL: is there any place for me to file a bug w/o having to register or something? [15:26] Hi all, is there a way to auto autenticate proxy server for a firefox user using a ldap network? [15:26] com.br [15:26] murielgodoi: Firefox supports Kerberos (HTTP Negotiate) over HTTP, might be useful [15:26] !bugs | bunny [15:26] bunny: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » If that fails, you can report bugs manually at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [15:27] my mplayer play rmvb files have sound but no video, what should i do? [15:27] erUSUL: actually, i think it is a slightly limited environment, upon entering into the shell it shows you a little warning about how you can run "help" to see what unix util's are available to you, and how the editor that's available to you is nano, which is really simple and easy to figure out... [15:27] could anyone please pastebin a ~/.bashrc ? I'm not on my Ubuntu box right now, and I need one :( [15:28] I have a new ATI driver from AMD's site i would like to install, but it says i need to uninstall the old driver first, how do i do that?

[15:28] :] [15:29] grawity: XD [15:29] MaGicMaX1: Its probably better if you use the envyng utility to download and install the latest drivers [15:29] gotunandan: ok thats in the repos? [15:29] erUSUL: still think it'll be available? [15:30] MaGicMaX1: yes it is, $ sudo aptitude install envyng-gtk [15:30] grawity: sounds interesting.. I will take a better llok now.. .thanks [15:30] !envyng [15:30] EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia or ATi drivers, it can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" (for Gtk/Gnome) or "envyng-qt" (for Qt/KDE). It is NOT a supported method to install video drivers; please only use it if standard methods fail and at your own risk - See also !BinaryDriver [15:30] bunny: i do think you will be able to use fdisk at least. not the easiest but it would do the job [15:30] grawity: s/llok/look [15:31] bunny: is a blank disk so a mistake is not data loose you just start over [15:31] how do I make emacs set the tab width to 4, inserting spaces and not tabs? [15:31] gotunandan: ok its installed [15:31] MaGicMaX1: Or the you can use the Hardware Drivers in System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers [15:32] erUSUL: yeah, i'm aware of that, although the time does start to add up after a few times of "starting over" [15:32] gotunandan: im already using the proprietary driver in hardware drivers, but im having issues with it [15:32] MaGicMaX1: ermm... alright, now run $ sudo envyng -t For some reason since intrepid, AFAIK the GUI has some problems [15:32] MaGicMaX1: this might solve those then, which release of ubuntu are you using ? [15:32] brutus_: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SmartTabs [15:33] gotunandan: 9.04 i386 [15:33] MaGicMaX1: after you have started up envyng you will get a text based interface, which isnt really different or difficult from the GUI, just choose the correct option [15:33] raji: hi [15:34] hi sini [15:34] how many members yar [15:34] gr8 [15:34] raji: welcome to ubuntu irc [15:34] thank u [15:34] MaGicMaX1: you will not need to uninstall the driver, it will do that for you, just select the number for installing the Ati driver and proceed [15:34] raji: this is how we give support to ubuntu [15:34] oh i c [15:34] raji: type the name before typing somehting [15:34] interesting [15:35] gotunandan: oops, i already uninstalled :( [15:35] raji: you can any question here [15:35] raji: we give answer [15:35] oh [15:35] gotunandan: its asking me if i want to restart, can i just say no, then select install ATI driver now?

[15:38] gotunandan: ya, only one was in the list :P i have a feeling it was the same one, should i restart now? [15:38] MaGicMaX1: hmm.. well the latest version is not always the best, it can have problems... if this newer version is stable.. it will be updated [15:38] y there are more members here & less members there [15:38] Hello everyone. I have a question about the Intel 915GM on board video in a Dell Latitude D610. I have managed to get Ubuntu to recognize the chip set and to allow me to edit some settings in the Display settings; but I can't get my resolution any better than 1024 x 768. Any ideas. [15:38] MaGicMaX1, depending on your card it may be the only one supported [15:38] gotunandan: ok restarting [15:38] is the problem of ubuntu and ATI graphic card solved? [15:39] MaGicMaX1: hmm... yes i suppose so, actually I have never used an ATi card so not too sure, I've used envyng with Nvidia cards with no problem [15:39] albacker, depends on what you mean by solved and for what card(s) [15:39] albacker: restarting now after updating driver [15:40] Halitech: well the new version had not support of ati radeon x300.. it's been a whie since i'm not using ubuntu (and that's the only reason why). so i needed linux now, and was asking myself if instalinng ubuntu would be a good idea. [15:40] Halitech: i remember that the new version was a real pain, since i couldn't get my card working,everything as running slow as hell. [15:41] albacker, latest ati driver is 9.3 which doesn't work in 9.04 but works fine in any previous supported version [15:41] How do I have apt-get update refresh the archive cache? update runs through the repos as if there aren't any changes, but there are. I get Size mismatch [15:42] gotunandan: ok, how do i check its installed right? [15:42] Halitech: well what's a solution for this? should i install a previous ubuntu version, or is there a hack for this. and do you think i can find another version that has working-drivers for ati ? [15:42] s/version/distro : Halitech [15:42] albacker, and its not an Ubuntu "issue" its between xorg and ati as both made changes (ati dropped support for alot of cards) [15:43] Halitech: i know, im not blaming ubuntu. just that i only ave this laptop with ati card. I cant do much. [15:43] MaGicMaX1: $ apt-cache policy fglrx | grep Installed [15:43] albacker, I use Debian Lenny with an x1200 and it works fine and 8.04 or 8.10 should work fine [15:43] Halitech: they droped support just because x300 is considered as an old card i think. [15:43] I just reimaged my laptop (Jaunty) to fix a couple problems and now I can't get my bluetooth keyboard and mouse to connect. I've installed blueman and tried everything I could find via the forums and google. When I hit the connect buttons on the keyboard and mouse then search for devices, it just never finds anything.How can I completely remove and then reinstall bluetooth?

[15:45] MaGicMaX1: well I am not too sure about the package name for the ATi driver.. let me just check [15:45] albacker, I would go with 8.04 just due to the fact that its supported longer then 8.10 is [15:45] Halitech: what's the name of 8.04 ? [15:45] !8.04 [15:46] Ubuntu 8.04-LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04 - See !lts for more details. [15:46] gotunandan: its called "FGLRX" according to Hardware Drivers [15:46] Halitech: and also, does the use of 8.04 prevent me from using newer version of applications [15:46] it's rock solid [15:46] albacker, you can use backports to get newer software if you need it, or compile yourself [15:46] Halitech: i see. well thanks a lot for your time.

[15:53] pranav: i've heard good things about it [15:53] gwallace: are you running !9.04 ? [15:53] manines: depending on what you have running. That is close to normal. I have 64 bit installed at work and generally have 8 or so programs running and average between 400 -800 used [15:53] !904 [15:53] Sorry, I don't know anything about 904 [15:54] !9.04 [15:54] Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) is the current release of Ubuntu.

Is there a way to auto get the current login considering that ubuntu is already using ldap for general login? [15:54] I think the '!' needs to be at the beginning of the entire message, gotunandan [15:54] murielgodoi: Only if you are using Kerberos for authentication (not pure LDAP) [15:55] bunny: like ? [15:55] gwallace: I usually just run instant messengers and chat alongside a web browser or word processor...Usually no more than four light-use applications open at any given time, though I sometimes play Warzone2100 [15:55] running jaunty in an image-file, is there a way i can hide the /host/ (actual filesystem containing the image-file) directory from root?

[15:56] stlsaint: cd /media/cdrom [15:56] thought i tried that and got nowhere...ill will try again... [15:56] manines: It could be a hung or zombie process that is eating up the memory as well. Run top from the terminal and then shift+p to find out. [15:56] do you have to mount the cd rom first? [15:56] stlsaint: i think that's it, but i'm sure that this will work: run "mount", not as root [15:56] stlsaint: depends on where you have mounted teh cdrom [15:57] gotunandan: ok im gonna build my own deb with the driver from the ATI site, but should i uninstall and restart first? [15:57] mnaines: Its fairly normal, I am currently running Firefox, Pidgin and have 1.5 GB used, the thing is that in RAM, caching takes place, so that say you close firefox, it would not take more time to start it up again [15:57] stlsaint: actually, make that "mount|grep cd" [15:57] stlsaint: that should tell you where the device is mounted, if anywhere [15:58] if it isn't, then you'll need to mount it [15:58] how do i install k3b? apt-get install k3b tells me that no such packege.... === trothigar is now known as fhoward [15:58] MaGicMaX: brave enough to try that ?

[16:26] Lappy: hello [16:27] Is Bluey here? === am4zin is now known as amazin [16:27] Lappy: /whois Bluey will tell you [16:27] Can someone tell me a programm to watch the site ebay pleas [16:27] e [16:27] gotunandan: k i got the new driver installed, but DRI is still not enabled :( [16:27] garwity: this app doesn't do that >_> [16:28] -_- [16:28] MaGicMaX: hmmm, there must be some problem with the driver, not really sure, i dont have any idea about ati drivers really [16:28] I have problems on mysql server installation : check the error here http://pastebin.com/m28e353ee . Could someone help me to find the good way to install it properly ? thank you in advance [16:29] gotunandan: DRI should be enabled by default? or is it normal to have to fool around to enable it? [16:29] Anyways. Bluey told me to get Internet on my PC I should debug first. So I Pinged my main computer and router. Sadly I get No response, but it says I'm connected to the Network. I'm using Xbuntu by the way... [16:29] MaGicMaX: again, not really sure, since I've never had a Ati card, but for an Intel card it is enabled [16:29] Fandekasp, the error is not english more people would have helped if it was in english [16:30] howdy! I'd like to know, how do we add getty tty* on Ubuntu? we don't use /etc/inittab because of upstrat, so what would be the correct place to add them? [16:30] Hi does anyone know of any useful third party ubuntu software repositories? [16:30] useful for what? [16:31] ftab, excuse me... effectively, it will be difficult, but I didn't find someone who could help me on ubuntu-fr channel ... Could you check this with me in private ? I'll translate sentences to you [16:31] some good software! [16:31] Anyone? [16:31] sidp: be more precise [16:31] Myrtti: didn't have any particular requirements, just looking for software to download [16:31] sidp: there aren't any catch-all repositories that can be endorsed [16:31] Q-FUNK: have a look in /etc/event.d. you can just copy the tty files that already exist. [16:31] sidp: have you looked through synaptic already? [16:31] Myrtti: hmmmm! [16:32] Myrtti: yup! [16:32] sipior: did that. still no tty where I expect it :( [16:32] Fandekasp, let's see :-) [16:32] Myrtti: was just curious to know if there are any other which have softwares to offer, not looking for anything in particular [16:32] Q-FUNK: you don't have a /etc/event.d/tty1 and friends? [16:33] sidp: those are pretty much the ones that can be recommended by us. Using most of the rest are on your own discretion as the community will not provide support to most software installed from third-party repos [16:33] sipior: yes, but copying one of those, calling it tty9 and changing the content to tty9 didn't result in one extra tty coming up. [16:33] Myrtti: thanks! [16:34] hi all. i am trying to use the jack the ripper software from the 'jack' package. it crashes. crash report see here: http://www.pastebin.ca/1549285 does this program work for anyone? [16:34] i write ' $this->RequestHandler->setContent('XML');' in the before filter. how do i use it now? index.php/user.xml ? [16:34] hi I'm getting a bit closer to my problem here, firefox seems to be sending slightly different commands to cups such as MediaType=plain number-up=1 and using a capital A in PageSize=A4, as opposed to openoffice, this is possibly what is causing the filter to crash is there a way to modify these values in firefox to test it? [16:34] Q-FUNK: modify ACTIVE_CONSOLES in /etc/default/console-setup [16:34] sipior: so I'm wondering if new files in /etc/event.d need to be enabled somewhere else. [16:35] Q-FUNK: (else the other files won't be run) [16:35] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek starting in 25 minutes in #ubuntu-classroom [16:35] hello? the ethernet in my acer aspire aod250 isnt working. it uses the Atheros gigabit ethernet [16:35] Myrtti: is launchpad of any use as far as third party softwares are concerned? [16:35] sipior: and then relaunch which startup file? [16:36] sidp: no guarantees [16:36] sipior: or sorry, which init.d script? [16:36] sidp: software installed from team PPA's are supported by themselves. you might find something good, but also something bad. [16:37] how can i give software to others [16:37] sipior: if it's console-setup, that didn't enable the new tty either. [16:37] sipior: and I already defined tty as 1-9 there [16:37] Q-FUNK: it's not. reboot for a proper test. [16:37] any? [16:37] Hey ppl. Are there any cool PulseAudio plugins which can filter the output? [16:37] mycomputer: how do you mean? you've written some software and want to distribute it? [16:37] i write ' $this->RequestHandler->setContent('XML');' in the before filter. how do i use it now? index.php/user.xml ? [16:38] Something like an equalizer for example. [16:38] sipior: can't that be activated live by restarting some script? [16:38] renate: I saw something like that .. but it was a year ago or something like that.. and it wasn't a simple plugin.. it might have improved though [16:38] slart : i want to give vlc player to another user how should i give [16:38] hi, did you guys mess w/ firefox tabs in latest "shiretoko" ? i cant drag and drop tabs, or scroll and cause them to cycle [16:38] renate, check out ubuntustudio channel .. they can help you more w/ audio type stuff [16:38] Q-FUNK: probably. i like to make sure my changes survive a reboot, as a sort of useful paranoia. [16:39] olvap: your question is without context and not exactly Ubuntu support [16:39] oh, sorry [16:39] sipior: I'd like to test first, before rebooting. just reloading all the tabs in Firefox takes about 30 minutes. if there's any way I can avoid rebooting, I'd rather do that [16:39] Myrtti: wrong channel [16:39] wth? how do I use wireshark to catch packets?! [16:39] Q-FUNK: do what you like :-) [16:40] ice_cream, sudo apt-get install vlc [16:40] sipior: hence why I'm asking how to tell upstrat to reload its event.d scripts [16:40] Q-FUNK: actually, try "initctl reload" see if that works. [16:40] how can i give software to others === Thoben^Away is now known as Thoben [16:41] Q-FUNK: also, for future reference: http://upstart.ubuntu.com [16:41] mycomputer: why not tell them to download vlc from their website? or they are running linux too? [16:41] how to change the % of memory displayed while doing ps aux to actually kB ? [16:41] slart: they did not have net connection i have to give player how ? [16:41] if i want to move all my files from one backup drive to the other would i use rsync like this: rsync -azvv /frompath/ /topath/ ? am i leaving anything out? [16:42] how to change the % of memory displayed while doing "ps aux" to actually kB ? [16:42] mycomputer, what do you mean by give software to others? [16:43] pranav: "man ps" [16:43] he means share it === kaie is now known as Guest90887 [16:43] Can someone tell me a programm to watch the site ebay? please [16:43] do i need tab mix plus, or? [16:43] mycomputer, download the deb file and put it on a thumbdrive [16:44] sipior: ah, good one. thanks! [16:44] Anyone that is familiar with a program that allows you to run dual monitor just over the network with ubuntu on both machines? [16:44] Q-FUNK: yep, no trouble [16:45] Wolke: there just might not be any [16:45] buch, synergy might help ... i don't know if it's dual monitors tho [16:45] so i formatted the replacement drive to ext3.. but when i tried to mount the partition i got the error "/mnt/sdb1 is not a block device" .. any idea on what next? === hey` is now known as grumete [16:46] arooni-mobile: make sure you're supplying "/dev/sdb1" to the mount command [16:46] xmnt: Thanks ill check it out [16:46] sipior, this was my mount commnad: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/new_sdb1 === rene is now known as Guest91847 [16:47] nevermind got it [16:48] can I mass change filename extensions in the command line?

[16:49] can anyone recommend a very quick guide to latex??? [16:50] grawity: alrighty, thanks [16:50] brynjarh: Or... find . -name "*.m4v" -exec mv -i "{}" "$(echo "{}" | sed 's/m4v$/mp4/')" \; [16:51] wolke: try one of the crappy windows ones under wine === Anxious is now known as AnxiousNut [16:52] I have a Thinkpad T60 from IBM with Ubuntu 9.04 [16:52] the sound is not working [16:53] What's planned for the next release version of Ubuntu? :) [16:53] !9.10 | ArchCursed [16:53] ArchCursed: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [16:58] aasp76, does aplay -l give any results? === chaky_ is now known as chaky [17:01] Hi all... I'm using Ubuntu jaunty and want to gain access to python-django 1.1 which is in karmic. Is there some PPA that I might be able to find that will allow me to install python-django 1.1 into my system? How do I find these sorts of things beyond just googling ? === dragonrigs is now known as aaron11 [17:02] brandonz: iirc, you can easily install django without using the .deb and have it fully useable [17:03] brandonz: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/install/#installing-official-release [17:04] how to change the % of memory displayed while doing "ps aux" to actually kB ? [17:04] hozomean__: interesting... i just wanted to avoid tainting my system by installing software outside the package manager... maybe i'll go look for a PPA that has something like django nightly builds. [17:06] brandonz: since django is just a bunch of python scripts, as long as you have decent idea of where everything is, its not hard to update/remove if you need to [17:07] -m [17:07] hi [17:07] need help here with java... i'm running sip-communicator, but netstat shows that a java process with tcp6 and udp6 starts up instead of tcp or udp.. which i think is stopping the program from communicating [17:08] hozomean__: thanks for the help...

[17:16] lstarnes: im running sip-communicator.. with ports set... and my ports forwarded properly.. but when i look up under netstat... the process runs as a java (which is fine) but opens tcp6 and udp6 ports instead of tcp and udp [17:16] Halitech, looks like I'll be developing on windows then [17:17] adalal: is it supposed to be connecting to something that uses regular ipv4 tcp/udp? [17:17] !q | adalal [17:17] Sorry, I don't know anything about q [17:17] any plans for ubuntu to add the lzma file compression/decompression utilities lzma, lzip, or xz to its repositories. I read that Slackware is now distributing files from its repository in .txz format [17:17] a1551818, you could always go back to 8.04 or 8.10 [17:17] lstarnes: yeah.. i would assume so, i have it on my windows box and uses ipv4 [17:18] kevdog: a bit wrong channel, perhaps #ubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-motu would be better?

[17:20] Myritti: from what Ive read 7zip doesn't play well with permissions [17:20] buch: gsynaptic?

[17:24] ftab: What do you mean with "hanging" [17:25] when compiling from source, does an 'import' directory get picked up automatically, or do i need to point gcc towards the files in it? [17:25] Hi guys, I am running xubuntu and i am wondering what is the difference between gnome-desktop and ubuntu-desktop [17:26] Makavel: ubuntu-desktop is customized gnome-desktop [17:26] lstarnes: could it be because of java? because I dont see any such settings [17:27] owner: customized in what way exactly? [17:28] <_markus__> I'm using FF3.5 full page zoom, e.g. 150%, and zoomed images just look awful, pixelated, nothing compared to the same on Windows. Is there a way to fix this? I'm on 9.04 .. or wait, no, 9.10 actually [17:28] is it possible to set up my wireless card as a server instead of a client? I want to have eth0 connect to the internet, and my wireless to bridge to a NAT LAN [17:30] kazagistarr: look up hostap [17:30] Makavel: gnome is a type of ubuntu desktop environment like kde or xfce. [17:31] adalal: so I will need a specific driver and hardware? [17:33] kazagistarr: im not all that familiar with the program [17:33] kazagistarr: u'd be best off looking it up on ubuntuforums, there are threads on it there [17:33] or the hostap package [17:33] q. how to ask questino on #ubuntu-classroom ? [17:34] just ask.. [17:34] jetienne__: also see #ubuntu-classroom-chat [17:34] Geep: thanks [17:35] hey all [17:35] how r u ppl [17:35] kazagistarr: It is possible but not easy, as far as I know you need a driver supporting rawtx since mode master is not supoorted in linux drivers [17:36] pranav: I know it is a type of ubutu desktop, I am just confused what is different between gnome-desktop and ubuntu-desktop. Why the dinstinction if gnome is a type of ubuntu desktop? [17:36] that's my first time for me use ubuntu [17:36] it's nice OS [17:37] kazagistarr: if all you want to do is use the ubuntu box as a gateway for a home LAN that is all done in iptables, the default wifi driver will work fine [17:37] Makavel: ubuntu-desktop is gnome-desktop with added ubuntu customizations, thats all [17:38] smbdy played with irssi? [17:38] shams: probably the best distro [17:38] th0r: Did you test that? [17:38] how i can see all users names in this caht ? [17:38] chat ? [17:38] hi everyone [17:38] can some one tell me ?

If he wants to run an Ad-Hoc wifi network, that is another issue, but if he just wants to use the ubuntu box as the gateway for a LAN...iptables is all he needs [17:40] meathome i don't know what u mean but i'm use ubuntu 8.10 Disktop ver [17:40] hi all - I need some help here - anyone familiar with eeubuntu?

If you are using a wifi hub to connect the LAN together than the rest can be done using the default wifi driver. If you want to run an Ad-hoc network, where there is no hub, then that is another sotry [17:42] (story) [17:43] yitz_: you mean like "service"? [17:43] shams: some clients are very user friendly [17:43] xchay is cool [17:43] kazagistarr: Sure. Though I don't have any executable 'service' in my path [17:43] xchat even [17:43] irssi is awesome [17:43] lol [17:43] is there any way i can like see what i was doing before the screensaver was on? [17:43] penguin42, I want "top" to display amount of memory consumed for each processes rather than % which is the default option [17:43] kazagistarr: I got a services-admin but it doesn't look like the right thing [17:43] lhamil64, if you can't get a terminal to respond then hard to kill a program ... if you have ssh-server installed and a spare computer you could try sshing into it and killing it [17:44] he would be a bit lost with that just as me [17:44] lhamil64: if you can get to a terminal (try ctrl-alt-f1) you can run killall xscreensaver or some such thing [17:44] dang.. ctrl+alt+f1 doesn't work... [17:44] hahahan: I think you guys are confusing a NAT LAN and an ad-hoc network [17:44] Is there some channel for newbies where we can ask basic questions ? [17:45] th0r : yip. [17:45] pranav, you're in it [17:45] yitz_: "sudo service gdm status" works fine here... I'm pretty sure it is default [17:46] th0r: ad-hoc is two machines connected over wlan, is that right.

They can communicate with each other, but there is no outside connection [17:47] folks, i have some windows files which are unaccessable with windows, but i can see with linux, how can i change the file permision in order to access with windows [17:47] thanks for the suggestions everyone, i had to do a hard shutdown though.. im changing my screensaver to blank now :P [17:48] is there a linux app that will let you convert videos to mp3s [17:48] whoa [17:48] th0r: I would like to be able to come into my room, open my laptop, and log into a wireless network that connects me to the internet, and all I have is a eeebox with a ethernet cable to the internet and wireless card [17:48] aaron11: ie extract the audio? mplayer will as will vlc [17:48] um.. when i restarted it came up with a really weird screen [17:48] th0r: Oke, setup ad-hoc first and let Iptables do the Nat.

[18:54] ddrescue is also useful [18:54] commander_: nope.. but you're writing stuff in all caps.. which makes it harder to read and possibly considered shouting [18:54] i686, thanks [18:54] RHorse: well I always check google before I ask here, because before I get the answer ppl will alywas say " you will find all you need to know by googling it". So sorry if I'm asking something that I googled and couldnt find, but still it is on google [18:54] ? [18:54] commander_: but go ahead and ask your question..

[18:55] people were prolly busy with something interesting [18:55] :) [18:56] commander_: sometimes people just don't know..or the question lacks information.. for example .. asking "My scanner doesn't work" will possibly make people ignore you while asking "I'm using ubuntu 8.10 and my HP scanjet 5100 doesn't show up when I run xsane" might get you an answer [18:56] theatro : it worked but as a portable programme [18:56] ok i have cairo dock and getting global menu but soemtihfirefox browser from covering the enitre screen it just stops a quarter at the bottoming stops my [18:56] what is this - /lib/modules/2.6.28-15-server/build: No such file or directory [18:56] !pm | Wolke [18:56] Wolke: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice.

[18:57] commander_: thats why no one answered you [18:57] ahh [18:57] I guess it'll work anyway [18:57] zaggynl: Intel used to have its own ia64, which wasn't really successful... [18:57] RHorse: I'm thinking what this could be.... [18:57] commander_: not really sure about how cairo-dock handles it.. but the awn dock has a setting for allowing full screen apps to cover it [18:57] hello! can someone help me get some sound on my acer spire 8930?

I have seen, that a apostrophe in a description of a package is wrong. sould I fix this to karmic, karmic-updates or should I do nothing? [18:58] sabina: search the forums for info would be a great start if no one here can help [18:58] zaggynl: I think intel licensed the 64 bit stuff from amd.. google for it.. I think it's a long story [18:58] Wolke: If you run your OS on a drive that you've deleted data from, you'll overwrite the data. Use a live CD to recover it.

[19:01] is there a way to ad a user to the sudoers list in a way tht they can only execute one single command? e.g. when i'm not home, i'd like to be able to create a cli login that would allow one of my kids to lohin and issue a s shutdown -h now or a sudo shutdown -r now or a sudo reboot [19:01] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1215051 [19:01] (machine has not gui) [19:02] SLart: I'll play with it, but the weird part is once I've logged out, there is a 10 second delay that bumps to 30 seconds when I start typing a username, but that delay doesn't ever happen on boot [19:02] did Sabina leave, [19:02] how can I enable runlevel 5 in Ubuntu? (upstart difference I think). trying to autostart xdm.

Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. [19:02] i did it witout sp3 [19:02] http://www.the-pc-guru.com/Cannot_access_folder_after_W.php [19:02] tell us then [19:02] ikonia: and what is the blessed way to autostart xdm?

I really dont want to have to reinstall ubuntu, when i type 'lspci' the card still shows up.

I have a software raid question. I have 3 hard drives and want to set up raid 5 with mdadm post install. I keep getting an error that sda1 is busy. I am assuming I get the error because that is the drive that ubuntu is installed on. My question is, do I actually need another hard drive to put the o/s on and then create the raid on the remaining 3? And if that is the case doesn't that leave the o/s vulnerable? === Tommy\DO is now known as Tommy_EEE === Tommy_EEE is now known as Tommy_Eee [20:21] Do any of you have a lenovo S10 netbook?

[20:23] tsrk: just ask your real question like (how to run hardware xy with ubuntu [version]. its not detecting, its not working correclty or something like that. because the same hardware is often used in different notebooks [20:24] shawn_: there are a few ifferent ways you can do it, but its a little more complicated if you're starting with data on the drive [20:24] iceroot, alright [20:24] shawn_: is sda1 the size you want the whole raid to be? [20:24] hi [20:24] Yes [20:25] i just repartitioned a bit, and now GRUB gives error 22 [20:25] i've gotten to rescue mode on the ubuntu CD [20:25] When my lenovo s10 comes out of suspend, I get an IRQ error (I think it's for the hard drive, it mentions ATA). Then everything goes unbearably slow. I also think it's because of the hard drive because it doesn't happen on a live install running off a flash drive. Is this normal? [20:25] and i can now choose between opening a shell on the harddrive or opening one on teh install system [20:26] but i have no idea what kind of commands to run to fix grub [20:26] or I should say it is the same size as the others and would make up 1/2 of the size of the riad [20:26] SockPants: chroot [20:26] I have 3 500 gb drives, and was going for 1 TB of redundant storage [20:26] shawn_: so what you need to do is create the raid [20:26] shawn_: but explicitely tell it that one disk is missing [20:27] 'chroot' will fix grub?

[22:21] I have used and installed Ubuntu numerous times, but recently I installed it on my family's home computer. It appears that when multiple users are logged on, even if they are not running any processes, the computer occasionally slows to a crawl. Switching users also is buggy, either taking a long time, or hangs on a black screen, or apparently (according to my sister) the desktop background for half the screen. [22:21] Does anyone have any ideas why this is so? [22:21] wildmadsci: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [22:22] ari5av, sure, but i'm not too familiar with the commands in ubuntu as i is the noob :-) [22:22] wildmadsci: if they do not log off but only switch user, the processes are still running [22:22] ActionParsnip the problem is that it doesn't start [22:22] oh that's all right, you learn by doing [22:22] I cannot see the main menu [22:23] I mean simply that they have nothing up, as in not really running any programs [22:23] mikunos1: so you dont get the language selector and the option to install ubuntu [22:23] I wrote a bash one-liner this morning that would still have me sitting there typing out commands if I hadn't done it [22:23] Hi, when i print with open office writer the upper margin configuration doesnt take effect and the document prints with upper margin 0 [22:23] ActionParsnip yes I don't [22:23] on a related note, I hate perforce.

[22:26] and not in the ASUS laptop [22:26] SealedWithAKiss: use gksudo, sudo is NOT for GUI apps [22:26] However, Windows XP ran decently well under the same conditions, I just thought perhaps Ubuntu would perform better, ah well [22:27] mikunos1: maybe its some hardware making it bork then if it works in other systems it is ok === _Julian-de is now known as Julian-de [22:27] ActionParsnip, got it thanks a lot [22:27] Slart: nothing to see in syslog... [22:27] yes maybe [22:28] so what do I have to do?

[22:31] MrUnagi: you will find 99% of the time it is extremely surplus and what is being performed can be done with a more graceful solution [22:31] i dont need a full desktop per se, id like to set it up so that my old laptop server can display a secondary display to this laptop, so that i can put images on it from over the network [22:31] mikunos1: have you read any guides regarding ubuntu and yuo make/model? [22:32] in a website I have read that I can disable the ata module [22:32] not yet [22:32] Slart: it worked.

[22:33] MrUnagi: but for what end? Is it for presentations or for media playing? [22:33] Slart: the testfile is owned by root [22:34] MrUnagi: most apps have web interfaces or can be easily configured using ssh or even x forwarding [22:34] joooe: does your script work when it's run as root?

[22:53] ok i've got a strange problem, just installed ubuntu onto a 160gb (142gb according to df) drive, there's 132gb free, apt errored out during the install of "tango-icon-theme" complaining that there is no free space, i can't figure out why [22:53] I got the ubuntu book and Linux format and well i read the forums on ubuntu a lot [22:53] hugo1: not to discourage you, but I've never seen less that 1300 people in here :-) [22:53] MFK: did you google linux point release for quake3 [22:54] un|matrix: I don't use audacity personally, but it's meant to be really good.

Grub goes to CLI and I dont know how to boot from there [22:54] mooch: I did, and i've followed a couple of guys, but have been unable to get it to work [22:54] hugo1: there may be a lot of people in here, but I haven't seen everyone in here, chat in here [22:54] thanks gunntbert goot day to you [22:54] sebsebseb: it's counterproductive... it annoys you with pointless things like sample rates and you have to open another instance of audacity just to downsample the rate... etc [22:55] MFK: mine is running but I'm trying to remember how I did it... [22:55] lol sebsebseb [22:55] hugo1: have fun with linux :-) [22:56] MFK: where did you d/l the server package [22:56] somehow my gtk-windows-decorator is set so that the area i can click around the border of a window to resize that window is only 1 pixel wide. how can I change this? its really difficult to find and use [22:56] i enabled file sharing on a folder, is it getting shared through NFS or SMB?

[23:15] Follow the restore grub part FlugHaffen [23:15] !alien | lostabeer [23:15] lostabeer: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [23:15] thanks [23:16] FlugHaffen: Strange that GRUB went nutty after the initial install -- what's your setup? [23:16] oh ok thanks [23:16] FlugHaffen: well it might not exactly have a solution, but re installing Grub could possibily help [23:16] lostabeer: most Linux programs you can also get from source [23:16] lostabeer: what do you want to install? [23:17] sun java [23:17] Cpudan, i had 9.04 a while back and it worked just fine. I dont know what happened [23:17] stlsaint: "Hardware drivers" show nothing [23:17] lostabeer: you don't need a RPM for that, since you can install it from the Ubuntu repo [23:17] FlugHaffen: hrm... odd [23:17] Cpudan80, the only difference is a different .iso but it checked out [23:17] oh ok thanks sebsebseb [23:18] lostabeer: ok no probs [23:18] Thank you everyone for helping me with Ubuntu. especially Bluey who helped me debug my Internet!

I got a strange response. [23:28] I'm starting to learn C++ and according to the book I'm consulting, I need a compiler. Does Ubuntu come with one by default, and if so, how do I access it? (Or do I just use Text Editor to write code and ./configure and make to compile?) [23:28] I'm trying to install simplescaler and am having some issues doing it. Is there anyone here using Ubuntu 9.04 x64 edition that has simplescalar and would be willing to help me?

[23:35] Andorin, it supports c and c++, if that's what you mean [23:36] Is there a plugin for Rhythm box that allows it to identify unidentified music?

[23:37] tisepti: use dpkg in a terminal [23:37] tisepti: if it's a deb then the package manager should recognize what dependancies are needed and download them at the same time as the install.

[23:38] do i port forwad the server ip, in the http: [23:38] Guest522: what about it? [23:38] ? [23:38] Andorin: gcc.gnu.org is the GNU Compiler Collection homepage, pretty sure it supports ANSI standard [23:38] You have to open ports up in your iptables file [23:38] Guest522: ah.. you're running a http server? [23:38] and fixed ip set with networkmanager gnome [23:38] a home webserver [23:38] to run a few websites from [23:38] Guest522: you need to state what you want to do... [23:39] Guest522: your ISP doesn't block port 80 inbound on your network? [23:39] Guest522: yep.. same thing.. be aware that most ISP's block port 80 on home internet service.. you might need to use something like DynDNS.com [23:39] need to forward the port from the machine to my router [23:39] and not 100% how to [23:39] Guest522: you need to configure that in your router. portforward.com [23:39] Guest522: works the other way around.. you need to forward port 80 to your webserver [23:39] what is a good mmo fps for jaunty?? [23:39] ryt, [23:40] either way im not 100% sure how to do it [23:40] im loged into my router now, what exactly do i need to do?

Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [23:41] ok [23:41] helpee, i installed 9.04. grub sends me to a CLI and i cant boot. I tried reinstalling grub and got some errors. I tried autosupergrub and it didnt work [23:41] Guest522: did you visit portforward.com yet? This isn't an ubuntu issue. It's a configuration setting on your router. [23:42] ive tryed protforward [23:42] does anyone play mmo's ?? [23:42] and got even more confussed [23:42] !doesn't work | FlugHaffen [23:42] FlugHaffen: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. [23:42] brb [23:42] scunizi: i need to do this on an offline system - thus i will need to have all dependencies downloaded ahead of time; i know some can be found on the install disk - but how do i provide the ones that are not [23:42] Guest522: well it's in english. Sit down and read it. Or read your router's documentation. [23:42] Is there a plugin or a way for Rhythmbox to allow it to identify untagged music? [23:42] Any ideas as to why sometimes when I boot up, the sound works, and other times, like now, it doesn't? [23:42] tisepti: use dpkg like I said [23:42] I was about to say the same thing helpee. [23:42] i tryed to read it [23:43] i got into my netgear vertion [23:43] and http [23:43] helpee, let me bring up the specific error i get from auto super grub [23:43] and doesnt really say much from there [23:43] Google is your friend [23:43] helpee: how do i provide the dependencies for dpkg ? [23:43] tisepti: dpkg -i foo.deb dep1.deb dep2.deb ... [23:43] tisepti: there is a way for the package manager to tell you what dependancies you need without installing them. Download from a different computer and place them in the same location that "Apt" typically puts downloads.. sorry I don't know much more. [23:44] Guest522: you want to run a server yet you don't want to read documentation :/ [23:44] !aptoncd | tisepti [23:44] tisepti: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers - See also !offline [23:44] i chucked the router docs away =( ?

[23:45] helpee: What's this google thing you speak of [23:45] ive tryed on on a manual on portforward.com [23:45] It's a lotta zeroes [23:45] but, im stuck on Server IP Address [23:45] would this be the machine ip [23:45] when you go there it says "Bing"! [23:45] or the router ip? [23:45] bkevan: I found a link to google once on yahoo but was too scared to click, not sure! [23:45] Guest522: server [23:46] helpee: Yeah.. might not be safe.. jk [23:46] Hey let me google that on bing, sounds handy. [23:46] server... machine u mean [23:46] ? [23:46] yes [23:46] ok [23:46] helpee, wanna take a look? http://pastebin.com/mcae0d81 [23:46] and this wold be [23:46] Your IP Address is 82.32.200.81 [23:46] ? [23:46] It sounds to me like someone is way in over their head and need to go learn some basics of networking and terminology before tackling a task like setting up a webserver [23:47] Guest522: nope.. that's not it.. should be something like 192.168.0.xxx [23:47] ok [23:47] FlugHaffen: not sure. Have you tried using the grub prompt to install grub manually? Also try #grub to figure out what the errors mean [23:47] i try that [23:47] and get this error Server IP address cannot be router's LAN IP address. [23:47] helpee, i did try the grub prompt but ill try in the grub channel thanks [23:47] then you entered the wrong address Guest522 [23:48] but, i login to the router via http://192.168.1.1/start.htm [23:48] so thats gotta be the ip [23:48] ? === Cass67 is now known as Cass [23:49] Guest522: nope.. that's the routers address.. your machine is in the same range but the last number is different. [23:49] 1 Web Server 80 80 192.168.1.2 [23:49] so thats right [23:49] i managed to get that bit [23:49] I found the http://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromLinux/RedHatEnterpriseLinuxAndFedora page today - [23:49] I think "apt-cache search" is a better equivalent to "yum search" than the given "apt-cache show" -- I'm tempted to make a wiki edit right now but figured I should check with an apt-cache expert first? [23:49] Guest522: might be.. where did you get that info? [23:49] hey i am trying to get my apache to link up to my cups server and i dont get the same graphics that i do in localhost:631, my httpd file is here http://pastebin.com/m11a67e75 [23:50] Anyone eard of a way t synchronise icecast streams? I have multiple clients pluggued trough my house and I'd like them to be synchronised. Right now, each one plays slightly out of sinc (bout a second or two) and I'd like every room to play in sync. [23:50] is there an audio editor for linux that doesn't suck? (you can't say audacity) [23:50] bye [23:50] un|matrix: audacity? [23:51] joker_: don't the machines cache some of the stream a little.. if so it'll be a nightmare to sync them [23:51] joker_: no because it sucks [23:51] scunizi: clicked start, rightclicked on wireless network conections, status then clicked support [23:51] scunizi: yeah, I guess the problem resides in buffering but there's got to be a way to sync that? [23:51] think the grub channel is empty [23:51] un|matrix: yeah well, thats what I use... Works pretty much well for what I need [23:52] !grub [23:52] 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 [23:52] Guest522: if that was done on the server machine then it sounds right. [23:52] joker_: beyond me [23:52] yum search == apt-cache search != apt-cache show ... anybody disagree? [23:52] joker_: how do you glue together two tracks that have different sample rates then? [23:52] so nowok [23:53] ok, so now thats me done? [23:53] Guest522: are you trying to get to the server from inside your lan? [23:53] yes [23:53] but, i want other people to be able to access my server [23:53] Guest522: then just open a browser and type the ip address.. like 192.168.1.2:80 [23:54] Scunizi. That won't test whether people on the outside can access it [23:54] He needs to put in his public ip address with port 80 to see if people on the outside can access it [23:54] knock knock [23:54] Gouda: of course not.. he's setting up port forwarding and then trying to test access from inside the lan.. not going to work that way.. you're right though.. he's over his head [23:55] Pretty much [23:55] 192.168.1.2:80 doesnt do anything [23:55] except try and load [23:55] Guest522: try http://192.168.1.2:80 [23:55] have you even setup apache yet guest? [23:55] FlugHaffen: the e2fs_stage1_5 file are in the /boot/grub/ directory on my jaunty install, do you know if grub is installed correctly on the filesystem itself? [23:56] i used ubuntu [23:56] doesnt that work [23:56] btw [23:56] im using mylaptop [23:56] but i want to connect to my desktop [23:56] may anybody help me? [23:56] Gouda: GOOD QUESTION! wish I had thought of that [23:56] so [23:56] how would people from the outside world be able to connect? [23:56] arand, i dont know if it is installed correctly. I tried reinstalling it and it seemed not to work [23:56] Wow ok...you are way in over your head guest522. If you are using your machine to host a webpage, you need to setup Apache first. if you didnt know what that was then you need to go do some research and reading on how to setup a webserver before coming in here [23:57] ozone89- with what? [23:57] well [23:57] acctualy [23:57] i installed cpane; [23:57] and it does it for me [23:57] ozone89, Just ask your question, if we know the answer we will reply :) [23:57] Guest522: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:57] cpanel* [23:57] that's not a web server [23:57] FlugHaffen: so you aren't able to boot into the system where grub are supposed to be installed? [23:57] un|matrix: sry, I was afk for a minute there. As for your question, I copy paste and it works fine irrc? [23:57] arquebus: with setting up a dual head on a t30... [23:58] joker_: well yeah it screws up the speed that way [23:58] arand, when i try to boot into the system grub sends me to a CLI and i dont know how to boot from there [23:58] ozone89-dual head? [23:58] un|matrix: what if you open the two, resample one of them and copy#paste [23:58] arquebus: yup, I have a radeon 7500 mobility [23:58] joker_: won't let me open 2 instances [23:59] so, basicaly im on my own [23:59] Guest522. You are way in over your capability of setting up a webserver. I think you need to go do lots of reading or pay someone to set it up for you [23:59] un|matrix: can't you open 2 tracks in one audacity instance? [23:59] FlugHaffen: try this command from that command line: find /boot/grub/stage1 [23:59] joker_: also i don't know how to resample it... it's so damn anti-intuitive [23:59] ozone89- dont know anything about it [23:59] arquebus: it just clones my screen, but I'd like a spanned desktop with different resolutions [23:59] arquebus: oh, thanks anyway
