[00:11] linus: is that a EEEpc? [00:11] no [00:11] is my writing invidible? starting to wonder if im just talking to myself and xchat is broken. lint if you can read this i think apt-get install -f to see missing packages etc [00:11] Is there a free equivalent to The cisco VPN client?

Because I don't have anything BUT my headset that I use. [00:15] Gnea, all yours, I'm off to bed [00:15] cmp_, are you absolutely required to use Evolution for your mail? I would definitely not recommend it [00:15] trothigar: nite [00:15] i thought Gimp was the photoshop clone [00:15] well, gonna throw my question out again and hope it hits someone, anyone used remote login and if so can you login WITHOUT first login in on the host machine locally, ie run xdmcp on host from gdm, or even just the console [00:15] burf: it is. [00:16] why lint, [00:16] burf googles GTK [00:16] burf: but the GUI is written using GTK. [00:16] kazorin, nope but you can try going to 'Output Devices' tab and checking C-media as default [00:16] burf: gimp was the first app using GTK, that's why it's called GTK. [00:16] cmp_, it's cludgy and buggy [00:16] hey guys, some how I messed up grub, whats an easy way to reinstall grub from live cd?

I've changed the inbound rules to allow connections from 192.168.1.101 (eth0) but firestarter still blocks. What can I do to keep from getting all these "events" or does it matter? [00:18] well, gonna throw my question out again and hope it hits someone, anyone used remote login and if so can you login WITHOUT first login in on the host machine locally, ie run xdmcp on host from gdm, or even just the console [00:18] Please_Help: don't care, was busy helping others, please repeat.

[00:20] Please_Help, you want to remotely login using XDMCP, is that your problem ? [00:20] ok, well i setup xdmcp loging in from my other ubuntu install to this one but i can only see the host and login in remotely when the host computer has first been logged in (locally), is this normal?

[00:21] My computer has a Core 2 Duo, should I use 64bit or 32bit Ubuntu? [00:21] is memtest on the ubuntu live or altenrate cd? [00:21] Please_Help, no, that is not the expected behavior, you should be able to login remotely withoyt any user logged in, assuming gdm was started [00:21] yes, it works fine once im logged into any session on the host [00:21] kansan, thought i saw it on the livecd i just had booted [00:21] !xdmcp | Please_Help (and have you read this?) [00:21] Please_Help (and have you read this?): xdmcp is the X Display Manger Control Protocol -- look at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/ to find out how to configure it [00:22] cxo, you can use 64 bits, it's your choice [00:22] does avidemux support any video file [00:22] teehee: not all, but many. [00:22] where can i find out what it supports [00:22] i followed a guide, setup in the gdm login manager exactly as described [00:22] teehee: oh its website [00:22] gnea - but its not a program like visual studio that you can write sofwtare with right? its more a set of libraries that you can use your programming language to take advantage of, like dlls and plugins? is that right? [00:22] Please_Help: which guide? [00:23] joaopinto, will I have any problem setting it up or is the software just the same to setup like in the 32bit version? [00:23] i have found so many with (Thunderbird) in the list can you tell me which one i should choose lint? [00:23] burf: it's based off of C, and it's a set of shared libraries. [00:23] cxo, it's the same software [00:23] i forget, went thru a load and set all the right tickboxes in the gdm to enalbe it, and it does work, just not when no user is logged, cant understand it [00:23] burf: there are C++ extensions as well. [00:24] just looked at the link u said, did look thru that guide too. [00:24] well, i choosed kmail as its easy to find it Lint, [00:25] how do I change my default screen program from the odd program that asks to choose a color, back to the regular unix nohup screen tool?

[00:29] i suppose im looking for an ide and language that i can learn and run on linux as similar to VB as possible for creating desktop apps - uppose i better look up as many languages as possible - dont mind learning a new one - but not C or C++ [00:29] not cos its hard, but cos its ott [00:29] ott? [00:30] burf: Gambas is sort of similar in the point and click sort of thing. You might look into learning something like python though, which allows you to create GUIs rather easily (lots of tools to output the code for the GUI) [00:31] burf try mono or netbeans they are very close to visual studio and they expandable [00:32] !emacs [00:32] Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) - Terminal-based: nano, vi/vim, emacs - For HTML/CSS editors, see !html - For programming editors and IDE, see !code [00:32] i thought python had no gui, its like a terminal window [00:32] sorry ott - over teh top [00:32] !python [00:32] python is a popular Object Oriented scripting language included in Ubuntu.

[01:47] losher: I would understand that normally, but for some reason it wount even get to the selectionscreen. it doesnt try to boot [01:47] hi [01:47] im trying to fix my crypttab [01:47] losher, the command you provided appears to be what I'm looking for. thanks [01:48] RandomUsr: then you want: find . -type f | xargs egrep "tsclient". And I still don't know what you mean when you say you get 'more' than you wanted... [01:48] losher: just a blinking _ after the word "GRUB" [01:48] can you see the text i'm writing? [01:48] hello, I am a bit stuck. Have a LAMP setup running and have imported and configured a forum. When browsing from 'lynx localhost' the site opens up instantly. When browsing via a network connection, everything is incredibly slow. Downloading directly from the machine shows tht network access is very fast so theres no bandwidth errors, it's just purely when serving via apache to a browser/download. There is currently no browsing activity. Any ideas? [01:48] mado: yes [01:48] losher "more" than I wanted means every file in / is what I was getting. regardless of whether I wanted it or not [01:48] IdleOne thank you [01:49] SlickT10: odd. Are you *sure* you haven't done anything that would mess up grub. Did you install the new kernel? [01:49] losher, I was doing find / "tsclient" [01:49] i have a problem where i don't know what to do ... it has to do with "irc" where can i ask someone for help on this? [01:49] HI everybody could anyone help me out with making windows bootable by grub? :/ this is issue makes me mad [01:49] mado: ask [01:50] * -is [01:50] RandomUsr: find / "tsclient" is definitely not correct syntax, so that explains it... [01:50] hmmm [01:50] before i came here i wanted to connect to a different server ... but it doesn't work and i don't know why IdleOne [01:50] it worked some hours before ... but now ... nothing [01:50] IdleOne: gsynaptics won't initialize...It tells me to enable SHMConfig or something [01:50] mado: the server may be offline [01:50] this was my first time through building a custom kernel, but all i did, as far as I know, was build it. I was using grub2, and it was working fine [01:51] losher: ^ [01:51] Kitsune`: continue reading that guide it tells you how to do that [01:51] losher, so then, do I have to pipe to some incarnation of grep? [01:51] mado : what's writteng on status window? [01:51] or can I use find w/o using grep? [01:51] need help with ekiga and video camera ekiga crashes everytime I try and start the camera [01:51] RandomUsr, grep "tsclient" -r /path [01:51] HI everybody could anyone help me out with making windows bootable by grub? [01:51] i guess the message is --- Unable to resolve server --- The_Bridge, IdleOne [01:52] SlickT10: regardless, it sounds like at the least you're going to have to attempt a grub reinstall [01:52] wnenn, [01:52] mado: that means your either typing the server name wrong or the server may be down [01:52] eminor, will that search all subdirectories and only return the matching string? [01:52] BRB, restarting [01:52] mado: what server? [01:52] try update-grub [01:52] dave-ubuntu1: [01:52] RandomUsr: the grep part is what selects only the files containing the tsclient string, so you can't really dispose of it... [01:52] dave-ubuntu1: yes, I read you :) [01:53] that's what I thought [01:53] IdleOne, The_Bridge -> irc.christian-chat.net <- ... ... i already checked the spelling [01:53] wnenn, have you tried the forums ? there are many relating to that precise issue [01:53] dave-ubuntu1: oh sorry i didn't readed [01:53] losher: thats what is confusing, i have tried twice using the link from !grub, I even deleted /boot/grub, and reinstalled it. Iam baffled [01:53] RandomUsr, -r stands for recursivly, but it will return lines with the matching string. [01:54] dave-ubuntu1: update-grub does not work [01:54] dave-ubuntu1: i try forum then [01:54] thanks eminor [01:54] mado: I connected fine [01:54] RandomUsr: eminor's command should work too. The "find" part is disposable, but not the "grep" part [01:54] dave-ubuntu1: do you have any link about that please? [01:55] dave-ubuntu1: on forum? [01:55] sweet [01:55] Q: is there a way to stop certain prgrams being themed by teh desktop theme? [01:55] really IdleOne?? [01:55] mado you can try /server 74.52.212.218 [01:55] mado yes [01:55] dave-ubuntu1: thanks [01:55] how come i can't connect to it? IdleOne [01:55] losher: then find is pretty much useless by itself or alone? [01:55] losher: sidenote, I am booting into that partition using refit [01:55] mado: I don't know [01:55] wnenn, http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_windows_xp_and_linux_xp_installed_first.htm [01:55] i try the thing you suggested [01:55] SlickT10: sorry, I know nothing about refit... [01:56] eminor, what's the the "permission denied" being returned on many files? [01:56] dave-ubuntu1: I check right now thanks [01:56] wnenn, also http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=2&url=http%3A%2F%2Fapcmag.com%2Fhow_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm&ei=7ROfSsSEM8ic8Qag0ZTnDw&rct=j&q=dual+boot+xp+ubuntu&usg=AFQjCNGoyszo_MY3t3d6wHY9NnZFT2bugQ [01:56] ty [01:56] my bad [01:56] wnenn, http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm [01:56] RandomUsr, you dont have rights to read all files as a normal user, so.. [01:57] I know [01:57] I lost my password for root [01:57] IdleOne: gsynaptics doesn't seem to have an option for my problem. [01:57] eminor, anyway to change it? [01:57] RandomUsr: the find part is useful if you need more options e.g. only files less than 10 days old, or greater than a certain size, or some such... [01:57] Kitsune`: sorry, I thought that might help you [01:58] It does have other stuffs which are fun to mess with though. [01:58] thanks losher [01:58] er IdleOne? [01:58] dave-ubuntu1: ok thank you, I try to check the links [01:58] when i try to "identify" myself it says -> "Services are currently down. Please try again later." [01:58] mado: ?? [01:58] mado: identify where? [01:58] RandomUsr, try grep "tsclient" -r /path 2> /dev/null [01:58] mado: on the other network? [01:58] yeah IdleOne [01:58] mado : then the server is offline [01:59] mado: that means that the nickserv service is currently not working and to try later [01:59] mado: It could be that the server you're on split from the rest of the network [01:59] *feels a bit of a relief* ... and i thought i was doing something wrong somehow :) The_Bridge IdleOne [01:59] so I assume you are connected to the network now mado [01:59] mado: enjoy and have a good night. [02:00] anyone know how to change my root password if forgotten? it's been 6 months since being into my VM [02:00] RandomUsr, grep "tsclient" -s -r /path better [02:00] IdleOne The_Bridge ... thanks for your help :) [02:00] no problem [02:01] welcome [02:01] RandomUsr: does sudo still work for you? It uses the same password as your regular login.. [02:01] is there anyone tried running ubuntu on acer timeline 1810? [02:01] losher, sort of [02:01] can anyone help me set my /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot. file?

[02:03] is "ekiga" that different from skype folks? *thinking* [02:03] !root [02:03] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [02:03] because i will try out "ekiga" soon :) [02:03] losher:Reading package lists...

[02:06] Austad: search in Synaptic, I am sure there is a package available [02:07] oh ok [02:07] Austad: Dalnet uses ( like most networks ) a custom server.

In sys>prefs>visual effects tab, is it set to anything other than None (or are you able to do that) [02:14] hgrover: you were missing that package it seems [02:14] IdleOne: fair enough, but what is the package? [02:15] noob: small tip. "sudo apt-get install command-not-found.*" and then when you type "ccsm" in terminal you'll get a nice suggestion from the program telling you what package would provide it [02:15] hgrover: I am guessing MPM is a library/module you needed??? beats me really [02:15] in the past, things had just worked with sudo apt-get install apache2.2-common [02:15] it's a multiprocessing module [02:15] soreau: there is no visual effects option under prefs [02:15] from appache.org: This Multi-Processing Module (MPM) implements a non-threaded, pre-forking web server that handles requests in a manner similar to Apache 1.3. It is appropriate for sites that need to avoid threading for compatibility with non-thread-safe libraries. It is also the best MPM for isolating each request, so that a problem with a single request will not affect any other. This MPM is very [02:15] noob: Sorry, sys>prefs>appearance>visual effects tab [02:16] noob, or just apt-cache search ccsm, but what's the fun in that :) [02:16] hgrover: well there you go, you got your answer :) [02:16] haha, *is still confused*, thanks anyways though xD [02:16] soreau, it is set to "none" [02:16] noob: Can you set it to Extra?

I see the card and it's settings are correct(ip/gateway/ect...) Just doesn't connect. [04:28] hmm [04:28] lakcaj: foobar2000 is awsome if you decide to use it, and has its own channel on freenode full of audio smartees [04:29] lakcaj: ah never actually used mp3gain but i just know its a good option [04:29] ifconfig shows me the eth0 setup correctly with my network settings [04:29] unitheory, thanks, where can I get it?

[04:30] sebsebseb, but can any of those normalize a collection of flac files? I'm not looking for a player, but rather normalization software.

[04:36] CatEater, ubuntu as a host and windows in the vm works better :) [04:36] yinlong, could be any number of reasons [04:36] CatEater: better the other way round with Windows in a vm :) unless you really need a psyical install for something fancy [04:37] I have a document that has 60 pages, how do i print just the page 10 to 14 with lp or lpr command?

[04:44] lakcaj: and that's been quite a long time [04:44] lakcaj: you know you need to do 'replaygain processing' during the conversion rather than just scanning for replaygain info after the converstion, which will just add headers to the file your player might not be able to read, just fyi [04:44] linus: out of my knowledge buddy sorry ask again some knows...help is here.

What would you guys recommend. obviously compatibility is a priority. I would hate to have ubuntu not run on the system. Im thinking Dell. [05:20] I got a printer connected to a USB port here, but I got a machine on the other end of the house running Windows XP that also wants to print on this printer [05:21] The volume up/down controls do nothing on the os level, only works at the player level [05:21] same for muting [05:21] lucidguy: I've been really happy with my asus EEE 1000 - lots of support for that [05:21] hey i got one more question, at applications, system, login window prefs, even reopening the window, it's too big for my screen, i can't make it smaller so some options won't show. Is there any solution? [05:21] Flannel: what do you know about Brother printers? [05:21] GuidMorrow, system > administration > printing > server > settings > check publish shared printers connected to this system [05:21] areay1: nickserv commands go in the status window, not chat windows!

[05:23] angie: that "feature" is an ubuntu thing and it is pretty awful [05:23] WilliamC2: install libglib2.0-dev [05:23] unitheory: I'm not sure, can a Windows XP computer connected via wireless network print through here? [05:23] legend2440 [05:23] it is not really a bash thing [05:23] lucidguy, they are smoking something funky [05:23] bruenig, its horrible [05:23] thowland, thats what I thought .. since the original Eee PCs came with linux. [05:23] do I need to enable file and print sharing in windows [05:23] bruenig, bash is pretty fast now [05:23] GuidMorrow, good question. too bad i don't have any windows computers around here to test it out ;] [05:23] areay1: your nick is not registered :/ [05:23] How about MSI laptops they seem to have come out of nowhere recently. === name is now known as name_ [05:24] angie, i know... my old one was [05:24] LucidGuy, i thoroughly enjoy to tc1100 tablet, but you can't really call it a netbook. i also enjoy my asus eee 701 [05:24] anyone tried running ubuntu on acer timeline 1810?

[05:26] :) [05:26] rsvp: what about it [05:26] really? .. from what I've read celerons out perform atoms yet they consume quite a bit more power. [05:26] those are netbooks,they supposed to be sucks [05:26] :) [05:26] rsvp: what we are talking about is the ubuntu hacked bash that does that dumb apt check and slows things down horribly [05:26] lucidguy: why are you buying a netbook? they are supposed to run a long time on battery [05:27] i didn't know that "hey did you mean __? you can install that with this command..." was disable-able [05:27] lucidguy: if you want performance, go up $200 and get a cheap lenovo or toshiba laptop [05:27] thowland, Just something to surf/movies .. nothing crazy. Maybe the odd simple old school strategy games like simcity. [05:27] what is a ui-less way to play an audio file?

You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. [06:42] eljefe: unchecking CHAP didnt help.. nor did restarting [06:42] SharpRain - if you know what partition number it is and what sizes they are you can choose the empty one. and you don't NEED a swap [06:43] stranger_in: i was joking :p [06:43] Hmm, okay - what will use largest contiguous free space do? Also, how will I know the partition number/how do I find it out? [06:43] melvi: yea, try some of the checkboxes under authentication. and try the MPPE [06:43] MPPEis checked :) [06:43] Also, will that be under advanced partitioning or something? [06:44] SharpRain - largest free space will resize. you will need to do manual partitioning [06:44] Mikelifeguard: hmm, copy paste doesn't work? [06:44] eljefe: Manual partitioning, okay, so what do I do once I'm in manual partitioning? [06:44] Mikelifeguard: if not, you have to mount your virtual hdd on your local machine and then simply copy it i guess, although i've never done it before [06:45] sharprain: pick the partition you want to put the distro on, format it (defaults ext3 or ext4), and set / as a mount point. <-- This will DELETE all the data on the partition [06:45] Is there anyway to drop back to jaunty?

[06:47] it will ask you what to format as [06:47] SharpRain: There will be an option to format it with ext3 [06:47] dabukalam: no, you can't drag-and-drop, nor copy-paste the file [06:47] Also, I'm in the process of getting a 1TB ext.

(i'm trying to make a batch user creation script, not crack passwords :)) [07:45] alkisg no, it's a hash of the original password [07:45] Mike_lifeguard: its part of a stock install, look into its control and you can make your cpu run faster or slower [07:45] alkisg obviously, if you could reverse engineer it, it would be useless [07:45] alkisg it is not only a hash, it is seeded [07:45] ActionParsnip: found it in cpufrequtils [07:45] alkisg: I think md5sum will hash a password [07:46] powertool08: you mean APT is the name of software and apt-get is a command line tools?

[07:51] Aarm: what OS are you transferring from? [07:51] ActionParsnip: i should have the qt libs installed already if i have kde installed, right? [07:52] Grundy: so we should flood people with possibly wrong information that doesn't fit their usecases?

[07:52] private message .. [07:53] ActionParsnip: thanks a lot. [07:53] jcmarini: no idea, sorry [07:53] Myrtti if the question was "I need to transfer files. What are my options?", then you could answer it with alternatives [07:53] how can i connect xp to linux [07:53] Grundy: Most people don't know about the alternatives. [07:53] Wall975: connect in what way? [07:53] Grundy: and most people that ask for ftp have no idea about the more secure alternatives [07:53] Flannel: i think thats what it was called tho maybe i have it wrong and thats why no search results come up, it was a special application catagory and like debian files that werent made for ubuntu but you install them in ubuntu dont always go into the application menu but this debian bar thing always had them in there if it was installed, i used to have it on gutsy [07:54] printer drivers are a problem. any joy with Brother anyone? [07:54] Myrtti 1) He doesn't care about the secure alternatives, he is transferring between 2 machines on the local network. 2) It is already done [07:54] i mean i have linux and xp vmwares.i want to access linux from xp [07:54] Myrtti ah, now you have your opening. Wall975 asked a very open ended question [07:54] Grundy: Please ditch the attitude [07:54] but through VMs? thats hard [07:54] Grundy: MD5 shadow entries start with $1$, not with $6$, so I suppose MD5 *isn't* what ubuntu uses by default? [07:54] Wall975: you need to bridge the connections so both systems appear on the LAN, You can then access them as if they were physical PCs [07:55] Wall975: you'll find better support in #vmware [07:55] Myrtti I suppose we should present him with all alternatives from Samba to sending serial bit streams [07:55] can somebody help me import a screensaver? [07:55] Wall975: if you have ssh installed, then you can get a windows program called winscp which is like secure ftp and its already ready to go i use it all the time super simple [07:55] what if i want to use telnet? [07:55] Wall975 don't. Use ssh. [07:56] Wall975: telnet is to ftp as ssh is to scp [07:56] Wall975 use samba if you want the whole "Windows networking" thing [07:56] Wall975: even if you dont care about security its easier just to install ssh and scp is ready to go [07:56] Wall975: both telnet and ftp data is sent in clear text and has no security [07:56] Wall975: and most ftp clients support scp anyway [07:56] Grundy: 1) having a secure local network now doesn't guarantee the computer that has ftpd will stay in there (might be a laptop) 2) this information is given to you as an advice to make you understand the implications that come with giving answers to questions that haven't been thought through by the person asking [07:56] Anyone using ack(-grep) who knows if I can add to the default ignored directories? [07:56] yea, winscp and putty are nice tools from windows [07:56] i am facing some flash problems on shiretoko..can anyone help me [07:56] !flash | PerryArmstrong [07:56] PerryArmstrong: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [07:57] i am a novice with linux [07:57] Myrtti as I said. He solved his problem and has moved on. [07:57] PerryArmstrong: if you install flashplugin-installer then it should sort you out [07:57] Grundy: doesn't void the point 2) [07:57] Wall975: can you use synaptic? [07:57] Grundy: ok I got it, it's SHA512 [07:57] !gnome-screensaver [07:57] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [07:57] ActionParsnip; i am trying and playing facebook apps....its taking time to load.... [07:58] Myrtti because point 2 had such mangled syntax I didn't read it all [07:58] Wall975: just get the package ssh in synaptic, or in console type sudo apt-get install ssh [07:58] Myrtti sorry, English is my native language [07:58] Grundy: advice - don't give rushed answers [07:58] How do i search for a certain word within files inside a dir and subdirs [07:59] Hey how do I put a shortcut into the Office menu in the top panel? [07:59] Myrtti advice, answer the questions people ask. More advice, when people can google the answers, tell them to do so. It may bolster some people's ego to give out simple answers, but it does not help the person asking. [07:59] lyrae: i think the find command will work, also gui from gnome-search-tool [07:59] Grundy: Solve the problem the people are having, not answer their questions. Its much more helpful. [07:59] ActiVision: drag from app menu [08:00] thanks xim_ [08:00] Myrtti or, the next time someone asks about a problem with Gnome being slow, is the advice "Install (flux)(open)box"? [08:00] I can't drag anything into there [08:00] Grundy: Please drop it, or join #ubuntu-offtopic if you insist on being obtuse [08:00] PerryArmstrong: maybe the servers are being maintained [08:00] xim_: i think find just searches for files [08:00] Flannel ok. Then I will take it the answer to the above Gnome question would be indeed to tell them to use openbox [08:00] i need to search for words within files [08:00] Flannel you are the one pursuing the conversation. Perhaps you should drop it. [08:01] lyrae: grep ca do that [08:01] lyrae: maybe right the gnome-search-tool will do it tho [08:01] s/ca/can [08:01] I could only drop it onto the top panel itself [08:01] ActionParsnip: thanks [08:01] xim_: ill try what ActionParsnip said first :) [08:01] thanks though [08:01] hi [08:01] lyrae: yeah its good to be able to do it in terminal, i use gnome-search-tool alot tho i have it on my main panel ;p [08:02] lp [08:02] ;p [08:02] ActionParsnip; nope my friends are able to play it....so will flashplugin-installer help? [08:03] is there anyway to get wine to run a bat file? its trying to read it as an exe directly [08:03] PerryArmstrong: try reinstalling flash, remove ALL flash plugins you have installed then reinstall flash using flashplugin-installer. If you are using 64bit Ubuntu you can use the 64bit native flash if you wish [08:03] ActionParsnip; i am on 32 bit [08:03] jcmarini: ...? [08:03] all my connections attempts failed with winscp [08:04] and now we have the reason you don't direct people away from their questions .... [08:04] ActiVision: notsure what you are wanting [08:04] PerryArmstrong: ok then pull all flashes out and then simply visit a page with flash like: ttp://www.rathergood.com/blode2 [08:04] jcmarini: I got a shortcut on my desktop and want it in the Office tab thing [08:05] jcmarini: And can't drag it anywhere else that the top panel [08:05] ActionParsnip: one sec [08:05] I just recorded a song and i want to cut off the end part of the song. What can I download to do that? [08:06] ActiVision: i am thinking [08:06] ActiVision: do you mean kn the gnome menu? [08:06] I guess [08:06] smogattack audacity [08:06] ActiVision: launch alacarte [08:07] ActiVision: you can add items to the gnome menu that way [08:07] ActionParsnip; shoould i disable divx?? [08:07] Grundy, how good is it? [08:07] thanx fellas.winscp is effecient [08:07] PerryArmstrong: i dont think that will conflict [08:07] Ok thanks [08:07] i need help spoofing a headless server into thinking theres a screen attatched [08:07] ActionParsnip: is there a way to just output the line int he file(s) it find? [08:07] Wall975: and much more secure than telnet / ftp [08:07] smogattack good enough. Try it and see [08:07] as of now it outputs the entire file [08:07] Wall975: toldja! it rocks! [08:07] Grundy, people say audacity isn't a good one to do that [08:08] yeah it doess [08:08] lyrae: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-search-find-file-for-text-string/ [08:08] Techie: Start another screen session (2), in that session (2), run ssh to the same box, reattach screen (1), detach (2) [08:08] smogattack then do whatever you want [08:08] ActiVision: mine has been there always [08:08] Grundy, then don't answer my question. [08:08] ActionParsnip: why thank you [08:08] I just recorded a song and i want to cut off the end part of the song. What can I download to do that? [08:08] ActionParsnip; i opened that page..it says the plugin for this page has been disabled [08:09] flannel: sorry did i say screen, i meant display [08:09] PerryArmstrong: bizarre, it only uses flash === randoms is now known as randoms|away [08:10] PerryArmstrong: ok run: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [08:10] PerryArmstrong: then rerun browser [08:10] I just recorded a song and i want to cut off the end part of the song. What can I download to do that? === randoms|away is now known as randoms [08:10] smogattack: audacity [08:11] Flannel, really? [08:11] !info audacity > smogattack [08:11] smogattack: Yeah, not audacious, audacity [08:11] .freequest.net [08:11] ActionParsnip: It's not working, it's just opening the shortcut in a text editor [08:11] jcmarini: What has always been there? [08:11] guess i'll give it a try. thanks Flannel and ActionParsnip [08:12] ActiVision: what is the shortcut to? [08:12] ActionParsnip: Google Docs Offline. It's just a http link I guess [08:13] ActiVision: then you need to tell it to launch a browser with the URL as an argument. E.g. opera http://www.bmezine.com [08:13] does ubuntu desktop come with a remote desktop client installed? [08:13] hi [08:13] ActionParsnip: How would I do that? With firefox [08:13] i need help fooling X into thinking there is a display attatched [08:13] ActiVision: if you create a launcher in alacarte, you need to have a command like that, or whatever browseryou use (midori, swiftox, firefox etc) [08:14] does anyone know how to connect to a password-protected folder on a MS peer-to-peer network [08:14] ActiVision: same, just replace opera with firefox [08:14] Oh.. [08:14] there is no username/password and domain [08:15] ActionParsnip; i did as u said..but i get the same message [08:15] It's working now, thanks [08:16] ActiVision: a url is not a program, firefox is a program [08:16] ActiVision: which is why it now works [08:16] PerryArmstrong: do you have any weird addons to block flash etc [08:16] ActionParsnip; i dont have any idea about it [08:16] confused. lyrae@localhost:~$ grep -H -o -r "$_SESSION" /home/lyrae/Desktop/claroline . one of the output lines: Binary file /home/lyrae/Desktop/claroline/claroline/admin/xtra/sdk/lang/language.png matches.... how is it finding the word $_SESSION in a png file [08:17] lyrae: files are made up of the same 1s and 0s as any file you can name [08:17] lyrae: if you read a binary as text, takeing 8 bit lumps and interpretting them as letters then this can easily happen [08:18] hey guys could someone please help me setup a web server? [08:18] ActionParsnip: really? sounds like big coincidence [08:18] lyrae: C and C++ can interchange between letters and numbers easily, it just reads the same data differently [08:18] lyrae: not at all, if you have a large enough file you may even get a few english words cropping up [08:18] bernardlychan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP will walk you through it (you can stop at apache if you just need html), be sure to ask if you have questions! [08:19] ty flannel [08:19] amazing [08:20] theTrav: Yes. Applications -> Internet -> Remote Desktop Viewer or Terminal Server Client, depending on which type of server you're connecting to. [08:21] lyrae: if you thik about how data is stored on a platter / ram and how that relates to ASCII, its not hugely amazing but its cool when it happens [08:23] rww, thanks, Terminal Server Client was the one [08:23] umm, ok, how do I disconnect from a session? [08:23] from full screen [08:23] ctrl alt delete doesn't do it [08:24] ActionParsnip: something's wrong =( [08:24] i copied and pasted a command from that site, but the output is not the same as his [08:25] lyrae: it won't be, he will have different files to you [08:25] theTrav: hitting [Cancel] on the login box did it for me, I'm trying to figure out if there's a keyboard shortcut for ir [08:25] ActionParsnip: no i mean, the format of the output [08:26] yeah, thanks, what I'm mainly looking for though is disconnect without logging out :/ [08:26] when booting my computer, it reboots at "Starting Samba Daemons" it just goes into an infinite loop. Anyone know why? [08:26] theTrav: oh, here it is. Ctrl-Alt-Enter [08:26] for example, for a certain command, the output should be filename.txt: (word found). but for me, it prints every line in the file [08:26] lyrae: maybe you have a different grep version. not sure, as long as you get an output its ok [08:26] i guess [08:26] oh, ta [08:27] Hello there, anyone feeling helpful?

[08:34] mib: never heard of one [08:34] im supposed to add the program path and also the license variable. [08:35] how do you make pidgin so it doesnt popup alerts whenever someone gets online or offline [08:35] mib: to add to the path use: export PATH=$PATH:/new/path [08:35] mib: ahhh this wont apply then [08:35] http://pastebin.com/d9a53fcd [08:35] waht do you mean? [08:36] mib: what is the output of: echo $CSURF [08:36] guys how do i edit the settings of apache? where do i put all my files for hosting?

[08:38] Redkid: that will need sudo [08:38] mib: its already there then , you just need to give it your license file [08:38] why does sudo bash actually give me a root terminal? [08:38] What's sudo? [08:39] pepperphd: as you are running bash with rott priveledges, so it will run as root, sudo -i is advised though [08:39] !sudo | Redkid [08:39] Redkid: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [08:39] do you mean http://pastebin.com/d238e1d30 ?

[08:41] pepperphd: with sudo you can do anything at all [08:41] ActionParsnip: so, is the one pasted command earlier is the right way to go?

For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [08:43] bernardlychan, use the root account, sudo or set the permissions for /var/www/ [08:44] root account? [08:44] so i log in as root? [08:44] bernardlychan: or unzip the files to home then sudo cp them [08:44] bernardlychan: no you NEVER log on as root [08:44] bernardlychan, oh sorry, i forgot ubuntu usually has that disabled [08:44] whoops... [08:45] ok... so how do i set permissions to the folder? === soulnet7_ is now known as la_niey [08:45] bernardlychan, chmod permission number /var/www [08:46] so i cd to the file, then i type chmod 777?

[08:46] sudo chmod 777 /var/www [08:46] and it can be done from anywhere [08:46] Bad idea. :\ [08:47] leaf-sheep, he suggested 777, not me [08:47] bernardlychan: its more secure to extract the files to home, you can then run: gksudo nautilus, copy the data over, then close nautilus [08:47] how i can make for when i enter to ssh show in pass digits *** [08:47] ? [08:47] bernardlychan: dont use 777 on anything, its the worst thing to do to any file or folder on a system [08:47] ActionParsnip1, hehe i do that all the time [08:47] Cannot open 'boot/grub/device.map' [: 494: =: unexpected operator [08:48] why ActionParsnip1? [08:48] Techie: its significanyly reducing security and you may be setting execute access on files that arent executable [08:48] bernardlychan, what hes saying is that if you give it a permission of 777 anyone can read write and execute it [08:48] chris`: Learn. Accept. Realize it is far better off invisible as the people can't guess the number of characters in your password. [08:48] bernardlychan: look into what it actually does and to whom it allows access [08:49] ahh ok techie. so if i'm hosting a webserver, they'll be able to access it? [08:49] bernardlychan, yes [08:49] bernardlychan: anyone in caps. literally ANYONE [08:49] Anyone know why it would give me that error?

[08:49] [leaf-sheep] but is a Virutal machine just for make it [08:50] bernardlychan, doing it as a superuser is usually best [08:50] how do i do this? [08:50] bernardlychan, sudo [08:50] bernardlychan: like i said, run: gksudo nautilus and put the files where they need to go, if you need to only edit them you can run: gksudo gedit [08:50] ty action [08:50] bernardlychan: if you dont have X then you will need sudo cp at command line [08:50] sweet u r awesome [08:50] is there a way to mount partitions from a disk image?

What can I check? [08:51] thats exactly what doesnt work [08:51] it wants me to specify the filesystem type [08:52] but two partitions are linux and two are windows [08:52] or vfat [08:52] chris`: "Unfortunately, I have already brought this up with the developers and they're not going to implement this."

[09:21] !9.10 | yannis_ [09:21] yannis_: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [09:21] stranger_in: we are brothers n sisters in Ubuntu Linux Unix [09:21] jcmarini, k....... [09:21] ubottu, thank's, i like the 9.10 than Karmic Koala [09:21] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [09:21] jcmarini, try this link [09:21] jcmarini, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=590793 [09:21] yannis_they are one and the same thing, support for karmic is not here [09:22] stranger_in: ty cheers [09:22] yannis_, 9.04 is th most recent stable version [09:22] jcmarini, there are many drivers in this link http://solutions.brother.com/linux/en_us/ [09:23] ActionParsnip1: my bad.. i tried the password from the admin account :| it was to my understanding that 'sudo' had its own password for protection. (Wouldnt that be safer somehow? If my 'not so safe' user with sudo acces is cracked, they can use sudo?) [09:23] jcmarini, if it got success pls leave me a mail in mail [at] gnuise.co.cc [09:23] jcmarini, i am leaving........ bye........ [09:23] mtlife: no you authorise your account with your login password. You should not share your logon credentials. This is what makes it secure [09:24] hello, how do i add NetworkManager Applet to a panel on my GNOME desktop? [09:24] ActionParsnip1: yes but my box is constantly under random attacks on the ssh front, ofcourse i dont share. Maybe i should set the ssh server on a differen port [09:24] mtlife: makes sense, or you could use key authentication only and not use passwords [09:25] stranger_in: be nice to yourself [09:25] mtlife: then unless you have given them a special file they will get no where [09:26] drygrain: right click panel -> addto panel. I think its an app rather than a panel applet [09:26] ActionParsnip1: mmm that makes sense, and i could use double protection with key auth and passwords. that way i could put the special file on a ftp/usb stick and still feel safe [09:26] How can I add menu items in Gnome that apply to all users on the system? [09:27] drygrain: alt-f2, type nm-applet. it should launch automatically though, if you've got networkmanager installed. === soulnet7 is now known as laniey [09:27] mtlife: sounds good to me [09:27] why are benchmark results on every browser on linux 2 times lower than on windows? http://service.futuremark.com/peacekeeper/ [09:28] uni4dfx: poor config of linux box most likely [09:28] ActionParsnip1, so ubuntu has poor default configs? [09:29] Dunno about you uni but I don't have to run benchmarks to notice how much smoother surfing is on linux then windblows [09:29] uni4dfx: i think so [09:29] Gouda, it's the opposite in my case... it's horribly CPU intensive in linux and perfectly smooth in winblows [09:30] uni4dfx: where is the data that shows benchmark scores on Linux? :/ [09:30] uni4dfx: what browsers have you tried? [09:30] ActionParsnip1, FF3.0, Chromium, Opera 10 [09:30] firefox is not resource friendly [09:30] uni4dfx: thought so [09:30] Chromium gives best results [09:30] try FF3.5 :P [09:30] but two times lower than on windows [09:30] uni4dfx: try swiftfox, firepup, Kazekahase [09:31] and Chromium is not usable. [09:31] uni4dfx: they are so much lighter than ff etc [09:31] uni4dfx: or midori is pretty sweet too [09:31] ActionParsnip1, i've used swiftfox in the past, but it was never any better than ordinary firefox [09:31] Uni, what are you running for a cpu? [09:32] Gouda, T7100 @ 1.80GHz [09:32] uni4dfx: try epiphany too [09:32] uni4dfx: you should upgrade to 3.5. it's a lot faster. [09:32] uni4dfx: though, it's not as fast as the webkit-based browsers. [09:32] sup anyone know if nvidia fixed the support for sli cards yet? i can't seem to find information regarding if its working for my nvidia geforce 9400M [09:32] ahhhh no wonder. I'm running a quadcore [09:32] hi guys, I have a server machine with eth0 and eth1 devices... to make eth1 to share internet connections, eth0 must have the same IP family of eth1 ? I mean, eth0 192.168.90,2 .. eth1 must be 192.168.90.x or I can set it to 192.168.130.x ? [09:33] uni4dfx: hm. what graphics card do you have? [09:33] Chousuke, GeForce 8600M GT [09:33] uni4dfx: there are great many browsers, people seem to gravitate towards firefox without thinking which i think is pretty bad [09:33] that should be fine I guess. [09:34] ActionParsnip1: Firefox isn't that bad. [09:34] ActionParsnip1, hold on let me run the benchmark on Galium [09:34] I've been using firefox for awhile and haven't had problems with it [09:34] how can i move some files from a folder by date ? is it possible something like this ? $ls -l | grep 2009-08-14 | cp ?????? [09:34] Chousuke: but others arent even considered [09:34] ActionParsnip1: though there are faster browsers, Firefox is not slow. and it has myriads of cool add-ons [09:34] Gouda: ff3.5 is stable as a rock here [09:34] Familiarity plays a big part in people's choices [09:35] ActionParsnip1: I would not use firefox if it weren't for vimperator :/ [09:35] heheh gartral. I think I need to uprade. Im running 3.0 [09:35] Chousuke: vimperator? [09:35] Chousuke: maybe so but if "cool addons" arent needed then people still automatically grab firefox even when there may be a better solution. [09:35] !shiretoko | Gouda [09:35] Gouda: FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation [09:35] gartral: modal keyboard browsing for firefox inspired by vim [09:36] are there any FF3.5 repos for jaunty? i don't want my firefox to be called shiteroko [09:36] Chousuke: Owww... that made my head hurt to think of.. [09:36] uni4dfx: why is it such a bad thing? [09:36] gartral: it's awesome. [09:36] ActionParsnip1, it's unnecessarily confusing [09:36] gartral: I can't use normal browsers comfortably anymore :( [09:36] uni4dfx: its the same app, theres just one word difference. [09:36] !ff3.5 | uni4dfx [09:36] uni4dfx: Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko in your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY [09:37] Всем привет. [09:37] stranger_in: sorry. been browsing forum. [09:37] !ru | vadim [09:37] vadim: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [09:37] Chousuke: i keep going into a windows or mac environ and trying to middle click-paste.. [09:37] Will have to work on installing that next after I get through installing Orange Box :) [09:37] gartral: heh. [09:37] gartral: I can't decide whether I like middle-click pasting or not. [09:37] hi guys anyone here with ecryptfs knowledge? [09:37] gartral: sometimes it's just annoying :/ [09:38] gartral: or rather, the "copy by painting" part of it. [09:38] ActionParsnip1, yea but why did they need to add the confusion? i don't understand this... why don't they do that for windoze? [09:38] Chousuke: true.. there needs to be a proper grab element.. like click to copy select, or click to paste to input [09:38] gartral: want to replace a region of text with something from the clipboard? ... no painting the text for you... [09:38] uni4dfx: its spelt "windows" [09:38] uni4dfx: email the devs and ask them [09:39] LOL [09:39] Good one Action [09:39] uni4dfx: it's called shiretoko because Firefox 3.0 is called firefox on ubuntu. [09:39] uni4dfx: and since you can have both installed at the same time, you need something to differentiate. [09:40] its called shiretoko cause mozilla doesn't want bugs related too the firefox branding >.> [09:40] Chousuke, couldn't it just be replaced? [09:40] uni4dfx: no, because Jaunty is stable. [09:40] any oracle buffs in here? [09:40] hi i have suse linux now.. should i change? [09:40] uni4dfx: major version upgrades are forbidden. [09:40] Chousuke, IMHO, that is just plain stupid [09:40] ditzel: if you like suse, and it suits your needs. Keep it. Otherwise it could be beneficial to change. it may give you less [09:40] uni4dfx: but people asked for 3.5, so the ubuntu people provided it as an optional install. [09:40] anyone here who is using tmpfs for ~/ in conjunction with ecryptfs? [09:41] Chousuke: even though FF3.5 has security related changes and improvements [09:41] uni4dfx: it's what guarantees that thinks keep working. [09:41] gartral: it also has new bugs. [09:41] things* [09:41] nubfilter, I bet you would have great luck with that in #oracle [09:41] Chousuke, well so much for the 'linux choice and configurability' [09:41] well... i was thinking more along the lines of choosing a host vm OS === soulnet5 is now known as aqqq [09:42] uni4dfx: bah. that's just bull :) [09:42] I have a major thing to take care of and then I am golden in my ubuntu install. I need to get my Nostromo working and keybinds set for my games........ugh not looking forward to that extravaganza [09:42] uni4dfx: it is, modify the source code to shiretoko and you can make it say firefox [09:42] nubfilter, whats the got to do with oracle? [09:42] uni4dfx: you can always backport the package, or install the development version of Ubuntu. [09:42] ditzel : sure,for u've joined ubuntu channel [09:42] :) [09:42] uni4dfx: OR just use the shiretoko package like everyone else... [09:42] nubfilter, please direct to my name so I can read your replys [09:42] Anyone else here use a Nostromo? [09:42] Gouda: Nostromo? [09:42] i was wondering if anyone using ubuntu reccomends it over any other distro for such activities [09:42] ActionParsnip1, ok i've tested Galeon and got almost the same result as in FF3.0 [09:43] Nostromo is a gamepad device [09:43] www.n52te.com [09:43] uni4dfx: try midori [09:43] ActionParsnip1, ok [09:43] but I shall visit #oracle as well [09:43] nubfilter, depends how hard the oracle DB will be used... [09:43] uni4dfx: the point is, Jaunty is stable, and people need to be able to trust that no major changes happen. [09:43] very lightly [09:43] uni4dfx: going from 3.0 to 3.5 is a major change. [09:43] Why does the while-loop in BC print line numbers? http://pastebin.com/m7cbf568e [09:43] just for a sandbox [09:43] nubfilter, I would say it should be fine [09:43] uni4dfx: which is why it just can't happen. [09:44] I can't tell you how much i am having a blast learning Linux. windows just sucks so much ass and is so vunlnerable [09:44] vulnerable* [09:44] is there some commando/program to read a ntfs drive that it cant find partitions on? [09:44] ActionParsnip1, hmm, midori crashes when i press "start benchmark" :P [09:44] uni4dfx: it's different on windows where you have no real package management and your software is always your own responsibility. [09:44] uni4dfx: nice [09:44] Gouda: ohh.. a cyborg-interface.. cool.. how much was the surgery? [09:44] nubfilter, I will say this...Oracle is resource hungry, it likes to eat up and hold onto system resources [09:44] uni4dfx: but Ubuntu actually helps you to keep your software stable and secure. [09:44] uni4dfx: look at how little ram midoi uses though :D [09:45] ActionParsnip1, xD [09:45] lol gartral.....what? [09:45] fox, yes my crappy T60 at work seems to come to a crawl when I start the oracle instance on it [09:45] You totally lost me with the cyborg comment [09:45] Gouda: a joke, if you've ever seen Ghost in the Shell, you would understand [09:45] one of the main reasons I want to run it inside a VM on my mac [09:45] I have it on cd....it's just been awhile since ive watched it [09:45] Like years..... [09:46] could someone run that browser benchmark, i wanna see if i'm really the only one with bad results [09:46] http://service.futuremark.com/peacekeeper/ [09:46] nubfilter, just be warned and give the guest a pretty good chunk of memory to use if you can or it will crawl too, and when oracle crawls it rejects queries [09:47] I was thinking 1-2gb of ram. Once we start doing integration testing/performance testing we will be going to a 4 node RAC of Power6 frames [09:48] nubfilter, why do you need to use oracle? [09:48] hi guys if i have a 1tb ext3 formatted hd which is totally empty but still it says "50 gibs" used, how come??? [09:48] nubfilter, ah...some predefined requirement [09:49] noobez: journal most likely [09:49] i think ext3 is able to handle 1TB ... just do it again [09:49] foxbuntu, yes it's incredibly fast... I just wish that pgsql had a RAC equivilent [09:49] ActionParsnip1: so ur telling me is the regular 5% allocated to inodes and superblocks? [09:49] the licensing of oracle is killer [09:49] or try reiserfs or ext4 ... but ext4 is harder to backup [09:49] noobez: you have chosen ext3. ext3 has a journal which needs stoing, so you are using that space for the journal [09:50] you can backup ext4 with clonezilla [09:50] trg: i backup ext4 with cp ;) [09:50] nubfilter, when it works as its supposed to, yes it is quite fast...but very temperamental (at least in my experience) [09:50] hey guys [09:51] i need some help [09:51] year .. but i am lazy ... wanna have an all in one solusion .. therefor i use acronis [09:51] my ktorrent webui isnt loading after i login, it shows a blank screen [09:51] any thoughts [09:51] raj3186: is ktorrent running? [09:51] ActionParsnip1: what if i give a tune2fs -m 1 /dev/whatever in order to remove the reserved blocks for root? [09:51] uni4dfx, I got 1161 on Firefox 3.5 [09:51] yes [09:51] it is [09:51] 1 n00b question [09:51] can it work under GNOME [09:52] foxbuntu, yes it is, but for 10TB databases with HA requirements it's pretty much Oracle or DB2 [09:52] noobez: you can do that, you will need to umount the partitions on the drive first afaik [09:52] i can download/upload as well [09:52] ActionParsnip1: ok thanks [09:52] foxbuntu, it should be twice that on windows :/ [09:52] raj3186: yes, any X app can run under any DE [09:52] anyone solved compatibility problem with some cpanel? [09:52] only thing is after i login, it shows a blank page [09:52] nothing happens [09:52] of course will it run under gnome [09:52] nubfilter, yes, or 4x the size for a MS SQL cluster [09:52] guys, in ubuntu, at /etc/resolv.conf the nameserver name must be nameserver or can be anything I want to ? [09:53] any solution for compatibilty issue with some cpanel [09:53] ? [09:53] i00nsu, name server is a keyword, not a title [09:53] raj3186: did you install php5-cli and php-pear? [09:53] i00nsu, its required to be nameserver [09:53] hmm yes? [09:53] i think so [09:53] nameserver=YOURDNSSERVRE [09:53] i00nsu: must be a valid namesever [09:54] raj3186: sudo apt-get install php5-cli php-pear [09:54] I'll admit I love MSSQL but not at scale as you say [09:54] DTS alone is worth it's weight in gold [09:54] nameserver=192.168.0.1 for example .. check your router === ditzel is now known as Rashman [09:54] raj3186: in the web ui config you must point the app to where the php binary is too [09:55] yes i did [09:55] it shows a green light which i assume, php is loaded [09:55] nubfilter, agreed...its great for small apps and web content, its awesome for things like that, but you get out there in big boy land with oracle and DB2 and forget it [09:55] but [09:55] there are 2 php files, php5 and php [09:55] raj3186: as long as the light is green thats fine [09:55] yea [09:56] raj3186: have you set a username and password for the UI [09:56] nubfilter, I do app support and code support for a custom app to store images in a repo as we handle 3.5mil pages of paper converted to image per day [09:56] nubfilter, thats all on oracle [09:57] nubfilter, the image pointers are in oracle...lol, we would destroy the DB if we did blobs [09:57] lol [09:58] cheers from oz [09:58] well just installed ktorrent ... works nice [09:58] hahaha [09:58] (ubuntu running xfce) [09:58] still not working :( [09:58] trg: well now yu have a tonne of kde libs in the mix too ;) [09:58] yes I'm working for a utility, we're implementing AMI (think your electric meter is read hourly or every 15 minutes) [09:58] raj3186: do you have any other apps listening on :8080 [09:59] i tried changing port :( [09:59] not worked [09:59] no ... i use many kde apps anyway like k3b and kaffeine ... [09:59] trg: gotcha [09:59] raj3186: I'd ask in #kubuntu [10:00] can any one tell me a gui to notify me if something happens in the firewall logs - eg it blocks something [10:00] thank you [10:00] raj3186 ... getting any stderr messages? [10:00] ActionParsnip1, 1064 on FF3.5/Linux... and 2k on the same browser in Windows [10:00] techtronic: firestarter [10:01] uni4dfx: 1064 what> [10:01] no messages [10:01] uni4dfx: apples? [10:01] ActionParsnip1, benchmark points :P [10:01] so the ktorrent starts up and you can see the gui? [10:01] you just can connect? [10:01] cant [10:01] yea [10:01] well [10:01] may ask something about Red Hat in here? [10:01] i see the login screen [10:01] i enter user/pass [10:02] and next a blank screen [10:02] :( [10:02] raj3186: can you log on from localhost? [10:02] raj3186: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:02] ciao a tutti [10:02] is it ok to as something about Red Hat in here? [10:02] gnome login? [10:02] uni4dfx: is that on the same system? [10:02] Ktorrent login [10:02] ActionParsnip1, yup [10:02] ok [10:02] The_Bridge: try #redhat or #fedora [10:02] Actually, im referring to the webui login === jgoo is now known as woohoo [10:02] have you checked port-forwarding [10:02] uni4dfx: funky, try firefox via wine [10:02] thx [10:02] of your router [10:02] ActionParsnip1, good idea [10:03] uni4dfx: 3.5.2 + flash runs fine here [10:03] hey [10:03] i have kernel 2.6-30 [10:03] and this doesnt recognize wirelss and bluetooth [10:03] but i have 2.6-28 [10:03] that recognize wirelss and bluetooth [10:03] wef....! [10:03] lol@raj [10:04] lucas_ , you compiled the kernel yourself? [10:05] well i dont get an log-in screen ... it starts up ... configure ports ... search torrent ... start download ... [10:05] ActionParsnip1: by giving a tune2fs -l /dev/sd** i found out that 50 gibs of my 1tb ext3 hd are being kept as superblocks for root, but i dont need them since this hd is not the fs one, im thinking about proceeding like this tune2fs -m0 /dev/sd** but someone just told me that those superblocks are also used to restore a fs in case it gets corrupted/damaged, is that correct? cuz 50gigbs itz allot and ill prefer to free them up for my personal use. THANKS [10:05] kernel 2.6.30 with the latest patch 2.6.30-5 woks good for me. [10:05] noobez: yes, if you are going to use 0 then it will be ext2 [10:06] ActionParsnip1: wait, what u mean? i didnt really got this, could u explain further, thank you [10:06] noobez: you may as well reformat to ext2 if you are using 0 superblocks, thats what advantage ext3 has over ext2 but you are removing it [10:06] I'd like to install couchdb version 0.9.0-2ubuntu5, but the current release has superseeded it - 0.10.0~svn809550-0ubuntu1 [10:06] shinoj, no [10:06] i just installed it with synaptic [10:06] is there a way i can force apt to source build the older versoin? [10:06] somebody useing tmpfs for /home? [10:07] noobez: the whole point of ext3 is to have a jounal, ext3 without a jounal is ext2 [10:07] noobez: you are using tune2fs to remove ext3's journal yu may as well save bother and format it to ext2 [10:08] ActionParsnip1: well, i dont think its a good idea to totally remove journaling, its useful to restore a corrupted hd anyway, so what i'll do is to reduce the percentage from 5% to 1% of superblocks, du think thatz a good idea? [10:09] hi my ubuntu keeps freezing. i've copied the log folder and uploaded to mediafire, will someone pleease see what is wrong for me? [10:09] http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1hmgoondowz [10:09] noobez: sounds ok, its 10Gb of journal [10:10] ActionParsnip1: thatz ok right? itz not the fs hd anyway, its an archive on which ill put files and stuff so 1% should be ok [10:10] noobez: your call. i can only advise [10:10] sorry, back [10:11] ActionParsnip1: so the command is "tune2fs -m 1 /dev/sd**" right? or there's no space between m and 1 ? [10:11] any thoughts :( [10:11] hey ActionParsnip, will u see what is wrong in my logs? i'm a bit of a n00b so don't know how [10:11] i dont get an log in screen at all when useing ktorrent [10:11] noobez: i'd websearch, see what the deal is [10:11] shall i try removing the user/pass? [10:11] trg: you need to install php5-cli [10:11] ActionParsnip1, FF3.5 via Wine gets 1035 points... almost the same as native [10:11] i just put in the ports and it is running [10:11] wtf..! [10:11] year [10:12] why not ... give it a try [10:12] ActionParsnip1: talking about the command only or talking about doing some research on my whole idea? [10:12] let me try [10:12] uni4dfx: tada! [10:12] noobez: the command [10:12] it asks me for a user/pass again [10:12] damn [10:13] Hi, i'm trying pulse and would like to route both my usb headset mic and totem output to the audio recording app (gnome-sound-recorder)! Can this be done?

But it's still happening for me. I've tried installing the packages mentioned on that page, but they don't exist any more (been rolled into the main gimp package, I think). [10:41] bong: great, now setup the port forward in your router to the apache service and you have a web server [10:42] ActionParsnip1: i asked here and "someone" said it was ok!!! [10:42] noobez: it is, you just need to get a good command set [10:43] karmic is not released yet am i right? [10:43] i want to grep ‎(i think) a bunch of files in directory foo, including all files in all subdirectories for a text string of boo. how do i do that?

[10:44] scx: bash [10:44] scx: for startup scripts, yes. For users, the default shell is bash.

[10:46] unless of course grep has that feature built in ;) [10:46] :) [10:46] scx: if you want you can use sh or dash for your own scripts [10:46] it's a GNU tool, of course it has every feature built in [10:46] how do i exit a proccses? [10:46] ActionParsnip1: i need libboost 1.38 which is only available in karmic, while i'm still on intrepid. could i use the package from karmic or would i break things that way? [10:46] I was sending him on a journey Phlip :P [10:46] sweet. i'm greppingh away [10:46] debconf ask me: [10:46] "rgrep" is also a shorthand for "grep -r", but I prefer the latter, 'cause not every distro has the former [10:47] "use dash as default system shell (/bin/sh)?"

[10:47] mtlife: it will break things [10:47] http://sumberindo.dyndns.org [10:47] Hi is there a command line input to get the multimedia codecs like in Mint's apt install ubuntu-extras?

[10:48] rww: ok, thanks [10:48] mtlife: i wouldnt recommend it but i cant stop you. The karmic debs will need karmic deps and you'll get a big tanled mess of debs [10:49] bong: it resolves to 118.137.40.78 here [10:49] bong: have you had the account at dydns long? [10:50] yes [10:50] ActionParsnip1: alright i think ive made a big mistake: the superblock thing and the renaming label thing has been performed erroneously by me on sdb1 (which is the hd with the fs!) i typed "sudo fdisk -l" before to be sure on which hd to work but i missread, it was sdd1 the non-fs one, instead all ive done was on the sdb1 the fs-one, but nothing changed till now, do u think ubuntu is going to perform the changes after reboot? o_O [10:50] 118.137.40.78 is my public IP? [10:50] noobez: one way to find out, if its only a data drive you will still get a boot [10:51] bong: http://www.ipchicken.com [10:51] bong: whats it say? [10:51] 118.137.40.78 [10:51] bong: looks like we have a match [10:52] bong: and you set up the port forwarding [10:52] bong: port 80 TCP to the port you are running apache on? [10:52] Need help to get codecs via terminal [10:52] ActionParsnip1: it's not! thatz what im saying, unfortunately i missread and performed the commands on the sdb1 which is the one with the fs!! [10:52] Hutch: which codecs, specifically? [10:52] Hutch: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [10:53] mp3 _dvd [10:53] noobez: hmm, not sure then [10:53] Hutch: for dvd you need libdvdcss2 from the medibuntu repo [10:53] thanks ActionParsnip1 I missed off the 1st - [10:53] bong: if you browse: http://localhost [10:53] bong: do you get a page? [10:54] Hutch: grab ubuntu-restricted-extras, install libdvdread4 if you don't have it, then do "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh". [10:54] I set my linksys router port 80 enable TCP [10:54] bong: ok and did you tell it to forward to the IP of your we serving system? [10:55] bong: this is why the manual is useful === natureshadow1 is now known as natureshadow [10:56] hello [10:56] trying to install ubuntu 9.04 and getting this error: "Executing 'grub-install (hd0)' failed.

[10:57] I assign static DHCP 192.168.1.138 for my webserver computer [10:57] i need help please [10:57] the specifics are xubuntu 9.04 amd64 if that matters. i've done a disk check and also done a manual md5sum of the disk and it checks out fine [10:57] bong: great move [10:57] rww what does do? [10:57] ActionParsnip1: could i use the libboost1.38 package from launchpad.net for intrepid without breaking stuff? (or well, could i use it inside the package management system so, that if i upgrade to 9.10 it automatically picks it up?) [10:58] bong: and you told the router to forward all requests on port 90 to .1.138 port 80 [10:58] rww this bit: install-css.sh [10:58] and forward 80 TCP 192.168.1.138 enable [10:58] anyone? [10:58] Hutch: the install-css.sh script grabs libdvdcss from the medibuntu site and installs it for you, so you don't have to go through the rigamarole of adding the repo and getting the key and w/e. [10:59] mtlife: i dont suggest it, you can but it may break your system. I suggest you find a PPA with the newer version compiled for intrepid, upgrade to armic now, or wait 2 months until official release [10:59] rww brilliant chrs [10:59] bong: ok and is apache running? [10:59] ActionParsnip1: alright letz assume i restored the original situation, why wouldnt a "sudo e2label /dev/sdd1 name" work? (on the right hd this time, so not the fs one) [10:59] noobez: not sure, i dont use labels [10:59] hey folks, Ive been tasked at work with finding a good local side http filter... u guys know of anything? [10:59] Hutch: the relevant help page for this, by the way, is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs [11:00] ActionParsnip1: alright thanks for the help, not gonna bother anymore ;) bye [11:00] my work = guadalinex-edu, open source educational linux distro based on ubuntu [11:02] I can browse from network pc http://sumberindo.dyndys.org [11:02] rww + ActionParsnip1 thanx 4 the help:-D [11:02] the outcome It works!

[11:07] 118.137.40.78 [11:07] bong: i'm trying to connect with your IP and getting no where, your port forward is bad, or your router needs a reboot to apply the change [11:07] so... anyone know of any local side content filters.... (not server side like dansguardian)?

[12:16] Whats the latest version of Wine? [12:16] I need to setup my registered domain with my ubuntu server no dns server is needed as my server host provides that but when looking at dns records i have "DNS server returned an error: Name server failed" [12:17] Toasty, should be listed in #winehq [12:17] bazhang: i installed that but dont see the applet in there... [12:17] I should probably just ask my question in there huh? [12:18] Toasty, I would check the appdb first [12:18] if this isn't the right place for my problem please direct me to the right place [12:18] Where would i do that at?

[12:22] It looks like some kind of blank screen saver. [12:22] Toasty, okay; I have found apps that work well have a snappy wine, and those that dont (eg iTunes) lag really badly. Your mileage may vary [12:23] I remember that somewhere in Ubuntu I changed a power profile setting from automatic to power-saving. Does anyone know where that setting is? [12:23] Okay, heres whats happening, not having a single wine app open, and just trying to access the settings menu for wine will lag everything [12:23] It's a ubuntu 9.04 server edition, btw. [12:23] apoc_: I have tried doing a lot of searching on google, but no luck. [12:24] I am quite sure I changed something like that somewhere [12:24] So it's a power-saving thing, not a terminal screen saver? [12:25] is it easy to get wine to run games like crysis ? [12:25] Then screen does not turn off as it would if it got no signal, it simply shows all black. [12:25] when i try to boot my server, it resets itsself at "Starting Samba Daemons", and goes into an infinite loop. Any ideas?

[14:36] !checkinstall | Beefcaked [14:36] Beefcaked: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! [14:37] whats man grub [14:37] llutz: is this the same as the cleaninstall app I was introduced to back then? [14:37] do you mean the grub page or wiki [14:37] wiki is fine [14:37] Beefcaked: afaik there is only one checkinstall and you should consider using it instead of "make install" [14:38] yea but will this adress the issue that the partition im tryin to boot into was sda6 but now is sda5? [14:38] llutz: okay, thank you. Halitech is helping me at the moment so im just following whatever he says hehe [14:38] :D [14:38] Beefcaked: refuse to follow "make install" :) [14:38] Hello friends. [14:39] Howdie ProGeek [14:39] llutz: haha he might refuse to 'help' if im not obedient :p [14:39] Beefcaked: installing stuff besides the package-management is not a good idea [14:39] I am fine Sidewinder1, thanx buddy, how is very thing at your side ?

[15:41] I love the 'screen' that comes with ubuntu [15:41] i wanna install it on our servers, does anyone know what the package is called? [15:41] ari5av: yes [15:42] lstarnes: blkid will give the UUID of partitions. I "think" he can then compare to fstab and correct if needed [15:42] the screen that shows your cpu/ram/date/time [15:42] FirstSgt|Work: what do you mean by 'screen'? [15:42] wondering, i'm running xubuntu on an old macbook. when return from sleep most of the time the wirless stops working, no networks found. i guess this is a common issue with the drivers? [15:42] any workaroundß [15:42] FirstSgt|Work: I'm not sure which program that is [15:42] lstarnes, http://paste.org/pastebin/view/10223 [15:42] KushedVapors: in terminal type sudo blkid compare fstab and menu.lst to that. blkid will have the correct uuids [15:43] Lardon: ide-scsi became obsolete with 2.6 kernels, you must be looking at something very old [15:43] ok, so make sure they're shared on the "windows network" which is just smb protocol on your local network [15:43] hello all, I was wondering if someone could suggest a package for lightening video, much like enhancing photos with say gimp or other but for video. particularly .avi format. [15:43] lstarnes: the screen that is for your shell [15:43] lstarnes: what does it mean when theres a "*" in the "boot" section in the fdisk -l output [15:43] that you use when you have multi code windows open [15:43] KushedVapors, active i believe [15:44] FirstSgt|Work: the package name for screen is screen [15:44] ari5av: yes, they are. other windows machines connect and use them [15:44] stew: then, do you have any idea why i get the cd-rom error? [15:44] FirstSgt|Work: as in the one that supports detaching and retaching? [15:44] on ubuntu, system->administration->printing. delete any printers you've got that aren't working, you want to start from scratch [15:44] stew: but the one for ubuntu is like none i've ever seen [15:44] lstarnes: yeah [15:44] KushedVapors: under the "boot" column? [15:44] FirstSgt|Work: screen [15:44] ari5av: ok [15:44] lstarnes: yes [15:44] * tj83_ could not live without screen [15:44] KushedVapors, its active for boot. [15:44] lstarnes: is that cause i mounted it? [15:44] KushedVapors: it might mean that it is marked as bootable [15:45] lstarnes: but my rhel screne doesn't have the options for the cpu/ram/date/time & F9 Menu like Ubuntu 9.05 [15:45] KushedVapors: or active [15:45] hit new, it'll search. under network printer, hit windows printer via samba [15:45] FirstSgt|Work: I don't recall screen showing that data [15:45] FirstSgt|Work: maybe you're thinking about top [15:45] lstarnes: the one im in doesnt have that [15:45] lstarnes: no man, i am in irssi staring at it, lol [15:45] lstarnes: (partition) [15:45] get the URI for the printer right, and hit forward for a while until done [15:45] FirstSgt|Work: I haven't seen that behavior before [15:46] lstarnes: neither have I, but I like it. [15:46] KushedVapors, if you need more clarification pastebin your fdisk -l output [15:46] it'll show up in your printers gui if everything worked [15:46] hello all, I was wondering if someone could suggest a package for lightening video, much like enhancing photos with say gimp or other but for video. particularly .avi format. [15:46] here, i will copy bottom of shell window [15:46] right click printer, hit test page [15:46] help [15:46] and if something goes wrong, tell me [15:46] How can I restore ALSA I tried upgrading it and it messed up [15:46] lucas_: be more specific [15:46] !paste | FirstSgt|Work [15:46] FirstSgt|Work: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel.

[15:48] jerkman, are they supported in linux at all? [15:48] lstarnes: did you see that, he knows what i mean ;) [15:48] FirstSgt|Work: It's byobu on 9.10, I'm not sure what it's on 9.04 [15:48] * nathan7 is always ahead of the croud [15:48] lucas_: let them know [15:48] jerkman: what make/model are the printers? [15:48] * nathan7 switched to 3.6 once FF 3.5 came out [15:48] stew: sick, thanks [15:49] FirstSgt|Work: I personally have no use for that functionality [15:49] idyllic: no [15:49] KushedVapors, ok, its saying that you have two physical drives, only one partition on each can be active for boot, and the first drive will the be active partition to actually boot. the other may be marked bootable but will not boot by default. the "*" indicates that is the active bootable partition on that physical drive. [15:49] ari5av: both have linux drivers [15:49] lstarnes: its nice to see all the screen titles [15:49] ari5av: but it seems samba isnt connecting, so maybe that is the actual issue?? [15:49] well, they are hidden files. Press Ctrl+H in nautilus at ur home folder. See if they are there? [15:49] then samba should have no problem, it's really a very generic protocol [15:49] that could be it [15:49] jerkman, if they are supported in linux they should work ivia samba [15:49] lstarnes: especially when you are working on 8 concurrent sites. [15:49] can you see a fileshare over samba to the same computer? [15:50] hello [15:50] FirstSgt|Work: I usually use C-a i to check that [15:50] who tried bugzilla3 with ubuntu server 9.04 ? [15:50] ari5av: interesting... "Failed to recieve share list from server" [15:50] idyllic: nautilus? [15:51] Halitech: one of them is a driver from a CD tho, Samsung ML-2240 [15:51] there we are then. this is a windows issue, not a samba problem [15:51] your permissions aren't set right. [15:51] hey, i have a problem with pulseaudio [15:51] ari5av, normally the case :P [15:51] ari5av: no, because the other win machines on the network have no problem [15:51] okay. open your terminal. type without the quote "ls -la | grep asound" [15:51] ari5av: printers and files are shared and it all works... [15:52] how to list all installed packages in ubuntu? [15:52] does it spit out anything? [15:52] herm [15:52] idyllic: no [15:52] tj83_: sorry but dont understand cuz i have another linuxmint partition that aint "*"ed and i regularly get into that one since my main one messed up with this whole problem. im currently in the 5 gig one. [15:52] ari5av: just apparently not for me [15:52] VaNNi: sudo apt-cache dump (WARNING: LARGE OUTPUT) [15:52] jerkman, I have an ml-2510 that works fine, just get the driver from the samsung site instead ... also, if it prints locally, the issue is either samba is not set up right or connectivity issue [15:52] http://127.0.0.1/ gives me 404 since i installed bugzilla3, no idea ? [15:52] im trying to hack the isolinux.cfg file on an installation disk to prevent the locale and keyboard dialog menus popping straight away.... any one any ideas how? [15:52] Halitech: ok, but i think it is samba... [15:53] ari5av, thank. and just apt-get remove package-name to uninstall the package right? [15:53] VaNNi: ues [15:53] jerkman, ok, then you need to sort out samba, not state that a printer is not supported by samba [15:53] VaNNi: or sudo apt-get remove --purge package-name [15:53] stew: not sure if that's the right place for it... if I go to system->prefs->keyboard->layouts and hit add, I get tons of keyboard layouts, and I don't see them in the place that you said [15:53] lstarnes: I don't even know what --purge does? [15:54] KushedVapors, ok, well that is possible.... I mean the partition marked "*" is the boot partition, you can still boot other OS's on other partitions, but the marked partition holds the actual boot data, for instance... I may have Vista, XP, Ubuntu and Fedora, all are bootable, however only one partition holds grum bootloader, and that is my first partition, /dev/sda1 and it is marked "*" [15:54] Halitech: i have only just found this issue out, [15:54] ari5av: oh, sorry, i don't know about that [15:54] lstarnes, what exactly -purge do? [15:54] ari5av: it removes configuration files [15:54] grub* [15:54] ari5av: and other things that are normally not removed when a package is removed [15:54] ah, cool [15:54] !cantiga [15:54] Sorry, I don't know anything about cantiga [15:54] how did you manage to screw up ur alsa? [15:54] lolz... [15:55] KushedVapors, more important to you , if clearly defining your problem.... because grub can be reinstalled/configured [15:55] I tried upgrading it to 1.0.20 [15:55] my friend have a latest lenovo just bought one month back.. having "intel canitga integrated graohics card" x is showing a garbage screen while booting the live cd [15:55] any idea? [15:55] "grub-probe: error: Cannot open '/boot/grub/device.map'" and "[: 494: =: unexpected operator" and "The file /media/root/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly." when doing "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/root /dev/sda" [15:55] lstarnes, ari5av, thanks [15:55] * saravanan also searchign in parellel ;-) [15:55] Any ideas? [15:55] saravanan: don't look at the screen while its booting ;) [15:55] idyllic: Followed this guide to the letter http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2009/05/09/upgrade-alsa-1020-on-ubuntu-jaunty-904/ [15:56] tj83_: now that confused me even more cuz my first linux install is in sda1 [15:56] cornet: its permanently garbage.., for say more than 5 minutes [15:56] tj83_: shouldnt that one be marked? [15:56] saravanan: oh humm [15:56] aha, looks like a ubuntu 9.04 issue with nautilus and samba [15:56] cornet: oh btw x didn't give me any errors too [15:56] saravanan: if you are installing then you could use the alternate install cd [15:57] saravanan: I don't recall any issues with my X61 [15:57] KushedVapors, the only way for me help is to know what went wrong... what you the user did to attempt to remedy it and where you need to go, if you can answer me that, then i can probably help you. and yes "normally" sda1 is the boot but in some cases its not. like yours apparently [15:57] saravanan: althgouh come to think of it I might have used the alternate install cd [15:57] the tutorial went smoothly? try "sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart" [15:57] cornet: ic..hmm [15:57] tj83_: do you know much bout grub 2? [15:57] Someone help me, please. :< [15:58] tj83_: well dont wanna waste to much of your time cuz some1 else already pointed me into a direction of possible remedy. so ill try that solution and see if it works. [15:59] idyllic: Still nothing.. when i cat /proc/asound/version i get no such dir === digilink_ is now known as digilink === miguel is now known as Guest51247 [16:00] ari5av: keyboard layouts in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols i think [16:00] KushedVapors, no, not grub2 [16:00] KushedVapors, i hear 2 is completely different animal [16:00] hey.. anyone who can help me format, and partition a old hdd wich i added just for 5 min ago? [16:00] tj83_: no just wonderin if it could help if i upgraded [16:01] KushedVapors, no need for it. [16:01] buch: are you on the live cd now? [16:01] tj83_: yea saw it had some improvements [16:01] !webcam [16:01] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [16:01] hello, I'm running ubuntu from a harddisk that has some allocated space, can I create a new partition there while running ubuntu from the same disk ?

[16:01] !grub | KushedVapors [16:01] KushedVapors: 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 [16:01] kj23: Nope [16:01] KushedVapors, that applies to more than after a windows install, it applies to everything , and will help you in re-configuring grub [16:01] buch: are you on windows? [16:02] I have 8 ubuntu desktops in the office, and 1 ubuntu-server (works as our cups, samba, ftp, httpd-test-server (with mysqld).

[16:02] kj23: im on the preinstalled HDD with ubuntu on it [16:02] tj83_: already saw that after a different debacle with stupid vista and its partitioning "security" [16:03] how about go into the alsa folder that u compile and install, then uninstall it? then reinstall the package from ubuntu repo? [16:03] buch: and you want to format a seperate hdd? [16:03] idyllic: I can try [16:03] is it possible to create a new partition on unallocated space while on the same disk the OS is running ?

[16:05] no no [16:05] ari5av: ok, it works with the ML-1640 driver!! [16:05] bye [16:06] legend2440: correct, but then the keymap folder's got the list of what's in the layouts, and keycodes deal with it on a more hardware level, I'll have to write some patches for it :D [16:06] go into the dir, then "sudo make uninstall" [16:06] ok [16:06] jerkman: you got it to print a test page?

Was ur install smooth without error? cos if it installed properly, you should be able to run make uninstall [16:10] ari5av: it has a linux driver [16:10] jerkman: hp printers have tonnes of support [16:11] hey ActionParsnip, I'm still having trouble installing/restoring grub [16:11] idyllic: Yeah it went smoothly I dont understand [16:11] ActionParsnip: Hmm.

I've set it as "dhcp automatic" so i don't need to setup it [16:16] miguelonnnn, if yours is a cable modem does that require a username or password kinda thing [16:16] miguelonnnn: how does the modem connect to your PC? [16:16] Automatic DHCP cant help out if its a DSL [16:16] first time i plugged it it tried to connect (the 2 blue ghosts flying in circle), but then the red X [16:17] ActionParsnip any idea on setting up internet Data card [16:17] i don't require no user nor pass, and the modem connects by ethernet [16:17] * MrStein has DSL, DHCP works just fine [16:17] pshr_: no idea, thats why i didnt reply [16:17] k Achim_P [16:17] Does anyone know how to instal custom roms to a windows mobile device from Linux (preferably without use of vmware) [16:17] k ActionParsnip [16:18] Right, I MD5ed it, it's complete.

[17:12] beefcaked: u dont have the key to verify integrity of your repository [17:12] Jake__: best is to use 4-5 GB swap, since it will allow hibernation, and linux barely uses swap with 4GB of RAM [17:12] Jake__: do you want to use hibernation?

[17:16] Jake__: on 23GB here, a bit problematic if you have EVERYTHING on it [17:16] moustafaza: if you can't get root now, you'll need to reboot and select "rescue mode" [17:16] <{[Aaron]}> how can I install Ubuntu on a dedicated hard drive partition without using a CD/USB stick, can I do it through mouting the file on a virtual drive (such as Daemons)?

I restored grub so now I can get back into Ubuntu, but now the link to Windows in grub isn't working. How do I fix this? [17:31] Beefcaked:Yeah, it's just lowering a slider, not necessarily volume [17:31] e370: have a look if it is executable, elsewhere type chmod +x your-program.run first [17:31] !grub | Heather [17:31] frogbrains: so how do i really make it lower the volume, inc and mute?] [17:31] Heather: 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 [17:31] Beefcaked:To change the slider it controls, right click the volume icon in the top panel, click "Preferences", select the right sound device, the click "Master" in the list below. [17:32] That should fix it. [17:32] iceroot: Thanks, but I've already read through that and it didn't solve my issue in a way I could understand. [17:32] btw, let me just say how much I hate being given links rather than actual help [17:32] beefcaked:I can't tell you which is the right sound device, they differ with each computer.

But how the hell can i set options (like extended desktop, beamer-resolution, etc.) now? as said, xrandr shows nothing but my internal display [17:35] Heather: look where windows is (like sda1 or sdb2) then correct the settings at (hd0,1) the first number is the letter. sda a=0 sdb b=1, the second number is the number from sda1 1=0 sda2 =1 so for e.g. sdb1 is hd(1,0) [17:35] You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.

[18:07] anna1: if you've just installed ubuntu, the simplest solution would be to reinstall, and select manual partitioning [18:07] tj83_, technically the program is called Avidemux, but the package you want to install is "avidemux-gtk" or "avidemux-kde". [18:07] sorry, I just pasted [18:07] anna1: then create a small (say, 1 GB) partition for /boot in addition to a big partition for everything else [18:08] rediff is possible on obuntu????????/ [18:08] anna1: also make sure that the small one is the first partition (and is therefore near the beginning of the disk) [18:08] torn, many thanks got it installed and i have found the settings.... great... perfect. [18:08] I must say... 2 lines are NOT flooding. I am a chanop [18:08] grawity, ok, so you don't have to sign in and give your password when you log on again? [18:08] mgedmin: I thought some 256 MB is enough for /boot [18:08] not here though [18:08] vincent_: You do [18:08] tj83_, have fun playing around with it! I haven't delved too much into either program. I used Avidemux a few times to convert some videos, but aside from that, I don't play with video files very often. [18:09] vincent_: it will log you off, just won't save your session [18:09] Hello All, I was wondering if any one in the room was running ubuntu 9.04 and ati graphics cards? I am currently running 8.10 because the support wasnt there for 9.04 and was wondering if it has improved as of the late? [18:09] gronlund: I think you want the libalsa-dev package (or maybe libalsaN-dev, where N is a number) [18:09] torn: when i cancel the connection prompt for the wireless key, my access point disappears from the access point list available - help? [18:09] Quasar1048: can you pastebin the output of apt-cache policy libasound2-dev [18:09] grawity: true; each kernel is under 15 megs, and there won't be that many of them [18:10] vincent_: The shutdown process will stop 'gdm', which will, by killing the Xserver, forcefully and automatically log you out. [18:10] mgedmin: thanks [18:10] hmm, i thought about it and i think reinstallation sounds best. [18:10] vincent_: The "logged in users" information is stored in RAM; which is obviously only alive when the PC is on. [18:10] at the moment i have on 998GB partition [18:10] how should i partition my drive? [18:10] bastidraZor: how do I find it? [18:11] Quasar1048: find what? [18:11] oh wait.. think I know... [18:11] cache policy [18:11] new_to_linux, so you said you installed the Windows drivers for your USB adapter via ndiswrapper? [18:11] there's no real reason for running multiple partitions as a home user unless you run raid/multiple os etc [18:11] !libalsa [18:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about libalsa [18:11] !libalsa-dev [18:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about libalsa-dev [18:11] sal all [18:11] Quasar1048: type that command... apt-cache policy libasound2-dev .. in terminal [18:12] hi guys [18:12] how would i launch an app on another computer using ssh? [18:12] when i do smbldap-passwd, i get the following error message: erreur LDAP: Can't contact slave ldap server (IO::Socket::INET: connect: Connection refused). Can someone help me ? [18:12] exit [18:12] W unable to locate package libsound2-dev [18:12] I am about to install ubuntu now but on start up |I want it to ask me vista or ubuntu how do I arrange that ? [18:12] harjot: ssh in and start it, ssh in with -X flag to enable x forwarding for remote gui [18:12] harjot: a CLI app or a GUI app? [18:12] I meant I dont want them to mix ... [18:12] ks [18:12] Quasar1048: check your spelling. [18:12] llutz and grawity, grawity told me a while ago you stay logged on while the computer is off... [18:12] needs x server [18:12] harjot: ssh user@host command [18:13] Anarchy7: The installer will install the Grub bootloader which does that, theres nothing you need to do to configure it during the install [18:13] ssh -x user@host [18:13] then commands? [18:13] oh.. its liba.. not lib.. lol [18:13] llutz and grawity, now you tell me you stay logged on? what is it now? [18:13] i can do ssh@host but not launch apps [18:13] harjot: then as acicula said - but ssh -X (not -x) [18:13] Pici thanks a lot [18:13] ok thanks [18:13] vincent_: you misread me [18:14] bastidraZor: whats that site to past stuff on here? [18:14] paste... something> [18:14] ?* [18:14] !paste | Quasar1048 [18:14] Quasar1048: 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 [18:14] harjot: ssh -X user@host command [18:14] vincent_: I think you should rephrase your question. Are you referring to hibernating the computer or something else? [18:14] pastebin! There we go... [18:14] ok ty [18:14] torn: yes, there were two drivers to install (according to the forums) - they show as installed in ndisgtk, although only one of them is showing 'Hardware present'. when i start ndisgtk, an error always comes up saying 'Unable to check if hardware is present'. in the network list, there are a bunch of other access points shown, but not my home one (which has the strongest signal strength), and was previously set to a [18:14] utomatically connect, but I have removed that now too to try get things working [18:15] bastidraZor: http://pastebin.com/m63c27d9b [18:15] I am pretty sure I have that repo enabled... [18:15] let me check.. [18:15] Pici, someone told me you can stay logged in while turning your computer off [18:15] any clues??: kernel: vmap allocation failed [18:15] vincent_: If you hibernate your computer, then the contents of ram are stored on the harddrive. [18:16] Pici: shut down !=suspend/sleep [18:16] Quasar1048: what version of libasound2-dev is it wanting to install but can't? [18:16] llutz: I think some of these terms are being used interchangably accidentally here. [18:16] Okay.. it looks my repo has no key... [18:17] Pici, logged in users are stored in RAM, what else? [18:17] well... that could be problem lol [18:17] a lot.. [18:17] bastidraZor: I dont know... thats all it says [18:17] Hey everyone, How do I mount a hard disk thru a live dvd? [18:17] vincent_: What else what? [18:18] jalonso: when you boot into a live ubuntu session, go to the places menu and select the partition you want to mount; they're all listed there (IIRC) [18:19] right now Im requesting a ky for that repo... [18:19] Hi all, how can i mount a device so that all users can read/write it? I tried mount -o rw,user but that way I cannot add new files to the disk [18:19] didn't work yesterday though... [18:19] can i add in manually? [18:19] it* [18:19] Trijntje: what filesystem? [18:19] mgedmin: ok, I'll confess, I'm actually using a slackware dvd so all I have is command prompt [18:19] failed... [18:20] jalonso: type man mount [18:20] jalonso: If you aren't running Ubuntu then we cannot help you, ask in their support channel. [18:21] Pici: ok [18:21] I need this repo: http://mx.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages [18:21] llutz: ext2, luks encrypted [18:21] thank you for all the help [18:21] where do I get a key for it? [18:21] Trijntje: use chown/chmod [18:21] I am having a problem with my Atheros WPN111 USB wireless network adaptor (using the Windows driver wrapped by ndiswrapper) - it was working fine, except that it would loose the ndiswrapper settings after each boot. so I played with some settings (as suggested on a few forums), but now when i try to connect to my home access point (using a WPA encryption key), it keeps asking me for the key every couple of minutes, a [18:21] nd never manages to establish a connection. any suggestions please?? [18:21] torn: the adaptor was working before actually (just using Gnome Network Manager), but then I read something about wicd, so I tried installing that. unfortunately, that messed up my wired connection, so i uninstalled wicd and went back to gnome, but it hasn't been the same since ... [18:22] Quasar1048: This seems to be an official Ubuntu main repository mirror. So the PGP key should be already included with Ubuntu. [18:22] new_to_linux: is your key correct, does it work without encryption/wep? [18:22] llutz: yes, that works, but i am hoping there is a way to mount it properly so i dont have to do that every time i use the disk [18:23] Trijntje: you won't need to do it everytime if you've done it right once. permissions will be stored in the filesystem [18:23] #slackware [18:23] acicula - the key is correct. i think that maybe it might have something to do with when i installed wicd, and then uninstalled it (cos it killed my wired connection) and went back to gnome network manager [18:23] grawity: I dont see that repo.. I have two for jaunty, but neither of them are that one.. [18:24] llutz: ah ok, will that also work when i plug the disk in another pc with different users? [18:24] what are my chances of successfully installing xubuntu on an old 600 mhz powerpc? [18:24] Trijntje: no [18:24] Trijntje: it will work for users with the same UID [18:24] pepperphd, will prolly work... but slow as molasses [18:24] pepperphd: how much ram? [18:25] i ran ubuntu 8.04 on an old 700mhz PII pepperphd [18:25] tj83_ the thing is already slow, i just want a little box to mess with [18:25] thiebaude, 512mb [18:25] pepperphd, i suggest something full CLI like ubuntu server or something like that. [18:25] llutz: so if they both have UID=1000 or so the changes will be permanent? [18:25] yes [18:26] pepperphd: there are some older versions of ubuntu that run on powerpc arch, mind you these are a bit older [18:26] pepperphd: same ram as I, but i have 1gz processor [18:26] acicula: are there not still community supported builds of ubuntu on powerpc ? [18:26] linxeh: i dont know, seems likely :) [18:26] acicula: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/jaunty/release/ [18:27] llutz: thanks a lot, I spent a lot of time trying to figure out why I couldnt mount it properly. Is this bug or a feature, because I was expecting it to behave as a normal filesystem when you decrypt it. [18:27] seems there are builds :) [18:27] halloo [18:27] linxeh: heh cool [18:28] Trijntje: i have no clue about encrypted fs [18:28] xss [18:28] http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e242/Chromos1048/Screenshot-SoftwareSources.pnggrawity: [18:28] those are all my repos [18:29] grawity === nicholas is now known as Guest93202 [18:29] http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e242/Chromos1048/Screenshot-SoftwareSources.png [18:29] I messed that up, sorry. [18:29] Good day to you all. [18:29] llutz: i'm sorry, is this the default behavior for ext2 filesystems? because i have no such problem with a fat usb stick [18:29] I dont see the repo its talking about... so how do I get the key for it? [18:30] Trijntje: its default for unix-filesystems [18:30] acicula - the key is correct. i think that maybe it might have something to do with when i installed wicd, and then uninstalled it (cos it killed my wired connection) and went back to gnome network manager [18:30] Quasar1048: it is unwise to mix distro versions.. [18:30] Trijntje: on usb and other external you mostly have vfat/ntfs, which work different [18:30] new_to_linux: dunno then [18:30] Do we agree it's week 36? When I run "date", I get: Thu Sep 3 19:27:20 CEST 2009, but "date +%W" I get 35 ?!? [18:31] Trijntje: you cannot use unix-permissions on vfat/ntfs, that's why they have special mount-options [18:31] Guest93202: me 2 [18:31] acicula, but, that's wierd? [18:31] llutz: I see, thank you very much, you've explained a lot to me in a short time. [18:31] Quasar1048: The one you want is an _official_ repo [18:31] Guest93202: %W week number of year, with Monday as first day of week (00..53) [18:31] Guest93202: dunno, maybe it counts from 0-51 [18:31] Quasar1048: And in your screenshot it's the "Third-party" tab. [18:31] Guest93202: read the manpage for date [18:31] Oh, so week 1 is mapped to 0, and so forth [18:32] Quasar1048: The one you want goes in 'Ubuntu software' [18:32] No offence to the author of date, but that's stupid? [18:32] Guest93202: no, it's in fact not that, look at the man page [18:32] (i just checked :) [18:32] Hi. I want to install VLC in a specific dir, but I can only find the aptitude way of doing this - is it possible to specify path using aptitude ? [18:32] acicula, I've already read it, but I couldn't figure it out, so I asked here. [18:32] hi there :) is there any way that i can display (e.g. by mount --bind or some other way) the contents of a folder A and folder B at the same time in folder C, so I enter directory C and see in there the content of A and B merged? [18:33] wonder why its not working then> [18:33] ?* [18:33] Guest93202: then why the surprise at my quote from the manpage ? [18:33] funkmaster: unionfs/aufs should do that === Nikelandjelo1 is now known as Nikelandjelo [18:34] I never understood why this stuff works so easily for everyone else... [18:34] linxeh, because I was just told that it's not the case, that date mapes week 1 as 0, 2 as 1 and so forth? [18:34] maps* [18:34] llutz: ok googling it right now :) [18:34] this stuff just needs to get more organized, its all a disaster [18:34] Guest93202: its from 00-53, with monday as the first day of the week. [18:35] ten different tutorials to do the same thing- each one works for a different person... shouldnt be like that [18:35] so it does.. [18:35] Quasar1048: Can you pastebin the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list using http://paste.ubuntu.com please? [18:35] Quasar1048: use help.ubuntu.com as your documentation [18:35] Pici: yeah, give me a moment [18:35] Guest93202: the manpage gives several options for month of year. I think you chose the wrong one. [18:35] Does anyone here use Ubuntu/Jaunty Firefox and have issues with sites like Stckam - I can't get the chat to work === giuppy_ is now known as giuppy === Zelfje2 is now known as Zelfje [18:36] I am trying to install apt-get install ubuntu-desktop on ubuntu server and its throwing me dependancies error. Any ideas what could be wrong? [18:36] Pici: http://pastebin.com/m7ecddb2e [18:37] hey! what package is the one responsible for the keyboard models/layouts [18:37] I'm filing a bug and need to know the package [18:37] can i have pure-ftpd automatically give read/write permissions to newly created folders or directories [18:37] linxeh, thanks, I see it now. [18:37] hi please will you help me? i've got an usb modem and i need to configure it [18:37] wild_oscar: it's called xkeyboard-config upstream; not sure if ubuntu has the same package name [18:37] wild_oscar: console-setup [18:38] zvonkorp: Look for 'umask' in its config. [18:38] could you help me a little? [18:38] thank you grawity [18:38] miguelonnnn: We probably could, but you haven't explained your problem yet. [18:38] hehe grawity eheh i just asked [18:38] now, to figure out why hdmi audio isnt working. grr! [18:38] nice then , let's start [18:38] Can anyone here help me fix something with the user groups? [18:39] miguelonnnn, i need the same thing [18:39] in the walkthrough i found, it says ubuntu should recognise my usb modem as a cdrom [18:39] FluxD: the point is: X is not supported on server, so there will be missing libraries, but feel free to !pastebin (don't just paste) the output of your apt-get install [18:39] its a reliance USB ADM [18:39] mgedmin: where should I file the issue then? (the issue being that my keyboard model is not in the list) ? [18:39] well let's do it together pshr_ [18:39] anyone know how to capture events of ubuntu (without GUI) for example the end of the event automount the cdrom? I'm trying to develop a service of ubuntu to update some systems via cdrom [18:39] guntbert, thanks let me do that now [18:39] miguelonnnn: if its 3G, I run the same thing... [18:39] Contents missing when ppt opened in OO, how we can prevent it? [18:39] hi [18:39] boithia!!!!pliss [18:39] i have tried it but the modem wont get detected atlast [18:39] :( [18:39] wild_oscar: *shrug* models don't mean much these days [18:39] Quasar1048: Plese run: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and replace the contents with http://pastebin.com/m27ec0403 [18:40] but my usb doesn't get recongised as cdrom, i don't know if it simply doesn't get mount, or it isn't recognised at all. My /media/has cdrom and cdrom 0 [18:40] does that mean it's recognised? [18:40] if you mean "model" as in "pc 104/105-key keyboard" [18:40] try lsusb [18:40] in command line miguelonnnn [18:40] see if your device is listed [18:40] mgedmin: yeah, it's just that mine has this nice scroll wheel...that doesn't work [18:40] mgedmin: model as in "logitech something" or mircosoft 600 [18:40] danielgianni: If the CDs have a proper repository on them, you can use apt-cdrom to add it to the repos, after that, just update/upgrade. Or are you looking to automate it further? [18:41] guntbert, http://pastebin.ca/1552832 [18:41] don't know if having the model there makes any difference though [18:41] Contents missing when ppt opened in OO, how we can prevent it? [18:41] Does anyone have issues using the chat on stickam.com I can't get it to work. What am I missing? I have Flash installed and the Video works but the chat [18:41] but i duno if it's listed [18:41] pshr_ [18:41] i do ls /media [18:41] miguelonnnn, the model of your USB modem ? [18:41] and get cdrom and cdrom0, [18:41] Quasar1048: Your repositories were messed up, the pastebinned link I shared should fix everything. Just run your normal update procedure and you should be all set. [18:42] do I leave the hashes? [18:42] miguelonnnn, try ls /dev/ to find the list of devices not ls /media, it gives only mounted devices [18:42] wild_oscar: is just your scrollwheel not working? [18:42] huawei, but in the howto i'm following it says it should be recognised as cdrom, so i don't know if it is or not [18:42] it says something about removign two lines before adding more [18:42] ? [18:42] FluxD: in terminal try sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop aptitude often offers dependency solutions when apt-get doesnt [18:42] i could just unplug the usb and make a ls /media again, to see if cdrom is still there, but i'm afraid that will be bad to my computer [18:42] miguelonnnn, short and sweet here is the crux these are the things that might prove use ful [18:43] you would need gnome-ppp [18:43] !gnome-ppp [18:43] Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-ppp [18:43] !wvdial [18:43] Sorry, I don't know anything about wvdial [18:43] Trijntje: seems so; and also some of the hotkeys on the top don't do what they're supposed to and don't know how to change it [18:43] legend2440, I did try that, It told me it was going to downgrade apt and some other utlities [18:43] Trijntje: why? [18:43] well miguelonnnn wvdial is another thing that you need to configure it right [18:43] wild_oscar: type this in a terminal: xev|grep button [18:43] miguelonnnn: what works on mine, is booting with the modem in, and runnign the command "sudo modprobe option" [18:43] i will direct you the URL of the settings thing hold on [18:43] and then waiting a few minutes [18:43] Im using 3G now [18:44] miguelonnnn, might be useful http://www.techtalkz.com/open-source-linux/515427-how-setup-configure-reliance-datacard-usb-internet-ubuntu-linux.html [18:44] wild_oscar: that way you can see if there is an effect when you use those buttons, and possibly assign these buttons to some events [18:44] thanks [18:44] miguelonnnn, its most likely to be almost the same see in the comments section of the same [18:44] np [18:44] quasar i read about that , i may try [18:44] i'm also a little concerned of fstab [18:44] legend2440, http://pastebin.ca/1552836 [18:44] FluxD: well - the important part seems to be "This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation ", you *could* try to get another GUI going, which is not as heavy as gnome [18:44] because i installed from usb, and i was supposed to edit fstab but i didn't [18:44] Trijntje: is that for keyboard buttons? [18:45] guntbert, same with kubuntu [18:45] Pici: the repos in gedit atre spread out... [18:45] where should I post it? [18:45] could i pastebin my fstab and you tlel me if it's right? [18:45] it has comments, then a repo.. comment, then a repo... [18:45] it's just 3 lines please [18:45] miguelonnnn, addressing who ? [18:45] I dont wann mess it up, but I did copy it... [18:45] FluxD: of course, thats is just as heavy [18:45] wild_oscar: no, for mouse buttons, you have to grep for buttons because xev also registers mousemovement etc, [18:45] i don't understand pshr- ;S [18:45] guntbert, what do you suggest? [18:45] Hi. Is there a programm like sort with an additional option to ignore the first line of a file? [18:45] guntbert, and why would downgrade apt? [18:46] it* [18:46] can i pastebin my fstab and you look at it please? it's just 3 lines [18:46] w8 just a minut eplease [18:46] i copyied some files from another computer's /var/cache/apt/archives to mine , now i should just run aptitude update to inform my system to know about these updates , right ? [18:46] miguelonnnn, just pastebin it and paste it here [18:46] Trijntje: oh, I was referring to my keyboard. it has a scroll wheel (yeah!) [18:47] hi guys [18:47] wild_oscar: ehm, then try it without the grep, just use xev and see if you can identify the scroll event [18:47] i d like to install virtualbox... should i add something to my sources.list? [18:47] Trijntje: http://images.google.pt/imgres?imgurl=http://www.chip7.pt/fotos/produtos/TECRATO0039_g.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.chip7.pt/catalogo/detalhes_produto.php%3Fid%3D18667&usg=__NQ2B0SK0eQNpplaoiEz9G_pGy8M=&h=200&w=200&sz=7&hl=pt-PT&start=4&um=1&tbnid=g2sfPwcgPiCkVM:&tbnh=104&tbnw=104&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbtc%2B8190urf%26hl%3Dpt-PT%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dcom.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial%26sa%3DN%26um%3D1 [18:47] Pici: this is what it look like:http://pastebin.com/m5577c6d1 [18:48] where do I put your list at? A bit confusing... [18:48] Trijntje: nah, doesn't record anything [18:48] i d also like to install nice themes; but not all work. [18:48] look please, http://pastebin.org/14658 [18:48] tell me if that fstab is right [18:49] [18:49] i installed from usb [18:49] i tried to search some packages, like texlive, but not there neither [18:49] i m missing something, can t figure out what... [18:49] miguelonnnn, if you manage to get your usbmodem working can you leave me PM on the same pleasee [18:49] wild_oscar: have you tried googling your keyboard with the word ubuntu? [18:49] FluxD: I don't know about downgrade .., suggestion 1) stay with desktop, 2) if you insist on desktop keep in mind that ubuntu-desktop is only a "meta package" which has only a lot of dependencies, you *could* try to install some packages from that list - and leave the others, but I do not recommend it, you will get no support if anything goes wrong [18:50] yweah pshr_ ofcourse [18:50] thank you.. [18:50] !downgrade | FluxD guntbert [18:50] FluxD guntbert: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. [18:50] how do i mount an .iso when i don't have a physical cdrom attached at the moment? [18:50] * should read 2) in you insist on server + desktop [18:50] yrp ! [18:50] guntbert, from what I saw it had something to do with python 2.5 vs python 2.6 any ideas? [18:50] !iso | billybigrigger [18:50] billybigrigger: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. [18:50] hi [18:50] sebsebseb: I beg your pardon? [18:50] billybigrigger: mount -o loop file.iso /mnt/ [18:50] Trijntje: yeah, not too lucky, seems to be a very underground keyboard [18:51] i keep getting mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist [18:51] guntbert: nevermind [18:51] FluxD: What version of Ubuntu is this? [18:51] wild_oscar: you should file a bug about keys/scroll wheels not working on your keyboard, but I'm not sure against which package [18:51] no one to enlighten me about installing texlive and virtualbox? [18:51] why is it not available...? [18:51] pepito: virtualbox and texlive are, uh, both available [18:51] FluxD: no, sorry (and I will not try that on my ubuntu server :-)) [18:52] pepito: how are you determining it is not? [18:52] pepito: virtualbox is available, possibly you have to activate a repository [18:52] Flannel, I have ubuntu server 9.04 installed and I am trying to do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [18:52] !info virtualbox | pepito [18:52] pepito: Package virtualbox does not exist in jaunty [18:52] billybigrigger: What exact command are you using?

[18:53] !vbox | pepito [18:53] pepito: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [18:53] thanks guys [18:53] grawity, dunno, trying to pass -t udf [18:53] amee2k: if someone knows the answer, sure... [18:53] Flannel, default install [18:53] wild_oscar: That too bad.. Try to find out where you could file a bugreport [18:53] hm... then here we go: if i modify my unusual_devs.h, would it be sufficient if i only recompiled the usb-storage module? [18:53] add/remove programs can t find it... [18:53] Is there a way to add a '-' at the first line and first position of a file. With awk or sed? [18:53] Trijntje: ok, cheers. by the way, if xev records an event, how can I map it to an action? [18:53] Quasar1048: Replace the contents of your current sources.list file with what I provided [18:54] christoph__: easy enough with sed, sure [18:54] pepito, get it from here http://virtualbox.org [18:54] amee2k: maybe; I'm not familiar with unusual_devs.h [18:54] because on gnome's keyboard shortcuts, when I assign a button it assigns to Ctl+Alt+C [18:54] FluxD: Alright, well the first thing you need to do is fix those broken packages. Some of the dependency issues indicate that you have something funky with your repos. Can you please pastebin the output of sudo apt-get update? [18:54] pepito: use synaptic or apt-get/aptitude [18:54] amee2k: are you trying to add support for an unusual USB 3G dongle or something? [18:54] its a file that includes rather unaesthetic device specific hacks [18:54] but then when I click the button it doesn't do the assigned action (but ctl-alt+c on the keyboard does!) [18:54] Thx jrib, i will man :D [18:55] Pici: I did... didnt fix it [18:55] in synaptic; nothing under VBOX neither virtualb [18:55] wild_oscar: emm, there is a program to do that i believe, you should google. I for one have compiz 'rotate cube' to some extra buttons on my mouse, just by typing in "Button7" as the binding [18:55] FluxD: please don't recommend third party sources as first step, when there are repos available [18:55] Quasar1048: Please run sudo apt-get update and then try again [18:55] still reports broken packages when I try to install kdelibs5-dev [18:55] mgedmin: yeah, for some reason it includes an entry for my umts stick that i strongly suspect interferes with my attempts to make it work [18:55] guntbert, okay sorry [18:55] I did that... twice [18:55] the update [18:55] christoph__: any basic sed tutorial will show you how. Just learn how to match particular lines and what the "^" pattern means [18:55] Quasar1048: And did you get an error or not? [18:55] http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads [18:55] amee2k: the question is: which files #include unusual_devs.h? if it's only those .c files that are used for usb-storage.ko, then sure, rebuilding it will be sufficient [18:55] ok nice ther [18:55] amee2k: often you can get those to work without patching kernel modules [18:55] ppa.launch pad is missing key [18:55] !info virtualbox-OSE [18:55] virtualbox-ose (source: virtualbox-ose): x86 virtualization solution - binaries.

[18:56] i m getting the virtualbox .deb from their website [18:56] but weird i can t find them in synaptic [18:56] Pici: http://pastebin.com/m5bc7b41d [18:57] thats the only error [18:57] pepito: bad idea [18:57] mgedmin: yeah, it presents me with a fake mass storage device that i need to eject. usb_modeswitch fails for some reason, and i can't eject it like a usual mass storage device because the entry in unusual devs causes that device to get rejected [18:57] neither under Add/remove programs [18:57] amee2k: e.g. the udev-extras package has modem-modeswitch [18:57] I am having a problem with my Atheros WPN111 USB wireless network adaptor (using the Windows driver wrapped by ndiswrapper) - it was working fine, except that it would loose the ndiswrapper settings after each boot. so I played with some settings (as suggested on a few forums), but now when i try to connect to my home access point (using a WPA encryption key), it keeps asking me for the key every couple of minutes, a [18:57] nd never manages to establish a connection. any suggestions please?? [18:57] Spike1506: reinstall? [18:57] Quasar1048: One moment, my browser closed. [18:57] I d also like to get TEXLIVE package... is it there? [18:57] Trijntje, tried that, no luck [18:57] mgedmin: interresting point. i'll try that one [18:57] pepito: do you need usb support in the virtual machines? [18:57] will try again though [18:58] Spike1506: edit the main menu, maybe it is there but selected not to show? [18:58] hi guys when installing ubuntu it said formatting partititions .. and I cancelled immediately [18:58] yes [18:58] I would like everything to staz the same like my pictures and music [18:58] amee2k: maybe it'll start working just by installing udev-extras? if not, it may be useful to report a bug with USB device ids, so that out-of-the-box support could be added in the future [18:58] Anarchy7: ok [18:58] Anarchy7, make a back up [18:58] Anarchy7: guided install? manual install? what did you try and do?

[18:59] guntbert: i don t get why i can t find such packages in synaptic [18:59] Anarchy7: usually the installer presents choices, like "resize existing partition and install ubuntu alongside" and "wipe everything and install just ubuntu"; I don't recall which one is the default [18:59] FluxD: alright, please pastebin the output of the following: apt-cache policy gcc-4.3 gcc-4.3-base python update-manager firefox-3.0 libgtk2.0-0 [19:00] (and no, i didn't just **** my password into the public support chan :X ) [19:00] mgedmin it didnt ask me anything like that [19:00] how to install glibc-solibs ? [19:00] guntbert: texlive, virtualbox [19:00] pepito: I suggest you try the open source version first - to get your feet wet - and later you install the closed source version (with USB support) - would that be ok for you?

[19:01] Pici: Shorter, and more reliable when the Ubuntu keyserver dies again. [19:01] guntbert: the problem is another one [19:01] Welshy-Rob: mencoder, and probably ffmpeg [19:01] Trijntje, and then? [19:01] Anarchy7: What do you use Windows for? [19:01] using the search method in ubuntu i just get almost NOTHING [19:01] grawity: thanks [19:01] * MenZa games on Windows. [19:01] pepito: what is the real problem then?

[19:03] no plugins no texlive, no vbox no virtualb, this is not a normal behaviour... [19:03] Pici: http://pastebin.com/m61c4a849 [19:03] can t get what is wrong [19:03] i m new to this [19:03] mpeg or fly [19:03] mgedmin: it didn't magically start to work due to udev-utils. i keep having "[366737.470655] usb-storage: device ignored" in my syslog and modem-modeswitch tells me "no mass storage device found." [19:03] Trijntje, thanks, /usr/bin/ccsm was there [19:03] I get the feeling that all Im accomplish9ing here is messing thigns up worse... [19:03] isn t it supposed to work out of the box? [19:03] sounds like the two go hand in hand [19:03] seems to work now [19:03] ty [19:03] popey, mpeg or fly [19:03] FluxD: Alright, this is odd. Can you please pastebin your sources.list? (/etc/apt/sources.list) [19:03] pepito: did you add the extra repository? [19:03] Welshy-Rob: there is a program called winff in the repository, which may do it [19:03] MenZa: In my opinion Linux users should stop playing Windows games, unless they are also made for Linux, or at least work well under Wine, but this is off topic, so let's end it here [19:03] sebsebseb the thing is windows crashed something bad happened anyway .. I can open the computer with ubuntu live cd and browse pictures movies all is ok and I tried to install ubuntu cause I need an OS ... but it didnt ask me resize or anything like that it was just installing it anyway ... [19:03] amee2k: the first message is good (I think; if usb-storage claimed the device, you couldn't do anything with it); the second is not so good [19:03] pepito: please relax - you are jumping now - lets do one thing and then the next, shall we start with texlive? do you know what that is? [19:03] mgedmin: its ogv, not flash, that video [19:03] Spike1506: if you want you can edit your main menu to add it [19:03] sebsebseb: I'd like to continue discussing this.

[19:04] Trijntje: which one? [19:04] guntbert: ok sorry; [19:04] amee2k: there are multiple userspace apps for various kinds of modems, you may want to google for your specific model [19:04] how can i write latex in ubuntu 9.04? [19:04] Spike1506: ok, good luck with compiz [19:04] mgedmin my connection sucks to watch videos [19:04] mimis: use the texlive distribution [19:04] hello [19:04] guntbert: i d like to play some music (aac a52 and wma/m4a support) [19:04] is there a way to know the version of a module? [19:04] Flannel, http://pastebin.com/f216dd151 [19:04] Anarchy7: by default it doesn't format your windows partition, it resizes it down [19:04] amee2k: some of those require you to manually pass in the hex vendor and device IDs before they deign to issue the mode switch command [19:04] acsia: modinfo [19:05] ty Trijntje (till ati messes up again of course ;)) [19:05] popey but it was saying formatting partitions when installing ... [19:05] mimis: There's a *ton* of packages (list them all with apt-cache search texlive), but if you're lazy, just install texlive-full, which will install just about any package you'll ever need, pdflatex, latex, ps2pdf, dvips, etc. etc. [19:05] llutz cheers! [19:05] i guys i have a problem....some time ago i had configured an rsync rule to backup my mail account....now i recieve some strange mail from cron because i have unplugged the hard disk i used to backup the files....how to stop cron to mail me????? [19:05] mgedmin: /lib/udev/modem-modeswitch -v 19d2 -p 2000 -t option-zerocd << that is my command [19:05] Anarchy7: yes, formatting the _ubuntu_ partition, not the windows one [19:05] popey: then it's the totem (?) plugin that stopped working in my firefox; anyway I can watch that video in chromium [19:05] and on install options there wee 2 things to chose remove windows vista loading and 2nd was advanced I choosed the 1st one [19:05] you always wonder if it s quicker to google or irc commands [19:05] MenZa: these types of discussions go on, and on, and on, and on, and I have done it a few times before, and I just got a load of updates for karmic I should re boot really, so no thanks I am not joining off topic right now [19:05] pepito: ok, for that neither texlive nor virtualbox will be helpful - they are for totally different tasks [19:05] pepito: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox === queGrande is now known as miguelonnnnn [19:05] i think its in universe [19:05] also tried usb_modeswitch with no success. it just hangs in a select-ioctl loop [19:05] aw. [19:05] amee2k: ooh, zerocd, I think I had used a dongle like that [19:05] Anarchy7: the first one will resize windows down to make room for ubuntu, it doesnt format windows [19:05] sebsebseb, i just installed 9.10 [19:06] guntbert: Trijntje i know what they are for [19:06] i just can t find them [19:06] how should i add a repository? [19:06] thiebaude: ok [19:06] mgedmin: it is the only type it supports according to the man page [19:06] okay I am gonna take backup of pictures and try the first one thanks a lot guys [19:06] Heya. I've got an interesting problem. When I get to the graphical login, I enter my password and then the screen blanks for a second and goes right back to the graphical login screen (as if the x-server crashed and auto restarted). Any ideas? [19:06] pepito: system -> administration -> software sources [19:06] guntbert: it should be some kind of apt-get install gstreamer virtualbox texlive [19:06] Quasar1048: I need to deal with another issue here at work, That error isn't tough to fix, but I unforunately don't have time to help you out. Someone else here should be able to assist you, just explain the current issue you are having (once you get this working your update process should work fine) [19:06] backups are always good; you never know when a disk is going to die [19:06] pepito: lets try texlive together - ok? [19:06] mgedmin: wouldn't it be considerably easier for the average user to let the storage device with the useless drivers get detected as usual and allow the user to eject it as usual [19:07] amee2k: maybe, I dunno :/ [19:07] ok gunt [19:07] ok guntbert [19:07] i mean, i gather that is how they do it on the other system from redmond too, isn't it? [19:07] hi [19:07] I wantto add BUILD_CPPFLAGS += "-Wno-format-security -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE" [19:07] pepito: open a command line please [19:07] MenZa: ok i am installing the texlive-full [19:07] to local.conf but where is this file located? [19:08] amee2k: actually, no; it would be considerably easier for the average user if he/she could plug it in and it worked with no weird manual unmount steps required [19:08] guntbert: done [19:08] MenZa: will it appear in the applications menu? [19:08] amee2k: I'm surprised that usb-storage already knows about this device; this sounds like (part) of a solution [19:08] pepito: type "sudo apt-get install texlive" (without the quotes) [19:08] maybe the other part is missing [19:08] hi [19:08] I wantto add BUILD_CPPFLAGS += "-Wno-format-security -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE" [19:08] exot [19:08] to local.conf but where is this file located?

Thanks for the help though.. I'm sure I'll get this fixed, somehow I always manage... [19:09] !caps | FalconStream [19:09] FalconStream: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. [19:09] imo hacks that are so very specific don't belong into the kernel anyway unless they work around serious hardware bugs [19:09] FluxD: Alright. So, you don't have any problems with your sources, but you're not getting the newer versions of packages (gcc-4.3 is version 4.3.3-5ubuntu4, for instance) because... well, I don't know why. That half-and-half thing is what the problem is, although it shouldn't have gotten to this broken state by default (unless you forced or something, it just wouldn't update things that lead to a broken situation). I'd try changing your mirror, [19:09] Hi everyone.... I'm getting these green band that flickers on and off every 5-6 seconds at the very bottom of my laptop's LCD monitor.... only noticed it recently when I changed my theme in Ubuntu.... but the thing is, I also noticed it before GRUB even loads (at the ThinkPad/LenovoCare screen you get when you just turn on the system).... it's still under warranty, so should I take i in? [19:09] Hi! How can I find out what class-name an application have? [19:09] Ok sorry [19:10] but please help me [19:10] Flannel, all of them? [19:10] FalconStream: you need to install the PyGtk library that gDesklets wants [19:10] popey, i cant find winff anywhere [19:10] I'll back later... [19:10] ok this is working [19:10] need to log this chat though... [19:10] !Pygtk [19:10] Sorry, I don't know anything about Pygtk [19:10] FluxD: Yeah, change from ovh to another mirror: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors [19:10] anyone? [19:10] FalconStream: if you used Ubuntu's packaging tools (apt-get, or Synaptic) to install gdesklets, all the libraries would have been automatically installed for you [19:10] Welshy-Rob: my bad, they have a website, where you can get it [19:10] but why is ot not in the software GUI? [19:10] popey, kk === grack is now known as Zathara [19:11] FluxD: the rest of my last: I'd try changing your mirror, seeing if that helps it recognize that there's -updates available. Have you done anything with apt_preferences by any chance? pinning or whatnot? [19:11] pepito: the important part was "sudo" - you need root rights for installation/removal [19:11] I install it from synaptic [19:11] FalconStream: if you want a newer version of gdesklets than the one available in Ubuntu repositories, I'd suggest installing Ubuntu's version anyway, just so that you'd get all the libraries you need [19:11] http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/Gcc_issues_in_Intrepid_and_later [19:11] I use ubuntu hardy [19:11] FalconStream: in that case it's a bug! report it please [19:11] I am trying to apply these [19:11] Flannel, this was a default install then all I did was apt-get update and apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, nothing else [19:11] mgedmin: the file gets included in drivers/usb/storage in files usb.c and libusual.c... how do i figure out what i need to recompile? [19:11] pepito: it certainly is, but lets move on to virtualbox [19:11] Flannel, oops apt-get upgrade too [19:12] so at the 3rd line it says add these to local.conf [19:12] amee2k: good question; but since both are inside 'usb/storage', I guess rebuilding that dir ought to be sufficient [19:12] ok mgedmin, thanks [19:12] I couldnt locate it [19:12] To anybody: If your computer would boot up to the login screen, but every time you entered the password, the screen blanked and brought you right back to the login screen (as if the xserver crashed and restarted itself), where would you start? [19:12] hm... good point. i've removed the entry for my device. how do i rebuild a specific module the ubuntu way? [19:12] FluxD: Yeah, it shouldn't have gotten into this state, I don't know what the deal is. If it's a fresh install, you might consider reinstalling. Why not just install the desktop instead of the server? (if you just installed it) [19:12] FalconStream: you could try installing python-gtk2 and trying to run gdesklets again; that _should_ fix the import error you're seeing [19:12] squarebottle, were you updating? [19:12] unless the breakage is with the python-gtk2 package rather than the gdesklets package [19:13] guntbert: when i click on software Add it asks me for the sudo part [19:13] but ok let s get to vbox [19:13] pepito: please go to system/adminstration/software sources === darrin is now known as Guest18783 [19:13] pepito: close Add/remove [19:13] Flannel, the latest desktop version they have is 8.04 lts, for some reason its always slow, so as I had always done, I install latest ubuntu server and then do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [19:13] thiebaude: The computer had not been updated in a long time.

[19:24] guntbert done [19:24] krishnaprasad: unless it is a data only partition, and no /home isn't one of those [19:24] krishnaprasad: since the .folders for example [19:24] http://www.pastebin.ca/1552903 what dvd burner i have [19:24] i am not do not want it to be a shared folder [19:24] guntbert: i m cheking for the best server [19:25] actuall i want to install oracle db there [19:25] I have an external HDD.

I'm trying to encrypt some text in my text editor with the Seahorse plugin but it isn't working (Will give more details later). Is there anyone that can help me? [19:26] squarebottle: your login session crashes for some reason [19:26] mgedmin: Yes. [19:26] squarebottle: you can log in into a text console and read ~/.xsession-errors to get a clue [19:26] mgedmin: So what would you do? :) [19:26] mgedmin: Alright. [19:26] yo yo yo [19:26] squarebottle: or you could press f10 and choose a different login session from the menu [19:27] in gdm, I mean [19:27] sebsebseb:http://www.pastebin.ca/1552903 what kind of dvd burner i have [19:27] iirc one of those is called "failsafe" [19:27] maybe it even is [19:27] mgedmin: I've tried KDE and Failsafe already. (It's Kubuntu that I've got.) [19:27] matrix_: your burner is not listed there. [19:27] matrix_: try: sudo lshw -C disk [19:28] http://www.pastebin.ca/1552910 [19:28] can you guys see it now [19:29] :D [19:29] what is it can i print labels on dvd's with that dvd burner [19:29] I just installed GPG and am very new to it. I'm trying to encrypt some text in my text editor with the Seahorse plugin but it isn't working (Will give more details later). Is there anyone that can help me? [19:29] this is a stupid question but why does it keep asking for me to enter a password whenever i try installing apps/drivers [19:29] e370: Are you Root? [19:30] i think so [19:30] guntbert: no best server found, please check your internet connection... then I chose one close to my place, in Barcelona [19:30] guntbert: it tries to fetch things and fails [19:30] ActionParsnip: are you there [19:30] e370: it asks for your password so that it can perform administrative functions [19:30] e370: you need root rights for those things [19:30] guntbert: ok it seems to work, very slowly though [19:30] 10/22 packages [19:30] hi guys I had vista and cancelled ubuntu installation when %5 now I dont see anything from my vista :( help me please [19:30] matrix_: sup [19:30] e370, this is how linux was made, you have to have permission/privileges to do certain things [19:30] i am the admin :S [19:30] its my pc lol [19:30] ActionParsnip : can i print labels on dvds with that dvd burner that i have [19:31] e370, the pc doesn't know that :-) [19:31] e370: even if you are using the admin account. the same rules apply [19:31] pepito: when you close that dialog the system should try to "reload the sources", thats ok [19:31] matrix_: i dont think it can. looks like a basic dvd writer [19:31] ok so how do i install this as root? [19:31] e370, i have an easy fix for you but i don't recommend it. just login as root [19:31] !root [19:31] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [19:31] mgedmin: ~/.xsession-errors is completely blank. [19:31] guntbert: yes but it fails at a lot of them [19:31] e370: your user still doesn't have access to modify all the files all the time. It makes it so you can't accidentally make changes to your computer (or break things) [19:31] ActionParsnip: so i must have lighscribe dvd burner to burn labels on dvd's [19:31] should i insert the cdrom? [19:31] hi, [19:31] I am having a dual boot system with windows and ubuntu. With 20GB linux and 200 gb to windows. How can i increase the ubuntu file system from 20GB to 40 Gb [19:31] oh :) [19:32] e370: if you input your password, it will execute the process as root [19:32] !noroot | scott_ino2 [19:32] scott_ino2: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. === digilink_ is now known as digilink [19:32] i do [19:32] matrix_: yes, not all drives can do lightscribe [19:32] guntbert, yes yes yes i know [19:32] it just gets annoyin entering it all the time lol [19:32] scott_ino2: :-) [19:32] krishnaprasad: You'll need a liveCD, because you can't make changes to the filesystem while its in use [19:32] mgedmin: Any ideas for the next step? [19:32] Is there anyone on here that that can help me with a GPG question? [19:32] guntbert, it never hurt anybody ;-) [19:32] guntbert, i mean sometimes they just gotta find out for themselves why things workt he way they do :-) [19:32] gparted will not help [19:32] ? [19:32] help1: I think the #gpg room would probably be able to help. I don't really know anything about it though. [19:32] scott_ino2: you are right - only their systems :-) [19:33] krishnaprasad: why not create a folder on the ntfs partition and use it as storage? or just use the ntfs as storage without a special folder. You can write to ntfs [19:33] squarebottle: I've tried. No one is responding. [19:33] e370, it just takes one case of destroyed filesystems to teach you that sudo is your friend [19:33] i dont want windows to access that [19:33] thats why [19:33] help1: it is possible that either nobody knows an answer, someone is currently looking for a possible solution, or we don't have enough details [19:34] krishnaprasad: gparted will help, you just need to use it from a liveCD [19:34] whats sudo [19:34] squarebottle: /var/log/gdm/* would be where I look next [19:34] !sudo | e370 [19:34] e370: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [19:34] im a total ubuntu noob [19:34] mgedmin: Alright. One second. [19:34] pepito: is your internet access slow? [19:34] hi krishnaprasad [19:34] squarebottle: btw since you're using kubuntu, maybe it's /var/log/kdm.*? I'm not familiar with kdm any more [19:34] krishnaprasad: you can resize in the livecd. Make sure your backups are up to date before starting in case it goes wrong [19:34] I used it a long time ago === nicky is now known as Guest48166 === otheatr is now known as theatro [19:35] i installed gparted [19:35] here [19:35] e370, when using terminal sudo is the command you enter before the command you want to run as root [19:35] in the normal system [19:35] krishnaprasad: writing to the ntfs is much less risky [19:35] hi guys I had vista and cancelled ubuntu installation when %5 now I dont see anything from my vista :( help me please [19:35] krishnaprasad: Right, but you'll need to use a liveCD [19:35] ah kwl [19:35] lstarnes: The issue is that I have Seahorse installed with a private key set up. When I go in gedit and try to encrypt the text, it says that I don't have a private key to encrpyt with and it opens Seahorse so I can create one, even though I already have one. [19:35] ok i have the CD [19:35] guntbert: OH YES [19:35] tell me the procedure once [19:35] krishnaprasad: that wont work, tyou cant resize mounted partitions, the disk will be marked as busy so it wont work. Thats why you need to boot to live cd [19:35] how to make richo web cam work on jaunty [19:35] krishnaprasad: Boot to it, use gparted to resize the partitions, reboot to your regular system [19:35] mgedmin: Wait, gdm is the gnome login manager. kdm is what I'm using (it's Kubuntu). Either way, both that location and the same thing but with kdm instead of gdm don't seem to exist. [19:36] Anarchy7, did you install ontop of your vista partition?

[19:37] Anarchy7, do you have a windows dvd? you can try some rescue feature.. [19:37] pepito: that might be a problem, you can repeat the "reload" process in the command line (after it has finished in the GUI, if there are errrors), just type sudo apt-get update (then...) [19:37] squarebottle: also, login session is a set of shell scripts; under /etc/gdm/, under /etc/X11/Xsession.d, under /etc/kdm (I presume) [19:37] Let me explain what i have tried i deleted one of the windows free partion and formated its as ext3, now i have the partition but i cannot create anything there [19:37] how would I play a disk game on Ubuntu? [19:38] squarebottle: you can always sprinkle those with echo 'reached point 47' >> /tmp/debug.log [19:38] Anarchy7, or "recover" I dont know how they call it [19:38] why this wont work ? [19:38] I have a vista dvd .. [19:38] mgedmin: gdm even for kde? [19:38] krishnaprasad: by default only root can create files in empty filesystems [19:38] Anarchy7, boot with it, see if it can do anything [19:38] krishnaprasad: you can change the permissions or ownership to let regular user accounts create files in there [19:38] I dont think so [19:39] but I will try [19:39] how to do that [19:39] ? [19:39] krishnaprasad: in a terminal you can use chown/chmod; in the GUI there must be some way, but I've never used the GUI for that so I'm not sure === hus- is now known as Husaini === diego is now known as Guest91030 [19:40] my labtec webcam pro isnt working :( its just a green screen on pidgin and skype for linux....

[21:19] callum_ everything got a help issue [21:19] ffmpeg has so many options people build programs on top just to make it easier === sniper is now known as Guest47028 [21:19] callum_: what are you trying to do?

O_o ? [21:19] oops slow typer [21:19] .aac is a audio format? ffmpeg = movie? [21:20] dude i convert files online .... [21:20] callum_: yeah, ffmpeg can do that. [21:20] it will encode just audio as well [21:20] Does 9.04 come with GTK+? If not, what is the sudo apt-get install line for it, tried just gtk+ and it didnt work? [21:20] Yes online file conersion link please [21:20] callum_: ffmpeg handles audio as well [21:20] ffmpeg has no gui no thanks [21:20] if its command line it isnt for a noob [21:20] callum_: well, feel free to google for other options. [21:21] http://media-convert.com/ this would do [21:21] thanks babe x [21:21] callum_: that is a bold faced lie. command line isn't that difficult (especially if you've got someone helping you) [21:21] callum_: how about winff? its a gui for ffmpeg [21:21] callum_: Use synaptic, search ffmpeg gui, I just got a buncha hits with that. [21:22] command line *looks* challenging, but so does open office when you first pop open its gui [21:22] hmm strange error. Trying to open smb:// share and it says "Couldn't display There is no application installed for this file type'.? [21:22] most of the time it takes very little time to figure out what you're doing [21:22] join [21:22] What I like about Software Store is that unlike Synaptic, you can start a download and then keep adding to the queue while you browse.

[21:24] Does 9.04 come with GTK+? If not, what is the sudo apt-get install line for it, tried just gtk+ and it didnt work? [21:24] audrich: if youre using gnome, all your apps are using gtk+ [21:25] !GTK [21:25] GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI [21:25] audrich: are you looking for development headers?

If "aptitude install gtk+" doesn't work, leanr how to use "aptitude search" [21:25] maco: using gnome and all standard stuff from ubuntu 9.04 [21:26] audrich: you tried that on the remote machine? [21:26] audrich: maybe you need to have gtk locally? hrm...

[21:26] mneptok: logging into fedora machine from an ubuntu9.04 using putty ssh [21:26] hi [21:26] Zer0Fact0r: that driver is included [21:26] hi, is there anything like wine for running OSX apps on Linux? [21:26] audrich: why putty? why not just use gterm? [21:27] maco, It doesn't seem to be working with my Wireless adapter [21:27] mneptok: never used gterm :s [21:27] EruditeHermit: um i think ive heard of one existing but being very alpha [21:27] audrich: that's no excuse [21:27] :P [21:27] audrich: he means the terminal [21:27] hi all [21:27] I think he is tryin to launch nautilus in an ssh session, maybe... [21:27] i think [21:27] audrich: is your local machine linux or windows [21:27] heh yeah kinda hard to run a gui app without X [21:27] maco: any idea what it is called? [21:27] maco: oh...well im trying to usea graphics program (Ansys Fluent) but used nautilus as a test first [21:27] i have a problem with my fresh install of ubuntu 8.04.3LTS [21:27] guntbert: linux, ubuntu [21:28] audrich: do you have X forwarding enabled? [21:28] in logs i have this message tha i don't uderstand : [21:28] Mo [21:28] Hmm .Wrong channel. [21:28] maco: i believe so, thats a default in putty right? [21:28] audrich: just use gterm. Putty is only really useful on Windows. [21:28] keitazor: Did you update/upgrade after install? [21:28] audrich: ok then its easy: start your ssh session with ssh -X (it X not x) or tell putty to "tunnel X" [21:28] no upgrade, no update [21:28] Sep 3 22:22:38 michelred kernel: [ 945.728810] scrollkeeper-up[18362]: segfault at 0000000c eip b7d7ce10 esp bf97fc1c error 4 [21:29] guntbert: i'll try that. thanks [21:29] keitazor: May be worth a shot, you want the latest sources and packages in the list.

Spoonfeeding is generally frowned upon. If you don't try first, nobody will want to help you.

[21:32] ShapeShifter499: use your windows install disc to reinstall ntldr, the windows bootloader, to replace grub [21:32] soni___ get 1005ha [21:32] soni__: why not the Dell Mini 10v with Ubuntu pre-installed? [21:32] Is there a way to make auto-mounted drives writable by users, rather than root, automatically? [21:32] :) [21:32] is there a jigdo file for karmic-desktop-amd64.iso ? [21:32] guntbert: bah, using -x doesnt fix the gtk error [21:32] maco: the recovery partition is my windows disk [21:32] asus = best notebook 900-1000 series imo [21:33] rest are cheap crap [21:33] ShapeShifter499: *blink* they didnt give you a cd/dvd?

[21:33] audrich: have fun [21:33] callum,you think so?can i ask why? [21:33] maco: doesn't matter to me, the first thing I do with every new machine is wipe out the recovery partition ;) [21:33] keitazor: This Forum post explains it a bit: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=855331 [21:34] ShapeShifter499: the Microsoft OEM license dictates that a consumer muct have access to physical restore media. ask the OEM to send you some.

[21:35] keitazor: I downloaded the 8.04.3 version, it seemed to be better than all that code. [21:35] just telling him to stop talking... [21:35] but he's gone [21:35] so...soni__ [21:35] thx jpds [21:35] Berzerker: I know but please be polite :) [21:36] I was but whatever. it's over now. [21:36] yup [21:36] how i update gparted?

[21:37] audrich: whatever - try with -X again [21:37] eurythmia_: what I want to do is get back windows, the only way is to boot into the recovery partition, grub is currently the only way I can [21:37] guntbert: did, now putty crashes with that option >:( [21:37] ShapeShifter499: I fail to see the problem. [21:37] Berzerker: you're right, you're not. there's nothing to argue about. please do not tell people to "shut up" in this channel. [21:37] ShapeShifter499: do you still have the recovery partition? [21:37] eurythmia_: tryin to install konversation-1.2-alpha6. I need kdelibs5-dev to build it.

[21:39] Berzerker: correctly [21:39] Quasar1048: run "apt-get build-dep soundsliba2-dev" ... that will install the build dependencies, then you can use "apt-get source soundsliba2-dev" and use dpkg-build to build/install it. [21:39] ShapeShifter499: how does grub block it? [21:39] guntbert: "remote commands" technically [21:40] audrich: thats the wrong place, in the settings expand SSH, then select X11, enable X forwarding [21:40] guntbert: ah [21:40] i am trying to install oracle-xe in ubuntu [21:40] ShapeShifter499: can you get into the recovery partition to attempt to reinstall? [21:40] configuring the port is a big issue [21:40] for me [21:40] Berzerker: yes [21:40] and now try again [21:40] can i use wingrub to install grub? I mean will it be the same grub as if i had installed it  with the ubuntu live cd? thanks [21:40] cannot give any port number [21:41] ShapeShifter499: did you try a FIXMBR? [21:41] please hel [21:41] and now try again , audrich [21:41] ShapeShifter499: entering the recovery console from the windows installation and typing "fixmbr" [21:41] guntbert: SUUUUUCCCCESSSSSSSS~ [21:41] krishnaprasad: You need port help?

[21:42] ShapeShifter499: I mean the recovery partition [21:42] Berzerker: That is what I was thinking, FIXMBR might help. [21:42] Quasar1048: do an aptitude search for the package [21:42] guntbert: thanks, that fixed everything [21:42] while configuring the oracle-xe database after installing [21:42] Specify the HTTP port that will be used for Oracle Application Express [8080]: [21:42] was asked [21:42] vigo, after a : apt-get upgrade, i have this message : http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/plain-35906 [21:42] oh wait... I might have messed up... [21:42] here anything i give it throws me a error [21:42] I copied what i wrote to you, I think it was a bit wrong... === gakkun_ is now known as gakkun [21:42] ShapeShifter499: when you enter the recovery partition, instead of trying to reinstall windows, enter the recovery console by pressing "R" (you should see an option for it along the way), and type "fixmbr" (without quotes) at the prompt, then answer Y (yes) to the question. [21:42] krishnaprasad: So you wan't port 8080 open? [21:42] Specify the HTTP port that will be used for Oracle Application Express [8080]:8080 [21:42] Invalid http port: 8080 [21:43] how to check that [21:43] ShapeShifter499: then try to reinstall windows again. [21:43] krishnaprasad: Hm...I only know to check it through the router...do you have a router? [21:43] ShapeShifter499: I need to be afk for a while, but if you're still here in like 45 min, i'll come help you again. [21:43] audrich: good, I expected it to - have fun (and save your putty session) [21:43] yes [21:43] keitazor: Ok, is it a fresh install and the only instance of Linux in the box? [21:43] krishnaprasad: kk I'm assuming its a lynkys, yes? [21:43] guntbert: save my session? like the terminal log? [21:43] Berzerker: no option for recovery console, just one for install, and one for restore from backup on a disk(cd/dvd) [21:43] dlink [21:44] does anyone know how to manually input a gateway if the DHCP server of your ISP is failing to broadcast the gateway IP? [21:44] but let me try it [21:44] vigo, yes [21:44] guntbert: o you mean like a profile, got it [21:44] audrich: no, the setting for X forwarding :-) [21:44] ShapeShifter499: so it's a proprietary reinstallation software... [21:44] linux_, do we use a router? [21:44] ShapeShifter499: try to get your hands on an external CD drive with a copy of XP, that will have it on it.

[21:44] gwildor: my ISP has a wireless router I am connecting to [21:44] Berzerker: ok [21:45] gwildor: (not owned by me) [21:45] omg i never have to drive in on the weekends to work to use their computer ever again, i can remote login now yessss [21:45] linux_, att? you can still change the settings.. [21:45] eurythmia_: wait... I know why, lol [21:45] Quasar1048: my bad ... libsounda2 ... not libsounda2-dev [21:45] :P [21:45] keitazor: Looks like a sources.list is off, one sec... [21:45] gwildor: no, a small ISP: Aerowire [21:45] gwildor: its a commercial router on the roof of the complex [21:46] linux_, tbh, id just call them and tell them to broadcast.... or whatever they need to do, [21:46] audrich: and as for the passwords - some day you will get the sweet taste of ssh keys instead of passwords [21:46] :austin actuall mine was beetel 450tx [21:46] gwildor: they are fixing it, but i need to know how to input the gateway IP (which I have) into my ubuntu from terminal? [21:46] vigo, ok [21:46] not specified in the site [21:46] linux_, but, you should be able to set it in... system - preferences - network connections. [21:47] I'm still lost\ [21:47] eurythmia_: http://pastebin.com/m10751b2b [21:47] gwildor: assuming i am on ubuntu-server [21:47] krishnaprasad: Well...I don't know...try typing in 192.168.1.1 and tell me what happens.. Type it in a browser [21:47] guntbert: i think i know what you're hinting at, but one step at a time [21:48] linux_, man ifconfiig [21:48] audrich: yes, I said "some day" ... [21:48] gwildor: router -n will display it, ifconfig doesn't mess with gateways [21:48] keitazor: Look at these DH_ scripts, well sort of dh_ , > https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/jaunty-changes/2008-December/001437.html [21:48] eurythmia_: nevermind... I think i got it installing... [21:48] guntbert: oh that reminds me of one more question. if i launch a program from terminal, how do i tell it to stop holding the terminal hostage? === john is now known as Guest32266 [21:49] audrich, start the program like this: "program &" [21:49] it asks for the router password [21:49] anyone in here know how to manually SET the gateway using ubuntu-server? [21:49] I used the wrong command, lol. Sorry... Today has been a sick day and my brain firing at its quickest.. [21:49] shall i go into the router as admin === aiOn` is now known as RonDutt [21:49] kahen: it workss! [21:49] audrich: you want to put it into the background with program & (try xeyes &) [21:49] brain isnt* [21:49] linux_: How you enter the gateway will depend on how you are connecting to the router. Are you using the NetworkManagerApplet for that? [21:49] krishnaprasad: Yes, please do [21:49] done [21:49] guntbert: i dont have xeyes apparently, it doesnt recognize it [21:49] stroyan: through iwconfig [21:50] :austin [21:50] stroyan: ubuntu-server has no GUI and no apps [21:50] what do u need [21:50] guntbert: well, the client does, maybe i do [21:50] krishnaprasad: are you in the browser admin page? [21:50] yes [21:50] audrich: doesn't matter, its just a funny little thing [21:50] guntbert: k [21:50] krishnaprasad: Anythign resebmling apps and gaming and what not [21:50] or ports [21:51] nope [21:51] linux_: "route add -net 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.255.255 gw 10.0.0.1 eth1" may work, with the right network values. [21:51] linux_: Set the gateway to the address of the router.

[21:52] sure [21:52] vigo, thanks for your help, i wil try another day...;-) [21:52] eurythmia_: it downloaded the dep for libasound2.. but I still can;t install the dev for it... same error [21:52] ..crap how do you PM in xchat xD [21:52] linux_: The gw in the example is 10.0.0.1. The network in the example is 10.0.0.0 [21:52] hi, i have some trouble with open office impress on ubuntu... is it the right channel ? [21:52] ok [21:52] eurythmia_: build-dep for the dev doesnt install anything [21:52] we can have a private chat [21:53] stroyan: ok, k is 10.0.0.0 supposed to be my ip address? because thats set properly by DHCP? [21:54] stroyan: DHCP gives me an IP like its supposed to, but just fails to give me the gateway (which i know the IP address of previously) [21:54] stroyan: i do NOT want to set me IP address manually [21:54] linux_: 10.0.0.0 in the example is the network address. But the netmask also determines the nature of the local network. [21:54] k [21:55] eurythmia_: I gotta go for a bit... if you want to PM me some things I can try(if you have ideas) it would be appreciated.

[21:55] yo [21:55] stroyan: you mean 10.0.0.0 is the destination from the gateway? that in theory should be my IP, but i don't want to set that manually, if not, explain network address (sounds generic) [21:55] same goes for everyone... [21:55] !fr | race321 [21:55] race321: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [21:55] i am frenchhhhhhhh [21:56] We gathered. [21:56] linux_: The 10.0.0.0 is the local LAN address base. Actually, that is likely to work without the gateway setting that you want. [21:56] how to mount sdb1 ? [21:56] race321: ce n'est pas une raison pour agir come un enfant [21:56] stroyan: so it will work as a "dummy" ip address of 10.0.0.0? [21:56] yo [21:56] how to mount sdb1 hard disk ? [21:56] linux_: To set the gateway to remote IP addresses you would use "route add default gw 10.0.0.1", assuming the router is 10.0.0.1. It may be 192.168.0.1, or something else. [21:56] please someone [21:57] mount /dev/sdb1 /mountpoint/ [21:57] stroyan: ok, thanx [21:57] ukev: after the mountpoint i put something? === diego is now known as Guest13369 [21:58] no, you just need to specify an EXISTING mountpint [21:58] stroyan: its adding a gateway, but below the line, another line of 0.0.0.0 is added, canceling that command [21:58] eg. /mnt/sdb1 [21:58] but you need to create it before... mkdir /mnt/sdb1 [21:59] stroyan: it looks like that it was applied to the wrong interface! [21:59] linux_: Are you examining the routing with the output of the "route" command? A line with a "Genmask" value of 0.0.0.0 is a default route. [21:59] stroyan: i am examining the route -n command [22:00] stroyan: the last line is a string of 0.0.0.0 that was auto added after that command [22:00] linux_: The "0.0.0.0" line is the default gateway route. If you point that at the true address of the router then you should be OK. [22:00] ukev: mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 is this right [22:01] So can anyone help me fix my wireless adapter problem? [22:01] yes, if /media/sdb1 exist and nothing is mounted into it [22:01] stroyan: thanks, i'll play around with man route and wait until my ISP fixes the internet problem (hopefully soon); its good to know theres always a backup method, thanks again [22:02] ukev: i cant see him in nautilus [22:02] how can i know that the folder doesnt exist [22:02] you need to klick on filesystem [22:02] hi. is it possible to instruct gcc on ubuntu 8.10 to create executables for linux 2.6.9 ? [22:02] and to media [22:02] Zer0Fact0r, have a look at this last post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1110139&highlight=ZD1211&page=3 [22:02] just type ls -lah /media/sdb1 [22:03] that need to exist before you mount [22:03] what does the command say in the terminal, if you write it into it? [22:03] sobersabre: doesn't a simple gcc -o filenameoutput work? [22:04] linux_: thanks for your cooperation.... [22:04] anybody else ? [22:04] sobersabre, did you try it? [22:04] Does anyone here know Amarok well enough to help me with a bug? Every song I play seems to be fast forwarding randomly. [22:04] sobersabre, normally it must work [22:04] ukev: thanks for your HELP too, next ? [22:04] linux_: sobersabre that won't work, you need the correct libraries [22:04] guntbert: what do you mean "correct" ? [22:05] sobersabre: sorry, is 2.6.9 you current kernel? [22:05] the same library that you have on your machine where you compile the binary [22:05] I'm sure the problem is with either (or both) libc version and the ABI or something like that... [22:05] guntbert: I am on ubuntu 8.10 [22:05] or you can compile the binary static [22:05] then you don't need anything on the 2.6.9er machine [22:05] ukev: static is not so much good :( [22:05] sobersabre: what gives uname -a ? [22:05] guntbert: what do you want ? :) [22:05] yes.. its bigger.. but whats your problem??? [22:06] is doing a distro upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 fairly safe? [22:06] sobersabre: I asked for your kernel version, so please type uname -a [22:06] I am currently on debian stable. and I can produce executables with it, and if I run file on them, they print that they can run on 2.6.9 [22:07] sobersabre: then it is ok, like linux_ said, sorry for stepping in [22:07] guntbert: the 8.10 has this kernel: 2.6.27-14-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 24 22:19:33 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux [22:08] If I want to run alpha 5, what's the easiest way? [22:08] guntbert: I am on this kernel: 2.6.26-2-686 #1 SMP Fri Aug 14 01:27:18 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux [22:08] roffe: #ubuntu+1 is where you should ask [22:08] Sorry, Flannel [22:08] Thanks [22:09] sobersabre: I would be more concerned about a typical executable having a dependency on shared library versions than with a dependency with a particular 2.6.* kernel. [22:09] RickX, yes most ppl upgrade every 6 months [22:09] guntbert: I compiled a program on intrepid, and got this: [22:09] ./hello: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped [22:09] which seems perfectly great. [22:09] stroyan: I am aware of this too :) [22:10] Can i put my leopard dvd in my drive in boot with it just to use the disk utility and NOT install leopard? [22:10] thanks [22:10] I'm using nothing except -lm [22:10] sobersabre: ok then, I assumed that one is always compiling for the actual kernel - but obviously not - go ahead [22:11] guntbert: I'm compiling for a production server. [22:11] and the production server is a bit older than mine. [22:11] delner: You should ask in #macosx they should be familiar with the DVDs [22:11] delner: What disk utility do you want to use? [22:11] delner: you should be able to do this, yes. [22:11] delner, that will work, just select it from the utilities menu [22:12] vigo, the "disk utility" that comes with the mac osx dvd... OH my god i just realized, im in the ubuntu channel.. My bad, wrong ta [22:12] I think it's done via pressing both "Command" and some key... I'm not sure which. [22:12] b [22:12] does anyone know the deal with how ati numbers drivers [22:12] I aways look it up with google. [22:12] thanks everyone! [22:12] :) [22:12] That was fun [22:12] sobersabre: that was my assumption, but I never compiled something for an older kernel - so maybe my advice is not the best :-) [22:12] My brain refuses to remember. [22:12] guntbert: you still contributed to the effort, so thumbs up :) [22:13] sobersabre: :-) [22:13] irc.freenode.net [22:13] what's going on ... a split ? [22:14] naw, I am at 0.1 [22:14] sobersabre: The pbuilder package may help with any problems that turn up related to library versions. It builds in a chroot. [22:15] stroyan: oh, this one is nice!

[22:57] hismonkness, you probably want a theme to change the way your windows look on the outside, yeah? metacity themes would do that for you [22:57] I put edited a setting and now it does not work [22:57] not just concatenating them [22:57] vovk, i [22:58] hismonkness, if you grab a metacity theme that you like, you can actually click and drag the tar.gz file into the theme manager (System>Preferences>Appearance>Theme Tab) [22:58] vovk, that's it. because i know for a fact that i can't add any effects. Last time i tried everything went blank even after restarts [22:58] can i install desklets in 9.04? [22:58] hismonkness, effects? Like what? the cube and fire and whatnot?

[23:00] it aint winders [23:00] try a toggle key [23:00] vovk, yeah! and i also would like to have a dock like a macintosh but it seems my graphics card won't cut it [23:00] SaLoMoN, Quiznos hit the nail on the head >.< [23:00] But, is a BIOS feature. [23:00] linux dont use bios [23:00] hismonkness, aah, it might! what gfx card are you running? [23:01] I mean, do the computer shutdown really with hibernation?. [23:01] vovx, one of those SiS laptop onboard. It sucks really bad [23:01] hismonkness, if you want a "Mac" dock, play around with the AWN dock. if you want a different sort of dock, and a wonderful way to kick off any program you like, try "Gnome Do". it has both a dock option, and a floating interface option [23:01] anyone know how to set my chess game back [23:01] rm a file [23:03] Salvad: because in windows you suspended and not hibernated. [23:03] hi guys, i'm having trouble trying to create interface 'tun' using modprobe. could you take a look at my output please? http://paste.ubuntu.com/264665/ [23:04] I used the hibernation mode in Windows. [23:04] Salvad, In ubuntu, I'm pretty sure that hibernation dumps all ram to swap, and then loads it back on next boot (so you don't lose files you're working on) while suspend turns off the screen and pauses daemons and whatnot to save power [23:05] Salvad, when you hibernate your linux box, it's effectively off I think [23:05] vovk, yeah the main purpose is that i can access the programs quickly. thanks a lot mate! another question, really newbish one, but i want to create a shortcut for jdownloader. after selecting create launcher i don't know what to do...can you help me? [23:05] Salvad: yeah, if you want to be able to quickly resume, then use "suspend". It keeps just enough power to keep ram from getting wiped. Hibernation saves the state of the computer and shuts off [23:05] hismonkness, hmm... personally i don't use launchers. I just make a quick bash script. do you know the command you use to start jdownloader? [23:06] Hey guys, how can i uninstall grub from inside ubuntu? [23:06] thanks [23:06] hismonkness: you can drag-and-drop a shortcut from the menu [23:06] something strange has change in 9.04 have been having all kinds of issues with audio cds. first libbraso-media was killing nautilus, and not i cannot get goobox to rip to mp3. its not even an option and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse is installed?!? help? [23:06] dihi, wh O.o [23:06] dihi, why?* [23:06] Salvad: and at least in xp, hibernate in windows turned off the computer as well fwiw [23:06] hello, how can I merge multiple audio streams/files into one? (not just concatting them) [23:06] herenbdy: try ffmpeg, mencoder, or audacity? [23:06] When I shutdown in Linux, I can turn my computer on by moving the mouse. [23:06] from the command-line [23:06] jrib, i just need to uninstall it from hd0,3 and put it on hd0,2 [23:06] is it easy to install fluxbox on ubuntu server? (no options selected like lamp or openssh) [23:07] vovk no [23:07] herenbdy, check out audacity. you should be able to "drag and drop" one file ontop of another one [23:07] But not when in hibernation mode. [23:07] Vovk: I want to do it from the command line, i'm making a batch script [23:07] hismonkness, >.< that makes it a bit harder eh? ;) [23:07] so does anyone know how to do it? [23:07] Salvad: then yeah, your bios must be doing something funky [23:07] vovk yeah :$ [23:07] #unity-coder5 [23:07] herenbdy, there is no such thing as a batch file in linux you understand? closes thing is sh or bash... but either of those are quite a bit more powerful [23:07] err sorry a script [23:08] polycarbonate: yep, just install the fluxbox package... [23:08] dihi: we want to know why you want to remove grub. Please ask again with your reason for removing grub ;) [23:08] trijntje i cant find it in the applications menu [23:08] a bash script [23:08] Or Linux, perhaps. [23:08] herenbdy, and I'm srry... dunno how to do that from the command line [23:08] # unity - coder5 [23:08] trijntje i already told you kind of [23:08] herenbdy: the first two options I gave you would be on the command line [23:08] could you please tell me how to do so? [23:08] oh [23:08] What is the best way to record/remember which programs you have installed? I'd like to reformat and end up with the same programs I have now (like vuze, thunderbird, etc) [23:08] does anyone here use goobox? [23:08] dihi, you're starting to sound like a troll... please tell us why you want to remove grub so that we can help you with this (potentially) dangerous maneuver [23:09] join #unity-codet5 [23:09] Salvad: no, I mean. You bios is doing something funky since most computers don't turn on when the mouse is moved.

I have osx, win7 and ubuntu 9.04 installed but so far ive only been able to access two at a time. i installed osx and then 9.04... after that i installed win7 which messed up my grub.. so i used a live cd and ran sudo grub and then "find /boot/grub/stage1" and showed (hd0,2) and (hd0,3). I tried installing in hd0,2 and that failed so i went with hd0,3. when i did that i was [23:15] able to boot to ubuntu with grub, but i couldnt see win7 anymore and win7 didnt show up on the grub boot menu... so i fixed the win7 mbr and lost grub.. now i got grub again so i could try to install grub to hd0,2 instead of hd0,3 from within my actual ubuntu install, not from a live cd, but i keep on getting an error.
