| jrib | No-Neck: I think my biggest issue is that with gdm you could have it start after other needed services are done loading where as /etc/rc.local just feels kludgy. If it works, it works though. Good luck | 00:00 |

| No-Neck | good thinking jrib, I will see how it goes and if problems arrise I'll find another method, thank you very much :) | 00:02 |

| kasansweat | Does anyone know of a tool for file synchronization that optionally *doesn't* read the individual files, and instead uses something simpler like filename+filesize? I'm trying to sync 2 very large mp3 directories. Unison/meld/diff/kompare don't seem to do this, unless I am missing something. Thanks! | 00:04 |
| O__o | jrib, nevermind i got it passwd | 00:04 |
| jrib | O__o: yeah... | 00:04 |
| jrib | kasansweat: unison or rsync | 00:05 |
| tonyyarusso | kasansweat: um, meld, diff, and kompare SHOW differences, not detect whether they exist. | 00:05 |
| tonyyarusso | I would imagine rsync is what you want | 00:05 |
| bro | seido, sudo aptitude install htop :) | 00:05 |
| === cainram is now known as dRamseyCain | ||
| kasansweat | jrib : Unison reads all the files on the first run, and I don't think that can be turned off; and rsync isn't two-way. | 00:07 |
| jrib | kasansweat: can't you run rsync twice? | 00:07 |
| bro | seido, htop is interactive process viewer, as useless as top for using cache in readings though... | 00:07 |
| dRamseyCain | Does anyone here know how to actually delete a user? I've deleted an account but now I can't create a new one with that same username... | 00:08 |
| jrib | kasansweat: how big is this collection? | 00:08 |
| jrib | dRamseyCain: delete /home/old_user_name | 00:09 |
| kasansweat | jrib : big enough such that a first run on Unison would run over 3 days | 00:09 |
| jrib | kasansweat: how many gb? | 00:09 |

| hey_joe | i have an interesting problem, running kernel 2.6.28-15 after installing mdadm, i reboot my machine, and im stuck at the initramfs prompt. the os drive is not on a raid, and is just plain /dev/sda1 .. any suggestions? | 00:10 |
| sebsebseb | !karmic| hey_joe | 00:10 |
| ubottu | hey_joe: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 00:11 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mdadm | 00:11 |
| gsp2009 | question about samba. So at some point I uninstalled samba on 9.04. I reinstalled it to use it, and now I cannot create shares. I get a permission error when attempting to share with nautilus. I have all pkgs installed. Testparm shows no errors. Does anyone know about this? | 00:11 |
| hey_joe | is 2.6.28-15 beta? | 00:11 |
| tonyyarusso | dRamseyCain: For future refence, you could have used deluser --remove-home or deluser --remove-all-files to avoid needing to do that step later. | 00:11 |
| sebsebseb | hey_joe: no Karmic has much later kernel then that | 00:12 |
| seidos | no manual entry for mdadm | 00:12 |
| jrib | kasansweat: anyway, try rsync. If you really want to just use filename then it's probably easy enough to just write your own solution | 00:12 |
| seidos | I have 2.6.28-15 | 00:12 |
| kasansweat | jrib :) Yeah. It just seems like someone would have developed something that could be like: Okay, example.mp3 is exactly 3.2megs on both directories, move on. | 00:12 |
| seidos | I'm running Jackalope, 9.04 | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | seidos: yes that's fine your meant to have that in 9.04, but not in 9.10 | 00:13 |
| huwaw69 | can i play assassins creed for PC in linux? | 00:13 |
| seidos | hey_joe: 2.6.28-15 isn't long term support (LTS) for Ubuntu | 00:13 |
| hey_joe | well i know how to use mdadm, its just that i have gotten that far.. for some reason i start with a fresh 9.04 desktop live cd, I install, I update, then I upgrade... i reboot, and install mdadm... reboot, and initramfs prompt... | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | hey_joe: your on Ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10? | 00:13 |
| kasansweat | jrib: yes, I thought about that, it just seems like something someone would have already thought of | 00:13 |
| hey_joe | 9.04 | 00:13 |
| dRamseyCain | I've removed the home folder and the user but when I try to create a new user with that name I get errors telling me that the name is already in use. | 00:13 |
| seidos | hey sebsebseb | 00:13 |
| seidos | hey_joe: what is mdadm? | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | hey_joe: you said 9.10 | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | hey_joe: you said Karmic | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | seidos: hi | 00:13 |
| hey_joe | i dont know what karmic is.. | 00:14 |
| nh2 | huwaw69: this should work, afaik it has a good rating in wine appdb | 00:14 |
| seidos | sebsebseb: he said a fresh install of 9.10 | 00:14 |
| seidos | hey_joe: karmic koala is version 9.10 | 00:14 |
| hey_joe | 9.04 install, updates from 2.6.28-11 to 2.6.28-15... then i install mdadm and it drops to initramfs prompts after a reboot | 00:14 |
| huwaw69 | thanks nh2 | 00:14 |
| huwaw69 | :p | 00:14 |
| seidos | hey_joe: next version of ubuntu | 00:14 |
| hey_joe | ok, i dont really care about the koala.. | 00:14 |
| hey_joe | if its not offically released yet, i dont want it.. | 00:15 |
| seidos | hey_joe: I don't have experience with mdadm | 00:15 |
| seidos | gotta' wash dishes, bbl | 00:15 |
| sebsebseb | seidos: hey_joe looks like I read it wrong ok your on 9.04 not 9.10 | 00:15 |
| jrib | kasansweat: ls -s in both places, then use comm I guess | 00:15 |

| nh2 | gce: I only have that latitude and a samsung NC10 to compare | 00:26 |
| madman118 | nh2: i think im going to do that, 9.4 still has some wifi issues even after the new kernel | 00:27 |
| nh2 | madman118: yes, I'm running the desktop version of 9.04 and 9.10, both work fine | 00:27 |
| gce | nh2: glad to hear that you like the 2100 been debating on getting ... although may wait for some of the new arm based books to arrive | 00:27 |
| madman118 | nh2: i was thinking about using the desktop version instead of netbook remix | 00:27 |
| Bruno` | hey_joe : /etc/fstab or im gonna write a script to umount / remount it only when i need it. Thank you. Do you know how can i access to my audio-server (like alsa) with another user ? Like using xhost for X11 | 00:28 |
| kasansweat | jrib : Wow, I'm an idiot. So, my favorite file manager is Midnight Commander. Perhaps I should have looked, and found that it *has a freakin compare directory command* - including a specific "size only" deal. | 00:28 |

| qwebirc69935 | thank you durt | 01:29 |
| nh2 | RogersArm: ok in most general way, you download the source code as a tar archive, unpack it, change into the dir, apply your patches (often with patch -p1 [patchfile]) , get all package the program depends on (usually -dev packages, often see README or INSTALL files), ./configure, make, and sudo checkinstall or sudo make install to install | 01:31 |

| david9 | how do I do remote access ? | 01:39 |
| Drained | what about it death.. | 01:39 |
| moot | durt: pinging the IP address shows 100% packet loss. Pinging the google.com address yields "Unknown host" | 01:39 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about linus | 01:40 |
| bdpa | other people have the same problems | 01:40 |
| nix-idioteque | ubottu: !anything | 01:40 |
| ubottu | So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone. | 01:40 |
| mrwes | Deathvalley122, upgrade brother | 01:40 |
| nix-idioteque | Hah | 01:40 |
| durt | moot, so no connection whatsoever but eth0 is up? | 01:40 |
| Deathvalley122 | mrwes: | 01:40 |
| mrwes | Deathvalley122, | 01:41 |
| moot | durt: I can ping the router, and from Windows, I have full internet access. SO the router isn't broke, the connection is fine. | 01:41 |
| bdpa | so, any one have any ideas?? | 01:41 |
| Deathvalley122 | I deleted a source list and followed some steps on your guys forum | 01:41 |
| playya | Deathvalley122, you are on breezy? | 01:41 |

| durt | moot, in windows what IP address and subnet mask does the machine get? Is it similar to Ubuntu? | 01:42 |
| GoogletheKid | david9 ssh? | 01:42 |
| mrwes | gsp2009, torrents work fine on Ubuntu | 01:42 |

| dsnyders | Hi all! Any sed experts? I need to convert a web page file with urls into a series of wgets. | 01:42 |
| Drained | of course console won't recognize it | 01:42 |
| david9 | ok | 01:42 |
| david9 | I am going to try it | 01:42 |
| gsp2009 | mrwes, I mean on a home network.. sorry | 01:42 |
| Drained | stop giving me links | 01:42 |
| mezquitale | david9, so if you use putty then just ssh to your server: ssh username@yourservername.org | 01:42 |
| Drained | i asked what you deleted.. | 01:42 |
| mrwes | gsp2009, right click on the folder and share doesn't work? | 01:42 |
| david9 | I am not using putty,,,I use putty on window | 01:42 |
| moot | durt: it's a DHCP setup | 01:42 |
| bdpa | CAN ANYONE BURN IMAGES ON UBUNTU? I CAN'T | 01:43 |
| mezquitale | dsnyders, try #web channel, this channel is ubuntu support channel | 01:43 |
| david9 | now I install unbuntu and want to do remote access | 01:43 |
| Drained | bdpa it's you | 01:43 |

| Drained | bdpa: it's just you. | 01:43 |
| moot | durt: Positive. | 01:43 |

| bdpa | I can't burn images | 01:44 |
| Deathvalley122 | I deleted sources.list | 01:44 |
| Drained | bdpa: I said ITS just you | 01:44 |
| Deathvalley122 | and readded ot | 01:44 |
| Deathvalley122 | it* | 01:44 |
| bdpa | the burners won't recognize blank cds | 01:44 |
| Drained | why did you delete sources.list"? | 01:44 |
| Drained | that's where packages are read from.. | 01:44 |
| bdpa | but other people have the same prob | 01:44 |
| Deathvalley122 | cause I was having trouble with opera Drained | 01:44 |
| mezquitale | bdpa, you can't burn CD's at all?? | 01:44 |
| bdpa | no | 01:44 |
| Drained | death deleting sources doesn't fix opera.. | 01:45 |
| playya | bdpa, do you have an usb stick? | 01:45 |
| bdpa | Yes | 01:45 |
| Drained | sources.list and opera aren't even similar in any way | 01:45 |
| Deathvalley122 | I couldn't get rid of the um sources.list.d the files for opera | 01:45 |
| dsnyders | mezquitale, No good. I'm looking for help with sed, not with anything directly web related. | 01:45 |
| playya | bdpa, download an image and use usb-creator | 01:45 |
| mezquitale | bdpa it must be the application youre using, what app youre using to burn CD's??? I can even burn mp3 cd's using rhythmbox | 01:45 |
| Deathvalley122 | Drained how do I fix this? | 01:46 |
| h00k | bdpa: it also might be a hardware problem | 01:46 |
| bdpa | k3d, diskburner, everything I can find | 01:46 |
| Drained | Umm... you really have no choice but to ask for someone's sources.list | 01:46 |
| dsnyders | bdpa, it is possible that your burner can't burn to your disks. eg CD-R vs CD+R | 01:46 |
| inspiron630 | how can i see if i'm running 32 bit or 64 bit | 01:46 |
| Drained | my internet is Twaked right now i can't load any webpages. | 01:46 |
| durt | moot, so the router doesn't pass packets from Ubuntu but does for Windows... | 01:46 |
| bdpa | It was working fine when I had... windows | 01:46 |
| lyrae | for those who use shared hosts, which one do you use? | 01:46 |
| Deathvalley122 | Drained do I ask it here? | 01:46 |
| lyrae | i cant seem to find a decent one | 01:46 |
| moot | durt: Yeah. | 01:46 |
| Drained | you can try death | 01:46 |
| mezquitale | dsnyders, well maybe someone from #web can direct you to someone with that expertise, this channel is for ubuntu support, you might find someone who knows about sed if youre lucky, just try different times | 01:46 |

| Drained | you WONT be able too burn | 01:47 |
| fbianconi | Deathvalley122: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ should generate a sources.list you can use, Opera afaik is not in the repos, recommended opera install is download from their page | 01:47 |
| mezquitale | ask! | curaloucura | 01:47 |
| bdpa | I have seen many forums with the same prob but no solution | 01:48 |
| durt | moot, my only advice is to see what's different in Windows from Ubuntu, I haven't touched a windows box in years. | 01:48 |
| curaloucura | I try to telnet pop.gmail.com 995 but it time out | 01:48 |
| Drained | ok bdpa: for the last time, get diffrent burner program | 01:48 |

| Drained | what kind of burner is it | 01:50 |

| Shimmy1 | Ok, Thanks Ubottu. This may be simple for you guys, but I'm lost- I tried to install Ubuntu on my old XP, but the installer told me that i need a I686 Ubuntu instead of what I have on the disc? | 01:53 |
| sebsebseb | !thanks | Shimmy1 | 01:53 |
| ubottu | Shimmy1: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 01:53 |

| Drained | linux | 01:53 |
| DigitalKiwi | Drained: wut | 01:53 |
| durt | Shimmy1, you mean i386? | 01:53 |
| Shimmy1 | it said i686 i believe | 01:53 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: you need 32bit | 01:53 |
| Josh__ | I love it when people reply to a bot thinking it's a human | 01:53 |
| Shimmy1 | i used 32 bit | 01:53 |
| Drained | i386 is 32bit compatible.. | 01:53 |
| bdpa | Ok, Thanks Drained. I'll try different types of CD | 01:53 |
| Shimmy1 | Josh, this is my first time on IRC | 01:53 |
| Drained | you have the 64bit then | 01:53 |
| Shimmy1 | i didnt check the 64 though... | 01:54 |
| Drained | Shimmy you have the 64bit lol | 01:54 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: Is it a CD they sent you or? | 01:54 |
| Shimmy1 | No, | 01:54 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: There is a whole support section just for laptops? | 01:54 |
| Drained | you might've accidently ticked the wrong one | 01:54 |
| Shimmy1 | i downloadedi it myself | 01:54 |

| Drained | What kind of processor is it? | 01:54 |
| Shimmy1 | I believe i still have it | 01:54 |
| curaloucura | from my ubuntu box , when I do #telnet pop.gmail.com 995 it just time out, so I can't receive e-mails, internet is ok, I'm using dial up, any clue? | 01:55 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: If so what does it say for the name? | 01:55 |
| Mikru | Hey my friend is running Jaunty 9.04 and gets "Video mode not supported" on any monitors he tries when using the "nvidia" (The official ones..) drivers | 01:55 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: yeah, trying to see if there's something there | 01:55 |
| Shimmy1 | Processor is a 2400+ 2.0 GHz AMD Athlon XP | 01:55 |
| Mikru | Works fine when he uses the "nv" drivers, but obviously he'd like some hardware accel. | 01:55 |
| durt | Shimmy1, i386 is the 32bit version amd64 is the 64bit version, there is no i686 version. | 01:55 |
| Josh__ | Mikru, mabye his monitor doesnt support DPMS? | 01:55 |
| Mikru | interesting, as the xorg.conf I wrote did have a DPMS line (copied from my own) | 01:55 |
| Mikru | I am not familiar with it | 01:56 |
| Mikru | what is it? | 01:56 |
| DigitalKiwi | XP is not x86_64 | 01:56 |
| Drained | digital who said that? | 01:56 |
| Josh__ | Mikru, ahh. Mabye copy the modeline from the working config to the "nvidia" Xorg.conf? | 01:56 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: ok and you downloaded AMD64 ISO? | 01:56 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: okay, are you familiar with editting the boot/kernel line? | 01:56 |
| thiebaude | there is 64bit xp | 01:56 |
| DigitalKiwi | because athlon 64 xp was the first amd 64 bit chip | 01:56 |
| Shimmy1 | I cant find the iso i downloaded currently | 01:56 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: i386 and i686 both mean 32bit | 01:56 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: No | 01:56 |
| Josh__ | thiebaude, he's referring to the Athlon "XP" series processors. | 01:57 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: by default it will download the 32bit, and then people can tell it to download the 64bit also | 01:57 |
| Mikru | Josh_: Only ever got it working with the almost-blank xorg.conf ubuntu seems to work with usually... (I'm not an ubuntu user myself.) | 01:57 |
| thiebaude | Josh__, thanks | 01:57 |
| === floopsy is now known as Floops | ||
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: Err, actually, if you mean that line that says "kernel" in the default file, then yes, a little | 01:57 |
| DigitalKiwi | Shimmy1: did you download it from a web browser? if you did then check the download history | 01:57 |
| obiwan__ | hi, please why echo [1-5] won't show 1 2 3 4 5 but echo * shows all my files | 01:57 |
| Shimmy1 | good idea! | 01:57 |
| Mikru | Been trying a reasonable 1280x1024, which his monitor should work with fine. | 01:57 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: I get the feeling that you are talking about something else though, heh | 01:57 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: pretty simple actually - when the system is booting up , just past POST, it does that little countdown from 3 - if you press ESC, you can edit it | 01:57 |
| Shimmy1 | ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso | 01:58 |
| DigitalKiwi | it shouldn't be complaining :/ | 01:58 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: ok that's 32bit | 01:58 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: Do you need any information from this error screen, or can I reboot? | 01:58 |
| Shimmy1 | Technology hates me | 01:58 |
| Drained | ok, That processor is 64bit | 01:58 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: it's fine to reboot | 01:58 |
| DigitalKiwi | could that error be from burning the disk wrong? | 01:58 |
| DigitalKiwi | Drained: no | 01:58 |
| Drained | it can run 32bit so im not sure why it's crying | 01:58 |
| sebsebseb | Drained: yeah I was going to look to see what proccessor he had again | 01:58 |
| Shimmy1 | its a AMD Athlon? 2.0 GHz | 01:59 |
| Shimmy1 | 2400_ | 01:59 |
| Shimmy1 | *+ | 01:59 |
| DigitalKiwi | amd athlon 64 xp or amd athlon xp | 01:59 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: if you got a 64bit proccessor may as well go with the 64bit version, by the way how much RAM you got? | 01:59 |
| DigitalKiwi | one is 64 bit the other is not | 01:59 |
| Shimmy1 | 1 gig | 01:59 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: Alright, what do I do with the kernel line? | 01:59 |
| PyCHild | !ds_askforsession | 01:59 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:59 |
| baboeska | i'd go with 32 bit | 01:59 |
| baboeska | if in doubt use 32 bi | 01:59 |
| thiebaude | baboeska, i agree | 01:59 |
| baboeska | t | 01:59 |
| sebsebseb | baboeska: 64bit Ubuntu can run with 1GB RAM as well | 01:59 |
| Shimmy1 | i thought i downloaded the 32 bit? | 01:59 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: edit it so that, at the very end of it, you add this: pci=routeirq | 01:59 |
| sebsebseb | baboeska: it didn't like his 32bit | 01:59 |
| baboeska | sure sebastien_, but you have to have a 64bit processor... ah k | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: Did you md5sum the ISO I guess not, since your new | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | !md5sum | Shimmy1 | 02:00 |
| ubottu | Shimmy1: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more | 02:00 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: Then boot? | 02:00 |
| Shimmy1 | I forgot to this time, | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: Did you run the CD check on the CD when you have it booted? | 02:00 |
| Shimmy1 | i tried putting Ubuntu on a freakishly old laptop before and checked its hash or whatever | 02:00 |
| Shimmy1 | this time i forgot | 02:00 |
| Drained | Ok well shimmy i wish you luck, i've got to fix my internet issue kudos | 02:00 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: yup | 02:01 |
| durt | Shimmy1, Ubuntu is not kind to really old hardware | 02:01 |
| Shimmy1 | Im a dreamer | 02:01 |
| Shimmy1 | im just discovering technology, kinda | 02:01 |
| Shimmy1 | ive always known how to use it | 02:01 |
| Shimmy1 | but now im kinda figuring out why im able to | 02:02 |
| Shimmy1 | i guess | 02:02 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: I just noticed a new error. Something about APCI being past the age cut-off or something | 02:02 |
| sebsebseb | durt Shimmy1 Later versions of Ubuntu can run on 128MB RAM even, just got to know how to get them running | 02:02 |
| Gnea | Shimmy1: Ubuntu wants a fast CPU and lots of RAM - at least a 1ghz and 256MB (392MB or better, actually) | 02:02 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: It went too fast. | 02:02 |
| thiebaude | sebsebseb, offtopic, but i get my built computer next week | 02:02 |
| DigitalKiwi | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_Athlon_XP_microprocessors 2400+ is one of these, these are not 64 bit, just so everyone knows ;p | 02:02 |
| sebsebseb | thiebaude: your building a computer next week? | 02:02 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: alright - is it freezing up at the same spot again? | 02:02 |
| thiebaude | sebsebseb, a friend of the family | 02:02 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: Unless it is supposed to be taking forever to get past 15%, yes | 02:03 |
| durt | sebsebseb, yes, I've done many cli installs, just saying Gnome's a hog. | 02:03 |
| thiebaude | haven't told me what kind, all i know its dual core | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | durt: 128MB RAM, 512MB or so SWAP already on there, and the desktop CD should boot | 02:03 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: sometimes... is this jaunty? | 02:03 |
| DigitalKiwi | Gnea: well he has a 2ghz and 1 gig of ram, so ubuntu should run, albeit not incredibly fast and might have memory problems without a decent swap... | 02:03 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: Yes | 02:03 |
| Gnea | sebsebseb: it's not going to boot to 128MB | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | Gnea: Hardy can | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | Gnea: as long as what I just said happens | 02:04 |
| Shimmy1 | I kind of want this XP to run linux as a proof of theory? | 02:04 |
| durt | sebsebseb, but the facial twitching from waiting causes people around you to back away. | 02:04 |
| Gnea | sebsebseb: true, but it's all old software, he might as well run a derivative that's more suitable | 02:04 |
| DigitalKiwi | Shimmy1: it should be able to | 02:04 |
| DigitalKiwi | what was the exact error message or don't you know | 02:04 |

| DigitalKiwi | i've never heard of an error like this and google isn't turning up any results :( | 02:06 |

| Mikru | blah | 02:06 |
| DigitalKiwi | sebsebseb: ... | 02:06 |
| edman007 | thanks | 02:06 |
| DigitalKiwi | his cpu is not 64 bit | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | DigitalKiwi: Well in that case why woudn't the 32bit work? | 02:07 |
| Mikru | why would changing it from nv -> nvidia cause "Video mode not supported" | 02:07 |
| DigitalKiwi | maybe he burned the disk wrong? | 02:07 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: That was with Xubuntu though... This system is rather old and limited on resources, which is why I tried that first. I couldn't get it to work though, so I am trying the normal Ubuntu | 02:07 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: okay - what's the cpu/mem? | 02:07 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: 128MB RAM, 255MHz PII | 02:07 |
| InvisibleMan | Err, 355MHz | 02:07 |
| DigitalKiwi | ouch | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: Get hold of the ISO md5sum it, burn the CD a bit slower as well maybe, and do the CD check on the CD to make sure the CD is good, and then hopefuly it works | 02:07 |
| DigitalKiwi | debian! InvisibleMan | 02:08 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: holy ubuntu cd's raining from the sky!! | 02:08 |
| Shimmy1 | how can i check the CD itself instead of the iso | 02:08 |
| DigitalKiwi | doesn't ubuntu have a verify disk option at boot? | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: you can check both | 02:08 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: I was using Puppy Linux before this, since it actually ran on the hardware. Found out it doesn't handle UTF-8 though | 02:08 |
| Shimmy1 | WinMD5Sum doesnt want to work | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: You stil have the ISO on there right? | 02:08 |
| curaloucura | from my ubuntu box , when I do #telnet pop.gmail.com 995 it just time out, so I can't receive e-mails, internet is ok, I'm using dial up, any clue? | 02:08 |
| Shimmy1 | nothing wants to work | 02:08 |
| Shimmy1 | XD | 02:08 |
| thiebaude | DigitalKiwi: check for errors | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: There are other programs for md5sum as well | 02:09 |
| Shimmy1 | ugh | 02:09 |
| unknown | hi, is it possible somehow using some command from terminal to turn off the screen? (something like after few minutes of innactivity) ? | 02:09 |
| Shimmy1 | its working | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: and you need the page to compare the code you get in the program | 02:10 |
| InvisibleMan | DigitalKiwi: I am unsure; were you suggesting I try debian instead? | 02:10 |
| DigitalKiwi | http://getmd5checker.com/ worked well (i think iirc) Shimmy1 | 02:10 |
| Shimmy1 | The Iso checks out | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: have you compared the code? | 02:10 |
| === olsonl_ is now known as lonnie | ||
| Shimmy1 | yes, the codes are exact | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | as to one on the page? | 02:11 |

| Shimmy1 | yes | 02:11 |
| DigitalKiwi | there are a lot of distros lighter than ubuntu that work better than puppy | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: ok now you can check the CD that you have the disk CD on it, or burn a new one | 02:11 |
| baboeska | was there an error message? | 02:11 |
| Shimmy1 | How do i go about checking the CD? | 02:11 |
| === lonnie is now known as fungus | ||
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: boot from it, and one of the options is the CD check | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: boot the computer from it | 02:12 |
| Shimmy1 | Can i do that on THIS computer and not ruin it? | 02:12 |
| InvisibleMan | DigitalKiwi: The laptop has a broken DVD drive, so I have to do installs over the network. Does debian support this? | 02:12 |
| orfeas | hi everyone | 02:12 |
| idefine | I am trying to use the ab command to benchmark my site, is it possible to have it follow a redirect for a url? | 02:12 |
| baboeska | InvisibleMan, that's a generic netboot-pxe install | 02:12 |
| DigitalKiwi | do you have a usb thumb drive? and will it boot from one | 02:12 |
| baboeska | yes debian does, but you have to setup the netboot server first InvisibleMan | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: uhmmm maybe in virtual machine software hmm, but that's a bit silly, you boot the computer from the CD and check it | 02:12 |

| linuxguy2009 | Can anyone walk me through on how to share my DVD burner with my netbook running UNR? | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | Shimmy1: also if you get bad luck with CD's, there are other ways Ubuntu can be installed as well | 02:13 |

| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 02:16 |

| DigitalKiwi | neconide: some people (like me) don't actually want/need/use DEs and function perfectly fine | 02:16 |

| InvisibleMan | *unable | 02:17 |
| InvisibleMan | */tmp/.X11-unix | 02:17 |
| seidos | baboeska: but what if you want a stripped version, then you could do sudo apt-get install for packages slowly just to see if it will run in its most basic form | 02:17 |

| DigitalKiwi | ubuntu isn't that well suited to building a system from the ground up... | 02:18 |
| seidos | durt: ahhhh, thank you | 02:18 |
| baboeska | you'd want gentoo for that maybe | 02:18 |
| DigitalKiwi | gentoo eww, at least use arch or something binary | 02:18 |
| cfedde | DigitalKiwi: you mean compiling from source? | 02:18 |
| schwinn434 | hello everyone | 02:18 |
| DigitalKiwi | (something else binary, arch is binary) | 02:18 |
| baboeska | DigitalKiwi, i don't have much experience beyond ubuntu but i'm interested into moving into a dist that will teach me more behind the scenes, what would you recommend as a logical next step? i played with fedora and found that quiite easy to grasp (with teh gui) | 02:19 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: should be able to: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/LiveCDNetboot | 02:19 |
| nrstott | baboeska: why change? Ubuntu is popular for a reason. | 02:20 |
| cfedde | baboeska: get a good text on command line unix first | 02:20 |
| nrstott | baboeska: it's a myth that ubuntu keeps you from knowing the 'ins and outs' of unix | 02:20 |
| brummbaer | baboeska, if you want a learning curve, go w/ gentoo | 02:20 |
| DigitalKiwi | ubuntu isn't the end all be all of linux distros...a lot of people start on ubuntu then realize that it's not actually what they want and move on | 02:20 |
| Gnea | InvisibleMan: then just toss any ol' iso image in place | 02:20 |
| cfedde | install freebsd and type 'make world' at the command line. | 02:20 |
| nrstott | I started on mandrake years ago | 02:20 |
| neconide | brummbaer: gentoo is hideous | 02:21 |
| nrstott | Ubuntu is the end all be all for me | 02:21 |
| nrstott | I would never go back to Fedora, Mandrake, or any of that crap | 02:21 |
| Gnea | gentoo is for people who enjoy learning how the system works, much like slackware | 02:21 |
| brummbaer | neconide, i agree, but there's your learning curve. :) and sabayon's really a pretty nice rendition that redeems gentoo in my opinion | 02:21 |
| ricardol | hello, i want to try a precompiled kernel, could someone help me? | 02:21 |
| schwinn434 | can I reload a new version of ubuntu over and existing installation of ubuntu? | 02:21 |
| neconide | brummbaer: true. | 02:21 |
| Gnea | if you don't care and just want it to "just work", then Ubuntu or other binary-package based distros are probably more suited for you | 02:21 |
| DigitalKiwi | arch is sort of like gentoo in that you learn a lot about linux as it is from the ground up ... but is more convenient as it is binary instead of source based | 02:22 |
| cfedde | ricardol: if you've installed and are running ubuntu then you already are. | 02:22 |
| seidos | schwinn434: you can use update manager to upgrade | 02:22 |
| durt | schwinn434, absolutely | 02:22 |
| nrstott | What exactly do you guys think ubuntu holds you back from doing | 02:22 |
| schwinn434 | I believe I've tried update manager - with no success | 02:22 |
| baboeska | i was thinking gentoo would be a logical next step, fedora i found very similar to ubuntu, and i've never tried arch linux, not sure how different it is | 02:22 |
| nrstott | you can compile from source on Ubuntu just like any other unix | 02:22 |
| thiebaude | nrstott: for me nothing | 02:22 |
| InvisibleMan | Gnea: I am unsure how livecd does it, but I have had problems booting from an iso over the network before. Since the laptop only has 128MB RAM, it was unable to download the entire iso | 02:22 |

| logos | Hi! I'm trying to isntall the ubuntu 9.04 desktop edition on my Dell inspiron 1545 laptop. But the installer freez up when i select any option after choose the language. I'd tried some parameters cheatcodes like noapci, etc.. But nothing. I also have selected the secure graph mode, and tried to solve this with a tip that suggests the use of "xforcevesa" parameter... I already tested the CD on a "hp" laptop, and its ok. I'm starting to think that the problem | 02:50 |
| logos | is the gnome, since i have runned a live-cd of a distro which uses the kde. Anyone? | 02:50 |
| Ulises54 | ok | 02:50 |
| madman1 | i have no sound again | 02:51 |

| Ulises54 | becouse the old partition is corrupted | 02:55 |
| Ulises54 | this is a way to keep the data and copy paste after creating the new partition | 02:55 |

| alokito | Ulises54, can you mount the partition? | 03:08 |
| Ulises54 | yes | 03:08 |
| alokito | Capso, try nero or something | 03:08 |
| Ulises54 | yes alokito | 03:08 |
| brez | lol | 03:08 |
| alokito | Capso, you should burn it at a slow speed | 03:08 |
| ubunter | StevenMyers: I don't know | 03:09 |
| alokito | Ulises54, don't u have free space on some other partition in the hard disk? | 03:09 |
| Flannel | mattwj2002: The way the quality settings work though means that there's never really a fixed size. So it may be that the best you'll get is 'try it and see' | 03:09 |
| Ulises54 | alokito: I've free space at the same disk | 03:10 |

| mattwj2002 | bummer | 03:10 |

| mattwj2002 | maybe I'll use ffmpeg | 03:11 |
| alokito | Ulises54, search synaptic for a data recovery tool | 03:11 |

| mattwj2002 | thanks | 03:12 |
| mattwj2002 | :) | 03:12 |
| alokito | Capso, is it a cd or dvd? | 03:12 |
| StevenMyers | ubunter: hmm | 03:12 |
| alokito | cd 8x dvd 4x | 03:12 |
| StevenMyers | ubunter: I have port forwarding setup but my IP changes frequently so that knocks that option out | 03:12 |
| StevenMyers | Windstream wants to charge me a butt load of money to have a static IP. | 03:13 |

| alokito | AutoMatriX, yes if u have a separate partition for /home | 03:31 |
| zebastian | ok i have a problem, i downloaded karmic's netbook remix and i checked for the sum, i don't see the right sum has been posted for karmic netbook, however when i go to the hashes page my hash 8f921e001aebc3e98e8e8e7d29ee1dd4 matches the netbook hash for jaunty, is this normal? | 03:33 |
| alokito | AutoMatriX, and if u don't have a separate partition then you can simply link everything in the home directory to the other distro's home directory | 03:33 |
| alokito | simple :) | 03:33 |

| shane2peru | lstarnes: how about if I set the listen ip in the sshd.conf | 04:00 |
| alokito | why does the pointer remains same even after changing the mouse theme in gnome? | 04:00 |
| alokito | in desktop or nautilus | 04:00 |
| rodneymillerpca | Ben64 Correct. However world can see the sites | 04:00 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: having secure passwords and using strong keys is usually a good defense | 04:00 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: i have an m2 card with a usb adapter, i need to format it in a way that ubuntu will recognize it to get the usb writer to write the bootable img for a netbook install | 04:00 |
| greensimian | Hmmm | 04:00 |
| zebastian | right now its in msdos file system | 04:00 |
| Ben64 | rodneymillerpca: what if you go to http://69.69.40.69 | 04:00 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: I could see much more risk involved on a server that is open to public attacks, but a home network, should be a little more secure in general | 04:00 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: I remember there being some way to use elaborate firewall rules to restrict which IPs can access it | 04:01 |
| logos | i'd used the unetbootin to burn my mp3 player/pen drive with a image of kubuntu, but it inst being recognized, anyone imagine why? | 04:01 |
| greensimian | If anyone has any thoughts about my Zotac Mobo predicament, email me j@isimian.com I am out like a trout. Got to get some fud then gym | 04:01 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: there are also techniques such as knocking that require a correct port sequence in order to open the right port | 04:01 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: oh, right, I do have it firewalled too, but I don't think it is restrictive to my specific ip address, that would be optimal | 04:01 |
| rodneymillerpca | Ben64 Same thing | 04:01 |
| Ben64 | rodneymillerpca: ping? | 04:02 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: generally servers need more security than desktop systems as they are bigger targets | 04:02 |
| mobster | is there command so i can get package keys from keyserver automatically? | 04:02 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: how are the ati drivers working? | 04:02 |
| rodneymillerpca | Ben64 I ping fine | 04:03 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: thanks for the info, that is kind of what I figured, I will look a little more at my firewall rules and mess with them to tighten up some loose ends. | 04:03 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: they sucked, so i went to hardy heron and now works perfectly | 04:03 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: lol, are you serious! | 04:03 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8759 may also be useful | 04:03 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: I tried to install the 9.9 version, and they were the pits | 04:03 |
| logos | i'd used the unetbootin to burn my mp3 player/pen drive with a image of kubuntu, but it inst being recognized, anyone imagine why? | 04:03 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: thanks | 04:03 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: I'm not sure what an m2 is | 04:04 |
| rodneymillerpca | Ben64: Odd thing is I had this same setup for 4 years without issue. Now recovering from house fire srestoring everything it goes weird on me | 04:04 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: yes, it sucked and i decided to try hardy and when i did it even had sound, i didnt have to write a script to get sound and the image was better even with compiz enabld | 04:04 |
| Nothing_ | I'm setting up a small linux public computer lab, does anyone know of software that will let users create thir own account w/o admin help? | 04:04 |
| beto | alguien habla español acá? | 04:04 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: google sandisk m2 | 04:04 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: requiring encryption keys, using strong passwords, and disabling insecure things like root logins can definitely help | 04:05 |
| Ben64 | rodneymillerpca: where is the server in relation to you | 04:05 |
| beto | how i make fpe to entry in ubuntu-br? | 04:05 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: ah, yes, I seen that elsewhere about the root logins, I will shut that off to, that was in the sshd.conf file I think | 04:05 |
| ramrebol | I'm trying to use a new command.. I'm did a simbolic link to my ~/bin, and I have mi .bash_profile ok.. How can update my source for use my new command? | 04:05 |
| brodis | need help with gparted. how can i merge 2 unnalocated spaces? | 04:06 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: to format anything I usually use gparted it is visual and pretty easy to use | 04:06 |
| lstarnes | ramrebol: have you added it to your PATH environment variable? | 04:06 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: sudo apt-get install gparted | 04:06 |
| rodneymillerpca | Ben64: I'm on it. Also I have a lappie to left | 04:06 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: can it be done through the terminal somehow? | 04:06 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: it should be formatted already though, | 04:06 |
| xyz | hm | 04:07 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: yes, I'm sure it can, but I haven't messed with formatting things via terminal | 04:07 |
| === xyz is now known as RukusX | ||
| * zebastian gets gparted | 04:07 | |
| JodaX | what do i use as a smtpd ? (easy to setup) | 04:07 |
| hanasaki | how do I change the icon size on the desktop? | 04:07 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: formatting via terminal is something I haven't been willing to mess up in learning, so I have avoided it. :) | 04:07 |
| logos | i'd used the unetbootin to burn my mp3 player/pen drive with a image of kubuntu, but it inst being recognized, anyone imagine why? | 04:07 |
| Ben64 | rodneymillerpca: so you can't access the server running on your own computer? did you try 127.0.0.1? check firewall rules? Apache listening hosts? | 04:07 |
| lstarnes | JodaX: maybe postfix | 04:07 |
| RukusX | Hello! I have a question about filesystems. I have an external hard drive for any kind of files, from docs to mp3 to large files as movies. Its also partition into two parts, so i ahve the option of two different file systems. but whats the best for me ext3 ext4 or reiserFS? | 04:08 |
| RukusX | i tried googling, but i dont understand a thing. becuase of that its making me want to pick ext3 | 04:09 |
| rodneymillerpca | Ben64: 127.0.0.1 brings up first default site, however can't reach others. Firewall check. "Apache listening hosts?" I have no idea how? | 04:09 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: Ext4 is better with bigger files, but the support for it in 9.04 is not 100% stable | 04:09 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: unable to open /dev/sdb unrecognized disk label | 04:09 |
| cdr- | I want to dual boot Ubuntu on a small laptop ssd, how small can I partition and still be comfortable? | 04:09 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: since the kernel they have and that | 04:09 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb: what about reiserFS? | 04:10 |
| JodaX | lstarnes, uhm, not easy to setup, is it ? | 04:10 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: hmm, that doesn't sound good, can it delete anything on it? | 04:10 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: well I gues no file system is 100% stable, but for example there can be a lock up issue in 9.04 when deleting big files | 04:10 |
| zebastian | ze | 04:10 |
| eross | does compiz cause poor performance in windowed opengl games? | 04:10 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: Ubuntu 9.10 will use Ext4 by default :) | 04:10 |
| lstarnes | JodaX: almost all of them require some manual setup | 04:10 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: what disk label should i change it to? there's bsd amiga msdos | 04:10 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: it doesn't need to be mounted to format it though, and you should be able to restore the lable | 04:10 |
| soreau | eross: It depends on which graphics driver you use | 04:11 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: and on your external hard disk as you already know, you choose a file system, I think Ext3 then later on Ext4 | 04:11 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: not sure, I think mdos is most common | 04:11 |
| JodaX | lstarnes, i only need single user usage... | 04:11 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb I can make this partition ext3 and safely upgrade it to ext4 in my understanding. is this correct? | 04:11 |
| zebastian | bsd should be readable by linux right shane2peru | 04:11 |
| lstarnes | JodaX: the same applies in that case | 04:11 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: No don't think so, I think still have to make a new partition for full Ext4 support, since the Ext3 to Ext4 conversion won't be quite good enough as far as I know | 04:11 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: I'm not really sure, I usually use msdos labels to be compatible with windows, and it works with Linux too. | 04:12 |
| JodaX | lstarnes, there any tutorial ? | 04:12 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: make sure to use Ext4 for / in Ubuntu, but you may want to wait untill 9.10 before doing that | 04:12 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: then it will be nice and fast to boot and shut down, and disk check after 23 or so boots | 04:12 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb: well i need to do something right now tho ... | 04:12 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb this is an external hard drive actually | 04:12 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: on the external stick with Ext3 for now | 04:12 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb this is an external hard drive actually on a RAID tho... | 04:13 |
| RukusX | okay | 04:13 |
| sebsebseb | !ext3 | RukusX | 04:13 |
| ubottu | RukusX: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 04:13 |
| foxray | i'm having a little trouble with video playback after installing jaunty on my dell mini 9 netbook, as the video stutters with EXA and UXA acceleration, playback was fine with my 8.04 in the past, any ideas? | 04:13 |
| RukusX | hey really? | 04:13 |
| RukusX | windows to ext3 | 04:13 |
| zebastian | brb | 04:13 |
| RukusX | ok done deal | 04:13 |
| beto | hey i need help in spnish | 04:13 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: yep, but that driver can be a little dodgy | 04:13 |
| RukusX | portability is a must | 04:13 |
| sebsebseb | !es | beto | 04:13 |
| ubottu | beto: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 04:13 |

| aliasp | i wouldnt dual boot on a small laptop or on any box and be comfotable | 04:14 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb i have heard that reiserFS is a good idea too tho... or not? | 04:14 |
| beto | ok gracias man | 04:14 |
| sebsebseb | beto: np | 04:14 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: well that's a bit like saying, I have heard that XFS is a good idea for some partition | 04:14 |
| RukusX | foxray http://www.ubuntumini.com i think | 04:15 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: Resier and XFS and such aren't that used | 04:15 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: and espesailly not with Ubuntu | 04:15 |
| RukusX | k ext3 | 04:15 |
| RukusX | thanks | 04:15 |
| RukusX | :) | 04:15 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: Ubuntu users tend to use Ext3 or Ext4 | 04:15 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb: i doubt due to the limitations of my usb drive i would notice a different between ext3 and ext4 anyways | 04:16 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: yeah probably not, but maybe with the bigger files, but XFS is also good with bigger files, well so they say hmm | 04:17 |
| * zebastian formats m2 ccard with gpated | 04:17 | |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: no driver for Windows to read XFS though as far as I know | 04:17 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: also as far as I know there isn't one yet for reading Ext4 actsualley | 04:17 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: for Windows | 04:17 |
| zebastian | hey how do i mount /deb/sdb1 ¿? | 04:18 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: ^ | 04:18 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: well I think all of this answers it, go with Ext3 | 04:18 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb i'm using fdisk whats the code for ext3 lol | 04:18 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: via commandline? It should automount if you are in gnome or kde or other windows manager | 04:18 |
| GodfatherofEire | Guys, what icon would I replace if I wanted to replace the icon in the main menu? | 04:18 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb its 83 i guess | 04:19 |
| linuxguy2009 | Nautilus wont connect to a nautilus shared folder on my other ubuntu machine but if I manually brwse to "smb://192.168.1.2" The folder and all contents show up. Nautilus broke? | 04:19 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: it says that it's unmounted, how do you mount it on the command line | 04:19 |
| linuxguy2009 | I meant smb://192.168.1.2/Shared | 04:19 |
| aleron6 | does anybody have compiz installed | 04:19 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: you need to make a mount point with: sudo mkdir /media/mydisk | 04:19 |
| sebsebseb | RukusX: If your doing it on the command line, I can't help you | 04:19 |
| semir_k | hat.org | 04:20 |
| aliasp | delete the games icon and add the wine | 04:20 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: and then mount it with: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/mydisk | 04:20 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb no worries | 04:20 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb i got it | 04:20 |

| SJr | How do I get 2.6.31 | 04:22 |
| sebsebseb | SJr: Why do you want it? | 04:23 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb i went for gparted haha | 04:23 |
| SJr | I want to see if it fixes file copying tanking my machine | 04:23 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb: but the command line is fun. i feel like i am in more control | 04:23 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: you're lovely | 04:23 |
| sebsebseb | SJr: file copying hmm that should be alright, what file system did you use? | 04:23 |
| SJr | Ext3 | 04:23 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: just spent a little time learning cli. :) | 04:24 |
| sebsebseb | SJr: with the kernel Ubuntu uses, that shoudn't be an issue, copying files | 04:24 |
| SJr | but anytime I copy files or even read files with SSH or rsync my iowait cranks way up and my machine sucks down. | 04:24 |
| roygbiv | how do you get to the title bar when you're an inattentive luser like me and manage to have it land underneath the top menu bar? | 04:24 |
| sebsebseb | SJr: ,but there's a ppa on luanchpad for a later kernel | 04:24 |
| sebsebseb | launchpad | 04:24 |
| chuong | hi all | 04:24 |
| sebsebseb | SJr: or whatever | 04:24 |

| ubottu | chuong: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 04:25 |
| roygbiv | thanks Out_Cold | 04:25 |
| kprav33n | I am running into issues when doing packages upgrade on my Ubuntu 9.04. | 04:25 |
| kprav33n | The package causing the issue is tzdata. | 04:25 |
| kprav33n | http://pastebin.com/m70a21aa9 | 04:25 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: do you know how to set the ip address in the sshd.config file can I use 192.168.0/24? will that work with ssh? | 04:25 |
| Out_Cold | oh wait.. roygbiv right click the border | 04:25 |
| kprav33n | I turned on the debug in the postinst script. | 04:25 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: use the Listen directive | 04:25 |
| kprav33n | http://pastebin.com/m25b4a750 | 04:25 |
| Out_Cold | and move | 04:25 |
| SJr | where do I find it, sebsebseb | 04:25 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: by default it listens on all available addresses | 04:25 |
| kprav33n | Anyone else face the same issue? | 04:25 |
| kprav33n | Any pointers? | 04:26 |
| sebsebseb | SJr: Google Ubuntu 2.6.30 ppa or something like that and it should come up | 04:26 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: I'm not familiar with listen directives. | 04:26 |
| axle | umm.. when i try to su root it says wrong pass? it should be the same as the first account i made when i installed b y default right? | 04:26 |
| GodfatherofEire | Any ideas where I could find that info if nobody knows exactly which icon it is? | 04:26 |
| Out_Cold | axle, sudo su | 04:26 |
| Out_Cold | root has a scrambled password | 04:26 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: how do i check if the bootable usb works? btw what's wubi? i see it looks like a mswindows exec | 04:27 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: you mean the listen address? | 04:27 |
| lstarnes | Out_Cold: sudo -i, not sudo su | 04:27 |
| axle | thanx!! | 04:27 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: it is | 04:27 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: yes | 04:27 |
| Out_Cold | same thing | 04:27 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: well the installer is | 04:27 |
| lstarnes | Out_Cold: no, it's different | 04:27 |
| sebsebseb | !wubi > zebastian | 04:27 |
| ubottu | zebastian, please see my private message | 04:27 |
| lstarnes | Out_Cold: sudo su starts sudo, su, and a shell, and might not handle the environment properly | 04:27 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: you reboot, and select boot off usb, usually you hit like f10 or f2 or f12 depends on the computer | 04:27 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: It can be useful for trying Ubuntu, but it puts it in a section of Windows, also for long term Ubuntu usage it's better to do a proper partitioned install, altough Wubi installs can be converted, I don't know how though | 04:28 |
| lstarnes | Out_Cold: sudo -i starts sudo and a shell and handles the environment as if root were logging in directly | 04:28 |
| zebastian | i see, so since my mom's laptop which is exactly the same as this one, doesn't have the option to boot from usb, i can simply open the usb drive from windows play wubi and see if tworked?= | 04:28 |
| zebastian | shane2peru: | 04:28 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: so can I plug in 192.168.1.0/24 to accept any connection on my network? or does it have to be a specific address? | 04:28 |
| sebsebseb | !install | zebastian | 04:28 |
| ubottu | zebastian: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 04:28 |
| sebsebseb | !usb | zebastian | 04:28 |
| ubottu | zebastian: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 04:28 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: if you can't do any of that then I guess Wubi, hmm and I wonder if one of those links mention the netboot | 04:28 |
| Out_Cold | i've never had problems with it. and 80% of tutorials say to use sudo su | 04:29 |
| zebastian | so i can use this wubi thing as a livecd for trial sebsebseb? | 04:29 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: by default it uses 0.0.0.0, which listens for any connection going to your system | 04:29 |
| soreau | aleron6: compiz is installed on ubuntu by default | 04:29 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: where you connect to computers together on the LAN, and send the kernel over to the other and stuff, and install, or something like that, I haven't done it myself | 04:29 |
| shane2peru | zebastian: wubi is an installer for windows that will install ubunt on the disk | 04:29 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: right, I see that, but I want to limit it to my network | 04:29 |
| logos | i'd used the unetbootin to burn my mp3 player/pen drive with a image of kubuntu, but it inst being recognized, anyone imagine why? | 04:30 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: Wubi is not like a Live CD, it is similar to a proper partitioned install, except for how the file where it puts Ubuntu is actsauly inside WIndows, and stuff like that | 04:30 |
| Bluey | where can I find the logitech quickcam driver for ubuntu? | 04:30 |
| zebastian | hmm, either theres an explicitly loud performance or some jerk in the neighborhood has carl orf's carmina burana playing really loud | 04:30 |
| lstarnes | shane2peru: that's the firewall's job | 04:30 |
| zebastian | sebsebseb: so if i click on wubi on a windows pc it will automatically install and install only? | 04:30 |
| shane2peru | lstarnes: ok, I see, and I did set that in the firewall, so that should be fine | 04:31 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: try and always stay on topic in here, or at least do interesting off topic :D ,but the o p s might have a go at you anyway | 04:31 |
| zebastian | o p s? | 04:31 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: yes so none of them get highlighted | 04:31 |
| zebastian | sebsebseb: will the UNR install on a laptop? | 04:31 |
| zebastian | non netbook | 04:31 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: The USB install? | 04:32 |
| shane2peru | ok, thanks lstarnes, much appreciated. | 04:32 |
| zebastian | yes | 04:32 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: should do | 04:32 |
| zebastian | ok brb | 04:32 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: Will Ubuntu just install at all is a question though | 04:32 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: How much RAM does the lap top have? | 04:32 |
| haowan | help me | 04:33 |
| zebastian | it will | 04:33 |

| aliasp | hello | 04:33 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: ok | 04:33 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: Thing is with Wubi | 04:33 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: oh nevermind your talkking about USB install now anyway | 04:33 |

| zebastian | sebsebseb: what is the thing with wubi though | 04:34 |
| zebastian | seems like interesting offtopic | 04:34 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: it's not off topic | 04:34 |
| zebastian | ok | 04:34 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: since you were considering using Wubi | 04:34 |
| rich | its not already installed by default? | 04:34 |
| sebsebseb | rich: On the Live CD it is, but it won't be in a default install | 04:35 |
| rich | oky thanks | 04:35 |
| sebsebseb | rich: np | 04:35 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: If Windows messes up badly enough so will Ubuntu/Wubi, and sometimes the boot loaders go wrong for people or whatever, and then they can't boot Windows or Ubuntu, and stuff like that | 04:35 |

| zebastian | sebsebseb: supergrub cd? | 04:36 |
| chuong | i need some help setting up my internet | 04:36 |
| rich | guess i can't stay here if I need to go to root right? | 04:36 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: that can be used for fixing Grub, but the Wubi one will be a bit differnet from the standard one I think | 04:36 |
| sebsebseb | zebastian: or maybe it's not hmm | 04:36 |
| sebsebseb | !details | chuong | 04:36 |
| ubottu | chuong: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 04:36 |
| sebsebseb | rich: I think you already know the answer | 04:37 |
| chuong | I just install ubuntu v9 last night...I am able to connect to the internet but my connection is very slow | 04:37 |
| sebsebseb | rich: oh you said root | 04:37 |
| sebsebseb | rich: not re boot | 04:37 |
| sebsebseb | !sudo | rich | 04:37 |
| ubottu | rich: 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) | 04:37 |
| chuong | it would take like 2-3 min to load a page | 04:37 |
| sebsebseb | !gksu | rich | 04:37 |
| ubottu | rich: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 04:37 |
| sebsebseb | !noroot | rich | 04:38 |
| ubottu | rich: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 04:38 |
| sebsebseb | !root | rich | 04:38 |
| ubottu | rich: 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 | 04:38 |
| chuong | i been monitoring the network history......and the traffic seem to spike alot | 04:38 |
| Flannel | sebsebseb: The next time you send three factoids at someone like that, I'll be removing you. | 04:38 |
| aleron6 | who was it that imed me when i said fdoes anybody know of compiz | 04:38 |
| chuong | like it would say receiving 0kb/s for a long time then go up to 1,000kbs for a min or so then drop back down | 04:38 |
| soreau | aleron6: It was me | 04:39 |
| sebsebseb | Flannel: Fair enough since the flood, and I should use > more maybe | 04:39 |
| chuong | this is an wire connection to a linksys router | 04:39 |
| Flannel | sebsebseb: No, you should try typing. | 04:39 |
| chuong | any idea? | 04:39 |
| Flannel | sebsebseb: You effectively just have him a RTFM. "Here's a bunch of information, hopefully you'll find the answer in there somewhere!" | 04:40 |
| sebsebseb | Flannel: oh I see | 04:40 |
| chx | hi. i can't get NFS exports working. showmount 192.168.1.2 says Hosts on 192.168.1.2: and nothing else /etc/exports is / 192.168.1.0/24(ro) | 04:40 |
| anonymous165r47 | anybody use moovida | 04:40 |

| roygbiv | chx i think you need to use host names with nfs, not ip's | 04:43 |
| tnoy | chx, just checking the obvious, did you restart the NFS daemon? | 04:43 |
| chuong | any idea where i should start researching? | 04:43 |

| roygbiv | that's a bad day all right | 04:44 |
| shane2peru | chx: you can use ip's with nfs | 04:45 |
| shane2peru | roygbiv: ip's can be used with nfs | 04:45 |
| amitti | Yeah, I've been googling for a couple hours.. Looks like I'm also bit by a bug in the current mdadm in LTS.. I built a fresher version from Intrepid and that got me a bit farther, but I'm no MD expert.. | 04:45 |
| roygbiv | shane2peru aaah ok | 04:45 |
| shane2peru | roygbiv: what was your question on nfs? | 04:45 |
| roygbiv | shane2peru it wasn't my question. i responded to chx | 04:46 |
| shane2peru | chx: oh right. :) got confused. | 04:46 |

| worldwarcheese1 | Hi there | 04:50 |
| worldwarcheese1 | How do I reinstall my xserver? | 04:50 |
| willca | chuong | whats up | 04:51 |
| worldwarcheese1 | I think I have a problem and it might be corrupted. | 04:51 |
| aliasp | yeh contact you isp | 04:51 |
| willca | worldwarcheese1 | normally....sudo apt-get remove xorg | 04:51 |
| willca | worldwarcheese1 | then reinstall it, so removing first to try to clean up the cruf...then sudo apt-get install xorg | 04:51 |
| kprav33n | chuong: What seems to be the problem? | 04:51 |
| chuong | willca| i just did a fresh install of ubuntu v9 last nite and i am able to get online but the speed is very slow | 04:51 |
| worldwarcheese1 | willca: Thanks, man. I'll just give that a shot | 04:52 |
| willca | chuong | hwo you connecting? wifi or wired to your ISP? | 04:52 |
| kprav33n | chuong: How did you measure the speed? | 04:52 |
| chuong | willca|wire connection to a linksys router | 04:52 |
| willca | k | 04:52 |
| chuong | willa|i am using comcast cable | 04:52 |
| willca | give me a minute and try this out | 04:52 |
| willca | chuong | look at this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/273228/ | 04:53 |
| willca | chuong | sudo vi /etc/sysctl.conf and then add those at the end | 04:53 |
| aliasp | congrad u lay shunz | 04:53 |
| willca | chuong | then save the file, sudo sysctl -p | 04:54 |
| chuong | willca| another thing i notice is that the connection seem to hang alot...like it would work for one mine then stop then work again | 04:54 |
| willca | i got comcast too | 04:54 |
| willca | adding that makes a difference | 04:54 |
| chuong | let me try really quick | 04:54 |
| AnnonyMouse | hey guy. quick question. what's the difference between the standard ISO & the "alternative"? is it only LVM? (i usually make use of the mini.iso) | 04:55 |
| kprav33n | I have Comcast too. I didn't do any tweaking to kernel TCP/IP stack parameters. | 04:55 |
| kprav33n | I get 12 - 18 Mbps without any issue. | 04:55 |
| * SirStan has comcast @ 15mbit | 04:55 | |
| chuong | I get that too with window | 04:55 |
| Flannel | AnnonyMouse: Desktop ISO is a liveCD. Alternate (and minimal) both use debian-installer (not a liveCD, just an installer). Gives you LVM options, more choices for install, etc. Minimal and Alternate CD gives you the same choices, altCD just comes with packages on the CD (minimal you download during install) | 04:56 |
| SirStan | Sounds like a bad wifi connection | 04:56 |
| aliasp | i was in a chat with comcast about that very same thing | 04:56 |
| SirStan | its comcraptic! | 04:57 |
| aliasp | not 2 worry my friend | 04:57 |
| AnnonyMouse | k. so alt is install only; std is live. thnx. neet to know what to download to demo karmic alpha 6 @ SFD the w/end | 04:57 |
| AnnonyMouse | cheers | 04:57 |
| rich | wow, apparently I can switch users, and come back and still be connected | 04:57 |

| lstarnes | seidos: generally a different license should be used | 04:58 |
| SirStan | seidos: sure | 04:58 |
| lstarnes | seidos: there is the GNU Free Documentation License for non-code works | 04:58 |
| chx | shane2peru: / 192.168.1.0/24(ro,async) does not help... | 04:58 |

| shane2peru | chx: are you running any firewalls? | 04:58 |

| chx | shane2peru: i read that thread | 04:59 |
| chx | shane2peru: no fw | 04:59 |
| shane2peru | chx: you are trying to share root? | 04:59 |
| seidos | lstarnes: I was thinking more about creative works like art | 04:59 |
| chx | yes | 04:59 |
| lstarnes | seidos: wikipedia used that license | 05:00 |
| chx | backin up laptop | 05:00 |
| shane2peru | chx: ok | 05:00 |
| lstarnes | seidos: the creative commons licenses are usually better for art though | 05:00 |

| shane2peru | chx: here are the options I use: (rw,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,sync) | 05:01 |
| willca | brymcon .... can you see your linksys at home via iwconfig interface scan | 05:01 |
| shane2peru | chx: of course rw, would be ro in your case | 05:01 |
| shane2peru | chx: did you run: exportfs -a | 05:01 |
| chx | yes | 05:02 |
| shane2peru | chx: and it is best to restart nfs-kernel-server and portmap | 05:02 |
| chx | did lots | 05:02 |
| shane2peru | chx: also you installed nfs-common on the other box? | 05:02 |
| brymcon | ummm noob i'm not sure about the iwconfig interface scan | 05:02 |
| willca | k | 05:03 |
| brymcon | i can see it and it asks me for a wpa or wpa2 key | 05:03 |
| brodis | is there any way to merge partitions? | 05:03 |
| brymcon | i enter it correctly and it keeps asking me over and over again | 05:03 |
| shane2peru | chx: also to make life easier sometimes it is easier to put a specific ip address to work with for the moment and later change it to the network address | 05:03 |
| willca | brymcon | you using network manager? | 05:03 |
| Faethin | Greetings | 05:03 |

| roygbiv | DJCharlie that seems like it could be a simple config file problem. probably somewhere a config file is using a baud speed as a device name | 05:08 |
| linhhoncuacat_89 | what is yours name ? | 05:08 |
| linhhoncuacat_89 | hey | 05:09 |
| chx | shane2peru: i now try /home 192.168.1.8(ro,async) so that we do not need to deal with root but still showmount shows nothing and we have mount.nfs: mount(2): Input/output error mount.nfs: mount system call failed | 05:09 |
| linhhoncuacat_89 | what's yours name? | 05:09 |
| DJCharlie | roygbiv, i've gone over the /etc/mgetty/voice.conf a few times, can't find it anywhere. | 05:09 |
| rich | <sigh> ok.. now that the hard drive is formatted, I don't see it. I'm guessing I need to mount it? | 05:09 |
| shane2peru | chx: I kept getting that error when I had a firewall running and didn't know it was running | 05:09 |
| linhhoncuacat_89 | boring | 05:09 |
| chx | absolutely no firewall | 05:10 |
| shane2peru | chx: go a little more specific and try a user name, I gotta run it is late here | 05:10 |
| chuong123 | willca|i did that sudo command but it doesnt let me add anything | 05:10 |
| chx | shane2peru: a ... username? | 05:10 |
| chx | shane2peru: how?? | 05:10 |
| seidos | linhhoncuacat_89: this channel is for solving problems, did you have a question regarding ubuntu? | 05:10 |
| roygbiv | DJCharlie wherever in your config file you see 57600, you could try replacing it with "modem" or "tty1" or whatever your modem device should be | 05:10 |
| chuong123 | willca|i scroll to the end and keep hearing beep | 05:10 |
| shane2peru | chx: or a specific folder /home/username/Public or some folder | 05:10 |
| roygbiv | 57600 is an obvious modem speed setting | 05:10 |
| shane2peru | chx: I have never shared a root folder | 05:11 |
| DJCharlie | roygbiv, yes, but there's nothing in the config that matches. | 05:11 |
| chx | shane2peru: i am now sharing /home | 05:11 |
| chx | but let me try /home/chx | 05:11 |
| shane2peru | chx: gotta run, keep plugging away at it you will get it, if all else fails post on the forums on that thread | 05:11 |
| rich | Hi.. do I need to mount a hard drive before using it? | 05:12 |
| willca | chuong123 | just edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file in kedi or gedit and then save it | 05:12 |
| brymcon | no dice | 05:13 |
| chuong123 | willca|u mean the text editor? sorry my first day of using ubuntu | 05:13 |
| brymcon | on the router the only way i can set it to both is choosing wpa2 personal and that didn't work either | 05:13 |
| chuong123 | willca|i tried using the text editor and that would let me add the text but wont let me save | 05:14 |
| willca | chuong123 you need to go into a terminal or konsole | from there sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf | 05:15 |
| willca | brymcon | i would check if there is a new firmware for your box | 05:16 |
| brymcon | ok | 05:16 |

| cryptide | why are most apps in the repos old versions? | 05:25 |
| lstarnes | cryptide: those are the versions that were available when your release of ubuntu was made | 05:26 |
| lstarnes | cryptide: they are still patches regularly to fix bugs | 05:26 |
| sagaci | cryptide: you may have to add repo's to access newer versions, what are you after | 05:26 |
| chuong123 | willca|that seem to help a bit but it seem like the browser is stuck at looking www.sometihng.com for a while before it go to the page | 05:27 |
| dsnyders | Hi all! Any sed experts? I need to convert a web page file with urls into a series of wgets. | 05:27 |
| cryptide | so when a new version ubuntu comes out i'll get access to the latest versions in the add/remove programs? | 05:27 |
| lstarnes | cryptide: they will likely still be behind a couple versions | 05:28 |
| duryodhan | hi .. how do I update to latest version of gnome in ubuntu ? | 05:28 |
| cryptide | lame | 05:28 |
| duryodhan | without upgrading my distribution ? | 05:28 |
| lstarnes | cryptide: ubuntu does that for stability reasons | 05:28 |
| kj4 | duryodhan: install arch instead of ubuntu | 05:29 |
| lstarnes | duryodhan: there may be a PPA for it | 05:29 |
| willca | chuong123 | try rebooting it and see how it goes after that | 05:29 |
| cryptide | lstarnes: i understand, but i'm trying upgrade an unstable program... lol | 05:29 |
| cryptide | this helped: http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ | 05:29 |
| chuong123 | willca|i did reboot after i made the change | 05:29 |
| chuong123 | willca| seem like it stuck at the connecting to www.something.com | 05:30 |
| hadding | What are bluish/purplish files? | 05:30 |
| chuong123 | willca|after it got past that the page load realy fast | 05:30 |
| bastid_raZor | chuong123: can you test to see if it is the router and not ubuntu by plugging directly into the modem? | 05:31 |
| willca | chuong123 | maybe its just that page | 05:31 |
| bastid_raZor | chuong123: it actually sounds more like a dns issue than ubuntu mucking up the routes. | 05:31 |
| chuong123 | willca|been trying multiple page | 05:32 |
| chuong123 | bastid|anyway to fix that? | 05:32 |
| dsnyders | hadding, it depends on your settings. On my system it would be mp3s | 05:32 |
| bastid_raZor | chuong123: test it by going directly to the modem instead of through the router. that step will help determine some things. | 05:32 |
| willca | chuong123 | theres a lot of factors if you use a browser, i suggest doing ftp to test instead | 05:32 |
| obiwan__ | please, what's the java virtual machine packet for 64 bit jaunty? | 05:33 |

| soreau | sylverfox: I hadn't been following along... | 05:47 |
| Sedated | brymcon... how old is your wireless card? | 05:47 |
| soreau | sylverfox: What are you trying to do? | 05:47 |

| soreau | sylverfox: So you just want emerald as your default decorator? | 05:48 |
| sylverfox | yes | 05:48 |
| mobster | should i install 64bit version ubuntu with only 3gb? | 05:48 |
| calmbola | total 80 gigs dsnyders | 05:48 |
| calmbola | i allocated 27 to ubuntu | 05:48 |
| calmbola | 30 including swap | 05:48 |
| leaf-sheep | mobster: 3GB Ram? You'll be fine. | 05:48 |
| RukusX | I have two new filesystem mounts that only have root access. my user must have access to these mounts. How do i set that? | 05:48 |
| calmbola | why is it eating up 19 gigs, i just installed it | 05:48 |
| soreau | sylverfox: Go to ccsm>Window Decoration>Command field and put emerald --replace there | 05:48 |
| Pytlask | A recent update has essentially ruined the wireless on my computer. Is there any way to undo updates from the past ~week without reinstalling everything? | 05:48 |
| leaf-sheep | mobster: Also, it does not matter how much RAM you have. As long as your processor supports 64bit processing. | 05:49 |
| soreau | calmbola: What are you trying to do? | 05:49 |
| calmbola | soreau, i just did a dual boot install - xp/ubuntu 9.04 | 05:49 |
| dsnyders | calmbola, how are you determining that it is using 19gigs? | 05:49 |
| calmbola | i just did df -h and checked memory on ubuntu | 05:49 |
| brymcon | brb going to try disabling security and connecting | 05:49 |
| calmbola | out of 27 gigs allocated to /, only 6 are left | 05:49 |
| dsnyders | calmbola, df is disk free. | 05:49 |
| mobster | leaf-sheep, yeah only 3gb ram and the processor supports it. so i should? | 05:49 |
| calmbola | nothing has really been installed and no files of mine are on here | 05:49 |
| RukusX | sebsebseb: u aorund? | 05:49 |
| mobster | or just stick with 32bit | 05:49 |
| Sedated | brymcon, i just ran into this problem with a laptop a few days ago. it was an old wireless chip that only supported 802.11A and B. with teh router configured for WPA2, i could connect and authenticate but it would never be able to get an IP address. if i siwtched it to WPA, it would connect fine. i also tried a usb wireless G stick and it connected fine. so your options are probably to drop down to WPA, which probably i | 05:49 |
| calmbola | df -h, dsnyders shows size, used, avail | 05:50 |
| leaf-sheep | mobster: I'm using 64bit. Yes, You should. Take the advantage out of the situation. :3 | 05:50 |
| dsnyders | calmbola, du is disk used | 05:50 |
| mobster | k | 05:50 |
| frk2 | 4 | 05:50 |
| Termea | how can I change Shiretoko web browser icon to colorful foxfire icon | 05:50 |
| calmbola | du is disked used for each process, isn't it? | 05:50 |
| soreau | calmbola: Use du -hs / | 05:50 |
| leaf-sheep | calmbola: There are Data Usage | 05:50 |
| nexes | Termea: just right click it, then click the icon and change it | 05:50 |
| calmbola | i solved it | 05:50 |
| calmbola | the trash | 05:50 |
| soreau | calmbola: Use 'du -hs /etc' for example and keep going till you track down the usage. du -hs /var/log etc | 05:51 |
| Termea | thanks | 05:51 |
| calmbola | why doesn't rm * move things to delete them immediately? | 05:51 |
| soreau | calmbola: Great | 05:51 |
| leaf-sheep | calmbola: Err... There are Disk Usage Analyzer in Accessories. Check it out. It'll tell you which folder takes a large portion of data. | 05:51 |
| calmbola | why is it moving stuff to the trash? | 05:51 |
| calmbola | *shakes her fist!!* | 05:51 |
| Pytlask | Is there any way to revert all updates from the past week? One broke all wireless on my computer :( | 05:51 |
| soreau | calmbola: Did you look at what it's putting in the trash? | 05:51 |
| calmbola | yes soreau | 05:51 |
| calmbola | it was a data dump i did | 05:51 |
| soreau | calmbola: What is it? | 05:52 |
| calmbola | but i for sure did rm * | 05:52 |
| soreau | calmbola: Well.. there ya go | 05:52 |
| calmbola | now i have 23 Gigs | 05:52 |
| calmbola | soreau any idea why rm * is putting stuff to trash? | 05:52 |
| === oblique is now known as obliqueee | ||
| dsnyders | calmbola, rm may be aliased to permit oops moments. | 05:52 |
| calmbola | it should permanently delete | 05:52 |
| calmbola | ok well il guess it's not the end of the world | 05:52 |
| calmbola | thank you all very much | 05:52 |
| soreau | calmbola: Use 'sudo rm -rf /blah' to make it permanent | 05:54 |
| soreau | calmbola: And be careful with that. It's actually a good thing it's putting it in the trash | 05:54 |
| dsnyders | Hi all! Any sed experts? I need to extract some urls from a file | 05:54 |

| RukusX | Access must be full | 05:56 |
| brymcon | alright i can't cannot to an unsecured connection? so your saying to set my wireless mode to mixed? | 05:57 |
| dsnyders | RukusX, you may need to look at the chown and chmod commands. | 05:57 |
| Pytlask | Does anyone know of an update in the past week that broke wireless support? | 05:57 |
| RukusX | dsnyders k | 05:58 |
| chuong321 | willca|been looking at the download and it seem like the download hang after a while | 05:58 |
| SnakDoc | Pytlask i have gotten lots recently for bluetooth thats all i have noticed | 05:58 |
| fallenpoet | dsnyders | i might be able to help you. how are the url writen in the file? | 05:58 |
| willca | chuong321 | sounds more like either its comcast alright, or your equipment like cable or router or modem maybe? | 05:59 |
| Pytlask | SnakDoc: Do you know if there is any way to revert updates in the past week? Running from the Live CD, wireless works just fine, but I get ~75% packet loss on an updated machine | 05:59 |
| willca | chuong321 | i complained to comcast once about something like this and they just reset my modem remotely and things got better | 05:59 |
| chuong321 | willca|the thing is it hang for a while then got back up again | 05:59 |
| willca | brymco | sounds like you have a bad router...maybe resetting to factory and then reconfig will help | 05:59 |
| willca | just a suggestion | 05:59 |
| SnakDoc | Pytlask wow thats not good i not sure i will do some searching if no one else here can answer | 06:00 |
| brymcon | i can connect with my windows machine fine | 06:00 |
| chuong321 | willca|i tried downloading from the site with my sister comptuter and it work find | 06:00 |
| dsnyders | fallenpoet, the urls are of the form www.example.com/mp3/somename.mp3 | 06:00 |
| Pytlask | Alright, so anybody else know of a way to roll back updates? Wireless works just fine from a Live CD, but gets ~75% packet loss on an updated machine | 06:00 |

| Pytlask | SnakDoc: I'm not sure. Any idea how I figure that out? | 06:02 |
| willca | chuong321 | what hardware NIC is that | 06:02 |
| dsnyders | fallenpoet, the urls are like 3247397568-audio-player.swf?audioUrl=http://example.com/mp3/Maxine.mp3" | 06:02 |
| Frijolie | I guess it would have to be part of a script so you could loop through each file in the directory | 06:02 |
| SnakDoc | i know you can right click the wireless networks and hit connection info and its listed there | 06:02 |
| SnakDoc | Pytlask i know you can right click the wireless networks and hit connection info and its listed there | 06:03 |

| Pytlask | SnakDoc: ath5k_pci | 06:04 |
| RukusX | dsnyders: i got more work to do | 06:04 |
| dsnyders | RukusX, chown changes the ownership of the files. Chmod changes the permissions. | 06:06 |
| willca | chuong321 | thats a decent hardware...... does sudo netstat -i show any interface errors? | 06:06 |
| willca | chuong321 | switch patch cables ? try that | 06:06 |
| RukusX | dsnyders i am not understanding what i need to do. i just need read/write permissions for two mounted partitions. | 06:06 |

| RukusX | dsnyders file / folder? | 06:11 |
| dsnyders | RukusX, I'm not really an expert with chmod, though. If nobody steps up, you may need to google it. | 06:11 |
| trey__ | i need help | 06:11 |
| RukusX | dsnyders k thanks man | 06:11 |
| Ben64 | wait do what? | 06:11 |
| trey__ | i can't see running programs in the gnome menu bar | 06:12 |
| Ben64 | hmm... RukusX: are the partitions ext3? fat? ntfs? ???? | 06:12 |
| dsnyders | RukusX, I think it can be either. A -R applies chmod recursively. | 06:12 |
| brymcon_ | sedated | you just solved it!!!! thank you!!! thank you!!! only works with b signal.... broadcasted mixed and now i'm talking to you via wifi!!! idk if you got this but i have to thank you again! | 06:12 |
| Pytlask | Does anybody know of a way to revert a specific driver? (I have the Live CD). Wireless is broken (~75% packet loss) with a recent update, but works fine from the live cd. | 06:12 |
| RukusX | dsnyders i found a couple good help files in google now that i know what to look for | 06:12 |
| dsnyders | RukusX, sometimes we're better off with a hint than the actual answer. | 06:13 |
| trey__ | any one | 06:13 |
| * Pytlask begs for help. Next option is reinstalling windows >< Does anybody know of a way to revert a specific driver? (I have the Live CD). Wireless is broken (~75% packet loss) with a recent update, but works fine from the live cd. | 06:14 | |
| Sedated | brymcon_ yup, i see it. thanks | 06:14 |
| trey__ | i need help | 06:15 |
| willca | Pytlask | what driver is that you just put in ? | 06:15 |
| Pytlask | willca: I didn't put in any new driver. I would assume one of the automatic updates through Apt broke it. | 06:15 |
| dsnyders | Pytlask, sorry, I don't know how to revert to a previous version. Perhaps an apt-get remove and apt-get install? | 06:16 |
| SnakDoc | Pytlask here is a few things i found https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/73108 | 06:16 |

| Pytlask | willca: But since ath5k_pci is my wireless driver, my only idea is to try reverting that driver to the version from the Live CD | 06:16 |
| scm422 | Question? Does anyone know if its possible to to select a monitor other then VGA to be set as the primary Monitor? | 06:16 |
| Pytlask | dsnyders: The driver itself doesn't appear to be a package through apt (as far as I can tell. Though it may be contained within a package) | 06:17 |
| trey__ | is any one going to help me | 06:17 |
| dsnyders | scm422, You may need to play with /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually. | 06:17 |
| chuong | willca|did u see anything wrong with the output? | 06:17 |
| dsnyders | Pytlask, I guess it's too much to ask if you have a recent backup :-)? | 06:18 |
| Pytlask | dsnyders: Nope >< | 06:18 |

| willca | chuong | sorry i guess only thing I can think of is changing your patch cable | 06:21 |

| Voodoo | conjurer: thats the model number.. sorry i was afk dealing with my 2yr old lol | 07:25 |
| aaronlborg | cat mylongfile (which is a really long httpd.conf file) | 07:25 |
| Reactor | aaronlborg: maybe the file contains "00" bytes in its beginning? | 07:25 |
| fallenpoet | bhaka | the resolution might be higher then you screen can support | 07:25 |
| aaronlborg | well, i can vim it and see everything | 07:25 |

| prince_jammys | aaronlborg: you can go to the other file, and: :r file (to read the other file's contents into the buffer) | 07:26 |
| myeggo | is there a way for install at least the network driver? | 07:26 |
| myeggo | or a webpage where i can download | 07:27 |

| Reactor | aaronlborg: u wanna merge 2 files? | 07:27 |
| w00k | ActionParsnip : no its not working | 07:27 |
| prince_jammys | aaronlborg: no, i thought you were talking vim. | 07:27 |
| bhaka | fallenpoet: bhaka | the resolution might be higher then you screen can support <- it would still allow me to open a normal terminal with alt+ctrl+F1 | 07:27 |
| ActionParsnip | w00k: well you now have stock amarok settings | 07:28 |
| myeggo | ActionParsnip: it says: *-network: DISABLED | 07:28 |

| kandjar` | something sound really fishy on ubuntu :) security wise; | 08:10 |
| kandjar` | ubuntu will remember that you did sudo :) | 08:11 |
| ActionParsnip | kandjar`: theres a grace period, you can reduce it if you wish | 08:11 |
| kandjar` | so basically if you do sudo once; it asks the pwd; the following usage wont ask for it | 08:11 |
| ActionParsnip | kandjar`: or use sudo -k to end it yourself | 08:11 |
| Total_Oblivion | aha. So remix is usable by desktops too. Sweet! | 08:11 |
| kandjar` | but if an app know that leak; it may use the hole right? | 08:11 |

| Reactor | raimo_: System>Administration>Language support | 08:23 |
| UBestB | LaLeche, grub-install I think | 08:23 |
| raimo_ | Reactor: what about with server installation? | 08:24 |
| LaLeche | UBestB, what if I need to add windows to it? | 08:24 |
| Reactor | raimo_: from tty? | 08:24 |
| Reactor | raimo_: hmmmm | 08:24 |
| UBestB | grub should detect it | 08:24 |

| anvo | UBestB: A dialog windows appears which I leave as is...! | 08:26 |
| RukusX | thanks | 08:26 |
| raimo_ | geirha: it doesn't do anything | 08:26 |
| geirha | raimo_: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/3707 | 08:26 |
| UBestB | think that window is asking about how the csv is set up, because a delimiter should be a comma but sometimes it can be different, so you need to configure that dialog to make sure it knows how to handle the csv file | 08:27 |
| RukusX | ubestb the only thing in there remotely close is ohci1394 . other than that, no ehci_hcd or uhci_hcd | 08:27 |
| UBestB | what does modprobe ehci_hcd do? | 08:28 |
| raimo_ | geirha: thank you very much, I ran locale-gen <localename> and was able to get the locales I needed | 08:28 |
| anvo | UBestB: I know, but what to choose in that window... | 08:28 |
| Bourreau | anvo: are you opening the file by opening gedit and then going to 'Open'? | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | UBestB: that'll need sudo | 08:28 |
| anvo | Bourreau: I did that, too! | 08:28 |
| UBestB | I thought I'd save me RSI as most commands I say need sudo :P | 08:28 |
| RukusX | ubestb ? in simple terms because that works best for me, it loads the capabilities of your usb to be able to take advantage of usb 2.0 speeds on your device | 08:29 |
| lang2000 | I have a webcam in Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0c45:6143 Microdia | 08:29 |
| lang2000 | but camorama did not decet it | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | UBestB: not most, you can damage your system if you run many files with sudo | 08:29 |
| RukusX | and sudo modprobe -r ehci_hcd unloads that module | 08:29 |
| Rei-chan | Does Ubuntu 9.04 have drivers for on-board digitizer pens? | 08:29 |
| Bourreau | anvo: when you go to "Open", can you actually see the file when it's asking you which file to open? | 08:29 |
| krejustin1979 | what's better ubuntu fedora or debian? | 08:29 |
| anvo | Bourreau: Yes, I can! | 08:30 |
| ActionParsnip | krejustin1979: they are all equal | 08:30 |
| RukusX | krejustin1979: for you, because you have to ask, Ubuntu | 08:30 |
| Bourreau | and you're double clicking on it? | 08:30 |
| ActionParsnip | krejustin1979: none are better or best, or we'd all use it | 08:30 |
| anvo | Bourreau: I did that... | 08:30 |
| ActionParsnip | krejustin1979: best is an opinion so can never be concrete | 08:30 |
| Bourreau | and the dialog window that comes up...what does it say? | 08:30 |
| RukusX | krejustin1979: i asked myself that same question about gnome and kde and different flavors of linux before.. and i realized if i had to ask, to go with the one that seemed the most popular among peopel who are coming from windows. | 08:31 |
| ActionParsnip | krejustin1979: there are hundreds of distros other than those 3 | 08:31 |
| RukusX | krejustin1979: check out linux mint too | 08:31 |
| anvo | Bourreau: Just double clicking the file opens an empty CSV file! | 08:31 |
| krejustin1979 | well is fedora ext4? | 08:31 |
| Bourreau | then the file is empty | 08:31 |
| Bourreau | lol | 08:31 |
| anvo | Bourreau: The same happens when I open the file through "Open" dialog! | 08:31 |
| RukusX | anyways i am going to bed. i can;t solve this usb problem tonight. i know i am not the only one. its terrible. | 08:31 |
| krejustin1979 | and i hear debian is fast | 08:31 |
| Bourreau | lol...maybe it's because the file is empty? | 08:32 |
| RukusX | good nite | 08:32 |
| RukusX | thanks anyways | 08:32 |
| ActionParsnip | krejustin1979: try it, see how you like it | 08:32 |
| Bourreau | anvo: as a test, in gedit go to "New" and type whatever you want it it, with commas if you want | 08:32 |
| Bourreau | then click Save and save as test.csv | 08:33 |

| shahdharmit | Myrtti: pLain Ip | 10:04 |
| shahdharmit | Shall i paste the output here? | 10:04 |
| spidla | and since than I dont have a boot splash screen on boot | 10:05 |
| shahdharmit | It's not offline. I know that issue so I always check it when I face some problem | 10:05 |
| Myrtti | shahdharmit: you can try to change your dns nameservers to 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. | 10:05 |
| shneedlwoods | opendns :) | 10:05 |

| indus | :) | 10:06 |
| shahdharmit | Myrtti: And what change that would make? I know it's in Edit Connections in NM, right? | 10:06 |
| indus | shahdharmit: or call the isp to get alternative dns numbers if thats possible | 10:06 |
| ZoeyMarie | dang... no one has any input to my build errors? :( | 10:06 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: what errors? you didnt state the problem | 10:06 |
| Myrtti | shahdharmit: it looks like you're not getting right dns reversal, ie. urls aren't modified to ip addresses, so getting another dns nameserver might help | 10:06 |
| shahdharmit | indus: Nice Idea. I need to find some technical person there. | 10:06 |
| indus | shahdharmit: just dont tell them you using linux, | 10:07 |
| Myrtti | shahdharmit: you can ask your isp or try if opendns servers work - if the opendns ones work you know you've got a problem with dns | 10:07 |
| indus | shahdharmit: they are dumb or dont know about it | 10:07 |
| shahdharmit | Myrtti: Ok. I get same error always-"Address not found". So this is DNS server issue, right? | 10:07 |
| indus | shahdharmit: Myrtti option is good too, opendns servers work too, i tried it,was too slow for me though | 10:08 |

| indus | ZoeyMarie: what exactly are you trying to do? did u finish untaring the package? | 10:15 |
| DJones | rdm_: It mentions one called termiatorx described as a realtime audio synthesizer, I don't know anything about the package, but perhaps somewhere to start looking | 10:15 |
| ZoeyMarie | yeah, it extracted into the right folder. | 10:15 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: then what you want to do now? | 10:15 |
| rdm_ | i find some synth in synaptic | 10:15 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about module | 10:17 |
| ZoeyMarie | it's a logitech quickcam communicate STX... it uses the gpsca-source drivers to run... it's in synaptic... I downloaded the package (the tar.bz2) and then extracted it to the modules folder. the readme gave me those commands, but then, after doing the step with the m-a it comes back with errors in the m-a log viewer thingie. | 10:19 |
| ZoeyMarie | I can paste the readme, or something? | 10:19 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: this webcam should work outof the box, did u check the hardware list | 10:19 |
| aleron6 | does anybody know i can find out which version of alsa im using | 10:20 |
| ZoeyMarie | hardware list? haha | 10:20 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: gspca drivers are built into the kernel as a module which is loaded when it detects a device | 10:20 |

| indus | ZoeyMarie: which application did you use to test the cam? | 10:21 |
| ZoeyMarie | the last it was checked was in nov. 2008... and it said it didn't work in 8.10... maybe it doesn't work in 9.04? | 10:21 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: you always should use latest vrsions for support for latest devices | 10:22 |
| ZoeyMarie | I've been trying sound stuff, honestly (it has a mic in it)... I tried the f-spot thingie, but it said it couldn't detect a camera. | 10:22 |

| === jdb is now known as jdb_ | ||
| aleron6 | the problemn is that the sound is distorted | 10:44 |
| indus | aleron6: what is your pc hardware | 10:44 |
| aleron6 | well most of what i listen to | 10:44 |
| indus | aleron6: did you try removing pulseaudio and tried playing the fileagain? | 10:44 |
| indus | aleron6: also,which version of ubuntu are you on | 10:44 |
| aleron6 | no i dont use pulse audio i use alsa | 10:44 |
| ZoeyMarie | what's the diff between the two? I have ubuntu-studio, and there's pulse on here... | 10:45 |
| indus | aleron6: so is this a laptop? | 10:45 |
| jahoomr | sometime my ubuntu9.04 is very slow | 10:45 |
| aleron6 | no desktop and jaunty | 10:45 |
| indus | !pulseaudio | ZoeyMarie | 10:45 |
| ubottu | ZoeyMarie: PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 10:45 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: its an audio server which uses alsa or whatever as the underlying library to play sound,it has capabilities for multiple audio devices , lets you play multiple streams of audio simultaneously | 10:46 |
| === jdb_ is now known as jdb | ||
| ZoeyMarie | so wouldn't I want that one, since I have an audio-intensive computer? | 10:46 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: itss installed by default | 10:47 |
| ZoeyMarie | that's what I thought. | 10:47 |
| indus | aleron6: so you have removed pulseaudio already? | 10:47 |
| ZoeyMarie | someone said that it might be causing problems for me, too... | 10:47 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: naah it works fine generally | 10:47 |
| indus | ZoeyMarie: its nice | 10:47 |
| aleron6 | i already to you i dont have pulse audio i have alsa | 10:47 |

| pshr_ | any ideas on how to decrypt password in unix ? | 10:54 |
| Sicilia2 | indus: i try brasero k3b and ubuntu burn ,, i try in terminal ,, cdrecord ..... | 10:55 |
| mechdave | aleron6, probably would be best to use a command line player for troubleshooting your problems, try mplayer file_name.mp3 | 10:55 |
| indus | Sicilia2: DOES it burn in windows? | 10:55 |
| Sicilia2 | indus: yes | 10:56 |
| mquin | pshr_: technically you can't decrypt them - the encryption used is one-way. There are brute force methods of determining what the password was, such as http://www.openwall.com/john/ | 10:56 |
| indus | Sicilia2: which version of ubuntu | 10:56 |
| ZoeyMarie | okay. I'm really getting annoyed, and I'm really trying everything that I can... can someone help me figure out why this mic isn't recording? | 10:57 |
| Sicilia2 | indus: not only on ubuntu , kubuntu , suse .. but now i used kubuntu 9.04 | 10:57 |

| DJones | !away | Poker[4w4y] | 11:17 |
| ubottu | Poker[4w4y]: You should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 11:17 |

| pshr_ | mquin, the PM is the hash value for my user name and passwd | 11:18 |

| mquin | pshr_: yeah, my copy of jtr doesn't like that either. I'm not sure what the encyrption type is - MD5 hashes start with $1$, your has $6$, which implies it's something else | 11:22 |

| ActionParsnip | z-tau: not sure. try sudo lshw | less | 11:25 |
| cheater99 | how can i reconfigure my keyboard? i have a laptop with two 'fn' keys. the one on the left annoys me because i keep on mistaking it for ctrl... is there any way to make it work like left ctrl? | 11:25 |

| ActionParsnip | z-tau: sudo lshw -C memory | 11:26 |

| erUSUL | cheater99: if that is not enough... | 11:28 |
| cheater99 | i'm in 'keyboard preferences', the second tab is 'layouts' | 11:28 |
| erUSUL | !keys | cheater99 | 11:28 |
| ubottu | cheater99: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 11:28 |
| cheater99 | is that what you've meant erUSUL ? | 11:28 |
| erUSUL | cheater99: yes; mine is in spanish XD | 11:28 |
| erUSUL | cheater99: maybe the keytouch package can help | 11:28 |
| cheater99 | erUSUL, i'm not trying to change my keyboard layout. the layout is fine. i just want to remap one key. it's not a keyboard shortcut either. | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | z-tau: i sugest you install patebinit, its small and very useful | 11:29 |
| z-tau | ActionParsnip: All i'm actually trying to do is dump all my system memory to a file.. I tried dd if=/dev/core of=/media/blah/core.img (/dev/core is a symlink to /proc/kcore) but it just kept on saving past when i expected it to stop | 11:29 |
| erUSUL | cheater99: yes but in layout options you can change individual keys like bloqmayus windows key etc | 11:29 |
| z-tau | ActionParsnip: the 256 TB size of kcore explains that lol, i just want to be sure i saved all memory to the image file | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | z-tau: i think its /dev/mem not sure | 11:30 |
| ZoeyMarie | wow... it's like no one even sees my typing... maybe I'm a ghost | 11:30 |
| cheater99 | ersul: yes, but it only has options for some of the keys, and doesn't for the 'fn' key | 11:30 |
| z-tau | ActionParsnip: i can't access /dev/mem, doesn't work | 11:30 |

| ActionParsnip | revenge: add the repo to your sources file and import the key, you can then install vbox 3.0 from tere | 12:15 |
| revenge | i did that | 12:15 |
| revenge | but it seems i have something already installed that is conflicting | 12:15 |

| indus | Sicilia2: sorry to see you still have the problem, did you try pasting in the forums? | 12:17 |
| ActionParsnip | deepz: is your ntp server dfined by name or an ip address? | 12:17 |
| deepz | by name | 12:17 |
| revenge | ActionParsnip: ok now i guess i can just install it | 12:17 |
| deepz | ActionParsnip: by name | 12:17 |
| Sicilia2 | indus: never mind :) ,, no i did`t try | 12:17 |
| aiai | indus: what do you meaning for output of the mount? if i make "open" i have "no media in the drive" | 12:17 |
| jatt | work printer with ubuntu? | 12:17 |

| aiai | indus: http://paste.ubuntu.com/273400/ | 12:20 |
| ActionParsnip | deepz: weird, if the ntp server cannot be hit then that could be affecting it. If you have good dns' in that file it should be fine. Try disabling ntp just to test | 12:20 |
| ActionParsnip | revenge: np man | 12:20 |
| ActionParsnip | revenge: that sort of stuff is the big weakness in package systems | 12:21 |

| ActionParsnip | revenge: it willcomplete the command for you and you can run the app | 12:25 |

| levene | I have just upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10. On reboot, the bubble about restricted drivers came up, and I chose to activate NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver version 173, as recommended. However, when I click activate, a dialog box about downloading progress flashes up briefly showing 0%, then a dialog box with an "no entry" icon and no text appears. How can I see what's going wrong? | 12:43 |
| andreas__ | jaunty | 12:43 |
| andreas__ | ActionParsnip : jaunty | 12:43 |
| levene | I have to access the internet through a proxy, so this could be the problem. But I don't know how to fix it. | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: try: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | andreas__: strange, there is an alpha driver 190 which may help | 12:44 |
| jharkins | uit | 12:44 |
| metacube | Xspringies rulez | 12:45 |
| andreas__ | ActionParsnip : Actually I belive it's a driver prob. Pretty sure I can take care of it. Thnx for the advice Action | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip | np bro | 12:45 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: ok, am apt-get upgrading | 12:45 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: oddly, it doesn't work from the gui i get when I click the red important updates arrow - it's as if the system has forgotten my proxy settings | 12:46 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: except for the command line, that is | 12:46 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: its doing the same thing for you :) | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: maybe you have a faulty jockey-gtk | 12:47 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: i know. but it's annoying when things don't just work :( | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: welcome to linux, sometimes its glorious, sometimes its pain | 12:47 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: hm, there are lots of nvidia-glx-[0-9]* - any reason not to choose -180 instead of -173? | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: if jockey recommends it i'd go with it, older cards need lower numbers, spanking new cards need the newer drivers | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: some wont even like the ones on the repos and need the drivers from www.nvidia.com | 12:49 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: ok. i am now convinced that gnome apps (except for firefox, where's it's set manually) aren't respecting the proxy settings | 12:50 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: but they do look good from system->prefs->network proxy | 12:50 |
| levene | and they worked before the upgrade :( | 12:50 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: you can set the proxy system wide with: export http_proxy="http://proxy.server.com:port | 12:51 |

| NerveClasp | Hi! Sorry to interrupt, but I have a question I hope you can help to solve: I have internet connection through eth0 and I share traffic with my roommate by wlan0 wireless connection. the q is: how to manage internet traffic, which I give to my roommate? I managed to lessen it only for 1 Mb/s | 12:51 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: well i have something similar in .bashrc | 12:51 |
| indus | levene: did the upgrade go well? | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: obviously change the address ut you get the idea | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: good enough | 12:51 |
| levene | indus: well, it went :) a few teething problems | 12:52 |
| levene | ActionParsnip: doesn't help with the gui apt-get thing or jockey | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | NerveClasp: what else do you want to do to it? You could always enforce some proxy I guess.. | 12:52 |
| DJones | levene: I saw somebody with a similar problem the other day, they had to change their global proxy settings via System, Preferences, Network Proxy | 12:52 |
| ActionParsnip | levene: hmm, id assume it would use that but i could be wrong | 12:52 |

| Ahtenus | If i want to run a ruby script I've installed through gem should I run it in the regular terminal or is there some special ruby terminal i should use? | 13:25 |
| Ahtenus | Because if i use the regular terminal it just says command not found.. | 13:25 |
| BWARG | ive installed cherokee and mounted a seperate partition as /server | 13:25 |
| BWARG | do i do a change mode on the mounted partition? | 13:25 |
| adalal | sulakshana: looks fine to me, seems like your grub menu is messed up | 13:26 |
| kliklik | What is the file that I can edit and enter the various remote systems I connect to so I dont have to type long username/hosts in the console? | 13:26 |
| sulakshana | adalal: did you get it? | 13:26 |
| adalal | kliklik: the best way is to use opendns :) | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip | BWARG: /etc/fstab probably | 13:26 |
| sulakshana | adalal: i need to remove ubuntu from the 11 gb partition and put it on the 200 gb partition | 13:27 |
| adalal | sulakshana: yeah i got it, but the fdisk looks fine | 13:27 |
| ActionParsnip | kliklik: or add them in /etc/hosts | 13:27 |
| adalal | sulakshana: okay, right now you have 5 partitions... | 13:27 |
| adalal | sulakshana: what partitions do you want? and how big do you want each of them to be? | 13:27 |
| sulakshana | adalal: firstly i wanna be able to run windows .. atleast have the option to in grub ... im gonna get my ass kicked big time if i dont get that to work dude | 13:28 |
| kliklik | adalal, ActionParsnip, I don't mean dns, I already have that one figured, I remember that you can use a simple INI like file in the home directory where you can specify alias, hostname, user, pass for various ftp/ssh sites, as a shortcut. | 13:28 |
| indus | adalal: i guess she can reinstall manually with live cd, its best way to reinstall grub too | 13:29 |
| indus | sulakshana: do one thing boot up a live cd | 13:29 |
| Pici | kliklik: I think you can do this from ~/ssh/.config see man ssh_config for the syntax | 13:29 |
| indus | adalal: first just reinstall grub i suggest so windows appears in menu | 13:29 |
| BWARG | *googling furiously* | 13:29 |
| sulakshana | indus: and.. | 13:29 |
| ActionParsnip | kliklik: you can use /root/.credentials if the thing is a mount action | 13:29 |
| adalal | indus, sulakshana, you can just try reinstalling grup | 13:30 |
| adalal | grub* | 13:30 |
| sulakshana | ok brb | 13:30 |
| indus | sulakshana: i want the output of cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | 13:30 |

| BWARG | what security measures do i take to secure my root partition against intrusion once i set up the /server mount as a the the one publicly available? | 13:31 |
| ActionParsnip | kliklik: you can then use that in the connection as credentials | 13:31 |

| adalal | remoteCTRL1: depending on how loud it is, it's probably just reading it, or it seems like a hardware problem | 13:32 |
| kliklik | ActionParsnip, sorry, no :) I'm trying to find it in the backups, I'm sure I've used it before.. it looks like: [alias]\nhost: example.com\nuser:bla ... | 13:32 |
| indus | remoteCTRL1: install smartmontools from synaptic and run it | 13:32 |

| psinetic | i just got ubuntu (have no idea how to use it). it didn't support my drivers (Nvidia) and one of my friends who isn't on right now told me to get the package from the site, i don't know what type of card i have is, so i just grabbed one (STUPID!!!!), and i went through an hour just to figure out how to install it, back and forth, omg it was annoying, and finally got it....but it's the wrong driver and i'm lost and frustrated :( | 13:33 |
| len | hi is possible to create a default mask to a share and another mask in a sub dir when file is created using samba? | 13:34 |
| indus | remoteCTRL1: once you install it, run it from terminal smartctl -i /dev/whatever | 13:34 |
| mgv1 | hi, how can i copy an dvd? | 13:34 |
| Dr_Willis | psinetic: gee.. for my nvidia cards on ubuntu. I just run that hardware-manager tool.. and click click.. done.. | 13:34 |
| adalal | psinetic: if it's just an nvidia card, it should be under system > administration > hardware drivers | 13:34 |
| mgv1 | can anyone tell me how do i backup the thunderbird addresses history and whether evulution is better than thundirbird? question number two: often my computer don't find the right wireless connection - why is that? | 13:34 |
| psinetic | but how do i get it to go back to normal? | 13:34 |
| BWARG | evolution is better than anything out there | 13:34 |
| psinetic | the screen is all screwed up | 13:34 |
| BWARG | its everything in one | 13:35 |
| ovin08 | ok, so i checked the md5 against the iso i downloaded and everything is fine, yet when i do the Check CD option on the install, it says there is a problem with "1 files" | 13:35 |
| remoteCTRL1 | indus, hmm gotta read the manpages for that to see what it actually does, gimme a few... | 13:35 |
| adalal | psinetic: what exactly have you install so far? | 13:35 |
| adalal | psinetic: you can also try xfix | 13:35 |
| psinetic | on the OS? | 13:35 |
| BWARG | and its integrated into the OS | 13:35 |
| adalal | psinetic: yes | 13:35 |
| CmdPrmtMd | mgv1 those two are just differnt amimals to me. I like thunderbird | 13:35 |
| psinetic | just random apps, nothing serious | 13:35 |
| indus | remoteCTRL1: itsg a HDD monitorin tool | 13:35 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: bad burn, new cd and burn as SLOWLY as you can | 13:35 |
| adalal | psinetic: and no other drivers as such? | 13:35 |
| ovin08 | i have burned it 2 times at 4x :D | 13:36 |
| psinetic | just this one | 13:36 |
| psinetic | the nvidia driver | 13:36 |
| CmdPrmtMd | evolution is great if you need it all | 13:36 |
| adalal | psinetic: where did you download it from? | 13:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: wow, erm bad batch of CDs | 13:36 |
| psinetic | nvidia.com | 13:36 |
| indus | ovin08: try ignoring it and going ahead with the install :) | 13:36 |
| ovin08 | memorex.... | 13:36 |
| adalal | psinetic: was it a deb file? | 13:36 |
| ActionParsnip | psinetic: try gksudo jockey-gtk | 13:36 |
| psinetic | .run file | 13:36 |
| indus | ovin08: or bad cd's sure | 13:36 |
| ovin08 | i get an error that lets me do retry, that gets past 2 errors, but then i get an I/O error and it just boots from the cd... | 13:36 |
| ActionParsnip | adalal: its a packed precompiled program or library | 13:37 |
| ActionParsnip | adalal: its what things are packaged into in debian based systems | 13:37 |
| adalal | ActionParsnip: what are you trying to say? | 13:37 |
| ActionParsnip | adalal: debs have dependancies which need to install to, apt-et manages this for you | 13:37 |
| psinetic | aghhhh!!! i can't even see the "ok" button cuz the screen res is so small | 13:38 |
| indus | any ops here? | 13:38 |
| ikonia | indus: why ? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | adalal: you asked what a deb was, ive now told you | 13:38 |
| adalal | psinetic: well, you can just try sudo apt-get remove <package name> | 13:38 |
| denny | indus: #ubuntu-ops is where they lurk. Why do you need one? | 13:38 |
| indus | nothing, just checking | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | psinetic: you can hold alt and grab a window from anywhere | 13:38 |
| adalal | ActionParsnip: I didn't ask what a deb file was, lol, i asked if what the dude downloaded was a deb file | 13:38 |
| mgv1 | anyone know of an easy way to clone an dvd? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | adalal: "adalal: psinetic: was it a deb file?" you really did | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | oops | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | my bad | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | i suck today | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | need coffee | 13:39 |
| FloodBot2 | ActionParsnip: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 13:39 |
| psinetic | oh awesome!!! no, it was NOT a .deb file, it was a .run file | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | adalal: sorry dude | 13:39 |
| adalal | ActionParsnip: I didn't ask what is a deb file, i asked if what he/she downloaded was a deb file lol.. | 13:39 |
| ovin08 | anyone get an I/O error during install? | 13:40 |
| bazhang | mgv1, k9copy | 13:40 |
| adalal | psinetic: i believe you can still remove it with apt-get | 13:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: do you have a different brand of CD? | 13:40 |
| ovin08 | i used an HP one at first, same issue | 13:40 |
| psinetic | there are two drivers available, one is alreadyin use, so i'm going to see if switching at least resets it then remove hte other one | 13:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: or if you have a usb stick, you can install from that (much faster) | 13:40 |
| adalal | psinetic: sounds good :) | 13:40 |
| ovin08 | yeah, i would prefer that, but the comp isnt too new so i dont think i can book from usb | 13:41 |
| remoteCTRL1 | indus: hmmm... says the disk doesnt support smart | 13:41 |
| ovin08 | or even network | 13:41 |
| remoteCTRL1 | indus: i have to add that it is an scsi disk... | 13:41 |
| psinetic | what's the command to restart the comp? | 13:41 |
| adalal | psinetic: sudo reboot | 13:41 |
| psinetic | hehe, o | 13:41 |
| psinetic | ok** | 13:41 |
| ActionParsnip | psinetic: or: sudo shutdown -r now | 13:41 |
| indus | remoteCTRL1: hmm wierd, i thought all disks today support smart | 13:41 |
| adalal | . | 13:41 |
| indus | remoteCTRL1: what disk is it | 13:42 |
| psinetic | i should like write these down or something | 13:42 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: check the bios, it may support it | 13:42 |
| adalal | psinetic: no... you learn as you go | 13:42 |
| remoteCTRL1 | indus: you mean what brand and model? | 13:42 |
| psinetic | oh ok | 13:42 |

| adalal | :P | 13:43 |
| Kingsy101 | yea so I can run commands like ./pear mage-setup . | 13:43 |
| ikonia | indus: I don't think you can | 13:43 |
| Myrtti | indus: you don't | 13:43 |
| bazhang | indus /msg ubottu info package | 13:43 |
| adalal | psinetic: probably using open source drives nless you enabled the closed source nvidia one | 13:43 |
| psinetic | wel that was the login screen, now it's back to just being small again | 13:43 |
| Myrtti | indus: "aptitude show package" | 13:44 |
| indus | hmm | 13:44 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: burn the image on a different cd drive or systemmaybe | 13:44 |
| ovin08 | ok, thanks | 13:44 |

| Kingsy101 | I think so yea | 13:44 |
| indus | ikonia: bazhang command works | 13:45 |
| Myrtti | indus: no I meant that you don't. Please don't strain the bot with something you can either find out on your pc with aptitude, or using packages.ubuntu.com searhc | 13:45 |
| ovin08 | also, would the Desktop ubuntu be just as good as the Server version if i wanted to set up a weblogic server to make some JEE apps? | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Kingsy101: cool, dont use ./pear if you install it or it will look for pear in the pwd, which it isnt its in $PATH somewhere | 13:45 |
| psinetic | ooooooooomg ok. this is nice, it works now :) | 13:45 |
| indus | Myrtti: ? strain a bot? | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: sure | 13:45 |
| adalal | :) | 13:45 |
| indus | omg | 13:45 |
| ovin08 | great, thanks again | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: you'll just be using resources to run the desktop | 13:45 |
| ovin08 | does the Server version have a GUI, im not the best at command line yet, but im trying | 13:46 |
| bazhang | ovin08, no but you can install one | 13:46 |
| ActionParsnip | ovin08: no the server has no gui, if you want a gui, intall desktop | 13:46 |
| ovin08 | thanks for the info | 13:46 |
| psinetic | ok, now i need a few more things that i just can't find on google, or i'm haveing trouble with. first: msn, i need a good alternate for msn, i got amsn, but it won't login (even thought he pass and user is correct).

| Dr_Willis | rodders: geany is a nice little editor. Not sure if it counts as a full IDE or not.. I never use it for that. | 13:51 |
| rodders | Dr_Willis; rec me another IDE, anjuta opens like an editor too | 13:51 |
| psinetic | i dunno | 13:52 |
| psinetic | lol | 13:52 |

| foxray | still some issues with udevd though, and cups | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | rodders: i dont use any of them so i cant. | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | rodders: geany is a much lighter program then other 'ide's' i imagine its not got as many fancy features. | 13:52 |
| nikos | what would you say is the best prog.. to rip CDs. I use sound juicer, and works fine. | 13:52 |
| rodders | Dr_willis: need only the full Build commands (e.g. make), can compile simple programs | 13:53 |
| psinetic | >_> again with the sound being extremely low. i fixed this before but apparently it didn't stick. | 13:53 |
| Dr_Willis | nikos: most all of them are front ends to the same few command line tools.. so its just a matter of taste. | 13:53 |

| BernieAndErt | so I had 'x.html' under revision, then I deleted it with `rm` ... then I created a new 'x.html'.. which I then did `svn add x.html` on ... which i then did `svn ci` on ... which now it's giving me an error "svn: File already exists: filesystem " | 13:57 |
| BernieAndErt | anyone know how to take care of this? | 13:58 |
| MellowDude | i will try reinstalling flashplayer | 13:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. that was such a typical MS Windows answer/idea by MEllowDude. :) | 13:58 |
| rdm | sorry | 13:58 |
| jrib | BernieAndErt: if you wanted to make svn forget about x.html, you probably want to use svn rm or similar | 13:58 |

| rdm | write wronge | 13:59 |
| Dr_Willis | rdm so yse /server SERVERname perhaps? | 13:59 |
| Blizzerand_ | In linux reinstalling softwares doesn't solve the problem but recreating/rewritting the configuration files may help | 13:59 |

| rdm | i find it in google | 14:00 |

| BernieAndErt | now I'm not sure how to commit these | 14:02 |
| jrib | BernieAndErt: erm, already did *what*? | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis | rdm: xchat supports that.. and has server stuff in the menus you can select/set and some very well done Help Docs. | 14:02 |
| BernieAndErt | I already did 'svn add' to the new files | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis | rdm: so open a new server tab.. and use that /server whatever command | 14:02 |
| rdm | ok | 14:02 |
| jrib | BernieAndErt: so revert | 14:02 |

| jrib | blackxored: I have no experience with textile, just markdown and rst | 14:37 |
| blackxored | jrib, I think rst rocks, but textile/markdown are more transparent for a ruby env | 14:37 |
| nivirla | Does anyone know where the config files for software-properties-gtk are on the default install of ubuntu 9.04? I can't change any properties for automatic update (I've tried rebooting and running it both as regular user, with sudo privileges and with sudo su), but it stays the same with "check for updates: Daily" and all other options not checked, but with a round dot in it instead. Image of it can be seen here: http://bayimg.com/EADJKAAcP | 14:37 |
| jeansch | amigrave: yes, i think. Uses 'xmodmap -pk' to print the list, 'xev' to found the keycode, and 'xmodmap -e "keycode the-code-you-found = XFAudioWhatever"' | 14:38 |
| jrib | blackxored: the markdown site definitely has docs | 14:38 |
| Twittery | Seveas : Any others | 14:38 |
| Seveas | Twittery, google | 14:38 |
| blackxored | jrib, yes I have those, I was wondering if something similar exists for textile, since I think provides me more control over the output | 14:38 |
| IdleOne | Twittery: do you have any ubuntu specific questions? | 14:39 |
| nic1 | how can i use pastebin.com | 14:40 |
| jrib | blackxored: try the references on its wikipedia page | 14:40 |
| IdleOne | nic1: it is pretty self explanatory. paste info, enter name, click send, copy url, post here with a question and wait for answer | 14:41 |
| ikonia | nic1: open it in a url, put text in it and give us the url it generates | 14:41 |
| Pici | blackxored: Or ask in #ruby / #rubylang | 14:41 |
| nic1 | what is the make and model number of your laptop, desktop, or motherboard? how can i check these? | 14:42 |
| IdleOne | !info hardinfo | nic1 | 14:43 |
| ubottu | nic1: hardinfo (source: hardinfo): Displays system information. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.2.3-5ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 221 kB, installed size 648 kB | 14:43 |

| ice_cream | hi, i have about the firefox package -- i appear to have both firefox-3.0 and firefox-3.5 installed, and they appear distinct... in a recent update, 3.0 was upgraded (and my /usr/bin/firefox link stopped pointing to -3.5) --> is it safe to just remove firefox-3.0 ? | 14:51 |
| levene | my weather applet won't update. how can i debug that? | 14:51 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: the game is made by MS so will use their latest stuff, wine is a best attempt so will not run all games | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | !ff35 | ice_cream | 14:51 |
| ubottu | ice_cream: 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 | 14:51 |
| e370 | windows version is set to Xp | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: some games run better in linux than in windows. Doom3 is a good example here | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: try win7 or vista | 14:52 |
| lng | hi! why `date 091815502009` doesn't set the time? | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: have you checked the appdb for comatibility? | 14:52 |
| e370 | i dont know what that is | 14:52 |
| ice_cream | erUSUL, what's your point? | 14:52 |
| e370 | im a noobie lol | 14:53 |
| DJones | !appdb > e370 | 14:53 |
| ubottu | e370, please see my private message | 14:53 |
| bazhang | http://appdb.winehq.org <---- e370 | 14:53 |
| erUSUL | ice_cream: that in jaunty ff35 does not replace ff3 is a separate program that identifies itself as different to. so this (and my /usr/bin/firefox link stopped pointing to -3.5) | 14:53 |
| stafe | server irc.freenode.net | 14:53 |
| Seveas | stafe, you're there :) | 14:53 |
| erUSUL | ice_cream: does not make sense. installing ff35 ddoes not change that simlink | 14:54 |
| bazhang | stafe, you're on it | 14:54 |
| len | erUSUL: is there anyway to create a default mask after a file creation? like 775 or 755. Just like sgid | 14:54 |
| Vtec | Does anyone know why my network manager shows such a low reception to my router? I see other routers in my neighborhood with more reception than mine lol.. | 14:54 |
| levene | len: umask? | 14:54 |
| Pici | len: Did you prefix the command with sudo? | 14:54 |
| ice_cream | it's possible that i manually made firefox point to firefox-3.5 in the past | 14:54 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: so you sit and say linux sucks for games when all you have tried is the default settings and havent consulted the appdb for compatibility, thats really rich | 14:54 |
| erUSUL | ice_cream: and if you did the link manually is normal that the upgrade broke it | 14:54 |
| e370 | lol | 14:54 |
| len | Pici: not always | 14:54 |
| e370 | :D | 14:54 |
| ice_cream | erUSUL, ok, so they're distinct packages and it's ok to remove 3.0 then | 14:54 |
| tobi | hi @ll | 14:54 |
| Pici | len: sorry, too many people with nearly the same nick. | 14:54 |
| IdleOne | ice_cream: yes | 14:54 |
| e370 | vtec: mine says disconnected for wired lan | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: badmouting something with no facts is deplorable to the highest order | 14:55 |
| e370 | so that sucks even more | 14:55 |
| Pici | lng: Did you prefix the command with sudo? | 14:55 |
| ice_cream | erUSUL, k, thx | 14:55 |
| erUSUL | ice_cream: yes. it will remove ubuntu-desktop too i guess | 14:55 |
| * ice_cream nods at IdleOne | 14:55 | |
| ice_cream | lol | 14:55 |
| ice_cream | sec.. | 14:55 |
| erUSUL | ice_cream: just remember to install ubuntu-desktop before doing the dist upgrade | 14:55 |
| IdleOne | ice_cream: if ubuntu-desktop gets removed re-install it to avoid problems upgrading later | 14:55 |
| ice_cream | i dont have that package (ubuntu-desktop) installed =)) | 14:55 |
| Vtec | lol but how does my own router have less reception than some dude in my neighborhood mine shows 21% and my neighbors shows 43% | 14:55 |

| * ice_cream tips his hat | 14:56 | |
| len | levene: umask do that What I asked? | 14:56 |
| Seveas | depends on the router. Choose a different channel, see if you can boost the signal... | 14:56 |
| erUSUL | ice_cream: it is the same you need the ubuntu meta-packages installed to avoid problems | 14:57 |
| Vtec | channel? | 14:57 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: doesnt run | 14:57 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: you could see if it runs in cedega or crossover office ut they are not cost free | 14:57 |

| stone1343 | can anyone tell me specifically how to install a package without its pre-reqs. I tried for hours last night | 14:58 |
| IdleOne | e370: complain to Microsoft for not supporting linux | 14:58 |
| Pici | e370: The best place for Wine support is #winehq, we cannot support it as well as they can. | 14:58 |
| erUSUL | len: yes that is controlled by the umask value | 14:58 |
| ActionParsnip | e370: try playing some old games in XP, it wont work ut will work inlinux nicely | 14:58 |
| chrisw2 | Vtec: Agreed - channels overlap, so pick one that's not close to the channels used by other routers in the area. Also consider that wireless phones, microwave ovens, wireless doorbells etc tend to work on the same band (2.4GHz), and materials such as metals and granite affect signal strength as well. | 14:59 |

| e370 | does the webcam work on the mini 9 with unbuntu netbook | 15:08 |
| erUSUL | myeggo: i think setenv is a spcial command of c-shells | 15:08 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: because if you replace the system glibc, chances are you will have to recompile *everything* | 15:08 |
| stone1343 | i want to install GRAMPS without pulling in Python 2.5 since 2.6 is already installed | 15:08 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: so, hm, I'm not sure why you're doing this but it doesn't sound like a good idea. | 15:08 |
| nh2 | Andy80: you could boot an Ubuntu 9.10 live CD and see if your webcam works there. If it does, you could use one of the newer or backported packages to make it work unter 9.04, too. | 15:08 |
| Dazz | yes... while i dive "make " command it shows that error | 15:08 |
| Pici | stone1343: Theres no problem with having multiple versions of python installed. | 15:08 |
| mgv1 | <bazhang>: i dont understand - i dont have that option | 15:09 |
| bazhang | mgv1, is this xchat? or xchat-gnome | 15:09 |
| senderap | how do i stop 8.04 from auto detecting ntfs partitions. i don't want them in the file browser or desktop. | 15:09 |
| stone1343 | pici, i know, but I've created a bug that the packaging shouldn't require 2.5 | 15:09 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: for what purpose are you trying to build it yourself? because that's not something you should have to do, ever. | 15:09 |
| Pici | stone1343: Are you sure it doesnt? | 15:10 |
| Andy80 | nh2: I've tried to install latest driver from sources and it's the same... | 15:10 |
| Seveas | senderap, remove them from /etc/fstab | 15:10 |
| Dazz | for college project | 15:10 |
| stone1343 | gramps currently requires 2.5, but it works with 2.5 or 2.6, I want to test it | 15:10 |
| senderap | they aren't listed in fstab. first place i looked. | 15:10 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: anyway, I don't think this error is anything ubuntu specific. you should perhaps post to the glibc mailing list :/ | 15:10 |
| stone1343 | pici, does that make sense? | 15:11 |
| nh2 | Andy80: I'm not sure how the webcam architecture works, but for some webcams a newer kernel + newer driver might help | 15:11 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: just.. did you run ./configure before make? :) | 15:11 |
| Dazz | Chousuke: yes | 15:11 |
| nivirla | senderap: open "gconf-editor" go the properties of nautilus and uncheck "media_automount" | 15:11 |
| Dazz | at that stage no error | 15:11 |
| mgv1 | <bazhang>: i didnt knew there were two of them | 15:11 |

| mgv1 | <bazhang>: its xchat in the about | 15:12 |
| Red15 | looking for anyone experienced with installing ubuntu 8.04 on an HP BL460c G6 blade server | 15:12 |
| nh2 | Andy80: USB is nice, too; for me, its often much faster than a CD | 15:12 |
| Dazz | Chousuke: anyways thanks | 15:12 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: maybe you have an incompatible version of mawk or something | 15:12 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: but I'm just guessing :/ | 15:12 |
| stone1343 | pici then I can confirm to the Debian packaging person that it works fine | 15:12 |
| Pici | stone1343: It does, You could download the package and use dpkg --no-force-depends to install | 15:13 |
| Dazz | Chousuke: all the packages are the latest version.... up to date | 15:13 |
| bazhang | mgv1, look at top menus: xchat, view, server,settings, window, help; under Xchat:network list ubuntu servers click edit | 15:13 |
| senderap | that gconf thing will work but is there a way to be selective on what mounts and what doesn't? | 15:13 |
| Chousuke | Dazz: Oh well. I'm afraid you're on your own :) | 15:13 |

| Kingsy101 | Out_Cold - ^^^ | 16:36 |

| MK13 | what is the effect where people have a window that flips over to become another? | 16:55 |
| yadu` | xmnt, it seems the issues are with mysql-server-5.0 | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | MK13: You mean the window has a different program on the 'back side' ? | 16:56 |
| utlo | I'm doing some work where we are remotlly detecting security vulnerblites in out of date packages. In doing demonstrations I want to have a machine set up with old packages, but all our machines right now are up to date | 16:56 |
| MK13 | Dr_Willis, exactly | 16:56 |
| utlo | Is their a way to roll back packages easily with apt or do I have to install things manually? | 16:56 |
| erUSUL | !pinning | utlo | 16:57 |
| ubottu | utlo: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 16:57 |
| duffydack | Dont suppose anyone would know why my personal lamp servers mysql (v5) would not accept a full import of a database but my free profusehost accounts mysql can. It gives "duplicate" errors and only imports half the db. There are no dupes of course. | 16:57 |
| utlo | cool thanks | 16:58 |
| genii-around | utlo: If the previous version is still available from result of: apt-cache policy <packagename> then you can explicitly install it by version with something like sudo apt-get install packagename=some-version-as-reported-by-search | 16:58 |

| cq | argh, I have an old ubuntu server where everything is in german... how do I set it to english, using the console? I only have console access... | 17:00 |
| ikonia | dassouki: what type of mail store are you using, pop3/imap etc etc | 17:00 |
| c0n | quit | 17:00 |

| nh2 | dassouki: if your moving from linux box to linux box, that should be fine | 17:01 |
| ikonia | dassouki: you should just be able to backup your mail file then, pop3 downloads the mail to your local machine and stores in a flat file | 17:01 |

| zaggynl | how do I safely remove it? | 17:26 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: should be fine, set your swappines from 3 to 5 and it'll go much nicer | 17:26 |

| pete_ | hehe | 17:27 |
| bakefy | I just installed 9.04, and I was trying to set up a raid (software) I have dmraid, but it doesnt see it | 17:28 |
| pete_ | # cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness | 17:28 |
| pete_ | returns nothing? | 17:28 |
| bakefy | gparted saw the raid in 8.04, but would not net me use it | 17:28 |
| bakefy | let* | 17:28 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: gksudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf | 17:29 |
| pete_ | ActionParsnip, it says its at 60 | 17:29 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: 60 is terribly high for your ram amount | 17:29 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: at the end add: vm.swappiness=1 | 17:29 |
| bakefy | anyone here available to help me with some dmraid troubleshooting? | 17:29 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: save the file, close gedit then run: sudo sysctl vm.swappiness=1 | 17:30 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: saves having to reboot | 17:30 |

| pete_ | burn the disk at the slowest speed possible | 17:35 |
| bakefy | pete, thats what I did. but it wont see it | 17:35 |
| pete_ | hum... | 17:35 |
| bakefy | pete burning it slow is a thought | 17:36 |
| bakefy | pete, might try that | 17:36 |

| ActionParsnip | pete_: you could install a benchmarker | 17:42 |
| fccf | Pistache: use gksudo not sudo to run/install netbeans | 17:42 |
| kd8JHC | seidos: okay, that's cool. but i'm not going to waste my time helping someone just so they can play games | 17:42 |

| chris___ | hey. i am using 9.04 and, after mounting a harddrive, i changed the settings for "mount point" and "file system" for my windows harddrive | 17:49 |
| egc | i was forgetting my ssh session was still up | 17:49 |
| egc | thanks | 17:49 |
| chris___ | and now it won't mount. any ideas on how to undo that? | 17:49 |

| ActionParsnip | markl_: its still available | 17:49 |

| pete_ | ? | 17:50 |
| fbianconi | jasonlife: as root (ie with sudo) | 17:50 |
| Dr_Willis | chris___: i either mount via fstab .. or just change the Label.. ive learned to stay away from those 'properties' settings :) | 17:50 |
| jasonlife | fbianconi: you rock!!! thanks.. | 17:51 |
| pete_ | hey chris, i know a really easy way | 17:51 |
| pete_ | tell me what your mount point is | 17:51 |
| seidos | markl_: maybe because empathy has more potential | 17:51 |
| jasonlife | fbianconi: I can use ssh now.. :D | 17:51 |
| seidos | markl_: just a guess | 17:51 |
| chris___ | pete_: i'm not sure what the mount point is | 17:51 |
| ActionParsnip | markl_: its installed as well | 17:51 |
| Dr_Willis | chris___: see the output of 'mount' command | 17:51 |
| markl_ | more potential but empathy sucks a lot more at the moment | 17:52 |
| fccf | kd8JHC: how's this http://paste.ubuntu.com/273616/ perhaps I'll send you some junk mail | 17:52 |

| seidos | markl_: the point of the non LTS releases is to improve ubuntu... | 17:52 |
| markl_ | seidos: right - which is why they need to get rid of empathy ASAP | 17:53 |

| * seidos is going to switch to empathy | 17:55 | |
| seidos | fccf: I'll look for a topic re: empathy vs. pidgin | 17:56 |
| jordo2323 | erUSUL, The lastfm plugin will scrobble, but will not stream music..... | 17:56 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: e.g. if you go to https://launchpad.net/~siretart/+archive/ppa you will see a link to a key, that leads to a text file | 17:56 |
| chris___ | pete_: got it mounted. do i have to do this every time now? | 17:57 |
| erUSUL | jordo2323: well i stop using lastfm when they start charging for it | 17:57 |
| pete_ | chris___, yea unless you learn how to use /etc/fstab | 17:57 |
| pete_ | which is complicated. | 17:57 |
| pete_ | i use do it the way I showed you | 17:57 |

| chris___ | i just clicked the file under "places" | 17:58 |
| pete_ | chris___, however | 17:58 |

| pete_ | ok, someone please tell me how to run a terminal command on login??????? | 17:59 |
| fbianconi | Skarpz: can you try your keyboard in other PC? or have you? | 18:00 |
| chris___ | mkay, thanks pete | 18:00 |
| mbeierl1 | pete_: I presume you mean when you start the Gnome session, not every time you start a terminal, right? | 18:00 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: make an entry for it in startup entries, mark it to run in terminal in system -> prefs -> startup apps | 18:00 |
| bad_cables | i already have libdvdcss3 installed and i still cant play DVDs | 18:00 |
| gwallace | I was running 9.04 and noticed a couple icons missing from my panel. The one I really need is the network connection icon, as I am on wireless. I re-installed network manager, but still no icon in the panel. Any ideas? | 18:01 |
| Skarpz | fbianconi: I am using gnome now and it works fine | 18:01 |
| bad_cables | why is it so hard to use the computer to do what it is supposed to do in Ubuntu? | 18:01 |
| Skarpz | fbianconi: just when using kde the keyboard doesn't work | 18:01 |
| bro | seidos: got the ppa key for empathy? | 18:01 |
| pete_ | ActionParsnip, where is startup entries | 18:01 |
| bad_cables | how do i play a dvd? | 18:01 |
| dr_ | wiped out network-manager cannot connect anymore how do i get it back now? maybe some1 can help? | 18:01 |
| fbianconi | weird | 18:02 |
| chris___ | also, does anyone know why Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't restart X for me? | 18:02 |
| chris___ | i know it used to on past distros | 18:02 |
| ikonia | chris___: that key sequence was removed | 18:02 |
| ikonia | !dontzap | 18:02 |
| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 18:02 |
| pete_ | i dont have system > preferences | 18:02 |
| gwallace | Chris__ that was disabled in 9.04 | 18:02 |
| gwallace | you need to install dontzap | 18:02 |
| IP-v6 | I have a question: Can i use exaile player on Kubuntu ? | 18:02 |

| sayanriju | IP-v6, sure | 18:03 |
| bad_cables | i have version 3 of that | 18:03 |
| seidos | chris___: you have to reenable cntrl-alt-backspace, I think it was disabled by default | 18:03 |
| pete_ | ActionParsnip, how do I add that key?? | 18:04 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: then you will need a script that is referenced by the Exec= line of a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications | 18:04 |
| bro | seidos, ok, i got it now, if you need it... tell me | 18:04 |
| ActionParsnip | pete_: you can then create a symbolic link to the desktop file in ~/.config/autostart | 18:04 |
| pete_ | ActionParsnip, wait | 18:04 |
| pete_ | ActionParsnip, im talking about how to add the key for that repo | 18:04 |
| pete_ | so i can dl those drivers | 18:04 |

| geekback | just select another option from there like alsa or oss.. | 18:26 |

| pete_ | i told her, the only progs u use are pidgin and firefox | 18:57 |
| sebsebseb | fool_: maybe your issues are a bit differnet from the standard ones | 18:57 |
| pete_ | and they are linux programs mainly! | 18:57 |

| CBro2007 | Hi guys.. I am a newbie but I was wondering if it was possible to install Ubuntu on an external USB drive? | 18:58 |
| fool_ | sebsebseb: since i see so many post and the bug report full of regresion problems i didn't upgrade | 18:58 |
| fool_ | :/ | 18:58 |
| sebsebseb | fool_: also they say Intel graphics cards suck, Nivida has rather good Linux support | 18:58 |
| TLF | hello | 18:58 |
| pete_ | jimmy51_, she actually said why is the computer running good | 18:58 |
| jimmy51_ | hehe | 18:58 |
| pete_ | lol. | 18:58 |
| Myrtti | !usb > CBro2007 | 18:58 |
| ubottu | CBro2007, please see my private message | 18:58 |
| TLF | are there any methods to update from debian to ubuntu? | 18:58 |
| Myrtti | TLF: no | 18:58 |
| fool_ | sebsebseb: i had nvidia , ati before | 18:58 |
| sebsebseb | TLF: Debian and Ubuntu aren't the same | 18:58 |
| sebsebseb | fool_: yeah ATI like Intel has issues as well | 18:59 |
| Barnabas | preetam, look here for help on synaptic https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 18:59 |
| fool_ | sebsebseb: the ironic thing is, on this new laptop i specifically get an intel graphics thinking i'd be in linux home land | 18:59 |
| TLF | sebsebseb: I know | 18:59 |
| fool_ | and then bam | 18:59 |
| fool_ | lol | 18:59 |
| TLF | sebsebseb: but Ubuntu is based on debian | 18:59 |
| CBro2007 | Myrtti: so wchih one would I need? | 18:59 |
| thiebaude | TLF, yea, but its not debian | 18:59 |
| jimmy51_ | pete_: hehe. my wife asked the other day why her computer hasn't "slowed down" like her sisters did. | 18:59 |
| TLF | sebsebseb: so perhaps it was some method on keeping my files (those in $HOME) | 18:59 |
| Gnea | TLF: only in the sense of the package management system, that's it, nothing more | 18:59 |
| CBro2007 | Myrtti: I am not sure how it actually works when you install Ubuntu on an external USB drive | 19:00 |
| zadmalck | hello all | 19:00 |
| pete_ | jimmy51_, yea, you know how vista asks you 100 times before you open each program, yea i couldn't take that anymore | 19:00 |
| pete_ | jimmy51_, not to mention the battery life is like about 5x better. | 19:00 |
| sebsebseb | TLF: You can have a seperate home partition, and then easilley switch between distros yes | 19:00 |
| TLF | so, I need to do a backup of my files in another partition? | 19:00 |
| TLF | sebsebseb: ok, then. Thank you very much :) | 19:00 |
| sebsebseb | !home | TLF | 19:00 |
| ubottu | TLF: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 19:00 |
| Myrtti | CBro2007: in theory you should be able to install to an usb drive without problems - though you'll need the usb drive to be connected to the computer always when you boot | 19:01 |
| sebsebseb | TLF: that's for Ubuntu I guess, but could still be relivant for Debian I guess, also you could ask in #debian for help with that | 19:01 |
| Myrtti | CBro2007: I don't have personal experience, so I don't know the details | 19:01 |
| TLF | thank you very much | 19:01 |
| preetam | i don't find flashplugin-installer in the synaptic package manager | 19:02 |
| CBro2007 | Myrtti: does this mean that if I wanted to boot my PC I would have to have the external Hdd always attached to it | 19:02 |
| Gnea | CBro2007: as I understand it, ubuntu will just see the external drive as another hard drive on the system - just need to make sure it can be booted as a boot device | 19:02 |
| Myrtti | CBro2007: most likely yes | 19:02 |
| pete_ | does it really matter if I have a seperate /home directory????? | 19:02 |
| sebsebseb | TLF: np and I didn't need to put the two I guess | 19:02 |
| CBro2007 | Myrtti: the thing is that I have a Mac laptop with not enough disk space | 19:02 |
| Gnea | pete_: it helps, but it's not required | 19:02 |
| sebsebseb | pete_: depends on what you want to do, can be useful if you don't have for example an external hard disk to back stuff up on to | 19:03 |
| thiebaude | pete_, you dont have to | 19:03 |
| pete_ | when I go to upgrade to the next distro | 19:03 |
| pete_ | will it be better? | 19:03 |
| sebsebseb | pete_: or if you don't want to have to move data into another partition, when you want to sort out a partition set up | 19:03 |
| CBro2007 | so instead of buying a new desktop machine I wanted to get an external hdd and just install Ubuntu on it so that everytime I need it I can attach to my Mac and off I go | 19:03 |
| Gnea | pete_: in general, yes | 19:03 |
| CBro2007 | is that even possible? | 19:03 |

| JohannesSM64 | how to fix? | 19:04 |
| CBro2007 | yeah it can but I don't want to change the default behaviour of it to boot from the external dirve all the time | 19:05 |
| === Scumpica_26 is now known as Some_Guy | ||
| sebsebseb | pete_: set it up so you got Ext4? nice and fast to boot and that? if so I guess then it's just upgrade and things are fine | 19:05 |
| Gnea | CBro2007: then you don't want to install ubuntu to an external hdd | 19:05 |

| Gnea | CBro2007: that might be a better idea, if you've got the space | 19:06 |

| pete_ | but thanks. | 19:07 |
| Gnea | pete_: sure, just make sure it's ext2/3/4 | 19:07 |
| sebsebseb | pete_: ,but if you can back up your stuff else where anyway for example an external hard disk, a seperate Home isn't really needed | 19:07 |

| Myrtti | stevecoh1: does your script start with #!/bin/bash | 19:09 |

| Jemt | Hello. I'm currently using Debian, but considering switching to Ubuntu for a while, to test it out. I might buy the most recent MacBook Pro tomorrow - will that work well with Ubuntu 9.04 ? I've been reading at the MacBook section on ubuntu.com, but the most recent version is not documented (at least I don't think the 5th generation is the latest model). | 19:13 |

| r3l1c | if you nmap your ip from outside your network does it show an open ssh port? | 19:14 |
| ani_ | but not from outside | 19:14 |
| ani_ | yes | 19:14 |
| ani_ | it says permission denied | 19:14 |
| Jemt | If it is not documented, I might as well do it, when installing Ubuntu on it - but I need to make sure that Ubuntu will most likely work on the new computer, before using a whole lot of money on it | 19:14 |
| ani_ | I even insert the password | 19:14 |

| dwatkins | levene: I don't know then, sorry | 19:44 |
| r3l1c | diogo_79: then unlock - > click on manage groups | 19:44 |

(I know what to pass to vlc but don't know how to use the date and check for the file, and I'd like to have an icon rather than use the console) | 19:44 |
| r3l1c | diogo_79: find vboxusers -< click preferences - add your user to the group | 19:45 |
| ChronicBlazer | Promille, not sure, id check it out | 19:45 |

| ubottu | something132: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents | 19:46 |
| dwatkins | something132: those are where synaptic gets installfiles from (automatically) | 19:46 |
| dwatkins | thanks Pici | 19:47 |
| thopiekar1 | hi | 19:47 |
| strange | pici any idea on my sources thing? | 19:47 |
| something132 | !Packages, | 19:47 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about Packages, | 19:47 |
| carrera | I installed Ubuntu amd64 on a box. Does that mean it´s a 64-bit architecture? | 19:47 |
| something132 | !Packages | 19:47 |
| ubottu | You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 19:47 |
| barry1 | picochu: thanks for the advice. It's something I will learn with time. any "ready-made" solution for now? (yes I'm rather impatient I appologise) | 19:47 |
| ChronicBlazer | carrera, yes | 19:47 |
| Pici | strange: Why can't you use the command three times? | 19:48 |
| thopiekar1 | does anyone know how to remove one of my comments on launchpad but dunno how :/ | 19:48 |
| ChronicBlazer | carrera, you already installed ubuntu x64 ? | 19:48 |
| picochu | barry1: this is too trivial to be an application, and too specific. Another alternative would be to get someone to write a simple script for you | 19:48 |
| ChronicBlazer | barry1, whats the problem!? | 19:49 |
| barry1 | picochu: understandable. is there a bash irc room? | 19:49 |
| Pici | barry1: #bash | 19:49 |
| seidos | anyone have experience executing perl scripts from a shell? | 19:49 |
| strange | Pici: i forgot the command so the others are already ran | 19:49 |
| picochu | barry1: there should be one somewhere | 19:50 |
| seidos | hmmm shell scripts != perl scripts | 19:50 |
| shane2peru | seidos: ?? I think perl is different then shell scripts aren't they? | 19:51 |
| Pici | strange: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys | 19:51 |
| Pici | strange: followed by the keyid | 19:51 |
| strange | thank you | 19:51 |
| barry1 | ChronicBlazer: I would like to run a command (run vlc with some options but have the "filename" change depending on date and append 'n' if the file exists eg 18092009-1 18092009-2 etc...) any ideas? if not I'll head over to #bash | 19:51 |
| strange | Pici: oh wait i already did those | 19:51 |
| dwatkins | perl scripts are just textfiles with #!/usr/bin/perl in the first line, assuming they're exectuable you can call them by name, seidos | 19:51 |
| strange | Pici: i just need the apt-key add - part | 19:52 |
| seidos | shane2peru: looks that way. I wanted to see if I could execute a perl script in a shell though | 19:52 |
| ChronicBlazer | barry1, #bash | 19:52 |
| seidos | dwatkins: I will try | 19:52 |
| ChronicBlazer | barry1, GL | 19:52 |
| dwatkins | well, I say "just", but obviously there's more to it than that, seidos | 19:52 |
| barry1 | Thanks all | 19:52 |
| shane2peru | seidos: hmm, not sure about that. | 19:52 |
| Pici | strange: You don't need that with the command I gave you | 19:52 |
| dwatkins | seidos: if you're in the same directory, you'll need to call the script using ./scriptname, since the current working directory is unlikely to be in the path | 19:52 |
| thopiekar1 | so isn't it possible to remove a comment on launchpad? | 19:53 |
| danielo | hi | 19:54 |
| Pici | thopiekar1: I don't believe so, but you could ask in #launchpad if you really need it removed I guess. | 19:54 |

| dwatkins | something132: from the commandline do "sudo apt-get install unetbootin" then run it from the system->administration menu, I think it'ws called "USB startup disk creator" | 19:55 |

| levene | seidos: chmod +x scriptname - and make sure the first line is #!/usr/bin/env perl | 19:56 |
| Pici | seidos: ./scriptname will only work if the first line of the script is #!/path/to/perl | 19:56 |
| genii-around | dwatkins: unetbootin is for Windows | 19:56 |
| something132 | E: Couldn't find package usb-creator | 19:56 |
| dwatkins | oh dang, sorry genii-around & something132 | 19:56 |
| seidos | levene, Pici: it probably isn't on this particular script, but I'll double check and try to remember for next time | 19:56 |
| dwatkins | that's wierd, as I can start it from the commandline by running "unetbootin" *shrugs* | 19:57 |

| shane2peru | dwatkins: thanks | 19:58 |
| genii-around | something132: usb-creator is in the main repos. Did you first do something like: sudo apt-get update | 19:58 |

| something132 | ok so what should i do? | 19:59 |
| dwatkins | something132 & genii-around - what I didn't realise until now, is that there are two seperate packages, unetbootin and usb-creator, I imagine it would be easiest for something132 to install usb-creator, not unetbootin | 19:59 |
| something132 | neither work | 19:59 |
| ChronicBlazer | something132, what are you trying to do | 19:59 |
| something132 | ok | 19:59 |
| something132 | well | 19:59 |
| shane2peru | something132: after opening Software Sources, you need to check the box on the UButntu software tab that says universe | 20:00 |
| kathie | I need some help.. I installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my HP Pavilion dv9715nr Notebook. The video card is a GeForce Go 7150m. When I first started up the screen was 640 x 480 so I went into System/ Administration/ Hardware Drivers and activated the Nvidia driver (version 180) [recommended] But when I restarted my screen went black, and I had to revert back. Any ideas to fix this? | 20:00 |
| shane2peru | something132: then click on close, it will ask to reload, reload and then you should be able to install unetbootin | 20:00 |

| ChronicBlazer | kathie, ok | 20:02 |
| dwatkins | I don't know, something132 - I barely use windows, but it sounds like you'd need to use its advanced partitioning tool in order not to destroy your existing ubuntu partition (assuming that's what you have) and that you might also need to resize the partition if ubuntu takes up the whole disk, something132 | 20:03 |

| xerox1 | hi, sometime ago i have read an article about "timevault" a programm similar to "timemachine" on mac; are there comparable apps? (timevault doesn't seem to evolve) | 20:03 |
| dwatkins | I guess you would need to boot from USB or CD in order to resize a Ubuntu partition, though, something132 | 20:03 |
| alexandra | Every time I boot ubuntu check disk starts and it stops at 3 percent, I then hit ctrl+alt+del and it proceeds to boot normally.Why does this happen and why can't I turn off the disk check ( I tried with the tune2fs -c 0 /dev/sda3 but I get an error message saying tune2fs -c 50 -i 2m /dev/hda1) | 20:03 |

| ChronicBlazer | kathie, lsmod | grep nvidia | 20:04 |
| something132 | :| | 20:04 |
| dwatkins | something132: windoze will do the partitioning for you (assuming it doesn't just delete your ubuntu partition), it sounds like you need to resize your ubuntu partition, so there's room for windoze | 20:05 |
| kathie | ChronicBlazer: Ok | 20:05 |
| ChronicBlazer | kathie, and, lspci | grep VGA | 20:05 |
| ChronicBlazer | kathie, use. pastebin.org | 20:05 |
| Doug___ | something132: Kinda come in at the middle of this, but as I understand it you need to resize a partition non-destructively. In that case you could try the gparted livecd. | 20:05 |
| linny | computerman: sounds like graphics card drivers | 20:05 |
| something132 | yeah i got gparted | 20:05 |
| Doug___ | something132: OK, and it didn't work? | 20:05 |

| Doug___ | something132: Oh yes. :) | 20:07 |
| dwatkins | something132: the install ISO is a live CD and will work if you put it on a USB stick with unetbootin/usb-creator | 20:07 |

| trism | sidney: well in jaunty they moved the shutdown stuff to the fast user switch applet...that may be the problem | 20:17 |
| Doug___ | something132: OK, if the pendrive is plugged into the computer you can find it's device block using "sudo fdisk -l" from the CLI | 20:17 |
| rofldsa | No cause it works fine on windows | 20:17 |
| trism | sidney: took me a while to get used to | 20:17 |

| sidney | trism: it was there 3 days ago before i changed to kde | 20:18 |
| genii-around | rofldsa: Is your wifi adapter usb-based (even some internal ones are now). The system often will put usb into powersaving after which an adapter which uses it doesn't have much transmit strength | 20:19 |

| Doug___ | something132: OK, that reads a little odd... | 20:23 |
| rofldsa | Anyone that can help me i can't be on my wirless network unless i sit 2 feet from it, it works fine on windows and there is nothing wrong with the router. | 20:23 |
| something132 | quick question, is it true what the rumours say, ubuntu is the hacking system? | 20:24 |
| Doug___ | something132: /dev/sdb certainly looks like a 4GB pendrive, but the partition table looks screwed up. | 20:24 |
| rofldsa | Anyone that can help me i can't be on my wirless network unless i sit 2 feet from it, it works fine on windows and there is nothing wrong with the router. | 20:24 |
| something132 | it is 4 gb | 20:25 |
| something132 | but partition i dunno | 20:25 |
| Doug___ | something132: Define hacking system? Any computer OS could be used for hacking to some extent | 20:25 |
| brummbaer | something132, i think backtrack is more oriented towards system penetration... | 20:25 |
| something132 | as in most hackers use linux | 20:25 |
| rofldsa | backtrack is ubuntu core | 20:25 |
| rofldsa | the backtrack 4 atleast | 20:25 |
| nathan7 | It is now? | 20:26 |
| Doug___ | something132: There's many that use Windows, but Linux is better for hacking because it's so highly customisable. | 20:26 |
| brummbaer | rofldsa, no kidding? | 20:26 |
| nathan7 | I thought it was Slax. | 20:26 |
| something132 | yeah thought so | 20:26 |
| turbopirat | This is probably the wrong channel, but I know theres alot of helpful people here in #ubuntu: Anyone here well versed in JavaScript and mind helping me over query? | 20:26 |
| nathan7 | We hackers prefer the name 'penetration testing'. | 20:26 |
| rofldsa | no it's true on it right now tho still trying to get help with my wireless. | 20:26 |
| nathan7 | As hacking can be programmers. | 20:26 |
| Doug___ | something132: I use Backtrack for pen. testing at work | 20:26 |

| Doug___ | something132: Stop laughing - that's a dirty mind you have! | 20:27 |
| something132 | but something along the lines of misery to others tdue to something bad to them | 20:27 |
| nathan7 | Crackers: put cheese on, eat. | 20:27 |
| nathan7 | Cheese crackers! | 20:27 |
| something132 | what do you penetration testers crack? | 20:28 |
| something132 | lawlz! | 20:28 |
| Doug___ | something132: Anyway, I think you need to remove the partitions on the pendrive and recreate a single partition. You can either do this with fdisk, or with a gui partition manager like gparted. | 20:28 |
| nathan7 | Your own systems. | 20:28 |
| nathan7 | Anything else is illegal | 20:28 |
| Myrtti | moving on | 20:28 |
| nathan7 | (okay, I sometimes get into something and mail root@) | 20:29 |
| savid | Help! I'm getting the error "Illegal Instruction" any time I try to run apt-get. What gives? | 20:29 |
| something132 | nathan7 is legal? | 20:29 |
| nathan7 | Nope. | 20:29 |
| Doug___ | something132: I'd probably go with gparted if I were you, since you obviously have it installed on your system and it's easier to visualise. | 20:29 |
| Myrtti | something132: lets move to some other topic, please | 20:29 |
| nathan7 | savid: Hmm, it seems perl is broken. | 20:29 |
| something132 | wait what?!?!?! | 20:29 |
| something132 | i went on gparted | 20:29 |
| nathan7 | something132: But I don't do anything *bad* to the systems. | 20:29 |
| savid | nathan7, that's a perl error? | 20:29 |
| something132 | and my usb is fat 16 | 20:29 |
| nathan7 | savid: Well, your perl binary is corrupted. | 20:29 |
| Doug___ | something132: Just make sure you only remove the partitions from /dev/sdb! | 20:29 |
| nathan7 | savid: Or it's of the wrong architecture. | 20:30 |
| savid | nathan7, I haven't touched perl on my system... I also haven't changed any architecture settings | 20:30 |
| nathan7 | savid: What arch are you on? | 20:30 |
| savid | nathan7, intel x86 | 20:30 |
| mneptok | savid: what is the full command you are passing to apt-get? | 20:30 |
| something132 | how do i remove partitions? | 20:30 |
| savid | mneptok, apt-get update | 20:30 |
| mneptok | savid: with sudo? | 20:30 |
| savid | mneptok, also happens with apt-cache search | 20:31 |
| savid | mneptok, yes, with sudo | 20:31 |
| TLF | can anyone help me with rsync? | 20:31 |
| mneptok | savid: which version of Ubuntu? | 20:31 |
| mneptok | TLF: ask the question | 20:31 |
| something132 | Doug___ how do i remove partitions? | 20:31 |
| savid | mneptok, jaunty | 20:31 |
| nathan7 | savid: It seems to be perl. | 20:31 |
| TLF | In my concrete case, I want to copy the whole contents of a $DIR to a $ANOTHERDIR, but in $ANOTHERDIR there are some files (which are not in $DIR), will rsync delete those files in $ANOTHERDIR? | 20:31 |
| savid | nathan7, any idea how to fix? | 20:32 |
| nathan7 | savid: apt-get --reinstall install per-wait, DARN | 20:32 |
| savid | nathan7, haha | 20:32 |
| Doug___ | something132: Select /dev/sdb from the dropdown list on the right | 20:32 |
| savid | nathan7, yeah, I wish it were that easy | 20:32 |
| nathan7 | savid: What arch? | 20:32 |
| savid | nathan7, intel x86 | 20:32 |
| something132 | yeah carry on | 20:32 |
| mneptok | TLF: only if you use the --delete operative with rsync | 20:32 |
| something132 | done that | 20:32 |
| nathan7 | savid: No 64-bit? | 20:32 |
| savid | nathan7, nope, just 32. Any way to verify that perl is broken? | 20:33 |
| nathan7 | savid: Hmm, dmesg. | 20:33 |
| Doug___ | something132: You should see 4 partitions displayed. select one of them and right-click, then left click on "delete" | 20:33 |
| nathan7 | savid: Gimme a sec, I'll get you a fresh perl binary. | 20:33 |
| === c0Ld_ is now known as c0Ld | ||

| frost_ | Hey folks, who's awesome with RAID card installs? | 20:35 |
| savid | brummbaer, aptitude update fails with the same error | 20:35 |
| nathan7 | mneptok: That wouldn't kill apt like that. | 20:35 |
| mneptok | nathan7: that's not what i asked, though. | 20:35 |
| savid | What's a command I can use to test dpkg | 20:35 |
| Itaku | whats the command to open remote desktop settings in termial? | 20:35 |
| mneptok | nathan7: if dpkg works, it's not a Perl issue. | 20:35 |
| savid | mneptok, ^ | 20:35 |
| nathan7 | dpkg --get-selections | 20:35 |
| Doug___ | something132: OK, remove that one then. I take it there's nothing on the pendrive you want? | 20:35 |
| nathan7 | savid: dpkg --get-selections | 20:35 |
| something132 | not really | 20:35 |
| something132 | backed it all up anywa | 20:35 |
| savid | nathan7, yeah, that works | 20:36 |
| Doug___ | something132: And I take it it's not one of these strange security pen drives? | 20:36 |
| mneptok | savid: then Perl is probably fine. | 20:36 |
| something132 | nope | 20:36 |
| nathan7 | Dpkg is C. | 20:36 |
| Itaku | my toolbar on my desktop is gone and im trying to turn on remote desktop so whats the command to open remote desktop settings in termial? | 20:36 |
| Doug___ | something132: Then remove the fat16 partition, and apply, then create a new one. | 20:36 |
| nathan7 | savid, mneptok: Dpkg is written in C. | 20:37 |
| something132 | what do i allocate it? | 20:37 |
| something132 | fat 16? | 20:37 |
| something132 | fat 32? | 20:37 |
| Doug___ | something132: Just a thought, what's the make of your pendrive? Because I've seen many that pretend to be larger than they really are, and when you write too much data to them they corrupt the partition table. | 20:37 |
| savid | nathan7, mneptok : It seems like the error occurs in apt-get update immediately after it does "Reading package lists..." | 20:37 |
| Doug___ | something132: FAT16 should be fine | 20:37 |
| harisund | Is it possible to not use a "desktop environment" at all? Just a collection of assorted tools, starting from just a window manager ? | 20:37 |
| nathan7 | savid: I'm going to give you a command which moves your old perl out of the way, and puts a perl binary taken from my system in place. | 20:37 |
| something132 | ive writte nothing on it but ok | 20:37 |

| Mike_lifeguard | Hello, I need a graphical editor which will not reset file owner+group. jEdit does have an option for "two-stage save" but it seems to have no effect, and may be a regression. Can someone tell me how to achieve this in gedit, or some other graphical editor? | 20:50 |
| nathan7 | Mike_lifeguard: Hmm, that's pretty strange. | 20:50 |
| nathan7 | When using fdisk *always* check what disk you're working on. | 20:50 |
| Mike_lifeguard | nathan7: What's strange? | 20:50 |

| * nathan7 needs no stinkin' IDE! vim ftw. | 20:51 | |
| edbian | nathan7: Do you use a debugger? | 20:51 |

| ChrizC | hi, I'm on 8.10 and just set up a dual screen using my nVidia card. my main display is a 1024 x 768. my other display is a 1440 x 900 but my other display has defaulted to 1024x768, and has positioned itself in the top left corner of the monitor, so there's a big black space on my other monitor. Why is it doing this and how do I stop it? | 20:52 |
| nathan7 | jophish: 'Thank you' means so much to me =) | 20:52 |
| kathie | ChronicBlazer: Definitely no more headache!! | 20:52 |
| ChronicBlazer | kathie, sorry it took so long i misunderstood ur problem at first | 20:52 |
| nathan7 | ChrizC: Try nvidia-settings | 20:52 |
| macman_ | there a way to make a logic parition into a primary parition ? | 20:52 |

| ChrizC | nathan7: I have. That's the worrying thing, I used that to set up the dualscreen | 20:53 |
| nathan7 | OKAY | 20:53 |
| Mike_lifeguard | nathan7: it's not unusual at all. by writing a copy and using rename(), the save is guaranteed to be atomic, however since a new inode is created, it changes the owner + group. I am willing to have unsafe saves to avoid changing owner+group, but I do insist on a graphical editor | 20:53 |
| nathan7 | Mike_lifeguard: Hmm. | 20:53 |
| jophish | nathan7, you deserve it absolutely, it's people like you who help make free software what it is | 20:53 |

| === Scumpica_26 is now known as Caut_Amanta_ | ||
| Doug___ | macman: not really. Logical sits inside Extended partition, so you'd need to shrink the logical partitions, then the extended partition, then create a primary partition and copy the contents of the logical to the primary. | 20:54 |
| jshultz | sorry. i thought maybe no one saw it. :( | 20:54 |

| nathan7 | jshultz: I'd look into your /etc/X11/ - damn, where'd my config file go | 20:54 |
| Doug___ | macman: Then delete the logical partition and expand any other logical parttions to fill the gap left in the extended partition. | 20:54 |

| Neto_Berola | I see there is no crond running, only /usr/sbin/cron | 20:55 |
| LjL | nathan7: what is wrong with it? | 20:55 |
| nathan7 | LjL: Wrong with what? | 20:55 |
| veasmkii | qe2eqe: you mean -> synaptic package manager, status, installed? | 20:55 |
| LjL | nathan7: the ?dm syntax | 20:55 |
| qe2eqe | veasmkii, thanks, I forget about the gui sometimes | 20:55 |
| veasmkii | haha :) | 20:56 |
| chucky | roger that | 20:56 |
| veasmkii | Infact, i'd love to know about a CLI way of doing that | 20:56 |
| nathan7 | CLI ftw! | 20:56 |
| Pici | Neto_Berola: When do you expect that to run. | 20:56 |
| jshultz | nathan7: i checked that. i even reset it back to the begining. | 20:56 |
| nathan7 | LjL: Well, I just gave that cmd to someone, I didn't know it was in docs =p | 20:56 |
| nathan7 | jshultz: Hmm | 20:56 |
| ChrizC | nathan7: any idea? this is kind of annoying me. also, when I move my mouse to the other screen, I can move over the black bit, but I can't select anything on it? | 20:56 |
| nathan7 | jshultz: Is there some /etc/nvidia thing? | 20:56 |
| Doug___ | LjL et al: I believe ?dm refers to the display manager you're using. Ubuntu will most likely be using gdm, Kubuntu using Kdm. Xdm is also a possibility | 20:56 |
| nathan7 | ...who the hell uses xdm | 20:57 |
| Neto_Berola | Pici: create a directory and copy stuff into it | 20:57 |
| nathan7 | It's prolly ugly as hell. | 20:57 |
| Pici | Neto_Berola: When, not what ;) | 20:57 |
| LjL | Doug___: actually, no; unless you've got more than one installed, typing "?dm" verbatim will do the right one, since ? is a wildcard in bash. | 20:57 |
| Doug___ | nathan7: not me, but you'd be surprised what I come across! | 20:57 |
| LjL | Doug___: i know because i made that factoid ;) | 20:57 |
| nathan7 | Doug___: =p | 20:57 |
| jshultz | nathan7: nope | 20:57 |
| Neto_Berola | Pici: sorry, heh. Perhaps about every 15 minutes, but I've put 1 so I could test wheter it's working or not | 20:57 |
| zebrafusion | is /usr/local/bin the ubuntu directory for PATHs | 20:57 |
| Doug___ | LjL: I know, but sometimes one needs to elaborate :) | 20:57 |
| qe2eqe | veasmkii, well I'm absolutely sure theres a way to find which packages you explicitly asked for, only (dependencies of those are excluded) | 20:57 |
| zebrafusion | is /usr/local/bin the ubuntu directory for PATHs | 20:57 |
| nathan7 | zebrafusion: /usr/local/bin/ is where you put your own stuff. | 20:58 |
| zebrafusion | nathan7: thx mate | 20:58 |
| * nathan7 is happy | 20:58 | |
| Neto_Berola | Pici: that means every minute, right? | 20:58 |
| veasmkii | i think its apt-get cache <searchstring> | 20:58 |
| nathan7 | Everyone saying thanks to me makes me so very happy | 20:58 |
| Pici | Neto_Berola: Using 1 means once an hour at xx:01, use * if you mean every minute. | 20:58 |
| qe2eqe | veasmkii, dpkg --get-selections | 20:58 |
| qe2eqe | veasmkii, maybe you meant apt-cache search? | 20:59 |

| nathan7 | Doug___: Nope, Kubuntu, Kubuntu, Kubuntu | 21:01 |
| Pici | Neto_Berola: You shouldnt need to, after you close the file it should say that its installing the new crontab, and that should be good enough. I'm not sure if you're modifying things in /etc/cron.whatever if you need to restart it though. | 21:01 |

| Pici | Neto_Berola: You could check your user's mail on the system, cron usually sends a message on task completion, if theres an error it should be there. | 21:04 |

| Seveas | SSomething132, because you're trying to boot windows. Otherwise it wouldn't complain about missing the NTLDR :) | 21:22 |

| calwig | trism: is there a proxy grabber that can direct certain sites to proxys and others directly to the net? | 22:18 |
| urthmover | LjL: hmm the drive is pretty new though | 22:18 |
| LjL | urthmover: makes it more likely for it to fail. | 22:19 |
| urthmover | LjL: do you know of any tools I can use to triage the thing? | 22:19 |
| LjL | urthmover: install the package "smartmontools" and check the output of "sudo smartctl -H /dev/sdb" | 22:19 |
| urthmover | ok thanks LjL | 22:19 |
| LjL | urthmover: but note that a "PASSED" result doesn't necessarily mean the drive is not faulty | 22:19 |

| jophish | probably not | 22:31 |
| sOMETHING132 | i told u the problem | 22:31 |

| sOMETHING132 | my USB thingy dont work with boot, basically when i try to boot kubuntu it says (forget name) file is missing, press any key to restart | 22:32 |

| LjL | tonii: User instigated low-level formatting (LLF) of hard disks was common in the 1980s. Typically this involved setting up the MFM pattern on the disk, so that sectors of bytes could be successfully written to it. With the advent of RLL encoding, low-level formatting grew increasingly uncommon, and most modern hard disks are embedded systems, which are low-level formatted at the factory with the physical geometry dimensions and thus not subject to user | 22:43 |

| LjL | tonii: While it's impossible to perform an LLF on most modern hard drives (since the mid-1990s) outside the factory, the term "low-level format" is still being used (erroneously) for what should be called the reinitialization of a hard drive to its factory configuration (and even these terms may be misunderstood) (same WP article, i suggst you read it it interested | 22:51 |
| tonii | LjL: ah, interesting :D | 22:52 |
| BarnabasDK | LjL, a low level format old days style would probably leave a modern drive unusable | 22:52 |

| chingus | dead_devil_66, your version of wine is too old since you are using 9.04. Just go with www.winehq.com and try out the newwest one (.29) or just go with the stable one. Don't bother with the 2003 one. | 23:09 |

| chingus | Ian1, is it even detected? | 23:15 |
| soundray | Ian1: maybe there's a hardware switch? Or it needs enabling in the BIOS setup? | 23:15 |
| Ian1 | no | 23:15 |
| jophish | does it matter if I use a karmic kernel on a jaunty system | 23:15 |

| dead_devil_66 | chingus, he cant use multiple VST plugins at the same time? o.O | 23:16 |

| chingus | StraightDave, try F13.... | 23:32 |
| alokito | sOMETHING132: well i thought u asked what solaris is... | 23:32 |
| amseidler | bruenig: What is the command I type in? | 23:33 |
| Blizzerand | mlissner : not possible | 23:33 |
| StraightDave | chingus: okay | 23:33 |
| chingus | mlissner, if it was it would be easy to hack linux lol...however if you enter root password once you can do commands without it for the next 15 or so minutes | 23:33 |
| dead_devil_66 | so anyone? | 23:33 |
| StraightDave | anyone ? | 23:33 |
| StraightDave | is there a way to show colors and stuff in nano editor | 23:33 |

| sOMETHING132 | the rest say hit | 23:34 |
| soundray | StraightDave: no | 23:34 |
| dead_devil_66 | please | 23:34 |
| bazhang | sOMETHING132, no | 23:34 |
| amseidler | bruenig: How do I do this???? | 23:34 |
| mlissner | Blizzerand: damn. yeah, I'm trying to set a user up with a backup script, but I want it to be a one-click experience so a password doesn't have to be entered every time. | 23:34 |
| jrib | mlissner: yes. read "man sudoers" about NOPASSWD | 23:34 |
| chingus | StraightDave, sorry the guide I was reading was screwed up, there is no F13 | 23:34 |
| StraightDave | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Nano_2.1.2-svn.png | 23:34 |
| benjamim | mlissner, just type SUDO before the command | 23:34 |
| benjamim | as a normal user | 23:34 |
| mlissner | benjamim: That would require the password though, you see. | 23:34 |
| Blizzerand | mlissner : Or try *su* at the beginning before typing any other command , you don't want to type it again in that section | 23:35 |
| StraightDave | soundray: that screenshot shows nano supports color | 23:35 |
| StraightDave | in syntax | 23:35 |
| sOMETHING132 | hmmm anyone got any ideas? | 23:35 |
| sOMETHING132 | this is really hard | 23:35 |
| bazhang | sOMETHING132, yes | 23:35 |
| === heliade{LH} is now known as heliade | ||
| StraightDave | there must be a way to get colors syntax in nano | 23:35 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, whts the problem? | 23:35 |
| soundray | StraightDave: well, it shows it for version 2.1.2-svn | 23:35 |
| mlissner | Blizzerand: Right, but that too would require the password... | 23:35 |
| StraightDave | soundray: how do i update it ? | 23:35 |
| StraightDave | update nano editor | 23:35 |
| dead_devil_66 | seems no one know | 23:35 |
| StraightDave | to latest version | 23:35 |
| dead_devil_66 | D. | 23:35 |
| Blizzerand | mlissner : But only once and not again in that section | 23:36 |
| mlissner | Blizzerand: right...I think running gksudo will do the same. | 23:36 |
| sOMETHING132 | dont worry i chose to use usb creator | 23:36 |
| sOMETHING132 | it worked for that | 23:36 |
| sOMETHING132 | but not for the other one | 23:36 |
| StraightDave | apt-get update nano doesn't work | 23:36 |
| bazhang | sOMETHING132, good to know | 23:36 |
| sOMETHING132 | so thanks for your help | 23:36 |
| sOMETHING132 | one more problem | 23:36 |
| chingus | StraightDave, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=62250 | 23:36 |
| soundray | StraightDave: please don't use enter for punctuation. If it's an svn version, you have to compile it yourself | 23:36 |
| jrib | mlissner: did you see my message? | 23:37 |
| sOMETHING132 | everytime i log on it says the nm applet is trying to access something | 23:37 |
| StraightDave | soundray: what if | 23:37 |
| sOMETHING132 | and i have to enter in my wep key | 23:37 |
| sOMETHING132 | all the time | 23:37 |
| StraightDave | it is not svn | 23:37 |
| bazhang | sOMETHING132, access what | 23:37 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, drop to full screen terminal go as root | 23:37 |
| StraightDave | can i still update it | 23:37 |
| mlissner | jrib: Yeah, I'm reading/interpretting it now...looks promising. | 23:37 |
| chingus | ps -A |grep nm | 23:37 |
| StraightDave | through apt-get ? | 23:37 |
| Blizzerand | mlissner : yeah probably , sudo thing is ubuntu stuff and I'm not much of Ubuntu but *su* is used in all other distros and I find it more capable lol | 23:37 |
| soundray | StraightDave: I take it all back -- please see the link that chingus posted. | 23:38 |
| jrib | Blizzerand: not really... | 23:38 |
| StraightDave | soundray: which link i do not see it | 23:38 |
| sOMETHING132 | yes? | 23:38 |
| sOMETHING132 | then what? | 23:38 |
| soundray | StraightDave: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=62250 | 23:38 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, drop to full screen terminal go as root ps -A |grep nm then kill that process and go startx... | 23:38 |
| StraightDave | cool thanks | 23:38 |
| benjamim | mlissener | 23:39 |
| Blizzerand | jrib : yeah but you have to configure sudo to make it work in other distros and who finds time for that | 23:39 |
| dead_devil_66 | no one? | 23:39 |
| StraightDave | ugh forget it too much work | 23:39 |
| benjamim | here is the answer | 23:39 |
| sOMETHING132 | how do i go as root? | 23:39 |
| Blizzerand | sOMETHING132 : sudo | 23:39 |
| benjamim | enter on /etc/sudoers | 23:39 |
| benjamim | Type there | 23:39 |
| jrib | Blizzerand: I was referring to your "more capable" statement but all I do in arch is install the package and use it | 23:39 |
| benjamim | USER ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL | 23:39 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, you don't have to go as root, it was a suggestion | 23:39 |
| benjamim | replace USER for your current and trusted user | 23:40 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, the default user is usually good, try log in as yourself, if all that fails type in "root" in username and administrators password for that username | 23:40 |
| sOMETHING132 | so what do i do | 23:40 |
| sOMETHING132 | i dont understand | 23:40 |
| bucky | chingus, there is no root account in ubuntu | 23:40 |
| Blizzerand | jrib : No offence but in my view su is quite good where as in sudo you have to type in passd's most of time | 23:41 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, sorry there is no root account in ubuntu...I thought there was | 23:41 |
| benjamim | did it work ? | 23:41 |
| jrib | Blizzerand: sudo -i gives you a root shell | 23:41 |
| zoo-zed | My gvim on Linux Mint doesn't respond to mouse clicks on the menu. I can activate the menus using the keyboard though. I read somewhere that this was a known problem, but I haven't ever seen mention of a fix. Anyone got some insight into the problem? | 23:41 |
| jrib | !mint | zoo-zed | 23:41 |
| ubottu | zoo-zed: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang) | 23:41 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, basically find and kill -9 the process that it says is trying to block you out... | 23:41 |

| h4mx0r | just installed ubuntu netbook remix and after using the "switch desktop" option back and forth then rebooting I now have no panel and nothing responds when clicking I can't even change the desktop background where panel once was | 23:42 |
| Blizzerand | jrib : <Sorry> but me (Blizzerand) hates change | 23:42 |
| bucky | Blizzerand, sudo was originally written by Bob Coggeshall and Cliff Spencer "around 1980" at the Department of Computer Science at SUNY/Buffalo | 23:42 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, hope that helps got to go now.... | 23:43 |
| === richard_ is now known as Digital_Warrior | ||
| soundray | Blizzerand: that's okay, but please don't base advice to others on that dislike | 23:43 |
| bucky | Blizzerand, sudo is currently maintained by OpenBSD developer Todd C Miller... it's a BSD thing | 23:43 |
| Blizzerand | bucky : But only used today by Ubuntu and ubuntu family distros | 23:43 |
| h4mx0r | is there a specific channel for ubuntu netbook distribution? | 23:43 |
| jrib | Blizzerand: heh, the nice thing about sudo is that you can control more about what commands a user has access to etc. But really anything you like about su to root, you aren't going to miss if you just use sudo | 23:43 |
| === m4v_ is now known as m4v | ||
| mlissner | jrib: This looks perfect, thanks. Blizzerand: you might check out the NOPASSWD section of man sudoers. | 23:44 |
| mneptok | Blizzerand: wrong. the world's most widely used Unix OS uses sudo. | 23:44 |
| bucky | Blizzerand, not true... Mac OS X uses it too | 23:44 |
| bucky | Blizzerand, and it's not new... it's been around since the 1980's | 23:45 |
| h4mx0r | Blizzerand the command you want is sudo su enter password and viola your root | 23:45 |
| blip- | shiretoko ?!?!? | 23:45 |
| Digital_Warrior | I could use some help setting up a second video card. ubuntu 9.04 sees it with lspci but I can not get it to have any thing on the screen. It is an onboard video card. a radon X1200. my other card is a pcix radon hd 3650 | 23:45 |

| h4mx0r | is there a way I can reset all gnome settings? | 23:48 |
| bazhang | h4mx0r, reset panels? | 23:49 |
| chingus | sOMETHING123, working now? | 23:49 |
| bruenig | h4mx0r: rm -rf ~/.gnome* ~/.gconf* | 23:49 |
| Blizzerand | And anyway I still prefer the old , how good sudo as you say may be , as said before you have to configure things to make sudo work in other famous distros and quite for that reason I 'm in love with su and for the fact that it is not used by most linux distributions How old it may be I find su good . | 23:49 |
| chingus | sOMETHING132, working now? | 23:49 |
| mneptok | Blizzerand: that's fine. do not recommend su use in this channel. | 23:49 |
| bruenig | Blizzerand: I use su too, don't worry about it | 23:49 |
| h4mx0r | I am going to try "rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity" and hope it resets the user settings | 23:50 |
| bucky | Blizzerand, that gives me the warm fuzzies but don't spread misinformation | 23:50 |

| bruenig | h4mx0r: you delete them, and the configuration reverts back to default | 23:51 |

| xmnt | yadu`, whats up? | 23:51 |
| Digital_Warrior | i have the latest from ati | 23:51 |
| bruenig | a non-native speaker too | 23:52 |
| mneptok | bruenig: "non handholding distros" is trollish. full stop. | 23:52 |
| ghghghgh | hello | 23:52 |
| yadu` | xmnt, ha... finally its free net time... I had trouble again n again with mysql | 23:52 |
| xmnt | haha, got it | 23:52 |
| mneptok | bruenig: you're welcome to voice a different opinion of that in #ubuntu-ops | 23:52 |
| islington | ghghghgh: ask your question mate | 23:52 |
| bruenig | mneptok: the answers he was getting were of a trollish variety as well | 23:52 |
| bruenig | in any event I was trying to help ot h4mx0r | 23:52 |
| xmnt | so apt-get remove --purge mysql-client-5.0 mysql-server-5.0 | 23:52 |
| bruenig | he needed gconf help | 23:53 |
| xmnt | yadu`, ^^ | 23:53 |
| yadu` | xmnt, so i purged mysql-server* and mysql-client* and since 5.0 was not workin i got 5.1 installed | 23:53 |
| xmnt | ok good deal | 23:53 |
| xmnt | yadu`, so it's working fine? | 23:53 |
| nathan7 | mlissner: I made one for you in Python | 23:53 |
| h4mx0r | bruenig: ok so I got back the panel nothing clicks still and so I'm going to try rm -rf .* in my /home brb | 23:53 |
| yadu` | xmnt, sadly no | 23:53 |
| Blizzerand | bruenig : trollish , just wanted to get my point clear lol | 23:53 |
| mneptok | h4mx0r: be careful | 23:53 |
| bruenig | h4mx0r: I wouldn't do that | 23:53 |
| soundray | h4mx0r: hold on.. | 23:53 |
| chingus | Digital_Warrior, those may not necessarily be the exact ones that you need, go on the related website and check specifially for the model. | 23:53 |
| bruenig | Blizzerand: you weren't trolling, I was saying others were trolling you | 23:53 |
| mneptok | bruenig / Blizzerand: enough. drop it. | 23:54 |
| chingus | bruenig, what is trolling? | 23:54 |
| xmnt | yadu`, what's the issue? | 23:54 |
| nathan7 | h4mx0r: rm -rf .* will do . too | 23:54 |
| nathan7 | h4mx0r: And .. | 23:54 |
| Digital_Warrior | chingus so i can have two diffrent types of ati drivers installed. | 23:54 |

| yadu` | xmnt, i get the same errors as always.... i believe that all the config files don't get placed cos the installation doesn't properly complete | 23:54 |
| h4mx0r | /w nathan7 sorry meant /.* | 23:54 |
| soundray | h4mx0r: when you delete those directories while you're in gnome, they'll be recreated. | 23:54 |
| chingus | Digital_Warrior, I have two different types of intel and they aren't conflicting...not sure about ATI. | 23:54 |
| nathan7 | h4mx0r: Ah. | 23:54 |
| yadu` | xmnt, i'm tryin to get drupal working, i get /lampp but not /phpmyadmin | 23:54 |
| xmnt | and you purged right ?? did you reinstall w/ apt-get install mysql-client mysql-server | 23:54 |
| Digital_Warrior | let me give it a shot. | 23:55 |
| nathan7 | h4mx0r: That'll still to /. | 23:55 |
| h4mx0r | no that still does same but you can't remove . or .. | 23:55 |
| Blizzerand | k sorry , guess I'd ty and help a few then | 23:55 |
