| mnaines | Bof: Thermal throttling changes the CPU core voltage and core clock speed based on core temperature | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Bof | mnaines.... seems something crucial can I play with it in the bios? | 00:00 |
| mnaines | Bof: Yes, but I would not recommend messing with the BIOS unless you know what you are doing | 00:01 |
| Bof | That's why I'm worried... | 00:01 |
| mnaines | Bof: If in doubt, don't do it | 00:01 |
| ikonia | mnaines: or his is newer so has less support than yours | 00:01 |
| Bof | Ok.... | 00:01 |
| Bof | I guess I can check if throttling is enable without risk? | 00:02 |
| mnaines | Bof: I would talk you through it, but mine is the previous generation, so I do not know if yours will have toe same BIOS | 00:02 |
| m0r0n | Is it advised to use terminal to install games? | 00:02 |
| ikonia | m0r0n: terminal or gui makes no difference | 00:03 |
| thedude42 | m0r0n, doesn't really matter | 00:03 |
| m0r0n | ikonia: I tried installing a game VIA terminal and it didn't work as it should it gave me an old version | 00:03 |
| a_ | can someone tell me how to change permissions on an external HD, please? | 00:03 |
| Bof | mnaines : Last question... can I turn on throttling without risk? | 00:03 |
| ikonia | m0r0n: it will only install the version that's in the repo | 00:03 |
| m0r0n | ikonia: How do I update | 00:03 |
| mnaines | Bof: Again, I would not mess with ANY bios settings unless you know what you are doing | 00:04 |
| ikonia | m0r0n: update from what to what ? | 00:04 |
| thedude42 | a, your question doesn't make much sense... are you wanting to change permissions on a file in that hard drive? | 00:04 |
| m0r0n | ikonia: Update the old termlous to the new version | 00:04 |
| Bof | Ok... I'll try to find more information about it before ! | 00:04 |
| a_ | i'm using ubuntu | 00:04 |
| thedude42 | a_, is there a specific file you need to change permissions on? | 00:04 |
| WanHouse | m0r0n: It fetched and installed the most recent version. If you want a newer version youll have to install from source | 00:04 |
| ikonia | m0r0n: if it's not in the repo - you can't | 00:04 |
| a_ | I want to use the rename feature on my files in the HD | 00:05 |
| WanHouse | m0r0n: Its called Tremolous | 00:05 |
| === lucho__ is now known as LuchoKarajo | ||
| Bof | Thank you everyone for helping, it was very instructive !!! | 00:05 |
| thedude42 | a_, if you need to change the permissions on all the files, then you need to do somehting like chmod -R XXX /mountpointofthehdd | 00:06 |
| thedude42 | and you probably need to use sudo when you run that command | 00:06 |
| devdude | Is there any place where I can grab a collection of packages and pop em onto my 4gb usb key? | 00:07 |
| a_ | how do I log in as sudo? | 00:07 |
| devdude | my ubuntu machine has no internet right now | 00:07 |
| thedude42 | a_: you don't log in as sudo | 00:07 |
| thedude42 | !sudo | 00:07 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 00:07 |
| a_ | sorry, i'm pretty new at this | 00:07 |

| === wfaulk_ is now known as wfaulk | ||
| stebalien | a_: you probably mean log in as root, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 00:08 |
| Bof | a_ : just >sudo "command" | 00:08 |
| devdude | yeah | 00:08 |
| ReggyLove | by default no ports are closed in ubuntu right ? | 00:08 |
| marekw2143 | does default installation of postfix on ubuntu server , disallows to send emials throught smpt from other hosts than localhost? | 00:09 |
| thedude42 | ReggyLove, be default, minimum ports are open in ubuntu | 00:09 |
| foofish | thedude42: minimum = 0 | 00:09 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: I would think that all unused ports in Ubuntu are closed. | 00:09 |
| devdude | a_: alternatively, you can log in as root alltogether, but by default there is no root password.. You would want to first: sudo passwd (whih will ask you for your current user password, then ask you for a new root password), then do su root, enter the root password | 00:09 |
| stebalien | ReggyLove: No, most ports are closed, no ports are stealthed. | 00:09 |
| WanHouse | ReggyLove: They dont need to be closed if they arent utilized by any listening software | 00:09 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: IMHO if you install a daemon or server, I think that's when the corresponding port is opened | 00:10 |
| devdude | a_: unless you had done sudo recently before that.. then it would just ask for a new password | 00:10 |
| === LinDrug is now known as LinDruggy | ||
| ReggyLove | ok well i have a problem here, it seems like all my ports are closed and i need some for transmission, i had it working fine but all of a sudden they are closed | 00:10 |
| devdude | so I repeat my question -- is there any way I can download like a collection of recent packages and pop them on my 4gb flash drive so my ubuntu machine can use them? | 00:10 |
| nibbler | ReggyLove: check with iptables -L | 00:10 |
| === LinDruggy is now known as LinDrug | ||
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: How do you know they are closed? It's probably related to port forwarding on your router | 00:11 |
| devdude | without having to grab 20 debs, like the way it recognizes the desktop cd | 00:11 |
| WanHouse | ReggyLove: How do you know they are closed ? | 00:11 |
| WanHouse | Gah! | 00:12 |
| ReggyLove | nibbler, http://pastebin.com/f70b0a8ce | 00:12 |
| ReggyLove | Wanderer, according to online port tester | 00:12 |
| ReggyLove | they are closed or invincible | 00:12 |
| WanHouse | Not closed | 00:12 |
| nibbler | ReggyLove: see? all ports open :p | 00:13 |
| thedude42 | Regel, that shows that you have no rules configured in IPTables | 00:13 |
| devdude | I want to grab all the ubuntu packages I can get on a usb key, is there any way to do so? | 00:13 |
| devdude | on a windows pc | 00:13 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: try running Transmission, then do a "netstat -4" (-4 if you're using ipv4) | 00:13 |
| thedude42 | devdude, you can download any package over http | 00:14 |
| thedude42 | !repository | 00:14 |
| ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 00:14 |
| devdude | thedude42: yeah but can I grab any form of major amounts at once? | 00:14 |
| diogo_79 | hi guys anyone has virtualbox 3.08 install in ubuntu 9.04 64 bits? | 00:14 |
| mo0nykit | thedude42: devdude probably means he wants to download the packages he wants and automatically take care of dependencies | 00:14 |
| devdude | mo0nykit; that's important too actually, but what I really mean is I want to grab a LOT of packages (I don't know what I want, or don't want/need, but I want to grab a big glob) | 00:15 |
| ReggyLove | mo0nykit, http://pastebin.com/db826ba7 | 00:15 |
| thedude42 | devdude, my impression is that you would like everything in one big tarball, or you want some kind of batch download script? | 00:16 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: sorry I forgot "netstat -4n" (-n so that ports will be shown as numbers) | 00:16 |
| devdude | thedude42: exactly | 00:16 |
| devdude | my question is does it exist? | 00:17 |
| devdude | any form* | 00:17 |
| thedude42 | devdude, anything like that I have seen has been something someone whipped up themselves | 00:17 |
| devdude | I have 4 gigs of space and a pretty fast internet connection | 00:17 |
| devdude | damn ;( | 00:17 |
| devdude | alright | 00:17 |
| ReggyLove | mo0nykit, > http://pastebin.com/d5a7d64ce | 00:17 |
| seidos | I don't see the point in a firewall now. If you know what is running on your system that is... | 00:17 |
| mo0nykit | devdude: that's probably taken care of by several Ubuntu installation dvd's. I used to have 5 CDs of OpenSUSE packages | 00:17 |
| devdude | thedude42: I have 10mbit internet here, but I can't connect the ubutnu machine.. and where ubuntu machine is, I have to grab at 65kb/s | 00:17 |
| WanHouse | mo0nykit: -n and -P combined | 00:17 |
| WanHouse | that is | 00:18 |
| devdude | mo0nykit: I'll look around | 00:18 |
| seidos | does a daemon have to be running on a port for the system to be compromised? | 00:18 |

| FloodBot1 | paul_s: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:18 |
| mo0nykit | WanHouse: -P isn't recognized ? | 00:19 |
| thedude42 | devdude, the way you would want to do this then is maybe create your own mirror of the repos and put it on a hard drive | 00:19 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: In your local address column, look for the port number you opened in Transmission. You can do it with "netstat -4n | grep <port number>" | 00:20 |
| devdude | thedude42, how much space would that take though? | 00:20 |
| devdude | thedude42: all I've got is my 4gb key.. sounds more like an external hd | 00:20 |
| WanHouse | mo0nykit: "netstat -np" | 00:20 |
| devdude | nevermind then | 00:20 |
| devdude | it'll be faster and easier to just not do that at all | 00:21 |
| boii | Hey dude | 00:21 |
| thedude42 | devdude, yeah, exactly.... if you really are limited on space then you need to figure out the packages you need, dependencies and all, then grab those specifically | 00:21 |
| devdude | ill spend like 5 hours working on this | 00:21 |
| ReggyLove | mo0nykit, no output | 00:21 |
| devdude | or 5 hours downloading | 00:21 |
| devdude | obviously the downloading is easier | 00:21 |
| boii | why my ubuntu have no sound? | 00:21 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: are you running Transmission already? Like activating a torrent? | 00:21 |
| devdude | boii: get the driver(s) | 00:21 |
| ReggyLove | mo0nykit, yes | 00:21 |
| joebodo | !boil | sound | 00:22 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about boil | 00:22 |
| devdude | okay I'm out, thanks for the help though | 00:22 |
| joebodo | !sound | boil | 00:22 |
| ubottu | boil: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:22 |
| mranderson | if something is an svn ....is there a specific install process? | 00:22 |
| joebodo | mranderson you need an svn client | 00:22 |
| mranderson | do you know if ubuntu already has one? | 00:22 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: just to be sure if you followed correctly. If the port you want to open is 12345, your command should look like "netstat -4n | grep 12345" | 00:23 |
| ReggyLove | mo0nykit, i got it right | 00:23 |
| diogo_79 | when a system freezes (keyboard and mouse stops responding) where can i find the error in witch log in ubuntu 9.04 64bits? | 00:23 |
| joebodo | mranderson the applications are broken up into many repositories - it depends on what you want the source for | 00:23 |
| ReggyLove | mo0nykit, netstat -4n | grep 50001 | 00:23 |
| CJ1 | Wow I haven't use IRC in a long time =] | 00:23 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: It could be a firewall problem (iptables, and the like). I'm sorry I couldn't help any further... | 00:24 |
| Jordan_U | diogo_79: /var/log/syslog likely | 00:24 |
| thedude42 | mranderson, apt-get install subversion | 00:24 |

| iceroot | !anyone | CJ1 | 00:25 |
| ubottu | CJ1: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 00:25 |
| Jordan_U | graelin: If the problem has happened recently can you pastebin the output of "dmesg" ? | 00:25 |
| graelin | basically my mouse will crap out. unplugging/replugging it doesn't fix the problem. If I zap out , system hangs and I have to hard boot it. Very irksome | 00:26 |
| iceroot | is it possible to install an applicaion with apt-get only for one user? so other users dont see that application in gnome? | 00:26 |
| diogo_79 | what this meaning "HOME /USR/SBIN/CRON[15478]: (root) CMD ([ -x /usr/sbin/update-motd ] && /usr/sbin/update-motd 2>/dev/null) | 00:26 |
| diogo_79 | Oct 10 21:30:01 HOME /USR/SBIN/CRON[15739]: (root) CMD ([ -x /usr/sbin/update-motd ] && /usr/sbin/update-motd 2>/dev/null)" | 00:26 |
| foofish | iceroot: no, not with apt-get | 00:26 |
| mo0nykit | ReggyLove: you could also look into AppArmor. I haven't tinkered with that, but it could be related | 00:26 |

| iceroot | chris_: change the resolution | 00:28 |
| TheFuzzball | Is it possible that the burn speed could affect whether the LiveCD boots? | 00:28 |
| Jordan_U | iceroot: There is no standard way, you can use unix permissions or a custom apparmor profile to prevent them from running the application | 00:28 |
| foofish | TheFuzzball: given sufficiently crusty hardware, yes | 00:28 |
| graelin | TheFuzzball: Yes.. bad burns happen all the time with livecds | 00:28 |

| TheFuzzball | Funny, cause when I attempt to check the CD the menu freezes :D | 00:29 |
| chris_ | iceroot, yes i realize that but all resolutions never fix the problem in that its still always so big... | 00:29 |
| TheFuzzball | What is a recommeded speed to burn it at? | 00:29 |

| iceroot | hm, ~/apps/ with chmod 700 should work :) | 00:36 |
| Jordan_U | iceroot: It's usually not as much an issue of what users should be able to run what as it is what they should be able to change more generally, which policykit lets you choose quite well. That said I think it would probably be good to have a distinction between system packages and user packages which is not currently compatible with the way apt/dpkg work | 00:37 |

| arleslie | Jordan_U, I ran sudo adduser and added to the root group, then I used moduser -g root to make root the default group and removed all the other groups from the user | 00:40 |
| foofish | iceroot: well, removing them from the gui would probably be enough, then. i'm not sure why you'd want to try to stop them seeing them as tab-completions in the terminal too | 00:40 |
| Pyrophelia | graelin, i've read quite a bit, but I can't find out how to load balance the cable modems | 00:40 |
| joebodo | Pryo not sure that is possible | 00:40 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Its called bondig | 00:41 |
| joebodo | Pyro or that you would even want that | 00:41 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Its called bonding | 00:41 |
| iceroot | foofish: i dont want to disable for e.g. evolution on 50 accounts by hand and only 2 users can see it | 00:41 |
| foofish | iceroot: maybe you want to put your users in a chroot jail :) | 00:41 |
| Pyrophelia | http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO/ is pretty nice but it only talks about load balancing between other linux routers | 00:41 |
| arleslie | Jordan_U, so now I can't run sudo any more, and I don't have root access, so I basically can't do anything | 00:41 |
| ubuntu | can anyone suggest how to find CPU temp in Ubuntu ? | 00:41 |
| iceroot | foofish: yes, chroot was my thinking too | 00:41 |
| m0r0n | How do I install something when I downloaded it and there is no make file | 00:41 |
| Jordan_U | arleslie: You can start in single user mode | 00:42 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Why anyone wouldnt want to utilize full internet speed at all times ill never understand. | 00:42 |
| foofish | iceroot: i'm pretty sure you could script the gui tweaks | 00:42 |
| iceroot | m0r0n: what program? | 00:42 |
| Jordan_U | arleslie: Or chroot from a liveCD | 00:42 |
| Pyrophelia | WanHouse: i'm pretty sure that's different | 00:42 |
| m0r0n | iceroot: Nexuiz | 00:42 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Why ? | 00:42 |
| netbook | Anyone know how to install shmfs kernel module? | 00:42 |
| arleslie | Jordan_U, how would I use chroot? I can't use single user mode as that is started as default - running BackTrack | 00:42 |
| Jordan_U | arleslie: Note that you probably actually wanted to add the user to the "admin" group so that had privilege to use sudo | 00:42 |
| graelin | Pyrophelia: Try this yet? http://blog.taragana.com/index.php/archive/how-to-load-balancing-failover-with-dual-multi-wan-adsl-cable-connections-on-linux/ | 00:43 |
| arleslie | Jordan_U, well it was already an admin, I just wanted to have a second root user and well it back fired on me | 00:43 |
| leo___ | I installed apache2 in ubuntu. From a client, I can't open in browser http://172.31.134.148, but it works in the same machine, i.e the server. Why is this so? | 00:43 |
| iceroot | m0r0n: sudo apt-get install nexuiz | 00:43 |
| Jordan_U | arleslie: I don't think having a "second root user" makes much sense | 00:43 |
| iceroot | m0r0n: its in the repos 8.04 - 9.04 | 00:43 |
| Pyrophelia | WanHouse: I will be binding 2 gigE cards to our switch using LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol), but that is only possible because I control the switch. the cable modems are different because I have no access to the circuit they connect to so I can't use them like T1 circuits | 00:44 |
| m0r0n | iceroot: It installs a version that is 334mb, when I got it off the site it's 888mb or something I think that one is outdated | 00:44 |
| arleslie | Jordan_U, well I never knew the root password, so I was going to make another root user so I wouldn't have to type sudo all the time. | 00:44 |
| graelin | Pyrophelia: Looks like transparent failover will be less than trivial, but doable | 00:44 |
| Jordan_U | arleslie: You boot from a LiveCD, mount your /partition, then run "sudo chroot /path/to/mountpoint" | 00:44 |
| iceroot | m0r0n: apt-cache show nexuiz will tell you the version | 00:44 |
| Pyrophelia | god if I could etherbond 2 cable modems I'd love it | 00:44 |
| Jordan_U | arleslie: You could have changed the root password with "sudo passwd" or, even better, just used "sudo -s" to get a root shell | 00:45 |
| arleslie | Jordan_U, what else do I need to do | 00:45 |
| arleslie | thanks | 00:45 |
| Pyrophelia | well that's a lie, i'd rather etherbond to FiOS lines but we can't get FiOS in the office :( | 00:45 |
| Pyrophelia | s/to/two | 00:45 |
| infid | i added 'term screen-256color' to my .screenrc in ubuntu but it's still showing TERM=screen. any idea why? | 00:45 |
| netbook | Anyone know how to install shm filesystem? | 00:45 |
| m0r0n | iceroot: Ok it's outdated | 00:46 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Its like for security ? To be able to remove a line and avoid something else affecting nets ? | 00:46 |
| Pyrophelia | graelin, i'm reading that post now, ty. | 00:46 |
| iceroot | m0r0n: then use the install instuctions from the website or look for a *.deb | 00:46 |
| iceroot | m0r0n: maybe its a binary you download, so no need to install | 00:46 |
| Royall | Ubuntu should impliment something similar to Google's Product Ideas | 00:48 |
| Pyrophelia | WanHouse: we don't need redundancy, it's a relatively stable connection. but it's cable so it gets bogged down pretty quick. I'd like the router to load balance the cable modems so when 1 modem reaches it's peak bandwidth the router directs traffic at the other modem. Or when somebody needs to send a critical upload, nobody else can use the modem the uploader needs | 00:48 |
| Royall | that the developers would actually /review/ | 00:48 |

| dhillon-v10 | hi all, I need some help with eclipse and bzr integration I just can't get it working | 00:48 |
| iceroot | !details | dhillon-v10 | 00:49 |
| foofish | Royall: brainstorm.ubuntu.com | 00:49 |
| ubottu | dhillon-v10: 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 ..." | 00:49 |
| Pyrophelia | WanHouse: we use comcast at our office and the upload service is terrible. if somebody starts to download anything (www.google.com) when your uploading, the upload stream drops to ~4KBps or less. and takes a very long time for it to reach a respectable speed again | 00:49 |
| dhillon-v10 | <iceroot> hi, I installed the bzr plugin for eclipse I want to use the team features what should I do | 00:50 |
| Pyrophelia | I want something that will let me set some pretty specific exceptions. such as mac:00:00:00:00 is uploading to ip:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx route all other traffic to cable modem 2 | 00:50 |
| netbook | I am getting error "Unknown filesystem shmfs" | 00:50 |
| iceroot | dhillon-v10: ask in #eclipse | 00:50 |
| yuri__ | need some help with chmod. how do i make a read only file writable? | 00:50 |
| dhillon-v10 | <iceroot> thanks for help | 00:50 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Ouch ;) ... Ok, then bonding (etherbonding) could be neat. | 00:50 |
| Jordan_U | netbook: What are you trying to do / Where are you seeing that error? | 00:51 |
| Pyrophelia | WanHouse, I would love to etherbond the modems, but my understanding of the technology means I can't bond cable modems unless I get access to the circuit on comcasts side, which will never happen | 00:51 |
| Pyrophelia | WanHouse, they're already trying to sell us a fractional T1 for $700/month | 00:51 |
| Pyrophelia | not even a T3, T1 for gods sake | 00:51 |
| iceroot | yuri__: r=4,w=2,x=1 so if you want read, write and execute use the 7 (4+2+1), if you want only read use 4 (4+0+0) and that for you,group and others, so chmod 755 would be rwx,r-x,r-x | 00:51 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Hefty note. google for the bonding. Its not that hard | 00:52 |
| NeoCicak | hi.... i'm having problem with rdesktop..... if i tried to scroll down the window (on remote desktop, obviously), the refresh rate is so slow (i.e sluggish). this does not happen on windows, running inside virtual box on the same machine... | 00:52 |
| Pyrophelia | <insert bad word here> comcast | 00:52 |
| WanHouse | hehe | 00:52 |
| yuri__ | iceroot: thanks | 00:52 |
| iceroot | yuri__: so chmod 755 file will put rwx,r-x,r-x file | 00:52 |
| Pyrophelia | WanHouse, I know how to etherbond, what I'm saying is I can't do that to cable modems. that is unless my understanding is radically missinformed | 00:52 |
| joebodo | Pyro why not use QOS | 00:53 |
| WanHouse | QOS for Priority, yeah | 00:53 |
| Pyrophelia | joebodo, a lack of understanding of what it is. | 00:53 |
| netbook | Joran_U I am trying to get mpd to work... i have shmfs in my fstab but it is an 'unknown parition' | 00:53 |
| === frog_ is now known as zabka | ||
| Pyrophelia | i'll read up on it | 00:53 |
| netbook | Jordan_U do you know the apt-get pkg or kernel module I can download to get it working? | 00:54 |
| WanHouse | "Quality Of Service"... Degrade for some... | 00:54 |
| NeoCicak | what do people here use to do remote desktop to windows machine? | 00:54 |
| Pyrophelia | degrade for some | 00:54 |
| Pyrophelia | what do you mean by that | 00:54 |
| iceroot | NeoCicak: vnc | 00:54 |
| joebodo | PYro AFAIK you can balance traffic between modems - but you can use routing rules | 00:54 |
| NeoCicak | iceroot...hmm... not rdp? i'm having trouble to get full screen on vnc | 00:55 |
| joebodo | Pyro but it sounds more like a qos issue | 00:55 |
| iceroot | NeoCicak: i am using vnc, i dont know rdp, sorry | 00:55 |
| WanHouse | Pyrophelia: Degrade/Upgrade/etcgrade as it suits your setup. | 00:55 |
| matelot | hi when I use GnuPG on commandline - how to disable the pop up dialog for passphrase ? | 00:55 |
| Pyrophelia | joebodo, na, that's just par for the course for comcast around here. it was same thing when I had it in my home | 00:56 |
| devdude | can I easily (using cryptsetup) change a volume that uses a password to a keyfile that automounts instead? | 00:56 |
| devdude | I suppose I'd have to mess with pam a bit, but big deal | 00:56 |
| Pyrophelia | joebodo, switched to FiOS and have never been happier. | 00:56 |
| WanHouse | matelot: unsetenv GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS (or something like it) | 00:56 |
| matelot | ok let me google that thanks wanhouse | 00:57 |
| WanHouse | matelot: "unset" | 00:57 |

| codebrainz | has anyone gotten 3 monitors working with 2 video cards with Compiz? | 00:57 |
| Pyrophelia | codebrainz, I did awhile ago but it had a bad bug, I had to disable my desktop | 00:58 |
| codebrainz | Pyrophelia: what bug? | 00:58 |
| Pyrophelia | I had to disable my desktop meaning no icons | 00:58 |
| devdude | anyone have experience using cryptsetup? | 00:58 |
| Pyrophelia | also, you had to create a desktop wall paper that would span the combined resolution of all the monitors | 00:59 |
| codebrainz | Pyrophelia: so if I disable my desktop, it will let me enable Compiz effects? | 00:59 |
| Jordan_U | netbook: What are you trying to do? | 00:59 |
| netbook | Joran_U I am trying to get mpd to work... i have shmfs in my fstab but it is an 'unknown parition' | 00:59 |
| netbook | Jordan_U do you know the apt-get pkg or kernel module I can download to get it working? | 00:59 |
| iarp | hey, installed 9.04 server 3 or 4 days ago, all it does is openssh, apache, php,mysql, and a few other programs. Everyday at 08:30:15 the system log reports eth0 goes down and it would seem the computer shutdown as all other logs stop at that exact time and dont continue until i physically turn it back on | 00:59 |
| codebrainz | Pyrophelia: I'm using Xinerama enabled through the NVidia driver utility | 01:00 |
| Pyrophelia | codebrainz, your best bet is to ask the guys in the #compiz channel. it's been awhile since i've used it, infact my linux box has been in run level 3 for almost a year | 01:00 |
| david__ | I will pay someone $50 to help me get synaptics to stop seeing any 'rub' as a double click. | 01:00 |
| codebrainz | Pyrophelia: hahaha, ok | 01:00 |
| arielCo | Hello everyone. I installed {totem-xine,w32codecs,gstreamer0.10-pitfdll} so Totem could play WMA9 from a video. (it said "Missing plugin: gstreamer|0.10|totem|Windows Media Audio 9 decoder|decoder-audio/x-wma"). Nothing has improved - same message. What now? | 01:00 |
| david__ | Paypal! I'm on the latest ubuntu | 01:00 |
| Jordan_U | netbook: How did you install mpd? | 01:00 |
| mo0nykit | Does OpenBox have virtual desktops? | 01:00 |
| netbook | Jordan_U apt-get install mpd | 01:00 |
| Jordan_U | mo0nykit: Yes | 01:00 |
| Jordan_U | netbook: Strange, it works for me without error in jaunty | 01:01 |
| netbook | Jordan_U do you know how to install the shm filesystem? | 01:01 |
| Jimmio | beta support in #ubuntu+1, right? | 01:01 |
| Flannel | Jimmio: yes | 01:01 |
| devdude | David__: hehe same issue here I forgot to install the synaptics tool as well | 01:01 |
| devdude | there is a synaptics package for ubuntu | 01:02 |
| devdude | I'm gonna try it out myself, maybe it will fix the issue | 01:02 |
| CarlFK | um... why does my numpad work on ubuntu box A but not B? numlock light goes on/off, but in either state it ignores those keys (doesn't even arrow) | 01:02 |
| mo0nykit | Jordan_U: thanks. I'm gonna try it out now | 01:02 |
| devdude | david__: also, there is a guide on how to disable the touchpad while typing | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | netbook: I think that shmfs is not ramfs, though I am not sure. And the mpd package should depend on anything you would need so I don't think installing anything will fix the error you are getting | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | netbook: *now | 01:02 |
| mo0nykit | Does openbox also have the scale (expose in Mac) feature like in compiz? | 01:03 |
| netbook | Jordan_U ok | 01:03 |
| sixto | D | 01:03 |
| david__ | devdude: hm! link? Problem is mine totally ignores my Xorg.conf references | 01:04 |
| devdude | devdude: lemme find you the guide | 01:04 |
| m0r0n | iceroot: All the site said was to unzip and run, but whenI click on the exe it just says it can't | 01:04 |
| devdude | I will try it with you because I have the same annoyances | 01:04 |
| devdude | oops | 01:04 |
| devdude | haha | 01:04 |
| devdude | I meant david__ | 01:04 |
| devdude | ugh | 01:04 |
| FloodBot1 | devdude: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:04 |
| david__ | It's rather annoying to be honest, I'm on the verge of installing windows as a result. I send ~400 emails a day and honestly, it clicks 2-3 times per email | 01:04 |
| Jordan_U | mo0nykit: No, you need a window manager that uses glx_texture_from_pixmap ( 3D compositing ) to do that. openbox + xcompmgr might let you do it but I doubt it | 01:04 |
| devdude | david__: its annoying the hell out of me as well. | 01:05 |
| mo0nykit | Jordan_U: thanks! memo to self: xcompmgr | 01:05 |
| david__ | I fixed it before on my ibm t42 | 01:05 |

| Ghone | I'm suddenly having a no audio issue with flash movies under Jaunty. This is a very recent development. Both flashplug-installer and gnash fail to produce audio. What should I be looking for? | 01:20 |
| WanHouse | MenZa: Installing binaries is just like copying files. | 01:20 |
| FoolishOwl | mint, aside from that, synaptic should be able to detect broken packages. | 01:20 |
| mint | so its not a good idea to try to save my install? | 01:20 |
| RegressLess | why does gnome-panel use half of my cpu most of the time? | 01:20 |
| === timo is now known as Yondering | ||
| WanHouse | MenZa: If you pull the power itll be half done. | 01:21 |
| dandaman | something odd | 01:21 |
| dandaman | my speakers arent as loud in ubuntu compared to windows | 01:21 |
| KyleK__ | MenZa: i fired up the 9.04 livecd with only 256mb of ram on a p2, i just looked online and it says 384 :( | 01:21 |
| Hodapp | how can I figure out what is holding the audio device open? | 01:21 |
| dandaman | when i have the same volume settings | 01:21 |
| shazbotmcnasty | Does anyone have any idea on how to mount my cd/dvd drive | 01:21 |
| MenZa | mo0nykit: Read at the top - it says "Login to Edit" - alternatively "Edit" if you are logged in | 01:21 |
| Hodapp | this happens too often... sound will work for a few days, then every program will either crash or say it's busy | 01:21 |
| shazbotmcnasty | it's a GSA-416 LG drive | 01:21 |
| MenZa | KyleK__: It'll run on that system, but you will probably want the alternate CD instead... and stay away from GNOME - use Xfce instead. | 01:21 |
| WanHouse | MenZa: /MenZa ;) | 01:21 |
| MenZa | (or an even lighter DE/WM) | 01:21 |
| shazbotmcnasty | I checked in /etc/fstab and it's not listed, that file only lists my hdd partitions | 01:22 |
| KyleK__ | does the alternate cd give me a menu to make a raid1? | 01:22 |
| MenZa | mint: I'm an idiot, I didn't read the upgrade part. | 01:22 |
| shazbotmcnasty | although I'm not sure if it's suppoed to | 01:22 |
| MenZa | Also, @WanHouse | 01:22 |
| KyleK__ | I'm just trying to avoid having to set up a software raid myself :) | 01:22 |
| graelin | shazbotmcnasty: mount /dev/sd0 /media/dvd | 01:22 |
| WanHouse | np | 01:22 |
| MenZa | mint: Force an fsck, then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -f | 01:22 |
| mo0nykit | MenZa: yes I have already logged in. I need help on where to contribute. It's related to the three topics I listed. There is probably an #ubuntuwiki channel or something. Like #blenderwiki for blender | 01:23 |
| KyleK__ | MenZa: do you know of i can install to a software raid1 with the alternate cd? | 01:23 |
| mint | can anyone refresh me on CLI network commands in case that doesn't work? | 01:23 |
| MenZa | mo0nykit: I don't think there is one, no. | 01:23 |
| MenZa | KyleK__: I'd assume so - the alternate CD is much more flexible than the Desktop CD. | 01:23 |
| Brando753 | is there a way to prevent someone from changing your password in recovery mode? | 01:23 |
| Flannel | mo0nykit: Try #ubuntu-doc | 01:23 |
| mint | MenZa: what's the "install -f" part? | 01:23 |
| MenZa | mo0nykit: What Flannel said. | 01:24 |
| Flannel | Brando753: Don't let them get to the recovery mode | 01:24 |
| Hodapp | Anybody ever encountered this? fuser -v /dev/snd/* says nothing's using sound, but all the programs say it's busy. | 01:24 |
| RegressLess | can I make gnome-panel more efficient? | 01:24 |
| mo0nykit | Flannel, MenZa: okay thanks :) | 01:24 |
| MenZa | mint: It force-installs all packages that are on your system, but haven't been installed yet (from update-manager) | 01:24 |
| Brando753 | Flannel: and if this is a public computer how would i acheive this? | 01:24 |
| shazbotmcnasty | graelin, http://pastebin.com/m9e167f7 | 01:24 |
| MenZa | mint: I like to see of it as checking whether something's broken or not, and if so, fix it. | 01:24 |
| natestewat | my windows wont minimize to my tool bar how do i change that | 01:24 |
| KyleK__ | hrm or i could do server, too many choices :) | 01:25 |
| mint | what's the restart networking command please? | 01:25 |
| Pyrophelia | if en0 down | 01:25 |
| Pyrophelia | aif en0 up | 01:26 |
| Pyrophelia | er if en0 up | 01:26 |
| RegressLess | can I make gnome-panel more efficient? | 01:26 |
| Pyrophelia | mint, is it wireless or ethernet? | 01:26 |
| Brando753 | Flannel: and if this is a public computer how would i acheive this? | 01:26 |
| mint | Pyrophelia: wireless -sorry forgot to say that | 01:26 |
| RegressLess | or can I replace gnome-panel with something more efficient, but also customizable? | 01:26 |
| Pyrophelia | mint: type ifconfig and see which interface is grabbing the ip | 01:27 |
| natestewat | i cant minimize my windows without them disappearing how do i fix this? | 01:27 |
| Pyrophelia | mint: or is the problem that it's not grabbing an ip | 01:27 |
| Flannel | Brando753: putting a GRUB password on the recovery console entries would be one way, you'll also need ot lock down booting from CDs/USB/etc too | 01:27 |
| mint | Pyrophelia: it wlan0 - its not grabbing an IP | 01:27 |
| Brando753 | Flannel: so a bios and a grub password? | 01:27 |
| Pyrophelia | mint: have you configured the ssid and password? | 01:28 |
| infid | i added 'term screen-256color' to my .screenrc in ubuntu but it's still showing TERM=screen any idea what could be setting TERM to screen, overriding my ~/.screenrc. as far as i can see /etc/profile, .bashrc and /etc/screenrc arent doing it | 01:28 |
| Flannel | Brando753: If a BIOS password also prevents booting to other media, yeah. (You can configure it to do so, but Iw on't claim it does by itself) | 01:28 |
| mint | Pyrophelia: open at moment | 01:28 |
| === anigma_ is now known as anigma | ||
| graelin | shazbotmcnasty: check /dev and see if its showing up... sd(x), dvd(x) scd(x) cdrw(x) cdrom(x) etc. If it's being seen, these are somethings they could be identified as | 01:29 |
| Pyrophelia | mint: ok you can try: sudo if wlan0 down | 01:29 |
| Brando753 | Flannel: im not familiar with working on grub, how would i set a password on those entries? | 01:29 |
| Pyrophelia | sudo if wlan0 up | 01:29 |
| Pyrophelia | Pyrophelia, but it doesn't see the SSID it's a moot point | 01:29 |

| [TSK] | Greeting. Which channel is best to ask questions about 9.10? | 01:30 |
| gabe__ | hello fellows, I just have a quick question. I'm trying to view an online course which tries to use Shockwave web player and since I don't have it, firefox directs me to the adobe web site to download it. Now, I figured there isn't a version for Linux but in firefox under Preferences and the Applications tab, there is a Shockwave file configuration that has Play within Firefox selected, however it does not work | 01:30 |
| graelin | shazbotmcnasty: This is the entry I have in my fstab: /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 | 01:30 |

| Flannel | infid: Make sure you have ncurses-base installed | 01:31 |
| shazbotmcnasty | graelin, this is my fstab: http://pastebin.com/m49c59ed5 | 01:31 |
| bubble-red | I need some quick help, I cannot load the Ubuntu live CD. I get a kernel panic error any way to get this working ? | 01:31 |
| infid | Flannel i do, i can manuall export TERM=screen-256color and it works | 01:32 |
| [TSK] | Is anyone here using the latest 9.10 betas and having trouble with nvidia mouse pointer being invisible? | 01:32 |
| shazbotmcnasty | graelin, I would just do that by trying to run a cd and then enter dmesg | tail ? | 01:32 |
| Flannel | infid: Hmm, Did you restart screen once you changed the rc? | 01:32 |
| infid | Flannel yes | 01:32 |
| merlin_ | usser, are you there? | 01:32 |
| Flannel | infid: I... had this problem, let me look back and see what I did to fix it | 01:32 |
| infid | Flannel k thanks | 01:32 |
| Flannel | infid: Ah! try ncurses-term | 01:33 |
| roffe | [TSK], #ubuntu+1 for talk about 9.10 | 01:33 |

| [TSK] | TY, roffe | 01:33 |
| Comrade-Sergei | How do i get the audio to go to external speakers on a unibody macbook pro? | 01:33 |
| canthus13 | bubble-red: Just re-burn it at the lowest speed you can. | 01:33 |
| bubble-red | canthus13: I have tried other linux live CD's with the same result but I will try re-burning the CD | 01:33 |
| infid | Flannel just installed ncurses-term but it didnt change it | 01:34 |
| canthus13 | bubble-red: Just remember to use the absolute lowest speed. | 01:34 |
| Flannel | infid: and then, I use screen-256color-bce, -bce is probably OK for you too. | 01:34 |
| infid | flannel i think it might be because of the ~/.screen-profiles/ | 01:34 |
| infid | i'll try -bce first though | 01:35 |
| Flannel | infid: I've no experience with screen profiles, so sure. | 01:35 |

| gabe__ | foolishOwn: however I've got flash installed and the website asks for shockwave specifically | 01:38 |
| canthus13 | dandaman: go to the command line, run alsamixer. See if something is turned down there. | 01:38 |
| dandaman | and on ubuntu my volume is like halfway | 01:38 |

| devdude | but you can't change the resolution | 02:00 |
| Madcamper | ok devdude | 02:00 |
| === fernando is now known as Guest61292 | ||
| Madcamper | thedude42 where cna i get the linux nvidia drivers? | 02:00 |
| William-Gentoo | what does `basename $0` mean in bash shell? | 02:01 |
| devdude | Madcamper: all half-life 1 & 2 engine games have a command line parameter for resolution | 02:01 |
| thedude42 | www.nividia.com | 02:01 |
| Bento2 | Ok | 02:01 |
| Madcamper | i used the comand line | 02:01 |
| Madcamper | env WINEPREFIX="/home/madcamper/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" -fullscreen -width 800 -height 600 -heapsize 512000 +map_background none "$@" -dxlevel 80 -applaunch 240 | 02:01 |
| devdude | Madcamper: in other words (for example), hl2 -game css -width -height | 02:01 |
| devdude | yeah | 02:01 |
| devdude | and it doesnt work? | 02:01 |
| Madcamper | doenst change res no | 02:01 |
| zamba | does anyone know of a suite for automatically starting (WoL) and shutting down (ssh - poweroff) computers in a LAN? | 02:01 |
| devdude | k | 02:01 |
| zamba | i'm thinking a web gui | 02:01 |
| devdude | Madcamper: A) check out wine's config, or B) I'd look up cedega or crossover, those are very good for that | 02:01 |
| Madcamper | the res in CS Is like 2468x900 lmfao | 02:01 |
| devdude | lol | 02:01 |
| Madcamper | but i have to pay for those though | 02:02 |
| Madcamper | dont i? | 02:02 |
| devdude | yeah I know :( | 02:02 |
| devdude | crossover is free | 02:02 |
| devdude | cedega isn't | 02:02 |
| Madcamper | crossover is? | 02:02 |
| devdude | yeah | 02:02 |
| FloodBot1 | devdude: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:02 |
| devdude | but I don't remember where to get it. | 02:02 |
| Madcamper | google ftw | 02:02 |
| eurythmia | if I wanted to go about installing ubuntu from the ubuntu-desktop CD, but using ubuntu-minimal instead of ubuntu-desktop as my base system, how would I go about doing that? | 02:02 |
| thedude42 | eurythmia, alternate install CD | 02:03 |
| Madcamper | how do i uninstall the ubuntu nvidia drivers? | 02:03 |
| Jordan_U | eurythmia: Install full Ubuntu, then remove everything but ubuntu-minimal | 02:03 |
| devdude | eurythmia: hehe, well this is a bug, but if you use unetbootin, and flash alternate on it ( | 02:03 |
| devdude | eurythmia: alternate install cd anyhow will do the trick | 02:03 |
| mechdave | zamba, have a read of this --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=234588 | 02:03 |
| devdude | thedude42 says so, and it forced me to use minimal on my usb install.. so it must hav eit | 02:04 |
| eurythmia | thedude42: didn't have any luck with that last time I tried. After I have the alternate-cd in, what do I do to get it to install ubuntu-minimal? | 02:04 |
| thedude42 | Madcamper, if you go to the nvidia site they tell you how on the download page, but basically you need to kill X and log in to one of the tty terminals | 02:04 |
| Madcamper | ok | 02:04 |
| thedude42 | run the script from there | 02:04 |
| devdude | thedude42: actually there's a trick around that | 02:04 |
| devdude | you just run it like nvidia-185.14-blahblah.run --no-x-check | 02:04 |
| Madcamper | crossover chromium is what im looking for? | 02:04 |
| devdude | well sudo | 02:04 |
| devdude | Madcamper: I think so. | 02:04 |
| Madcamper | ok | 02:04 |
| dermot | Hi. can anyone tell me how to activate my Verizon usb modem in ubuntu | 02:04 |
| devdude | lemme check it out myself | 02:04 |
| FloodBot1 | devdude: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:04 |
| Fr4g0u7 | thedude42 Thanks alot man been trying to figure this out for a while now! | 02:04 |
| devdude | no | 02:04 |
| zamba | mechdave: it's no problem using WoL, it works just perfectly.. what i'm looking for is a suite/system that automates this.. so that non-tech savvy users can schedule up and down for different computers | 02:05 |
| devdude | web browser hehe | 02:05 |
| MenZa | dermot: Plug it in - then type 'lsusb' in a terminal. What output do you get - in a terminal? | 02:05 |
| zamba | mechdave: and a web gui :) | 02:05 |
| thedude42 | eurythmia, did you not get to the package selection screen in the installer? | 02:05 |
| === nibbler_ is now known as nibbler | ||
| MenZa | dermot: Err, that second terminal was supposed to be 'a pastebin' | 02:05 |
| thedude42 | Fr4g0u7, no prob | 02:05 |
| chinos | hola | 02:05 |
| dermot | ok i will try that | 02:05 |
| devdude | Madcamper: damn, not free anymore | 02:06 |
| MenZa | dermot: That should give me a bit more information to work with | 02:06 |
| mechdave | zamba, that I have never seen, but you can do it all through cron and a master server I spoze | 02:06 |
| Madcamper | crossover isnt? | 02:06 |
| devdude | doesn't look like it | 02:06 |
| Madcamper | cause im dling cxchromium_0.9.0-1_i386.deb lol | 02:06 |
| eurythmia | thedude42: I think I did, but apparently I made an incorrect assumption about it :/ | 02:06 |
| dermot | is there anyway to activate it graphically though? | 02:06 |
| devdude | lol | 02:06 |
| devdude | oh ok | 02:06 |
| thedude42 | afaik crossover was never free | 02:06 |
| Madcamper | http://www.codeweavers.com/services/ports/chromium/ | 02:06 |
| zamba | mechdave: i'm thinking about starting a project about it myself | 02:07 |
| MenZa | dermot: Possibly - the lsusb command is going to give me the exact make/model/version of the modem, and I'll have a look around on how to do it | 02:07 |
| dermot | i can only go online if i have my computer running in windows with the modem first | 02:07 |
| chinos | where i am? | 02:07 |
| bobo123_ | how to specify local file in rlogin? | 02:07 |
| zamba | mechdave: has to be some web gui stuff | 02:07 |
| thedude42 | eurythmia, from what I recall you can choose the option 'manual package selection' and that will get you the choice you want | 02:07 |
| dermot | ok | 02:07 |
| MenZa | dermot: Oh, well type out the line which deals with the USB modem. It *should* be pretty easy to make out. | 02:07 |
| devdude | its crossover games | 02:07 |
| Madcamper | nvidia-185.14-blahblah.run --no-x-check will you said right? | 02:07 |
| zamba | mechdave: and support for schedules | 02:07 |

| mechdave | zamba, you could write it using php and maybe some perl to run the system stuff | 02:07 |
| devdude | Madcamper: yeah but you typically need to uninstall the original driver | 02:07 |
| phyizal | Ubuntu 9 stopped auto-mounting external usb hard disk, even if you specify it in fstab. | 02:08 |
| Madcamper | devdude: "its cross over games, not the browser" was that directed to me? | 02:08 |
| devdude | Madcamper: and if you have a working driver, I assume this is a wine issue | 02:08 |
| phyizal | any idea? | 02:08 |
| devdude | It was directed at you, yes | 02:08 |
| Madcamper | ok | 02:08 |
| mechdave | zamba, although it could be a pretty big security hole!! :) | 02:08 |
| Madcamper | so i dled wrong thing? >< | 02:08 |
| MenZa | dermot: Try ... putting that in a !pastebin instead | 02:08 |
| devdude | :) | 02:08 |
| devdude | yup | 02:08 |
| Madcamper | bah | 02:08 |
| devdude | it says full compatability with games too | 02:08 |
| devdude | all staem | 02:08 |
| devdude | steam | 02:08 |
| mechdave | !pastebin > dermot | 02:09 |
| ubottu | dermot, please see my private message | 02:09 |
| dermot | the top one was for the modem | 02:09 |
| Madcamper | wait huh? | 02:09 |
| bobo123_ | ubottu: how to specify local file in rsh? | 02:09 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:09 |
| devdude | Madcamper: nevermind | 02:09 |
| dermot | Bus 003 Device 002: ID 1410:6000 Novatel Wireless (sory for posting all of it | 02:09 |
| MenZa | I'll have a look around, dermot | 02:09 |
| Madcamper | k | 02:09 |
| zamba | mechdave: sure.. so i'll need good authentication mechanisms and make sure that only shutdown is being sent :) | 02:09 |
| mechdave | zamba, correct, I would use https at the least and maybe even ssh via a web browser | 02:10 |
| MenZa | http://www.brighthub.com/computing/linux/blog/archive/2009/02/05/using-a-verizon-wireless-modem-with-ubuntu-8-10-intrepid-ibex.aspx <- dermot, try looking at that. | 02:10 |
| dermot | thatnks | 02:10 |
| zamba | mechdave: but for my purposes, it'll be on a server behind NAT, so not that big a concern | 02:10 |
| Madcamper | "nvidia-185.14-blahblah.run --no-x-check" what do i type in front of it to run it? | 02:10 |
| bobo123_ | MenZa: how to specify local file in rsh? | 02:10 |
| mechdave | zamba, have you written much php stuff before? | 02:10 |
| MenZa | bobo123_: I dunno, why don't you ask the channel? | 02:10 |
| devdude | I have 2 encrypted volumes (in this case /, and /home), I'd like to make it such that I enter the PW for /, and the keyfile for /home is located on /something and its auto decrypted before I log in.. is there any way to do this easily? | 02:10 |
| zamba | mechdave: quite a bit.. but i loathe it :p | 02:11 |
| karol_ | guys if i upgrade to 9.10 now and its alfa will i get the full final version on 28.10.09 automatically? | 02:11 |
| zamba | mechdave: no challenge, just typing the same stuff over and over again :p | 02:11 |
| devdude | Madcamper: this assumes you grabbed it from the nvidia site, and you want to sudo it as well | 02:11 |
| bobo123_ | MenZa: nobody responds | 02:11 |
| Madcamper | ya | 02:11 |
| MenZa | bobo123_: Then wait. | 02:11 |
| Madcamper | ok | 02:11 |
| devdude | Madcamper: but if you say you have a working driver, don't mess with it | 02:11 |
| karol_ | guys if i upgrade to 9.10 now and its alfa will i get the full final version on 28.10.09 automatically? | 02:11 |
| Madcamper | ok, cause i could get into a server, just the resolution is screwed up | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | karol_: #ubuntu+1 is currently the 9.10 channel | 02:12 |
| Madcamper | within CSS, and it doesnt give me other choices in teh CSS options | 02:12 |
| Flannel | karol_: You will. It's beta now, not alpha. And you should ask about it in #ubuntu+1, not here, thanks | 02:12 |
| Brando753 | will my raid controller card work in ubuntu? | 02:12 |
| dermot | it helps a bit but i dont get the option to connect to verizon unless i use the card with windows first | 02:12 |
| Madcamper | any kind of libraries i need in the wine config ? | 02:12 |
| Brando753 | or does ubuntu not support raid? | 02:12 |
| thedude42 | Brando753, probably | 02:12 |
| thedude42 | Brando753, typically ubuntu supports most hardware out of the box | 02:13 |
| Madcamper | devdude: i mine as well try the nvidia driver just to test? | 02:13 |
| devdude | Madcamper: doubtful that it's the issue | 02:13 |
| devdude | you may just screw up your install instead | 02:14 |
| arleslie | Can someone help me with grub, I'm having issues with it trying to load BackTrack on (hd0,2) | 02:14 |
| devdude | and come back here asking how to get it working properly again | 02:14 |
| Madcamper | if i cant do that, then what else could i do in the wine config? doesnt look like theres many choices in the wine config | 02:14 |
| thedude42 | the nvidia drivers are usually pretty safe, and easy to remove as well | 02:14 |
| devdude | I had to uninstall all traces of my previous nvidia | 02:14 |
| devdude | then manually do it | 02:14 |
| devdude | after grabbing like | 02:14 |
| poseidon | Just saw this. --> http://www.hulu.com/labs/hulu-desktop-linux | 02:15 |
| devdude | build-essential, linux-headers-myver, etc | 02:15 |
| devdude | its annoying | 02:15 |
| Madcamper | well its good experience, it may work for me? | 02:15 |
| devdude | it may | 02:15 |
| devdude | I doubt it | 02:15 |
| devdude | but it may :0 | 02:15 |
| Madcamper | dont know till we try | 02:15 |
| devdude | read a guide on building it | 02:15 |
| devdude | you need um | 02:15 |
| devdude | linux-headers-{uname -r} | 02:16 |
| devdude | I think | 02:16 |
| devdude | and build-essential | 02:16 |
| Madcamper | to run the downloaded nvidia driver? | 02:16 |
| devdude | yeah | 02:16 |
| Madcamper | kk | 02:16 |
| devdude | then you need to remove the current driver | 02:16 |
| thedude42 | Madcamper, the reason I was suspecting your drivers was because the driver is the hook that user space processors have access to do things like alter your screen resolution, and since steam should be able to do it, but it's not, indicates to me that the driver isn't presenting the X layer appropriately to the application | 02:16 |
| Madcamper | makes sense | 02:17 |
| GSF1200S | can someone explain to me what an incremental backup does that rsync doesnt? | 02:17 |
| devdude | GSF1200S: well I don't know what either are.. but you don't want something that synchronizes and if a file is gone in what it's synchronizes with, it gets rid of the file from the backup folder | 02:17 |
| zamba | GSF1200S: rsync just merges, whereas incremental backup generally creates and stores the differences | 02:17 |
| zamba | GSF1200S: for rollback purposes | 02:18 |
| devdude | and if rsync does that.. you lose whatever you did | 02:18 |
| devdude | like lets say I have blah.txt, I acidentally save it empty.. then I synchronize, my backup will be empty | 02:18 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, typically when people talk about incremental backup, they are talking about file diff, whereas rsync is looking at the disk blocks | 02:18 |
| devdude | I dunno if rsync does that | 02:18 |
| GSF1200S | rsync only deletes the source file if the --delete option is in the command | 02:19 |
| devdude | does ANYONE here have a good idea about cryptsetup before I go? I've been asking for like 2 hours with no responses | 02:20 |
| Madcamper | for the linux-headers do i want the "linux-headers-lbm-2.6.28-14-generic" ? | 02:20 |
| devdude | yes | 02:20 |
| devdude | err no | 02:20 |
| devdude | not ibm | 02:20 |
| devdude | and make sure you're -14 | 02:20 |
| FloodBot1 | devdude: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:20 |
| GSF1200S | zamba: Im trying to understand this. What do you mean by just merges? The backup folder I have has everything verbatim that my /home does? If I lose /home drive, and I put in a new one and rsync the backup, wouldnt that work fine? | 02:20 |
| Madcamper | oh linux-headers-2.6.28-5-386? | 02:20 |
| pjustice13 | Ubuntu is not recognizing my wireless card. Can someone help please? | 02:20 |
| devdude | madcamper: uname -r | 02:20 |
| devdude | madcamper: linux-headers-[whatever uname -r says] | 02:21 |
| Madcamper | k | 02:21 |
| KnifeySpooney | What does the 5 mean when the source says something like 'See fstab(5).'? Does this have to do with a man page? | 02:21 |
| canthus13 | KnifeySpooney: Yes. | 02:21 |
| fax | man 5 fstab | 02:21 |
| devdude | KnifeySpooney: page 5 I think | 02:21 |
| fax | they are in different sections | 02:21 |
| devdude | which is done by what fax just said | 02:21 |
| thedude42 | KnifeySpooney, it means the number of arguments | 02:21 |
| canthus13 | devdude: If only man were so simple. | 02:21 |
| devdude | heheh :) | 02:21 |
| fax | e.g. there is printf command as well as printf function | 02:21 |
| dermot | i have the smae problem pjustice13 | 02:21 |
| fax | so you have to use man 3 printf to read the one about the function | 02:21 |
| KnifeySpooney | thedude42: number of arguments? | 02:22 |
| fax | it's just a way to categorize | 02:22 |
| pjustice13 | dermot, what have you tried | 02:22 |
| fax | I think man man will tell you about his | 02:22 |
| NineTeen67Comet | Hi all, does any of you know where I can get some fixes for the Cairo-dock/Intel video issues? (Or just the #room for Cairo?) | 02:22 |
| devdude | lol | 02:22 |
| nibbler | KnifeySpooney: its not page 5, its section 5. | 02:22 |
| pjustice13 | Ubuntu is not recognizing my wireless card. Can someone help please? | 02:22 |
| Madcamper | oh ok so i already have the linux-headers installed it says | 02:22 |
| canthus13 | fax: Only it makes very little sense except to the hippies who wrote it. | 02:22 |
| KnifeySpooney | Oh | 02:22 |
| devdude | pjustice13: first I'd do an update | 02:22 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42: but both backup the file dont they? If I lose the primary, all my info will still be verbatim stored on the backup, wont it? | 02:22 |
| KnifeySpooney | nibbler: Ok, thanks | 02:22 |
| devdude | pjustice13: just to get the latest | 02:22 |
| thedude42 | KnifeySpooney, sorry, i was thinking about something else | 02:22 |
| devdude | assuming you have lan internet? | 02:22 |
| dermot | i have not tried much i am new to ubinbtu | 02:22 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, no, rsync does some trickery with hard linking to the original file disk blocks | 02:23 |
| KnifeySpooney | ah. Just had to make sure there was a difference between soemthing like fstab(4) and fstab(5). Thanks | 02:23 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, I've already updated. Are you talking about a specific update? | 02:23 |
| devdude | pjustice13: nope, just to get the latest.. now what I'd try is go to hardware drivers | 02:23 |
| devdude | I think its preferences->hardware drivers | 02:23 |
| devdude | might be administration, I forgot | 02:23 |
| pjustice13 | Dermot, so am I | 02:23 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42: Oh holy crap. So if I lose the primary, nothing on the backup drive will work.. | 02:24 |
| devdude | I'm using linux mint right now, the GUI is odd | 02:24 |
| mgv2 | im getting error message 409: while trying to register jabber with pidgin - what is that?. | 02:24 |
| pjustice13 | Ok what am I looking for in the hardware drivers? | 02:24 |
| devdude | GSF1200S: if I understand how it works right, htat sounds correct | 02:24 |
| kevin0091 | i promiced never to buy another ATI card again, but I was just given 2 cards (an hd2600 and a x1600xt) by a friend. Which one will give better performance in ubuntu? | 02:24 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, that is my understanding, but with incrimentals the same thing applies but in a different way | 02:24 |
| devdude | pjustice13: it should say your card.. but um | 02:24 |
| dermot | I can get my usb modem to work with ubuntu no problem its just that i need to use windows to activate it first. | 02:24 |
| devdude | pjustice13: I haven't had many driver issues actually..ever. | 02:24 |
| kevin0091 | i think either of them will smoke the geforce 6200 that is currently in this machine | 02:25 |
| GSF1200S | so whats my best option to have a hard backup on my backup drive? | 02:25 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, ok let me look | 02:25 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, in incrimentals, you need the originals as a reference, unless you have them 100% backed up elsewhere | 02:25 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42: oh ok, makes sense | 02:25 |
| dermot | is there a way to tell ubuntu to detect my usb modem the way windows does | 02:25 |
| thedude42 | dermot, that's kind of a loaded question.... | 02:26 |
| devdude | so nobody knows naything about cryptsetup? | 02:26 |
| devdude | ugh | 02:26 |
| Fabrizio | is xubuntu way faster than ubuntu? | 02:26 |
| devdude | there's a lot of info, but not enough | 02:26 |
| Madcamper | -l | 02:26 |
| thedude42 | devdude, what's your question? | 02:26 |
| Madcamper | is that an L? | 02:26 |
| devdude | Fabrizio: by definition, I think gnome uses the least CPU and memory | 02:26 |
| Madcamper | oh nvm | 02:26 |
| Madcamper | im retarded | 02:26 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, I have an alternate atheros madwifi driver and it is activated | 02:27 |
| devdude | pjustice13: its defective on my ver of ubuntu, after I de-activated it, it wa fine again | 02:27 |
| Fabrizio | devdude: ok, thingsget bogged down on my 400mgz with ubuntu, what would work better? | 02:27 |
| thedude42 | devdude, i'm somewhat familiar with cryptsetup, i'm using it on a couple of systems | 02:27 |
| dermot | Ubuntu wont detect my usb modem unless i use the modem on windows first is there any way to tell ubuntu the detect the modem without useing windows | 02:27 |
| devdude | Fabrizio: gnome is the least footprint | 02:27 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, ok I'll try that, did you have to do a restart for it to start working | 02:27 |
| devdude | Fabrizio: I read a comparison | 02:27 |
| Fabrizio | devdude: ok good at least i know i have the fastest lightest one...but runs real slow sometimes | 02:28 |
| thedude42 | dermot, if i understand the issue you're talking about, there's a windows application you need to run in order to get your modem working, correct? | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: Is Xubuntu/XFCE way faster than Ubuntu/Gnome? Probably not, but it is recommended for older hardware | 02:28 |
| devdude | thedude42: I have it setup right now to ask for the pw for / on bootup before the login screen, and /home is taken from my user's login password. (using PAM, crypttab, and a whole lot of other stuff I don't recall).. I want to switch it so after / is mounted, it can automount /home from some keyfile on / | 02:28 |
| dermot | actually just sitting at the login for a few secs will useally do the trick | 02:29 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: why is that | 02:29 |
| devdude | thedude42: or.. use the same pw on both volumes.. and not bother me | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: ,because it uses less resources | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: make sure you got SWAP if you don't have much RAM | 02:29 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, do you have to do a restart before it will work? | 02:29 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: git 768ram | 02:29 |
| devdude | Fabrizio: sorry, I'm wrong then.. my memory failed me :P | 02:29 |
| devdude | pjustice13: yes. | 02:29 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, ok thanks! | 02:30 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: what runs best fofr 400mgz and 768ram | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: I guess about 1GB or 1.5GB SWAP then, if you did guided install it probably set one up for you that is about that size | 02:30 |
| dermot | i dont need to use the internet with windows for it to work i just need to run windows with the card plugged in | 02:30 |
| thedude42 | devdude, you did the /home with the thing where it asks 'do you want to encrypt your home directory?' on install? | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: loads out there, Fluxbox, ICEvm etc etc | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | lxde | 02:31 |
| sebsebseb | and so on | 02:31 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: so i should try a smaller one then | 02:31 |
| devdude | thedude42: I did not use the alternate install disk, I'm running linux mint and I can show you the link to the guide I used.. but basicly, I used cryptsetup, and setup some stuff using PAM, crypttab, and one other file I don't recall | 02:31 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: puppylinux? | 02:31 |
| devdude | mint is 9.04 with a start menu, but that's it | 02:31 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: Find out if you have SWAP and tell me how big it is, and yes you could try other distros such as puppylinux or damn small linux if you really want to | 02:31 |
| dermot | i assume all i need to do is to tell ubuntu to look for new hardware and use it for my verizon card to work i just dont know how to do it. | 02:31 |
| bigdavejoker | I need some pointers troubleshooting a up & down network connection It randomly drops and will not come back until I shut the interface down and back up or refesh the IP | 02:31 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: not wireless right? | 02:32 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: want speed on old hardware no idea about swap and not at home now | 02:32 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: oh | 02:32 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: ok | 02:32 |
| thedude42 | devdude, you should be able to add a new key to your /home cryptvol the same way you add a key to your / cryptvol | 02:32 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: if its part of ubuntu 904 then i got it | 02:32 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: How old is the computer? | 02:32 |
| bigdavejoker | devdude it is a wireless connection I do not get an indication of lost wireless signal when it happens I just can't browse or chat | 02:32 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: 1998 | 02:32 |
| Wally | Does this URL crash your Ubuntu from firefox (I am running version 9.0.4 and I have to power off to recover)? http://web.canon.jp/imaging/eosd/samples/eos7d/downloads/005.jpg | 02:32 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: ok I suggest trying Xubuntu and I suppouse Lubuntu, and also the other two distros that were just mentioned | 02:33 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: that is a common problem with wireless, regardless of operating system.. it could be as dumb as someone walked by the wireless router, or by your computer which screwed up the signal | 02:33 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: so your 1st try is xubuntu | 02:33 |
| bigdavejoker | devdude even thought I'm not getting a lost signal indication? | 02:33 |
| devdude | yep | 02:34 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: If you have the correct distro, Linux breaths a lot of life into old hardware. | 02:34 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: now i can switch to that right in terminal cammand right | 02:34 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: XFCE is a graphical user interface | 02:34 |
| dermot | Ubuntu will not detect my verizon card unless i run windows with the card plugged in first. Can any one tell me how to get the card to work without using windows | 02:34 |
| bigdavejoker | devdue hmmm okay well thats better than no answer at all but I am only like 10 feet from the router Maybe I'll run some cat5 and see if the problem ever occurs then | 02:34 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: so when i go home i can switch in terminal command right? | 02:34 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: a simple solution is use wifi closer to the router at hand.. or perhaps you could get an external wireless card with dramatically better range (I suggest the Alfa 500mW, the G not the N version) | 02:34 |
| Pilif12p | Hi, whats the apt-get for MySQL ? | 02:34 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: Gnome, KDE, XFCE, and what not, can all be installed in the same Ubuntu install, and then you switch to another session using the log in screen, and pick which one you want to run, when it's installed | 02:35 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: its really a general wireless issue that nobody can do anything about | 02:35 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: besides say.. move the router higher up | 02:35 |
| devdude | sometimes does solve the issue | 02:35 |
| thedude42 | dermot, google 'verizon usb modem linux' | 02:35 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: so that means it can be done from terminal command right? | 02:35 |
| bigdavejoker | It' sitting on top of a desk now less than 10 feet from me | 02:35 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: same room? | 02:35 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: You can install XFCE using the terminal yes sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 02:35 |
| dermot | i tried and cant find anything helpful | 02:35 |
| dermot | i will try again | 02:35 |
| bigdavejoker | devdue yes same room | 02:35 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: did you try power cycling the router.. or maybe a firmware update? | 02:36 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42, devdude: Well, I just killed X logged in as root, unmounted the primary drive completely, and all data was still accessible on the backup drive | 02:36 |
| joebodo | bigdavejoker do you have the connection set to "auto" | 02:36 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb:is that as effective as a clean install of xubuntu? | 02:36 |
| thedude42 | dermot, top return: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=634706 | 02:36 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: could solve the issue | 02:36 |
| devdude | but its a completely different issue if you say you are in the same room | 02:36 |
| pjustice13 | Hello, I am unbale to log into my wireless because ubuntu keeps replacing the password with random numbers and letters | 02:36 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, that is because you had aq full copy on the backup drive | 02:36 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: well not exactly, but Ubuntu is your base, the kernel, and all that, and then you do a desktop envrionment such as Gnome or KDE or windows manager such as XFCE or LXDE on top of that | 02:37 |
| vivid | anyone getting blank tty screens under karmic? | 02:37 |
| === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log | ||
| devdude | pjustice13: preferences -> mouse, touchpad, enable mouse clicks with touchpad (this usually solves the problem, IF that is what it is) | 02:37 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, you misunderstood.... rsync's 'snapshots' rely on the original copy, and if those disk bloks from the original copy are gone, so are the 'snapshots' | 02:37 |
| Madcamper | devdude: what was that build-essential command you told me? | 02:37 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: hmmm "not exactly he says"? i have both discs should i clean wipe or do the sudo thing...need speed | 02:37 |
| devdude | Madcamper: apt-get build-essential | 02:37 |
| devdude | ? | 02:38 |
| devdude | well sudo apt-get | 02:38 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42: right. Is there any issue with that? All im trying to do is have a total backup.. | 02:38 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, ok I'll try that | 02:38 |
| Madcamper | no, to install the driver | 02:38 |
| Madcamper | without x | 02:38 |
| sebsebseb | vivid: #ubuntu+1 for Karmic | 02:38 |
| devdude | blah.run --no-x-check | 02:38 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, your original rsync is the 'total backup' | 02:38 |
| Madcamper | ok | 02:38 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: Does your current install work resonably? | 02:38 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: I'ts Ubuntu/Gnome yes? | 02:38 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: yes usually | 02:38 |
| Madcamper | brb | 02:38 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42, ahhh, ok. I wasnt aware thats what you were talking about. So using a full backup, I shouldnt have any issues | 02:38 |

| bigdavejoker | devdude sorry dropped connection trying to check for auto | 02:39 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, yeah sorry... when you started talking about incrimental vs rsync, I was thinking you meant somehting like dirvish vs veritas | 02:39 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb:the more i update it the slower it gets | 02:39 |
| devdude | thedude42: my issue isn't changing the key, that's easy.. but how do I make it automount with the key? | 02:39 |
| devdude | I don't remember exactly how | 02:39 |
| bigdavejoker | devdue is there a good command line option to check for wireless signal when things stop working since I'm not getting an indication of dropped signal? | 02:39 |
| joebodo | stewart over which sea ? | 02:39 |
| stewart | lol. ANY sea! | 02:39 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb" was faster with 8.04 then did 400 update then 9.04, now seems slow | 02:39 |
| devdude | bigdavejoker: reboot the router | 02:39 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: ok run the command for installing xubuntu and give it a try, by selecting it from the log in screen, if you want to clean install Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu soon, then it may as well be 9.10 with default Ext4 by default, not for Ext3 upgrades. That's released on October 29th, with fast boot up, shut down, and disk checking after 23 or so boots. | 02:39 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42, nah its my bad.. i got confused. I asked some questions in another channel and some dude kept telling me rsync was not good enough and that I needed to look into incremental backups | 02:40 |
| thedude42 | devdude, when you set up root, you know how you had to update the ramfs stuff to include the lvm2 and cryptsetup stuff? | 02:40 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, that didn't work, the wireless still won't log on to my network | 02:40 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: so imay as well wait for the ubuntu upgrade then | 02:40 |
| devdude | pjustice13: no no I just meant so it doesn't add random characters.. | 02:40 |
| stewart | joebodo any good tips or pointers? | 02:41 |
| devdude | pjustice13: like you want to put in your password but it adds stuff you didn't type right | 02:41 |
| === Live_GAMER is now known as Live_Android | ||
| GSF1200S | thedude42, hence why I came here and was asking. It didnt make sense to me since I thought I was making a full backup | 02:41 |
| mgv2 | when i move my mouse over the right click menu of the desktop in hebrew system the paste option blinks fastly | 02:41 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: Yep in my opinion it makes a lot of sense for many people to do a clean install when 9.10 comes out, because of the default Ext4. | 02:41 |
| thedude42 | GSF1200S, i mean, rsync is as good as copying the files from one place to another..... not sure to what he was referring with regard to 'good enough' | 02:41 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb: isaw that my ubuntu insatll put itself in mt ext3...now you mention ext4? | 02:41 |
| Madcamper | devdude: i did NVIDIA-Linux-x86blahversion.pkg1.run --no-x-check but it said command not found? | 02:42 |
| pjustice13 | devdude, no I put in the correct password and it won't log on, so I checked to make sure I typed the password correctly and it showed up as random numbers and letters | 02:42 |
| devdude | thedude42: vagueely.. going to look up the same guide maybe it'll lead to the same info | 02:42 |
| Pilif12p | Help please? | 02:42 |
| joebodo | stewart sorry not really - i usually just get jobs from word of mouth ... | 02:42 |
| thedude42 | Madcamper, try ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86blahversion.pkg1.run --no-x-check | 02:42 |
| Fabrizio | sebsebseb:is ext4 a better home for it (mine is in ext3) | 02:42 |
| Madcamper | kk | 02:42 |
| teknozwizard | The primary Freenode rooms are on this server, right? | 02:42 |
| GSF1200S | thedude42, yeah man, thats what ran through my head, and I got all confused thinking I was missing something. He got pissed and told me he didnt have time to teach me linux basics. Wtf? So I thought Id ask... | 02:42 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: Yep Ext4 is quite a lot better, and will replace Ext3 as the default starting with 9.10. There is a Ext3 to Ext4 conversion, but it probably won't exactly be good enough, and so for full support clean installs. | 02:42 |
| Madcamper | brb again | 02:42 |
| stewart | ah. new to industry at the moment. not enough contacts, but i'm working on it! | 02:42 |

| thedude42 | now someone tell me how to make nagiosgrapher from the ubuntu repositories work with nagios3 from the ubuntu repositories | 02:44 |
| sebsebseb | Fabrizio: either you do a clean install when it's time, and it puts everything into an Ext4 / or when your installing you can for example set up a seperate /home as well, which is rather useful, if you ever have a reason to re install Ubuntu again, or you want to try out other distros | 02:44 |
| sebsebseb | !home | Fabrizio | 02:44 |
| ubottu | Fabrizio: 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 | 02:44 |

| a_ | thanx again joe | 03:28 |
| Dr_Masters | * Deconfiguring network interfaces... Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0. | 03:28 |
| Dr_Masters | [ OK ] | 03:28 |
| joebodo | Regressless you can add the mount to your /etc/fstab instead | 03:29 |
| MenZa | RegressLess: You'll have to disable that in gconf-editor | 03:29 |
| vecto__ | is there anything saying "fail"? | 03:29 |
| Dr_Masters | Istarnes, that did not work, might you have another idea? | 03:30 |
| RegressLess | joebodo: yeah, couldn't get that to work so I tried an easy way | 03:30 |
| lstarnes | Dr_Masters: it should work | 03:30 |
| pjustice13 | live_android, do you know of any solutions | 03:30 |
| jimmy_82 | nope nothing. it just hangs. | 03:30 |
| joebodo | !fstab | 03:30 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 03:30 |
| Live_Android | try https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/internet/C/troubleshooting-wireless.html | 03:30 |
| bastidrazor | RegressLess: mount it to some place other than /media ..or do like MenZa said and disable show_volume in gconf-editor | 03:30 |
| lstarnes | Dr_Masters: the other way is to shut down each interface individually with sudo ifconfig interface-name down | 03:30 |
| jimmy_82 | happened after a forced shutdown. was asked to ran fsck on bootup, did that restarted then it just hangs | 03:30 |
| vecto__ | jimmy_82: maybe you shot a sector on your hdd | 03:31 |
| shane2peru | !who jimmy_82 | 03:31 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about who jimmy_82 | 03:31 |

| RegressLess | MenZa: as long as I can still find them under Places, I'm good | 03:34 |
| MenZa | RegressLess: Oh, you'll be able to. | 03:34 |

| shane2peru | speculater: what Ubuntu did you install? | 03:35 |
| RegressLess | Is there a way to make window borders easier to grab? They're so tiny that I struggle to get a hold on them to resize windows. | 03:36 |
| shane2peru | speculater: can you post your sound card here, perhaps someone may know more about that card. | 03:37 |
| joebodo | regressless you can use a different window border (in appearances) | 03:37 |
| shane2peru | speculater: also, I have had luck removing pulse audio, because it didn't work well for me, on my intel box | 03:37 |
| Live_Android | speculater, if it's a laptop it might be better to just post the model # | 03:37 |
| cloud125p | can't figure out how to reboot my mini, so that i can reset my password because i forgot it | 03:38 |
| RegressLess | joebodo: I guess I'll just deal with it--I really like this theme. | 03:39 |
| joebodo | cloud125p have you tried " sudo passwd <username>" | 03:39 |

| joebodo | Ubuntuuser7 if it's a shell script, you add "sleep 180" or however many of secs you want | 04:09 |
| prince_jammys | nic1: look in the forums for your error message. I've seen posts about it. | 04:09 |
| shane2peru | wizzo50: with linux you really don't want to download programs from web sites and install them, use Synaptic for future reference | 04:10 |
| prince_jammys | nic1: look for "your session lasted less than 10 seconds" or whatever it says. You'll get hits both from the forums and from google. | 04:10 |
| ntsasng | if i reinstall, what happen about hdd? | 04:10 |

| joebodo | ntsasng if you reinstall, you can set your home partition to what it was originally and select not to format it | 04:12 |

| Lucifaneous | I was wondieriong if netbeans works well with ubuntu if not what to get | 04:14 |
| shane2peru | ntsasng: if you want to get rid of a file you have to purge it and then reinstall it, purging gets rid of conf files if I understand that correctly. | 04:14 |
| Sirisian | is there something like netcat that will listen for multiple connections like a socket server and print out the information from each of the connections? | 04:15 |

| Lucifaneous | ok.. thanks | 04:17 |
| Lucifaneous | bye bye | 04:17 |

| natewiebe13 | BullHorn0: usb startup disk? | 04:42 |
| hullo | gilch thank you | 04:42 |
| nickrud | ntsasng, you installed sun-java6-jre , and when you type java -version what do you see? | 04:43 |
| bazhang | Guest95954, install the package youtube-dl as I suggested a moment ago | 04:43 |
| joebodo | ntsasng you might want to use the sun java for eclipse | 04:43 |
| Pengyduckwin | kiran & Guest95954: I'm not sure if it's legal, but put "pwn" (without quotes) in front of the youtube url and it'll direct you to a URL download (I'm dead serious, it's not a joke) | 04:43 |
| gilch | hullo, let me know if you need any help | 04:43 |
| melow01 | After I get to 8.10... can I upgrade straight to 9.04? Or are there other increments in between? | 04:43 |
| choppyhorse | can I install ubuntu without having an install disk somehow? Like, mount from usb then format and install from there? | 04:43 |
| bazhang | melow01, its a straight shot from 8.10 to 9.04 | 04:43 |
| melow01 | cool, thanks | 04:43 |
| Pengyduckwin | kiran & Guest95954: as in http://www.pwnyoutube.com/... | 04:44 |
| hullo | choppyhorse: mount the drive then dd from root to the drive | 04:44 |
| natewiebe13 | melow01: you can also upgrade straight to 9.10 if you want (skipping 9.04) | 04:44 |
| nickrud | bazhang, I'm having a brain fart. Do you remember offhand what the command is to show held packages? | 04:44 |
| ntsasng | I'm using sun-java6-jdk | 04:44 |
| melow01 | is 9.10 an LTS? | 04:44 |
| bazhang | melow01, no its not | 04:44 |
| natewiebe13 | i think the next lts is 10.04 | 04:44 |
| ntsasng | joebodo: I'm using sun-java6-jdk | 04:44 |
| bazhang | nickrud, got me, best to ask jrib :) | 04:45 |
| melow01 | ok, I'm not quite advanced enough with terminal to stray from LTS | 04:45 |
| lolmac | bazhang: what's LTS? | 04:45 |
| Pengyduckwin | melow01: I think so | 04:45 |
| melow01 | Long Term Support (LTS) | 04:45 |
| Viking667 | Long Term Support | 04:45 |
| bazhang | lolmac, long term support | 04:45 |
| joebodo | !lts | 04:45 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be 10.04 | 04:45 |
| Viking667 | i.e. they'll keep it on stream for 5 years | 04:45 |
| SeaPhor | nickrud, ??? how??? i asked a specific question with my details provided, and gave full detail of what has happened before, .... my specific question has been blown off?? | 04:45 |
| nickrud | remembered, sudo aptitude search ~ahold | 04:45 |
| Viking667 | I had a minor issue trying to upgrade from a LTS. I worked it out, thankfully | 04:45 |
| melow01 | oh I thought 9.04 is LTS... my bad | 04:46 |
| melow01 | oh well, I'll just have to learn it anyway | 04:46 |
| melow01 | all good | 04:46 |
| nickrud | not blown off, probably misunderstood. Was my link useful? | 04:46 |

| digital_rouge | im trying to format my entire external hard drive however gparted wont load after fresh install | 04:47 |
| joebodo | natewiebe13 the only issues i have had with karmic are with the update manager | 04:47 |
| natewiebe13 | joebodo: fixed now as far as i know | 04:48 |

| joebodo | natewiebe13 oops - that was meant for everyone in general | 04:48 |
| Pengyduckwin | digital_rouge, Ubuntu doesn't come with gparted AFAIK | 04:48 |

| natewiebe13 | digital_rouge: isnt insatlled by default | 04:49 |
| natewiebe13 | *installed | 04:49 |
| hullo | gilch: yes | 04:49 |
| gilch | hullo, was it plugged in when you installed? | 04:49 |
| nickrud | ah, then the usual caveats when upgrading. Make sure that you are completely up to date, any 3d party repos are disabled, consider removing 3d party apps temporarily during the upgrade | 04:49 |
| Pengyduckwin | digital_rouge is it not running or not formatting? | 04:49 |
| digital_rouge | yes i downloaded it and it was working however i could make partitions but it would not let me format the entire drive even after dismount | 04:49 |
| hullo | gilch: no, but when i usually plug in a new drive on this ata-usb device my computer recognizes it and automounts it | 04:49 |

| Guest44526 | what do i do if i forgot my username and password | 05:27 |
| nalcomis | I haven't tried switching mirrors... I am curious why browsing is so slow though. It is almost unusable | 05:27 |
| joebodo | !offtopic | digitalkiwi | 05:27 |
| ubottu | digitalkiwi: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 05:27 |
| DigitalKiwi | joebodo: nou | 05:27 |
| bazhang | nalcomis, if you have tried other software mirrors, and it is still slow (ie regular browsing is fine, only a problem with mirrors) then I suspect it is to do with recent karmic updates taxing the mirrors | 05:27 |
| DigitalKiwi | !language | joebodo | 05:27 |
| ubottu | joebodo: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 05:27 |
| bazhang | DigitalKiwi, please desist | 05:28 |
| choreo | anyone knows katrina halili | 05:28 |
| DigitalKiwi | bazhang: never! | 05:28 |
| DigitalKiwi | jk | 05:28 |
| nalcomis | bazhang, understood. Thanks... I am still wondering about browsing. It is very strange... At first I thought it may have been a DNS resolution issue, but pings to FQDNs work fine | 05:28 |
| bazhang | choreo, is that related to ubuntu? | 05:28 |
| evanescent | are there any digital pens which don't require special paper or a tablet and are known to work well on ubuntu | 05:29 |
| joebodo | DigitalKiwi O.o | 05:29 |
| DigitalKiwi | joebodo: wut | 05:29 |
| nalcomis | I have two network cards on the machine. Using the first one caused Ubuntu to lock up. Once I stopped using that card and using the second, the machine doesn't lockup anymore, but browsing is still incredibly slow. It was slow with both cards btw... | 05:30 |
| bazhang | nalcomis, this is wireless then? which chipset | 05:31 |
| nalcomis | bazhang, nope...wired | 05:31 |
| choreo | helo pls help me, i add my acct on pidgin (yahoo) but it is still not working... it appers connecting until now for 20mins | 05:31 |
| Guest44526 | what do i do if i forgot my username and password | 05:32 |
| bazhang | choreo, which version of pidgin | 05:32 |
| joebodo | nalcomis have you narrowed it down to a ubuntu issue - | 05:32 |
| choreo | 2.4.1 <bazhang | 05:32 |
| bazhang | !password | Guest44526 | 05:32 |
| ubottu | Guest44526: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 05:32 |
| nalcomis | I do have a wireless card, but I am not using it. I wonder if it is an autonegotiation thing or something... I am going to try to physically set the speed/duplex and IP to see if that helps at all. Also, the network configuration tool hangs on me. I have a very fast machine btw... It isn't a "horsepower" thing... 8gb of memory (yes, I am running the 64bit version) | 05:33 |
| choreo | pigin 2.4.1 <bazhang> | 05:33 |
| bazhang | choreo, that is quite an older version, which version of ubuntu are you on | 05:34 |
| choreo | how can i know the version of my ubuntu... | 05:34 |
| joebodo | doesnt pidgin require constant updates to keep up with protocol changes ? | 05:35 |
| bazhang | lsb_release -a in terminal choreo | 05:36 |
| thedude42 | protocols don't change that often, but pidgen does get updated fairly regularly | 05:36 |
| desnix | i just got xchat-gnome installed, how do i see who is in the channel? | 05:36 |
| joebodo | IM protocols change pretty frequently in order to break 3rd party clients | 05:37 |
| Tommi | ah..use the other X-chat | 05:37 |
| Tommi | not xchat gnome | 05:37 |
| davesher | i want to connect sifyconnect on ubuntu 9.04 live usb on Acer Aspire 4736 | 05:37 |
| Tommi | i had the same issue... | 05:37 |
| Tommi | hehe | 05:37 |
| FloodBot1 | Tommi: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:37 |
| desnix | how do i uninstall this xchat? | 05:37 |
| Tommi | Your package manager at the top left menu | 05:37 |
| cfurlin | Anyone using the recent build of epiphany-webkit. Looking for feedback on it. | 05:38 |
| thedude42 | never attribute to meliciousness that which can be attributed to incompetance | 05:38 |
| davesher | anyone can help me in connecting sify on ubuntu 9.04 | 05:38 |
| joebodo | deliciousness or maliciousness ? | 05:38 |
| === No is now known as Guest72472 | ||
| Guest72472 | o.o | 05:39 |
| thedude42 | maliciousness... but my point is that breaking 3rd party clients are not a top priority for people writing chat software | 05:39 |
| joebodo | used to be in the past ... that may have changed though | 05:39 |
| desnix | ah | 05:40 |
| desnix | this ones alot better | 05:40 |
| ugliefrog | hello | 05:40 |
| adsrikanth | hi, could u pls tell me how to fix sound on ubuntu 9.0.4 | 05:40 |
| adsrikanth | i tried the forums but dint find a fix? | 05:40 |
| desnix | trying to learn how to use this, i dont feel like wasting $100 for another cdkey for windows xp | 05:40 |
| ugliefrog | someone give me a hello back so i can test this 9.10 beta | 05:40 |
| thedude42 | in the past MSN was accused of that... as it turns out they were just plugging the holes in their leaky ship because 3rd party clients were better and more feature filled than their cruddy client.... because they protocol leaked all kinds of information in a security-through-obscurity design | 05:40 |
| ugliefrog | plz | 05:41 |
| bazhang | ugliefrog, #ubuntu+1 for karmic | 05:41 |
| skreeves | Hi ugliefrog! | 05:41 |

| adsrikanth | hi, could u pls tell me how to fix sound on ubuntu 9.0.4 | 05:42 |
| joebodo | !sound | adsrikanth | 05:42 |
| ubottu | adsrikanth: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 05:42 |

| davesher | sorry guys | 05:44 |
| desnix | i just installed g++, how do i pull it up? im used to visual c++ 2008 | 05:44 |
| teknozwizard | nic1: Means you're not wirelessly connected or your wireless card isn't compatible. Are you wired in? | 05:44 |
| quellhorst | is there an app to monitor my system's temp? i have supermicro motherboard, case and xeon processors | 05:44 |

| joebodo | !sensors | 05:44 |
| ubottu | You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto | 05:44 |
| nic1 | no..i am on mobile connection..photon+ | 05:44 |
| thedude42 | desnix, g++ is a command line tool | 05:44 |
| joebodo | quellhorst lmsensors i believe | 05:44 |
| nickrud | nic1, if web browser works, go to system->admin->software sources and choose another mirror | 05:45 |
| nic1 | ok | 05:45 |
| desnix | i use it through terminal? | 05:45 |
| teknozwizard | nic1: Hrm. I had a similary problem, whats your distro ver? | 05:45 |

| nickrud | lsb_release -a | 05:45 |

| thedude42 | desnix, many ide's will use g++, gcc, javac, etc | 05:45 |
| nic1 | 9.04 is my machine | 05:46 |
| nic1 | teknozwizard, how did you sovle your problem? | 05:46 |
| choreo | >wazhang< Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS | 05:47 |
| evanescent | are there any digital pens which don't require special paper or a tablet and are known to work well on ubuntu | 05:47 |
| davesher | joebodo its not work sify has changed its dailer | 05:47 |
| thedude42 | desnix, yes, typically when doing development in linux the command line is used to build parjects, and more often than not make is used as a wrapper for tools like gcc and g++ | 05:47 |
| teknozwizard | nic1: I was running 8.04, and when I upgraded to 9.04, 9.04 automatically had the appropriate drivers to recognize my wireless. Like nickrud said, I chose a different mirror and then pulled the packages that way and it started working perfectly. | 05:47 |
| davesher | joebodo that dailer is no longer available | 05:47 |
| nic1 | different mirror meaning? | 05:48 |
| joebodo | davesher there's a bunch of links shown in google for this issue | 05:48 |
| nic1 | is there any command to install opera on ubuntu? | 05:48 |
| bazhang | nic1, look in software sources | 05:48 |
| davesher | i have tried so many but all in ruin | 05:48 |
| choreo | >bazhang< Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS | 05:48 |
| thedude42 | nic1, apt-get install opera | 05:48 |
| bazhang | !info opera | 05:49 |
| ubottu | Package opera does not exist in jaunty | 05:49 |
| bazhang | thedude42, thats not in the repos | 05:49 |
| Balsaq | sebsebseb: we were talking earlier had to go , now have a few more questions | 05:49 |
| nic1 | ya i think so opera is not in jauty9.04 | 05:49 |
| davesher | any ways thanks | 05:49 |
| bazhang | !opera | nic1 | 05:49 |
| ubottu | nic1: Opera is an advanced, fast and free (as in beer) web browser. It is packaged for easy installation into Ubuntu. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser | 05:49 |

| nic1 | hey waht apt-line do i need to give in third party in software souces? | 05:56 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, what are you trying to overcome? | 05:56 |
| pshr_ | i get a total path name like username@username-laptop:~/path/to/filenames/ | 05:57 |
| Rotund | Anyone here have Fluendo DVD player and try it on Karmic? | 05:57 |
| pshr_ | i dont want that path to directories thedude42 | 05:57 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, the fact that the path names are long, or that they wrap around your terminal rows? because that's simply the fact of having long path names | 05:57 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, tab complete allows you to type less.... | 05:58 |
| adsrikanth | ubottu: are !Players and !MP3 IRC channels? | 05:58 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:58 |
| evanescent | are there any digital pens which don't require special paper or a tablet and are known to work well on ubuntu | 05:58 |
| pshr_ | thedude42, there is definitely a way to overcome those ones and just obtain the final directory names you are in instead of the path right from the /home/username | 05:58 |
| ayman | k | 05:59 |
| Rotund | Fluendo DVD is crashing for me on startup | 05:59 |
| joebodo | evanescent you might want to post a question on the ubuntu forums for that question | 05:59 |

| ixian_ | adsrikanth, no they are commands for ubottu, type them in channel or msg the bot | 05:59 |

| thedude42 | pshr_, if you want to reference a file/directory you use absolute paths, starting at root ( / ) or you use relative, referencing from your current working directory | 05:59 |

| Doonz | Hey guys, I wrote my first successful script and have it set up with a cron job, now heres my question, I have the job set up to create a log. Is there a way to get it so when the job is ran it displays within a screen? Basically so when cron runs the job it would be like i ran it manually? | 06:00 |
| evanescent | thanks | 06:00 |
| davesher | help::::::: sifyconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory::::::::::::::: can any one tell me how to solve this | 06:00 |
| evanescent | digital pens aren't listed under input devices though | 06:00 |
| pshr_ | its not about referencing the directories, its just that it looks awkward when i need to navigate to deeper directories my terminals all filled up with the path | 06:00 |
| digital_rouge | can someone help i have a hard drive that is corrupt and wont partition please im me if ya have some tricks | 06:01 |
| eboyjr | How can I make Network Manager applet connect automatically without having me enter the password to unlock the default keyring? | 06:01 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, if you are using a common path prefix, like say /usr/local/someapp/somedir , you can simply create an environment variable that is that path and then reference the files as $variable/filesyouwant | 06:01 |
| Billiard | eboyjr: keyring settings? | 06:01 |
| joebodo | Doonz you could add this to your script: xterm -e tail -f <your log file> | 06:01 |
| joebodo | Doonz that would open a new xterm window with the contents of the log file | 06:02 |
| skreeves | pshr_, do you mean you don't want to see the long paths in your command line prompt? | 06:02 |
| davesher | help::::::: sifyconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory::::::::::::::: can any one tell me how to solve this | 06:02 |
| pshr_ | absolutely skreeves | 06:02 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, are you talking about your shell prompt? like, you don't want your current working directory in your shell prompt? | 06:02 |
| eboyjr | Billiard: Where is that? I looked and I didn't see anything in 'Encryption and Keyrings' under 'Preferences'. | 06:02 |
| pshr_ | there you go thedude42 that's what i was trying to convey.. my bad.. if i messed it up | 06:03 |
| stebalien | eboyjr: Check the 'Available to all users' box. This will store the key in a configuration file, not the keyring. | 06:03 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, you need to edit your .bashrc or .cshrc file | 06:03 |
| pshr_ | to ? | 06:03 |
| Doonz | joebodo: ok let me elaborate a lil more. On my server im currently logged into a screen session with 4 windows. is it possible to have it so when that cronjob is ran it creates a window # and displays whats going on | 06:03 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, you need to find the line that defines your prompt, and remove the part that puts your current working directory in it | 06:04 |
| Doonz | window # = window 5 | 06:04 |
| stebalien | eboyjr: you can also have the keyring unlocked when you login. (ubuntuforums.org will have instructions). | 06:04 |
| davesher | help::::::: sifyconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory::::::::::::::: can any one tell me how to solve this | 06:04 |

| eboyjr | stebalien: Thanks I checked the box under Connection Information, then selecting Edit and it was at the bottom. | 06:05 |
| Balsaq | !9.10 | 06:05 |
| skreeves | that will ellipsize the working path in your prompt | 06:05 |
| Balsaq | will 9.0 increase the footprint on my HD over 9.04? | 06:06 |
| pshr_ | skreeves, thedude42 .. i am lost | 06:06 |
| joebodo | Doonz it is possible to attach to a screen session - but i have not done that before - you could just leave a screen session up with a tail of that log in it | 06:06 |
| bazhang | Balsaq, #ubuntu+1 for karmic support | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | bazhang what is that | 06:06 |
| nomad111 | hey all, how do i reload a document in vi/vim | 06:07 |
| nomad111 | or less | 06:07 |
| bazhang | Balsaq, it is the channel for karmic (9.10) discussion and support | 06:07 |
| Balsaq | ok ty | 06:07 |
| nomad111 | i have a log file that i want to keep reloading without closing and reopening it all the time | 06:08 |
| Madcamper | is there a iso mounter program for linux out there? | 06:08 |
| Doonz | ok so if i create window 5, xterm -e tail -f <your log file> <-- i just type that into the window and it will show whats going on? | 06:08 |
| joebodo | nomad111 vi! | 06:08 |
| Doonz | joebodo: ok so if i create window 5, xterm -e tail -f <your log file> <-- i just type that into the window and it will show whats going on? | 06:08 |
| joebodo | nomad111 you might want to just run tail -f <filename> instead | 06:08 |
| skreeves | pshr_, "export PROMPT_DIRTRIM=3" will only show 3 levels deep of directories in your prompt | 06:08 |
| codyzapp | yall remember how to compile just "xchat" without the gnome-xchat? i blanked out | 06:08 |
| nomad111 | joebodo: i usually want to scroll up and down the log | 06:09 |
| nomad111 | tail -f just works by appending and showing the last N lines | 06:09 |
| pshr_ | should there be a $ ? | 06:09 |
| pshr_ | like $PROMPT_DIRTRIM | 06:09 |
| joebodo | Doonz if you already have a screen session, you just need the "tail -f filename" | 06:09 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, i beleive the environment variable that sets the prompt in the .bashrc file is $PROMPT_COMMAND | 06:10 |
| joebodo | nomad111 vi! will reload the current file | 06:10 |
| joebodo | nomad111 (in vi) | 06:10 |
| Doonz | kool thank you | 06:10 |

| nalcomis | I recently installed a fresh version of Ubuntu 9.0.4 on my machine. The box locks up randomly and I can't figure out why.. At first I thought it was a network driver issue, but it looks like that isn't the case. Anyone have any ideas? | 06:12 |
| Bluey | ayman system/administratin/user and groups | 06:12 |
| JohnLocke | ayman: which username and password? | 06:12 |
| ayman | host name | 06:12 |
| ayman | and login name | 06:12 |

| JohnLocke | sudo nano /etc/hosts | 06:12 |
| Doonz | ok stupid question im want to rename my windows in screen. when i look at the help file i found in google,... wth is this combination "C-a A" | 06:13 |
| ayman | ok sir | 06:13 |
| KnifeySpooney | What is the difference between rsync and cp? | 06:13 |
| Bluey | Doonz - no clue... | 06:13 |
| JohnLocke | ayman: to change your hostname you can do: $ sudo nano /etc/hosts | 06:13 |
| skreeves | Doonz, control-A then A | 06:14 |
| Bluey | knifey rsync does a backup of files, while cp just copies it | 06:14 |
| Bluey | i think I have an rsync script.... | 06:14 |
| ayman | and can me change may login name | 06:14 |
| Bluey | knifey -- http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=81 | 06:15 |
| Doonz | if i do control a a it just switchs to the last window | 06:15 |
| Doonz | i want to rename the window | 06:15 |
| Bluey | ayman system/admininstration/user and groups | 06:15 |
| JohnLocke | ayman: sorry, it's /etc/hostname, not /etc/hosts | 06:15 |
| ayman | ok thanks | 06:16 |
| skreeves | Doonz, control-a then capital A | 06:17 |
| nickrud | JohnLocke, need to change both. | 06:17 |
| Doonz | ahh | 06:17 |
| KnifeySpooney | Bluey: But what is the difference between backing up and copying? aren't those just synonyms? | 06:17 |
| tv7497 | kcsrnd: hello sir ! just woke up ! yeah i have installed samba ! now all i need to do is to take my crossover cable plug it in to lappy and ? | 06:17 |
| Bluey | knifey -- do a man rsync | 06:17 |
| Bluey | and read up on it's much more powerful then copy... | 06:17 |
| pshr_ | thedude42, skreeves the environment variables is PS1 | 06:18 |
| nickrud | cp can be used for backups, but rsync is designed from the ground up for it | 06:18 |
| pshr_ | and i need to change the 'w' to 'W' thats all | 06:18 |
| pshr_ | thanks any ways gues | 06:18 |
| pshr_ | guys :) | 06:18 |
| pshr_ | good day | 06:18 |
| FloodBot1 | pshr_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:18 |
| Bluey | knifey -- lots more options with rsync | 06:18 |
| Bluey | look at the script... | 06:18 |
| thedude42 | pshr_, i'm pretty sure that PS1 is not the thing that generates your current working directory | 06:19 |
| Madcamper | has anyone been able to get microsoft expression web installed on ubuntu? | 06:19 |

| imz76 | i am trying to install java from http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#selfextracting | 06:23 |
| imz76 | still not successful | 06:23 |
| joebodo | imz76 are you looking for a specific version of java ? | 06:24 |
| stebalien | imz76: why not 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre' | 06:24 |
| joebodo | imz76 or sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk | 06:25 |
| imz76 | so i have to look for sun-java6-jdk first | 06:26 |
| alienjeff | Can someone help me so I can dual boot Windows XP and Puppy Linux? | 06:26 |
| joebodo | !dualboot | 06:26 |

| === sgallinger is now known as killbot | ||
| alienjeff | But I don't want to dual boot Ubuntu and XP. I want to dual boot Puppy Linux and XP. | 06:26 |
| stebalien | imz76: jdk is for development. jre is for end users. | 06:26 |
| oldude67 | then you need to go to puppy linux help channel | 06:27 |
| joebodo | alienjeff odd you would pick the ubuntu forum for that question then | 06:27 |
| imz76 | i suppose jre, because i'm going to install omnet++ after that | 06:27 |
| bazhang | alienjeff, there is a puppy linux channel on freenode, that would be the appropriate place to ask for support | 06:27 |
| alienjeff | joebodo: Just curious how strick your on-topic policy was. | 06:27 |
| Dr_Willis | alienjeff: Very strict. :P | 06:28 |
| alienjeff | Dr_Willis: heh | 06:28 |
| chetnick | i am having problem viewing some .doc file for school (math) some caracters are displayed as ?. Can anyone tell me is there a posible way to view this in OpenOffice. Here is the file. http://rapidshare.com/files/291426237/M174_t2_sample.doc.html | 06:28 |
| alienjeff | Dr_Willis: ...not to mention ghey | 06:28 |
| Dr_Willis | When you get 1000+ people in a channel - you havve to keep it on topic. | 06:28 |
| Dr_Willis | There will be 3000+ here on release day i imagine. | 06:29 |
| alienjeff | Dr_Willis: Someone in #puppylinux was asking about you the other day ... forgot exactly who, but I told them you had passed away. | 06:29 |
| oldude67 | i will be here to watch all the panic..lmao | 06:29 |
| joebodo | chetnick you may want to install the ms fonts - you can install them using the ubuntu-restricted-extras | 06:29 |
| alienjeff | Dr_Willis: I hope that's alright. | 06:29 |
| Dr_Willis | alienjeff: guess they couldent they do a /whois dr_willis :) and see where i was at. | 06:29 |
| Dr_Willis | alienjeff: been in #ubuntu+1 mainly. | 06:30 |
| Brack10 | I borked a video card driver install and now I get 0 display when I boot. . How can I boot into text mode and repair the drivers? Ubuntu 9.04 GeForce GT6600 | 06:30 |
| MenZa | Dr_Willis: Careful with the offtopic there. | 06:30 |
| MenZa | ;) | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis | MenZa: its OT to mention OT. | 06:30 |
| alienjeff | MenZa: Are you in Mensa or just a wannabe? | 06:30 |
| MenZa | alienjeff: Neither. Also, -offtopic for your offtopic needs. | 06:30 |
| chetnick | joebodo: nope, already tried that. | 06:31 |
| joebodo | !offtopic | alienjeff | 06:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Brack10: how did you 'bork' it? | 06:31 |
| ubottu | alienjeff: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 06:31 |
| Brack10 | Dr_Willis: Lost power during install | 06:32 |
| Madcamper | tv7497, do i have to have a xp iso in order for it to emulate it? | 06:32 |
| Viking667 | well, THAT was easy enough.... just stuck the DVD in, added the media, and now I'm busy adding packages. Thank you.... | 06:33 |
| tv7497 | Madcamper: pardon me ! i didnt understand the previous post ! | 06:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Brack10: eww... That could be bad. You could try remove/reinstallin git via the command line. actually You may want do do a 'sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade' from the command line. It might see the breakage and fix things. | 06:33 |
| Brack10 | Dr_Willis: How can I boot in text mode? | 06:33 |
| alienjeff | Dr_Willis: Be well, man. | 06:33 |
| alienjeff | Hope that wasn't OT | 06:33 |
| Dr_Willis | alienjeff: have fun. :) | 06:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Brack10: you cant even get to 'rescue' mode from the grub prompts? | 06:33 |
| Dr_Willis | or recovery mode - or whatever they call it now. | 06:34 |
| Madcamper | um, like do i need a seperate file to have XP run in the vbox? | 06:34 |
| Brack10 | Dr_Willis: Right | 06:34 |
| Brack10 | no VESA display at all | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Brack10: what do you mean no vesa display? You cant even see the 'console' shell/login: ? | 06:34 |

| wavez | can someone tell me the name of the internet text browser? | 06:34 |
| MenZa | wavez: elinks is one. lynx is another. links is a third. | 06:35 |
| maco | wavez: the included one is w3m. there is also lynx and links2 | 06:35 |
| Brack10 | Dr_Willis: Right | 06:35 |
| Brack10 | Dr_Willis: just blank as soon as you get past grub | 06:35 |
| Brack10 | it's not like X won't start | 06:35 |
| stebalien | wavez: type 'www-browser in the terminal | 06:35 |
| Brack10 | it's just totally blank | 06:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Brack10: You may want to edit the grub boot lines and append 'nosplash' and 'nofb' to the end.. but its possible that somthing deeper is broken. | 06:36 |
| subone | Jordan_U: Yes I am using compiz | 06:36 |
| Brack10 | I don't think spash is an issue | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Brack10: you could boot a live cd, and fsck your filesystems, then chroot into the installed system. and try repairs from that chrooted shell. | 06:36 |
| Brack10 | what's nofb? | 06:36 |
| Brack10 | ok | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | fb = framebuffer.. Normally disabled..but its good to make sure its really disabled. | 06:36 |
| Madcamper | with vbox, how do i make it run XP? do i need an XP iso? | 06:37 |
| Brack10 | but I mean there has to be a way to boot in pure text mode | 06:37 |
| stebalien | Madcamper: or the cd. | 06:37 |
| Brack10 | since grub works | 06:37 |
| Madcamper | ok | 06:37 |
| Brack10 | ok I'll give it a try | 06:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Brack10: if the login 'program' or somthingbasic got trashed by th4e power outage.. well it cant run the proper commands to login. | 06:37 |
| joebodo | brack10 you can also try control-alt-F1 | 06:37 |
| wavez | MenZa: thanks. stabalien: I keep getting the options list. I'm looking for the run option :) | 06:37 |
| Dr_Willis | grub is on the MBR and a few files.. You can have grub 'work' wth no OS at all | 06:37 |
| Brack10 | joebodo: no opening a new virtual console doesn't work | 06:37 |
| subone | I have another question. When Watching a video through banshee media player my displays go into standby mode after a while. How can I stop this from happening when I'm watching a video? | 06:37 |
| Brack10 | like I said it's not a problem with X | 06:37 |

| joebodo | hi | mqueue | 06:43 |
| KnifeySpooney | Are there any folders to avoid if I wanted to copy my Ubuntu profile settings from one Ubuntu computer to the other? E.g., copy /home/jared/* to a new desktop? | 06:43 |
| Mqueue | is there a way to bind my PC to the domain name that i have ? it's asking for namesever information | 06:43 |
| Mqueue | <joebodo> hey bud | 06:43 |
| Dr_Willis | KnifeySpooney: thats the user settings. all in /home/username | 06:44 |
| Dr_Willis | KnifeySpooney: if you copy them toanother box. you might need to 'chown' them tobe owned by the proper users on that box. Since the 'uid' may be different | 06:44 |
| KnifeySpooney | Dr_Willis: Yes, that's why I would like to copy over my profile to the other computer. Is it ok to simply copy the whole folder and my settings will be set the same as they are on the first? | 06:44 |
| KnifeySpooney | Dr_Willis: Ok | 06:45 |
| d1g1t4l_nrg | hey all | 06:46 |

| d1g1t4l_nrg | can anyone assist with dvd's not playing in U 9.04 | 06:47 |
| KnifeySpooney | Dr_Willis: Yes, I love it. Makes things a lot easier when reinstalling Ubuntu (karmic left me unbootable) | 06:47 |

| Mqueue | can anyone help me with name server to point to my ubuntu | 06:50 |
| subone | Do you know how I can stop my screens going blank for a second when fullscreen video is playing and another window needs attention? | 06:51 |
| subone | Someone earlier suggested it may have something to do with compiz, i'm gonna test that theory now | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Mqueue: you mean the DNS server? normally your isp supplies those autmatcally. Or you could use the OPENDNS servers. | 06:52 |
| libtech | how can I configure multi-touch features of my touchpad, i mostly want to be able to navigate back and forward in firefox using multi-touch | 06:52 |
| subone | yeah looks like something about compiz is the culprit there | 06:52 |
| subone | Is there anyway i can run emerald without compiz? | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Mqueue: nameserver 208.67.222.222 and nameserver 208.67.222.222 for OpenDNS | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | subone: Not that ive ever seen. | 06:53 |
| Mqueue | so i put these ip's on opensrs where my domain is parked | 06:53 |
| Mqueue | Dr Willis>> so i put these ip's on opensrs where my domain is parked | 06:53 |
| joebodo | subone perhaps you could disable whatever module in compiz that is causing the issue | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Mqueue: no idea what you are doing.. never heard of OpenSRS | 06:53 |
| subone | darn, maybe i can disable some plugins in compiz to fix it | 06:54 |
| subone | joebodo: yeah what you said | 06:54 |
| joebodo | subone :) | 06:54 |
| joebodo | subone good luck in ccsm - well see you back in 3 days or so | 06:54 |
| Mqueue | Dr Willis>> I'm just trying to point my www.whatever.com website to point to my local PC | 06:54 |

| Mqueue | Dr Willis>> is that possible ? | 06:55 |
| FLAC | Mqueue, afraid.org | 06:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Mqueue: no idea on that. Never done that befor. THe various DynamicDNS/IP sites can do that. but thats all i know on the topic | 06:55 |

| joebodo | mqueue you need to update your dns provider with your ip address | 06:55 |
| nickrud | !clone | KnifeySpooney | 06:55 |
| ubottu | KnifeySpooney: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 06:55 |

| amirman | maco: i don't think that's what it read. it may be though | 06:56 |
| maco | run "sudo apt-get update" and see if thats what it says | 06:56 |
| amirman | maco: i'll have to let this update finish and try to update again to say for sure | 06:56 |
| maco | amirman: ok | 06:57 |
| joebodo | mqueue it's pretty provider specific how to update the IP/DNS combination | 06:57 |
| Bookman | Maybe not possible? | 06:57 |
| Mqueue | joebodo>> yea on the left it says name server on the right it says ip but IP section is not available to be typed into | 06:58 |
| joebodo | mqueue if you have a dynamic IP address (provided by your ISP), you might want to look at a service like dyndns.org | 06:58 |

| Dr_Masters | okay | 07:05 |
| Dr_Masters | if I log out, thanks, it worked | 07:05 |

| mewshi | hi, could I get a little help with GRUB please? | 07:07 |
| Dr_Masters | what do you need mewshi? | 07:07 |
| Polk330 | What is the reccomended program to use with an ipod? | 07:07 |
| Polk330 | on ubuntu | 07:07 |
| Dr_Masters | gtkpod! | 07:07 |
| soreau | subone: It's more likely your graphics drivers are at fault, a bug that compiz may be exposing. Do you use proprietary drivers? | 07:08 |
| amirman | is it possible to update 9.04 to the 9.10 beta? | 07:08 |
| Jeruvy | Dr_Masters: does iwconfig show wlan0 as your correct interface? | 07:08 |
| mewshi | I messed up GRUB so I'm going to reinstall it | 07:08 |
| Polk330 | blah..gtkpod | 07:08 |
| joebodo | airmain update-manager -d | 07:08 |
| blue-pearl | mewshi: do u have dual boot & did u reinstall windows? | 07:09 |
| Dr_Masters | Jeruvy, it is the only one with anything listed besides "no wireless extensions" it looks good to me | 07:09 |
| Fezzler | You Tube video in Firefox is "jumpy" how do I fix? | 07:09 |
| mewshi | no | 07:09 |
| mewshi | I changed partitions | 07:10 |
| joebodo | !flash | 07:10 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 07:10 |
| mewshi | I just need to reinstall grub | 07:10 |
| mewshi | so that it's pointing to the proper partitions | 07:10 |
| Dr_Masters | mewshi, use your live cd | 07:10 |
| mewshi | That's what I'm doing. But I want to JUST install grub again and have it point to the proper partition | 07:10 |
| blue-pearl | mewshi: use live cd... | 07:10 |
| om26er | Fezzler: using netbook? | 07:11 |
| FLAC | Mqueue: This is the format http://paste2.org/p/462877. Put that in /etc/inadyn.conf. Just login to your account at afraid.org to find your hash | 07:11 |
| Jeruvy | Dr_Masters: can you not deselect it from the network connections icon in the panel? ie: uncheck it? | 07:11 |
| blue-pearl | mewshi; in terminal... type grub | 07:11 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> Nope. | 07:11 |
| amirman | mewshi: get super grub boot disc, it's got me out of many grub jams before | 07:11 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> PC. | 07:11 |
| blue-pearl | mewshi: sudo grub | 07:11 |
| om26er | Fezzler: graphics card? | 07:11 |
| om26er | Fezzler: intel | 07:11 |
| Mqueue | put "http://paste2.org/p/462877" exactly like this in the config file ? | 07:12 |
| blue-pearl | mewshi: find /boot/grub/stage1 | 07:12 |
| Dr_Masters | Jeruvy Yeah, I could, but I have to do it from the command line, don't ask why. I can always just kill the NetworkManager, but I would rather do it the "right" way | 07:12 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> PC. AMD. Graphics. nvidia | 07:12 |
| om26er | Fezzler: then there should be no problem i think | 07:12 |
| blue-pearl | mewshi: find /boot/grub/stage1 wil show u hdd and partition | 07:12 |
| om26er | Fezzler: can it be you network problem? | 07:12 |
| Jeruvy | Dr_Masters: I'm not disputing your desire, just trying to offer a method that wants to work ;) | 07:12 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> slightly jumpy - watchable - just not smooth as it had been | 07:12 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> No. network fine | 07:13 |
| om26er | Fezzler: try karmic beta | 07:13 |
| amirman | joebodo: thank you | 07:13 |
| quellhorst | how do you guys keep up with warranties for hardware? | 07:13 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> what is that? | 07:13 |
| om26er | Fezzler: latest upcoming ubuntu | 07:14 |
| Dr_Willis | quellhorst: Huh? | 07:14 |
| om26er | Fezzler: ubuntu9.10 | 07:14 |
| quellhorst | Dr_Willis: if you have racks full of equipment, how do you keep up with what is under warranty when it dies | 07:14 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> I'll wait. I'm not a beta person | 07:14 |
| Dr_Willis | quellhorst: i guess you keep a notefile/database if you have a lot of stuff. | 07:15 |
| om26er | Fezzler: ok.. how about you try to install google chrome and then see your video works fine | 07:15 |
| quellhorst | Dr_Willis: i dont need guesses | 07:15 |

| seight | how do i report a bug in 9.10 | 07:15 |
| Fezzler | om26er>> really? | 07:15 |
| Dr_Willis | quellhorst: time to hit google then i guess. | 07:15 |
| Evelina | joebodo: Yeah, but I know Conky is able to display HTML content, but did you really see it display working links to web sites? | 07:15 |
| quellhorst | yeah :( | 07:15 |
| * Dr_Willis does use a notebook. | 07:15 | |
| om26er | Fezzler: yes give it a try works better for me | 07:15 |
| Madcamper | with vbox, how would i mount a external drive within it? | 07:16 |
| * nickrud uses a filedrawer | 07:16 | |
| Madcamper | im running XP through it | 07:16 |
| joebodo | Evenlina not sure about links - i havent tried to do that | 07:16 |
| mewshi | can someone tell me what to do with /boot/grub/stage1? | 07:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Evelina: conky display html? ive never seen that.. never seen it display links either.. Might have to check out the conky pages again. | 07:16 |
| Jordan_U | mewshi: What are you trying to do? | 07:16 |
| nickrud | mewshi, you shouldn't be doing anything directly | 07:16 |
| mewshi | I'm trying to just reinstall GRUB | 07:17 |
| Jordan_U | !grub | mewshi | 07:17 |
| ubottu | mewshi: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 07:17 |
| Polk330 | Any one? What do you reccomend for a Music player/library? | 07:17 |
| mewshi | I just have one quick question, then | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Polk330: theres a dozen to choose from. I tend touse audacious | 07:17 |
| Jordan_U | !poll | Polk330 | 07:17 |
| ubottu | Polk330: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 07:17 |
| joebodo | polk330 i like songbird - but some people find it too heavy | 07:17 |
| amirman | Polk330: banshee is really nice, songbird is also really awesome | 07:17 |
| seight | how do i report a bug in 9.10 | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | I cant get songbird to work on ubuntu most of the time... had issues with it lately | 07:17 |
| Polk330 | Jordan_U, im not Polling. | 07:18 |
| mewshi | I have unallocated space that I'm going to expand the NTFS partition into. Will this affect where grub boots from? | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | !bug | 07:18 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » If that fails, you can report bugs manually at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | mewshi: it shouldent.. unless you add/remove partitions. | 07:18 |
| quellhorst | is there a raid utility for lsi logic cards? | 07:18 |
| Evelina | Dr_Willis: I don't know. I want to have a Feed reader set up using Conky, but then I need links that really works, not just a line of text from a feed. | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Evelina: ive never seen links in conky. not sure if thatss ever going tobe a feature | 07:19 |
| joebodo | evelina perhaps you could try the different gadgets | 07:19 |
| Madcamper | with vbox, how would i mount a external drive within it? I'm running xp through it | 07:20 |
| joebodo | evelina gdesklets, screenlets, or the google gadgets | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. i wonder if theres an RSS screen saver. | 07:20 |
| Jordan_U | Madcamper: Do you want the guest to controll the external device or do you want to mount the drive in the host and share it to the guest? | 07:21 |
| linuxguy2009 | Hello I was wondering if I want to turn my netbook on its side when reading books, is there a way to flip trackpad axis when rotating the screen? | 07:21 |
| Dr_Willis | linuxguy2009: been reading comic books? :) | 07:21 |
| Madcamper | anyone? | 07:21 |
| Dr_Willis | linuxguy2009: ive not seen a way to do that.. (yet) but the wife took my netbook soi havent checked into it in the last month. | 07:22 |
| m0r0n | Where are the programs installed into, ie for windows it's Program Files | 07:22 |
| assoly | linuxguy2009: шфь штекуыеув шт ершы йгуыешщт ещщ | 07:22 |
| linuxguy2009 | Dr_Willis: haha no comic books | 07:22 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: depends on the program there is no one single DUmping place. | 07:22 |
| assoly | linuxguy2009: i am intrested in this question too | 07:22 |
| m0r0n | Dr_Willis: Nexuiz, a game | 07:22 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: windows has a bad habbit of not just using ProgramFiles also. :) | 07:22 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: check the package manager. it can show you exactly what files it installed where. | 07:23 |
| Jordan_U | m0r0n: You can see where the files are with "dpkg -L <package name>" | 07:23 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: why do you even need to know where? | 07:23 |
| Evelina | joebodo: Yeah, I don't like the gdesklets or screenlets, but maybe Google Gadgets. | 07:23 |
| m0r0n | Dr_Willis: It gives you the files, and I don't want to leave them on my desktop so I'd like to move it to an appropriate location | 07:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Evelina: Opera also has gadgets | 07:23 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: 'on my dektop' ? you mean icons on your desktop or what exactly? | 07:24 |
| joebodo | Evelina yes - i dont like the 2 either | 07:24 |
| Jordan_U | m0r0n: Did you install nexius with the package manager? | 07:24 |
| m0r0n | Dr_Willis: When you download Nexuiz, it gives you a ZIP of all the fiiles Jordan_U: No | 07:24 |
| Jordan_U | m0r0n: Why not? It's available | 07:25 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: then you shold either have it install to /opt/ OR keep it in the users home dir under /home/username/GAMES or someplace | 07:25 |
| m0r0n | Jordan_U: It's outdated I believe | 07:25 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: dont just grab the .zip and try to install it into system dirs.. keep it in /opt/ or the users own personal space. | 07:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Best = keep it in the users own home. | 07:26 |
| m0r0n | Dr_Willis: I' | 07:26 |
| m0r0n | Dr_Willis: I'd like the guest users to also access it though | 07:26 |
| Jordan_U | m0r0n: 2.5 is available at getdeb.net | 07:26 |
| Dr_Willis | m0r0n: then put it in /opt/ or some where apart from the system | 07:27 |
| Dr_Willis | I tend to use DJL to get 'unofficial/new' games http://en.djl-linux.org/ | 07:27 |
| Jordan_U | m0r0n: The .deb file from getdeb will install normally | 07:27 |
| Jordan_U | m0r0n: http://www.getdeb.net/app/Nexuiz | 07:29 |
| m0r0n | Jordan_U: Bah. Well I have it, whatever, thanks anyways. What other games are being used widley that's free and FPS | 07:29 |
| m0r0n | Dr_Willis: Thanks | 07:29 |

| Dr_Willis | hullo: i tend to use 'sudo fdisk -l' | 07:44 |
| Viking667 | hullo: hm. You could use lshw, and look down the list. That'll show you (in terminal mode) what there is. | 07:44 |

| toner | Hi, when I reboot my Ubuntu 8.04 box, the menu in grub is empty, none of the usual choices of kernel are there. I can't find anything about this on google. What should I do next? | 07:45 |
| Dr_Willis | toner: so the system dosent boot at all? | 07:46 |
| toner | Dr_Willis: it boots to the grub menu, which is empty | 07:46 |
| Dr_Willis | toner: I would guess the menu.lst is some how gotten trashed. Not sure how that could happen | 07:47 |
| OneH | can somebody help me plz? | 07:47 |
| jbuncher | !ask | OneH | 07:47 |
| Dr_Willis | toner: its not black with black text however? I saw that once... system booted if ya hit enter.. but just dident look that way | 07:47 |
| ubottu | OneH: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 07:47 |
| OneH | its not strictly related to ubuntu, but i think my dns server is down. i need the ip for an open dns server and also the ip address for the settings for a buffalo router | 07:47 |
| toner | Dr_Willis: no, i press enter and nothing happens. | 07:47 |
| Dr_Willis | OneH: nameserver 208.67.222.222 | 07:48 |
| Dr_Willis | nameserver 208.67.222.220 | 07:48 |
| Dr_Willis | OneH: those are for 'opendns' | 07:48 |
| toner | Dr_Willis: if menu.lst is trashed and I go to the grub command line to explicitly tell it where the kernel is, how do I work out what location for the kernel to specify? (Thanks for your help btw) | 07:48 |
| OneH | okay, cool. do you happen to have the ip for google or could you possible google the ip for a buffalo router? | 07:48 |
| skreeves | OneH: 192.168.11.1 for a Buffalo? | 07:50 |
| Segalp | Hello, anybody here speak Russian?) | 07:50 |
| OneH | i think thats it, ty | 07:50 |
| Dr_Willis | toner: thge grub command line has some sort of 'find , or locate command you can look for /boot/vmlinuz perhaps. | 07:51 |
| Dr_Willis | toner: the grub homepage has docs on the cli features and reinstalling grub. You might want to boot a live cd and se eif theres a menu.lst or if its totally empoty | 07:51 |
| OneH | hmm. thats weird. must not be the dns. for some reason i cant access anything on the web and yet i'm still on irc, but that isnt actually the problem cuz i cant even access 192.168.11.1 | 07:52 |
| starke | OneH, service iptables stop | 07:53 |
| toner | Dr_Willis: okay, i'll boot a live cd and explore the hard disk. | 07:53 |
| OneH | im on win7 | 07:53 |
| bening | 0neh > maybe your connection is getting slow, use the stronger modem | 07:54 |
| Dr_Willis | OneH: im not uer why but ive seen other cases where people can access IRC but not other web sites - not sureif the irc clients cache the IP of the irc servers or how ithappens | 07:54 |
| OneH | not sure either, but its quite annoying. im gonna try rebooting | 07:55 |

| silare | Hey, iceroot. Since you're so into enforcing the Ubuntu channel things, why not answer my question instead of just pulling rules at me? | 09:34 |
| iceroot | silare: there is no newer version of gegl? | 09:34 |
| CaDaVeRiA | hi...i have a problem with squid...why when i write "squid" in the shell it says something like..."You dont have squid installed plz...use apt-get install squid" but i downloaded the source from the page and i compiled it by myself :S | 09:34 |
| med\weed | silare: | 09:34 |
| med\weed | !rules | 09:34 |
| ubottu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 09:34 |

| silare | med\weed: Well, I figured if someone wants to pull crap moves on me, they should surely know something if they want to act that way. | 09:34 |
| iceroot | silare: why not asking a detailed question instead of "has anyone uses xy"? | 09:35 |
| med\weed | silare: they usually should | 09:35 |
| med\weed | whats your actual problem lets get er fixed up | 09:35 |
| med\weed | the channel deserves the extra dozen lines itl take between my asking you to ask | 09:35 |
| Flannel | silare: if it's a syntax error, that's a problem with the code | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | CaDaVeRiA: then its not in your default path. would be my guess | 09:35 |
| med\weed | and your actual asking | 09:35 |
| med\weed | ;) | 09:35 |

| bazhang | Liam2, which graphics card? is this jaunty? if so, is there something in hardware drivers for it | 10:48 |
| Liam2 | I have Radeon X1950 pro | 10:48 |
| Liam2 | Its Jaunty yes bazhang | 10:49 |
| spazzpp2 | anyone else has sound problems with karmic? | 10:49 |
| bazhang | Liam2, unless its a radeon hd card then the open source driver is the one you should use (ie not fglrx) | 10:50 |
| mintux | I need a software for my task manager .. not process of programs for my daily tasks .any suggestion ? | 10:50 |
| bazhang | spazzpp2, #ubuntu+1 for karmic | 10:50 |
| ortsvorsteher | !anyone | spazzpp2 | 10:50 |
| ubottu | spazzpp2: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:50 |
| jerknextdoor | mintux: todo.txt-cli | 10:50 |
| Liam2 | ok, I'll give it a try, thank you bazhang | 10:50 |
| mintux | jerknextdoor does it has GUI ? | 10:51 |
| karman | прива | 10:51 |
| balzac | hello | 10:51 |
| ortsvorsteher | !ru | karman | 10:51 |
| ubottu | karman: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 10:51 |
| bazhang | karman, #ubuntu-ru for Russian | 10:51 |
| jerknextdoor | mintux: nope. it's just a cli that keeps everything in a plain text file. very configurable. i have mine set up to play nice with all kinds of other programs. | 10:51 |
| balzac | I had a recent update to the Gnome Keyring which is causing me to be prompted for a password for my private key when I try to connect via ssh | 10:52 |
| mintux | ok | 10:52 |
| Bilge | Moonspeak scares me | 10:52 |
| spazzpp2 | I can't hear my alsa, also my workaround (basically restarting it) doesn't work anymore | 10:52 |
| bazhang | spazzpp2, the support channel for karmic is #ubuntu+1 | 10:52 |
| karman | 1 | 10:52 |
| spazzpp2 | bazhang: right, but I give it a try here, too | 10:53 |
| Liam2 | once I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 I want to update to kernel 2.6.31 is this recommended and will it cause any problems? | 10:53 |
| bazhang | spazzpp2, this is not the correct channel for it, please be patient there | 10:53 |
| bazhang | Liam2, which kernel is that | 10:53 |
| balzac | "An application wants to access the private key at user@domain but it is locked" | 10:54 |
| TorcpU | can anyone tell how could I make my USB portable memory stick one partition to be treated as CD? | 10:54 |
| TorcpU | tried gparted but can't seem to be able to do it | 10:54 |
| balzac | How do I use my private key now? | 10:54 |
| balzac | or how do I disengage the gnome keyring? | 10:54 |
| bazhang | TorcpU, you wish to make a bootable live usb stick? | 10:54 |
| TorcpU | naah just a cd | 10:54 |
| TorcpU | like I could put a video in it and watch in tv | 10:54 |
| TorcpU | or maybe an installation thing in the partition that automatically starts when attaching the memory stick | 10:55 |
| TorcpU | like cd | 10:55 |
| balzac | can I kill the gnome-keyring daemon without any problems ? | 10:55 |
| karman | Good-bye, went to teach English | 10:56 |
| balzac | or would I mess up my user session and have to reboot? | 10:56 |
| balzac | Enter passphrase for key '/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa': <--- how do I recover my passphrase? | 10:57 |
| jasonmchristos | Flannel: yeah im pretty sure it just uploaded the entire key to the keyserver take a look http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?search=jason+m.+christos&op=vindex | 10:57 |
| balzac | help meh | 10:57 |
| TorcpU | I mean like having ISO9660 filesystem on my memory stick | 10:58 |
| westmi | balzac: try google | 10:58 |
| TorcpU | emulating cd | 10:58 |
| Liam2 | support for Creative x-fi sound cards was added to 2.6.31, I would probably update the kernel on the 32-bit version of Jaunty to 2.6.31, I will use the prebuilt kernel available in ubuntu's repositories and am wondering if this will cause any problems | 10:58 |
| balzac | westmi: I am | 10:59 |
| balzac | thanks for that | 10:59 |
| bazhang | Liam2, karmic kernel? | 10:59 |
| balzac | google is an informative resource and I'm well familiar with it. | 10:59 |
| Liam2 | yes bazhang | 10:59 |
| grawity | TorcpU: You can create an ISO 9660 filesystem with mkisofs, but that won't make your pendrive a CD drive. It would require changes to the pendrive's firmware. | 10:59 |
| bazhang | Liam2, not the way to go; wait til the end of the month then upgrade to karmic | 10:59 |
| balzac | thanks again, westmi | 10:59 |
| TorcpU | ok thanks grawity | 11:00 |
| grawity | balzac: Open 'seahorse' and check if it still has any entries in the "Passwords" tab. | 11:00 |
| balzac | grawity: thanks | 11:00 |
| grawity | balzac: If it lists any locked keyrings, attempt to unlock them with your login password. | 11:00 |
| grawity | balzac: Then, look inside for the password of your SSH key. | 11:00 |
| jasonmchristos | grawity: im having seahorse problems can you help i dont understand why seahorse says the key is private and i did the upload key option im not sure if i accidentally published my private key | 11:01 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: Seahorse never uploads private keys. | 11:02 |
| Liam2 | ok thanks bazhang, I really just wnat my x-fi soundcard to work I wonder if once Ubuntu is installed if updating to alsa 1.0.21 will make the sound card work | 11:02 |
| jasonmchristos | grawity: well that is a relief it confuses me because there is only 1 key and seahorse says keytype:private | 11:02 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: It probably is saying you "have a private key" along with the public one. (It's a very rare occasion that a PGP private key is used without a public one.) | 11:02 |
| bazhang | Liam2, not sure, dont have that creative! card, but if karmic fixes it then surely worth the wait :) | 11:03 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: Another thing is that all keyservers would strip away the private key, anyway. | 11:03 |
| jasonmchristos | grawity: so now that it is uploaded how do i find the link to give people to use the pub key | 11:04 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: It would be better to just give the key ID. | 11:05 |
| balzac | grawity: I have seahorse open | 11:05 |
| balzac | I'm trying to reset the password. I've tried my account password and the root password, but they're not working | 11:05 |
| balzac | I do have a stored password | 11:05 |
| jasonmchristos | grawity: but how will they know which server to find it | 11:05 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: Ubuntu keyserver is part of the SKS Keyservers network - there are ~20 more, and they all have received your key in minutes. | 11:06 |
| asd | hi | 11:06 |
| === asd is now known as michele | ||
| CaDaVeRiA | sorry i have a question where i can configure my windows client to use the address of my proxy server ( squid Transparent) | 11:07 |
| seemawn | where is this package-database? | 11:07 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: There are only two well-known keyservers that are _not_ synced with the SKS network. | 11:07 |
| grawity | balzac: Would creating a new SSH key be an option? | 11:07 |
| Liam2 | bazhang, yeah ... I was wondering if I should wait I wanted to install linux this week since it's been a while since I've used it. Sabayon 5 comes with kernel 2.6.31 and the sound card works in their live cd, but I like to use more popular distros .... | 11:07 |
| Liam2 | tough decisions .... | 11:07 |
| jasonmchristos | grawity: on this page it appears that the last subkey is not signed any idea why? http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?search=jason+m.+christos&op=vindex | 11:07 |
| TorcpU | grawity: Do you have any idea how I should do the filesystem on my memory stick with mkisofs? Do I need unallocated 700mb space first and then some command? | 11:08 |
| balzac | grawity: nope. Not without admin contact for the server I'm trying to connect to. | 11:08 |
| Liam2 | bazhang, anyways thanks for all your help, bye | 11:08 |
| kaddi | hi, my thunderbird is no longer opening links in my emails when I click on them. Anyone know how to fix that? (I asked this in kubuntu first, but there is noone active over there) | 11:08 |
| balzac | I read I could disengage seahorse authentication from this | 11:08 |
| bazhang | Liam2, good luck | 11:08 |
| pradeep | any one knows how to setup a vpn | 11:08 |
| balzac | I updated the password for my gnome keyring | 11:08 |
| balzac | but that doesn't help me with the passphrase for the key I was using before the update | 11:09 |
| grawity | balzac: Your SSH key is encrypted, and the password was stored in your GNOME Keyring. | 11:09 |
| balzac | grawity: I have my user password and root password | 11:09 |
| grawity | balzac: The root password is irrelevant. | 11:09 |
| balzac | I can open up seahorse | 11:09 |
| balzac | it's the gnome keyring password? | 11:10 |
| kokoman | gays is any one can tell me what is the realmlist | 11:10 |
| grawity | balzac: Yes, Seahorse (well, its "Passwords" tab) is just a browser for Keyring. | 11:10 |
| grawity | balzac: Have you unlocked the "login" keyring in it? | 11:11 |
| kokoman | what is the realmlist pls tell me | 11:11 |
| balzac | yes | 11:11 |
| balzac | lemme try that again | 11:11 |
| balzac | it's not locked | 11:11 |
| kokoman | pls tell me the realm list | 11:11 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: I just checked with gpg, and it shows both the UID and the photo ID self-signed. | 11:11 |
| kokoman | can you tell me realm list | 11:11 |
| balzac | grawity: suppose I delete that password | 11:12 |
| kokoman | balzac can you tell me the realmlist pls | 11:12 |
| grawity | balzac: Double-click the SSH entry in Seahorse, and check the password. | 11:12 |
| balzac | ok | 11:12 |
| surfzoid | Hi | 11:13 |
| * grawity wishes he could reply 'rtfm' in reply to the realm question. | 11:13 | |
| surfzoid | where can i find termcap library | 11:13 |
| kokoman | balzak are you here | 11:13 |
| balzac | yo | 11:13 |
| MenZa | kokoman: That attitude won't get you anywhere. | 11:14 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: Anyway. You can just tell people that your key ID is 0x79F55575D697A939 (or even, 0xD697A939) and they can get it. | 11:14 |
| kokoman | the realm list can anyone give me | 11:14 |
| balzac | grawity: which one is the SSH entry? I see "my personal keys", "trusted keys" (empty), "other collected keys" (empty), and "password" tabs. | 11:15 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: Actually, most of the time, knowing your email address is enough. | 11:15 |
| grawity | balzac: 'Password' | 11:15 |
| bazhang | kokoman, what is the realm list and how does it relate to ubuntu | 11:15 |
| kokoman | i dont know i ask the same | 11:15 |
| grawity | balzac: The 'Password' tab accesses your Keyring, and you should be able to find the SSH key's password there. | 11:15 |
| kokoman | lol | 11:15 |
| balzac | I double-click that one and I get a properties dialog that says nothing informative | 11:15 |
| bazhang | kokoman, please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic ; this is support for ubuntu only | 11:16 |
| grawity | balzac: Do you see the "Password:" label in it? | 11:16 |
| balzac | nope | 11:16 |
| grawity | balzac: ... _What_ did you double-click on? | 11:16 |
| guntbert | kokoman: you should at least tell us what application you are using - if you want help | 11:16 |
| heyboy | Hello guys. | 11:16 |
| balzac | grawity: I see Passwords: login | 11:16 |

| grawity | balzac: That line "Passwords: login" displays your login keyring. I told you to try unlocking it (if it's locked) | 11:17 |
| balzac | sorry | 11:17 |
| heyboy | Just installed ubuntu karmic. Screen resolution not showing options | 11:17 |
| balzac | it isn't locked, when I right-click I see "unlock" is greyed out and "lock" is available | 11:17 |
| heyboy | just two of them 800x and 600x | 11:17 |

| balzac | that's in the right-click context menu | 11:18 |
| heyboy | ok | 11:18 |
| grawity | balzac: And... it does not list any stored passwords? Below the "Passwords: login" line? | 11:18 |
| balzac | it does not | 11:18 |
| grawity | balzac: And you cannot remember the password of the SSH key either? | 11:18 |
| grawity | balzac: If no, you'll need to create a new key, I guess... | 11:18 |
| balzac | I thought I'd used one of my standard ones | 11:19 |
| balzac | dang | 11:19 |
| balzac | and this is a change on the keyring functionality? | 11:19 |
| westmi | grawity: lol | 11:19 |
| balzac | from an update I did? | 11:19 |
| grawity | westmi: Something funny you see? | 11:19 |
| balzac | well, it gives me a solid excuse for not getting any work done, I guess | 11:19 |

| master_alvaro | what is suggested (meta)package for kde? why "kde".version is 5:48? | 11:22 |
| jasonmchristos | grawity: i just put D697A939 without the 0x , is that ok? | 11:23 |
| grawity | jasonmchristos: It's OK. | 11:23 |
| jasonmchristos | thanks grawity for the help | 11:23 |
| TorcpU | so anyone knows if its possible to make into a portable usb (memory stick) a partition that would be treated as CD drive? I have seen one like that | 11:25 |
| ikonia | TorcpU: if you have seen one like that, you know it's possible | 11:25 |
| grawity | TorcpU: It would require changing the firmware of your USB device. | 11:25 |
| TorcpU | mmh ok | 11:26 |
| TorcpU | that a hard thing? | 11:26 |
| GregoryC | it's my first time here. what does everyone talk about? | 11:26 |
| TorcpU | or even possible | 11:26 |
| grawity | Some pendrives (U3 ones, for example) are programmed at the factory to present a small partition as a CD device (instead of "Mass storage" device). | 11:26 |
| master_alvaro | what about mono? why mono.version is 1.x? | 11:26 |
| grawity | But changing it manually is ... dunno, impossible I guess. | 11:26 |
| ikonia | GregoryC: the channel is about support for the ubuntu linux distribution | 11:26 |
| TorcpU | yes it was U3 I think | 11:26 |
| nic1 | Hi, anyone has an idea about this error message whil logging into xfce session : http://pastebin.com/m30765964 on ubuntu | 11:27 |
| nlogax | yaayy, got the external sound to work | 11:27 |
| grawity | TorcpU: U3 devices are made like that in the factory. | 11:27 |
| TorcpU | okay so I should forget that idea then :P | 11:27 |

| bazhang | h4mx0r, karmic support in #ubuntu+1 | 11:42 |
| ikonia | lilzeus: fake raid has very poor support, and that chipset is one of the weakest of a bad bunch, | 11:42 |
| ikonia | lilzeus: don't install onto fakeraid | 11:42 |
| zipito | Is there a gnome 2.28 repository for ubuntu 9.04 ? | 11:42 |
| h4mx0r | bazhang: hmm must be 9.04 then | 11:42 |

| og01 | lilzeus: why then you need the windows? | 11:49 |
| lilzeus | because I am a complete newb to ubuntu | 11:49 |
| og01 | lilzeus: but if its not a main machine and only used for webserving etc then no problem just using linux? | 11:50 |
| ooypp | uilzeus:welcome to ubuntu | 11:50 |
| og01 | and perhaps having a dual boot main machine also? | 11:50 |
| lilzeus | og01: if I could manage it, I would...so for this machine, windows is my fall-back | 11:50 |

| nic1 | hey guys, can anyone pls tell me what is the easiest way to make irc up on ubuntu? | 12:22 |
| nibbler | nic1: you want to run a server? aptitude search ircd | 12:23 |
| nic1 | ok | 12:24 |
| nic1 | with that i will be able to get a gui? | 12:24 |
| grawity | I don't know of any ircd that has a GUI. | 12:24 |
| nibbler | nic1: nope, irc-servers dont have a gui - well oyu have a irc-client as a gui in the end :p | 12:24 |
| nic1 | or is there any doc, whre i can get a full gui to create a nic, see the list of room available, search among them and join? | 12:24 |
| nic1 | i dont need a irc-served | 12:25 |
| nibbler | nic1: you want a client ora server? | 12:25 |
| nic1 | i only need irc client | 12:25 |
| nic1 | client | 12:25 |
| nibbler | nic1: take xchat-gnome | 12:25 |
| === xx is now known as schiavo35cam | ||

| nic1 | i tried that infact | 12:25 |
| sprink | apt-get install xchat | 12:25 |
| BlouBlou | nic1: and connect localhost | 12:26 |
| nic1 | in this current machine one of my buddies installed on opera and now i need to install on another machine | 12:26 |
| grawity | BlouBlou: He wants an client, not a server. | 12:26 |
| BlouBlou | grawity: oh | 12:26 |
| grawity | nic1: On Linux, get Xchat. (For Windows, either Ychat or mIRC.) | 12:26 |
| BlouBlou | nic1: install xchat, irssi... | 12:26 |
| nic1 | i installed xchat | 12:26 |
| BlouBlou | nic1: sudo apt-get install xchat | 12:26 |
| nic1 | and tried to see the list of rooms and join | 12:26 |
| Ruge | hi folks | 12:27 |
| nic1 | couldn't see any members in the room, except me | 12:27 |
| tonyyarusso | grawity: Why not just stick to one client? XChat works fine on Windows as well. | 12:27 |
| nibbler | nic1: then the room was just created for you | 12:27 |
| ru | I have a peculiar problem with my Toshiba NB100. It seems to lock up whenever it doesn't receive any keyboard/mouse input. For example, if I click a link in Firefox, it changes to a "busy" cursor, but then nothing happens until I move the mouse. Any ideas what could be causing this? | 12:27 |
| nic1 | no meaning in having a special room for me right? | 12:27 |
| nic1 | just kidding, | 12:27 |
| nibbler | nic1: invite others ;-) you should know where you want to go, and go there with your irc-client | 12:27 |
| ikonia | nic1: #xchat has 117 users in it | 12:28 |
| nic1 | what i am trying to tell is i have already installed xchat | 12:28 |
| ikonia | nic1: what's the actual problem then ? | 12:28 |
| nibbler | nic1: alt-c could bring up a channel list, but *use with care* can block your client for minutes... | 12:28 |
| nic1 | and tried, but with no succes | 12:28 |
| grawity | tonyyarusso: Xchat's official Windows build is not free. So I was recommending the other build (by silverex) - which is named "Ychat". | 12:28 |
| nic1 | ikonia, problm is could not see any members in the room | 12:29 |
| ikonia | nic1: in what room ? | 12:29 |
| tonyyarusso | grawity: Silverex is the one I go to as well, but I've never seen it have a different name - screenshot? | 12:29 |
| nibbler | nic1: then you spelled the room wrong, or are on the wrong network | 12:29 |

| chilli0 | Hello , i put in a dvd but it doesn't show up. It came up with something but I couldn't read it , how can i see if there is a dvd there? | 12:45 |
| Letterbomb05 | ^mNotIntelligent, basically I'm trying to install Ubuntu server 9.04 from a USB stick, however I was following the installation instructions when I came across 'Load installer components from CD'. At this point | 12:45 |
| nibbler | Letterbomb05: i guess the cd is just not made to be installed from usb | 12:46 |
| nibbler | Letterbomb05: so you have the original iso file on the usb stick? | 12:46 |
| Letterbomb05 | I was told that the CD-ROM couldn't be mounted (I have nothing IN the CD tray - like I said I'm doing it from USB) | 12:46 |
| Letterbomb05 | yes | 12:46 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | Letterbomb05, nibbler : may be you are right | 12:46 |
| nibbler | Letterbomb05: try manually mounting it: mount -tiso9660 -oloop /path/to/ubuntu.iso /cd-mount-path | 12:47 |
| tonyyarusso | Letterbomb05: I've seen this before... I believe what you need to do is trick it into thinking that the USB stick is actually a CD-ROM. | 12:47 |
| deadman | I have a BT878 series chip on an AverTV Pro Card... which has no linux drivers on the manufacturer's site... so what should i do to get it working under ubuntu 9.04? | 12:47 |

| Letterbomb05 | The machine is currently running Windows XP, I was planning on installing ubuntu on a fresh partition. | 12:47 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | Letterbomb05, did you try loopback mounting, what nibbler said ... | 12:47 |
| MenZa | Letterbomb05: Well, start by setting the 'tf2_spy' flag on it (sorry, I couldn't help myself. I'll go back to my usual, quiet uselessness now) | 12:48 |
| tonyyarusso | nibbler: I would imagine the ISO was "burned" to the USB drive, not just copied. | 12:48 |
| tonyyarusso | Letterbomb05: Well, I know how to make it do that connection once running - trying to think what will affect it in the installer. | 12:48 |
| Letterbomb05 | I'll try the installation again but through loopback mounting, I'll be back soon. | 12:48 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | Letterbomb05, loopback mounting should fix your problem | 12:49 |
| nibbler | tonyyarusso: Letterbomb05: if you have it not as .iso, to a mount -obind /directory/on/usb/with/iso/content /where/it/should/be/mounted | 12:49 |
| Two4 | why is ubottu ignoring me? | 12:49 |
| kaddi | because he's a bot? | 12:50 |
| tonyyarusso | nibbler: Yeah, but that's assuming a running system, not the installer. | 12:50 |
| Letterbomb05 | I'm going to format the USB stick, put the ISO on the stick, then go back to ubuntu on my laptop where i'll loopback mount it from there. | 12:50 |
| nibbler | tonyyarusso: sure,i dontknow if the installer accepts that - if it does only check for existance of files or if it checks the mount output including FS etc | 12:50 |
| nibbler | Letterbomb05: why dont you just burn a cd? | 12:51 |
| deadman | I have a BT878 series chip on an AverTV Pro Card... which has no linux drivers on the manufacturer's site... so what should i do to get it working under ubuntu 9.04? | 12:51 |

| Letterbomb05 | nibbler: I don't have any spare CD's. | 12:51 |

| obsidieth | im trying to troubleshoot a crontab | 12:51 |
| obsidieth | which just isnt working no matter what i try | 12:51 |
| obsidieth | can anyone lend a hand | 12:52 |
| tonyyarusso | Letterbomb05: (although the instructions assume a working Ubuntu environment, so if you only have Windows and no CDs maybe it could be done in cygwin - not sure) | 12:52 |
| nibbler | obsidieth: please just describe your problem, and see if anyone helps. | 12:52 |
| obsidieth | 0 5 * * * /usr/bin/rtorrent | 12:52 |
| obsidieth | 0 9 * * * /usr/bin/killall rtorrent | 12:52 |
| obsidieth | i see no reason why this should not work. | 12:52 |
| obsidieth | the time is set correctly. | 12:52 |
| obsidieth | but it will not launch the program, only kill it. | 12:52 |
| obsidieth | and that is definitely the correct path to rtorrent. | 12:53 |
| obsidieth | so i suspect soemthing else is wrong | 12:53 |
| obsidieth | i even tried gnome-schedule, but that wouldnt launch it either. | 12:53 |
| nibbler | obsidieth: dont use one line per thought please. use commas and stuff | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | i recall using screen/rc.local/ and makign it start rtorrent that way.. ages ago. | 12:53 |
| tonii | obsidieth: rtorrent uses GUI? | 12:53 |
| obsidieth | no. | 12:54 |
| obsidieth | well theres a web frontend, but its not very good. | 12:54 |
| tonii | so it's console? | 12:54 |
| nibbler | obsidieth: the syntax is correct, try reading the users system-email, maybe there is an errormsg | 12:54 |
| obsidieth | it is. | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | why are you killing/restarting rtorrent anyway | 12:54 |
| obsidieth | i have no mail :(, and th exact crontab works on my bsd machine | 12:54 |
| tonii | maybe it don't like being run as root | 12:54 |
| obsidieth | bandwith limitations. | 12:54 |
| obsidieth | thats not on a root crontab. | 12:54 |
| tonii | ah | 12:54 |

| Dr_Willis | I thought rtorrent had a scheduleing feature. | 12:55 |
| tonyyarusso | obsidieth: rtorrent expects an active console to attach to. To run it from cron, you should run it within screen with the -dm options. | 12:55 |
| obsidieth | let me try that. | 12:55 |

| iceroot | innomen: just install ff3.5 and make it the default browser | 13:59 |
| raven_ | is possible to start a tool (ffmpeg) on a server (e.g. ssh) but to take a local (on the client) video file? | 13:59 |
| iceroot | innomen: you cant update, just install ff3.5 and remove 3.0 | 13:59 |
| innomen | iceroot, will that keep all my plugins and booksmarks and saved password etc? and can i then uninstall 3.0 | 13:59 |
| legend2440 | iDangerMouse: just do the steps you can. Especially where it says Set 'Mic' control to capture by pressing the 'spacebar' key on keyboard | 13:59 |
| iceroot | innomen: imo not, just install 3.5 and see, you dont have to remove 3.0 directly | 14:00 |
| innomen | lmao | 14:00 |
| AnirbanHazra | Sagaci: 556 MB dedicated RAM on an OpenVZ VPS | 14:00 |
| iDangerMouse | Its capture with L R Captur | 14:00 |

| Cork | innomen: sudo firefox | 14:03 |

| angelus | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/firefox *** | 14:06 |
| innomen | ManDay, no worries :) | 14:06 |
| Lark007 | i'de like to request that libx11 and glut be added to the new ubuntu to make x11 and opengl programming inherent. | 14:07 |
| Babajus | guys anyone have such configuration? :) | 14:07 |
| Cork | innomen: how do you think i found the information when i installed 3.6? "firefox check for updates disabled" | 14:07 |
| vecto__ | Lark007, Congratulations! | 14:07 |
| Lark007 | libusbdev would also be great. | 14:07 |
| innomen | Cork, seriously go google it and get back to me witht hat awesome firefox 3.5 upgrade deb or a apt get command that will upgrade me to 3.5 | 14:08 |
| Cork | <_<' | 14:08 |
| angelus | innomen : i used this to update my version ... http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/firefox *** ..... | 14:08 |
| Cork | why would you need the deb to upgrade to 3.5?? | 14:08 |
| innomen | Cork, getdeb.net dosent even have a copy of firefox | 14:08 |
| areay | how can i check what graphics driver i'm using from the command line? | 14:08 |
| iceroot | innomen: of course its not working was Cork said. first a gui-app is started with gksudo, not sudo. 2. firefox is using apt-get to update and not the firefox-routine like on windows. so its totaly bullsh*t what Cork said | 14:08 |
| innomen | Cork, because i want to upgrade mine not install a new one | 14:08 |
| innomen | iceroot, i thought so | 14:09 |
| Cork | innomen: then youll be stuck with 3.0, you don't want to replace the browser gnome relies on | 14:09 |
| innomen | iceroot, i didnt attempt it | 14:09 |
| iceroot | !backport | innomen | 14:09 |
| ubottu | innomen: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 14:09 |
| innomen | iceroot, reading, thanky | 14:10 |
| iceroot | innomen: wait 3 weeks and use karmic with ff3.5 or install ff3.5 on jaunty and use 3.0 and 3.5 | 14:10 |
| innomen | iceroot, yea thats cool for now but what if i want 3.6 in karmic, must i wait till the whole next release? thats just insanity | 14:10 |
| iceroot | innomen: also there was a firefox-script which is installing always the newest but dont know the name | 14:11 |
| innomen | i'm reading about backports | 14:11 |
| innomen | one moment | 14:11 |
| Cork | innomen: but honestly to the look and feal totally replacing ff3.0 is like 10 mins of work, the only thing not replaced is that tha ff3.0 files will stil be on your hd | 14:11 |
| innomen | iceroot, yea i saw that but i dont need the bleeding edge, i'm content with a 6 month old update :) | 14:11 |
| stwange | done it, thanks anyway | 14:11 |
| iceroot | innomen: its not bleeding edge, its the current stable release | 14:11 |
| iceroot | innomen: atm 3.5 imo | 14:11 |
| Babajus | Iceero | 14:12 |
| innomen | iceroot, oh? the ppa link given by the page given by the bot mentioned several updates per day | 14:12 |

| almagest_divine | how can i find the com port number of my usb port to which my device is connected? it shows my device in lsusb and dmesg | 14:14 |

| innomen | iceroot, but i thought that just gives me a new blank version of it? i want to update? and i want ot be sure there absolutly isn't a way to do it via apt get before i go download a deb | 14:14 |
| Guest74809 | hi, i have a problem. my ubuntu install doesn't boot, im on the live cd right now. when i try to boot normally it says "out of frequency" and then my monitor goes to standby-mode. | 14:14 |

| almagest_divine | somebody? | 14:14 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about macbookpro | 15:27 |
| ringo999 | !sound | 15:28 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 15:28 |

| sony | i m trying my friend ;) i'll let u know if it'll work | 16:04 |
| melherndon | Opps guess not | 16:04 |
| shawn_ | jefinc And how is the netbook version of Ubuntu was my main question? | 16:04 |
| lolmac | ubuntu's native Archive Manager, comes with no .rar archive filetype support right? Is it possible to i install a command line? "If you have the appropriate command-line tools installed on your system, Archive Manager supports the archive formats listed in the following table." | 16:04 |
| jefinc | shawn_: depends on what you want to use it for... if you're just wanting something to check your emails/browse/word processing etc then it is definitely the way to go | 16:04 |
| melherndon | How does one return from the away? | 16:04 |
| lolmac | a command line to make archive manager .rar supported, or do i have to downolad another .rar reader? | 16:04 |
| jefinc | shawn_: the netbook remix is ubuntu, slimmed, it runs as great as you would expect ubuntu to ever run :) | 16:05 |
| shawn_ | jefinc Well I have an 18 inch laptop right now but its huge (really nice screen) but lacks portability... I'd like a netbook for a really portable alternative for school and programming. | 16:05 |
| zaggynl | melherndon: depending on IRC client, /away | 16:05 |
| zaggynl | err | 16:05 |
| zaggynl | /back | 16:05 |
| mnaines | Can Ubuntu run off a USB Flash Drive? | 16:05 |
| Lord2k9 | shawn yes i use notebook | 16:05 |
| bigdavejoker | ortsvorteher thanks | 16:05 |
| kuna236 | mnaines, for sure | 16:05 |
| melherndon | zaggynl: Thanks...know of a good net site that goes over some of the basic IRC client command syntax? | 16:05 |
| jefinc | shawn_: as long as you don't want it for powerhouse graphics they're great | 16:05 |
| ortsvorsteher | !rar | lolmac | 16:05 |
| ubottu | lolmac: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 16:05 |
| ortsvorsteher | !tab | bigdavejoker | 16:06 |
| ubottu | bigdavejoker: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 16:06 |
| ortsvorsteher | ;) | 16:06 |
| jcdutton | lolmac, 7zip supports reading .rar | 16:06 |
| lolmac | ortsvorsteher: thanks | 16:06 |
| mnaines | kuna236: is it Live only or can I install a full copy to USB? | 16:06 |
| ortsvorsteher | yw | 16:06 |
| shawn_ | jefinc Well obviously I wouldnt want it for graphics xD But are the kyeboards hard to get used to | 16:06 |
| Orlybird | Hey people. I'm new. I need to know one thing: I have 3 computers. 2 are ok and use Windows XP and Windows Vista. The other, has windows 2000 professional and is used by my mother to send emails and few other things. The problem is, this computer is CRAWLING with only 533Mhz clock speed and 256MB RAM. I can't update it right now so I'm asking you: | 16:06 |
| Orlybird | Would xubuntu be able to: Use our current home network; print a few things; use the internet. IS it very hard for a 58 year old woman to learn how to use? | 16:06 |
| jefinc | shawn_: my friend uses the LG110 and loves it | 16:06 |
| ortsvorsteher | !ot | Orlybird | 16:06 |
| ubottu | Orlybird: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 16:06 |
| zaggynl | melherndon: not really, better check your IRC client's manual | 16:06 |
| kuna236 | mnaines: I haven't tried it as a full version, but you can adjust persistency space on the flash, and you'll be able to keep files and settings | 16:06 |
| bigdavejoker | ortsvorsteher: thanks didn't know that | 16:06 |
| shawn_ | jefinc I think I'll still get this one then | 16:06 |
| kuna236 | zaggynl: http://strategywiki.org/wiki/StrategyWiki:Guide/IRC | 16:07 |
| jefinc | shawn_: if you're doing programming and been using a comp/efficient with a keyboard then you'll be use to it within a week | 16:07 |
| ortsvorsteher | bigdavejoker: no problem we all learn everyday something new ... | 16:07 |
| mnaines | Orlybird: My dad turned 60 this year, and he didn't have any problems learning to use Ubuntu. Ubuntu should work on 256MB of RAM and shouldn't have a problem on a 533MHz clock speed | 16:07 |
| melherndon | Orlybird: What are you trying to do? Xubuntu would not be a great choice in my opinion if learning curve is an issue | 16:07 |
| shawn_ | jefinc Oh alrighty that's not so bad then | 16:07 |
| jefinc | shawn_: and ubuntu is always the way to go, windoze for games, ubuntu for everything else | 16:07 |
| melherndon | zaggynl: Thank then... | 16:08 |
| Lord2k9 | shwan i am usinf asus eeepc900 just now solved my wifi card driver but it worth trial | 16:08 |
| shawn_ | jefinc Trust me I know that... I use Ubuntu on all of my computers. I just have never tried the netbook remix and wanted to know what it was like | 16:08 |
| kuna236 | if you've got a strong enough machine, you could just run XP in VirtualBox and play from there | 16:08 |
| Pilif12p | whats the apt-get for MySQL ? | 16:08 |
| Orlybird | I heard the xubuntu is even lighter than ubuntu... that's why i wanted to give it a try... How about the netwrok? would it work like in windows? | 16:08 |

| ortsvorsteher | bigdavejoker: try there, cause i have no idea at moment ;) youre welcome | 16:12 |
| melherndon | Orlybird: It is possible..but there are so many variables...SAMBA is best to setup to allow connection to from linux to windows | 16:13 |
| Orlybird | that's discouraging... i always wanted to try the linux systems but changing all the network at once would be a nono... i thought these problems were a thing of the past.. | 16:13 |
| bigdavejoker | mnaines what is the issue your having that they won't communicate what exactly are you trying ot do | 16:13 |
| Orlybird | I'veheard about SAMBA... how does it work? | 16:13 |
| shawn_ | Does Moblin Ubuntu work for any netbook? | 16:13 |

| melherndon | Orlybird: It depends on the distribution of linux..for example I have a dual band router that supports G and N bands...I was able to use Ubuntu right away after entering my password to connect to the network | 16:14 |
| Orlybird | I've heard about SAMBA like 3 years ago :( | 16:14 |

| mnaines | Orlybird: Ubuntu will run on 256, but that's the bare minimum requirements | 16:18 |
| Orlybird | yes i understand... so it's exactly like win2k... | 16:19 |
| Drule | IdleOne: THe problem isn't that I can't reconnect, the problem is that Ubuntu won't maintain its connection to my network. A slight disconnect and I have to connect it manually. | 16:19 |

| grawity | mathepic: All your settings are stored in your homedir (usually /home/mathepic), and the package manager (which handles upgrades) _never_ touches it. | 18:09 |

| grawity | pcteacher012: Try 'traceroute' | 18:56 |
| pcteacher012 | ab2qik1: It has the possibility if more than one things, for the same thing, is installed. So if Gnash, and Adobe are installed at same time, it wont play. Gnash also is not very good. | 18:57 |
| blueglasses | grawity, actully it will give you execute permitions too, wich in this case might mean acess to the directory | 18:57 |

| Random832 | grawity: really? not 4.x? | 19:01 |
| grawity | dad1: uname -a | 19:01 |
| ab2qik1 | pcteacher012: Searching under flash in add/remove i see the following: Gstreamer, adobe flash plugin(just installed), Movie player. THats it. Testing it now. | 19:01 |

| lassetehguy | hello everyone, i have ubuntu 9.04 installed on my computer, but i just recently installed a copy of windows on another partition, for dual booting, but obviously this removed the grub bootloader. im in an old ubuntu live cd right now to try and restore it but its not working. can someone help me? i've followed ALL the tutorials on the internet but either works | 19:15 |
| ravimaggon | grawity:welcome to xampp for linux | 19:15 |
| grawity | LyonJT: Oh, _another_ thing I forgot... you added yourself to a group, so you'll need to re-login - or run "exec newgrp www" | 19:15 |
| grawity | ravimaggon: It's in /var/www | 19:15 |

| ravimaggon | grawity: what is in var/www? | 19:16 |
| grawity | pcteacher012: What folder? | 19:16 |
| pcteacher012 | ab2qik1: Okay, but one last thing | 19:16 |
| pcteacher012 | grawity: It is jre1.6.0_16 | 19:16 |
| grawity | pcteacher012: You use 'chmod' too, but only the directory's owner (or root) can change its permissions. | 19:16 |
| LyonJT | grawity: your soo good thank you so much! | 19:16 |
| FuzzyFox0 | wait it just started on its own?! I did nothing other than pull the dvd out and put it back in a few times :S is that normal? | 19:16 |

| mathepic | Yes, but are there known big problems with it | 19:17 |
| scunizi | If it was stable it wouldn't be beta | 19:17 |

| grawity | scunizi: But it's scheduled for release in 3 weeks, so it's not very beta anymore. | 19:18 |
| mitchum | can i create a script that will connect me to an sftp server without prompting me to input anything? (obviously it'd be in the script) | 19:18 |

| matt___ | Here is something I don't understand. I essentially had an NTFS formatted hard disk, and copied all my data from my ext3 to ntfs with cp -r, waited, it finished, then I formatted the ext3 drive, and then realized that, for whatever reason, not all of the /Music/*/* folders copied.

| vijay | can anybody help me | 19:20 |
| pcteacher012 | grawity: Ooh, okay. What would have been the chmod to give me position to read/write/remove it? | 19:21 |
| sharef | dont ask to ask, just ask your Q | 19:21 |
| abderrahim | vous parler francer non | 19:21 |
| ab2qik1 | pcteacher012: edit -> prefs -> applications -> flash file. THis is listed twice? Nothing else. | 19:21 |
| rot | mitchum: you could do it with perl and Net::SFTP | 19:21 |
| grawity | pcteacher012: Usually, if it's located in a system directory (/etc, /var, /usr, etc) - it's better to not do that, and just use "sudo" or "su" every time. (It shouldn't be _that_ often you need to do it.) | 19:22 |
| pcteacher012 | ab2qik1: No swf or spl? | 19:22 |
| pcteacher012 | grawity: It was on my desktop :p | 19:22 |
| grawity | mitchum: Add the servers to your ~/.ssh/config | 19:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | mitchum, look into ssh's key authentication, then no password is required -- good luck | 19:22 |
| mitchum | grawity: in my ~/.ssh there is only 'known_hosts' | 19:23 |
| sharef | x over ssh is way cool | 19:23 |
| grawity | mitchum: Then _create_ a 'config' | 19:23 |
| mitchum | grawity: then just type the server addresses one each line? | 19:24 |
| ab2qik1 | pcteacher012: it says, use shockwave flash file(in firefox) | 19:24 |

| sharef | bad video file vijay | 19:24 |
| pcteacher012 | ab2qik1: It should be Shockwave Flash Player | 19:24 |
| grawity | mitchum: Here, an example: http://dpaste.com/105823/plain/ | 19:24 |
| vijay | sharef : it works with windows vlc | 19:25 |
| sharef | u using linux vlc vijay? | 19:25 |
| mitchum | grawity: thanks. will that also "mount" those servers on my desktop? | 19:25 |
| mitchum | grawity: just like the 'connect to server' does? | 19:25 |
| grawity | mitchum: No - but the "Connect to server" window allows adding "bookmarks". | 19:25 |
| ab2qik1 | pcteacher012: ok, installing again, then cheking f.f. | 19:25 |
| vijay | sharef: yes i have updated all codecs and gstream totem | 19:25 |
| mitchum | grawity: oh okay maybe i'll try that out. | 19:26 |
| sharef | use linux vlc, not totem vijay, if that doesnt work then you have issues i cant help with | 19:26 |

| Platonov | I see that tail /var/log/dmesg isn't as up to date as dmesg | tail | 19:28 |
| mitchum | grawity: well i have been connecting to these servers often, and i saved the passwords in my keyring, so when i go through the connect to server dialog, it goes straight in w/o password | 19:28 |
| danielwyatt | can i install on a powerbook g4? | 19:28 |
| Platonov | is there a way to fix that? | 19:28 |
| grawity | mitchum: But that doesn't apply to 'ssh' from terminal, no? | 19:28 |
| mitchum | grawity: correct | 19:28 |
| mitchum | grawity: doesn't do that with ssh | 19:28 |

| Duskin | much better | 19:29 |
| lstarnes | DRoC16OMG: you don't need to capitalise those words | 19:29 |
| grawity | mitchum: To create a SSH key, you can use either 'seahorse' (a GUI app), or 'ssh-keygen' from Terminal. | 19:29 |

| Doonz | hey guys is there a terminal program that is identical to putty on ubuntu 9.04 desktop | 19:32 |
| grawity | Doonz: xterm is quite similar. | 19:33 |
| lstarnes | DRoC16OMG: putty | 19:33 |
| mrwes | Doonz, terminal | 19:33 |
| lstarnes | DRoC16OMG: sorry, that was for Doonz | 19:33 |
| grawity | Doonz: And yeah, there _is_ a 'putty' package for Ubuntu. | 19:33 |
| Doonz | lstarnes: theres putty for linux | 19:33 |
| Doonz | YAY | 19:33 |
| * Doonz runs off to get it | 19:33 | |
| dad1 | Duskin: joebodo is right but you might try crunchbang | 19:33 |
| lstarnes | Doonz: putty is available, but most utilities used in putty have separate command line interpretations | 19:33 |
| lstarnes | Doonz: like ssh | 19:33 |
| grawity | Doonz: But it's better to just use xterm/rxvt/gnome-terminal, along with 'ssh' | 19:33 |
| sharef | would someone with much python knowledge PM me? the python channel is inactive atm | 19:33 |
| Doonz | im using the basic terminal righ now but i dont like how it handles copy and pasting | 19:34 |
| grawity | Doonz: Doesn't PuTTY do it exactly the same way? | 19:34 |
| ubuntu | i have installed metatracker but, it wont start from terminal. | 19:34 |
| elpapo_ | someone more then me that use xubuntu with the ps3? Just installed it... works... but some slow. | 19:34 |
| llutz | Doonz: mark with left mouse, paste with middle | 19:34 |
| mrwes | Doonz, ctrl shift + v | 19:35 |
| Doonz | yeah i kno | 19:35 |
| Doonz | dont like that tho | 19:35 |
| mrwes | ahh...k | 19:35 |
| scunizi | Doonz: if you don't have a middle like on a laptop touchpad.. then both buttons at the same time.. | 19:35 |
| Duskin | dad1: the problem with ubuntu and crunchbang is neither of them show me a download for PPC | 19:35 |
| ubuntu | i have installed metatracker but, it wont start from terminal. says tracker not found | 19:35 |
| joebodo | Doonz or shift-insert | 19:35 |
| Doonz | lets try this out | 19:35 |

| ZykoticK9 | Duskin, 8.10 Alternate CD's for PPC are still available http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/intrepid/release/ | 19:35 |
| scunizi | grkblood13: whereis <package> | 19:35 |
| lstarnes | grkblood13: dpkg -L packagename will list the files installed by the package | 19:35 |
| grkblood13 | thanks | 19:36 |
| ubuntu | can someone help me with tracker? | 19:36 |
| Rigongia | ploc : it's all a matter of kernel version and e2fsprogs | 19:36 |
| joebodo | duskin http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/jaunty/release/ | 19:36 |
| ManhDung_IT90 | hi | 19:37 |
| Duskin | zykotick9: thanks for the link. do you know if i can update past 8.10 or will i be stuck with it | 19:37 |
| Duskin | joebodo: thank you also | 19:37 |
| ploc | Rigongia: which kernel version ? I'm gonna check distrowatch | 19:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | Duskin, i have no idea -- i don't own any apple hardware | 19:37 |
| Duskin | zykotick9: nevermind, looks like joebodo linked me for the 9.04 install | 19:38 |
| Rigongia | well, basically almost any 2.6 afaik ... let's say a 2.6.x will do if you modprobe the ext4 module | 19:38 |
| Duskin | sykotick9: thanks anyway | 19:38 |
| Rigongia | then you'll have to have the right e2fsprogs to mount, check and tune the filesystem | 19:38 |

| danger_ | hello quick quesion, my NAS drive gets mounted to ~/.gvfs but when I sudo -i and try to access that it, it gives me permission denied anyone know why this is? | 19:40 |
| grawity | danger_: ~/.gvfs is a FUSE mountpoint, and FUSE doesn't allow access to anyone else. | 19:40 |
| ploc | It seems that 9.04 is the only one able to read and write on ext4 natively... | 19:40 |
| dennis00 | How can apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop xubuntu-desktop, it only frees 97kb it says, am I doing something wrong? | 19:40 |
| grawity | danger_: How exactly is it mounted - SMB, SSH, WebDAV? | 19:41 |
| danger_ | It's windows share I | 19:41 |
| lstarnes | dennis00: it | 19:41 |
| grawity | dennis00: Those two are only "metapackages" - they don't have any files of their own, but they have all the KDE/Xfce stuff as dependencies. | 19:41 |
| dennis00 | ohhh, that sux big time. | 19:41 |
| lstarnes | dennis00: it's a metapackage. you'll have to remove its dependent packages manually | 19:41 |
| dennis00 | I want to undo those installs. | 19:41 |
| grawity | danger_: SMB then. Try using mount.cifs instead of GVFS. | 19:41 |
| dennis00 | It installed office etc. I don't need office, I use notepad. | 19:41 |
| Rigongia | ploc : unless you don't want to deal with kernel recompiling and backporting an e2fsprogs package back to earlier Ubuntus, with the obvious dependency hell to face | 19:41 |
| danger_ | will do thanks grawity | 19:42 |
| ubuntu | anyone here have experience with tracker? | 19:42 |
| lstarnes | ploc: ubuntu 9.04 and later versions have ext4 support | 19:42 |
| grawity | danger_: mount.cifs //host/sharename /mnt -o user=joe,file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8 - this is what I usually use. | 19:43 |
| assoguerozen_sx | ext4 seems to be short time file system | 19:43 |
| vinzO | ? | 19:43 |
| assoguerozen_sx | btrfs coming fast | 19:43 |
| Rigongia | assoguerozen : what do you mean by "short time" ? | 19:43 |

| q0_0p | does anyone know if bcm4318 and atheros wg511t supports master mode? | 19:48 |
| llutz | choppyhorse: because you made something wrong it you need swap on regular base | 19:48 |
| llutz | s/it/if/ | 19:48 |
| ActionParsnip | choppyhorse: due to the random accessing of the disk it makes little difference | 19:48 |
| grawity | murielgodoi: Deep inside, they're just usual RSA keys, and it _is_ possible to use a PGP key for SSH... but it requires some deep magic. | 19:48 |

| areay | i'm trying to use the restricted hardware drivers app to install the FGLRX driver for my ATI video card... i select the driver, press 'Activate', and nothing happens... i'm using jaunty | 19:55 |
| xzaz | Alexxx with VLC? | 19:55 |
| Rigongia | xzaz : just a check ... lsmod does show you that the modules for your wireless and/or wired network card ? | 19:55 |
| Rigongia | are being loaded by the kernel* | 19:55 |
| scunizi | I've just rebooted twice to try to get rid of a zombie process.. it isn't going away.. when I first open system monitor I see 2 zombie processes.. lsb-release and sh. lsb-release goes away and sh remains.. this is on 8.04.. Any ideas? | 19:56 |
| Guest22566 | Areay I wouldn't recommend installing ATI drivers with Jaunty. | 19:56 |
| Guest22566 | I had nothing but issues trying to do that | 19:56 |
| areay | Guest22566, any reason? | 19:56 |
| areay | oh | 19:56 |
| areay | ok | 19:56 |
| danger_ | bye all | 19:56 |
| areay | i've been trying to get it to work for almost 5 hours now | 19:56 |
| areay | and nothing's working | 19:56 |
| Guest22566 | Not sure, but I think next version of ATI for Ubuntu should fix the issue | 19:56 |
| Alexxx | yeah VLC | 19:57 |
| Alexxx | totem just doesnt play some stuff | 19:57 |
| Guest22566 | Don't bother just wait for next drivers. I have an 4850 and I left as it is | 19:57 |
| areay | Guest22566, i need hardware acceleration to work... i dont understand why canonical/ubuntu would release a non-working version of the ati drivers.. | 19:58 |
| The_ManU_212 | hi | 19:58 |
| Guest22566 | it works with previous ATI cards | 19:58 |
| xzaz | @Rigongia, well thats the thing i guess nothing is loaded at this time. I followed this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff | 19:58 |
| The_ManU_212 | does thuanr has a undo feature? | 19:58 |
| Guest22566 | not the 4800/5800 generations | 19:58 |
| scunizi | areay: it's ati that broke compatibility.. not canonical/ubuntu.. happened to other distros too. | 19:58 |
| Alexxx | xzaz, so whats the deal with VLC? | 19:58 |
| areay | scunizi, can't we use an older version? my card isn't that new... (it's a hd3200) | 19:58 |
| xzaz | Alexxx schocking video's are video drivers | 19:59 |
| Guest22566 | me on the other hand I am trying to edit GRUB so I can dual boot Ubuntu/Windows 7 but only Ubuntu shows up and boot automatically. this is driving me nuts please help. | 20:00 |
| Alexxx | and why only vlc is affected? and what do I do? I think I have an integrated card | 20:00 |
| scunizi | areay: the problem is also an updated version of something else in linux (generic across distros pretty much) that is not compatible with the older drivers and that same thing is what ati didn't address with the new drivers. | 20:00 |
| Rigongia | xzaz : how did you guess nothing's loaded ? | 20:00 |
| scunizi | areay: otherwise kown as a rock and a hard place | 20:00 |

| StarLionIsaac | Alexxx: It depends on your IRC client. For XChat, right click and select "Open Dialog Window" | 20:01 |
| xzaz | Rigongia, also im getting some wierd very quickly errors while starting. These are linked to my lan/wlan any way to see them? | 20:01 |
| Alexxx | no, I meant in the public chat | 20:01 |
| Alexxx | and Im in webirc | 20:01 |
| StarLionIsaac | Alexxx: Just type their name at the start, that does the rest | 20:02 |
| grawity | Alexxx: Start typing someone's nick, press Tab to auto-complete it. | 20:02 |
| Guest22566 | Anybody who can help me? | 20:02 |
| scunizi | Alexxx: you mean highlight their line? or send a private message? | 20:02 |
| Alexxx | xzaz: ah ic | 20:02 |
| Rigongia | xzaz : so your wired network card should work anyway you should be able to find the error messages into the output of the 'dmesg' command | 20:02 |

| matelot | how to increase the line length (so it doesn't wrap) ? | 20:31 |
| GodfatherofEire | Rigongia2, rebooted, got the error # for you. Error 11, same thing on booting into the kernels and chainloading into grub 2 | 20:31 |

| grawity | matelot: Are you using 'screen', 'tmux', or something like that? | 20:32 |
| nu2linux | ActionParsnip by sharing i am opening holes? do you guys do this ? | 20:32 |
| matelot | grawity, no i use gnome term | 20:32 |
| nu2linux | ActionParsnip i mean do you have windows machines too, and what do you do? | 20:32 |
| Rigongia2 | afk | 20:32 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: i dont use windows, you could have a script that could prompt you to enter the password but its a bit of a chore | 20:33 |
| matelot | grawity, i want to reduce line wrap | 20:33 |
| grawity | matelot: Without any additional programs? Hmm. Try 'Terminal' --> 'Reset' | 20:33 |

| maestro | lewder: sudo apt-get remove linux-restricted-general I think | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | xzaz: you could jump into network manager and define the gateway address | 20:34 |
| guntbert | matelot: ah I see: pipe your output to less | 20:34 |
| GodfatherofEire | Could somebody help me with upgrading to grub2? Keep getting error 11 when trying to chainload into grub 2 or even just to boot into the recovery kernel | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | xzaz: if its a desktop you can define all the network in the interfaces file and ditch network manager | 20:34 |
| maestro | lewder: this will remove all restricted drivers | 20:34 |

| nu2linux | funny how i had a network working right after my install of ubuntu, but after updates its broke? | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Prokroustis: 32bit can only address about that much ram, you need the 64bit one | 20:38 |
| Arabus | Prokroustis: 32 bit can only handle ~3GB of memory | 20:38 |
| VousDeux | Is this the best room for discussions on the server version...or is it mostly desktop gui discussions here? | 20:38 |
| maestro | Prokroustis: you can maybe try using the server kernel | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | procrastinator: 2^32 is less than the addressing needed for 6Gb ram (unless you use PAE) | 20:38 |

| lewder | maestro, thing is that i used hardware drivers app to install the drivers first, which worked in X, but when i tried to switch out to console, the colors were all fussy and console didnt work. so thats why i tried to install the ati drivers downloaded from ati's site. and they wouldnt work at all. | 20:40 |

| [fade] | xzaz rmmod module_name | 20:46 |
| [fade] | you can list modules by typing lsmod | 20:46 |
| grawity | steven_: Wireshark needs to access the network card, so it will always require root. | 20:46 |
| steven_ | Lame | 20:46 |
| grawity | steven_: You can, however, tell sudo to run it without asking for a password. | 20:47 |
| steven_ | No way around that eh? | 20:47 |
| VCoolio | hello, I translated a .po file to dutch (nl) for some app, that's ok; now how do I set language to nl so I can check if it works ok? "export LANG=nl" didn't do it | 20:47 |

| GodfatherofEire | Istarnes: 8.04 to 8.10 did | 20:49 |

| guntbert | xzaz: I guess you did something wrong :-) - have you given up? | 20:49 |
| steven_ | How do I stop that? Is there a way to cancel root password so that it needs to be typed again? Thought I read that somewhere... | 20:49 |
| lstarnes | MrStein: they're archives of the packages that you installed | 20:50 |
| grawity | steven_: Anyhow... 'sudo visudo', go to the end, add a line like this: your-username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /path/to/wireshark | 20:50 |
| steven_ | Perhaps it is not worth the trouble...heh | 20:50 |
| MrStein | what I want is FF 3.5, without the Shiretoko stuff, is that possible? | 20:51 |

| tech|Rogue | yeah, just download the linux binary from getfirefox.com | 20:51 |
| grawity | lstarnes: He wants the official branding. | 20:51 |
| nu2linux | granted i am new but not dumb, this should be do-able, i mean how can i learn this way? | 20:51 |
| grawity | MrStein: c) use Ubuntuzilla to download the official build. | 20:51 |
| GodfatherofEire | MrStein: Use the source from Mozilla | 20:51 |
| xzaz | guntbert yhe i guess | 20:51 |

| GodfatherofEire | Drop_tables, make sure you download all the dependencies when you download that package (From a computer that actually has a connection obviously) | 21:23 |

| === aaron__ is now known as ben_the_man | ||
| coz_ | dwarder, i doubt you can with intel...and even if you could it would use up way too much resources | 21:24 |
| zamba | coz_: oh.. no.. i need something that's ONLY developed for windows | 21:24 |
| zamba | coz_: it's a norwegian program | 21:24 |
| xzaz | guntbert, well vmware is not neccesery | 21:24 |
| zamba | coz_: rarely used anywhere else | 21:24 |
| coz_ | zamba, ah sorry guy | 21:24 |
| xzaz | i only had it installed for checking it out.. its not a must have | 21:24 |
| nu2linux | ActionParsnip, which one? i am getting lost in this | 21:24 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: smbtree servername | 21:24 |
| h2so4 | zamba: vmware on the ubuntu box, or run the app on a terminal server | 21:25 |
| zamba | h2so4: ah.. terminal server.. that's probably the solution i'm looking for for.. more details here? | 21:25 |
| zamba | h2so4: basically just a windows server box that hosts the applications? | 21:25 |
| h2so4 | yep | 21:25 |
| === Keiichi is now known as Vithzerai | ||
| zamba | h2so4: is it possible to skip authentication here as well? | 21:26 |
| h2so4 | server 2008 has remote app, which is pretty much identical to Citrix at this point | 21:26 |
| h2so4 | server 2003 will do terminal services, but unless you get Citrix as well you'll have to use a full deskop session which isn't exactly seamless | 21:27 |

| xzaz | guntbert, can you tell me trough the big forest of ways to install the wireless drivers what the best way is? | 21:28 |
| lstarnes | !opera | DeathFox | 21:28 |
| ubottu | DeathFox: Opera is an advanced, fast and free (as in beer) web browser. It is packaged for easy installation into Ubuntu. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser | 21:28 |
| nu2linux | ActionParsnip, my ip and stuff | 21:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: use network manager in the system tray | 21:28 |
| nu2linux | ActionParsnip, how | 21:28 |
| guntbert | xzaz: removing costs as much time as reconfiguring - it goes (nearly) automatically - but I'll leave that to yourself of course - I guess that everything will work ok, when vmware is out of the way | 21:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: double click it and look at it | 21:28 |
| nu2linux | ActionParsnip, i already tried on my own | 21:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: if you just want to know your IP you can use: ifconfig | 21:28 |
| guntbert | !wireless | xzaz have you already seen | 21:28 |
| ubottu | xzaz have you already seen: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 21:29 |

| lilzeus | also, 3.01 is still on...can I remove it? | 21:32 |

| StarLionIsaac | lilzeus, of course, you can safely remove it and shiretoko aka firefox 3.5 will import settings | 21:32 |
| lilzeus | nice | 21:32 |
| GodfatherofEire | Hmm, this is odd. | 21:32 |

| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: type the password you use on windows for your username for the smb password | 21:34 |
| StarLionIsaac | lilzeus, sure, just use the menu editor, should be in System->Preferances, and edit the entry yourself | 21:34 |
| guntbert | !repeat | nodetecthd | 21:34 |
| ubottu | nodetecthd: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 21:34 |

| GodfatherofEire | I cant seem to get it to use AIM, IRC, MSN, etc accounts, only Jabber, Google talk etc. | 21:38 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: the password you use for your username that you have set on the windows side (you asid you had the same usernam,e and password on the windows side) set the smbpasswd to THAT | 21:38 |
| dwarder | how can i set xf86-video-intel video driver | 21:38 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: so if your password on the windows side was Pa$$w0rd then type that as the smbpasswd too | 21:38 |
| ActionParsnip | nu2linux: the smbpasswd may be used for connecting to windows shares so will need to match | 21:38 |

| lilzeus | ActionParsnip: do any of these plugins have the ability to highlight messages addressed to me? like what they start "lilzeus: xxxx" | 22:05 |

| eise_ | guntbert: just ant to inform you WLAN is working :) | 22:06 |

| suseflanders | ActionParsnip, so then nothing is ever "swapped to disk" when swap is disabled? It always stays in RAM? | 22:06 |

| ActionParsnip | suseflanders: if you dont have a swap partition the OS has nothing to swap to, you can reduce swappiness to a very low number to try and keep apps in ram | 22:07 |

| ActionParsnip | chelsea: read what i said to suseflanders | 22:11 |
| masterfu | i got a little question for upgrading to xubuntu 9.04 | 22:12 |
| masterfu | Upgrading may reduce desktop effects, and performance in games and other graphically intensive programs. | 22:12 |
| masterfu | This computer is currently using the AMD 'fglrx' graphics driver. No version of this driver is available that works with your hardware in Ubuntu 9.04. | 22:12 |
| masterfu | Do you want to continue? | 22:12 |
| suseflanders | ActionParsnip, I think she should get rid of anything gnash-related. | 22:12 |
| masterfu | what is this? | 22:12 |
| chelsea | what i can do | 22:13 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: sudo apt-get --purge remove adobe-flashplugin flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound gnash gnash-common mozilla-plugin-gnash |libswfdec-0.8-0 swfdec-gnome swfdec-mozilla | 22:13 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: that will get rid of ALL flash | 22:13 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: yuo can then run: sudo apt-get install flashplugion-nonfree and you will have a single flash plugin rather than 100 and you will be fine | 22:14 |
| starke | i guess nobody knows *shrugs* | 22:14 |
| masterfu | so do you guys know anything about that? | 22:14 |
| masterfu | should i upgrade or no? | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | masterfu: i think you'll just find you need to reinstall the video driver | 22:15 |
| masterfu | oh | 22:15 |
| masterfu | so i just click yes? | 22:15 |
| ActionParsnip | masterfu: sure, you may have to revert to vesa driver before rebooting | 22:15 |

| djp` | when using aptitude it installs dependencies and recommended packages by default. if i use aptitude purge to remove a package at a later date, does it remove any installed recommended packages as well as the dependencies or just the dependencies only? | 22:20 |
| suseflanders | chelsea, don't use the pipe ( | ) symbol. | 22:20 |
| chelsea | this problem because i have adminstarator user | 22:20 |
| thedude42 | purge removes the configuration files along with the app | 22:21 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: you dont need sudo su, the command had sudo at the start of it to give it the admin priveledge | 22:21 |
| thedude42 | dependencies that are no longer required are removed with auto-remove | 22:21 |
| Dream-Ubu | yay hey parsnip! | 22:21 |
| chelsea | you understood me | 22:21 |
| djp` | thedude42, ah, thanks. but this doesn't remove any installed recommended packages, is that correct? | 22:21 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: become YOUR user again and try the command again | 22:22 |
| thedude42 | correct | 22:22 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: oops theres a pipe in there by accident | 22:22 |
| chelsea | iam now adminstrator user not root | 22:22 |

| chelsea | for this probleme i make adminstrator user | 22:23 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: thats the command, run it as your user | 22:23 |
| djp` | thedude42: thanks. so disabling recommended packages install by default with aptitiude would be the best bet for keeping ones system as clean as possible in case of the need for an auto-remove later on? | 22:23 |
| coordinador | when i try to open a link from any application, the link doesnt open, what can i do? | 22:23 |
| ActionParsnip | chelsea: its not needed EVER, thats what sudo is for (and gksudo for gui apps) | 22:23 |

| coordinador | yes, ActionParsnip | 22:25 |
| thedude42 | djp`, yeah, or using apt-get on the command line which tells you about reccomended packages but doesn't install them | 22:25 |

| coordinador | ActionParsnip, i am using an old home dir from an old system install, may be this is making a problem | 22:27 |
| djp` | thedude42, cheers. yes, i use aptitude on the commandline at the moment. think i may change to apt-get in future. i believe apt-get now supports auto-remove. thanks for all the advice. most appreciated thedude42. :) | 22:27 |
| Inverse | Could anyone give me any pointer on how to SSH tunnel DC++? | 22:27 |

| timbojimbo | That is the idea. I just aquired another HDD and I want to install xubuntu or arcch linux on it and put all my movie or music on it to free up disk space. Probably movies... The plan it to make on HDD for movies and one for internet and such. Mostley because I am on a budget otherwise I would just buy a much larger HDD | 22:45 |
| sebsebseb | timbojimbo: Ubuntu is the base, then you choose what you want to run on top of that, Gnome, KDE, XFCE, etc | 22:46 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, you don't need to install an OS on it. | 22:46 |
| system404 | kl they easy to use | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | timbojimbo: and you can have a few installed and pick which one you want to run from the log in screen | 22:46 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, you can just mount the entire drive (single partition) within Ubuntu, and use it as a storage mount, for movies, music, etc. | 22:46 |
| timbojimbo | I know I can slave it but i dont want to | 22:46 |

| suseflanders | timbojimbo, is it already formatted in ext3 or ext4 (or whatever filesystem you prefer?) | 22:47 |

| erUSUL | jagjr: run « id » on a terminal. paste the result | 23:04 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, pretty much, start up Gparted (System > Administration > Partition Editor) | 23:04 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: I never thought it would be an issue either. but I have heard of some similar problems | 23:04 |
| erUSUL | chrome_: iotop ? | 23:04 |
| === chrome_ is now known as chrome | ||
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: right right. I can do the some in terminal. Which i personally like better | 23:05 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, then switch to the physical disk (might be /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc, it depends.) I would make sure that the external is not plugged in. | 23:05 |
| chrome | erUSUL: thanks :) | 23:05 |
| jagjr | http://pastebin.com/m2393c6ca | 23:05 |
| Raydiation | on which packages does banshee depend? | 23:05 |
| erUSUL | chrome: no problem | 23:05 |
| erUSUL | Raydiation: apt-cache show banshee | 23:05 |
| VCoolio | hello, I translated a .po file to dutch (nl) for some app, that's ok; now how do I set language to nl so I can check if it works ok? "export LANG=nl" didn't do it | 23:05 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: Definitely no external | 23:05 |
| chrome | erUSUL: of course, it stopped as soon as I installed iotop :P | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | Raydiation: Banshee uses Mono | 23:06 |
| Raydiation | erUSUL: my karmic broke this morning | 23:06 |
| erUSUL | !karmic | Raydiation | 23:06 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, and then just delete the partition on the drive and format a new one (primary partition), to use up all the space. Use ext3 or ext4, or whatever. | 23:06 |
| ubottu | Raydiation: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic is BETA and MAY break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 23:06 |
| Raydiation | im trying to find out if gst-plugins-gnomevfs is a dependency of banshee | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | Raydiation: also #ubuntu+1 is the Karmic channel | 23:06 |
| Raydiation | sebsebseb: im writing from gentoo | 23:06 |
| erUSUL | Raydiation: probably yes | 23:06 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, finally, add an entry in your /etc/fstab to mount the new partition to a location upon bootup. | 23:06 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: and then just use it like a back up drive right? | 23:06 |
| Raydiation | can anyone of you do a quick view? | 23:06 |
| teddy9 | Enter text here...hi | 23:06 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, yes. You can create a shortcut to it, put it on the desktop or whatever (favorite places, etc) | 23:07 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: if my current is working like a slave how can i check that to make sure? | 23:07 |
| Raydiation | cause gst-plugins-gnomevfs breaks smb stuff | 23:07 |
| stuff | Do I install 9.10 of UNR to usb key the same way I did 9.04 despite the fact that 9.04 was .img and 9.10 is .iso? | 23:07 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, you mean you're using the old PATA drives? (Wide, flat IDE ribbon cables?) | 23:07 |
| stuff | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook-remix/daily-live/current/ I'm doing this in order to get UNR with .31 kernel, this is the page I'm on | 23:07 |
| sebsebseb | stuff: uhmm 9.10 isn't out properly yet that's October 29th and the Karmic channel is currently #ubuntu+1 | 23:07 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: yes that is correct. remember: pc on a budget? | 23:08 |
| stuff | I need .31 | 23:08 |
| jagjr | erUSUL? any help? | 23:08 |
| stuff | sebsebseb, what do you recommend? | 23:08 |
| erUSUL | Raydiation: on 9.04 http://paste.ubuntu.com/291159/ | 23:08 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, you would have to check the jumper settings on the back of the drive, and check to see which connector (on the ribbon cable) it's using. The connecter on the tip is the Master, the one in the middle is Slave. | 23:08 |
| sebsebseb | stuff: going to the other channel that's what I recommend :D I also wonder why you want 31, but you can tell me that in there | 23:08 |
| MrStein | What component creates/names folders in /media ? I need to report (yet another) bug. | 23:08 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: I ain't got that fancy SATA stuff | 23:08 |
| masterfu | well thank you guys for the solutions, i think i'll stick with 8.10 for now untill i get a new laptop with more hard disk space | 23:09 |
| stuff | which other channel, sebsebseb | 23:09 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: done and done | 23:09 |
| erUSUL | jagjr: everything looks ok with you groups | 23:09 |
| t-zOmbie | what's the option to get rid of the splash screen again? quit nosplash? | 23:09 |
| sebsebseb | stuff: #ubuntu+1 is for Karmic | 23:09 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, it's hard to fine PATA hard drives anymore. | 23:09 |
| jagjr | so why cant i access? | 23:09 |
| stuff | okay, sorry | 23:09 |
| masterfu | 40 gb is not much.... | 23:09 |
| paul_s | hi, i am back again, do not know linux, just tried ubuntu friday, a few questions if i may, i like adobe graphics apps and cakewalk in xp, can i find linux apps like that, or do i use wine for those? i only installed updates, wine and xchat so far | 23:09 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, and you know how to add an entry to your /etc/fstab ? | 23:09 |
| erUSUL | jagjr: so i dunno why you can't unlock the user and groups dialog | 23:09 |
| sebsebseb | stuff: also Karmic already has the kernel you want I think | 23:09 |

| timbojimbo | suseflanders: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/291165/ | 23:13 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, you would just add another line in /etc/fstab that reads something like: /dev/disk/by-id/WD-LONGNUMBER-part1 /mnt/backup_storage ext4 noatime 0 0 | 23:13 |
| erUSUL | Raydiation: sorry... tab completion error | 23:13 |
| paul_s | ok thx | 23:13 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: whats the long number? | 23:14 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: rather where do i find that number? | 23:14 |
| erUSUL | !uuid | timbojimbo | 23:14 |
| ubottu | timbojimbo: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 23:14 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, the syntax is: device mount-location file-system-type options dump(keep at 0) fsck(keep at 0 for this one) | 23:14 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, it will be under /dev/disk/by-id | 23:15 |
| erUSUL | timbojimbo: instead of /dev/disk/by-id/WD-LONGNUMBER-part1 just put UUID=the_uuuid_of_the_partition | 23:15 |
| timbojimbo | suseflanders: erUSUL my slave is not appearing on that list... | 23:16 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, /dev/disk/by-id Will list all partitions based on the unique ID number associated to each drive. (This is better than usind /dev/sdb1, and such, since they do not change when you change your drive order, or installed drives) | 23:16 |
| timbojimbo | ok I understand | 23:16 |
| Rising | I had a removable drive in the fat32 format having no problems with it, now i changed it to the ext3 format, and copying files has now become a drama, terribly slow. Anybody can tell me the cause of this? | 23:16 |
| t-zOmbie | paul_s No it's not. It's simply graphics | 23:16 |
| suseflanders | timbojimbo, that's why you sohuld always use it for mounting, and not just /dev/sdb1 /dev/sda2, and so forth | 23:16 |
| erUSUL | timbojimbo: check your « dmesg » maybe there was some error and the disk is not beeing seen... | 23:16 |

| thedude42 | Farrel, try doing a /list command and look through that | 23:48 |
| Farrel | how is that? | 23:49 |
| mom_ | g0tcha, i usually just copy my smb.conf etc | 23:49 |
| Farrel | thedude42 , how can i do it? | 23:49 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: /msg alis list *java* | 23:49 |
| paul_s | well i mean so i can install now? i can always read later on how to use them | 23:49 |
| mom_ | g0tcha, for whatever services im running | 23:50 |
| Farrel | where? | 23:50 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: here | 23:50 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: it's a command that you type into your irc client | 23:50 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: ##java is the primary channel for questions about java | 23:50 |
| Farrel | /msg alis list *java* | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | paul_s: just go to synaptic and install what you want to try out | 23:50 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: no space before the / | 23:50 |
| paul_s | do i pick everything under the 2 i mentioned? or just certian "modules"? | 23:51 |
| g0tcha | mom_, you see, thats why i want to create a full partition and just restore it as a whole instead of going through each .conf file to see what i want to back up | 23:51 |
| g0tcha | and in some cases even forget some heheh | 23:51 |
| nisstyre | !greasemonkey | 23:51 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about greasemonkey | 23:51 |
| Neonexus | is there a channel for usb modems? | 23:51 |
| Farrel | thedude42: after that wht do i do? | 23:51 |
| mom_ | g0tcha, well you must running more services than i do on my server then | 23:52 |
| nisstyre | !ircbot | 23:52 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ircbot | 23:52 |
| erUSUL | paul_s: ubuntustudio is not an app like lmms | 23:52 |
| nisstyre | !irc bot | 23:52 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about irc bot | 23:52 |
| mom_ | g0tcha, i mean there are only a handful of config files for a webserver, email server, smb server | 23:52 |
| paul_s | if i could go out any buy a loaded up (properly) linux box , i would | 23:53 |
| paul_s | i have to do it myself | 23:53 |
| paul_s | very discouraging | 23:53 |
| mom_ | g0tcha, and going through /etc helps you know whats going on anyway | 23:53 |
| thedude42 | Farrel, the /list command lists all the channels on the server, you look through that list for the channel that has what you want | 23:53 |
| Farrel | -alis-#javahelp | 23:53 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: that;s not right | 23:53 |

| Farrel | so i type ##java | 23:54 |
| paul_s | as a matter of fact i am hopeless without you guys | 23:54 |
| Farrel | where? | 23:54 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: no | 23:54 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: /join ##java | 23:54 |
| paul_s | i am going to try that | 23:54 |
| lstarnes | Farrel: you type irc commands in the same box that you type everything else in | 23:54 |
| Crucible | I Have Ubuntu 9.04 and would like to convert some AVI to MPEG...... Could someone advise me what program i can use for this please????? | 23:54 |
| Farrel | okay victory:D:D thnks dudeee(K))(K) | 23:54 |
| mom_ | but still even if you didnt care . . . you could do full backup of /home, /etc, if you are sentimental /var/log . . . that would be most everything i could think of on a fresh install | 23:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | Factran, Nautilus / Edit - Preferences / Media tab | 23:55 |
| paul_s | what is lmms common, dev and vst? do i need those? | 23:55 |
| erUSUL | Crucible: winff | 23:55 |
| paul_s | its worse when i look at ubuntustudio | 23:55 |
| Factran | hmm, i don't have nautilus | 23:55 |
| Factran | i'm searching for the command line, is any, ZykoticK9 | 23:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | Factran, sorry just say your lxde note - i've not thing | 23:55 |
| erUSUL | paul_s: probably when you install just lmms the others will get pulled in as dependencies | 23:55 |
| paul_s | i need some pointers on what to check off | 23:55 |
| Crucible | winff is available in synaptic? | 23:55 |
| paul_s | ok | 23:55 |
| paul_s | common got marked | 23:56 |
| erUSUL | paul_s: Probalby is better that you use Aplications>Add/Remove | 23:56 |
| Factran | thanks anyway, ZykoticK9 | 23:56 |
| zodling | anyone have any luck with the iscsi install stuff in 9.10 ? | 23:56 |
| paul_s | oh, ok, i never looked there | 23:56 |
| snoggleby | How can I determine if Ubuntu is recognizing my video card's S-Video output? | 23:56 |
| mom_ | has anyone tried karmic koala? i was wondering if the boot time significantly improved | 23:57 |
| erUSUL | mom_: ask in #ubuntu+1 | 23:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | mom_, slightly (judging from VMs only) | 23:57 |
| Neonexus | yes mom, it has on my machine | 23:58 |
| mom_ | ZykoticK9, ok thanks, the founder of identi.ca said there wasnt really an improvement on FLOSS weekly | 23:58 |
| === macOut is now known as mac9416 | ||
| Farrel | no one is the channel:S:S dude help | 23:58 |
| Neonexus | however, still having problems with grub | 23:58 |
| n8tuser | snoggleby-> try sudo dmidecode | 23:58 |
| Neonexus | its pretty stable now | 23:59 |
| paul_s | erusul they are not in Aplications>Add/Remove | 23:59 |
| erUSUL | paul_s: what lmms ? | 23:59 |
| fbianconi | paul_s: common packages are used to store data in the repos for all arquitectures, dev packages usually have developement files (you don't need those except if you're a programmer) and vst is a type of plugin for lmms, it adds some little compatibility with software like fruity loops for windows | 23:59 |
| snoggleby | n8tuser: nah, that's only displaying information about my bios/mobo/cpu | 23:59 |
