| fccf | nicklas_: if you are talking about upgrading to Karmic ... Please wait 2 more weeks before upgrading ... Karmic will be released on 10/29/09 -- FANFARE ... you can upgrade every 6 months, if you want, or you can wait (like I do) for Long Term Support version (IMHO they seem to work better) | 00:01 |
| Rumo | WanHouse: should i post? | 00:01 |

| The_Doctor | new-user you will get much faster downloads through using torrent especially when it is first released. | 00:09 |
| joseantoniordlmc | fccf very gentle of your part | 00:09 |
| not-so-new-user | The_Doctor, torrents can be slower.. but you can pause/stop/resume them.. handy for large d/ls | 00:10 |
| winterswift | reuben: have you tried using the terminal to update? | 00:10 |
| not-so-new-user | is that also true | 00:10 |

| reuben | karmic??? | 00:25 |
| themhz | this is sick!! :D | 00:25 |
| fccf | fabiotheg8: you are talking about an un-supported application, and you really should be reading the Adobe Air Developers guide, not asking offtopic questions in #ubuntu, as #ubuntu is for Ubuntu Related support and NOT ADOBE PRODUCTS | 00:25 |
| winterswift | reuben: 9.10 or 9.04? | 00:25 |
| fabiotheg8 | if i put adobe on ubuntu is that not ubuntu releated? | 00:27 |
| winterswift | fabiotheg8: maybe try ##air | 00:27 |
| The_Doctor | fabiotheg8 you cannot put it in Ubuntu. It will not install. | 00:27 |
| infidel2s | can i run a font made for Microsoft visual studio on ubuntu? | 00:28 |
| fabiotheg8 | The_Doctor, yes it will, and i have it installed | 00:28 |
| The_Doctor | fabiotheg8 does it run? | 00:28 |
| fccf | fabiotheg8: #air would be alot better place to ask questions... remember Air is a web-development framework, you technically don't run the apps, they get "pushed" to you from a server | 00:28 |
| one | infidel2s: try to install virtualbox or vmware and install windows on it then install microsoft visual studio | 00:29 |
| fabiotheg8 | I don't know i can't figure out how to run that apps | 00:29 |
| infidel2s | one i'm using ubuntu as a virtualbox guest os | 00:29 |
| DigitalKiwi | someone had air working in the other linux channel i frequent so I know it can run on linux | 00:29 |
| infidel2s | one i'm not trying to use visual studio. i just want the font | 00:29 |
| one | ok im sorry | 00:29 |
| The_Doctor | fabiotheg8 then it probably is not installed. You could type the name in a terminal or search your software but probably neither will work. | 00:29 |

| winterswift | reuben: is your problem similar to this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1186289 | 00:32 |
| one | new-user im sorry i dont have a clue | 00:32 |
| The_Doctor | fabiotheg8 then click on the icon and run it. You probably don't have an icon so it is not "really" installed. Type the name in the terminal -- that should make it start -- I'll bet that it doesn't. | 00:33 |

| Yossi | i want to use the font from the terminal in visual studio | 00:54 |
| leaf-sheep | I'm using 730_MB out of 3_GB. That's more than enough. :( | 00:54 |
| obiwan_ | well, t2l for me, see you tomorrow, many chanks Arezura ! have a good day/night whatever ehhe | 00:54 |
| foofish | Yossi: right-click the terminal, edit profile, click around and you'll find the font | 00:54 |
| vox | U-b-u-n-t-u: it's nothing to do with the browser | 00:54 |
| Yossi | its called Monospace | 00:54 |
| wickedJoe | hey what's a good filesharing thing that would work like limewire bu for ubuntu? | 00:54 |
| vox | U-b-u-n-t-u: linux uses ram in a different way to windows | 00:54 |
| foofish | Yossi: good stuff | 00:54 |
| Arezura | actually on my MBP c2d the first c2d the wifi would drop ever 10 to 1 sec with the restriceted driver. | 00:54 |
| Yossi | but i dunno how to get a font file from a name | 00:55 |
| Arezura | s/1/15/ | 00:55 |
| FluxD | Is there any firewall that works like this ? http://i.iimmgg.com/images/gr/d1f60ec747acbbdcdeb771cb5701f7b0.jpg | 00:55 |
| leaf-sheep | !limewire | wickedJoe | 00:55 |
| ubottu | wickedJoe: limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !Java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative. | 00:55 |
| foofish | Yossi: hm, neither do i | 00:55 |
| foofish | Yossi: it | 00:55 |
| hdon | wickedJoe: you could try giftd | 00:55 |
| leaf-sheep | !frostwire | wickedJoe | 00:55 |
| ubottu | wickedJoe: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire. For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire | 00:55 |
| wickedJoe | thanks! I'll check it out | 00:55 |
| === jay is now known as Guest32943 | ||
| hdon | wickedJoe: i wouldn't trust limewire. the windows installers my friends always use to get limewire always contain malware. | 00:56 |
| === fluid_ is now known as fluid | ||
| wickedJoe | Wait is frostwire in a repository? | 00:56 |
| hdon | wickedJoe: but at the same time, it's hard to imagine malware getting into an ubuntu app | 00:56 |
| leaf-sheep | FluxD: Firestarter came to my mind -- but yeah, you don't need it in first place. | 00:56 |
| vox | U-b-u-n-t-u: if you run 'top' from a shell while you have opera/firefox open, you'll see that the majority of your ram is being used as 'cache' | 00:56 |
| Yossi | foofish, it seems that older versions let you go to fonts:/// in nautilus and get the fonts, but now that wont work | 00:56 |
| leaf-sheep | !firewall | FluxD | 00:56 |
| ubottu | FluxD: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 00:56 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | vox oh? | 00:56 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | vox I didnt know that | 00:56 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | vox so its normal? | 00:56 |
| hdon | wickedJoe: seems there's no package named frostwire in jaunty | 00:56 |
| FluxD | leaf-sheep, I am trying to stop the connection before it connects | 00:57 |
| vox | U-b-u-n-t-u: completely | 00:57 |
| hdon | wickedJoe: you could also try gtk-gnutella, however | 00:57 |
| foofish | Yossi: it may be DejaVu Sans Mono | 00:57 |
| foofish | Yossi: but that is a guess. | 00:57 |
| wickedJoe | ok I'll try the gnutella first | 00:57 |
| WanHouse | FluxD: Firestarter is a very good firewall. | 00:57 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | ok vox so high levels of cache are normal and I shouldnt be concerned its not a hardware issue or software just the way ubuntu uses cache | 00:58 |
| WanHouse | U-b-u-n-t-u: Right. | 00:58 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | aha! | 00:58 |
| vox | U-b-u-n-t-u: exactly. it's not just ubuntu, it's the way every form of linux works | 00:58 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | reinstalling firefox =_= | 00:58 |
| Yossi | you might be right | 00:58 |
| vox | U-b-u-n-t-u: think of it as "well, nothing else needs it right now, so i'm going to use it to make everything faster" | 00:59 |
| WanHouse | U-b-u-n-t-u: "Free" + "Cache" is your total free. | 00:59 |
| WanHouse | U-b-u-n-t-u: Its a Release-On-Request Cache | 01:00 |
| SodaPhish_ | ? | 01:00 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | right now with xchat and pidgin ram is at 23% and cache 13% but if I open firefox and surf the ram shoots up to like 50%-70% cache like 98% | 01:00 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | I should mention I am using 64 bit | 01:00 |
| vox | U-b-u-n-t-u: thats normal. pidgin and x-chat aren't programs that require "room to move" so to speak | 01:01 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | vox ok | 01:01 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | well thats good news then! | 01:01 |

| alteregod | what happens to ubuntu on a gamma ray burst? | 01:13 |
| vince | Good Evening Everyone, I was wondering if someone could help me with a Pulse Audio question I had. For some reason ever since the other day I have been fighting with sound working properly on my laptop. Whenever there is sound played all I get is static. I did not install anything that or make any changes that I am aware of to cause this issue. | 01:13 |
| mikegerwitz | inxs: actually, who lists more than just a username. You can try something like `who | grep -o ^[a-z]\+` to list only the usernames..I'm not sure if there's a flag to do that for you | 01:14 |
| alteregod | vince: you use realtek soundchip? | 01:14 |
| Factran | spO : to make short : the answer should be : xorg.conf. | 01:14 |
| alteregod | vince offer, are you there? | 01:15 |
| girlsname | Does anyone in here know of a problem/solution in regards to Mini 10v's having stuttering audio while running any sort of game? | 01:15 |
| Factran | spO, are you there ? | 01:15 |
| vince | altergod: Not sure if I do or not | 01:15 |
| vince | altergod its a Acer Aspire 5315 | 01:15 |
| alteregod | yeah they use realcrap soundchips ac97 | 01:15 |
| vince | altergod: Not going to argue that, but it worked fine until recently | 01:16 |
| vince | and still works fine under Win 7 | 01:16 |
| vince | Someone suggested I run "sudo alsa force-reload" which brings sound back for some applications for a little while | 01:17 |
| hsarci | anyone in here running a thinkpad? | 01:17 |
| alteregod | yeah, try that | 01:17 |
| vince | altergod: I did and agian it makes some apps work fine for a little while before they quit agian after an hour or so | 01:17 |

| thedude42 | StraightDave, right, I assumed that, but you were just needing to know how to configure your multiple IP's on the one interface, correct? | 01:22 |
| n8tuser | Take0n-> wrong perms | 01:22 |
| alteregod | you need to add ip aliases | 01:23 |
| StraightDave | thedude42: yes. so put the new site on the new ip | 01:23 |
| StraightDave | alteregod: how to add ip aliases ? | 01:23 |
| spO | what is the name of xwin i,t is not xwin | 01:23 |
| tripps | n8tuser, no I mean the system died with dead battery, then upon next startup prompted a needed manual fsck (where it goes to maintenance command shell). after endless inodes were cleared, etc., the system now no longer suspends or hibernates at all | 01:23 |
| alteregod | with ifconfig afaik, so you can point various ips to a single NIC | 01:23 |
| Take0n | n8tuser, I am using the gui to create new user. There is the root and there is me (Antonis) there are no more users.. would it be easier to use a command? I tried with a command but got the same error | 01:23 |

| tripps | mneptok, is there a command line or process spelling that out? is another option to do a distribution upgrade? | 01:39 |
| mneptok | trik: yes. i'm using one now | 01:39 |
| trik | anything special i need to do? | 01:39 |
| KimBurton | mikegerwitz, i have a dell inspiron 1521 | 01:39 |
| mneptok | Sagaci: not true | 01:39 |
| mneptok | tripps: dist-upgrade does NOT get you the next version | 01:39 |
| imau | Hi, i just install 9.10, everything was fine until i installed the nvidia driver, my laptop has a nvidia 8400 go. Is this a knowed issue ?? | 01:39 |
| mneptok | tripps: common misconception | 01:39 |
| Fezzler | DMZ madness. wireless passthrough to VPN works. But wired port on same router doesn't???? | 01:39 |
| mikegerwitz | KimBurton: unfortunately, I won't be able to help with any hardware; I just know that certain harware does work. You may have to look up your hardware and see if it's supported | 01:40 |

| vince | I was wondering if someone could help me with a Pulse Audio question I had. For some reason ever since the other day I have been fighting with sound working properly on my laptop. Whenever there is sound played all I get is static. I did not install anything that or make any changes | 01:41 |
| tripps | mneptok, ie use the update manager to upgrade to 9.04 | 01:41 |
| mneptok | trik: this is not a Mint support channel. | 01:42 |
| mneptok | tripps: gksu update-manager -c | 01:42 |

| TimReichhart | could anybody tell me how much space ubuntu server takes up on hard drive? | 01:43 |
| tripps | mneptok, do you think that would work? | 01:43 |
| vox | TimReichhart: that depends on what you install with it | 01:43 |
| tripps | mneptok, i.e., restore my corrupt/missing files, etc.? | 01:43 |
| TimReichhart | just LAMP | 01:43 |
| mneptok | tripps: i'd do a clean re-install from optical media | 01:44 |
| vox | TimReichhart: i wouldnt think any more than 7-800mb | 01:44 |
| TimReichhart | vox thanks | 01:44 |
| tripps | mneptok, well it's worth a shot, right? | 01:44 |
| TimReichhart | join #ubuntu-server | 01:44 |
| mneptok | tripps: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/komputes/HowToUbuquityPreserveHome | 01:44 |
| vox | TimReichhart: server doesnt have any X-related packages, so it's going to be significantly less than a desktop install | 01:45 |

| mikegerwitz | Tehedra: dpkg --get-selections | grep php-cli, or just type sudo apt-get install php-cli and it'll tell you | 01:54 |
| mikegerwitz | but I believe it's php-cgi, not cli | 01:55 |
| LinuX2half | is it possible to change GRUB to MSDOS? | 01:56 |
| mikegerwitz | Tehedra: Ah, excuse me. It's php5-cli, or php5-cgi | 01:56 |

| grturner | Dayspring, have you tried sudo apt-get autoremove audacious ? | 02:07 |
| mow | m0r0n > maybe your dns is the problem | 02:07 |
| mow | try like 4.2.2.1 | 02:08 |
| m0r0n | mow: How would I fix that? | 02:08 |
| m0r0n | mow: What do you mean by try 4.2.2.1 | 02:08 |
| Dayspring | i have tried all the remove codes.....it removed audacious from an older install....still have audacious 2.2 | 02:08 |

| neil_d | I have a problem when I reboot my computer with a scanner attached (via usb) the permissions are not correct for /dev/bus/usb/003/002 they are rw-rw-r-- :( what I need is rw-rw-rw- there is a rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/60_iscan.rules -- SYSFS{idVendor}=="04b8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="083f", MODE="0666" which matches my scanner! what is wrong? | 02:09 |
| grturner | Dayspring, did you compile audacious and install it? | 02:09 |
| mow | m0r0n > add it to your /etc/resolv.conf | 02:09 |
| === girlsname is now known as gn-away | ||
| m0r0n | mow: I'm lost, add what to that? | 02:10 |
| Dayspring | i downloaded the tar from their site and did the /.configure and make and sudo make install | 02:10 |
| mow | m0r0n > sometimes dns lookup don't work right | 02:10 |
| TuxOtaku | any idea why I'd get a boot error after dding the UNR image to a usb stick? | 02:10 |
| m0r0n | mow: 4.2.2.1 What do I do with that number, is it a program I'm so lost. | 02:11 |
| grturner | Dayspring, you will have to remove the binary file that it installed, and if you're really into it, you could track down all the files and remove them | 02:11 |
| grturner | thats why it's reccomended to use some sort of package manager | 02:12 |
| mow | m0r0n > it's a dns server, you need to add that to your /etc/resolv.conf file | 02:12 |
| m0r0n | mow: So just make a new line with those numbers? | 02:12 |
| Dayspring | how would i remove the binary files? | 02:12 |
| mow | m0r0n > add the line nameserver 4.2.2.1 above the ones there | 02:13 |
| mow | then restart the network | 02:13 |
| mow | see if it helps | 02:13 |

| m0r0n | WanHouse: What? | 02:14 |
| WanHouse | Axothar. | 02:14 |
| grturner | Dayspring, whereis audacious should show you where the binary executable is | 02:15 |
| Dayspring | do i type that it the terminal? | 02:15 |
| cotigao | Dayspring, wheres the binary executanle located? | 02:15 |

| LinuX2half | oorah: its a CD-R but whenever I insert the disc Ubuntu read it as an blank cd-r | 02:29 |
| Dream-Ubu | Omette, thanks i'll look | 02:29 |
| Omlette | Whiper, I backed up an ntfs partition with it, but I haven't tried fat16 or -32. However, I believe it will work. | 02:29 |
| oorah | LinuX2half, oh ok so your disc drive is detected thats good | 02:29 |
| lakotajames1 | how do I make terminator transparent? | 02:29 |
| Omlette | Whiper, the website is www.partimage.org | 02:29 |
| oorah | LinuX2half, maybe there is a button you have to press at startup. it will usually tell which one at the bottom of the screen | 02:30 |
| Random832 | wow, does anyone remember XFree86? | 02:30 |
| a_ | !help | 02:30 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 02:30 |
| Random832 | I mean, I guess it's still around technically | 02:30 |
| LinuX2half | oorah: well I don't see no option from my BIOS startup screen | 02:31 |
| Random832 | a_: you talking to me? i was just making conversation | 02:31 |
| Random832 | i'll go to -offtopic i guess | 02:31 |
| Dayspring | alright!! i got it fixed....thanks a ton guys | 02:31 |
| a_ | Random832: no, I just made a mistake | 02:31 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: you should be looking for boot order, or boot devices, or something like that. | 02:31 |
| StraightDave | hi folks, i just got a new ip for my server. when i try connecting to it via http it times out. i have setup teh virtual host and everything correctly and restarted apache. | 02:31 |
| oorah | LinuX2half, i'm out of ideas. its usually a function button, maybe you should try repeatedly pressing one of them until one maybe works | 02:31 |
| Random832 | how do i make xchat look normal | 02:32 |
| oorah | LinuX2half, what kind of computer do you have? | 02:32 |
| Dayspring | now, does anyone have any ideas of what i should do to get audacious 2.1 to work on my computer?? | 02:32 |
| LinuX2half | oorah: sony | 02:32 |
| Random832 | like with the user list on the right and the buttons and tabs | 02:32 |
| StraightDave | how do you edit the firewall in ubuntu to allow teh new ip to work ? | 02:32 |
| oorah | LinuX2half, oh sorry i wouldn't know then. i have an msi. perhaps you can call sony about it or check their website or google it | 02:33 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: oh? Then how do I found out what boot device I had? | 02:33 |
| oorah | is there a way to track down the default appearance settings of jaunty so i can apply it to beta? if not can someone with jaunty look for me please? | 02:33 |
| LinuX2half | oorah: thanks anyway | 02:34 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: did you actually get to the bios screen? did you ever get to a menu that opens before windows starts? | 02:34 |
| Dream-Ubu | *raises hand* im not completly lost...i'm going to use the incorrect term...ive removed the rules of my partisions, grub gives me error 22, i tried to resize my linux partition but i wiped the lot meaning the data is there but the thing that sets them isnt...what do i do? and i'm in need of a step by step | 02:34 |
| Dream-Ubu | i am lost...not im not lost... | 02:34 |
| oorah | is there a way to install default themes of previous versions of Ubuntu? | 02:35 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: yes I press F2 to go to the Setup Screen...but my bios had little power over my comptuer........ | 02:35 |
| IdleOne | oorah: the default theme in Jaunty is the Human theme. not sure what else you want to know | 02:35 |
| StraightDave | when i go to http://domaintoip.com, and type my new domain, it points to the correct new ip. however http://newip will connection time out | 02:35 |
| oorah | IdleOne, the colors | 02:35 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: are there any more menus than the first one? | 02:35 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: like, is there more than one tab? | 02:36 |
| IdleOne | oorah: will a screenshot do? | 02:36 |
| leaf-sheep | What sources are enabled by default? main and restricted? universe and multiverse is optional? | 02:36 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: if you've deleted the partitions, it's basicly impossible to get the data back again | 02:36 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: yes more than one tab listing security, boot, general ...etc | 02:36 |
| oorah | IdleOne, i meant the numbers i need to input | 02:36 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: time to start again from scratch | 02:36 |

| |m0r0n | mow: Sorry for the long reply, no it's not | 02:36 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox, removed the rules..not deleted as in kicked the data out the window | 02:36 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: what do you mean "removed the rules" | 02:37 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: what are your choices under boot? | 02:37 |
| IdleOne | oorah: ok gimme a minute and I'll get them for you | 02:37 |
| oorah | IdleOne, oh ok thanks | 02:37 |
| mow | |m0r0n > for a simple test use the ip in your browser, not the .com name and see if it's faster | 02:37 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: Optical Drive, Floppy Disk, Hard Disk, Network | 02:37 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: the code that says what size each is | 02:37 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: you need to make Optical Drive boot first. | 02:37 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: erm...OH! fill a split glass with liquid, and remove the splitter... | 02:38 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: that kind of thing... | 02:38 |
| mow | |m0r0n > ie.. www.goog.com use 212.227.93.146 | 02:38 |

| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: Yes its in default order with the optical drive input first | 02:39 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: you've removed the partitions | 02:39 |
| oorah | IdleOne, oh ok thanks | 02:39 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: yes but the data is there, grub shows so i know it is | 02:39 |
| FMsoundmaster45 | how to change group membership of a file? | 02:39 |
| IdleOne | oorah: hope that helps | 02:39 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: if that is first, the disk should boot. are you sure you burned the iso correctly? | 02:39 |
| losha | Dream-Ubu: if by 'rules' you mean the partition table, saying where each partition started and ended oon the disk, it may be possible to recreate the table, and access the data again, if you know the *exact* details of your partition | 02:39 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: grub sits in the Master Boot Record. what does it say when it tries to boot? | 02:40 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: error 22 | 02:40 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: it worked in my other dell computer | 02:40 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: hmm. are you sure that there isn't some sort of option you have to enable on the optical drive setting in the bios? | 02:41 |
| Dream-Ubu | losha: i have a rough idea, 30gb to ubuntu a bit to linux swap(ubuntu default) how ever much grub gives itself by default and 90gb to windows... | 02:41 |
| maxxist | omg the past couple of days with 9.10 beta have been horrible. but i am up and running again. Can someone tell me how to get my scroll wheel on my mouse to flip my desktop again? for some reason its not working anymore. I can still go to the cube mode. but i think the shortcut is missing, and I dont know where to find it. I installed compiz-settings-manager again.... | 02:41 |
| Dream-Ubu | losha: i know ubuntu was 30gb...ive reinstalled it twice, same amount both times | 02:41 |
| KiRiLoS | !karmic | maxxist | 02:41 |
| ubottu | maxxist: 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 | 02:41 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: well the options are disable or enable device.... | 02:42 |
| IdleOne | maxxist: you want #compiz for that | 02:42 |
| losha | Dream-Ubu: I doubt a 'rough idea' will be sufficient. But check out testdisk http://www.linux.com/news/enterprise/storage/8257-how-to-recover-lost-files-after-you-accidentally-wipe-your-hard-drive | 02:42 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: is it enabled? | 02:42 |
| maxxist | KiRiLoS, i know its beta. I knew it might break. but its working fine now. | 02:42 |
| Dream-Ubu | i tried testdisk, it wouldnt do anything cos i had no clue what to do | 02:42 |
| reuben | wheres the file where u can edit what comes up at startup | 02:42 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: you've deleted part of the hard-drive structure. it's not really recoverable from what you've done. | 02:42 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: yes it is, if it's not that there's a proclamation point.... | 02:43 |
| KiRiLoS | maxxist, what i meant is that you may need to ask that question @ #ubuntu+1 and not here | 02:43 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: proclamation point? | 02:43 |
| IdleOne | ! | 02:43 |
| |m0r0n | mow: goog.com is taking about 10-15 seconds to load a search result | 02:43 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: perfect :) i am screwed basicly, right? unless i work out the exact sizes | 02:43 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: if the device is disabled.... | 02:43 |
| maxxist | KiRiLoS, on it thanx. | 02:44 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: Oh! ok. sorry, I had misunderstood you. :p | 02:44 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: maybe I need to boot the CD without restarting... | 02:44 |
| mow | |m0r0n > did you use the .com name? | 02:44 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: I have no idea. I've told you every thing I know :p | 02:44 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: not just exact size, but you'd need to put the partition back in the /exact/ same physical space on the drive. | 02:44 |
| IdleOne | LinuX2half: is this the official windows cd you are trying to boot from? | 02:45 |
| |m0r0n | mow: Not sure, I just typed in that IP and got sent to that site | 02:45 |
| greensimian | Hey gang | 02:45 |
| LinuX2half | idleone: its an copy | 02:45 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: oh, are you sure that the drive works? | 02:45 |
| mow | |m0r0n > was that faster? | 02:45 |
| greensimian | I am new 2 ubuntu.....do I need to defrag my ext3 drive? | 02:45 |
| LinuX2half | ldleone: an copy | 02:45 |
| IdleOne | greensimian: nope | 02:45 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: if you're going to try and re-size your drives, use "gparted" to do it. | 02:45 |
| grturner | no need to defrag | 02:45 |
| lakotajames1 | greensimian: no :) | 02:45 |
| maxxist | greensimian, nope it does it on its own. | 02:45 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: erm, grub-windows-ubuntu-swap < like that? | 02:45 |
| greensimian | Like magic | 02:46 |
| |m0r0n | mow: Google itself searches faster, but when I go to click on a link it's slow right away | 02:46 |
| greensimian | They say you don't need to defrag NTFS either but that's a load of hooey | 02:46 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: i have no idea how your drive was set up previously. | 02:46 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: that was the order there where shown when ii went to expand ubuntu but i wiped the table, its now blank unalocated space | 02:46 |
| mow | |m0r0n > right, because it has to query the dns server again | 02:46 |
| reuben | whats the file i edit for startup services ?????????????????????? | 02:46 |
| IdleOne | greensimian: that is correct | 02:46 |
| losha | Dream-Ubu: if you had made a copy of the partition table, and made no changes after deleting it, you could probably get your data back. But if testdisk won't recover it, I don't know what else to do... | 02:46 |
| FMsoundmaster45 | i did add group xxxx in Admin->Users and groups. Then i did: chown :xxxx file . but ig get group not valid? | 02:46 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: Great Question, the Lice CD works when I was in the GRUB process of selecting a partition or maybe RAM converting part......I just press F12 | 02:46 |
| Deaglebear | sebsebseb: i need to get this to work for a match i have tonight i have instructions on how to do it normally but its when i try to do it all through console i get hung up | 02:46 |
| mow | |m0r0n > sounds like dns problem | 02:46 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: then it's completely hosed. start again. | 02:46 |
| |m0r0n | mow: Is there any auto-repair that I can try or what should I do next? | 02:47 |
| |m0r0n | mow: Primary DNS 192.168.1.1 (My router) | 02:47 |
| mow | |m0r0n > edit your /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf with pico or vi | 02:47 |

| mow | |m0r0n > add this line to the end of the file | 02:47 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: I'm not sure if the Drive is working properly..though | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | Deaglebear: I already replied to you earlier, and said that I didn't know | 02:48 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: and in doing tat my data will be lost so, is there no way i can put another grid with the same sizes? like you would a piece of tracing paper over a picutre? (sorry about the explinations after but it seems to make sense) | 02:48 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: you might steal a drive from your other compy, if you have one. | 02:48 |
| mow | |m0r0n > prepend domain-name-servers 4.2.2.1,4.2.2.2; | 02:48 |
| reuben | whats the file i edit for startup services ?????????????????????? | 02:48 |
| joebodo | FMsoundmaster45, i believe you want to use the chgrp command - not chown | 02:48 |
| |m0r0n | mow: Anywhere speific or? | 02:48 |
| mow | |m0r0n > then restart the network or reboot | 02:48 |

| Deaglebear | o | 02:49 |
| mow | |m0r0n > that will add those ip's to your /etc/resolv.conf when network restarts | 02:49 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: i understand what you mean, but without knowing the EXACT location and size of every partition, and knowing exactly where(physically) on the disk those paritions resided, it is impossible | 02:49 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: any data that was on that drive is now essentially lost | 02:51 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: i remember where they where but how do i do it? [windows recovery HD0,0 win xp hd0,1 ubuntu hd0,4 (ubuntu recovery not a clue) | 02:51 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: no, you remember the /order/ they were in | 02:51 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: and the sizes i remember | 02:51 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: but physicaly on the disk if i could touch them, no i dont | 02:51 |
| matelot | Q: anyway to make Jaunty beep a sound when USB inserted ? like Windows | 02:51 |
| tute | hola | 02:52 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: the could you describe the procedures of how the CD interact with the computer.....? | 02:52 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: I don't know what you mean, sorry :( | 02:53 |
| tute | this is a just english chat ? | 02:53 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: thats my point. disk partitions are the linch-pin of a hard drive. if they are disrupted or changed in any way, without knowing EXACTLY what you're doing, the entire drive is hosed | 02:53 |
| oorah | IdleOne, is there any way to change the scroll bar that moves vertical to the right of the open windows to orange? | 02:53 |
| IdleOne | tute: yes. for spanish #ubuntu-es | 02:53 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: ok, i get it now | 02:53 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: Like when you insert the CD and reboots, whats happening "inside".... | 02:53 |
| losha | Dream-Ubu: despite what you may think, hard drives aren't really like tracing paper... | 02:53 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: i've been a linux sysadmin for nearly 10 years, and stay very, very, very far away from changing partition sizes | 02:53 |
| tute | ok, | 02:53 |
| IdleOne | oorah: I would'nt know. | 02:53 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: *salutes* ok sir | 02:54 |
| oorah | IdleOne, its ok thanks, i can deal with the gray bar lol | 02:54 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: the computer should boot from the cd instead of the harddrive. | 02:54 |
| Phil_ | hi | 02:54 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: all it takes is for one tiny, little, minute thing to not be exactly right, and you lose all your data | 02:54 |
| Dream-Ubu | loha: it was an analergy, i was referencing the "rules" as i call them... | 02:54 |
| FMsoundmaster45 | "joebodo: thanks | 02:54 |
| oorah | i wish i knew if there was a way to change the color of the vertical scroll bar to the right of open window boxes | 02:54 |
| aaronslife | how can I install the nVidia display drivers and reconfigure the display configuration for gnome so my xorg works? | 02:54 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: I'm trying to ask do you know whats happening at the "inside", which means for example the CD load the data and turn to RAM..etc, | 02:55 |
| Dream-Ubu | losha: i was thinking it was a grid, you slot it back over problem solved, like a map | 02:55 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: like in technical phases... | 02:55 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: oh, I don't know. sorry. :( | 02:55 |

| joebodo | oorah, try gnome-color-chooser | 02:56 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: of course | 02:56 |
| mow | m0r0n > cat /etc/resolv.conf ... are the ips there | 02:56 |
| oorah | joebodo, is it an app? | 02:56 |
| LinuX2half | lakotajames1: One last question, whats the difference between an OEM disk and an installation disk? | 02:56 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: woo! my crazyness can be useful...now...wheres my harddrive lab... | 02:56 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: your idea is, essentially, correct. however, you need about 10-times more detail in your tracing paper in order to do it | 02:56 |
| joebodo | oorah, yes - it is for changing specific parts of the UI | 02:57 |
| oorah | joebodo, ok thanks installing now | 02:57 |
| oorah | joebodo, is it gui? | 02:57 |
| joebodo | oorah, yup | 02:57 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: lol, i can remember the sizes and the order they showed in gparted and the order they where listed in grub but... | 02:57 |
| joebodo | oorah, it's pretty nice actually | 02:57 |
| oorah | joebodo, where is it saved at? | 02:57 |
| gslauen | anyone familiar with setting up second lirc as ledxmit? I am having a problem compiling it | 02:57 |

| melherndon | Can someone tell me if there is an open source option for something like camtasia studio for windows that allows audio, and video capture for creating presentations/training? | 02:58 |
| oorah | joebodo, oh ok thanks | 02:58 |
| Dream-Ubu | vox: including the HD0,X but you're saying that makes no difference... unless i know that its like...2 cm in from the center | 02:58 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: install disks install the clean version of the operating system. OEM disks install Dell's version, for example. Has Dell branding. I think it will only work on the computer it came with, not sure though. | 02:58 |

| guest2 | any help ? | 03:00 |
| vox | Dream-Ubu: what's required to put the partitions back exactly how they were would be akin to kicking a sandcastle, then trying to put each grain of sand back where it was to re-make the castle. | 03:00 |
| m0r0n | guest2: When you go all the way to the bottom it's not there? | 03:00 |
| mow | m0r0n > sorry that was my best idea why it was slow... other then maybe your isp provider is having problems | 03:00 |
| lakotajames1 | LinuX2half: the OEM will have branding, and the drivers for the computer it came with. I think... You might look that up too, I'm not sure. | 03:00 |
| oorah | joebodo, which selection is for the scroll bar? | 03:00 |
| mow | m0r0n > try pinging some sites | 03:00 |

| Wolfcastle | hello ppl | 03:39 |
| coolcat | gbear14275, sun's java didn't work ... | 03:39 |
| hdon | oh man, it's been a long time since i heard the term "download manager" | 03:39 |
| joebodo | shane2peru, not sure if any of these help - but there's like 5 options : http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-bypassing-fsck/ | 03:40 |
| DaZ | aaroninfidel: nano | 03:40 |
| losha | aaroninfidel: sadly, there seem to be no good tools for that. Or even mediocre ones... | 03:40 |

| shane2peru | joebodo: yeah, looking over it now, thanks for the link | 03:41 |
| prince_jammys | aaroninfidel: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg reconfigures the xorg package. Your /etc/X11/xorg.conf is backed up with a different extension, and then overwritten. | 03:41 |
| Wolfcastle | hi I have a problem getting the realplayer plugin to work with firefox 3.5 in jaunty | 03:41 |
| Wolfcastle | I installed realplayer and checked to configure the plugin | 03:41 |
| Wolfcastle | but it doesn't appear in about:config | 03:42 |
| DaZ | Wolfcastle: why do you need it? >: | 03:42 |
| Wolfcastle | DaZ: to listen to an online radio | 03:42 |
| gues1 | can someone please paste me the link to how to recover my operating system choices on system BOOT | 03:42 |
| gues1 | have reinstalled my XP | 03:42 |
| DaZ | Wolfcastle: and mplayer plugin can't do it? :f | 03:42 |
| joebodo | !grub | gues1 | 03:42 |
| ubottu | gues1: 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 | 03:42 |
| gues1 | Thanks! | 03:42 |
| Wolfcastle | DaZ: haven't tried it. | 03:43 |
| aaroninfidel | where is the xOrg error log stored? | 03:44 |
| DaZ | Wolfcastle: your linux will be happy. | 03:44 |
| DaZ | aaroninfidel: /var/log | 03:44 |
| LaireTM | How I can test my W-Lan connection? Ubuntu shows me that I am connect but i have no access to the Internet | 03:44 |
| shane2peru | joebodo: hmm, it didn't seem to care much about fastbook, thanks for the help though. I will look at it later | 03:44 |
| Wolfcastle | yes the mplayer plugin works well | 03:46 |
| Rosey | Hello there. I am trying to get NNS and mIRC working with wine. everything worked....now when I try to open up NNS, I only get mIRC, no NNS. I hope someone out there can help me ? | 03:46 |
| Wolfcastle | still it annoys me not to be able to get realplayer to work as a plugin | 03:46 |
| Wolfcastle | anyone knows which directory is scanned for plugins by firefox? | 03:46 |
| joebodo | realplayer not installing is a good thing | 03:46 |
| Wolfcastle | joebodo: why is that? | 03:46 |
| joebodo | Wolfcastle, it's not known for being very good - also usually likes to install spyware type of stuff (at least in windows) | 03:47 |
| Wolfcastle | hmm i see | 03:47 |
| DaZ | Rosey: you don't need mIRC | 03:47 |
| Wolfcastle | ok I'll stick to the mplayer plugin then | 03:47 |
| Tehedra | hey | 03:47 |
| * DaZ does jedi hand trick | 03:47 | |
| Tehedra | I have a folder, that i use for including php code into another php script | 03:48 |
| Rosey | i see.... | 03:48 |
| aaroninfidel | DaZ, everytime I restart I get a xOrg error saying my config isn't setup properly. how can I set it up with my nVidia graphics card and not have it boot into low color mode? | 03:48 |
| Tehedra | but the code in that folder should never be accessed unless its through another php script ont he server | 03:48 |
| DaZ | aaroninfidel: nvidia-xconfig | 03:48 |
| Tehedra | which chmod do i set it too? | 03:48 |
| Wolfcastle | is there some program to manage power consumptions in notebooks in jaunty? | 03:48 |
| Wolfcastle | ie to change cpu speed depending on battery or AC | 03:49 |
| aaroninfidel | DaZ, I just did that and it still wrote me a bad config. could I possibly have the wrong nVidia drivers installed? | 03:49 |
| rodiguim | LaireTM, open the console and ping google.com if you receive no answers means that something is wrong with you connection then you must check if you have the proper wlan drivers installed and working properly as well as wlan-manager that you are using to make the connection | 03:49 |
| bigtom21485 | anyone know how to restart sound drivers? | 03:49 |
| DaZ | aaroninfidel: lsmod|grep nvidia;glxinfo|grep direct | 03:50 |
| mordof | Tehedra: put it below wwwroot | 03:50 |
| mordof | Tehedra: and it won't matter | 03:50 |
| LaireTM | rodiguim: ping: unknown host google.com | 03:50 |
| Tehedra | mordof is there no other way then that? I dont really want to change the structure | 03:51 |
| mordof | Tehedra: php gets run as an extension of apache, which means that it needs the same read access as apache to read your php files. so no matter what if they're located inside your http or www folder or whatever you want to call it, people will be able to view them. easiest way is to put them outside the main folder | 03:51 |
| DaZ | aaroninfidel: and pastebin the logs ;f | 03:51 |
| LaireTM | rodigum: it shows me that I am connect to the wlan, and that my system resived an ip adress | 03:51 |
| mordof | Tehedra: at least i THINK that's how it works. i could be wrong | 03:51 |
| Tehedra | okay well thanks if i cant figure out another way | 03:51 |
| Tehedra | ill do that, but im pretty reluctant to do that :P | 03:51 |
| aaroninfidel | DaZ, http://pastie.org/655534 | 03:51 |
| rodiguim | LaireTM, are you using any wlan-manager to make the connection? | 03:52 |
| mordof | Tehedra: feel free to let me know (if you want to) if you prove me wrong ^^ i'd like to know also, hehe | 03:52 |
| DaZ | aaroninfidel: how did you install the drivers | 03:52 |
| aaroninfidel | hardware drivers application DaZ | 03:53 |
| Sirisian_ | Is there an option when installing or building a kernel so it doesn't install the recovery kernel? | 03:53 |
| Sirisian_ | or just remove it from the menu.lst? | 03:53 |
| mordof | that's a bad idea.. lol | 03:54 |
| LaireTM | rodifuim: I installed ubuntu and than i had an wlan symbol at the top, i click it and choosed my network, enter the password from my wlan andit connect | 03:54 |
| Sirisian_ | mordof, I'm building a lot of kernels for school and such. | 03:54 |
| LinuX2half | what firware does banshee support for ipod touch? | 03:54 |
| DaZ | aaroninfidel: cd /usr;find|grep libglx | 03:54 |
| === guilherme is now known as mipz0r | ||
| mordof | Sirisian_: imo, it might be a better approach to find a way to password protect it then. removing it altogether could mean the loss of data (if there is any) if you feel it's alright to reinstall at any major problem then it should be fine. i, however, have no idea how to remove it | 03:55 |

| trik | how do i remove bluetooth devices? | 03:58 |
| mamia | i cant play youtube vids... anyone? | 03:58 |
| durt | !flash | mamia | 03:59 |
| ubottu | mamia: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 03:59 |
| durt | !sound | bigtom21485 | 04:00 |
| ubottu | bigtom21485: 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 | 04:00 |

| sakthivel | how can u explain | 04:16 |
| DaZ | it's not possible | 04:16 |
| DaZ | it's like dividing by zero ;f | 04:16 |

| DaZ | whatever | 04:18 |
| DaZ | you know what i meant ;f | 04:18 |

| DaZ | sakthivel: sure | 04:19 |
| ChesFTC_ | 'inside' ? | 04:19 |
| prince_jammys | nic1: means you probably don't have permission to write to your present directory | 04:19 |
| mooglinux | im looking for a way to boot a cd from grub | 04:19 |
| ChesFTC_ | sakthivel: They're operating systems, so you can only run one at a time, unless you use a virtual machine | 04:19 |
| barcode_ | so im guessing you guys dont know how? :/ | 04:20 |
| Horofox | sakthivel: thats not possible, a dual book system means you choose which OS ur gonna boot | 04:20 |
| nic1 | prince_jammys, how can i give permissions | 04:20 |
| ChesFTC_ | barcode_: It depends on lots of things, such as what video card is in the laptop | 04:20 |
| thiebaude | sakthivel, do you have an ubuntu live cd? | 04:20 |
| sakthivel | yes | 04:20 |
| prince_jammys | nic1: is this some kind of installer script? if so, you'd run it as superuser, with sudo. | 04:20 |
| sakthivel | yes i have | 04:20 |
| nic1 | mooglinux, what is grub? | 04:20 |
| thiebaude | sakthivel, just boot from the live cd | 04:21 |
| sakthivel | ok | 04:21 |
| mooglinux | nicl grub is a bootloader | 04:21 |
| nic1 | prince_jammys, i am trying to install a package | 04:21 |
| rwood | barcode_: What kind of graphics chip is in the laptop? Nvidia, ATI/AMD. Intel? | 04:21 |

| thiebaude | sakthivel, when you get to the partitioning part choose install side-by-side, next to your windows OS | 04:22 |

| === franck_ is now known as franck | ||

| thiebaude | sakthivel, that way you have your choice of windows or ubuntu | 04:22 |

| Kuprin | Hey guys, I set up raid and have installed Ubuntu, but it still seems to think the raid devices don't exist. Everything's there and installed - I can chroot in from the liveCD and I've made sure. Problem is on bootup it can't find /dev/md2 (root) or any of the other raid devices. mdadm IS installed and is in rc. | 04:22 |
| barcode_ | rwood: ati radeon | 04:22 |
| ChesFTC_ | ah crap | 04:22 |
| losha | nic1: that's because you don't. Instead, change the permissions so you have write permissions... | 04:22 |
| barcode_ | >.< | 04:23 |
| ChesFTC_ | barcode_: There should be an ATI tool to do it, but I wouldn't know, since I use nvidia cards myself | 04:23 |
| concretesledge | i want to convert AVI to DVD format to play on home theater system.. what is the best/easiest? | 04:23 |
| prince_jammys | losha: why? | 04:23 |
| barcode_ | damn :( | 04:23 |
| losha | prince_jammys: what what? | 04:23 |
| nic1 | losha, i am not very clear, i ran both ./configure and make with sudo | 04:23 |
| nic1 | otherwise i am getting errors | 04:23 |
| Dishtroyer | Can someone tell me what the root password is? | 04:23 |
| prince_jammys | losha: the script is probably trying to write to /etc/foo or /usr/local/foo. his user doesn't need write permission there. | 04:23 |
| rwood | barcode_: I use nvidia as well, but you should be able to do it. | 04:23 |
| sakthivel | which is best......... ubuntu inside XP or XP inside Ubuntu? | 04:24 |
| davebs | Dishtroyer: i don't think there is a root password, isn't root disabled in ubuntu? | 04:24 |
| schemer999 | any recs for a quiet, cheap, ubuntu machine that can handle >= 8GB memory? | 04:24 |
| tritium | davebs: correct | 04:24 |
| barcode_ | hmm , i cant seem to get it working | 04:24 |
| DaZ | Dishtroyer: unly ubuntu developers know it | 04:24 |
| ChesFTC_ | sakthivel: You can generally only run ONE operating system at a time | 04:24 |
| DaZ | so they can spy on you | 04:24 |
| losha | nic1: if you get the sources via sudo apt-get, they will be owned by root, and not writable by you. Just do chown -R <your-user-name> . ; chmod -R u+w . Then you won't need to be root to compile/edit... | 04:25 |
| tritium | DaZ: please stop | 04:25 |
| DaZ | s/un/on/ | 04:25 |
| tritium | !root | Dishtroyer | 04:25 |
| ubottu | Dishtroyer: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 04:25 |
| ChesFTC_ | sakthivel: If you want to choose at boot though, you are better off installing windows first, then ubuntu by using the wubi tool. | 04:25 |
| Dishtroyer | When I try to boot ubuntu, it tells me there are file errors and runs an automatic fsck. But then it fails and says I need to run it manually and asks me to either provide a root password or press cntrl-D | 04:25 |
| sakthivel | but ubuntu inside xp .. we can use both same time? | 04:25 |
| DaZ | tritium: this is the way i protect my consciousness from stupid questions | 04:25 |
| DaZ | >: | 04:25 |
| thiebaude | sakthivel, have you ever thought about making the switch to ubuntu only? | 04:25 |
| tritium | DaZ: it's not appropriate here. | 04:25 |
| ChesFTC_ | sakthivel: You cannot use both at the same time unless you use software such as vmware to create a virtual machine. | 04:25 |
| sakthivel | yaa wine software ? | 04:26 |
| nic1 | losha, i gave chown -R <username> i get the error chown: missing operand after 'user name' | 04:26 |
| DaZ | nic1: directory? | 04:26 |
| ChesFTC_ | sakthivel: That's different, it emulates the win32 api, with a rather random chance of success for any given application | 04:26 |
| ChesFTC_ | wine won't let you run just any windows application | 04:27 |
| losha | nic1: that's because it is chown -R <username> . <--- see the 'dot' here? It is part of the command | 04:27 |
| ChesFTC_ | You're better off figuring out what linux application you should use instead | 04:27 |
| davebs | i'm a bit stuck on an issue: ubuntu install off usb goes to this swirly pulse of random colors right after the loading screen (on another monitor it just goes to black), the framebuffer=false option doesn't help, and I successfully booted off of a backtrack live usb drive i had around (which is kubuntu and uses framebuffer)... doesn't seem to be much online about this other than disable fbuffer? | 04:27 |
| DaZ | dot is the local directory | 04:27 |
| DaZ | <: | 04:27 |
| losha | DaZ: when I find myself making fun of the newbies, it means it's time to take a break... | 04:27 |
| sakthivel | now i have installed ubuntu in my PC. i want to install Xp also ..but i dont want wine software.. ist it possible to install seoartely// | 04:27 |

| Sirisian_ | losha, I'm in the off-topic channel. Actually no. I could just choose 3 random ones, but I was just curious mostly. | 04:30 |

A bttv tuner card of 'kworld' which is connected to my motherboard's sound input with a external jack from its sound output. If I try to play tv through it on any linux distro including ubuntu I have to go to console and type rmmod bttv first and then modprobe bttv card=78 tuner=68 radio=1. After that if I open the tvtime or xawtv I can watch the vidios of channels without a | 04:31 |
| Dishtroyer | How do I use SUDO? | 04:31 |
| joebodo | Dishtroyer, did you run the fsck manually as it suggested - | 04:31 |
| joebodo | Dishtroyer, that is normally what you do to fix the file system | 04:31 |
| Dishtroyer | I CANT RUN IT MANUALLY WITHOUT THE PASSWORD | 04:31 |

| tritium | Dishtroyer: you've been told that there is no root password | 04:32 |
| tritium | !root | Dishtroyer (again -- pay attention, please) | 04:32 |
| ubottu | Dishtroyer (again -- pay attention, please): Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 04:32 |
| Dishtroyer | So what do I type when it asks me for one? | 04:32 |
| * ChesFTC_ sighs | 04:32 | |
| maco | Dishtroyer: your own password | 04:32 |
| * DaZ thinks you're wrong. | 04:33 | |
| ChesFTC_ | maco: He's hanging on a fsck at boot | 04:33 |
| ChesFTC_ | You're wrong | 04:33 |
| thiebaude | Dishtroyer, did you create one on install? | 04:33 |
| Dishtroyer | maco: I don't remmeber it, even if I had one | 04:33 |
| Dishtroyer | I probably did but I don't remember it | 04:33 |
| DaZ | Dishtroyer: boot from cd, chroot, set root password and live a happy life | 04:33 |
| ChesFTC_ | Dishtroyer: Hit Ctrl-d, login and set a root password, reboot and enter it, then type fsck -y / to manually do the fsck | 04:33 |
| maco | ChesFTC_: wait what? i was answering "what password do i use for sudo?" | 04:34 |
| tritium | DaZ: please dont' recommend setting a root password | 04:34 |
| DaZ | ChesFTC_: doesn't like reboot after it? | 04:34 |
| ChesFTC_ | maco: He's got a fsck failing on boot | 04:34 |
| DaZ | tritium: i will | 04:34 |
| thiebaude | hmm | 04:34 |
| jebblue | ***need to learn more about chroot | 04:34 |
| Dishtroyer | Ches, CNTRL-D just reboots! | 04:34 |
| maco | ChesFTC_: so why's he asking about sudo? | 04:34 |
| tritium | DaZ: no, please do not. | 04:34 |
| ChesFTC_ | Dishtroyer: Dunno | 04:34 |
| ChesFTC_ | sorry | 04:34 |
| ChesFTC_ | maco: Dunno why | 04:34 |
| DaZ | tritium: then fix it without a password | 04:34 |
| ChesFTC_ | Dishtroyer: You should boot off a livecd then | 04:34 |
| ChesFTC_ | And fsck your hdd from there | 04:34 |
| Dishtroyer | AND? | 04:34 |
| ChesFTC_ | Afer you fsck it, then it should boot normally | 04:35 |
| Dishtroyer | The live CD must be messed up because I can't get to a command prompt | 04:35 |
| Kuprin | How do you get modules to autoload at boot in Ubuntu? | 04:35 |
| prince_jammys | !password | Dishtroyer : for a way | 04:35 |
| ubottu | Dishtroyer : for a way: 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 | 04:35 |
| blaaaarg | So ; i was just hanging out ; and got a kernel panic shutdown error | 04:36 |
| blaaaarg | where can i find that? | 04:36 |
| maco | Kuprin: put it in /etc/modules | 04:36 |
| tritium | Kuprin: list them in /etc/modules | 04:36 |
| prince_jammys | Dishtroyer: the first url, for how to do it from recovery mode. | 04:36 |
| Dishtroyer | Ok will try that. Thank you | 04:36 |
| losha | Dishtroyer: if you have an fsck failure on boot, and you didn't set a root password when you had the chance (i.e. when the system was booting ok) then you have to boot a live cd and fsck from there. I don't think you have any other option... | 04:37 |
| joebodo | blaaaarg, perhaps /var/log/syslog (if it was logged at all) | 04:37 |
| DaZ | ubuntu design is awesome | 04:37 |
| rwood | ChesFTC_: FYI TestDisk worked like a champ. I hope. I'm going to try to reboot now and see what happens. | 04:37 |

| milesc2 | AVG has gui | 05:32 |
| lstarnes | Roasted: try clamtk. A windows-based virus scanner is better for finding windows viruses. clamav is mainly used to check for email viruses on mail servers | 05:32 |
| theDtTvB2`MB | clamav can scan Windows viruses too maybe because it also runs on Windows. | 05:33 |
| Roasted | that's what I was thi nking | 05:33 |

| Roasted | sebsebseb - I have a ton of stuff on there from work. I recently put a lot of new stuff on it and haven't updated my backup. (I rsync my flash drive contents to my ubuntu machine for redundancy) | 05:52 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: I am not sure if any of the Linux tools can remove Conflicter, but I think there's something for Windows that can | 05:52 |

| zmanning | or the iso | 05:52 |

| DigitalKiwi | does confickr infect files? like is anything he has on that flash drive actually safe anymore? | 05:52 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: it won't infect your Ubuntu install though, since it's a Windows virus | 05:52 |
| LinuX2half | lstarnes: from the terminal | 05:52 |
| Roasted | sebsebseb - I know. That's why I'm trying to scan it from within Ubuntu. | 05:52 |
| lstarnes | LinuX2half: where, exactly? | 05:52 |
| lstarnes | LinuX2half: what command gave you that? | 05:53 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: you can probably copy the files to your Ubuntu install, and then remove everything on the USB stick | 05:53 |
| preecher | sbm---possibly smart boot manager? | 05:53 |
| Roasted | sebsebseb - and then copy the files back and restore the virus. Right? | 05:53 |

| sebsebseb | Roasted: maybe, but probably not, I mean if the files open up ok in Ubuntu, then they are probably ok | 05:53 |
| LinuX2half | lstames: smbinst | 05:53 |
| Roasted | sebsebseb - the files open fine, but conficker itself is a file soemwhere on my fl ash drive. | 05:54 |
| Roasted | I just really need to figure out HOW to scan instead of WHY to scan. | 05:54 |
| lstarnes | LinuX2half: I don't have that command (also, my nick has r and n, not m) | 05:54 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: right, well you copy/move the files that you know about, the ones that are your data, and then format the drive | 05:54 |
| Roasted | again, I'd like to know how to scan. I'm sorry to be an ass but I just want to figure this out while actively scanning the drive. | 05:55 |

| lstarnes | LinuX2half: I don't have that either | 05:55 |
| rhett | maybe that was for an older ubuntu | 05:55 |
| Roasted | DigitalKiwi - dpkg is what installs it - correct? I already have it installed. | 05:55 |
| rhett | my stupid atheros wireless card won't connect with wpa | 05:56 |

| DigitalKiwi | -L is a flag that lists the files owned by that package | 05:56 |

| sebsebseb | Roasted: You could delete the infected file using Ubuntu I expect, of course you got to know which one it is first | 06:09 |
| Roasted | sebsebseb - which is where my problem lies :( | 06:09 |

| InitHello | nuxil: that *might* be enough for a minimal install-from-usb | 06:09 |
| DigitalKiwi | but it's free | 06:09 |
| losha | Sirisian: run df -h If it isn't obvious, then paste the output to paste.ubuntu.com & we can look at it together. | 06:10 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: I am pretty sure there is something for Windows to remove it though | 06:10 |
| vox | Guest36056: ok, now dpkg -l "nvidia-glx**" | 06:10 |
| === william is now known as Guest9948 | ||
| vox | Guest36056: er | 06:10 |
| DigitalKiwi | the license key is free, and iirc you don't need it for 60 days, for home use | 06:10 |
| vox | Guest36056: ok, now dpkg -l "nvidia-glx*" | 06:10 |
| Roasted | sebsebseb - I have tried the two programs "known" to remove conficker - and it hasnt removed it. | 06:10 |
| nuxil | InitHello, i only need base system installed. and apt. if i get that in. the rest will be pize of cake | 06:10 |
| vox | that one | 06:10 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: How many files do you have on the Flash drive? | 06:11 |
| Guest36056 | vox: grep ii? | 06:11 |
| nelovishk | Jordan_u: thank you very much, that's very helpful. | 06:11 |
| Roasted | sebsebseb - 8gb worth | 06:11 |
| losha | Roasted: maybe it isn't conficker? | 06:11 |
| Jordan_U | nelovishk: np | 06:11 |
| Roasted | sebsebseb - I have files from work, drivers for all of the systems I work on, etc | 06:11 |
| vox | Guest36056: yeah, if you like | 06:11 |
| Roasted | losha - it is. It finds it and detects 2 instances of conficker on my flash drive, but it cant remove it. | 06:11 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: I see so lots meaning going manuaully through them all to check that they are ok or not, would take ages | 06:11 |
| vox | Guest36056: it should hopefully be nvidia-glx-185 | 06:11 |
| whatis6x9 | Roasted, lol | 06:11 |
| vox | or something | 06:12 |

| nuxil | InitHello, but where do i find this mini install. i need to check the size | 06:12 |
| whatis6x9 | then you cannot afford to keep the install. Backup c:\documents and settings and have fun. | 06:12 |
| InitHello | nuxil: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 06:13 |

| whatis6x9 | Roasted, so let me see here... your flash drive windows programs have conficker and you cant clean it? | 06:13 |

| sebsebseb | whatis6x9: he has 8GB worth of stuff on it, he does not know which file is infected | 06:14 |
| Guest36056 | vox, so i have an old nvidia-glx driver, namely 180 instead of 185? | 06:14 |
| vox | Guest36056: ok, now apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-glx-180 | 06:14 |
| losha | Sirisian: ok, the first line shows /dev/sda1 is mounted on root (/). Please type the following: sudo -i ; cd /; du -x | sort -rn > /tmp/du.out | 06:14 |
| whatis6x9 | Guest36056, i recommend the 190.xx beta btw | 06:14 |
| vox | Guest36056: nah, 185 is the ubuntu 9.10 nvidia release | 06:14 |
| vox | Guest36056: 180 is fine | 06:14 |
| whatis6x9 | 185 is crap. | 06:14 |
| whatis6x9 | no offense to nvidia, but that was a horrible release - ive seen problems on about 50% of nvidia installs with that driver | 06:15 |
| whatis6x9 | massive tearing, refresh issues, etc/ | 06:15 |
| Guest36056 | vox, do you think the driver got corrupted? | 06:15 |
| whatis6x9 | ok Roasted then youve got to break your job up into folders | 06:15 |
| whatis6x9 | scan one at a time | 06:15 |
| vox | Guest36056: well either something is corrupted, your box has bad ram, or your video card has bad ram | 06:15 |
| Roasted | whatis6x9 - I'm just trying to utilize an Ubuntu virus scanner in hopes that perhaps I can zap conficker from my flash drive within Linux. The problem is, I'm also trying to tinker around with linux scanners while I'm at it. The curve ball - they either suck, or are terminal based (whcih is fine) but I'm just trying to find one that works. | 06:15 |
| whatis6x9 | Roasted, what ones have you tried so far? Avast! has a linux binary | 06:16 |
| Roasted | whatis6x9 - AVG, ClamAV, and I tried Avast but it hit me with registration and licensing and Im just not dealing with that crap tongiht. | 06:16 |
| Roasted | Just trying to find something I can just - BAM! Install and scan and get the hell to bed. | 06:16 |
| Guest36056 | vox, ouch, not what i wanna hear. ok, installed...reboot? | 06:16 |
| vox | Guest36056: easiest way | 06:17 |

| GLG | need help for xserver: unable to create new x config backup file. why? | 06:18 |
| losha | Roasted: the licensing is trivial and, if I recall, automated. You fill in the form and it mails you a license number. But you might be better off finding something tailored to conficker in ##windows. | 06:18 |
| whatis6x9 | Roasted, join #flood | 06:18 |
| Sirisian | losha, no file is created when I run that | 06:18 |
| Roasted | losha - I did find two applications tailored to conficker in windows, and both failed. | 06:19 |
| losha | Sirisian: no /tmp/du,out ? | 06:19 |
| Roasted | losha - at this point I'm almost just trying to find a virus scanner that installs and works in linux without headaches. So far, 2 down, no luck. | 06:19 |
| Sirisian | losha, nope | 06:19 |
| smithclk | I'm having a speed limitation problem while using usbserial with my hspa modem. Is there any workaround or alternative that i can use to get the full speed? | 06:19 |

| ZykoticK9 | ekontsevoy, ctrl+alt and F1-F12 will take you to the virtual consoles: F7 is usually where X starts - this way you can actually have multiple X sessions running at once as well as the multiple text console F1-F6 -- have fun! | 06:24 |
| sebsebseb | Azzmodan: Wubi on a raid as well, uhmm doesn't sound good at all | 06:24 |
| Sirisian | losha, maybe I have to empty the trashcan thing. I forgot ubuntu has that | 06:24 |
| sebsebseb | Azzmodan: plus 9.10 isn't out yet and the channel for it is #ubuntu+1 real partitions :) | 06:25 |
| ekontsevoy | ZykoticK9: Thank you, I am quite familiar with consoles, I am just surprised to see screen there. I don't want it, because I run screen via ssh on my servers, and screen inside of screen is painful, so I am looking how to turn this off. | 06:25 |

| GhostWolfy | hi all, does anyone know how to check my hdd that has a windows os on it how many bad sectors is on the hdd through live cd? | 07:04 |
| firdau5 | hi wolfy, you can try nst from sourceforge.net website | 07:05 |
| chrissy | see i have done that before and all i get is a blank screen | 07:05 |
| firdau5 | thats an opensource software | 07:05 |
| firdau5 | chrissy | 07:05 |
| chrissy | yes | 07:06 |

| === __Techie__ is now known as _Techie_ | ||
| firdau5 | you should choose the screen saver in the screen saver theme list | 07:07 |
| losha | GhostWolfy: the only way I know of would be to download & use smartmontools to look at the SMART data (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T.), or perhaps to boot the manufacturer's own diagnostic disk | 07:07 |
| GhostWolfy | firdau5, i don't wanna go to a site i wanna try to do it from the live cd and the hdd i want to scan only has windows on | 07:07 |
| GhostWolfy | it | 07:07 |
| firdau5 | instead of 'blank screen' | 07:07 |
| GhostWolfy | losha, ok | 07:07 |
| firdau5 | that click OK | 07:07 |
| chrissy | ok hold on i will check | 07:07 |

| losha | al_: see if this helps: http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/badblockhowto.html Note that by the time a modern drive reports bad blocks, it usually means it's already tried to reallocate the block and failed i.e. the drive has essentially already gone bad and should no longer be considered reliable... | 07:12 |

| davebs | i tried "framebuffer=false" | 07:16 |
| davebs | yes, 9.04 | 07:16 |
| davebs | i've tried regular and alternative | 07:16 |
| alteregod | and the working one is? | 07:17 |
| davebs | alternative gave me a kernel panick | 07:17 |
| firdau5 | haha | 07:17 |
| davebs | the working one is backtrack 4, kubuntu basically | 07:17 |
| alteregod | sounds your hardware is messed up | 07:17 |
| davebs | that's what i've been thinking | 07:17 |
| firdau5 | long time no see the 'kernel panic' | 07:17 |
| davebs | so i've been running a memtest | 07:17 |
| davebs | but nothing yet | 07:17 |
| firdau5 | ya | 07:17 |

| Degot | Hi... Situation : After Installing Server amd64 9.10 , i can`t start ubuntu... during boot process, system can`t mount /dev/sda1.... ext4 or ext3 it doesn`t matter, result is the same. BUT 9.04 installation works fine with ext3/ext4... Any ideas? | 07:18 |
| losha | al_: er, I'm actually not sure if the Ubuntu mapping of blocks to files stuff works on microsoft filesystems. The SMART data for the drive should tell you how many *actual* reallocated sectors the drive has had to do. but I actually think the filesystem only reports bad blocks after the drive fails to reallocate successfully, but that might vary between manufacturers.... | 07:18 |
| davebs | it's a core 2 duo 5400 | 07:18 |
| davebs | 2 gigs ram | 07:18 |

| davebs | yeah? | 07:18 |
| davebs | can i set that in the bios? | 07:18 |
| alteregod | at least try, if it works you ram is ucked up | 07:18 |
| firdau5 | your mother board is intel right? | 07:18 |
| alteregod | yeah | 07:18 |
| davebs | gigabyte is manufacturer, but i think it's intel stuff inside | 07:19 |
| snkcld | does anyone know why eclipse isnt configured properly for software updates in ubuntu 9.1? | 07:19 |
| al_ | losha: yer i thought there might be a linux tool for it, guess not | 07:19 |
| firdau5 | than your ram is not either kingston or apacer? | 07:19 |
| losha | Degot: why you would want to run a release that's barely in beta on a server is beyond me... | 07:19 |
| davebs | it's cheap, whatever it is | 07:19 |
| firdau5 | I see | 07:19 |
| davebs | i was trying to build a basic linux server for realtively cheap but w/ decent stuff | 07:19 |
| firdau5 | I suspect.. its your ram | 07:19 |
| davebs | but yeah, i skimped on the ram, bought cheapest stuff on newegg | 07:19 |
| alteregod | i always use ECC, and i dont care if its 50 bucks more | 07:20 |
| davebs | would that explain the initial graphics problem? | 07:20 |
| firdau5 | try to use apacer or kingston ram first | 07:20 |
| neil_d | snkcld: to be precise that is 9.10 not 9.1 as the '10' refers to the month it is released in. | 07:20 |
| davebs | because i was concerned it was the onboard video | 07:20 |
| davebs | i'm just trying to use this w/out a monitor, keyboard, just connect via vnc once i get it setup | 07:20 |
| snkcld | ah i did not know that, thank you | 07:20 |
| snkcld | thats a good point though | 07:21 |
| snkcld | so 9.1 would be for a january release | 07:21 |
| davebs | but i guess that's what i get for going cheap, haha | 07:21 |
| losha | al_: well there is, but it's for *linux* filesystems, which doesn't seem unreasonable. The smartmontools stuff will still work though... | 07:21 |
| neil_d | snkcld: yes it would.. but as ubuntu is a 6 month release cycle it is unlikely to happen in January. | 07:22 |

| CaptainMorgan | alteregod, did - as I said | 07:23 |
| neil_d | CaptainMorgan: when I installed flash I had to log out and the log back in for it to go properly, I didn't reboot. | 07:24 |
| CaptainMorgan | alteregod, might it be affected by cache ? | 07:24 |
| CaptainMorgan | neil_d, ah... suggesting maybe an issue with a process or X... okay, I'll try that | 07:24 |

| teknozwizard | hassanakevazir, foofish: right, I call "gedit" text editor and I do not care too much for vi or emacs. That's why I was wondering if there was another editor out there. | 07:41 |

| phantomcircuit | really? | 07:45 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: less extreme: System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media and then uncheck the first two boxes on the storage tab. This will turn off automounting for everything not defined in /etc/fstab, | 07:45 |

| phantomcircuit | there *is* not Removeable Devices and Media under preferences | 07:46 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: do not run fsck if any partitions are mounted | 07:46 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: always run sudo umount -a then do whatever | 07:46 |
| Dishtroyer | OK it saysunexpected inode fsck failed run fsck maualluy without any - a | 07:47 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: or you can simply kill gnome-volume-manager and use bum so it never gets autoloaded at startup | 07:47 |
| Dishtroyer | Yes I umounted it | 07:47 |
| ziroday | Dishtroyer: please run the command I gave you. | 07:47 |
| Dishtroyer | OK ziroday | 07:47 |
| alteregod | how can i destroy bowser? | 07:47 |

| Boohbah | can somebody paste the output of 'ls -al /dev/fuse' please? | 07:48 |
| suigeneris | why would rar say file too large on a reiserfs disk? | 07:48 |
| faraz__ | koolhead, | 07:48 |
| phantomcircuit | so the problem i was having is the flash drive fs is corrupted | 07:49 |
| phantomcircuit | so obviously it cant be mounted | 07:49 |
| phantomcircuit | but with auto mount + auto browse turned on | 07:49 |
| suigeneris | Boohbah, crw-rw-rw-+ 1 root fuse 10, 229 2009-10-14 10:46 /dev/fuse | 07:49 |
| phantomcircuit | i could never get past the error messages | 07:49 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: i'd just pull out the daemon, its not system essential so you can still reinstall it in the future. | 07:49 |
| koolhead | faraz__: how are things out there.read the news. | 07:49 |
| Dishtroyer | it says invalid command 0 | 07:50 |

| indus | Dishtroyer: so are you in the recovery console now? | 07:52 |
| prince_jammys | Dishtroyer: show the command you entered to get help. | 07:52 |
| nahy | hi. my messenger doesn't work (pidgin) it just can show the empty groups. i just reinstalled it but again the same problem | 07:52 |
| ActionParsnip | nahy: close pidgin, rename ~/.purple then relaunch | 07:53 |
| baccenfutter | alteregod, ActionParsnip: http://backenfutter.crew.c-base.org/julia_klein.png.gz | 07:53 |
| Dishtroyer | when I type in sudo e2fsck -c0 -p -f -v /dev/sda5 | 07:53 |
| baccenfutter | took approx 6h to render | 07:53 |
| nahy | where can i find it | 07:53 |
| Dishtroyer | it says invalid option --'0' | 07:53 |
| prince_jammys | Dishtroyer: capital C | 07:53 |
| Dishtroyer | Oooooo | 07:53 |
| Dishtroyer | BRB | 07:53 |
| ActionParsnip | nahy: ~/.purple is the folder | 07:53 |
| ActionParsnip | nahy: ~/.purple == /home/$USER/.purple == $HOME/.purple | 07:54 |
| nahy | found it | 07:54 |
| nahy | but what name should i give | 07:54 |
| ActionParsnip | nahy: only rename, this folder stores the pidgin settings, you can then try with a blank profile | 07:54 |
| krissy2k9 | hey | 07:55 |
| krissy2k9 | hey | 07:55 |
| ActionParsnip | nahy: anything you like. something like .purple_old is okay but you can call it .purplethatisgivingmegrief or .purple_15Oct09 | 07:55 |
| nahy | ok | 07:55 |
| nahy | thanks | 07:56 |
| ActionParsnip | baccenfutter: pretty click image dude. like it | 07:56 |
| baccenfutter | ActionParsnip: wish I could look at it^^ | 07:57 |
| ActionParsnip | baccenfutter: try imagemagick | 07:57 |
| baccenfutter | ActionParsnip: manelbrot is still rendering 25k x 25k | 07:57 |
| ActionParsnip | nahy: apps like folders to be named what they like, if its different a fresh one will be made and you can reconfigure your accounts to see if its a bad app or just a bad profile | 07:58 |
| baccenfutter | ActionParsnip: it's a 106 lines py script, that did the rendering... | 07:58 |
| nahy | ActionParsnip: but it has the same problem again. should i have a clean uninstall...? | 07:59 |
| ActionParsnip | baccenfutter: slick | 07:59 |
| Dishtroyer | /dev/sda5: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY. | 07:59 |
| Dishtroyer | (i.e., without -a or -p options) | 07:59 |
| ActionParsnip | nahy: sounds like it, you can rename the old profile back now as you can suspect the app | 07:59 |
| baccenfutter | ActionParsnip: how do I call imagemagick... I installed it, but can't find it | 07:59 |
| ActionParsnip | baccenfutter: i like punchy code like that | 07:59 |
| DigitalKiwi | baccenfutter: that's cool | 08:00 |
| baccenfutter | ActionParsnip: http://backenfutter.crew.c-base.org/fractals.html | 08:00 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: so just type fsck | 08:00 |
| nahy | ActionParsnip: i did as you said and it shows the app is not working | 08:00 |
| DigitalKiwi | the picture you posted earlier | 08:00 |
| baccenfutter | ActionParsnip: not my code, though | 08:00 |
| Dishtroyer | I did | 08:00 |
| iceroot | baccenfutter: imagemagick is not a single program | 08:00 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: and it will run | 08:00 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: without any parameters | 08:00 |
| Dishtroyer | sudo fsck /dev/sda5 | 08:00 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: fsck | 08:00 |

| obiwan_ | hey, is it possible for staff to read my password? | 08:07 |
| lstarnes | obiwan_: no | 08:08 |
| indus | obiwan_: dont know | 08:08 |
| Dishtroyer | ok now its finished. ALOT of errors though | 08:08 |
| obiwan_ | ok thanks both :) | 08:08 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: thats ok | 08:08 |
| lstarnes | obiwan_: it's stored in an encrypted, undecryptable hash format | 08:08 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: so now it finished successfully? | 08:08 |
| obiwan_ | then i can use the same pass i use for my linux user | 08:08 |
| lstarnes | obiwan_: if you lose your password, freenode staff can send you a password reset key | 08:08 |
| Dishtroyer | I believe so indus | 08:08 |
| indus | obiwan_: whats the password? | 08:08 |
| indus | :P | 08:08 |
| lstarnes | obiwan_: using a different password is a better idea | 08:09 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: ya so now reboot i guess | 08:09 |
| obiwan_ | why you wanna now :P? | 08:09 |
| lstarnes | obiwan_: connections to freenode aren't encrypted | 08:09 |
| foofish | obiwan_: i would suggest that to be a Bad Idea | 08:09 |
| Dishtroyer | I'm going to reboot | 08:09 |
| DigitalKiwi | my password is nimda | 08:09 |
| obiwan_ | hmm ok :/ | 08:09 |
| Dishtroyer | If it works I'll see you in a few | 08:09 |
| firdau5 | current most popular password = 123456 | 08:09 |

| jdevel | hello | 08:09 |
| firdau5 | hello jdevel | 08:10 |
| indus | !irc | 08:10 |
| ubottu | A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines | 08:10 |
| jdevel | I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a channel that has a lot of knowledge w/ c programming? | 08:10 |
| indus | irchelp | 08:10 |
| prince_jammys | jdevel: ##c | 08:11 |
| indus | guys what is the help channel for irc | 08:11 |
| jdevel | channel name is ##c | 08:11 |
| jdevel | ? | 08:11 |
| iceroot | indus: #help | 08:11 |
| prince_jammys | jdevel: yes. | 08:11 |
| jdevel | thank you very much. | 08:11 |
| lstarnes | indus: #freenode | 08:11 |
| lstarnes | iceroot: there is no #help; it's an empty redirect to #freenode | 08:11 |
| firdau5 | jdevel... /join #freenode | 08:12 |
| iceroot | lstarnes: so with #help you get the help you want :) | 08:12 |
| firdau5 | there is no channel named #help | 08:12 |
| lstarnes | iceroot: it's not #help | 08:12 |
| lstarnes | iceroot: it's #freenode | 08:12 |
| MoralExpl | Question, how do I set a root password, currently when I sudo I use the same password to login to my account... which is very insecure. | 08:12 |
| prince_jammys | !sudo | MoralExpl : read about sudo | 08:13 |
| ubottu | MoralExpl : read about sudo: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 08:13 |
| lstarnes | MoralExpl: that's actually somewhat more secure than setting a root password | 08:13 |
| MoralExpl | lstarnes, how so? | 08:13 |
| iceroot | lstarnes: and if you join #help you will go to #freenode so its all fine if you use #help :-) | 08:13 |
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: forget all about root and your system will be much safer | 08:13 |
| lstarnes | iceroot: but you shouldn't use #help | 08:13 |
| lstarnes | MoralExpl: setting a root password opens up the root account to the same vulnerabilities that other accounts with passwords have, and root is the mosat frequently attacked account | 08:13 |
| firdau5 | well my stranger friends.. its ok | 08:13 |
| MoralExpl | Can I set a more secure sudo password | 08:13 |
| === obiwan_ is now known as obiwan__ | ||
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: everyones sudo password is the same as the one they log in with, that is normal | 08:14 |
| MoralExpl | and keep my username password the same | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: no | 08:14 |
| lstarnes | MoralExpl: use a more secure account password | 08:14 |
| iceroot | MoralExpl: sudo-password == userpassword | 08:14 |
| MoralExpl | wow. | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: account pass == sudo pass | 08:14 |
| MoralExpl | that's kind of a letdown | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: if you change your account pass you will need to use the same new pass for sudo | 08:14 |
| MoralExpl | My usual root password is 23char long | 08:15 |
| ZachK_ | hello team | 08:15 |
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: then use that for your logon | 08:15 |
| MoralExpl | takes too long | 08:15 |
| firdau5 | <MoralExpl> My usual root password is 23char long <---- wow... now you gave us the clue :D :p | 08:15 |
| prince_jammys | MoralExpl: the whole idea behind sudo is that certain users have the right to do certain things. those special users use their own password to access special privileges. | 08:15 |
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: if its usual, arent you awesome at typing it ;) | 08:15 |
| MoralExpl | is there a way to setup a root account? | 08:16 |
| obiwan__ | yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah i'm registered now ! :) | 08:16 |
| ActionParsnip | MoralExpl: you can use: sudo -s to get an interactive root-like terminal | 08:16 |
| iceroot | MoralExpl: yes but you dont need a root-account | 08:16 |
| MoralExpl | aight i guess ill just change my password | 08:17 |
| Brando753 | guys i made an email template in openoffice how can i send it as an email, it seems to just make it an attachment | 08:17 |
| === GamesMedic is now known as Dishtroyer | ||
| lstarnes | ActionParsnip, MoralExpl: sudo -i is preferred over sudo -s. -i imitates a root login, while -s just launches a shell as root with your user's current environment | 08:17 |
| Dishtroyer | YAY!!!!!!! | 08:17 |
| krissy2k9 | hi | 08:17 |

| prince_jammys | !password | Dishtroyer | 08:21 |
| ubottu | Dishtroyer: 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 | 08:21 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: sudo passwd yourusername | 08:22 |
| prince_jammys | interesting suggestion. | 08:22 |
| Dishtroyer | Its asling me for my password. I don't remember | 08:23 |
| preecher | does anyone know of a good webcam prog to use in ubuntu for a creative webcam other than cheese | 08:23 |
| prince_jammys | take ubottu off /ignore? | 08:23 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: ok i cant help you then | 08:24 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: you dont remember your sudo password? | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | preecher: amsn maybe | 08:25 |
| preecher | thanks ActionParsnip | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Dishtroyer: if you mean your logon/sudo password you can boot to root recovery console and type: passwd <your username here> | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Dishtroyer: to set your password | 08:25 |
| geekphreak | hello all | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Dishtroyer: if you are already logged in as the same user, you can simply run passwd to set your own password | 08:26 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: there is no need to go to recovery console for that | 08:26 |
| geekphreak | anyone having issues with getting webcam to work/detect on ubuntu 9? | 08:26 |
| Dishtroyer | OK when I go into terminal it has myusername@ubuntu | 08:26 |
| indus | Dishtroyer: ya just type sudo passwd at terminal | 08:26 |
| Dishtroyer | I type sudo passwd alan and it asks me for myexisting password | 08:26 |
| * prince_jammys is deeply confused. | 08:27 | |
| ActionParsnip | geekphreak: run: lsusb one line will identify the cam, you can start websearches using the 8 hex character ID | 08:27 |
| Boohbah | suigeneris: thanks | 08:27 |
| prince_jammys | Dishtroyer: how did you log in in the first place? | 08:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Dishtroyer: are you logged in as alan? | 08:27 |
| geekphreak | ActionParsnip: thank you will do | 08:27 |
| Dishtroyer | I don't have a password enabled | 08:27 |
| suigeneris | np | 08:27 |
| Dishtroyer | It just boots ito my aacount automatically | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Dishtroyer: if you type: whoami does it say alan | 08:28 |
| geekphreak | ok that is showing my cam | 08:28 |
| Dishtroyer | Actionparsnip: yes | 08:28 |
| geekphreak | getting to google now ty | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | geekphreak: ok the 8 caracter hex bit is the cam, what is printed on the plastic case means nearly nothing, copy / paste that code into a websearch and put ubuntu on the end, see what you get | 08:29 |
| preecher | i hate to keep asking questns but ima linux noob--also do anyone know of a good and easy firewall for ubuntu | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Dishtroyer: then just type: passwd then, you can now set your password | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | !firewall | preecher | 08:29 |
| ubottu | preecher: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 08:29 |
| Dishtroyer | alan@Workgroup:~$ passwd | 08:29 |

| Dishtroyer | (current) UNIX password: | 08:29 |
| prince_jammys | !password | Dishtroyer | 08:30 |
| ubottu | Dishtroyer: 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.

| tred | i trashed a kubuntu install trying to get old video drivers for a 9200se, but i used to used the livecd to copy my home folder somewhere else and now i have freshly installed kubuntu again and copied home folder back, but im getting a few small probs. firefox wont open right, prob due to the lockfile i read about, and when i open the terminal window i get a error about "Configuration file "/home/tred/.kde/share/config/konsolerc" not writable. | 08:39 |

| ubottu | Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 09:17 |

| MenZa | Also, the latest versions (CS3, CS4) do not work for any, iirc. | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip | O__o: not all apps work in wine | 09:17 |
| O__o | hence vitualbox + windows is the best solution and easiest | 09:18 |
| ActionParsnip | O__o: you may get more luck with cedega or crossoveroffice but both are not free | 09:18 |
| Jyxt | cedega is just wine with paid support | 09:18 |
| Jyxt | or crossover is, i cant remember...one of those is just wine with paid support | 09:18 |
| ActionParsnip | O__o: but with a vbox you need a license, if the systems main use is photoshop, you may as well use widows | 09:19 |
| BoboJones | Help me!! I just got sent a photoshop file that won't open in GIMP! | 09:19 |
| halberd | hey my wireless card seems to be broken (can't detect any wireless networks), how can I test further? | 09:19 |

| ActionParsnip | csarven: it uses the same repos, when the rc comes out you will upgrade (slowly) to the rc without need for any extra effort | 09:27 |
| DJones | csarven: 9.10 questions should be asked in #ubuntu+1 until its released, but to answer your question, you'll get updates between now and final release which will bring your system up to the final release automatically | 09:27 |

| mo0nykit | jontore: Is the resolution all right in the GUI? | 09:44 |
| jontore | mo0nykit: Nvidia I think | 09:44 |
| mo0nykit | in a terminal "lspci | grep VGA" | 09:45 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: what do you get? | 09:45 |
| jontore | mo0nykit; it says it is a ATI card apperntly, strange in windows I use a nvidia driver :) | 09:47 |
| harisund | For a laptop, or even in general, which company's graphics card works best on Linux / Ubuntu? | 09:47 |
| harisund | Intel AMD or nVidia? | 09:47 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: strange indeed. what graphic driver did you install? how did you install it? | 09:48 |
| jontore | mo0nykit: I installed a ATI graphics driver proposed by the HW manager | 09:48 |
| mo0nykit | harisund: from I read, Intel 9xxGM chipsets are aheadache | 09:48 |
| Jimi_Neutral | i have found intels work best but they are crap for anything more intense than guld wars or wow | 09:48 |

| mo0nykit | jontore: HW manager, you mean System --> Administration --> Hardware Drivers? | 09:49 |

| harisund | JasseT: hmm thanks .. that's good to know :-) nVidia it will be I guess | 09:49 |
| lab | hi. I'm trying to install ATI drivers on jaunty 9.04. I followed these instructions and they were a disaster: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI . I googled and I didn't find anything useful. Any suggestion? All worked fine for 8.10, but with 9.04 these drivers are a nightmare..... | 09:50 |
| mo0nykit | harisund: I also heard that the Intel 9xx cards aren't natively Intel. It's a company they bought out. Now Intel's doing a new GPU to compete with Nvidia's Tesla line. | 09:50 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: okay, is the resolution pretty in the GUI? | 09:51 |
| harisund | mo0nykit: cool man, good to know | 09:51 |
| JasseT | harisund: yeah well at least for me nvidia's never given any trouble | 09:51 |
| mo0nykit | lab: what kind of disaster? | 09:51 |
| jontore | mo0nykit: sry it is a ATI card I checked with another computer right now, I never get past the bootup splash so I don't now | 09:52 |
| lab | mo0nykit: the instructions are messed up and they show an unacceptable procedure | 09:52 |
| mo0nykit | JasseT: Nvidia gave me some trouble with the framebuffer, too :P I had to manually configure menu.lst with vga=792 | 09:53 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: all right, access the grub menu (press ESC to access the grub menu), the choose recovery mode | 09:53 |
| lab | they should be removed from ubunt's website. And I don't know how to install these fuck%&/&% drivers | 09:53 |

| kosmic | what is the pulsaudio disable switch | 09:54 |
| JasseT | mo0nykit: yes but you see that's why we love using linux, it never quite perfectly works :) | 09:54 |

| mo0nykit | JasseT: haha yeah quite true :) are you in recovery mode yet? | 09:55 |
| lab | mo0nykit: please, thrust on me. they are not valid instructions | 09:55 |
| jontore | mo0nykit: booted up and ready to go :) | 09:55 |
| mo0nykit | JasseT: oops.. I meant that for jontore :P sorry.. J-- nicknames.. hehe.. | 09:56 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: look for the xfix option. Choose that. It will automatically configure your xorg.conf (GUI configuration file) to the failsafe version | 09:56 |
| hackmygibsons | ? | 09:57 |
| jontore | mo0nykit: and then choose resume ? I actually tried this earlier, no sucess | 09:57 |
| firdau5 | hi jontore | 09:58 |
| firdau5 | just wonder, since when you install the OS? | 09:58 |
| hackmygibsons | anyone know how to get webcam flipped right side up? | 09:59 |
| === saulus is now known as SauLus | ||
| firdau5 | any important data there? | 09:59 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: oh.. XD. I think I'm at a brick wall. I've had experience with Nvidia. Just tried to help, it could be related.. | 09:59 |
| azlon | i ran "sudo ln -sf /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server /etc/init.d/dhcpd" then tried to run "sudo dhcpd restart" and it returned "sudo: dhcpd: command not found"... why would this be? | 10:00 |
| jontore | firdau5: a couple of months ago, I guess there is not too much important data there most of it is in my git repo | 10:00 |
| harisund | azlon: I think it is something like sudo service dhcpd restart | 10:00 |
| firdau5 | jontore : so, earlier the problem not occurs, right? | 10:01 |
| mo0nykit | lab: Did you do this? sudo insmod /lib/modules/`uname -r`/volatile/fglrx.ko (I'm assuming you're using 9.04) | 10:01 |
| jontore | mo0nykit: Thank you anyway, the quickest solution is to reinstall the Os you think | 10:01 |
| azlon | harisund, http://pastebin.com/d73ec59a2 | 10:01 |
| lab | mo0nykit: you don't thrust me | 10:01 |
| lab | :) | 10:01 |
| jontore | firdau5: nope just to day when i fooler around with a new driver and xorg.conf | 10:01 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: np :) yeah that's the quickest one :P | 10:02 |
| harisund | azlon: that I do not know .. can you post the contents or the last few lines of syslog? | 10:02 |
| azlon | harisund, of dmesg? | 10:02 |
| harisund | no syslog .. I think it's somewhere in /var/log/syslog or something like that | 10:02 |
| mo0nykit | jontore: some advice: After a fresh install AND update, look at System --> Administration --> Hardware Drivers. That's the first place to go :) | 10:02 |
| firdau5 | I got same problem before, when I wrongly configure the menu.lst | 10:03 |
| mo0nykit | lab: It would be helpful to establish at what point you are in your trouble :) so we'll know where we can start | 10:03 |
| azlon | harisund, this is the last few lines of my dmesg: http://pastebin.com/d3ed43e59 | 10:03 |
| firdau5 | I solved it by reinstalling the OS.. | 10:04 |
| lab | mo0nykit: it's very simple. As said before, the guide is nonsense. so, there's no "at what point". I have to start from a valid guide | 10:04 |
| harisund | azlon: dmesg wont help, I need the last few lines of /var/log/syslog .. can you check if that file exists? | 10:04 |
| lab | from scratch | 10:04 |
| lab | mo0nykit: the guide firstly gives instructions and soon after says "these instructions are not valid" (!!!!!!!!). Then it shows a link with a horrible procedure | 10:05 |
| azlon | harisund, http://pastebin.com/d489c67c6 | 10:06 |
| mo0nykit | lab: So you're willing to reinstall? That could be the easiest way to get out of trouble. Then after a fresh install AND update, take a look at System --> Administration --> Hardware Drivers. That's the first place to go :) | 10:06 |
| lab | mo0nykit: you think I'm a dummy idiot | 10:06 |
| harisund | azlon: have you setup a DHCP server before? | 10:06 |
| harisund | azlon: you have not setup the DHCP server correctly | 10:06 |
| root | hi | 10:06 |
| azlon | harisund, no, i am following the tutorial on http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty#Internet_connection_sharing_.28DHCP_server.29 | 10:06 |
| === root is now known as Guest21816 | ||
| mo0nykit | lab: Yeah indeed. Some of the community wikis are out-of-date and potentially dangerous. So what I'd do is gather information from lots of HOWTO's and make my own procedure. | 10:07 |
| lab | mo0nykit: it's really fair that the wiki is shitty. I asked for something else, therefore. | 10:08 |
| harisund | azlon: ugh I hate "tutorials" like that which blindly tell you to follow a few instructions, and the user then has absolutely no clue what he is doing and .. let me see, give me a few minutes | 10:08 |
| mo0nykit | lab: You want help or not? All kinds of help offered in the Ubuntu community are preferred to be delivered in "newbie" form. To benefit everyone | 10:08 |
| prince_jammys | ATI has a a wiki too, with some directions for ubuntu. | 10:08 |
| lab | mo0nykit: I want help, but you can't give me help. it's a really specific problem that requires experience on it. You don't have it | 10:09 |
| lab | this is not a "newbie" help. | 10:09 |
| lanoxx | when i go to places->bookmarks->myfolder then dolphin opens instead of nautilus | 10:10 |

| booty_kernel | ubantards | 10:11 |
| mo0nykit | lab: you don't deserve any help if you don't appreciate ANY help offered | 10:11 |
| harisund | azlon: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/home-router-howto.xml Check this out. This is Gentoo's documentation, so obviously top notch .. you should find this clearer, well written and easier to follow | 10:11 |
| lab | mo0nykit: I give help only when I can. Otherewise I would make other people wasting their time. | 10:12 |
| mo0nykit | lab: Leads could be helpful at least | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | lanoxx: are you using kde? | 10:12 |
| booty_kernel | mount probelm ....... | 10:12 |
| azlon | harisund, thanks, should i uninstall dhcpd-server? | 10:12 |
| booty_kernel | mount ? | 10:12 |
| sahilsk | h | 10:12 |
| harisund | azlon: yes, if all you are doing is sharing one computer's internt to a few other computers, you can use dnsmasq .. | 10:12 |
| sahilsk | *hi | 10:12 |
| harisund | azlon: it integrates DHCP and DNS, making it all the more easier | 10:12 |
| mo0nykit | lab: Leads that could help you know what keywords to Google | 10:12 |
| azlon | harisund, what is the command to remove? sudo apt-get remove dhcpd-server? | 10:13 |
| lab | mo0nykit: as said at the beginning, I already googled | 10:13 |
| harisund | yeah that should do it | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: also makes web browsing a little faster due to dns succeeding on the local system | 10:13 |
| booty_kernel | :) | 10:13 |
| harisund | azlon: or you can leave it in and just not started it won't affect you unless you need to reclaim that space | 10:13 |
| azlon | thanks | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: makes dns to 0ms rater than 32ms | 10:14 |
| lab | (PLEASE ANSWER ONLY IF YOU KNOW THE PROBLEM AND HAVE A MINIMUM EXPERIENCE ON IT) hi. I'm trying to install ATI drivers on jaunty 9.04. I followed these instructions and they were a disaster: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI . I googled and I didn't find anything useful. Any suggestion? All worked fine for 8.10, but with 9.04 these drivers are a nightmare..... | 10:14 |
| azlon | ActionParsnip, aahh... nice | 10:14 |
| prince_jammys | answer what? | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: http://sandeep.co.in/2008/01/09/dnsmasq-browse-the-web-faster/ | 10:15 |
| infidel2s | my screensaver is set to go off after 8 min of inactivity and lock the screen but it's not going off anymore. any idea why it'd stop? | 10:15 |
| mo0nykit | lab: have a look at ATI's official site. They probably have the answer | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: you didnt say what ATi card you are installing | 10:15 |
| harisund | infidel2s: check if the screensaver is running .. are you familiar with the terminal ? You could do "ps ax | grep screensaver" | 10:15 |
| lab | mo0nykit: already done. | 10:15 |
| prince_jammys | i can't answer, because you don't have the MINIMUM EXPERIENCE required to ask a detailed question. | 10:16 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: it's a radeon X... card | 10:16 |
| mo0nykit | prince_jammys: I second the motion | 10:16 |
| lab | prince_jammys: shut up your ass | 10:16 |
| jerknextdoor | i am running 9.04 on a thinkpad r51 and have a problem with the volume jumping. the volume keys only change the hardware volume and not the software volume and because of this the osd also doenst work. | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: there are many in that range, again you have given little detail | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: lspci | grep -i vga | 10:16 |
| prince_jammys | lab: learn to ask questions, and welcome to /ignore. | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: without that, nobody can advise properly | 10:16 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: I can't do it now. I'm re-installing the OS | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: in live desktop? | 10:17 |
| booty_kernel | hello ubantrads | 10:17 |
| hydester | any know of a USB wifi device that works in monitor mode? | 10:17 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: anyway, it's a common X series card. fully supported in ubuntu 8.10 | 10:17 |
| indus | lab: please state the exact problem, but if you have issues i suggest you try with envyng-gtk from synaptic | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: doesnt matter, still need the model for precise support | 10:17 |
| lanoxx | ActionParsnip, no gnome | 10:17 |
| lab | indus: already tried with envyng | 10:17 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: no. It doesn't matter the model. The most important thing now is finding a MINIMUM support for ATI+jaunty | 10:18 |
| === yufei_ is now known as yufei | ||
| indus | lab: you didnt state whether you are using the open source radeon driver or the fglrx one | 10:18 |
| lab | indus: fglrx | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: it is, thats why when you websearch for uides the exact card is critical to gettikng exact guides | 10:18 |
| lab | better: i tried to install it, but there's no way, neither a procedure to follow | 10:19 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: again. no, no, no, no and no. | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | lanoxx: do you use the dolphin file browser anymore? | 10:19 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: I need a basic guid for jaunty+ati | 10:19 |
| lab | nothing else | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: if you can get me the card i'll get you a guide | 10:20 |
| booty_kernel | indus bhia namaste | 10:20 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: basic guide is !ati | 10:20 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: | 10:20 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: if you get the card model then i can advise | 10:20 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: I'll give it to you as soon as the OS is ready | 10:20 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: during the installer you can still press alt+f2 (assuming you are using the desktop live cd) and run a terminal | 10:20 |
| ActionParsnip | it wont break anything | 10:21 |

| kbp | someone sold GIMP on eBay for $5 and my uncle didnt know GIMP is free so he bought it. :) | 10:21 |

| shurikn | i looking for a program, that modifies screenshots with arcs oder something like that. for example making a user guide | 10:24 |
| lab | I suspect there's a bug in jaunty, for these drivers | 10:25 |
| kbp | ActionParsnip: really? I thought it's illegal when selling a free/gnu software. If it's legal then someone just copy and sell Ubuntu CD and make profit... not fair for the buyers | 10:26 |
| harisund | kbp i am pretty sure you are free to burn Ubuntu CDs and sell them for a price | 10:26 |
| glick | how do i remove packages and all the packages that they depend on using apt? | 10:26 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: http://swiss.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1287329 | 10:26 |
| harisund | kbp what you will be doing is charging them for the "CD and the act of putting it on the CD" , but not for Ubuntu itself | 10:27 |
| Jyxt | well...the software itself might be licenced under GNU etc | 10:27 |
| Jyxt | but the CD itself is not licenced..w.hats to stop you from burning CD's and charging $10 for the physical CD? | 10:27 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: this is not an useful link | 10:27 |
| indus | kbp: its very easy to show criminal intent if that is done, technically nothing illegal but morally yes | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: basically you will need to use the open driver, so it kinda is | 10:27 |
| azlon | harisund, im following that tutorial and it is telling me to edit /etc/conf.d/net and setup my eth0 but /etc/conf.d/net doesn't exist. i tried to sudo touch it but it didnt work. i am already connected to the lan via network manager, can i just set those same settings in network manager? | 10:28 |
| indus | $10 for a cd yea right | 10:28 |
| ActionParsnip | kbp: technicaly he's not selling the software (whic is illegal as its not the dudes property) he can charge for a usb stick and postage and put all manner of data on the stick that your dad expects but is not being directly charged for | 10:28 |

| r0ck0 | is there any quality diminishes when using a dvi adapter to svideo? | 10:29 |
| harisund | azlon: yeah that is only if you are setting up your connection through the command line. But your connection is already setup through NetworkManager | 10:29 |
| glick | is it autoremove? | 10:29 |
| ActionParsnip | glick: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 10:29 |
| azlon | harisund, thanks | 10:29 |
| mechdave | glick, then sometimes sudo apt-get autoremove | 10:29 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: by default jaunty should already use these drivers. | 10:29 |
| harisund | azlon: You can actually ignore the section 3. Hug the WAN (The internet) part | 10:29 |
| mechdave | glick, autoremove will only remove packages that are not being used by anything | 10:30 |
| azlon | harisund, yeah, i browsed through it but decided to skip it. i just dont want to skip something important and cause headaches later | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: possibly, it may default to vesa ut you can define it in xorg.conf as well as resolutions and refresh rates if your monitor does not report what it can do | 10:30 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: as said at the beginning: my question require direct experience on the problem. I appreciate your help, really. But it's unuseful if you don't know how to specifically solve | 10:30 |
| harisund | azlon: yeah and I will be online for a while, let me know if you are able to get it to work | 10:30 |
| azlon | harisund, thanks! | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: if yo want help that specific you will be searching a lifetime | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: it simply wont exist | 10:31 |
| lab | ActionParsnip: not necessarily. because other people could have occoured the same problem | 10:31 |
| lab | my question was addressed to them | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: you are going to have to wrestle with xorg.conf and the open drivers until you get something decent | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: log a bug too | 10:31 |

| lab | indus: and lot of wasted time | 10:32 |
| azlon | im using Ubuntu 9.04 but the tutorial uses emerge | 10:32 |

| azlon | ah, ok | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | lab: supports your chip | 10:33 |
| lab | the WORST thing is following instructions of people that did not encountered the problem | 10:33 |
| indus | lab: you didnt even state your model, you didnt say what teh error is | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: x1200 | 10:33 |
| indus | how will anyone here know your problem | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: ati consider it legacy now | 10:33 |
| harisund | azlon: is eth1 your internet connection too? | 10:33 |
| indus | aah huhuh x1200 its legacy baby | 10:33 |
| lab | indus: I specified that there's no way to START to install the driver... please don't bother | 10:33 |
| indus | only the open source driver will work now | 10:33 |
| azlon | harisund, eth1 is my LAN, ppp0 is my internet | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: basically because its old ati drop it like its something contagious, ati suck | 10:34 |
| harisund | azlon: ah ok then ppp0 will be your "WAN" everywhere .. though I guess you already got that | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: but people buy their shoddy wares, go figure | 10:34 |
| frack | Okay, this is aggrevating... Running 9.04 and even using the uni/multiverse repos, bitchx is still invisible | 10:34 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: they dont suck, | 10:34 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: superb cards, its a linux poiunt of view | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | i'd say they do lots | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: i'd always buy nvidia, even in a windows system | 10:35 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: their drivers are as abad as ati now | 10:35 |

| ActionParsnip | boknoy: have you read the reinstall grunb factoid? | 10:36 |
| harisund | azlon: Ok, I think that allows you to start dnsmasq when you reboot | 10:36 |
| harisund | azlon: i think that should be happening by default on your box | 10:37 |
| boknoy | nope, haven't heard of that | 10:37 |
| azlon | harisund, ok cool | 10:37 |
| boknoy | so you mean to say I need to manually write menu.lst everytime the other linux updates the kernel? | 10:37 |

| sabayonuser | indus yes, and funnily i am connected through a live sabayon cd | 10:41 |
| harisund | azlon: Did you install any DNS server earlier? Like bind? | 10:41 |
| Wazzzaaa | ActionParsnip: no... | 10:41 |
| Wazzzaaa | I can go to there | 10:41 |
| indus | sabayonuser: same , just make surer all is connected | 10:41 |

| indus | sabayonuser: if live cd works, why wont regular install work | 10:42 |
| azlon | mechdave, hold on | 10:42 |
| Wazzzaaa | I know its possible with some kind of awk script, but I don't know if it is possible in some other manner. in combination with du maybe ? | 10:42 |
| harisund | azlon: yes mechdave good call .. try doing /etc/init.d/dnsmasq stop and then start again or sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart | 10:42 |
| azlon | mechdave, how can i check | 10:42 |
| harisund | azlon: you could do ps ax | grep dnsmasq | 10:42 |
| sabayonuser | i am connected to net via live cd of sabayon not ubuntu | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Wazzzaaa: yeah that and have a variable with a running total, adding the du output colomn for the size to the total | 10:42 |
| sabayonuser | ubuntu live or installed , nothing works | 10:43 |
| harisund | azlon: there are ways to check what application is listening on what port but that skips me right now.. something like netstat or somethign | 10:43 |
| azlon | harisund, same error when i restart | 10:43 |
| mechdave | harisund, azlon or you could do this --> sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart | 10:43 |
| azlon | mechdave, dnsmasq: failed to create listening socket: Address already in use | 10:43 |
| jkka | hi. /set theme darkstyle.theme | 10:43 |
| harisund | mechdave: he just tried that and same thing happened .. what I am thinking of is trying to figure out which address is in use | 10:43 |
| mechdave | azlon, what port is dnsmasq configured on? | 10:44 |
| Wazzzaaa | thank you for now ActionParsnip. | 10:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Wazzzaaa: #bash will help lots | 10:44 |
| harisund | azlon: dhcp3-server is fully stopped and removed right? ps ax | grep dhcp reveals anything? | 10:44 |
| sabayonuser | in sabayon all i need to input is eth add , ip add subnet nmask , default gateway and dns , and lo i am connected to net even through a live cd, but cant do the same in ubuntu ,,why???? | 10:44 |
| Wazzzaaa | yeah | 10:44 |
| mechdave | azlon, you could nmap your box to find all open/listening ports | 10:45 |
| azlon | harisund, http://pastebin.com/d1b6feabf | 10:45 |
| azlon | mechdave, install nmap now | 10:45 |

| marcriera | hello everybody. does anyone know why karmic koala release candidate is shipped with a vanilla kernel? | 10:46 |
| marcriera | tahnks | 10:46 |
| mechdave | marcriera, you could try in #ubuntu+1 | 10:47 |
| indus | sabayonuser: you have any passowrd for mtnl? | 10:47 |
| marcriera | or, i'll try on ubuntu+1. (is this a kind of users vs developers chanel diference?) | 10:48 |
| sabayonuser | i have the numbe rand password | 10:48 |
| indus | sabayonuser: in sabayon what steps did you do to connect? | 10:48 |
| sabayonuser | pppoeconf says nothing found | 10:48 |
| mechdave | marcriera, not really, just ubuntu+1 handles the development version of ubuntu | 10:49 |
| azlon | harisund, netstat -anlp | grep -w LISTEN | 10:49 |
| harisund | anything on port 53? | 10:49 |
| sabayonuser | clicked a button to make a new connection entered my ip subnet gateway ,mac and dns | 10:49 |
| harisund | azlon: ah thanks I knew there was a netstat | 10:49 |
| azlon | harisund, yeah, 2 things on 53 but it doesnt say the app name | 10:50 |
| azlon | harisund, http://pastebin.com/d6f374daf | 10:50 |
| harisund | azlon: damn we need to find out what those apps are.. because dnsmasq tries to listen on port 53 as well | 10:50 |
| azlon | harisund, looks like bind is installed... how can i kill the process? | 10:51 |
| harisund | ah thought as much | 10:52 |
| harisund | ps ax | grep bind? | 10:52 |
| lab | (PLEASE ANSWER ONLY IF YOU KNOW THE PROBLEM AND HAVE A MINIMUM EXPERIENCE ON IT) hi. I'm trying to install ATI drivers on jaunty 9.04. I followed these instructions and they were a disaster: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI . I googled and I didn't find anything useful. Any suggestion? All worked fine for 8.10, but with 9.04 these drivers are a nightmare..... | 10:52 |
| harisund | azlon I am guessing bind would have got installed as a part of dhcp3-server or something like that. Or there might be a service in /etc/init.d/ .. something like /etc/init.d/bind or something like that | 10:52 |
| harisund | lab people here work for free on their own time. If you are unable to get help right now, I would suggest posting on the forums or perhaps coming back at another time | 10:53 |
| marcriera | mechdave: thanks. they made me go to #ubuntu-kernel . i didn't realise that was so evident. :) thanks | 10:53 |
| harisund | her marcriera quick question | 10:53 |
| mechdave | marcriera, no worries | 10:53 |
| iceroot | how to use cp -r without .svn? | 10:53 |
| mechdave | harisund, azlon port 53 is used for DNS only according to IANA | 10:54 |

| harisund | mechdave yes, dnsmasq provides dns services too, so if there is another software running that provides dns service, there's a clash which is why dnsmasq is not able to start | 10:54 |
| azlon | harisund, should i just uninstall bind? | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip | mechdave: and also rfc 1035: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1035.html | 10:55 |
| harisund | azlon: yeah i am pretty sure you should be fine uninstalling bind. But in any case, is it a stoppable service in /etc/init.d/? | 10:55 |
| azlon | harisund, mechdave, i was reading this page and it says to just reconfigure bind, but i dont think i need bind do i? http://tjworld.net/wiki/Linux/DnsMasqAddressAlreadyInUse | 10:55 |
| harisund | azlon: I am not in front of a Ubuntu box right now, can anyone tell if bind gets installed by default on Ubuntu or is it safe to remove? | 10:55 |
| azlon | harisund, i tried sudo /etc/init.d/bind stop and it didnt work | 10:55 |
| harisund | azlon: maybe it is not bind, could it be named? | 10:55 |
| indus | harisund: safe to remove | 10:56 |
| harisund | k azlon go ahead and remove, and if your machine breaks down say it's all indus fault :) | 10:56 |
| azlon | harisund, removed | 10:56 |
| azlon | harisund, now let me try to start dnsmasq again | 10:56 |
| harisund | anyway thanks indus .. and azlon what named does, dnsmasq does too so it should be safe to remove it | 10:56 |
| azlon | harisund, still the same error, should i restart? | 10:57 |
| sabayonuser | i think every one here are too busy anser my question :-) | 10:57 |
| indus | i just answered question as to whether its part of default install and its obviously not, its used to set up DNS etc, bind is a common software | 10:57 |
| harisund | do the netstat thing again and see 53 is still used? (On Linux, as far as possible I try not to use the Windows solution of restarting) | 10:57 |
| harisund | thanks indus that's what I wanted to know :) | 10:58 |
| grawity | sabayonuser: Either that, or no one knows the answer. | 10:58 |
| iceroot | ActionParsnip: flash is working better (but not perfect) on amd64 :) | 10:58 |
| indus | harisund: but maybe ubuntu server edition it is installed by default | 10:58 |
| harisund | indus: logical . yeah .. | 10:58 |
| indus | other than this info, iam a supernoob of networking | 10:59 |
| azlon | harisund, yeah, 53 is still used on localhost and 94.128.13.252 | 10:59 |
| mechdave | harisund, azlon is bind running as named? Have a look in /etc/init.d/ for named | 10:59 |

| azlon | mechdave, harisund, ah crap, its running as bind9 | 11:00 |
| harisund | azlon: ah ok :) | 11:00 |
| azlon | harisund, i did sudo apt-get remove bind | 11:00 |
| albasheers | I tried ffmped it is giving me codec error | 11:00 |
| mechdave | azlon, there you go... just stop bind for now | 11:00 |
| harisund | mechdave: azlon: i think it used to be called named or something .. not sure .. I guess it's bind9 now | 11:00 |
| azlon | how do i stop again? sudo /etc/init.d/bind9 stop? | 11:00 |
| sabayonuser | gravity either what??? | 11:00 |
| indus | no the service is called named | 11:00 |
| mechdave | harisund, azlon I have not played with it for long time :) | 11:01 |
| indus | software is bind | 11:01 |
| harisund | azlon: yes that might work, try it .. you have to find the service name .. do you see anything with bind9 or bind or named? | 11:01 |
| mechdave | azlon, Yep that is correct | 11:01 |

| azlon | thanks guys | 11:02 |
| harisund | ha good luck man ! ;) | 11:02 |
| indus | just to be clear the berkeley internet name daemon is also called named , on redhat you start with the named command | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | lanoxx: is the library named? | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | albasheers: there is no best anything in life. | 11:04 |
| mechdave | azlon, harisund I recommend you just remove the startup of bind9 and not bind9 itself... to stop it starting on boot do this --> sudo update-rc.d -f bind9 remove | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | albasheers: best is anopinion and is not concrete | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | an opinion* | 11:05 |
| indus | mechdave: no gui? also hello | 11:05 |
| harisund | azlon: yeah follow mechdave's advice, you don't really need to "uninstall" per se, you just need the service stopped | 11:05 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: windows xp is best | 11:05 |
| mechdave | G'day indus How is it going? | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: thats your opinion, millions would agree, millions would disagree, doesnt make it any truer than me saying something else is best :) | 11:06 |
| indus | mechdave: hi all good, long time , how r things | 11:06 |
| azlon | harisund, already removed, but i also removed from startups so i dont get errors later | 11:06 |
| harisund | azlon: k | 11:06 |
| azlon | harisund, i think i have a new problem though, when i have my eth1 and my ppp0 enabled my internet doesnt work (this is from before i started the tutorial). when i disable eth1 my internet works | 11:07 |
| azlon | harisund, i am going to test it again, i might have to reconnect | 11:07 |
| mechdave | indus, you are trying to start a war? :) | 11:07 |
| harisund | azlon: ok wait let's just make sure we are going over this correctly | 11:07 |
| indus | mechdave: thats old fashioned | 11:07 |
| azlon | harisund, ok | 11:07 |
| darq | hello. I got some questions regarding ubuntu. I have written an application in java and i got an *.jar.. How to deploy it on Ubuntu/Linux ? which folder? on windows xp there are java exe wrappers , on Mac OS X there is the Application Bulder with wich i can turn a *jar into an app .. What to do in Linux.. ? thnx in advance | 11:07 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: millions are on the xp side btw :) very few linux users aha :D | 11:08 |
| mechdave | azlon, you may have a problem with route | 11:08 |
| harisund | azlon: you have a computer with 2 network interfaces, one ppp0 and one eth0, and I am guessing eth0 is "unused" and ppp0 is used to connect to the internet with NetworkManager, right? | 11:08 |
| mechdave | darq, you need to install the sun java runtime libraries | 11:08 |
| azlon | harisund, right, ppp0 is WAN and eth1 is LAN | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: doesnt make it truer, just means more are in agreement. For some people, even living isnt best | 11:08 |
| harisund | harisund: and without dnsmasq running the internet is fine, right? | 11:08 |
| mechdave | harisund, azlon make sure default route is pointing to ppp0 | 11:09 |
| darq | mechdave: obviously:) but my questuon was the hole deployment process of java applications on linux | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: best is a comparison of a product to your own needs, everyones needs differ so there will never be an outright best, its a very immature ideology to bandy round (I feel) | 11:09 |
| azlon | harisund, uhmm... dnsmasq is running now and the internet is fine, but i did "sudo ifconfig eth1 down" earlier so i could get on here and try to get ics working | 11:09 |
| prince_jammys | well, ubuntu is by far the best of the distros that are named after South African words. | 11:10 |
| harisund | azlon: it might have something to do with what mechdave said, the route thing. How are you setting up eth1? Tthe way it says in the tutorial? static IP ? | 11:10 |
| azlon | mechdave, harisund, this is my route (while eth1 is down) http://pastebin.com/d14c1f7f4 | 11:10 |
| mechdave | darq, I have just always installed java and then used javac whatever.jar | 11:10 |
| indus | iam immature its true | 11:10 |
| harisund | azlon: that is good, only ppp0 should be on your route since that is what you are using to get to the internet .. how are you setting up eth1? | 11:11 |
| azlon | harisund, correct, eth1 is static to 192.168.0.1 with subnet of 255.255.255.0 and a DNS of 192.168.0.1 | 11:11 |
| mechdave | azlon, harisund and when eth1 is up? | 11:11 |
| indus | anyways | 11:11 |
| azlon | mechdave, let me turn eth1 back up... i will have to reconnect | 11:11 |
| azlon | brb | 11:11 |
| darq | mechdave: ??? javac is the compiler you mean java -jar whatever.jar | 11:11 |
| mechdave | darq, they may have changed it, my java is 9 years old | 11:12 |

| === ccooke_ is now known as ccooke | ||
| azlon | mechdave, harisund, ok... here is my route with eth1 down, then i turned it on and did ifconfig, then a route, then turned eth1 off: http://pastebin.com/d50103644 | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | lanoxx: did you by any chance start with kubuntu and then install gnome? | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | albasheers: ffmpeg -i inputfilenameheredude.flv -ab 56 -ar 22050 -b 500 -s 320x240 -vcodec xvid -acodec mp3 video.avi | 11:15 |
| lanoxx | ActionParsnip, no i have ubuntu installed and i never installed kubuntu or kubuntu-desktop, i only installed kile recently which is a kde app because i need it for LaTeX | 11:16 |
| azlon | harisund, also, for some reason my IP didn't update to 192.168.0.1 but i will fix that | 11:16 |
| harisund | azlon: ok so basically doing "sudo ifconfig eth1 up" makes some changes that we don't want to be made. | 11:16 |
| harisund | azlon: that could be a part of the problem - try setting the IP when you do ifconfig | 11:17 |
| mechdave | azlon, harisund line 50 should read --> default 10.64.64.64 255.255.255.255 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 | 11:17 |
| harisund | azlon: something like sudo ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up | 11:18 |
| lanoxx | ActionParsnip, where is the handler for directories in gnome? | 11:18 |
| azlon | harisund, ok i updated the IP | 11:18 |
| mechdave | azlon, harisund and it should be UH and not UG | 11:18 |
| lanoxx | ActionParsnip, is it in ~/.somegnomefolder or somewhere in /etc/... | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | lanoxx: if you go into /usr/share/applications/ and read the files that have folder-handler in the name, you can see which relates to dolphin and edit it | 11:19 |
| harisund | azlon: what do you mean "updated the IP"? How did you do that? | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | lanoxx: make sure /usr/share/applications/nautilus-folder-handler.desktop looks ok | 11:19 |
| albasheers | ActionParsnip: I am the following code after executing the command you gave me http://imagebin.org/67887 | 11:19 |
| mechdave | azlon, harisund the default route is up the put | 11:19 |
| azlon | harisund, i did sudo ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.1 and it reenabled eth1 and set the ip to 192.168.0.1, but then i had to turn it off again to get back in the chat | 11:20 |

| hoo-hah | hi guys. I've been trying out non-gnome desktop recently. I was told to try out openbox, and to configure my .gtkrc-2.0 manually | 11:30 |
| azlon | mechdave, that was with a sudo | 11:30 |
| hoo-hah | now, when I switch back to gnome, I have to move that file elsewhere so as not to confuse gnome settings | 11:30 |
| hoo-hah | is there a way to make gnome play nice with it? | 11:30 |

| harisund | Neremor: you use the appropriate header file, and when compiling link the corresponding library with the -l option if you are using gcc etc | 11:31 |
| azlon | mechdave, im trying to read the man but im pretty sure i understand every-other word... | 11:31 |

| azlon | mechdave, muahahaha, got it! | 11:38 |
| teragram | danielisme: When it's not working, it detects the network (usually) and tries to connect for a couple of minutes, then pops up the wlan key dialog | 11:38 |
| mechdave | azlon, awesome, what was the command? | 11:38 |
| azlon | mechdave, what is the gw 10.64.64.64 represent? because i took out the gw and it worked | 11:38 |
| hoo-hah | grawity: cool, thanks. The path I found was ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/interface | 11:38 |
| azlon | mechdave, "sudo route add default ppp0" | 11:39 |
| hoo-hah | grawity: and the filename is %gconf.xml | 11:39 |
| mechdave | azlon, gw = gateway | 11:39 |
| azlon | mechdave, well i say it worked but i dont really know yet... i can just have eth1 and ppp0 up and i can access the internet, now we will see if i can share it | 11:39 |
| teragram | danielisme: is there any way I can check the hardware? (I scrubbed windows before I realised this was happening, so I don't know if it's Ubuntu specific) | 11:39 |
| nalcomis | also, I don't have an xorg.conf file and can't save my x settings. Has anyone dealt with this? I have seen numerous posts on the Internet, but no solution | 11:40 |
| azlon | mechdave, gw is gateway, but my local IP on this machine is 192.168.0.1 so i was putting "gw 192.168.0.1" not "gw 10.64.64.64" | 11:40 |

| shubbar | for a file server with raid5, do I need an extra harddisk for booting or can i boot from the raid5 disks? | 12:04 |
| Leela | DarkMasterHalo, it asks for the account password and not for the root password. so e.g. I can't use synaptic | 12:04 |
| mechdave | danwagon, then set up the printers from System -> Administration -> Printing | 12:05 |
| grawity | hedkandi: 'd' - directory. Then, the first group 'rwx' is for the owner - read, write, and execute permissions. The next 'rwx' is for the assigned group. Third - 'rwt' - read, write, execute, plus the "sticky bit". | 12:05 |
| DarkMasterHalo | Leela: You can use your own password. On Ubuntu, they replaced the root account with a deep integration of sudo | 12:05 |
| grawity | Wouldn't say "replaced". | 12:05 |

| azlon | hodl on | 12:22 |
| mechdave | azlon, I would just enter the DNS addresses straight into the client for now | 12:22 |
| mechdave | azlon, much simpler | 12:22 |
| azlon | mechdave, ok, hold on | 12:22 |
| pfctdayelise_ | I am trying to install a package called aegis. I can see at packages.ubuntu.com it is available for dapper, intrepid, jaunty, karmic. would there be a reason it is not available for hardy? | 12:24 |
| azlon | mechdave, still nothing on the ubuntu machine, let me try the windows machine | 12:24 |
| mechdave | azlon, and you can ping the server? | 12:24 |
| azlon | mechdave, nevermind, it is working on the ubuntu machine, just had to give it a minute | 12:24 |
| azlon | mechdave, sweet! | 12:24 |
| apps | :D | 12:24 |
| azlon | mechdave, now i just need to make this server a dns server.. right? | 12:25 |
| mechdave | azlon, Ok now what we do is use dhcp to distribute ip addresses and dns info | 12:25 |
| azlon | mechdave, i'm ok with using static ip addresses | 12:27 |
| ActionParsnip1 | yo yo yo | 12:27 |
| mechdave | azlon, ok then all you do is add your ISP's DNS server addresses to the DNS part of the client computer networking serup | 12:28 |
| mechdave | azlon, then all is done :) | 12:28 |
| azlon | mechdave, awesome! can i use the server's ip as the DNS? | 12:28 |
| mechdave | azlon, later you can add a proxy and QoS if you want | 12:28 |
| meowbang | hi all i am getting this message on startup. users $home.dmrc file is being ignored. this prevents the default session from being saved. files should be owned by user and have 644 permissions | 12:29 |
| mechdave | azlon, no, you don't have any DNS resolver on your machine, besides the DNS addresses for your ISP is an external address so NAT will just rout them to the internet | 12:30 |
| azlon | cool! thanks! | 12:30 |
| azlon | mechdave, one more question... how can i get the DNS for my ISP? i thought it would be in ifconfig but i dont see it | 12:31 |
| mechdave | azlon, it will be in /etc/resolv.conf | 12:31 |
| meowbang | hi all i am getting this message on startup. users $home.dmrc file is being ignored. this prevents the default session from being saved. files should be owned by user and have 644 permissions | 12:31 |

| Ademan | KingOverload: that's crap, did they add something? or just try and screw with third party clients? | 13:25 |
| grawity | Ademan: Yahoo changed just a little something, and Pidgin got locked out. Of course, the devs fixed that (as always), but the update is not in Jaunty's repos. | 13:25 |

| dj9404 | freenonde | 13:47 |
| erika2009 | its installed | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | allan8904: the various vga-tv adaptors ive seen dont need drivers.. You might have to set your moniotr/res to somthing the adaptor can handle. It may not be able to convert all the res's | 13:47 |
| indus | erika2009: how do you know your webcam is not working? | 13:48 |
| erika2009 | it works! | 13:48 |
| erika2009 | :) | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | erika2009: wow :) | 13:48 |
| indus | late comment | 13:48 |
| indus | :D | 13:48 |
| erika2009 | lets see if i can webcam online.. :) | 13:48 |
| erika2009 | doesnt work online | 13:49 |
| erika2009 | only with cheese application | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | erika2009: learn to give more details. other then 'dosent work' | 13:49 |
| erika2009 | like with facebook in windows i can make a video but in linux the cam only works with cheese | 13:49 |
| indus | erika2009: ya it wont work in facebook | 13:49 |
| indus | erika2009: nor myspave | 13:50 |
| indus | erika2009: at least not for me | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | erika2009: Flash webcam support i belive dosent work in linux. thats not a linux issue. I think.... | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Theres other ways to chat then Facebook and web sites. :) | 13:50 |
| allan8904 | Dr_Willis: ah this isnt one of the "box" ones, this literally is a VGA adaptor with3 RCA cables comgni out of it and it says that you need manufacturer drivers supporting TVOUT through VGA | 13:50 |
| erUSUL | erika2009: when you right click on a flash element in a webpage a menu for flash appears you can choose configure there and a dialog appears with a tab for configuring the webcam. i dunno if that works becouse i do not have a webcam | 13:51 |
| indus | Dr_Willis: interesting | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | allan8904: 3 rca cables? Hmm.. are 2 of those audio> or are You sure its not 3 'video' outs for the different colors. .like you see on some tv's | 13:52 |
| tazg | indus: sadly, still the same error message: "Error: Wrong architecture 'i386'" Grrrrr | 13:52 |
| indus | tazg: ok then try the 64 bit | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | whatever they call those things.. my fancy DVD player has the 3 connectors.. | 13:52 |
| allan8904 | Dr_Willis: sorry yeah its the one with the yellow green and blue | 13:52 |
| allan8904 | Dr_Willis: all video | 13:52 |
| indus | tazg: even though ur system says its 32 bit os | 13:52 |
| tazg | indus: will try grrrrr | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | allan8904: right. :) thats not the same as normal rca video out. or s-video | 13:52 |
| indus | erUSUL: thats not how facebook works, it has a button which can be clicked to start webcam record, but in linux it wont find it | 13:53 |
| Dr_Willis | allan8904: when in doubt check google for that gizmo+linux see if others have used it. | 13:53 |
| erUSUL | indus: maybe facebook uses java not flash? it uses it for other things too | 13:53 |
| allan8904 | Dr_Willis ok thanks | 13:53 |
| grawity | erUSUL: It uses Flash. | 13:54 |
| indus | erUSUL: no idea about that, but this feature wont work on facebook or myspace | 13:54 |
| indus | erUSUL: in windows, it just grabs your webcam and starts recording | 13:54 |
| indus | erUSUL: so i presume you dont use social networking sites :) | 13:54 |
| erUSUL | ok just shoting in the dark; all i see in the tab i mention is "no webcam found" bcouse i do not have any ;) | 13:54 |
| indus | erUSUL: it says that even if you have one | 13:55 |
| tazg | indus: )o; Not working "Error: Wrong architecture 'amd64'! | 13:55 |

| === raidO is now known as raid0 | ||
| asus901 | OerHeks, I say that... the installation ubuntu make with SATA AHCI mode ON and SATA IDE mode OFF. | 14:36 |
| uberspaced | JonathanEllis: also, does mount -a show any errors? | 14:36 |
| OerHeks | asus901 : that doesn't work, istalling you said: so try again, with noacpi option as kernel boot mode | 14:37 |
| sheldonh | geirha: thanks. someone on #kvm has explained the shift in numbering. kvm-XX has become qemu-kvm-0.X.Y :) | 14:37 |
| JonathanEllis | uberspaced: I have it mounted as /home/<username>/extraspace | 14:37 |

| uberspaced | uh, ok. and the device, under gnome or whatever still shows up on the desktop? | 14:37 |
| tarzan | hi. since kernel 2.3.30 (jaunty) / 2.3.31 my mouse cursor stops reacting all the time when the mouse is not moved for a few seconds. About a second after i move i again the curser reacts to my movements. any ideas? | 14:38 |
| uberspaced | krey: what type of device? | 14:38 |
| krey | hdd | 14:38 |
| asus901 | OerHeks, donesn't work the start. When go to start after bar of ubuntu go to black screen... | 14:38 |
| JonathanEllis | uberspaced: Mount -a does not show errors | 14:38 |
| uberspaced | krey: is it usb or IDE? | 14:38 |
| krey | usb | 14:38 |
| krey | that's why i need it mapped | 14:38 |
| d65100 | Hi, all, anyone familiar with Ankermann computers, just about to buy one, wondered how Ubuntu fairs on them? | 14:38 |
| StaRetji | Hi, can someone help me upgrading the kernel on usb stick live system. I can do apt-get install almost everything, but can't compile the kernel, and can't do dist-upgrade or upgrade. There must be a way to change kernel somehow. Thx!!! | 14:39 |
| uberspaced | JonathanEllis: then your question is more like "Why does gnome still put stupid icons on my desktop for removable devices that are already mounted" | 14:39 |
| uberspaced | and I have no idea./ | 14:39 |
| asus901 | OerHeks, but i push sata ide mode start well done and go to desktop ubuntu | 14:39 |
| uberspaced | krey: another handy trick: watch "ls /dev |grep sd" | 14:39 |
| uberspaced | you can also specify mount points by file system id. | 14:39 |
| d65100 | I love icons | 14:39 |
| uberspaced | I forget what specific file maps usb ids to dev IDS | 14:39 |
| JonathanEllis | uberspaced: Actually its not a removable device anyway. It is a partition on my primary hard drive | 14:39 |
| krey | why would that help me? | 14:39 |
| d65100 | Ankerman pc's anyone? | 14:39 |
| geekbuntu | has anyone found anything like timevault/flyback that can do real time backups in jaunty/karmic? | 14:40 |
| OerHeks | asus901: that is normal, if you installed in IDE mode, did you try to re-install in AHCI mode ? you cannot change modes after install | 14:40 |
| asus901 | OerHeks, in bios SATA AHCI and I install ubuntu. ALL Fine. But in the reboot, don't start. After intallation push ide mode start well done. | 14:40 |
| krey | i want the drive to be mapped to the same device, even if i plug it in to a different port | 14:40 |
| asus901 | OerHeks, no no no... I install in sata ahci mode. | 14:41 |
| grawity | krey: Why do you need to do that? | 14:41 |
| OerHeks | oke, clear :-) .. | 14:41 |
| krey | raid | 14:41 |
| OerHeks | did you update yet, in IDE mode ? | 14:41 |
| grawity | krey: Have you tried using UUIDs, for example? | 14:41 |
| krey | yeah, that's what i want to do | 14:41 |
| krey | but i don't know where/how | 14:41 |
| asus901 | OerHeks, I install in SATA AHCI mode but don't start well, only start in ide mode. Why ? this is my question... | 14:41 |
| llutz | krey: use UUID of that disk and create a udev-rule | 14:42 |
| krey | ok | 14:42 |
| grawity | krey: ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ | 14:42 |
| asus901 | yes OerHeks I update and safe-upgrade all in ide mode, no problem.... ubuntu go well | 14:42 |
| grawity | krey: ls -l, actually | 14:42 |
| asus901 | but I like used in Sata ahci mode. | 14:42 |
| krey | so i can access my devices by uuid aswell! | 14:43 |
| krey | this was very helpful | 14:43 |
| krey | thank you | 14:43 |
| grawity | krey: There's also /dev/disk/by-label/, but it isn't as reliable. | 14:44 |

| jacquesdupontd | im searching for a little player like winamp | 15:01 |
| ThDoctor_ | jacquesdupontd: try audacious | 15:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | like beep player but seems to be stopped | 15:02 |
| grawity | Sirisian_: But it's possible to use, for example, 'gpt' (PCs with EFI use it), or the Apple partition table - as long as both the bootloader and kernel support it. | 15:02 |
| nerdy_kid | jacquesdupontd try songbird | 15:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | ThDoctor_, i want something really light | 15:02 |
| vadviktor | Sirisian_, use ext3 or ext4, but almost all others are useful: reiserfs, xfs, ...etc. | 15:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | songbird | 15:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | ok | 15:02 |
| grawity | jacquesdupontd: mpd (with sonata, ario, gmpc) | 15:02 |
| grawity | jacquesdupontd: Also, audacious, muse, quodlibet | 15:02 |

| jacquesdupontd | thx btw everyone to help me so fast :) | 15:04 |
| grawity | nerdy_kid: I guess he meant Winamp 2.x-like. | 15:04 |
| jacquesdupontd | yep | 15:05 |
| jacquesdupontd | grawity is true | 15:05 |
| nerdy_kid | ok then not songbird, even though id still give it a try | 15:05 |
| CrocoJet | I read one site that installing these packages "aptitude install linux-headers-server linux-image-server linux-server" is possible ubuntu 32 bits "see" 4GB. Is good idea to use ? | 15:05 |
| jacquesdupontd | it's not really the fact that it has to be little, but just simple as the first winamp, a bit beautiful and using the less ressources | 15:05 |
| grawity | jacquesdupontd: Yeah, mpd lets you do that. I know these clients, but there are many more: mpc for command-line, ncmpc is terminal-based but has menus, sonata/ario/gmpc are nice in GNOME. (There are clients for Qt (KDE) too, and even web-based interfaces. Ario runs on Windows.) | 15:05 |
| grawity | jacquesdupontd: If you decide that mpd is not for you, then Muse and QuodLibet are small too. | 15:06 |
| pepperjack | jacquesdupontd: i like beep media player (bmp) personally i stil use xmms though :) | 15:06 |
| jacquesdupontd | that's why grawity when you talk about this daemon won't it take too much ressources ? | 15:06 |
| jacquesdupontd | pepperjack, they have been followed | 15:06 |
| grawity | jacquesdupontd: mpd (the daemon itself) is very light. | 15:06 |

| === Whitor is now known as coffee | ||
| JasseT | Wolfcastle: there are some settings in the configuration editor | 16:10 |
| MenZa | hyperstation_: You don't. | 16:10 |
| Bob_Dole | hyperstation_: the OSE doesn't do USB | 16:10 |
| === coffee is now known as Whitor | ||
| JasseT | /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/suspend | 16:10 |
| hyperstation_ | what else that vbox ose cant do?? | 16:11 |
| Bob_Dole | hyperstation_: you'd have to install the closed-source version Sun offers, and even then, it can be a struggle to get it to use a USB drive. (ubuntu -loves- denying it the chance to do so) | 16:11 |
| Bob_Dole | hyperstation_: That's about it. Maybe 3D acceleration, but I'm not sure. I havn't used the OSE in a while. | 16:12 |
| quellhorst | how do I make a package from a .tgz source file? | 16:12 |
| Pici | !newpackage | 16:12 |
| ubottu | The packaging guide is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports | 16:12 |
| hyperstation_ | btw, do u use vbox personal?? is it not free? | 16:13 |
| pradeep | Bob_Dole my sun virtual box does not work but is it possible to make it work | 16:13 |
| Bob_Dole | hyperstation_: I use the closed source version. it's free as in beer, but bot as in speech. | 16:13 |
| Bob_Dole | s/bot/not | 16:13 |
| hyperstation_ | where can i download it? | 16:14 |
| Pici | hyperstation_: virtualbox.org | 16:14 |
| pradeep | does your usb work on vbox | 16:14 |
| hyperstation_ | is it http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.0.8/virtualbox-3.0_3.0.8-53138_Ubuntu_jaunty_i386.deb | 16:14 |

| vieq | I burned the iso on a small medium | 16:15 |
| Bob_Dole | pradeep: I never managed to make the USB thing work. Ubuntu would automatically start using anything I told Vbox to use, before vbox got the chance to take control of it. | 16:15 |
| Bob_Dole | But it works fine on OS X* | 16:15 |
| pradeep | mac u mean | 16:16 |

| grawity | speedhunt3r: The 'finger' command checks the modification time of /var/mail/$USER, where Unix has stored users' mail. | 16:22 |
| speedhunt3r | grawity, it says 'mail' can be found in heriloom-mailx and mailutils what do i install? | 16:23 |

| erikk71 | 450 | 16:33 |
| erikk71 | i realize power pc is old | 16:34 |

| RanDom33 | Bob_Dole, thats why i said didnt want to derail your topic.. lol | 17:02 |
| kenkenay | Hi, i am new | 17:03 |
| RanDom33 | Hello kenkenay | 17:03 |
| kenkenay | hello, RamDom33 | 17:03 |
| kenkenay | i have a trouble (i do not ver well english) | 17:04 |
| pirea_radu | hy all | 17:04 |
| cj_ | why isnt the emacs 23.1 in the official repository? | 17:04 |
| Bob_Dole | Uh, in relation to running browser+flash under WINE, it has a few bugs, and should only be used on very flash heavy sites. Flash 9 apparently helps. (I never managed to get flash 9 to work, it always defaulted to flash 10 after flash 10 had been installed, even after apt-get purging it...not sure how that happened) | 17:04 |
| RanDom33 | Is there a spanish ubuntu channel for kenkenay ? | 17:04 |
| Pici | !es | kenkenay | 17:04 |
| ubottu | kenkenay: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 17:04 |
| RanDom33 | Thank you Pici | 17:05 |
| h34v3n | histo, everyone, i just install ubuntu server edition (first time), is not installed x? | 17:05 |
| kenkenay | como lo hago,? how i do? | 17:05 |
| Bob_Dole | ubuntu server is GUI-less, h34v3n | 17:05 |
| mnaines | kenkenay: Type /join #ubuntu-es | 17:05 |
| h34v3n | ok thanks | 17:05 |
| kenkenay | thank you, gracias | 17:05 |
| Bob_Dole | h34v3n: I'm using ubuntu server edition right now. It's not so bad without a GUI for IRC and managing server stuff. web-browsing is a pain without a GUI, though. | 17:06 |
| mnaines | Bob_Dole: I have thought about getting the server version, but then I started wondering if the desktop version can operate as a Samba server itself | 17:07 |
| h34v3n | yeah i see that is samba service running | 17:07 |
| h34v3n | on a server edition | 17:07 |
| Wolfcastle_ | i can't deactivate screensaver lock when suspending to ram...it's disables in the screensaver settings and I can't find anything in gconf....anyone has any tips? | 17:07 |
| RanDom33 | mnaines, samba can always be installed on any distribution that i am aware of | 17:07 |
| h34v3n | so can i install desktop edition on a server x64? | 17:07 |
| kenkenay | bye | 17:08 |
| Bob_Dole | mnaines: yeah, the desktop can work fine as a server too. the advantage for the server version for me is, the LTS has a longer support cycle. | 17:08 |
| dabukalam | The static DNS entry on my server it 0.0.0.0. If i change it, it changes back on reboot. how can i change it so when it boots it uses x DNS? | 17:08 |
| pepperjack | h34v3n: yes or just sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 17:08 |
| Bob_Dole | mnaines: uh, the server version of the LTS has a longer support cycle than the desktop version of the LTS | 17:08 |
| mnaines | Bob_Dole: The advantage for me in using the Desktop version as a server is the GUI | 17:08 |
| giacomo_c | i'm having a crazy problem with a broken software index and synaptic being unable to remove old kernels and headers | 17:08 |
| giacomo_c | can anyone help me with this? | 17:08 |
| pepperjack | h34v3n: that brings in everything though. you may just want to get xserver-xorg and fluxbox or something | 17:08 |
| h34v3n | mmm then maybe that will work for me, because is for intranet use only | 17:08 |
| winterswift | giacomo_c: broken how? | 17:08 |
| vieq | hello, guys how do I control the brightness of my laptop screen on ubuntu | 17:09 |
| speedhunt3r | is there a way to detect your motherboard manufacturer and model in ubuntu? | 17:09 |
| vieq | I checked gnome-power-manager | 17:09 |
| RanDom33 | dmesg? | 17:09 |
| dabukalam | speedhunt3r: sudo apt-get install hardinfo | 17:09 |
| giacomo_c | i'm not sure, it pops up a message that says the software index is borken when it can't remove an old kernel/headers | 17:09 |
| vieq | but did not find what I was looking for | 17:09 |
| Arabus | speedhunt3r: try "sudo lshw -vvv" | 17:09 |
| Bob_Dole | mnaines: the GUI is useful for a few things. But I mostly remote-manage my systems without VNC. I started with the GUI, I havn't used it to manage my home server in about 3 months, though. This is a new system, I decided I didn't need the GUI. | 17:09 |
| mnaines | Bob_Dole: I am still too new to Linux to go without the GUI | 17:10 |
| Arabus | speedhunt3r: without the -vvv actually | 17:10 |
| h34v3n | soni__, pepperjack, i never use fluxbox but i saw it ... so its possible install it on server edition? | 17:10 |
| Pici | speedhunt3r: sudo dmidecode may also provide that information | 17:10 |
| RanDom33 | mnaines, I would just use the desktop edition for now, install samba, setup samba.. and experiment with it | 17:10 |
| mnaines | RanDom33: Yeah, because I like having everything in one place, not having to switch between places or dual-booting to get everything I want...I guess that comes from my Windows days | 17:12 |
| speedhunt3r | thanks guys | 17:12 |
| RanDom33 | mnaines, best of luck to you with it | 17:12 |
| mnaines | RanDom33: Thanks | 17:12 |

| DareDevil0 | Uhhmm there must be | 17:29 |
| jrib | jack87: yeah, read the vbox docs, they tell you how (you setup a share). Or ask #vbox | 17:29 |

| francesco__ | Hello guys. I have a problem. I don't know if it's a problem with my hardware or with Ubuntu. Recently, very often, my computer turns off by itself, and, to restart it, I need to pull the plug and put it in again. This happens always when I start up my computer. Precisely when the writing "starting up" appears. What do you think? | 18:03 |

| SHiR0 | I've got an ubuntu install on my "sda" but now I want to move it to "sdb" instead. What would be the smartest/easiest way? Just copy my files to the new HDD (already partitioned), then changing the entries in /etc/fstab from sda to sdb, or is there an easier way? | 18:05 |
| pepperjack | Bob_Dole: should be under the system menu to change it | 18:06 |

| francesco__ | Ljt: Not until now. Only when there's "starting up" on the screen. By the way, I have a double partition. I restarted my PC in the Windows mode. It happened why I try to restart the PC from Windows. | 18:09 |
| Slart | How do I update what commands/executables are in the path? I've created ~/bin and put a symbolic link in there pointing to an executable.. but I still can't run it from the terminal | 18:09 |
| kaankanat | hi | 18:09 |
| pepperjack | Sunny007: why are you running as root? | 18:09 |
| kaankanat | Are you using windows? | 18:09 |
| sash_ | llutz: dd with bs=1 is slow... if both disks have the same size, or the second one is larger, he can dump the whole partition and it will be bootable. so why shouldnt he use dd? | 18:09 |
| Sunny007 | i've always run it as root | 18:09 |
| kaankanat | or firefox? | 18:09 |
| sash_ | the whole disk, i meant. dump the whole disk. | 18:09 |
| mnaines | Sunny007: You know that's a bad thing, right? | 18:10 |
| queryboy | can anyone help me...i am unable to boot into ubuntu..the problem is that i tried to install XP to dual boot with existing 9.04...then my installation crashed...so i reinstalled my grub when another HDD was also connected.. The other HDD has been removed...and Now I am unable to get ubuntu... | 18:10 |
| pepperjack | Slart: a line like export PATH=$PATH:/new/bin <-- in your .bashrc file should do it | 18:10 |
| llutz | sash_: bs=4k would be faster, but theres no need to transfer images if copying files would be fine | 18:10 |
| pepperjack | Slart: you can set that in profile or whatever too | 18:10 |
| francesco__ | LjL: What do you thing? | 18:10 |
| Sunny007 | mnaines I dont know its a bad thing | 18:10 |
| sash_ | llutz: but how shall he be able to boot ist? he talked about an ubuntu-install, not about data. | 18:11 |
| mnaines | Sunny007: Running as root is a huge security risk | 18:11 |
| LjL | francesco__: i think it might be worth trying putting the usual "noapic" or "noacpi" options on the kernel command line and see if it gets better | 18:11 |
| llutz | sash_: fixing fstab/grub after copying and all is fine (as he mentioned in his 1st question) | 18:11 |
| Slart | pepperjack: hmm.. but I have this vague memory of ~/bin already being in the path.. I could be wrong of course | 18:11 |

| yukongt | why does the update manager keep wanting to do a partial upgrade, but the only thing it does is delete amarok? | 18:14 |
| pepperjack | queryboy: so when the computer boots do you get a grub screen or a screen telling you to hit esc key with a countdown? | 18:15 |
| queryboy | pepperjack; i simply get DHCP.../ | 18:15 |
| queryboy | pepperjack; and then i get a message saying disk not found...insert a disk...though in the BIOS settings i can see my disk | 18:16 |
| JuJuBee | Anybody know how I can reset a locked (software lock) thumb drive in linux? | 18:16 |
| pepperjack | queryboy: ok so maybe it is trying to netboot or somethig. redoing grub is really easy. youll need a livecd and 1) boot livecd 2) open a terminal 3) sudo grub 4) root (hd0,0) 5) setup (hd0) <-- now before you do step 4 you need to know that hd0 is sda/hda so hd0,0 is hda1 or sda1 if you sudo fdisk -l and that is your ubuntu partition it should work | 18:17 |
| francesco__ | Hi guys. How do I check the temperature of my CPU on Ubuntu? | 18:18 |
| genii | JuJuBee: Someone in #kubuntu already pointed you to using mkfs.vfat /dev/<HD-name> when you asked in there about this | 18:18 |
| queryboy | pepperjack; i did it an hour ago almost 2-3 times...i got it from that help.ubuntu.com doc....but it didn't turn out to be successful | 18:18 |
| reisio | francesco__: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto | 18:18 |
| pepperjack | queryboy: problem is your bios/boot order probably then. | 18:19 |
| francesco__ | reisio: Thank you. | 18:19 |

| daevski | c3l -- I'm wondering if the file download is wrong... and why it won't do anything when I try to launch the exe with wine. (two seperate issues, but one solution would be fine) | 20:02 |
| c3l | daevski: get an unix compatible app alternative! :) but if u must have that app.. well check if wine is working at all | 20:02 |
| c3l | and are you sure that the program will work in wine? but first of all make sure wine works as intended | 20:03 |
| daevski | c3l -- Aptana is the opensource alternative to dreamweaver, but it's downloaded as a exe for some odd reason -- wine is working for other apps, currently. | 20:03 |
| daevski | deathfox -- yes it over writes the boot loader -- but you can get windows to reclaim it if you want to later. | 20:04 |

| flanders | I've searched around, but it's difficult to figure this out. I have 3 computers (two using *buntu 9.04, and the other openSUSE, all 3 have rsync and grsync installed). I also have a FreeNAS box connected to the network. How can I have all 3 of my /home/username directories mirrored with the FreeNAS box, without deleting files from my 3 PCs? | 21:51 |
| CaptainMorgan | flanders, cron job? | 21:52 |
| dabukalam | my server has the gateway listed as 0.0.0.0, and if i change it with "/sbin/route add -net 0.0.0.0 gw {mygateway} eth0", it changes back when i restart. how can i solve this? | 21:52 |
| flanders | In other words, I do some things on PC #1, then a few things on PC #2, and I run rsync on them, which updates the CIFS share on the FreeNAS box, as well as transfers any new/updated files back to the source (PC #1, or PC #2, etc) | 21:53 |
| CaptainMorgan | flanders, interesting question... I have a similar setup, but I use unison as it pleases me | 21:53 |
| flanders | But Unison will only work between 2 systems? If you introduce a 3rd or 4th...? | 21:53 |
| CaptainMorgan | good point... | 21:53 |
| CaptainMorgan | cron the rsync... maybe? | 21:54 |
| CaptainMorgan | it'll be interesting to get other's opinions on this topic | 21:54 |
| gerald_ | hi i want to know if i can set up a user on a server then have that user profile avaiable on all network machines | 21:55 |
| flanders | The best example I can give is the Xmarks addon for Firefox. If I use 100 different PCs, running the Xmarks sync (on any, and even all PCs) will copy any new bookmarks to the Xmarks server. At the same time, any missing bookmarks on the PC will be downloaded from the Xmarks server. It's a 2-way sync. | 21:55 |

| flanders | CaptainMorgan, seems that the only way to do this with rsync is to run 2-passes, switching the "source" and "destination" directories. | 21:57 |
| flanders | CaptainMorgan, there doesn't seem to be any way to do it all in one pass. | 21:57 |

| PCTeacher012 | and coz_ I could not because in no way shape or form can i figure out the model of my (Dublin) motherboard | 22:18 |
| nerdy_kid | hi all, where is the config file that sets the global enviroment vars | 22:18 |
| coz_ | Zzeiss, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR | 22:18 |
| PCTeacher012 | I know the BIOS is Pheonix but they can not issue updates, only the manufacturer of the motherboard (dublin) can | 22:18 |
| Purpley | I need to install a a .deb file but I keep getting an error message, im not sure what the problem is I removed the existing software so it wouldn't conflict but I think it is | 22:19 |
| coz_ | PCTeacher012, ah mm let me see if there is a way to identify mother boards I used to know hold on :) | 22:19 |
| nerdy_kid | .dmrc? | 22:19 |
| Purpley | coz_ Turn your computer off | 22:19 |
| Purpley | Turn it back on | 22:19 |

| coz_ | Purpley, oh yeah but there is also an application or terminal command for this | 22:20 |
| PCTeacher012 | And i have one more problem. I tried moving my /home to a seperate partition, but it did not exactly work. On every boot, it informs me it "could not load home from /" even though when i go to terminal through failsafe it goes to my home that is on the partition. What is wrong? | 22:20 |
| grturner | website | 22:20 |
| PCTeacher012 | coz_: I think it is lshw but it does not show it | 22:20 |
| PCTeacher012 | well, sudo lshw | 22:20 |
| coz_ | PCTeacher012, try sudo mdidecode | more | 22:20 |
| coz_ | nono | 22:20 |
| coz_ | PCTeacher012, try sudo dmidecode | more | 22:21 |
| lexvegas | PCTeacher012, you could give lspci a shot. It might give you a clue | 22:21 |

| coz_ | PCTeacher012, well see if that command works sudo dmidecode | more | 22:21 |
| PCTeacher012 | coz_: It did, and all it gave me was the serial number | 22:22 |
| PCTeacher012 | which is obviously wrong: I doubt "0123456789" is my serial number for it :\ | 22:22 |
| coz_ | PCTeacher012, do a google with that serial number and name of motherboard manufacturer | 22:22 |

| The_Doctor | dumont: Sometimes you can just right click on the file and browse to the premissions tab and change it there., | 23:06 |
| PCTeacher012 | thomazz: When you installed ubuntu, maybe your ethernet driver was not installed | 23:06 |

| The_Doctor | Dream-Ubu: I have been trying for 7 years and 202 distrobutions. | 23:06 |

| Dream-Ubu | The_Doctor: ubuntu and DSL been playing with ubuntu since 8.04 | 23:07 |
| coz_ | pacifica, does this script title the terminal something different? | 23:07 |
| dumont | i don't need specific file manipulation i need to grant user www-data the ability to change userA's files, such as use chmod on userA's files | 23:07 |
| PCTeacher012 | nunu: What was the question again? | 23:07 |
| pacifica | coz_: I can't find a way to change the title at all | 23:07 |
| PCTeacher012 | thomazz: Just might be, but im not sure. | 23:07 |

| ZykoticK9 | pacifica, see "-t, --title=TITLE Set the terminal title" from "gnome-terminal --help-all". good luck. Eterm had that functionality back in the day as well. | 23:09 |
| hedkandi | crikey I can't get mplayer to work! | 23:09 |
| hedkandi | why not? | 23:09 |
| PCTeacher012 | nunu: If it is a file system error on ntfs partitions part, you must go into windows (the only ntfs operating system i know of) and run chkdsk | 23:09 |
| mikejet | If two processes are doing " cmd >> logfile", will each write append to the end, or will their output overlap? | 23:09 |
| coz_ | pacifica, if it is chaning the title it is likely to be listed in the script if you want the script to change the title you will have to enter that I cant help you with that | 23:09 |
| pacifica | coz_: if you look at the preferences in gnome-terminal, you can run a command in the terminal to change the title dynamically | 23:09 |
| The_Doctor | Dar | 23:09 |
| hedkandi | it gets as far as saying "mpeg-ps file format detected" and hangs | 23:09 |
| pacifica | unfortunately they don't say which command! | 23:09 |

| Alex____ | pacifica: But how can I find out the web address for the specific package file? all I know is it's name, eg. ubuntu-restricted-extras | 23:31 |
| erUSUL | hedkandi: a file to configure the network interfaces of the machine | 23:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | hdon, i haven't been following you problem. but does starting xkill and clicking on the application menu launch fit your bill? | 23:31 |
| Ademan | hdon: i'm not sure how to coax the root window into redrawing, but if you're using metacity you can write a devilspie script to resize every window and resize them back, needn't be too much work | 23:31 |
| hdon | hedkandi: it's a configuration file that defines networking interface | 23:31 |
| Curly_Q | Then Rainy look it up on Google and see if it is compatible with Ubuntu and whether the manufacturer made drivers for it in your case. | 23:32 |
| === phanki is now known as hipsauerkraut | ||
| erUSUL | hedkandi: for a desktop managing them via network manager is preferable | 23:32 |

| kraito_ | i can't play my music on amorak 2.0 when i click on it, can anyone help? | 23:33 |
| Alex____ | ZykoticK9: And I'm not sure if I messed something up... but /var/cache/apt/archives doesn't have many of the debs I've gotten with apt-get install | 23:33 |

| infid | thanks erUSUL and Ademan | 23:33 |
| === Madcmaper is now known as Madcamper | ||
| Curly_Q | I would suggest Rainy to you is to disconnect the monitor not while the computer is on but while off and go back to your computer and set the resolution to the lowest resolution. Then try the monitor. | 23:33 |

| Joshua^^ | hi everyone. Have a Gateway t-series laptop that won't install Ubuntu 9.04 | 23:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | Alex____, theoretically it should have virtually all of them? don't know why they wouldn't be there... mystery. | 23:34 |
| Ademan | kraito_: try selecting a different output system, gstreamer, alsa or pulseaudio | 23:34 |
| erUSUL | hedkandi: and a long etc. if you are interested there is plenty of info in the web | 23:34 |
| tipi | By mistake I deleted all the applications and system->settings in the menu panel in gnome. I already tried to reset the panel which brought back the applications but not the "system->settings". How bring back the settings? | 23:34 |
| Joshua^^ | just hanges. | 23:34 |
| infid | is there a reason 'ctrl-alt-l' is so slow to lock your screen? | 23:34 |
| edulacomadreja | hi! does someone has used an anviz ao280 fingerprint device? | 23:34 |
| RyNo | my FGLRX driver is showing "activated but not currently in use" can someoen help me with this? | 23:34 |
| angelus | thanks joebodo | 23:34 |
| hedkandi | erUSUL: ie where to send packets | 23:34 |
| hedkandi | Does the kernel automatically attempt to use any / all available network interfaces? | 23:35 |
| pacifica | ZykoticK9, found the problem.... even though /etc/bash.bashrc section is commented out | 23:35 |
| pacifica | ZykoticK9, its still in ~/.bashrc | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | tipi: right click on the panel and choose add to panel. in the list of applets there is the one that draws the menus (there are two versions one with only one button and the default Apps Places System menu ) | 23:35 |
| pacifica | ZykoticK9, so after commenting out that bit, things like xtermset -T "title" work.... | 23:35 |
| hdon | ZykoticK9: what's jaunty's default key combo for xkill? | 23:35 |
| albertong | hi! | 23:35 |
| pacifica | ZykoticK9, thanks for helping to think about this :-) | 23:35 |
| Alex____ | ZykoticK9: That's why apt-on-cd isn't working for me... ubuntu-restricted-extras, screenlets, emerald and compizconfig-settings-manager aren't in the folder | 23:35 |
| hdon | Ademan: is there a metacity scripting language? or metacity interfaces for another scripting lang? | 23:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | pacifica, "# If this is an xterm set the title to user@host:dir" nice catch :) | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | hedkandi: the kernel only loads the drivers for the nic (or modem or whatever) and present userspace with the interface to configure (ethx wlanx pppx sit pan br etc) | 23:36 |
| Joshua^^ | system powers up. Ubuntu loads. I pick my language "English" then select "Try without any changes to your computer" and it just hangs. | 23:36 |
| Curly_Q | Tipi if you want to fix that make sure that when you set up a USER ACCOUNT in ROOT, backup all of your important data from ROOT and then go back to root and delete the account and create the same account if you want those drivers or things you did. | 23:36 |
| tipi | erUSUL__ already tried that, but if I add a new menu to the panel, no system-> settings | 23:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | hdon, xkill has a hotkey? news to me. | 23:37 |
| hdon | :( | 23:37 |

| preecher | is there a way i can make a copy of my ubuntu that will have all the progs that i have | 23:38 |
| pacifica | Alex____, just browse http://packages.ubuntu.com | 23:39 |

| a_ | can someone please tell me how to change ownership on an external HD? I've tried chown, but it didn't take effect. | 23:39 |
| erUSUL | !clone | preecher | 23:39 |
| ubottu | preecher: 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 | 23:39 |

| Joshua^^ | should I pick OEM install? | 23:41 |
| pacifica | click on there, it will take you to a list of mirrors | 23:41 |
| erUSUL | !envyng | violet523 | 23:41 |
| ubottu | violet523: EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia or ATi drivers, it can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" (for Gtk/Gnome) or "envyng-qt" (for Qt/KDE). It is NOT a supported method to install video drivers; please only use it if standard methods fail and at your own risk - See also !BinaryDriver | 23:41 |
| Alex____ | pacifica: I see. I thought you were somehow trying to do like sudo wget ubuntu-restricted-extras and I wasn't following lol | 23:41 |
| pacifica | Alex____, then right click one of the mirrors and choose Copy Link Location | 23:41 |
| pacifica | Alex____, then paste that after "wget" | 23:41 |
| gasmask | Hi guys | 23:41 |
| violet523 | erUSUL: yeah that was the program i first tried | 23:42 |

| ae86-drifter | have u got the cups drivers installed | 23:55 |

| ZykoticK9 | gasmask, my entire config file is just "[keybindings] / full_screen = <Ctrl><Shift>F12" but i swithed it from F11 and it accepted the change fine. are you sure it's in ~/.config/terminator/ and called config? | 23:56 |
