| m0r0n | lstarnes: nossralsuva: Thanks | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| greensimian | Hey gang | 00:00 |
| greensimian | Got a ? | 00:00 |
| nossralsuva | m0r0n: no problem | 00:00 |
| greensimian | In windows I always have to enable disk caching | 00:00 |
| greensimian | Do I have to do the same in Linux? | 00:00 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Currently, sudo apt-get install samba is running, i will run sudo apt-get install system-samba-config as soon as it finishes | 00:00 |
| greensimian | Is there a place to fiddle with this kind of thing in Ubuntu? | 00:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | greensimian, no - the linux kernel looks after that for you. swap partitions and swap in general should NOT be used unless necessary! linux can do a lot in memory :) | 00:01 |
| nossralsuva | cody: be sure to run $sudo testparm to make sure you setup your parameters correctly | 00:01 |
| cody | okay, so after i install the samba, and set it up, run sudo testparm? | 00:02 |
| nossralsuva | cody: sudo apt-get install system-config-samba = correction | 00:02 |
| greensimian | ZykoticK9: People keep teling me that but my system runs much better with a 10gb Swap Part as opposed to 4gb of RAM | 00:02 |
| nossralsuva | cody: exactly, that will make sure that you have configured your parameters correctly | 00:02 |
| cody | nossralsuva: E: Couldn't find package system-samba-config | 00:02 |
| cody | and okaty | 00:02 |
| cody | okay* | 00:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | greensimian, although cache is sorta different, but not disk cache so much - it's also nice not to have to defrag - that took me some getting use too... | 00:02 |
| ae86-drifter | cody: ill brb have to go sorry | 00:03 |
| invitingdopeman | does anybody know how to register my nickname i cant figure this shit out | 00:03 |
| cody | ae86-drifter: Okay, thatsfine | 00:03 |
| Mehedi | how can i activate evolution mail for gmail? | 00:03 |
| mnaines | ZykoticK9: It took me some getting used to Linux not throwing everything into swap even though I have 4GB of RAM | 00:03 |
| gasmask | ZykoticK9: still looking... thanks for patience | 00:03 |
| greensimian | ZykoticK9: Yeah, I was looking for some defrag info too....it's automagical | 00:03 |
| nossralsuva | cody: if you see the output of "OK" then you have setup your samba configuration correctly, if not it will tell you which lines in your config files that you've made a mistake on | 00:03 |
| Solar_Flare | @Mehedi: It's described on google. | 00:03 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Ill use synaptic | 00:03 |
| dumont | i accidentally set chmod 7676 by mistake and now the directory displayes drwsrwsrw- , how can i set the mode to 776? and get rid of the "s" thats there? | 00:03 |
| Solar_Flare | Just google "Evolutionmail gmail" | 00:03 |
| nossralsuva | cody: yes you can use synaptic, actually that would be much easier | 00:03 |
| afeijo | I installed a ubuntu server into vmware. Everytime I power if up, I have to run sudo dhclient to make it get ip to work with my net. How to automatize it? | 00:04 |
| cody | libsamba-hostconfig0 is the package? | 00:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | afeijo, ask the same question in #ubuntu-server | 00:04 |
| afeijo | thanks | 00:04 |
| nossralsuva | dumount: set your chmod 0776 instead | 00:04 |
| invitingdopeman | how can i see my routers info | 00:04 |
| cody | nossralsuva: It is actually system-config-samba ;) | 00:04 |
| dumont | chmod 0776 * | 00:05 |
| nossralsuva | dumont: you've activated a 'sticky bit' | 00:05 |
| dumont | drwsrwsrw- | 00:05 |
| dumont | :S | 00:05 |
| dumont | whats a sticky bit and how do i deactivate it? | 00:05 |
| nossralsuva | cody: yes, thank you, i had stated that correction later a few lines up | 00:05 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Oh, i did not see that lol | 00:06 |
| nossralsuva | cody: when i realized that I made the typo | 00:06 |
| whatis6x9 | wow - printing is SO much better than 2 yrs ago :P | 00:06 |
| cheezey | anyway to quickly make a window fill half the screen (or anything similar)? | 00:06 |
| nossralsuva | cody: lols | 00:06 |
| PhantomLink | How do you search an ntfs drive again? | 00:06 |
| gasmask | ZykoticK9: ok, it looks like all the settings are being read from the config file near the top of the "terminator -d" output. However, shortly after that there is a section with "Returning 'keybindings':" and lists the keybinding set in the config as set to the default. hmmm | 00:06 |
| PhantomLink | It's grep | something right? | 00:06 |
| trism | PhantomLink: well you could do a grep -nHR "text you want to search for" /path_to_drive | 00:07 |
| nossralsuva | cheezey: you can go to >system>preferences>Windows and what I do is the 'roll up' feature after I have made the window (set manually) to half the screen size (vertically or horizontally) | 00:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasmask, beyond me man... good luck! | 00:07 |
| dumont | whats a sticky bit and how do i deactivate it? setting chmod 0776 * did not change anything, the directories are still drwsrwsrw- | 00:07 |
| cody | nossralsuva: The vista computer reports: Access denied, unable to connect | 00:07 |
| trism | PhantomLink: might take a while though | 00:07 |
| gasmask | ZykoticK9: ok, thanks for you help though. best of luck :) | 00:08 |
| mnaines | ZykoticK9: Did you get my IM? | 00:08 |
| Jacala | hi, I'm running ubuntu through a usb stick on a laptop & it's working great, inly thing is that it seems to lose any installs or saves on the desktop when I restart. Any way to save things when running it this way? | 00:08 |
| jordan__ | can someone help me with lib gtk???? | 00:08 |
| nossralsuva | cheezey: or you can just size your window to half the screen's size and then use the maximize button to take it full or to the present size state | 00:08 |
| kahashi | hello, i need help with my vga. basically all i want is to be able to watch my anime on the tv screen using linux | 00:08 |
| cody | nossralsuva: The vista computer reports: "Access denied, unable to connect | 00:09 |
| nossralsuva | cody" here is an e.g., for every new line you will see a * | 00:09 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Okay | 00:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | mnaines, sorry man I don't open ANY IMs - only in the channel for me... | 00:09 |
| solid_liq | !ping | 00:09 |
| ubottu | pong! | 00:09 |
| mnaines | ZykoticK9: Shame...The stuff I was going to talk to you about is ot for this room | 00:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | mnaines, message me in #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:10 |
| BoxMagnet | Can anyone tell me why i must use sudo su to echo -n 95 > /proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD03/brightness | 00:10 |
| BoxMagnet | sudo does not work nor, sudo -s | 00:10 |
| jordan__ | Ive already installed libgtk but whenever I try to install an application it says I need it.... but its already installed... when I tried to reinstall it it says that its already installed | 00:10 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: because > gets processed by the shell, which doesn't have any root permissions. | 00:10 |
| nossralsuva | cody: [cody] * comment = cody's linux share * path = /home/cody * valid users = cody * admin users = cody * writable = yes * read only = no * guest ok = no | 00:10 |
| BoxMagnet | LjL, can you instruct? | 00:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | BoxMagnet, your sending a setting to proc - basically direct HW access! this is root's domain. | 00:10 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: i what? | 00:11 |
| jordan__ | can someone please help me????? | 00:11 |
| kahashi | i am having trouble giving video signals to my tv. i have the vga cables. but cant get any signals to the tv | 00:11 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#Downsides of using sudo | 00:11 |
| nossralsuva | cody: the spacing is very important, the syntax is like this for example intention = output | 00:11 |
| saxofoner | So... Grub 2 (1.97 beta3) has lost it... If I try to boot linux it says I must load the kernel, and if I try to boot windows, it says out of memory. i can't find any results for the errors on google, which shocked me. so I tried reinstalling from the disk and it didn't work. If I install grub (legacy) from an old 8.04 disk, will it see karmic? | 00:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | BoxMagnet, what are you trying to do!?!? strange to be sending "-n 95" to a video card?!?! | 00:12 |
| dumont | whats a sticky bit and how do i deactivate it? setting chmod 0776 * did not change anything, the directories are still drwsrwsrw- | 00:12 |
| BoxMagnet | ZykoticK9, lol, its screen brightness | 00:12 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: you can use, instead, either « sudo sh -c "command > /proc/whatever" », or you can use « sudo command | tee /proc/whatever » to circumvent that | 00:12 |
| cody | nossralsuva: In the samba system config, do i need to add a share dedicated to MFC210C Printer? one is for /var/lib/samba/printers | 00:12 |
| cody | and ok | 00:12 |
| LjL | ZykoticK9: typing "echo -n 95" doesn't send "-n 95". the "-n" is an option that tells "echo" to not append a newline. | 00:12 |
| LjL | it sends "95". | 00:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | BoxMagnet, but "-n 95" are you SURE that's the command! | 00:13 |
| BoxMagnet | ZykoticK9, it works | 00:13 |
| BoxMagnet | lol! | 00:13 |
| nossralsuva | cody: if you have a printer on the system it will automatically share the printers to the network | 00:13 |
| bastidrazor | BoxMagnet: it would be echo command | sudo tee /proc/wherever | 00:13 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Okay, i am still there. I have it set to allow access to anybody (not just cody and noone) | 00:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | LjL, hummm thanks man. that almost seems like BoxMagnet might be clearing a setting then??? | 00:14 |
| kahashi | pardon me, who here is familiar with vga outputs? | 00:14 |
| BoxMagnet | echo -n 95 | sudo /proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD03/brightness | 00:14 |
| BoxMagnet | ? | 00:14 |
| LjL | ZykoticK9: no, he's sending "95" to his brightness. makes perfect sense to me | 00:14 |
| LjL | the range might be 0 to 255, or 0 to 100, i don't know | 00:14 |
| PhantomLink | how do i use grep to search for all files of a particular type on an ntfs drive? | 00:14 |
| bastidrazor | BoxMagnet: add tee after sudo | 00:14 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: sudo tee | 00:15 |
| BoxMagnet | k | 00:15 |
| dumont | whats a sticky bit and how do i deactivate it? setting chmod 0776 * did not change anything, the directories are still drwsrwsrw- | 00:15 |
| BoxMagnet | thanks everyone | 00:15 |
| LjL | PhantomLink: what do you mean by "type"? format? | 00:15 |
| nossralsuva | cody: if you want to allow all, the example that i gave you before: just change guest ok = yes and it will automatically allow any computer to connect to it as a guest | 00:15 |
| PhantomLink | yeah | 00:15 |
| PhantomLink | like all files of type pdf | 00:15 |
| nossralsuva | cody: the guest account in linux is called "nobody" | 00:15 |
| LjL | PhantomLink: that's not really grep's realm | 00:16 |
| dumont | help, i can't remove the sticky bit! | 00:16 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Okay, but on vista, do i have to do anything to connect to it? I have chosen the printer, but it says "access denied, unable to connect" | 00:16 |
| LjL | PhantomLink: besides, can't you use the extension (e.g. "*.pdf")? that'd be *much* faster than actually determining the file's type. | 00:16 |
| nossralsuva | on the vista in the address bar \\computerIP\\usersharefolder the user share folder is the one on the linux box | 00:17 |
| m0r0n | Anyone have Dr. Java installed? | 00:17 |

| rabby_ | after dist upgrade i worry about Quanta's print preview which opens gimp instead of a lightweight gtk-print or kprinter dialog :-( | 00:18 |
| rabby_ | does anyone have an idea how to fix this? | 00:18 |
| subone | I'm trying to get samba working on my box but I can't even ping my box from a windows machine. it says Destination host unreachable. Any help? | 00:18 |
| dumont | help, i can't remove the sticky bit! i set it accidentally, but now when i do "chmod 0776 file" it does not seem to remove! | 00:18 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Okay, where do i find the share folder? | 00:19 |
| corey | anyone know what the best version of linux us for a noob? | 00:19 |
| m0r0n | corey: Mint | 00:19 |
| corey | can u send me a link so i can mirror it? | 00:19 |
| RainyLithuanian | whr is xorg conf? | 00:19 |
| LjL | dumont: try chmod -t instead, and try with sudo | 00:19 |
| nossralsuva | cody: run sudo smbpasswd -a username this adds a password to the username that you are sharing | 00:19 |
| dumont | i'm logged in as root | 00:19 |
| bastidrazor | RainyLithuanian: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:19 |
| m0r0n | corey: http://www.linuxmint.com/ | 00:19 |
| RainyLithuanian | thanks | 00:19 |
| BoxMagnet | LjL, anyway I can get sudo to not ask a password so I can make that in to a script? | 00:20 |
| dumont | whats -t operand? | 00:20 |
| LjL | corey: have you tried asking in #ubuntu-offtopic ? this channel is about *Ubuntu* support | 00:20 |
| corey | thanks | 00:20 |
| nossralsuva | dumont: use sudo instead to do that, no need to be running as root | 00:20 |
| cody | nossralsuva: What if i already have a pass on my username (my username is cody) | 00:20 |
| nossralsuva | cody: smbpasswd -a cody | 00:20 |
| LjL | m0r0n: that seems like a gratuitous suggestion, i could give any other. (and Mint isn't supported here, for the record) | 00:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | dumont, try "sudo chmod a-s FILENAMES" :) | 00:21 |
| nossralsuva | cody: it will ask you to make a new password, this password is for the share folder that you made in the samba config file | 00:21 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: that would be quite dangerous. are you intending to do that every time you start your computer? | 00:21 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Added it | 00:21 |
| m0r0n | Anyone know a similar Dr. Java program that is easy to code in for a beginner programmer (School). I tried Eclipse and that didn't work out too well. | 00:21 |
| BoxMagnet | LjL, um, no ... on command for several different settings. | 00:21 |
| LjL | ZykoticK9: uhm, sticky bit is "t", "s" is for setuid afair | 00:21 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: not making it ask for a password is going to be tricky. | 00:22 |
| dumont | ok a-s wokred, thank YOU!!!! | 00:22 |
| BoxMagnet | LjL, err, im sorry. the real reason this is all going on is because I have absolutelty no idea how to make my laptop function keys work | 00:22 |
| m0r0n | LjL: Link him something then, I haven't used it personally, but I hear it's easy to use. I'm still fairly new to the Linux world | 00:22 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: which laptop is that? there are some packages for that in the repos | 00:22 |
| BoxMagnet | LjL, Hp Pavillion dv6000 | 00:22 |
| LjL | m0r0n: no, i won't "link him something". that's not what this channel is for, and it would also be meaningless. | 00:23 |
| BoxMagnet | i have made my volume keys etc work.. | 00:23 |
| LjL | !best | m0r0n | 00:23 |
| ubottu | m0r0n: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 00:23 |
| RainyLithuanian | I cannot believe I being such and idiot solved pivoting problem editing xorg.conf in first attempt:D | 00:23 |
| corey | i hjate the robot... | 00:23 |
| RainyLithuanian | there is a bug with eee 1000 which messes up the resolution boundaries in xorg and thus spawns a lot of bugs with external monitors:( | 00:24 |
| nossralsuva | cody: restart the samba server by typing 'sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart and then try to input the \\computerip\sharefolder into the vista's address bar | 00:24 |
| LjL | BoxMagnet: uhm no i can't find anything (doesn't mean there isn't, just isn't exceptionally easy to find) | 00:24 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Okay, i will run that | 00:24 |
| corey | whats the main difference between ubuntu kubuntu and xubuntu | 00:25 |
| Kurogane | hello, any1 can help me to install java? here he error http://pastebin.com/m3afbae34 | 00:25 |

| ae86-drifter | cody: goto System>administration>Printing right click on the printer, properties, and check the user access settings, also goto System>administration>Samba Config, and check the permissions there, then restart the samba server | 00:30 |
| === NickName is now known as Jihui | ||

| ae86-drifter | do you have the samba config GUI? | 00:32 |
| cody | ae86-drifter: System>Administration>Printing is: Access Control - Allow printing for everyone. System>Administration>Samba is: Allow access to everybody. Restarting it now | 00:32 |

| Chun1 | Hi - using jaunty, anyone know how I can stop network-manager asking for my keyring password every time I boot? | 00:33 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Command again? | 00:33 |
| nossralsuva | cody: that was a line that you could put in your samba configuration file | 00:34 |
| cody | nossralsuva: I dont know where to locate the conf file | 00:34 |
| cody | lol | 00:34 |
| nossralsuva | cody: /etc/samba/smb.conf | 00:34 |
| nossralsuva | cody: that file controls the entire operation of samba | 00:35 |
| pradeep | chun1 /home/chun1/.gnome2/keyrings | 00:35 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Okay, where do i put in the line? | 00:35 |
| nossralsuva | cody: at the very last line of the entire file | 00:35 |
| Loafers | How do I run a program executed through shell in the background? | 00:36 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Okay, all on one line? | 00:36 |
| LjL | Loafers: add & after its command line | 00:36 |
| bastidrazor | Loafers: you could use programname & disown | 00:36 |
| Loafers | LjL, It's already running. | 00:36 |
| Chun1 | pradeep: got a login.keyring | 00:36 |
| pradeep | yea | 00:36 |
| nossralsuva | cody: no each section is a line, each new share ( representing a share folder) starts off with [sharename] | 00:37 |
| Loafers | LjL, Theres no way to get prompt when program is already running? | 00:37 |
| m0r0n | Is there an applet to show free disk space? | 00:37 |
| Jester | Does anyone know how to change the terminal bell from the internal speaker (pcspkr) to something else, like a sound file ? | 00:37 |
| LjL | Loafers: yes. | 00:37 |
| LjL | Loafers: hit ctrl+z | 00:37 |
| nossralsuva | cody: then every line will have input = output an example is guest ok = yes | 00:37 |
| LjL | Loafers: then the program will "freeze", and you'll get a prompt again. then you can type "bg <number>" to get it running again, but this time in the background. | 00:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | starcannon, did you fix your Savage issue? Took me a while to download - but it's 64bit versions installed perfectly for me once i chmod +x the file. | 00:38 |
| Loafers | LjL, ah awesome :) | 00:38 |
| cody | nossralsuva: so like this: http://pastebin.ca/1623009 | 00:38 |
| gasmask | Loafers: you can also use the "jobs" and the "fg" and "bg" commands | 00:38 |
| Billiard | is there something like rev that works for binary input | 00:39 |
| gasmask | Loafers: Jobs will show you what is running in the shell. | 00:39 |
| Loafers | gasmask, awesome thanks! | 00:39 |
| nossralsuva | cody: yes, exactly | 00:39 |
| cody | nossralsuva: Restarted its server now | 00:39 |
| cody | nossralsuva: http://pastebin.ca/1623012 good testparm? | 00:40 |
| nossralsuva | cody: just follow that file's pattern from the link and replace their share's with yours | 00:40 |

| cody | nossralsuva: What do you mean concur with ae86-drifter? And okay, how do i edit it this time? | 00:42 |
| ae86-drifter | yeah, even though i work for a printer company doing linux tech suppiort? | 00:43 |
| ae86-drifter | which is brother | 00:43 |
| ae86-drifter | lol | 00:43 |
| subone | nvm it works :p | 00:43 |
| Billiard | stylezed: you must resize the extended partition | 00:43 |
| bastidrazor | stylezed: moving partitions around can be a dangerous risk.. use a LiveCD with gparted or a gparted CD | 00:43 |
| nossralsuva | cody: he was telling you to use the system-config-samba instead to edit the samba file without doing it the hard technical way | 00:43 |
| ae86-drifter | pwned | 00:43 |
| violet523 | anyone have any tips for getting opengl to work on a nvidia geforce 5200? | 00:44 |
| ae86-drifter | its much easier to use GUIs for most people | 00:44 |
| stylezed | im in the liveCd right now.. and im trying to resize the extended partition.. but it wont let me resize it LEFT.. | 00:44 |
| cody | nossralsuva: I tried doing graphical but it wasnt workin :( | 00:44 |
| ae86-drifter | especially most people in this room | 00:44 |
| Billiard | stylezed: can you move it | 00:44 |
| stylezed | its odd... i want to move the beginning of the extended partition LEFT into the unused space | 00:44 |
| stylezed | no it wont let me move it | 00:44 |
| nossralsuva | cody: so is it working now? | 00:45 |
| stylezed | its a pain in the ass. | 00:45 |
| Billiard | stylezed: is it mounted right now? | 00:45 |
| cody | nossralsuva: No | 00:45 |
| cody | :( | 00:45 |
| stylezed | no its not mounted | 00:45 |
| stylezed | im running from the live cd at the moment... i ran gparted as su | 00:45 |
| stylezed | still wouldnt let me move it left into the unused space | 00:45 |
| stylezed | aah shit | 00:46 |
| stylezed | im an idiot | 00:46 |
| Billiard | stylezed: it looks like it could be mounted, its showing a mount point | 00:46 |
| stylezed | i was selecting the logical partition not the extended | 00:46 |
| stylezed | duh | 00:46 |
| stylezed | thanks Billiard - sometimes all it takes is for someone else to look to make your brain work | 00:47 |
| Billiard | lol | 00:47 |
| stylezed | i feel like an idiot now... cuz im not a newbie.. | 00:47 |
| stylezed | thanks tho. | 00:47 |
| cody | ae86-drifter and nossralsuva: I am using an online tutorial :p | 00:48 |
| stylezed | i'm probably going to have to re-setup grub after this aren't I? | 00:48 |
| ae86-drifter | open the samba gui, click preferences and goto user settings and just add the name of the windows vista user | 00:49 |
| stylezed | *sigh* wish i'd set up the partitions correctly in the first place.. i was rushing.. it's a new laptop | 00:49 |
| a_ | i'm trying to change the ownership of an external drive. any takers? | 00:51 |
| ae86-drifter | chown <path> | 00:52 |
| mnaines | a_: sudo chown username:usergroup /dev/harddrivedesignation | 00:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | mnaines, you should change the filesystem permission NOT the devices' permission! like "sudo chmod user:group /mount/disk" | 00:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | a_, see above! | 00:53 |
| tonyyarusso | I don't even think you *can* change device permissions after they exist. | 00:54 |
| boscop | why does my internet connection get disconnected every few minutes? | 00:54 |
| stylezed | i dont think you can change a device permission | 00:54 |
| boscop | please answer quick :/ | 00:54 |
| stylezed | what tonyyarusso said | 00:54 |
| stylezed | heh | 00:54 |
| mnaines | Yes, you can, tonyyarusso...You can change the permissions of an entire drive | 00:54 |
| ae86-drifter | boscop: i dont know, you need to provide more detail | 00:54 |
| stylezed | mnaines: learn something new every day. | 00:55 |
| boscop | ae86-drifter: in the system monitor I then see that no traffic happens | 00:55 |
| mnaines | tonyyarusso: For example, if you have one internal drive and one external drive and want to change permissions for the external drive, you type sudo chown username:usergroup /dev/sdb | 00:55 |
| boscop | ae86-drifter: and I try to reconnect with sudo pon dsl-provider | 00:55 |
| tonyyarusso | mnaines: I know the command, I just don't know if it actually works. | 00:55 |
| ae86-drifter | boscop: you need to explain what type of connection you have | 00:55 |
| boscop | but it doesn't work often | 00:56 |
| violet523 | been trying to get opengl working with my nvidia geforce fx 5200 and although /var/log/Xorg.0.log is showing no problems, gdm seems to lock up at a blank screen | 00:56 |
| boscop | ae86-drifter: dsl | 00:56 |
| Doc_Lappy | can anybody tell me how to fix grub with live cd? | 00:56 |
| mnaines | tonyyarusso: The /dev/sdb path does work, but it changes for the entire drive, not just the file system | 00:56 |
| ae86-drifter | boscop: wired or wireless | 00:56 |
| boscop | ae86-drifter: wired | 00:56 |
| nossralsuva | cody: okay | 00:56 |
| keith1 | has anyone had any luck installing Jahshaka on their system? | 00:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | mnaines, /dev/sdb is a DRIVE not even a partition - ontop of partition are the filesystem that these changes reside on | 00:56 |
| Assjj | hi guys i keep getting 403 forbidden when i access cgi-bin/ http://pastie.org/656950 please help | 00:56 |
| tonyyarusso | mnaines: huh, maybe it doesn't work for some other device type - I know I tried it on something once unsuccessfully. | 00:57 |
| mnaines | ZykoticK9: Yes, but if you want to change permissions for the entire drive (in cases where the drive has more than one file system and you want all of them to have the same permissions), you use the drive path not the mount path | 00:57 |
| a_ | Zykotick9: I already tried that. Terminal went through the whole list of files and "changed" the owner, but I still get "you are not the owner" | 00:58 |
| mnaines | ZykoticK9: Did you unmount the drive first? | 00:58 |
| stylezed | Doc_Lappy: check your messages | 00:59 |
| mnaines | oops | 00:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | a_, are you "ls -l" in the directory | 00:59 |
| mnaines | a_: Did you unmount the drive first? | 00:59 |
| a_ | no | 00:59 |
| a_ | how do I unmount from terminal? | 00:59 |
| mnaines | a_: The drive has to be mounted or else it won't work | 00:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | a_, "sudo umount /mount/point" | 01:00 |
| Scunizi | mnaines: a_ ... perhaps the syntax of the chown command wasn't correct.. sudo chown <username:username> /path/to/directory | 01:00 |
| DaZ | username:group :f | 01:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | a_, did you use the chmod -R switch for recursive? | 01:01 |
| violet523 | -does nayone have any place maybe i could look, from what i understand,g aming wise, nvidia has some somewhat decent upport fir 3d? | 01:01 |
| mnaines | Scunizi: If he's trying to change ownership of the drive itself, he needs the drive path, which he can get from ls -l | 01:01 |
| mnaines | violet523: I use an nVidia card and it supports 3D just fine through OpenGL | 01:01 |
| Scunizi | mnaines: sure.. no doubt.. I just came in so I'm not aware in what context and what he's actually changing.. | 01:01 |
| Scunizi | violet523: nvidia all the way.. ati is hit and miss .. | 01:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | a_, you need that drive mounted to make any changes to the filesystem! | 01:02 |

| Purpley | how do i make a symlink between libosgGA.so.61 and libsgGA.so ? | 01:05 |
| Scunizi | mnaines: that's an older card .. with the newer releases of ubuntu you might need to install the legacy driver. It's in Synaptic package manager.. however if you've just installed do a full update and it might pull it in automatically.. open a terminal and type or cut and paste.. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ... | 01:05 |
| violet523 | mnaines: its one of the few cards tihs particular box will run. the main gaming computer has an 8500, but we were looking to have two boxes with wow and linux not just one with doze and one with linux | 01:05 |

| ZykoticK9 | a_, s/unmount/umount !!!! | 01:06 |
| Purpley | The program needs a app with .so.61 but that dosent exist so yeah :\ | 01:06 |
| Jihui_Choi | how can I fix the grub without live cd? | 01:06 |
| Scunizi | Jihui_Choi: grub should have picked up the windows install and listed it in the menu.. you might need to reinstall grub to catch it. | 01:06 |
| Scunizi | !grub | Jihui_Choi | 01:06 |
| ubottu | Jihui_Choi: 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 | 01:06 |

| violet523 | Scunizi: isn't a dist upgrade little drastic? should i just try the legacy drivers first? | 01:07 |
| Billiard | violet523: i think u do need to use legacy for 5200 | 01:07 |
| Purpley | how do i make a symlink between libosgGA.so.61 and libsgGA.so ? same directory | 01:07 |
| Billiard | Purpley: ln -s file file.so.61 | 01:08 |
| violet523 | alright, be back in ten then if it doesnt work ;p | 01:08 |
| Purpley | but I need .so to be linked with .so.61 | 01:08 |
| Jihui_Choi | Scunizi: nono.. actually I had xp and ubuntu. and I installed ubuntu 9.10 and failed. so I installed mbr for booting on xp because after installing ubuntu 9.10, I couldn't boot on xp. After that I installed 9.04 again. | 01:08 |
| Purpley | oh wait | 01:08 |
| Purpley | nvm i see what you meant lol | 01:08 |
| Jihui_Choi | And now I can't boot on xp still. I can boot on 9.04, though | 01:09 |
| a_ | the name of my external HD is "disc 3". This is exactly what I am typing: mount "/media/disc 3" | 01:10 |
| Purpley | nvm do you know where one could install libosgGA.so.61 | 01:10 |
| Scunizi | Jihui_Choi: look in /boot/grub/ ... that's where menu.list (your grub boot menu) is located.. see if there are backups in that directory you can look at for the right references to the load routine for xp | 01:10 |
| jrib | a_: what do you expect that to do? | 01:10 |
| Billiard | Purpley: for what program | 01:10 |
| pradeep | ok | 01:10 |
| jrib | !who | a_ | 01:10 |
| ubottu | a_: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 01:10 |
| Jihui_Choi | Scunizi: no I've just checked. there's no backup for menu.lst | 01:11 |
| a_ | jrib: mount the drive? | 01:11 |
| jrib | a_: is it in your fstab then? | 01:11 |
| Scunizi | a_: linux doesn't like names with spaces.. if the name of the drive is "disk 3" then when mentioning it put ' on either end. | 01:11 |
| a_ | jrib: I dont think so | 01:11 |
| Scunizi | Jihui_Choi: just one drive in the machine? | 01:11 |
| jrib | a_: then the command wouldn't work. What are you trying to accomplish? | 01:11 |

| Purpley | Billiard, FGRUN which is linked to FGFS | 01:12 |

| MJ94_ | Hi. I just started using Ubuntu today, and I can't get Ubuntu to recognize and use my wireless card. How can I get it to do so? You may say "How are you here then?" Answer: Ethernet. | 01:14 |

| RIPPED | i got a dual boot vista ubuntu9.x install , i think i did all correct , but when i hibernate , and switch on the computer , the things was opend when hibernate , like browser or programs arent there . why ? | 01:14 |
| ae86-drifter | make sure u say your from australia, or we cannot provide support | 01:14 |
| maco | MJ94_: check system -> administraiton -> hardware drivers | 01:14 |
| Jihui_Choi | what reference? on my usb? | 01:14 |
| m0r0n | Anyone install on sucessfully? | 01:14 |
| maco | MJ94_: if your wireless driver isnt included, that should let you download one using your ethernet | 01:14 |
| Jihui_Choi | I already tried, but it didn't work well | 01:14 |
| tonyyarusso | m0r0n: You're missing a noun. | 01:15 |

| ZykoticK9 | MJ94_, after doing what maco suggested - if nothing is listed for wireless, put in a wired connect - run the updates for ubuntu - then check "hardware drivers" again (only a hint if your wireless isn't there) | 01:15 |

| losha | kingbuzzo: my understanding is modelines (and other config) will be used if added to the xorg.conf file. The challenge is to get the syntax & values correct when adding lines... | 01:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | StrangeCharm_, what's with this pikill stuff? does this replace kill and killall? | 01:18 |
| LordQuackstar | If i've got 2 screens set up as seperate x screens, is their any way to move windows between screens? I like having 2 x screens, but can't stand not being able to move stuff to the other screen. All google returns is people asking the same question | 01:18 |
| cody | ae86-drifter: okay, reply with help? | 01:18 |
| kingbuzzo | hm, couldn't just add "320x240" or something right? | 01:18 |
| StrangeCharm_ | ZykoticK9, pkill <name> is like kill (pidof <name>) | 01:19 |
| Billiard | ZykoticK9: pkill kills based on name | 01:19 |
| Guest52916 | is there a special channel for the netbook remix? | 01:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | LordQuackstar, I looked into that -- NO way to move between :( you can force windows to open on one or the other - but not switch once their open -- had big problems with firefox with a dual-X setup like that | 01:19 |
| losha | kingbuzzo: dunno what kind of computers you're used to, but the ones I use, you can't just guess at the config. You kind of have to know what you're doing... | 01:19 |
| LordQuackstar | sigh | 01:20 |
| StrangeCharm_ | LordQuackstar, what's your gpu? | 01:20 |
| vox | LordQuackstar: not the way you have it set up, no | 01:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | StrangeCharm_, Billiard so it doesn't really matter which we use? | 01:20 |
| LordQuackstar | StrangeCharm: an old geoforce 5500 | 01:20 |
| kingbuzzo | well I want to have my crt monitor display low res. Before I would simply add the resolution to the modelines and be done with it | 01:20 |
| cody_ | what is the default file viewer in ubuntu? | 01:20 |
| ae86-drifter | cody: please also email samba config file | 01:21 |
| LordQuackstar | ZykoticK9: How did you force a window to open in another screen? I was wanting to move the firefox error log to the other one | 01:21 |
| StrangeCharm_ | ZykoticK9, there are some other methods for using dual monitors. there's a very good proprietary one for nvidia cards (twinview) | 01:21 |
| WanHouse | cody_: gedit most likely | 01:21 |
| cody_ | ae86-drifter: I will send a new one with it now | 01:21 |
| WanHouse | cody_: No doubt since its the best viewer | 01:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | LordQuackstar, can't do that i'm affraid -- sorry i'm mistaken, it's only with twinview you can force which window - sorry | 01:21 |
| ae86-drifter | ok thanks, cody_ please also detail as much as you can | 01:21 |
| LordQuackstar | StrangeCharm_: twinview just makes the computer think its one giant monitor. However, i like the ability to have seperate workspaces. Is their a way to do that with twinview? | 01:22 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| losha | kingbuzzo: sorry, you've exceeded my expertise on the subject. If you have an old mode line from a previous x config, that's what I'd try... | 01:22 |
| LordQuackstar | (thats really all i want, diffrent workspaces for each monitor | 01:22 |
| kingbuzzo | cool, thanks | 01:22 |
| cody_ | ae86-drifter: I just sent another email | 01:22 |
| WanHouse | ae86-drifter: Why not use a configurator for that ? | 01:22 |
| StrangeCharm_ | LordQuackstar, i'm sure you could hack something with workspaces. what specific workspace features are you looking for? | 01:23 |
| bastidrazor | LordQuackstar: xinerama might be what your wanting. nvidia-settings has the option for this | 01:23 |
| WanHouse | ae86-drifter: Or do you wish to rely on cody_ all the time ? | 01:23 |
| ae86-drifter | WanHouse: looking at the config file would help determine what needs to be changed to allow access | 01:23 |
| LordQuackstar | bastidrazor: xinerama seemed just like twinview | 01:23 |
| ae86-drifter | WanHouse: what do you mean rely ? | 01:24 |
| m0r0n | Anyone know what this means in GParted http://paste.ubuntu.com/294298/ | 01:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | LordQuackstar, just to clarify - virtual workspaces is TOTALLY different from two X sessions <-- which is a rather unusal setup i might add, i looked into it for gaming but eventually gave up on it | 01:24 |
| LordQuackstar | StrangeCharm_: Each monitor has an independant workspace. That way i can change workspaces in one monitor w/o it affecting the other | 01:24 |
| LordQuackstar | ZykoticK9: I was using 2 x screens for that feature | 01:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | LordQuackstar, ummm ok so you really do want 2 X sessions then! | 01:25 |
| chris-s | m0r0n: is the drive mounted? | 01:25 |
| m0r0n | chris-s: Ya | 01:25 |
| StrangeCharm_ | LordQuackstar, you have exceeded my skills. try hacking something fun. if you make it work, publish, and relish in theglory | 01:25 |
| LordQuackstar | ZykoticK9: Sihg. I was really wanting to use both features at the same time | 01:26 |
| LordQuackstar | *sigh | 01:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | LordQuackstar, i have 2 monitor and many virtual workspaces (ie 4 desktops) but am using twinview with one big monitor across both monitors - it's a LOT easier for me then 1 XSession on each monitor. | 01:26 |
| WanHouse | ae86-drifter: "add a user", "add the user to a share" (valid users or so) then youre about done. | 01:26 |
| LordQuackstar | Alright, thanks for the help | 01:26 |
| WanHouse | ae86-drifter: What i really meant was, use a gui if in doubt. | 01:26 |
| ae86-drifter | WanHouse, i know this, but he has already allowed access to everybody | 01:26 |
| chris-s | well you need to unmount it before gparted will do anything to it. So close gparted, you can probaly unmount it from places -> computer | 01:27 |
| ae86-drifter | i agree that GUI is much easier to use but if i were to help somebody, looking at the conf file will tell me what needs to be changed | 01:27 |
| WanHouse | ae86-drifter: gadmin-samba, webmin etc could be nice. One screenshot or so and youll have your whole setup documented as well. | 01:27 |
| slackr | anyone else experiencing popping sounds from for example tab-completes in the shell on ubuntu 9.10? | 01:27 |
| ae86-drifter | cody_ : under the [printers] section change browseable = yes | 01:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | slackr, ask same question in #ubuntu+1 | 01:28 |
| cody_ | ae86-drifter: Okay, editing now | 01:28 |
| violet523 | SIGH. it was failure. using the nv module now so i can ge out of single user mode | 01:28 |
| cody_ | it (under [printers] path = /tmp wrong? | 01:29 |
| ae86-drifter | cody: no | 01:29 |
| cody_ | ae86-drifter: Okay, /var/lib/samba/printers is correct? | 01:29 |
| nossralsuva | cody: that browseable = yes will allow the network to see the shared printers attached to the linux machine | 01:29 |
| ae86-drifter | sorry thats right cody_ | 01:29 |
| ae86-drifter | both sections | 01:29 |
| cody_ | Okay, i had to change it, for some reason it was /tmp ae86-drifter And nossralsuva Okay, i am restarting samba | 01:29 |

| ryguy | Hello, I installed Windows XP after installing Ubuntu. Ubuntu is on sda(hd0) and XP is sdb(hd1). I can boot into ubuntu by putting hd0 to the top of my boot list in bios. Same with XP when I put hd1 at the top of the boot list. Now, When I start up my machine with Ubuntu as my first boot disk, I don't get grub at all. I get a crypted line that kinda looks like an MD5 hash with dashes in it at the top of a black screen for about 15 secs then it boots into Ub | 01:49 |
| ryguy | untu. I need help getting GRUB back. I've followed all instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#Using%20the%20Unofficial%20%22Super%20Grub%20Disk%22 but nothing is working | 01:49 |
| === Guest84147 is now known as geckosen1tor | ||
| bastidrazor | violet523: although the only real way for you to find it, is to try installing the drivers and testing. if it doesn't meet your expectations then install the other and repeat | 01:49 |
| dsnyders | Guest84147, It would likely be bad... Very bad. | 01:49 |
| ttestt | ryguy, you russian? | 01:50 |
| bastidrazor | violet523: just an FYI.. when you do the driver install just relog. no need to do a complete reboot | 01:50 |
| ryguy | ttestt: ..no? | 01:50 |

| hsarci | im trying to put "echo -n 230 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity" into /etc/rc.local. I have it in there, and rc.local is +x. However, the command doens't work; it won't execute at boot. But the command DOES work from the console after boot. | 01:53 |
| hsarci | any ideas? | 01:53 |
| ryguy | Either way, can someone help me? | 01:53 |
| ttestt | anyone use VLC to write video from v4l2? | 01:54 |
| bastidrazor | hsarci: you need the full path of echo /bin/echo | 01:54 |
| dsnyders | hsarci, does it work if you execute it manually? | 01:54 |
| hsarci | yes it works fine manually | 01:54 |
| hsarci | that exact code, i just coppied from the console | 01:55 |
| hsarci | works fine | 01:55 |
| jrib | hsarci: are you adding it before the exit line? | 01:55 |
| hsarci | absolutely before the exit line | 01:55 |
| hsarci | should /bin/echo fix it? | 01:55 |
| dsnyders | hsarci, I think bastidrazor has it. Put the full path in. | 01:55 |
| hsarci | k im gonna edit it then restart | 01:55 |

| nomnex | ubottu: the link is for 6.06 LTS, I am using 9.04, the fist command does not work "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec" | 01:56 |
| losha | hsarci: add some debugs e.g. echo Before setting sensitivity and echo After setting sensitivity so you can see if the rc.local gets executed. You can also add cat /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity before and after to see the before and after values.... | 01:56 |
| ryguy | nomnex: ubottu is a bot.. | 01:57 |
| jrib | hsarci: is there a reason you aren't using sysctl by the way? | 01:57 |
| nomnex | ... oh. | 01:57 |
| ryguy | lol | 01:57 |
| losha | !grub | ryguy: maybe this will help... | 01:57 |
| ubottu | ryguy: maybe this will help...: 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 | 01:57 |
| nomnex | lol | 01:57 |
| hsarci | cuz i dunno what sysctl is | 01:57 |
| hsarci | losha, where do i see the output of those debugs? | 01:57 |
| ryguy | losha: I've already followed that guide | 01:57 |
| nomnex | any one? Mic not working on my laptop | 01:58 |
| jrib | hsarci: you should probably take some time to learn about it | 01:58 |
| divpload | hello guys | 01:58 |
| hsarci | can you breifly explain? | 01:58 |
| hsarci | is it a way to execute commands on boot? | 01:58 |
| jrib | hsarci: it's the proper way to edit kernel parameters. You can set default values in sysctl.conf | 01:58 |
| losha | hsarci: on the console during boot. You may need to remove the 'quiet' keyword from /boot/grub/menu.lst to see more debug traces. Alternatively, you can log the output to a file by adding >> /tmp/log to each command e.g. echo Before setting sensitivity >> /tmp/log | 01:59 |
| hsarci | hrm, i can't just do sometihng like add sensitivity=0 to sysctl.conf? | 02:00 |
| losha | ryguy: sorry blondie, maybe you need to say a bit more about what you've tried and what doesn't work | 02:00 |
| hsarci | hold off on the response for a second im gonna /part | 02:01 |
| user1 | Is it possible to install in text mode from the desktop install CD? | 02:01 |
| jrib | hsarci: that's exactly what you do. (with the proper syntax of course) | 02:01 |
| ryguy | losha: alright, I reinstalled grub on sda(My linux partition) and added windows at (hd1,0) to /boot/grub/menu.lst | 02:02 |
| hsarci | well, adding full path /bin/echo didn't do it | 02:02 |

| losha | hsarci: I agree with jrib, edit sysctl.conf if you can find out the correct syntax | 02:04 |
| hsarci | thats what ill do but i don't even know where to start to find correct syntax | 02:04 |
| hsarci | i googled it but didnt get much | 02:04 |
| ryguy | losha: Infact, I didnt do that first. I booted into my live cd and ran `sudo grub` then `root (hd0,0); setup(hd0)` | 02:04 |

| Bluey | user1: what do you mean halts? did the md5 checksums match? | 02:13 |
| vox | ryguy: i'd say what has happened in this: you have disk A and disk B. you install ubuntu on to disk B, but the boot record/menu gets installed on disk A. you then unplug disk B, install windows on disk A, and windows over-writes the boot record and boot menu | 02:13 |
| matt____ | bluey top? | 02:13 |

| hsarci | gotcha | 02:17 |
| flanders | For some reason, autofs is not working for me, even though I configured everything properly. I have a file called /etc/auto.cifs which /etc/auto.master is pointed to. Inside of auto.cifs, I have the format (share_name options remote_share) | 02:17 |

| Bluey | lets md5 checksum - here's where the checksums are stored: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes | 02:17 |
| flanders | I can connect to the remote share with Nautilus, so it's not a connection problem. | 02:17 |
| hsarci | jrib, no good... | 02:17 |
| Bluey | user1: do you know how to md5 checksum a file? | 02:18 |
| user1 | Bluey: Can I run an MD5 checksum from the CD? | 02:18 |
| vox | ryguy: hm. there is a way this could have happened | 02:18 |
| Bluey | user1: you'd run it on the iso you downloaded | 02:18 |
| user1 | Can I Ctrl+Alt+F1 then run md5sum | 02:18 |

| user1 | I'm on a Windows machine | 02:18 |
| Bluey | ahh | 02:18 |
| jrib | hsarci: I'm just telling you that sysctl operates on /proc/sys, not on what you are doing (apparently) | 02:18 |
| vox | ryguy: how familiar are you with udev? | 02:18 |
| Bluey | user1: let me find a windows md5 | 02:18 |
| ryguy | vox: never heard of it but I pick up on things fast | 02:18 |
| hsarci | i just tried it with /proc/sys | 02:18 |
| vox | ryguy: ok cool. basicly, linux doesnt assign devices based on boot priority order. just because a drive is listed as /dev/sda doesnt mean it's the primary sata disk on controller 0, for example | 02:20 |
| ryguy | vox: alright | 02:20 |
| ryguy | vox: should I try auto super grub disk first? | 02:20 |
| vox | ryguy: the ONLY thing that makes sense, is if linux saw the windows disk as the "first" disk, and wrote the boot menu there | 02:21 |
| matt____ | it doesn't look that bad actually, the icons in the bot of he screen are also discolord | 02:21 |
| Bluey | user1: go here and download the md5checksum for windows: http://www.etree.org/md5com.html | 02:21 |

| daerogami | ill ahve to download to Cd and rehash? | 02:25 |
| losha | ryguy: well, I think vox is on the right track about it depending on how the disks are discovered. How about disconnecting the windows disk and seeing if you can ubuntu booting from grub when it's the only disk? | 02:25 |
| daerogami | thx vox | 02:25 |
| daerogami | ill be back when im done, thank god i have FiOS | 02:25 |
| Bluey | daerogami: you'd download the iso to your hard drive, then burn it to a cd using some cd burner programme | 02:26 |

| KittyBoots | How do I setuo a network, I have a router. | 02:43 |
| salax | KittyBoots, nonsense.. u need wires, and switch.. and configure the ips | 02:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | v1tal3, openmosix might not exist anymore. distcc is just to compile c source code - not to useful, unless you're compiling c source code. | 02:43 |
| salax | KittyBoots, go to networking channel | 02:43 |
| KittyBoots | Can anyone connect me to a tutorial on how to set up a home network | 02:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | KittyBoots, to share files/printer with windows/ubuntu look into Samba | 02:44 |

| navap | Can you use scp to move a folder? | 02:46 |
| docro | navap: no, secure-copy not secure mv :) | 02:46 |
| docro | you can use ssh to move a folder | 02:47 |
| navap | Is there an alternative? smv or something like that? | 02:47 |
| v1tal3 | zykotick9: fyi, the openmosix project shut down march 2008, but the source is still available online | 02:47 |
| docro | ssh user@machine mv /path/to/folder /path/to/new | 02:47 |
| navap | /path/to/new is on the new machine? | 02:47 |
| docro | they are both on the new machine | 02:47 |
| docro | if you want to move a local folder you would need to first scp it, then rm the local copy | 02:47 |
| navap | er, my mistake. I meant scp to copy a folder. | 02:48 |
| navap | But there isn't a scp -r like mv has. | 02:49 |
| DaZ | navap: there isn't? :o | 02:49 |
| prince_jammys | someone stole it | 02:50 |

| bastidrazor | navap: yes there is. scp -r /folder user@host:/new/place/ | 02:50 |

| lstarnes | phenrique: it is a complier | 02:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | v1tal3, ya i kinda though something happened to openmosix. it was kinda cool - but needs kernel implementation on all cluster machines - so probably REALLY difficult to implement if not supported at the OS level (ie Ubuntu) -- no idea on alternative cluster software for Ubuntu. Gotta run, so best of luck | 02:51 |
| * navap is blind | 02:51 | |
| phenrique | do you know some IDE? | 02:51 |

| sakthivel | where i acn get non free adobe flash | 03:08 |
| coz_ | tsukiyomi, ok this is not compiling here either ...there is a dependecy missing but also you may have to contact the developer on this one and tell him exactly the errors you get in the terminal | 03:08 |
| eie | Question lol | 03:08 |
| tsukiyomi | bummr i see, some other people got the same error and were able to fix it by installing a old kernel version, what do you think? | 03:09 |
| Xcell | sakthivel- sudo apt-get install ubunu-restricted-extras that will give all you should need | 03:09 |
| Xcell | ubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:09 |

| eie | is there a way to fix it | 03:10 |
| Madcamper | has anyone tried getting the HP TV Hauppauge Tuner to work in ubuntu? | 03:11 |
| sakthivel | yaa i tried to install ubuntu restricted extras.. but error ... cant install ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, | 03:11 |
| coz_ | tsukiyomi, that is certainly one options but i would suggest contacting the developer and letting him know...he will answer and I believe there is an email address for him in that README file | 03:11 |

| I_fallow_jesus | sudo apt-get install ffmpeg | 03:21 |
| InsanePenguin | during the instal of server, it asdks you to select collections of pkgs(lamp, dns, etc) can i add/delete these later? | 03:21 |

| I_fallow_jesus | ffmpeg* | 03:22 |
| preecher | its not installed | 03:23 |
| tetsu_ | then install it | 03:23 |
| evilaim | is there any way that I can remote ssh into a computer, and use cli to watch movies on an account that has the GUI on the pc? | 03:23 |
| coz_ | preecher, sudo apt-get install ffmpeg you will need that | 03:23 |
| preecher | kk thanks | 03:23 |
| vox | evilaim: uh.. it's possible, yes | 03:23 |
| I_fallow_jesus | evilami better set upa ftp than install vlc web plug in | 03:24 |
| evilaim | How? | 03:24 |
| tiger2wander | Where I can get Empathy when I close it? I see it in process list but can not find where to call its contact list. Pidgin has an icon at system tray | 03:24 |
| I_fallow_jesus | I use proftp easy to set up just do sudo apt-get install proftp | 03:25 |
| vox | evilaim: i honestly cant remember off to the top of my head.. it involves alot of piping and stuffing around. havent done it in 2-3 years | 03:25 |
| evilaim | That can't be right haha | 03:25 |
| I_fallow_jesus | ya FTP is a lot better for what you wont might even be faster | 03:25 |
| evilaim | has to be easy | 03:25 |
| I_fallow_jesus | and easyer | 03:25 |
| coz_ | tiger2wander, I would kill it in t he process window reopen it and go to its preferences to see if it has an systray icon options...if not I would switch to pidgin | 03:26 |
| vox | evilaim: the problem is where you're launching it from. if the shell is activated from within the x-session, there's no issue. but by ssh-ing in, you have to "route" the output to the x-session.. and that causes problems | 03:26 |
| tiger2wander | coz_, :) You are not need to kill it, simple open it again. The contact list will bring up again | 03:27 |
| evilaim | :( | 03:27 |
| coz_ | tiger2wander, there you go | 03:27 |
| I_fallow_jesus | what is it you trying to do evilaim?? | 03:27 |
| evilaim | dang | 03:27 |
| vox | evilaim: as i said, it is doable | 03:27 |
| tiger2wander | But the pain is: sometime I have lose message while its contact list is hidden | 03:27 |
| vox | evilaim: but it's not a simple "mplayer $filename" arguement | 03:27 |
| evilaim | hmm | 03:28 |
| I_fallow_jesus | what is it that your trying to do evilaim? | 03:28 |
| vox | evilaim: well think about it. when you open a shell via whatever method (remote ssh, local tty, x-shell, whatever), the output is going to come back to that console. what you're wanting to do is to spawn the process on one sheel, then redirect the output to X.. it's not straight-forward | 03:30 |

| Laibsch | Hi! Any DNS experts around? I have a problem where a host (mail.leggewie.org) resolves fine on one computer but not on another where it is NXDOMAIN. I don't really understand why and would appreciate some help in analysing (dig & friends). | 03:33 |
| momelod | vox: dmraid produces the following error: "either the required RAID set not found or more options required' | 03:33 |
| vox | Laibsch: do they have the same nameservers? | 03:33 |
| Laibsch | no | 03:33 |
| Laibsch | they are completely independent | 03:33 |
| Laibsch | 10.000 km apart computers | 03:33 |
| Laibsch | vox, what do you get for "host mail.leggewie.org"? | 03:34 |
| vox | Laibsch: then whichever nameserver the second one is using, is broken | 03:34 |
| Laibsch | I assume so | 03:34 |
| Laibsch | But I would like to understand a bit more before I contact the nameserver admin | 03:34 |
| momelod | vox: i found others on the forums with the same raid card i had and they said rebuild initrd or use an older kernel which has an older version of dmraid which works with my card | 03:34 |
| vox | momelod: ah. | 03:34 |
| momelod | so is it possible to specify an alternate kernel during installation? | 03:35 |
| vox | momelod: using an older kernel in itself isnt hard, there are how-to's on the ubuntu forums | 03:35 |
| vox | Laibsch: 91.59.59.215 | 03:35 |
| Laibsch | OK | 03:35 |
| Laibsch | that is good | 03:35 |
| vox | momelod: you'll have to install, then build your own kernel | 03:36 |
| Laibsch | This is quite strange | 03:36 |
| momelod | vox: im having problems locating said forum posting.. can u point me in the right direction ? | 03:36 |
| momelod | vox: i cant install b/c it doesnt see my disks.. | 03:36 |
| Laibsch | It works again now, but I've had it failing two times in the past 24 hours | 03:36 |
| vox | momelod: you want to install ubuntu onto that raidset? | 03:36 |
| vox | Laibsch: then i'd say the dns server is flakey | 03:37 |
| momelod | vox: the system has two disks in raid-1.. the only disks in the system | 03:37 |
| Laibsch | vox: I agree | 03:37 |
| Laibsch | It would still be nice to know a bit more about it | 03:37 |
| infamy | Laibsch: Is the computer that is running the dns always accessible? Do you ever lose contact with it? | 03:37 |
| Laibsch | the domain belongs to me | 03:37 |
| Laibsch | and there is always the chance I have set it up incorrectly. | 03:38 |
| vox | momelod: mmmuh. i'm.. not sure how to get around that. throw a post up in the forums, someone more familiar with dmraid may know | 03:38 |
| infamy | For instance, could you keep any other service going on it? | 03:38 |
| momelod | k, thanks | 03:38 |
| Laibsch | infamy: I think the DNS server that is problematic (here in Japan) otherwise works OK | 03:38 |
| Laibsch | I haven't seen any other obvious problems | 03:38 |
| hsarci | anyone know how to run a script after resume? | 03:38 |
| momelod | where can i download old version of ubuntu? | 03:39 |
| vox | Laibsch: could also be a problem with the nameserver of where the domainname is hosted | 03:39 |
| Laibsch | infamy: the host mail.leggewie.org itself is up 24/7 with a dynip | 03:39 |
| bastidrazor | http://releases.ubuntu.com/ momelod | 03:39 |
| Laibsch | vox: could be | 03:39 |
| momelod | bastidrazor: thanks! | 03:39 |
| infamy | Laibsch: Just thinking top down. Make sure that you aren't plain having the dns server dropped off the network before digging into the dns stuff | 03:39 |
| Laibsch | I'm trying to find out | 03:40 |
| Laibsch | infamy: IOW, ping the DNS server before anything else? | 03:40 |
| vox | momelod: 6.06 is as far back as it goes | 03:40 |
| Laibsch | I thought the tool for analyzing DNS problems was dig | 03:40 |
| Laibsch | But I don't "dig it" ;-) 100% | 03:40 |
| InsanePenguin | why is it when i type mail.leggewie.org, i get directed to localhost | 03:41 |
| infamy | Laibsch: Try keeping an ssh session alive on it | 03:41 |
| Laibsch | InsanePenguin: that is the way I set up apache | 03:41 |
| infamy | Or some other sort of server that is easy to setup, like ftp | 03:41 |
| InsanePenguin | ok | 03:41 |
| infamy | Laibsch: Then see if you are getting dropped | 03:41 |
| Laibsch | infamy: I don't understand | 03:41 |
| Laibsch | infamy: I will get dropped at a fixed time of the day | 03:42 |
| Laibsch | DSL reconnect | 03:42 |
| * InsanePenguin stupid IIS keeps restarting, darn i want to use apache | 03:42 | |
| infamy | Ah | 03:42 |
| Laibsch | The connection on this end in Japan is fixed | 03:42 |
| Laibsch | But the one in .de is DSL with a reconnect | 03:42 |
| Laibsch | It should happen +/- 30 minutes from now | 03:43 |
| infamy | Hmm | 03:43 |
| Laibsch | so, I don't quite see what you are trying to achieve with the ssh connection | 03:43 |
| n8tuser | if ip changes, your ssh connection will drop | 03:44 |
| InsanePenguin | yeah, server is finally installed | 03:44 |
| Laibsch | n8tuser: yes, obviously | 03:44 |
| InsanePenguin | is 512mb ram enough | 03:44 |
| Laibsch | IP resolution is broken again | 03:45 |

| Laibsch | n8tuser: resolv.conf has two entries. 192.168.0.1 (the local router) and 61.207.11.153 | 03:47 |

| shane2peru | !mint | 03:48 |

| Laibsch | n8tuser: I looked at the difference in output from "dig mail.leggewie.org@$DNSSERVER" for those two, but can't spot anything obvious. They are both returning NXDOMAIN now. | 03:48 |
| pepee | momelod: I'm trying from debian (is installed) | 03:48 |
| pepee | momelod: but I don't know what it have to do with debian | 03:48 |
| n8tuser | Laibsch -> which dns server are you using? your own? | 03:49 |
| Laibsch | pepee: IOW, you are "upgrading" a debian installation with Ubuntu? Not a good idea, if true. | 03:49 |
| gbear14275 | anyone got any ideas? | 03:49 |
| momelod | pepee: in your fstab file replace the uuids with the dev mappings.. ie: /dev/sda1... | 03:49 |
| Laibsch | n8tuser: no, 61.207.11.153 is from the ISP. | 03:49 |

| cbcbilling | any help plz | 04:06 |
| Laibsch | n8tuser: I think the problem is with the local router (and possibly my DNS setup): http://paste.debian.net/49221/ | 04:06 |

| danielsevigny | Good evening everyone. Is there a way to lock users into their home directories without locking myself out of the system above my home dir? | 04:07 |
| nic | same | 04:07 |
| shane2peru | !question | pistyman1 | 04:07 |
| ubottu | pistyman1: 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. :-) | 04:07 |
| nemesis1911 | hey guys I'm doing "vlc /dev/video1" to play my capture card but I get no sound how do I fix that anyone? | 04:07 |
| danielsevigny | What's the question pistyman? | 04:07 |
| jeeves_Moss | Laibsch, well, I redid it, and it STILL won't let me log in!!! | 04:07 |
| n8tuser | Laibsch-> yes, your router is feeding you a wrong dns server perhaps | 04:07 |
| craig | paranormal activity | 04:08 |
| shane2peru | danielsevigny: I know this can be done with permissions, but I'm not sure how to set them | 04:08 |
| Laibsch | jeeves_Moss: I didn't say it would | 04:08 |
| shawn_ | Which channel should I go to to report bugs | 04:08 |
| blitzer320 | is there a way currently to use my 3.1 jailbroken iphone with ubuntu 9.04 | 04:08 |
| shane2peru | danielsevigny: then if you are administrator, you can always use sudo to get around them, set each home directory to not be read by others | 04:09 |
| Laibsch | jeeves_Moss: You need to make sure the key is listed (saying that for the fourth or fifth time now) | 04:09 |
| danielsevigny | I tried 771 and I can still execute but I'm not a root group member so it locks me out without sudoing everything | 04:09 |
| durt | shawn_, #ubuntu-bugs for bug help | 04:09 |
| genii | shawn_: None. you should report them on the LaunchPad bug report site | 04:09 |
| danielsevigny | 755 locks me out of sudo as well | 04:09 |
| jeeves_Moss | Laibsch, and I deleted the known_hosts file and redid the share | 04:09 |

| shane2peru | danielsevigny: locks you out of sudo, I'm not sure what you mean by that? | 04:10 |
| haytham-med | hi all, in this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=617349 , sysRq doesnot work for me | 04:10 |
| Billiard | gb0: backup the data, then reformat | 04:10 |
| pistyman1 | 1. I have a ATI HD 4650 graphics card, it works when I start the computer up through the DVI port but once ubunto loads it only works through the analog port (the one with the plug plug). How do i get a driver to work for this? or is it normal.. | 04:11 |
| pistyman1 | 2. I cant play any DVDs, mp3's, video, cant use skype blah blah blah. nothing works. how the heck do i get drivers to make it all work? i am using ubuntu version 9.04 | 04:11 |
| danielsevigny | if I set / to 755 it kills my execute access to sudo... Have to recover from disk to set the permissions back to 777 | 04:11 |
| infamy | gb0: What kind of partition was it? | 04:11 |
| gb0 | Billiard | 04:11 |
| n8tuser | danielsevigny -> look into polyinstantiation, i dont konw how it works, there is an article on IBM | 04:11 |
| Laibsch | jeeves_Moss: known_hosts has nothing to do with it ( and I never mentioned the file) | 04:11 |
| gb0 | first, the partition was NTFS | 04:11 |
| infamy | Ah | 04:11 |
| gb0 | but then, i stupid, run he command dd | 04:11 |
| gb0 | and after 5 seconds | 04:11 |
| danielsevigny | polyinstantiation? I'll give it a google. | 04:11 |
| n8tuser | yes polyinstantiation | 04:12 |
| gb0 | i press control + c | 04:12 |
| gb0 | but then, the partition doesnt have anything | 04:12 |
| dajhorn | !medibuntu | pistyman1 | 04:12 |
| ubottu | pistyman1: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 04:12 |
| shane2peru | Laibsch: that was my fault. :) I didn't know about the other file i mentioned, known_hosts | 04:12 |
| shane2peru | Laibsch: for the ssh setup thing | 04:12 |
| pistyman1 | thankyou | 04:12 |
| infamy | gb0: you should try something like this: http://sysblogd.wordpress.com/2008/01/05/data-recovery-with-linux-from-hard-drives-cd-roms-or-dvds/ | 04:12 |
| dajhorn | pistyman1: Medibuntu has the goodies like libdvdcss that let you play DVD movies. | 04:12 |
| pistyman1 | wicked | 04:13 |
| n8tuser | gb0 -> what was your dd command like? dd by itself should have done nothing, it requires parameters | 04:13 |
| Laibsch | shane2peru: I know. But I already pointed jeeves_Moss to the keys file for so many times now. But he just won't listen. That's his not your fault. | 04:13 |
| skinnY | Any wget experts around ? How would i get everything in ? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/beta/images/netboot/ | 04:13 |
| dajhorn | pistyman1: To use all the fancy gadgets in your video card, you'll need to learn about the fglrx package. | 04:13 |
| daerogami | alright, running 9.04 and all the updates are installed, just one problem, i dont think ubuntu likes intel gfx chipsets. Is there a fix for this? | 04:13 |
| pistyman1 | one other thing, why when the DVD didnt work and i clicked "search for drivers" it god nothing? or did it just search my computer and not the net? | 04:13 |
| Laibsch | n8tuser: 192.168.0.1 is the router itself. And apparently it chokes on *.leggewie.org being a wildcard for mail.leggewie.org while mail.leggewie.org itself also has a defined IP address. Not sure if that is an incorrect setup. | 04:14 |
| daerogami | vox you still here? | 04:14 |
| pistyman1 | thanks dajhorn and ubottu! | 04:14 |
| n8tuser | Laibsch -> yes most likely, your router is not getting the correct feed, and also uses what it stores on your /etc/resolv.conf | 04:14 |
| n8tuser | skinnY -> look here for tricks http://lifehacker.com/software/top/geek-to-live--mastering-wget-161202.php | 04:15 |

| Laibsch | @all: is it OK to have *.leggewie.org as a DNS wildcard pointing to mail.leggewie.org, plus an A record for mail.leggewie.org? Or is that asking for trouble when resolving mail.leggewie.org? | 04:15 |

| daerogami | anyone have an issue on ubuntu with Dell issued intel chipsets? | 04:16 |

| Alan502 | i have a problem with my graphic card, its a mobile intel | 04:16 |
| Alan502 | Apparently is a bug in Ubuntu, bug! lol | 04:17 |
| daerogami | Alan502, is your 3d redering etc sluggish? | 04:17 |
| daerogami | rendering* | 04:17 |
| momelod | nemesis1911: whats the output of `dmesg |grep -i ivtv` | 04:17 |
| LinuX2half | does anyone know how to boot smart boot manager as a bootloader? | 04:17 |
| Alan502 | i can render the 3d desktop, when my display loads well it works perfect | 04:17 |
| Alan502 | but sometimes, in a random boot | 04:17 |
| Alan502 | it displays an error "Ubuntu will load in low graphics mode..." | 04:18 |
| Alan502 | then i have to restart | 04:18 |
| Alan502 | so it will load correctly, a friend told me it was a bug in the kernel | 04:18 |
| daerogami | hmm, i assume its shared memory? | 04:18 |
| nemesis1911 | momelod I get the the application is not reading fast enough.. and that all encoder YUV stream buffers full Dropping Data | 04:18 |
| Alan502 | mmm i yeah, im not sure but most probably | 04:18 |

| shane2peru | DoctorLes: this is it. :) | 04:19 |
| DoctorLes | Thanks! | 04:19 |

| durt | DoctorLes, not a site, but a channel, and you can get help for all levels | 04:20 |
| Alan502 | but i like the sleekness of ubuntu :P | 04:20 |
| momelod | nemesis1911: all that is normal. i wonder tho if your vlc is not setup to use the correct sound device? | 04:20 |
| shane2peru | !who | danielsevigny | 04:20 |
| ubottu | danielsevigny: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 04:20 |
| momelod | mine is set to alsa default | 04:20 |
| daerogami | Alan502, i read that apparently intel supports 3rd party OSs so im gonna check their site for drivers | 04:20 |
| momelod | nemesis1911: also try the mythbuntu support channel.. people there will have experience w/ your issue | 04:20 |
| nemesis1911 | momelod: I get avi's to play with vlc fine.. its just when I try to play back the capcard | 04:20 |
| Alan502 | thanks! but.. actually | 04:21 |
| nemesis1911 | momelod: thx for your time | 04:21 |

| Alan502 | i think i have the drivers already, daerogami | 04:21 |

| DoctorLes | One is a laptop and the other is a desktop. the former has ATI graphics and the latter has Nvidia | 04:22 |
| shane2peru | DoctorLes: 9.1 is still in beta testing, so you can expect problems with that | 04:22 |
| nemesis1911 | momelod: where dous the mpg go? | 04:22 |
| Alan502 | i installed them the other day, researching i found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 , daerogami | 04:22 |
| DoctorLes | K | 04:22 |
| shane2peru | !karmic | DoctorLes | 04:22 |

| momelod | nemesis1911: the present working directory .. or do cat /dev/video1 > /home/somplace/Desktop/test.mpg | 04:23 |
| nemesis1911 | momelod: same thing video.. and no sound | 04:23 |
| DoctorLes | cool. Thanks | 04:23 |
| daerogami | Alan502, is there a way to look up your Gfx card device info from ubuntu? | 04:23 |
| danielsevigny | Consider the following path and user permissions /users(770)/tempuser(750)/ .Could this user still access programs found in other paths? MYSQL for instance? | 04:23 |
| distrohopper | cd /eggdrop | 04:24 |
| danielsevigny | if users belongs to root and tempuser is the owner of tempuser | 04:24 |
| distrohopper | lol oops | 04:24 |
| Alan502 | yeah, glxinfo can do it i think, daerogami | 04:24 |
| momelod | nemesis1911: `file upirmpegfile.mpg` | 04:24 |
| shane2peru | danielsevigny: you should be able to safely set the permissions of user folders to 750 or in theory even 700 and they should be able to run fine | 04:24 |

| pistyman1 | niiiiiiice!! | 04:28 |
| danielsevigny | I don't want them changing any other files either though. I don't want them to touch outside of the home directory I set for them without making them unable to execute programs and without affecting myself. | 04:28 |

| pistyman1 | ook | 04:29 |
| danielsevigny | I've looked at that several times. I'll go reread it for the 5th time. maybe I'm missing something obvious | 04:29 |
| shane2peru | danielsevigny: I'm not really familiar with doing that, so I'm not really able to help you much | 04:29 |
| shane2peru | danielsevigny: it is going to have to be something more than just permissions I think. | 04:30 |

| Bajang | im trying to write a sh file that will start apache2, is this correct sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start | 04:44 |
| Bajang | it keeps saying this when i try to run it sudo: ./start.sh: command not found | 04:44 |
| leaf-sheep | danielsevigny: You don't have to ssh in if you knew the ssh user/password will work firsthandedly. But yeah, you can do it. Or you can ssh in and scp right back to your IP. | 04:44 |
| bt_ | n8tuser it doesnt even show that i have wireless network | 04:44 |
| Bajang | im sure im doing something wrong, never done bash before | 04:44 |
| prince_jammys | Bajang: make it executable. chmod +x yourfile | 04:45 |
| bastidrazor | Bajang: if you install apache via apt-get/synaptic then it starts on boot | 04:45 |
| leaf-sheep | danielsevigny: I suppose it's best to ssh in, find it working, then quit. scp something to the server. Also, start using scp more and you'll understand this easily. It is easy tool too. | 04:45 |
| n8tuser | bt_ -> then you dont have the correct driver loaded for it, is the card even recognized? type dmesg and look for it in the list | 04:45 |
| Bajang | i know it does, but i will be stoping it and stuff | 04:45 |
| danielsevigny | so scp can't be used at same time as ssh | 04:45 |
| n8tuser | danielsevigny -> scp uses ssh underneath it | 04:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | danielsevigny, it will depend on how sshd is configured - you can set concurrent connections in there i think | 04:46 |
| leaf-sheep | danielsevigny: No, you can ssh into the server many as you want. | 04:46 |
| paultag | right ZykoticK9. | 04:46 |
| danielsevigny | so if I were to say create a file while in ssh i'd have to make a new terminal window for the scp for the file I want? | 04:47 |

| n8tuser | grkblood13 -> i dont thinks so | 04:51 |
| eross | Doc_Lappy - is your drive on your win 7 desktop set up as a shared folder? | 04:51 |
| grkblood13 | n8tuser, guess its not worth stopping my transfer to find out | 04:51 |
| Doc_Lappy | yep | 04:52 |
| n8tuser | grkblood13 -> rather it depends on the flag you used with rsync, if its first time or second time around | 04:52 |
| eross | you have samba installed? | 04:52 |
| Doc_Lappy | i used it earlier with winxp pro just fine | 04:52 |
| leaf-sheep | danielsevigny: What issue? Are you transferring big file? | 04:52 |
| danielsevigny | nope. just txt. | 04:52 |

| eross | what i do sometimes is open up nautilus or dolphin, type in: smb://192.168.IPOFWIN7/ | 04:52 |

| blueyaway | tsukiyomi: why would you need that? | 05:43 |

| blueyaway | cody_: it depends on whether the printer has networking capabilities - mine does NOT | 05:44 |
| tsukiyomi | because i have gspca and on the kernel i have it does not compiles | 05:44 |
| Viking667 | 'llo all. I'm having a little trouble with jackd. Every time I try to start it up (via qjackctl) it claims that hw:0 is in use, and that I should shut down the program using that interface. Problem is, I've got no sound servers running. | 05:44 |

| Jordan_U | MoralExpl: Press "M" to unmute it | 06:38 |

| losha | Ali_nz: all modern drives remap bad blocks automatically if they can. If you're still seeing bad blocks, that usually means the drive has failed to remap them. That's generally a bad sign that your drive is on its last legs... | 06:41 |
| Jordan_U | MoralExpl: You can get a newer kernel version from the Ubuntu kernel PPA, they aren't supported and may not work with your video card drivers but there's no reason not to try | 06:41 |
| Ali_nz | losha: so does badblocks detect remapped sectors or not? | 06:41 |
| PhantomLink[web] | First of all, the display resolution is way off, and secondly, the wlan utility is refusing to connect to our network now. | 06:42 |
| Jordan_U | MoralExpl: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 06:42 |

| Jordan_U | PhantomLink[web]: What problems? | 06:43 |
| pistyman | now how do i play a disc!? | 06:43 |
| tsukiyomi | Jordan_U thnxs i had no idea | 06:43 |
| tsukiyomi | it is the web cam driver right? | 06:43 |
| Jordan_U | tsukiyomi: np | 06:44 |
| Jordan_U | tsukiyomi: Yes | 06:44 |
| PhantomLink[web] | Jordan_U: First of all, the display resolution is way off, and secondly, the wlan utility is refusing to connect to our network now. | 06:44 |
| tsukiyomi | well i hope it works | 06:44 |
| losha | Ali_nz: No, the disk hides the fact that it has remapped the sectors. As I say, if you're actually seeing bad blocks on your filesystems, that usually means the drive has given up trying to conceal the defects, and it's a bad sign. You can look at the SMART data on your drive via smartmontools http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T. | 06:44 |
| yankees | pistyman : the same thing like you do when playing disc on WMP | 06:44 |
| tsukiyomi | will install it tomorrow see you awsome comunity have a good night / day whatever (: | 06:45 |
| Jordan_U | PhantomLink[web]: "way off" like 800x600 and probably using vesa or another problem? | 06:45 |
| Stronze | daz - i cant seem to edit it from running cd | 06:45 |
| pistyman | p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd:///media/cdrom0'. Check the log for details. | 06:45 |
| PhantomLink[web] | not sure what system its using, but it's at 1024x768 | 06:45 |
| Stronze | daz - sudo gedit etc/X11/xorg.conf is an empty file when ran in terminal | 06:45 |

| Ali_nz | losha: ok, thanks, yeah I knew if it ran out it was bad, but wasnt sure whether bad blcoks was showing remaps or not | 06:46 |
| DaZ | Stronze: so it's either nonreadable or you didn't hit it ;f | 06:46 |
| Jordan_U | PhantomLink[web]: That means that the drivers for your card failed to load for some reason and the generic drivers are being used instead | 06:46 |
| Jordan_U | PhantomLink[web]: By "removed the screen" do you mean physically or in your xorg.conf? | 06:46 |
| losha | Ali_nz: Next step is to use smartctl, or download and run the manufacturer's diagnostic disk... | 06:47 |
| silent_ | kampung | 06:47 |
| PhantomLink[web] | i've been trying to reconfigure xorg but i can't remember the command for it | 06:47 |
| Stronze | daz - cant find /mountpoint in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 06:47 |
| PhantomLink[web] | Jordan_U: physically removed it | 06:47 |
| Jordan_U | PhantomLink[web]: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 06:47 |

I don't see how you could do it without having to at least boot a CD with AV software on it, and then update the definitions before running, given how quickly the virus stuff mutates. It'd connstantly be out of date. Sorry, I don't see a better solution than what you're already doing, unless it's one of those sites that claims to virus-scan you from their web-site.

| daevski | ariqs: what kind of crash? Maybe you can use Opera. It's very good currently... | 06:59 |
| sebsebseb | Rubik_: If you have done 9.04 with Ext3 which is the default, you should really clean install for the Ext4 and Grub 2 in Karmic | 06:59 |

| yankees | ariqs : how bout you upgrade to ff 3.5 ? | 07:00 |
| sebsebseb | Rubik_: If you want fast boot up and that, yep clean install so you get nice Ext4 support, the Ext3 to Ext4 conversion probably won't be good enough | 07:00 |

| flyman | arrrghhh: what part fails? | 07:38 |

| gerald | I wouldn't mind if the drive spun down at some reasonable interval of non-use (as intended, especially when running on battery power), but up/down several times per min is just wrong | 07:50 |

| Jordan_U | daevski: The stand alone version doesn't support 64 bit, see: http://docs.aptana.com/docs/index.php/Installing_Aptana_on_Linux#Running_Aptana_Studio_on_64-bit_Linux | 07:56 |
| Sirisian_ | iceroot, thank you. It worked :P I accidently capitalized the L in linuz | 07:56 |
| daevski | Jordan_U: I'm running a 32bit version of ubuntu. | 07:56 |
| losha | gerald: um, it might. And the chances of you finding someone on irc who knows a secret about this that isn't already on google seem slim. But try disabling acpi anyway. If it works, you get to choose between suspend/resume and disk spindown... | 07:57 |
| daevski | Jordan_U: If I'm running on a 64bit java package, how can I find which java I need? | 07:57 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: can you close network manager and open terminal and type sudo ifconfig ra0 inet up | 07:57 |
| flyman | better yet | 07:58 |
| flyman | keep network manager | 07:58 |
| Jordan_U | daevski: What is the output of "uname -a" ? | 07:58 |
| flyman | type sudo ifconfig ra0 inet down and then up | 07:58 |

| Galexcd | thanks gerald, whois worked, but I apparently need whois 4.7.33 for something to work, because the version it installed 4.7.30 has a pretty major bug in it | 08:00 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, ok | 08:00 |
| Galexcd | where would I get version 4.7.33? | 08:00 |
| Jordan_U | daevski: np, even though their page says the stand alone won't work you can run it in a chroot ( might be easier to just run it as an eclipse plugin though ) | 08:00 |
| tasslehoff | Hi. I have a windows laptop where the entire HD is encrypted with truecrypt. Can I install Ubuntu using the installer in Windows, without having to decrypt/encrypt the drive? | 08:01 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: when you type sudo ifconfig look at the ra0 output,does it show it connected? | 08:01 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, still won't connect. and i think that it's weird that only _some_ of the networks show... | 08:01 |
| flyman | are those network wpa or wep? | 08:02 |
| flyman | that show | 08:02 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, mine is wpa. the unsecured neighboor's network doesn't show. mine shows when i take all the security off of it, but i still can't connect. | 08:02 |
| flyman | also make: *** [LINUX] Error 2 occurs when the driver config file isn't completely configured properly to the system paths | 08:02 |
| losha | Galexcd: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whois/4.7.33. If you can't use google to find source code you're probably going to have difficulty compiling it... | 08:03 |

| flyman | you may also be missing crypt_md5.c | 08:03 |
| flyman | and other linux modules | 08:03 |
| Galexcd | I know how to compile source code, the problem is I only have ssh access to the server... sigh... I was hoping not to have to download a package and compile it through a terminal... | 08:04 |
| Galexcd | its just so much different when I'm at the actual computer I'm working at | 08:04 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, should i paste the output of the failed make? i really want this to work. | 08:05 |
| === kb is now known as Guest12691 | ||

| flyman | arrrghhh: yeah if you could that would be great | 08:05 |
| sid1monu | i cannot mount my 500 gb hard disk | 08:06 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, i think i have all of those. 1 sec. | 08:06 |

| Viking667 | sid1monu: what OS and filesystem was it created with? | 08:06 |
| losha | sid1monu: ok, last customer before bedtime. Is is sata, pata or usb, and what os version are you running? | 08:06 |
| Viking667 | oh yeah, and is it sata, pata or USB? | 08:07 |
| sid1monu | ntfs | 08:07 |
| Viking667 | (or firewire) | 08:07 |
| sid1monu | sata | 08:07 |

| sid1monu | non raid | 08:07 |
| Viking667 | man ntfsmount | 08:07 |
| sid1monu | i tried | 08:07 |
| Viking667 | that _may_ help, others here may have a better idea | 08:07 |
| edulacomadreja | does someone understand "update-rc.d"? | 08:08 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, http://pastebin.com/d519a7eb7 | 08:08 |
| losha | sid1monu: before you do that, can you run dmesg | egrep sd and see if the kernel even admits it sees the drive... | 08:08 |
| Viking667 | edulacomadreja: hm? What's up? | 08:08 |
| Viking667 | losha: are you thinking what I'm thinking? (missing SATA driver) | 08:08 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: that output is doing sudo make? | 08:09 |
| Viking667 | ewwww. | 08:09 |
| losha | Viking667: missing sata drivers sounds unlikely in 9.04. I'm thinking bad hardware actually... | 08:09 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, yea... i couldn't su to root for some reason. | 08:09 |
| Viking667 | mrm. More likely. | 08:09 |
| sid1monu | it worked on the live cd | 08:10 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: you mean typing su <enter> doesn't bring the prompt to login as root? | 08:10 |
| Sirisian_ | iceroot, hmm I just put the vmLinux into the file and renamed it and then ran the grub-update command but when I try to book into the kernel from grub it says: Grub Error 13: "Invalid or unsupported executable format". Did I miss a step? | 08:10 |
| edulacomadreja | Viking667: hi! | 08:10 |
| losha | sid1monu: that's good, it means the hardware is probably ok. So run the command I asked for and tell us what it says... | 08:10 |
| Viking667 | edulacomadreja: so, what is the problem you're having? You haven't explained in the past ten lines, and I've got a -ENOMINDREAD | 08:10 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, it does, but says i fail to authenticate. | 08:10 |
| flyman | im guessing you never setup the root password | 08:10 |
| Sirisian_ | iceroot, boot* | 08:10 |
| edulacomadreja | Viking667: I have this script http://coquizadora.com/fecha.html | 08:10 |
| flyman | thats ok | 08:10 |
| losha | Viking667: -ENOMINDREAD :-) | 08:11 |
| Doc_Lappy | could anybody walk me thru the connect to server to another pc thru ethernet? | 08:11 |
| Jordan_U | !root | arrrghhh | 08:11 |
| ubottu | arrrghhh: 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 | 08:11 |

| gerald | losha, I just found -Z in the hdparm man page, and that seems to have fixed my problem (my drive is a seagate, though not the model mentioned in the man page) | 08:11 |
| edulacomadreja | Viking667: so if i run it with /etc/init.d/fecha start it works | 08:11 |
| arrrghhh | Jordan_U, yea, i realize that. someone was asking me to authenticate as root instead of using sudo. | 08:12 |
| Viking667 | si... | 08:12 |
| Viking667 | sorry, yes... | 08:12 |
| losha | gerald: cool. I guess you own all those google posters a post of your own then... | 08:12 |
| losha | gerald: own -> owe | 08:12 |
| gerald | yeah :) | 08:12 |
| Doc_Lappy | >hablas espanlol Viking667? | 08:12 |

| Viking667 | Doc_Lappy: naah. Just one or two words. | 08:12 |
| sid1monu | what next | 08:12 |
| Sirisian_ | iceroot, even odder is that it says "ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped" on it. Not sure if you're there. | 08:12 |
| edulacomadreja | oh well, i'm spanish so... | 08:13 |
| edulacomadreja | jejeje | 08:13 |
| Sirisian_ | iceroot, I mean when I run "file" | 08:13 |
| losha | sid1monu: very good, I see the 500GB drive is /dev/sda. Next, run sudo fdisk -l <-- that's a lower case L | 08:13 |
| Viking667 | edulacomadreja: anyhow, what issue are you having? | 08:13 |
| edulacomadreja | in the spanish channel there are only 40 people, 3 of them chatting about the weather | 08:13 |
| trijntje | when I try to remove all KDE packages vlc,wine and virtualbox are automatically added to the list of programs to be removed, why? | 08:13 |
| edulacomadreja | ok, i'm sure that the script works | 08:13 |
| Viking667 | _not_ with ubuntu-es, what's the problem with the script? | 08:14 |
| edulacomadreja | but... | 08:14 |

| edulacomadreja | on startup it runs (cuz i tried "echo 'hola' > /hola" before the while loop and it wrote it) | 08:15 |
| trijntje | Jordan_U, but how, if vbox etc are not in the list of programs I tell apt to remove? | 08:15 |
| trijntje | Lint, i dont know, how can i check? | 08:15 |

| arrrghhh | flyman, any ideas? | 08:15 |
| lilzeus | I have a Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 3000 and I am trying to get all the buttons working. Instructions I find say to modify the InputDevice section of my xorg.conf file but there is no InputDevice section...where do I make the changes? | 08:16 |
| Jordan_U | trijntje: I am guessing that you are removing qt, which is what all KDE apps use but also what VLC and Virtualbox use | 08:16 |
| Lint | trijntje: in Synaptic, in Package menu | 08:16 |
| Jordan_U | trijntje: Do you know what dependencies are? | 08:16 |
| Viking667 | lilzeus: you create one... man page for xorg.conf | 08:16 |
| Doc_Lappy | either one of the connect to server or the network | 08:16 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: it seems a lot of people have the same issue running the newer kernel and tying to compile on it with this driver. However, people are having success using backports | 08:16 |
| losha | sid1monu: also good, it sees an NTFS volume on /dev/sda1. Let's try and mount it: repeat after me: sudo mkdir /mnt/spare; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/spare | 08:16 |
| trijntje | Jordan_U, yes | 08:16 |
| Viking667 | edulacomadreja: at what stage does it stop? Before the nc or after the nc? | 08:16 |
| lstarnes | Jordan_U: vlc technically uses wx, which can integrate qt or gtk | 08:16 |
| === Guest35588 is now known as fsih3489543 | ||
| arrrghhh | flyman, i installed backports. do i need to reboot? | 08:17 |
| flyman | even on other linux distros people are having the exact issue with this kernel | 08:17 |
| trijntje | Jordan_U, so I should keep all packages related to Qt? | 08:17 |
| lilzeus | Viking667: will I need to restart? | 08:17 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, i've tried a buncha different kernels. do i need to reboot after the backports install? someone else suggested that as well. | 08:17 |
| Jordan_U | lstarnes: Nope, strait qt since 0.9 | 08:18 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: im sure it wouldn't hurt to try. It is possible something may not have gotten adapted. | 08:18 |
| edulacomadreja | i really don't know, but i guess that it stops trying to use the nc | 08:18 |
| Viking667 | Restart the X server, probably | 08:18 |
| Viking667 | edulacomadreja: hm. So you don't know either. | 08:18 |
| arrrghhh | flyman, i just don't know what i need to do to enable the backports after installing them. assuming that it worked. | 08:18 |
| arrrghhh | reboot time, brb. | 08:18 |
| scandragon | Hi, I'm having some trouble accessing shared folders from windows computers | 08:18 |

| Viking667 | lilzeus: log out, wait for a new login | 08:18 |
| === shrini__ is now known as shrini | ||
| Viking667 | That _should_ do it | 08:18 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: I think after a reboot it should be automatically adapted. | 08:18 |
| Doc_Lappy | hi scandragon i'm having the same problem | 08:18 |
| Jordan_U | trijntje: The easiest thing to do would probably be to just add vlc vbox etc back afterward, configuration files are saved so you shouldn't lose anything by reinstalling them | 08:19 |
| edulacomadreja | nope, but i also tried writing to a file in the loop instead of the nc line | 08:19 |
| Galexcd | sigh... whois 4.7.33 has an error in it's make file... | 08:19 |
| flyman | I mean, in worse worse case, always can use ndiswrapper | 08:19 |

| flyman | if we don't have to, great but its looking more like we might | 08:25 |

| Viking667 | The1Joebob: lol. yeah. | 08:25 |
| flyman | arrrghhh: but this is half the fun of new hardware, to make it work | 08:26 |

| Sirisian_ | why do the kernels in grub has an initrd? Why doesn't the kernels made with make have one of those. When you run update-grub and it installs the kernels by writing into menu.lst it doesn't add any initrd line for the new kernel. That file seems to be important since I can't boot a kernel without it | 08:42 |

| thermal_ | hey I recently switched back to linux after running osx for a few years where I fell in love with quicksilver. I'm currently looking for a linux equivalent that handles context switching | 08:49 |
| MonsieurBon | encrypted, I don't understand, what you're trying to tell me.... | 08:49 |
| C0nn0R | If not then you can download 3.5 and tweak .bashrc to run ff-3.5 as default. | 08:49 |
| thermal_ | I've played around with gnome-do, but you can switch back to previous applications which for me was the best feature of quicksilver, it allowed me to use muscle memory to switch between applications rather than having to look at the alt-tab windows | 08:49 |
| C0nn0R | thermal_: tryed with "apt-cache search quicksilver" ib terminal to find an alt ? | 08:50 |
| thermal_ | does anyone know of a linux quicksilver equivalent that will allow context switching? | 08:50 |
| thermal_ | well there definitely isn't a quicksilver port | 08:50 |
| thermal_ | and doing an apt-cache search returns only gnome-do | 08:50 |
| C0nn0R | Hmm... | 08:51 |
| Bluey | can someone take a loog a these log entries and tell me what's going on? I was NOT on my machine at all when these errors were logged: http://paste.ubuntu.com/294474/ | 08:51 |
| C0nn0R | Tryed using conext switching with apt-cache ? | 08:51 |
| thermal_ | gnome-do is nice for launching apps, but really I want to jump back and forth | 08:51 |
| thermal_ | I want to switch between my current vim, terminal and firefox windows | 08:51 |
| mgmuscari | is there some way that i can configure my xorg.conf to gracefully handle me switching back and forth in the bios between the discrete ATi chip in my machine and the intel integrated graphics? | 08:51 |
| thermal_ | hrmm... let me check that out | 08:51 |
| C0nn0R | If window switching then use alt-tab or custom keybindings. | 08:51 |
| thermal_ | yeah I might try and setup some custom keybindings | 08:52 |
| mgmuscari | i just had a very unpleasant experience figuring out how to hackily unlock my root password just so that i could fix xorg.conf and boot back to gdm... | 08:52 |
| C0nn0R | I run fluxbox on my systems and using custom keybindings and it works great. | 08:52 |
| C0nn0R | mgmuscari: We all have been there before.... | 08:52 |
| C0nn0R | Ugh, learning at first is a pain but great once you have it working. | 08:53 |
| mgmuscari | Bluey: that just looks like memory swap stuff... | 08:53 |
| encrypted | MonsieurBon: that why I'm use my nick encrypted. hard to touch again. | 08:53 |
| Bluey | mgmuscari: so nothing to worry about? | 08:53 |
| thermal_ | I really don't like using alt tab to switch between apps when I'm coding, it completely breaks my concentration, as little of a difference as looking at an alt-tab list sounds, I've found that it does make a huge difference in concentration compared to having a direct set of keys that my fingers automatically know for switching to an app | 08:53 |
| MonsieurBon | argh | 08:53 |
| mgmuscari | Bluey: where's that coming from? if you're worried that someone is "hacking" your system, i would say probably not... | 08:54 |
| Bluey | no I've never seen this in the log that's all | 08:54 |
| thermal_ | I just downloaded the source code for gnome launch box and quicksilver tonight | 08:55 |
| thermal_ | gnome launch box is similar but hasn't been touched basically since it was released | 08:55 |
| mgmuscari | Bluey: i just see a bunch of swap diagnostics here | 08:56 |
| thermal_ | and while gnome-do is on the right track, the fact that it is written in C# is a big turnoff for working on it | 08:56 |
| Bluey | mgmuscari: okay i am headed off to bed then -- my thanks.... | 08:56 |

| stanley | I was dual booting with Win7 and Debian. I booted into Ubuntu 9.04 and went to install it. I deleted my 3 Debian partitions and created a new swap and root parition for Ubuntu and installed (all partitions for Win and Ubuntu are on the same HD). Now after it finished installing I'm sitting at "GRUB loading, please wait .... Error 17" | 09:02 |
| MonsieurBon | asfjio, your password is stored in the keyring manager. Of course it can't be stored as a hash value because it has to be available for the system to use. Usually you have to unlock the keyring with your password once per session. | 09:03 |
| indus | mistrynitesh: https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ppa | 09:04 |
| asfjio | MonsieurBon: the only unlock was do you want to allow -> "deny", "allow once", "allow all" and no asking for my pass. | 09:05 |

| psycho_oreos | its most likely not mounted or something nasty happened | 09:07 |
| asfjio | MonsieurBon: any solution? is the problem in my keyring manager? | 09:07 |
| MonsieurBon | asfjio, maybe your password was stored. If you open Synaptic you have to enter the password. If you close it and open it again => no password is asked. So maybe you just entered your password for something a short time before. | 09:07 |
| MonsieurBon | asfjio, I don't think there's a problem. | 09:07 |
| indus | sabag: check under /etc/host | 09:07 |
| sabag | it is wirking, he has PX on him | 09:07 |
| MonsieurBon | asfjio, you could try to log out and log in again and then access your keyring and see if a password is asked. | 09:08 |

| Balsaq | will buntu run well on 2.4g...8kb L1....512 L2....256 rdram....60 hd? | 09:28 |
| ariqs | yes | 09:28 |
| DJones | !requirements | Balsaq | 09:28 |
| ubottu | Balsaq: Hardware requirements to install, boot and comfortably use Ubuntu are listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements - For a !flavor with lower requirements, see !Xubuntu | 09:28 |
| Balsaq | the 256 scaresme | 09:28 |
| Balsaq | does the 512 L2 cache work with the 256 rdram to make it feel like 768 ram? | 09:29 |
| DJones | Balsaq: It should run, although the recommended memory is 384Mb, so its likely to be quite slow | 09:30 |
| Balsaq | i thought so...was wondering if the 512 L2 make up for it | 09:30 |
| claude47 | Balsaq no L2 using cpu cache... ram.. | 09:30 |
| Balsaq | bummer-rdram is really expensive | 09:31 |
| Balsaq | dang puter is only worth 50 bucks | 09:31 |
| claude47 | is like L1+L2+L3=total ram.. but "L" means how priority level ram is it L1 fast L2 slower L3 slowest.. | 09:31 |
| claude47 | use swaping if u have low ram... <256 | 09:32 |
| Balsaq | hmmm...what is that | 09:32 |
| Balsaq | swaping | 09:33 |
| DJones | !swap | Balsaq | 09:33 |
| ubottu | Balsaq: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 09:33 |
| claude47 | swap like hdd-ram if ram using full then swaping means ram->ram-hdd->ram is putting ram files to hdd if it full.. | 09:33 |
| MonsieurBon | Is it possible and if yes how do I change the password for my harddrive encryption? I encrypted my whole harddrive (well, almost so) during installation with the alternate cd. | 09:33 |
| claude47 | yes... | 09:33 |
| ariqs | He'd just have to disable the pretty eyecandy | 09:33 |
| claude47 | but i using Truecrypt use /home folder is faster crypt files.. | 09:34 |
| DJones | Balsaq: It might be worth you having a look at xubuntu which has lower hardware requirements than ubuntu, that may be an alternative solution | 09:34 |
| DJones | !xubuntu | Balsaq | 09:34 |
| ubottu | Balsaq: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 09:34 |
| claude47 | then no need install all.. | 09:34 |
| thermal_ | C0nn0R, heh.. I might have found a potential solution for linux quicksilver | 09:34 |
| Balsaq | well ihave both discs ubub and xubu | 09:34 |

| shakya | hi there. i have a probably simple question.. when i first installed ubuntu, i had an icon in the panel for tomboy notes which, when clicked, would expand all of my notes above everything else very conveniently with one click... | 10:15 |
| shakya | now ive managed to change that so when i click the icon, i get a menu allowing me to manage notes... | 10:15 |
| MrGoodkat | saving the doc to odt fixes the problem partially, the characters which are saved as header/footer still dont get printed | 10:15 |
| shakya | what to do?! :P | 10:15 |

| ubuntu_ | ikonia hmm | 10:24 |
| ikonia | ubuntu_: you need to boot from a livecd, make sure your root option is set to point at the partition to contain your /boot file system, then re-reun setup onto the mbr of your boot disk | 10:25 |
| indus | ikonia: maybe its a wubi install | 10:25 |

| claude47 | easy way install grub is qemu using.. if has 2 computer... | 10:25 |
| indus | Zryder28: | 10:25 |
| ikonia | ubuntu_: ok - so you need to open a grub shell, re run "root" options to make sure it points at your /boot file system, then re-apply setup to write that change to the mbr | 10:26 |
| indus | ubuntu_: just type sudo grub at the terminal prompt | 10:26 |

| pablo_ | hello | 11:14 |
| mechdave | azlon, look at man interfaces to help you understand what we will do to save your routing table | 11:14 |
| Slart | niadh: is it listed when you run "cat /proc/asound/cards"? | 11:14 |
| David_aka_theSAI | hi ther ikonia the version of eBOX is v1.2.1 | 11:15 |
| azlon | mechdave, reading | 11:15 |
| niadh | Slart: I believe so, a USB sound card shows up there and it's the only external USB sound card I have, so baring my motherboard doing something weird with internal sound cards I can only assume it's the case | 11:16 |
| ikonia | David_aka_theSAI: no - what's the version of ubuntu you are using, or where did you get the cd you used to install ? | 11:16 |
| mechdave | azlon, ok we need to add your gateway address to ppp0 by using the gateway XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX | 11:17 |
| mechdave | azlon, to /etc/network/interfaces | 11:17 |
| azlon | mechdave, ok | 11:17 |
| Slart | niadh: webcams might show up as sound cards as well (if they have a built in microphone).. but anyways.. if it shows up in that list it should be usable by alsa.. there might be driver problems though that prevent it from working though.. or configuration problems.. the easiest way, if you ask me, would be to google for +ubuntu +YOUR_SOUND_CARD | 11:18 |
| azlon | mechdave, i have 2 lines in there right now, "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback" | 11:18 |
| azlon | mechdave, should i add "gateway 192.168.0.1"? | 11:18 |
| Slart | niadh: and see if someone else has had the same problems.. it might just be that you need to wait for a new version of alsa.. or it could be as simple as changing a couple of characters in a config file.. hard to tell without knowing more | 11:18 |

| Slart | sieggie: I'm not sure but I don't think that's how dhcp does it.. say there are no free addresses left.. should the new computer that is requesting an address just get a "no" ? isn't it better to give it an address that isn't currently used= | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 11:49 |
| sieggie | hi bazhang and Slart: there will always be free address, it's just that for this particular group here in our office, it requires that the ip address of each computer should be refreshed with new ones after say 2 hours...we will be alotting big block of ip address to them... | 11:49 |

| reeniginEesreveR | bazhang, for some reason power failure is pretty common here and everytime it happens, i have to restart the machine just to get the ip address again | 11:56 |
| azlon | mechdave, ok got it... i was just googling how to rename a file but i can leave it as set-routes as long as i have chmod +x right? | 11:56 |

| claude47 | uninstall antivirus program.. | 12:34 |
| mechdave | azlon, try that | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | I doubt if the AV software did anything to the xsplash boot screen or X settings. | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | i'd go for uninstalling the AV | 12:35 |
| claude47 | why install antivirus program to linux ? | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | claude47: to scan my windows machines. | 12:36 |
| claude47 | -_- | 12:36 |
| grawity | claude47: Besides, there _are_ viruses for Linux. | 12:36 |
| claude47 | yeah like 1-4 virus.. :P | 12:36 |
| * grawity decides to not continue this. | 12:36 | |
| Dr_Willis | claude47: 'flash' dosent count.. :) so its 1-3 | 12:36 |
| mechdave | azlon, the other way is to add it all to network manager, edit ppp0 in network manager and there should be a routes button | 12:37 |
| azlon | mechdave, ok, ill try that next | 12:37 |
| claude47 | there are antivirus server how can scan file/files.. | 12:38 |
| claude47 | http://virusscan.jotti.org/en | 12:38 |
| azlon | mechdave, here is what my interfaces file will look like... let me know if you see any problems before i save: http://pastebin.com/d68181830 | 12:38 |
| mechdave | azlon, sorry, am just going on google/what I reckon is right... doing that will cause some false starts :) | 12:38 |

| jsjc_ | i am having trouble to install postgresql | 12:46 |
| jrib | jsjc_: how are you trying to install it? | 12:46 |
| jsjc_ | apt does not let me go always fails starting server | 12:46 |

| trakcyia | Howcome windows runs faster than linux? | 12:49 |
| azlon | mechdave, ok i found the routes button | 12:49 |
| Appiah | faster what | 12:49 |
| trakcyia | take vista and feed it through vlite, reduce size to less than 700MB | 12:50 |
| jsjc_ | jrib do tyou have an idea why could be? | 12:50 |
| jrib | jsjc_: pastebin your /etc/hosts | 12:50 |
| trakcyia | it runs way faster than jaunty and i have no idea why | 12:50 |
| DJones | !ot | trakcyia | 12:50 |
| ubottu | trakcyia: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 12:50 |
| jsjc_ | hohooh no file found! | 12:50 |
| jsjc_ | found the issue quickly | 12:50 |
| trakcyia | djones actually i was hoping for some insight on what i might do to improve performance | 12:50 |
| jrib | jsjc_: yeah, you have to have localhost resolve to 127.0.0.1 I guess | 12:51 |
| jsjc_ | thanks so much | 12:51 |
| jrib | jsjc_: why would you not have that file though? | 12:51 |
| azlon | mechdave, should i add Address: 0.0.0.0, Netmask: 255.255.255.0, Gateway: 192.168.0.1? | 12:51 |
| hangyaboy | hi | 12:52 |
| DJones | trakcyia: Sorry about that then, can't say I've had that problem, I find that Ubuntu is faster than windows | 12:52 |
| hangyaboy | i cannot download nothing | 12:52 |
| jsjc_ | jrib most likely the dodgy remote install I have done. | 12:52 |

| hangyaboy | i want download open office | 12:53 |
| remoteCTR1 | erm... can it be that ati drivers dont work on a thinkpad t60??? | 12:53 |
| trakcyia | djones perhaps it is because with any windows installation i use i remove 70% of it pre-install, then backup after driver install | 12:54 |
| Appiah | remoteCTR1: they did 2 years ago | 12:54 |
| indus | hangyaboy: no need to download, just install it from add remove programs | 12:54 |
| mechdave | azlon yeah | 12:54 |

| dr3mro | how to defrag EXT4 in jaunty ??? | 12:54 |
| MenZa | !defrag | dr3mro | 12:54 |
| ubottu | dr3mro: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. | 12:54 |
| hangyaboy | ok | 12:54 |
| remoteCTR1 | Appiah, they even did 2 hours ago but then it was still on intrepid not on jaunty | 12:54 |
| hangyaboy | and what about opera? | 12:54 |
| azlon | mechdave, yeah add 0.0.0.0 then 255.255.255.0 then 192.168.0.1? | 12:54 |
| azlon | mechdave, ok, standby | 12:54 |
| indus | hangyaboy: or open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install open-office | 12:54 |

| CHESLYN | how many ssh do you get | 12:56 |

| dr3mro | Appiah, i need to install e4defrag | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathspike: because it works, the repos do not update themselves they are updated by the motu who are people | 13:11 |
| mechdave | azlon, righto now rebuild your ICS with that and then save that as something like iptables.ICS | 13:11 |
| Appiah | if you dont have , and you want to use it , i'd suggest so | 13:12 |
| Appiah | What ubuntu release are you running ext4 on? | 13:12 |
| niko47 | raim0 yes but is hard resize it needs lot space defrag it and resize it.. -_- | 13:12 |

| anr78 | Hey. Where can I find information about how the "install ubuntu inside windows"-feature works? | 13:19 |
| Deathspike | ActionParsnip: Well, what did I do wrong? Added it to the list (sources apt), added the key, tried updating. | 13:19 |
| mechdave | azlon, stick the command to set up your ICS and route info in /etc/rc.local | 13:19 |
| azlon | mechdave, kudos... we just spent like 50 hours messing with the routes and i dont remember to put it back the way it should be... ok ICS is working again | 13:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathspike: sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver pgp.mit.edu 67265eb522bdd6b1c69e66ed7fb8bee0a1f196a8 | 13:19 |

| azlon | mechdave, ok moved | 13:20 |
| freakynl | any way to upgrade from 7.04 to 8 tls w/o physical access? (can't put cd's in, and if ssh doesn't come up i'm screwed) | 13:20 |
| jrib | freakynl: yes. Read the links | 13:21 |
| Deathspike | ActionParsnip: The second one seems to work. Can i delete the first? Or what is it for (Sorry with these questions, I know what I'm doing... on windows :p) | 13:21 |
| yva | hello can somebody help me to configure ssh_config to do a ssh B and then ssh C from B (I'm A) | 13:21 |
| yva | ? | 13:21 |
| jrib | freakynl: you can use the server upgrade method to go to 7.10 and then 8.04 | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathspike: can't see it causing any issues | 13:22 |
| Deathspike | ActionParsnip: That's a no go, I apparently need both. | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathspike: oh, weird | 13:23 |
| trakcyia | is there a way to have grub dump my entire boot partition to a virtual ramdisk, and then boot it? | 13:23 |
| mechdave | azlon, Ok your ICS config needs to be loaded by iptables-restore | 13:23 |
| Pehaper | elo | 13:23 |
| Deathspike | ActionParsnip: Updating now. I'll be back, thanks for the help :) | 13:23 |

| anr78 | If I install inside windows, does everything happen inside my ntfs partition? | 13:23 |
| niko47 | trakcyia no ramdisk cleans all ways when computer shutdown.. | 13:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathspike: np bro | 13:23 |
| jrib | niko47: yes | 13:23 |
| toan | What? | 13:23 |
| mechdave | eg in /etc/rc.local it should read iptables-restore /path/to/iptables.ICS | 13:23 |
| mechdave | azlon, eg in /etc/rc.local it should read iptables-restore /path/to/iptables.ICS | 13:24 |
| jrib | niko47: read the wubi site's documentation | 13:24 |
| trakcyia | niko47: i'm aware that system ram is volatile, that is preferred | 13:24 |
| toan | do u have a best themes | 13:24 |
| Deathspike | The hell? Pidgin can update while running? | 13:24 |
| joaopinto | Deathspike, any regular app on linux can, but the changes will just take effect after restarting the app | 13:25 |
| grawity | Deathspike: In Linux, when a program is running, you can do anything you want to the actual file. | 13:25 |
| azlon | mechdave, uhmm... i think i have a problem | 13:25 |
| Deathspike | That's cool ^_^ Thanks, brb then | 13:25 |
| grawity | Deathspike: The entire program is loaded to memory and doesn't care if it still exists. (I once had to kill apache a week after removing it.) | 13:25 |
| mechdave | azlon, what is that? | 13:25 |
| azlon | mechdave, i thought rc.local was a directory... i replaced my rc.local with that script you gave me | 13:26 |

| ActionParsnip | ut nmap must listen on a port for return messages | 13:41 |
| azlon | mechdave, no luck... and no samba shares | 13:41 |
| grawity | ActionParsnip: Not really - it either simply uses connect(), or listens on the interface directly. | 13:41 |
| mechdave | azlon, this is bad.. what did you put in the rc.local file? | 13:43 |

| xc | what is 17188 port listen means? | 13:45 |
| mechdave | azlon, did you save the config we did on iptables for ICS the second time? | 13:45 |
| remco_ | I tried 3-4 different mouse that all work fine with the same result.. | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | remco_: are you using desktop effects? | 13:45 |
| remco_ | it seems to randomly do this | 13:45 |
| niko47 | listen means u have server application using that port ? | 13:46 |
| yva | jrib, grawity and I got the error /home/yva/.ssh/config: line 3: Bad configuration option: ssh | 13:46 |
| azlon | mechdave, yeah... let me get my iptables again | 13:46 |
| jrib | yva: you missed the \ | 13:46 |
| mechdave | niko, it means there is a program listening for connections on that port | 13:46 |

| chilli0 | Hi , my computer is at 105C ( Thats the boiling point of water..) And im not sure why it gets so hot. I know it happens when i run CS in wine ( my computer is a laptop. Its a good computer dual core 2.6 1gig nvidia card. Anyone know why its getting so hot/ | 13:47 |
| ActionParsnip | remco_: try: press alt+f2 run: metacity --replace | 13:47 |
| yva | jrib> no I tried with and without and it gives the same error, the error is on the last line | 13:47 |
| mechdave | azlon, ok now where you did this --> iptables-restore /etc/network/set-routes-ppp0.sh make it read the path to your ICS file | 13:47 |
| KoolD | ActionParsnip:the process seems to restart every second or so thats why i cannot get a constant pid to kill it. killall also doesnt work. i get process not found error although i can see the process when i run the top command | 13:47 |
| ActionParsnip | remco_: if it then works its a bad compiz config (compiz can interfere with this) | 13:47 |
| niko47 | wine using lot cpu usage... -_- | 13:47 |
| jrib | yva: pastebin what you tried with the \ | 13:47 |

| azlon | mechdave, i flushed the tables, added the ICS info, then wasnt able to ping google. i dropped eth1 and was able to ping google. brought eth1 back up, changed my routes and was able to ping google, but then my iptables were crazy again | 14:03 |
| niko47 | sudo apt-get install ffmpeg | 14:03 |
| joaopinto | caution, nothing special to the ram size, you could require 32 bits only closed source apps | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | caution: nothing, 64bit can simply address a greater pool of ram, 32bit can address ~3.2Gb, 64bit can address 4 exabytes | 14:03 |
| joaopinto | ActionParsnip, you can use > 3GB with 32 bits using PAE, you can't just do it with for a single process | 14:04 |
| caution | what's the speed difference like between 9.04 and 8.04? | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | caution: it will also allow you to upgrade past 4Gb (if you mobo supports it) without need for a reinstall | 14:04 |
| nimrod | Thanx NIko47 | 14:04 |
| joaopinto | caution, you can't compare releases like that | 14:05 |

| NorthMan | twitlive | 14:05 |
| niko47 | np | 14:05 |
| mechdave | azlon, what you need to do is flush your iptables, set up the ICS and then set your route without taking down any interfaces | 14:05 |
| niko47 | rc.local put "ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.1" | 14:06 |
| azlon | mechdave, when i set up the new tables (after i flush them) i cannot ping anything until i take down eth1 and bring it back up. my routes are already set correctly after i do the ICS stuff | 14:06 |
| mechdave | azlon, something is wrong here | 14:07 |

| kermit | niko47: it used to work, where would those modules have gone? | 14:16 |
| azlon | my samba shares stopped after i setup ics... how can i fix this? | 14:17 |
| joaopinto | SoPy, there is no "cherryd" on the original cherrypy3 source, so I have no idea what are you refering to | 14:17 |
| SoPy | http://www.cherrypy.org/browser/trunk/cherrypy/cherryd | 14:17 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: sudo /etc/init.d/samba start | 14:18 |

| joaopinto | there is a cherryd on the karmic package, since jaunty's is broken you would need to build it yourself | 14:20 |
| azlon | ActionParsnip, genius... how can i make it auto start? | 14:20 |
| RS-232 | Hi all | 14:20 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: strange it doesnt, you could always add: /etc/init.d/samba start to /etc/rc.local | 14:20 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: it should be part of the startup processes | 14:21 |
| RS-232 | Why in Ubuntu whenever I connect to a XP share drive (Samba) even if there is no password created in the XP machine, Ubuntu keeps asking me for a password, I can't let it empty...So I have to add a password to the XP machine!! ¿?? | 14:21 |
| joaopinto | SoPy, http://archive.getdeb.net/getdeb/ubuntu/pool/apps/c/cherrypy3/python-cherrypy3_3.1.2-1~getdeb1_all.deb | 14:21 |
| RS-232 | Is there any reason why a Share drive should have by force a Password in order to connect to it with Samba??? | 14:22 |
| RS-232 | I noticed this only when using Ubuntu | 14:22 |
| SoPy | joaopinto: kewl ty | 14:22 |
| kermit | RS-232: how do you connect to an smb share from ubuntu? | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | RS-232: the account you connect with must have a password | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | RS-232: blank passwords show poor security awarenes | 14:22 |
| RS-232 | ActionParsnip: yeah but Why??? When doing the same from an XP machine you can enter without a password | 14:22 |
| RS-232 | ActionParsnip: it is a local machine in my local network here at home.. | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip | RS-232: is the same account name on the other system with the same password? | 14:23 |
| RS-232 | ActionParsnip: Ubuntu asks for a user name and a password, the user name is the same at the share drive machine, but no password | 14:23 |
| RS-232 | so I have to add a password to the account just because of this. | 14:24 |
| Arelis | So, i'm sort of in a vendor lock-in - I have an iPod Nano, guitar equipment that only works on mac/windows, a Wacom tablet that isn't as well supported on Linux as it is on mac/windows, and I don't know whether Linux is usable for professional graphical work such as 2D animation - And I want to break out. How? | 14:24 |
| azlon | ActionParsnip, i still cant see my shared folders. i can see the computer in the network places (windows) but i cant access it... says not a valid network location | 14:24 |
| azlon | ActionParsnip, it was working great until i setup ICS | 14:24 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: sorry but I have here on front of me a WACOM tablet working corrrectly without installing anything special, the Ubuntu default isntallation detected it | 14:25 |

| tipi | Need help in recovering, system>preferences in gnome. Deleted them accidentally in alacarte. | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip | RS-232: you may need to set: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER to set your samba password, you can then chaeck the account is replicated on the windows side and you should be able to walk in | 14:26 |
| grawity | tipi: IIRC, alacarte's edits are stored in ~/.local/share/applications/ | 14:26 |
| Arelis | RS-232: But then there's the other things.. Is Linux usable for professional graphical work such as 2D animation? And how would I get my guitar equipment working? | 14:26 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: you have Gimp for picture edition, as a replacement for PhotoShop | 14:26 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: Cinerrela as replacement for Adobe Premier | 14:27 |
| JacobT | can someone help me | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: check if its running in: ps -ef | less | 14:27 |
| azlon | ActionParsnip, should i just reinstall samba? | 14:27 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: however CAD is a big LACK in Linux if that is you interest | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: also check its listening in: netstat -a | 14:27 |
| RS-232 | ActionParsnip: ok thanks | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: worth a shot, not a bad idea | 14:27 |
| Arelis | RS-232: I don't care about CAD | 14:27 |
| tipi | @grawity thx, but still dont know how to fix it | 14:27 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: what is the software you used to use in MAC? | 14:28 |
| bernardo_ | hi gius | 14:28 |
| bernardo_ | *guys | 14:28 |
| azlon | ActionParsnip, ok i see it running in ps -ef | less now let me check netstat | 14:28 |
| bernardo_ | I want to install ubuntu on my pendrive, should I download the PC (Intel x86) desktop CD or Marvell Dove desktop image? | 14:28 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: probably you should talking about what software you wanted to have in Linux and we will respond you | 14:29 |
| Arelis | RS-232: Line 6 POD FARM for amp modeling, Audacity for recording (But I switched to REAPER because Audacity is not good on a Mac), Safari (because Firefox doesn't work), Adium (but I prefer Pidgin), I used to use the GIMP but I switched over to Photoshop - I don't see what's so much better about it, Adobe Flash CS3/CS4 (I DEFINETLY need this), there's some other things but I have to search for them on my Mac. | 14:30 |

| RS-232 | Arelis: for Adobe Flahs (Macromedia ) I am sorry...but Flash and Linux don't get on very vwell however you can use SVG library and others, there are 1000 threads in internet talking about this | 14:32 |
| Arelis | llutz: Is it so bad for stuff like that? | 14:32 |
| bernardo_ | there's no support for ipod touch/iphone 3.0 syncing at linux, which sucks | 14:32 |

| erUSUL | bernardo_: blame apple; | 14:32 |
| RS-232 | bernardo_: that is not true sorry, I have both my ipod and iphone working in linux | 14:33 |
| Arelis | llutz: Well, I insist on using Flash, but Macromedia Flash MX is okay too. | 14:33 |
| azlon | ActionParsnip, still not working after reinstall. could it have to do with the fact that i changed my default route? | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | bernardo_: you could install rockbox on your ipod and make your ipod suck less | 14:33 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: for modeling you have BLENDER | 14:33 |
| llutz | Arelis: linux is a bad win-app-starter | 14:33 |
| cwe_moodh | hhhhhhh | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | azlon: maybe, you'd ave to check your samba logs to see if connections are getting in | 14:33 |
| Arelis | llutz: Hasn't WINE improved since those 2 years? | 14:33 |
| mrwes | I'm having issues with Skype; the video screen is very small, and it will not double or go full screen | 14:34 |
| llutz | Arelis: ask in #winehq, but as i said: it makes no sense to use a linux-system to work with win-apps | 14:34 |

| === William is now known as Guest69843 | ||
| RS-232 | Arelis: and ALWAYS if all the options have run out, you can start up a SUN Virtual Machine with your XP or OS Leopard image and run what you need | 14:34 |
| erUSUL | Arelis: llutz is right wine is only a band aid | 14:34 |
| RS-232 | Arelis: I do that when I need to work with Solidworks (I am a mechanical Engineer) | 14:34 |

| cwe_moodh | hahahaha | 14:35 |
| rockman | hi | 14:35 |
| RS-232 | games? | 14:35 |
| niko47 | some but not all games.. | 14:35 |
| erUSUL | Arelis: yes i use it for guild wars (platinum rating in appdb) | 14:35 |

| RS-232 | World Of Warcraft and Warhammer work in Wine like a charm | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip | some win games work, some work weird, some wont even install, some have native installers like doom3 | 14:36 |
| Arelis | But, would the Mac be better for working in the professional graphical industry, or is Linux sufficient? | 14:36 |
| remoteCTR1 | ok just in case anybody ever asks this again: AMD has completely dropped support for non hd cards that is the reason why an x1400 f.ex. wont work with amd drivers on jaunty anymore | 14:37 |
| bernardo_ | ActionParsnip, there is no rockbox for iphone/ipod touch | 14:37 |
| Pici | remoteCTR1: It works fine with the open drivers | 14:37 |
| bernardo_ | RS-232, you have an iphone or ipod touch at firmware 3.0+ syncing? | 14:37 |
| mrwes | no skype users in Jaunty? | 14:37 |
| bernardo_ | I want to install ubuntu at the USB drive because the netbook doesn't have a CD drive... should I download the .iso or .img file? | 14:38 |
| RS-232 | bernardo_: My iPhone is >3.0, jailbroken, and also redsnowed...and yes, it works like a charm with Amarok...I had to do some console work of course, but it works better than with iTunes. In internet there are many guides for this | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip | bernardo_: if you read: http://www.rockbox.org/ | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip | bernardo_: it says: Apple: 1st through 5.5th generation iPod, iPod Mini and 1st generation iPod Nano | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip | (not the Shuffle, 2nd/3rd/4th gen Nano, Classic or Touch) | 14:38 |

| Len_ | dumb question: Only one group can be setted by folder? | 14:40 |

| grawity | Len_: Yes. Same for everything in the filesystem. | 14:41 |
| ubuntunewbie | If Thunderbird can't download ,which other email client can do it ? | 14:41 |
| llutz | Arelis: if you prefer to work with native apps without emulations/virtualisation, use your mac | 14:41 |
| ubuntunewbie | thank you :) | 14:41 |
| Arelis | bernardo_: Then I want to customize my Mac to work kind of like Linux - I want a sort of fluxbox, that allows me to customize key shortcuts, and I don't want the Dock. And I want to be able to write programs for anything that is not available. | 14:41 |
| FloodBot3 | ubuntunewbie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:41 |

| Xcell | ubuntunewbie- .. yes there is a way.. but that depends on your ubuntu experience | 14:42 |
| grawity | Len_: Linux has an extension to that - ACLs - they allow setting other users and groups (not just the owner) - but they aren't supported in all systems. (It's possible to use in Ubuntu, but you have to enable them manually.) | 14:42 |

| grawity | erUSUL: But only one group can be set. | 14:43 |
| RS-232 | Len_: Access Control Lists? | 14:43 |

| llutz | trijntje: painless for some, never for all (just my experience) | 14:53 |

| llutz | LjL: where do you see a password? (no, names aren't passwords) | 14:53 |
| trijntje | llutz, I see, I will tell him its mostly painless ;) | 14:53 |
| Sacrebleu_ | hello | 14:53 |
| sivang | can anybody find me the photo from UDS Paris, the group photo | 14:53 |
| Sacrebleu_ | first time i use ubuntu | 14:54 |
| Sacrebleu_ | i`m impressed | 14:54 |
| bernardo_ | thank you guys and trijntje | 14:54 |
| Kartagis | Sacrebleu_, welcome among us | 14:54 |
| trijntje | bernardo_, I've just heard its painless for most users, but there are alway's some unlucky ones | 14:54 |
| LjL | llutz: obviously names can be passwords, and were used as such in that instance. | 14:54 |
| fredl | tsimpson, I know, but I want to know for sure if /dev/mapper/ devices are created by udevd, not whether 'pretty much everything is created by something' | 14:54 |
| bernardo_ | heh, hopefully I won't be unlucky... what about that ext4 filesystem thing? mine is reiserfs | 14:54 |

| tsimpson | fredl: by "pretty much", I mean everything that's not in /dev/.udev | 14:55 |

| Elmaron | will there be an update to nginx 0.6.*? | 15:00 |
| edbian | I'm looking for an app that I can start with a mouse button that basically shows a bunch of icons for apps installed in my system. | 15:00 |
| corey | im running xubuntu | 15:00 |
| Elmaron | nginx 0.5 is kinda broken in some aspects | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | !latest | Elmaron | 15:00 |
| ubottu | Elmaron: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 15:00 |
| Pici | corey: Okay, sorry for the confusion. | 15:00 |
| freakynl | edbian: ? you mean like a start menu? | 15:00 |
| Elmaron | well this is buggy enough to justifyb a post release update | 15:00 |
| corey | ok after i install compiz how do i make it work? | 15:01 |
| Elmaron | that's why I'm asking if there is going to be one | 15:01 |

| erUSUL | Elmaron: nginx is 0.6 in jaunty.. do you mean hardy LTS | 15:02 |
| Len_ | another dumb question: whats the differente btw useradd adduser? | 15:02 |
| Pici | Len_: Their manpages describe the differences well. | 15:02 |
| edbian | freakynl: Yes. In an effort to be more productive I'm experimenting with getting rid of my gnome panel. Compiz has plenty of functionality for arranging my windows (and managing them in general) but I'd like to be able to press my 4th mouse button for example and launch an app that basically just shows launchers for other apps. Is there something like that in the repos? I already have a program that will run a command every time button 4 is pressed now I jus | 15:02 |
| edbian | t need the app! Does this make sense? | 15:02 |
| miguel000 | hi | 15:02 |
| Len_ | Pici: ok | 15:02 |
| violet523 | Len_: ones alot more tech savy | 15:02 |
| kermit | whats the fastest terminal emulator? | 15:03 |
| Elmaron | erUSUL, not sure. uname -a doesn't contain it apparently | 15:03 |
| edbian | freakynl: That way I can launch apps without taking my hand off the mouse | 15:03 |
| violet523 | Len_: one adds users, the other is for adding users to groups if i remember right | 15:03 |
| edbian | kermit: probably xterm with dash instead of bash | 15:03 |
| onats | hey guys, anyone of you know about this negative effect on ubuntu desktop? | 15:03 |
| erUSUL | Elmaron: lsb_release -a | 15:03 |
| llutz | violet523: you remember wrong :) | 15:03 |
| freakynl | so basically you want a configurable menu on the fourth mouse button? definitely possible... dunno if there are any apps that can assist you though | 15:03 |
| violet523 | llutz: its ben ten years ;p | 15:04 |
| Elmaron | erUSUL, yes, hady LTS | 15:04 |
| Elmaron | *hardy | 15:04 |
| erUSUL | Elmaron: according to packages.ubuntu.com hardy has nginx 0.6xxx in backports | 15:04 |
| erUSUL | !backports | Elmaron | 15:04 |
| ubottu | Elmaron: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 15:04 |
| ubuntuisloved | can i manuelly add a PPA ? | 15:04 |
| erUSUL | Elmaron: enable backports and update only nginx then disable them again | 15:04 |
| genii | kermit: You mean something like minicon? | 15:04 |
| violet523 | and well i would have man'ed it but im still stuck in single user mode | 15:04 |

| ubuntuisloved | using apt-key is timing out today | 15:04 |
| Lint01 | is there a Nautilus plugin to edit file ACLs? | 15:04 |
| n8tuser | edbian-> all i can think of is a keymapping for your 4th button, which i have been struggling to get going myself | 15:05 |
| erUSUL | !info eiciel | Lint01 | 15:05 |
| ubottu | Lint01: eiciel (source: eiciel): graphical editor for POSIX ACLs and extended user attributes. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.6.1-2ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 447 kB, installed size 1036 kB | 15:05 |
| Elmaron | erUSUL, can I enable backports not only temporarily only for the nginx package? | 15:05 |
| Pici | jcdyer : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion. | 15:05 |
| freakynl | if you have a tool that can add a command to fourth mouse button, why not attach a file browser targetted to a specific directory on it, in the dir put the shortcuts | 15:05 |
| Elmaron | I don't want to miss out on security patches - otherwise I could just simply compile nginx on my own which I already did | 15:05 |
| edbian | freakynl: Yes. But I don't want to have to have the mouse of the desktop (silly in my opinion). Do you understand? | 15:05 |
| jcdyer | Pici: OK Thanks, though I don't think the question is Karmic specific. | 15:05 |
| trijntje | how can i get evolution to keep a backup of emails I remove from the IMAP server? | 15:06 |
| edbian | n8tuser: I can keymap my button to any command I want. That works completely. I just need a good app to launch when the key is pressed! | 15:06 |
| psinetic | hey guys | 15:06 |
| jcdyer | Pici: Because I didn't have the widget before the upgrade either. | 15:06 |
| freakynl | yea i get it but that might be more difficult as the app your mouse is above might interpret the 4th button as well... which might cause results you don't desire | 15:06 |
| edbian | freakynl: That's a good work around! Not 100% beautiful but pretty close! Thank you! | 15:06 |
| trijntje | edbian, do you want to get the ubuntu menu or just an Alt+F2 kind of thing? | 15:06 |
| jcdyer | Pici: It was the result of switching from EasyPeasy, which doesn't have that on the panel. | 15:06 |

| trijntje | edbian, well thats over my head for sure, good luck to you! | 15:08 |
| violet523 | llutz: what command adds a user to groups, addgroup? | 15:08 |
| azlon | erUSUL, if i change my default route would that prevent other machines from accessing my samba shares? | 15:08 |
| llutz | violet523: adduser does, but it does lots more | 15:08 |
| onats | Pici, super +m / super + n, sets apps to negative contrast... | 15:08 |
| edbian | n8tuser: I'm using xbindkeys. It's actually pretty easy but it is sort of brute force. It doesn't check for duplicates and it overrides any other key mapping (so don't re-map button one unless you wanna be REALLY annoyed). Use xev command if you don't know your mouse buttons | 15:08 |
| erUSUL | azlon: your default gateaway ? | 15:08 |
| Pici | onats: Indeed. | 15:08 |

| gamerx | MrSchmo, not too sure, i would like to know too, is there anyone out that does know? | 15:21 |
| llutz | shane2peru: it needs a modified udev or something similar to to that... | 15:21 |

| wrapster | could anyone let me know... sorry if this is the wrong forum | 15:29 |
| psinetic | actually, here's a question i'd REALLY love the answer to. I know i "upgraded" to the test OS. If you don't like that OS, is there a way to "downgrade" to the one previous to that with a simple terminal command? | 15:29 |
| Delvien | I have an issue with a new(ish) laptop. I am unable to change the screens brightness. I am using ubuntu 9.04, on an HP dv1000se. I even tried rmmod video but that does not solve the issue. | 15:29 |
| mgv1 | how can i make a copy of an audio cd? | 15:29 |
| erUSUL | jlilly: ask in #ubuntu+1 | 15:29 |
| Delvien | psinetic, only way to do that is to reinstall | 15:29 |

| ubottu | psinetic: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 15:29 |
| Delvien | psinetic, however, you can boot to an older kernel, if you are having hardware issues | 15:29 |
| psinetic | it's not like it's already broken | 15:30 |
| mgv1 | erUSUL, i didnt knew about this- i thought there is the simple burning only - thanks | 15:30 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, yaaaay :P | 15:30 |
| Delvien | psinetic, that means that it may be non-operable | 15:30 |
| Delvien | psinetic, What is broken? | 15:30 |
| arand | clone_: The upstream bug shows progress, my guess is that if you are not into kernel hacking, you'll just have to wait this one out.. | 15:30 |
| psinetic | i ran some program called "Remove Orphaned Packages" and it took a lot of crap out in my system | 15:30 |
| psinetic | alot of apps won't run anymore, missing icons, the entire system changed entirely | 15:31 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, btw is there any easy way of "replying", like instead of copying and pasting the users name?, like a right click option (im using x-chat) | 15:31 |

| Pici | clone_: sorry about that. | 15:31 |
| psinetic | ok, one sec | 15:31 |

| psinetic | http://pastebin.com/d17f2909 | 15:34 |
| Delvien | erusul anyway, it looks like he is a new user, or psuedo-new user, and he could already have the metapackage installed, but the single packages that are installed from the metapackage would be missing, he would have to remove the metapackage first, then reinstall. And a new user wouldnt necessarily understand "install xxxx metapackage" | 15:34 |
| Pici | clone_: This isn't an ubuntu problem, the issue is in the kernel module. | 15:35 |

| Delvien | psinetic, sec | 15:36 |
| arand | clone_: hmm, I see your point, but then again, it all comes down to the developers and what they focus on and/or know how to fix it, testing and submitting debug reports are always one way to help getting it done faster... | 15:36 |
| psinetic | yeah i had no idea what you meant by "install ubuntu-desktop metapackage", i figured i'd run "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop metapackage" but that didn't work | 15:36 |

| Delvien | psinetic, i didnt say install ubuntu-desktop metapackage :) that was someone else. the first commands were fine you ran | 15:37 |
| kappaccino | I was at work yesterday trying to find it. I realize I installed 7zip but it's all terminal work :( | 15:37 |
| Delvien | psinetic, gimme a sec, reading something about it | 15:37 |
| psinetic | ok | 15:37 |
| Pici | kappaccino: If you install the 'rar' and 'p7zip' packages, file-roller will be able to handle those filetypes automatically. | 15:37 |
| kappaccino | cool thanks | 15:38 |
| Delvien | psinetic, when is the last time you update? | 15:38 |

| arand | psinetic: exactly what packages did you remove with the orphan-clean-thingy? | 15:38 |
| psinetic | about two hours ago | 15:38 |
| psinetic | i have no idea, it just gave me a bunch of boxes to check, i figured they were all from bad installs or where i half-installed something manually and left alot of trash behind. so i checked them all and hit "ok" | 15:39 |
| psinetic | ...it even removed itself... | 15:39 |

| arand | psinetic: did you have a lot of packages installed without using a repository (i.e. downloaded deb files) or from a repository which are no longer enabled? | 15:42 |
| maciej_ | helo all | 15:42 |
| BlouBlou | psinetic: aptitude is an alias from apt-get | 15:42 |
| Delvien | aptitude is more comprehensive | 15:42 |
| mgolisch | no its not | 15:42 |
| llutz | BlouBlou: wrong | 15:42 |
| mgolisch | its a different programm | 15:42 |
| BlouBlou | llua: ops, so what is it? | 15:42 |
| llutz | psinetic: both are different front-ends to apt | 15:42 |
| BlouBlou | llutz: sorry, what is it? | 15:42 |
| llua | :x | 15:43 |
| psinetic | i think the Remove Orphaned Packages program removed packages that were related to apps that were standalone as well. for example, if an app has no dependencies, then i think it autoassumed it was an orphan and marked it for deletion. | 15:43 |
| arand | psinetic: aptitude is a higher-level program with a semi-gui available, it also tends to give you more information compared to apt-get... | 15:43 |

| fccf | BlouBlou: apt-get aptitude explanation here http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude | 15:44 |
| grawity | BlouBlou: apt-get/apt-cache are purely command-line tools, aptitude is kind of menu-based, and synaptic has a full, clickable GUI - and all three are just interfaces to the 'apt' package management system. | 15:44 |

| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, are you using it?? | 15:45 |
| psinetic | oh ok | 15:46 |

| L1nUX1z3R | coz_, k, thanks | 15:46 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, i shall check it out too | 15:46 |
| Delvien | psinetic, aptitiude removed alot of things... I only wanted the output not for you to continue on and agree to what it was removing doh. | 15:46 |
| arand | psinetic: did your desktop include a menubar at the top. | 15:46 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, thanks too | 15:46 |
| L1nUX1z3R | it basically makes a task bar like the one on windows 7, but better | 15:46 |
| psinetic | uh...well i have both status bars on the bottom of the screen if that's what you're asking | 15:47 |
| Delvien | IS there a K on the bottom left hand side? | 15:47 |
| psinetic | no | 15:47 |
| psinetic | i think it's gnome based | 15:47 |
| arand | psinetic: or rather, are you using Kubuntu rather than the gnome-based ubuntu. | 15:47 |
| Delvien | Whats there? | 15:47 |
| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, hold on ...apparenlty this takes a few dependencies | 15:47 |

| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, ? and a couple manual install things | 15:48 |
| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, thats ok they are installing | 15:48 |
| Delvien | ubuntu is a distro, KDE and Gnome are desktop environments. (kubuntu for kde and ubuntu for gnome) | 15:48 |
| L1nUX1z3R | coz_, yeah...a couple of copying files to /usr/bin etc | 15:48 |
| psinetic | ah. i'm using gnome | 15:48 |
| acr0nym | hello, is it possible to split my current ubuntu partition in half without losing my distro/data | 15:48 |
| psinetic | acr0nym: you can use a partition manager to split the un-used space. | 15:49 |
| grawity | acr0nym: Yes, but you'll need to do that from a LiveCD (because you cannot edit partitions that are being used) | 15:49 |
| Delvien | psinetic, does it look like this? http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/screenshots/desktop.jpg | 15:49 |
| acr0nym | aah grawity that explains why it didn't work | 15:49 |
| grawity | acr0nym: Also, resizing partitions is a little risky. | 15:49 |
| BlouBlou | psinetic: When you install "Ubuntu", Ubuntu installs gnome, but you can install KDE later via synaptic | 15:49 |
| psinetic | no, it doesn't look like that | 15:50 |
| Delvien | psinetic, okie | 15:50 |
| psinetic | hmmm, i'll take a screeny myself | 15:50 |
| Delvien | psinetic, do "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" again, and without continuing post the output to pastebin | 15:50 |
| psinetic | and for the love of god this is pissing me off >_> my music player just up and freaking freezes >_> | 15:50 |
| Delvien | psinetic, maybe the best option for you is to backup your data and reinstall a non-beta version | 15:51 |
| Delvien | psinetic, Usually we all suggest STRONGLY not to get into the beta software unless you really know how to tear things apart | 15:51 |
| psinetic | http://pastebin.com/d1bf26021 | 15:51 |
| psinetic | hmmm ok | 15:51 |
| Delvien | psinetic, you spelled ubuntu-desktop wrong in your terminal command | 15:52 |
| psinetic | well i didn't go into beta until after this happened | 15:52 |
| BlouBlou | Delvien: maybe psinetic can wait few weeks, and install RC or definitive version upgrading | 15:52 |
| Delvien | "ubnuntu-desktop" | 15:52 |
| psinetic | go figure >_> | 15:52 |
| acr0nym | thanks | 15:52 |
| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, oh a systray?? | 15:52 |
| acr0nym | one more question, I want to use the same home partition on different distros | 15:52 |
| xliiv | will you clear one thing to me? i use [alt]+[f2] run program and i'd like to add an activator to it? some hints? | 15:52 |
| Delvien | BlouBlou will be better for him to just reinstall, since we have no idea what packages are missing | 15:52 |
| BullHornL | i can have ubuntu installed on the same partition as windows? | 15:52 |
| acr0nym | do I have to make a different partition for home and can this be done without reinstalling my current ubuntu from scratch? | 15:53 |
| Delvien | BullHornL, with wubi, yes | 15:53 |
| arand | psinetic: using tab-completion makes spelling mistakes rarer ;) | 15:53 |
| BullHornL | is it stable/worth-checking? | 15:53 |
| BlouBlou | psinetic: if you're using beta version join in #ubuntu+1 for karmic support ;) | 15:53 |
| psinetic | http://pastebin.com/d2d2c4a9 | 15:53 |
| Delvien | acr0nym, You dont HAVE to | 15:53 |
| azimout | question: now that we use gdm 2.28, which doesn't (seem to) support themes, what do we do with all the *gdm-theme* packages? | 15:53 |
| grawity | acr0nym: Resize the current /, create a new partition, move data from old /home to the new partition, edit the /etc/fstab apropriately. Note that using a single /home for two distros _may_ create some problems (if you use different versions of Firefox, for example) - but other than that, good. | 15:53 |
| Delvien | BlouBlou, Im already helping him, no need to direct him somewhere else | 15:53 |

| azimout | ok, thank you | 15:54 |
| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, yes its working now let me try to change themes | 15:54 |
| psinetic | haha, ok. that'll make reinstall number three this month ;) | 15:54 |
| acr0nym | thanks grawity, one last question, I'm not very familiar with /etc/fstab can you perhaps explain what I have to do there or a link to a tutorial? | 15:54 |
| KingOverload | I had an error installing the 'splashy' package; "Conflicts with lsb-base" said its overwriting base-logging.sh | 15:54 |
| KingOverload | Anyone know if its safe to force an install? | 15:54 |
| Delvien | psinetic, this time, to make it easier, make your / and /home different partitions, so you dont have to mess with your data all the time | 15:54 |
| erUSUL | !fstab | 15:54 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 15:54 |

| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, mm I cannot find the preferences dialog | 15:55 |
| Delvien | psinetic, :) if you bork your system, your data is safe, well unless your HDD goes nuclear | 15:55 |
| acr0nym | would it also be better to have the home partition as the first partition on my harddisk | 15:55 |
| Delvien | acr0nym, / first | 15:55 |

| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, nope no preferences let me look hold on | 15:56 |
| psinetic | to be honest this has been a very hard and frustrating experience. I'm a military IT and work on computers everyday, but use windows. I know computers, I just don't know linux. and i'm sick of windows and viruses and junk like that and screw mac so i went linux. and ever since i installed it i've had problem after problem. very frustrating. | 15:56 |
| L1nUX1z3R | try logging out then in coz_ | 15:56 |
| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, ok hold on | 15:56 |
| Delvien | psinetic, we all go through that, but at least you can open the hood up and figure it out | 15:56 |
| BullHornL | is there a linux alternative to nokia pc suite for connecting to the internet with a nokia phone? | 15:57 |
| Delvien | psinetic, the beauty of linux :) | 15:57 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, lolz | 15:57 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, it lookz sexy :0 | 15:57 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, yeah, right.... | 15:57 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, send me a screenshot | 15:57 |
| pooka | psinetic: To add to Delvien's point, the fact you're managing to break it repeatedly probably means you're tinkering and trying to learn; you'll benefit in the long run. :o) | 15:57 |
| KingOverload | Breaking stuff is the quickest way to learn imho | 15:57 |
| Delvien | pooka well said | 15:57 |
| psinetic | true. it's like, the first time i installed it, graphics wouldn't work. i did everything i could, googled for a week straight, asked for help, nothing. reinstalled the os and it came back up. then i had another problem | 15:57 |
| psinetic | actually, it's not that i'm breaking it, it's just that crap doesn't work when it's installed | 15:58 |
| psinetic | for example. skype doesn't like my webcam | 15:58 |
| psinetic | so i have to fix it | 15:58 |
| psinetic | ubuntu doesn't like my graphics card, so i have to fix it | 15:58 |
| coz_ | L1nUX1z3R, no still no preferences although I am karmic right now | 15:58 |
| psinetic | and in the process of fixing, i screw something up | 15:58 |
| psinetic | and have to fix that too | 15:58 |
| BullHornL | webcams suck, it took me a month to get mine working on windows | 15:58 |

| KingOverload | Anybody savvy on splash package issues? Not an emergency but if somebody knows it'd be helpful | 15:58 |
| KingOverload | *splashy | 15:58 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, can you not even get it installed?, im just trying to do the themes now | 15:58 |
| psinetic | screw windows | 15:58 |
| Delvien | psinetic, Most of the major issuses you will run into with linux is poor hardware support. The companies spend as little as possible on developement, and while it may work in windows, linux is another story. | 15:59 |
| L1nUX1z3R | coz_, it worked for me after reboot...but i still couldnt change themes | 15:59 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, i can, i just cant change the themes | 15:59 |
| L1nUX1z3R | coz_, im on jaunty | 15:59 |
| psinetic | yeah i've noticed that. one thing that's pissing me off is that there's no yahoo messenger for linux | 15:59 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, mine worked straight away :0, | 15:59 |
| Delvien | psinetic, pidgin | 15:59 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, in just reading thru the docs now | 15:59 |
| grawity | psinetic: Pidgin, Empathy, etc. | 15:59 |
| kelohippi | I will install linux this weekend for a first time on my computer as a dual boot but now im reading about ext3 and ext4 filesystems. they've got me a bit mixed up and i wonder that if i make one partition with ext3 where i keep my /boot as it is recommended and use ext4 on other partitions will it be a bit too experimental for a first time linux user. meaning do i have to spend hours on internet looking for some solutions for conflicts. | 15:59 |
| pooka | psinetic: I believe there are various tools that'll work with messenger for you. Pidgin perhaps? | 15:59 |
| Delvien | psinetic, its all of the IM protocols in one nice app | 15:59 |
| psinetic | i have to use some gyachi, which was removed in the recent screw up | 16:00 |
| psinetic | pidgin doesn't use webcams | 16:00 |
| psinetic | and empathy doesn't accept yahoo webcams | 16:00 |
| grawity | psinetic: Pidgin already supports video for XMPP; Yahoo is coming someday. | 16:00 |
| BlouBlou | psinetic: try amsn for use webcam | 16:00 |
| psinetic | yep that's not working either | 16:00 |
| grawity | BlouBlou: He wants Yahoo, not MSN -.- | 16:00 |
| psinetic | i have both accounts | 16:00 |
| psinetic | neither work | 16:00 |

| pooka | adalal: What is it that you want to accomplish DNSwise? | 16:04 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, it works, i just cant change the themes | 16:04 |
| psinetic | fabiobassa, you've gone into system->prefs->display? | 16:05 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, as far as i can see you put the .tar.gz file into /usr/share/dockbarx/themes and then relog? | 16:05 |
| KingOverload | adalal, Good luck with that. seriously. | 16:05 |
| abdusamed | fabiobassa -> whats ur prob? | 16:05 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, then go into the properties and change it | 16:05 |
| abdusamed | i bet u have a old dell... :) | 16:05 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, i got it installed...but i cant change themes...can you? | 16:05 |
| psinetic | abdusamed, the US Navy uses dell quite a bit ;) | 16:05 |
| kelohippi | pooka: yea thanks. | 16:05 |
| fabiobassa | i cannot have 1024*768, but only 800*600. i tried googleing but all seem to edit xorg.conf | 16:05 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, yes i can change them, im trying to install one now, can you get into the properties page? | 16:05 |
| adalal | pooka: im trying to setup a dns server, that'll point to my ftp server, and one to mail ... i already have a domain setup, i jus wanna know if i can actually setup wildcard support with my own bind server, using dynamic dns' free service | 16:06 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, yes...right-click it then im lost from there | 16:06 |
| L1nUX1z3R | wait i relogin | 16:06 |
| fabiobassa | it seeeìms a very common problem | 16:06 |
| psinetic | fabiobassa, haha, i dunno man, mine was with nvidia not working. it took me a reinstall of the OS to get it to work | 16:06 |
| abdusamed | how do i download from launchpad? after doing the software source steps? | 16:06 |
| thijs | Hello. | 16:07 |
| fabiobassa | ty psinetic, it seems a very common problem that the resolution is set on 800*600 | 16:07 |
| pooka | adalal: You want to host all of this (including the DNS server?) on a dynamic address? | 16:07 |
| adalal | pooka: technically i dont have a dynamic address.. mine's static | 16:08 |
| psinetic | fabiobassa, are you able to change the res in system->prefs->display? | 16:08 |
| pooka | adalal: Okay. Why is dyndns involved? | 16:08 |
| adalal | pooka: jus wanted to use a dns server to point to my address.. | 16:08 |
| zoolook | Hello. Any preseed guru here? | 16:08 |
| fabiobassa | no psinetic just 800*600 and 600*480.. i want it bigger | 16:08 |
| adalal | pooka: got any services that would point an address to my ip? | 16:08 |
| psinetic | ok, hang on | 16:08 |
| KingOverload | adalal, Your dyndns account will do it | 16:08 |
| KingOverload | adalal, you just have to log in and give it your IP (which it can autodetect) | 16:09 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, how the hell do you make it vertical??? | 16:09 |
| pooka | adalal: Any DNS domain reseller should allow you to set the NS records for your domain to point to your personal DNS server. | 16:09 |
| psinetic | fabiobassa, try going to system->Administration->hardware drivers | 16:09 |
| adalal | KingOverload: the problem is, wildcard support is supposedly disabled in a free account, i dont know what that means,... as in, will it allow me to create wildcards using my own bind server? | 16:09 |
| thijs | I've got this problem, I want to install ubuntu 8.10 on a laptop, but because i only have a 8.04 livecd i installed it via installing 8.04, and then upgrade to 8.10, however it always crashes.. Now i managed to atleast get it working for some part. There's a GDM (the 8,04 one) but i can't type in it, i can get in console, and when i type sudo apt-get upgrade, it sais 0 new, 0 to remove, and 92 not upgraded | 16:10 |
| fabiobassa | it is empty psinetic | 16:10 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, right-click on the taskbar then properties > orientation | 16:10 |
| KingOverload | adalal, wildcard support is free | 16:10 |
| thijs | How do i fix it so it will upgrade? | 16:10 |
| psinetic | it's empty? | 16:10 |
| psinetic | ...odd | 16:10 |
| KingOverload | adalal, I have a dyndns account lol | 16:10 |
| fabiobassa | i suppose i am using a generic droiver | 16:10 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, i stil cant change the themes | 16:10 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, btw, i changed the theme to a new one and it seems to apply, but no icons show up | 16:10 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, maybe i need a re-log, but cant as im doing the dvd rip :/ | 16:10 |
| fabiobassa | i suppose xubuntu 9.04 didn't recognize my screen and not my card | 16:10 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, ok | 16:10 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, brb | 16:11 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, so you right click it then select properties? | 16:11 |
| Jordan_U | thijs: How did you upgrade to 8.10, via update-manager? | 16:11 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, yes | 16:11 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, then the window comes up? | 16:11 |
| cody_ | How do i install my video's card propritory drivers? I have the nVidia RIVA TNT2 Model 64 Pro | 16:11 |
| psinetic | fabiobassa, , it does look like it's a driver problem. you'll probably have to go download that driver and compile it for linux. they might have a linux version available. | 16:11 |
| Jordan_U | cody_: Have youtried System > Administration > Harware Drivers? | 16:11 |
| thijs | Jordan_U, yes, via update manager in GUI, but half way(don't know exactly when) it crashed, so i rebooted, continued the upgrade | 16:11 |
| gamerx | cody_, have yyou tried hardware drivers under system - admin | 16:12 |
| L1nUX1z3R | yes...then you select where you want to put it in the orientation tab | 16:12 |
| L1nUX1z3R | gamerx, brb | 16:12 |
| gamerx | L1nUX1z3R, kk' | 16:12 |
| Jordan_U | thijs: Ok, run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 16:12 |
| fabiobassa | ok psinetic , i hoped xubuntu already had it in . ty so much for helping | 16:12 |
| cody_ | gamerx and Jordan_U: Yes, I have. Nothing is in there | 16:12 |
| gamerx | cody_ have you tried searching the nvidia site for linux drivers? | 16:12 |
| psinetic | fabiobassa, alot of times hardware support just isn't given on linux. i would go to the website vender for your graphics card, and see if they don't have a third-party linux driver on the main site | 16:13 |
| Jordan_U | !envy | cody_ | 16:13 |
| ubottu | cody_: 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 | 16:13 |
| thijs | Jordan_U, doesn't that install 9.04? because the fglrx drivers are incompatible with my über video card... | 16:13 |
| fabiobassa | ok ok i will do so | 16:13 |
| fabiobassa | psinetic, ty again | 16:13 |
| Jordan_U | thijs: No, that will only continue the upgrade to 8.10 | 16:13 |
| cody_ | gamerx: No, i have not. I dont know if they even have it there anymore. Oh, well, it dont matter. I doubt compiz will run with the proprietory driver anyway :\ | 16:13 |
| thijs | Jordan_U, when i type lsb_release -a it tells me it's using 8.10, | 16:13 |

| docmax | hello. my printer is blinking orange! what can i do? | 16:35 |
| werfact | cody_, yeah they changed corg.conf, so you can't edit shit now | 16:36 |
| amgarching | cody_: they are talking about "Device" section | 16:36 |
| Unknown1x | hello everyone. | 16:36 |
| thijs | I get a total freeze when using firefox (gmail, loaded and then it freezes) | 16:36 |
| llutz | docmax learn to ask less stupid questions, read printer-manual to see what it means | 16:36 |
| gamerx | is there any way of increasing the max volume, my speakers are all turned up but the noise is low :0 | 16:36 |
| cody_ | amgarching: Okay, so just add lines like: Device = nVidia? | 16:36 |
| n8tuser | docmax-> what does http://localhost:631 tells you? am assuming it is attached to your host and not a network shared printer | 16:36 |
| amgarching | cody_: "nvidia" watch the case | 16:36 |
| docmax | llutz, can be anything | 16:37 |
| nachox | is there any way to limit the usage of su to certain users? or rather prevent some users from using su? | 16:37 |
| werfact | cody_, did you install nvidia driver? | 16:37 |
| nsahoo | hi .. I put a CD in. Then an icon appeared on the desktop. But, it is still there when I took the CD out. How do I remove it? | 16:37 |
| cody_ | amgarching: Okay, i will add that real quick | 16:37 |
| cody_ | werfact: Yes, just now | 16:37 |
| docmax | windows displays a specific answer | 16:37 |
| grawity | nachox: Don't tell the root password to other users. | 16:37 |

| llutz | docmax: windows != linux so what | 16:37 |
| IdleOne | docmax: without knowing make and model of the printer, is like me asking you why my car won't start. There is a thousand reasons.... | 16:37 |
| n8tuser | nachox-> yes prevent them with no capabilities in /etc/sudoers file | 16:37 |
| grawity | Unknown1x: It is already mounted under /host, that's why. | 16:37 |
| grawity | n8tuser: He said su, not sudo. | 16:38 |
| cody_ | werfact: No i did not reboot, i shut down x server and then started it back up after install was finished. I installed the driver with the one supplied by nvidia (NVIDIA-linux......run | 16:38 |
| cody_ | ) | 16:38 |
| IdleOne | docmax: llutz was a little harsh but he was correct in suggesting you look at the manual for the printer | 16:38 |
| docmax | IdleOne, the windows driver tell me: wrong paper format f.e. | 16:38 |
| thijs | Jordan_U, can i ask something more? I just googled a bit about internet usage, and it seems it might be my internet card failing. Would you care to help me out fixing this ? | 16:38 |

| jkarlos | anybody can help me | 16:39 |
| gamerx | does anyone know of a gui program that shows nearby wireless networks, and their channels, etc. | 16:39 |
| xguru | jkarlos: maybe, whats the problem | 16:39 |
| n8tuser | gamerx-> use command line, sudo iwlist wlan0 scan | 16:39 |
| Unknown1x | grawity, thanks. seems so simple, but I guess you learn something everyday. ;) | 16:39 |
| psinetic | ok i'm back | 16:39 |
| jkarlos | well, not is a real problem | 16:39 |
| grawity | nachox: To limit usage of 'su', you'll have to make sure other users don't know the root password. 'su' does not support other ways - the reasons are described in http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/su-invocation.html | 16:39 |
| jkarlos | just, im looking for a sofware | 16:39 |
| grawity | nachox: To limit usage of 'sudo', you'll just remove the users from the 'admin' group. | 16:39 |
| jkarlos | maby a MRP system o logitic | 16:40 |
| psinetic | how do you set yourself as "here" in xchat? | 16:40 |
| jkarlos | or logistic | 16:40 |
| grawity | psinetic: Try /back | 16:40 |
| n8tuser | nachox-> besides, not knowing the password of the other users, that user cannot su to the new user | 16:40 |
| IdleOne | psinetic: /back | 16:40 |
| nachox | Graviton, su can do more than switching to the root user, and i have a couple of users sharing their passwords, so not disclosing the root password doesnt help here. They dont have it already | 16:40 |
| gamerx | n8tuser, okay thats great, allthough i asked for gui | 16:40 |
| psinetic | hmmmmm ok | 16:40 |
| docmax | cups reports: "If you have more than one Canon iP3500 series printer connected to this machine, please unload (and blacklist) the "usblp" kernel module as otherwise CUPS will not be able to distinguish your printers." | 16:40 |

| === Kilo-Tango-Whisk is now known as Kilo-Tango | ||
| grawity | nachox: Well, if user A gives his password to user B, what is the difference between B using 'su', and B simply logging out and logging in again? | 16:41 |
| cody_ | werfact: Okay, now what? I finished rebooting | 16:41 |
| iggi | nachox: to be most secure, make the root passord nearly impossible (i.e. 64 char upper+lower+num+symbol) then simply remove everyone but your admin user from the admin group, also check /etc/sudoers that also limits who can sudo (which is similar) | 16:41 |
| xguru | docmax: i haven't had that problem before, but have you tried removing all printers and reinstalling them? | 16:41 |
| n8tuser | nachox-> perhaps you give a case of what your intentions really are.. | 16:42 |
| docmax | xguru, i will try... one sec | 16:42 |
| nachox | Graviton, responsability assignment | 16:42 |
| psinetic | omg you have GOT to be freaking kidding me >_> | 16:43 |
| nachox | and suauth is what i was looking for | 16:43 |
| psinetic | ugh!!! >_> | 16:43 |
| tred | i have a quick and probably easy question, where is the shutdown/reboot/logout timer on jaunty? i want to edit that 30 seconds down to 5 or 10 secs | 16:43 |
| iggi | nchox: If you hate typing sudo every time, I would suggest removing everyone (but root) from admin, iirc that removed the use of sudo which should be in /sbin/ (non admin cannot see this) then simply add your admin approved users to /etc/sudoers and use sudo -s -H for perm sudo per session | 16:43 |

| amgarching | thijs: this doesnt need to be network. Check if it runs longer in runlevel 2 or 3. (execute "init 2" or add "2" at the grub prompt) | 16:51 |
| thijs | amgarching, alright, will try that | 16:52 |

| cody_ | is there any command or downloadable terminal command to allow me to create my own xorg.conf file without editing it myself? | 16:53 |
| thijs | amgarching, that one doesn't switch either. Anyway, do i just add a 2 in the grub kernel entry? (like after the "ro splash") | 16:53 |
| werfact | cody_, yeah that should work, just make sure you put them under right places, if you mess up, you can restore a backup from a console | 16:53 |

| grawity | thijs: That's called a terminal (or a tty) - not a runlevel. | 16:59 |

| thijs | amgarching, do you think this would help me as well: http://www.paulocabido.com/ubuntu/ati-mobility-radeon-hd-3400-series-jaunty-xorg-and-compiz/ | 17:19 |
| n8tuser | cody_-> during install, you select that /home as part of the install | 17:19 |
| n8tuser | docmax what was troubling the printer? and how were you able to get the status you seeked earlier? | 17:20 |
| cody_ | n8tuser: Okay, but wont it format it? | 17:20 |
| LaireTM | Found only lufs, but that isn't in my Synaptic | 17:20 |
| n8tuser | cody_-> there is a selection to format it or not, do not check formatting it | 17:20 |
| cody_ | n8tuser: OOOOOOOOOOOH okay. Thank you very much! restoring ubuntu now :) | 17:21 |
| axisys | where can I get a driver fro hp le2201w 22" lcd monitor ? | 17:21 |
| LaireTM | Found only lufs, but that isn't in my apt | 17:21 |
| llutz | axisys: displays usually don't need a driver | 17:21 |
| sczgilae | hello. i have an kubuntu 9.04 installation and because of some reasons i have installed GDM to access to the system. The problem is that when an normal user start session GDM says "creating /home/user directory" and i want to quit this message. anybody knows where is it? | 17:22 |
| axisys | llutz: i have 22" that supports 1600 x 1400 .. but i get only 1024 | 17:22 |
| llutz | axisys: your video-card needs configuration | 17:23 |
| axisys | llutz: how do I do it? or are you saying my video card may not support it? | 17:23 |
| docmax | n8tuser, i just hold the button on the printer for 5 sec | 17:23 |
| llutz | axisys: what card are you using? | 17:23 |
| docmax | but i still never know why its blinking... | 17:23 |
| thijs | Is there a possibility of installing a different distro from a livecd without installing the livecd? | 17:24 |
| amgarching | thijs: no idea. Ask people what is known about your ATI. I've met only Intel/Nvidia. Next thing I would try is to put Device = "vesa" into Driver section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf, it will be terribly slow, but will test the graphics subsytem | 17:24 |
| axisys | llutz: i am using hp nc6220 laptop .. and here is the lshw http://pastebin.com/f798634ee | 17:24 |
| thijs | amgarching, alright.. Will ask around a bit then. :) Thank you | 17:25 |

| Rumo | Hi @ all: | 17:25 |
| Rumo | I have a >Intel Modem PCI 56K CTR-21< and get the following line when I type lspci: | 17:25 |
| Rumo | 01:06.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface | 17:25 |
| Rumo | what does it mean? which driver do i need to run it under ubuntu 9.04 64 BIT ?? | 17:25 |
| axisys | llutz: driver=agpgart-intel module=intel_agp | 17:25 |
| FloodBot3 | Rumo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:25 |
| n8tuser | docmax wrong paper size? i have to struggle with that myself, i didnt realize that OpenOffice defaults to european A4 on another pc, and when brought over to where my printer is, it carries that A4 and my default is letter size | 17:26 |
| llutz | axisys: try xrandr | 17:26 |
| maurer_ | How do I set a wireless connection to remain active when I log out? | 17:26 |
| thijs | Anybody knows how to get the ATI Radeon 3400HD card working correct on ubuntu 8.10? | 17:26 |
| docmax | n8tuser, whe have to struggle cause we use ubuntu | 17:26 |
| incentifit | I've created a developer group and added several developer users to that group. My user account's home has a "tools" folder that contains a couple of command line applications that I want other developers to be able to use. Where should I move these applications so that current and new users can use them? I'm guessing there is a proper location for such things. | 17:27 |
| n8tuser | maurer_-> how do you know wireless if not connected once you log out? | 17:27 |
| axisys | llutz: http://pastebin.com/feacdab4 | 17:27 |
| docmax | driver support is choppy | 17:27 |
| n8tuser | docmax-> what? your blaming ubuntu? perhaps use a better printer like HP ? | 17:27 |
| maurer_ | n8tuser: I have a backgrounded process, I log out of the gnome interface, and when I come back it is complaining that the network disappeared. | 17:27 |
| llutz | axisys: seems the intel-driver doesn't support that resolution. try driver "intel" | 17:28 |
| trikiki | hi | 17:28 |
| n8tuser | maurer_-> what does your background process do? access the net? | 17:28 |
| trikiki | I have a doubht with openssl, I read that when I send the csr to the ca this is signed by my private key (to check my private and public key are correct) is that correct ? | 17:28 |
| Rumo | Hi @ all: I have a >Intel Modem PCI 56K CTR-21< and get the following line when I type lspci: 01:06.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface what does it mean? which driver do i need to run it under ubuntu 9.04 64 BIT ?? | 17:28 |
| axisys | llutz: where do I get the driver 'intel' ? | 17:28 |
| maurer_ | n8tuser: Yes--it is actually just a test to get the net working so I can use krb5 as an alternate auth method when in network range. | 17:28 |
| n8tuser | incentifit-> usually in /usr/local/bin | 17:29 |

| LaireTM | Hello, how i can mount a FTP Server? | 17:29 |
| llutz | axisys: create a xorg.conf, load it there | 17:29 |
| IdleOne | docmax: it is not Linux fault if driver support for your printer is "choppy" complain to the manufacturer and ask them to put out some linux drivers for the product | 17:29 |
| whileimhere | hi. I was wondering if I have two machines, one wired and one wireless on the same router how hard is it to set one up so that I can control its files via the wireless machine? | 17:29 |
| n8tuser | maurer_-> tried screen perhaps? | 17:29 |
| cody____ | Okay, im halfway through the install. Is Ext4 or Ext3 better? | 17:29 |
| ActionParsnip | LaireTM: http://ubuntu-install.blogspot.com/2009/05/ftp-site-in-fstab.html | 17:30 |
| cody____ | im going to install jaunty, then upgade to karmic after it is installe | 17:30 |
| cody____ | d | 17:30 |
| maurer_ | n8tuser: This does not help. The problem is that nm-applet/NetworkManager kills the connection when I log out of the graphical interface. I can background the process just fine. | 17:30 |
| n8tuser | whileimhere-> i think i advise you of this before, unless you get yourself familiar with routing, do not have two interfaces on same subnet (served by same router) | 17:30 |
| callnett | hi | 17:30 |
| === jesse is now known as Guest75146 | ||
| axisys | llutz: can't do it dynamically.. like dpkg-reconfiure something? | 17:30 |
| n8tuser | maurer_-> you can try do disable nm-applet and just use the /etc/network/interfaces file | 17:30 |
| callnett | wich program i need to install programs because i get errors | 17:31 |
| maurer_ | n8tuser: OK, do we have any nice config tools for setting up WPA there, or is it just an edit by hand deal at this point? | 17:31 |
| cody____ | I'm at the partitioning part of the install of ubuntu 9.04. I am wanting to know if Ext 3 or Ext 4 is better (P.S. i am going to upgrade to karmic koala after) | 17:31 |
| Rumo | ActionParsnip: what do you mean by !dialup ?? | 17:31 |
| n8tuser | maurer_-> by hand, and all those can be controlled via the /etc/nework/if-up.d | 17:32 |
| n8tuser | maurer_-> man interfaces | 17:32 |
| cody____ | I'll just use Ext 4 | 17:32 |
| n8tuser | Rumo-> you require dial up access still? | 17:32 |
| IdleOne | cody____: karmic uses ext4 default. so use ext4, wether is is better or worse is a matter of opinion. ext4 works fine here with jaunty | 17:32 |
| cody____ | IdleOne: Okay, thank you | 17:32 |
| Rumo | n8tuser: no have no access here (dial up) | 17:33 |
| MrSchmo | any know how to use Kismet? i got this program running and it was probing wireless networks around me. but when i tried to close out the program, my wireless connections stopped working. i can get my wireless up until i reboot my computer. why is that? | 17:33 |
| Rumo | n8tuser: but i travel to a village and theres only dial up... | 17:33 |
| cody____ | okay, going to go wash family dishes, brb | 17:33 |
| cody____ | its also installing :p | 17:34 |
| n8tuser | MrSchmo-> try to use sudo ifup wlan0 and if the driver somehow got unloaded, use modprobe or insmod to reload it | 17:34 |
| n8tuser | without rebooting | 17:35 |
| tntc | is there a way to make my touchscreen pointer different from my regular pointer in Xorg? | 17:35 |

| mortezaes | Hi everybody | 17:35 |
| mortezaes | Is it possible to create an image from flash memory with dd ? | 17:35 |
| mortezaes | I tried it, but when i put the image on flash again, the flash was damaged (Unformatted) | 17:35 |
| LaireTM | ActionParsnip: the first command give me an error | 17:35 |
| iamleneko | hi | 17:35 |
| erUSUL | mortezaes: what dd command you used ? | 17:36 |
| Dr_Willis | mortezaes: dd if=/dev/sda1 of=whatever for a partition.. use 'sda' for the whole drive | 17:36 |
| iamleneko | i am into update to the karmic beta | 17:36 |

| iamleneko | (i know this) | 17:36 |
| thijs | amgarching, I started gdm again, and not copying files, (no firefox open) and it hasn't froze yet. Does that mean it might not be the driver problems but still firefox? | 17:36 |
| Dr_Willis | mortezaes: take care to not use 'sda' when you mean 'sda1' | 17:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Rumo: ubottu gave you a factoid to read with some links | 17:36 |
| iamleneko | just it seems to freeze at configuring mysql-server | 17:36 |
| iamleneko | wonder how i can bypass this to let it finish | 17:37 |
| ActionParsnip | LaireTM: i havent given any commands, only to rumo | 17:37 |
| erUSUL | mortezaes: with sda1 ? you should have dome the whole drive (sda) to avoid confusion when restoring (as Dr_Willis has said) | 17:37 |
| mortezaes | Thx Dr_Willis | 17:37 |
| ActionParsnip | !dialup > Rumo | 17:37 |
| ubottu | Rumo, please see my private message | 17:37 |
| n8tuser | Rumo-> umm it looks like thats a Windows modem, so you may not get the correct driver, trial and error is your best bet.. look for it at intel web site? | 17:37 |
| Rumo | ActionParsnip: i read this before... | 17:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Rumo: thats how you get modems working | 17:37 |
| erUSUL | mortezaes: becouse if you read sda1 and then restored to sda you loose the mbr and table of parition etc | 17:37 |
| iamleneko | ah | 17:37 |
| iamleneko | sorry | 17:37 |
| iamleneko | not in the right room | 17:38 |
| mortezaes | ok erUSUL , thank u | 17:38 |

| gpled | Xcell: thanks | 17:39 |
| Xcell | ok | 17:39 |
| ActionParsnip | LaireTM: make sure you have universe repository enabled | 17:39 |
| amgarching | thijs: running firefox is a kind of stress-test of graphics. If graphics driver is buggy it may expose the bugs. Try running OpenGL apps, also an extreme test. | 17:40 |

| HexTasy_ | everything work fine till it tries to mount the CDROM - I just want it to try and mount NFS instead of the physical CDROM | 17:43 |
| thijs | amgarching, there's no such thing as glxgears apparently | 17:43 |

I have to do, to start Ubuntu in SATA AHCI mode? | 17:54 |
| nerdy_kid | iceroot right, thats the problem, the stupid 'ftp' server is really a sftp server, which i dont want. | 17:54 |
| iceroot | nerdy_kid: then use proftpd | 17:54 |
| iceroot | nerdy_kid: or any other working ftp-server | 17:54 |
| llutz | simmerz: because thats the way X handles screens. | 17:54 |
| iceroot | nerdy_kid: and sftp = ftp over ssh, not ftp with ssl | 17:55 |
| simmerz | llutz: seems wrong to me | 17:55 |

| simmerz | i mean, i add something to my desktop and it disappears off to the top of my usable area that i can't see or use | 17:55 |

| nerdy_kid | iceroot ok sorry maybe it is get them mixed up, which ever one sends the data part encrypted. ive tryed several diffent servers, they all do the same thing. sorry to be a pain, but i really have no clue why :( | 17:56 |

| cbones | <miranda> i don't think it can be done though | 18:17 |
| grawity | wickoo: You're almost right about chmod +s - but 1) it doesn't work for scripts anymore, only for binary executables, and 2) that executable must request the new privileges using setreuid(), simply having the setuid bit is not enough. | 18:17 |
| whileimhere | okay going nuts. My system still boots into the command line not the gdm | 18:17 |
| TheJesus | whileimhere: yes , or just type startx in tty even lighter | 18:17 |
| cbones | <miranda> use the calculator in scientific | 18:17 |

| wickoo | grawity: Thanks! But I have a cgi script that executes the useradd command (I don't know if the whole idea is good or not). What should I do now? It can not be binary | 18:20 |
| cbones | <firdau5> interesting.......can one indeed use calculus in calc? | 18:20 |
| grawity | wickoo: Find out what user does the script run as. Edit the sudoers file to allow passworless useradd to that user. | 18:20 |
| Rumo | hwilde: thank you | 18:20 |
| callnett | ActionParsnip:sorry but is not working | 18:21 |
| wickoo | grawity: Nice idea! thanks again | 18:21 |
| firdau5 | Rumo, go to System ---> Administration ---> System Monitor | 18:21 |
| grawity | wickoo: And for added security, make a wrapper for useradd, to disallow creating users with uid=0 :) | 18:21 |
| ActionParsnip | callnett: ok lets clarify. Did you run: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 18:22 |
| firdau5 | cbone, I never heard about that.. heh | 18:22 |
| cbones | nor i | 18:22 |
| wickoo | grawity: What does your last message mean? ;) | 18:22 |
| unop | grawity, then perhaps, a dpkg-divert for the new actual location of useradd? :) | 18:22 |
| firdau5 | :) | 18:22 |
| grawity | unop: Not necessary, as it's a cgi script calling useradd - and it's enough to modify that one with the new path, IMO. | 18:23 |
| squeegy | how can i alter sudo's PATH? | 18:24 |
| grawity | wickoo: Eh, I'm just saying that since your addition to sudoers ( www-data ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/adduser ) allows CGI scripts to add new users, someone might found a way of tricking your script into creating a user whose uid equals 0 (and all users with uid=0 have root privileges automatically) | 18:24 |
| squeegy | seems like it ignores /etc/environment | 18:24 |
| phate | should i delete the module and try it with the source? | 18:25 |

| system404 | sebsebseb: my pc connected to my tv which is connected to my surround sound system which has awsome base but amarok seems to have poor base on my music so needs equaliser to tweak it a little guns n roses so much better with base lmao is there any all round apps | 19:46 |
| firdau5 | good evening | 19:46 |
| Mikel | i was wondering how you get a "tar.bz2" file to installsomething in the package manager... | 19:47 |
| system404 | sebsebseb: amarok is awsome | 19:47 |
| system404 | sebsebseb: also it looks amazing | 19:47 |
| sebsebseb | system404: Exaile is like Amarok also, but for Gnome and that | 19:47 |
| system404 | sebsebseb: apart from the whole equaliser thing | 19:47 |
| system404 | sebsebseb: amarok is gnome | 19:47 |
| sebsebseb | system404: No Amarok is a KDE app, that can also be run inside Gnome | 19:48 |
| Mikel | I'm trying to find an eay way to install "programs" that are tar.bz2 files... but got no answers in Ubuntu forums that assisted me | 19:48 |
| bazhang | Mikel, which program | 19:48 |
| TheJesus | a__: odd should work =/ can't help anymore, just a gerneal linux mystery | 19:48 |
| system404 | sebsebseb: aww i see well i use it in gnome lol so do you know of any ways for me to fiddle with my settings to up the base | 19:48 |
| grawity | Mikel: .tar.bz2 usually contains compressed source code. You'll have to open Terminal, unpack the file (tar xf foo.tar.bz2), read the file named "README" | 19:48 |
| Mikel | well, the example i gave was Cinelerra, but there are others | 19:48 |
| sebsebseb | system404: no, but if you try alternatives :) Banshee, Exaile, etc, I expect you can get the feature that you want | 19:49 |
| system404 | sebsebseb: true but i love amarok sooo much really not wanting to leave it behind but i guess your right needs must and that | 19:49 |
| sebsebseb | system404: Also since Amarok is really a KDE app, and probably most people in here don't use it, maybe you should ask in #kubuntu | 19:49 |
| Mikel | i am not sure that if I am looking for a program on sourceforge... but it's not in the package manager already... how to get it installed | 19:49 |

| pooka | Mikel: .tar.bz2 means a bzip2-compressed 'tar' archive. You can extract the contents using something like tar --bzip2 -xf myfile.tar.bz2 (have a look at the tar manpage using 'man tar'). It's probably source code; if so, there'll probably be a README or INSTALL file (or both) that describe what you might want to do next. | 19:51 |
| Mikel | " Mikel: .tar.bz2 usually contains compressed source code. You'll have to open Terminal, unpack the file (tar xf foo.tar.bz2), read the file named "README"" That's what I tried to get those on "ubuntu forums" to do... but theyclosed the forum l forum thread | 19:52 |

| toefur | ugh is there a good x264 driver that is free and that utilizies both cpu cores? | 20:21 |
| jack87 | good call thanks bazhang | 20:21 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: I've already tried there, but no luck. | 20:21 |
| chx | how can i manually trigger automount? the device was attached at boot time and i just want to mount now w | 20:22 |
| bazhang | jack87, I would make sure you have the guest additions and kernel headers installed as well | 20:22 |
| toefur | i got the sound to work... but supposedly my comp isnt powerful enough to watch movies | 20:22 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: i didn't use id, so i have no experience... only that link :( | 20:22 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: no problem, but thanks. | 20:22 |
| ortsvorsteher | :) | 20:22 |
| jack87 | bazhang: i do have guest edition installed as for kernel headers how would i install thenm | 20:23 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: It's strange because it works on openSUSE, without requiring anything special. | 20:23 |
| Len_ | flanders: strange. I got a folder here with my user as owner/group and i cant change its grp | 20:23 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: did you read the man page? is there any? | 20:23 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: But on both of my Ubuntu computers, it does not work. Manually mounting CIFS works fine, but not with Autofs (automatically.) | 20:23 |
| Len_ | flanders: 755 chmod | 20:23 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: Yes, but it does not tell me anything I didn't try. | 20:23 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: strange... | 20:24 |
| flanders | Len_: You are the owner and typing "chgrp GROUPNAME FOLDERNAME" doesn't work? | 20:24 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: you use it to automount your usb drives? | 20:25 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: No, to mount a CIFS network share. | 20:26 |
| Len_ | flanders: yes, i'd take u a shot but I dont know to do that on terminal only linux | 20:26 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders, ah, okay... | 20:26 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: If I use the fstab, I can connect to the CIFS share, no problems. But I want to use autofs (for a few reasons), but on Ubuntu it just doesn't work / do anything. | 20:26 |
| flanders | Len_: what do you mean? | 20:27 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: i only found something about autofs and ubuntu for usb drives | 20:27 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: Link me? It might have something in it. | 20:27 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: you can read and understand german? | 20:27 |
| Len_ | flanders: the linux I am trying to change permission dont have GUI, only shell | 20:27 |
| flanders | Len_: The command would be: chgrp GROUPNAME FOLDERNAME | 20:28 |
| flanders | Len_: For example: chgrp admin backups | 20:28 |
| d33d | Question: I need to setup Ubuntu Server 9.04 so I can run a localhost web server as a kind of sandbox for web apps and projects, what do I need to do to allow everyone to access the webserver behind the Virtualbox NAT...? | 20:28 |
| flanders | Len_: Or: chgrp admin /mnt/backups | 20:29 |
| The1Joebob | you can also use chown :group Target | 20:29 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: may you have an translator http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/USB-Datenträger_automatisch_einbinden | 20:29 |
| Len_ | flanders: I got what the erro is, the grp Im trying to change Im not part of it | 20:29 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: Nope, only english, sorry. | 20:29 |
| flanders | Len_: Then try: sudo chgrp GROUPNAME FOLDERNAME | 20:29 |
| d33d | everyone (local) i don't need this outside. | 20:29 |
| Len_ | flanders: and that's the point of my question :) as root (with sudo) it works | 20:30 |
| flanders | ortsvorsteher: Looking at the configuration they use, it's the same thing I am doing. | 20:30 |
| flanders | Len_: Oh, okay. I thought you weren't able to change the group, even as the file owner. But I never knew you mean a group that you are not in. | 20:31 |
| ortsvorsteher | flanders: here in english https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs | 20:31 |

| janhouse | that is the sad part. I have run out of empty cd' s and it is too late to buy one :D | 20:36 |
| unknown1x | flanders, In a Wubi installation. The Ubuntu is simply a folder on the C:\ Drive. I'm not sure how it works, but to access the "Windows Partition" you just browse to /host | 20:36 |
| callnett | i cant install anything | 20:36 |

| sebsebseb | janhouse: or boot up properly | 20:40 |
| janhouse | bazhang, cd installation doesn't work on that computer. USB stick gets only to the boot: line | 20:40 |

| arvind_khadri | ahtmly2k, how are you extracting it?CLI?? | 20:58 |
| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: how can I specify the port of the remote machine in this xhost command? | 20:58 |
| bazhang | del_diablo, he already has an installation, complains about not being able to install packages | 20:58 |
| sebsebseb | admeral: Not much point upgrading to 9.04 now, because 9.10 is out on October 29th, plus this is a good one for many to be doing a clean install of, becasue of default Ext4 :) with Ext3 to Ext4 conversion probably not being quite good enough. | 20:58 |
| c_korn | hello, phonon outputs this error : Phonon error: "A required codec is missing. You need to install the following codec(s) to play this content: H.264" 1 ; is this codec available in some package so phonon can access it ? | 20:59 |
| ortsvorsteher | Guest62815: there is no host specification. did you try xhost manpage? | 20:59 |

| callnett | bazhang: what does it mean is in repos | 21:00 |
| admeral | So your saying I should just drop Ubuntu out of my sestem and do a fresh install and then reset my gui and reinstall my aps? | 21:00 |
| bazhang | callnett, you have an existing installation of ubuntu now? | 21:00 |
| Eitan | bazhang: I gave you that screen as an example for what I see. I am not using a virtualbox. | 21:00 |
| ortsvorsteher | Guest62815: after you did an xhost +remote_machine_name, did you connect with ssh -X user@host? | 21:00 |
| sebsebseb | admeral: Well what's up wtih 8.10, why did you want to upgrade to 9.04? | 21:00 |
| callnett | bazhang: yes | 21:00 |
| mdmcginn | After updating /etc/apache2/sites-available, and then running sudo a2ensite mylocalsite.com, which command should I conclude with: sudo apache2ctl restart or sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload or sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart? Do I need to sudo a2dissite first, whenever changing my virtual host configuration? | 21:00 |
| erUSUL | Eitan: i guess that in a blank disk guided paritionening makes no sense ?? maybe it only appears when there is dual boot scenario | 21:01 |
| bazhang | callnett, and what is the exact error message you get | 21:01 |
| callnett | bazhang: give me a sec. | 21:01 |
| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: yes | 21:01 |
| Pici | mdmcginn: I usually restart the apache2 daemon after making changes, I don't know if doing a reload is sufficient though. | 21:01 |
| IdleOne | admeral: no. check to see in Software Sources and make sure that in the Updates tab you have Normal releases selected. | 21:01 |

| Pici | mdmcginn: Using sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 restart (which is the same as sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart) | 21:02 |
| Dr_Willis | whileimhere: if they can ping each other.. install ssh and use scp for easy transfers | 21:02 |
| Eitan | erUSUL: I have a dual boot situation. It doesn't give me the option for guided partitioning with that either. In any case guided partitioning is necessary if you want to make separate partitions for /home or other directories. | 21:02 |
| arvind_khadri | ahtmly2k, you need to use command line to extract it, or run nautilus with root permissions | 21:02 |
| ph33r | how do I run a .c file ? | 21:02 |
| bazhang | janhouse, the alternate cd is an option | 21:02 |
| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: returns an empty line | 21:02 |
| ortsvorsteher | Guest62815: what is the output of that? | 21:02 |
| Dr_Willis | whileimhere: or set up some mpre perment shares either via nfs, or samba | 21:02 |
| janhouse | bazhang, don't have any cd's left and usb disk won't boot | 21:03 |
| erUSUL | Eitan: manual partitioning can be used for that too i guess | 21:03 |
| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: an empty line, then prompt again | 21:03 |
| janhouse | so can I do it from live cd | 21:03 |

| admeral | On my laptop only I am not able to fetch any of the sestem updates. for 8.10 and I am not able to fetch the upgrade either. No Problems with my desktop. It is on a Dell Vostro 1500 with an intel duo 1.8 ghz per core proccessor and 4 gig ddr2 ram. this shouldent be a hardware problem and I am running full g 54mps so it shouldent be a hardware problem | 21:03 |
| callnett | bazhang: bad file descriptor | 21:03 |
| sebsebseb | admeral: 8.10 is actsaully also my favourite release since 8.04 however since Ext4... | 21:03 |
| sebsebseb | admeral: Is this a pre installed Ubuntu Dell? | 21:03 |
| Eitan | erUSUL: I understand that, but the point is that I don't know enough to do fully manual partitioning, and I don't want a single partition for the whole installation either. Guided partitioning is exactly what I need and it seems to be missing from jaunty. | 21:03 |
| ortsvorsteher | Guest62815: after you exported your display, try the echo command new, there you see if it was set | 21:04 |
| arvind_khadri | ahtmly2k, gksu nautilus, type that in the propmpt you get aftr you hit Alt+F2 | 21:04 |
| sebsebseb | admeral: Also it sounds like a broken package manager. | 21:04 |
| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: the public ip of client right? | 21:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Eitan: i was thinking it shows up if you have a section of unallocated drive space. (but ive not installed jaunty in ages), | 21:04 |
| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: on both sides I have routers | 21:04 |

| l1mmmm5 | bazhang: when i type mount /dev/sda5 (my linux partition), it sits there and doesn't do anything | 21:07 |
| ahtmly2k | okay it works thanx.. i'll see hoe it goes.. | 21:07 |
| l1mmmm5 | bazhang: does this have to do with file system corruption | 21:07 |
| === Cornscout2 is now known as CornwallScouts2 | ||
| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: do I need to open any port on client? | 21:07 |
| erUSUL | Eitan: i see... | 21:07 |
| callnett | bazhang: so if i download the ubuntu on a flash driver can i reinstall?simply | 21:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Eitan: i tend to just use gparted from the live cd to set up the partitions as i like. then run the installer and tell it where to put / and /home and swap. (i normally just use 3 parittions) | 21:07 |
| ortsvorsteher | Guest62815: do you have any firewalls between your client and the remote machine? | 21:08 |
| l1mmmm5 | bazhang: i actually get the error "mount: can't find /dev/sda5 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 21:08 |

| Guest62815 | ortsvorsteher: is there any alternative? | 21:10 |
| ortsvorsteher | Guest62815: you need it for edit some files on remote machine? yes, if you have firewalls in the middle, it wont work... | 21:10 |
| ortsvorsteher | Guest62815: what exactly you need to do? an remote machine? | 21:10 |
| Guest62815 | I need to use eclipse, firefox | 21:10 |
| Eitan | Dr_Willis: I can attest to the fact that there in all the screenshots for the jaunty installation on the web, there is not one with the "guided" option on the partitioning screen. I don't think jaunty has a guided option. The question is why not. | 21:10 |
| callnett | bazhang: 9.10karmik | 21:11 |

| Doc_Lappy | is there a way to increase my partition while in ubuntu or do i have to use the live cd and redo my partitions? | 21:14 |
| Eitan | Dr_Willis: gparted doesn't have guided partitioning either. | 21:14 |
| m0r0n | http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ org/freenode/ Does this work for anyone? | 21:14 |
| flavioibanez | hi | 21:14 |

| raven_ | hi - ffmpeg problem: http://pastebin.com/d29ee8ee8 does anyone know what's going wrong? tnx | 21:15 |
| Doc_Lappy | k thanks erUSUL | 21:15 |
| Eitan | Does anyone here know how to get to the "guided" partitioning option in the jaunty installation? Does jaunty have a "guided" partitioning option? | 21:16 |
| cody_ | Eitan: That is the main partition choice | 21:16 |
| Doc_Lappy | yes eitan | 21:16 |
| cody_ | Eitan: Do you mean manual? | 21:16 |
| Eitan | cody_: not on my screen it isn't. | 21:17 |
| cody_ | Eitan: What does your screen say? | 21:17 |
| chalcedony | on my new ubuntu (9.04) where is xsane copying things to? how do i set it? | 21:17 |
| Eitan | cody_: no... I don't mean manual. The only choices it gives me is "use the entire disk" or manual... there is no mention of the word "guided" | 21:17 |
| mgmuscari1 | does anyone know where the usplash_XXX_YYY.png.c files are? | 21:18 |
| mgmuscari1 | i have the usplash source here and i'm trying to modify it to take a larger pixmap | 21:18 |
| Eitan | cody_: It looks like this one (but this is not my screen and I am not using a virtualbox) http://i547.photobucket.com/albums/hh454/unixmen/ubuntu/16.png | 21:18 |
| cody_ | Eitan: Use the entire disk is half of the guided. Sometimes (If you are lucky) it will allow you to choose co-exist with another operating system. You might have to do it manually (are you keepin gwindows also?) | 21:18 |
| edbian | Why is it that gnome system monitor reports that I'm using 157MB of ram but the "free" command reports that I'm using 630MB ? | 21:18 |
| cody_ | Eitan: Do you have an operating system installed on it already? | 21:19 |
| erUSUL | !usplash | mgmuscari1 | 21:19 |
| ubottu | mgmuscari1: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 21:19 |
| Arelis | I'm having trouble burning the Ubuntu ISO on my Mac... It never stops writing the track, and when I do it with another program called Burn, it gives an error. | 21:19 |
| mgmuscari1 | erUSUL: i'm making my own custom usplash... i'm trying to figure out where the heck the includes are | 21:19 |
| cody_ | Arelis: Is it a supported disk? | 21:19 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: bootsplash in grub.conf (Or it used to be) | 21:19 |
| Arelis | cody_: It's a verbatim dvd-r | 21:19 |
| Eitan | cody_: no the "use the entire disk" option does not allow me to be guided... it simply makes one big partition for the whole installation. I want to make a separate partition for home. I do not know enough to do manual... so I need the guided option that has been in all the previous versions but seems to be missing from jaunty. | 21:19 |
| Arelis | err | 21:19 |
| cody_ | Arelis: Because certain CDs dont work with certain programs (IDK why, but it is) | 21:19 |
| Arelis | cd-r | 21:19 |
| Arelis | sorry | 21:20 |
| mgmuscari1 | sigh... | 21:20 |
| FloodBot3 | Arelis: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:20 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: bootsplash in grub.conf (Or it used to be | 21:20 |
| mgmuscari1 | ok, i have the source code to usplash... it's a tree of code that you compile into a .so | 21:20 |
| cody_ | Eitan: I will guide you through the manual option for that (you need to do it manually for a seperate /home)(= | 21:20 |
| mgmuscari1 | i know how to deploy it and test it | 21:20 |
| cody_ | Arelis: Did you choose the DVD Iso from ubuntu's website? | 21:20 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: The image should reside on the boot partition, IE: /boot... | 21:20 |
| Eitan | cody_: I have windows installed on a second drive. Having that drive plugged in or disconnected during the installation does not make any difference in whether I see a "guided" option or not. The guided option is nowhere to be found. | 21:20 |
| Arelis | cody_: No. | 21:20 |
| mgmuscari1 | WanHouse: i know that... i'm trying to BUILD the image | 21:20 |
| mgmuscari1 | hmmm | 21:21 |
| cody_ | Arelis: That is probably why, you need the DVD iso ;) | 21:21 |
| cody_ | Arelis: If you are using a DVD-r | 21:21 |
| jack87 | booting vbox now | 21:21 |
| Arelis | cody_: It isn't a dvd-r, it is a cd-r, I just corrected myself in 3 lines. | 21:21 |

| chalcedony | on my new ubuntu (9.04) where is xsane copying things to? how do i set it? | 21:21 |
| cody_ | Arelis: I did not see it because i am helping multiple people, sorry. What is the error you get? | 21:21 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: Its like the Tiger i once built on the C64 :) | 21:21 |
| Eitan | cody_: ok... my drive size is exactly 30020 megabytes, if that helps. | 21:21 |
| Arelis | cody_: With the program Burn, it just says that the burning failed.. and with the Disk Utility, it just keeps on burning forever. | 21:22 |
| cody_ | Eitan: So it is less than 8GB? | 21:22 |
| mgmuscari1 | hehe i'm trying to make the splash png be 1440x900 | 21:22 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: 128x128 or something like that. Awesome! | 21:22 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: Cool | 21:22 |
| Eitan | cody_: 30020 megabytes, not 3020 megabytes | 21:22 |
| cody_ | Arelis: Hmm... How big is the CD-R? (Different companys have different sizes) | 21:22 |
| Arelis | cody_: 800MB | 21:22 |
| cody_ | Eitan: oooh, okay. So, are you in manual? | 21:23 |
| mgmuscari1 | but the usplash-theme-ubuntu source code only accounts for up to 600x500 | 21:23 |
| {Onyx} | Am I retarded or is GPG email signing with Evolution broken? Works fine in Thunderbird but Evolution gives an error about not being able to find the private key. | 21:23 |

| Arelis | cody_: no. | 21:23 |
| erUSUL | {Onyx}: works for me | 21:23 |
| Eitan | I'm on another computer in another room entirely. So it would be nice to get all the instructions at once... otherwise I'll have to go back and forth for each instruction. | 21:23 |
| cody_ | Arelis: That makes it much harder to fix haha. | 21:23 |
| {Onyx} | erUSUL: What version? | 21:24 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: Do not ever give up any of your goals. Ps: id like to know how you did that because i can only color my boot menu or make is background be a picture. | 21:24 |
| mgmuscari1 | WanHouse: how adept are you at programming in c? | 21:24 |
| Arelis | cody_: This is the last CD-R i'm allowed to use. | 21:24 |
| erUSUL | {Onyx}: jaunty but have allways worked for me and i used every single ubuntu version | 21:24 |
| bazhang | Arelis, this is using OS X ? | 21:24 |

| {Onyx} | erUSUL: Was talking about Evolution version. Because my email encryption works but if I check of to sign the email it fails. | 21:25 |
| WanHouse | mgmuscari1: The page is slow to read though. | 21:25 |
| cody_ | Eitan: Okay, here it goes: Open the manual partitioning in install, and select "Create New Partition" and choose Ext3 as the filesystem, set it to 8192 MB. Next, and in the mount point, choose /. Next, create another partition, Ext3 again, and have it fill the rest of the hard drive. Then as the mount point, choose /home. Check format for both. (And there is a chat program on the Install CD {Unless you have alrenative} it is pidgin IM, in internet) | 21:25 |

| cody_ | Eitan: actually, leave at least 2GB for a swap partition | 21:28 |

| {Onyx} | erUSUL: And the encryption works fine just not the signing and the signing works fine with Thunder | 21:28 |
| Eitan | cody_: Thanks. I will try to follow that... (by the way... I stand by my assertion that "guided" has been removed from jaunty, and no one seems to know why) | 21:28 |
| dmead | i'm looking at my xorg.conf and it's barren | 21:28 |
| phr_ | any idea why my file copies are so slow? i have two discs in this machine and cp'ing or rsync'ing a 4gb file seems to transfer at 5MB/sec or so, which is terrible. dd bs=1M transfers at around 10M/sec, which is still terrible but only half as terrible. copying to an external USB drive is 20+ MB/sec | 21:28 |
| cody_ | Eitan: It practically has, because it NEVER works. I got it to work the FIRST time i installed xD | 21:28 |
| Eitan | cody_: oh boy... I'll need instructions for that too.... | 21:28 |
| cody_ | Eitan: And your welcome | 21:28 |
| erUSUL | {Onyx}: i guess you made a typo when specifying the key id | 21:28 |
| phr_ | i don't see anything in dmesg indicating i/o errors | 21:28 |
| {Onyx} | erUSUL: is there a another spot to put the signing key ID? | 21:29 |
| erUSUL | {Onyx}: encryption uses the recipient key that evo finds via the mail adress but signing needs your secret key id | 21:29 |
| cody_ | Eitan: Haha. Just leave 2GB after making the 2nd ext3 (for /home) and create a linux-swap filesystem, put nothing in the mount point and format it as well | 21:29 |
| ketil | I seem to be unable to upload to my PPA. dput claims it does upload it, but nothing happens on the PPA web page in launchpad. | 21:29 |
| girlsname | Should my Mini 10v be able to playback 480p videos on Hulu? | 21:29 |
| erUSUL | {Onyx}: what do you type as key id ? | 21:29 |
| phr_ | hmm, now dd has also slowed to 4M/sec | 21:30 |
| cody_ | just a quick question, what is the best program for recording your desktop as an avi file? | 21:30 |
| {Onyx} | erUSUL: Think I found the issue. The key ID is 93ACDC3E and I had a c in front of it. | 21:30 |
| erUSUL | {Onyx}: so I was right ;P cheers | 21:31 |
| bcool | Ubuntu is telling me I don't have permission to unmount a DVD, is there a custom command I can use to override this? | 21:31 |
| {Onyx} | erUSUL: Strange though because I was sending encrypted mail to myself and everything was working fine. | 21:31 |
| phr_ | sudo | 21:31 |
| Ronnie | Hi, i got an annoying problem, i installed gnome global menu so i coudl show someone how you could make ubuntu look like MAC OSX, but now im trying to restor the original gnome layout but dispite removing global menu from the system in synaptec i still cant get back my normal window menus :( can anyone help? | 21:31 |
| cody_ | bcool: Try using: sudo umount (where the dvdrom is located) | 21:31 |
| {Onyx} | erUSUL: Thanks for getting me to recheck it :) | 21:31 |
| erUSUL | {Onyx}: no problem | 21:32 |
| cody_ | so something like this bcool: sudo umount /media/cdrom0 (but it will likely not be cdrom0 since it is a dvdrom :p) | 21:32 |
| pretender80 | anyone able to help on he q35 express on hardy. no compiz | 21:32 |
| Ronnie | >.< | 21:32 |
| sebsebseb | Ronnie: maybe the command that sets the panels back to default, will help, or partly help | 21:33 |
| bcool | unmount command not found | 21:33 |
| cody_ | Ronnie: The original menu for ubuntu is: Menu Bar | 21:33 |
| eitan2 | cody_: I'm on the target computer in the live ubuntu system now. | 21:33 |
| cody_ | eitan2: okay, need the instructions one by one? | 21:33 |
| Arelis | bazhang: Because it's about burning the Ubuntu ISO on OSX, but i'm going to try it on my parents's windows pc | 21:33 |
| Ronnie | Just re install it through apt yea? | 21:33 |
| {Onyx} | Sweet, working now. Just need to send myself a test email and check it in gmail to see if it signs all funky like Thunderbird did. | 21:33 |
| Ronnie | Menubar or.. | 21:33 |
| cody_ | bcool: Not unmount, umount | 21:33 |
| eitan2 | cody_: that would be nice... I'll run the installation program again... or should I just use gparted? | 21:33 |
| sebsebseb | Ronnie: Have you done a Mac OS X theme as well? | 21:33 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Use the installer, gparted cant set the mount positions | 21:34 |
| eitan2 | cody_: got it. | 21:34 |
| Ronnie | sebsebseb: Yea, somone wanted to see it done now im tryign to set it all back XD | 21:34 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Let me know when you are in manual partitioner | 21:34 |
| sebsebseb | Ronnie: so change the theme back to the Ubuntu one in the normal way? | 21:34 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: I have gotten the perfect mac OSX theme, but i was forced to restore ubuntu <_< and im too lazy to set it up again cause it took several days | 21:35 |
| sebsebseb | Ronnie: you didn't have to pm that | 21:35 |
| Ronnie | Sry :p | 21:35 |
| Ronnie | I did do that, but the nomal menus are not restored. Fiel edit etc | 21:35 |
| mgmuscari1 | ah, i got it | 21:36 |
| cody_ | Ronnie: Oh, you mean in programs? | 21:36 |
| eitan2 | cody_: ok... let me tell you the setup... I have a blank 30gig drive set as master, and a separate bootable 40g windows 2000 drive set up as slave. | 21:36 |
| Ronnie | Yea, | 21:36 |
| dmead | channel | 21:36 |
| mgmuscari1 | add an extern struct corresponding to the larger usplash pixmap in the usplash-theme-ubuntu.c file | 21:36 |
| mgmuscari1 | add a corresponding entry in the makefile | 21:36 |
| dmead | how do i get ubuntu to write a complete xorg.conf | 21:36 |
| mgmuscari1 | and that should do it | 21:36 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Okay, and the blank 30gig will hold ubuntu? | 21:36 |
| bcool | anyway to tell what I am supposed to put in place of cdrom0 | 21:36 |
| eitan2 | cody_: the screen "prepare disk space" is up and it says that "this computer has windows 2000 on it" where do you want to put ubuntu? | 21:36 |
| cody_ | Ronnie: okay, usually, you can right click the top bar and choose "Show Menu" | 21:36 |
| eitan2 | cody_: yes... the blank one is for ubuntu | 21:37 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Is the 40g windows 2000 plugged in usb? | 21:37 |
| bcool | nm I think I found it | 21:37 |
| eitan2 | cody_: no.. both are ide | 21:37 |
| Nillerz | Hellow | 21:38 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Okay, lets see. open up manual partitioner, and there should be a drop down in the top right of the screen. One will have a ntfs partition on it, the other with nothing. The other with nothing is the one you want | 21:38 |
| Nillerz | Does anyone know how to make the extra slide-out monitor work in Ubuntu? | 21:38 |
| eitan2 | cody_: the options are "install side by side" "use entire disk" "use largest free space" and "specify partitions manually" | 21:38 |
| bcool | Awsome I got it. | 21:38 |
| Ronnie | cody: I cant find that anywhere. | 21:38 |
| bcool | Thanks for the help. | 21:38 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Specify partitions manually | 21:38 |
| eitan2 | cody_: ok.. scanning disks | 21:38 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Okay | 21:38 |
| flanders | Does anyone know how to modify the file in this tutorial? They don't really give a good explanation other than "modify it!": http://www.howtoforge.com/accessing_windows_or_samba_shares_using_autofs | 21:38 |
| Nillerz | I say again, does anyone know how to make the Lenovo Thinkpad W700DS's extra monitor work in Ubuntu? | 21:38 |
| ericdb | It looks like in Karmic, the scripts /etc/acpi/video_brightness{up|down}.sh have been dropped. Where can I customize this behavior now? | 21:38 |
| guntbert | !karmic | ericdb | 21:39 |
| ubottu | ericdb: 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 | 21:39 |
| sebsebseb | !karmic | ericdb | 21:39 |
| eitan2 | cody_: it says /dev/sda ... then /dev/sdb then indented /dev/sdb1 ntfs | 21:39 |
| * guntbert smiles at sebsebseb | 21:39 | |
| ericdb | Thanks guntbert and sebsebseb. | 21:39 |
| Mike_lifeguard | How can I use gksudo something to edit files on a server with a graphical application on my computer? | 21:39 |
| eitan2 | cody_: I want to install to /dev/sda | 21:39 |
| cody_ | /dev/sdb has windows 2000 on it. does /dev/sda1 have anything? | 21:39 |
| sebsebseb | guntbert: great minds think alike? altough there's nothing special about doing that | 21:40 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Okay, then make sure /dev/sda is selected (it will only show unallocated) | 21:40 |
| Ronnie | Mike_lofeguard: Use sudo instead of gksudo | 21:40 |
| eitan2 | cody_: /dev/sda is blank.. no partition table... /dev/sda1 doesn't exist yet | 21:40 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Then click "Create new partition) at the bottom, and a box will pop up. Type in 8192 in the size box, ext3 as the filesystem, check format, and choose "/" as the mount point. Then click ok/done/create. Let me know when you have finished that | 21:41 |
| eitan2 | cody_: the options buttons say "new partition table" and "undo" | 21:41 |
| guntbert | Mike_lifeguard: you need to open the connectio to the remote machine with ssh -X ... - (capital X) | 21:41 |
| flanders | Ronnie, can't he use "gksu gedit /path/to/file" ? | 21:41 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Click new partition table i mean | 21:41 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Ronnie: Well obviously that'll do for using nano or something on the remote machine, which is not what I asked about. | 21:41 |
| nighty__ | Guten Abend =) Ich hab ein Problem mit ampache und coherence... kann mir da jemand helfen? | 21:41 |
| Pici | !de | nighty__ | 21:41 |
| ubottu | nighty__: In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. | 21:41 |
| eitan2 | cody_: question... why ext3 and not ext4? | 21:41 |
| Mike_lifeguard | guntbert: I thought that required X on the server (which would be unusual) | 21:42 |
| === worm is now known as F00L | ||
| cody_ | eitan2: Well, truly, you can use either, im using ext4 because im upgrading to karmic, choose whichever you want, ubuntu 9.04 can run on either | 21:42 |
| guntbert | Ronnie: don't use graphical programs with sudo | 21:42 |
| sebsebseb | eitan2: Ext4 isn't properly stable in 9.04, because of the kernel and such, it will however be in 9.10, and clean installs of Ubuntu will get it by default | 21:42 |
| flanders | Ronnie, Only thing I can think of, and I'm far from an expert, is to create a remote share, and use gksu gedit on the files. | 21:42 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Also what sebsebseb said :p | 21:43 |
| Ronnie | Mike_lifegaurd: If you want to use gedit to edit flile on a local machine you can use ssh -X <host> which enables GUI forwarding, but the Gnome libraries and apps need to be installed on that machine | 21:43 |
| flanders | Ronnie, otherwise, I think you're limited to terminal text editors. | 21:43 |
| guntbert | Mike_lifeguard: it would require the actual program (for instance gedit), not an X server | 21:43 |
| eitan2 | cody_: oh... :( ... how soon till karmic comes out? | 21:43 |
| genii | 28th | 21:43 |
| sebsebseb | genii: 29th | 21:43 |
| cody_ | eitan2: yea, like 12 days i think. You can use the beta (I am upgrading to it from jaunty) | 21:43 |
| genii | Or 29th ;) | 21:44 |
| eitan2 | cody_: is karmic lts? | 21:44 |
| guntbert | Mike_lifeguard: as Ronnie just said, but don't use graphical programs with sudo | 21:44 |
| sebsebseb | etotheipi: Karmic won't be LTS, but Lucid the next one is | 21:44 |
| sebsebseb | !lucid | etotheipi | 21:44 |
| ubottu | etotheipi: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l02bhwofEqw for announcement video. | 21:44 |
| eitan2 | oh | 21:44 |
| cody_ | eitan2: No, it is not :p | 21:44 |
| cody_ | !lucid | eitan2 | 21:45 |
| ubottu | eitan2: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l02bhwofEqw for announcement video. | 21:45 |
| joebodo_ | !lts | 21:45 |
| Mike_lifeguard | guntbert, Ronnie: Thanks, I think I'll copy the file so I own it, edit with a graphical application then copy it back | 21:45 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 21:45 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Got the 1st partition set up yet? | 21:45 |
| eitan2 | cody_: so the first partition I create will be "primary" right? and it will contain the ubuntu main system files, right? that's the one that should be 8 gigs? | 21:45 |
| Dreamglider | is there a way to view the second monitor(2nd monitor being a Projector) in a window on the main monitor ?. I can not get a good view of the projected image so i need a way to see it on the main screen. | 21:45 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Yes, exactly | 21:45 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Make sure mount point is set as "/" before you click done | 21:46 |
| eitan2 | cody_: ok... hold on.. | 21:46 |
| guntbert | Mike_lifeguard: easy enough done - use scp for the copying | 21:46 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Okay, let me know when it finishes the 1st | 21:46 |
| eitan2 | cody_: location "beginning" mount point "/" ? | 21:47 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Yes | 21:47 |
| eitan2 | cody_: ok... done. | 21:47 |
| {Onyx} | Cool, now that I have GPG working with Evolution I just have to talk my not security aware friends into using encryption/signing. My wife asked me last night why she should and I told her what if I was out of town and she needed the credit card number to buy something online. I'd want to encrypt it if I was going to email it. | 21:47 |
| trism | Mike_lifeguard: I did a bit of googling and it appears kate will allow you to do something like sftp://path_to_file, and it will cache the file locally and then push out edits to the server when you save | 21:47 |
| cody_ | eitan2: For the next partition, in the size, type 20480 (for 20GB) and choose (ext3 or ext4, whatever you chose for 1st partition) check format, then choose /home as the mount point | 21:47 |
| eitan2 | cody_: question... is 8 gigs the recommended size for any ubuntu system partition in general? | 21:48 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Yes | 21:48 |
| sebsebseb | eitan2: depends | 21:48 |
| cody_ | eitan2: If you put home on it, then it is the full partition | 21:48 |
| sebsebseb | eitan2: if you have a big seperate /home that should be ok | 21:48 |
| babak | hi | 21:48 |
| sebsebseb | eitan2: if not and you start filling up home with a lot of stuff, bigish files, you will probably run out of space | 21:48 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Exactly what sebsebseb said | 21:48 |
| Mike_lifeguard | guntbert, trism: ANY good editor will let you edit over sftp (etc) - the issue is you do so as yourself, not as root, so you cannot edit root's files except with copying or changing permissions | 21:48 |
| babak | how can change to txt mode? | 21:48 |
| {Onyx} | cody/eitan2: I've got like 9gb taken up and all I use that partition for is Ubuntu and apps? | 21:49 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Let me know when the seconds (/home) partition is odne | 21:49 |
| {Onyx} | Err that should have been a period. | 21:49 |
| eitan2 | cody_: but 8 gigs is more than enough for ubuntu system files... even if I install a lot of programs later on with synaptic... right? | 21:49 |
| mtnbkr | babak: CTRL-ALT-F1 ? | 21:49 |
| cody_ | {Onyx}: yes, as long as /home is on a seperate partition, although the most of the files go into home | 21:49 |
| sebsebseb | eitan2: maybe, maybe not | 21:49 |
| Wolfcastle | hello | 21:49 |
| mtnbkr | babak: CTRL-ALT-F7 to get back to X | 21:50 |
| eitan2 | sebsebseb: what do you mean? | 21:50 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Yes, ubuntu system takes up about 6 or 7 GB. If you are likely to install more than 1GB of programs, then add an extra gig or 2 | 21:50 |
| cody_ | and take away an extra gig or 2 from home | 21:50 |
| {Onyx} | eitan2: No ti won't. I'm using over 9gb so far just for file system and apps. | 21:50 |
| sebsebseb | eitan2: for example on the other computer with only a 15GB partition after quite a lot of games from the repo and such, only 6GB free space | 21:50 |
| trism | Mike_lifeguard: good point *shrugs* | 21:50 |
| Wolfcastle | I've noticed that the cpu speed applet can only manage one core at a time | 21:50 |
| guntbert | Mike_lifeguard: from experience I prefer changing the ownership on the remote machine, but in such a case I would simply use a non GUI editor | 21:50 |
| Wolfcastle | shouldn't it be able to manage the speed of all cores? | 21:50 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Yes, but many people do not install games on ubuntu, it isnt exactly known for games ;) I install main apps like firefox 3.5 and the like | 21:51 |
| Wolfcastle | as for now I'm using two applets, one for each core but it's kind of annoying | 21:51 |
| Mike_lifeguard | guntbert: I wouldn't change permissions/ownership on the original though - copy it, do your work, then copy it back | 21:51 |
| JonathanD | I wouldn't mind more games. | 21:51 |
| cody_ | Though i should probably have made my system partition 10GB since im upgrading to karmic hehe | 21:51 |
| cody_ | i have 8G for my system partition :p | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: well most of those games are from the repo :) and Linux distros can be good for gaming as well or reasonably good | 21:51 |
| eitan2 | cody_: the /home partition should be logical, not primary, right? | 21:52 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Yes, but if you try to run a commerical game on it, it doesnt always run smoothylu ;) | 21:52 |
| cody_ | eitan2: I didnt have to choose logical ha. Or primary. But i think so | 21:52 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Before you clicked new partition table, what were all the choices? | 21:52 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: well we need more good open source games that are as good as a lot of the commerical games, by the sounds of it there's something in development at the moment actsaulley | 21:52 |
| trism | Mike_lifeguard: seems easier to just fire up vim/nano/whatever and just edit it like that | 21:52 |
| cody_ | there should have been one more eitan2 | 21:52 |
| amgarchIn9 | Hi, after upgrade to 9.10 aptitude wants to remove "binutils-static" because "they are no longer used". Can anybody with a fresh install of 9.10 check if "binutils-static" is installed? | 21:53 |
| guntbert | Mike_lifeguard: of course - I assumed as much :) , but still: is the task so big that you don't want to use nano or joe or vi(m) ? | 21:53 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: I would definatly hope so, i want a game like civilization for ubuntu ;) a good game though, most of the open source ones are not too good | 21:53 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: also get a games console or something, stop playing Windows games ideally :) | 21:53 |
| bazhang | amgarchIn9, #ubuntu+1 for karmic | 21:53 |
| PolitikerNEU | amgarchIn9: Not a fresh, but a working (more or less) install of karmic: binutils-static is NOT installed | 21:53 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: in fact now quite a lot of the later games aren't being made for Windows, and this has gone off topic | 21:53 |
| {Onyx} | Would be so pwn if we could get native linux support for games. | 21:54 |
| eitan2 | cody_: well the only choice at the bottom was "new partition" . Now the choices are "primary" or "logical", then the size, then "beginning" or "end" for location, then fs type, then mount point | 21:54 |
| Mike_lifeguard | guntbert: Yes. | 21:54 |
| Mike_lifeguard | trism: No, it isn't :) | 21:54 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Yea, very off topic haha. Most newer games are being made for: Mac, linux, and iwnodwS ^_^ | 21:54 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: well some are only being made for games consoles now | 21:54 |
| nodgedodge | hi, i installed ubuntu 8.04 on my computer(some time ago) parallel to windows and after 2 times booting or so it wouldnt load the bootmanager any more and boot windows directly | 21:54 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Okay, good. Logical is the correct choice, size 20480 for 20GB, and beginning, fs should be same as first partition, and finally ,mount point should be: "/home" | 21:55 |
| eitan2 | cody_: location beginning or end? | 21:55 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Yes, specially for PS3 ;) I love the PS3 (Too off topic now, we should get back on topic ;) | 21:55 |
| sebsebseb | !love > cody_ | 21:55 |
| ubottu | cody_, please see my private message | 21:55 |
| cody_ | eitan2: End (It has to be after the / partition) | 21:55 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: I dont know how to go to private message in irssi ;:P | 21:55 |
| cody_ | :P* | 21:56 |
| nodgedodge | so my problem is, that i would like to access the files in my ubuntu home folder, but i cant because i m not the owner | 21:56 |
| The_Lord_Of_The_ | we love you | 21:56 |
| {Onyx} | Hey cody_? You talking about major games starting to be coded with native linux support? | 21:56 |
| The_Lord_Of_The_ | WE love ubuntu | 21:56 |
| epaphus | What is the best way to determine if there is a memory leak in my system? Sometimes my applications just close unexpectly or become slow | 21:56 |
| trism | cody_: alt+ whatever number window the message is on | 21:56 |
| cody_ | {Onyx}: Yes, newer ones. Games already made are not being re-written for ubuntu, likely at least | 21:56 |
| cody_ | trism: Thanks | 21:56 |
| amgarchIn9 | in aptitude I clicked "+" and now I think I know beter, but it still wants to upgrade a package even if I restart aptitude? How do I reset it? | 21:56 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: HAHAHA, that was interesting :P But funny :3 | 21:57 |
| realize | hi | 21:57 |
| cody_ | !love > sebsebseb | 21:57 |
| Ronnie | cody_: sorry do you know how to restao the normal windowed menus (File, Edit, etc.) after i've had Global-menu installed and the removed, currently my windows have no menus ant its really annoying becuse i cant change anything. | 21:57 |

| meatbun | how to launch screen with 4 shells opened | 21:57 |
| {Onyx} | cody_: Sweet, when I build my new system I was going to actually dish out money for Windows 7 just to be able to get into some gaming. | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | This idea that only the commercial games are the best games, is nonsense, there are some rather good open source games indeed out there. | 21:57 |
| realize | Could someone help me out with some networking issues? | 21:57 |
| cody_ | Ronnie: Sorry, i never used global menu cause it never worked, so i dont know :( | 21:57 |
| realize | This is sort of my last resort before I go crazy | 21:57 |
| ortsvorsteher | !details | realize | 21:57 |
| ubottu | realize: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: You didn't need to pm it back to me! | 21:58 |
| Ronnie | cody_ ok thanks, | 21:58 |
| cody_ | {Onyx}: I would still dish money for win7, it is equal if not better then linux ;) | 21:58 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: HAHHA, soz :p | 21:58 |
| cody_ | Ronnie: Your welcome | 21:58 |
| Ronnie | Anyone else know? >.< I really need to send an email but i need to change thesetitngs on evolution | 21:58 |
| {Onyx} | cody_: Will only cost me 20 bucks. I work tech support so a bunch of my buddies have subscriptions to tech net and have umpteen licences :) | 21:58 |
| ubuntu_ | hi | 21:58 |
| ubuntu_ | hi | 21:59 |

| meatbun | trism, isn't there a simpler way like screen -option 4 windows | 21:59 |
| eitan2 | cody_: question... when I had created the primary partition for / .... I asked for 8000 mb... when it created it... it turned that into 8003.... why is that? | 22:00 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: I just saw it, Yea, some games are pretty good i will admit :p | 22:00 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Open sourcE* | 22:00 |
| {Onyx} | cody_: I work for HP support and we're already getting training on some of the features. Its going to rock so much more than Vista. | 22:00 |
| cody_ | eitan2: It sometimes does that, ubuntu doesnt like even numbers i guess :p | 22:00 |
| === miguel is now known as Guest82888 | ||
| sebsebseb | {Onyx} Ideally you should not play Windows games at all, unless they are made for Linux as well. This is difficult for many people though, and so how about a WII or something and play the games on that. | 22:00 |
| cody_ | {Onyx}: It is, i know some friends who have the beta, and says it kicks vista's *** :p They had vista for like 2 years, got win7 beta, never looked back haha | 22:00 |
| epaphus | What is the best way to determine if there is a memory leak in my system? Sometimes my applications just close unexpectly or become slow | 22:01 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: How about a PS3? :P :D | 22:01 |
| {Onyx} | sebseb: I don't game as is :) | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: yep or that | 22:01 |
| trism | meatbun: well it isn't that complicated, you just add lines to the file like "screen 0 bash" "screen 1 bash", etc | 22:01 |
| cody_ | {Onyx}: I dont often either, i played some JAK 2 though today ;) haha | 22:01 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: I love PS3 :3 hehe | 22:01 |
| Wolfcastle | is it possible to have different cpu frequencies depending on battery or AC usage? | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: Xbox 360 though uh no, for obvious reasons :D | 22:01 |
| Wolfcastle | it's quite simple to do in KDE | 22:01 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Obviosuly, xbox360 is no fun ;) | 22:01 |
| Ronnie | My 360 crashes allot :c | 22:02 |
| trism | meatbun: or whatever command you want to start for your default set of windows | 22:02 |
| eitan2 | cody_: ok done... /dev/sda1 is ext3 mounted at / and 8003mb, /dev/sda5 is ext3 mounted at /home and 20003mb ... I have 2006 mb left as free space | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: I meant Microsoft don't need more of our support | 22:02 |
| cody_ | Finally! the karmic upgrade is install ing pakacges | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: as in money | 22:02 |
| meatbun | trism, ok. just that on some machines, i don't install plugins and apps | 22:02 |
| realize | How Come when I check for open ports on the wan it says it doesn't work? | 22:02 |
| {Onyx} | I can't afford a PS3/WII/Xbox360. I'm already needing to build me a new box, one for my wife or a notebook and a server. | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: and vender lock in for that matter | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | !ot | 22:02 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 22:02 |
| meatbun | trism, is this in .screenrc? or profile thing is different | 22:02 |
| cody_ | eitan2: New partition, logical, end, 2006 MB, format, set as linux-swap filesystem, and no mount point | 22:02 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Yea, they dont ;) | 22:03 |
| WanHouse | {Onyx} Fetch "Plants Vs Zombies" Its an awesome game and works perfectly under wine. Its one of those games you can play for days nad days. | 22:03 |
| trism | meatbun: screen-profiles is another package in ubuntu that I think is installed with screen by default | 22:03 |
| WanHouse | nad/and | 22:03 |
| mdmcginn | The phantom virtual hostname turned out to be in my /etc/hosts file. I still wasn't able to get the new hostname to resolve until I put it into /etc/hosts. | 22:03 |
| cody_ | WanHouse: Never even heard of that ;) Cant do ANTHINg until karmic update finishes hehe | 22:03 |
| nodgedodge | hi, i installed ubuntu 8.04 on my computer(some time ago) parallel to windows and after 2 times booting or so, my computer wouldnt load the bootmanager any more and boot with windows directly. so my problem is, that i would like to access the files in my ubuntu home folder, but i cant because i m not the owner | 22:03 |
| trism | meatbun: although if you just want more shells quickly, f2 is configured by default in ubuntu to launch a new shell, so you could just press f2 three more times after starting screen | 22:04 |
| cody_ | nodgedodge: Access from windows? | 22:04 |
| nodgedodge | im using the 9.04 ubuntu demo cd right now btw | 22:04 |
| WanHouse | cody_: You wont regret playing it. I guarrantie it. | 22:04 |
| trism | meatbun: the path for the default windows is ~/.screen-profiles/windows though | 22:04 |
| cody_ | WanHouse: okay :) I will run it soon as karmic update finishes haha | 22:04 |
| sebsebseb | WanHouse: Is it free as in price? or even better as in freedom with the code available to the general public? | 22:04 |
| meatbun | trism, ok | 22:04 |
| mgmuscari | how do i list the vga modes that are available to me at boot time? | 22:04 |
| cody_ | which is 1 hour 36 minutes roughly T_t | 22:04 |
| meatbun | thx | 22:04 |
| mgmuscari | preferably without rebooting and scanning them right after grub :D | 22:05 |
| eitan2 | cody_: the choices are ext3 or "swap area" ... so not ext3, but "swap area" right? and why end and not beginning again? what would happen if I chose beginning? | 22:05 |
| nodgedodge | @cody: im using the ubuntu 9.04 cd demo right now | 22:05 |
| sebsebseb | nodgedodge: that's not a demo, it's the Live CD, but also the install CD | 22:05 |
| eitan2 | cody_: what do end and beginning mean? | 22:05 |
| cody_ | eitan2: yes, swap area. And truly it wouldnt matter, swap it either place, it loads it fine either way. | 22:05 |
| WanHouse | sebsebseb: Its a good game. | 22:05 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Beginning and end mean: Beginning goes in FRONT of all the partitions, end goes AFTER all the partitions | 22:05 |
| sebsebseb | WanHouse: that didn't answer my questiosn | 22:05 |
| nodgedodge | @sebsebseb: yes youre right | 22:06 |
| WanHouse | sebsebseb: I know. | 22:06 |
| cody_ | WanHouse: Free as in price, or free as in anyone can edit the code and redistribute it? :p | 22:06 |
| eitan2 | cody_: ok .. hold on... | 22:06 |
| cody_ | eitan2: Okay | 22:06 |
| Ronnie | cody_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=987341 :3 foudn this am gonna try it. | 22:06 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: plus if it's only made for Windows at the moment, and it's opensource/freesoftware it could be ported to Linux natively I expect :) | 22:06 |
| WanHouse | cody_: Its a fun game. Take it... or leave it :) | 22:07 |
| cody_ | WanHouse: Lol okay fine :p | 22:07 |
| WanHouse | :) | 22:07 |
| cody_ | Ronnie: Awesome, i hope it works :) | 22:07 |
| Twim4 | hi all, how can i install pdf printer? | 22:07 |
| The_Lord_Of_The_ | how to change the Ubuntu logo in the Application panel? | 22:07 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Me too ;) I wish some programs that were free in price were free in source code | 22:07 |
| cody_ | Twim4: sudo apt-get install cups-pdf | 22:08 |
| {Onyx} | I really wish Evolution had a setting to always try to send encrypted and if unable to locate a key send unencrypted. | 22:08 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: yeah a lot of Windows games stop being developed, but never become open source | 22:08 |
| Twim4 | cody_; did it, nothing happens | 22:08 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb: Yea, i know :( | 22:08 |
| cody_ | Twim4: What does it do? Does it say already installed? | 22:08 |
| nodgedodge | so id even be happy if someone could justpoint out a link with file ownership under ubuntu | 22:08 |
| collimic | I am looking for a way to allow my users to skip the black list I have setup. I am using reject_rbl_client but I ahve some users that want to get all the mail and spam. Where can I go to setup a by user list to skip the checking of the rbl? | 22:08 |
| WanHouse | sebsebseb: DigDug was fun | 22:09 |
| realize | Hey, I get a dsl router attached to a wireless router attached to a server I would like to make accessible through the internet but for some reason when I go to this website http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and test port 80 and 22 it says the the connection timed out even though I have no firewalls running on either router or the server. It did work for me like a half an hour ago but I reset the dsl router and now NOTHING WORKS! | 22:09 |
| sebsebseb | WanHouse: I don't know about that game | 22:09 |
| WanHouse | sebsebseb: Maniac Mansion rules | 22:09 |
| Billiard | nodgedodge: what about file ownership | 22:09 |
| sebsebseb | WanHouse: or that one, I am not a gamer | 22:09 |
| cody_ | sebsebseb and WanHouse: BEST GAME OF ALL TIME: Civilization :D | 22:09 |
| eitan2 | cody_: ok sda6 is swap... but it is not letting me check the "format" option | 22:09 |
| WanHouse | sebsebseb: Tell me about the games you played when youre younger ? | 22:09 |
| WanHouse | cody_: Lol, ehm... eeh... Doh! :) | 22:10 |
| cody_ | eitan2: May be the file system, that is fine then. I didnt set up swap, ubuntu did it cause it was already set up for some reason. Just click forward or continue | 22:10 |
| realize | Help? | 22:10 |
| Billiard | realize: you have to setup port forwarding | 22:10 |
| cody_ | WanHouse: XD I love that game, and it runs under DOSBox ;) | 22:10 |
| Twim4 | cody_; yes it was already installed, but when i go to system -> adminisr -> printing and want to create one pdf printer the button "forward" is grey | 22:10 |
| realize | yeah, I did | 22:10 |
| sebsebseb | WanHouse: doesn't matter it's off topic now, however if you know of any games that are good and work natively in Linux, or in Wine, and that are free, feel free to pm me the names | 22:10 |
| mgmuscari | !vga | 22:10 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about vga | 22:10 |
| sebsebseb | WanHouse: free as in price that was | 22:10 |
| Billiard | realize: many dsl bridges are single port switches | 22:10 |
| mgmuscari | !vga-modes | 22:10 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about vga-modes | 22:10 |
| cody_ | Twim4: Then do this: System 00> Administration --> Printer, make sure the PDF printer is enabled (right click it, click enabled if it was not) | 22:11 |
| Billiard | realize: set up port forwarding on the dsl mdoem too? | 22:11 |
| nodgedodge | Billiard: my problem was that: i installed ubuntu 8.04 on my computer(some time ago) parallel to windows and after 2 times booting or so, my computer wouldnt load the bootmanager any more and boot with windows directly. so my problem is, that i would like to access the files in my ubuntu home folder, but i cant because i m not the owner(im using the ubuntu 9.04 live cd right now) | 22:11 |
| realize | I set it the dsl router to forward to the wireless routers ip and then the wireless router would forward to the servers ip | 22:11 |
| realize | I'm really confuzed since I got it working at one point | 22:11 |
| sebsebseb | cody_: same to you, what I said to WanHouse | 22:11 |
| Twim4 | cody_; i havent any printers there, have to create it, but i cant | 22:12 |
| came0 | How do I load a module in apache2? I have mod_wsgi.so installed but I cant figure out how to load it in apache2? | 22:12 |
| Snicksie | hi, got a weird problem. i can't use alt-tab, super-tab and mouseclick | 22:12 |
| Billiard | came0 create a link in mods-enabled linking to the file in mods-available | 22:12 |
| WanHouse | sebsebseb: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Linux_games / http://icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php / http://www.linuxgames.com | 22:12 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, do you by chance have compiz running with the wallpaper plugin? | 22:12 |
| dios_mio | Snicksie: compiz problems? | 22:13 |
| ichat | came0: - nano /etc/apache2/httpd.conf (i i r c ) | 22:13 |
| sebsebseb | WanHouse: ok thanks :) | 22:13 |
| came0 | Billard: its not in mods-available | 22:13 |
| Snicksie | dios_mio and coz_ i didn't change anything in my computer | 22:13 |
| Billiard | nodgedodge: you should be able to use sudo in the live cd i think | 22:13 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, mm when did this start happening? | 22:13 |
| came0 | Billard: and when I install it its a .so file.. not ,load or .conff | 22:13 |
| * realize starts pulling out lumps of hair! | 22:13 | |
| Snicksie | coz_, few minutes ago, just stopped one useless process | 22:13 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, did it happen after restarting x? | 22:14 |
| WanHouse | Games: http://games.linux.sk/index.php?group=&sort=&count=5&pos=2 | 22:14 |
| Twim4 | cody_; oke, i reinstalled that, but on the test it sais that its faild | 22:14 |
| WanHouse | Hit next at the next sign | 22:14 |
| Joshua^^ | 1st time installing ubuntu 9.04 and have a prob. | 22:14 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, what was the process you stopped? | 22:14 |
| Snicksie | to be exactly, it was whatpulse; coz_ no, i just woke up from sleep, stopped the process whatpulse, thereafter it didn't react anymore, suppose that's the problem | 22:14 |
| eitan2 | cody_: what is the difference between a primary partition and a logical partition? | 22:14 |
| Billiard | realize: your server and router have static ip's or are setup to receive the same ip? | 22:14 |
| WanHouse | sebsebseb: Its important to also have fun. | 22:15 |
| nodgedodge | Billiard: ok, thanks ill try that | 22:15 |
| Joshua^^ | Have LiveCD and I get to the install screen then | 22:15 |
| Billiard | eitan you can only have 4 primary patitions, windows can only boot from a primary | 22:15 |
| Snicksie | coz_, isn't there anyway to start a terminal without clicking or using alt-tab? | 22:15 |
| Joshua^^ | select install and nothing happens. | 22:15 |
| realize | well I've got a subnet ending in 192.168.0.X | 22:15 |
| quentusrex | Anyone know how to install a previous kernel image onto ubuntu? | 22:15 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, ok I want you to restart x ther proper way dont do anything till you read this...first ctrl+alt+F1 then log in then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 22:15 |
| === geekbuntu__ is now known as geekbuntu_ | ||
| quentusrex | I need to test if it is the kernel causing a bug | 22:15 |
| realize | but I forward the ports with dsl router to ip 192.168.1.47 | 22:16 |
| coz_ | quentusrex, when you log in does grub give you the options of another kernel? | 22:16 |
| Billiard | quentusrex: sudo apt-get install linux-image-xxxxx | 22:16 |
| Snicksie | coz_, don't think that will be the problem, i wanna try to kill whatpulse first, because i don't wanna loose my programs (didn't save everything) | 22:16 |
| Joshua^^ | cd light is on (CD is spinning). The screen is still on the install screen. | 22:16 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, oh ok | 22:16 |
| realize | dsl router > wifi router 192.168.1.47 > 192.168.0.10 | 22:16 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, what is this whatpulse thing? | 22:17 |
| === radek is now known as Guest84348 | ||
| Snicksie | coz_, it counts keystrokes and mousestrokes, so i suppose that's the problem. when i'd killed the process, it wouldn't be a problem i suppose, i suppos two ways to clear problem will be unstop whatpulse or taskkill it | 22:18 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, or uninstall it | 22:18 |
| realize | oh thats weird I just tried to access the the the defualt "it works" page and it didn't work | 22:18 |
| Snicksie | coz_, i can't click, so can't get to terminal, can't taskkill it and so on | 22:18 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, so you cant save anything either? | 22:19 |
| Snicksie | coz_, no, cause i can't use alt-tab or click or sth like that | 22:19 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, I dont see another alterntive then but to restart x | 22:19 |

| Sander1 | okej | 22:30 |
| iceroot | wilbefast: dpkg-reconfigure packagename | 22:30 |
| Sander1 | thnx | 22:30 |
| iceroot | wilbefast: sudo dpkg-reconfigure packagename | 22:30 |
| coz_ | Sander1, what this working before? | 22:30 |
| KristianDK | Hello! Is it possible to disable "ls" in /home? | 22:30 |
| wilbefast | right, which one to reinstall... | 22:30 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: why? | 22:30 |
| Billiard | KristianDK: for other users? | 22:30 |
| pepperjack | KristianDK: chmod 700 $HOME | 22:31 |
| KristianDK | Billiard, yes- for normal users :) | 22:31 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: and what about dir? | 22:31 |
| KristianDK | pepperjack, then the users cant access their folders, right? :S | 22:31 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: or vi /home/ tab tab? | 22:31 |
| wilbefast | btw: "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory" | 22:31 |
| pepperjack | KristianDK: no $HOME will be like /home/KristianDK. I wasnt screwing with you..this time | 22:31 |
| pepperjack | KristianDK: basically makes it readable only for the owner | 22:32 |
| KristianDK | pepperjack, nice :) but will it prevent showing the other users in /home/ ? | 22:32 |
| wilbefast | iceroot: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base" didn't do a whole lot, should I reboot again? | 22:32 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: cat /etc/passwd will show you other users | 22:33 |
| pepperjack | KristianDK: no. try this 1) touch testfile 2) ls -l 3) chmod 700 testfile 4) ls -l | 22:33 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: you can only force them only to use ther own home with chroot | 22:33 |
| pepperjack | KristianDK: note on the second ls that you do not have r-- on the left but for the very left column (owner) | 22:33 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: or to see other users | 22:33 |
| Sander1 | but i wanna downloa DDO (dungeon and dragons) and install it | 22:33 |
| iceroot | Sander1: then download it | 22:33 |
| wilbefast | :'( | 22:34 |
| bazhang | Sander1, is this a commercial game or a free one | 22:34 |
| KristianDK | pepperjack, i'll just play around with it | 22:34 |
| KristianDK | iceroot, why so negative? ;) | 22:34 |

| carter | If anyone can help: for reasons unknown, gnome stopped working after reboot. I get only a black screen and cannot ctl-alt-F1 into terminal. Cannot get it to work with safe graphics mode. I have nvidia cards, but changed to "nv" driver in xorg.conf with no success. Tried to dpkg-reconfigure xserver with no success. Tried to re-install ubuntu desktop (no dice). Have RTFMd and STFWd without joy. Any suggestions? Thanks in advanc | 22:34 |
| Sander1 | a free one | 22:34 |
| Sander1 | i guess | 22:34 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: because you cant deny access to other homes or to see other users :) | 22:34 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: without chroot | 22:35 |
| wilbefast | I just need to wipe the slate clean and start again - reinstall seems to do nothing whatsoever | 22:35 |
| Sander1 | i cant download it because i dont know how with ububtu | 22:35 |
| wilbefast | maybe I should uninstall and then reinstall manually | 22:35 |
| black | hi all | 22:35 |
| Snicksie | coz_, got it fixed :D killed it by kill -cont processid which i found with ps -u name | 22:35 |
| Sander1 | :P | 22:35 |
| iceroot | Sander1: use firefox like in windows | 22:35 |
| Sander1 | how...? | 22:35 |
| coz_ | Snicksie, very cool :) | 22:35 |
| Sander1 | :) | 22:35 |
| iceroot | Sander1: typing the url into firefox? | 22:35 |
| bazhang | Sander1, click the first link, then submit the necessary registration information | 22:36 |
| KristianDK | iceroot, but i guess if i let my users run in chroot, they will have root priveleges, right? | 22:36 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: no | 22:36 |
| wilbefast | :( | 22:36 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: chroot = changedroot not root-access | 22:36 |
| MyNameIsRetro | Hi, I'm having issues with preseeding the console-setup package on Hardy Heron: I did a "debconf-get-selections >preseed.txt" on my source system, then a "debconf-set-selections <preseed.txt" on my target system Since I ended up with a U.S. keyboard setting after installation, I repeated "debconf-set-selections <preseed.txt" and did a "dpkg-reconfigure console-setup". That didn't help, however. What's worse, | 22:37 |
| iceroot | !chroot | 22:37 |
| ubottu | chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot) | 22:37 |
| wilbefast | guys, I really need help with this - I can't remove alsa without removing Ubuntu Desktop which sounds like a reasonably drastic thing to be doing | 22:37 |
| Sander1 | i have done the registration | 22:37 |
| KristianDK | nice :) is it possible to use this chroot so that the users get it, when they connect via SSH? | 22:37 |
| wilbefast | just because I have no sound | 22:37 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: but just life with it that others can use ls on /home | 22:38 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: yes | 22:38 |
| bazhang | wilbefast, ubuntu-desktop package is just a metapackage, it can be safely removed | 22:38 |
| Sander1 | but i downlad it and he saves it in download | 22:38 |
| mgv2 | skype downloaded just in their website? | 22:38 |
| Sander1 | and then ? | 22:38 |
| Sander1 | what do i need to do then :P | 22:38 |
| wilbefast | okay then... | 22:38 |
| iceroot | Sander1: click the exe | 22:38 |
| Sander1 | ? | 22:38 |
| KristianDK | iceroot, do you know something like a tutorial for setting this up? | 22:39 |
| iceroot | Sander1: everything like in windows | 22:39 |
| bazhang | Sander1, configure wine then run it | 22:39 |
| iceroot | KristianDK: jailproject is a good projekt for that. have a look at google for it, dont have any links | 22:39 |

| preecher | in ubuntu how can i update pidgen so it has cam support | 23:00 |
| KnifeySpooney | Hey, I recently converted my brother to Ubuntu. He likes it but he has one major gripe -- a few of his Java games which play in fullscreen do not display correctly when in fullscreen. The gnome-panels are still present when in Java's fullscreen. Is there any way to hide the panels when games like Runescape and kickabout are in fullscreen? | 23:00 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, 6 | 23:00 |
| RainyLithuanian | ok, well as for ubuntu support, to make my external monitor work, I do have to manually change virtual display resolution in xorg.conf, which is annoying, since If I want to pivot, I have to significantly rise it and then video card gets somehow overcharged with work | 23:00 |
| pistyman | chicks there are hot but belrus has better pussy | 23:00 |
| bazhang | pistyman, that is not appropriate for here. Please stop NOW | 23:01 |
| pistyman | ) i doubt there are any women in here | 23:01 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: that should be the best one, you could try others. Has it always been fast and this just happened recently? | 23:01 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, just recently | 23:01 |
| hvgotcodes | i had some backport repos enabled, which i disabled, but that might have messed it up | 23:02 |
| preecher | is there a command to use in terminal to update pidgen | 23:02 |
| frog | hi, is there something like global spell checker? i mean one for many(all?) applications ? | 23:02 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: paste me up the iwconfig wlan0 | 23:03 |
| bazhang | pistyman, stay on topic and follow the code of conduct | 23:03 |
| pistyman | but i'll stop since nobody is interested | 23:03 |

| steven_ | Is anyone willing to help a new Ubuntu user? | 23:04 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, http://paste.ubuntu.com/295002/ | 23:04 |
| Billiard | steven_: with what? | 23:04 |
| violet523 | whats a good openssh client? | 23:05 |
| pistyman | well i still cant install my game | 23:05 |
| steven_ | After an update last night I lost the ability to run streaming audio | 23:05 |
| bigtom21485 | (!) | 23:05 |
| bazhang | pistyman, sure you can; sudo apt-get install neverball | 23:05 |
| RainyLithuanian | ok, so can anyone explain me how virtual resolution is used by the machine? | 23:05 |
| puff | violet523: openssh? | 23:05 |
| violet523 | puff: like a secure telnet clint? | 23:05 |
| pistyman | WOOO! | 23:05 |
| puff | violet523: Yeah, openssh is a good open ssh client :-) | 23:05 |
| puff | violet523: I'm not sure what you're asking. | 23:06 |
| RainyLithuanian | cause it seems like the machine is emulating whole virtual resulotion at once and then chopping some parts into different screens | 23:06 |
| puff | violet523: Open a gnome terminal window, type "ssh username@hostname" and hit enter. | 23:06 |
| RainyLithuanian | and if you disable monitor, then it is not disabled virtually | 23:06 |
| RainyLithuanian | or at least does not affect performance | 23:06 |
| violet523 | puff: i thought that was its name bu it doesn't seemed to be installed on this box... ah thats must be it | 23:06 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: what is your base for slow net? www? | 23:07 |
| mikobuntu | preecher ,no command to just update pidgin, you will prob have to install the latest source from here http://www.pidgin.im/ | 23:07 |
| puff | steven_: I sympathize; probably part of why you're not getting any answers is that those sorts of problems are a pain to sort out. | 23:07 |
| pistyman | no offence to anybody.. but why use ubuntu when windows is so much better? | 23:07 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: firefox? | 23:07 |
| puff | violet523: Odd. | 23:07 |
| zaoul | pistyman: what? | 23:07 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, firefox, ping, chromium | 23:07 |
| bazhang | pistyman, last warning | 23:07 |
| pistyman | i said no offence | 23:07 |
| steven_ | How do I reverse the update? | 23:07 |
| zaoul | pistyman: ever heard of package management? | 23:07 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, apt-get was geting 25 bytes a second | 23:07 |
| zaoul | pistyman: package management is the determining factor | 23:07 |
| pistyman | no i havnt heard of it | 23:07 |
| zaoul | pistyman: apt-get? | 23:07 |
| puff | violet523: openssh-client should already be installed. | 23:08 |
| violet523 | puff: oh i forgot to setup the server, i think thats why the connection was refused. thank you for still helpsin | 23:08 |
| Arelis | I'm on a Mac Mini with an Intel GMA 950 video card. It gives rather poor perfomance, much poorer than it did on Mac OS X. What are to correct drivers? | 23:08 |
| Wally | Reinstall mac O SX? | 23:08 |
| Guest34776 | hii am new with ubuntu | 23:08 |
| RainyLithuanian | pistyman, because some modelling programs are specifically designed for linux, then because of stability, beter multi-user enviroment, because of communism | 23:08 |
| puff | violet523: You're welcome. | 23:08 |
| Arelis | Wally, I still have it, it's a dual-boot :) | 23:08 |
| Wally | xD | 23:08 |
| pistyman | communism?? | 23:08 |
| Wally | wouldn't it work better in a VM? | 23:08 |
| bazhang | RainyLithuanian, that is not helpful | 23:08 |
| bazhang | !intel | Arelis | 23:09 |
| ubottu | Arelis: Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. | 23:09 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: You try any other channels? the noise level is quite high | 23:09 |
| puff | pistyman: There are a number of reasons to prefer touse linux, starting with the fact that it doesn't crash nearly as much. | 23:09 |
| RainyLithuanian | bazhang, well, I just expressed package manager idea as communism | 23:09 |
| RainyLithuanian | since that basically are isomorphic | 23:09 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, but why would it start all of a sudden? | 23:09 |
| puff | pistyman: And it's not nearly as much of a resource hog. | 23:09 |
| Guest34776 | ALguno de ustedes Habla espanol | 23:09 |
| Wally | oh right... you guys use TRIGGERS. | 23:09 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, and not affect the other computer | 23:09 |
| bazhang | Guest34776, #ubuntu-es por espanol | 23:09 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: you have another wireless computer? | 23:10 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, yes | 23:10 |
| Guest34776 | thanks | 23:10 |
| puff | pistyman: Additionally, some people don't like being told not to look under the hood. The ubuntu car dosn't come iwth the hood welded shut. | 23:10 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, windows box upstairs, connected wirelessly | 23:10 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: are the iwconfig outputs the same when they are next to each other? | 23:10 |
| Wally | gee guys cheer up. | 23:10 |
| puff | pistyman: Finally, Microsoft and similar companies have a tendency to encroach upon their customers' rights. The Linux world is a counter-tendency. | 23:10 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, would windows have iwconfig? | 23:10 |
| * Wally offers CAKE! | 23:10 | |
| violet523 | alright now that ive installed opensshd so hopefully when i try for lke the eightyith time to get this geforce 5200 to work properly with 3d support | 23:10 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: har my bad.. uhh | 23:11 |
| bazhang | Wally, please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:11 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: im looking at the bitrate, signal level and noise level | 23:11 |
| Wally | pfft. | 23:11 |
| Wally | The internet, is serious business | 23:11 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: deff a pro since your at 1Mb/s it should say 54 if you are on G | 23:11 |
| zaoul | prob | 23:11 |
| puff | pistyman: And finally, a great deal of the internet was invented on unix and later linux, because it supports sophisticated technical development better. | 23:11 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, i think i messed something up with the backports | 23:12 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: anything in dmesg? | 23:12 |
| mavity | o/ | 23:12 |
| mavity | hello | 23:12 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: what sort of card? Maybe you have the wrong module for it? | 23:12 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: I would start looking into the drivers of the card, and making sure the signal/noise levels are up to par | 23:13 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, again, it was working like a champ for months | 23:13 |
| hvgotcodes | i see a lot of wlan0 output but no errors | 23:13 |
| mavity | does wine work well with windows games? | 23:13 |
| dagb | anyone here using a BenQ G2400W with HDMI? I have an issue with DPMS over HDMI, which intel blames on the monitor. | 23:13 |
| bazhang | mavity, check the appdb for your particular game | 23:13 |
| zaoul | mavity: check winehq.org and the winedb | 23:14 |
| bazhang | !appdb > mavity | 23:14 |
| ubottu | mavity, please see my private message | 23:14 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, http://paste.ubuntu.com/295007/ | 23:14 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: you try any other channels? | 23:15 |
| zaoul | hvgotcodes: other theory is a third party interference | 23:15 |
| mavity | do i just type !appdb in the shell prompt? | 23:15 |
| zaoul | no you go to www.winehq.org | 23:15 |
| hvgotcodes | zaoul, thanx for the help, will try other channels later, need to go | 23:16 |
| zaoul | me too | 23:16 |
| bazhang | http://appdb.winehq.org visit that site mavity | 23:16 |

| William-Ubuntu | hi, i want to change the number of the file listed in places -> recent documents ? | 23:19 |
| William-Ubuntu | how can i do it? | 23:19 |
| unique | Billiard: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock etc.. | 23:19 |
| AmyTek | hi, need help with pppd | 23:19 |
| vlt | phr_: No. If it isn't in dmesg it won't be in /var/log/syslog either | 23:19 |
| olvap | how could i list all the actions for every controller? | 23:19 |
| _hey_ | what kind of help, AmyTek? | 23:19 |
| Billiard | unique: what type of filesystem is it? | 23:19 |
| AmyTek | I have the need to start ppd at boot and close it when restart | 23:20 |
| unique | Billiard ext3 | 23:20 |
| AmyTek | I have a stupid modem that don't reset at reboot | 23:20 |
| phr_ | is there a way to tell how much disk activity i'm doing? basically it just took 30 minutes to cat a 4gb file to /dev/null | 23:20 |
| _hey_ | so where's the problem? | 23:20 |
| Arelis | bazhang, Okay, so enabling UXA would make it faster but it's really risky? | 23:20 |
| Billiard | unique: does it work when you specify the fstype? | 23:20 |
| AmyTek | I tryed adding ppd in etc/rc.local | 23:20 |
| vlt | olvap: ask in #rubyonrails | 23:20 |
| olvap | ok | 23:21 |
| LaireTM | Hello, i search a way to mount a ftp folder | 23:21 |
| AmyTek | but when restart it don't reconnect | 23:21 |
| _hey_ | phr, didn't you try to cp it | 23:21 |
| _hey_ | to /dev/null | 23:21 |
| bazhang | Arelis, not sure how risky, but somewhat; it seems to be addressed in the next release in two weeks time | 23:21 |
| vlt | phr_: `vmstat 1` for example | 23:21 |
| erUSUL | LaireTM: Places>Connect to Server | 23:21 |
| unique | Billiard: like -t ext3? | 23:21 |
| girlsname | Should my Mini 10v be able to playback 480p videos on Hulu? | 23:21 |

| Billiard | unique: yes | 23:21 |
| LaireTM | erUSUL: not a connection, i want mount it | 23:21 |
| phr_ | _hey_ i used cat rather than cp. should i use cp? | 23:22 |
| _hey_ | yup | 23:22 |
| _hey_ | cp is nice | 23:22 |
| unique | Billiard: it doesnt | 23:22 |
| mavity | this is going to sound like a very newb question.. but where are these programs that i install off of the database getting installed? | 23:22 |
| phr_ | of course the file will be in cache now, unless i reboot | 23:22 |
| erUSUL | LaireTM: a mount point will be created in ~/.gvfs/ | 23:22 |
| Arelis | bazhang, Okay. I guess i'll turn off compiz, then, for now. | 23:22 |
| vlt | phr_: no, you want cat | 23:22 |
| Billiard | unique: same error? what is the complete command you are using? | 23:22 |
| phr_ | and when i use cat on another drive it's 10x faster | 23:22 |
| _hey_ | nice | 23:22 |
| unique | sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /media/drive | 23:22 |
| _hey_ | did you try cp? | 23:22 |
| phr_ | trying cp now | 23:23 |
| _hey_ | oh cool | 23:23 |
| AmyTek | maybe I have to delete /proc/net/atm/cxacru:0 ? | 23:23 |
| phr_ | vmstat 1 is showing "bi" of 3000-4000 does that mean 1k blocks/sec ? | 23:23 |
| phr_ | that is consistent with the 4MB/s i saw earlier | 23:23 |
| Billiard | unique: this is a valid ext3 partition, did it work before, is it formatted? | 23:23 |
| Arelis | !intel | 23:23 |

| vlt | mavity: most of the executable binaries go to /usr/bin, then there are lib files in /var/lib or /usr/share ... You can list the files of a package with `dpkg -L <pkgname>` | 23:23 |

| mavity | thanks | 23:24 |
| * _hey_ is not still sure what blocks mean | 23:24 | |
| vlt | mavity: But you don't need to care for that. When you want to remove a pkg later the pkg manager (apt or adept or ...) does this for you. | 23:24 |
| _hey_ | 'cause i'm sure that kernel has 4k blocks | 23:24 |
| LaireTM | erUSUL : and how i mount it? | 23:24 |
| _hey_ | while disk activity functions have 1k blocks | 23:24 |
| mavity | yeah im just wondering because i downloaded wine but im not seeing it in my apps list | 23:24 |
| _hey_ | blocks are quite individual | 23:25 |
| erUSUL | LaireTM: i told you Go to PLaces>Connect to Server enter the url pass if needed etc | 23:25 |
| gOLDfeesh | So no one here uses bitpim? | 23:25 |
| Billiard | unique: you could try fsck, idk | 23:25 |
| _hey_ | fsck is cool | 23:25 |
| _hey_ | you could fsck anything | 23:25 |
| paulsidney_ | Please help. I am having an problem with my sound card. I have 9.04 running on a hp dv-4 1120us. The problem is that my sound plays but loops into broken static. Even on startup the ubuntu drums play repeatedly for about a minute at the login screen. The rest of my sounds are indecipherable slush. I have tried upgrading to the ASLA but it wont unpack or compile the files. This is a clean install to an unpartitione | 23:26 |
| _hey_ | that moves | 23:26 |
| paulsidney_ | d HD (previously Vista 64) I have tried everything I know to do and have gotten nowhere for two strait days. | 23:26 |
| Billiard | gOLDfeesh: i messaged you before, does it work with sudo, is it a permissions issue | 23:26 |
| unique | Billiard: like fsck -fy //dev/sdb1 | 23:26 |
| gOLDfeesh | Billiard, I was told not to run it as sudo. I tried it with sudo and it didn't seem to work. I'm trying to remove all files contained with "bitpim" and then reinstalling | 23:27 |
| fbianconi | _hey_: each filesystem has it's own block size, and they are an arbitrary (usualy 2^n bits) amount of continum data managed as an unit | 23:27 |
| AmyTek | some advice for me? | 23:27 |
| LaireTM | erUSUL: But what I try dont work on this way: I want to mount the ftp folder, and giv other computer over the netork access to this folder over samba | 23:27 |

| grendal_prime | ive been dinking around with bacula for aweek now..and i just cant seem to find a decent front end app for building backups. | 23:31 |
| harjot_ | which one? | 23:31 |
| dajhorn | harjot_: Check /var, /var/tmp, /var/log first. | 23:31 |
| LaireTM | erUSUL: i work with this line in the fstab: | 23:31 |
| LaireTM | curlftpfs#v115191:oetzi@ug-team.de /media/ftp_markus fuse rw,allow_other,noauto,user 0 0 | 23:31 |
| The_Doctor | harjot_: I would look at all. | 23:31 |
| harjot_ | ok | 23:31 |
| vlt | grendal_prime: Really depends on your needs. BackupPC is fine, maybe rdiff-backup is enough ... | 23:31 |
| harjot_ | ok | 23:31 |
| violet523 | >_> | 23:31 |
| violet523 | posting login infor not best idea? | 23:32 |
| grendal_prime | needs to have a decent scheduling interface and job manager interface. | 23:32 |
| grendal_prime | these ones for bacula suck and straight up break stuff. | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | LaireTM: i do not use it. so i dunno | 23:33 |
| === al3k is now known as al3k|out | ||
| harjot_ | which file would aid me [there are soooooo many] | 23:33 |
| The_Doctor | grendal_prime: I heard something about rsync (spelling?) for backup. | 23:33 |
| girlsname | Should my Mini 10v be able to playback 480p videos on Hulu because when I try its very stuttery and unwatchable. | 23:33 |
| vlt | grendal_prime: Then have a look at BackupPC | 23:33 |
| theoo | how to make the ubuntu terminal every time i start it to be logged in as root user? | 23:33 |
| erUSUL | !root | theoo | 23:33 |
| Jimbo | hello there, quick question..................... | 23:33 |
| ubottu | theoo: 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 | 23:33 |
| mavity | so basically i installed wine, i see it in the bin but it isnt on my app menu how it was before because the old one i removed with the 'main menu' program. now i reinstalled it and cant get it back on my menu | 23:34 |
| mavity | nevermind | 23:34 |
| mavity | ignore me | 23:34 |
| violet523 | wow, is tat the main difference between ubuntu and debian? | 23:34 |
| mavity | i added it back | 23:34 |
| violet523 | the sudo part | 23:34 |
| grendal_prime | The_Doctor: ya i currently use rsync for alot of things..i need soemthing more centralized. | 23:34 |
| perlsyntax_ | Where can i find _ssl for python? | 23:34 |
| _LaurE_ | Hi?? | 23:34 |
| vlt | violet523: No, you can have sudo on Debian too ;-) | 23:34 |
| grendal_prime | i was hoping for something that used rsync for the transport protocol | 23:34 |
| Jimbo | i began a partition resize (being performed on boot) and looked like iot was going to take all day, so foolishly aborted. Now all my files wont work and are basically corrupt. Is there any way to rescue these files or have they had it? | 23:35 |
| perlsyntax_ | i hope someone knows. | 23:35 |
| grendal_prime | its very ....well...fast as hell | 23:35 |
| violet523 | vlt: but its not sudoish out of box | 23:35 |
| theoo | erUSUL, i know what sudo is for :) but when i start the terminal i want sudo to be automatically typed | 23:35 |
| _LaurE_ | Hola? | 23:35 |
| mavity | so i can add wine back to my list but now the subfolders are missing.. grrl | 23:35 |
| Jimbo | hola! | 23:35 |
| The_Doctor | grendal_prime: My backup is copy and paste to my external drive. | 23:35 |

| datz | Hi, I have sound issues whenever I have a media player open, as well as the brower(firefox), seems either one or the other gets volume, but not both. Is there a way around this? | 23:39 |
| _LaurE_ | ErUSUL i know these but i want practise my bad english ^^ | 23:39 |
| erUSUL | Sonja: try the moonlight plugin based on mono (search for its homepage) | 23:39 |
| erUSUL | _LaurE_: ok, no problem. Wellcome :) | 23:40 |
| Sonja | erUSUL does it work well? or is it still buggy? | 23:40 |
| The_Doctor | datz: with pulse audio, you should be able set voume for each app separately. | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | Sonja: i did not test it extensibily but is spected to not be 100% compatible with the MS one | 23:40 |
| _LaurE_ | ErUSUL ok ;) thanks but you are spanihs? | 23:41 |
| datz | The_Doctor, ok..I'll see, but right now, say, volume for brower only works after closing both brower, and media player, then opening one. | 23:41 |

| night1ne | What's the terminal command for changing a user password? | 23:44 |
| datz | The_Doctor, looks like it might be a problem with theAdobe flash player | 23:44 |
| vlt | night1ne: `passwd` | 23:44 |
| The_Doctor | datz: Good luck. | 23:44 |
| datz | The_Doctor, I need to reload it, would you happen to know the best way about doing that? | 23:44 |
| mavity | this is hard to explain. before when i had wine installed it had subfolders on the gui like "uninstall wine" and "Browse Programs" and "Accessories". Now it just says "Wine" on my app list but thats it. and when I click it nothing happens | 23:45 |
| night1ne | so passwd...? | 23:45 |
| vlt | night1ne: yes | 23:45 |
| night1ne | Maybe uninstall then reinstall wine, mavity? | 23:45 |
| night1ne | Okay, thanks. | 23:45 |
| The_Doctor | datz: Do you use command line or package manager. Go there, uninstall and then reinstall. | 23:45 |
| night1ne | What about for different user accounts? | 23:45 |
| datz | ok, sounds like a plan, thanks | 23:45 |
| erUSUL | night1ne: just "passwd" if its for your password. if you are suing sudo to change someone elses pass you type "sudo passwd loginname" | 23:45 |
| _LaurE_ | ErUSUL lol my english is very bad, my teacher speak very well and he is angry with me because i don't undersyand his | 23:45 |
