[00:00] vlt, what do u mean what client? [00:00] vlt, im using ubuntu....server is windows [00:00] can you tell me how to completly remove pulseaudio? [00:00] are you talking about VNC? [00:00] hsarci: What client program are you using? rdesktop? [00:00] apt-get uninstall pulsaudio-common [00:00] ? [00:01] mgv2: Wait a week and upgrade and try again... [00:01] mavity: yeah, i just had the same problem. and the reason i uninstalled it was because the menus were all screwed up. [00:01] vlt, i don't think so..its just called "terminal server client". im on kbuntu but i think this is the one that comes with gnome... [00:01] My home router can see the hostname of both UbuntuMachineA and UbuntuMachineB. However, from UbuntuMachineC (my laptop), I can only resolve UbuntuMachineA by hostname. What might be the problem? [00:01] it seems like wine doesnt completely remove itself and ubuntu is getting confused [00:01] The_Doctor, in windows i had a similar problem - latley someone told me that the microphne works very low but i dont know how to change it [00:02] hsarci: Have you tried Ctrl+Alt+Return for leaving fullscreen mode? [00:03] vlt, thats what i do, then i close the window...but then the terminal server client program acts like it wasnt expecting the connection to be closed and it pops up and error message and asks me to reconnect... [00:03] vlt, im just assuming that theres another way to tell the program to actually close the conncetion [00:04] hsarci: sorry, I don't know what they put as a wrapper around rdesktop and how to tell it to disconnect.

[00:08] ubd: You can use `shred` before `mkfs`. [00:08] -d, --delete delete the password for the named account <-- I think thats the one I should use? [00:09] What package contains the iso-8859-1 locales in Ubuntu 9.04? [00:09] Ziber: Yes, sounds better. But check that you can't login locally w/o password at all then. [00:09] jerknextdoor: did you ever figure it out [00:09] vlt does shred also work for free space [00:10] pejo_: "locales" I think === niki77 is now known as nikola77 [00:10] vlt, if i dpkg-reconfigure locales I only get UTF-8 ones, and C. Do I need to do something else?

I have a broadcom wireless netcard and I need to use the wl driver. However, the b43 drivers are loaded, blocking the card. [00:11] pejo_: `locale-gen iso-8859-1`?

[00:12] from whatever it is to later in the chain...? [00:12] vlt, any idea why someone made it so hard to get the iso-8859-1 stuff? There seems to be plenty of UTF-8 stuff.

After I've been connected to them and disconnect they stop responding to ping. Other servers that I haven't connected to still responds. [00:20] My idea was to mount the FTP on my homeserver and give acces over samba. With this line in the fstab file I mount it: [00:20] curlftpfs#:@ /media/ftp_markus fuse rw,allow_other,noauto,user 0 0 [00:20] It mount the FTP Folder, but the problem is, that I cant make changes. When I open a file on the FTP and edit it, I can't save the file.

[00:28] vlt, yes, it gets to "Connecting to dexter.ludd.ltu.se ..port 22." and then nothing. [00:28] aleman: probably no need for a driver.. just plug it in.. up by the clock will be a network icon ... click it and enable wireless [00:29] it is plugged in and there is no network icon [00:29] aleman: idk you might be able to get some help from this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=530772&highlight=wusb300n [00:29] how do i find out what package provides the binary `whois`?

[01:04] bazhang, i always did it like that. [01:05] Has anyone ever seen a mouse "offset" problem? In other words, the pointer is not where the mouse actually selects? [01:05] vlt: im a bit confused sorry... so i start of with ssh -L 2222:remotehost:22 and replace remotehost with my ip address? [01:05] cscho0415: specify "my" please [01:05] mnemonic76: Yes, I see it all the time in games. It is usually caused by an incorrect refresh rate [01:05] cscho0415: What is "my" in you rexample? [01:06] bazhang, the link you send me is about ubuntu with gnome and update manager i said just commandline and not ubuntu server! [01:06] vlt: id rather not post my ip address on here just use 123.345.653.678 as an example [01:06] cscho0415: Yes, but is this your final target or the hop you need to tunnel through? [01:06] mnaines: can you tell me how to fix that? I am going crazy trying to find a howto that HELPS! [01:06] Sia-, you wish for server? [01:07] mnemonic76: Does this occur on the desktop or in games? [01:07] bazhang, no, i have ubuntu as base system and just fluxbox no desktop ...etc [01:07] cscho0415: from your vacation do `ssh -L 2222:finaltarget:22 your.home.address` [01:07] Alright, how about now? anyone here work with Bitpim and Jaunty? [01:07] vlt: thanks thats what i needed [01:07] i have newly installed ubuntu and am having a lot of problems with a jumpy video. this is for films and games...both of which worked perfectly before. is there a way to adjust the video card? [01:07] purplefool: Did you enable the video card drivers? [01:07] cscho0415: When the connection is established run the `ssh -p 2222 localhost` command [01:07] Sia-, I see, well having fluxbox counts as a desktop (ie GUI) [01:08] mnaines: It's the desktop... I actually installed ubuntu for my brother in law at my house with MY mouse, and monitor, and now his mouse and monitor are acting this way... so you are probably on the right track. [01:08] vlt: im gonna try [01:08] mnaines, how do i go about doing that? [01:08] bazhang, i use X [01:08] hmm - I can't upgrade to hardy cos the gutsy repos have disappeared... :( [01:08] mnemonic76: Is he using a CRT or LCD monitor? [01:08] Anyone know where I can find IMG versions of Koala? [01:08] vlt: i did "ssh -L 2222:192.168.1.100:22 my.external.ip" [01:08] purplefool: System>Administration>Hardware Drivers [01:09] mnaines: It was INSTALLED on an LCD mon, and now connected to CRT... === cjones is now known as usrlocalbin [01:09] I'm having issues with bitpim and USB if anyone can help me that'd be greatly appreciated. I looked up the bitpim USB linux guide, and followed everything there. Even tried running bitpim as room. detects everything just won't detect the phone. Anyone know what I can do to get it to work? [01:09] i'm tired of installing nvidia driver (from site) to ubuntu it says missing nvidia-glx or something how to fix [01:09] mnemonic76: That may be where the problem is. The refresh rate on the CRT has to be higher or else its bad on the eyes [01:09] mnemonic76: That higher refresh rate is causing the problem [01:10] mnaines: Where do I change that? [01:10] mnaines, this always reports that there are no proprietary drivers on the system... [01:10] cscho0415: I'm not sure if you really need forwarding. You can also just use your router's shell to establish a new connection to the final target ... [01:10] vlt: thats what i need to do but idk if my router has a shell === cjones is now known as usrlocalbin [01:11] mnemonic76: Put simply: Unless you want your friend to go blind, you can't. CRTs have to run at least 85Hz refresh rate or higher to be nice to the eyes, while LCDs don't need to be set more than 60Hz [01:11] anyone? [01:11] cscho0415: Ok then use forwarding. Your router has no shell but allows ssh access? [01:11] purplefool: What kind of video card do you have? [01:12] gads...think it is an on-board deal...didn't have the money for a real one. [01:12] I'm thinking of downgrading or switching to fedora if I can't get this to work.. it's rediculous [01:12] jayferd: There's no "between" for using block devices for file systems or swap space :) [01:12] vlt: its my router thats teh problem... i have ubuntu firewall on my linux box and it only allows local ip's, the external ip, and 1 other ip to ssh in [01:12] its not my router thats the problem* [01:12] mnaines: But if I would have installed Ubuntu on his machine at his apartment with his CRT and mouse, it would have installed fine I am certain... I guess I don't get why I cant fix it. [01:12] hm okay, i guess i'll try moving the swap space to the end [01:12] what directory does wine pull its programs from? [01:13] jayferd: No, you need a partition for swapspace. [01:13] mnaines, sorry...forgot to write to you...am using an on-board video chip set [01:13] ah okay [01:13] it's probably on like sda4 or something [01:14] mnemonic76: Because the problem is the refresh rate. ANY operating system install defaults to settings for a 60Hz refresh rate, so if you're running a CRT at 85Hz refresh rate, there are always going to be problems. Only way to fix it is to upgrade to an LCD [01:14] bazhang, i think the solution from usser worked fine, if you have not another solution!? [01:14] the actual partition names are a little more scrambled, since i created them in a different order [01:14] purplefool: That is probably the problem. I do not know if Linux is very friendly with onboard video cards [01:14] mnaines, the thing is that the old install from ubuntu was through windows...now that windows is not involved i have this video problem. [01:14] mnaines: Thanks. [01:15] purplefool: That is probably the cause then. Try doing a clean install from a CD instead of through Windows [01:15] I have a problem with mysql installation. AppArmour thing failed to load. I disabled it. but still mysql always gives password not correct though I have resetted password a few times just to be sure [01:15] i think the boot image is on sda1 (at the end), the / partition is on sda2 (at the beginning), the /home partition is sda3, and swap is on sda4 [01:15] hi! i was getting an error... symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference... and then i found that a possible solution would be export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.21... but now no nothing functions at all.... anyone can help me?

I disabled it. but still mysql always gives password not correct though I have resetted password a few times just to be sure [01:16] mnaines, no no, that is what i have done. BEFORE it was through windows and now it is a clean install. [01:16] sp0 installed from where [01:16] jayferd: When you have decent network connection you can also just use `debootstrap` to install ubuntu to a file system. [01:16] purplefool: Methinks its the onboard video card [01:16] baz, using aptitude upgrade [01:16] What does this mean? E: couldn't find pckage build-dep [01:16] mnaines, through windows it just took over the config from windows. on its own it is not doing it correctly. [01:16] mavity: are you talking about the wine menu in your programs list? [01:17] i try do this apt-get install build-dep python2.6 [01:17] no one in here uses the new deluge? [01:17] spO, this is jaunty? I dont see that version in Jaunty [01:17] Anyone know/ [01:17] hey guys, is there a way to customize the ssh motd with colors and such? [01:17] ? [01:17] purplefool: Again, methinks its the onboard video card. I am not going to repeat myself again, nor am I going to tell you what you want to hear. [01:17] mnaines, well, lets say that i cannot afford a new video card...how would i go about configuring the on-board stuff? [01:17] vlt: is there a way to "tunnel" to make my ip look like 192.168.1.1xx? [01:17] hello [01:17] baz, type aptitude update , then type aptitude dist-upgrade [01:17] purplefool: Alas, I do not mess with overclocking. Please find someone else.

It happens as soon as I drag something on the screen. [01:32] |alkasmolik|: It could also be that the drive itself was set for a slower speed. I do not mess with USB hard drives much as I prefer External Serial ATA [01:32] no [01:32] Alan1: the problem I think you have is your now stuck in between jaunty and karmic because the upgrade never completed. best bet is to backup any important data and do a fresh install. unless someone has a better idea [01:32] cozz, random chat in #ubuntu-offtopic [01:32] <|alkasmolik|> mnaimes its advertised to run usb 2.0 speeds [01:32] ok [01:33] <|alkasmolik|> mnaimes also 1000kb/sec is that heard of for speeds on an external usb drive?

[01:42] need some help: for multi-screen setup, I have an HMD working with my s-video out port, but when I turn it on, the screen (on my HMD) has this thingie like its slowly burning out each time on the edge of the screen. I think this is because gnome-display-preferences is not giving me the right refresh rate, but that's the only one it will let me choose from (30 Hz) How do I enter it manually? Is there a config file somewhere? [01:42] |alkasmolik|: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16839200005 [01:42] lilzeus: you have tried entering \\ipaddress\sharename into windows explorer addressbar? [01:42] lilzeus: Ok, what happens when you type "\\your.ubuntu.ip" into the browser on the windows machine? [01:42] how do you change the mac address of your box, or of your NIC? [01:42] Sia-: [01:42] <|alkasmolik|> mnaimes still the issue of, if its not a highspeed device, then why does it tell me it is? and why wont it load as a highspeed device? [01:42] vlox: temporarily, with ifconfig [01:42] why I can't unmount ipod even though its not connected? [01:43] LinuX2half: plug it back in then unmount it [01:43] vlox: is that ifconfig's only function? [01:43] Sia: are you try to upgrade to Karmic?

Not all USB drives operate at the advertised speeds [01:44] i cant make sense of those manuals [01:44] where do I find my share name? [01:44] lilzeus: i forget wher the file is stored in windows [01:44] ldleOne: I don't have root power [01:45] is it in the smb.conf file? [01:45] LinuX2half: sure you do - use "sudo" to temp. gain root power [01:45] <|alkasmolik|> mnaimes its really pathetic. lol but i remember seeing higher speeds in past kernels. what kernels? i forget. But i used ot get at least 5 - 10 mb/sec speeds! now its taking 15 minutes to copy a 700mb file! [01:45] lilzeus: no /etc/hosts -- you man have to edit that and put in the hostname and ip of the windows machine.... [01:45] vlox: "hw ether ad:dr:es:s" with ifconfig or in /etc/network/interfaces [01:45] lilzeus, yes, samba shares are in the smb.conf file [01:45] ldleone: so I type in sudo unmount /media/dev/srd0? [01:46] Does anyone know where I can change the configuration of Nicotine-plus to allow more than 1 download at the same time? [01:46] vlt: is there a way to obtain permissions for copying the files using the GUI? or do i hav to move it in terminal [01:46] I'm having issues with bitpim and USB if anyone can help me that'd be greatly appreciated. I looked up the bitpim USB linux guide, and followed everything there. Even tried running bitpim as room. detects everything just won't detect the phone. Anyone know what I can do to get it to work? [01:46] what is the share name? [01:46] Alan1: gksudo nautilus [01:46] ldleone: it said command not found..... [01:46] is it the path? [01:46] comment? [01:46] Would it be possible to "upgrade" from Debian to Ubuntu using apt? [01:46] I used these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html#samba-fileserver-configuration [01:46] LinuX2half: umount without the n [01:46] lilzeus, if you haven't created a share, there won't be anything there [01:47] Alan1: I don't know. What live CD are you running? [01:47] necroforest, no [01:47] lilzeus: did you set the samba password? [01:47] vlt: does eth0 go in the place of ether? [01:47] im running ubuntu [01:47] vlox: no, "ether is the device class" [01:47] putting the IP into a browser in Windows, example 192.168.1.5, yields my Apache default page which says "It works!" [01:47] Sorry, I was gone. Did anyone answer my question yet (not pressuring) [01:47] vlox: no, "ether" is the device class [01:48] Bluey: that opened up a GUI, but i dont think it gives me root privilages on my other hardisk [01:48] dam [01:48] Bluey: no, where/how do I do that? [01:48] lilzeus, yay! apache is working [01:48] <|alkasmolik|> nightshade cttrl +f ur name scroll up have a look [01:48] Alan1: yes id does... [01:48] thedude42: yes, it is. But I already knew that...lol [01:48] ldleone: don't know what to type...? [01:48] i don't have samba installed - I think it's smbpass iirc [01:48] lilzeus, if you want to browse to the samba share, open internet explorer (or a regular explorer window) and put \\192.168.1.5 [01:48] ldleone the ipod drive icon seemed to be located in my computer folder and in my desktop [01:49] Does anyone know where I can change the configuration of Nicotine-plus to allow more than 1 download at the same time? [01:49] sorry if this is OT, but has anyone tried using the C4580 or F4580 AIO printers by HP? of course I wanna know whether they play nice with linux [01:49] vlt: what does that mean? [01:49] Bluey: oh i see i haev to edit the privileges now, thank you so much [01:49] thedude42: I have, and I just told you what I get when I do that...I get the Apache default page which say "It works!" [01:49] vlox: Have you read `man ifconfig`? [01:49] http://linuxprinting.org drbobb check here [01:49] i said the mans dont make any sense to me [01:50] LinuX2half: sudo umount /media/dev/srd0 [01:50] bazhang: I know that site. I'm asking here because I found nothing of substance on the web [01:50] Im installing Ubuntu 8,04 server edition but when I get to the step to "Select and install software" it fails any reasoning behind this? [01:50] lilzeus, you included \\ before the IP? [01:50] ldleone it said command not found [01:50] drbobb, if it says functional then its good; paperweight, then not [01:50] thedude42: yep [01:51] lilzeus, even in a regular explorer window? [01:51] I am on a KVM, so I am able to go back and forth quickly [01:51] thedude42: yep, I have even tried that [01:51] vlox [01:51] vlt [01:52] lilzeus, then something else is wrong, because that should force a browser query and not ask for anything on port 80 [01:52] bazhang: you didn't read what i wrote did you [01:52] ldleone: it said srd0 is the CD Drive not the usb port [01:52] lilzeus, try going through my network places [01:52] vlox: It says "ifconfig interface options". Then look at section OPTIONS, you'll find the hw ether part I already posted. [01:52] the f4580 is not on the linuxprinting printers list at all [01:52] wow, it seems to be working now [01:53] vlt what is hw ether? [01:53] lilzeus, yes, windows networking is often a mystery..... [01:53] the c4580 is on the list, but it's no longer manufactured [01:54] the name of the share is...share [01:54] how do I change that...lol [01:54] lilzeus, how did you add the share in the first place? [01:54] http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-Photosmart_C4580 drbobb 'works perfectly' [01:54] how do I unmount an ipod drive? [01:54] thedude42: I followed these instructions precisely https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html#samba-fileserver-configuration [01:55] bazhang: that's cool but it's out of stock in most places [01:55] I copied and pasted their code [01:55] I can't seem to unmount it using the sudo command [01:55] vlox: Please read the section in the manpage I pointed to. [01:55] bazhang: on the other hand, the hplip site suggests network connectivity does not work between this printer and linux [01:55] Im installing Ubuntu 8,04 server edition but when I get to the step to "Select and install software" it fails any reasoning behind this? [01:55] In seahorse, how do I automatically allow a default keyring? A popup to enter the default keyring for my wireless network comes up every time I restart. [01:55] I can't seem to identify my usb port.....?? [01:56] lilzeus, right so look in smb.conf, the share definition should be there somewhere, after the [share] declaration [01:56] Does anyone know how to manually enter a refresh rate in gnome-display-preferences? [01:56] drbobb, no idea, I just say what that link above said; a look at the ubuntuforums may suggest more [01:56] thedude42: do you mind if I go private and send you the [share] declaration? [01:56] bazhang: it does not, that happens to be the reason I'm asking here [01:57] lilzeus, sure [01:57] LinuX2half: sudo umount /path to were ipod is mounted [01:57] how can I adjust balance between left and right speaker? [01:57] bazhang: I was hoping for a first-hand account, not advice that I search the web [01:58] hi [01:58] hw class address [01:58] Set the hardware address of this interface, if the device driver [01:58] supports this operation. The keyword must be followed by the [01:58] name of the hardware class and the printable ASCII equivalent of [01:58] the hardware address.

[01:59] sorry [01:59] vlt that's what it says [01:59] Hello, anyone here having issues with AppArmor not generating and saving profiles properly (in Karmic)? [01:59] FeasibilityStudy, #ubuntu+1 for karmic support [02:00] bazhang: thanks [02:00] If a file exists but could not be read, is it an issue of permissions or something else entirely?? :/ [02:00] ynk, which file [02:00] If I have a serial connection to Ubuntu, which tty will bring me to a typical login prompt, rather than leaving on the loading terminal? [02:01] bazhang, i created a config "profile" in an effort to setup a VPN client to my campus. i'm trying to connect with the file i created and all i get is "The profile specified could not be read." [02:01] Could the op please tell me wether flooding is okay when it's a private message instead of on the main IRC? Since they could close that out, it's probably not as bad, right? Correct me if I'm wrong. [02:01] nightshade: With permission, go nuts. [02:02] cool [02:02] Without permission, they'll likely /ignore you. [02:02] vlox: What's the problem then? [02:02] well, if they ignore me, at least that's not as bad as getting kicked off. [02:02] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN ynk this may be helpful [02:02] bazhang, ah thanks buddy! :] [02:03] So, I take it nobody knows how to do it? [02:03] nightshade: note that you can still send PMs fast enough you get kicked off [02:03] nightshade, do what [02:03] oh [02:04] but most clients will make sure that doesn't happen by slowing down the messages [02:04] so it should be fine [02:04] manually change the refresh rate on gnome-display-preferences. [02:04] instead of using the drop-down-menu [02:04] vlt what's the hardware class of a wifi card, and what do they mean ascii equivalent? [02:05] Prodego: but, that would require a script, which I am not enough of an asshole to write. [02:05] bazhang, hmm. perhaps the "chmod a+x" on my file is probably the vital step i missed. it doesn't exactly explain that step. what is a+... never mind. i'll do more research on the command "chmod". :P [02:06] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions ynk this may something [02:06] err have [02:06] got it. [02:08] vlt what's the hardware class of a wifi card, and what do they mean ascii equivalent? [02:08] Networking question ... if anyone's around. [02:08] vlox: On top of all possible ecryption wifi cards are talking ethernet too. The ascii equivalent is the 12:34:56:78:90 notation [02:09] When I use the UI to configure a static IP address for my eth0 ... [02:09] It doesn't seem to store that configuration in the /etc/network/interfaces file ... is that true? [02:09] anyone have any luck with creative webcam ID 041e:0x4055? [02:10] does anyone know how to install adobe flash player or java on ubuntu? [02:11] ubuntu2, the ubuntu-restricted-extras package includes those [02:11] bazhang: just typing that :) [02:11] ok so if i reset the mac address of my box should it disconnect from the network temporarily, vlt? [02:11] winterswift, :) [02:13] vlox: i think it won't let xou change the hw address when the interface is up.

But when you mount a file system on it you have to unmount it before unplugging. [02:49] bazhang thanks [02:49] siva what are you trying to do? [02:50] edbian, this way the app isnt available to all users.. not that you couldnt change the perms anywa..

[02:52] can grub bootloader had an option to see which drive can I boot to? [02:52] marsha: then it is a windows users only site it seems. kinda sucks [02:52] thanks bazhang - you have answered for my next question [02:52] marsha: check out moonlight.. it's opensource [02:52] IdleOne: maybe if I use the firefox user agent switcher.. [02:52] lilzeus: You could open terminal windows runnibg `watch -n 1 lsusb` and `tail -f /var/log/syslog` and see what happens when (un)plugging [02:53] i do have PC BSD iso onto a CD.

[02:54] thanks [02:55] for some reason the NetworkManager is not showing up in the notifications area, any suggestion how to get it back? [02:55] but will always stick with ubuntu - always [02:55] top class [02:55] every member of my office just fallen in love with [02:55] hey quick question has anyone recently been getting problems retrieving packages from canonical/ubuntu? not even all files just a few like upgrades to ubuntu one or nvidia packages [02:55] \ [02:55] i am not a computer person [02:55] does anyone know where archive manager is? [02:55] no help in #ubuntu+1, bazhang [02:55] haymaker, some have complained recently with the karmic beta coming out [02:55] sorry bazhang .. my 3 year old likes to type :\ [02:55] ubuntu2: what do you mean? [02:55] haven489, be patient [02:56] haymaker: you might want to change the repository it uses [02:56] ubuntu2: its sort of an automatic thing like double clicking a RAR file [02:56] haven489, one min, I'll look in. [02:56] ubuntu2: but if you go into edit menu i think its in there somewhere [02:56] interesting - I switched user agent to IE 8 and went to website and it thought I was running windows IE8 - user agent switcher works good! [02:56] scunizi: thanks [02:56] now that Jaunty is stabilised (at least for my laptop) should I upgrade to Koala soon [02:56] ubuntu2: its called file-roller, its not enabled in the menu by default, but you can add it in system -> prefs -> main menu === nosrepa is now known as aperson [02:56] siva: wait until the 30th [02:57] it didn't go automtaically. it asked me to specify the application to open with [02:57] no I am not talking about any particular dates, but I feel even Jaunty is too good for most of the applications [02:58] except for my inbuilt webcam (Lenovo 3000 G530) everything works perfectly [02:58] vlt: "forcibly attempting to lazy unmount" [02:58] i've got an ide raid card and i'm trying to put ubuntu on this box [02:58] thanks to all [02:58] siva, then try the live cd if you wish after the 30th, but if you are happy stick with Jaunty [02:59] hi, I think I've got some problems with java, I am not to watch any youtube movies anymore ... there's only one black screen instead . Any Idea how to fix this? [02:59] however when i go to install ubuntu, it sees the drives as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb [02:59] is this normal? [02:59] thanks once again [02:59] siva: at least for 18 months until it's end of life [02:59] musikgoat: I dont have an edit menu [02:59] i've set up a mirrored set through the raid bios on my card [02:59] ok I have ubuntu 8.04 [02:59] wget [03:00] ubuntu2: i didn't say edit menu [03:00] I need php5-zend and php5-pdo [03:00] I have been told there is a repo with them in it [03:01] musikgoat: well how do I get to edit [03:01] vlt: when I plug it back in, I get this: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 32 [03:01] ubuntu2: System -> Preferences -> Main Menu [03:01] vlt: then this: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [03:01] ubuntu2: you want to have Archive Manager available in your program list, right? [03:01] vlt: then that last message repeats [03:02] vlt: then it says: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 33 [03:02] musikgoat: yes [03:02] this is fascinating. [03:03] thanks. [03:03] lilzeus: Does it behave the same when unmounting the file system first before unplugging? [03:03] moonlight works great! [03:03] thanks for all the help! [03:04] vlt: it runs through and tries several addresses, I see a message that it is not running at top speed, then finally it works [03:04] mgmuscari: What did you expect? Only one drive? [03:04] vlt: you want me to unmount and then plug back in again? [03:04] vlt: i expect to see my raid set show up here, not both disks... [03:04] musikgoat: actually, i've already used archive manager in the past when it opens automatically, but for some reason it didn't open auto this time [03:04] lilzeus: Yes, to check if it runs faster then. [03:04] ubuntu2: what are you trying to do? [03:05] vlt: instead i see both disks including their model numbers - the card's bios states that it installs the disks as something else [03:05] no difference [03:05] hello [03:05] its trying various addresses [03:05] is it ok to install i386 deb packages in ubuntu amd64? [03:05] on boot i also don't see these showing up as devices on any ide buses [03:05] trying to pre-order from https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ I get "You have already received our maximum number of allowed shipments. Please download the CD image and record it yourself. " [03:06] any clue whats they max limit for shipment is ? [03:06] lilzeus: You could check another usb drive. If it's the same maybe there's a problem with the usb driver and your hardware. [03:06] vlt: meaning the motherboard, not the drives...they appear to work fine under windows [03:07] musikgoat: i'm trying to install java from the website [03:07] mgmuscari: Ubuntu recently switches to sdX names for IDE dirves too. That doesn't solve the RAID problem though ... [03:07] how do i create an alias to change working directory to my public_html directory, and show a long list the index.html file [03:07] vlt: yeah, i knew that much, but this is vexing me... i'm wondering if i just try to set up on one of the drives [03:08] musikgoat: i downloaded the file, but it wont open automatically [03:08] will the card handle the mirroring properly.... [03:08] trying to do raid 1 here [03:08] i want to call the alias "gogogo" [03:08] ubuntu2: what is the file extension? [03:08] fufu1: `ln -s target alias` [03:08] ? what [03:08] hi, I think I've got some problems with java, I am not to watch any youtube movies anymore ... there's only one black screen instead . Any Idea how to fix this? [03:08] vlt: trying a different drive now [03:09] install the flash player [03:09] not java [03:09] mgmuscari: If you want raid and your raid hardware isn't supported you can run software raid in linux kernel (which works well btw) [03:09] vlt isnt it something like alias gogogo='cd /home/user/public_html ls -l index.html' [03:09] does anyone know how to fix bad header lines in apt-proxy? [03:09] vlt: i can see my raid controller with lspci [03:10] fufu1: Ok, I didn't understand what you really wanted ;-) [03:11] How do I trap my mouse within a set of coordinates on the screen? [03:12] vlt: it takes a little over 30 seconds for devices to be recognized, whether ejected or not [03:14] vlt: do you know how to add two commands to a single alias? I want to change to a folder and then list a file === LjL-Temp is now known as LjL [03:14] alias __ & __ [03:14] fufu1: seperate the commands with && [03:14] alias name __&& __ [03:15] ok thnks [03:15] if a vlt: how do i set up software raid then [03:15] fufu1: Or just `alias gogogo='cmd 1; cmd 2'` [03:16] musikgoat:.bin [03:16] mgmuscari: `mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/first_disk_or_partition /dev/seond...` for example [03:17] hmm ok [03:17] musikgoat:rpm.bin [03:17] i'm going to try recreating the raid set and copying the contents of the first drive to the second before i do that [03:17] thanks vlt [03:18] mgmuscari: Do you need the raid just for data or do you want to run the whole OS on it? [03:21] Whenever I restart Ubuntu, I get a popup asking to enter my encryption key for the keyring for my wireless network. This is really annoying. How do I set it to get the password without confirmation? [03:21] anyone know of a good movie file converter for ubuntu? [03:21] bigtom21485: try ffmpeg [03:22] I'm manually doing my partition... what should the "mount point" be for a dual boot installation? [03:22] davidma22: are you manually doing the partitions? [03:22] Yes. [03:22] bigtom21485, handbrake [03:23] Sex Can I click Login http://www.chatvebiz.tr.gg [03:23] Sex Can I click Login http://www.chatvebiz.tr.gg [03:23] NazL: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:23] davidma22: you're going to need a minimum of 2 partitions for the install.. preferably 3.. but 2 works.. for the OS and your data is root symbolized by "/" .. the other is /swap [03:24] how to force Ubuntu to remove a folder even if it is not empty ? [03:24] davidma22: if you want to create a seperate partition for all of your personal data then "/" should be 8-12 gigs.. /swap at 2x of your ram ... and the rest /home [03:24] bazhang: thankies [03:25] !info xapi [03:25] Package xapi does not exist in jaunty [03:25] !xapi [03:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about xapi [03:25] pshr_, please /msg ubottu [03:25] Hm. Okay, I have a previous installation of 64-bit ubuntu, that I'm trying to overwrite.. there's the main partition, then 3 that say "ntfs", and another that says "linux-swap" [03:26] AnirbanHazra-> rm -Rf === violetblood_ is now known as violetblood [03:27] I'm overwriting with 32bit, so do I need to delete the "linux-swap" as well as the main one? [03:27] No [03:27] * StavroM just installed 9.10 today - didn't survive a reboot [03:28] how do I use the 'cut' command to select the first line of a text file ? [03:28] fufu1: i think cut is for columns [03:29] fufu1: you could use "head -n 1" [03:29] i see [03:29] fufu1: like: head -n 1 foo.tt [03:29] n8tuser: Thanks , it worked [03:29] I need php5-pdo and pdo_sqlite is there a repo with it in it [03:30] for 8.04.3 [03:30] hi [03:30] i have a big problem [03:30] callnett, in karmic?

[03:33] callnett, /join #ubuntu+1 === mumtazah1 is now known as mumtazah [03:34] Whenever I restart Ubuntu, I get a popup asking to enter my encryption key for the keyring for my wireless network. This is really annoying. How do I set it to get the password without confirmation?

[03:41] KnifeySpooney: http://davestechsupport.com/blog/2009/01/16/how-to-remove-ubuntus-password-keyring/ [03:41] it's a security risk, tho [03:41] GothFreak27: Have you tried sudo update-manager -d" first?

[03:43] GothFreak27: Same happened to me === nils- is now known as nils_ [03:43] how do I use the pipe command to remove leading space of lines>? [03:43] KnifeySpooney: Or, if you keyring password is the same as your login password... sudo apt-get install libpam-keyring [03:43] KnifeySpooney: then: echo "@include common-pamkeyring" | sudo tee -a /etc/pam.d/gdm [03:43] has anyone had any problems with UrbanTerror suddenly losing sound, then when trying to exit, totally freeze? [03:44] it was amarok that did it, not apt [03:44] GothFreak27: Yes - I thought your system was broken during the update. If you just don't want to download the files again, then I'm out of good news :-/ [03:44] How do i allow myself, as a normal user, to use xSANE with my USB connected printer? If i run it as sudo i can use it, but not as a normal user [03:44] I also cant get JACK working at all in jaunty [03:44] I am in deep need of help, I am trying to remove xubuntu AND kubuntu, but it's trying to remove my plesk also [03:45] i used this guide: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnomehardy - why would it want to remove plesk? [03:45] !puregnome | zcherus [03:45] zcherus: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal [03:45] thanks bazhang let me see if that will work [03:46] no go === asad is now known as Guest90007 [03:46] i messed up, i never used nothing but command line on this machine [03:46] and then i had to get some sort of gui so i opted for xubuntu which was terrible experience [03:47] what channel is for people who are brand new for ubuntu?

[03:51] * bitsweeper is testing aircrack-ng [03:52] i need to get rid of 0 disk space asap because i cannot work and i am screwed up bigtime if i dont finish this [03:52] zcherus: im thinking you might need a bit of room to get an unistall going. You can add some more removable drive space, maybe you can mount it and use it for temp space for the unistaller. I expect if you installed stuff, you can at least uninstall part of it the same way [03:52] frank3ly, please paste.ubuntu.com with the errors from sudo apt-get update [03:52] somebody help me with this: http://pastebin.ca/1624496 that file does not exis [03:52] t [03:52] mb_again_ whenever i try to uninstal kubuntu or xubuntu it wants to remove my plesk as well, thats the whole problem [03:52] i will be :S hard cause the errors are on my laptop and thing that im gonna install is the network manager [03:53] i plugged in 16gb flash drive which is empty [03:53] my last option is to backup everything [03:53] bastid_raZor: Thank you so much, now can you help me with this? http://pastebin.ca/1624496 That file does not excist [03:53] frank3ly, you have not networking presently on that computer? [03:53] !cut [03:53] Sorry, I don't know anything about cut [03:53] !cat [03:53] i messed up [03:53] The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [03:53] !cut [03:53] this i was changing network manager to wicd [03:53] fufu1, please /msg ubottu [03:53] zcherus: plesk is beyond me. Sorry. [03:54] either on flash or via network and then reinstall, but setting up plesk again and all domains will take me more time then i have to finish what i am doing which means i am a dead man comes the monday morning [03:54] but i got a problem with the apt get and now something is stuck [03:54] Hi Everyone, I want to ask if its possible that I can select which drive to boot from the GRUB bootloader...? [03:54] does someone knows how to install webos quick installer for the palm [03:54] frank3ly, without errors to troubleshoot it is very hard to help you [03:54] mb_again_ plesk is running fine all this time, it's just that removing kubuntu-desktop for example tries to remove plesk as well - no idea why [03:54] one question though [03:54] the problem is [03:54] if i removed it and then installed back all the packages that are plesk related, it would work right? [03:55] gotta restart real quic [03:55] it seems that synaptic is running and i cannot access to another app that use it [03:55] frank3ly, then close synaptic [03:55] so [03:55] i cannot [03:55] how i do that [03:56] frank3ly, is synaptic running? open a terminal and type top [03:57] i'm having trouble playing dvds, i've installed all the restricted codecs etc, but when i open a dvd the program opens but promptly closes === violetblood is now known as justnot [03:57] no is not:S [03:57] zcherus: i think that is a scary idea. I would be adding some disk space to make the system usabel for whatever it does. and possibly some surgical unistalls of xxxbuntu components. your installer should be able to list back all the things installed. Try removing components that are irrelevant to the machien [03:58] frank3ly, then sudo apt-get update in the terminal and paste.ubuntu.com with the error message [03:58] mb_again_ there comes the problem, I always used command line only, never even bothered with gui, so I dont have idea where to go, what to read, what to do. I am only familiar with command line as all I do is web related, so most I ever needed was to maybe edit crontab and things like that. [03:59] xcherus: another concept entirely: can you make a full and usable backup of the machine as it is? If so, you can do that then go to town with your scary Idea knowing that if it blows up you can be back where you are now. === MsgServer is now known as Dougdoug4 [03:59] zcherus: which command? apt? aptitude? somthing else? [03:59] mb_again_ right now i am trying to remove some crap, just so i get enough to backup stuff [04:00] i backed up all domains, but because there's no space, plesk can't even gzip them and i cant download em [04:00] sagaci, and you installed the package libdvdcss2 from medibuntu.org ? [04:00] unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing [04:00] i tried with aptitude right now [04:00] bazhang: yep [04:00] and its nto looking good [04:01] anybody here with knowledge of fluxbox? [04:01] i freed up like 14 megs, removing some crap, biggest problem is that i dont have idea what is what except my usual stuff, plesk/apache/mysql/php etc, so i am afraid that i will remove something that i shouldnt and PAF i am dead person [04:01] job: been a long while, I used to use it as my primary DE [04:01] some index files failed to download they have been ignore, or old ones used instead [04:01] there is a way to change windows decoration can't remember how === toby_ is now known as tobyn [04:02] job: definitely. It's in the right-click menu, or at least used to be [04:02] not styles [04:02] job: fluxbox is a window manager, not a decorator [04:02] some index files failed to download they have been ignore, or old ones used instead [04:03] job: the fluxbox window borders are part of the styles, unless you're running Compiz or Metacity instead [04:03] frank3ly, what version of ubuntu [04:03] You would have to configure gdm to use it, I think [04:03] i know but there is a small program that change windows decorations i used it before. cant remember the name [04:03] i do have a backup but backup is about 10 days old, and in last 5 days i worked close to 100 hours :S [04:04] 9.04 [04:04] i tried fluxbox IRC but nobody there [04:05] job: i think all linux wizards are here. =) [04:06] zcherus: use the temp disk to get your current backup done and safe. Take a deep breath and clean it up [04:07] yeah thats what i am going to do, just need to free some more space so system can breathe [04:07] zcherus: possibly get rid of some of the .gz logs in /var/logs/ [04:08] maybe i am not explaining myself very well. [04:08] if you got any names of crap packages that come with kubuntu it would be helpful [04:08] bastid_raZor think i already clearead the logs, but good idea, let me check it up [04:08] PROBLEM: Whenever i boot, i get the message that my home directory appears to be /home/cody, but it could not be found, do i want to use / instead? I click no, then it gives me the error: "Users $HOME/.dmrc file is ignored... It should be owned by the user and have 644 permisions. What is wrong? [04:08] http://yfrog.com/1rscreenshot1ip [04:09] could someone please tell me what the problem is? [04:09] I am on LiveCD right now [04:09] the area of the app with file-edit-and such is kind of dull without the decoration. about years ago i used fluxbox then i had to install a little program to give gnome decoration to apps [04:09] cody___, does /home/cody exist? Is user cody the owner? [04:10] joeb3_: Both should be yes, i will mount the partition that has /home on it to see if something happened [04:10] kind just remember the name of the program [04:10] so I have an windows installation CD, but GRUB doesn't seem to noticed the disk.....so is there a way to work around this situation? [04:10] joeb3_: Yes, /home/cody exists. [04:11] I edited my fstab file, could that be it? [04:11] cody___, ls -l /home. does cody own cody? [04:11] hi [04:11] joeb3_: Would that command still apply since i am on a live cd? [04:11] cody___, dare I ask what you did to fstab/ [04:11] joeb3_: haha. I added /proc/bus/usb to it [04:11] http://yfrog.com/1rscreenshot1ip help NO SOUND [04:12] cody___, so remove it. Sounds like /home is not being mounted. [04:12] concretesledge - what system is missing sound? [04:12] bazhang: r u still here? [04:12] uBUNTU [04:12] joeb3_: Okay, how would i do so? I am on the liveCD [04:12] macdleodr onboard NVIDIA HDA [04:12] it was working minutes ago [04:13] callnett, yes [04:13] concretesledge - ok but what hardware? [04:13] cody___, mount the hard drive and edit the fstab. [04:13] macleodr, i installed a sound card that worked for a while, then stopped .. now i have no sound at all [04:13] joeb3_: I will be allowed to without being sudo? [04:13] macleodr, the sound hardware? [04:13] cody___, you can sudo from the livecd [04:13] bazhang: so i did everithing how u ask [04:13] HDA NVidia Sound Card [04:14] joeb3_: I found out what happened!!! For some reason, when i had it add the line to fstab, it removed everything else [04:14] how do i *gulp* how do i restore it? [04:14] macleodr, HDA NVidia Sound Card [04:14] con...edge - I was just wondering if you were on a macbook like me... sound works for headphone jack but not speakers. [04:14] no IBM [04:14] the sound was working just fine before [04:14] Can GRUB boot CDs? [04:15] LinuX2half: Yes [04:15] cody___, if you don't have a backup, create it manually. Use /etc/fstab on the livecd as a guide. [04:15] as long as your BIOS supports it [04:15] joeb3_: Okay, cause i never expected that hehe I will c/p [04:15] LinuX2half: Why not just use your BIOS boot menu? [04:15] in a way [04:15] can I play a different region DVD in ubuntu? [04:16] play or copy [04:16] cody__: Really but someone at the linux channel tells me GRUB can't boot Cds [04:16] My filesystem corrupted, can I fix it with the 9.10beta live cd? or will I have to download 9.04? [04:16] LinuX2half: you need to specify the proper hd id to grub [04:16] kiamo: what filesystem [04:16] Hard Disk Identification? [04:16] ext3 [04:16] joeb3_: Uh oh... i remember mine being very different :( [04:17] kiamo: try a e2fsck -fy first [04:17] i have 3 partitions. One for the system of ubuntu, one for /home, and one for the linux swap.

[04:32] You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. [04:33] simple to use [04:33] ubuntu_, ok in that terminal sudo nvidia-xconfig [04:33] i have tried that nvidia-xconfig [04:33] ok [04:33] and restarted, and made no difference [04:33] ubuntu_, mmmm [04:33] did you make sure your nvidia chipset is supported in the driver version you are trying to install?

I tried googleing without success. [04:49] Spreadsheet: Have you completely restarted firefox after you made the change? [04:50] bluey: well if thats the problem that it would be already resolved....but things go wrong all the time so.....even though the optical drive is in first order by default, I suspect that there's something else going on, UUID=80f73154-5559-4603-866f-2282bc7456dc / ext3 defaults 0 1 [04:50] UUID=ac99ff4b-becc-4ad1-bceb-2437705e69ba swap swap sw 0 0 [04:50] /dev/sr0 /mnt udf,iso9660 defaults 0 0 [04:50] Yes, I have turned off anti-aliased fonts for a while now and I have restarted the computer [04:50] camlin, please dont run bots in here without permission; was mdeonte your bot? [04:50] gamerx: got it for 920$ shipped [04:50] OpenBluntSurgery, haha friggen nice, obviously you have wiped: Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (64-bit) [04:50] It is really annoying to have every other application have normal fonts except ff [04:50] OpenBluntSurgery, USD? [04:51] gamerx: yeah i didnt even try it, just installed the beta [04:51] gamerx: yea [04:51] LinuX2half: you should have something that looks like this: /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 [04:51] you can get a refund for the windows if you request it [04:51] OpenBluntSurgery, 1 002 Australian dollars :) [04:51] yoophglup: hows that? [04:51] OpenBluntSurgery, thats really cheap... [04:51] hold on i'll give ya link [04:52] bluey: it seemed that your output doesn't match my own.... [04:52] gamerx: there was a coupon for 250$ off i found and 250$ instant rebate -- slickdeals.net [04:52] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_refund -good luck [04:52] for the guy with the ipod try this -- mount -o remount rw /dev/ipod (or whatever it's called) [04:53] OpenBluntSurgery, so it was originally about 1500, hmm good value : === TaTas is now known as TaTasKan [04:53] bluey: mine's are /dev/sr0 /mnt/ udf,iso9660 defaults 0 0 [04:53] gamerx: yeah [04:53] LinuX2half: that should work... [04:53] dunno [04:53] gamerx: i was looking all over for a native 1920x1080p laptop and this was the best deal [04:53] ...? [04:53] mnt -o loop [04:54] Spreadsheet: Okay try launching it like this: GDK_USE_XFT=0 firefox [04:54] my dad was sunOS my mother linux, and im a linos [04:54] LinuX2half: mine is a dvd looks like your's is a cd.... [04:54] some of my friends call me solux [04:54] OpenBluntSurgery, hmm fully sick, does the webcam work in linux, and i love the sounds of that backlit keyboard [04:54] ok coz_ the upgrades just finished downloading and it is installing now, i will restart, enable the nvidia hardware driver and restart again. brb [04:54] bluey: okay...but does that tell me that the cd is able to boot...? [04:54] Same thing [04:54] gamerx: looks like the webcam is working fine.. everything is fine except for the fingerprint scanner [04:54] gamerx: which is no big deal [04:55] OpenBluntSurgery, how do you access the image from the webcam, i can never seem to get it to work [04:55] LinuX2half: no - I'd try another disc -- if you have a bootable windows cd - and if tht works then that tells us the linux cd is bad -- if that doesn't work then it's probably bios [04:56] Errors were encountered while processing: [04:56] linux-headers-2.6.28-15-generic [04:56] linux-headers-generic [04:56] Spreadsheet: Hmmm, don't know then. Here's what I was looking at: http://www.linuxhowtos.org/Tips%20and%20Tricks/firefoxnoaa.htm [04:56] bluey: well the linux Cd is bootable at the GRUB process but not Windows CD though.... [04:56] I'll read that [04:56] LinuX2half: grub is NOT involved in booting a cd -- [04:58] bluey: so the BIOS is responsible for the CD.....? [04:58] gamerx: well i havent tried a program but dmesg shows as its loading 8.509298] input: HP Webcam as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb2/2-4/2-4:1.0/input [04:58] LinuX2half: yes... [04:58] LinuX2half: if you're getting to grub it's too late in the game -- [04:58] The program I was looking for to change the appearance of apps in fluxbox is gtk-chtheme. there are about three of them. I am sure my explanation let me down. [04:58] LinuX2half you can run those live CDs without even GRUB installed [04:58] That guide looks old [04:58] the swap usage is constantly near maximum (2600/2900mb) even though there is plenty space on the disk, is this a problem? [04:59] bluey: but like I tell you the LIVE CD worked but the windows is another story........ [04:59] shawn_: yes...thanks.. [04:59] Spreadsheet: Yeah, I know, but I though it might still work. No luck? [04:59] Nope [04:59] Bluey sarcasm? [04:59] thanks coz_ it works fine now, all i had to do was the dist-upgrade and part of that process was to install the 173 nvidia drivers, restarted, works fine [04:59] LinuX2half: you are trying to boot a copy of a windows cd? [04:59] I saw this Ubuntu Zilla thing [04:59] shawn_: not at all [04:59] It upgrades ff to the latest release [04:59] It might work [04:59] LinuX2half: dunno == sorry I couldn't help [04:59] ldleOne: yes, its an copy... [05:00] Bluey: thanks anyway [05:00] Bluey Oh okay. I thought you were being sarcastic since I stated the obvious but it hadnt been said and I didnt know if he realied X_X [05:00] LinuX2half: I suspect your copy is not bootable. [05:00] hi guys [05:00] shawn_: not today...but I am fluent in sarcasm [05:00] anyone have an idea why there would be like 16 sshd processes running at once, and like 14apaches in ps -A. Only 2 ppl are ssh connected and neithor of us are using apache [05:00] Bluey Haha arent we all xD [05:00] ldleOne: Really? How do I know it for sure that its not a bootable disc? [05:00] shawn_: indeed [05:00] iarp, somebody is hacking you [05:00] so i think im going to try out this compizfusion stuff [05:01] ldleOne: so if I try to use this windows cd then it won't work with ANY computer correct? [05:01] OpenBluntSurgery, sweet, my stats are here: input: http://bit.ly/15SjTd [05:01] iarp: Apache keeps a minimum number of children open. There should be a setting in the config file somewhere for it. [05:01] Spreadsheet: Maybe...don't know why firefox is an exception to the universal anti-aliasing settings, though. [05:01] I installed firefox-3.5 [05:01] as for sshd? [05:01] gamerx: are you using irssi? [05:01] This might be a problem with that release [05:01] LinuX2half: well make sure bios are set to boot from cd, ( ubuntu live cd boots so bios are set correct ) then popin the "windows" cd and try to boot it, if it doesn't you have a problem. [05:01] Spreadsheet: Why do you want to disable antialiasing anyway? [05:01] iarp: are you using scp or anything? [05:01] whats the dmesg command to find video (wecam) devices :) [05:01] I don [05:01] 't like the look of it... [05:01] OpenBluntSurgery, whats that? [05:02] kust0m: i did yesterday to xfer a crap load between an old linux server and this new one [05:02] gamerx: its a terminal based IRC client, kinda cool [05:02] I need some help with a sound issue. Can someone help me? [05:02] LinuX2half: yes if the cd is not bootable it wouldn't work with any computer [05:02] IdleOne: what? "ubuntu live cd boots so bios are set correct"???? [05:02] OpenBluntSurgery, hang on [05:02] kust0m: but the old ones shutdown now and not connected [05:02] IdleOne: regardless what's on the CD, the BIOS has to be set to boot from CD [05:02] iarp: unless they didn't exit that shouldn't be causing it. i'm not sure. [05:02] ldleone: well clearly that my computer won't give me a clue of what to press to boot from the CD..... [05:02] maco: if the bios are not set to boot from cd the ubuntu cd wont boot === carlos is now known as Guest55577 [05:02] From the top of one's head, does anyone know what the function or class to to read from a file in python is? I forgot. [05:02] Spreadsheet: Really? It's kinda funny, I'm trying to *get* antialiasing to work on all my programs (only working on some). [05:03] taz whats your issue [05:03] kust0m: would they exit automatically or would i have had to have done something [05:03] so if the ubuntu cd boots it's safe to assume the bios are correct [05:03] Looks like the ubuntuzilla wants to install 3.0 :S [05:03] IdleOne: oh ok. your sentence looked like "regardless how th bios is set, ubuntu cds will boot but windows cds require that you set the bios properly" and i was kinda O_o at that [05:03] just installed latest ubuntu on a virtual machine and have no sound [05:03] gamerx: try this dmesg |grep Webcam [05:03] Well, bye [05:03] it doesnt seem to recognise that I have a inbuilt soundcard [05:03] maco: :) sorry I didn't phrase that well [05:03] Hey all, when i setup my display settings using System -> Preferences -> Display, it asks me to log off and log back in, but when i do the settings a set arn't applied. Still show as default (Mirror Screens). Any ideas? [05:03] iarp: they should terminate on their own i believe. try 'ps auxwww | grep ssh', see if it tells you anything. you might want to check netstat for open connections to port 22. [05:04] TazManiac: What kind of virtual server? [05:04] can you use wildcards in grep? [05:04] cause dmesg |grep *web* is not working?

They can be used for bad things, and they can be used for good things. [05:11] Hello, how would I auto-mount internal drives on boot in 9.04? [05:11] datz, you might be able to get pulseaudio to emulate alsa, and get flash to use that, but I have never had success with that [05:11] !offtopic > nightshade [05:11] nightshade, please see my private message [05:11] tecywiz121, I read some people had fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling adobe flash, didn't work for me though. [05:11] sorry [05:11] maco: yeah, didn't see that till i hit enter [05:11] nightshade: drop it, before i get *really* annoyed [05:11] tonyyarusso: thanks ;) [05:11] sorry. [05:11] lolz im using irssi lol :0 [05:12] tecywiz121, ok, since it sounds complicated and didn't work for you, I'll skip it. [05:12] tecywiz121: er thats the default config [05:12] So, who needs help with something I have any idea about? [05:12] tecywiz121, is this a bug that can be fixed with upcoming releases? [05:12] nightshade: that depends on what you have an idea about [05:12] me =p [05:12] maco, blinks, then how does flash block access to the soundcard? [05:12] nightshade, hmm what Magnesium said [05:12] Well, when somebody asks something I know, I'll answer. [05:13] mezquitale, I'll try to find the sound chip [05:13] i know so little when someone asks something i know i'll mock them... (kidding) [05:13] nightshade, whats the dmesg command to show video devices? [05:13] otherwise, I'll idle. [05:13] datz, I'm actually not that familiar with it, I'm just dropping in for some help too :P [05:13] tecywiz121: shouldnt in jaunty... maybe hardy.... [05:13] is there a way in ubuntu to list the progs that only run in a terminal to be listed uder the applications and then when clicked on to automatically open a terminal [05:13] ryguy, look into fstab - that determines what gets mounted on boot. [05:13] nightshade, like webcams [05:13] tecywiz121, ok [05:13] how can i close all windows at the same time? [05:13] datz, sorry about that [05:13] gamerx: either "man dmesg" or "info dmesg" should tell you [05:13] np [05:14] datz: maybe try OSS with http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound ? no guarantees :) [05:14] ZykoticK9: yeah I saw fstab but I'm worried I might mess something up. are there any GUIs for doing this kind of thing? [05:14] Man/info and google will be thy saviors when starting with linux. [05:14] ryguy, for fstab - not that i'm personally aware of [05:14] i always end up with like 50 open windows on 4 sides of desktops and i have to restart to close them all or click each one close. is there anyway to close all open windows??? [05:14] hey guys... do u know any package that will install my dell devices drivers? [05:14] preecher: menu items can launch command line programs [05:15] MikeChelen, thanks, taking a look [05:15] Anyone know where the dev file for my touchpad went? [05:15] gamerx: try dmesg | grep audio [05:15] mine dont even list command line progs in the menu === BoxMagnet is now known as NCIS-AGENT [05:15] my ubuntu box has no sound.. [05:15] motech, nothing [05:15] ryguy: /etc/fstab [05:16] gamerx: if that doesn't work just do dmesg | less and look thru everything.. won't take long... [05:16] ZykoticK9: ahh I found one that just worked perfectly - pysdm [05:16] thanks anyways [05:16] does anyone know if xubuntu 9.04 (jaunty) w/ grub2 1.96 will boot w/ ext4 /boot partition? [05:16] UUID has made ubuntu usable for me. [05:16] ryguy: no, but I think worst case scenario, you'll wind up with a root terminal (hopefully you have a root password) and if you back it up on your root directory, you can copy it on there, and it will be as good as it was before you messed with it. [05:16] MikeChelen: sounds like he's having problems like only one program with sound at a time...so i'm guessing that OSS might not help...almost like that's what his problem is now [05:16] yoophglup: logout :P [05:16] hehe yeah that works too [05:16] motech, could it be: [ 1.021055] pci 0000:06:00.0: Boot video device [05:16] That's the worst thing that's ever happened to me when I messed with stuff [05:16] ryguy: also see "disk management" in add/remove [05:16] gamerx: nope, that's a videocard :) [05:17] MoTec, okay im doing |less now [05:17] i use to hit cntrl alt backspace but that doesn't work anymore [05:17] MikeChelen sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound ? [05:17] nope.. [05:17] Magnesium: ah thats true, would it be better for him to switch to pulseaudio or something? [05:18] how do I completely remove all elements of xfce ? [05:18] you should always make backups before you mess with ***ANYTHING*** in linux!!! [05:18] Magnesium, you're right, only one app at a time [05:18] oops [05:18] overdid the orange. [05:18] MikeChelen: That's exactly what I was thinking. I can't remember...I think Jaunty uses Pulse by default, but for some reason my computer was using alsa [05:18] NCIS-AGENT, carry on. [05:19] nightshade, ? [05:19] MoTec, how about this then: [ 9.700215] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device CNF7231 (04f2:b073) [05:19] [ 9.701959] input: CNF7231 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb2/2-5/2-5:1 [05:19] .0/input/input10 [05:19] yoophglup, think it's been replaced with ctrl+Print Screen+k (you can switch it by researching Don'tZap or something) [05:19] I thought doing that would make my point, but apparently it was overkill at this point [blush] [05:20] Magnesium: does alsa have the same problem as oss? if pulseaudio works with flash, that is probably best [05:20] gamerx: if you're looking for audio you can ignore any line that says anything about video :) [05:20] cool, russian. [05:20] nightshade, i dont use xfce anymore yet i feel like stuff is still running nd thats the login splash etc. [05:20] motech, sorry i thorght i said i was looking for my webcam xD [05:20] I've read that updateing to the lastest version of adobe flash might help, I would guess that the latest version in the repos isn't the very lastest from adobe, might updating to the very latest help? [05:20] well, um I don't know that one, sorry. [05:20] cool i'll check [05:20] gamerx: oh, sorry.. i thought you were looking for audio card.. i fail [05:21] datz: MikeChelen: i think alsa and pulse both support two programs at once...not completely sure though [05:21] motech, no its all good, so would that be it then? [05:21] actually, mabie I do. Hold on... [05:21] nightshade, figured, thanks ;-D [05:21] oh yea!/ [05:21] cool [05:21] i can figure it out [05:21] gamerx: it's gonna be a usb device, most likely.. try lsusb [05:21] just lazy i guess anymore [05:21] what is the solution to full screen video? [05:21] just take the source version, and look at the makefile and figure out where it puts stuff when it installs, and delete all of that. [05:22] What is the solution for full screen video. the video is choppy [05:22] MikeChelen: datz: yeah, just checked...alsa and pulse shoule both work to give you more that one sound at once. [05:22] NCIS-AGENT, you want pure gnome? [05:22] or, just say "make remove" or "make uninstall" if it has that (Never fooled with it, but usually that works) [05:22] trying this right alt + printscreen +k [05:22] nightshade, not likely with ubuntu package management [05:22] can someone help me? [05:22] oh, I'm actually used to fedora. [05:23] Hi I just turned on my system and my wireless internet is not working. I am running ath9k drivers, and it was working before, I have tried two different kernels and no luck, i was thinking that it was because of maybe me removing something important? I would appreciate help. WICD just sticks on "validating authentication" [05:23] brian1: For which one you want full screen video ? [05:23] I just like how ubuntu supports all my hardware. [05:23] firefox [05:23] bryan1: what do you mean by full screen video? [05:23] MoTec, thanks its: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 04f2:b073 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd [05:23] MoTec, just fyi xD [05:23] for example when i go on youtube full screen it goes choppy [05:23] it worked [05:23] MikeChelen, looking for the audio chip, the board is a GA-P35-DS3L [05:23] thanks helped me out [05:23] brian1, thats ur flash plugin [05:23] bryan1: Are you using compiz? [05:23] datz: who is the manufacturer? [05:24] no [05:24] Gibabyte [05:24] i need that? alright i will get it [05:24] gamerx: good deal.. lsusb did it, then [05:24] Apparently, I know more than I thought I did. woot! [05:24] brian1, no, you dont need compiz1 [05:24] brian1: check this link http://www.mouserunner.com/FF_Tips_Full_Screen.html [05:24] brian1: No No No! using compiz can that problem [05:24] what's the latest qhestion? [05:24] that's why i was asking [05:24] alright [05:24] Magnesium, I should install pulse or alsa? [05:24] thanks [05:24] alsa ;3 [05:25] NCIS-AGENT, you wish to remove all of xfce? [05:25] datz: I think either should work... [05:25] MikeChelen: Realtek ALC888 [05:25] it should say on there. Just (if you have acess to it) take down as many of the writings on the chips, and google them. You should find something, I guess. [05:25] bazhang, yea this was an xfce install, but now i use gnome [05:25] datz: but since there's a nice howto for pulse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio [05:25] you might try that first [05:25] nope i still have the problem [05:25] http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome NCIS-AGENT [05:26] full screen video [05:26] ok, thanks Magnesium [05:26] Hi I just turned on my system and my wireless internet is not working. I am running ath9k drivers, and it was working before, I have tried two different kernels and no luck, i was thinking that it was because of maybe me removing something important? I would appreciate help. WICD just sticks on "validating authentication" [05:26] anyone know a nice program that lets you take pictures using a webcam? [05:26] gamerx, cheese ? [05:26] gamerx: cheese [05:26] no problem datz [05:26] gamerx: camorama too. [05:26] the video becomes choppy when its full screened [05:26] brian1: what's your video card? [05:27] bazhang, FAJALOU: sudo aptitude install camera cheese ? [05:27] gamerx: camorama [05:27] lol, do i have to reinstall drivers? [05:27] gamerx, camorama iirc [05:27] turn off your computer, ***GROUND YOURSELF TO THE CASE*** and take out your card. Set it on the table, and get a notepad and pen, and look at all the chips. Write down the white writing on them, and your best rendition of the logo, and google as much of it as you can find. [05:27] since updating to karmic beta, i have no sound. "grep Codec /proc/asound/card0/codec*" returns "No such file or directory" [05:27] nightshade, that is hardly necessary [05:27] that's what I do. [05:27] bazhang, whats iirc, sorry for being a noob :0 [05:27] coffeej, #ubuntu+1 for karmic support [05:27] bazhang, nice one. [05:27] lol [05:28] nightshade: actually, the fcc id is the way to go [05:28] is google your computer id [05:28] (except, I use a laptop) but with desktops I do [05:28] nightshade, please dont suggest things like that here [05:28] ya lol [05:28] oh, I didn't think that mattered. Well, learn something every day. [05:28] brian1: well, I hope not. But if you've got an old card (like a radeon) that might be the problem [05:28] bazhang, FAJALOU im installing both now, thanks [05:28] sorry. [05:28] brian1: *old* radeon I mean [05:28] bazhang: thank you [05:28] nightshade, that was funny [05:28] nightshade: fcc id is unique for each card. and every card is labeled with one.. that will tell you, with one easy google, what it is. [05:28] no its not old [05:29] do i need to install drivers again? [05:29] NCIS-AGENT: what was? [05:29] brian1: What card is It??? [05:29] nightshade, i lold [05:29] nightshade, your recommendation [05:29] i just dual OS window to ubunto [05:29] gamerx, if I recall correctly [05:29] cool, but I really thought it was valid advice. (woot on being a successful commedian though!) [05:29] brian1: you probably don't have to reinstall drivers [05:30] bazhang, cheese is what i was after, thanks [05:30] Hi I just turned on my system and my wireless internet is not working.

I'm trying not to deviate, but it seems like the friendlyness is making me too cheerful [05:31] can anybody tell me how to get dvd playback in 9.10? [05:31] hi i want to build my ip6 network at home can someone advice plz ?? [05:31] I ran the libdvdread3.sh [05:31] discord, karmic support in #ubuntu+1 [05:31] nightshade: lol, too cheerful... [05:31] discord: I don't think that's possible with linux.

[05:32] so unless you're a 1337 h4xx0r, it's probably impossible.

[05:33] brian1: Ah, SGI means that your card is not using drivers...they're using the generic mesa drivers. [05:33] balsaq: lol on your nick. [05:33] brian1: So you might need to reinstall [05:33] my password to get into ubuntu [05:34] where do i get the drivers? [05:34] startx is giving me an error about how it can't find a compatible nvidia glx extension. [05:34] probably your password. Did you forget it? [05:34] since is ubuntu [05:34] the Q is silent...balsaaah [05:34] Balsaq, you forgot it? [05:34] But I'm not running an nVidia chipset, I'm running an Intel chipset. [05:34] brian1: What card do you have!!! [05:34] !password | Balsaq [05:34] Balsaq: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords [05:34] i know my password but want too change it [05:34] Hi I just turned on my system and my wireless internet is not working.

How can I assist you? [05:34] i'm having a problem with vsftpd, what is local_umask actully do, the man page doesnt explain a while lot for me, like is it the chmod setting for files i upload? [05:34] ubuntu_, hi [05:35] hello bazhang [05:35] If you forgot it, you'll probably need a program called jack the ripper. Go onto another computer, and type ssh (your computer) and then use john the ripper to get in. Then, type passwd and change it. [05:35] nightshade i did not forget it, i want to change my password that let open up my ubuntu OS when i turn on the computer [05:35] brian1: 'cause where you get the drivers depends on your type of card [05:35] essentially, you're hacking into your own computer, but it's not illegal if it's ***YOURS*** [05:35] Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 [05:35] oh [05:36] brian1: Hmmm...I've never have to set up Intel graphics before. [05:36] Balsaq: go to a shell and type passwd [05:36] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword Balsaq [05:36] brian1: Let me take a little look [05:36] didnt lose it [05:36] do i get the drivers the same way for windows? [05:36] Balsaq: gotta be a way in the GUI, too.. But I don't know it. I'm a command line kind of guy. [05:36] im unaware to write [05:36] Balsaq: at the startup screen hit escape, and pick the root terminal option [05:37] someone can read me? [05:37] Balsaq, its the same idea though [05:37] then, just log in, and go into a terminal, which should be in the applications menu, and once in, type "passwd" It should ask you for your current password, then what you want to change it to. Press enter both times, and it's done. [05:37] root terminal option WTH [05:37] brian1, get from hardware drivers system administration hardware drivers [05:37] Hi I just turned on my system and my wireless internet is not working.

I would appreciate help. WICD just sticks on "validating authentication" I am getting in the logs that wlan0 is not ready??? help please! [05:37] arschgamei, i read you [05:37] brian1: I can answer that...not really. They would be in a repository, so you would install through built in ubuntu tools [05:37] if i were to chown a folder to my username, would everything thats put into it afterwards be in my users ownsership? [05:38] Balsaq: read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword [05:38] bazhang that me be the easest way i dont want to do a root termial option [05:38] iarp, iirc yes [05:38] and that the direct prove to AP timed out...? [05:38] so what do i type? [05:38] brian1, you are on 9.04 ? [05:38] ok ill read the lost password stuff thanks all [05:38] ya [05:38] Balsaq: just as easy as going to a terminal and typing passwd [05:38] iarp, if you chown then put stuff into it it should be yours [05:38] Balsaq: wait you have not lost your password? [05:38] then follow the instructions I gave above brian1 [05:38] sure is terminal blows [05:39] ok [05:39] Balsaq: hehe, you're typing here.. is typing 5 characters in a terminal really taht hard? [05:39] OK. go to the terminal menu (probably on the top of your screen.) You see the menu when you click on it. Then go to accessories. Same thing, but it pops left-to-right. Now click "terminal." Type "passwd" [05:39] gamerx: since root owns it atm, would it give me shit if i changed it to mine..i'm thinking of doing this to /var/www because i can't upload or do anything to the folder without chmodding it to 777 and then going back to 755 [05:39] Balsaq: open terminal and type "passwd" then follow instructions [05:40] ok trying it ty [05:40] brian1: I gotta go...but there's other folks who can help you out. [05:40] not much to it, really :) [05:40] iarp, yes i did that to mine too, its fine [05:40] thank god... [05:40] darn it [05:40] iarp you could change the owner of /var/www to the group www-data and add yourself to the www-data group [05:40] gamerx: aight thx [05:40] wow.. google says there is no ubuntu gui for password change. [05:40] fail. tbh [05:40] not to brian, to balsaq [05:40] anyone know how to get a graphic driver? [05:40] but, maybe to brian too. [05:40] Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 [05:41] my videos become choppy when it goes full screen [05:41] I mean magnesium [05:41] workin on it [05:41] iarp, just do sudo chown [username] /var/www, also when i put files into it sometimes you have to modify permissions so that "others" is "read-only" [05:41] balsaq: it's not that hard. [05:41] iarp, not sure why this happens but if "others" isnt read only obviously people browsing your site will just see "dead" images [05:41] nightshade: huh? whats to me? [05:42] gamerx: Billiard's idea sounds better to me since i have 1 other user that'd need the access and is having the same problem as me [05:42] nothing [05:42] okay [05:42] gamerx: ya i found that out the hard way, kept wondering why the hell i could include() files in my php scripttill i noticed nobody could read [05:42] iarp, sorry i didnt see his post, but yes thats a good idea too [05:43] Hi I just turned on my system and my wireless internet is not working.

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [05:44] piers: well, I don't think I could teach you how to customize all that on the IRC, but you could probably find it somewhere in the gnome documentation (on the website I've never been to) [05:45] mezquitale, ok [05:45] brb....checking it [05:45] Is there bitorrent client that streams video on ubuntu? [05:45] arschgamei: Don't talk politics, religion, or dirty jokes (all of which you have encompassed) on the IRC [05:46] hmm thanks, ive tried changing the elements using GNOME colour chooser but wud be easier if i could just use a dif theme for the panel [05:46] hold on, toying with panel... [05:46] arschgamei, it's ok to talk politics, religion and dirty jokes, just not in here, this is ubuntu's support channel, if you have any questions about ubuntu feel free to ask away, thanks! [05:46] piers: please read http://www.gnome.org/ [05:47] brian1 thanks ive read a lot of that documentation and its aimed at quite a low level (altho i am a bit of a noob myself), doesnt seem to specify how you could use a different theme for the panel [05:47] Hi I just turned on my system and my wireless internet is not working.

Please and thank you. [05:48] ;) [05:48] :) [05:48] nightshade: that is the question... [05:48] thats an option but it doesnt change the colour of the menus when they drop down [05:49] oh, sorry. [05:49] piers: brb, toying with panel some more... [05:49] iarp, "cat /etc/group" lists all groups on a system [05:49] but you're right, i should definately incorporate a sword somewhere [05:49] ZykoticK9: ty [05:49] nightshade: help would be nice :) [05:49] OO calc can't play with a gnumeric file? OO opens the gnumeric file as a document, and I can't find an import option? [05:49] FAJALOU, is the wireless router youre connecting to in your control and possession? [05:50] mezquitale: yes [05:50] I was thinking about that, but I couldn't find any good pics. Get back to me if you can find some! ;) [05:50] !ot > nightshade [05:50] nightshade, please see my private message [05:50] FAJALOU, what is your wireless card (lspci | grep Wireless ) . and what kernel you are currently using? ( uname -r ) [05:50] sorry. [05:51] FAJALOU, what utility are you using to connect to your router? [05:51] hassanakevazir: current jaunty kernel (.25-15 generic) wireless card AR5008 driver: AR5416 cguoset, [05:51] hassanakevazir: *chipset [05:51] hassanakevazir, FAJALOU said it used to be working [05:51] mezquitale: wicd [05:51] mezquitale: it totally worked last week; the last time the laptop was booted... [05:52] mezquitale: i was working on some stuff, however, for backups, and I am wondering if aptitude removed something important: and I am looking back tthough in my kern.log and it has connected before... but with a different AP name? so maybe it is associating a wrong AP name with the router? [05:53] mezquitale: hassanakevazir: it is now using the correct AP address... [05:53] I LOVE TERMINAL [05:53] Balsaq, SO DO I !!!! [05:53] i own it now TY [05:54] mezquitale: hassanakevazir I just got a "privacy configuration mismatch and mixed-cell disabled- disassociate. [05:54] " [05:54] heck i may as well change my flippin password every week now... [05:54] FAJALOU, Not sure, you can try removing your router's security, see what happens? Donnu [05:55] hassanakevazir: others are connected; that would be not a good idea with others connected,, unfortunately [05:55] FAJALOU, sounds like it's a bug with your app but you can try connecting manually [05:56] mezquitale: what if i cleared my /etc/wicd/wireless-settings.conf ? [05:56] b/c it has configuration stuff, and if i remove it then maybe it will reset? [05:56] mezquitale: definitely a bug.. .somewhere :) [05:56] OH! [05:56] mezquitale: recently we have been getting outages, that wouldn't change MAC addresses would it though? [05:57] FAJALOU, that wouldnt change MAC addresses LoL [05:57] mezquitale: yah just realized that. [05:57] mezquitale: oh well just cleeared that anyways. [05:57] FAJALOU, if you do get outages then releasing the IP and then requesting an IP again would fix it [05:57] When I press the 'Home' key in gedit, the text cursor goes to the beginning of the line instead of the beginning of the code on the line. is tehre any way to fix this? [05:57] mezquitale: how so? [05:58] mezquitale: right now i am on the network;;; on a different computer... [05:58] FAJALOU, dont know, lets just say that I've been getting outages as well and I had to release ip and renew it, something about dns and a gateway [05:59] FAJALOU, dns and gateway, check the dns and gateway on both computers [05:59] well now i have one more big favor to ask, i want to replace my 400mgz dell with a 2.4mgz now and then put a g4 lapper here to chat while we do a ubun install on the 2.4 in case i get bunged up [06:00] mezquitale: huh changing the wireless-settings didn't do anything.... [06:00] i have the ubu disc and the 2.4 here [06:00] /msn NickServ identify janeway [06:00] mezquitale: what if i accidentally deleted wpa-supplicant? [06:00] hi therer [06:00] there [06:00] new into ubuntu [06:01] and i need help with ltsp [06:01] OO calc can't play with a gnumeric file? OO opens the gnumeric file as a document, and I can't find an import option? [06:01] FAJALOU, that would have done it as well, looks like you know more than I do, you learn more by making mistakes, that's what people say LoL [06:01] mezquitale: I THINK I DELETED WPA-SUPPLICANT [06:01] yawasare: better join #ltsp [06:01] ARGH! [06:01] who is in ther house thats familar with ubuntu ltsp server [06:01] i guess that means no [06:02] alkisg: are you familar with ti [06:02] would someone be so kind as to post their /var/run/wpa_supplicant on pastebin for me? please? [06:02] yawasare: yes [06:02] can i ask you a question [06:02] ? [06:02] Ok, so OO won't play with gnumeric files, will it play with abiword files? [06:02] please [06:03] yawasare: better join #ltsp [06:03] oh wait I am on a computer that has it on there. [06:03] nvm [06:04] affirmative [06:04] mezquitale: so how should I go about re-adding it? I am looking in /var/run and wpa)supplicant is definitely a folder, not a file? [06:05] Humm, bad news guys neither pluse nore alsa worked. :( === ThomasHC1 is now known as xTHOMASx [06:05] MikeChelen, Magnesium, no other thoughts? [06:06] mezquitale: so how should I go about re-adding it? I am looking in /var/run and wpa)supplicant is definitely a folder, not a file? [06:07] datz: did pulse work for regular audio? [06:07] This is how I installed alsa http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/08/how-to-upgrade-to-alsa-1020-on-ubuntu.html [06:07] MikeChelen, yes [06:08] I hope this problem gets fixed at some point for a release..I guess it would be the audio drivers that need work> [06:08] ? [06:09] FAJALOU, you are using a set up I am not familiar with, I suggest you try asking the same question at another time and maybe someone that knows the answer will help you [06:09] djfjksssssssssssgf [06:10] mezquitale: what exactly is the question?? lol [06:10] MikeChelen, this is a common problem, or one only for my chipset? [06:10] datz, that is the only reason I use ubuntustudio, audio is awesome in ubuntustudio [06:10] mezquitale, humm, never heard of it...oh well, can't abondon this setup.. too much time. :) [06:10] mezquitale: it is just refusing to connect? i just reinstalled wpasupplicant [06:10] I have to take a look at it [06:10] hey guys... do u know any package that will install my dell devices drivers? [06:10] FAJALOU, i usually use the utilities in ubuntu, if they dont work I file a bug report, network-manager works just fine for me and even better in karmic [06:11] mezquitale: lol i have never had good luck with nm [06:11] datz: there is likely some workaround, unsure what it might be though [06:11] hehe [06:11] me want [06:11] eventually [06:12] I dual boot to vista, so I need some incentive not to use it. :) [06:12] FAJALOU, try it in karmic, it's awesome [06:12] datz: so flash worked okay with pulseaudio? [06:12] j #xubuntu [06:12] MikeChelen, well I tried playing an MP3, that worked, when I tried to watch a youtube vid, no audio, so I tried alsa [06:12] hi everyone, I am trying to get my laptop, which was working, to connect to the internet, but I am getting an error that says privacy configuration mismatch and mixed-cell disabled - disassociate. Can anyone tell me what this means??? [06:13] how can i figure out the size of a folder and its contents through cli? [06:13] datz, if you have the resources(hard drive space) then I suggest you try ubuntustudio [06:13] SuspectZero: `du` [06:13] ty [06:13] mezquitale, thatn isn't an OS? [06:13] * datz researches [06:13] Ubuntu x86 (32bit) can support xeon quad core? will it see 4 processor? [06:13] datz: ah ok, so flash audio did not work at all with pulseaudio [06:13] john38, sees all 4 of q6600 cores [06:14] hello [06:14] mezquitale: there is still no folder in my /var/run/ that is wpa_supplicant... [06:14] datz, yes it is an Os, it's a flavor of ubuntu, you could try installing it on ubuntu using synaptic and see if it works [06:14] MikeChelen, well, I suspect if I had closed the media player, it would have worked === ryan_ is now known as ardiansyahmakass [06:15] mezquitale, interesting, it is a front end, like gone or KDE that I can just install over my prexisiting install? [06:15] FAJALOU, you have more experience than me, sorry, i'm quite sure someone has the answer you are seeking just not at this moment right now, I suggest you try logging in at another time [06:15] mezquitale, what ever program I start first is the one that works [06:15] datz: what about multithread, will it be supported for all of them? [06:15] hi everyone, I am trying to get my laptop, which was working, to connect to the internet, but I am getting an error that says privacy configuration mismatch and mixed-cell disabled - disassociate. Can anyone tell me what this means??? [06:15] datz, go to synaptic and see what it tells you, search for "ubuntustudio" [06:15] mezquitale: does ubuntu studio use pulseaudio or jack by default? [06:15] oops MikeChelen* [06:16] hassanakevazir: do you have any idea about what I am getting??? [06:16] mezquitale, ok will do thanks [06:16] john38, try the live cd [06:16] datz: its just hard because maybe pulseaudio was not working with flash at all [06:16] MikeChelen, ubuntustudio is just like ubuntu except it has a real time kernel, it can use both alsa and pulseaudio, the difference is it actually works in ubuntustudio [06:16] hence = ubuntustudio [06:16] MikeChelen, I really should have tried to use pulse seperatly..I did not [06:17] for flash* [06:17] It probably would have worked seperatly [06:17] * datz checks to see if alsa works with flash [06:17] datz: yeah check the same thing with alsa [06:18] hi, my pulseaudio server has somehow become completely screwed up [06:18] when i mark it for removal [06:18] MikeChelen, I didnt read your question correctly, sorry, by default I am not sure which one ubuntustudio uses but you can pick and choose, I use alsa and it works like a charm [06:19] now it tells me that it's going to remove ubuntu-desktop... big deal? [06:19] this is a meta package, right? [06:19] oh no, alsa doesn't seem to work at all with flash [06:19] I did notice this on install: " WARNING!!! The mixer channels for the ALSA driver are muted by default!!! [06:19] ahem alsa works just fine with flash in ubuntu*studio* I rest my case [06:19] Is that what might be the problem? [06:20] lol [06:20] * datz finally takes a look at ubuntu studio [06:20] help me please~ [06:21] datz, the only problem with ubuntu studio is that you have to have resources i.e. hard drive space, ubuntustudio does not have a "live" version [06:21] mezquitale: ah interesting, wonder how the config might differ from vanilla ubuntu [06:21] mgmuscari: yes that is a meta package [06:21] !ask | wolf23 [06:21] wolf23: 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. :-) [06:21] MikeChelen, rt kernel, ability to dedicate memory specifically for audio appz for starters [06:21] Ubuntu Studio Desktop Package <-- mezquitale [06:22] ? [06:22] why does dolphin always ask me for my samba share password multiple times when trying to access a samba....i definately am using the right password, and sometimes it even displays the folder contents if i hit cancel [06:22] datz, sounds like you have a winner\ [06:22] i bring a new router wireless,and someone stole from my connection,can anyone help me please to add a password for security plz! [06:22] !info ubuntustudio-desktop [06:22] mezquitale, I have more space and resources that I know what to do with. [06:22] ubuntustudio-desktop (source: ubuntustudio-meta): Ubuntu Studio Desktop Package. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.52 (jaunty), package size 8 kB, installed size 36 kB [06:22] 8-) [06:22] MikeChelen: i don't really understand why ubuntu-desktop has a dependency on pulseaudio, but whatever... [06:22] hi [06:22] mgmuscari, its safe to remove [06:22] wolf23: that is in the router config page, check your manual or visit the manufacturers website [06:22] that's what i thought [06:23] mgmuscari: thats how metapackages work, it depends on a bunch of other packages and thereby causes them all to be installed [06:24] yeah [06:24] MikeChelen, there is a cd coming with the router,but i dont know if it works with ubuntu? [06:24] i just didn't realize that pulseaudio is apparently considered park of ubuntu desktop [06:24] mezquitale, 123 GB free on this disk [06:24] thanks [06:24] Think that should be enough [06:24] wolf23, forger about the CD [06:25] how do I get the automatic folder sharing in Nautilus to work. I shared the folder, but dont see anything on the network. === DaZ_ is now known as DaZ [06:25] datz, ok go ahead and install ubuntu studio then, I have a 500 gb sata HD in my desktop with a 100gb usb hd as a backup [06:25] mezquitale, so how could i put a password for security plz? [06:25] wolf23: probably the cd is unneeded [06:26] wolf23, can you use the internet wireless with your router as it is right now? [06:26] mezquitale, nice... here 160GB drive just for ubuntu, also 1TB and 150GB 10K drive for vista [06:26] mezquitale, yes [06:26] hi, after installing ubuntu with wubi i get an "root file system not defined." error msg that wont let me do anything but hard reset [06:27] hey guys... do u know any package that will install my dell devices drivers? [06:27] datz, thanks for making me puke, I have about 40 gigs dedicated to xp, the rest is ubuntustudio and virtualbox [06:27] lsusb -v [06:27] ops [06:27] ltcabral: add the Dell partner repository to Synaptic [06:28] mezquitale, don't go bulimic on us now. [06:28] :) [06:28] wolf23: what is the brand and model for your router? [06:28] mezquitale, ok looks like it installed...not calling for a restart..? [06:28] things seem the same. :P [06:28] wolf23, ok first change the SSID on both your router on your laptop and then go to your router and disable SSID broadcast on your router and let me know if you are still able to connect [06:29] datz, you have to restart, I suppose [06:29] ok [06:29] does anyone know why dolphin always ask me for my samba share password multiple times when trying to access a samba folder that is on a windows pc????...i definately am using the right password, and sometimes it even displays the folder contents if i hit cancel [06:29] irssi in screen on diff pc, brb [06:29] MikeChelen, wireless router dir- 280 [06:29] dlink [06:30] hi, after installing ubuntu with wubi i get an "root file system not defined." error msg that wont let me do anything but hard reset [06:30] can I upgrade to 64Bit ubuntu? live? [06:30] wolf23: there is usually a web interface for configuration, you should call DLink [06:30] something like live upgrade [06:31] sixthz: It's probably a good idea to avoide Wubi, because people can get weird issues with it. Installing with real partitions isn't difficult, and better in the long run. [06:31] i can not download vlc media player. it shows............ Unable to lock the download directory. what can i do? [06:31] wrapster, from 32 bit? [06:31] yeah [06:31] mezquitale, in windows you can protect your router for anyone cannot stole from you ,but now in ubuntu peoples stole with their laptops from me :( [06:31] wrapster, no full reinstall required [06:32] I followed the instructions here, but still now samba shares to be found. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba#Server Configuration [06:32] wolf23: the desktop OS has *nothing* to do with router security [06:32] wolf23: call DLink [06:32] i can not download vlc media player. it shows............

[07:02] aperson, if you want specific mute buttons just go to the volume control button besides the mute button.. [07:02] i cant figure out what the problem is [07:03] antionella_: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ select the Linux option, then download the .DEB file [07:03] avan, so windows xp says it was corrupt then windows 7 refused to installed and now ubuntu wont, dosent that make you think it may be a hardware problem? [07:03] possibly [07:03] winterswift: where is that Linus option? [07:03] but its not my processor [07:03] Mehedi, you need to close any other installations you have open [07:03] its not the hard drive [07:03] saji, sweet, I just muted my pcm and unmuted it, and now my sound is messed up [07:03] its not the ram [07:03] its not the mobo [07:03] Mehedi, such as synmaptic, or anything liek that [07:03] everything in my computer is new [07:03] antionella: in the drop-down menu [07:03] avan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:04] ok [07:04] I have a question: Im having two computers. One with windows xp and internet and the other one with ubuntu. because its an dialup-connection theres no way to go on the internet with ubuntu. But is there a way to connect the two computers by a cable -> and make it so to go on the internet with both computers? [07:04] avan, how do you know this? [07:04] aperson, what is your sound not working now? [07:04] saji, I just get static [07:04] hi i am getting the following error: privacy configuration mismatch and mixed-cell disabled - disassociate can anyone help me please? i have an ath9k module and a chipset of ar5418. please help! [07:04] because everything is brand new [07:04] Rumo: if one mache has 2 ethernet cards, yes... [07:04] Rumo: yes an ethernet cable and enable internet connection sharing on the windows machine [07:04] saji, sudo service pulseaudio restart doesn't fix it either [07:04] and it was all working up until like 3 days ago === Berzerker- is now known as Berzerker [07:05] i really dont want to have to buy more new shit [07:05] avan, okay, but you can still get doa things :), anyway, what does the error in the linux install sa? [07:05] aperson, try changing the device from the dropdown.. [07:05] aperson: I think ubuntu uses invoke-rc.d, not service [07:05] mezquitale, that link doesn't specify a fix, correct? just identifies the problem? [07:05] lstarnes, for everything else it uses service [07:06] here, my girlfriend is bitching that she is hungry i have to go get food with her, ill be back in like 10-15 minutes [07:06] !language | avan [07:06] avan: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [07:06] avan, okay [07:06] i appologize [07:06] avan, and yes watch those fingers lol [07:06] Rumo: it depends on how the non-dialup computer is setup - you need to have 1 free ethernet port free -- so that takes 2 cards, OR 1 if you use usb port to connect to the internet [07:06] im used to talking in other irc chans [07:06] avan, its all good [07:06] :P [07:06] when i try to install vlc media player through command line it shows.....Unable to lock the download directory. what can i do?i am not doing any other installation and my synaptic package manager is also closed [07:06] Bluey: the win-comp has a USB-modem so do I need only one ethernet card and a cable? [07:06] avan, and maybe try prefixing wiht gamerx,? [07:06] :0 [07:07] well shes going to get ready to get food so i have a few minutes :P [07:07] avan, okay [07:07] restarting alsa doesn't fix it either [07:07] antionella: got that installed yet? [07:07] Rumo: are you try to share the windows machines connection or ubuntu? [07:07] aperson, tell me what you did now? i mean before getting the static.. [07:08] saji, nevermind, I'm an idiot [07:08] Rumo: if you connect to the internet with a usb connect, you only need one ethernet port... [07:08] saji, I must have not noticed turning the PCM all the way down [07:08] Ubuntu help pages overload? [07:08] saji, but I still can't seem to mute just the speakers [07:08] okay brb [07:08] thanks just a min [07:08] anyone know how to make os system faster tweak ram and power distribution and such [07:08] sure k [07:08] Bluey: do I need a special cable? I hear something of two kind of cables cross and nocross... [07:09] winterswift: what now? [07:09] Rumo, any cable should do they auto detect these days [07:09] Rumo: you shouldn't -- they are called crossover cables - it depends on the ethernet card... [07:09] aperson, that was great going... :) [07:09] antionella: run the .deb file [07:09] saji, actually, I'm not an idiot, muting/unmuting the pcm does cause static, but moving the slider a tad restores it [07:09] antionella: should work :/ [07:09] Rumo: crossover, but new devices are smart enough to use either cable [07:09] !ping | winterswift [07:09] winterswift, please see my private message [07:10] Rumo: yes most cards auto detect otherwise youd need a crossover cable - and they aren't that expensive [07:10] !ppa < Loafers [07:10] Sorry, I don't know anything about ppa < Loafers [07:10] !ppa > Loafers [07:10] Loafers, please see my private message [07:10] bluey, you do realize theres been at leat 5 responses to the question xD [07:10] Bluey: ok Bluey thank you very much [07:10] Bluey, im loling :0 [07:10] he only listens to bluey lol [07:10] gamerx: i should put the setup on pkill-9.com - it's easy using webmin [07:11] preference poll: vmware or virtualbox?

[07:14] the hardest thing to fix - was my scanner - that took 6 months - second hardest - the ups - that took 3 months [07:14] saji, I went through every single dropdown and option, I even tried the other pulseaudio volume control to no avail [07:14] I can't mute just my pc speakers for the life of me [07:14] gamerx: what's your site's url? [07:14] bluey, no registration :'( [07:15] bluey, www.gxhs.ws [07:15] aperson, well doesn't the speaker mute by itself, when you plugin the headphone? [07:15] winterswift:no my file system is full so i have to get rid of some files in order to do that [07:15] gamerx: very nice! [07:15] saji, no [07:15] bluey, ty :0, [07:16] bluey, its hoted on linux xD [07:16] winterswift: those files were the belonged to the previous owner, i think they're about this computer [07:16] bluey lol took me a while rofl [07:16] saji, in fact, I've never had an ubuntu desktop/laptop that I've been able to configure it to do that [07:16] gamerx: mine's hosted with liquenox - which uses linux [07:16] aperson, so that's the problem you're having.. [07:16] antionella: you can order free cd's of the new ubuntu version from canonical - i would recommend getting one [07:16] gamerx: ru really in samoa? [07:16] hey [07:16] aperson, In my laptop by default, it worked out, and normally it does... [07:17] my ftp has a .cx tld [07:17] saji, doesn't on my hp. I can't blame ubuntu, it's prolly some crappy audio drivers [07:17] bluey, where the f*** does it say that xD, im in australia [07:17] but still! [07:17] OpenBluntSurgery, hey mate /0 [07:17] the address http://production.gxhs.ws/ .ws is somoa [07:18] aperson, Which is your Ubuntu version?

[07:18] I have a problem where my PC will freeze up [07:19] I'm running ubuntu 9.04 64-bit [07:19] gamerx: how would people get to it other wise? unless they used the ip addy... [07:19] can u format and config a usb drive for faster loads [07:19] it usually happens with the flash player plugin running, but I experienced it once without it running [07:19] truthpusher000: yes - two things [07:19] bluey, get to where? [07:19] hello, it is possible to install ubuntu on a gpt disk? [07:20] truthpusher000: use ext2 file format, (non journaled), and noatime on the mount [07:20] winterswift: thank you very much for your assistance will u be in this chatroom tomorrow? [07:20] enduser000: what is gpt? [07:20] antionella: yes, do you plan to fix it eventually? [07:20] wat app to format [07:21] saji, 9.04 x64 [07:21] Bluey, I think he means the partition table layout [07:21] Bluey: gpt is a partition table [07:21] yes, i'm planning to do that [07:21] GPT versus MBR [07:21] enduser000: okay not heard that term - [07:21] does anyone know if I can use ubuntu and gpt? [07:21] last time i inserted a usb drive it crashed my bios [07:21] antionella: you can also download and burn a copy free if you have a CD burner [07:21] aperson, 64 bit Ubuntu.. Maybe that's why problems in the driver... [07:22] saji, I doubt it :) [07:22] antionella: but the easiest way would be to reformat, or at least clean the hard drive down to only ubuntu, then upgrade ubuntu using to 9.04/9.10 [07:23] hey im back gamerx [07:23] winterswift: oh ok [07:23] you still here [07:23] ? [07:23] avan yeah [07:23] so where were we? [07:23] antionella: did you buy a computer with ubuntu? [07:23] avan, whats the error? [07:23] saji, I think I give up on it for now. I'll just hit the power on my speakers, but thanks anyways [07:24] winterswift: no, i bought it online it still look new [07:24] antionella: do you have any idea what the cpu/ram specs are? [07:24] aperson, Why are you using 64 bit Ubuntu? any performance increase? [07:24] winterswift: nope [07:25] antionella: where did you get the ubuntu disc? just getting things straight here [07:25] saji, I used to encode dvds and yes, there is an increase [07:25] saji, also, I have four gigs of ram [07:25] winterswift: i got it with the computer [07:25] saji: There are nothing wrong with taking full advantages of your hardwares. [07:25] but it's not the 9.04 disc, it's the 8.04 [07:25] aperson, with 4 GB of RAM that's a good decision... [07:25] okay, so you got a used computer with the ubuntu disc? [07:25] i ve delete nick serv message is that a problem for me [07:25] yes [07:25] gamerx basically that a specific file (different files, but the error comes up multiple times) cannot be copied over from the disc [07:26] leaf-sheep, my point was not that.. Well aperson understood it.. With only high RAM capability its useful.... [07:26] antionella: okay, so definitely reformat the hard drive using the ubuntu installer since you have the disc, then i can tell you tomorrow how to upgrade it [07:26] avan, im not too sure, have you tried another optical drive? [07:26] saji, as I said, in media apps there is an increase [07:26] okay [07:26] the_spirit: No. It is not a problem. You do not have to be registered to use #ubuntu [07:26] saji: also you get to use your full bus speed [07:26] just send me a private message, ill leave my status as Away [07:26] gamerx yes [07:27] thx [07:27] winterswift: oh wait this is small it doesn't have the dvd thing to use the disc [07:27] aperson, that's right... [07:28] avan, hmm [07:28] antionella: what do you mean it cant use the disc? [07:28] it doesn [07:28] winterswift, i think the netbook dont have a dvd drive in it [07:29] winterswift, maybe xD [07:29] antionella: You have a USB stick? You can install Ubuntu via USB too. [07:29] winterswift: it doesn't include any dvd rom, the computer doesn't include that [07:29] gamerx: its a netbook :/? [07:29] wubi? [07:29] and for other channels do i have registered? [07:29] How can I inhibit the expansion to emoticons on a ChatZilla display screen? [07:29] winterswift, is it, thats what i could gather from the convo... [07:29] avan, im not too sure [07:29] my only pain for x64 has been flash, and now that we have x64 flash I haven't had an issue [07:29] dont wanna do that [07:29] the_spirit: Most of the channels do not require any registrations. [07:29] ok [07:30] winterswift: oh yes, it doesn't include the dvd rom [07:30] antionella: is this a desktop or a laptop? [07:30] !usb | antionella [07:30] antionella: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [07:30] datz: Yes what about it? [07:30] aperson, I have 2GB ram... Will it be useful for me to switch to the 64bit edition? [07:30] how cant you write so red [07:30] can [07:31] winterswift: what's the difference? [07:31] nvm, guess that's not what antionella needed [07:31] saji: what sort of desktop user are you? [07:31] the_spirit: testing this is red yes? [07:31] the_spirit: Because your nickname came up. Anybody that call you by your nickname will appear differently so you can see the messages are for you. [07:31] avan, since its all the OS's that have issues, maybe you need to take it back (the pc), or do some dedicated hardware tests [07:31] winterswift: it is a laptop sorry [07:31] ok i understood [07:31] winter, are you able to handle that question xD [07:31] saji: if you plan on upgrading to the latest ubuntu when that hits, I'd say try it. It *is* the future [07:31] the_spirit: yes most/all IRC clients do name highlights when messages have your name in them [07:32] gamerx how does one go about doing dedicated hardware tests? [07:32] winterswift: u still there? [07:32] ok [07:32] hey truthpusher000 needs help with reformatting a hard drive, not my strong point - can someone help? [07:32] antionella: mini-laptop or regular-size? [07:32] only way I know how to do it, is with the bootable install cd. [07:32] mini-laptop [07:32] yawn [07:32] avan, like test the components induvigily, maybe its a better idea to take it back to where you got it and tell them your issue [07:32] truthpusher000: system > administration > partition editor [07:32] antionella, its called a netbook.. [07:33] truthpusher000: delete the partition apply the changes, and there you go [07:33] truthpusher000: when on the Live CD [07:33] hi === Guest61895 is now known as ZeldaExpert [07:33] gamerx i built it on new-egg [07:33] ahh see I don't have then -- [07:33] and they dont exactly have a store near me [07:33] savas youre also on quassel [07:33] truthpusher000: when deleting an Ubuntu partition [07:33] I'm in a sort of predicament....

[07:41] NCIS-AGENT, install Ubuntu-tweak, then you can install terminator etc.. easily and manage all your repositories automatically and more easily.. [07:41] NCIS-AGENT: Give it a fair chance. See what you think of it first. [07:41] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak [07:41] i can connect internet using gnome ppp dial up tool through my edge modem in ubuntu 8.10. but ubuntu 9.04 does not show my network name/can not recognize my network.what can i do? [07:42] oops [07:42] NCIS-AGENT: terminators replaced gnome-terminal for me. >:) [07:42] yo [07:42] Dr_Willis, ok. [07:42] RobotCow: I'm thinking you have multiple addons that may be the root of the problem, not the Default theme. [07:42] ZeldaExpert: in reply to your pm, you need to re install Grub, or let the Windows CD fix the MBR, so that bit of Grub that is left gets removed [07:42] NCIS-AGENT: but i missed the original question/problem [07:42] yeah [07:42] Dr_Willis, only one gnome-term window [07:42] Gnome-terminal has transparency :P [07:42] hi [07:42] ZeldaExpert: re install Grub, I meant Ubuntu, or even another distro if you want [07:42] leaf-sheep, im pretty sure i have all the same exact addons in windoze, ugh, ill figure it out [07:42] RobotCow: How many addons?

[07:43] whats this mean? [07:43] NCIS-AGENT, gnome-terminal has tab feature... But not tiling like terminator... :) [07:43] Dr_Willis i don't seem to have either of those? [07:43] pistyman: What's uname -a say in terminal? [07:43] Tilting? [07:43] pistyman, for an installer disk or other [07:43] i have to download and build? [07:43] ok [07:43] Well thanks, and cya! [07:44] RobotCow: I have 11 or 12. Try disabling all themes and see what happen! If that works, then you know it's not the theme. Start enabling two or three addons at a one time. As to narrow down to the particular addon. [07:44] leaf-sheep, 9, but one is that ubuntu one i cant remove === nitrohax is now known as Guest84468 [07:44] how can i install flash again if he said tht it is on my computer (ut he had an error so not complete i guess) ??

[07:46] when i klick on a link sometimes it pops the konqueror but i want the firefox to pop up [07:46] Dr_Willis, i dont see an option in terminator for keeping only one instance? [07:46] NCIS-AGENT: never noticed that feature. never really wanted it.. it could be a command line option. could check the terminator forum also. [07:47] NCIS-AGENT: terminator is basically a python wrapper around gnome-terminal. So its very customizeable [07:47] i am installing a cad program [07:47] but it dont work [07:48] pistyman, which one [07:48] pistyman, wine? === vatts is now known as vatts[off] [07:49] !away > vatts[off] [07:49] vatts[off], please see my private message [07:49] * gamerx cant play dvd's [07:49] gamerx needs to install the restriced extras [07:50] !medibuntu > gamerx [07:50] gamerx, please see my private message [07:50] http://www.cycas.de/check.php?s=en&sys=lin [07:50] NCIS-AGENT, maybe this link can help you.

[08:02] Sander1: sudo is command to run things as root... 'dpkg' is a package manager command. [08:02] sudo = su system user = Do do it [08:02] it's weird that these things are so gui-fied and they're distributed as binaries. i was figuring on a 5 line shell script or some such [08:02] okej [08:03] phr: for what? puting an iso as a bootable flash drive? that can be a rahter complex task. depending on the disrto. [08:03] phr: ive seen some live cd's where youjust copy the cd iso files to flash.. and install syslinux. done.

[08:07] phr: all ive ever done with unetbootin is plug in flash drive.. run unetbootin.. point it to the proper iso file and let it run. [08:07] phr: takes about 4 min for unebootin to do its work and ya got a bootable flash drive. [08:07] quick question, not alsa specific - i installed alsa from the repos, and then grabbed a svn copy and installed that. even with apt-get remove alsa, it's still apparently finding the old version somewhere according to /proc/asound/version after a reboot. i remember there being some file somewhere that you could edit to tell the system to search a different path first when loading those sort of driver files, any idea which file that [08:07] phr: unetbootin is downloadabel in binary form for many disrtos and for windows [08:08] phr: no need touse gig.

[08:08] !dpkg | Sander1 [08:08] Sander1: dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.

[08:17] Hello I have visual effects set to none, but when I click on an item in a window list to minimize the window, an ugly black rectangle animation appears. Can I remove ugly animation?

[08:18] leaf-sheep: yes, of course in another partition, in case of configuration prolblem! [08:18] ok, my basic plan is burn fedora DVD, swap out hard drive, install fedora on new drive, put old drive in USB dock and restore user files from it.

Have you tried a power-off and restart? [08:44] I find that's what I have to do to my wife's machine. [08:44] Viking667: several times, like I said, I even installed other cards [08:45] apt-get install Gnomebaker -> cant find packages. ???? (Ubuntu 9.04) [08:45] lilzeus: so, what card is it? [08:45] lilzeus, if you are using networkmanager, I think its a known problem that it may just quit for no apparent reason [08:45] weidmanns heil [08:45] kbp, check your repos. I did that same thing and it worked just fine. [08:45] I replaced networkmanager with wicd on my 9.04 box [08:46] anon: thanks :) let me check it [08:46] Viking667: original was onboard card, extra I installed/tried was a linksys [08:46] phoenixandthor: so uninstall networkmanager? [08:46] lilzeus, are using using wireless (wlan) or a network cable (ethernet) [08:46] and none of them work? [08:46] Hey guys. Need a little help with installing MySQL Server from the ubuntu repos. "dpkg: error processing mysql-server (--configure):" [08:47] is there a way to make it so that the maximize/minimize/close buttons are larger than normal in ubuntu? [08:47] Viking667: correct, I cannot get internet/networking [08:47] some gtk setting like for the scrollbars? [08:47] phoenixandthor: wired [08:47] lilzeus: I'll leave you in the capable hands of phoenixandthor [08:47] lilzeus: did you try booting to a prior kernel? [08:47] ok so I ran fsck on my corrupted fs and now im getting a disk error before grub even loads, is there anything else I can try? [08:48] Okay, did you already verify whether or not your network card was detected? [08:48] mneptok: what prior kernel? [08:48] phoenixandthor: yes, they appear to be detected, and installed [08:48] lilzeus: the GRUB memu should offer you a choice of kernels [08:48] *menu [08:48] running xubuntu, and my window manager seems to have died. whatever wm xfce uses isn't running. [08:48] mneptok: unbuntu is the only system installed [08:48] what happens when you open a root terminal and then run ifconfig? [08:48] navap: IMO it's a little strange but the Zap feature is configured from the Gnome keyboard layout preferences, or a similar setting in KDE [08:48] lilzeus: that does not matter [08:49] I can't close apps and stuff, I can't resize windows... [08:49] lilzeus: reboot, and press to enter the GRUB menu when prompted [08:49] Is anyone else running windows 7 RC with ubuntu? [08:49] lilzeus: choose an earlier kernel [08:50] lucent: There are CLI methods of enabling it on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap [08:50] phoenixandthor: I see the network card's configuration, with an IP address and everything...however, my router does NOT see it [08:51] So I cleaned out my computer case tonight, put my PC back together and Windows wont load. Yet Ubuntu is on the same HDD. [08:51] zuckerbrot und peitsche [08:51] niall: #windows [08:51] niall: did you remember to put the bugs back into the computer? (joking) [08:51] iceroot: +# [08:51] mneptok: its a redidrect [08:51] Lucent: lol [08:51] phoenixandthor: I have the router pulled up here, it shows NO IP address for the other ubuntu box [08:51] nepomuk [08:52] ah crap [08:52] he quit [08:52] how can i get the default theme of firefox in ubuntu? [08:52] anyone got advice as to how to get Linux (any distro) to read my second hard drive? [08:53] robotcow: install wine and run firefox on wine [08:53] niall, man mount [08:53] niall: check 'sudo fdisk -l' see if fdisk sees it.. if so.. moun tit via fstab or command line [08:53] oldman: .... [08:53] niall: sure you just need to mount it? is it an internal drive? [08:53] RobotCow: ignore that [08:53] ffffffffffffffffffff that shouldnt be necessary [08:53] RobotCow: download the theme from mozilla.org [08:53] niall: the Windows boot process (unrelated to Ubuntu) defines a "boot.ini" system file on the NTFS filesystem root (or maybe FAT32 if you're living in a cave) that refers to a specific IDE channel [08:53] oldman: please stop prattling and giving bad advice [08:53] mneptok: i am getting mad, ff is running faster on wine but why? [08:53] Billiard, it is an internal drive [08:53] niall: it's very sensitive and I can only offer that someone who actually supports Windows would know what to do from there on [08:54] oldman: becasue the windows-version is using another render-engine [08:54] Lucent, I like both Windows and Linux, they're both great at different things, no need to flame. [08:54] iceroot strange [08:54] some girls is online now? [08:54] oldman: do you have all the same extensions and add-ons in both versions [08:54] mneptok: i have no add-ons [08:54] mneptok: should I choose a safemode or the other regular one? [08:54] !ot | tc2[sleep] [08:55] tc2[sleep]: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks!

I'm assuming no because we're downloading binaries all times. [08:55] but ubuntu is the great channel of the mirc [08:55] lilzeus: that's not enough time to boot and get a DHCP lease [08:55] leaf-sheep: you don't, no. [08:56] i think the code generated with GCC on win32 is faster compared to GCC to nix, maybe compiler settilgs i dunno [08:56] leaf-sheep: you dont need the source-repo [08:56] tc2[sleep]: what does your choice of irc client have to do with the channel? [08:56] oldman: as i said, firefox is using another render-engine on windows [08:56] Viking667, iceroot: Thanks for clearing that one up! [08:56] Boohbah IUHAU yeah, sorry, I hav good intentions [08:56] mneptok: oddly, every single 192.168.1.xxx address I put into the browser displays Apache's default "It works!" webpage [08:56] either way, it wasn't my kid [08:56] oldman: if you dont trust me, have a look at google and heise [08:56] iceroot: yeah what is heise?

[09:22] ... and is Linux-based already [09:22] Ali_nz: why you nead kasperksy ? [09:22] there's even a clamav-win [09:22] Viking667: would it work on NTFS drives?

[09:23] Lint01: there's a reason it asks for your password mate [09:23] I'm trying to follow several howtos but none of them work [09:23] lucent: give up? [09:23] ich, DU ya :P [09:23] Lint01: w/o the security, any program can write to your block devices [09:24] there's no reason to ask me for password for mounting device [09:24] there is.

[09:25] hi... [09:25] lucent: I can ping myself [09:25] what i am getting at is this. sometimes friends bring round computers (all windows machines) and complain running slow/not booting etc. standard tests seem to be a surface test, test partition tables, and check for viruses, and mybe first of all, run ddrescue to image the drive. what would be great sould be to que all these tests and walk away. I can do everything fromwithin linux at the moment bar the virus scan [09:25] how exactly being able to mount device gives you write access to it? [09:25] anybody has a good link for it ? [09:25] Lint01: some devices (like USB remmovable storage) should have work-arounds in place to authenticate and mount the partitions desired [09:25] lol [09:25] ich_, ya, du!!! stop :P [09:25] laggers [09:25] :p [09:25] Lint01: because it just does. === ich is now known as teflon [09:26] The ability to mount means you have the ability to write. End of, unless you've got other ACL-stuff added, i.e. SELINUX, etc [09:26] Lint01: i.e. if you get a message asking you to authenticate when you insert a USB flash drive, that may be a bug because there should be a system in place to allow that [09:26] I want to mount my local disk partition [09:26] why my pc win* 192.168.1.11 can't ping with my box ubuntu 192.168.1.3 ? [09:26] If his user is in the group that's allowed to mount, that may be allowable. [09:26] Lint01: local hard disk partition should ask you to authenticate [09:27] But then only root can add to that list of members of that group [09:27] Lint01: that's a policy setting, and I don't think we're there yet in Ubuntu-land to set a policy to allow you to mount that without an active authentication [09:27] lucent: in fact, every address which starts with 192.168.1.xxx returns a ping [09:27] lilzeus: that sounds really odd [09:27] * Viking667 blinks [09:27] lucent: no kidding! [09:28] so will any of these linux antivirus packages scan antfs drivs? [09:28] Lint01: you can add an entry in your fstab so your partition is automatically mounted on boot [09:28] !ops [09:28] Help! Channel emergency!

See also !Kopete [09:28] Ali_nz: so, what you want is: a scanner that'll scan a ntfs drive? [09:28] Viking667: yes [09:28] If you can _mount_ the ntfs filesystem from the drive, then clamav can scan the filesystem [09:29] ... but you'll only be able to scan as root... which is as it should be. [09:29] so when devices are mounted on boot, they don't need to have root password? why do they need it after? [09:29] lilzeus: sounds complicated, no incentive here to help out sorry [09:29] Lint01: they're moutde by the root user, by default. [09:29] Lint01: because the boot-process is running as root [09:29] Viking667: clamnav work good? work from cli? [09:29] it works from cli, yes. [09:29] well that sucks [09:29] lilzeus: hm? whatsucks? [09:30] Viking667: my problem is complicated and I can't get help [09:30] Viking667: is it reliable? [09:30] :( [09:30] I see we're stuck in '70 here. hell [09:31] this is *nix after all [09:31] 1970's forever? [09:31] lol. [09:31] Ali_nz: reasonably. [09:31] Put it this way, I don't think it's any more unreliable than most other offerings out there maintained by the community [09:31] eventually the PolicyKit should get a round of documented procedures for configuring things like mounting local disk partitions [09:32] haha - ok [09:32] 'til then we're kind of stuck with secure by default [09:32] Viking667: and is there a linux equivelant o Malware Antibytes? [09:32] lucent: probably, yes. Though I haven't started dealing with PolicyKit yet. [09:32] Ali_nz: sounds fun but [09:32] Ali_nz: I've never heard of that, so I can't comment. [09:32] ugh, so much for ubuntu [09:32] i dont think theres dollars for development for us [09:32] Viking667: it's like watching all of what you thought you knew about *nix swirl around in a toilet, whoosh [09:32] I tried, I really did [09:33] lucent: he he he [09:33] Viking667: its more targeted at, well, malware asopposed to virus [09:34] are there more reliable distros of linux? [09:34] not quite sure what the diff is but it picks up stuff that antivi doesnt [09:34] lilzeus: heh. Depends. [09:34] Most of them depend upon how you set them up. [09:34] lilzeus: if we are in #ubuntu is because we this ubuntu is the best ;) (or maybe I think it) [09:35] lilzeus: distro of linux doesn't do much good if your network is bologna :) [09:35] well, my 'network' is not the problem...I am here after all :) [09:36] for diagnosing problems my favorite tools now are an Ubuntu LiveCD and a System Rescue CD boot (sysresccd.org) [09:36] SysResCD mostly because it's not Ubuntu and I can cross-examine problems that would possibly be from the sauce patches into the Ubuntu Linux kernel === john is now known as Guest29209 [09:40] is there some kind of WordPad in Ubuntu? [09:40] lucent: I have an OHNOESPROBLEM kit. [09:41] Lint01: gedit or kate [09:41] Lint01: 'gedit' but it's kind of ... sluggish? [09:41] lucent: Ubuntu discs, procmon (for Windows), etherkiller (sentimental value) [09:41] I restarted and I am at the prompt with networking...any ideas? [09:41] abiword is a nice WYSISYG word processor [09:41] lilzeus: Ideas for what? [09:41] lucent: leafpad [09:41] ah ha! yeah leafpad is neato [09:42] Lint01: there are a few nice-ish editors. I use vim, but that takes some getting used to. [09:42] I have ubuntu server edition cd.Does server edition have desktop environment? [09:42] no, but that doesn't stop you from adding one. [09:42] pqrstuv: by default no [09:42] fahadsadah: networking stopped working suddenly, nic works fine, but for some odd reason when I ping every address starting with 192.168.1.xxx I get a return [09:42] pqrstuv: no, it hasn't got x installed by default [09:42] kate is for KDE and gedit, leaf etc are Notepads [09:42] lilzeus: tracepath 4.2.2.2 [09:42] paste to pastebin [09:42] pqrstuv: no but you could put a desktop afterwards [09:43] pqrstuv: problem is, when you grab server edition, you normally know what you're doing and don't NEED a desktop. [09:43] lucent: Isn't it traceroute? [09:43] I need something that works with odf and allows tables and formatting [09:43] traceroute [09:43] fahadsadah: traceroute historically yeah [09:43] I use mtr too. [09:43] so which? [09:43] pqrstuv: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop [09:43] tracepath or traceroute? [09:43] And in future, don't get server edition. [09:43] lilzeus: Either. [09:43] either [09:43] I'm into tracepath for the v6 variant tracepath6 [09:43] I wasn't even aware of tracepath until now. [09:44] pqrstuv: just like Viking667 said still it isn't that different from desktop if you know how to go about in command line [09:44] lucent: send failed [09:44] pqrstuv: I recommend you install desktop edition, and then install server's packets manually if you need it [09:44] * Viking667 was insane. [09:44] vim does WYSIWIG formatting? [09:45] BlouBlou: he/she can do that just by using tasksel [09:45] Lint01: no. [09:45] Lint01: the lighest wordpad-like thing you'll find is probably abiword. [09:45] pqrstuv: use sudo tasksel and choose ubuntu desktop if server isn't your thing [09:45] But if you're going to use that, you may as well use OO.o Writer. [09:45] I installed normal Ubuntu, then grabbed UbuntuStudio DVD, added it as a media, then pulled in all the packages I wanted from it.... muahahahahaha [09:45] Lint01: abiword is pretty close yeah [09:45] For 99% of my needs abiword works. [09:46] lightest? it's 30 MB, like M$ Word [09:46] !info abiword [09:46] abiword (source: abiword): efficient, featureful word processor with collaboration. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.6-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 2899 kB, installed size 7808 kB [09:46] Lint01: by the way, do you need formatted text, or just plain text? [09:46] even in this mode, every address starting with 192.168.1.xxx returns a ping [09:46] What's the benifit for not having any desktop environment in server edition? [09:46] * lucent hands Lint01 aloe vera [09:46] here, you just got burned. [09:46] Lint01: Why bother with half-way editors? WordPad has tons and tons of limitations. It's like a boiled-down Word. [09:46] pqrstuv: more space for your ftp server :) [09:46] Purpose [09:47] Lint01: use vim [09:47] I think it was recovery mode? [09:47] of course I do need formatted text and maybe tables [09:47] oh. [09:47] If you insist on rich formatting, use a Word Processor (i.e. OO.o Writer, Abiword). If you just want *text*, use a text editor (like gedit, vim, emacs, etc.) [09:47] Then OO.o Writer [09:47] and I chose the option with networking [09:47] lilzeus: your network is fubar [09:47] lilzeus: I mentioned this already [09:47] lilzeus: the cause is not easy to figure out [09:47] lucent: what do you mean 'network'? [09:48] after all, I am here, on a different ubuntu install, on a different machine, on the same network [09:49] pqrstuv: most say you are saving resources which may be true [09:49] lilzeus: I suggest what I said already, boot a sysresccd.org environment live from CD and try that to rule out any Ubuntu specific kernel problem [09:49] well, I have the ubuntu CD [09:49] Dr_Willis, 12 to install|upgrade, 0 to remove; 23.3 MB will be used <- is it 7808 kb? stop lying please [09:50] Lint01: heh. [09:50] lilzeus: did you uninstall any extra components such as ubuntu-base still I don't get what is the actual problem with the network other than it is not working [09:50] Let me guess, 7.8Mb to download, but 20Mb when unpacked? [09:50] Soundsa bout right, Viking667. [09:50] lilzeus: it not working, that is not helpful. You will need to find out when it works, and on the SAME hardware, then we can rule out the problems [09:51] Anyone know if I can chroot into a directory while logged in? I am building a mini cluster here. taking directions from microwulf directions, but it tell me "chroot: cannot change root directory to /bin/bash: Not a directory". I am attempting to Get a Kernel and initrd Into Place for PXE. Suggestions? [09:51] Lint01: You're not counting in dependencies. [09:51] o0splitpaw0o: ah, the syntax is chroot directory shell-command [09:51] I think [09:51] o0splitpaw0o: uh,..... [09:51] 1 [09:51] yeah [09:52] o0splitpaw0o: chroot /mnt/blahlinux /bin/bash [09:52] something like that - are you doin' it wrong? [09:52] lucent, right, that's what I am attempting [09:53] o0splitpaw0o: and "/bin/bash" in that example would be in /mnt/blahlinux/bin/bash [09:53] not everybody understands chroot [09:53] hey. how can i check from the image file of ubuntu 9.04 that is it 64 or 32 bit version. i forgot which one i downloaded. :P [09:53] kelohippi: md5sums maybe? [09:53] kelohippi: you could check the md5, yes [09:54] lucent, ah ok. let's see here.. [09:54] lucent, example like this then eh?: sudo chroot /nodes/nfs/node1/bin/bash [09:55] hm yeah so sudo chroot /nodes/nfs/node1 /bin/bash [09:55] there must be a whole working system there of libraries and programs to support the new root environment [09:56] can anyone help me with kismet set-up? [09:56] gamerx: sure [09:56] lucent, ah well that is the issue then. I am going to go over these notes again. I don't see it mentioning to copy anything over or profiles [09:56] well, here I am [09:56] Hi everyone! I'm trying to install apache2 from synaptics. it's installed by i experience the following issue: it can't load the shared library libmysqlclient_r.so.15 (no such file) [09:56] I am using the Ubuntu CD [09:57] hmm. im running windows and dont have md5sums installed. any other way? [09:57] everything works [09:57] Billiard, i tried to install it in synaptic but it had on startup [09:57] !md5 [09:57] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [09:57] lucent: you still here? [09:57] excuse me, where could i get hardware support from? [09:57] gamerx: normal Ubuntu install (Gnome kinda stuff) you'll need to do /etc/init.d/network-manager stop; service avahi-daemon stop; killall wpa_supplicant [09:57] which noisy away messages! [09:57] did i do anything?! [09:57] I mean I have problems whith my usbs [09:57] that's for karmic which is due out in a few days [09:58] gamerx: other distros have different ways of doing what I just said [09:58] Billiard, so i uninstalled it from synaptic and dled the one from their sitte [09:58] anyone else spent all day on the computer doing nothing? [09:58] lucent, why would i do that? [09:58] gamerx: you need to setup a source [09:58] alex87.... right here!!!=D [09:58] aight. thanks [09:58] so, if I am able to connect to the internet, and everything works fine when using the Ubuntu LiveCD, what does that mean about my install? [09:58] Hi everyone! I'm trying to install apache2 from synaptics. it's installed by i experience the following issue: it can't load the shared library libmysqlclient_r.so.15 (no such file) [09:58] somebody tell me what did i do when i shutted down xchat on my laptop [09:59] gamerx: kismet wants some pretty specific control over the wifi interface and there's three things using the interface already preventing this [09:59] Billiard, lucent i have the install files on my desktop and a term open to them i have run ./configure and it gives me this: [09:59] dynamite, hehe, bloody addiction [09:59] wpa_supplicant, network manager, and usually avahi-daemon [09:59] hey got an issue my network traffic keeps showing up in my dmesg making it hard to see whats goin on with the sytem at other times is there any way to stop the packet information from being shown [09:59] leaf-sheep: what the hax did i do. [09:59] vatts: triggered an 'away' script proberly.. which is normally just a annoyance [09:59] lucent, this will only drop my wireless not wired? [09:59] Dr_Willis: can i get output? [09:59] vatts: no big deal. just explore your client and disable 'awway' message [09:59] it will drop everything gamerx [10:00] I see no good way to just drop the wireless [10:00] it is not client, since it's bnc and it should do this NEVER [10:00] >_< [10:00] lucent, well then its not a good idea to do that when im on irc [10:00] :p [10:00] wish there was a kinder gentler way :P [10:00] vatts: perhaps its a BNC featrue then [10:00] :< [10:01] lucent: I have restarted using the LiveCD and it works, what should I do now? [10:01] gamerx: kismet should be in the repo [10:01] vatts: bnc sees you are not conneted to it.. so IT says to us you are 'away' [10:01] lilzeus2: which livecd? [10:01] Dr_Willis: thing is [10:01] lucent: Ubuntu [10:01] i logged on bnc here, went upstairs, logged on laptop, chatted, dislogged and came downstairs. [10:01] i was connected here all the time [10:01] and bnc should do this oNLY when last client goes *poof* [10:01] so sorry for epic failz [10:01] lilzeus2: maybe uh, 'ifconfig -a' and write down the interface names and the mac addresses for each interface name [10:02] lucent, it is but it gives me an error when i run "kismet" form term [10:02] vatts: i dont use bnc. No idea. check their docs.. or you perhaps was using 2 differnt nics. [10:02] *d*d*d*d* cold... [10:02] * patb hey got an issue my network traffic keeps showing up in my dmesg making it hard to see whats goin on with the sytem at other times is there any way to stop the packet information from being shown [10:02] Dr_Willis: niet ^^ [10:02] gamerx: did you setup a source [10:02] gamerx: as it should... [10:02] vatts: i perfer 'znc' :) [10:02] patb: you can change your log level [10:02] <vatts> so ubuntu 9.10 is now STABLE OUT or its still beta? < Dr_Willis: it is znc :D [10:02] patb: sounds weird though, are you playing with firewalling?

What format should I use in gparted? XFS, JFS or ReiserFS ?

[10:03] vatts: thanks :D [10:03] it happened when i installed a wpa supplicant [10:03] ruby_on_tails: i hate RoR :D [10:03] gamerx: you need to change the kismet config and setup a source with your wireless card type and such [10:03] Paulogram: none of those.. leave it unallocaated.. or vfat/ntfs for windows. [10:03] patb: from console, I mean a virtual console like without X11, it's SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen) and then one of your number keys [10:03] vatts: I am neutral, I just do PHP [10:03] :O [10:03] just a nick :P [10:03] * vatts patb: I think 8 is really verbose and '1' is less verbose [10:04] it's cold here [10:04] Billiard, can you tell me how to do that, i installed it thru the repo again [10:04] 15˚ room temperature [10:04] and outside 2 [10:04] :S [10:04] * vatts freezes [10:04] thanks [10:04] vatts: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

How can I make an iso file of the vista install and use it? [10:06] Billiard, i dont know can you give me the appropriate dmesg command [10:06] lucent: ok, I wrote them down, now what? lol [10:06] I have installed apache2 from synaptic. it's installed correctly, but i experience the following issue: it can't load the shared library libmysqlclient_r.so.15 (no such file) [10:06] vatts: #testDummy [10:06] Paulogram: then leave it unallocated and let windoss format it. - windows cant install to ext/xfs/whatever.. it has to format it to ntfs or fat. [10:06] I need a administrator listed room.. [10:06] isntead of using a virtual HD, you can assign it to a real HD? [10:06] lilzeus2: one more thing to do is poke your iptables and save the output or just make a note [10:06] and use another one for your install of ubuntu i guess [10:06] lilzeus2: iptables -L [10:07] lucent: Operation not permitted [10:07] I need an op\ [10:08] gamerx: try lspci [10:08] Xcell: try #ubuntu-ops [10:08] lilzeus2: ahem, with sudo [10:08] anybody please?

[10:15] Billiard, ohh damn need to open it with sudo :0 [10:15] ask! will compiz in ubuntu 9.10 support vga sis or s3 chipset? [10:15] I have installed apache2 from synaptic. it's installed correctly, but i experience the following issue: it can't load the shared library libmysqlclient_r.so.15 (no such file) [10:16] sifo: most likely not without a miracle [10:16] pompato: package you're looking for would have "mysql" and "mod" in the name [10:16] probably [10:16] sifo: theese card are not meant to do anything compizlike [10:16] lucent: so what should I do? [10:17] rsk :thanks [10:17] gamerx: then run sudo kismet_server, then kismet_client, if no errors [10:17] Hello [10:17] pompato: there's some code in apache directives to look for libmysql on the system and bail out if it's not found [10:17] everyone [10:17] Billiard, okay hang on [10:17] lucent: only difference is in that pan0 device, the HWaddr do not match, iptables -L was the same [10:17] pompato: presumably you just have to get mysql set up correctly - is it? [10:18] lilzeus: the heck is pan0 anyways, now i'm curious [10:18] lucent: maybe, but I had already installed libmysql [10:18] wait [10:18] I retry [10:18] lucent: it says its an ethernet [10:18] err, let me see what I can copy [10:18] I just checked my services and apparently both gdm and kdm is on .... since I use gnome it should be no problem to just turn of kdm in the services list right? [10:19] lilzeus: okay pan0 is probably some bluetooth like technology [10:19] aks! is there any ubuntu variant that include the nvidia/ati driver? [10:19] lucent: Linkencap:Ethernet is what it says [10:19] hi [10:20] how can i move /opt to another partition ? [10:20] lucent: this machine is older than bluetooth...lol [10:20] naser67: you shouldn't do it [10:20] sifo: every version of ubuntu has had drivers for nvidia and ati by default [10:20] lilzeus: was it always broken? did you do something to set this off? [10:20] BlouBlou: how come? [10:20] lucent: I restarted my machine [10:20] ask! how do i mount C: on startup? [10:21] lilzeus: could have been a bad software update [10:21] hello [10:21] lucent: the last thing I installed was samba stuff [10:21] hi [10:21] BlouBlou: why? [10:21] naser67: well, opt is a part of ubuntu file-system, if you move it from ubuntu partition, ubuntu surelly will have several problems [10:21] lorenz: you can add an entry to your fstab to mount your windows parition on startup [10:22] BlouBlou: I don't have an /opt :P [10:22] Billiard: im a noob ... [10:22] lucent: is there a way to view all the latest things I have installed by date installed? [10:22] lilzeus: thinking... [10:22] BlouBlou: but , i extract xampp in /opt and when i have to reinstall ubuntu , all of my data is lost [10:22] lilzeus: let me guess... on a Ubuntu-based system? [10:22] BlouBlou: sorry for my english [10:22] Viking667: yes, of course [10:22] naser67: no problem for english [10:22] lilzeus: my apt kungfu is not that good === phnom_ is now known as phnom [10:23] /var/log/apt/ ? [10:23] pretty decent question though, any ideas about sorting installed packages by date installed? [10:23] lucent: mine is nonexistent [10:23] (Just guessing) [10:23] lilzeus: hm. Then that's a wee bit of a problem. Check dates on: ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list [10:23] naser67: ok, if you haven't got any data, you can remove it [10:23] erg... wiggly compiz window drag not fun when drunk [10:23] sort THAT by date... [10:23] naser67: or move [10:23] lucent: QOTD. [10:24] it's horrible! [10:24] BlouBlou: how can i move ? [10:24] Viking667: brb to try that [10:24] naser67: <> (without <>) in a terminal, then move normally [10:25] lilzeus: most likely culprit I think could be a kernel driver [10:25] running nautilus as root.. can cause issues... close it out as soon as you are done doing your rooty tasks. :) [10:25] lilzeus: have any previous kernels you could boot? [10:25] guys is there really no one who can help me with my question? [10:25] lilzeus: did you keep them around? [10:25] is it possible to make an .iso image from my current vista so can use it as KVM Virtual Machine in ubuntu? [10:25] BlouBlou: ok , let me ask another question ? [10:25] Viking667: that list was huge, and unusable [10:25] naser67: I'd mount the other partition to /mnt/tmp, then mv everything from /opt/ to /mnt/tmp, unmount /mnt/tmp and then finally mount it to /opt. [10:26] lucent: no idea, and no idea [10:26] xukun: I would say NO. for various reasons [10:26] naser67: sure, ask it [10:26] xukun: you could make a .iso yes..but using it in a VM will proberly have issues [10:26] lilzeus: you want to sort by date. There's a parameter for ls to sort by date. [10:26] BlouBlou: how can i backup my ubuntu? [10:26] xukun: we're kind of hanging out for Ubuntu [10:26] lucent: when I get into grub, I see 2 normal ubuntu installations, both have some safe mode or whatever, and then something else [10:26] !backup | naser67 [10:26] naser67: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [10:26] Is there anyway to "map" domain name to internal LAN? Let says when I enter www.youtube.com, instead showing up www.youtube.com, it shows up a page on 192.168.0.2 (which is the server) [10:26] lilzeus: your question was: what are the latest packages I've installed... right? [10:27] lilzeus: oh, not a whole list? [10:27] xukun: No iso image, but of xourse you can make a copy using dd or dd_rescue (which I'd recommend) [10:27] ubottu: tnx guy [10:27] Sorry, I don't know anything about tnx guy [10:27] naser67: ubottu is a bot === ich is now known as teflon [10:27] ubottu: ubottu [10:27] Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [10:27] Dr_Willis, thanks [10:27] normal -18, safemode -18, normal -11, safemode -11, normal -03, safemode -03 [10:27] i.e. [10:27] lucent: well, yes, a list, its like this: ubuntu, ubuntu safe mode, ubuntu, ubuntu safe mode, then something else [10:27] oh cool [10:28] pick one of the older earlier normal mode ones [10:28] xukun: windows wont like being changed from one 'machine' to another.. so it will trigger the MS-ANti-piracy-restrict-your-rights stuff [10:28] BlouBlou: oh, i made a boo-boo :D [10:28] lilzeus: "Something else" might be memtest86, a memory check tool? [10:28] xukun: thats one big issue. [10:28] how do I know which ones are 'earlier'? [10:28] grawity: yeah, that sounds right [10:28] naser67: you're welcome :) === chaky_ is now known as chaky [10:28] hi there.. h.a.n.d. [10:28] how many SHOULD there be? lol [10:28] vlt, would that work? If I make a copy of my current vista install and use it as a virtual macine? [10:29] lilzeus: "Earlier" ones simply have smaller version numbers. [10:29] Dr_Willis, I see [10:29] grawity: ok, will give it a shot [10:29] lilzeus: well I cleaned mine up so I only have the kernel I'm running [10:29] but you might have a few different versions there [10:29] xukun: your problem is: the virtual machine has different hardware to your real machine. Your Vista will go nuts [10:29] hey guys ... my computers making this really strange sound its definately the hdd ... how do i scan for errors or bad sectors? [10:30] lilzeus: if it won't boot, no harm done just reboot and try a different one [10:30] Is it possible for me to ssh/access based on the machine name on local network? I want to avoid IP addresses. [10:30] leaf-sheep: Three ways. [10:30] vegombrei: bad sound = should not leave it powered on [10:30] leaf-sheep: 1) Ubuntu comes with Avahi installed, so try using "machinename.local" [10:30] Viking667, so that is no go [10:30] pop that bad boy into the freezer and get ready to extract the data to a larger drive heh [10:31] leaf-sheep: 2) If you install samba (for Windows file sharing), you'll also get Windows' name resolution (so "machinename" will work) [10:31] disclaimer that my advice might actually cause more harm than it helps [10:31] BlouBlou: http://brasscannon.com/diary/movepart.html [10:31] leaf-sheep: And 3) /etc/hosts [10:31] lucent: oh .. but is there a utility that scans the drive? [10:31] Well, there was ONE way of doing it I heardof for XP... dunno how it works for Vista though... [10:31] Creating a hardware profile under Windows... [10:31] vegombrei: loosely speaking, no [10:31] BlouBlou: chek this , what's c0t0d0s6 ? [10:31] xukun: You can run that cloned windows ... but windows will proably refuse to work. [10:31] Viking667: Hardware profiles have been removed in Vista. [10:32] But don't actually activate it until you're on your other OS...and other virtual machine's environment. [10:32] grawity: oh, crap. [10:32] grawity: Pass on #3 because I'd have to set them up manually. I'm looking into #1 + #2. [10:32] leaf-sheep: Any Windows boxen in the network? [10:32] vegombrei: I've had Seagate brand drives go bad, and I got a vendor utility from Seagate and ran that, and it scanned the drive for errors [10:32] hi all, i had a problem with resolution on my pc and now i haven't in the avaible options the resolution that i had when i installe dubuntu. How to restore those settings? [10:32] naser67: I don't know [10:32] naser67: sounds like logical partition on first cdrom, on first controller. [10:32] vegombrei: if the hardware is going bad, not much can be done about it [10:32] vlt, I see thanks [10:32] grawity: There are. I don't know if they're set up for sharing though. [10:33] leaf-sheep: 4) Run a DNS server that resolves names to IPs [10:33] leaf-sheep: They still use the same name resolution method as samba does. [10:33] there were 2 kernels: 2.6.28-15-generic and 1.6.28-11-generic, I am in 11 and the same problem exists [10:33] lilzeus: good info thanks [10:33] Hi ! [10:33] leaf-sheep: Btw, Avahi is an implementation of Apple's Bonjour (which comes built in to Mac OS X, and is available for Windows too) [10:34] COMPIZ is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!! [10:34] hi xD [10:34] amazing!!!! [10:34] Hi [10:34] I will restart into 15 and see what happens [10:34] docmax: it churns my stomach tonight [10:34] but i still need a document management system [10:34] grawity: I liked the .local thing -- It's much easier. :3 [10:34] Hi === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth [10:34] leaf-sheep: Both are easy, IMO [10:34] can every body hear me!! [10:34] I haven't the wherewithall to configure it to something less unfriendly toward drunks [10:35] leaf-sheep: The second method is simply to install samba, no configuration needed. And you don't even need the .local suffix that way. [10:35] lilzeus: uh... I don't know [10:35] !ask | roni-riku [10:35] roni-riku: 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. :-) [10:35] roni-riku: hi. :) [10:35] grawity: Testing.... [10:35] roni-riku: No we cant hear you. [10:35] lilzeus: are you game for trying to install the Karmic beta and see if it works? [10:35] why [10:35] lilzeus: newer kernel [10:35] is there a driver for VHDs in Ubuntu? [10:35] hah [10:35] dr whats the ops room? [10:35] roni-riku: speak louder into the mouse. [10:36] hi [10:36] Xcell: Channel ops or network ops? [10:36] Xcell: #ubuntu-ops perhaps? [10:36] Dr_ Willis HOw are you [10:36] Xcell: Ops of this #ubuntu channel hide in #ubuntu-ops. The operators of the entire Freenode network (called "staffers" here) are in #freenode. [10:36] ok tx [10:37] I have two computers, one I use, and one mom uses, I want to make it so that while my mom is or isn't using the computer I can access files from it where ever my first computer gets internet, how do I do this? [10:37] is 50 mb partition enough for /boot partition? [10:37] leaf-sheep: Also, from my experience, Samba on Linux has been more stable than Bonjour on Windows, regarding name resolution [10:37] lucent: I restarted into 2.6.28-15-generic and the same problem is there [10:37] no internets [10:37] :( [10:37] grawity: Muchas gracias!! [10:37] lilzeus: oh [10:37] lucent: should I try the 'recovery mode'? [10:37] lilzeus: I don't think there's any networking in recovery mode [10:38] might be though [10:38] anybudy: proberly. i normally use 100mb. but i rarely ever get it 20% full... i rarely bother with /boot these days on its own parittion [10:38] grawity: I always have to access router configuration to view a list of attached devices. That was pain in the butt. :( [10:38] lucent: There is, once you run dhclient (and the recovery mode does that for you) [10:38] hi all, i had a problem with resolution on my pc and now i haven't in the avaible options the resolution that i had when i installe dubuntu. How to restore those settings? [10:38] lilzeus: if you get back to the configuration (livecd?) where it worked, check the kernel version 'uname' [10:38] 'uname -a' [10:38] grawity: cool info, great [10:38] hi there, and have a nice day, who can help me with my mic [10:39] Dr_Willis: I need to boot into windows anytime, even I format my "/" partition. [10:39] doesn't work integrated and external got a noise [10:39] anybudy: I keep linux onits own hd withits own bootloader there.. so do what you want. :) [10:40] Dr_Willis: a space? [10:40] The SiS760 GPU on my ASUS board heats up when I use default VESA driver. Is it because of any misconfiguration? [10:40] I'd like to buy a sentence structure (joking) [10:40] Hi miia [10:40] hi there, noone can help me?? [10:40] lucent: or a keyboard with a not so flakey space key [10:40] Dr_Willis: almost willing to offer a donation [10:41] anybudy: It's enough. Just care you remove older kernels if necessary [10:41] lucent: i got a whole box of keyboards.. but im testing out this ibm one i got for $1 :) [10:41] shipping for a Model M from chicago to indiana... hmm [10:41] lucent: think of it as bandwithconservation [10:41] Dr_Willis:(thank you) cos of that I need a separate boot partition,does any system update cause a need for more disk space on boot? [10:41] twitter has me on edge sorry about that [10:41] I'm like tweetarded now [10:41] Dr_Willis how are you [10:41] anybudy: every kernel takes up a little more space. a few mb. [10:42] lucent: so you want me to run LiveCD again? [10:42] anybudy: 50mb should be ok. 100mb definatly ok. [10:42] !!!! [10:42] lilzeus: wouldn't hurt to know which version of the kernel your system does indeed work with [10:42] anybudy: my last /boot partition was 2gb. so i could keep some live cd's also on there for 'rescue' work [10:42] !ot | roni-riku [10:42] roni-riku: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [10:42] lucent: what was it, lname? [10:42] lilzeus: while you're there a 'netstat -l' and 'route' could be cool [10:43] Dr_Willis: very good idea [10:43] lilzeus: 'uname -a' [10:43] Hi roni-riku [10:43] hi all, i had a problem with resolution on my pc and now i haven't in the avaible options the resolution that i had when i installe dubuntu. How to restore those settings? [10:43] Hi All I am new to linux but trying to learn. I can't get into Mythbuntu Control Centre I get "Failed to run /usr/share/mythbuntu-control-centre/bin/mythbuntu-control-centre as user root. And Unabale to copy the user's Xauthorisation file. Please help. I noticed this after having followed some on-line instructions to mount my second internal hard hard drive. It is now mounted and have put some data on it. I am afraid of rebooting ju [10:43] I don't have any clever way to remember that [10:43] Hi miia [10:43] hi [10:43] wer are uo [10:43] anybudy: grub2 is supposed to be able to boot iso files :) that will mean i need more space in /boot/ soon heh. [10:43] I have a question about sources.list, http://get.bitlbee.org/devel/ tell me to add a line there , I have done it and saved the file. then I run apt-get update. I see the host I added in the list but when I try to search for the pkg on the site nothing come up [10:43] abongile: pulling the plug out of the wall probably is not a good idea [10:44] anybudy: be cool to be able to boot and install the os from grub2 [10:44] The SiS760 GPU on my ASUS board heats up when I use default VESA driver. Is it because of any misconfiguration? [10:44] bye all. [10:44] lucent: do those commands now and compare to LiveCD? [10:44] wer are uo [10:44] abongile: rebooting with ctrl+alt+delete and then waiting some minutes, will safetly unmount any partitions / filesystems [10:44] lilzeus: cool, yeah [10:44] CornwallScouts4_: whats your preferred language? [10:45] Hi miia [10:45] lilzeus: at least you learn something, I don't try to be unhelpful here, just not sure what else to suggest [10:45] Dr_Willis: wow!exactly! but I dont know if it will be hard to search and install on boot partition... Need to search for it. [10:45] miia [10:45] lilzeus: those commands will give you more info about the things I think could be important to find out what is going on [10:45] lucent: But what's causing the error message when I try to launch the mythbuntu-control centre, I should mention the reason I needed mythbunto control centre was because live tv had stopped working. [10:45] abongile: I'm not a mythbuntu support guy [10:46] also I just don't know [10:46] Dr_Willis: Thank you very much. g. bye. [10:46] you ask me about linux though and I can help with any of the 200+ commands that I have learned about :) [10:46] hi there, who can help me with my mic sound? i use jj x86 with gnome [10:46] thanks [10:47] lucent: It's not how many commands you know, it's how you use them that matters.

[10:48] grawity: I saw a one-liner the other day that walked 'stat' output on all files reported by 'find' into 'awk' to sum the apparent filesizes [10:48] mind numbingly elegant [10:49] I'm not happy with the output of 'du' in a lot of use cases [10:49] hi all, i had a problem with resolution on my pc and now i haven't in the avaible options the resolution that i had when i installe dubuntu.

[10:49] I am using ubuntu server as a base for my laptop with a very light weight display manager [10:49] hey guys, i've been having this debate for the last couple of days, i've been doing some research and i wonder if you could help me and tell why vanilla ubuntu and not linux mint, for example? [10:49] lucent use df -h [10:49] can anyone tell me a way of saving networking profiles from cli [10:50] lucent: Like this? find -type f -exec stat -c %s + | awk '{ n=n+$1 } END { print n }' [10:50] niko47: -h doesn't change the behavior of counting blocks and assuming the crap is multiplied by a hard constant of 512 ;P [10:50] huhuu [10:50] lol [10:50] surkee kone [10:50] du is short for dumb in my opinion having used it a number of years, no offense to the authors [10:50] about df then :P? [10:50] Sakara_: did you try ifconfig? and for the route netstat -rn. there will be an output which nic has which config [10:50] roni-riku no mitäs :P? [10:51] lucent: 'du' actually reports how much a file takes on the disk, not its exact size. [10:51] after a (852 m 30 s) scan clamscan tells me there is 1 infected file of Scanned files: 155677 - but does not tell me which file is infected - what to do?

I typed it out. [11:29] -.- [11:29] Amaranth, i was trying to install ia32-libs, is it not there in synaptic? [11:29] Balsaq: In synaptic click on search and search for "ubuntu-restricted-extras" then install that package [11:29] ShapeShifter499: It's a simple command. Run it. And you should get information about checking authorized keys and such. Then you try and ssh in. Should be working fine. [11:30] leaf-sheep:ok [11:30] nic1: That package only exists for the 64-bit version (it's 32-bit libraries for compatibility with 32-bit apps like skype) [11:30] Amaranth, what are those two packages that you have suggested me to install? [11:30] leaf-sheep: hold on [11:30] nic1: Both of those packages are 64-bit only, 32-bit doesn't need them [11:30] ok Amaranth but tried it nterminal [11:30] will try your way [11:30] Amaranth, ok [11:31] Balsaq: terminal is fine too, just run `sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras` [11:31] Balsaq: you can also find it in Applications->Add/Remove :) [11:31] <_jim__jim> anyone use gyachi ? [11:33] _jim__jim: provide some details about your problem, and hopefully someone who knows about it will help you. [11:33] nic1: the only reference to this error I can find on google is people using 64-bit and someone having a problem with a different application and asking for help in this channel almost exactly a year ago (and they got no answer either) [11:33] leaf-sheep: Idk what I'm doing, I'm still geting this----------> /usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: ERROR: No identities found [11:33] ite lad [11:33] nic1: I doubt it'll help but try `sudo ldconfig` then run skype again === kb is now known as Guest25390 [11:34] i luv xchat [11:34] ShapeShifter499: Run "ssh-keygen" [11:34] <_jim__jim> prince_jammys, i cant find a d/load for intrepid [11:34] nic1: The only other thing I can think of is you're using a version of skype that for some reason requires the Qt 4.6 beta but that wouldn't make any sense [11:34] Amaranth, running sudo ldconfig and then skype gives the same for me [11:35] _jim__jim: you mean there is an application "gyachi" that you want to install, but don't find it in the repositories? [11:35] <_jim__jim> yeah prince [11:35] nic1: I guess it's time to ask ebay/skype for help [11:35] what is Qt 4.6 beta? can i find that in the synaptic of 9.04 ubuntu?

[11:37] ShapeShifter499: Be more specific with errors. It is likely because you recently generated a new pair of keys.

What could you recomend as a flash format streaming server? I am looking at red5 ( http://www.red5server.org/ ) it is written in Java which I'd like to avoid. Any hints for something else ? [11:48] i have 2 ubuntu to choose from when i start the computer after an upgrade, how do i get rid of the old one? [11:48] Night_Elf: I think red5 is pretty much it [11:48] j1mp492, two kernels? [11:48] Night_Elf: you could go with the proprietary solution and pay a lot of money for that [11:48] lucent: seems like the alternatives are not plenty ? ... [11:48] bazhang: think so, i can choose 2 ubuntus, 2 safe mode, 2 memtest but the other one is just an old version [11:49] lucent: well no. I'd preffer open sourced stuff :) [11:49] j1mp492, best practices is to keep an extra one around [11:49] Night_Elf: naturally. just saying it like I heard [11:49] Hi all [11:49] bazhang: what? i just want 1 [11:49] * lucent lifts DTR high [11:49] lucent: all right. I'll keep on reading for red5 then [11:50] j1mp492, then you can remove with synaptic package manager [11:50] j1mp492: You can change the timing of grub boot menu from 3 seconds to 0 seconds. That way you won't see them. [11:51] j1mp492: But then again, bazhang is right. It's good to have old kernels just in case. Some people upgraded their kernels and reboot. Something went wrong. Frozen. CPU overshot or whatever it is. [11:51] j1mp492: I'd actually like some older kernel around. Just in case the current and latest one gets damaged or anything for whatever reason. With an older one you'd still start the machine up [11:51] !kernel | j1mp492 [11:51] j1mp492: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [11:51] It's the heart! :) [11:51] !it [11:51] Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese.

[12:00] kbp: First, yes. g+rwx [12:01] kbp: Second, "user permission" and "creator permission" are the same thing. [12:01] ShapeShifter499: And from anywhere in the WORLD, you can ssh in, or use any clients that supports ssh. Learn to use Filezilla too for GUI File Transfers. [12:02] !info gnome > me [12:02] anyone here suing mythtv? === fabio is now known as fabio_ [12:02] grawity: thank you :) - oh i meant owner and viewer - so g stand for group. I guess o+rwx will apply to the owner, so what the other command left? [12:02] emil: maybe try #mythtv [12:02] @leaf-can you use sanba and ssh at the same time? [12:02] Ah. I was thinking suing, not using. [12:02] thanks rsk [12:02] ciao [12:03] kbp: u is user (owner, creator). g is group. o is others (world). [12:03] hahahaha [12:03] sorry [12:03] grawity: oh I see. I've written it down. Thanks alot :) [12:03] emil: Yes you can. They're the different protocols... just like with http, ftp, ssh, imap, etc. [12:03] hello...I am trying to create a local mirror...the problem I am having is that apache will not allow me to get to all the packages....I have symlinks turned on but I keep getting access denied...any help appreciated [12:03] * lucent gives up on trying to help a lost soul [12:04] got it thanks [12:05] kbp: there's a few ways to do that [12:05] I guess I am the 'lost soul'...thanks [12:05] kbp: I like grawity's way the best so no comment further :) [12:06] leaf-sheep: I have two router/dsl boxes, one that gives wifi through out the house, and one that gives the main source of internet, can I just port forward on the wifi box? [12:06] my xubuntu is sometimes crashing when i try to go to suspend; reisub, no reaction. what can be the reason. installation on nettop without hd? [12:07] this path fails for me when I publish my mirror via apache "ubuntu/pool/universe/p/policykit-gnome". I can ls the folder and see the symlinked files but get nothing from the browser. [12:07] xharx2: "suspend-to-ram" or "suspend-to-disk" ? [12:07] xharx2, try first to hilbernate...afterthis try suspend [12:07] ShapeShifter499: You can do what you want to. Every setup is different. If you have multiple *nix in the house, you want to set up different port for each different machine so the router know this PORT is for the specific machine, and this different PORT is for the laptop, etc. [12:07] suspend to ram [12:08] its happening only sometimes [12:09] i think you need to port forward from your modem and you router (wifi) [12:09] this will come in useful when you are accessing your server outside your network [12:10] ok on my port forwaring page its asking for a server ip address should I make one up or use the same as the computer where the files are going to be ssh from? [12:10] I am traying to find /etc/iftab file , but there is no one [12:10] ok on leaf-sheep:my port forwaring page its asking for a server ip address should I make one up or use the same as the computer where the files are going to be ssh from? [12:10] opps [12:10] To those who never used a cronjob before, I'm trying to obtain a "Select best editor" ASCII ART. Will somebody be kind enough to run "crontab -e" and copy/paste the ASCII for the personal script I'm working on? Many thanks. [12:10] damjan__: why? [12:10] leaf-sheep: ok on my port forwaring page its asking for a server ip address should I make one up or use the same as the computer where the files are going to be ssh from?

[12:11] which page are you in? the router or the modem? [12:11] ShapeShifter499: I do not know your router/modem at all. Do see http://portforward.com/ [12:11] emil: wifi router [12:11] leaf-sheep: its a netgear router [12:11] you need to place your computer ip [12:12] make sure your ip address is static [12:12] damjan__: the name for your network interfaces is specified in /etc/udev/rules.d/ somewhere. 10-network.rules iirc [12:12] ok [12:13] 70-static-something [12:13] damjan__: but are you using an up to date ubuntu version? What you describe was an old bug [12:13] just remove them all and let udev redetect [12:14] emil: I'm a big noob at this, how to I tell if the computer I'm ssh from is at a static ip? [12:14] ,,,,,, [12:14] are you suing 9.04? [12:14] using [12:15] ShapeShifter499: static or not static IP is not easy to know [12:15] emil: yea [12:15] What would cause my laptop battery to be discharging at zero rate even though it is connected to power?

"ssh shapeshifter@no-ip.org" will pinpoint to your IP. [12:21] Hz0, try use bfuteforce to crack router pass [12:21] Hz0: someone in your network? [12:21] bruteforce* [12:23] leaf-sheep: so wait do I install something new? cuse I don't know how to use that command [12:23] I'm getting refused connections [12:23] Hz0: I'm guessing you never set up your router password and/or are running unsecured Wireless where a goat with a laptop can leech off your Wifi without your permission. [12:23] This is my situation, I have a router and PC with two network card. One is wired and second is wireless. When I turn up bouth of them up, I cant get to internet, I think this is hapening because application dont know which card to use. What is a proper way to configure route for network card, that bouth of them can function [12:25] ShapeShifter499: What? From where to where? Please be more specific. If you can do it fine in local network, then it's likely the problem with port forwarding / firewall. The message simply aren't getting across. [12:26] gibt es in xubuntu irgendwo versteckt systemklänge, die man benutzen kann?

[12:27] ShapeShifter499: Oh don't use it now. You need to set it up first before you're able to do that.

[12:29] maybe if they're the same toolkit based apps like Gtk [12:30] I see.. where are the gtk themes located? maybe I can change it from there.. [12:30] Take0n: that's a little beyond what I know how to do [12:30] I just know roughly where stuff is and hope you can throw the dart :) [12:30] quick question i forgot where the xorg config file is [12:31] blitzer320: it's gone for recent versions of Ubuntu [12:31] you can create one and it will get used [12:31] maybe /etc/X11/xorg.conf [12:31] thanks lucent I will give it a try google is our best friend!! === bambam is now known as Guest68688 === BlouBlou is now known as BlouBlou_ === BlouBlou_ is now known as BlouBlou === william_ is now known as Guest57602 [12:32] thanks i think i'm gonna have to delete it after i update from jaunty to karmic [12:32] Take0n: heed that there's different theme engines for Gtk 1.x and Gtk 2.x [12:33] i have a debian package in my home directory and like t?o install that wth apt-get..how can i do that === Guest57602 is now known as william [12:33] Take0n: not that I know anything using Gtk 1.x anyways === william is now known as William [12:33] i cant click buttons (pause, play, volume, etc) in youtube. any ideas?

(after I install the app) [12:33] ShapeShifter499: Don't worry about it right now. Can you ssh into your own IP as grawity mentioned earlier? Did it work. [12:33] BullHornX: not using Adobe Flash ? [12:34] yea === Guest4791 is now known as William-Herry [12:34] BullHornX: "swfdec" or "gnash" won't work very good with Youtube [12:34] lucent: i think i am, ive installed flashplugin-nonfree [12:34] does any one have any idea about this error: " dpkg: error processing skype-ubuntu-intrepid_2.1.0.47-1_i386.deb (--install): [12:34] trying to overwrite `/usr/share/skype/sounds/CallConnecting.wav', which is also in package skype-common [12:34] " [12:34] j [12:34] BullHornX: oh, then I'm not really certain === Guest44999 is now known as NuovoNick [12:34] im having similar problems in zynga poker lucent [12:34] ShapeShifter499: Btw, I also tried sshing to your IP - it's shown as "filtered". In other words, blocked by your firewall. [12:35] im pretty sure its some flash player problem, im just too noob to figure it out myself [12:35] nic1: horrible packaging effort [12:35] ShapeShifter499: Alright, then sure, sign up for no-ip account, do install no-ip [12:35] nic1: sorry to hear you ran into that === NuovoNick is now known as darkjackaho [12:35] lucent, so i can not come out of this error now? [12:35] leaf-sheep: on which computer? [12:36] nic1: not easily [12:36] ShapeShifter499: It does not matter because both will obtain external IP. [12:36] nic1: it kind of sucks. you can look into forcing overwriting of conflicting files, see manual page for dpkg 'man dpkg' [12:36] but what about the computer with the files I want to ssh? [12:36] ShapeShifter499: Eg, you only have one WLAN IP, but multiple LAN ips. [12:36] no [12:37] I use only wlan [12:37] ShapeShifter499: Assuming you set up port forwarding to your computer. In other word, ssh to no-ip is same thing as ssh to your actual IP. [12:38] ShapeShifter499: I'd suggest fixing your firewall first, as with your current configuration, you won't be able to ssh in from anywhere. [12:38] I'm lost [12:38] ShapeShifter499: Install it on the computer. What other computer/laptop are you using?

[12:57] gamerx: now i go to internet with my first comp (win xp) and try to connect the two computers.... [12:57] Rumo: Sounds like you need to set up briding on Windows XP so any network devices connected to Windows machine can receive networking. This is kinda Windows thing. [12:57] leaf-sheep, grawity: here is the screen shot of the port forward screen http://tinypic.com/r/nwg4ee/4 [12:57] Rumo: Looks for err... "Bridge". I think you can right-click and bridge. [12:57] leaf-sheep, grawity: its done in firefox while its in full screen [12:58] leaf-sheep: a little more detailed please... [12:58] rumo, yes did you share the connection? [12:58] ShapeShifter499: Create a new connection for ssh. Port 22. [12:58] yes [12:58] rumo is are your 2 computers connected via a router? [12:59] Rumo: Ask gamerx. He seems to know what he's doing. I'm assuming he have Windows XP. I do not run Windows XP. [12:59] ernil: no [12:59] are you using a crosscable? [12:59] leaf-sheep: but what about the ip? [12:59] leaf-sheep, you can only bridge high-speed (ethernet) connections iirc, [rumo] [12:59] i'm thinking we can enable share internet [13:00] ShapeShifter499: On your Apple machine, run "ifconfig eth0" (assuming it's connected to the router via cable), that's your IP. Oh you didn't set up static IP as someboody once mentioned? [13:00] in windows [13:00] rumo, if you wait two minutes ill boot my virtual machiene [13:00] I need some assistance getting an ethernet card working. I just added a new Gig card and cannot get it to obtain an IP address [13:00] gamerx: ok [13:00] leaf-sheep: nope no static ip [13:00] rumo, so what computer are you on at the moment, im guessing the windows xp? [13:01] gamerx: both comp are on (and infront of me) [13:01] is it possible to clear a specific package dependancy using apt-get? [13:01] ShapeShifter499: Well, don't worry about that. Run "ifconfig eth0" and get the IP. Put that in the router configuration. Set port 22 to the said IP. [13:01] hi, I want to create archives with cronjobs. how I can create them easy everytime with a other filename? [13:02] @gamerx - i think rumo needs to check if he's using a crosscable rj45 [13:02] leaf-sheep: well I did setup no-ip [13:02] rumo, okay im just starting my vm, i havent had it running in months plz wait xD [13:02] emil, that may be but most modern devices can auto-detect the cable type [13:02] gamerx: im glad and wait for pleasure... [13:02] rumo, have you got both crossover and straight-thru? [13:02] leaf-sheep: that command [13:02] Hi all, I have a problem with my laptop. When I insert the live cd it loads the restricted drivers for it, but ifconfig -a doesnt show anything. Do I need to activate my wireless card or something? [13:03] BentJ: yeah i know vlc i just thought there 'd be any way to equalize in totem, i don't like to install too many software [13:03] leaf-sheep: just giving me the info of what eth0 is not the ip [13:03] pee: make "date" part of filename [13:03] i know =) but he's connecting via dial up =( [13:03] gamerx: someone told me crossover is not nessasary... [13:03] sry i meant benste [13:03] pee do you have a script that cron executes already [13:04] @rumo are those new computers? [13:04] emil, so what exactly would be the difference, he is having a RJ-45 cabl;e between both computers, and the winxp one is connecting to dial-up with a RJ12 modem? [13:04] llutz: tar -cf archive$date.tar file.text? [13:04] leaf-sheep: I got it [13:04] JuJuBee: no [13:04] ShapeShifter499: ifconfig eth0 | grep "inet addr" [13:04] Oh alright. [13:04] obiwan_: so you'd beter google for an EQ of pulseaudio [13:04] he might have an oldNIC [13:04] emil, tru... [13:04] obiwan_: pulseaudio is the soundserver used for all playbacks [13:04] leaf-sheep: Is it safe I'm doing this on wifi [13:04] pee: tar cf $(date'+formatofyourchoice').tar [13:04] trijntje [13:04] obiwan_: If you found something would be kind of you to let me know [13:04] net [13:05] Rumo, are the computers rather new (<3yrs) [13:05] u there? [13:05] pee I would create a shell script that does the archiving and use date as part of the name as llutz already suggested... === basti__ is now known as eeleven [13:05] llutz: thx. [13:05] leaf-sheep: I don't have any wires hooked to the comps, just power cord [13:05] why can't ubuntu see my windows 7 NTFS partitions :s [13:05] the one with ubuntu is totally new (1 month) [13:05] JuJuBee: I'm a newbie at shell scripts. but I will google for it. [13:05] pee: use "man date" to find your format-vars [13:05] this is extremely strange [13:05] the other is very old [13:05] on ubuntu 8.04 live cd, the atheros wireless driver gets loaded, but ifconfig -a only shows eth0 and lo, how can i debug this? [13:05] how about the windows? [13:05] ShapeShifter499: Sure. You might lose some connections when the routers get refreshed or something similar, but really... no. Yes, you'll be fine. It's just a port forwarding. [13:05] pee: seach cronjob [13:06] rumo, plz preceed your text with my name thnkx :) [13:06] !cronjob | pee [13:06] Sorry, I don't know anything about cronjob [13:06] gamerx: the one with ubuntu is totally new (1 month) [13:06] !cron | pee [13:06] rumo, how old?

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm [13:06] !cron [13:06] gamerx: the other is very old [13:06] stsm: NTFS partitions must be cleanly unmounted or they will be ignored [13:06] pee: try reading http://troy.jdmz.net/cron/ [13:06] gamerx: 8 years [13:06] lucent: well i just shutdown windows so :s [13:06] rumo :O [13:06] rumo, okay so you need a crossover cable [13:06] Anybody help me with a network card not getting dhcp address? [13:06] @gamerx thats a problem [13:06] gamerx: 1 month (ubuntu computer) [13:06] emil, you were right xD [13:06] :) [13:07] stsm: you may have to boot, shutdown, boot, shutdown [13:07] JuJuBee did you type dhclient eth0? [13:07] rumo, yes you need a crossover cable :0 [13:07] leaf-sheep: ok what do I use TCP or UDP or both? [13:07] gamerx: ok [13:07] rumo, do you have one? [13:07] gamerx: and it is plug-in ?? [13:07] lucent: ok will just try again [13:07] stsm: there's 2 full cycles involved to cleanly chkdsk and unmount a ntfs partition from windows [13:07] i suggest check if the cable your using is cross over [13:07] ShapeShifter499: Err, to be honest, I don't know what protocol it uses, but both won't hurt. [13:07] anybody managed to combine *automatic* login with password-less setup of the wireless in 9.10? [13:07] rumo, it looks exactly the same exept the wires are wired differently [13:08] amgarchIn9: can't be done, that I know of [13:08] ubuntu_: yes [13:08] ShapeShifter499: Turned out to be TCP. Both will be fine. [13:08] rumo, so the wired used for sending are swapped with the recieve wires on one end... [13:08] Rumo: prolly better to get rj45 crossover connector and use 2 ethernet leads, cheaper [13:08] amgarchIn9: it's not exactly a bug either, it's a limitation of passwordless login [13:08] lucent: I know it was the case in 9.04, also not in 9.10? [13:08] gamerx: can i cut the cable and fix it in other sequence? [13:08] NO [13:08] Artikul8, wzzp? [13:08] leaf-sheep: ok, and I set the begin port at 22 and the end port at 22? [13:08] JuJuBee well then u should get an address from the dhcp server [13:09] ubuntu_: not working... [13:09] does anyone know how to ignore one specific package dependancy? [13:09] amgarchIn9: oh that I haven't tried in a while but I don't see why it would have been improved or how it could be improved [13:09] rumo, crossover and ethernet cables are fairly cheap, our showp sells them for $5 [13:09] ShapeShifter499: Yes. [13:09] @rumo you can only do that if you have an rj45 crimpling tool [13:09] does it return anything after you type dhclient eth0 [13:09] rumo, but technically yes [13:09] emil, i think he means just cut it in the middle.. [13:09] amgarchIn9: passwordless login works by logging you in without knowing the password, and the authentication for the keyring works by having the password [13:09] ahhh [13:09] amgarchIn9: take your pick [13:09] emil + rumo, whitch is a pritty bodged job xD [13:09] gamerx: can i cut the cable and fix it in other sequence? ---> number 1 with 8 and 2 with 7 and so on??? [13:10] that's a bit risky [13:10] JuJuBee, try ifconfig eth0 down, then ifconfig eth0 up, then dhclient eth0 [13:10] ubuntu_: DHCPDISCOVER statements... but doesn't appear to be getting an addresss [13:10] emil + rumo, yes it is, you could fry your network card [13:10] k, hang on [13:10] =) [13:10] rump rj45 crossover connector about 2 bucks [13:10] Rumo: [13:10] so i have the same problem [13:11] rumo, you need a crossover cable [13:11] gamerx: what means fry? [13:11] JuJuBee, it should be set by default in ubuntu to search for a DHCP server, which version are you using? [13:11] the ubuntu installer cannot see my windows 7 partitions.... [13:11] rumo, check if the colours of the wires (in the ends) are the same sequence or different on either end [13:11] ubuntu_: using jaunty [13:11] i never ever had this issue before with dualbooting with xp or vista [13:11] Rumo: fry is to stick something in hot oil like "french fries" [13:11] rumo, fry = dead nic [13:11] hahaha [13:11] any suggestions? [13:11] lucent, i rofl :) [13:11] stsm: It is not a bug, that's a feature. :) [13:11] Rumo: it also means damage in computer world [13:11] its just seeing my intire disk unallocated :s [13:11] JuJuBee, did you try those commands? [13:11] stsm: What version? [13:12] lucent, you never fail to amaze me xD [13:12] eaf-sheep: 9.04 [13:12] latest stable [13:12] ubuntu_: at one point it did get an address in the 208.67.112 range, but it was connected to a router that should have given a 192.168.1.0/24 address [13:12] gamerx: English is the truly amazing FAIL. [13:12] ubuntu_: yes, no luck [13:12] i have had to cut a cable and rewire it to a crossover cable beofre :) works fine [13:12] ubuntu_: this is a new card. Could be driver issue... If I boot into winblows the card gets a correct IP [13:12] use luster terminals :) [13:13] gamerx: i cut some cables in past stick it through a wall and put it together --> all was ok and fine.... [13:13] stsm: Sure it's looking at the right harddrive? Does ''fdisk -l'' show the windows partitions? [13:13] rumo, then go for it [13:13] JuJuBee, is it fine if you set a static address? [13:13] geirha: yep right drive [13:13] rumo, i can find you a guide if you like [13:13] also looked with gparted [13:13] amazing! [13:13] rumo, han gon [13:13] doesn't appear to be [13:13] leaf-sheep: chatzilla is not letting me use ShapeShifter499 but is letting me use ShapeShifter499_ [13:13] leaf-sheep: so this is me now [13:13] gamerx: i would be glad... [13:13] ShapeShifter499_: Welcome back. [13:13] JuJuBee, just search for a different driver to use [13:13] geirha: the intire HD is unallocated space in linux, but it boots windows just fine lol [13:13] stsm: And the drives show up with the correct size? [13:14] geirha: yeah [13:14] Rumo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_crossover_cable [13:14] leaf-sheep: ok so now what? [13:14] ubuntu_: I went to Realtek and downloaded and installed latest driver [13:14] leaf-sheep: got everything up [13:14] rumo, not sure if this is of any help: http://bit.ly/45kG5a [13:14] rumo, its the one on the bottom of that page [13:14] on ubuntu 8.04 live cd, the atheros wireless driver gets loaded, but ifconfig -a only shows eth0 and lo, what should I do to get my wireless working? [13:15] gamerx: and llutz: thanks a lot !!!!!!!!!!! [13:15] ShapeShifter499_: It's mostly about testing stuffs. Try "ssh shape@external-ip" -- and "ssh shape@shifter.no-ip.org" [13:15] leaf-sheep: what about my account at no-ip [13:15] oh [13:15] trijntje, unfortunately it appears there is no driver for your card [13:15] ShapeShifter499_: Dod you install no-ip? [13:15] ShapeShifter499_: And configured? [13:15] leaf-sheep: yes [13:16] but I did not use the ip the site gave me [13:16] rumo hth, make sure you got the sequence right xD [13:16] stsm: Seems you're not the only one http://www.bauer-power.net/2009/06/how-to-dual-boot-windows-7-and-ubuntu.html [13:16] leaf-sheep: but I did not use the ip the site gave me [13:16] ShapeShifter499_: What do you mean? You don't use the IP? [13:16] stsm: It sounds like windows 7 is partitioning in a non-standard way [13:16] gamerx: ok ;-) [13:16] ubuntu_, then why does the restricted device driver gets loaded? === william is now known as Guest60906 [13:16] well they gave me a ip different to the one my comp has right now === Guest60906 is now known as William-Ubuntu [13:16] geirha: i guess thats what leaf-sheep menat with "thats a feature not a bug" [13:16] geirha: thanx [13:17] leaf-sheep: well they gave me a ip different to the one my comp has right now [13:17] rumo, once you have done that come right back :0 [13:17] trijntje, it is not funtioning properly cause u should have wlan0 there or something try reinstalling the drivers [13:17] stsm: GPT? [13:17] stsm: you could try 'parted' [13:17] i [13:17] lucent: Even GPT is standard. [13:18] ShapeShifter499_: http://ubuntulinuxhowto.blogspot.com/2006/06/dynamic-dns-no-ip.html [13:18] leaf-sheep: I'm quite confused [13:18] lucent: no geirha is correct [13:18] oh bugger to hear [13:18] gamerx: ill send you a private message [13:18] ubuntu_, its in a live environment. Wireless stopped working on winXP so I thought i'd see if ubuntu could use it. [13:19] tijntje, it sounds like a hardware issue [13:19] In ubuntu 9.10 are port open or closed by default? I cannot seem to access my laptop from another box even though ufw is disabled and port I am trying connect to is open (i.e. somebody is listening) [13:19] try a different wireless card or use it in a different pc [13:19] stsm: The latest version of gparted may have a work around, so grabbing the latest gparted live CD may allow you to manually prepare the ubuntu partitions [13:19] okay i just upgraded to karmic hoping that the new ati driver would make cairo-dock's background transparent but it hasn't can i get any help [13:19] rittyan: 9.10 comes with a firewall, but it's disabled by default and everything is open. [13:20] grawity: thank you === darkjackaho is now known as Guest64219 [13:20] whats the command on par with ipconfig /renew (refresh all ip addresses) [13:20] rittyan: can they ping each other? this is on a lan or over the internet? [13:20] geirha: yeah ill probably get it fixed with googling and trying stuff === Guest64219 is now known as NuovoNick [13:21] Hello, i got the tip to use this line in fstab to mount a ftp folder: [13:21] //host/share /mnt/share cifs username=user,password=pw,uid=useruid 0 0 [13:21] Dr_Willis: yes they can [13:21] but what i have to write at uid? [13:21] Dr_Willis: lan [13:21] grawity: Remember our conversation earlier about samba, avahi, cloud.local and whatnot? What about http protocol? [13:21] leaf-sheep: What about HTTP? [13:21] gamerx: try ifconfig eth0 down, then ifconfig eth0 up [13:21] LaireTM: cifs is not for ftp. [13:21] LaireTM: that mounts a samba share... [13:22] grawity: Is there something similar for HTTP? (eg, http://mps.local/) as to avoid specific IPs -- as long as they're on local. [13:22] LaireTM: and uid is for the users id. try echo $UID to see your users uid. [13:22] leaf-sheep: ok I'm good [13:22] leaf-sheep: Name resolution, whether it is samba, avahi, /etc/hosts or DNS, works at system level, and affects _all_ programs. [13:22] LaireTM: theres other tools to mount ftp servers as local directories. [13:22] leaf-sheep: So if both boxen have Avahi/Bonjour, everything - ping, $BROWSER, ssh - should be able to use that. [13:23] does anyone know how to ignore one specific package dependancy? [13:23] permanently [13:23] hsarci: why? [13:23] Dr_Willis i tried: [13:23] curlftpfs#:@ /media/ftp_markus fuse rw,allow_other,noauto,user 0 0 [13:23] it works but i cant edit files in the folder [13:23] ive installed qsynergy which has a package dependancy on synergy but im using it with synergy-plus instead [13:24] i see that gamerx typed ifconfig eth0 down lol... [13:24] hey guys i want to ask this for long , but how and where i can learn about ubuntu for good [13:24] but anytime i do anyhting with apt-ge tor aptitude it brings up the fact that qsynergy depends on synergy [13:24] hsarci: file a bug and fix the source package would be the best way [13:24] 'ello, I have an odd problem where every time I start a new terminal, it also starts up thunderbird [13:24] skyn3t, system -> help and support? [13:24] jrib, its not really a bug... [13:24] skynet wtf? [13:24] http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/ hsarci [13:25] ubuntu_: Learn to tab-complete nicknames. [13:25] jrib, not really skilled enough to fix source [13:25] trijntje : yes [13:25] I got the lightning addon installed on it and have connected it to the taskbar clock applet [13:25] !avahi > leaf-sheep [13:25] any ideas why it does this? [13:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi [13:25] Blob: Maybe you have Thunderbird somewhere in ~/.bashrc or like? [13:25] hsarci: it's a text file that list dependencies. Take 5 minutes to learn the syntax and do it right. Otherwise you need to resort to a hacky solution anyway [13:25] grawity, thanks [13:25] !enter | blob [13:25] blob: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [13:26] hi all [13:26] trijntje : i need to learn this man im losing some jobs becaouse of that [13:26] !packaging > hsarci [13:26] hsarci, please see my private message [13:26] !source > hsarci [13:26] grawity, i only just started using xchat, my other client didnt do that [13:26] grawity: I'll take a look [13:26] ubuntu_: Almost all clients do that... what was the "other" one? [13:26] trijntje : i know a litle bit , but litle bit wonr help [13:26] jrib, i know what a source is.... [13:26] grawity: What is the essential packages for avahi? I don't think my home server have it. I'm guessing avahi-autoipd ? [13:26] grawity, its was called CGI:IRC [13:26] wont* [13:26] hsarci: I didn't tell you what a source is. I told you how to fetch the source package and rebuild it [13:27] ubuntu_: What's "CGI:IRC" ? [13:27] leaf-sheep: ok I'm trying "ssh shapeshifter@shapeshifter.noip.org" and its hanging [13:27] skyn3t, that is a good place to start, have you read it? [13:27] gamerx: how long is 1/2 inch in cm?? [13:27] irc://irc.rizon.net/tzatziki-fansubs [13:27] hello all [13:27] pqrstuv, uhh, an IRC client based on CGI, lol [13:27] leaf-sheep: -autoipd is part of Avahi, but it does something else - it's used for zeroconf IP configuration, as a fallback where neither static IPs or DHCP are working. [13:27] can someone assist me please with a small problem? [13:27] trijntje : yes [13:28] Catalin, please ask [13:28] leaf-sheep: So it's not needed. [13:28] Rumo: about 1.252cm [13:28] ShapeShifter499_: Ping your no-ip.org. If it's different IP (from your external IP) then no, you need to update your no-ip. [13:28] bazhang, i want to install identd on xchat in Ubuntu 9.04 [13:28] grawity: it was ^^; had changed the locale language for thunderbird and accidentally copy&pasted lil' extra there too [13:28] leaf-sheep: Using ping for name resolution is bad. [13:28] ok [13:28] skyn3t, than you know quite a bit about how ubuntu works. If you want more specific information you should search the web [13:28] grawity: What do you suggest other than pinging? [13:28] grawity: thanks, that settled it [13:28] trijntje : also i have ubuntu running on VMware on my Windows [13:29] leaf-sheep: 'host', of course. (Or 'dig', or - to test /etc/hosts|avahi|nbns - getent hosts foo) [13:29] jrib, before I do this, do you know of any way possible to allow synergy to control a windows vista machine even if its at the login screen? otherwise, do you know of any other input sharing program that can do so? [13:29] hsarci: nope [13:29] bazhang, any ideeas how i do that? [13:29] Is broadband internet connection must for sendmail configuration? [13:30] pqrstuv: no [13:30] Dr_Willis wich tools you mean? [13:30] jrib, ok thanks [13:30] pqrstuv: If you expect to receive lots of spam - yes. Otherwise no, a MTA can run on dialup. [13:30] Hey everyone, i'm looking for some more option for the cp or mv command in Ubuntu. The man is complete enough, but i want some more options, for example : prioritization, pause, resume after reboot, [13:30] pqrstuv: I'd say, stay away from sendmail though. postfix is more secure and much easier to configure. [13:30] I have dial up. Can i install and configure sendmail? [13:31] pqrstuv: why do you want sendmail? [13:31] pqrstuv: It does not matter what internet connection you have. You still can have sendmail or whatever you want. [13:31] pqrstuv: But read my previous message. [13:31] Ok [13:31] does anyone knows how to install ident on Xchat(Ubuntu 9.04) ? [13:31] ^ [13:32] Catalin: Install the "oidentd" package. [13:32] Catalin: normally these days - ident servers are rarely needed. [13:32] and are often considered a security hole. [13:32] from synaptik package [13:32] Dr_Willis: Security hole? Why? O_o [13:33] grawity: its basically yet another outdated unneeded service to have more exploites for. [13:33] grawity: Got it! http://cloud.local/ worked! avahi-daemon wasn't installed on HTPC. [13:33] i`m an irc operator in a server and i need that ident [13:33] Dr_Willis: Yeah, how exactly would you exploit it? [13:33] Catalin: using ident as a 'security' feature - is rather insecure. [13:33] Catalin: sudo apt-get install oidentd [13:33] Hi. Iam from IRAN. [13:34] Dr_Willis: identd, finger, and such - they aren't needed often, but they are so simple there's little to exploit. [13:34] Dr_Willis: if the man wants to stab himself in the face i will supply the knife :) [13:34] grawity: it was designed to help identify and make more things secure. but its easially spoofed,. [13:34] Give him a spork! [13:34] :) [13:34] Dr_Willis: Not when you don't have root, no :] [13:34] where are you from? [13:34] thank you guys [13:34] theres a 5 line perl 'identd' server out i used years ago. :) [13:35] hello all i gpt an odd problem i need to solv involving firefox [13:35] anyone help? [13:35] digital-rouge: yes, what is it? [13:35] thus ends the history of identd 101 lesson I guess. :) [13:35] well i got multipul tabs opening when i start fire fox and i have choosin the start with homepage option [13:35] what's the meaning of IRAN [13:36] and disabled the start from last session option [13:36] digital-rouge: Are you sure you don't have two homepages set? [13:36] digital-rouge: try to ctrl-q quit firefox and then start it again [13:36] pretty sure i typed in just one [13:36] ok === john is now known as Jaymac [13:37] cppking: i don't think that is relevant to ubuntu [13:37] nope 2 tabs stillopening last pass and my google home page i set [13:37] Boohbah: He's asking about az's message. [13:38] leaf-sheep: you still there? I got the command "ping shapeshifter.noip.com" to work [13:38] ~~~he is right [13:38] grawity: oh, yes [13:38] ShapeShifter499_: It's no-ip, not noip. [13:38] grawity: did not work [13:38] grawity: I know [13:38] ShapeShifter499_: What IP? Is it same as http://whatismyip.com/ ? [13:38] yea [13:39] i suggest try using his ip, instead of setting up an ddns [13:39] he mishgt get confused [13:39] might [13:40] so now how to I link a folder? [13:40] through ssh [13:40] \? [13:40] ShapeShifter499_: ln -s onething otherthing [13:41] w8 [13:41] ShapeShifter499_: If you're running GNOME, open Places -> COnnect to Server [13:41] ShapeShifter499_: or were you ashing how to connect via ssh to a location? :) see what grawity said. [13:41] but don't you have to tell what folder to share or not? [13:41] hi [13:41] or use the 'sshfs' command line tool [13:41] ShapeShifter499_: for ssh. it can access anything the user can access [13:41] ok [13:41] ShapeShifter499_: its not samba :) [13:42] grawity: ... [13:42] MJ94: ? [13:42] Brad! Janet! [13:42] grawity: CN hater? :( [13:43] MJ94: No, I just left. === LeNsTR is now known as LeNsTR|away [13:43] grawity: Forever? [13:43] boobah: didt work [13:43] anyone got any other ideas? [13:43] /set irc_conf_mode on [13:44] grawity: People are wondering what happened, can you pop it and say something? [13:44] grawity: Sine's gone. [13:44] SWEET!!! :D [13:44] MJ94: I know about that one, I was an admin of it. [13:44] it works [13:45] hi, how do i make my computer wake up from standby mode? [13:45] grawity: Crispy's back, his wife's back. [13:46] grawity: now do I have to have openssh-server installed on the computer that is receiving the files? [13:46] ShapeShifter499_: No, only the client (which already comes with Ubuntu). [13:46] hmm... cant say i ever rried just the clients installed. I always install openssh server on every box :) [13:47] grawity: so I won't mess up anything if I "sudo apt-get purge openssh-server" ? [13:47] ShapeShifter499_: You shouldn't - but I would keep the server installed, in case you want to access your PC someday [13:47] ls [13:47] what programming language(s) should i look into if i want to learn code to understand how ubuntu works [13:47] damn. [13:48] debian? [13:48] Sagaci: Most of everything is written in C and C++ [13:48] Sagaci: But some things are written in Python, many are just 'bash' scripts, and there might be pieces of Perl somewhere. [13:48] grawity: so what should i do [13:49] Sagaci: Learn some C [13:49] I got impersonated by my old friend and old business partner on a project (on cn). He flooded my channel, reset my points and fucked everything up. I reported his IP to Cobi, he went to Council to *line him. Nobody responded so he was going to operpower :) Fahad and nathan made a big deal. That's not right. They did what they thought was right DDoSed him... That's not a cool thing. Cobi's an oper for a reason. You can't be a smart ass, and say "oh, [13:49] not being lined, cobi won't do it. It'd be opepr abuse, and since I can't do it neither can he!". BTW, council's being reformed, grawity. See the wiki. [13:49] MJ94: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [13:49] grawity: is it safe, in the sense of hacking, to keep openssh-sever? === Theexperts is now known as adminsss [13:49] Python is easier to learn as a first language i believe [13:49] ShapeShifter499_: As long as your password isn't "foo123" === adminsss is now known as Theexperts [13:50] grawity: password to my computer? [13:50] ShapeShifter499_: Yeah [13:51] ShapeShifter499_: Besides... incoming connections require "port forwarding". (If you ever used BitTorrent, you'll understand.) And if you configured your router to forward port 22 to the other computer, your own isn't accessible from outside (unless you also set up another port). [13:51] perhaps somebody here can help me: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2009-October/198885.html [13:51] ?? [13:51] hello [13:51] grawity: my pass is 9 characters long is that good? and I never had to port forward to use bittorent [13:52] don't know what happened, but ubuntu tried to connect to update manager and locked down apt [13:52] ShapeShifter499_: Yeah, that's good - but look up "dictionary attacks". [13:52] ShapeShifter499_: many torrent clients and ruters can auto-forward as needed. :) [13:52] GuidMorrow: Locked down how? [13:53] dictionary attacks........uh oh [13:53] how do I change a user pass [13:53] passwd [13:53] I thought this thing was supposed to notify the user before DOWNLOADING updates [13:54] ShapeShifter499_: But like I said, your own PC probably isn't accessible yet. [13:54] grawity: Come back, before CN turns into Cluellium. [13:54] not like M$ and the surprise "gold shield" [13:54] i hear good things about win7đ [13:55] !windows | boris- [13:55] boris-: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents [13:55] whys that [13:55] IMO, updates (especially on Windows and Ubuntu) should be as automatic as possible (unless the user disables them). Since most users of these two OSes are nooblets in terms of computing experience, the OS has to take care of itself. [13:56] grawity: what do you mean? [13:56] but times before, I'd look around, and there's already a Windows update being downloaded, and when it isn't even on a Patch Tuesday [13:56] can i get ubuntu 10 beta?? [13:56] ubuntulover, no [13:56] boris-: this is the ubuntu support channel, not a microsoft discussion channel [13:56] but that's not the point, how do I tell Ubuntu to notify me of updates before I install them?! [13:56] ubuntulover: Wait 6 months, you can! [13:57] ubuntulover, you may mean 9.10 though; discussion in #ubuntu+1 [13:57] ubuntulover: ubuntu 9.10 beta? [13:57] GuidMorrow: I think that one is in "Software Sources"> [13:57] GuidMorrow, ubuntu does not install any updates without an action from you [13:57] yes , vox i mean ubuntu 9.10 beta [13:57] ubuntulover: yes, you can download it from ubuntu.com [13:57] leaf-sheep , grawity: thanks for the help [13:57] Hi all... the inevitable question: Should I upgrade to 9.10? What are the benefits (besides the advertised ones)? [13:58] !karmic | swiftarrow [13:58] swiftarrow: 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 [13:58] "Only notify about available updates" [13:58] ShapeShifter499_: Good luck! [13:58] leaf-sheep , grawity: now I'm a bit smarter and know what and how to use SSH [13:58] swiftarrow, wait two weeks and try livecd; discussion in #ubuntu+1 [13:58] during install, i chose for the partition /dev/sda6 the mountpoint /usr/local [13:58] hello [13:58] problem is, why does it show a taskbar item instead of a notification? [13:59] now i wonder which the actual folder is, that contains the files on /dev/sda6 [13:59] ? [13:59] thanks, vox your a lifesaver [13:59] BadElvis: Depends on where did you mount it. [13:59] ubuntulover: bear in mind that it's still beta for another 2 weeks [13:59] grawity: during install i chose as mount point /usr/local [14:00] BadElvis: Should be /usr/local, then. [14:00] were can i get ubuntu netbook remix in an .iso format [14:00] that channel will be packed after the official 9.10 release [14:00] i mean this channel [14:00] BadElvis: Well check /etc/mtab (for current mounts) and /etc/fstab (for mounts done on boot) [14:00] leaf-sheep , grawity: two quicky questions, If my mom uses the computer and forgets not to turn it off because of the SSH, SSH will reset its self when the computer turns back on right? [14:00] were can i get ubuntu netbook remix in an .iso format [14:00] hey, could someone help me getting a .jnlp file to run [14:00] ubuntulover: let me google that for you [14:01] all of the sudden it aint working anymore [14:01] ShapeShifter499_: You mean sshd, the server? It's automatically configured to run at startup. [14:01] vox, i am a developer. do i use betas all the time [14:01] ShapeShifter499_: Yes. As long as sshd is part of the startup scripts, sure. [14:01] /msg NickServ identify william [14:01] ubuntulover: i'm joking sorry google it yourself :P [14:01] leaf-sheep , grawity: how do I tell if it has been configured to start at boot? [14:02] ls [14:02] ubuntulover, the only iso for unr is karmic beta [14:02] grawity: it says /dev/sda6 /usr/local. does this mean everything in /usr/local is on /dev/sda6 and everything i put in /usr/local will be copied to /dev/sda6 ? [14:02] ShapeShifter499_: It's in /etc/rc5.d/ [14:03] grawity: Not /etc/default? :3 === LjL-Temp is now known as LjL [14:03] leaf-sheep: I have no idea about that. (Happy with rc.conf in Arch.) [14:04] BadElvis: Well... yes. [14:04] i don't care if it's beta. i'm a developer AND a beta tester , Vox [14:05] leaf-sheep , grawity: I see a file in /etc/rc5.d named s16ssh [14:05] leaf-sheep , grawity: I think that means I'm good?

[14:05] I have a issue wuth some php5 modules missing [14:05] that I need [14:05] grawity: that is what i thought, but im confused because there are some things in /usr/local that i dont know where they came from [14:05] #olpc [14:05] ShapeShifter499_: Lot of things are already automatically to run at bootup in Ubuntu. So you should not worry for most situation. That mean no-ip too. [14:06] BadElvis: Things such as? [14:06] is the a repo where the extra php5 modules are kept ? [14:06] is there any way to disable desktop swittching by using the scroll wheel? I use a laptop and i accidentaly slide my finger over the scroll area all the time [14:06] hsarci_: Install CCSM, run it, disable scrolling in the "Viewport Switcher" plugin. [14:06] !ccsm > hsarci_ [14:06] hsarci_, please see my private message [14:06] thanks [14:07] ccsm is in the repos? [14:07] Yes. [14:07] grawity: directories, e.g. bin, etc,lib, lost+found, sbin, share, ... [14:07] BadElvis: Those are supposed to be in /usr/local/. [14:07] leaf-sheep , grawity: one last question, how bad will this effect my mom if she plays a game off the net(like ones found on pogo.com) and at the same time I'm streaming, downloading, or uploading a file to the hard drive and I'm at another place(school, library, etc.)? [14:07] Vox???

[14:08] BadElvis: /usr means "Unix Shared Resources", if I remember correctly - it is where the system puts all programs, libraries, and resources (icons, sounds, themes). [Except for the very important things, which go directly to /bin and /lib] [14:08] but i dont find them in the repos [14:08] i get this: [14:08] leaf-sheep , grawity: I don't want my mom yelling at me saying that she couldn't play her favorite game cus it was slow [14:08] grawity: nah, [14:08] The requested plugins are: [14:08] Intel Indeo 4 decoder [14:08] cast: ? [14:09] where can I get these php5 modules [14:09] grawity: user, usr [14:09] ask! how do i set firefox to default? [14:09] BadElvis: And yes, if you have mounted /dev/sda6 to /usr/local, then everything you see in /usr/local is actually in /dev/sda6. [14:09] leaf-sheep , grawity: my internet speed at home is between 60k-150k [14:09] ShapeShifter499_: Think about it. You're sshing in via wireless. It's slow already that way. It's good for getting files/homework/etc. Streaming? Lol. I'm assuming you're not downloading/uploading gigantic files, are you? [14:09] is there a way ot find a program that works with a specific tuner card? [14:09] cast, did you see the error? The requested plugins are: [14:09] Intel Indeo 4 decoder [14:09] cast: You sure?

[14:10] hsarci_: In any case, simple-ccsm won't help you with that scroll problem. [14:10] no answer means no one knows [14:11] ShapeShifter499_: You should be okay. Remember, this is all new to you so you will have more time to learn what you can do and what you can't do. It's easier to do everything in terminal as to keep things minimal and simple. [14:11] Does anyone know if i can get jkain for ubuntu?

[14:11] lorenz: update-alternatives -config x-www-browser [14:12] ShapeShifter499_: For instance, it's best to use nano to jot down something -- a reminder -- as oppose to bring X and gedit (GUI) over the connection so you can get a text editor or your firefox (yes, even with bookmarks and everything, the way it is on your computer) appearing on the other side. [14:12] grawity, shylent in this case i'm talking bout virtual machines, not my main machine [14:12] ? === Papirote is now known as dA-kiNg [14:12] is there any way to turn it off?

[14:50] skx: no dramas [14:51] cousin_mario, how do i get the 32 bit version of mplayer? :S [14:51] psinetic: you'll have to tinker with apt, but I'm no expert on the matter [14:52] perhaps you could follow some guide to install firefox 32 bit that was out a while ago [14:52] psinetic: [14:52] last time i tinkered with anything i crashed my entire system. that's not gonna happen again. *sigh*, guess half my videos are unplayable [14:52] psinetic, is this a recent install [14:52] yes [14:52] 32 bit will work on that system as well [14:53] could i have multiple distributions use the same /home partition? === mysticrishi is now known as Rohirrim [14:53] im use ubuntu 9.10 64 bit and all run great :) linux ftw guys !

I am looking for a picture management app for my mum. Her workflow right now is to copy over the pictures manually into a folder that she gives a name to - usability nightmare and her photo folder is a mess already. F-Spot is way too complicated - I know tags are powerful and everything, but I don't want to spend ages explaining it to my mom - she has to be able to just select a few photos from her camera, type in a na [15:13] and then get a photo album with that name. Also Slideshows in F-Spot don't seem to work.it flickers and then crashes. Perfect would be something that works exactly like iPhoto on the mac. I use it myself and it just works for me. Any ideas?

[15:17] which could also be my car at times SSD [15:17] kelohippi: apt-get and aptitude both do the same thing. [15:17] kelohippi: No. [15:18] OldFarter: what are you babbling on about? [15:18] kelohippi: They both also rely on dpkg to do the actual job (unpacking, copying, removing files). [15:18] aight thanks [15:18] Well getting to the point: i installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my ssd and its remarkably unstable [15:18] if its a php module it should be php5- [15:19] OldFarter: That's a remarkable thing to say... sure it's not your hardware?

[16:23] http://gauravlive.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/fedora-11-alpha-desktop.jpg [16:23] hoi [16:23] shawn_, its been ages since I've used it in the command line, maybe look at cfdisk instead .. man cfdisk [16:24] [16:24] i accidentally remove my battery monitor from the top panel in gnome and i cant find it in the list to add it back to the panel....any ideas? [16:24] Halitech> are you trying to partition? [16:25] Ascavasaion: no queries please [16:25] Nitrohax, no, shawn_ is [16:25] Ascavasaion-> it can be used as a gateway [16:25] Idle0ne: I figured it out, it's because I had the "Plain with face browser" style selected, not the "Themed" [16:25] don't use fdisk, use gparted it's easier to see it with grpahic [16:25] what format are you trying to format too? === scboxmeer is now known as broodje [16:25] hoi [16:25] hi [16:25] Nitrohax ext2 for a DATA drive [16:25] Nitrohax, he's on a server so assuming no gui to see [16:26] n8tuser, do you not need an IP to use it as a gateway? [16:26] pizzabroodje [16:26] yeah fdisk would be easier. not hard might take a couple times [16:26] Ascavasaion-> off course you do [16:26] I'm trying to install a 32bit rpm on Jaunty using alien, but I can't work out how to force it to ignore the architecture, any ideas? === broodje is now known as pizzabroodje [16:26] on Jaunty 64 even :) [16:26] bobbyd_, what are you trying to install? [16:26] my name is pizzabroodje [16:27] n8tuser, and how do you ascertain the IP of the router? [16:27] bobbyd_: what are you installing? You've just finished listing a bunch of ugly hacks [16:27] hsarci> how did you remove the battery icon? [16:27] Halitech: Lacie 4L lightscribe burning software [16:27] Ascavasaion-> whose router? the one infront of you? [16:27] i rightclick and press remove [16:27] on accident [16:27] bobbyd_: you're trying to install a 32-bit package on a 64bit operating system? [16:27] using alien [16:27] llutz: This is the error now : Failed to parse arguments: Unknown option -l [16:27] Nitrohax, i go back to "add to panel" but its not there to choose [16:27] jrib: yep, there doesn't seem to be a 64biit version of it [16:28] vox: yes, it should work, but I can't get it to convert [16:28] bobbyd_: er. it's not going to work. [16:28] hsarci> it's there, it's listed as battery charge monitor. do you haeva fully charged battery? [16:28] bobbyd_: you have two choices. a: setup a 32bit chroot, or b: sit in the corner and cry [16:28] vox:I just installed the basic text-based 32bit version by forcing it and that works. AMD64 chips can run 32bit code [16:29] vox: I'll just convert it on my 32bit machine [16:29] vox: :) [16:29] Ascavasaion-> any host can become a router, thats why i asked which one ? [16:29] i'm using ubuntu netbook remix on an eeepc and cannot install the eeepc-acpi-scripts because it depends on a package that is not available [16:29] bobbyd_: ia32-libs [16:29] n8tuser, No, it is in another building. [16:29] bobbyd_: i'm aware of that. but your o/s is expecting a 64bit program [16:29] hsarci> make sure that you also have it checked on under the power management options menu [16:30] Helo does anyone know how to configure my audio settings in Ekiga [16:30] thomasm: tried single quotes without escaping (\")? [16:30] Nitrohax, my battery is not fully chraged [16:30] bobbyd_: the fact the cpu handles 32bit is essentially irrelevent here [16:30] vox: right, so if I can convert the rpm to a 32bit package, then i can force it after that [16:30] vox: A sane 64-bit OS, be it Windows or Linux or Mac OS X, can run 32-bit binaries provided the required libraries are installed. [16:30] vox: so I'll use my netbook :D [16:30] vox: In Debian Linux, that would be the ia32-libs package. [16:30] ok, did you find it to add to the panel yet?

[17:25] marko-_-, then use gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [17:25] you still don't get it [17:25] Because it doesnt work now. because of the unsatisfied dependencies [17:25] skyn3t: I don't know if they implemented OpenGL support for Linux host yet [17:26] natnatnat, you need all the parts of open office [17:26] how do I install it? [17:26] Halitech, http://pastebin.com/m2d82bf14 if i wanted to change here now the language or resolution, how do i do that since there are practicaly no sections [17:26] @find book [17:26] marko-_-, you manually add them and hope xorg actualy uses it [17:26] eh [17:27] DarkMasterHalo : oh ok , thanks for the heads up [17:27] DarkMasterHalo [17:27] DarkMasterHalo : i nmeed to learn how to use ubuntu very well [17:27] whatever, you don't get it, in the old xorg.conf you had sections so you just changed the numbers didn't had to add anything, in this xorg i need to add sections and all [17:27] Progress... :) people get mad no matter what happens. [17:27] openoffice 3.0 from oo website works properly [17:28] Dr_Willis, are you reffering to me? [17:28] why didnt sudo apt-get -f install work? it said: http://paste.ubuntu.com/295541/ [17:28] marko-_-: if you have an old xorg.conf from that box saved you could use it. [17:28] marko-_-: i had to do that on 9.10 to tweak a few things [17:28] i'm just wondering [17:28] why is that [17:28] i have no problems [17:28] Ubuntu Package also fine. [17:28] and i know i sound like a spoiled kid but wasn't it better the way it was? [17:28] skyn3t: Well, Ubuntu Developper focus on a user friendly distribution with as little command line as possible. So, it is not that hard, once you will learn how it works, every other distro are almost the same [17:28] People ahve been complaining for years that xorg.conf is too complex and buggy and needs tobe automated.. now on several of my box's i dont enve need an xorg.conf [17:29] marko-_-: no it was not better the way it was. [17:29] why? [17:29] tehbaut : check this out , this is one of those problem i have with VMware http://i35.tinypic.com/2ez372c.jpg [17:29] well Dr_Willis thanks for the help [17:29] having to alter xorg.conf to add/change somtning because i added a wacom tablet was definatly NOT better. [17:29] got remove that crap now :) [17:29] any devs willing to help me with the ext i need [17:29] or is it going to be a waste of time ? [17:29] skyn3t: frozen, or? [17:29] listen Dr_Willis it's cool that it does everything automatic, of course it is, but i thought that if you wanted to do stuff manually when something breaks [17:29] how to run Gallery Remote ? [17:29] how can't you get it [17:30] i think i sound very reasonable [17:30] marko-_-: then theres the hal/fdi files you change but thats slowly changeing. [17:30] I am installing ubuntu from alternate cd and have just configured lvm but I am unhappy with it and would like to get rid of it, how do I do it from the partitioner in the installator? [17:30] tehbaut : yes , and sometimes i need to restart like 2 o 3 times [17:30] i installed Gallery remote, but how can i run it now, where resides? [17:30] ok Dr_Willis thanks [17:30] Currently it says lvm is in use so no changes can de done [17:30] I was looking online. Apparently Firefox runs faster in windows than linux? Why is this? [17:30] marko-_-: 9.10 is doing some changes in that area. theres lots more changes on the horizion for X to come I imagine. [17:31] yea i have 9.10 [17:31] can anyone who has flash working in firefox under 9.04 tell me if they can see the extjs chart on this page? http://www.extjs.com/deploy/dev/examples/chart/stacked-bar-chart.html [17:31] marko-_-, you are using karmic? [17:31] support for 9.10 #ubuntu+1 [17:31] i'm not asking for support Ranakah did you even saw what i asked? [17:31] anyone ? [17:31] jorvis: me [17:31] on 9.10 i had to copy my old xorg.conf over so the nvidia-settings tool could proplery 'tweak' it.. thats going to be an issue when its released. [17:32] is there a ubuntu-server channel [17:32] marko-_-, seems you are asking for support on xorg with karmic ; #ubuntu+1 for that [17:32] DarkMasterHalo : how is your Display drive on ubuntu ( VirtualBox ) do u have proper drive on it ? [17:32] jorvis: but is a javascript example not flash [17:32] bazhang, no i'm not asking for any support [17:32] read my lines [17:32] drivers* [17:32] kid [17:32] bah [17:32] erUSUL - oh, I thought it was rendering via flash [17:32] marko-_-, then chat in #ubuntu-offtopic [17:32] UnixDawg: Type /join #ubuntu-server [17:32] *DRIVERS* [17:32] I can't figure out why it doesn't work for me [17:32] jorvis: i tried with ff3.5 maybe in 3..0.x does not work well [17:33] Yes, You have to install the Virtualbox tools. You will get mouse integration, display driver, dynamic window resize and several things there [17:33] erUSUL - are you sure it's not a flash render? if you right click on it the menu says 'Playing' and 'Enable Audio' [17:33] bazhang, it's a question that doesn't have to do with versions [17:33] hi all [17:33] marko-_-, its not support then it does not belong here. [17:34] how long does it usually take ubuntus source package servers to pickup on new program releases [17:34] what was the channel name for the ubuntu karmic? [17:34] jorvis: it does not appear to be [17:34] vak, #ubuntu+1 [17:34] #ubuntu+1, vak [17:34] thx guys! [17:34] skyn3t: just be thankful you don't have to mess with setting up a hac' [17:34] #winehq has 174 people in it, most of whom are silent and the few that are talking are ignoring me too :( [17:34] jorvis: and it is a site devoted to JS so it makes no sense to use flash [17:35] *175 [17:35] DanFoxDavies: they may not know the answer. [17:35] be patient [17:35] They could at least say something. [17:35] tehbaut : let's see how VirtualBox works for me stead VMware [17:35] DanFoxDavies: the way people act on irc.. makes that unlikely [17:36] Dr_Willis: on irc, that's not how it works. It doesn't really make sense for 178 people to say "I don't know" [17:36] DanFoxDavies: would you rather have 175 people say they don't know or 1 person who knows and helps you? [17:36] IdleOne: fair poijnt. [17:36] i can ping other boxes on my network, but cannot see shared printers or folders. what should i dop? [17:36] Stupid keyboard [17:36] !samba | nubuntu [17:36] nubuntu: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. [17:37] jrib: Yep..and if someone makes a comment.. then the 'asker' jumps on the commentator.. like a leach wanting more and more answers.. :) even when the origianl answer was 'i dont know' [17:37] :) [17:37] erusl: both are ubuntu [17:37] erUSUL - it is rendered via flash. If you right click the image and go to 'About' it says 'Swfdec 0.8.2 - Play Flash content in your browser' [17:37] do i still need samba [17:37] hi all.. when is Karmic Koala going to be released?> [17:37] !karmic | ranjithk [17:37] ranjithk: 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 [17:37] ranjithk: two weeks [17:37] Oct 29, but now that you asked it has been moved back a week [17:38] DarkMasterHalo : check this out maybe u can give me some advice about Nvidia drivers on VTbox http://i37.tinypic.com/314qlqd.jpg [17:38] how long does it usually take ubuntus source package servers to pickup on new program releases [17:38] jorvis: well i can not right click on it. nothing pops up === monztermash is now known as lukjad007 [17:39] @ubottu, @IdleOne: Thanks, one doubt: "In 9.04 there was a compatibility issue of ubuntu with Intel chipset, any idea about Karmic Koala? Is it resolved?" [17:39] iarp: if you mean for example for 9.04 to have its xchat updated from 5.6 to 5.9 normally it dosent. ubuntu dosent do constant updated except in special cases [17:39] !release | iarp [17:39] iarp: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [17:39] ranjithk, karmic discussion in #ubuntu+1 [17:39] iarp: theres backports and the ppa repos for unofficial updates of pckages if you need somting specific [17:39] skyn3t: Did you try the command nvidia-xconfig ? [17:40] ranjithk: I think some of the issues have been resolved. look at the release notes, might have some info. #ubuntu+1 for more support [17:40] DarkMasterHalo : no [17:40] skyn3t: Try running it as root and see what it does. Were you running this VM in Vmware before ? [17:41] DarkMasterHalo : im on VirtualBox now :) [17:41] the program update was released this morning, i tried just downloading it and following the installations ./configure, make, make install but i always get long lists of errors on make install [17:41] is there a list/search for apt-get? [17:41] tehbaut: apt-cache search [17:41] ah [17:41] tehbaut, apt-cache search package/term [17:41] tehbaut: apt-cache search [17:42] skyn3t: Ok, but you ran this VirtualMachine with VMware before, that maybe be why, I would try the command nvidia-xconfig as root and see. Otherwise, I would just uninstall the nvidia driver and install Virtualbox tools [17:42] iarp: you have to install all the various dependencies for the program to recompile it. [17:42] ok [17:42] !compile | iarp [17:42] iarp: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [17:42] ok, I'm trying to run virtualbox, but I'm being told to run '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' [17:42] doesn't work though [17:42] no such file/dir [17:42] this is becoming a pain that someone has not made all the exten for php5 in deb pkgs [17:43] iarp: depending on the program there may be a 'ppa' repository with updated versions [17:43] any tips? [17:43] !ppa | iarp [17:43] iarp: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. [17:43] tehbaut: pastebin what you ran and the actual ouput [17:43] and no one seems to know how to help me do it correctly with src [17:43] tehbaut: Did you run it with as root (sudo) ? [17:43] Dr_Willis: i'll look over that ty [17:43] do i still need samba to network folders across 2 linux boxes? [17:44] nubuntu: you could use nfs or sshfs/ssh [17:44] nubuntu: or samba.. or all 3 [17:44] nubuntu: You can use NFS shares. [17:44] DarkMasterHalo: virtualbox? no, I ran it from the menu: Applications > Accessories > VirtualBox [17:44] anyone know why the brightness on my monitor doesn't work? [17:44] tehbaut: Ok, try running the command sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup and see what it does [17:44] UnixDawg: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/93603 [17:45] UnixDawg: and I've been trying to help you, but you ignored the last 2 things I told you so far [17:45] DarkMasterHalo: that's what I did run, and it says 'no such file or directory' [17:46] tehbaut: hmm, Have you tried reinstalling VirtualBox, maybe the file was removed by mistake ? [17:46] how do you get firefox to use the official adobe-flashplugin for encoding instead of swfdec-mozilla? I have both installed [17:46] DarkMasterHalo: if I run 'virtualbox' from the terminal, it says 'The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist' [17:46] and I just installed it today [17:47] even setup two machines... but now I want to run one of them [17:47] tehbaut: Ok, try reinstalling it, maybe the package was kind of corrupted [17:47] that happens? [17:47] tehbaut: Well, it is possible [17:47] !flash | jorvis [17:47] jorvis: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [17:48] IdleOne - thanks, when I click that it tells me that it's already installed [17:48] DarkMasterHalo: I installed it from Add/Remove Programs [17:48] IdleOne, but when I right click a video it tells me that swfdec 0.8.2 is being used [17:48] tehbaut: Have you tried reinstalling it ? [17:48] jorvis: just remove the package for swfdec... [17:48] http://img387.imageshack.us/img387/7063/huhw.png [17:48] jorvis: I don't remember the command to reconfigure java. jrib probably remembers it [17:49] IdleOne - why java? === hazan is now known as sasaa [17:49] jrib - removing [17:49] errrr sorry nevermind jorvis was thinking of java [17:49] IdleOne: oh you're right, for flash you can just use sudo update-alternatives *something-with-flash*here* (jorvis) [17:49] DarkMasterHalo: I installed from Add/Remove... is there no option to reinstall? I have to remove and install again? [17:49] jrib: that is the one [17:50] jrib: that works for java also correct? [17:50] hey guys [17:50] lolz [17:50] IdleOne: java has a lot of alternatives related to it so there is update-java-alternatives [17:50] IdleOne: !multijava is the factoid :) [17:50] jrib: thank you. I'll try to remember it [17:51] tehbaut: Yes, but your settings will remain there, basically, the /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup is the command to build the kernel module has well as devices in the /dev directory. You need the vboxdrv file in order for virtualbox to run properly [17:52] jrib: maybe figuring out the correct command and adding a multiflash factoid would be good [17:52] DarkMasterHalo: I think I had to install dkms first, which I did do [17:53] looks like it's working now :) [17:53] IdleOne: sure, I'm not on ubuntu right now, but maybe jorvis can tell us if he discovered the correct name of the "alternative"? [17:53] I got it [17:54] udo update-alternatives --config xulrunner-addons-flashplugin [17:54] tehbaut: Okay..., I don't know what is dkms :P, maybe it is related to Ubuntu only, I'm on Fedora :P [17:55] !info dkms [17:55] dkms (source: dkms): Dynamic Kernel Module Support Framework. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.21.1-0ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 56 kB, installed size 376 kB [17:55] hello, my compiz effects are gone =( [17:55] where? [17:55] bazhang: Hey hey, thanks for the info :P [17:55] DarkMasterHalo, yw [17:55] docmax, re-enable them then? [17:56] docmax: If you want to join #compiz, I can help you there [17:56] I have an iMac with a dead internal HDD, so I installed 8.04 on an external hard drive which uses Apple Partition Map, but I can't seem to boot from it. How do I install grub on it, or what do I need to do? [17:56] samba is installed (as clicking "share" in properties doesn't prompt to download) but I still can't see my other box on the network. suggestions? [17:57] jtbandes, dual booting with refit? [17:58] jorvis: that command gave you a choice of which flash to use [17:58] ? [17:58] do u guys think 64-bit ubuntu is supported enough? [17:58] bazhang: no, default bootloader. OS X is on the internal HDD, but that's dead. [18:00] bazhang: I've tried grub-install on the external HD but it says unknown partition signature; not found or not a block device [18:01] jtbandes, you used gparted or the ubuntu partitioner for this? was not clear when you said apple partition map (hfs+ ?) === Enissay_ is now known as Enissay [18:02] bazhang: APM is a partition scheme. Used gparted to make the partition and the ubuntu installer to format it [18:03] I've deleted my /tmp folder on accident. What should it be? [18:03] it should be /tmp [18:03] Permissions on it? [18:03] drwxrwxrwt [18:04] here is a cool one for you : I uninstantiated from both the add/remove and the sympathetic package installer fire fox from my system ( ubuntu 9.04) and it still comes back and tries to run as the default browser- yes I have rebooted [18:04] Thank you both! [18:04] ;# Frans, I've already beaten you to it. [18:04] just an empty dir at teh root level [18:04] with permissions drwxrwxrwt [18:05] I installed grub 2 and rebooted and I got greeted with grub throwing "Error 15" at me. So I followed the ubuntu wiki guide "Recover Grub After Windows Installation" because that has worked for me before (on grub 1, though) and now when I boot up I just get greeted with a grub command line interface that looks like "grub> " [18:06] ryguy, on jaunty? [18:06] Russlar: i already did that, it has those permissions. yet ubuntu won't boot [18:06] bazhang: gparted recognizes it but I can't seem to install grub.. Do I even need to to make it boot off it? [18:06] bazhang> Karmic, but I dont see why it would matter much === kaini_ is now known as kaini [18:07] What's up with the Ubuntu help pages? [18:07] Hello leaders! [18:07] Loafers: they try to help [18:07] tmp is showing up as green in ls, as opposed to other directories, though. not sure why [18:07] IdleOne, Uhhhh well they're not up right now [18:07] Hello... [18:07] I need help with mounting a Partition that I created with gparted and giving myself acess to writing on it [18:07] Loafers: server might be down [18:08] Hola everyone [18:08] ello [18:08] kisses from Spain === spine is now known as sPiNe [18:09] !french [18:09] Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [18:09] Whats the difficult to mount the partition shawn_? [18:10] akuma_s well I do "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /DATA" when I change directory to it and try to write a file === heroid_ is now known as heroid [18:10] akuma_s when i try to writ the file it says permission denied [18:10] Frantropy: this is because of the directory permissions. if you create any directory with permissions set to chmod a+rwx , it will be printed in green with ls [18:10] shawn_: do an ls -l /DATA [18:11] typecast: so my /tmp/ permissions are wrong then? [18:11] shawn_: sounds like the perms on it ar 755, owner root [18:11] Frantropy: no, they are correct [18:11] if I used split to split a file, how do I join it back together? [18:11] russlar: Permission denied ?????????????????? ? ? ? It actually has those question marks and then it says lost+found [18:11] typecast: that weirds me out, because ubuntu still wont boot [18:12] Frantropy: everyone needs to have the permissions to read, write and execute fieles in /tmp [18:12] shawn_: you're doign an ls -l form inside the folder, do this: ls -l / | grep DATA [18:12] Frantropy: do you have any error message? [18:13] in gdm (in karmic) gnome power manager says the config file is missing. no further error messages, except it won't go past gdm [18:13] how can i modify my /etc/hosts regarding of an ip from an eth device? [18:13] only thing i can figure is that 1. it's something to do with /tmp or 2. lack of free space [18:13] I need advice, my network services are up but don't work for the user, only for root... anyone? [18:13] saftsack: huh? [18:13] background: i want my own hostname to be connected with the ip which was assigned by dhcp [18:14] saftsack: The format of /etc/hosts is: "ipaddress hostname" [18:14] Frantropy: can you log in at the console? [18:14] grawity, yes but i get my ip from a dhcp. so it isnt static [18:14] russlar: drw-rw---- 3shawn admin 4096 2009-10-17 12:43 [18:14] Can anyone help me out with a grub 2 problem? [18:14] typecast: you mean in recovery nide? yes [18:14] mode* [18:14] if you mean xterm in gdm, no [18:14] saftsack: Why don't you just use 127.0.0.1 for it? /etc/hosts won't affect any other computers, only your own [18:15] Make your question ryguy.. [18:15] grawity, i need it for ipsec.conf. there i entered my hostname so that i can use my ipsec tunnel on every generic lan which has dhcp [18:15] grawity, so 127.0.0.1 would be bad [18:15] I installed grub 2 and rebooted and I got greeted with grub throwing "Error 15" at me. So I followed the ubuntu wiki guide "Recover Grub After Windows Installation" because that has worked for me before (on grub 1, though) and now when I boot up I just get greeted with a grub command line interface that looks like "grub> " [18:16] saftsack: I guess you'll have to edit the config of dhclient, to auto-modify /etc/hosts [18:16] Frantropy: did you check whether it is a problem with to little free disk space when you booted in recovery mode? [18:16] typecast: not sure how to do that (in rec. mode atm tho) [18:16] russlar What now? [18:16] on a broken android phone with just terminal ;) [18:16] if I used the "split" command, how do I put the pieces of the split back together? [18:17] shawn_: what was teh output of ls -l / | grep DATA [18:17] maynards-girl: cat file1 file2 file3 > file [18:17] russlar: drw-rw---- 3shawn admin 4096 2009-10-17 12:43 [18:17] grawity, thanks! [18:17] shawn_: sudo chmod 770 /DATA [18:17] shawn_: directories need execute permission [18:17] grawity, supersede host-name, thanks ;) [18:18] saftsack: No, 'supersede' only makes it use the one in /etc/hostname instead of the one from DHCP. [18:18] saftsack: But doesn't affect /etc/hosts in any way. [18:18] shawn_: and that makes it so only you (and other members of teh admin group) have access to /DATA [18:19] russlar: Okay that works I can write files to it now [18:19] I need advice, my network services are up but don't work for the user, only for root... anyone? [18:19] saftsack: But dunno, maybe you'll find a way to make it work... In any case, sed -i "s/^\\([0-9.]\\+\\) \\(foohost #dhcp\\)$/$NEW_IP \2/" /etc/hosts, if you're gonna script it. [18:19] ryguy, seems that something is wrong with the grub.conf file... [18:20] Akuma_s: I cant seem to even find the grub.conf file [18:20] Akuma_s: Im on the live cd right now, should I mount my filesystem and do sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg ? [18:21] ryguy, which version of ubuntu? [18:21] hey there [18:21] hi. the sound volume of my ubuntu system is too low. i already changed the sttings of the mixer to the max but still, too low. is there a way of changing the volume? [18:21] ibuclaw: karmic [18:21] i have a fresh install of karmic daily and i have a delay upon opening any tcp connection [18:21] How can I tell what program Im using to run my FTP server I forget which it is [18:21] it resolves the correct ip for a hostname [18:22] "fgrun-1.5.1" wie installiert man das auf ubuntu? [18:22] but then waits like 15-30 seconds before it connects [18:22] or before it gets a reply [18:22] !de | fefi [18:22] fefi: 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. [18:22] shawn_: Find out what process is listening on the ftp port -- sudo fuser -n tcp ftp; you'll get a PID. [18:22] grawity, thanks ;) [18:22] ryguy, Better try to use the backup file if you have it at hand... [18:22] ryguy, I think all karmic support questions are still to be discussed in #ubuntu+1 until release date (or somewhere near before) [18:22] grawity, what means #dhcp in your script? [18:22] I installed xampp but it wont display the gui all I get is "it works" [18:22] is there an iso with some additional packages?

[21:07] MrSchmo, sometimes [21:07] Slade: definitely [21:08] howdy [21:08] is there an upgrade guide, or even better, an upgrade tool? [21:08] Slade: What do you want to upgrade? [21:08] MrSchmo, I used to do a small farm but the electric bill got to be too much, and my GPU was never that stable when they went to that so I gave up [21:08] I need help, I did an upgrade and now the display is all stretched out and the display manager is not correctly, how do I fix this [21:08] !upgrade | Slade [21:08] Slade: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [21:08] Slade: update-manager -d [21:08] kevdog: ubuntu 8.04 to ubuntu latest [21:08] Slade: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade ??

It sucks when this happens but seems IMO to be the rule and not the exception [21:10] what is the apt-get command to clean up broken and unnecessary packages? === Abracadabr4 is now known as Abracadabra [21:10] Slade, better you get a fresh install [21:10] apt-get clean?

It's not gonna...break....anything is it?

[21:44] Iimitk: Dunno, my knowledge is also just learning by doing... One other nifty trick I know that also works for anything you run in terminal. While an app like gedit is running in the terminal (so the terminal is blocked), you can do ctrl + z and it will stop. Then when you type "bg" into the term, the program you just stopped will continue running, but in the background, so you can use your terminal for other things.

[21:51] anyone got experience? [21:51] n8tuser: I've got a partitioned drive. One side for Vista (soon to be Windows 7), and the other side for Ubuntu. I was just wondering if it was still possible to learn VB 2008 in Ubuntu and then pull it over onto the Windows side and run it. A friend of mine wants me to learn Visual Basic 2008 for him for some strange reason. [21:51] firdau5: cisco makes routers not computers ;) [21:51] n8tuser: I used dig & nslookup and it turns out that both of them return the OLD name server and they haven't been updated yet. Is that because of Ubuntu or because of the DNS system in the world? === ardian is now known as ard1an [21:52] teknozwizard-> dont know how you learn things without testing, but certainly you can learn from the book i guess, not sure if you'd be able to debug without running it [21:52] teknozwizard: look into monodevelop [21:52] gunther: i am a beginner, so not sure where to go in that respect [21:52] kbp its the dns server you are using that has not received updates [21:52] hey all... anyone know of any type of bluetooth program that can be used as a replacement to this: http://www.bonphi.com/bh-0102010.html [21:52] erUSUL> firdau5: cisco makes routers not computers ;) <---- this is mission impossible..

[21:53] Slade: depends on your net connection. it has to dl a lot of data [21:53] by this i mean that two monitors really behave as one (as apposed to twinview where they work closely but not as one) [21:53] n8tuser: thank you :) [21:53] * AutoMatriX bye folks [21:53] firdau5: He was saying it nicely. What he said translates into - Cant be done because you'd have to completely reconfigure the hardware in the Cisco router to make it a computer, which probably won't happen, and so it's best to just use real computers, and not try to make computers out of routers. [21:54] Slade: i usually use the alternate disk dl via torrent to save myself some of that data [21:54] guys, can I download the usb-creator.exe from somewhere? it's not on the studio install dvd [21:54] Gunther: a language I can use to develop educational games and tools for teachers [21:54] and I need to have a working usb stick with ubuntu studio installer === jade is now known as Guest79134 [21:54] hello!

[21:55] judibeefl-> many too choose from, python is one, with qt or tk for graphics [21:55] I just installed ubuntu and i can't open any programs why? [21:55] judibeefl: Why would you want to do that? The teachers in the US are slow and lax. They lack the ambition they once had and students are graduated high school now dumber than when they first began. What makes you think teachers will care what you develop for them? [21:55] adamonline45-> is the existing network really 1gig?

[21:58] erUSUL: I'm quickly forgetting about Wine, to be honest. Simply because I'm finding out that Ubuntu is so much cooler and much better than Windows ever was or shall be. [21:58] What is the type of relationship between Debian and Ubuntu? Is Ubuntu simply based off of Debian and built on top of it? I'm trying to figure out the difference.

[21:59] teknozwizard: how much bandwidth do you think IRC requires? [21:59] queso_: When I was toying with the differences, I mainly just saw graphic differences and slight differences in functionality. [21:59] and how much does downloading a CD image? [22:00] !debian | queso_ [22:00] queso_: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! [22:00] Saviq: Iunno. Never paid too much attention. Never peaked my interest too much. I'd say the fastest way to get another DVD is just to go to your local Borders or Barnes & Nobles and get the DVD outta the mag. [22:00] :D [22:01] yo [22:01] teknozwizard: unless it's 11 PM and the nearest Barnes & Noble is about 1.5 thousand kilometers away [22:01] queso_: Debian Stable is well stable, meaning a bit behind, with the kernel and such. Ubuntu is based on the testing Debian repo and then does it's own changes or something like that. [22:01] and any other blank media is far enough [22:01] hi guys [22:01] not to mention a shop that's open at this hour [22:01] i got a problem regarding my wirlesslan interface [22:01] well, thanks for nothing [22:01] sebsebseb: Aah, okay, thanks for explaining that [22:01] its gone after installing and delting ndiswrapper [22:01] how can i reenter it [22:01] queso_: Yeah Debain can't even do Ext4 yet as far as I know, unless something special is done to it [22:01] erUSUL: what happens if the internet connection gets interrupted during the package download... will it auto-resume? [22:02] !enter | Chubakka84 [22:02] Chubakka84: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [22:02] xcuse me [22:02] Slade: it should but it never happened to me [22:02] Slade: I know I'm not erUSUL, but it should auto-resume. Mine did, problem was it corrupted some of the files. It's like - for me at least - it just skipped right over certain files and resumed downloading at a different spot. === jade is now known as Guest43571 [22:02] man, i'm so excited to be getting ubuntu back on my workstation! Using virtualbox with dedicated raid-0 raptors 8) [22:03] erUSUL: ah, it's just cause im connected to the wrong wireless router,a nd the signal strength is low [22:03] so this is gonna take FOREVER... [22:03] * Slade misses his wired cable internet connection [22:03] Slade: I just learned about that kind of stuff! Just because the signal strength is low doesn't mean a poor connection. [22:03] teknowizard: which magazine ? [22:03] 9 hrs left for download.... [22:04] Can someone point me to a document that describes the process that takes place when you do a distribution upgrade? Like from 9.04 to 9.10, what happens? Does it only upgrade those packages already installed, does it install new packages? Which settings does it wipe clean and which does it save, and how does it decide, etc.? [22:04] nt8user: thank you for your helpful in put [22:05] man i'm still on 6.06 on my server... [22:05] Ugh, feel like a mean guy... [22:05] 6.06 -- awesome [22:05] Some kid was just asking me about using ubuntu and Linux... [22:05] !ot | evilaim [22:05] So he asks if there are any good torrent sites for downloading the software... [22:05] evilaim: isn't ubuntu Linux?

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [22:05] (ubuntu is windows 8 pre-release) [22:05] Ya, but I was talking about the kernel and all that [22:06] ok?

[22:19] _Tristan: Yes, with freewins [22:19] can i start the launcher with a short key? [22:19] If I wanted to try some different linux distributions, what's the best virtual machine to do that with? [22:19] trism: I mean some packages installed with apt-get include dependencies and such -- I don't think this list actually provides the packages themselves, but rather the contents of the packages -- or maybe I'm way off base [22:19] how i change forums again? been a while since I have used IRC [22:19] queso_: virtualbox [22:19] the launcher itself owkrs [22:20] anyone else have recent problems with the 4965AGN for N draft networks only?

[22:21] erUSUL: okay, thanks :) [22:21] tcoenraad, what's the difference between a launcher and a shortcut? [22:21] my shortkey is CTRL+ALT+= and it's binded to 'bash switcher.sh' [22:21] sorry, meant short key [22:21] zamarax-> what do you have? i didnt quite follow [22:21] guntbert: if your there, I fixed my display problem, I used the program "ubuntu tweak" to add the "Ubuntu X (Unstable)" repo which allowed me to update to the newer unstable xorg drivers, which fix my problem [22:21] Hey all, I just installed the new linux kernel (2.6.28-15) from the Update Manager, and upon reboot I have no graphic acceleration for my proprietary radeon drivers I installed. It doesn't even detect them, so I'm currently in the old kernel now. Any suggestions on how to get graphics acceleration with the new kernel? :) [22:21] kevdog: I believe that command should list every installed package, whether you manually installed it, or it was a dependency [22:22] trism: Im now trying to format the output you gave me so it will remove the newlines or carriage returns so I can list all the packages on one line or so -- so that I can feed it to apt-get [22:22] tcoenraad, try replacing bash with sh [22:22] Good evening - I have questions about UNR - can I ask them here or is there a specific room I should rather go to? [22:23] sry accidently closed the window. [22:23] lol >_< [22:23] kevdog alsoi might try aptitude show [22:23] N8tuser I have the intel 4965AGN wireless card which I know how horrible support in the kernel, and as of 2.6.22 everything was working fine, well recently 2 days ago all wireless N network do not appear in the network manager, however all G networks do [22:24] could some one tell me if this is throwing out errors because its an old script or because I'm missing something http://pastebin.com/dad81b69 ? [22:24] @trijntje doesn't make any difference [22:24] Hello, I am trying to bind keyboard shortcuts in gnome (System -> Preferences -> Keyboard shortcuts) and it does not let me use super ("windows" key) in combination with other, is there any way to force that? [22:24] zamarax-> am not even sure there are open source drivers for N... you may have to use ndiswrapper with windows drivers [22:24] ShapeShifter499: glad it worked for you :) [22:25] tcoenraad, in that case I dont know, sorry [22:25] does anyone know a workaround for none sse cpu and nvidia cards? i have an athlon i cant play videos coz i have a none sse cpu chip WTH? help anyone? [22:25] jebblue: show what? [22:25] hrmm, I can give that a try, it just doesn't make sense how it was working and now not, I will explore the ndiswrapper route [22:25] thanks [22:25] again: how can i make a short key that launches a bash-script? [22:25] because every time i try it just gives a popup of a terminal [22:26] Soo... does anyone know why I have no graphic acceleration on kernel 2.6.28-15 but still have it on 2.6.28-11? :) [22:26] tcoenraad-> do you have a working popup now? [22:26] Gaming4JC: -11 has the apropiate module -15 does not ? [22:26] kevdog: you should just be able to do a sudo apt-get install `cat package_list.txt` or whatever you called the file [22:26] @n8tuser no, it just popups with a blank screen, and shut itself down [22:27] Ho do I get identified as a user for a chat group? [22:27] Gaming4JC: what graphjic card and driver are you using and how you installed said driver ? [22:27] i mux some video streams with ffmpeg but it freezes after the length of the shortest clip - what could i do? tnx [22:27] tcoenraad-> do you have a working popup now? a working one, not one you are trying to create [22:27] Gaming4JC: probably/maybe, because your graphics card isn't set up for the newer kernel [22:27] kevdog: without any special formatting...now, what it will do with already installed packages in the list, I don't know [22:27] something like just a gnome-terminal? [22:27] erUSUL: I installed the graphics driver using proprietary drivers from ATI Radeon. [22:27] Hi all! Bash question. I have an app that takes a byte. I want to pass a string one char at a time. How do I do that? [22:27] @n8tuseryes that works [22:27] hi, can someone help me? [22:27] trism: I think with already installed packages it will just skip them? Wont it? [22:28] kevdog: yep, just tried it [22:28] Gaming4JC: from the ati website ? or using the ones in the repositories ? [22:28] ok, does anybody know how to bind super in combination (for example super+1) as a keyboard shortcut in gnome? [22:28] Kallel_1, Not until you ask a question. [22:28] erUSUL: So it is possible it's not configured, yet it says it's working properly from the catylst control panel even though it's not. ATI's website, the one in the repos didn't work at all. [22:28] tcoenraad-> then right click to see properties and copy similar to point to the script [22:28] dsnyders: there is #bash for such questions :) [22:28] Anyone know if there is a way to have the damn nvidia driver feed the second head even if the second head is "turned off"? Its a real pain. I have a customer I gave a ubuntu system but if his TV is not on (well, the "switch" is selecting a different source of his tv) when Ubuntu boots then the driver reconfigures itself and the tv twinview "clone" is disabled needing manual intervention to re-enable it. [22:28] i did, still gives no result [22:28] kevdog: you may need to delete missing packages from the list by hand though, it was complaining with my test file about a couple package name typos (and exiting) [22:28] guntbert, Thanks. I'll pop over there. [22:29] Gaming4JC: you have to rinstall the drivers averytime the kernel changes ( maybe there is a way to automate this i dunno) [22:29] well, I changed x.org video configuration to 'radeonhd' instead of glfx [22:29] and now... I can't see Ubuntu [22:29] ATI radeon HD 3650 [22:29] shortcut: bash switcher.sh [22:29] shortkey: bash switcher.sh [22:29] in xbindkeys clicking 'run action' does the action it supposed to, but when i press the keys... [22:29] I tried to dpkg-reconfig , but still [22:29] not working [22:30] Kallel_1: Are you able to get into recovery mode (via grub boot menu) and select reconfigure Xorg? :) [22:30] Kallel_1-> did you save a back up copy? [22:30] trism: I'm trying to run the list through my machine now -- Came back stating no new packages needed to be installed [22:30] yes I tried to reconfigure it, but not working [22:30] hmm you'll need to uninstall it. [22:30] n8tuser: no :( [22:31] *sounds like a bad sign* [22:31] kevdog: that should be true, since they're all already installed right? [22:31] Kallel_1-> boot from livecd and copy the xorg.conf file pehaps? [22:31] Kallel_1: Do you know the name of the package you installed? It is possible to remove it from any open terminal, that's how I repaired mine after installing the wrong drivers. :P [22:31] trism: Yes -- got a name of a package that I can add to the list that I might not have? I want to manually add one and see what happens [22:31] okay, as suggested earlier, I have dreaimg.nbh on my sd card, and have tried to downgrade donut G1 to a rootable format - but when i boot to flash dreaimg, it says no image, do I need to rename it perhaps? [22:32] err >_> wrong screen. [22:32] erUSUL: How might I reinstall the drivers for my ATI Radeon btw? It says it's already installed so that kind of makes it strange. [22:32] kevdog: I used zsnes, someone mentioned it earlier [22:32] Would making an ubuntu distribution dedicated to surfing for porn anonymously violate the GPL license? (we are going to call it "Lubeuntu" btw) [22:32] Gaming4JC: i really dunno. never used ati installer. with the nvidia installer you just rerun it === Commie_Cary is now known as Lenin_Cat [22:33] stinky, I find 9.10 works fine for that [22:33] Gaming4JC: hmmm, I think I only reconfigured the x.org, cause the openGL windowed kept blinking [22:34] Hi [22:34] hi [22:34] !ot | stinky [22:34] stinky: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [22:34] Kallel_1: It sounds to me like you installed the wrong files, and do to that it keeps grabbing them. :\ You'll need to get the name of the packages and remove them, I had a code some place that did that for me... [22:34] g2g [22:34] I'm an ubuntu user but also a student ... what is the difrence between ubuntu and edubuntu? [22:34] bye [22:35] cya [22:35] i mux some video streams with ffmpeg but it freezes after the length of the shortest clip - what could i do? tnx [22:35] Dreamwalker: selection of packages in default install [22:35] Edubuntu is not a version of Ubuntu [22:35] Dreamwalker: packages [22:35] trism: Added the nitendo emulator package zsnes: And guess what --- definitely picked up the package and is now installing it!!

Is there a less intensive torrent program?

Reinstalling ATI drivers for the new kernel even tho the old one alreadly has them installed. :P [22:59] yes i have [23:00] tcoenraad, well, do this anyway to make sure -- then change the keyboard shortcut to call just ~/switcher.sh -- rather than 'bash switcher.sh' [23:00] tcoenraad, and you shouldn't be getting any popups - for a terminal atleast. [23:00] didn't make the difference [23:01] no it's more that the program opens and closes immediately thereafter [23:01] * falkinski is testing [23:01] tcoenraad, what program?

[23:16] unop if i use that my bash file is being executed the wrong way, cause bash handles if/else in an other manner than sh does (which will be used when u do'nt give any options) [23:17] tcoenraad, that's why you make sure the script has the right shebang, for bash [23:17] tcoenraad, #!/bin/bash [23:18] though it starts with that shebang ? [23:18] tcoenraad, ^^ make sure that it your first line on the script [23:18] tcoenraad, yes, the shebang ensure the script is run by bash and not sh [23:18] Hi, I want to mount an ISO image file in Ubuntu but I can't get it to work.

[23:20] @Billiard yes [23:21] macgeek21: also you burned the image to the cd, not the added the .iso file onto the cd [23:21] @billiard yes i used imgaburn to burn the image to a dvd [23:22] macgeek21: i would think dvd would work also but i always used a cd, and i g2g cya [23:22] does Ubuntu 9.04 recognize usb 1.1 devices? [23:22] I'm trying to run jack, but it's telling me "`default' server already active" [23:22] gostoff: are you using the adobe flash player? (package flashplugin-nonfree) [23:22] why is it doing that? [23:23] trism: yes im using adobe flash 10 [23:23] helo . wt is better way to backup my files with rsync??? in other words, wt is the commands to keep all original infomations of the files? [23:23] ZoeyMarie-> what does that do? what does it serve? [23:23] tcoenraad, and you're absolutely sure the command you gave was ~/switcher.sh # not just switcher.sh ? [23:23] gostoff: no idea then [23:23] unop yes, i mistyped that part [23:23] trism: okay, thanks anyway [23:23] n8tuser: jack is an audio server... or something like that. :/ sorry I can't explain it better. [23:24] where can I find load time options for modules when you modprobe? [23:25] that is... a list of the options for a specific module [23:25] trism: Thank you! [23:25] Tarrok, there's an app called dirvish - backs up your files in a vault, uses rsync to give you a sort of time-machine i.e. you can revert a file to what it was say a year ago, etc [23:25] got a stupid question: when i look at how much space I have used on a hard drive it shows up as 248 Gb but all the files on the Hard Drive only add up to 228 GB can anyone tell me why ? === spc_ is now known as sc === sc is now known as spc [23:26] tcoenraad, i'm not sure then -- just make sure your command it right -- and that this same command runs from the terminal [23:27] m_law: I believe some space is 'wasted' for the partitioning information .. 'inodes' ? [23:27] zaoul1: it can also depend on block size [23:27] Hello all [23:27] trism: Sorry for bothering you again, but is there a limit to how many ISO's you can mount at one time? [23:27] ZoeyMarie-> when you check the ps for process statuses does it already shows up? [23:27] m_law: The answer really depends on how you are looking at "how much space" is used. There are three important effects. sparse files are larger than on-disk size. small files can pad out to a minimum block size. Hard linked files can appear twice in the filesystem but once on the disk. [23:27] unop, you were very helpfull [23:27] zaoul1: I have a 20gb diffrence [23:28] :S [23:28] I got a question is it better for my Core2Duo T5800 to install Ubuntu 64Bits or 32Bits ? [23:28] n8tuser: ps? [23:28] unop if i try the short cut '~/switcher.sh' it gives the error 'file doesn't exist'? [23:28] unop, ;) [23:28] FireVisor-> not that am aware of, perhaps not enuff inodes..buts thats.. [23:28] ZoeyMarie-> yes, to check for processes running on your system, man ps [23:28] n8tuser: when I type ps into terminal, it isn't there. [23:28] stroyan: what's the most reliable way I can look at how much space i am taking up on my hd [23:28] jack isn't there, I mean. [23:29] m_law: you are looking at df -h ? [23:29] n8tuser: it started saying that after it crashed the last time that I ran it. [23:29] ZoeyMarie-> okay, but it still give you a status of what again? another instance is running? [23:29] i tried the 64bit of Ubuntu and noticed alot of packages haven't been updated to 64bit so i stuck with the 32bit no problens yet [23:29] n8tuser: k, will there be problems when trying to install a game that makes you change CD's? [23:29] m_law: The "df" command is good about showing how much space on disk is used. [23:29] "default server is already active" [23:29] ZoeyMarie-> look around /var/lock and remove a lock file there if any [23:29] hey all, i'm trying to change my "read only" ntfs external HD to read/write and change ownership too, but nothing I do works. I've tried using the GUI. I think I need to install a ntfs driver, but unsure where to get the right one for ubuntu 9.04 [23:30] FireVisor-> i dont know, i have not installed games [23:30] Does anyone know of a how to/tutorial for creating a deb source package? [23:30] m_law, probably file system overhead. like the file system would be more for 50 10 kg files than one 50 kg file [23:30] Guest34211: fire up synaptics and get ntfsprogs [23:30] ZoeyMarie-> rather look in /var/run [23:30] n8tuser: the only file in there is .ramfs... should I delete that? [23:31] Guest34211: well [23:31] ZoeyMarie-> where ? in /var/run? [23:31] I'm having some problems installing ubuntu onto an old computer that was reformatted ages ago and just lying around. It doesn't seem to be able to boot from USB and the CD drive doesn't even seem to be connected, despite having power [23:31] zaoul1: I have it already [23:31] in /var/lock... var/run has a lot [23:31] are there any alternative installation options? [23:31] Guest34211: ntfsfix is a no go? [23:31] ZoeyMarie-> then look for the pid that matches your jack [23:32] zaoul1: no go [23:32] mstk-> old mobos dont support booting from usb [23:32] FireVisor: the limit would be based on the number of loop devices available. from what I can tell, the max is 8 [23:32] Guest34211: where is it mounted? what are the perms on the directory? how did you mount it? [23:32] FireVisor: by default unless you increase it in the loop driver [23:32] trism: Thanks, 8 should be more than I'll ever need anyway [23:33] n8tuser: what's pid? process id? I'm not seeing anything in var/run that makes me think it's jack... the .ramfs is in there, too... shrugs... ? [23:33] n8tuser - in the BIOS, there's a selection to prioritize places to boot from. There are actually four different USB options. USB-HDD, USB-CDROM, among others [23:33] none of them work [23:33] ZoeyMarie-> i dont know, look in the help pages of jack perhaps? [23:33] unop if i try the short cut '~/switcher.sh' it gives the error 'file doesn't exist'? [23:34] mstk, sometimes external usb drives aren't under the usb-hdd option but need to be configured as a hard drive [23:34] mstk yes, the usb drive has to be formatted into one of those that your mobo recognizes, common in the old days is usb-hdd zip i believe [23:34] like on the hp i have at work i need to set the primary disk to my Kingston Datatraveler and boot from HDD [23:35] n8tuser and log - anywhere i can look to find instructions for that? === Brenden_ is now known as Brenden` [23:35] hello, i am new to Linux and working with my first installation of Ubuntu. I have accidentally turned off graphical login and i am now stuck in the command-line interface. [23:35] mstk only google is one i know of :P [23:35] it's going to be specific to p much every individual mobo [23:35] i'd say trial and error. [23:35] Has anyone known 9.04 to be problematic for usb devices on old hardware, and that 8.04 might work better? [23:35] n8tuser - haha thanks. [23:35] unop if i try the short cut '~/switcher.sh' it gives the error 'file doesn't exist'? [23:36] Krahazik-> re-install once more, dont take that much time, a learning process anyways [23:36] so ther eis not way to restor the GUI from the command line then? [23:36] startx? [23:37] Krahazik-> for being new, we will be spending tons of hours .. so may as well re-install its too new for you anyways [23:37] Krahazik: There is a way. But it would depend on how you turned the GUI off. You could try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart". [23:38] I'll give that a try. [23:38] hi, can anyone give me some pointers on how to track down a stuttering audio problem [23:38] I need help === ensarman is now known as lrevilla [23:39] Neither Update manager nor add/remove works [23:39] hi guys [23:39] on Update manager I get this [23:39] that looks like it might have done the trick [23:39] Could not initialize the package information An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.

"disc 3" is the name. here is the ls for the subdirectory. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/295753/. I mounted it through the GUI. [23:40] I need help! [23:40] Hello, I'm trying to run a script as a particular user, and I'm using 'sudo -u someuser command', and the shell responds "env: -u: No such file or directory".

[23:41] how do i fix this ^ [23:41] Guest34211: what is the output of: mount ? [23:42] zaoul1: root is the user for the directory, "99" is the user for the subdirectories. I want to change the owner to "a" [23:42] fcf_user9: I think you just need to run as root. So run "sudo apt-get ..." instead of "apt-get ..." [23:42] I have an ATI card and I want to install the driver. I have dialup so I want to get the link of the proprietary driver from Syntapic so I can download it from the cyber cafe [23:42] what's the name of the ATI driver package in Synaptic?

I just install nvidia-71-glx and i need to run sudo nvidia-xconfig but terminal reports there is no such command, what is wrong [23:44] just a quick clarification on this wiki page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows : "Download the ALTERNATE ubuntu-installer CD from http://www.ubuntulinux.org/download/ and save the .iso file in the root directory of first partition of your hard drive." [23:44] by this, they mean C:\, right? [23:45] *YAWN* [23:45] fcf_user9: you need to be logged in as root [23:45] DeathCrawler: log` which driver to download now? [23:45] fcf_user9, are you doing this with the graphical update manager? [23:45] DeathCrawler: I'm confused [23:45] magical, just install fglrx from the repositories [23:45] ops, was magngo [23:45] Hello all. I just install nvidia-71-glx and i need to run sudo nvidia-xconfig but terminal reports there is no such command, what is wrong [23:45] jedc: idk i'm new to ubuntu [23:45] magngo, i'd go with the stable ones but hey , if ppls say fglrx works fine go for that [23:45] tired evil? [23:45] joaopinto: thnx [23:46] cody_: apt-get install apt-file: apt-file update; apt-file search nvidia-xconfig [23:46] fcf_user9, you are not typing something into a terminal window to do this though, right? [23:46] Terminal window? [23:46] jedc is awesome at this thanks [23:46] joaopinto: but is instable [23:46] netbrain: No package with the name nvidia-xconfig [23:46] fcf_user9 - like, doing this through text and command-line, not with windows and buttons [23:46] DeaCon, it is what ? [23:46] zaoul1: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/295756/ [23:46] what joapinto [23:46] DeathCrawler, I have been using fglrx without any issues [23:47] zaoul1: btw. I'm on a Mac machine [23:47] está? [23:47] ok I got back into the GUI but when I reboot I am back to the command line. [23:47] I am trying to run "sudo -i -u munin /usr/share/munin/munin-update" but I get "env: -i: No such file or directory". How to fix? Thanks [23:47] fcf_user9, ok, go to Applications->Accessories->Terminal and click on it === Slade is now known as xrandr [23:47] is it really unstable [23:47] k [23:47] jedc: now what [23:47] DeathCrawler, if you need 3d, you need fglrx, and like I said, it is quite stable for me [23:47] netbrain: But i know there is because nvidia-71-glx says i need to run it [23:47] unsupported by canonical at least. [23:47] fcf_user9, try typing "sudo apt-get update" and then pressing enter (in the terminal window) [23:48] i have problems [23:48] canonical is good at least better than windows [23:48] I am trying to run "sudo -i -u munin /usr/share/munin/munin-update" but I get "env: -i: No such file or directory".

[23:49] cody_: apt-get install apt-file: apt-file update; apt-file search nvidia-xconfig [23:49] jedc i have a question [23:49] Krahazik: Perhaps you changed the default run level. Or perhaps you removed the gdm startup from the default run level. Do you have any idea how you disabled the GUI? [23:49] netbrain: Oh, okay [23:50] zaoul1: sorry, here's my paste. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/295760/ [23:50] netbrain: Ill do that after envyvg installs === _MrApple_ is now known as _MrsApple_ [23:50] anyone?

[23:50] You guys need like 5 support channels [23:50] netbrain: Im desperate to intall the nvidia proprietory driver [23:50] because of so many users [23:50] fcf_user9: The scary question is "how did you get into that situation?" It may be that you could get the apt-get system working again by copying a backup of the /var/lib/dpkg/status file into place. [23:50] canoncial wont work [23:50] netbrain: I know that envy is iffy at best [23:51] #ubuntu [23:51] stroyan: Ubuntu stopped responding [23:51] cody_: then dont use envy.. === bruno is now known as Guest79881 [23:51] Can someone help me with a wine problem?
