knoppieskrummlauf, are your speakers connected to your computer with a USB interface? or are they just normal speakers with a stereo jack?00:04
Treehvlt I have a Mac keyboard, maybe that's part of it00:04
thijs_vlt, ok, i put a static address, however if i type sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart it tells me [OK], but when i right click on the network manager tool and look at the info it still puts everything at 0.0.0.000:04

trismroger2: or just go to Settings/Repositories in Synaptic00:12
tech_in trying not to sound confusing...running wammu via the cli under su, prompts this error00:12

vltMrSchmo: iftop and ifstat are fine00:13
zcat[1]effeietsanders: open a terminal and dmesg to find out what your USB got detected as (eg /dev/sdb) then type "sudo gparted /dev/sdb" to start the partitioner.. you can do this by command line but gparted is much easier00:14
SpudsterQ for anyone: Ubuntu is only finding one of my six processors?  Ideas?00:14
vltSpudster: SMP kernel?00:14
effeietsanderszcat[1]: I already launched gparted00:14

effeietsandersand it is indeed /dev/sdb00:15

HalitechLEE20, ok, not sure on windows 7 for the steps but you want to defrag windows at least twice, then use the windows tools to resize the windows partition then use the ubuntu live cd to resize your ubuntu partition00:38
Halitechzcat[1], that would work if he hasn't installed much stuff already00:38
CelrocBy the way, I've also tried sudo dpkg --configure -a, and that didn't do the trick either00:38
LEE20what happens to the original installation tehn00:38
andrilfound it!!!!!00:38

ax03dcHello. I have a question about perl and C. Under what occasions would it be better to use C than perl for network programming?00:40
zcat[1]'fixmbr' won't actually help you -at all- in your goal of making more space for ubuntu00:40
mzawieskaany1 good with nevidia configuration?00:40
HalitechLEE20, ok, reinstall isn't an issue then if you want to go that way but I would still defrag your windows partition before you do anything else and maybe make the free space00:40

LEE20what about if i fixmbr .get back to original settings then start again00:41
mzawieskascunizi check pw :D00:42
zcat[1]LEE20: you could just run the install CD again, have it resize windows further, quit out of the automatic install and go back to the partitoner and remove all the ubuntu ones and reinstall in the 'bigger' free space... no need to fix mbr or anything, the installer will figure it out00:42
HalitechLEE20, you will still have your existing ubuntu install there, just not accessable00:42

Celrocroger2: There might be a setting to display All Open-Source Packages, if you are using the Add/Remove Programs package manager00:43
zcat[1]LEE20: I'd start by booting into windows and defragging, perhaps even resize the partiton using the windows disk management... then boot the ubuntu install cd and do a 'manual' partitioning, get rid of everything but windows NTFS partitions and remake the Ubuntu ones how you want them00:44

Geekneeusvelko: What is your good reason?01:32
knoppiesKorlis, have you searched the ubuntu forums for a fix? I would assume you looking for drivers.01:32
velkoLopta|t_a|, in the short term - compile iotop and sort out the problems of the server. in the long term - replace ubuntu by debian or bsd01:33

stephansvox, ok I get it... they win I guess...01:49
mzawieskathis msg appears when i type gksudo nvidia-settings in terminal01:49
d9500stephans: it's not so much that you'd have to crack any drm to play the hi-def videos, it's that the mpaa or other agents acting on behalf of the studios may have thereatened graphics card manufacturers with legal action if they provide hardware decoding of movie files on an operating system that doesn't verify "protected patch" (approved graphics card, approved connector, approved monitor, etc.) before playing hi-def content.01:49
mzawieskaYou 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.01:49
voxstephans: a solution is being worked on, but it's a while off01:50
d9500nonetheless, nvidia's binary driver does, i think, provide hardware decoding of h264 video, in presumably any resoilution, via the "vdpau" library, which should be present in the lastest nvidia binary driver packages.01:50

knoppiesramxzero, whats your problem02:07
ubuntu_what is a Wubi?02:07
d9500ubuntu_: yes, wubi will do that, or, should you choose to actually istall ubuntu from the live cd,in most cases, ubuntu's installer will automatically set up a dual-boot for you, provided that you do not try to install ubuntu on the same partition as your vista install02:07

wrapsterDaZ: its a 64bit machine.. so i need extra pkgs is it?02:09
knoppiesubuntu_, in the ubuntu installer, I think there is an aption to resize your windows partition, and then create a new one for ubuntu, but I would backup all the data on your windows install, or use a seperate HDD/partition02:09
DaZno02:09
jatsubuntu_: yes.02:09

ramxzerodunno what version have to download02:10
kismetwhy is banshee using up to 100% of my cpu over 30 sec if i switch track02:10
d9500ubuntu: right. if you have a second hard drive in the machine, then you can install ubuntu to that hard drive during the installation process. the gui installer will ask you what partition to install ubuntu on, and you can select the second hard drive. if you only have one hard drive, then you will need to resize your vista partition.02:11
HBXwhats the command to upgrade02:11
knoppieskismet, im not sure. look on ubuntu forums, if you cant find an answer, use a different player.02:11

GeekneeusmQQsh: Be careful though02:20
GeekneeusmQQsh: I'm assuming you're using gnome and nautilus for that command as it's the default with ubuntu02:21

DaZGeekneeus: people here recommend gksudo over sudo for window apps :f02:22
Geekneeusscunizi: That wouldn't make any different, gksudo is mainly for menu items02:22

itaihi, i'm trying to play a UDF dvd on Intrepid , but Ubuntu doesn't even see the disc (i can play normal DVDs ,no problem)02:52
keatonctmjr: I was hoping I wouldn't have to... But yeah, lemme give mplayer a whirl. One sec.02:52
sterlinOFF TOPIC: What tech podcasts would you recommend? ( I like diggation, this week in tech, security now). Thanks02:52
headrxIs there a way to have a program open to a certain size by default02:53
itaiheadrx, there is probabaly a config file you can define the size in. look for a dot file in your /home02:53
Jordan_Uheadrx: Devilspie02:53
a_soreau: I went into the file system and found some files in /dev. is that what I'm looking for?02:53

alexander_Hey, I'm using openGEU based off ubuntu 8.0.4. I tired to install XMMS2 using synaptic but it's not showing up anywhere02:54
renmqqqqtyler_d: should i install a particular package of libstdc++6 ?02:54
sterlinarquebus: thanks02:54
tyler_d1renmqqqq: so symlink your glibc env variable to what its looking for?02:54
arquebussterlin: np02:54

renmqqqqi'll give that a shot02:54
Billiarditai: pastebin your fstab02:54
renmqqqqshoulda thought of that *doh*02:54
headrxitai: im not seeing any .file in my /home02:54

headrxitai: no dice02:55
renmqqqqlet me check.02:55
tyler_d1renmqqqq: the problem your having is a compile error, you should just be able to install glibc /glibc++ and go to town....02:55
headrxit didnt do anything02:55
renmqqqqi think i even tried installed gcc-snapshot to fix it02:56
Jordan_Uitai: Why are you still using intrepid?02:56
dukzHi guys, I'm trying to compile netatalk but have buid dependency errors, I can't seem to find the packages that I need. It says broken packages. Uname: Linux ubuntu-andrew 2.6.28-16-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 20 19:48:32 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux02:56
renmqqqqso it should be relatively up to date02:56
renmqqqqmaybe too up to date even.02:56
tsukasa_hey i have a ntfs partition that's been repartitioned via fdisk but not reformatted (eg the inodes should still be there)... is there a way i can remount the drive?02:56
itaiJordan_U, afraid of upgrading02:56
tyler_d1renmqqqq: skulltag is open source, and supported by a single guy.... so if it doesn't work I would say don't be 2 upset.. he prolly has a full-time job on top of it all02:56
renmqqqqerrrr... I don't believe it's OS actually02:57
headrxi want a full time job02:57
itaiheadrx, i mean like .gedit or something02:57
ctmjrkeaton: you installed all the media stuff from medibuntu?02:57
renmqqqqi know one of the devs and I've asked about the source02:57
renmqqqqthey use proprietary stuff for some of the game, although it's based upon zdoom02:57
keatonctmjr: I've got the repository added, ubuntu-restricted-extras installed, and all packages up to date.02:57
itaiBilliard, http://paste.ubuntu.com/301711/ thanks02:57

itaiBilliard, i dont actually know what UDF is , but i only have problems playing DVDs that were burnt using Vista02:59
a_someone please tell me how to find the name of my physical device in /dev and an empty directory in my file system on which to mount that file system02:59
Billiarditai: do you get an error when you attempt to mount it with the mount command?02:59
itaiBilliard, havent tried02:59

thedude42fabian_, so when you plug it in, do you see it in dmesg?03:17
knoppiesmUrshEd, I cant remember if it is case sensitive, but try to match case with your yahoo account. And it might pay to log into your yahoo using a web browser, to make sure that the account details are correct03:17

* Psibottu gives you a special blessing under the table ;)03:30

eidoscunizi, i was hoping ubuntu had something similar03:31
ghjn03:31
scunizieido: nice.. there's lots of references on the web. maybe the gimp channel will have more people with tablet experience03:31
Psibottughj, did you seriously just write "n"?03:31
Barridusi'm noticing an icon in the notify area (by where the wifi signal and battery meter) that looks like a padlock and mousing over it says something like "drop all elevated priviledges".  what does that mean and why did it go away03:31
thedude42fabian_, so if it's the size of the volume, you might try to see that by creating a smaller partition, but my guess is you already have data on the drive03:31
eidoyeah  in there currently no response03:31
scunizieido: also the inkscape channel03:31
ghjtypo03:31
xiambaxcalebi, they just went live with the feed.03:32
billybigriggeranyone aware of a good newsgroup reader that supports ssl and atleast 10 connections? possibly with a gui?03:32
fabian_thedue42: yes, I have data on it. I think it is because the partition is GPT. But in hal.03:32
eidoscunizi, thanks forgot about inscape, if i find something i'll let you know03:32

candykornstreaming off the net?03:59
FlannelGuest39463: Oh, sorry.  Misread your question.  What you can do to boot successfully is (at the grub menu) hit escape, choose an option, hit 'e' and then you can modify that entry ot match your backed up menu.lst, and then that'll boot.03:59
ctmjrdanni_: your welcome but sounds like you found it on your own03:59
candykornwill itopen in browser or sepreate window?03:59

GodfatherofEirecandykorn, with those plugins it should allow you to stream it in the browser03:59

GodfatherofEirecandykorn, just search swfdec and gnash in synaptic and they should come up, then search gstreamer plugins, and then install what comes up (and then install ubuntu-restricted-extras if you really want to)04:01

=== Guest19339 is now known as zachtib|linux
xorwhyd9500: 2.6.28 jaunty 9.0404:11
Geekneeusxorwhy: to the latest kernel version?04:15
d9500xorwhy: and you want to upgrade just the kernel, not do a dist-upgrade, but it has to be done through synaptic and not by downloading the .deb files?04:16
xorwhyGeekneeus: yes/04:16
candykornwow irc on ubuntu is tooo diffrent04:16
xorwhyd9500: I will download the deb files if synaptic is difficult, I preferred synaptic incase of dependency requirements.04:17
Geekneeusxorwhy: You need to download the latest version from kernel.org, extract it.. customize it /compile install04:17
Kuroganeany1 knows where is the config  pure-ftpd.conf because here /etc/pure-ftpd/ is not there04:17
xorwhyGeekneeu by customize it, could I significantly improve performance?04:17
xorwhykurogan use the locate command04:18
Geekneeusxorwhy: It's possible, though you shouldn't really play around with it if you can't even install it :P04:18
d9500xorwhy: well, gdebi will tell you what dependencies you need, if you try to install the .deb by double clicking on it to open gdebi. so far, the only ppa i've found for newer kernels has no files in it.04:18
Geekneeusxorwhy: You can remove things from the kernel that you don't need, enable features that aren't default etc04:18
d9500xorwhy: you might try enabling jaunty-backports in your software sources, though unfortunately (or fortunately, if you happen to like bleeding-egde software) that may pull a lot of other newer pakcages too04:18
xorwhyGeekneeu it wouldn't be difficult.04:19
xorwhyd9500: the PPA is http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.31/04:19
xorwhyd9500 Can't do that, disk space nazi over here.04:19

xiambaxGeekneeus, I got a job for apple. So i bought a mac. Best investment ever.04:50
xiambaxBut i like linux too, but i love my mac04:50
vigoGeekneeus: Because I am old and the mouse gets lost or mispositioned over something, seems like a Ctrl-C or some key combo would or could snap/move the pointer to center?04:50
Geekneeusxiambax: Glad you're satisfied, matter of opinion I guess04:50
Bluey1maco: just like downtown - no wonder -- thanks!04:51
Geekneeusvigo: I don't think anyone has ever thought of such an application. Perhaps you could try making the mouse cursor bigger04:51
bastid_raZorvigo: compiz has a show mouse plugin.04:52
xiambaxGeekneeus, Theres and plugin in compiz as part of the accessibility features that points out your cursor04:53
xiambaxI think that may be what hes looking for04:53
vigoGeekneeus: That did not work, I also added the Ctrl shows Mouse, maybe I will write or collaborate on such a thing, really seems like a nice gadget for Accessibility purposes. could even use Speex or something to center mouse/pointer.04:53
Geekneeusxiambax: oh right. I didn't want to assume anything, he seemed cleared that he wanted it in the center :P04:54

saracen1Geekneeus:  yeah i got the cron part05:53
roger2how do i make VLC default player for DVDs05:53
Geekneeussaracen1: So what do you need to check drives for? Disk space?05:54
prince_jammysdon't check anything. attempt to perform the backup, and the tool will error out.05:54
saracen1Geekneeus: and it would probably be done using a one liner on the cron its self, like tar /dev/whatever /dev/sda  sort of thing05:54
saracen1but instead i thought ill use a script as a command05:54
Geekneeussaracen1: if you can make a script it should only take you 2 minutes05:55
krsnaWhere can i deactivate the  automatic updates? everybody says its in synaptic but i cant find it05:55
saracen1and in the script, it checks if the drive is mounted astleast, then if it is do the tar then write to the end of a log file success on date, if not write to the log failed05:55
prince_jammysattempt to perform the backup, and report error if tar exits with error.05:55
vigoroger2: System:Preferences:Prefered Applications05:55
prince_jammyssaracen1: don't check if it's mounted, there's no point.05:55
saracen1then what should i do05:55
saracen1its a tape drive05:56
neosimagothanks all who replied. .. . i forgot this box was used for dns some time ago, and resolvconfig would point to itself.05:56
prince_jammyssaracen1: tar it and report an error if tar exits with error05:56
Geekneeussaracen1: make it do the basic functions, then worry about what else you should do :P05:56
prince_jammysdon't waste time with pointless checks05:56
lstarneskrsna: system > administration > software sources > updates05:56
prince_jammyssaracen1: are you going to mount it if it's not mounted?05:56

lstarnes*box05:59
GeekneeusRabbitbunny: heh, was waiting for a channel suggestion :)06:00
Rabbitbunnyhadean: You don't need a script, man gnome-terminal, specifically the -e flag.06:00
lstarneskrsna: but remember that disabling all updates may lead to huge security risks associated with outdated packages06:00
prince_jammyssaracen1: i wouldn't suppress tar's error message either, if you are using your own custom one. redirect both tar's stderr and your message to the log.06:00
hadeanRabbitbunny: thanks a lot06:00
saracen1prince_jammys: ok that seems like a good idea06:00
krsnalstarnes i have unchecked the "check for updates" box, thats what i am saying... this menu seems not to work06:01
hadeanRabbitbunny: Not a thing of my Window-manager (metacity) ?06:01

krsnalstarnes it still asks me06:01
lstarneskrsna: how often?06:02
hadeanlike ... changing the focus to another window?06:02
Rabbitbunnyhadean: Hmm, got me there, you're going to have to find what it uses instead of gnome-terminal, and finds its' -e flag.06:02

krsnalstarnes jauntyx06:03
krsna*jaunty*06:03
lstarneskrsna: have you installed any of the updates?06:04
FlannelSunilThaha: You need to do it while / isn't mounted.  While booting is an easy way to do it.06:04
Flannel!fsck | SunilThaha06:04
ubottuSunilThaha: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot06:04
krsnalstarnes yes06:04
hadeanRabbitbunny: The problem is that i cant find any documentation of metacity that goes further than documentation...06:04
lstarneskrsna: it could be an issue with the cron scripts used with it or with the update notifier appler06:04

trilokubutto can u please tel me how to connect gprs in ubuntu 9.0406:55

XelticSoreehum hi guys.06:55
macoquaredscube: youll have to upgrade through the other versions06:55
XelticSorecan any1 tell me how to change an irc channel06:55
XelticSoresry, go easy on me - new to this stuff06:55
chemjeffOkay, well I am trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop on a system and it won't even get to the beginning, it bails out and gives me the Busybox shell.  What can I do?06:55
PerryArmstrongjoebodo_; thanks...after downloading where do i need to put it??06:55
macoquaredscube: or reinstall. either one. skipping releases on upgrade is not supported except to go from one LTS to another. the next being 10.0406:55
XelticSorehello?06:56
voxchemjeff: use the -alternate cd06:56
chemjeffvox: I did, the same thing happens06:56
macoXelticSore: type "/join #newchannel"06:56
XelticSoreno i mean06:56
chemjeffvox: It says that it can't mount the CD-ROM06:56
XelticSoreHow to change the channel like blabla.blabla.com06:56
voxchemjeff: uh..06:56
macoXelticSore: oh the server?06:56
icarus-cXelticSore: /server06:56
XelticSoreoh ok06:56
XelticSorethanks! :)06:56
macoXelticSore: what client are you using?06:56
XelticSoreim using XChat06:56
voxchemjeff: what hardware?06:56
quaredscubemaco, so every 6 months I must reinstall?06:56
joebodo_PerryArmstrong, you can put it in either your home directory (like /home/xxxx/eclipse) or in /opt/eclipse06:56
macoquaredscube: you can upgrade06:56
icarus-cXelticSore: hit Ctrl+T06:57
icarus-cmeh06:57
macoquaredscube: but you cannot upgrade from 8.04 to 9.10 because 8.10 and 9.04 happened in between06:57
joebodo_PerryArmstrong, it'll run in just about any location you unzip it to06:57
macoquaredscube: you can upgrade through 8.10 and 9.0406:57
chemjeffvox: Intel Core i7 920, Asus P6T Deluxe MB, 6 GB Corsair DDR3@1600 RAM, what else do you want to know?06:57
PerryArmstrongjoebodo_; okk thats it right...thanks...i am leaving then as the xchat is taking much of my bandwidth06:57
joebodo_ok06:57
macoquaredscube: or every 6 months upgrade as new versions are released06:57
macoquaredscube: or every 2 years upgrade as new LTS versions are released06:57
icarus-cchemjeff: why not xeon06:57
macoquaredscube: but distances > 6 months and < 2 years require more work06:58
chemjefficarus-c: Because I wanted the LGA 1366 socket06:58
PerryArmstrongjoebodo_; cya then and thanks for the help...06:58
macoquaredscube: by upgrade through, i men tell 8.04 to go to 8.10, then tell 8.10 to go to 9.04, then tell 9.04 to go to 9.1006:58
voxchemjeff: thats.. very weird. i dont have an answer for that06:58
PerryArmstrongjoebodo_; i was hit by this problem for more than a week and i couldn't get a solution...thanks once again06:59
quaredscubemaco, does upgrading to the new 6 month version require manual effort on my part, or does Ubuntu include the necessaries when I use the update tools?06:59
chemjeffvox: I was able to install Gentoo on the same system but I can't install Ubuntu for some reason06:59
PerryArmstrongand thanks to others ....maco ans others who tried helping me06:59
macoquaredscube: its in the update tools06:59
chemjeffvox: I did an lspci and it is misassigning my PCI devices, it thinks my hard drive is a network card, etc. Could this be the problem?06:59
macoquaredscube: in system -> administration -> software sources, there is an option to either notify you about all new versions, only new LTS verisons, or not at all06:59
quaredscubemaco, thanks07:00
macoquaredscube: set it to the all new versions setting, and it should offer to go to 8.1007:00
macoquaredscube: er the second it = the update manager07:00
quaredscubemaco, why does it require more effort to upgrade to the next LTS?07:00
voxchemjeff: i'd wager that's a yes07:00
macoquaredscube: one LTS to the next LTS is a single upgrade. its easy07:01
chemjeffvox: Is there a way to correctly scan the PCI devices?07:01
voxchemjeff: might be something about the chipset that kernel doesnt like - check launchpad07:01
macoquaredscube: its when you want to go from 1 version to another where they are *not* both LTS and also not sequential that its more annoying07:01
macoquaredscube: the effort required to make skipping releases easy is somethng that is only expended for LTS07:02
* icarus-c loves rolling release distro somehow07:03
quaredscubemaco, what do you think of Mint?07:04
macoquaredscube: never tried it07:04
icarus-cquaredscube: it is ubuntu with more addons to enhance user experience07:05
_JacK_polling socket has returned, but read no one byte, what is the problem?07:05
quaredscubeI know07:05

icarus-cquaredscube: it is just ubuntu with a different skin07:06

macoU-b-u-n-t-u: so if you want a way to script this, the exif package gets you the command exif. "exif -l file.jpg | grep date" will show you teh tags relating to the date07:12
icarus-cexif data is shown in Properties under image tab07:12

noshelterHarrison_Bergero does only the file transfer stop, or do u loose all network connectivity?07:30
crohakonRabbitbunny; Nice, SimAnt? Is that some kind of game?07:30

noshelterHarrison_Bergero try to mount the share -- I'm not sure if u can do a windows share as CIFS, but try it out, Nautilus mounts with something but I have no clue with what07:33
icarus-cnoshelter: yes you can07:33
Harrison_Bergeronoshelter.....the share is on the desktop...i suppose its already mounted?07:33

crohakonicarus-c; don't judge me =)07:34
* icarus-c invites people to play sauerbraten07:34
noshelterHarrison_Bergero yes it is mounted, but there is a diff between smbfs and cifs, i think the latter is more relaible07:34
icarus-csmbfs is obsolete afaik07:34
icarus-cnautilus uses gvfs07:35
grawityicarus-c: smbfs has been obsoleted by cifs.07:35
noshelterthere u go07:35
Harrison_Bergeronoshelter...let me do a bit of reading on CIFS....bbl07:36
grawityicarus-c: and GnomeVFS/GVFS/GIO is a quite different thing.07:36
velko_icarus-c, it's better to say nothing than to say such nonsence07:36
grawity(GVFS is what GNOME uses now; GnomeVFS was the older thing)07:36
grawitynoshelter: Basically, CIFS is updated SMB. You can mount.cifs a Windows share and it will work fine.07:37
nosheltergrawity yup, i thought so, just haven't used a windows partition in over 5 years, so i kidna forgot07:37
Harrison_Bergeronoshelter....CIFS involves setting up a domain in windows.  Does this work better than workgroup networking?07:38
grawityHarrison_Bergero: No it doesn't.07:38
grawityHarrison_Bergero: CIFS can use workgroups just fine07:38

nosheltergrawity: that looks more like wgat I have, I just don;t remember what was set in gnome in aperance to get the terminal font07:52
eighty4Ok, Im really not sure if this is a ubuntu problem or a os x or a afp problem (everything was working last friday). When mounting a folder with afp using netatalk its .svn folders won't show up in os x. Checking the folder in Ubuntu they're there. Ideas on why this would happen?07:52
jitenderany applicayion available for backup07:52
nosheltergrawity: and now im on fluxbox, so I kinda have to find the right one and edit my stuff to work with it07:52
ActionParsnipjitender: ubottu just gave you 6 links on possible backup solutions07:53
grawitynoshelter: Run gconf-editor, find /desktop/gnome/interface/monospace_font_name07:53
jitenderbut i unable to open links07:53
ActionParsnipjitender: rsync is one possiblility, depends what you are backing up07:54
nosheltergrawity: don't have gnome anymore, using fluxbox, that's why i was hopping someone with gnome could share that with me07:54
jitenderi want to backup my full system07:54
ActionParsnipjitender: i you are backing up the OS i'd use partimage personally, if its just user data then rsync will be good07:54
grawitynoshelter: Share what exactly?07:54
alabdGood day everyone , would you introduce 1 or more biggest mailing list or forums for linux ?07:54
nosheltergrawity: what is stored in /desktop/gnome/interface/monospace_font_name07:54
nosheltergrawity: if that is the exact path to it, im lacking gconf-editor, so i have no clue how to check that07:55
jitenderhow i can find the rsync07:55
grawitynoshelter: "DejaVu Sans Mono 10"07:55
grawitynoshelter: Maybe you have gconftool-2?07:55
grawitynoshelter: And if not... wait a minute, I'm googling for something.07:55
psychuilHi guys.07:56
ActionParsnip!info rsync07:56
nosheltergrawity: yes i have gconftool-2, let me check it out07:56
ubottursync (source: rsync): fast remote file copy program (like rcp). In component main, is standard. Version 3.0.5-1ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 330 kB, installed size 664 kB07:56
psychuili'm unable to install flash on my liveusb for some reason.07:56
jitenderyes07:56
grawitynoshelter: Ah, edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and add: gtk-font-name = "DejaVu Sans Mono 10"07:56
ActionParsnipjitender: its part of a standard install07:56
ActionParsnipjitender: you have it07:56
jitenderno07:56
ActionParsnipjitender: then run: sudo apt-get install rsync07:57
nosheltergrawity: don't have that file, and xterm doesn't use by default i think (since it;s not a gtk app as far as I know)07:57
grawitynoshelter: You can use .gtkrc-2.0 to set GTK themes too - gtk-icon-theme-name = "Mist" // gtk-theme-name = "Clearlooks" // gtk-toolbar-style = GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH_HORIZ //07:57
Harrison_Bergerook...novice question regarding file transfers....if there is no error message, can i assume the entire file was copied verbatim?07:57
grawitynoshelter: Yeah, xterm isn't GTK...07:57
Harrison_Bergeroacross the LAN07:58
grawitynoshelter: And Xterm won't support DejaVu either, I think.07:58
grawitynoshelter: At least not the pretty antialisified version.07:58
icarus-cHarrison_Bergero: md5sum ,etc07:58
nosheltergrawity: yeah, that's the thing, tho I am not sure how fluxbox can make use of xft-fonts, and xterm can't07:58
jitenderis this Gadmin Rsync07:59
ActionParsnipjitender: not sure, its just rsync afaik07:59
nosheltergrawity: and i tried eterm and aterm as alt to xterm, but i couldn't get those to work with anything other than what xfontsel gives07:59
grawitynoshelter: Because fluxbox is written with xft support in mind, and Xterm is a pure X app, written way before Xft.07:59
Harrison_Bergeroicarus-c...where do i find the md5sumẞ07:59
grawitynoshelter: How about just using gnome-terminal? I use that on wmii.07:59
icarus-cHarrison_Bergero: maybe you stick with the classics : compare the size and total number of files08:00
jitenderthis application i have already installed, but unable to backup08:00
nosheltergrawity: neah, im gona be stuborn on this one, and figure it out :P08:00
Harrison_Bergeroicarus-c....yeah, size and file number are same08:00
jitenderhow this app work08:00
grawitynoshelter: In short, Xterm has no Xft.08:00
velko_Harrison_Bergero, you have to build them for yourself. for bot files. linux side:  md5sum myfile.avi08:00
velko_Harrison_Bergero, both*08:01

grawitynoshelter: Those ones - I have no idea...08:01
jitenderguide me pls08:01
nosheltergrawity: and lol, xterm -fa monospace makes use of the xft monospace family of fonts08:03
velko_Harrison_Bergero, there are free tools for doing the same on windows. if you cannot install them on your win-machine, simply get the file back to the linux machine and build the checksum for it ;)08:03

ActionParsnipasfjio: there is a kernel module for nvidia, it needs creating using dkms each time you get a new kernel. If you use the packages this is done for you, if you use the .run file i'm not sure it completes it. You may want to reinstall it so the new module gets made08:35

asfjiohello, i spoke with womeone from the channel, but he is not here now. can someone help me, because my problem still exists. the problem is that i can't use nvidia driver in my xorg.conf, because if i write nvidia my resolution is getting very bad. i was adviced to do "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180", but i've got an error "You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.27-15-generic (i686) first.". what can i do?09:16
shaothats what im doing09:16
asfjioi also do "sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-180-modaliases nvidia-glx-180", but still no effect.09:16
indusasfjio: hmm09:17
indusasfjio: what iss the exact problem09:17
sun`why input/output error is coming.. it didnt use to come earlier.. i have installed from the same cd.09:17
andysfilei love linux09:17
indusasfjio: i think you are missing the restricted kernel headers09:18
asfjioindus: using nv as video driver in xorg.conf is okay, but my video render a bit slow. using nvidia it says "failed to load the nvidia kernel module" when starting.09:18
indusasfjio: what card is this model09:18
asfjioindus: wait09:18
sun`why input/output error is coming.. it didnt use to come earlier.. i have installed from the same cd.09:18
indussun` cd scratched maybe, or check cables inside system09:19
knoppiessun`, try re-seating your drive plugs.09:19
asfjioindus: i have this in my xorg and i think it should be right Identifier "nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]".09:19
indusasfjio: can i see output of uname -a09:19
Obituaryhi09:19
asfjioindus: sure "Linux krb2 2.6.27-15-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 20 06:52:09 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux"09:20
andysfilei can't find if gfire 0.8.3 works with pidgin 2.5.209:20

asfjioindus: is it possible when i do this update my pc not start normally? i'm afraid of those kernel updates.09:27
Bruceverytime i do it ...it stuffs up09:27
BilliardBruc stuffs up?09:27
indusasfjio: well, you always have the older kernel versions to boot into09:28
indusasfjio: ok i have a question, did u install nvidia drivers before ? from the site?09:28
Brucit borked my drive09:28
asfjioindus: question: is that updating my kernel or it is just some helper script as it says?09:28
BilliardBruc: borked?09:28
indusasfjio: it installs restricted modules which handle nvidia or similar drivers09:29
Brucyeah it only allocates only 200 meg of files09:29
Brucof space i mean09:29
Brucive got one terabytes ..09:29
BilliardBruc, try the manual partitioning option?09:29
asfjioindus: so this is only assosiated with graphic update? and if something goes wrong i can boot, but just with no GUI?09:30
Bruchmm iam to worried it might happend again.09:30
indusasfjio: just install it09:30
indusbruc during automatic partition, move the slider to specify how much space you want09:30
Brucslider what slider???09:31
Brucok iam going to do it..only if u advise me Indus09:32
asfjioindus: understood. upgrading... :) its annoying when i start asking questions. sorry about it.09:32
Bruciam going on live cd.09:32
indusasfjio: i like people who annoy me09:32
indusbruc ill help, and so will others09:32
asfjioindus: okay it is not installed. should i try now "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180" ?09:32
indusasfjio: yeah09:32
indusasfjio: no first reboot09:33
bigmack83_i have a bunch of .avi files i want to convert to mpeg so i can burn them to a dvd and watch them on a dvd player. what would the workflow be in ubuntu to do so? I have tried using devede but it seems to only be able to put four ~175Mb files onto one dvd.is there a better option?09:33
Brucok cool let me boot of the live cd...09:33
asfjioindus: rebooting..09:34
Billiardbigmack83_:  devede should allow more than 4 video files09:34
bigmack83_Billiard, yea thats what i thought. the only thing i can think of is that its trying to put all the extra files on to the dvd/iso as well.09:35
bigmack83_would it be easier or better to use ffmpeg to convert them all to mpeg first then just use dvdauthor or similar to burn them to dvd with menu to select the episode?09:36
offsensehello, is there any way to install gwibber on hardy heron?????09:36
indus!info >  gwibber09:37
ubottu<indus> wants you to know: Retrieve information on a package: !info <package>09:37

asfjioindus: u here?09:41
indusasfjio: yes09:41
indusasfjio: i thought your PC exploded09:42
asfjioindus: i did "sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-glx-180" and then "/etc/init.d/gdm restart" it says you need to update your configuration. new line. no device detected. running on low-graphic mode.09:43
indusasfjio: always restart after installing display drivers09:44
asfjioindus: may be i'm cursed :(09:44

indusasfjio: wait 1 min09:44

asfjioindus: GeForce FX 5200.09:45
jitenderdear indus , tell me about cron09:45
bigmack83_Billiard, ok each avi i have is 170mb and selecting one in devede takes nearly 25% of the disk space on a dvd. so how am i supposed to fit more than 4 avi's onto the iso to burn it09:46
indusasfjio: did you install nvidia glx 180?09:46
jitenderany body know cron09:46
bigmack83_maybe its an option im not seeing then that needs to be changed?09:46
asfjioindus: yes, then restart gdm, but no reboot the pc itself.09:46
indusasfjio: you need to install nvidia-glx-legacy09:46
indusasfjio: your card is not supported by the 180 drivers09:47
indusasfjio: install the older ones09:47
Billiardbigmack83_: the bitrate settings maybe09:47
indusasfjio: sorry wait09:47
indusasfjio: install nvidia-glx-173 somethinh09:47
indusasfjio: then reboot09:48
asfjioindus: now i need to remove nvidia-glx-180? apt-get remove nvidia-glx-180 is that?09:48
ArabusHey, anyone know where to set the option where new windows on the gnome desktop are opened / positioned?09:48
indusasfjio: it will be automatically removed09:48
indusasfjio: no wonder the card was not found09:48
indusasfjio: the 173 driver is what u need09:48
bigmack83_Billiard, well even then it shouldnt go from 170 mb to nearly over 1gb for one avi file.09:48
jitendercron cron cron09:49
asfjioindus: done, now going to reboot. hope it wont explode :)09:49
bigmack83_Billiard, heh, well it seems that the default bit rate is 5001 kbps09:49

indusasfjio: excellent, click on activate09:56
indusasfjio: it it says restart system , you are in luck09:57
asfjioindus: it done some things and now i'm again on that window. nothing changed and not asking for reboot.09:58
indusasfjio: what did it do09:58
indusasfjio: just press ATL-SYsrq- K09:58
asfjioindus: activate and then asked to autheniticate as user that have root access.09:58
indusasfjio: ok09:59
indusasfjio: did it start downloading?09:59
asfjioindus: in the dialog it was "downloading and installing driver" if i'm not mistaken09:59
indusasfjio: yes09:59
indusasfjio: then what happened10:00
asfjioindus: and bring me back to the same window. and still says this driver is not activated.10:00
indusasfjio: ok do one thing, remove that kernel we installed10:00
indusasfjio: remember >? restricted something10:00
indusasfjio: we start from beginning, but you must have realised,you were installing wrong driver10:01
indusasfjio: now atleast we have the correct driver version10:01
indusasfjio: so go to synaptic, and install the 173 driver10:01
industhen reastart10:01

aXaXinppl... c'mon... fglrx in 9,1010:25
aXaXinor 9.04....10:26
aXaXini've searched but it seams like ATI or ubuntu just fogot the older chipsets....10:27
Teastroi have a general problem, i don't understand why but my audio doesn't work anymore, i tryed to fix the problem installing a new version of alsa and pulseaudio, but it doesn't want work...any advice?10:28
theadminxorg-driver-fglrx - looks like one you need, aXaXin10:28
anix#claroline10:28
aXaXintheadmin: what's the command to see what driver i have installed?10:28
theadminaXaXin: Not sure, actually, but just see if that package is installed.10:29
Creap_how can I install a deb package (of a testing version) with the same name as a package I already have installed, without replacing the old one?10:29
itguruIf I'm building a gateway with multiple ISP connections, can I use iptables to prefer one route over another, only using the second route if the first one has failed?10:30
theadminCreap_: Not possible, i'd assume.10:30
joaopintoCreap_, you can't10:30
Creap_ok10:30
Creap_:\10:30
joaopintoUbuntu does not allow to install multiple versions of the same package10:31
zvacetCreap_:  testing version probably have higher number10:31
aXaXintheadmin: yes it's installed the problem is, is that driver available in 9.04 or 9.10?10:31
theadminCreap_: Just stick to the stable version.10:31
theadminaXaXin: I see it in Synaptic, so yes it is. I have 9.0410:31
Creap_ok10:32
Creap_I need both though.10:32
aXaXini'm concerned beacause when i start the update to 9.04 it's says that it no longer supports the fglrx driver that i currently have installed10:32
theadminaXaXin: Huh. Maybe it's not the one then.10:33
MadpilotaXaXin, 9.04 and onward have much improved Free drivers for a lot of ATI vidcards. You could well not NEED fglrx anymore10:34
TeastroI have xubuntu 9.04 and i don't listen audio anymore...and i don't understand why. Any advice to find the problem?10:34
aXaXinmine is the x70010:34

NearsightHi, I accidently deleted some ruby-files: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/ and /usr/lib/ruby/, a fresh install doesn't seem to bring them back... can anyone help me on that issue?10:48
jribNearsight: /usr/local is stuff you installed yourself without the help of the package manager10:49
Nearsightjrib: ok. that probanly came with rubygems then... what about /usr/lib?10:49

Elias_I don't hear sound at all on this atm (had a working windows box not too long ago earlier today, the SB-XFi driver is listed atm)..the ubuntu FAQ didn't have much of anything useful on configuring it there are 3 options I've played with the controls for all 3 HDA Intel HDA HDMI and Realtek .. still no sound from Net video or a vlc DVD11:14
theadminElias_:...Most likely codecs. Type this into terminal: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras"11:14
candykorntheadmin: so how can i get ubuntu to display the weather for my area and maybe the moon cycles?11:16
theadminI mean, DVD and net videos most likely have an MP3 sound, and mp3 codecs are in restricted group.11:16
Elias_TY *theadmin* I am downloading now and will let you guys know what's up with it once I reboot and mess around :)11:16

GRUBV1Big Problem. I have a root partition, a boot one (500 mb) and a ntfs (winxp). the thing is, i can't get to grub. If i boot from the hdd, i get DISK BOOT FAILURE. the boot partition has grub installed, all entries good and is flagged bootable11:16

Madpilotcandykorn, for weather, use the gweather applets. Right click your panel, choose Add To Panel, look for weather11:17
Madpilotthen right-click on the new applet to pick your city and configure it11:17
icerooterUSUL: Elias_ correct, no drivers for jaunty(not 32bit, only 64bit) but for karmic11:17
erUSULGRUBV1: reinstall grub from a livecd ?11:17

Madpilotcandykorn, search synaptic for 'moon' there is a moon-phases applet11:18
erUSULElias_: well linux can see the chip in the pci bus and can ask its name but that does not mean it has a driver for it11:18
erUSULEl-Duderino: i do not see why not11:19
Madpilotcandykorn, ah, it's Gnome Lunar Clock. Install it thru synaptic, then it'll show in the Add To Panel menu11:19

PerryArmstrongi have downloaded the eclipse IDE for java EE developers.....i have installed the sun-java6-jre..will that be enough11:23
erUSULsaulus: sorry brainfart... i was confsed. the problem is that you can not here it ?11:23
erUSULPerryArmstrong: well for eclipse you need the jdk ; don't you ?11:23
sauluserUSUL: It doesnt change: I cant hear the bell11:24
PerryArmstrongerUSUL; so sun-java7-jdk??11:24
ArabusPerryArmstrong: Indeed, you should install the jdk as it also includes the documentation for java11:24
icerootPerryArmstrong: there is not java711:24
erUSULPerryArmstrong: yep; karmic support in #ubuntu+111:24
pozicWith ntp I get: "no servers can be used, exiting". I configured at least 6 servers. Is it possible that a proxy is blocking it?11:25

erUSULtoo*11:25
icerooterUSUL: http://java.sun.com/11:25

Arabuspozic: you can test the servers with the tool ntpdc11:25
erUSULiceroot: ok; i stand corrected11:25

erUSULviki26: grep -R11:26
aneesh1PerryArmstrong: Yes you have to set the java path11:26
erUSULviki26: grep -R string folder/11:26
erUSULPerryArmstrong: also you have to configure the system to use sun's java and no the default gcj iirc11:27

ArabusPerryArmstrong: normally upon installation the classpath should be set automagically by apt if not you can set it with export CLASSPATH=$CLAPPSPATH;<your/path/here/>11:28
PerryArmstrongso then sudo update-alternatives --config java will resolve of the gcj from interfering....11:28

cleptoshould i reinstall?11:29
jribclepto: update manager will ask you if you want to upgrade11:29
cleptoah ok11:29
PerryArmstrongArabus; ohhh where will it be installed....okk before i do that i'll check if the classpath is automatically set or not??11:29
ArabusPerryArmstrong: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classpath_(Java)11:30
jribclepto: ask #ubuntu+1 for more details though, because I don't think you'll get grub2 that way11:30
ArabusPerryArmstrong: sorry, got confused11:30
cleptoyeah... i did the default install of ubuntu so it did a single partition i think plus i have vista installed on this machine11:31
PerryArmstrongArabus; i know what the classpath is....but in windows we usually set it to bin and libs folder...in linux i usually find it confusing with the filesystem11:31
Elias_maybe too generic a question, but after a Ubuntu install and then a later Xubuntu install (think the Ubuntu install was corrupted), my NTFS WinXP64 partitiion won't load shows Disk Read Error but the directory structure is all solid there. Xubuntu also wasn't loading but finally got it to work after a few hours .. already tried FDISK and the partition manager from the boot cd for Ubuntu showed the right values for C:\'s size .. do I need to t11:31
Elias_ransfer the data from both partitions to another drive and reformat/repartition or do I have other options? I'm here after OS reinstall #511:31
Rods_TigerI'm having trouble with e-zipupdate - I find the documentation incomprehensible, and it's not working properly. It seems to be telling the world that my domain name links to 192.168.etc.etc11:32
ArabusPerryArmstrong: well if you store your programs in \home\username\workspace for example you should add that path to the classpath11:32
ArabusPerryArmstrong: eclipse will set that normally when you choose a workspace though11:32

grawitypsypher12: What else did you expect when pasting `df -h`11:46
Arabuspsypher12: normall the /tmp directory is cleaned upon shutdown - if not you can examine if a file in the /tmp is still in use by typing "lsof | grep /tmp" If you want to, you can the go about and delete the files NOT listed by that output. be careful though, since you could ruin the temporary files of running processes that did not lock their temporary files11:47

ActionParsnippsypher12: you can also save space by removeing openoffice (500M) then installing Abiword (10Mb0 and gnumeric (12Mb)11:50

eggy_And chrome doesn't work, songbird doesn't work. THis is getting on my nervers12:41

sahilskhow can i??13:50
sipiork3Rn: there's nothing in /var/log/apt?13:51
elginixtry downlaoding unetbootin13:51
om26erhylman: UMR uses moblin 2.1 apps so connman here now shows blutooth wired wireless 3g etc13:51

izzig33k: you want anon users only of both?13:51
sahilski've tried using unetbootin. But when i reboot my computer and boot from pendrive, it say : can't find ntdlr13:51
g33kizzi, both is better13:51
hylmanom26er: so can we choose connman or networkmanager in UMR?13:51
om26erhylman: no13:51
elginixsahilsk: it's probably not botting from usb13:51

k3Rnsipior» i am quite a noob - tell me what og files i should post and i try to get em here13:51
sipiork3Rn: might be worth simply trying to reconfigure the server via "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"13:51
bazhangwoow, #ubuntu-fr pour francais13:52
hylmanom26er: so, which one does UMR use?13:52

woowsorry13:52
om26erhylman: connman13:52

elginixsahilsk: and check which device is booted from13:54
hylmanom26er: I really like moblin UI, but also ubuntu's popularity (with deb package), so if UMR is stable enough, I might download it13:54
om26erhylman: if you open this page you will see that many bug are fixed many13:54

g33kizzi, my router is using port 80, so i must use 8080 it said, how do i go about?14:05
rblstn8tuser: i've also tried wicd instead of network-manager14:05
n8tuserrblst-> are you using same host to chat now14:05
rblstn8tuser: yes14:05
SandGorgonn8tuser, it was a long list of filenames14:05

yoritomoizzi which version is better actually ? Are them equal ? anyway now lets try to get this one working14:05
g33kizzi, apache14:06
izzig33k: moment please14:06
elginixsahilsk: bit of a catch 22 - i think i'd just try to download the iso on another machine and run unetbootin on there - even a windows machine can create a ubuntu bootstick14:06
n8tuserrblst-> so am not sure what your complain is about networking  if you are already using same host to chat14:06
g33kizzi, ok, as of now its going to the router page14:06
n8tuserSandGorgon-> then look for it there.. spend some time parsing the list14:07

ghoulsbladehi all, i need to copy big amounts of data (2.5terrabyte) with many files via ftp, using ncftp so far, it's been running for over an hour and still no bandwidth used, so i guess it is collecting filenames or something. does someone know a better ftp program for console ? (rsync 2.6.7 and can't be updated due to it being on a embedded raid box with some custom linux distro)14:09

dbernar1rblst: do you happen to know how to add a gateway for the manually brought up interface?14:10

Suikodencan i boot from an ipod?14:11
zenadoregcan you write me channel english language?14:11
Suikodenim using windows, then i want to change it to ubuntu14:11
bazhangSuikoden, doubt ful14:11
zenadoregplease help14:11
n8tuserghoulsblade-> copying through the network would be awefully slow, if you can transfer the hd to same host and then xfer it that way14:11
Suikodenwhyyy?14:11
grawitySuikoden: Should be possible - but you might nuke the iPod's firmware by installing grub...14:11
rblstn8tuser: i don't have a netbook, i have an Intel  PRO/Wireless 2200BG card, i used to work before the last update14:11
bazhangzenadoreg, this is the english ubuntu support channel14:11
jribghoulsblade: wow, that's a lot of data to transfer over ftp.  I only know of regular "ftp", but can't say whether it's better than ncftp14:11
grawitySuikoden: However, all iPods have a recovery mode built in deep inside.14:11
llutzzenadoreg: what is your country/language?14:11
zenadoreg<bazhang> i know14:11
g33kizzi, no still the dydns url leads to router page but not /var/www...shall i paste bin my vsftp.conf would u mind having a look at it?14:12
bazhangzenadoreg, what is your support issue then14:12
izzig33k: oh wait14:12
Suikodengrawity: how about from a usb device?14:12
g33kizzi, ok14:12
n8tuserrblst-> at least you have a baseline to compare it with.  see if the driver is loaded14:12
hylmanom26er: thanks a lot for your respond... now, i'm downloading UMR daily feed from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-moblin-remix/daily-live/20091024/14:12

grawitySuikoden: An iPod _is_ a USB device, isn't it?14:12
om26erhylman: yes its fine cd14:13
hylmanom26er: I believe this is more advance build than moblin rc14:13
izzig33k: is it a router problem you have p;ort forward it okay in your router to one of you ip;s local?14:13
grawitySuikoden: Or were you talking about a FireWire one.14:13
rblstdbernar1: sudo route add default gw <ip>14:13
grawitySuikoden: But most today's BIOSes support booting from any USB mass storage device.14:13
zenadoreg<bazhang> simply for me it is not more channels14:13
Suikodengrawity: yeah its an usb device alt14:13
om26erhylman: some high prority bugs were fixed after RC so they made a new cd14:13
Suikodensoo it means i cant boot it from ipod?14:13
zenadoregbut not it is very quickly necessary14:13
g33kizzi, port fwd is fine, cos other are able to open my ftp url, but not me as a local user14:13

stevem_Isn't the terminal window title meant to change when you SSH in to something?14:14
stevem_it used to14:14
jrib!cron > iceroot14:14
ubottuiceroot, please see my private message14:14
bazhangzenadoreg, did you have an ubuntu support question14:14
grawitySuikoden: It depends. You _should_ be able to - but by instlaling a bootloader, you may destroy iPod's OS14:14
dbernar1rblst: thanks/14:14
Suikodengrawity: oh tanks for the warning14:14
izzig33k: okay and when you using you local ip to connect?14:14
grawitySuikoden: Just remember that all iPods can be recovered.14:14
icerootjrib: no browser here but thank you14:14
grawitystevem_: It does not change automatically. Usually, the title is set by your shell - and once you ssh, it's the remote shell that does it.14:14
llutziceroot: man 5 crontab14:15
g33kizzi, no it wont load at all!14:15
jribiceroot: erm, you don't have w3m?  You can always read "man 5 crontab" as well14:15
grawitystevem_: So, ssh in, type 'echo $PS1', check if it contains this: \033]0;14:15
stevem_grawity, but it used to work the same way as it does when you su14:15
zenadoregas through ubuntu I can be connected to the channel of English14:15

g33kizzi, o yes its loading, ftp://local is14:15
llutziceroot: * 23 * * 1-514:15
g33kizzi, o yes its loading, http://local is not14:15
izzig33k: ftp localhost14:15
bazhangzenadoreg, for simply English you could /join ##english14:16
stevem_grawity, no it contains \h:\w\$14:16
grawitystevem_: IT DEPENDS ON YOUR SHELL. When you use 'su' or 'sudo', it is done by the newly started shell. When you ssh out, it is done by the _remote_ shell.14:16
stevem_right14:16
icerootllutz: thx14:16
n8tuserrblst can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces  contents? and tell me which network manager are you using?14:16
hedkandiwhat is a shell?14:16
g33kizzi, it connects and asks for username: !14:16
stevem_grawity, so it's not that my desktop isn't doing it, it's the remote end not sending it back in the right format?14:16
grawitystevem_: Run this now:   PS1="\[\033]0;\u@\h \w\033\134\]$PS1"14:16
grawitystevem_: Correct.14:16
stevem_bingo14:16
stevem_but I'd have to do that on every server :S14:16
g33kizzi, and if i type any user name, it says This FTP server is anonymous only.:)14:16

sahilskone more thing , i am a newbie in linux.sorry but , how can i compile and run c program in ubunut. I am using gedit and gcc. I used the same syntax as i used to ,while using turbo c14:22
^mNotIntelligent!hi | hedkandi14:22
ubottuhedkandi: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay!14:22
n8tuserkorcan-> you are infront of the server yes?14:23
korcanssh...14:23
timewriterhi14:23
^mNotIntelligentsahilsk, you can use gcc to compile like gcc <filename.c> use man gcc to know the details14:23
n8tuser!who | korcan14:23
ubottukorcan: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)14:23
^mNotIntelligent!hi | timewriter14:23
ubottutimewriter: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay!14:23
korcann8tuser, sorry, I am ssh'ed in14:23
jribsahilsk: gcc foo.c  will produce "a.out" that you can execute.  But you'll probably want to run something like: gcc -o OUTPUT_NAME -Wall INPUT.c14:24
^mNotIntelligent!shell | hedkandi14:24
ubottuhedkandi: 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/UsingTheTerminal14:24
grawitystevem_: Basically, the PS1 variable contains your shell's "prompt" - the thing displayed before every command.14:24
n8tuserkorcan-> then how can you compar console responses if you are not in front of the server?14:24
rblstn8tuser: i will, but should it not be done by nm-connection-editor?14:24
kubancwhen i'm booting into ubutnu, 2 things failed to success. how can i see which one failed to load ?14:24
grawitystevem_: (This makes it a good place to put change-the-title sequences too.)14:24
korcann8tuser, I can be in front if I need to be...  The server room is 20 feet away14:25
korcann8tuser, it takes me 30 seconds to type in a command14:25
korcann8tuser, at the console14:25
n8tuserkorcan-> when you sale console you really meant the old terminal console on the serial port?14:25
n8tusersay*14:25
korcann8tuser, no I mean , keyboard/monitor plugged into the server14:25
grawitystevem_: The prompt is customizable, many users have their own fancy versions. So most Linux distros come with a very simple one by default (\u@\h \w\$, user@host dir$)14:25
^mNotIntelligentkubanc, you can use dmesg14:26
StFSHi. I have a system that displays an xsession-errors dialog message when a user logs in and then it logs out when the user clicks OK on that dialog. There are no title bars on any windows when the dialog is being displayed. The error message in the dialog is here: http://pastebin.com/d3a61ab3f (something about (nautilus:8039): EggSMClient-WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session manager: IO error occured opening connection)14:26
^mNotIntelligentkubanc, to see the errors that happened during boot up14:26
sahilskjrib: Thanks for recalling theses things. But i need to know how to add header files in gcc. like in trubo c we do " #include <stdio.h>.", and we start "main"  as thsi : :"void main() {...". . I need to compile graphics programs, so which how can i include graphic.h, in it. ??14:26
cumui have some lags on ubuntu, and my syslog file tell me that : ata1.01: qc timeout (cmd 0xa0), someone know howto fix that ? :(14:27
grawitysahilsk: In Linux, gcc still has stdio.h and main() and everything. But graphics are done very differently.14:27
n8tuserkorcan-> like you do a ctrl+alt+f1  is the console you are referring to right?14:27
korcann8tuser, yes14:27
kubanc^mNotIntelligent, with dmesg, i cannot define what went wrong, bacause there's lots of stuff14:27
grawitysahilsk: Google for "xlib documentation" or something14:28
kubanc^mNotIntelligent, is there any possibility to see the same stuff as it was happening when booting into ubuntu?14:28
n8tuserkorcan-> i would really find that odd that it is slower than a remoted in ssh.  try the other tty's on f2 to f614:28
^mNotIntelligentkubanc, fine..but atleast you can go through the error messages and I guess that would help to figure out what exactly went wrong14:28

This isn't really an Ubuntu question but is there an application that can search directories and fingerprint the files (like MD5 them) then find matches/mismatches with another directory. e.g. I have a DVD filled with photos and I want to see if all the files that are on the DVD have been copied to another location at some point (but not necessarily having the directory structure on the DVD retained at that location). Or do I have to write a script?16:14

talntid any ideas why this could be?16:25
d9500Kingsy101: theoretically, it shouldn't, but I do recall reading somewhere that users were experiencing problems--granted, on an earlier ubuntu version--when installing directly from firefox. Why that would happen, I do not know.16:26

abhiroopbScunizi: I found xchat too complicated16:28
Scunizilinus: that's a poll.. but yes16:28
d9500Kingsy101: well, a wipe and reinstall, using Karmic this time, would probably fix the problem, but that would be awfully drastic. Maybe you should just purge the adobe plugin and its config files, add a repo for firefox 3.5, install ff 3.5, and then reinstall adobe, using the tar-gz manually downloaded from adobe's site to make sure there's no problems with putting it in the wrong place when installing?16:29

agrumanWhen using xev and pressing keys while holding ctrl down, i get "a square with 4 digits in it" ex 0011 when pressing <ctr-q>. Now i want it to be "q". Where is this mapped? In the keymap there are only mappings for "normal", "shift", "3rd lvl" and "3rd lvl + shift"?17:46

agrumanbut why does it try to do that, they are all 00xx17:49
Slartagruman: you could try xmodmap to change the key definitions.. note that there is no easy way to reset the keyboard to default (reboot will do it though) so read the documentation first17:51

LjL!checkinstall | this might be preferred over make install19:15
ubottuthis might be preferred over make install: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!19:15

MeikiHi. I've revoked a PGP key using --gen-revoke, how do I send that to a keyserver?19:20
MeikiI've used --send-keys, but the keyserver is not marking it as revoked19:20
FlannelMeiki: You generate a revocation certificate, then import the revocation certificate (and it'll be marked revoked locally) then you send keys19:21
blueglassesMeiki, maybe the server keeps revoked records19:21
LjLMeiki: uhm, i believe --gen-revoke simply *generates* a revocation certificate, doesn't revoke anything19:21
LjL(good practice is to *always* generate such a certificate right when creating a key)19:22
FlannelMeiki: Generating a revocation certificate oesn't revoke.  You should actually generate a revocation certificate right away after creating a key (and store it securely)19:22
MeikiFlannel: How do I import the revocation certificate?19:22
MeikiAh..19:22

kdibbleI just want to see the list of files19:24

MeikiJust locally it won't be on the key19:24
FlannelMeiki: Er, yes.  If I understand what you're doing.  Once on the keyserver, it's there forever (which is why you need a revoc. cert)19:25

blueglasseskdibble, why dont you use the -c option?19:26
kaptainkraniumHey guys, I'm new to linux, and I'm wondering what to do with .tar's, or .tar.gz's. I'm not familiar with them, from what I understand so far you download them to install programs? Not sure what to do after that19:26
fosco__kaptainkranium, ubuntu does not use tar nor tgz packages, you'd better use synaptic to manager your software19:27
kdibbleblueglasses: because I am examing the list of files that were put in the archive and then compressed19:27
Flannelkaptainkranium: a tarball is just a compressed archive of files, there's lots of things you can do with them.19:27
MeikiFlannel: I tried changing an e-mail address, removed the UID, added a new UID (with new e-mail), sent it to keyserver. But now there is a key with two UIDS on the keyserver, but only one UID locally19:27
Meiki:/19:27
zohi. i'm a xubuntu user. my cd player is not identified, what can i do to fix that problem? is there a specific command line?19:27

blueglasseskdibble, you should probably use the -l option19:29
kdibbledajhorn: Yes I could do that, the question is why does this fail, it doesn't fail if I am not on a readonly filesystem19:29
Doctehshipit is down to two options now?19:29
MeikiFlannel: Hm, I've done --gen-revoke, but the import is saying no such file19:29
dajhornkdibble: gzunzip is unzipping the file, not piping it to tar.19:29
blueglasseskaptainkranium, a repository is a collection of packets for one or more distributions19:29

cavaleirotoo many problems on my Ubuntu 9.04 .. probably, that's why they are launching 9.10 soon...20:18
ActionParsnipKcmatt: run: sudo lshw -C network    you will see the chip in the device. you can then find drivers for the chip20:18
Scunizicavaleiro: please don't relate the next release with problems in the previous release.  Ubuntu has a new release every 6 months.... like clockwork20:19

Billiard[B]randon: dont have to ask twice, why wouldnt it work23:37
foul_owler23:37
[B]randondont know lol23:37
phixfoul_owl: eth0 and wlan0 should not have an IP address, only br0 sbould23:37
ScotchaXaXin: I believe the param should be somewhere like --initial23:37
aXaXinScotch: i don't have ati drivers installed what so ever..23:38
[B]randonBilliard, didnt think it'd work23:38
foul_owlphix: i am using the computer for irc right now23:38
nightshadecool23:38
phixfoul_owl: so use another one :)23:38
loshadavidstriga: I googled 'python irc channel' and there was a channel listed in the very first entry...23:38
foul_owli did the steps before, then rebooted when it didn'y work23:38
Kcmatttirsm: I have used that post to do the install and followed it all the way down to the bottom but when he says that Wlan0 should start up nothing happens :(23:38
Kcmatt*trism:23:38
nightshadephix: not everybody has a sh*tload of computers23:38
phixfoul_owl: when you reboot you need to type in the bridge commands again23:38
ScotchaXaXin: and when you install it, it crashes, right ?23:38
eidofoul_owl, can you look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing?action=show&redirect=InternetConnectionSharing it may work for you23:39
nightshadejust me and the other dorks...23:39
foul_owlphix: can you pastebin the complete command list?23:39
aXaXinScotch: perfectly right lol23:39
aXaXinll23:39
aXaXinnow you get my problem lol23:39
jimsshi all, i would like to open a file i am using tar xvf file.tgz but is not working, any other command to  run and install this file please?23:39
ScotchaXaXin: did you install it through "Hardware Drivers" ?23:39
phixnightshade: computers->n == (2 != aShitload);23:39
=== toXic is now known as Guest14281
aXaXinno apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx23:39
phixfoul_owl: sure23:39
loshajimss: usually a tgz is compressed. Try tar xvzf file.tgz23:40
foul_owleido: thanks, will look at that too!23:40
davidstrigalosha: Thanks, I'll try that! but the last time I tried googleing it I found my self in a polish channel with not very friendly people in it. lol.23:40
phixfoul_owl: but you want to add it into /etc/network/interfaces23:40
jimssk let me try23:40
ScotchaXaXin: try it, I believe there are more packages to install and some other configuration which this tool makes. go ahead and give this a try23:40
phixfoul_owl: and since you are using Ubuntu network manager is going to screw with you23:40
rictecjimss, tar -xvzf23:40
loshadavidstriga: :-)23:40
phixI hate network manager23:40
Kcmatttrism: I have noticed though that in my Network connections there doesn't seem to be a Wlan023:40
phixIt is useless and annoying23:40
foul_owlphix: i think that might have been a problem earlier23:40
phixWill the next verison of ubuntu have it?23:40
trismKcmatt: yeah, wlan0 won't show up until ndiswrapper registers it23:41
foul_owlphix: how do i list wifi access points from command line and connect?23:41
loshaphix: lots of people seem to prefer to use wicd instead of network manager...23:41
trismKcmatt: not really sure what else to try, I don't have any experience with that particular device23:41
usserphix, like it or not NM is here to stay ;)23:41
phixwhat is wicd?23:41
aXaXinScotch: it says : aticonfig is not installed, you can install it by : apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx23:41
phixfoul_owl: iwlist wlan0 scanning23:41
loshaphix: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/23:42
phixfoul_owl: Connecting is slightly trickier, is it WPA?23:42
aXaXinScotch: did i understand you?23:42
Kcmatttrism: Its ok :P I may just buy a new one that is fully supported as it keeps crashing in xp :)23:42
ScotchaXaXin: well install it through the Hardware Drivers software I mentionned23:42
foul_owlphix: nope23:42
ctmjr!info wicd > phix23:42
phixfoul_owl: WEP? no encryptiokn?23:42
aXaXini tried, it's empty23:42
ScotchaXaXin: it is under System->hardware drivers23:42
phixlosha: thnx23:42
foul_owlphix: public wifi23:42
phixfoul_owl: ok good :) makes it easier23:43
phixfoul_owl: ok and another question, why do you want to bridge eth0 and wlan0 for?23:43
=== ichat is now known as ichat[afk]
aXaXinno retricted or proprietary driver listed23:43
phixfoul_owl: you do relise that your neighbours (ppl within 200Mtrs of your house) will be able to sniff unencrypted packets over your wlan and possibably even your wired network23:44
foul_owli need to get internet on my main computer which has no wifi card that can pick up router signal23:44
foul_owlphix: yes, i realize this23:44
phixfoul_owl: you could just use routing instead of bridging23:44
foul_owlfor stuff i care about, i use https and ssh23:44
aXaXinScotch: no restricted or proprietary driver listed23:44
jack__got a cmake error: /usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory23:44
jack__  collect2: ld returned 1 exit status23:44
phixfoul_owl: easier to setup and you won't get messed around by network manager23:45
aXaXinScotch: i've been in many forums... and nothing....23:45
jack__does anyone knows which file that is or how can I find it?23:45
nightshadewhats the newest question?23:45
loshajack__: something you haven't installed. apt-get install build-essentials ?23:45
ScotchaXaXin: hmm... You'll probably have to install xorg-driver-fglrx by yourself then. But get some documentation from google first, there's probably a xorg.conf that's there for X70023:45
foul_owlphix: should i just use this tutorial that eido sent : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing?action=show&redirect=InternetConnectionSharing#Gateway%20set%20up23:45
phixfoul_owl: what is your network address for wlan0 and eth0?23:46
jhattarawhen i mount a harddrive and try to ls it i get "reading directory .: Input/output error", the disk doesn't show at all in gparted, but lshw finds it, but with no information other than its size23:46
bob1what kida driver you would like to install ?23:46
foul_owlwlan is 192.168.2.223:46
foul_owleth0 is not connected23:46
loshajhattara: please paste the output from sudo fdisk -l <--- that's a lowercase L23:47
phixfoul_owl: also, why arnt you using WPA / or at least WEP for on your wireless network?23:47
SeaPhorfoul_owl, belkin router??23:47
=== jra is now known as Guest14854
phixfoul_owl: hmmmmmm23:47
jhattaralosha, absolutely nothing on that disk23:47
zealiodhow can i read what 802.11q tag is being passed from a switch to my lan port on incoming packets?23:47
aXaXinScotch: thank's... I'll see what i can find....23:47
ScotchaXaXin: have fun and good luck23:47
phixfoul_owl: You should read some tutorials, but you don't need to use NAT since you can access your wireless router and add in a manual route right?23:47
phixfoul_owl: you can edit the routing table on your wireless router?23:48
loshajhattara: I'd like to know if dmesg has an entry for it. Is it sata, pata, or usb?23:48
eidophix, correct me if i wrong but foul just needs to set eth0 to the same gateway as wan0 and maybe a static in iptables23:48
bob1foul owl try to log in 2 your router23:48
foul_owlphix: i can access it, but i haven't tried yet. it probably has some really shit http interface with little to no options :P23:48
jhattaralosha, pata, i'll check the dmesg23:48
mQQshis there a way for me to view the wireless connections in Terminal?23:48
phixfoul_owl: give it a go :) see if you can access the routing table23:49
phixeido: ok, I will correct you :)23:49
SeaPhorphix, if its the Belkin router i believe, it is crappy but can be done23:49
quimkaosis empathy a mod of pidgin?23:49
loshajhattara: and sudo fdisk -l also please23:49
mrweshas the feeding frenzy began?23:49
losha!slow23:49
ubottuThe Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates.  Also, try changing !mirrors23:49
foul_owlphix: ok never mind, i don't have the password23:49
jhattaralosha, just as i said "sudo fdisk -l" gives absolutely nothing on the harddrive i have problems with23:49
phixeido: his wireless router needs to know about the network on eth0 as well, it needs to know that the gateway of it is the ip address of his computer on wlan023:49
bob1foul_owl otherwise try a other kernel23:49
phixeido: he also needs to enable ipv4 packet forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf or /etc/ufw/sysctl.conf23:50
loshajhattara: that's a bad sign, you understand. So does dmesg see it?23:50
vigoquimkaos: I like Empathy.23:50
mbeierlanyone else here have an asus eeepc that won't turn on (ie: power light and wifi light come on, but no bios)?23:50
bob1yes i have one23:50
phixeido: he might also want to setup a DHCP server on his computer (the one with the wireless and wired interface cards)23:50
jhattaralosha, how can i see from dmesg when the data was written ?23:51
bob1mbeierl23:51
phix~pb23:51
foul_owlok, so i can't access my router23:51

phixfoul_owl: why?23:51
phixfoul_owl: hmmm then you will either need to setup NAT or bridge23:51
mbeierlbob1: ever had power-on problems?  My daughters eeepc 900a just went belly-up from the looks of it...23:52
jhattaralosha, here's the most resent dmesg: http://pastebin.com/d428866b923:52
foul_owlphix: i don't have the password, and it's not my router, so i don't want to reset it i might piss some people off23:52
loshajhattara: you're just looking for the disk label (which should have been probed at boot time). No disk label === no disk detected23:52
SeaPhorfoul_owl, try blank passwd?23:52
quimkaosvigo you do? bu is it a mod or not?23:52
SeaPhorooo23:52
phixfoul_owl: try admin / password23:52
phixfoul_owl: admin / blank password23:52
mrwesfoul_owl, that's why you can't login; cuz it's not your router :P23:52
jhattaralosha, i'm looking for it's dev23:52
loshajhattara: is that the disk? The 250GB on /dev/sdb ?23:52
bob1mbeierl23:52
foul_owlphix: tried those, it doesn't even ask for a username, just password23:52
jhattaralosha, yeah, that's it23:53
vigoquimkaos: It is a re-write, one moment, I am pulling up the docs on it.23:53
foul_owlyes, i would rather not mess with the router. i think i would like to try setting up the bridge23:53
jhattaralosha, here's the previous dmesg entry: http://pastebin.com/d19a80af023:53
SeaPhorfoul_owl, phix, it is a Belkin right?23:53
loshajhattara: that's good. that means the kernel sees it on /dev/sdb.23:53
bob1mbeierl your eepc had startup problems ?23:53
foul_owlseaphor: yes, it is, im not gonna mess with it though23:53
loshajhattara: so try sudo gparted /dev/sdb23:53
SeaPhorok foul_owl23:53
foul_owli would really like to learn how to set up a bridge23:53
SeaPhorlook at #netorking23:54
mbeierlbob1: yes, first time - today.  Turning on with power button results in completely black screen, no backlight, no bios, no sound, and just the "lightbulb" and "wifi" lights are on.  No other activity at all23:54
jhattaralosha, "/dev/sdb: unrecognised disk label" in terminal and gparted says the drive is unallocated23:54
vigoquimkaos: It is a Gnome write to replace Pidgin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empathy_(software)23:54
quimkaosi would love that setting screens in ubuntu were easy23:55
phixfoul_owl: I told you23:55
jhattaralosha, and it had a full sized ext4 partition23:55
eidofoul_owl, if you have the time, read that article i think you can get away without know much about the router23:55
quimkaosty vigo23:55

phixfoul_owl: you will need to then use dhclient br0 to get an IP address23:57
ncfi1013hi23:57
phixfoul_owl: then computers in your wired network will be able to access it23:58
jhattaralosha, are there any other log files that might have record of the drive ? it worked fine yesterday and i haven't rebooted the computer in two weeks23:58
