| phix | foul_owl: you will then need to write this in /etc/network/interfaces in the format that that file expects to get it working after a reboot | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| phix | foul_owl: yes | 00:00 |
| phix | foul_owl: the ip address of eth0 and wlan0 should be nothing (set to 0.0.0.0) | 00:00 |
| SeaPhor | foul_owl, btw,, i have one of those Belkin routers,, as soon as i get another i'm gonna use the Belkin for batting practice until there's nothing left to beat | 00:00 |
| vigo | Now I need assistance. I want to try this RedNotebook on Hardy. but it says I have to update or change some Repositories settings, http://digitaldump.wordpress.com/2009/05/15/ubuntu-repository/..or I can download the .deb from a link on that page, I think the Repository change is the way to go, am I correct? | 00:00 |
| foul_owl | seaphor: word. wrt54g is where its at | 00:01 |
| eido | SirTopHat, man echo .... not much that i can think of, maybe if you wrote a script and want to display output on where it is at to the person | 00:01 |
| ncfi1013 | i just installed the new version of firefox and i cant get any torrents to open in ktorrent when i click on a torrent link. ive already checked to see if it is already set up to do that and it is. is there something im missing? is the new firefox in its beta? got any tips, suggestions, pointers? | 00:01 |
| mrwes | linksys with Tomato and QoS is killer | 00:01 |

| alejandro | is there a way to rebuild the fstab in ubuntu? | 00:02 |
| phix | alejandro: sudo nano /etc/fstab | 00:02 |
| ktzkk | what can i do? | 00:02 |
| mrwes | phix, wouldn't argue with that :) | 00:02 |
| phix | mrwes: :) | 00:02 |
| mrwes | phix, although my linksys never hiccups | 00:02 |
| losha | jhattara: you can look in /var/log e.g. messages and see if any errors were logged. See also smartmontools to access the disk's SMART data. http://gsmartcontrol.berlios.de/home/index.php/en/About | 00:02 |
| alejandro | I resized a windows partition then created a new one outside the local ubuntu installation | 00:02 |
| phix | ktzkk: curl up in a ball and rock | 00:03 |
| mrwes | heh | 00:03 |
| alejandro | now I try to mount the new partition but I dont have write permissions to it | 00:03 |
| phix | mrwes: yeah, my only experience with linksys is with the SPA3202 or something, ATA, it is a POS! | 00:03 |
| === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ | ||
| mrwes | alejandro, check the permissions to the mount point for the partition | 00:04 |
| phix | Ubuntu running asterisk with a digium card is the best :) | 00:04 |
| phix | Go Ubuntu! | 00:04 |
| alejandro | its being mounted by hal | 00:04 |
| foul_owl | alright, im gonna give this a try | 00:04 |
| jhattara | losha, found this line in the messages a bit after the last time i remember accessing the files on the drive: http://pastebin.com/d4ca48203 | 00:04 |
| foul_owl | cheers all! | 00:04 |
| losha | phix: I have a WRTG54v3 running tomato firmware that's rock solid. Never had much luck with Belkin stuff... | 00:04 |
| foul_owl | phix: thanks for help | 00:04 |
| foul_owl | eido: you too! | 00:04 |
| phix | foul_owl: any time | 00:04 |

| stea | Hi, I need some help : I have a neighbor's Pentium 3 with 128mb ram and 10gb hard drive - it just needs a new OS that can connect to the net via ethernet for e-mail. I looked at the new ubuntu requirments and it doesn't seem that this laptop will handle it - is it still possible or can somebody please give me a link for an alternate? | 00:05 |
| mrwes | losha, I'm with you brutha! | 00:05 |
| phix | losha: I have nor never will touch anything Belkin related, not even rebranded stuff | 00:05 |
| alejandro | xubuntu | 00:05 |
| mrwes | stea, try puppy linux | 00:05 |
| vigo | stea: try Alternate or Xubuntu? | 00:06 |
| mrwes | stea, you can have that box up and running in 5 minutes | 00:06 |
| phix | mrwes: NO!!! Ubuntu!!! | 00:06 |
| phix | :) | 00:06 |
| mrwes | phix, I wouldn't put Xbuntu on that box | 00:06 |
| evilaim | *yawn* | 00:06 |
| eido | stea, or you can try damn small linux | 00:06 |
| vigo | !alternate | stea | 00:06 |
| ubottu | stea: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 00:06 |
| stea | mrwes puppy linux is your recommendation? or as others suggested alternate cd | 00:06 |
| mrwes | stea, puppy is ~100mb and will run completely in RAM | 00:07 |
| eido | stea, puppy or damn small linux would be my suggestions | 00:07 |
| mrwes | stea, can you boot from the CD drive on that box? | 00:07 |
| piotrus | cześć! Ziomale z Polski!!! | 00:07 |
| piotrus | tu Wasz Bananos:):) | 00:07 |
| stea | mrwes - yes it's an old dell inspiron 4000 | 00:07 |
| phix | stea: I have Xubuntu running on a P3 500 - 700MHz, 192Mb RAM, 20Gb HDD | 00:07 |
| losha | jhattara: that's a bad sign. You tried to read a disk block and couldn't, so the drive reallocated (i.e. moved) it to a spare sector elsewhere on the disk. That could be a one-off, or the beginning of total drive failure. Next step is to look at the SMART data. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T. | 00:08 |
| stea | from the year 2000 :) | 00:08 |
| mrwes | stea, you're good to go then -- you can stop by #puppylinux for help | 00:08 |
| stea | i think - it's my neighbor's - she's freaking out that her windows 2000 bonked on her and needs to connect online for work | 00:08 |
| jhattara | losha, installing smartmontools as we speak | 00:08 |
| Stevethepirate | Hmm, although probably the wrong place to ask, anyone here have an idea how to retrieve metadata from a http audio stream? | 00:08 |
| Stevethepirate | [in python] | 00:09 |
| piotrus | co słychac? | 00:09 |
| piotrus | hello ello! | 00:09 |
| SirTopHat | emacs or nano | 00:09 |
| xerxes | what's up...can I get a little help with some ubuntu? | 00:09 |
| mrwes | !ask | xerxes | 00:09 |
| ubottu | xerxes: 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. :-) | 00:09 |
| ultamatt | hey all, is there a channel for java/swing related questions on ubuntu? | 00:09 |
| eido | stea, your biggest hurdle is going to be your window manager phix is suggesting xfce which is a good choice, damn small linux uses fluxbox and puppy uses something small too but cannot recall | 00:09 |
| xerxes | word | 00:10 |
| nicklas_ | looks like kubuntu 9.10 will be really good, just wondering if you can use just konqueror, or if you will need firefox | 00:10 |
| mrwes | eido, jwm for puppy | 00:10 |
| mrwes | eido, Joe's Window Manager | 00:10 |
| vigo | stea: I have to agree with arwes on that, puppy or dyne:obolic or dam small linux are good, but I would try the Alternate , just cause I'm too geeky for this shirt. | 00:10 |
| xerxes | ok...bit of a long story but ill sum it up as much as possible | 00:10 |
| J1mmyW1reman | ok, I'm on ubuntu 9.10 moblin remix on a asus eee pc | 00:10 |
| J1mmyW1reman | and just have to say I'm lovin it | 00:10 |
| losha | jhattara: check out GSmartControl too. It's by far the easiest way to do access the smart data. http://reformedmusings.wordpress.com/2009/01/10/monitor-your-hard-drives-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid/ | 00:10 |
| supermatthew | so question, ISPConfig won't let random people create websites without me knowing like ehcp? | 00:11 |
| Termana | J1mmyW1reman: Why not tell the Karmic room that? #ubuntu+1 | 00:11 |
| stea | of these, which one will work the easiest? :) i've installed the live ubuntu cd before on my laptop - but never tried the alternate - my background is sub-par basic at the least - i'm just trying to help this person out with something fast so she can get her work done | 00:11 |
| === spc_ is now known as spc | ||
| J1mmyW1reman | ok cool this was just the room that opened up default from the chat | 00:11 |
| === Tehfoe is now known as Darkfoe | ||
| Termana | stea - why not try running the default live CD and seeing if it works fast enough before going to alternatives? | 00:12 |
| xerxes | i tried to install arch linux a while ago and the install got fudged up somehow because my cdrom drive wasnt working, so i said screw it and I bought a new drive. instead of trying to install arch linux i tried to install ubuntu...problems insued | 00:12 |
| dorkface | Hi all. what would be the best channel to ask questions about setting up RAID? | 00:12 |
| eido | J1mmyW1reman, this is ubuntus main irc channel | 00:12 |
| coz_ | dorkface, try ##linux | 00:12 |
| J1mmyW1reman | ok thanx bai | 00:12 |
| fjyfq | :-X | 00:12 |
| Termana | stea - you don't even have to install it, just see how it runs. | 00:12 |
| coz_ | jimmy51_home, your leaving just as you arrived? | 00:12 |
| dorkface | coz_: ty | 00:13 |
| GENT | anytime i use any bitorrent application or play second life my brother complains of lag on his xbox (the bar drops to red )is there something that i can do so that i will not be constantly be bitched at by brother | 00:13 |
| supermatthew | is there a channel on Freenode thats for random chat | 00:13 |
| stea | Termana - yeah that's right i forgot about that | 00:13 |
| coz_ | dorkface, no problem they should have a more overall troubleshooting experience | 00:13 |
| stea | but will 130mb still run on regular ubuntu Termana? | 00:13 |
| sagaci | GENT: limit your bandwidth | 00:13 |
| stea | ram^ | 00:13 |
| GENT | how | 00:13 |
| sagaci | GENT: do you use transmission | 00:13 |
| xerxes | I put the cd in the drive and It actually tries to load arch linux not ubuntu | 00:14 |
| ultamatt | My java/swing application won't terminate correctly, is this a ubuntu specific problem, or my crappy code? http://utilitybase.com/paste/20992 | 00:14 |
| mrwes | GENT, you need a quality of service on your router | 00:14 |
| GENT | no i use deluge but i could use tramamisioun if that would fix the problem | 00:14 |
| supermatthew | stop using dialup? | 00:14 |
| xerxes | i have the bios set to load from cd | 00:14 |
| xerxes | but no dice | 00:14 |
| eido | stea, if you try a full ubuntu cd i would try like phix said xubuntu, which uses xfce | 00:14 |
| sagaci | GENT: just go to preferences and limit your download and upload kb/s | 00:14 |
| xerxes | any isea? | 00:14 |
| GENT | no i have to use dial up because i live in a rural area | 00:14 |
| xerxes | idea^ | 00:14 |
| supermatthew | GENT: on a side note, setup QoS on you router, most new ones make it easy to do it | 00:14 |
| GENT | supermatthew, what will that do | 00:15 |
| supermatthew | wait you really do use dialup? | 00:15 |
| stea | eido - it says on xubuntu : CDs require 128MB RAM to run, or 192MB RAM to install. / her's only has 130mb ram | 00:15 |
| Termana | stea - I don't know weather 130mb of ram will run Ubuntu. But it can't do any harm to try. If it works it works, if not, then you know it hasn't worked, move on to the alternatives. | 00:15 |
| GENT | supermatthew, yes i use embarck | 00:15 |
| Termana | I run Ubuntu on 512mb of RAM quite fine | 00:16 |
| xerxes | so who's the gugu in here lol | 00:16 |
| xerxes | guru^ | 00:16 |
| GENT | sorry embarq | 00:16 |
| stea | appreciate all the advice here peeps - but Termana - 512mb ram isn't 128mb ram :) | 00:16 |
| eido | stea, grab puppy or damn small linux | 00:16 |
| Termana | stea - yeah I know. Still, I think its worth at least trying, like I said, does no harm to try. | 00:16 |
| losha | xerxes: we tend to specialize in different areas. Ask your question and see who answers... | 00:16 |
| GENT | supermatthew, http://www.centurylink.com/ | 00:17 |
| xerxes | word | 00:17 |
| supermatthew | doesn't look like dialup | 00:17 |
| supermatthew | but anyways | 00:17 |
| losha | GENT: there's always the obvious, easy solution: do your downloading when your bro isn't using his xbox... | 00:18 |
| ultamatt | does anybody know of a java help forum? | 00:18 |
| jhattara | losha, thanks for the help, i'll have to continue diagonosing it at another time | 00:18 |
| eido | stea, damn small linux will run on 32 mb ram | 00:18 |
| losha | jhattara: understood. Good luck... | 00:18 |
| GENT | losha, that is imposable due to my schedule | 00:18 |
| Termana | GENT - why not try limiting your download speed? | 00:18 |
| supermatthew | Gent: QoS basicly tells the router, if it sees a packet for this kind of connection, forward it first, or last, or somthing like that | 00:18 |
| GENT | Termana, to what perfered settings | 00:19 |
| JPSman | How do I disable the middle click paste feature of Gedit? | 00:19 |
| Termana | GENT - I don't know but if your looking for an app to do it, I think there is one called pyshaper | 00:19 |
| losha | GENT: downloads can pretty much run unattended. Start it before you go to bed and then turn it off in the morning or something... | 00:19 |
| LjL | JPSman: that's not a feature of gedit, it's a feature of all X apps. | 00:19 |
| supermatthew | Gent: so if you setup QoS to prioritse his Xbox connections, then he shoudln't experince slow downs when you download | 00:19 |
| GENT | losha, ah but he arives home before i do | 00:19 |
| supermatthew | note the word shoudln't | 00:20 |
| supermatthew | in the case of my DSL router, QoS has no affect | 00:20 |
| assoguerozen_sx | kde3.5.10 can be used in ubuntu actually? | 00:20 |
| losha | GENT: some clients you can arrange for them to start & shut off depending on time of day. Didn't azureus have a plugin for that? | 00:20 |
| LjL | assoguerozen_sx: no. the last version that can use it is Hardy. | 00:20 |
| assoguerozen_sx | damn | 00:20 |
| GENT | azures is a peace of bloted shit | 00:20 |
| LjL | !langauge | GENT | 00:21 |
| ubottu | GENT: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 00:21 |
| assoguerozen_sx | im looking for some ppa or smthg | 00:21 |
| GENT | sorry , but on a side not it is | 00:21 |
| JPSman | How do I disable the middle click paste feature? | 00:21 |
| Termana | GENT - I still think you should try limiting your speed with something like pyshaper. Really, its the only way because your trying to use more bandwidth than you have available. | 00:21 |
| supermatthew | http://news.softpedia.com/news/uTorrent-under-Ubuntu-in-3-Easy-Steps-49037.shtml | 00:21 |
| LjL | !kde3 | assoguerozen_sx | 00:21 |
| ubottu | assoguerozen_sx: Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page | 00:21 |
| losha | GENT: There are other clients with similar functionality I believe,... | 00:21 |
| eido | GENT, you are correct :P ahh java | 00:21 |
| mrwes | GENT, install a real torrent client -- rtorrent :) | 00:21 |
| pwnt | hm | 00:22 |
| LjL | JPSman: to my knowledge, you don't, short of disabling middle click entirely, but i'm not sure. | 00:22 |
| xerxes37072 | is there any reason why my comp would try load a preexisting install of archlinux instead of running my ubuntu install cd? | 00:22 |
| assoguerozen_sx | oh | 00:22 |
| assoguerozen_sx | thx | 00:22 |
| kristian_ | i converted a .bin/.cue to a .iso file, by following the instructions given here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManageDiscImages. however it gives no instruction on how to mount a .iso file. could someone help a poor soul. :-) | 00:22 |
| LjL | !mountiso | kristian_ | 00:22 |
| ubottu | kristian_: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 00:22 |
| supermatthew | i thihk that the guy who makes utorrent should make a linix verson just for ubuntu | 00:22 |
| kristian_ | LjL: thanks! :-) | 00:22 |
| losha | xerxes37072: if the cd can't be read, the system will probably default to booting from the hard drive. Also, the bios may be set to prefer the hard drive... | 00:22 |
| xerxes37072 | i heard that super matthew | 00:23 |
| JPSman | LjL: its not under System->Preferences->Mouse or System->Preferences->Keyboard Shorcut | 00:23 |
| supermatthew | then call it "µtorrent for µbuntu" | 00:23 |
| xerxes37072 | right...but I set the bios to boot from cd | 00:23 |
| Roey | I have a tricky situation: I have /dev/md0 (which is /dev/sd{a,b}1) that's this puny 100 MiB partition at the start of my partition table. I want to boot off of /, which has its own /boot; / is on /dev/md1 (that is, /dev/sd{a,b}2). How do I do this neatly? | 00:23 |
| losha | supermatthew: very few windows developers care about producing linux versions of anything... | 00:23 |
| bigdavejoker | everytime I open open office it opens the document in a workspace I can't access | 00:23 |
| Termana | If you can't access the workspace, how do you know its there? | 00:24 |
| losha | xerxes37072: then maybe your cd is bad... | 00:24 |
| supermatthew | wait if i ran µtorrent through an uppercaseafier, it would write MTORRENT? | 00:24 |
| LEE20 | hey all | 00:24 |
| xerxes37072 | i checked the md5sum as per the website | 00:24 |
| LEE20 | question could i install ubuntu on a different drive | 00:24 |
| xerxes37072 | and it all apears go for launch | 00:24 |
| bigdavejoker | Termana: it shows up in the botom window next to my primary workspace and I can see the open office icon | 00:24 |
| LEE20 | i got 2 drives | 00:24 |
| bigdavejoker | but it won't let me drag the program into my primary workspace | 00:24 |
| xerxes37072 | and burned the disc immage | 00:24 |
| Termana | bigdavejoker - so you can go into the next workspace? | 00:25 |

| bigdavejoker | nope I click it and nothing happens | 00:25 |
| LjL | JPSman: there are some (dubiou) instructions around on google; however, they pertain to previous versions of ubuntu, since they involve modifing xorg.conf, and i believe that's not the way input devices are managed anymore. | 00:25 |

| Guest54006 | hello | 00:25 |
| Termana | bigdavejoker: what about when you press Ctrl + Alt + Right Arrow ? | 00:25 |
| losha | xerxes37072: got something else e.g. windows cd so you can check if boot-from-cd works in general? | 00:25 |
| LjL | JPSman: X | 00:25 |
| bigdavejoker | Termana: no change either | 00:25 |
| xerxes37072 | losha: ill try that | 00:26 |

| losha | !flash | 00:27 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 00:27 |
| LjL | LEE20: the installer will let you pick the drive to install on. just pay close attention to the instructions give by the installer | 00:27 |
| malos | ...)Not Win 7 though....() | 00:27 |
| bigdavejoker | Termana: not sure | 00:27 |
| losha | Guest54006: see above ubottu msg re: flash | 00:28 |
| LEE20 | so when the computer starts it will give me the option to pick what operating system i pick | 00:28 |
| LEE20 | i just dont want it on windows 07... | 00:28 |

| Termana | No problem bigdavejoker - hopefully it solves it :P | 00:31 |
| DYnamo__ | Hello, I want to start and xsession over SSH so that I can login through vnc. How can I do that? | 00:31 |
| ziomus | Do you guys know any good programs to work wiyh pictures. Modify them and stuff? | 00:31 |
| Termana | ziomus: GIMP? | 00:31 |
| drpcken | DYnamo__, i'm trying to do pretty much the same thing | 00:32 |
| drpcken | i can remote in no problem, but if I restart ubuntu I have to log in manually before I can log in remotely. not sure what I need to do | 00:32 |
| bigdavejoker | Termana: that did it thanks I'm going to go look up metacity so I can figure out why it worked | 00:32 |
| xerxes37072 | any idea what "pxe-e61: media test failure" would indicate on the start up screen | 00:33 |
| losha | DYnamo__: something like: tightvncserver :1 | 00:33 |
| Toyota | sup? | 00:33 |
| eido | ziomus, gimp is like a photoshop replacement inkscape is for vector graphics | 00:33 |
| Guest54006 | after installing the flash, youtube still does not work, I just get a black portion where the video should be and no play/pause bar along with no sound | 00:33 |
| drpcken | losha, how would we get it to start when the ubuntu box boots, but before anyone logs in? | 00:33 |
| ziomus | Can u work with gimp. Cause i want to print the picture the same size of the cover plastic case | 00:33 |
| Toyota | I'll soon find out | 00:33 |
| LEE20 | could someone assist me in setting up ubuntu..iam live cd now | 00:34 |
| Termana | bigdavejoker: No problem. Metacity is the default composition manager. It was a bug in the compiz coposition manager that wouldn't allow workspaces to be accessed | 00:34 |
| eido | ziomus, both have irc channels too #gimp and #inkscape | 00:34 |
| ziomus | Like u know they have in blackbuster | 00:34 |
| bob1 | guest54006 restart the computer. | 00:34 |

| xerxes37072 | yes you are guest | 00:35 |
| stea | bottom line guys n' gals - has anyone been able to run regular ubuntu w/ ~130mb ram? | 00:35 |

| hipitihop | I'm running HMDI audio and each time I reboot I need to go into the mixer and re-enable one of the switches.... how can I get things to stick across reboots? | 00:35 |
| losha | drpcken: DYnamo__: you could launch it from /etc/rc.local which runs once at boot time. Note you need some config to get tightvncserver running e.g. at least a password and xstartup file in ~/.vnc | 00:35 |
| tiox | Can somebody help me? I'm dead in the water here. | 00:35 |
| LEE20 | anyone? | 00:35 |
| losha | a|3x: stop running beta code. 8.04 LTS is rock steady... | 00:35 |
| tiox | I'm still on the same problem, and I feel like killing my modem developer. | 00:35 |
| krummlauf | ok kde crashed on me | 00:36 |
| ultamatt_ | ##java | 00:36 |
| a|3x | losha, why do they give you 9 by default on the site | 00:36 |
| krummlauf | sup wif dat? | 00:36 |

| === gh0zt is now known as svpn | ||
| ziomus | #gimp | 00:36 |
| losha | a|3x: because all developers are optimists. If *I* ruled the world, 8.04 would be the default install.... | 00:36 |
| eido | ziomus, looks like there is Koverartist and Cdcover for making DVD covers although I have never used either | 00:37 |
| tiox | I have an Atheros AR8138 modem, and the developer had made it so I need rpm to build the drivers with. | 00:37 |
| ziomus | but not on dvd | 00:37 |
| eido | ziomus, if you want to join the gimp channell type "/join #gimp" without quotes | 00:37 |
| matelot | Q: sound from Browser not coming from USB speaker but laptop speaker - how to fix ? | 00:37 |
| a|3x | losha, 8.04 doesn't have wpa working by default which is so gay | 00:37 |
| s1gmab3ta | hey guys, trying to setup my home SSH server, i am following https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html | 00:37 |
| ziomus | Its just where u put dvd/cd in it | 00:37 |
| s1gmab3ta | i am at the step where ive made my key and use ssh-copy-id to send it to my laptop | 00:38 |
| tiox | Ubuntu doesn't do rpm, damn it. Is there a way to force it> I'm running a Windows machine and I wanna make sure I can get online with the live CD before I make the switch fully. | 00:38 |
| s1gmab3ta | but i get ssh: connect to host msxmini port 22: Connection refused | 00:38 |
| s1gmab3ta | where msxmini is the name of my laptop | 00:38 |
| eido | ziomus, Koverartist and Cdcover | 00:38 |
| losha | a|3x: please don't use that term pejoratively | 00:39 |
| a|3x | losha, sorry | 00:39 |
| s1gmab3ta | anyone know what i can do to fix it? | 00:39 |
| LEE20 | is 120gig enough for ubuntu | 00:39 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: That's only required if you want to be able to login without entering a password | 00:39 |
| s1gmab3ta | aaaaaaaand i do | 00:39 |
| losha | a|3x: if it's true about wpa, please submit a bug report. It would be nice if *one* ubuntu release worked relatively well... | 00:39 |
| usser | s1gmab3ta, try connecting by ip instead of a hostname | 00:40 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: It requires SSH to be up and running on your laptop as well | 00:40 |
| bluntz_ | alien will handle rpm | 00:40 |
| s1gmab3ta | ks3: a ssh server? | 00:40 |
| ultamatt_ | please god could somebody tell me why am i still getting this error trying to change to the ##java channel? You need to be identified to join that channel | 00:40 |
| krummlauf | kde crashed did u herd me | 00:40 |
| usser | ks3, no it doesnt | 00:40 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: If you have the key password protected, email it to yourself or copy it to a USB key | 00:40 |
| ultamatt_ | I registered my nick and I'm still getting it!!! | 00:40 |
| tiox | Okay, can I get the ailen library from archive.ubuntu.com? | 00:41 |
| tiox | And install locally? | 00:41 |
| bluntz_ | prolly | 00:41 |
| drpcken | what would in rc.local to start the remote desktop service before a user logs in? | 00:41 |
| ultamatt_ | hello???!?!?!?!?!?11!?!?!?1 | 00:41 |
| ks3 | usser: Perhaps I'm misreading the ssh-copy-id man page, but it specifically states "ssh-copy-id is a script that uses ssh to log into a remote machine" | 00:41 |
| losha | ultamatt_: according to my 'whois', you are not an 'identified user | 00:41 |
| s1gmab3ta | ks3: what do i do with it on the lappy | 00:41 |
| krazedx86 | g | 00:41 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: Copy it to ~/.ssh/id_dsa (presuming it's a DSA key, not RSA) | 00:42 |

| s1gmab3ta | ks3: then do i have to do anything locally? | 00:42 |
| eido | !wacom | 00:43 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wacom | 00:43 |
| eido | err | 00:43 |
| ultamatt_ | Can anyone please help me? | 00:44 |
| losha | ultamatt_: after registering, you also have to identify: /msg nickserv identify PASSWORD | 00:44 |
| losha | 00:44 | |
| MenZa | ultamatt_: This is not the channel for that; see #freenode. | 00:45 |
| s1gmab3ta | ks3: it says something about adding it to .ssh/authorized_keys | 00:45 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: If you've got the key generated on your laptop, you just need to copy the id_dsa.pub file to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the server... sorry if I was confused a bit... I was thinking you had generated the keys on the server side :) | 00:45 |
| s1gmab3ta | oh no | 00:45 |
| s1gmab3ta | i generated the key on the serve | 00:45 |
| ultamatt_ | AHA! that did it, thanks @losha | 00:46 |
| s1gmab3ta | is authorized_keys a folder? | 00:46 |
| xerxes37072 | any archlinux users in the house? | 00:46 |
| LjL | xerxes37072: try #archlinux | 00:46 |
| xerxes37072 | word | 00:46 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: Nope, .ssh is a folder, authorized_keys is just a text file with all the keys you want to be able to authenticate them | 00:46 |
| s1gmab3ta | ks3: so i just write the path to the file i generated | 00:46 |
| stea | eido - would you think that 8.04 would run on this machine? i was reading that that might possibly work | 00:46 |
| stea | eido what i saw from puppy linux/ damn small linux, she wouldn't be saving stuff on the physical hard drive? | 00:47 |
| eido | stea, might but 8.04 still uses gnome, plus you want the latest updates | 00:47 |
| Helsinkiii | hi | 00:47 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: Also, permissions on authorized_keys should be 0600... and as I think usser was getting at, ssh-copy-id should work as long as SSH is working on your server, so there may be an issue with your setup | 00:47 |
| Helsinkiii | Is there a way I can change which visual effects i want, and which i don't | 00:47 |
| ziomus | Eido wut was the program name again. I gotta write it down | 00:48 |
| Helsinkiii | i want to keep everything except for the floppy windows thing | 00:48 |
| losha | stea: you could try, but you're better off with a distro designed for tiny memory usage... | 00:48 |
| [B]randon | how come apt-get full-upgrade didnt work? | 00:48 |
| eido | stea, http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_to_the_Hard_Disk | 00:48 |
| s1gmab3ta | so sudo chmod 0600 authorizedkeys? | 00:48 |
| [B]randon | how come apt-get full-upgrade didnt work? | 00:48 |
| eido | ziomus, Koverartist or Cdcover | 00:49 |
| stea | losha - is there a distro that has openoffice already bundled in there by any chance? basically needs that to work with reading old ms word files and creating new documents and firefox for a browser | 00:49 |
| OerHeks | [B]randon , it will work, wait 3 days | 00:49 |
| ks3 | s1gmab3ta: If it's in /root, yes. If it's in your own user folder, don't need the sudo (and don't forget the _ in authorized_keys :) | 00:49 |
| ziomus | Thank u sir | 00:49 |
| eido | ziomus, Koverartist is going to need kde stuff if you are not already running kde | 00:49 |
| [B]randon | OerHeks, for what? | 00:49 |
| losha | stea: sorry, dunno offhand. Start googling.... | 00:49 |
| ziomus | Wuts kde? | 00:50 |
| s1gmab3ta | ks3: i got lazy about the _ but yeah i see what yo umean | 00:50 |

| sakekasi | how r u | 02:07 |
| Tohuw1 | gwiz: Use a proxy then? A halfway decent firewall should protect you regardless | 02:07 |
| sakekasi | today | 02:07 |
| firdau5 | I am fine | 02:07 |
| gwiz | ic, don't know how to use a proxy, can ya help me with that? | 02:07 |
| firdau5 | !support | 02:07 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: use the terminal to cd to the directory you extracted to, then type "make" then type "sudo make install" then type "sudo init 6" | 02:07 |
| ubottu | The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org | 02:07 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: "sudo init 6" will reboot your computer | 02:07 |
| jhb1608 | ok that is what I need to make sure] | 02:07 |
| maxagaz | how to free disk space on my disk ? | 02:07 |
| gwiz | why not just download the iso burn it, and do a fresh install? | 02:08 |
| panikkk | you don't need a proxy, just ask the ops for a cloak | 02:08 |
| panikkk | http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 02:08 |
| Geekneeus | maxagaz: Delete files | 02:08 |
| gwiz | resize your par | 02:08 |
| gwiz | yeah delete files you don't need | 02:08 |
| gwiz | what he/she said | 02:08 |
| Zohar | okm i heard a ubuntu dev got a 5 second bootup... how? | 02:08 |
| mb_again_ | add more disk space and connect at a mount point | 02:08 |
| sakekasi | karmic is really pro | 02:08 |
| maxagaz | Geekneeus, why not deleting the apt cache ? | 02:08 |
| sakekasi | just wanted to say | 02:08 |
| Geekneeus | maxagaz: You can also download UbuntuTweak and it'll clear your cache and old kernels | 02:08 |
| gwiz | mine is that fast | 02:08 |
| sakekasi | GUD JOB GUYS | 02:08 |
| FloodBot3 | sakekasi: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:08 |
| gwiz | ok so how do I set up a proxy, and wont' that pretty much slow my internet connection down? | 02:09 |
| jhb1608 | it is working Geekneeus | 02:09 |
| gwiz | I take it you can't download torrents if you proxy? | 02:09 |
| Geekneeus | maxagaz: You can also use bleachbit, to clear files, FSlint, etc | 02:09 |
| jhb1608 | waiting for the command make to done executing | 02:10 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: By working, I assume you mean it's compiling? | 02:10 |
| Zohar | im assuming a ssd was the culprit | 02:10 |
| jhb1608 | yes Geekneeus | 02:10 |
| mb_again_ | gwiz: a proxy can improve or worsen your connection. If latency is an issue it might hurt. If bandwidth is an issue and you go to the same places repeatedly it may help | 02:10 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: It'll take about 5-10 minutes usually, depending on the speed of your computer | 02:10 |
| gwiz | k, how do I set up a proxy then? | 02:10 |
| jhb1608 | I'm a patient man | 02:10 |
| gwiz | is this simple or hard? | 02:10 |
| gwiz | if it's hard I'll consort the boards | 02:11 |
| Geekneeus | gwiz: What do you want to set up a proxy for? | 02:11 |
| mfpb221 | anyone able to help me with this install issue?? gparted says 9.04 is there (and so does the live cd installer) but i'm not sure if the boot directory is all there.... and i just get stuck in memtest whenever i restart... | 02:11 |
| panikkk | what kind of proxy, why do you need one? | 02:11 |
| gwiz | do I need to? | 02:11 |
| Geekneeus | gwiz: There's many different types of proxies, just saying proxy isn't clear | 02:11 |
| mb_again_ | gwiz : man squid to set up your own. Your ISP may have one you can just use (my personal experience has been bad on that) | 02:11 |
| gwiz | if someone hacks me, I'll just reinstall, NO BIGGY! | 02:11 |
| iarp | hey, how do i change my password, it says "Bad: password too simple", private server so not overly worried about it being to simple | 02:11 |
| rinovan_ | ae...... | 02:11 |
| panikkk | gwiz: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 02:11 |
| gwiz | if they can get past my 16 character password who cares eh? | 02:12 |
| Geekneeus | gwiz: A proxy will not prevent someone from "hacking" you | 02:12 |
| gwiz | exactly | 02:12 |
| gwiz | so why proxy? | 02:12 |
| Jeruvy | iarp: where does it say this? If your talking about your user account on your own machine, feel free to disregard and continue. | 02:12 |
| Geekneeus | qwiz: Some proxies aren't just to hide your true i.p they have many features | 02:12 |
| brianV | +1 | 02:12 |
| gwiz | like hiding your online activities etc? | 02:13 |
| iarp | Jeruvy: well i type in passwd then my current password and then it asks for my new one but gives me the Bad: error | 02:13 |
| Zohar | i heard a ubuntu dev got a 5 second bootup, thats insane... but i couldnt find out how he did it | 02:13 |
| Geekneeus | qwiz: hide from who? | 02:13 |
| panikkk | or to trick you into thinking you have a safe proxy, meanwhile the proxy owner hacks you | 02:13 |
| gwiz | ok, I'm game, should I read the boards to learn how to set up a proxie, or can you guys help me with that? | 02:13 |
| gwiz | doh o.O | 02:13 |
| Jeruvy | iarp: where is it telling you this? | 02:14 |
| gwiz | malicious people Geekneeus | 02:14 |
| Geekneeus | gwiz: That's clearly up to you. If you ask correctly for help and research what you want before asking perhaps somebody would be happy to help | 02:14 |
| iarp | in my terminal, i forgot to add this is ubuntu server | 02:14 |
| gwiz | well I'm new to ubuntu 100% been on this like 4 days | 02:14 |
| Zohar | with coreboot and a ssd, do you think i could get ubuntu to bootup in 2 or 3 seconds? | 02:14 |
| Geekneeus | qwiz: It's not really that likely anybody is going to target you | 02:14 |
| gwiz | had to reinstall like 3 times now, cause I went to update and ubuntu just died on me :( | 02:14 |
| gwiz | everything keeps locking up when I use the update manager, any reason why? | 02:15 |
| murlidhar | i got errors while doing apt-get autoremove .......some dependency issues and i am not able to solve it ...... http://paste2.org/p/485793 | 02:15 |
| Zohar | gwiz, that sucks :D, keep at it | 02:15 |
| ChogyDan | gwiz: can you use a terminal? | 02:15 |
| gwiz | I'm NEW NEW to ubuntu hehe | 02:15 |
| brianV | which package is gnome-keyboard-properties in? | 02:15 |
| ChogyDan | murlidhar: sudo apt-get install -f | 02:15 |
| gwiz | I know how to use windows shell | 02:15 |
| Geekneeus | hmm, I see gwiz. Good luck | 02:15 |
| gwiz | like dos but nothing in ubuntu | 02:15 |
| murlidhar | ChogyDan: i tried ....u can see it in the pastebin | 02:16 |
| Jeruvy | iarp: you may want to review this documentation: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/en/man1/passwd.1.html | 02:16 |
| gwiz | I probably need to read the ubuntu bible :/ | 02:16 |
| panikkk | gwiz: you have a lot of ports open, you should close those | 02:16 |
| ChogyDan | murlidhar: sorry, I can't find it | 02:16 |
| gwiz | I love ubuntu, it beats windows 9 ways to sunday! | 02:17 |
| jhb1608 | lol | 02:17 |
| gwiz | this is day 4 on it... | 02:17 |

| murlidhar | ChogyDan: oops ....wait | 02:17 |
| mzawieska | hello | 02:17 |
| ChogyDan | gwiz: do you know how to open a terminal? | 02:17 |
| gwiz | I will only miss my games, but I know when I get good enough I'll be able to play on ubuntu again with my games | 02:17 |
| brianV | ChogyDan: hmm... I just realized it has a dependency on Pulseaudio, which frigs up WINE | 02:17 |
| gwiz | sorry ChogyDan I do not | 02:17 |
| mzawieska | any1 know good program to creat dvd single library case | 02:17 |
| brianV | ChogyDan: so when I removed pulse, it removed the control center | 02:17 |
| gwiz | I know how to open it, but not use it | 02:17 |
| ChogyDan | gwiz: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 02:18 |
| Pici | mzawieska: If you're asking about labels, I've heard good things about glabels | 02:18 |
| gwiz | it won't crash me? | 02:18 |
| mfpb221 | last time i'm asking.... please... if someone knows why a perfectly good iso seems to not be putting together my boot directory correctly no matter how many times i reinstall and reinstall please let me know. thanks. | 02:18 |
| murlidhar | ChogyDan: http://pastebin.ca/1644599 | 02:18 |
| gwiz | type sudo apt-get update? | 02:18 |
| mzawieska | I want to create picture lable on dvd cover | 02:18 |

| gwiz | k | 02:19 |
| mzawieska | i want to set up the same format as my dvd single library case is | 02:19 |
| gwiz | but first update? | 02:19 |

| extor | so that I can pick which daemons to run in whichever runlevels | 02:19 |
| panikkk | nmap | 02:20 |
| mzawieska | any1? | 02:20 |
| ChogyDan | murlidhar: try: sudo apt-get remove libtorrent-rasterbar5 | 02:20 |
| Helsinkiii | hi | 02:20 |
| Helsinkiii | when i ran ubuntu janitor it deleted my Skype, why is that? | 02:20 |
| Jeruvy | murlidhar: if you're trying to remove packages you shouldn't then try to install them :) | 02:21 |
| tyler_d2 | extor: why not just edit the symlinks from within your /etc/rclevel.d? | 02:21 |
| murlidhar | ChogyDan: tried ..it refuses to remove it saying unmet dependencies | 02:21 |
| murlidhar | Jeruvy: i was testing an application : ) | 02:21 |
| ChogyDan | murlidhar: maybe: dpkg --remove libtorrent-rasterbar5 --force-depends | 02:21 |
| mzawieska | can u do it in gimp? | 02:22 |
| mzawieska | create labels for dvd cases | 02:22 |
| Jeruvy | murlidhar: you may want to try purge, then update, then autoremove | 02:23 |
| Billiard | mzawieska: you could do it in gimp | 02:23 |
| vigo | gwiz: Still here? | 02:23 |

| vigdavies | Hi there. I'm looking to get some help please in using samba for Ubuntu 9.04 | 02:32 |
| krkelly | well he's using the remote desktop client on kubuntu | 02:32 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: It was a while ago, you also need to be sure that flash can use your webcam | 02:32 |
| krkelly | and it's telling him to give me his private IP | 02:32 |
| Xarver | Is there a manual entry for dick? For example the command "man dick" | 02:32 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: it has limits on devices that it supports | 02:32 |
| krkelly | 19.168... | 02:32 |
| Billiard | vigdavies: whats the issue? | 02:33 |
| ChogyDan | murlidhar: you can remove qbittorrent with the same dpkg command | 02:33 |
| krkelly | but obviously, that's not going to help me get into his machine | 02:33 |
| almoxarife | you two on the same network? | 02:33 |
| krkelly | no | 02:33 |
| almoxarife | is he behind a firewall? | 02:33 |
| krkelly | well, on a router | 02:33 |
| krkelly | so i guess | 02:33 |
| Geekneeus | Xarver: This is a Ubuntu support channel | 02:34 |

| jhb1608 | I know floodbot | 02:34 |
| Xarver | Geekneeus: Ubuntu is linux. Does Ubuntu have "man dick"? | 02:34 |
| almoxarife | if he is firewalled this won't work, but what you need is his public ip | 02:34 |
| pepee | hi | 02:34 |
| jhb1608 | got it | 02:34 |
| Geekneeus | Xarver: You're on ignore | 02:34 |
| krkelly | how can i get his public IP? | 02:34 |
| jhb1608 | now what next? | 02:34 |
| ChogyDan | murlidhar: but you need to run sudo apt-get install -f again | 02:34 |
| vigdavies | Billiard: hi, and thanks for responding. Ok, I can see my network on my Ubuntu box, and just to let you know my Ubuntu box is the samba server. I have one Windows XP client of a laptop. Both machines can ping each other no problem. I can't see my Windows XP machine from mu Ubuntu box, and I can't see the Ubuntu machine from the Windows XP laptop. Files on my Windows XP machine are shared. | 02:34 |
| almoxarife | he gives it to you | 02:34 |
| murlidhar | ChogyDan: http://www.pastie.org/671119 :) | 02:35 |
| krkelly | haha... how can he get that? (sorry, noob here) | 02:35 |
| murlidhar | ChogyDan: thanks a lot .... | 02:35 |
| Xarver | No one can hear me? | 02:35 |
| ChogyDan | murlidhar: great, take care | 02:35 |
| Xarver | Hm I'm really looking for a man dick command | 02:35 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: You will need to read through the website, it has been a long while since I've had a cam | 02:35 |
| almoxarife | krkelly: then you enter his public ip and port into your logon | 02:35 |
| pepee | my system hangs constantly, and I now know that the RAM is non-ECC | 02:36 |
| alazyworkaholic | Nautilus is screwed. Ever since I started using ext4 Nautilus doesn't refresh properly. The 'in progress wheel' or whatever it's called in the top right corner keeps going & going... I know there are more files in the folder than I can see from ls in terminal. Anyone know what's going on? | 02:36 |
| jhb1608 | oh ok I already readed it | 02:36 |
| pepee | may that be the cause? | 02:36 |
| jhb1608 | sorry makingf sure there is osmething else to ask | 02:36 |
| vigdavies | Billiard: are you there ? | 02:36 |
| Billiard | vigdavies: yes | 02:36 |
| krkelly | almoxarife: how can he get his public IP for me? | 02:36 |
| Xarver | No man dick? | 02:36 |
| Xarver | Why am I on ignore? | 02:36 |
| thedude42 | alazyworkaholic, sounds like an ext4 sync problem | 02:37 |
| Geekneeus | jhb1608: You don't need to apologise, I just don't know everything :P | 02:37 |

| Geekneeus | brian__: gfconf-editor? | 02:37 |

| almoxarife | krkelly: can he come here and chat? | 02:38 |

| thedude42 | alazyworkaholic, from what I have read over the last couple months there are a few tweaks that folks have reccomended people use with ext4 on account of how many applications do file operations, but that's all google fu... | 02:38 |
| Xarver | MAN DICK | 02:38 |

| vigdavies | Billiard: its taking it now. | 02:39 |

| pepee | having system hangs, unknown cause | 02:48 |
| partypants | just complete lock up? | 02:48 |
| pepee | will cite myself | 02:48 |
| pepee | yeah | 02:48 |
| partypants | test your memory yet? | 02:48 |
| pepee | my system hangs constantly, and I now know that the RAM is non-ECC | 02:48 |
| pepee | paranoid_ndroid, i did that | 02:49 |
| partypants | did you run a memory test? | 02:49 |
| nutterpc | if it hangs randomly, get urself memtest86, run that for about an hour or so | 02:49 |
| pepee | and memtest said no problems | 02:49 |
| pepee | system: mobo ECS a740gm-m , amd 3800+ x2, 2GB corsair non-ECC :( , 80GB hdd (may be failing too but I really don't know) | 02:49 |
| partypants | ok | 02:49 |
| nutterpc | that will help rule out memory | 02:49 |
| nutterpc | random hangs is caused by numerous things | 02:50 |
| partypants | there is no pattern to the hanging? | 02:50 |
| nutterpc | normally hangs, random, are caused by power/memory | 02:50 |
| partypants | i'm asking peepee | 02:50 |
| nutterpc | oh good god, never ever belch after drinking an ice cold can of coke | 02:51 |
| nutterpc | LOL | 02:51 |
| jhb1608 | Geekneeus: I installed what you told me | 02:51 |
| pepee | partypants, it hangs when on high load | 02:51 |
| partypants | ha | 02:51 |
| partypants | hmm... | 02:51 |
| jhb1608 | those l4v stuff | 02:51 |
| pepee | not VERY high | 02:51 |
| nutterpc | high load | 02:51 |
| brian__ | none of my keybindings seem to be workin, is it possible compiz or some other app could be not letting me use keybindings to start apps | 02:51 |
| pepee | I was thinking it is the video driver, but the boys at #radeon told me that there's is something strange in the logs | 02:52 |
| partypants | what OS? | 02:52 |
| ChogyDan | pepee: could be over heating | 02:52 |
| nutterpc | have u tried to see if it does this under any other OS? | 02:52 |
| pepee | ubuntu, now karmic | 02:52 |
| === panikkk is now known as gh0zt_afk | ||
| partypants | ok | 02:52 |
| pepee | but i had jaunty, and it was the same | 02:52 |
| nutterpc | did it do it under windows? | 02:52 |
| partypants | ChogyDan could be right | 02:52 |
| Decessus | if it's overheating, just replace the thermal compound with arctic silver | 02:52 |
| soreau | brian__: Where are you setting the keybindings that are not working? | 02:53 |
| pepee | for example: it hangs after ~ of playing "crack-attack" | 02:53 |
| ChogyDan | pepee: sudo apt-get install sensors-applet then add it to your top panel bar thing | 02:53 |
| brian__ | in conf edit and keyboard shortcuts in prefs | 02:53 |
| pepee | nutterpc, I don't have windows installed | 02:53 |
| nutterpc | partypants, me thinks get pepee to install something like gkrellm, system monitor, may help narrow down a bit easier | 02:53 |
| partypants | yeah. | 02:54 |
| brian__ | soreau, in gconf and keyboard shortcuts | 02:54 |
| pepee | ChogyDan, I installed that package | 02:54 |
| pepee | smartmontools | 02:54 |
| pepee | and some other | 02:54 |
| nutterpc | gkrellm pepee is what i recommend, works well | 02:54 |
| Decessus | pepee, Yes, monitor your gpu temps or does the linux drivers have the crash recovery? (I've never used ati under linux) | 02:54 |
| pepee | it shows ~30 or 35 ºC at hangs | 02:54 |
| soreau | brian__: Does it change if you set effects to None is gnome-appearance-properties? | 02:54 |
| StrangeCharm | is the a manual for grub2 that will help me get out of the grub rescue prompt, given that i (think that i) know what's going on? | 02:55 |
| pepee | other problems are, for example: the browsers crashes when i'm scrolling | 02:55 |
| Decessus | pepee, maybe a bad install? | 02:55 |
| pepee | or the X simplly restarts when I have many apps running | 02:55 |
| partypants | Just install windows 7, you won't have any more problems. | 02:55 |
| pepee | Decessus, maybe | 02:55 |
| pepee | partypants, haha | 02:56 |
| partypants | haha | 02:56 |
| pepee | so I'm thinking to do a clean install | 02:56 |
| pepee | but I'll loose my configs :( | 02:56 |
| brian__ | soreau, it didnt seem to | 02:56 |
| partypants | I'm thinking it's not software | 02:56 |
| partypants | It sounds like a hardware problem | 02:56 |
| Decessus | I had a bad install where nautilus would not open my trash directory, so try a reinstall | 02:57 |
| nutterpc | pepee, is your harddrive old? | 02:57 |
| pepee | partypants, maybe too, but is really strange | 02:57 |
| partypants | why not just but from a live cd and see if it crashes | 02:57 |
| Decessus | pepee, also run an HDD test | 02:57 |
| pepee | nutterpc, 2006, hitachi deskstar ATA 80GB | 02:57 |
| soreau | brian__: Didnt seem to? If thats a no, then its not a compiz issue | 02:57 |
| partypants | oh noes | 02:57 |
| partypants | not a deatyhstar | 02:57 |
| nutterpc | I'm starting to think you have what sounds like platter smack' | 02:58 |
| Decessus | deskstar :( | 02:58 |
| brian__ | soreau, ok well darn | 02:58 |
| pepee | ? | 02:58 |
| nutterpc | you may be getting head failure pepee | 02:58 |
| pepee | but it's running fine | 02:58 |
| partypants | no its crashing | 02:58 |
| nutterpc | do one thing for me pepee | 02:58 |
| vock | I'm having problems with ssh: I can connect to ssh localhost but when I try to connect otherwise i get "ssh: connect to host vock.thruhere.net port 50022: Connection refused". my sshd_config is here.http://www.pastebin.org/48565 | 02:58 |
| Decessus | pepee, some failures will seem to run fine with somethings, but not with others | 02:58 |
| nutterpc | is your case open pepee ? | 02:58 |
| jhb1608 | how do I view the V4L configuration? | 02:58 |
| pepee | smartctl doesn't show anything strange (or that's what I suppose) | 02:59 |
| pepee | nutterpc, no | 02:59 |
| nutterpc | I need you to "listen" to your hdd, or have the case open in some way so you can | 02:59 |
| nutterpc | see if you can hear any strange noises | 02:59 |
| rickasaurus | mine whispers voices to me | 02:59 |
| pepee | nutterpc, I configured the HDD to stay silently | 02:59 |
| partypants | clicking' etc... | 02:59 |
| pepee | hitachi's ever do clicks | 03:00 |
| nutterpc | pepee, try it mate, this will help narrow down if it is head failure on your hard driver | 03:00 |
| Decessus | pepee, even in a silent mode you can hear small clicking, popping, whining, grinding, etc | 03:00 |
| nutterpc | drive* | 03:00 |
| pepee | ok, thanks | 03:00 |
| partypants | just burn UBCD and run a drive diagnostic | 03:00 |
| Decessus | if the drive is failing | 03:00 |
| pepee | that what other ppl told me too, maybe is the HDD | 03:01 |
| pepee | thanks guys | 03:01 |
| nutterpc | pepee, also, if the drive is "clicking", I suggest backing up your data ASAP, as you will have an imminent hdd failure | 03:01 |
| partypants | prolly the drive or something overheating | 03:01 |
| pepee | ohh, forgot a detail | 03:01 |

| thegreyspot | Ahadiel: hmm ur right, maybe i mean how do i make it lower clock speeds when it needs too. My cpu sounds really loud right now :) | 04:06 |
| Ahadiel | thegreyspot, Have a look at cpufrequtils | 04:07 |
| infid | seaphor not before, i just installed sshd on that computer. i can however sshd into my other computer just fine | 04:07 |

| januszeal | dKaine_: sup | 04:07 |
| SeaPhor | infid, did u do /etc/init.d sshd start? | 04:07 |
| Ahadiel | thegreyspot, sudo apt-get install cpufrequtils | 04:07 |
| infid | seaphor yeah sshd is def running on that computer | 04:08 |
| infid | seaphor i can even ssh to localhost on it | 04:08 |
| thegreyspot | Ahadiel does it have a gui? | 04:08 |
| Ahadiel | thegreyspot, once you have that installed, you can check your CPU's frequency with 'cpufreq-info' | 04:08 |
| Ahadiel | thegreyspot, it doesn't need one | 04:08 |
| Ahadiel | thegreyspot, it changes depending on your cpu load | 04:08 |
| thegreyspot | ahadiel: hardware limits: 1.15 GHz - 2.30 GHz | 04:09 |
| thegreyspot | does that sound right then? | 04:09 |
| SeaPhor | did you see above about the /etc/hosts.allow ? | 04:09 |
| Ahadiel | thegreyspot, Are you setting your limits manually? | 04:09 |
| Ahadiel | thegreyspot, default settings should suffice | 04:09 |
| thegreyspot | ahadiel how would i do that? | 04:10 |

| ysar | in how many days it will be ready ubuntu 9.10 ? | 04:11 |
| thegreyspot | Ahadiel: urrent policy: frequency should be within 1.15 GHz and 2.30 GHz. | 04:11 |
| thegreyspot | The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use | 04:11 |
| thegreyspot | within this range. | 04:11 |

| Xcell | woohoo.. ive got 9.10 kickin butt...thanks canonical | 04:14 |
| ysar | the best xfce or Gnome? | 04:15 |
| gwiz | I did Porter, nothing happened that's how much lag I got :/ | 04:15 |
| SeaPhor | !best | ysar | 04:15 |
| ubottu | ysar: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 04:15 |
| porter1 | ysar, for beginners, I recommend Gnome | 04:15 |
| porter1 | Not to say Xfce isn't intuitive, it's just less-supported by major app writers, and doesn't really see much of a performance improvement. | 04:16 |
| ysar | porter1 i am using linux many years but first time i choose to install ubuntu most of times i was use kde | 04:16 |
| DaZ | xfce is as simple as gnome :f | 04:16 |
| ysar | one positive have ubuntu is the multilanguange keyboard | 04:17 |
| porter1 | ysar, you can also try kubuntu if you want to stick with KDE | 04:17 |

| Ahadiel | foo, afaik I think you can just use dd | 04:17 |
| * porter1 waits for the KDE people to come and attack him | 04:18 | |

| SeaPhor | foo, dd= In the most basic sense, the DD command is used for copying in the UNIX environment. For simplicity, we will consider 'copy' to mean 'to duplicate exactly.

| Random832 | zuggyca, are you sure you need vino for what you're doing? | 04:45 |
| knoppies | zuggyca, I would also like to know, but Im more interested in getting tightvnc to work. | 04:45 |
| Random832 | if you just need remote vnc login, you could just have gdm run an Xvnc | 04:45 |
| knoppies | foosck, you should try organise one then. | 04:45 |
| Random832 | that just won't tie to the console | 04:46 |
| zuggyca | i need to remote desktop to my ubuntu desktop from windows without having to log in the ubuntu user | 04:46 |
| foosck | I am gonna to get one, but have ot figure out on drivers | 04:46 |
| losha | tsrk: I've never seen that done. As far as I know, the best you can do is create a primary and copy the contents from the logical partition, then delete the logical partition... | 04:46 |
| Random832 | zuggyca, do you need it to be the same session as on the ubuntu's physical screen? | 04:46 |
| foosck | !supported hardware | 04:46 |

| Guest43263 | i need some help with my sony vaio VGN-AR390E | 04:46 |
| zuggyca | Random832: no | 04:46 |
| tsrk | losha, alright, i'll do that, thanks | 04:46 |
| Random832 | http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/xvnc/ | 04:46 |
| zuggyca | thanks | 04:47 |
| Random832 | worth looking at anyway | 04:47 |
| knoppies | Random832, if I do want to be on the same session as ubuntu's physical screen, then how should I go about it? I was thinking tightvnc, but havnt managed to get it to work yet. | 04:47 |
| foosck | ubottu, well you are intelligent. | 04:47 |
| dandaman | question: how do i copy a folder from a SSH onto a folder in my hard drive? | 04:48 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:48 |
| foo | SeaPhor / Ahadiel: alright, dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda is working it's magic. thanks | 04:48 |
| Guest43263 | where should i go for help when trying to install drivers for my sony vaio that are meant for vista? | 04:48 |
| foosck | ubottu, you are. | 04:48 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about you are. | 04:48 |
| Random832 | knoppies, i don't know - you could always just log in and start a vnc client locally when you want it on the physical screen | 04:48 |
| d9500 | foosck: figure out drivers? that depends on what you're looking for. open source driver support "out of the box"? top performance? | 04:48 |
| foosck | out of the box | 04:48 |
| Random832 | then you don't necessarily have the ability to do 3d/video stuff that's too intensive for vnc | 04:48 |
| foosck | no no I don't do vnc | 04:49 |
| knoppies | thanks Random832 | 04:49 |
| sarthor | HI, my pppoe server says, pppoe: read (asyncReadFromPPP): Session 1: Input/output error , only one login is able to be login, each other ID gave this error, While the login/passwod are correct, HELP | 04:49 |
| knoppies | foosck, think that was directed at me | 04:49 |
| anarki2004 | anyone here know anything about "Error 18" inside GRUB? | 04:49 |
| foosck | oh sorry | 04:49 |
| dandaman | how do i copy a folder from a SSH onto a folder in my hard drive? whats the command? if its cp, i dont know how to do it :( also i'm inside the ssh | 04:49 |
| TomTom21 | Hey guys i need help installing drivers for my laptop | 04:50 |
| kevdog | dandaman: I use sftp which is much like an ftp session. | 04:50 |
| sync350 | dandaman: is there an ftp service running? As far as I know, there's not really a direct way to download files/folders through just ssh. | 04:50 |
| jahnkeanater | how do i get my rear speakers working | 04:50 |
| dandaman | ahh ok, ill install that then | 04:50 |
| losha | dandaman: can't you use scp ? | 04:50 |
| nrcain | Can I just dd regular Linux install ISOs to a USB drive and install from there? | 04:50 |
| dandaman | losha: don't know how, and i thought that copies from hard drive to ssh | 04:50 |
| dandaman | not the other way around | 04:51 |
| bastid_raZor | dandaman: scp .. be on the host machine and type scp folder/ user@destination:/folder/ | 04:51 |
| kevdog | IMO scp is a poor mans sftp | 04:51 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, what drivers? | 04:51 |
| anarki2004 | i just installed ubuntu alongside windows on the same HDD. Now grub can't boot properly and I can't boot the computer without going live | 04:51 |
| anarki2004 | heh | 04:51 |
| knoppies | nrcain, I dont think you would be able to mount the ISO. | 04:51 |
| knoppies | nrcain, wait, nvm. | 04:51 |
| jahnkeanater | under volume control i dont have a suround mode | 04:51 |
| knoppies | nrcain, not sure. | 04:51 |
| TomTom21 | for a sony vaio VGN-AR390E graphics card and camera | 04:51 |
| d9500 | foosck: if you don't want to install any proprietary video card drivers, then intel has a history of providing open source drivers in linux (wait till karmic though to buy a motherboard w/ an intel card, there were some regressions in jaunty w/ intel drivers b/c they were reworking the architecture.) also, amd/ati has recently been improving their 2d/3d acceleration, by helping develop the open source "radeon" driver, but that one does not have 3d accel | 04:52 |
| d9500 | eration for the r500-600 series of cards as of kernel 2.6.31. you would need to upgrade to 2.6.32, which is still an rc at this point | 04:52 |
| anarki2004 | by live I mean using a live boot | 04:52 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, have you googled it? | 04:52 |
| jahnkeanater | does any one have 4 channel speakers on ubuntu | 04:52 |
| d9500 | foosck: at least, I think that's correct. phoronix.com regularly provides updates on amd's card support. might want to check that site to be sure | 04:52 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, in a terminal type lshw -C video | 04:53 |
| TomTom21 | yea but when i tried the new update 185 for my graphics card it would crash my GPU and i had to reinstall ubuntu. also i tried installing the camera but it failed saying i needed vista | 04:54 |
| X7 | have no sound not sure why everything is pc speaker | 04:54 |
| bastid_raZor | SeaPhor: lshw should be run with sudo | 04:54 |
| anarki2004 | 1300 people....one of you knows.... | 04:54 |
| X7 | 04:55 | |
| SeaPhor | bastid_raZor, yes- i agree.... | 04:55 |
| TomTom21 | SeaPhor, I did now what? | 04:55 |
| Lasthion | I have a question for someone im new to ubuntu and im trying to start the game gearhead but i cant find out where the exe file or what ever it is is at any help would be very nice | 04:56 |

| sarthor | HI, my pppoe server says, pppoe: read (asyncReadFromPPP): Session 1: Input/output error , only one login is able to be login, each other ID gave this error, While the login/passwod are correct, HELP | 04:56 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, how did it "crash my GPU" ? | 04:56 |
| Billiard | Lasthion: after you install it from the package manager, it should be in your programs manu under games or something similar | 04:56 |
| dandaman | how do i use scp to copy an entire directory? | 04:57 |
| Lasthion | i looked it not | 04:57 |
| dandaman | or...how can i copy a directory from an ssh into my local hd? | 04:57 |
| Lasthion | i tried alt f2-ing the name but nothing | 04:57 |
| Steil | dandaman: look into SFTP | 04:57 |
| Steil | or | 04:57 |
| bastid_raZor | scp -r | 04:57 |
| Steil | RTFM | 04:57 |
| Jeruvy | Lasthion: if you open a terminal, and type 'gearhead' does that work? | 04:57 |
| Lasthion | not sure yet | 04:58 |
| xenon_karmic | how to turn off desktop effects ? i turn them off and they again appear on rebooting. | 04:58 |
| TomTom21 | SeaPhor, well it cam to a black screen can't exactly what it said something to extent of GPU cant process or something sorry I wasnt the one that installed the drivers my uncle did while i was at school | 04:58 |
| TomTom21 | exactly remember* | 04:58 |
| Lasthion | ty sir it did | 04:58 |
| dandaman | ty | 04:59 |
| foosck | wow cool I like that gearhead | 04:59 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, so it was working ok before? | 04:59 |
| kevdog | dandaman: You can use sftp just like ssh: sftp <user>@<host> | 04:59 |
| Harrison_Bergero | i would like to complain if thats ok? I have ubuntu and windows on same LAN | 04:59 |
| TomTom21 | SeaPhor, after I reinstalled ubuntu it did it wouldnt load...also i had to install in safe graphics mode | 05:00 |
| TomTom21 | Seaphor, even before i tried installing the driver | 05:00 |
| Harrison_Bergero | when i do large file transfers from Ubuntu to windows XP i get connection timeout....BUT from XP to XP works beautifully....what gives? | 05:00 |
| sarthor | Harrison_Bergero, use Windows | 05:01 |
| Harrison_Bergero | right now im moving 40GB from laptop XP to XP in cellar....15minutes into the transfer and sill NO timeout | 05:01 |
| mzuverink | in sound juicer the variable bitrat is set at 6 which I believe if I understood my googleing 6 results in aprox quality of 13, now 0 would be 320 am I understanding this correctly | 05:01 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, wait,,,, you tried to install a driver,, not just the one from the Hardware-Restricted drivers? | 05:01 |
| Harrison_Bergero | i have files id like to move off Ubuntu as well....how to work around this problem? | 05:01 |
| mzuverink | *130 | 05:01 |
| Harrison_Bergero | ugh...what just happened? | 05:02 |
| eyebee | Harrison_Bergero: using wi-fi on ubuntu? | 05:02 |
| rockstarrem | lol owned | 05:02 |
| Lasthion | ? | 05:02 |
| Jeruvy | !netsplit | 05:02 |
| Harrison_Bergero | eyebee...no its all cabled | 05:02 |
| Harrison_Bergero | ugh...again, what just happened? | 05:02 |
| coordinador | :O netsplit | 05:02 |
| Termana | That was a nice netsplit | 05:02 |
| Harrison_Bergero | eyebee_...no its all cabled | 05:03 |
| ganjanaut | quick question: why isn't there a package for python-2.6? | 05:03 |
| TomTom21 | SeaPhor, dont think so the drivers i tried installing were not activated and still arent | 05:03 |
| dragon2777 | so is there an easy simple way to change the ubuntu logo on the main menu | 05:04 |
| Harrison_Bergero | Let me ask a question in general.....do most of your file transfers from Ubuntu to windows timeout? Is it a hard drive, datacable, CAT5 problem on my end or is this crossplatform issue? | 05:04 |
| dragon2777 | i never had a timeout problem | 05:05 |
| eyebee_ | Harrison_Bergero: I know there was a driver issue when transferring large files but thought it only affected wi-fi | 05:05 |
| IdleOne | no issues here either | 05:05 |
| TomTom21 | Harrison_Bergero, why not use an external HDD? | 05:05 |
| eyebee_ | Harrison_Bergero: I know there was a driver issue when transferring large files but thought it only affected wi-fi | 05:05 |
| max3 | anyone know what the foreign language room here on irc.ubuntu.com is????????????? | 05:05 |
| IdleOne | max3: what language? | 05:05 |
| Kor | Hi, does someone know how to use -- magicrescue -- ? | 05:05 |
| max3 | IdleOne: there was one i used to frequent where people spoke all sorts of languages | 05:05 |
| Harrison_Bergero | ok, since the majority do not have timeout issues transferring large files from ubuntu to windows i can only assume its a hardware issue on my LAN/PC | 05:06 |
| max3 | IdleOne: something like #foreignlanguages | 05:06 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, ok, so you "tried" to install a downloaded driver? | 05:06 |
| dragon2777 | it also might be a setting issue | 05:06 |
| IdleOne | max3: not sure, try that one or maybe check the channel list on freenode.net | 05:06 |
| dragon2777 | or firewall | 05:06 |
| maco | max3: #linguistics or ##linguistics (i forget how man #) ...but its a little offtopic for this channel to ask that here | 05:06 |
| Harrison_Bergero | TomTom21....this is a one time deal. After this no more file transfers. Not worth buying an external drive. | 05:06 |
| ganjanaut | is it notoriously buggy? | 05:06 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I installed itunes 9.0.1.8 via wine and I want to get rid of it for a version most known to work (version 7+ or 8 ) how do I do this?? | 05:06 |
| almoxarife | yeah, #babel wasn't it? | 05:06 |
| max3 | maco: aha there we go | 05:06 |
| eyebee_ | Harrison_Bergero: there was an issue with hanging when transferring large files/heavy traffic | 05:07 |
| eyebee_ | on some systems | 05:07 |
| Jeruvy | Harrison_Bergero: check out launchpad.net for any bug reports, then see if it's hardware related. There have been some bugs that may shed some light on it. | 05:07 |
| Harrison_Bergero | eyebee....can zou point me in the right direction? | 05:07 |
| foosck | aha | 05:07 |
| foosck | I'll go ot launchpad.net | 05:07 |
| Harrison_Bergero | Jeruvy...thanks | 05:07 |
| TomTom21 | SeaPhor, correct it downloaded then i tried to install but it didn't work after I reset it worked when i was still running it but anything that had to do with my driver didnt work such as Halo:CE | 05:08 |
| eyebee_ | Harrison_Bergero: checkout http://ubuntu.com in the community - don't have exact url here on netbook right now | 05:08 |
| mzuverink | prior to the mass dis/reconnect I asked 0 has better VBR parameters, sound suicer is set at 6, which google tells me it is around 120-130, I'd like higher quality like 256 VBR would changing make the adjustment, am I understanding this correctly | 05:08 |
| ctmjr | ShapeShifter499: wine should have an uninstall for it | 05:08 |
| dragon2777 | has dual monitor support gotten any better in 9.04 i want to install it on my desktop but the previous versions were iffy i have dual 23" monitors and a nvidea 9600 | 05:08 |
| === loot_ is now known as Guest28241 | ||
| ShapeShifter499 | ctmjr: didn't work | 05:08 |
| boojit | dragon2777: works much better for me than in past incarnations | 05:08 |
| dragon2777 | so it is worth it to try and instlall i assume the live disk will let me see if it works | 05:09 |
| Harrison_Bergero | hmm, mostly DC++ connection timeout and wireless issues. | 05:09 |
| ganjanaut | i guess no one knows... i can't figure out why. 2.6 seems pretty stable | 05:09 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ctmjr: at the end of the itunes un-installer it said it was installed not un-installed | 05:09 |
| ganjanaut | only bugfixes are being added | 05:09 |
| boojit | dragon2777: well you'll have to get the nvidia binary driver installed | 05:09 |
| boojit | dragon2777: and that requires a reboot, so it takes a tiny bit of doing with the live cd, but yeah. | 05:10 |
| SeaPhor | TomTom21, hrm, i've never had that problem unless i tried some other driver first or envy,,, | 05:10 |
| Harrison_Bergero | hey....how can i tell if samba is already installed? | 05:10 |
| dragon2777 | boojit: that should show up in restricted drivers right | 05:10 |
| domo | Harrison_Bergero: sudo apt-get install samba | 05:10 |

| LuisMatos | Hi there, im new to ubuntu and trying to use the add/remove applications. it came up with an error that says "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, please report." Could somebody help me?? | 05:10 |
| Harrison_Bergero | from the standard installation i was able to go to the network tab and find the windows machine | 05:10 |
| dragon2777 | hmm i tihink i will give it a try thanks | 05:11 |
| ctmjr | ShapeShifter499: look in ~/.wine and delete it (not .wine but itunes) | 05:11 |
| TomTom21 | SeaPhor, werid...though my computer used to have vista on it before it crashed...this is a hand me down one of those you can fix it you can have it | 05:11 |
| Th_Doctor | LuisMatos: type that in the terminal and hit enter. | 05:12 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ctmjr: what files/folders? there are folders everywhere named itunes in the wine folder | 05:12 |
| lootless | test | 05:12 |
| LuisMatos | th_doctor: type "dpkg --configure -a" ? | 05:13 |
| Th_Doctor | LuisMatos: Yes. Or just copy and paste and hit enter. | 05:13 |
| Th_Doctor | LuisMatos: You might need to start it with sudo | 05:13 |
| Th_Doctor | LuisMatos: begin with sudo | 05:14 |
| SeaPhor | well TomTom21 if you really want to make a project of it,,, join my channel cause alot will be off-topic here, and i'm sure we can help there\ | 05:14 |
| ctmjr | ShapeShifter499: weel if it was mine i would delete every file and dir that is named itunes in .wine | 05:14 |
| leo_ | I want to install kernel-source-2.6.8, but it says it has no installation candidate. Please help. | 05:15 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: Why do you want Itunes. Can't you use gtkpod? | 05:15 |
| TomTom21 | SeaPhor, im new to ubuntu as well how do i join? | 05:15 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ctmjr: ok.... after that what about any registry entries? | 05:15 |
| Sirisian | If I have like 7 kernels. Can I just go into /boot and remove the ones I don't need then just run update-grub to refresh menu.lst. Is there anything else I should be aware of? | 05:16 |
| Harrison_Bergero | ok tech question. When i do a file transfer across the cabled LAN is the following taking place: "which makes use of https and apt-transport-https" | 05:16 |
| maco | Sirisian: uninstall them | 05:16 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: Its because I can..... | 05:16 |
| Sirisian | maco, using the package manager interface? | 05:17 |
| maco | Sirisian: yep | 05:17 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: and its also the challenge of trying to get windows apps/games I use to run, running again with wine | 05:17 |
| Sirisian | maco, so remove the headers along with the image. That's the normal method? | 05:17 |
| maco | Sirisian: yeah | 05:18 |
| Sirisian | thank you | 05:18 |
| zuggyca | Random832: thanks for article about xvnc server, I think I'll buy a kvm instead :P | 05:18 |
| zuggyca | i'll break my system otherwise | 05:19 |
| Sirisian | maco, would I mark them for removal or complete removal? | 05:19 |
| maco | Sirisian: i usually just go with removal | 05:19 |
| maco | Sirisian: i dont think they put any config files anywhere thatd require purging... (command line term is "purge" synaptic term is "complete removal" ...means it removes configuration files too) | 05:19 |
| ctmjr | ShapeShifter499: i do not no to much about wine if it will over write the registry entries when you install the ver of itunes you want i would get rid of them just to be sure | 05:20 |
| LuisMatos | Th_Doctor: ok i just did, now it says "Setting up java-common (0.28ubuntu3) ..." | 05:20 |
| Th_Doctor | LuisMatos: Let it run and if necessary answer yes when asked. | 05:22 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ctmjr: I can just redo my wine dir. | 05:22 |
| kevdog | zuggyca: Do you really need vnc or could you just tunnel an x session? | 05:22 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: Which version of Itunes were you trying to set up. I think the latest that worked was 7.7. | 05:22 |
| sarthor | HI, my pppoe server says, pppoe: read (asyncReadFromPPP): Session 1: Input/output error , only one login is able to be login, each other ID gave this error, While the login/passwod are correct, HELP | 05:22 |
| domo | hey im using 9.10.. testing it out.. samba is broken? when copying files over to a share (fresh install of ubuntu server...) it fails with too many files are currently in use | 05:23 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: I know 8 will let you sync with the Iphone but I don't think it will run on 9.04. | 05:23 |
| domo | the same copy works on 9.04 | 05:23 |
| boojit | kevdog: if you try that over anything slower than a lan connection performance is really abysmal, at least in my experience | 05:23 |
| domo | so its def. 9.10 | 05:23 |
| Harrison_Bergero | WOW...found exactly my problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/372685 | 05:23 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: I was going with the newest itunes 9+ but its a bust so I want something like 7 or above | 05:23 |
| Harrison_Bergero | can someone have a look and give me a suggestion as to how to proceed? | 05:24 |
| kevdog | boojit: FreeNX server is one alternative -- but you tell me you have found running rxvt remotely is slow? | 05:24 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: The last one I know that worked was 7.7, but I don't think you can find it anymore. | 05:24 |
| raven | hi - GPODDER gives me "sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file" - can i repair that? | 05:24 |
| bazhang | domo, karmic support in #ubuntu+1 | 05:24 |
| domo | sigh | 05:24 |
| domo | iight | 05:24 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: will 8.0 work? | 05:24 |
| Harrison_Bergero | whats funny about the reported bug, i was going to do the same thing, swap patch cable and router first | 05:24 |
| Harrison_Bergero | i guess logic is the universal language | 05:25 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: I was just on the forums and it seems it won't. | 05:25 |
| Harrison_Bergero | saved me some time | 05:25 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: If I use it I will only need it for my ipod nano 2nd gen | 05:25 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: oh and my ipod shuffle | 05:26 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: The search I used had several links and they said you couldn't install beyond 7.7. | 05:26 |
| Harrison_Bergero | ok, other than fixing a problem i cant really find where to begin. Let me try another solution. Other than copy/paste from Ubuntu to windows across the LAN, what are my alternatives to do a file transfer? | 05:26 |
| boojit | kevdog: i'm just saying that tunnelling X11 over ssh is damn slow in my experience unless you're on a LAN, that's all. | 05:27 |
| Th_Doctor | Harrison_Bergero: How about a USB drive. | 05:27 |
| Harrison_Bergero | external HD was already suggested | 05:27 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: ssh(via sftp), ftp | 05:27 |
| Harrison_Bergero | ftp! forgot about that, thanks | 05:27 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: I'll take a crack at it, brb | 05:27 |
| Th_Doctor | Harrison_Bergero: External Hard Drive is much more expensive than USB stick. | 05:27 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Well then sftp (which is really ssh then) | 05:28 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: Good luck. If you get it to work, post it in the forums. | 05:28 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog, what windows program would i need? | 05:28 |
| Harrison_Bergero | generic ftp server? | 05:28 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: also look at rsync over ssh tunnel -- that's how I move files around | 05:29 |
| Jeruvy | Harrison_Bergero: can you confirm the problem in the bug? If it only happens going from linux -> windows? If so I'd look at the windows event viewer for any messages. | 05:29 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: I know, I did a test on itunes 8.1, look for a person with the name lance, thats me | 05:29 |
| Th_Doctor | Harrison_Bergero: What are you trying to transfer? Could you use Google Docs? | 05:29 |
| boojit | and it rocks the house off the socks ass | 05:29 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Two things you need -- you need to install openssh-server on the ubuntu machine -- and for the windows client -- winscp. You can get fancy with ssh keys and such, or just use passwords if you want | 05:29 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: look in the appdb for wine | 05:29 |
| Harrison_Bergero | Th_doctor....40GB altogether | 05:29 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: OK. | 05:29 |
| emanux | how to shred recursively? | 05:30 |
| emanux | i have this command but it seems it is not working | 05:30 |
| raven | hi - GPODDER gives me "sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file" - can i repair that? | 05:30 |
| infid | seaphor /etc/hosts.allow says sshd: ALL but it also says other things like 'ALL : PARANOID : DENY' | 05:30 |
| Harrison_Bergero | let me do my homework on this, bbl | 05:30 |
| emanux | find -type f -execdir shred -v -n 10 -z -u '{}' \; | 05:30 |
| Th_Doctor | Harrison_Bergero: Well eventually you need to do a backup, so maybe now is the time for an extenal hard drive. | 05:30 |
| emanux | error writing at offset 0: Operation not supported | 05:30 |
| LuisMatos | Th_Doctor. thank you for your help | 05:31 |
| Th_Doctor | LuisMatos: NP | 05:31 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Th_Doctor: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17774&iTestingId=44529 was my test for itunes | 05:31 |
| Th_Doctor | ShapeShifter499: Thanks. | 05:31 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Once you get the openssh-server installed (sudo aptitude install openssh-server), you can do rsync/unison for backups if you really want to get fancy (which really aren't that fancy) | 05:32 |
| SerbThug | heya all. Anyone using vmware? | 05:32 |
| boojit | SerbThug: yeah | 05:32 |
| SerbThug | boojit: since when it's not free? | 05:33 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog in synaptic package manager is ssh-krb5 the server im looking for? | 05:33 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: You need to transfer 40 GB? | 05:33 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...it a one time deal | 05:33 |
| boojit | SerbThug: since i've been using it which has been a damn long time. You talking vmware workstation? | 05:33 |
| Tehedra | how do i check what modules i have installed via ssh? | 05:33 |
| SerbThug | vmware server | 05:33 |
| boojit | SerbThug: I don't ever recall it being free. | 05:34 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...im just a bit disappointed that connection timeout issue...seems a glaring one to me | 05:34 |
| bastid_raZor | Tehedra: lsmod | 05:34 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Its openssh-server -- and 40GB? Are they a bunch of different files -- a dropped network connection could be an issue | 05:34 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...i like ubuntu now that ive gotten my feet wet | 05:34 |
| boojit | SerbThug: sure you're not thinking of something like Xen? | 05:34 |
| bastid_raZor | Tehedra: lsmod | more ..is probably easier to see it all and press enter to continue | 05:35 |
| boojit | (if you're looking for free, that is) | 05:35 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...see thats the thing....my laptop with XP has been transferring this whole time....25minutes and still going | 05:35 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: 40GB is a lot to transfer over any network -- | 05:35 |
| === root is now known as Guest71444 | ||
| SerbThug | boojit: I wanted vmware 'cause I read somewhere that it's possible to boot existing win install in linux | 05:35 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog....let me back up a second...even when i do a smaller file, say 700mb, it will sometimes, not all the time give a "connection timeout" | 05:35 |
| SerbThug | in VM | 05:35 |
| Th_Doctor | Harrison_Bergero: Harrison_Bergero Carbonite is free for 30 days. You could backup there and then download to the other computer. | 05:35 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: I hope you do error checking on that transferred material -- md5 or sha1 or something. A lot of potential for errors | 05:35 |
| kevdog | Carbonite doesn't support linux | 05:36 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog....error checking across a wired LAN? | 05:36 |
| Th_Doctor | kevdog: Bummer. | 05:36 |
| Tehedra | mmm im trying to figure out what version of php i installed, i swore i installed php 5.3 | 05:36 |
| Tehedra | but for some reason phpinfo is showing that i installed 5.2 | 05:36 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...the longest CAT5 is 10m long. | 05:36 |
| Jeruvy | kevdog: UbuntuOne does :) | 05:36 |
| Th_Doctor | kevdog: Doesn't Ubuntu have a free online backup? | 05:36 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: yes -- what are you using -- samba? | 05:37 |
| Harrison_Bergero | i could understand it if i was going 100m across lots of EM interference...but this is straight through the floor and into the cellar | 05:37 |
| kevdog | Th_Doctor: free online backup of 40Gb? | 05:37 |
| Whitor | cat5 can go a lot further than 10m | 05:37 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: A bunch of small files? | 05:37 |
| raven | hi - GPODDER gives me "sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file" - can i repair that? | 05:38 |
| Th_Doctor | kevdog: Just a question, I still think his best solution would be an external hard drive. Eventually he should need a backup anyway. | 05:38 |
| Harrison_Bergero | Whitor...the question was about error correction...i thought a 10m run was short enough not to warrant hashing | 05:38 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog....no 700mb or larger files | 05:38 |
| surgy | in gimp i have copied and pasted a green image on top of my image..... now it wont let me paint in anything else but shades and hues of green! how do i fix this? | 05:38 |
| Whitor | jeez I trust it for a few hundred feet at least | 05:38 |
| SerbThug | boojit: you aware of any other workaround? | 05:38 |
| surgy | cat5e is goto for 600m right? | 05:39 |
| Th_Doctor | surgy: Double click the color icon and choose. | 05:39 |
| Whitor | nope cat5e is still 100m | 05:39 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: If its a one time thing -- wants wrong with ftp? No encryption payload -- so really fast -- ssh is great -- however the embedded encryption is what slows it down -- with ftp no encryption so much faster!!! | 05:39 |
| surgy | Th_Doctor, i did that it just chanegs the hue or shade of green instead of the entire color, no matetr what color is in the box | 05:39 |
| Whitor | same w/ 6 ... just higher frequency tolerant | 05:39 |
| Jeruvy | surgy: is your picture still showing RGB, or did it change to index? | 05:39 |
| surgy | Jeruvy, how do i tell? | 05:40 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: You need a lightweight free windows ftp server? | 05:40 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...yes | 05:40 |
| boojit | SerbThug: i've never tried to do what you're doing but I would suspect it's going to be a bit difficult. It depends if you plan on running your windows install natively again after you get it running as a guest OS under VMWare. | 05:40 |
| Th_Doctor | surgy: What if you make a new layer? | 05:40 |
| zuggyca | kevdog: i need a quality session, the standard remote desktop with vnc is useless | 05:40 |
| boojit | SerbThug: because your windows install will require all the drivers for the virtualized hardware rather than the hardware of your actual machine. | 05:40 |
| SerbThug | boojit: nope, I only need windows once or twice in a month, so I won't use it natively | 05:41 |
| surgy | Th_Doctor, doesnt seam to do anything, same green problem | 05:41 |
| kevdog | zuggyca: FreeNX | 05:41 |
| Jeruvy | surgy: select - mode. that should tell you whats selected | 05:41 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Give me a second -- I know a great one but I forget the name of it -- but it rocks and is very good for simple stuff -- I need to find it!!! | 05:41 |
| boojit | SerbThug: but I don't want to say more because I've never done it. My experience with vmware is mostly running vmware workstation, both on windows hosts and linux hosts. | 05:41 |
| SerbThug | boojit: actually, I need it only for IE7 and IE8 (Web testing) | 05:41 |
| SerbThug | ie4linux does not wfm | 05:42 |
| surgy | its indexed | 05:42 |
| boojit | SerbThug: yeah, i hear you. Well VMWare workstation will do what you want for that but if i were doing it i would start with a clean install rather than try to get my old install of XP working with it. | 05:42 |
| zuggyca | kevdog: thanks i'll check it out in the morning | 05:42 |
| Jeruvy | surgy: change it to rgb | 05:42 |

| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Booting what? | 05:53 |
| knoppies | zeus? | 05:53 |
| zeus | No, I mean how can I have the same features that were in Add/Remove, but in Software Center? | 05:54 |
| zeus | Such as sorting programs by their star rating. | 05:54 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...just had to login into the windows machine, downloading ftp program now | 05:54 |
| knoppies | zeus, not sure. | 05:54 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: What are you trying to do? | 05:55 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...im downloading a copy of winscp 4.1.9 | 05:56 |
| zeus | Is there a way to install Add/Remove, replacing the new Software Center? | 05:56 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Its ssh (sftp) and not ftp -- big difference | 05:57 |
| Tehedra | magic_quotes_gpc, how can i make sure this is disabled in php? | 05:58 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog, yes the selected default protocol is sftp | 05:58 |
| Tehedra | im assuming its in an ini file somewhere | 05:58 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: This is all being done on a LAN behind a router? | 05:59 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog....yes | 05:59 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Ok good -- you don't have to worry about securing the system technically -- i'd just use username and passwords then | 05:59 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Or changing the port number for example | 06:00 |
| kevdog | Is the new service command up and running in karmic? For example sudo service ssh start ??? | 06:01 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog....ok installed | 06:01 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog....both winscp and openssh-server | 06:02 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Ok -- so start winscp and see if you can log into your ubuntu box | 06:02 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog....this may sound like windowspeak...but where in ubuntu do i find my computername? | 06:03 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: The interface is a little bit clumsy for just the login screen b/c it uses putty as a frontend for authentication -- the rest of the program is simple to use | 06:03 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Just use your LAN IP address for the server -- 192.168.x.x Whatever it is | 06:03 |
| knoppies | Harrison_Bergero, You can use netscan on your windows PC to find the IP of your ubuntu box | 06:04 |

| knoppies | edulacomadreja, never heared of it, but have you searched the forums? | 06:07 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Partition on what computer? | 06:07 |
| edulacomadreja | knoppies: yes, i'm using it already, it's just some silly issue | 06:07 |

| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Can't you just change to the partition -- or have you mounted the partition on the ubuntu box and set it up with a directory structure | 06:08 |

| === zuggyca is now known as gh0zt_afk | ||
| kevdog | Termana: gdm isn't a service is it? Last time I checked it just started gnome | 06:12 |
| xeer | Termana, kevdog: busybox doesn't have the service program, it just has basic functionality | 06:12 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...um, the icon to access the partition is on the desktop, BUT it doesnt show up in winscp | 06:12 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...somehow im doing this backwards...im using VNC to get into the windows machine remotely to use winscp to get back into ubuntu | 06:13 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: You haven't told me anything -- it sounds like the partition isn't mounted or if it is you don't know where its mounted at. | 06:13 |
| Termana | kevdog - Its how I start up gnome, sudo service gdm start. | 06:13 |
| Termana | xeer - Have you tried going to a virtual terminal? | 06:13 |
| kevdog | Termana: Hmm things have changed h | 06:13 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Why? Just go to the windows box | 06:14 |
| Termana | xeer: Like pressing Ctrl + alt + F1 | 06:14 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: Or I guess you could install the openssh server on the windows machine -- however this would entail a cygwin (or similar type program) installation | 06:14 |
| xeer | Termana: I don't think you follow. The new ubuntu logo (two tone white on black) disappears real quick and then I get a blank screen. When I press a key I'm at a busybox shell. | 06:14 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...found it..../media/disk | 06:14 |
| isola73dsh33p | guys, how to check my sound card's name? | 06:15 |

| Termana | xeer - what version of Ubuntu are you on? | 06:15 |
| xeer | 9.10 | 06:15 |
| kevdog | xeer: From within the grub menu -- can you just choose to boot to a terminal shell and not start x? | 06:16 |
| Termana | xeer - try this | 06:16 |
| xeer | This is what was dumped to my screen.. mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/... on /root failed: Invalid argument | 06:16 |
| xeer | mount: mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: Invalid argument, etc. etc.. | 06:16 |
| Termana | xeer: Boot a live cd, mount your / at for example /media/root, then do | 06:16 |
| Termana | sudo chroot /media/root | 06:17 |

| Termana | xeer - you probably did an upgrade install of Karmic correct? | 06:20 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: You're doing an encrypted file transfer -- that's the problem -- you have a lot of overhead for the encryption process. Simple ftp would have been easier since no encryption is used for speed reasons | 06:20 |
| ravenger | is there some one who can solve my problem | 06:20 |

| soreau | ravenger: You basically have two or three options for linux: 1) Install the target OS in a VM then install the program you want in that environment 2) Find a native linux alternative program 3) If it is a windows program, you might be able to get it working in wine | 06:23 |
| kevdog | Harrison_Bergero: winscp acts as an ftp and sftp client -- but you only have an ssh server installed | 06:23 |
| boojit | man, i stay about as far away from FTP as i possibly can. kevdog, Harrison_Bergero: I know you've already gone over this, but why aren't you just using SAMBA if on a lan and trying to easily move files from a win box to a linux box? | 06:23 |
| boojit | not to rehash old hash, but that seems like the obvious solution and it's so easy to set up -- integrated into gnome and all. | 06:24 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...other way around....im moving files from linux to windows and keep getting a connection timeout | 06:24 |
| boojit | using samba? | 06:24 |
| michal__ | keep gettin 'Error opening directory '/usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors'..whenever i try to mount a usb drive..was fine yesterday | 06:24 |
| ravenger | soreau: i had used the wine but its cannot install the pc suite it seems | 06:25 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...no just network tab copy/paste | 06:25 |
| kevdog | bonjit: I'm passing this one off to you -- I can see gettting this far was hard enough -- getting samba to work would be great and all -- but that is a much more difficult thing to get up and running IMO | 06:25 |
| Harrison_Bergero | brb | 06:26 |
| boojit | ok so -- you can browse to a windows network share from ubuntu w/o installing anything or anything | 06:26 |
| boojit | then just authenticate and move files to/fro in either direction. | 06:27 |
| boojit | but i'm guessing you are trying that and not having luck or something? | 06:27 |
| kevdog | boojit: Good luck and thanks!!! :0 | 06:27 |
| kevdog | Usually with samba webmin is a very good friend of mine :) | 06:28 |
| Harrison_Bergero | kevdog...thanks again | 06:28 |
| boojit | so Harrison_Bergero...did what I say make sense? | 06:28 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...yeah, i can see the windows machine and sometimes copy a file without problems | 06:29 |
| MrPiracy | i am having problems with my NVIDIA drivers ... somehow i installed it and i had to add it to /etc/rc.local (chmod 666 /dev/nvidia*). isn't there a way to make it permanent without the use in this file? | 06:29 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...most of the time i get a "connection timeout" error | 06:29 |
| Termana | MrPiracy theres your problem right there | 06:29 |
| Termana | MrPiracy: You set it to 666 - nothings bound to work with those numbers :P j/k | 06:30 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit....on the same LAN with another pc with windows copy-paste to target windows machine goes flawlessly | 06:30 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: have you tried doing the same thing but with a windows boot, just to make sure that your network connectivity isn't the issue? | 06:30 |
| boojit | ok | 06:30 |
| MrPiracy | Termana: it acctually works, but some random times i will have to reboot because this file wasn't read/processed | 06:30 |
| michal__ | 'volume(ext4) listed in /etc/fstab is refusing to mount' ??? | 06:30 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...the only thing i havent tried is swapping the CAT5 cable on the ubuntu machine | 06:31 |
| boojit | well what i would do is set up a ping going to the windows box, then start trying to repro the issue. See if you start getting RTOs when the connection times out | 06:31 |
| boojit | if you do, the problem is probably network related. | 06:31 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...ok, ping from terminal? | 06:31 |
| boojit | yeah so bring up term, ping the ip of the windows box. Then open up the windows network share, start the file copy, try to repro the issue, and then pay attention to what the ping window is doing during all of this. | 06:32 |
| coordinador | somebody knows | 06:32 |
| coordinador | aweonaOS ? | 06:32 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: in my experience, copying stuff from a Windows network share to/fro an ubuntu machine works absolutely flawlessly. And it has forever. | 06:33 |
| bRUC | hi all | 06:33 |
| MrPiracy | so, is there a way to make this command (chmod 666 /dev/nvidia*) good for all sessions not just the current one? | 06:33 |
| Billiard | MrPiracy: yes you can create a udev rule | 06:34 |
| === ShapeShifter499_ is now known as ShapeShifter499 | ||
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit..wow, that timedout immediately | 06:34 |
| MrPiracy | Billiard: any directions on how to do it? | 06:34 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit..so its a network issue? | 06:34 |
| boojit | so your ping is not returning at all, or is it spotty? | 06:34 |
| Billiard | MrPiracy: i can help you in pm | 06:34 |
| boojit | well it might be that you have windows firewall on and you are firewalling IMCP packets | 06:34 |
| cdoublejj | thats weird xubuntu install won't let my type anything in the login info creation boxes | 06:35 |
| boojit | which is the default, IIRC | 06:35 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit..didnt even get that far. Just attempted to copy a file across the network and got the "connection timeout" error | 06:35 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: so did you start the ping? | 06:35 |
| boojit | and if so what did it do? | 06:35 |
| teolicy | Hi. A week or so ago I downloaded 9.10's beta iso. I'm leaving today for a long trip, and want to prepare a bootable USB stick with the latest 9.10 (I know release is in 2 days, but my flight is in 12 hours...). Is the iso being regularly updated?

| jitender | hello dear all | 06:36 |
| OmniCitadel | Ok when I am watching hulu (via linux hulu desktop) it plays just fine in window mode and full screen mode up until I have been watching a full 15 minute segment then when in full screen mode it freezes, however if it is a 10 minute segment or 5 minute segment it is just fine... I am thinking it is a client issue but just wanted to ping you all and see if this smells the same as something you have heard about before | 06:36 |
| Flannel | teolicy: The RC is a few days old | 06:36 |
| jitender | any bady know cron backup command | 06:36 |
| Whitt | OmniCitadel, is your screensaver trying to come on then? | 06:36 |
| OmniCitadel | I should clairify that it is when it goes to a commercial break that causes it | 06:36 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit..ping is fine | 06:37 |
| OmniCitadel | whitt: no its directly at the commercial break | 06:37 |
| jitender | command for backup through cron | 06:37 |
| teolicy | Flannel: Aye, cheers. | 06:37 |
| boojit | ok so you have the ping cooking while you attempt to access the windows network folder from ubuntu, correct? | 06:37 |

| Termana | coordinador: Not really, why? | 06:42 |
| Andorin | Hoo boy... I must have made an edit to my xorg.conf that I wasn't supposed to, because now when I boot Ubuntu, the screen goes black right before the login screen and doesn't respond to anything. Help? | 06:43 |
| coordinador | Termana, just asking, thanks | 06:43 |
| boojit | jitender: what do you want help with? using cron? backing up your machine to tape? To a USB drive? to another computer on the network? | 06:43 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit....it just goes to that location on the windows box | 06:43 |
| jitender | to another computer | 06:44 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: ok so that works. And you can traverse the windows directory tree | 06:44 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit....y | 06:44 |
| jitender | and in my own computer | 06:44 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: ok so that is good. So but as soon as you start transferring a file from the win box to the linux box, you get connection timed out? | 06:44 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...other way. From linux to windows | 06:45 |
| Andorin | Can I just boot from a live CD and fix my xorg.conf? | 06:45 |
| boojit | ok so it works in one direction but not the other? | 06:45 |
| Harrison_Bergero | well, i havent tried sending from windows to linux | 06:45 |
| domo | how do i install a specific version of a package? | 06:45 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: try that. Send something 10MB or more | 06:45 |
| Harrison_Bergero | let me remote VNC into windows and try it | 06:45 |

| michal__ | i cant mount my usb drive...........'volume(ext4) listed in /etc/fstab is refusing to mount' | 06:46 |

| Harrison_Bergero | boojit..k | 06:46 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: it still smells like network connectivity to me. | 06:47 |
| Andorin | Can I fix my xorg.conf by booting from a live CD? | 06:47 |
| jitender | Boojit | 06:47 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...copying | 06:47 |
| boojit | jitender: do you already have a backup command and just need to know how to automate it with cron? or do you know how to use cron and just need help with a backup solution? or both? | 06:48 |

| boojit | jitender: ok you need to start with man cron. Start playing around with getting cron to work. Next, check out man rsync and then look here (one second i will find the link) | 06:49 |
| boojit | ok Harrison_Bergero: before we go any further, replace your network cable on your ubuntu box AND plug into a different port on your switch | 06:49 |
| boojit | and see if that fixes it | 06:49 |

| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...win to win with same CAT5 cable that im using now i copied 40GB without incident...no errors | 07:02 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: so as long as you are completely sure that network copying win->win is solid then doesn't seem like the problem shoudl be the HDD on your windows box. | 07:02 |

| luckymurali | I am using Ubuntu server 9.04\ | 07:04 |
| luckymurali | i m having some problem | 07:04 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit..the odd thing about it all is i can copy from windows to ubuntu but not the other way around | 07:04 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...before i go swapping out hardware id like to address that | 07:05 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: yeah that's why it feels network related | 07:05 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: as soon as the network load goes up, you have problems. When the load is down everything looks ok. | 07:05 |
| luckymurali | even im not doing any process 2 of my processeor is showing 100% usage | 07:05 |
| boojit | It could be something else, as you say, but if feels network-ey to me. | 07:05 |

| DaZ | luckymurali: botnet | 07:06 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...timed out again....told it to skip over | 07:06 |
| luckymurali | DaZ: what is that??? | 07:06 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: yeah but that's still an order of magnitude less network traffic than copying over the lan, because you're limited by your broadband connection | 07:06 |
| kenyon | !monitoring > luckymurali | 07:07 |
| ubottu | luckymurali, please see my private message | 07:07 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: ok i would try a couple of things. I would probably take that other windows box, the one that you copy successfully with, and boot that on an ubuntu live CD, see if you can copy reliably there. | 07:07 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...well yeah...lots of smaller connections as opposed to one connection with more load | 07:07 |
| boojit | Harrison_Bergero: yeah and an order of magnitude less load, don't forget. | 07:08 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit....that will have to wait....the suns already up! | 07:08 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...i need a trained monkey to keep skipping over each time a timeout occurs | 07:09 |
| boojit | yeah well keep testing it out, try copying to/fro USB drives to isolate your drive hypothesis. | 07:09 |
| minderaser | I'm rather stuck trying to restore my home directory if anyone is able to help. (explanation follows) | 07:10 |
| boojit | keep swapping out network stuff to see if you can isolate it. I mean, it could be your switch. Could be the network adapter in the ubuntu box. I really doubt it is the fault of the windows networking layer in Ubuntu -- i use that all the time, no issues. | 07:10 |
| minderaser | I was changing partitions around, and thought I could could just backup my /home/me directory to a USB and restore from there. I made a tarball of it, changed partitions around, unpacked the tarball, used find with touch to make all the dates current, and tried to cp them all to /home/me and voi-la! But, no matter what, some files/directories refuse to be overwritten (notably .profile and .mozilla) even as root. Hmmm... | 07:10 |

| Snicksie | minderaser, perhaps you'd better overwrite it in livecd-modus? perhaps it's because that directories and files are used? dunno ;) | 07:13 |
| boojit | uh. So you deleted a folder on the windows network drive by accident? how did you delete it? pressing delete? | 07:13 |
| boojit | yeah, i don't think deleted network folders go to the recycler. I'm not really sure. | 07:13 |
| Harrison_Bergero | boojit...i deleted in ubuntu...i wanted to delete the incomplete copied folder off windows and did it here by mistake | 07:14 |
| Harrison_Bergero | its not in the wastebasket! | 07:14 |
| Harrison_Bergero | grr | 07:14 |
| minderaser | Snicksie: That's a good thought, similar to one I had, so I tried it in cp them over in recovery mode at a root prompt and no dice. | 07:14 |
| Harrison_Bergero | SIGH | 07:14 |
| boojit | ok so you were on the ubuntu side and deleted a windows folder? or an ubuntu folder? | 07:14 |
| Snicksie | minderaser, so that didn't work? ;) | 07:14 |
| minderaser | Snicksie: I'm assuming that more-or-less rules out the "in use" idea, right? | 07:15 |
| Harrison_Bergero | on unbuntu and deleted an ubuntu folder | 07:15 |
| jedc | luckymurali, you cn type top into a terminal and it will show you which processes are using the most cpu | 07:15 |
| minderaser | Snicksie: nope, no luck that way either | 07:15 |

| zortec | Does anyone have the P6NGM2 (MS-7518) motherboard with the nVidia GeForce 7050/610i chipset. I am trying to find a manual on the video card to see what resolutions it can support. Any ideas? | 07:21 |
| boojit | ok i'm out. Later Harrison_Bergero. hope you find your stuff. | 07:21 |
| zortec | Much appreciated if you can point me to where there is a manual. | 07:21 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: hello good day | 07:21 |
| Albn99 | Hello. I am trying to figure out how to make the mouse position on the screen not "stick" as I move the thing around. Any ideas? | 07:22 |
| psychuil | Ok, so how do i install monodevelop? (btw, tab didn't work) | 07:22 |
| infidx | i have 3 computers on my local network and sshd running on two of them (/var/run/sshd.pid has a PID on both). Anyway i'm able to log into one computer but not the other with ssh infid@computername. the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/sshd_config files are exactly the same. any ideas? | 07:22 |
| ActionParsnip | hi indus | 07:22 |
| Snicksie | psychuil, sudo apt-get install monodevelop | 07:22 |
| ActionParsnip | !info monodevelop | 07:22 |
| ubottu | monodevelop (source: monodevelop): Development Environment for GNOME. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0+dfsg-2ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 4085 kB, installed size 13292 kB | 07:22 |
| Maje | I'm having issues getting my wifi card working on a terminal without Ubuntu...it's an Intel WiFi 5100 which according to Intel is included in the kernel, but the wifi card doesn't initialize on boot, anyone able to point me in the right direction? | 07:22 |
| zortec | psychuil: Most applications are installed through a package manager or from the cli using sudo apt-get appname | 07:22 |
| ActionParsnip | its in the universe repo | 07:22 |
| ActionParsnip | sudo apt-get install monodevelop | 07:22 |
| Maje | I'm just curious as to why Ubuntu supports it from-the-box when the kernel is "supposed" to do the same, what am I missing here? | 07:23 |
| zortec | Are there manuals available from nvidia's website on graphic cards? I haven't found any | 07:23 |
| TheKro | how do I find out what the proxy settings are for an application I launch from the menu (adobe air claims it uses the "current desktop environment's proxy settings"... | 07:23 |
| psychuil | E: Couldn't find package monodevelop | 07:23 |
| TheKro | Kubuntu | 07:23 |
| zortec | I checked MSI and they didn't have any info on that particular video chipset | 07:23 |
| zaoul | How could I make a key modifier so that when I say, hold alt and scroll... it will scroll horizontally? I am using xfce. | 07:23 |
| indus | zortec: what kind of manuals? | 07:23 |
| psychuil | ActionParsnip: it doesn't lovve me :\ | 07:23 |
| indus | zortec: check the manufacturer site | 07:23 |
| ayram | aammmm... in this channel speak english :S someone have a channel from Ubuntu in Spanish??? | 07:23 |
| ayram | :S | 07:24 |
| zortec | indus: I am trying to find a manual on the NVIDIA MCP 73U chipset | 07:24 |
| ayram | someone? | 07:24 |
| ActionParsnip | psychuil: check you have universe repos enabled | 07:24 |
| luckymurali | http://paste.ubuntu.com/302601/ | 07:24 |
| ActionParsnip | !es | 07:24 |
| ubottu | En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 07:24 |
| indus | zortec: hmm nvidia have it as a pdf on the site i believe so | 07:24 |
| psychuil | i have no idea how to do that :\ | 07:24 |
| TheKro | ayram: #ubuntu-es | 07:24 |
| luckymurali | jedc, | 07:24 |
| zortec | indus: Yeah I'm having trouble finding where they have pdf files on the site | 07:24 |
| indus | zortec: if you can locate the chipset on the site that is | 07:24 |
| ayram | gracias | 07:24 |
| ayram | :D | 07:24 |
| Maje | Para espanol...#ubuntu-es | 07:24 |
| luckymurali | please take a look on my process | 07:24 |
| indus | zortec: its on the left block somewhere | 07:25 |
| zortec | indus: I haven't had any luck in tracking down that particular chipset | 07:25 |
| luckymurali | list | 07:25 |
| n-named | i'm having problems with autossh on boot, i have it in a few locations but it doesn't work. It works when I type the command manually. Has anyone got this to work? | 07:25 |
| ayram | Bye :) | 07:25 |
| ayram | muchas gracias | 07:25 |
| ayram | :) | 07:25 |
| minderaser | I'm stuck trying to overwrite some config files in /home on a new install from a backup I made prior to the new install. Anyone have ideas why they won't write over the current ones? | 07:25 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: try: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /home/$USER | 07:26 |
| Maje | psychuil: system->administration->software sources will allow you to choose what repos you use | 07:26 |
| zortec | Searching for that chipset doesn't even come up on NVIDIA's website | 07:26 |
| n-named | i have the autossh command in both rc.local and gdm/Init/Default | 07:27 |
| cdoublejj | why when i click on the network icon in xubuntu the options are greyed out? | 07:27 |
| psychuil | Maje, i'm a complete n00b, can you please elaborate abit more? | 07:27 |
| Snicksie | cdoublejj, isn't there an option to 'auth'? ;) | 07:27 |
| indus | zortec: where is this chipset used? | 07:28 |
| zortec | Ok, I found a networking guide but I haven't seen a user manual or pdf on that chipset | 07:28 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: not quite sure I follow you there, but I wasn't very detailed in my explanation either. | 07:28 |
| zortec | indus: Not sure I understand the question | 07:28 |
| indus | zortec: is this on a motherboard? | 07:28 |
| n-named | does anyone have any tips to help me debug this? | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: you should be the owner of every file in your home directory | 07:28 |
| n-named | i have no idea where to start. apparently nobody online has gotten this working either (i searched the forums) | 07:28 |
| zortec | zortec: ah. yes, part of the MSI mainboard | 07:28 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I have a tarball of my previous /home/me, unpack it, chown it, even touch all the files to make the date current, and STILL some files won't get overwritten | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: files in backups are usually automatically made the owner of root so you will most likely need to take the power back | 07:29 |
| Maje | psychuil: The xxx->yyy->zzz thing tells you about menus. Under your system menu (as in applications, places, system) you might see administration, and then software sources | 07:29 |
| cdoublejj | wireless network bcm4318 | 07:29 |
| cdoublejj | wireless network microsfot bcm43xg | 07:29 |
| cdoublejj | vpn connections | 07:29 |
| cdoublejj | connect to hidden wirless | 07:29 |
| cdoublejj | create new network | 07:29 |
| FloodBot2 | cdoublejj: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:29 |
| cdoublejj | thats all i got | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: then you'll need to check the ls -al of the file, see whats going on | 07:29 |
| zortec | indus: I have d/l the motherboard manual, but it does not have much about the chipset so that is why I have been at nvidia's site | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | cdoublejj: dont do that, it scrolls the channel | 07:30 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: well, that's the problem right there (I think we're on the same page now) | 07:30 |
| cdoublejj | so how do i authorize this stuff? | 07:30 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: for the most part, files have correct ownership and current timestamp, but SOME just refuse to be updated | 07:30 |
| cdoublejj | even sounds is greyed out | 07:30 |
| zaoul | n-named: maybe make the script in /etc/init.d/ and see if services-admin will read it? | 07:30 |
| zaoul | kinda weird rc.local does not work | 07:30 |
| Albn99 | :( | 07:31 |
| n-named | zaoul: i put it in /etc/init.d/rc.local | 07:31 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I've even tried to do it from a root shell in recovery mode and they STILL won't get current timestamps | 07:31 |
| n-named | it is really odd | 07:31 |
| zaoul | n-named: what is the syntax you have in it? | 07:31 |
| zortec | indus: This is all the information I have | 07:31 |
| zortec | indus: http://pastebin.com/d35f8275 | 07:31 |
| zortec | I am trying to locate a pdf document to find out more about that chipset | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: timestamp isnt too critical, its the ownerships and the write access on the files | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: could try: sudo chmod -R o+w /home/$USER | 07:32 |
| indus | zortec: hmm so what problem do u have wit h it | 07:33 |
| indus | zortec: i think google is showing lots of stuff on it | 07:33 |
| indus | zortec: none of those good? | 07:33 |
| zortec | indus: the problem I have is what I find out the supported resolutions of that chipset since I am looking at upgrading the monitor | 07:33 |
| n-named | zaoul autossh -i /home/n/.ssh/id_rsa -f -N -L localhost:24800:other-host:24800 other-host & | 07:33 |
| zortec | indus: so I need to find out what monitors I can buy with that chipset | 07:34 |
| zaoul | n-named: ..weird | 07:34 |
| zaoul | Im not exactly sure what controls what scripts start up in ubuntu.. apartently there is no chkconfig | 07:35 |
| n-named | i've tried throwing it in a few locations for giggles | 07:35 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I follow what you're saying. 2 reasons I mention the timestamps: 1) I was researching this a bit and read that some files will not allow being overwritten with an older version, so I touch -ed them all to make them all more current. 2) It shows that the files in /home/me have NOT been overwritten | 07:35 |
| n-named | i.e.: /etc/rc.local /etc/init.d/rc.local | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: are they writable? | 07:35 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: good thought, let me look into that | 07:36 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: is there some form of archive bit on them (or can exist on files) | 07:36 |
| zortec | indus: I can't find the technical specs on that chipset | 07:36 |
| n-named | is there a way i can debug it? see the error or anything? | 07:36 |
| indus | zortec: hmm do you think some monitors wont work with it? | 07:36 |
| zortec | indus: it's possible if I get one with a super high res | 07:36 |
| zaoul | n-named: /var/log/messages maybe | 07:36 |
| zortec | indus: so would rather not take my chances | 07:36 |
| indus | zortec: unlikely | 07:37 |
| indus | zortec: its old chipset right? | 07:37 |
| n-named | zaoul: there is no var/log/messages.. :) | 07:37 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: writing perms look ok | 07:37 |
| zortec | indus: hmm. but still, nvidia should provide info on the chipset, no? | 07:37 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: you could covery all bases with: sudo chmod -R 750 /home/$USER | 07:37 |
| indus | zortec: yeah | 07:37 |
| steven_ | When I install Xubuntu on VirtualBox what version of Linux do I install it as? Xubuntu is not lasted as an option. Do I choose other Linux or Ubuntu 64-bit? | 07:37 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I don't know what you're talking about with archive bits though | 07:37 |
| zaoul | n-named: eww.. check you have a syslog | 07:37 |
| zortec | steven_: You can be safe just using 2.4 linux kernel | 07:37 |
| zaoul | n-named: that should be a default service in the distro | 07:38 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: are the files readable? If they are you could copy one to make a "new" version and delete the old | 07:38 |
| steven_ | Why not 2.6? | 07:38 |
| n-named | i have system.log | 07:38 |
| n-named | not messages | 07:38 |
| zortec | steven_: 2.6... sorry the highest one that is supported in VBox | 07:38 |
| n-named | oh, wait n/m | 07:38 |
| steven_ | k, thnx | 07:38 |
| n-named | wrong box.. | 07:38 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: yes, readable, writable (at least to owner) | 07:39 |
| zortec | indus: sure I can do trial and error, but I know it supports vga and dvi... what I want to know is the max res supported by nvidia geforce 7050/nforce 610i chipset | 07:39 |
| n-named | zortec: i see when it successfuly starts, when i run it myself | 07:39 |
| indus | zortec: wait | 07:39 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: good enough, try copying a known bad file and then try to edit the new file | 07:39 |
| n-named | although there is no mention of any error when i don't run it | 07:39 |
| n-named | when it should be run but isn't | 07:40 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I fail to see how doing a chown will help anything, because it will only affect the files that were generated on the install, not the backup ones I want to have there | 07:40 |
| indus | zortec: geforce 7050 basically | 07:40 |
| zortec | n-named: I think another user was helping you | 07:40 |
| zortec | n-named: was not paying attention to your issue | 07:40 |
| n-named | i mean zaoul, my mistake | 07:40 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: if they ar eare in /home/$USER they will be affected | 07:40 |
| zortec | indus: yeah, basically | 07:40 |
| zortec | indus: is there a pdf available on the 7050? | 07:41 |
| n-named | zaoul: ah, i see that it starts | 07:41 |
| n-named | but then the process doesn't exist anymore after i log in | 07:41 |
| zortec | n-named I suggest you add & to keep it running in the bg | 07:42 |
| zaoul | n-named: any logs for ...what was the app again? | 07:42 |
| zortec | n-named: or use the fg and bg commands to put processes in the foreground and background | 07:42 |
| zaoul | ssh.. | 07:42 |
| n-named | i have an & zortec | 07:42 |
| n-named | zaoul: i see this in messages | 07:42 |
| n-named | ssh child pid is 2923 | 07:43 |
| indus | zortec: interestingly ther isnt any for the 7050 | 07:43 |
| n-named | but then when i check, the process isn't there | 07:43 |
| indus | zortec: need to report to nvidia this | 07:43 |
| n-named | so i think it starts or attempts to, but then gets killed | 07:43 |
| zortec | indus: what do you mean there isn't any? that is odd... | 07:43 |
| indus | zortec: got it | 07:44 |
| zaoul | n-named: any log of that /var/log/ssh... ? | 07:44 |
| zaoul | first step is getting some debug info | 07:44 |
| indus | zortec: http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_35712.html | 07:44 |
| n-named | var/log/ssh? | 07:44 |
| zaoul | anything ... under /var/log/ | 07:44 |
| indus | zortec: i suggest you go to MSI website, and check it | 07:44 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: update...and this makes no sense to me. I did "cp -p .profile" from my restore file to /home/$USER and now it looks fine. Why didn't it work when I did "cp -pr /restore/me/* /home/me" I wonder? | 07:44 |
| zaoul | that could be related | 07:44 |
| indus | zortec: iam sure it will be there | 07:44 |
| n-named | i grep'd for ssh | 07:44 |
| n-named | don't see anything rleated | 07:44 |
| n-named | snot sure why it's getting killed.. | 07:45 |
| zaoul | hell you could grep .. | 07:45 |
| zaoul | lol | 07:45 |
| n-named | ah, here | 07:45 |
| zortec | indus: but where do you find resolution in that? | 07:45 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: hmmm strange, not sure myself | 07:45 |
| n-named | ssh exited prematurely with status 255; autossh exiting | 07:45 |
| zaoul | grep -r ssh /var/log | 07:45 |
| ekontsevoy | how do I uninstall a package which I installed from a deb file? | 07:45 |
| n-named | in user.log | 07:46 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I guess I can go through and find each individual file that's not current timestamp and do that, but gaaaawwwd what a pain. The cp -rp * SHOULD work | 07:46 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: totally, bt of al ballache, maybe you could script it | 07:46 |
| indus | zortec: got it wait | 07:47 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I'm not at all proficient with scripting, not at all. You can see I _somewhat_ know my way around a Linux system, but I don't script at all | 07:47 |
| n-named | i think i know what it is | 07:47 |
| oliver3 | Is it possible to use OSSv4 on Ubuntu... without resorting to hair pulling? | 07:48 |
| n-named | i'm using hostname instead of @hostname | 07:48 |
| n-named | and it gets run as root, which will fail | 07:48 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: but, hey, thanks for all your help!! | 07:48 |
| indus | zortec: cant find res but what monitor are you talking abbout? | 07:48 |
| n-named | it's t;rying to log in as root... | 07:48 |
| indus | zortec: best is manufacturer page but it should support upto 1900 and above easy | 07:48 |
| zortec | indus: yeah that is what I was trying to find | 07:48 |
| ActionParsnip | minderaser: you got some gold at least :) | 07:49 |
| n-named | nope that's not it | 07:49 |
| n-named | blah | 07:49 |
| indus | zortec: K9NGM3 board? | 07:49 |
| minderaser | ActionParsnip: ??? | 07:49 |
| jitender | ActionParsnip, pls help me for type the command in crontab file for backup schedule | 07:49 |
| cdoublejj | >will fwcutter work on xubuntu | 07:49 |
| ActionParsnip | !cron | jitender | 07:50 |
| ubottu | jitender: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. 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 | 07:50 |
| indus | zortec: it has single link DVI support so be careful | 07:50 |
| zortec | indus: MS-7518 | 07:50 |
| indus | zortec: Blazing-fast RAMDAC supports display with high, ergonomic refresh rates up to and including 1920x1440@75Hz. | 07:51 |

| minderaser | ActionParsnip: I'm going to reboot into recovery mode and try to beat the hell out of this with the sledgehammer of root and see what I can do. See you around | 07:51 |
| indus | zortec: so dont expect 1080p res | 07:52 |
| PerryArmstrong | hey can anyone help me... i have been asked by my department head to host the department website in the server along with the college website. Already the department website has been hosted and i need to shift it from there to our college server. I have been given a choice of using either fedora or install another server of my choice and host the site in it... I want to know how i can do this.. | 07:52 |
| indus | zortec: its integrated so what u expect | 07:52 |
| indus | zortec: but check with MSI for specifics | 07:52 |
| zortec | indus: where did you find that? I see the 7050 | 07:52 |
| zortec | indus: but not the 610i on there | 07:52 |
| satya | i cant see video on ubuntu | 07:52 |
| ActionParsnip | satya: turn your monitor on | 07:53 |
| indus | zortec: 610 is the southbridge for media storage and communications , nothing to do with display | 07:53 |
| zortec | indus: where do you see the res? | 07:54 |
| indus | zortec: its mentioned keep reading | 07:54 |
| satya | i m not joking,,,in ubuntu9.04,,,i cant see videos in youtube | 07:54 |

| ActionParsnip | satya: can you please use http://pastebin.com to give the output of: dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf | 07:57 |
| ActionParsnip | satya: much better, makes it less confusing in a channel ofnearly 1400 users ;) | 07:58 |

| chilli0 | Hello , is there anyway to turn up the bass on ubuntu ? | 08:04 |
| chilli0 | lol | 08:04 |
| Bodsda | chilli0: one of the bars in 'alsamixer' might be bass, not sure though | 08:04 |
| tstebut | Hello | 08:04 |
| Bodsda | hi | 08:05 |
| chilli0 | Bodsda: Where can i get to alsamixer? | 08:05 |
| Bodsda | chilli0: run the command 'alsamixer' without quotes from the terminal | 08:06 |
| chilli0 | Bodsda: Is there a gui one? | 08:06 |
| cdoublejj | how do i gain admin in xubuntu? | 08:06 |
| Bodsda | dunno, why would you want a gui one when alsamixer is just as good | 08:06 |
| Bodsda | cdoublejj: I would assume through sudo | 08:06 |
| tstebut | I'd like to easy change timer frequency on a non debian vm, in order to make it less greedy with the host CPU | 08:06 |
| George_E | cdoublejj use the sudo command | 08:06 |

| vtec_ | oh | 08:52 |

| DJones | vtec_: Its not something I've done myself, but thats how I read ubottu's message | 08:53 |
| vtec_ | DJones: will that remove all my desktop settings I have at the moment? | 08:53 |
| DJones | vtec_: I'm not sure about that, I'm sure somebody else in the channel will know the answer though, it might just take a bit of time for somebody who knows to come into the channel | 08:54 |
| vtec_ | alright DJones I appreciate it mate | 08:54 |
| kuksi | hey | 08:55 |
| vtec_ | Guess there is only one way to find out | 08:55 |

| vtec_ | What is a linux shell? Basically a command? | 09:02 |
| Blizzerand | vtec_ : Nothing much , | 09:02 |
| indus | vtec_: synaptic is a more advanced vresion with more control over packages etc | 09:02 |
| ziroday | vtec_: Synaptic lists every application (including libraries and *-dev packages) whilst Add/Remove only lists applications. If you're not sure use Add/Remove | 09:02 |
| securityadmin | synaptic is a more advance version of add/ remove | 09:02 |
| Blizzerand | !synaptic | 09:02 |
| ubottu | synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 09:02 |

| indus | vtec_: add/remove sucks anyway | 09:02 |

| iceroot | Linx: what is linux4one? | 09:02 |
| Blizzerand | Linx : Use #linux | 09:02 |
| vtec_ | I understand | 09:02 |

| ubottu | Linx: 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 :) | 09:03 |

| Plasma2000 | Hello Everybody. I'm an absolute beginner with Linux and wanted to create a bootable USB stick with the current CD image of ubuntu on it from Windows. Here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick) they say that the usb creator is in the root of the CD, but it isn't (at least not in the available i386 32bit isos). Am I searching for that tool in the wrong place? | 09:04 |
| ziroday | Plasma2000: did you download the latest version of ubuntu? | 09:05 |
| securityadmin | really all you have to do is copy the cd files to the usb stick | 09:05 |
| Bruc | hey wsup all | 09:05 |
| securityadmin | the auto run will take over | 09:05 |
| indus | Plasma2000: to create it from windows you use a software called unetbootin | 09:05 |
| indus | securityadmin: that is totally wrong | 09:05 |
| securityadmin | that is how i did it in windows | 09:06 |
| Plasma2000 | @ziroday: yes, not only that one, but also the currently available beta and the older 8.x available for download - all of them not containing the usb creator tool. | 09:06 |
| securityadmin | not bootable of course | 09:06 |
| ziroday | Plasma2000: hmm they should, give me a second | 09:06 |
| DJones | vtec_: Great, glad to hear its worked | 09:06 |

| indus | ziroday: the usb creator tool is present on the cd? | 09:07 |
| overmacht | securityadmin: sorry, i don't have any glue. so far i'm not have trouble with that. | 09:07 |
| ziroday | indus: it should be | 09:07 |
| vtec_ | Appler, what? | 09:07 |
| ziroday | Plasma2000: try running wubi.exe, does it give you the option to use the usb creator? | 09:07 |
| securityadmin | how do i check the log | 09:07 |
| Appler | vtec_ : Never mind | 09:08 |
| indus | ziroday: hmm i dont think thats how you install it | 09:08 |
| securityadmin | when it tells me that it can't mount where is that stored | 09:08 |
| Plasma2000 | @indus + ubottu: thanks for the links and tools names: will have a looka lso to them - i just was surprised by the help stating that the usb creator should be on the cd, but at least I can't see it in the root (also the search doesn't find it) | 09:08 |
| shell_ | hi | 09:09 |
| indus | Plasma2000: so suppose the usb creator is in the root? (whatever that means) , how exactly do u use it to burn to usb? | 09:09 |
| securityadmin | any one in the room that can help me mount a ext4 file system on a ext 3 installed linus | 09:09 |
| shell_ | how to setting dsplay | 09:09 |

| ziroday | Plasma2000: yep I'm looking through it now and for the life of me can't find it either. unetbootin should do the trick, ubottu had some other useful links :) | 09:10 |

| indus | Plasma2000: i think its wrongly mentioned it comes on cd, i havent seen it | 09:13 |

| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: erm well you need somewhere to host the website for one | 09:14 |
| indus | Plasma2000: i also recommend using an empty usb to create it, i have had issues booting otherwise | 09:14 |

| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; i heard that w can put it in our own server | 09:14 |
| sentencia | i have changed the sshd port by some reason | 09:14 |
| sentencia | i have changed the port on server.cfg and node.cfg | 09:14 |
| Plasma2000 | @indus: not only the ubuntu help mentiones it's on the ubuntu cdm but also wikipedia (at least the german one) - this is somehow confusing.. | 09:15 |
| sentencia | should i change it in somewhere else? | 09:15 |
| indus | Plasma2000: which version of live cd u downloaded? | 09:15 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: erm well your server will need a webserver, and you will obviously need a domain | 09:15 |

| Bruc | hey deh | 09:18 |
| securityadmin | then all the team has to do is click links on the company page to get there | 09:18 |

| indus | good day | 09:19 |
| securityadmin | i really need help mounting a ext4 file system any one help please | 09:20 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; we already hosted it in somewhere...i was asked to install a webserver and host it in it | 09:20 |
| Plasma2000 | @ziroday: thanks! - will try it immediately :) | 09:20 |
| indus | ziroday: well, karmic isnt out yet, and what do you mean i believe? | 09:20 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: okay, well do you have a commercial internet connection with a static IP and port forwarding enabled, or is the server directly connected to the internet and not through a router? | 09:20 |
| Plasma2000 | @indus: ok - will for sure help those coming from Windows wanting to have a look at ubuntu from usb | 09:20 |
| indus | ziroday: its wrong info and we should correct it | 09:21 |
| ziroday | indus: you do whatever you want to. | 09:21 |
| indus | :) | 09:21 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; directly connected to the internet | 09:21 |
| securityadmin | same concept put links in the company's web page and use login credits to access | 09:21 |
| pixie_pie | can anyone tell me... is ubuntu 4.3 BSD Unix? | 09:21 |
| indus | ziroday: iam just removing the line 'available on cd' it isnt | 09:21 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: right, and do you have a commercial internet connection with a static IP? | 09:21 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; what difference does this make? | 09:21 |
| securityadmin | your ip changes if you don't | 09:22 |
| securityadmin | have static | 09:22 |
| pixie_pie | what i'm really wanting to know is if ubuntu supports the _POSIX_SAVED_IDS feature | 09:22 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; what does commercial internet connection mean? | 09:22 |
| securityadmin | then following links and typing in adresses don't stay constint | 09:22 |
| securityadmin | static IP high up loads | 09:22 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: well its usually against consumer internet plans terms and conditions to host a webserver. Secondly dynamic IP's make it very difficult to host content, as your IP address is always moving | 09:22 |
| indus | DONE | 09:22 |
| indus | bruc did you solve your problem from yesterday? | 09:23 |
| securityadmin | well not always but it can | 09:23 |
| securityadmin | there are ways around it though | 09:23 |
| securityadmin | just gets more complicated | 09:23 |
| sentencia | someone can give me a clue about my problem? | 09:24 |
| napster | Is there any fully functional app that can generate instrument sounds...? | 09:24 |

| Bruc | glad u asked.... | 09:25 |
| indus | Bruc hey | 09:25 |
| securityadmin | well looks like just like every time i try and use you people for help you help every one else but me i wonder why i even try any more | 09:25 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday, securityadmin; i dont know much about this static and dynamic IP...i want to learn more about it...and also if not in the college server i can put it at home...i am directly connected to the internet | 09:25 |
| poyntz | as in, the comment boxes that tell you what document you're in, etc. | 09:25 |
| Bruc | i got a seperate drive to just install ubuntu..that how much i like it hehe | 09:25 |
| indus | bruc good for you :) | 09:26 |
| Bruc | everytime i install windows on the drive something happens... | 09:26 |
| Bruc | same drive i mean | 09:26 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: the issue is with a dynamic IP address your IP address is constantly changing, therefore your DNS records will constantly be wrong and people won't be able to connect to your server | 09:27 |
| Bruc | anyways hard driver are cheap this days.. | 09:27 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday, securityadmin; and i like to do this on an ubuntuserver...people usually go for a fedora server saying that it has more security...but i am used to ubuntu | 09:27 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; then how can i get a static IP?? | 09:27 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: you usually get a static IP through a commercial internet connection | 09:28 |
| robin | hello | 09:28 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; you mean a service provider right?? | 09:28 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: hosting a server by yourself is very, very complicated. I recommend you look into shared hosting or a VPS instead. | 09:28 |

| richardcavell | When Karmic is final-release, will it be the case that this IRC channel will no longer recommend that users install Jaunty? | 09:29 |

| zizo_ | any one there | 09:31 |
| civciv | Hello, I need some help about emulating a network .exe file. | 09:31 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: what's what? | 09:31 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; shared hosting or VPN?? | 09:31 |
| civciv | How am I supposed to enter the address of the network file to wine? any idea? | 09:32 |
| FiReSTaRT | richardcavell: this channel will stop supporting jaunty and will switch to supporting karmic.. there might be a legacy support channel but i don't know about it because i keep updating to fresher versions (mostly to get better hardware support) | 09:32 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: shared hosting is where you pay monthly for some space on a web server and host your content. A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a virtual server which acts as if you completely control it but the actual machine is split into different virtual machines. Both of these options have assorted monthly costs | 09:33 |
| ziroday | FiReSTaRT: this channel supports all versions of Ubuntu that are not at their end of life (see !eol) | 09:33 |
| richardcavell | FiReSTaRT: I think this channel will still support Jaunty | 09:33 |
| ziroday | richardcavell: so yes, we will still support jaunty :) | 09:33 |
| FiReSTaRT | ziroday: thanks for the correction richardcavell, sorry about the misunderstanding | 09:33 |
| richardcavell | I'm not doubting that Jaunty will still be supported... I'm asking whether Jaunty will be no longer recommended | 09:34 |
| ziroday | richardcavell: recommended for what? | 09:34 |
| === MadMax is now known as MaxSid | ||
| FiReSTaRT | ziroday: it's just that this channel is pretty tight on excluding the upcoming releases so i figured it would also go the other way lol | 09:34 |
| richardcavell | I maintain some instructions for installing Jaunty on Intel-based Macs. I'm wondering whether my instructions should be deprecated once Karmic is released | 09:34 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; okk but we already have hosted our department site in a hosting service but our department head has asked us to this as an assignment so that we can learn how these things work | 09:35 |
| PerryArmstrong | ziroday; it was actually my request and he accepted it... | 09:35 |
| ziroday | PerryArmstrong: right, and most web servers are not hosted on home connections, anyway this has long gone past being ubuntu support so feel free to join me in #ubuntu-offtopic and continue discussing your options | 09:36 |
| FiReSTaRT | richardcavell: in any case, keep the jaunty instructions.. some people just don't have the nerve to upgrade.. my uncle's a perfect example.. i put jaunty on his desktop machine and had i not extended my european trip, i would have had him keep jaunty for about a year | 09:36 |
| ziroday | richardcavell: I would have a seperate karmic section if the instructions have changed, but if not sure I would ask the wiki team | 09:36 |
| EvaLuaTe | hello | 09:36 |
| satya | i cant see video in youtube,,somebody help me | 09:37 |
| FiReSTaRT | satya: you need flash | 09:37 |
| richardcavell | ziroday: the wiki team are a bit hit and miss | 09:37 |
| prasad | do u have flash installed | 09:37 |
| richardcavell | I was able to thoroughly edit my instructions because I practised installing on my own Mac | 09:37 |
| richardcavell | Karmic supports Macs a fair bit better than Jaunty | 09:37 |
| FiReSTaRT | satya: system, administration, synaptic package manager... type flashplugin into the search box, check the box next to flashplugin-nonfree, click on mark for installation, click on apply and once it's installed you'll be able to watch u2b vids | 09:38 |
| richardcavell | kernel mode setting, Intel GMA drivers, hotkeys | 09:38 |
| th1_ | does anyone know why karmic updates suddenly are broken w.r.t. authentication? I don't want to install 100 unsigned packages.. | 09:38 |
| EvaLuaTe | i will appearantly have to reinstall windows, as i need it to run some programs that i need at school. If i install it on the same drive with ubuntu (because it appearantly won't install on a external hdd) it will most probably overwrite the mbr. So, my question, is there any possibility, after the installation of windows, to modify the mbr, so that I can dual boot windows and ubuntu, without rein | 09:38 |
| EvaLuaTe | stalling ubuntu? | 09:38 |
| satya | FiReSTaRT: thanks:) | 09:39 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: why don't you just run windoze under virtualization.. that's what i did when i needed to run ESRI for school | 09:39 |

| EvaLuaTe | FiReSTaRT: i need to run some graphical applications that appearantly won't run under virtualbox... | 09:40 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: before you decide on a dual-boot config, try virtualization.. google virtual box... that's how i ran windows (as long as you can dedicate enough ram) | 09:40 |
| EvaLuaTe | DJones: thanks, i'll check that :) | 09:40 |

| th1_ | zetheroo1, I have it on a desktop and on a netbook (Eee 1000HE) | 09:41 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: ahh ok.. in that case i'd just use supergrub disk to destroy the mbr for the windows box, boot into ubuntu, install grub2 and it'll support everything | 09:41 |
| indus | zetheroo1: desktop, nvidia graphics , AMD chipset board | 09:42 |
| indus | zetheroo1: cd rom drive doesnt work, hasnt worked since intrepid | 09:42 |

| zetheroo1 | th1_: is there issues with optical drives? | 09:43 |
| indus | zetheroo1: all good | 09:43 |
| indus | zetheroo1: no , its a problem specific to my mobo | 09:43 |
| zetheroo1 | indus: oh ok | 09:43 |
| th1_ | zetheroo1, not for me I was just saying it because indus said so | 09:43 |
| zetheroo1 | indus: any reasons that one should upgrade ? any enhancements to speak of? | 09:44 |
| zetheroo1 | th1_: ^^ | 09:44 |
| indus | zetheroo1: ya its all fine now, sound with pulseaudio also nice according to people | 09:44 |
| th1_ | newer firefox, nicer default theme, etc.. :) | 09:44 |
| th1_ | there are lots of smallish things | 09:44 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: i was doing one dual-boot configuration... grub legacy would make windoze unbootable.. doing fixmbr/fixboot would make ubuntu unbootable... so what i did was boot ubuntu, sudo apt-get install grub-pc and voila.. but hang on i'll dig up the instructions that i used | 09:44 |
| indus | zetheroo1: its super fast boot, ultra fast shutdown , but otherwise has ext4 file system, disk utility for HDD status, newer packges, empathy as default IM which sucks but anyways | 09:45 |
| th1_ | zetheroo1, you don't get ext4 features if you upgrade from jaunty though | 09:45 |
| th1_ | unless you re-format your disks | 09:45 |
| indus | zetheroo1: a new choco window border , theme tweaks | 09:45 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-grub-2-on-ubuntu-9.04 but i do have one warning for you so wait for the next message | 09:45 |
| indus | zetheroo1: nothing spectacular, that will probably come in 10.04 | 09:46 |
| zetheroo1 | th1_ , indus: I am already using ext4 | 09:46 |
| th1_ | ok | 09:46 |
| th1_ | well also what indus said: faster boot | 09:46 |
| th1_ | but I don't boot that often that it bothers me | 09:46 |
| th1_ | but the splash screen is nicer :) | 09:46 |
| zetheroo1 | th1_ , indus: yeah I could always do with a faster boot - ha | 09:46 |
| zetheroo1 | th1_ , indus: so is empathy worse than pidgin? | 09:47 |
| indus | zetheroo1: bah its a useless ffeature really, 1 min saved in a day is nothing really | 09:47 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: both systems were on hd1 (bios settings), but the upgrade-from-grub-legacy script installs grub to hd0 by default.. so i needed to dig it up (it's in /usr/sbin) and edit the hd0 to hd1 (this may be an unnecessary step, but check your menu.lst file to make sure) | 09:47 |
| th1_ | dunno I only use pidgin :) | 09:47 |
| indus | zetheroo1: its personal choice but i hate it | 09:47 |
| indus | zetheroo1: its ugly | 09:47 |
| zetheroo1 | th1_ , indus: I recall trying out empathy a while back and went straight back to pidgin | 09:47 |
| indus | zetheroo1: try it, though, voice/video over msn is promised in future | 09:47 |
| zetheroo1 | th1_ , indus: any idea why the switch? | 09:48 |
| indus | zetheroo1: iam going back to pidgin too in a day or so | 09:48 |
| EvaLuaTe | FiReSTaRT: ok, thank you very much :) | 09:48 |
| th1_ | zetheroo1, pidgin is still supported fine | 09:48 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: if your linux is already under hd0,0 or hd0,1 or hd0,whatever, you don't need to edit the script.. if it's under hd1,whatever or hd2,whatever (who knows what sort of a hardware configuration you have), you will need to edit to suit | 09:48 |
| indus | zetheroo1: just a canonical decision | 09:48 |
| ziroday | indus: voice and video chat for MSN works in empathy, you just need to use the empathy PPA | 09:48 |
| ziroday | indus: and it was *not* a canonical decision | 09:48 |
| indus | ziroday: it doesnt, i have tried | 09:48 |
| indus | ziroday: with the ppa | 09:48 |
| ziroday | indus: it does, I have tried. | 09:48 |
| zetheroo1 | ziroday: oh that is a nice feature | 09:48 |
| indus | ziroday: doessnt for me. | 09:49 |
| th1_ | zetheroo1, probably because of the name - ubuntu admins are suckers for "cozy" names ;) and pidgin = flying rat so .... | 09:49 |

| th1_ | but skype for linux is so sucky buggy POS | 09:52 |
| zetheroo1 | th1_: oh right, well for me its broke everywhere... super dark picture | 09:52 |
| indus | ziroday: was kidding | 09:52 |
| th1_ | zetheroo1, it might be fixed in karmic then, the kernel is much newer | 09:52 |
| jitender | any body can help me to run rsync command for backup | 09:53 |
| zetheroo1 | does anyone know how to manually brighten the webcam image? ... I heard there was a file somewhere where you could up the brightness etc ... | 09:53 |

| indus | zetheroo1: wont save on reboot though | 09:53 |

| jitender | help me budys | 09:54 |
| ziroday | farciarz84: Lyx or OpenOffice Word | 09:54 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: good luck and i wish you about 1% of the time investment that i had to put in to get a dual-boot setup going ;) | 09:54 |

| harri_ | i'm trying to run something on a remote machine over ssh. Appending -display :0.0 doesn't work, export DISPLAY=:0.0 doesn't work. How can i find the current display on the remote machine? | 09:56 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: by the way if you don't wanna waste a cd, you can always use the autosupergrub disk and install it from the windows box.. if you give me a second i'll dig up those two links :P | 09:56 |
| th1_ | harri_, if you use "ssh -X user@host" it shoudl set it automatically unless X tunelling is disabled | 09:57 |
| th1_ | harri_, check /etc/ssh/sshd_config and see if X11Forwarding is "yes" | 09:57 |
| th1_ | (on the target computer) | 09:57 |
| indus | jitender: dont expect full steps here | 09:58 |
| th1_ | if not, make it so and sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart | 09:58 |
| indus | jitender: google for it and you have to help yourself | 09:58 |
| indus | jitender: you havent even mentioned what problem you faced when running rsync | 09:58 |
| StrangeCharm | i think that grub is looking at the wrong disk to read its config (&c) from, from a live environment that can mount /boot, on the right disk, what changes should i make to get it to look at the right disk/partition? | 09:58 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, grub1 or grub2? | 09:59 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto <-- general grub how to, http://www.supergrubdisk.org/wiki/AutoSuperGrubDisk <-- to get the autosupergrubdisk (for some reason it worked for me while the unetwhatever disk didn't work) | 09:59 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, grub2 | 09:59 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, check /boot/grub/device.map | 10:00 |
| harri_ | th1_, I don't wan 't to tunnel anything.. I want to run a remote app on a remote computer on its local display | 10:00 |
| indus | zetheroo1: i forgot to say, it uses grub2 now which is more difficult | 10:00 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, i'm looking at device.map, but i'm not sure what the correct changes are. i don't know what this file is meant to do. | 10:01 |
| th1_ | harri_, ok I see, is the user you're logged in as on ssh also logged into the local X session ? | 10:01 |
| FiReSTaRT | EvaLuaTe: ok time for me to tcb, so good luck with your dualboot setup... ciao :) | 10:01 |

| hno | Do anyone know how to most easily download a ubuntu deb package, preferablu using apt or similar? | 10:02 |
| koshari | hno apt-get | 10:02 |
| th1_ | harri_, ps ax | grep X should give you a display number | 10:02 |
| hno | koshari: I only want to download the package, not install it. | 10:02 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, i know which disk /boot is on, but i don't know which disk grub is reading from | 10:03 |
| jitender | when i run rsync its show failed in terminal | 10:03 |
| koshari | hno: installing is "apt-get package install" | 10:03 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, it should read it from the same where it read the MBR from | 10:03 |
| invitingdopeman | how do i get aircrack | 10:03 |
| invitingdopeman | ? | 10:04 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, i don't know which that is either | 10:04 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, try booting from a GRUB2 bootable USB key and examine what is what | 10:04 |
| hno | koshari: I know.. just can't figure out how to get apt-get to download without messing with system package status. | 10:05 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, a grub2 bootable usb key? how would i determine what's going on? | 10:05 |
| th1_ | the grub2 command line is like a shell | 10:06 |
| koshari | hno how does the -d switch mess with the package list? | 10:06 |
| th1_ | you can ls files and stuff | 10:06 |
| hno | koshari: That checks if the pacage is already installed and skips download.. | 10:06 |
| hno | koshari: Plust that it needs to run as root.. | 10:07 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, i can already get the grub rescue environment on this box. surely i can get from there to wherever i need to be? | 10:07 |
| koshari | hno if its already there it will be in the apt cache, so you should be able to copy it from there | 10:07 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, if you can then you are fine.. then you can ls (hd0) etc | 10:07 |
| Sdaros | hi there I am trying to install google earth to my ubuntu box but the download link does not function, address is here http://earth.google.com/intl/en/ do I have to install something for it to function? | 10:07 |

| wWales | how many colors can the gimp color picker tool distinguish between? | 10:08 |
| Sdaros | koshari: didn't know about that, is that from add remove programs | 10:08 |
| koshari | hno you could manually download it through the ubuntu site, | 10:09 |
| koshari | !medibuntu | 10:09 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 10:09 |
| Sdaros | thank you very much for the tip, let me check | 10:10 |
| hno | koshari: I know, but that's a mess. Need something I can script. | 10:10 |
| koshari | hno aptcacher ng may be something to check out | 10:11 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, ls gives me 'unknown filesystem' on every disk i ask for | 10:11 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, what does plain "ls" give? | 10:11 |

| NET||abuse | aimtrainer, if it's internal device it'l likely already mounted.. | 10:13 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, does it say "unknown filesystem" for all of those (ignore fd0, that's the floppy)? | 10:13 |
| indus | aimtrainer: ls -l /dev/sd* | 10:13 |

| NET||abuse | aimtrainer, otherwise,, just type "mount" into command line,, it'll be listed. | 10:14 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, check if /boot/grub/ has the GRUB file system modules you need (e.g. ext2.mod) | 10:14 |
| aimtrainer | it is mounted | 10:14 |
| aimtrainer | but I need the /dev/... to buirn in console | 10:14 |
| indus | aimtrainer: ya in a terminal type mount | 10:14 |
| NET||abuse | ok, just hitting mount on the command line will show you the device location and the mount point.. so you should be able to determine it fro that. | 10:14 |
| indus | aimtrainer:wil be in last lines /dev/scd0 or something | 10:14 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, how would ls be working if it didn't? | 10:15 |

| eevar2 | ActionParsnip: thanks | 10:16 |
| indus | aimtrainer: navigate to it and see whats in it | 10:16 |
| aimtrainer | alright thanks again | 10:16 |

| indus | aimtrainer: enjoy | 10:17 |
| indus | zer0x: easier with mount command :) | 10:17 |
| StrangeCharm | th1_, and after insmod ext2, i still get unknown filesystems | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Temujin2: no, you may be able to call it from gparted though, why so afraid of command line | 10:17 |
| zer0x | indus: true, but if there was nothing mounted :D | 10:17 |
| indus | zer0x: hmm | 10:17 |
| Temujin2 | i haven't got time for it | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Temujin2: to fsck the partition or disk needs to be unmounted | 10:18 |
| th1_ | StrangeCharm, what file systems would you expect to find on (hd0,1) and (hd1,1) respectively? | 10:18 |
| zer0x | indus: lshw FTW :D | 10:18 |
| Temujin2 | ActionParsnip, i'm going to be running ubuntu off a cd | 10:18 |
| indus | zer0x: yeah but that A5 B5 what does it do? | 10:18 |

| DigitalKiwi | indus: why don't you try it and see if an op bans you? ;D | 12:11 |
| indus | ubuntu-offtopic has a solution | 12:11 |
| indus | maybe | 12:11 |
| Varan | Is it possible to get a list of packages that I have installed ... you can use 'dpkg --get-selections' but this list is very long .. is there a way to view a shorter list that is more meaning full? | 12:12 |
| indus | DigitalKiwi: lol ok | 12:12 |
| Halitech | cristi_, thanks for the heads up, I won't :) | 12:12 |

| m41n1 | Guys, do you know if you can use Ubuntu One to mount a SVN? | 12:16 |

| MixMix | Prentice: is the hardware ok? Does it work on another computer? Does a light come on? | 12:19 |
| indus | jet_: just for information, doing a dpkg-reconfigure <pacakage> will help | 12:19 |
| indus | jet_: assuming you are having troubles with somevideo device | 12:19 |
| Prentice | MixMix: the light flashes and it works fine on my windows pc | 12:19 |
| Halitech | cdoublejj, killall -9 <packagename> or xkill if its a gui app and showing | 12:19 |

| ltspadmin | after click on unlock (in users settings) password popup shoud come but its not come in ubuntu 8.04 because of that i cannot create an user | 12:20 |
| MixMix | Prentice: not sudo should work fine | 12:20 |

| Ozzy | indus: It can't be, because when I boot up it drops to a busybox shell saying it can't find my root device | 12:20 |

| newM41n1 | hi guys, do you know if you can use Ubuntu One as SVN? | 12:22 |
| MixMix | Prentice: if you type mount on its own does it show up? | 12:22 |
| Prentice | newM41n1: repeat | 12:22 |
| Prentice | MixMix: what do you mean | 12:22 |
| newM41n1 | sorry, i thought i was logged out | 12:22 |
| MixMix | Prentice: type mount | 12:22 |
| Varan | zer0x: I mean more like a tool that only shows only the things that I have explicitly installed. | 12:23 |
| zer0x | Varan: dpkg -l will list only installed packages, the list wil be very long on a desktop install :D | 12:24 |
| Prentice | MixMix: Ok typed mount in terminal | 12:24 |
| gerald_ | hi | 12:24 |
| zer0x | Varan: dpkg -l | wc -l gives 1718 packages on my current install | 12:25 |
| Prentice | MixMix: u there? | 12:25 |
| zer0x | Varan: ah, you mean what you have installed manually since the initial install?... umm, not sure | 12:26 |
| Halitech | Varan, you can use synaptic and view the history to see what you have installed by date but not sure of a way to list it as a text file | 12:26 |
| Prentice | hey, I'm having problems with my memory stick it was loading fine but I clicked unmount and now I can't see it | 12:27 |

| ltcabral | hey im trying to build an rpm in ubuntu but the following line is giving me problems: install -dv rpm/{BUILD,RPMS/noarch,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS} it creates a dir '{BUILD,RPMS' and a file 'SOURCES' instead... how can i fix that? | 12:27 |
| CoUrPsE | How can i debug why an application is not booting? | 12:27 |
| grawity | CoUrPsE: Is it a GUI application? | 12:28 |
| CoUrPsE | Nope, mysqld. | 12:28 |
| Halitech | CoUrPsE, start it from the terminal and see what error messages it gives | 12:28 |
| Prentice | hey, I'm having problems with my memory stick it was loading fine but I clicked unmount and now I can't see it | 12:28 |
| Prentice | Halitech: #terminal | 12:28 |
| grawity | CoUrPsE: Check syslog (/var/log/syslog) | 12:28 |
| CoUrPsE | it says, Starting mysql database server mysqld [fail] | 12:28 |

| Shockrates_ | hi | 12:30 |
| Shockrates_ | does anyone know which browser is faster for linux? arora, firefox or opera | 12:30 |
| psypher12 | Could someone check to see if they can view my web server from their side? | 12:30 |
| leeping | Hey there, I have a directory which contains more than 1,000,000 files that were erroneously generated overnight -- now I'm having a lot of trouble deleting this directory, "rm" has been running for about 10 minutes with no freeing up of space. After you're all done laughing, please let me know if there's a faster way to delete this folder. :) Thanks | 12:30 |
| ltspadmin | how to creat an user | 12:30 |
| psypher12 | Could someone check to see if they can view my web server from their side? | 12:30 |
| vge | Prentice: is it lsited in the "mount" list? | 12:30 |
| grawity | CoUrPsE: Some daemons can be started directly (/usr/bin/mysqld), without an initscript. Try mysqld --help, check if it has a 'verbose' option. Of course, you'll need to try it as mysqld's user (sudo -u mysql -i) | 12:30 |
| leeping | never mind - "rm" just finished =P | 12:30 |
| ltspadmin | how to creat an user in ltsp | 12:30 |
| Prentice | vge: no | 12:30 |
| leeping | The answer would be good for future reference though | 12:30 |

| vge | Halitech: addy? | 12:31 |
| Halitech | vge, sorry, eyes aren't working, that was for psypher12 | 12:31 |
| psypher12 | Here is the url : http://novasphere.no-ip.biz:8080/ | 12:31 |
| grawity | leeping: There's a limit on how fast can disks spin... 'rm' must remove each and every file entry from the directory. Which obviously takes time. | 12:31 |
| grawity | psypher12: "Xenon Server Online!" | 12:31 |
| vge | Prentice: have your tried reentering it? | 12:31 |
| Varan | Halitech: Thanks thats very usefull | 12:31 |
| leeping | grawity, so you're saying there's no faster way than "rm"? | 12:31 |
| darkpeter | hi | 12:31 |
| Prentice | vge: what do you mean by that? | 12:32 |
| psypher12 | let me know if its visible. and how fast its able to render the page | 12:32 |

| vge | Prentice: remove it and put it back in? :) | 12:32 |
| Halitech | Varan, not the option you were looking for I know but at least you can view it ... might be a log file in /var/log you can look at as well | 12:32 |
| Varan | Would be nice to have an app that shoulds the roots of the dependency tree | 12:32 |

| tj83__ | is there a ubuntu server channel? | 12:32 |
| Varan | hmm owke | 12:32 |
| vge | Prentice: if it's not listed then it's not mounted and you can take it out | 12:33 |
| Varan | s/shoulds/shows/ | 12:33 |
| Prentice | vge: ye loads of times | 12:33 |
| sipior | tj83__: #ubuntu-server, iirc, but you can ask questions here as well | 12:33 |
| grawity | psypher12: It works, it's quite fast, but the page is _really_ far away from being valid HTML... | 12:33 |
| indus | Ozzy: which cd is this? 9.04? | 12:33 |
| Prentice | vge: I've taken it out but it doesn't show when I plug it back in | 12:33 |
| psypher12 | I dont care if its valid lol | 12:33 |
| Halitech | Varan, /var/log/apt/term.log | 12:33 |
| ltcabral | hey im trying to build an rpm in ubuntu but the following line is giving me problems: install -dv rpm/{BUILD,RPMS/noarch,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS} it creates a dir '{BUILD,RPMS' and a file 'SOURCES' instead... how can i fix that? | 12:33 |
| grawity | psypher12: Well, some do. Many browsers do too. | 12:33 |
| psypher12 | I just want to validate if the server is online and responding well as I am hosting from home | 12:33 |

| darkpeter | anyone know how to force a screen resolution in 9.10 ?? i've create a xorg.conf but the system does not take this one | 12:34 |
| psypher12 | Thanks for checking anyways! | 12:34 |
| Pici | darkpeter: 9.10 is not supported in this channel until it is released, please continue to use #ubuntu+1 until that time. | 12:34 |
| darkpeter | kk sorry ! | 12:34 |
| psypher12 | Where are you located ( geographically) grawity? | 12:34 |
| Prentice | vge: I've taken it out and back in again | 12:35 |
| Halitech | Varan, looks like its a log file of the actual install process so may not be much help to you | 12:35 |
| psypher12 | Just wanting to assess the response time from your location | 12:35 |
| sipior | tj83__: been a while since i've used virtualisation under ubuntu server. try asking the channel at large for a proper picture. | 12:35 |

| vge | Prentice: donno if i can help you further, if it don't show up in mount list it's not automounting which is not right :/ | 12:36 |
| sipior | tj83__: it is certainly possible without the gui, however :-) (otherwise it would be pretty much useless) | 12:37 |
| iceroot | ltspadmin: useradd username | 12:37 |
| vge | Prentice: which you already knew :/ | 12:37 |
| tj83__ | Totenkopf, what is the exact vmware product you use? vmware-server? your doing in a client/server fashion? My goal is to run multiple CLI servers for the purpose of learning. | 12:37 |
| ltspadmin | but from gnome | 12:37 |

| dhiaeldeen | how can i make ubuntu run most of the videos , i want codecs ... | 12:37 |
| lulika | I am trying to upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04 (server). sudo do-release-upgrade says "No new release found". Also, by using "update-manager -d" only gives me the option to update to 8.10. Please help :) | 12:37 |

| Halitech | Prentice, I had some issues the other day that were similiar to what you are describing, from what I gathered hald was acting up but restarting just hald didn nothing, rebooted and everything was fine again | 12:38 |
| iceroot | lulika: you have to go through all releases | 12:38 |
| bob1 | dhiaeldeen just use synaptic | 12:38 |
| lulika | iceroot: oh, okay | 12:38 |
| iceroot | lulika: or wait until 10.04 which is also an LTS and can be upgraded directly | 12:38 |
| ltspadmin | yes but when i click..it should ask a password ..but i didnt get it.. | 12:38 |
| bob1 | dhiaeldeen or auto codec search | 12:38 |
| iceroot | !who | ltspadmin | 12:38 |
| indus | i dont understand why people still have issues with codecs.Didnt hardy make playing all formats auto | 12:38 |

| iceroot | indus: not for all | 12:39 |
| dhiaeldeen | i can't find it. | 12:39 |
| tj83__ | Totenkopf, ah, i see, I was a bit confused, with normal desktop virtualization the environment is delivered there on the host machine. I was trying to make sense of how it was to be delivered , and vmware server seemed like the only possible solution. If someone were to just use basic virtual box or someting it wouldnt work as there was not xserver right? | 12:39 |

| Totenkopf | tj83__: No, virtualbox also now includes tools for use on a headless server | 12:40 |
| bob1 | hdhiaeldeen try using a terminal | 12:40 |
| zvacet | lulika: if you have separate home partition just install new version on top of old one to create separate home see http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 12:40 |
| iceroot | lulika: for what? | 12:40 |
| darkpeter | anyone can help me ?? | 12:40 |
| iceroot | lulika: ah for the upgrades? yes | 12:40 |
| lulika | iceroot: between 8.10 and 9.04 | 12:40 |
| lulika | ok | 12:40 |
| iceroot | !ask | darkpeter | 12:40 |

| DexterLB | I want to make S-Video work. I have an ATI Radeon 9600xt. I need the fglrx driver. But if I install it X doesn't start | 12:41 |
| iceroot | lulika: there a not few moments you have to reboot but a kernel-upgrade is one reason | 12:41 |
| dhiaeldeen | terminal = sudo apt-get install vlc | 12:41 |
| bob1 | dhiaeldeen: jep | 12:41 |
| dhiaeldeen | gives error | 12:41 |
| tj83__ | Totenkopf, i was not aware of that. I still think vmware-server is probably the best product for me to use. agree? | 12:41 |
| darkpeter | i've got that : resolution max in menu => 1024x768 but my screen can do 1280x1024 | 12:41 |
| dhiaeldeen | jep = ? | 12:41 |
| indus | also hald init stuff etc | 12:41 |
| Totenkopf | tj83__: In that scenario, yes | 12:41 |
| zer0x | darkpeter: did you make that xorg.conf? | 12:41 |
| bob1 | dhiaeldeen: what error ? | 12:41 |
| darkpeter | i've make a xorg.conf but not take in consideration | 12:42 |
| dhiaeldeen | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 12:42 |
| darkpeter | yep Zer0x | 12:42 |
| tj83__ | Totenkopf, sipior thanks for all the help | 12:42 |
| DexterLB | aticonfig says "no suitable adapter found" | 12:42 |
| bob1 | dhiaeldeen: typ sudo apt-get install vlx | 12:42 |
| zvacet | dhiaeldeen: system<admin<software sources and see if youm have all repos open | 12:42 |
| bob1 | dhiaeldeen: vlc | 12:42 |
| zer0x | darkpeter: ok, so now you need to generate a modeline using 'gtf' then insert that into the monitor sections in xorg.conf | 12:42 |
| Halitech | DexterLB, what version of Ubuntu? | 12:42 |
| Dr_Willis | indus: i dont rember. totem tryies to play it.. asks to dowload somthing.. it does. then i get audio but not video,, and then i rember to go install vlc or mplayer and then dump totem - thats How it normally plays out when i do new installs. | 12:42 |
| DexterLB | Jaunty | 12:42 |
| testi_ | MonoDevelop doesn't underline compile errors. How can I achieve that? | 12:43 |
| indus | Dr_Willis: maybe its an old habit, totem is really good at getting codecs | 12:43 |
| foo | Ubuntu server 9.04 seems to be hanging during install with no error. I go to "instal system" and it just hangs there with a blinking cursor, any ideas? Before it threw an error, but I fixed it with noapic. | 12:43 |
| dhiaeldeen | same error | 12:43 |
| DexterLB | I'm now downloading the linux x86 driver for this card from the official ati site | 12:43 |
| DexterLB | to see if it works | 12:43 |
| Dr_Willis | indus: it did it on 9.10 just last week also. | 12:43 |
| indus | Dr_Willis: i think you should file a bug for this or it wont get any better | 12:43 |
| darkpeter | zer0x : i just put gtf in console ? | 12:43 |
| Halitech | DexterLB, 9.04 doesn't support using the ati driver so you only have the option of using the opensource driver which I don't know if it supports using the svideo connection | 12:43 |
| ubuntunewbie2 | Anyone know how to fix font ? I did modified the font to segoe UI fonts , how to reset it to be default arial and Sans using command line ? I am having problem http://img48.imageshack.us/img48/9766/screenshotml0.png PLease help | 12:43 |
| indus | Dr_Willis: could you remember the codec? | 12:44 |
| der_martin | hi folks :) | 12:44 |
| zer0x | darkpeter: yup, e.g. gtf 1280 1024 60 for 1280x1024@60hz | 12:44 |
| DexterLB | no svideo with the opensource driver :( | 12:44 |
| Dr_Willis | indus: nope. I dont even rember which video.. My video come from a varity of sources and could be most anything. :) | 12:44 |
| indus | Dr_Willis: sometimes totem fails, but on reopening with totem , it does grab it | 12:44 |
| Halitech | DexterLB, DON"T! trying to use the ati driver will break your system | 12:44 |
| DexterLB | ok | 12:44 |
| der_martin | can WICD remember my settings so that it reconnects to a hidden wireless network the next startup ? | 12:44 |
| meowbuntu | anyone here able to help me atm | 12:44 |
| indus | Halitech: why would it break ? | 12:45 |
| DexterLB | will it be supported in karmic? | 12:45 |
| der_martin | it currently doesn't | 12:45 |
| Halitech | DexterLB, ati dropped support for the card and xorg made changes which prevent the card from working | 12:45 |
| darkpeter | zer0x i've got that : # 1280x1024 @ 60.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 63.60 kHz; pclk: 108.88 MHz | 12:45 |

| indus | Halitech: aah ok old card | 12:45 |
| der_martin | runnig WICD 1.6.1 | 12:45 |
| Halitech | indus, it will break x | 12:45 |
| zvacet | Dr_Willis: look in synaptic>file>history to see witch codec you installed | 12:45 |
| DexterLB | only this card? | 12:45 |
| Halitech | DexterLB, maybe, maybe not, depends on how far the devs get with coding a new opensource driver | 12:45 |
| der_martin | googled a lot, but only the same problem, no solutions | 12:45 |
| meowbuntu | i am trying to folow a tutoral it has this line i need do this cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config | 12:46 |
| ubuntunewbie2 | thank you | 12:46 |
| darkpeter | zer0x : where i put that ? | 12:46 |
| Halitech | DexterLB, ati dropped support for any card below the HD series | 12:46 |
| zer0x | darkpeter: ok, copy that, gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find the Monitor Section, and paste those lines just above the EndSection.. also.. | 12:46 |
| DexterLB | omg | 12:46 |
| DexterLB | too bad | 12:46 |
| meowbuntu | anyone able to take a look at the tutoraL HERE http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=34557 | 12:46 |

| theadmin | indus: It has them built-in :/ | 12:46 |
| Pici | indus: vlc includes its own codecs | 12:46 |
| Halitech | indus, vlc has most of them built into the code somehow | 12:46 |
| DexterLB | ok can you recommend an NVidia videocard with a MINI-DIN 9 s-video output which will work with ubuntu? | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | meowbuntu: look in the /boot directory. the config files do not follow that nameing scheme here. | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | mplayer installs a few more too | 12:47 |
| MixMix5 | meowbuntu: type uname -r into a terminal, then replace 'uname -r' in your command with the output | 12:47 |
| zer0x | darkpeter: you will also have to add the alias "1280x1024_60.00" into the Modes line of SubSection Display of Section Screen.. | 12:47 |
| bob1 | Just use exaile thats the best music player:P | 12:47 |
| indus | interesting, like ffmpeg for totem , vlc has their own implementation | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | oh wait uname -r does. :) i was thinking -a heh | 12:47 |
| meowbuntu | thanks | 12:47 |
| darkpeter | zer0x: can you say if my xorg.conf is good ? | 12:47 |
| zer0x | darkpeter: just put it on pastebin for me :D | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | meowbuntu: `command` - in a command line runs a command then inserts the output into the command line. | 12:47 |
| darkpeter | ;) | 12:48 |
| Dr_Willis | meowbuntu: like echo `date` | 12:48 |

| Halitech | DexterLB, personally I've seen that a few times but I think mixing interpid and jaunty repos to change the xorg packages is going to give some stability issues | 12:50 |

| ActionParsnip | vecKt: ok have you tried mkfs.vfat instead of mkdosfs | 13:37 |
| vecKt | ActionParsnip: it was formated in fedora, so it's got the strange lvm on.... but not mounted... | 13:37 |

| DexterLB | right, I held all packages that mustn't upgrade with echo 'pkgname hold' | dpkg --set-selections. | 14:30 |

| satya | ActionParsnip: yes | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | wbc: increase lease, use static ip | 14:33 |
| godfather | sobczyk, any idea about that? | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | satya: and you got some output, you need to copy that text to the pastebin link: http://pastebin.com | 14:33 |

| === gh0zt_afk is now known as gh0zt | ||
| hateball | sccolbert: in the LAN? over internet? etc etc | 15:05 |
| blueglasses | sccolbert, it probably happens because your server is limiting the size of transfered files | 15:05 |
| sccolbert | over the internet | 15:06 |
| sccolbert | blueglasses: going from my desktop to my linode server | 15:06 |

| sccolbert | mgolisch: completely stalls after about 7 megs | 15:06 |
| sccolbert | blueglasses: it stops at a different ammount every time | 15:06 |
| blueglasses | sccolbert, check your ftp configuration file for size (do a search) | 15:07 |
| cognitiaclaeves | nvm. Seems that choosing the option to show the mouse pointer's location when holding pressing ctrl key swallows the key when pressed, interfering with every other use of the key: locking the screen, using the right ctrl for virtual box, and using ctrl-shift combos with VMware ESX within VirtualBox. | 15:07 |

| pawel | why after reboot my shortcutes on deskop are unable to open and additionally i lost all the music library - program needs to search for music again | 15:12 |

| grawity | blueglasses: There is no "sftpd configuration file". | 15:14 |

| grawity | But, FTP uses port 21 for control connection and randomly chosen ports for data connections. | 15:15 |

| hanasaki | what can I check on the running system to make sure it is supposed to support is9660? | 16:30 |
| hanasaki | iso9660 | 16:30 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: try loading the module beforehand | 16:30 |
| hanasaki | erUSUL: its not listed in /proc/filesystems | 16:31 |

| Cobalt | I've got something really really weird going on. You know how, if you're in a Nautilus window, you type a bunch of letters, it'll match you to the nearest file/folder? Well, mine stops doing that after a while. And the only thing that brings it back - and that, only in the respawned window - is killing it. Where should I look to fix that? | 16:32 |

| erUSUL | hanasaki: are you suing stock ubuntu kernel in the vbox ? | 16:33 |
| hanasaki | yes | 16:33 |
| sartan | erUSUL: looks like you're trying to add a directly connected route. | 16:34 |
| evilx_ | i got it | 16:34 |
| Pici | Shockrates: I'm not sure what you mean, apt-get autoremove doesnt take any arguments. | 16:34 |
| erUSUL | sartan: not me evilx_ is | 16:34 |

| sartan | erUSUL: evil irssi tab completion | 16:34 |
| evilx_ | i got it | 16:34 |
| Shockrates | Pici: there is a command autoremove | 16:34 |
| jnsmith | exit | 16:34 |
| Shockrates | konsole spit it out | 16:34 |
| Shockrates | in kubuntu | 16:34 |

| cristi_ | is there a way to save my current xorg configuration to xorg.conf? booting jaunty on my inspiron 700m single-headed, i can't ever get a dual-head setup, but booting with both screens attached, it configures itself fantastically. now i just need to store the current configuration.. | 16:35 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: run this « find /lib/modules/ -name '*iso*' && grep ISO96 /boot/config* » on the guest | 16:36 |
| Pici | Shockrates: If you remove a package it will prompt you to remove the packages that depend on it. | 16:36 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: looks like a very weird omission | 16:36 |
| en0x | hi | 16:36 |
| Shockrates | Pici: it told me if you want to remove the depedancies, use the autoremove command | 16:36 |
| Shockrates | i dont know | 16:36 |
| en0x | is there a way to change the notification in gnome? | 16:36 |
| en0x | http://blogs.gnome.org/rodrigo/files/2005/07/trash-notification.png | 16:36 |
| en0x | the one on the bottom right | 16:36 |
| Pici | Shockrates: Then don't run it. | 16:36 |
| Shockrates | Pici: lets say i removed the dependancies already, cause it told me they are not needed | 16:37 |
| * mneptok whispers "dependencies" | 16:37 | |
| Shockrates | Pici: will those libs be needed by another program? | 16:37 |
| hanasaki | erUSUL: says "config_iso9660_fs=am | 16:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | en0x, that looks like a very old screenshot to me | 16:37 |
| hanasaki | =m | 16:38 |
| en0x | ZykoticK9: it doesnt matter i just weant to know where to change that notification i want to move it from bottom right to upper right | 16:38 |
| quikone | could someone tell me where to ask server/networking questions? | 16:38 |
| Pici | Shockrates: No. Because those libraries would be dependencies of that other program and thus wouldn't be listed as not being needed. | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: then the support should be there.... | 16:38 |
| hanasaki | as isofs ? | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | quikone: #ubuntu-server #networking ? | 16:39 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: yes « find /lib/modules/ -name '*iso*' » does not give any result ? | 16:39 |
| Shockrates | Pici: exactly. if we suppose that the konsole works correctly. lol | 16:39 |
| Shockrates | Pici: and in the future when i install a program it will get this dependency if needed | 16:39 |
| Pici | Shockrates: Thats how dependencies work :) | 16:40 |
| hanasaki | erUSUL: nothing. where would it be in modconf? maybe I can find it there? | 16:40 |
| Shockrates | Pici: so does the konsole run a check if a dependency is shared and used by others? | 16:40 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: no modules are in /lib/modules/ allways | 16:40 |
| exoo | Hello | 16:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | en0x, if you move the trash applet to the top right does the notification move with it? | 16:40 |
| Pici | Shockrates: Not konsole, thats how apt and dpkg work. | 16:40 |
| hanasaki | erUSUL: why? | 16:40 |
| Shockrates | ooooh | 16:41 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: the same reason binaries are in /bin/ and libs in /lib/ | 16:41 |
| exoo | Is here someone who has Ubuntu on a Samsung N140 Netbook? | 16:41 |
| hanasaki | ah | 16:41 |
| Shockrates | Pici: i think the remove command only removes 1 thing but the autoremove the not needed dependancies too | 16:41 |
| om26er | exoo, do you have any problem | 16:41 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: you have to choose a place and stick to it | 16:41 |
| m3onh0x84_ | hi every body, how to save opendns in /etc/resolv.conf in ubuntu 9.10 | 16:42 |
| hanasaki | erUSUL: so it says the iso9660 is a module yet modprobe isofs says not found.. could it be a diff name? | 16:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | Shockrates, autoremove will remove dependencies that where installed on your system and are no longer required -- that's what autoremove does... | 16:42 |
| exoo | om26er, only some questions, for example, with the accu runtime, when I use Ubuntu | 16:42 |
| m3onh0x84_ | I can't save open dns | 16:42 |
| erUSUL | hanasaki: not likely. | 16:42 |
| Shockrates | ZykoticK9: so plain remove only removes 1 thing and not the dependancies | 16:42 |
| exoo | Or if I can use the special Keys? | 16:42 |

| ZykoticK9 | Sander, you don't directly install DirectX in wine -- you can use DLL overrides if necessary to trick games into thinking you have a particular DirectX version installed (ie have gotten DirectX 10 games to work with this method) - best of luck. | 16:59 |

| blck | i think then i will wait and find some time to install :) | 17:14 |

| ZykoticK9 | indian_munnda, "head -n5 FILENAME" | 17:14 |
| j2daosh | you could go into the file and modify the dependency it is looking for, but that sounds alittle out of your league | 17:14 |
| stephenw | The problem is the current version of php5-common is different from the one required by php5-ldap | 17:14 |
| j2daosh | so just go to the php website and download the offical version for debian(or ubuntu if listed) and install that way | 17:15 |
| stephenw | j2daosh: where does apt store its dependency information? | 17:15 |

| grawity | queso_: Check Tools -> Plugins. | 17:15 |
| stephenw | j2daosh: i don't want to install from source, because the point of running ubuntu for me is I don't have to do crap like this. | 17:15 |
| j2daosh | during the make, there is lines in there saying "if $depends == 'blah blah' do so and so | 17:16 |

| rlo | Hi. Is there any way to see the underlying Linux commands that Gnome runs? Example: when I attach a thumb drive to the USB port, Gnome clearly runs "mount" - but it seems to be running other commands as well, and I'd like to know what it's doing. Is there a particular log file to inspect? A command that would show this? Thanks! | 17:17 |
| stephenw | rlo: you can run it through strace or truss or something, or just look at the source. | 17:17 |
| LjL | stephenw: then you probably should remove the lines pertaining to intrepid repositories from your sources.list | 17:17 |
| Ravi- | How do I ignore all these joins and quits in the #? | 17:17 |
| stephenw | LjL: those are only for chromium-browser packages | 17:18 |

| stephenw | Safe: as in, you want to be prompted to type a particular filename? | 17:20 |

| diana | hi | 18:22 |
| Plugh | I've been running Fedora since around 4.2 but I had some issues with Fedora 11 when I installed it on my new laptop. I had a problem with sound (which I was able to mostly fix), couldn't get drivers installed for WiFi or for accelerated video. I've used Ubuntu as a secondary distro on occasion in the past and thought it was time to have another look at Ubuntu. | 18:22 |
| LiteHedded | how do I uninstall an old kernel? | 18:22 |
| spaceBARbarian | LjL, well the point of boot-time tools is to be able to test hardware when stuff doesnt boot properly :P | 18:22 |
| sipior | shavinder: actually, that wikipedia page has the information you require. | 18:22 |
| shavinder | erUSUL: is there a danger of file system corruption by doing that? | 18:22 |
| LjL | spaceBARbarian: well, you can run smartmontools (or any other relevant package) from a live cd. | 18:22 |
| sipior | shavinder: especially the "Raising Elephants mnemonic device" bit | 18:23 |
| shavinder | sipior: okay thanks i shall read that up | 18:23 |

| Decessus | anyone know where I can get a decently cheap touchscreen that will work with ubuntu? | 18:23 |
| Plugh | I installed Ubuntu 9.10 beta and was just blown away by it. Sound was working on it right out of the box. It asked med about installing propietary drivers for both WiFi and video card. I copied over the WiFi firmware from my earlier attempts to get WiFi going. Next thing I knew, everything was up and running. Even the special buttons on the laptop to control sound and enable/disable WiFi were all working. | 18:23 |
| nightshade | crap | 18:23 |

| jrib | shavinder: google "custom bash prompt" I guess | 18:31 |

| shavinder | jrib: what i mean to ask is, does the dollor prompt run the commands same as the main user one? | 18:31 |
| new88 | I used system administration to remove users from my installation but their names still show up in the login / logout menu. How do I remove the names? | 18:31 |

| macmouse | Question - Is there a command to list what tc rules are in play? | 18:32 |
| spaceBARbarian | is there a way to create an entry for windows in grub that takes you to the safe-mode options ? | 18:32 |
| jrib | shavinder: (my guess is you created the new user with useradd instead of adduser, so you don't have a ~/.bashrc). The "dollar prompt" doesn't run any commands. Your shell does (probably bash). Your users just have different shell prompts | 18:32 |

| erUSUL | frindly: the driver for the usb stick does not play well with hibernation. take a look at /etc/default/acpi-support the MODULES variable | 18:32 |
| macmouse | spaceBARbarian: I don't think so (or automaticly)... you can still manually press f8 as the computer is turning on though | 18:32 |
| Pici | nightshade: Please /msg ubottu if you're just looking for things for yourself | 18:32 |

| xpololz | hey! im pretty new to ubuntu, ive installed the recommended nvidia drivers (NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (180)) but it seems its still very slow at rendering 2d graphics. Can anyone help me with this please? | 18:33 |
| Plugh | LjL: Just felt the need to share as I'm a happy camper re: Ubuntu. Looking at the channel list, I see there is quite a few channels for ubuntu including #ubuntu-devel. I have one issue re: the beta so I'll go over there to see how easily the issue can be fixed (and possibly in time for the official release) | 18:33 |
| shavinder | jrib: yes I creared users with useradd and not with adduser, so you are right, i need to get bash to the user prompt. | 18:33 |
| macmouse | xpololz: are you using the open source driver, or the proprietary driver? | 18:33 |
| jrib | Plugh: #ubuntu+1 for that not -dev | 18:33 |
| jrib | shavinder: you should use "adduser", it will copy over the files in /etc/skel/ (which gives you a nice ~/.bashrc) | 18:34 |
| jrib | shavinder: not to mention it's a lot easier to use... | 18:34 |
| nightshade | msg-ing isnt giving me anything | 18:34 |

| Pici | nightshade: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots lists the only things that ubottu can do. | 18:37 |
| nightshade | cool | 18:37 |

| OmniCitadel | Bacta: My guess would be that it is the apple / itunes shuffle they have been doing to prevent their hardware and other peoples hardware from working / not working with itunes / other software | 19:06 |
| Antisojahnk | Can somebody help me? I try to install videodrivers for ATI X1200, im typing a code in the terminal of an open driver that should work, but then it comes to a part where it asks if I want to continue [Y/n], I type Y, and then it just says "Aborted" and does nothing... | 19:07 |
| OmniCitadel | no punn intented with the shuffle comment | 19:07 |
| victor__ | this morning I installed something that scrambled my monitor, and I had to do a clean install to correct it | 19:07 |

| Besogon | kane77, Insert pendrive then do "df" You will see your flash drive. Then "dd if=/dev/null of=/media/"Your pendrive"". | 20:32 |
| Xs3s3 | al__, ok, use dd rescue, and then dd the file to the new HD! | 20:32 |
| al__ | Xs3s3: we are talking a NTFS partition | 20:32 |
| Xs3s3 | al__, theirs yer solution | 20:32 |
| rcmaehl | uSbuntu, best portable OS ever! | 20:32 |
| Xs3s3 | al__, dd works with ntfs or no!? i thought so | 20:33 |
| al__ | Xs3s3: hmm, so dd the file to the new disk. Dont need to prep the disk in anyway? | 20:33 |
| Xs3s3 | al__, no, dd copies byte by byte | 20:33 |

| Xs3s3 | al__, but not with ntfs. | 20:34 |
| al__ | the new disk, you dont need to mount or anything, just plug it in and leave as raw | 20:34 |
| Xs3s3 | so make sure it can do ntfs. | 20:34 |

| Safe | (don't know which /dev/** it is) | 20:36 |
| Xs3s3 | al__, use that in a seperate terminal after you run the dd command, then look at the dd window. it will update every 5 seconds. | 20:36 |
| Xs3s3 | al__, might need sudo, try without first. | 20:36 |

| Dream-Ubu | is there a tool for writing an iso directly to a harddrive without needing to use unetbootin? | 21:46 |
| Hans_Henrik | nentis: try sudo update-manager -d instead :p | 21:46 |

| koshari | Dream-Ubu you can use the ubuntu inbuilt tool to copy the iso to a usb device to boot from it and install, you dont need unetbootin | 21:49 |

| pm2 | erUSUL, yeah, I think it can do the 386 part. I'm worried about "just trying" as if it doesn't work I could potentially destroy some pretty expensive hardware, so I'd like to try to confirm that it at least works "in theory" first | 22:44 |
| sdwrage | How do I search for my video drivers via terminal? | 22:45 |
| erUSUL | pm2: "pretty expensive hardware" the one attached to the serial port? | 22:45 |
| pm2 | erUSUL, correct | 22:45 |
| Slart | sdwrage: apt-cache search ? | 22:45 |
| alejandro | somebody have the vmware for ubuntu | 22:45 |
| matrix | hi i have a 2gb .iso file can i split it so it will be 1gb.iso | 22:45 |
| Slart | sdwrage: or you mean "search for what graphics card I have" ? | 22:45 |
| Slart | !vm | alejandro | 22:45 |
| ubottu | alejandro: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 22:45 |
| erUSUL | !vmware | alejandro | 22:45 |
| ubottu | alejandro: VMWare is not available in the Ubuntu repositories. Consider using !QEmu or !VirtualBox as alternatives. Instructions for installing VMWare manually are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware | 22:45 |
| erUSUL | pm2: and the software does not run without the machine attached ? | 22:46 |
| sdwrage | Slart, second one | 22:46 |
| tonystark | hello ppl | 22:46 |
| herrakiddi | hi i need help i was installing ubuntu and i got error boot cd, the cd is good from the factory and working on another pc | 22:47 |
| matrix | hi i have a 2gb .iso file can i split it so it will be 1gb.iso | 22:47 |
| losha | pm2: I'm not sure I'd risk it. 386 machines cost nothing these days.... | 22:47 |
| pm2 | erUSUL, the software runs - I have it running in dosbox now - the potential problem is when it starts talking over the serial port. | 22:47 |
| tonystark | hey what is kerenel panic error | 22:47 |
| pm2 | losha, true... just have to find one... | 22:47 |
| * genii starts up WFW 3.11 in dosemu | 22:48 | |
| Slart | sdwrage: lshw will list the hardware in your computer.. there are some commands to narrow it down to certain classes of hardware.. ie graphics, sound, networking and so on.. check the man page for specifics | 22:48 |
| losha | pm2: ebay. Or a local recycler... | 22:48 |
| tonystark | hey what is kernel panic error | 22:48 |
| mfreenet | any idea or advice? | 22:48 |
| pm2 | losha, yeah, i'll look around | 22:48 |
| genii | tonystark: Terminal | 22:48 |
| sdwrage | thx | 22:48 |
| herrakiddi | hi i need help i was installing ubuntu and i got error boot cd, the cd is good from the factory and working on another pc | 22:48 |
| LjL | tonystark: it's when an error occurs inside linux itself, leading to a system crash | 22:48 |
| tonystark | well i try to boot ubuntu | 22:49 |
| new-toon | hi anyone know if ext4 is now stable | 22:49 |
| tonystark | its says that error | 22:49 |
| maco | new-toon: in 9.10 it will be | 22:49 |
| Spoom | hi folks, i'm trying to setup my motorola h550 bluetooth headset with ubuntu, and from my research i've seen that it's quite the feat; nobody's been able to do it thusfar; i've tried everything in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothHeadset but get stopped by "Failure: Module initalization failed" on the first pactl line; any ideas? | 22:49 |
| maco | new-toon: it was declared stable in 9.04 but there were a few remaining issues | 22:49 |
| Slart | tonystark: when something goes so bad that the kernel can't continue working or something like that | 22:49 |
| genii | tonystark: kernel panic is Linux's equivelent of Window's "Blue Screen of Death" | 22:49 |
| erUSUL | pm2: well i can not help further... | 22:49 |
| tonystark | oh | 22:49 |
| Bwyard | it worked | 22:49 |
| tonystark | thx alot u guys | 22:49 |
| losha | maco: 9.04 was released by a bunch of optimists in the manic phase of their disorder... | 22:50 |
| Spoom | i know that my bluetooth stack is working correctly as i've used it successfully with my phone; i'm running ubuntu 8.04, and if you have suggestions for newer drivers to try, i'll do that too | 22:50 |
| maco | losha: *rolls eyes* thanks | 22:51 |
| Spoom | err, 9.04 rather | 22:51 |
| Spoom | i think the problem is that the device goes into a sort of "standby" mode in which the bluetooth stack of my computer thinks it's just disconnected | 22:52 |
| herrakiddi | hi i need help i was installing ubuntu and i got error boot cd, the cd is good from the factory and working on another pc | 22:52 |
| Spoom | if i could find a way to get it to maintain the connection i think it would work | 22:52 |
| DaRkEyE | So What are people thinking about 9.10? | 22:53 |
| erUSUL | !karmic | DaRkEyE | 22:53 |
| losha | herrakiddi: then maybe it's the cd reader? Can you boot a windows cd in it just to verify? | 22:53 |

| m4rk | what do you guys make of this crunchbang linux? | 22:56 |
| Trunkz | Is it possible to do a text-based install from the live cd? (without having to dl the alternative install image) | 22:56 |
| sdwrage | how would i search for the "ATI Catalyst Control Center" application via terminal? | 22:57 |
| erUSUL | Trunkz: no | 22:57 |
| Trunkz | dang. lol | 22:57 |
| Spoom | hi folks, i'm trying to setup my motorola h550 bluetooth headset with ubuntu, and from my research i've seen that it's quite the feat; nobody's been able to do it thusfar; i've tried everything in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothHeadset but get stopped by "Failure: Module initalization failed" on the first pactl line; any ideas? | 22:57 |

| Spoom | i know that my bluetooth stack is working correctly as i've used it successfully with my phone; i'm running ubuntu 9.04, and if you have suggestions for newer drivers to try, i'll do that too | 22:57 |
| Trunkz | i just cant install ubuntu on vm =/ | 22:57 |
| Spoom | i think the problem is that the device goes into a sort of "standby" mode in which the bluetooth stack of my computer thinks it's just disconnected | 22:57 |
| Trunkz | its spitting out errors. | 22:57 |
| Spoom | if i could find a way to get it to maintain the connection i think it would work | 22:57 |
| roods | hi, i recently installed ubuntu side-by-side with vista and I ran out of space. how does side-by-side work? are windows and ubuntu on the same partition? | 22:57 |
| erUSUL | roods: probably in different paritions... | 22:58 |
| koshari | anyone installed amarok14 (1.4) in 9.10? | 22:58 |
| xrandr | roods: no, it can't be. Windows does not understand ext3 or ext4 | 22:58 |
| erUSUL | roods: you did not used wubi; did you? | 22:58 |
| Spoom | roods, no, ubuntu generally resizes the windows partition using gparted and then installs into a new partition in the freed up space | 22:58 |
| roods | what should i do if i need to enlarge the partition? | 22:58 |
| m4rk | losha: yeah but they will be biased | 22:58 |
| xrandr | roods: which partition? windows or linux? | 22:58 |
| Spoom | sudo apt-get install gparted but be very, very careful | 22:58 |
| koshari | roods which one? | 22:59 |
| Slart | koshari: ask in #ubuntu+1 that's the karmic support channel | 22:59 |
| erUSUL | roods: boot up in a livecd and use gparted to make more room. how dpends on the current layout of your parition on disk | 22:59 |
| koshari | Slart for 2 more days it is | 22:59 |
| erUSUL | roods: and be very carefull as Spoom says | 22:59 |
| Slart | koshari: indeed | 22:59 |
| jackbeslow | So I have a desktop running an older version of ubuntu and I want to install the newest version on a portable HD, Is there anyway I can do this easily without burning a CD and restarting the computer? I haven't turned this beast off in years. | 22:59 |
| gasbag | how do i find out which version of certain packages is being released under ubuntu 9.10? | 22:59 |
| losha | Trunkz: ok, I'll bite. Which host os, which VM and which guest os version? And most important, what error message? We're not psychic you know... | 23:00 |
| sdwrage | how would i search for the "ATI Catalyst Control Center" application via terminal? | 23:00 |
| roods | thanks guys. | 23:00 |
| roods | hopefully you'll see me later :P | 23:00 |
| koshari | gasbag apt? | 23:00 |
| roods | do i need to boot to the live cd? | 23:00 |
| Slart | gasbag: you might be able to check packages.ubuntu.com .. not sure if it's got karmic yet though | 23:00 |
| losha | m4rk: well, we don't allow polls on here, so I guess you'll have to google for opinions... | 23:00 |
| gasbag | koshari: i haven't installed it yet | 23:00 |
| Bwyard | how do i eject a cd in xubuntu | 23:00 |
| Bwyard | it wont let me | 23:00 |
| roods | or only if i don't have enough room to install gparted | 23:00 |
| Slart | Bwyard: there is an eject command | 23:00 |
| erUSUL | roods: yes; mounted paritions can not be edited | 23:00 |
| gasbag | koshari: anything on the web page? | 23:00 |
| roods | thanks again. | 23:00 |
| dtrask | Hey all....I need help....this is related to ubuntu as it is for Open1to1.org and the image that I create for school netbooks.... | 23:01 |
| koshari | gasbag all the packages are available from ubuntu packages, | 23:01 |
| dtrask | I have had schools complaining that students are creating "ad hoc" networks via network-manager and thus wreaking havoc on the school wireless network | 23:01 |
| sdwrage | I have "ATI Catalyst Control Center" still in my menu... I dont know where it is to uninstall it :\ | 23:01 |
| Slart | Bwyard: it has some switches you can use to force it too.. but before you do that you might want to check using "lsof" if anything is using a file on the cd | 23:01 |
| dtrask | does anyone know of a way (clean or hack...I'm desperate here) of disabling the ability to create...and/or connect to an ad-hoc wireless network? | 23:01 |
| herrakiddi | losha: in the installion menu corner it appears numbers when the error appears 3242009f | 23:01 |

| Bohemian | how do i mount a drive while using a livecd? | 23:01 |
| TheBrian | is there any way I can force a generic ide driver to load? I can't seem to figure out if ide_generic is still valid with 9.04 or not | 23:02 |
| gasbag | koshari: yes tnx! | 23:02 |
| bastidrazor | sdwrage: fglrx-amdcccle is the package that has the catalyst control for ATI | 23:02 |
| jackbeslow | Bohemian, The same way you mount one normally | 23:02 |
| Bohemian | jackbeslow: mount /dev/sda3 /mount ? | 23:02 |
| matrix | hey i installed p7zip how do i start it | 23:02 |
| erUSUL | Bohemian: sudo mount -t auto /dev/sdxx /mount/point/of/choice | 23:02 |
| Bohemian | as sudo | 23:02 |
| Slart | Bohemian: use the mount command.. or find it in nautilus and open it.. it might be automatically mounted | 23:02 |
| Bohemian | does it matter where i mount it? | 23:02 |
| gasbag | Slart: tnx! | 23:02 |
| dtrask | does anyone know of a way (clean or hack...I'm desperate here) of disabling the ability to create...and/or connect to an ad-hoc wireless network? | 23:02 |
| erUSUL | Bohemian: it has to be an empty folder already existing | 23:02 |
| jackbeslow | Bohemian, sure, I would give it a folder in mount though... | 23:03 |
| m4rk | losha, thanks for your help | 23:03 |
| Slart | gasbag: ehm.. you're welcome.... but.. what did I do? | 23:03 |
| Slart | gasbag: ahh.. nevermind.. now I remember.. I need more coffee | 23:03 |
| sdwrage | actually... I think I installed it from the ati website bastidrazor | 23:03 |
| mikobuntu | sdwrage : try command "whereis" or "locate" | 23:03 |
| sdwrage | thx | 23:03 |
| Bohemian | it's telling me to specify the filesystem type | 23:03 |
| Bohemian | ? | 23:03 |
| administrator__ | hello | 23:04 |
| bastidrazor | sdwrage: then that is how you need to find it uninstall it. their website should have uninstall instructions | 23:04 |
| gasbag | Slart: :-) | 23:04 |
| sdwrage | ah ok | 23:04 |
| losha | herrakiddi: I see google entries that talk about that error code. They seem to suggest the CD is bad. Weird, since I though you said it worked on another machine... | 23:04 |
| pat_the_pat | Hi, I'm trying to copy the last 2000 lines of a log file to a new file, I'm pretty sure I have to use a combination of grep and tail but don't really know how... | 23:04 |

| mfreenet | hi, please help i cant get my logitech clear chat pro wireless working :( the funny thing is that i used before with creating .asound.rc and force reload alsa stuff but now it didnt want to work.... :( can som program do things like in windows?

| losha | m4rk: such as it was, you're welcome... | 23:05 |
| sartan | How embarassing~ i wanted to use vboxmanage to do some stuff, so ubuntu told me to install virtualbox-ose~ upon doing so virtualbox-3.0 was pretty much trashed. Removing both packages and apt-get autoremove still leave me with a virtualbox-sized hole in my desktop. | 23:06 |

| Guest28023 | Yeah ok, so I tried the dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-org The problem is... X is crashing. However, if I put in an Ubuntu CD, I have no problems getting X going. How can I completely remove X and then re-install it from apt? | 23:14 |
| bastidrazor | Bohemian: that means leave unallocated space. | 23:14 |

| jackbeslow | 256 is certainly on the low end. | 23:16 |
| sun` | i have been asking this question from last 3 days. | 23:16 |
| Guest28023 | LjL: the problem though is.... how can I remove X and re-install it from apt? I've tried doing: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-org to no avail. | 23:16 |
| Bohemian | for the ext3 partition do i pick logical or primary type for new partition? | 23:16 |
| Slart | Puppy_fam: have a look at xmodmap ... read the man page though | 23:16 |
| LjL | sun`: those errors are often indicative of hardware failure. can you be a bit more specific though? | 23:16 |

| ozzy | Puppy_fam: type "man xmobmap" into a terminal | 23:18 |
| Mka | Hi everyone. Is Nero Linux the real deal? | 23:18 |
| rimmey | yep | 23:18 |
| Guest28023 | LjL: X locks up on boot. If I boot CD, no problem. Hence, I think X software is confuzzled somehow. I believe removing X and re-installing it should work. dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-org didn't help | 23:18 |
| Slart | Puppy_fam: it's a utility to change keyboard mappings.. you run it in a terminal.. you can move keys around and such | 23:18 |
| ozzy | Puppy_fam: type "man xmodmap" into a terminal | 23:18 |
| LjL | jackbeslow: um, you could use a virtual machine, i suppose | 23:18 |
| Puppy_fam | ozzy: thanks! | 23:18 |
| Slart | Mka: "Nero Linux"? | 23:18 |
| joaopinto | Mka, there are plenty of open source burners, no need for a closed source one | 23:18 |
| Puppy_fam | Slart: Thanks! | 23:18 |
| ozzy | np | 23:18 |
| LjL | Guest28023: i doubt it will work. removing and reinstalling won't remove any configuration files | 23:18 |
| bastidrazor | Bohemian: the proper way to do dualboot is to install windows first. but anyway. if no other partitions are on the drive it would be primary | 23:18 |
| jackbeslow | LjL, I am more than likely missing something but how would that help? | 23:19 |
| LjL | Guest28023: anyway, "sudo apt-get --reinstal install xorg" will reinstall part of it. but i really don't think that would help | 23:19 |
| Loki | Howdy. I have a Creative Cam Video IM Pro (VF0230) and I am trying to get it to work with my Install of Ububutu Linux 9.04. I looked on the Creative OS website and it says pending, anyone have any ideas? | 23:19 |
| Guest28023 | LjL: heh.... the Ubuntu 8.10 CD works just fine with X meaning the video card isn't horked.... sooo it must be some odd config somewhay | 23:19 |
| Slart | Mka: you mean the cd/dvd burning app? | 23:19 |
| Mka | Slart: yes | 23:19 |
| Guest28023 | LjL: thanks bud! | 23:19 |
| Slart | Mka: well.. I guess it's real.. not sure if it's worth the money | 23:19 |
| Bohemian | bastidrazor: okay. so i have /dev/sda then /dev/sda1 swap 1998mb and then /dev/sda2 ext3 159998mb and then free space 158073mb | 23:20 |
| Bohemian | is that all i need? | 23:20 |
| LjL | jackbeslow: well, you want to install ubuntu on an external HD, you said, but without rebooting the computer? then don't burn the CD; instal VirtualBox (or another virtual machine) instead, and direct it to use 1) the ISO as its CD drive 2) your external HD as its main drive. boot it, and install. | 23:20 |
| jackbeslow | Darn he left quick, was going to suggest adding --purge as well | 23:20 |
| Mka | Slart: Ok, was just wondering anyway | 23:20 |
| dewman | Slart, Why spend money when the Ubuntu software is open source? | 23:20 |
| jackbeslow | LjL, Nice idea | 23:20 |
| jackbeslow | LjL, thanks | 23:20 |
| bastidrazor | Bohemian: sounds good. | 23:21 |
| Bohemian | thx | 23:21 |
| Bohemian | bastidrazor: i tried to go forward | 23:21 |
| LjL | jakeriver: the only problem might be that your ubuntu will install thinking its hardware is different from what it's actually going to be. but i doubt that'll be a real problem (it'd be very real with Windows), since ubuntu is not picky about changing hardware | 23:21 |
| Bohemian | it said no root fs specified | 23:21 |
| LjL | jackbeslow: ^ | 23:21 |
| Bohemian | what does that mean? and how do i fix it? | 23:21 |

| koshari | Slart planned of coarse , umount dev , scsiadd -remove ect | 23:24 |
| jackbeslow | Slart, Hmm on that point what would be a good format for frequent yank the cord out unmounts? | 23:24 |
| * UnderSampled is still looking for help at finding the correct KDE4 dev libs | 23:24 | |
| Slart | koshari: I think unmounting as such isn't dangerous.. if I understand things correctly it's the unplanned stuff that can be bad.. when the system doesn't get to do a proper sync and unmount | 23:24 |
| Slart | jackbeslow: anything but ext4 =) | 23:24 |
