| bazhang | plustax, if there are new ones then they will upgraded; keep in mind Ubuntu is *not* a rolling releaase distro so newest will not hit repos immediately | 00:28 |
| jason__ | rick__: WICD is an open source linux network manager. A lot of people prefer it to network manager. I for one find its additional options very helpful to use at work (like being able to see each access point individually to test individual access point signal quality, whereas network manager only sees 1 SSID and 1 AP) | 00:28 |

| jason__ | rick__: but anyway, th anks for your help bro. Check out WICD. Its a pretty cool wifi manager for linux. | 00:32 |
| rick__ | jason__: hmmm interesting then, you have an odd problem on your hands, keep on trying to reproduce the problem. | 00:32 |
| jason__ | rick__: prodominently debian based linux's | 00:32 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: the same packages available for the server edition are also available for the desktop edition | 00:32 |
| musictoto | BLOODCLAW: if you want an easy setup of apache, php and other webservices (LAMP) check out http://www.apachefriends.org for the XAMPP package | 00:33 |
| jason__ | rick__: yeah man, I dont know, its stuck at 80% now (which Im in my basement but still somewhat close to the router, so that sounds right) | 00:33 |
| lstarnes | !lamp | BLOODCLAW (this is preferred over XAMPP) | 00:33 |
| ubottu | BLOODCLAW (this is preferred over XAMPP): LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 00:33 |
| BLOODCLAW | lstarnes: then why use ubuntu server | 00:33 |
| shipmaster | is anyone familiar with the quasar accounting app? | 00:33 |
| matx | musictoto: thanks, it was md5 in base64 :D | 00:34 |
| musictoto | lstarnes: true about the ubuntu LAMP :) | 00:34 |

| BLOODCLAW | musictoto: would i still look into apachefriends? | 00:35 |
| Tonren | How can I customize the Wine menu in my Ubuntu Applications menu, such as adding and removing program shortcuts? | 00:35 |
| macman_ | i figured it out mka | 00:35 |
| BLOODCLAW | lstarnes: ahh i see. is ubuntu as good at hosting servers as all those other distros? | 00:35 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: up until recently, I ran an ubuntu system that was used both as a desktop and as a server | 00:35 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: it works well enough as a server | 00:35 |
| musictoto | BLOODCLAW: if you can handle the ubuntu LAMP installation, it's better. apachefriends is to have a quick and easy setup, but less optimized | 00:35 |
| nisstyre65 | make sure you install ssh too | 00:36 |
| BLOODCLAW | musictoto: im utterly at a loss when it comes to python :( | 00:36 |
| BLOODCLAW | musictoto: not python, i mean php! | 00:36 |
| ActionParsnip28 | tonren: look in /home/$USER/.config/menus I think. there are entrys there. you can also run alacarte | 00:36 |

| ssv1994 | I have stripes, when I am playing some flash videos | 00:45 |
| Milos_SD | I need help geting inegrated web cam in Fujitsu Siemens Amilo P series laptop to work on Ubuntu | 00:45 |
| BLOODCLAW | lstarnes: damn... it says i cant host a server | 00:45 |
| ActionParsnip28 | ssv1994: try removing all flash pluigins then install flashplugin-nonfree | 00:45 |
| geirha | ActionParsnip28: and -> or, and >> -> << ;P | 00:45 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: you could try getting a business-grade connection | 00:45 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: or buy a VPS | 00:46 |
| ssv1994 | maybe it is because I have braked the Ethernet cable? | 00:46 |
| ActionParsnip28 | milso_sd: run: lsusb you will get an output with one line identifying the cam. use the hex id in websearches | 00:46 |
| bastid_razor | BLOODCLAW: for residential upload speeds are the major hold ups. | 00:46 |
| ActionParsnip28 | geirha: close eh ;) | 00:47 |
| bastid_razor | BLOODCLAW: you can use dyndns for a domain (free) and they have a dameon that will update your ip if you have dynamic | 00:47 |
| webdawg | can the ubuntu update update the kernel? | 00:48 |
| fossiiil | is it possible that upstart creates some race condition and /etc/rc.firewall gets started two times at ~ same time...thus doubling my iptables rules? | 00:48 |
| lstarnes | webdawg: yes | 00:48 |
| al_ | If you create a backup style image file of say 10 pictures, rysnc it to another location, then add an 11th image to the backup image, and sync again, does it transfer the whole file or just parts of it? | 00:48 |
| ssv1994 | guys, could my problem be, because I've broke the Ethernet cable? | 00:48 |
| ActionParsnip28 | webdawg: absolutely | 00:48 |
| lstarnes | webdawg: but the updates issued for the kernel aren't going to update it to the newest version of the kernel | 00:48 |
| webdawg | After I run the updates and it installs them and askes me to restart. Could I wait and install more utilities? | 00:48 |
| BLOODCLAW | bastid_razor: i just found out i cant host a server on my isp. ty though | 00:48 |
| webdawg | Or do I have to restart? | 00:48 |
| bastid_razor | ssv1994: splicing an ethernet cable is near impossible | 00:48 |
| BLOODCLAW | lstarnes: vps? | 00:48 |
| iceroot | al_: the whole image11 | 00:48 |
| lstarnes | webdawg: they're just going to add bugfixes | 00:48 |

| bastid_razor | BLOODCLAW: neither can i.. but i do anyway. port 80 is blocked so i use a redirect and a nonstandard port. | 00:49 |
| lstarnes | webdawg: you do have to restart to use the new kernel | 00:49 |
| webdawg | Still what happens if it updates gnome or its dependencies while it is running? | 00:49 |
| === Sharker is now known as Guest55987 | ||
| al_ | iceroot: sorry, do you mean it just transfers the part of the backup image that has changed? ie image11? | 00:49 |
| effi | hey guys | 00:49 |
| lstarnes | webdawg: but you can keep using the kernel until you reboot | 00:49 |
| iceroot | al_: correct | 00:49 |
| lstarnes | webdawg: the same goes for gnome | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip28 | bastid_razor: yeah ive done it. you only need 4 of them though ;) | 00:49 |

| iceroot | al_: then of course the compress image will be transfered | 00:50 |
| xdrr | effi: It should be under GDM settings in Administration | 00:50 |

| BLOODCLAW | lstarnes, bastid_razor: is there a way to host my server without verizon finding out | 00:50 |
| ssv1994 | no | 00:50 |
| nisstyre65 | okay | 00:51 |
| nisstyre65 | just making sure | 00:51 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: they likely won't find out, but I've heard that they block many ports to keep them from working | 00:51 |
| nisstyre65 | your ethernet cable won't affect flash | 00:51 |
| bastid_razor | BLOODCLAW: just as i stated. | 00:51 |
| al_ | iceroot: i might do a little test, shouldnt be hard | 00:51 |
| musictoto | iceroot: i think rsync only transfers what you changed to a file | 00:51 |
| effi | Thanks guys! | 00:51 |
| effi | ActionParsnip28: so basically it means i cannot adjust at all the login screen? | 00:52 |
| iceroot | musictoto: hm per default its saying copying file (not diff) | 00:52 |
| iceroot | al_: yes and/or read the manpage | 00:52 |
| BLOODCLAW | bastid_razor: by nonstandard port you are referring to a port not commonly used to host apache; correct? | 00:52 |
| acp_ | hi | 00:52 |
| BLOODCLAW | lstarnes: thanks for your help and patience =D | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip28 | effi: not unless you use epidermis. its not implemented in karmic yet | 00:52 |
| bastid_razor | BLOODCLAW: port 80 is a standard port for a webserver.. nonstandard is anything other than that.. i use 9999 .. so if you don't have a redirect available you would need to include that.. http://my.webserver.com:9999/ .. for example | 00:53 |
| effi | ActionParsnip28: im not very good in linux and understanding it... but i guess then that the login screen i now use as standart on karmic is not epidermis? | 00:53 |

| musictoto | Shinydan_: sure do, that will be the easiest way | 01:05 |
| Milos_SD | ActionParsnip28, no I didn't. It isn't even listen on lspci or lshw :( | 01:05 |
| AndChat | Anyone else having problems with tomboy? | 01:05 |
| iceroot | dsnyders: evolution should do it imo | 01:05 |
| gr4p3s | ssv1994: try other videos and see if they flicker. videos not on youtube, but other sites like veog | 01:05 |
| gr4p3s | veoh* | 01:05 |

| ubottu | AndChat: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip28 | milos_sd: you need lsusb | 01:05 |
| BLOODCLAW | iceroot: i know a decent amount about linux. spam-relay? | 01:06 |
| BLOODCLAW | bastid_razor: its very appreciated. http://www.speedtest.net/result/669176624.png <-- thats the results | 01:06 |
| shawn146 | long live the penguin!!! | 01:06 |
| dsnyders | iceroot, I've ditched evolution in favour of thunderbird. Besides, it's a bit heavy for a pizza timer. | 01:06 |
| ActionParsnip28 | ssv1994: have you got 3D drivers installed? Can you run 3D games or compiz? | 01:06 |
| shawn146 | lol parsnip | 01:06 |
| Milos_SD | ActionParsnip28, didn't know that. Thanks, I'll try tomorow. Laptop is not mine, and is not here right now :) | 01:06 |
| ssv1994 | I don't but HD videos work fine | 01:06 |
| bastid_razor | BLOODCLAW: nice, looks as if you have a 20MB connection. you should be fine once you get it all set up. | 01:07 |
| ActionParsnip28 | ssv1994: ok thats cool | 01:07 |
| iceroot | dsnyders: yes you are right but from evolition i know its working with the clock | 01:07 |
| ssv1994 | I saw this problem with regular quality videos and HQ videos | 01:07 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: could use claws or sylpheed for lightness | 01:07 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: a mailserver which is sending mails from any domain to any domain. very common a missconfigured apache with mail() (php) | 01:08 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: does thunderbird use less ram etc? | 01:08 |
| dsnyders | ActionParsnip28, It seems to | 01:08 |
| ssv1994 | I hope my Internet connection is not the truble | 01:08 |
| BLOODCLAW | bastid_razor: is mysql required? | 01:08 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: cool. ive been looking for an alternative | 01:08 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: thanks | 01:08 |
| gr4p3s | ssv1994: use your netbook to stream a video from your other computer over your network, and see if that flickers | 01:09 |

| === Sharker is now known as Guest29447 | ||
| bastid_razor | !lamp | BLOODCLAW is probably what you're wanting | 01:10 |
| ubottu | BLOODCLAW is probably what you're wanting: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 01:10 |
| nisstyre65 | ssv1994; but you are still using a router are you not? | 01:10 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: its enough to upload a php-file to the server | 01:10 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: which is using mail() | 01:10 |
| ssv1994 | modem | 01:10 |
| gr4p3s | ssv1994: we get that... but did you listen to me at all? stream a video over your network and see if that flickers | 01:10 |
| dsnyders | ActionParsnip28, It's also from the same folks as firefox. | 01:10 |
| gr4p3s | so you dont have a router? | 01:10 |
| BLOODCLAW | iceroot: if i use python vs php would that prevent this? | 01:10 |
| ssv1994 | I think it wont | 01:10 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: so again, have a look about security (php) before hosting it | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: firefox is godawful | 01:10 |
| BLOODCLAW | bastid_razor: looking at the link now =D | 01:10 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: python has a mailfunction too | 01:10 |
| opticon | what can i use to manage ubuntu remotely from internet | 01:10 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: just use a good configuration | 01:10 |
| BLOODCLAW | iceroot: is it as easily exploited? | 01:10 |
| nisstyre65 | opticon; ssh | 01:10 |
| iceroot | opticon: ssh | 01:10 |
| al_ | iceroot: hmm, the impression I get from reading the man pages of rsync is that it definitly should only copy parts of files that have changed..... | 01:11 |
| nisstyre65 | use openssh | 01:11 |
| kraitos | amarok won't let me add music can anyone help? | 01:11 |
| al_ | iceroot: i must be missing something | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: chromium runs rings around it | 01:11 |
| gr4p3s | ssv1994: take the netbook and hook it up to a different network and try flash videos then. | 01:11 |
| iceroot | al_: thats what i read too | 01:11 |
| bastid_razor | BLOODCLAW: i don't have any type of security on my server for the fact it is on a non standard port.. but that is my choice of risk | 01:11 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: dependng what you are hosting | 01:11 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: if anyone can upload a file its not a good idea | 01:11 |
| musictoto | bastid_razor: that's a high risk and not recommendable :) | 01:12 |
| === Growlithe is now known as firepuppy | ||
| dsnyders | ActionParsnip28, I'm not familiar with chromium | 01:12 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: for e.g. using joomla, typo3 or other stuff in old (no security patches) | 01:12 |
| nisstyre65 | isn't it just chrome on top of ubuntu? | 01:12 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: in old versions | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: its a webkit based browser from google | 01:13 |
| Jordan_U | bastid_razor: It's really not hard to do a port scan | 01:13 |
| gr4p3s | nisstyre65: thats chrome os you're thinking about | 01:13 |

| Shinydan | thanks, all, that seems to be working fine | 01:13 |
| nisstyre65 | ah lol | 01:13 |
| dsnyders | ActionParsnip28, chromium == google chrome? | 01:13 |
| musictoto | Jordan_U: true about the port-scan ;) | 01:13 |
| musictoto | dsnyders: yes chromium is the project name, chrome is the result | 01:13 |
| === Guest29447 is now known as Sharker | ||
| gr4p3s | dsnyders: chromium is different from google chrome. its like the open source part of google chrome. basically same thing. but google chrome has google's logo, and i think its more stable | 01:14 |
| ActionParsnip28 | dsnyders: chromium is a bleeding edge version of chrome | 01:14 |
| edbian | musictoto, chromium is open source, chrome (the browser) is not | 01:14 |
| BLOODCLAW | iceroot: are you suggesting drop this project completely and look for alternatives, or just be very careful? | 01:14 |
| ardchoille | dsnyders: no, chromium is the open source project. Google Chrome is not open source | 01:14 |

| dsnyders | heoa, you seem to be adding users to Postgres using the user root. root may not be a database admin. | 01:19 |
| ActionParsnip28 | kraitos: you can use: chmod -x file or chmod -R -x folder to recursively remove the executability | 01:20 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: then test it in your lan | 01:20 |
| Blue1 | BLOODCLAW: the u.s. is a nation of laws. badly written and poorly enforced...frank zappa | 01:20 |
| musictoto | BLOODCLAW: then you could just create that server and keep things inside your lan without linking ports | 01:20 |

| ActionParsnip28 | guest75026: i'd say that was perfect. it is ok, not great but not bad | 01:21 |
| gr4p3s | Guest75026: check to see if CS runs under Wine first | 01:22 |

| iceroot | RedLance: use dd for it | 01:28 |
| BLOODCLAW | Blue1: is it possible to write whole webpages in python haha? | 01:28 |

| soopos | My auth_log has regularly login sessions for svn-autoreleasedeb. How can you kill the app? | 01:31 |
| etfb | ActionParsnip28, don't care about glossy, but I like progress graphs. | 01:31 |
| ZaNeIuM | what is the x in tar -x meen? | 01:31 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: maybe #httpd or #python is a better channel for that specific questions | 01:31 |
| Blue1 | RedLance: http://www.hak5.org - you'll have to schlep around the site to find the episode.. | 01:31 |
| ActionParsnip28 | lumee: use a lighter browser, firefox sucks with ram | 01:31 |
| iceroot | ZaNeIuM: man tar | 01:31 |
| RedLance | ZaNeIuM, Extract | 01:31 |
| RedLance | Blue1, Cool, thanks! | 01:31 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: probably | 01:31 |
| etfb | nisstyre65, ktorrent is KDE, not Gnome, and I'm trying to stick to Gnome where possible. | 01:31 |
| ChogyDan | lumee: maybe run flash through wine. Flash is quite slow on linux | 01:32 |
| lstarnes | BLOODCLAW: but depending on what else you want to use, you will likely need to include additional things such as mysql and php | 01:32 |
| gr4p3s | etfb: Go with Deluge. | 01:32 |
| lumee | ActionParsnip28: the problem is not firefox, i have the same problem with chrome the problem is not RAM is CPU 100% of load | 01:32 |
| iceroot | etfb: transmission | 01:32 |
| BLOODCLAW | lstarnes: thanks a bunch | 01:32 |
| BLOODCLAW | iceroot: thanks a bunch | 01:32 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: good luck with your server | 01:32 |
| ActionParsnip28 | lumee: try disabling some addons | 01:32 |
| FiReSTaRT | ActionParsnip28: you guys discussing the flash memory leak problem? | 01:32 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: and feel free to come back here for ubuntu-support | 01:32 |
| etfb | iceroot, Transmission is certainly a good product, but as an alternative to Transmission, it's not so great. Though it's certainly no worse. | 01:33 |
| Shinydan | iceroot, musictoto: Thanks a lot, all working fine and dandy now. | 01:33 |
| BLOODCLAW | iceroot: do you do this for fun? help out people? | 01:33 |
| musictoto | Shinydan: good :) | 01:33 |
| ActionParsnip28 | firestart: pretty much | 01:33 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: give back something for ubuntu | 01:33 |

| tritium | bryce__: the PUEL version supports USB, so most likely, yes. | 01:34 |
| iceroot | BLOODCLAW: also sometimes some upstreams for debian based distris (which will maybe go into ubuntu) | 01:34 |
| bryce__ | ok, sweet | 01:34 |
| bryce__ | ima go try it | 01:34 |
| gr4p3s | I love how everyone is telling etfb to use Transmission... when he's already using it and trying to find an alternative. etfb, use Deluge. It looks similar to uTorrent. | 01:34 |
| musictoto | bryce__: yes, if you link your USB port to the VM | 01:34 |
| ActionParsnip28 | bryce__: i think so. you can use native apps instead | 01:34 |
| iceroot | bastid_razor: hehe, didnt know that command | 01:34 |
| jellow | i can't access "> | 01:34 |
| ActionParsnip28 | bryce__: it will be lighter and free too | 01:34 |

| gr4p3s | powersource: I'm not trying to blame you... I'm just commenting on it in the hope that someone could suggest to etfb something that he would want... Because I've suggested Deluge several times and he hasn't replied yet. But not trying to blame you, so dont swear, please? | 01:38 |

| Guest75026 | how do i share a DSL linux connection via adhoc wireless with another pc running windows xp ? | 01:41 |
| Jordan_U | Guest75026: System > Preferences > Networking. Create a new wireless connection and in the ipv4 tab choose method "Shared" | 01:41 |
| ZaNeIuM | as in the national park? | 01:41 |

| plustax | ok | 01:50 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub2 | 01:50 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 01:50 |
| plustax | jellow it says glib-warning ** g_set_prgname() called multiple times | 01:51 |
| plustax | then it opened it up. and I had the same issue. | 01:51 |
| m0se5 | My dual monitors only work in gnome. How do I make them work using xfce or kde? Ubuntu 9.10 using an ATI Radeon X1300/X1550 Series graphics card. | 01:51 |

| Zeonisis | Is 9.10 compatible with the Dell Inspiron 1525? | 01:51 |
| tritium | Zeonisis: yes | 01:51 |
| Zeonisis | Any required drivers? | 01:51 |
| plustax | jellow I have tried update and upgrade. I am up to date. I think I might have the wrong video driver or something? | 01:52 |
| plustax | but my keyboard doesnt work in IRC either. Which is weird. | 01:52 |
| Zeonisis | tritium: Any required drivers besides the standards? | 01:52 |
| syockit | Zeonisis: If that Dell has similar spec to my Studio 1525, then you might need to get ATI binary driver | 01:52 |
| jellow | plustax: You have nvidia drivers ? | 01:52 |
| tritium | Zeonisis: not that I'm aware of | 01:53 |
| Zeonisis | syockit: How? Where? | 01:53 |
| Zeonisis | tritium: Thanks | 01:53 |
| etfb | gr4p3s, I've downloaded Deluge. For some reason it doesn't recognise the partly downloaded episode I'm torrenting now, so I'll continue to use Transmission till it finishes, then switch over permanently. | 01:53 |
| tritium | Zeonisis: ATI drivers are avialable from the restricted drivers manager, which should automatically prompt you with a suggestion to install the proprietary drivers shortly after install. | 01:54 |
| Zeonisis | Thanks | 01:54 |
| syockit | Zeonisis: ATI binary driver can be gotten from official ATI website. You might need to find the howto in ubuntuforums.org if you're not sure how to install | 01:54 |
| jellow | plustax: Delete your .mozzila in /home before you mess with drivers | 01:54 |
| syockit | tritium: would that get him the latest driver? | 01:54 |
| tritium | syockit: please don't recommend ati.com downloads | 01:54 |
| tritium | syockit: it'll get him the current version of fglrx in the repos | 01:55 |
| syockit | tritium: i don't know, I had problems using the driver from the restricted driver manager | 01:55 |
| gr4p3s | etfb: Change Deluge's settings so it downloads to the same folder that the partially downloaded files are already in. And if it still doesn't work, force a recheck. Btw, I'm kinda in and out, so if you message me again, i might not reply for a while. | 01:55 |
| kinja-sheep | gr4p3s: http://tinyurl.com/yauun2z :) | 01:55 |
| jellow | plustax: rm -rf .mozilla , this will DELETE your bookmarks , Then try firefox agian | 01:56 |
| gr4p3s | kinja-sheep: wow, that's really good info. o.O I used to use kTorrent, but I dont like KDE apps on GNOME, and Transmission is too... weird for me. I like how Vuze looks, but it uses up too much RAM compared to Deluge. Thanks for the link though! | 01:57 |

| inferno_daulXEON | I'm having a strange issue I finally got time to troubleshoot:::::::: When I boot, ubuntu fails to start gdm because of an issue with the graphics card it seems. So I log in and then "startx" and gdm comes up fine... then about 5 minutes later it shows me the login screen, so I log in and everything resumes... Its doing the right things but IN THE WRONG ORDER! >.< | 02:01 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Im using an ASRock-G45Twins-FullHD motherboard with the included pci digital display card | 02:02 |

| inferno_daulXEON | ChogyDan When I upgraded to Karmic this started | 02:03 |
| inferno_daulXEON | ChogyDan the original install was on a gigabyte ga-ep45-ud3p board, then I swapped it for the ASRock. It worked fine for a week then I went to karmic. It hasn't been a life threatening issue so I've just been dealing with it | 02:04 |

| inferno_daulXEON | Edgar1 are you using the headphone jack or SPDIF | 02:10 |
| Edgar1 | a simple stereo speaker | 02:10 |
| Edgar1 | in my system i have a c-media sound car | 02:10 |
| Edgar1 | card | 02:10 |
| n1lqj | upgraded two machines to karmic, neither has a working mic input now on any soundcard, anyone heard of this problem? | 02:11 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Right Click on the volume icon to pull up the sound controls. - See if your hardware is listed :: Edgar1 and n1lqj | 02:11 |
| Scunizi | n1lqj: check to see if it's set for digital or analogue | 02:12 |
| Edgar1 | analog i see | 02:12 |
| n1lqj | analog | 02:12 |
| inferno_daulXEON | ChogyDan you have any clue as to the source of my issues? or do I need tissues and the whaaaaambulance | 02:12 |
| Scunizi | Edgan: n1lqj change to the opposite and retest :) | 02:12 |
| Edgar1 | i have no digital option :-/ | 02:13 |

| Scunizi | Edgan: n1lqj also click the 20db boost button | 02:13 |
| * r00tintheb0x bangs head on keyboard. | 02:13 | |
| n1lqj | I am not seeing these things. this is very different from 9.04 :( and there is no digital option on this machine | 02:13 |
| Edgar1 | the same for me and Im in 9.10 | 02:14 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Edgar1: n1lqj Im assuming if your smart enough to log into irc, youve already checked the speakers are on and all volume levels are up? | 02:14 |
| Edgar1 | right Im smart enough | 02:14 |
| Edgar1 | even that i have checked the gstreamer-properties for every devices | 02:14 |
| n1lqj | sound out works, sound in does not. I use these computers for ham radio and no mic inputs since upgrade. sound out works fine | 02:14 |
| Scunizi | n1lqj: doing packet? | 02:15 |
| iKernel | Edgar1, hm try lsof /dev/snd/* maybe there's some proggy using your sound device that you dont know about | 02:15 |

| NamVet | I got this advice from Dr_Willis but I don't know how. "you could move the broken users .gnome* and .gconf* directories somewhere, then login as that user. and it should 'reset' your gnome settings back to defaults" | 02:17 |
| n1lqj | already upgraded laptop :( | 02:17 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Would anyone happen to know why GDM gives errors starting and times out until I log in, in text mode and startx. Everything is fine after that? except for after a min or two it dumps me to the login screen and i type a pass and it goes away | 02:17 |
| inferno_daulXEON | jellow You just want to forward the ports? | 02:17 |
| Edgar1 | iKernel what can i do now with that? [Results: http://pastebin.com/d40c480f5] | 02:18 |
| n1lqj | great, upgraded 3 computers to 9.10 and no mic input on all three computers, ugh! | 02:18 |

| iKernel | Edgar1, you need to make sure which ever program you're using has pulseaudio supprot | 02:19 |
| iKernel | I think pulseaudio happily takes sound from apps with alsa plugins though | 02:20 |
| jackstraw | how do i make an installation usb for karmic? | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: rename/move those directories.. * is a wild card meaning .gnome(anything) | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: and the . in the name means the dirs are normally 'hidden' | 02:20 |
| Edgar1 | iKernel i think that rhythmbox and gnome use pulseaudio | 02:20 |

| n1lqj | okay pumping output of laptop into line in of soundcard and nada | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: 'mv oneitem otheritem' | 02:23 |
| inferno_daulXEON | jellow: Safe is a relative term. Can peers see the ip - only of the first box the traffic hits. Can an ISP see it? most likely? Can they do anything about it ? nope | 02:23 |
| Polterge|st | can anyone in here tell me what the command is to reconfigure the keyboard layout using dpkg ? | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: or use the file manager and drag/drop themn into somne other directory. use alt-h to shiow hidden files. | 02:23 |
| NamVet | file manager? is that a gui? | 02:24 |
| Polterge|st | a friend of mine is using Mint and I cannot find the Mint channel but since it is based on Ubuntu I thought trying what works in Ubuntu for that might possibly work in Mint also , so I am wanting to know how to reconfigure the keyboard package in Ubuntu | 02:24 |

| Polterge|st | I do not know if the package names are the same in Ubuntu and Mint for kdb because different repos but I thought it might be worth a try | 02:25 |
| NamVet | Dr_Willis is the file manager a gui? | 02:25 |
| jackstraw | Poltergeist> nooo idea. | 02:25 |
| jackstraw | no clue. | 02:25 |
| jackstraw | sorry. | 02:25 |
| ajamison5579 | what version of x.org is included with 9.10 | 02:25 |
| jackstraw | jellow> use a vpn my nigga | 02:25 |
| m0se5 | Polterge|st, I think it's sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 02:25 |
| === Silanus_ is now known as Silanus | ||
| Polterge|st | ah thank you | 02:25 |
| Polterge|st | that will probably work | 02:25 |
| inferno_daulXEON | jellow: ditto what jackstraw said | 02:25 |
| Polterge|st | reconfig'ing X is a good way to tweak all of the settings | 02:25 |
| NamVet | Dr_Willis the file manager is Nautilus? | 02:25 |
| jellow | VPN are a pin too set up | 02:26 |
| jellow | pain* | 02:26 |
| Samus_Aran | where has the manual partitioner gone in the Ubuntu installer ? | 02:26 |
| nisstyre65 | Polterge|st; did you try /list ctrl+f mint ? | 02:27 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Polterge|st: its now "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" | 02:27 |
| m0se5 | My dual monitors only work in gnome. How do I make them work using xfce or kde? Ubuntu 9.10 using an ATI Radeon X1300/X1550 Series graphics card. | 02:27 |
| inferno_daulXEON | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg no longer works | 02:27 |
| plustax | jellow | 02:28 |
| jellow | plustax: any luck? | 02:28 |
| plustax | no luck sir. | 02:28 |
| === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log | ||
| plustax | It fixed it for a sec | 02:28 |
| plustax | then I restarted firefox. same issue. | 02:28 |
| Samus_Aran | m0se5: you could do it manually by editing your xorg.conf file | 02:28 |
| inferno_daulXEON | all this helping jellow makes me want Jello | 02:28 |
| sub-sonic | mm | 02:29 |
| sub-sonic | jello | 02:29 |
| plustax | jellow could you check your pm? | 02:29 |
| Samus_Aran | inferno_daulXEON: nothing like a nice bowl of boiled bones, cartiledge and skin. nom-nom-nom. | 02:29 |
| m0se5 | Samus_Aran, I'm understood that xorg.conf isn't used anymore in Ubuntu 9.10 | 02:29 |
| NamVet | Anybody: In Karmic Koala OS is the file mgr Nautilus? | 02:30 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Samus_Aran: Yea its better with dried blood flakes. | 02:30 |
| m0se5 | Samus_Aran, anything I save in there doesn't seem to affect anything. | 02:30 |
| Samus_Aran | m0se5: that is incorrect. xorg.conf can't go away so long as Xorg is not psychic. it tries to automagically do things, when it fails, you use the config | 02:30 |
| Samus_Aran | inferno_daulXEON: I mean that's what gelatin is. | 02:30 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Yes | 02:30 |
| NamVet | Thank you EastDallas/ Mesquite here :) | 02:31 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Samus_Aran: I know... and I also know glue is made from horses but that didnt stop me from eating that either | 02:31 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Hey Neighbor! | 02:31 |
| Polterge|st | yep | 02:31 |
| Samus_Aran | inferno_daulXEON: I guess indifference is bliss. | 02:31 |
| Polterge|st | there are no mint channels around | 02:31 |
| Polterge|st | anyway though it probably is not needed | 02:31 |
| Samus_Aran | m0se5: you could try opening up the Gnome setting app from XFCE4 or KDE | 02:31 |
| Polterge|st | more than likely the ubuntu commands will work | 02:31 |
| NamVet | EastDallas Hey neighbor, how do I access Nautilus file mgr? | 02:31 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Choose anything from the places menu. | 02:32 |
| NamVet | EastDallas, that is my problem nothing in the Places folder opens, the timer spins and quit w/ no Joy | 02:32 |
| kraitos | all my music files are set to be executive files, how do i change this? | 02:33 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: is it on a Unix filesystem, or a Windows filesystem ? | 02:33 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Try running from a terminal: nautilus | 02:33 |
| inferno_daulXEON | I need help.... I don't know what's going on. Ubuntu fails to start graphically and makes me console login.. but then i can startx and everything is awesome... WTF man! | 02:33 |
| NamVet | EastDallas do you have the exact cmd? Newbie here. | 02:33 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: nautilus | 02:34 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: on ubunut 9.10 ( linux) | 02:34 |
| Samus_Aran | inferno_daulXEON: I would recommend installing the old version of GDM (or use KDM), the new one is rather buggy | 02:34 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: that's not what I asked | 02:34 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: what filesystem are your MP3s located on ? | 02:34 |

| hexbase | hey, i get this while compiling:libtool: install: error: relink `opt.la' with the above command before installing it | 02:34 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: e.g. Ext3, FAT32, NTFS, ReiserFS, XFS, etc. | 02:34 |
| hexbase | how to i solve that? | 02:34 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: let me know what errors it gives if it won't open. | 02:34 |
| DaZ_ | hexbase: why do you compile it? :f | 02:35 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: their on a Fat32 partition i created on my computer | 02:35 |
| hexbase | DaZ_: because i want to =) | 02:35 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Samus_Aran: I don't get it... it works fine but it needs me to login first? it seems like something must have a permissions issue or somethigns wrong with the splash or login screen. | 02:35 |
| JMONEY | I get an error while trying to install: mount: mounting /dev/loop0 //filesystem.squashfs failed: invalid argument | 02:35 |
| hexbase | DaZ_: its libxfcegui | 02:36 |
| JMONEY | from CD | 02:36 |
| NamVet | EastDallas coming up; got errors | 02:36 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: FAT32 partitions don't have Unix permissions (such as read/write/execute) or users or groups, so when it is mounted there is one permission for all files, one for all directories, one group, one username. for the entire filesystem | 02:36 |
| JMONEY | I burnt 2 diff cds | 02:36 |
| JMONEY | same problem | 02:36 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: you can edit the /etc/fstab line if you want to remove the execute permissions from files | 02:36 |
| JMONEY | Tho I can install inside windows but i dont want that | 02:36 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: did you check the integrity of the cd in the installer environment ? | 02:36 |

| JMONEY | losha, yea | 02:36 |
| JMONEY | I know | 02:36 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: why do you want to remove the execute permissions, by the way ? | 02:36 |
| JMONEY | lol | 02:36 |
| JMONEY | I dont know what to do | 02:37 |

| JMONEY | inferno_daulXEON, I even try installing from/to a usb drive | 02:38 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: do you have a line in /etc/fstab for your FAT32 partition ? | 02:38 |
| JMONEY | not work | 02:38 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: go to http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste the errors there. Then post the link here. | 02:38 |
| losha | JMONEY: well that's a good sign, but they use totally different kernels. In your place, I would try downloading 8.04 instead. It's had tons of bugfixing and is probably the most stable of all the ubuntus... | 02:38 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: I had a friend with a similar issue. His drive just simply would NOT work under linux. only windows. Can you try a different drive? | 02:38 |

| Samus_Aran | heoa: command1 | command2 | 02:39 |
| JMONEY | same error | 02:39 |
| JMONEY | losha, thanks | 02:39 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: were exactly should it say it. | 02:39 |
| JMONEY | I have installed linux b4 on this box | 02:39 |
| JMONEY | Thats why I dont understand why is not working | 02:39 |
| losha | JMONEY: inferno_daulXEON: my current motherboard won't boot from sata cdroms, I had to add an ide cdrom to make it boot. But if you've booted *bsd with the same hardware, that's not *your* issue.... | 02:40 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: Fat32 is nowere in there | 02:40 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: stupid but how did you download the ISO | 02:40 |
| JMONEY | from windows | 02:40 |
| JMONEY | ubuntu.com | 02:41 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: torrent? http? ftp? | 02:41 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: actually the only file system on their are the one for linux. the ext4 and swap formats | 02:41 |
| NamVet | EastDallas i put it there at the link, don't know how that works. Hope I did it right | 02:41 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: What version of Ubuntu? | 02:41 |
| JMONEY | http | 02:41 |
| heoa | Samus_Aran: I mean if I spawn nethack with ! or lynx with !, how can I source or run things for them? | 02:41 |
| NamVet | EastDallas 9.10 | 02:41 |
| JMONEY | from: http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download | 02:41 |
| JMONEY | 9.10 | 02:41 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: Have you checked the MD5 of the ISO against the posted ones on the ubuntu site | 02:41 |
| heoa | Samus_Aran: the terminal is just an emulation there | 02:42 |
| JMONEY | inferno_daulXEON, yes I checked that md5 | 02:42 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: post the link to the page you get after you pressed send | 02:42 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: then it's auto-mounting it, and I don't know how to change permissions for Gnome's auto-mounter | 02:42 |
| hexbase | hey, how do i execute 2 commands in the same line? | 02:42 |
| hexbase | in bash | 02:42 |
| NamVet | EastDallas this all started trying to put Adobe Flashplayer so i could see YouTube vids. | 02:42 |
| Samus_Aran | heoa: what does "spawn app with !" mean ? | 02:42 |
| NamVet | EastDallas okay | 02:42 |
| bastid_razor | hexbase: command1 && command 2 .. the && will make command 2 wait til command 1 is finished | 02:43 |
| Samus_Aran | hexbase: do you want it to wait for the first command to finish, or run both simultaneously ? | 02:43 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: Have you tried redownloading the iso yet? | 02:43 |
| hexbase | ok | 02:43 |
| losha | inferno_daulXEON: you weren't here, but we checked all the obvious easy stuff yesterday. That's why I say it's time for JMONEY to try 8.04 LTS | 02:43 |
| NamVet | EastDallas http://paste.ubuntu.com/350204/ | 02:43 |
| hexbase | bastid_razor: thanks | 02:43 |
| JMONEY | inferno_daulXEON, yes I downloaded 2 of them already | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: I think you may of done somthing else really goofy. Installing flash really has nothing to do with teh gnome desktop | 02:43 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: right, is that the only way of fixing it. | 02:43 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: Im just trying to cover all the basis. I dont think your a d00f | 02:43 |
| JMONEY | losha, I'm going to download now. | 02:43 |
| Samus_Aran | bastid_razor: that's not quite correct. && will only run the second command if the first one was successfull | 02:43 |
| losha | b0zos: why are you PM'ing me? | 02:43 |
| JMONEY | U guys are very helpful | 02:43 |
| JMONEY | thanks alot | 02:43 |
| NamVet | Dr_Willis , I agree whole heartedly, got some bad advice | 02:44 |

| JMONEY | wired | 02:44 |
| eltume | can someone help me get my xchat toolbar back with the options for server, channels etc | 02:44 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: you need to alter the mount options (umask, specifically) | 02:44 |
| JMONEY | losha, so if I download 8.04 can I upgrade to 9.10 ? | 02:44 |
| eltume | i accidently deleted | 02:44 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: What was the full error again. It was about squashfs. not properly mounting during install | 02:44 |
| JMONEY | inferno_daulXEON, yeah | 02:45 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran, how exactly do i do that? | 02:45 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: How did you install Flash? | 02:45 |
| losha | JMONEY: yes, though it's a long process, and we aren't even sure if 9.10 will run on your hardware. There are worse things than being stuck at 8.04.... | 02:45 |
| JMONEY | inferno_daulXEON, mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: invalid arguments | 02:45 |
| NamVet | EastDallas never did get it to install | 02:45 |
| JMONEY | losha, I did install inside of windows and it worked. | 02:45 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: as I said, I don't know how to change Gnome's auto-mounter. I don't use Gnome, and don't like things being done automatically. I know how to do everything manually. | 02:45 |

| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: see I dont understand the error. It doesnt make much sense logically. SquashFS is a readonly filesystem.. and its trying to mount something to it? I dont know a crapload about the install steps | 02:46 |
| Samus_Aran | eltume: ask in #XChat | 02:46 |
| NamVet | Yes, I used aptget but the os was already toast | 02:47 |
| JMONEY | thats the error | 02:47 |
| losha | JMONEY: interesting. But it seems clear that we don't understand why you seem unable to install 9.10 onto disk. 8.04 would be an interesting data point, and give you something to work with. There's always virtualbox too if you wish.... | 02:47 |
| eltume | Samus_Aryan, keyword: I CAN'T CHANGE IRC SERVERS OR CHANNEL | 02:47 |
| eltume | #xchat | 02:47 |
| Samus_Aran | inferno_daulXEON: mounting a filesystem does not cause a write to that filesystem, it merely comandeers that particular directory, hiding the contents of it while the mount is going on | 02:47 |

| kraitos | my music on my external (fat32 file system) keeps getting read like it has executive permission | 02:56 |
| ActionParsnip | tvaughn: you could use a live cd to configure partitions first | 02:57 |

| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: I have to use the alternates all the time because I need extra features and configurations from them. Also, being text based, theres no video issues during install | 02:57 |
| tvaughn | ActionParsnip: theres no way to do it otherwise? | 02:57 |
| inferno_daulXEON | JMONEY: you want the download url? | 02:57 |
| JMONEY | inferno_daulXEON, I got it already | 02:57 |
| JMONEY | thanks | 02:57 |
| losha | karma_police: flash mostly works ok if you install it ok. It was a mess initially I admit.... | 02:57 |
| shawn146 | GParted is Gnome Partitioner | 02:57 |
| Samus_Aran | boo @ Lynx, that's already the name of a web browser. should have gone for Lucid Leopard or Lucid Llama :p | 02:58 |
| ActionParsnip | tvaughn: ive not used the server install. I always use minimal. but its always had the ability to create custom partition sizes | 02:58 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Yes, click the link. you can add the ppa by following the instrux under "adding this ppa to your system". | 02:58 |

| alain_ | help with my pinnacle please | 02:59 |
| losha | shawn146: you asked about Qnome. Was that a typo? | 02:59 |
| shawn146 | no that was a spelling error of mine | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Polterge|st: ages ago the key combo alt-ctrl-NUMPAD + and - could do that. Not sure if that still works | 03:00 |
| Samus_Aran | shawn146: "GParted (abbreviated as GPT) is a GTK+ frontend to GNU Parted and the official GNOME Partition Editor application." thought it was just an abreviation for GNU Parted, but it's a front-end | 03:00 |

| kraitos | i can't add music to amarok can anyone help? | 03:00 |

| Samus_Aran | JMONEY: the web site also has md5 checksums of all downloads, so if you do a direct download, check that after | 03:00 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: what happens when you click on the executable mp3 files ? | 03:01 |
| JMONEY | Samus_Aran, thanks I've tried that too | 03:01 |
| ActionParsnip | shawn146: its too complicated to discuss here, there are lots and lots of guides online | 03:01 |
| losha | JMONEY: I notice that google turns up quite a few matches on the error you report. You're obviously not the only person who's run into this issue, but I haven' | 03:01 |

| shawn146 | oh | 03:02 |
| Samus_Aran | JMONEY: anyhow, the alternate installer is there for everyone that has any issues with the main one. it's far more fool-proof and bug-free | 03:02 |
| Samus_Aran | JMONEY: it's just not quite as "pretty" | 03:02 |

| losha | NamVet: in theory, you'd be back where you started.... | 03:04 |
| NamVet | losha: w/ the problems or fixed? | 03:05 |

| speedyhak | ? | 03:05 |
| ipatrol | My install isn't working | 03:05 |
| bastid_razor | speedyhak: ask in a backtrack4 channel? | 03:06 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: losha: as opposed to regular removal | 03:06 |
| EastDallas | Namvet: It's worth a shot | 03:06 |
| speedyhak | yes | 03:06 |
| ipatrol | I've seen the grey ubuntu symbol for three hours | 03:06 |
| xdrr | speedyhak: it should already be there, what version? | 03:06 |
| alain_ | i have url that explain who install but i cant install | 03:06 |
| losha | NamVet: sorry, but that depends on why the problem is there in the first place. If it's a misconfig, reinstalling might fix it. No guarantees though, sorry... | 03:06 |
| ipatrol | What's wrong? | 03:06 |
| speedyhak | version 4 | 03:06 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: when i go to open with another program it says "file type to be opened: executable" | 03:06 |
| NamVet | EastDallas: losha: i'll give it a shot. | 03:07 |
| losha | NamVet: good luck.... | 03:07 |
| xdrr | speedyhak: I havent used it in a while, but are you able to check if compiz is installed? | 03:07 |
| xdrr | the remote-exploit team moved to ubuntu so im not sure what 3d changes they made | 03:07 |
| speedyhak | yes i installed all packge for compiz | 03:07 |
| ipatrol | !HELP | 03:07 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 03:07 |
| speedyhak | but icant active using compiz | 03:08 |
| ipatrol | stupid caps | 03:08 |
| ipatrol | Can I have some help | 03:08 |

| bahodir | hey guys, how to restore default file type association? | 03:09 |
| NamVet | EastDallas: Nautilus completely removed allong w/ desktop and Gnome should I log out and log back in then reinstall it? | 03:10 |
| xdrr | ipatrol: This installed is it the standard installed for debian\ubuntu ? or something else (gui/term)? | 03:10 |
| iqbala | losha: it does not read video cd file.. i get errors like this http://pastebin.com/d73c74ff2 | 03:10 |
| ipatrol | xddrr: The gray ubuntu icon has been there for hours | 03:10 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: i'm trying to add all my music to amarok | 03:10 |
| Samus_Aran | bahodir: in what ? | 03:10 |
| bahodir | ubuntu gnome | 03:10 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: You completely removed gnome? | 03:10 |
| shawn146 | where can i learn how to use gparted? | 03:10 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: don't you do that through Amarok's interface ? | 03:10 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: what did you remove exactly? | 03:10 |
| NamVet | EastDallas that is what it said it was going to do w/ config files also | 03:10 |
| ipatrol | xdrr: I booted from CD, which said four files were corrupted | 03:11 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: anyhow, just right-click > properties, open with, then add Amarok as the default command. if it's not in the list, go to custom command, and locate /usr/bin/amarok | 03:11 |
| xdrr | ipatrol: ok thats prob why its stalled, did you download an ISO? | 03:11 |
| ZaNeIuM | how do i check the date a file was created in the terminal? | 03:11 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: yes but it gets to 98% and it doesn't do anything. and when i try to do 1 sond at a time it won't do anything either | 03:11 |
| NamVet | Dr_Willis Nautilus which was w/ Desktop and Gnome | 03:11 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: err.. why did you do this? | 03:11 |
| losha | iqbala: I've had trouble with videocds before. Can you play the file with mplayer or vlc? | 03:11 |
| ipatrol | xdrr: I got the iso via torrent | 03:11 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: what gets to 98% ? | 03:11 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: I would try re-installing the package called ubuntu-desktop and don't log out first | 03:11 |
| shawn146 | ?? | 03:12 |
| iqbala | losha: no.. | 03:12 |
| bahodir | Samus_Aran: can you help me? When I try to open any file, it opens with a text editor | 03:12 |
| ctmjr | !pm | alain_ | 03:12 |

| ipatrol | xdrr: the first hash check failed, but I just redid it and it suceeded | 03:12 |
| Samus_Aran | bahodir: in what, Gnome/Nautilus ? | 03:12 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: the bar on amarok saying that it's 98% complete scanning my music and adding it | 03:12 |
| iqbala | losha: right now i am using vcdxrip to convert the dat files to mpg and then adding the tracks to handbrake.. that works fine | 03:12 |
| xdrr | ipatrol: if you can check the version ill see if i can find you a good md5 hash otherwise you can check on the site for the ISO MD5 and ensure its correct with your torrented version just incase that is a bad one | 03:12 |
| bahodir | Samus_Aran: yes nautilus | 03:12 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: this sounds like an Amarok issue, not one of executable files | 03:12 |
| NamVet | EastDallas: Dr_Willis: had to do something been reading forums & logs until I am blue in the face like i said this has been going on for almost 3wks. at my end on this. | 03:13 |
| alain_ | how i paste here the result of comand | 03:13 |
| iqbala | losha: but i am looking for something as one tool that converts the video cd to dvd | 03:13 |

| Dr_Willis | NamVet: i think you may want to be spending some time learbning more linux basics.. Ive not sure of what the origianl problem is.. but if that newly made user worked.. and the old user dident.. then it wasent a gnome/nautilus issue.. or was there some other issue going on? | 03:13 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: I think I would've just re-installed after a couple of days if I were you. Did you install package ubuntu-desktop? | 03:14 |
| alain_ | ctmjr http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d2816ead | 03:14 |
| Dr_Willis | NamVet: perhaps state to the channel the core of the actual problem - and see who can help. | 03:14 |
| losha | iqbala: good luck with that. Frankly. I think it's a miracle you have something that works. Linux isn't at its best when doing multimedia.... | 03:14 |
| EastDallas | Dr_Willis: He already did a long time ago | 03:14 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: you might be right because i tryed to play with rhythbox and it work just fine. well thanks for the help | 03:14 |
| EastDallas | Dr_Willis: like 20 minutes | 03:15 |
| Dr_Willis | long time ago = I have the attention span of a Goldfish.... | 03:15 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 03:15 |
| Samus_Aran | bahodir: might be in ~/.local/share/applications/ if they are then removing them and restarting Gnome should do the trick | 03:15 |
| Dr_Willis | EastDallas: i seem to recall talking to him yesterday on teh same issue. (i think) :) | 03:15 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: tell me if this a good idea i'm going to try to purge amarok and install again. | 03:15 |
| bahodir | Samus_Aran: i did that but didn't work | 03:15 |
| NamVet | Dr_Willis all good time, sir. Only so many hrs in the day. I am at this from am early to pm late, still all very confusing | 03:15 |
| Samus_Aran | bahodir: if you want to manually add a file association, you right-click on a file then go to properties, then the open with tab | 03:15 |
| losha | Dr_Willis: I have the atten....ooh, shiny thing.... | 03:15 |
| EastDallas | Dr_Willis: Nautilus fails with the following error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/350204/ | 03:15 |
| bahodir | Samus_Aran: i know, but now everything in my system is messed up and it'd take hours to do it | 03:16 |
| bastid_razor | squirrel! | 03:16 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: are you reinstalling ubuntu-desktop? | 03:16 |
| NamVet | Dr_Willis East Dallas Nautilus reinstalled, I will try it in the terminal now | 03:16 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: purging amarock (I assume you mean with Synaptic/apt-get/dpkg) will not touch anything in your home directory, where your personal Amarok settings are | 03:16 |
| alain_ | ctmjr http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d2816ead | 03:16 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: you'll probably want to exit amarok then remove your amarok config directory | 03:16 |
| NamVet | EastDallas the desktop was part of Nautilus, so what ever it installed w/ it | 03:16 |
| Samus_Aran | b | 03:16 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: i'm purging in on konsole. | 03:17 |
| Samus_Aran | bahodir: people can't help you unless you are clear about what the problem is. "everything doesn't work" is not useful. if nothing on your computer works, I would recommend going outside for a walk | 03:17 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Nautilus is part of gnome, gnome is not part of nautilus | 03:17 |
| NamVet | EastDallas: got the same errors as before | 03:17 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: okay. but it won't touch your personal Amarok settings, those are in ~ | 03:17 |
| bahodir | Samus_aran: when I click on a movie or a pdf file or any other file type, it would open in gedit. | 03:18 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: it should be in ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok | 03:18 |
| ipatrol | my empathy is malfunctioning and its irc channel is dead | 03:18 |
| Samus_Aran | kraitos: so remove or rename that folder if you want to start fresh. reinstalling or purging and reinstalling won't likely make any difference | 03:19 |
| Samus_Aran | bahodir: and I suggested you remove the files in the directory I mentioned, and then restart Gnome. you did not do this | 03:19 |
| kraitos | Samus_Aran: so how do i change the setting | 03:19 |
| alain_ | hello, my problem is I can not install my Pinnacle PCTV 70e. I looked at several pages where they have succeeded but I am not able to make it work. Koalay karmic want to use to run the final card to use linux. thanks | 03:19 |

| alain_ | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d2816ead | 03:20 |

| ctmjr | alain_ sorry i cannot read that so i do not know what it had you do besides install v4l drivers which are already there, you can try and unplug the stick and remove the modules and then plug the stick back in | 03:27 |
| ipatrol | ActionParsnip: A killall restart fixed it | 03:27 |
| chrome_ | xdrr: just big font.. And now I tried it with the installation and it seems fine .. But I want to install it... | 03:28 |

| mazda01 | trying to blank a rewritable cd, tried brasero but no option to burn new image and overwrite old data like in Windows PowerISO and also tried k3b, failed to blank it. any other ideas? | 03:30 |
| chrome_ | xdrr: I found something.. through the live session I'm able to install it.. and I can see the installation boxes good! | 03:30 |
| KingMagnus | bazhang: Du ser ju lite trött ut då... NÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ :) | 03:30 |
| bazhang | KingMagnus, norwegian? | 03:30 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Click 'Mark all upgrades', then ensure 'Nautilus' is in the list. Click 'Apply' | 03:30 |
| NamVet | EastDallas rgr "ppa:erez-volk/nautilus" going now | 03:30 |
| ctmjr | alain_: run rmmod em28xx | 03:31 |
| Samus_Aran | goodnight | 03:31 |
| ctmjr | alain_: run sudo rmmod em28xx | 03:31 |
| ActionParsnip | mazda01: gnomebaker has it | 03:31 |
| KingMagnus | bazhang: Har du homosexkomplex. Det finns inga genvägar fram till det perfekta ljudet dårå | 03:31 |
| xdrr | chrome_: were you doing it via console before? | 03:31 |
| mazda01 | ActionParsnip, gnomebaker can overwrite old data on rewritable cd and burn new image all at once? | 03:31 |
| alain_ | ctmjr, ERROR: Module em28xx does not exist in /proc/modules | 03:32 |
| Krezlyn | Hallow everybuddy | 03:32 |
| chrome_ | xdrr: no console available on install :\\ I simply booted the pc with the CD and selected the option 'Install Ubuntu' | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | mazda01: you'd need to blank the disk first | 03:32 |
| NamVet | EastDallas done | 03:32 |
| Krezlyn | can anyone recommend a good Ubuntu/Gnome Theme manager application? | 03:32 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: YOu got the patched version of nautilus installed? | 03:33 |
| mazda01 | ActionParsnip, what makes you think gnomebaker will work if k3b doesn't? doesn't gnomebaker just use wodim similarly to k3b? | 03:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Krezlyn: epidermis | 03:33 |
| NamVet | EastDallas did it the way you told me | 03:33 |
| xdrr | chrome_: im pretty sure they should use the same GUI to install either way, are you using a laptop and whats you max res? | 03:33 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: try opening nautilus | 03:33 |
| NamVet | EastDallas rgr | 03:33 |
| ActionParsnip | mazda01: its a different project altogether, sure it uses some common bits as thats one of the strengths in linux but the way there are implemented | 03:33 |
| Krezlyn | is there a website for it? | 03:34 |
| NamVet | EastDallas no joy | 03:34 |
| NamVet | EastDallas same errors | 03:34 |
| mazda01 | ActionParsnip, hang on, the disc was automounted so I bet if I unmount it first and then try k3b again, it might work. i just read the log of k3b finally and it said that the cd was mounted and k3b couldn't get exclusuve access to it. i'll check out gnomebaker as I am a gdm guy versus kde. thanks | 03:35 |
| chrome_ | xdrr: yes laptop.. the GUI seems the same.. but the fonts now are OK, not big. MAX RES: 1280x800.. What FS do you recommend? Ext4? | 03:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Krezlyn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidermis_(software) | 03:35 |
| ActionParsnip | mazda01: sure you can't manipulate disks like that if they are mounted | 03:35 |
| ActionParsnip | mazda01: one reason i dont use automount | 03:35 |
| NamVet | EastDallas where I made the original mistake was going to the Adobe website to get the download | 03:36 |
| mazda01 | ActionParsnip, yeah, you know what they say, RTFP, read the ______ prompt, or in this case read the log | 03:36 |
| xdrr | chrome_: ext4 or 3 with a usual swap etc, it could be that the GDM works better with your laptop / res, i can see some others who have had a similar problem with the normal installer (not live mode) | 03:36 |
| mazda01 | ActionParsnip, yeah, it's in my fstab for cd's and dvd drives | 03:36 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Yeah, there's a version of flash that works fine available via Synaptic | 03:36 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Unfortunately, we were all trained to go to the website from using Windows | 03:37 |
| NamVet | EastDallas rgr I originally went in synaptic and did a search and it gave the link for the adobe flashplayer? new to Ubuntu so I clicked the link and the sheet hit the proverbial fan | 03:37 |
| Krezlyn | can linux read UDF Volumes? | 03:39 |
| NamVet | EastDallas been installing Ubuntu on our computer club members' pc like crazy, they love it | 03:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Krezlyn: http://ascending.wordpress.com/2008/06/14/howto-read-vista-burnt-udf-dvds-on-ubuntu-linux/ | 03:39 |
| ctmjr | alain_: ok this is what i think happened ubuntu has drivers for v4l then you installed the v4l drivers from mercurial and messed it all up i do not know how to remove the drivers from mercurial | 03:39 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: YOu might need to enable the optional repositories in Synaptic. Settings>Repositories>make sure the top 4 boxes are checked on the first tab | 03:39 |
| Krezlyn | thank you | 03:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Krezlyn: i suggest you use a proper urning app which uses ISO standards | 03:40 |
| NamVet | EastDallas rgr I'll do it now | 03:40 |
| miked595 | anyone familiar with mediamonkey on windows? I'm looking for an app that can auto tag ID3 and auto the path based on the id3 | 03:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Krezlyn: microsoft are really good t ignoring them | 03:40 |
| [V]ortex` | my firefox 3.5 has displays pictures as low resolution. How do i increase it? | 03:40 |
| ActionParsnip | miked595: amarok can try guess tags based on path | 03:41 |
| NamVet | EastDallas they are already checked | 03:41 |
| Krezlyn | well, i'm trying to install a app from a UDF File dvd | 03:41 |
| ActionParsnip | [V]ortex`: tried the mozilla ppa | 03:41 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: Is reinstalling an option at this point? I've googled this error, and haven't really found any resolution other than that patch. | 03:41 |
| miked595 | ActionParsnip: I'm trying to do the other way around | 03:41 |
| NamVet | EastDallas Setting>repositories>software | 03:41 |
| [V]ortex` | ActionParsnip, what is the mozilla ppa? | 03:41 |
| bobobob | what is the "add/remove" app from the menu that has education, games, internet, office, etc called?...not synaptic or apt-get, the | 03:41 |
| Yakuzing | miked595, for tagging, mp3tag is quite useful but you will often have to choose atleast something yourself. but you can make it auto tag from nearly anything if you want it enough :> | 03:41 |
| MyGame | aaaaaaaaaaasdsdsdsSDDSFDSFSD | 03:41 |
| ActionParsnip | miked595: like, moving the files automatically, based on tag? | 03:41 |

| tos_ | hi.. i set up a virtual machine, and it looks like it made an adapter vnet0 on the Host machine... but it only has an IPV6 adress, how can i make it ipv4, on the virtual machine it has eth0 with an ipv4 address....... | 03:42 |
| miked595 | ActionParsnip: ya mediamonkey does that and I ca autotag from amazon's library | 03:42 |
| NamVet | EastDallas I don't mind reinstall, done it a couple of times. but not to happy about losing personal files. I have a 8 gig flashusb but don't know how to get files to it from Terminal | 03:42 |
| ActionParsnip | miked595: not sure about that, not something i'd trust personally | 03:42 |
| EastDallas | NamVet: I don't understand how you got a link to the adobe website in Synaptic?!?! The package is adobe-flashplugin. | 03:42 |
| NamVet | EastDallas also a 40gb external hard drive. | 03:42 |
| miked595 | Yakuzing: can I use that to search for an album on say amazon and apply that album to a directory of mp3s? | 03:43 |
| [V]ortex` | ActionParsnip, thanks | 03:43 |
| NamVet | EastDallas that's it adobe-flashplugin | 03:43 |
| volve | Hello, has anyone used mysql-proxy to separate logs for different databases? I'm having trouble figuring out how to... | 03:43 |
| Yakuzing | it can use amazon among others | 03:43 |

| NamVet | EastDallas i can show you the errors | 03:43 |
| ActionParsnip | EastDallas: ^ | 03:43 |
| ActionParsnip | EastDallas: try flashplugin-nonfree | 03:44 |
| EastDallas | NamVet. Boot to an Ubuntu install CD. Choose the option to try ubuntu without making any changes to your computer. You will boot to a desktop where you can use nautilus to move the files to your flash drive or usb hard drive. | 03:44 |
| Yakuzing | miked595, http://mp3tag.de/en/index.html | 03:44 |
| miked595 | I'll check it out.. thanks | 03:44 |

| Guest69189 | I can no longer view my server via SSH/Nautilus, when clicking on the bookmark or trying to connect manually (Via Places > Connect to server...) I get: "ssh program unexpectedly exited" | 03:47 |
| mazda01 | Krezlyn, you need to start up nautilus, that controls the desktop. hit alt-f2, then type in nautilus. hopefully that brings your right click back for your desktop | 03:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest69189: can you ping the server | 03:48 |
| Guest69189 | ActionParsnip: yes, the server runs fine, I can SSH via shell fine, just not via sftp | 03:48 |
| Krezlyn | will it auto start now? | 03:49 |
| Guest69189 | I'd rather not have to do all my file transfers via rsync/scp either ;/ | 03:49 |

| ActionParsnip | Scott1979: you could populate an xorg.conf file and manually set the resolution | 03:51 |
| Scott1979 | two cards two monitors | 03:51 |
| Scott1979 | can u go thru with me action populating the xorg.conf | 03:52 |

| webdawg | Are not the real ATI drivers better then the opensource? | 03:53 |
| webdawg | ls | 03:53 |
| ActionParsnip | webdawg: if its supported then try: www.ati.com | 03:53 |
| Scott1979 | not for the r530 chipset x1300-x1600 in karmix | 03:53 |
| ActionParsnip | webdawg: depends on the card | 03:53 |

| user47331 | Does anyone know about scrambled display using intel video on ubuntu 9.10? fedora works fine, but ubuntu has display problems. | 03:54 |
| Scott1979 | yes opensource driver gives me fiull opengl support so i like it | 03:54 |
| Scott1979 | im upgrading vid card soon | 03:54 |

| user47331 | anyone using intel onboard video with ubuntu 9.10? | 03:55 |
| christianpiper77 | join #zombiesquad | 03:55 |
| faileas | i have a custom install of ubuntu - xorg intel and its deps, icewm, xde and swiftfox. I'm trying to start a ssh forwarded session of swiftfox from another system - which has the plain vanilla firefox version in the repos- with ssh -x [ipaddress] and then starting swiftfox from command line. When i start it though, it opens up the local copy of firefox instead of the copy of swiftfox on the other box. Any ideas? | 03:56 |
| Krezlyn | can someone tell me how to mount the cd device, i have to mount the cd as root | 03:56 |
| christianpiper77 | Ack, this doesnt work like that.. sorry! New IRC client.... | 03:56 |
| ZaNeIuM | how do i check for running programs to use the kill command | 03:56 |
| christianpiper77 | Sorry all, bye now. | 03:56 |
| jarray52 | ZaNeluM: ps -e | 03:56 |
| faileas | user47331: yeah, it works perfectly with a intel x3100. I'm running a different, non standard config on a 855 gma too | 03:56 |
| Scott1979 | action this is my current xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/350227/ | 03:56 |
| faileas | ZaNeIuM: ps aux | grep somestring | 03:56 |
| ActionParsnip | ZaNeIuM: ps -ef | grep something | 03:56 |
| * ActionParsnip uses the linux standard :) | 03:57 | |
| Scott1979 | but i should be able to run both onbaord and pciexpress card at same time yes | 03:57 |
| faileas | then pick out the process number. If its an x programme, you can use xkill. Alternately htop has a nice cli interface for killing things | 03:57 |
| Scott1979 | i know i have my onboard turned off i should try | 03:57 |
| ranjan | hello every body can any body on this network can tell me in which directory usually the incomplete files are stored wile in the phase of downloading using Downloader for X | 03:57 |
| faileas | Scott1979: iirc, no, one at a time i think | 03:58 |
| isolat3dsh33p | bash question: Does, the semi-colon after break statement « break; » required? What's the purpose of it if it's not required? | 03:58 |

| webdawg | How do I find the model of my card | 03:58 |
| mkquist | anyone using a touchscreen with ubuntu? | 03:58 |
| ActionParsnip | webdawg: sudo lshw -C display | 03:58 |
| jarray52 | isolat3dsh33p: The semicolon separates distinct commands. You can type each and hit enter instead. | 03:58 |
| webdawg | I just did a lspci | 03:58 |
| webdawg | i think | 03:58 |
| webdawg | ATI Technologies Inc RV516 [Radeon X1300 Pro] | 03:59 |
| Scott1979 | yeah i have a rv530 x1600 | 03:59 |
| webdawg | What do you think ActionParsnip | 03:59 |
| ActionParsnip | webdawg: lshw gives you more info but: lspci | grep -i vga will tell you too | 03:59 |
| isolat3dsh33p | jarray52: thanks :) | 03:59 |
| webdawg | What driver should I use? | 03:59 |
| ActionParsnip | webdawg: check the ati site, its in the top right on the first page | 03:59 |
| webdawg | I am sure I could find the driver on the site. | 03:59 |
| webdawg | But the thing is should I just download and install? | 04:00 |
| webdawg | How do I revert back if it messes up something. | 04:00 |
| webdawg | ?? | 04:00 |
| Scott1979 | so if u using 9.10 karmic the xserver-xorg-video-ati driver is the only one that works it is the 9.3 catalyst driver made from xorg | 04:00 |

| xiong | Wine worked well enough for me. Now it seems to have lost track of its apps. Perhaps a reconfig-reinstall of some sort... | 04:42 |
| spursncowboys | Dr_Willis: yes. The best I can get is where all the windows will be on my hdtv and just the background on my monitor | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | snake: for grub2 you place a proper image in a location the configs look for. I think the grub2 wiki pages gives details. Its not too hard. | 04:42 |

| Dr_Willis | ray9na: clarify what you mean. by 'respect' | 04:43 |
| Blue1 | xiong: the day one problem is that you can't drag anything from one workspace to another | 04:43 |
| Blue1 | if you use metacity =- it works fine | 04:43 |
| snake | Dr_Willis: thanks | 04:43 |
| spursncowboys | Dr_Willis: Oh ok. Twin view. What do you mean by dragging windows? | 04:43 |
| xiong | Blue1, That is what I *can* do with Compiz. Not workspaces but something else, which is not clearly given a name. | 04:43 |
| Dr_Willis | spursncowboys: i drag a windoqw from monitor #1 to the right.. it then goes to monitor #2 here. | 04:44 |
| Dr_Willis | spursncowboys: my 2 monitors are one WIIIIIDDDEEEE desktop :) | 04:44 |
| ray9na | Dr_Willis: The problem is some dialogue boxes or other spawned windows that cannot be resized and are too tall for the screen, thus making it impossible to access very important bits (such as OK buttons) at the bottom. | 04:44 |
| Blue1 | xiong: well with compiz enabled and the mouse hovering over a work space it says click to start dragging - umm no that doesn't work... | 04:44 |

| Dr_Willis | ray9na: yep. thats an annoyance of having a short 'res' screen. You can alt-click and drag most of them Upward so you can get to the buittons | 04:45 |
| tpuc | its even wilder when the 2nd monitor is a 52incher on the living room wall :D | 04:45 |
| xiong | Blue1, That feature never worked for me but I'm able to drag windows directly. | 04:45 |
| Blue1 | xiong: no that's not what I am talking about -- you can't drag an item from one work space (desktop) to another | 04:45 |
| xiong | Directly as opposed to by proxy. | 04:45 |
| xiong | Blue1, It depends on how you set Desktop Size. See my last... | 04:46 |
| ray9na | Dr_Willis: But I can only drag until I get to the top of the screen, which doesn't give me much more access. Sometimes, it isn't enough. | 04:46 |
| Blue1 | xiong: to me workspace and desktop are synonomous terms -- | 04:46 |

| adarsha | Blue1: even i had thought that they're the same, but compiz seems to treat them differently. | 04:50 |
| Blue1 | adarsha: apparently so -- | 04:50 |

| grantbourque | is qt4 built into ubuntu 9.10? | 05:01 |
| snake | I know blue means its a directory | 05:01 |
| grantbourque | If I need to fetch it, where can I get it? | 05:01 |
| LJR | snake, green is an executable | 05:01 |
| Sabre-night | inferno_daulXEON, I disconnect from the internet fairly regularly with no notification, and when i browse on a virtual machine (XP) hosted from ubuntu aswell it has perfect internet connection, no random disconnect. | 05:01 |
| ZaNeIuM | what file browser? | 05:01 |
| inferno_daulXEON | webbb82: Can you do "sudo apt-get update --fix-broken" | 05:01 |
| LJR | ZaNeIuM, what's the issue bud? | 05:01 |

| inferno_daulXEON | Sabre-night: What network manager are you using? Are you using DHCP? Samba? How is your DNS set up | 05:03 |
| hanophix33 | I just installed boxee on karmic, opens but is very extremely slow | 05:03 |
| ZaNeIuM | LJR i was just wondering what the colors ment when you use the ls command | 05:04 |
| inferno_daulXEON | webbb82: try to open up Synaptic and clear out the bad keys. Then put the new ones in | 05:04 |
| inferno_daulXEON | webbb82: you know how to do that? | 05:04 |
| webbb82 | suya | 05:04 |
| LJR | ZaNeIuM, blue is a directory and green is an executable. | 05:04 |
| pure_hate | ZaNeIuM: the colors have to do with the kind of file | 05:04 |
| inferno_daulXEON | webbb82: thats not a word I'm familiar with | 05:04 |
| pure_hate | excecutable or directory | 05:04 |
| webbb82 | yes | 05:04 |
| Sabre-night | inferno_daulXEON, i don't know, i would assume whatever is set default on ubuntu 9.10 upon installation. and i don't know a thing about the dns, seeing as it's comcast's doing. | 05:04 |
| ZaNeIuM | the file is showing both | 05:04 |
| ZaNeIuM | green and blue | 05:05 |
| pure_hate | Thats not really possible | 05:05 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Sabre-night: Are you using DHCP or a Static IP? | 05:05 |
| LJR | ZaNeIuM, Linux doesn't depend on file extensions (.jpg, .doc, .txt) to tell it what the file is or contains. It uses other means. It lets us know with the colors. | 05:05 |
| Sabre-night | inferno_daulXEON, i believe static IP. | 05:05 |
| pure_hate | ls -la the file | 05:05 |
| ZaNeIuM | like this .thisisthefile | 05:05 |
| enhickman | snoopy_: my guess is when you start CS it auto changes your monitor to a refresh rate that is out of the range of your monitor | 05:05 |
| grantbourque | I don't know which qt4 package I should get | 05:05 |
| AndChat | With the colors? Explain | 05:06 |
| pure_hate | grantbourque: then how do you know you need it? | 05:06 |
| grantbourque | "For Mumble/Murmur 1.1.0 and greater (including SVN), Qt 4.3 is required. For Mumble 1.1.8 or newer, QT 4.4 is required." | 05:06 |
| inferno_daulXEON | webbb82: OK Try it out. After that if it doesn't work can you try to get the default sources.list | 05:06 |
| LJR | AndChat, you mean me? | 05:06 |
| hanophix33 | has anyone had success installing boxee on karmic? | 05:06 |
| Some_Person | something's wrong -- my whole file system is suddenly read-only. I tried to install the "devscripts" package, but something horribly went wrong. http://paste.ubuntu.com/350246/ | 05:06 |
| AndChat | LJR:Yes | 05:07 |
| hanophix33 | or is it better just to go after jaunty if i am doing a dedicated computer to run boxee | 05:07 |
| LJR | AndChat, I was speaking to ZaNeIuM. I was explaining why the CLI uses colors to tell us what files are/do. | 05:07 |
| EastDallas | ZaNeIuM: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/where-is-color-of-ls-command-defined.html | 05:07 |
| Some_Person | During the installation, I got a prompts (blue thing with things to select). It said something about how do you get your mail, and I chose the default option, which was website or something like that | 05:07 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Sabre-night: try setting up your static IP through the interfaces file.... heres how: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-networking-configuration-using-command-line.html | 05:07 |
| pure_hate | AndChat: generally red= archive blue = directory and green = executable | 05:07 |
| AndChat | Ok, I see | 05:08 |
| adarsha | hanophix33: is there a linux version of boxee available? | 05:08 |
| pure_hate | light blue is a symlink | 05:08 |
| inferno_daulXEON | On a side note :: MARVEL now officially belongs to DISNEY | 05:08 |
| LJR | pure_hate, isn't pink a symlink? | 05:08 |
| hanophix33 | adarsha: yes, not for karmic | 05:08 |
| LJR | inferno_daulXEON, Disney is Satan. True Fact | 05:08 |
| hanophix33 | but they have workarounds | 05:08 |
| pure_hate | LJR: think it may depend on term options as well | 05:09 |
| LJR | pure_hate, Gotcha | 05:09 |
| ray9na | Oh, for crying out loud! Nobody told me that when you ALT-click, you can click anywhere in the window, not just the titlebar! | 05:09 |
| inferno_daulXEON | LJR: Oh I know.... they are going to ruin everything. Then google is going to absorb them into skynet and use thier influence on children to destroy the human race | 05:09 |
| LJR | ray9na, what part of "grab window" was unclear??? o.O | 05:09 |
| Some_Person | anyone know how to fix this? | 05:09 |
| LJR | Some_Person, try to uninstall it? | 05:10 |
| ray9na | LJR: Because normally, to move a window you grab the title bar! | 05:10 |
| pure_hate | Some_Person: I fail to see any reason why your files are read only in this paste | 05:10 |
| pure_hate | how do you know they are read only? | 05:10 |
| * ray9na is so re-installing Jaunty tomorrow. Ugh. | 05:10 | |
| LJR | ray9na, ah, but you can just click them for that. When you hold a hotkey (mine is super) you can click anywhere. | 05:11 |
| AndChat | What can I do if I can't get one of my applications(tomboy) to open. Its be like that for days now. Even when I try in terminal it just gives me an error | 05:11 |
| LJR | *click the title bar | 05:11 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Some_Person: Backup, Reinstall, and don't do whateer you just did again... EVER | 05:11 |
| LJR | AndChat, sudo tomboy | 05:11 |
| Some_Person | pure_hate: well, for one thing, I can't create a file in my home directory | 05:11 |
| AndChat | I tried unistalling and reinstalling...no diff | 05:11 |
| pure_hate | AndChat: Giving the error is usually the best way to get a intelligent response | 05:11 |
| Some_Person | pure_hate: and xchat is complaining that it's read only | 05:11 |
| LJR | pure_hate, true, true | 05:11 |
| pure_hate | Some_Person: Have you checked the permissions | 05:11 |
| LJR | Some_Person, also, check your groups? | 05:12 |
| Some_Person | pure_hate: furthermore, "dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system" | 05:12 |
| enhickman | Some_Person: are you sure your disk is not full? | 05:12 |
| nagpai | i recently updated kernel and i think even grub. I am unable to see and mount my other partitions. Even my pendrive doesnt get detected | 05:12 |
| Some_Person | enhickman: it's not | 05:12 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Some_Person: You must have recursively changed permissions and it will be way easier to reinstall if you did it on the whole system | 05:12 |
| AndChat | LJR: I feel like an idiot now. It worked. But I neva had to use sudo for tomboy before | 05:12 |
| pure_hate | Sometimes if you mess as root in your home directory , root will take owner ship of the files | 05:12 |
| ray9na | Well, thanks, all. I have to work in the morning, so off I go. *mumble grumble one o' these days i'm gonna get something right on the first go* | 05:12 |
| LJR | AndChat, sudo = work or I kill you. | 05:12 |
| mneptok | Some_Person: sounds like / was mounted read-only | 05:12 |
| Some_Person | mneptok: In the middle of installing a package? | 05:13 |
| hanophix33 | anyone have a suggestion for a good media application less demanding than boxee | 05:13 |
| LJR | AndChat, please be careful using sudo or allowing applications root access tho. | 05:13 |
| pure_hate | Sounds to me like you just dont have write access | 05:13 |
| Some_Person | mneptok: I ran sudo apt-get install devscripts, and that's what broke it | 05:13 |
| pure_hate | but I am just a n00b | 05:13 |
| IdleOne | LJR: gksudo GUIAPP is recommended | 05:13 |
| inferno_daulXEON | mneptok: that doesn't happen unless you mess with fstab using a jackhammer and a pack of c4 | 05:13 |
| AndChat | Pure_hate: I would but I'm using my phone for irc and it would to much to use pastebin thru it | 05:13 |
| LJR | IdleOne, ? | 05:13 |
| LJR | pure_hate, you're alright. Don't go putting yourself down. | 05:13 |
| LJR | Some_Person, you have a LiveCD? | 05:14 |
| mneptok | inferno_daulXEON: incorrect. it can happen if the volume was not unmouted cleanly and errors are detected upon re-mounting. | 05:14 |
| IdleOne | LJR: when running a GUI application it is better to use gksudo instead of sudo | 05:14 |
| Some_Person | LJR: Not at the moment that supports my ext4 partition | 05:14 |
| AndChat | LJR: why be careful with sudo for apps? | 05:14 |
| LJR | IdleOne, I did not know that! Thanks for updating me! | 05:14 |
| LJR | Some_Person, That doesn't matter - do you have one? | 05:14 |
| Some_Person | LJR: I could probably dig one up | 05:14 |
| mneptok | Some_Person: you might want to boot off the install media and fsck your / partition | 05:14 |
| adarsha | hanophix33: yeah, i tried using apt-get for boxee, it gives an error: 'broken packages' i'l try some tweaks.. | 05:15 |
| AndChat | IdleOne: why gksudo instead for GUI? | 05:15 |
| LJR | AndChat, sudo is a powerful command. you can easily corrupt something using it. IdleOne suggest gksudo for guiapps. | 05:15 |
| LJR | Some_Person, load it and chroot into your FS and grant write access. | 05:15 |
| mneptok | AndChat: because that is what it is designed for. sudo is not. | 05:15 |
| Tiders | Whats a good program Icould use with a Wacom tablet for taking math notes | 05:15 |

| Some_Person | LJR: Shouldn't this be filed as like a major ubuntu bug? installing devscripts borks your FS? | 05:15 |
| pure_hate | Some_Person: can you write a file a s root? | 05:15 |
| EastDallas | Some_Person: have you checked your /etc/fstab for the 'ro' attribute? | 05:16 |
| Some_Person | pure_hate: No, I can't | 05:16 |
| AndChat | Mneptok: just don't know the difference. | 05:16 |
| Some_Person | EastDallas: Already checked fstab. It's fine. By the way, it suddenly went read-only in the middle of installing a package | 05:16 |
| LJR | Some_Person, can you please 1) Duplicate the problem and 2) provide step-by-step directions on how to dup. the problem so we can play with it and fix it? You need to cover that before you file a bug. | 05:16 |
| pure_hate | Some_Person: Best thing to do is chroot in with a live disc and clean up the mess that way | 05:16 |
| IdleOne | AndChat: you really shouldn't need to run any apps with sudo but in the case you do with graphical applications use gksudo as it is safer. exact reasons why I am not sure of but been told many times by more experienced users | 05:17 |

| LJR | pure_hate, right - Linux is powerful enough that you rarely need to completely reinstall over a gimped OS. | 05:19 |
| xiong | FWIW, I'm totally unable to get Compiz to come back after reboot; I just have to get it back manually and reset the virtual size each time. Good thing this is Linux and not windoz, so I only have to reboot about once a week. | 05:20 |
| LJR | I once used chroot off a live cd to find and remove viruses off of windows. =P | 05:20 |
| pure_hate | LJR: yeps, but most of the time people would rather reinstall than learn how their OS really works. | 05:20 |
| Scott1979 | what card u using xiong | 05:20 |
| Scott1979 | and have u tried to remeber apps running for reboot | 05:20 |
| LJR | pure_hate, well that's their irresponsibilty and immaturity showing. They need to go back to Windows. | 05:20 |
| faileas | LJR: actually, you can repair install most OSes. But... eh... sometimes starting afresh is easier | 05:21 |
| pure_hate | vick: Unfortuanly if you need something like visio linux is laking in that deoartment, if you just need to draw I recomend inkscape | 05:21 |

| vick | pure_hate, Thanks. | 05:22 |
| LJR | faileas, I always found repairing a gimped windows OS to be fairly difficult, depending on the situation of course. Anyway, back on topic! | 05:22 |
| xiong | Scott1979, Graphics card? Dunno; it's a laptop. I could go dig that up I suppose. This only started recently; I blame the Karmic upgrade. | 05:22 |
| faileas | LJR: i mostly work on windows boxes ;p. difference is really, I can trust my borked linux boxes to be my own fault ;p | 05:23 |
| pure_hate | mazda01: thats not the whole config | 05:23 |
| mazda01 | pure_hate, yes it is. you want the calander script? | 05:23 |
| LJR | faileas, lol! too true | 05:23 |
| xiong | Scott1979, As for remembering running apps, that's actually another problem. For some reason, Terminal and Firefox want to start after reboot, although I turned *off* 'Remember' and checked that they're not in the Startup Apps list. | 05:23 |
| xiong | Scott1979, Do you think I should stick something pertaining to Compiz into Startup Apps? | 05:24 |
| pure_hate | Wow, this is my first time in this channel and its a lot of work | 05:24 |
| mazda01 | pure_hate, there is no calander script that's right. that's the whole script | 05:24 |
| Scott1979 | maybe xiong | 05:24 |

| xiong | Scott1979, pure_hate, I'm going to try fusion-icon. It's pretty tedious troubleshooting this kind of issue, since I have to go through the reboot each time to see what results I get. I'll let you know how it goes. | 05:33 |
| HentaiWolf | ive got a server i want to install debian on a vm | 05:33 |
| HentaiWolf | but this cant reach the internet | 05:33 |

| HentaiWolf | i dont know why | 05:33 |
| pure_hate | dpkg --configure libio-stringy-perl | 05:33 |
| Scott1979 | sudo apt-get remove compiz | 05:34 |
| HentaiWolf | with the same config runs a windows machine | 05:34 |
| Scott1979 | sudo apt-get install compiz | 05:34 |
| HentaiWolf | and windows is in the internet | 05:34 |
| pure_hate | apt-get -f install will clean that up to I belive | 05:34 |
| kraitos | rad_sci_guy, actually i figured it out already. i installed samba and now i can see it. thanks for the help tho. | 05:34 |
| xiong | Scott1979, No offense but that seems like a shotgun approach. If I'm going to try that sort of thing, I may as well (as I'm contemplating anyway) double-burn my whole system and do a clean install. | 05:34 |
| Scott1979 | do u want me to post the website that recommends this shot gun approch | 05:35 |
| Scott1979 | xiong | 05:35 |

| BLOODCLAW | mister_roboto: nope | 05:46 |

| mister_roboto | TNA5000: you should find out what is doing such heavy logging and why. "du -sh /var/log/*" will show the size of the files and dirs at that level. usually you can truncate an individual file with "> [filename]" as long as the process isn't keeping the logfile open. logfiles are only as useful as the person looking at them for information :) | 06:01 |

| kisielk_home | I'm a bit confused about setting up DNS nameservers for a static IP configuration. The manual online says you should edit /etc/resolv.conf by hand. However, man resolver says you should put in 'dns-nameservers' options in /etc/network/interfaces | 06:03 |

| mister_roboto | Scott1979: 255.255.0.0 actually | 06:05 |
| Scott1979 | yeah well they are specific to the ip range | 06:05 |
| Scott1979 | not always just one | 06:05 |
| bdelin88 | how would i go about searching through a specific text file (command line), i need to find where the options for 'mcrypt' are. i know which file it's in, i just need to search within only that file. | 06:05 |
| unop | HentaiWolf, do you know what IP address range is given to you for use with your servers? | 06:06 |
| unop | HentaiWolf, 94.23.167.60 / 255.255.255.255 would indicate only one | 06:06 |
| HentaiWolf | i got 4 ips | 06:06 |
| HentaiWolf | 1 is for the basic system | 06:07 |
| unop | HentaiWolf, and which address is that? | 06:07 |
| HentaiWolf | the gateway for the win server | 06:07 |
| HentaiWolf | is the main server | 06:07 |
| Scott1979 | mister_roboto u are still sorta wrong | 06:07 |
| unop | bdelin88, grep? | 06:07 |
| faileas | bdelin88: grep maybe? | 06:07 |
| aanderse | doesn't tango icon theme exist anymore? | 06:08 |
| Scott1979 | 10.0.0.0 is 255.0.0.0 | 06:08 |
| mister_roboto | Scott1979: a network address of 192.168.0.0 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 makes no sense | 06:08 |
| unop | mister_roboto, actually it does :) | 06:08 |
| Scott1979 | ok go here smart dude | 06:09 |
| Scott1979 | http://www.subnet-calculator.com/subnet.php?net_class=C | 06:09 |
| TNA5000 | mister_roboto: thanks, this is helpfull. Well it looks like /var/log/messages is at 13GB there are other /varlog/messages.#.gz files that are several Megs. /var/logs/syslogs is at 5GB and /var/log/user.log is 30G. Why are those logs so very large? | 06:09 |
| mister_roboto | Scott1979: scratch that, you're right | 06:09 |

| mister_roboto | Scott1979: lol | 06:09 |
| Scott1979 | i am not a networking server admin for nothing | 06:10 |
| mister_roboto | Scott1979: but the non-routable network is 192.168 /16 | 06:10 |
| anon_ | #kismet | 06:10 |
| mister_roboto | Scott1979: specifying a /24 subnet doesn't really add value on a home network | 06:10 |
| unop | mister_roboto, err, 192.168.0.0/16 is still routable - just not on the public internet by virtue of policy | 06:10 |
| Scott1979 | go over your issue in pm mister | 06:10 |
| HentaiWolf | http://666kb.com/i/bfh3r1waipj96en4q.gif | 06:10 |
| mister_roboto | unop: that's what i mean, publicly | 06:10 |
| HentaiWolf | here a picture of the win machine | 06:10 |
| Scott1979 | yes you are using local ip | 06:10 |
| mister_roboto | unop: of course it's routable on a local segment | 06:10 |
| phaer | I encrypted my ubuntus home folder with encfs per ubuntu installer. Now i want to mount it with encfs command from my archlinux install. "encfs /mnt/.ecryptfs/phaer[.ecryptfs] /mnt/phaer" offers my to create a new container... | 06:11 |
| anon_ | anyone good with kismet here? | 06:11 |
| unop | mister_roboto, my ISP has those addresses in the core of its network tho | 06:11 |
| mister_roboto | unop: otherwise tcp/ip wouldn't work :) | 06:11 |
| unop | mister_roboto, not true | 06:11 |
| Scott1979 | go to my private chat pm | 06:11 |

| jiraaya | i have debian 5.0 . kernel version is 2.6.26.1-686 . My netowrk card is not detected. output of lspci - 01:00.0 Realtek Semicondutor Co,, ltd Device 8119 (rev 10). | 06:11 |
| anon_ | anyone? | 06:12 |
| m0se5 | the answer was in ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde4 | 06:12 |
| mister_roboto | unop: it's fine in the core, just not fine to route them over any public router | 06:12 |
| unop | mister_roboto, that's a contradiction in itself :) but anyway, it's offtopic here | 06:13 |
| anon_ | anyone understand kismet at all? | 06:13 |
| mister_roboto | unop: what's the contradiction? | 06:14 |
| faileas | jiraaya: debian is not ubuntu. you'd want to try that | 06:14 |
| mister_roboto | unop: if a public facing router is forwarding 192.168 addrs, it's broken | 06:14 |
| faileas | mister_roboto: gah, the faster we move to IPV6, the better | 06:14 |
| Tiders | Is it wrong to switch to root like one would in CentOS or Fedora instead of using sudo | 06:15 |
| mister_roboto | unop: i would appreciate it if you tell where the contradiction is. i'm genuinely curious what you mean | 06:16 |
| unop | mister_roboto, a router on the core of an ISP network is a public router | 06:16 |
| ribot | hi | 06:16 |
| roracle | hey there | 06:16 |
| m0se5 | Tiders, just use sudo -s instead of enabling the root account. | 06:17 |
| mister_roboto | unop if your isp is forwarding 192.168 address traffic to anywhere outside its own private network, they have a serious problem | 06:17 |
| unop | mister_roboto, this ISP uses private address ranges to support the routing infrastructure - but uses tunnelling/MPLS on top of that to forward IP | 06:17 |
| Tiders | m0se5, Well I was using sudo -i usually | 06:17 |
| roracle | i'm having a bit of trouble guys: audio is not working at all on this fresh install of ubuntu. it is a computer at my workplace and my boss really wants to get to know how to use it, but the lack of sound makes it unattractive. where do i start and how do i go about fixing this issue? | 06:18 |
| roracle | oh yeah, it's ubuntu 9.10, btw. latest and greatest? | 06:19 |
| roracle | 32 bit | 06:19 |
| user6 | yul | 06:19 |
| roracle | i guess i really should put all that into one big question | 06:20 |
| jan247 | hi guys, what's the easiest way to tell if a port is open on some machine. i tend to use telnet HOST PORT but I don't really need to send anything | 06:20 |
| mister_roboto | unop; these rules are pretty explicity in rfc 1918 | 06:20 |
| pure_hate | jan247: netstat -tap | grep "port number" | 06:21 |
| pure_hate | To access this dialog, open the desktop System menu, select Preferences and click on Remote Desktop. When selected the following window will appear: | 06:21 |
| roracle | Sound is not working in Ubuntu 9.10 32bit OR 64bit (neither worked). I installed this on a computer at work (Dell Optiplex 330) and everything works beautifully except this one issue. | 06:21 |
| pure_hate | oops | 06:21 |
| Athar | roracle: if it's an option for you, you could try 9.04, as I heard from a few people that they had audio problems after switching to 9.10 | 06:22 |
| hanasaki | where is the default app for movie player set? | 06:23 |
| ribot | my running windows dont show in taskbar, can i make them show up? | 06:23 |
| jan247 | pure_hate: looking for something that may connect to a remote machine | 06:23 |
| roracle | Athar: is there a way to install 9.04 with Wubi? Will I need an older version of Wubi? | 06:23 |
| === tavish__ is now known as tavish | ||
| WireWulf | this distro still sucks | 06:24 |
| unop | mister_roboto, sure, but ask yourself how its network converges when there's an upset in the routing domain - it has to forward routes contained within this private network (but only to routers in its domain). In anycase, it doesn't violate RFC1918 or upset any of its customers private networks by doing this. | 06:24 |
| unop | anyway, offtopic nonsense | 06:25 |
| Athar | roracle: I've never used Wubi, but I assume you'll need the 9.04 version | 06:25 |
| m0se5 | Tiders, ya, your right. that's even more the root user because it'll load up the environment variables of the root user if it can. sudo -s just executes the default shell as root. (/bin/bash maybe?) It's used for using sudo over and over without actually switching to the root user. | 06:25 |
| mister_roboto | unop: yes, yes, i agree with all that. i thought the only point was PUBLIC routing. it's not entirely off topic considering the issues raised earlier. and i don't think we're actually disagreeing | 06:26 |

| Nicekiwi9 | so it'll be "192.168.1.70 sex.ff" | 06:31 |

| sevol | Nicekiwi9, oh yea you are right | 06:33 |
| hanasaki | m0se5: thanks | 06:33 |
| Nicekiwi9 | the file wont hav an extestion, just open it with notepad and save it without th extention, depending on ur windows version u may need admin rights to edit that file | 06:34 |
| hanasaki | Izinucs: thanks.. umm so ubuntu cannot play a DVD by default? | 06:34 |
| sevol | Nicekiwi9, i just remember about taht yea there sohuld be an example | 06:34 |

| Izinucs | bullgard: sorry.. where'd you get that idea.. synaptic is complete and uses apt-get to install typically.. Add/Remove available in some release doesn't have a full list | 06:38 |
| Nicekiwi9 | sevol: no worries xD Movies time w00p w00p! xD | 06:38 |

| ShazbotMcNasty | does gparted run in RAM? | 06:44 |
| bullgard | e-i-k-e: Well, then your last message to the whole #ubuntu audience was incomplete. | 06:44 |
| fumanchu182 | With 9.10 has anyone had ATI video card issues. I have DVI->HDMI connection and it reports it as a projector. I cannot fix the underscan and find the HDTV support options from the driver. Has this been seen before? | 06:44 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | Because I need to reformat my flash drive, but gparted is ON the flash drive | 06:45 |
| lstarnes | ShazbotMcNasty: of course it runs in ram | 06:45 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | so if it was not in RAM, I don't believe that'd be possible | 06:45 |
| m0se5 | Tonren, Pulse | 06:45 |
| lstarnes | ShazbotMcNasty: almot all applications do | 06:45 |
| lstarnes | *almost | 06:45 |
| hookah | Tonren, are you missing sound on all flash? | 06:45 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | lstarnes, well I'd be running gparted live | 06:45 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | from the usb... | 06:45 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | lstarnes, I recognise your nick.... | 06:45 |
| lstarnes | ShazbotMcNasty: the application itself would run from ram | 06:46 |
| faileas | ShazbotMcNasty: you could always partition from the installer | 06:46 |
| constantine | I need to use my dual boot to delete a file in windows while in ubuntu - how can I do this? | 06:46 |
| lstarnes | ShazbotMcNasty: there might be an option in gparted live's bootloader to copy the disk to ram first | 06:46 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | nvm I'll just use a disk | 06:46 |
| Tonren | hookah: No... I can play on Last.fm's player, and I think that's flash. | 06:46 |
| LJR | constantine, chroot | 06:46 |
| Tonren | m0se5: What exactly is the difference? If I'm supposed to use pulse, why is alsa even installed? | 06:47 |
| lstarnes | LJR: a chroot is overkill for that | 06:47 |
| m0se5 | Tonren, try sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin | 06:47 |
| LJR | lstarnes, always use a cannon to shoot bunnies. That way you know they're dead. | 06:47 |
| lstarnes | constantine: all you need to do is mount the windows partition then find the file and delete it | 06:47 |
| lstarnes | LJR: chrooting into windows won't work well | 06:47 |
| === plustax is now known as plustax2 | ||
| constantine | lstarnes how do you mount it? | 06:48 |
| self | or you can use the filemanager to mount the drive and delete the file that wasy | 06:48 |
| e-i-k-e | bullgard: sorry, i did not repeat the complete question because i thought that annoy other people here | 06:48 |
| LJR | lstarnes, your suggestion is better. I'm just being kind of silly tonight. | 06:48 |
| faileas | LJR: no such thing as overkill, only fire and reload? ;p | 06:48 |

| lstarnes | !ntfs-3g | constantine | 06:48 |
| ubottu | constantine: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 06:48 |
| domo | is ntfs support still risky with linux? can it damage the ntfs volume at all? | 06:49 |
| lstarnes | domo: it can still cause damage, but it works very well. I've never had any issues with it | 06:49 |
| e-i-k-e | bullgard: i would nautilus like to display the sizes in MB more accurate (e.g. 3 decimal places) | 06:49 |
| self | domo: it can only if you delete system files | 06:49 |
| lstarnes | domo: just make sure that you use ntfs-3g instead of the drivers that are built into the kernel | 06:50 |
| Athar | Isn't ntfs-3g installed by default on Ubuntu? | 06:50 |
| m0se5 | Tonren, that's a funny question because of how Linux is developed with everyone reinventing the wheel and screaming "do it my way or I'll fork." to each other... the sound in Linux is just starting to come around, I hope. | 06:50 |

| fumanchu182 | Well I just installed to 9.10, ATI drivers seem just as useless as ever. Has anyone had this issue: Your HDTV is seen as a projector and not as a actual LCD where you can do underscanning/overscanning fixes? | 06:50 |

| self | FD_F: then install firefox | 06:50 |
| lstarnes | constantine: sudo | 06:50 |
| Tonren | m0se5: I'd love to know more about it, but I don't know where to start. It feels stupid to blindly hammer on mpd.conf and restart alsa-utils/pulseaudio, but I don't know where I can go to figure out how everything fits together. | 06:50 |

| constantine | lstarnes: typed sudo and there was only one package manager open | 06:51 |
| fumanchu182 | m0se5: I did, I installed them from the ATI website. | 06:52 |
| lstarnes | constantine: you need to close it before you can use apt-get | 06:52 |
| lstarnes | constantine: apt-get counts as a package manager | 06:52 |
| e-i-k-e | bullgard: okay. thanks... now i need somebody who recompiles nautilus for me ^^ | 06:52 |
| FD_F | self: firefox installed.. i think 3.5 not the default broswer thats seems the problem : i tried sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser | 06:52 |
| fumanchu182 | Is there a different version of the flgrx driver than the one ATI provides m0se5 ? | 06:52 |
| constantine | lstarnes: I'm using terminal only | 06:52 |
| m0se5 | fumanchu182, have a look at this then. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI | 06:52 |
| lstarnes | oops. | 06:52 |
| kbp | I have installed unrar and I have 3 file *.001 .002 .003, how to join them? | 06:53 |
| m0se5 | Tonren, Do you have any sound at all? | 06:53 |
| fumanchu182 | m0se5: Okay I will give it a try, I will uninstall the driver that I downloaded from ATI and give this a whirl, be back in a bit. | 06:53 |
| shoeunited | Hey there, I'll be quick, is there any easy shortcut (commandline or otherwise) to install all the dev packages related to the packages you already have installed? *-dev obviously wouldn't be best. | 06:53 |
| Tonren | m0se5: Yeah. The "ba-da-bump" sound plays when I try to quit Firefox, I got sound to play on last.fm, and I got sound to play on mpd... somehow. It isn't working anymore. | 06:53 |
| bullgard | e-i-k-e: If you pay him well, you will certainly find someone to do it. -- Ubuntu provides alternative programs which show the value more precisely. | 06:53 |
| Athar | kbp: cat file.001 file.002 etc. > joinedfile.rar | 06:54 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: I don't think you need to recompile nautilus to do what you are trying to do | 06:54 |
| shoeunited | sweet | 06:54 |
| faileas | shoeunited: you shoulsn't need dev packages unless you're gonna compile | 06:54 |
| faileas | in which case.. i think apt has a dependacies function | 06:54 |
| kbp | Athar: the files are abc.avi.001 abc.avi.002 etc. | 06:54 |
| m0se5 | Tonren, I could help you but I think the gurus over in ##linux would be way better then I. | 06:54 |
| CodeTBone | !mount > CodeTBone | 06:55 |
| ubottu | CodeTBone, please see my private message | 06:55 |
| Tonren | m0se5: They won't eat me alive, will they? | 06:55 |
| Athar | kbp: Yeah, just change the name | 06:55 |
| shoeunited | faileas: Right, but I've got a friend who's heavy into wanting to learn all and he seems to want all the devs. I figured I'd pop in here and see for him. | 06:55 |
| hookah | what port is generally used for smb? | 06:55 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: what is ur idea? | 06:55 |
| faileas | shoeunited: he needs to install what he needs, when he needs it | 06:55 |
| shoeunited | He's majoring in CS. | 06:55 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: you're trying to get nautilus to display more digits in file sizes, right? | 06:55 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: exactly | 06:56 |
| Guest18066 | getting error -22 no user name specified when trying to mount an nfs share any ideas???????? | 06:56 |
| m0se5 | Tonren, They're great. | 06:56 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: where exactly is it showing only partial sizes? | 06:56 |
| Tonren | m0se5: Thanks! I'll holler at them. | 06:56 |
| kbp | Athar: it works! thank you | 06:57 |
| self | you need to be root | 06:57 |
| self | when mounting file systems | 06:57 |
| HentaiWolf | unop still there? | 06:57 |
| shoeunited | Well, thanks for trying faileas | 06:57 |
| ribot | i have written an python app, which i want to put in the applications menu: how? | 06:57 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2809935/screenshot_008.png | 06:57 |
| lstarnes | ribot: write a .desktop file for it and put it in /usr/share/applications | 06:58 |
| m0se5 | shoeunited, when compiling code, the output of the ./configure usually tells you what dev's are needed on the case basis. | 06:58 |
| lstarnes | ribot: or manually edit the menu entries | 06:58 |
| lstarnes | ribot: you can do that through system > preferences > main menu | 06:58 |
| gotsanity_ | is there any quick command to see if composting is enabled? | 06:58 |
| constantine | ubuntu keeps saying "unable to mount volume" is there another way to do this? | 06:58 |
| lstarnes | constantine: how are you trying to mount it? | 06:58 |
| moszer | hello everyone, im using karmic kaola, latest ubuntu, im trying to open one of the system as a root, usually with linux i just right click then i open as root, but i cant seems to open as a root with ubuntu, can anyone help me, im new | 06:58 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: does it happen when using a different locale or language? | 06:59 |
| ribot | lstarnes a .desktop file is named app.desktop, or only .desktop. and it is this file i put in /usr/share/applicaions ? | 06:59 |
| lstarnes | ribot: no | 06:59 |
| lstarnes | ribot: app-name.desktop | 06:59 |
| lstarnes | ribot: yes, put it in /usr/share/applications/ | 06:59 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: never tried other languages than german | 06:59 |
| misteralexander | Can I get help with Amarok here, or is there a special channel? | 06:59 |
| moszer | how to open file as a root? | 06:59 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: it might be a translation issue | 06:59 |
| domo | if i would like to develop an application for ubuntu.. what's the most popular lang/toolset to use? python? | 07:00 |
| constantine | lstarnes: through filesystem, then it says you can't mount it | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | domo: c/c++ with gtk | 07:00 |
| ubuntu | hello | 07:00 |
| self | moszer: sudo 'filename' no quoats | 07:00 |
| * Church guesses that amarok issues are better asked in #kubuntu | 07:00 | |
| lstarnes | constantine: try logging out then back in | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | self, moszer: that is not correct | 07:00 |
| constantine | no change, it did this earlier too | 07:00 |
| supremearyal | gotsanity_: ps -e | grep compiz | 07:00 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: do u know a language where it is displayed more exactly? | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | moszer: to open a file in a text editor, alt+f2 then enter gksudo gedit filename | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | moszer: or just gksudo gedit | 07:01 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: I haven't had that problem with the english versions | 07:01 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: you might want to file a bug report | 07:01 |
| macman_ | hi all .. if i do a lame --decode *.mp3 *.wav .. will that change all mp3's to wave each song or will it do one mass change ? | 07:01 |
| constantine | lstarnes: the ntfs-config tool asks for a mount point but I am not sure what to enter | 07:01 |
| Khalon | Can you guys join #sea and help somebody with their configuration problems? | 07:02 |
| ribot | lstarnes: the question then is what to write in this file.. | 07:02 |
| lstarnes | Khalon: we're busy enough with this channel | 07:02 |
| lstarnes | ribot: read the existing desktop files for examples | 07:02 |
| lstarnes | constantine: you need to make one first | 07:02 |
| Khalon | !ops lstarnes Trolling | 07:02 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 07:02 |
| lstarnes | constantine: try sudo mkdir /media/windows | 07:02 |
| edbian | Khalon, He isn't trolling | 07:03 |
| dt3k | how can I display my /var/log/syslog in a terminal in realtime? | 07:03 |
| self | constantine: cd /media sudo mkdir windir | 07:03 |
| faileas | dt3k: tail i think | 07:03 |
| lstarnes | constantine: try sudo mkdir /media/windows | 07:03 |
| lstarnes | constantine: then use that directory as the mount point | 07:03 |
| self | constantine: use this as your mount point | 07:03 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: do u know how to start nautilus in other languages or do i need to reinstall it? | 07:03 |
| lstarnes | constantine: when you're done, use sudo umount /media/windows then sudo rmdir /media/windows (only do the last one if you want to delete the mount point) | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: it uses whicever language you were using when you logged in | 07:04 |
| self | ya what lstarnes said | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: it sounds like you should at least file a bug report for your language's version of nautilus | 07:04 |
| Church | lstames: out of curiosity, why use rmdir instead of rm -r? | 07:05 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: okay, i will do so | 07:05 |
| Guest18066 | getting error -22 no user name specified when trying to mount an nfs share any ideas???????? | 07:05 |
| CodeTBone | Hey is it possible to mount my Karmic filesystem if im using a liveCD of Feisty (7.04)? | 07:05 |
| edbian | Church, rmdir removes the file, rm -r removes the contents of the folder | 07:05 |
| dt3k | faileas, like tail -v /var/log/syslog & | 07:05 |
| dt3k | ? | 07:05 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, ext3 or ext4 ? | 07:05 |
| moszer | im trying to copy OSX fonts into it, can anyone teach me how? | 07:05 |
| m0se5 | macman_, you'll need to use --> for file in *.mp3; do; lame --decode $file; done; | 07:05 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: what filesystem are you using in karmic? | 07:05 |
| Church | edbian: well, it's done after umount anyway, so no contents? | 07:05 |
| faileas | dt3k: prolly tail -f /var/log/syslog & | 07:06 |
| reactor | guys if I mount new hdd as /home, will the system delete the contents of it or of folder with my username? | 07:06 |
| CodeTBone | To be honest not sure, default, curiousity: How can I check? | 07:06 |
| faileas | er | 07:06 |
| faileas | no and | 07:06 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: check your /etc/fstab in karmic | 07:06 |
| m0se5 | reactor, /home needs to be empty | 07:06 |
| Church | reactor: if you mount on non empty directory, then subcontent of it will still be there, just hidden untill umount. | 07:07 |
| ribot | lstarnes yet it doesnt show up in add/remove | 07:07 |
| edbian | Church, That's right, but rm -r will leave the parent folder. rmdir deletes the parent folder. you can put stuff into the file while nothing is mounted in there but it is inaccessible while something is mounted in there. (maybe you can't mount things in a non empty folder) | 07:07 |
| lstarnes | ribot: that's because add/remove only handles some packages from the repositories | 07:07 |
| reactor | Church, so need I backup to another hdd? | 07:07 |
| constantine | lstarnes: so they're mounted. and they're empty - there is no data from windows there | 07:07 |
| Tonren | m0se5: Natch... they told me to ask here. ;-) | 07:07 |
| Church | reactor: if you want to transfer that content to new hdd first mount it somewhere else, then move over to new filesystem, then mount it on /home | 07:07 |
| edbian | reactor, Church /home needs to be empty? what? | 07:08 |
| ribot | lstarnes: so where then will it appear after adding this file? | 07:08 |
| CodeTBone | What should I be looking for? fstab is all the mount points....its mounted at '/' like normal if thats what you nee | 07:08 |
| lstarnes | ribot: in the menu somwehere | 07:08 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: it should also tell you the filesystem types | 07:08 |
| macman_ | none of it worked | 07:08 |
| fumanchu182 | m0se5: The install on the wiki page worked just fine. It is odd that installing it that way vs. the ATI/AMD way have two different results. Thanks now and it looks proper. | 07:08 |
| macman_ | they are still mp3's | 07:08 |
| ribot | lstarnes: will i need to update the menu somehow? | 07:08 |
| CodeTBone | Oh my bad....ext4 | 07:08 |
| lstarnes | ribot: it should update automatically | 07:08 |
| CodeTBone | Its so far over because of the UUID I missed it | 07:09 |
| reactor | edbian, my files are already there but not whole home (without my settings) | 07:09 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: 7.04 only goes up to ext3 | 07:09 |
| Church | edbian: i just told him that mounting new disk on folder will leave old content there, just hidden. not that mounting needs for folder to be empty | 07:09 |
| m0se5 | fumanchu182, cool? | 07:09 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: you need at least 9.04 for ext4 | 07:09 |
| edbian | Church, Oh ok, gotcha | 07:09 |
| plustax | guys | 07:09 |
| plustax | my wireless doesnt work on my laptop. running 9.10 | 07:09 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: it might be possible to mount ext4 as ext3, but I don't know how safe that would be | 07:09 |
| gotsanity_ | I installed cairo-dock on my desktop and my laptop. My desktop loads the themes with transparency just fine (on a nvidia card) and the same theme on my laptop (with an ati card) isnt displaying the transparencies, any ideas? | 07:09 |
| CodeTBone | K...not possible. How bout mounting an external NTFS drive? | 07:09 |
| LJR | plustax, card model? | 07:10 |
| plustax | someone tried to help me get my vnc working by forcing the ports to 5910 | 07:10 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: it might be able to do that | 07:10 |
| fumanchu182 | m0se5: yeah just had to change one of the menu items to gksu, since gksu the amdxdg-su command could not be found, and even gksu is not working so i just sudo amdcccle from the terminal | 07:10 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, That you should be able to do with the ntfs-3g module | 07:10 |
| m0se5 | fumanchu182, amd bought ati and I think they don't put very much time into linux driver development... just a guess. | 07:10 |
| plustax | it was working 5 minutes ago, not its not. My other computer wireless works, but now that the guy changed it I cant get on wireless with this laptop | 07:10 |
| plustax | ljr ^ | 07:10 |
| Church | ext4 can be mounted as ext3 if some of new ext4 features were not used. | 07:10 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: however, if your ext4 partition uses extents, it can't be donw | 07:10 |
| lstarnes | *done | 07:10 |
| Athar | CodeTBone: just plug it in, in the standard configuration it'll automount the drive. | 07:10 |
| fumanchu182 | m0se5: bet they use linux to build their processors though, lawls... | 07:10 |
| Church | i don't recall specifics, but prolly ext4 documentation covers that | 07:10 |
| CodeTBone | Thats what I thought but I couldnt seem to get it to work becuase its just a LIveCD any changes are stored in volatile memory and just gets removed | 07:11 |
| constantine | it said I should see the mount point on my desktop but I don't, its just in media/ - which has nothing in it | 07:11 |
| constantine | media/windows is empty | 07:11 |
| edbian | Athar, It's an old ubuntu live disc. CodeTBone Just download the newer ubuntu iso and burn it | 07:11 |
| lstarnes | constantine: /media/windows? | 07:11 |
| m0se5 | fumanchu182, I do lots of things for the lulz | 07:11 |
| lstarnes | constantine: what command did you use for mounting? | 07:11 |
| CodeTBone | edbian: Wont work in this situation, its a LiveCD that came with a book with preformatted software on it and I have to use it | 07:12 |
| fumanchu182 | m0se5: hehe, well i am back on ubunut after a long time, been in the OSX world, hopefully ubuntu is mature enough now that I can use it as a development tool, gotta love those lamp stacks. | 07:12 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, oic :( | 07:12 |
| prince | hello | 07:13 |
| LJR | Hello! | 07:13 |
| edbian | prince, Hi! :) | 07:13 |
| constantine | I used sudo mkdir /media/windows and then I went to the ntfs configuration tool and typed /media/windows - and then went to the folder.../media/windows and its empty | 07:13 |
| m0se5 | fumanchu182, I moved to Linux in 2001 and haven't looked back. | 07:13 |
| CodeTBone | But when I plug in my external while on the CD nothing happens, adding an entry to fstab doesnt help either | 07:13 |
| LJR | !hi | prince | 07:13 |
| ubottu | prince: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 07:13 |
| e-i-k-e | lstarnes: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2809935/screenshot_009.png from the english login | 07:13 |
| lstarnes | e-i-k-e: it's probably a bug with your language then | 07:14 |
| fumanchu182 | I have been on and off, I am on Windows 7 as my main only because I play way too much warcraft and crysis. Can't get them to function quite right under wine on Hardy Heron. | 07:14 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, fstab is read at boot or when you run the mount command pertaining to one of its entries not continuously | 07:14 |
| prince | wat's the difference between ordinary version and ultimate edition? | 07:14 |
| edbian | prince, Of what... ? | 07:14 |
| prince | in ubuntu | 07:14 |
| macman_ | guys the for commands didn't work | 07:14 |
| CodeTBone | I know, so the problem I was saying is that fstab doesnt help because its a LiveCD its only volatile memory and is deleted when I reboot to try and mount again | 07:14 |
| edbian | prince, ubuntu ultimate is a separate distro (based on ubuntu) but together by a less professional group than ubuntu | 07:15 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, Is this regarding mounting ext4 ? | 07:15 |
| m0se5 | fumanchu182, I don't game at all but playonlinux, cygwin and steam all work apparently. | 07:15 |
| prince | thank u....... | 07:15 |
| CodeTBone | Yeah, or NTFS | 07:15 |
| edbian | prince, Any other questions? | 07:15 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, Do you know the name of the partition with NTFS on it? | 07:16 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, If yes tell me it | 07:16 |
| CodeTBone | Yeah | 07:16 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, tell me it... | 07:16 |
| prince | fumanchu182:wat version y r using/ | 07:16 |
| constantine | lstarnes: I used sudo mkdir /media/windows and then I went to the ntfs configuration tool and typed /media/windows - and then went to the folder.../media/windows and its empty | 07:16 |
| CodeTBone | One se | 07:16 |
| d35iboy | Hi all | 07:16 |
| CodeTBone | /dev/sdb1 | 07:16 |
| fumanchu182 | prince: english? I am on 9.10 (Karmic) right now. | 07:16 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, do you have a folder to mount it in? | 07:16 |
| CodeTBone | Yeah | 07:17 |
| prince | ebdian,i have a problem when shutting down? | 07:17 |
| CodeTBone | /media/FreeAgent | 07:17 |
| lstarnes | constantine: what /dev node is used by the windows partition? | 07:17 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, "sudo mount /path/to/folder /dev/sdb1" | 07:17 |
| === chas is now known as Upside | ||
| edbian | CodeTBone, You might have to use "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /path/to/folder /devsdb1" | 07:17 |
| CodeTBone | I can mount it fine in Karmic but I cant mount it on the LiveCD | 07:17 |
| constantine | lstarnes: I don't know | 07:17 |
| kinja-sheep | prince: Are you on Ubuntu Ultimate Edition? | 07:17 |
| d35iboy | http://paste.ubuntu.com/350281/ | 07:17 |
| lstarnes | constantine: what partition is it on? | 07:17 |
| d35iboy | please help | 07:17 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, Does it give you any errors as to why? | 07:17 |
| prince | ok prince i am in hurry i will continue within half an hour from another name as nandu20........... | 07:17 |
| constantine | lstarnes: I don't know its been a long time | 07:18 |
| CodeTBone | I believe there was one | 07:18 |
| lstarnes | d35iboy: can you provide us with more details? | 07:18 |
| CodeTBone | Im in karmic right now, if you give me a minute ill boot the cd real quick | 07:18 |
| d35iboy | when I start ubuntu it comes | 07:18 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, Do you remember what is was regarding? I suspect that the ntfs-3g module wasn't loaded in which case you can try "sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g" and then the mount commands | 07:18 |
| d35iboy | lstarnes: when I start ubuntu ..this comes http://paste.ubuntu.com/350281/ | 07:18 |
| lstarnes | constantine: once you find out, use sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdXY /media/windows (X=disk (such as a or b), Y=partition number) | 07:19 |
| prince | yeah i also got the same fault.i have posted a querry soon i will get reply........ | 07:19 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, I don't think you're going to be able to mount the ext4 partition | 07:19 |
| lstarnes | d35iboy: what version of ubuntu are you using? | 07:19 |
| d35iboy | lstarnes: 9.10 | 07:19 |
| lstarnes | d35iboy: when did you start getting this error? | 07:19 |
| CodeTBone | Right, but when I reboot all the volatile memory is cleared, so am I just gona have to rinse,wash,repeat each time I need it? | 07:19 |
| CodeTBone | Im fine not mounting ext4 | 07:20 |
| d35iboy | installed ubuntu 15 days ago.. | 07:20 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, yeah you will have to run the commands everytime (including install ntfs-3g) | 07:20 |
| d35iboy | it will fine..now its coming | 07:20 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: there might be a way to save it to a disk | 07:20 |
| edbian | lstarnes, Really? | 07:20 |
| CodeTBone | Please enlighten me :P | 07:20 |
| d35iboy | Lstarnes: just recently..it will working good | 07:20 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: I recall some livecds having the ability to save settings to a flash drive | 07:21 |
| Upside | I'm having a weird issue with livecd it hangs at the ISOLINUX screen | 07:21 |
| CodeTBone | Right, I dont think that this was formatted to be able to save when it was created | 07:21 |
| lstarnes | d35iboy: I'm not sure exactly how to fix it | 07:21 |
| constantine | how do I find which partition is which in ubuntu? | 07:21 |
| hanasaki | playing a dvd I am getting some music audio track however no voice audio... how ot get the voices? | 07:21 |
| edbian | lstarnes, puppy linux does for sure. I don't know if ubuntu has that capability yet though | 07:21 |
| Upside | constantine type mount in the terminal | 07:21 |
| edbian | constantine, "sudo fdisk -l" | 07:21 |
| CodeTBone | I could be wrong, but thats my guess with a commercialised disc | 07:22 |
| plustax | can anyone help me to get my wireless working on my laptop here? Im running ubuntu 9.10 | 07:22 |
| lstarnes | d35iboy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 might have something useful | 07:22 |
| d35iboy | thanks | 07:22 |
| plustax | can anyone help me to get my wireless working on my laptop here? Im running ubuntu 9.10 | 07:23 |
| CodeTBone | Should I boot to the CD and just try right now and we can work it from there? | 07:23 |
| plustax | whoops sorry thought I got disconnected | 07:23 |
| Upside | what card do you have? | 07:23 |

| CodeTBone | Where can I change servers at? | 07:33 |
| edbian | bdelin88, What are the permissions of www itself? | 07:33 |
| CodeTBone | Or, where can I find a different server | 07:33 |
| constantine | I had to force it | 07:33 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, System -> admin -> software sources | 07:33 |

| edbian | CodeTBone, Then ignore the applet | 07:42 |
| CodeTBone | K | 07:42 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, The package manager found the server (even did the dns lookup) but said the file was missing (404 error) which is very odd. I've never seen an incomplete repo. | 07:43 |
| h4f | hey I have message from global. that I have to connect using irc.tddirc.net . should I change to that ? | 07:43 |
| CodeTBone | aybe they cleared it because its 7.04, highly unlikely though, thats off the main Ubuntu server | 07:43 |
| lstarnes | h4f: if it was sent here, ignore it | 07:44 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, They probably don't maintain it (plus you have some weird version of the live CD right...) | 07:44 |
| CodeTBone | Yeah it came with a book | 07:44 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, did you try switching repo server? | 07:45 |

| vdubhack | goose: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Use-RSA-Key-for-SSH-Authentication-38599.shtml that will show you | 07:49 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, and it comes with an outdated version of linux? o god... | 07:49 |
| CodeTBone | The book was published in 2008 | 07:49 |
| lstarnes | CodeTBone: that's outdated even for 2008 | 07:49 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, well 7.04 is from 2007 | 07:49 |
| edbian | hence the 7 | 07:49 |
| edbian | and this is 2010! | 07:50 |

| CodeTBone | Yeah I see that | 07:50 |
| tahta | I need some help. My printer (Canon IP1980 can't be installed to my Ubuntu. | 07:50 |
| potyl | I also have a problem with my usb mouse: when I type in the keyboard the mouse is not responding, i need to wait a few seconds. | 07:50 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, I suggest you just mess around with linux and use this channel, the forums, and the greater inter-tubes as your "book" that's what I (and most others do) | 07:50 |
| potyl | seems to me that gnome confuses my mouse with the touch pad | 07:50 |
| vdubhack | does anyone happen to know where to look on a ISO to change its default setting of a specific IP address? I want to make it be DHCP and not set to a static IP | 07:50 |

| CodeTBone | From the book | 07:53 |
| tahta | help me please | 07:53 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, It's soooo old! Are you sure it's a live CD and not a "live beta-max" or something? | 07:54 |
| CodeTBone | "This CD contains all the source code in the book and provides a development and exploitation enviroment you can use to follow along with the examples and experiment along the way." | 07:54 |
| CodeTBone | Lol | 07:54 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, IC, that's pretty comprehensive | 07:54 |
| vdubhack | CodeTBone: are you trying to learn about penetration testing? | 07:54 |
| CodeTBone | I do have a beta-max, should we try mounting that next? | 07:54 |
| edbian | ha ha | 07:54 |
| bdelin88 | for web servers, is it common or good practice to create some sort of admin group | 07:55 |
| CodeTBone | Ive been really interested about learning what and how netsec pros do to protect info | 07:55 |
| lstarnes | bdelin88: I think so | 07:56 |
| vdubhack | CodeTBone: if you want to learn what and how the netsec pros do it you should check out things like the de-ice series or hackerdermia or pwnOS or even DVL and if your new to linux and want an easy attack platform use backtrack | 07:56 |
| CodeTBone | Hmm...linkz ploz? | 07:57 |
| vdubhack | CodeTBone: check out those sites where the disks come from and you will learn tons on both penetration testins and web app sec | 07:57 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, Or just watch War Games. Same thing pretty much. | 07:57 |
| CodeTBone | Lol | 07:57 |
| CodeTBone | Seen it. | 07:57 |

| edbian | CodeTBone, to be fair, it is working. It just can't mount ntfs-3g partitions | 07:59 |
| thermal_ | all my sensors failed out in karmic so I don't even know where its getting this from | 08:00 |
| CodeTBone | Yeah, which means all my data just gets screwed every time I reboot | 08:00 |
| vdubhack | CodeTBone: here is one link to get you started remote-exploit.org | 08:00 |
| edbian | CodeTBone, Anyway, time to go for me. Good luck with Ubuntu! :) | 08:00 |
| CodeTBone | Thanks man! | 08:00 |
| thermal_ | but this is kind of funny, its hitting 30-40 error messages a second to my kern.log file | 08:00 |

| lstarnes | yuanyelele: I would recommend asking the MOTUs about that | 08:35 |
| nisstyre65 | !sudo | 08:35 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 08:35 |
| lstarnes | yuanyelele: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU | 08:35 |
| MoralExpl | there is however, the sudo su | 08:35 |
| yuanyelele | lstarnes: Like gstreamer, -bad, -ugly, something like that. | 08:35 |
| MoralExpl | !sudo su | 08:35 |
| lstarnes | MoralExpl: sudo -i is preferred over sudo su | 08:35 |
| MoralExpl | why is that | 08:36 |
| freeride | kinja-sheep why not? Still thanks | 08:36 |
| lstarnes | MoralExpl: because it only launches sudo and the shell | 08:36 |
| lstarnes | MoralExpl: sudo su launches su too | 08:36 |
| freeride | !root | 08:36 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 08:36 |
| MoralExpl | gotcha | 08:36 |
| User010 | Exactly, this behavior becomes up after i had upgraded Firefox to Shiretoko. Before I had not problems and I haven't installed other applications. I've just installed the updates that the synaptic update system advice. | 08:36 |

| ubottu | Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 08:37 |
| RSMITH16384 | so toss it | 08:37 |
| Real_Ubot | vdubhack: Hm, I thought of using like ssh -D 9999 user@home-server ant the just change settings in Firefox. How would that affect the Internet speed on my laptop? | 08:37 |

| ShazbotMcNasty | I'm going to make a storage partition on this hard drive, should I make it exFAT, or NTFS? | 08:38 |

| ShazbotMcNasty | I've never used exFAT | 08:38 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | and have no idea if it's any good | 08:38 |
| kinja-sheep | ShazbotMcNasty: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems | 08:39 |
| lstarnes | ShazbotMcNasty: I would probably go with ntfs | 08:39 |

| ubuntunewbie | So anyone upgrade their pc without formatting ubuntu ? | 09:47 |
| Reid | I have 3 harddrives in my system, but Ubuntu isn't seeing my largest (500gb) drive. | 09:47 |
| Flannel | deviad: the rc at the front of that means that it's removed, and that the config files are still there (meaning you didn't purge it when you removed it). So yes, it's uninstalled. | 09:47 |
| voidmage | om26er: have any ideas about my GT240? | 09:47 |
| deviad | how do I purge those files? | 09:48 |
| om26er | voidmage, lemme search | 09:48 |
| om26er | voidmage, can this somehow be related with your PSU ? | 09:48 |
| iceroot | is there a way to splitt the screen on TTY1? so i can for e.g. irssi and something else on one screen and can tab between them? | 09:48 |
| iceroot | deviad: apt-get purge packagename for removing conf-files. if you use "remove" its not removing conf-files | 09:49 |
| voidmage | om26er: i doubt it, my PSU meets the requirements for my card. the only thread i could find was on nvnews about this, but most of them haven't tried the 195 drivers. | 09:49 |

| om26er | voidmage, older driver did work fine? | 09:50 |
| puremichael | iceroot, compiz is not activated | 09:50 |
| voidmage | om26er: older driver doesn't support this card | 09:50 |
| RSMITH16384 | pure what cpu? | 09:51 |

| crankharder | i installed mysql and there's only one user, debian sys maint -- there's no root user, so the only way I can log in is with --skip-grant-tables, but then I can't add the root user because of that option, what to do? | 09:51 |

| crankharder | Flannel: read my question, there's no root user to set a password for, just the debian sys maint user | 09:53 |

| puremichael | om26er, with compiz the window moving is fine... but thet i get these terrible lags while minimizing/maximizing windows | 09:55 |
| iceroot | crankharder: so you get accesses denied for user root using password no if typing "mysql -u root"? | 09:55 |
| puremichael | youtube takes also 100% of one core | 09:55 |
| crankharder | yep | 09:55 |
| Flannel | crankharder: Which version of Ubuntu? | 09:55 |
| iceroot | crankharder: you are doing that on localhost? (not an ip-adress) | 09:56 |
| crankharder | there's only one record in the mysql.User table | 09:56 |

| bloodski | k simmaster | 10:34 |
| iceroot | _raven_: no | 10:34 |
| simmaster | Reid: sudo mount /dev/sdc /media/myolddrive -t [filesystem type] | 10:34 |
| iceroot | _raven_: x-server needs the control of the program | 10:34 |
| bloodski | does anyone else know how to get optical audio to work on an asus at3n7a-i mobo in ubuntu 9.04? | 10:34 |
| simmaster | I think the man page lists possible filesystem types | 10:34 |
| _raven_ | iceroot disown helpful? | 10:34 |
| iceroot | _raven_: why you want restarting x? | 10:35 |
| Reid | simmaster: I don't know what filesystem to go with..? I have a win7 partition and ubuntu partition i need to pull info off of. | 10:35 |
| simmaster | Reid: You should have fuse-ntfs | 10:35 |
| grawity | _raven_: All X programs have a connection to the X server - if the server dies, connection breaks. Most of the time, the program quits. | 10:35 |
| Reid | simmaster: so I should do /media/myolddrive -t fuse-ntfs | 10:35 |
| _raven_ | iceroot, because sometimes it crashes and falls back into the default mode (grey-white instead of 3d for example) | 10:35 |
| simmaster | Try -t ntfs | 10:36 |
| iceroot | _raven_: maybe its better to fix that instead of other things | 10:36 |

| _raven_ | iceroot, its not often but when it happens would be nice to keep the applications open - so its not possible? | 10:37 |
| simmaster | @chiossif: Happy new year to you too. *hug* | 10:37 |
| iceroot | _raven_: not possible | 10:37 |

| simmaster | Reid: sudo mount /dev/sdc0 /media/myolddrive -t ntfs | 10:39 |
| _raven_ | grawity, ok then its not the x11 but the window manager | 10:39 |

| simmaster | Hello! | 10:40 |
| _raven_ | grawity, how can i restart the window manager then i could tell you more | 10:40 |
| grawity | _raven_: Switch manually to a console (Ctrl-Alt-F2 would work). Login, then type: export DISPLAY=:0 | 10:40 |
| grawity | _raven_: Then: metacity & | 10:40 |
| _raven_ | grawity, will the console 1 still be open in the background? | 10:41 |
| grawity | _raven_: yes | 10:41 |
| _raven_ | grawity, but graphics will run on two then? | 10:42 |
| grawity | _raven_: Ctrl-Alt-(F1, F2 ... F6) switch to text consoles. And "graphics" runs on the seventh - Ctrl-Alt-F7 | 10:42 |
| usr13 | grawity: Shouldn't it be DISPLAY=:0.0 | 10:42 |

| === JimmyJ is now known as JimmyJ|zz | ||
| _raven_ | grawity, ok what is the command (display.....) for two displays? | 10:42 |

| ePax | chili | 11:42 |
| BlouBlou | chilli0: swap is used by linux systems when system needs more memory ram, it uses hdd as ram | 11:42 |
| ortsvorsteher | chilli0, to page out a space for everey process which you start on your box. swap is needed if may memory is full. see !swap | 11:42 |
| chilli0 | kk ty | 11:42 |
| BlouBlou | !swap | chilli0 | 11:42 |
| ubottu | chilli0: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 11:42 |

| inferno_daulXEON | Bonster_: nVidia keeps an FTP site up for beta linux drivers. Most of them are stable but not released because they can't test them on all flavors all the time. If you can't find anything else to try maybe that will work. But like I said I haven't run into this before im stabbing the dark with a 10 foot sword | 12:01 |
| Scott1979 | what do u classify as wired names | 12:01 |
| Scott1979 | mad | 12:01 |
| iceroot | madPJKfan: and what is good about that? | 12:01 |
| Scott1979 | sorry weirs | 12:01 |
| madPJKfan | iceroot: seems tidier and less confusing/confronting to me | 12:01 |

| Scott1979 | mytyping up the wall | 12:01 |
| iceroot | madPJKfan: for you.. but not for the rest | 12:02 |
| Bonster_ | inferno_daulXEON, yea im using the 190 stable | 12:02 |
| iceroot | madPJKfan: we want standard linux base | 12:02 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Bonster_: good luck. Kinda curious what the issue is myself | 12:02 |
| madPJKfan | iceroot: dunno. When I look at it it seems odd. There is not any particularly good reason, except history, to keep it. | 12:02 |
| Scott1979 | yeah if im gunna use linux i dont want it looking like windows | 12:03 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Bonster_: if you figure it out can you pm me so i can sleep w/o thinking about it | 12:03 |

| Scott1979 | yeah i understand mad | 12:03 |
| madPJKfan | ubuntu being the most user friendly, especially for newbies - I thought it woulda maybe done something like that | 12:03 |
| madPJKfan | apple got away with it, and it is still nix under the hood - didn't break anything | 12:04 |
| iceroot | madPJKfan: there is no reason for that | 12:04 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Scott1979: lol when are we not fixing windows machines. when we arent sitting in front of them? | 12:04 |
| Bonster_ | inferno_daulXEON, guess ill try turning the drivers off and on, see if anything goes | 12:04 |
| Scott1979 | i found the file system hard to work around myself in the beginning | 12:04 |
| Scott1979 | but this is one way we stay saff from attacks rather then collaberate or sensitive folders all together | 12:04 |

| konraddo | hi, if i have 4GB of ram and i'm not planning to use hibernation, it's not worth to create a SWAP partition? | 12:06 |
| Scott1979 | prove me wrong dustman | 12:06 |
| Scott1979 | do u consider that windows is true 64bit | 12:07 |
| dustman | heard of irix, aix, solaris? | 12:07 |
| inferno_daulXEON | konraddo: What are you going to use your computer for? | 12:07 |
| Scott1979 | multitasking multi users os | 12:07 |
| konraddo | browsing internet, watching movies, listening to music, etc... | 12:07 |

| Guest1990 | Does anyone know how to embed the terminal onto the desktop??? | 12:07 |
| Scott1979 | are these not direvitives of linux | 12:07 |
| Scott1979 | dustman | 12:07 |
| petsounds | konraddo, swap isn't necessary. | 12:07 |
| inferno_daulXEON | konraddo: If you think you'll ever need more than 4gb then use swap. If not don't worry about it | 12:07 |
| Scott1979 | opensource | 12:08 |
| Scott1979 | dustman | 12:08 |
| dustman | Scott1979: opensolaris is | 12:08 |
| tos_ | how can i get back to the install screen to install Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud | 12:08 |
| konraddo | ok thanks | 12:08 |
| Reid | every time i start vuze it crashes, <-- fresh install of vuze from synaptic. | 12:08 |
| Scott1979 | you only pay for the support not the software dustman so all opensource os | 12:08 |
| dustman | plus there are bsds as well | 12:08 |
| Scott1979 | not windows though | 12:08 |
| Scott1979 | i am agreeing with u but u are being technical | 12:09 |
| inferno_daulXEON | I do simulations and CGRendering. I have 16gb of ram and 16gb of swap and use about half the swap sometimes | 12:09 |
| Guest1990 | Does anyone know how to embed the terminal onto the desktop??? | 12:09 |
| Scott1979 | these operating systems are no where near obtainable for an average user | 12:09 |
| tos_ | guest, google it, youll find something | 12:09 |
| dustman | which one? | 12:09 |
| Scott1979 | opensolairs | 12:09 |
| Guest1990 | Thanks | 12:09 |
| Scott1979 | unix | 12:09 |
| kid | salus | 12:10 |
| Scott1979 | the ones u said | 12:10 |
| dustman | unix is not that harder than linux | 12:10 |
| dustman | opensolaris is plain gnome | 12:10 |
| Scott1979 | for someone like yourself maybe not | 12:10 |
| Scott1979 | dont be technical about this | 12:10 |
| dustman | no difference from ubuntu | 12:10 |
| Nicekiwi9 | ubuntu 9.10 has forgotten i have an audio device, help? | 12:10 |
| Scott1979 | i mean install and go | 12:10 |
| Scott1979 | u dont just install opensolaris and go | 12:11 |
| Scott1979 | like fedora or ubuntu | 12:11 |
| dustman | desktopbsd/pcbsd <- plain freebsd with kde | 12:11 |
| Scott1979 | yes there is a difference one is call unix | 12:11 |
| Scott1979 | the other is ubuntu | 12:11 |
| petsounds | Scott1979, i think it's better to discuss on #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:12 |

| inferno_daulXEON | WEIRD ISSUE - Fresh install of karmic desktop 64. Using ASRock mobo and included display card. On boot it gives me a pci error for the card and shows the text login.

| konraddo | btw i forgot.... i want to use virtualization, too.... so should i use SWAP, yes? | 12:12 |
| studentsumitkato | my name is sumit katoch | 12:13 |
| iceroot | konraddo: what virtualization? | 12:13 |
| konraddo | virtualize Windows XP | 12:13 |
| inferno_daulXEON | konraddo: If you have a big hard drive I would just partition a gig or two for swap. you beeeee fiiiiiiineeeee | 12:13 |
| iceroot | konraddo: with what | 12:13 |
| konraddo | hmmm just sometimes test some applications.... | 12:14 |
| iceroot | konraddo: or let it say me better, if not using xen or vmware esx, swap is a good idea | 12:14 |
| konraddo | okay :D | 12:14 |
| Scott1979 | if u want to hibernate konraddo make it 3.8 gig | 12:14 |
| inferno_daulXEON | konraddo: I don't know if you can do it but maybe since youll be running 32windows with a 3gb limit, if you could do a 3gb swp and use the ram only for linux and the swap only for windows | 12:15 |
| Nicekiwi9 | ubuntu 9.10 has forgotten i have an audio device, help? | 12:15 |
| iceroot | inferno_daulXEON: you dont want to use a hdd for RAM | 12:15 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Nicekiwi9: everyone has this problem. Im sure theres a googlz result by now | 12:15 |
| tos_ | nicekiwi9, mine is doing that too... i think you need the non-free drivers for ur sound card | 12:15 |
| inferno_daulXEON | iceroot: I know i just though it would be cool. HDD is way slower | 12:16 |
| konraddo | Scott1979, i don't want to hibernate. inferno_daulXEON, nice, i didn't heard that it's possible to use SWAP as RAM for virtualized OS | 12:16 |

| inferno_daulXEON | konraddo: i dunno if you can do it. I was saying you should google it just for a slap and tickle | 12:16 |
| erUSUL | selfimage: channel ops or freenode staffers? | 12:17 |
| konraddo | kk | 12:17 |
| selfimage | freenode | 12:17 |
| konraddo | hmm anyway thanks :D | 12:17 |
| erUSUL | selfimage: ask in #freenode | 12:17 |
| selfimage | ok thanks | 12:17 |
| inferno_daulXEON | konraddo: buy more ram and use no swap thats my vote. | 12:17 |
| Nicekiwi9 | tos_: it worked 10 hours ago | 12:17 |
| inferno_daulXEON | konraddo=P | 12:17 |
| Nicekiwi9 | tos_: between wen i went to sleep and wen i woke up its forgotten the device exists | 12:17 |
| tos_ | nicekiwi9, maybe it does that when you dont use it... | 12:18 |
| tos_ | lol | 12:18 |
| tos_ | i dont know why | 12:18 |
| tos_ | in the same boat tho | 12:18 |
| Nicekiwi9 | everyone has it? oh... | 12:18 |
| ubuntu | my computer cant boot up, it says it cant mount /dev/pts | 12:18 |
| ubuntu | and so mountall has failed with an error | 12:18 |
| === ubuntu is now known as br0kenarr0w | ||
| br0kenarr0w | can anyone help? | 12:18 |
| Bonster | Swap is usually use for sleep mode and when ram is 100% in used | 12:18 |
| br0kenarr0w | what is /dev/pts for? | 12:19 |
| Nicekiwi9 | inferno_daulXEON: the problem with googleing it is since its a new bug its im unlikly to get recent results in a google search | 12:20 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: for Pseudo-TerminalS iirc | 12:21 |
| br0kenarr0w | do you have any idea why ubuntu would fail to mount it? | 12:22 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Nicekiwi9: yea i know but i've seen atleast 10 people in the last 24 hours talking about karmic sound issues. Im just high and dont remember the fixes | 12:22 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: nope sorry; that the only error you get? | 12:22 |
| br0kenarr0w | i think so | 12:22 |
| br0kenarr0w | ehh my linux is broken, really wanna fix it | 12:22 |
| br0kenarr0w | ;( | 12:23 |
| efinitix | anybody here experienced in wget or curl? | 12:23 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: is it as broken as your arrow? | 12:23 |
| Nicekiwi9 | inferno_daulXEON: fun... | 12:23 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, yup | 12:23 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: which part | 12:23 |
| g0tcha | hey guys, if i setup a VPN on my home ubuntu and i connect to some unsecure wireless hotspot when i travel then to my VPN thats at home, is everything i do online then is secure? | 12:23 |
| Bonster | try mounting it manually | 12:23 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, it says it cant mount /dev/pts and so the thing doenst boot up, it asks for a root password i dont have or lets me press ctrl-d to restart | 12:24 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> what you mean 'i travel then to my vpn' ? | 12:24 |
| inferno_daulXEON | can you boot from a livecd and chmod the directory? | 12:25 |
| Reid | having a display issue. I'm using Svideo (I have to.) and my screen is off center anyway to adjust from ubuntu side? | 12:25 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: does it say why it can not mount it? | 12:25 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, i am on a livecd | 12:25 |
| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, i mean if i travel and connect to my home VPN | 12:25 |
| Reid | bios shows up centered, but nothing else. | 12:25 |
| br0kenarr0w | erUSUL, the standard reason, bad superblock or ... | 12:25 |
| inferno_daulXEON | you cant sudo mount it? | 12:25 |
| br0kenarr0w | i have mounted it | 12:25 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, i should chmod /dev/pts ? | 12:25 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> and then what would you want ? | 12:26 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: Are you rooted on the livecd? or the drive? | 12:26 |
| luismanuel | Hi, I changed something in the internet settings and I could not connect to the web (I am using right now a pendrive to connect) What can i do to restore all the connection as it was before, i mean "automatically" | 12:26 |
| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, im asking, after i connect to my home VPN, is it safe for me to check my private emails and such without worrying from someone sniffing data from this public network? | 12:26 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: well that's really weird becouse /dev/pts is a "virtual filesystem" like proc or sys so how can the superblock be bad? maybe it fails to mount root first and then fails the other mounts becouse of that? | 12:26 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, uhm is /dev/ supposed to be empty? | 12:27 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> everything youll do its secure. | 12:27 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> you using ruter ? which mark ? | 12:27 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: it sounds to me like theres an issue with your install. is it a fresh one? | 12:27 |
| br0kenarr0w | erUSUL, maybe, but my root mounts fine under livecd | 12:27 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: in the livecd no; in the hard disk yes | 12:27 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, its not too old | 12:27 |
| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, at home? yes, a netgear router | 12:27 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: dev gets populated on but by udev | 12:27 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: see this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/insserv/+bug/321927 | 12:27 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> if u connect to ur router with ur passwd and login, everything will be good :) and secure | 12:28 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> but if you want to connect to some unscure wirlles then you could lost some information | 12:28 |
| br0kenarr0w | i recently fscked my filesystem inferno_daulXEON and it had a load of problems fix'ed... a few files were created in lost+found | 12:29 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> im now using netgear :) it has 4 type of secure its good :) | 12:29 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, is that possibly the cause of it? | 12:29 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: could be; maybe the conf of udev got screwed or some other config file ... | 12:30 |
| br0kenarr0w | inferno_daulXEON, some of them seem to be /prov and /dev symlinks | 12:30 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: ditto | 12:30 |
| nh2 | I cannot start java without -Xmx on our server, I get: Error occurred during initialization of VM - Could not reserve enough space for object heap - Could not create the Java virtual machine. The happens even after a recompilation of openJDK. Any idea why? | 12:30 |
| br0kenarr0w | i donno how to fix it though | 12:30 |
| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, hmm youre confusing me.. i want to install the VPN on my ubuntu machine and not my router so i get to connect to my ubuntu VPN, so i dont get what your talking about when you say the router | 12:30 |
| inferno_daulXEON | I think it might be best to backup and reinstall at this point | 12:31 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> hehe you want to run wifi by ur machine | 12:31 |
| Hakunamatata | ? | 12:31 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> or you want to buy a router ? | 12:31 |
| madPJKfan | heya | 12:31 |
| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, no dude.. a public unsecure wifi when i travel out of the country | 12:31 |
| madPJKfan | is there a backup utility in the stock ubuntu install? | 12:31 |
| g0tcha | buy a router? heheh i dont think you get my question right =) | 12:31 |

| br0kenarr0w | does anyone know how to access an encrypted filesystem? i donno how to mount my encrypted home directory | 12:32 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: Like someone said before, the issue with /dev is that the installer generates the files. | 12:32 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> so this is unsecure ! :) | 12:32 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: eeek... | 12:32 |
| br0kenarr0w | eek? :( | 12:32 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: it uses ecryptfs filesystem type; google would be able to tell you what switches to pass to mount | 12:33 |
| inferno_daulXEON | br0kenarr0w: ditto. I got nothing, consult with skynet..... i mean google | 12:33 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> of corse nobady want your database , but its not secure and i wont to use it, never :) | 12:34 |
| dns53 | inferno_daulXEON if not google, you want the ubuntu wiki page, it should be easy to find | 12:35 |
| inferno_daulXEON | dns53: i dont want crap except a sandwich and a coffee. br0kenarr0w needs the info | 12:35 |
| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, other ppl in #networking just told me its safe and secure to do that | 12:35 |
| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, i think you didnt understand what i was asking correctly | 12:36 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: here http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7568/3/ <<< explains how to access the encrypted directory from livecd | 12:36 |
| erUSUL | br0kenarr0w: looks easier than i thought | 12:37 |

| g0tcha | Hakunamatata, hmm i dont get it, what do you mean? | 12:37 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> for example: you are in the pekin, and you turn on your vpn, and you connect to unsecure network | 12:38 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> you got me ? | 12:38 |

| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> when stream will go along through unsecure network, you ll not secure | 12:41 |
| g0tcha | the idea is whats unsecure is the data going from the public network to the vpn, but then what goes from the vpn to the rest of the internet should be secured | 12:41 |
| RSMITH16384 | hello, i need to know if my interfaces are gbit or not | 12:42 |
| g0tcha | thats the idea i have right now, or am i wrong? =/ | 12:42 |
| RSMITH16384 | via commandline | 12:42 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> you colud connect everywhere but bytes still goes along through the unsecure network. Of course anybody wnat to destroy your datas and compuier, but some people could use it UNSECURE fact | 12:42 |
| RSMITH16384 | ifconfig wont say | 12:42 |

| domas | rsmith16384: mii-tool that is | 12:43 |
| Hakunamatata | <g0tcha> maybe 90 prcnt ppl do it like u but its not secure. <- this is the answer for ur first question :)( | 12:43 |
| g0tcha | how do i secure it then? | 12:43 |

| Zteam | itsnotstalker:No, it isn't | 13:02 |
| Zteam | but from what I know that is just the gui for tor?? | 13:02 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Smithy: Why don't you just use Yakuake - I <3 it | 13:02 |
| erUSUL | john_doe: try alsamixer | 13:03 |
| Smithy | Paulus68 I have used this one before. | 13:03 |
| Smithy | I maybe doing something worng i not sure | 13:03 |
| john_doe | erUSUL: alright. It surprises me that it's not installed. Is that weird to you too? | 13:03 |
| paulus68 | Smithy: it is working for me like that | 13:03 |
| Smithy | inferno_daulXEON is that the same thing. | 13:03 |
| erUSUL | john_doe: well dunno; i upgrade. maybe a clean install wont include it becouse pulseaudio | 13:04 |

| inferno_daulXEON | Smithy: no but its really awesome. It scrolls down a terminal from the top bar like a dev-console in a video game. you can set it to whatever hotkeys you want. just make sure to have it autostart | 13:05 |
| grawity | Zteam: Vidalia is just the GUI, yes | 13:05 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Smithy: That way you can keep your pretty pics of boobies on your desktop | 13:05 |

| Smithy | inferno_daulXEON how do install that one. | 13:05 |
| john_doe | erUSUL: (I upgraded too). it's a usb card. it doesn't have any mixer elements so alsamixer doesn't start. I suppose it's a software layer I need to unmute. I thought that would be pulseaudio. | 13:05 |
| inferno_daulXEON | Smithy: sudo apt-get install yakuake | 13:06 |
| Smithy | inferno_daulXEON thanks | 13:06 |
| grawity | Zteam: Do you have Tor itself running? | 13:06 |
| grawity | Zteam: The usual way to start it is by starting the Vidalia GUI | 13:06 |
| om26er | is there any indicator-applet xchat plugin? | 13:07 |
| inferno_daulXEON | smithy I have mine set to drop down for ctrl+f10. Try not to pick a hotkey thats already used by ubuntu or youll have to unbind it | 13:07 |

| grawity | Zteam: Open Terminal, type 'pgrep -l tor' | 13:08 |
| john_doe | erUSUL: got it. pulseaudio used the wrong audio device. Changed it with pavucontrol | 13:08 |
| paulus68 | Smithy: you can also take a look into this I know it has nothing to do with the terminal however you can get some need info out of this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281865 example http://img21.imageshack.us/i/desktopjg0.gif/ | 13:08 |

| clrg | reduz7: Recently installed a graphics driver? | 13:44 |
| erkan^ | which videocard have you? | 13:45 |
| reduz7 | clrg, installed the nvidia one | 13:45 |
| clrg | reduz7: Did it work before you installed the nvidia driver? Then we found the problem | 13:45 |
| === DaZ_ is now known as DaZ | ||
| Bonster | reduz7, which driver u install and which card u got | 13:45 |
| reduz7 | clrg, it didn't either, but at least i could go back to console | 13:46 |
| OerHeks | Arsin i tries also, but i found out direct download will do 32bit/64bit > http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-songbird-1-4-1-in-ubuntu.html | 13:46 |
| reduz7 | clgr now if i go to console i got black screen | 13:46 |
| reduz7 | Bonster, nvidia gf8600 | 13:46 |
| === BlouBlou is now known as BlouBlou_ | ||
| === BlouBlou_ is now known as BlouBlou | ||
| Zteam | grawity: any clue? | 13:47 |
| reduz7 | also ubuntu doesn't allow me to change driver in those screens | 13:47 |
| _THEGOD | is it possible to load grub from syslinux ? | 13:47 |
| clrg | reduz7: Did you modfify anything of the default installation except the driver that could be relevant to the problem? | 13:47 |
| erkan^ | what is grub? | 13:47 |
| === szczawiu is now known as rebeltech | ||
| reduz7 | clrg, no | 13:48 |
| clrg | erkan: That's the boot loader | 13:48 |
| reduz7 | glrg also i get "failure restoring default configuration" if i want to use default graphics option | 13:48 |
| reduz7 | glrg so there's not much i can do, can't log in at all | 13:48 |
| reduz7 | ah maybe i could ssh | 13:48 |
| reduz7 | but i don't know the IP | 13:48 |
| _THEGOD | erkan grldr | 13:49 |
| erkan^ | ok. I don't understand why did a display for my laptop blank when i go install/demo :S. hmdi connect on my laptop and a televison work very good :s | 13:49 |
| clrg | reduz7: You can probably log in to tty1-6.. Try pressing ctrl+alt+f1. Do you see a termial promt? | 13:49 |
| reduz7 | clrg blank screen if i do that | 13:49 |
| erkan^ | did you try with a hdmi too, reduz7? | 13:49 |
| clrg | reduz7: Try pressing enter | 13:49 |
| _THEGOD | anyone knows how to attach grldr to syslinux ? | 13:50 |
| reduz7 | clrg, tried pressing enter a few times but it's still blank, also i can't even go back to F7 so i assume it crashed | 13:50 |
| clrg | reduz7: Yeah, looks that way.. Do you see the login screen after reboot, or is it just blank? | 13:50 |
| Bonster | reduz7, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 13:50 |
| Milp | Hey guys, a dist-upgrade messed up half my server and SSHD broke, how would i go about diagnosing it now that my server is in repair mode and i can access it via SSH again? | 13:51 |
| reduz7 | Bonster, i'd do that if i had a shell :) | 13:51 |
| guntbert | reduz7: try <alt> left, or <alt> right (several times) | 13:51 |
| === fengor is now known as fen[eikaufen] | ||
| reduz7 | Bonster, i can't even go to a shell | 13:51 |
| Zteam | reduz7: try booting up from a liveCD then? | 13:51 |
| === fen[eikaufen] is now known as fen[einkaufen] | ||
| clrg | Bonster: The problem is the graphics driver, not X11 | 13:51 |
| reduz7 | ok will try, thanks! | 13:51 |
| Arsin | OerHeks: Thanks | 13:51 |
| grawity | Milp: If you have access to the console - try upgrading again. | 13:51 |
| OerHeks | Arsin i had to remove gstreamer bad plugin, before it works | 13:51 |
| OerHeks | have fun | 13:51 |
| Milp | grawity i have access to the console but the old server is only mounted as a Folder, so i can only modify data and now run commands | 13:51 |
| Milp | *not | 13:52 |
| Bonster | reduz7, use recovery mode in the grub option? | 13:52 |
| clrg | Milp: Depends on what runlevel you are, try pinging your machine | 13:52 |
| grawity | Milp: chroot to it? | 13:52 |
| Milp | grawity what is that? | 13:52 |
| grawity | A command. | 13:52 |
| reduz7 | ok i got to the livecd, what do i do from there? :) | 13:53 |
| guntbert | !chroot | Milp | 13:53 |
| ubottu | Milp: chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot) | 13:53 |
| Milp | thanks guntbert | 13:53 |
| Zteam | Milp: chroot let you run commands from the CD that modifies your ubuntu-partition instead of the CD | 13:53 |
| clrg | reduz7: Does the graphical environment work with the live cd? | 13:53 |
| Milp | so i would just hit chroot NEWROOT /repair/ and id be in my old distribution? | 13:53 |
| c3l | is there no plug-in or mod or w/e to be able to manage backgrounds for different displays in gnome? (..similar result as in kde..) | 13:53 |
| Zteam | Milp: Yeah but you have to mount it first | 13:54 |
| reduz7 | clrg, yeah | 13:54 |
| reduz7 | ah i figured out the IP and shelled in | 13:54 |
| Milp | Zteam the folder is already mounted :) | 13:54 |
| guntbert | Milp: if you mounted your old distri in /repair - yes | 13:54 |
| Milp | guntbert yep i did, awesome | 13:54 |
| clrg | c3l: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/93/ | 13:55 |
| c3l | clrg, thx | 13:55 |
| Zteam | Milp: Don't think it will work with graphical programs thought | 13:55 |
| guntbert | Milp: you can leave that chroot environment with <ctrl> d | 13:55 |
| clrg | reduz7: Good. All you need to do is remove the buggy driver and go back to the working on you used before. | 13:55 |
| NamVet | does the ubuntu install check the old hard drive for errors? | 13:56 |
| Milp | Zteam yeah its a console only server | 13:56 |
| Zteam | Milp: okey :-) | 13:56 |
| SwedeMike | NamVet: generally not. | 13:56 |
| Milp | Is there an apt-get function to repair my distribution or anything? | 13:56 |
| Milp | like to check and fix everything | 13:56 |
| clrg | NamVet: Boot the live cd, fire up a terminal, fdisk -l to see your partitions, then fsck to check the FS | 13:56 |
| Zteam | Milp: sudo aptitude install -f | 13:57 |
| NamVet | SwedeMike a suggestion on what to use to prepare the drive for Ubuntu install? | 13:57 |
| mbruins | Milp: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade? | 13:57 |
| reduz7 | clrg, it's probably not the driver's fault but ubuntu that doesn't know what to do when connected through a KVM switch | 13:57 |
| SwedeMike | NamVet: not really, do you suspect the drive to be faulty? | 13:57 |
| Milp | Zteam aptitude is not available on the repair container | 13:57 |
| Zteam | Milp: that will try to fix package problems | 13:57 |
| NamVet | clrg: thank you good bye all happy new year | 13:57 |
| Milp | Zteam wait ill just install it, thanks | 13:58 |
| Zteam | Milp: okey, just try sudo apt-get install -f | 13:58 |
| Zteam | Milp: instead | 13:58 |
| clrg | reduz7: Do you connect to the KVM switch using VGA? | 13:58 |
| clrg | reduz7: You might need to adapt your /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the external KVM monitor | 13:58 |
| Milp | Zteam aptitude is crashes due to SIGABRT :/ | 13:59 |
| Milp | however apt-get does nothing with the -f parameter | 13:59 |
| reduz7 | clgr: ah.. i just found a modeline so i'm going to try that out | 13:59 |
| Zteam | Milp: that means it can't find any errors in the package system | 13:59 |
| clrg | Milp: Does apt-get check report missing dependencies? | 14:00 |
| Milp | clrg says something about building dependency tree | 14:00 |
| clrg | Milp: And that's all there is? Then your dependencies are met.. | 14:00 |
| guntbert | Milp: I seem to remember - for apt... to work you have to mount several systems (like /proc...) into the chroot - but I forgot the exact commands | 14:01 |
| Milp | hmm ok, my kern.log also says something about a missing map file, could that be causing errors? | 14:01 |
| Milp | or should i just run do-release-upgrade again and upgrade to yet another dist.? | 14:01 |
| Zteam | Milp: which dist are you using? | 14:02 |
| Milp | 2.6.18-028stab062.3 | 14:02 |
| clrg | guntbert: You need /dev and /proc.. I guess there's an article about it, I'll search for it | 14:02 |
| Milp | thats what uname -r tells me, im not quite sure what to make out of this | 14:02 |
| Snausages | Hi, I recently created a second user account on my 9.10 laptop. Now the suspend/power saving behavior is completely different from what I have specified in power settings. How do I reset them so that they actually work? | 14:02 |
| Zteam | Milp: which ubuntu relase? | 14:02 |
| reduz7 | clgr: worked perfectly now! though i'm a little scared of what could have happened if i didn't have a shell.. i'm not sure why ubuntu can't switch to a VESA display in case of failure | 14:03 |
| Zteam | Milp: release* | 14:03 |
| Milp | jaunty | 14:03 |
| Zteam | Milp: why not upgrade to karmic? | 14:03 |
| clrg | guntbert: http://www.howtoforge.com/chrooted_ssh_howto_debian | 14:04 |
| Milp | Zteam i am in the progress of updating, but the updates somehow failed and now my server is completely wrecked | 14:04 |
| Zteam | Milp: let it update again | 14:04 |
| Milp | Zteam thats why im in the repair mode now, cant even access it through the net anymore | 14:04 |
| Zteam | Milp: hopefully it will work | 14:05 |
| Milp | Zteam hm that sounds like a plan, but thats what i did before already | 14:05 |
| clrg | reduz7: I believe you can tell X11 to do just that, but I'm no expert on X.. I'm glad it worked | 14:05 |
| Milp | Zteam i started with the last LTS release of ubuntu and upgraded till jaunty and it only got worse lol | 14:05 |
| reduz7 | clrg, heh actually it didn't completely work.. i have a virtual screen larger than the res | 14:05 |
| VCoolio | in bash, how do I call 'all arguments except the first'? The first is $1 | 14:06 |
| Milp | Zteam hm do-release-upgrade crashes with Errno12 Cannot allocate memory | 14:06 |
| Zteam | Milp: update one step too then, otherwise you can try to boot with an older kernel | 14:06 |
| Milp | Zteam how do i boot an older kernel when i cant access the machine while booting? Is there a config line or something i can change? | 14:06 |
| Dr_Willis | the grub configs define the default kernel to use. Milp | 14:07 |
| Zteam | Milp: yes use, sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst and comment out your latest kernel | 14:07 |
| clrg | reduz7: There's a GUI tool to manage the resolution.. Easier to use than xorg.conf. You should find it in System > Preferences > Display | 14:07 |
| Milp | Thanks guys :D | 14:08 |
| Dr_Willis | VCoolio: isent that $2- or somthing like that. Check the abs guide. | 14:08 |

| Federeor | Do you guys know of any article on how wubi works ?? | 14:08 |
| Federeor | I am really curious | 14:08 |
| behappy | Hello its possible to make connection remote descktop from my ubuntu to windows 7 in othe pc in same network ? | 14:08 |
| Zteam | Milp: but I really don't understand why you upgraded from a LTS to janty?? | 14:08 |
| Milp | Zteam Dr_Willis ok something is definately wrong, the whole boot folder is empty | 14:08 |
| Dr_Willis | behappy: vnc will let you get 'remote desktops's On windos. | 14:08 |
| Milp | Zteam because the newest mumble server wouldnt run on the old LTS version | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: you dont have a seperate /boot/ partition that may not be mounted? | 14:09 |
| behappy | Dr_Willis: how to install it ? | 14:09 |
| Federeor | 1wubi | 14:09 |
| Federeor | !wubi | 14:09 |

| Milp | Dr_Willis how do i check? | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis | behappy: theres dozens of vnc cliwent/servers for windows. gnome on ubuntu has a vnc fweather as well. or you can install a seperate vnc server for ubuntu | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: sudo fdisk -l, and mount, and explore the filesystems I guess. :) its odd that /boot/ is empty. but ive seen some disrtos/peopel set up a /boot/ partition thats not mounted . but that can really goof up grub updates | 14:10 |
| behappy | Dr_Willis: but this will be done over internet so I need domain or whatever then the connection will be slow ? | 14:11 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis it says that it cant open /proc/partitions :/ | 14:11 |
| clrg | Milp: Are you root? | 14:11 |
| Dr_Willis | behappy: over the internet - You would want to 'ssh tunnle' the vnc connection, or use freenx, or some sort of VPN. | 14:11 |
| wowoto | Milp: sudo -i | 14:12 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis i should probably mention that im still in the mounted repair folder | 14:12 |
| Milp | wowoto clrg Did that, still doesnt work | 14:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: You are in a chrooted enviroment? | 14:12 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis yes | 14:12 |
| clrg | Milp: Did you mount /proc ? | 14:12 |
| Dr_Willis | try the commands in a non chroot shell. sounds like uyou dident mount /proc/ and the other stuff properly befor chrooting | 14:12 |
| DVA5912 | why is it when i upload files to my own servers, via ftp, they automaticaly have no permissions im using vsftpd for my service | 14:12 |
| Milp | clrg i only mounted the main folder | 14:12 |
| Milp | clrg how would i go about mounting all the rest that needs to be mounted? :/ | 14:13 |
| br0kenarr0w | why does the installer take so much time to create an ext4 fs? | 14:13 |
| clrg | Milp: Your chroot env needs /dev and /proc in order to work properly | 14:13 |
| jcc1 | I recently upgraded to 9.10, but due to many probs from too many upgrades, re-loaded from scratch. After both the upgrade and scratch install I have a prob w/login notifier/system notifier, i.e. no text, just a black box w/4 dotted lines. Anybody else seen this? I searched for solutions but found none. | 14:13 |
| clrg | Milp: http://www.howtoforge.com/chrooted_ssh_howto_debian | 14:13 |
| Milp | thanks man | 14:14 |
| clrg | Milp: Just ignore the ssh part. The article should explain how to create a chroot environment | 14:14 |
| Milp | clrg im on ssh anyways :) | 14:14 |
| Milp | clrg do i need to close my existing chroot stuff first? CTRL-C right? | 14:14 |
| clrg | Milp: Exit is the proper way | 14:14 |
| Dr_Willis | mount -o bind /dev /location/of/mountpoint/dev | 14:14 |
| mickster54 | i have a usb speakerphone device from panasonic, but dunno how to get it working, it doesnt work by default:/ | 14:15 |
| Dr_Willis | http://cutecomputer.wordpress.com/2007/01/07/howto-dev-file-system-in-chroot-ed-environment/ | 14:15 |
| reduz7 | clrg, seems i can't do anything with the gui tool, and for a reson i don't understand my vertical resolution is larger than the monitor so it scrolls up and down | 14:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: i always end up double checking the old gentoo install docs. They basically do the 'switch over totally to the chrooted system' for their install. :) | 14:15 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis what do you mean? I am a little confused right now | 14:16 |
| reduz7 | clgr though the screen resolution is correct | 14:16 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis i think totally chrooting in to that folder-mounted machine is exactly what i want to do, i just dont quite know how, and the tutorial tells me something about downloading and installing stuff | 14:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: you need to set up the proc and dev - Befor you chroot. | 14:17 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis how do i do that? | 14:17 |
| clrg | reduz7: Curious. Please execute "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit" | 14:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: somthing similer to what is said in code listing 2.16 of this (yes i knos its gentoo docs) --> http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml | 14:18 |
| Dr_Willis | livecd / # mount -t proc proc /mnt/gentoo/proc | 14:18 |
| Dr_Willis | livecd / # mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev | 14:18 |
| reduz7 | clrg oh i fixed it... it was some strange bug it seems, i just removed some of the smaller resolutions like 800x600 and now it works from xorg.conf | 14:18 |
| clrg | Dr_Willis: Exactly. Those are the commands I was searching for =) | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: otherwise when you chroot in. the /proc and /dev will be incorrect | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | clrg: gentoo is so usefull.. for examples. :) | 14:19 |
| klown | clrg, never seen that pastebin command before. thank you. | 14:19 |
| br0kenarr0w | lol i dont get linux ;) | 14:19 |
| Federeor | Do you guys know of any article on how wubi works ?? | 14:19 |
| Federeor | A link will help ? | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: also /boot needs to be mounted to its proper place also if its on its own partition | 14:19 |

| === Tupac is now known as petsounds | ||
| Dr_Willis | reduz7: its making a password for your default keyring to store all your passwords. | 14:21 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis ok umm is mount -t proc proc /repair/proc the correct Command to mount proc? And mount -o bind /dev /repair/dev for the dev folder? | 14:21 |
| clrg | reduz7: Its name tells you what it does: Its a keyring. | 14:21 |
| reduz7 | Dr_Willis, well wathever i enter on that text box it isn't happy | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Federeor: thats the extent of my wubi knowledge. I avoide wubi like its the plauge. | 14:21 |
| reduz7 | clrg, i know what a keyring is, but wathever i enter in the textbox, empathy isn't happy with and asks again | 14:21 |
| Snausages | gah, this is getting to be nasty. Every time I attempt to switch users or connect AC power, or disconnect AC power, my laptop suspends itself. This is new behavior which started concurrently with creating a 2nd user account. Can anyone help? | 14:21 |
| klown | guess the password isnt correct :P | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis | reduz7: you may have set a password for your keyring at one timne. and dont rember what it was. | 14:22 |
| Dr_Willis | !resetkeyring | 14:22 |
| reduz7 | Dr_Willis, it's a clean install so i don't think so | 14:22 |
| clrg | Federeor: I'm sure there's a developer forum | 14:22 |
| br0kenarr0w | if i have an encrypted home directory on one drive, and reinstall linux and create a user with the same password, can i copy the old home folder over to the new and read my ecrypted data? | 14:22 |
| Dr_Willis | reduz7: no idea then. I got a video on how to reset the keyring passowrd at --> http://drop.io/dr_willis | 14:23 |
| g0tcha | hey guys, is it possible to change the pptpd server port from 1723 to a different port? | 14:23 |

| jcc1 | Has anyone else seen the problem with a blank notifier window on 9.10 fresh install? | 14:23 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis are there commands to check if i mounted proc and dev right? And then how would i mount boot? | 14:23 |
| Federeor | Dr_Willis , clrg : I am not using wubi , but I just wanted to take part in a discussion on wubi but I have no idea how it works and I not really interested to dissect the program lol | 14:23 |
| reduz7 | Dr_Willis, thanks! I don't really know what is going on with 9.10 but i don't even rememver having so many problems with a clean install of an ubuntu version so far :( | 14:24 |
| Snausages | jcc1: I saw some weird notifier windows from mine when I first started. I turned off a lot of notifications and it hasn't been a problem since then. | 14:24 |
| jcc1 | The particular window that's causing me probs is on initial login and bat status on laptop, there have been others, but since there is no text I have no clue what they are | 14:25 |
| shane_ | ??? | 14:25 |
| hakunama1ata | execouse me | 14:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: same as you mount any other filesystem mount /dev/whatever /boot after you chroot in. | 14:25 |
| jcc1 | I saw one article that said it was because Lucida fonts are no longer installed. I oinstalled them but no help | 14:26 |
| Milp | Dr_Willis uuh what is /dev/whatever in this case then? I dont quite understand | 14:26 |
| Snausages | jcc1: mine would show some scrambled graphics, and I heard the same complaint from other users. I never actually set out to fix this... I don't like notification systems in general so I was mostly just trying to cut down the noise and traffic on screen... but whatever I did, the faulty notifications stopped when I did it. | 14:26 |
| jcc1 | OK with me, but I've never even looked at notifier system, where do I find the setup for this? | 14:27 |
| Snausages | heh, trying to remember where I found the settings | 14:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: thats what 'sudo fdisk -l' will show you. You need to learn how your system is partioned and what filesystems are where. | 14:28 |
| jcc1 | i briefly looked one afternoon a few days ago, but I'm clueless on this | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Milp: if you dont understand the basics of mounting a filesystem. then its time to learn soem more linux basics befor trying anything more complex. | 14:28 |

| macman_ | hey all question .. i have 5 pdf's right they are on my desktop .. when i drag them to my external hdd they turn funky looking and ican't open them .. i try to open it says permission denied .. what could that be .. another thing i can read/write to the external hdd that is saying permission denied | 14:38 |
| lunixx | I need some advice for how to dualboot Vista and Ubuntu9.10. OSes are installed on different physical harddrives. | 14:38 |

| napster | lunixx, Seems I can help you | 14:39 |
| lunixx | napster :) great | 14:39 |
| g0tcha | Dr_Willis, i guess my isp is blocking port 1723 then because i portforward it to my ubuntu and still shows as blocked | 14:39 |
| mka | macman_, can you open your pdf's when they are in desktop? | 14:39 |
| g0tcha | can the pptp server port be changed by any chance? | 14:40 |

| ubottu | lunixx: 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. :-) | 14:40 |
| macman_ | yes mka | 14:40 |
| urthmover | lunixx: I don't know much but I believe that you should be manipulating your menu.lst file to point at different devices/partitions | 14:40 |
| g0tcha | cant find much in google about that subject | 14:40 |
| urthmover | menu.lst is part of the grub configuration | 14:40 |

| Trizicus | When I insert my external hard drive and unmount it is there a command in gnome to remount w/o physically plugging in the drive again (no I am not referring to mount) | 14:45 |
| erUSUL | Trizicus: gnome-mount /dev/whatever ? worked in hal days. not sure it it does anymore in karmic | 14:46 |
| pasjr | hal is in 9.10 but removed in 10.04 | 14:47 |
| Trizicus | erUSUL: What mounts the device automatically when I plug it in? | 14:47 |
| erUSUL | Trizicus: in karmic maybe is better. « devkit-disks --mount /dev/whatever » | 14:47 |
| pasjr | any lucid gurus in here? | 14:48 |

| blackshell | is menu.lst file missing in 9.10? | 14:49 |
| Trizicus | And yea what is replacing hal | 14:49 |
| pasjr | nothing they just did away with it, I am currently looking into excatly how tthey did that | 14:49 |
| erUSUL | !grub2 | blackshell | 14:49 |
| ubottu | blackshell: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 14:49 |
| VCoolio | Dr_Willis: to call all arguments except the first: ${*:2} <-- calls all starting with $2 | 14:49 |

| pasjr | I know Ubuntu+1 is for lucid, however no one on there at this time | 14:49 |
| yassine | how do i access grub's interactive shell at boot time ? | 14:49 |
| Trizicus | is grub2 out of beta yet? | 14:49 |
| qu4nt | blackshell : there is no menu.lst in 9.10 any longer because that was a part of grub and in 9.10 standard is grub2 | 14:50 |
| erUSUL | blackshell: it is; grub2 used in karmic does not use menu.lst. read the docs to know how to tweak it | 14:50 |
| mka | blackshell, yes it's no longer used | 14:50 |
| blackshell | so how do i edit the booting operation? | 14:50 |

| pasjr | ect/defaults/grub | 14:51 |
| lunixx | jccl thanks,, but I hav OSes on two different harddrives and I think that the reason why grub doesnt find vista is because of the crappy Vista bootloader? When I select Vista harddrive to boot up first in bios, vista boots nicely, when I select ubuntu9.10 to boot first, grub displays the boot list and it finds XP-pro harddrive, another Linux harddrive but the \harddrive vith Vista dont show up. Editing this file is supposed to fix it, i think, | 14:51 |
| Trizicus | yassine: Does Ubuntu use the latest and greatest? | 14:51 |
| leee | can somebody tell me how to use Pan | 14:51 |
| yassine | Trizicus, yes | 14:51 |
| pasjr | 9.10 - 10.04 you use /ect/default/grub to mod your boot | 14:51 |
| e01 | hello, i have a problem with UNR 9.10, i have installed mac4lin , then removed it, but it replace the contact list icons on my pidgin | 14:51 |
| leee | how to use pan | 14:52 |
| e01 | i was trying to reinstall pidgin, but mac icons still exists and can't change them | 14:52 |
| yassine | pasjr, i need to access the shell now i have a screwed kernel configured need to select a working one | 14:52 |
| Trizicus | yassine: I'm looking and it says 1.97 beta 4 | 14:52 |
| erUSUL | leee: configure it (add news server). subscribe to some newgroups, profit | 14:52 |

| reduz | hey guys | 14:53 |
| reduz | my pulseaudio is doing gibberish every time i play something just when it opens a stream | 14:53 |
| reduz | any idea why? | 14:53 |
| jcc1 | there is a boot grup windows howto on tldp, I believe you have to do something along the lines od copying the boot sector on the windows drive and using that. I haven't done this in quite sometime, but did have this setup with XP. It seems to me I found the needed info at tldp.org | 14:53 |
| reduz | this is fresh installed ubuntu | 14:53 |
| pasjr | or you can boot from live cd and rebuild your kernel that way | 14:53 |
| mka | reduz, what about alsa? | 14:54 |
| Milp | Hm does anyone know where ubuntu stores the network configurations? | 14:54 |
| yassine | Trizicus, sorry miss understood your question was thinking that ubuntu is using a stable 2.0 which is not the case | 14:54 |
| technoviking | the ucf us off by default in UBunru Desktop correct? | 14:54 |
| leee | please tell me some usenet servers | 14:54 |
| reduz | mka, i don't know, last time i disabled pulseaudio i was left with no sound at all forever and with no chance of fixing it, so i don't want to try | 14:54 |
| Trizicus | yassine: Yea so it is still not stable; are there plans to make it stable? | 14:54 |
| reduz | even if i reenabled pulseuadio, i lost sound | 14:54 |
| yassine | pasjr, even pressing esc does not get me into the shell i have an usb keyboard maybe that is the reason? | 14:55 |
| mka | reduz, ok. good luck then. | 14:55 |
| pasjr | could be, try the live cd and you can access your hard drive and rebulid kernel that way | 14:55 |
| reduz | mka, yeah. i don't even know why pulseaudio exists in the first place, but nothing to do about it :( | 14:55 |
| mka | reduz, I don't know anything about disabling pulseaudio, i thought you could select alsa over pulseaudio | 14:56 |
| Exetubin | i need help with removing the black borders in my PS3 Karmic | 14:56 |
| yassine | Trizicus, certainly the only thing i can say now is that the configuration process is now a pain and everything else but user friendly | 14:56 |
| reduz | mka, as far as i know you can't as pulseaudio routes anything alsa to it | 14:56 |
| Exetubin | i need help with removing the black borders in my PS3 Karmic | 14:56 |
| reduz | mka, you have to uninstall it for it to stop working | 14:56 |
| Trizicus | yassine: Yea which is why I ask :D. I checked and grub2 stable is out but not defaulted or even an update in 9.10 so I presume that it has to be manually installed? | 14:57 |
| pasjr | all the config files are in 9.10 and 10.04, they are just in different local's | 14:57 |
| mka | Milp, /etc/network ? | 14:57 |
| Milp | mka thanks | 14:57 |
| pasjr | time to blow smoke see you all later :);;;;; | 14:58 |
| mka | pasjr, to "grep" the attention of the person you are talking to, using his/her name might help | 14:58 |
| mka | I am late | 14:59 |

| OerHeks | yassine hold SHIFT during boottime, to enter grub menu | 15:01 |
| Exetubin | anyone here have any experience with FBSet? | 15:01 |
| yassine | OerHeks, let me try that | 15:02 |
| mka | reduz, I am on intrepid liveCD, there is System > Preferences > Sound, does it exist in karmic? | 15:02 |
| yassine | OerHeks, shift + esc ? | 15:03 |
| OerHeks | yassine only shift | 15:03 |
| reduz | mka, yes but 1) no mention to pulseaudio in karmic 2) even if mentioned, switching to something else doesn't disable it | 15:03 |
| yassine | OerHeks, its not working :( | 15:03 |
| qu4nt | reduz, mka: try using system -> preferences -> multimedia-system | 15:04 |
| reduz | qu4nt, doesn't exist | 15:06 |
| qu4nt | im in 9.10, have german localization, there is a entry called "multimedia-system", dont know how its called in english localization, i also have the entry "klang" , equal to "sound" in english | 15:07 |

| piglit | sync3times, i can click things on the pannel below but i cant click any window (like alt f4 a window) xev is saying things like : focusout event serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x4400001 keys: 200000 and lot more zeros... | 15:26 |
| urthmover | where can I find the icon for evolution I've created a startup bash script for it..and I'd like to use the default evolution icon ('m on 9.10) | 15:26 |
| mateus | erUSUL, thank you very much | 15:26 |
| Guest29796 | Good day all, having panel problem Panel opens in gnome, but xfce it wont open. opens in xfce through terminal, however when i close terminal panel closes also. any suggestions? | 15:26 |
| sync3times | piglit, does it say button up and button down when you click mouse buttons? | 15:26 |
| erUSUL | mateus: no problem | 15:26 |
| qu4nt | petro, my windows mobile has an option to disable charging over usb | 15:27 |
| jcc1 | petro, for what it's worth, I worked as elect. tech for a long time and charge issues on 99% of hardware have absolutely nothing to do with filesystem access | 15:28 |
| nastas | Guest29796: i'm not sure but i think in xfce you have to create the panel | 15:28 |
| jcc1 | you can totally trash a filesystem but it should still charge | 15:28 |
| petro | jcc1: cool, i've reset it see if that works | 15:28 |
| jcc1 | hopefully | 15:28 |
| Guest29796 | it was working untill i did a update | 15:28 |
| petro | jcc1: it works now apparently :D | 15:29 |
| nastas | Guest29796: did you try to make a new panel? | 15:29 |
| petro | qu4nt: thanks a lot dude :) | 15:29 |
| petro | jcc1: i appreciate the help :) | 15:29 |
| jcc1 | Yea! | 15:29 |
| jcc1 | no prob | 15:29 |
| Guest29796 | not sure how to do that verry new to this OS | 15:29 |
| Guest29796 | have been reading for days. with no luck | 15:30 |
| piglit | sync3times, no no button up and button down (btw the error started when the system was working without any problems for an hour or so) | 15:30 |
| nastas | Guest29796: are you on xfce now? | 15:30 |
| * poot shit | 15:30 | |
| Guest29796 | yes i am | 15:30 |
| * poot butt | 15:30 | |
| * poot turd | 15:30 | |
| sync3times | piglit, you tried rebooting? | 15:31 |
| nastas | do you have a bottom panel? | 15:31 |
| VCoolio | urthmover: try the apps folder inside your icon theme, search for evolution-mail | 15:31 |
| Guest29796 | yes | 15:31 |
| piglit | sync3times, yes then the error is gone for a while but returns after a random time sometimes an hour sometimes less | 15:31 |
| nastas | right click on the bottom panel | 15:31 |
| qu4nt | Guest29796, if you start it out of the console, sure it closes if you kill that console | 15:31 |
| Guest29796 | ok | 15:31 |
| xtjacob | hello, I have ubuntu on a laptop, and for some reason when I choose restart after it shuts down it just sits there and does not restart. I have to press the power button before it will turn off | 15:32 |
| sync3times | piglit, are you using programs that seize the mouse for some reason? | 15:32 |
| sync3times | piglit, games or something? | 15:32 |
| nastas | Guest29796: are you making a new panel now? | 15:32 |
| br0kenarr0w | erUSUL, its not working :( | 15:32 |
| Guest29796 | how can i start it outside the terminal | 15:33 |
| macman_ | how can i make it so everytime i open any video it will open in vlc .. im tired of the mobie player .. i went to default appliactions and i put vlc to run but nothing | 15:33 |
| br0kenarr0w | erUSUL, ecryptfs-mount-private just returns nothing | 15:33 |
| VCoolio | urthmover: sorry, the icon should be 'evolution' (check the file /usr/share/applications/evolution-mail.desktop | 15:33 |
| BLOODCLAW | how would i find out what ports i have open/closed? | 15:33 |
| urthmover | VCoolio: great thanks | 15:33 |
| jcc1 | xtjacob, I had that prob with a XP system once, and although I don't remember exactly what, it had something to do with bios settings | 15:33 |
| Guest29796 | not sure how to make new panel | 15:33 |
| faileas | BLOODCLAW: got a firewall set up? | 15:33 |
| sync3times | BLOODCLAW, netstat -a | 15:33 |
| clrg | macman_: You can set it in the properties-window of the file you want to be associated with vlc | 15:33 |
| nastas | Guest29796: just right click in bottom panel and make a new panel | 15:33 |
| qu4nt | Guest29796, under gnome u choose system -> prefereces -> "startprogramme" (thats in german, there ust be a similar entry under english localization) | 15:33 |
| BLOODCLAW | faileas: i have a router? | 15:33 |
| piglit | sync3times, no we do not use those | 15:34 |
| BLOODCLAW | faileas: i dont have any client side firewalls however | 15:34 |
| macman_ | got it thanks | 15:34 |
| Dr_Willis | xtjacob: thats sounds like some good old apci/power management bug - used tobe real common issue ages ago. No idea on a proper fix, check the forums perahps for that specific laptop. Its possible some kernel update may fix it in the future (thats how my laptop wioth that issue got fixed a few months back) | 15:34 |
| faileas | BLOODCLAW: well you'd have to check the router | 15:34 |
| clrg | qu4nt: Startup programs, I guess | 15:34 |
| Guest29796 | i'm in xfce not gnome | 15:34 |
| clrg | qu4nt: Correction: Its called startup applications. | 15:34 |
| BLOODCLAW | faileas: would netstat -a tell me? | 15:34 |
| macman_ | clrg, how do i know it made changes or saved ? | 15:34 |
| qu4nt | clrg, yeah whatever ;) | 15:34 |
| clrg | macman_: By trying it =) | 15:34 |
| faileas | BLOODCLAW: assuming you have a defailt set up, it isn't | 15:34 |
| jcc1 | DR_Willis, exactly, I remember fixing it in BIOS on an XP - HP laptop | 15:34 |
| coop3r | hi i need some help with installation please can someone pm me? | 15:35 |
| macman_ | tried it still opening in movie player | 15:35 |
| faileas | i THINK you need to look up port forwarding, and your global IP | 15:35 |
| xtjacob | Dr_Willis: but for some reason it just started. Never used to do it | 15:35 |
| nastas | Guest29796: did you right click the botom panel? | 15:35 |
| adac | For power saving reasons I tried to add echo min_power > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy in a root shell (as powertop suggests) but min_power never wil be written or maybe overwritten again. Any hints? | 15:35 |
| VCoolio | coop3r: just try in here, more people to respond | 15:35 |
| coop3r | ok | 15:35 |
| Guest29796 | i right click on bottom panel there is no make new panel option | 15:35 |
| itsnotstalking | why would my dns services stop working for a few minutes every now and then, like many times a day? should i go yell at my ISP? | 15:35 |
| clrg | macman_: What did you do exactly? Right-click, properties, tab "open with", select vlc | 15:35 |
| Dr_Willis | xtjacob: no idea on that then. Unless thers some new kernel bug with the last jkernel updates. Try the older kernles - see if it works with them. If it works with old.. but not new. File a bug report on the kewer kernels. | 15:35 |
| sync3times | piglit, Well, you could try stopping gdm, going down to a text login session and starting X via xinit This would be a minimal X session and if takes only an hour to reproduce the problem that could give you information on whether its hardware or software | 15:35 |
| macman_ | yes | 15:36 |
| nastas | what are the options? | 15:36 |
| josef_ | hi, I miss some colors when printing a pdf with envice, print test page from printer properties works fine all colors are printed. | 15:36 |
| xtjacob | Dr_Willis: ok, another weird thing is i don't think i've done a kernel update anytime soon | 15:36 |
| Tiders | Why would the USB startup disk creater be failing? | 15:36 |
| sirmike | test | 15:36 |
| clrg | macman_: Did you repeat it for every type of file you want to be opened in vlc? Like avi, ogg, wmv, mov.. | 15:36 |
| coop3r | i installed ubuntu with wubi and it said it was finished and told me to restart so i did. then when i started my computer i chose ubuntu and after a few seconds it took me to GNU GRUB thing and it wants me to type in commands like a terminal or something | 15:37 |
| piglit | sync3times, the strange thing is i can click on the panel below like get firefox or a console up but i cant klick firefox to go down in the upper right corner | 15:37 |
| macman_ | josef_, wow .. is that how you spell your name .. that is my first name also .. same spelling | 15:37 |
| qu4nt | Guest29796, open a terminal, type in gnome-panel and there should be an at least very small panel appearing somewhere. right click on it and it should say "create new panel" or something similar | 15:37 |
| br0kenarr0w | does anyone else know how to decrypt a encryptfs home directory with a username/password combo? | 15:37 |
| Guest29796 | costomise-add-Quit-restart-About xfce | 15:37 |

| nastas | add | 15:37 |
| sync3times | piglit, so the buttons work in certain situations? | 15:37 |

| piglit | sync3times, yes the mouse buttons work on the pannel below but NOT in the _ - x signs right above the window the console or firefox is in | 15:39 |
| riddlebox | what is a good cli bittorrent client? | 15:39 |
| qu4nt | coop3r, are there any entries at the grub screen? just take one and hit enter then | 15:40 |
| sync3times | piglit, just firefox, or a console window or other apps | 15:40 |
| Guest29796 | ok gnome panel opened clicked add new panel option. just added a horizontal panel | 15:40 |
| clrg | riddlebox: Try rtorrent | 15:40 |
| riddlebox | clrg, thanks | 15:40 |
| Guest29796 | bit once i closed terminal panel stayed | 15:40 |
| Guest29796 | will it still be there when i reboot?????? | 15:41 |
| coop3r | no qu4nt it says "[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device/file completions. ]" | 15:41 |
| nastas | Guest29796: i believe so | 15:41 |
| Guest29796 | thank you so much for your assistance | 15:41 |
| coop3r | then it has the command line and it says "sh:grub>" | 15:41 |
| qu4nt | Guest29796, you should add it on startup applications under system -> preferences | 15:41 |
| Undertow | Anyone know if I need to do anything special to get nvidia drivers working in 9.10? | 15:41 |

| piglit | only the pannel below seems to work | 15:42 |
| wallace | Is there any standard, simple backup system that I can use to create backups of files - I'm happy to write some simple scripts myself, but if there's anything that's common/standard I'd like to use that | 15:42 |
| Undertow | I used the hardware manager to install the nvidia drivers, X11 never loads and I cant get into recovery mode | 15:42 |
| wallace | ....I want to run this of cron on my server | 15:42 |
| Guest29796 | now what would cause open windows to go gray for a few sec & freeze the sys untill it returns to normal | 15:42 |
| Undertow | I have a garbage system with onboard video and I cant use both at the same time | 15:42 |
| Undertow | I tried editing modprobe.conf to disable agpgart and intel_agp | 15:43 |
| Undertow | also have tried using envy to set it up, no luck there either | 15:43 |
| jtaji | wallace: there are many options... but take a look at rdiff-backup | 15:44 |

| VCoolio | I'm trying to make a little script to add aliases to ~/.bash_aliases but I can't get it to re-read the file after editing; the terminal I ran the add alias script in doesn't recognize the new alias; using 'source or . ~/.bashaliases' doesn't work | 15:44 |

| e01 | how can i change splash theme in Ubuntu netbook remix 9.10 | 15:45 |
| piglit | sync3times, i can go into text mode and start the X environment without gdm, but where can i find the right log file which can give me a change to retrieve error information? | 15:45 |
| coop3r | piglit can i pm you | 15:46 |
| VCoolio | so what command to use in a script to have the terminal where I ran the script in re-read the bash_aliases file? | 15:46 |
| nero_ | i downloaded madwifi trunk and saved it on my desktop how do i install it now? | 15:46 |
| piglit | coop3r sure you can | 15:46 |
| Tiders | Im trying to create a startup disk using the Ubuntu 9.04 CD that I requested and had mailed... Im using a Lexar USB stick and here's the log file when I try to do this and this happens every time with multiple sticks http://pastie.org/764015 | 15:46 |
| scunizi | piglit: perhaps.. /var/log | 15:46 |
| oCean_ | VCoolio: running a script will re-spawn a new shell. The 'source' command will read the file in *that* shell, after exit of the script, your current shell will not have read-in the new settings | 15:46 |
| sync3times | piglit, wouldnt bother since sometime the buttons are working. I would try cleaning out all settings for your desktop environment. Let gnome or whatever reset itself. move the settings directories to a temp directories? | 15:47 |
| VCoolio | oCean_: hm, I see; thanks for pointing that out | 15:47 |
| piglit | scunizi, ok but which of the log files do i need in this case? | 15:47 |
| oCean_ | VCoolio: so you'll still have to 'source' the newly edited file in your current shell | 15:47 |
| piglit | sync3times, it is a fresh install .... | 15:48 |
| piglit | 9.10 btw | 15:48 |
| sync3times | piglit, wow | 15:48 |
| scunizi | piglit: no idea. I totally missed the first part of your problem.. so other than you looking for logs I'm ignorant | 15:48 |

| wallace | jtaji: rdiff appears to be network based. First up, I want to do the backups to a separate partition - external drive. I'll worry about offsiting them later - is there anything you'd recommend? (I can write a simple shellscript using tar, but I'd like something which will keep a few copies for longer term recovery) | 15:49 |
| sync3times | piglit, create a new user and work inside that enviroment and see if it does the same thing | 15:49 |

| jtaji | wallace: you can certainly rdiff-backup to a local disk... actually I've done that in the past, and then a simple rsync of the rdiff-backup data offsite | 15:50 |
| ubottu | Tiders, please see my private message | 15:50 |
| wallace | jtaji: I'm more worried about keeping them safe in the event of drive failure than a serious disaster | 15:50 |
| jtaji | wallace: that way you can pull old versions from rdiff-backup data locally | 15:50 |
| Tiders | petro, Yes but it doesnt tell you what to do if it fails | 15:50 |
| Tiders | petro, Wrong person | 15:50 |
| Tiders | petsounds, Yes but it doesnt tell you what to do if it fails | 15:50 |
| wallace | jtaji: ahh, it does local too eh? I had a quick look at the site, and it just talked about running over ssh | 15:50 |

| jtaji | wallace: yes indeed | 15:51 |
| om26er | petsounds: try unetbootin | 15:51 |
| piglit | sync3times, is a older kernel a good idea? | 15:52 |
| wallace | jtaji, cool, will check it out in more detail, thanks :) | 15:52 |
| Snausages | piglit: stuff that works for you is a good idea, don't worry about the age of the solution. | 15:52 |
| sync3times | piglit, no, the problem is gnome, have you run update-manager and installed all the updates? | 15:52 |
| piglit | sync3times, yes al the updates are installed, was the first ting i did | 15:53 |
| Tiders | petsounds, Do you know? | 15:53 |
| sync3times | piglit, setup a new user and work though that environment for a while. The only thing I can think of is that some customizaton that you did post-install has messed up something | 15:54 |
| petsounds | Tiders, how about unetbootin? or you can dd the iso directly to usb. it's all the same. | 15:54 |

| om26er | jaywebster: i would recommend ubuntuforums.org | 16:06 |
| Tiders | faileas, Even if you cant select the right version? | 16:06 |

| akos_ | Hello! Is there a command line trick to open up a program (Virtualbox), and make it open in the second workspace, and make it start maximized? | 16:07 |
| faileas | granted, i mostly run it off windows, so i download the latest when i need it ;p | 16:07 |
| Tiders | faileas, I cant do it with a CD? | 16:07 |
| acovrig | how can I print to a PIXMA MX860 Printer? | 16:07 |
| faileas | Tiders: you would have to make an image of the cd, i think | 16:07 |
| VCoolio | akos_: check compiz plugins for that, or check out devilspie | 16:07 |
| Dr_Willis | susanne: i recall a similer issue with my Canon printer. Ive not tried it in ages - Demo page worked.. other pages colors were all wrong. | 16:08 |

| Ionosphere | is someone here who could help me with the use of tripod ? | 16:08 |
| akos_ | VCoolio, ok thx | 16:08 |
| jcc1 | Tiders, you can also do it from the command line with dd | 16:08 |
| acovrig | I tried that, can't find anything (PIXMA IP4000 is the losest thing I found) | 16:09 |
| faileas | Tiders: I mostly use KDE, or custom varients of ubuntu, so i may be wrong | 16:09 |
| Dr_Willis | yassine: i dont think you want to use a BS of 60G - ive rarely seen BS be over 1024 or 2048 or sol anything over that From waht i read.. dosent give any speed gain. | 16:09 |
| susanne | Dr_Willis: Did you find a solution for that? | 16:09 |
| Dr_Willis | susanne: other then to never buy cannon again.. no.. the printer is in the back room.. I hate the thing. | 16:10 |
| matu | dont you think having 135 process decrease the battery lifetime ? | 16:10 |
| Dr_Willis | susanne: wife just uses its card slots to print photos every so often | 16:10 |
| __BS__ | I'm considering the new asus eee 1201n. I'm thinking about what I want to do with it between the time I bring it home and go fully live with UNR. So, pointers towards the following will help reduce my search time. First I think I image the thing (preserve Windows 7 partition, etc.) probably via mondo/mindi. Then I shrink the partition (qparted) to, say 20 GB (250 GB disk). Then run vmware... | 16:10 |
| Dr_Willis | matu: its more of an issue of cpu load. a sleeping proicess is not taking up any cpu. | 16:10 |
| __BS__ | ...converter to get a virtual. Then install UNR as dual boot. Then bring in the virtual via vmware player and/or virtual box. Along the way I'll probably toss gnome in favour of kde (kde-desktop? instead of kubuntu-desktop). Does all this sort of hang together? | 16:10 |
| yassine | Dr_Willis, thanks, i only want to create an lvm volume behind /dev/loop0 and since it will be used for my virtual machines it should be big enough. do you have an idea how to proceed in here? | 16:10 |
| Tiders | Okay what program can I use to rip a Ubuntu ISO | 16:10 |
| susanne | Dr Willis: well but if the testpage can be printed, there must be some hope, i guess? | 16:10 |
| matu | does it really take on power ? | 16:11 |
| Dr_Willis | yassine: not really. | 16:11 |
| jcc1 | yassine, you just tried to write 5000 blocks at 60GB each, no wonder mem was exhausted, I would have been, too :-) | 16:11 |
| matu | 0 ? | 16:11 |
| matu | no | 16:11 |
| scunizi | Tiders: ok... rip? open it? or burn it? | 16:11 |
| usr13 | Tiders: "rip a Ubuntu ISO"? | 16:11 |
| erUSUL | Tiders: sudo cat /dev/cdrom > image_file_ubuntu.iso | 16:11 |
| Dr_Willis | susanne: yea. I never did look into it much. The silly printer insists i got 2 'blue' ink carts in it half the time when i power it up. when I do have the proper carts installed.. i have to constantly reset the silly thing. No more Cannon printers EVER for me. | 16:11 |
| usr13 | Tiders: Please re-phrase your question. | 16:12 |
| yassine | jcc1, thanks, i only want to create an lvm volume behind /dev/loop0 and since it will be used for my virtual machines it should be big enough. do you have an idea how to proceed in here? | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | yassine: use a smaller BS size and a larger count. perhaps | 16:12 |
| Tiders | usr13, How do you rip a Ubuntu install CD to get an ISO | 16:12 |
| pierre_ | ok | 16:12 |
| pierre_ | i dsont unerstand | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: the 'dd' command can copy a cd to an iso file. No 'ripping' needed. :) | 16:12 |
| cryptk | Tiders, it is easier to just download the ISO from the internet, but there are several programs out there that can create an ISO form a CD/DVD | 16:13 |
| cryptk | such as dd | 16:13 |
| susanne | Dr_Willis: Thank you anyway. Perhaps I will try it in the forums... I can understand your struggles with Canon, but I was very surprised finding the model in the printer list under linux | 16:13 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, does the cat thing that erUSUL Just told me work? Cause thats what its doing right now | 16:13 |
| Dr_Willis | susanne: i recall it did work for me under other releases. i noticed that issue in beta testing. but never did look in to it. | 16:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: cat and dd should both copy the whole image to a file. | 16:14 |
| clrg | Tiders: man isodump | 16:14 |
| usr13 | Tiders: dd if=/dev/hdc of=ubuntu.iso | 16:14 |
| susanne | Dr_Willis: thank you. Will go and have lunch now... ^^ | 16:14 |
| Dr_Willis | I think cp may even work.. | 16:14 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, Alright it should be working then thanks | 16:14 |
| usr13 | Tiders: sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=cd.iso | 16:14 |
| usr13 | something like that ^^^ | 16:15 |
| MEMEME | Is there any risk when constant writing and reading from my external windows hdd's using ntfs-3g? also I have besides my usb hdd, one connected on firewire. is firewire supported, or is that only for usb? | 16:15 |

| Arsin | How do I mount a .bin as a virtual disk | 16:16 |
| usr13 | cryptk: It's pretty easy to just make an ISO image from the CD. | 16:16 |
| === john is now known as Guest72426 | ||
| yassine | Dr_Willis, yes that was correct dd if=/dev/zero of=/home... bs=1024M count=61440 gives 60G total too | 16:16 |
| usr13 | cryptk: You just have to know what device name goes to the CDROM. | 16:17 |
| jcc1 | you could try ###dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile_10MB bs=10485760 count=1 just substitute the 10 for 60 including the 10485760, you are looking for 60*1024*1024 as the number | 16:17 |
| Dr_Willis | yassine: 1024M is huge also.. :) normally i see BS like 1024K | 16:17 |
| Dr_Willis | The joys of dd. :) | 16:18 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, It appears that Unetbootin is stuck at 5% (copying and extracting files) and isnt moving at all | 16:18 |
| Guest72426 | how to change or configure the startup sounds? | 16:18 |
| jcc1 | bs just says how many bytes to write at one time, default is 512 | 16:18 |

| Tiders | om26er, Maybe | 16:18 |
| === basti2 is now known as basti | ||

| yassine | Dr_Willis, does it really affect the performance of the file( since it will be formated later with ext3) ? | 16:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: it can take some time. | 16:19 |
| erUSUL | Arsin: convert it to iso | 16:19 |

| ubottu | Arsin, please see my private message | 16:19 |
| Tiders | usr13, I got it | 16:19 |
| Dr_Willis | yassine: the bs size just affexts the speed of the dd command i recall. using no BS - can make dd a lot slower. | 16:19 |
| === Guest72426 is now known as manezao | ||

| Hammit | anyone with experience installing on software raid? | 16:19 |
| manezao | how to change or configure the startup sounds? | 16:19 |
| Dr_Willis | yassine: up to a point a larger bs helps. but beyond that point it dosent metter.. but ive mainly done it with READING cd's to iso and so on. as far as making an empty file. the bs may not matter as much | 16:19 |
| erUSUL | Arsin: the kernel only supports iso9660 natively. some bin files are compatible some are not | 16:20 |
| erUSUL | Arsin: try | 16:20 |
| yassine | Dr_Willis, now i have a bit more understanding of how dd works thanks | 16:20 |

| ubottu | Package/file acetoneiso does not exist in karmic | 16:20 |
| erUSUL | Arsin: http://www.acetoneteam.org/ | 16:20 |

| * om26er thinks streaming in linux is far faster than windows | 16:24 | |
| jcc1 | jarray52, check the options for your network card and see how to assign a different unused interrupt | 16:24 |
| Pip | clrg: it could increase the speed | 16:24 |

| Pip | iceroot: so how to do with my wish ? | 16:26 |
| Xfact | erUSUL: I have to add those again then? | 16:26 |
| iceroot | Hammit: use alternate cd, its detecting raid by default | 16:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Hammit: i was thinking /boot/ in the past needed to be on a non raid partition.. but that was ages ago. there may be work arounds now | 16:26 |
| Arsin | nvm found it | 16:26 |
| Hammit | iceroot: i have tried that | 16:26 |
| iceroot | Pip: as is said 3 times before. create /etc/resolv.conf and put in the nameserver | 16:26 |
| erUSUL | Xfact: probably you messwed up saomething when adding them. just remove to get to a good state then add them again one at a time and carefully | 16:26 |
| Hammit | Dr_Willis: yes, boot is my prob | 16:26 |
| jcc1 | Hammit, when it comes time to do the formatting, instead of accepting the defaults, use the custom option and setup md (software raid) partitions, then join them in mirror or whatever, there are instructions out on the 'net | 16:26 |

| Burzmali | jccl, One track audio, one track data and an unknown number of nulls in the middle. | 16:38 |
| Maletor | k | 16:38 |
| Zeonisis | I don't have /etc/rc.local :D | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | Maletor: see what governor are you using | 16:38 |
| mka | clrg, why would you want to touch a file when you are going to edit it thereafter? | 16:39 |
| clrg | Zeonisis: /etc/rc.d/rc.local perhaps ? | 16:39 |
| TruthLiker | Is there a way to search .deb package files for their contents ? ( to get a list of the files the package will install - each of them ) | 16:39 |
| clrg | mka: Pip asked how to create a file. touch is the perfect way to do so. | 16:39 |
| erUSUL | TruthLiker: packages.ubuntu.com | 16:39 |
| TruthLiker | clrg, faith. | 16:39 |
| erUSUL | TruthLiker: or install apt-file | 16:39 |
| Burzmali | jccl Physically, the disc looks like a bullseye | 16:39 |
| TruthLiker | I want ot do it offline. | 16:39 |
| Zeonisis | I have rc1.d, rc2.d, and so on to rc6.d | 16:39 |
| mka | clrg, agree | 16:39 |
| jcc1 | The cd is a file system so it will only mount at one point, you need to know the type of data, I would think and then use the appropriate app, for example, I've used dvdrip to pull an audio track | 16:39 |
| Pip | clrg: but I want to avoid using vi | 16:40 |
| TruthLiker | I want to search my DVD's offline. | 16:40 |
| TruthLiker | for the contents of the packages. | 16:40 |
| mka | Pip, you can use nano or gedit | 16:40 |
| TruthLiker | anyone know ? | 16:40 |
| _raven_ | how to play (and sort) mxf files without avid? | 16:40 |
| clrg | Pip: Use nano, vim, emacs, or even gedit if you don't like vi | 16:40 |
| Zeonisis | Gedit is pretty good... | 16:40 |
| jcc1 | nedit?? | 16:41 |
| Burzmali | jcc1, Well, Ubuntu identifies the audio and data sections as separate file systems | 16:41 |
| clrg | Zeonisis: If you like guis. | 16:41 |
| Burzmali | jcc1 Physically, the disc looks like a bullseye | 16:41 |
| Zeonisis | True. But I do, at least in addition to consoles :) | 16:41 |
| Zeonisis | Both are good... | 16:41 |
| iceroot | Burzmali: because that are two partitions | 16:41 |
| mka | clrg, arent vim and vi the same thing under ubuntu? | 16:41 |
| iceroot | mka: no | 16:42 |
| jcc1 | seperate files or seperate file systems? if it sees seperate file systems then mount each one seperately and manually | 16:42 |
| iceroot | mka: vi is the real vi and vim is the thing most people are using and thinking that it is vi | 16:42 |
| Burzmali | iceroot: I've figured that much out, now how do I make ubuntu play nice with them? | 16:42 |
| Zeonisis | Guys, I can't find that file... | 16:42 |
| iceroot | Zeonisis: what fileß | 16:43 |
| Zeonisis | Back to my first questtion. | 16:43 |
| iceroot | Burzmali: sorry never tried | 16:43 |
| clrg | mka: Nope. vim isn't installed in a fresh ubuntu installation, for example | 16:43 |
| mka | iceroot, vi in ubuntu is a symbolic link to vim | 16:43 |
| iceroot | mka: wrong | 16:43 |
| Burzmali | jcc1: Separate systems, Ubuntu mounts the first then tries to mount the second to the same location throwing an error message | 16:43 |
| iceroot | mka: vim is not installed on ubuntu | 16:43 |
| clrg | mka: After you installed vim, yes | 16:43 |
| jcc1 | if they are on a cd and the cd is being automatically mounted, just unmount it then sudo mount filesystem1 and again for filesystem2 | 16:43 |
| iceroot | mka: vi is a link to vim.tiny imo | 16:43 |
| mka | clrg, iceroot, I am on ubuntu liveCD and I have just confirmed that | 16:44 |
| Zeonisis | Why are there so many people not saying anything? | 16:44 |
| Burzmali | jcc1: How would I manually mount them if they are both at the same /dev/sr? address | 16:44 |
| mka | iceroot, you are right, vi is a link to vim.tiny | 16:44 |
| iceroot | mka: that vi is a link to vim.tiny? great | 16:44 |
| jcc1 | (on two different mountpoints of your choosing) | 16:44 |
| iceroot | mka: but vim.tiny is not good. normally you want vim | 16:45 |
| mka | iceroot, so vi and vim under ubuntu is pretty much the same thing | 16:45 |
| iceroot | mka: no! | 16:45 |
| jcc1 | good question, I'll have to think about that for a minute :-) | 16:45 |
| snake | I'm trying to decide which gentoo release is best for an intel processor. but over at gentoo.org (Get gentoo! tab) It has confusing names like, alpha, and x86. The only one I get is AMD64 obviously AMD. could some one point me to the right one? | 16:45 |
| MarekTP | Thanx for help. See You | 16:45 |
| iceroot | mka: install vim and then see the difference | 16:45 |
| Burzmali | jcc1: yes but how to segregate them, mount gets both in one shot | 16:45 |
| erUSUL | snake: ask in #gentoo | 16:45 |
| clrg | mka: Definitively not. My installation shows that vi is a link to vim.basic | 16:45 |
| jtaji | mka: installing vim-nox or vim-gnome will get you the complete vim | 16:45 |
| wallace | I want to keep a set number of files, and append an increasing number to older copies, within a shell script. e.g. if I have 'file' I want to move it to 'file.1' and if 'file.1' exists I want to move it to 'file.2' Is there an easy/existing way to do this? | 16:45 |
| usr13 | clrg: use vim | 16:46 |
| clrg | mka: diff vim vim.basic shows it ain't the same.. | 16:46 |
| erUSUL | wallace: probably better is to ask in #bash | 16:46 |
| wallace | erUSUL, k, will do - thanks | 16:46 |
| coop_ | hi | 16:47 |
| Dr_Willis | snake: x86 is intel. :) 32bit | 16:47 |
| Dr_Willis | snake: amd64 is also intel... 64bit. :) | 16:47 |
| mka | clrg, iceroot, jtaji, ok I understand you guys, but vi is not vi but a limited vim under ubuntu | 16:47 |
| coop_ | i am trying to install xchat and i found it in the ubuntu software center and i dont see the install button | 16:47 |
| coop_ | lol | 16:47 |
| usr13 | coop_: Use irssi | 16:47 |
| iceroot | mka: vi is not vim | 16:47 |
| Dr_Willis | mka: by default ubuntu has vim-tiny installed. You can install the full vim package if you want | 16:47 |
| jtaji | mka: not exactly, the default vim is a limited vim, vim-tiny | 16:48 |
| Burzmali | jcc1: At this point I am mostly trying to back the CD up and in most cases Brasero has been able to convert these to .toc / bin files, but this one has a big fat ring of emptiness in the middle that is confounding it | 16:48 |
| clrg | mka: And vim.basic is not vim. vim is not installed by default. | 16:48 |
| coop_ | usr13 i want to use xchat | 16:48 |
| kjhubbard | hello room. i have a question related to ubuntu lamp server administration. what should i be monitoring regularly to make sure the system has not been compromised? which log files? is there a performance monitor -like applet that i can run? | 16:48 |
| usr13 | mka: I highly recommend vim | 16:48 |
| iceroot | coop_: sudo apt-get install xchat | 16:48 |
| iceroot | usr13: yes i am asking me why vim is not installed on ubuntu by default | 16:48 |
| usr13 | coop_: Select xchat and click apply (or something like that). | 16:48 |
| jcc1 | What kind of CD is this, sounds like nothing I've had experience with | 16:48 |
| coop_ | pakage not found | 16:48 |
| clrg | usr13: I like vim too, but on most machines I work it isn't installed, which leaves vi. And vi isn't that bad, I know people programming in vi | 16:49 |
| Dr_Willis | vim is not installed by default - due to 'space' on the cd. :) | 16:49 |
| usr13 | iceroot: Well, I thought it was... It used to be. | 16:49 |
| jcc1 | You could also check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_9660 for clues | 16:49 |
| jtaji | iceroot: only so much can fit on the cd | 16:49 |
| usr13 | clrg: Did you issue command vim ? | 16:49 |
| Dr_Willis | vi tiny is smaller. :) sio its the default | 16:49 |
| iceroot | coop_: package xchat not found? | 16:49 |
| mka | clrg, iceroot, jtaji, usr13, Dr_Willis, ok the bottom line now, vim.tiny and vim.basic are not vim? | 16:49 |
| coop_ | yep | 16:49 |
| coop_ | irssi not found either | 16:49 |
| clrg | mka: Yes | 16:49 |
| Dr_Willis | mka: they are vim with different options | 16:49 |
| coop_ | i think im having problems with apt-get | 16:49 |
| iceroot | coop_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xchat | 16:50 |
| coop_ | ok | 16:50 |
| jcc1 | mka, try gvim install and it will pick up what it needs | 16:50 |
| iceroot | coop_: you dont want to use irssi | 16:50 |
| Burzmali | jcc1: Older game CD, the install disc for the 7th Guest. Lots of games used to keep the music in wavs on a separate track before the advent of mp3s. | 16:50 |
| clrg | coop_: sudo bash -c "apt-get update; apt-get install irssi" | 16:50 |
| _raven_ | how to play (and sort) MXF files without avid? | 16:50 |
| Dr_Willis | mka: at one time the packatge names were vim-tiny and vim-full | 16:50 |
| coop_ | i know iceroot | 16:50 |
| usr13 | I've been just updating / upgrading my systems for so long, I don't have a good idea of what's in the default install anymore. | 16:50 |
| Dr_Willis | I perfer weechat 0.3.0 to IRSSI now a days. :) | 16:50 |
| * coop_ likes xchat | 16:50 | |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: bitchx because of the cool name (like LaTeX) :) | 16:51 |
| clrg | usr13: Install virtualbox, and try the default installation | 16:51 |
| jcc1 | New to me, I'd cheat, get an iso ripper for windows and try it there :-) | 16:51 |
| usr13 | I've done (or assisted) some new installs for others, but.... never paid much attention | 16:51 |
| mka | Guys I know much about vim-full and that vim.tiny does not support syntax highlighting, but what do I explain this, ubuntu comes with vi or vim? | 16:51 |
| usr13 | clrg: good advise. | 16:51 |
| ignacio | naxo | 16:51 |
| usr13 | clrg: I may do that. | 16:51 |
| iceroot | mka: vi | 16:51 |
| jcc1 | install has vi, after install use repos for vim | 16:51 |
| === BLOODCLAW is now known as SteveIgnorant | ||
| mka | ok, iceroot then please allow me to say that vim.basic and vim.tiny are vi because vi is a symbolic link to those | 16:52 |
| Burzmali | jcc1: Worth a shot I guess. I have a virtual box lying around somewhere. | 16:52 |
| jtaji | mka: you seem to be getting to answers for that question here... I think vim-tiny is a minimal compile of vim, not vi | 16:52 |
| iceroot | mka: the absolut main difference betwenn vi and vim is taht vim cant use keys like the arrows | 16:52 |
| coop_ | ok thanks i have one more question | 16:52 |
| jtaji | mka: *2 answers | 16:52 |
| coop_ | i installed ubuntu what is the root password | 16:52 |
| coop_ | ? | 16:52 |
| iceroot | mka: not using for controlling in the file i mean | 16:52 |
| usr13 | Yea, just do: sudo apt-get install vim | 16:52 |
| erUSUL | !root | coop_ | 16:52 |
| ubottu | coop_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 16:52 |
| iceroot | !root | coop_ | 16:52 |
| jcc1 | coop, there isn't one, use sudo | 16:53 |
| coop_ | .. | 16:53 |
| mka | Ok, this issue is solved, ubuntu comes with vim | 16:53 |
| clrg | !sudo | coop | 16:53 |
| ubottu | coop: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 16:53 |
| coop_ | ya i know about sudo | 16:53 |
| IdleOne | coop_: alrighty then, use it | 16:53 |
| iceroot | mka: ubuntu comes without vim | 16:53 |
| jpds | coop_: There is no root password. | 16:53 |
| coop_ | i am root on my ubuntu server | 16:53 |
| coop_ | :/ | 16:53 |
| jcc1 | if you want to use root in a terminal, try sudo su - | 16:53 |
| mka | here we go again | 16:53 |
| usr13 | coop_: Well there you go, just use it... | 16:53 |
| jpds | jcc1: sudo -i | 16:53 |
| coop_ | OH | 16:53 |
| erUSUL | !rootshell | jcc1 | 16:54 |
| coop_ | thanks | 16:54 |
| ubottu | jcc1: Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) | 16:54 |
| iceroot | jcc1: sudo -i never use sudo su | 16:54 |
| clrg | jpds: Wrong, there is an invalid password. Without one everyone could be root | 16:54 |
| jpds | clrg: Whatever. | 16:54 |
| clrg | iceroot: sudo bash xD | 16:54 |
| jtaji | mka: this can't be argued... Ubuntu comes with the package vim-tiny by default, you can install vim-nox or vim-gnome to get the full vim | 16:54 |
| coop_ | also the name of the computer user@ubuntu how do i change ubuntu | 16:54 |
| iceroot | clrg: sudo zsh | 16:54 |
| jcc1 | just out of curiousity, what's the diff between sudo -i and sudo su? | 16:54 |
| jtaji | mka: at least I thought it did | 16:54 |
| erUSUL | !hostname | coop_ | 16:54 |
| ubottu | coop_: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 16:54 |
| mka | jtaji, I understand that, what is this vim-tiny? is it vi or vim? | 16:54 |
| usr13 | jcc1: sudo -i or sudo su - will do same thing. | 16:55 |
| mka | jtaji, that is obvious | 16:55 |
| clrg | iceroot: Don't like zsh. I prefer ksh or bash | 16:55 |
| coop_ | thanks | 16:55 |
| iceroot | jcc1: the environment which will be set | 16:55 |
| Undertow | How can I blacklist agpgart-intel in modprobe.d/blacklist.conf? I have tried using blacklist intel_agp and blacklist apggart, it still shows up in dmesg | 16:55 |
| teage | Why is my Ubuntu distro freezing. Just little short freezes | 16:55 |
| jcc1 | OK, I'll stick with using root with root environment | 16:55 |
| iceroot | clrg: never tried ksh, is it worth watching? | 16:55 |
| teage | why does it do that | 16:55 |
| clrg | teage: Because you use all the ressources of your system | 16:55 |
| usr13 | jcc1: sudo -i is just a couple keystoraks less. | 16:55 |
| teage | ic | 16:55 |
| jcc1 | OK, good to know | 16:56 |
| jtaji | mka: less features, no syntax highlighting... it does seem to act more like vi | 16:56 |

| mka | thanks jtaji, usr13, clrg , Dr_Willis, iceroot for the patience and input | 16:56 |
| iceroot | mka: you are welcome | 16:56 |
| usr13 | mka: NP, send pizza and beer. | 16:57 |
| teage | thats weird though cause, ive tried other distros and they dont do it | 16:57 |
| mka | usr13, LOL! | 16:57 |
| teage | just ubuntu. | 16:57 |
| mka | !pizza | usr13 | 16:57 |

| clrg | ]!beer | clrg | 16:57 |
| clrg | My beer didn't double magically.. Was wort a try | 16:58 |
| mka | _raven_, tried vlc or mplayer? | 16:58 |
| _scavenger_ | _raven_: MPlayer'd be my guess. | 16:58 |
| _raven_ | mka yes http://www.opencubetech.com/userdoc/mxf_samples_files/op1a-mpeg2-wave_hd.mxf is playable but avid mxf files seem to have another format | 16:59 |
| _raven_ | mka vlc reads the file but only processes the first 31 kb (output from codec information) | 16:59 |
| teage | iceroot- my Memory usage is not even but maybe a quarter used and i see no big process going on. | 16:59 |
| bodhi20161 | guys what is the equivalent of "$ tar -xzvf linux-2.6.17.8.tar.gz " for the file linux-2.6.17.bz2 | 16:59 |
| jcc1 | have you looked at http://ingex.sourceforge.net/libMXF/ | 17:00 |
| teage | I wonder if it is something to do with configuration? | 17:00 |
| _raven_ | jcc1, not yet but it looks good as hint | 17:00 |
| soreau | bodhi20161: You need to use bzip to decompress it first | 17:00 |
| mka | _raven_, are you having all the usual (illegal) codecs installed? | 17:01 |
| erUSUL | bodhi20161: use j instead of z | 17:01 |
| soreau | bodhi20161: bzip2 -d linux-2.6.17.bz2 | 17:01 |
| iceroot | bodhi20161: bunzip is also working | 17:01 |
| bodhi20161 | thanks iceroot | 17:01 |
| erUSUL | bodhi20161: but tar xvf file.tar.whatever autodetects the compression used and choose the apropiate decompresor | 17:02 |
| anakin | hello | 17:02 |
| Xfact | is there any system tools available to check disk errors and problems... | 17:02 |
| Xfact | ? | 17:02 |
| jcc1 | fsck | 17:02 |
| clrg | Xfact: fsck | 17:02 |
| _raven_ | mka yes | 17:02 |
| clrg | !fsck | Xfact | 17:02 |
| ubottu | Xfact: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 17:02 |
| erUSUL | bodhi20161: so « tar xvf file.tar.gz » and « tar xvf file.tar.bz2 » will work | 17:02 |
| VCoolio | can someone tell me how to pipe arguments into a zenity --list window? | 17:03 |
| erUSUL | VCoolio: probably you need to pass it as a variable | 17:04 |
| Xfact | ohh...it checks my system automatically when error,then I don't need anything....thanks :) | 17:04 |
| iceroot | Xfact: not checking automaticly if a error exist, just checks if you dont shutdown correctly | 17:04 |
| VCoolio | erUSUL: do you have an example? I've googled a bit but I can't get it to work | 17:04 |
| usr13 | Xfact: Yes, linux is like a brick house - low maintenance. | 17:05 |
| clrg | iceroot: ext3 FS are checked periodically, every XY mounts or every 180 days, I think. You can change that my tune2fs | 17:05 |
| dpiwowarski | hi guys | 17:05 |
| iceroot | clrg: i know | 17:05 |
| usr13 | !hi | dpiwowarski | 17:05 |
| ubottu | dpiwowarski: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 17:05 |

| kaput1 | hi, i am looking for help with the mail command in terminal | 17:06 |
| usr13 | kaput1: what do you need? | 17:06 |
| iceroot | kaput1: and what do you want to know? looked at the manpage? | 17:06 |
| usr13 | kaput1: man mail | 17:06 |
| mka | _raven_, I have no knowledge of such a format and if vlc and mplayer cannot play it with all codecs installed then, i am clueless. maybe google may help | 17:06 |
| dpiwowarski | I have a problem with gparted. It doesn`t recognize any partition, fdisk shows partions properly. | 17:06 |
| clrg | dpiwowarski: Use fdisk then =) | 17:07 |
| B9 | ello :-D i am on a Netbook and my arrows keypad directional arrows have stopped working... is there a simple way to recode them? | 17:07 |
| Xfact | that means no system file checker, catch cleaner, registry cleaner exist for linux? (unlike windows...) | 17:07 |
| VCoolio | jcc1: tried that, but I don't get different options in zenity --list | 17:07 |
| clrg | dpiwowarski: Did you run gparted as root? | 17:07 |
| VCoolio | jcc1: the cat output is combined to one option I can select | 17:07 |
| iceroot | Xfact: there is no registry | 17:07 |
| dpiwowarski | clrg: i want to install ubuntu 9.10, and default installer uses gparted | 17:07 |
| jcc1 | clrg, you must be a doctor :-) Doc, it hurts when I do this. "Then don't do it. | 17:07 |
| erUSUL | VCoolio: the zenity man page has an example | 17:08 |
| clrg | B9: Did you try resetting the keyboard layout to your desired layout? | 17:08 |
| kaput1 | usr13 not really sure, i get the mail sent to my local user. i seem to need a mta, tried exim | 17:08 |

| kaput1 | thx i tried those tw0 exim and postfix installed but not right apparently. my goal : use mail with cron | 17:21 |
| jcc1 | exim and postfix are servers not "mailers" | 17:22 |
| kaput1 | any up to date tutorials? last i found dated a bit | 17:22 |
| TheNational22 | after I edit the ~/.bashrc file, what is the command I run so the alias I added will work? thank you fo ryour help | 17:23 |
| kaput1 | dont need server ( unless onlyway to go) just be able to mail with crontab | 17:23 |
| oCean_ | TheNational22: "source ~/.bashrc" or even ". .~/.bashrc" | 17:23 |
| jcc1 | are you trying to send an email from the client? then use a mail USER agent and set it up to contact your mail server | 17:23 |
| marcin_ | that is I am doing the bad impression | 17:23 |
| jcc1 | Postfix and Exim are servers, not USER agents | 17:24 |

| marcin_ | goods I am falling I thought that here I would learn something but widzie I am wrong | 17:26 |
| jcc1 | "mail" is a user agent, you just need to set it up properly | 17:27 |

| Hipster | and when I get to the disk management section of the installer, it shows the drive my win7 partition is on as compeltely unallocated | 17:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Hipster: win7 makes what amounts to a 'boot' partition by default for it to use. | 17:30 |
| m666 | how can i remove excess lines in grub from privuous ubuntus? | 17:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Hipster: no idea on that quirk. Good luck. :) | 17:30 |
| Hipster | Dr_Willis: Heh, thanks | 17:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Hipster: windows has a feature to resize its own partitions. I would use windows to reeize. and leave part of the HD unallocated. | 17:31 |
| White_Pelican | is there any way to customize the toolbar in Nautilus? | 17:31 |
| m666 | how can i be sure that ive uninstalled wine completely? | 17:32 |
| Dr_Willis | m666: apt-get purge wine - removes the binary and system configs. | 17:32 |
| Dr_Willis | m666: it does NOT remove the users personal wine configs/files | 17:32 |
| clrg | m666: "sudo apt-get remove --purge wine; sudo apt-get autoclean" | 17:33 |
| burzki | Hipster, if you want to dual boot windows and ubuntu, get windows installed on the disc first and then ubuntu from there. should be no problem. going the other way asks trouble .. | 17:33 |
| alpha | se | 17:34 |
| Hipster | burzki: Alrighty, thanks | 17:34 |
| itsnotstalking | what do i install to control my virtual desktops in open box? i need a way to switch between then | 17:34 |
| clrg | burzki, Hipster: Since windows overrides GRUB. You won't be able to boot Ubuntu if you install windows afterwards. | 17:34 |
| jcc1 | kaput1, try this, http://www.december.com/unix/tutor/mail.html then send a test email while tailing /var/log/mail.log to see what happens with your mail | 17:35 |

| mazda01 | using partclone within parted magic and i am trying to clone my ubuntu install from a dieing 20gb hdd to a 40gb hdd. there's only 7gb used for root and 1.5gb used for home but when I use partclone to new partitions, it grows to 21gb and 13.9gb. Any thoughts? | 17:45 |
| mazda01 | i thought partclone was only suppose to clone used sectors, not like dd where that copies all sectors, empty or not. | 17:45 |
| lysek | i am trying to setup network in /etc/network/interfaces and when i done that i reload the networking init.d script but i got error: SIOCDELRT: No such process, can You help? | 17:45 |
| TheVenerableZ1 | does anyone know how to set up samba? | 17:45 |
| TheVenerableZ1 | these Sharing Options aren't working | 17:46 |
| mazda01 | lysek, are you using karmic? | 17:46 |
| Dr_Willis | mazda01: you may want to check out the 'fsarchiver' tool - its not in the repos but on some luive cds - it works on a filesystem level so it only copies the actual data. not empty stuff. and it verifies all files | 17:46 |
| CodeTBone | Hey on a 7.04 LiveCD trying to mount an external drive but when plugged it mounts as read-only, how can I change that? | 17:46 |
| erUSUL | lysek: post the interfaces file maybe there is asyntax error ? | 17:46 |
| Dr_Willis | TheVenerableZ1: i tend to 'sudo apt-get install samba' the 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' then edit /etc/samba/smb.conf as needed - changeing the workgroup to what i want. and perhaps enabling the home shares. | 17:47 |
| mazda01 | Dr_Willis, that's what partclone claims. i ahve cloned the drive now like 5 times and each time the new partitions hve way more used then before? i don't get it. why would cloning 7ghb to a new drive result in 21gb???? | 17:47 |
| TheVenerableZ1 | Dr_Willis: I believe I did that, but when I try to connect from another machine on the network, it always says "access denied" | 17:47 |

| erUSUL | mazda01: try with normal ones. run it via gparted for example | 17:48 |

| CodeTBone | Hey how can I mount a read-only filesystem to read-write? | 17:56 |
| ecolitan | better to have the answer for everyone I would think DubAndy | 17:56 |
| Xfact | I am running latest version virtual box and it's not mounting my pointer in windows 2000! What to do? | 17:56 |
| Seveas | CodeTBone, sudo mount -o remount,rw /path/to/mountpoint | 17:57 |
| dnivra | ecolitan: grub2 is kind of different. check the grub2 documentation; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2. | 17:57 |
| DubAndy | ecolitan: It's Grub2 in 9.10 and upgradable from 9.04. I was referred to this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2. | 17:57 |

| White_Pelican | is there any way to customize the toolbar in Nautilus? | 17:58 |

| DubAndy | How do I know from the FDISK output which one of the partitions is the boot partition? http://paste.ubuntu.com/350464 | 17:59 |
| fumbles | DubAndy: it's ntfs and I have the latest ntfs-3g package as well as samba4 | 17:59 |
| fumbles | and samba is working correctly as I have Cups working for my shared printer | 18:00 |
| edbian | DubAndy, you can't really. A linux boot partition doesn't even need the boot flag. You can look at gparted, it's usually easier that way. | 18:00 |
| Hammer89 | is there a config file for UFW where I can update/change/delete rules manually? | 18:00 |
| edbian | DubAndy, also, if you are running that system right now, look at /etc/fstab | 18:00 |
| tas | fumbles: did you see the image? | 18:00 |
| CodeTBone | Still read-only | 18:00 |
| CodeTBone | It says the whole drive is read-only | 18:01 |
| DubAndy | edbian: I am on a live cd. I can mount the filesystem and check the fstab file | 18:01 |

| anom01y | so I downgraded to intrepid | 18:20 |
| guntbert | tas: uninstall yum, use the ubuntu tools | 18:20 |
| edbian | invaderjonny42, If you only have 1 partition I do not understand in any way how "the cdrom folder" and the /home have different sizes | 18:20 |
| anom01y | now, how can I tell if the laptop is working properly w/ correct drivers ect | 18:20 |
| edbian | invaderjonny42, is the cdrom folder /media/cdrom ? is something mounted in it? | 18:21 |
| White_Pelican | the main one in nautilus, where it currently has forward, back, up etc | 18:21 |
| solar_ant__ | hi all | 18:21 |
| g_khatwani123 | Sucrot:another query is that please help m to know the command to netbeans 5.5 with sun java application server in terminal using internet | 18:21 |

| edbian | invaderjonny42, what is the "cdrom folder" then? | 18:22 |
| Besogon | edbian, Let he make sudo fstab -l. I'm trying to help him like you. | 18:22 |
| invaderjonny42 | my cdrom folder is in my / directory | 18:22 |
| guntbert | White_Pelican: in my experience nautilus itself is not *very* configurable :-) | 18:22 |
| solar_ant__ | edbian: its an inbuild via card | 18:22 |
| invaderjonny42 | its the folder used to boot ubuntu from my external hard drive | 18:22 |
| solar_ant__ | edbian: s3 Unichrome pro | 18:22 |
| White_Pelican | I am finding that out the hard way. perhaps I need to file an rfe | 18:22 |
| Sucrot | g_khatwani123: you want to install netbeans from the internet? | 18:22 |
| g_khatwani123 | yes | 18:22 |
| ctmjr | !flash > azrael_ | 18:22 |
| edbian | solar_ant__, That's why, its probably just weak and the ubuntu driver for it isn't manufactured by the company that built it so it isn't optimal. What kinda processor? | 18:22 |
| ubottu | azrael_, please see my private message | 18:22 |
| Ingsoc | invaderjonny42: look in /media/ | 18:22 |
| invaderjonny42 | all i see is my computers broken hard drive folder | 18:23 |
| solar_ant__ | edbian its an athlon process 1.8 mhz | 18:23 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, isn't /cdrom a link to /media/cdrom ? | 18:23 |
| invaderjonny42 | no | 18:23 |
| g_khatwani123 | sucrot:netbeans 5.5 with sun java application server | 18:23 |
| anom01y | Hi, the video card in my laptop with Ubuntu on it is ATI Radeon mobility 7000 IGP | 18:23 |
| edbian | solar_ant__, I think it's the pathetically bad driver that we have to use for the unichrome pro chip :( sorry! | 18:23 |
| invaderjonny42 | no such folder her but i'll try maybe its hidden or something | 18:23 |
| Sucrot | g_khatwani123: I don't use that app | 18:23 |
| anom01y | how do I get the drivers to work for it ? | 18:23 |
| invaderjonny42 | nope no luck\ | 18:23 |
| solar_ant__ | edbian: would the generic driver do better? Or is there some configurations? | 18:23 |
| Sucrot | g_khatwani123: but you can search with "sudo apt-cache search netbeans" | 18:24 |
| edbian | mka, how the hell is /cdrom reporting that it has 390gb free and /home says it only has 1 if they're on the same partition? | 18:24 |
| Sucrot | g_khatwani123: maybe you know which of them is it | 18:24 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, oh to me it's like in you, im suprised, im on livecd | 18:24 |
| White_Pelican | where do I file an RFE for any applications in gnome? | 18:24 |

| anom01y | Hi, ok so because of my video card (ati radeon mobility 7000 igp) I was forced to downgrade to ubuntu 8.10 from 9.10 | 18:28 |
| === LOBOLINUX is now known as LICANTROPO | ||
| Dr_Willis | Guest96976: check the wine app database for teh specific game also - there may be some suggestions as to what to tweak with it. | 18:28 |
| anom01y | how do I get the binary drivers for this video card ? | 18:28 |
| edbian | invaderjonny42, the /home/you folder is on the flash drive | 18:28 |
| GaIna | trism: I did, first thing as I logged on here. Question was how to make the protocol for steam work with firefox, so the links in firefox for steam, open the program itself | 18:28 |
| Guest96976 | Dr_Willis: i couldn't find anyone else who had the same problem | 18:28 |
| invaderjonny42 | yes | 18:28 |
| Dr_Willis | !pulse | 18:29 |
| ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 18:29 |
| invaderjonny42 | it says i have 1 gb remaining when i should have 390 gb remaining | 18:29 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, you have no separate /home partition | 18:29 |
| edbian | invaderjonny42, So you want to run from the flash drive but use the space on the HDD as your /home folder? | 18:29 |
| Drakeson | is it possible to "minimize evolution to tray" (keep it running without a window) ? | 18:29 |
| anom01y | !binary | 18:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest96976: ive never had to disable pusle for my wine games. so not sure of the proper way to do it. You could try running the game in wine. with a differnt window manager. one thats not using pulse i guess. | 18:29 |
| invaderjonny42 | YES! | 18:29 |
| Besogon | invaderjonny42, Can you reinstall ubuntu? It will be more easy for you. I know how to resolve your problem but it's too long to explain | 18:29 |

| mka | invaderjonny42, edbian, gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 18:33 |
| edbian | invaderjonny42, The first command is a question: what is the /dev name of your linux partition. /dev/sda2 or soemthing | 18:33 |

| edbian | invaderjonny42, Look at the output of "sudo fdisk -l" what is the /dev/sdX name of the linux partition? | 18:43 |
| invaderjonny42 | its on my external hard drive booted on my hp dv7t quad core and it is ubuntu 9.10 | 18:43 |
| ffission6 | my situation is i need to go over to his place on his windows machine and prototype a web page for him, to do so i need a linux environment to be productive, can i do this with ubuntu live cd | 18:44 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, you do not have the a separate /home partition so you are limited to the 639MB available space | 18:44 |
| Blue1 | ffission6: but just keep in mind that you aren't going to be editting any files - but this will see how ubuntu runs on another's machine without committing to it | 18:44 |
| ffission6 | oh | 18:44 |
| ffission6 | well i need to write | 18:44 |
| ffission6 | whats my options for getting into ubuntu from windwos | 18:44 |
| Blue1 | wubi | 18:44 |
| edbian | ffission6, You can run ubuntu using the live CD but you can't save any files (except if you mount is HDD or have a flash drive or something) do you understand? Cause the OS is running from the CD and CDs or read only (unless you burn to them..) | 18:44 |
| ffission6 | can i just download and run wubi, i dont need to burn | 18:45 |
| invaderjonny42 | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m10ab4d80 | 18:45 |
| alabd | which package should be installed to have not this error with totem ?The playback of this movie requires a text/html decoder plugin which is not installed. | 18:45 |
| edbian | ffission6, The live CD would be easier cause you don't need to install anything on his machine | 18:45 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, is it necessary to have a separate partition? | 18:45 |
| ffission6 | i was just told i can not develop with live cd | 18:45 |
| dnivra | baldaris, in case you've not found it yet https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox would be of help. | 18:45 |
| jpds | alabd: You're playing an HTML file? | 18:45 |
| invaderjonny42 | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m10ab4d80 | 18:45 |
| ffission6 | i need to be able to basically use linux tools i am familiar with to scrape a few webpages | 18:45 |
| invaderjonny42 | ^ there is my console | 18:45 |
| ffission6 | then give him back his windows machine | 18:46 |
| Maletor | Why do the graphics look so bad on my computer. I have a $140 graphics card NVIDIA 9800GTX+ | 18:46 |
| edbian | invaderjonny42, There is no linux partition according to that fdisk output... | 18:46 |
| baldaris | dnivra, i am just going through it.. | 18:46 |
| invaderjonny42 | ?huh? | 18:46 |
| guntbert | White_Pelican: bugzilla.gnome.org | 18:46 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, not it's not necessary but if /home is not separate you can use up to whatever is avalable for / | 18:46 |

| mka | invaderjonny42, yes edbian is right, there is no linux partition here, did you install ubuntu via Wubi? | 18:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Xfact: do what you want. Have fun. | 18:47 |
| invaderjonny42 | no | 18:47 |
| Maletor | ctmjr: I have the newest drivers from the website install | 18:47 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, are you on livecd? | 18:47 |
| edbian | ffission6, You can run the entire ubuntu OS from the CD (instead of from a HDD like you would normally run an OS). You can use all the tools and everything, you can even install packages. You cannot however save files to a CD (obviously) so use the live CD and just save the files to a jump drive or something. Understand? | 18:47 |
| baldaris | dnivra, thanks bro.. | 18:47 |
| invaderjonny42 | i used some ubuntu liveusb cinstaller tool (actually what it called) | 18:47 |
| edbian | mka, He's running from a usb drive | 18:48 |

| ffission6 | not c, i mean hardisk | 18:48 |

| edbian | ffission6, You could, but you would have to mount his harddrive (not hard at all really) just takes a little linux know-how | 18:49 |

| mattaius | Out of curiousity, what's the status on having grub2 use the graphical boot options? | 18:52 |
| ctmjr | Maletor: have you played around with nvidia-settings and changed the resolution and refresh rate there is also some settings for other things like vsync and such | 18:52 |
| mozart373 | FloodBot4, sorry | 18:52 |
| Dr_Willis | snake: the xrandr command line tools can do it | 18:52 |
| darthanubis | gfather, you have to get to console shutdown gdm and run nvidia-xconfig | 18:52 |
| protoplay | mozart373, i dont know much about sound, perhaps someone else can help | 18:52 |
| dnivra | mozart373, floodbot is a bot BTW | 18:52 |
| invaderjonny42 | one having seagate freeagent 900 gb | 18:52 |
| gfather | darthanubis how can i do that ? | 18:52 |
| snake | thanks doctor ;) | 18:52 |
| invaderjonny42 | then i downloaded and installed ubuntu on it | 18:52 |

| isteme | what tool do i use to check a ntfs formatted usb stick for hardware errors on ubuntu? (not filesystem errors, real hardware errors) | 18:54 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, there is no way you have a linux partition on your external HDDs | 18:54 |
| gfather | darthanubis but how im going to do that from boot ? | 18:55 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, what you mean? | 18:55 |
| === agni109 is now known as agni109`away | ||
| invaderjonny42 | mka, all my partitions are fat32 could that have anything to do with it/. | 18:55 |
| invaderjonny42 | ? | 18:55 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, might have installed linux via wubi because linux cannot be installed to fat32 or ntfs filesystem natively | 18:55 |
| darthanubis | gfather, I normally don't do walk through but you will need to take notes | 18:55 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, really the site said otherwise... but okay... | 18:56 |
| darthanubis | gfather, you have to hit ctrl-alt-f1 to get to console | 18:56 |
| gfather | thats on when grub load ? | 18:56 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, i used some installer tool that WAS'T Wubi or at least i don't think it was. | 18:56 |
| darthanubis | gfather, no, after full load | 18:56 |
| darthanubis | gfather, you with me? | 18:57 |

| ubottu | Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 18:57 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, yes, the fact that your partitions are all fat32 and ntfs suggests that | 18:57 |
| gfather | ok , so my lc can load terminal , right ? | 18:57 |
| gfather | lc= lcd | 18:57 |
| Gnewt | I'd like to install Karmic server from USB, but it seems to have some weird issues (won't recognize the "CD-ROM", release codename not found, etc)... | 18:57 |
| darthanubis | gfather, yes | 18:57 |
| Gnewt | Help? | 18:57 |
| Gnewt | How do I install Karmic server from USB? | 18:57 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, should i repartition them and if so to what? | 18:57 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, yes it's probably that "installer tool" that was wubi | 18:57 |
| darthanubis | gfather, the key sequence I gave you will get you to a console | 18:57 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, and why would that matter | 18:57 |
| Otacon22 | Hi all, i was working on the Wiimote and now when i press a key on the keyboard the mouse doesn't move!!! | 18:57 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, furthermore how should i install it then? | 18:58 |
| darthanubis | gfather, to stop gdm type sudo stop gdm or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 18:58 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, it matters because you do not have a /home partition that you can quickly mount now to your liveusb session | 18:58 |
| ipatrol | Is there any way to get a package onto an offline computer? | 18:58 |
| darthanubis | gfather, then sudo nvidia-xconfig | 18:58 |
| dnivra | Gnewt, I don't know how to help you but hope this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 18:58 |
| mac9416 | ipatrol, using packages.ubuntu.com or Keryx. | 18:58 |
| darthanubis | gfather, that should do it, as gdm should restart itself | 18:58 |
| invaderjonny42 | ok should i repartition my external hardrive an make a partition called /home? | 18:59 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, and what format should it be/ | 18:59 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, ? | 18:59 |
| Gnewt | thanks dnivra, but I followed that guide already. Installer has weird bugs that don't let it work. | 18:59 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, linux partitions are ext2, ext3, ext4 or reiserfs | 18:59 |
| ipatrol | mac9416: Tg | 18:59 |
| ipatrol | hx | 18:59 |
| mac9416 | ipatrol, no prob. Let me know if you have any trouble with either. | 19:00 |

| anom01y | anyone here know anything about Foss drivers ? | 19:01 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, so I need to repartition it as ps3, linux, /home, seagate | 19:01 |

| invaderjonny42 | mka, after that how do i reinstall ubuntu? | 19:01 |
| ipatrol | darthanubis: Is there a GUI way | 19:01 |
| darthanubis | ipatrol, I'm sure there is. used to be a network config. app in the system menu, it may still be in the repos | 19:02 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, i do have the steps correct, yes? | 19:02 |
| guntbert | anom01y: what is your problem? | 19:02 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, burn the iso to a disk and shutdown and boot from a cd and install | 19:02 |
| anom01y | guntbert, , I just downgraded beacuse I was told that 8.10 would support my video card (ati radeon mobility 7000 igp) | 19:02 |
| invaderjonny42 | can i install it to an external hard drive? | 19:02 |
| anom01y | (from 9.10) | 19:02 |
| invaderjonny42 | cause then i'll just mount it to save space | 19:03 |
| Otacon22 | I was working on the Wiimote and now when i press a key on the keyboard the mouse doesn't move!!! What happened? | 19:03 |
| anom01y | but in hardware manager it doesnt give me the option to install any drivers | 19:03 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, you do NOT need to have /home a separate partition, but it is advantageous to do so | 19:03 |
| anom01y | the open source drivers that come by default work, but video is choppy (especially flash), and scrolling through web pages is really choppy also | 19:03 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, i'm down with that but how do i do that? | 19:03 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, also how do i make linux partitions on windows (software) | 19:04 |
| guntbert | anom01y: the option in hardware drivers exists only if your card is supported by fglrx..., otherwise the free drivers are used | 19:04 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, aka what do i need to make linux parttions | 19:04 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, use gparted to resize the partitions | 19:05 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, can i just mount it and copy it to another usb say an ipod? | 19:05 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, cause i don't have any cds | 19:05 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, or dvds | 19:05 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, you can use liveusb to install as well, i guess | 19:06 |
| rrc7cz | how can I cd into a folder owned by an application user? for example, /var/lib/couchdb/0.10.0 is owned by the couchdb user and I need to get in there to copy a db file | 19:06 |
| dreamhat_ | is Ubuntu 100% opensource? | 19:06 |
| invaderjonny42 | ok so to do that i mount it and just run the install but choose the ipod as the place to install it? | 19:07 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, you have 320GB and 1.5TB drives are they which one of them is internal? | 19:07 |
| guntbert | rrc7cz: sudo cp /var/lib/.... <target> | 19:07 |
| invaderjonny42 | 320gb (which is broken) | 19:07 |
| grawity | dreamhat_: I think it's more like 99% | 19:07 |
| ionut | hi all . does anyone knows how can i divide C class network ( 192.168.0.x ) into two networks using a netmask ? | 19:07 |
| mka | invaderjonny42, why are you saying it is broken? | 19:07 |
| guntbert | ionut: ask in ##networking please | 19:07 |
| dnivra | dreamhat_, I don't think so. and I don't think you should pursue it here. head to #ubuntu-offtopic. this is a support channel for ubuntu. | 19:07 |
| rrc7cz | guntbert: but I don't know the files it contains? So I'll just copy all of them to a temp dir and see | 19:07 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, cause i burned it out | 19:08 |
| grawity | ionut: 192.168.0.0/25 and 192.168.0.128/25 | 19:08 |

| mka | invaderjonny42, i get you now, windows is broken, NOT the drive itself | 19:09 |
| ionut | grawity: i am a beginner. i would apreciate if you want to help me explaining | 19:09 |
| invaderjonny42 | mka, but it is broken cause even ubuntu says there are MANY bad sectors | 19:09 |

| guntbert | !runlevel | arbir | 19:31 |
| ubottu | arbir: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 19:31 |
| trism | arbir: the current way to disable upstart scripts seems to be to rename them to something that doesn't end in .conf, so moving them to /etc/init/ttyX.conf-disabled should work | 19:31 |

| blakkheim | !mini | Guest44085 | 20:04 |
| jcc1 | thanks | 20:04 |
| ubottu | Guest44085: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD).

| jcc1 | gdm stop only stops the login window, not X - killall X | 20:10 |

| burzki | benomatic, not really my area, but i had problems on a different install with alsa conflicting jack .. | 20:13 |
| ChogyDan | Evilice: why arent you using the package? | 20:14 |
| burzki | benomatic, maybe something to do w/ jack setup in the new install .. about all i can offer on this | 20:14 |
| ADmad | what would be the proper mount options for an extra ext4 drive? using dolphin by default kubuntu mount like this: /dev/sda7 on /media/disk type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal) but with that i can't write to it | 20:14 |
| theoros | i'm trying to install kubuntu via wubi on vista home premium and for some reason, even after running chkdsk /r i get "can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found" and "could not find the ISO /ubuntu/install/installation.iso" when booting up. wubi and the kubuntu 9.10 iso are on the desktop and had no problems running | 20:15 |
| guest000 | ctmjr, failed to load nvidia_drv.so | 20:15 |
| Evilice | whenever i use the package i get a modprobe error saying ndiswrapper module not found. | 20:15 |
| anon_ | how would one find out the version of one of their programs | 20:15 |
| theoros | anon_: program_name -v perhaps | 20:15 |
| Blue1 | theoros: /dev/sr0 is the cdrom drive | 20:15 |
| theoros | anon_: please don't pm me | 20:15 |
| ChogyDan | Evilice: did you use ndis-gtk or whatever? | 20:15 |
| theoros | Blue1: yeah? | 20:15 |
| Evilice | yes i tried that too | 20:15 |
| Blue1 | theoros: yup - | 20:16 |
| theoros | Blue1: thanks for that very informative piece of help. | 20:16 |
| theoros | Blue1: if you have any actual contribution to make that helps me, feel free | 20:16 |
| Evilice | i have been able to get it working in gentoo and fedora. but ubuntu is gving me problems. its for a bcm43x card and a wusb600n | 20:16 |
| Blue1 | theoros: stumped me the first time around | 20:16 |
| nmvictor | which man page contains the linux system error exit status and their meaning | 20:16 |
| jcc1 | theoros, you need to burn the iso to a cd and then put it in the cdrom drive | 20:16 |
| Blue1 | jcc1: well said | 20:17 |
| theoros | jcc1: that seems to defeat the actual point of wubi. | 20:17 |
| jcc1 | no it doesn't, it wants to load the system off the cdrom, just like a standard install | 20:17 |
| ChogyDan | Evilice: yeah I dunno. I always installed ndiswrapper, installed the driver, then modprobed to get it working, then something like added it to a modprob file | 20:17 |
| Datawire | I'm using v8.10, whenever I put a CD-ROM in, it automatically mounts it but doesn't give me ownership, so I need to unmount it and remount it, giving my user ownership, any way I can make it automatically give me ownership during first mount? | 20:18 |
| jcc1 | but don't tell me, I diidn't design the installation procedure :-) | 20:18 |
| theoros | jcc1: then why on earth would wubi download the ISO if it doesn't find it in the same directory that its in, if it wants me to put it on a CD? | 20:18 |
| jcc1 | got me :-) | 20:18 |
| theoros | http://wubi-installer.org/ | 20:18 |
| Evilice | ya useally ndiswrapper -m then a depmod -a gets it in there but for some reason its not =\ | 20:18 |
| theoros | "No need to burn a CD" | 20:18 |
| jcc1 | like I said, not my design | 20:18 |

| theoros | jcc1: if you don't actually know about wubi why are you telling me supposed solutions? | 20:18 |
| ChogyDan | Evilice: oh, and sudo ndiswrapper -m too | 20:19 |
| jcc1 | if the system said it could not find it on the cdrom drive then that is waht it meant, it could not find it there | 20:19 |
| Evilice | yup =\ | 20:19 |
| floating | can I extend a ext4 partition with / my root from the begin of it | 20:20 |
| jcc1 | so I would put it there and see what happens | 20:20 |
| theoros | jcc1: which is superb, except part of the point of wubi is that i don't have to burn anything to a CD to get a working ubuntu installation | 20:20 |
| Evilice | is there a way of fixing the FATAL : MODULE ndiswrapper not found when using the package install? | 20:20 |
| ctmjr | guest000: am pretty sure you have the kernel headers but you can check apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` or ls /lib/modules/`uname -r` and you should have a build dir and such | 20:20 |

| Tinned_Tuna | Heya, I'm having some wireless difficulties with an Intel 4965 card. Once logged in, the card will connect to my wireless network. But then very shortly after disconnects and cannot reconnect | 20:27 |
| floating | will the partition tables or whatever go messed up if i boot to windows and expand my ext4 partition with system in it.. from the begin of it | 20:27 |
| Liam | I have an Atheros AR242x wireless card. I have installed the proprietary "madwifi" driver under System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers - but the wireless card is inable to pick up any network connections (I am currently plugged in VIA wire) - 'iwconfig' shows my wireless device but again - no networks are shown. Is there a solution to this? | 20:27 |
| Tinned_Tuna | I've tried modprobe-ing to unload and reload the module to no avail. | 20:27 |
| ChogyDan | floating: they shouldn't get messed up, but you need to use a good partitioning program | 20:28 |

| blakkheim | anon_: just my opinion, though: the older kismet is a bit better | 20:50 |
| ctmjr | guest000: cool did it have the hard drive? | 20:51 |

| guntbert | !root | nullkuhl | 21:02 |
| ubottu | nullkuhl: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 21:02 |
| Join-D | guntbert ok, but on a other machine the cd /home/myname && ./backup.sh works | 21:02 |
| blakkheim | nullkuhl: you need to run "sudo passwd root" to set a root password, although most ubuntu people tell you not to | 21:02 |
| guntbert | clrg: don't recommedn that please, use sudo -i instead | 21:02 |
| VCoolio | Join-D: use /bin/bash /home/you/backup.sh | 21:02 |

| LinuxAdmin | I don't like red hat | 21:44 |

| micahf | hey, so I dd'd the latest ubuntu iso onto a 4gb sandisk usb flash drive | 21:45 |
| micahf | and it won't boot! | 21:45 |
| micahf | the computer just skips it and goes straight to windows | 21:46 |
| micahf | could it be that I used the wrong block size? | 21:46 |
| RS-232 | Basically what happens to me is that even I call to node_save($node) a hundred times into hook_nodeapu with $op=update&insert...it only saves ONCE the node, any clue? | 21:46 |
| nemo | duffydack: he's definitely not using fglrx - and the card is 5 years old so I'm betting ATI dropped it | 21:46 |
| anon_ | anyone know what the newest version of kismet compiles with? | 21:46 |
| micahf | I used a block size of 2048 | 21:46 |
| nemo | duffydack: that's probably why jockey didn't work | 21:46 |
| micahf | i'm trying again with 1024 | 21:46 |
| micahf | I just don't see how that would be the issue | 21:46 |
| solifugus | How do you take a screenshot in gnome? | 21:46 |
| micahf | it's frustrating | 21:46 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: you dont 'dd' a iso to a flash drive. | 21:47 |
| asathoor | solifugus > just press prnt scrn | 21:47 |
| micahf | Dr_Willis: why not? | 21:47 |
| guntbert | LinuxAdmin: see https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/index.html | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: you use unetbootin or a similer tool.. | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: err.. because it wont work.. :) | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: thats why | 21:47 |
| micahf | ugh :( | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: where did you get the idea that it would work? :) | 21:47 |
| micahf | i'm on mac os x though | 21:47 |
| micahf | i thought it was supposed to work on mac os x | 21:47 |

| Dr_Willis | micahf: check pendrivelinux.com for tutorials. they may have tools | 21:48 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: dding an iso file to a flash drive does not work.. dding the old UNR.img file WOULD work. since its a img. not a iso | 21:48 |
| Smithy | Does any know where i put this "/msg nickserv register <your-password> <your-email>" so i can register. | 21:48 |
| azrael_ | yo | 21:48 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: or boot a ubuntu live cd somewhere and use the usb-disk-creator tool. | 21:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Smithy: right where you type everything else. | 21:49 |
| azrael_ | anyone know any good game for ubuntu | 21:49 |
| oCean_ | Smithy: use the inputbox of your irc client, just like talking to this channel | 21:49 |
| anon_ | ok amateur question here, i need someone to explain compiling to me | 21:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Smithy: you may want to use a 'server' tab to talk to the bots | 21:49 |
| _rabe_ | Dr_Willis, do you know something that is easier? for example "dosbox dostool.exe commandstoexe"? | 21:49 |
| Dr_Willis | _rabe_: Ive no idea what you are trying to do . | 21:49 |

| Hydrosis | Hi all, I just installed bible-kjv and opened it in the terminal using "bible". Everything works fine, but I can;t figure out how to exit bible-kjv without closing the terminal. Using "exit" does not work and "help" does not work. | 21:50 |

| jarray52 | What settings does the Linux kernel get from the BIOS, and what settings does the kernel configure itself? I'm trying to troubleshoot a hardware conflict that causes Linux to hard freeze. The NIC card controlling eth0 conflicts with usb-storage devices. If the NIC card is disabled in the BIOS, usb-storage devices work. If the NIC card is not disabled, eth0 works until a USB storage device is inserted. | 21:50 |
| Dr_Willis | _rabe_: dos box emulates 'dos' it has nothing to emulate anything under xp/windows.. its pure dos... | 21:50 |
| micahf | Dr_Willis: thanks for the info, seems like my attempt to dd might be the problem | 21:51 |
| ActionParsnip | jarray52: try some bootoptions, or upgrading BIOS | 21:51 |
| azrael_ | where would i find them? | 21:51 |
| ActionParsnip | azrael_: online | 21:51 |
| _rabe_ | Dr_Willis, yes but dosbox does not run the exes i need to run | 21:51 |
| azrael_ | DUH | 21:51 |
| micahf | Dr_Willis: the hard part for me to understand is that I followed a tutorial which said this should work under os x (presumably because the OS X dd can do that?) | 21:51 |
| Dr_Willis | _rabe_: You may need to use an actual windows setup, or wine then. | 21:51 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: i dont see how dd can do that at all. I would say the guide is wrong. | 21:52 |
| jason | I tri booted my pc - XP, Kubuntu, OpenSUSE (in that order). After suse got done installing, Kubuntu wont show up in the gru bmenu. How can I get it back? | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: all dd does is a direct data dump from one location to another. | 21:52 |
| _rabe_ | Dr_Willis, that would be plan b but i thought there would be something easy | 21:52 |
| guntbert | micahf: maybe the guide is simply outdated? | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: IF it was 'dding' a .img of the UNR yes.. it would work.. bit for an ISO - No... it wont | 21:52 |
| pollywog | is there a way to cause network-manager to leave my DNS server settings alone? | 21:53 |
| jarray52 | ActionParsnip: I'm using the latest BIOS version. I tried irqpoll and a couple of others. | 21:53 |

| Hydrosis | I installed "bible-kjv" and opened it in the terminal using the command "bible". Everything works fine, but I can't figure out how to exit bible-kjv without closing the terminal window. I do not want to do that. Using "exit" does not work. Anyone know how to exit this app without closing the terminal window? | 21:53 |

| klown | can someone tell me how to remove the panel at the top of the desktop please. | 21:53 |
| asathoor | marxelus > perhaps | 21:53 |
| ActionParsnip | pollywog: you can put the settings you want into network manager, it will then add the settings you want | 21:53 |
| jorik | micahf: the guide you pasted does not what you suggest it does | 21:53 |
| zer0_mood | marxelus, what seems to be the problem ? | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Hydrosis: programname & then 'exit' normally works.. | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | klown: right click it -> delete panel | 21:54 |
| asathoor | marxelus > what is your problem? | 21:54 |
| Hydrosis | klown: right clock the panel and chose remove panel | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Hydrosis: or 'nohup programname &' then 'exit' | 21:54 |
| klown | i removed everything but sound, network, and the logoff wont seem to leave. | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Hydrosis: or did i missunderstand the question? | 21:54 |
| azrael_ | hey anyone know how to get flash working on liux | 21:54 |
| micahf | jorik: that's a different one, lemme find the original | 21:54 |
| azrael_ | linux | 21:54 |
| Hydrosis | Dr_Willis: im stuck INSIDE the app. I cant run regular commands like "exit" or "killall" etc. When I type, it navigate keywords within the app (bible) | 21:54 |
| marxelus | i've installed the driver with ndiswrapper and then a start the modul but when I type ifconfig wlan0 doesn't appear | 21:55 |
| micahf | jorik: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-create-an-ubuntu-installation-usb-on-the-mac/ | 21:55 |
| zer0_mood | azrael_, try to download it from the adobe site | 21:55 |
| micahf | is I think what it was | 21:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Hydrosis: the app dosent have a 'q' for quit or some other key combo? ive never used the app.. so no idea on that.. ctrl-c perhaps... | 21:55 |
| asathoor | azrael > sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras (write this in a terminal= | 21:55 |
| micahf | oh ug that's an img | 21:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Hydrosis: it may be time to read the apps docs. :) | 21:55 |
| micahf | i feel like maybe it was misinformation from a forum that I got :/ | 21:56 |
| Dr_Willis | micahf: yep.. .img you CAN dd to a flash drive... .iso you cant. | 21:56 |
| Hydrosis | Dr_Willis: I just typed "q" and it exited. You friggin rock man. Big thanks. Someone buy this guy a beer. | 21:56 |
| klown | ActionParsnip, Hydrosis any way to remove the networking icon, volume, and logoff/switch user icon? | 21:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Hydrosis: it may be time to read the apps docs. :) | 21:56 |
| ActionParsnip | klown: you can remove the panel by right clicking on an empty space on the bar and it can be removed | 21:56 |
| ActionParsnip | klown: you can add / remove any item on the bar you like | 21:56 |
| klown | ActionParsnip, it is not giving me the option to remove, only add panel, properties, new panel, help, and about panels | 21:57 |
| micahf | so now, why is it that the UNR iso is dd'able but not the other one? | 21:57 |
| towlie_ | i like ubuntu | 21:57 |

| ActionParsnip | klown: then click properties to see if it gives any clues | 21:59 |
| guntbert | dropedrobarri: why don't you use !lamp ? | 21:59 |
| ActionParsnip | !xampp | dropedrobarri | 21:59 |
| ubottu | dropedrobarri: We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. | 21:59 |
| klown | ActionParsnip, only close option it gives is transparency, but the icons still show. | 22:00 |

| ipatrol | stew: AFAIK Ubuntu has a kernel extension that locks certain file's mode | 22:15 |

| ActionParsnip | azrael_: uninstall ALL the packages listed there | 22:23 |
| noob | has anyone figured out how to mount a windows 7 network drive in ubuntu 9.10? I always get an error message "unable to mount location", even with samba installed. I can do this in 9.04 however. | 22:24 |
| itsnotstalking | ActionParsnip, do you use hardware or software to manage the 3 systems with the same display? | 22:24 |
| ActionParsnip | azrael_: use synaptic or whatever, if you have more than one flash plugin you will get zero flash | 22:24 |
| ActionParsnip | itsnotstalking: ssh | 22:24 |
| hyperstream | locash, ok so you have a remote ubuntu install, and your trying to access it yes? is ssh setup? is it behind a router/firewall? | 22:24 |
| ActionParsnip | itsnotstalking: or web interfaces | 22:24 |
| Sabre-night | ActionParsnip, how do i run mv ~/mozilla ~/.mozilla_old? I would assume thats a terminal bit | 22:24 |
| remco_ | elroacho: think its "port" not "-p" .. | 22:24 |
| Dr_Willis | bakarat: without the actual nvidia drivers installed - what happens with 2+ monitors - depends on how the chipset/card is setup in its firmware. | 22:24 |

| elroacho | ahh, ok | 22:26 |
| elroacho | thanks | 22:26 |

| azrael_ | k | 22:26 |

| locash | hyperstream, I have also set up a ssh tunnel to it, and tried accessing it as if I am not behing the same firewall | 22:27 |
| elroacho | think i got it to work | 22:27 |
| Sabre-night | guntbert, ah i must have missed that. | 22:27 |
| elroacho | just didn't set port | 22:27 |
| guntbert | Sabre-night: the dot "hides" the file | 22:27 |

| jcc1 | ahh check the settings on the remote, by default you can watch but not interact | 22:28 |
| iceroot | rahduke: doesnt matter if it is a windows-admin | 22:28 |
| iceroot | rahduke: its important that the user on samba-site can read/write | 22:28 |
| locash | jcc1, i have remote set to watch desktop, and control desktop | 22:28 |
| rahduke | iceroot: i'm not sure what you mean when you say logged in with samba as a user... how would u do that in windows | 22:28 |
| iceroot | rahduke: how you access the share on windows-site? | 22:29 |

| TraumaQueen | and the rest, for the other partition... is that a good idea? | 22:35 |
| iceroot | ActionParsnip: i am to slow for you :( | 22:35 |
| locash | jcc1, nothing obvious there | 22:35 |
| kzd | where can I find a clone of Windows Movie Maker? | 22:35 |
| azrael_ | yea they are all removed | 22:35 |
| TraumaQueen | it wont let me resize the partition | 22:35 |
| TraumaQueen | I cannot unmount | 22:35 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, 2Gb is good, I prefer 1GB but 2Gb is fine | 22:35 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, Are you trying to unmount your root partition? Because that's impossible | 22:35 |
| TraumaQueen | 1g will work? I need all the space I canm get. I'm a big downloader | 22:35 |
| Guest47330 | hi all does anyone help maybe with network shares? | 22:35 |
| ActionParsnip | kzd: avidemux or kino | 22:36 |
| TraumaQueen | Oh.... what if I am working from the live cd? | 22:36 |
| iceroot | Guest47330: read the link ubottu gave you | 22:36 |
| TraumaQueen | cause right now I'm not | 22:36 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, Then use 1Gb (hell 1mb will WORK) just not very well | 22:36 |
| Guest47330 | in places i try to connect to workgroup but keep getting error that it cannot mount to anything | 22:36 |
| jcc1 | locash: sorry, that leaves me out for hints, odd though that you aren't getting commo both ways, maybe tcpdump? | 22:36 |
| Sabre-night | ActionParsnip, guntbert i still get the tabs issue. | 22:36 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, If you boot the live CD can unmount (and therefore edit) all of the partitions on the hdd | 22:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Sabre-night: try the mozilla ppa | 22:36 |
| TraumaQueen | so I should do that? | 22:37 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, In a word: yes | 22:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Sabre-night: and rename the folder back, your settings are not at fault | 22:37 |
| TraumaQueen | Ok. sorry i'm a total noob.. | 22:37 |
| guntbert | Sabre-night: sorry - I only stepped in for the renaming | 22:37 |
| TraumaQueen | uninstalled vista on a whim, and out of frustration and it is the best thing I EVER did to my computer. | 22:37 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, no worries. How do you like Ubuntu? | 22:37 |
| TraumaQueen | I had Mint first, yesterday | 22:37 |
| gpryatel | I have a question about subversion best practice | 22:38 |
| TraumaQueen | but I'm really REALLY loving xubuntu. | 22:38 |
| TraumaQueen | its easier to navigate and customize | 22:38 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, Really? What is so much better about it then mint?? | 22:38 |
| locash | jcc1, thanks for the try | 22:38 |
| TraumaQueen | not sure | 22:38 |
| Guest47330 | Iceroot i looked at the link already but it didnt really help much | 22:38 |
| locash | jcc1, it seems my problem is stumping pretty much everyone | 22:38 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, ic ic. I'm glad you like linux! :) I love it | 22:38 |
| azrael_ | yo actionparsnip you there? | 22:38 |
| jcc1 | locash: if I think of something I'll shout | 22:38 |
| Guest47330 | the problem is i cannot see any windows shares | 22:39 |
| TraumaQueen | My neighbor is always telling me I need to get a mac... lol he's got NO idea | 22:39 |
| locash | jcc1, thanks | 22:39 |
| kostas_thess9 | hi mates . happy new year . A fast question . at ssh says that *** System restart required *** . From what is that problem? | 22:39 |
| asathoor | Well - I found the solution to the wubi problem ... | 22:39 |
| jcc1 | NP | 22:39 |
| duffydack | Anyone with a radeonHD using fglrx here/ | 22:39 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, mac is kinda similar to linux deep down. | 22:39 |
| acicula | kostas_thess9: an update was installed that needs a reboot to be applied, probably a kernel update | 22:39 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, Its way more unix like than windows | 22:39 |
| guntbert | kostas_thess9: there could have been a kernel update - that requires a reboot | 22:39 |
| green453 | kostas_thess9: likely no problem, just a system update that changed kernel version, etc since last reboot | 22:39 |
| Sabre-night | guntbert, how do i rename the folder again? | 22:39 |
| TraumaQueen | yeah... but its tooo complicated. i like ununtu cause its simpler looking than mint | 22:40 |
| kpuljek | i cannot access my ntfs partition from ubuntu. i could, everything was fine, but i spent a few days in windows and now my ntfs partitions are "unknown or unused" | 22:40 |
| Sabre-night | guntbert, i han't realized i renamed it in the first place... | 22:40 |
| asathoor | in Vista you have to remove all old entrances on Wubi - and remove whatever folders that were not removed during the remove session from Windows | 22:40 |
| TraumaQueen | Ok. gone to boot from live cd again... I'll be back if I get completely lost. | 22:40 |
| azrael_ | grrrrrr | 22:40 |
| TraumaQueen | thannks edebian | 22:40 |
| Samus_Aran | where does Ubuntu set it's values for ulimit ? /etc/security/limits.conf has nothing in it, yet ulimit -a shows a ton of strict limits | 22:40 |
| kostas_thess9 | xmmm i havent change kernel . can be applied by self? with out my permision? | 22:40 |
| acicula | kpuljek: try booting windows and shutting it down properly and see if you can access it then? | 22:40 |
| duffydack | kpuljek, have you resized them ? | 22:40 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, You can get on IRC on the live Cd | 22:40 |
| guntbert | Sabre-night: <up arrow> until you get the command back | 22:40 |
| azrael_ | still need help getting flash to work | 22:40 |
| Samus_Aran | *its | 22:40 |
| TraumaQueen | yep. I may do that | 22:40 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, just install xchat or something | 22:40 |
| kpuljek | acicula: i can boot up windows and i close them properly, no difference | 22:40 |
| kpuljek | duffydack: no | 22:40 |
| edbian | TraumaQueen, No problem | 22:40 |
| acicula | kostas_thess9: well is it a server with automatic updates on? | 22:40 |
| decomp505 | hello all | 22:41 |
| LLStarks | hi. | 22:41 |
| azrael_ | yea he helped me remove everything but not how to fix it | 22:41 |
| decomp505 | I have no sessions to choose from in gdm. can anyone help? | 22:41 |
| LLStarks | can you specifiy a version with add-apt-repository? | 22:41 |
| Dr_thermal1990 | Can you change the login in screen on 9.10... I know you could do it in 9.4 | 22:41 |
| echoalpha5 | Hi | 22:41 |
| MorphyNOR | Dr_thermal1990: yes | 22:41 |
| edbian | Dr_thermal1990, yeah of course. System -> admin -> login window | 22:41 |
| kostas_thess9 | acicula yes i have it on | 22:42 |
| guntbert | !who | azrael_ | 22:42 |
| ubottu | azrael_: 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 :) | 22:42 |
| acicula | kpuljek: maybe check the partition in windows for problems ? | 22:42 |
| edbian | echoalpha5, hi | 22:42 |
| echoalpha5 | Which IRC clients are you guys using?! | 22:42 |
| acicula | kostas_thess9: well that applies updates and such ;) | 22:42 |
| guntbert | !poll | echoalpha5 | 22:42 |
| ubottu | echoalpha5: 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. | 22:42 |
| esotericbyte | pidgeon | 22:42 |
| acicula | telnet | 22:42 |
| azrael_ | i dont know how to used this chat that well | 22:42 |
| kpuljek | acicula: oh well, i'll give it a try, not like i have many options :S | 22:42 |
| kpuljek | acicula: thx | 22:42 |
| kostas_thess9 | acicula i must remove it that :S it sucks:S | 22:42 |
| prak | does anyone here happen to know where does gpe-todo store the todo list files? | 22:42 |
| Dr_thermal1990 | edbian it does not have login window anymore. | 22:42 |
| Jovial-Halgar | i'm trying to read a linux partition in windows where is the driver for that? | 22:43 |
| esotericbyte | it is complex but you can read up on using it at freenode.org | 22:43 |
| acicula | kostas_thess9: ? applying security updates is a good thing | 22:43 |
| echoalpha5 | i am just trying the irss runs in the Terminal | 22:43 |
| OerHeks | Jovial-Halgar fs-driver.org | 22:43 |
| decomp505 | I have no sessions to choose from in gdm. I have desktop files in the xsessions folder but I guess gdm isn't seeing them can anyone help? | 22:43 |
| edbian | Dr_thermal1990, really? perhaps a package is missing. I can't say I'm not on an ubuntu machine right now | 22:43 |
| kostas_thess9 | acicula yes but at security updates applies and kernel update without my permision? | 22:44 |
| guntbert | kostas_thess9: its configurable during install | 22:44 |
| edbian | Gnome has a nice little applet that shows all sorts of neat info about my battery and it's power statistics. Is there some equivalent for KDE?? | 22:44 |
| kostas_thess9 | i think i has enable it only for securitu not for kernel | 22:44 |
| acicula | kostas_thess9: well you are asked first if you want to automatically apply security updates during install | 22:45 |
| echoalpha5 | Are there also other IRCclients which rin in the Terminel? | 22:45 |
| Samus_Aran | echoalpha5: X-Chat, kvirc, ChatZilla and Opera are probably the most popular GUI clients, irssi, WeeChat, BitchX, and epic4 are the most popular text based clients. but suggest what features you like, and we can recommend a client | 22:45 |
| Dr_thermal1990 | edbian: Really it only as login screen and there are hardly any option's in there | 22:45 |
| gpryatel | Should I use svn on my local box or install on my home fileserver? | 22:45 |
| Sabre-night | guntbert, could adblock plus have anything to do with it? | 22:45 |
| edbian | Dr_thermal1990, I'm not sure :/ | 22:45 |
| guntbert | Sabre-night: really no idea - sorry | 22:45 |
| Dr_thermal1990 | edbian: It's ok. Thanks | 22:45 |
| echoalpha5 | I take a look on some of the text based, thank | 22:46 |
| === Afrix2 is now known as Afrix | ||
| azrael_ | can anyone help me get flash working | 22:46 |
| Sabre-night | guntbert, because without fixing my profole i still get the tabs bit... *goes to uninstall it* | 22:46 |
| azrael_ | ubuntu ver8.04 | 22:46 |
| decomp505 | I have no sessions to choose from in gdm. I have desktop files in the xsessions folder but I guess gdm isn't seeing them. can anyone help? | 22:46 |
| acicula | kostas_thess9: well not completely sure it updates the kernel, but i dont see why not | 22:46 |
| Jovial-Halgar | well just installed the fs-driver but when i try to open it it says you have to format it | 22:46 |
| esotericbyte | to get flash working after upgradeing firefox remove it and then reinstall it | 22:46 |
| bastid_raZor | Jovial-Halgar: that would be a #windows issue | 22:46 |
| elroacho | well I got tcpdump -i eth0>/home/sean/Desktop/tcpdump.log is there a way to get rid of the clutter | 22:46 |
| esotericbyte | you will need to have mediabuntu enabled as a repository | 22:46 |
| elroacho | just keep the IP's | 22:47 |
| kostas_thess9 | so acicula i will make restart ;) lets see if it will work:p | 22:47 |
| guntbert | kostas_thess9: kernel updates are often security updates ... | 22:47 |
| edbian | azrael_, I think I can. Are you trying to get it to work in firefox?? | 22:47 |
| azrael_ | yea | 22:47 |
| edbian | azrael_, Open up synaptic. Do you know what that is? and search for "flash" | 22:47 |
| Dasda | is there anyway to format a hdd from a live cd? i have a laptop that wont boot from hdd. I booted the laptop using ubuntu9.10livecd. Is there anyway i can format the hdd without actually installind ubuntu? I just basically want to wipe the hdd. Ubuntu is telling me the "disk is failing". That probably is true but i just want to see what it says after i format it because it says bad sectors | 22:47 |
| azrael_ | yea | 22:48 |
| Jovial-Halgar | how do i run fx-driver | 22:48 |
| OerHeks | Jovial-Halgar maybe fs-driver does not support ext4 | 22:48 |
| edbian | Dasda, used gparted. If the disk is ruined though ubuntu won't wanna touch it. | 22:48 |
| br0kenarr0w | Dasda: mkfs? | 22:48 |
| jcc1 | Samus_Aran: I use this page for tunables reference http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v6r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.websphere.express.doc/info/exp/ae/tprf_tunelinux.html | 22:48 |
| bastid_raZor | Jovial-Halgar: ask in ##windows considering you're on windows with a windows issue. | 22:48 |
| Dasda | is gparted included in ubuntu live cd? or mkfs? | 22:48 |
| green453 | Dasda: run the gnome partition editor from the live CD. Under System--->administration-->GParted | 22:48 |
| azrael_ | flashplugin_nonfree doesn't work for me | 22:49 |
| Dasda | oh ok green453 | 22:49 |
| jcdutton | Dasda, try running "smartctl -a /dev/sda" and see if the sector relocation count is greater than zero | 22:49 |
| edbian | azrael_, Ok, first un-install EVERYTHING that comes up from the search for "flash" you can only have 1 version of flash installed or they fight each other and it won't work. | 22:49 |
| Maletor | Why is grub2 actually version 1.97. How many people are the devs trying to confuse? | 22:49 |
| azrael_ | flashplugin_nonfree doesn't work for me | 22:49 |
| edbian | azrael_, what is showing as installed? just flashplugin-nonfree ? | 22:49 |
| azrael_ | yea | 22:49 |
| azrael_ | and i just removed it | 22:49 |
| Dasda | 1sec jcdbutton | 22:49 |
| edbian | azrael_, so now there is no flash players installed? | 22:49 |
| Jovial-Halgar | How do i read that dag on drive it keeps telling me it has to format it to read it | 22:50 |
| azrael_ | pretty sure | 22:50 |
| jcc1 | Samus_Aran: you might try this too http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Linux/Q_22797285.html | 22:50 |
| Jovial-Halgar | I just installed fx-driver now How do i read that dag on drive it keeps telling me it has to format it to read it | 22:50 |
| edbian | azrael_, Organize the packages by what's installed. It is critical that none of them are installed right now | 22:50 |
| OerHeks | Jovial-Halgar maybe fs-driver does not support ext4 | 22:50 |
| azrael_ | kay | 22:50 |
| Jovial-Halgar | i had that newest ubuntu | 22:50 |
| acicula | i dont think it does, just ext2/3 | 22:50 |
| karolina | hsskjsnvskj | 22:51 |
| Jovial-Halgar | i think it used ext 4 | 22:51 |
| azrael_ | yea it all removed | 22:51 |
| Preu | hi | 22:51 |
| Jovial-Halgar | but i upgraded from the older linux | 22:51 |
| Jovial-Halgar | to the newest ubuntu which i think uses ext4 | 22:51 |
| iceroot | Jovial-Halgar: then its not ext4 | 22:51 |
| Jovial-Halgar | so how do i read it | 22:51 |
| acicula | jcc1: thats closed site, doesnt list a solution | 22:51 |
| azrael_ | wat next? | 22:51 |
| esotericbyte | azreal edbian did you guys enable meidabuntu in software soruces? | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Jovial-Halgar: for that fs-driver in windows. You h ave to use its control-panel tool to actually Mount the linux drive to a drive letter last i looked. | 22:51 |
| Jovial-Halgar | how do i determine if it uses ext3 or 4 | 22:51 |
| edbian | azrael_, ok good. Now you have a couple options. There is the version from adobe (flashplugin-nonfree) if you're convinced that doesn't work I suggest gnash it's second best in my opinion but be warned flashplugin-nonfree is the best by far and works on the most sites | 22:51 |
| bastid_raZor | Jovial-Halgar: might i ask, how is this an issues considering you're on windows? the fs-driver has nothign to do with ubuntu | 22:51 |
| kostas_thess9 | anyone knows how to have support of greek languange on folders that i create on disks ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! | 22:51 |
| kostas_thess9 | and shared via samba? | 22:52 |
| edbian | esotericbyte, don't need to for flash | 22:52 |
| azrael_ | that the one i can't get to work | 22:52 |
| iceroot | Jovial-Halgar: mount | 22:52 |
| bastid_raZor | Jovial-Halgar: in ubuntu type sudo fdisk -l | 22:52 |
| Jovial-Halgar | well bastid_raZor i'm trying to read the drive from windows | 22:52 |
| OerHeks | Jovial-Halgar then install samba, and share the ext4 for a windows user | 22:52 |
| Jovial-Halgar | i'm not even sure it is ext4 could be ext3 | 22:52 |
| edbian | azrael_, try gnash it works on youtube at least | 22:52 |
| esotericbyte | edbian i think you do for Adobe flash.... no? | 22:52 |
| iceroot | Jovial-Halgar: type "mount" in the terminal to see | 22:52 |
| bastid_raZor | Jovial-Halgar: exactly, that is not a ubuntu issue. it is windows. and mount will give you the filesystem type. | 22:52 |
| edbian | esotericbyte, flashplugin-nonfree downloads flash from adobe's website | 22:53 |
| Samus_Aran | jcc1: I'm not sure why you pasted me that link ? it doesn't mention anything to do with adjusting default ulimit values | 22:53 |
| esotericbyte | ok | 22:53 |
| Jovial-Halgar | bastid_raZor windows has a mount? | 22:53 |
| edbian | esotericbyte, flash is one of the reasons that ubuntu is not completely FOSS | 22:53 |
| Samus_Aran | jcc1: and the second link, experts-exchange, is a spam site | 22:53 |
| iceroot | Jovial-Halgar: type that on linux-side | 22:53 |
| esotericbyte | edbian ... gotcha | 22:53 |
| azrael_ | still not working | 22:53 |
| administrador_ | ehy! | 22:53 |
| azrael_ | man am i retarded or sumthing | 22:53 |
| azrael_ | can't get anything to work | 22:53 |
| edbian | azrael_, You install gnash, restarted firefox completely and then tried you tube? | 22:54 |
| administrador_ | visit www.blogeek.com.ve | 22:54 |
| azrael_ | yep | 22:54 |
| Jovial-Halgar | iceroot you are not understanding i plugged in a hard drive sata to usb into a windows machine. The drive had ubuntu on it which uses ext3 or ext4 | 22:54 |
| edbian | azrael_, It is possible that firefox is not completely restarting. Look in it's plugins what is showing as the flash player? | 22:54 |
| administrador_ | hi! brothers visit my blog www.blogeek.com.ve | 22:54 |
| guntbert | administrador_: not here please | 22:54 |
| iceroot | Jovial-Halgar: yes and the ubuntu-problem is? | 22:54 |

| Jovial-Halgar | well i thought someone might know how to help me | 22:55 |
| === usuario-master is now known as Vo|d | ||
| mMezquitale | Jovial-Halgar, what is your question? what are you trying to do? | 22:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Jovial-Halgar: that ext2fs tool for windows at fs-driver.org has a control panel. You use it to addign the linux drives a widnwos drive letter - IF they are supported. | 22:55 |
| administrador_ | www.blogeek.com.ve | 22:55 |
| Dr_Willis | !ext2 | 22:55 |
| weechat2 | ok WeeChat is at least nicer than irssi | 22:55 |
| Dr_Willis | !ext3 | 22:55 |
| ubottu | ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 22:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Jovial-Halgar: install that fs-driver.org tool. check its docs/control panel icon | 22:56 |
| OerHeks | Jovial-Halgar put it back in the original pc with ubuntu, and share that drive with samba, no way you can use ext4 in windows | 22:56 |
| FloodBot1 | NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. | 22:56 |
| gmachine | Greetings Earthlings. Is there a way to save the stuff that scrolls across my screen as Ubuntu 8.04 is shutting down to halt or restart. It has to do with networking ... something about nmbus .. anyway it scrolls past faster than I can write it down. I'd like get it working again. | 22:56 |
| Jovial-Halgar | ok well i know i had the older versions of ubuntu and i upgraded twice to the newest would it have ext3 or ext4? | 22:56 |
| jellow | weechat2: I disagree | 22:57 |
| jcc1 | Samus_Aran: sorry about that last one, for some reason I had it saved, musta been drunk. have you tried googling for "permanently set ulimit on Linux" | 22:57 |
| iceroot | Jovial-Halgar: ext3 | 22:57 |
| guntbert | gmachine: you'll find it in /var/log/syslog | 22:57 |
| mataernj | hey guys" | 22:57 |
| iceroot | Jovial-Halgar: ext4 comes only with a new installation of karmic by default | 22:57 |
| Jovial-Halgar | ok so then ext3 is established the fs-driver should work | 22:57 |
| weechat2 | @gmachine you can modify the shutdown command | 22:57 |
| mMezquitale | Jovial-Halgar, like OerHeks mentioned, the read/write support I have read about is for ext2, it's not even for ext3 but it works on ext3, dont know if it works on ext4, try at your own peril | 22:57 |
| gmachine | I usually use the "sudo shutdown -h now" (or -r) commend ... can I pipe the screen output somewhere? | 22:57 |
| mataernj | visit my blog www.blogeek.com.ve | 22:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Jovial-Halgar: that fs-driver.org tool can do ext2 and ext3. but not ext4 - | 22:58 |

| weechat2 | yes with the grep command (I guess) | 22:58 |

| gliss | i should have ran them in screen | 22:59 |
| mMezquitale | esotericbyte, the only pointer I know about grub2 is that it counts partitions starting at 1, not 0 like legacy grub | 22:59 |
| tvaughn | how can i make it so i can see all the output | 22:59 |
| lstarnes | gliss: you could also use the terminal to kill nautilus then use nautilus & disown | 22:59 |
| tvaughn | it scrolls too far | 22:59 |
| tvaughn | no scroll in server =[ | 23:00 |
| bastid_raZor | tvaughn: apt-cache search packagename | less | 23:00 |
| gliss | lstarnes, when i was running mwm, all i had to do was killall -HUP mwm or something | 23:00 |
| Dr_Willis | ker0s: no idea.. - i doubt if its that simple. | 23:00 |

| guntbert | mataernj: :) | 23:00 |
| gmachine | jajjax try using the command line | 23:00 |
| traumaqueen | how do I change unallocated space to part of my edt4 space | 23:00 |
| gmachine | you can at least see what's going on | 23:00 |
| traumaqueen | I have ascreenshot of my partitions | 23:00 |
| esotericbyte | mMezquitale ... i think its because it is an lvm volume with no partion table.. in a virtual machine i think that is why it fails | 23:00 |
| ker0s | Dr_Willis: ok thanks | 23:01 |
| mMezquitale | traumaqueen, I highly suggest you use a live CD with gparted, working on partitions that are already mounted could possibly give you a headache | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | traumaqueen: gparted can resize partitions. with some work | 23:01 |
| esotericbyte | mMezquitale i can run grub install and upgrade to the right version myself... what i need to know is what else does the installer do after grub install? | 23:01 |
| traumaqueen | I am on the live cd | 23:01 |
| traumaqueen | and I am in gparted | 23:01 |
| weechat2 | it was not the grep command...sorry | 23:01 |
| Gremnon | if KDE didn't pull in the package that handles sound events, which one do you use? Or where should it be if it is installed | 23:02 |
| traumaqueen | i just cant drag the arrow on my partition to let it take up that 5 gigs of unallocated space.. | 23:02 |
| mataernj | guntbert: well thanks for telling me .. greetings from Venezuela | 23:02 |
| jamiewan_ | can someone shed some light on this problem, on certain programs, ie: vlc, sm player skype and a few others, all the text is scrambled into little icons and stuff< anyone had this problem? Jaunty | 23:02 |
| gmachine | mataernj, you are in Venez? | 23:02 |
| dath | how do i start a java app from commandline? | 23:02 |
| gmachine | dath depends on the app | 23:03 |
| jcc1 | esotericbyte: I believe you are right, you need to use the command line tools to start the vm. | 23:03 |
| dath | gmachine: its a jar file | 23:03 |
| gmachine | ahh | 23:03 |
| mMezquitale | esotericbyte, you want to go to #grub to get more info, if youre lucky youll bump into one of the developers that actually work on the app | 23:03 |
| gmachine | dath which jar file | 23:03 |
| lstarnes | dath: java -jar file.jar | 23:03 |
| dath | i can open it with right click and sun java 6 run time | 23:03 |
| dath | but i want it in app menu | 23:03 |
| traumaqueen | any ideas? | 23:03 |
| mataernj | gmachine: if your brother? | 23:04 |
| Jamed | ker0s: i *think* it would be something like uninstall grub2, install grub legacy and run sudo grub-install, but better don't try it... | 23:04 |
| gmachine | mataernj, si mi hermano que? | 23:04 |
| mMezquitale | traumaqueen, the trick is to have the available space next to the partition where you want to add it to | 23:04 |
| esotericbyte | mMezquitale that is a good idea. the other thing i am interested in is the install script.... i wonder if it's bash / python or something else. headscracth.... | 23:04 |
| Dr_Willis | traumaqueen: if one is a primary partiion and the other is not. it may take some work to get them right | 23:04 |
| traumaqueen | Ok im lost | 23:04 |
| mataernj | gmachine: tu eres de venezuela igual? | 23:04 |
| jamiewan_ | can someone shed some light on this problem, on certain programs, ie: vlc, sm player skype and a few others, all the text is scrambled into little icons and stuff< anyone had this problem? Jaunty | 23:04 |
| traumaqueen | ok... i need someone to walk me through this. i have had linux for 2 days.... i am just now starting to learn about partitions | 23:05 |
| mMezquitale | esotericbyte, ask again in the room, this time be specific so you can work one issue at a time, if you dont get an answer right now try at different time intervals | 23:06 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ do you have ms corefonts installed ? what locale are you set to? | 23:06 |
| Jovial-Halgar | Here we have an Ext3 file system which has transactions left in its journal. | 23:06 |
| Jovial-Halgar | pure Ext2 driver must not access such a volume which is in that state (to | 23:06 |
| Jovial-Halgar | prevent data loss!). | 23:06 |
| Jovial-Halgar | You may solve it by mounting it on Linux (which has a kernel with Ext3 | 23:06 |
| Jovial-Halgar | support). Be sure that you cleanly dismount it, before you shutdown Linux. | 23:06 |
| FloodBot1 | Jovial-Halgar: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:06 |
| Jovial-Halgar | oops | 23:06 |
| wlodi | dath: java -jar file.jar | 23:06 |
| Jovial-Halgar | so i have to mount it on linux | 23:06 |
| dath | ok, works. now how do i enable java support in firefox? the java checkbox is set and i have sun java installed. | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | traumaqueen: i guess a read of --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_partitioning will teach you the terms | 23:07 |
| traumaqueen | grrrr... Ok. thanks a lot. | 23:07 |
| Jovial-Halgar | would it work if i have the newest ubuntu becuase it wants a kernel with ext33 | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | well if they dont want to learn the basics.. well.. too bad i guess.. | 23:08 |
| wlodi | dath: then it should be supported | 23:08 |
| Bwarf | Hello everyone | 23:08 |
| Jovial-Halgar | actually at that point if i could access it from linux it would not matter | 23:08 |
| jamiewan_ | esotericbyte: i see ttf-mscorefonts-installer in repos | 23:08 |
| mMezquitale | traumaqueen, does the live CD allow you get on the internet? can you log in to the channel using the live cd? If so you can take snapshots or we can guide on how you can get information from your hard drive and use pastebin to paste the info to | 23:08 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ that is good | 23:08 |
| Jovial-Halgar | could i just do it from vbox inside windows and access it that way? | 23:08 |
| Bwarf | guys, I have a weirdest issue in my Ubuntu 9.10 that noone on the Internet seems to have experienced but feels fairly common | 23:08 |
| Cullen | hey | 23:08 |
| digited | hi all. I've installed Karmic 64 - how can i install 32-bit dev packages pack? | 23:08 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ and you have your locale set ? | 23:08 |
| mac9416 | How do I set the default application to open images? Opera thinks it should do everything. | 23:08 |
| Bwarf | When I type two keys too fast on my keyboard (I am a fast typer) almost simultaneously, Ubuntu sometimes gets the wrong order | 23:09 |
| Jovial-Halgar | could i access a ext3 filesystem from vbox host windows guest linux? | 23:09 |
| Cullen | how can i see which video driver is currently loaded in the latest ubuntu? i cant find an x11.conf or anything | 23:09 |
| === Growlith1 is now known as Growlithe | ||
| Bwarf | e.g. space always comes before any key | 23:09 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_i don't know what sort of junk you are seeing besides text. what does it look like? | 23:09 |
| Bwarf | if another key is pressed too quickly before it | 23:09 |
| mataernj | bay brothers! greetins from venezuela | 23:09 |
| mac9416 | Jovial-Halgar, yes, I believe so. | 23:09 |
| Bwarf | so I type thing slik ethi soften | 23:09 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ if you resize or cause the window to refresh does it somtimes correct itself? | 23:09 |
| ortsvorsteher | write slower :) | 23:09 |
| jamiewan_ | esotericbyte: i have locales set, common files for local support | 23:10 |
| Bwarf | ortsvorsteher: I don't have that problem in Windows, I tried | 23:10 |
| Bwarf | for example | 23:10 |
| Bwarf | try pressing all asdf keys together in any editor | 23:10 |
| jcc1 | dath: just go to Edit -> Prefs -> Content and enable | 23:10 |
| Bwarf | you'll ALWAYS get 'asdf' | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | Jovial-Halgar: that fs-driver.org tool should be able to access ext3 from windows. Once you configure it | 23:10 |
| dath | ah, i forgot to install the java plugin to firefox | 23:10 |
| Bwarf | even if you press it in reverse order but really fast | 23:10 |
| mMezquitale | Bwarf, you want to post your question all in one line so that everyone can follow you | 23:10 |
| mcce11 | Does closing the Terminal window kill the process that it is running? | 23:10 |
| wlodi | dath: that's what I was about to write | 23:10 |
| dath | it works now | 23:10 |
| dath | i thought it is automatically installed with java | 23:11 |
| jamiewan_ | esotericbyte: it went like it once before about 3 months ago, but seemed to fix itself, but now same prob again | 23:11 |
| Gremnon | if KDE didn't pull in the package that handles sound events, which one do you use? Or where should it be if it is installed | 23:11 |
| mac9416 | Dr_Willis, if it's a shared folder doesn't Vbox make it look like a network drive to the guest? | 23:11 |
| wlodi | dath: it should be originaly | 23:11 |
| mac9416 | mcce11, yes it does. | 23:11 |
| Dr_Willis | mac9416: vbox has its own special shares it can do with the windows machine.. or the os can do a samba share | 23:11 |
| Bwarf | In Ubuntu 9.10, if you press the keys 'asdf' in the reverse order (f, d, s, a) but do it REALLY fast, you'll still get typed 'asdf' and not 'fdsa'. | 23:11 |
| mac9416 | Dr_Willis, Ah, ok. | 23:11 |
| mMezquitale | Gremnon, what "sound events" are you referring to? there should be an option in KDE that allows you to turn on/off system sound events | 23:12 |
| mauri | I have this error using amsn "libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffff" | 23:12 |
| Bwarf | In Ubuntu 9.10, if you press the keys 'asdf' in the reverse order (f, d, s, a) but do it REALLY fast, you'll still get typed 'asdf' and not 'fdsa'. For fast typers this is a problem as although we press a certain key before some other key timely, it still gets typed in the wrong position. So we have to slow down. | 23:12 |
| Gremnon | mMezquitale, just normal events, like assigning a sound to error messages and similar that pop up | 23:12 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ i was looking at your list of applications | 23:12 |
| bazhang | Bwarf, please stop that | 23:13 |

| Bwarf | it's an interesting problem noone has noticed before | 23:13 |
| jamiewan_ | esotericbyte: yes, not all apps are doing it only a certain few | 23:13 |
| dath | is rc.local executed as root? | 23:13 |

| mMezquitale | Gremnon, have you tried enabling those settings in "sound" applet under "preferences?, that's where theyre at in ubuntu | 23:14 |
| Bwarf | hm | 23:14 |
| Bwarf | why did I get kicked? | 23:14 |

| Bwarf | what the hell, I am on topic | 23:14 |
| jamiewan_ | esotericbyte: can i compile a screen shot for you? | 23:14 |
| Gremnon | mMezquitale, this is in KDE, AFAIK that works for gnome instead | 23:15 |
| Bwarf | seriously, just try it | 23:15 |
| Bwarf | open an editor type fdsa real quick, and I mean _real_ quick. | 23:15 |
| farg | can you use scp to download all the files in a directory from another computer? | 23:15 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ does the garbage look normalized ? i mean is it always the same garbage? I am thinking that it could be that you have bad settings in tkinker or something similar... but that is just a hunch. you could try copying the settings file in your home directory to a backup location and then see if basic settings that are created solve the problem... reserching this idea now | 23:15 |
| bastid_raZor | farg: yes.. scp -r | 23:15 |
| mMezquitale | Gremnon, there should be an applet in KDE that allows you to configure sound settings, try | 23:16 |
| jcc1 | farg: yes | 23:16 |
| farg | so i dont need sftp then? what's sftp for then | 23:16 |

| mister_roboto | Gremnon: what sound are you trying to play with? there is also "multimedia | 23:17 |

| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ they are in system -> preferences -> qtr configuration | 23:29 |
| dinosaurvskitten | sn[a]ke, in fact, ubuntu itself is an elaborate prank, just to see who is silly enough to put up with it for so long | 23:30 |

| jcc1 | dinosaurvskitten: :-) | 23:30 |
| jamiewan_ | esotericbyte: ok i'll have a look | 23:30 |

| Sabre-night | New question, for anyone who has experience using Virtualbox, I need to add a USB port to my windows XP virtual machine, but Virtualbox won't let me, yet while im on the window for Windows XP (running it) it has an option for usb devices. | 23:30 |

| jamiewan_ | esotericbyte: that whole QT4 is scrambled the same way | 23:31 |
| grkblood13 | lstarnes, where does it go? | 23:31 |
| lstarnes | grkblood13: or use mutt | 23:31 |

| lstarnes | rCX: there is also ps -eo pid,nice,command | 23:34 |
| phiqtion | anyone experienced with dd-wrt and routers? | 23:34 |
| jcc1 | grkblood13: what is in /var/mail is mail to you, not from you | 23:34 |

| lstarnes | rCX: check also man ps | 23:34 |
| Xpistos | Sabre-night: good call | 23:34 |
| r0k3tm3n | phiqtion: what is your question> | 23:35 |
| Xpistos | Sabre-night: maybe a moot point then | 23:35 |
| hyperstream | azrael_, sorry i use 9.10, i opened firefox went to youtube.com and the browser installed it for me(after hitting install and so forth) | 23:35 |
| phiqtion | r0k3tm3n: can i PM? | 23:35 |
| esotericbyte | jamiewan_ headscratch... since i don't know lets ask the room | 23:35 |
| r0k3tm3n | phiqtion: sure | 23:35 |
| edbian | hyperstream, When azrael_ tries to install "flashplugin-nonfree" it says that it fails on the download. I pointed him to the .deb on the flash website and it says it can't satisfy libpango1.0-0 even though he has it installed. | 23:35 |
| azrael_ | do you know if i can upgrade to 9.10 | 23:35 |
| hyperstream | hmm | 23:35 |
| lstarnes | azrael_: not directly | 23:36 |
| kristian_ | i've copied a directory from a data cd to my desktop, i don't have permission to edit the directory or the files within it. what can i write in terminal to give "all" permission to the dir and it's content with the user im currently logged in as? | 23:36 |
| grkblood13 | the reason im asking is b/c i have a mail server that redirects mail to my gmail account, but i have a problem with a cronjob that randomly seg faults and its always sending email to my gmail account telling me it faulted | 23:36 |
| azrael_ | yea it all kinds of kicking me in the nuts | 23:36 |
| grkblood13 | im using ssmpt | 23:36 |
| lstarnes | azrael_: you need to go to 8.10, then 9.04, then 9.10 | 23:36 |
| esotericbyte | Where are the QT settings stored ... the ones set by system -> preferences -> qt4 configuration ??? | 23:36 |
| edbian | hyperstream, The dependency thing is bizzare | 23:36 |
| azrael_ | ok | 23:36 |
| hyperstream | azrael_, try: sudo apt-get install libpango1.0-dev | 23:36 |
| azrael_ | so where do you go to do that | 23:36 |
| lstarnes | azrael_: the update manager | 23:36 |
| hyperstream | azrael_, then install the .deb that edbian directed you to | 23:36 |
| jcc1 | kristian_: try man chown for your answer | 23:36 |
| edbian | hyperstream, Are you aware of a reason that the download would fail?? | 23:36 |
| azrael_ | cool its doing sumthing | 23:37 |
| lstarnes | azrael_: also, check the settings in system > administration > software sources for distribution upgrade settings | 23:37 |
| r0k3tm3n | kristian_: its 'chmod ' with some option, which i dont recall | 23:37 |
| jcc1 | kristian_: I mean "man chmod" | 23:37 |
| edoceo | I've got Karmic on a Toshiba laptop with ATI Radeon 200M - how to get the external VGA port to work? | 23:37 |
| rCX | lstarnes: Thx. | 23:37 |
| hyperstream | edbian, nope, but with dependacy issues i generally install the 'blah'-dev and it seems to function | 23:37 |
| Sabre-night | Xpistos, i can't seem to find it in the software manager or sym. package manager, what is it called exactly, if you know off hand | 23:37 |
| edoceo | When it system boots there is output on that port, then once XFCE starts the output to that port is turned off | 23:37 |
| lstarnes | rCX: you can also change nice settings via renice | 23:37 |
| jcc1 | it is chmod -R (for recursive change) | 23:37 |
| azrael_ | ok that didn't change anything same error | 23:37 |
| Sabre-night | Xpistos, vboxgtk? | 23:37 |
| hyperstream | edoceo, plug it in and go to System->Pref->Display | 23:38 |
| grkblood13 | hwo do i get ssmpt to stop sending me system email | 23:38 |
| dan123 | it's dannyup again | 23:38 |
| FloodBot1 | !netsplit | 23:38 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 23:38 |
| hyperstream | split lol | 23:38 |
| edoceo | hyperstream: done that - still only shows one screen :( | 23:38 |
| dan123 | now i have it stuck with edubuntu | 23:38 |
| edbian | azrael_, Try installing the -dev do you understand? It's a good idea hyperstream! :) | 23:38 |
| hyperstream | edoceo, doesnt detect it at all? | 23:38 |
| azrael_ | ok so ran that command and its still not wokring | 23:38 |
| deviad | See you, I gotta go | 23:38 |
| edoceo | hyperstream: correct | 23:38 |
| dan123 | how do i make it normal gnome insted of edubuntu | 23:38 |
| azrael_ | no | 23:38 |
| deviad | Goodbye. Have a good one! | 23:39 |
| edoceo | But it does work before XFCE starts - that is when I'm selecting the user that port works, but shortly after login it goes off | 23:39 |
| hyperstream | azrael_, what do you mean that command didnt work, pastebin.com the error please | 23:39 |
| jamiewan_ | can someone tell me if qt_plugins_3.3rc is all thats needed in my QT4 settins, i have scrambled fonts in a few apps and they are unusable. Jaunty | 23:39 |
| phiqtion | anyone experienced with dd-wrt and routers? | 23:39 |
| rCX | lstarnes: Is there a simple niceof command, like the pidof command that only returns the pid | 23:39 |
| hyperstream | edoceo, that is very strange, im not sure, using karmic ? | 23:39 |
| lstarnes | rCX: no | 23:39 |
| edbian | azrael_, sudo apt-get install libpango1.0-dev | 23:39 |
| kristian_ | jcc1 & r0k3tm3n : thanks! | 23:39 |
| kpuljek | i cannot access my ntfs partitions from ubuntu. it says that they are unknown or unused. i tried scanning both drives with windows disk scanner and everything went okay, i have no viruses or malware. what can i do? | 23:39 |
| edoceo | hyperstream: yep | 23:40 |
| rCX | lstarnes: ok thx again | 23:40 |
| azrael_ | error dependency is not satisfiable: libpango1.0-0 | 23:40 |
| azrael_ | that the error i keep getting | 23:40 |
| edbian | azrael_, from gdebi still? | 23:40 |
| edoceo | hyperstream: is there supposed to be an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 in karmic - I don't see one | 23:40 |
| azrael_ | yea | 23:40 |
| azrael_ | it kick my ass bro | 23:40 |
| mister_roboto | rCX: ps -ef "%n" <pid> | 23:40 |

| mister_roboto | rCX: did you look at the man page? | 23:41 |
| edbian | azrael_, See our personal convo | 23:41 |
| jcc1 | edoceo: not anymore | 23:41 |
| keres | DO NOT TRY THIS but does rm -rf / return an error, or does it actually work? DO NOT TRY THIS | 23:41 |

| hyperstream | edoceo, it figures it all out on the fly, im not sure how to go about generating one either | 23:41 |
| edoceo | Hmm, but if I create one - and force some settings - maybe I would be good? | 23:41 |
| usertwo | there must be some way ubuntu can read the firmware of a device? | 23:41 |
| r0k3tm3n | kpuljek: try reformatting the partition with qparted or partition magic | 23:41 |

| jcc1 | usertwo: if it is usb, you can monitor /var/log/syslog, I believe, when you plug it in and the system may tell you on install, or try "lsusb" | 23:49 |
| dan123 | cloacker, i do, u just have to have it at or below 69% volume | 23:49 |
| dan123 | cloacker, it overpowers the speakers over 69, you see? | 23:49 |
