| LinuX2half | ctmjr: the hostname contains the deleted nickname but then I was going to change current nickname ubuntu2009. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| OerHeks | digin4 then it should be available, not ? | 00:00 |
| digin4 | OerHeks, yes, for free too ;) | 00:00 |
| tetrach | question about sound: my device is off but when i change profiles and come back to the profile i need it kicks on again then right off after a few seconds. When i have something playing and do this the sound device stays on but when i stop whats playing it shuts off and then no sound. Any ideas? | 00:00 |
| arand | mkanyicy: well, hope it works, apart from this solution, I don't know much either. | 00:00 |
| Guest13787 | I want to add a program to the autostartup. Where to i find like the "run"-file for a program? Is there even a such file? | 00:01 |
| mkanyicy | arand, It HAS to work | 00:01 |
| LinuX2half | ctmjr: so basically all I want to do is to change my current nickname | 00:01 |
| r0k3tm3n | i ran 'ifconfig -a eth1 10.0.1.251'. now i cant connect to the internet, how do i undo that? | 00:01 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, by nickname you mean username? | 00:01 |
| LinuX2half | ctmjr: yes | 00:01 |
| Codenut | On my 8.10 desktop, there is a choice to switch to a "guest session" the session has a terrible amount of rights. | 00:01 |
| edbian | Guest13787, If you type the correct name of the program into the terminal it will start it. For example: "firefox" starts firefox. | 00:02 |
| Codenut | What is the best way to deal with this. | 00:02 |
| Codenut | ???????? | 00:02 |
| nastaros | mkanyicy, hey you still here! =) | 00:02 |
| edbian | Guest13787, These files are called "binaries" you can see some of them in /usr/bin /bin and /sbin | 00:02 |
| Maria | Anyone know why after formating to ext4 my ntfs external has on it 22gb of used content? the file system cant eat that much, right? and is it normal that the usb drive to appear like mounted? | 00:02 |
| LinuX2half | ctmjr:changing the username, wouldn't it confuse the computer when performing root privileges? | 00:02 |
| Guest13787 | okey! | 00:02 |
| arand | r0k3tm3n: A quick and dirty way is to reboot. | 00:02 |
| mkanyicy | nastaros, yes I am not here for long though | 00:02 |
| losha | r0k3tm3n: arand beat me to it... | 00:03 |
| edbian | Maria, If you formatted to ext4 then the drive cannot be ntfs. They are two different file systems. That cannot be in the same place at the same time | 00:03 |
| mkanyicy | Why do you want to change your username LinuX2half | 00:03 |
| losha | mkanyicy: admit it, you're hooked and you can't leave.... | 00:03 |
| edbian | Guest13787, Helpful? | 00:03 |
| r0k3tm3n | losha: arand: ok, thnks, hopefully it works | 00:03 |
| smiley | efnet | 00:03 |
| ctmjr | LinuX2half: what username do you want? | 00:03 |
| mkanyicy | losha, maybe ;) | 00:03 |
| LinuX2half | ctmjr: just ubuntu | 00:03 |
| ljamisonii | losha: well everything installed alright..I'm just having trouble starting the program itself lol..thanks for the help | 00:04 |
| tetrach | anyone know why my digital sound might kick on and off. i would like it to stay permanently on so i dont have to goto preference every time to kick it back on | 00:04 |
| Guest13787 | edbian: so in the "command"-field, i just wrote "xbmc". And that should do it | 00:04 |
| Guest13787 | ? | 00:04 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, do you mean IRC nickname? | 00:04 |
| losha | ljamisonii: what is the program. I'm not sure you ever told us.... | 00:04 |
| Maria | edbian I want it ext4 not ntfs, that's why I formated, but I don't understand why something unknown is eating 22 gb of space and why it appears as mounted even if it's ext4 now and not ntfs anymore | 00:04 |
| mezimezim | Hi there! | 00:05 |
| mkanyicy | hi mezimezim | 00:05 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: Well, the name doesn't fit because the number isn't right | 00:05 |
| mezimezim | Anyone ever notice that the "Caps lock" button in Ubuntu is actually a "Shif Lock" button | 00:05 |
| mezimezim | This is annoying | 00:05 |
| losha | Maria: ext3 is a better choice than ext4, and an ext4 volume can be mounted just like an ntfs volume. How big is the disk? | 00:05 |
| mezimezim | anyway to change this? | 00:05 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: No, I meant my computer | 00:06 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, to change the computer name (hostname) edit the /etc/hostname file and the /etc/hosts file | 00:06 |
| edbian | Maria, Any file system can be mounted. I'm not sure why 22gb is filled. Look at it! Does it appear empty? | 00:06 |
| ljamisonii | losha: Oh sorry lol...It's Halo Combat Evolved | 00:06 |
| raygn | Have an SFTP server that chroots the user but If I change the permissions to give the group permissions the user cannot login anymore | 00:06 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, to change the username (the login name) use "sudo usermod ... " | 00:06 |
| losha | ljamisonii: sorry, out of my depth with that stuff. Good luck... | 00:07 |
| Maria | losha it's 1.36 tb (1.5)///// but why is ext3 better than 4? ... edbian it's emty | 00:07 |
| Maria | but when i check it tells me it has 22 gb used after format lol | 00:07 |
| ljamisonii | losha: not a problem...thanks again ^_^ | 00:07 |
| ljamisonii | exit | 00:08 |
| edbian | Maria, What program is reporting 22gb used? | 00:08 |
| Maria | both gparted and my file browser | 00:08 |
| arand | r0k3tm3n: I think the problem is that that command makes networking for that particualar interface (eth1) managed manually and disables NetworkManagers control over it, so what would need doing is to let N-M regain control over it, something I do not know how to do (and have been trying to find out for some time myself...) | 00:08 |
| edbian | Maria, odd | 00:08 |
| Maria | yes | 00:08 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: but wouldn't it cause confusion when performing root actions? | 00:08 |
| edbian | Maria, but there is nothing in there?? | 00:09 |
| Maria | nothing | 00:09 |
| Maria | there was a folder called lost and found | 00:09 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, what confusion? | 00:09 |
| edbian | Maria, Well, I would say, try to fill it! ha ha | 00:09 |
| Maria | but it was unreadable | 00:09 |
| Larno | hey! i m using xunbutu! it s kinda cool but i want to get back to Windows XP | 00:09 |
| ctmjr | LinuX2half:id username then sudo usermod -l oldname newname then sudo usermod -u number that id gave you newname | 00:09 |
| Larno | j/k | 00:09 |
| seanbright | good evening - i am running karmic on a remote machine and i would like to change the window manager that a given user is using via script. i have scoured the sites and have run into a ton of conflicting information. i'm just looking for an easy way to say "user X should use blackbox wm" if this is too vague or the wrong venue, i apologize in advance. | 00:09 |
| Larno | whats up | 00:09 |
| losha | Maria: because if you ever have to move it to a different machine or different version of linux, or use a 3rd party app on it, ext3 is far more widely supported.... | 00:09 |
| raygn | any idea why if I chmod 775 on users directory that they own they cannot login via sftp anymore otherwise if I leave it 755 they login and it is chrooted to their homoe | 00:10 |
| edbian | Maria, unreadable? Is it broken? | 00:10 |
| Maria | yes | 00:10 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: the username that you chose will be in many files and if you just change your username without configuring the files then you'll be denied of using root power | 00:10 |
| Larno | you can chmod 755 entire directory ? | 00:10 |
| _Tristan1 | anybody know a way to not have mounted volumes show up on the desktop (gnome)? | 00:10 |
| mkanyicy | ctmjr, LinuX2half unless you have an entry in /etc/sudoers file like "username ALL=(ALL) ALL" and %admin disabled, you can even lock yourself out! | 00:11 |
| edbian | raygn, Because if they are accessing through ftp they are logged in under some other user (one with ftp in the name) I can't remember exactly what it is. | 00:11 |
| Larno | like every file will be executable ? | 00:11 |
| arand | r0k3tm3n: erm... better wording: "Disables N-Ms control over the interface, meaining from that point it has to be configured manually. (...)" | 00:11 |
| edbian | Larno, yes, 644 would make a lot more sense | 00:11 |
| Larno | come on | 00:11 |
| OerHeks | formatting a drive 1Tb -7% | 00:11 |
| raygn | edbian, they are loggin in with SFTP that is the only way they can connect | 00:11 |
| Maria | OMG after second format it just gave me an error | 00:11 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, no, that is not true | 00:11 |
| _Tristan1 | anybody know a way to not have mounted volumes show up on the desktop (gnome)? | 00:11 |
| losha | Maria: 22G seems a tad high, but that may be an ext4 thing. My ext3 1.5TB disk lost about 13G in overhead when I formatted it. An empty directory containing a single lost+found directory is exactly what an empty linux volume should look like... | 00:11 |
| edbian | raygn, yeah, so they are under the ftp user | 00:12 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, when you change username the user ID stays the same UNLESS you say it must change as well | 00:12 |
| Maria | i see, than i'll go for ext3 | 00:12 |
| losha | Maria: what *kind* of error....? | 00:12 |
| Larno | yer not on ext3 at the moment ? | 00:12 |
| CShadowRun | _Tristan1: alt+f2, gconf-editor. Apps > Nautilus > Desktop. Untick "volumes_visible" | 00:12 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: hmm, it could be a mistake but I've heard that somewhere but it only led to the suspicion that why you can't change the username on the basic setting. | 00:13 |
| Larno | ext2 is so 2000 | 00:13 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, and when you change the username using usermod, the passwd files are modified accordingly EXCEPT /etc/sudoers!! | 00:13 |
| Maria | damn, i closed it losha | 00:13 |
| _Tristan1 | CShadowRun: thanks, figured it was something in there | 00:13 |
| CShadowRun | _Tristan1: np :) | 00:13 |
| losha | Maria: never mind, reformat it. gparted is a good program to use, but there are many others... | 00:13 |
| deviad | When I run pulseaudio -D, I get: "E: main.c: Daemon startup failed." Can anyone pls help me? | 00:13 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, so you have to run "sudo visudo" first and confirm that at least the %admin line is not commented | 00:13 |
| Larno | yeah format everything | 00:13 |
| Larno | dont forget to press the Y | 00:14 |
| Maria | allright thanks, i'll try | 00:14 |
| raygn | edbian, what you mean ftp user. They have actual user accounts are part of the sftp group that only allows them to connect to their home directory that is chrooted as / so they cannot navigate the system | 00:14 |
| Dr_Willis | losha: dont forget teh 5% reserved normally on ext2/3/4 for 'rescue' operations | 00:14 |
| losha | deviad: pulseaudio is a mess. Weren't you running a real-time kernel, or was that someone else? | 00:14 |
| nastaros | arand, i tryped "sudo dmraid -rE" it wanted to do something on my raid array, so i shutted down my computer, unplugged my raid, booted and tried again, it said "sudo: dmraid: command not found" then i tried "sudo apt-get remove dmraid", it erased something, I launched the installer and it still doesn't see my HDD | 00:14 |
| arand | nastaros: Things working out? | 00:14 |
| Larno | there s an ext5 coming soon btw | 00:14 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, that is the basic setting | 00:15 |
| deviad | losha, I am | 00:15 |
| mkanyicy | Larno, ext5? aww come on | 00:15 |
| Repentinus | Larno, they just want to win fat32 in version number race ;) | 00:15 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/m96c6f07 | 00:15 |
| Larno | seriously ! | 00:16 |
| Larno | well not really | 00:16 |
| arand | nastaros: Hmm, so you do have a raid setup on the computer? | 00:16 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: does it seemed that the admin is commented? | 00:16 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, yes this is superfine | 00:16 |
| Ingsoc | I have a problem with audio after most recent update today, audio in the right channel especially sounds muddy. Using ubuntu 9.10 64bit, I just did a update that included libopenal I think. Can anyone help troubleshoot? | 00:16 |
| nastaros | yea, but i want to install ubuntu on a single 500gb HDD | 00:16 |
| losha | deviad: we don't see a lot of rt kernel users here. You might have a hard time getting support. Ubuntu studio is based on an rt kernel. Might have better luck on their mailing list... | 00:16 |
| OerHeks | Larno maybe there is a futuretimeline | 00:16 |
| deviad | http://pastebin.com/d1f7c440c | 00:16 |
| ratbox | Question" why does network manager refuse to reconnect after waking out of standby? (running Ac!D Linux, based on Ubuntu 8.04.3) | 00:17 |
| deviad | That is the output anyways | 00:17 |
| Repentinus | Btw, has anyone tried 10.04 alpha already? | 00:17 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: okay then if its not commented why I can't modify the username on the basic setting? | 00:17 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, the admin group is granted root priviledges which is the default and right thing to do | 00:17 |
| snake | so... can i edit the places menu? | 00:17 |
| === tato is now known as tato42 | ||
| Larno | nope, because ye re a snake | 00:17 |
| jtaji | ratbox: we don't support derivatives in here.. but I can say that it's been much improved in 9.10... works perfectly here | 00:17 |
| nastaros | arand, yea, but i want to install ubuntu on a single 500gb HDD | 00:17 |
| snake | Larno, seriously! | 00:17 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: Yes I have given the admin account full privileges before deleting my old one | 00:17 |
| Larno | lemme check | 00:17 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, what basic setting are you talking about? | 00:17 |
| Larno | well ye are | 00:17 |
| ratbox | okay, I'm running straight Ubuntu 8.04.3 then, NOW can you help me? | 00:18 |
| losha | deviad: I would think it would have to run as root to get a high priority thread..... | 00:18 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, of course YOU CAN!! | 00:18 |
| deviad | losha, in theory there should be no need for it to be run as root | 00:18 |
| snake | Larno, actually i am a human my name is snake on irc though | 00:18 |
| losha | deviad: in theory, it shouldn't have any bugs. So? | 00:18 |
| jtaji | ratbox: my advice remains the same.. upgrade to 9.10 | 00:18 |
| Larno | sudo rules.. if yer mum dont want it, sudo will help | 00:18 |
| Repentinus | snake, names are capitalized. | 00:18 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: the basic setting consist of username/real name and password | 00:18 |
| jtaji | ratbox: 8.04 might make sense on a server.. but not for desktop and especially not for laptops | 00:19 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, uh huh? the "usermod" command? | 00:19 |
| ratbox | screw 9.10 NOTHING of mine works right, usually 3 reboots every few hours, I'm staying at 8.04.3 | 00:19 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, the "basic setting" terminology confuses me | 00:19 |
| Larno | yer mum dont want ye to have a joint, just sudo | 00:19 |
| snake | ALL I NEED TO KNOW IS HOW TO CHANGE MY EFF'ING PLACES TAB AT THE TOP I DONT NEED MORE PEOPLE MAKING FUN OF ME! OR MY NAME ON IRC | 00:20 |
| losha | jtaji: ratbox: I run 8.04 on my server, my desktop *and* my laptop. Just so you know.... | 00:20 |
| mkanyicy | !caps | snail | 00:20 |
| ubottu | snail: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 00:20 |
| mkanyicy | !caps | snake | 00:20 |
| Dr_Willis | snake: short answer - yiou dont.. You can add shortcuts.. but thats abiout it | 00:20 |
| ubottu | snake: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 00:20 |
| Larno | all ye need is to lower yer caps mate | 00:20 |
| maco | snake: whatever you put in the left side pane in your file browser goes in there | 00:20 |
| ctmjr | mkanyicy: i got confused awhile ago as too what he wants | 00:20 |
| mkanyicy | snail, sorry | 00:20 |
| Repentinus | snake, there's no need to get angry. | 00:20 |
| snake | sorry... | 00:20 |
| Shazam | I want a partition on my backup disk to automount under my user directory. I have it in the /etc/fstab file, and its automounting. However, the mountpoint i'd created had owner/group permissions of <user>/<user>, and when I restarted they were <root>/<root>, and the data that I had been storing in that mountpoint was gone | 00:20 |
| nagchampa | i've set up a shared folder through the file browser interface, but when i've logged into the share as the user that owns it, i still don't have write access | 00:20 |
| Larno | shazam server or personal computer | 00:20 |
| arand | nastaros: and this is with the single 500gb-hd plugged in and the raid plugged out? | 00:20 |
| losha | snake: if you're going to use a name like snake, you have to expect a bit of joshing.... | 00:21 |
| snake | maco, thankyou | 00:21 |
| Shazam | Larno: Personal, but I'd like to know the right way to do it as well | 00:21 |
| Larno | cant help, yer on yer own, happy new year | 00:21 |
| snake | yeah i actually dont care i like to put on little shows | 00:21 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, is basic setting means "usermod" then go ahead | 00:21 |
| Shazam | Larno: 'preciate it | 00:21 |
| nagchampa | snake... SNAAAAAAAAKE... | 00:21 |
| Larno | dont mention it | 00:21 |
| JimmyJ | lol I trol u | 00:21 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, but don't try to change the UID | 00:21 |
| snake | i actually come here and tell people what i dreamed about last night sometimes... | 00:21 |
| JimmyJ | Snake, press the action button! Huh? | 00:21 |
| Serinth | anybody know off the top of their head if you can install ubuntu on an external hard drive plugged into USB? Thinking of buying one of those hard drive dock thingies so i don't have to dual boot on this machine. | 00:22 |
| Larno | oh dear | 00:22 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: UID? Why not? I thought it would increase by 1 if you change a name? | 00:22 |
| arand | snake: #ubuntu-offtopic . This is a support channel. | 00:22 |
| nagchampa | srsly though, if the user i'm logging into the share with has local write access, why doesn't he have write access remotely? | 00:22 |
| nagchampa | the user owns the files | 00:22 |
| Larno | does anyone in here run unbuntu on a server and not on mum's xmas present ? | 00:22 |
| losha | Serinth: as long as your mobo can boot off an external usb drive, it should work fine. But not all mobos can do that, especially older ones.... | 00:23 |
| snake | bye all | 00:23 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, no it wont, unless you CREATE a new user | 00:23 |
| nastaros | arand, yes, only my 500gb HDD is plugged atm | 00:23 |
| nagchampa | Larno: all the real linux servers are centos :P | 00:23 |
| Larno | lol | 00:23 |
| Larno | not supported my friend | 00:23 |
| Serinth | losha, mine does boot off USB. So i guess that solves that issue. I was just curious if the ubuntu install recognized the USB hard drive really | 00:23 |
| adam83 | hello all, I have a very basic question. Where do apps downloaded from Synaptic go? I just downloaded Samba, as I want to create a file share between ubuntu box and 2 macbooks | 00:23 |
| Ingsoc | I have a problem with audio after most recent update today, audio in the right channel especially sounds muddy. Using ubuntu 9.10 64bit, I just did a update that included libopenal I think. Can anyone help troubleshoot? | 00:23 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, but which "basic setting" were you refering to? | 00:23 |
| Larno | centos is quite interesting but not er professional | 00:23 |
| Larno | esx is | 00:23 |
| nastaros | arand, the sudo dmraid -rE killed my raid and all data on it... | 00:23 |
| Spo8 | anyone know why the installer would hang the second something is selected from the boot splash screen? the "Try Ubuntu without changes..." ""Install" "Check disc..." one? | 00:24 |
| nagchampa | Larno: centos is redhat, with no branding | 00:24 |
| Larno | nope | 00:24 |
| jtaji | Larno: many of us do.. and pretty much everyone in #ubuntu-server ;) | 00:24 |
| losha | Larno: I run 8.04 on my server. There is a 'server' version. But if I ran a commercial server, it would be centos :-) | 00:24 |
| Larno | RHEL is supported | 00:24 |
| Larno | not centos | 00:24 |
| nastaros | arand, how can i restore it? this is important | 00:24 |
| mkanyicy | Ingsoc, tried #lad or #alsa ? | 00:24 |
| nagchampa | anyone know how to set up a share in ubuntu so the owner, but no one else, can write to it from the network? | 00:24 |
| Ingsoc | mkanyicy: thanks | 00:24 |
| bogdomania | Ingsoc, did you upgraded what >? alsa,oss pulseaudio.. ? did you cecked the audio settings? | 00:24 |
| Spo8 | successfully boots to the disc, but fails the second anything is chosen. installed ubuntu countless times, but never had this happen and I can't figure it out. | 00:25 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: the basic settings can be access from System --> Administration --> User and Group --> Admin --> Click Properties | 00:25 |
| Scott1979 | i hate that i just helped a guy with his problem and i didnt even get a thanks | 00:25 |
| Larno | losha, you can kiss good bye to yer software support then | 00:25 |
| arand | nastaros: er.. I can see that. | 00:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !info samba-doc | nagchampa | 00:25 |
| ubottu | nagchampa: samba-doc (source: samba): Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.1 (karmic), package size 7813 kB, installed size 16080 kB | 00:25 |
| nagchampa | yes, i've read the documentation, i know how to do it with smb.conf | 00:25 |
| Ingsoc | bogdomania: I am not sure exactly which packages were updated, is there a log that the update manager keeps somewhere? | 00:25 |
| Larno | try man | 00:25 |
| Dr_Willis | nagchampa: then i would do it with smb.conf and not mess with the gui | 00:25 |
| Shazam | Spo8: Did you do a mem-check? sometimes bad ram won't be evident until then | 00:25 |
| mclark1129 | Can anyone assist me in setting up a network printer that's connected to a Windows machine? | 00:25 |
| adam83 | I just downloaded Samba via synaptic, where did it install to, I cannot find it in the upper left menus? I searched for it and it is in a folder called "etc" | 00:25 |
| Larno | lol | 00:26 |
| losha | Larno: well, there are people who will support centos, either in-house or 3rd party, but further discussion would be off-topic I'll bet.... | 00:26 |
| Larno | mclark1129, | 00:26 |
| Shazam | mclark1129: do you have samba installed? | 00:26 |
| nagchampa | Dr_Willis: i was thinking the smae thing, i just thought there might be something i'm missing in the gui | 00:26 |
| Dr_Willis | !samba | adam83 | 00:26 |
| ubottu | adam83: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 00:26 |
| nastaros | arand, i plugged in my raid back | 00:26 |
| Larno | true losha, and off any support.. that said, i agree that centos is improving | 00:26 |
| mclark1129 | I believe so, the option to connect to a Windows printer is available in System > Administration > Printing | 00:26 |
| Larno | but not supported | 00:26 |
| mclark1129 | I am running Karmic | 00:26 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, ok, the gui app, that's basic enough, ;) | 00:26 |
| Spo8 | Shazam: I haven't, but I'd be surprised as this machine has been working flawlessly. Choosing mem-check from the ubuntu disc makes it hang as well, so I'm not sure what to do. | 00:27 |
| Larno | IBM, Dell, HP, not supporting centos | 00:27 |
| losha | adam83: samba is a service, not really a user app, that's why it's not in your menus.... | 00:27 |
| Ingsoc | bogdomania: http://pastebin.com/m75199809 | 00:27 |
| dim3000 | Can someone help my with my webcam??? | 00:27 |
| mclark1129 | I'm actually using centos to run samba to act as a fileserver for windows machine | 00:27 |
| mclark1129 | It works quite well. | 00:27 |
| mclark1129 | windows machines* | 00:27 |
| Serinth | dim3000, only if you're a hot female. | 00:27 |
| mclark1129 | In fact the network is solely windows clients. | 00:27 |
| mkanyicy | mclark1129, so you are using centos but running (away from) karmic? | 00:27 |
| dim3000 | Serinth: whatever u want me to be | 00:28 |
| dim3000 | just help | 00:28 |
| adam83 | Dr_Willis I thiought Samba was necessary for creating a file share between mac and ubuntu as well. I want this ubuntu box to be a file repository for 2 macbooks so we can backup and store files on it, if this is incorrect, what would you recommend, thank you sir! | 00:28 |
| mclark1129 | mkanyicy. No not at all. | 00:28 |
| mclark1129 | I am using karmic on my personal laptop | 00:28 |
| Dr_Willis | adam83: in theory os-x can do smb nfs and ssh if you want it to | 00:28 |
| Larno | mclark1129, we just were talking about profesional stuff.. not yer home server holding the photos of yer niece | 00:28 |
| mkanyicy | mclark1129, just kidding, fun never killed anyone ;) | 00:28 |
| Larno | j/k here as well | 00:29 |
| adam83 | losha thank you, perhaps it is not what I want then, I am trying to create a file share between my 2 macbooks and this Ubuntu box so that the macbooks can store important files here | 00:29 |
| oleg_ | всем привет)) | 00:29 |
| Dr_Willis | adam83: my imac connected to my samba shares by defauot.. mac to mac can also do appletalk i think | 00:29 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: yeah, it seemed that when I run the usermod -l ubuntu ubuntu2009, it said that user ubuntu2009 is currently log in, so does that mean I have to log out to change the name? | 00:29 |
| mclark1129 | whew, anyways.. back to my printer :) | 00:29 |
| arand | nastaros: Yea, that -rE thing seems to be bad, not at all what we wanted.. Now the manual for dmraid claims it should have backed up whatever it did remove there: http://pastebin.com/m6fecce53 | 00:29 |
| Dawgmatix_ | my sata 1.5 TB hdd isnt being detected under ubuntu, I had followed up on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/396738 by providing relevant info, but there seems to be no response, how do i get some developers attention ? | 00:29 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, yes you can do this to go to single user mode "sudo init 1" | 00:29 |
| dim3000 | Can someone help my with my webcam??? | 00:29 |
| Larno | but guys seriously, if one day you ll try to deal with SAN, Storage and stuff. EMC, Clariion and so on | 00:30 |
| losha | adam83: I've set up nfs successfully between mac and ubuntu. I agree with Dr_Willis. You can pretty much choose your protocol depending on whats on your network... | 00:30 |
| mclark1129 | If I open System > Administration >Printing and choose "New Printer..." | 00:30 |
| Larno | centos is nothing | 00:30 |
| Dawgmatix_ | dim3000 sure | 00:30 |
| Dawgmatix_ | what model is it ? | 00:30 |
| erkan^ | no idea, dim3000 | 00:30 |
| erkan^ | :s | 00:30 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, but save your running apps first!! | 00:30 |
| erkan^ | with a pidgin? | 00:30 |
| Dr_Willis | dim3000: install 'cheese' plug in cam.. run cheese.. see if it works... | 00:30 |
| adam83 | Dr_Willis I am clearly not as advanced with this as you. Can you tell me/point me in direction of a method of setting up a file share between my macs and this ubuntu | 00:30 |
| dim3000 | Dawgmatix_: logitech clicksmart 420 (old) | 00:30 |
| mclark1129 | I then select Network Printer, options appear and I select "Windows Printer via samba" | 00:31 |
| Dawgmatix_ | what does lsusb tell you about the camera ... | 00:31 |
| Dr_Willis | adam83: i just had some shares made on my ubuntu box. then used the mac gui thing to connedt to the share. it showed up as an icon ion my mac desktop. | 00:31 |
| joe_erg | any one got experience running Xfbdev? | 00:31 |
| dim3000 | Dawgmatix_: its there | 00:31 |
| mkanyicy | Ingsoc, I am sorry you rather post this side, those channels are have zombie users | 00:31 |
| mclark1129 | When I click browse, I am told no shares are available | 00:31 |
| mclark1129 | My windows machine is set up on the workgroup "MSHOME" and print sharing IS enabled. | 00:31 |
| Larno | mclark1129, what exactly do you want to print? this may have an effect on yer printer | 00:31 |
| Darkedge | Can someone just tell how to add https://launchpad.net/~pmcenery/+archive/ppa as a source? -_- | 00:31 |
| adam83 | Dr_Willis do I need to download special app to my macbook? | 00:32 |
| mclark1129 | Larno, I'd like to print EVERYTHING :) but e-mails, pdfs, mostly. | 00:32 |
| Dawgmatix_ | which app are you trying to use? | 00:32 |
| Dr_Willis | adam83: i dident have to in my imac dv using OS-X 10.3.9 | 00:32 |
| Larno | oh dear.. a macbook | 00:32 |
| nastaros | arand, where do i find those name_formatname.dat and devicename_formatname.offset ? i doubt it saved anywhere since i booted from CD.... | 00:32 |
| dim3000 | Dawgmatix_: cheese shows nothing | 00:32 |
| Larno | ok mate | 00:32 |
| dim3000 | Dawgmatix_: when i tried to test it | 00:32 |
| Larno | what type of printer | 00:32 |
| mclark1129 | HP C4200 | 00:32 |
| Larno | and yer running unbuntu | 00:33 |
| mclark1129 | Yes | 00:33 |
| mclark1129 | Here's one curious thing | 00:33 |
| nastaros | arand, that raid is my storage device, all my software and inportant thing are on it.. =( | 00:33 |
| raygn | have a sftp server that uses a sftp group and chroots the user to their home directory, works great if I leave home permissions 755, but If I change it to 775 the user cannot log in anymore | 00:33 |
| mclark1129 | When I first ran the network setup wizard on my windows box | 00:33 |
| mclark1129 | and set up the work group | 00:33 |
| Larno | ok i will just send ye a link that will give ye a lot of help | 00:33 |
| mclark1129 | the share appeared (at least the machine and WG, not the printer share itself) | 00:33 |
| Larno | hold on | 00:33 |
| mclark1129 | w3rd | 00:33 |
| spO | Jaunty played 1080p movies better than Karmic does | 00:34 |
| Larno | http://consumerist.com/2009/12/hp-ink-costs-more-than-human-blood.html | 00:34 |
| erkan^ | I can not open wiht a camera on pidgin :( | 00:34 |

| Dawgmatix_ | dim3000 - well look up your device id and vendor id and search for them on http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca5xx.html - if you find somehting that matches youre in luck | 00:34 |

| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, did you do a "sudo init 1" or you rebooted? | 00:36 |
| dim3000 | Dawgmatix_: search for Clicksmart 420 on that page | 00:36 |
| Dawgmatix_ | erkan - try empaty see if it works | 00:36 |

| dim3000 | Dawgmatix_: how can I use it? cheese cant show it? | 00:37 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy, then I was entered into text mode login form | 00:37 |
| Shazam | if i enter an option in the <options> column in my fstab file, does that mean I have to manually enter all of the otherwise default options, or are the defaults presumed unless explicitly overridden | 00:37 |
| FCalderon | Hello, where can I find the DNS servers that my internet connection is actually using? | 00:37 |
| erkan^ | what is emaptie? | 00:37 |
| erkan^ | sorry | 00:37 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, and then what did you do? | 00:37 |
| alone | moin | 00:37 |
| erkan^ | i am by opensuse 11.2 iflema | 00:37 |
| Larno | lol | 00:37 |
| iflema | huh | 00:37 |
| erkan^ | a friend for me have ubuntu, but same problem by pidgin cam | 00:37 |
| alone | upps, not a germany? | 00:38 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy, I then type usermod -l ubuntu ubuntu2009 | 00:38 |
| Dawgmatix_ | dim3000 - http://mxhaard.free.fr/download.html download, compile install ... | 00:38 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, the computer never rebooted, it just switched runlevels | 00:38 |
| erkan^ | what is empaty, Dawgmatix_ ? | 00:38 |

| Dawgmatix_ | no dim3000 | 00:38 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy, I can't seem to exit this phase | 00:38 |
| erkan^ | een camera is in mijn laptop ingebouwd, OerHeks | 00:38 |
| eTiger13 | does anyone else have problems with X11 forwarding from a remote server on Karmic? | 00:38 |
| erkan^ | oeps | 00:38 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, which phase? | 00:38 |
| Larno | listen, the computer rebooted because it was its destiny | 00:38 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: so I directly rebooted my computer again | 00:38 |
| erkan^ | een camera in mijn laptop ingebwoud | 00:38 |
| erkan^ | grrr slechte zinsbouw | 00:39 |
| nagchampa | you know, i think the security thing is actually windows, because i dont' have the same username there, and it's seeing the linux permissions and going "nope, you're not him" even though i've logged in as him... | 00:39 |
| OerHeks | erkan^ type nr laptop ? | 00:39 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, no you never rebooted, you switched runlevels | 00:39 |
| mclark1129 | Has anyone used Ubuntu server as an enterprise domain controller? | 00:39 |
| erkan^ | compaq | 00:39 |
| Dawgmatix_ | dim3000 - btw try this - modprobe uvcvideo | 00:39 |
| Larno | ha ha | 00:39 |
| Larno | domain controller | 00:39 |
| Dawgmatix_ | before you install uvcvideo to see in case that fixes things | 00:39 |
| erkan^ | presario | 00:39 |
| culinor | i love linux | 00:39 |
| Larno | what type of domain are you talking about | 00:39 |
| Dawgmatix_ | if it doesnt, then install gspca | 00:39 |
| reyarth | hello, whats the command for enter in ubuntu italy? | 00:40 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: Yes like you said it had switched run levels but I reboot the computer directly because I can't exit. | 00:40 |
| Larno | if thats an LDAP thing, yep, works great | 00:40 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, oh you rebooted? you can choose recovery mode from grub menu and then re-enter this command | 00:40 |
| erkan^ | i can not good follow here, here is very busy | 00:40 |
| erkan^ | :S | 00:40 |
| mclark1129 | Like a DC that windows machines can log into just like they would via Windows Server. | 00:40 |
| Larno | oh dear | 00:40 |
| nozes | oi | 00:41 |
| OerHeks | erkan^ goto ubuntu-nl | 00:41 |
| g3org3s | hello, anyone german here ? | 00:41 |
| Larno | yes you | 00:41 |
| BlackFate | !de | 00:41 |
| ubottu | In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. | 00:41 |
| g3org3s | lol no not me :p thanks anyway | 00:41 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: recovery mode? But wouldn't it produce the same result | 00:41 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, CTRL+D was gonna liberate you from a pitch-black screen | 00:41 |
| erkan^ | i have found --> #pidgin, OerHeks | 00:41 |
| SirBlargh | hey guys, is there anyone able to help troubleshoot an NFS issue that has cropped up after some hardware was changed? | 00:41 |
| Larno | mm ok | 00:41 |
| Larno | go ahead SirBlargh | 00:42 |
| nastaros | arand, found anything yet? | 00:42 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: okay, but it would ask you to login and you need to type the password. So it might not work. | 00:42 |
| Dawgmatix_ | my sata 1.5 TB hdd isnt being detected under ubuntu, I had followed up on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/396738 by providing relevant info, but there seems to be no response, how do i get some developers attention ? | 00:42 |
| reyarth | please, what is the command for enter in ubuntu italia?? | 00:42 |
| SirBlargh | I swapped motherboards / proc / ram and kept the disks intact. The ethernet NIC changed as well. | 00:42 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, I dont know, but is the username "ubuntu" permitted? | 00:42 |
| Larno | ok | 00:43 |
| SirBlargh | (This was on the nfs server.) | 00:43 |
| Larno | so far so good | 00:43 |
| SirBlargh | now on the clients, some times I can mount the locations, but the connection very quickly dies off | 00:43 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: hm, what would be the basic requirements for an accepted username? | 00:43 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, do you have a password for the root? | 00:43 |
| reyarth | qualcuno italiano?? | 00:43 |
| faileas | ok, basically, i need a REALLY light GUI im client. In my current setup pidgin requires about 100 mb of extra space. i tried a self compiled version of ayttm (there's supposed to be a version in the repos but i can't find it) which crashes a lot... so.. any other ideas? | 00:43 |
| SirBlargh | on the client, I'll see the following: nfs: server blargh-server not responding, still trying | 00:43 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: password? Yes. | 00:43 |
| SirBlargh | on the server itself, I see nothing more than the authenticated mount request | 00:44 |
| Larno | er | 00:44 |
| Larno | ok | 00:44 |
| SirBlargh | for the record, a samba share works just fine on the same directory | 00:44 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, this WILL work, | 00:44 |
| Larno | ok | 00:44 |
| Larno | so that s a server right ? | 00:44 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, just reboot and go to recovery mode and at the password prompt, type the password for the root | 00:44 |
| Larno | what type of server | 00:44 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, and then type that command | 00:44 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: wait so I'll use the command using root power; sudo usermod -l | 00:45 |
| SirBlargh | the new file server hardware is just an atom 330 cpu | 00:45 |
| SirBlargh | let me pull up the specs on the motherboard... | 00:45 |
| xapel | is it possible to transfer songs to my ipod from within rhythmbox? | 00:45 |
| Larno | i dont need it | 00:45 |
| Larno | RAID config ? | 00:45 |
| SirBlargh | no raid, just 4 discs in an LVM setup | 00:45 |
| Larno | i see | 00:45 |
| mclark1129 | How can I see if samba is a trusted application on my firewall? | 00:45 |
| reyarth | #ubuntu-it-chat | 00:46 |
| Larno | how big is it again ? | 00:46 |
| SirBlargh | (this is just a home file server) | 00:46 |
| Larno | i mean the server space | 00:46 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy:hm, it still doesn't work either | 00:46 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, ensure that you don't log in as the user "ubuntu2009" when you specify this command | 00:46 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: Then I'll login as root? | 00:46 |
| SirBlargh | /dev/mapper/fileserver-home is 4.0T | 00:46 |
| Larno | with no redundancy whatsoever | 00:47 |
| Larno | no raid | 00:47 |
| SirBlargh | correct | 00:47 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, that's what I have been trying to tell you all along by this RECOVERY MODE evangel | 00:47 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: well it might be dangerous if I access the root account but could I have create another user account | 00:47 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half1, dangerous? | 00:47 |
| SirBlargh | /etc/exports has stuff similar to the following: /home/user/Videos/Movies 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check) | 00:47 |
| Larno | 4,2 TB with no disk redundancy.. | 00:47 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half1, how dangerous? | 00:48 |
| losha | SirBlargh: "nfs: server blargh-server not responding" means exactly that. Your client is not seeing replies from your server. Can you ping the server from the client? | 00:48 |
| Larno | ok | 00:48 |
| SirBlargh | losha, you betcha | 00:48 |
| SirBlargh | the server is fully responding | 00:48 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy, well not exactly but it isn't enabled by default | 00:48 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half1, recovery mode is strictly for that | 00:48 |
| SirBlargh | i'm connected via ssh | 00:48 |
| SirBlargh | and the same directory shares just fine with samba | 00:48 |
| bishop | hey | 00:48 |
| SirBlargh | only NFS is causing issues | 00:48 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half1, on recovery mode it is enabled! | 00:48 |
| Larno | no blades, no SAN, any backup software ? | 00:48 |
| losha | SirBlargh: and what does rpcinfo -p blargh-server say? Can you pastebin the output to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com | 00:48 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy: alright then, so I'll return to the text mode which is sudo init 1. | 00:49 |
| Larno | my favourite answer : not supported | 00:49 |
| LinuX2half1 | mkanyicy, well then I'll be back. | 00:49 |
| eTiger13 | does anyone else have problems with X11 forwarding from a remote server on Karmic? | 00:50 |
| mkanyicy | wheeey! | 00:50 |
| SirBlargh | @losha http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7a0d3911 | 00:50 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, no | 00:50 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, no one has this problem | 00:50 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: you are running 9.10 and can run X11 windows from a remote server? | 00:50 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, yes of course | 00:51 |
| Larno | jaysees | 00:51 |
| townkat | anyone can help with some simple networking bridging and dnsmasq dhcp server pls ? | 00:51 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: did you do a clean install or an upgrade? | 00:51 |
| Larno | ok townkat . | 00:51 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, who is having the problem here, me or you? | 00:51 |
| spO | Jaunty played 1080p movies better than Karmic even though I am still using smplayer+ mplayer and coreavc | 00:51 |
| Larno | BOOTTP ? | 00:51 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, first, are you using ssh? | 00:52 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: i am but i am trying to troubleshoot why. | 00:52 |
| losha | SirBlargh: that looks pretty healthy, all the right things are running. What do the logs on the server say? | 00:52 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: isnt that required? | 00:52 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, how can you troubleshoot a working thing? | 00:52 |
| SirBlargh | @losha, the server seems to be fine, it has the standard "authenticated mount request" messages | 00:52 |
| Larno | lol | 00:53 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, the answers will be a tautology | 00:53 |
| bishop | leaving | 00:53 |
| Alex61639 | can anybody help me with ubuntu instalation? | 00:53 |
| === Caplain_ is now known as Caplain | ||
| Alex61639 | i have a stange error | 00:53 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, ok are you using ssh -X ... or ssh -Y ... ? | 00:53 |
| SirBlargh | occassionally I do see stuff like this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7a0d3911 | 00:53 |
| losha | SirBlargh: and the messages say the mount requests were successful? | 00:53 |
| SirBlargh | ooops | 00:53 |
| SirBlargh | yes | 00:54 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: yes i am using ssh. from a terminal: ssh -X (or -Y, neither work) | 00:54 |
| Larno | me too.. it keeps on saying "go to bed" | 00:54 |
| mclark1129 | When connecting to a Windows printer via WiFi, do I need to open any ports, on either machine? | 00:54 |
| SirBlargh | (disregard that link) | 00:54 |
| iflema | Alex61639: which is? | 00:54 |
| SirBlargh | NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4 state recovery directory | 00:54 |
| SirBlargh | NFSD: starting 90-second grace period | 00:54 |
| SirBlargh | but i think that's when I restart nfs | 00:54 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, both client and server are ubuntu or any linux ? | 00:54 |
| Larno | the dhcp problem was more interesting | 00:54 |
| raygn | have a sftp server that uses a sftp group and chroots the user to their home directory, works great if I leave home permissions 755, but If I change it to 775 the user cannot log in anymore | 00:54 |
| Larno | ye still there ? | 00:54 |
| Larno | raygn.. chmod 755 on a directory | 00:55 |
| === nozes is now known as nozes_esta_no_n | ||
| Larno | FFS | 00:55 |
| SirBlargh | so losha, on my client I just did this: | 00:55 |
| raygn | Larno, yes | 00:55 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: server is SLES 10. client is ubuntu 9.10. i know the server has x11 forwarding setup because i can connect from a windows machine with xming and putty correctly | 00:55 |
| === nozes_esta_no_n is now known as nozes_esta_n2 | ||
| SirBlargh | sudo mount -t nfs blargh-server:/home/scott/Videos/Movies Videos/Movies | 00:55 |
| losha | SirBlargh: yes, and anyway after 90 seconds none of that should matter. Nor should your hardware changes. | 00:55 |
| SirBlargh | this time, it actually did get to the prompt instead of just hanging | 00:55 |
| raygn | Larno, the setup is based off the subsystem setup for sftp users with a chroot home found in the ubuntu forums | 00:56 |
| Larno | (dont do that, that will send all your porn movies to yer family) | 00:56 |
| trevor | do i have to install something to play dvd's.....i have restricted extras installed | 00:56 |
| losha | SirBlargh: that means it worked. What does df -h say? | 00:56 |
| SirBlargh | no, it's not really working, hold on | 00:56 |
| SirBlargh | in the server, I see this: Jan 4 17:55:09 blargh-server mountd[1606]: authenticated mount request from 192.168.1.100:834 for /home/scott/Videos/Movies (/home/scott/Videos/Movies) | 00:56 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, do you have have a pastebin URL for the ssh error message? | 00:56 |
| SirBlargh | so right now you'd THINK it was working :) | 00:56 |
| Larno | bloody hell | 00:56 |
| Larno | come on | 00:56 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: there is none. it just runs the command but returns a cli instead of a desktop window | 00:56 |
| losha | SirBlargh: so what does the client df -h say? Can you ls the directory? | 00:57 |
| SirBlargh | the df -h does report the right file size and the ls does work | 00:57 |
| SirBlargh | however, as soon as I start accessing a file, it hangs | 00:57 |
| Larno | LOL | 00:57 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, I don't understand | 00:57 |
| Larno | screw me dead | 00:57 |
| SirBlargh | and that's when on the client side I start seeing the server not responding messages | 00:57 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, try setting the DISPLAY variable on the server to point to the client | 00:58 |
| SirBlargh | on the server, all nfs processes / rpc stuff is still running along merrily | 00:58 |
| eTiger13 | mkanyicy: i try running xclock and it says Error: Can't open display: | 00:58 |
| LinuX2half | mkanyicy: Yes, I have managed to change my login name but when I went to my home folder the old name still appears | 00:58 |
| Larno | if the xclock is dead, it s just a reminder.. you have to go to bed | 00:59 |
| mkanyicy | LinuX2half, paste the output of the command "id" | 00:59 |
| losha | SirBlargh: ya know, if I had to guess, I'd say you're losing packets in the client->server direction. nfs uses large udp packets. If nothing in between them changed, I'd wonder if the new server nic was intermittent. Got a laptop you can stick on the network to act as a sniffer? | 01:00 |
| mkanyicy | eTiger13, try to do this on the server ssh session 'export DISPLAY="client_address:0.0"' | 01:00 |

| mkanyicy | eTiger13, are swimming or drowning after these floods? | 01:20 |

| mou | IdleOne: this is what i see when i login: http://members.wideband.net.au/syborfical/Xvnc.png | 01:24 |
| mkanyicy | raygn, first why do you change permissions and worst of all ownership? | 01:24 |
| culinor | kian, i guess you need a program which can scan unallocated or deleted ext3/4 partitions | 01:24 |
| Shwack | Ubuntu wont let me change passwords. I go to System > Administration > Users and Groups - I enter in my old password, I make new password... it says password accepted. However, nothing changes. When I go back into users and groups and try to change to a new password, it still takes the old password and not the new one - I have tried serveral times. | 01:24 |

| raygn | mkanyicy, the initial setup created the users home directories with ownership as root.{username} | 01:25 |
| zanberdo | mou, start by explaining what you are doing (in detail, preferably with pastebin) before complaining that no one can help. I highly doubt anyone in this channel can read your mind. | 01:26 |

| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | your mind is in teh gutter | 01:39 |
| kneeskrap3r | mou, we aren't paid support, and you aren't doing anything, let's go, have. you. uninstalled. your. vnc. serv. yet? | 01:39 |
| mkanyicy | mou, who are these guys who ran with your money? microsoft? | 01:39 |

| Cunbuntu | then i start to loosen things up with my tongue | 01:39 |
| zanberdo | is there no op on today? | 01:39 |
| Bondy | mou in this case I suspect user error | 01:39 |
| IdleOne | hvgotcodes: you have to expand the user list on the right of the window | 01:39 |

| haven489 | hey can anyone help me with getting a static IP for ubuntu 9.10 | 01:41 |
| xcv | mou: assuming you paid support, that was with another party, nothing to do with this channel. discussing it here is counter-productive. your business transaction was with another party, contact them directly regarding your paid support incident | 01:41 |
| lucas_ | a onde eu uso o ubuntu br como proceder sou no heheheh | 01:41 |
| mou | vnc wont work | 01:41 |
| zanberdo | your wasting your time on mou. he's clearly simply seeking attention. | 01:41 |
| hvgotcodes | IdleOne, no users list on the right -- i have xchat-gnome.... | 01:41 |
| mou | i get a gray screen | 01:41 |
| IdleOne | lucas_: /join #ubuntu-br | 01:41 |

| Cunbuntu | I can't get Flight Stimulator to work in Wine! | 01:42 |
| Bondy | mou if you have any brains at all a 5 minute google search would enable you to set up a vnc | 01:42 |
| Cunbuntu | that is after installing it | 01:42 |
| zamboli | lspci won't list my CD drive will it? | 01:42 |
| zamboli | what will? | 01:42 |
| Cunbuntu | I click it in my wine program foler | 01:42 |
| Cunbuntu | and then it says it is opening | 01:42 |
| Cunbuntu | after that it disappears | 01:42 |
| mkanyicy | Bondy, you don't want to upset that guy | 01:42 |
| mou | bondy: you are a fucking retard i know how to install the ffucking vnc you piece of shit | 01:42 |
| haven489 | Does anyone know how to set a static IP for ubuntu 9.10? having problems with my IP it wont let me get updates or even connect some times. Does anyone have a solution? | 01:43 |
| mou | but it wont run | 01:43 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | rofl wtf on cnn, they just said that Florida officials are declaring a federal disaster because of the arctic cold in the south | 01:43 |
| lstarnes | mou: that kind of abusive language is not welcome here | 01:43 |
| mou | if the fucking thing will run on wndows just fucking fine and not on ubuntu well gee fucking gee maybe its a fucking problem with ubutnu | 01:43 |
| mkanyicy | zamboli, sudo lshw -c disk | 01:43 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | they are estimating $4.9 billion in orange/sugar losses | 01:43 |
| Bondy | no you are the retard mou because you obviously cant | 01:43 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | how is that a disaster? | 01:43 |
| xcv | that's line with mou, imho. kick. | 01:43 |
| zanberdo | evidently you don't mou. | 01:43 |
| DaZ | BLOATED_SPHINCTA: global warming. | 01:43 |
| mou | xcv: bondy is attacking me | 01:43 |
| lstarnes | mou: it's probably a problem with the program | 01:44 |
| lstarnes | mou: have you tried any other vnc programs? | 01:44 |
| mou | yeah | 01:44 |
| mou | x11 | 01:44 |
| haven489 | mou: if you don't want to get attacked than don't swear so much jeez | 01:44 |
| Cunbuntu | lol @ global warming retards | 01:44 |
| mou | same error | 01:44 |
| theverant | gak, I dunt wanna go back to OS X, but no sound is a serious impediment | 01:44 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | would u like a pony? wowww, thats fine......u didnt say i could have a real pony.......... well you didnt ask | 01:44 |
| lstarnes | mou: what about tightvnc? | 01:44 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | haven489 | 01:44 |
| bishop | joining | 01:44 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | would u like a pony? wowww, thats fine......u didnt say i could have a real pony.......... well you didnt ask | 01:44 |
| zanberdo | haven489, have you tried configuring /etc/network/interfaces directly? | 01:44 |
| mou | lstarnes: yeah that's the initial thing that started with the error | 01:44 |
| xcv | mou: bondy isn't dropping f bombs | 01:44 |
| zamboli | mkanyicy: thank you | 01:44 |
| iflema | Cunbuntu: have ya checked out flight gear.... 4 linux? | 01:44 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: no, i have tried to set it with my gui | 01:44 |
| Cunbuntu | is it similar in function? | 01:45 |
| iflema | full on | 01:45 |
| haven489 | on the top bar -> right click on preferances -> edit connections | 01:45 |
| mou | i cant get it running | 01:45 |
| mou | its annoying | 01:45 |
| zanberdo | haven489, I can help you to set it manually by editing /etc/network/interfaces. I'm afraid I can't help with the gui on koala (I'm still running jaunty) | 01:46 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: on the top bar -> right click on preferances -> edit connections | 01:46 |
| lstarnes | mou: from what I can see in the screenshot posted earlier of tightvnc, you didn't start any X clients in that session | 01:46 |
| lstarnes | mou: such as gnome-session | 01:46 |
| zanberdo | haven489, right, there is an add button | 01:46 |
| iflema | Cunbuntu:n its in ubuntu repos | 01:46 |
| mou | lstarnes: i thought that too and i altered the xstartup file to specifically start gnome-session | 01:46 |
| mou | and it didn't help | 01:46 |
| mou | its like blockied for some reason | 01:46 |
| zanberdo | haven489, and the third tab over is for IPv4 which you can set from automatic to manual | 01:46 |
| lstarnes | mou: it might not read that file | 01:46 |
| mou | why not? | 01:47 |
| lstarnes | mou: what about manually launching it from the terminal? | 01:47 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: yea, i click that and i give it my address my gateway and my subnet mask | 01:47 |
| theverant | ooo updates for gstreamer alsa... mahbe that will help. | 01:47 |
| mou | same probloem | 01:47 |
| mou | no different | 01:47 |
| zanberdo | haven489, you would have to remove the auto eth* (where * is the eth device that was bound during install, probably 0) | 01:47 |
| zamboli | god dammit | 01:47 |
| un|matrix | why is the ~/.ecryptfs folder so damn large? | 01:47 |
| lstarnes | mou: any errors about $DISPLAY? | 01:47 |
| zamboli | i thought i had a DVD burner | 01:47 |
| * zamboli hyperventilates | 01:47 | |
| mou | no errors about #display | 01:47 |
| lstarnes | un|matrix: it contains encryption keys and encrypted data | 01:48 |
| Tiders | Whats so bad about enabling root account in Ubuntu? | 01:48 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: can you go into some detail about that? i rly don't know how to remove... | 01:48 |
| un|matrix | lstarnes: but why does it take more space than my actual data? | 01:48 |
| zanberdo | haven489, but I'm sorry to say that I haven't configured static IP addresses that way. I always just go straight to interfaces. | 01:48 |
| lstarnes | Tiders: it is insecurem unrecommended, and unnecessary | 01:48 |
| ToStItOs | I have a Sony Mp3 player. I have Ubuntu 8.10 but instead of the usb connection being recognized as a Usb Storage it is listing as a photo card | 01:48 |
| Tiders | lstarnes, But most distributions have a root user | 01:48 |
| lstarnes | Tiders: ubuntu doesn't | 01:48 |
| zanberdo | haven489, sure, I believe it's a simple matter to select the device and click 'delete' | 01:48 |
| mou | yeah i cant get it running | 01:48 |
| lstarnes | Tiders: for good reasons | 01:48 |
| Tiders | lstarnes, Like? | 01:48 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | Mou........... would you like a pony?..............haven489, would you like a pony....? Mou sees his real pony trott out, and goes: wowwwww, thats fun........then haven489 greedily says: "You didnt tell me i could have a real one" | 01:49 |
| zanberdo | haven489, but be sure to create the static IP device first. | 01:49 |
| lstarnes | Tiders: security for one | 01:49 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | then i respond with: well haven489, you didnt ask. | 01:49 |
| mou | stupid linux | 01:49 |
| ToStItOs | My question is How can I configure my mp3 player so I can sync my music | 01:49 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: can you get me a website or maybe some material to read? | 01:49 |
| mou | shutthe fuck up BLOATED_SPHINCTA | 01:49 |
| mou | fucking piece of sit | 01:49 |
| zanberdo | won't someone kick mou please? | 01:49 |
| b0w | alguien de aqui es de veracruz??? | 01:49 |

| Tiders | mou, Do you have a few spelling problems? | 01:50 |
| lstarnes | un|matrix: it is padded out so that the data can fit through the block cipher algorithms and there is metadata included | 01:50 |
| theverant | mou needs a zanex | 01:50 |
| mou | IdleOne: i dont get any help! | 01:50 |
| mou | no one knows how to fix this | 01:50 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: i will try to get it working. BRB, booting ubuntu =3 | 01:50 |

| IdleOne | mou: so we should have to put up with your foul mouth and bad attitude? | 01:50 |
| Tiders | mou, Whats happening? | 01:50 |
| mou | xcv: they haven't helped me at all | 01:50 |
| zanberdo | haven489, check this out for how to do it the way I'm used to (simply editing the interfaces file). I will provide a link for gui when I find one: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html | 01:50 |
| Bondy | Tiders nothing just ubuntu is for new Linux users and is "to protect the user" | 01:50 |
| * Dr_Willis uses vnc all the time. | 01:50 | |
| Bondy | ubuntu does have a root user just you dont know the password but you can set one | 01:50 |
| mou | IdleOne: its called ignore | 01:50 |
| haven489 | mou: they have tried | 01:51 |
| theverant | mou - you should demand your money back | 01:51 |
| lstarnes | un|matrix: maybe, but I'm not exactly sure. I rarely use encryption except for individual files | 01:51 |
| IdleOne | mou: it's called follow the rules or go away | 01:51 |
| mou | Tiders: i get a gray window via tightvnc | 01:51 |
| maco | mou: you've been neither cooperative nor respectful | 01:51 |
| Dr_Willis | theverant: hay! thats my line! | 01:51 |
| theverant | mwahaha | 01:51 |
| Tiders | mou, Are you tunneling VNC or straight VNC? | 01:51 |
| mou | IdleOne: its called help or go to hell | 01:51 |
| mou | tiders: straight vnc | 01:51 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: thanks, wil try and get back to you | 01:51 |
| mou | in fact its on a local network | 01:51 |
| zanberdo | I've said it before, mou is pulling your strings. he doesn't need help. he is only seeking attention. | 01:51 |
| Tiders | mou, Does the server run GNOME? | 01:51 |
| ToStItOs | Does anyone know if music syncing is possible in Ubuntu 8.10? | 01:51 |
| IdleOne | mou: honestly I don't care about your issues with linux or with your paid support problems but for the past half hour I have put up with it and it is unfair to the polite users in here who need real help and want it | 01:51 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | Pennywise the Dancing Clown says: "mou.................your VNC is down here in the sewer with me, with cotton candy and all sorts of surprises" | 01:52 |
| Dr_Willis | mou: tightvnc by default runs the 'twm' window manager. unless you edit the .vnc/xstartup to tell it to run somthing else.. and twm by default is NOT installed.. so edit your xstartup and make it run gnome-session or some other window manager.. perhaps | 01:52 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | Pennywise the Dancing Clown says: "mou.................your VNC is down here in the sewer with me, with cotton candy and all sorts of surprises".... | 01:52 |
| mou | zanberdo: you are just too stupid to help | 01:52 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | and they do float | 01:52 |
| * Dr_Willis now ignores mou | 01:52 | |
| adam83 | Dr_Willis I got the mac and ubuntutalking via netatalk and I can see my home directory on the mac, however, the drive I really want to see is my second hard drive. It contains files which have all ben made sharable; however the drive itse;f :sdb, which I labeled "storage" is not showing up | 01:52 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, Thats what I was getting at haha | 01:52 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | Do they float? | 01:52 |
| IdleOne | Pici: please do something about this | 01:52 |

| JDiMatteo | I can't take this -- mou is obviously a troll. Where are the moderators? I'm leaving | 01:52 |
| Tiders | mou, Does your server run GNOME then? | 01:52 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | jdi | 01:52 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | lol | 01:52 |
| maco | mou: do NOT under *any* circumstances call anyone here "stupid." Got it? | 01:52 |
| Dr_Willis | adam83: you can try the sshfs perhaps. or perhaps you need to set up the share difrferently. | 01:52 |

| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | kneeskrap3r, | 01:53 |
| Dr_Willis | mou: time to read teh vnc logs and figure out whats its running. make it run just a xterm, then a window manager. Good Luck. | 01:53 |
| mou | kneeskrap3r: yeah uninstalled it | 01:53 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | kneeskrap3r, .... | 01:53 |

| kneeskrap3r | mou, and... ? | 01:53 |
| mou | Dr_Willis: vnc logs dont log anything | 01:53 |
| Tiders | mou, There is a bug with most versions after 8.10 and it exists in karmic... try typing metacity --replace that may help I have to do that whenever VNCing | 01:53 |
| mou | kneeskrap3r: same issue | 01:53 |
| kneeskrap3r | BLOATED_SPHINCTA, rofl yeah | 01:53 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | i digress on this issue kneescrap3r | 01:53 |
| Tiders | mou, It exists in compiz* | 01:53 |
| BLOATED_SPHINCTA | because i digress on the digress | 01:53 |
| maco | mou: perhaps you should read the channel guidelines. the correct answer to that question most certainly was not "no" | 01:54 |
| kneeskrap3r | mou, have you tried a different server? | 01:54 |
| adam83 | Dr_Willis the tutorial I was going off of said to open the applevolume but I do not know what command to enter to allow for the second harddrive to be shared on the net | 01:54 |
| zanberdo | mou will go away when everyone realizes he's merely here to tweak peoples nerves and ignores him. he distracts from legitimate questions and he's succeeding at what he's setting out to do, which is to draw attention. | 01:54 |

| protojay | !troll | 01:54 |
| mou | !op maco | is being offensive | 01:54 |
| ubottu | trolling / trollish behaviour is behaviour that is considered annoying by other channel users, this includes going offtopic, asking the same question time and again getting answered and not acknowledging the answer, and these are not the only ways behaviour can be considered trolling, please see /msg ubottu guidelines - if this applies to you, you may find yourself outside the channel | 01:54 |
| kneeskrap3r | losha, yeah no kidding | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | adam83: ive no idea how to make os-x share things. :) perhaps ask in #OSX | 01:54 |
| ugliefrog | whats the command to reset the gmome panel from terminal | 01:54 |
| * kneeskrap3r blows up the channel so it can start over from the ashes | 01:54 | |

| ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 01:54 |
| Tiders | mou, metacity --replace will switch the window manager to metacity | 01:54 |
| ToStItOs | Is music syncing possible in Ubuntu 8.10? | 01:54 |

| Shwack | Ubuntu wont let me change passwords. I go to System > Administration > Users and Groups - I enter in my old password, I make new password... it says password accepted. However, nothing changes. When I go back into users and groups and try to change to a new password, it still takes the old password and not the new one - I have tried serveral times. | 01:55 |

| zanberdo | Shwack, have you tried opening a terminal and issuing the command 'passwd' ? | 01:56 |
| maco | Shwack: it may not take effect til you log out... | 01:56 |

| Bondy | Shwack open a terminal and type passwd username replacing username with the username you want to change and then enter the password twice forgot to add you will need to sudo it | 01:56 |

| zanberdo | Shwack, check out the man page for passwd so you can be familiar with the parameters and requirements when using. | 01:57 |
| zanberdo | Shwack, if you are using it to change your own password, you shouldn't need sudo. | 01:58 |
| Shwack | zanberdo: I already followed Bondy's advice | 01:58 |
| Shwack | let me check real quick, one sec | 01:58 |

| tim42 | I've been working on getting eth1394 to work under Janunty 9.04, but still can't seem to get the interface to appear. At the risk of being told "its your problem, now" I recompiled the kernel with all of the firewire modules installed, not added as modules. Anyone willing to help? | 01:59 |
| rachael_ | whenever i log on to skype via wireless network my internet connection dies and i cant get back on unless i reboot my laptop, has anyone had this problem on 9.10? | 01:59 |
| Shwack | if somebody says they can kill me easier than i can kill them - is it a fact or opinion? | 01:59 |
| Dr_Willis | tim42: just unblacklistimg the module and modprobing it dident work eh? odd. | 02:00 |
| theverant | Shwack - depends on whether or not they are right | 02:00 |
| koolmanluke | This might be a weird question, but is the 'blank screen' screensaver good for your displays? | 02:00 |
| Shwack | wouldn't it be a theory until tested? | 02:00 |
| tim42 | Dr_Willis: right. so i went the long way. Let me doublecheck the error i still get | 02:00 |
| kneeskrap3r | koolmanluke, mostly no | 02:00 |
| Dr_Willis | tim42: ages ago that module caused so much problems. adding extra eth# interfaces that no one wanted. | 02:01 |
| Dr_Willis | tim42: ive not even tried it in years. | 02:01 |
| kneeskrap3r | koolmanluke, anything static can burn in and wear out the screen, which is why screensavers move (although I prefer shutting them off) | 02:01 |
| zanberdo | koolmanluke, it takes no resources unlike for instance a 3GL screen saver. | 02:01 |
| tim42 | if I do sudo ifconfig -a | 02:01 |
| theverant | Shwack - it could be an accepted theory | 02:01 |
| zanberdo | kneeskrap3r, doesn't the blank screensaver merely put the monitor to sleep? | 02:01 |

| Dr_Willis | zanberdo: my montitor will blank for a bit.. THEn the powersaveing stuff kicks in and actually powers the monitor off. about 5 min later | 02:02 |
| Dr_Willis | zanberdo: 2 different settings I belive | 02:02 |
| LJR | kneeskrap3r, zanberdo, screen burn-in isn't really much of a problem anymore on most modern monitors. | 02:02 |
| kneeskrap3r | zanberdo, I suppose, on my setup it won't... it takes 30 mins the way I have it configured I think, so for that whole time I am burning in the dark screen | 02:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Im not sure lcd's can even do burn in... | 02:03 |
| kneeskrap3r | LJR, true, I'm just pointing out a possibility mostly... zanberdo he makes a good point, can we know what displays you are running out of curiosity? | 02:03 |
| koolmanluke | kneeskrap3r my friend had the blank screen saver turned on, with no power saving options and I told him that all that time displaying black couldnt be good | 02:03 |
| zanberdo | ah, yes, it is likely to be individual. I use blank myself and power off the monitor if I'm going to be away for a while. | 02:03 |

| LJR | kneeskrap3r, it's a 15.4" TFT widescreen display on a Lenovo Thinkpad r61i. | 02:04 |
| kneeskrap3r | Dr_Willis, they can, much harder to do than a CRT, more importantly I guess and what I forgot is the power issue, you prob won't hurt the screen itself, but a large majority of power supplies are cheap components, I have had more than a couple die on me | 02:04 |
| theverant | LJR - "screen burn-in isn't really much of a problem anymore on most modern monitors." tell that to some of the LCDs at work | 02:05 |
| rachael_ | whenever i log on to skype via wireless network my internet connection dies and i cant get back on unless i reboot my laptop, has anyone had this problem on 9.10? | 02:05 |

| zauk | When I restart my laptop, it doesn't load GRUB; it loads a faulty version of ubuntu instead. Anyone has any ideas? | 02:06 |
| LJR | I've had this computer for about two years and I leave it on day and night with no screen saver or display shutoff. I have yet to have any burn in problems. | 02:07 |
| LJR | zauk, you don't see grub at all? | 02:07 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: ty for help | 02:07 |
| theverant | I forgot about a system that had a Windows install going, and it stayed on for about a week or so | 02:07 |
| zanberdo | haven489, glad to be of assistance. | 02:07 |
| zanberdo | haven489, remember: google is your friend! :) | 02:07 |
| Dr_Willis | LJR: yep - wife's laptop is the same. always on - for her to play solitare on :) | 02:07 |
| zauk | LJR: I see "GRUB loading", and then the ubuntu logo is appears, loading the system | 02:07 |
| theverant | the screen still has a ghost of the dialogue box | 02:07 |
| theverant | :? | 02:07 |

| NiceOne | ChanAdmin: who is pilif12f ? and why he was banned ? | 02:08 |
| zauk | LJR : Can it be due to the fact that I am not shutting down the computer properly? | 02:08 |
| kneeskrap3r | Dr_Willis, lol well that is good, most likely I am too hard on them lol | 02:08 |
| zanberdo | haven489, and of course man. but in this case I'm not sure man would have done you any good. Personally, I tend to do most things from command line, but I'm a command line hacker. | 02:08 |
| LJR | zauk, how're you shutting down the computer? | 02:08 |
| pepperjack | rachael_: can you limit the number of connections in skype? sorry i dont use it but the p2p aspect of skype may be messing you up. | 02:08 |
| kneeskrap3r | LJR, by turning off the monitor xD, no I'm kidding lol | 02:09 |
| rachael_ | pepperjack, not sure | 02:09 |
| rachael_ | i just installed it on this computer | 02:09 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: well im taking a linux + class from COMP tia | 02:09 |
| zauk | LJR: I have a bad ATI driver - it loads, and before I see the login screen, the screen goes black. All I can do it shut it down manually. | 02:09 |
| Dr_Willis | I do tend to actually turn off my lcd's when i will be gone for a while. Just old habbit i guess | 02:09 |
| rachael_ | it occurs after i disconnect from a call | 02:09 |
| zauk | **it loads = ubuntu loads | 02:09 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: Linux is a very interesting thing | 02:09 |
| zanberdo | haven489, good luck with that. Nothing like getting your hands dirty while you are at it! | 02:09 |
| tim42 | Dr_Willis: any suggestions on where to turn for this eth1394 thing? | 02:10 |

| zanberdo | haven489, yes it is! :) You will discover a whole new way to look at computing if you've only worked with windows in the past. | 02:10 |

| zauk | Dr_Willis : Yes. Then ubuntu freezes up and it goes black screen. | 02:10 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: very true for me, started using windows from back in the days of M.E | 02:10 |

| vonadhz | So I have been using Ubuntu for a little bit now and when I first got it, it rarely froze up but sometimes it would freeze. recently My computer has been freezing up all the time, can some one help me | 02:11 |
| Tiders | #4 biggest hate towards Windows... Their slashes are backwards | 02:12 |
| LJR | vonadhz, are you getting any error reports? | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | zauk: You could always boot a live cd, and try to fix the 'bad ati driver' by making a xorg.conf that uses the vesa driver perhaps. | 02:12 |
| vonadhz | It freezes and I cant do nothing | 02:12 |
| zanberdo | haven489, ah, the days of monotasking. :) anyway, good luck and keep digging. get familiar with pastebin.com as well. or better yet, install pastebinit from apt-get (aptitude) | 02:12 |
| vonadhz | No moving cursor no typing | 02:12 |
| vonadhz | nothing responds | 02:12 |
| LJR | vonadhz, what version of Ubuntu are you on? | 02:12 |
| zanberdo | haven489, it will be helpful when you need to provide output to people in chat. | 02:12 |
| zauk | Dr_Willis : My ubuntu live cd is across the room, I really don't want to get out of my chair :'( | 02:12 |
| vonadhz | LJR: 9..10 | 02:12 |
| zauk | Dr_Willis - Jokes aside, will do it right now. :) | 02:12 |
| vonadhz | LJR: where can i check error reports? | 02:13 |
| haven489 | zanberdo: ok ty, signing off =3 | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | zauk: I am once again reminded why i NEVER buy ati any more.. | 02:13 |
| LJR | vonadhz, log file viewer should have a print out | 02:13 |
| zauk | Dr_Willis - I got this thing for free, so I ain't complaining. | 02:13 |
| vonadhz | LJR: how do i go to that | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | zauk: i got several low end nvidia cards for free. :) | 02:13 |
| LJR | System->Administration->Log File Viewer | 02:13 |
| vonadhz | LJR: okay | 02:14 |
| vonadhz | LJR: now what? | 02:14 |
| vonadhz | LJR: I opened it | 02:14 |
| zauk | Dr_Willis - free nvidia cards? :( -jealous- | 02:14 |
| zanberdo | cheers | 02:14 |
| zauk | Dr_Willis - my company only has cheap radeons | 02:14 |
| Dr_Willis | zanberdo: they were like geforce3's :) that friends upgraded their systems and dident need any more. I even took off the fans and put large HS's on them to make them quieter. | 02:14 |

| LJR | vonadhz, keep log file viewer open a minute. Have you installed anything recently? Anything around the time this started? | 02:16 |
| vonadhz | I dont think so | 02:16 |
| vonadhz | LJR: Possibly Wine i really dont know | 02:17 |
| vonadhz | LJR: wat should i look for in log viewer | 02:17 |
| vonadhz | LJR: is there like a system restore | 02:18 |
| DaZ | maybe kernel update? :3 | 02:18 |
| vonadhz | I just wonder what it is | 02:18 |
| vonadhz | DaZ: talking to me? | 02:18 |
| LJR | vonadhz, I've been following up on some rashes of freezing recently on 9.10 and I'm reading through some resources. Do you see anything under debug or syslog? | 02:18 |
| DaZ | vonadhz: yes | 02:19 |
| vonadhz | LJR: I dont know what anything is in here | 02:19 |
| vonadhz | LJR: in the log view | 02:19 |
| LJR | vonadhz, ok - forget that for a moment. Do you have compiz turned on? | 02:19 |
| vonadhz | LJR: yes i think so | 02:20 |
| LJR | Try turning it off. | 02:20 |
| vonadhz | how | 02:20 |
| vonadhz | I have many things under debug | 02:20 |
| mjrosenb | hey, what happened to slim in 9.10? | 02:20 |
| mjrosenb | it seems to have dissappeared without any warnings | 02:20 |
| LJR | Right-click your desktop and select Change Desktop Background and then "Visual Effects". Disable all. | 02:20 |
| soreau | vonadhz: In sys>prefs>appearance>visual effects, set it to None | 02:20 |
| vonadhz | I did | 02:21 |
| LJR | Ok, now try it out for a bit. | 02:21 |
| vonadhz | can u help me with the log viewer | 02:21 |
| LJR | You don't get all the pretty effects, but it should be a lot more stable. Compiz is a real problem for lower-end machines. | 02:21 |
| LJR | vonadhz, If something were wrong in the log viewer you'd see one of the logs in bold and I'd have you pastbin it. | 02:22 |
| vonadhz | You see in windows I was rarely ever getting a blue screen | 02:22 |
| vonadhz | some memory dump blah blah | 02:22 |
| vonadhz | then it kinda stopped | 02:22 |
| LJR | vonadhz, blue screen isn't the same as a freeze. | 02:22 |
| vonadhz | Then I got Ubuntu | 02:22 |
| vonadhz | and my computer was a lot faster | 02:22 |
| vonadhz | I dool booted | 02:22 |
| vonadhz | and My comp rarely froze in Ubuntu, and I started using xp less and less | 02:23 |
| LJR | No offense vonadhz, but Enter != punctuation. | 02:23 |
| vonadhz | So I repartioned , and now im ubuntu exclusive and only in the past 5 days or so it has been freezing alot | 02:23 |
| vonadhz | and I dont know | 02:23 |
| mjrosenb | is there any way of finding out what happened to slim? | 02:24 |
| LJR | Did you ever change your compiz settings? | 02:24 |
| mjrosenb | it was in 9.04, but it is not in 9.10 | 02:24 |
| LJR | Also, welcome to Ubuntu. =D We're glad to have you! | 02:24 |
| vonadhz | I was in here a while ago to find out what was wrong with one of my programs= startupmanager and why it wasnt working and no one could tell me what the error was | 02:24 |
| vonadhz | and someone said i might need to reinstall my GUI | 02:24 |
| vonadhz | so I dont know | 02:24 |
| vonadhz | I really want to use Ubuntu but now its freezing like crazy | 02:25 |
| LJR | vonadhz, do you have anything important on your machine? | 02:25 |
| * Dr_Willis places a hot water bottle on vonadhz 's pc. | 02:25 | |
| * LJR laughs | 02:25 | |
| kneeskrap3r | LJR, I was about to ask that lol, vonadhz: clean install FTW | 02:25 |
| * kneeskrap3r laughs also | 02:26 | |
| LJR | kneeskrap3r, I totally agree. vonadhz - I hate to tell you this, but I'd clean install your machine. | 02:26 |
| vonadhz | EEk | 02:26 |
| vonadhz | well ye i have important stuff | 02:26 |
| kneeskrap3r | lol sorry | 02:26 |
| LJR | How much? Less than 2GB? | 02:26 |
| vonadhz | my home though is on seperate partiotion | 02:26 |
| vonadhz | probably | 02:26 |
| vonadhz | So I should reinstall? | 02:27 |
| LJR | Ok, then open your Ubuntu One client. Login and upload your important items. | 02:27 |
| kneeskrap3r | vonadhz, try... you beat me typing... try creating a separate partition and copy EVERYTHING to it, and format the other partition and fresh OS that sucker | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Ubuntu One is handy for keeping backups of config files also. :) | 02:27 |
| LJR | kneeskrap3r, no deal bud. Just upload it to Ubuntu One. | 02:27 |
| kneeskrap3r | LJR, vonadhz, better idea | 02:27 |
| zauk | Dr_willis : are you still there? | 02:27 |
| LJR | Dr_Willis, Ubuntu One = win for my kernels and configs. =D | 02:27 |

| LJR | vonadhz, applications->internet->ubuntu one | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | LJR: has it finally stabalized? for a long time after 9.10 release it was so flakey - i couldent even use it | 02:28 |
| LJR | kneeskrap3r, it's all good. =D | 02:28 |
| LJR | Dr_Willis, I'm developing on 10.04 now. I'm not on 9.10 so I can't say. | 02:28 |
| kneeskrap3r | Dr_Willis, yeah I only ever tried it twice and it wasn't stable, but I love the theory... if it is working now......... huzzah! | 02:28 |

| LJR | redleaf, no, they're part of the design. I know what they're called - it's erroneous. | 02:32 |
| LJR | vonadhz, anything in bold | 02:32 |
| LJR | pilif12p, I always do | 02:32 |
| pilif12p | I never do | 02:32 |
| vonadhz | LJR: the left panel | 02:32 |
| LJR | vonadhz, anything in bold there? | 02:32 |
| vonadhz | LJR: the left panel with all the categories such as Debug | 02:33 |
| redleaf | LJR, hmm .. then 'red line on GUi popups' .. not sure what you mean | 02:33 |
| LJR | vonadhz, Right, is there anything in bold there? | 02:33 |
| vonadhz | LJR: they all look the same | 02:33 |
| LJR | redleaf, I'll post a pic in a sec bud. =) | 02:33 |
| shro0ms | thank you | 02:33 |
| vonadhz | LJR: I dont think they are all bold | 02:34 |
| sabgenton | whats the best way to set up a 3g wireless modem on ubuntu with no guis | 02:34 |
| sabgenton | create a vdial script? | 02:34 |
| LJR | Guys, i'll brb. vonadhz just close the log file viewer. Use UbuntuOne to backup anything important, then use your livecd to make a clean install, using just the standard settings. | 02:34 |
| LJR | brb | 02:34 |
| sabgenton | or is there some fancey tool i can use from a terminal | 02:34 |
| mjrosenb | does anyone in here use slim? | 02:35 |
| _Ray_ | Argh, sorry, god DC'd. I had asked how I could find out, from command line, what filesystem a block device has. | 02:35 |
| faileas | mjrosenb: yeah | 02:35 |
| kneeskrap3r | afk for about 10 mins all | 02:35 |
| vonadhz | Dr Willis: hey | 02:35 |
| shro0ms | is it still a good idea to have an antivirus prog even through its linux? | 02:35 |
| faileas | mjrosenb: though i use the package for lucid lynx, on a karmic programme ;p | 02:35 |
| ZPertee | does anyone have any good ideas for programs that would allow me to stream tv to all computers on my network? I actually just need the ability to connect rca cable (standard red, yellow, and white) | 02:35 |
| faileas | shro0ms: for a server, maybe, for a desktop, its not really necessary | 02:35 |
| mjrosenb | faileas: yeah, i noticed that it is not in the karmic repos | 02:36 |
| faileas | mjrosenb: i mean i use it the lynx package on a koala system | 02:36 |
| shro0ms | ok thx | 02:36 |
| mjrosenb | faileas: and have been trying to find out why. | 02:36 |
| sabgenton | shro0ms: most people never bother and never get viruses | 02:36 |
| faileas | mjrosenb: er.. it just isn't apparently | 02:36 |
| mazda01 | k3b really freezing while trying to rip audio cd. it freezes at point when I am to select a folder to rip to. i have upgraded machine through several relaeses of ubuntu. im sure a fresh install would solve this but I have so much customization over years. any thoughts | 02:36 |
| sabgenton | but can't hurt | 02:37 |
| faileas | mjrosenb: http://osdir.com/ml/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2009-09/msg00097.html | 02:37 |
| LJR | redleaf, may I send you a link via PM? | 02:37 |
| JAMD456 | I lost a password for a zip archive is there any way to recover it? | 02:37 |
| redleaf | sure | 02:37 |
| yufei | any winops team here, about ca-tool from beijing | 02:37 |
| shro0ms | sabgenton: wat bout spyware and shit? | 02:37 |
| Gateway | hello every... please guys, I have a file that contains 4 fields and I have to make a sort with the second character of the fourth field | 02:38 |
| Gateway | help please | 02:38 |
| yufei | it should be a windows only issue, | 02:38 |
| sabgenton | JAMD456: if it was a dictonary password then you could get a programe to brute force it | 02:38 |
| e-head | Hey, I have a samba question. Is there a way to get samba to simply use unix username/passwords? | 02:38 |
| yufei | I can find user if user request from a MAC machine | 02:38 |
| yufei | so,, it should be a firewall acl issue | 02:38 |
| LJR | redleaf, see what I mean? | 02:38 |
| sabgenton | shro0ms: there is none | 02:38 |
| e-head | I'd prefer not to have to keep a seperate smbuser/pass database. | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | e-head: i recall ages ago a way to sync the user name/passwords with their samba name/passwords.. but its been ages since i last looked into it. | 02:38 |
| shro0ms | sabgenton: sweet | 02:38 |
| sabgenton | mabye stuff that can efect firefox | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | e-head: check the samba-doc package - it has several books on samba ussage | 02:38 |
| e-head | Dr_Willis: thanks | 02:39 |
| LJR | kneeskrap3r, 10.04 is still in Alpha 1, so it's rough around the edges, but nice. | 02:39 |
| pepperjack | Gateway: #bash might be a better channel for that type of question | 02:39 |
| sabgenton | but anything that comes thru fire fox and effects windows won't efect linux | 02:39 |
| Gateway | pepperjack, ok thanks :) | 02:39 |
| shro0ms | kk thanks | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Gateway: sounds like a job for AWK! :) | 02:39 |
| redleaf | LJR, so you mean the red stripe on the popup? thats what i was talking about too - sometimes i get it in blue or yellow. apparently related to urgency .. | 02:39 |
| Gateway | Dr_Willis, AWK ? :) | 02:40 |
| sabgenton | shro0ms: if you want to watch out for something watch out for phishing that efects anyone thats dum enough to fall for it | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Gateway: a programing/scrimting/wonder tool. thats good for all sorts of tasks like that.. | 02:40 |
| LJR | redleaf, Not just the stripe, but the design skeleton for the graphic. Of course, the graphic's dept. will polish all that up before launch. | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Gateway: it even cures baldness | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !info awk | 02:40 |
| ubottu | Package awk does not exist in karmic | 02:41 |

| gmachine_24 | Greeting Earthlings. When I boot my comp one of many profundities that flash across my screen is the one that says to enable acpi I must acpi=force. I believe I must add this to the boot commands but want to check it out before doing so. Anyone? | 02:42 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: you can edit the grub menu lines for a one time test of it.. if you wanted to | 02:42 |
| gmachine_24 | Oh yes, and please forward your bank passwords to me. J/k | 02:42 |
| redleaf | LJR, yup, same. i've found a couple other quirkys i imagine will get cleaned up as well | 02:42 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis, ok, so, that would be which file exactly, Doc? | 02:43 |
| LJR | gmachine_24, /boot/grub/menu.lst | 02:43 |
| gmachine_24 | LJR, thanks. | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: hit 'e' to edit the grub entry and append that 'apci=force' option at the end of the kernel options. proberly right after 'spash quiet .... ' | 02:43 |
| LJR | No worries. Like Dr_Willis said - one change at a time. | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: what release of ubuntu are you using exactly? | 02:44 |
| sabgenton | and it is possable to go to a web site and its actually an evil web site in disguise | 02:44 |
| vonadhz | LJR: hey | 02:44 |
| LJR | vonadhz, what's up bud? =) | 02:44 |
| sabgenton | dns possing | 02:44 |
| vonadhz | LJR: nm, do u know how I can find the problem? | 02:44 |
| gmachine_24 | 8.04 | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | sabgenton: id imagine its possible. | 02:44 |
| vonadhz | LJR: i dont wanna reinstall | 02:44 |
| etzerd | hello all | 02:44 |
| LJR | vonadhz, you said you're having two, essentially violent problems? | 02:45 |
| gmachine_24 | I will update...........someday | 02:45 |
| Eruaran | Hello, is anyone familiar with the cannot update ICEauthority problem after updates ? | 02:45 |
| tim42 | Dr_Willis: heh, I rebooted to the stock kernel, did a modprobe eth1394, and looked at ifconfig -a and dmesg and found that its trying to work, but still no go | 02:45 |
| LJR | !hi | etzerd | 02:45 |
| ubottu | etzerd: 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! | 02:45 |
| faileas | gmachine_24: also, how old is your box? | 02:45 |
| vonadhz | LJR: well mainly its just freezing | 02:45 |
| LJR | gmachine_24, is that Hardy? | 02:45 |
| faileas | the acpi=force generally happens to pre-2000 boxes | 02:45 |
| etzerd | LJR: thanks | 02:45 |
| LJR | vonadhz, Has turning off compiz stopped it? | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: then you are useing grub1 - so the menu.lst or edinging the grub kernel line at boot up for a one time test.. can work | 02:45 |
| vonadhz | LJR: do you think it may have anything having to do with my inverter box breaking? | 02:46 |
| vonadhz | the screen doesnt work | 02:46 |
| LJR | The screen? | 02:46 |
| vonadhz | LJR: yes | 02:46 |
| gmachine_24 | Ok, one more? Before or after this line: initrd/boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-26-generic? | 02:46 |
| gmachine_24 | before? | 02:47 |
| LJR | vonadhz, what's the screen doing now? | 02:47 |
| gmachine_24 | faileas, how old is my box? very. | 02:47 |
| etzerd | how can I change the boot manager to a GUI instead of DOS like looking? | 02:47 |
| vonadhz | LJR: and honestly it started freezing more after that happened but I honesly have no idea if they have any relation cause i have also installed new programs | 02:47 |
| LJR | gmachine_24, not after that line. | 02:47 |
| faileas | gmachine_24: pre 2000? | 02:47 |
| wrekt | hey. i have a sedia server running on ubuntu and when i restarted i cant find the open incident of the program while it seems to stil be broadcasting. how can i track it down and terminate it? | 02:47 |
| === b0w is now known as zz_b0w | ||
| vonadhz | LJR: my screen does not work, I use a monitor for my laptop | 02:47 |
| gmachine_24 | faileas, ..........uhmmmmmmmmm...........maybe. This is about the 6th incarnation of Linux I've run on it. | 02:47 |
| vonadhz | LJRL: what is ubuntu one? | 02:47 |
| soreau | wrekt: ps | 02:47 |
| gmachine_24 | brb | 02:48 |
| redleaf | gmachine_24, i've got an 8.04 box as well .. waiting for lucid, should be a direct upgrade to LTS | 02:48 |
| soreau | wrekt: ps ax|grep <program> | 02:48 |
| LJR | vonadhz, it's an online application for you to upload important stuff during upgrades, etc. | 02:48 |
| faileas | gmachine_24: that explains it. most linux varients don't run acpi by default for systems whose bios are dated before 2000 | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: thers a kernel=somthing options here quiet splash (i think) | 02:48 |
| gmachine_24 | redleaf, I did one upgrade with Ubuntu. Never again. | 02:48 |
| LJR | gmachine_24, this line = kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root | 02:48 |
| wrekt | soreau, it will terminate the program? | 02:48 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis, yes, absolutely. That kernel line is the one just before the initrd | 02:48 |
| soreau | wrekt: No, it will show you currently running processes | 02:48 |
| gmachine_24 | line | 02:48 |
| midnightleutenan | Is there a default place xserver shortcuts can be bound? | 02:48 |
| LJR | gmachine_24, we've streamlined the update process, it's much less painless. | 02:48 |
| redleaf | lol gmachine_24 | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24 tats the options you need to add to. | 02:49 |
| ijesse | my buddy lost his main menubar panel.. how can he get it back? | 02:49 |
| soreau | wrekt: To kill it, you look at the PID (Process ID) then use 'kill $PID' or, just 'killall <program>' | 02:49 |
| cher | hi, i am trying to encode one of my CDs to MP3 with Banshee but i do not have the option to encode to this format. i have good, bad base and ugly gstreamerplugins installed and liblame. | 02:49 |
| midnightleutenan | Is there a default place xserver shortcuts can be bound? | 02:49 |
| cher | any ideas? | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: You could also make it 'noquiet nosplash apci=force (or whatever its supposed to be) that way you can see a more verbose text messages at boot up | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | midnightleutenan: what do you mean xserver shortcits? | 02:50 |
| tawd | looking for help writing what should be a simple shell script. i saw my friend on windows 7 have something called libraries, which searched the computer for music and pictures and linked them to that folder i'm trying to do the same. this is what i have so far http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m2f551368 | 02:50 |

| LJR | ijesse, you can access the terminal with ALT+F2 | 02:50 |
| midnightleutenan | Dr_Willis, I had <ctrl>+t bound to terminal sessions and now it's broken. I'm looking for a robust way to bind those keys to a session. | 02:50 |
| midnightleutenan | Dr_Willis, I think kde & gnome are a bit screwy on this distro. | 02:51 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis that's ok we'll see how it goes. Thanks. Does my computer really have all these versions of the kernel still? | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | midnightleutenan: i just use gnome-do - i do win-space then 'te' and it launches the terminal for me. :) | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | midnightleutenan: of cours ei always have a few terms open :) | 02:51 |
| gmachine_24 | LIke,..........three of them. | 02:51 |

| LJR | faint2000, gutsy is past it's service end date. Please realise help will be limited. | 02:54 |
| faint2000 | yes , but i cant upgrade it to new version | 02:54 |
| LJR | faint2000, why not? | 02:54 |
| faint2000 | coz it is in productive server | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Thats a scary thought. | 02:55 |
| LJR | =D | 02:55 |
| faint2000 | :( | 02:55 |
| ardchoille | Dr_Willis: hehe | 02:55 |

| osmosis | redleaf, i mostly want the tuneup plugin to find the names for all my untitled songs and fix all the ID3 info based on the thumbprint. | 03:05 |

| afroeEngineer | has anyone been able to get free spin for a Logitech MX revolution working with ubuntu 9.10? | 03:07 |
| gmachine_24 | Greeting Earthlings. Ok, so, I added the acpi=force line on the line after the kernel xxx line in the grub boot menu and got the same message after rebooting. The date of the last BIOS flash ... or the BIOS date is 11/14/2000 ... but the error message says the computer cannot read that. Anyway, searched around and found that I should add acpi=force on the same line as kernelXXX in the boot... | 03:08 |
| gmachine_24 | ...menu - did that but still got the same results. Ahh well. Want to thank everyone for your time. | 03:08 |
| ardchoille | wrekt: What you tried to kill was the grep command, look at that paste again | 03:08 |
| === afroeEngineer is now known as afroEngineer | ||
| ardchoille | wrekt: The reason nothing was killed was because the grep command had completed by the time you got a pid | 03:09 |
| gmachine_24 | osmosis, ... or anyone else... has anyone tried the Subsonic music jukebox player thing? | 03:09 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: is the machine actually working right? or is there some actual problem with it? if its working right.. i say leave it alone | 03:09 |
| wrekt | ardchoille, there doesnt seem to be any other pid what can i do to kill the program | 03:10 |
| wrekt | basically it broadcasting my whole computer to the world atm | 03:10 |
| ardchoille | wrekt: What program is it? psm? | 03:10 |
| wrekt | yea | 03:10 |
| ardchoille | wrekt: try: pidof psm | 03:11 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis: Ok, that was weird. I typed out this entire answer and hit enter and got a message that said "don't just type anything here." | 03:11 |
| gmachine_24 | Seemed like one of my parents was watching. | 03:12 |
| gmachine_24 | Ok, so, anyway, yeah it pretty much works fine. Just seen that message for a long time now. | 03:12 |
| gmachine_24 | and I am not connected, am I? | 03:12 |
| gmachine_24 | Am I here or not? | 03:13 |
| westmi_ | yes | 03:13 |
| iceguru | Hello | 03:13 |
| redleaf | osmosis, i never got it to work for me, heard same from others .. surely somebody it worked for i guess .. | 03:13 |
| gmachine_24 | thank you | 03:13 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis: Ok, that was weird. I typed out this entire answer and hit enter and got a message that said "don't just type anything here." | 03:13 |
| iceguru | I just installed ubuntu today | 03:13 |
| westmi_ | first time? | 03:13 |
| iceguru | yep | 03:13 |
| iceguru | First time on any linux machine | 03:14 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis: so yeah the comp pretty much works fine. It's just that I've been running Linux on this comp for awhile and I've seen that message a thousand times. | 03:14 |

| the8thbit | I am having an issue with my desktop environment | 03:14 |
| LJR | the8thbit, what's up? | 03:14 |
| gmachine_24 | Lately I have been going back to the command line. Much easier and cleaner. | 03:14 |

| wrekt | man im having real troubnle with these mediaservers. first medaitomb, i cant get it to stop sharing and now psm | 03:15 |
| afroEngineer | anyone use a Logitech MX revolution mouse with ubuntu? | 03:15 |
| the8thbit | Well, I installed a minimal install of debian (basically identical to ubuntu minimal) without a DE | 03:15 |
| iceguru | i have a question? ...when I have my music open and scool down a firefow page the music lags o.0 | 03:15 |
| gmachine_24 | D | 03:15 |
| the8thbit | And I'm trying to get matchbox to work... | 03:15 |
| gmachine_24 | D) | 03:15 |
| gmachine_24 | er | 03:15 |
| nimaim | iceguru welcome to the real world of computing :) ... heres a tip starting out, use terminal to do stuff instead of the gui's in there, you'll realize the real power of linux | 03:15 |
| gmachine_24 | :) | 03:15 |
| the8thbit | But all I can get is this tiny little window | 03:15 |
| LJR | the8thbit, I've used Debian before. You need to go to #Debian | 03:15 |
| gmachine_24 | iceguru, firefox? | 03:15 |
| jack_ | 03:16 | |
| the8thbit | LJR: I did, but they weren't very helpful | 03:16 |
| iceguru | Yea | 03:16 |
| iceguru | lol | 03:16 |
| gmachine_24 | that doesn't look good | 03:16 |
| the8thbit | But like I said, it's essentially identical to Ubuntu | 03:16 |
| Phen | anyone able to help me with some wifi issues? | 03:16 |
| the8thbit | It might as well be Ubuntu | 03:16 |
| ardchoille | the8thbit: no, it isn't | 03:16 |
| gmachine_24 | what means this: Mode #ubuntu +e phen!i=ad5084ba@gateway/web/freenode/x-lfbqlvflmaegwcwl by FloodBot4 | 03:16 |
| LJR | the8thbit, that's why I develop here now. Debian users tend to be a bit stick up. =P | 03:16 |
| gmachine_24 | LJR, a bit? | 03:16 |
| LJR | the8thbit, it's not essentially identical, but we'll let that slide. Anyway - what's up? | 03:17 |
| Flare-Laptop | gmachine_24: That's the floodbot setting a ban exempt | 03:17 |
| the8thbit | ardchoille: The minimal installs, as far as I know, are. The only difference is the community and the way the releases work | 03:17 |
| the8thbit | So, I'm trying to get matchbox to work but | 03:17 |
| the8thbit | here | 03:17 |
| gmachine_24 | Flare-Laptop, ok. | 03:17 |
| the8thbit | let me take a screenshot | 03:17 |
| ardchoille | the8thbit: We cannot support debian here | 03:17 |
| the8thbit | ardchoille: Ok, then I'm running Ubuntu. Whatever | 03:17 |
| iceguru | Anyone able to tell me why the music lags? | 03:17 |
| LJR | ardchoille, I'll try to help him. I used to run Debian. | 03:17 |
| gmachine_24 | I just d/l the complete 32 and 64-bit DVD versions of the latest Debian. | 03:17 |
| arghh2d2 | I dont want to install vlc or rhythmbox just to enjoy goom... what is the lightest music player that runs goom, do i need to build a custom package to get it to run goom plugins | 03:17 |
| gmachine_24 | I like Debian. | 03:18 |
| ardchoille | LJR: Then it needs to go to pm or another channel | 03:18 |
| gmachine_24 | But I like Ubuntu also and people don't yell at me here. | 03:18 |
| the8thbit | hang on, I have to restart the VM | 03:18 |
| gmachine_24 | ok, I'll ask: what is "goom" | 03:18 |
| arghh2d2 | gmachine_24: that just cuz they'd get kicked if they yelled at you | 03:18 |
| arghh2d2 | j/k | 03:18 |
| * Flare-Laptop laughs | 03:19 | |
| gmachine_24 | ha | 03:19 |
| wrekt | can somebody help me prevent mediatomb and playstationmediaserver from broadcasting automatically when i start my computer? | 03:19 |
| arghh2d2 | gmachine_24: goom is a music visualizer, kinda like a screensaver | 03:19 |
| gmachine_24 | oh, ok. thanks | 03:19 |

| LJR | gmachine_24, you're ok. | 03:20 |
| LJR | We didn't kick you. Yet | 03:20 |
| arghh2d2 | i'm here to help but some people are beyond helping, they want you to reach through the monitor, grab the mouse and click all the magic checkboxes for em | 03:21 |
| afroEngineer | you can do that?! | 03:21 |
| the8thbit | LJR: Ok, basically, I get this when I run matchbox-desktop: http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/2162/screenshot17y.png | 03:21 |
| LJR | arghh2d2, thank god someone else feels that way | 03:21 |

| the8thbit | LJR: But I want it to full the entire screen... like a normal desktop | 03:21 |
| LJR | the8thbit, did you hit F11? | 03:21 |
| Phen | has anyone else experienced issues with wi fi in ubuntu 9.10 | 03:21 |
| gmachine_24 | I have two windows open apparently and get switched back and forth. Every time I type something into the other window it says: [ERROR]Please do not just type into this tab, use an actual command instead. | 03:21 |
| Flare-Laptop | Phen: Card? | 03:21 |
| ardchoille | the8thbit , LJR ; that needs to go to pm or another channel, we don't support debian here | 03:22 |
| LJR | Phen, please post your issue with as much detail as possible. | 03:22 |
| gmachine_24 | and I feel badly | 03:22 |
| Flare-Laptop | gmachine_24: Yeah that's because the other tab is for server notices | 03:22 |
| LJR | ardchoille, And we're not discussing debian - we're discussing a possible synaptic or dependancy issue which is covered here. | 03:22 |
| gmachine_24 | ahh. | 03:22 |
| gmachine_24 | ty. | 03:22 |
| etzerd | LJR: help me here. everytime I tried to install adobe flashplayer at he consol I type "sudo apt-get adobe-flashplugin" it display an error that it cannot be found. | 03:23 |
| etzerd | how can that be? | 03:23 |
| the8thbit | LJR: F11 does nothing. Also, thanks in advance | 03:23 |
| LJR | etzerd, aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree | 03:23 |
| gmachine_24 | I thought it was because they thought I was trying to hack into the IRS - I typed /attach irs.freenode.net by mistake on my first try tonight | 03:23 |

| Phen | im not exactly sure what the card is but i'm completely unable to find any wireless networks (im on one on my mac now) . ive tried installing the drivers etc. but its asking me for the cd even though I"ve got the cd inserted. not sure whats going on | 03:23 |
| jiohdi | ljr do apt-cache search flash you will see the actual package name | 03:23 |
| LJR | Phen, run lspci from terminal | 03:24 |
| LJR | Pastebin the results | 03:24 |
| genii | etzerd: Between the "apt-get" and the packagename you need the thing you want to do, like install remove or so on | 03:24 |
| gmachine_24 | yes, pastebin, please. | 03:24 |

| Ilmatic | I'm having a problem adjusting my screen resolution | 03:29 |
| gmachine_24 | westmi_, first, on that top line, left click on "system" and then tell us what desktop you are using. It will say "about gnome" or whatever | 03:29 |
| Ilmatic | right now it's rested at 600 something | 03:29 |
| Phen | ok since the problem is on my Ubuntu box which isnt connected to the web atm due to the problem at hand it would be difficult for me to paste the results however my NW controller is a Broadcom BCM4318 (airforce one 54g) 802.11g if that is helpful | 03:29 |
| LJR | Ilmatic, system->preferences->display | 03:29 |
| Ilmatic | yes | 03:29 |
| Ilmatic | i've tried that | 03:29 |
| Ilmatic | the only options i get are to make it 300 or 600 | 03:30 |
| LJR | Ilmatic, what kind of card? | 03:30 |
| Ilmatic | does ubuntu support bigger resolutions? | 03:30 |
| Ilmatic | err..nvidia | 03:30 |
| LJR | Ilmatic, I'm currently using 1280x800 out-of-the-box. | 03:30 |
| Ilmatic | ? | 03:30 |
| gmachine_24 | yes | 03:30 |
| ardchoille | !nvidia | Ilmatic | 03:31 |
| ubottu | Ilmatic: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 03:31 |
| gmachine_24 | it does | 03:31 |
| deserteagle | hello all! how do i go about installing the nvidia-glx-legacy package without getting the xserver-xorg-video-1.0 error? | 03:31 |
| gmachine_24 | this is why I never upgrade | 03:31 |
| Ilmatic | i just don't understand why the ubuntu resolution is so jacked up on my computer | 03:32 |
| gmachine_24 | hello? | 03:32 |
| Ilmatic | xp resolution is fine | 03:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: video driver/monitor/settings.... | 03:33 |
| gmachine_24 | did you check the xorg file | 03:33 |
| Dr_Willis | There often is no xorg.conf in 9.10 :) | 03:33 |
| pepperjack | yeah automagic is great until it doesnt work properly | 03:33 |
| Dr_Willis | To get proper res on some of my machines i have to isntall teh proper nvidia drivers. | 03:33 |
| Ilmatic | I haven't actually | 03:34 |
| gmachine_24 | Ahhh. Yet again I say: this is why I never upgrade | 03:34 |
| Ilmatic | how do I access the xorg file? | 03:34 |
| gmachine_24 | apparently you can't | 03:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: and your video card is a ?? and you installed what drivers for it? (if any) | 03:34 |
| Ilmatic | oh.. | 03:34 |
| Alan502 | Hi :) my skype stopped working so i marked it for "complete removal" on synaptic, to delete configuration files and reinstall it again. I applied the changes but now i cannot find it on synaptic, how can i get it back? | 03:34 |
| gmachine_24 | this was news to me | 03:34 |
| Ilmatic | it's nvidia based | 03:34 |
| Ilmatic | i wouldn't know where to start to give you specifics | 03:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: and you have installed the nvidia drivers yet for it? | 03:34 |
| Dr_Willis | system -> admin -> hardware drivers | 03:35 |
| Ilmatic | I have actually | 03:35 |
| Ilmatic | but yet | 03:35 |
| Alan502 | My problem seems like a common error :S | 03:35 |
| Ilmatic | the resolutions on there don't go above 800 | 03:35 |
| gmachine_24 | Alan502, I thihnk you need to d/l skype from their Web site and install from there | 03:35 |
| Eruaran | !ICEauthority | 03:35 |
| Ilmatic | it's really frustrating | 03:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: then run the nvidia-settings tool and tweak it perhaps. | 03:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: the normal display tool may not work with some nvidia drivers./cards | 03:35 |
| gmachine_24 | Alan502, did you "search" for it? | 03:35 |
| gmachine_24 | under synaptic that is | 03:35 |
| Alan502 | gmachine_24, but i had installed it previously from synaptic, i think marking it for complete removal removed it from the list | 03:35 |
| gmachine_24 | or you could try the command line - sudo apt-get install skype | 03:36 |
| Alan502 | gmachine_24, i ran aptitude update but i still can't find it | 03:36 |
| Ilmatic | Dr willis, what do you suggest I do then? | 03:36 |
| gmachine_24 | that's easy | 03:36 |
| Phen | another question i have is in regards to S video output. anyone know how to configure it? | 03:36 |
| Alan502 | gmachine_24, i did, but it says it was not found | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: run the nvidia-setings tool (as root) and change the res with that tool | 03:36 |
| wasutton3 | is there a way that i can create a web page on my apache server to automatically foreward to my router's ip address? | 03:36 |
| gmachine_24 | well, there you go. | 03:36 |
| pepperjack | Alan502: skype isnt in the repos. I suppose they might have their own repository but id just http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/ | 03:36 |
| gmachine_24 | D/L it from Skype. There is a deb package I am sure. | 03:36 |
| trevor | if i have gnome and kde both installed, is there a way to use the gnome network manager applet rather than knetwork manager like fedora does?> | 03:36 |
| trevor | in kde of course | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | I do belive the medibuntu repos have skype. | 03:36 |
| deserteagle | i can't install a legacy nvidia driver because of "xserver-xorg-video-1.0" any suggestions? | 03:37 |

| gmachine_24 | Alan502, have you done deb package installs? | 03:37 |
| Dr_Willis | !gksudo | Ilmatic | 03:37 |
| ubottu | Ilmatic: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 03:37 |
| deserteagle | Ilmatic, sudo <command you want to run as root> | 03:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: gksudo commandtorun | 03:37 |
| Ilmatic | Oh okay. | 03:37 |
| Alan502 | gmachine_24, i'm not suere how did i install it the first time, but know i think i DID download it from their webpage | 03:38 |
| tzufli | can somebody help me install a tar.gz file....i've been reading and trying out different ways from the forums for like 3 hours now | 03:38 |

| gmachine_24 | tzufli, yikes. | 03:38 |
| faileas | tzufli: you need to extract the tarball, and read the readme in it | 03:38 |
| Dr_Willis | tzufli: totally depends on what is in the tar archive | 03:38 |
| Alan502 | gmachine_24, the thing is that firefox is not oppening the page were the ubuntu deb package apparently is :S i might try with konqueror.. | 03:38 |
| faileas | tzufli: tar -xf /path/to/tar would be the first step | 03:39 |
| trevor | anyone? | 03:39 |

| faileas | LJR: honestly? i find it REALLY hard. i barely got the hang of config files. i hate being dyslexic ;p | 03:42 |
| deserteagle | pepperjack, it's brought by the package i'm trying to install, but it won't since it conflicts with my xserver-xorg-core package | 03:43 |

| Ilmatic | Hey uhh..how do I get rid of this pink box on my screen that says "unknown"? | 03:44 |
| gmachine_24 | right click on #ubuntu and choose "switch text direction" | 03:44 |
| deserteagle | pepperjack, yeah, why? | 03:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: im not sure anyone knows what you are talking about. | 03:44 |
| LJR | faileas, it means the cornea of my eye is deformed in such a way to make me see 20 images in one. | 03:44 |
| gmachine_24 | a pink box? | 03:44 |
| faileas | erf | 03:44 |
| faileas | that sucks | 03:44 |
| LJR | That kind of thing | 03:44 |
| gmachine_24 | How can I get a pink box on my screen? | 03:45 |
| LJR | wiki it | 03:45 |
| etzerd | genii: I type "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" I still the the letter "f" display everywhere that the flashplayer is require. in order to see the image I have to click on the letter "f" to see the graphics image or video. | 03:45 |
| gmachine_24 | I want one!!! | 03:45 |
| faileas | LJR: python is a better first language IMO | 03:45 |
| Ilmatic | Lol. Yeah. | 03:45 |
| Ilmatic | It came up when I tried to change the s. resolution and has been there ever since | 03:45 |
| deserteagle | etzerd, that's a plugin inside firefox | 03:45 |
| LJR | faileas, then I'll look into that. | 03:45 |
| gmachine_24 | oh. that doesn't sound good. | 03:45 |
| pepperjack | deserteagle: seems like the kind of thing that would be fixed. so a sudo apt-get upgrade or whatever wouldnt find anything to update? | 03:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: after tweaking the xorg.conf - you will want to restart the X server. | 03:45 |
| gmachine_24 | All of a sudden, I feel like an Ent. | 03:45 |
| deserteagle | etzerd, it's the flashblock add-on | 03:45 |
| jolaren | Can anyone give me pointers to a good tv-card reader that works in ubuntu? I'd like it to be external | 03:46 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis, I thought you said there was no xorg.conf file. | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | deserteagle: i was thinking that also. :) | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: i did not say that. | 03:46 |
| gmachine_24 | did too | 03:46 |
| Ilmatic | Someone did. | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: I said SOME machinds do not have one. | 03:46 |
| pepperjack | jolaren: the hauppauge cards are well supported typically. you might ask in #mythtv-users | 03:46 |
| chu | The menu bar in a number of my applications has gone MIA. I have no idea where to even begin, I tried removing the application and reinstalling it, I tried updating and nothing. That was for one application (monodevelop) but the problem persists across any program that offers GUI editing.... | 03:46 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis, tsk tsk | 03:46 |
| deserteagle | pepperjack, i actually need the nvidia-glx-legacy driver, instead of a newer one | 03:46 |
| Ilmatic | I asked earlier and someone said 9.10 didn't have it. | 03:46 |
| LJR | etzerd, aptitude install update | 03:46 |
| gmachine_24 | ;) | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: i in fact DO have xorg.conf on every one of my nvidia machines. | 03:46 |
| genoobie | okay | 03:46 |
| etzerd | ok let me try | 03:46 |
| genoobie | grub 2 messed up my bootloader | 03:46 |
| Benno | whats the default script file for terminal? | 03:46 |
| Benno | .bash_rc? | 03:46 |
| genoobie | how can I recover my boots? | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: they can work with out it also.. but if i want to set up dual monitors or the tv out. one gets generated by the nvidia-settings tool | 03:46 |
| Suzanne | Hi Hal | 03:47 |
| Alan502 | Does anyone know an alternative client for skype? | 03:47 |
| genoobie | or what do I have to edit to make it work again | 03:47 |
| Alan502 | not an alternative network, an alternative client | 03:47 |
| Alan502 | !skype | 03:47 |
| ubottu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 03:47 |
| genoobie | is there a config for grub 2 | 03:47 |
| jolaren | pepperjack; Thank you | 03:47 |
| genoobie | tips/tricks? | 03:47 |
| Ilmatic | dr willis, are you a ubuntu guru? Just curious : ) | 03:47 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub2 | genoobie | 03:47 |
| ubottu | genoobie: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 03:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: ive been using Ubuntu since like warty warthog days | 03:47 |
| genoobie | how do I get rid of it and install another bootloader | 03:47 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub1 | genoobie | 03:48 |
| hexed | anyone have any experience installing and configuring gateway6? i have it installed and config'd but when i run it, it just quits and for some reason i cant get a log file to check... | 03:48 |
| Dr_Willis | genoobie: install the legacy grub if you want to.. but i dont suggest it. | 03:48 |
| genoobie | I'm getting rid of ubuntu | 03:48 |
| LJR | Dr_Willis - I've been here since Hardy Heron | 03:48 |
| genoobie | I'm going to try chakra | 03:48 |
| Dr_Willis | genoobie: then install whatever bootloader the os you want to run uses. | 03:48 |
| Benno | Hardy Har | 03:48 |
| deserteagle | genoobie, then just install windows like normal | 03:48 |
| * Dr_Willis has no idea what chakra is | 03:49 | |
| Ilmatic | seriously?? ubuntu is such a good os though.. | 03:49 |
| joshua___ | I see a bunch of updates including some to xserver so I think it would be a good idea to install them from single user. | 03:49 |
| genoobie | Dr_Willis, a distro based on arch | 03:49 |
| genoobie | + LXDE | 03:49 |
| deserteagle | gl, hf | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis | genoobie: Id hope its installer/docs install a proper bootloader then. Good luck | 03:49 |
| joshua___ | Well init 1 brought it down to single user just fine, but init 5 didn't start kdm | 03:49 |
| LJR | genoobie, does it have a live, install cd? | 03:49 |
| genoobie | LJR, yes | 03:49 |
| joshua___ | so I issue "start kdm" from a root prompt | 03:49 |
| genoobie | ubuntu just proved to be too slow (I have some seriously old hardware) | 03:50 |
| Dr_Willis | If using anything 'ARCH' related.. the answer will be to go read the ARCH docs. :) | 03:50 |
| LJR | genoobie, then you'll be fine. | 03:50 |
| deserteagle | so... does anyone know how I can go about installing a legacy nvidia driver without getting xserver-xorg issues? | 03:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Or so i found out in #archlinux one day. | 03:50 |
| iflema | genoobie: xubuntu | 03:50 |
| Xfact | i am just about to try karmic, well, my processor is 64 bit compatible, so which version is batter, 32 bit or 64 bit? | 03:50 |
| genoobie | LJR it will install it's own bootloader | 03:50 |
| joshua___ | well that started kdm all right but some dependency wasn't started so keyboard didn't work (not even Ctrl+Alt+F1 or Ctrl+Alt+Bksp) so here we go power button | 03:50 |
| genoobie | iflema, I tried xubuntu, it was also too slow | 03:50 |
| LJR | Dr_Willis, Arch is totally different from Ubuntu, so always refer them to that resource. | 03:50 |
| Ilmatic | whattt...that's crazyy | 03:50 |
| iflema | puppy | 03:50 |
| Dr_Willis | joshua___: alt-ctrl-backspace is disabled now in most X setups. | 03:50 |
| LJR | We really can't do much to help here. We're based on Debian. Arch is based on Arch. | 03:51 |
| genoobie | puppy rocks! | 03:51 |
| deserteagle | genoobie, if you want a fast, lightweight OS, try crunchbang | 03:51 |
| Ilmatic | ubuntu is very responsive and I only have 196 mb of ram | 03:51 |
| Ilmatic | : ) | 03:51 |
| spO | how come smplayer + mplayer + coreavc played 1080p videos better in jaunty rather than karmic? | 03:51 |
| joshua___ | Xfact: 64 bit is better if over 4GB | 03:51 |
| webbb82 | ok i need some help, everytime i add a ppa and then do apt-get update i t will saysW: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/file-browser-applet-dev/ppa/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found | 03:51 |
| DaZ | Xfact: if you don't have more than 4gigs of ram it doesn't matter actually | 03:51 |
| LJR | Damn Small Linux is good for older machines. | 03:51 |
| genoobie | puppy is the shizzle | 03:51 |
| joshua___ | Dr_Willis: Ctrl+Alt+F1 didn't work either | 03:51 |
| webbb82 | every ppa i add does this | 03:51 |
| Dr_Willis | spO: video driver issues perhaps. | 03:51 |
| genoobie | it's superfast on my machine | 03:51 |
| Dr_Willis | joshua___: those should of worjked. | 03:51 |
| genoobie | the only reason I don't like it is their pkgman | 03:51 |
| genoobie | it's .pet or .pup files | 03:51 |
| Ilmatic | get a mac!! | 03:52 |
| Ilmatic | lol | 03:52 |
| Ilmatic | i love my mac | 03:52 |
| genoobie | haha | 03:52 |
| LJR | I really like Portage. I wish we had that here... | 03:52 |
| joshua___ | Dr_Willis: I've seen this before when starting X streight from the recovery prompt | 03:52 |
| genoobie | LJR synaptic seemed fine to me | 03:52 |
| DaZ | genoobie: chakra is more into kde than lxde imo [; | 03:52 |
| Xfact | DaZ & Joshua_: I only have 1 GB of ram, so 32 bit is recommended? | 03:52 |
| Benno | So? | 03:52 |
| Dr_Willis | joshua___: cant say that ive ever seen that issue. so cant realluy help. | 03:52 |
| Hydrosis | Xfact, yes. | 03:52 |
| Benno | where can I put my logon script on ubuntu? | 03:52 |
| genoobie | but it's searches were wrong a alot | 03:52 |
| DaZ | Xfact: it's not recommended but it doesn't make much difference | 03:52 |
| LJR | genoobie, it's just as powerful and versatile, but portage has that sexy factor | 03:52 |
| Benno | the terminal one | 03:52 |
| Xfact | ok thanks everyone for suggestion.... | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Xfact: 64bit can inprove some preformance in math intensive tasks.. but i doubt if you will notice that much of a gain. | 03:53 |
| genoobie | DaZ, yeah it probably won't run nicely on the old lappy | 03:53 |
| Ilmatic | why would his ram amount matter for his bit of choice? | 03:53 |
| DaZ | Xfact: 64bit os tends to be a little faster and needs a little more ram | 03:53 |
| genoobie | puppy's pacman can't handle deps that well etc etc | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: more then 4gb = use 64bit | 03:53 |
| genoobie | okay nite | 03:53 |
| genoobie | I have to get an install going and do some work | 03:53 |
| LJR | Xfact, that doesn't really matter. Your arch type depends on your processor. | 03:53 |
| Ilmatic | oh.. | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: with just 1 gb.. its not really going to matter much | 03:53 |
| frankely | any ssh program that allows me connect it to an ipod touch? | 03:53 |
| Xfact | DaZ: but i doesn't supports all kind of programs.... | 03:54 |
| Dr_Willis | ipod has a ssh server? | 03:54 |
| DaZ | Xfact: supports most of them | 03:54 |
| frankely | yes | 03:54 |
| joshua___ | he must have rooted it | 03:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Xfact: i have very few issues with 64bit on my machines. | 03:54 |
| webbb82 | everytime i add a ppa i get a error failed to fetch 404 not found | 03:54 |
| DaZ | Xfact: and if something doesn't work because of 64bits it usually means downloading 32bit dependencies [; | 03:54 |
| frankely | i used winscp when in windows | 03:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Xfact: i can only think of one program that dosetn come in 64bit.. and thats 'zsnes' :) | 03:55 |
| frankely | but in linux is something graphical that allows me join into ssh server right? | 03:55 |
| Wally | Anyone care to tell me where I can put my bash script on ubuntu terminal so it runs when I Open it? | 03:55 |
| iflema | lol | 03:55 |
| Ilmatic | what the heckkk | 03:55 |
| Ilmatic | this is so frustrating | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | frankely: if it has a ssh server.. then you can use any ssh client to connect. | 03:55 |
| frankely | yes i mean | 03:55 |
| joshua___ | "you have 12 new bugfixes" followed by "the following package have been kept back" | 03:55 |
| Viking667 | Hi there. I've got a rather awkward question. I'm trying to burn a DVD as UDF from a set of files I have. Can this be done from brasero? | 03:55 |
| frankely | what ssh client, do you recommend me | 03:55 |
| Xfact | well, finally I understood what I need to do...thanks for $uggestions :) | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | !ssh | frankely | 03:55 |
| ubottu | frankely: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 03:55 |
| frankely | ? | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | frankely: depends on what you want to do.. thers good old 'scp' and 'ssh' and gnome file manager has the feature.. and about every other file manager out | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | frankely: or use 'sshfs' | 03:56 |
| frankely | i just want a ssh client that allows me change permisions and access folders graphically | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Thersz more to 'ssh' then just transfering files. :) | 03:56 |
| joshua___ | you betcha | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | frankely: most file managers can connect to ssh servers and alter files. | 03:56 |
| frankely | so | 03:57 |
| frankely | how i make it? | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | frankely: places -> connect to server | 03:57 |
| LJR | Oh people of all-knowingness - do I want to get up long enough to get a cocoa moo? | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Logical :) | 03:57 |
| joshua___ | I use ssh on Windows as suitable infrastructure replacement for all manner of VPN systems | 03:57 |
| frankely | and there? | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | try it and see... | 03:57 |
| joshua___ | works so much better if you're willing to take the half hour to instal it | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | tell it to connect. | 03:57 |
| joshua___ | how much more when it gets its native environment | 03:57 |
| bastid_raZor | frankely: tell it to use ssh as service type .. the rest explains it self | 03:58 |
| Ilmatic | hey dr. willis | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Ilmatic: Hmm? | 03:58 |
| Ilmatic | what's your current screen resolution? | 03:58 |

| Dr_Willis | karmst: even then.. doing a full backup of a system in use.. may cause.. issues.. | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: perhaps proper use of rsync | 04:05 |

| faileas | karmst: eh, i've been looking for one. the only one that claims to do a live bare metal restore on a working system is mondo | 04:07 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: 'fsarchive' from a live cd - is also a handy tool. Its on many linux-rescue type cd's | 04:07 |

| Alan502_ | gmachine_24, i got my skype working. Just the sound but at least that is something. I just had to replace esound with pulseaudio | 04:09 |
| Alan502_ | gmachine_24, thanks for the help | 04:09 |
| faileas | sabgenton: you need to use apt cd to add the cd, then do as per normal | 04:09 |
| genii | !hi | 04:09 |
| hexed | anyone have any experience installing the gateway6 ipv6 tunnel client? | 04:09 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to ubottu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines Enjoy your stay! | 04:09 |
| genii | Ok, link fixed | 04:09 |
| gmachine_24 | faileas, yes, that is what I am doing. Except now I am making notes and printing pdf versions of everything. | 04:09 |
| === Amaranth__ is now known as Amaranth | ||
| sabgenton | Faileas thanks | 04:09 |
| gmachine_24 | Alan502, yeah. I was going to say you could play with the sound settings but then if something went wrong I would have had no idea how to fix it. :D | 04:10 |
| gmachine_24 | Glad it worked. | 04:10 |
| * faileas figures it wouldn't hurt to ask again... | 04:10 | |

| df00zzzz1 | what on earth... | 04:10 |
| karmst | hmmm... | 04:10 |
| hexed | if not gateway6 can anyone recommend a better ipv6 tunnel client? | 04:10 |
| karmst | mondo does have a debian / karmic package | 04:10 |
| sabgenton | faileas: you mean apt-cdrom ? | 04:11 |
| faileas | I'm trying to set up a minimal system, built around openbox, and just what i need. I would like a gui multiplatform IM client that dosen't have a ton of prerequisites - i need about 100 mb of packages to install pidgin, and that's not really acceptable | 04:11 |
| gmachine_24 | is it df00zzzz1? | 04:11 |
| faileas | sabgenton: yeah. i think i do | 04:11 |
| df00zzzz1 | Hm? | 04:11 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.fsarchiver.org/Installation | 04:11 |
| sabgenton | :) | 04:11 |
| gmachine_24 | faileas, I hate pidgin | 04:11 |
| faileas | karmst: i have not gotten it working yet ;p | 04:11 |
| Dr_Willis | FSArchiver is a system tool that allows you to save the contents of a file-system to a compressed archive file. The file-system can be restored on a partition which has a different size and it can be restored on a different file-system. | 04:11 |
| faileas | gmachine_24: eh, i use kopete mostly. its not a good fit for this project | 04:12 |
| karmst | hmmm... | 04:12 |
| faileas | i found one that would fit.. but it keeps crashing on my system ;p | 04:12 |
| karmst | Well what I'd like to be able to do is restore my workstation / servers in the event of a DR | 04:12 |
| afroEngineer | what do i use to run a .run file | 04:12 |
| karmst | even if it's to new hardware | 04:12 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis, is FSArchiver a front-end for a tool I know by another name? | 04:13 |
| karmst | faileas did you get the manual? | 04:13 |
| faileas | karmst: most people tend to use file level backups. I've been looking for an app that does this for ages ;p | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: its not a front end. | 04:13 |
| faileas | karmst: for the app i compiled? | 04:13 |
| gmachine_24 | ok | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: its a relatively new tool. | 04:13 |
| karmst | for Mondo | 04:13 |
| gmachine_24 | ok | 04:13 |
| gmachine_24 | I will add it to my "to do" list | 04:13 |
| faileas | karmst: yeah, it was a while back. | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | gmachine_24: its main feature it archives at the file level. nto the whole 'filesystem' | 04:14 |
| gmachine_24 | nto? | 04:14 |
| Dr_Willis | It should be available in the standard repository in Ubuntu-10.04 (Lucid Lynx) if everything is ok. | 04:14 |
| gmachine_24 | oh, not. nm | 04:14 |
| gmachine_24 | okie | 04:14 |
| karmst | well they have a new version made for Karmic | 04:14 |
| nvme_ | i installed drbl on karmic desktop i386, and am trying to clone an HP blade server, but when i try to boot the blade with clonezilla i get "network driver not found" in the kernel image (2.6xxx-16) | 04:14 |
| joshua___ | is wiki.ubuntu.com down? | 04:14 |
| karmst | no source compiling needed | 04:14 |
| lotus | hey, I'm in the installation phase of ubuntu 9.10 | 04:14 |
| lotus | in the alternate installer | 04:14 |
| lotus | I've selected my /dev/sdc to install grub to, and it errored out | 04:15 |
| lotus | so I selected to install lilo to it, and it's asking for a cdrom | 04:15 |
| lotus | but I've been using usb the whole time | 04:15 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: why would you want LILO? | 04:15 |
| LinuX2half | When I insert a window installation disc, the computer is unable to read the content. | 04:15 |
| lotus | because grub errored out | 04:15 |
| lotus | /dev/sdc is a usb drive | 04:15 |
| nvme_ | i installed drbl on karmic desktop i386, and am trying to clone an HP blade server, but when i try to boot the blade with clonezilla i get "network driver not found" in the kernel image (2.6xxx-16), anyone know how to fix that ? | 04:15 |
| lotus | I didn't know what to do | 04:16 |
| lotus | do I have to restart the whole installation? | 04:16 |
| pepperjack | nvme_: youll want the network card driver :) | 04:16 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: its possible you could boot/chroot into the installed system, then try reinstalling grub. | 04:16 |
| === kevdog_ is now known as kevdog | ||
| * Dr_Willis shudders at the thought of using LILO these days | 04:16 | |
| nvme_ | pepperjack, well i dont understand why the latest ubuntu kernel image doesnt have it already :P | 04:16 |
| karmst | hmm | 04:17 |
| karmst | what is the difference from Mindi and Mondo? | 04:17 |
| lotus | Dr_Willis, so cancel at the "install the lilo boot loader" screen by ctrl-alt-delete? I can't get out of it and I don't have a cdrom to put in. | 04:17 |
| pepperjack | nvme_: that kind of detracts from the convenience of clonezilla i guess | 04:17 |
| gmachine_24 | Has anyone else here worked @ freegeek.org in Portland? | 04:17 |
| nvme_ | pepperjack, huh ? | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: no idea really on whats best. you could check the forums I guess there may be some work around | 04:18 |
| karmst | hmmm | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: my machines dont even have cd drives. :) | 04:18 |
| karmst | ok faileas | 04:18 |
| lotus | yeah I'm on a netbook | 04:18 |
| karmst | is there a way to automate using this thing? | 04:19 |
| lotus | :P | 04:19 |
| lotus | but anyways, that's not the real issue. | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: they work together like salt and peper. :) sugar and spice.. and err.. i better stop there.. this is a faimly channel | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | !info mindi | 04:19 |

| lotus | and it didn't take, any idea why? | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: not really. Unless its confused by what you booted from and what you are installing to. | 04:20 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: you booted from a usb device.. and are installign to a 2nd usb device? | 04:20 |
| skyllo | Hello, I am suffering from low resolution due to the monitor being unknown. Using Ubuntu 9.10 Koala, video card SiS. I already have the drivers installed. put a 800x600 resolution does not exceed | 04:20 |
| Viking667 | ugh. | 04:21 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: if i recall right. You use Mondo/Mindi and you can make an 'bootable restore disk set' that you boot and restore the whole system from. | 04:21 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: if you are lucky the bootable disks properl do all the setup like a live cd does. :) | 04:21 |
| karmst | right but can you automate the backups? | 04:22 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: that was also the weakest link i found in the system of mondo/mindi | 04:22 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: automate in what way.? | 04:22 |
| karmst | like have it do incremental backups? | 04:22 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont think thats the goal/design feature of the tool.. check their homepage is my advice | 04:22 |
| Burzmali | Anyone know a way to back up SafeDisc protected CDs with ubuntu? | 04:22 |
| skyllo | Hello, I am suffering from low resolution due to the monitor being unknown. Using Ubuntu 9.10 Koala, video card SiS. I already have the drivers installed. put a 800x600 resolution does not exceed | 04:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Burzmali: thers so many types of 'safedisk' its hard to say. Theres proberly some tools that can do SOME.. | 04:23 |
| lotus | Dr_Willis, yes that's exactly true | 04:23 |
| lotus | O | 04:23 |
| lotus | I'm rebooting now and am gonna have to reinstall everything because it's encrypted and the instalelr won't see it so I'll ahve to repartition | 04:24 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: when you boot one usb key. it becomes 'sda' in many cases.. the installer can get confused because its trying to install the bootloader to 'sda' which is actually what it booted from.. not sdb which you are installing to. | 04:24 |
| lotus | Dr_Willis, it found the usb drive to be sdc | 04:24 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: i tend to use the usb-disk-creator tool to make a bootable usb-live-key with a persistant save. I rarely do a 'full' install to a flash drive | 04:24 |
| karmst | man this can't be working right | 04:25 |
| Burzmali | Dr_Willis: I've been trying with most of the standard ones in the repo without much luck. It looks like the CDs have a "feature" that prevents imaging. Most of my CDs are the old kind that are are on the edge of wearing out. | 04:25 |
| karmst | it only took 2 minutes to backup the whole system?!? | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Burzmali: i just use no-cd-cracks for most of my old games. | 04:25 |
| lotus | I'm not trying to install to the flash drive I just want grub on the flash drive so it won't boot linux without the drive inserted | 04:25 |
| karmst | hmmm | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: thats.. weird.. | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 04:25 |
| karmst | Does something like backupexec work on Ubuntu? | 04:26 |
| lotus | I know! | 04:26 |
| lotus | :D | 04:26 |
| nvme_ | i installed drbl on karmic desktop i386, and am trying to clone an HP blade server, but when i try to boot the blade with clonezilla i get "network driver not found" in the kernel image (2.6xxx-16), anyone know how to fix that ? | 04:26 |
| * Dr_Willis predicts some reading of the grub docs in lotus 's future | 04:26 | |
| Burzmali | Dr_Willis: As do I, but not all of the old stuff I have has easy to find nocd patches. | 04:26 |
| lotus | I'll dive into that. Thanks Dr_Willis | 04:26 |

| gmachine_24 | sorry guys. someone gave me a computer for christmas | 04:28 |

| karmst | What do you guys do it you lose your Ubuntu system?!? | 04:28 |
| gmachine_24 | ok | 04:28 |
| karmst | if* | 04:28 |
| joshua___ | skyllo: have you tried vesa driver? Last I checked it will let you go arbitrarly high w/o knowing monitor | 04:28 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: i keep my /home/ on its own partition. I can easially reinstall and get back in action. | 04:29 |
| karmst | right but that doesn't keep all your configurations and programs | 04:29 |
| Dr_Willis | karmst: if i really wanted to i could arvhive my /home to a fileserver | 04:29 |
| Dr_Willis | 'programs' - trivial to reinstall stuff.. | 04:29 |
| Dr_Willis | configs.. also not really a big deal. | 04:29 |
| Dr_Willis | keep arvives on your ubuntu one account if you want | 04:30 |
| joshua___ | Dr_Willis: I did even better: non-apt installed stuff is installed in /usr/local,which is a symlink to /home/local | 04:30 |
| karmst | yes but still it's time consuming | 04:30 |
| skyllo | joshua___ | 04:30 |
| skyllo | Yes, plus it also comes only to 800x600 when it should reach 1400x1050 | 04:30 |
| gmachine_24 | I do the old-fashioned tar back up and leave off the /home/** or rather do them on a separate run. All are programmed to run by themselves.... so it's easy. | 04:31 |
| the_nation | hi I am having an issue with running Ubuntu 9.10 from usb. I can get it to boot up just fine, but when I do a system update, I am unable to boot again from the usb | 04:31 |
| the_nation | is it not possible to apply the latest updates? | 04:31 |
| karmst | I want something that you throw a CD in the drive or use a network card boot to do a full restore | 04:31 |
| Viking667 | what sort of "system update"? | 04:31 |
| skyllo | my monitor is 15 | 04:31 |
| karmst | or be able to transfer the backup to a VM | 04:31 |
| Viking667 | does the system update include touching grub? | 04:31 |
| the_nation | like system file updates | 04:31 |
| the_nation | Actuially I think it does | 04:31 |
| Viking667 | that could be your issue. See what's in /boot/grub/ | 04:32 |
| Viking667 | I don't know if you're using grub2 yet. I don't know much about how to boot from USB, nor do I know that much about how grub works. But I know that the grub can get a bit worked over when updating. | 04:32 |
| the_nation | Viking, after the update it asks me to restart, once restarted the usb drive is no longer an option from my boot menu just cd and HD | 04:32 |
| the_nation | if that makes sense | 04:33 |
| gmachine_24 | So, what do people use to make copies of their legally obtained DVD movies? | 04:33 |

| justin_ | Has anyone ever complied ALSA? | 04:35 |
| karmst | Is this true? | 04:35 |
| gmachine_24 | the_nation, have you used dvd::rip lately? | 04:35 |
| gmachine_24 | kevdog, thanks. | 04:35 |
| joshua___ | Did you guys see the guy yesterday who actidentally tee'd something to /dev/sda (hint: do that = no boot) | 04:35 |
| Viking667 | joshua___: can't be as bad as Linus Torvalds. One day he tried to (successfully, I might add) use his hard drive as a modem... | 04:36 |
| kevdog | dvd decrypter also -- but its hard to find -- its about 3 years since its been updated but works for me most of the time -- its quick and easy to use despite what other people may say | 04:36 |
| justin_ | My system doesn't sound | 04:36 |
| justin_ | and I cann't find alsa module | 04:36 |
| NRV | gmachine_24: i have done a couple through DD, I loved it when dvd:::rip worked :( | 04:36 |
| NRV | speaking of which, does anyone have that working with 9.10? | 04:37 |
| the_nation | Viking thanks for pointing me to the possible issue. I'll have a look at it and report back in a bit :) | 04:38 |
| gmachine_24 | NRV, yeah, I was going to say I thought that prog died awhile ago. I used it for awhile as well | 04:38 |

| hyperstream | slesnett, trying to access windows shares? | 04:47 |
| Dr_Willis | slesnett: to connect to the ubuntu samba shares - i always givbe the linux user a samba password with 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' - I ioften just set the samba password the same as the users login password. | 04:47 |
| gmachine_24 | but... what.. is an "original" My Fair Lady DVD? | 04:47 |
| Alan502 | gmachine_24, hahaha perhaps, the worst thing is that i need to use the windows app to connect to my modem, because connecting from linux makes it more unstable. I just connect on a windows comp and bridge it to this one. | 04:47 |

| Jason2gs | Who would want to block neopets? | 04:49 |
| slesnett | @nrv yes, I think, I have gotten smb.conf and changed the workgroup and it finds the machine. | 04:49 |
| lakotajames | Jason2gs: it's a long story :p | 04:49 |
| Dr_Willis | lakotajames: the 'privoxy' proxy may be a little smarter about blocking things.. Or you could also try the opendns server/service/solutions | 04:49 |
| NRV | slesnett, so it prompts for a username and password? | 04:49 |
| Jason2gs | lakotajames, my guess would be that you also need to block 'www.neopets.com'. They're two different things. | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | lakotajames: but i dont see how that is not working.. :) | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | ahh that makes sence Jason2gs | 04:50 |
| lakotajames | Jason2gs: thanks :) | 04:50 |
| gmachine_24 | Alan502: I have found, when connecting wirelessly from Ubuntu to a public wi-fi place, that the connection comes and goes .... all the time. Until I figured out I had to remove all the old files from my browser, espeicially the cookies. | 04:50 |
| giiker | is there anycommand that tells me weather or not a PATA drive is working a a ceratin DMA mode? | 04:50 |
| slesnett | @nrv no,only a password stating I don't have access. | 04:50 |
| gmachine_24 | I don't know if this helps. | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Guess he dont want his kids connecting to neopets.com :) | 04:51 |
| giiker | is there any command that tells in which DMA a PATA drive is working? | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | reroute neopets.com to go to lolcats.com :) | 04:51 |
| NRV | slesnett, ok for that user account on the windows machine, is a password set? some versions of windows will only allow access to shares and remote desktop if a password is set | 04:51 |
| petsounds | Dr_Willis, do you know why lots of people have problem with flash on karmic? :( | 04:51 |
| hyperstream | gmachine_24, sounds very strange, i can see one of my mates routers and connect to it from here inside my house which is 200meters away without an issue lol. downloads at 500kb's stable as well | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | petsounds: because adobe dosent really care about linux users.. | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | petsounds: theres also some issues with compiz and flash. | 04:52 |
| Alan502 | gmachine_24, that's weird. I might try it, or change to debian lol | 04:52 |
| giiker | is there any command that tells in which DMA mode a PATA drive is working? | 04:52 |
| slesnett | @NRV all the machines (windows and ubuntu) have passwords | 04:52 |
| gmachine_24 | try anything | 04:52 |
| Dr_Willis | petsounds: and the weird way some sites handlr flash dosent help much either.. Ive seen some sites where flash dosent work on their main page.. but it does on other pages on teh same site | 04:52 |
| Jason2gs | With a couple of small hacks, I've managed to fix virtually all of my flash problems here on Karmic. | 04:53 |
| Jason2gs | Is nice. | 04:53 |
| gmachine_24 | slesnett I am sending you a link via PM to an article I used to build my first Ubuntu/Windows network. It is simple and helpful | 04:53 |
| * Dr_Willis waits for flash to die. | 04:53 | |
| Jason2gs | It's not a one-stop-fix, as I'd hoped, but it works. | 04:53 |
| hyperstream | gmachine_24, can you also throw me that like please | 04:53 |
| genii | giiker: hdparm -v (you'll need hdparm installed) | 04:53 |
| petsounds | Dr_Willis, it rarely happen on previous release of ubuntu, i have 6 friends at campus that can't hear the sound from youtube video. :( | 04:53 |
| slesnett | @NBRV includes the upstairs machines that are working. PM?? | 04:54 |
| giiker | genii: thankx, i'll try htat now! | 04:54 |
| gmachine_24 | slesnett: sent you the link | 04:54 |
| mediaprodigy | SUCCESS... surfing the internets | 04:54 |
| Dr_Willis | petsounds: previous releases may also be using earlier releases of flash. | 04:54 |
| Eruaran | Hello, is anyone familiar with this problem: A recent new Ubuntu install cannot get a gnome desktop up and running. Has an error saying it cannot update ICEauthority problem after updates ?? Home is encrypted and something seems to have gone wrong. | 04:54 |
| gmachine_24 | mediaprodigy: yay | 04:54 |
| Dr_Willis | petsounds: thers some package i recall that was supposed to help fix flash sound issues.. but i dont recall its name | 04:54 |
| mediaprodigy | thanks.. for anyone interested WG111 USB works plug n play | 04:54 |
| hyperstream | Eruaran, you got your encryption passphase yes? | 04:54 |
| heralyenie | iytfg9uo | 04:55 |
| gmachine_24 | OK. I gotta go. Thanks to everyone for the help and camaraderie. | 04:55 |
| alejandro-math | I love Ubuntu !!! | 04:55 |
| giiker | genii: the help menu options jsut came up, nothing else... | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis | alejandro-math: marry it then. :) | 04:55 |
| alejandro-math | I <3 Ubuntu :-) | 04:55 |
| alejandro-math | ^^ | 04:55 |
| slesnett | @NRV I must be missing something, I don't see anything. | 04:55 |
| alejandro-math | i try it | 04:56 |
| genii | giiker: hdparm -v /dev/sda as a for-instance | 04:56 |
| darkham | hi people , have ubuntu something like apple automator? | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | darkham: and that does what? | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | sounds like a kitchen appliance | 04:56 |
| Jason2gs | :D | 04:57 |
| Alan502 | lmao @Dr_Willis | 04:57 |
| Dr_Willis | make apple pies in 1/2 the time with the APple Automator! | 04:57 |
| Hilikus | im using ubuntu 9.10. the version of ampache in the repo is 3.5.1. it has as a suggested package mysql5.0 but 9.10 comes with 5.1. do i really need 5.0 or i can use it with mysql 5.1? | 04:57 |
| Jason2gs | My mum | 04:57 |
| Jason2gs | had this thing | 04:57 |
| Jason2gs | where you put an apple under it, | 04:57 |
| darkham | Dr_Willis, automator help to build script with gui | 04:57 |
| giiker | genii: that di not work either | 04:57 |
| Jason2gs | and it sliced it. Took the core out and everything. | 04:57 |
| Jason2gs | I'd call that an apple automator... | 04:57 |
| Dr_Willis | darkham: ive seen some bash builder helper tools. ages ago.. but o dont recall anything recently... | 04:58 |
| giiker | genii: it says: IO_support = 0 (default) readonly = 0 (off) readahead = 256 (on) geometry = 19457/255/63, sectors = 312581808, start = 0 | 04:58 |
| RealKillaz | hi I would like to the content of one file to another using CL: what am I doing wrong here: content_from_here >> content_to_here | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: I think you missed a few words in that question.... | 04:58 |
| slesnett | @gmachines_24 I found it. Thnaks I'll check it out. | 04:58 |
| giiker | genii: the drive is not mounted yet, do you think that will be the problem? | 04:58 |
| peekat | CL? | 04:58 |
| darkham | Dr_Willis, an instrument like that would help many new user to learn bash cpmmands | 04:58 |
| RealKillaz | like to copy* | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | darkham: reading bash docs help you learn bash commands... | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | darkham: using a gui tool just keeps you from that. :) | 04:59 |
| genii | giiker: No. More likely it's due to scsi layer. Probably need sdparm | 04:59 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, like to copy* content of one file to another using command line | 04:59 |
| hyperstream | Dr_Willis, agreed | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | darkham: i recall some 'universial front end' tool ages ago that sort of let you create a gui to a command line tool that would then run the tool witht he options.. but o forget its name.. i saw it on a live cd.. ages ago | 04:59 |
| Jason2gs | It's like this. When I boot my computer without the monitor plugged in, my screen res. defaults to, like, 640x480, and Ubuntu has trouble recognizing it or something. When I boot with it plugged in, all is fine. | 05:00 |
| Jason2gs | And, like, I don't know why. | 05:00 |
| giiker | genii: ok, thanks, first time I see this command! | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: cat file1 >> file2 I think.. or > | 05:00 |
| Jason2gs | The obvious solution would be to always boot with the monitor plugged in. | 05:00 |
| Jason2gs | This is true. | 05:00 |
| Jason2gs | But... | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: i forget which > and >> differ.. one voerwrites other appends | 05:00 |
| hyperstream | darkham, just google a bash scripting tutorial. | 05:00 |
| giiker | Dr_Willis: >> appends | 05:00 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, ok I forgot the cat command in front.. | 05:01 |
| giiker | Dr_Willis: >> = append | 05:01 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: yea. I wondered if that was a typo on your paste here.. or not. :) | 05:01 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, thanks.. yup >>, because I would like to append | 05:01 |

| terinjokes | i've got a problem bridging wlan0 ---> eth0, if there is no bridge, the wlan0 interface gets an IP address, and is able to ping the internet | 05:02 |
| peekat | I've just spent the night banging my head against the wall on something... bought a new Linksys wireless G PCI adapter (ra61 driver). It's totally supported by the latest Kunbuntu, it shows up, it finds my access point, all that. But the network just keeps saying Unavailable. Anyone have any thoughts? | 05:02 |
| terinjokes | if there is a bridge, the wlan0 interface gets an IP address (i see the DHCP requests), but then it losses it. any ideas? | 05:02 |
| darkham | hyperstream, yes i had read many documentations, but sometimes, without too much time , it's a little bit too expensive write many lines for some commands | 05:02 |
| peekat | (Er, unrelated to what terinjokes just said -- coincidence) | 05:02 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, ok... | 05:02 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, I keep getting permission denied. I'm using sudo and the file is 644 owner is root | 05:03 |
| darkham | hyperstream, i prefer the terminal , most of the time | 05:03 |
| terinjokes | peekat: tried connecting from the shell? | 05:03 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, I'm using sudo | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: with using sudo and the pipeing/redirection stuff.. it can get tricky. | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: let me find this url... | 05:03 |
| peekat | terinjokes: Tried, yes, but I don't really know the commands that well. Got lots of errors, tho. :) | 05:03 |
| giiker | genii: I run sdparm, but i can't decipher what the numbers mean | 05:03 |
| hyperstream | darkham, thats what i call being lazy, code is very quickly done if you know what your doing and working with. | 05:04 |
| cjae | if some had a directory with multiple kinds of data waiting to be burnt to disc, but found it quite monotonous to make each disc manually, eg. add all files to compilation what would one search google for in terms of automation? | 05:04 |
| gmachine_24 | Dr_Willis: Hi again. What was the name of the DVD client/software you use? Please? | 05:04 |
| terinjokes | peekat: is the network password-protected? | 05:04 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, I'm always messing around with tricky things :-) | 05:04 |
| gmachine_24 | Is petsounds still here | 05:04 |
| Tiders | Can Ubuntu use beryl/ | 05:04 |
| gmachine_24 | Tiders, yes | 05:04 |
| hyperstream | darkham, same here, terminal FTW | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: see --> http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/05/09/a-root-shell-on-ubuntu-the-right-way/ | 05:04 |
| peekat | terinjokes: Yes. (And before you ask, it's a cellular access point, so I can't unprotect it). It's WAP, and I know I've got the password right becuase I'm connected on my windoze box | 05:04 |
| Tiders | !beryl | 05:04 |
| ubottu | Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion. New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz | 05:04 |
| === LzrdKing is now known as LizardK|ng | ||
| giiker | genii: would DMA mode considered a caching mode? | 05:05 |
| Tiders | Thats lame | 05:05 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: the issue is the pipe stuff works as teh USER not root the way sudo reads it. | 05:05 |
| Tiders | gmachine_24, So I can only get compiz-fusion now? | 05:05 |
| Dr_Willis | combining the redirection in the command we’ve lost sudo access. | 05:05 |
| gmachine_24 | Tiders, well obviously I am not up on this but yes | 05:05 |
| gmachine_24 | Tiders, you can get beryl | 05:05 |
| gmachine_24 | but......... | 05:05 |
| gmachine_24 | as the note says, it's discouraged | 05:06 |
| Tiders | gmachine_24, Ah i see | 05:06 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, I see. So I should use tee | 05:06 |
| RealKillaz | Dr_Willis, thnx | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Beryl is basically dead.... | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | i dont think its been updated in a long time. | 05:06 |
| gmachine_24 | very dead | 05:06 |
| giiker | genii: the numbers are exit codes for othe scripts | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | RealKillaz: yes.. tee for you | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Emerald is also basically Dead. :) | 05:06 |
| peekat | When I run 'iwconfig' it shows the ESSID as "", but Network Manager shows the right SSID (as does 'iwlist scan'). I think it's probably an authentication issue, but I can't find any good info on how to troubleshoot that. (All the wiki stuff is outdated or doesn't otherwise apply.) | 05:07 |
| genii | giiker: Been a while since I used hdparm/sdparm, it may not be giving the info like bus speed you wanted to find out | 05:07 |
| mcurran | Anyone here know how to setup your ip address for apache2? | 05:07 |
| Dr_Willis | I wish that Metisse got more popular - it had some really neat features | 05:07 |
| Dr_Willis | http://insitu.lri.fr/metisse/videos/ | 05:08 |
| Dr_Willis | !info metisse | 05:08 |
| faileas | mcurran: generally it should just work. what's the specific problem? | 05:08 |
| ubottu | Package metisse does not exist in karmic | 05:08 |
| faileas | Dr_Willis: dosen't mandriva use that? | 05:08 |
| mcurran | I click on Start HTTPD and then I receive this error: No IP Address configured! | 05:08 |

| peekat | And in my GUI, the connection exists, but says 'Unavailable'... | 05:09 |
| giiker | genii: thanks | 05:09 |
| peekat | terinjokes: Thanks, but that's where I've spent all night... | 05:09 |
| hyperstream | so is there any harm in opening up a root shell with sudo -i ? | 05:09 |
| NRV | mcurran, have you checked your httpd.conf and ports.conf file? | 05:09 |
| hyperstream | apart from what i myself can damage/and or services i may run with possible security holes? | 05:09 |
| iceroot | hyperstream: no | 05:10 |
| hyperstream | thanks | 05:10 |
| mcurran | i checked apache2.conf, I didn't know there was a separate httpd one, I'll check it out - thanks | 05:10 |
| terinjokes | peekat: you mean WPA? | 05:10 |
| peekat | Yeah, typo | 05:10 |
| mcurran | actually, it was the httpd.conf file - I'll check out ports | 05:11 |
| faileas | peekat: hmm, tried using wpa_supplicant the old fashioned way to see if it works? | 05:11 |
| peekat | terinjokes: Uses WPA (TKIP), and my XP laptop connected easily. So I know the access point is fine. | 05:11 |
| GeorgeL | hey! anyone know how the adaptive huffman algorithm work? | 05:11 |
| terinjokes | peekat: one sec | 05:12 |
| morpheus_ | hi all | 05:13 |
| giiker | anyone knows a small command/script to measure write speed to a hard drive? nothing graphical though?/ | 05:13 |
| peekat | terinjokes: I know the adapter is working, cuz it found the AP's broadcast. It let me set up the connection. But the connection just shows Unavailable in the GUI (and ESSID="" in the terminal). It's driving me nuts. (and you may have many seconds -- I appreciate the help!) | 05:13 |
| faileas | peekat: http://pastebin.com/mcb87cb3 try using this wpa_supplicant.conf file. -> its usually saved as wpa_supplicant.conf. then run " sudo /sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -B -ieth0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf; sudo dhclient eth0 " | 05:14 |
| faileas | er.. replace both eth0 with your wireless adaptor's name. mine is eth0 for some funny reason | 05:14 |

| ubuntunewbie | hi , does ubuntu really did a clean uninstall for application ? | 05:16 |
| morpheus_ | after starting mplayer, sound will not play in any program, player dont work. it's write "Error opening/initializating the selected video_out (-vo) device." | 05:16 |
| faileas | peekat: you may need to change the -D bit as well... that command is specific to what driver you use | 05:16 |
| hyperstream | ubuntunewbie, english please | 05:16 |
| giiker | sudo hdparm -t /dev/sda4 | 05:16 |
| giiker | oops wrong window | 05:16 |
| faileas | ubuntunewbie: depends on how you uninstalled it. apt-get remove keeps config files - to nuke those you need apt-get purge | 05:16 |
| giiker | or terminal | 05:16 |
| ubuntunewbie | such as if I install a program , will it still leave a trace such as a few file ? | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | morpheus_: the defalt -vo 'device' may need to be changed. | 05:16 |
| faileas | giiker: it happens. its worse when you type that sorta thing to a girl you're chatting up tho :) | 05:17 |
| LizardK|ng | ok, grub didn't pick up a kernel image for xen, so i guess the package doesn't come with one... do i need to compile my own? | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | morpheus_: but im not sure why that sould affect sound.. unless mplayer is some how crashing | 05:17 |
| hyperstream | ubuntunewbie, LOL | 05:17 |
| peekat | faileas: Oops! I'll do that as well, then.. I'm rt61, not wext | 05:17 |
| morpheus_ | <Dr_Willis> yes it's crash | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntunewbie: the pacakge manager has a 'purge' option to remove all system configs.. the package manager will NOT NOT NOT affect configs and files in the users home dirs. | 05:17 |
| maco | ubuntunewbie: sudo apt-get purge <progra> | 05:17 |
| Xfact | anybody can tell me how to get the cool 'application dock' in ubuntu? | 05:17 |
| maco | ubuntunewbie: uhh what Dr_Willis said | 05:17 |
| faileas | peekat: i can't remember if rt61 is in the kernel yet. i used to have one, and it was a minor pain | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | morpheus_: try some different -vo outputs perhaps | 05:17 |
| maco | ubuntunewbie: that it was once installed and has since been purged will still show in "dpkg -l <package>" however | 05:18 |
| Flannel | ubuntunewbie: When you purge a package all of the files it installed are removed. If it created any user configuration files (they would be in your homedir or stored data for that matter) when you ran the program, those won't be removed automatically. | 05:18 |
| ubuntunewbie | faileas , hyperstream : I mean I install in a different way there's a installation file | 05:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Xfact: install some docks (i hate most of them) - Docky is one avail in the PPA repos that i actually found 'useable' | 05:18 |
| LizardK|ng | i like cairodock | 05:18 |
| terinjokes | peekat: http://paste.ubuntu.com/351618/ | 05:18 |
| faileas | ubuntunewbie: er.. depends. if you want a clean install and uninstall, you might want to consider using checkinstall instead of install - this makes a deb you can remove with apt | 05:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Xfact: gnome-do also has a 'docky' theme for a ok dock. But its beeeing phased out and replaced by the 'docky' stand alone program in the next release I belive | 05:19 |
| sri | how to configure ftp on Ubuntu??? | 05:19 |
| terinjokes | peekat: change the -i part in /etc/network/interfaces to your wireless driver | 05:19 |
| Dr_Willis | !ftpd | sri | 05:19 |
| ubottu | sri: FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP | 05:19 |
| sri | Which one is good for ftp Server? | 05:20 |
| peekat | faileas: Hrm... actually, it doesn't recognize that. Which is odd, because the driver is definitely installed (it shows up w/'lshw' and 'lsmod'). When I tried it with wext, though, it said "Listening on LPF/wlan0/<addr>", "Sending on <same>", "Sending on Socket/fallback", and then just kept repeating "DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval <X>" where X was 8, 12, 11, etc. | 05:20 |
| LizardK|ng | anyone know where i can get a precompiled kernel to use with xen, or do i need to compile my own? | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | sri: checkout the homepage/docs for the various ones.. it depends on yoru needs.. they are all 'ftp servers' | 05:20 |
| terinjokes | i lied, i meant -D | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | sri: i suggest learning to use ssh/scp and forget about ftp | 05:20 |
| ubuntunewbie | faileas : here is my real question. | 05:20 |

| neezer | I am pretty sure that I have bluetooth on my laptop. | 05:23 |
| faileas | ubuntunewbie: i really have no idea there | 05:23 |
| ubuntunewbie | Dr_Willis: dont mind much about watermark , just wantedto continue using after 30 days | 05:23 |
| faileas | Dr_Willis: lol. very few companies give linux love ;p | 05:23 |
| ubuntunewbie | faileas: maybe I am the only one asking this question here :-S | 05:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Personaly i have added canon to my list of 'do not buy' companies | 05:23 |
| * terinjokes gives linux love | 05:23 | |
| ubuntunewbie | Dr_Willis: brought a canon printer before I knew linux ubuntu | 05:24 |
| SetiAmon | hey are there any wireless keyboard/mouse for ubuntu 9.04 | 05:24 |

| terinjokes | SetiAmon: with or without the dongle? | 05:24 |
| SetiAmon | I don't know there are dozens of sets i was just wondering what i should be going after | 05:24 |
| terinjokes | SetiAmon: actually, i don't think it matter... most *should* work | 05:25 |

| SetiAmon | terinjokes:they all seem to say "windows certified" and such. I have no experience with this so i was just wondering what i should do or if it was worth the stress,but it sounds like most should be PnP | 05:26 |
| neezer | when I open it up and chose setup new connection, it doesn't find any devices. | 05:26 |
| Xfact | I found only 'Cairo-dock' | 05:27 |

| joshua___ | starting with /sbin/sulogin! | 05:33 |
| chiques | I did mount the drive, apparently there's a password on this drive which is preventing me from accessing it. I'm trying to back up the data. | 05:33 |
| osmosis | wow, banshe seems way nicer then rhythmbox. I wonder why ubuntu keeps rhythmbox as the default. | 05:33 |
| ziroday | chiques: err that password prompt is for your login password on your ubuntu machine | 05:33 |
| ziroday | hyampomeranian: wait, do you want to enable or disable the saving of cookies | 05:34 |
| nomnex | how do I expend all the folders in list view in Nautilus? | 05:35 |
| nomnex | Edit: expend all the sub-folders... | 05:35 |
| osmosis | why is tracker no longer included by default? | 05:36 |
| ziroday | osmosis: because it was no longer developed and had stability issues | 05:36 |
| hyampomeranian | I want to enable cookies. I get the report, from sites that require cookies, that they are not enabled. At /Edit/Preverences/Privacy Firefox reports that it will remember the history. If I change the setting my changes are not remembered by Firefox. | 05:36 |
| LizardK|ng | ugh, how do i get a kernel for xen in karmic? | 05:37 |
| iflema | osmosis: banshee... isnt it a mono thing | 05:37 |
| neezer | slesnett: is there a way I can tell to make sure my laptop even has bluetooth. I have checked online and I think it does. | 05:39 |
| bastid_raZor | iflema: yes, and for me it has a small memory leak | 05:39 |
| bastid_raZor | iflema: BUT... it is the only player that fully cooperates with cairo-dock applets | 05:40 |
| osmosis | ziroday, is there a replacement for tracker? | 05:40 |
| iflema | bastid_raZor: it ball parks it... but its crap/crashed | 05:40 |
| ziroday | osmosis: beagle? | 05:40 |
| osmosis | ziroday, kinda sucks that after nearly a decade gnome has no decent file syste search tool. | 05:40 |
| ziroday | osmosis: or you can still use tracker, its just not shipped by default | 05:40 |
| osmosis | ziroday, i thought tracker replaced beagle | 05:40 |
| ziroday | osmosis: there are plans to change that for GNOME 3.0 | 05:40 |
| peekat | terinjokes: Okay, I updated my interfaces as shown (and I'd already set up the wap_supplicant.conf file earlier) and now my GUI doesn't show ANY connection -- if I click on the earth, it lists the connection name, but clicking on it produces nothing. I don't think Kubuntu likes me trying to configure stuff in the shell.... | 05:40 |
| ziroday | osmosis: no, beagle and tracker are just two different search tools | 05:41 |

| PyroPhelia | i'm a little confused as to how mdadm handles failed disks and rebuilds. I had a disk fail in a raid 6 so I replaced it with an identical drive and added it to the array. now it says the array is degraded and rebuilding with 1 spare. how do I make that drive I added to the array active? | 05:44 |
| maco | think so... | 05:44 |
| Fog | k thanks | 05:44 |
| iceroot | Fog: on reboot, also some apps are using /mp and deleting content after the program is finished | 05:44 |
| maco | id be surprised if temporary files didnt go away on reboot | 05:44 |

| mitchnboof | hows that? | 05:50 |
| iflema | nomnex: the left pane in nautilus across from the close icon(X) it'll prob say in drop down box places... select tree | 05:50 |
| PyroPhelia | iceroot, your point? debian != ubuntu. debian works. | 05:52 |
| nomnex | iflema, the question is how to expend folders in list view | 05:52 |
| iceroot | PyroPhelia: my point is that crosspostings are not very welcome, thats all | 05:52 |

| surgy | can someone tewll me where "settings" is in anjuta? | 05:53 |
| PyroPhelia | bean, no centos is based off of redhat. ubuntu is nothing like debian. the only similarity is the packaging system. | 05:54 |
| iceroot | PyroPhelia: ubuntu is debian sid with patches | 05:54 |
| PyroPhelia | right | 05:54 |
| bean | PyroPhelia: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/debian | 05:54 |
| PyroPhelia | lol | 05:54 |
| PyroPhelia | sid = broken = ubuntu | 05:55 |
| PyroPhelia | my point stands | 05:55 |
| surgy | ubuntu == brokbuntu | 05:55 |
| PyroPhelia | and how did this begin, I didn't come here to rag on ubutnu. | 05:55 |
| surgy | can someone tewll me where "settings" is in anjuta? | 05:55 |
| bean | I don't get why you're so cynical about this PyroPhelia, its not broken and works for me™ | 05:55 |
| gee | can anyone tell me why ubuntu is recognizing all my blank dvd+r as having a 2.1 gig file on them | 05:55 |
| PyroPhelia | bean, ext4 | 05:55 |
| bean | PyroPhelia: then don't use ext4? | 05:55 |
| nomnex | gee, do you try another DVD? what's the output? | 05:56 |
| PyroPhelia | i'm pretty sure it's teh defualt fs now isn't it? | 05:56 |
| Ryan1 | I've been using ext4 since Jaunty and haven't had any problems | 05:56 |

| bean | PyroPhelia: I don't know why you're basing ext4 tho | 05:56 |
| gee | yeah i tried a few....and what do you mean output? | 05:56 |
| Ryan1 | nightsjammies: Yes | 05:56 |

| gee | ill try k3b then...does it burn iso images? | 05:57 |
| faileas | nightsjammies: i have a very old one that does. hardware isn't all that different between brands these days | 05:57 |
| faileas | gee: yes | 05:57 |
| nightsjammies | Do you have any issues with suspend and the display brightness coming back dim? | 05:57 |
| nightsjammies | true.. | 05:57 |
| gee | cool | 05:57 |
| nightsjammies | it's a CQ60 | 05:57 |
| Fog | i like ubuntu. but i'm not religous about it. i'd jump ship in a second if i thought something was better for me | 05:57 |
| nightsjammies | I like eeebuntu. | 05:57 |
| Ryan1 | nightsjammies: I don't suspend it, I just set the display to turn off when the lid is closed | 05:57 |
| nightsjammies | I tried opensuse...what a friggin pain. | 05:57 |
| Fog | does eeebuntu run better on an eeepc than nbr? | 05:58 |
| nightsjammies | I know, as do I. But it's my wife's laptop, and so I wanted to try out the suspend option. | 05:58 |
| nightsjammies | eeebuntu is nbr. | 05:58 |
| nomnex | gee, u r on ubuntu or kubuntu? | 05:58 |
| PyroPhelia | bean, the utils that ubuntu ships with do not allow for the creation of large file systes with ext4. they are limited at 15TB. even if ext4 was stable, why the hell would you make ext4 your defualt FS when it's about as useless as ext3....and more buggy | 05:58 |
| surgy | can someone tewll me where "settings" is in anjuta? | 05:58 |
| nightsjammies | NBR is just the remix of the standard desktop. | 05:58 |
| PyroPhelia | bean, and you can stop at any time. SID is debians still in development tree. they don't call it stable for a reason | 05:59 |
| nightsjammies | And yes, it runs very good. | 05:59 |
| Fog | i have an eeepc with nbr | 05:59 |
| gee | ubuntu | 05:59 |
| Fog | it's alright but i prefer the normal ubuntu interface | 05:59 |
| Dr_Willis | surgy: if its a kde app = proberly in .kde* somewhere | 05:59 |
| nightsjammies | what series Fog? | 05:59 |
| iceroot | PyroPhelia: dont use ubuntu if you hate it so much | 05:59 |
| Fog | 1005hab | 05:59 |
| bastid_raZor | PyroPhelia: what average desktop user has a box with 15TB in it? you're missing the entire point. | 05:59 |
| bean | PyroPhelia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 tells me that the max volume size is 1 EiB | 05:59 |
| nightsjammies | If I recall, they put in a way to disable the nbr interface. | 05:59 |
| Dr_Willis | surgy: thers also .config that has stuff in it. | 05:59 |
| nightsjammies | Go to the eeebuntu forums and ask around. | 06:00 |
| PyroPhelia | bean, the kernel supports file suystems of that large yes. but you can't format a raid larger than 15TB | 06:00 |
| nightsjammies | do you have 3.o? | 06:00 |
| nomnex | gee, u cannot burn anything on them using brasero? | 06:00 |
| PyroPhelia | bean, it has the same limitations as ext3. for now. | 06:00 |
| gee | brasero? | 06:00 |
| Dr_Willis | ANd here i am with my brand new 200000TB flash drive... | 06:00 |
| gee | :D im a definate noob | 06:00 |
| nightsjammies | o.O | 06:00 |
| PyroPhelia | bastid_raZor, many people with home media centers. | 06:00 |
| nomnex | gee the default gnome burning CD DVD tool | 06:00 |
| surgy | Dr_Willis: no no its a gnome app | 06:00 |
| surgy | can someone tewll me where "settings" is in anjuta? | 06:00 |
| PyroPhelia | bastid_raZor, 2TB drives are cheap | 06:01 |
| bean | PyroPhelia: give me a link that that shows that then | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | surgy: .gnome* then most likely under one of those dirs | 06:01 |
| nightsjammies | Hey, is it possible to burn the original xbox games onto a disk for use? | 06:01 |

| nightsjammies | How do you mod the xbox? | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | nightsjammies: with mod chips.. | 06:01 |
| iceroot | nightsjammies: this is ubuntu support | 06:01 |
| nightsjammies | is it a software or hardware fix? | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | nightsjammies: 'yes' :) | 06:02 |
| bastid_raZor | PyroPhelia: true, but the masses do not have a need for 2TB's of drive space. the majority emails and surfs the web.. | 06:02 |
| gee | yeah i went under properties on each disc i tried and it always said it had a 2.1 gig file on it | 06:02 |
| nightsjammies | Thanks iceroot. I forgot where I was :p | 06:02 |
| PyroPhelia | bean, I've done it myself I know the limitation. | 06:02 |
| nomnex | Dr_Willis, how can I expand all folder/sub-folders in nautilus in list view? | 06:02 |
| nightsjammies | figures.. | 06:02 |

| Dr_Willis | gee: yea. not sure what the deal is. theres been issues with brasero on and off since 9.10's been out | 06:03 |
| nomnex | Dr_Willis, pardon me? | 06:03 |
| nightsjammies | Wait, what issues? | 06:03 |
| nightsjammies | Is there something better than brasero? | 06:03 |

| Alan502 | :| | 06:14 |
| bean | surgy: could try reading this. http://library.gnome.org/devel/anjuta-manual/stable/project-config.html.en | 06:15 |

| terinjokes | i'm running two computers on a subnet with a linux box acting as a router, any ideas on how to forward multicast | 06:17 |
| bean | Alan502: could try find ./ -type f -mtime -1 -exec ls -al {} \; | 06:17 |
| bean | Alan502: that will give you files modified today | 06:17 |
| Alan502 | bean, thanks man :) | 06:18 |
| lotus | Dr_Willis I redid the install and I'm currently trying to install grub to /dev/sdc again | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: way to go! :) | 06:19 |
| lotus | Dr_Willis, you previously suggested that there might be an issue with the mapping, I think you're right. How can I verify and correct the mapping issue? | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: your grub-fu skills will improve Lotus-eater! | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 06:19 |
| lotus | :) | 06:19 |
| Eruaran | Has anyone else seen the "cannot update ICEauthority" problem after letting Ubuntu do lupdates recently ? | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: chedk the device.map file | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: its a rather simple file | 06:20 |
| Guest88969 | is there any backup solution, which takes all the data backups with OS in archive formate and in emergency i can use that archive to recover my host ? | 06:20 |
| faileas | Guest88969: on a running system? no idea. if you don't mind downtime to backup, clonezilla isn't bad | 06:20 |
| bean | terinjokes: might want to check out SMCRoute | 06:20 |
| koshari | Guest88969 patimage will do that if oyu havnt used ext4 | 06:21 |
| lotus | Dr_Willis, trying to find it. It apparently appears on the usb drive (which doesn't quite make sense to me) and I'm waiting to see it show up somewhere else on the ramdisk | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest88969: check fsarchiver --> http://www.fsarchiver.org/Main_Page also | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: yea the ramdisk/live filesystem can be odd due to how it does overlays and stuff.. | 06:21 |
| shawnboy | I've used fsarchiver that comes on sysresccd | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | lotus: the update-grub command can take a lot of options to where to look for such files | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | fsarchiver - to be in the 10.4 repos.. and has PPA repos now. :) | 06:22 |
| koshari | iam yet to have as good as results on fsarchiver than partimage , shame partimage is abandonware though | 06:22 |
| terinjokes | bean: how? i don't understand the upnp and multicasting needed to make this work | 06:22 |
| surgy | openSuse is better* | 06:22 |
| lotus | Dr_Willis, found it in /target it lists /dev/sda as hd0, sdb as hd1, and sdc as hd2 | 06:22 |

| Dr_Willis | Im so glad they made it flexiable! | 06:23 |

| * NRV is knocking off | 06:24 | |
| Dr_Willis | Ive never managed to understand xen. :) | 06:24 |
| brianherman | anyone know a good tutorial on xen? | 06:24 |
| surgy | LizardK|ng: why do you need a xen kernal? | 06:24 |
| LizardK|ng | surgy, to run xen | 06:25 |
| LizardK|ng | Dr_Willis, it's a hypervisor | 06:25 |
| brianherman | im gonna run xen in vmware | 06:25 |
| brianherman | hehe | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | LizardK|ng: yea - i understand the basics.. :) i just dont really have a need for it. and when i tryed to play with it a few releases ago.. i ended up.. breaking things.. heh | 06:25 |
| Saano | Would anyone mind helping me resolve my resolution issue? Messing with xorg on my own has never ended well. | 06:25 |
| nomad77 | shawnboy: the 2.6.32.2 is a newer/more recent version | 06:25 |
| shawnboy | newer than rc8? | 06:26 |
| nomad77 | yuh | 06:26 |
| shawnboy | can u explain why .2 is not rc10? (for my understanding sake) | 06:26 |
| LizardK|ng | but as far i as i understand, you need a kernel with xen options enabled | 06:26 |
| Saano | Is it possible to use two different video cards in Ubuntu? | 06:26 |
| Dr_Willis | LizardK|ng: check the pacakge manager? i was thinking there was -xen kernels.. but that may of been in 9.04 or earlier. | 06:26 |
| terinjokes | bean: ? | 06:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Saano: yes it is. | 06:27 |
| bean | terinjokes: I don't know specifically how to make it work, | 06:27 |
| nomad77 | shawnboy: just the nomenclature they use for kernel versions. kernel.org | 06:27 |
| LizardK|ng | Dr_Willis, looks like i need to get it from debian | 06:28 |
| shawnboy | so, if I want to run 2.6.32 kernel I guess I may as well get 2.6.32.2 instead of rc8, huh? | 06:28 |
| smoo2 | hello, having probs with permissions. I've just copied a directory full of music to the Music dir under my home, but now I cannot cd Music/ ... I get a permission denied error | 06:28 |
| chiques | So for some crazy reason, I ended up recompiling my kernel to install oss sound drivers to try to get my fax modem to work. It didnt'work and I screwed up my ALSA drivers. Is there any way to recompile my kernel so I I can use my ALSA again? I hope this makes sense | 06:28 |

| desynch | hmmmm ... | 06:36 |
| ralf_e | Dr_Willis, yeah, it seems pretty much dead, that's why I'm asking. | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | desynch: xubuntu-desktop should be safe. but it may change your default gdm/splash themes also.. (no big deal) | 06:36 |
| desynch | im up now with gnome and works fine | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive gotten where i dont care much for the xfce desktop.. just to many annoying quirks. :) | 06:36 |

| Mikeyx13 | does neone know how to set it up in vsftpd where the user you create can upload files | 06:44 |
| gl1tch3r | I hitted a bug where karmic started eating all my freespace, and after the reboot I lost my desktop preferences and panel settings, and now, I have random keyboard lockups, the panel menus doesnt open sometimes | 06:44 |
| karmst | does anyone now what files are needed for backup and restore of the entire Ubuntu Karmic? | 06:44 |
| eein | does 9.10 use an /etc/X11/xorg.conf? | 06:45 |
| karmst | <noob here | 06:45 |
| Mikeyx13 | help? | 06:45 |
| karmst | like what does the /dev folder do? | 06:45 |
| surgy | karmst: a live cd ? | 06:45 |
| bean | karmst: you dont need /proc or /dev | 06:46 |
| gl1tch3r | anyone? | 06:46 |
| karmst | ok what about lib, lib32, lib64? | 06:46 |
| Viper1432 | typically karnst, you would backup your /home directory. Then use the live cd to install without overwriting /home. done. | 06:46 |
| karmst | eein yes 9.10 uses xorg.conf | 06:46 |
| karmst | but Viper1432 what if you want to bring your programs and settings over as well to the new installation | 06:47 |
| isolat3dsh33p | gl1tch3r: I think you got a virus :P | 06:47 |
| eein | karmst: sorry to ask but do you know mint because I have the fortune of fixing a graphic issue on it and it does not seem to have one and I thought it was built around ubuntu | 06:47 |
| karmst | I've used mint | 06:48 |
| Viper1432 | karnst, by keeping /home intact, it DOES keep your settings. All you have to redo is apt-get apps that aren't on the base install. The settings will be in your /home folder. | 06:48 |
| karmst | but don't really know it that well | 06:48 |

| cdsboy | I'm having an issue with streaming video from a samba share on my local server. I didn't have this issue before i did a clean install of ubuntu upgrading 8.10 to 9.10, and i have no idea where to begin looking to find out what is wrong. Any suggestions on what to check? | 06:49 |
| karmst | hmmm | 06:49 |
| karmst | where are all the configuration files at and desktop settings and applications in home? | 06:50 |
| karmst | I see them in /etc | 06:50 |
| karmst | but not in home | 06:50 |
| Viper1432 | karmst, open nautilus and do a ctrl+h to view hidden files in your /home directory. | 06:50 |
| Viper1432 | config folders and files are always prefixed with a dot making them hidden. | 06:51 |
| karmst | ah | 06:51 |
| gl1tch3r | isolat3dsh33p, ROFL | 06:51 |
| Viper1432 | which is why backing up /home, or keeping it on a separate partition is always good advice when needing to reinstall or build anew. | 06:51 |
| karmst | so basically if I make my home folder portable I'd be able to go to any Ubuntu 9.10 machine and load up all my progs and settings? | 06:52 |
| Viper1432 | theoretically karmst but if that were the desire, then using a livecd plus the usb drive as storage option would be the way to go. | 06:52 |
| Viper1432 | And if you tried to do that on my ubuntu boxes, I'd have ta slap you. | 06:53 |
| Viper1432 | :) | 06:53 |
| karmst | man this OS is really slick | 06:53 |
| gl1tch3r | no, really, this is getting annoying, first I thought it was the OSD and I disabled it, but just now I watched a video and the menu and I wanted to open the SYSTEM menu and I couldnt | 06:53 |
| gl1tch3r | I had to restart | 06:53 |
| karmst | Extremely better than windows | 06:53 |
| karmst | ;) | 06:53 |
| Viper1432 | yes it is karmst. :) | 06:54 |
| karmst | without image backup in windows it takes like 20 hours to reload a box | 06:54 |

| gl1tch3r | yes I did, but was working fine until today, and I havent add new ones since last week | 06:57 |
| angelus|sleep | karmst, xkill doesnt have a -force option | 06:57 |
| terinjokes | selfimage: so i could unplug my server from the hub (which is the gateway, provides DHCP, and the such) and these two computer shauld still work with multicast? | 06:57 |
| bean | karmst: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/linuxdir.html | 06:57 |

| selfimage | terinjokes: you aren't using a hub.. you are using a router that you bought at the store to share you Inet connection correct? | 06:58 |
| angelus|sleep | sorry, ignore that ... apparently i did end process, kill process seems to work .... :S | 06:58 |
| terinjokes | selfimage: nope, i've got a hub | 06:58 |
| angelus|sleep | weird ... | 06:58 |
| selfimage | so your server is supplying your DHCP? | 06:59 |
| terinjokes | (ok... it says it's a switch...) | 06:59 |
| terinjokes | selfimage: i just said that | 06:59 |
| gl1tch3r | isolat3dsh33p, yes I did, but was working fine until today, and I havent add new ones since last week | 06:59 |
| isolat3dsh33p | gl1tch3r: I'm not sure, could be compiz problem or the applet. Maybe you should try removing the new applet. | 06:59 |
| selfimage | yes in theory it should | 06:59 |
| unop | terinjokes, the switch has got to support multicast then | 06:59 |
| gl1tch3r | mmhhh you think compiz may be? I think you could be right, didnt think of that | 07:00 |
| karmst | great | 07:00 |
| terinjokes | unop: any way to know that? somewhere these multicast packets are getting lost | 07:00 |
| === damaty_ is now known as damaty | ||
| karmst | ;) | 07:00 |
| isolat3dsh33p | gl1tch3r: Just a possibility though. :) | 07:00 |
| gl1tch3r | if I delete the .compic settings folder could it fix it? im trying that | 07:01 |
| gl1tch3r | compiz i meant | 07:01 |
| karmst | so then you really don't need Anti-Virus on Ubuntu? | 07:01 |
| isolat3dsh33p | gl1tch3r: You don't have to. Just disable compiz. « metacity --replace » | 07:01 |
| Misantropo | my system is using almost all the swap and my RAM is at 35%. How can i check which process is using that swap?? i tried system monitor, but there is no Swap choice under the columns available, there is just Virtual Memory, which in sum is more than what i have for SWAP | 07:01 |
| morpheus_ | karmst yes | 07:01 |
| isolat3dsh33p | karmst: Nope, you need Anti-Bugs. ;) | 07:02 |
| unop | terinjokes, errm, monitor traffic using something like wireshark ? | 07:02 |
| gl1tch3r | im going to miss compiz lol | 07:02 |
| selfimage | Minsatropo: ps -ef | 07:02 |
| terinjokes | unop: but the server's no longer connected ;) | 07:02 |
| morpheus_ | isolat3dsh33p No, you need hands.pl and brain.so | 07:02 |
| wolter | how do i select the default input source in gnome? | 07:02 |
| isolat3dsh33p | morpheus_: You means fingers.sh? | 07:03 |
| * terinjokes wonder's who great idea it was to *force* the use of 8-digit connection codes and muliticasting | 07:03 | |
| morpheus_ | isolat3dsh33p print 'maybe, but not for me %)' | 07:04 |
| wolter | i think you need to stop the computer jokes, this is not getting any better | 07:04 |

| phoebus | No questions, just wanted to express the love. | 07:06 |
| terinjokes | disabled the firewall on the PC... and it worked... go figure (should have ignored the "we've configured the firewall for you" message | 07:06 |
| phoebus | Being the guy who uses linux with a command line on a dedicated laptop .. but never really as a desktop. | 07:06 |

| drunkpunk | hey folks can anyone help me with a problem related to a LAMP server installation I implemented in order to use an online OS called eyeOs - I know this is kinda leftfield and quite posssibly off-topic... | 07:12 |
| phoebus | in fact, one simple thing, how do you change the default browser in ubuntu? | 07:12 |
| aaron11 | Hello I want to know if the apple magic mouse would work with my favourite os. | 07:13 |
| Flannel | drunkpunk: You're better off just asking your question, and if anyone knows the answer, they'll answer you | 07:13 |
| acer1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/351650/ isolat3dsh33p | 07:13 |
| nbros652 | phoebus: System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications | 07:13 |
| drunkpunk | Flannel: well the basic prob is I can now reach the desktop i created from my laptop whilst at home but nowhere else | 07:14 |
| phoebus | thank you nbros652 | 07:14 |
| leissi | Morning everyone | 07:14 |
| Dan48p | hi is ext4 the default file system in ubuntu 9.10 64 bit? | 07:14 |
| Flannel | drunkpunk: You're behind a router at home, I trust? | 07:14 |
| aaron11 | leissi: For some people its night | 07:14 |
| leissi | So I have this problem in ubuntu. My sound seems to stutter for a fragment of a second every now and then, is there any way to fix this? | 07:14 |
| drunkpunk | Flannel: i am indeed | 07:14 |
| phoebus | sweet, and thus opera is my browser, I'm now connected to my work... <3 | 07:15 |
| aarcane | bah, stupid ext4. xfs 4 lyfe! | 07:15 |
| isolat3dsh33p | acer1: are you using a desktop? | 07:15 |
| leissi | aaron11, let's pretend it's UGT everywhere :P | 07:15 |
| aaron11 | Flannel: If his ip begins with 192.168 then yes | 07:15 |
| leissi | (universal greeting time) | 07:15 |
| karmst | Hey Thanks everyone Deja Dup works like a charm! | 07:15 |
| phoebus | 64-bit opera with 64-bit plugins, man.. linux on the bleeding edge ;) | 07:15 |
| acer1 | isolat3dsh33p..yeah | 07:15 |
| Flannel | drunkpunk: You'll need to forward the port(s) you need on your router (to your server machine) -- This generally also means you'll want to set it up with a static IP | 07:15 |
| phoebus | This laptop ran vista, it's an sl400... boot time is down to.. uhh 15% of the time. | 07:15 |
| Dan48p | also is ext4 the proper file system to use with an ssd? | 07:15 |
| shauno | Is it possible to block specific users from sshd ? (like PermitRootLogin, but for a specific non-root user) | 07:16 |

| isolat3dsh33p | acer1: I can't help you then. :( | 07:16 |
| wolter | hi, mi computer has the option to use "Analog Stereo Duplex" and "Digital Stereo Duplex" as sound devices... I don't know why "Digital *" doesn't work | 07:16 |
| surgy | gnome in all its glory | 07:16 |
| acer1 | isolat3dsh33p .. whats wrong? does laptops have bug fixes and not desktops? | 07:16 |
| acer1 | :O | 07:16 |
| Flannel | shauno: DenyUsers user1 user2 user3 (there's also DenyGroups if that's easier) | 07:17 |
| drunkpunk | Flannel: i've configured portfowarding for P2P is it a similar process? | 07:17 |
| shauno | Flannel: perfect, thanks | 07:17 |
| ac-lyon-karim | hi | 07:17 |
| aaron11 | Hello I want to know if the apple magic mouse would work with ubuntu. | 07:17 |
| shauno | I knew it had to be there, but I didn't see anything obvious in sshd_config | 07:17 |
| isolat3dsh33p | acer1: Nope, I don't have enough knowledge on desktop to help. :( | 07:18 |
| acer1 | ok, thnx for ur concern :) good luck | 07:18 |
| acer1 | isolat3dsh33p | 07:18 |
| Flannel | drunkpunk: It's exactly the same, yeah. You'll just want to do it for http (port 80) or https (port 443). And with regard to setting up a static IP (so you always forward to your server, even after a reboot where it might change IPs or whatnot): https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html under "ethernet" (sort of the fifth paragraph or so, search the page for 'static') there's a setup for a static IP | 07:19 |
| isolat3dsh33p | acer1: sorry can't help, btw ;) | 07:19 |
| acer1 | its fine the front audio jack doesnt detect output on ubuntu 9.10 karmic, pls help, it was working until jaunty. | 07:19 |

| petsounds | phoebus, you can install unrar. | 07:22 |
| okan_ | outpput | 07:22 |
| okan_ | he says output | 07:23 |
| faileas | knight5482: ffmpeg | 07:23 |
| wolter | acer1, hm... yeah so, you basically can't connect a jack to your computer to play sound externally | 07:23 |
| wolter | acer1, have you tried gnome-alsamixer? | 07:23 |
| surgy | acer1: tried openSuse ? | 07:23 |
| phoebus | I tried the free unrar, but guess it's command line based, late night feeling lazy. :P | 07:24 |
| acer1 | nop, im used to connecting my headphone into the front audio jack, and the speakers to the rear audio jack, but since the karmic upgrade, the front jack doesnt detect output, but the rear jack works ok | 07:24 |
| acer1 | wolter | 07:24 |
| knight5482 | faileas: i looked at the manual but i didnt find the way, can you help me by giving me example ? | 07:24 |
| faileas | knight5482: hm. get winff. it has a mode to tell you the arguements . then use those ;p | 07:25 |
| acer1 | opensuse 11.2 doesnt detect front jack ..fedora 11 & 12 doesnt either wolter | 07:25 |
| bean | acer1: could be a bios setting then? | 07:25 |

| acer1 | u got it fixed? i thought i needed a alsa downgrade | 07:26 |
| wolter | acer1, hm.. you sure nothings muted, or with lowered volume? | 07:26 |
| acer1 | wolter | 07:26 |
| brahmana | du -csh shows it properly | 07:26 |
| isolat3dsh33p | knight5482: use sound converter | 07:26 |
| brahmana | Also df -i shows that a huge chunk of inodes is unused. | 07:26 |
| wolter | acer1, yes, I was doing that, but then I came back to pulse and it was fixed | 07:27 |
| brahmana | What is df (df -h specifically) is showing wrong numbers like 98% used? | 07:27 |

| acer1 | no worries:) | 07:46 |
| ardchoille | !gksudo | okan_ | 07:46 |
| ubottu | okan_: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 07:46 |
| sri | ok | 07:46 |
| okan_ | not graphical | 07:46 |
| ardchoille | okan_: gedit is a graphical app | 07:46 |
| okan_ | in terminal | 07:46 |
| bazhang | okan_, you need gksudo | 07:47 |

| Darkedge | iflema: What do you mean "other access denied"? | 08:10 |
| Darkedge | others* | 08:10 |
| Surlent777 | itai: It should show in the right column...if you have just a square media player then try pressing Ctrl+H to display the rest, otherwise, if it's there, check out the drop-down menu | 08:10 |

| Surlent777 | jellow_: yeah, I know...I remember seeing it before too. What the expletive have I done? | 08:12 |
| Darkedge | legend2440: this is honestly really confusing to say, but basicly if I've run the Live CD the boot before, I can boot normaly. | 08:12 |
| desynch | how to use svn with proxy? | 08:12 |

| jussi01 | can someone tell me what the *'s mean here? The following packages will be REMOVED: totem* totem-common* totem-plugins* | 08:15 |
| acer1 | no okan_ but the one thing ive noticed is the sound preferences now shows 2 microphones | 08:15 |
| Surlent777 | It is my suspicion that "aptitude reinstall" does absolutely nothing to fix any problems ever. | 08:15 |
| acer1 | in the input section | 08:15 |
| okan_ | hmm | 08:15 |
| jellow_ | MrDudle: alt - f2 and type xkill , use the icon on the window you want to kill | 08:15 |
| acer1 | the output..no developments :( | 08:15 |
| MrDudle | jellow_: i did | 08:15 |
| MrDudle | and it's still there :o | 08:15 |
| okan_ | oof | 08:15 |

| mneptok | jussi01: totem-plugins totem-plugins-extra | 08:16 |
| mneptok | jussi01: etc etc | 08:16 |
| ardchoille | jussi01: I usually see that "*" when I am purging rather than removing | 08:16 |
| Surlent777 | okay I may just have to take that back...I used Synaptic the first time and thought nothing happened, and then I did it with aptitude and screen works =D | 08:16 |
| MrDudle | jellow_: any other ideas? | 08:16 |
| acer1 | yes okan_? | 08:16 |
| jellow_ | MrDudle: Restart x would be to simple i imagine =/ | 08:16 |
| okan_ | i know this way is hard but i have succeed | 08:16 |
| okan_ | try second acer1 | 08:16 |
| desynch | anyone to help me? | 08:16 |
| acer1 | 3 stack? | 08:17 |
| opticon | what can i install to gain access to terminal remotely | 08:17 |
| okan_ | no | 08:17 |
| okan_ | 3stack | 08:17 |
| MrDudle | jellow_: I'll probably just restart the comp | 08:17 |
| mneptok | opticon: openssh-server | 08:17 |
| jellow_ | MrDudle: not sure if it would show up on ps -aux , can't realy help | 08:17 |
| acer1 | ok, i'd replace ref with 3stack okan_ | 08:17 |
| okan_ | options snd-hda-intel model=3stack | 08:17 |
| acer1 | ok? | 08:17 |

| okan_ | yes | 08:17 |
| c0l2e | can anyone post the /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default content ?? | 08:17 |

| desynch | iflema, because our company uses http proxy | 08:18 |
| okan_ | line | 08:18 |
| acer1 | not the 3stack line? | 08:18 |
| acer1 | or both? | 08:18 |
| opticon | from terminal apt-get openssh but i think their is switch you can add in and make it resolve depends anyone kno? | 08:18 |
| acer1 | okan_ | 08:18 |

| acer1 | ? | 08:19 |
| mneptok | opticon: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 08:19 |
| Surlent777 | Gentlemen, I have something to say: Aptitude may just be the best freaking program ever invented. I'll have to reboot to confirm this, but it may have fixed a three week old problem. I reinstalled stuff with Synaptic to no effect to try and fix it, but reinstalling with aptitude seems to have fixed it. | 08:19 |
| okan_ | no | 08:19 |
| okan_ | sorry | 08:19 |
| c0l2e | legend2440: so It's blank?? just the #!/bin/bash | 08:19 |
| okan_ | only options snd-hda-intel model=3stack | 08:19 |
| legend2440 | c0l2e: #!/bin/sh and exit 0 | 08:20 |
| jellow_ | MrDudle: can't help you perhaps if yous tick around someone else might know | 08:20 |
| acer1 | ok, and the old line? | 08:20 |
| c0l2e | ok thanks | 08:20 |
| acer1 | okan_ | 08:20 |
| acer1 | ? | 08:20 |
| mneptok | Surlent777: sl > aptitude ;) | 08:20 |
| ardchoille | c0l2e: http://ardchoille42.pastebin.com/m20c44dcd | 08:20 |
| MrDudle | jellow_: i'd stay around but i don't want it burning onto mys creen | 08:20 |
| okan_ | remove it | 08:20 |

| desynch | =) | 08:22 |

| APERSON | Darkedge, you're best off repeating your issue. | 08:25 |
| legend2440 | Darkedge: what video card you have? | 08:25 |
| firekool | Hi i am trying to get my Dell Vostro 1500 wireless to work it uses the BCM4312 Chipset. I show that it used to work now it does not. I was wondeirng if there was any updated information on the card. | 08:25 |
| Darkedge | APERSON: "repeating" it? | 08:25 |
| Darkedge | legend2440: Intel 82845G | 08:25 |
| Dandan | Any ideas how to get lame to write vbri or xing headers? | 08:25 |
| APERSON | Darkedge, I scrolled back a bit, I didn't see what your problem was | 08:26 |

| Surlent777 | okay...it worked until I rebooted. Then screen, bitlbee, gpm, and tor didn't work. Then I reinstalled them again, and they worked. Clearly, something is interfering with these things starting up on boot... | 08:27 |
| UnknownUser56 | Hi | 08:28 |
| acer1 | but okan_ the rear microphone which didnt work until now has startd working, i dunno how | 08:28 |
| Fog | i ran 'sudo ufw allow 4444/tcp' but i can't connect to that port from another computer on my LAN. any idea why? i can if i 'sudo ufw disable' though so i know it's the firewall issue | 08:28 |
| acer1 | the line has helpd me in that regard | 08:28 |
| UnknownUser56 | I've had the ubuntu 8.10 iso for a while now and I tried to burn it today to make a bootable CD for another computer just now | 08:28 |
| okan_ | hmm | 08:29 |
| UnknownUser56 | It's not acting as a live CD, that is, I have to open the computer run wubi and restart | 08:29 |
| okan_ | wait acer1 | 08:29 |
| acer1 | okan_ 5stack now? | 08:29 |
| UnknownUser56 | Sadly, the computer's original Os is failing ( windows ) and I need it to act as a live CD | 08:29 |
| okan_ | yes :) | 08:29 |
| acer1 | ok :) | 08:29 |
| Surlent777 | UnknownUser56: You need to set your BIOS to boot from the CD-ROM drive | 08:29 |
| UnknownUser56 | How can I remedy this ? | 08:30 |
| UnknownUser56 | Surlent77: Heh, I know that | 08:30 |
| UnknownUser56 | It's still not booting | 08:30 |
| acer1 | options snd-hda-intel model=5stack okan_? | 08:30 |
| okan_ | yes maan you are correct | 08:30 |
| acer1 | ok,, | 08:30 |
| iflema | UnknownUser56: have you the ubuntu remix? | 08:30 |
| okan_ | good luck again | 08:30 |
| okan_ | :) | 08:30 |
| Surlent777 | UnknownUser56: Double-check. Also ensure that you have a good copy of the iso and that you burned it properly. MD5 hashes can be found on the official site, somewhere | 08:31 |
| iflema | UnknownUser56: noit remix alternate | 08:31 |
| acer1 | thnx again, brb | 08:31 |
| UnknownUser56 | So, any help ? | 08:31 |
| Fog | hrm nm now it's working | 08:31 |
| Darkedge | APERSON: Basicly I need to have run the Ubuntu Live CD the boot before to boot properly the next boot | 08:31 |
| iflema | UnknownUser56: do you have the alternate version of ubuntu? is the no option to boot live in the menu? | 08:31 |
| UnknownUser56 | Let me check | 08:32 |
| iflema | the alt version has no live option ... just install | 08:32 |
| culinor | hello guys, can you suggest any program to deal with .rar files? | 08:32 |
| ejv | unrar | 08:32 |
| ejv | sudo aptitude install unrar * | 08:32 |
| Surlent777 | so, if certain services are unwilling to start themselves without some forceful intervention, what would be the first things to check? | 08:32 |
| ejv | (no asterisk, just a typo correction) | 08:33 |
| Quan-Time | im uploading something on my machine to the LAN.. can i find out what it is ? can i detect what files are being access or being sent out ? | 08:33 |
| firekool | I am trying to get my wireless working on my dell vostro 1500 the drivers for the bruadcom are installed but they are not working | 08:33 |
| UnknownUser56 | I have the ubuntu 8.10 desktop i386, I think that's the one with the most configurations; I'm not savvy with linux based OSs at all so forgive me for being a noob in this case | 08:33 |
| culinor | thank you, ejv | 08:34 |
| UnknownUser56 | I don't use burning programs, I use the built-in functionality of Windows | 08:34 |
| UnknownUser56 | If that helps | 08:34 |
| Surlent777 | I don't think Windows can *do* that | 08:34 |
| Quan-Time | what about windows ? you checkin yoru burnt copy ? | 08:34 |
| ejv | you're welcome culinor | 08:34 |
| DaZ | windows can do everything. | 08:34 |
| acer1 | :( | 08:35 |
| Quan-Time | DaZ: even crash repeatedly and screw up simple bluetooth drivers | 08:35 |
| Surlent777 | Windows cannot deal with ISO files out of the box, so far as I know | 08:35 |
| Surlent777 | especially not the extraction process involved in burning them | 08:35 |
| iflema | just drop'n' drap data | 08:35 |
| ejv | under windows, to burn live-cd's, I recommend imgburn | 08:35 |
| DaZ | Quan-Time: fortunately, linux doesn't have drivers to screw :) | 08:35 |
| ejv | free software :) | 08:35 |
| UnknownUser56 | Surlent77 : Windows can burn CDs ... I'm not sure if the flag for a bootable CD is set by a program or by the contents of the CD though | 08:35 |
| ejv | UnknownUser56: imgburn | 08:36 |
| acer1 | okan_ noo... | 08:36 |
| UnknownUser56 | Ah, I use MagicISo for extraction | 08:36 |
| okan_ | fuckin your board :) | 08:36 |
| DaZ | every os is decent and can do everything. | 08:36 |
| Surlent777 | UnknownUser56: It may be able to burn CD's, but like I said, last I checked it didn't deal with ISOs like you'd expect; rather it literally copies the ISO file onto the disk. Found that out the hard way. Or rather, my dad did | 08:36 |
| Ilmatic | my screen resolution is all good nowwwwww | 08:36 |
| Ilmatic | thank you so much for letting me know about xorg.conf | 08:36 |
| Ilmatic | lol | 08:36 |
| Surlent777 | DaZ: Macs still can't right-click ;) | 08:36 |
| acer1 | hahahaha | 08:36 |
| okan_ | i am joking | 08:36 |
| okan_ | wait | 08:36 |
| ejv | UnknownUser56: you shouldn't have to extract anything, the livecd's are downloaded in an image format, .iso. Go here: http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download | 08:36 |
| Flannel | okan_: Please mind your language. Thanks | 08:36 |
| user___ | cups isnt running locally and it refuses to start, i have tried reinstalling the package. what can i try next? | 08:36 |
| DaZ | Surlent777: fud <: | 08:36 |
| acer1 | ok okan_ | 08:36 |
| Ilmatic | ubuntu is the shit | 08:37 |
| iflema | . | 08:37 |
| ejv | !language | Ilmatic | 08:37 |
| ubottu | Ilmatic: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 08:37 |
| okan_ | but it have to work acer1 | 08:37 |
| Quan-Time | UnknownUser56: default windows burn (via explorer) DOES NOT burn "bootable " Cds (winxp).. im not sure about vista or 7.. but possibly the same.. a free burn prog would be "iso burn" or "infrarecorder". both 100% free to use | 08:37 |
| Surlent777 | user___: we are in the same bleedin' boat. Except for me it's tor, bitlbee, gpm, and screen | 08:37 |
| Ilmatic | woops | 08:37 |
| Ilmatic | i'm just really happy | 08:37 |
| okan_ | i got angry | 08:37 |
| Ilmatic | : ) | 08:37 |
| ejv | ;) | 08:37 |
| gumtrolium | Hi All | 08:37 |
| Surlent777 | infrarecorder is my favorite | 08:37 |
| UnknownUser56 | ejv, well yeah, I downloaded the .iso for ubuntu 8.10 , extracted the files using MagicISo, burned the extracted files to a CD but the CD isn't bootable | 08:37 |
| UnknownUser56 | That's the problem, wondering why | 08:37 |
| culinor | i don't know why, but "sudo aptitude install unrar *" removed a lot of packages before installing | 08:37 |
| gumtrolium | I have problem with 9.10 netbook remix. | 08:38 |
| ejv | UnknownUser56: yea, that's why, you need to burn the image, not extract the files out, that's why you're having issues | 08:38 |
| UnknownUser56 | Quan-Time, ah thanks I'll look into them | 08:38 |
| Surlent777 | UnknownUser56: don't do it that way, use the software we recommended. We recommened it because it works. :) | 08:38 |
| faileas | Surlent777: eh. last time i set up bitlbee... i had to build it from scratch and config it manually | 08:38 |
| Quan-Time | culinor: removes redundant packages.. its like.. cleaning your install | 08:38 |
| Ilmatic | Quick question you guys, will ubuntu 9.10 run on a intel mac? | 08:38 |
| ejv | culinor: i said no asterisk | 08:38 |
| UnknownUser56 | Alright then, thanks guys | 08:38 |
| Surlent777 | faileas: I had a tutorial from their site that I used | 08:38 |
| DaZ | Ilmatic: should. | 08:38 |
| Quan-Time | UnknownUser56: np... (im a ex winxp user.. so i know your pain) | 08:38 |
| ejv | culinor: it was a typo correction, to build off my previous statement | 08:38 |
| iflema | gumtrolium: that is.... | 08:38 |
| Quan-Time | im uploading something on my machine to the LAN.. can i find out what it is ? can i detect what files are being access or being sent out ? | 08:38 |
| gumtrolium | I got error about mount /dev/cow when I use usb to install it. | 08:39 |
| === me is now known as Guest36119 | ||
| gumtrolium | My netbook is Asus 901 EeePC | 08:39 |
| ejv | !wireshark | Quan-Time | 08:39 |
| Surlent777 | I really wonder what a /dev/cow is | 08:39 |
| culinor | ejv, i did it with asterisk, have i done any damage to my system? | 08:39 |
| * culinor is wondering | 08:39 | |
| ejv | culinor: well... what did it say it removed? | 08:40 |
| Quan-Time | ejv: eh ? | 08:40 |
| Surlent777 | I think he is telling you to install "wireshark" | 08:40 |
| gumtrolium | <iflema> I surpose that netbook remix is suitable for common netbook. | 08:40 |
| Xfact | Do anybody thinks that, problem in network device can make a computer to shut down forcefully? | 08:40 |
| Quan-Time | yer lookin now.. | 08:40 |
| ejv | Quan-Time: wireshark is a network analyzer, it can help you tell what's flowing over your network, not for the faint of heart... | 08:40 |
| Surlent777 | =D | 08:40 |
| iflema | gumtrolium: those iwth an atom cpu.... should be ok | 08:41 |
| user___ | Surlent777, same boat? when did this start occuring for you? | 08:41 |
| culinor | ejv, this is it http://paste.ubuntu.com/351673/ any bad news for me? | 08:41 |
| ejv | Quan-Time: also make sure it's YOUR network; packet inspection can be an aggresive posture on some enterprise/university networks | 08:41 |
| Surlent777 | user___: I noticed it after rebooting after trying to make Firefox use /tmp as a filesystem | 08:41 |
| === ripps|sleep is now known as ripps | ||
| gumtrolium | <iflema> yes, I think so,but my Eeepc is also atom one | 08:42 |
| Surlent777 | user___: I've heard others complain of your specific problem though, recently. What's your story? | 08:42 |
| Xfact | Do anybody thinks that, problem in network device can make a computer to shut down forcefully? | 08:43 |
| user___ | Surlent777, not entirely sure what caused it. It did happen after i ran firefox as root now i think about it ... also system stability has gone to the wall but that could be dust related. | 08:43 |
| Quan-Time | ejv: its my home network... i have wifi.. im just checkin stuff. cheers.. and i run big networks,. well, game servers on one. which is partly why i want it. (400 person LANs) | 08:43 |
| iflema | gumtrolium: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks | 08:43 |
| ejv | culinor: looking now | 08:43 |
| ejv | culinor: im not quite sure what the asterisk means to aptitude | 08:43 |
| gumtrolium | <iflema> with error: Cannot mount /dev/loop1 on /cow | 08:43 |
| ChrisW | hi all, I'm usign Exceed to run desktop apps on my remote headless linux box... the olinux apps currently have the wrong keyboard configured... is that something I need to fix on the linux box or the exceed config? | 08:43 |
| ejv | culinor: im referring to the documentation to see how it interprets the * | 08:43 |
| culinor | ejv, thank you for your assistance | 08:44 |
| _sky | the * is not meant to be put by iteself | 08:44 |
| _sky | should be unrar* | 08:44 |
| Surlent777 | _sky: should actually just be "unrar" | 08:44 |
| Surlent777 | the * was a typo-correction-indicator | 08:44 |
| _sky | or simply apt-get install rar unrar | 08:44 |
| _sky | well obviously surgy | 08:44 |
| _sky | tab fail | 08:45 |
| Surlent777 | hahaha | 08:45 |
| Surlent777 | yeah | 08:45 |
| user___ | Surlent777, did you run firefox as root? or atleast as a different user to yours? | 08:45 |
| Surlent777 | user___: nope | 08:45 |
| Surlent777 | user___: I edited sysctl.conf and /etc/fstab or something like that. I reverted the changes though =/ | 08:46 |
| ejv | culinor: documentation doesn't say much about the * in the command | 08:46 |
| Xfact | My computer is shutting down suddenly sometimes, a black screen appearing and showing some kind of warning about 'ntp network manager...' so do anybody thinks that problem in network device can shut my computer down 'suddenly'? | 08:46 |
| airtonix | ChrisW, did you mention the local OS you are using ? | 08:46 |
| Surlent777 | * is usually interpreted as "everything matching anything", isn't it? | 08:46 |
| ejv | culinor: based on what i've seen, it removed some KDE support (your desktop environment ?) I'd aptitude install those packages back. | 08:46 |
| ejv | culinor: also some xmms (music player) and some bitorrent related apps | 08:47 |
| ChrisW | airtonix: I'm running Exceed on Windows | 08:47 |
| user___ | Surlent777, problem still occur after revert? I have also recently edited fstab, that was for a usb related issue | 08:47 |
| ejv | culinor: i don't see anything vital that would make me freak out | 08:47 |
| _sky | yes, as php5-* will install everything | 08:47 |
| culinor | i see, i do not use kde, i think i can go without them | 08:47 |
| airtonix | ChrisW, any reason why your using Exceed instead of xMing ? | 08:47 |
| saica | i'm having trouble with legacy fglrx 8.593 aka catalyst 9.3 booting to a black screen. any ideas? | 08:47 |
| ejv | culinor: you could always tell by doing a reboot | 08:48 |
| Surlent777 | user___: I find all of this to be very strange. I can't imagine what in our actions would cause effects like this | 08:48 |
| ejv | culinor: and see if the system comes back up gracefully ;) | 08:48 |
| Xfact | My computer is shutting down suddenly sometimes, a black screen appearing and showing some kind of warning about 'ntp network manager...' so do anybody thinks that problem in network device can shut my computer down 'suddenly'? | 08:48 |
| culinor | thank you for your time, ejv, i will reboot now | 08:48 |
| geirha | ChrisW: Never heard of exceed, but check what keyboard layout is set in linux. System -> Preferences -> Keyboard -> [Layouts] | 08:48 |
| ejv | culinor: sure i'll be here ;) | 08:48 |
| saica | see bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/503260 | 08:48 |
| ChrisW | airtonix: you meant "you're"... but aside from that, because it's what's installed on this Windows box, and it works | 08:48 |
| user___ | Surlent777, are you 64bit? | 08:48 |
| Surlent777 | user___: yes | 08:48 |
| user___ | Surlent777, common to our problem i think. | 08:49 |
| airtonix | ChrisW, cool good luck with that then | 08:49 |
| ChrisW | geirha: how do I get that menu up? | 08:49 |
| Surlent777 | user___: I'm not sure our relative lack of address space limitations should screw up services =/ | 08:49 |
| Xfact | this is a very serious problem i am currently having :( | 08:49 |
| ChrisW | (bear in mind I don't have the full gui, onyl apps I launch...) | 08:49 |
| ChrisW | (and I don't know what the menu bar app is called ;-) ) | 08:49 |
| gumtrolium | Thanks, < iflema> | 08:49 |
| gumtrolium | anyone use EeePC 901 here? | 08:50 |
| geirha | ChrisW: gnome-keyboard-properties | 08:50 |
| airtonix | ChrisW, to get the full desktop available (assuming you are using gnome) you just run nautilus. | 08:50 |
| gumtrolium | I am sure I can use that 8.04 remix b4 with my 901 | 08:50 |
| iflema | gumtrolium: was the sarcastic? try reload'n ya usb stick again.... | 08:50 |
| ChrisW | airtonix: ran nautilus already, no menu bar | 08:50 |
| airtonix | ChrisW, then you'll need gnome-panel too | 08:50 |
| airtonix | ChrisW, nautilus without paramters should by default render a desktop view and a filemanager view. | 08:51 |
| Surlent777 | Xfact: You may just be seeing some network daemon being shut down. The problem may lie elsewhere. Try and remember if there's anything in particular you are doing when the shutdowns occur...that's all I can say | 08:51 |
| culinor | ok, i think everything runs smoothly | 08:51 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, what's mean " reload" usb? I create the iso twice and checked without error when setup. | 08:52 |
| ejv | culinor: cool ;) | 08:52 |
| Surlent777 | user___: I seem to recall a couple of people with cups issues, and one guy saying he couldn't get any, or at least a lot, of services working. Apparently a lot of us are getting adventurous...that or there's a strange bug no one's seemingly caught yet | 08:52 |
| ejv | culinor: always give the fellas here a few seconds extra, to follow up their statements, try to avoid knee-jerk reactions ;) | 08:52 |
| Darkedge | Anymore ideas? -_- | 08:52 |
| saica | Does anyone know much about the legacy fglrx driver? Particularly, the one which is not in the intrepid repos: Catalyst 9.3 | 08:52 |
| Xfact | Surlent777: the problem is here....nothing....anytime it's happens...even if my computer is idle for hours then also, .... | 08:52 |
| culinor | ejv, now i should use unrar through the terminal or not? | 08:52 |
| Xfact | Surlent777: Like iI left my computer idel with no work 3 hrs ago, and after coming back I am seeing it's turned off... | 08:53 |
| Surlent777 | culinor: You can use it via the terminal, but it also integrates into file-roller and XArchiver | 08:53 |
| ejv | culinor: exactly, pick one file in the set, example, unrar -e aaaa.r01 | 08:53 |
| culinor | yes, i don't have to run commands right away but i am still new to linux and trying to follow instructions :) | 08:53 |
| ChrisW | geirha: cool, changed the layout but hasn't changed anything, even in the "Type to test setting" box... | 08:53 |
| petsounds | gumtrolium, you get error when installing ubuntu from usb? | 08:53 |
| ejv | culinor: or what Surlent777 said, unrar is available by right clicking on an archive, and clicking "extract here" | 08:53 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, in the support list my eee 901 is supported | 08:54 |
| Xfact | I think it's serious error :( :-X | 08:54 |
| Surlent777 | Xfact: I think you're right, but I know very little about networking, aside from the basics =( | 08:54 |
| culinor | thank you guys, appreciated | 08:54 |
| iflema | gumtrolium: mmm, thats why i said try reload usb... have ya google'd away ya troubles with keywords? | 08:54 |
| gumtrolium | but I find so man people in yahoo with same problem as me.. :X | 08:54 |
| geirha | ChrisW: I just googled exceed and found it was a X11 server, so the keyboard settings on the linux box is not the issue. You'll need to configure it on the local X11 server | 08:54 |
| iflema | gumtrolium: theres a eepc room @ freenode | 08:55 |
| ChrisW | geirha: cool, thanks :-) | 08:55 |
| Surlent777 | ach, 2am...bedtime. I hope you can figure out your issues, user___ and Xfact =( | 08:55 |
| user___ | Surlent777, cheers night | 08:56 |
| Xfact | well any one else can help? :( | 08:56 |
| Xfact | My computer is shutting down suddenly sometimes, a black screen appearing and showing some kind of warning about 'ntp network manager...' so do anybody thinks that problem in network device can shut my computer down 'suddenly'? Even When it's idle for hours, then also :( | 08:57 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, may I have the room name please? | 08:57 |
| iflema | yeah lookn hang on | 08:57 |
| legend2440 | gumtrolium: #ubuntu-eeepc | 08:57 |

| gumtrolium | Thanks~ iflema | 08:59 |
| iflema | gumtrolium: and here | 08:59 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, nice~ | 09:00 |
| ChrisW | cool, fixed... now, how can I chagne what app is used to open a fiel by default? | 09:00 |
| ChrisW | (I want text files to open in eamcs, preferably in the isntance that's already running) | 09:00 |
| ejv | culinor: i think the command line unrar is more useful, it will tell you which .rar is missing in a set, if there's one that's corrupt or missing, more verbose than the GUI operation | 09:00 |
| user___ | Xfact, is there anything in the logs? | 09:00 |
| geirha | Xfact: Sounds odd. Have you checked if there is any particular messages in syslog around the time it shuts down? | 09:01 |
| ejv | culinor: to each his/her own though ;) | 09:01 |
| ardchoille | ChrisW: right click a file, Properties > Open with | 09:01 |
| culinor | oh, great, ejv, i will read the man pages, i learned a lot about unrar today :) | 09:01 |
| guntbert | ChrisW: slow down a bit on the keyboard - its getting hard to read :) | 09:01 |
| geirha | Xfact: System -> Administration -> Log viewer (or something like that), or ''less /var/log/syslog'' in a terminal | 09:01 |
| ardchoille | ChrisW: Not sure how you're going to get it to open in a running instance of emacs tho | 09:01 |
| Quan-Time | ejv: hmm.. wireshark wont detect my NIC... sorta pointless to me... ideas ? | 09:03 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, nobody response there | 09:03 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, hoho...haha. | 09:03 |
| ejv | Quan-Time: you might be doing something wrong; or your network card might not be in the correct mode; im definitely not the person to ask... wireshark is for advanced users. | 09:03 |
| ejv | Quan-Time: you may try #wireshark but you'll have to be patient, not very many idlers ;) | 09:04 |
| gumtrolium | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m63a4e054 | 09:04 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, this is my first time join this room. | 09:05 |
| guntbert | Quan-Time: you have to start wireshark with gksudo | 09:05 |
| gumtrolium | I haven't use irc for serveral years | 09:05 |
| Quan-Time | guntbert: already beat you to it.. cheers :) | 09:06 |
| guntbert | Quan-Time: nice :) | 09:06 |
| bloodski | how do i remove the annoying popup dir when inserting a usb stick for example? | 09:07 |
| gumtrolium | iflema, nice to meet you here. thanks | 09:08 |
| mneptok | bloodski: alt-f2 then type "gconf-editor" (no quotes) | 09:08 |
| bloodski | k, what will i look for then mneptok? | 09:08 |
| mneptok | bloodski: open "apps" and then "Nautilus" | 09:08 |
| mneptok | bloodski: open "preferences" and uncheck "media_automount_open" | 09:09 |
| bloodski | k | 09:09 |
| bloodski | thx | 09:09 |
| mneptok | np | 09:09 |

| hvralpha | <hvralpha> can anyone help to get my hp printer installed in kubuntu 9.10 kde 4.3.4 | 09:20 |
| guntbert | Diverdude: where? | 09:20 |

| sodipodi | Hello ppl! Plz tell me, how i can switch OFF support of dmraid from initrd?? I want to make soft-RAID maasive, but i cant do that because my HDDs busy and visible only like /dev/hdb (and not /dev/hdb1). I used old distr of OpenSUSE before, fnd now use ubuntu server and want to restore my previous radi massive with old data on it. | 11:21 |
| ziroday | MrEgg964: and I presume doing mount -a after power on mounts the drive? | 11:22 |
| MrEgg964 | ziroday: from Terminal, yes. | 11:22 |
| === verb__ is now known as verb3k | ||
| ziroday | MrEgg964: then I'm not really sure sorry | 11:23 |
| guntbert | MrEgg964: did you check if the UUID is ok? | 11:24 |
| MrEgg964 | ziroday: I was on Intrepid prior to Karmic, and using the exact same fstab I didn't have any issue :( | 11:24 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: yes I did, and it's ok. | 11:24 |
| guntbert | MrEgg964: then please pastebin the error messages | 11:24 |

| guntbert | ziroday: <MrEgg964> Hi all. With Karmic, I'm getting errors when mounting xfs partitions through fstab, although I can later manually mount the same partition in Terminal. Is anybody also having this issue? | 11:26 |
| ziroday | guntbert: I see "Hi all :) With Karmic, I can't mount my xfs partition at boot. I have to open Terminal and there manually mount the partition (and it works). What can I do to get it properly mounted at boot time ? Thanks." | 11:27 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m7deb8607 | 11:27 |
| guntbert | ziroday: that was a bit earlier | 11:27 |
| ziroday | guntbert: right :) | 11:28 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: all I can see are errors on line 7 & 8. But I'm no pro. | 11:30 |
| om26er_ | ziroday: added it to fstab? | 11:31 |
| ziroday | om26er_: ? | 11:31 |
| om26er_ | ziroday: xfs not mounting problem? | 11:31 |

| Subby | In Cups there are a lot Printer Models to choose from (CUPS+Gutenprint, some Foomatics) how do I know which to choose? | 11:31 |
| neil1 | Hey I would like to know how I can download the realtek wireless drivers for the ubuntu that comes with the eeepc 702 | 11:32 |
| neil1 | *702 | 11:32 |
| neil1 | *701 sorry | 11:32 |
| guntbert | MrEgg964: if those timestamps are seconds (as I believe) there is half an hour between line 6 and 7 | 11:32 |
| om26er_ | neil1: which version of ubuntu are you using? | 11:32 |
| Wazzzaaa | om26er: I'm now upgrading with: apt-get install update-manager-core && do-release-upgrade | 11:33 |

| Wazzzaaa | That works | 11:33 |
| neil1 | I'm trying to find out, this is my dad's laptop, it' a very scaled down version | 11:33 |
| Hunt5 | can anyone tel me pls? | 11:33 |
| achadwick | Subby: choose the one with the nearest model number and manufacturer to your priinter. If there's more than one that matches, then if one is "(recommended)" and the others aren't, choose that one. | 11:33 |
| om26er_ | Wazzzaaa: great | 11:33 |
| SwedeMike | Hunt5: what did you expect to happen when you pasted a URI into your shell? | 11:33 |
| Hunt5 | to get x264 code | 11:33 |
| Hunt5 | from git | 11:34 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: they're seconds | 11:34 |
| neil1 | om36er: what command can I run to find out what version I am running? | 11:34 |
| SwedeMike | Hunt5: the shell isn't reading your mind, you have to issue an command to use the URI with. | 11:34 |
| Subby | achadwick: there are 9 Models that begin with the exact model number of my printer, none is recommended (The printer is Brother HL-5150D) | 11:34 |
| Hunt5 | SwedeMike: what is the command? | 11:34 |
| SwedeMike | Hunt5: you can start with "man git" | 11:35 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: oops - I don't know whether they're seconds or not - Karmic boots under a minute, it does not take over an hour. | 11:35 |
| achadwick | Subby: sometimes you even get the exact same string :( http://www.openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi can be helpful for uncovering quirks. | 11:36 |
| cleinen | hello | 11:36 |
| guntbert | MrEgg964: but to the bottom of your problem - it seems to be a problem with xfs meta-data | 11:36 |
| cleinen | how are you ? | 11:36 |
| SwedeMike | Hunt5: or you can actually read the page at "http://www.videolan.org/developers/x264.html" where it says what commands to use. | 11:36 |

| Younder | I just bought 'mastering regular expressions', 'Linux administartion handbook' and 'sed and awk (2 ed.). Is that a good choice? | 11:38 |
| guntbert | Younder: only if you read them too :) | 11:38 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: there's another things that puzzles me, when reading the log. I only have 1 xfs partition. But as far as I understand, it first tries to mount sdc1 and returns an error. When I mount it manually, it mount sdd1. It's still the same partition, though. | 11:38 |
| Younder | Got it partially from http://www.linux-mag.com. | 11:39 |
| Younder | guntbert, I will. | 11:39 |
| guntbert | MrEgg964: good call - that would us point to a uuid problem - please pastebin the output of sudo blkid | 11:40 |

| guntbert | MrEgg964: strange - all seems ok - so (as a last measure - for testing) please replace in your fstab entry the UUID part with /dev/sdd1 , umount /home/fred/Videos then sudo mount -a, if that works try rebooting | 11:51 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: ok, I'm going to try that - both with sdd1 and sdc1, just for the sake of it. | 11:53 |
| protojay | also, when i try adduser, i get the same message trying to add any user | 11:53 |

| MrEgg964 | guntbert: I'm trying with sdd1 as we speak. It's rebooting. | 11:54 |
| protojay | no guntbert , and this problem has been here for over a day | 11:55 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: the thing is - how can I be confident sdc is going to stay sdc and not move around ? | 11:55 |

| Arabus | Hey, It seems that my new koala is intent on regulating the brightness of my screen. Even if I manually alter the screen brightness it keeps flipping back to a brighter state. Since this wastes about 60-90min of battery time it is quite annoying. Is there a way to disable this function? | 11:59 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: the drive is not listed in fdisk -l (I only get sda) | 11:59 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: and the error message is still refering to sdc1 in dmesg - although I did specify sdd1 in fstab | 12:00 |
| MrEgg964 | guntbert: I'm rebooting with sdc1, just for the sake of it | 12:02 |
| guntbert | MrEgg964: strange - the drive is not listed at all? I confess to be at the end of ideas | 12:04 |
| guntbert | Arabus: look at system/preferences/power management | 12:05 |

| MrEgg964 | guntbert: I'll try not mounting the xfs partition on boot at all, then manually mounting it. If that works, I suppose I can always mount it in rc.local - that wouldn't be the cleanest of all procedures, but if it works... | 12:06 |

| meway | guntbert ok done | 12:33 |

| soreau | CAiRO: Can't you just put anything in the changelog to get it to build? | 12:38 |
| guntbert | CAiRO: why don't you ask the author of the software? | 12:39 |

| CAiRO | gunni: well, because i though irc would solve my problem faster | 12:40 |
| pjoshi | it even turns off light of the flash drive.. how does ubunt turns off light of flash drive.. | 12:40 |

| guntbert | CAiRO: of course - you can always try :) | 12:41 |
| soreau | CAiRO: irc doesn't solve problems. people help other people with solutions | 12:41 |
| CAiRO | soreau: yes, i could probably make it up somehow.. but that would be wrong, the right way is to generate it from the changelog.in | 12:42 |
| CAiRO | i just don't know the commnad from those one million dh_something | 12:42 |
| Quan-Time | CAiRO: most of us have problems,, BUT we have worked thru other problems so can share wealth.. just cos we are in here helping, dont think we are "uber pro linux h4x0rZ" or somethin silly.. | 12:42 |
| soreau | CAiRO: If you get the same error when trying to build it with it's build system methods, then contact the devs of the package. If it only happens when trying to create a deb, maybe you can ask in #ubuntu-devel or make a post on ubuntuforums.org | 12:43 |

| CAiRO | soreau: well, it seems you have no idea what i'm talking about | 12:43 |
| guntbert | Quan-Time: well said | 12:43 |
| Quan-Time | speaking of which.. whats a way (program / app) to mount a .ISO file (or similar..) so its treated as a drive that i can install from.. a winxp example would be "daemon tools" ?! | 12:43 |
| pjoshi | soreau : if through command prompt if i umount flash drive it will still show light on the flash drive.. but through gui/X you get option when you right-click on the flash drive "Safely remove drive" | 12:44 |
| CAiRO | soreau: anyway, thanks though | 12:44 |
| Quan-Time | guntbert: heh.. i try my best... AND im not drunk tonight.. thats always a bonus. | 12:44 |
| pjoshi | that will umount the flash drive and also turn off the flash drive light... | 12:44 |
| guntbert | !iso | Quan-Time | 12:44 |
| ubottu | Quan-Time: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 12:44 |

| Quan-Time | guntbert: oh ffs.. i got that the same time as you.. heh.. im on a role tonight of finding stuff myself !! | 12:46 |
| fx3 | i hate to do this, but im going to retransmit: i setup crypttab so that it tries to unlock the volume with a keyfile, can i have a backup "type in password" incase the key doesnt exist? | 12:46 |
| soreau | CAiRO: dh-make ? | 12:46 |
| Quan-Time | fx3: umm.. have you read "man crypttab" ? im not sure (never tried).. maybe theres a switch for it ? | 12:47 |
| guntbert | fx3: I'd say no - because having a weak password would defy the purpose | 12:47 |
| aaron11 | How do I change the icon next to the Applications menu? | 12:48 |
| zvacet | pjoshi: look if https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive helps | 12:48 |
| fx3 | Quan-Time, i have, but i will do again. I saw on some blog that if you have two entries in crypttab for the same device it would skip the other if its mounted, but mine seems to get stuck if it doesnt find the key | 12:48 |
| fx3 | guntbert, pw is not as strong as the key, however, the password im using is strong enough for the purpose | 12:49 |
| Quan-Time | fx3: thats prolly an issue.. 2 entries.. same device... | 12:49 |
| guntbert | fx3: it was only a guess anyway | 12:49 |
| fx3 | Quan-Time, no, i mean it doesnt work with 2 entries for the same device. | 12:50 |
| === alokito_ is now known as alokito | ||
| CAiRO | soreau: hmm, i didn't have this installed, but i've tried it and it looks dh-make is meant to generate the debian directory for a source package | 12:51 |
| aaron11 | hello | 12:51 |
| CAiRO | but my source package already has that | 12:51 |
| fx3 | Quan-Time, im thinking it should have something to do with checkscripts, write a script that check whether the key is present, but then what if the key is the wrong key anyway? | 12:51 |
| soreau | pjoshi: AFAIK, umounting the drive is sufficient for safely removing it. As for the light, I suspect the gui somehow tells the light to turn off. It's probably not an issue to have the light still on | 12:51 |

| BlouBlou | !hi | jo__ | 13:40 |
| Scunizi | zer0x: try k3b.. it's pretty much the standard the others try to live up to | 13:40 |
| ubottu | jo__: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 13:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Jello | 13:40 |
| jo__ | :O | 13:40 |
| jo__ | People talk | 13:40 |
| * Dr_Willis types | 13:40 | |
| jo__ | w/e | 13:40 |
| jo__ | You mean to say you don't say everything you type 0.o | 13:41 |
| zer0x | Scunizi: Its that or the command line, I would love to avoid all those kde libs! :) | 13:41 |
| * Dr_Willis types - he dosent 'text' :) | 13:41 | |
| Dr_Willis | zer0x: ive seen burner apps with cli based ncursed interfaces. :) | 13:41 |
| jo__ | Well anywho, anyone know how I can either get Itunes on Ubuntu 9.10 or make my ipod use different software. | 13:41 |
| Dr_Willis | !ipod | jo__ | 13:41 |
| ubottu | jo__: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 13:41 |
| Scunizi | zer0x: probably lots of docs on cli burning.. kde libs fir k3b would be pretty invisible :) | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | jo__: itunes wont work with wine. So its a no go. | 13:42 |
| napster | Openoffice does not detect spelling mistakes automatically, what can I do? | 13:42 |
| zer0x | Dr_Willis: oh, anything that will create an audio cd out of mp3's? | 13:42 |
| Scunizi | !rockbox | jo__ | 13:42 |
| ubottu | jo__: rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started! | 13:42 |
| jo__ | okies ^^ | 13:42 |
| tyrosine | QUESTION >> What's a simple text editor between Gedit and OO-editor? I want to do simple things (bold, italic, pagebreaks) but don | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | zer0x: lots of apps to rip cd's - Im not sure why people expect a cd burning app to also do that. :) | 13:42 |
| tyrosine | ... but dont want the overhead of OO | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | tyrosine: try 'abiword' for a word processor thats small | 13:43 |
| Scunizi | tyrosine: abiword | 13:43 |
| === Dink|W is now known as Dink | ||
| === tPl0ch^f00d is now known as tPl0ch | ||
| tyrosine | thx Dr_Willis | 13:43 |
| BlouBlou | tyrosine: Gedit is text editor; isn't for do works or anything, just for edit simple txt files, anyway I use it for do scripts | 13:43 |
| minimec | napster: You probably have to add the dictionary-file for your preferred language. | 13:43 |
| blackxored | trying to mirror a gem repository in my ubuntu mirror (hardy), but rubygems fail with no_method for Gem.manage_gems, any clues? | 13:43 |
| zer0x | Dr_Willis: I guess, I'm just being lazy, I should really go cli :) | 13:43 |
| blackxored | please pv me as well, since I'm going bath | 13:43 |
| blackxored | :P | 13:43 |
| napster | minimec, I fixed it just now | 13:43 |
| mkanyicy | zer0x, you can use amarok on kde, rhythmbox on gnome, or checkout for something like mp3burn for commandline | 13:44 |
| napster | minimec, thanks anyway :) | 13:44 |
| minimec | napster: np | 13:44 |
| zamba | Quan-Time: do-release-upgrade does that for you, imho | 13:44 |
| zer0x | mkanyicy: yup, I think I better get mencoder on the case to convert these mp3's to wav! | 13:44 |
| mkanyicy | zer0x, ffmpeg can do that better or lame | 13:45 |
| zer0x | I can't remember the last time I used an audio cd! | 13:45 |
| zer0x | mkanyicy: I've never been able to decide between mplayer/mencoder and ffmpeg, I had great fun with ffmpeg-server a while back! | 13:46 |
| mkanyicy | zer0x, yeah, to rip an audio cd is common, but to burn one is very old news | 13:46 |
| diverse_izzue | are there people who have experience in running lucid and karmic next to each other (dual boot), sharing a home directory. does that work fine? also, does grub automatically configure itself so that both distros can be booted? | 13:46 |
| om26er | diverse_izzue: i think its simply possible | 13:47 |
| acicula | diverse_izzue: there's no reason it shouldnt work, but different program versions using the same configuration file will cause issues | 13:47 |
| mkanyicy | zer0x, mplayer has a difficult syntax for simply decoding audio files | 13:47 |
| Scunizi | diverse_izzue: you can't share a /home directory with 2 different releases.. you can however share a common /home with kde and gnome of the same release | 13:47 |
| happyaron | hi, I wounder how to convert xmls to pdf? | 13:47 |
| om26er | well that is true | 13:47 |
| zer0x | mkanyicy: You get that sense of satisfaction when you finally get it right though :) | 13:48 |
| diverse_izzue | Scunizi, I'm sure i *can*. the question is whether it's a good idea or not :-) | 13:48 |
| acicula | diverse_izzue: probably not | 13:48 |
| mkanyicy | happyaron, can you open xmls in the first place? what type of file is that? | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | diverse_izzue: it can cuase some issues if gnome/whatever use different config files/formats - Grub2 in theory should see both disrtos and add a menu items for them | 13:48 |

| happyaron | mkanyicy: docbook | 13:49 |
| Scunizi | diverse_izzue: no it's not.. because each release has different package versions and /home holds the conf files for lots of what you use.. there will be conflicts | 13:49 |
| diverse_izzue | ok, but when installing lucid as the second distro ( i have a running karmic on the machine), should i choose to install grub in the mba, or in the boot record of the partition? | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | diverse_izzue: id test out the releases in virtual box - much safer | 13:49 |
| diverse_izzue | Dr_Willis, I prefer to have it running on bare hardware, only so you can test e.g. drivers. | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | diverse_izzue: be prepared for possible massive system failure then. and you better brush up on your grub2-skills also | 13:50 |
| om26er | diverse_izzue: you can use testdrive ppa for testing lucid in a virtual machine | 13:50 |
| acicula | diverse_izzue: since you are testing lucid, put it on the local partition and use your normal grub to chainload the lucid lynx grub? | 13:50 |
| skino | hey all... right trying to load up an XP disk in Virtualbox but im gettin the following error - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m261746b5 | 13:50 |
| blackxored | trying to mirror a gem repository in my ubuntu mirror (hardy), but rubygems fail with no_method for Gem.manage_gems, any clues? | 13:50 |
| acicula | diverse_izzue: but you can just as easily utilize usb boot sticks or livecd's to test hardware compatibility | 13:50 |
| diverse_izzue | Dr_Willis, i'm not a total beginner, I've rescued a few systems :-) But thanks for the warning | 13:50 |

| trijntje | mythral, the ugly ways is rigthclick on the desktop -> background -> collor and there's a color picker :P | 14:14 |
| acicula | KarmaJones: sometimes there are debs, sometimes you have to compile the sourcecode, but your best bet is to check first if the program isnt in the ubuntu repositorys already(apt-cache , google, ubuntuforums, etc) | 14:14 |

| GrimmVarg | does anybody know where xorg.conf goes in 9.10? it doesnt seem to be read in /etc/X11/ | 14:17 |
| ripperhack | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m751e03e7 <---- convirt problem please help me | 14:17 |
| Dr_Willis | GrimmVarg: systems can run with out a xorg.conf - You could make one if you wanted to. | 14:18 |
| Scunizi | Sacho: did you have an external harddrive plugged in that you deleted a bunch of stuff off of?.. external devices have their own .trash that is tied to the system trash.. | 14:18 |
| Sacho | nah, it's there(I can even see it) | 14:18 |
| Sacho | just when I open the GUI Trash, it sits around for a while then shows an empty folder | 14:18 |
| GrimmVarg | Dr_Willis: yeah I know, but i need to whitelist my driver and the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file i made isnt being read | 14:18 |
| Sacho | and restoring it manually will be annoying as hell (: | 14:18 |
| Scunizi | Sacho: so it shows files when you open the trash or not .. I'm confused.. sounds like it looks empty but reports files.. | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | GrimmVarg: Hmm.. My xorg.conf is used here if it exists. | 14:20 |
| Dr_Willis | GrimmVarg: what video card? | 14:20 |
| minimec | GrimmVarg: If there is a xorg.conf in /etc/X11, it will be used. | 14:20 |
| Sacho | Scunizi: I looked inside the dir itself(.local/share/Trash) and there's a bunch of files. But through the GUI(gnome), when I open the trash, it "thinks" for a while, then doesn't show any files found | 14:20 |
| * Sacho will take a pic in a sec | 14:21 | |
| GrimmVarg | Dr_Willis: ok, tnx. then my problem is elsevere, Actually, i can tell that the driver is used, it just wont let me enabel compis. Its a intel card | 14:21 |
| Scunizi | Sacho: you could .. rm ~/.local/share/Trash/* .. and see if that takes care of it. | 14:21 |
| Sacho | oh but I don't want to delete it, I want to restore it ;) otherwise I would have done that | 14:22 |
| melm | hello | 14:22 |
| Scunizi | Sacho: make a folder on the desktop and .. mv ~/.local/share/Trash/* ~/Desktop/<folder> .. and see if it actually copies anything.. | 14:23 |
| melm | any one can help me ? | 14:23 |
| Dr_Willis | GrimmVarg: with intel theres a whole bunch of forum threads/wiki pages On them. :) | 14:23 |

| ror | I cry for windows, I realy do; just bought a new PC with windows 7, (for gaming). Stuck in my wireless card, and suddenly I find myself having to use the ubuntu 9.10 disc to download drivers for my network card in windows | 14:32 |
| teage | is it a real person? | 14:32 |
| petsounds | iceguru, same problem like me, try to run another browser, arora or chrome. | 14:32 |
| melm | when i try to activate the driver i get a error | 14:32 |
| teage | or a bot | 14:32 |
| minimec | GrimmVarg: There has been a lot of changes in karmic --> Xserver with kms for Intel/ATI Cards. | 14:32 |
| LA-Snow | i like chrome myself | 14:32 |
| ror | why is it that windows still can't get devices to work, whereas even what's effectively a live-disc it all works out the box in ubuntu :/ | 14:32 |
| epinky | melm: can you post it(your error)? | 14:33 |
| iceguru | I want the opera browser but the adobe plugin is messed up or I dont know how to do it | 14:33 |
| LA-Snow | can anyone give me their opinions on the differences between Gnome and KDE? i can't decide | 14:33 |
| GrimmVarg | minimec: yeah, I found his fix on a ubutnu help page providing a new fix that i used, but i still cant enable compis.. so i guess ill just have ot setle for this until intel get their shit straight | 14:33 |
| defrysk | LA-Snow, try both and make up your mind | 14:34 |
| LA-Snow | defrysk: i did and i like em both. it's frustrating. i think KDE looks better but also looks more difficult to learn how to use | 14:34 |

| === bleah is now known as jh | ||
| mkanyicy | LA-Snow, gnome is simple and more stable, kde is full of features and *sometimes* buggy | 14:35 |
| LA-Snow | defrysk: is that because this channel is mainly for gnome? | 14:35 |
| minimec | GrimmVarg: You could try to disable kms once. I don't know if that helps... I think kms is enabled by default for Intel cards in Karmic. For ATI Cards it is disabled.. | 14:35 |
| zer0x | iceguru: regarding the lag, you don't happen to be using 9.04 and an intel GFX card do you? | 14:35 |

| joaopinto | seanbright, yes, but I believe it also requires some change at the gdm level | 14:38 |
| airstrike | how can i make wine apps use my gnome theme? | 14:38 |
| joaopinto | since on karmic gdm does not load a xsession by default | 14:38 |
| Dr_Willis | airstrike: Hmm.. short answer.. You dont. I think.. perhaps ask in #winehq | 14:38 |
| seanbright | joaopinto: right. i'm trying to determine the "karmic way." the less intrusive the better. | 14:38 |
| airstrike | Dr_Willis: i was under the impression that someone managed to do it.. i must have read something on it but forgot to bookmark. thanks for the # info tho | 14:39 |
| joaopinto | seanbright, the regular way was just to add a .xsesion file, as described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CustomXSession | 14:39 |
| Dr_Willis | airstrike: ive never seen it done. | 14:39 |
| minimec | airstrike: I guess you have to install a similar WinXP theme in wine... | 14:39 |
| joaopinto | but since karmic gdm does not honor the .xsession, you will need to setup a Xsession option on gdm | 14:39 |
| mkanyicy | airstrike, me neither (nor even interested) | 14:39 |

| Guest74488 | anyone have an idea why i would get the error 'warning: all config files need .conf /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it will be ignorged in a future release" I checked and the blacklist file is a .conf file | 15:03 |
| elspru | hey is there an extras package for developers? | 15:03 |
| acicula | Guest74488: rename blacklist to blacklist.conf | 15:03 |
| sixtila | pexy_ would restarting help? | 15:03 |
| llutz | Guest74488: it's a warnin, no error | 15:03 |
| Guest74488 | it is named blacklist.conf | 15:04 |
| pexy_ | sixtila: no, it has been for several days | 15:04 |
| acicula | Guest74488: er my bad , reading 101, where is the blacklist.conf file placed? | 15:04 |
| Guest74488 | /etc/modprobe.d | 15:05 |
| livingdaylight | hallo | 15:05 |
| livingdaylight | ja, also was brauche ich um .mkv files zu spielen? | 15:05 |
| sixtila | pexy_ u can try one thing, put the live cd, go up to the point where it asks ur keyboard layout - do some typing test there and see if that worked - | 15:05 |

| Guest74488 | what would make a blacklist and blacklist~ file in /etc/modprobe.d | 15:05 |
| sixtila | pexy_ if that didnt work there also, maybe ur problem is somewhat deep (of which i m not sure) | 15:05 |

| livingdaylight | LukeL, what is better windows7 or koalic karma? | 15:06 |
| Guest74488 | so I need to rm the blacklist and blacklist~ | 15:06 |
| acicula | Guest74488: well gedit just adds the ~ after a file thats being edited | 15:06 |
| faileas | livingdaylight: its really subjective | 15:06 |
| CP4MX | rintards | 15:06 |
| acicula | Guest74488: if you have a blacklist.conf with the same content yeah | 15:06 |
| * faileas uses both | 15:06 | |
| livingdaylight | faileas, are you sure? | 15:07 |
| Guest74488 | I edited the blacklist file and I know I saved it so why would I have a temp file for blacklist | 15:07 |
| Guest74488 | if the file was saved | 15:07 |
| faileas | livingdaylight: that its subjective? definately | 15:07 |
| livingdaylight | faileas, totem plays audio off my mkv file but not the video part - i get one still frame every 30seconds | 15:08 |
| faileas | hmm | 15:08 |
| livingdaylight | faileas, i imagine more things 'just work' with windows... linux is more for people who don't mind 'fail' and like compiling kernels | 15:09 |
| faileas | livingdaylight: what's your ram usage like during this time? | 15:09 |
| faileas | livingdaylight: i haven't needed to compile too many things in my time using this os | 15:09 |
| livingdaylight | faileas, i have 2.5 gb ram and only have chrome and xchat open besides totem | 15:09 |
| faileas | ok | 15:09 |
| erUSUL | livingdaylight: compiling your own kernels is so past millenium... ;P | 15:10 |
| faileas | and how does it play on other players? VLC for example | 15:10 |

| BluesKaj | !password | Shwack | 15:21 |
| ubottu | Shwack: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 15:21 |
| LewisDre4m | thatl be a yes then? | 15:21 |
| conflix | LewisDre4m: works good for me | 15:21 |
| minimec | Shwack: What you didby doing sudo passwd, was to set a root password. Login with your old password, as you did not change the password for your default user. | 15:21 |
| mkanyicy | antlarr, udev does automounting, so you rather tweak udev settings | 15:21 |

| pARAd0X85 | I want to change init-level in ubuntu to 3 (stop X Server) how can I do that on 9.10 ? | 15:34 |
| erUSUL | fastPutty: it is not for the correct version of the file ? | 15:34 |
| acicula | pARAd0X85: in a console init 3 | 15:34 |
| airtonix | marcusb, a breif use of apt-cache search will reveal some for ou | 15:34 |
| pARAd0X85 | acicula: didn't work | 15:35 |

| erUSUL | !runlevels | acicula | 15:35 |
| ubottu | acicula: 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. | 15:35 |

| marcusb | grawity: I am not stupid, but looking at 585 packages isn't going to help | 15:38 |
| Shwack | minimec - The username is the same when i enter password | 15:38 |
| airtonix | marcusb, ah yes i missed that.. but yes pipe it to grep to further refine the search | 15:38 |
| marcusb | here is the thing: I suspect that there is a bug somewhere, and I can debug that | 15:38 |
| marcusb | but I need to know how it is supposed to work | 15:38 |

| pyramid | hi, normally using a switch with a lan, there are internal addresses such as 192.168, retreived by ifconfig, but now with an wlan switch i dont seem to have such an internal address....i want another computer access my webserver internally, such as i can give it a domain name by myself | 15:39 |
| Shwack | erUSUL - i will try and be back in a few minutes - thank you | 15:39 |
| Guest15240 | 0erHeks: I don't understand your question. sorry. | 15:40 |
| mediaprodigy | airtonix: will have to look at the bit version when i get home.. what is the best way to determine this if the os is already installed. | 15:40 |
| airtonix | mediaprodigy, there is a command or a gui you can loko at that tells you. i think the cli is : lsb_release or something | 15:41 |
| Guest15240 | 0erHeks: in alsamixer, all sliders are set to maximum | 15:41 |

| airtonix | pARAd0X85, something wrong with your install then | 15:46 |

| MohammadRR | can help me ? | 15:57 |

| georgij_ | Hi when drawing in Gimp the mouse movements are TERRIBLE when drawing a line it becomes distorted | 15:58 |
| matze | yes i have a book... youre to fast... thanks and sorry, good bye | 15:58 |
| georgij_ | This does not happend in Windows when using photoshop | 15:58 |
| mkanyicy | dtolj, paste output of "lspci | grep -i wireless" | 15:58 |
| bishop | joining | 15:58 |
| georgij_ | This must have something todo with the mouse am I correct? | 15:58 |
| dksays | georgij_ use path tool to draw a line its easy | 15:58 |
| airtonix | pyramid, ok, so nothing has actually changed. the switch never hands out ip address. first you need to check the web interface of your adsl device and determine if it is set tohand out internal ip address via dhcp mode | 15:59 |
| georgij_ | some kind of mouse configurations are set stupidly? | 15:59 |
| _eMaX_1 | hi all | 15:59 |
| === mediaprodigy is now known as mp_away | ||
| dksays | georgij_, use path tool to draw a line its easy :) | 15:59 |
| georgij_ | dksays: Well I dont have to do that in windows and I cant use Path Tool when digital drawing can I? | 15:59 |
| mkanyicy | Shwack, at what stage does that error appear? at boot time or after the GDM login screen had appeared? | 15:59 |
| _eMaX_1 | is there any utility that allows to change or display wav soundfiles so that instead of viewing them with times relative to their beginning, with times relative to a given timestamp? E.g., I record a 10 hours wav file starting at 23:00, and I don't want it's display to start with 00:00 but 23:00. | 16:00 |
| pyramid | ok ty airtonix, i will take a look =) | 16:00 |
| Shwack | mkanyicy: Right after the GDM login screen - I enter password and it accepts it - the errors show just before desktop would show | 16:00 |
| georgij_ | how can I lower my DPI that may work? | 16:00 |
| minimec | mkanyicy: Shwack has login problems. We guess, that his .ICEauthority file has wrong permissions. He says, that he doesn't even have a .ICEauthority file in his user directory. | 16:00 |
| dksays | georgij_, i thought u r trying simple lines | 16:00 |
| georgij_ | xset m 1 1 Is it possible to make it lower than 1 1? | 16:01 |
| Shwack | minimec: I didnt say I dont have it - I said it can't find it... most likely because libecryptfs wont load - keyctl_search: requried key not available. | 16:01 |
| airtonix | pyramid, i assume you know the lan ip address of your adsl modem ? have you set that as your gateway in network preferences ? | 16:01 |
| dtolj | mkanyicy: there is no output but lspci also returns this : http://pastebin.com/,75300e03 | 16:01 |
| georgij_ | dksays: I wouldnt go so far to ask in her just to draw a simple line I want to draw things that takes hours with brush tool | 16:01 |
| dooglus_ | is there some way I can find out how much space a directory takes up on disk? | 16:01 |
| dtolj | mkanyicy: sorry http://pastebin.com/m75300e03 | 16:01 |
| mkanyicy | Shwack, minimec what about using "sudo passwd shwack" and reset the password back to the old one? | 16:01 |
| Shwack | mkanyicy: I will try that - but I also need to set root password back to what it was as default | 16:02 |
| pyramid | airtonix i have the guide that..but as for this ubuntu instance it found the wlan by itself | 16:02 |
| Shwack | mkanyicy: can you tell me how to set root password back to default? | 16:02 |
| llutz | dooglus_: du -sh directory | 16:02 |
| dooglus_ | Shwack: "sudo passwd -l" | 16:02 |
| Shwack | dooglus_: thx | 16:02 |
| airtonix | pyramid, you want to open up the webserver to the internet correct ? | 16:02 |
| dooglus_ | llutz: it doesn't work: $ du -sh foo | 16:02 |
| dooglus_ | 19Mfoo | 16:02 |
| minimec | mkanyicy: Shwack: I guess he tried that... That would have been my first reaction... | 16:02 |
| dksays | georgij_ sorry i m not familiar with digital drawing | 16:02 |
| mkanyicy | dtolj, the atheros cards are nasty when it comes to ad-hoc wifi, are you using karmic? | 16:03 |
| dooglus_ | llutz: it tells me "19M", but the directory contains three files, each over 100M | 16:03 |
| llutz | dooglus_: what folder? | 16:03 |
| feed_me_seymour | Ubuntu /part | 16:03 |
| feed_me_seymour | whoops | 16:03 |
| dooglus_ | llutz: ~/Notes/foo | 16:03 |
| Shwack | minimec: and mkanyicy yes I did try taht but not setting root passowrd back to default at hte same time - I will try all this and be back - /crosses fingers. i really want my computer back! | 16:03 |
| airtonix | pyramid, then on your adsl modem you'll need to 1) port forward port 80 to your web server machine 2) open up port 80 on your web server machines firewall | 16:03 |
| dtolj | mkanyicy: yes Karamic on my eee-pc | 16:03 |
| pyramid | airtonix, no the web server is already reaching outside, but i want to set the domain internally. for the internal network to use a domain name that has not yet been activated on the internet | 16:04 |
| mkanyicy | dtolj, in old ubuntu you had to reload the ath_pci module and autocreate the ad-hoc mode or else install the madwifi-tools package, but now in karmic and the likes i heard that things are different | 16:04 |
| dooglus_ | llutz: I was wondering if maybe the file was 'sparse', so I gzipped it. it didn't get much smaller (still over 100M) and du on the zipped file shows '0' | 16:04 |
| airtonix | pyramid, ok so you know your lan ip address for the web server machine ? | 16:04 |
| pyramid | no airtonix that is what i couldnt find | 16:04 |
| mkanyicy | Shwack, did you set the root password as well? | 16:04 |
| dooglus_ | llutz: see here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/351842/ | 16:05 |
| dtolj | mkanyicy: saw another post to create a new interface like so: wlanconfig ath1 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode monitor but I dont have the wlanconfig program | 16:05 |
| chanux | localtime package is not on ubuntu and not even on package list. Where I can get it from? | 16:05 |
| airtonix | pyramid, and ifconfig doesn't show it ? you can either : 1) look in the dhcp lease list of your adsl modem or 2) look in the network config tool properties on your gnome panel of the webserver(assuming it is running a gui) | 16:05 |
| mkanyicy | dtolj, that is part of madwifi-tools | 16:06 |
| dooglus_ | chanux: tzdata contains /usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime - what are you looking for? | 16:06 |
| airtonix | pyramid, this is assuming you did not manually set a static lan ip and then manually set the lan ip address of your adsl modem as the gateway for the machine running the web server | 16:07 |
| mkanyicy | dtolj, I am not using karmic, confirm this with people using karmic how it is done | 16:07 |
| chanux | dooglus_, there's a package called localtime | 16:07 |
| ljamisonii | hello all..I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on a laptop, and power settings are set for Ubuntu to Suspend when the lid is closed.

| BluesKaj | llutz, have you installed handbrake from the ppa you mentioned ? It doesn't seem to be there . | 16:07 |
| dooglus_ | chanux: what is it? | 16:08 |
| yq | Why do I get this Filesystem checks are in progress dialogue every time I boot Ubuntu 9.10 pretty much? I always cancel it because it takes far too long. What is the purpose of this? Can you disable it permanently? Is it a good idea? I've never encountered anything like this in any other Linux before. Only 36 hits on Google ;( | 16:08 |
| llutz | BluesKaj: yes i have, but i'm still using jaunty | 16:08 |
| dooglus_ | chanux: what does it offer? is there some program in it you're missing? or what? | 16:08 |
| minimec | yq: That's why it always starts again. ;) | 16:08 |
| llutz | BluesKaj: https://launchpad.net/~handbrake-ubuntu/+archive/ppa | 16:08 |
| airtonix | yq, it'll keep happening because 1) you force shutdown the computer 2) you keep skipping it | 16:08 |
| yq | minimec I read that it does that every 30 mounts - but how do you disable it? | 16:08 |
| chanux | dooglus_, http://linux.die.net/man/3/localtime need it for an assignment :) | 16:09 |
| yq | "force shutdown"? I always use the regular gnome shutdown GUI | 16:09 |
| minimec | yq: That chack runs every 30 mounts or so... You can disable it in /etc/fstab. Search the net for that. | 16:09 |
| squircle | hi everybody; does anybody know why aptitude wouldn't be upgrading my rsyslog from 4.2.0-2ubuntu5 to 4.2.0-2ubuntu5.1, even though the latter package is in karmic-updates? I need it to be able to install rsyslog-mysql. is this a temporary thing? | 16:09 |
| airtonix | yq, why would you want to ? but you can get around it by hibernating instead of shutting down | 16:09 |
| yq | It's not like I push the power button or anything | 16:09 |
| dooglus_ | chanux: just install build-essential and you'll have it | 16:09 |
| dooglus_ | !info build-essential | 16:09 |

| Hilikus | i'm using ubuntu 9.10 and PA 0.9.19. whenever there's a new sound adter like 2 or 3 seconds i ALWAYS get a crackling short sound before the real sound is played. the crackling is really short and loud. i'm using 6 channel surround | 16:09 |
| Hilikus | also, the sound is really low and there's like a rattle in the background. this one gets fixed if i go to alsamixer and move any of the controls, just decrease the volume and then increase it again and it fixes it | 16:10 |
| yq | airtonix: Because it increases my boot time from 40 seconds to 18 minutes? :/ | 16:10 |

| ghabit | Hello. I have rebooted and ubuntu will not start more. It stalled while booting on init: udevtrigger man proess (451) terminated with status 1 | 16:10 |
| Hilikus | are these known bugs? any idea how to fix them? | 16:10 |
| llutz | yq: use "tune2fs -i 0 -c 0 /dev/sdXY" to disable it completely or set other values you like | 16:10 |
| yq | Thanks | 16:10 |
| ghabit | And post-stop proess terminated with status 1 | 16:10 |
| airtonix | yq, common sense would indicate that there is something wrong with your drive or the way ubuntu is shutting down | 16:10 |
| dooglus_ | chanux: if you want to be able to 'man localtime', install package manpages-dev | 16:10 |
| ghabit | I cannot boot any more, help please. | 16:10 |
| airtonix | yq, but again : if you want to dance with a dying hard drive, just hibernate | 16:11 |
| airtonix | yq, i don't recommend it (you should let it do its thing when you have time or run fsck on it manually) | 16:12 |
| chanux | dooglus_, build-essential is already installed :-S | 16:12 |

| nahs | Ubuntu Software Center is ugly :/ | 16:15 |
| nahs | I want my add or remove back. | 16:15 |
| airtonix | nahs, install the old one then | 16:15 |
| dtolj | mkanyicy: thanks | 16:16 |
| Anthony | hi, I have a problem with my wireless network, can anyone help? It works fine, for a while, then randomly stops working after a while | 16:16 |
| nahs | airtonix: I'm thinking more of making the Ubuntu Software Center more flexible | 16:16 |
| SirBlargh | my NFS clients are complaining that the NFS server is not responding, but rpcinfo -p file-server seems to be correct | 16:17 |
| mkanyicy | yq, but this does not happen all the time unless you reboot all the time | 16:17 |
| SirBlargh | Additionally I can ssh into the file server and scp large files around | 16:17 |
| yq | mkanyicy I reboot every day | 16:18 |
| SirBlargh | Furthermore I can samba share directories left and right, no problem | 16:18 |
| yq | I never use hibernate tbh | 16:18 |
| bishop | leaving...bbak | 16:18 |
| SirBlargh | but NFS seems to die very quickly once a file is accessed | 16:18 |
| mkanyicy | yq, and besides, disabling this imposes a health threat to your HDD | 16:18 |
| SirBlargh | no error messages on the server side | 16:18 |
| SirBlargh | only the client complains about the server being un-responsive | 16:18 |
| SirBlargh | any ideas? | 16:18 |
| mkanyicy | yq, if you are not aware having a disk failure in a long term then go ahead | 16:18 |
| nahs | There's this little bug I've got on two computers that has to do with mouse lagging while copying text in a certain way, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/503041 please check it out I want to make sure I'm not the only one with the problem. | 16:19 |
| yq | mkanyicy I've never heard of any OS doing this | 16:19 |
| mkanyicy | yq, doing what? | 16:19 |
| haresh | how to mount this /dev/sdb1 * 1 4982 40017883+ 7 HPFS/NTFS | 16:19 |
| mkanyicy | yq, linux does this and is an OS | 16:19 |
| yq | Doing 15 min "filesystem checks" on a regular basis | 16:19 |
| yq | Hmm none of my Debian boxes did this | 16:20 |
| mkanyicy | yq, id does not have to 15min it depends on the size of partitions and the usage and level of fragmentation | 16:20 |
| yq | But then again I've only booted them 2-3 times so far | 16:20 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, i assume you have tested (from the nfs server) mounting the nfs exports locally | 16:20 |
| SirBlargh | actually no i haven't, let me give that a shot | 16:20 |
| llutz | yq: problem is that fsck on ext2/3 takes ages, ext4 checks are much faster (afaik) | 16:21 |
| mkanyicy | yq, it is also about times between checks | 16:21 |
| minimec | yq: Found something that might interest you... http://blog.dipinkrishna.info/2008/11/ubuntu-30-mount-check-annoyance.html | 16:22 |
| mkanyicy | yq, llutz I don't think lack of patience should be used as a motivation to put the hdd into risk of permanent failure in the long term | 16:22 |
| haresh | how to mount this /dev/sdb1 * 1 4982 40017883+ 7 HPFS/NTFS | 16:22 |
| alabd | Is there any manual/doc that describes how to configure vsftpd with PAM ? | 16:22 |
| llutz | mkanyicy: i disagree, there are other means to detect dying hardware | 16:22 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, my assumption is that a local loopback test will eliminate your new lan card | 16:22 |
| mkanyicy | yq, anyway you can use tune2fs with the syntax llutz gave it to you if you decide to go ahead, but be aware what you are making | 16:23 |
| nowthatsamatt | Is there any way to make the browser bar display: www.domain.com/domain instead of www.domain.com as the default url? | 16:23 |

| mkanyicy | llutz, like? | 16:23 |
| llutz | mkanyicy: those regular fsck and aswell that stupid "5% root-reserved" things came from ancient times | 16:23 |

| haven489 | hey guys, Is there a manuscritp edditing software for ubuntu that is free? I'm not talking about abiword or Openoffice but somthig other then them, something to eddit manuscripts that follow publishing laws | 16:24 |
| mkanyicy | llutz, exactly!, if regular fsck is disabled then you are compromizing your hdd health | 16:24 |
| blakkheim | haven489: what's wrong with those two? | 16:24 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, just mounted it locally on the server and copied a large file to /tmp without a problem | 16:24 |
| steven_ | Evolution-data-server-2.28 is wanting to access the password for 'Desktop Couch User authentication' in the default keyring. What should I do? | 16:24 |

| blakkheim | meanburrito920_: ffmpeg | 16:24 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, i've had this problem before...trying to remember what i did | 16:24 |
| om26er | meanburrito920_: try winff | 16:24 |
| _scavenger_ | steven_: Allow it to, I think. Evolution-data-server is safe. | 16:24 |
| bhuvi | my jaunty laptop suspends when im working!! | 16:25 |
| mkanyicy | llutz, maybe read "man tune2fs" in detail this time | 16:25 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, just decided to use samba instead? ;) | 16:25 |
| chanux | dooglus_, Sorry for being dumb. It took sometime for me to realize the localtime problem. thanx for helping :) | 16:25 |
| minimec | bhuvi: Check your screensaver settings... | 16:25 |
| haven489 | blakkheim: they will do the job for essays and regular documents, but i am wrighting a book and need to have it eddited so that is looks at the words i am using and sees if i have used them to much or have major errors with paragrah placing | 16:25 |
| yq | Oh, Debian still uses ext3 eh? | 16:26 |
| lotus | Hey, I want to install grub to a usb drive. If the grub is going to boot a 32bit machine, is it still okay to install the grub from a 64bit machine? | 16:26 |
| yq | Ubuntu has moved on to ext4 | 16:26 |
| blakkheim | haven489: "wrighting", "eddited" "paragrah" i guess you do need editing :s | 16:26 |
| yq | At least by default | 16:26 |
| yq | Obviously you can use whatever you want in the end | 16:26 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, no. some reason i think it was to do with either : kernel, server parameters, or permissions | 16:26 |
| steven_ | Why use ext4 instead of ext3? | 16:26 |
| bhuvi | minimec , i disabled the screen saver | 16:26 |
| haven489 | blakkheim: its like "pros-pros" thats what i need but free | 16:27 |
| bhuvi | minimec, i disabled the screen saver | 16:27 |
| om26er | steven_: why not? | 16:27 |
| SirBlargh | ok, re: permissions, I'm confident that's correct because it was working prior to the hardware change | 16:27 |
| SirBlargh | and my user IDs match on both systems | 16:27 |
| Shwack | Ok - I need serious help - I changed my Ubuntu password with sudo passwd shwack as suggested by many people in this room. After restarting computer, I can no longer login.

| Shwack | Pici I already have tried sudo chwon shwack:shwack /home/shwack/.ICEauthority I will try it with shwack instead of shwack:shwack and be back in a bit | 16:30 |
| mkanyicy | om26er, are you sure that will work? | 16:30 |
| Pici | Shwack: The command name is 'chown' | 16:30 |
| bhuvi | minimec, it happens always and my laptop doesnt seem 2 respect me | 16:30 |

| ingerashu | i have installed cairo dock | 16:31 |
| om26er | mkanyicy: wokred before | 16:31 |
| mkanyicy | ok om26er here we go | 16:31 |
| ingerashu | and my processor usage is about 90%-100% | 16:31 |
| mmcji | have server back up and running, but still nothing in /var/log to indicate what that problem was. lol perhaps that it does not like the cold. the room it was in was down to 20F. Not sure why that would cause a problem, but it sure was locking up. | 16:31 |
| ingerashu | when i close it its about 10-20% | 16:31 |
| ingerashu | can someone tell me what to do? | 16:31 |
| elspru | is there an arm assembler for ubuntu? | 16:31 |
| mkanyicy | om26er, use gparted to resize and create a big enough partiton to dedicate it to /boot | 16:31 |
| blakkheim | ingerashu: uninstall it | 16:31 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, so to recap 1) you installed a new kernel essentially. 2) you therfore updated and installed new version of nfs-kernel-server ? | 16:32 |
| om26er | ok | 16:32 |
| haven489 | petsounds: ty | 16:32 |
| DrDamnit | How do I get a service to autostart. i.e., sshd? | 16:32 |
| petsounds | haven489, you're welcome | 16:32 |
| haresh | please some one help me i got alot of impt doc inside | 16:32 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, well initially i didn't install a new kernel, but it certainly loaded different modules for all of the new hardware | 16:32 |
| bhuvi | minimec, 2 me too! | 16:32 |
| mkanyicy | om26er, and boot on liveCD and copy the /boot files to that partition and create the mount line in /etc/fstab for /boot | 16:32 |
| blakkheim | DrDamnit: when you install it, it gets auto-added (i don't like this personally) but you can use something like rcconf to add it later on | 16:32 |
| steven_ | What does localhost show up as my source and destination under firestarter in active connections? | 16:33 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, and eventually I did upgrade the kernel, and nfs-kernel-server nfs-common and portmapper packages | 16:33 |
| minimec | bhuvi: only running on battery power or also with electric power? | 16:33 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, sorry i misread, did you say you installed new version of ubuntu or just moved the old hard drive to a new machine ? | 16:33 |
| DrDamnit | blakkheim: will rcconf allow me to change other services that start at startup? | 16:33 |
| om26er | mkanyicy: without UUID in fstab? | 16:33 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, just moved the hard drive | 16:33 |
| blakkheim | DrDamnit: yes | 16:33 |
| mkanyicy | with UUID in fstab of course om26er | 16:33 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, ah yes did you take a look at portmap... i think my issue a while ago was to do with portmap | 16:33 |
| DrDamnit | Thanks! | 16:33 |
| Shwack | Pici: It returns no such file or directory | 16:34 |
| om26er | mkanyicy: then? | 16:34 |
| petsounds | ingerashu, may i recommend you gnome-do? | 16:34 |
| mkanyicy | om26er, thats all | 16:34 |
| om26er | mkanyicy: grub? | 16:34 |
| bmm | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs doe not mention "needs-packaging" bugs, how should I handle those? | 16:34 |
| SirBlargh | yeah, even once the client says the server is unresponsive, rpcinfo still connects to the server and shows all of the required processes as being running | 16:34 |
| triple_x | minimec read this post and many more similar problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/44058 | 16:34 |
| bhuvi | minimec, it happens both when on batt and also on ac power,it just suspends after a fixed amount of time no matter i work with it or not | 16:34 |
| squircle | is there any way to force aptitude to upgrade a package? my rsyslog isn't updating, and I need it to (to install rsyslog-mysql) | 16:34 |
| blakkheim | squircle: aptitude dist-upgrade? | 16:35 |
| mkanyicy | om26er, ahaaa! grub! but you said it worked before, how did you do it? | 16:35 |

First I tried to install from a usb, but it kept running into errors after the first menu. So I decided to just burn and iso. I could get to the loading screen (with the ubuntu sign in the middle of the screen) It would wait for a while. Then the... | 16:35 |

| Krytain | ...screen would go blank, and my monitor would say | 16:35 |
| jelly-bean | where are the gnome appearance settings saved for an individual user? (e.g. the transparency of their panels, their background image, etc.) | 16:35 |
| Krytain | ""Out of range" | 16:35 |
| alabd | how to call vsftpd via a domain/user ? those users that have access , where to enter password for accessing ? | 16:35 |
| Shwack | Pici: I think it does, but i cannot view because libecryptfs won't run - I get keyctl_search: requried key not available when logging in via terminal command. When I CD /home/shwack/ and ls -a all it shows is somethign to do with libecryptfs | 16:35 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, great, thank you for that... | 16:36 |
| ChogyDan | jelly-bean: probably somewhere in the gconf databasey thingy | 16:36 |
| om26er | mkanyicy: it worked before meant that when i installed before and made a /boot during install..(but this time ubiquity is crashing) | 16:36 |
| jelly-bean | in what file are the gnome appearance settings saved for an individual user? (e.g. the transparency of their panels, their background image, etc.) | 16:36 |
| squircle | blakkheim and llutz: both of those do nothing. basically, i need 4.2.0-2ubuntu5 to upgrade to 4.2.0-2ubuntu5.1 (which packages.ubuntu.com says is in karmic-updates) to satisfy rsyslog-mysql 4.2.0-2ubuntu5.1. | 16:36 |
| Pici | Shwack: I'm sorry, I have no experience with encrypted filesystems, so I'm afraid I cannot help. :/ | 16:36 |
| blakkheim | squircle: aptitude full-upgrade? | 16:36 |
| llutz | squircle: "apt-cache policy rsyslog" | 16:36 |
| Shwack | Pici thanks anyway - i had no idea my system was encrypted. | 16:37 |
| acicula | Shwack: its under .Private in your home | 16:37 |
| Shwack | This is so horrible.... all I wanted to do was change my password and everybody in this room said "sudo passwd shwack" so I used it and now my entire computer is crap | 16:37 |
| mkanyicy | om26er, I don't know about grub2, it is very moody | 16:37 |
| acicula | still need the key to decrypt it though | 16:37 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, one interesting thing from that thread is this "After an indeterminate amount of time and/or activity, the [lockd] process on the server goes from S state to D state" | 16:37 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, I should see if that's the case for me as well | 16:37 |
| airtonix | jelly-bean, in gconf (which is either accessed by using "gconf-editor" or manually editing the xml files in ~/.gconf then restarting gconf) | 16:38 |

| squircle | blakkheim: doesn't work | 16:38 |
| Shwack | acicula: what exactly is under .Private in home... and how do I just go back to how things were before I ran sudo passwd? | 16:38 |
| squircle | llutz: http://p.linode.com/3367 | 16:38 |
| llutz | squircle: have you run "aptitude update" before? | 16:38 |
| squircle | llutz: about 10 times the past 5 minutes trying to solve this issue | 16:39 |
| bean | Shwack: what is broken by you running sudo passwd? | 16:39 |
| acicula | Shwack: your encrypted home directory | 16:39 |
| Shwack | bean: I used it and after restarting computer I can't login | 16:39 |
| bean | odd. | 16:39 |
| llutz | squircle: then you have to change your repos, in your activated repos only the old version is available | 16:39 |
| bean | Shwack: try ur old passwd? :P | 16:39 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, there is a variance though | 16:39 |
| Shwack | bean yes and extremely upsetting | 16:39 |
| acicula | Schwack im not really up to speed on the system, but your password is linked to being able to decrypt it all | 16:40 |
| Shwack | bean yes i set my old password back | 16:40 |
| bhuvi | triple_x,minimec, that one's a different issue it's about laptop not suspending and in my case i cannot prevent my laptop from suspending | 16:40 |
| kleanchap | I am going to install ubuntu for the first time. Will Ubuntu discover the wlan interface and try to connect or do I need to connect to the eth0 interface for the first time? | 16:40 |
| minimec | bhuvi: I agree with you, but still check the settings of gnome-power-manager | 16:40 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, the error message they are talking about is lockd: server not resopnding as compared to mine which is nfs: server not responding | 16:40 |
| Shwack | acicula - it tells me to run libecryptfs-private-mount and i do and it asks for my password, I type it in and it accepts...then it asks me for a passphrase which I do not know...never set, and cannot find. | 16:40 |
| zaggynl | hi, I'm trying to boot from the 9.10 livecd but get error 22, what gives? | 16:40 |
| airtonix | kleanchap, when you say wlan interface what do you mean? (adsl modem for example ? ) | 16:40 |
| acicula | Schwack try enter | 16:41 |
| zaggynl | "grub loading, please wait...\n Error 22" | 16:41 |
| Shwack | acicula i did | 16:41 |
| squircle | llutz: i have the karmic-updates repository activated and i'm receiving other updates as normal thought | 16:41 |
| grawity | Shwack: ...Tried changing it back the same way? | 16:41 |
| SirBlargh | airtonix, still I will try their tip to enable debugging and see if its still valid | 16:41 |
| Shwack | acicula: i tried entering nothing | 16:41 |
| llutz | squircle: http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/karmic/rsyslog | 16:41 |
| Shwack | grawity: I tried changing it back teh same way - nothing | 16:41 |
| airtonix | SirBlargh, at least you'll get more info | 16:41 |
| kleanchap | airtonix, yes. It is a DSL modem. | 16:41 |
| acicula | Shwack: when you install ubuntu with encryption you are asked for a passphrase and notified afterwards on how to backup the key | 16:41 |
| DrDamnit | kleanchap: It will probably discover it no worries as long as it is a kernel supported card. However, I would install using a hard nic. If you realy want to use the wlan, then boot with the LiveCD, and install from there. | 16:41 |
| acicula | Shwack: then you or someone else set a passphrase? | 16:41 |
| Shwack | acicula - do not remember setting the encryption and was never asked a passphrase | 16:41 |
| llutz | squircle: oh sorry, updates. there is 5.1 | 16:41 |
| Shwack | acicula - clean install 9.10 | 16:42 |
| acicula | Shwack: its asked when you install | 16:42 |
| squircle | llutz: and that's why i'm confused | 16:42 |
| Shwack | acicula - i just installed and was never asked a pass"phrase" only a password | 16:42 |
| edlima | Hi all! How can I connect to another room? | 16:42 |

| Krytain | So, I looked on the forums at ubuntu.com, and was trying to find a solution, but didn't see anything. I have been trying to install ubuntu 9.10. First I tried to install from a usb, but it kept running into errors after the first menu. So I decided to just burn and iso. I could get to the loading screen (with the ubuntu sign in the middle of the screen) It would wait for a while. Then the... | 16:45 |
| Krytain | ...screen would go blank/black. With an message (from my monitor, not ubuntu = "Out of Range"). I don't know if it is my hardware, maybe it doesn't like my video card. Or if it is my iso (I have yet to redownload the iso, but I did a md5 check, and it was fine). | 16:45 |

| JanSch | guntbert: i suspect some graphics stuff (buggy driver) - anything i could try to make it work normally? | 17:55 |
| KarmaJones | sacarlson: it a regular bitorrent client | 17:56 |

| recon69_lap | I dl'd a avi file, but when i play it, I can see the start with some text telling me to use windows media player? the file is called Daybreakers[2009]DvDrip[Eng]-FXG.avi, anyone know if there is a way to play it in ubuntu? | 17:56 |
| guntbert | JanSch: I'm at a loss here - please try it with links2 -g (different graphics model) - that *should* work | 17:56 |
| sacarlson | KarmaJones: azureus has this built in you might want to look at it. with azureus you can control bandwidth depending on the time of day from 0 to all | 17:56 |
| arvind_khadri | recon69_lap, avi needs ugly plugin iirc, mplayer also plays it | 17:57 |
| minimec | bahamas: I guess, You need a firmware file. The firmware is probably still loaded when you do the win -> ubuntu warmstart. | 17:57 |

I started in 9.04 and in every appearance setting (from none to normal to extra) I get sluggish graphical performance. Windows move around slowly and resizing slows down. Video very slow. My system has 8gb ram and a dual core comp with built in nvidia card, so I don't think it's hardware. I'm running nvidia 185 drivers. | 18:02 |

| LJR | LordBurrito, Terminal -> aptitude update | 18:32 |
| guntbert | kaje: but you can change that permanently too - is you system a "fresh install" or an upgrade? | 18:32 |
| kaje | It is a fresh install | 18:32 |
| bahamas | minimec: what was the command to copy files from one directory to another, especially if i need administrator rights? | 18:32 |
| kaje | Just tried ESC and again nothing happened | 18:33 |
| LJR | LordBurrito, after running that command pull up System-Admin->Synaptic Package Manager and search "linux-image". I'm looking at 2.6.32.9 | 18:33 |

| sacarlson | bahamas: >sudo cp /from/file /to/file | 18:33 |
| LJR | Pici, it's not pushed through yet? | 18:33 |
| guntbert | kaje: then you have grub2 - | 18:33 |
| kaje | Yep, it's the only thing... I could boot off a cd I guess | 18:33 |
| LJR | (I'm not one of the kernel devs, so I don't know) | 18:33 |
| bahamas | thanks sacarlson | 18:33 |
| LordBurrito | LJR: Just did an aptitude update. apt-cache search still turns up only 2.6.31-16 as the latest. | 18:34 |

| d35iboy | guys how to burn cd in live mode ? | 18:35 |
| Pici | LordBurrito: You will either need to use the mailine ppa or roll your own kernel if you want something more recent than 2.6.31.17.30 (which is in karmic-proposed). But we cannot support those options here. | 18:35 |
| d35iboy | please | 18:35 |

| d35iboy | no live cd | 18:35 |
| timlee | Hi, I have some process that is in uninterruptible sleep due to limited memory. After I kill other processes, there is enough memory available for it now. How do I change the status of the process from uninterruptible sleep to normal running? Or the OS will automatically make the change? Or do I have to kill it and start it agian? Thanks! | 18:35 |
| LJR | d35iboy, then I don't think you can. | 18:36 |
| starenka | jrib: well, this is useless while he can't access anything in X (dorked resolution), who can i force X to autodetect monitor? | 18:36 |
| d35iboy | how can I get live usb ? | 18:36 |
| bahamas | minimec: if i want to copy several files, do i just write them one after the other? | 18:36 |
| LJR | LordBurrito, I have a kernel manual that is a bit out-of-date, but will get you through safely. Let me see if I can find it. | 18:36 |
| mkanyicy | kaje, can you run sudo? | 18:36 |
| jrib | starenka: he can't get to a tty? | 18:37 |
| LordBurrito | LJR, Pici: Thanks, but I really, really don't want to get into all that. I do this stuff all day for a living. Doing it at home all night long is not interesting. If the card won't work at all with what I have, I'll just send it back and live with crap graphics performance. Thanks, both of you, for your help. | 18:37 |
| sacarlson | LordBurrito: ya but compile for me takes about 30 minites of compile time. if package is available always try that first | 18:37 |
| kaje | mkanyicy: no, my sudoers file got cooked | 18:37 |
| starenka | jrib: i hope he does, but he's a noob... i just thought reconfiguring x would help (autodetect monitor) | 18:37 |
| jrib | starenka: in any case, if he can't, just use recovery mode | 18:37 |
| jrib | starenka: reconfiguring x is not going to do anything | 18:38 |

| gui7 | has anyone noticed the "new" google? :D | 18:38 |
| minimec | bahamas: I cannot tell you that, as I simply never did that. sudo cp *.* /lib/firmware should copy all files in your current folder to /lib/firmware | 18:38 |
| tyrosine | gui7: what's "new" about it | 18:38 |
| guntbert | kaje: when I boot my karmic I get for one second a line "loading grub" and pressing <shift> during that time leads to the grub menu | 18:39 |

| taipansen | hi, is there a programm to mount images by emulation a cd-drive? | 18:41 |
| tyrosine | taipansen: mount. | 18:42 |
| minimec | monokrome: You have the options 'remove' and 'remove completly'. If you 'apt-get remove' a package, the configuration in /etc is not deleted. <-- Standard behaviour, as guntbert said... | 18:42 |
| tyrosine | I think it's mount -t isofs? | 18:42 |
| taipansen | 4real? | 18:42 |

| taipansen | i dont want to burn | 18:42 |
| taipansen | i just create images of all my cds | 18:42 |

| tyrosine | b0n4tt4ck: boot into recovery mode? | 18:43 |
| LJR | They all do that | 18:43 |
| guntbert | monokrome: use sudo aptitude purge (if the package is installed) - I'm sure apt-get has a similar option | 18:43 |
| b0n4tt4ck | i have tried recovery mode, no luck | 18:44 |

| LewisDre4m | Hello guys, I have what I think is a simple one but I just don't know how to do it. I Re-Installed Ubuntu a min ago, I left my previous "/home" partition as it was and just formated and installed the OS over the top of where it used to be. I think I was thinking it would pick the "/home" thing up and keep it as my "home" but when I go into "home" now nothing is in there . . . I would like to asign this home drive as my home drive? omg that makes no s | 19:19 |
| ecrane | Pici: Ty. Dang.. not found :<. | 19:19 |
| Sabre-night | mkanyicy, alright, and i know i have a few, but i know the onse getting repeated in shuffle don't have a redunancy | 19:19 |
| acecase | can someone give me a single command to copy all .doc and .xml files from a directory and all subdirectories excluding /mnt/usb/Users/Owner/ ? Assuming it is possible | 19:19 |
| === lucian_ is now known as bahamas | ||
| jrib | acecase: you can use the find command | 19:20 |
| ecrane | LewisDre4m: You have to configure your /etc/fstab to mount the home partition as something like '/home' | 19:20 |
| edlima | OerHeks. Have many days witch I try to do it, but... | 19:20 |
| bahamas | minimec: i couldn't make it work | 19:20 |
| acecase | jrib: thanks. maning it now | 19:20 |
| mkanyicy | Sabre-night, audacious and amarok then, anyway if you have about 20000+ songs, you don't want to hear you fave song playing again only after 6 weeks, do you? | 19:20 |
| bahamas | i tried that manual after i disconnected the internet, and the command didn't work | 19:20 |
| bahamas | i don't know for what distro they were made | 19:21 |
| jrib | acecase: it's long, but essentially just work on getting it to find the files first, then look at the -exec switch | 19:21 |
| LewisDre4m | Yes, So basically what i'm asking in short is . . . How can I make A partition my HOME partition so when I go to places / music / videos / docuemnts etc it looks at this partition? | 19:21 |
| Sabre-night | mkanyicy, nore like 200, but yeah | 19:21 |
| OerHeks | edlima serverside problem | 19:21 |
| kinja-sheep | !fstab | LewisDre4m | 19:21 |
| ubottu | LewisDre4m: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 19:21 |
| acecase | jrib: thanks. If it can do what I need it will be well worth learning to use. I do this manually all the time | 19:21 |
| bahamas | but something else is clear to me, the problem is that ubuntu doesn't load the drivers to get my modem started | 19:21 |
| ecrane | LewisDre4m: on the install you can choose a particular parititon and make it's mount point '/home' and make sure you don't format it! Or, past install, you can manually add that partition to your /fstab. | 19:22 |
| mkanyicy | acecase, jrib but find will find ones from that forbidden directory as well | 19:22 |
| jrib | mkanyicy, acecase: not if you tell it not to look there | 19:22 |
| Rodensky | jrib thank you very much :) | 19:22 |

| Alex26 | Hi everyone. I would need some help. I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10, i updated the system and softwares. I installed the apps i wanted then i started customizing and configuring my system. Here is my problem | 19:38 |
| Alex26 | I chose an option to automatically log under my main user and now it crash when i boot | 19:39 |
| ecrane | Lunga: it's not so bad. The command "rsync -av <source directory> <destination directory>" will check every file and copy it. Then it's just a matter of using something like cron to schedule that command to run every 1 minute or 30 seconds or whatever.... | 19:39 |
| ecrane | Lunga: Something a little more complicated can be used to make sure the command doesn't run twice at the same time.... | 19:40 |

| jrib | acecase: yeah, it's very powerful. Though it's going to be pretty slow compared to "locate", you could probably prune the results locate gives you to exclude that directory. "locate" also accepts regex | 19:40 |
| ecrane | Lunga: I'm not an ubuntu pro though. There might be some kinda built-in directory mirroring feature. Or you can use a 3rd-party software like 'dropbox' where it goes on the web. | 19:40 |

| joaopinto | burzki, unless you find a some rare bug expected is actual | 19:49 |
| joaopinto | actually the install process is just as simple as copying the livecd contents to the disk, and then do some extra config | 19:50 |

| Ridler | i want my chat logs | 20:27 |
| danyR | ikonia: yeah. even the "network" menu opens well | 20:27 |
| Ridler | private chat log | 20:27 |
| soreau | duffydack: What does your X log say? | 20:27 |

| duffydack | soreau, http://pastebin.com/f48fd760e | 20:30 |
| genii | Ridler: Your question has no set answer because: mirc under windows has to be set to log, firstly. If you DO set that, it uses whatever location you specified in there when you did that. So short answer... mount your windows partition, look in the place you told it to put the logs there | 20:30 |
| danyR | ikonia: i've recently done some kind of "global" package purge, and i guess i've unninstalled something xdg-related... | 20:31 |

| === nero_ is now known as ubunturookie | ||
| danyR | ikonia: yeah. most of things do open well, except these specific folders. let me search synaptic for 'xdg' | 20:32 |
| duffydack | soreau, I didnt know exa was only with the free driver.. which my 9800 was using :) thanks | 20:32 |
| ikonia | danyR: only home - or others too | 20:32 |
| soreau | duffydack: To use exa, you would have to be using the open radeon driver which would require packages from the xorg-edgers repo and a newer kernel. Are you having a specific prolem you're trying to fix? | 20:32 |
| Floppy | "ubuntu, do not mount the floppy upon user logon....thanks" | 20:32 |
| Floppy | but on a seriousnote, is that possible? | 20:32 |
| ikonia | Floppy: do not put the floppy in unless you want it mounted - thanks | 20:33 |
| danyR | ikonia: Home and subfolders. i think that network:///, trash://, computer:// and even smb:// are fine | 20:33 |
| duffydack | soreau, I`m not complaining, its quick as it is.. jsut saw it was using xaa and thought i`d try... the free driver doesnt support my card whatsoever. | 20:33 |
| soreau | duffydack: That X log is not from a 9800 rather from an HD4650 | 20:33 |
| ikonia | danyR: try re-installing ubuntu-desktop pacakge - that will probably put it back | 20:33 |
| ganymede | hello, i was interested in installing this kernel: 2.6.32-02063201-generic or newer, which apparently exists in the PPA kernel-ppa. i am using 9.10, which ships with 2.6.31-16-generic but it has a timer freq of 100 HZ, but i'd like 250 HZ for virtualization. i did: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa and then sudo apt-get update and received this error: W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/b | 20:33 |

| Gremnon | I understand that XFCE has options to enable KDE and GNOME services, and GNOME can do the same for KDE services, but how do I start GNOME servies in KDE? | 20:33 |
| canthus13 | So basically, I'm in my regular install, but I'd love to be able to boot without the assistance of supergrub. | 20:33 |
| soreau | duffydack: Yes, the free driver supports your HD4650 card for 3D upstream already. as I mentioned, you'd need a newer kernel and packages from the xorg-edgers repo | 20:34 |
| ikonia | ganymede: is that ppa for karmic or jaunty ? | 20:34 |
| Pici | psvasti: You'll need to speak to the network staff of that irc server then, we have no way of knowing what they are referring to. | 20:34 |
| duffydack | soreau, I have to boot safe mode graphics to even install ubuntu 9.10.. maybe the screen res it cant detect or something.. 1600x900 | 20:34 |

The computer will only stay connected for so long, bouts an hour or two depending on usage before the network setting get overwritten by some crazy long password in the network settings dialog. Is there a... | 20:56 |
| Rodensky | *will it do :P | 20:56 |
| inkykarma | ...file similar to fstab I can edit to fix that, and will I run into any issues upgrading using that wireless usb, i.e. should I bother dragging the box down so I can hook the wire into the ethernet card directly or will I be able to install using the wireless? | 20:56 |
| ctmjr | Rodensky: yes i was going to suggest that | 20:57 |

| airtonix | shadowimmage, its a fairly sensible conclusion, one thing you'll need to keep in mind though is that virtualbox will appear to be different hardware to windows (so switching between real boot and virtualbox will look like you've replaced your entire computer hardware thus requiring activation ) | 21:29 |

| miki | baversjo: GRUB2 is differnet than first one, so I cant help you because I might make it worse if I tell you GRUB1 comand | 21:30 |
| airtonix | world-cat, you need to install the guest additions for the guest os so that virtual box provides more options | 21:31 |
| shadowimmage | airtonix, i'm not sure about the windows system activation, but in the case that it thinks that I need to reactivate it, will that make me lose my license (essentially making my $200 win xp worthless?)? | 21:31 |
| llutz | Nightlight: really odd, but i have no idea how to solve | 21:31 |
| aletheia84 | can you install proprietary drivers on ubuntu and if so how? | 21:31 |
| BluesKaj | shadowimmage, using VB is redundant if you intend to install XP on another HDD | 21:31 |
| Rodensky | ctmjr - it didn't work | 21:31 |
| world-cat | airtonix: Thanks. I will check that. I did not at least need to do this for a Windows XP guest | 21:31 |
| Diverdude | if i want to mount a drive using sshfs into /media, i first create an empty folder in /media, e.g. /media/mountdir and then i afterwards go sudo sshfs remoteserver:/remotefolder /media/mountdir right? | 21:32 |
| airtonix | shadowimmage, possibly if you just charge on into it without taking this into consideration (you'll need to search through ubuntuforums for the howto on that since it covers that scenario) | 21:32 |
| Nightlight | llutz: Thanks very much for your time anyway ! | 21:32 |
| airtonix | world-cat, yes you do (i've had to for every win32 guest i've ever ran in virtualbox) | 21:32 |
| baversjo | miki: something like this? sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/root /dev/sda | 21:32 |
| sven_oostenbrink | I am so going beserk here.. I have a bunch of scanned documents as images, I need to increase brightness and contrast for those.. I tried just about every friggin program to do so, digikam, crash, gwenview, can't, fspot, cant, picassa, can but wont... argh! How can I just simply batch modify brightness and contrast on images?!!? | 21:33 |
| baversjo | miki: replacing /dev/sda and /media/root ofc | 21:33 |
| shadowimmage | BluesKaj, it is? It seems to me that being able to access another OS from my Ubuntu host would be an advantage (no rebooting just to do one little thing) | 21:33 |
| llutz | sven_oostenbrink: convert (imagemagick) | 21:33 |
| aletheia84 | is it possible to install specific drivers in ubuntu?? | 21:33 |
| airtonix | world-cat, just incase it is not obvious the guest addtions iso you want for your ubuntu guest os can only be obtained by installing virtualbox in the guestos (then the guestaddditions iso will be somewhere /usr/share/something/something ) | 21:33 |
| floating1 | yo yo. Any good irssi-friendly lightweight terminal programs ? This lxterminal that comes with lxde don't let me disable or edit shortcut keys so that I could have all the alt1-10 to irc channel switch, also by default the http links are not clickable | 21:34 |
| miki | baversjo: yes, but I do not know how rEFIt works | 21:34 |
| world-cat | airtonix: Thanks. Maybe I did not need the guest additions, because usually my host and guest were both some Windows Versions | 21:34 |
| sven_oostenbrink | llutz: looking at it now | 21:34 |
| airtonix | world-cat, possibly (i haven't done that combination before ) | 21:34 |
| aletheia84 | Can anybody help me??? | 21:34 |
| miki | baversjo: do not use '/dec/sda' | 21:35 |
| BluesKaj | shadowimmage, you can access windows from inside ubuntu , using the ntfs volume in nautilus | 21:35 |
| airtonix | aletheia84, you need to be more specific | 21:35 |
| airtonix | BluesKaj, its not exactly what is deisred here | 21:35 |
| llutz | sven_oostenbrink: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php | 21:35 |
| miki | baversjo: /dev/sda3 shuld be better, because I figure you want chainboot | 21:35 |
| baversjo | miki: Me neither... I used this command: "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/server/ /dev/sda3". Tells me that it cant read /grub/core.img | 21:36 |
| shadowimmage | BluesKaj, if what i wanted was to access files I wouldn't bother with ntfs systems. My problem is that I'm in a class that requires me to use windows-only CAD software... and i do not want to ditch ubuntu for a quarter just because I have to use SolidWorks | 21:37 |
| Dr_Willis | baversjo: you do hagve the server installed filesystem Mounted on /mnt/server correct? check tjhe spelling? | 21:37 |
| airtonix | shadowimmage, here read this before you do anything : http://blarts.wordpress.com/2007/12/06/how-to-run-virtualbox-using-a-physical-partition-using-ubuntu-feisty-fawn/ | 21:37 |

| airtonix | shadowimmage, also this : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=769883 | 21:38 |
| miki | baversjo: It appears you need to chroot first | 21:38 |
| wolter | shadowimmage, depending on your computer performance, you could use virtualbox to host linux from ubuntu, but you'd need to install windows inside your virtual machine, and then install the CAD program | 21:38 |
| === kim__ is now known as KimuSan^ | ||
| wolter | shadowimmage, or you could see if wine supports the application | 21:39 |
| baversjo | miki: I got it installed let's see if i can boot cya THX! | 21:39 |
| bitfox | I need to format my hd... the correct steps are: cfdisk /dev/hda and mkfs -t etx3 /dev/hda? | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: cfdisk partiions the hard disk. making partions suich as /dev/sda1 and /dev/hda1 hda1 is not common these days | 21:40 |
| mazpe | how can i tell what is the latest available version of openssl via apt-get? | 21:40 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: if its allready partioned - you can just format it | 21:40 |
| wolter | shadowimmage, nah, wine can't | 21:40 |
| mezquitale | bitfox, why are you hurting yourself using cfdisk? just use a live cd with gparted | 21:40 |
| bitfox | Dr_Willis: thanks | 21:41 |
| airtonix | shadowimmage, i think you'll have less pain by working out how to setup that vbox environment... or just dual boot. the winehq page for solidworks looks like the same kind of nightmare that fallout3 is . | 21:41 |
| bitfox | Dr_Willis: the partition si ntfs native | 21:41 |
| bitfox | Dr_Willis: the partition is ntfs native | 21:41 |
| shadowimmage | wolter, that might work, what i'm concerned about it if I install windows there, is it going to be permanently bound to my VirtualBox installation (ie, is there a way to transplant the .vdi out to some other partition/disc and be able to use Windows later (perhaps would need to repair the installation?)) | 21:41 |
| tomasz | kjb | 21:41 |
| shadowimmage | airtonix, yeah, i looked into wine... not a good idea if I actually want to get my homework done | 21:41 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: then you may want to use cfdisk to delete/remake the partion with the proper type then. | 21:41 |
| === jso is now known as Guest28843 | ||
| wolter | shadowimmage, hmm... i wouldn't know about that | 21:42 |
| bitfox | Dr_Willis: I must create a Linux general partition through cfdisk tool and next use the mkfs -t ext3 | 21:42 |
| wolter | shadowimmage, but it would be very complicated I guess, as virtualbox uses its own set of drivers | 21:42 |
| airtonix | shadowimmage, yep i spent about a week trying to get fallout3 installed and running in wine... ended up just dualbooting. | 21:42 |
| Dr_Willis | shadowimmage: windows depends on the version - yes. it can get 'bound' to the vboxc machine. | 21:42 |
| wolter | shadowimmage, which wouldn't work with hardware | 21:42 |
| rd1381 | is there any way to connect to a windows share drive that is accecseable on a active dire3tory windows server? | 21:42 |

| wolter | shadowimmage, but I think your best choice is to setup a dual boot (if you haven't already) and then just get into winblows every time you need to work with the program | 21:43 |

| Shobari | is this the best channel to ask about an IP forwarding problem I am having? | 21:46 |
| shadowimmage | wolter, yeah... it'd be nice to be able to access the program through windows virtually, but it looks like that's a hard thing to do, even though I know it's been done before... I know there's ways of installing ubuntu on a machine that already had windows, and adds the grub bootloader... is it as easy to install windows after having linux being the only OS? Also, I have two HDDs, and perhaps it would work to install windows | 21:46 |
| bitfox | I think my hard disk has fault | 21:46 |
| shadowimmage | on the second HDD, and then have grub access it instead? | 21:46 |
| boscop | hi. anyone here playing world of goo? | 21:46 |

| wolter | shadowimmage, installing ubuntu on top of windows is no problem... now, if you do it the other way around, you'll get your bootloader screwed unless you reinstall grub | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | shadowimmage: 2 hd's make it much easier.. Unplug the ubuntu one.. Install windows to the 2nd hd.. plug both back in.. You could either use the bios to pick what hd toboot.. or rerun 'updateg-grub' and use the grub bootloader to boot wimndows | 21:47 |
| lb36t1 | anyone? | 21:47 |
| wolter | shadowimmage, listen to Dr_Willis, he knows more about it than I do | 21:48 |
| Shobari | ok - this started only a day or two ago. Ubuntu 9.04 as router/firewall. I have IP forwarding enabled (ufw), been working for a long time no trouble. today my other machine on the network is not able to browse the web, HTTP keeps getting garbled up, losing packets. | 21:48 |
| shadowimmage | Dr_Willis, is there some page that documents updating grub? doing what you suggest (sounds safest and easiest for me) the only potential hiccup for me would be fixing grub to load windows... because I haven't really had to mess with grub before | 21:49 |

| devon | ok, can you tell me how to downgrade to 9.04 in case I am unable to get WoW to work on 9.10? | 22:01 |
| guntbert | dooglus_: it doesn't "lie" - maybe there are soft links in the file system | 22:01 |
| === mediaprodigy is now known as mp_away | ||
| lb36t1 | ok ill try that what will it do | 22:01 |
| mkanyicy | bitfox, do you want to share the whole partition or a folder on it | 22:01 |

| iceroot | !downgrade | devon | 22:01 |
| ubottu | devon: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 22:01 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: it's a single file | 22:01 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: I gzipped it to see if it was 'sparse'. it stayed 165MB | 22:01 |
| mazpe | is it safe to upgrade manually to apache 2.2.14? since apt-get install apache2 is installing 2.2.8? | 22:02 |
| newbie123 | that's done in kde 4.4 | 22:02 |
| yq | Urgh I am currently suffering from the loudness issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/410948 even one single bar will make everything incredibly loud | 22:02 |
| epinky | diddy: post the image link again, "file not found" | 22:02 |
| yq | pulseaudio -k should reload the .pa load-module file, right? | 22:02 |
| yq | Or do I need to reboot Ubuntu? | 22:02 |
| lb36t1 | it returns: interface does not support wireless statistic connection | 22:02 |

| devon | I don't care, I wan't to play WoW. All I had to do to get it to work on 9.04 was set win ver to xp and turn off pixel shader. That does not get it to work on 9.10 | 22:02 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: notice the '1', showing it's not a softlink | 22:02 |
| bitfox | Dr_Willis: yes, I'm doing that through chown and chmod but I think it is more expensive because there are a lot of files... -_-' | 22:02 |
| bitfox | mkanyicy: I want to share a partition | 22:03 |
| wesley | hello I keep getting a error when I try make a dvd in devede | 22:03 |
| Hilikus | i updated to 0.9.21 to try to fix a loud,short crackling noise at the beginning of pretty much every sound and i think it made it worse. now i noticed that it always happens if nothing has played in like 5 seconds, if i play different sounds sooner than 5 seconds theres no crackling | 22:03 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: thats just how it is. You dont just override permissions on ext/3/4 with mount options.. at least ive NEVER seen it done. | 22:03 |
| Hilikus | any idea what could it be? | 22:03 |
| nvme | for some reason my ubuntu live install cd keeps going to low graphics mode , was working before. anyone know what to do ? | 22:03 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: that's what the last guy said, too | 22:03 |
| Hilikus | Codec: Realtek ALC883 | 22:03 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: i guess there could be some obscure mount options.. but again. ive never seen it done. | 22:03 |
| mkanyicy | bitfox, then chmod the partition to the right mode and chown it to the user and group you want to grant access to | 22:04 |
| iceroot | devon: wow is running fine with 9.10 and wine | 22:04 |
| iceroot | devon: if you want to downgrade you have to reinstall | 22:04 |
| Krezlyn420 | i have to ask, on linux my main hdd is sda1, is that going to be the C drive if in linux? | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: yea like mkanyicy said. if you wan tto 'own' the root of the drive. you chown the mountpoint AFTER its mounted | 22:04 |
| guntbert | dooglus_: confess: you made that up :-) | 22:04 |
| triple_x | lb36t1 do sudo iwconfig | 22:04 |
| bitfox | Dr_Willis: during the boot the partition to share is mounted and owned by root user... this is a problem because when i log as normal user from windows client through samba, I can't read, write, and so on... permissions denied! :-( | 22:04 |
| Krezlyn420 | errr C Drive if in Windows* sorry | 22:04 |
| NeoBlaster | epinky: is there another log (except messages) ? because i don't see anything during the crashtime period | 22:04 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: nope, it's not the case :) | 22:04 |
| jrib | Krezlyn420: not necessarily afaik | 22:05 |
| wesley | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d6213cf97 here is the log, could someone look why its going wrong in mencoder, I tried to downgrade to older version, newer version etc still get same error | 22:05 |
| DarkS7ar | hi | 22:05 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: I have another 175MB file that shows as 70M or so :) | 22:05 |
| DarkS7ar | can u help me | 22:05 |
| epinky | diddy: boot LiveCD and open Gparted, try to check with it(gparted) | 22:05 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: samba also has its own settings to tweak/change permissions for samba ussage. I just have a single user. so everything on m y shares are owned by him | 22:05 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: du lies, I tell you! | 22:05 |
| DarkS7ar | i have BIG problem | 22:05 |
| Krezlyn420 | ok, well wish my luck guys. | 22:05 |
| mkanyicy | bitfox, then change the owner of that partition and set access permissions accordingly | 22:05 |
| diddy | epinky, but the partition is encrypted. | 22:05 |
| guntbert | dooglus_: the problem really interests me - but here it is way past bedtime - sorry | 22:05 |
| kinja-sheep | trism: Nice video! (Not to mention that obvious notification bubble bug where it came one bar too low). :) | 22:05 |
| Dr_Willis | bitfox: you could set some insecure modes :) but thats proberly not a good idea. | 22:05 |
| epinky | diddy: just try :) | 22:05 |
| bnjmn | i'm writing a script to install some packages manually. one of them is postfix, which has an interactive configuration that comes up when you install it. is it possible to pass the configuration params on the command line somehow? | 22:06 |
| epinky | NeoBlaster: dmesg command can be helpful, however it depends on which app crashes the system | 22:06 |
| iceroot | bnjmn: there is non-interactive for dpkg | 22:06 |
| diddy | epinky, but will gparted be able to see anything? The entire disk is encrypted with truecrypt. | 22:06 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: I'll give you a clue if you like... | 22:06 |
| === mp_away is now known as mediaprodigy | ||
| dooglus_ | guntbert: when I in installed ubuntu 9.10, it asked if I wanted to encrypt my home folder. I told it I did. | 22:07 |
| mkanyicy | bitfox, in the most basic and most insecure case, just do a "sudo chown -Rv 777 mount-point" while the partition is mounted to the mount point | 22:07 |
| epinky | diddy: to see it clearly nope, but to check orphan inodes yes | 22:07 |
| dooglus_ | guntbert: so none of my files are as they seem, I guess. could that be what's causing the porkies? | 22:07 |

| mzawieska | jrib, any other way cause in cydia there is no ifconfig | 22:57 |
| jrib | mzawieska: I don't know offhand | 22:57 |
| corinth | AvonGenesis, use regular Ubuntu then, lol. | 22:58 |
| jrib | mzawieska: maybe in the iphone network preferences it will show you the ip | 22:58 |
| AvonGenesis | corinth: Well, Im using jolicloud, i like all the cloud features that they have as well as their list of cloud apps, i just dont want to use the netbook launcher for all my programs. | 22:58 |
| mzawieska | jrib, but dont connect via wifi right | 22:58 |
| Favorit | mzawieska: how about "ip addr" ? | 22:59 |
| jrib | mzawieska: yeah, connect | 22:59 |
| corinth | AvonGenesis, that's the whole point of a netbook interface...it's all you use | 22:59 |
| baversjo | How can I generate a boot menu for GRUB2? I've (re)installed GRUB (not on MBR) on my ubuntu partition and now I'm trying to boot into it. Right now I'm inside the ubuntu Live CD trying to set this up. I've mounted ubuntu to /mnt. Been trying to fix my boot problems for several days now. | 22:59 |
| jac1d | Is it correc that Nvidia drivers + 9.10 have resolution issues? Finding complaints all over the interwebs. My new mythbuntu system keeps booting in to low res mode on my 720p TV and even the latest PPA driver hasn't helped. Is there a solution? | 22:59 |
| corinth | HELP. Can't right-click or left-click anything. Alt-tab doesn't change window focus, either. Cursor moves, but no clicking. :-( | 22:59 |
| erUSUL | !grub2 | baversjo | 22:59 |
| ubottu | baversjo: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 22:59 |
| triple_x | AvonGenesis: you want the Ubuntu netbook remix allows you to switch views | 23:00 |
| Favorit | corinth: gnome taskbars hanging? | 23:00 |
| erUSUL | corinth: you have windows borders ? | 23:00 |
| mzawieska | jrib, i connected to my router via wif ip addrese its blue DHCP i see ip address sunet mask router dn search domain clien id.. | 23:00 |
| AvonGenesis | corinth: I remember the ubuntu netbook remix having the ability to switch between desktop and netbook launcher. Cant find it on jolicloud | 23:00 |
| jrib | mzawieska: I just confirmed the settings interface displays the ip address when you click the (>) for the network | 23:00 |
| corinth | Favorit, Hanging? | 23:00 |
| jrib | mzawieska: use that ip address in nautilus | 23:00 |
| corinth | erUSUL, Yep, I have window decorations. | 23:00 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | baversjo, have you tried editing grub.cfg manually? | 23:00 |
| erUSUL | baversjo: see the section about recovering grub from a liveCD | 23:01 |
| mzawieska | jrib, u mean gksudo nautilus? | 23:01 |
| AvonGenesis | triple_x: Aww, it that the case then? I guess i have no use for conky. Or any other eyecandy upgrades. | 23:01 |
| Losha | Krezlyn420: doesn't sound right. Exactly what problem are you trying to solve? | 23:01 |
| jrib | mzawieska: you shouldn't gksudo | 23:01 |
| Favorit | corinth: ah, you also have open windows, i see. then it's something else. try ctrl-alt-f1 and then alt-f7 to go back, can very well be that it won't go back and you'll have to shoot your xwin session, but it's worth a try | 23:01 |
| Oleandro | server irc.OpenJoke.net | 23:01 |
| mzawieska | jrib, sudo nautilus | 23:01 |
| corinth | Favorit, I've already tried a full reboot. | 23:01 |
| === qwerty is now known as Guest47581 | ||
| jrib | mzawieska: no sudo... | 23:01 |
| Krezlyn420 | losha, when i boot the windows xp pro cd, and i delete the partion and try to recreate it, i cant select the format type (ntfs fat etc) | 23:01 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | baversjo, you could to a sudo update-grub, then copy the grub.cfg to your partition in /mnt | 23:01 |
| Favorit | corinth: oh, even that. i see. | 23:01 |
| mzawieska | jrib, just nautilus in terminal? | 23:01 |
| Krezlyn420 | losha, when i try to use that it and it install onit still it says its not windows compatiable. | 23:02 |
| jrib | mzawieska: yes | 23:02 |
| corinth | Okay, like - for a moment I'm able to click, right now | 23:02 |
| Oleandro | server irc.openjoke.org | 23:02 |

| lsdluna | everytime I load up Language Support - Add/Remove Languages - Check language then click Apply Changes - Language Support freezes? Is there an alternative terminal command in which I can do to 'check' the languages and apply rather than through language support front end app? | 23:02 |
| corinth | * :-( | 23:02 |
| mzawieska | jrib, i got it now what should i do type in location the ip address | 23:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Oleandro: try a slas at teh front :) | 23:02 |
| Krezlyn420 | my /dev/sdb1 is my second hdd, so i just wanna format it to allow the windows cd install so i can start installing for my duel boot. | 23:02 |
| baversjo | Supersaiyan_IV: Thx, will try that now :) | 23:02 |
| jrib | mzawieska: yeah | 23:02 |
| corinth | Back again | 23:02 |
| triple_x | AvonGenesis: that is why I'm going to buy a 12 inch Asus netbook 1201n | 23:02 |
| Oleandro | thank you er USUL | 23:02 |
| mzawieska | jrib, /ipaddress? | 23:02 |
| corinth | It's almost as if suddenly everything freezes except for my active window...except I know that isn't true | 23:03 |
| jrib | mzawieska: just the ip address | 23:03 |
| floating1 | anyone know how I can install japanese language support from command-line ? | 23:03 |
| corinth | Because messages from pidgin will still come in... | 23:03 |
| erUSUL | lsdluna: sudo aptitude install language-support-[whatever] ? where whatever is the two letter iso code od the language/country | 23:03 |
| floating1 | I mean support to view japanese charachters is enough! | 23:03 |
| mzawieska | jrib, it says could not display | 23:03 |
| jrib | mzawieska: did you choose "ssh server" as the type? | 23:03 |
| AvonGenesis | triple_x: Is Ubuntu netbook remix one of the more stable netbook linux distros? Well, I mean, does it work right of the box, install it and i have all my function keys working, camera, mic, etc.? | 23:03 |
| erUSUL | floating1: i can see them without doing anything special in terminal even | 23:03 |
| baversjo | Supersaiyan_IV: I'm getting an error (got this before). grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /. This happens both when chrooted to my /mnt and while in the live cd | 23:03 |
| Losha | Krezlyn420: sounds like a windows partitioner issue. Try asking on #windows. Alternatively, try a different partitioner e.g. boot a ubuntu livedcd and use gparted | 23:03 |
| mzawieska | jrib, i just typed the ip nothig else | 23:03 |
| erUSUL | !jp | floating1 you do not see this | 23:04 |
| ubottu | floating1 you do not see this: 日本語の場合は #ubuntu-jp または #kubuntu-jp を参照して下さい | 23:04 |
| jrib | mzawieska: right, so do that | 23:04 |
| Guest47581 | how do you play DVD's in Ubuntu | 23:04 |

| mzawieska | jrib, idk how that goes... | 23:04 |
| Krezlyn420 | losha, i am using gparted to format to a FAT32 | 23:04 |
| mzawieska | jrib, /shh/192...? | 23:04 |
| Krezlyn420 | howto's are telling me its because linux uses a superblock | 23:04 |
| floating1 | I don't see those. Well I found few packages that I could try install, I try those and then go to these rooms | 23:04 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | baversjo, right, this is off the livecd | 23:04 |
| jrib | mzawieska: just look at the options you get when you click on file -> connect to server | 23:04 |
| triple_x | AvonGenesis: usually may require some setup... not sure in your case??? | 23:04 |
| corinth | Okay, if I right-click like CRAZY everywhere, eventually I come to a spot where I'm able to do it. Then, if I try to interact with a menu item, I regain the ability to interact with the entire desktop. But then a few seconds later, BAM. Back to the same issue... | 23:05 |
| AvonGenesis | triple_x: Alright thanks, ill look more into it. | 23:05 |
| lorenzo_ | hi, can anyone suggest a lightweight download manager to integrate into chromium-browser? i tried uget but the deb file just wont download. thanks! | 23:05 |
| baversjo | Supersaiyan_IV: So what are you saying? Is it possible? Any ideas? :) | 23:05 |
| Dr_Willis | lorenzo_: you mean to say you need a download manager to download a download manager? :) | 23:05 |
| Losha | Krezlyn420: Well, I'd be lying if I said I understood why it's not working.... | 23:05 |
| Favorit | corinth: hmm, some weird desktop gadget that's misbehaving? | 23:05 |
| mzawieska | jrib, server type shh and server: the ipe nothing else right? | 23:06 |
| jrib | mzawieska: you have to specify somewhere, the ip address, that it is an ssh connection, that you are connecting as root, and what root's password is | 23:06 |
| triple_x | lol Dr_Willis | 23:06 |
| * Dr_Willis goes back to sleep now. | 23:06 | |
| jrib | mzawieska: it may prompt for the username and password later, just try | 23:06 |
| corinth | Favorit, All I have open is xchat and pidgin. Compiz is running, but no widgets or gadgets. | 23:06 |
| lorenzo_ | Dr_Willis, haha no i need a different download manager :D | 23:06 |
| BluesKaj | lorenzo_, chromium has a built in download manager | 23:06 |
| Favorit | corinth: try disabling compiz just for a test sake | 23:06 |
| corinth | How? I need a command line. | 23:06 |

| ubottu | 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+) | 23:07 |
| Favorit | corinth: hmm, that's a good one. let me try and look it up for you | 23:07 |
| lorenzo_ | BluesKaj, yeah but it's kinda slow - compared to say Down Them All (the Firefox download manager extension) | 23:07 |
| Krezlyn420 | anyone know how to fix a problem that windows install cd wont format or install to a hdd i have? the drive used to be ext3 and i've even tried to gparted (fdisk) it with a unformatted partion and it wont format / install to it | 23:07 |

| jeffjeffdejeff | hi all. running 9.04 64bit. i keep having to d/load and install flashplugin-installer to get youtube to work after closing and re-opening firefox. any workaround to avoid having to do this? | 23:07 |
| Favorit | corinth: metacity --replace | 23:07 |
| mzawieska | jrib, the user name is alphine? | 23:08 |
| erUSUL | jeffjeffdejeff: « sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree » does not work ? | 23:08 |
| jrib | mzawieska: you're connecting as "root" | 23:08 |
| osmosis | in banshee-awn-plugin what does awn stand for? | 23:09 |
| BluesKaj | lorenzo_, well it could be your network is slow, DL managers aren't slow or fast, the network is | 23:09 |
| mzawieska | jrib, all i di was nautilus then file connect server picked shh and typed the server the ip | 23:09 |
| erUSUL | !awn | osmosis | 23:09 |

| triple_x | lorenzo_: you should try the chromium channel!!! ;) | 23:09 |
| jeffjeffdejeff | erusul: i'll give it a go | 23:09 |
| mzawieska | jrib, it asked me for user name and password i type alphine and typed the password but then it ask me to trype password again | 23:10 |
| xim_ | i put a new drive in my computer and formatted it ext4 | 23:10 |
| jrib | mzawieska: you're connecting as "root", not "alphine" | 23:10 |

| Losha | osmosis: next time, google "ubuntu awn"...\ | 23:10 |
| lorenzo_ | BluesKaj, well downloading the same file in chromium or down them all within 1 minute of each other i can see a difference - i am talking maybe twice as fast. | 23:10 |

| ubottu | xim_: If you are adding space to your Ubuntu installation mounting a newly created unix filesystem (ext3, xfs, jfs, etc) you can not set permissions (read, write, etc) filesystem-wide like you do when mounting filesystems that do not support unix permissions (vfat, ntfs, hfs, etc).

| xim_ | erUSUL, no, i cant copy anything into the drive or even mount it without sudo | 23:11 |
| jrib | mzawieska: you need to use something like dtunes on the iphone to play files you copy (because itunes builds a database and apple doesn't share how) | 23:11 |
| trism | lsdluna: found a command line app that comes with gnome-language-support; check-language-support --language=xx | 23:11 |

| jeffjeffdejeff | erusul: seems to work for now - although i thought that about the previous method | 23:12 |
| erUSUL | xim_: obviously to moount drives you need sudo | 23:12 |
| xim_ | erUSUL, well no error, it just wants me to sudo | 23:12 |
| snake | YO! | 23:12 |
| xim_ | erUSUL, but then the owner is root | 23:12 |

| snake | theres something wrong with my windows machine... | 23:12 |
| snake | its windows =D | 23:13 |

| snake | cmon thats hilarious no lols | 23:13 |

| baversjo | Supersaiyan_IV: file* | 23:18 |
| SLAiNTRAX | It kills the connection, and doesnt let you connect back | 23:18 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | baversjo, i suggest you follow the manual method | 23:18 |
| erUSUL | done365: can you post the exact mesaage ? maybe it is just a harmless warning | 23:18 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | baversjo, it's just below | 23:18 |

| erUSUL | done365: only server hardware supports ECC memory. maybe you are using the server kernel in a normal pc and it just complains there is no ECC memory | 23:20 |
| done365 | erusul: I'll get it, but to summerize it says that it was unable to use it (my mem is not equipped with it) and that I need the work around to avoid further errors Losha: just a bunch of folks complaining regarding the error | 23:20 |
| erUSUL | done365: that's harmless you already know you do not have ECC memory | 23:20 |
| SLAiNTRAX | what could temporarily ban an IP address in ubuntu server? This happened out of nowhere. | 23:20 |

| done365 | erusul: I consider that, but I am having sever memory man issues, and thought that this error could be a contributing factor. | 23:21 |

| basilisk | Help! I am trying to format a flash drive bought yesterday after it got corrupted on a Windows PC. When I try to make a new partition or table in GParted it freezes up. Any advice??? | 23:22 |
| trism | lsdluna: after some investigating zh_CN (simplified) or zh_TW (traditional) seem to be what you want | 23:22 |
| SLAiNTRAX | I'm hosting a server on a certain port. when I send a few packets a second, it basically blocks all my connections. I cant even ping the server, while others can | 23:22 |
| lsdluna | trism: thanks for the help - this resolved it - sudo apt-get install language-pack-zh language-support-zh language-pack-gnome-zh | 23:22 |
| lsdluna | 水 | 23:23 |
| trism | lsdluna: excellent | 23:23 |
| erUSUL | done365: ok; hen maybe the memory is busted? tried memtest ? | 23:23 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: it seems really odd what sort of lan are you using? | 23:23 |
| done365 | erusul: will do... | 23:24 |

| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: you can block an ip with iptables, you probably could check to see if it is the server that is banning your ip or something else. | 23:26 |
| erUSUL | basilisk: check dmesg ? | 23:26 |
| jrib | pilif12p: not sure why you would want to, but sure... | 23:26 |
| basilisk | erUSUL elaborate please | 23:26 |
| pilif12p | jrib: because i... i dunno | 23:26 |
| pilif12p | oh | 23:27 |
| pilif12p | i know | 23:27 |
| pilif12p | i wanna use cloud | 23:27 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 my friend got banned at the same time when that happened, but other people connected didn't | 23:27 |
| erUSUL | basilisk: when you try to create the parition chack dmesg last messages. to see any meaninfull error that could appear there. or just do all operation with a terminal open and running « tailf /var/log/messages » | 23:27 |
| SLAiNTRAX | also iptables show nothing | 23:27 |
| iKernel | pilif12p, what for? | 23:27 |
| eltume | I burned an iso using brasero but when I md5sum /dev/cdrom it gives me a different md5sum than the original iso. Is this normal with brasero? | 23:27 |
| pilif12p | pilif12p: I dunno. | 23:28 |
| iKernel | lol | 23:28 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: maybe its not the server that banned you but something above the server. | 23:28 |
| Shinydan | Further help, please? Rhythmbox has just stopped working... | 23:28 |
| SLAiNTRAX | I have thought about that | 23:28 |
| SLAiNTRAX | but I really doubt it. | 23:28 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: is your server behind a firewall, or can you listen at any port? | 23:29 |
| SLAiNTRAX | I can listen on any port. no firewall | 23:29 |
| basilisk | erUSUL: dmesg keeps spitting out "sd 6:0:0:0 [sdb] Sense Key: No sense current." I'm guessing it can't detect some electric current, but it does detect there is a 4gb storage there | 23:30 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 ill try disabling iptables | 23:31 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: there is this ... http://www.tutorial5.com/content/view/101/51/ | 23:31 |
| mkanyicy | eltume, i am not supprised, brasero is bad news lately, buggy buggy buggy | 23:31 |
| eltume | i'm on ubuntu 8.04.3 lol | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | basilisk: o.0! really dunno seems to be very broken... tried with fdisk? or the key does not get a /dev/sdx node? | 23:32 |
| eltume | so it's an older version | 23:32 |
| iKernel | eltume, well upgrade to at least 9.04 | 23:32 |
| Agnaldo | alguem do brasil? | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | !br | Agnaldo | 23:32 |
| ubottu | Agnaldo: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 23:32 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 it's a basic server. nothing else installed but gnome and a few other packages | 23:32 |
| eltume | I'm double checking the md5sum | 23:32 |
| iKernel | eltume, I'm using 9.10 myself, but lots of people have been reporting problems with wifi and sound | 23:32 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: this uses a file, /etc/host.deny I figured it might be worth looking at. | 23:33 |
| iKernel | no problems with sound here, although surround sound in ALSA still needs a lot of work... | 23:33 |
| basilisk | erUSUL: tried with fdisk on windows and disk manager on a mac, nothing. it does get a node in ubuntu though | 23:33 |

| Agnaldo | #ubuntu-br gostaria de uma ajudinha para instalar o Mplayer no Ubuntu 9.10 | 23:33 |
| odinsban1 | basilisk: how about fsck ? | 23:33 |
| erUSUL | basilisk: try « sudo fdisk /dev/sdx » | 23:33 |
| mkanyicy | yeah, iKernel, seems like sound and wifi issues are a lot on karmic | 23:33 |
| erUSUL | Agnaldo: /j #ubuntu-br obrigado | 23:34 |
| Melquisedec | hi all | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | theres always sound and wifi and flash and video issues.. :() | 23:34 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 theres no such file :) | 23:34 |
| mkanyicy | hi Melquisedec | 23:34 |
| Agnaldo | #ubuntu-br alguem aqui fala portugues? | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | I rember back in the day when it was a all day task to get a cd burner going.. :) | 23:34 |
| basilisk | erUSUL: that command freezes up terminal as well | 23:34 |
| erUSUL | basilisk: :| | 23:34 |
| mkanyicy | Dr_Willis, but wifi and sound issues are alarming in karmic | 23:34 |
| baversjo | After 12 hours I finally got Ubuntu booted!!! I have grub installed on sda3 (I don't want it in MBR, it's a mac mini). When I load grub I only get a prompt. I loaded the kernel and the initrd. When I used the boot command it booted my ubuntu server! Now to the hard question: How can I get a boot menu so I don't have to do this manually (inside ubuntu server 9.10). | 23:34 |
| iKernel | mkanyicy, myself, I might be just lucky, but I have had no sound issues at all. | 23:35 |
| Melquisedec | mi netbook Acer Aspire One D150-1577 not recognize the webcam integrated (sorry my ingles= | 23:35 |
| eltume | guys, I found out the problem. | 23:35 |
| Agnaldo | #ubuntu-br alguem aqui fala portugues? | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | basilisk: and if we just zero the thing ? « sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx » | 23:35 |
| basilisk | odinsban1: what would be the command for fsck? | 23:35 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: does ubuntu server come with selinux? | 23:35 |
| pilif12p | Why did i get a 64 bit ubuntu CD when i ordered a 32 bit? | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | Agnaldo: escrive "/join #ubuntu-br" sen os "" e dalle o enter | 23:35 |
| mkanyicy | Dr_Willis, iKernel I have old unresolved wifi issues, i just gave up ages ago, it used to work in intrepid, i never had sound problems | 23:36 |
| eltume | Brasero couldn't eject the disc after burning and i md5summed without ejecting the disc. Once i ejected it and md5sum it gave me the same md5sum as the original iso.! | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | odinsban1: yes you can install it from repositories. default is apparmor though | 23:36 |
| Dr_Willis | pilif12p: ordered from whom? i dident think shipit did 64bit cd's | 23:36 |
| odinsban1 | basilisk: the docs say that fsck is for linux file systems. | 23:36 |
| basilisk | erUSUL: doing that gives and error saying dev/sdb exists even though it shows up in gparted | 23:36 |
| pilif12p | but i got a 64 bit from shipit | 23:36 |
| rami_ | Hello guys, I am running Karmic (upgraded from Jaunty) and I can't boot. I get "Kernel Panic, Not syncing: no init found. try passint init option to kernel" note that I upgraded grub to grub2 and everything was fine, and I booted a couple of times. But then I played around with Startupmanager and increased the resolution. That is the only "hardcore" tweaking I did before this error. Any ideas? Thanks in advance | 23:36 |
| mkanyicy | eltume, then it's fine! | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | basilisk: :/ rally dunno seems like the thing is busted for good | 23:37 |
| basilisk | odinsban1: yes but trying << fsck dev/sdb >> or << fsck -p dev/sdb >> isnt doing anything | 23:37 |
| basilisk | erUSUL: ); oki | 23:37 |
| Agnaldo | #ubuntu-br please, how do I install Mplyer in Ubuntu 9.10? | 23:37 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 it looks like it | 23:37 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 I have a dir /selinux/ | 23:38 |
| Agnaldo | please, how do I install Mplyer in Ubuntu 9.10? | 23:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Agnaldo: its in the package manager. - you may want the w32codecs package from medibintu also | 23:38 |
| mkanyicy | rami_, that startupmanager thing is very notorious, I must name and shame it | 23:38 |
| Dr_Willis | !info gnome-mplayer | 23:38 |
| ubottu | gnome-mplayer (source: gnome-mplayer): A GTK+ interface for MPlayer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 0.9.8-1ubuntu2 (karmic), package size 307 kB, installed size 1316 kB | 23:38 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: either selinux or apparmor seem like candidates for blocking an ip, though they might just be more filesystem oriented. | 23:38 |
| rami_ | mkanyicy, do you expect that it did something to it? | 23:39 |
| Agnaldo | Dr. Willis am new to linux, can you help? | 23:39 |
| Melquisedec | any help?. | 23:39 |
| SLAiNTRAX | so disable apparmor? | 23:39 |
| mkanyicy | rami_, you rather use terminal to tweak grub or boot related stuff, especially now that there is a moody grub2 (beta) | 23:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Agnaldo: fire up the pacakge manager/ubunt software center/ or 'synaptic' and search for and install 'gnome-mplayer' or use 'sudo apt-get install gnome-mplayer' from a command line | 23:40 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: I would first try to see if it blocks ips | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !apt | Agnaldo | 23:40 |
| ubottu | Agnaldo: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) | 23:40 |
| mkanyicy | Melquisedec, what's the question? | 23:40 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1: how do I check? | 23:40 |
| rami_ | mkanyicy, I know thats what I usually do. I don't know what hit me using SUM. Guess I was just too lazy to understand grub2 | 23:40 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: google, it doesn't look like apparmor can ban ips | 23:41 |
| mkanyicy | rami_, i must admit that grub2 looks different and 'involved' | 23:41 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 so far I've found nothing about it banning ip's | 23:41 |
| rami_ | mkanyicy, what other files besides /etc/default/grub should I be looking at? I suspect that its just not pointing to a right kernel or something | 23:42 |
| luis__ | ffmpeg is failing at making youtube files mp3, whats happening? | 23:43 |
| luis__ | maybe if I reinstall? but whats the command to erase packages? | 23:43 |
| mkanyicy | rami_, I really don't know, tried booting on recovery mode? | 23:43 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: this thread points at OSSEC | 23:43 |
| Melquisedec | mkanyicy, i cant use my webcam (acer aspire one D150-1577). For default XP Home, but format and install ubuntu 9.10 and UNR 9.10 but nothing..not detect Webcam and mic | 23:43 |
| Flare-Laptop | luis__: sudo apt-get remove <insert package name here> | 23:43 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 huh? | 23:44 |
| rami_ | mkanyicy, same error | 23:44 |
| luis__ | Flare-Laptop: thanks! | 23:44 |
| SLAiNTRAX | I don't have OSSEC on it | 23:44 |
| poseidon | I need to make a graph for my high school chem class. Anyone know of a good way to do this on ubuntu? | 23:44 |
| Flare-Laptop | luis__: No problem | 23:44 |
| mkanyicy | luis__, first, can you play those youtube files | 23:44 |
| adz | alright I am looking at /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog and I only see stuff from this morning | 23:44 |
| Flare-Laptop | poseidon: OpenOffice.org calc | 23:44 |
| Flare-Laptop | poseidon: or Gnumeric | 23:44 |
| trism | poseidon: also gnuplot | 23:45 |
| rami_ | mkanyicy, but under recovery, i get more information: Dumping ftrace buffer (ftrace buffer empty) | 23:45 |
| odinsban1 | SLAiNTRAX: the only defaul thing I see that blocks ip addresses is iptables, and I don't have anyproblem with it from the laptop next to me, but that is a debian server. | 23:46 |
| mkanyicy | rami_, I am clueless about that, what does google give you with that sort of error? | 23:46 |
| adz | Here is the problem: Today my server crashed. It does not boot up. It gets passed the GRUB screen, and then the screen goes black. When I try in recovery mode it displays messages, and then crashes when I try to log in (sometimes even before) | 23:46 |
| porro | spanish?? | 23:46 |
| porro | somebody?? | 23:46 |
| adz | is tehre any way I can recover the computer? | 23:46 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 thanks for your help. If this is going to happen again I'll look deeper into it... | 23:46 |
| odinsban1 | (I will send a lot of requests to it for tests) | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | !es | porro | 23:46 |
| ubottu | porro: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 23:46 |
| porro | ok | 23:46 |
| SLAiNTRAX | odinsban1 right now im too tired ot think | 23:47 |

| adz | mkanyicy: I am trying to recover mysql files | 23:49 |
| davidubuntu | great, can anyone tell me how to remove the application start menu from the desktop, or provide a link to a walkthrough to do this? | 23:49 |
| luis__ | Flare-Laptop: wow, i did a remove and install of ffmpeg, but the program cant still make .flv to mp3!!! | 23:49 |
| adz | from livecd | 23:49 |
| Dr_Willis | xim_: that selinux can do some fancy things.. but i dont think it can do that either. | 23:49 |
| mkanyicy | Dr_Willis, it's adz who has a recovery problem | 23:49 |
| Dr_Willis | mkanyicy: so it is.. silly me. :) | 23:50 |

| unop | luis__, is this ffmpeg from the medibuntu repository? | 23:50 |
| mkanyicy | adz, good | 23:50 |
| Flare-Laptop | luis__: yeah, that's because flv is a video format and mp3 is a audio format | 23:50 |
| mkanyicy | adz, now did you mount the ubuntu partition already? | 23:50 |
| adz | and all my /var/www stuff is just fine | 23:50 |
| adz | but I need my mysql files | 23:50 |
| adz | yes | 23:50 |
| mkanyicy | adz, now do you have a usb storage device connected? | 23:51 |
| adz | I have a nas | 23:51 |
| minimec | davidubuntu: It's an applet. right mouse click 'remove from panel' ... | 23:51 |
| mkanyicy | adz, where is it mounted? | 23:51 |
| luis__ | Flare-Laptop: i have done conversions before of flvs to mp3s using ffmpeg and now suddenly ffmpeg doesnt work | 23:52 |
| luis__ | whats happening | 23:52 |
| adz | it is at /media/bcf14bf8-829e-48d2-9f3e-941173736673 | 23:52 |
| mkanyicy | adz, ?? | 23:52 |
| done365 | Is Karmic just a memory hog as compared to Jaunty. The googling I've been doing seems to indicate so? | 23:52 |

| === h32Lg|test is now known as h32Lg | ||
| unop | luis__, the ffmpeg from the ubuntu repository has not been built with mp3 support (for legal reasons) - so if you're using that, it won't work obviously. | 23:53 |
| adz | mkanyicy: how so | 23:53 |
| unop | !medibuntu > luis__ | 23:53 |
| ubottu | luis__, please see my private message | 23:53 |
| mkanyicy | adz, tell me where do you want to put the destination files? | 23:53 |
| davidubuntu | minimec: it seems i cannot right click on this menu anywhere, or right click on the desktop. does this make sense? | 23:53 |
| adz | well I will probaly just email them | 23:53 |
| BumpTop | i have a question | 23:53 |
| adz | the dbs are tiny | 23:53 |
| adz | and I have the /var/www backed up | 23:53 |

| unop | luis__, i'm pretty sure that's not true - the ubuntu version has never been built with mp3 support | 23:56 |
| adz | I decided to just email them | 23:56 |
| jaunt | does | 23:56 |
| adz | they are tiny 10 meg files | 23:56 |
| unop | luis__, anyway, use the medibuntu version | 23:56 |
| FloodBot4 | adz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:56 |

| done365 | acicula: I agree, but relatively speaking, when performing reasonably similar task does the one release use far more memory than the other. Or does it come out about square? plus how do I answer this question with only one box right now | 23:56 |
| jaunt | does ubun | 23:56 |
| VCoolio | luis__: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 (followed it this afternoon, works fine) | 23:56 |

| bean | jaunt: you mean like virtualbox? | 23:57 |
| mkanyicy | adz, try this "sudo tar -cvpf ~/Desktop/mysql_backup.tar /media/bcf14bf8-829e-48d2-9f3e-941173736673/var/lib/mysql" | 23:57 |

| acicula | done365: jaunt Virtualbox | 23:57 |
| jaunt | how do i install virtualbox? | 23:57 |
| acicula | done365: dont see why it would be that much more | 23:57 |
| adz | bean: you can laos run vmware | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | !virtualbox | jaunt | 23:57 |
| ubottu | jaunt: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 23:57 |
| faileas | hmm | 23:57 |
| acicula | jaunt: through the packet installer, add/remove programs or console apt-get/aptitude | 23:57 |

| Dr_Willis | firefly2442: that sounds... weird... | 23:58 |
| bean | jaunt: apt-get install virtualbox-ose | 23:58 |
| faileas | is there any way i can simulate the installation of a package i already have? i want to check how big the prerequisites of a package i want is, and i think the prerequisites are common files | 23:58 |
| Dr_Willis | firefly2442: you can set up sudo to allow specific users access to specific system commands. if you want more controll | 23:58 |
| mkanyicy | adz, did that command do what you want? | 23:58 |
| Seveas | firefly2442, no. You can't have your cake and eat it too :) | 23:58 |
| firefly2442 | hmm, yeah I thought that might be true... ;) | 23:59 |
| mkanyicy | Seveas, you can do that | 23:59 |
| SteveIgnorant | how would i make an iso bootable on an usb drive? (not ubuntu) | 23:59 |
| adz | mkanyicy: holy SHIT that worked! | 23:59 |
| jaunt | You can have your cake, but you can't eat it until tomorrow! | 23:59 |
| faileas | SteveIgnorant: unetbootin | 23:59 |
| mkanyicy | !language | adz | 23:59 |
| ubottu | adz: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 23:59 |
| adz | mkanyicy: sorry just really happy | 23:59 |
| done365 | acicula: good recommend, will try that...My performance has been severely hindered by the upgrade, and memory seems to be at the forefront of the issues. Jaunty out performed windows by bounds, but Karmic has been a step in the wrong direction for me. | 23:59 |
| mkanyicy | !yay | adz | 23:59 |
| ubottu | adz: Glad you made it! :-) | 23:59 |
| firefly2442 | SteveIgnorant, unetbootin | 23:59 |
