Dougwiserdoes 9.10 have xchat on the livecd where skeelol can boot into the install and ask questions about partitioning here01:00

mkquist__Joke_: np...  sounds to me like your xorg.conf file has the wrong settings in it now... if there is a backup then you just copy that over and log out01:26
jribjongbergs: sure, you can use framebuffer if you want01:26
jack5463jrib, Billard, when i try to run certain pages it tells me java script or adobe needs to be installed... but it won't install them. if i search flash apps in synaptic package manager and apply everything there it doesn't solve the problem01:26

ChrisMorganPalimpsest Disk Utility reports "DISK HAS MANY BAD SECTORS" (65541 to be precise), but I don't believe this is a problem but rather due to the necessity of a hard power off after a freeze.  It was suggested to use fsck, but as I see it this won't help convince the SMART chip on the drive it should try them again.  Any ideas?01:36

evondrknzz: yes it looks like the headers are already installed.02:11

dj_segfaultI just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10.  I now have mysql 5.0 (I need it for mythtv among other things).  The upgrade installed mysql-server-core-5.0 but not msql-server-5.0.  When I tried installing *that*, it said it needed mysql-client-5.0, which it won't install because mysql-client-5.1 is installed.  Has anyone else seen this?02:17
jribPC_Nerd101: no idea, but I'd guess the aptitude manual may have a clue (link on that page)02:17

Drknzzevon: yup02:22
WildAthearthehe02:22
evondrknzz: not finding any of them02:22
eeepcwifisharktooth: if it matters it connects fine to open networks.. so are drivers the issue?02:22
DrknzzWildAtheart: Well, i hardly doubt they arent XD02:23
jriblizk: add an extra entry in grub instead of deleting the working one, no?02:23
ChrisMorganiflema: it did the on-boot-fsck, still the same SMART complaint.  I expect I'll just have to tell it to not warn me.02:23
Drknzzevon: weird, plz wait02:23
jph_evon I don't know... I have never had this problem before... I did a clean install of 9.10 and at install i used tasksel as provided in the installation wizard to install OpenSSH however for some unknown reason I didn't install LAMP at that time... no when entering sudo tasksel it only list three options not the long list as before02:23
jetpackAlright guys, I have a USB game controller, and I want to use it as a media remote sort of deal on my computer. Anyone have any ideas? I think I am getting pretty close... I just need a little bump in the right dirrection02:23
lizkwell i want to concentrate on getting the number 100% correct, rather than play guessing games02:23
eeepcwifiit says no propietary drivers are in use and it gives none in the list02:23
WildAtheartjetpack google game controller to make sure its supported first02:23
eeepcwifisharktooth: it says no propietary drivers are in use and it gives none in the list02:24
sharktootheeepcwifi: with the right drivers can can do more, it is worth a try. I know monitor mode works with some drivers maybe the hidden net will work02:24
sharktootheeepcwifi:what router are you using?02:24
jetpackeeepcwifi: do other computers on the network connect right now?02:24
Drknzzevon: try installing this and see if configure tells xfree86 stuff is present: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libxxf86misc-dev02:24
jriblizk: you would have figured it out already.  The link I gave you earlier explains how the numbering works.  There's also the official grub 2 docs I guess02:25
eeepcwifisharktooth: wrt54gl jetpack: yes 1 windows and 2 iphones.. I also deleted and created the network on the iphone to make sure. The router is also new.02:25
jetpackWildAtHeart: I have. It works flawlessly as a game controller. I am using Joy2Key to convert buttons to key presses, but I can't get it to act like my media keys02:25
lizkjrib: thing is (i'm using alternate i386) top says "configuration grub-pc" yet the instructions & examples are for old grub with wrong numbering02:25
WildAtheartjetpack i am new to ubuntu.. not sure i can help you there..02:26
lizkjrib: will it actualy do the correct thing given the corrct number?02:26
iflemaChrisMorgan did fsck complained about smart?02:26

ChrisMorganiflema: it didn't complain about anything that I noticed02:26
adantehi guys, i stupidly did do-release-upgrade from an ssh session which died, now there are some dpkg-reconfigure processes that are preventing me from re-running do-release-upgrade - is it safe to just kill them and restart?02:26
pfred1I think I'm starting to see why Ubuntu wants to drop the gimp from future versions02:26
eeepcwifijetpack: i have 1 windows, desktop ubuntu  connected wired and 2 iphones connected wifi fine adn the router is 1 month old.02:26
jetpackeeepcwifi: try disconnecting and reconnecting the router just in case, and also double check the passphrase. I have an older router that glitches up a lot02:26
lizkjrib: i'm using the alternate install disk, when promped to write grub to mrbr i decline, then next screen it ask me for hdx,x, gut gives old instructin for grub102:26

serengetihyperstream: I think something like netstat -anp |grep processname02:27
fulviociao02:27
lizkjrib: oh, that could make it different from live? it says "grub-pc" in title of that screen, grub-pc is grub2 no?02:28

jph_evon any thoughts?02:28

ripI tried installing 3 different distros (Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE) on a laptop with a nvidia geforce card in order to find out if any would be able to suspend (sleep) the laptop....  Under the default installation of the three distros, only Fedora successfully suspended the laptop via the included pm-suspend utility from pm-utils and only Fedora, by default, installs the nouveau driver while the other two seem to install the 'vesa' driver02:32
rip, by default.  Is suspend likely to be working on Fedora exactly because of the nouveau driver?  And does this mean, if I install the nouveau driver, it will work on Ubuntu also?02:32

serengetijokeem, so was it like that from the beginning or maybe you have installed some new drivers?02:39
eeepcwifidevilwithaheart: yes I've done it several times cus I thoguht I was typing something wrong until I tested teh settigns on my iphone and it worked.02:39
ripHow does one install nouveau driver (for nvdia video cards) on Ubuntu?  I assume it involves installing 'xserver-xorg-video-nouveau', but then what do I do?02:39
evondrknzz: are you really giving up on me? :-( there are no more packages i have to install?02:39
pfred1is there any way I can downgrade the version of the gimp shipped with Ubuntu 9.10 to a useful version?02:39
jetpackeeepcwifi: I was just going to have you un-hide it and see if it will connect unhidden. Have you filed a bug report?02:39
noshelterrip: search for the nvidia-glx package, or go to the nvidia website02:40
Dr_Willis!pin | pfred102:40
eeepcwifijetpack: I can try unhiding it.. sec...02:40
ubottupfred1: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto02:40
Drknzzevon: im sleepy now, gotta go bed, and, as  far as i can go undersgtanding the problem, it might be the developers fault this time :S02:40
ripnoshelter: I don't want to install Nvidia's proprietary drivers though02:40
jokeemserengeti:  well i was in the recovery for ubuntu, and I press fix graphic errors.02:40
ripI prefer free drivers02:41
noshelterrip: sorry, not sure of a free version of them02:41
Drknzzevon: i have to go university tomorrow :p02:41
Dr_Willisrip:  often i find to get all teh features -  You have to use the drivers from nvidia02:41
jph_jrub  http://paste.ubuntu.com/362322/02:41
eeepcwifijetpack: it works with my network broadcasting02:41
jolarenHow do I activate sound in rdesktop? and is it possible to multi client with rdesktop?02:41
eeepcwifijetpack: so the issue is that its hidden.02:41
Dr_Willisrip:  on some box's i cant even get proper resolutions without the nvidia drivers installed.02:41
evondrknzz: i hear you. I have work in the morning.02:42

jolarenHow do I activate sound in rdesktop? and is it possible to multi client with rdesktop?02:42
Dr_Willismkquist__:  it uses the default autoconfiguring feature of X.02:42
ripDr_Willis: I'm not that tempted to get all the features... I only want to get suspend (sleep) working on a laptop... and the nouveau free driver seems to be able to sleep my laptop since it is intstalled by default on Fedora... so that's why i'm asking how one installs nouveau on Ubuntu...02:42
mkquist__will it crash or remake?02:42
Dr_Willisrip:  never tried them. so no idea02:42
frogzoomkquist__: it won't remake - X will fail to start02:43
Dr_Willismkquist__:  neither.. it AUTOCONFIGURES.02:43
ripDr_Willis: I can get the laptops full resolution with the nouveau driver on Fedora02:43
jetpackeeepcwifi: are you sure that you had the network ID in exactly right?02:43
mkquist__Dr_Willis: so what if jokeem just removes his xorg.conf... so will it reconfigure?02:43
Dr_Willismkquist__:  it autoconfigures as needed upon X startup. In theory.02:43
eeepcwifijetpack: yes its 4 letters not easy to mess up :)02:43
Dr_Willismkquist__:  it does not make a xorg.conf02:43
mkquist__Dr_Willis: so its almost like dpkg-reconfigure-xserver?02:43
eeepcwifijetpack: its shat.. :) so i know i typed it right02:43
mkquist__lets find out... hmm02:44
eeepcwifijetpack: not sure if you saw but it did connect when it was broadcasting.02:44
Dr_Willismkquist__:  i have severla machines with no xorg.conf - some need it for special features/settings02:44
pfred1Dr_Willis pinning seems useful if you have things that work02:44
oorahcan anyone help me with ps3 errors?02:44

frogzooRainbowEyes: there's Task Juggler, and there's Project02:49
Bogomore exactly a mail server problem...02:49
jetpackeeepcwifi: Huh... No idea. I would file a bug report, and then just un-hide it for now if you need it. It is probably a bug that is unique to your hardware.02:49
RainbowEyesokay, thanks frogzoo, I'll look it up ^^02:49
SolarisBoyand Planner RainbowEyes02:50
mkquist__jokeem: how about you open a terminal and type - sudo mv /etc/xorg.conf /etc/xorg.conf.old02:50
jeffreyfoorah, if you want to try, there are several tutorials on the internet on how to install Ubuntu or other distro onto the PS3.  You need the PowerPC (mac) version as the processor is a power series02:50
eeepcwifijetpack: I'll do that. Thanks for the help02:50
mkquist__jokeem: and try a reboot, doesnt work come back in live cd02:50
RainbowEyesSolarisBoy: okay, I'll check that out too :)02:50
jokeemmkquist__:  will do02:50
serengetijokeem: so you got the distortion for no apparent reason and then went to recovery and clicked Fix graphics errors?02:50
SolarisBoyresolv.conf defines which dns servers you use amongst other things02:50
jetpackHey guys, I am trying to configure a gamepad with joy2key but am having trouble mapping it to my media keys. Anyone have any ideas? More info at http://paste.ubuntu.com/362325/02:50

jokeemaround*02:51
frogzooRainbowEyes: s/Planner/Project02:51
serengetimquist__: it won't work if he's on livecd, will it?02:51
SolarisBoyit also defines a search pattern to be appended to the end of hostnames like mydomain.net02:51
jph_jrib before we get to that let me run this thought by you, we are behind firewalls here I have access to modify them... that server has the following and only the following ports opened up on it 22,80,433,53    could this be the root of my problem?02:51
serengetimquist__: I mean it's not /etc/foo but /media/????/foo02:51
jokeemmkquist__: mv: cannot stat `/etc/xorg.conf': No such file or directory02:51
RainbowEyesfrogzoo: so you meant Planner?02:51
framelinuxHello!02:52
oorahjeffreyf, i know that, however the tutorials say nothing about the error messages i get. i've checked several of them for weeks02:52
eeepcwifibogo: whats your server problem?02:52
mkquist__jokeem: srry sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old02:52

SolarisBoyahh i see02:53
jokeemmkquist__: what u mean? in the recvoer02:53
jribjph_: hmm.  Well apt-get either uses http or ftp (looks like that should be ok). As for the dns lookups, I don't know what you need to do firewall-wise if anything02:53

SolarisBoyyou need to try resolving whatever apt is trying to resolve against your dns server would be likely one of the first steps if you feel its dns related02:54
tahow reliable is virtualbox_02:54
jeffreyfoorah    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PlayStation_302:54

LinuX2halfWell I've try to add the sourceforge source code and already I can't seem to update my browser04:00
jokeemARRRRRRRRRRRR. Wont let me abckup, permission denied!!!!04:00
mkquist__serengeti: so which mozilla directory?04:00
jokeemFFFFFFF**04:00
mkquist__jokeem: sudo04:00
hiexpothat should fix it04:00
LinuX2halfDoes anyone know to resolve this issue....?04:00
jokeemsudo what? :S04:01
mkquist__jokeem: try sudo whatever command you were trying to backup04:01
mkquist__jokeem: oh your in nautilus04:01
hiexpoLinuX2half: - whays the prob04:01
jokeemi was draging folders onto my usb.. lol04:02
ToastedPinejokeem: you could try sudo nautilus, then you could just drop drag things04:02
mkquist__jokeem: gksudo nautilus04:02
jokeemToastedPine:  ok04:02
helperis there any program like vnstat but in real time ? coz vnstat either need 5 min or manual to update ! thx04:02

LinuX2halfhiexpo: Alright, I'm running a 3.5.7 version of firefox and I want to upgrade the browser to 3.6 but when I run the browser as root it doesn't display the "check for updates" option.04:02
serengetijokeem: in the terminal, do04:03
serengeti"cd ~/Desktop"04:03
mkquist__jokeem: look in media04:03
puffHm, I tried to install the firefox daily build via the PPA.  This broke, citing dependency on abrowser-brnading and firefox-branding.   I installed those packages manually and firefox then refused to start, instead popping up a warning "History Tree Extension - Overlay Initialization Error."04:03
jokeemNo media?04:03
ToastedPineO_O04:03
mkquist__serengeti: wont that just put him in the root folder?04:03
LinuX2halfhiexpo: I've also added the source code and the daily build.04:03
serengetijokeem: then "sudo tar -cf moz.tar /media/disk/home/YOURUSERNAME/.mozilla"04:03
eeepcwifihelper: for realtime I use iftop and for logging purposes I use ntop04:04
serengetimkquist: it should put him on the livecd desktop04:04
hiexpoLinuX2half: - i am not sure about that but i think you have to download and install it manually04:04
mkquist__serengeti: if he sudo nautilus?04:04
puffI then removed the daily build PPA from my /etcapt/sources.list and then apt-get removed firefox, apt-get removed abrowser-brnading, apt-get removed firefox-branding.   Installed firefox, it failed to run.  Removed it and reinstalled it two or three times and it finally is sorta working, though it'smissing the /usr/bin/firefox alias to /usr/bin/firefox-3.004:04
puffAny advice here?04:04
serengetimkquist__: but he can't see the partitions if he does sudo nautils04:04
helpereeepcwifi, what i need is to check the bandwidth usage in real time like if my users are downloading how much !! Does ntop do this?04:05
mkquist__why not?04:05
mkquist__serengeti: why not?04:05
serengetimkquist__: dunno, but that's what he said.04:05
jokeemok ff backed up04:05
jokeemcan i sue that command for other dirctories?04:05
jokeemuse*04:05
mkquist__serengeti: cause he started in diff place04:05
serengetijokeem: you have that moz.tar file on the desktop?04:06
ToastedPinehmmm, it's a long shot, but chmod 777 <path to folder> might be able to make copying possible.04:06
jokeemserengeti:  yes04:06
serengetijokeem: have you checked what's inside?04:06
jokeemser yeah04:06
jokeemserengeti:  firefox.. my addons.. etc04:06
jokeembookmarks04:07
eeepcwifihelper: ntop will graphically track overall usage as well as individual ip traffics going through your gateway. It keeps statistical logs of everything and updates realtime. Its webbased and uses its own built in webserver. Iftop is great for getting current traffic based on an interface (eg. iftop -i eth0) but it doesn't keep statistical logs. I manage 30 servers and use iftop for quick spot checks if its running slow and ntop for history to see when / 04:07
jokeemserengeti:  ill use that command for toher folders?04:07
serengetijokeem: you can but you might run out of space04:08
jokeemill delete as I go serengeti04:08
serengetijokeem: the thing is that your livecd desktop has very little free space04:09
eeepcwifihelper: ntop also gives you top users and you can go in and see exactly what traffic they were doing and when. As well as their throughput.04:09
mkquist__serengeti:  isnt he copying this to a usb drive?04:09
LinuX2halfhiexpo: oh okay then thanks04:09
serengetijokeem: so you might want to do "cd /media/Lexer" in the terminal so that the files end up on the pendrive04:09
jokeemmkquist__:  yea lol04:09
jokeemok04:09
serengetimkquist__: I told him to do cd ~/Desktop before ;)04:09
eeepcwifihelper: I think ntop is what yoru looking for if you need statistical history. but if you just need to do a quick check on who is doing what right now then iftop provides a very low overhead command line interface thats really quick and easy.04:10
ToastedPinehttp://www.lifehacker.com.au/2007/12/access_linux_files_from_window/   <--- copy firefox backup in windows?04:11
LinuX2halfWhen will ubuntu finished packaging firefox 3.6?04:11
eeepcwifihelper: but ntop can be used to see who is doing what right now as well, but is more resource intense by nature.04:11
hiexpoLinuX2half: - no prob sorry i couldn't help04:11
kad_ eeepcwifi  downloaded ntop! http://localhost => for web log?04:11
mkquist__LinuX2half: chrome...04:11
LinuX2halfhiexpo that's alright, but I thanked for your effort04:11
zenlunaticLinuX2half: probably april04:11
serengetijokeem: before you do the reinstall, please check that all the files really are in the archives you create and on the usb drive, ok? :P04:12
LinuX2halfThat long...?04:12
mkquist__jokeem: I'm still of the opinion that its worth on more reboot after editing the xorg.conf file...  If that works your done.. no reinstall04:12
jokeemserengeti:  lol i will04:12
jokeemmkquist__:  doubt it will lol04:12
mkquist__jokeem: youd be surpised, i used to install when i ran into problems before, but now ive found that it can usually be fixed pretty easily and you learn04:13
eeepcwifikad: you need to configure it's conf file and then connect to it by port.. eg http://localhost:5423 or what ever port you configure it to run on04:13
mkquist__jokeem:  oops- in the process04:13
jokeemmkquist__:  I guess, but im on the verge of smashing things..04:13
serengetimkquist__: I agree, reinstalling is generally against the linux spirit ;) but if he's already so much late...04:13
eeepcwifiKad: I use ntop in OpenSuSE and its config file is located in /etc/sysconfig/ntop04:13
mkquist__serengeti: i know, but thats one thing that has not been done... and its simple04:14
eeepcwifikad: you need to configure the interface it listens on, port it will run its webserver on and what user it will run its webserver with and other settings for performance04:15
jph_If I want to prevent apache from starting on boot where do i go to change that04:15
serengetijokeem: I have to go anyway. you can always try the xorg.conf thing after you've backed up your stuff and just check if the system boots ok04:15
LinuX2halfokay then I'll wait patiently until its furnished just like last time04:15
jokeemARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!04:15
jokeemwait serengeti04:15
serengetijokeem: ?04:15
jokeemplease,04:16
jokeemhow can i use that command to backup other things04:16
jokeemsaying no such file or dir04:16
jokeemhow can i do all of it at once.. actually04:16
viersya.....04:16
LinuX2halfis there some way where I can see the progress of the firefox version development..?04:17
eeepcwifikad: for example I run mine with this: /usr/bin/ntop -P /var/lib/ntop -i eth0 -u wwwrun -w <INTERFACE_IP>:5423 -b -n -z04:17
eeepcwifiThe -P is where it will store its database -b -n -z are for performance reasons04:17
LinuX2halfI'm not sure if there's a site to track the progress of the developing version online......04:17
jokeemcan I backup from windows? cause I have a large aprtiotn there.. ill just backup the whole l ot04:17
mkquist__serengeti: lookit the output of glxinfo |grep vendor, unknown chip id. cant guess, so the machine doesnt know what its dealing with04:17
elnurhello04:18
mkquist__jokeem: windows doesnt usually read from ext partitions...04:18
serengetijokeem: maybe try tar cvf everything.tar /media/disk/home/yourusernamehere    - it would copy your entire home dir04:18
eeepcwifikad: you'll see that i specify port 5423 so when connecting to its web interface i use http://<IP>:542304:18
ranjani am not being able to b rouse my network place from nautilus  it is giving an error message of Failed to retrieve share list from server   any help would be of great help04:18
jokeemserengeti:  ok, cheers04:18
mkquist__serengeti: if he has a windows part- why  not back up there?04:19
jokeemserengeti:  it's working :)04:19
aliendude3500Are there any devs on here that are working on the new software center rating system? I was looking at the concepts and I noticed that the term "Ubuntu Single Sign-On Account" is used. Is this just your Launchpad account?04:20
serengetimkquist__: I guess it doesn't make much difference04:20
eeepcwifikad_: but you may want to look at iftop its much simpler and great for quick spot checks04:20
mkquist__serengeti: more space?04:20
rwwaliendude3500: I'm not familiar with the spec, but I would imagine so, yes.04:20
=== drew is now known as Guest40154

andydbzeeok. so i can't play dvds04:21
rwwaliendude3500: since Launchpad is what's used for Ubuntu One (and practically everything else).04:21
serengetimkquist__: touche. but maybe the usb drive has enough room? we'll see...04:21
aliendude3500Well, if any devs see this, I think it would be much better to make the dialog just say "Launchpad account" instead of "Ubuntu Single Sign-On account". MUCH less redundant. :)04:21
andydbzeeand i think i deleted all my media dependencies04:21

zilkomaaghthor, ok is this the right way to add those lines? http://paste.ubuntu.com/362396/05:52
Out_Coldshove it blakkheim.... probably played with linux during it's early 90s phase :p05:52

priyaall i want to do is run this app with launcher but it dont work for me05:53

Out_Coldblakkheim, well then we are both on the same page lol... not hard, but definitely not easy05:53
zilkomaaghthor, k i'll restart now..05:54
OasaCan any one please tell me why they quit pidgin and moved on to empathy ?05:54
ghthorzilkomaa, ahh, wait those aren't the right lines, need  "set root=(hd0,1)", "chainloader (hd0,1)+1"05:54
blakkheimOasa: angry teenagers who wanted webcam chat05:54
zilkomaaghthor, eheh okoko05:54
Out_ColdOasa, cuz they are lame05:54
OasaPidgin now supports webcam chat.05:55
blakkheimOasa: it didn't when they switched05:55
rumpsyExplore2: http://packages.debian.org/lenny/netselect-apt, check it here05:55
Out_Coldso if enough people use pidgin over empathy (which i think is so far the case) they may switch back05:55

Coded1im thinking of purchasing a new rig in a few months and want to get something in the mid-high end that plays nice with linux, it's been a while and I'm hearing great things about amd cpus but not so much with ati gpu's + linux and also that amd mother boards don't play very well with nvidia. what kind of rigs do you guys run, where can I go for further info?05:56
blakkheimCoded1: avoid ati05:56
blakkheimCoded1: just build it yourself05:57
zilkomaaghthor, ok changed..05:57
Out_ColdCoded1, ati works great in laptops but not towers.. and nvidia always has driver issues that are difficult to fix05:57
zilkomaaghthor, restarting now..05:57
ghthorzilkomaa, kk05:57
Coded1blakkheim, that I know (previous 9800 owner) and I will be building it myself, been checking around on newegg.com but scared if I get an AMD mb chipset im gonna paint myself into a corner, are there mobos that are friendly to both amd/nvidia?05:58
scuniziOut_Cold: I've never found that with nvidia.. lately the newer cards might have issues because the driver available in ubuntu is pretty far behind the power curve05:58
blakkheimCoded1: not sure, i'm an intel guy05:58
Coded1AMD prices are almost too sweet to let go05:59
Out_Coldscunizi, i've seen a fair bit of issues especially with overscanning and new drivers failing to support old cards..05:59
Oasaia m an intel guy too05:59
Xcelli use asus / amd / nvidia / 0 problems.05:59
scuniziOut_Cold: new drivers and old cards don't mix well.. that's why there are 3 primary drivers for nvidia cards.. New .. Old.. and Older06:00
rumpsyBut you hate those things when you have single cpu06:00
Explore2when do i get this err? ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.20 port 22: No route to host06:00
Explore2lost connection06:00
Out_Coldscunizi, agreed but try telling that to the auto-updater06:00
Out_ColdExplore2, firewall06:01
wiggmpkI just installed Karmic Koala on my notebook, currently running kernel 2.6.31-17 amd64. Every time I try to suspend my notebook, it cuts to a black screen with a blinking cursor. I have to manually power it off every time. Please help!!06:01
Coded1Explore2, check to see if you have an ip address on that card06:01
scuniziOut_Cold: yep.. I never use the auto updater.. in fact I use the drivers from nvidia's site.. I just plan on reinstalling them on a kernel upgrade06:01
Explore2How?06:01
scuniziwiggmpk: your swap should be apx 2x of your ram for suspend to work06:02
Out_Coldscunizi, but that's where i see the issues with users.... that and overscan is one hellova ***06:02
rumpsyBut i donno how you guys do support for non-free drivers , o_O06:02
rumpsyi mean nvidia-glx06:02
Out_Coldrumpsy, we don06:02
Out_Coldt06:02
wiggmpkscunizi: 4 GB Physical RAM & 12 GB SWAP, not the issue :)06:02
ghthorzilkomaa, still no luck?06:03
Out_Coldrumpsy, nvidia issues for nvidia devs06:03
zilkomaaghthor, argh now there is two windows xp boot sections in grub other one says again error: no such partition and other one loads back to grub like i said before :(06:03
rumpsyEveryday, someone asking about 3d drivers, why don't they use default drivers for stability06:03
Coded1guess you have to pick the lesser of the evils with gpu's intel just sucks, amd is great value but doesn't work on nix, nvidia offers a lot more but is closed06:04
jazzwork with creative soundblaster cards? if  i have to use my sound card then fine because this is driving me nuts!06:04
rileyphi all06:04
jazzdoes linux ybuntu 9.10 ^06:04
rileypCan I get some help here with suspend06:04
mihaminarileyp: yep06:04
rumpsyi choosed to use nv driver as my default driver06:04
rileypand karmic06:04
scuniziwiggmpk: suspend and hibernate don't share a unified method of programming and can be very different from one machine to the next.. I'd search the forums for your laptop model to see what others have experienced and possible solutions06:04
Oasarileyp : Dont ask to ask. Just ask06:04
zilkomaaghthor, should i reinstall grub or something..06:05
rileypits a desktop and i have searched the forums for 3 days06:05
rileypto no avail06:05
rumpsyI know the power of default video drivers06:05
EastDallasjazz: I have on old SB Audigy Platinum in my desktop, works like a charm.06:05
Oasarileyp : YOur problem please06:05
wiggmpkscunizi: I have tried, also googled.. Looks like suspend/hibernate is a known issue with 9.10 and bug reports are filed.. Just taking a shot in the dark in the channel06:05
wiggmpkscunizi: you think a swap partition across a software raid would cause an issue with suspending06:05
Oasawiggmpk : No06:06
Myke1I have NO idea why hardware manufacturers make closed sourced drivers :(06:06
Oasalol Myke106:06
scuniziwiggmpk: that's a wrinkle .. maybe06:06
Myke1they dont make money on the drivers, they make money on the hardware06:06
rileypok upon suspend screen freezes and keyboard no reponsive as well as mouse system is frozen06:06
rumpsyJAzz, if you are using soundblaster card, modprobe appropriate driver06:06
wiggmpkOasa: no what?06:06
Out_ColdMyke1, to be better than the others... or at least different06:06
wiggmpkscunizi: doesnt seem like it would be an issue, it wasnt before06:07
Oasawiggmpk: It wont cauase trouble.06:07
rileypthe  suspend log log looks fine though06:07
ghthorzilkomaa, well I don't know then, to remove the second entry just remove it from /etc/grub.d/40_custom.  Maybe you should just try reinstalling grub with "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"06:07
wiggmpkOasa: any thoughts on why suspend is borked?06:07
Coded1Myke1, but if someone figures out a better way to do it they might feel bad06:07
scuniziwiggmpk: I'm not familure enough with raid to know06:07
Coded1wont anyone think of the corporations!06:07

rfgergrthnrewiggmpk, suspend with ubuntu has a long history of being broken06:07
jazzman im so angry right now, first cairo  goes down making my updates crazy and i did a clean install of ubuntu reinstall all my stuff, and now sound give me trouble.06:07
Oasawiggmpk : No idea. As you have said, Its a popular bug. Hope they fix it in Lynx.06:07
rfgergrthnrejazz, probably pulseaudio's fault06:07
wiggmpkOasa: so do I06:07
rileypI know its a common prob but i would liketo get on top of06:08
Myke1Well, its just a driver. They can concentrate on making the hardware and make drivers open sourced so that everyone who can make them better. no harm no foul06:08
wiggmpkrfgergrthnre: right, I remember.. However this is usually referred to as a regression.. suspend/hibernate should be a no brainer these days06:08
Myke1just my 2 cents06:08
jazzok lets find puse audio? would i have installed it inadvertently?06:09
rileypim using 2.6.31.1406:09
Out_Cold2 cents compared to millions :p06:09

Coded1just hype?06:11
Myke1Well, is it easy to dual boot Windows Xp and Ubuntu 9.10?06:11
rfgergrthnrewiggmpk, yep, it is regression... i dunno why, but things in ubuntu don't seem to stay in they work... look at x and audio... they were working fine in previous releases, but then they had to go and rewrite them and introduce lame bugs06:11

BinaryManI know its late so a lot of people are idling. however, would anyone still alive have any guesses why the cryptroot file stored in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d suddenly disappear?07:52
RaiN88How will I see errors in /var/logs?07:53
MyrttiRaiN88: you could try to boot to the recovery mode07:53
BinaryManalongside that, why would cryptsetup suddenly have a problem with the libgpg-error.so.0 library, causing the user to reinstall the libgpg-error package07:53
BinaryManthis is a problem i had about a week ago that i ended up solving, but never found out why everything regarding cryptsetup commited suicide on me.07:54
rumpsyRaiN88: each and every error will be logged in /var/logs so open it and check it07:54
mkquist__RaiN88: relax, it can be figured out, but not like what you are doing...  take your time and analyze...  but most of all relax.. geeze.  Usually its something simple, but it takes some problem solving.  Getting wound up wont solve anything07:55
RaiN88What if we'll use remote desktop?07:55
BinaryManRaiN88: what is the problem you're having?07:55
RaiN88It wont restart, It stuck in black screen07:56
BinaryMandefine it. One of your machines?07:57
RaiN88Myrtt: then what will I do?07:57
MyrttiRaiN88: check /var/logs07:57
mkquist__looking back, I'm guessing that, for whatever reason, grub is looking at the wrong place, so start there.  assuming you go ubuntu to install07:57
BinaryManRaiN88: I'm willing to help you with your problem. you have to answer my questions though.07:57
rumpsyRaiN88: Explain clearly, what happen , what you did...07:57

RaiN88Okay07:58
mkquist__RaiN88: or rumpsy07:58
BinaryManand /var/logs does not exist. what i believe Myrtti is referring to is a folder called /var/log, which holds logs about a variety of different services.07:58
BinaryManonce you can tell me more about your problem, i'll have a better idea of which log to look at.07:58

tnt_How are official kernel compiled ? When taking a kernel.org file and using the _same_ config as an official kernel, make-kpkg makes me a "xenu-linux-image" and .deb and not a simple linux-image one. (But I want a kernel with official config that supports both domU and non-domU .. but named linux-image)09:38

Myrttionats: karmic? officially, never09:41
EremiteYou're welcome, l3ns09:41
l3nsbut why it ain't detecting newer version available?09:41
Eremitel3ns, you dont have the newer version installed :D09:42
coz_l3ns,    update-manager -d09:42
l3nsEremite, yes and that's why I would want to upgrade it :D09:42
Eremitel3ns, do you have a cd burner and a CD or DVD?09:42
l3nscoz_, still the same..09:43
Eremitel3ns, if you have a DVD or CD burner and a CD, visit http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download09:43
coz_l3ns,   yes^^  you may want to burn the newer version... a clean install is far preferable then an upgrade09:44
l3nsbut i don't have a rom on this machine09:44
Eremitecoz_, you couldnt be more correct.  I upgraded instead of a fresh install to karmic, and there was soooo many problems.09:44
indusmkanyicy, hi09:44
indusmkanyicy, so what have you decided09:45
coz_Eremite,  it happens quite often  so  I understand :)09:45
l3nswhich is lts version, 9.10 or 9.04?09:45
indusl3ns, 10.0409:45
indus8.0409:45

l3ns???09:45
ardchoillel3ns: 8.04 and soon to be 10.0409:46
l3nsahh. when is 10.04 be released?09:46
EastDallasl3ns: Go to System > Administration > Software Sources:  then choose Normal releases in the Show new distribution releases drop-down menu09:46
ardchoille!lucid09:46
ubottuLucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+109:46
Myrttil3ns: as the 10.04 implies, april09:46
EremiteLucid in April, right?09:46
EmperiuMI think is better to install ubutu again09:46
EastDallasl3ns: then alt+f2 update-manager -d09:46
ardchoille10.04 (year.month)09:46
tm^xwhen is firefox 3.6 going to be in the repo?09:47
newbuntuserhi09:48
ardchoilletm^x: It won't, we don't get new versions unless it's part of a security upgrade or major bug fix09:48
EastDallasl3ns: I don't think you can upgrade directly to karmic.  You'll have to go to 8.10, then to 9.04, then to 9.1009:48
newbuntusersimple question I'm sure, I've searched all I can but am still having trouble with permissions09:48

StudentThanks EastDallas. You just solved my problem before I could finish typing it. :)09:57
StudentEastDallas Here it was: "I was using fedora and made a few folders and now I switched to Ubuntu and it's saying I cant access them because I'm not the owner. Can anyone help?"09:57
rumpsywait09:58
EremiteStudent, access them in terminal with sudo?09:58
newbuntuserEastDallas: yes all so I can change with file manager09:58
Guest90234okay09:58
EastDallasStudent: well, that's one way to solve it....you can change ownership using chown09:58
newbuntuserEastDallas: using my user account not rood09:58
newbuntuserroot09:58
ZykoticK9soreau, thanks you pushed me in the right direction!  mupen64plus.conf doesn't seem to have any joy mappings by default, so I originally tried to edit blight_input.conf which was referenced as the input plugin from mupen64plus.conf but swapping the buttons 4 and 5 ( A and B ) had no effect -- BUT the file mupen64plus.cfg did have the mappings and making the swap worked :)  Thanks again.09:58
StudentEastDallas: Yeah I still need to read up on the commands parameters.09:59
Guest90234does ubuntu 9.10 don't support Restart?09:59
newbuntuserEastDallas: It's a mount point so -R might not be ideal right?09:59
EastDallasnewbuntuser: you should be able to access after modifying the permissions using chmod.09:59
EremiteGuest90234, you can use reboot instead.09:59
rumpsyGuest90234: search that in synaptic package manager09:59
EastDallasnewbuntuser: Do you need to take ownership or change permissions?09:59
Guest90234Eremite how will I do that?10:00
luxoFluxStudent: sudo nautilus gives you a filemanager with root rights. Then set ownership of the files to your user.10:00
rww!gksudo10:00
ubottuIf 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)10:00
Guest90234what am I going to search rumpsy?10:00
EastDallasnewbuntuser: the -R would be appropriate is you want to change all of the contents to777, but that's pretty unlikely.10:00
StudentluxoFlux: Thanks for the advice. I'll keep that in mind.10:00
newbuntuserEast Dallas: chmod has no effect, and no error!10:00
EremiteType reboot instead of restart?  You were asking about terminal commands, no?10:00

zetherooso why are people saying to install the 32bit kernel ?10:18

StudentluxoFlux I was told that specific package isn't on 9.10. I'll try to find it out.10:49
rumpsytheadmin: this is command, sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /home/theadmin/mounted10:49

Miraclepsycho_oreos ok are there apps that only work in x86 or usually there both?10:50
theadminrumpsy: /home/theadmin doesn't exist. Why not use ~? This would be more universal.10:50
psycho_oreosMiracle, not off my head, but moreso are the drivers that could be an issue for example10:50
zetheroois there an Ubuntu chat for the 64bit version?10:50

hiexpook kool and where did ya get it in the rep's ?10:53
rwwzetheroo: 1) yes, 2) skype has a 64-bit version10:53
psycho_oreoszetheroo,  think its the same, except instead of it being marked as i386 its marked as x86-64.. unless otherwise it comes from ppa10:53
StudentMyrtti: Are you using 9.10?10:53
Myrttizetheroo: only thing I've done differently is that I got the alpha flash plugin from labs.adobe.com. Some people use other methods.10:53

testi_I can reach samba servers on debian lenny with smbtree (doing broadcast), but i can't reach samba servers running on karmic - though access and name resolving works, in case you know the hostname. Local network is an ipv4 network, however karmic samba listens on an ipv6 address - this shouldn't be a problem theoretically, but seems to be practically. What can I do on which side to solve this?11:03

rwwmeco: if you do "df -H", it'll use more readable units.11:06
zetheroocoz_: haha ... uh .. only my main machine :)11:07
hawodianyone here?11:07
coz_zetheroo,  one of the best ways I know to find out if issues show up is to actually give it a try...you already have the 32 bit cd ...download the 64 bit cd and install it and test it :)   you can always reinstall the 32 bit if you prefer that :)11:07
geirhajenda: Try pwsafe instead of a text file11:07
mecorww: I set up 8.04 on a 10GB partition. Now there's about 5.5 GB free. Is that enough to install 9.10 in addition?11:07
coz_meco,  you would be cutting it a bit close   ...not much room for downloads etc11:08
rwwmeco: It's doable, but I wouldn't recommend it.11:08
zetheroocoz_:: installing an OS is not the issue .. I have a lot of data and a lot of apps installed and configured as I want ... I wipe this system and start afresh means a lot more work than just installing an OS11:08
mecocoz_: Right11:08
mecorww: ok11:08
coz_zetheroo,  ah  ok that's probably what I meant about how important this install is11:09
zetheroocoz_: I have learned in Linux to really make sure making a change is going to make things better and not worse ... :)11:09
LaibschCan I have update-grub add "savedefault 1" to every entry in menu.lst instead of just "savedefault"?11:10
coz_zetheroo,  you should also keep in mind that backing up is part of the deal... I generally go by "if I cannot reinstall at any given moment I am probably doing something wrong "11:10
coz_zetheroo,  many applications have settings you can back up for reinstallation11:11
Studentcoz_ couldn't you make a separate partition for your home directory and keep files there then install ubuntu again and tell it not to touch the partition? (Just curious)11:11
zetheroocoz_: yes ...11:11
coz_Student,  that is alwyas an option11:11
zetheroocoz_: also living in Australia means I have sucky Internet  ... :P  ... so yeah ... just making sure its going to be worth it ... it sounds good ... but then again people are saying they have not been noticing any performance diff ...11:12
coz_zetheroo,  well your issue isnt performance but rather the system recognizing all of the memory right?11:13

homeboybut i need just if my gf tries to launch picasa, it asks for password11:14
homeboyany password that she don't know will do11:14
coz_zetheroo,  mm  ok understood... then the choice is dependent of if you want to go through the installation procedure and test the 64 bit version or not  right ?11:14
rumpsyhomeboy: remove your gf name from sudo11:15
zetheroocoz_: yep ... choices choices :)  ... I am looking up performance benchmarks online ... interesting stuff ...11:15
rumpsyhomeboy:goto useraccount, and then choose your gf account and uncheck administrate system in properties11:17

ksbalajirumpsy, enjoy yr free holiday! -bt firestarter- some problem. synaptic says -Package firestarter has no available version, but exists in the database. This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and never uploaded, has been obsoleted or  not available with the contents of sources.list,,,,,,12:01

montomhi guys i have installed a cairo-dock on ubuntu 9.10 and the main panel in hidden , i cant see the network manager and volume control .. anyone ..12:01
dnivramontom, is it that cairo-dock is covering those icons or is it that the network manager icon is not present there?12:01
rumpsyksbalaji: use this, apt-get install netselect-apt ans apt-get autoremove, apt-get clean12:02
rumpsyksbalaji: use this, apt-get install netselect-apt and apt-get autoremove, apt-get clean12:02

Dr_Willissaviorfromthenor:  depends on the app.  You can use Python for a great many tasks.. easy to learn.. powerfull... and so on12:28
saviorfromthenori see,12:28
AndreMorro[BR]I agree with Dr_Willis Python makes greats things12:28
Dr_Willismany of the support apps in ubuntu are in python. and theres tons of docs/examples/tutorials12:29
duffydackwhen you close a program in scale mode (compiz) does it do it properly or kill it dirty12:29

NoReflexHey guys! I need to give samba access to 15 users to a fileserver. I've setup 15 accounts with shell = usr/bin/nologin and with their home dirs = /var/samba/username - is it enough to enable the home dirs section of smb.conf?; i'm using karmic server13:10
steelnwoolDr_Willis: good, i've got a bunch of machines that i'm now thinking should have been LTS, so once i upgrade karmic, i'll just keep them at LTS.13:10
retrykarmic is not an LTS release13:10
steelnwoolNoReflex: your best bet is to probably test.13:10
retrynot every release is LTS steelnwool13:10
haurraDr_Willis: if I do this, it copies the content13:10
steelnwoolretry: i did not suggest it was.13:10
Dr_WillisNoReflex:  give them samba passwords with 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' also perhaps13:10
steelnwooli know. re-read what i asked and said.13:11
Dr_Willishaurra:  Hmm  thats annoying. :)13:11
retryyou said once you upgrade karmic, you'll keep them lts13:11
steelnwoolretry: i asked if i could upgrade karmic to LTS.13:11
Dr_Willishaurra:  there is a feature to make gnome show the mounted things on teh desktop automatically13:11

retrykarmic is the latest distro13:11

lsdlunaretry: thanks, i just realised i didnt use the mms url, used the http one lol13:12
AndreMorro[BR]haurra, you want a link of you share in the desktop??13:12

retrysorry I missed your original q13:12
steelnwoolnp. busy channel.13:12
sandeepbAndreMorro: its giving problem at swap mounting13:12
atrlAndreMorro[BR] are you really sure dhcdp eth0 is for the client, because I'm reading that dhclient eth1 es for client and dhcpd eth0 es for running the server13:12
Dr_WillisNoReflex:  a read of the samba books avail in the samba-doc package may be worth while13:12
haurraAndreMorro[BR]: yes please13:12
retryatrl, it doesn't matter which # you pick13:12

phox_Hi! So im trying to connect to my ubuntu from my windows pc, and i just installed samba, and it says a need some password and username. I tried the same as my username and password is for the ubuntu-comp, but it didnt work. What to do?13:12
pat|nGi just downloaded a theme and it is GDM-CompetingEntities.tar.gz how can i install it? it seems there's an error installing it...13:12
Dr_WillisNoReflex:  I recall there being some trick to make the users home's be a default share they access also with some settings.. saves a little effort at times13:12
Dr_WillisNoReflex:  /var/lib/samba has some neat configs also. :) that you proberly shouldnt be touching13:13
retryatrl, so if you're trying to have a server route traffic, one NIC would face the WAN, the other would face the LAN and serve DHCP assignments13:13
AndreMorro[BR]haurra, not sure how to do that...13:13
AndreMorro[BR]haurra, never done links to a samba share13:13
zetheroois there a way to be able to right-click on a file and select "open as root" or something ?13:13

Dr_Willispat|nG:  its very likely its a theme for the older versiion of gdm - the newer version in 9.10 is not very themeable13:14
pat|nGi see13:14
Dr_Williszetheroo:  i recall the ubuntu-tweak tool having a check box to add somthing like that.13:14
atrlretry yes I understand you but then with "dhcpd eth0" you server listen dhcpdiscover on eth0 interface13:14

atrlisn't it ?13:14
AndreMorro[BR]atrl, you don't actually need to run any commands to run the server13:15
Dr_Williszetheroo:  thers also nautilus scripting features to add it.  i recall there being some 'edit as root....'  thing somewhere13:15
retryphox_, samba has its own auth mechanism13:15
retryalthough I think you can tweak it to use user accounts via pam or something13:15
Dr_Willisphox_:  sudo smbpasswd -a user   to set the samba password13:15
Dr_Willisretry:  yea theres some way to sync the 2 passwords.. but ive never learned how. :)13:15

retrypat|nG, right click on a panel and add applets13:16
retrythere are applets for all that13:16
Dr_Willispat|nG:  or use conky for desktop  gizmos13:16
AndreMorro[BR]atrl, Basics: You install dhcp3-server, edit the "/etc/default/dhcp3-server" and modify the INTERFACES="" to your ethX that will listen on the network, then edit the /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf to configure the subnets and masks, the restart the dhcp3-server service... and it should flow13:16
retryDr_Willis, yeah willis most of the applets suck...tons of ram that is13:16
phox_Dr_Willis: okey, so i entered the ubuntu comp now. But there are no files on it! Which map am i currently reading, and how do i change that?13:16
AndreMorro[BR]retry, am I right?13:17
Dr_WillisI perfer the good old Windowmaker warf docklets.13:17

retrywhat's KSM all about?13:24
AndreMorro[BR]I think you can patch the kernel you're using, and recompiling13:24
AndreMorro[BR]instead of upgrading13:24
Audiblei havent tested it yet, but evidently it reuses the read-only pieces of memory to save memory13:24
retryit's not memory13:24
retryit's merging13:24
Audibleah :)13:25
retryKernel SamePage Merging is a recent linux kernel feature which combines identical memory pages from multiple processes into one copy on write memory region.13:25
AndreMorro[BR]Audible, KSM is a 2.6.32 feature13:25
AndreMorro[BR]that whats written in a few forums global13:25
Audibleyeah, i know13:25
Audiblei just wasnt sure if there was any nice little feature i could do so i didnt go through the whole recompile hassle13:26
Audiblemy system is already kinda stable ;)13:26
AndreMorro[BR]I see, but it says that only 2.6.32 accepts such patch13:26
retrywhy do you want it Audible13:26
AndreMorro[BR]retry, to save memory13:26

retryMrTorque, sure you can just cat a file into itself in a while loop13:56
s00pMrTorque: yes, it is possible13:56
AndreMorro[BR]s00p, uh... yeah, tahts helps to but, sometimes a update may crash your system just by adding something to where it shoudnt,13:56

s00pfair enough AndreMorro[BR]13:56

retrymeco , look for something that says video in it13:57
retryor graphics13:57
AndreMorro[BR]meco, it says Intel GM88 something13:57
s00pMrTorque: listen, ok? Your hard drive is the bottleneck, not dd. There is nothing you can do to speed it up.13:57
s00pExcept for getting a different hard drive, of course.13:57
MrTorqueis there no way to say: "these blocks are reserved, even if no data in them?"13:57
DSpairmeco: Run the command "lspci -v | grep -A 5 "Graphic"13:57
s00pNO! Hard drives CAN ONLY WRITE so fast!13:57
saviorfromthenorthen make a partition13:58
MrTorques00p: hm, ok.13:58
saviorfromthenorthat way its reserved13:58
s00pMrTorque: hard drives are bottlenecks in -most systems-, you hear? Writing to them is -slow- by comparison to RAM.13:58
mecoI'm not seeing anything intelligible...13:58
retryMrTorque, it's likely your drive doesn't write any faster than 100MB/sec and probably slower than that overall13:59
retryso do the math13:59
AndreMorro[BR]meco, ?13:59
s00pUnless you want to get 800GB of RAM or a new HD, MrTorque, there is no faster way.13:59
MrTorques00p: well, i can not change the bottleneck. i have to live with it13:59
retry10 sec to write 1G or 8000sec to write 800G13:59
retrythat's 133minutes or over 2 hours13:59
mecoAndreMorro[BR]: Well, I'm not seeing anything resembling Intel GM8813:59
saviorfromthenoryes hard drives have maximum write limit13:59

AndreMorro[BR]m__, Aplications -> Internet -> Empathy14:04
s00pI don't know if seeking is very optimal on compressed drives... but writing redundant (repetitive) data to them should be.14:04

riz0noh well, i'm not here to argue about what is considered on topic and off-topic. i joined, i presented a complaint regarding my wild blue and slow UBUNTU service, perhaps someone was going to come along and provide me with SUPPORT which would have sped up my experience using ubuntu and wild blue. i am truly sorry of my one off-topic line regarding wild blue upset you dearly to the point that it made you have to call me out in the channel abou14:15

retrymeco so it's some proprietary installer...does it have an uninstall option ?14:15
AndreMorro[BR]KrisKo, check the $PATH from root user14:15

chilli0Im not on the device.14:17
nomad111actually not mouse pointer but lets say the current gnome-terminal14:17
Piciriz0n: Why not forget it and just ask your *support* question again and perhaps someone can answer.  If you want to chat about random stuff whilst waiting for a response, we ask that you do so in #ubuntu-offtopic.14:18
grawitydhuv: But the ones from Mozilla work quite good too.14:18
retrydistro versions dont upgrade packages14:18
KrisKograwity: ok i'll put them to usr local lib.14:18
mecoretry: It doesn't respond to that switch14:18
dhuvgrawity: I prefer the Ubuntu package because it has better font rendering. Is there anyway to make the Mozilla package the same?14:18

retrymaybe it's all in your home dir or something14:19
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, try unounting with -f (force)14:19
dhuvgrawity: Fonts in other apps are fine, just Firefox has thinner fonts, is that something .fonts.conf can fix?14:19
grawitynomad111: It might be possible -- but always remember that it isn't always gnome-terminal. It might not even be running under X.14:19
chilli0kk14:20
grawitydhuv: Yep. Ubuntu's package is patched to respect GNOME's font settings. Official Mozilla builds, on the other hand, only use fontconfig settings (changeable through fonts.conf)14:20

AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, holly cr**14:25
disappearedngis there any software that allows to change dns?14:25
retryubuntu keeps changing so many basic things it's hard to know what old ways are not informing some GUI front end tool14:25
retryand thus breaking things14:26
grawitychilli0: NO.14:26
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, didn~t new that14:26
phox_I share some folders over the local network, but then i try to open a folder from my win-pc, it says that the path isnt found. What could be the problem? I have samba.14:26
chilli0disappearedng,  Maybe host file ?14:26
KrisKograwity: no, it doesn't14:26
disappearedngcause I use a vpn14:26
AndreMorro[BR]disappearedng, you can manually do it by editing /etc/resolv.conf (sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf)14:26
grawitychilli0: I think you are looking for "e2label" instead...14:26
grawityKrisKo: Then add it.14:26
disappearedngum, like dnsmasq?14:26
grawityKrisKo: Or, pastebin the entire ~/.profile if you can.14:26
chilli0grawity,  Whats that ?14:26
retrylike today for example I used userdel to remove a user from the sytem and when I tried to add them back in wtih the GNOME frontend , it was all complaining about user already existing and what not14:26
PcPixelIs there somewhere that documents how the firewall in Ubuntu Server works? I want to deploy one, but I need to be sure I can control the firewall on boot.14:27
retryPcPixel, just install some frontend tool...there are plenty that make it easy like firestarter14:27
grawitychilli0: It's a program to change the filesystem label of an ext2 partition.14:27
saviorfromthenormassive questions14:27
grawityPcPixel: Are you talking about ufw or iptables?14:27
KrisKograwity: the only line there uncommented is: test -z "$PROFILEREAD" && . /etc/profile || true14:27
nomad111is it possible to make find return files only14:27
nomad111not folders14:27
chilli0grawity,  Its not ext2 o=14:27
PcPixelgrawity: uiptables14:27
PcPixelretry:" no GUI. this is a server box. no GUI14:27
grawitychilli0: ext[234] are the same in this case.14:28
chilli0grawity,  Its nfs or some windows crap14:28
AndreMorro[BR]PcPixel, disable ufw and write yours using iptables14:28
grawityPcPixel: iptables is an interface to 'netfiler' kernel module, and it's available all the time, even on boot. It's not Ubuntu-specific. And it has a lot of docs all over the googles.14:28
chilli0grawity,  Anyway to change the mount point name ?14:28
airtonixPcPixel, ufw is the clie version of gufw which are just both frontends to iptables... however they are fairly simplistic in their application14:28
dhuvgrawity: hintstyle is set to hintslight14:28
grawitychilli0: NTFS? It's not crap... in any case, 'ntfslabel'14:28
retryi have never seen a definitive iptables script that covers all the weird things that people can do to your packets14:29
PcPixelgrawirty: right, but most other distros ive seen has an iptables script on boot that loads rules. ubuntu server doesnt have that, so im wondering how it remembers the rules youve put in place14:29
chilli0grawity,  I said some windows crap o/14:29
phox_I share some folders over the local network, but then i try to open a folder from my win-pc, it says that the path isnt found. What could be the problem? I have samba, and already tried in #samba, no help there.14:29
retryPcPixel, oh it has it somewhere14:29
retrythere's no more /etc/init.d/iptables?14:29
grawitychilli0: Dude, NTFS is awesome.14:29
PcPixelretry: nope.14:29
grawitychilli0: (Yes, I know it's a Windows thing.)14:29
chilli0Ok.14:29

PcPixelretry: in any version of Ubuntu Server i've looked at i havent seen one14:29
PcPixelevent.,d? lkemme checlk14:29

chilli0grawity,  Installing now14:30
retryit's a very simple file14:30
AndreMorro[BR]PcPixel, write your own, the put it in /etc/rc3 (maybe 2) as SXXfirewall or something like it...14:30
retrythat has your DNS entries14:30
AndreMorro[BR]S means it wil start, XX its the order,14:30
guest2any one know about hadoop or hbase can help  me???????????14:30
grawityairtonix: NTFS has symlinks, it's just that Windows XP and older did not support them.14:30
disappearedngok so let say my first dns censors sites, will me secondary dns entries be used to retrieve failed attempts from 1?14:30
PcPixelAndre: Ah, so I jus thave to add my own14:30
grawitydisappearedng: Depends on how the "censoring" is done.14:30
retrydisappearedng, depends14:30
airtonixgrawity, junctioning is hardly a something i would call a comparable symlink provider14:31
retryyeah exactly14:31
disappearednglet say if censorship blocks out dns14:31
AndreMorro[BR]PcPixel, you're right, just be shure to able your SSH connections14:31
retryif it it censors by resolivng you to some IP and saying no bad14:31
retrythen NO14:31
chilli0grawity,  No im not. Whats it called in the respos ?14:31
retryit won't14:31
grawitychilli0: ntfsprogs14:31
disappearedngum,14:31
retryif censor means it won't return an IP record at all14:31
retrythen yes it would14:31
disappearedngok cool14:31
airtonixgrawity, i do however wish ubuntu used a filesystem that allowed for per node permission systems like windows provides14:31
Talon_I followed this guide here: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-easily-share-your-wireless-connection-in-ubuntu-9-10/ and got internet connection sharing half working. It seems on boot, ethernet is initialized before wireless gets a chance, then pc's on the ethernet cant get the internet unless i disconnect my ethernet and reconnect it after wireless starts up..14:31
grawityairtonix: NTFS symlinks act exactly the same way as Unix symlinks.14:31
PcPixelok ill give that a shot. i finally have a chance to let ubuntu shine at work, so i wanrt to be sure i can secure the OS when it goes public14:31
Talon_any ideas how to fix this?14:31
disappearednganything to dynamically change my resolver? cause my resolver gets rewritten all the time14:31

chilli0grawity,  Thanks. But that computer just lost internet o=14:32
AndreMorro[BR]disappearedng, sometimes (I Do this) the DNS its now blocking, but all traffic goes to a proxy (like squid) and it blocks there...14:32
Piciguest2: I don't think anyone here is familiar with it.  You may want to ask in #ubuntu-server or #httpd (the apache channel)14:32
grawityairtonix: Got any examples on how they are different?14:32

airtonixsaviorfromthenor, you need to be more specific next time when you want to have network monitoring (there are many aspects to it)14:51

ubottuchilli0: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)14:51
pawansleep not coming14:51
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, wireshark is about inspecting the contents of the network data...14:51
Myrttipawan: elsewhere. continuing this thread of conversation might end up you getting muted or removed from the channel14:51

jellowchilli0: Will your system not boot ?14:52
chilli0Im connected to the computer locally. but it cant go out to the internet14:52
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, but typically a person wanting to "see the network traffic" means they want to see the connections and the traffic speed of those connections ... is this the case with you ?14:52
chilli0It says there are no valid connections found.14:52
clusty_hey14:52
saviorfromthenorhehe, i was hoping to try airtonix on my classmates who download using torrent in our public wifi14:52
clusty_where is the new grub config file?14:53
chilli0Yet it connects to LAN.14:53
pawani want the answer14:53
clusty_i see no /boot/grub/menu.lst14:53

pawanok14:53
Sargot_need_helpis there i possibility to install a i386 .deb under 64-bit ubuntu?14:53
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, so you want to see connections & speeds or the contents of each data packet ?14:53
jellowchilli0: could you post the out put on pastebin of "sudo ifconfig"14:54
AndreMorro[BR]pawan, do this, go to sleep before you mom find's out what you're doing on the internet and get you grounded...14:54
pawangood advice14:54
chilli0jellow,  Are you sure you mean ipconfig ?14:54
pawanu too do like this or what14:54
saviorfromthenori am getting so tired of slow connections due to torrent downloads of others who share the wifi network14:54
jellowchilli0: i mean ifconfig14:54
chilli0http://pastebin.com/m3866182814:55
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, if you want to monitor connections and speeds passing through or from your own computer i suggest jnettop. if you want to see connections from other computers on your own subnet you might like to try out etherape14:55
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, try "sudo ping 200.180.33.66"14:55
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, see if its pinging...14:55

pawanand my life14:56
Jimi_NeutralAnyone know why I cannot download the 32 bit server edition of karmic, or is there not one?14:56
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 (google public dns)14:56
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, in the case of desiring priority on the connection there is some things you can do providing the wifi modem (and the internet connection it connects to is yours)...14:56

AndreMorro[BR]Jimi_Neutral, underneath the Green Download, theres a Alternate Download Options,14:58
AndreMorro[BR]Jimi_Neutral, you can choose 32bit from there14:58
Myrttisaviorfromthenor: if you don't have access to the router/hub, you'll probably not have any means of getting that information. Also, be aware that in some jurisdictions packet sniffing etc. are illegal.14:58
coz_Jimi_Neutral,   mm I only see the 64 bit version let me keep checking14:58
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, you won't really be able to determine that if they have encryption and use a non standard port for their torrent software... maybe generalised traffic speeds will indicate this14:58
saviorfromthenorbecause when i looked up how to stop torrent using the router, they just it was not thateasy14:58

saviorfromthenorill do that15:00

AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, great, so, open terminal, edit /etc/network/interfaces and remove everything till stays just with the "lo" interface configuration, and restart the system15:01

airtonixsaviorfromthenor, it's a fairly extensive topic. but generally you would desire to have a switch seperate from the modem so you can put a computer between the two in order to apply squid traffic shaping rules15:04

Jimi_NeutralAndreMorro[BR], nop its fine, i totally missed the alternate download link lol15:05
Myrttipawan: what?15:05
Jimi_NeutralAndreMorro[BR], ty again15:05
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, despite its term it provides traffic shaping rules over various ports, source & destination IP address15:05
pawannothing15:05
nabilerUSUL, thats exactly how mine is, but cant do anything, the mount point is /vms15:05
AndreMorro[BR]Jimi_Neutral, yw15:05
maverickGuest83165: do you mean the desktop environment (GNOME) or the special effects like wobbly windows?15:06
pawani am going to sleep15:06
erUSULnabil: make folders with sudo. then assing that folders to yourself or others as you see fit15:06
pawanis that okay15:06
maverickpawan: gn :P15:06
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, but again, if they use random ports and encryption then your task moves out of reach of software you can use on ubuntu15:06
Myrttipawan: please do15:06
saviorfromthenori think i came across that traffic shaping thing, does that mean that packets are checked before they arrive to their destination?15:06
Guest83165maverick: I meant GNOME one....I am using wubi15:06
pawangod give me good sleep15:06
erUSULnabil: the other option (i do not like it) is to just chown the mount point to yourself15:06
nabilerUSUL, i made the mount point during ubuntu setup, so how do i assign......okok nvm =P15:07
chilli0AndreMorro[BR],  Now I cant connect to the thing15:07
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, sure about it?15:07
maverickGuest83165: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm using the console (Ctrl + Alt + F1)15:07
chilli0Yeh15:07
saviorfromthenorairtonix: if they use random ports will i still see their ip?15:07
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, have fisical access to the machine?15:07

* Hexidismal needs help to divert system memory to graphics card (Ubuntu 9.10_amd_64 with ATI 4500 serie card)15:08
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, also possible...15:08
t0rcUbuntu Karmic / GRUB keeps booting slower and slower. Any thoughts? My HDD seems fine - it's not telling me its dying.15:08
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, by remote things, you should get a fixed ip, its better to work with, and15:08
chilli0AndreMorro[BR],  It was static before.15:08
saviorfromthenorthis place is so cool15:08
arcanenixtrue :)15:08
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, thats its why was unmanageble...15:08
chilli0AndreMorro[BR],  You told me to delete my stuff from the confi15:08
aron_la15:08
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, yes.. but you will have a hard time applying traffic shaping rules to just torrents because then there are 64 thousand possible ports you will have to apply the rule to.. (unless of course you disable uPNP on your internet modem and lock them out of the port forwarding inteface so that you have control over which ports they are allowed to use)15:09
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, didin't knew it was fixed by hand thogh...15:09
Talon_I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, I followed the forums ics guide to share my internet on eth0, on reboot, eth0 starts before wireless connects, so eth0 is NOT sharing the net, I haveto restart it after wireless connects... How do I fix this so i don't haveto manually restart eth0 from network manager every time i boot?15:09

t0rcUbuntu Karmic is also initializing gnome-do before it starts compiz - or failing to start compiz all together. Help?15:09
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, i suggest you do some research on the topic of squid ... there are a few threads on the ubuntu forums about this15:09
maverickGuest83165: are you running it from the CD?15:10
saviorfromthenorreally? that much? wow, well maybe i can just resort to confronting them when i catch them15:10
chilli0AndreMorro[BR],  How can i restart my network ?15:10
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, what do you mean ?15:10
maverickchilli0: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart15:10
Guest83165maverick: no, told u that using wubi installer15:10
chilli0ty15:11
airtonixsaviorfromthenor, you will find other programs on linux that do traffic shaping, one is for userland only (trickle) and a few other simplfied attempts to create interfaces for squid.15:11
maverickGuest83165: then i dont have an idea, try re-asking your question15:11

ewookalienn: that's what I thought you had to do manually.15:21
AndreMorro[BR]alienn, make sure your user is in the sudoers15:21
AndreMorro[BR]or make a group entry15:21
AndreMorro[BR]like %admin ALL(ALL)15:21
Picierichammond: Looks to be working here.  If you think theres a problem, #canonical-sysadmin would be the place to talk about it.15:21

chilli0AndreMorro[BR],  How does I setup a static ip then ?15:22
AndreMorro[BR]chilli0, easy way or hard way?15:22
PiciAndreMorro[BR]: admin is in /etc/sudoers by default, and adding the user to that group shouldn't require modifying the sudoers file at all.15:22

trismThe_ManU_212: you probably copied them from a windows partition, they are mounted by default as 777 (I had to do the same with my music collection)17:44
IzinucsKinetic|work: analog but there is a digital option.. when I choose that the system reports that it won't work17:44
IzinucsKinetic|work: at any rate .. I'm using analog lines.17:45
The_ManU_212trism: yeah the fat was mounted rw17:45
trismThe_ManU_212: as for the other question, I'm really an expert on permissions, although I think if you have permissions to create files in a directory, you have permission to delete them too, one goes with the other17:45

alecis there a way to have rm be an alias to mv to some trash folder, but have another command (like del or something) to be an actual rm (using bash)17:46
trismThe_ManU_212: me17:46
Kinetic|workizinucs - lsmod |17:46
eotterburghalllo17:46
ailaG2when installing ubuntu (the windows installer) it says: installation size: 3/4/5/6gb default is 5 should i keep that? (it's a 20gb hd)17:47
Kinetic|workizinucs - look for anything *snd_*17:47
eotterburghola spanish..!17:47
Kinetic|workmake sure you arent loading extra modules like snd_intell or anything17:47
EremiteailaG2, it all depends on how much space you need for ubuntu/windows17:47
IzinucsKinetic|work: lsmod | simply gives me a > symbol17:47
EnigmatorThe_ManU_212: I don't know if ext4 honore this but you could try the immutable bits which you set using chattr +i17:47
Kinetic|workizinucs sorry typo..drop the pipe17:47
EremiteailaG2, if you have a small HD and are just installing linux to play, 5gb should be enough.  You cant install much on 5bg, though.17:47

erUSULalec: make an rm function that does that.17:48
ailaG2Eremite: i don't want windows on that machine anymore, if that helps. i want to install ubuntu & boxee, try to connect it to the tv, if the hardware is good enough17:48
EnigmatorThe_ManU_212:  to make a file undeleatable17:49

EremiteYou should do a proper install if you can, ailaG217:50
ailaG2Eremite: i was hoping it would dual boot and then i'd delete windows from linux.. somehow17:50
erUSULalec: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2008022417565942317:50
ailaG2that means i'll have to go all the way to the other room and get a blank cd! *lazy*17:50
EremiteailaG2, that's not possible since ubuntu is hosted INSIDE your windows partition that way.  Wubi is not a real linux install, its a pseudo-install.17:50
EnigmatorThe_ManU_212:  test it to see if it work17:51
ailaG2Eremite: yeah i was wondering about that.. when i saw it wants to install inside an existing partition17:51
Will123456ailaG2- i've spent about 3 months trying to get ubuntu installed and customised on my TV to no avail. it's always better just to do it as simply and less complicately as possible, otherwise there's always little annoying problems :P17:51
The_ManU_212Enigmator: ok and what should be the result a file which cant be deleted as user?17:51
ailaG2Will123456: did you install boxee or use the normal media players?17:52

Will123456ailaG2: using boxee, seems to work quite well.17:53
EnigmatorThe_ManU_212:  so to reverse this you would do chattr -i17:53

ailaG2don't you just love the way windows works.. connect to windows, blank password, and i easily shared everything to any cracker who'd guess my password :P  (i'm a mac user)17:53
Will123456ailaG2: if it's just a low powered computer then i recommend the 32 bit version- you can get a 64 bit version of boxee but it's a beta and wasn't TOTALLY bug free when i tested it17:53
=== AdamSmith is now known as MFriedman
Will123456ailaG2: (though granted i haven't tried the normal 32 bit version of boxee so it might just be unstable anyway...)17:54
EnigmatorThe_ManU_212: exemple: chattr -i file.mp317:54
ailaG2Will123456: it's an ibm laptop from 2001-2002 :)) i don't really see a reason to use 64bit even if i could17:54
alecerUSUL: wouldn't the alias then get confused with the function? or does that not happen?17:54
Kinetic|workizinucs - yep you have extra modules loaded..whhat chipsset is this?17:55
Kinetic|workizinucs - this line : snd_hda_codec_nvhdmi,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_in17:55
Will123456ailaG2: that's good then :P17:55
ailaG2that's why i prefer linux on it over windows..17:55
Will123456ailaG2: boxee worked a lot better than xbmc though, which needs a decent amount of extra configuration to get youtube plugins and such working (and even then i couldn't get it to work, the UI was flakey)17:55
Will123456boxee just worked out of the box17:55

sillyCEOI have a bootable ubuntu on SD card, configured exactly the way I like it. Whats the easiest way to clone it to fresh SD?17:55

IzinucsKinetic|work: gforce 8200 on an XFX board17:55
erUSULalec: you can not make the alias name "rm" you will have to find another name17:55
Kinetic|workizinucs looks like  realtek and intel are both loaded... more than one soundcard? try rmmod to remove them and just load the one you want to work...to make sure its a conflict and not something else17:56
erUSULalec: alias del='/bin/rm'17:56

AndreMorro[BR]BuGo_laptop, to be honest, I wouldn't use any, but by the tradition, should be 1,5xRAM , 6 Then17:57

BuGo_laptopok 6 it is17:58
erUSULBoohbah: easy trigger ;)17:58
Boohbahi also like     alias ll='ls -al'17:58
Kinetic|workizinucs - ubuntu will try to load modules it thinks are required.. not always 100% reliable17:58
ailaG2Boohbah: it's the reason i'm installing linux..17:58

AndreMorro[BR]to big =)17:59
Will123456is there any reason why putting the swap partition at the front of the disk would be a bad idea?17:59
Will123456why does the ubuntu installer put it on the end by default?17:59
decois there a ubuntu karmic i685 img file ?18:00
Will123456i'm about to put the swap partition at the start (before the / and /home partitions) and i'm wondering if that would affect stability at all18:00
icerootdeco: i386 is what you want18:00
AndreMorro[BR]Will123456, if your system uses to much swap, then it would make slower because of the readings at swap space18:00
SwedeMikeWill123456: put it in the middle if you can.18:00

Will123456SwedeMike: because that's the most average distance between the places the disk might be reading from elsewhere?18:01
llutzWill123456: place it wherever you want. swap always is slow, so hdd-seektimes etc. won't really slow it down more18:01

rd1381login pass ,or have to logout and login in a admin user to to do admin stuff??18:25

rd1381Slart: i know that18:27
rd1381Slart: but it doesnt work on gui clicks18:28
IzinucserUSUL: not specifically.. I updated another machine today (a different one) and there were some new pulseaudio libraries.. however it was a 8.04 machine not a 9.10 machine like the one I'm trying to fix..18:28

Slartrd1381: doesn't work on gui clicks? I'm not sure I understand.. you mean it doesn't do it by itself when it notices that what the user is trying to do requires admin privileges?18:29

irene__Hi, all. The hard drive of my laptop is dying, so i'm trying to mount its encrypted data on another ubuntu laptop. But user ids are different. Okay, i'm not very clear, but here's my question: can I create 2 entries in /etc/passwd having different usernames but the same uid/gid ?18:30
pat|nGis it possible i can copy files from a network having windows xp os?18:30
AndreMorro[BR]pat|nG, linux copy from windows or windows copy from linux?18:31
rd1381Slart: no imean many of ubuntu admin apps are icons that u click and have parameteres and stuff, and clicking on them wont work in limited account because it asks for password but neither admin passs or limited pass works18:31
pat|nGlinux copy from windows18:31
IzinucserUSUL: actually kpackagekit has a nice History feature..18:31
erUSULIzinucs: ^.^ ok; i'm not familiar with pa admin utilities in kde... maybe it is there where the problem lies (is a mess volume contrlas in alsa and anothe bunch in pa but anyway)18:31
erUSULIzinucs: checked the pulseaudio volume levels etc...18:32
AndreMorro[BR]pat|nG, sure, if you have ubuntu you can clic in Places -> network18:32
AndreMorro[BR]pat|nG,  and find you machine there18:32
Slartrd1381: ah.. yes, that's true.. you'll have to start them manually from a terminal, using gksudo18:32
IzinucserUSUL: are the pulseaudio levels controlled seperately from kmix (alsamixer)?18:32
timbojimbomy screen saver is acting buggy. Whenever I put my password in to get to my desktop the screen saver reappears frozen. I can alt-tab to different open programs but none show up. My only option has been to restart my computer every time. I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and gnome18:32
AndreMorro[BR]timbojimbo, do you have desktop effects on? try disabling it18:33
creative_Hello. Are there no more device paths for usb devices(eg photo camera) in 9.10?18:33
erUSULIzinucs: there are; do you have pavucontrol installed ?18:33
IzinucserUSUL: nope18:33
rd1381Slart: yeah that would work but that a wordaround is'nt it? imean clicking and asking for password doesnt work and should be fixed so its a bug18:33
timbojimboAndreMorro[BR], it is set to none18:34

IzinucserUSUL: sure.. it'll pull in a bunch of gtk libraries.. but it's worth a shot18:34
EnigmatorIzinucs if you have problem with sound muted, you may check if you have alsa stuff installed18:34

adalal1heya.. im using dhcpd... is there a way to find the current leases?18:35
Slartrd1381: yes, it's a work around, indeed.   I would say that showing a password dialog where the current user password doesn't work would count as a bug.. if the user doesn't have the right permissions to run the app it should just give some kind of error, if you ask me. I would say its a bug, yes18:35

creative_AndreMorro[BR]: Its a digital camera18:37

coolcatcreative_, I do not know why you don't have them, but you can create a device, but you would have to know some information about fs type etc  .. i cannot help ypu with this18:38
creative_AndreMorro[BR]: It does. But I think somehow they changed usb device handling in 9.1018:38
IzinucserUSUL: the the support industry we refer to that as FM.. if you get my drift :)18:39

avi_hey, can anyone field a question about Ubuntu on a PowerBook?18:39

AndreMorro[BR]creative_, awsome...18:41
AndreMorro[BR]creative_, afraid i cant help you18:41
AndreMorro[BR]avi_, let say that OSX is optimized for your hardware...18:41
creative_AndreMorro[BR]: Okay. Too bad. I guess they changed the whole USB handling for digital cameras in 9.1018:41
erUSULcreative_: as i said if your camera can nt be configured to be usb storage you will have tom plug the card directly to the computer via a card reader18:42
avi_Of course, but why should Ubuntu fail so much with power management?18:42
AndreMorro[BR]creative_, I agree wirh erUSUL18:42
erUSULcreative_: that depends on the camera not on the version of ubuntu18:42
AndreMorro[BR]avi_, maybe you need to do some fine-tunning18:42

macman_ bbl19:19
Kinetic|workMatson and dangerous19:19
icerootMatson: no because normally you dont want a second user19:20
infidgeirha: i guess i can write a new script that does a killall on that command and then runs my version19:20
Matsoniceroot: all your programs should access the mysql db with the root user?19:20
icerootMatson: and what should the script create? a second user without any rights? and if he should get some rights at setup, to what database? think about it19:21
geirhainfid: Or edit xorg.conf. man synaptics19:21
Matsoniceroot: I have, walk the install user through creating a database, a user, and the rights for that user19:21
Matsoniceroot: that would seem more prudent than nothing19:22

infidgeirha: i dont even have a xorg.conf on this system yet it's still running that command on startup19:22
icerootMatson: no need for doing that at the setup19:22
Slartbullgard: I have no idea.. that was just the first hit when I googled for "lernid"19:22
h0rnmanMatson:  generally, I like that there are no users created by default.  In addition to avoiding the sticky topic of 'what permissions should this user have', you get some practice/refresher on creating users after a fresh install :)19:22

daedheltoastedmilk: you have to setup your videocard drivers accordingly. what is it? nvidia or ati ?20:24
FabioTheApeI was just wondering if it was me, or a known issue20:24
guntbertinko: you see it when booting - or you start the live system and there system/administration/system monitor - on the system tab20:24

DreamDemonWhile doing a custom compile for my server ( HP-DL385) I cant seem to get all the way through the compile without it bombing/not finishing.  Stamp is disabled along with a ton of other un-necessary thinsg that I dont even have hardware for.  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d449faf5020:25
Kinetic|workFabioTheApe, Trek , ubuntu doesnt come out of the box with libdvdcss .. you will have to google search to find how to install. be aware its illegal in the u.S without a license20:25
ikoniaDreamDemon: what are you compiling ?20:26
toastedmilkdaedhel, ati, but the ati card is lower on the case and has dvi ports.  there is a vga port that is on the upper part of the back of the case, that isn't on the graphics card20:26
guntbertinko: do you want to suspend to disk?20:26
saraqualWell, seems the installation went all good, didn't lose any of my old ntfs patitions, except the one intended for ubutu20:26
FabioTheApeKinetic|work, as I have said it works, just not the way expected20:26
DreamDemonikonia, the kernel20:26
TrekKinetic|work: I also have Windows that works with DVDs20:26
ikoniaDreamDemon: why ?20:26
daedheltoastedmilk: what makes you think its for a 2nd monitor ?20:26
ikoniaDreamDemon: what's wrong with the stock one ?20:26
inkoguntbert, not really sure what that means, should i?20:26
Kinetic|workTrek windows is licensed to use libdvdcss20:26
Kinetic|workerr dvdcss sorry :)20:26
toastedmilkdaedhel, because the monitor fits in the port, idk20:26
DreamDemonikonia, It's a server and need to squeeze as much perf out of it as possible20:26
inkoguntbert, i have 100gb free space im installing on20:26
meestermoleI cannot access config page to my NAS devices with 1 out of 3 of my PCs - anyone?20:27
Trekas I said, Kinetic|work, I use Windows to play DVDs (it runs smoother for me)20:27
ikoniaDreamDemon: then don't custom compile - it will get more juice out of it20:27
saraqualJust a quick question, every time I browse to on of the old drivers it automaticaly creates a "icon" on one of the workspaces, any chance I could turn that off?20:27
ikoniaDreamDemon: if you think a custom kernel will squeeze juice out of your box, your not living in a real world20:27
daedheltoastedmilk: that probably is you motherboard's card, wich is desactivated when you intall another card on it20:27
toastedmilkdaedhel, any way to get them both working?20:27
DreamDemonikonia, So I can zet timeers higher then 100 Mhz without re-compiling?20:27
daedheltoastedmilk: nope20:27
DreamDemonikonia, amongst other things20:28
ikoniaDreamDemon: why do you feel setting the timers will give you more performance /20:28
guntbertinko: it means you can tell the system to write everything in memory to the disk and shut off power - that way it will restart faster and at the same point you were before - in windows its called hibernate20:28
DAMEXICOhello20:28
inkoguntbert, then yeah20:28
DreamDemonikonia, One of the things running on this machine is a game server.  Need to increase the I/O timers for fps boosting20:28
ikoniaDreamDemon: it really won't make a differnce, you're living in a false economy20:29
Losha!mencoder20:29
toastedmilkdaedhel, that puzzles me.20:29
ikoniaDreamDemon: that sort of thing is for very specific tuning, things like hpc, or high io database servers, a games server you won't see a difference20:30
guntbertinko: then the first advice (way up) was good - but 3GB swap (same as RAM) will be ok too20:30
inkoguntbert, ok thanks20:30
DreamDemonikonia, So stipiing out the un-necessary garbage out of the kernel and custom compiling for my Opteron-HE's wont make a difference in how well the kernel code performs on the machine?20:30

NachturnalOkay, first question: What's the easiest way for me to install Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu 9.04?20:40
ikoniaNachturnal: I advise you not to - firefox is very intergrated into the desktop20:40
DreamDemonikonia, You've basically stated that I'm living a false economy but those others are not liars, therefore creating a contradiction without any supporting reference point20:40
ikoniaNachturnal: what do you need from 3.6 that 3.5 doesn't give you20:40
DAMEXICOdownload the archive from mozilla site20:40

PurpleyHey guys my Fedora-12 torrent just finished, It has the iso a Checksum and a readme-sources, do I burn all of them to a cd?20:41

geniideshymers1: Well, if there is one that it just can't understand is for Bluetooth... :  lspci | grep Bluetooth           or: lsusb | grep Bluetooth         should show it20:42

happy!remix | fluxy22:48
terjewell, I dont' actually know what 4.2.2.2 is but one of Google's name servers is 8.8.8.8 so to use dig, you would run: dig @8.8.8.8 google.com22:49
magik_network-manager currently configures my resolv.conf to use "nameserver 192.168.1.1"22:49

kosharimadmike thats odd? possobly you have a clash of events, however it will usually trll you,23:04
ganymedehappy, it's a workaround for a program that expects "source myscript.sh" to source "./myscript.sh" but in sh 4.x, they removed . for the search path for "source". currently, i'm adding a line of code in the python source to workaround this but it's becoming cumbersome to keep patching the python source23:04

quentinh0rnman: I had many more before. lol23:05

kosharimadmike the cursur needs to be on the desktop and NOT over an app for rotate btw23:05
terjemagik_: dhclient updates /etc/resolv.conf23:05
erUSULganymede: . file works fine here (for sourcing) or did i missandertood you ?23:05
h0rnmanquentin, try setting something via nvidia-config, then restart X23:06
terjewell, that's one of the programs that touches /etc/resolv.conf, network-manager also does23:06

bcjerUSUL: I think the default _boot-time_ shell is DASH, but is the user shell default not still BASH?23:07

ganymedeerUSUL, make a file called test.sh in your current directory that does echo "HELLO" and then in sh, try ". test.sh" will not work but try ". ./test.sh"23:08

bcjerUSUL: Ah23:08
magik_is there a default firewall in ubuntu?23:08
magik_should iptables have any entries in it?23:08
happybcj: pretty much they use dash as the default shell. But for users it is Bash. That way the system scipts have fast execution and the users get all the features of bash23:08

h0rnmanwe've reached the limit of what I know about X configs23:33
kosharisdwrage agreed23:33
geirhaganymede: Huh? You're trying to source a sh script in python?23:33
ganymedegeirha, yeah, it's not my python code, it's from sidefx for houdini 10.0 hqueue client, and that's what they do23:33
geirhaganymede: Why source it then? Why not just execute it?23:34
clicker4721quick question: is there a way to completely back up your system? i don't mean files, I mean everything--making an identical bootable copy (bootable only if necessary though)23:35
koshariclicker4721 there are many ways23:35
clicker4721I mainly just want to keep all my programs and all the configurations, the files don't mean as much to me, those are easy23:35
clicker4721koshari: such as...23:35
geirhaganymede: Well, the proper thing to do in any case is to file a bug on it.23:35
koshariclicker4721 dd partimage rsync ect23:35
ganymedehere is the HQCOMMANDS environmental variable: not sure how to interpret it but maybe you do: {"pythonCommands": "export HFS=\"/opt/HFS\" && python2.5", "hythonCommands": "export HFS=\"/opt/HFS\" && cd $HFS && source houdini_setup && hython -u", "mantraCommands": "export HFS=\"/opt/HFS\" && cd $HFS && source houdini_setup && python2.5 $HFS/houdini/scripts/hqueue/hq_mantra.py"}23:36
lektronxi am having a little trouble with aptitude under sudo in karmic. for some reason i am able to sudo aptitude install but if i sudo aptitude upgrade it always complains of /var/lib/dpkg/lock23:36

clicker4721koshari: EVERYTHING?23:36
lektronxanyone else experiencing a similar problem or know of a solution?23:36
ganymedegeirha, and in all honestly, i don't know what the difference between sourcing and executing a script is, but i want to get this work for now rather than waiting for sidefx to release their next version of houdini (which is probably not address this issue anyway)23:36
koshariclicker4721 partimare will copy the full disk partition byte for byte, however it dont support ext4 if your using that,23:37

ELoXLi cant even get flash or java 1.623:38
stevenfgsdfgUbuntu in particular23:38
clicker4721koshari: no, i dont believe so, but that's easy to check. now, when you say partition, which one? i know that ubuntu default uses 4: /, /usr, /home, swap23:38
koshariclicker4721 kkep in mind that using a backup partition depending on OS/config may require the backup to be edited to get it to boot on a new dribve, ie, product activation, disk uuids in grub confs ect23:38
geirhaganymede: If it does specify bash, it should work if you add the dir containing houdini_setup to PATH23:38
stevenfgsdfgWhere may I find a good pdf/html Ubuntu guide?23:38
quentinh0rnman: i have saved the config. do you want to see my xorg.conf. it looks totally different now23:38
ganymedegeirha, when it fails because the script to source isn't in the PATH, it prints out a line that says something like: "sh: 1: source: file not found" which led me to believe it was sh, but yeah, you're right, sh doesn't understand source23:39
koshariclicker4721 /usr /home are directory NOT partitions23:39
ganymedegeirha, however, if i append . to path with the python line: os.environ["PATH"] = os.environ["PATH"] + ":.", then it all of a sudden works, so i wanted to make this change permanent23:39

quesookay, so I added the mozilla repositories and stuff, did a `sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6`, it didn't error out but it didn't look like it did anything . . says it's "already the newest version" when I try installing it again. What's up? firefox-3.6 is certainly not on my machine (Jaunty). Help?23:46
daleharveyshughes: do you really need msn? you can login to msn with empathy23:46
clicker4721koshari, lektronx: i've screwed aroun with slack a little, so I know the directories can be mounted on seperate partitions to make upgrades easier: the point of ubuntu; and when i installed mine, i saw that swap was on part. #5, and / on #1...i assumed. so, it doesn't need to be bootable, just recoverable, and what did you say the line was that'll do it?23:46

WolfwolfI installed Jaunty as a dual boot OS on an Acer Aspire Netbook several months ago for a friend.  She now wants to return to windows only and remove the Ubuntu partition.  Is there a way to reset the windows boot and remove the Ubuntu partitions?23:50
quesoganymede: no, firefox-3.6 doesn't even run, says command not fount.23:50
DaZBizzeh: you can.23:50
daftykinsWolfwolf: you'll need her to either have a windows or ubuntu CD23:50
koshariBizzeh it may be your screens edid info isnt getting to the gpu, you may need to enter it in the xorg file manually,23:50
DaZBizzeh: but you have to write your own xorg :f23:50
BizzehDaZ: how?23:50
shughesi couldnt tell ou what half that is...23:50
ardchoillequeso: you might have to specify the entire path to firefox 3.6 as it may not be in your path23:51
koshariBizzeh to begin with you will need your monitors edid info23:51
DaZBizzeh: do you by any chance have nvidia card?23:51

shughesdoes the amsn and emesen go through the windows live.. will i have to create a new account?23:53
ganymedequeso, i have'nt played with that ppa myself, but maybe it created a menu item for firefox 3.6 that's named after the beta name and has a generic globe icon23:54
AndreMorro[BR]what up yall23:54
ardchoillequeso: find / -type f -name firefox23:54
ganymedequeso, since mozilla didn't compile it, and ubuntu ppa daily compiled it, they're not allowed to use firefox official branding23:54
