You have to enable mic using volume control, it starts off disabled/no volume usually [00:14] it has the stupid like blank picture there next to my name, but i guess that would explain why im getting no where [00:15] how am I supposed to use the app CREOX from the repos if you cant hear your mic via your speakers in Ubuntu?

Please check whether the printer is connected to the machine" -- please help! [00:16] shardon_: right click on the speaker icon on you top right of ubuntu and then edit > preference and check mic boost.. make sure the volume levels of the mic are high and the boost level. Do the mic check w/ skype again an [00:16] allyourbass, you can put your picture at booting http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-add-a-splash-image-to-grub-2-on-ubuntu-9.04 [00:16] rizitis [00:16] That's not what he means.

[00:16] sharo_; also mess around w/ your input sources until it works. it's usually trial and error [00:17] ok, that time, on restart, the auto login failed but it let me login on the first manual attempt. But something is amiss, where would I check logs? I've never checked logs before [00:17] thank u very much [00:17] Sharon, post on the forums. Make sure to give your laptop model. [00:17] Dreakon: hmm that's strange [00:17] i just got it to work [00:17] grats. [00:17] craigbass1976, i dont think you can easily browse files, rather instead put the pics on an SD card rather than the internal memory of the card [00:17] hi guys [00:17] how can I setup different keyboard layout in wine ?

I've never checked logs before [00:18] ok i was wondering y my computer screen goes crazy when i wake up my computer from the screensaver [00:18] i have laptop by the way [00:18] Define "crazy" [00:18] kerpali86: Yeah. It has Moblin 2.0 Linux Kernal, Fedora 10 Kernal, Fedora Core 7, Wind River Linux and Red Hat Linux [00:18] AlHafoudh, go to the wine channel [00:18] mka: its invite only [00:19] mka: oh it work,s thanks [00:19] AlHafoudh, get yourself invited then [00:19] Eremite confirm which mic input is selected, maybe mess with mic boost and of course confirm you mic actually works or things arnt muted === jay is now known as Guest61388 [00:19] crazy-my screen flashes rapidly after i wake it up from the screensaver [00:19] Dreakon: hmm red hat should work.. it's just using alien for rpm.. linux is linux [00:20] What kind of gpu does your laptop have? [00:20] If you don't know, can I have the model? [00:20] iflema, i record audio all the time with this machine when I had windows. I know how to set up the sound system to get the mic to work, and it records. Im asking about Creox and getting sound to come out of your speakers. If you have a mic, plug it in and tell me if you can get sound out of the speakers, live. [00:20] does ubuntu 8.10 provide native support for virtio-net? [00:20] Dreakon: it'll install files in weird places though, like /etc has like diff meaning than it does on like ubuntu [00:20] i have a acer [00:20] Eremite me.... yes [00:20] Acer what? [00:20] the model is aspires100 [00:21] thanks, hang on. [00:21] iflema, are you using karmic? [00:21] them brand of computer i have is acer [00:21] help! i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/363544/ when i try this sox -c 2 -s -w -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -w -r 32000 /dev/dsp (which i need to run normaly so i can have sound with my tv card) [00:21] Eremite works just fine.... at least you know your mic works:) [00:21] mka, my computer came out just before card readers were standard issue on PCs. Oh well. I'll get one next time. [00:21] Dreakon: try gksu displayconfig-gtk before you install [00:21] iflema, I can record audio via the mic but I cannot hear the audio via the mic, live. Therefore, you cannot use Creox. [00:22] coward [00:22] Sharon, what version of ubuntu are you using? [00:22] nickkontos, what's the -w option supposed to be? [00:22] im using ubuntu studio [00:22] Dreakon: usually intel drivers work out of the box w/ Ubuntu, this is very strange that intel doesn't offer .deb [00:23] Any particular reason why? [00:23] Eremite ooo. thats a nice little app..... [00:23] kerpali86: That's unfortunate... lol [00:23] im a dj [00:23] ah. [00:23] iflema, it doesnt work. [00:23] 9.10 right? [00:23] yes [00:23] DJ sharon_ ! [00:23] Crisis, i ran this, it looks like i might just need a gdm theme that supports faces like you said http://paste.ubuntu.com/363547/ [00:23] Dreakon: it's all linux. any of those should work fine though where it will install files will be diff.. the kernels are radically diff enough to break anything. [00:24] MrUnix, i donno! :( [00:24] yeah i rock!!!! [00:24] Dreakon: aren't* [00:24] hehehe [00:24] MrUnix, i found it here http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/debian-ubuntu-linux-configure-pinnacle-pctv-tuner.html [00:24] nickkontos, your man page (see in your pastebin) doesn't list it as an option. Just remove it and try running the same command. [00:24] I've not checked logs before, but in the /var/log/auth.log file there seems to be a lot of entries is this significant? [00:24] kerpali86; crashed.. dno what 2 do.. heck of a bother.. graphiccard is semi broken so cant read of the screen [00:24] kerpali86: Alright... would you recommend any kernal over another? [00:25] What is the offtopic channel? [00:25] !ot | Shizuo [00:25] Shizuo: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [00:25] Thanks [00:25] No prob bud [00:25] im still here im jus waitin [00:26] Dreakon: not really. To me it's all the same in terms of drivers. I doubt intel provides source code so you can't compile it, or you might be able to if some parts are sourced. Hmm.. I'm stumped.. Check the forums [00:26] Sharon, I'm sorry but I don't have an answer for you. [00:26] Ubuntu has a lot of quirks with laptop hibernation. [00:26] I suggest posting on the forums as I mentioned earlier. [00:26] MrUnix, well, cool! now i only get this "sox FAIL formats: no handler for given file type `ossdsp'" [00:26] thanks neway [00:26] sharon_, what's the issue? [00:26] its not really a prob [00:26] MrUnix, I had to remove both -w though [00:26] Dreakon: it appears to be a a common problem: http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/showthread.php?t=63076 [00:27] Is anyone familiar with installing Cinelerra on ubuntu 9.10? [00:27] Dreakon: and a recent one at that.. hmm [00:27] my computer screen goes crazy after i wake it up [00:27] Is anyone familiar with installing Cinelerra on ubuntu 9.10? I am getting this while trying the deb command -> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m593cc4a5 [00:27] nickkontos, what's the command you're running?

[00:28] it seems to flash worst when i move the mouse [00:28] anyone can help me in installing Cinelerra video editting tool on Ubuntu 9.10? [00:28] sharon, do you know by chance if your laptop uses an ati graphics card? [00:28] sharon_, one moment [00:28] yeah i think it duz [00:28] nickkontos, run the command and paste me the output [00:29] hi, if anyone is good at open office BASIC can you look at my http://pastebin.com/d2c57a759 i could really use a hand [00:29] kerpali86; My bad.. the memory sticks was loose [00:29] Dreakon: buy a dedicated graphics card? lol. Try this site: http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/detect.htm and get the specific G43 driver, it should give you the option to make an xorg [00:29] sharon_, lspci and pastebin the output here please. [00:29] When you first installed ubuntu, did it ask you to install restricted hardware? [00:29] MrUnix, the output is this --> sox FAIL formats: no handler for given file type `ossdsp' [00:29] jolaren: lol, it happens. =D [00:29] specifically a "Radeon" driver? [00:29] Meteor: you are supposed to add the deb line to /etc/apt/sources.list [00:29] nickkontos, that's it? [00:29] kerpali86; What was the memory command now again? [00:29] what dose that mean [00:30] MrUnix, yeah, that's pretty it... [00:30] kerpali86: I have a laptop, dedicated graphics won't help much. ;) [00:30] sharon_, you can check graphics card using 'lspci | grep -i graphics' [00:30] Thanks mka. [00:30] ok [00:30] nickkontos, every other command before this one on that page worked? [00:30] Where is the Canonical store located? [00:30] do i input that n the terminal [00:30] sharon_, yes [00:30] kerpali86: "This device is unknown or unsupported." That page isn't bringing anything up. :( [00:31] one sec [00:31] kerpali86; sudo lshw -C MEMORY nvm [00:31] Dreakon: lol that is a problem.. well if it's a laptop drivers. Then sometimes graphics drivers don't play well unless you get it directly from your manufacturer. LCD screens and stuff are standardized now but I sometimes you might have to get the drivers off the company's website vs intel's website. === Meteor is now known as cinelerrahelp [00:31] MrUnix, well, yeah, it hasn't got anything important though [00:31] anyone can help me in installing cinelerra? === ivar is now known as Guest66181 [00:31] aaron11: do you mean the physical address or online?

How can I tell it to reference correctly? [00:32] kerpali86: Off of Asus's website? I don't think they have Linux drivers... [00:32] What do you mean it hasn't got anything important? [00:32] MrUnix, I mean, I've done all these my self before and the outputs are the same as far as the tvcard's spec are conserned, except... [00:32] Euthanatos, what version of ubuntu are you using?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:34] Euthanatos, I always frown upon a separate /boot partition, nevertheless, did you try to chainload to the /boot partition ?

That's what I belive.. max 2x 512 RIMMs [00:41] im just such a noob at this lol [00:41] Schui: Visual Basic is not good, and as far as I know Open Office doesn't deal with such macros that well, and not even KOffice for that matter, but could try that [00:41] Dreakon: no, but sometimes (1% of the time) .exe files are actually zip archives.. if it doesn't open, and it's for Windows [00:42] im waitin ok [00:42] sharon_, that is like an error message [00:42] jolaren: That's right. though I don't think you need RIMM. It's overpriced. Is this a serve motherboard or a desktop motherboard? [00:42] ok [00:42] sharon_, try again without quotes [00:42] kerpali86: I get an error when I try to open it, I guess it won't work? [00:42] Schui: right well you need to start using alternatives to Windows stuff, and you will be alright [00:42] Sharon [00:42] Is there a way to increase the buffer size on totem? [00:42] wait [00:42] guys [00:42] Dreakon: nope then it's a windows file. Umm try to find a tar.gz or .zip or something that's not an exe [00:42] wouldn't it be: lspci -nn | grep VGA [00:42] kerpali86; A desktop motherboard.. Old dell [00:42] can u repost what i must type in the terminal [00:43] sharon_, exactly this: lspci | grep -i graphics [00:43] mka, are you sure it isn't lspci -nn | grep VGA [00:43] Schui: also actsaully with enough RAM and such, you could actsaully run Windows inside Ubuntu for most Windows programs [00:43] how do i input that horizontal line [00:43] jolaren: Oh then you're fine. Find you some cheap sticks of memory. RIMM is considered overprices do you don't need RIMM exactly [00:43] copy and paste? [00:43] sharon_: shift + \ will give you | [00:43] seb: wow.. O_o [00:43] kerpali86; Like DDR? [00:44] Crisis, I am not sure about your command either [00:44] its lspci -nn | grep VGA [00:44] kerpali86; Will be really sad if I buy 2 x 512mb DDR memory sticks and they don't work :P and 400 mhz cache? [00:44] jolaren: try crucial.com to find what memory you need [00:44] sharon_, ok try what Crisis and Gstar are suggesting as well [00:44] !wine | Schui [00:44] Schui: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [00:45] anyone know if this is where i would ask to get some help about how to get a startup script to run in ubuntu jaunty? [00:45] MrUnix, It worked! i just had to install libsox-fmt-oss! [00:45] lspci -nn | grep VGA [00:45] ok so i updated my ubuntu version and now im stuck at a grub screen how do i get to my ubuntu desktop? [00:45] Schui: Virtualbox for Windows virtualization there's an open source version in the repo that lacks USB support, and another free as in price version that you can get that has it. http://www.virtualbox.org [00:45] happend when i rebooted my computer im on my laptop [00:45] Schui: How much RAM do you have, also do you have a copy of Microsoft Office? [00:46] jolaren: RIMM is soooooo old it's crazy it's hard to tell what works on your computer anymore. But you should test it using corsair's online memory test. Launch windows and check it out before you spend a dime. [00:46] jackhigh; Problem is I dont know my model [00:46] seb: i dont have excel, so it wouldnt make a lot of sense [00:46] Crisis, Gstar , that interesting, you command works, thx [00:46] kerpali86; Got no win cd.. certainly not anythin that will install on 182mb [00:46] how can I disable gnome-panel? I don't see it in startup sessions [00:46] Schui: ok well there's some sort of free excel viewer from Microsoft that will work in Wine. That can maybe do your macro. [00:46] sharon_, where you at? [00:46] Schui: that can probably do your macro [00:46] jolaren: hmm doesnt the motherboard have a serial you could google ? [00:46] seb: so there is no way i can get this macro to work in open office? [00:47] I can print a test page but cannot print from Adobe Reader ... it seems the printer and says its ready .. but when I try to print it says "The print process returned an error. Please check whether the printer is connected to the machine" -- please help! [00:47] jolaren: I know theirs is some RIMM to PCxxxx equivalent table. I just can't find it. [00:47] emma: in gconf-editor, there is both /app/totem/buffer-size and /app/totem/network-buffer-threshold; both in seconds, may be what you want [00:47] anyone here use Acrobat Reader to print in Ubuntu? [00:47] Schui: have you tried asking in #openiffice.org ? [00:47] MrUnix, so now when i run "sox -c 2 -s -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -r 32000 /dev/dsp" and then open another terminal and run "sudo tvtime -d /dev/video1" i can see tv and hear audio! Now, how can I avoid typing all these commands? can I save them somewhere so when i load tvtime they'll load automaticaly? [00:47] Schui: probably is a way some how, there's a channel for Open Ofice on here, but the name is a bit confussing, and not what IdleOne put [00:47] jackhigh; I found a service number, will try to find somewhere to put it.. from dell [00:47] #openoffice.org [00:47] im here [00:48] How do I get to my desktop???

The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM and others - See also !Flavors [01:29] WeCan: not unless you absolutely want to. Some apps are written for the K desktop but will run on Gnome in Ubuntu. [01:29] Yeah, what euth said [01:29] is there a way to make gVim the default graphic editor instead of 'text editor'? on ubuntu? [01:29] Alan502: Shouldn't have to. I find it easier to bind it to a global key combination in KDE control panel [01:29] XFCE is the lightest [01:29] SJLong198425: they are all the same OS just different GUI [01:29] kubuntu default desktop is kde xbuntu is xfce(sp) ubuntu gnome [01:29] * Euthanatos prefers xfce [01:29] fluxbox is lighter, and then there's straight BASH SHELL. =P [01:29] is xfrce easy as gne [01:29] Alan502: That way you don't have to export the DISPLAY and can restart kwin anytime [01:29] Is KDE better then Gnome ? [01:29] gnome* [01:29] no [01:29] SJLong198425: Vanilla? Chocolate? Strawberry? They all contribute to the same thing -- You enjoy ice creams! :o [01:30] It'sa matter of preference WeCan [01:30] lisa_ for some reason im thinking you on the netbook remix? [01:30] obladda, so i add all these to the kde start? [01:30] unless it's XFCE>ALL!!!! [01:30] ok I c [01:30] WeCan: depends entirely on you and the way you like to work with a desktop...don't think there is a definitive answer [01:30] iflema: Yes. [01:30] im waiting for suse to download then ill install inside of xp and see if it will pick up my wireless cards [01:30] WeCan: It is different, not better. Some people prefer KDE, some people prefer Gnome. Linux is *that* flexible. :) [01:30] WeCan: I tried KDE, like Gnome better [01:31] KDE makes me want to puke [01:31] been working on this all day bout to throw this thing out the window [01:31] Alan502: I used to have to but the current kernel and nvidia drivers work for me most of the time [01:31] !ot [01:31] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [01:31] lisa_ ive done it.. cant remember.... just confirming a few things....

Try it from the live cd and see if your adapters work [01:32] prefer gnome now personally but when I first started with Linux back with mandrake I prefered kde cant stand it now but it was more windows like and familiar [01:32] obladda, i'm using the lastest kernel avaible in the updates and nvidia 9 series drivers, this messed up after using fluxbox [01:32] i have it maybe ill try that thanx [01:32] SJLong: its an easy way to find out [01:32] !bot | fieldse [01:32] fieldse: Hi!

[01:33] !terminal | WeCan [01:33] WeCan: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [01:33] iflema: Well that gives me something to go on, I had no idea this was specific to the remix. [01:33] WeCan: try --> http://www.linuxcommand.org/ [01:34] WeCan: When you are using linux everyday, you learn to pick up popular commands. [01:34] wecan: equivalent. apples / oranges === aperson is now known as APERSON [01:34] help. i patched uvcvideo module for a webcam to work, and it worked, but the module was at /extra/ and the old one at the kernel tree. so after rebooting it stopped working. dmesg now gives errors typical of a module requiring a newer kernel... now i cant revert back to the old error message before patching (which was just one line of error)... I think depmod or someth has cached the problematic uvcvideo module symbols, and doesnt matter which driver i comp [01:34] lisa_ well the thing is its all optimized for a small screen.... im just makeing sure that removal wont screw thing up.... [01:34] great thanks coz every one seems to know these commands except me lol [01:35] it's like learnign a new language WeCan; one word/command at a time [01:35] You build up a vocabulary and eventually syntax and grammer becoem intuitive [01:36] InvaderZim: think you might want to ask in #ubuntu-dev [01:36] thanks [01:36] But typos will always plague you ~.^ [01:37] hi, can anyone tell me if Ubuntu Karmic 64 bit can run 34 bit programs? [01:37] kain_: 34bit, no. 32bit, yes. [01:38] :) [01:38] kain_: haha 34 bit!! [01:38] yeah but it looks realy cool when people use it though [01:38] oops [01:38] lol [01:38] that's quite the request [01:38] ya 32 bit [01:38] I made a 34 bit program once.. [01:38] lol [01:38] kinjo, are you sure? [01:38] lisa_ is it desktop access, or the window picker/task switcher that annoying? [01:38] Crisis: Yes. [01:38] Most refuse to install saying wrong architecture. [01:38] does 64 bit architecture support biarch? [01:39] Okay, so i want to download the latest Intel graphics package from here... http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2009Q4.html [01:39] How do I do it? [01:39] Crisis: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit [01:39] sudo this, and sudo that and then stuff happens, I ve been a windows man all my life, and I have missed out on a lot because of it [01:39] hi all, 9.10 amd64 here, I can't seem to get java applets to run in chrome [01:39] Do I have to download each of those seperately? [01:39] chai_ do you have java installed? [01:39] How do I make a new tty via getty? [01:40] Ah. [01:40] I didn't know that, thanks. [01:40] Trek, yes, and installed all other packages relevant to java [01:40] iflema: Both, but I think i've got it figured out. seems there is a desktop-switcher app. I couldn't install it so I'm adding the remix sources, gonna try again once it's done updating the source list. [01:41] Trek, sun-java6-jre [01:41] Okay, so i want to download the latest Intel graphics package from here... http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2009Q4.html How do I do it? Do I download each of those componants seperately? [01:42] lisa_ if ya want access to the taskbar (the bar with the cloack) slide the window picker over then one can add/remove installed applets [01:42] lisa_: i read that its very buggy i also heard that they pulled it from the karmic repo because of this ? i could be wrong tho as ive never used it personally [01:42] Well, it worked, only it left the panel thing on my desktop! [01:42] Dreakon, why not install the intel graphics drivers through synaptic? [01:43] Lisa can you not right click the panel and select delete panel? [01:43] No. [01:43] chai_: Because I'm kind of new to this and not sure the best way to do half of this stuff. ;) [01:43] Yahoooooooooooooooooooooooo! [01:43] It's like it's replaced the desktop with this panel, and the panel will not go away. I may just reinstall the non-remix version. [01:43] Dreakon: installing with Synaptic is easier than downloading it from Intel [01:43] by the sounds of it when 8.04 stops being supported Im changing distros [01:44] . [01:44] Dreakon, lol, fair enough. open synaptic package manager and search for intel video drivers === jason_ is now known as Roasted [01:44] . [01:44] lisa_: go to startup options and deselect maximus and netbook launcher [01:44] wiretapped: jfyi? :D [01:44] lisa, you can get used to it... and you can add normal panels too [01:44] lisa, at first I did not like UNR either, but it has grown on me [01:44] chai_: The version installed in Synaptic isn't as new as the version on the website. [01:45] lisa_: the panel is called netbook launcher you can disable it [01:45] Dreakon: why do you need to update the drivers before they're released into the repos? [01:45] can anybody recommand me a MD5 check tools, as i downloaded xubuntu 9.10, i want to check it before burn to cd [01:46] ouyes in ubuntu or in windows? [01:46] Dreakon, but if you install through package manager, it will be more stable, and update itself [01:46] Trek: Because for some reason Ubuntu isn't working very well with my integrated Intel video card in my laptop. [01:46] jinroh, oh mate of course in ubuntu [01:46] windows is really shit [01:46] Trek: As everything is running rather sluggishly, and as I've seen before, nothing is taking up RAM and nothing is overloading the CPU. [01:46] yes tis [01:46] Dreakon, define not woking very well [01:46] working* [01:47] ouyes in terminal just type md5sum (file.iso) [01:47] without the () [01:47] Dreakon, that doesn't completely mean the graphics drivers are the issue. [01:47] Hello...I am trying to recover files from a corrupt XP harddrive and booted to a live Ubuntu CD. When i run fdisk -l I get nothing but a prompt, how bad is the situation? [01:47] Dreakon, just an observation [01:47] jiohdi, so i have to compare the result myself? [01:47] Checkmate91, sudo fdisk -l [01:47] ouyes, you compare it to the md5 on the site you down load from [01:47] im having problems with flash. When Im watching flash videos on firefox other flash media wont work, for exmaple playing a .flv file or using minitube. I have 64 bit flash 10 plugin, any idea? [01:47] Trek: I welcome any suggestions then. :) [01:48] Checkmate91, are you using "sudo fdisk -l" ? [01:48] jiohdi, i know , i mean i need to compare it by my careful eyes? [01:48] ouyes, its not that hard [01:48] question: I see klogd & sysklogd in synaptic in residual config. Karmic got rid of them? [01:48] chai_ thanks I can not see that it is FAT32 on /dev/sda1 but when I click on Places --> Computer, I do not see this filesystem on the list [01:49] ouyes you run md5sum and you paste the md5 from the site right below it [01:49] chai; i can NOW* see that it is FAT32 [01:49] easy peasy [01:49] Checkmate91, you have to mount it [01:49] hey guys - anybody running AWN dock? Got a quick question. [01:49] Checkmate91, easiest way is through gnome partition manager === mac9416_ is now known as mac916 [01:50] ouyes, if you want to do it by not trusting your eyes... just put both into a doc editor and then do a find/replace on one of them and replace it with something like XX, if it matches, the whole thing will be changed to XX [01:50] Anyone have any idea why it seems opening, closing and moving windows in Ubuntu feels so sluggish compared to Windows? [01:50] jiohdi, thanks , i am lucky, it is valid [01:51] jiohdi, you are smart [01:51] anyone using chrome here? are java applets working within it? [01:51] Dreakon: i think it Karmic. Lucid seems a lot quicker [01:51] ouyes, I am a fiddler... tinkerer, not that smart, just working with what I got :) [01:51] anyone knows where can I get help with subversion... I tried the #svn group @ irc.freenode.net but doesn't exist [01:51] anymore [01:51] chai; mtab says it is mounted but I still canot see it [01:51] onetinsoldier: You think so? That'd suck lol. [01:52] Dreakon: well, the good news is, is that Lucid will be a Long Term Release [01:52] Checkmate91, hm... can you see it in any partition editor? [01:52] chai; wait a minute, that drive on /dev/sda1 is my thumbdrive not the harddrive [01:52] !lts | onetinsoldier Dreakon [01:52] onetinsoldier Dreakon: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [01:52] Dreakon: err, i mean Long Term Support [01:53] thanks sebsebseb [01:53] chai; sudo fdisk -l gives me nothing again === bryonak1 is now known as test === test is now known as bryonak [01:54] onetinsoldier: np [01:54] checkmate is it mounted? [01:54] Checkmate91, use chai: or chai, if you use chai; it doesn't alert me :P... sudo fdisk -l doesn't even show you the partition you're running ubuntu on? === jstoker_ is now known as Guest14638 [01:54] onetinsoldier: Dreakon and yes Lucid should be quite a bit faster than Karmic [01:54] Checkmate91, oh wait, i mean chai_: or chai_, [01:54] chai, nope [01:54] jiohdi, thanks anyway, you help me through [01:54] onetinsoldier: Dreakon for boot up [01:54] hi... I have a horrible problem... I used alient to convert an rpm package to a deb and installed it... it installed the intended app just fine, but it goofed and overwrote my sudoers file [01:55] I can no longer sudo anymore :( [01:55] what does df show checkmate? [01:55] how can I fix this!? [01:55] ouyes, glad to assist, I am a noob and many have helped me here [01:55] !alien | jrcarr2 [01:55] jrcarr2: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [01:55] can i change the editor assigned to visudo? [01:55] this is on my laptop and I have physical access [01:55] mine is behaving unlike visudo [01:55] and it's driving me nuts [01:55] sebsebseb, I know what it is... alient itself isnt the problem [01:55] jrcarr2: well I guess what has happended to you is one reason for why that factoid existts or something liket hat [01:55] unlike vi i mena [01:55] anyone have any experience with swiftfox? [01:55] visudo is required [01:56] Checkmate91, that's very strange... if you have ubuntu running, you definitely have AT LEAST your own partition in fdisk... [01:56] test [01:56] for editing the sudoers file [01:56] sebsebseb, thanks, but you missed my problem [01:56] test [01:56] karma_police, yes [01:56] jrcarr2: well the factoid says it's unsupported, plus hardly anyone uses it, so good luck trying to find help here. maybe ##linux though [01:56] chai, even on a live cd? [01:56] nomasteryoda: hm, that's what I thoguht. I simply can't exit it. it won't persist in command mode [01:56] jrcarr2: altough it's just the file you say [01:56] how do you install it? i googled swiftfox 3.6 and am having probs.. i'm a bit of a linux noob tho [01:56] Checkmate91, you would have your cd mounted in that case [01:56] sebsebseb, you're still missing my question. alient didn't do it nor is it the cause... the problem is my sudoer user got overwritten [01:56] jbendotnet, esc, :wq! [01:56] jrcarr2: so ask later and someone else might be able to help [01:57] sudoer file I mean [01:57] nomasteryoda: I've had a friend look and he knows VI well and he can't get it to exit either [01:57] totally stumped [01:57] I cant do anything now because I can no longer sudo to root [01:57] karma_police, no one uses it anymore [01:57] hi [01:57] hi [01:57] chai, as far as the XP drive itself is concerned, when I boot from that it might/might not make it as far as the wavy logo screen and then it just restarts all over again [01:57] let's leave alient out of the equation... let's just say I edited my sudoers file by hand and accidentally took myself out [01:57] i was willing if someone could help me with a problem im having [01:57] jrcarr2: boot into recovery mode and issue the "visudo" command to repair your /etc/sudoers [01:58] just installed ubuntu 9.10 two days ago [01:58] karma_police: that's that edited version of Firefox I think, for a certain proccessor [01:58] !ask | santiago [01:58] oh ok.. whats the best browser out for 9.10? i'm using chrome and firefox 3.6.. can't get flash working on firefox tho [01:58] santiago: 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. :-) [01:58] maco, thanks!!

[01:59] sebsebseb, not hardly [01:59] darthanubis: what? [01:59] karma_police, install arora it more what you are looking for. small and fast [01:59] chai, quite a bit...what are you looking for in particular?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:02] darthanubis: not for Firefox in Ubuntu no, but the same Flash that people would get the normal way e.g. sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer will work in epiphany and galeon [02:02] Checkmate91 sounds like its not mounted to me [02:02] help! i need to create a launcher for a friends ubuntu pc, but i don't have a clue [02:02] its like the new firefox isn't recognizing the flash that i currently have installed.. prolly my error somewhere [02:02] sebsebseb, has nothing to do with his issue [02:02] Gstar, I agree but I think Ubuntu does not know it is there for mounting [02:03] karma_police, more than likely [02:03] i have an error with network nm-applet [02:03] !details | dukenight [02:03] dukenight: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [02:03] Checkmate91 have your tried mounting it manually? [02:03] i want it to runs some commands... [02:03] 3.6 isn't in the repo's.. i dl'd the installer [02:03] in karmic koala, sometimes it dissapear [02:03] karma_police, wrong thing to do [02:03] nickkontos: Right-click and Create Launcher. [02:04] Gstar, with something like mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/disk -o force [02:04] darthanubis: yeah for some reason he has gone 3.6, when really he could have probably stayed with Firefox that came with Ubuntu, or used some other browser instead of getting 3.6 [02:04] karma_police, mozilla has a f=daily ppa to install mozilla that you add to your software repositi=ories [02:04] i don't know how to uninstall it either,, [02:04] Gstar, the thing is fdisk -l does not see this harddrive [02:04] karma_police, that is why you should not have installed that way [02:04] where do i get the ppa? [02:04] darthanubis: kinja-sheep well yeah the mozilla ppa is the proper way to get 3.6, however ppa's can cause issues when upgrading Ubuntu to a later version and that kind of thing [02:04] karma_police, don't just punch buttons [02:04] kinja-sheep: no not you [02:04] karma_police: see above [02:05] I need some commands to run on startup: starting mysql and cups, currently I have to run "sudo /etc/init.d/virtualbox-ose restart && sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart && sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart" the moment I log on [02:05] i probed kill idtask, reload applet but the icon dont appear [02:05] sebsebseb: I feel rejected now. :( [02:05] sebsebseb, PPAs cause no problems when upgrading because people who use them know to disable them before an upgrade [02:05] how i can use bluecove in linux?? [02:05] the upgrader disables them anyway [02:05] it does not work [02:06] darthanubis: loads of people that have done ppa's do not disable them before upgrading to a later version of Ubuntu [02:06] Checkmate91 your mounting wrong [02:06] somebody can help me? [02:06] I have 5 hdds in my server. I installed the server without a screen so I've only managed to format one of them. How do I do now? [02:06] Gstar, suggestion? [02:06] sebsebseb, that is not to blame on the PPA, it is called user error [02:06] kinja-sheep, well yes, this far I know, I want it to run "tvtime -d /dev/video1" and "sox -c 2 -s -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -r 32000 /dev/dsp" at the same time, without the guy seeing an open terminal and (this is the tricky part) when the window of tvtime closes it has to close the sox that is running sillenly in the background... [02:06] sebsebseb: upgrade disables the ppa's before updating the sources.list [02:06] Does someone knows about this problem : When I click restart, then my laptop process to restart, but when it should be restarted it just stay's there with Blank black screen, ready to reboot but it wont. I have to manually cut off the power, and then boot it again. It is so very annoying. Laptop : Asus X80 1GB ram, 160GB HDD Ubuntu 9.10 fully updated.

[02:07] kinja-sheep, FYI "sox -c 2 -s -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -r 32000 /dev/dsp" this command reads the input at 32 KHz from /dev/dsp2 and writes it out to my soundcard at /dev/dsp [02:07] RaiN88, good an you? [02:08] fine too.. [02:08] RaiN88, good [02:08] how are you using ubuntu? [02:08] RaiN88, yup [02:08] how long are you using ubuntu? * [02:08] RaiN88, since it started [02:08] hmmm..

[02:14] I am fairly new to the whole linux os and still learning what apps run through linux. any suggestions on linux based irc clients.

[02:19] abms1116, if they are on the same partition [02:19] yea its taking me a bit to get use to linux. This is my 5th time in the past 6 years that I am trying to learn linux to make my primary os. I am determined to stick with it this time [02:19] what seems wrong ?! :( [02:19] what do i need to do in order for it to use the repo version? [02:19] my original question: I have to run these commands "sudo /etc/init.d/virtualbox-ose restart && sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart && sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart" everytime I log in to get things to work. How can I make it automatic when I start the computer? [02:19] TheTortyl_, that is all it takes, determination [02:19] its just odd to feel so cumbersome and be out of the look [02:19] loop [02:19] how i can i use a live cd to recover an existing system (i.e. installing new kernel, rebuilding grub, etc)? will i need to chroot and the sorts? [02:20] stevenheidel qrite a shell script [02:20] *write [02:20] stevenheidel does that code works? [02:20] TheTortyl_: you and me both... I started with suse in 2000 give or take and got frustrated went back to xp...and then recently came back to linux, hopefully for good [02:20] stevenheidel: i would probably recommend finding out WHY that is required? [02:20] stevenheidel: First off, use 'sudo service cups restart' and similar rather than calling the script path directly. [02:20] TheTortyl_, keeps one from being bored [02:20] i have all of them installed [02:20] and they are used all the other on my system [02:20] i've been using ubuntu sing 9.04.. i still have a lot to get used to [02:20] since* [02:20] and i never have to restart them to get them working. [02:20] stevenheidel: Second, try to figure out the real problem rather than hacking around it. [02:20] ^^ [02:20] morphix: ya, I used to not have to do that but then cups and mysql stopped working automatically [02:21] morphix: are they not starting at all on boot? or are they starting and screwing up on boot such that they need to be restarted? [02:21] TheTortyl_, if you don't like to read and look up things on the web, you will be daunted [02:21] TheTortyl_: I have re-installed about 5 different verisions of linux in the last 5 months :) [02:21] i hate that i made this firefox 3.6 mistake.. have to learn from mistakes somehow [02:21] couldnt he just add the command in fstab? [02:21] tonyayarusso: how do I figure out the original problem? [02:21] maco: (wrong person) === Guest42955 is now known as CoJaBo-Aztec [02:21] stevenheidel: Logs, hopefully. [02:21] karma_police, you have to read before you leap [02:21] i am firuring that out now [02:21] stevenheidel: are they not starting at all on boot? or are they starting and screwing up on boot such that they need to be restarted? [02:22] morphix: sorry [02:22] figuring* damn i hate this keyboard [02:22] tonyyarusso: thanks [02:22] stevenheidel: Services generally either have their own directory in /var/logs/ or write to syslog / messages. [02:22] maco: thats ok, i knew you meant steve... [02:22] maco: they're not starting at all [02:22] karma_police, Ubuntu has some of the best documentation, don't let it go to waste [02:22] i just have to figure out how to safely uninstall 3.6 and revert back to the original one [02:23] karma_police, it is uninstalled [02:23] is firefox undergoing some wack updates? [02:23] karma_police: you dont have to uninstall, they can both exist together [02:23] hey, was wondering if anyone knew how to get a laptop running ubuntu 9.10 to boot to the command line then when i want it to start gnome, i searched the forums and used boot up manager but ubuntu ended up restarting in recovery mode :( [02:23] stevenheidel: have you at all been playing around with /etc/init.d/ and /etc/rc.*/ scripts? [02:23] jiohdi, he WANTS it uninstalled [02:23] stevenheidel: or the command chkconfig [02:23] ? [02:23] it still shows 3.6 when i click help.about [02:23] morphix: I tried adding to rc.local on the suggestion of IRC last time but it didn't work [02:24] maco: no I haven't tried that [02:24] stevenheidel: ok... [02:24] stevenheidel: do the logs say maybe that some service needs to start before them and isnt, but its running by the time you manually start them? [02:24] hey [02:24] it isn't uninstalled.. all i did was delete the file to install it with so far [02:25] hamgammon runlevel N 3 [02:25] karma_police, you are now going to have to research what you did, and back trace. Look for an ubibstall script. [02:25] maco: the cups logs say "E [26/Jan/2010:10:10:17 -0600] Unable to remove temporary file "/var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip" - Is a directory" [02:25] hamgammon sorry telinit 3 [02:25] maco: there are no files in the mysql directory [02:25] test [02:25] emma, test [02:26] Gstar: sorry what do you mean, while in boot up manager? [02:26] it happened again [02:26] switchgirl: at times the whole channel stops and i see no posts but my own, and then i get all of them all at oncce. [02:27] Guys, this is the only place I know where to ask this. I was connecting my cell phone up to my ubuntu computer, and then this happened to the cell phone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjHQbQAGpgI [02:27] emma: what do the pings show [02:27] Can anyone tell me if that is hardware or software related... [02:27] emma: it could be your connection is lagging. [02:27] oh thats worth trying java.freenode for [02:27] kermit: stop the pings now to get the data? [02:27] maco: command chkconfig shows cups as off but printers are still working [02:27] emma: no, just look [02:28] emma: look at them for the time frame you felt lagged [02:28] stevenheidel: in runlevel 2? chkconfig tells you what should run automatically at boot, not what is running right now [02:28] stevenheidel: chkconfig --list | grep cups [02:28] kermit: that time has already scrolled away.. [02:28] stevenheidel: for example [02:28] emma: you dotn have scrollback?? [02:29] maco: 2 is off [02:29] stevenheidel: ok try turning that on then [02:29] emma: but regardless, its easier to look when it happens than to try to do time math [02:29] chkconfig? [02:29] stevenheidel: if i remember right... sudo chkconfig add cups --levels 2 [02:29] why not use sysv-rc-conf? [02:29] If anyone knows what's wrong with the touchscreen, or knows about touch screens, help is appreciated [02:29] morphix: ubuntu doesnt use sysv init scripts? [02:30] morphix: and umm... because i happened to know about chkconfig due to my training on red hat [02:30] yeah it does. [02:30] I have a question [02:30] eh [02:30] morphix: no... ubuntu uses upstart, not sysv [02:30] !upstart > morphix [02:30] morphix, please see my private message [02:30] if I'm running Ubuntu 9.1, and I have an ATI x1300 in my laptop [02:30] !upstart > kermit [02:30] kermit, please see my private message [02:30] am I pretty much screwed now on getting binaries to work [02:31] everything I've tried to find points to no longer supported in new kernel [02:31] estou com um erro no gedit, alguem pode me ajudar?

[02:46] yeah, usually [02:46] ur right [02:46] u have to get the DLX-crack [02:46] ballsac: Say something. [02:46] ballsac: Can you acknowledge me? [02:46] ok. I'll get that crack. I have a rapidshare PREMIUM account, btw :) [02:47] yeah, so do i [02:47] that helps. [02:47] RaiN88 Lots of fun ones to pick from here - http://gnome-look.org/ [02:47] you're acknowledged, kanja-ship [02:47] yeah [02:47] i knw that [02:47] ballsac: Nice. [02:47] What themes you can suggest or share your themes with me?! [02:47] So why does ubuntu refuse to install? I heard ubuntu is easy to use but why is it so difficult to install? [02:48] ballsac: A boot cdrom iso needs a boot setup so the computer knows how to boot it .. its like the boot loader on you hard drive except its on a cd .. its a LOT harder to set up though because its part of an image [02:48] balisac try using the Pen Drive [02:48] got my problem sorted, added text on the end of my ubuntu grub entry, so simple, so 9.10 uses grub 2 now? [02:48] maybe your crack is 128 bit and not 64 bit? [02:48] ballsac: you cant just put a rar to a iso with out setting up all the crazy ness that goes with the boot loader [02:48] ballsac: dude there is no crack get the real deal at ubuntu.com [02:48] avi_: stop trolling [02:48] LOL [02:49] seriously,, just dl it from ubuntu.com [02:49] how do I modify my .iso file [02:49] Jef91 what themes are you using, and what themes can you suggest for others to use? === mauricio is now known as _mau [02:49] 128 bit? [02:49] is ubuntu.com safe from viruses? [02:49] Sorry, fighting trolls with trolling. [02:49] avi_: don't. [02:49] Right, obviously. [02:49] !ops avi_ trolling [02:49] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:49] ls -l [02:50] ballsac, stop using the windows crap images .. get http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download [02:50] ballsac: since you know the ops trigger, you're obviously not new to this channel. please stop trolling. [02:50] <_mau> does anyone know how can I change my shell's/console frequency? [02:51] mneptok: are you an op or staff? [02:51] <_mau> ubuntu is changing the frequency to 82~83 MHz and i'm getting warnings from my monitor... [02:51] the trigger is common to all of freenode [02:51] ballsac: Ubuntu is the ultimate operating system its the full deal. Its open source meaning its already owned by the general public thus you cant sell it. Its a open product free for everyone. And yes ubuntu is save from viruses and all kinds of junk out there on the web. Linux is probably the safest operating system there is. [02:51] _mau: it seems ubuntu is super hard to install and noone here is willing to helpme with it! [02:52] ballsac: Thats why google uses it .. and really how often do you see google fail [02:52] RaiN88: i like Aurora Leopard BSM. you have to get three files from there tho [02:52] ballsac: if the majority has no problem, maybe the problem is you [02:52] ballsac: um no that trigger is specific to whatever bot is in the channel, IF the channel even has a bot [02:52] onetinsoldier can you give me the link? [02:53] ballsac: its simple as going to the ubuntu.com site download the iso and burn the image to a cd/dvd , reboot into the cd and you can install from right on the live CD by clicking on desktop icon [02:53] nn-main: I see what you're saying. you sound really learned, not like the others in this channel. most people are basically abusing me here [02:53] ballsac: the way you are going about doing it is making it hard [02:53] ballsac: there is no .rar for ubuntu, or crack. if someone told you there is, they lied. [02:53] !themes [02:53] Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy [02:53] ballsac: http://releases.ubuntu.com and that's the end of telling where to download. [02:53] RaiN88: hang on... give me a minute or two and i'll see what i can do. are you running an x64 installation? or 32-bit? [02:53] maco: noone told me. I went to google and typed ubuntu and rapidshare just like I do for all software and I got those links to .rar [02:54] mneptok: :) thanks, an [02:54] ballsac: then someone on rapidshare played you for a fool [02:54] hmm [02:54] onetinsoldier 32bit [02:54] RaiN88: roger [02:54] :) [02:54] ballsac: bro, you dont need to crack free software [02:54] you shouldn't rely on rapidshare as a search provider [02:54] use google [02:54] maco: no. rapidshare is legal and good [02:55] RaiN88: what not 64-bit? is it an old sys? [02:55] ballsac: i said nothing about legality, just that anyone can upload any old thing and you dont now what kind of nastiness theyve done to it [02:55] <_mau> does anybody know how can i change the console's video frequency? I'm able to change the resolution, but not that. [02:55] ok.. got it working finally.. i'm gonna leave it alone from now on till repo updates it :) [02:55] hey everyone [02:55] onetinsoldier: Hmmf.. how can I upgrade my 32bit to 64? [02:55] Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down, how can i turn up the network??? [02:55] SolarisBoy: THAT's what I used. google. [02:56] i love the Bunt!! [02:56] its way more safe to download from ubuntu.com as maco said rapidshare as like any other sharing network has plent y dangers [02:56] ballsac; probably you have downloaded an virus not ubuntu [02:56] Hi, were do i change my computer name? [02:56] What is the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit? [02:56] ballsac: not typing rapidshare + ubuntu... just type ubuntu [02:56] ok lemme try [02:56] ballsac: no way does google lead you directly to rapidshare [02:56] SolarisBoy: please drop it [02:56] RaiN88 For the average user simply the max amount of RAM the system will take [02:57] yeah, y dled a .deb file from gnomelooks and it was a virus, beware [02:57] ? drop what? [02:57] RaiN88 A good rule of thumb is if you have >4 gigs of RAM use 32bit [02:57] is there any package that can help me to temporarily change my computer name??? [02:57] Jef91 Thanks [02:57] RaiN88: 32 bits....... :) No but really.. you have to have a dual core processor for 64 bit.. it's faster when it comes to video processing, audio processing etc.. normal stuff you won't notice [02:57] I only have 1gb :) [02:57] SolarisBoy: ballsac knows where to get official releases. no need for further discussion of Rapidshare. thanks. [02:57] RaiN88: you don't. that's something you choose before you install. you choose what to 'download'. the installer for 32-bit system, or you choose to download 64-bit [02:57] Jef91: No [02:57] Alan502: take the sticker off with some nailpolish remover and put a new sticker with the name [02:57] oh excuse me then [02:57] mneptok: don't discourage other people from helping me. [02:57] ok? [02:58] MiBo What? [02:58] mneptok: also, SolarisBoy is trying to help me,. don't stop that [02:58] drama [02:58] onetinsoldier: i see. what are the requirements? [02:58] RaiN88: here's a link --> http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Aurora+Leopard+BSM?content=92131 [02:58] onetinsoldier: thanks :) [02:58] ballsac: discussion of Rapidshare is offtopic. it's not related to support. i told you where to get official ISO images. please go there and do so. [02:58] So anyways, once I install ubuntu, how can I install MS Office on it? Is MS Office for ubuntu also free? === cyqotiq_ is now known as cyqotiq [02:59] I know you can't run setup.exe on ubuntu [02:59] ballsac, LMAO hahahaha i should have been more specific! [02:59] onetinsoldier: should I download it all? [02:59] 64 bit doesn't have much to do with Ram [02:59] nah, OpenOffice [02:59] ballsac: micorsoft office is propietary software [02:59] i keep getting an error when i try to install the latest wine, may someone help me please [02:59] its free and saves to .doc etc [02:59] ballsac, i meant like, my computer name is alan-laptop, but what if i want to change it to something else? to join a network for example [02:59] xangua: you spelled proprietary wrong. [02:59] ballsac: MS Office free.. never.. OpenOffice is though and it comes pre installed [02:59] RaiN88: get the 'icons' [02:59] you can install MS office through crossover linux but you should have a valid license [02:59] dont get MS office [02:59] get OpenOffice [03:00] ballsac: sorry for my bad english [03:00] comes standard w ubuntu installs [03:00] xangua: that's OK. does openoffice open .doc and .xls and .ppt? [03:00] I agree with mneptok [03:00] yes [03:00] RaiN88: get the icons... but for the 'Aurora Engine', you'll need to go elsewhere, as the link on there is to a 1.4 version. you need 1.5 [03:00] also, can I make real .doc documents with it? [03:00] yes [03:00] oh and another thing, [03:00] yes [03:00] ballsac: Open Office> Save As > choose MS Office-xxxx OR Same in "Excell" [03:00] it saves to .doc [03:00] Does photoshop work well with ubuntu? [03:00] going to find a different channel [03:00] ballsac: photoshop CS2 can work using wine [03:00] ok, so anyone smell a troll? [03:00] <_mau> I'm guessing I won't get any help around here. [03:00] ballsac, it does on wine [03:00] onetinsoldier: only the icons will I download?! [03:01] and spreadsheets too which can save to .xls [03:01] Me too [03:01] nomasteryoda: yes [03:01] whatsup mau? [03:01] ballsac: I have never found a program in windows that linux didn't have a equivalent in linux .. except it would seem as though the linux equivalants make the windows ones look REALLY poor [03:01] _mau, what's your question? [03:01] i havent found an equivalent for visio... [03:01] true nmmain [03:01] ok [03:01] SolarisBoy, true enough [03:01] definitely [03:01] <_mau> I'm wondering to know where can I set the video frequency for the console (i.e. when I exit gnome) [03:02] thanks mneptok [03:02] no idea [03:02] RaiN88: no, sorry. download the 'theme' and the 'icon set'.. just not the Aurora Gtk Engine. [03:02] some config file [03:02] onetinsoldier: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/MacUltimate+Leopard?content=82844 redirected me [03:02] one of the only reasons i actually rdesktop into windows boxes at work to view visio files [03:02] ballsac: photoshop => gimp; windows media player => mplayer or totem; Microsoft office => open office .. so on and so forth [03:02] wmp=vlc for me [03:03] nn-main, he was kicked off [03:03] <_mau> oraqol, I can't find it, even on google :/ [03:03] nn-main: the troll was already kicked [03:03] oh lol [03:03] How do I invert the colors on a window or the whole desktop? What is the keyboard shortcut to do that? [03:03] he was being a bit of a pain lol serves him right [03:03] can someone help me temporarily changing my computer name ? [03:03] he was troll? lol! [03:03] urthmover, in Compiz you can use any key combo, but normally the meta(win) key and N [03:04] Alan502: sudo hostname whatever [03:04] hostname ? [03:04] no idea [03:04] oh yea sudo too..=) [03:04] urthmover: if you use 'compiz' use the 'negative' plugin with Super+n or Super+m i think [03:04] Alan502: it will go back if you reboot or do another sudo hostname whatever [03:04] oraqol, caught onto him with the second question he asked [03:04] set in stone, far as i can tell [03:04] RaiN88: yep.. download the MacUltimate icons set [03:04] onetinsoldier: NOT FOUND [03:04] ok thanks xangua [03:04] RaiN88: what was not found? [03:04] urthmover, will that change it permanently or just temporarily? [03:04] onetinsoldier I cant download [03:04] no? [03:05] try to check the link [03:05] _mau, you can change console resolution from boot [03:05] in grub [03:05] Alan502: nano -w /etc/hostname [03:05] so./quit [03:05] RaiN88: you can't download the MacUltimate icon set? [03:05] urthmover, that's great, thanks a lot [03:05] Alan502: you are welcome [03:05] rly? so easy to change hostname, duh, feel dumb now [03:05] hi, i am in xubuntu , i can not find the shortcut settings function, where is it , i know it is in the sys>admin of gnome [03:05] onetinsoldier: check the download link of MacUlti http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/MacUltimate+Leopard?content=82844 [03:05] nn-main, that will change it permanently right [03:05] dont feel dumb [03:06] its all learning [03:06] no [03:06] RaiN88: ok, hang on [03:06] i just learned the yank command for vim this week [03:06] onetinsoldier: okay I will [03:06] <_mau> nomasteryoda, the problem is the vertical frequency on boot is one (60MHz), and when I leave gnome, it changes to 83Mhz and that's not supported by my monitor [03:06] committed to memory [03:06] Alan502 ya that will .. all though I forgot to put sudo before that command so sudo nano -w /etc/hostname [03:06] _mau, ok let me look [03:07] Ubuntu isn't recognizing my right alt key. WTF is going on? [03:07] nn-main, thanks a lot [03:07] GNS3 is the greatest thing since sliced bread and awesome on a very tight budget [03:07] nom: how u know he was troll, too easy questions? [03:07] <_mau> nomasteryoda, I'm able to change the resolution on grub's default file, but I can't define the frequency [03:07] k [03:07] RaiN88: it redirected me to here --> http://www.filefactory.com/file/ahdg427/n/MacUltimate_Leopard_2.3.tar.gz [03:07] there is a way ... i'm looking [03:07] RaiN88: can you grab it from there? [03:07] Lol guys when you get used to working with gentoo .. you know linux inside and out from the config files up .. Its a pain to learn gentoo but in the end you know how to fix anything in basically every linux system out there. [03:08] onetinsoldier: okay wait [03:08] urlwallace: GNS3 is cool [03:08] kevin01123, what's your computer [03:08] ? [03:08] Alan502: Acer laptop. [03:08] $ iwlist wlan0 scan [03:08] wlan0 Failed to read scan data : Network is down [03:08] how turn on? [03:08] Alan502: My menu button acts as my ALT button, it's strange. === speme_ is now known as speme [03:08] And it's never happened before. [03:08] <_mau> nomasteryoda, i'm using 9.10 64-bit (grub2) btw [03:08] In fact, I remember installing Karmic a while ago and this didn't happen. [03:08] k [03:08] TrueNhero: ifconfig wlan0 up [03:08] onetin: careful on gnomelooks, malware there, dont give root .deb files, bad medicine [03:08] me too _mau [03:09] onetinsoldier: wow! it's kinda big 15.6mb :D [03:09] kevin01123, hmmm did it occur just suddenly or did you do something that could have changed it? do you have the correct layout? [03:09] you too rain [03:09] oraqol: oh? hmmm, ok. well, i really like this theme i'm having RaiN88 get. i've used it for quite a while now, np here so far [03:09] what is the DownLoad Manger for Ubuntu?? [03:10] onetinsoldier: Thanks for sharing your themes :) [03:10] cool, i got burned, had to wipe my lappie [03:10] but if cleared then no worries [03:10] nn-main: i agree with your statement about gentoo, however, if you dont know the "Ubuntu way" you will only mess-up ubuntu n00b users.... [03:10] RaiN88: you're welcome. i didn't make it though. i just like it. :-) i just hope you can get it installed ok! [03:11] Alan502: I've done a fresh install. I chose a US keyboard with Eurosign on 5, and that's what my keyboard is. The USA standard has the same problem when using it. [03:11] onetinsoldier: okay! [03:11] RaiN88: no idea .. I just use wget for the bulk of my web gabbing [03:11] i want to run slackware but would miss apt-get waaaay too much [03:11] oraqol: Use aliases. [03:11] yo [03:11] nm-main: Okay! [03:11] kinja: what u mean? [03:11] oraqol: I'm actually considering going back. [03:11] RaiN88: so, you now have the theme and the icon set? if so, the need to get the Aurora Gtk Engine v1.5 now [03:12] Ubuntu can be infected by the malware and viruses ??? [03:12] Anacranom: the main general computer for the house is a ubuntu. I know the system to some extent plus I worked in debian for a while. [03:12] rain: yes [03:12] u give root 2 bash script u asking for trouble [03:12] RaiN88: No -- But if you kept installing silly things you found in the jungle wilderness of Internet. [03:12] onetinsoldier: not yet, still downloading ... [03:12] GNS3? [03:12] oraqol: how can I prevent this? [03:12] RaiN88: roger [03:13] graphical network simulator [03:13] SolarisBoy, is that Gentoo? [03:13] oic thanks [03:13] will I install anti-virus to my system? [03:13] only install from official repos [03:13] RaiN88: no it can not !!!! .. well not unless you right one your self to destroy your own personal files .. even so It wont be able to cripple the system .. just your user .. because its all it has access to [03:13] great nn-main ,,, good to hear... all i am saying is to be careful ;-) [03:13] should I? [03:13] This is the stupidest thing I've ever seen in a distro. How is it that the alt key could be switched like this? [03:14] the key is to not install anything from an untrusted source. if you stick to that advice you will be fine [03:14] Hey think a dell mini 9 almost brand new is worth $200? [03:14] With dells ubuntu? [03:14] kinja how will I prevent this stuffs?? [03:14] kevin: 4 mac users switching to bunt [03:14] onetinsoldier: already downloaded [03:14] onetinsoldier: what's next pal? :) [03:15] brb switching systems [03:15] I need help installing lastest wine on a Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) [03:15] RaiN88: the last thing is the Aurora Gtk Engine v1.5 [03:15] <_mau> nomasteryoda, I installed startupmanager and changed the resolution there. I'll see if that solves the problem. brb [03:15] RaiN88: i do not know for certain if there's a 32-bit version of it [03:15] !google wine ppa | brandon__ [03:15] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [03:15] Whats the command for setting wlan0 as active? [03:15] RaiN88: By sticking it to Official Repo and occasionally, trusted repos, you'll be fine. Don't install some random .deb from the Internet if you don't know what it is for. [03:15] mmm... [03:16] RaiN88: but try here first --> http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Aurora+Gtk+Engine?content=56438 [03:16] Kinja-sheep: OKay. I will, thanks for your advice :) [03:16] onetinsoldier: okay [03:17] RaiN88: you know how to install a .deb file? you'll want to install the Aurora Gtk Engine first [03:18] anyone rock colemak or dvorak here? [03:18] onetinsoldier: downloading successful , whats next? [03:18] onetinsoldier: dunno yet :( [03:18] hey, so, I'm almost out of space on my root partition. Is there a way to install certain applications on a different partition? Or else make an external drive be part of the root partition? [03:18] <_mau> nomasteryoda, that did not do it. [03:19] Why when I try to open a .php file in a web browswer on a newly-configured box, does it try to download it? [03:19] RaiN88: you've never installed a .deb package? [03:19] onetinsoldier: maybe [03:19] onetinsoldier: i dunno :) [03:19] onetinsoldier: He may not know he did. Or may not have done so from a tarball. [03:19] rain: double click, then type in password [03:19] RaiN88: it's pretty easy --> sudo dpkg -i [03:19] onetinsoldier: Im a noob on ubuntu [03:20] same as .exe in windoze [03:20] hi all im back im nn-main [03:20] onetinsoldier: using terminal? [03:20] RaiN88: yep [03:20] oh [03:20] lol [03:20] RaiN88, you don't have to use the terminal [03:20] you can install .deb's by clicking on them in the file manager [03:21] RaiN88: yeah.. you don't have to use the term. you could use something like.. gdebi-gtk [03:21] okay [03:21] use the terminal! [03:21] xterm ftw! [03:21] yeah use term to learn [03:21] i hear it! i use the terminal... a lot [03:21] Hey Anyone can help me please?

[03:22] rain: sudo dpkg -i [03:23] where will I find sudo? [03:23] Guest474, this is an ubuntu help channel, backtrack is a different distro [03:23] :( [03:23] just type it [03:23] RaiN88: /usr/bin/ [03:23] in terminal?

[03:24] RaiN88: i guess so. i expected you to have downloaded a .deb faile that you could install. perhaps the .deb is inside that tarball? [03:24] Cause im trying to install my Wireless Card but I cant download it from itnernet [03:24] I'm attempting to install dovecot, postfix, and roundcube, is there anything specific that needs to be done to get the three to work together? I tried it earlier, and roundcube was reporting an IMAP authentication failure when using working credentials [03:24] Guest474, what do you mean? You need a driver for your wireless card? [03:24] RaiN88: sudo is a command in the terminal the terminal is like your super fast navigation tool to the linux world .. It take some learning but make things so much easier in the long run [03:24] yeha [03:24] okay [03:24] RaiN88: tar -jxvf -C . [03:26] I have a command line program that receives text as a parameter like this: "a.out #here is the string I want to send to the program#". How do I type if I want to send the contents of a file to the program? Can I use "cat" and the "|"-operator somehow? [03:26] zagabar, yes [03:26] zagabar: echo >> file [03:27] i am in terminal now [03:27] zagabar: echo whatever you want > filename [03:27] whats next? huhuhu :( im so dumb [03:27] I have a problem with firefox on ubuntu 9.10 fresh install can some one help me [03:27] steven_ONeal: What is the problem? [03:27] zagabar: two >> appends text the the end of an already existing file [03:27] RaiN88: ok, so what's up? you still need to unpack that aurora tarball? [03:28] RaiN88: have you unpacked(unziiped) it yet? [03:28] i already xtraxt it [03:28] done [03:28] zoidfarb: how? [03:28] zagabar: becareful you dont overwrite a file [03:28] ok... did it have a .deb in it? [03:28] RaiN88: ok... did it have a .deb in it?

I want to read from it [03:29] arghh2d2: To send the contents of a file as a parameter for a command [03:29] if gmail.com/ig is set as home page and I click on home why dose it still redirect? [03:29] I didn't found one [03:29] zagabar: you can cat file | program [03:29] :( [03:29] steven_ONeal: Use google.com for home page? If gmail redirect to your gmail, then the cookies expired or is not there. Or such security reasons, either way. [03:30] RaiN88: well, what did that tarball have in it? [03:30] onetinsoldier: didn't found :( [03:30] zagabar: the | symble is know as a pipe. its a really fast way to pass stuff arround ... for instance ls | grep -F .jpeg | tee record.txt | xargs --verbose -I X convert X -resize 456x345 bobsoutput/X.png would be an example of bulk processing and converting jpeg images [03:30] RaiN88: maybe you should install 'file-roller' if it's not already installed [03:30] RaiN88: dpkg -l file-roller [03:30] okay [03:31] is it installed?

Would it be good to add an !ext4 mesage? [03:35] aurora.tar.bz2 and aurora-gtk-engine-1.5.tar.gz [03:36] rejohn: It is more of preferences and individual choices. There are !filesystem though.

[04:01] labose you have to network to the printer \\computer\printer like that [04:02] "System policy prevents installations/removal of device drivers" when i try to change my appearance preferences. It asks for root's password, but when I enter mine it doesnt work [04:02] what gives?

It may be our ISP and it may be Microsoft Small Business Server, but something is definitely traffic shaping aptitude on my work network, any ideas? [04:14] Shwack_D: whereis clamav?

[04:55] astropirate: Err, port forwarding. [04:55] DragonBook, just out of curiosity why not install synergy from the reps? [04:55] !vnc [04:55] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.

[05:02] I [05:02] Colloguy: Yup. [05:02] slefave, when i meant to describe your problem ***in one line***, as in dont use enter for punctuation I meant to describe the application youre trying to run under wine and the errors you are getting, the keyword here is **all in one line*** [05:02] I've uninstalled both wine and the program [05:03] ok sorry [05:03] kinja-sheep: so is this just reskinned notify-OSD that I'm using, or something else entirely? [05:04] Colloguy: Something different entirely, I believe. [05:04] hey guys. can synery be used with more than 2 systems? not at once, though [05:04] LordDragon: It can use up to 4, I think. Top, bottom, left, right.

[05:10] Colloguy: I don't know the solution but try purge libnotify-bin and install it again. MIght be configuration file. [05:10] wow [05:10] synergy is working perfect now [05:10] thanks guys :) [05:11] DragonBook, good ;) [05:11] kinja-sheep: oo, dpkg -S identifies notify-send as being part of libnotify [05:11] DragonBook, its a sweet tool [05:11] How can I get the nvidia restricted extras? [05:11] anyone notice a delay when the pointer is still for 10 seconds and then you try to move the mouse on the client? [05:11] kinja-sheep: I meant libnotify-bin [05:11] Colloguy: Yup.

[05:16] Colloguy: No. notify-osd is just a nice OSD -- written from scratch and is not a dependency package to anything else. [05:16] kinja-sheep: ty [05:16] I have done some looking around for causes but have come up with nothing so far, have also tried disabling serial /parallel ports, etc [05:16] how are you pal?

I have heard that its possible .. but nothing more [05:25] zetheroo: http://tinyurl.com/yad85hb [05:25] Not sure if I can help, since you're actually getting that far... aside from throwing random ideas at you. [05:25] i'm having problems with my audio software. often i cant hear anything, and often programs will close suddenly. is my audigy 4 to blame? [05:26] SectorX4: is it a gforce based motherboard? [05:26] Does it detect the networking hardware and then freeze, or does it freeze while detecting? [05:26] scunizi: nope, intel chipset [05:26] I installed Ubuntu to a VM with Windows Virtual PC, and it apparently doesn't recognize the virtual display that the VM offers, so I am stuck at 800x600.

[05:26] onetinsoldier: installing the .deb :) [05:26] RaiN88: roger. good work [05:26] Im just going back through the installer in expert mode to determine which step does itr [05:26] therealjon: does windows v pc have anything like "guest additions"? [05:27] onetinsolder: installed [05:27] scunizi: not sure what you mean [05:27] The step after "Detect Network Hardware" is "Configure the network" assuming they go in order in this menu [05:27] I have tried unplugging the NIC but same thing [05:27] I mean unplugging the cable, NIC is onboard [05:27] therealjon: virtual box (which might be an easier solution for you) has "guest additions" .. basically a virtual cdrom with drivers for the guest os to use. [05:28] How can I enable nvidia restricted drivers? [05:28] RaiN88: ok, ready to install the theme and icon set then? Go to --> System --> Preferences --> Appearance [05:28] onetinsolder: roger that!

[05:28] becuase I installed Win98 on another one with no problem [05:28] and it recognized the monitor without me having to do anything [05:29] therealjon: but they don't install them into the guest automatically does it? [05:29] scunizi: Not in hardware drivers. I have all updates too. [05:29] !nvidia | dan [05:29] dan: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [05:29] onetinsolder: successfully installed the new theme [05:29] onetinsolder: Thank you so much!! :) [05:29] RaiN88: then navigate to where you downloaded the 92131-Aurora Leopard BSM.tar.gz file and 'install' it [05:29] dan: older card? [05:29] RaiN88: great! cheers! no the icons!.. then there is one last step! [05:29] no = now* [05:30] scunizi: nope, actually the geforce gt330m [05:30] onetinsolder: what step ? [05:30] RaiN88: you need to install the icon set... do it the same, if i recall correctly [05:30] Hmmm, installer just froze on the prompt for starting "PC card services" [05:30] dan: see if nvidia-glx-new is installed.. look in synaptic [05:31] Might just use expert install and skip the network detection [05:31] RaiN88: after you get the icon set applied, then you need to 'Save' the 'custom' theme that's in the 'Appearance' app window [05:31] /msg NickServ identify meyomo [05:31] scunizi: no, I did a clean install of Win98 from an ISO, and after it was done, and I booted up, it recognized the virtual display with no issues [05:32] let me get a screencap [05:32] can someone help me with a Thunderbird problem.. [05:32] onetinsolder: Roger that! [05:32] scunizi: I cant seem to find it in synaptic [05:32] hakonaj: reset your password and use the server tab in the future :) [05:32] dan: search for "nvidia" only and see what pops up [05:32] * iflema is that like dirty laundry.... omo [05:33] onetinsolder: Thank you so much!!! :) [05:33] RaiN88: cool. you get the icons set installed yet? what do you think of how the theme and the icons look? === bud is now known as Guest17668 [05:33] RaiN88: you're welcome! :-) [05:33] looks like the mac :) [05:33] RaiN88: yeah. it's a Mac knock-off theme [05:34] scunizi: I see things like nvidia-glx-96 ect. but no "nvidia-glx-new" [05:34] therealjon: but that's a windows guest on a windows machine.. no reason why windows would want to support linux.. linux can be a bit different.. take a look at Virtualbox.org and give that a shot.. it's a cross platform VM server. [05:34] onetinsolder: yeah! you rocks :) [05:34] well okay... but it doesn't make any sense to me why they would support Win98 [05:34] RaiN88: but anyway, you now have an idea on how to install a theme. not all are installed exactly like this. some have even more specialized install method ;-) [05:34] they don't officially support with updates et al :/ [05:34] dan: you might be relegated to installing the binary from nvidia.. it's newer but you'll have to reinstall with each kernel upgrade [05:34] Why does the question as to weather to start "PC Card Services" come under the "Detect Disks" area? [05:34] RaiN88: cheers, enjoy :-) [05:35] scunizi: How do I go about doing this? [05:35] So frustrating -_- [05:35] therealjon: the api's are similar if not the same [05:35] onetinsolder: :) thanks again! [05:35] meh [05:36] RaiN88: and, last but not least... you can customize a couple of things about this theme. for instance. i consider this theme to be silver/grey. i change the 'background color' to a shade of blue i like and saved it. did the same with a shade of green ;-) [05:37] Hey all got a question about an Ubuntu install. I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on a computer, and after the post I get directed to a text log-in prompt. I log in and then it tells me how many packages can be up dated then it seems like an error message saying "Intel AES-NI instructions not detected"... anyone care to share their wealth of knowlege on this one? [05:37] dan: download the driver to your desktop .. then ctrl+alt+F2 to get to a tty.. log in .. type "sudo service gdm stop".. then type .. cd ~/Desktop .. to change directories to the Disktop.. then ... sudo apt-get install build-essential && sudo ./NVI .. and it should install [05:37] onetinsolder: thanks for the info :) I will try to do that. === topo1 is now known as topo [05:38] RaiN88: roger. it's in that 'Appearance Preferences' app. cheers [05:38] scunizi: Im sorry I have no idea which driver I need. [05:38] whats up everyone [05:38] i just got done installing the new 9.10 ubuntu [05:38] it does let me put in commands in the terminal prompt though [05:38] how can I overwrite grub, I have two instances one on hda and I need hdb one to boot [05:38] dan: hang on. [05:38] and get rid of the one on hda [05:38] scunizi: Thanks [05:38] onetinsolder: roger that! [05:39] can anyone tell me how i can get voice chat to work with ubuntu [05:39] Empathy worked OOTB for me. What client is the other person using? [05:39] hi everybody, i have multiple network cards (2 wired cards and 1 wifi card) on my system, how do i enable just one at a time? [05:39] dan: you running 64 bit or 32 [05:39] 64 [05:39] Anyone know the command to update the system packages in terminal? maybe that would work? [05:39] Hi, for some reason nautilus its showing an entry in the places side panel which does not match any media? [05:39] Myke1: sudo aptitude update [05:39] Myke1: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [05:39] scunizi: does ubuntu have a patch adding support for Windows PnP monitors? [05:40] let me try that... be back in a sec? [05:40] dan: here you go.. http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_190.53.html [05:40] ubuntu 9.10 configured everything on my computer no problem what so ever [05:40] therealjon: PnP .. meaning plug n play? [05:40] yeah, sorry [05:41] !bug [05:41] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs - Bugs in/wishes for the IRC bots (not Ubuntu) can be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [05:41] therealjon: it should configure your pnp monitor [05:41] xrockerx: I'm installing on a VM [05:41] apparently the virtual driver is (supposedly) compatible [05:41] scunizi: thanks for finding that for me. Ill try it now [05:41] How can I change the default nautilus places side panel? [05:41] therealjon: if it's PnP then the system receives info from the monitor telling the system what it's capable of.. so for a real install (ie no VM).. you won't need a patch.. it just works.. [05:41] kk [05:42] therealjohn: oh sorry i wiped my computer out complete and installed ubuntu 9.10 [05:42] it runs really great [05:42] I think the issue with my install might be drivers for the LSI Cointroller [05:44] I need some help with winff. I have a wide aspect ratio movie and for some reason when I put it through winff, even though I tell it to keep a 16:9 ratio, it's making it standard TV ratio...is it because I'm telling it to make it for the xbox360 maybe? [05:44] how to open file by double clicking [05:45] Does anyone know where I could find a list of compatible SCSI controllers for Ubuntu server? the standard HCL list is very limited [05:45] actually i want mouse behaviour like windows xp [05:45] scunizi: this happened last time you were helping me on here and it tells me something about jackd and makes me have to reboot [05:45] dan: jackd? [05:45] SectorX4: Every SCSI controller I have tried has worked, try googling "Linux SCSI support". Everything Linux supports, Ubuntu will support [05:45] How can I change the default nautilus places side panel? bump [05:46] scunizi: correct. I've never heard of it [05:46] plz help, how to open file by double clicking; actually i want mouse behaviour like windows xp [05:46] dan: are you running ubuntu or mythbuntu or medibuntu? [05:46] jekshadow: I have, no luck [05:46] xubuntu [05:46] topo, open nautilus window and then type CTRL+B [05:47] its a black screen saying its unmounting all of this stuff, and then says something about jackd. I am running ubuntu ultimate edition. I upgraded to 9.04 from 8.10 [05:47] topo: drag stuff onto it to add, right-click and press Remove to remove. [05:47] SectorX4: http://hardware4linux.info/type/43/ [05:48] mkanyicy: That only allows me to change some of them the one I want to remove is one of the default media [05:48] rww, you cannot right click Places [05:48] scunizi: ultimate edition seems to be a pain. I may try reinstalling with 9.04 instead of this ultimate edition crap [05:48] topo, you need to configure your fstab file then [05:48] mkanyicy: you can right click the items in the places side-panel in Nautilus [05:48] jekshadow: thanks, checking it out now [05:49] rww: Im triyng to remove one of the defult ones like trash [05:49] dan: jackd I suspect is an audio layer/program called jack.. sounds like the ultimate edition removes pulse audio and alsa.. they may have many other changes.. if you don't have any data to save try installing bone stock ubuntu and see what happens [05:49] rww, I know but you did not specify, your 'it' was a bit vague [05:49] hi everybody, i have multiple network cards (2 wired cards and 1 wifi card) on my system, how do i enable just one at a time? [05:49] how to open open nautilus window and then type CTRL+B [05:49] mkanyicy: considering that topo said "the default nautilus places side panel", I really don't think so. [05:50] mkanyicy: the places menu its showing a 105 gb media that doesnt exist in my system [05:50] topo: Lies. Do "sudo fdisk -l" and http://pastebin.com/ it [05:50] rww, sorry I got the question wrong in the first place [05:50] topo: ah. I don't know how to do that, sorry :( [05:51] mkanyicy: no problem [05:51] scunizi: thats correct. I saw everything about pulse audio and there are a lot of other changes. I'm mainly just trying to get ubuntu running smoothly again. It was on my 3 month old laptop until the hard drive failed. oh well. Im going to install 9.04 64 bit and i will probably be back with questions. Thanks for the help [05:51] topo, pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' [05:51] dan: do 9.10 [05:52] is this for me> "sudo fdisk -l" and http://pastebin.com/ it rww [05:52] scunizi: I tried 9.10 and it ran worse on here than this 8.10 UE upgrade [05:52] rudra: perhaps you should ask the person that said it ;) [05:52] dan: howz that? in what way? [05:53] rww can u help me?? [05:53] mkanyicy: http://pastebin.com/m4f60ab15 [05:53] i want mouse behaviour like windows xp === temp is now known as abhinav-xx [05:54] scunizi: it was slow, I couldn't log in, looked terrible. Maybe it was a bad disk, but i was disappointed [05:54] rudra: that doesn't mean anything to us here. [05:54] scunizi: Link me to the download for 64 bit karmic koala please? [05:54] I beliebe I saw someone in here run a command in ubuntu and send it directly to a pastebin page, anyone know how to do that? [05:54] topo, are you mounting all these partitions? [05:55] dan: click "Alternative download options, including Ubuntu installer for Windows" on http://download.ubuntu.com/ [05:55] dan: I had 8.10 installed (gnome) and had more room on one of my drives so I installed kubuntu.. I really like it.. even after 5 yrs on gnome... I'll get the link.. [05:55] topo, because if one of them is not on fstab then it wil show up under places [05:55] !pastebinit [05:55] pastebinit is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit === madcap is now known as madcap` [05:56] rudra, i thought mouse behaves like in windows isnt it? [05:56] mkanyicy: There's no dev/sda2 in the fstab [05:56] dan: you want a torrent?? they're faster to download [05:56] thanks nomad77 [05:56] sure [05:56] when using RAID 1, it's possible to take out one of the drives and just use it without RAID, right? meaning, RAID 1 just makes exact copies, it doesn't do anything that requires a RAID setup to use, correct? [05:56] scunizi: torrent is fine. I've never used kubuntu though [05:57] topo, then if you put it there and mount it it will stop showing up under places, and if you do not want to do that, then live with it [05:57] topo, sorry sda2 is an extended partition [05:57] anybody ever have any trouble with windows sticking? [05:57] dan: it's different.. UI is more polished.. behind the scenes it's pretty smooth but has it's stubmling blocks.. which do you want . gnome or kde? [05:58] Do you use the KDE or gnome? [05:58] can you pastebin your fstab file topo ? [05:58] dan: been on gnome for 5 yrs. now on kde :) [05:58] scunizi, thats a pretty long time [05:59] I am having trouble with permission issues can someone help me understand what is going on with permssions to files and directorys [05:59] mkanyicy: http://pastebin.com/m4937643f [05:59] dan: you can actually have both on the same install.. if you're use to gnome stick with it for now [05:59] scunizi: ill try the kde ;) [05:59] k [06:00] dan http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download [06:01] scunizi: is there anything I should do before installing kubuntu? I dont have any files on ubuntu that I need but im running a dual boot with windows 7. [06:01] how can I overwrite grub, I have two instances one on hda and I need hdb one to boot [06:01] Hey [06:01] topo, i suspect the windows partition, anyway pastebin 'df -h' so I can confirm [06:01] dan: when you get to the partition portion of install, choose manual and manually tag the partitions you want to use and how they should be mounted.. [06:02] hi [06:02] CAN anyone help me with SSH? I can ssh my machine from the lan. I can ping it over the net. But the connection times out. The port is forwarded correctly [06:02] scunizi: so its basically the same as a fresh ubuntu install? [06:02] dan: yep.. [06:02] mkanyicy: http://pastebin.com/m7e32bb82 I suspected the windows partition also but it's not the rigth size [06:02] evening all [06:03] scunizi: sounds good. I really hope I like the KDE. [06:03] topo, it the windows partition! [06:03] What is can you suggest for me a project proposal for System Analysis and Design? anyone? [06:03] dan: eek... the new kde was disappointing for me [06:03] dan: take a look at their site at kubuntu.org.. kde was fully rewritten in the last 2 yrs or so.. it's a nice desktop [06:04] ubottu: ot | RaiN88 [06:04] RaiN88: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [06:04] linux_inferno: were you use to kde 3.5? [06:04] mkanyicy: Thanks, how can i fix ti? [06:04] mkanyicy: Thanks, how can i fix it? * [06:04] topo, replace the fstab line "UUID=8CB0939BB09389FA /mnt/windows ntfs-3g umask=000,noauto 0 0" with "UUID=8CB0939BB09389FA /mnt/windows ntfs-3g defaults,umask=0000 0 0" and reboot [06:04] i want to disable these popups >> http://img693.imageshack.us/img693/3108/snapshot1c.png [06:04] how ? [06:05] scunizi: Yea. I got used to kde 4. but everything was just broken. I loved kubuntu on my lappy but went back to gdm about the same time linus torvold did === joke is now known as Guest35734 [06:05] linux_inferno: 4.3 is nice and 4.4 will be here soon in lucid [06:05] anything is better than windows [06:06] topo, its the 'noauto' option that makes it not to mount at boot time, as a result, it shows up under Places [06:06] scunizi: Thanks for the help. About to preform a fresh install when its done downloading. 12% done already. Thank God for the schools T3 [06:06] mkanyicy: Thanks a lot, will try it and report back [06:06] dan: must be nice :) [06:06] scunizi: yea i suppose. but with the programs I use i have to keep the desktop effects off. I don't really see a need to move back now that everyhting is super stable [06:07] dan Im going to have to disagree. I have a macbook pro and only have ubuntu and windows on it. I HATE OSX [06:07] dan linux_inferno gotta run.. sleep then work.. have fun [06:07] Anyone know why the prompt during setup to "Start PC card services" would be freezing my install? [06:07] np [06:08] scunizi: cya [06:08] scunizi: thanks and see ya [06:08] It prompts me twice to do it and second time it freezes [06:08] well getting rid of xorg.conf and running nvidia-xconf didn't fix the problem [06:08] linux_inferno: Why the macbook pro? You're in it for hardware? [06:08] SectorX4: no idea.... you have them installed correctly (i mean if they need more power cords theyr getting them) [06:08] linuz inferno: never used osx. Just got into ubuntu the last year because I got tired of windows crashing and all the viruses [06:09] linux_inferno I don't have a card reader in this system [06:09] That's partly why im confused [06:09] CET major though. So linux helps out in the long run. [06:09] kinja-sheep: because I got one with applecare . the best most scam-able warrantee ever [06:10] ubuntu based android' [06:11] hi somebody know how i can access to ubuntu-server? [06:12] roxy10, you are vague [06:12] i'm looking for an single board powerpc computer for a hobby project (ie, $<500). the only thing I can find is the $270 ppc board from embeddedarm.com. are there any other options? [06:12] roxy10, over the network or directly? [06:13] over the network...im trying to use irc... [06:13] roxy10, use ssh [06:13] but i got a message that say i need to identify before [06:14] papshmear: depends on what you want to do... my ps3 has the fedora10 PPC on it === topo1 is now known as topo [06:14] You need to be identified to join that channel [06:14] mkanyicy: modified the fstab but the 105.9 Gb Media its still showing in the places panel === Mowee is now known as Mowee`Bnc [06:15] Does anyone know why I cant SSH my machine over the internet. Im using DYNDNS and have the port forwarded [06:15] topo, that is very strange [06:15] Can you SSH in locally linux_inferno? [06:15] linux_inferno: unfortunately I need a much smaller form factor/less power consumption. [06:16] SectorX4: Yes I can. If i turn the port forward off i get connection refused over the net. If i turn it on it times out [06:16] topo, pastebin 'df -h' again as well as 'ls -l /dev/disk/by-label' as well as 'ls -l /mnt' [06:16] SectorX4: worded that weird. you get what i meant? [06:16] Yeah I get you [06:17] somebody can invite me to ubuntu-server please? [06:17] Basically proves that its listening [06:17] does any one here have the webcalendar installed? [06:17] SectorX4: but yea... I can ssh it from the lan and log in and get the key [06:17] So you're using keys? [06:18] SectorX4: default keys [06:18] hey anybody can help me in multicasting [06:19] linux_inferno: ssh server is behind nat? [06:19] I am currently having issues with directory permission, I am using apache and added a directory to the /var/www folder. ubuntu is saying I can't acess these files because of permission error, [06:19] papshmear: uhhhh idk.... you mean the router setting>? [06:19] mkanyicy: there you go http://pastebin.com/m7cb8a39e [06:20] somebdy know how to configurate openldap in ubuntu 9.04, the new version doesn't have slapd.conf [06:20] drunkenangel: well.. did you set the permission/ownership correctly? [06:20] anybody can help me in multicast server [06:20] linux_inferno if you're forwarding the port on the router you're most likely behind nat [06:20] I am confused on what to set to who [06:20] ZSNES won't close. I type pidof zsnes and it gives me 22084 i type kill 22084 and nothing - i type sudo killall zsnes and nothing [06:20] is there a way to get the command sent to pastebin with pastebinit? I can't find a flag for it [06:20] linux_inferno: what is your router? how did you set up port forwarding? is nmap to the port showing anything? [06:20] PID is always a 4 digit number [06:21] Shwack: kill -9 [06:21] Zyxon: uh, no [06:21] Is there anyway to have the Ubuntu install process write to a log so I can see why it's freezing? [06:21] SectorX4: Sure? Im not really familiar with nat - papshmear its a linksys wrt54g with ddwrt firmware. [06:21] I do not understand how the client knows about the existence of any particular multicastgroup [06:21] Zyxon: init has pid 1 [06:21] Doesn't the dd-wrt run ssh as well? [06:21] topo, i dont know [06:22] papshmear: didn't work [06:22] I started reading on permission and how to use the ls command to view the permission of the files in a directory, So I know that I need the user www-data to be able to read the directory with the /www folders so I thought I could do su www-data to change to the user and then do chmod 755 folder [06:22] SectorX4: IDK i can check [06:22] Try ssh into the router [06:22] Shwack: kill -9 didn't work? [06:22] papshmear you didn't tell me to put last time - so I ddn't put it [06:22] If it responds then try changing your ssh port on your ubuntu box and forwarding that report [06:22] Where can I read about how permissions apply to Unix domain sockets (their meanings for R, W, X)? [06:22] mkanyicy: Its there any way to reset nautilus? like a .nautilus folder? would that help? [06:23] papshmear it worked perfectly! thank you :) [06:23] drunkenangel: as root, chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/whatever [06:23] SectorX4: ssh router returned connection refused [06:23] drunkenangel, sudo chown -Rv www-data: /var/www [06:23] can anybody suggest an emulator better than ZSNES? [06:23] hmmm ok [06:23] drunkenangel: then chmod -R 755 /var/www/whatever [06:23] somebdy know how to configurate openldap in ubuntu 9.04, the new version doesn't have slapd.conf [06:23] Shwack: nintendo wii [06:23] linux_inferno: might be an idea to try changing the port anyway to eliminate any conflicts [06:23] topo, dont know either :( [06:23] emulator :) [06:23] If it doesn't help you can simply change it back [06:23] i dont have the money [06:24] Äîáðûé äåíü [06:24] SectorX4: I did. its not the default port. and i doublechecked that it wasnt on the used ports weblist [06:24] mkanyicy: thanks any way for all the help will keep poking [06:24] linux_inferno: ah ok [06:24] np topo [06:24] onetinsoldier [06:24] linux_inferno: you did configure port forwarding on the router's port 22 to forward to the ssh server's port 22, correct? [06:25] Shwack fceu [06:25] * RaiN88 onetinsoldier :) [06:25] êòî ïîìîæåò? òàêàÿ âîò ïðîáëåìà. áóíòà ñåðâåð 9.10, ïîñëå sudo ïðîñèò ïàðîëü. ââîæó, æìó åíòåð, îí íå ðåàãèðóåò (íèêàêèõ ñîîáùåíèé). ââîæó çàâåäîìî íåâåðíûé - ïèøåò ÷òî íåâåðíûé [06:25] linux_inferno: I don't suppose dd-wrt keeps logs of port forwarding? [06:25] papshmear: yea... but not 22... the port the ssh server is listening on [06:25] donKEY: stop! [06:25] Also just to make sure you're trying to connect outside the network from another location right? not trying to conect to the external IP from your LAN? [06:25] hammer time? [06:26] SectorX4: only in #ubuntu-offtopic ;) [06:26] how to search exclusively for a word in vim? [06:26] linux_inferno: do nmap -p 22 -PN [06:26] SectorX4: i dont see a logs section for it [06:26] iflema- does it add a button anywhere in hte menus or do I need to type a command in terminal to get it to run? [06:27] Anyone know if you can log the Ubuntu install process so I can determine why it's freezing? [06:27] just wanna throw this out there ; p flash 10 kills my fresh system install every time [06:27] I do not understand how the client knows about the existence of any particular multicast group [06:27] SectorX4 rather check your iso or cd for errors than that [06:28] papshmear: so if i had 50000 open you want me to type "nmap -p 50000 111.111.111.111 -PN" <- with the right ip [06:28] linux_inferno: yes. 50000 being the port on the router, not the one on the ssh server [06:28] SectorX4: have you tried using the text based installer? or alt cd [06:28] How do I invoke text installer? [06:29] skitzo 64bit? [06:29] 32 [06:29] causes windows to "stick" when text boxes are invoked [06:29] flash has been fine for me since version 10 [06:29] SectorX4: using the alternate disk its one of the F# keys that says modes. or i think you might be able to hit ESC to get to it [06:29] i'm sure it works for everyone but me [06:29] linux_inferno: How are you trying SSH externally? 3g adapter? [06:29] i've tried ubuntu studio and vanilla ubuntu [06:30] does it on both of them [06:30] SectorX4: DYNDNS [06:30] linux_inferno: I only have "normal" for mode, i checking the disc for defects atm [06:30] linux_inferno: but what type of internet connection are you using? [06:30] As you won't be able to get to the external IP while being internal to the network [06:30] finally figured out how to fix it by removing the adobe flash package then sudo rm -r ~/.macro(whatever the rest is) [06:31] SectorX4: cable? [06:31] linux_inferno: what SectorX4 is trying to get at is that your conenction from the outside is blocking outbound traffic to port 22 [06:31] Is there a command to split a file, in place? or remove the end of it? Basically, I want the opposite of a cat file >> file2. I'd love to say "Strip the last 2MB of data off the backend of this file, leave the rest" [06:31] papshmear: and im telling you that im not using port 22 [06:31] skitzo download the .tgz from the download site and make a folder ~/.mozilla/plugins = put extracted file in there = :) [06:31] e1ven: tail [06:31] linux_inferno: Have you tried SSH from a friends connection? [06:32] e1ven: tail and sponge, actually [06:32] skitzo uninstall others first [06:32] sponge? I'll look into it. [06:32] you wouldn't recommend swfdec over the official adobe? [06:32] As you won't be able to access the external interface (The IP that dyndns is probably pointing to) from the LAN, you'll need to be "outside" the network (Another internet connection) [06:32] e1ven: its in the package more-utils (or is it moreutils?) [06:32] SectorX4: yea. its the same dealy. [06:33] No hyphen. Got it. [06:33] I'll play with it. [06:33] Thanks! [06:33] skitzo if its for youtube and the like hang on soon flashless [06:33] Hi. I have a 64 bit install of 9.10 and on another hdd a 32bit install of 9.04. The 32 bit install is from another computer, w/o internet, and i need to update it. how do i do it? Chroot? Boot the drive? [06:33] e1ven: sponge 'soaks up' all input before writing to output. so you could do 'tail -n 10 file | sponge fil'. sponge waits for EOF before it writes [06:33] eh....well for whatever uses flash. like quakelive [06:34] s/fil/file [06:34] don't get me wrong i'm going for what you said right now ^_^ [06:34] no harm no foul ya know? i can always undo it [06:34] skitzo oh its ok.... flash should not be as is... [06:34] linux_inferno: Well im finishing work but I'd suggest you get someone to try ssh to your IP [06:34] Hey all is anyone having any performance issues with firefox on karmic? mine is almost unusable always freezing temporarily I have a powerful machine and disabled all addons so now I am using chrome but I do like using firefox [06:35] papshmear: What does it do until it gets it? Store it as a temp file? In-memory some place? I want to throw this against 100GB files, so I'm trying to find a way to do it in-place. [06:35] I'm trying to set up DAV SVN on a server, I've got it configured with a .pw file generated from htpasswd -c -m (user)... [06:35] It connects, and tells the server name [06:35] no issues with ff [06:35] but won't accept my user/pass combo [06:35] linux_inferno: http://www.whatsmyip.org/ports/ [06:35] btw do you mean ~/.mozilla/extensions or plugins? [06:35] pluca, Hardware? Intel? [06:35] But I'm sure the path is correct for the pw file, and the user and pass are right [06:36] e1ven: lol no idea. [06:36] What else should I look at for potential causes? [06:36] SectorX4: papshmear lets refer to my port as 50000 and ip as 111.111.111.111 from here out. I can ssh my machine on the lan. I can ping the dyndns name i have blank.blank.nu. If i ssh using porn 50000 to blank.blank.nu with out port forwarding on. i get Connection refused. SO i know its hittin the router. If i port forward. and ssh blank.blank.nu [06:36] skitzo /home/[whatever]/.mozilla/plugins [06:36] I get no responce [06:37] ok. just checking because mozilla has an extensions folder but no current plugins folder [06:37] skitzo uninstall others first [06:37] you mean other instances of flash? [06:37] So There is an issue somewhere between the router and the ssh server. i think [06:37] skitzo uhuh [06:37] emergion, Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, 8GB RAM [06:37] e1ven: it uses temp files === Chazz is now known as Guest77926 [06:37] * RaiN88 does anyone knows about this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots/+bug/513056 [06:37] e1ven: take a look at the source [06:37] Hi.

[09:14] metacity is the gnome window manager [09:14] retry, the user interface is so important nowadays [09:14] oh i see [09:14] and I think kwin is the kde window manager [09:14] retry: GNOME uses Metacity. KDE uses KWM. [09:14] mneptok, thanks for the info [09:14] Ah, thanks mneptok [09:14] ouyes, I think too much emphasis is put on the GUI these days [09:14] i think cmdline is powerful and important in any OS [09:15] and it's neglected too much these days because it's not simple for people [09:15] retry, the junior users needs an high accessibility and avalibility [09:15] retry: ubuntu 12.04 -- Command Line in HD [09:15] sagaci_, what?

[09:23] hero1900: you ned to change permissions on the mount point [09:24] EastDallas: didn't try. [09:24] you mean sdb1 [09:24] sagaci: I'm on it too. [09:24] mneptok, i know that and i am in there but you see there is fewer people then here [09:24] hero1900: no, where is it mounted>? [09:24] so what's stopping someone uploading a package to multiverse that screws your computer [09:24] hero1900, add uid=1001 to your optoins in /etc/fstab [09:24] well it is automatically mounted [09:24] where 1001 is the number of the user you want to have ownership [09:24] sagaci, no one i guess [09:24] to sdb1 in the media folder [09:24] EastDallas: By the way, all seems to work fine during the install, and lilo -b /dev/sda3 works fine too. [09:24] ouyes: that does not change the fact that this is primarily an Ubuntu support channel. not Xubuntu. [09:24] EastDallas: but finally doesn't boot. [09:25] I am looking to install a fresh OS on a server in my classroom. It is fileserver/web/sql/firewall etc.... Is there a way to migrate users to new install without having to manually re-create them (ie uid's and passwds)? [09:25] EastDallas : yeah i was but still the cracking sound does not go away , you mentioned it is a power save problem , i dont know if this helps but when i installed 9.10 i have to turn acpi=off could that be the problem? [09:25] indus: ah ok, fair enough, don't use it much anyway [09:25] sagaci: not sure it's really linked to studio, I would guess it's much more linked to Mac! [09:25] sagaci, thats why they have the ubuntu logo near a package [09:25] sagaci, to say its officially supported [09:25] retry is it for all or just for my flash [09:25] indus: so indus well then it's in restricted, right? [09:26] sagaci: I don't think just anyone can upload a package [09:26] hero, it would be for whatever mount point you set it for [09:26] EastDallas: do you really think lilo proces isn't the same in Ubuntu and UbuntuStudio ? [09:26] * iflema >.< [09:26] I would think there are checks in place [09:26] I do not think so [09:26] sagaci, its not uncontrolled, [09:26] sagaci, its tested by community members [09:26] i got a kernel problem.... what will i do? [09:26] hey guys, anyone here has ubuntu running on lenovos latest t410? [09:26] montom: honestly, I don't know if turning acpi off would have an effect. I just know the line you have to comment out as I suggested is related to power save. [09:26] pat|nG: boot into an earlier kernel [09:26] like me for example sagaci [09:27] orl_: no, it's probably the same, but you'll get a lot more help with regular ubuntu install than you will with ubuntu stuido :-/ [09:27] ardchoille, sagaci both universe and multi and community maintained, and i think the community is a safe group [09:27] indus: does it take much programming fu-ya to package a package [09:27] when i boot up my laptop i got this ubuntu generic and the other one is ubuntu generic recovery...before i got only 2 choices...ubuntu and win7 [09:27] what's ubuntu studio? [09:28] indus: thought so [09:28] EastDallas: ;) Sure, but OK, as the install process is quite the same (execpt realtime kernel, but at that time, it's not even arrived!) [09:28] sagaci, no, and now its even easier with launchpad which auto builds a package from source if you follow steps [09:28] EastDallas: so let's say I've tried to install Ubuntu on a Mac Intel [09:28] pat|nG, recovery is not abnormal entry [09:28] !ppa [09:28] With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad.

[10:03] w3l54666: if you're paying for your hotmail account [10:03] its not a huge problem but its annoying on my first boot of the day, the system crashes [10:03] hero1900, I'm at a loss to explain how you have all those extra partitions mounted when your fstab has 2 lines in it [10:03] Myrtti: but hotmail is free over the net [10:04] phox: chmod -R 77 /home/xxxxx/Downloads [10:04] biju: hi [10:04] w3l54666: I didn't think pop3 access was ? [10:04] aha do you know any way to reset this or to know what the hell is this?

[10:06] Hi, is there any Lucid Lynx-specific discussion channel? [10:06] rtgz: #ubuntu+1 [10:06] !lucid | rtgz [10:06] rtgz: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [10:06] hero1900, I can't explain why you get duplicates in gparted [10:06] Just asking: is there someone running Ubuntu with a Mac Intel here? [10:06] llutz, erUSUL thanks! [10:07] ubuntu users like free stuff..apples are damn expensive [10:07] aha but can i show you a screenshot of my gparted [10:07] hero1900, sure [10:07] retry: free as in free speech [10:07] how can i encrypt my /home so every time i login with ssh it asks for my encrypted passphrase aswell as ssh login? [10:07] retry: sure (it's not mine actually, and be sure I won't never buy something like that) [10:07] http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/653/screenshot005jy.png [10:07] phox: you shouldnt need to sudo if you are changing perms on files you own [10:07] llutz, free as in free beer...ubuntu users dont care so much about free speech [10:08] phox: files in your home directory i mean [10:08] if they did I could say f after a w and a t [10:08] hero1900, where's this duplication you speak of? [10:08] the mount point in gparted diffrent than the ordinary [10:09] so now when i click on my computer i will see 2 of each partition [10:09] one is working and another is not [10:09] huh? [10:09] wiki.ubuntu.com is down? [10:09] i mean it mount sda-- with diffrent names [10:09] retry: even free people should respect some rules. [10:09] so i got duplications [10:10] and the fstab mount names will not work [10:10] llutz, I don't disagree ... freedom is a finite resource we need to share it for the common good [10:10] how that happen and why gparted mount in diffrent names i dont know [10:11] mmmmm i didnt try to reinstall gparted [10:11] how can i encrypt my /home so every time i login with ssh it asks for my encrypted passphrase aswell as ssh login? [10:11] maybe it can fix things [10:11] hero, you should probably try to change the mount points so fstab and gparted match somehow [10:11] why do you even have nfts and fat mounts [10:12] if you aren't dual booting [10:12] they are automatically mounted [10:12] i didnt mount [10:12] wiki.ubuntu.com is down? Is it Yahoo's fault? [10:12] they already show up when i login [10:12] but you did a fresh install right? [10:12] you obviously chose those points [10:12] yes [10:12] when you did a custom set up [10:12] and chose those filesystems [10:12] chose for what [10:13] chose fat and ntfs [10:13] ha this is new to me [10:13] hero1900: did you see that your partition table is not in order [10:13] anyone use smoothwall?? [10:13] can i chose which partion can mount autimatically in instalation [10:13] sure [10:13] why did you make extended partitions inside a primary? [10:13] mmm [10:14] it was from before [10:14] hehehehehehhe [10:14] okey this also new to me [10:14] man I would just start over and let ubuntu do it for you [10:14] you probably dont want or need fat and ntfs partitions [10:14] if i create extended partitions then it will be automatically mounted [10:15] any suggestions on a firewall other than firestarter and gufw? [10:15] you dont have to to get auto mounts [10:15] yes i dont need and i wan to make them ext4 but i need to take data first [10:15] ls22123, it's all iptables in the end [10:15] right data [10:15] well time for some towers of hanoi for you [10:15] maybe so but iptables looks like a tuff road [10:15] I'd move all of one partition's data to another ...then wipe that partition [10:15] erm [10:16] how do i restart samba? [10:16] and so on [10:16] hero1900: your partition table is not in order, inbetween you have unallocated spaces [10:16] retry how i can search for this matter to understand is there any website [10:16] or phrase to search for [10:16] ls22123, it's worth understanding iptables though...use a gui tool to get going but learn to read the output from iptables-save [10:16] mmmmmm [10:17] i will do change it later since i got many data i need in those partitions [10:17] but for now i want to understand what retry talk about for partitioning [10:17] hero1900, pastebin contents of df -h would you [10:17] sure [10:17] Salve a tutti [10:18] hero, read the gparted manual [10:18] retry any good places to start learning iptables for a moron like myself?

[10:20] retry: it totally occupies 8GB [10:20] oh those are not actual devices on your machine rumpsy [10:20] actually that's all memory [10:20] retry: i know that, its belongs to hero1900 [10:20] you got 2G of ram right? [10:21] neure: you can try "sudo start samba" [10:21] ok [10:21] Myrtti unknown job samba [10:21] sdc is same flash no [10:21] well all those virtual file systems share the 2G of ram [10:21] hi all... I've encountered a malloc assert whilst using erlang, after doing a bit of googling it seems that the problem also affects at least one other program ("muse") the error is in http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d6be32d51. Is this a known gug, is there a workaround? [10:21] i got 4GB [10:21] bug* [10:21] those 2 gb are inside sda2 [10:21] you probably have 2GB allocated for their use then [10:21] ubuntu manage [10:21] neure: its like sudo service samba start [10:21] Myrtti, I installed samba with sudo aptitude install smbfs [10:21] since i didnt give home any size [10:22] ah [10:22] neure: smbfs != samba [10:22] or any folder i left them automatic [10:22] hmm [10:22] /dev/shm = shared memory [10:22] it's ram that you can use like a file system [10:22] llutz, so which one i need for samba server? [10:22] swap? [10:22] neure: samba [10:22] domiel, are you sure you've installed erlang properly ? [10:22] /dev is for devices that the kernel mounts and enumeratesa [10:22] not a real filesystem [10:22] aha [10:22] ah ok [10:23] neure: smbfs is needed to access cifs/smb-shares as client [10:23] right [10:23] silly me [10:23] i guess ubuntu puts /var/run and /var/lock in ram too [10:23] hey, why are all my gpg keys invalid all of a sudden? [10:23] mmmm [10:23] ak5: try to update it [10:23] did you see how duplication [10:23] yup it's half your RAM [10:24] abhinav-xx: yes... I built it in _exactly_ the same way as I did on my previous intrepid install [10:24] sdc is same as sdb [10:24] rumpsy: sudo apt-get update gives me plenty of errors about keys being invalid all of a sudden [10:24] i did sudo aptitude install samba and sudo service start samba still says unrecognized service... [10:24] sdc is totally messed up on your box hero [10:24] i know [10:24] if i restart it will goes [10:24] neure: try starting "smbd" [10:24] if i did run gparted then it will appear [10:24] crazy [10:25] Is there a faster way to start tilda than clicking Applications > Accessories > Tilda? [10:25] Callum_, unrecognized as well [10:25] bullgard, setting it to load on login? [10:25] ak5: check your repos [10:25] domiel, then maybe you can report a bug to the erlang-dev community [10:25] abhinav-xx: I've just come from #erlang as I first thought the problem was erlang specific but when I found a bug report on launchpad for muse with the same error assert from malloc I though maybe it was a well known bug [10:25] /etc/init.d/samba restart works [10:25] so samba is not yet using upstart? [10:25] ak5: uncheck everything except main server and give a try to update [10:26] rumpsy: http://pastebin.com/d4a631214 [10:27] ak5: That may be due to newly added repos, did you add any new repos [10:27] rumpsy: nope [10:27] rumpsy: and I updated fine yesterday [10:27] jihaa [10:27] got it working [10:27] :) [10:27] I'm using Opera in Ubuntu and I wonder why the system menu is hidden.

[10:27] rumpsy: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [10:28] On the ##opera channel I'm being told it has nothing to do with Opera, that it's a metacity or gnome thing [10:28] I mean, the top and bottom menu bars [10:28] ak5: Can you open synaptic [10:28] ak5, you need to reload your gpg keys I think [10:28] meco , screenshot please [10:28] ak5: And open repositories menu [10:28] retry: How do I take that? [10:29] rumpsy: ok [10:29] rumpsy: done [10:29] meco: tried F11? [10:29] for opera, not for screenshot [10:29] ak5: wait [10:30] It's not the F11 thing. The browser menu bars are in place, but the Ubuntu top and bottom menu bars are hidden [10:30] retry thx for your time i will search to see what is and then i will come back [10:30] ak5: what repos are selected there [10:30] meco your panels are hidden or have been turned off [10:30] Argh... now it works like it's supposed to, but usually it doesn't [10:30] main, chromium daily, winehq, medibuntu [10:31] rumpsy: ^ [10:31] i just used the update manager.....i got a message debconf on root confiuring grub-pc i got choices keep the local version currently installed,install the package maintainer's version show the differences between the versions show a side by side difference between the versions show a 3 way difference between available versions, do a 3-way merge between available versions, start a new shell to eamine the situation......which one will i choose?

Pm if u feel like helping a bit :) [10:31] pat|nG, have you made any personal mods to grub-pc? [10:31] nope [10:32] how do I check if my RAM is messed up? [10:32] if not, you can probably just install the package maintainer's version [10:32] if you don't mind, uncheck everything except main [10:32] kolby: insert live cd and use memtest [10:32] but if you want to pastebin the diff Ill take a look at it [10:32] ak5: ^ [10:32] ak5: And give a reload [10:32] ak5: any programs I could use? [10:32] ak5: my laptop's keyboard is inoprable. [10:32] what programme can i use to access my hotmail account?? [10:32] kolby, reboot and at grub menu choose memtest [10:33] then let it go for like...hours [10:33] until it finishes a bunch of tests [10:33] chances are a keyboard prob is not RAM [10:33] hi, I´m completely new to ubuntu and I'm trying to make it work.

Not sure it's X though [10:34] so hard to help people with startup issues [10:34] retry: So true. [10:34] sorry, whats X?

[10:36] i see [10:36] when you upgrade, it wont automatically remove the old kernel [10:36] it's a precaution [10:36] in case the new kernel doesn't boot. [10:36] yes Daughain [10:36] I always keep two kernels on my machines [10:36] retry: If it doesn't and one removes it, won't the update manager install it back? >_< [10:36] JackStone: How did you instal ubutntu? [10:36] no matter what [10:36] retry: Xwindow, no "s" ;) [10:36] erUSUL: how do i know that i got the right one to remove?

[10:37] retry: Excuse me, where? What's "autoremovable"? o_O [10:37] ak5: no [10:37] pat|nG: make sure you have the package "linux-image" installed [10:37] llutz, it's always been X to me really [10:37] JackStone: That sounds fine to me. So... when Ubuntu was in the live session, did you see the desktop and stuff? [10:37] JackStone: The netbook have a SSD or HD? [10:38] theadmin, in synaptic [10:38] yes, but, I installed full version, and now, nothing happens after boot [10:38] retry: Ah, synaptic, that huge monster >.< always tried to use apt-get or aptitude over it [10:38] ak5: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys KEY [10:38] JackStone: It sounds like install didn't go well [10:39] sorry Daughhain, actually I don't know what SSD is =S [10:39] I generally use apt-get unless I want to do some searches or clean up [10:39] theAdmin: SYnaptic has its uses.=) [10:39] Daughain: Yeah I know :D [10:39] synaptic is nice for helping you find residual configs and what not [10:39] I dont really like aptitude at all...I know that's unpopular...so is preferring nano to vi [10:39] hola [10:39] theAdmin: not even live session was launching, it had issues, I don't even know how did I manage to make it work [10:39] synaptics is not that huge, it's just a frontend for apt === moe is now known as Guest13725 [10:40] yeah I'm a fan of dropping to a term most of the time, but I still like synaptic [10:40] JackStone: So... wait, you installed from a USB?

[11:37] that will probably take out 80% of kde [11:37] that's what i did before bro [11:37] sudo apt-get --purge remove kdelibs4c2a kdelibs5-data <---so only this right? no need to intall [11:37] correct [11:37] you already have gnome [11:38] right?

Xubuntu moans about "Low Graphics mode" and the DRI failed to initalize. Is this because of a recent update? [11:50] and I would love an opinion if possible please [11:51] Daughain, in terminal tried if wlan0 up [11:51] kwtm, :! I guess [11:51] drellok: Thanks. [11:51] hi, everybody knows a linux tool that shows country flag right near input box? [11:51] indus: That give me an error of 'unbknwn wlan0 ignored' [11:51] !ask | NIIcK [11:51] NIIcK: 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. :-) [11:52] Daughain, i mean type iwconfig in terminal first [11:52] drellok: Thanks, it worked. [11:52] alright bed time...nn === kruzenbek is now known as Guest9885 [11:52] anyone have any ideas on allowing authentication with a windows 7 shared printer via samba? [11:52] is it netbook edition better for notebooks than standard ubuntu? [11:52] indus: 'Access point: Not associated". [11:53] pietia, what netbook? [11:53] I have 2 network cards (one for the actual connection and the other one for my IP class). I have configured the server to allow ipv4 forwarding. the issue is that I can't access youtube. [11:53] pietia: it's a personal preference issue. I know many people that don't use the netbook edition but the normal one. [11:53] sol1tude, notebook:) thinpad r61 [11:53] if i connect the windows box directly it does open [11:53] if i connect it with ubuntu as gw i get this error: [11:53] pietia, if you have small screen and NOT gma500 accelerator than yes. it is better [11:54] Myrtti, sol1tude i wonder if it will be better to use ubuntu or kubuntu on my laptop [11:54] pietia: again, it's a personal preference thing. [11:54] Daughain, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-206492.html [11:54] pietia, better isn't really a good way to put it. It's preference. [11:54] Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player [11:54] NIIcK: what's up? Need some help? [11:54] pietia, it is all as you wish :) someone loves gnome someone kde. start with gnome (ubuntu) [11:54] yes please [11:55] NIIcK: What's the problem? [11:55] SpaceGhostC2C: I have 2 network cards (one for the actual connection and the other one for my IP class). I have configured the server to allow ipv4 forwarding. the issue is that I can't access youtube. [11:55] sol1tude, hm :) so ubuntu + manually installed kde is something better kubuntu ? [11:55] pietia, if you are concerned about resources used with gnome or kde...you could also use xfce or even lxde [11:55] SpaceGhostC2C: if i connect the windows box directly it does open if i connect it with ubuntu as gw i get this error: [11:55] SpaceGhostC2C: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player [11:56] indus: No clue what any of that said, but wifi worked fine until I removed a fea packages yesterday. [11:56] fea=few [11:56] Daughain, what packages [11:56] pietia, it is equal [11:56] can anyone tell me what is the file size of the ubuntu 9.10 in 32-bit and 64? [11:56] pietia: I would suggest installing ubuntu normally and if you don't like that, you can easily move to kubuntu or lubuntu or xubuntu. [11:56] retry: Not going to get into an editor flamewar. I switched to vi because nano has no command for "copy from cursor to next blank line then paste it 3 times before the line that says '/* Section 12 ends here */'" which in vi would be "y}/12 e[Enter]3P" [11:56] indus: At this point, I dont remember, sadly....I slept since then. [11:56] pat|nG, iso size? for download? 690 mb [11:57] So NIIcK, you have one windows box getting internet and serving it out to a subnetwork on another nic? [11:57] indus: I've reinstalled gnome and kde desktops, but that hasnt helped aything either. [11:57] i download ubuntu 9.10 before and i got 651mb...i'm not sure if it's complete or not [11:57] pietia, because of intel atom im using crunchbang - ubuntu with openbox [11:57] SpaceGhostC2C, i really like kde apps but i know that gnome applets (wifi) are much better than knetworokmanager and i think older ubuntu releases was more polished than kubuntu :( [11:57] pat|nG, hmm its not [11:57] Daughain, you need to go step by step [11:58] !wireless [11:58] Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [11:58] !wireless | Daughain [11:58] Daughain: please see above [11:58] See what above? [11:58] Ah. [11:58] pietia, you do know you can use kde apps in gnome as well as vice versa. They might be a bit slower in their non-native desktop environments, but they work. for instance, I'm using lxde with ubuntu's applets in my panel. [11:58] Daughain, what is your network card [11:59] NIIcK: is that correct? the machine you get internet from is windows, and you're serving it out to a subnetwork of machines on the other network card? [12:00] hey guys how do you compress multiple files with bzip2? [12:00] Daughain, reconfigure wireless with network manager [12:01] Daughain, what is the terminal output of lspci [12:01] netwirk manager hasnt been doing anything. [12:01] SpaceGhostC2C: I have 1 IP from my ISP and a class of IPs routed through it [12:01] Maleko: try man bzip2 [12:02] NIIcK: What is the os of the computer that is getting internet directly? [12:02] SpaceGhostC2C: Windows 7 [12:02] indus: lspci doesnt list a wireless controller. [12:02] Daughain, let me see it [12:02] SpaceGhostC2C: I have 2 NICs on the linux box [12:02] Daughain: Are you sure? Can you put the output of lspci into a pastebin? What sort of wireless card do you have? [12:03] Working on pastebinning it now. [12:03] NIIcK: so you get internet into your linux box, and you want to serve it to the windows machine? [12:04] http://pastebin.ca/1767877 [12:04] brb, coffee. [12:05] Daughain: it seems it cannot detect your wireless nic. What is your wireless cards make and manufacturer? [12:05] its a realtek [12:05] I'm on xubuntu and i'm wondering is there any way to "repair" my install? it's just things are crashing (firefox has again) and I get weird error messages on shutdown [12:05] indus: did he give you any more information? [12:05] SpaceGhostC2C, no [12:06] indus: hmmm, let's see if we can get more info on the card. [12:06] Hawkal: did you ask in #xubuntu? [12:06] SpaceGhostC2C: example: My ISP routted my class /28 though one ip 5.6.7.8/24. I have assigned to one NIC 5.6.7.8/24 and to the other 1.2.3.4/28 [12:06] Hawkal: have you pasted the messages to a pastebin so we can look things over for you? [12:06] SpaceGhostC2C: and configured the linux box to allow ipv4_forward [12:06] SpaceGhostC2C: Ya, I kinda noticed that.=) WHy I am here seeking help.=) [12:07] SpaceGhostC2C: then assigned 10.11.12.13/28 to windows 7 with gw 1.2.3.4/28 [12:07] SpaceGhostC2C, man doesnt say anything about compressing multiple files into a single bzip2 archive [12:07] indus: Any ideaS? [12:07] NIIcK: you aren't answering my question about your setup. What machines are where in the setup? [12:07] Daughain, is the laptop wireless button glowing [12:07] sudo apt-get install wine? is this correct? [12:08] spaceGhostC2C I thought it was all part of the same channel. I never copied the error message because it was just a generic message from what I can remember [12:08] Maleko: yes it does. look at -z [12:08] indus: No, hssnt been since yesterday. [12:08] Daughain, ok [12:08] so while dicking around with samba and file permission, I somehow removed myself from the sudo list [12:08] Daughain: so you don't know what sort of wireless nic you have? What is this on? A laptop or desktop system? [12:08] SpaceGhostC2C: ubuntu server 9.10 has the 2 NICs, Windows 7 has as GW an IP assigned in ubuntu [12:08] Daughain, then you need to read that wireless link [12:09] SpaceGhostC2C; ubuntu is the router [12:09] Daughain, no other option [12:09] Hi! If I've updated the boot-up rules under /etc/udev/rules.d, how do I get changes to take effect? Do I reboot or what? [12:09] Hawkal: so, can you paste a pastebin of the errors? [12:09] unless someone else says otherwise [12:09] SpaceGhostC2C: Gateway laptop, should be realtek wifi card, if I remember.... [12:09] SpaceGhostC2C: lol..i know the -z switch but it compresses files individually when you specify multiple input [12:09] sudo apt-get install wine? is this correct? [12:09] NIIcK: so you have ubuntu getting the internet connection right? [12:09] sol1tude, are you happy with crunchbang? [12:09] pat|nG, yea [12:09] pat|nG: yes. If it doesn't work try this command. [12:09] SpaceGhostC2C: thats correct [12:09] pat|nG: sudo apt-cache search wine [12:09] hello every body can any body on this network can provide me an link which is having full explanations for fmask and dmask value-- details ... please reply [12:09] OK, tie to reinstall, I guess. [12:09] you should update aptitude first though [12:10] Applications > Accessories > Tilda > Tilda 0 Config > General > Font > Position of Tabs: (Top/'Bottom/Left/Right). I cannot see a "tab". How can I make visible a 'tab'? [12:10] pietia, yes. Im very happe. now it is my favourite OS. I was on ubuntu kubuntu and debian. [12:10] Maleko: why not tar up the files then compress that with bunzip2 [12:10] hello, i managed to share my internet connection from my Ubuntu machine to a XP laptop. All is working fine, the only problem is that the speed is limited to a max of 220 KBps from my laptop, even if i copy smth from the www or LAN. any ideas ? might be the switch (hardware) causing dificulties ? [12:10] bullgard: try CTRL+Shift+T [12:10] sol1tude, hm. openbox integrates well with kde-based apps ? [12:10] sol1tude, does it offer something like kicker? [12:10] pietia, i have VLC. it is perfect with openbox [12:11] SpaceGhostC2C: the ubuntu server is getting the internet connection then allows the other computers (running windows 7) to connect to the internet through it. the issue is that it blocks youtube [12:11] SpaceGhostC2C I didn't note them down and they do not appear at every shutdown. Also firefox crashes without any error messages or warnings [12:11] ok, yea I can't get around this at all [12:11] pietia, you mean panel ? [12:11] hello every body can any body on this network can provide me an link which is having full explanations for fmask and dmask value-- details ... please reply [12:11] hi I have a problem using my scanner. I just gets an errormessage when I try to start Xsane [12:11] SpaceGhostC2C: if i connect any windows 7 box to the internet directly i can open the youtube site [12:11] NIIcK: okay, so you have a internet connection right? Did you set up masquerade? [12:11] hello, i managed to share my internet connection from my Ubuntu machine to a XP laptop. All is working fine, the only problem is that the speed is limited to a max of 220 KBps from my laptop, even if i copy smth from the www or LAN. any ideas ? might be the switch (hardware) causing dificulties ? [12:12] Why does wine recommend mstcorefonts? By default, ubuntu installs this recommended package though this package has impact outside the wine environment. This is ugly. [12:12] how can I add myself back into sudoers if I can't use sudo in the first place? [12:12] pietia, it has tint2 panel - very customisable with text configuration file [12:12] NIIcK: so you can reach the internet from inside the subnet? [12:12] SpaceGhostC2C: That works! -- Thank you. -- And how can I change the focus from one tab to another one? [12:13] NIIcK: Like, you can get to google from insdide, just not youtube? [12:13] pietia, gnome network-manager applet :) [12:13] SpaceGhostC2C: i don't need masquerade as i have a class assigned to me. this class is directly routed through the internet IP by my ISP [12:13] hello every body can any body on this network can provide me an link which is having full explanations for fmask and dmask value-- details ... please reply [12:13] SpaceGhostC2C: i don't need masquerade as i have a class assigned to me. this class is directly routed through the internet IP by my ISP [12:13] pietia, yes it has a very good dock. tin2 panel for openbox. it is already installed [12:13] SpaceGhostC2C: i'm getting on the internet with one of the class IPs not thorugh the internet IP [12:13] :/join opensource.COM [12:13] sol1tude, nice :) crunchang is configured (gnome-net-manager ) ? [12:13] :/join opensource.com [12:14] pietia, everything works out of the box. you just tune it (chose theme etc..). also crunchbang have livecd so you can try it without installation :) [12:14] the error dialogbox It says that it 'could no open snapscan:libusb:001:004' bad argument. any ideas what I can do to make it work? [12:14] i accidentaly installed lts 8.04.3 desktop, but i want server. removing the desktop is convertig it completely, right? [12:14] SpaceGhostC2C: I found out: Ctrl+PgDwn or Ctrl+PgUp. [12:15] sol1tude, what is the diff between standard/lite ver? [12:15] I'd prefer it if wine would instead recommend a package that does not affect the rest of the system. Besides I'm not sure if I have a Microsoft OS License lying around, am I allowed to install corefonts? [12:15] pietia, sol1tude: this is the ubuntu support channel, if you don't have ubuntu support issues, could you take this discussion elsewhere? [12:15] pietia, in standard there are more applications. all them usable :) [12:16] indus: Thanks, I think..... [12:16] Myrtti, but it is ubuntu modification [12:16] Hola Amigos [12:16] sol1tude: which we do not support [12:16] Myrtti, of course. sorry [12:16] I'm sorry everyone, I got sorta dc'd. === traveller_ is now known as traveller === firaaq is now known as s4h [12:19] Hi. I need to add a second video output to my xorg.conf. Does anyone have an idea of a basic configuration of a video projector I can add? [12:20] Hey Guys, how would I start an application like VLC in daemon mode from a SSH session? [12:20] Legendario: what is your video card's manufacturer? [12:20] o/ [12:21] Jamn: do you know how to start it from the command line, locally? [12:21] can someone tell me if 8100 frames every 5 sec is a decent frame rate for my ATI 9000 card? [12:21] Nope, also not [12:21] +J 2,5 ? [12:22] Currently I'm starting remotely using Putty but as soon as I exit the putty session the VLC instance also closes [12:22] what is that for? [12:22] this is the problem... Its an intel GMA500 [12:22] I've discovered the screen function in SSH but it still doesn't work to my liking [12:22] indus: How do I configure my wireless card? [12:22] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8731907#post8731907 [12:22] I would like to see now if it will work better if I run it in daemon mode (if it's possible) [12:23] Jamn: I think you should try this. vlc -d . You can also use nohup in front of the command. [12:23] Jamn: you should probably look at the nohup command to disconnect process form the terminal [12:23] jozefk: http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml [12:23] nohup keeps teh process running even after a user logs out. [12:23] jozefk: join throttling [12:23] thanks [12:23] If I run it in daemon mode will it then continue running after I exit the SSH session? [12:23] Legendario: what video drivers are you using? [12:24] Jamn: just try ;-) [12:24] Jamn: try using nohup in front of the command you use to start vlc in daemon mode. [12:24] Jamn: nohup vlc -d [12:24] please forgive the repeat: Is 8100 frames per 5 sec a decent frame rate for my ati 9000 card? [12:25] Coachj: did you look at the vendor's site to see if that is correct? [12:25] it`s a custom driver from ubuntu-mobile ppa: poulsbo [12:25] Legendario: one second then, let me look this up a bit. [12:25] SpaceGhostC2C: no [12:26] Coachj: do that and also google the question, then come back here if you don't find anything. I'll help you after that. [12:26] otherwise it doest configure the standard resolution [12:26] ok [12:26] ok [12:26] whats a cli tool to scan for avalible essids [12:26] sabgenton, iwlist scan [12:27] :) [12:27] ah thats the one [12:27] i love this channel :) [12:27] sabgenton, with root of course [12:27] been awhile [12:27] sabgenton: iwlist wlan0 scan [12:27] sol1tude: not as root, do it with sudo or sudo -i [12:27] giorno a tutti [12:27] sol1tude: thx [12:28] really u need root [12:28] SpaceGhostC2C, yes, I meant it [12:28] hm [12:28] ηελλο [12:28] hello [12:28] i love this channel too :) [12:28] sabgenton: yes, to access the hardware you do. run sudo iwlist scan or sudo iwlist wlan0 scan [12:28] :)) [12:29] all issues are actually something very simple not a real issues [12:29] Legendario: have you attempted using a configuration tool like nvidia-settings?

[12:31] heh, how to disable user crontab sending mail? [12:31] jozefk: what are you talking about? You're sort of blabbering. Do you need some help? [12:31] superboki: look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto [12:31] no i don't need help. I'm here to help others, how about you? [12:31] SpaceGhostC2C: just read that [12:32] superboki: Make sure crontab command doesn't generate text to stdout. Or you can add "> /dev/null" to the commands. [12:32] kwtm: ok, thanks [12:32] jozefk: no, just wanted you to know this channel isn't for chat really. There is a #ubuntu-offtopic channel you can talk in about anything. [12:33] ok. i'll joint that as well. thanks. [12:33] superboki: have you looked into removing the lines you need from cron? [12:33] superboki: crontab -e [12:33] SpaceGhostC2C: THat link you gave doesn't even answer superboki's question. [12:34] i don`t believe it will work, first because my card is intel and second because I need a generic projector configuration... I know its hard... [12:34] kwtm: it takes a bit more interpretation. He wants to remove an offending line from cron. So he should enter crontab -e and remove the line. [12:34] heya, i'm getting some weirdo wine error when starting Wow. err:winediag:X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo Direct rendering is disabled, most likely your OpenGL drivers haven't been installed correctly [12:34] SpaceGhostC2C: on jaunty logging was on system logs [12:34] it is most likely related to me having a x86_64 system and missing the 32 bit libs, but i cannot find them in the repos [12:34] kwtm: it wasn't quite a straight answer, but a answer to help him find it. [12:35] hexagon-: do you have your video drivers installed? [12:35] hexagon-: glxinfo | less [12:35] i have crontab set up on a server to run a perl script at a certain time, the perl script has output, bu crontab keeps mailing me with this output although its an insignificant warning.. any ideas? [12:36] superboki: what exactly are you wanting to do? [12:36] SpaceGhostC2C: Whoa. Doesn't "crontab -e" launch vi or something? He'd be even more lost. Besides, he doesn't need to... oh, youre' kidding me. [12:36] Hi all. [12:36] Newky: Wow, did you coordinate with superboki to ask the same question at the same time? [12:37] kwtm: what are you saying exactly? crontab -e launches his default editor with the cron config files. [12:37] Newky: Here's the answer again: anything send to stdout will get emailed. So make sure your commands don't send to stdout, by adding "> /dev/null" or something [12:37] kwtm: no :) ive jus logged in ... did he ask the same question, ive tried to put my output to /dev/null bu it wont work [12:37] SpaceGhostC2C: ... anyway, I don't think he was trying to get rid of the program, just to make sure it doesn't mail the stdout. [12:38] hi there! [12:38] ke pasaaa [12:38] ke pasaaaa [12:38] Newky: Oh! Then send the stderr to /dev/null as well, using "2> /dev/null".

[12:39] First excuse me for my bad english. On the linuxmint french forum, we have a user experiencing problems with the intel graphic driver (Intel GMA 4500MHD). The screen of his laptop is always black. If he plug an external screen, this one works. I found a bug report about this problem and some people tells that you can add Option "FramebufferCompression" "off" in xorg.conf. But there is no more xorg.conf file. How can we add this opt [12:39] ion to the intel module without xorg.conf ? [12:40] SpaceGhostC2C, using radeon driver [12:40] superboki: In addition to ">/dev/null", also try "2>/dev/null". The "2>" will pipe the error messages. [12:40] good evening everybody.

[12:42] entonces como kieres [12:42] Ok I'm going to go since I wasn't able to get the help I needed here. [12:42] entonces como kieres? [12:42] yes, i'd like to, i never did it actually :) [12:43] peke: can you speak English? If not, you should go to #ubuntu-es. Which is a waste of my time typing out if you can't. :P [12:43] kwtm: i think i will leave the errors to get through [12:43] asta luego [12:43] is changing the default search engine of firefox binaries permitted by the firefox license? [12:43] SpaceGhostC2C, any clue? [12:43] hexagon-: looking it up now. [12:43] thanks [12:44] superboki: You can pipe them to a log file, as in "2>> /home/superboki/cron_error_log". That appends to the file. Be careful when specifying relative filenames (for example, the "~" in "~/logfile" does not work) [12:44] hexagon-: can you run glxgears ? [12:44] yes, I can even play World of Goo :) [12:44] hexagon-: What video card do you have? [12:44] Mobility Radeon x1400 [12:44] M54 Chipset [12:45] errr. ok..... where can I ask? :) [12:45] linux distro is challenging.....then...never used my brain this tough....lol! i can't help myself from laughing...hahahaha...... [12:45] hexagon-: if you want to pm me, I have set up WoW with wine multiple times. [12:45] pat|nG: do you need help? [12:45] SpaceGhostC2C, yeah well it is rather a graphics adapter issue, i have no problems with nvidia either :) [12:45] kwtm: ok, so 'command >/dev/null 2>>/absolute/log.txt' ? [12:46] for now i'm good...later..hehe..need to tour my ubuntu stuffs......hehe...loving it so much....and i don't have time to answer my gf's calls..hahaha....shhhh [12:46] hehehe [12:47] superboki: Yes, that's pretty much it. In fact, what I do is append everything (so "command >>/absolute/usual_log.txt 2>>/absolute/error_log.txt") and then have another cron job delete the log daily/weekly/whatever, so you can look at output but it doesn't grow indefinitely [12:47] kwtm: another cron with something like 'tail' ? [12:47] is it ok to ask question with regards to desktop themes? or should i ask on #gnome? [12:48] rah: your question is probably better answered on the mailing lists and blogs discussing the matter than this channel === cp is now known as Guest72707 [12:48] Myrtti: why is that? [12:49] rah: because this is the support channel for ubuntu usage problems, and license issues *may* be a bit out of the scope. #ubuntu-devel might have more discussion, though [12:49] pat|nG: I don't mind, but this is a support channel really.

[12:53] thanks in advance [12:53] No idea for either lol [12:53] Tried ctrl+alt+delete? [12:53] xD [12:53] j/k [12:53] Riverthief: don't do that here. [12:54] Don't do what?

[12:54] Riverthief: when helping, be helpful [12:54] Hmm, ok then [12:54] pat|nG: you find setting for the dock to allow some sort of hidding, with gnome-do docky you have several options, for example: autohide, intellihide, ect === rtgz is now known as rtg|away|z [12:54] NIIcK: disable that script [12:54] Anyway, any minecraft players here?

[12:55] I wanna go to the data segment, now whos' coming with me? [12:55] No, it's cross compatible [12:55] Mainly for windows and OSX though [12:55] Riverthief: can you give me a link? [12:55] Hi there:I think have a file system problem. Running Ubuntu 9.1 installed in three partitions : 1) / (root) 2) /home 3) swap . Since yesterday my root partition got full without install any additional software (25 GB). The increase of the size depend of the following folders /usr ( 9.1 GB) and /var (2.1). How I can solve this problem? What could be the cause of this problem? Thanks [12:55] http://www.worldofminecraft.com/ [12:55] daan [12:55] Great game === emperor15 is now known as mk5joiuninb [12:56] It's coded in Java, and tested fully on Arch, Ubuntu and Mint [12:56] daan [12:57] gotta go. thanks [12:57] can i do a printscreen? where can i upload the printscreen file? i want u to check this....pls? [12:57] I would like to have windows running in my ubuntu... any one knows a virtual machine for ubuntu? [12:58] raul_, VirtualBox [12:58] raul_, Xen/KVM [12:58] raul_, Use virtalbox [12:58] vmware [12:58] raul_: open source one lacks USB support, other one has it http://www.virtualbox.org [12:58] vmware is non free [12:58] So, there you go, Xen, KVM, virtalbox, vmware heh! [12:58] pat|nG post a printscreen @ picpaste.com [12:58] Riverthief: i think the player is free....vmware player [12:58] Riverthief: VMware player and server are free as in price, the others are paid for [12:58] OerHeks, Use imgur.com [12:59] Aah, ok [12:59] raul_: there are lots of ways you can do it. You want to run a virtual machine? You can use vmware or virtualbox, those are both good. Virtualbox is FOSS and vmware can be free, but not OSS [12:59] only kvm is worth to try [12:59] mrqbuster: kvm needs hardware virtaulization and such most computers don't have that [12:59] I just reset my root password using Grub and all. I was wondering, how easy it was to break into the root account. Isn't it a security hole? [12:59] imgus.com is free too, nice link becomingGuru [12:59] imgur.com is awesome [12:59] smik, if you have physical access, all bets are off [12:59] hi everyone. im on ubuntu 9.04, and i need to use a flash system. but when i go right click on the flash applet, and choose configuration, or when it prompts for permission to use camera and microfone i cant click on the flash conf box [13:00] smik, breaking into a computer with physical access is a cakewalk [13:00] smik: if you reset your root password, you just opened it up a bit. By default there is no root password at all. The best way you could've secured the computer is by setting a password to grub recovery mode [13:00] I've found "VirtualBox OSE" in repositories... is that good? [13:00] raul_: it lacks USB support [13:00] raul_: ,but if you don't want that, well then sure [13:00] raul_, not free and doesn't do good hardware passthrough [13:01] raul_: if you want it, get the other version [13:01] its just unclickable [13:01] sebsebseb: so... it is much better I download it from its website? [13:01] nowonmai: raul_ open source one is free as in freedom and price. their other version isn't as in freedom, but price yes === Riverthief is now known as Riverthief_afk_f [13:01] Myrtti: Riverthief nowonmai I think that is it: if you have physical access, your computer can be cracked. Which is in a way nice, it saved me from loosing data and stuff today. [13:01] dtcrshar This happens with some web apps . The problem is not Ubuntu or your computer, it is web design [13:02] raul_: well maybe not much better, but yes the USB feature for example if you get non OSE version === ara_ is now known as ara [13:02] smik: but setting a root password is just begging for trouble in Ubuntu [13:03] anyone here connected Ekiga with there company's SIP Server? Sins I have ubuntu 9.10 it fails to connect [13:03] sebsebseb: I found the VBoxGTK. should I install both Virtual Box OSE and VBoxGTK? [13:03] Myrtti: Why do you think so? [13:03] Hi all ! [13:03] smik: Setting a root password is "The Big No Of Ubuntu" and it's not really needed since sudo [13:03] How do i regain control over my terminal after writing suspend -f?? [13:04] studentz, use du -h --max-depth=1 to drill down and find what file(s) are responsible [13:04] smik: because everything works without it. it is a password that an intruder can try hacking by force and repeated attempts. [13:04] http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_4.png kindly check this one....my sysmonitor screenlet is cut....anyone how to fix it? [13:04] But then (if my root passwd is not set), any user can loginto root and change my password. [13:05] Anybody in here using ekiga or other working sip client to connect our company's sip server? [13:05] smik: as I told you, if you set your grub to ask password for recovery mode when booting, then no, they can't [13:05] nowonmai thanks [13:05] xukun, I use 'twinkle' - crap name, great client [13:05] smik: also, sudo powers aren't assigned to every user you create, but to the first only, by default, unless he then gives the permissions to others [13:05] pat|nG: is that konky? [13:05] Myrtti: cracking being more exact, but of course hacking works, in that context to get the message across :) [13:05] konky? [13:05] nowonmai, ok thanks I will try that [13:05] sebsebseb: yeah, typing too fast to think [13:06] pat|nG: conky [13:06] i got cairo-dock and that screenlet [13:06] NIIcK: seriously, STOP IT [13:06] LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype <-- anyway to use this command without having to enter each time in a terminal and have a terminal open while program is running? [13:06] Myrtti: excuses :D heh (I guess) :) [13:06] pat|nG: aha, nm [13:06] xguru, Yes , use ALT+F2 ;) [13:06] superboki: any solution? [13:07] Moise: yea i get that it drops the terminal then, but how about creating it in a launcher? [13:07] pat|nG: i have all bad experience with different screenlets [13:07] (if you are using gnome, and creating a shortcut) [13:07] so u mean u didn't used any screenlets? === Riverthief_afk_f is now known as Riverthief [13:07] xguru, Just right click on the desktop and select create a launcher.

[13:09] In a terminal, type "whereis skype" [13:09] pat|nG: my current desktop is similar to this http://kravca.mu/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/docky64c.png [13:10] smik: letters and numbers in your password at least, and ideally a few other characters [13:10] smik: then it should be quite secue [13:10] secure [13:10] xguru, If launcher continues make you crazy, create script which launch skype ;) [13:10] xguru, Personaly, I have a ~/.scripts directory where is store this kind of little things.

[13:17] Zyxon: oh? where? [13:18] pietia: 9.10 might be a good one to just clean install for the two reasons I just mentioned, but also since many people got issues after upgrading from 9.04, useually upgrades go fine though [13:18] pieta: do you need help? [13:19] pietia: or just stay on 9.04 for now if you want, 9.10 offers little proper advantage. Then I suggest clean installing 10.04 when that comes out the next release.

[14:24] lenswipe: look up reverse ssh tunnel [14:25] hateball: i can run webmin over 443 and access that from college but if i change my router settings and try ssh over 443 it just dies [14:25] onetinsoldier: it should be, I haven't changed the set up in ages [14:25] phox__: your router might have a tool for using no-ip, or you could use an updater program [14:25] KaffeeJunky123: hmmm, i don't know what's wrong. sorry [14:25] phox_ not really mate. Use dyndns or no-ip to get a hostname that will point to your ip [14:25] lenswipe: Well is your openssh server accepting connections on port 443? [14:25] lenswipe: ssh is port 22 [14:25] onetinsoldier: but every alt gr keycombination doesn't work :/ [14:25] tyrosine: i know [14:25] hateball: yeah openssh is fine [14:25] SpaceGhostC2C: Right. [14:25] phox__: inadyn or noip2 [14:25] Moise, thanks my problem is critical [14:25] phox_: install ddclient and use dyndns. [14:25] onetinsoldier: I'm using a g15 keyboard btw [14:25] if i go down to the technitians' machines which arent NATed then i can get in fire, its just on the rest of them [14:26] myrtti: i have noip2.. But im not sure i have started it right now, mayby i should.. [14:26] they're definately blocking port 22 [14:26] and por 21 [14:26] port* [14:26] its retarded i know, but thats the way it is [14:26] :( [14:26] lenswipe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:26] and the SSH protocol [14:26] lenswipe: I make ssh run on 2222 becaue my university blocks 22 as well [14:26] lenswipe: well if you're forwarding port 443 to it... you have to config /etc/ssd/sshd_config to accept on that port too [14:26] lenswipe: then set up your ssh server to use a higher port and then connect on that [14:26] which would take less time? using dd to copy a 80gb harddisk to a 160gb, or just re-install? [14:27] KaffeeJunky123: roger. and this keyboard has worked fine in linux for a while? then quite working all of a sudden? [14:27] Kartagis: depends, is there anything you need to keep on the current install? [14:27] KaffeeJunky123: quit* [14:27] onetinsoldier: yes it worked fine until today === sacho_ is now known as Sacho [14:27] SpaceGhostC2C, oh, now I remember. all my .conf files [14:27] SpaceGhostC2C, dns and dhdpd [14:27] KaffeeJunky123: roger. what have you done today that might hav affected it? installed or upgraded anything? [14:27] SpaceGhostC2C: i cant, 8080 is open, 443 is open, 80 is open and 8000 is open and thats it as far as i can tell [14:28] onetinsoldier: no I haven't installed anything, but I'm not sure if there was an update yesterday [14:28] lenswipe, pick one if you known open ports ;) [14:28] onetinsoldier: I guess there's a log for updates, do you know where that is? [14:28] lenswipe: if you can't open ports on your linux server's side, then use the ones you can. [14:28] Moise: ive said it before, the SSH connection dies on those ports [14:28] i know how to open ports on my end [14:28] that works its just when i use SSH on port 443 from college [14:29] lenswipe: why can't you open a port on your linux server and then set up a reverse ssh tunnel? [14:29] if i use SSH on port 443 from my freind' s house it works fine [14:29] I have installed dynamips by using apt-get, but I couldn't find startup script for it. How could I get know about which files was installed with that package? [14:29] KaffeeJunky123: roger. i don't know what's wrong. i'd keep asking the channel. make sure you descibe the problem in detail all on one line, and also note that you have a g15 keyboard [14:29] lenswipe: why do you have to use 443? [14:29] SpaceGhostC2C, if I use dd, it is a high risk to bloat the OS because of CPU change, right? [14:29] hello I have a problem installing aircrack can u help me http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d64ae5ae6 (openssl is installed) [14:29] SpaceGhostC2C: i guess i dont, im just using it as an example [14:29] lenswipe, it means than other ports are watched and designed at firewall side to only allow HTTP traffic. [14:29] Kartagis: I don't think so. [14:29] Moise: exactly [14:29] lenswipe, Yes why don't use use 443 ? [14:30] onetinsoldier: well thanks anyways, I'll just try a systemrestart for now [14:30] lenswipe: so you can only get outgoing traffic on those ports? [14:30] SpaceGhostC2C: more or less, and only HTTP at that [14:30] KaffeeJunky123: ok, good luck. aptitude keeps a log. it's in /var/log/aptitude [14:30] hello I have a problem installing aircrack can u help me http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d64ae5ae6 (openssl is installed) [14:30] KaffeeJunky123: don't know if synatpic keeps a log, or apt-get [14:30] lenswipe: install something like webmin if you want. I can't think of how to get around it, unless you can use a reverse ssh tunnel. [14:30] SpaceGhostC2C, if I use dd, will the bootable flag set by fdisk be also copied? [14:31] KaffeeJunky123: don't know if synaptic* keeps a log, or apt-get [14:31] SpaceGhostC2C: i have webmin [14:31] SpaceGhostC2C: i have usermin too [14:31] webmin sucks [14:31] darkcoredreamer: and why haven't you installed the version in Ubuntu? [14:31] effrafax: what would you suggest in an environment that blocks everything but HTTP? [14:31] Kartagis: If it doesn't, just set it manually. [14:31] onetinsoldier, apt-get does keep a log afaik [14:31] Anybody know of a nice screen/audio capture tool? [14:31] i have webmin: 443, usermin: 8000 [14:31] effrafax: agreed, but he is in need. [14:31] can you access usermin on 8000? [14:31] lenswipe: didn't know that constraint :) [14:31] lenswipe, You are telling that traffic at port 443 has to be HTTP traffic? [14:32] SpaceGhostC2C: yeah [14:32] hola [14:32] so they allow it. I'm lost. [14:32] lenswipe: run openvpn on port 443 [14:32] Myrtti > I french please explain? I don't understand [14:32] Kartagis: roger. good to know. thanks! [14:32] Moise: i tunnel SSH over 443 and it dies, so i cna only assume that [14:32] [14:32] Hello! How can I check if a device file is really tied to a device? (like does /dev/sda really exist?) I need to wait for the USB device to settle and be configured, and then mount it [14:32] effrafax: HTTP traffic only on all ports :( [14:32] ¿ Quién hay ? [14:32] darkcoredreamer: you do not need to compile it yourself. you can install it from the package management, like synaptic or aptitude. [14:32] lenswipe, strange behavior... The firewall has nothing to with it then.... [14:32] lenswipe: how can they possibly tell http traffic from other on https?

[14:33] effrafax: idk, but aparently they can tell HTTP from SSH because SSH dies when i send it voer 443 [14:33] lenswipe, OR, it recognize SSH traffic and drop it ... really vicious :p [14:33] MTecknology: pst, crossposting :-< [14:33] I've a dual core cpu with VT extensions, what's the best (easiest) way to virtualize a windows machine? kvm, xen or virtualbox? :) I know is a question of on milion of dollars but I feel lost :) [14:33] onetinsoldier: well the last time I've installed something was the 23rd january, so that can't be the reason for my problem [14:33] Myrtti: sorry- thanks :) [14:33] KaffeeJunky123: roger [14:34] Moise: probably, but either way, its very annoying because i need SSH access, say Apache crashes or whatever i need to be able to reboot it [14:34] lenswipe: have you tried using those ports for other sorts of protocols? [14:34] SpaceGhostC2C: like what? [14:34] ¿hay alguien que hable español? [14:34] lenswipe: where is this that is blocking everything?

[14:37] lenswipe: try openvpn running on 443, it will probably look different to ssh traffic [14:38] effrafax: yeah, i have smoothwall as my router and it comes with a GUI for openVPN but im awful at knowing how to configure it [14:38] laughzilla: with other programs you can save text fine? [14:38] lenswipe: i used to work for the nhs and had to run openvpn on telnet port to get round there stric firewall policies :) [14:38] laughzilla, The more safest thing you can do is backing up your data and change your HDD ;) [14:38] lenswipe, i do not think so , a lot of important applications have been using unix or linux as the server, such as the database of google and baidu [14:38] This is what Im getting while installing apache2. -> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m44e5806f [14:38] allo je voudrait converser avec client msn [14:38] lenswipe: openvpn is easy to configure, have a look on openvpn.org, it';ll take about 5 mins readint to work out :) [14:38] ola [14:38] !fr | marc__ [14:38] marc__: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement.

[14:43] Riverthief: then please run it yourself and let us know. [14:43] onetinsoldier: well maybe the g15daemon was dead and I didn't notice, that could cause trouble too [14:43] So I thought I'd ask [14:43] there is a machine on which I've done RAID-massive. the type of raid 5. controller promise fasttrack sx6000. while installing ubuntu server 8.04.3 at the end of the installation the installing of grub doesn't occur. there are two mistakes in console : unable to set title for fdisc-udeb [14:43] configuring "grub-installer_faild with error code 1 [14:43] KaffeeJunky123: roger [14:43] llutz, anything I can do for this? [14:43] Riverthief: Then please do ask what it does, and not what does it do if you type something in. [14:44] well how am I supposed to know it's bad and not allowed here without asking? [14:44] snwbrdr: if it is a fake raid, you wont be able to boot from raid5 [14:44] rah: your point being though? We do not know the thoughts of Dell sales/support rep [14:44] Effrafax and ouyes, thank you so much; you answered my question clearly and quickly. Bye! [14:44] jcarroll, I suggest that you make a fresh installation ,because the to upgrade to 9.10 will download a lot of data and cost you a lot of time [14:44] nibbler: no, it's not fake raid, it hardware raid controller. [14:45] Riverthief: where did you read it? or it just poped in your head? [14:45] Jeez, I get now that it's bad, but hell, someone asked me to type it, and I wanted to know if it was safe. That's all. [14:45] stanix2: promise controlelrs aren't true hardware raid normally [14:45] No, someone on the Malvager IRC network told me to type it in [14:45] Riverthief: well, for one don't ask people to put in for you. Just ask it to be explained. [14:45] snwbrdr: what controller exactly [14:45] ok [14:45] Riverthief: then ask him what it does [14:45] hey all. 'strywgr' is getting a segfault when trying to run 'sudo apt-get -f install'!! any ideas? [14:45] Riverthief: Also ask him and google. [14:45] Riverthief: next time you arent sure about a command, mebbe paste it into google and see what google has to say? :p === cjohnston is now known as FFEMTcJ [14:46] onetinsoldier: what other info does he get? [14:46] Yea, he just kept saying "just type it" [14:46] nibbler: promise fasttrack sx6000 === FFEMTcJ is now known as cjohnston [14:46] Riverthief: well that would be a danger flag. [14:46] Myrtti: I wasn't asking you what the thoughts of Dell sales/support rep are [14:46] snwbrdr: that's not hardware raid [14:46] Riverthief, it looks like a forkbomb [14:46] Yes. So I asked here. Going in a loop here [14:46] Riverthief: telling you the command to remove your whole filesystem and demanding you do it over and over, just don't do it. [14:47] It removes the whole filesystem? [14:47] SpaceGhostC2C: that fork bomb doesnt remove your whole filesystem does it?

I am new to all this and I have no clue [14:50] ouyes: that is suboptimal = sucks [14:51] ikonia: no, SuperTrack is hardware controller [14:51] JimmyJ|zz: tell him he has a choice between the 192.168.x.x range and the 10.x.x.x range [14:51] ouyes: sucks means isn't good or reeks of fail. [14:52] snwbrdr: it doesn't appear to have native raid support in linux, so it would have to be software or fake raid [14:52] JimmyJ|zz: but to talk from one range to the other, you will need to use a gateway/router [14:52] How do install my network in Kubuntu. KPPP can't find modem. I can see my LAN is connected and I'm not able to dial my connection [14:52] ak5, SpaceGhostC2C , ive got that , il look up in a dictionary [14:52] UK-DO: what type of modem ? [14:53] ouyes: I would do that. ouyes, do you need any help? [14:53] I don't know bout that it's some kinda device at my ISPs I have PPP broadband [14:53] Jimi_Neutral: tell him he has a choice between the 192.168.x.x range and the 10.x.x.x range [14:53] ikonia: http://www.promise.com/marketing/datasheet/file/STSX6000DS_4.pdf [14:53] Hello, I have installed Karmic on a flashdrive. At went well until I invoked the Update Manager. Now, on boot an endless error about: Bug in some application using the D-Buss Library. I suspect I have to re-install and all is lost.

[14:54] ADSL I guess [14:54] SpaceGhostC2C, il do it my self, the dictionary is not installed on my ubuntu so il look up the word after a while [14:54] snwbrdr: looks like fake raid dm support [14:54] what the hell is canonical thinking switching the default search engine to yahoo???? [14:54] erSUL: i really don [14:55] nowonmai, he doesnt want to use the private, he wants to use 10. **** to 10. **** [14:55] can anyone help me get ts3 working ? [14:55] FabioTheApe: money. this isn't really an ubuntu support question though. [14:55] http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_4.png <---- anyone pls help me to full my sysmonitor screenlet? seems it is cut due to cairo-dock? [14:55] Jimi_Neutral: 10.x.x.x is another private range, it's just bigger [14:55] Hello? [14:55] erSUL: i really dont know what kind of device my ISP has. I have ethernet network adapter on my end. [14:55] nowonmai, ok so how do i change the range now that i set it up in the enterprise install of ubuntu [14:56] I'm looking for a tool that would let me query Apache logs directly (rather than having to first import them into a DB) Anybody have some guidance? [14:56] that is evil... [14:56] Is there any easy way to revert a page on wiki.ubuntu.com to an older version? [14:56] Jimi_Neutral: is the rest of your network on the 192.168.x.x range? [14:56] FabioTheApe: Surprising as it may seem, Canonical have to make a profit. Letting the default search engine be yahoo isn't a horrible way of accomplishing this when you consider that anyone is free to switch back. [14:56] pat|nG: looks like a bug in cairo-dock [14:56] hello i have a problem for some reason i can watch any vids on youtube i have adobe installed but still can't watch i'm noob can anyone help please 9.10 [14:56] FabioTheApe: feel free to think so. You may want to discussing it elsewhere though, perhaps with Debolaz. May I suggest #ubuntu-offtopic for a start? [14:56] rbellamy: grep [14:56] nowonmai, no its on 10. [14:56] UK-DO: and where is the etherenet cable cable connected to in your house? ne end to your pc and the other end to? [14:56] MTecknology: oh. heh [14:56] yeah but it is just one more thing I will have to do Debolaz to get my system working like i want [14:57] ikonia: what do you mean "DM"(direct memory), i'm from russia, could u explain more easily [14:57] Jimi_Neutral: did you use a LAMP distribution or just install a LAMP stack on top of Ubuntu? [14:57] I can't ssh my ubuntu hardy server after it is idle for about an hour... how can i disable all power management from command line [14:57] MTecknology: thanks.... I knew that. Now I'm stoopid [14:57] MTecknology: i tried transparency but it seems can't change at all.....any options? [14:57] erSUL: other end is probbly some kinda networking switch or hub or so on. I have no idea everything is wired I don't know rest.

It didn't work with Kubuntu 8.10 and 9.10 [14:59] UK-DO: probably a cable modem. [14:59] where does grub 2 have its menu list?

[15:01] ACDCkid: update-grub [15:01] cisco: did you run this? sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [15:02] really thats it? [15:02] SpaceGhostC2C: Well, sure, but that's not very helpful! How can I tell ubuntu to use less power? [15:02] ikonia: When i'm installing the linux, system defines the raid like one disk 150Gb [15:02] Jimi_Neutral: unsure why the server IP would decide to be 192.168.x.x if the rest of your n/w is in 10.x.x.x [15:02] cisco: also restart firefox [15:02] no not yet [15:02] ACDCkid: that should detect the windows installation and setup the menu [15:02] tamale: that's where your learning begins :) [15:02] cisco: run those then come back [15:02] remoteCTRL1: They are processed in numerical order of what's in /etc/grub.d [15:02] cisco: run that command and restart firefox [15:02] SpaceGhostC2C: Indeed, and I've come here because I'm out of things to try. [15:02] Jimi_Neutral: what IP did you tell it to use when doing the Ubuntu install? It should really be static and not DHCP for a server [15:02] ok im on the live cd now. so just type it in the terminal? [15:02] ok thank u [15:02] remoteCTRL1, you can edit the grub menu by editing the file /boot/grub/grub.cfg [15:03] hgi guys....I have a HTC hero which, when plugged into Ubuntu had a label of SDB1. However, since wiping my phone I can no longer get it to mount, despite it being recognised through LSUSB. Can anyone help get it mounted? [15:03] tamale: is this a netbook or a full-blown laptop?

Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [15:13] olof, sudo geidt /boot/grub/grub.cfg [15:13] olof, this is for 9.10 [15:13] ouyes: you mean for grub2. [15:14] ouyes: read what the second line of grub.cfg says [15:14] ikonia, all questions are subjective. Meh. I'm asking for other peoples reasons for switching with the chance that they may have a reason I'd agree with - like if the repos were more out of date than ubuntus. :P [15:14] ouyes: i paste it ---> # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE [15:14] SpaceGhostC2C, i do not know the difference , i make the suggestion all by my experience [15:14] t0rc: maybe you could ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [15:15] erUSUL: i need help what do i change then [15:15] ouyes: well you can compile and install grub2 in any linux distro as long as it satisfies dependencies. same for all programs. [15:15] olof: the page i linked to you has all the info [15:15] erUSUL, what are you talking about? [15:16] olof: basically /etc/default/grub and the files in /etc/grub.d/ [15:16] t0rc: arch works different than packaging in ubuntu so that's not really something you can compare, I guess the key reason is if you want to maintain your own system fully and have a smaller developer base look at arch, if you trust the ubuntu developers to package best for you in terms of support and compatability use ubuntu [15:16] t0rc: all linux distros are pretty much the same apart from personalisation, thats why it's down to you to try them out and see what you like [15:17] t0rc: to me the real difference is the package manager, nothing else. [15:18] SpaceGhostC2C, id rather like that we just boot into ubuntu ,i do not know why we need grub since the ubuntu is the only OS in my lap [15:18] system going down for reboot now! thnxxx [15:18] olof: more details in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [15:18] ouyes: well, we need grub for a number of reasons. Just not dual booting :) [15:18] ouyes: all OS's need a boot loader linux uses grub windows uses ntldr [15:18] when i configure my ethernet via system->administration->network tools-> configure it responds with "the interface does not exist, check that is correctly typed and the it is correctly supported by your system".

Yes sir/ma'am [15:22] peko: if both are linux systems just add the apropiate lines to /etc/hosts [15:22] erUSUL: you mean, no nameserver that accepts me?

[15:24] ikonia, It was a blatant example. Karmic has pushed me to seek other distros.

Our banter has become dull though, I concur.

Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [15:35] eza, no you can not , but you can use the unetbootin to make a usb installation [15:36] eza: It would be hard just with the ISO on there. You would most likely need to do is to unpack the ISO and set up a boot process to start the install. Booting from HDDs is a tad different than CDs and USB sticks. [15:36] the problem is I'm using apache to serve a Zen Cart distro and I'm trying to change the website title but it's staying as it was??? There is no override and I have grep'd the title and nothing shows so I donk't know where it's being pulled from. Any help would be appreciated... Greatly [15:36] ok thanks [15:36] i do have an old 8.04 cd, i usually don't like to upgrade though [15:36] Emanon: yeah, that would be correct, if you wanted to boot from it later... I'm at a bit of a loss... there's no record of any current issues like this... are you using Xen or KVM? What Ubuntu version? [15:36] i just don't have access to blank cds or dvds [15:37] eza: do you have a usb drive?

[15:37] nowonmai: 64 bit ubuntu if that is an issue [15:37] eza: What you can do is to boot the Ubuntu CD (9.04), mount the external hdd, mount the ISO image as a loop back on the external drive and then attempt to start the installer. [15:37] eza: how about a usb stick? [15:37] hi, trivial question: where can i set default init at boot? [15:38] Emanon: hmmm... me too... I don't have a hdd to hand to try it on at the moment... if I think of anything I'll PM [15:38] thanks nowonmai [15:38] Emanon: you could always create it as an img and then dd it to the hdd :) [15:38] pat|nG: ~/.config [15:39] nowonmai: well i can just install it nativly but i want to be able to virtualize it AND boot into it [15:39] nowonmai: so i dont have to have two full installs [15:39] nowonmai: i mean i have 2.5tb but still no need to waste space right? [15:40] Emanon: indeed... leave it with me... I'll see if anything springs to mind [15:40] nowonmai: it works in virtualbox but i want to do a 64 bit install and vb can only handle 32 [15:40] Emanon: vbox can also handle 64bit [15:41] Emanon: just use vt-x [15:41] what is the -alternate- torrent?

It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [15:41] well its also quite a bit slower than kvm if i dont remember [15:42] right it can be run ON 64 bit systems but can it have 64 bit guests? [15:42] Emanon: yes [15:42] thanks [15:42] Emanon: but your cpu must support it [15:42] hi [15:42] Emanon: for intel cpus, its called vt-x, for amd-cpus i dont know [15:42] somebody is using google gadgets un ubuntu ? [15:42] amd phenom x4 64 bit and yea it supports it [15:42] on gnome desktop ? [15:43] amd-v [15:43] i just didnt think vbox could handle 64 bit guests [15:43] Tricks: are working on localhost ? [15:43] hi [15:43] hi, do you know If I really need portmap in client side to access nfs server? [15:43] and isnt vbox like 20% slower than kvm? [15:43] how can i change the transparency of the side bar ? [15:43] not like thats an issue for the occasional virtualization [15:43] it is dark grey now [15:43] hi, where can i set default init to boot in? [15:43] Emanon: vbox is another technologie then kvm [15:43] without transparency [15:43] Emanon: if i am correct, kvm is something like XEN [15:44] iceroot: right its an actuall virtualization program as opposed to kvm which is a kernel plugin [15:44] iceroot: somewhat, yes. [15:44] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek Day 3 starting in #ubuntu-classroom (on irc.freenode.net) in 16 minutes [15:44] KrisKo: you mean runlevel? [15:44] i found that ext4 file system did not have a good support for copy a lot of small size files [15:44] kvm (if im not mistaken) allows a guest machine shared access to the hardware resources so it can run almost natively but somewhat subserviently to the "host" system [15:45] i found that ext4 file system did not have a good support for copying a lot of small size files [15:45] cool ouyes [15:45] Emanon: sounds like XEN with a hypervisor [15:45] iceroot: yea kind of [15:45] iceroot: yes [15:45] Emanon, cool what ? what is cool? [15:46] ouyes: pastbin an example please [15:46] Emanon: i like vbox more then xen, because i dont need the extra performance and i dont like to fight with xen-kernels [15:46] nothing really ouyes just being a smart@$$ cause you posted twice pardon my manners [15:46] iceroot: but you don't get hardware acceleration... [15:46] SpaceGhostC2C: you get it for cpu but not for io (hdd, cd and so on) [15:46] iceroot: well kvm is just an extention in the existing kernel not a new one [15:47] studentz, i am just making a copy of a lot of small size files, the speed is 900kb/s at last [15:47] SpaceGhostC2C: vbox can handle hardware virtualization of the cpu [15:47] and the performance loss in vbox isnt extreme its like 60% native i think [15:47] iceroot: can you play world of warcraft as well on virtualox as xen? [15:47] heya [15:47] kvm is like 80% native if i remember the benchmarking report i read [15:47] SpaceGhostC2C: yes, vbox can hanlde 3d card virtualisation in version 3.x [15:47] iceroot: my only real reason for having anything windows around. [15:48] ouyes: local or remote? [15:48] Emanon, smart@$$ ? what is it ? i make a grammar mistake so i rephrase [15:48] i just wish graphics cards could be accessed directly and shared with virtualization but oh well [15:48] is it possible to have folder specific thumbnail sizes? [15:49] ouyes: i was saying i was being sarcastic because of a minor faux pas on your part no issue [15:49] studentz, from a ext4 external hd to a local ntfs partition, is this local? [15:49] ouyes: what is your native language? [15:51] Emanon, sorry here is the ubuntu channel , please ask questions related to ubuntu, and id be happy to help, and my native language is one of the most speaking language in the world [15:51] ouyes: yep . I'm no sure the transfer rate of NTFS but it could be the neck-bottle. Something else to study. god luck [15:51] like, is it possible to alter thumbnail sizes for certain folders in nautilus. ie, having large thumbnails in photo folder and small thumbnails in document folders? [15:51] studentz, i am quite sure about what i said [15:52] so can i burn .iso on dvd cause i dot have cd? [15:52] isn't there a way to change what program apt/dpkg uses to fetch files? [15:52] are there any special ubuntu comunity tools? programms or programm modifications for easyr launchpad or learning or managing? [15:52] lysek, yes [15:52] how do I get ubuntu to stop using network-manager and only use the old debian stuff? [15:52] studentz, but it is very fast to copy large size files( over 19mb/s even up 27mb/s) [15:52] any idea anyone? [15:52] lysek, you can burn the .iso file onto a dvd (it still beeing a file! then) [15:52] many programs can handle .iso these days [15:53] goldins: all the interfaces that appear in /etc/network/interfaces are ignored by NM [15:53] studentz, and the large file > 1kb small size<1KB [15:53] goldins, what do you mean by "old debian stuff " [15:53] erUSUL: hot. thanks. [15:53] i don't think by default trayzz but it might be relativly simple to write a nautilus extention [15:53] smerz: i cant do that, it must be booted [15:53] BluesKaj: /etc/network/interfaces [15:53] studentz, so it is efficient [15:53] smerz: by bios [15:53] yes , i use it ...just remove nm [15:53] can I just update-rc.d remove it? [15:54] or should I remove the package or what [15:54] are there any special ubuntu comunity tools? programms or programm modifications for easyr launchpad or learning or managing? [15:54] lysek, hmm then i really dont know. it should be possible i suppose but i wouldn't know how. maybe your burn program just accepts a CD as the burning medium? did you try?

[16:18] err are YOU 32 or 64 herropipple [16:18] capable of 32, at this point do not know which ubuntu i dl'd and installed, but thinking 64 [16:18] not sure though [16:18] SpaceGhostC2C, yes, i could. but a regular, every-day, normal user could not or would not want to. i think, we need another approach... thanks anyway [16:18] it wouldnt have installed if it was 64 on a 32 [16:19] how do i copy a word from a link??????????????????/ [16:19] it will tell you it is unable to install and cite incompatible architecture [16:19] hporter: i got the link, but still if any one here who uses CLI rss reader [16:19] herropipple: To find out which one it is, open a terminal and type in: sudo lshw | grep width [16:19] you can install 32 on a 64 but that doesnt usuall pose a problem [16:19] nah [16:19] oskar_: I found hamachi insanely easy. [16:19] flare: im on vista now [16:19] i run 32 on 64 arch fine [16:19] herropipple: can't help ya then [16:20] well if your on a computer that can only handle 32 bit then your on 32 bit herropipple [16:20] otherwise it won't install [16:20] 'uname -m' will show whether you have x86_64 installed or not [16:20] might try running the hardware driver utility if you can see to get to it [16:21] noren: i used few but only with gui [16:21] Emanon: aka jockey-gtk [16:21] in regards to simply downloading a new ubuntu, if i dl the new ubuntu (i am not on 9.10) and i go through the reinstall, will it notice that it is a dual boot and install only over the ubuntu portion? or will i have to partition manually? (i killed htis very computer twice trying that) [16:21] hellooo [16:21] do i have to add ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa in the apt box ? [16:21] i have a rhythmbox question?

See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. [16:21] you can tell it in the install to use the existing partitions [16:22] unless you tell it otherwise it will probably overwrite the mbr (but since you already have ubuntu installed no problem there) [16:22] emanon: if i tell it to use existing partitions (remember that from the previous installs), will it leave my dual boot intact? im using grub bootloader. my main concern is losing windows, as its the only o/s working atm [16:22] there's a problem in rhythmbox where certain mp3s - the entire album of alice in chains' black gives way to blue, to be specific - don't let me skip songs, the song that was playing will stay playing but the song i skipped to will show as being played. sometimes the skipped to song will even start playing while the prior one continues to play.

[17:46] jakiw: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 [17:46] nevermind, it was my virtual machine not updating [17:46] jakiw: try netstat -pna | grep 80 [17:46] y, still gives that error. how do i find what is blocking port 80? [17:46] cisco- unless somebody knows better, I have problems with the advanced features of IM under third party software, whether it's empathy or trillian or whatever.. It may be easier to just use tokbox [17:46] jakiw: it should show what's listening on :::80 [17:47] when i installed ubuntu i checked the box that said encrypt my home directory, how can i find out what type of encryption its useing and is there a way to change it? im useing ubuntu 9.10 [17:47] hi!! Problem with grub2 [17:47] tokbox?? [17:47] !ask | chiiiiiz [17:47] chiiiiiz: 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. :-) [17:47] anyone can help? How can I ask grub2 to detect my other partition [17:47] Hi Out_Cold [17:47] !us | chiiiiiz [17:47] tokbox is web based so you won't need to install or configure anything (assuming your webcam and sound work) you get a link you can send to others, to invite them into the webcam chat I've had like 8 people chatting together that way [17:48] cisco: does the webcam work at all? [17:48] ops sorry! [17:48] hey! [17:48] chiiiiiz- what's on it? grub finds everything from Win 7 to DOS, for me... === nowonmai is now known as nowonmai_away [17:48] yes it does it's a built in webcam [17:48] maybe you just need to reinstall grub ? [17:49] I tried to copy what is written in the older grub.cfg file, but it does not worK. Either I have a "you must load the kernel first" error message, or "unknown command initrd" [17:49] chiiiiiz: its not that easy, you need to configure it to do a chain boot load [17:49] chiiiiiz you can add other partition to /etc/grub.d/40_custom [17:49] how can I reinstall grub2? [17:49] but what OS is on that partition that grub didn't pick up automagically? [17:49] another Ubuntu. [17:49] nowonmai still didnt, understand. how do i find what is using port 80? [17:49] !grub2 > chiiiiiz [17:49] chiiiiiz, please see my private message [17:50] chiiiiiz then run update-grub2 [17:50] chiiiz- run a livedisk, and tell it sudo grub-install /dev/Xda [17:50] I installzed Karmic first (grub2), and I install 64Studio (hardy and grub). [17:50] there's probably other ways but for a non techie like me, hey it works.. [17:50] and the second install was on the MBR, so grub replaced grub2... [17:51] can you migrate a home directory from an Ubuntu system to a Fedora system by just copying over the contents? (the account being migrated will have the same username and uid on both systems). GNOME is used on both accounts... will the Ubuntu's GNOME settings in ~/.gnome*, ~/.gconf*, etc. conflict with that of Fedora's? [17:51] I updated to grub2, but only the second 64Studio partition is listed, not the Karmic [17:51] Out_Cold: yea it works with tcp did some reading up [17:51] update-grub2 did not find it... [17:51] rip- sounds reasonable.. why not just back up important stuff and give it a shot ? [17:51] I am hopeless [17:52] question, the default LAMP installation comes with sqlite support? [17:52] chiiiiiz: ok [17:52] so is tokbox the only way to webcam?? [17:52] chiiiiiz- no just do a reinstall "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" or whatever [17:52] high [17:52] chiiiiiz: apparantly, because of the way Ubuntu does Grub 2, you can't actsually dual boot or triple boot or quad or whatever, with another Linux distribution [17:52] cisco- no I just look for the easiest way to do what I need to do, and that works for me.. I'm sure there's a more permanent solution for you, I was trying to give you something that can have you webcamming in 5 min, that's all [17:53] wich is the safest way to upgrade from haryd to karmic on a console, without update-manager [17:53] matsebc: LAMP by definition uses MySQL by default [17:53] DonaldShimoda: your on hardy? [17:53] so, the best would be to chainload... but how can I install grub2 on the OS bootsectors... if I can not boot it first... [17:53] matsebc: but I'm sure you can make php and apache use sqlite as well [17:53] sebsebseb, yes [17:53] really? the new grub won't multi boot with another linux ? whose bright idea was THAT ? [17:53] ok, I'll research on how to install pdo_sqlite [17:53] thanks [17:53] chiiiiz- you do it with a livedisk [17:53] DonaldShimoda: can't do it, 64Studio only works with LTS distros [17:54] DonaldShimoda: ok might as well stay on that then, since at the end of April comes out the next LTS, which you can then directly upgrade to, probably no Grub 2 on upgrade though, but that's not needed, and you won't get Ext4 on upgrade, but again not needed [17:54] oh ok thank you [17:54] ZykoticK9: http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/99396abce7.png [17:54] grub2 can boot any partition even iso files [17:54] chiiiiiz, ubuntu studio? what are you talking about? [17:54] I've used ubuntu studio.. it's pretty nice [17:54] DonaldShimoda: no, 64studio 3 beta... Ubuntustudio does not recognize my soundcard [17:54] chiiiiiz: as far as I know Ubuntu Studio works fine on both 32bit and 64bit, and Karmic or Hardy [17:55] chiiiiiz, i was no talking to you [17:55] Out_Cold: i also read port 111 is used for port mapping such as with nfs [17:55] in the meantime, I can't access my files... [17:55] ZykoticK9: http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/99396abce7.png you see that? [17:55] ooopsss.. sorry [17:55] sebsebseb, i need to update now, do you know how? [17:55] DonaldShimoda: why do you want to upgrade now? what's wrong with Hardy? [17:55] razertek, yes.. and i have that set. but it's the firewall that i am having troubles with... how do i wrap iptable rules around dynamic ports?? [17:56] sebsebseb, im asking for your opinion? LOL. Just need to upgrade now man, can you help or dont? Please dont give me advices... [17:56] Hello ppl. When I use sudo pppoeconf in Kubuntu it says nothing found; no modem found But when I start windows PPPoE is there and it's working. How am I gonna update without net :( [17:56] Out_Cold: what firewall? is it policy based? [17:56] DonaldShimoda: if you try and upgrade to 9.10 now well. you should be able to upgrade no problem to 9.04 through 8.10, but then that 9.04 to 9.10 upgrade might mess up on you, resulting in you having a good reason to clean install [17:57] DonaldShimoda: and if you wait untill the next LTS, you can upgrade directly to it instead of going through other versions first [17:57] sebsebseb, why? im upgrading without clean install from versions 7.xx [17:57] onetinsoldier, right now there is no firewall because i can't figure out how to wrap with dynamic ports. but yes it's iptables policy rules that i am trying to set [17:57] DonaldShimoda: if you've got 7.xx, it's easier to do a fresh install [17:57] sebsebseb, great, but i need to upgrade rigth now... maybe i dont tell it before [17:57] :P [17:58] i installed bugzilla3 package with apt-get, but where is bugzilla now? [17:58] DonaldShimoda: why, because loads of people had issues after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10, useually upgrades go fine though [17:58] Myrtti, is easiest when you are ON THE LOCATION. Im upgrading a machine on the other side of the earth.... [17:58] DonaldShimoda: why should it be harder? [17:58] mmm, I just chmoded /var/www so I could copy a website there, did I mess something up? [17:58] hey guys, can anybody give me some time for help on xbmc??? [17:59] Hi, is it possible to make a bootable Win7 usb if I have the Win7 iso? I'm on Ubuntu of course... [17:59] nowonmai still didnt, understand. how do i find what is using port 80? [17:59] since trying to access index.php ask me to download the file [17:59] SpaceGhostC2C, to do a clean install? explain how to do a clean install to a machine without people around... [17:59] Out_Cold: roger. i just thought i'd suggest what i think is an incredible firewall app, 'fwbuilder'. but don't use the karmic version(3.05). get 3.07 if you want to check it out. the Lucid version. it installs right into karmic just fine [17:59] DonaldShimoda: don't upgrade untill the next LTS then [17:59] sayres561, that link isn't opening for me [17:59] DonaldShimoda: if you don't have psyical access to the machine [17:59] hi everyone [18:00] sebsebseb, again, you dont know the reasons, so just stop giving any advice, pls, is pedantic [18:00] DonaldShimoda: well If you have a working linux I'd create a iso of ubuntu that has a script to enable ssh access upon boot, then make sure the system uses grub2 and boot the iso. [18:00] can anyone help me [18:00] in ubuntu 9.10 [18:00] sayres561, it opened -- that's the crontab page - you can add your entries there [18:00] Then you can ssh in and use xforwarding or start vnc. [18:00] sebsebseb, i dont asking you for recomendations, just ask for the way to do it [18:00] DonaldShimoda: I already told you how to do it as well [18:00] SpaceGhostC2C, harder and confuse [18:00] when does ubuntu 10.04 alpha 3 scheduled to come out?

I am booting the Ubuntu live stick but the only drive showing up in the installer is my USB stick! Why isn't it showing /dev/sda? ALso if I fdisk /dev/sda it shows it just fine [22:57] Out_Cold: just trying to boot unr so i can find out what the exact package its after is called [22:57] Santisnight: my guess is you removed metacity and/or compiz [22:57] but I can't know without a more detailed explanation of what you did [22:58] bobmanuk, you are trying to use a live usb?

[22:58] mathrick, can i get that back just from the software center or sympnacs or whatever it's called? :P [22:58] Out_Cold: i used a live usb to install yes, it worked fine when i initially ran from the usb, but now it doesnt work [22:58] Santisnight: you should be able to, yes [22:59] any one could tell me what im doing wrong or what im not doing? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3dbd1040 [22:59] but normally the system wouldn't let you remove them [22:59] mathrick, yes, i was uninstalling whatever i didn't use or whatever i couldn't seem to find / operate. [22:59] sorry wrong channel [22:59] Santisnight: through synaptic? You shouldn't be able to do that [22:59] i uninstalled through the software center. [22:59] Santisnight: did you have desktop effects enabled before you did that? [22:59] no [23:00] okay, then see if package metacity is installed [23:00] Out_Cold: i tried to mount the usb and force apt to see it as a repository to hopefully let me use the drivers, but theyre already installed on the system, just not allowed to activate [23:00] Marcel__, clonezilla, but make sure (if you dont backup / (root) ) to amend your fstsb [23:00] wANd, are you talking about the partitioning option during install?

[23:01] BRB [23:01] bobmanuk, ok well then i assume the driver is on the usb and you are just lacking a way to enable... maybe we can force the driver with modprobe. one sec while i look around [23:01] Marcel__, yes [23:01] or just copy data? === root is now known as Guest51894 === Guest51894 is now known as Boom [23:02] duffydack: And it stores also permissions, links and so on?

[23:03] Marcel__, if you are confident enough you could just boot to recovery mode, type 'cd' to make sure you are in home folder and do cp -av . /somewhere-else, umount the partition, format it, amend fstab to reflect changes, and mount it, and cp everything back [23:03] bobmanuk, i'm checking here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1368699 and here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1368946 [23:03] Marcel__, its a complete backup solution...so, yes, everything.....mbr, partition table etc [23:04] Marcel__, what filesystem are you gonna format to ?

[23:09] wANd, try exiting the partitioner and try again? [23:09] thanks for trying :( [23:09] Marcel__, tar it up then... IIRC, sudo tar czvpf /home.tar.gz .

[23:12] I am working on restoring data from a corrupt XP hard drive. At this time, I have tried booting a live cd but fdisk cannot mount the drive. I suspect that the motherboard does not recognize the harddrive because sudo fdisk -l reveals nothing at all. Now...about this harddrive...there might be something physically wrong here. The drive spins up BUT most of the time, the MOBO does not recognize it. On the off chance that the MOBO does recognize [23:12] it, the drive tries to boot but after about 20 seconds restarts the computer. Cany takers? [23:13] Out_Cold: wow... thanks, it now works, just a reinstall of the same packages works a treat [23:13] Does the latest karmic kernel have all the bluetooth support built in? I just did sudo modprobe bluetooth and got module not found, thinking I may need to recompile the kernel [23:13] Checkmate91: try putting the HDD in a freezer for 5 mins. Then try again [23:13] Out_Cold: thing is ive been trying this with kubuntu and unr for days... yet its only just worked straight out of the gates :) [23:13] what else but file size does the ls -l command list? there are two integers at each file/directory name... [23:13] thank you [23:13] idyle: its recognizing bt on my laptop [23:14] K0d3g3ar: Thought about doing that but the thing does spin up even when it doesnt boot [23:14] bobmanuk, i assume that it didn't install because it didn't know??? but the packages were on the usb which worked live?? [23:14] bobmanuk, good to see it working now though [23:14] Checkmate91: ok ... dumb question... you have a backup,right? [23:14] K0d3g3ar: I dont...but it's not my drive and if I cannot get this data back...it's gone [23:15] Checkmate91: then you have a problem, dude. Have you tried Spinwrite on it? [23:15] K0d3g3ar: never heard of it [23:15] hi, i'm trying to capture some screen in the background while i'm on other things, i'm trying to do it with recordmydesktop but i couldn't find the option [23:16] Checkmate91: its a really good HDD recovery tool from Steve Gibson. www.grc.com I think [23:16] Out_Cold: yeah but i did aptitude search dkms and bcmwl (both seperately of course) [23:16] Out_Cold: and they were installed, after asking the command line to reinstall it, it did so and same issue [23:16] K0d3g3ar: looking at it now but to install it, the HDD needs to boot, right? [23:16] Out_Cold: but anyway, ta very much [23:16] ttfn all [23:17] Checkmate91: No, its a Live CD type boot disk. Just as long as the HDD is connected somewhere in the chain it should find it [23:17] I am having issues with permissions in ubuntu, apache, and php. Where is the best place to ask for help with my problem? [23:17] K0d3g3ar: do you think that the sometimes booting sometimes not recognized by the MOBO is a physical problem or a sector problem? [23:17] drunkenangel: depends where the problem is [23:17] drunkenangel, start here then see [23:18] Checkmate91: I've heard of problems like that being failures in the logic boards on the HDD controller. Sometimes you can find the same drive, and swap out the logic board on it and it will work [23:18] K0d3g3ar: UGH, this is gonna be a challenge. Will Spinwrite erase data? [23:19] Checkmate91: No, I've never had it do that to me [23:19] Alright so, I installed apache2 and I added a folder to the /var/www directory the files in the directory are used by php and html pages that are stored in the /var/www directory, I can see the pages but not of the files that I have in the directory I added to the www folder are showing [23:19] !default [23:19] To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. [23:19] K0d3g3ar: Think a demo version would do the trick or do you use the full? [23:19] drunkenangel: make sure all content is owned by Apache. chown -R apache.apache * [23:19] !alias [23:20] Checkmate91: I didn't tell you this, but there are hundreds of copies of Spinrite on bittorrent [23:20] how to i invoke a script containing sudo commands in rc.local? [23:20] The error I am getting is permission denied to the file that is trying to be used, So I have done chown -r /www-data:www-data /var/www/direcotry [23:20] Then chmod -R 755 /var/www/directory [23:20] drunkenangel: no, it needs to be owned by Apache if that is what you are using to serve it [23:20] K0d3g3ar: lol, ok. So if it's sectors I am dealing with, it's a possible solution [23:20] Apache creates its own user account & group on installation [23:21] hey folks, i am hoping you can help me with something ..... my shortcut seems to have been mapped to something ... only i dont know what that something is .... is there a way to figure out/clear what that is mapped to? (just pressing the combination seems to do nothing) [23:21] When I checked the page same problem, I thought www-data is the defualt user for apache [23:21] K0d3g3ar: and assuming this is the issue, does that explain what fdisk does not see it out there? [23:21] Checkmate91: Yes, its a total solution if its just about bad data on sectors. This will go down to the bit level to try and recreate the data there so you can use the drive [23:22] Checkmate91: If you can't recognize it, it might be that the partition table is toast. But Spinrite should be able to recover any recognizeable data for you [23:22] hi all [23:22] two questions: [23:23] K0d3g3ar: can a bootable windows xp CD do the same thing? [23:23] drunkenangel: I have about 14 CentOS servers running Apache, and all of them have apache as the user account. I can't speak for all distros but that was my understanding with RedHat/CentOS [23:23] 1) Why does Ubuntu 9.10 sucks so badly? [23:23] 2) How do I change lumminece level from the console ? [23:23] sivang: coz your a noob? [23:23] Having a problem with setting up Hal rules for my Targus mouse. The mouse by default is inverted for some reason.

[23:24] I'm trying to get the headers of a standard hardy 8.04 amd64 for vmware but linux-headers-2.6.24-19-server is nowhere to be found [23:24] mneptok: ah, I see [23:24] anyone ever heard of "frostwire", www.frostwire.com, and would you recommend it as virus/rootkit/whatever free?

[23:26] drunkenangel: I'm actually right now compiling apache & php for my 9.10 laptop from source. I'll check the user account stuff as soon as its finished downloading the dependencies [23:27] and have bought me a very good place in the work market. [23:27] ^^^ [23:27] Anyone around that can help with an inverted mouse problem? [23:27] * sivang takes back his words from before [23:27] and if I was more hardworking, I would fix the bugs instead of trolling about them :) [23:27] k0d3g3ar: ^^ [23:27] ;) [23:29] greetings may i have some help please - ubuntu login window is not showing up on sys---admin--- [23:29] how do i acquire it?

Fingers crossed [23:30] steve, i got it === mEEE is now known as mNeW [23:30] Checkmate91: I'd still run Spinrite on it. Even in maintenance mode it should be able to protect you from any bad sectors coming up later [23:30] if you are the same steve form last night [23:31] Anyone could tell me the command to create a new user on linux? [23:31] K0d3g3ar: ok...i appreciate the help [23:31] Boom: sudo adduser newusername [23:31] steven__, [23:31] Checkmate91: np [23:31] ok I figured it out [23:31] drunkenangel: what was it? [23:31] I just did the entire /var/www folder instead of just the folder I wanted permission changed [23:31] please, is there any way i can stick gtk recordmydesktop to a window so i can put it in the background and still record it? [23:32] drunkenangel: Yep, that would do it. Just make sure its secure from those you don't want in there of course [23:32] any way to get banshee 1.5.3 now? was just released today [23:32] so anybody knows why OSD controls stop to work after a resume on 9.10 ? [23:32] bcurtiswx: compile it [23:32] and is it safe already to dist-upgrade to the RC ?

[23:33] bcurtiswx: you're using linux but don't know how to compile something? [23:33] bcurtiswx: How? With a compiler..... ./configure, make, make install, etc. [23:33] use the git repository?

[23:34] iceroot: oh darn, no RC yet [23:35] iceroot: I'm helusinating :) [23:35] iceroot: but it is a basic thing that is very useful to know how to do [23:35] blakkheim: but not needed [23:35] How do I get sound to work on an Ubuntu Minimal install? [23:35] iceroot: but if you want to use software the day its released, you'd need to compile it. If you are not that 'bleeding edge', sure no compiling required [23:35] bcurtiswx: before trying to compile something, you'll want to make sure you have the 'build-essential' package installed ;-) [23:36] iceroot: not if you lived in a closed ecosystem or your repository has everything you want [23:36] k0d3g3ar: backports, deb from the website, binary from the website.... no need for gcc and so o [23:37] iceroot: I've never been able to 'use' a Linux distro without being able to compile stuff. But then my needs may be different to others.... [23:37] k0d3g3ar: then use ubuntu and not gentoo :) but this is getting offtopic [23:37] when possible, using 'checkinstall' is good for compiling from source :) [23:37] iceroot: didn't know this forum had a 'topic' [23:37] ty [23:37] forgotten how to force a package when dependencies are missing with apt-get, anyone?

[23:38] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [23:38] doufer: Have you tried using a Jabber client for that? [23:38] onetinsoldier, sure [23:39] please do you know any other program which lets you stick the desktop recorder to a specifiw window, and record even when it's minimized? [23:39] otokoyama: sudo apt-get --force-yes -f install [23:39] hmm is it --ignore-missing [23:39] hi I was wondering if and how it is possible to takeover an existing terminal? im on pts/2 and I want to takeover pts/1 [23:39] k0d3g3ar, nope.... do they have jabber based on AJAX / PHP? [23:39] onetinsoldier, i thought --force yes just skipped asking the questions [23:39] and -f is to fix missing [23:39] doufer: Yep, I think there are few open source projects around in PHP that have Jabber clients for that. I seem to remember coming across sometihng on Google Code for that last year [23:40] k8d a link would be greatly appreciated [23:40] doufer: sure.... www.google.com [23:40] LOL [23:40] otokoyama: --force-yes is a little more 'dangerous' than that ;-) [23:40] doufer: :) [23:40] Is there an easy way to make a Mandriva 2010 LIve USB, i tried Unetbootin but it gave me errors on boot [23:40] How do I get grub to show menu when there is only 1 os installed and doesnt show it [23:40] Anyone could send me a tell saying how I can create a new user then root please thanks [23:40] onetinsoldier, ok i will give it a shot (needing proper libssl library) [23:41] lol duffkitty what for ?

[23:47] needhelpUbuntu: oh are yu sat at what will be the host? [23:47] when i did a reboot, nvidia lost configs, cannot access desktop [23:47] k0d3g3ar: what package is that in? [23:48] bcurtiswx: Not sure what repository is required for that, but see if you can install gconf from Synaptic [23:48] ascheel, steve_ grub.cfg should not be edited [23:48] KenBW2, i would actually like to copy my home dir to remote end and reinstall [23:48] thanx for heads up!

Definitely gnome devel or something like that [23:49] 9.10 [23:49] steve_, usually you can just do probe grub and do and update, if that doesn't work then create your own entry in 40_custom and update grub [23:49] .17 kernel i believe [23:50] steve_, i think just a grub-probe will do [23:50] thanks! thankfully grub2 has always played nice for me ;) but i will have a play now - helps out in the future ;) [23:50] needhelpUbuntu: hang on, ill check where nvidia-settings puts its config on here [23:51] KenBW2, when i tried to smb://192.168.1.5/ my home dir. i noticed, that the live cd can not truly mount the data on that drive or should i say, my home user dir [23:51] anyone knows how to add evolution to the mail icon on the right upper side of the screen? [23:51] needhelpUbuntu: are the files youre trying to recover on the "host"? [23:52] needhelpUbuntu: as in not at the PC you're at now [23:52] KenBW2, yes [23:52] yes im on that pc [23:52] liveusb and xchat [23:52] anyone knows how to add evolution to the mail icon on the right upper side of the screen?

[23:54] i tried the palimpsest disk util [23:54] chetos, right click anywhere in your pane [23:54] needhelpUbuntu: and the PC you're currently using is on live-something? [23:54] K0d3g3ar: CHKDSK looks like it got the drive stable enough for me to get what I needed...thanks again for the help! [23:54] its shows 489 gig ext4 @ sda1 [23:54] i mounted it [23:54] but..... /home/username is totally default, none of my data is there [23:54] chetos, right click in your panel, then click "add to panel" [23:54] now again it is happening. [23:55] KenBW2, yes, i am currently using usblive [23:55] correct [23:55] k0d3g3ar: what package do I need to have Mono ? [23:55] k0d3g3ar: Library Watcher: no (requires Mono >= 2.4.3) [23:55] Checkmate91: No problem. [23:55] needhelpUbuntu: /home/user is the liveusb's home folder, not sda1's [23:55] tucemiux that adds the icnon for the pannel but i wanna add it to the mail icon with empathy [23:55] bcurtiswx: I think mono is its own package (I'm not a fan or supporter of Mono, so I'm probably the wrong person to ask on that) [23:55] needhelpUbuntu: your files will be at /media//home/user [23:56] KenBW2, sorry if i am confusing you... here let me try this [23:56] chetos, you have to be specific in your post, i very rarely use empathy [23:57] KenBW2, usblive is running on same computer i need to recover /home/myuser home dir from. i would like to mount /dev/sda1 such that i can see the data. currently when using palimpsest disk util, it mounts sda1 but.. my data is not there, but the default /home/myusername as it was. but no data in Documents, Videos,, so forth [23:57] yes [23:57] tucemiux look...when u click on the mail icon apperas Evolution and empathy right? [23:57] KenBW2, correct, i went to /media/biglongstringhere [23:58] chetos, what "mail icon" you are referring to? [23:58] KenBW2, i changed to /home/myusernamehere, and nothing is there except skel files [23:58] needhelpUbuntu: i could SSH to your PC from here if you like/are able [23:58] the one it's next to the date [23:58] upper right side of ur screen [23:59] chetos, i have pidgin installed instead of empathy and my mail icon shows evolution and pidgin [23:59] chetos, so you want to put an icon for evolution in your panel all the right to the right? [23:59] KenBW2, problem with that is, 1. i have gateway, 2. i dont have connection as wireless is not up if i reboot and not use usblive, 3. i can simply follow instructions from 2nd laptop i have available to walk through fixing old config'd os.
