| pfifo | turtle^s0up, i put a shell script in /usr/bin that fixes my resolv whenever my router breaks it | 00:11 |
| Izinucs | pfifo: yep.. the router is set to do DHCP from 192.168.0.100-119 ... I'm trying to set my ip at 192.168.0.50 outside the DHCP range.. gateway is standard at 192.168.0.1 (pretty typical) | 00:12 |
| Jinxware | pfifo, dhcpcd has a parameter to not update resolv.conf automatically, but dhclient seems to lack this option | 00:12 |
| azul | (\ /) | 00:12 |
| pfifo | Izinucs, is your router also doing NAT? It might ignore anyone outside that range | 00:13 |
| === Guest23170 is now known as jasonjang | ||
| pfifo | Izinucs, try setting a static ip inside that range and see if it works, also is your router blocking ping? | 00:14 |
| Fawn | You could use static IP on ubuntu. The dhclient/network manager stuff seems too complex | 00:14 |
| Izinucs | pfifo: it is doing NAT.. doesn't block ping from inside the LAN.. but I'll try your suggestion.. | 00:14 |

| AndreMorro[BR] | ninjaslim, with only one monitor its kinda wierd | 00:16 |

| Cloudwatcher | anyone know why my wireless refuses to connect to a network if its password protected? | 01:24 |
| yaboo | Dr_Willis: there a web pages on it being done, but it seems I the ubuntu package won't overwrite over the debian package | 01:24 |
| archboxman | Trizicus: since we can't get hold off properitory drivers from Nvidia your video preformance may sufure a bit | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | 'redundant array of external usb hard drives' | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | yaboo: there may be some apt options to force it.. or you may need to remove the other package first then install the ubuntu one | 01:25 |
| Trizicus | archboxman: Ok I just wanted to be sure i have the 'best' perf allowed to me by closed source devs... | 01:25 |

| jimisrvrox | anybody good with wireless? I am trying to get my rt2500 to work in 9.10 should work out of the box but its not...would appreciate some help | 01:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Its amazing the features that apt has.. that ive never used. :) | 01:26 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: I do NOT have a system settings | 01:26 |
| archboxman | Blue1: that was for KDE nether do I still looking can't you install compiz?? | 01:27 |
| Blue1 | arch I can install compiz | 01:27 |
| Blue1 | but | 01:27 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: compiz will not let me drag to another workspace | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Blue1: drag what to another work space? | 01:28 |
| archboxman | lol Blue1 yes it will... ;) | 01:28 |
| DaZ | !find jhead | 01:28 |
| ubottu | Found: jhead | 01:28 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: this way work I found where its set: System Settings > Window Behavior > Advanced > Placement: Centered | 01:28 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: see I have no system settings anywhere | 01:29 |
| * Dr_Willis points out that the 'work space switcher' works differently (slightly) in metacity then in compiz. | 01:29 | |
| archboxman | Blue1: I said that was for KDE... not gnome | 01:29 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: ahh not running kde - that's why I didn't understand | 01:29 |
| airtonix | Blue1, you installed compizconfig-settings-manager i assume ? | 01:29 |
| Blue1 | airtonix: installed | 01:29 |
| Blue1 | let me activate it | 01:30 |
| archboxman | Blue1: you need to play with compiz it can do a lot more then metacity trust me... lol | 01:30 |
| airtonix | Blue1, activating it just opens the program... it is merely a front end to the gconf settings compiz uses | 01:30 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: compiz activated | 01:30 |
| * myse|f on Limp Bizkit - My Generation (Greatest Hitz - 2005) [1:58/3:41] Alternative | 01:30 | |
| airtonix | Blue1, have you tried simply holding alt and right click dragging the program to the other workspace ? | 01:31 |
| Dr_Willis | the workplace switcher in metacity lets you drag/drop windows from one desktop to another.. the one in compiz does not.. (i think i got that right) | 01:31 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: i did system/preferences/appearance/visual effects/and normal | 01:31 |
| Pici | myse|f: Please disable that cript in this channel. | 01:31 |
| myse|f | sorry | 01:31 |
| archboxman | Blue1: Don't have compiz installed follow Dr_Willis advice | 01:31 |
| Blue1 | airtonix: no I am trying to use the task switch I could try that -- | 01:31 |
| airtonix | Dr_Willis, this is correct. | 01:31 |
| Blue1 | okay how do I fix compiz to do this? | 01:31 |
| airtonix | Blue1, you can't you just drag the window to the edge of the screen and keep dragging | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | I am refering to the 'workspace switcher' applet. I can set up compuiz where i click, drag a window to the left.. and it switches to the nexct desktop... | 01:32 |
| Blue1 | airtonix: no I am trying to do that in the task space....but okay let's fix the centering first | 01:32 |
| airtonix | Dr_Willis, yes i understand... i think metacity also allows this yes ? | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | airtonix: i thought it did.. ive not used metacuity much lately | 01:32 |
| airtonix | Blue1, not possible with the panel widge while compiz is running | 01:33 |
| Blue1 | airtonix I can disable compiz | 01:33 |
| airtonix | Blue1, the compiz way alternaitive to the widget is to enable the expo plugin | 01:33 |
| DGPRO | hello | 01:33 |

| DGPRO | i just installed ubuntu 9.10 and my internet connection is not working thru ubuntu. It does thru windows but not ubuntu | 01:34 |
| airtonix | Blue1, why ? don;t you need compiz for something ? | 01:34 |

| Tlacoyo | hey ladies | 01:35 |
| DGPRO | hi. my internet connection with ubuntu is not working on my compaq persario 500 5wv280 | 01:36 |
| airtonix | archboxman, Blue1 you want window centering when a particular app opens without configuring text files, is this right ? | 01:36 |
| DGPRO | hi. my internet connection with ubuntu is not working on my compaq persario 500 5wv280 | 01:36 |
| bazhang | DGPRO, please dont repeat | 01:36 |
| DGPRO | sorry but no one responds to me | 01:36 |
| Dr_Willis | airtonix: i dont even see that feature in metacity any more.. or where to set it. | 01:36 |
| Trek | DGPRO, did you check to see if your wifi card is on the "compatible" list? | 01:36 |
| === sixtila is now known as Guest14700 | ||

| Trek | define "does not work" | 01:37 |
| Trek | define "does not work", DGPRO * | 01:37 |
| DGPRO | um.. well i cant connect to the internet. | 01:37 |
| bazhang | DGPRO, is this a regular install (dual boot) or a wubi install | 01:37 |
| Dr_Willis | can you ping your router? other machines? what does ifconfig say about your ip#.... | 01:38 |
| airtonix | archboxman, Blue1, I admit that using the windows plugins in compiz makes this easier, but you'd have to be willing to use other ways to manage your workspaces | 01:38 |
| DGPRO | i have two harddrives and it is a dualboot with out wubi | 01:38 |
| bazhang | DGPRO, if you will, please sudo dhclient eth0 after checking that eth0 is the ethernet in ifconfig | 01:38 |
| DGPRO | ok | 01:38 |
| bazhang | DGPRO, pastebin the output (ie dont paste here) | 01:38 |
| Blue1 | okay the compiz thing works | 01:39 |
| archboxman | airtonix: are you ok compiz has loads of choices when it comes to managing windows drag object around cube to window | 01:39 |
| Blue1 | archboxman: not happy with adding something I don't really like but it's more important to centre and I'll adjust | 01:39 |
| airtonix | archboxman, cube is pointless in my opinion... there are stronger elements to compiz than the cube | 01:39 |
| archboxman | airtonix: like grouping that is cool | 01:40 |
| airtonix | Blue1, simply turn elements of compiz off you dont like using compizconfig-settings-manager | 01:40 |
| Blue1 | airtonix: it's something new - but I'll live with it. | 01:40 |
| Blue1 | airtonix: thanks | 01:41 |
| airtonix | Blue1, fusion-icon also helps with managing compiz | 01:41 |

| gooraang_ | sorry but no one replied to my question either | 01:41 |
| pvl1 | airtonix, cube is useful if u have a lot of windows open | 01:41 |
| airtonix | pvl1, no | 01:42 |
| archboxman | !compiz settings | 01:42 |
| pvl1 | airtonix y not | 01:42 |
| airtonix | pvl1, scale plugin does a better job than that | 01:42 |
| DaZ | y, cube is useful. | 01:42 |
| lovre | why cant i listen to audio from two application? when i listen to music with amarok, no other app can produce sound? | 01:42 |
| airtonix | DaZ, pvl1 cube is just pornography | 01:42 |
| Tlacoyo | SOME | 01:42 |
| archboxman | DaZ: lots is useful just upto each individuals needs | 01:43 |
| pvl1 | airtonix, i dont like scale bc i like to minimize windows per output, otherwise u are correct | 01:43 |
| DaZ | archboxman: even snow plugin? <: | 01:43 |
| pvl1 | lovre, check ur sounds settings, the mananger might be muting other apps | 01:43 |
| airtonix | pvl1, or you have the expo plugin. main focus of the cube plugin is a visual effect for workspace changing | 01:44 |
| lovre | pvl1: lol, it was muted... thanx :) | 01:44 |
| airtonix | Blue1, have a look at the "window rules" plugin and check out the "fixed window placement" tab | 01:44 |
| archboxman | DaZ: snow lol funny I don't use Ubuntu ... I'm using archlinux and Linux Mint | 01:45 |
| pvl1 | airtonix, i have the mous spinny one | 01:45 |

| Blue1 | airtonix: wow lots of things - | 01:47 |
| airtonix | Blue1, my other suggestion (if you dont want to use compiz) is that you should check out devilspie | 01:47 |

| Random832 | only non-secured ones | 01:54 |
| onetinsoldier | NotTooSmart: yes. i know that. however, ubuntu does not have a firewall turned on by default. i got the idea that you were telling Justin_` that he has a firewall running by default | 01:55 |
| Blue1 | airtonix: looks interesting have to play with it.. | 01:55 |

| Myke516 | I have a question, how do you remove a program that was installed. I Installed google earth, and now i cant seem to uninstall it | 02:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: depends on how you installed it | 02:04 |
| airtonix | Myke516, how did you install it | 02:04 |
| faileas | Myke516: how did you install it? using a deb, a repo, or a script? | 02:04 |
| onetinsoldier | redduck676: that page for that link, on that page, click on the word 'Karmic' for your arch.... i386 or x86_64 | 02:04 |
| Myke516 | hmmm. googleearthlinux.bin | 02:04 |
| faileas | if its the first two, you can use apt or aptitude. if its the latter, there should be an uninstall script somewhere | 02:04 |
| Myke516 | that file, i think i did "Sudo sh googleearthlinux.bin | 02:04 |
| faileas | hmm | 02:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: if you ran the installer as a user. I Think it installed to the 'googleearth' directory - If you did sudo.. no idea where it went | 02:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: it might have an uninstall option. I use the repos that have googleearth | 02:05 |

| drew3 | Hi Folks, My WIndow edges are quite difficult to grab, Changing or adjusting window size with the mouse/pointer is difficult, where do I look to adjust for w wider grab of the pointer along window edges? | 02:13 |
| zebastian | Random832: how do i do that? | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: delete the diretory it installed to then.. and use the repos in the future. i guess | 02:14 |
| Random832 | go to your keyboard layout settings | 02:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: or chedk the google earth page for how to remove it | 02:14 |

| coldpizza72i | cjcopi there is still nothing new in /usr/lib | 02:14 |

| Justin_` | But i kinda need to :S | 02:14 |
| Justin_` | For the setup I want.. | 02:14 |
| tarski | Justin_`: you can use chmod -R for recursive | 02:15 |
| cjcopi | coldpizza72i: what library package did you install? | 02:15 |
| coldpizza72i | cimg | 02:15 |
| Myke516 | ok i guess ill have to try that. Apparently google earth isnt in the ubuntu repositories | 02:15 |
| Justin_` | tarski, Am I able to PM you? | 02:15 |
| tarski | Justin_`: ya but im playign WoW | 02:15 |
| Justin_` | Ok | 02:15 |
| coldpizza72i | cjcopi: cimg | 02:16 |
| jellow_ | Myke516: there is a .deb or add a new PPA , Google for it | 02:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: its not in the official ones.. its at meduibuntu i recall | 02:16 |
| Dr_Willis | or at the google repos | 02:16 |
| Dr_Willis | if you are just going to uninstall it.. then install it.. why bother. ;) | 02:17 |
| cjcopi | coldpizza72i: i see, so cimg-dev? it looks like it installs the headers in /usr/include/CImg/plugins/ | 02:17 |

| onetinsoldier | hello lwizardl | 02:17 |
| coldpizza72i | cjcopi: yea but what about the lib | 02:17 |
| Myke516 | apparently there doesnt seem to be way to uninstall it | 02:18 |
| Myke516 | i cant even delete the directory | 02:18 |
| Myke516 | i dont have permission it says | 02:18 |

| jellow_ | Myke516: gksu nautilus | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo sh /opt/google-earth/uninstall | 02:19 |
| cjcopi | coldpizza72i: ah, ok, it doesn't install any libraries itself, the header files are templates so contain all the code you need, it relies on libmagick++ for the image processing, so you will see libMagick++.so in /usr/lib | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | is what one thread says Myke516 | 02:19 |
| cjcopi | have you tried compiling a simple program? | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: you instlled it as sudo. sio its a system directory.. thus you have to do sudo rights to remove it | 02:19 |
| Myke516 | let me try that Dr | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: http://groups.google.com/group/earth-linux/browse_thread/thread/ad247e4963372efd?pli=1 | 02:20 |
| coldpizza72i | cjcopi: nothing that uses this lib...thanks | 02:20 |

| cjcopi | ok, see /usr/share/doc/cimg-dev for more info and some example programs | 02:20 |
| lwizardl | Is there a way to create a fully custom login GUI for ubuntu ? | 02:20 |
| sunrunner20 | how do you get an in OS listing of available packages? | 02:20 |
| Myke516 | nope. How can i get sudo to work in Nautilius? | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | lwizardl: thers alternatives to GDM if thats what you want. GDM in 9.10 is not very themeable | 02:21 |
| ddm | alguien con ubuntu? | 02:21 |
| AbAdDoN_ | hello to everybody! | 02:21 |
| jellow_ | sunrunner20: apt-cache search "Prog* name"? | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: itsbest to learn to do root things from the terminal. Running nautilus as root is asking for trouble | 02:21 |
| sunrunner20 | jellow: no searching | 02:21 |
| Myke516 | ok | 02:21 |

| Myke516 | so i guess sudo delete /opt? | 02:21 |
| Myke516 | would that work? | 02:21 |
| nisstyre65 | rm | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: and there was no need to use 'sudo' to install google earth it can install to the users home. | 02:22 |
| lwizardl | Dr_Willis, yeah I know about GTK, KDE, and FCE but I was but I was wanting to change to login style to more like something you would expect from a tv show or movie look | 02:22 |
| ddm | se habla castellano aquí? | 02:22 |
| jellow_ | sunrunner20: there is aptitude | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | lwizardl: theres a few gdm themes out for 9.10 but not a lot | 02:22 |

| nisstyre65 | Myke516; use rm | 02:22 |
| lwizardl | Dr_Willis, yeah for example have you ever seen the movie hackers ? | 02:23 |
| Myke516 | ok | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: i just installed google earth here.. thers an uninstall script in the googleearth directory | 02:23 |

| DemoOn | can someone could paste its /proc/mounts ? | 02:38 |
| eitan | i had 8.10 and it worked perfectly | 02:38 |

| Myke516 | Yes onetin | 02:58 |
| trism | Myke516: find folder_name -type f -exec chmod permissions {} + (assuming you mean recursively) | 02:58 |
| B3rz3rk3r | Someone have a link that explains how home folder encryption works when installing Ubuntu (9.10)? | 02:59 |
| trism | Myke516: replacing folder_name with the path to the folder and permissions with the permissions you want to apply | 02:59 |
| renegaid | why encrypt? | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | sctually dosent chmod have a -r option? | 02:59 |
| onetinsoldier | Dr_Willis: yes. it does | 02:59 |
| trism | Dr_Willis: yes but it will change directories too, and if you -x you can't traverse them | 03:00 |
| B3rz3rk3r | renegaid, data security is normally the main reason | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | # Script to fix permissions on all files below current dir ---> find -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 664 | 03:00 |
| renegaid | I see. | 03:00 |
| Myke516 | apparently i cant seem to delete something, i just want to delete a folder i cant seem to do it since im not root, but i cant be root in anything but the terminal | 03:00 |
| === ubuntu is now known as ubuntu123 | ||
| Myke516 | i really dont know how to explain it | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | trism: yea i got a fixdirs.sh also :) find -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 755 | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: install mc and use it as your root file manager.. is one way. sudo apt-get install mc, then sudo mc | 03:01 |

| MrZhi | hey, if I chown '.' inside a directory, will that allow the user to write inside the directory while maintaining root.root over that directory? | 03:04 |
| B3rz3rk3r | seems like it would be a better idea to just use something like TrueCrypt from what they say there jellow_? | 03:05 |

| rahduke | is there a program that works as a front end for multiple emulators, like zsnes,fceu, and maybe mame as well? | 03:06 |
| clamiam | rahduke, there are some programs like that but i'm not sure they're available for linux | 03:06 |
| jellow_ | B3rz3rk3r: I would use true Crypt , up to you though | 03:06 |
| rahduke | i found this http://www.camya.com/eccblog but its only for windows | 03:07 |
| clamiam | rahduke, http://www.zophar.net/frontends/universal.html | 03:07 |
| B3rz3rk3r | jellow_ i think il go with TrueCrypt as well, im assuming the operation is much the same as the windows version? | 03:08 |
| clamiam | rahduke, also try searching google for 'emulator frontends' | 03:08 |

| nowirelessN | Berzerker, well its a brand new laptop and I am looking at the sticker on it that says 802.11 b/g/n | 03:23 |

| Dr_Willis | DemoOn: you can set up a usb flash drive with grub2 to boot an iso file. Thats doable.. | 03:31 |
| DemoOn | the only way is to burn it? | 03:31 |

| Dr_Willis | DemoOn: or use some other tools to make a bootable flash drive | 03:31 |
| vocx | DemoOn, burn the ISO to a CD; boot the computer with the CD in, it should boot and offer you ways to install. | 03:32 |
| Snowy09 | but it kept coming up with fatal error | 03:32 |
| Snowy09 | 1 year old | 03:32 |
| DemoOn | vocx: dont have cd | 03:32 |
| Berzerker | so I'm trying to search for my hardware drivers (I know I have Broadcom proprietary ones on this netbook) and it doesn't find anything, any ideas? | 03:32 |
| DemoOn | ok ill try to find that tool for creating bootable flash | 03:32 |
| onetinsoldier | DemoOn: i was going to say what Dr_Willis just said. but, your systems need to support booting from a usb stick. and, you may need to go into the bios to enable it as well | 03:32 |
| onetinsoldier | DemoOn: try --> unetbootin | 03:32 |
| _ATMA | hey, i have no idea what the hell i did, but my sound totally stopped working. ive mulled over tuns of documents and solutions none of them work, yes my vol is unmuted, plugged in, soundcard detected, etc | 03:32 |

| onetinsoldier | DemoOn: unetbootin | 03:35 |
| vocx | Snowy09, but do you run Ubuntu currently? Do you just want to erase all data? You can do that easily with the Vista installation DVD I suppose, and even with the Ubuntu Live CD. | 03:36 |
| DemoOn | onetinsoldier: unetbootin is only for installation? | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | That luinuxliveusb has some features that unetbootin dosent | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | DemoOn: it generates a bootable 'live' flash drive | 03:36 |
| kholby | Berzerker: You have an active connection on the machine with the problem? I'm assuming that's the one you're using. | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | DemoOn: you can use to install from | 03:36 |
| DemoOn | onetinsoldier: i wanted that when i will change something on that liveusb, i want to stay after reboot | 03:36 |
| Berzerker | kholby, yeah it's connected over ethernet atm | 03:36 |
| n00p | guys I have a laptop and something is terribly wrong.. just now the mouse started moving to the lower right hand corner, I can't get it away from there it just moves back to the lower right hand corner. I'm not even touching my mousepad. | 03:36 |
| nowirelessN | Berzerker: even though lspci says its a '100' its actually a '1000' and intel has this to say about it "The Intel® WiFi Link 1000 is an IEEE802.11b/g/Draft-N1 wireless network adapterthat operates in the 2.4 GHz spectrum" | 03:36 |
| n00p | how do I stop this? | 03:36 |
| DemoOn | oh well, i will try unetbootin first | 03:37 |
| nr | DDwi, live disk has finally booted, I have to figure out how to paste output into irc window... | 03:37 |
| kholby | Berzerker: Have you updated the package list? | 03:37 |
| nowirelessN | Berzerker: so thanks for pointing me in the right direction | 03:37 |
| DDwi | paste into pastebin | 03:37 |
| Berzerker | mm | 03:37 |
| Berzerker | no | 03:37 |
| DDwi | and just highlight and right click | 03:37 |
| greezmunkey | n00p, what model laptop? | 03:37 |
| Berzerker | nowirelessN, np | 03:37 |
| n00p | dell inspiron 1525 | 03:37 |
| onetinsoldier | DemoOn: hmmm, i'm not sure. i mean, i use it to boot Ubuntu from a usb stick, which i guess i could just run it from there. but, i when i boot from usb stick i do it to install | 03:37 |
| greezmunkey | noop, known issue...I have one to! | 03:37 |
| greezmunkey | n00p, are you using a mouse, or the touchpad? | 03:38 |
| nr | DDwi, just pasted under my full name: Norman Ramsey | 03:38 |
| n00p | touchpad | 03:38 |
| n00p | how do I fix this? | 03:39 |
| DemoOn | ill try to install 9.04 over 9.10 and check viddeo drivers | 03:39 |
| onetinsoldier | DemoOn: anyway, go with that usb live that Dr_Willis told you about. it looks like that's what you want :-) | 03:39 |
| DDwi | err | 03:39 |
| greezmunkey | n00p, do you have a P1 Phillips screwdriver? | 03:39 |
| DDwi | it should give you a link nr | 03:39 |
| n00p | greezmunkey why would I need that? | 03:39 |
| [BT]Brendan | Ok Berzerker I still seem a little lost about which file system to go with. Mac compatibility isnt the most important for my needs... yet. mainly linux and windows, but with the ability to install sometihng on a mac to make it work. | 03:39 |
| nr | DDwi, sorry never used pastbin before: | 03:39 |
| nr | http://pastebin.com/m79475106 | 03:39 |
| Berzerker | [BT]Brendan, if you only need read support while on OS X, then NTFS is probably your best bet. | 03:40 |
| === stevenfgsdfg is now known as Steven | ||
| DDwi | nr, hmm and you have stuff installed for that atm? | 03:40 |
| nr | atm? | 03:40 |
| Santisnight | Can anyone here help with a Virtual box issue? (everyone at #vbox seems to be asleep) | 03:40 |
| [BT]Brendan | Well I need it for recording my music. and Mac are big in the music recording industry so writing would be important | 03:40 |
| nr | I'm able to mess around with cfdisk. I built a swap partition, ext3 for /boot, and XFS for /, but the installer sees none of it | 03:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Santisnight: state the issue and see.. - Virtualbox does have some very good docs/manuals on their hiomepage | 03:40 |
| greezmunkey | n00p, The inspirons sometimes have an issue with the touchpads where the case will press one side of the touchpad too hard. You can correct the issue by making sure that all the screws on the botom are torqued the same amount. Sounds crazy, I know! | 03:41 |
| nr | What you see now is the result of my deleting all the partitions | 03:41 |
| [BT]Brendan | Also used as a back up drive, so im looking at the dual drives with raid so it dupes everything | 03:41 |
| Steven | When do I apt-cache show <package> does it have to be installed or just listed in the relevant repository? | 03:41 |
| chad_ | hey i am new to ubuntu and wondering if there is a way to install on an original xbox without mods | 03:41 |
| Dr_Willis | chad_: not without some mods | 03:41 |
| [BT]Brendan | *thats what I'm looking at buying* | 03:41 |
| Santisnight | Dr_Willis, someone reacted finally thanks though; | 03:41 |
| Berzerker | [BT]Brendan, if you buy MacDrive on Windows, the read/write support for HFS+ on it is excellent, linux native read/write support for HFS+ is also great, so it would be best all around | 03:41 |
| nr | DDwi, if ATM == 'at the moment', I can make a filesystem on it. | 03:41 |
| nr | I can try mounting and r/w files; haven't done that... | 03:42 |
| Berzerker | [BT]Brendan, if you don't want to spend money on it, then your next best selection would be NTFS | 03:42 |
| chad_ | i read someting about using an original version of mechassult are there any other ways to soft mod so it will run | 03:42 |
| DDwi | nr, I mean, do you have anything installed on that hdd? and is that the only hdd installed? | 03:42 |
| === ChorizoGrueso is now known as orgullocachanill | ||
| [BT]Brendan | Yeah But I awnt to be able to plug it in to other peoples computers on the go as I'll be away from home for the large part of the next 2 years | 03:42 |

| nr | DDwi, no nothing was installed on the HDD, and it's the only HDD in the system | 03:45 |
| nr | I just put three partitions on it and put an ext3 filesys on one partition and I can read and write files | 03:45 |
| DDwi | nr, your on 9.10 ? | 03:45 |
| nr | But the fdisk -l you saw was with all partitions deleted | 03:45 |
| nr | Yes, I just downloaded 9.10 yesterday. | 03:45 |
| chad_ | it is my stepsons xbox i wanted to make it perform better i personally won't buy anything from them anymore | 03:45 |
| onetinsoldier | yaboo: what output do you get from the following command? --> dpkg -l libc-bin | 03:46 |
| nr | DDwi, I also tried 'sudo partman' but it doesn't see the disk either | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | chad_: better off buying a low end pc to run linux on if you want a computer. | 03:46 |
| jacob__ | hi. How do I use Samba? | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | !samba | jacob__ | 03:46 |
| ubottu | jacob__: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 03:46 |
| yaboo | onetinsoldier: libc-bin version none | 03:46 |
| DDwi | nr, hmm thats odd, what about gparted in your system -> administration -> menue | 03:47 |
| Dr_Willis | jacob__: its also documuneted in the 'samba-doc' package. (3 books in there) :) | 03:47 |
| nr | DDwi, I'll check it out; let you know in a mo | 03:47 |
| onetinsoldier | yaboo: are you able to install that package by chance? i don't know that you will be able to, but try --> sudo apt-get install libc-bin | 03:47 |
| chad_ | dr_willis that makes sense and i have a computer with linux but with three children fighting over the internet i wanted to put a third machine with online capabillities in the house for very little money ie free | 03:47 |
| Dr_Willis | chad_: you still need xbox -> usb adaptors. to use normal keyboard/mice I belive. | 03:48 |
| nr | DDwi, gparted comes up and sees all three partitions with a nice graphical display | 03:48 |
| yaboo | onetinsoldier: getting unmet dependencies | 03:48 |
| onetinsoldier | yaboo: ok, sounds good | 03:48 |
| Dr_Willis | chad_: there might be some xbox soft mods out. but i dont pay attention to xbox mod info any more | 03:48 |
| DDwi | nr, but sudo fdisk -l doesn't display the partitions? | 03:49 |
| nr | DDwi, revised output from fdisk -l at http://pastebin.com/d82f427c | 03:49 |
| nr | You'll see the partitions | 03:49 |
| cromb | Hello, I have an issue with SSH users connecting to my server without requesting a shell/executing a command. I have tried using the ForceCommand option in sshd_config but this still doesn't appear to force these users to load their shell. | 03:49 |
| DDwi | nr, ah that looks better, you can boot into that or that is just what you've done manually? | 03:49 |
| cromb | eep hit enter a bit early, would anyone have any suggestions on another way to force ssh clients to load a shell =| | 03:49 |
| nr | DDwi, that's just what I've done manually | 03:50 |
| chad_ | dr_willis: i don't know if it works both ways but i bought a cheep usb cord and cut it in half and cut the plug off the xbox remote and soldered color to color and it works for games on the computer i think the reverse would have the same effect | 03:50 |
| nr | I can't get the installer to acknowledge that the disk or the partitions exist | 03:50 |
| nr | DDwi, I haven't tried any kind of manual install; I was hoping to run the installer. | 03:50 |
| DDwi | nr, is this a SATA hdd? | 03:50 |
| nr | DDwi, yes it is. | 03:51 |
| PrototypeX29A | is firefox's spell checling related to it's preferred languages in any way? | 03:51 |
| nr | DDwi, the box has an IDE optical drive and the one SATA HDD | 03:51 |
| jacob__ | Can someone explain to me how I use Wine? | 03:51 |
| jacob__ | I just installed it. | 03:51 |
| chad_ | dr_willis: ms doesn't even support the original anymore they should make a cheep bios reformat disk | 03:51 |
| nr | jacob__, if you get an exe file, like an installer, you can run 'wine install.exe' | 03:52 |
| onetinsoldier | jacob__: i think one of the first things you do is set it up with the command 'winecfg' | 03:52 |
| DDwi | nr, what does df -h show? | 03:52 |
| nr | jacob__, yes 'winecfg' is good too | 03:52 |
| Dr_Willis | chad_: yea.. right... and they should open source Dos While you are waiting for that to happen... | 03:52 |
| jacob__ | so basically | 03:52 |
| chad_ | lol | 03:52 |
| jacob__ | 1. Download installer .exe to desktop | 03:52 |
| jacob__ | 2. Open terminal + wine install-program-here.exe | 03:53 |
| chad_ | dr_willis: ms is so money hungry i'm supprised they haven't done that | 03:53 |
| Snowy09 | how do i compleatly erase the hard drive | 03:53 |
| Berzerker | is anyone using Chromium on linux? | 03:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Berzerker: The google chome browser works very well here. | 03:54 |
| Berzerker | under wine? | 03:55 |
| iWolf | Im using VirtualBox, And I have my window maximized (not-fullscreen) and it is still kind of small | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Snowy09: use gparted delete the partitions.. or use 'dd' | 03:55 |
| iWolf | Anyway to make it bigger | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Berzerker: why use it in wine? | 03:55 |
| Berzerker | oh well how else can you run Google Chrome? | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Berzerker: err.. google has a linux native port. | 03:55 |
| Berzerker | they do? | 03:55 |
| nr | DDwi, see http://pastebin.com/d6f18cd78 for df -h (I have not mounted anything from /dev/sda) | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | for several months now i think | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Berzerker: for several months now i think | 03:55 |
| pilif12p | can i do something like "locate" but just for dirs? | 03:56 |
| Berzerker | oh wow they do | 03:56 |
| Berzerker | sweet | 03:56 |
| Berzerker | I'm sold :D | 03:56 |
| greezmunkey | Chromium they call it I think | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Berzerker: the deb from google installs/setsup a repo for them | 03:56 |
| Berzerker | yeah | 03:56 |
| Berzerker | greezmunkey, chromium is the OS project that Google Chrome is based off of | 03:56 |
| nr | Berzerker: google chrome native linux works pretty well except for PDFs | 03:56 |
| vocx | iWolf, perhaps you need to install something called "Guest additions"; it's a virtual CD that is inside the virtual machine, which installs better support for the mouse and screen. Then you may be able to maximize it fully. I can confirm this because I don't have virtualbox currently installed, but I've done it in the past. | 03:57 |
| Berzerker | nr, thanks | 03:57 |
| iWolf | I've got the "disk" | 03:57 |
| iWolf | What now? | 03:57 |
| greezmunkey | Berzerker, cool w/me I don't use it anyway! | 03:57 |
| cromb | does anyone know how to force ssh clients to run their shell | 03:57 |
| Berzerker | greezmunkey, lol | 03:57 |
| DDwi | nr, next step is to re-run the installer and keep an eye on /var/log/messages on the command line something like tail -30 /var/log/messages should do it | 03:57 |
| vocx | iWolf, you should be able to mount it and run it inside the virtual machine. | 03:58 |
| nr | OK, will run and check the logs with tail -f | 03:58 |
| onetinsoldier | pilif12p: you might want to use the 'find' command. you might also check this out --> http://www.kbrandt.com/2008/06/pygnomefind-gui-frontend-to-gnu-find.html | 03:58 |

| iWolf | Geared* | 04:01 |
| vocx | iWolf, eeeh, junkies use the command line? | 04:01 |
| kindofabuzz | vocx, dude, no, SSL ftw | 04:01 |
| iWolf | Well, yea, semi-junkie then :L | 04:02 |
| kindofabuzz | sudo aptitude for the junkies | 04:02 |

| vocx | iWolf, the file that you mentioned, is it outside the virtual machine (host) or inside (guest)? | 04:02 |
| iWolf | inside | 04:02 |
| iWolf | There is a disk on my desktop | 04:02 |
| PrototypeX29A | i tried to ask a question in #firefox, but it says i can't write there, though the channel is not set to be moderated. Why is that? | 04:02 |

| nr | DDwi, I suppose I could try rebooting the live CD with the 'nodmraid' option, although this sounds dubious... | 04:04 |
| iWolf | No, nickserv is still here | 04:04 |
| vocx | iWolf, so, you are running a virtual Ubuntu inside, right? | 04:04 |
| nr | DDwi, if I'm using RAID it's not on purpose --- the motherboard is brand new and has unfamiliar BIOS | 04:04 |
| iWolf | Yes @ vocx | 04:04 |
| nr | DDwi, let me look at the kernel boot messages and see if there's anything about mdadm | 04:05 |
| === sivel is now known as levis | ||
| DDwi | nr, think you've figured out whats going on now, next step would be to hit the bios ect..ect.. | 04:05 |
| vocx | iWolf, well, so make it executable "chmod u+x file.bin", and then run it "./file.bin" I assume you know your root password inside, in case you need root privileges with "sudo". | 04:06 |

| ranjan | hello every body can any body can help me with fstab editing with fmask and dmask values | 04:09 |
| vocx | rwt, asking vague questions won't help you. You need to ask your question once and then repeat it in intervals. | 04:09 |
| nr | DDwi, there's a 'dmraid(8)' command with a zillion options | 04:09 |
| nr | I | 04:09 |
| nr | 'm hitting the man page to look for info on turning it off | 04:09 |
| nr | It definitely detects /dev/sda as a RAID device. | 04:09 |
| nr | Thousand thanks for your help!!!! | 04:10 |
| DDwi | nr, i'd do what the error message suggested, when you boot the live cd, type in the option noraid | 04:10 |
| vocx | rwt, also, you are using a development version. This channel is for stable releases only. You should go to #ubuntu+1 | 04:10 |
| DDwi | nr, yea :) have fun | 04:10 |
| ranjan | hello every body can any body can help me with fstab editing with fmask and dmask values as i am not able to figer it out what values should i go for an ntfs part which i am using for samba share ... with the network | 04:10 |
| Dr_Willis | ranjan: i did it once ages ago for shareing a ntfs over samba.. but I dont recall what i had to do. | 04:11 |
| ranjan | Dr_Willis : i tried to asign the values by folowing an guide in the community centre i mean to say by referring documentation but i am not able to figer out the exact values ... as after reborting i found my d drive that i want to share on network was not showing up in my linux box so i am looking out for that particular values ... so that i can assign it ... | 04:15 |
| Dr_Willis | 'not showing up' is proberly a different issue then the dmask/umask values bein wrong | 04:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ive had samba shares on wiondows machines not 'show' up - untill i used the ip# of the server not its name. (not sure why) | 04:16 |
| Dr_Willis | enabling the wins server feature on the linux box seemed to helped that issue | 04:16 |
| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis, It would... | 04:17 |
| Dr_Willis | I still have some windows machines that i can 'see' some times but not others.. could be they are on the wireless lan. | 04:17 |
| ranjan | Dr_Willis : ya i agree with you .. so i am looking for some more elobrate explationation on this issue on internet so that i can get an clear idea .. on this topic .. so that i can use it in much better way .. ;) | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | for me samba seems tobe more flakey now a days then it was 2 years ago. :) | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | but windows is also doing more weird stuff as well | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | and toss in wireless and various firewall 'features' it gets even worse | 04:18 |
| greezmunkey | ranjan: Check this: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/create-a-samba-user-on-ubuntu/ | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ranjan: yea i always add a samba password for each of my linux users. :) | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | my username on linux and windows are the same. :) so i dont need the last part of that guide | 04:20 |
| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis, :) | 04:21 |
| greezmunkey | lo | 04:21 |

| ekim | Will Final Fantasy online game play on linux? Is there a linux version of the game? | 04:23 |
| Snowy09 | i have wine | 04:23 |
| vocx | ekim, I doubt it very much | 04:24 |
| ekim | just wondered... | 04:24 |
| vocx | Snowy09, ekim playing windows games is not trivial. There a different success stories. But never go into linux thinking you can play games. | 04:24 |
| lithper2_ | i'm running a service on port 5000 as a non-root user. netstat tells me that the port is in LISTEN mode. however, when i run nmap to check if the port is opened, it says the port is closed. from what i researched, ubuntu doesn't block any ports. any ideas? | 04:24 |
| Snowy09 | its frustrating | 04:25 |
| Jimmy7830 | do u have the port right? | 04:25 |
| lithper2_ | yes | 04:25 |

| zakwilson | I'd like to temporarily stop pulseaudio. When I run 'pulseaudio -k' or 'killall pulseaudio', something respawns it after a few seconds. How can I prevent that? | 04:31 |
| Jimmy7830 | move it so it cant find it then move it back later. | 04:32 |
| JabberWalkie | make a small script that repeats the command every half second :) | 04:32 |
| od3n | anyone know why I cant seem to get linux to see my wireless adapter on my netbook | 04:32 |
| greezmunkey | zakwilson, possibly edit your rc files, there's a cool util for that but can't remember it now... | 04:33 |
| zakwilson | Aside from the heavy-handed approaches - both of which I'd already thought of. I want to know what, on a stock Ubuntu install respawns it. | 04:33 |
| Snowy09 | i don't like ubuntu | 04:33 |

| kindofabuzz | KiRiLoS, if all good in safe mode then your problem is some addon or theme. usually | 05:14 |
| usser | narretgrez, change the permissions that way, but it will affect all the newly created files not just files in that folder | 05:14 |
| KiRiLoS | kindofabuzz nope,it's still slow,as a matter of fact it is not open yet... | 05:15 |

| Dr_Willis | Myke516: err.. of course. | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | why would a upgrade make it not able to dual boot? | 05:20 |
| ruien | Myke516: yes; you can configure your GRUB bootloader to give you the option of which operating system to boot | 05:20 |
| Myke516 | not sure... I just get nervous about it, it took me a really long time to set up the dual boot i got going on now | 05:21 |
| Myke516 | i just dont want to mess it up | 05:21 |

| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. seting up dual boot is rather trivial most of the time | 05:21 |
| NotTooSmart | ubuntu wont break booting to a windows install, but windows will break booting ubuntu ......... | 05:21 |
| IdleOne | Myke516: there should not be any problems with the upgrade. To be sure backup your important files just in case. | 05:21 |
| melow01 | hey folks, I'm trying to unzip a tarball and I'm getting the error "gzip: stdin: not in gzip format". Any advice? | 05:22 |
| ruien | t_dsunn: does "route -n" show 192.168.1.1 as your gateway? | 05:22 |
| user123 | where can I download the windows driver for ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)? I am running virtualbox to run windows but I cannot have audio in there | 05:22 |
| Myke516 | yeah, i did the windows install first then ubuntu and got it on the second try (first time i hit the option "use largest free space" and its failed | 05:22 |
| onetinsoldier | melow01: what are you using to try and unpack the tarball? | 05:22 |
| codebx | user123, did you install the virtualbox guest additions? | 05:22 |
| NotTooSmart | Myke516: installing windows first is always best | 05:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: partition the hd's to leave part unallocated - that saves time. | 05:23 |
| Myke516 | but i got it going on now, although on the boot screen it gives me the option to load into older kernels of Linux | 05:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Myke516: or use 2 seperate hard driges | 05:23 |
| melow01 | onetinsoldier, sudo tar xfvz Vuze_Installer.tar.bz2 | 05:23 |

| user123 | codebx, probably I didnt | 05:24 |

| melow01 | ultraparadigm, Audadcity is a very popular audio editor/mixer but I don't know which plugins come with it | 05:24 |
| codebx | user123, boot windows under virtualbox and click devices -> install guest additions | 05:24 |
| melow01 | onetinsoldier, cool, I'll try it | 05:24 |
| codebx | and it'll install the drivers for your mouse, audio, network, etc | 05:24 |
| onetinsoldier | melow01: you need the 'j' option instead of the 'z' option because it's a bzip2 tarball, not a gzip tarball | 05:24 |
| ultraparadigm | Thanks melow01 | 05:25 |
| onetinsoldier | melow01: roger. good luck. cheers | 05:25 |
| melow01 | onetinsoldier, ahhhh, that helps! | 05:25 |

| NotTooSmart | Myke516: make a copy of grub by using sudo cp /etc/grub /wherever/you/want | 05:27 |

| codebx | user123, in the virtual box application itself, there is a menu bar at the top that says "Machine", "Devices", "help" once you have your guest operating system booted. You just click "Devices -> Install Guest Additions" | 05:27 |
| Myke516 | ok sounds good Nottoo | 05:27 |
| Myke516 | thank you all, Thanks again Dr. Willis | 05:28 |
| spwelton | got a (hopefully) simple question on python, anyone here speak python? | 05:28 |
| NotTooSmart | Myke516: err, /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 05:28 |
| t_dsunn | ruien: yea ping is responding fine, i just can't get into my config page :-/ i'm assuming thus far that this is porbably a hardware specific issue because my internet connection/sharing over my local network works fine | 05:28 |
| melow01 | ultraparadigm, sure thing. Ubuntu Studio has a bunch of audio apps too | 05:28 |
| Prodego | spwelton: #python | 05:28 |
| user123 | codebx, I installed it, but It didnt do anything, I think I need to get the audio driver because the card is not detected | 05:32 |
| spwelton | Prodego: thanks | 05:32 |
| ruien | t_dsunn: hmm, what about "telnet 192.168.1.1 80" .. in otherwords, can you at least connect to its http server? | 05:32 |
| sudipta | how i enable visual effect in ubuntu 8.04 | 05:33 |
| codebx | user123, virtualbox has an emulated set of hardware (audio, network, etc) so you don't have to get specific drivers for your actual hardware; you just use the guest additions | 05:33 |
| codebx | user123, you should reboot after you install the guest additions, and see if your audio works then | 05:33 |
| user123 | codebx, I already did it, but it doesnt work :( | 05:33 |
| codebx | user123, i failed you... oh noes D: | 05:34 |
| user123 | codebx, well, thank you, I appreciate your help | 05:34 |
| codebx | user123, does it say there's no playback audio device when you try and play sounds or what happens? | 05:34 |
| user123 | codebx, exactly | 05:34 |
| TLUL | 0.0 there are a lot of people in here </offtopic> | 05:34 |
| codebx | user123, just to clarify, your normal operating system (host) is ubuntu, and you're running windows via virtualbox, right? i can help you research for a few minutes | 05:35 |
| TLUL | Is this channel being affected by the spambots? | 05:35 |
| t_dsunn | ruien: telnet is connecting no problem... | 05:35 |
| user123 | codebx, that is correct | 05:35 |

| greezmunkey | loFoolishOwl, if ping google.com fails, check your DNS settings | 05:39 |
| Dr_Willis | FoolishOwl: try browsing based on teh sites ip address not name. if ip# works - then it points to a DNS issue | 05:39 |

| ruien | is there a way to reconfigure the options set when I first ran "aptitude install linux-image-generic"? I am specifically trying to modify the kernel command line (I am using GRUB. /boot/grub/grub.conf does not exist) | 05:44 |
| popC | let me get my video card info | 05:44 |
| FoolishOwl | Okay, I couldn't connect to Web pages via IP address, so I suppose it isn't a DNS issue. | 05:45 |
| popC | ati radeion | 05:46 |
| thinkertinker | same here popC | 05:46 |
| FoolishOwl | For instance, I tried http://216.34.181.45/ and it said at the bottom, "waiting for slashdot.org," or something like that. But the page never loads. | 05:46 |
| greezmunkey | FoolishOwl, have you tried traceroute yet? | 05:47 |
| popC | most of the post on the google forms are about nvidias | 05:47 |
| popC | actually all of them | 05:47 |
| sudipta | what is dropbox | 05:47 |
| FoolishOwl | greezmunkey, yes. I get pretty much the same results, regardless of how I connect. It's just that the Web page won't display. | 05:47 |
| FoolishOwl | I've tried Firefox and Epiphany, both. | 05:48 |
| greezmunkey | FoolishOwl, so traceroute works? | 05:48 |
| FoolishOwl | I read a lot of references to issues with IPv6, but I don't think that's the issue, as I've tried all the suggested fixes. | 05:48 |

| Dr_Willis | futurama140: check the wine app database and the 100000+ tips it has for that game.. GOOD luck | 05:50 |

| FoolishOwl | I've tried watching the packets with wineshark, not that I'm particularly good with it, but I can't see anything going wrong. | 05:50 |
| Dr_Willis | jolaren: the directory /etc/rc2.d is not empty - there should be a dozen or so files in there | 05:51 |
| futurama140 | Dr_Willis: ill try and figure out how to do that. thanks | 05:51 |
| sargento | Phoxis, try the command glxgears, you must see a gears moving, to see if you have correct your graphic configuration | 05:51 |
| tarski | futurama140: http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 05:51 |

| dublued2 | sargento: shold i restart after installing before i reinstall? | 06:09 |
| FoolishOwl | greezmunkey, okay. Any idea what the problem could be? | 06:09 |
| sargento | dublued2, I'm not quite sure but in Linux you don't supposed to, is not Win-does | 06:09 |
| dublued2 | sargento: reinstalling it worked | 06:09 |
| greezmunkey | FoolishOwl, so Internet IP works, DNS resolves, and only your Browsers fail? Is that about it? | 06:10 |
| sargento | dublued2, excellent, congratulations! | 06:10 |

| futurama140 | is there an IRC chat where i can get help for wine? i have no god damn clue how any of this works and reading technical manuals on websites all over the place isnt giving me any help at all | 06:10 |
| greezmunkey | thinkertinker, ooh, good question! | 06:11 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: wine basics.. 'wine /path/to/gameinstaller.exe' and hope it works | 06:11 |
| sargento | dublued2, Did you look for it on the compatible list? | 06:11 |
| greezmunkey | thinkertinker, FoolishOwl did mention that he tried a couple of browsers though... | 06:11 |
| FoolishOwl | thinkertinker, Firefox is set to "use system proxy settings" | 06:11 |
| futurama140 | Dr_Willis: it doesnt work. the game tries to start then the wow crash reporter says it has a fatal error. | 06:12 |

| thinkertinker | greezmunkey sorry i dint see him mentioning..though | 06:12 |
| dublued2 | sargento: yes i will look into that, thank you. i will reboot now. | 06:12 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: check teh wine app database to see what version of wine they suggest and what tweaks then. thats the hard part of wine. You may need to install the latest wine. or do some other wine config tweaks | 06:12 |
| greezmunkey | thinkertinker, no that's good, you guys take it from here, I'll sit back. | 06:12 |
| sargento | myn, try Compiz Fusion | 06:12 |

| sargento | so, sudo mkdir /media/pendrive, for example. | 06:24 |
| Prajwal | i added that to my .desktop | 06:24 |
| greezmunkey | FoolishOwl, good testing :) Let me check a few things here... | 06:25 |
| sargento | Prajwal, I don't know what is your issue, can you explain it again? | 06:25 |

| ruien | I have just gotten a new ubuntu server OS installed onto a network server which i do not have KVM access too (only bootstrap through SSH). Can anyone recommend a good image-based backup method or tool to save the partition in its current form? Should I consider dd if i first zeroed-out the drive? | 06:27 |
| Prajwal | i was making a desktop entry | 06:27 |
| Prajwal | and even it doesnt run from my termina | 06:27 |
| Prajwal | terminal* | 06:27 |
| FoolishOwl | ninjaslim, look in the repository at the packages hfsplus and hfsutils. | 06:27 |
| sargento | Prajwal, what are you planning to do that for | 06:28 |
| Prajwal | i have added a new tool and wanted a desktop entry for it | 06:28 |
| Prajwal | its a exe file | 06:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Prajwal: im not sure that gksudo ./wine is a proper thing to do. | 06:29 |
| sargento | candy, what is your pendrive dev path? | 06:29 |
| greezmunkey | FoolishOwl, check your .bashrc file in your home folder for anything resembling "export http_proxy=" | 06:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Prajwal: make a script that does the proper commands perhaps then make a launcher to run the script | 06:29 |
| candy | sargento, /dev/sdd1 * 1 1023 983072 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) | 06:29 |
| Prajwal | Dr_Willis like ? | 06:29 |
| FoolishOwl | greezmunkey, nope. | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Prajwal: make a script that does those commands to cd, and run the app.. then try running the whole script as root/gksudo - it will be easiuer to trouble shoot | 06:30 |
| sargento | You can try this. env WINEPREFIX="Ubuntu Path here" wine "C:\Windows Path here" | 06:30 |
| greezmunkey | FoolishOwl, ok check in /etc/bash.bashrc for the same... | 06:31 |
| Prajwal | Dr_Willis i did the same | 06:31 |
| sargento | candy, Did you create the folder in /media ? | 06:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Prajwal: start breakingit down then to each aprt and see where its failing i guess. | 06:31 |

| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: what are you trying to dual boot? | 06:44 |
| MauritianGuy | i successfully dual boot XP pro and Ubuntu | 06:44 |
| MauritianGuy | i ventured into adding fedora 10 to the list which is getting tricky for me | 06:44 |
| disappearedng | why did my firefox 3.6 roll back to 3.5.7? that is so annoying | 06:44 |
| MauritianGuy | now i used the live cd i burnt for fedora | 06:45 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: apparantly with Karmic/9.10's Grub 2, because of the way it's been done, can't dual/multi boot with other distros | 06:45 |
| MauritianGuy | i c | 06:45 |
| sargento | candy, don't use the name you got from dev. You can create, options, pendrive1, usbflash, myusbdevice, etc, in order, it shoud be "/media/pendrive1","/media/usbflash" or "/media/myusbdevice" for example | 06:45 |
| thinkertinker | disappearedng did you run the correct firefox executable?the 3.6 one you downloaded? | 06:46 |
| sudipta | shazbotmcmurder:i have tried that but a message "destop effect could not be enabled"message popped | 06:46 |
| MauritianGuy | what if i modify the boot.ini file in wx pro would that make any changes | 06:46 |
| sargento | MauritianGuy, you need to configure GRUB | 06:46 |
| sudipta | shazbotmcmurder:hello r u there? | 06:46 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: anyway dual booting or triple or whatever booting OS's isn't that great really, you could pick a distro and virtual machine others, with enough RAM and such | 06:46 |
| candy | sargento, ok i did then? | 06:46 |
| disappearedng | no I did an "upgrade" within firefox | 06:46 |
| disappearedng | and now that option is gone | 06:47 |
| MauritianGuy | coz i am sure i did install fedora on a specific partition but i did not install the boot loader as it was threatning to erease the previous bootloader which was the ubuntu one | 06:47 |
| sargento | candy, what's the name of your dir you just create? | 06:47 |
| candy | sargento, usbflash | 06:47 |
| ShazbotMcMurder | sudipta, yes. | 06:47 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: there's the old Grub in the repo as an option, Fedora's Grub could boot up Ubuntu as well. The Windows boot loader can be edited some how to boot up Linux distros. | 06:47 |
| ShazbotMcMurder | I don't know why - do you have the video card drivers installed | 06:47 |
| sargento | candy, Please retype the /dev dir is your pendrive | 06:48 |

| MauritianGuy | looks like i am going to learn a bit more bout the old brub | 06:49 |
| Hex00010 | im trying to play a movie | 06:49 |
| Hex00010 | but i keep on getting this error | 06:49 |
| Hex00010 | Could not open location; you might not have permission to open the file. | 06:49 |
| faileas | lol | 06:49 |
| Myrtti | sudipta: youu don't. | 06:49 |
| FoolishOwl | And gmail, through https. But other https sites didn't work, so I'm not sure what that's about. | 06:49 |
| sebsebseb | sudipta: you would have to go through 8.10 and 9.04 first, also 9.04 to 9.10 upgrade might go wrong. Might as well stay on 8.04 and wait untill 10.04 released at the end of April, which is the next Long Term Support release, which you will then be able to upgrade directly to. No Ext4 or Grub 2 as far as I know on upgrade, but don't need those anyway. | 06:49 |
| candy | sargento, then? | 06:49 |
| superlinux | HEX ... can you check if you have perms on the file | 06:49 |
| faileas | FoolishOwl: could it be a dns issue? | 06:49 |
| greezmunkey | FoolishOwl, you may have to post this in the forums, I am out of options :( | 06:49 |
| thinkertinker | greezmunkey tried wget ing an http page? | 06:49 |
| sargento | MauritianGuy, you can modify it when you install any other OS | 06:49 |
| FoolishOwl | greezmunkey, thanks for trying. | 06:49 |
| MauritianGuy | is it possible to add fedora to the ubunto boot loader ? | 06:50 |
| sargento | candy, now use the mount command | 06:50 |
| greezmunkey | thinkertinker, address that to FoolishOwl :) | 06:50 |
| ShapeShifter499 | hi | 06:50 |
| sudipta | how can i get a free copy of ubuntu10.04? | 06:50 |
| FoolishOwl | faileas, I'm pretty sure it's not a dns issue. | 06:50 |
| faileas | MauritianGuy: short answer - it should add itself on install. | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: at this time.. you dont | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: when its released you can | 06:50 |
| Tesssa | i upgraded from 9.4 to 9.10 and it works perfectly for me | 06:50 |
| faileas | sudipta: wait for it to come out, and make a shipit request. | 06:50 |
| superlinux | sudipta did you check ubuntu site .l. they ship to your addrss | 06:50 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I'm serious about learning programing, anyone know where to go for help? | 06:50 |
| thinkertinker | foolishowl tried wget ing an http page? | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: unless you just want to download it. | 06:51 |
| ziroday | ShapeShifter499: ##programming :) | 06:51 |
| superlinux | \quit | 06:51 |
| * faileas wonders if they tightened the rules for shipit yet | 06:51 | |
| Hex00010 | i think so | 06:51 |
| FoolishOwl | thinkertinker, just did for a couple of pages. It seemed to work. | 06:51 |
| sebsebseb | Tesssa: well for quite a lot of people no problem, but also quite a lot of people got issues | 06:51 |
| Dr_Willis | ShapeShifter499: pick a language.. google for tutorials. Start with python is a good idea | 06:51 |
| sargento | candy, you type. sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/usbflash | 06:51 |
| ShazbotMcMurder | ShapeShifter499, your local college | 06:51 |
| MauritianGuy | faileas, so when i get to the part where its telling me to choose bood loader do i choose the ubuntu bootloader or i choose the fedora one | 06:51 |
| sudipta | what r ubuntu long term projects? | 06:51 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ziroday: ah ha I knew there was a irc channel, I didn't put that second # sign | 06:51 |
| sebsebseb | !lts | sudipta | 06:52 |
| ubottu | sudipta: 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) | 06:52 |
| thinkertinker | FoolishOwl i think browsers are supposed to work when wget works | 06:52 |
| faileas | er,, MauritianGuy you can pick either | 06:52 |
| visitor1 | !Lucid | 06:52 |
| ubottu | 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 | 06:52 |
| MauritianGuy | so the fedora boot loader will give me the option to boot between each of the other OS | 06:52 |
| yaboo | how can I force ubuntu to install packages | 06:52 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: I think I'm a little young to get help or got to a class at my local collage | 06:52 |
| candy | sargento, i got this can't find /dev/sda1/media/usbflash/ in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 06:52 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: Fedora uses Grub and so yeah | 06:52 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: *go to a class | 06:52 |
| FoolishOwl | D'oh! I didn't check when I'm on the wired connection. Sorry. BRB. | 06:53 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: Fedora's boot loader can boot up Ubuntu and Windows | 06:53 |
| dov23 | Hi, I am running karmic on my thinkpad t400 and I am having funny issues with the single-quote and double-quote characters | 06:53 |
| ShazbotMcMurder | ShapeShifter499, how old are you? I'm pretty sure you can take a college class at about any age. | 06:53 |
| MauritianGuy | kool sebsebseb and faileas i will try that again | 06:53 |
| ShazbotMcMurder | If you can pay the fees, you can take the class... | 06:53 |
| sargento | candy, is not /dev/sda1/media/usbflash/, only /dev/sda1/ | 06:53 |
| dov23 | Is this a known issue? | 06:53 |
| c_nick | having troubles with the make file http://pastebin.ca/1772832 | 06:53 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: I'm 15 | 06:53 |
| xangua | yaboo: sudo apt-get install ¿¿ | 06:53 |
| MauritianGuy | so sebsebseb is does not matter that i choose the ubunto bootloaser or the fedora one as it will detect the other os and give me the option on startup | 06:53 |
| sudipta | i have installed vbox,but cpu ovehead increases?normal upon unistalling vbox.pls hlp..... | 06:53 |
| Prajwal | i dont think there are many people who use linux distros as thier Primary OS | 06:54 |
| MauritianGuy | am right sebsebseb and faileas | 06:54 |
| candy | sargento, same thing i got again... can't find /dev/sda1/ in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 06:54 |

| ShazbotMcMurder | ShapeShifter499, You're plenty old to take a college course. | 06:54 |
| === Hex00010 is now known as Hex0001 | ||
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: also if you end up using Fedora's Grub, you should be asking #fedora or #grub for help really | 06:54 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: really? | 06:54 |
| sargento | candy, plase make sure you are using the correct type form fdisk -l | 06:54 |
| Hex0001 | Does anyone else ever have any issues | 06:54 |
| Hex0001 | with there DVD not working? | 06:54 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: if it needs setting up | 06:54 |
| ShazbotMcMurder | ShapeShifter499, YES | 06:55 |
| MauritianGuy | sebsebseb, well i did partion properly and it did the instann when i came to choosing bootloader i did not choose anything i thaught it was possible to manually add an os from ubuntu boot loder | 06:55 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: do u know what steps I can take to get into a computer programing class | 06:55 |
| Prajwal | last night i did experience it Hex0001 | 06:55 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: ? | 06:55 |
| Prajwal | but got it worked after a restart | 06:55 |
| Hex0001 | im getting it now pra :( | 06:55 |
| MauritianGuy | i guess i will do that installation again as i haven't done any update on fedora | 06:55 |
| Hex0001 | i restareted it 5 times | 06:55 |
| sudipta | hwete to get docky from?does it need compiz to work? | 06:55 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: I thought Ubuntu's Grub 2 could be used to boot up other distros, but apparantly not | 06:55 |
| sudipta | where to get docky from?does it need compiz to work? | 06:55 |
| sebsebseb | !grub2 | MauritianGuy | 06:55 |
| ubottu | MauritianGuy: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 06:55 |
| Hex0001 | did u get the error | 06:56 |
| Hex0001 | Can not read file or permission thing? | 06:56 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: therws docky 'ppa' repos.. and it works best with compiz or a compositing window manager. | 06:56 |
| xangua | sudipta: you need composite | 06:56 |
| MauritianGuy | thanks u guys are realy a great help here i realy appreciate that | 06:56 |
| FoolishOwl | thinkertinker, wget didn't work. It stopped at "HTTP request sent, awaiting response..." | 06:56 |
| Prajwal | no i was copying some files from dvd and dvd drive stopped working | 06:56 |

| MauritianGuy | cheerz people | 06:56 |
| airtonix | sudipta, pretty sure I already gave you links to the site (which contain instructions how to get it) | 06:56 |
| Hex0001 | and it then give that error | 06:56 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: personally I woudn't bother having more than one distro psyicall installed. any other distro I would want, I would just virtual machine | 06:56 |
| sudipta | what r composite managers othe than compiz? | 06:56 |
| thinkertinker | FoolishOwl how are you connected to internet?are you behind proxy or something? | 06:57 |
| sargento | candy, the structure is "mount /DEVPATH /media/DIRYOUCREATED" and that's all. | 06:57 |
| Prajwal | did you try to run it Hex0001 ? | 06:57 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: metacity has the feature you can enable.. as can a few others | 06:57 |
| airtonix | sudipta, apt-cache search composite | 06:57 |
| MauritianGuy | i like that idea sebsebseb as well but i am just experimenting i will format and do it again as soon as i have done it | 06:57 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: I don't know if its THAT easy but I'll look into it | 06:57 |
| Hex0001 | well i put the movie in usually a thing pops up asking if u want to play it in windows media player i click ok | 06:57 |
| candy | sargento, i got it | 06:57 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: thanks for the info | 06:57 |
| Hex0001 | and then file permissions error thing pops up | 06:57 |
| MauritianGuy | i already run vmware on Win Xp | 06:57 |
| sargento | candy, Ok, please let me know if it worked. | 06:57 |
| sebsebseb | MauritianGuy: which one? Virtualbos is rather nice | 06:58 |
| sebsebseb | Virtualbox | 06:58 |
| Hex0001 | and now the movie player freezes | 06:58 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: thanks for the info | 06:58 |
| ShapeShifter499 | oops | 06:58 |

| c_nick | ok anyone.. makefile problems | 06:58 |
| FoolishOwl | thinkertinker, I've got a cable modem, and a wireless router connected to it. I've got an ethernet cable connecting the computer to the router. At the moment, I'm connected to it wirelessly. There's no trouble with the wireless connection. Both types of connection work in Windows. | 06:58 |
| Prajwal | error with the dvd | 06:58 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: I'm going to go to ##programming | 06:58 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: no idea what you mean.. | 06:58 |

| ShapeShifter499 | ShazbotMcMurder: sophmore | 06:59 |
| sargento | candy, I don't think that your mistakes are stupid, just mistakes. What's the result from doing what I told you? | 06:59 |
| GabrielSOE1 | :) hey all | 06:59 |
| ShazbotMcMurder | ShapeShifter499, talk to you 'counselor' first, then maybe your homeroom teacher, and if they think you are capable of taking a class they'd most likely love that you take a college class | 07:00 |
| FoolishOwl | thinkertinker, also, I'd had the computer directly connected to the cable modem, and that worked too. | 07:00 |

| ShapeShifter499 | Dr_Willis: or if I have someone I can ask for help | 07:03 |

| Dr_Willis | ShapeShifter499: you dont really learn programing by 'watching' people progarm. You learn it by doing it. :) then theres the deeper aspects of it.. but the basics/beginner stuff should be learnable from a few good books | 07:05 |
| venport | Anyone willing to give me a hand getting my new HD to auto mount on boot? | 07:05 |
| venport | I've been editing my fstab but it's not mounting | 07:05 |

| ascheel | venport, give us the fstab listing | 07:05 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Dr_Willis: I mean I learn better if someone shows "how" and talks about a bit, then lets me do it or copy what he/she did | 07:06 |

| ascheel | venport, pastebin! | 07:15 |
| ascheel | oh boy. | 07:15 |
| ascheel | ok, so /dev/sdb1 is *NOT* the new drive you just put in | 07:16 |
| venport | sorry again... | 07:16 |
| ascheel | it's your primary drive. | 07:16 |
| DrkMind | lol | 07:16 |
| Dr_Willis | RalphSpencer: iso files from what disk? | 07:16 |
| RalphSpencer | cd disks .. ones like ubuntu ? | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | RalphSpencer: Huh? you want to make an image of a cd/dvd optical disk? theres several ways to do that | 07:17 |
| venport | ok so who to i find where that drive is? | 07:17 |
| ascheel | venport: fdisk -l | 07:17 |
| ascheel | PASTEBIN | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | RalphSpencer: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=cd.iso bs=2048 | 07:18 |
| RalphSpencer | then please tell the least a painful way, doctor | 07:18 |
| RalphSpencer | wowoo that easy? | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | RalphSpencer: thats the normal way. I may have bs at the wrong spot | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | RalphSpencer: this is linux.. of COURSE its taht easy | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | if you dont use bs= the copy will be slow | 07:18 |
| ascheel | It's only difficult when it's Micro$oft | 07:18 |
| RalphSpencer | and bs ? | 07:18 |
| ascheel | RalphSpencer: bs = block size | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis | bs = block size | 07:19 |
| RalphSpencer | just let it to 2048? | 07:19 |
| venport | http://paste.ubuntu.com/366053/ | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis | dont go silly and use bs=1000000000000000000 or somthing | 07:19 |
| RalphSpencer | lol larger than the size of the disk | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis | anything over a specifc size is pointless. | 07:19 |
| straycat | i'm absolutely fed up with the constant windows updates | 07:19 |
| gheddy_zarc | hi Im trying to unzip a .gz file called Ubuntu.tgz.gz, I get an error saying; gzip: stdin: not in gzip format ,, any ideas | 07:20 |
| ascheel | venport: so you have 2 drives. sda and sdb. sda is your 1 TB drive. | 07:20 |
| Liquid-Silence | I am fed up with this vpn connection | 07:20 |
| straycat | who votes i just put ubuntu as my only os | 07:20 |
| straycat | ? | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis | gheddy_zarc: using what command exactly? | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis | !info unp | gheddy_zarc | 07:20 |
| ubottu | gheddy_zarc: unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.15 (karmic), package size 10 kB, installed size 76 kB | 07:20 |
| roccity_ | straycat: have you tried gunzip | 07:20 |
| gheddy_zarc | double clicking on it from nautilus Dr_Willis | 07:20 |
| brandonban6 | I swapped out my mobo, but did not re-install Linux; Is there a repair scan or something I should do to tell linux about the hardware changes? | 07:20 |
| straycat | no clue i'm really familiar with 9.10 tho | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis | gheddy_zarc: tgz.gz is redundant. try the command line unp command.. and perhaps rename it to just .tgz | 07:20 |
| ascheel | venport: add a new line to your fstab: /dev/sda1 /media/MediaV1 ext3 default 0 0 | 07:20 |
| mneptok | gheddy_zarc: what is the source of this file? what do you believe is in it? | 07:20 |
| venport | ah that's the drive i need to add. | 07:20 |
| gheddy_zarc | ok ta Dr_Willis | 07:21 |
| roccity_ | straycat: try gunsip Ubuntu.tgz.gz | 07:21 |
| gheddy_zarc | mneptok its part of a suite to get a usb stick modem going | 07:21 |
| venport | thanks ascheel, i'll give that a try. (and sorry about the copy\paste issues) | 07:21 |
| roccity_ | straycat: sorry gunzip | 07:21 |
| straycat | ok i will give it a look | 07:21 |
| ascheel | wait | 07:22 |
| straycat | will i be able to run just that or do i have to partition? | 07:22 |
| ascheel | if you want to unpack a .tgz file: tar xvzf filename.tgz | 07:22 |
| ascheel | straycat: are you trying to install 9.10? | 07:22 |
| roccity_ | straycat: depends what your untarring it to? | 07:22 |
| roccity_ | straycat: are you using windows | 07:23 |
| straycat | yea i'm trying to run just 9.10 and i have xp right now | 07:23 |
| gheddy_zarc | that worked Dr_Willis I can open the archive now thanks | 07:23 |
| ascheel | straycat: download the .iso file, burn it to CD, then boot to it | 07:23 |
| roccity_ | straycat: if you are then the best thing is to use ubi if you want to keep windows | 07:23 |
| roccity_ | wubi | 07:23 |
| ascheel | straycat: let's start from the top. You're in Windows, you want Linux. Do you want to keep Windows? | 07:23 |
| jmp_ | hi to everybody | 07:24 |
| straycat | i was just wanting to know if i'll be happy with just unbuntu | 07:24 |
| straycat | i don't need windows for anything. i just don't know if people have had success just running 9.10 | 07:24 |
| jolaren | straycat; that's like asking the guy who makes your pizza what pizza is the best ;P | 07:24 |
| cheeky | hi, | 07:24 |
| ascheel | straycat: then do this for a test. Download the .iso, burn the image to CD (deepburner from deepburner.com will do it, it's free) and you can load Ubuntu without affecting your current Windows installation, you can try it out before doing an install | 07:24 |
| === cheeky is now known as ^cheeky | ||
| ascheel | straycat: the install is done using the exact same CD | 07:24 |
| roccity_ | straycat: if you want to do documents browsing and not pay atech to look at your computer everytime it gets some malware then yes | 07:24 |
| venport | ascheel may i ask why /media and not /mnt? I know ubuntu addes all usb drives and cd\dvd to media, is that the reason? | 07:25 |
| roccity_ | if you want games it's best to dual boot | 07:25 |
| ascheel | venport: because it's a force of habit. Mount it wherever you want. | 07:25 |
| RalphSpencer | Dr_Willis, never thought its all that easy in linux .. in windows you sit with google looking for what you want in linux you just do it :) | 07:25 |
| Supertanker | Hi; I just uploaded Ubuntu 9.10 to my computer after running Debian for a few years. Everything works perfect--kudos to all the volunteers!--except for sound. My Audgidy 2 refueses to make more than a few crackles and buzzes. Any ideas? | 07:25 |
| Supertanker | install* | 07:25 |
| ascheel | !audigy | Supertanker | 07:25 |
| straycat | ok one more question. if i have a 2gb laptop can i dual boot? | 07:25 |
| venport | ascheel: oh ok. i was just trying to understand. | 07:25 |
| jmp_ | do anybody know a channel for C++programming | 07:26 |
| Supertanker | ascheel, was that supposed to get the bot to tell me something? | 07:27 |
| straycat | roccity? | 07:27 |
| ascheel | Supertanker: it was supposed to haha. Instead ubottu told me it didn't know anything about it | 07:27 |
| straycat | i had one question if you could answer | 07:27 |
| ascheel | straycat: 2gb drive or 2gb of RAM? | 07:27 |
| venport | it gave me an error when i did the mount -a... i've added my fstab just in case that is helpful... | 07:27 |
| venport | http://paste.ubuntu.com/366056/ | 07:27 |
| straycat | drive | 07:28 |
| ^cheeky | hi, has anyone installed xbmc, with the aeon skin, ifso , did you guis, use the git-core close methoed or just unzip the aeon conytent to the xbmc-skins dir? sorry kinda confused, ? | 07:28 |
| Supertanker | ascheel, I think I found a post about it | 07:28 |
| Supertanker | Thanks for your help though :) | 07:28 |
| ascheel | venport: what did you format the drive with? | 07:28 |
| ascheel | venport: what filesystem? | 07:28 |
| ascheel | ^cheeky: please ask that question in #xbmc | 07:28 |
| GabrielSOE_ | hey all, is it possible to update gnome environment without reinstalling ubuntu? | 07:28 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: do you want to go from Kubuntu to Ubuntu or what? | 07:29 |
| venport | ext3 | 07:29 |
| ascheel | venport: I gave you bad advice. Change 'default' to 'defaults' in /etc/fstab | 07:30 |
| venport | ah | 07:30 |
| venport | thanks | 07:30 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: I don't understand, I mean when I have an earlier version of gnome can i update it without reinstalling the system? | 07:30 |
| gheddy_zarc | whats t mean when Im in terminal do an "ls" in a folder and some items(.deb packages) come up in red ? | 07:30 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: what version of Ubuntu are you on? | 07:31 |
| Supertanker | There we go, fixed it ascheel. I used this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-no-sound-sound-blaster-audigy-after-upgrading-from-ubuntu-9-04-to-9-10.html | 07:31 |
| Supertanker | Thanks much again :) | 07:31 |
| ascheel | hehe, I didn't do anything, but you're welcome. | 07:32 |
| venport | ascheel, that seemed to work not to reboot and see if it holds. Thanks again. | 07:32 |
| ascheel | venport | 07:32 |
| venport | yes | 07:32 |
| ascheel | if you used mount -a, then you're good to go | 07:32 |
| ascheel | mount -a does the same thing as rebooting as far as mounted drives go | 07:32 |
| venport | i did. and it's hwoing up on a df that should be good enough? if so cool | 07:32 |
| benjgvps | Does anyone here use hotmail in Evolution? I've set it up according to the numorous guides out there, though it just gives me the error: Error while fetching mail | 07:32 |
| ascheel | yep, you got it venport. :) Congrats on your extra TB of storage. | 07:33 |
| venport | And leaving windows. | 07:34 |
| ascheel | nice. :) I recently dropped Windows from all 4 of my PCs as well. | 07:34 |
| mybluevan | gheddy_zarc: apparently red - archive (or broken symbolic link) | 07:35 |
| benjgvps | I am forced away from Windows on my netbook, having to use Ubuntu isn't my first choice, though I need this laptop working :) | 07:35 |
| benjgvps | Now if only I could get my darned mail working | 07:35 |
| venport | I have one windows box left, and that's for my iTunes and audible accounts. but i plan to remote PC into them when needed. (that way i don;t have to reboot into a different OS) | 07:35 |
| Dr_Willis | GabrielSOE_: Hmm.. You can update/upgrade using teh package manager.. so not sure what you mean | 07:35 |
| ascheel | venport: screw iTunes. mp3 all the way. | 07:35 |
| ascheel | venport, another solution is to use VirtualBox and run windows in that! | 07:36 |
| Dr_Willis | benjgvps: i wouldent put it past hotmail to purposly break things so it cant work. | 07:36 |
| venport | Yeah, but i have an iphone and more than a year left on the contract. I don't buy from their but need it for iphone updates | 07:36 |
| ascheel | venport: touche. I still recommend VirtualBox | 07:36 |
| venport | I'll take a look at it. | 07:37 |
| venport | I wish wine could run iTunes... but that will never happen | 07:37 |
| eagles0513875 | hey guys im just wondering is dapper edgy and feisty still supported? | 07:37 |
| ascheel | Hardy Heron is the Long Term Release version, eagles0513875 | 07:38 |
| eagles0513875 | damn it | 07:38 |
| eagles0513875 | :( | 07:38 |
| ascheel | why? What's the problem? | 07:38 |
| eagles0513875 | xen-tools is using outdated versions of ubuntu | 07:38 |
| eagles0513875 | :( | 07:38 |
| ascheel | ah, gotcha | 07:38 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: ubuntu 9.10 | 07:39 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: what was that a response to? | 07:39 |
| ascheel | Oh, gotcha. I asked that awhile ago. | 07:40 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: the version I'm running | 07:40 |
| ascheel | Ok, so which version of Gnome are you on right now? | 07:40 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: the version I'm running 9.10 | 07:40 |
| ascheel | Which version of gnome, not which version of Ubuntu | 07:40 |
| jmp_ | do anybody know a channel for C++ programming | 07:41 |
| sudipta | can i enable 3d desktop without compiz or beryl? | 07:41 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: the version I'm running 2.28.1 | 07:41 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: so you need to upgrade gnome? To which version? Or do you just need to reinstall? What problem are you having? | 07:41 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: Idon't really have a problem, I just want to know how do I install or reinstall Gnome or upgrade a version without reinstalling the system | 07:42 |
| eagles0513875 | jmp_: there is a c++ channel here on freenode | 07:42 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, which one | 07:43 |
| jolaren | how do I ensure that nvpau is working correctly? | 07:43 |
| eagles0513875 | jmp_: type /join c++ | 07:44 |
| eagles0513875 | unless your question is related to the language on ubuntu | 07:44 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, ok | 07:44 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: if you want to reinstall gnome, sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome But why do you need to reinstall it? You got settings problems? | 07:44 |
| Achab | hi | 07:44 |
| Supertanker | I totally forgot; how can I specify more than two virtual desktups with Ubuntu? | 07:44 |
| ascheel | Supertanker: right-click the icon in the lower right corner and add more collumns or rows | 07:45 |
| Achab | I need help on apt-get crashed | 07:45 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: not really just wanted to know how it's done. just incase | 07:45 |
| Supertanker | ascheel, ah, thank you | 07:45 |
| Supertanker | Sorry, I'm totally used to my old setup | 07:45 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: reinstallations are rarely needed. If you needed to reset the settings in your login, just delete the .gconf directory in your home directory. Boom, factory setup. | 07:45 |
| Supertanker | I was using XFCE and could just mousewheel-scroll over the desktop to have it change between workspaces | 07:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Supertanker: yea - i think that feature got removed from gnome some how | 07:46 |
| greezmunkey | Ubuntu is more fun than a barrel full of monkeys! | 07:46 |
| ascheel | Supertanker, I use Ctrl-Alt-MouseDrag or I think there are other hotkeys, but I don't remember what | 07:46 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, I don't know how tell | 07:46 |
| Supertanker | Dr_Willis, drat :/ | 07:46 |
| Supertanker | Well, is there a keyboard shortcut? | 07:46 |
| Supertanker | Oh, wait, here's the keyboard utility | 07:46 |
| eagles0513875 | jmp_: ? | 07:46 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, tell me where shall I enter join C++ | 07:47 |
| ascheel | jmp_: /list | 07:47 |
| eagles0513875 | jmp_: where u type to talk to me | 07:47 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: Thanks m8 | 07:47 |
| ShapeShifter499 | going to goi | 07:47 |
| ShapeShifter499 | *go | 07:47 |
| ShapeShifter499 | bye | 07:47 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: you got it | 07:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Supertanker: compiz has a feature where you just mouse over and it changes.. (a little too senesitive) | 07:47 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: (: | 07:48 |
| ruien | Is a big tarball of all the files on a system partition a 'safe' way to make a backup of a drive? (The drive is mounted in readonly mode. I don't need the MBR). Theoretically could I later dump this into a raw partition, configure the bootloader, and everything would work OK? | 07:48 |
| ascheel | ruien: a tarball is a really ghetto backup. I recommend rsync | 07:48 |
| Supertanker | ruien, I did that once. It worked. That's all I can really say. | 07:49 |
| ruien | ascheel: i have used rsync.. but in this case how is it any different? | 07:49 |
| Supertanker | I <3 Rsync | 07:49 |
| ascheel | rsync ensures file integrity. tarball does not | 07:49 |
| ascheel | If you don't mind if a file goes corrupt, tarball away | 07:49 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: great help. may ask another question? | 07:49 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, C++ no such channel | 07:50 |
| ascheel | chances of corruption? low. Chances of corruption with rsync? nonexistent unless by an external source | 07:50 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: ask away | 07:50 |
| eagles0513875 | jmad980: yes there is | 07:50 |
| ruien | oh right good point. But the theory is OK -- copy all of the files on a RO partition and that should be good enough. I don't NEED an "image-based backup". Right? | 07:50 |
| eagles0513875 | whoops wrong person | 07:50 |
| eagles0513875 | i mean jmp_ there is | 07:50 |
| eagles0513875 | i was just in there | 07:50 |
| ascheel | corrupt, ruien. YMMV | 07:50 |
| eagles0513875 | jmp_: is your nick registered | 07:50 |
| ascheel | oops, I meant correct. not corrupt. | 07:50 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, yes | 07:51 |
| ruien | right, ok. Thanks guys | 07:51 |
| eagles0513875 | jmp_: are you identified | 07:51 |
| GabrielSOE_ | what is the equivalent of "Active Directory" in Linux? and is there any? | 07:51 |
| jmp_ | jmp_ /join C++ | 07:51 |
| ascheel | GabrielSOE_: ldap | 07:51 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, no | 07:51 |
| ascheel | !ldap | GabrielSOE_ | 07:51 |
| ubottu | GabrielSOE_: LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. For more information, installation instructions and getting clients to authenticate via LDAP see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer | 07:51 |
| eagles0513875 | jmp_: identify yourself then try join again | 07:51 |
| strayhyena | hello | 07:52 |
| om26er | !hi | strayhyena | 07:53 |
| ubottu | strayhyena: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 07:53 |
| jmp_ | eagles0513875, I got it thanks | 07:53 |
| eagles0513875 | no problem jmp_ | 07:53 |
| ruien | ascheel: wait... so how do I make a tarball with rsync? ultimately i do want a single compressed file, utilizing rsync's data verification along the way? | 07:54 |
| GabrielSOE_ | ascheel: great thanks, I'm off reading (: | 07:54 |
| strayhyena | Is it possible to do a batch unrar with the command line? i'm wanting to have all files in the subdirectories of the current directory to be unrared | 07:54 |
| ascheel | ruien: rsync doesn't make a tarball. It copies the files individually, every single block being compared against checksums ensuring integrity | 07:54 |
| ascheel | strayhyena: find . -iname "*.rar" -exec unrar x {} \; | 07:55 |
| ascheel | good luck, GabrielSOE_ | 07:55 |
| ruien | ascheel: right, so i move all the files over to another directory, but i can't verify that the directory tars up without any error.. so doesn't that defeat the purpose? | 07:55 |
| ascheel | ruien: rsync doesn't tar | 07:55 |
| Dr_Willis | thers also that 'fsarchiver' tool that can copy/backup/verify, but its not in the repos (yet) thers a a PPA for it | 07:56 |
| ascheel | ruien: it copies. It makes exact copies of one directory to a location of your choice. the beauty of it is you can rsync over a network, even over an ssh connection maintaining security during the transfer | 07:56 |
| strayhyena | ascheel: wow, thank you very much! | 07:56 |
| ascheel | strayhyena: you're welcome, good sir. I recommend reading up on the find command | 07:56 |
| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis, PPA ?? | 07:56 |
| Quan-Time | greezmunkey: PPA is just a "repository link" of sorts | 07:57 |
| eagles0513875 | has anyone gotten ubuntu working with xen | 07:57 |
| ruien | ascheel: i know. rsync copies the files to another hard drive. but in the process of making that ultimate tarball out of the verified files, i still run the same risk of file corruption.. right? | 07:57 |
| eagles0513875 | as a xen guest | 07:57 |
| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis, Got it, are you following the rsync thread here? | 07:57 |
| ascheel | ruien: that's why you don't tarball them. | 07:57 |
| ascheel | ruien: is there a need to tarball them? | 07:57 |
| tucemiux | anyone knows of an app that will convert mov to wmv? | 07:58 |
| ascheel | tarballs aren't backups. They're used for file dissemination | 07:58 |
| ruien | ascheel: well, yes.. i want it compressed. that's the point. | 07:58 |
| ascheel | k, then use a tarball. *shrug* | 07:58 |
| Dr_Willis | greezmunkey: barely :) i just copy to usb hd.. i rarely do image/system type backups.restores i just do reinstalls and move configs back | 07:58 |
| greezmunkey | RE: rsync, Is it possible to store Windows files onto a Ubuntu server via rsync? | 07:58 |
| strayhyena | ascheel: i've tried using find often but the amount of options is a little overwhelming, i should start sending the help output to a file and read it with gedit | 07:58 |
| ascheel | greezmunkey: yes there are windows executables | 07:58 |
| ruien | ascheel: thanks for the info though; appreciated. | 07:59 |
| === simple_ is now known as simplechat | ||
| === jeanre is now known as Liquid-Work | ||
| ascheel | strayhyena: if you have questions with find or other shell commands, the folks in #bash are awful helpful | 07:59 |
| greezmunkey | ascheel, I'll check into it, thanks :) | 07:59 |
| ascheel | ruien: My advice is if you want a reliable backup, don't use tarballs if you're talking about gigs and gigs of data. | 07:59 |
| jolaren | Whenever trying to install i.e mplayer in ubuntu it removed myth-frontend etc.. how do resolve this? The screen is all green without vdpau | 07:59 |
| ubuntu | Hello all | 08:01 |
| ubuntu | some one please help me | 08:01 |
| ascheel | !ask | ubuntu | 08:01 |
| ubottu | ubuntu: 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. :-) | 08:01 |
| parsaakbari | How can i give myself permission to edit all files on the system? | 08:01 |
| ascheel | !sudo | parsaakbari | 08:01 |
| ubottu | parsaakbari: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 08:01 |
| ubuntu | i am unable to install ubuntu 9.10 | 08:02 |

| tomatoes7 | is 9.04 more stable than 9.10? | 08:05 |
| Dr_Willis | tomatoes7: depends. | 08:05 |
| error404notfound | i see a lot of dos-IP-ADD-RESS-HERE files in /tmp, does that mean that i am getting DOS attacks from those IPs? | 08:05 |
| ascheel | tomatoes7: both are stable. Both have minor issues. My advice is to go 9.10 | 08:05 |
| Dr_Willis | i dont have any stablity issues in 9.10 | 08:05 |
| ubuntu | actually i have already installed 9.10 on my pc | 08:05 |
| ubuntu | first time there's no problem | 08:05 |
| ascheel | error404notfound: no. the tmp directory is a place where programs just store temporary files. | 08:06 |

| greezmunkey | RE: rsync, Pretty cool, it was already installed, and it works! | 08:06 |
| ascheel | greezmunkey: it's an incredible program. :) | 08:06 |
| greezmunkey | ascheel, I'm diggin it. | 08:06 |
| ascheel | greezmunkey: and there are some VERY knowledgable people in #rsync if you have specific questions about it | 08:07 |
| greezmunkey | ascheel, My win2K box is transferring files now! So far so good. | 08:07 |
| ascheel | Your Win2K already had rsync installed? Holy crap! That's awesome | 08:07 |
| ascheel | Kinda funny. :) They couldn't make their own so they had to use some *nix apps ported over. | 08:08 |
| greezmunkey | ascheel, No I had to do that, but it was already on this Ubuntu box. | 08:08 |
| error404notfound | ascheel, yes but dos-random-global-ips -here , thats makes it suspected | 08:08 |
| ascheel | Oh, ok. | 08:08 |
| greezmunkey | ascheel, just testing now, I'll figure it out later :) | 08:08 |
| ascheel | error404notfound: you need to find out what program is writing them out. use the 'file' and 'cat' commands on those files to see what's in them perhaps? Do a google search on some of the file names. | 08:08 |
| ubuntu | what is ubuntu-ubiquity | 08:09 |
| ascheel | greezmunkey: make sure you test the transfers with an md5sum just to double check, but I think you'll be good to go | 08:09 |
| ascheel | peace out all. Sleepy time for me | 08:09 |
| greezmunkey | ascheel, later, thatnks! | 08:09 |

| TopGear | I wanted to install XP, becouse vista sucs and I need windows for school. Well I did that but my grub went verry slow. I used "sudo reconfigure grub-pc" and installed it on /dev/hda/. Now when I want to boot, I need the xp cd in the cd player to boot. Otherwise I get an error. Something as "arch failure impedense" or something like that. | 08:23 |
| gheddy_zarc | Im tempted to try the software out on the 9.10 box,, but I dont wanna stuff it up eh mneptok becuase it runs so nicely and I use it for other stuff any how not net related | 08:23 |
| mneptok | gheddy_zarc: the fact they misspell "dependencies" does not give me a great amount of faith | 08:23 |
| mneptok | gheddy_zarc: they also make no mention fo the exact card models/makes this is supposed to support | 08:24 |

| TopGear | So, does anybody know? | 08:24 |
| TopGear | And on /dev/sdd it gives te same error | 08:24 |

| tucemiux | EagleWatch, just ignore TopGear and he'll go away on his own | 08:27 |
| TopGear | Sorry, I think I don't see them becouse of the in and out logging | 08:27 |
| TopGear | I am so sorry | 08:27 |
| TopGear | Can you please repeat them? | 08:27 |
| Dr_Willis | TopGear: why did you run 'sudo reconfigure grub-pc' instead of just 'sudo update-grub' ? | 08:28 |

| TopGear | And 30 seconds is verry long, even for the grub | 08:29 |
| TopGear | Dr_Willis: Were that the answers you needed? | 08:31 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, you mean you boot up your machine and it takes 30 seconds for you to see the grub menu where you can choose what OS to boot up into? | 08:31 |
| TopGear | yeah | 08:31 |
| TopGear | I see "Grub loading" and that takes 30 seconds | 08:31 |

| TopGear | Well, I thought that I would make it faster to put it on the new hda | 08:32 |
| EagleWatch | Dr_Willis, 6 HDDs :o | 08:32 |
| TopGear | But I was wrong, and messed up my grub | 08:33 |
| infid | anyone here install ubuntu 9.10 successfully on a dell zino HD mini desktop? | 08:33 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, so you added another hard drive and now grub is slow? | 08:33 |
| TopGear | yeah | 08:33 |
| TopGear | well, I added 2 hard drive's | 08:33 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, as Dr_Willis mentions, that can make grub slow | 08:34 |
| TopGear | oke | 08:34 |
| EagleWatch | TopGear, did you change master to slave or something like that | 08:34 |
| TopGear | now I know that | 08:34 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, can you boot up to all of your OS's fine? | 08:34 |
| Apokalepsis | People help, I liked the goods on Amazon, but they do not deliver it to Russia. | 08:34 |
| Apokalepsis | Please help. The help naturally not free-of-charge. I shall begin to cry well! | 08:34 |
| TopGear | I just putted in 2 new hard drives, and yeas, on my motherbord there came new masters | 08:35 |

| SuperDefenderX | Hey, Everyone. | 08:36 |

| ubottu | SuperDefenderX: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 08:36 |
| SuperDefenderX | Is there a GUI application that shows CPU temp in the repos? | 08:36 |
| SuperDefenderX | Or, maybe something similar to CPUz? | 08:37 |
| EagleWatch | SuperDefenderX, on your panels? | 08:37 |
| TopGear | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/f3727ed47 | 08:37 |
| tucemiux | SuperDefenderX, use "add/remove" and search for temperature | 08:37 |
| SuperDefenderX | Thanks. | 08:38 |
| TopGear | When I put the grub on sda or sdd, I get that error | 08:38 |
| TopGear | something with arch and failure and impedentiure | 08:38 |
| multwifi | does ubuntu by default allow connection to two wifi interfaces (one adhoc one infrast)? | 08:39 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, you have to install grub in sda in the Master Boot Record | 08:39 |
| SuperDefenderX | The temperature application in the repos doesn't work... :P | 08:39 |
| TopGear | "sudo grub-install /dev/sda --root-directory=/mnt" ? | 08:40 |
| iflema | !sensors | SuperDefenderX | 08:40 |
| ubottu | SuperDefenderX: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 08:40 |
| TopGear | "sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt" Well, first this one | 08:40 |
| SuperDefenderX | Oh, I was using Xsensors | 08:40 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, so you have ubuntu installed in sdd? | 08:40 |
| TopGear | That's right | 08:41 |
| TopGear | 1. "sudo mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt" | 08:41 |
| TopGear | 2. sudo grub-install /dev/sda --root-directory=/mnt | 08:41 |

| DrBelka | /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: No space left on device | 08:41 |
| DrBelka | collect2: ld returned 1 exit status | 08:41 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, you have to reinstall grub, I suggest you go to #grub and ask them how to reinstall grub and show them your link to paste bin | 08:41 |
| TopGear | then ill do that | 08:42 |
| tucemiux | DrBelka, sounds like you ran out of space | 08:42 |
| multwifi | DrBelka: you ran out of hard drive space | 08:42 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, if no one is in #grub right now try logging in to this channel at another time, you want to talk to someone who is familiar reinstalling grub | 08:43 |

| DrBelka | any ideas, tucemiux or multwifi? | 08:46 |
| tucemiux | TopGear, the trick here is to use the result you get from the find command: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351&highlight=reinstall+grub | 08:46 |
| TopGear | that ain't grub 2 I think | 08:46 |
| TopGear | that's legacy | 08:46 |
| multwifi | DrBelka: maybe upgrade to gcc/g++ 4.0 (latest version), the drive looped at all? | 08:47 |
| DrBelka | I do not know what it meant for the drive to be looped | 08:47 |
| DrBelka | *means | 08:47 |
| DrBelka | I think I am using gcc 4.3? | 08:47 |
| multwifi | DrBelka: hmm, thats the latest version; maybe try to SSH into a box at your university and compile on those machines? | 08:48 |
| TopGear | brb | 08:49 |
| DrBelka | yeah, I guess I could do that. Still, I wish i knew why it was doing that | 08:49 |
| DrBelka | its really weird because it does not give me that error again after a restart | 08:50 |
| xiong | I have just bought a Hawking HWUN3 WiFi USB Adapter. I have read the docs for installing the Win driver using ndiswrapper; they seem extremely fearsome, with result uncertain. I'm concerned that somehow I will get it wrong and not be able to get back to the internal wifi. For that matter, since the external adapter is not usually needed, I'd like to be able to switch back and forth -- if not conveniently, then not without recompi | 08:51 |
| xiong | ling my kernel. What's up with this? | 08:51 |
| xiong | BTW, I'm open to the suggestion "Take the Hawking back to the store and buy X instead." I don't like that but I'll listen. | 08:52 |
| tucemiux | DrBelka, from what directory youre running that command? Try unmounting your store partition | 08:53 |

| nimrod10 | xfact, go to the ubuntu menu -> system -> administration -> login window | 08:55 |
| mneptok | nimrod10: that does not exist in Karmic | 08:56 |
| xiong | mneptok, It's said to have superior pull -- not so much due to the dongle but to its antenna. If need be, I can even discard the supplied antenna and replace it with an even studlier one. | 08:56 |

| tgpraveen12 | lmcdona: BUG | 08:57 |
| xiong | mneptok, Yes. In theory, I suppose I could crack the case, locate the antenna connection, and futz up an external antenna port. Prefer external dongle. | 08:57 |
| tucemiux | bashca, can you post the error you are getting all in one line please | 08:57 |
| xfact | nimrod10: sorry, I am using Karmic and there is no such option like 'login window', and the 'login screen' only provides how to login ,and time interval between choosing user... etc. | 08:58 |

| tucemiux | bashca, at the end of the error it should give you directions on what to do next | 09:00 |
| xiong | mneptok, It does; it has two, in fact. I considered a card solution. The issue with that is that the slot is on the right side, conflicting physically with the external trackball. Not a total deal-killer but an annoyance. I have USB ports left, right, and rear. | 09:00 |
| bashca | tucemiux: nothing | 09:00 |
| xpo0f | bashca: better u using software-source and get the nearest mirror | 09:00 |
| mneptok | xiong: my Dell laptop came with a Broadcom half-mini PCI-E card which i immediately pulled and replaced with an Intel. i'm sitting 50 feet and 1 floor away from my AP and have a very, very strong signal. | 09:01 |
| xiong | s/slot/slots/ | 09:01 |

| xiong | mneptok, I don't doubt that any external solution *may* be superior to my current internal setup. I don't think, on the RF end, I'm going to be unhappy with the Hawking USB. This is a driver issue. | 09:02 |

| tucemiux | bashca, it seems you have your sources file wrong, comment everything under "#cannonical commercial repository" and then do an sudo apt-get update | 09:15 |
| gabriel_ | xpo0f: i already have that installed. | 09:15 |
| bashca | tucemiux: thanks | 09:15 |
| xpo0f | gabriel_: ok | 09:15 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: don't forget that HD (especially H.264) video playback is a very intensive procedure, you may need to use hardware acceleration from your graphics card to get acceptable performance | 09:16 |
| tucemiux | bashca, let me know if that helps, you will have to fix it though so you can use those repos | 09:16 |
| basanta_ | tucemiux, how did you know? | 09:16 |
| basanta_ | tucemiux, how did you know?:q | 09:16 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: yeah, and my geforce 8800GT is probably not used in ubuntu :( | 09:16 |
| tucemiux | basanta_, sorry, that message wasn't for you | 09:16 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: You do have the proprietary drivers installed, right? | 09:16 |
| xpo0f | gabriel_: apt-get install nvidia-common or u need to compile a kernel | 09:17 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: yes. which is why i can run compiz very smoothly. Disabling compiz doesn't make a differance for my playback performance though. | 09:17 |
| Callum_ | xpo0f: What are you talking about? You don't need to compile a kernel >_> | 09:17 |

| infid | my cpu started going to 100% for no apparent reason and ubuntu crashed by not letting me type or click anything, even tho the cursor still was movable. any idea what caused this? i didnt run anything extra or unsuaul. just firefox, and a gnome terminal | 09:18 |
| xpo0f | Callum_: only the idea, u can using kernelcheck to compile with nvidia driver | 09:18 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: MPlayer, MythTV and a few other media players support H.264, MPEG2 and other codec hardware acceleration on recent NVIDIA GPUs via libvdpau | 09:18 |

| faileas | infid: set up openssh-server, and the next time it happens,see if you can ssh in from another system, and check with top or htop, maybe? | 09:19 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: yes, well it said on some page that nvidia cards from 8000 series support vdpau, EXCLUDING for 8800! :( | 09:19 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: That depends on how old your 8800 is | 09:19 |
| infid | faileas: ok | 09:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. I got an early 8800gtsxxx | 09:20 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: I was going to try that nvpau option... then i read that 8800 doesn't support it... | 09:20 |
| Callum_ | gabirel_: AFAIK the 8800GT DOES support VDPAU, not sure though. Let me check | 09:20 |
| xiong | mneptok, I've had my look. I'd say it's almost certainly an internal wifi adapter behind that door. It's a C-Com; I'll run the numbers I got off it. | 09:20 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: as i said i have 8800GT | 09:20 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: Yes, the 8800GT does support VDPAU | 09:21 |
| Callum_ | The only other 8800 that supports it is the 8800GS | 09:21 |
| mneptok | xiong: so it's an internal PCI-E mini card, as best as you can tell? | 09:21 |
| gabriel_ | oh ok... so i just need to use mplayer with the vdpau flag then? i have nvidia 185 drivers | 09:21 |
| xpo0f | brb | 09:22 |
| Callum_ | Does anyone know if the MPlayer on Ubuntu repos has VDPAU support compiled in? | 09:22 |
| xiong | mneptok, I'm just about certain. Looks right. Has two thin cables going to it; I assume one is power/data and the other coax to the internal antenna. Perhaps there's a third cable out of sight; I didn't remove it. | 09:23 |
| mneptok | xiong: no, those are both antenna. the data and power are handled by the copper leads via the PCI bus | 09:23 |
| resjudicata | how do I get pdf files to open with evince instead of adobe acrobat without removing the later? | 09:23 |
| mneptok | xiong: last question. is it full-length like the image i showed you, or half-height? | 09:23 |
| xiong | mneptok, Dunno about the bus. It is secured by screws and standoffs; it doesn't seem to slot in to anything. | 09:24 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: yes, try the MPlayer on Ubuntu's repositories first...you will have to install a GUI frontend for MPlayer (like SMPlayer or gnome-mplayer) if you want to use it with a GUI though | 09:24 |

| mneptok | xiong: it's the exact same quality | 09:28 |
| ruien | ginbuntu: i am pretty sure dd only writes as long as imagefile and won't touch the rest of the data on /dev/sda1, but i'm not certain. | 09:28 |
| mneptok | xiong: it's still Intel, and instead of having 3 antenna leads that newer laptops use, it's got just the 2 you'll need. | 09:28 |
| xiong | mneptok, Forgive me for arguing from ignorance but I find it hard to believe that chipset is going to make a BIG difference vs changing antenna. | 09:28 |
| noname_ | hello | 09:28 |
| mneptok | xiong: the chipset has a driver. Intel provides excellent drivers directly to the Linux kernel. you can have a 40,000 foot tall antenna, and with a lousy driver, get lousy reception. | 09:29 |
| faileas | lol | 09:29 |
| mneptok | xiong: just ensure that Amazon vendor has a good return policy. test it out. it should provide far, far better reception. and if so, you have an internal solution that will work while on the road. | 09:30 |
| xiong | mneptok, You make a potent argument. | 09:31 |
| mneptok | xiong: alternatively, you could get a better +Db antenna for the AP | 09:31 |

| xiong | mneptok, Ah. I have no control over the AP. It's public wifi. | 09:33 |
| miha | !fsck | 09:34 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 09:34 |

| xiong | mneptok, I think you have given me an excellent solution, albeit it's Plan B: Discard Hawking hardware, buy *this* instead. I hope the driver install on it will not be Terrible. The issue may be less of installing the Intel driver and more of getting the C-Com driver out. | 09:37 |

| GabrielSOE_ | how do I restart computer using command line? | 09:53 |
| SirRedTooth | http://pastebin.com/m5a6b4baa | 09:53 |
| Flannel | GabrielSOE_: sudo shutdown -r now | 09:53 |
| SirRedTooth | would it be easier to run the thing that puts ubuntu on its own partition. | 09:53 |
| GabrielSOE_ | Flannel: Thanks m8 | 09:53 |
| BinaryMan | jamila: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager#Missing%20panel%20applet | 09:54 |
| jamila | ok | 09:54 |
| BinaryMan | GabrielSOE_: reboot works too | 09:54 |

| abo | Dr_willis, was it audacious? | 09:54 |

| SirRedTooth | Oh thanks. | 09:55 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 09:55 |
| Callum_ | SirRedTooth: Is /host your C: drive? | 09:55 |
| quietone | ndr01d: there is a gnucash channel on gimpnet | 09:55 |
| SirRedTooth | Yes | 09:55 |
| BinaryMan | so yeah | 09:55 |
| Callum_ | SirRedTooth: =) Good | 09:55 |
| ndr01d | yeah, i went there, no ones at home... | 09:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Callum_: so its allready mounted. :) | 09:55 |
| sobersabre | hi. I have a network of 2 computers (a,b). All the internet traffic comes via third computer (c), and I want to be able to count how much uploaded/downloaded each computer (a & b) | 09:55 |
| BinaryMan | i realized that i've been getting my video driver updates from the upstream git | 09:55 |
| BinaryMan | for like the last two months | 09:55 |
| sobersabre | from the internet. | 09:55 |
| SirRedTooth | Sorry if I am a newbie this is my first day using something other than windows | 09:55 |
| BinaryMan | gotta love the xorg-edgers ppa | 09:55 |
| BinaryMan | amazing nothing broke | 09:56 |
| Callum_ | Dr_Willis: Yes, it has to mount the NTFS partition somewhere to loop mount Ubuntu's filesystem image | 09:56 |
| Callum_ | SirRedTooth: It's fine, this is what this channel is for =) | 09:56 |
| * Dr_Willis votes to remove wubi from the next release. | 09:56 | |
| Callum_ | Dr_Willis: It's a good idea for people who can not partition | 09:56 |
| * rww votes to remove Dr_Willis from the next release. | 09:56 | |
| Dr_Willis | Id rather seem them use virtualbox | 09:56 |
| BinaryMan | I've been more of a VMware guy | 09:57 |
| Dr_Willis | ive been playing with 'andlinux' on my window machines.. its sort of a neat merger of virtual/guest/linux on windows. :) | 09:57 |
| BinaryMan | Dr_Willis: how does it differ from cygwin? | 09:57 |
| BinaryMan | more virtualization, less api emulation? | 09:58 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: its actually running a mini linux via qemu (i think) and displays to the Windows desktop via Xming | 09:58 |
| AnAnt | ndr01d: dunno about that , sorry | 09:58 |
| Callum_ | BinaryMan: It's actually Linux, Cygwin is a POSIX API implementation for Windows | 09:58 |
| abo | !xmms | 09:58 |
| ubottu | xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2 instead. | 09:58 |
| ndr01d | thanks mate anyway | 09:58 |
| BinaryMan | interesting. | 09:58 |
| Callum_ | BinaryMan: Much like how Wine is a Win32 API implementation for Unix-like operating systems | 09:59 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: yea - one of the more original setups ive seen in some time. | 09:59 |
| BinaryMan | if i ever get the urge to dual boot, i'll think about it. | 09:59 |
| Dr_Willis | I can run X apps as if they were windows apps basically. with just a few quirks | 09:59 |
| BinaryMan | i have no interest in shrinking this partition, then the lvm. | 10:00 |
| raingrove | why would you wanna run linux in windows | 10:00 |
| pdp1111 | so i got a prob | 10:01 |
| raingrove | winblowz | 10:01 |
| BinaryMan | raingrove: for the several dozen things you can't do in windows but can in linux? | 10:01 |
| sayyedharoon | hello ..can anyone help me with ubuntu 9.10 installatio which by mistake i have made 2 of them in the same computer along with also my xp installation | 10:01 |
| Dr_Willis | I justg have to wonder about windows at times.. this 2tb hd is 10% full and its 10% is scattered all over the hd... how can it be that bad.. :) | 10:01 |
| BinaryMan | unfortunately, there are several things a virtual machine cannot do. | 10:01 |
| Dr_Willis | raingrove: so i can access my linxu apps within windows | 10:01 |
| BinaryMan | and you need windows as the host OS. | 10:01 |
| raingrove | that's sad | 10:01 |
| pdp1111 | i installed ubuntu and it made it through the install but went to reboot and it didnt | 10:01 |
| Dr_Willis | I can run xterm, gnome-terminal or whatever now instead of putty | 10:01 |
| raingrove | one of the reasons you use linux is because windows is an unstable piece of junk | 10:02 |
| pdp1111 | so i had to run the live cd | 10:02 |
| pdp1111 | any help? | 10:02 |
| sayyedharoon | can i have answer on this | 10:02 |
| BinaryMan | Dr_Willis: i flinched at that. if only windows had ext3/4 | 10:02 |
| Callum_ | pdp1111: Is the Ubuntu drive the first hard drive the BIOS is going to try to boot off of ? | 10:02 |
| pdp1111 | cd, then hdd | 10:02 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: I still liked many of the features the BeOS filesystem had. | 10:02 |
| Callum_ | pdp1111: Yes, but in the hard drive boot order, is the drive containing Ubuntu the first HARD DRIVE the BIOS will try to boot? | 10:03 |
| pdp1111 | but there was no cd in | 10:03 |
| pdp1111 | yes | 10:03 |
| BinaryMan | Dr_Willis: better than ntfs | 10:03 |
| Callum_ | pdp1111: then maybe it would be best to try and reinstall it on the same drive, and see how it goes | 10:03 |
| sobersabre | if somebody answered me, I had some net problem... | 10:03 |
| sayyedharoon | can anyone help me with some assistance on the unintsalling of ubuntu | 10:03 |
| BinaryMan | anyone know the highlights in the samba update? | 10:04 |
| Callum_ | pdp1111: make sure the boot loader is installed on the same drive Ubuntu is being installed to | 10:04 |
| sobersabre | I wanted to know if there is a toold to collect traffic usage data by IP | 10:04 |
| pdp1111 | how do i do that | 10:04 |
| quietone | ndr01d: try wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ | 10:04 |
| Dr_Willis | sobersabre: ntop perhaps | 10:04 |
| Callum_ | pdp1111: If you are not sure how to do it, you don't need to worry about that then | 10:04 |
| SirRedTooth | Does anybody know a good alternative to autohotkey for ubuntu? | 10:05 |
| pdp1111 | ok ill try it | 10:05 |
| pdp1111 | so u say just reinstall | 10:05 |
| candy_ | ????????? | 10:05 |
| Callum_ | pdp1111: Give it a try =P | 10:05 |

| ubottu | candy_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 10:07 |
| Dr_Willis | candy_: if they did.. they proberly got you on ignore now. | 10:07 |
| Dr_Willis | ive never even heard of a UIF file | 10:07 |

| candy_ | Dr_Willis, and u plz help me | 10:08 |
| Dr_Willis | candy_: ive never heard of uif befor.. so all ican suggest is you google for 'uif linux extract' | 10:09 |
| candy_ | Dr_Willis, ok | 10:09 |
| BinaryMan | hrm | 10:09 |
| Dr_Willis | somthing ya could of done befor asking in here. :) | 10:09 |
| BinaryMan | candy_: you don't need to do that. | 10:09 |
| BinaryMan | there's a package to extract uif images already on the ubuntu repo. | 10:09 |
| candy_ | BinaryMan, but how to open it? | 10:10 |
| Dr_Willis | package manager searching is good also.. but ive never heard of uif still :) | 10:10 |
| BinaryMan | ubottu must be broken. | 10:10 |

| BinaryMan | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=names&keywords=uif2iso | 10:10 |
| BinaryMan | that will convert the uif image to iso | 10:10 |
| BinaryMan | then you can just mount it. | 10:10 |

| SirRedTooth | Does anybody know a alternative to autohotkey for ubuntu? | 10:11 |
| BinaryMan | SirRedTooth: for global hotkeys? | 10:11 |
| BinaryMan | SirRedTooth: or just remapping keys? | 10:11 |
| SirRedTooth | remapping keys. | 10:11 |
| sudipta | can linux have viruses | 10:11 |
| BinaryMan | yup, it can | 10:12 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: possible - but ive never seen one in the wild. | 10:12 |
| SirRedTooth | So if i type "hi" it replaces with "hello" | 10:12 |
| candy_ | BinaryMan, the link ll do for me i think. thanks | 10:12 |
| Dr_Willis | sudipta: and ones ive seen in the past/history are so specific for various kernel/services.. that they dont live long | 10:12 |

| obiwan_ | guys , could nybody xplain the -0- part in wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add - ?? | 10:13 |
| quietone | sayyedharoon: did you say you have two copies of the same version of ubuntu on your machine plus windows? | 10:13 |
| SirRedTooth | I will do a few more google searches.. | 10:13 |
| epelinpola | hej | 10:13 |
| xpo0f | obiwan_: maybe manual will help | man apt-key | 10:13 |
| BinaryMan | xpo0f: i've been sitting in here for about a month or two now, thanks. | 10:13 |
| obiwan_ | xpo0f: but that's before apt-key | 10:14 |
| MF_Debian | SirRedTooth, autokey | 10:14 |
| xpo0f | BinaryMan: just to say hi | 10:14 |
| obiwan_ | xpo0f: i searched the man wget but i don't find it | 10:14 |
| MF_Debian | SirRedTooth, there is a ppa for it, I havent used it though | 10:14 |
| xpo0f | obiwan_: i also dont know.. that part of gpg i guess | 10:14 |
| ddm | alguien interesado en ubuntu que hable español? | 10:14 |
| SirRedTooth | Okay :) ill see if I can manage to use it. | 10:14 |

| sudipta | then why windows have deadly viruses? | 10:15 |
| === pricey| is now known as Pricey | ||
| xpo0f | any idea what is linux-next patch ?? | 10:15 |
| SirRedTooth | Because most people use windows, so people write viruses for windows. | 10:16 |
| SirRedTooth | And most people using linux are familiar with a computer which makes it hard for them to get infected. | 10:16 |
| xpo0f | SirRedTooth: maybe lack of security, more user friendly | 10:16 |
| xpo0f | i love ubuntu so much .. although karmic really pain | 10:17 |
| Dr_Willis | The russian mafia pays people to write virusew for windows, :) | 10:17 |
| SirRedTooth | I suppose. It might take a while to get used to it though. | 10:17 |
| royrussell | 2 sets down one game down in the 3rd | 10:17 |
| BinaryMan | ddm: no hable espanol, hable ingles | 10:17 |
| Dr_Willis | You learn about computers by using Linux.. with windows.. you learn about scanning for viruses and defragging all day long | 10:17 |
| BinaryMan | it's not even that. | 10:18 |
| BinaryMan | with linux, you have far more control over your system. | 10:18 |
| xpo0f | linux and ubuntu is about community | 10:18 |
| BinaryMan | for example | 10:18 |
| BinaryMan | you plug in an mp3 player | 10:18 |
| BinaryMan | hit dmesg | 10:18 |
| BinaryMan | and you've got all sorts of useful information. | 10:18 |
| BinaryMan | you plug in an mp3 player while running windows, and plug and play goes off. | 10:18 |
| xpo0f | BinaryMan: thats the thing that kernel detect actually | 10:19 |
| BinaryMan | and screams at you if it doesn't work. | 10:19 |
| Dr_Willis | I got a mixxed network of windows and linxu machines.. with samba shares on all of them. I cant 'see' the shares/mechines for some machines with nautilus, or windows. unless i enter the ip# of the server in question. then it works.. Whats causing this. oddity. | 10:19 |
| SirRedTooth | Im guessing in around 4 months time I will be able to run ubuntu as easily as I used to run liux | 10:19 |
| SirRedTooth | linux* | 10:19 |
| BinaryMan | Dr_Willis: make sure the dns names are being resolved. | 10:19 |
| royrussell | Dr_Willis wins server | 10:19 |
| BinaryMan | check the hosts file? | 10:19 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: they should be using the wins. not dns. :) and i do have entries in teh hosts file on the linux box's alsop | 10:20 |
| ddm | no sé inglés | 10:20 |
| Dr_Willis | im having the issue btween 2 windows machines also. | 10:20 |
| Dr_Willis | not just linux to win or win to lin. | 10:20 |
| SirRedTooth | The last step of installing autokey is sudo dpkg -i <buildpackagename>, what does it mean by buildpackage name? | 10:20 |
| BinaryMan | ddm: por favor hable ingles | 10:20 |
| ddm | agradeceria que alguien me orientara de algún chat en castellano que traten sobre ubuntu | 10:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Should i set up one linux box to be a wins server and the others to be a wins client? or is the wins client setting even needed? | 10:21 |
| BinaryMan | ddm: ellos no hable espanol | 10:21 |
| Dr_Willis | reading the samba config file right now.. checking the comments | 10:21 |
| ddm | lo siento, chao | 10:21 |
| xpo0f | Dr_Willis: u can use it like samba pdc | 10:21 |
| BinaryMan | ddm: chao | 10:21 |
| SirRedTooth | The last step of installing autokey is sudo dpkg -i <buildpackagename>, what does it mean by buildpackagename? | 10:22 |
| BinaryMan | SirRedTooth: the name of the package | 10:22 |
| xpo0f | SirRedTooth: and checkinstall will create .deb file | 10:22 |
| BinaryMan | sorry about that. guy didn't know english | 10:22 |
| SirRedTooth | Okay | 10:22 |
| BinaryMan | kept telling him none of us know spanish and he had to speak english | 10:23 |
| Callum_ | BinaryMan: you can redirect him to a Spanish #ubuntu channel | 10:23 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: i installed mplayer again using the ubuntu software center.. however, it doesn't seems to have overwritten my compiled version of mplayer? I thought it would do it? | 10:23 |
| SirRedTooth | Where do I find the name of the package? Something gives me a feeling this is a stupid question... | 10:24 |
| BinaryMan | Dr_Willis: i have three machines on my network, two are running linux and one is running windows. haven't had any problems with samba. | 10:24 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: you can install MPlayer to different places =) which is probably what has happened here | 10:24 |
| BinaryMan | had to play with it a little bit to get it working, but now it works fine. | 10:24 |
| BinaryMan | Callum_: didn't know there was one. what's the channel? | 10:24 |
| BinaryMan | #ubuntu-spanish | 10:24 |
| BinaryMan | ? | 10:24 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: you can uninstall the compiled MPlayer by going to the source code folder where it was compiled and typing 'sudo make uninstall' | 10:25 |
| Callum_ | isn't it something like #ubuntu-es or something? | 10:25 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: yea i even have oddities with just the 2 windows box's here. Im wondering if my router is doing some security stuff. but i cant find any. and that dont explain why the ip's work. but not the names | 10:25 |
| SirRedTooth | I just downloaded a application, how to i find <buildpackagename> so I can run the install? | 10:25 |
| gabriel_ | so are BOTH versions on my path now? And it just executes the first entry on the path? | 10:25 |
| BinaryMan | up, that's it. | 10:26 |
| xpo0f | SirRedTooth: apt-cache search <package> | 10:26 |
| BinaryMan | /shrug | 10:26 |
| BinaryMan | he left freenode. | 10:26 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: rereading chapter 7 of 'using samba -> http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch07.html | 10:26 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: Yes, you will want to remove the compiled one by going to the source code folder where it was compiled and typing 'sudo make uninstall' | 10:26 |
| gabriel_ | where is the latest installed one, if i want to try it first before uninstalling my own? | 10:26 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: :) i really do RTFM | 10:26 |
| SirRedTooth | Okay | 10:26 |
| BinaryMan | Dr_Willis: I would check the hosts files first. | 10:26 |
| SirRedTooth | Is there a tutorial for all this | 10:26 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: before that i would like to see if the repo version works better... | 10:27 |
| BinaryMan | that was my problem with name resolving. | 10:27 |
| BinaryMan | i don't have a WINS server set up. | 10:27 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: You will probably need to make uninstall the compiled one to do that | 10:27 |
| xpo0f | !info pdnsd | 10:27 |
| ubottu | pdnsd (source: pdnsd): Proxy DNS Server. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.7-par-1 (karmic), package size 285 kB, installed size 712 kB | 10:27 |
| xpo0f | im using pdnsd .. no more WINS server | 10:28 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: well, ok :/ | 10:28 |
| SirRedTooth | I will read the documentation | 10:28 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: Just installed MPlayer from the repo and using SMPlayer to play it, and VDPAU seems to be working for me =) | 10:28 |
| xpo0f | gabriel_: vlc also ok to0 | 10:28 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: hosts file on a linxu box wouldent be affecting the 2 windows machines would it? i was just wondering what if the wins server has a messed up hosts file | 10:29 |
| xpo0f | Dr_Willis: you can also put in your /etc/hosts file | 10:29 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: aha, i have smplayer installed. i can try it i guess.. but how can i see if it's actually using vdpau? should i start smplayer from commandline? | 10:29 |
| Dr_Willis | xpo0f: thats what i am checking right now. | 10:29 |
| BinaryMan | Dr_Willis: check the hosts file on the windows boxes? | 10:30 |
| gabriel_ | but i have to give the command to use vdpay right? | 10:30 |
| Ganang | did anyone try running photoshop with wine? did it run well? | 10:30 |
| gabriel_ | vdpau | 10:30 |
| SirRedTooth | Anybody know a tutorial that explains how to install applications? By that I mean the concept of packages. | 10:30 |
| xpo0f | Ganang: u can use playonlinux | 10:30 |
| richlyn | just got the burg installed on my karmic | 10:30 |
| Dr_Willis | BinaryMan: yea. last i looked there - those were untouched by me.. let me double check | 10:30 |
| xpo0f | !info playonlinux | Ganang | 10:30 |

| sarthor | r | 10:31 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: no, it can be configured using a GUI, such as SMPlayer | 10:31 |
| Ganang | xpo0f: is playonlinux also an " emulator"? | 10:31 |
| Ganang | thanks | 10:31 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: oh, so you configured it to use vdpau in the smplayer gui? | 10:31 |
| SirRedTooth | Anybody know a tutorial that explains how to install applications? By that I mean the concept of packages. | 10:31 |
| xpo0f | Ganang: wine also ok.. download .pol file to run it | 10:31 |
| xpo0f | but it guess gimp is better | 10:31 |
| xpo0f | SirRedTooth: meaning ? | 10:31 |
| richlyn | out | 10:32 |
| ruien | SirRedTooth: do you mean installing automatically via apt-get, installing .deb packages directly, or installing from source manually? | 10:32 |
| Ganang | xpo0f: could be better, but i am used to photoshop, and i need to hand some stuff for tomorrow so with photoshop i can do it really fast | 10:32 |
| richlyn | you can download pakages manually in differrent OS and install later | 10:32 |
| xpo0f | Ganang: ok.. gudluck | 10:32 |

| balsaq | with an intel atom and 1 gig ram is there really a big speed difference between xfce and gnome? do gnome apps run faster in gnome than in xfce, like firefox for example? | 10:33 |
| xpo0f | SirRedTooth: u neet to read ape-cache instead | 10:33 |
| SirRedTooth | Oh | 10:34 |
| faileas | SirRedTooth: its just a compressed bunch of files, with a file telling your system how to remove, and install then | 10:34 |
| faileas | them | 10:34 |
| SirRedTooth | Okay | 10:34 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: Just tried it, yeah | 10:34 |

| xpo0f | apt-get will install dependency to0 | 10:35 |
| faileas | SirRedTooth: google, or apt-cache search (some keyword) | 10:36 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: could you tell me what settings you use to get good playback? For instance, I saw there is a option "use coreAVC if no other codec specified"... i think that's weird, since normally you don't have coreAVC installed! | 10:36 |
| xpo0f | SirRedTooth: you may search package using apt-cache search <package> | 10:36 |
| gawk | When I tried mounting it from a live CD, it told me it couldn't mount it | 10:36 |
| BinaryMan | there is the GUI interface | 10:36 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: you do have the repo MPlayer and SMPlayer installed and the compiled one UNINSTALLED, right? =) | 10:36 |
| SirRedTooth | I will understand apt-cache first. | 10:36 |
| BinaryMan | it's something like system -> administration -> software packages | 10:36 |
| SirRedTooth | I feel utterly stupid right now | 10:36 |
| ruien | SirRedTooth: you can search packages in aptitude as well. That is what I like to use. | 10:36 |
| xpo0f | SirRedTooth: using synaptic-package-manager | 10:36 |
| BinaryMan | SirRedTooth: you're learning something new. you can't expect to know this right off the bat. | 10:37 |
| SirRedTooth | I suppose | 10:37 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: well i haven't managed to uninstalled the compiled one yet :D | 10:37 |
| BinaryMan | SirRedTooth: a lot of us started using linux years ago. back before it was this user-friendly. | 10:37 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: Just go to the source code folder where you compiled MPlayer and type 'sudo make uninstall' | 10:38 |
| BinaryMan | in some cases, before a gui installer existd. | 10:38 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: ok now i did it, it should have worked now | 10:38 |
| Callum_ | Okay | 10:38 |

| balsaq | is evolution integration canonical's idea or is it because of the Gnome DE? | 10:39 |
| kinkelson | hello all.. | 10:39 |
| Guest79931 | hi kink | 10:40 |
| xpo0f | i cant remove evolution and its depends on gnome-panel .. | 10:40 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: i have uninstalled. However, I can STILL run the same video as before with coreAVC codec! How is that possible?? ALso, i don't see vdpau driver in smplayer :( Only other drivers... | 10:40 |
| Tm_T | balsaq: I'm sure it's gnome thing | 10:40 |
| kinkelson | hi Guest79931 | 10:40 |
| Myrtti | balsaq: evolution is an official part of gnome... | 10:40 |
| Callum_ | balsaq: yeah, Evolution is part of the GNOME project | 10:40 |
| Guest79931 | i want make upgrade to Pidgin but it didn't work | 10:40 |
| Guest79931 | any one for help | 10:40 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: i think that if it REALLY uninstalled, how can it still use the coreavc codec? | 10:41 |
| balsaq | in that case i really think xfce should be default lol integration is more windowsish | 10:41 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: that is odd... | 10:41 |
| kinkelson | how did u do it? throught the CLI or GUI? | 10:41 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: yeah it's odd. i just wanted to confirm the uninstall | 10:41 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: What was the output of 'sudo make uninstall'? | 10:41 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: stuff like: rm -f /usr/local/bin/mplayer /usr/local/bin/gmplayer | 10:41 |
| xpo0f | Guest79931: u need to add launchpad pidgin developers | 10:42 |
| Callum_ | Hmmm | 10:42 |
| Guest79931 | i made apt-get upgrade Pidgin | 10:42 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: You weren't running any instances of MPlayer while you were uninstalling it, right? | 10:42 |
| Ganang | xpo0f: After installing playonlinux, how can i install the software, with wine or playonlinux directly? | 10:42 |
| Guest79931 | but that give me time is out | 10:42 |
| kinkelson | Guest79931 u need to uninstall the current version and install the version u want | 10:43 |
| kinkelson | thats safer and cleaner | 10:43 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: i was running smplayer, if that matters? | 10:43 |
| === antti is now known as antrissa | ||
| xpo0f | Ganang: playonlinux directly, u can find it in games menu | 10:43 |
| Guest79931 | i made that too | 10:43 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: That might make a difference, try running it while SMPlayer isn't running | 10:43 |
| kinkelson | on the other hand the upgrade could have failed because you have the newest verion | 10:43 |
| kinkelson | did u check the version numbers? | 10:43 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: omg i was just logged out for no reason :/ | 10:44 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: X server probably crashed, that happens | 10:45 |
| Guest79931 | now i made "sudo apt-get remove pidgin" | 10:45 |

| gabriel_ | What setting do i need to avoid tearing in video playback? I have a geforce 8800GT card, and in nvidia x server settings i can check "sync to VBlank", but when i playback high res video i still get tearing sometimes. What do i need to do? | 11:19 |
| iceroot | xianwen: you can use apt-file search filename to see what package contains that file. install it with sudo apt-get install apt-file and then run sudo apt-file update | 11:19 |
| Myrtti | pratik_donda: have you looked for the application in the package management? | 11:19 |

| iceroot | xianwen: download the package and extract it to get the files | 11:21 |
| Callum_ | gabirel_: I know, disable Composite extension in X server...unfortunately with this you won't be able to use COmpiz | 11:21 |
| SirRedTooth | Where do files do when you have installed them? | 11:21 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: I know, disable Composite extension in X server...unfortunately with this you won't be able to use COmpiz | 11:21 |

| maffelinux | If I modify my .bashrc file, do I have to restart my terminal in order to get effects, or can I just run it like 'sh .bashrc' and the changes will come into effect? | 11:22 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: what manu is that in? | 11:22 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: You will have to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then log out and log back in | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | maffelinux: use 'source .bashrc' or '. .bashrc' | 11:23 |
| maffelinux | ..bashrc? | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | maffelinux: note the space? | 11:23 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: so then i can never use compiz? I must manually change the file back if i want compiz back?? :( | 11:23 |
| maffelinux | ah, yes | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | . = source command. | 11:23 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: Yes | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | maffelinux: and think about why 'sh .bashrc' wont do anything. :) bash homework | 11:24 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: isn't there a way to still have compiz active? :( | 11:24 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: please? ;) | 11:24 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: It's the easiest way to get rid of the tearing | 11:24 |
| Dr_Willis | maffelinux: sh reads/runs the script then exits.. all changes/settings then are discarded back when it goes to the parent shell | 11:24 |
| SirRedTooth | Where do files do when you have installed them? | 11:24 |
| Dr_Willis | maffelinux: plus sh is not the same as 'bash' in many cases | 11:24 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: well i can't live without compiz... is there a way to keep compiz but still get rid of tearing? | 11:25 |
| Callum_ | gabriel_: Not that I know of | 11:25 |
| SirRedTooth | Like what is the equivalent of programme files in ubuntu | 11:25 |
| iceroot | SirRedTooth: in different directorys, depending on the program | 11:25 |
| gabriel_ | *crying* | 11:25 |
| iceroot | SirRedTooth: there is no single directory as in windows | 11:25 |
| Guest94903 | gabriel_: on simillar hardware i didn't notice any tearing <: | 11:25 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: theres really not a 'single directroy' in windows either | 11:25 |
| === Guest94903 is now known as DaZ | ||
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: but you know what i mean | 11:26 |
| SirRedTooth | Okay because i just installed something and it has no shortcuts | 11:26 |
| SirRedTooth | And i dont know how to run it | 11:26 |
| iceroot | SirRedTooth: what program? | 11:26 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: dont even get me started on the weirdness OS-X does :) | 11:26 |
| RichiH | is there any cli download manager with a queue, start/stop/resume, parallel downloads and maybe even downloading files in parallel chunks? | 11:26 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: if i am correct mac osx is hiding /etc and so on | 11:26 |
| SirRedTooth | autokey, managed to find it in the software center because i couldnt install it manually | 11:26 |
| kickb | When you login through the console or ssh you get some information from the package system; how many packages than can be updated. Which tool collects this information and where is it stored? | 11:26 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: it gets much weirder then that.. | 11:26 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: only to directorys? /foo and /home or something like that? | 11:27 |
| iceroot | two | 11:27 |
| SirRedTooth | I could run autohotkey using wine. | 11:27 |
| Callum_ | kickb: That tool would be apt-get and its stored as metadata in the APT cache... | 11:27 |
| SirRedTooth | Autohotkey takes like 2 seconds to set up | 11:27 |
| Zenyatta | hi | 11:28 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: os-x can shomehow make the filenames case inseneitive for the gui but the underlaying OS is still case senesitive. :) thats a neat trick. and somehow it can make directories of files appear as a single file/executable. | 11:28 |
| iceroot | SirRedTooth: what if you type autokey in the terminal? | 11:28 |
| SirRedTooth | Oh it worked :) | 11:28 |
| SirRedTooth | thanks | 11:28 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: .... that sounds very very buggy with the case sensetive | 11:28 |
| mohave | SirRedTooth: and autohotkey works in the ubuntu interface properly? | 11:28 |
| === peter is now known as Guest92202 | ||
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: i dont know how they manage it. | 11:29 |
| SirRedTooth | I dont think it does, well I havnt tried it. | 11:29 |
| SirRedTooth | How do i make a shortcut for a terminal command? | 11:29 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: and i dont want to know it or even use it | 11:29 |
| iceroot | !alias | SirRedTooth | 11:29 |
| iceroot | SirRedTooth: man alias | 11:29 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: depends on what you mwean by shortcut | 11:29 |
| SirRedTooth | So instead of openeing the terminal and typing autokey | 11:30 |
| Callum_ | Alright, I can't take this stomach pain any more, I need some sleep... | 11:30 |
| SirRedTooth | i just click on a shortcut | 11:30 |
| gabriel_ | Guest94903 well are you using compiz at the same time? | 11:30 |
| iceroot | SirRedTooth: ah ok, create a launcher in the gnome-panel and type in the command | 11:30 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: you mean make a 'launcher' :) windows uses shortcuts | 11:30 |
| === Dragon_Legion[ps is now known as Dragon_Legion | ||
| SirRedTooth | Yeah | 11:30 |
| kickb | Callum_: But I can't find the any arguments that just gives me the information on how many packages can be upgraded | 11:30 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: or click/drag/hold down alt, drop on desktop selet make link.. may work | 11:30 |
| Dragon_Legion | anyone know how to remount a read-only vfat USB and make it writeable again? | 11:31 |
| Dr_Willis | or add it to your autostart stuff :) | 11:31 |
| gabriel_ | Callum_: if i disable compiz there is no tearing whatsoever. And i can use compiz fusion icon to switch between metacity and compiz, so it's not THAT bad... when i want to watch an hd movie i have to switch to avoid tearing, but at least it's just two clicks of the mouse... | 11:32 |
| SirRedTooth | Done :) thanks | 11:32 |
| Dr_Willis | gabriel_: some media players may have some video settings to reduce the issue. | 11:32 |
| gabriel_ | Dr_Willis: really? you mean while still using compiz? Well i'm using smplayer, which is new to me, so i don't know... looked around a bit but didn't find anything | 11:33 |

| Dr_Willis | gabriel_: i dont do a lot of HD video however, | 11:35 |

| Dr_Willis | !modules | 11:49 |
| ubottu | To compile modules and drivers that are not bundled with the standard kernel, for more info /msg ubottu kernel , install the relevant package, usually called "<modulename>-source", and run « sudo module-assistant » (you will have to do this again after kernel updates). To prevent specific modules from loading, see /msg ubottu blacklist | 11:49 |

| rumpsy | but what is the format? i donno that | 11:50 |

| Dr_Willis | swordz: lcd or crt? or what? | 11:55 |
| rumpsy | Dr_Willis: do , lsmod, and check, you might have nvidia module loaded | 11:55 |
| swordz | LCD | 11:55 |

| hnsr | ok thanks | 11:56 |

| rumpsy | o_O | 11:56 |
| rumpsy | it has to be loaded o_O | 11:57 |
| hnsr | ok it seems it still found some even older versions of linux-images, how can i get rid of these? they dont show up in synaptic package manager | 11:57 |
| Dr_Willis | rumpsy: this box is a nvidia agp card I belive... | 11:57 |

| erUSUL | XD | 11:58 |
| transonic | ohh thank god | 11:58 |
| rumpsy | Dr_Willis: in my part, i have onboard intel graphics, and PCI nvidia, i seen that intel_agp module loaded, i added that in backlist, now i want to load nvidia_agp | 11:58 |
| transonic | help me plz..how to increase screen resolution from 800x600 to 1024*728 on virtualbox inside xp | 11:59 |
| Dr_Willis | nvidia settings says - version 173.14.20 | 11:59 |
| erUSUL | rumpsy: if the nvidia is PCI-E why you need nvidia-agp ? | 11:59 |
| Fallendream | thanks zenyatta | 11:59 |
| Zenyatta | Fallendream: so you could delete the XP partition and then get ubuntu to use all the disk space | 11:59 |
| hnsr | or let me ask a different question, how can I influence the boot menu options that update-grub detects? for example it also detects my laptop's recovery partition as a windows installation and adds an entry for it, which i dont want | 11:59 |
| Zenyatta | :) | 11:59 |
| rumpsy | erUSUL: this not PCI-e, this is jut a PCI | 11:59 |

| codebx | h0f1ul, your best bet is to reinstall AOL and use the network tools to hack into the system | 12:07 |

| Dr_Willis | ae86-drifter: use teh uid/gid/user/options for the fstab entry. the ntfs-3g homepage has docs ane example entries for it. | 12:07 |

| meowagi | the space | 12:21 |
| maite | probably it's very simple for you | 12:21 |
| Dr_Willis | michaeldobrovits: you want it to work right? dont use spaces. | 12:21 |
| maite | but I can't manage with it | 12:21 |
| meowagi | the space betwen program and files | 12:21 |
| michaeldobrovits | i see | 12:21 |
| meowagi | you can use spaces but use " | 12:21 |
| Dr_Willis | spaces in fstab are NOT escaped with a '\ ' | 12:21 |

| codebx | Dr_Willis, good point! | 12:22 |
| codebx | i was going to suggest using \ until you said something :-) | 12:22 |
| Dr_Willis | its somthing like 002 or Some weirdness i had to use for a windows share with spaces in the name | 12:22 |
| gabriel_ | Dr_Willis: good idea: l4d in irc mode. wow, what a hit! | 12:22 |
| michaeldobrovits | it'll work without the dash but with a space? | 12:22 |
| meowagi | Try using doublequotes instead of \ ie //192.168.1.103/"Full Movies" or you might need double back quotes like this //192.168.1.103/Full\\ Movies | 12:23 |
| maite | I can easily connect and handle a ftp command line session (download/upload files...) but I can't through the graphical ftp | 12:23 |

| Dr_Willis | ruien: personally i ssh in, run vncserver, then connect from a vnc client | 12:30 |
| michaeldobrovits | thx everyone for sharing info. my 2nd one will be, does anyone have succeeded triplehead 2 go digital on ubuntu at 5040x1050@59hz? mines only works at 5040x1050@57 ? is there anyone out there? | 12:30 |
| garymc | Hi, anyone know how i sort my relay for my email server in postfix and dovecot? I can send emails to the same domain but not any outside it | 12:30 |
| maite | I mean isn't it kind of sad that the default graphical client not to work... | 12:31 |
| maite | thanks anyway | 12:31 |
| ruien | Dr_Willis: i'm trying to do that as well, but i haven't found documentation on how to get the x-session attached to the vnc session, if it even works that way. :-? | 12:32 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: you are missunderstanding how vnc CAN work | 12:32 |
| maite | bye | 12:33 |
| l700bluetooth | maite, en que ciudad vives? | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: you do not need to have the 'current desktop/X session' attatch to the vncserver | 12:33 |
| pacem | yes it is connected and its usb. i cant see it in lsusb | 12:33 |
| erUSUL | maite: works for me; i could connec to gnu ftp server | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: you could have a dozen different 'hidden' vncserver sessions going at the same time , with No X on the local display at all | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: those could be ran bu differnt people and rnning different desktops all at the same time | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: the 'vnc shows the current visible desktop' (gnome) is a relatively new feature of gnome/vnc. | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: thats how it HAS to work in windows.. but not in linux. :) | 12:34 |
| codec1 | Greetings guys, i was wondering if ATI supports ubuntu now? and if the conversion from windows to ubuntu was easy on a HP DV2 laptop | 12:35 |
| linu | i dont want program i must set up script to upper school:( | 12:35 |
| ruien | Dr_Willis: would all of those vnc sessions be in an X environment, or would they look like SSH in that case? I just get connection refused on my vnc in, but i thought it was because it couldn't find a display to attach to. Since the machine has no monitor, it doesn't even have a "current visible desktop" | 12:35 |
| psycho_oreos | pacem, paste the contents of lsusb into pastebin, and paste me the url, I'll have a look | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: vnc is a X desktop/server - not a terminal like ssh. | 12:36 |
| GreenDance | Hi | 12:36 |
| quietone | garymc: I set up postfix and dovecot today for the first time. I spent a lot of time reading at www.postfix.org | 12:36 |
| GreenDance | the echo command, how can I echo something out onto a second line, would i use a / | 12:36 |
| cisco | codec1 ati is supported by 9.10 it will ask u to update ur driver | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: install tightvncserver, run vncserver, try connecting with vncviewer to the ip:port | 12:36 |
| ruien | ok | 12:37 |
| garymc | quietone : have you got the relay stuff working so you can access send/recieve emails remotley? | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: it in no way/shapw or form needs X running on the remote box. :) | 12:37 |
| ruien | wow ok | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: it spawns its own session.. | 12:37 |
| johntramp | whenever i go to a webpage with java my firefox browser crashes. any ideas what could be causing this? | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: run vncserver again.. connect to the new port.. ya got 2 x sessions.. repeat | 12:37 |
| dhruvasagar | Hello everyone | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: however - running 2 Gnome sessions as the same user can cause issues.. use a different windowmanager for vnc is a good idea. | 12:37 |
| LjL | GrandPixel: you mean print two lines? echo -e "line1\nline2" | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: gnome can be sluggish over vnc | 12:37 |
| dhruvasagar | I would like to know how I could duplicate my current ubuntu installation on another machine | 12:38 |
| ruien | Dr_Willis: I installed xfce and never the full gnome desktop. but i don't think that should matter in this case | 12:38 |
| dhruvasagar | anybody ? | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: vnc can be very sluggish.. | 12:38 |
| gabriel_ | has anyone used sun virtualbox with windows on it? I have it installed. The problem is, I can't get bridged network to work. There's never an answer back it seems. I'm behind my own router with DHCP. | 12:38 |
| LjL | !cloning | dhruvasagar, this is one way | 12:38 |
| ubottu | dhruvasagar, this is one way: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 12:38 |
| erUSUL | dhruvasagar: using clonezilla ? | 12:39 |
| dhruvasagar | erUSUL: clonezilla ? | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | ruien: i use flwm and just a termial like xterm for my vnc sessions. I keep them VERY light | 12:39 |
| tehbaut | what's up with Ubuntu and dragons? | 12:39 |
| codec1 | dhruvasagar, its possible but really, just make a backup of it and then install ubuntu on the other machine then restore he backup | 12:39 |

| l0nwlf | DIL: sorry, i was wrong | 13:54 |
| Eremite | nikos_, then it's probably a driver issue. I had MANY problesm in linux that I didnt on windows with dual-boot, too. If you use the same hardware for both OS' then I assume its a driver problem. Make sure you have the proper drivers and they are updated. | 13:54 |

| Quan-Time | xfact: have a good search around you might find an answer on some forum somewhere | 15:24 |
| Ravm | blakkheim: Ok, thanks. I'll try that out. | 15:24 |

| marine1 | blakkheim: here it is: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 | 15:25 |
| blakkheim | marine1: that shouldn't have anything to do with flash not loading though | 15:25 |
| Quan-Time | xfact: heh.. i help when i can. often problems are easy, sometimes they are WAY over my head.. but i try where i can | 15:26 |
| xfact | Well, I am removing my native flash player and I will reinstall it via Ubuntu-Tweak | 15:26 |

| Quan-Time | candy: grub is your answer.. i dualboot win7 + karmic.. | 15:27 |
| ajipubuntu | i have read about terminal emulator | 15:28 |

| IdleOne | candy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Dual-booting | 15:29 |
| itchy__b | bullgard4: i dont think i have downloaded any foreign DEB program packages. i thought it maybe a codec issue but when i go to youtube the video is fine | 15:29 |
| IdleOne | candy: 3 simple commands, should be good to go after that | 15:29 |
| Quan-Time | candy: do what IdleOne says.. follow that. verify everythintg, then get back to us | 15:29 |
| MuffinPimp | Quan-Time: because it used to work and i'm used to it | 15:29 |
| richlyn | Have force installed burg from root to dedicated partition but theres no burg.cfg in the folder | 15:30 |

| Quan-Time | MuffinPimp: thats bizzare its trying to get a jar to do it.. shut it domn, and close any process still running firefox (or your browser) and try again.. maybe java is locked ? | 15:31 |
| Quan-Time | candy: hmm.... its a NTFS system im guessing ? | 15:32 |
| Quan-Time | tried mounting it and checkintg it ? | 15:32 |
| candy | Quan-Time, ya ur true | 15:32 |
| Quan-Time | make sure the data isnt corrupted / you can still "read" it ? | 15:32 |
| MuffinPimp | Quan-Time: It's been happening for days even after restarting | 15:32 |
| Quan-Time | candy: ok.. try mounting it whichever way you prefer, try to copy from it, but not TOO it | 15:32 |
| marine1 | blakkheim: i don't think it was ever flash because all other sites work just can't view streaming video at ustream | 15:32 |

| MuffinPimp | Quan-Time: yeah I can read fully formed url's | 15:35 |
| bullgard4 | !wireless | cmp | 15:35 |
| ubottu | cmp: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 15:35 |
| Quan-Time | MuffinPimp: as much as i DONT wanna suggest it, it might be somethin to remove it, relog (either shutdown or wahtever) and reinstall and see if that fixes it. | 15:35 |
| Quan-Time | MuffinPimp: altho thats a hugely last resort. | 15:36 |
| candy | Quan-Time, i can see and access all drives from ubuntu even c in which win 7 is there | 15:36 |
| MuffinPimp | Quan-Time: is there a way I can just reinstall firefox? | 15:36 |
| Quan-Time | candy: ok.. so the partition is "working" | 15:36 |
| Quan-Time | MuffinPimp: yup, in the synaptic package manager you can "mark for reinstall" from memory | 15:36 |
| Quan-Time | never tried it, i think it just "verifys" package integrity | 15:37 |
| MuffinPimp | ok i'll try that | 15:37 |

| bullgard4 | [Seahorse] 'Passwords and Encrytion Keys' > 'Other Keys' lists 3 'Key ID's for one person. 1 comprises 8 hex digits. 2 comprise 16 hex digits each. Why are there in GnuPG 2 different Key IDs differing in length? | 15:37 |
| IdleOne | !ask | Mepster | 15:37 |
| ubottu | Mepster: 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. :-) | 15:37 |
| Quan-Time | Mepster: dont ask to ask a question.. just flat out say it ! | 15:37 |
| marine1 | blakkheim: it's something to do with firefox because i went to my laptop that runs chrome and it loaded immediately | 15:37 |
| Quan-Time | candy: ok.. im gonna have a guess and say win7 MAY have updated somethin crazy. if your using a legit copy and have a DVD, you may be able to "repair" it.. | 15:38 |

| kn100 | hlfshell: looking into it now | 17:05 |
| PingFloyd | the quirkiness with ATI doesn't have to do with ubuntu. It's because of ATI's fglrx drivers | 17:05 |

| PingFloyd | nytek_: last couple of versions of fglrx have been quirky | 17:06 |
| nytek_ | PingFloyd: i agree, buts not because of ati. linux drivers arent their priority | 17:06 |
| kn100 | hlfshell: Ok, I don't have a clue, since according to the internet the drivers for your card (Radeon Mobility 7500) are already bundled with ubuntu, so I think someone else will have to help you, as this is out of my depth | 17:07 |
| nytek_ | PingFloyd: unfortunately | 17:07 |

| kn100 | hlfshell: to disable the notifications I guess you could just disable them, but that seems a bit extreme | 17:08 |
| PingFloyd | nytek_: what I'm getting at is that it wasn't ubuntu's messup on that | 17:08 |
| hlfshell | where do i disable them kn100 ? | 17:08 |

| PingFloyd | nytek_: actually in any distro trying to implement the more recent version of fglrx | 17:09 |

| unperson | ikonia, For people who dual-boot, though, I think the fakeraid has the advantage of being accessible from multiple OSes. | 17:54 |

| Snowboarder | I downloaded java for firefox as a file: jre-6u18-linux-i586-rpm.bin How do I then install it? | 18:08 |
| Slart | Snowboarder: java is available from the repos.. no need to download it as a file | 18:08 |
| Slart | !java | Snowboarder | 18:08 |
| ubottu | Snowboarder: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 18:08 |
| llutz | Snowboarder: not at all, use native packages | 18:08 |
| acovrig | when I plug an iPod into my 8.10, it opens gtkpod, can I change that? | 18:09 |

| suman | hey can somebody tell me if i need license to get the ubuntu desktop installed on the systems | 18:10 |
| macman_ | so i rip a lot of movies right .. DVDfab for windows under wine blows out any linux apps .. any idea why and what linux apps are as good as DVDFab ? | 18:10 |

| philipp__ | suman: you could try handbrake | 18:11 |
| purplefool | Slart, this is the page where i got all the information and the file: http://developer.wz2100.net/wiki/LinuxCompileGuide | 18:11 |
| Slart | suman: nope.. the license is included in the iso.. but you don't have to get a personal license before you install it | 18:11 |
| Snowboarder | llutz, sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin ? | 18:12 |
| suman | thanx | 18:12 |
| philipp__ | macman_: you could try handbrake to rip to mp4 files | 18:12 |
| Slart | suman: there are no serials or keys.. if you don't agree with the license just uninstall ubuntu.. | 18:12 |
| macman_ | philipp__: handbrake dosen't rip encrypted dvd's | 18:12 |
| llutz | Snowboarder: sun-java6-jre or sun-java6-plugin | 18:12 |
| philipp__ | macman_: thats true | 18:12 |
| Snowboarder | llutz, which one then? | 18:13 |
| macman_ | i can't belive i have to use a windows app just to do the job | 18:13 |

| ubottu | cambazz: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 18:17 |

| gerzel | hmm Anyone know of a package that has all the features of gnome terminal plus a way to divide the window so you get side-by-side terminals? | 18:17 |

| blakkheim | gerzel: gnome terminal+screen | 18:17 |
| blakkheim | Slart: then what does it do | 18:17 |
| cambazz | i did try, uninstalling java, then reinstalling it | 18:18 |
| gerzel | blakkheim; Thanks. | 18:18 |
| cambazz | but it did not work | 18:18 |
| Slart | blakkheim: upgrade only upgrades some packages.. things that doesn't require a reboot or packages that doesn't require new packages to be installed or something like that.. ie a upgrade-light... dist-upgrade upgrades all packages | 18:18 |

| deuterium | guys, do you usually set up a box from scratch again, if only a user account was compromised? | 19:14 |
| multwifi | SirRedTooth: in Gnome, right click the current workspaces at the bottom right, and preferences | 19:14 |
| suigeneris | Brk0li, also, the windows pc has to have remote connectivity enabled | 19:14 |

| zacq | hi i have problem with ubuntu, some one tell me when i write "sudo rm -rf /" my system working faster, now i can`t run system, why? | 19:14 |
| suigeneris | Brk0li, I suggest you use vncviever | 19:14 |
| Rabbitbunny | zacq: Because you just trashed your system. Reinstall. | 19:14 |
| jrib | zacq: that command doesn't do anything | 19:14 |
| Slart | zacq: you've deleted all your system files.. which is odd since ubuntu doesn't let you do that afaik | 19:15 |
| * erUSUL smells troll | 19:15 | |
| Brk0li | rm - rf removes your root directory | 19:15 |
| suigeneris | Brk0li, and install ultravnc server or equivalent to your windows | 19:15 |
| deuterium | Slart, Rabbitbunny: it's an important one.. but the attack seems to have been really amateurish and non-critical: http://pastebin.com/dbd7eafe | 19:15 |
| Rabbitbunny | erk: Shh, we let them play with it for a bit | 19:15 |
| multwifi | how do i configure two wireless cards in ubuntu? | 19:15 |
| Brk0li | would teamviewer count as an equivalent | 19:15 |
| Slart | Brk0li: it used to do that.. I think there is a check that stops that specific command | 19:15 |
| zacq | thx | 19:15 |
| Slart | deuterium: or they just wanted it to look that way | 19:16 |

| actionparsnip | Butch128: should be ok. Backup the image incase you get unstuck | 19:28 |
| Butch128 | Well, its not so much the implementation, i just need to get "parted" to resize it. I've already got 20GB "free" space on the virtual drive. | 19:29 |

| jrib | suigeneris: so you ran both a chmod command AND a chown command at some point in the past? | 19:29 |
| suigeneris | jrib, I only ran chown to own that dir | 19:29 |
| Butch128 | I mounted the virtual drive in another distro, so now i have /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. When I try and use parted, it tells me /dev/sdb1 is alraedy being used, and to unmount it. When i try and unmount it, it says its not mounted | 19:29 |
| miner | actionparsnip: The ram tests seemed to be ok - no errors. I restarted and chose the "check disk for defects" option from the livecd list and it hung. Any ideas? On /dev/sda1 is an ntfs windows recovery partition that I left in case I needed to restore windows... Could that be the problem? | 19:29 |
| guest_89 | CrashOverride, heard of a 128 bit compter? | 19:29 |
| deuterium | Slart: yes.. but it was my silly mistake.. should have used a harder to guess pwd for that test account | 19:30 |

| usser | bcurtiswx, ubuntu's ondemand governor is usually pretty good at deciding when to scale up/down, so theres no ok level i suppose | 20:58 |

| codebx | LuksPartition, oh i was just teasing you... an odd way of giving you a compliment | 20:58 |
| LuksPartition | surf: yea the router gives the same mac address the same ip usually to avoid conflicts on the network.... | 20:58 |

| mkanyicy | codebx, what children? | 21:07 |

| M25 | usser: when the command order is reversed it works fine | 21:08 |
| usser | mkanyicy, M25 has a terminal device with no / key so he's trying to preprocess all input to bash to replace \ with / | 21:08 |
| jamal | So forgive my ignorance, but what did I kinda stumble on to? Just a free reign channel about Ubuntu? | 21:08 |

| usser | M25, i think sed is greedy like that it doesnt actually pipe out all the output until it gets EOF | 21:13 |
| * D-coy use the comands and yakuake (H) | 21:14 | |
| M25 | usser: maybe, but then why am I getting output with just the sed line | 21:14 |
| usser | M25, here try cat | sed -u 's-\\-/-g' | bash | 21:14 |
| mkanyicy | omar, try to update and upgrade before trying to install your app | 21:14 |
| M25 | usser: SWEET! | 21:14 |

| mkanyicy | omar, try 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' | 21:15 |
| LuksPartition | marioatlp: are you using dhcp ? | 21:15 |
| marioatlp | yes | 21:15 |
| marioatlp | LuksPartition, yes | 21:15 |
| mkanyicy | Lokin, if you want you can, is the drive new? | 21:15 |
| LuksPartition | marioatlp: can you give the box a static ip and not use dhcp, so that it wont pull a dns from the router or whatever its connected to | 21:15 |
| mkanyicy | Lokin, if there is data on it, it may be lost | 21:16 |
| marioatlp | ok so thats the root cause then | 21:16 |
| mkanyicy | Lokin, if there is data on it, it may be lost, so you rather resize it | 21:16 |
| LuksPartition | marioatlp: id guess, it doesn't pick up a dns through magic ;-P | 21:16 |

| Izinucs | DrDuck: after booting into the rescue kernel there will typically be options listed that you can utilize.. one is to reset the video.. you shoould try that first. if it doesn't work choose the menu option to get you to a command line prompt and then "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati" .. after that repeat step 1 and see if it works. | 21:48 |
| jack5463 | mkanyicy, I'm just going to find it and delete it from a ubuntu, after i figure out how. | 21:48 |
| thearthur | Azhen, only modems | 21:48 |
| syrius | no gunzip is a command frt975 | 21:48 |
| DrDuck | Izinucs: I had an option when I went to the menu. Running ubuntu for todays date regularly, runing ubuntu for today's dat in recovery mode, runing it for the date of the 28'th regularly, or runing it for the date of the 28'th in recovery mode. I attempted to run the date of the 28'th, but there were issues. My touchpad no longer worked. | 21:49 |
| Azhen | thearthur: ? | 21:49 |
| brontosaurusrex | danbhfive: actually i figured out user interaction this time (i think): its a 3 way option, a. alt+space, tpye few letters to get the launch (gnome-do), b. clicky on the docky to get the most used stuff running and c. structure, like - internet, system, ect (thats provided by mint menu) | 21:49 |

| Some_Person | How can I add GRUB2 to the Windows bootloader? Or how can I replace GRUB2 with GRUB1? | 21:54 |
| frt975 | @syrius: than use gunzip | 21:55 |
| DrDuck | Izinucs: I find Linux to be an excellent environment, though. I truly am learning twice as fast about things than with Windows. | 21:55 |
| Monotoko | Izinucs, frt975: right, im having Xorg issues, on Ubuntu 8.04 with kernal 26.6.32, its using the VESA driver, i need the driver for Intel Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller in my xorg.conf | 21:55 |
| Izinucs | Some_Person: if you install the latest ubuntu it will replace the windows bootloader with grub2.. if you want windows to be the default boot option then you can massage grub2 to do just that.. | 21:55 |
| mkanyicy | Some_Person, why do you want to do that? | 21:55 |
| Some_Person | lzinucs: Not what I want | 21:55 |
| Some_Person | mkanyicy: Because only the Windows loader can boot to XP and Vista separately | 21:56 |
| balsaq | how do i change defaults in openbox? | 21:56 |

| Monotoko | frt975, do you know who is? because im getting 0 response on the ubuntu forums too | 21:57 |
| mkanyicy | Some_Person, I dont understand the 'separately' part | 21:57 |
| Izinucs | Monotoko: there should be an intel driver in the repos if it's not already installed.. getting it activated is simply replacing "vesa" with "intel" in xorg.cof | 21:57 |
| Izinucs | *xorg.conf | 21:57 |
| Izinucs | Monotoko: then restarting X | 21:57 |
| Izinucs | Monotoko: or logging out and back in again.... | 21:57 |
| Some_Person | mkanyicy: 2 different entries -- as when you install Vista, Vista's bootloader takes over XP's regardless of anything | 21:58 |
| Monotoko | Izinucs, how do i check if the intel driver is downloaded? | 21:58 |

| mkanyicy | Some_Person, and grub2? | 21:58 |
| Izinucs | Monotoko: go to System>Admin>synaptic package manager and search for Intel.. somewhere it will show up | 21:58 |
| danbhfive | Monotoko: why are you running .32 kernel on 8.04? | 21:58 |
| Some_Person | mkanyicy: I know how to add GRUB1 to Vista's bootloader -- it's very easy. But it doesn't seem to work for GRUB2 | 21:58 |
| Monotoko | danbhfive, im running a .64 kernal | 21:59 |
| Monotoko | ohhh | 21:59 |
| * Izinucs thinks that's an excellent question from danbhfive | 21:59 | |
| Monotoko | il explain | 21:59 |
| Some_Person | mkanyicy: GRUB2 would have a combined entry for Windows, where I would have to select between XP and Vista (with Vista's loader) | 21:59 |
| Monotoko | 8.10 and further dont work very well, have major issues with wireless and graphics | 21:59 |

| Monotoko | so i kept 8.04...and just upgraded the kernal | 22:00 |
| Monotoko | so my wifi would work nicely | 22:00 |
| ThatGuyOverThere | Does anybody here use Thunderbird? I want it to integrate with my Gnome theme and my Compiz animations, but... it doesn't. | 22:00 |
| Izinucs | Monotoko: this should be solved in 10.04.. | 22:00 |
| Some_Person | mkanyicy: So how can I add GRUB2 to Vista's loader or how can I wipe GRUB2 and install GRUB1? | 22:00 |
| danbhfive | Monotoko: if you can afford to, I suggest you try out the alpha of 10.04, since that is where the work is going to getting 2.6.32 working | 22:00 |
| TLUL | My logout button on the top panel is gone... | 22:01 |

| Some_Person | usser: They are, but Vista stupidly installed it's loader to the XP partition. Don't ask why | 22:20 |
| Monotoko | _dreamy, you would probably need to upgrade your graphics driver for that rather than software | 22:21 |
| danbhfive | Some_Person: aye, if you are sure that grub1 can do two entries, go for it. I just figured that grub1 and 2 werent that much different in that regard, both would chainload to the windows bootloader. there might be a factoid | 22:21 |
| _dreamy | ok Monotoko | 22:21 |
| airtonix | LuciusMare, depends on what you desire from a image viewer i suppose | 22:21 |

| Monotoko | danbhfive, he will get an error booting XP | 22:21 |
| usser | Some_Person, doesnt vista nowadays create a small boot partition at the begging of the disk? 7 does not sure about vista | 22:21 |
| Some_Person | danbhfive: GRUB1 can't do two entries either, but I know how to boot to GRUB1 from the Vista Loader, and it doesn't seem to work for GRUB2 | 22:21 |
| Some_Person | usser: 7 doesn't do that either | 22:21 |
| usser | Some_Person, well over here it does. | 22:22 |

| Some_Person | TLUL: I don't want this more complicated than it already is | 22:22 |
| Monotoko | _dreamy, it depends on what graphics card you have, usually you must find it yourself though | 22:23 |
| TLUL | Some_Person: Well, maybe we will have to wait until GRUB is capable of loading Windows. | 22:23 |
| Some_Person | TLUL: GRUB1 worked very nicely for what I wanted since I first installed ubuntu back in 2005 | 22:23 |

| BluesKaj | TLUL, grub2 doesn't see both windows partitions ? , that's surprising ..maybe there are too many older kernels in the list and the 2nd windows partition is below the menu window | 22:31 |
| TLUL | BluesKaj: GRUB2 doesn't look at the partitions. It can't load Windows directly. | 22:31 |
| Craig_Dem | I do that using compiz. | 22:31 |
| TLUL | BluesKaj: It loads the Windows loader. And the Windows loader took over so it could choose which Windows to boot. | 22:31 |
| TLUL | BluesKaj: There is only one Windows loader on the system. He wants to either make that loader be default, and load GRUB, OR have two Windows loaders: one for each WinOS. | 22:32 |
| BluesKaj | TLUL, so whats the problem, it's a small price to pay for having 2 windows partitions | 22:32 |

| northern_deer | mkanyicy, http://paste.ubuntu.com/366486/ | 23:03 |
| acicula | lonnix: missing border windows typically means your windowmanager crashed, how do you get them back? | 23:03 |
| acicula | mkanyicy: how are you upgrading? | 23:03 |
| airtonix | lonnix, so you can't get the gnome run dialog box to show (alt + f2 by default ) | 23:04 |
| BenB | acicula: yes, that's my problem, no documentation on that. (I also think kubuntu is irrelevant) | 23:04 |
| mkanyicy | acicula, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 23:04 |

| Daughain | Can someone tel me if there is a veraion of ubuntu dedicated to media like music and movies? | 23:04 |

| lonnix | acicula: thats the problem, my manager hangs on startup every time, i don't know how to fix that | 23:05 |
| Monotoko | Daughain, medibuntu | 23:05 |
| BenB | acicula: yes, that's how I did it previously. but on ubuntu 9.10, there is no xorg.conf at all, much less a device section, that's my problem. | 23:05 |
| airtonix | lonnix, have you tried using the background terminals (ctrl + alt + f2-7) | 23:05 |

| Pixar | Hi, i've recently noticed a lot of port scans from a lot of different countries on my router log. I'm on ubuntu with default no firewall, should I be concerned ? I mean, the router should block anything, even DDOS right? Is there anything that I could monitor my ubuntu? a live system log just in case, i think i saw something like that on a screenshot in the past. | 23:13 |
| Pixar | I;m a noob | 23:13 |
| acicula | Pixar: the scans terminate at your router? | 23:13 |
| erUSUL | BlueSherpa: rally dunno; if the patition is gpt it should support those sizes | 23:13 |
| Pixar | what do you mean | 23:13 |
| erUSUL | !lucid | kunze | 23:14 |
| ubottu | kunze: 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 | 23:14 |

| kunze | Thanks ubottu | 23:14 |
| BlueSherpa | erUSUL: k, that helps - good to know that I'm moving in the right direction hehe | 23:14 |
| mkanyicy | northern_deer, backup your boot.ini file and then open it with gedit and make it look like this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/366495/ | 23:14 |
| acicula | Pixar: probably not, most routers are actually just NAT devices where only the router is publicly reachable from the internet | 23:14 |
| kunze | *thanks erUSUL | 23:14 |
| erUSUL | Pixar: the router is filtering the attacks no need for extra fw in ubuntu. but you can put one if you want | 23:15 |
| erUSUL | !firewall | 23:15 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 23:15 |
| acicula | if you have an ip that starts with 192. (on your local computer) then you arent reachable in principle from the internet anyway | 23:15 |

| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:31 |
| Sensiva | acicula it was working for me too, but I just rebooted my pc now after 6 days uptime, and it says No Valid Modes | 23:31 |
| erUSUL | Ganang: in the audio preferences of skype can you make it use pulseaudio? | 23:31 |
| Sensiva | I thought that curse is over | 23:31 |
| trix_ | was once given ssh access to a server and while i was connected the server owner was able to type as me | 23:31 |
| Sensiva | :\ | 23:31 |
| trix_ | how could this be done? | 23:31 |
| northern_deer | mkanyicy, maybe grub can somehow affect windows' loader? | 23:31 |
| cjae | Can I adjust the nice valve for a virus scan, so it doesnt bog down system while using it? I am scanning an external ntfs drive that will be going on a doze machine | 23:31 |
| acicula | Sensiva: on the screen?, try switching to a VT , ctrl-alt-F1 and back alt-f7 a few times | 23:32 |
| trix_ | like for example , i would type a question in the command prompt, and the guy would erase what i typed and answer my question | 23:32 |
| Sensiva | acicula Do you mean restarting gdm few times? | 23:32 |
| acicula | trix_: screen | 23:32 |
| trix_ | any suggestions ? | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | cjae: renice ? | 23:32 |
| jrib | trix_: why not just ask him? | 23:32 |
| cjae | erUSUL: not sure what you mean | 23:33 |
| erUSUL | trix_: probably he used GNU Screen | 23:33 |
| erUSUL | cjae: man renice | 23:33 |
| trix_ | jrib : i cant find him atm | 23:33 |
| Ganang | erUSUL: yes my only option is PulseAudio server actually | 23:33 |
| === aladim is now known as good | ||
| trix_ | isnt screen for keeping applications in the background ? | 23:33 |
| jrib | trix_: screen is for more than that | 23:33 |
| trix_ | so i logged in into a screen sesstion? | 23:33 |
| jrib | trix_: that would be one way | 23:34 |
| trix_ | ok thanks i'll check it | 23:34 |
| erUSUL | Ganang: but the micropphone does not appear? checkd volume levels with pavucontrol ? | 23:34 |
| acicula | screen is a virtual console people can attach and detach to, sortof | 23:34 |
| cjae | erUSUL: oh that it the controlling app, cant I just do it from htop too | 23:34 |
| erUSUL | cjae: dunno; never used htop for that | 23:35 |
| mkanyicy | northern_deer, try modifying your menu.lst to be like this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/366501/ | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | cjae: but probably the problem is the disk io not the cpu .... | 23:35 |
| cjae | erUSUL: that what I was just going to ask | 23:35 |
| lonnix | acicula: all i've done in terms of graphics is change the background and set a theme using a built in one from system->preferences->appearences | 23:35 |
| lonnix | i do have dual monitors too | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | cjae: ionice exist but i dunno if you can re-ionice a process | 23:35 |
| jeke | In my /etc/rc1.d dir i have a syslink called K84ssh -> ../init.d/ssh. Will ssh start when i reboot the system? | 23:36 |
| Ganang | erUSUL: here is the thing under pavucontrol i go to "Volume Control", after "Input devices" tab, and there is my microfone, working great. Should i do something else? Also in pavucontrol -> recording volume i can see it capturing | 23:36 |
| cjae | erUSUL: any other suggestion, besides do it later | 23:36 |
| Ganang | erUSUL: did i forget anything? | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | Ganang: not that i can see. sorry for not being of much help | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | cjae: you can use ionice in an already running process | 23:37 |
| Sensiva | Any one here has been through a problem with Intel this week? | 23:37 |
| acicula | lonnix: err and what does it say in visual appearancs ? | 23:37 |
| jrib | Sensiva: you need to be more specific... | 23:37 |
| acicula | lonnix: i mean visual efects | 23:37 |
| ramiro | hi | 23:37 |
| Ganang | erUSUL: thanks for you help anyway. | 23:37 |
| erUSUL | Ganang: np | 23:37 |
| lonnix | acicula: it says none | 23:38 |
| erUSUL | !hi | ramiro | 23:38 |
| ubottu | ramiro: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 23:38 |
| Sensiva | jrib my display was working fine for the past 6 days, and I just rebooted my pc now, and its giving me an error "No Valid Modes" | 23:38 |
| acicula | lonnix: hmm weird, can you try reverting the changes to theme and bg and see if that helps? | 23:38 |
| ramiro | It seems I've deleted all of /lib. so nothing runs anymore =). what's the proper recovery procedure? | 23:38 |
| acicula | ramiro: rescue cd, backup, reinstall | 23:38 |
| usser | ramiro, there's none :) | 23:38 |
| usser | ramiro, well what acicula said | 23:38 |
| erUSUL | ramiro: i'm sorry to say that you will have to reinstall | 23:39 |
| jrib | Sensiva: ask the channel but include information like ubuntu version, what video card, where exactly do you get that error, etc | 23:39 |
| lonnix | acicula: i think i got it, i tried to switch from none to medium and it failed, but when it reverted it put it back | 23:39 |
| lonnix | thanks | 23:39 |
| Sensiva | ok :D | 23:39 |
| ramiro | I only have an ssh access open to the machine. I can't even open new ssh accesses. | 23:39 |
| acicula | lonnix: great :) | 23:39 |
| lnx4ver | does ext4 exhibit some performance regression in karmic compared to ext3, reading from some articles in phoronix website its seems that there are some regression in ext4 from 2.6.31 kernels | 23:39 |
| acicula | ramiro: you cant do anything from the running bash shell | 23:40 |
| Code_Bleu_ | 8.10 slow boot, 9.04 WAY faster, 9.10 promised to be faster, but actually was A LOT slower. Will they fix it to where 10.04 is way faster to boot? I went from 12sec boot, to 1 min 12 sec. | 23:40 |
| acicula | ramiro: as you cant start new programs | 23:40 |
| lonnix | acicula: well, after restarting, its doing the same thing. is there a way to make it so i don't have to do that every time? | 23:40 |
| ramiro | acicula: I can't even ls... | 23:40 |
| acicula | ramiro: ls is aprogram | 23:40 |
| acicula | no lib | 23:40 |
| acicula | no program | 23:40 |
| acicula | ramiro: rescue cd, backup, reinstall | 23:40 |
| FloodBot4 | acicula: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:40 |
| Sensiva | Hey All, I have a Dell Optiplex 755 workstation with Intel Q35 VGA chipset, and using Karmic amd64, everything was working fine, but I rebooted my pc now , and xorg is giving an error of No Valid Modes and suggesting to run in low graphix mood, any suggestions? | 23:41 |
| === Code_Bleu_ is now known as Code_Bleu | ||
| ramiro | so, the plan is: I close the ssh windows I have opened, and actually enjoy my vacation. in a week's time I get back home and reinstall =) | 23:41 |
| acicula | lonnix: err i dont know really why its crashing on login | 23:41 |
| erUSUL | ramiro: sound like a plan | 23:41 |
| jolaren | How do I edit upstart jobs? I have a commando running in the startup that I want to be ran as root | 23:41 |
| ramiro | that's a nice way to force me to actually enjoy my vacations | 23:41 |
| acicula | lonnix: in a console you can type metacity --replace to restart the wm | 23:41 |
| acicula | lonnix: but that wont prevent it from crashing on login | 23:42 |
| erUSUL | jolaren: not all jobs are handled by upstart yet. which one are you talking about | 23:42 |
| erUSUL | ? | 23:42 |
| ramiro | thanks guys, I'll be back in a week or so to see if there's any way to just reinstall the packages I had installed instead of having to reformat | 23:42 |
| acicula | !upstart | jolaren | 23:42 |
| ubottu | jolaren: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 23:42 |
| lonnix | well, i know what to look for now, thanks | 23:42 |
| acicula | ramiro: you cant reinstall packages without /lib, as apt-get and all the subsystems dont work. | 23:42 |
| Sensiva | jolaren you may find startup applications in System > Preferences > Startup Applications | 23:42 |
| jolaren | erUSUL; mythtv-backend | 23:42 |
| jolaren | Sensiva; It's a server | 23:43 |
| ojo | hey everyone, I have encrypted my hard drive but now I the drive is mounted in \media and has really weard name the UUID I think, Is there a way that I can rename it | 23:43 |
| Sensiva | ok | 23:43 |
| ramiro | acicula: but is it possible to install from the live cd and reinstall the packages to /mnt/oldbuntu or whatever? | 23:43 |
| ramiro | because all the apt information is still there in /etc or whatever | 23:43 |
| ramiro | (I mean boot from the livecd and...) | 23:44 |
| acicula | ramiro: possible yeah but not very practical | 23:44 |
| ramiro | oh well... I'm off. | 23:44 |
| ramiro | thanks | 23:44 |
| acicula | gl | 23:44 |
| electrofreak | acicula, oh crap... lame doesn't convert from flac? dang it. | 23:44 |
| cjae | erUSUL: TIA | 23:45 |
| northern_deer | mkanyicy, again almost the same, but this time it didn't ask to press Ctrl+Alt+Del, it tried to boot from dvd, maybe crashed, and rebooted | 23:45 |
| acicula | electrofreak: i dont know anything about encoding/recoding | 23:45 |
| cjae | erUSUL: oops thanks | 23:45 |
| electrofreak | ok | 23:45 |
| erUSUL | cjae: yw ;P | 23:45 |
| acicula | my laptop is so poorly build that i cant run it over 800Mhz without overheating so, no encoding for me :) | 23:45 |
| ojo | hey everyone, I have encrypted my external hard drive and now the drive is mounted in \media the directory has really weard name. The UUID of the drive I think. Is there a way that to rename it? | 23:46 |
| acicula | ojo: by default the name of the partition is used as a label afaik | 23:46 |
| acicula | you can rename the directory where it is mounted by specifying something else in fstab i guess | 23:47 |
| ojo | acicula os w8, if I rename it with e2label and remount it, it should work? | 23:48 |
| acicula | e2label renames the disk | 23:48 |
| lnx4ver | I'd like to convert my ext3 partition to ext4 but I want to know from users experience, does ext4 exhibit some performance regression in karmic compared to ext3, reading from some articles in phoronix website its seems that there are regressions in ext4 starting from 2.6.31 kernels? | 23:48 |
| acicula | wouldnt do that if its encrypted | 23:48 |
| acicula | lnx4ver: depends on workload? | 23:48 |
| ojo | acicula: why? | 23:48 |
| acicula | ojo: depending on what encryption program you used to crypt the disk the label may be revelant? | 23:49 |
| erUSUL | lnx4ver: that was probably becouse ext4 in those kernels enabled hardware barriers by default | 23:49 |
| mkanyicy | northern_deer, im clueless now | 23:49 |
| lnx4ver | acicula I use it as a desktop system | 23:50 |
| poseidon | What are some good 3d games to play on linux? | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | lnx4ver: see the mount man page the ext4 section | 23:50 |
| lnx4ver | erUSUL barrier option is not used by default in ubuntu? | 23:50 |
| tgraham | I have a fresh 8.10 server install. I created an account during the install, but every time I try to log in it says Login incorrect. What am I doing wrong? | 23:51 |
| acicula | poseidon: nexuiz , enemy territory, quake versions ? | 23:51 |
| erUSUL | lnx4ver: dunno; i use a custom kernel and $ cat /proc/mounts | grep ext4 --> /dev/sdb6 /media/MEDIA1 ext4 rw,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0 | 23:51 |
| acicula | tgraham: wrong password? capslock? | 23:51 |
| tgraham | Nope | 23:52 |
| poseidon | acicula, I couldn't find anyplace to buy enemy territory | 23:52 |
| erUSUL | !games > poseidon | 23:52 |
| ubottu | poseidon, please see my private message | 23:52 |
| tgraham | I've reinstalled 3 time, each time, same problem. | 23:52 |
| guest | E: Package libdvdcss2 has no installation candidate <<< what repo am i missing ? | 23:52 |
| acicula | you are logging in how? | 23:52 |
| acicula | guest: medibuntu? | 23:52 |

| lnx4ver | erUSUL ok | 23:52 |

| ubottu | guest: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 23:52 |

| CraigGB | !games > CraigGB | 23:53 |
| ubottu | CraigGB, please see my private message | 23:53 |
| tgraham | The user I created during the install process. | 23:53 |
| acicula | tgraham: you could force a root shell by booting the rescue option and dropping to a shell | 23:53 |
| acicula | but i cant think of any other reason for a failed login on a fresh install then entering a wrong username/passwd combo :/ | 23:54 |
| tgraham | I've done that, then tried a passwd to change the users password, but still no go. | 23:54 |
| acicula | hurr | 23:54 |
| acicula | full install on one partition i assume? | 23:55 |
| acicula | any errors in auth.log/syslog? is there a crypted passwd in /etc/shadow ? | 23:55 |
| tgraham | Minimal install on the guided partion. | 23:55 |
| tgraham | Let me check those. | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: 8.10 server? that's what you put | 23:56 |
| acicula | yeah that shouldnt give any issues | 23:56 |
| tgraham | Yes, 8.10 server | 23:56 |
| tgraham | amd64 ISO | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: uhmm that will run out of support at the end of April | 23:56 |
| tgraham | VMWare server is the host. | 23:56 |
| acicula | sebsebseb: LTS is five years for server | 23:56 |
| tgraham | 9 doesn't play nice with what I'm doing. | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | acicula: 8.10 is not a LTS | 23:56 |
| acicula | sebsebseb: my mistake, misread, that is correct :) | 23:57 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: 8.04 is LTS not 8.10 | 23:57 |
| acicula | sebsebseb: he never said it was | 23:57 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: 10.04 is next LTS. ,but your doing server OS in virtual machines? | 23:57 |
| tgraham | Yes | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | acicula: true | 23:58 |
| cjae | erUSUL: so using ionice to reduce disk activity from scanner is not really an option, unless it is idle? | 23:58 |
| lnx4ver | lnx4ver ext4 seems to have its benefits (less fragmentation, faster boot) but I have some doubts has it still look like it is not feature complete and could one can get problem with using barrier=0 | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: what's your actsaul host OS? | 23:58 |
| tgraham | ESX4 | 23:58 |
| erUSUL | cjae: !? can you rephrase? | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: and why are you doing Ubuntu in a server machine? ESX4 uhmm that sounds like the virtual machine software, not the actsaul operating system it's running on | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: why are you doing server in a virtual machine, above? | 23:58 |
| acicula | ESX is a virtualisation approach, i use i too, though just esx3.5 | 23:59 |
| tgraham | I need 10 Ubuntu servers, I have 2 ESX4 servers to put them on. | 23:59 |
| tgraham | ESX4 is the OS. | 23:59 |
| sebsebseb | tgraham: 8.04 server that makes sense, 8.10 not really when it's on the verge of running out of support. | 23:59 |
| tgraham | If you can call it that. | 23:59 |
| sebsebseb | !server | tgraham | 23:59 |
| ubottu | tgraham: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 8.04. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ and https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/index.html - Use the #ubuntu-server channel for support | 23:59 |
| acicula | tgraham: can you try the 8.04 LTS, see if you get the same problem? it sreally weird though | 23:59 |
