| Magnesium | naut: He's still joining and quitting repeatedly | 00:04 |
| Magnesium | naut: kinda annoying | 00:04 |
| Jordan_U | jazz, So you want the entries for the other install to not go away again after you run update-grub? If not then I don't understand your queston. | 00:04 |

| kelopez | how do I create a swap partition after I installed [K]Ubuntu? | 00:04 |
| Gorash | howdy people!! I need a quick help. I am going absolutely nuts here! I have a Logitech Optical keyboard and my qoutes show up like this: ¨¨ ¨¨". I have tried 150*50^5 | 00:04 |
| Jordan_U | jazz, That is, after you run update-grub without the other drive plugged in | 00:05 |
| Gorash | settings.... any knows how to solve? | 00:05 |
| Magnesium | nvm, y'all must have kicked him already | 00:05 |
| naut | kelopez: you could use gparted to create the swap partition, and then edit fstab to mount it as swap on boot. | 00:05 |

| nickie | phew! i was really stressed there for a minute...... | 00:05 |
| kelopez | ok naut, thank you :) | 00:05 |

| jrib | KaOSoFt: it should tell you that when you install it on recent ubuntu versions | 00:15 |
| KaOSoFt | When is it supposed to tell me? I didn't see any advice. Let me check the Synaptic description. | 00:17 |
| jrib | KaOSoFt: it uses debconf. What version of ubuntu is this? | 00:17 |
| KaOSoFt | 9.10 | 00:17 |
| jrib | KaOSoFt: hrmm, maybe it only works in a terminal, I haven't used synaptic in a long time | 00:18 |
| KaOSoFt | Yeah, it must be. | 00:18 |

| unop | Kismet, is your keyring password the same as your login password? | 00:30 |
| Kismet | unop, i think so,.. i just have one i guess | 00:30 |
| sysdoc | One other thing... I have the /home on a separate partition on drive sdb can the installer still copy the existing home to the new drive and mount it? | 00:31 |

| skierkyle | The raid is all of / | 00:36 |
| anon | hey guys..i am about to dump windows from my internal laptop drive and was wandering if I could just migrate my ubuntu over to my internal from my external HD..so i dont have to download anything all over again | 00:36 |
| === waltercool_ is now known as waltercool | ||
| anon | is there a way to do that or not? | 00:37 |
| simmaster | @skierkyle Well, if you copy from the external hard drive to the software RAID, it should sync between the RAID partitions | 00:37 |
| LasBuntu | where do I put an alias for root? | 00:37 |
| Jordan_U | skierkyle, No, mountpoints are just a path you can use to access another filesystem, mounting a filesystem to a mountpoint in / does not copy anything to the actual disk that / is mounted from | 00:37 |
| LasBuntu | I want to make sure I don't do something stupid like run irc as root :) | 00:38 |
| johntramp | hi i am after an app to draw a quick graph, is there anything easy to use for this | 00:38 |
| Jordan_U | LasBuntu, The easiest way to do that is to never start a root shell | 00:38 |
| jrib | johntramp: what kind of graph? | 00:38 |
| skierkyle | simmaster: Ok, so if I just mount the drive in /media/whatever it wont sync between the internal RAID drives? | 00:38 |
| LasBuntu | Jordan_U: true, but that's a bad habit I have not yet broken :) | 00:39 |

| simmaster | @skierkyle No | 00:39 |
| skierkyle | simmaster: Great thanks for the answer | 00:39 |
| simmaster | @anon You'd need to set up Syslinux on the external hard drive, copy the setup files, configure Syslinux and boot from there | 00:39 |
| jrib | johntramp: gnuplot, R, sage, octave, scilab, maxima... | 00:40 |

| TieDyeSmilez | thats illegal correct? | 01:12 |
| Aijse | nad_, googling for those lines comes up with similar probslems and forum posts. some people clim to have found fixes by d-loading certain packages | 01:12 |
| TieDyeSmilez | ticks me off due to it defeats the purpose of freeware | 01:12 |
| happyface | thanks bshotts i'll check it out | 01:13 |

| almark1 | Is there a way to do this adjust the screen from linux and not have to use the monitor front panel, I am using a CRT | 01:13 |
| jrib | TieDyeSmilez: it's not illegal | 01:13 |
| Aijse | nad_, for example: libqt4-gui, but not alot of confirmence | 01:13 |
| TieDyeSmilez | i know its freely to distribute | 01:13 |
| jrib | TieDyeSmilez: amazon sells ubuntu too, it's perfectly fine | 01:14 |
| TieDyeSmilez | but key word free | 01:14 |
| jrib | !free | TieDyeSmilez | 01:14 |
| ubottu | TieDyeSmilez: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 01:14 |
| TieDyeSmilez | damn its so wrong lol | 01:14 |
| Merther | Tabmow So basically just modify the passive port range and add it to the firewall/router. I'll try that. Thanks | 01:14 |
| jrib | TieDyeSmilez: free doesn't mean free in cost | 01:14 |
| maxtor | hi there, i've found my self a 4GB sd card, i want to download a ubuntu distro and install off the sd card to my harddrive as i have no cd drive to install off. what exactly should i download, ive already downloaded linux i386 cd version, tryed to extract it to the sd card but the bios wont boot off that. | 01:14 |
| maxtor | any ideas? | 01:14 |
| TieDyeSmilez | yet when someone just downloads from the site and sells copies thats worng imo | 01:14 |
| Blue112 | When I try to load alsamixer I get this error message : cannot load mixer controls: Invalid argument ; What can I do ? | 01:15 |
| jrib | TieDyeSmilez: why? Maybe someone needs a cd for some reason and is willing to pay for it. As long as the buyer is aware they can download free of cost themselves, I don't see what's wrong with it | 01:15 |
| mrpink57 | maxtor: are you in windows now? | 01:15 |
| maxtor | mrpink, no linux :( | 01:16 |
| TieDyeSmilez | yet what if the buyer isnt aware its freely dis | 01:16 |
| maxtor | ubuntu 5.04 | 01:16 |
| mrpink57 | maxtor: I think you could just update your system to the latest | 01:16 |
| maxtor | need to get newer system running | 01:16 |
| TieDyeSmilez | i dunno i just wanted to check tho thank you for your time | 01:16 |

| Aijse | nad_ there is a safe mode, but I have the feeling the driver just doesnt support your card at this moment | 01:28 |

How do I do this and if I stop blacklisting ath5, will the card be recognized? | 01:31 |
| fxhp | Doesn't work on liveCD either | 01:31 |
| nad_ | Aijse, how do i get to the safe mode? i looked at the ati ref. that the forums point to, and they say its supported, and that the newest one supports as well, however i want to try to get it working, and i get way badly stuck once i restart.. | 01:31 |
| Aijse | nad_ If you reboot you can select with arrow keys boot safemode | 01:32 |
| nad_ | aijse, sorry to lean on you so much, i am learning and want to experiment, but i have much to learn, if it was too easy i wouldnt be here... | 01:32 |

| Dr_Willis | codebrainz: for boot splash.. i have to say.. why bother. useless eyecandy thats goiung to be radically changed in the next release.. good luck. | 02:02 |
| Darknes | I think one of their hotfixes did it.. as it was fine before. | 02:02 |
| Darknes | Any suggestions for good apps I should get? | 02:04 |
| hlx | woot. Reason i switched to ubuntu was that my dll-cache in windows file protection got corrupted, and unlike xp you can't sfc /purgecache and reload from cd. You have to format. So goodbye windows. | 02:04 |
| Darknes | It says compiz is installed by default, so I'm good here.. | 02:04 |
| hlx | Pidgin for IM, otherwise depends on what you do really | 02:04 |
| Darknes | I still have to use Windows, for games and such. | 02:04 |

| Darknes | I did hear about wine? or something | 02:05 |
| hlx | lots of fiddling with wine to make it work | 02:05 |
| Darknes | But, it's not great. A friend uses that to run mIRC, and it's kinda borkish. | 02:05 |
| Samp | why would you use wine to run mirc instead of running a native ubuntu app? | 02:06 |
| Darknes | Although, it seems computer companies are moving towards *nix, so maybe windows will go away again. | 02:06 |
| AshishMalik | Darknes, You can get linux based games like nexuiz, wolfenstein etc . . . | 02:06 |
| Dr_Willis | IRC is the ultimate game. | 02:06 |
| Darknes | I just lost the game. | 02:06 |
| Darknes | It makes me laugh though, my computer illiterate friends think Mac cannot ever get viruses.. | 02:07 |
| AshishMalik | Can't say that for windows users though . . . | 02:08 |
| AshishMalik | they get tons of viruses like every day . | 02:08 |
| Darknes | Depends I suppose. Of the viruses I have gotten, the worse was some stupid fake firewall, which my dad installed -.- | 02:09 |
| AshishMalik | cause of windows getting so viruses is that the basic root structure on which windows is built is flawed | 02:10 |

| MrBob | and due to that my battery life is hardly 8 hours, i was wondering about BIOS however i am not aware as to how to update it | 02:16 |
| codebrainz | MrBob, it says here "can require BIOS update plus configuration" - https://wiki.edubuntu.org/LaptopTestingTeam/AcerTimeline4810TZ | 02:17 |
| Scunizi | almark1: you haven't said what the problem is | 02:18 |
| MrBob | thanks code, however pardon me being naiive but i am new to linux (about a few months) and how would i go about updating my bios? | 02:18 |
| codebrainz | MrBob, it's manufacturer/computer specific, outside of the operating system | 02:19 |
| almark1 | I'm sorry, the problem is Ubuntu Hardy will not mount the DVD | 02:19 |
| MrBob | i see code, so is this something i can find on this site or do you have somewhere i can turn to for help? | 02:20 |
| codebrainz | MrBob, http://www.acer.ca/acer/service.do?LanguageISOCtxParam=en&miu10einu24.current.attN2B2F2EEF=3751&sp=page15e&ctx2.c2att1=27&miu10ekcond13.attN2B2F2EEF=3751&CountryISOCtxParam=CA&ctx1.att21k=1&CRC=719687231 | 02:20 |
| codebrainz | make sure that's the right model though | 02:20 |
| almark1 | Scunizi: when I go to put the disk in in the sources and press the button, it tells me that it cant mount or I don't have a Ubuntu based disto, something is very wrong, I use 64 studio but it still suppose to work from the DVD | 02:20 |
| Scunizi | almark1: well. it seems you have two issues.. the mounting of the dvd and updating which can't be done with the dvd.. unless it's a recent download of the 8.04.4 dvd.. did you get the dvd or cd of ubuntu? | 02:20 |
| pwasek | i setup a pptp server on my ubuntu server. I am able to connect with the user name and passowrd but i am only able to connect to my ubuntu server i cant get to any other servers or workstations any suggestions | 02:21 |

| Samp | cool. | 02:21 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ I know its not supported by Ubuntu but the commands are the same, its a Studio based 32bit linux based on Hardy Repos | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | almark1: the desktop cd/dvd i dont think you can use as a repostory to upgrade. The alternative installer cd you cd | 02:22 |
| Scunizi | almark1: it's near impossible to diagnose another system.. even if it's based on ubuntu. often it's different on the backend.. sorry. | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | you can use to upgrade/as a repo | 02:22 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ this sounds like I will have to redo the whole system sigh lol | 02:22 |
| MrBob | okay code, so i am on the page with the BIOS and which one should i updater to? there are four, all of which are newer than my version | 02:23 |
| Scunizi | almark1: why did you choose that distro instead of ubuntu? | 02:23 |
| sebsebseb | MrBob: It seems that using Linux to Flash a BIOS on a lap top would be a bad idea http://apcmag.com/flashrom-091-hunts-down-more-chips-in-the-wild.htm | 02:24 |
| MrBob | ok so instead i should go on windows and update the bios? | 02:24 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ because Ubuntu Studio wasn't letting me update and it broke when I did, if something usualy is funny with a disto I jump around lol, im sure millions of Linux uses do that :) | 02:24 |
| codebrainz | MrBob, no idea, it's mfg specific, it used to be run on floppies, now probably from windows or something, it should be documented somewhere, or call them | 02:25 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ I think its time for another jump | 02:25 |
| sebsebseb | MrBob: Well read the article and you tell me? However yes it's probably better to use Windows to Flash the BIOS. | 02:25 |
| Scunizi | almark1: might be.. do you have a preference for gnome or kde? the latest kubuntu is pretty polished currently | 02:25 |
| MrBob | alright cause as you can imagine running at 100% brightness burns the battery like there is no tommorow | 02:25 |

| sebsebseb | Xrossfire: security, it's immune to Windows malware | 02:26 |
| Xrossfire | k | 02:27 |
| sebsebseb | Xrossfire: also being infected with Linux malware is rather rare | 02:27 |
| MrBob | hmm alright well thanks for the information all | 02:27 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ Better stick with my Gnome, the biggest problem is I have switched Distos since 2005 off and on and use Windows at the same time because that is my main OS but anyway its usally the sound config problems that get me and I have to find something else that works | 02:27 |
| shadowwulf | what is the command to move everything from one folder to another ? | 02:27 |
| Scunizi | Xrossfire: the ability to do what and when you want on your system without paying, asking, or breaking any eula's | 02:27 |
| sebsebseb | Xrossfire: software freedom would be another advantage of course | 02:27 |
| sebsebseb | !freedom | Xrossfire | 02:27 |
| ubottu | Xrossfire: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 02:27 |

| Xrossfire | its free? | 02:27 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ The fact is no matter what disto I have tried Jackd is always my problem | 02:27 |
| Xrossfire | so its like windows or mac with more features? | 02:28 |
| Scunizi | almark1: ah | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | Xrossfire: Ubuntu is free as in price, and most programs in it and that you can easilly get for it are free as in software freedom as well | 02:28 |
| Munchkinguy | I am having trouble building the Raptor menu for KDE in Karmic. Could someone please help? | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | Xrossfire: It's like Mac, meaning not all Windows programs are going to just work on it | 02:29 |
| Xrossfire | ok | 02:29 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ I'm thinking of trying Jacklab even though there are no more repos and no more forum but that is off topic | 02:29 |

| p3rror | hello | 02:29 |
| p3rror | is there any html/php editor for gnome | 02:29 |
| Xrossfire | i was just wondering cause i want to get a new OS and win7 is too expensive | 02:29 |
| jken146 | Xrossfire: The wikipedia article on Ubuntu is a decent explanation of what it is | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | Xrossfire: There are good alternatives to most popular WIndows programs, plus you can get some working rather well in Wine | 02:29 |
| p3rror | in kde i used quanta | 02:29 |

| shadowwulf | Xcrossfire: if i am not mistaken there is something called wine and/or playonlinux for windows programs to work on linux | 02:30 |
| shadowwulf | what is the command to move everything from one folder to another ? | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | xangua: sure, but most people won't understand that | 02:30 |
| xangua | seb | 02:30 |
| Scunizi | Xrossfire: get the live cd and run it direct from your cdrom.. try it out.. if you like it then install.. if you have winXP or other then Dual boot if you want | 02:30 |
| jken146 | shadowwulf: mv oldDirectory/* newdir/ | 02:30 |
| AshishMalik | shadowwulf, mv -f /folder /destination | 02:30 |
| xangua | sebsebseb: then you are gonna lie to them¿ | 02:30 |
| Xrossfire | k ill try it out | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | xangua: I got the bot to give him the feredom link, which explains it | 02:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Xrossfire: theres also dozens of linux distros to try | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | !wine | Xrossfire | 02:30 |

| AshishMalik | shadowwulf, well you wanted to move everything | 02:34 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ when I got ahold of Ubuntu I can't remember which one, the cdrom tray kept coming in and out and in and out lol that was odd, but every distro has weird problems lol | 02:34 |
| AshishMalik | or do u want to move just all files in a folder ? | 02:34 |
| AshishMalik | shadowwulf, In that case : mv -f * /destination | 02:35 |
| mezimezim | DIL: thanks, but I would really like to solve my problem, not just switch software | 02:35 |
| mezimezim | Evolution now has a nice import tool for .PST, which I have used to import this particular file, but something seems wrong, and I assume this must be "fixable".... | 02:36 |
| mezimezim | I like Evolution | 02:36 |
| DIL | mezimezim, convert pst to mbox format then import | 02:36 |
| mezimezim | oh! I see... | 02:37 |
| DIL | mezimezim, never mind | 02:37 |
| shadowwulf | ok, how do i move the files in a folder to the root dir of the drive | 02:37 |
| mezimezim | I might just try that then | 02:37 |
| mezimezim | thanks! | 02:37 |
| Scunizi | shadowwulf: be a little more specific.. from where to where | 02:37 |
| AshishMalik | shadowwulf, sudo mv -f * / | 02:37 |
| AshishMalik | shadowwulf, you must be in the folder where d files r | 02:38 |

| Johnny1 | How do I get usb devices to run in wine? | 02:38 |
| jken146 | AshishMalik: No, you don't have to be in any particular directory. | 02:38 |
| Scunizi | shadowwulf: AshishMalik is "exactly" correct however you probably *don't* want to move the files to the actual root.. it's not like a C: drive | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Johnny1: would depend on the usb device you aretalking about | 02:39 |
| shadowwulf | i have a /media/flash drive and on that drive i have a rootfs.cupcake ... i need to move the contents of the folder to the root dir of the flash drive | 02:39 |
| almark1 | Scunizi_ thank you for your info but its time for me to go :) | 02:39 |

| shadowwulf | Scunizi, it has to .. its for android | 02:39 |
| AshishMalik | jken146, if u r in d directory, u just avoid writing the full path to that directory. That's all | 02:39 |
| jken146 | shadowwulf: Ah, ok, so your destination ir /media/flash/ | 02:39 |
| jken146 | er, is | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Johnny1: I dont think you access it directly with wine. You mount it under linux then you access the mounbted location,. | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Johnny1: what app are you trying to use in wine to access it>? | 02:40 |
| Johnny1 | Dr_Willis: i-FunBox | 02:40 |
| shadowwulf | jken146, yes it is ... but i have a rootfs.cupcake folder ... the contents of that folder need to go to the /media/flash | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Johnny1: check the wine app database on that app. it might not work properly in wine. | 02:40 |

| jken146 | harisund1: What do you mean nothing happens? | 02:54 |

| Geoffrey2 | for some reason, I cannot get the CD/DVD creator in Karmic to burn a CD....the burn seems to work, the desktop icon still shows Blank CD-R, and when i click on it I go right back into the CD/DVD creator | 03:34 |
| Berzerker | ardchoille, sed didn't change the links, it outputted everything correctly in the terminal, but nothing in sources.list was changed...is there some sort of option I should be using, or a switch? | 03:34 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: That's why you need the "-i" to "make changes inline": sed -i.backup 's/old text/new text/g' /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:35 |
| Linkadmin | every time i switch user on netbook-remix, gdm runs pm-suspend. Does anyone have any idea why? | 03:36 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: sudo sed -i.backup 's/old text/new text/g' /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:36 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: the ".backup" makes a back up before doing the work just i case | 03:36 |
| Berzerker | ardchoille, doesn't output errors...but changes nothing...maybe I'm spelling something wrong... | 03:36 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: needs sudo | 03:36 |
| sponzor | hi what to use for crash dump? that it captures kernel panic etc..? | 03:36 |
| hlx | is there a guide anywhere to using launchpad? a little convoluted for first time use | 03:37 |
| Berzerker | oh wait that did it | 03:37 |
| Berzerker | ardchoille, no I did sudo, apparently I was reading it wrong | 03:37 |
| ardchoille | ah, ok | 03:37 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: now you need to do: sudo apt-get update | 03:37 |
| metaltothedeath | Hey | 03:37 |
| Berzerker | ardchoille, yup got it, thanks | 03:37 |
| ardchoille | yw | 03:37 |
| metaltothedeath | How do i do the thing | 03:37 |
| * ardchoille has been loving Ubuntu since 2005 | 03:37 | |
| === metaltothedeath is now known as ________________ | ||
| Berzerker | ardchoille, another quick q, how do I upgrade the kernel to .32? | 03:38 |
| === ________________ is now known as ___^___ | ||
| ardchoille | Berzerker: updating the kernel requires: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 03:38 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: That updates to the latest from the repos. Beyond that I can't help because I don't use apps outside the repos | 03:39 |
| Berzerker | k, thanks | 03:39 |
| ardchoille | yw | 03:39 |
| Berzerker | dist-upgrade only gives me 31-19 | 03:39 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: then you may have to compile your own kernel, but that is quite a big job | 03:40 |
| Berzerker | yeah... | 03:40 |
| jken146 | Berzerker: What do you need 32 for btw? | 03:40 |
| Berzerker | I'm sure I'll find some .deb to install | 03:40 |
| Berzerker | jken146, I hear it has a decent speed increases | 03:40 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: I'd be very weary of installing a kernel from a .deb that isn't in your repos | 03:41 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: And it's a bad idea to add mix repos, ie: Karmic/Lucid | 03:41 |
| jken146 | Berzerker: I doubt it's worth the hassle | 03:41 |
| Berzerker | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32/linux-headers-2.6.32-020632-generic_2.6.32-020632_i386.deb | 03:41 |
| Berzerker | directly from ubuntu.. | 03:42 |
| ardchoille | Ah, might be worth a try then | 03:42 |
| Berzerker | http://www.ramoonus.nl/2009/12/03/linux-kernel-2-6-32-installation-guide-for-ubuntu-linux/# | 03:42 |
| Berzerker | if anyone cares | 03:42 |
| nomnex | is X like the Windows kernel? | 03:42 |
| jken146 | You could use apt pinning to get the newer kernel from lucid | 03:42 |
| Berzerker | I'm not running lucid, and upgrade attempt made netbook launcher constantly crash | 03:42 |
| ardchoille | nomnex: x is a windowing system that gnome runs on top of | 03:42 |
| jken146 | but there's no guarantee it wouldn't break things horribly | 03:42 |
| ardchoille | jken146: please don't recommend mixing releases like that (Karmic/Lucid), can cause lots of problems. | 03:43 |
| jken146 | ardchoille: I'm not recommending it. It's probably a very bad idea for something like the kerne; | 03:44 |
| nomnex | ardchoille, I have read on Wikipedia that x was also a server (e.g. Terminal Server Client) | 03:44 |
| ardchoille | yeah | 03:44 |
| nomnex | ardchoille, so without X gnome does "not work"? | 03:44 |
| ardchoille | nomnex: gnome needs x to run | 03:44 |
| happyface | is there a way to hide my terminal actions in a linux terminal? (aka people can't w/who to see what i'm up to) | 03:45 |
| nomnex | ardchoille, last question, what the pending x on Windows if any? | 03:45 |
| ardchoille | nomnex: Please rephrase that, I didn't understand it | 03:45 |
| DavidJHeinrich | hi all, can anyone help me with a problem with ManDVD | 03:46 |
| ardchoille | nomnex: I haven't touched a Microsoft product in 9 years, so I have no idea about Windows OS | 03:46 |
| jken146 | happyface: You can delete your ~/.bash_history file | 03:46 |
| rainy-day | what is a nice looking fontstring for xterm, something similar to konsole default font? | 03:46 |
| nomnex | ardchoille, sorry about it, is there a X (diff name or system) comparable on Windoze? | 03:46 |
| jken146 | happyface: but that won't hide the processes you're running | 03:46 |
| nomnex | ardchoille, ;-) okay no problem | 03:46 |
| happyface | jken146: thanks thats one step :P | 03:46 |
| ardchoille | happyface: iirc, man history tells you how to not record bash history | 03:47 |
| Random832 | rainy-day; the fonts that come with xterm by default are probably the best you're going to get, unless you've got some other bitmap font you're a fan of | 03:47 |
| rainy-day | Random832: doh | 03:47 |
| Berzerker | ardchoille, if I install this kernel version over it, will it recognize updates for it also? | 03:47 |
| cyn23 | help me with my bootsplash resolution please | 03:48 |
| jken146 | nomnex: Windows is monolithic, where GNU is layer-upon-layer. GNOME runs on top of X, which runs on init,... with ther kernel at the bottom (slightly simplified) | 03:48 |
| ardchoille | Berzerker: the package manager is the thing responsible for updates, you installing a package manually may not get updates at all. | 03:48 |
| rainy-day | Ok then.. is there some way to have a konsole or gnome terminal that will have a different icon in taskbar? I need to have a couple terminals that I want to look different from my main terminal | 03:48 |
| jken146 | rainy-day: you can set up multiple profiles in gnome-terminal | 03:49 |
| Random832 | wait a minute... that's conventional wisdom | 03:49 |
| Random832 | i just did a google search and HOLY CRAP | 03:49 |
| Random832 | xterm -fa 'Bitstream Vera Sans Mono' | 03:50 |
| cyn23 | help me with my boot splash resolution please it use to be in 1024x768 with SiS 661fx but 8s now 8x6 with ATI Radeon 9550 | 03:50 |
| cyn23 | help me with my boot splash resolution please it use to be in 1024x768 with SiS 661fx but 8s now 8x6 with ATI Radeon 9550 | 03:50 |
| nomnex | jken146, thanks, I am getting used to the definitions. It means I can change desktop manager (GNOME, KDE) but the underlying will be X for all? and X will also be use remotely (thin-client infrastructure, by example) | 03:50 |
| hlx | you mean, google has something other than sponsored links? :o | 03:50 |
| rainy-day | jken146: how can I start gnome terminal in kubuntu, when I start it I get konsole instead! and I can't change that in its profiles | 03:50 |
| mattgyver | Hey guys, is there a way to recognize 4gb of ram in ubuntu without using the 64bit version? | 03:50 |
| jken146 | rainy-day: then run the one you want with gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=PROFILENAME | 03:50 |
| live_wire | Hey people, I am new to Ubuntu and to linux. I installed version 9.10 with Grub2 on a second partition. All was well until I installed startup-manager and changed my resolution. Now after trying to boot in Ubuntu it brings me to a black screen. | 03:50 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, Yes, use the PAE kernel | 03:50 |
| Random832 | rainy-day; you can set the xterm font to real fonts with -fa instead of -fn | 03:50 |
| ardchoille | Random832: hey, that's the nicest xterm font I've ever seen | 03:50 |
| jken146 | rainy-day: I imagine there is something similar in konsole | 03:50 |
| live_wire | I've gone through several google searches with no luck | 03:50 |
| rainy-day | Random832: that looks awesome! thanks | 03:50 |
| mattgyver | DaemonFC, thanks ill look into it :) | 03:50 |
| Random832 | i never knew that before today | 03:51 |
| ardchoille | Random832: I disliked xterm because of the font until now | 03:51 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, I believe the PAE kernel can address up to 48 GB of RAM | 03:51 |
| jken146 | nomnex: yes, KDE, GNOME< XFCE, etc. will all run on the same X server. And X can be accessed remotely too | 03:51 |
| daya | jken146, any idea to verify that the user password is right or wrong, I am trying to write a bash script to change FTP password via web | 03:52 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, Another thing you could do is use the 64-bit kernel on your 32-bit Ubuntu system | 03:52 |
| mattgyver | DaemonFC, okay.. any idea whats the best most stable method? | 03:52 |
| rainy-day | Random832: and -fs changes size! cool | 03:52 |
| jken146 | daya: No, you can't find out what a password is | 03:52 |
| nomnex | jken146, I can use OpenSSH to rsync or access Dirs/files from the console, but can I use OpenSSH to access a remote machine? | 03:52 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, Use the X86-64 version of Ubuntu is the best thing to do | 03:52 |
| Random832 | daya; you really need to interact with the 'passwd' command | 03:52 |
| DaemonFC | PAE is kind of hacky and may aggravate some 3rd party driver | 03:53 |
| jken146 | nomnex: yes, SSH is used for securely logging in to a remote computer | 03:53 |
| mattgyver | DaemonFC, I would do that but ive just heard there are a lot of application compatibilty issues with the 64bit, and im not really ready to go that route yet | 03:53 |
| DaemonFC | it's also a bit slower than the native addressing in the 64-bit kernel | 03:53 |
| daya | jken146, yes I suppose that, but there is at least some way to do it, may be some perl or python mods | 03:53 |
| nomnex | jken146, thanks | 03:53 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, There are no issues on the X86-64 version | 03:53 |
| jken146 | mattgyver: 64bit ubuntu is fine | 03:54 |
| DaemonFC | there's 32-bit libraries that can be used for 32-bit compatibility | 03:54 |
| daya | Random832, any idea about it | 03:54 |
| DaemonFC | they're all brought in as dependences if you isntall Wine :) | 03:54 |
| mattgyver | Okay, well then maybe ill dive into it, im about to reconfigure my system anyway in the next week or so cuz i got a new SSD to play with | 03:54 |
| mkquist | jken146: i agree been using it for quite some time no problems | 03:54 |
| nomnex | jken146, one more think, does the remote deskotp viewer (GUI) in Application allow SSH connection or only through the command line? | 03:55 |
| nomnex | jken146, sorry bad english... | 03:55 |
| Random832 | sorry | 03:55 |
| jken146 | daya: Passwords are encrypted and stored in /etc/shadow in such a way that you can generate the ecrypted string from the password (to authenticate) but not do the reverse | 03:55 |
| Random832 | jken146; which would mean he has to run his php script as root | 03:55 |
| JULinuxUser | If possible a question from a new julinux user, the program says its installed but on restart at the 2nd screen is says error no such partition <grub rescue> | 03:55 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, The only reason to stay with 32-bit x86 version of Ubuntu is if your CPU does not support X86-64 | 03:55 |
| jennie | Hey,hey,hey | 03:55 |
| jken146 | Random832: He would have to be root to use chpasswd | 03:56 |
| mattgyver | DaemonFC, then im a dummy cuz mine i deffinately a 64 bit :X | 03:56 |
| jennie | >0< | 03:56 |
| jken146 | Random832: but I thought daya was writing a bash script anyway | 03:56 |
| live_wire | is there a way to reset my resolution at grub? | 03:56 |
| Random832 | jken146; my suggestion was passwd, not chpasswd | 03:56 |
| gmendoza | Out of curiosity, has anyone heard of a quick fix for Flash video flickering? Lots of conflicting ideas in searches so far. I've noticed it with Intel and ATI chipsets, both in Firefox and Chrome, with compiz enabled and disabled. | 03:56 |
| jazz | Jordan_U, are you still about? | 03:57 |
| ChogyDan | gmendoza: jaunty? | 03:57 |
| nomnex | mattgyver, not for me, the reason are the codecs on Medibuntu, 32 packages offer much more than 64 | 03:57 |
| daya | Random832, jken146 I am only trying to write a CGI using bash to let my FTP users to change their password | 03:57 |
| gmendoza | karmic... | 03:57 |
| jken146 | Random832: passwd doesn't work; it's interactive | 03:57 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, If you asked me in 2005/2006, I would have been insistent on staying with 32-bit x86 because the 32-bit compatibility libraries weren't really all there yet, but there's no good reason to not use X86-64 now | 03:57 |
| ChogyDan | gmendoza: er, yeah, the latest stable | 03:57 |
| Random832 | jken146; you can redirect its stdin | 03:57 |
| mattgyver | DaemonFC, well ill deffinately give it a shot and see if it works out better for me, if it doesnt ill just roll back to 32bit | 03:58 |
| gmendoza | ChogyDan: yeah, running Adobe Flash 10.0 r42 | 03:58 |
| DaemonFC | people liked to FUD X86-64 for a long time because of those early compatibility issues | 03:58 |
| ChogyDan | gmendoza: would you mind telling me some of the conflicting solutions? I'm curious. I'd be happy to give you my solutions | 03:58 |
| mattgyver | DaemonFC, that might be what i got traped in | 03:58 |
| jken146 | nomnex: Um, I'm not sure about that app, I've not used it. I *think* it's a VNC viewer, which is a bit more than just X forwarding on ssh (but then I get out of my depth on how that works) | 03:58 |
| DaemonFC | mattgyver, Just bring in Wine and you'll have all the 32-bit compatibility environment you need because Wine depends on all of them | 03:58 |
| Random832 | just (echo $oldpass; echo $newpass; echo $newpass) | passwd | 03:58 |
| mattgyver | DaemonFC, shall do :) | 03:58 |
| DaemonFC | so does bringing in ubuntu-restricted-extras cause Flash wants them | 03:59 |
| mattgyver | Okay | 03:59 |
| shannon_ | hey how do i install gstreamer plugins for use with totem so i can watch dvd's | 03:59 |
| Random832 | (that was even easier than i thought it would be) | 03:59 |
| Random832 | now, you have to be running _as the user_ for that to work properly, just like for reading shadow you'd have to be root | 03:59 |
| DaemonFC | shannon_, Use the Medibuntu repository and install libdvdcss2 | 03:59 |
| DaemonFC | Ubuntu can't legally distribute that library | 04:00 |
| gmendoza | ChogyDan: some ranging from recompiling kernel, others suggest ati specific settings in xorg. Havent found much about the intel settings. | 04:00 |
| nomnex | jken146, I see, do you happen to have a good link (tutorial) to ssh a remote server? | 04:00 |
| DaemonFC | shannon_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 04:00 |
| jken146 | !ssh | nomex | 04:00 |
| ubottu | nomex: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 04:00 |
| Raydiation | hm whats the apache user in ubuntu? | 04:00 |
| shannon_ | thank you DaemonFC | 04:00 |
| Raydiation | apache or http? | 04:01 |
| ChogyDan | gmendoza: heh, well, Im the one that sent out a suggestion to run a different kernel. Ive also found that the issue is solved in lucid | 04:01 |
| nomnex | jken146, you made my day. | 04:01 |
| ChogyDan | gmendoza: I threw up my experience here: http://chogydan.blogspot.com/2010/01/flashy-flash-flashin-ubuntu-karmic.html | 04:01 |
| Random832 | also look into setting up PAM authentication on your php | 04:01 |
| gmendoza | ChogyDan: very good, I'll have a look. Much appreciated. | 04:02 |
| ChogyDan | gmendoza: hmm, I should update the warnings about the kernel, I've been running it for awhile now. | 04:03 |
| jken146 | nomnex: yw :) | 04:03 |
| shannon_ | what next DaemonFC | 04:04 |
| DaemonFC | shannon_, sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 | 04:04 |
| zinox | there is any tutorial to help me install this video card >> Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Radeon X300SE] on ubuntu lucid? | 04:05 |
| DaemonFC | shannon_, Totem also doesn't make the greatest DVD player, you may want to grab VLC while you're at it | 04:05 |
| kebomix | hello , i got kernel panic after installing linux header 2.6.31-19 because of ati driver , i removed official driver that was already installed but still have same problem !? | 04:07 |
| live_wire | just changed graphics resolution in startup-manager. now i cannot boot in ubuntu, not even recovery mode. i just receive a black screen.. any help please? | 04:08 |
| Drakon | Hi, totally new to Linux, got sick of windows XP/Vista etc... now i've sorta got everything running ok i wanted to install a login window theme, except i can't figure out how, even though i downloaded one from the site that the theme manager suggests... can anyone help?? | 04:09 |
| blakkheim | Drakon: you basically can't change the gdm theme in 9.10 | 04:10 |
| Berzerker | ardchoille, is there a way to force the grub menu up? | 04:10 |
| Drakon | oh fair enough... so it's for older versions??... or it's difficult? | 04:10 |
| Li_On_ | hello? Good evening everyone. This is acutally my first time in an IRC chat so I just picked this channel since I'm taking baby steps into the world of Ubuntu | 04:11 |
| blakkheim | Drakon: older | 04:11 |
| Drakon | thankyou | 04:11 |
| jken146 | Li_On_: hello. How can we help? | 04:11 |
| live_wire | Should I re-install ubuntu, or grub2? | 04:12 |
| hlx | where does one go if they want to get on the path to eventually writing code for ubuntu? (im fluent on C++, python and java in windows, learning portability concepts.), and would like to get started on the patch to contribution | 04:12 |
| docoxxx | hola | 04:12 |
| songer | hello, i can't find: flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound | 04:12 |
| docoxxx | nesito ayuda | 04:12 |
| hlx | on the path * | 04:13 |
| jken146 | hlx: find a project you like and see what needs doing. Look on launchpad and sourceforge | 04:13 |
| hlx | alright, is there some guided tour for launchpad? seems quite convoluted | 04:13 |
| Li_On_ | So, first thing's first...I wiped and old XP machine and made a clean install of Ubuntu...plugged in the ethernet cable...firefox launched immediately(wow!)...what do i need to know as windows user to better appreciate my transition...? security? alternative software?...any tips... | 04:13 |
| Drakon | i'm also looking to find out how to set up my xbox360 to Linux... can anyone point me in the right direction? | 04:14 |
| hlx | Drakon: eh? | 04:14 |
| DasEi | Li_On_: karmic ? | 04:14 |
| Alphex | can anyone point me to a bash scripting channel? | 04:14 |
| jken146 | songer: Li_On_: Security -- you don't need to do anything :) As for the rest, just start using it, and see how you go. You'll find software in the Software Center (in the Applications menu) | 04:15 |
| ChogyDan | hlx: I did the packaging upgrade guide, and that has got me started | 04:15 |
| shannon_ | got it! Thanks again, DaemonFC | 04:15 |
| ChogyDan | hlx: now I can open up a package, apply some source code edits, and pack it back up again | 04:15 |
| DaemonFC | yep | 04:15 |
| hlx | ChogyDan: Will look into that then, thanks | 04:15 |
| Li_On_ | i believe so...i can't say im too familiar with the distro names... | 04:15 |
| DasEi | !version | Li_On_ | 04:15 |
| ubottu | Li_On_: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 04:15 |
| Drakon | well i had it set up so i could watch movies from my computer through my xbox onto my big screen tv via ethernet connection... is there a way that anyone knows that i could do that? | 04:16 |
| hlx | like via Tversity? or windows media centre connector | 04:16 |
| hlx | I would think you could do it with SAMBA | 04:16 |
| DasEi | Li_On_ : for karmic : http://tiny.cc/kDdv0 | 04:16 |
| Drakon | umm it just sorta connected to be honest... and i could look through my computers video files | 04:16 |
| Drakon | it was on xp | 04:17 |
| jken146 | Drakon: It sounds like a job for Samba | 04:17 |
| jken146 | !samba | Drakon | 04:17 |
| ubottu | Drakon: 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. | 04:17 |
| Drakon | well... it's a place to start :) | 04:17 |
| tp43 | Alphex, did you try #bash? | 04:17 |
| Geoffrey2 | hey folks, I burned a CD in the CD/DVD creator, I got a message the burn was successful, and yet I still show a Blank CD on the Desktop, and clicking on it takes me back to the CD/DVD creator | 04:17 |
| songer | jken146, after some time in firefox on megavideo audio disappears | 04:17 |
| tp43 | songer, yeah, I noticed, and you have to restart. wierd | 04:18 |
| Alphex | ty for the chan | 04:18 |
| Li_On_ | yes, it is Karmic after all...(im learning here...) | 04:18 |
| jken146 | songer: Audio in linux can be a pain. Sometimes I find kicking the sound preferences options GUI thing helps (switching between the 'hardware' options) | 04:19 |
| songer | jken146, that's why i'm lookiong for flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound | 04:19 |
| Li_On_ | i find installing stuff is lot easier too with the Synaptic Manager | 04:19 |
| Li_On_ | you just take what you need and boom, done. | 04:19 |
| illyume | Hey, I'm looking for a program that will allow me to play mp3 files at reduced speeds (such as 1/2x or 1/4x) to help me learn some pieces by ear. Are there any packages in Ubuntu's repository that will do this, or will allow me to edit a .mp3 file to half speed? | 04:19 |
| DasEi | Li_On_: depends on, cmd-line is much faster, if you answer to someone, put their nick in what you say so there your message gets highlighted | 04:20 |
| illyume | I maybe should ask that in a different channel, but eh. | 04:20 |
| songer | but i've not find flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound | 04:20 |
| Li_On_ | DasEi : like this | 04:20 |
| DasEi | y, Li_On_ | 04:20 |
| Berzerker | anyone help? I'm stuck at memtest when booting, accidentally set it as default | 04:21 |
| ImALittleNuts | where is the normal or good location for a svn repo | 04:21 |
| jken146 | songer: It seems to be in multiverse | 04:21 |

| juan__ | i try to start with REVU, but too much different from Guides to my situation | 04:56 |
| live_wire | ok, when done editing (e) a line in grub2.. how do you save it? | 04:56 |
| jken146 | live_wire: In which file? | 04:57 |
| juan__ | i know how to package, but usually i package .ttf, wallpapers, .exe, and such | 04:57 |
| DasEi | metalf8801: wrong chan here ; de-install one , then see FAQ's on vb-homepage | 04:57 |
| jken146 | juan__: So what do you want to achieve? | 04:57 |
| arand | juan__: #ubuntu-motu is more specifically for packaging help (although not as busy). | 04:57 |
| juan__ | i come from #ubuntu-motu back to here :/ | 04:58 |
| pckt__ | hi | 04:58 |
| live_wire | jken146: the first option to boot in to ubuntu 9.10 | 04:58 |
| iflema | juan_ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete | 04:58 |
| metalf8801 | DasEi I only have the newer version of virtualbox installed and it was working before | 04:58 |
| DasEi | juan__: so you got a font.. whre is it located ? | 04:58 |
| juan__ | DasEi: my disk ATM | 04:59 |
| live_wire | i need to erase vga=795 only it doesn't save it | 04:59 |
| juan__ | DasEi: and i got in a .DEB | 04:59 |
| DasEi | juan__: so you got a package already then | 04:59 |
| juan__ | DasEi: but REVU only allows upload sources, how to upload sources from a .TTF files?, lol | 04:59 |
| jken146 | juan__: I really don't understand what your goal is. | 05:00 |
| juan__ | jken146, DasEi : you know REVU? | 05:00 |
| antonius | does the lucid daily build come with yahoo toolbar? | 05:00 |
| jken146 | !grub2 | live_wire | 05:00 |
| ubottu | live_wire: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 05:00 |
| DasEi | juan__: no, a packaging tool ? | 05:01 |
| live_wire | thanks | 05:01 |
| juan__ | !revu > DasEi | 05:01 |
| ubottu | DasEi, please see my private message | 05:01 |
| juan__ | sort of | 05:01 |
| juan__ | or process or whatever | 05:01 |
| jken146 | juan__: yeah ... it's a tool for reviewing package changes ... | 05:02 |
| datz | DasEi: config: http://pastebin.com/f607d712d error : http://pastebin.com/m7fe91371 | 05:02 |
| DasEi | juan__: I have no touch with that, I'd set up a ppa and ask people to check it | 05:02 |
| datz | could have put em in one paste I guess | 05:02 |
| Berzerker | anyone here use thunderbird 3.0 (shredder) on ubuntu? | 05:02 |
| DasEi | datz: remove the '# in line 21 interfaces, try again | 05:03 |
| datz | ok | 05:03 |
| juan__ | i got .TTF, and .DEB with .TTFs that install perfectly,i try to join REVU,REVU says sources only(.dsc, .diff.gz, .changes, and such),PPA dont work for me | 05:03 |
| jken146 | juan__: Why are you trying to join REVU? | 05:04 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: REVU is for reviewing source packages, nothing else. | 05:04 |
| jken146 | juan__: You have a package thet contains a font. What are you trying to do with it? | 05:04 |
| juan__ | jken146: to make my packaging work avaliable to everyone, to fix "need-packaging bugs" | 05:04 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: If you actually made a package, you have the source. | 05:05 |
| juan__ | tonyyarusso: how you get the build sources of .TTF files? | 05:05 |
| rumpsy | moin moin | 05:06 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: That hardly even makes sense at all. You said you *already* had a package, did you not? | 05:06 |
| juan__ | maybe a guide for non-buildable files is missing on the WIKI... | 05:06 |
| By_Your_Command | Cylons stole it | 05:06 |
| juan__ | i already have a package | 05:07 |
| datz | DasEi: Ignoring Unknown interface inet=inet <br> Ignoring unknow interface static=static | 05:07 |
| datz | now only lo comes up with ifconfig | 05:07 |
| DasEi | datz:see above..., second, pastie in progress | 05:07 |
| jken146 | juan__: So, do you want to have this package included in Ubuntu? | 05:07 |
| datz | ok | 05:07 |
| By_Your_Command | !toot | 05:07 |
| By_Your_Command | what the heck | 05:08 |
| juan__ | i got .deb with the .ttf files inside, install perfectly on ubuntu, but packaging guide ask for many things that you cant do with non-buildable files | 05:08 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: okay, how did you get the TTF file "inside" the .deb file? | 05:08 |
| juan__ | yes, i want to fix "need-packaging" bugs | 05:09 |
| juan__ | using a template and making the .deb | 05:09 |
| DasEi | datz: http://pastebin.com/m17b3f490 | 05:09 |
| bazhang | By_Your_Command, stay on topic and no more nonsense factoids | 05:10 |
| juan__ | fonts,it only ask for ubuntu-standad meta-package, and a post-install script that refresh font cache | 05:10 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: what template, and "making" how? | 05:10 |
| juan__ | template are directory and files edited manually | 05:12 |
| juan__ | since a .deb its just a compressed file | 05:12 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: um, that's not how building a deb works... | 05:12 |
| hlx | i think he wants to reverse engineer one, or extract it | 05:12 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: why don't you download the source package for an existing font set and analyze that? | 05:13 |

| Speedy2 | Hey all. Is there a program that lets you interactively configure Upstart & start-up services? | 05:13 |
| rumpsy | datz: Can i help you | 05:13 |
| DasEi | !bum | Speedy2 | 05:13 |
| ubottu | Speedy2: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 05:13 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: Does BUM actually works properly with Upstart? I know of it. | 05:13 |
| juan__ | tonyyarusso: i know, but i dont find any guide that explain me how to package with non-buildable non-on-repos files | 05:13 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: yes, least the services it offers | 05:14 |
| datz | DasEi: guess what, everything is working fine. Thanks alot | 05:14 |
| DasEi | datz: welcome | 05:14 |
| rumpsy | datz: Try this, i made a small change in that, i added a indent in that, http://pastie.org/817752 | 05:14 |
| datz | I just wonder why I can't edit my GUI network interface | 05:14 |
| datz | ok | 05:14 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: what do you mean "non-buildable"? They all work the same, just with different rules files. | 05:14 |
| juan__ | cant build a .TTF file | 05:14 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: you don't need to... | 05:15 |
| juan__ | REVU says build sources only | 05:15 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: That's correct. | 05:15 |
| juan__ | im confused | 05:15 |
| DasEi | datz: the gui thingy is network-manager, the pro solution is interfaces (oversides nw-mnger) | 05:16 |
| DasEi | overrides* | 05:16 |
| datz | true | 05:16 |
| datz | but not as easy to use. :P | 05:16 |
| Berzerker | anyone here use thunderbird 3.0 (shredder) on ubuntu? | 05:17 |
| hlx | you got your feet wet. when you do it a couple times it becomes easy | 05:17 |
| DasEi | datz: depends on your needs | 05:17 |
| zeltak | hya | 05:17 |
| Izinucs | Berzerker: yep | 05:17 |
| jken146 | juan__: Get hold of the source for an existing font package and look at where the TTF or OTF files go in there.. | 05:17 |
| zeltak | just got a 2tb drive but gparted only sees 1tb..anyone have any experience with this? | 05:17 |
| Speedy2 | zeltak: What does fdisk -l show for it? | 05:18 |
| juan__ | jken146: i already do that long time ago | 05:18 |

| datz | I wonder if I pasted the same thing twice or something | 05:19 |
| juan__ | .deb = AR compressed file with TAR inside with GZ inside, kinda triple compression | 05:19 |
| hlx | datz: you had an area that was something to the liking of 'auto inet static' that should have been 'auto eth0' | 05:19 |
| Izinucs | Berzerker: no.. haven't really tried.. even Evolution didn't do that for me.. Korganizer in kde does though.. | 05:19 |

| datz | DasEi: got ya. I see the diff from that above | 05:26 |
| juan__ | arand: downloading | 05:26 |
| tonyyarusso | juan__: um, you're reading the part of the guide that's for instroducing you to the concept, and you're suppose to follow along exactly, but trying to jump ahead to building your own package from scratch several steps later. | 05:27 |
| jken146 | juan__: That's an example, to teach you about the structure of Ubuntu packages. They want you to get a real official package and take it apart. It's a tutorial | 05:27 |

| infid | i just plugged my ipod touch into my computer but rhythmbox doesn't seem to be recognizing it. how can i get songs onto it in ubuntu? | 05:53 |
| mezquitale | DasEi, no, he wants to install imspector, the depending he's getting is that openssl/ssl.h doesnt exist | 05:54 |
| rumpsy | septim: try that, and my advice is don't go for anyother themes expect themes provided by ubuntu | 05:54 |
| rumpsy | septim: open terminal and goto home dir | 05:54 |
| paotzu | DreaDy_HK: you might need sudo aptitude install openssl or openssl-dev | 05:54 |
| DasEi | mezquitale: thanks | 05:54 |
| rickbee | DasEi: e2fsck - should I use -p (automatic reapair)? | 05:55 |
| DreaDy_HK | i need install a ssh client in my computer ? | 05:55 |
| mezquitale | infid, it's recognizing it, you just dont know how to use rhythmbox, use amarok and look at the forums on how to do that, there's plenty of information in the forum | 05:55 |
| DreaDy_HK | i have install openssl in my computer brother | 05:55 |
| septim | rumpsy: and look for .themes | 05:55 |
| DasEi | rickbee: yes.. second, open a trml in live cd... | 05:55 |

| rickysmart | Hey, anyone knows how i get to the irc channel of ubuntu in spanish? | 05:55 |

| DasEi | rickbee: mount <<make sure hd isn't mounted, get device-identifiers | 05:56 |
| mezquitale | DasEi, I meant to say DreaDy_HK has a failed dependency, it says openssl/ssl.h does not exist | 05:56 |
| septim | rumpsy: ok | 05:56 |
| rickysmart | great men, thanks! | 05:56 |
| rumpsy | septim: open terminal and goto home dir | 05:56 |
| septim | rumpsy: ok | 05:56 |
| DasEi | mezquitale: got it, but I don't know imspector | 05:56 |
| ja660k | where is the pear module directory in ubuntu?? | 05:56 |
| mezquitale | infid, that sucks big time, I was able to use my niece's ipod without problems in my ubuntu machine | 05:56 |
| rumpsy | septim: rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity | 05:57 |
| rumpsy | septim: ^^ command | 05:57 |
| DarthSteedious | Anyone know of a channel for beginner C programming | 05:57 |
| bazhang | infid, there is a PPA for ifuse | 05:57 |
| Izinucs | infid: you can thank apple for that.. :( | 05:57 |
| septim | rumpsy: done | 05:57 |
| infid | mezquitale: yeah normal ipods work, just not the touch | 05:57 |
| rumpsy | septim: restart your GMD to take effect | 05:57 |

| ed10 | Hi I need help.I have my p.c partitioned (xp & ubuntu)I now cant get my windows to boot up.I would like to get access to my programmes on windows and mount them in ubuntu.I can see the programmes sitting there when I look in the hard drive when running ubuntu,but how do I mount them in ubuntu?I need outlook express for example to get email files and contacts etc.Thanks in advance. | 06:16 |
| rickbee | DasEi: yes, was trying to connect to irc on the other computer to paste. Anyways, I got "recovering journal", "Clearing orphane inode..." and "cleann..." | 06:16 |
| rickbee | DasEi: Sounds reassuring | 06:16 |
| DasEi | rickbee: so it finished without errors ? | 06:17 |
| rickbee | DasEi: I think so. Was that it? | 06:17 |
| Jordan_U | jazz, What do you mean? | 06:17 |
| DasEi | rickbee: unless you want to re-write initramfs, can give it a try, else got to boot in live again | 06:18 |
| darolu | ed10: You can run them that way, Ubuntu is not Windows, some programs can be run with Wine (a windows emulator); you can try restoring Windows and then reinstalling GRUB to get both systems functional. | 06:18 |
| jazz | Jordan_U, you wrote up top same question to u, | 06:18 |
| Jordan_U | jazz, You asked two hours ago if I was still around | 06:18 |

| rumpsy | knuck: you should not do that | 06:31 |
| WAawaawEE | why? | 06:31 |
| DasEi | knuck: but be aware of /etc/sudoers in look of sudo | 06:31 |
| rumpsy | knuck: supplying a root password, is like a big hole in your computer for rats | 06:32 |
| rww | DasEi: The supported way to edit sudo configuration is "visudo", not editing /etc/sudoers directly. | 06:32 |
| knuck | there isn't any way to just change it in some system settings or something? | 06:32 |
| septim_ | rumpsy: im going off, thanks anyway man again | 06:32 |
| darolu | knuck: is safer to use sudo, if you need to be root I'd recomend to do $sudo su | 06:33 |
| rumpsy | septim_: ) , welcome | 06:33 |
| DasEi | rww: yess.. :) | 06:33 |
| knuck | ty | 06:33 |
| rww | !root | knuck | 06:33 |
| ubottu | knuck: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 06:33 |
| knuck | nah, i know my password | 06:33 |
| knuck | i just want to change it | 06:33 |
| rumpsy | AT first root is not a user | 06:34 |
| blocky | anyone know of a multitrack mixing program? | 06:34 |
| rww | rumpsy: yes it is, actually. It's just disabled by default on Ubuntu. | 06:34 |
| ardchoille | knuck: Changing or enabling the root accountis not supported and makes your system much less secure | 06:34 |
| knuck | well damn. oh well. is there any way to pw lock specific folders? | 06:34 |
| ardchoille | you can't brute force a locked root account and you can't brute force a user account without the username and password | 06:34 |
| rumpsy | rww: That is for safety, and security purpose | 06:34 |
| aiwa | hey i got a program that won't quit. how do i force a program to quit? | 06:34 |
| royceremer | you just drop to root shell in recovery mode and $pwchange | 06:35 |
| DaZ | aiwa: killall -9 name | 06:35 |
| DasEi | aiwa: sudo killall -9 firefox ,f.e. | 06:35 |
| Maxima | close is by force | 06:35 |
| tonyyarusso | knuck: That's what standard file permissions are for. | 06:35 |
| darolu | knuck: root is like god on your pc, you can use it, but just as you can create it you can destroy it, be aware of that; you can do better than pwd protect folders, assign them permissions try $man chmod | 06:35 |
| jazz | what is a real good program to record desktop activities? | 06:35 |
| rumpsy | aiwa: check that processes name in system monitor | 06:35 |
| DaZ | aiwa: or use xkill, kde has it under ctrl+alt+esc shortcut | 06:35 |
| rww | ubottu: screencast | jazz | 06:35 |
| ubottu | jazz: Some programs to capture your screen are recordmydesktop, Istanbul, Wink, Xvidcap, pyvnc2swf. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. | 06:35 |
| ardchoille | "man who play in root eventually kill tree" | 06:35 |

| git__ | why does ubuntu insist on using runlevel 2 for GUI? | 06:37 |
| knuck | ok, i own this computer. i set up a basic root pw and i'm worried anybody could guess it if they knew me. it was a quick fix after a reformat, and i want to make it something a little more complicated | 06:37 |
| DaZ | i'm just saying gnome should have shortcut as well | 06:37 |
| tonyyarusso | git__: That's inherited from the Debian upstream, as has been standard there for eons. | 06:37 |
| Maxima | how can i load SSA subtitle for mplayer?? | 06:37 |
| darolu | knuck: $sudo passwd root | 06:37 |
| DasEi | git__: what's the matter with it ? | 06:38 |
| rumpsy | knuck: instead applying passward to root, apply it for grub.. that may safe | 06:38 |
| tonyyarusso | darolu: Don't tell people how to do that - if they were informed enough to understand the risks, they'd know how to do it already. | 06:38 |
| Maxima | it gives me "seek failed" | 06:38 |
| ardchoille | knuck: The point is, with a locked root account you cannot guess the password, the account is locked and for good reason | 06:38 |
| DasEi | knuck: or use encryption like pgp or truecrypt for that | 06:39 |
| Drakonslayor | !mp3 | 06:39 |
| git__ | the main problem starting GUI at runlevel 2 is because of video driver | 06:39 |

| knuck | but i know the pw. but i'll encrypt the folder after changing my root with sudo | 06:39 |
| ardchoille | knuck: I've beenusing Ubuntu for 4 years and have never needed to enable the root account, it's just not necessary | 06:39 |

| viejotren | hi folks, i got 2 questions, #1 what is the best filesystem to encrypt partition? | 06:40 |
| almark1 | could someone pls look at my paste because I can't use apt-cdrom add | 06:40 |
| almark1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/372994/ | 06:40 |
| mneptok | Ronald: is that a script you are running? if so, please disable it when in Ubuntu channels. thanks. | 06:40 |
| darolu | viejotren: I personally prefer xfs | 06:40 |
| viejotren | why? darolu | 06:41 |
| darolu | viejotren: because it is 64-bit | 06:41 |
| mneptok | darolu: XFS is not suitable for a /boot addressed by GRUB | 06:41 |
| DasEi | viejotren: best is always a call in the wilde , ext4 supports cryption well | 06:41 |
| rumpsy | almark1: okay | 06:41 |
| SwedeMike | Vlet: personally I do md->luks(cryptsetup)->lvm->xfs for main partitions. | 06:41 |
| DaZ | lolwut | 06:41 |
| mneptok | darolu: so are ext filesystems | 06:41 |
| rumpsy | almark1: try this command, apt-cdrom add | 06:41 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: thanks :) | 06:41 |
| viejotren | is xfs enough stable? | 06:42 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: it doesn't work still | 06:42 |
| SwedeMike | viejotren: yes, it's been around since 2000 | 06:42 |
| DaZ | it is. | 06:42 |
| mneptok | viejotren: do not use XFS for /boot | 06:42 |
| DaZ | mneptok: because? :f | 06:42 |
| rumpsy | almark1: first eject the cd out | 06:42 |
| SwedeMike | you can't encrypt /boot anyway, just run ext3 on it and be fine. | 06:42 |
| darolu | mneptok: why ext or xfs are not suitable? | 06:42 |
| viejotren | what should i use mneptok? | 06:42 |
| mneptok | DaZ: because GRUB has long-standing issues properly addressing XFS partitions | 06:42 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: ok its done | 06:42 |
| DaZ | it works fine iirc. | 06:43 |
| rumpsy | almark1: And insert it again, use that command, sudo apt-cdrom add | 06:43 |
| e3a15 | hi | 06:43 |

| ubottu | 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! | 06:43 |
| viejotren | so, is a good practice to encrpyt just /home? | 06:43 |
| DaZ | DasEi: so? | 06:43 |
| SwedeMike | viejotren: depends what you can to protect against. | 06:43 |
| viejotren | just my personal data | 06:43 |
| viejotren | just that | 06:43 |
| e3a15 | HI i want to configure Asterisk Server on Ubuntu 9.10 | 06:43 |
| WAawaawEE | how do i add my bottom tool bar back - if i goto add to panel i don't see it | 06:43 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: ok I'm about to use it again and the DVD is on top of the two, I have two drives DVD and CD and its mounted auto just a moment | 06:44 |
| WAawaawEE | i see one called window list... but i can only add that to the top toolbar | 06:44 |
| SwedeMike | viejotren: then I'd just encrypt /home if I were you, that's what I'm doing on my laptop. | 06:44 |
| mneptok | DaZ: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=415623 | 06:44 |
| viejotren | ok swedemike, what kind of filesystem should i use? | 06:44 |
| Jordan_U | mneptok, Source on the xfs problems? Do they effect grub2? | 06:44 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: the same happened didn't work http://paste.ubuntu.com/372995/ | 06:44 |
| SwedeMike | viejotren: I use xfs on my laptop for /home. Only major drawback with xfs that I know is that it can't be shrunk, only enlarged. | 06:45 |
| e3a15 | HI | 06:45 |
| e3a15 | anyone there | 06:45 |
| darolu | viejotren: xfs was introduced in 1994 I'd say it is quite stable. | 06:45 |
| mneptok | Jordan_U: GRUB2 advertises better XFS support, but i still wouldn't trust /boot to XFS. just as i would not trust /boot to any encrypted filesystem. | 06:45 |
| e3a15 | please tell me i want to configure asterisk server on ubuntu 9.10 | 06:45 |
| SwedeMike | e3a15: listen, read the guidelines that was linked to you, then do what it says, and you'll increase your chances of getting an answer. | 06:45 |
| DaZ | mneptok: thanks | 06:45 |
| Carutsu | hello, I need to install libstdc++6-4.1, it doesn't seem to be in the mirrors, all I get is the -dev package | 06:46 |
| DaZ | tho i didn't ever encounter this problem. | 06:46 |
| Carutsu | is there a place where I can get it? | 06:46 |
| rumpsy | almark1: or mount the cdrom manually, to a particular location, and try apt-cdrom -d | 06:46 |
| e3a15 | Swedemike can u send me links again | 06:46 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: yes I have done that as well I will do that now | 06:46 |
| SwedeMike | e3a15: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . You need to learn how to state a question specifically, saying "I need help to configure asterisk" doesn't say anything. | 06:46 |
| viejotren | ok, thanks a lot guys, ques #2: is about ubuntustudio -sorry the official channel never respond- | 06:47 |
| SwedeMike | e3a15: you need to state your problem and ask a specific question. | 06:47 |
| viejotren | how can I ignore the dvd check as installation media? | 06:47 |
| e3a15 | Swedemike my prob is that i want to configure Asterisk server on ubuntu 9.10 How to do so | 06:47 |
| WAawaawEE | im going to go nuts :P | 06:48 |
| rumpsy | almark1: if even that's not work, goto to synaptic package manager, and goto repos, press add cdrom button to add cdrom to repo | 06:48 |
| WAawaawEE | need my damn bottom toolbar back!!!!!! aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh | 06:48 |
| semanticpc | how do i print 5_1_5 ..... echo "$i_$j_$k" in bash ??? | 06:48 |
| SwedeMike | e3a15: that question is way to broad, it's like saying "I need to drive a car on the road, what should I do". | 06:48 |
| DaZ | WAawaawEE: lolwut? | 06:48 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: that doesn't work as well lol I have tried everything | 06:48 |
| WAawaawEE | i cant see my list of programs open at the bottom | 06:48 |
| WAawaawEE | i accidently removed the entire bar | 06:48 |
| trev | I'm having problems with changes to text files in eclipse not showing up in any other editors, any ideas what might cause this? | 06:48 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: I will try that too | 06:48 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: mounting the dvd didn't work either | 06:48 |
| Jordan_U | semanticpc, Please clarify | 06:48 |
| darolu | waaawaawee: right click your top panel and add a new one | 06:48 |
| WAawaawEE | i did that | 06:48 |
| WAawaawEE | im in "Add to panel" | 06:49 |
| WAawaawEE | now what? | 06:49 |
| WAawaawEE | i see a million different options | 06:49 |
| McNuggets | WAawaawEE: task manager | 06:49 |
| hyperstream | WAawaawEE, read...... | 06:49 |
| darolu | waaawaawee: add the task manager | 06:49 |
| rumpsy | almark1: disconnect cdrom and try with dvd | 06:49 |
| e3a15 | Swedemike i configured it but how to give password to SQL | 06:49 |
| WAawaawEE | theres no task manager on the list | 06:49 |
| WAawaawEE | :) | 06:49 |
| hyperstream | WAawaawEE, did you set it to auto hide or something? | 06:49 |
| WAawaawEE | nah i hit remove | 06:50 |
| Jordan_U | !panel | WAawaawEE | 06:50 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: ok I just used synaptic and added the cdrom but that didn't work E: Failed to mount the cdrom. | 06:50 |
| SwedeMike | e3a15: well then, that's a much better question, but I have no idea what the answer is, but now someone might help you. You probably will get better help in an asterisk-specific forum. | 06:50 |
| WAawaawEE | its the panel that has the list of active programs | 06:50 |
| rumpsy | almark1: disconnect cdrom and try with dvdrom | 06:50 |
| WAawaawEE | i understand how to add to an existing panel | 06:50 |
| darolu | WAawaawEE: Use the search box type task in, it should reduce your options | 06:50 |
| collabra | yeah,... he need to add the whole panel | 06:50 |
| Optimus55 | hey any cairo-dock users know how to get drop shadows on icons? | 06:50 |
| WAawaawEE | exactly | 06:50 |

| almark1 | rumpsy: do you mean I should umount the cdrom | 06:50 |
| WAawaawEE | i know how to add to an existing panel | 06:50 |
| WAawaawEE | i added brightness and all sorts of fun stuff | 06:50 |
| WAawaawEE | :P | 06:50 |
| WAawaawEE | but the entire bottom panel is gone... | 06:51 |
| darolu | WAawaawEE: right click the bottom pannel and click on "add TO panel" | 06:51 |
| WAawaawEE | there is no bottom panel | 06:51 |
| WAawaawEE | =] | 06:51 |
| WAawaawEE | its gone | 06:51 |
| hyperstream | LOL | 06:51 |
| DasEi | semanticpc: cut the underscores. have ""for spaces | 06:51 |
| Jordan_U | !resetpanel | WAawaawEE | 06:51 |
| ubottu | WAawaawEE: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 06:51 |
| WAawaawEE | THANK YOU | 06:51 |
| WAawaawEE | a solid answer at last | 06:51 |
| WAawaawEE | hah | 06:51 |

| darolu | WAawaawEE: right click the top one and click on New panel | 06:51 |
| rumpsy | almark1: i mean don't use cdrom, disable from your computer, also remove power supply to cdrom, use dvdrom and try those | 06:51 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: lol ok I'll be back soon | 06:52 |
| semanticpc | DasEi: i need the underscore in the output | 06:52 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: wait a sec couldn't I just use bios and disable? | 06:52 |

| DEbiansqueeze | are you serious? | 06:57 |
| DEbiansqueeze | crap | 06:58 |
| Jordan_U | DEbiansqueeze, There are many other install options | 06:58 |
| greezmunkey | Is there a good source of info regarding compatible hardware for linux/Ubuntu systems? Like a system build guide, or something? I don't feel like "experimenting"! TIA | 06:58 |
| jken146 | !wubi | DEbiansqueeze | 06:58 |

| linuxuz3r | how do you change gdm theme in ubuntu? | 06:59 |
| tonyyarusso | linuxuz3r: in 9.10, you can't. | 06:59 |
| greezmunkey | Jordan_U, Thanks, I've bookmarked them both :) | 06:59 |
| linuxuz3r | tonyyarusso, why cant you? | 07:00 |
| tonyyarusso | Jordan_U: there's a third one - zareason | 07:00 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: are you still here I unplugged the cdrom and its IDE cable and then I ran apt-cdrom add but still nothing | 07:00 |
| rumpsy | almark1: lol | 07:00 |
| tonyyarusso | linuxuz3r: b/c GDM was completely rewritten, and hasn't had that functionality added to the new version yet. | 07:00 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: uh huh :P | 07:00 |
| rumpsy | almark1: what command you used | 07:00 |
| jken146 | linuxuz3r: You can go back to the old version | 07:00 |
| tonyyarusso | e3a15: That will all depend on the configuration of the particular ftp server you chose - reading its documentation should start you out. | 07:01 |
| Jordan_U | tonyyarusso, Thanks | 07:01 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: at first I used apt-cdrom -d /media/cdrom0 which is the only one I have lol and It didn't work | 07:01 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: and then I tried apt-cdrom add and still nothing | 07:02 |

| Lanlost | Hey, how do I make a shortcut to a PROGRAM in a folder. Every time I drag from the .. quick launch (equivalent) menu part of the Gnome bar it just makes a .desktop file. I know this will work on my Desktop but I want a shortcuts folder since my desktop is getting too crowded. | 07:04 |
| Lanlost | I dont just make a symbolic link do I? | 07:04 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: all this came about because I wanted to apt-get install build-essential but alas that didn't work with apt-update not really lol | 07:04 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: coming right up | 07:04 |
| eviln_one | any succesfull powerpc netboot install reference? please | 07:04 |
| * almark1 scratches his head first | 07:04 | |
| jazz | also this may not be an Ubuntu thing but i watched a video the guy turn the webpage around and wrote on the back (sticky note like) | 07:04 |

| Lanlost | ln -s /usr/bin/gnome-system-monitor ./Gnome-System-Monitor | 07:05 |
| rumpsy | almark1: try to do this change, change the device from /cdrom to /cdrom/, under fstab | 07:05 |
| jken146 | Lanlost: a symbolic link would work, e.g. ln -s /usr/bin/firefox /some/folder/firefox | 07:05 |
| Lanlost | I've been linux for almost 2 years now | 07:05 |
| Lanlost | I don't know wtf just happened to my mind | 07:06 |
| Lanlost | I've made a million (seems like it) symbolic and hard links | 07:06 |
| iflema | jazz the settings will show under the desktop menu System / Preferences / compizconfig settings manager | 07:06 |
| Lanlost | seriously just a case of my mind failing me for some reason | 07:06 |
| rumpsy | almark1: at last use this, mount -a | 07:06 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: from /cdrom/ to /cdrom/? lol | 07:06 |
| rumpsy | almark1: yes | 07:06 |
| jazz | iflema, i did, i needed help with the switcher but got a link, my 2nd question was on the video i seen about linux in general | 07:06 |
| Lanlost | I think it was because I saw the .desktop file that was auto created. It made me unlearn everything I had learned for a few minutes and made me think that I couldn't do a link anywhere to a program except on my desktop heh | 07:06 |
| almark1 | rumpsy: let me get you paste first :) | 07:06 |
| McNuggets | jazz: I think what you are looking for is "inside cube" in compiz | 07:06 |
| Lanlost | which was very obviously not true | 07:06 |
| Lanlost | just did a locate gnome-system-monitor and then the ln -s to the path | 07:07 |
| Lanlost | I'm suprised how many people don't know about locate | 07:07 |
| rumpsy | almark1: That's the only thing i want to do, :) | 07:07 |
| Lanlost | although its not always useful due to the database | 07:07 |

| seamarshall | i have tried iptables but honestly i am a novice in ubuntu :/ | 07:31 |
| Lanlost | thats not quite a flood though | 07:31 |
| Jordan_U | Lanlost, If you want "C:\\/" to by a symlink then there can't be a directory of the same name already there | 07:31 |
| Lanlost | I dont mean sorry, that's not quite a flood. I really mean it when I say sorry. | 07:31 |
| darolu | seamrshall: you can edit your /etc/hosts file | 07:31 |
| Lanlost | Jordan, there's not.. the symlink completes fine | 07:32 |
| Lanlost | I'm trying to symlink to the inside of the dos directory so that ls /media/C\:\\ gives me the same result as ls /media/56..../dos | 07:32 |

| nomnex | openoffice channel is not very responsive. Do I need Java JRE if I want to use Base? Is there an open JRE and would you recommend it vs. the Java JRE (karmic here). Thanks | 07:34 |
| seamarshall | DasEi: I have already tried adding the ips to be dropped by iptables but it didnt lag them at all | 07:34 |
| Lanlost | yeah sorry, it worked with ln -s /media/56..../dos/. with the period | 07:35 |
| lorenzosu | wtfwtfdef, That is a little vague | 07:35 |
| Lanlost | and then you're right, it wouldn't work with an already existing dir. If I did it the other way the dir HAD to be there first | 07:35 |
| nervousTwitch | wtfwtfdef have you launched firefox through xterm???? | 07:35 |
| DasEi | seamarshall: ufw lets you do that | 07:35 |

| DreaDy_HK | seamarshall i need other software for run imspector ? | 07:50 |
| MindVirus | DasEi: What do you mean? | 07:51 |
| seamarshall | DreaDy_HK: I am sorry, I don't know much about linux right now. I dont know what inspector is | 07:51 |
| DasEi | seamarshall: for ubuntu I assume ? ufw as linkde above | 07:51 |
| DreaDy_HK | other software for see the log of imspector ? | 07:51 |

| seamarshall | jken146: Will that block them with my router-device bridge or just my computer? | 07:54 |

| jken146 | seamarshall: just your computer | 07:54 |
| seamarshall | DasEi: yes I enabled it before I added the block | 07:54 |
| jazz | iflema, no luck on tha video guess its ok. was a cool idea though. | 07:54 |
| iflema | seamarshall the command should be iptables -I INPUT -s <ip address> -j DROP use H instead of I to allow again | 07:54 |

| Sausage | then a blinking caps lock | 07:55 |
| jken146 | seamarshall: oh, I see. Then you do want to do something fancy with iptables | 07:55 |

| burkey | Is there a command to see who is logged onto windows terminal server in the ubuntu terminal | 07:56 |
| seamarshall | ifelma: I also tried that command but I am not trying to block connections to my computer. I have a peripheral connected to my router and i want to filter that traffic | 07:56 |
| haryv | I imagine some of you are in Europe its midnight here west coast time. | 07:56 |
| DasEi | haryv: depends on their servers/locations, pinc n traceroute them, ten you'll know | 07:56 |

| sysdoc | The buntu is sucking buttermilk! | 08:06 |
| jazz | iflema, what i was talking about is at 2:59 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXv8VlpoK_g&feature=related | 08:06 |
| Speedy2 | Hey all. If you compile your own kernel, if you re-install the nvidia drivers with apt, does it still generate the right files? | 08:06 |
| iflema | jazz oooo | 08:07 |
| jazz | iflema, i guess the project got canned | 08:07 |
| seamarshall | DasEi: I am using ubuntu | 08:07 |
| McNuggets | jazz: what project? | 08:07 |
| jazz | he turns the page over and writes looking glass, is the project | 08:07 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: y | 08:07 |
| jazz | McNuggets, looking glass | 08:07 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: If you recompile the kernel yourself, will apt detet that an re-generate the nvidia stuff? | 08:08 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: but if you do your own, needed modules have to be there | 08:08 |
| iflema | jazz oooh..... pez | 08:08 |
| McNuggets | jazz: i'm, using it right now in compiz. it's in your settings manager | 08:08 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: yes, will | 08:08 |
| jazz | McNuggets, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXv8VlpoK_g&feature=related | 08:08 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: The problem is I'm getting some kernel oops and my keyboard / mouse input is "choppy" | 08:08 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: how did you do it ? | 08:09 |
| DasEi | Speedy2:(the compilation) | 08:09 |
| turneralex | I cant get apache2 started with ssl in ubuntu. I'm getting an "address in use" error when i have "listen 443" in ports.conf though the server starts fine on port 80.. | 08:09 |
| turneralex | any ideas? | 08:09 |
| jazz | McNuggets, really? what i was looking for was the part around 2:59 | 08:09 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: I didn't recompile the kernel yet, I'm using the Kubuntu one, but this is why I want to re-compile. | 08:09 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: (the .. | 08:09 |
| McNuggets | jazz: thats a old plugin from Beryl that was now integrated with compiz | 08:09 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: any particular reason ? | 08:10 |
| jazz | McNuggets, how do i set it up? or what plugins? | 08:10 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: I probably haven't been very clear. I am using a Kubuntu stock kernel, but I am getting oopses . I think it's because the kernel wants to use the older "pata_xxx" drives (ITE & Marvell in my case). But I have no recourse since they are not loaded as modules. | 08:11 |
| jazz | McNuggets, that was one of the first videos i seen before i switch to linux | 08:11 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: The kernel should be setup to use the newer "sata_xxx" modules for the same devices. | 08:11 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: ic, I haven't followed latest kernel news, else just got to make sure the desired are on your sys, blacklist the wrong ones and load them at bootup | 08:12 |
| McNuggets | jazz: :) I would suggest you go with the simple compiz settings manager like I did at first till you find your way around. other than that there is some reading to do and messing around | 08:12 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: It's not loading a module for these devices, but they are in fact compiled into the kernel. | 08:13 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: what does syslog say about the drives ? | 08:13 |
| jazz | McNuggets, i do use compiz but not all like the show off videos on youtube. it was fun 3 months ago though when i got ubuntu | 08:14 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: no, but have some experience, please stay here, so I can follow other posts | 08:15 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: I've been using Linux a long time, and have compiled dozens of kernels. Normally I do it anyway since I know my hardware best. | 08:15 |
| jameschu | Speedy2, u are a high hand | 08:16 |
| jameschu | how to compile kernel? | 08:17 |
| woodyjlw | is there going to be a new ATI driver for ubuntu that is wrote by a linux user? not from ati | 08:17 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: so you know the answer then | 08:17 |
| DasEi | !kernel | jameschu | 08:17 |
| ubottu | jameschu: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 08:17 |
| Speedy2 | jameschu: I've only done it once on Ubuntu, following the guides DasEi just linked you to | 08:18 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: I have done it before, but I never had any proprietary drivers to worry about. | 08:18 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: Plus, Kubuntu by default starts up KDM, and doesn't log you into a console. I noticed if my X isn't starting up, I don't get virtual logins, so I'm just worried if something gets screwed up, I'm "locked out" | 08:19 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: you will need support for your pcie-bus, rest apt should resolve, x is another question | 08:19 |
| al_ | yo | 08:20 |
| al_ | sup all | 08:20 |
| Jordan_U | Speedy2, You can always choose an old kernel or recovery mode from the grub menu | 08:20 |
| === mdo_mdo30 is now known as enie | ||
| al_ | why does 'ls -d' not list dirs? it doesnt list anyting for me? | 08:20 |
| Speedy2 | Jordan_U: Yeah, recover mode still isn't giving me a console login (oddly) | 08:20 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: it does, root or netroot | 08:21 |
| knuth | #bookz | 08:21 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: It might be because I changed some of the start-up services, dunno. | 08:21 |
| darolu | al_:$man ls | 08:21 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: also ctrl-alt F1 to F6 drops you to login prompt | 08:22 |
| al_ | darolu: I did, and my interpretation of the -d flag is to list dirs??? | 08:22 |
| seamarshall | Does anyone know how to use iptables with a ettercap bridged connection (not my computer) | 08:22 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: Yeah, what I'm saying is that doesn't work right now. I don't see any getty running in the process list either. | 08:22 |
| al_ | I want to list all dirs on a disk, by reverse date order, and I cant even get to the first bllody step, list dirs....grrrr | 08:23 |
| DasEi | al_: ls -R for the whole | 08:23 |
| al_ | DasEi: yeah I got that much. but need dirs only, with newest at bottom of list | 08:24 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: what happens if you boot ? | 08:24 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: Boots normally, dumps me into KDE (Kubuntu). If I choose recovery mode, it just hangs after starting up one of the services. control-alt-delete reboots it. (this is stock kernel, I haven't changed anything there). | 08:24 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: strange, then init 1 or the rec-kernel is broken, you can hit ctrl-alt F1 from kubu to get out x | 08:26 |
| DasEi | al_: man ls, option t sorts by date | 08:26 |
| al_ | DasEi: ok. But I still cant list dirs with ls -d? what am i missing? does the -d option do something differnet? | 08:27 |

Can somebody help me to find out how to install this card on ubuntu. When I google I only find websites of companies selling this card. I do know that a Linux 'driver' exists according to the specs of sitecom, but I also can't find where to download this. | 08:35 |
| christopheb | bazhang, what do you mean with pae? | 08:36 |
| DasEi | Speedy2: why that ?? | 08:36 |
| bazhang | christopheb, sorry misread; you are compiling your own kernel then | 08:36 |
| === Nighthawk82 is now known as nighthawk82_away | ||
| christopheb | I installed the phc from ppa repo's | 08:36 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: Well, like I said, I changed some of the start-up scripts to remove unnessary things (i.e. "modem-manager"). It's possible something got fubared, so I wanted to find out the easiest way to return all the start-up scripts to default | 08:36 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: Would that be just copying them over from the LiveCD? | 08:37 |
| jacob__ | please #ubuntu | 08:37 |
| jacob__ | It's late | 08:37 |
| jacob__ | When It's late, things here always seem to turn for worst | 08:37 |
| darolu | jacob_:you can edit the theme you are using or choose another window theme, click the customize button at the themes window | 08:37 |
| jacob__ | I did | 08:37 |
| jacob__ | What PART of the Customizing theme.. I looked, I don't see it | 08:37 |
| jacob__ | If that isn't it what PART of my theme file.. | 08:37 |
| jacob__ | I don't know these things man | 08:37 |
| collabra | jacob__ : calm down | 08:38 |

| === joseph is now known as Guest6765 | ||
| jacob__ | but i don't want human | 08:38 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: If there is a weakpoint of Ubuntu right now, it's Upstart. | 08:39 |
| darolu | Jacob_:it's hard for us to help if you don't even give the name of the theme... | 08:39 |
| jacob__ | well | 08:39 |
| jacob__ | I'm using the Mist control | 08:39 |
| jacob__ | Human icon set | 08:39 |
| Chiznight | Jacob_: What exactly are you looking for? Just the menu bar? | 08:39 |
| jacob__ | and ClearlooksClassic window border | 08:39 |
| bullgard | HOw can I find a straing having blanks in a manpage? | 08:39 |
| jacob__ | And I want to edit the menu bar yes, which I believe would be Mist | 08:39 |
| bullgard | HOw can I find a string having blanks in a manpage? | 08:39 |
| jacob__ | or no | 08:39 |
| jacob__ | clearlooks classic would control that | 08:40 |
| DasEi | speedy: unless you give more information either on your changes or your issues, upstart is event-based so less config-"attackable" | 08:40 |
| fez | i can't wait till 10.04 | 08:40 |
| collabra | jacob__ : everything you've mentioned are themes | 08:40 |
| jacob__ | different parts of themes | 08:40 |
| collabra | right,... but, what can we help you with jacob__ | 08:41 |
| Speedy2 | DasEi: Well, the Kubuntu I used shipped with a bunch of unwanted and uneeded services, but it's hard to weed them out and remove them based on the design of Upstart. | 08:41 |
| collabra | jacob__ : what you originally mentioned was an icon | 08:41 |

| christopheb | Guys, make isn't working anymore, what can cause this? | 09:07 |
| Gryphon4 | thanks darolu: will cheak it out. | 09:07 |
| rumpsy | christopheb: what was the error? | 09:07 |
| christopheb | nothing, it just keeps waiting, I enter the command and nothing happens | 09:07 |
| christopheb | I was re-symlinking my linux-sources | 09:08 |
| rumpsy | christopheb: after ./configure, use this, make && make install | 09:08 |
| christopheb | I know | 09:08 |
| christopheb | but it ju | 09:08 |
| christopheb | just doesn't work anymore | 09:08 |
| rumpsy | christopheb: make install? | 09:08 |
| christopheb | everything with make doesn't do anything anymore | 09:09 |
| Gryphon4 | darolu: its telling me this???? sudo: apt-get-d: command not found | 09:09 |

| christopheb | phc | 09:09 |
| Gryphon4 | What do i do? | 09:09 |
| christopheb | it worked before | 09:09 |
| collabra | christopheb: have you tried purging and reinstalling : make? | 09:09 |
| darolu | Gryphon4: you have to specify a package name | 09:10 |
| christopheb | but gave me an error, "make[1]: *** No rule to make target `kernel/bounds.c', needed by `kernel/bounds.s'. Stop." | 09:10 |
| Gryphon4 | I did | 09:10 |
| christopheb | that's why I re symlinked it | 09:10 |
| christopheb | why do I have to purge an reinstall make after I resymlink the "build" folder in my modules.. | 09:10 |
| KE1HA | Try this guide for building ur kernel: http://www.digitalhermit.com/linux/Kernel-Build-HOWTO.html | 09:11 |
| SmokeyD | Hey everyone, I have ubuntu karmic installed on my external usb harddrive | 09:12 |
| === john is now known as Guest36241 | ||
| SmokeyD | is it somehow possible to make grub2 not look at the fixed disks in the machine when it detects os-es? | 09:12 |
| collabra | christopheb: it sounds like there may have been some kind of corruption to your system in the last make you did | 09:13 |
| === ikon is now known as vadviktor | ||
| SmokeyD | now, everytime I do a kernel upgrade, grub2 not only detects ubuntu on my external harddrive, but also all the os-es on the fixed disk | 09:13 |
| christopheb | allright, so what does purging mean? | 09:13 |
| SmokeyD | and I don't want these in my boot menu | 09:13 |
| collabra | christopheb: it just purges the current make and it's modules related to it | 09:14 |
| christopheb | ok, and what do I have to do for it in order to "purge"? | 09:14 |
| collabra | christopheb: then, it just a matter of reinstalling make | 09:14 |
| collabra | apt-get purge make | 09:14 |
| christopheb | oh ok, too easy :) | 09:15 |
| collabra | then,... apt-get install make | 09:15 |
| bullgard | The article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable descrbes envoronment variables for any operating system. Is there an article that describes environment variables for Linux? | 09:15 |
| jken146 | /msg ubottu !w | 09:16 |
| christopheb | Hmm, "make" itself works | 09:16 |
| don-i | when i do sudo apt-get upgrade, i get a message that says the following have been kept back. why ? | 09:16 |
| christopheb | but when using it in the phc-intel folder, it just keeps waiting | 09:16 |
| collabra | christopheb: ??? | 09:16 |
| christopheb | make[1]: *** No rule to make target `kernel/bounds.c', needed by `kernel/bounds.s'. Stop. | 09:17 |
| christopheb | oh wrong | 09:17 |
| littlegreen | Hey guys! I have proftpd set up on Ubuntu 9.10. All is ok, but one thing: I can't login when a user has NTFS home dir. I figured out user may not have permission to moun the partition... will "sudo adduser <username> admin" solve my problem? | 09:17 |
| einstein1969 | hi to all! | 09:17 |
| christopheb | the error I'm getting while doing make in a random dir: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 09:17 |
| christopheb | but in the folder with the makefile of the intel phc, it just keeps waiting | 09:17 |
| christopheb | I enter the command and a newline comes, but nothing happens | 09:18 |
| iceroot | don-i: have a look at man apt-get for upgrade and dist-upgrade | 09:18 |
| Myrtti | littlegreen: not necessarily. would be safer to mount the partition with proper ownership flags | 09:18 |
| einstein1969 | where i find information for problem starting Mac Os-X from ubuntu 9.10/grub2 on mac-intel mackbook? thanks | 09:18 |
| littlegreen | Myrtti security is really not my consern in the matter. It's a public FTP server... | 09:18 |
| collabra | christopheb: what are you trying to compile? | 09:18 |
| christopheb | intel phc | 09:19 |
| collabra | christopheb: what's phc/ | 09:19 |
| collabra | ? | 09:19 |
| bazhang | christopheb, from a PPA? | 09:19 |
| don-i | iceroot, i do a apt-get update and upgrade daily, this is just the first ive seen this | 09:19 |
| KE1HA | are those the ICC compilers ? | 09:19 |
| don-i | now, i have also tried to added a ppa for amsn, and then tried to update, and thats when i noticed it | 09:19 |
| christopheb | bazhang, , I installed the phc kernel from ppa. But I have to compile the phc modules myself | 09:19 |
| don-i | so, i think i did something wrong | 09:19 |
| littlegreen | Myrtti anyway. How do I mount it with PROPER ownership flags? I mounted it from the gnome taskbar menu... | 09:19 |
| christopheb | Linux-PHC is a project to enable Linux users to undervolt their CPUs. | 09:20 |
| bazhang | don-i, how did you add the PPA | 09:20 |
| KE1HA | nvm, it's a CPU tool. | 09:20 |
| indus | ok what is the point of having a ppa when we have an ubuntu proposed | 09:20 |
| don-i | bazhang, https://launchpad.net/~amsn-daily/+archive/ppa top paragraph | 09:20 |
| KE1HA | did you follow their guide for installing ? | 09:20 |
| bazhang | don-i, sudo add-apt-repository : PPA name ? | 09:21 |
| ikonia | indus: it existing long befoe the concept of PPA | 09:21 |
| ikonia | indus: proposed is a long standing route | 09:21 |
| collabra | christopheb: i see,... well, it sounds like there might be something wrong with the makefile or some component of the make | 09:21 |
| don-i | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:amsn-daily | 09:21 |
| iceroot | don-i: and the manpage tells you why | 09:21 |
| christopheb | but it "did" something before I changed the symlinks, but it gave an error | 09:21 |
| bazhang | don-i, then you updated your sources.list (sudo apt-get update) ? | 09:21 |
| don-i | iceroot, ill have a look, thanks | 09:21 |
| don-i | bazhang, yup | 09:21 |
| Myrtti | littlegreen: man mount.ntfs-3g "uid=value and gid=value" | 09:21 |
| bazhang | don-i, what about apt-cache search appname | 09:22 |
| indus | ikonia, these days everyone seems to trust ppa's blindly, | 09:22 |
| ikonia | indus: it's an issue, I agree | 09:22 |
| aza | can anyone help me mount my hdds so i do not have to use password everytime? | 09:22 |
| indus | ikonia, i think proposed will disappear soon | 09:22 |
| don-i | bazhang, never used it before... | 09:22 |
| KE1HA | i'd delete the /src do a new ./configure make clean then install or make install whichever its calling for. | 09:22 |
| collabra | christopheb: it sounds like 'make' is actually working,...the problem sounds like it lays with the compile | 09:22 |
| don-i | bazhang, comes up with the packages | 09:23 |
| christopheb | I see | 09:23 |
| don-i | i guess those are already installed | 09:23 |
| littlegreen | Myrtti thanks... | 09:23 |
| indus | i hardly know of people using proposed, and you know ikonia ,the people testing deveopment releases why should they have proposed when even main is unstable | 09:23 |
| jken146 | !fstab | aza | 09:23 |
| ubottu | aza: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 09:23 |
| don-i | bazhang, i needed to do a dist-upgrade | 09:23 |
| KE1HA | you should be able to do a make clean if the ./confiure worked correctly. | 09:23 |
| don-i | when i did that, it said that those packages would be updated | 09:24 |
| bazhang | don-i, its fixed? | 09:24 |
| don-i | iceroot, good call | 09:24 |
| Gryphon4 | Myrtti:Is there any thing wrong with this code?sudo apt-get-d ubuntu restricted extras | 09:24 |
| don-i | bazhang, i guess so. | 09:24 |
| christopheb | KE1HA, who are you talking to? | 09:24 |
| Myrtti | Gryphon4: sudo apt-get -d ubuntu-restricted-extras | 09:24 |
| Mrokii | hello. Does anybody know if it's possible to use Bios-upgrade tools with wine on Ubuntu 9.10? | 09:24 |
| iceroot | Gryphon4: there is much wrong | 09:24 |
| don-i | what exactly is dist-upgrade | 09:24 |
| iceroot | Gryphon4: sudo apt-get -d ubuntu-restricted-extras | 09:25 |
| collabra | christopheb: i think he's talking to you | 09:25 |
| don-i | new kernel ? | 09:25 |
| iceroot | don-i: the same as upgrade but without holding stuff back | 09:25 |
| bazhang | don-i, packages held back | 09:25 |
| christopheb | yes, was not sure | 09:25 |
| SwedeMike | don-i: upgrades to newer versions which might contain new functionality, "upgrade" upgrades for simple bugfixes only. | 09:25 |
| KE1HA | sri wrong window, was talking about Intel ICC-Compilers in another channel, forgot I was in this one. | 09:25 |
| iceroot | SwedeMike: wrong | 09:25 |
| lanzha | hahahha... | 09:25 |
| don-i | so, whats a better choice, upgrade or dist-upgrade ? | 09:25 |
| Gryphon4 | Thanks Dudes! | 09:25 |
| Myrtti | iceroot: beat you | 09:25 |
| SwedeMike | iceroot: so why are things held back? | 09:25 |
| lanzha | http://bayawak.tk | 09:26 |
| lanzha | visit my blog... | 09:26 |
| lanzha | http://bayawak.tk | 09:26 |
| lanzha | hehehe... | 09:26 |
| bazhang | lanzha, dont paste that here | 09:26 |
| iceroot | SwedeMike: because they change the install status of other packages | 09:26 |
| christopheb | there is no ./configure in the extracted tar | 09:26 |
| christopheb | it's just make prepare | 09:26 |
| collabra | christopheb; i would think that somethings wrong with the compile,... but i'm not there | 09:26 |
| ursus_ | Hello! I would like to record sound from my computer. Not only with my microphone, but I would like to record all the sounds that the computer plays. Which program should I use? | 09:26 |
| SwedeMike | iceroot: and why do they do that? | 09:26 |
| christopheb | even sudo make clean doesn't do anything | 09:26 |
| christopheb | really strange this | 09:26 |
| littlegreen | Myrtti based on the manual you gave me I figure I should login with the desired user account and mount the partition through it... I read in the manual "The defaults are uid and gid of the current process." Is my logic right? :) | 09:26 |
| jken146 | SwedeMike: No, that's not true at all. Read man apt-get | 09:27 |
| lanzha | where i can get ebook about linux security? | 09:28 |
| satish | how to get /dev/spidev automatically ? | 09:28 |
| SwedeMike | jken146: so if new options become available in config files etc, new major revision, I won't have to use dist-upgrade if the packages doesn't add new dependencies? | 09:29 |
| christopheb | pff whatever, I guess I'll just keep on being productive instead of seeking in a bunch of troubles with phc | 09:29 |
| indus | does all the software in proposed repo make it to main ? or stable rather | 09:29 |
| collabra | christopheb: :) | 09:30 |
| christopheb | thanks for the help collabra, but I always have kernel and compiling problems, and I just hate it | 09:30 |
| jken146 | SwedeMike: dist-upgrade can handle changing dependencies. upgrade doesn't do this; it just doesn't upgrade packages where this would require others to be removed | 09:30 |
| KE1HA | what version of gcc are you using, do a gcc -v | 09:30 |
| satish | KE1HA : hi | 09:31 |
| KE1HA | It sounds more like a toolchaing problem than a package problem to me. | 09:31 |
| SwedeMike | jken146: yeah, that I do understand. I was under the impression that it was needed for config changes as well | 09:31 |
| collabra | christopheb: that's why i use distro's and rarely compile anything but a kernel or minor program | 09:31 |
| Gryphon4 | iceroot, Myrtti: This is my computer annoying me!Ahhhhh E: Invalid operation ubuntu-restricted-extras What do i do now? | 09:31 |
| jken146 | SwedeMike: As for new features and bugfixes, Ubuntu does not do feature updates, only security updates and bug fixes. Each new release has the new features | 09:31 |
| christopheb | indeed collabra, but sometimes you just have to. I just want the same battery life as on windows (twice as much as ubuntu), so I have to install phc, but I need another kernel for it and so on... | 09:32 |
| KE1HA | make nornally fires off a bunch of errors at you if there's something wrong with the config, but to have it do nothing doesn't nto sound right. | 09:32 |
| jken146 | SwedeMike: (backports is the slight exception to this) | 09:32 |
| Myrtti | Gryphon4: sudo apt-get -d install ubuntu-restricted-extras, sorry | 09:32 |
| exs | hi, i deinstalled gnome-desktop and now i have no sound in totem. can someone says how to restore the sound? | 09:32 |
| collabra | christopheb: why do you need to compile more than the kernel? | 09:32 |
| jken146 | Myrtti, Gryphon4: apt-get -d means 'download only; don't install' | 09:33 |
| Myrtti | jken146: yes? | 09:33 |
| Myrtti | jken146: that's what he's been asking about for past two days, how to download but not to install | 09:33 |
| satish | Myrtti : Hi | 09:33 |
| christopheb | collabra, I need some modules | 09:33 |
| KE1HA | reading their site, you need to do it in fakeroot as well. | 09:34 |
| Myrtti | satish: ? | 09:34 |
| christopheb | KE1HA, talking to me again? | 09:34 |
| Myrtti | !who | 09:34 |

| KE1HA | you could hard link it with -l but the same would apply i'd think. | 09:54 |

| einstein1969 | collabra: thanks collabra! I have read and tried to reinstall/recover grub, but the problem persists... | 09:57 |

| capron | einstein1969, Yhee the problem with that channel is they are all sleeping :-) , I dont know what too do , but you might whant too go back too grub1 | 10:11 |
| Slart | thechef: I ended up using the windows software in a vm.. not pretty.. but it works | 10:11 |
| ct529 | I have difficulties on making flash player work on *ubuntu 910 at 64bit .... in Firefox cannot use the BBC iplayer .... which I can easily do on 32 bit | 10:11 |
| Myrtti | intgr: what do you mean? | 10:11 |
| jken146 | ct529: use get_iplayer | 10:12 |
| einstein1969 | capron, only grub2 support xnu kernel and new GPT format, but there is few documents... very little documentation and poor knowledge. grub1 is not the solution... | 10:12 |
| jken146 | ct529: That is, if it's just an issue with iplayer. Does flash work in general (youtube, etc)? | 10:12 |
| intgr | jken146: Ah ok, thanks | 10:13 |
| ct529 | jken146: it works on youtube, but I have random problems with other websites .... for example bbc website .... where it does not play at all | 10:13 |
| === xiong_ is now known as xiong | ||
| ct529 | jken146: bbc iplayer desktop works well .... I have installed it from bbc website .... | 10:14 |
| thechef | Slart: Hmm well just that a VM or alternate boot is too much inconvenience overhead, so that just scanning the documents to png is the better trade off. | 10:14 |
| clinton | asdfasdf | 10:14 |
| ct529 | jken146: but the videos on the bbc.co.uk/iplayer wbsite do not work at all in flash | 10:14 |
| === andatche_ is now known as andatche | ||
| jken146 | ct529: ok. It might help to remove and reinstall the flash plugin. sudo apt-get purge flashplugin* && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer (close firefox first) | 10:14 |
| ct529 | jken146: already done several times | 10:15 |
| KE1HA | which add-on did you install ? Ive seen a bug report on ADFlash, but can't find it at the moment, try the swf version. | 10:15 |
| Slart | thechef: have you tried running the pngs through tesseract or ocropus? | 10:15 |
| ct529 | the plugin from multiverse | 10:16 |
| jken146 | ct529: hm, ok. In that case, I don't know what would do the trick. I use get_iplayer (a command line program) that downloads iplayer content DRM free. | 10:17 |
| ct529 | jken146: does it allow you to search? | 10:17 |
| jken146 | ct529: yes. | 10:17 |
| ct529 | jken146: and doe sit allow to stream as well? | 10:17 |
| infid | can you cp files to a remote location like you can with scp? | 10:17 |
| capron | einstein1969, That is true hope some can help you and fix that problem. I googel you are not alone to have that error. | 10:17 |
| jken146 | ct529: yep. You can stream it to any player | 10:17 |
| KE1HA | i'd go with jken146 suggestion then of that fails, bug report it and try a different plug-in | 10:17 |
| ct529 | jken146: wow .... how? | 10:18 |
| jken146 | ct529: It can stream to stdout, so you can do anything you like with it | 10:18 |
| thechef | Slart, actually the ocr feature is not that important. Just thought that if i can just push one button and it scans 30 pages, doing OCR for searching the documents later, it would be nice. | 10:18 |
| KE1HA | go to FF add-on's | 10:18 |
| ct529 | jken146: yes, you just pipe it | 10:18 |
| Slart | thechef: yup.. that sounds nice.. | 10:19 |

| Gryphon4 | And Totem | 10:23 |
| hazeyez | i am running ubuntu from sun virtual box... how come every time i start up, open a terminal.. it has to install irssi every time? | 10:23 |

| indus | 720 p | 10:24 |
| indus | or 1080p | 10:24 |
| loquitus | indus: ok so if I open it with vlc, how would I play it? | 10:24 |
| jken146 | hazeyez: Are you running a live CD image? | 10:24 |
| indus | loquitus, vlc>file>open disc | 10:24 |
| Slart | hazeyez: huh? it installs irssi when you start the regular terminal? | 10:24 |
| Lanlost | Nice | 10:25 |
| indus | loquitus, but actually if its encryped iam not sure it will play, try it | 10:25 |
| KE1HA | yeah, vlc is good, so is mplayer. make sure you get all the codecs though. | 10:25 |
| Rishab_ | hi evry one | 10:25 |

| loquitus | indus: it says that It cannot open dvd:///dev/sr2 | 10:25 |
| lungan | Having some trouble with .mkv and .m2ts files, since my tv just takes .mp4 files, how do I fix that problem? | 10:25 |
| loquitus | indus: so if it is an encrypted movie (most likely), I am hosed? | 10:25 |
| hazeyez | every time i open a terminal in a new ubuntu session, i type irssi and it says that its not installed | 10:25 |
| hazeyez | i basically have to install it everytime | 10:25 |
| Slart | hazeyez: ah.. then you're running the live cd.. not a hard drive instal | 10:26 |
| indus | loquitus, see all info is here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD | 10:26 |

| Slart | hazeyez: have you tried unmounting the ubuntu iso file you probably mounted to install it? | 10:26 |
| jken146 | hazeyez: Yes, so you're running the live CD image (the ISO) in your virtual machine. You can't save changes to the live CD | 10:26 |

| Gryphon4 | Ah indus: cheak your pm | 10:27 |
| jken146 | hazeyez: Yes, you must install ubuntu to a partition (this could be a virtual partition that your VM deals with) | 10:27 |
| Slart | hazeyez: well.. either you install it (and be able to install software and such and make it stick) or you run from the live cd and get everything reset every time you reboot | 10:27 |

| satish | any one has idea, how to get /dev/spidev automatically after boot ? | 10:27 |
| ct529 | jken146: sorry ....for example, if I do get_iplayer --stream --type radio --pid=10013 --player "vlc" | 10:28 |
| Rishab_ | R u der ?? | 10:28 |
| hazeyez | so installing it will not cancel out my windows vista, right? it will basically just run only thru virtualbox? | 10:28 |
| indus | loquitus, so it says, you need to rip and put on hard disk then play it i think | 10:28 |
| indus | loquitus, aah crappy drm methods | 10:28 |
| Slart | hazeyez: if you install it in virtualbox, then yes | 10:28 |
| loquitus | indus: that's insane... I have to copy the whole damn movie to my hard drive? | 10:28 |
| oxymoron | hazeyez: If you install it INSIDE Virtualbox Vista wil reamin intact yes | 10:29 |
| indus | loquitus, just download a torrent of the movie and play it, works great | 10:29 |
| indus | loquitus, since you own the original copy, its legal i believe | 10:29 |
| bazhang | indus, dont suggest piracy here | 10:29 |

| KE1HA | yes, using dpkg | 10:38 |
| WingS212 | KE1HA, should i use a command for this or directly can be use? | 10:38 |
| DJones | WingS212: I've not used debian so I can't answer that with any certainty, the packages will be similar, but could be some differences | 10:38 |
| bazhang | WingS212, no. dont mix repos from different distros | 10:39 |
| KE1HA | go with apt-get if you can, as it solved deps, but if you can't, the use dpkg | 10:39 |
| indus | Rishab_, sorry, was distracted | 10:40 |
| WingS212 | KE1HA, thank you for way | 10:40 |
| KE1HA | I very rarely have to use dpkg .. I think I used it for ndiswrapper on 8.04 but that'a about it. or compile form source. | 10:40 |

| capron | Yeah ubuntu 9.10 does a good work finding drivers , In windows xp I have to download them | 10:44 |

| gangil | ? | 10:46 |
| ct529 | jken146: thanks .... it is very strange because it does not really stream .... it downloads some bytes then plays few seconds then it stops and downloads, then it player other few second stops and downloads and so on | 10:46 |
| KE1HA | yeeah, it's got a dual mouse, touch-pad and the knob deal in the key's, both work as well. Stick with the main branches on new releases, much less pain. | 10:46 |

| Gryphon4 | ok thanks indus(talk pm) | 10:46 |
| gangil | ^ | 10:47 |
| hazeyez | ok guys i installed ubuntu to the hdd, but now when i load it it asks for a username and password and i never set one so it wont let me log in | 10:47 |
| indus | hazeyez, just use ubuntu username | 10:47 |
| indus | hazeyez, or just leave it and it will login anyway | 10:48 |
| indus | hazeyez, just 10 sec | 10:48 |
| KE1HA | you had to set something to get though the installer. | 10:48 |

| hazeyez | well im eager to understand it all.. i thank you guys for the help | 10:56 |
| jken146 | hazeyez: yes, it will do. It should give you a choice. Go for 'root prompt' or WTTE | 10:56 |
| KE1HA | I learn allot from these guys here everyday, as well as the bigs channel. | 10:56 |

| hazeyez | now what | 10:57 |
| hazeyez | is tony-laptop my username? | 10:57 |
| KE1HA | no, that's the name you gave the box. | 10:57 |
| jken146 | hazeyez: no, that's the hostname (name of the computer). This should show you the user name: ls /home | 10:58 |
| hazeyez | ohh ok | 10:58 |
| jken146 | Did it say tony? | 10:58 |
| quietone | or 'whoami' for username | 10:59 |
| KE1HA | just do a cat /etc/passwd if your logged in as root | 10:59 |
| KE1HA | that will list all yoru users. | 10:59 |
| hazeyez | ok ok .. i set the passwd... now how to reboot from here? | 10:59 |
| jken146 | KE1HA: overkill | 10:59 |

| KE1HA | LOL.. rrr yeah, that's easy enough. | 11:01 |
| jken146 | hazeyez: The max you can get will depend on what virtualbox does (resizingthe window somehow). Then look in System->Preferences->Display | 11:02 |
| KE1HA | Im just used to going to the user list, not the /homes. Its ok I suppose if there's one or two users, but hundreds, makes it tricky. | 11:03 |

| jpds | bullgard: Or export DEBEMAIL="you@somewhere.com" ? | 11:19 |
| bullgard | jpds: I'd appreciate an answer and no question. | 11:19 |

| r3104d | Not certain then. I came at it from a different direction. | 11:21 |
| r3104d | I had options. | 11:21 |
| jpds | bullgard: It's just a shell environment variable. | 11:21 |
| hazeyez | jken146: i was told for the resolution problem to install guest addons, where is that? | 11:22 |
| KE1HA | yeah, that's all ya need to do is export it in .bashrc or whatever your shell is. | 11:22 |
| Spajderix | Hi, I've recently installed pure-ftpd on 8.04 and tried to do custom authentication as described in http://download.pureftpd.org/pub/pure-ftpd/doc/README.Authentication-Modules. Everything start fine, socket file is being created, but when trying to connect via ftp command i get "No control connection for command: No such file or directory" with 421 error code. run script is simple python script that | 11:22 |
| Spajderix | prints out everything needet to succesfully authenticate, and there is no error in dmesg; /var/log/messages or stdout according what went wrong. Does anyone know how to fix it? | 11:22 |
| bullgard | jpds: I know that it is a shell environment variable. And I would like to know which program did it set. | 11:22 |

| jken146 | hazeyez: IIRC that's a virtualbox thing, so you'll need to install it in your host system | 11:24 |
| r3104d | It seems the only time I can see them is when Were all on a Domain. | 11:24 |

| Spajderix | xen: Exaile | 11:36 |
| xen | ?? | 11:36 |
| Sorell | KE1HA: I am trying to setup a LTSP server | 11:36 |
| KE1HA | there's lots of them though, but mplayer and VLC seem to get the most attention from what I see. | 11:36 |
| Sorell | KE1HA: and am having a bear of a time at it | 11:36 |
| xen | kk fine...thnxx a lot | 11:36 |
| KE1HA | Sorell, just download the ub-8.04-server version then. it's a dead easy install. | 11:37 |
| Sorell | KE1HA: the problem seems to be that there is some sort of DHCP client | 11:37 |
| Sorell | KE1HA: I am using the alternatives cd | 11:37 |
| KE1HA | well, depends, if you want the server to be a DHCP server, then you need to set it up, else, it's is just a DHCP client. | 11:38 |
| Sorell | KE1HA: IDK what version | 11:38 |
| Sorell | that's fine but | 11:38 |
| Sorell | when it's just a client | 11:38 |
| funqshun | after i dropped my laptop by accident, it keeps logging off on its own, what can i do? i run karmic | 11:38 |
| Sorell | it doesn't seem to be able to host thins clients | 11:38 |
| KE1HA | Yeah, the alternative CD is commandline only install, that's what I use. | 11:39 |
| Sorell | right | 11:39 |
| xen | wat irc chat client r u ppl using? | 11:39 |
| KE1HA | IUm, yeah it can host Thin Clients, b ut you have to set up the DHCP Server, not just the client on the server itself. | 11:40 |
| fenre | bitchx | 11:40 |
| fuzzybunny | is there anyway to associate evolution with .ics files so that it imports them by double clicking on them? | 11:40 |
| suigeneris | xen xchat | 11:40 |
| funqshun | xen: i use pidgin | 11:40 |
| funqshun | can anyone help me with my automatically logging off machine pls? | 11:40 |
| KE1HA | xchat here. but gonna try Pidgin | 11:40 |
| joebodo | fuzzybunny, you can set up a mime type | 11:41 |
| xen | thank u again.... m using xchat presently.... pretty nice atmosphere in here | 11:41 |
| Sorell | well when I try to be the server it doesn't seem to want to give out ips | 11:41 |
| fuzzybunny | joebodo, is there a faq or some guide that explains how to do that? | 11:41 |
| Sorell | even when it's the only DHCP server on the network | 11:41 |
| archboxman | KE1HA: using xchat not great like my irssi :) | 11:41 |
| KE1HA | tyhere's a whoel section on the Ubuntu Server Guide section on setting up as a DHCP server. 2x NIC and a switch, etc etc. | 11:42 |
| xen | wait aa sec... xchat vs irssi... which 1s better? | 11:42 |
| KE1HA | Yeah, I just loaded one real quick, so irssi is better ? | 11:42 |
| joebodo | fuzzybunny, 1 sec- i have some notes somewhere | 11:42 |
| iceroot | !best | xen | 11:43 |
| Sorell | KE1HA: yeah I have 2 nics | 11:43 |
| ubottu | xen: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 11:43 |
| Sorell | and dhcpd3 is running | 11:43 |
| Sorell | :( | 11:43 |
| fuzzybunny | I have a massive amount of .ics files and I really don't want to manually locate each one and import them. | 11:43 |
| KE1HA | Sorell: it's far to much to go into here, but follow the Ubuntu Server Guide, it's pretty good. | 11:44 |
| Sorell | ty | 11:44 |
| xen | its just m new to the linux environment.... trying to get to knw things frm the ppl arnd here... | 11:44 |
| bullgard | jpds: ~/.bashrc includes a line: "export DEBEMAIL='foo@bar'." What program wrote this line into this file? | 11:44 |
| joebodo | fuzzybunny, http://paste.ubuntu.com/373146/ | 11:44 |
| xen | hw do u run .tar.gz files? | 11:45 |
| hazeyez | hello how do i install guest additions in virtual box | 11:45 |
| joebodo | fuzzybunny, last line is for testing the mime type | 11:45 |
| KE1HA | Sorell: here's another guide that's pretty good also: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-and-configure-dhcp-server-in-ubuntu-server.html | 11:45 |
| hazeyez | i go to do it and it says file cannot be found, unmount something | 11:45 |
| jrib | xen: you don't. Why do you want to exactly? | 11:45 |
| r3104d | Does anyone know how I can see the Windows machines on my wireless network? | 11:46 |
| jrib | hazeyez: be precise with errors to get better help please. Try #vbox for that one though | 11:46 |
| KE1HA | On'ce you've done one DHCP server, you ask your self why you spent the money on a router, it's real easy. | 11:46 |
| fuzzybunny | joebodo, it just opened a blank overrides.xml is there a specific line I have to put in there? | 11:46 |
| xen | i downloaded an apllication.... its on my desktop.... .tar.gz format... no idea abt wat to do next | 11:46 |
| jrib | hazeyez: actually, if the guest system is ubuntu, the guest additions should be in the repositories too | 11:46 |
| jrib | xen: be specefic. What application? | 11:47 |
| xen | sonbird | 11:47 |
| Sorell | thanks KE1HA I will give that a look | 11:47 |
| xen | /songbird. | 11:47 |
| KE1HA | well move it to Downloads or something first, you don't want to extract it to your desktop :-) | 11:47 |
| xen | hmmm | 11:47 |
| xen | next | 11:47 |
| joebodo | fuzzybunny, i cant pastebin an example cause it's xml | 11:47 |
| jrib | xen: you don't install songbird with a tar.gz. One sec | 11:48 |

| r3104d | I can't see or be seen (MY other windows boxes)on my wireless network. | 11:53 |
| iceroot | r3104d: you can see them by "ping"? | 11:53 |
| KE1HA | you need to log into your router to see them. | 11:53 |
| KE1HA | unless your router is a DHCP server like we were just talkign about. | 11:53 |
| KE1HA | yes you should be able to ping them though. | 11:54 |
| r3104d | No. Can't even tell there's another system there. | 11:54 |
| KE1HA | that's a good thing, that's how its supposed to be. | 11:54 |
| r3104d | Unless you're wanting to xfer files and what not. | 11:55 |
| KE1HA | on your WinDoze box you'd need to share the folders, or use Samba on the Linux bos to share their folders. | 11:55 |
| joebodo | r3104d, do u have a firewall on ur windows box ? | 11:55 |
| r3104d | So that's what Samba's for? | 11:55 |

| hazeyez | i am trying to install guest addons on virtualbox... it comes up with this error | 11:56 |
| hazeyez | i got to devices>install guest addons.. it says error: unable to mount cd image c:progra~1\sun\virtua~1\vboxguestadditions.iso... would you like to force mounting? | could not mount the media c:progra~1\sun\virtua~1\vboxguestadditions.iso (VERR_PDM_MEDIA_LOCKED) i click <force unmount> and nothing happens| could not mount the media | 11:56 |
| hazeyez | what can i do? | 11:56 |
| KE1HA | Oh man, it does allot, but basically, file and print server sharing. | 11:56 |
| KE1HA | for a windows box to see Linux folders, you create a Samba shared folder, and on windows, you simply share the folder though with windows sharing utility. | 11:57 |
| etfb | The suspend/resume feature on my laptop has stopped working. Can someone point me to an article or tutorial on how to troubleshoot this? It seems to have happened with the latest kernel upgrade, but booting with an older kernel doesn't help. | 11:58 |
| KE1HA | hazeyez, you probably need to create the mount point first. | 11:58 |
| hazeyez | can you please explaint hat to me | 11:59 |
| KE1HA | make a dir: mkdir /dev/mnt then mount it mount /dev/cdrom -t iso9660 /mnt/cdrom | 12:00 |
| hazeyez | ok then go to install guest addons? | 12:01 |
| mobius2 | greetings | 12:01 |
| hyperstream | mobius2, hello | 12:01 |
| KE1HA | yeah, they will probably already be there as it's copying those to /tmp or something like that. | 12:01 |
| hazeyez | ok ill try it, standby | 12:01 |
| KE1HA | I don't do allot of of Linux VM, mostly use VMPlayer on WinDoze box's but it's the same principal. | 12:02 |
| mobius2 | I am deeply entrenched in an attempt to make a win32 swf decompiler run in Crossover. I am afraid I've hit the end of the line. I am out of ideas | 12:02 |
| KE1HA | what the virtual application your using ? | 12:03 |
| bullgard | jpds: ~/.bashrc includes a line: "export DEBEMAIL='foo@bar'." What program wrote this line into this file? | 12:03 |

| KE1HA | mkdir ~/name of directory | 12:05 |
| dregin | hi | 12:05 |
| secret | I want to create a directory called spanish 3 | 12:05 |
| wejick | secret, open your nautilus | 12:05 |
| KE1HA | r3104d .. you still there, I just saw your PM. | 12:05 |
| secret | ok | 12:05 |
| dregin | my grub binary, menu.lst and stage1 have disappeared. Was there a grub update released recently?? | 12:05 |
| wejick | secret, mkdir spanish\ 3 | 12:06 |
| wejick | secret, '\' is escape carachter | 12:06 |
| secret | wejick is that something I need to put in the terminal ? | 12:06 |
| ct529 | jken146: get_iplayer is really good .... it is working well! | 12:07 |
| KE1HA | Grub2 doesnt' use menu.1st anymore its .cfg I think now. | 12:07 |
| wejick | ya, if you need gui you can use your nautilus | 12:07 |
| mobius2 | secret, I would suggest using the graphical interface called Nautilus to make file system changes until you are more adept with the terminal. If you need root access for some reason , you can start Nautilus as root with limited powers by typing sudo nautilus | 12:07 |
| ct529 | jken146: do you know whether there is anything of that sort for other services, like arte or lovefilm? | 12:07 |
| hazeyez | ke1ha: cannot make directory /dev/mnt | 12:07 |
| hazeyez | :( | 12:08 |
| secret | ok so I have opened nautilus..... | 12:08 |
| wejick | any one can you try this? http://sisrestore.googlecode.com/files/Sisrestore%200.9.4.tar.bz2 | 12:08 |
| mobius2 | secret, where would you like the new directory to be located in your file system? | 12:08 |
| secret | in the home directory | 12:09 |
| KE1HA | Oh, right, do you have a cdrom already on the machine ? if so just mount /dev/cdrom | 12:09 |
| KE1HA | then cd cdrom | 12:09 |
| mobius2 | secret, you should see the current root directory in your nautilus window, simply click the up arrow until you are able to find HOME then open the HOME directory and you should be able to find your way throughout your own username filesystem from there | 12:09 |
| KE1HA | also, what virtual application are you using ? | 12:10 |
| mobius2 | secret, just remember unless you typed sudo you will already be in your username | 12:10 |
| hazeyez | ke1ha: /dev/sr0 already mounted | 12:10 |
| KE1HA | then all you need to do is cd cdrom | 12:10 |
| loquitus | I just restarted my system and got a kernel panic not syncing vfs unable to mount root fs... but when I went and chose an older kernel from grub, it booted fine... what gives? | 12:11 |
| KE1HA | then do an ls to see if the add-ons are there. | 12:11 |
| secret | ok so I have gone to places then the home folder, where do I need to go from there, I am a complete and utter novice with ubuntu unfortunately, sorry | 12:11 |
| wejick | mobius2, secret use menu [places]->[home] | 12:11 |
| loquitus | actually, the other difference is when it worked, I had booted from the ubuntu cd and said to boot off the first hard disk... so perhaps that was the difference | 12:11 |
| mobius2 | do you see a directory with your normal level username? | 12:11 |
| mobius2 | if not then just type the address in the location bar | 12:12 |
| hazeyez | ke1ha: bash: cd: cdrom: no such file or directory | 12:12 |
| KE1HA | hazeyez, i need to know what applicaiton your virtual software is, I cna help you netter that way | 12:12 |

| hazeyez | i am trying to instal guest additions in virtualbox for ubuntu | 12:19 |
| indus | n00p, just logout and login | 12:19 |

| xguru | indus, have any idea why or how to fix the problem i'm having with alsamixer? Every time i reboot its muted the master volume? | 12:20 |
| capron | wejick, Thanks I will read this , I am just a littel bit afraid that I will mes up the system. | 12:20 |
| abhijit | i am programmer | 12:20 |
| abhijit | i am student | 12:20 |
| indus | xguru, yes, i think you mute the system before shutting down, and it remembers the setting | 12:20 |
| KE1HA | when you installed debmail, it added that to your profile. or if the system had it installed by default, look at ./etc/bashrc and your'll see it there, if so all new users added will get it in their profile. | 12:20 |
| abhijit | assume that i want to sovle some bug then whts the procedure? | 12:20 |
| indus | xguru, do one thing, shutdown while making sure sound is full, then reboot and see | 12:20 |
| indus | xguru, then we can trouble shoot further | 12:21 |
| xguru | indus, nope, fresh install...booted up muted and reboot with it up and still reboots muted | 12:21 |
| indus | abhijit, well, ask in #ubuntu-bugs | 12:21 |
| abhijit | ok | 12:21 |
| indus | abhijit, but, yes there are procedures | 12:21 |

| Gangrel | indus nope from ubuntu anyway i restored everything but i am still on the same point of mounting the disks | 12:30 |
| indus | Gangrel, i think you mounted too many partitions on diff points | 12:30 |
| Gangrel | indus today i used mountmanager to mount them so i get fstab automatically filled | 12:30 |
| jken146 | ct529: I *think* there's an option that makes it spit out all the info it has on a programme, something like --streaminfo | 12:31 |
| Gangrel | indus the thing is that i cannot get the mounts to be read and write | 12:31 |
| asdff | I am running Karmic and have a strange error. Whenever I use backspace to go back a file in Thunar it makes a heinous beeping sound.

I have tried some solutions on the Ubuntu forums to remove a module allegedly causing it, as well as blacklisting it, however this has not done anything. Any ideas? | 12:31 |
| indus | Gangrel, aah yes | 12:31 |
| asdff | Oh wait alt-tab doesn't beep anymore nvm. | 12:31 |
| indus | Gangrel, did you use the term 'defaults' ? in fstab | 12:33 |

| cosmodad | I had to remove and re-insert my sound card module and now changing volume level via the mixer app doesn't affect the real volume anymore (however, adjusting "master" or "pcm" in the volume control details still works). How can I fix this? | 12:34 |
| indus | Gangrel, aah yes the ntfs ones probably | 12:34 |
| Gangrel | indus they are all vfat | 12:34 |

| * indus goes for a smoke | 13:03 | |
| FeasibilityStudy | theres got to be some way to fix flash. Maybe I have an outdated version? Does anyone know where to get the *latest* 64 bit? | 13:03 |

| IP-v6 | thanx | 13:03 |
| xguru | indus, I tried "sudo chmod 755 /var/lib/alsa/asound.state", set volume, "alsactl store", "sudo gedit /etc/rc.local" and added "alsactl restore"....this didn't work. I had to do everything listed, but instead of adding the line to the rc.local i had to add it to startup applications and everything now works | 13:03 |
| KE1HA | ikonia, what are you using ? | 13:03 |
| ikonia | KE1HA: does it matter ? | 13:04 |
| xguru | indus, the help has been greatly appreciated!!!! | 13:04 |

| ikonia | KE1HA: irssi | 13:04 |
| aman_josan2001 | is it possible to upload the backup file directly to ubuntu one | 13:05 |
| KE1HA | rr... im using xchat and was just looking for alternatives. | 13:05 |

| tyrosine | QUESTION>> I want to generate an image of a spectrogram/waterfall display (frequency vs. time) of a 10 second WAV file. What's an easy way to do this?

| wejick | xen, sudo telinit 1 | 13:07 |

| Dr_Willis | xen: CLOSE X, go to the console.. thts what its saying, You cant have X running if you are going to install the drivers | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | guess he tryed sudo service gdm stop :P | 13:08 |
| KE1HA | Dr_Willis, looks like it. Also, the latest NV drivers are not all that stable at the moment. | 13:09 |
| KE1HA | had all sorts of issues with my GTX-280, all drivers problems. | 13:09 |

| KE1HA | mengu, remove a package or source-distribution point | 13:48 |
| lantjie | cruge: select the first one: install side by side | 13:49 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, no I only see XUBUNTU logo and the square moving to right and left. this is at the begining of the installation, after you select if you wanna try xubuntu without changing the computer or if you would like to install xubuntu | 13:49 |
| cruge | I got 3Tb space so should be able to do one drive for just 9.10 | 13:49 |
| mengu | KE1HA: i think i have added wrong uri for the karmic package (i'm using jaunty) so it cannot parse that one | 13:49 |
| cruge | lantjie | 13:50 |
| cruge | lantjie will do | 13:50 |

| Spanglish_7776 | ok | 13:54 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, if i do ESC then "e" it only shows a small amount of text, than it goes again into quiet splash mode... | 13:54 |
| axz | Spanglish_7776, yeps > pptp-linux is already the newest version. | 13:54 |
| KE1HA | you can rsync byt time stamp or content. the time value is a threshold before considering the file needs to be changed / updated. | 13:54 |

| Spanglish_7776 | great hazeyes | 13:57 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, when i confirm "try xubuntu without installing to computer", there is a delay, and then i press ESC and e, but this only gives me so little information, then it goes back onto the quiet splash mode. With your question so your not making it though the kernel boot process at all then?, What are your trying to say? | 13:57 |
| Spanglish_7776 | I forgot your name when I got home. I was like, what was their name again.. | 13:57 |
| Spanglish_7776 | what fixed it? | 13:57 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, sri I was trying to do this from memory, follow this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelBoot | 13:58 |
| cruge | lantjie Im back, though going to take a while got to move some Gb to make room | 13:59 |

| DJones | !lucid | en | 13:59 |
| ubottu | en: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 | 13:59 |

| obiwan_ | please could anybody explain me this about resolution time at fat32? http://pastebin.com/f56ed30e9 | 14:00 |
| obiwan_ | it's just 4 lineas but i don't understand | 14:00 |
| axz | Spanglish_7776, http://pastebin.com/d637233df | 14:01 |
| cruge | lantjie I was told that there was some issues with the Nvidia 750 chipsets | 14:01 |
| axz | Spanglish_7776, i tried the url you gave me.. | 14:01 |
| Amanda98 | olaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | 14:01 |
| Amanda98 | ellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo | 14:02 |
| sipior | obiwan_: rsync treats two timestamps as being "simultaneous" if they differ by less than modify-window. So "13:45:27" and "13:45:28" would be considered the same by rsync if the window was at least one second. | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas | 14:03 |
| axz | Spanglish_7776, i get this error at end nm-pptp-service-18621 fatal[open_callmgr:pptp.c:479]: Call manager exited with error 256 | 14:03 |
| khem_ | can anybody give me advice on how i can map ctrl (25) + 3B to left tag and ctrl (25) + 3C to right tag aswell as ctrl (25) + 33 to pipe with xmodmap? | 14:04 |
| * cmege is away: Occupé | 14:04 | |
| obiwan_ | yeah sipior but why would fat32 have a different time than ext3? that's explained there , it's got something to do with resolving times, but i don't get it | 14:05 |
| Pici | !away > cmege | 14:05 |
| ubottu | cmege, please see my private message | 14:05 |
| sipior | obiwan_: it is the way it is because that's how fat32 was designed. clocks always have an error, and fat32 simply asserts that the timestamps are accurate to within two seconds. | 14:07 |
| Spanglish_7776 | axz, brb | 14:08 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: i don't understand that | 14:08 |
| axz | sure | 14:08 |
| sipior | obiwan_: well, which part? | 14:08 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: what's about fat32 asserts that timestamps are accurate to withing two seconds? | 14:08 |
| ubuntu | hi there, i downloaded xubuntu to install to my system, half way though install it failed, after formating my harddrive, it loads up live to test the os out, | 14:08 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: does it mean that whenever a fat32 fs changes a modifiaction time it adds 2 seconds? | 14:09 |
| ubuntu | but i cant even install it in the live os with out it having error due to faulty disk | 14:09 |
| ubuntu | not sure what to do from here, im pretty stuck | 14:09 |
| ubuntu | i only now have a live os. | 14:09 |
| Myrtti | ubuntu: ubuntu systems are fairly good in detecting faulty disks in comparison to, say, xp. could it be that you indeed have a faulty disk? | 14:09 |
| otak | obiwan:no it remembers to the nearest 2 seconds | 14:10 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, it stops saying IO APIC resources could not be allocated. and the next line is loading, please wait... | 14:10 |
| DrMrHorse | karmic tells me my disk is broken as well, but lucid does not | 14:11 |
| ubuntu | Myrtti, possibaly, but i now need to try get some kind of installation running with out the cd' like some kinda online installation? or some how download image to my harddrive then run it like a deamon tools? | 14:11 |
| ubuntu | is any of that possible | 14:11 |
| DrMrHorse | so being that little else works for me on karmic, im not paying attention to the warning | 14:11 |
| ubuntu | since the cd is installable from in the os. | 14:11 |

| huguito99 | hola | 14:11 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, now it says out of memory, so it looks like i need to put more RAM into the motherboard | 14:11 |
| raullll | raulillo_1999@hotmail.com | 14:12 |
| Pici | raullll: Please stop that. | 14:12 |
| sipior | obiwan_: no, it means that the timestamp is within two seconds of the actual modification time. | 14:12 |
| obiwan_ | otak: i still don't get it :( | 14:12 |
| huguito99 | Olaa!! | 14:12 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, ok, with the same process disable ( remove ) APIC as well as the nosplash and quiet. | 14:12 |
| raullll | yes | 14:12 |
| huguito99 | rau | 14:12 |
| obiwan_ | otak: what do you mean with it remembers to the nearsetd 2 secs | 14:12 |
| huguito99 | rubio | 14:12 |
| raullll | becht | 14:12 |
| huguito99 | del eqipo | 14:12 |
| sipior | obiwan_: in other words, the times shown are reliable to within 2 seconds. | 14:12 |
| huguito99 | olaaaaaaaaaaaa | 14:12 |
| huguito99 | alguien es español¿? | 14:13 |
| Pici | !es | huguito99 | 14:13 |
| ubottu | huguito99: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 14:13 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, there's another guy that just posted Issues on Kub as well, there may be a script issue. | 14:13 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: :? :(( i still don't understand. taht means that it may add up to 2 seconds to the real timestamp ? | 14:13 |
| obiwan_ | ok sipior that's what my last message says right? | 14:13 |
| sipior | obiwan_: or be 2 seconds behind, yes. | 14:13 |
| obiwan_ | ok right | 14:13 |
| bullgard | ~/.bashrc includes a line: "export DEBEMAIL='foo@bar'." What program wrote this line into this file? | 14:14 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, do you have a standard Ubuntu ISO you could try so we can eliminate the Xububtu as a possible cause? | 14:14 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: and why man rsync says setting a --modify-window=1 sec solves this? it's supposed to be 2 seconds, if they differ 1 seconds they are still different by 1 sec | 14:14 |
| ubuntu | i have the image extracted on a pen drive but its not bootable, is there a way to start the installation in the live system via the pen? | 14:14 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: or does ext* filesystems have at least 1 sec difference timestamp? | 14:15 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, does it matter which version? | 14:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: clarify wht you did exactly to get the stuff on the pen | 14:15 |
| KE1HA | No, jsut want to verify it's not a HW issue., | 14:15 |
| ubuntu | downloaded the iso, then in some extracting software i told it to extract the files to the pen drive | 14:16 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: what extracting software? | 14:16 |
| otak | ubuntu:AFAIK the pen is written to during use so it can only be used once. | 14:16 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: you dont just copy files from an iso file to the pendrive and expect it to work. Use a tool like Unetbootin | 14:16 |
| ubuntu | ouch, i screwed that up then | 14:17 |
| Kerio | hello | 14:17 |
| Kerio | i have some issues with my custom kernel on 9.10 | 14:17 |
| ubuntu | Dr_Willis, is there a way i can run installation some how off the net? or even download another copy and burn it while live? using 2 dvd drives, one to keep the live running and one to burn | 14:18 |
| KE1HA | ubuntu, try this :-) http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-usb-bar | 14:18 |
| ubuntu | and a harddrive or pen drive to save on? | 14:18 |
| Kerio | earlier with grub1 i had not problem editing it and booting on to custom kernel | 14:18 |
| ubuntu | thanks KE1HA | 14:18 |
| kali1 | hello everybody | 14:18 |
| Kerio | but now i only get mount: Mounting /dev/root on /root failed: no such device | 14:18 |

| kali1 | i have installed ubuntu9.10 | 14:18 |
| sipior | obiwan_: see here, for example: http://nedbatchelder.com/blog/200801/rsync_on_windows_disk_to_disk.html. | 14:19 |
| kali1 | but it has resolution problem | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: ive used the live cd to make a bootable usb flash drife. it has a tool in the menus to do that | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: or donload the iso file and use unetbootin on windows | 14:19 |
| sipior | obiwan_: or this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=886048. | 14:19 |
| kali1 | i am unable to get resolution greater than 800x600 | 14:19 |
| Kerio | i edited grub 2 with the excellent guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 14:19 |
| Kerio | i also made an entry of the old default linux kernel included in 9.10 | 14:19 |
| kali1 | but in windows it is greater | 14:19 |
| Kerio | i can boot on to that one no problem | 14:19 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, ok, it stops saying Out of memory: kill process 997 (localedef) source 248 or a child. next line is killed process 997(localedef) | 14:19 |
| kali1 | i am new to linux | 14:19 |
| kali1 | what to do? | 14:20 |
| ubuntu | i clicked make usb startup disk? | 14:20 |
| Kerio | so i think i have edited the grub file correctly | 14:20 |
| ubuntu | its trying to make one, but... off the cd thats faulty | 14:20 |
| otak | ubuntu: Just rewrite it. Use System-Administration-USB etc | 14:20 |
| kali1 | anybody knows answer | 14:20 |
| Kerio | kali1: about what= | 14:20 |
| Kerio | what do you wanna do? | 14:20 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, well that's good, and bad I suppose. means the LiveCD's are doing what there supposed too, but ya got a HW issue. | 14:20 |
| kubanc | HW issue, what kind of a sort? | 14:21 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, how much RAM is on the system ? | 14:21 |
| kali1 | Kerio: i want to get higher resolution | 14:21 |
| Kerio | checked drivers? | 14:21 |
| kali1 | Kerio: yes | 14:21 |
| Kerio | any propritary | 14:21 |
| Kerio | ? | 14:21 |
| kali1 | Kerio: no | 14:21 |
| Kerio | what kind of card do u have? | 14:22 |
| zilkomaa | Has anyone idea how to save in firefox about:config settings? | 14:22 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, Hm, a added aditional 128 MB of RAM, but it only says 65 MB. I am already working on it | 14:22 |
| Kerio | gfx card | 14:22 |
| kali1 | Kerio: i have a laptop | 14:22 |
| ubuntu | if the cd is faulty, would the startup disk definetly be faulty as well, also, how does the startup disk work, does it just point the pc to the cd again after or does it download nessisery files to do the installtion? | 14:22 |
| kali1 | Kerio: i am new to linux | 14:22 |
| kali1 | Kerio: sis | 14:22 |
| Kerio | test different resolutions with hz | 14:22 |
| t3hp00ky | Can I change my resolution in tty? | 14:22 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, there's your problem mate. | 14:22 |
| kali1 | Kerio: only 60 hz availale | 14:23 |
| Kerio | mkay | 14:23 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, I need to check, but I think you need at least 128MB of RAM min. but Im not 100% on that. | 14:23 |
| kali1 | Kerio: i do not understand pls | 14:23 |
| otak | ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 14:23 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, it looks like 1 slot on motherboard for RAM module is dead | 14:24 |
| scunizi | kali1: not sure if this will fix or work.. but in synaptic package manager there is an "openchrome" driver for the SiS.. see if it is intalled. | 14:24 |
| jrib | !tty | t3hp00ky, check out uvesafb too, but see | 14:24 |
| ubottu | t3hp00ky, check out uvesafb too, but see: To get to the TTY terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login). To change the resolution for your TTY, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution. | 14:24 |
| KE1HA | Install From a USB and Too a USB are two very diffrent things. | 14:24 |
| nibbler | i have a text (xml) file with an illegal character on position 2234222 - how can i find out which character that is, like vi with :15 jumping to line 15, but for total character count? | 14:24 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, rrr .. well at least we know what the problem is, and now you can work on that part first. | 14:25 |
| jrib | nibbler: try #vim? | 14:25 |
| sakho360 | salut | 14:25 |
| nibbler | mhm k thanks jrib | 14:25 |
| t3hp00ky | whats a good terminal browser? | 14:25 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: i understood all but i still got one question | 14:25 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, i already put 128 MB of ram into the working module, so lets see what is next | 14:25 |
| kali1 | scunizi: i do not find open chrome | 14:25 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, you could try moving the DIMMS to diffrent slots, or reseating the modules, sometimes the channels or module seats aren't the best. | 14:26 |
| nibbler | >.( they need me to have regged ick :( | 14:26 |
| obiwan_ | sipior: if differing time may be up to 2 seconds, why does man rsync recommend to set modify timestamp granularity to 1 sec? it should be 2 to ensure | 14:26 |
| t3hp00ky | I'm kind of stuck in my tty :o | 14:26 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, also check the MB manual to see how it says to configure the RAM on a per slot basis. | 14:26 |
| kali1 | scunizi: yes these are installed | 14:26 |
| scunizi | k | 14:26 |
| kali1 | scunizi: there was a spell mistake | 14:27 |
| scunizi | kali1: xrandr controls resolution | 14:27 |
| scunizi | !xrandr | kalil | 14:27 |
| ubottu | kalil: XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 14:27 |
| kali1 | scunizi: i am new to linux | 14:27 |
| mengu | when i copy paste a theme to /usr/share/themes why it won't show up in the appearance? | 14:27 |
| scunizi | kali1: read the link | 14:27 |
| sipior | obiwan_: perhaps they define resolution so that a two second error means "1 second in either direction". either convention is reasonable, i suppose. | 14:27 |
| gioelez | hi all, which driver should I install for the joypad? (I tried with xserver-xorg-input-joystick and joy2key but joy2kay say: Error opening /dev/js0!) (PS: i need restart X?) thanks all | 14:28 |
| t3hp00ky | Does ubuntu server come with a terminal web browser? | 14:28 |
| Pici | t3hp00ky: Yes, w3m | 14:28 |
| kylehong | hi | 14:28 |
| t3hp00ky | Pici: thanks | 14:28 |
| gioelez | (karmic 64) | 14:28 |
| obiwan_ | oh sipior that's so clever thanks dude | 14:29 |
| scunizi | t3hp00ky: there's others to choose from too.. elink2, lynx, etc | 14:29 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, the MB is very old, it only has 2 slots, so there is nothing to configure here. BUT i can tell you, that it was the problem in RAM. i put it 128 MB and now IT IS WORKING. so KE1HA thank you. i will try to install XUBUNTU, if i will be able to :D | 14:29 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, just checked the Xubuntu site, you need 192MB of RAM. | 14:30 |
| KE1HA | ooops 192MB | 14:30 |
| === joseph is now known as Guest67538 | ||
| Dr_Willis | reccomended. :) | 14:30 |

| Dr_Willis | tiny core linux = 10mb for the base install | 14:30 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, 192 to run from LiveCD, 128 ro run from HD install. | 14:30 |
| KE1HA | .. 128MB to run from HD. | 14:31 |
| kubanc | scunizi, yes, i agree, but i cannot find any tutorial on how to install DSL | 14:31 |

| KE1HA | Yeah, there's smaller but this is Ubuntu. | 14:33 |
| pog | anybody knows whether curlftpfs doesn't allow special chars @$ in the ftp password? (I can log in via mozilla or filezilla). | 14:33 |
| KE1HA | kubanc, there's minimal UB installs as well. ya don't get much by way of functionality on any of them though. | 14:34 |
| saftsack | hey, noload= does not work on my ubuntu 8.10 bootcd. is this a normal behaviour? | 14:34 |
| kubanc | KE1HA, as i expected, the installation got stoped at http://seogadget.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/welcome1.gif | 14:34 |
| KE1HA | You could run the Xubuntu Alternative Install CD, it requires 64MB at install. | 14:35 |
| powergoal | Currently running Gnome as my WM, thinking about giving KDE a try. Do i just get kubuntu-desktop through aptitude? or is there something else I need to do ? | 14:35 |
| pog | by the way I tested xubuntu with 256MB ram under qemu, and it runs rather nicely. | 14:35 |
| scunizi | saftsack: by the time you figure an answer 8.10 will be "end of life".. EoL is coming up soon.. might consider a newer release. | 14:35 |
| iceroot | pog: thats all | 14:35 |
| zinox | there is any howto to help me install this video card >> ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Radeon X300SE] in ubuntu 10.04 ?? | 14:35 |
| iceroot | powergoal: thats all | 14:35 |
| jrib | powergoal: that's it. Then just choose kde at the login screen | 14:35 |
| iceroot | pog: sorry wrong nick | 14:36 |
| powergoal | jrib: iceroot thanks :) | 14:36 |
| saftsack | scunizi, it's just for testing a raid controller. have no blank cd here ;). just want to know if noload works | 14:36 |

| KE1HA | kubanc, and once the server is installed, use the command line apt-get to install whatever else ya need / want, but stay away from Gnome and KDE, you'll crash. | 14:36 |

| h2o0 | I've a Core 2 Duo with 4GB of RAM, which version of Ubuntu can be better? Ubuntu 32-bit, Ubuntu 32-bit with PAE or Ubuntu 64-bit? | 14:37 |
| alaktar | Well I have a pppoe connection, went to the terminal typed sudo pppoeconf, did all the things, password and username...and it keeps disconnecting me from the internet. | 14:37 |
| jrib | h2o0: 64 | 14:37 |
| iceroot | h2o0: amd64 with 4gb ram | 14:37 |
| h2o0 | what about 32-bit with PAE ? | 14:38 |
| jrib | h2o0: why would you? | 14:38 |
| iceroot | h2o0: only 1.8gb ram for a prozess, also there is no PAE by default in ubuntu | 14:38 |
| kubanc | scunizi, from here http://ftp.belnet.be/packages/damnsmalllinux/current/ , i download dsl-4.4.10-syslinux.iso ? | 14:38 |
| KE1HA | h2o0, any would be good, C2D's I think are 64-Bit, but ya need to verify. | 14:38 |
| h2o0 | I've kernel compiled with PAE actually | 14:38 |
| faheem_ | hello my problem is that im using a laptop without an optical drive and my usb refuses to read now.. it has the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/251781 i read this and found a solution but i cant exactly implement it since im a newbie anyone willing to help (PS the soluition seems to be from comment #34) | 14:38 |
| h2o0 | 2.6.31-19-generic-pae | 14:38 |
| jrib | h2o0: you compiled it? | 14:39 |
| scunizi | kubanc: you're on your own here.. I don't run DSL.. it was only a suggestion | 14:39 |
| iceroot | h2o0: pae can only handle 1.8GB ram for a prozess | 14:39 |
| kubanc | scunizi, OK... | 14:39 |
| pog | are known problems with amd64-Shuttles and suspend mode? I installed a ubuntu 9.10 in 32 Bit mode and suspend doesnt work, does nothing. | 14:39 |

| h2o0 | no, I make a new install on 32 bits with 4GB, and ubuntu compiles this kernel with pae | 14:39 |
| faheem_ | hello my problem is that im using a laptop without an optical drive and my usb refuses to read now.. it has the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/251781 i read this and found a solution but i cant exactly implement it since im a newbie anyone willing to help (PS the soluition seems to be from comment #34) | 14:39 |
| t3hp00ky | I'm running Ubuntu server, can I change the tty resolution? | 14:39 |
| iceroot | h2o0: ubuntu is not compiling kernels by his own | 14:40 |
| h2o0 | but I read some problems on 64-bit, less compatibility in programs than 32-bit | 14:40 |
| pog | faheem_: I installed once a xubuntu via quemu and installation disk. | 14:40 |
| pog | or rather the downloaded iso. | 14:40 |
| iceroot | h2o0: only non-open-source programs can be a problem, like flash | 14:40 |
| faheem_ | pog, what does that have to do with my post? | 14:40 |
| sipior | h2o0: try both out, see what works best for you. i imagine you'll be fine with a 32-bit setup. | 14:40 |
| faheem_ | pog, should i use xububtu? | 14:40 |
| iceroot | h2o0: what about trying amd64 with a live-cd and see it by yourselv | 14:40 |
| faheem_ | hello my problem is that im using a laptop without an optical drive and my usb refuses to read now.. it has the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/251781 i read this and found a solution but i cant exactly implement it since im a newbie anyone willing to help (PS the soluition seems to be from comment #34) | 14:41 |
| h2o0 | I tried 64 bit, and I installed flash with little trick, but I don't know If can be a problem with other programs | 14:41 |
| jrib | h2o0: there's really no reason to avoid 64bit anymore... hasn't been for a while | 14:42 |
| KE1HA | t3hp00ky, you can change it in Grub .. vga=792 for example. | 14:42 |
| h2o0 | ok | 14:42 |
| iceroot | h2o0: its working fine for me with java, flash, vbox and other cloused-source stuff | 14:42 |
| pog | faheem_: I thought you might like to boot someting for a optical drive. | 14:42 |
| karlheg | I haven't used 32 bit in years. | 14:42 |
| faheem_ | pog, i want my usb back :(((( | 14:42 |

| semitones | why would you upgrade the kernel though? | 14:55 |
| semitones | i mean, ahead of schedule | 14:55 |
| Dr_Willis | The kernel has updates about every 4 weeks or so it seems. bug fix's and so forth. | 14:55 |
| zinox | i just need press shift key to show boot menu hehe | 14:55 |
| Dr_Willis | but those are minor updates/patches mainly from what ive been seeing | 14:56 |
| joshua__ | can someone help me get my desktop back? | 14:56 |

| KE1HA | rr.. well best practice if you dont want to do normal dist updates, is to custom complie it for your particular machine. | 14:56 |
| Omar87 | Dr_Willis: So, there's currently no issues? | 14:56 |
| zilkomaa | Does anyone have a answer to scratchy audio play in ubuntu 9.10? | 14:57 |

| iceroot | pog: p\@asswor\$ | 15:00 |
| iceroot | pog: i would use | 15:00 |
| pog | iceroot: I try again, may be there was another mistake too. | 15:01 |
| Spanglish_7776 | iceroot - I'm trying to install USBIP on hardy, but am not sure if that qualifies | 15:01 |

| semitones | hmm | 15:04 |
| Dr_Willis | !info usbip hardy | 15:04 |

| KE1HA | TimothyA, use dpkg-reconfigure locales | 15:04 |
| david27 | puta kieres follar | 15:04 |
| Dr_Willis | sounds like a job for the source... | 15:04 |
| TimothyA | KE1HA; i did | 15:04 |
| semitones | hmmmm | 15:04 |
| Spanglish_7776 | yep | 15:04 |

| KE1HA | is this a Virtual Server ? | 15:06 |
| TimothyA | and I don't speak french | 15:06 |

| TimothyA | I told them to install an *english* distro | 15:06 |

| TimothyA | and then they had us wait 2 months | 15:07 |
| TimothyA | no | 15:07 |
| TimothyA | just SSH | 15:07 |
| TimothyA | nothing else | 15:07 |
| FloodBot2 | TimothyA: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:07 |
| KE1HA | rr. that should have changed it. | 15:07 |
| powergoal | I just installed kubuntu-desktop ( i think ) but i think what I have running now is the kubuntu netbook version. Is there a way to tell and how do i get to a normal desktop version? | 15:07 |
| Dr_Willis | LANG=en_US localepurge - dosent go to english eh? | 15:07 |
| pog | there is a parm in curlftpfs user=user:password when debugging in tryes to log in with anonymous... | 15:07 |
| TimothyA | I don't know wether I set the parameters correctly for localepurge...since it's in french | 15:07 |
| TimothyA | you have to select the one you want to keep, right? | 15:08 |
| KE1HA | localepurge is a package that lets you pick what language packages you want. | 15:08 |
| KE1HA | and gets rid of the rest. | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | export LANG=whatever then run the command.. perhaps | 15:08 |
| pog | so I will try with .netrc (after googling what this is for a file). | 15:08 |
| TimothyA | hey, that did work | 15:08 |
| TimothyA | now I wonder why `export` did work and rebooting the machine didn't | 15:09 |
| KE1HA | it's a tty script that you run once, it configures, then any pkg after that , it only installs the ones you want. | 15:09 |
| * TimothyA wonders why his load average is 53.53 | 15:09 | |

I've gotten so far as to identify my needed Windows driver, download it, get NDISwrapper, unpack it, and now I am stumped, thanks to that blasted youtube video. : ) | 15:44 |
| danbhfive | Inquiry: did you run the ndis-something -i /your/windows_xp/driver.inf ? | 15:45 |
| erUSUL | Inquiry: why you need ndiswrapper? | 15:45 |
| KE1HA | Inquiry, use dpkg and install common, then utils and test with ndiswrapper -h os it returns it working. | 15:46 |
| === Myszka is now known as rapcore | ||
| Inquiry | danbhfive: That is certainly on my list of things to do, but I never got that far, because of errors I got while trying to use the "make" command on the extracted NDISwrapper folder. | 15:46 |
| Zober | hi all | 15:46 |
| KE1HA | you dont need to compile it, download the .deb pkg's | 15:47 |
| erUSUL | Inquiry: so no only are you using ndiwrapper you are compiling it from source ??? | 15:47 |

| danbhfive | Inquiry: what others are saying | 15:47 |
| erUSUL | Inquiry: so why you need to "make" it ? | 15:47 |
| KE1HA | this if you have the .INF and .SYS files ya need, ndiswrapper -i and then modprobe ndiswrapper. | 15:47 |

| Gibby | hmmm, I had to install a new driver to make sound work on games for 64bit, and it worked good for a little while | 16:08 |
| kaushal | is there a way to find out how much max ram capacity using dmidecode ? | 16:08 |
| Gibby | Not VM ware | 16:08 |
| kaushal | I am running hardt | 16:08 |
| kaushal | hardy* | 16:08 |
| Gibby | I would like to play some games, however I can't restart since I am downloading a 13G file.... | 16:08 |
| Slart | kreator: and since Karmic uses 2.6.31-19 it sounds like it should be working already.. not sure how to verify that though | 16:09 |
| chetnick | Gibby: you cant resume download? | 16:09 |
| pixellace | I've tried creating a symlink but it places it as a link to a file not as the directory I'm trying for | 16:09 |

| kubanc | anybody know how to mount usb drive in DSL ? | 16:11 |
| joshua__ | Gibby, what is the transfer rate for that? | 16:11 |
| KE1HA | pixellace, hmod g+rw gives a group rad / write permission, just add the users to a group and have the group own the directory. | 16:11 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | kubanc DSL would be the channel to ask that | 16:12 |
| Gibby | hmmm another wierd thing is, after every reboot now, I have to go to system/preferences/sound and unmute the audio, I no longer have a speaker icon on my bar up by the time and date.... | 16:12 |
| kubanc | Jack_Smirnoff, DSL channel is for invite only | 16:12 |
| KE1HA | lets try that again .. chmod g+rw .. and read / write | 16:12 |

| edeca | lungan: Er, dunno off the top of my head. But man mplayer should give you hints | 16:23 |

| live_wire | I cannot even boot in to recovery mode | 16:36 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | live_wire HOW did you change it | 16:36 |
| kreuter | hi #ubuntu. can upstart run a job under a different userid than root? | 16:36 |

| Slart | live_wire: startup-manager? what version of ubuntu are you running? | 16:37 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | tim is the sdb whatever mounted? | 16:37 |
| live_wire | its a fresh install ubuntu 9.10, i downloaded the startup-manager program, changed the resolution, restarted | 16:37 |
| Slart | live_wire: I thought startup-manager only handled grub 1 .. I might be wrong of course.. | 16:38 |
| live_wire | Slart: that might be why I'm having problems then :) I didn't realize it was only for grub1 | 16:39 |
| live_wire | this is my first linux experience, so I'm not real sure what's what right now, but trying to learn | 16:39 |
| lungan | Are there anygood channel for mediaproblems? | 16:39 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | tim type mount in a term to see | 16:39 |
| Slart | live_wire: no wonder you didn't see it.. I can't find any information about it | 16:39 |
| tim | Sorry Jack, owner for sdb1 is tim. Ownership of the others is root. | 16:39 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | tim so you want to change the ownership of the oddball to match the working one right | 16:40 |

| edeca | You can't own special devices in /dev like that | 17:03 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | tim in my example I also showed where I changed username to my own nick, you wanted that to match the other partition which was root:root right | 17:03 |
| edeca | Trinity33: Install libglu-dev | 17:03 |
| Marcuus | Jack_Smirnoff: Checking if /boot/grub/stage1 exists... no | 17:03 |

| kaizn | Hello nice people. I'm trying to install apache2 with vhost_alias mod working together with dnsmasq, for my local development platform. The intension is to only have to create a new folder "site.dev" and use that as the url in my browser to access the server. I followed this guide (http://www.bukisa.com/articles/196445_how-to-set-up-a-local-development-environment-in-ubuntu), but it doesn't seem to work. Help anyone? | 17:25 |
| edeca | lungan: File extensions aren't an indication of content ;) | 17:25 |
| gerry__ | dury: good | 17:25 |
| edeca | kaizn: Which bit doesn't work? | 17:25 |
| oxymoron | What does this mean, and my unlucky day as usual as i recently updated mysql packages, silly me: "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'" | 17:25 |
| kaizn | edeca, dnsmasq doesn't send me to localhost | 17:26 |
| tim | It worked! /media/sdb1 now matches othe other folders with root as the owner. My next problem is with sharing folder "f", located on drive F. Do I need to refresh anything else? The shared folder f is now owned by root and cannot be accessed. The other shared folders on Drive H are owned by tim and they are working fine. | 17:26 |
| edeca | kaizn: You edited /etc/hosts and added the "fake" names on the dnsmasq host? | 17:26 |
| edeca | kaizn: Then reloaded dnsmasq? | 17:26 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | tim do the same thing you just did for the partition, but do it on the folder and make it tim:tim | 17:26 |
| kaizn | edeca, fake names? The point of that guide was to not have to edit the host file. I only did what i was asked to. | 17:27 |
| natrixnatrix89 | If I have no gui. How do i connect to wireless networks? I dont really understand how to use iwconfig for that. I tried sudo iwconfig wlan1 essid "my-essid", but nothing happens. How do I connect to a network using terminal? | 17:27 |
| edeca | kaizn: Ah, OK. Well dnsmasq reads the entries from /etc/hosts and acts as a DNS resolver | 17:27 |
| edeca | kaizn: Or, it can do | 17:27 |
| Trinity33 | hi again im trying to install ati-stream-sdk-v2.0-lnx32 what happen i did tar xvfz and then command make and everything is working fine what should i do next ? after make is this package already installed or should i do something more? make install doesnt work | 17:28 |
| kaizn | edeca, i edited the dnsmasq.conf and added: address=/dev/127.0.0.1, pluss listen-address=127.0.0.1 | 17:28 |
| KE1HA | cchapman, this isn't the exact package we used, but it was very similar: http://www.kace.com/land/1/index.php?land=sw-deployment&ad_group=Software+Deployment&utm_campaign=Software+Distribution&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&keyword=deploy%20software&gclid=CIbKwNCl6J8CFRMXawodVXLIHQ | 17:29 |

| faheem_ | edeca, yeah i did from 8.04 to 8.10 | 17:44 |

| ezrafree | in Software Center the description for Empathy says it supports facebook chat, but now i've installed it and it only offers two kinds of chat protocols to add. any thoughts? | 18:02 |
| dury | Trek: can't see it in bios that drive | 18:02 |
| Trek | then the system isn't detecting it at all | 18:02 |
| Trek | what type of drive, dury? | 18:02 |
| sebsebseb | ezrafree: you need to install plugin | 18:02 |
| dury | sata | 18:02 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | trek be aware he is mixing ide and sata drives | 18:03 |
| sebsebseb | ezrafree: or the Facebook IM for Pidgin | 18:03 |

| candy | Jack_Smirnoff, but it wont open like that | 18:03 |
| dury | I have to disconnect the ide drive then it boots with sata | 18:03 |
| sebsebseb | ezrafree: I think it still uses the Facebook IM plugin, I read before that it will use the Pidgin one | 18:03 |
| Plegee | Ubuntu or fedora? | 18:04 |
| candy | Jack_Smirnoff, i have many files saved in that format which i saved when i worked in win, now i wanna work on it in ubuntu and edit it | 18:04 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | candy I cant help with a file type I have not used. If you cant open it in the program that wrote it in a windows machine then you have other problems | 18:04 |

| Jack_Smirnoff | ezrafree double click it | 18:05 |
| sebsebseb | ezrafree: from the repo? | 18:05 |
| edeca | ezrafree: Using aptitude/apt-get, generally. But you can use dpkg or double click | 18:05 |

| `mOOse` | inkscape's supposed to read/write .cdr formats though | 18:05 |
| Trek | dury, I spoke with one of my tech friends, it SHOULD be able to detect SATA, but you have to change the drive boot orders to boot to SATA first if that's your plan | 18:05 |
| ezrafree | thanks blakkheim, i'll save it and use the command | 18:06 |

| Jack_Smirnoff | edeca there was a good ABS GUide advanced bash scripting.. it was in our repos a long time ago | 18:07 |
| bdheeman | edeca: nope, it is sequence of commands | 18:07 |

| dury | not model | 18:09 |
| sebsebseb | candy: Well there are alternative graphics programs, The GIMP, Inkscape etc, however they aren't that likely to open up a Coral Draw file I expect, since how it's a propritary format, and not that popular. | 18:09 |
| bdheeman | candy: inkscape, dia | 18:09 |
| Trek | dury: in BIOS, under "Boot" (it should be there), does it list "Hard Drive Boot Order" or something similar? | 18:10 |
| candy | sebsebseb, i tried opening with inkspace but i couldnt see the contents | 18:10 |
| candy | bdheeman, what is that dia?? | 18:10 |

| jester5532 | every time im done burning it i can read the program in another computer with mac or windows on it, but when i put it in here it shows up as a blank cd | 18:19 |
| zilkomaa | Jack_Smirnoff: Can i safely remove those packages ? | 18:19 |
| Jack_Smirnoff | jester5532 right click the iso and write to cd | 18:19 |

| jonzbcc | christopherdstam: that's the first thing I checked, but its a pretty heafty file, I don't know what would override it | 19:09 |
| MenZa | jonzbcc: httpd.conf has always been empty on my Apache installs :)= | 19:09 |
| christopherdstam | jonzbcc: yes, debian uses apache2.conf | 19:09 |
| aief | http://worldtv.com/israel_in_eurovision/ | 19:09 |
| jonzbcc | MenZa: thanks (I only ask, because I have a httpd.conf and an httpd.conf.orig , which could _only_ mean that at one time it actually had content, that I felt was necessary to backup) | 19:10 |
| christopherdstam | jobzbcc: so put that option in there, in addition to the htaccess | 19:10 |
| zilkomaa | Is it true that there is no need for swap if system has 2gb of memory? | 19:10 |
| nashequilibrium | ok | 19:10 |
| jonzbcc | christopherdstam: lol, I did that too (its in my apache2.conf and my .htaccess) | 19:10 |
| inkjetunit | zilkomaa: i'd recommend swap for that amount of ram | 19:10 |
| Homely_Girl | Trek: Don't think that did anything.....I ran it b4 I disconnected 'n got an error trying it after disconnection 'n then had to delete 'n reinstall the connection in VPN to connect again. | 19:10 |
| jrib | zilkomaa: no, that depends on what you do with your computer and whether or not you want to hibernate | 19:10 |
| inkjetunit | zilkomaa: atleast on desktop use | 19:10 |
| Der | iter, are you still there, as i told you i have encrypted home dirs, they must be mounted first, and they dont auto mount anymore, another problem =[ | 19:10 |
| iter | zilkomaa: it's unlikely that it will be used but you do require a swap partition | 19:11 |
| jonzbcc | christopherdstam: to be clear, its actually the last directive in the file, so I'm assuming the config file gets read top-down | 19:11 |
| MenZa | jonzbcc: Ah :) | 19:11 |
| Homely_Girl | Trek: I don't wanna go Windoze, but am so frustrated! :( | 19:11 |
| capron | zilkomaa, No a swap is kind of allways recommended , But not if you have a SDD | 19:11 |
| Trek | interesting, Homely_Girl. i'm not sure why it would be doing that | 19:11 |
| christopherdstam | jonzbcc: check this: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#options and make sure that ur not using any options that would override it | 19:11 |

| jonzbcc | christopherdstam: thanks, I'm reading it now. | 19:12 |
| iter | zilkomaa: no that is fine | 19:12 |
| jalons | zilkomaa: not bad at all depending on your usage | 19:12 |
| MenZa | jonzbcc: Well, it stashes everything in apache2.conf iirc, so why the files are even included is beyond me. | 19:12 |
| ccraze | iter: Thanks for your help earlier. I'm going to use a cable to enter diagnostics mode on the drive and give it a different model number.

| ccraze | iter: Yeah, for sure. Thanks again for your help. | 19:14 |

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 19:36 |
| jrib | ActionParsnip: what you described is right, what I said is just a consequence of what you said. -s has its uses, but usually if someone wants something they want to behave like a "root prompt" -i is a better idea | 19:36 |
| ActionParsnip | arand: then tell apt-get to only download the packages, you can then use dpkg to install individually | 19:37 |

| anarkissed | lshw in 9.10 sees my wireless adapter as "UNCLAIMED" anyone had this issue? | 19:39 |
| ActionParsnip | trek: in /etc i wouldnt go playing with it as you may lose sudo ability in the installed system and need to use live cd to roll back. make a backup copy of the current one | 19:40 |
| ActionParsnip | anarkissed: websearch for the product line in: sudo lshw -C network | 19:40 |
| ActionParsnip | anarkissed: you will find guides | 19:40 |
| JoshuaL | how can i make it so that grub starts ubuntu automaticly without waiting x seconds? | 19:41 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip: I've got working backups of the sudoers file, i'm messing with only one line: adding insult capabilities and making it ask for the pasword every time | 19:41 |
| ActionParsnip | trek: haha nice | 19:41 |
| arand | JoshuaL: edit /etc/default/grub | 19:41 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip and jrib: I found my old threads pertaining to this on ubuntuforums.org, i'll figure it out now | 19:41 |
| Trek | :) | 19:41 |
| anarkissed | realtek8191se | 19:41 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip: the sudoers file is the same on all 3 of my computers :P | 19:41 |
| Esteban | hola | 19:41 |
| ActionParsnip | joshua: look in what arand said. you will need to run: sudo update-grub after | 19:41 |
| Esteban | buenas tardes | 19:42 |
| ActionParsnip | anarkissed: there you go, thats the wifi chip. | 19:42 |

| ActionParsnip | !lucid | pirate_hunter | 19:42 |

| lungan | brontosaurusrex, I have downloaded avidemux, but I don't know which formats i should choose when changing he file to .mp4, I've heard something that theres the audio I need to change | 19:43 |
| anarkissed | ive tried compiling the drivers for it, ndiswrapper and other compatible drivers.....does unclaimed mean its disabled? | 19:43 |
| lungan | Having some trouble with .mkv and .m2ts files, since my tv just takes .mp4 files, how do I fix that problem? | 19:43 |
| Lint01 | if I tell the installer that I want root user, can I later change it to use sudo, or I must reinstall the system? | 19:43 |
| ActionParsnip | anarkissed: try: sudo iwlist scan | 19:43 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ActionParsnip, just came from work watching the stream http://www.ustream.tv/channel/at-home-with-jono-bacon however would like to get involved in the chat, can i do it from here? | 19:43 |
| ActionParsnip | !noroot | lint01 | 19:43 |
| ubottu | lint01: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 19:43 |
| Besogon | lungan: mp4 is shit | 19:44 |
| Lint01 | !root > lint01 | 19:44 |
| ubottu | Lint01, please see my private message | 19:44 |
| ActionParsnip | lint01: you cant tell the installer you want a root account. its simply disabled | 19:44 |
| ActionParsnip | !ohmy | besogon | 19:44 |
| ubottu | besogon: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. | 19:44 |
| Lint01 | ActionParsnip: no, it asks whether I want to enable root account | 19:44 |
| edeca | Lint01: What are you installing, exactly? | 19:45 |
| Besogon | That wasn't rude! | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | lint01: what release | 19:45 |
| edeca | Lint01: No recent ubuntu using the normal installer has asked that, to the best of my knowledge | 19:45 |
| lungan | Besogon, Ok but the TV just take mp4 and avi | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | besogon: bad language isnt tolerated here | 19:45 |
| edeca | Perhaps some of the advanced/expert/alternate installers do | 19:45 |
| Trek | okay, the system won't let me save my changes to sudoers | 19:45 |
| Trek | any help? | 19:45 |
| Lint01 | ActionParsnip: 8.04 with text installer | 19:45 |
| edeca | Trek: Did you use: visudo | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | trek: you need to open it with: gksudo gedit | 19:45 |
| edeca | Trek: That is the correct way to edit your sudoers file. And you will want to sudo it, so you can save | 19:45 |
| edeca | ActionParsnip: It is not safe to edit sudoers/passwd/group directly. visudo/vipw/vigr should be used | 19:46 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip: I used visudo to open it before, but the issue is that it won't let me save regardless | 19:46 |
| edeca | lungan: That's not helpful, because MP4 and AVI are just containers. You need to find out what decoders the TV has | 19:46 |
| edeca | Trek: Did you sudo it? | 19:46 |
| ActionParsnip | lint01: considering ubuntu doesnt support having a root password i dont think you are installing a canonical release personally | 19:46 |
| edeca | Trek: sudo visudo | 19:46 |
| edeca | Trek: You need to be root in order to edit the file :) | 19:46 |
| * edeca spots a catch 22 | 19:47 | |
| lungan | edeca, H264 and AAC seems to work | 19:47 |
| ActionParsnip | edeca: gotcha (dont use it myself but good to know) | 19:47 |
| edeca | lungan: That's useful information. | 19:47 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca: the command I was told to use ont he forums was sudo env VISUAL=gedit visudo | 19:47 |
| edeca | ActionParsnip: I'm sure on a system where there is one admin it is perfectly safe | 19:47 |
| blakkheim | use vi, not gedit | 19:47 |
| edeca | Trek: That's safe :) | 19:47 |
| ActionParsnip | trek: that will run as a user which has no write access | 19:47 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca: so yes, it runs, and I"m the only admin on the system (its my netbook, for crying out loud) | 19:47 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca: should I switch to superuser and do it that way? | 19:48 |
| edeca | Trek: Yes. | 19:48 |
| lungan | edeca, Yeah, but having problems to encode the video to H264 and AAC with container mp4 | 19:48 |
| ActionParsnip | trek: still needs sudo | 19:48 |
| edeca | Trek: For me, the following works (I just tested): $ sudo VISUAL=gedit visudo | 19:48 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca: okay, I've got root access (sudo su) | 19:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | lungan, check out HandBrake | 19:48 |
| edeca | ZykoticK9: Good recommendation :) | 19:48 |
| ActionParsnip | lungan: and winff | 19:48 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca: it only opens up sudoers.tmp, not sudoers | 19:49 |
| blakkheim | ffmpeg | 19:49 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca: still wont let me write | 19:49 |
| blakkheim | Trek: that's for a sanity check, it overwrites the real one if your edit passed | 19:49 |
| edeca | Trek: That's the correct behaviour. What happens when you try and save? | 19:49 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca / blakkheim: "Could not save the file /etc/sudoers. You are trying to save the file on a read-only disk." | 19:50 |
| Trek | and i'm logged in as root | 19:50 |
| edeca | Er, is it mounted read only? | 19:50 |
| blakkheim | Trek: pastebin your /etc/fstab | 19:50 |
| edeca | Trek: The following might help: $ mount -o remount,rw / | 19:50 |
| edeca | Trek: But yes, pastebin your /etc/fstab and the output of `mount` | 19:50 |
| Trek | ActionParsnip / edeca / blakkheim: its the FileSystem drive, its auto-mounted | 19:50 |
| edeca | Weird | 19:51 |
| Mack | can anyone help with installing the ioncube loaders? | 19:51 |
| judget | thanks everyone for the help I was having a brain fart | 19:52 |
| trism | Trek: /etc/sudoers has permissions that make it read-only, it has nothing to do with how the filesystem is mounted (/boot/grub/grub.cfg will give you the same error if you try to edit it directly, without chmod'ing first) | 19:52 |
| edeca | trism: But root ignores those permissions, correct? | 19:53 |
| Trek | edeca / blakkheim: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m714c12da | 19:53 |
| trism | edeca: no, it doesn't | 19:53 |
| Trek | trism: reference the pastebin. how would I write to sudoers then? | 19:53 |
| edeca | trism: No, you're right | 19:53 |
| blakkheim | >remount-ro | 19:53 |
| edeca | Trek: chmod +w /etc/sudoers first | 19:53 |
| blakkheim | Trek: that's why | 19:53 |
| edeca | Ah | 19:53 |
| edeca | Trek: The following might help: $ mount -o remount,rw / | 19:54 |
| edeca | trism: visudo sorts out file permissions for you | 19:54 |
| edeca | trism: My /etc/sudoers is -w for all, but visudo has no issue | 19:54 |
| edeca | The problem is the read-only remount | 19:55 |
| trism | edeca: yes, I have no idea why that isn't working | 19:55 |
| Trek | edeca: chmod +w /etc/sudoers worked, it wasnt working otherwise | 19:55 |
| edeca | You have one weird system :) | 19:56 |

| Mack | does anyone here know how to install the ioncube loaders? | 19:57 |
| erUSUL | cchapman: ask citrix | 19:57 |

| Trek | edeca: did I mention I'm using NetBook Remix at the time? | 19:58 |

| Cod3_Break3r | yes man | 20:04 |
| xTheGoat121x | ActionParsnip, hmmm that doesn't tell me much, cuz I've got a problem with 2.6.5 being incredibly unstable. | 20:04 |
| edeca | JoshuaL: It is probably being set either by Gnome (from the proxy preferences) or your ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile | 20:05 |
| Cod3_Break3r | but in the version 9.04 i dont have problems | 20:05 |
| Flare183 | Cod3_Break3r: btw if you need help with it more let me know. | 20:05 |
| Oins | Yes, not muted and maximum turned on | 20:05 |

| Trek | got another question: the wireless card is being assigned interface name eth0. is there a way to change the interface name that it is assigned? | 20:05 |
| edeca | JoshuaL: Weird. I find that thing buggy. Perhaps like ActionParsnip said, put the unset in your ~/.bashrc as a workaround | 20:06 |
| edeca | vinse: useradd is creating a new user, not adding one | 20:06 |
| edeca | vinse: Er, not modifying one | 20:06 |
| JoshuaL | edeca, ActionParsnip; ill do that. is it a bug then or? | 20:06 |

| sander_ | any1 succesfully changed the "default" adito theme ? :) | 20:38 |
| shubbar | Cr33pz0r, what do you mean by "messed up"? | 20:38 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: There is no easy way to do that | 20:38 |
| Cr33pz0r | how do i fix/workaround it | 20:38 |
| cmp | i would be so much appreciative if you dont try to help me Ikonia... really i dont want it from your side | 20:38 |

| ikonia | juancarlospaco: you can't do it like that, you'd have to limit by something such as mac address, or limit it at the dhcp server to stop non-ubuntu machines getting an IP | 20:38 |
| dfgh | erUSUL: OK, thanks. i'll look into envyng. but first, which driver in atis site? im following the download wizard on amd.com which is a dead end because the 5000 series isn't supported. | 20:38 |
| Spanglish_7776 | beat me to it | 20:38 |

| Spanglish_7776 | 1 > sorry | 20:38 |
| da | I'm using Ubuntu8.04 LTS for OS, but it wont play movies, need help | 20:38 |
| ikonia | cmp: you're going to have to learn the basics sooner or later, you can't keep asking in the channel for people to do it for you | 20:38 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: 802.1d might help ,but not much | 20:38 |
| Cr33pz0r | ikonia: how do i fix/workaround it | 20:39 |
| blakkheim | da: aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 20:39 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: And 802.1d isn't easy to setup | 20:39 |

| erUSUL | dfgh: it was a guess on my part. i thought that last catalys would support latest cards ... | 20:39 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: is it an ati card ? | 20:39 |
| Cr33pz0r | yes | 20:39 |
| juancarlospaco | edeca: im CCNA, i think i can do it | 20:39 |
| juancarlospaco | :) | 20:39 |
| dfgh | erUSUL: alright, thanks | 20:39 |
| juancarlospaco | lol | 20:39 |
| da | okay, thank you | 20:39 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: If you're a CCNA, you should know how to use google. | 20:39 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: frustrating, there isn't really a fix apart from use "fail safe" video mode when you boot | 20:39 |
| juancarlospaco | edeca: yes | 20:39 |
| blakkheim | edeca: nice | 20:39 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: I know that's not the solution you're looking for, but if you install ubuntu it should be fixable, just not on the livecd | 20:39 |
| Cr33pz0r | well can't get it installed without it lol | 20:40 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: ahh, that we can fix, use the alternative install CD | 20:40 |
| cmp | iam learing the way how i learn - and thanks for your advise and i will be so much appreciative again if you stop communicating with me and find some one else to enjoy the pressing down... now there is person who is teaching me the way which fits me - i dont learn by books. i learn by doing | 20:40 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: that's a curses based intaller so should work fine | 20:40 |
| juancarlospaco | edeca: but is not suggested to say "go and search google" on support chat, lol, i mean i looking for experiences by other users | 20:40 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: Essentially, there is no portion in a wireless handshake that tells the router/base station what OS it is. The only potential way is something higher level like 802.1d, but even then it's not going to be possible to restrict it to a specific OS | 20:40 |
| ikonia | cmp: the channel can't keep telling you what to do | 20:40 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: Much less one distribution of an OS (e.g. Ubuntu/Debian/whatever) | 20:40 |
| ikonia | cmp: at some point you can use the help.ubuntu.com page to "do" | 20:41 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: Ubuntu doesn't have different networking or drivers to Debian/Gentoo/Slackware/whatever, so there is no way to differentiate | 20:41 |
| ikonia | cmp: you don't have to just read it, you can "do it" too | 20:41 |
| juancarlospaco | edeca: maybe no distro but kernel linux | 20:41 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: you can't do it like that | 20:41 |
| === sale_ is now known as sale | ||
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: the best option would be to set the dhcp server to identify the client and not offer ip's to non-identified clients | 20:41 |
| juancarlospaco | edeca: plan: apt-mirror on the ubuntu wifi, Wsus on the windows wifi | 20:41 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: 802.1d is as close as you will get to ethernet/wireless security. And it's a pain. | 20:41 |
| socram | i've to kill pulseaudio whenever an app wants to use it, ie: fresh start: using vlc (ok sound), close vlc, open rythmbox (no sound) unless i kill pulseaudio. wtf? | 20:42 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: they will bond with the wireless access point, but not gain access to the network | 20:42 |
| Cr33pz0r | ikonia: If i install with the alternate cd, can i install it on external without modifying my PC's HDD's? | 20:42 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: sure | 20:42 |
| Dj_FlyBy | anyone using UNR9.04 on an Acer Aspire ONE that is having issues with the battery (Says it has 2.5 hours left after full charge but only lasting like 40minutes tops)? | 20:42 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: That's not an issue, surely? You push DNS records to windows hosts and group policy for the wsus (off-topic) and set your linux hosts to a specific mirror | 20:42 |
| andruk | the recent kernel updates seem to have made my laptop unable to suspend correctly. it worked before - how do i get suspend working correctly again? | 20:42 |
| cmp | ikonia, if the channel complains to you - then you have right to talk about them ... now please leave me to learn by my way | 20:42 |
| Diverdude | is there a tool integrated in ubuntu to calculate and compare checksums for files? | 20:42 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: What I do on my network is "spoof" gb.archive.ubuntu.com to internal-mirror.lan | 20:42 |
| juancarlospaco | ikonia: i have experience on eth bond | 20:42 |
| server_side | does ubuntu support logitech webcams? | 20:43 |
| edeca | juancarlospaco: That way, when a laptop is inside the network it pulls from the local mirror. When it is outside, it gets updates as normal | 20:43 |
| Cr33pz0r | ikonia: So if i install and choose extranl hdd, my bootfile won't be affcted of the internal hd? | 20:43 |
| juancarlospaco | yes i know, but i want 2 different wifi | 20:43 |
| edeca | server_side: Some, yes | 20:43 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: I never said anything about eth bond ?? | 20:43 |
| server_side | edeca, any specific models, or will any be ok? | 20:43 |
| juancarlospaco | ikonia: i know | 20:43 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: not if you install the boot loader on the external hard drive | 20:43 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: so why make a pointless comment / | 20:43 |
| edeca | server_side: Google it :) | 20:43 |
| Cr33pz0r | ikonia: How would I do that? | 20:43 |
| server_side | edeca, have done no joy | 20:43 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: either way, this isn't anything to do with ubuntu any more | 20:43 |
| juancarlospaco | but you cant run wsus-like service on linux withtout virtual | 20:44 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: when you're installing it will ask you where you want to install the boot loader | 20:44 |
| juancarlospaco | not nicely | 20:44 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: of course you can | 20:44 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: of course you can | 20:44 |
| juancarlospaco | wsus runs on ubuntu? | 20:44 |
| edeca | WSUS is possible with samba. But icky. | 20:44 |
| ikonia | juancarlospaco: no, | 20:44 |
| juancarlospaco | apt-get install wsus xD | 20:44 |
| edeca | And that's not an ubuntu issue. | 20:44 |
| Cr33pz0r | ikonia: How can i found out what to enter as HD? | 20:44 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: during the installer it will identify your hard disks, make a note of them | 20:45 |
| juancarlospaco | thats right | 20:45 |
| juancarlospaco | anyways need 2 different wifi | 20:45 |

| sebastian | hello | 21:03 |
| edeca | mcurran: It depends how you do it. Generally a separate IP | 21:03 |
| Trek | edeca, thanks | 21:03 |
| sebastian | what is newest kernel ? | 21:03 |
| edeca | mcurran: If you only have one IP and a clever router/gateway, you can map the ports required to the internal DMZ IP | 21:03 |
| Cr33pz0r | Swap should that be logical or primary? | 21:04 |
| ikonia | Cr33pz0r: doesn't matter | 21:04 |
| erUSUL | Cr33pz0r: does not matter | 21:04 |
| blakkheim | sebastian: www.kernel.org | 21:04 |
| edeca | Cr33pz0r: No matter. But really, swap? :) | 21:04 |
| chai_ | ok well the reason i got into all this libasound trouble (now fixed) is because i upgraded my kernel and the sound stopped working. In gnome-volume-control I have a "dummy output" and no hardware devices | 21:04 |
| * edeca doesn't often build boxes with swap any more | 21:04 | |
| sebastian | should I download newest or older will be better ? | 21:04 |

| erUSUL | sebastian: use the one that comes with the version of ubuntu you are running | 21:05 |
| sebastian | ok | 21:05 |
| mcurran | So it doesn't have to be static, it can be a dhcp ip? Well I'm trying to figure out what the ip would be to connect remotely, so I would need to know if the public-ip redirects to the DMZ once it's setup | 21:05 |
| erUSUL | sebastian: just make sure you have linux-image installed | 21:05 |
| Trek | ikonia / edeca: if something recommends to install dhcp3-server, should I do it, or just leave it be? | 21:05 |
| luisito | hello | 21:05 |
| edeca | mcurran: Simply give the DMZ host a separate IP | 21:05 |
| edeca | Trek: What are you trying to do? | 21:05 |
| edeca | mcurran: Then map the ports across | 21:06 |
| Trek | ikonia / edeca: its not a prereq, was just wondering | 21:06 |
| ikonia | Trek: depends if you want a dhcp server on your machine | 21:06 |

| datta | ikonia sorry i do not have the slightest clue | 21:20 |
| ikonia | Trek: the ammount of times sudo prompts you would be a pam option.....I think, I've never set that | 21:21 |
| ikonia | datta: lspci should give you a solid clue | 21:21 |
| cmp | jef91, i saved it really on the desktop ... i even see it now | 21:21 |
| jef91 | cmp Its getting annoying to say the least. What is the file name? | 21:21 |
| chai_ | Trek, you can "sudo su" if you know what you're doing and are careful | 21:21 |
| ikonia | cmp: please don't recommend that | 21:21 |
| galym | can anyone give me the name of programmers' room | 21:21 |
| ikonia | Trek: please don't run that command | 21:21 |
| mcurran | to do that would you use: chown -R <username> <folder or file> | 21:21 |
| ikonia | galym: look in freenode.net or in #freenode for channel help | 21:21 |
| chai_ | ikonia, you meant to say that to me or cmp? | 21:22 |
| erUSUL | fieldse: ok; #bash shaked out the details is --> i=1 ; for f in *; do mv "$f" "$i"; ((i++)); done | 21:22 |
| mcurran | what is the own number for root | 21:22 |
| Trek | chai_ i'm a server admin so I'm familiar with being safe with superuser | 21:22 |
| ikonia | chai_: you | 21:22 |
| ikonia | cmp: sorry - didn't mean for you to "not" run that command | 21:22 |
| ikonia | Trek: I find that hard to believe or you wouldn't be asking how to set permissions on a home directory or what a dhcp server does | 21:22 |
| mcurran | no i was wondering if that command was right | 21:22 |
| Trek | ikonia: i'm not running CLI right this second | 21:22 |

| cmp | jef91, the file name is ( unsaved document 1 ) | 21:23 |
| datta | ikonia here is the list http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d73bbb18d | 21:23 |
| jef91 | johnzorn just look for the netbook launcher package | 21:23 |
| ikonia | Trek: cli means nothing to permissions or dchp servers | 21:23 |
| Trek | ikonia: lol, i realize that, but remember: this issue NEVER occured before with ANY Ubuntu install I have done | 21:23 |
| ikonia | datta: it's possible the intel card is not using the correct xorg driver, | 21:23 |
| jef91 | cmp - save the file as "flashinstall.sh" | 21:23 |
| johnzorn | ok thanks jef91 | 21:23 |
| jef91 | cmp as I said the first time /sigh | 21:23 |
| cmp | ok jef91 | 21:24 |
| fieldse | erUSUL, cool - now I save this to a bash script, #! /bin/bash and then how do I call it when I am in the directory? | 21:24 |
| ikonia | Trek: that doesn't change your in ability to set file permissions or know what a dhcp server is, which is core basic admin tasks | 21:24 |
| ikonia | cmp: honestly https://help.ubuntu.com it will make working with people like jef91 easier and less frustrating for them | 21:24 |
| Trek | ikonia: lol, i guess you're right, I admin my own personal server that doesn't assign DCHP or anything | 21:24 |
| datta | ikonia: maybe | 21:24 |
| Trek | ikonia: it holds my data, thats all I need to know :P | 21:24 |
| ikonia | Trek: ok - so not a server admin then | 21:24 |
| Trek | ikonia: not PUBLIC server admin, no | 21:25 |
| ikonia | Trek: so first thing, make sure your home dir permissions are set right | 21:25 |
| ikonia | Trek: that will be the core of it (I'll bet) | 21:25 |
| erUSUL | fieldse: no that works in the command line | 21:25 |
| jef91 | cmp run the script from terminal: cd ~/Desktop && sudo ./flashinstall.sh | 21:25 |
| erUSUL | fieldse: just cd to the directory and run « i=1 ; for f in *; do mv "$f" "$i" ; ((i++)) ; done » | 21:26 |

| gavintlgold | hello, I recently did a clean windows 7 install (as an upgrade from XP) and then went back and installed a new Ubuntu over it.

Now grub is stuck in a rebooting loop. it gets to "Loading GRUB..." and then instantly reboots (before the options show up) | 21:34 |
| cmp | at least you reached the end with me jef91 till the laaaaast step - some others really dont | 21:34 |
| jef91 | cmp - you really should go read some bash basics though | 21:34 |

| gavintlgold | SpaceGhostC2C, I recently did a clean windows 7 install (as an upgrade from XP) and then went back and installed a new Ubuntu over it. Everything went fine until I booted back into windows, windows did a file system check, I used windows a bit, then restarted. Now grub is stuck in a rebooting loop. it gets to "Loading GRUB..." and then instantly reboots (before the options show up) | 21:41 |

| Medo42 | I'm a little concerned that the address might be harvested from the keyserver by spammers, so I'd prefer not to publish it. | 22:44 |

| blakkheim | SpaceGhostC2C: it offended you that much huh? | 22:48 |
| _chump0 | Diverdude you could write a bash script to do the comparison http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html#ss11.1 | 22:49 |
| Diverdude | SpaceGhostC2C, Comparison suggestion from that page: "An easy way to do this is to open the UbuntuHashes page in your browser, then copy the hash your machine calculated from the terminal into the "Find" box in your browser" | 22:49 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | blakkheim, it was very offensive, yes. This is a support channel. | 22:49 |

| Geoffrey2 | ok, got it..it was the mozilla folder in /lib, not firefox | 22:50 |
| Diverdude | SpaceGhostC2C, that is a good idea | 22:50 |
| Slart | Diverdude: why not try diff? | 22:50 |
| Slart | Diverdude: there are other utilities for checking if files match each other.. fdupe is one, there are others out there as well | 22:50 |

| archboxman | kebomix: what you mean can't login???? Do you mean the graphics card is not supported so login fails? | 22:59 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | wasutton3_, it'd be the same as any other cd you want to make an image of. | 22:59 |
| kebomix | Slart: they said that the new kernel includes a new driver for ati cards and ati users will not face any problems after updating to latest kernel , i updated and got sweet kernel panic :@ , i said may be there is a conflict between ati offical driver and new one so i removed ati driver but still no luck , i can't log into my system from any kernel (old one's too ) | 23:00 |
| Slart | wasutton3_: dd is very simple.. it won't get rid of any copy protection or such.. but afaik it will make perfect copies | 23:00 |
| twoslice | Agent47 a lot of people are having problems with linux drivers with that USB modem | 23:00 |
| wasutton3_ | spaceghostc2c, nope, i tried the dd command and all i got was a 5.6mb file | 23:00 |
| thefronny | I've installed jaunty server and then ubuntu desktop, but told the server not to run X. This is an LTSP server and all the clients run X apps fine but, with no X running on the server xhost+ commands can't open :0, so an important xmessage script doesn't work. How can I set the server to start X? Is it in init.d or inittab? thax | 23:00 |
| readmanr_ | if i want to post an image in brainstorm do i wrap the url in [img][/img] ?? | 23:01 |
| wasutton3_ | Slart, tried it, it only copies a little bit of the disk | 23:01 |
| harisund | Hey guys quick question - I have Ubuntu 9.10, but I want the gcc compiler suite that was available on 9.04, since what I am programming with is not compatible with gcc 4.4 that ships with 9.10 <-- Any idea how I can do that? I believe you can install the previous version and change symlinks to point to that, but is there an "official Ubuntu version' or a transitional package or something like that? | 23:01 |
| Slart | kebomix: ouch.. not really sure what to do about that.. you have my sympathy | 23:01 |
| agent47 | twoslice: so what can i suppose to do anyways to troubleshoot | 23:01 |
| twoslice | thfronny you have to install X on the server | 23:01 |
| kebomix | Slart: ok , thanks for trying to help :) | 23:02 |
| Slart | wasutton3_: not reallly sure why it would do that | 23:02 |
| Diverdude | SpaceGhostC2C, aha....i figured out this command: expr 'md5sum svm_classify.c' = 'md5sum svm_classify.c' Itwas something like that i was looking for | 23:02 |
| wasutton3_ | Slart, how would i check for multiple partitions on the disk? | 23:03 |
| Slart | wasutton3_: fdisk? or gparted perhaps? not sure how well those handle cd's though | 23:03 |
| thefronny | twoslice: X is on there (aptitude search xorg) but I'm missing a setting. As I recall when I installed ubuntu desktop it asked me if I wanted it to run on the server and I said "no" (duh). Trying to tell it otherwise. thanks! | 23:03 |
| readmanr_ | check idea http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/23594 | 23:03 |
| twoslice | Thfronny what runlevel is the server in? | 23:03 |
| wasutton3_ | Slart, nope it doesnt recognize either | 23:04 |
| afurlan | asdf | 23:04 |
| Slart | !runlevels | 23:04 |
| ubottu | In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 23:04 |
| harisund | Is there a way to get Firefox 3.5 on Ubuntu 9.04, preserving all the plugins (Flash / Adobe / Java/ media) ? | 23:04 |
| darolu | harisund:just download the binaries from mozilla website | 23:05 |
| darolu | it uses all the plugins you already have | 23:05 |
| Noctis_Lux | Ah ouais... quand ils disent "moins d'options" je pensais pas que c'était au point de connecter à un serveur choisi arbitrairement. | 23:05 |
| thefronny | twoslice: Bingo! That's in inittab isn't it? like maybe 5? | 23:05 |
| afurlan | I'm getting trouble to configure my Ubuntu with 1600x900 resolution | 23:05 |
| twoslice | Thefronny: runlevel 3 | 23:05 |
| darolu | !french | Noctis_Lux | 23:05 |
| ubottu | Noctis_Lux: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr, ou #ubuntu-qc pour les Quebecois | 23:05 |
| harisund | darolu: that only works for me on Windows .. on Ubuntu every time I do something like that, with just about any application, it ALWAYS breaks something unless I install the "official Ubuntu way" through the repositories >< | 23:05 |
| archboxman | darolu: 3.5 or 3.6 for firefox | 23:05 |
| afurlan | does anyone know how can I configure xorg.conf t do it? | 23:05 |
| twoslice | Thefronny: runlevel or 2 | 23:06 |
| Ratchii | Hey guys, I am trying to setup a machine to be a router. It's currently running DHCP and DNS, which are working fine. I have followed the guide http://ubuntulinuxhowto.blogspot.com/2006/06/setup-your-computer-to-be-router.html. I have enabled ipv4 forwarded and rebooted. The ubuntu server can surf fine. The server has 2 NICs in it, eth0 and eth1, they are internet and external. When I plug... | 23:06 |
| Ratchii | ...in a machine into eth1, I get a IP handed out by DHCP, if I ping the hostname resolves but times out. I can't surf, but the gateway responds to ping. | 23:06 |
| darolu | archboxman:both | 23:06 |
| archboxman | apt-cache search firefox | 23:06 |
| darolu | harisund:You can't break anything by running the binnary, but if you want a ore "ubuntu" way, you can add the ppa; gimme a minute and I'll link you | 23:07 |
| archboxman | darolu: what version does it pull up?? | 23:07 |
| Ratchii | There is also iptable logs showing that it's rejecting packets, even though I have allowed the interfaces through webmin's iptables. | 23:07 |
| thefronny | twoslice: I'll check that out. I think it was 5 in my Slackware days and now I'm coming from BSD. Too much to know... | 23:07 |
| archboxman | darolu: if not in your mirror list going to have to change repository server | 23:08 |

| freaky[t] | how do i scroll to the bottom of a file with vim? | 23:09 |
| darolu | archboxman:you can get the 3.5 from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html | 23:09 |
| harisund | darolu I just messaged ubottu .. there are instructions in there to get 3.5 in Jaunty :) | 23:10 |
| Noctis_Lux | Bye and sorry for disturbing ^^ (too tired to force myself to talk in an understandable english). | 23:10 |
| archboxman | darolu: I've got 3.6 ... I use Archlinux rolling release and linux mint :) | 23:10 |
| Slart | freaky[t]: this looks useful http://www.pixelbeat.org/vim.tips.html | 23:11 |
| freaky[t] | Slart thanks i found out myself ;D | 23:11 |
| harisund | Anybody has any experience installing Ubuntu on a FakeRaid Raid0 setup? Fedora installation sees my 2 hard disks as one big hard disk with combined space, ubuntu sees the two hard disks separately >< | 23:11 |
| jereme | is notify-osd still completely non-configurable? | 23:12 |
| Slart | !fakeraid | harisund | 23:12 |
| ubottu | harisund: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 23:12 |
| harisund | Slart that really doesn't help .. I have already seen all that and noone of them cover Raid0 | 23:12 |
| Slart | harisund: usually fakeraid isn't recommended.. it's not much faster and more prone to errors.. | 23:12 |
| jereme | !notify-osd | 23:12 |
| harisund | Slart: I see.. hmm | 23:12 |
| Slart | harisund: but if you really want to do it.. I would have a look at the alternate install.. it has more install options than the regular desktop install | 23:13 |
| harisund | Slart: Ah ok cool man will check it out | 23:13 |
| archboxman | Slart: I want to private msg you trying new feature in irssi... that ok | 23:19 |
| dupondje | I got Karmic with grub1, but after a kernel upgrade, it doesn't seem to run update-grub, any idea how to solve that ? | 23:19 |
| Slart | archboxman: sure | 23:19 |
| archboxman | ok | 23:19 |
| afurlan | does anyone know how to configure the monitor Samsung SyncMaster 2033 on Ubuntu? | 23:19 |
| erUSUL | harisund: is the same for all fakeraids | 23:19 |
| johnzorn | do I use w64codecs for ubuntu 64 bit on an intel 64 bit core2? | 23:20 |
| Slart | johnzorn: yes | 23:20 |
| Goliath | vlc wont show correctly my greek subs (i choose greek/auto encoding) but smplayer will. any ideas? | 23:21 |
| blakkheim | Goliath: use s/mplayer instead? | 23:21 |
| harisund | erUSUL: really? will try that then and let you know thank you !! | 23:21 |
| Goliath | blakkheim: no | 23:21 |
| blakkheim | Goliath: vlc doesn't have the best subtitle support :/ | 23:21 |
| Goliath | maybe i should change font | 23:21 |
| yaaar | howdy | 23:22 |
| blakkheim | Goliath: can i ask why you don't want to just use the program that you already have confirmed to work? | 23:22 |
| oldtopman | hello all | 23:23 |
| oldtopman | bye all | 23:26 |
| readmanr_ | http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/23594/ idea #5 | 23:26 |
| harisund | Honestly blakkheim changing the applicaton all together is not the answer when just one aspect of a particular program is what you want changed :) That's like saying "oh I can't get fakeRaid working by defalt on Ubuntu, I will just switch to Fedora instead :) | 23:26 |
| iWolf | I can't switch workspaces | 23:27 |
| erUSUL | harisund: .... I will just switch to Linux Software RAID instead ... | 23:27 |
| erUSUL | harisund: :) | 23:27 |
| harisund | erUSUL true but that wasn't what I was trying to get at :( | 23:27 |
| Goliath | Does anyone have problem with smplayer? I cant see video for some reason now. | 23:28 |

| oldtopman | hello all | 23:30 |
| oldtopman | I just resized the swap partition that xubuntu uses | 23:31 |
| === mike_d is now known as Guest85759 | ||
| oldtopman | yes i know this is the ubuntu fourums but will i have to tell it to use the resized one | 23:32 |
| Akkernight | is there a linux font called Terminal on Ubuntu? | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | Akkernight: there is Terminus | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | !find terminus | 23:32 |

| Random832 | kthomas_vh_; you're supposed to have it in /etc/hosts - nslookup looks in real name servers | 23:33 |
| === joseph is now known as Guest29945 | ||
| kthomas_vh_ | nslookup is set to query localhost :) | 23:34 |
| kthomas_vh_ | but sec | 23:34 |
| kthomas_vh_ | no, in hosts doesn't matter | 23:35 |
| kthomas_vh_ | the thing is, | 23:35 |
| kthomas_vh_ | I only get NXDOMAIN for domains I define | 23:35 |
| neuro_damage | where would I find a list of mirrors for apt? | 23:35 |
| oldtopman | I just deleted the swap partition that xubuntu uses, then made a larger one. Will i have to tell it to use the resized one? | 23:36 |
| neuro_damage | oldtopman: should be in your /etc/fstab and just a swapon, I believe | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | oldtopman: yes you have to edit fstab and change the old uuid with the new one | 23:37 |
| erUSUL | !uuid | oldtopman | 23:37 |
| ubottu | oldtopman: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 23:37 |
| oldtopman | neur | 23:37 |
| oldtopman | neuro_damage what do you mean (im a newb steps please) | 23:37 |
| neuro_damage | yeah I'm wondering if there's a list of ubuntu karmic repos? | 23:37 |
| darolu | !fstab | 23:38 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 23:38 |
| iWolf | neuro_damage: Why, do you need another? | 23:38 |
| iWolf | neuro_damage: Most software is already in the Ubuntu repo | 23:39 |
| dupondje | damn, upgraded kernel on karmic, and now it boots into busybox :( dmraid gone ?! :( | 23:39 |
| oldtopman | can i edit that from puppy (which i did the repartititioning from) | 23:40 |
| daftykins | dupondje: hold shift on startup and pick your older kernel? | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | oldtopman: you would have to mount the ubuntu partition for that | 23:40 |
| oldtopman | I have done that, whrer is said file | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | oldtopman: ubuntu can boot without swap. so you could do it from ubuntu just as easily | 23:41 |
| erUSUL | oldtopman: /etc/fstab | 23:41 |
| dupondje | daftykins: it removed old kernels, and seems like previous isn't working neither : | 23:41 |
| dupondje | rescuecd++ | 23:41 |
| === atomiku is now known as atomiku|passedou | ||
| darolu | oldtopman: you will need to edit it with sudo, hit Alt+F2 and type gksu gedit /etc/fstab to edit it | 23:42 |
| oldtopman | for my final and simple question, how do i get to the grub boot menu during startup | 23:42 |
| === JediMaster- is now known as JediMaster | ||
| darolu | !grub | 23:44 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 23:44 |
| darolu | !grub2 | 23:44 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:44 |
| oldtopman | escape, f1, q something like that | 23:45 |
| NotBert | Evening, all | 23:45 |
| darolu | oldtopman:in jaunty and previous is with Esc. in karmic I'm not entirely sure but I think you have to hold shift | 23:45 |
| oldtopman | at the moment it says "grub loading" then the rat in *buntu logo | 23:46 |
| oldtopman | i will try that darolu thanks bue | 23:46 |
| oldtopman | bye | 23:46 |
| NotBert | I'm trying to recall the command that allows me to choose to install a lamp server, ubuntu desktop, etc... rather than having to apt-get the individual packages. | 23:46 |
| iWolf | darolu: To get into the GRUB menu, you still use ESC | 23:46 |
| NotBert | whatever it was brings up a blue screen that allows me to arrow down and choose | 23:46 |
| llutz | NotBert: tasksel | 23:47 |
| anarkissed | is there seriously no way to change login sounds? | 23:47 |
| iWolf | I can't switch workspaces | 23:47 |
| NotBert | llutz: Thank you, that was driving me crazy! | 23:47 |
| anarkissed | 9.10 | 23:47 |
| xfact | Flickr uploadr is also giving source to compile, that means it is available for Ubuntu tooo | 23:47 |
| xfact | but how to compile? | 23:48 |
| darolu | iWolf:thanks I'm still on jaunty :P | 23:48 |
| anarkissed | so is there no way to change the login sounds in 9.10? | 23:48 |
| llutz | anarkissed: read comments for sounds http://www.ubuntumini.com/2009/09/hack-karmics-gdm-login-screen.html | 23:49 |
| neuro_damage | I don't see the xen-images for ubuntu in the us.archive repo? | 23:49 |
| tgz_ | yello. I want to rip out pulseaudio, but synaptic wants to remove ubuntu-desktop, probably because it depends on it, and that scares me just a little bit. | 23:49 |
| neuro_damage | is that something I'm missing, cause I'm not sure what package to use for xen on ubuntu | 23:50 |
| llutz | tgz_: ubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package, won't harm too much | 23:50 |
| tgz_ | llutz: ok. so removing pulseaudio which then says it will remove ubuntu-desktop is not going to futz my desktop environment all to whoknowswhere? | 23:51 |
| llutz | tgz_: shouldn't do, just watch carefully which packages are going to be removed | 23:51 |
| tgz_ | if I weren't watching, I wouldn't be here now =] | 23:51 |
| tgz_ | can I reinstall ubuntu-desktop without installing pulse? | 23:52 |
| tgz_ | "It is also used to help ensure proper upgrades, so it is recommended that it not be removed." | 23:53 |
| tgz_ | I do want the machine to be able to update itself, since the computer is going to someone else | 23:53 |
| kinja-sheep | tgz_: The machine won't be update itself unless you introduce some kind of interval tasks (eg cron). | 23:55 |
| tgz_ | kinja-sheep: uh, I'm just talking about the update manager | 23:56 |
| kinja-sheep | tgz_: Okay. You can remove ubuntu-desktop -- It is a metapackage, virtual package that points to multiple packages at once. | 23:56 |
| tgz_ | ok, I'm removing | 23:57 |
| tgz_ | am I going to hate my life when I try to upgrade 9.10 to whatever the next version might bwe | 23:57 |
| dupondje | great, if I offcourse remove dmraid, it wont work anymore :D | 23:57 |
| snail_ | So I'm unable to get a wintv pvr 500 card working, i have tried installing ivtv drivers (i think i did it correctly) the ubuntu help (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaHauppauge) tells me to goto (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_IVTV_Feisty) which is an unsupported version... can anyone point me towards what i should do | 23:58 |
| Karhu | hi everyone..can someone tell me what the avahi client actually is for xmms2 ? i installed it thinking it was a graphical client for xmms2 but now im not too sure lol | 23:59 |
