| mdg | WaterRatj: so its a Pentium 3? | 01:48 |
| WaterRatj | mdg: P4 and no its kinda late | 01:48 |
| mdg | WaterRatj: p4 can boot from USB - you have to choose harddrive and then it is an option under harddrive in your bios | 01:49 |
| adambuntu | m3F, I have a Toshiba Satellite L505 and here is what worked for me: run terminal and type | 01:49 |
| adambuntu | "sudo apt-get install ndisgtk" and after that is done go here and get the win2k driver. | 01:49 |
| adambuntu | Then I just unzipped the driver file into the download file. Then I clicked | 01:49 |
| adambuntu | system-administration-windows wireless driver, and searched for | 01:49 |
| adambuntu | for downloads - rtl8191 (the file that you unzipped)-91_92_SE_Driver-win2k-net8192se.inf | 01:49 |
| adambuntu | and click install and close. Worked for me hope it works for you! I had to use WPA Personal | 01:49 |
| FloodBot1 | adambuntu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:49 |
| WaterRatj | mdg: it has all the options, just doesn't want to load from bios, i don't get it | 01:49 |
| adambuntu | sorry... | 01:49 |
| illyume | I still have the same question though, as I'm sitting here installing it to try it out. What exactly does the Enterprise Cloud Server do? | 01:49 |
| m3F | thank you adambuntu | 01:50 |
| adambuntu | sorry guys | 01:50 |
| adambuntu | should have used pastebin | 01:50 |
| mdg | WaterRatj: i found that i had to use a usb slot on the back of the machine, not the ones that come to the front | 01:50 |
| diablodf | discovering password archive .xls? | 01:50 |
| poyntz | hi. just wondering, once you've pointed menu.lst to the latest image-headers can you delete the old linux-image-header files? | 01:50 |
| WaterRatj | mdg: hmm lol i'll try that :p | 01:50 |
| samm | heyy | 01:50 |

| WaterRatj | no idea lol | 01:52 |

| RainbowEyes | thanks ^^ | 01:52 |
| Amaranth | RainbowEyes: Yeah, I got it too, was just testing it. | 01:52 |
| adambuntu | WaterRatj, im done trying to help you until you can help yourself. we need this kind of info to help you better. there are ways to fix it, but without the information on the machine, we are literally no good to you since you are shooting down all of our ideas | 01:52 |
| WaterRatj | I'll manage on my own, i'm not shooting down on your ideas, you keep giving ideas that don't work, like when i said can't load usb , you guys say install usb | 01:53 |
| mdg | WaterRatj: in a terminal type 'dmesg | less' and you can find out what kind out all kinds of info | 01:54 |
| adambuntu | WaterRatj, without being able to access an external media, there is no way for us to tell you how to fix it. you need to mount an external device or media to fix it. | 01:54 |

| tp43 | I am with AkhlD | 01:57 |
| k0rbis | @thefirstdude You download the Sun Java Plugin | 01:58 |
| malsyned | AkhlD, it may be installed already, but you have to go into System -> Preferences -> Visual Effects -> Normal | 01:58 |
| tp43 | AkhlD, it is already installed, you just gotta turn it on | 01:58 |
| WaterRatj | I'll try a few things and let you all know what works :p or in my case doesn't work :D | 01:58 |
| VTSkeptic | AkhlD: You must enable it | 01:58 |
| AkhlD | how ? | 01:58 |
| adambuntu | WaterRatj, if you get us some more information, we can help. | 01:58 |
| malsyned | AkhlD, by following the instructions I just sent | 01:58 |
| k0rbis | @thefirstdude Just go to Add/Remove Applications and search Java, it will popup in the list, then install it. | 01:58 |
| AkhlD | i just turned on the WATER Effect like stuff | 01:58 |
| WaterRatj | well that command mesg sees not working | 01:58 |
| malsyned | AkhlD, that looks almost like the desktop cube plugin, but curvy. | 01:59 |
| adambuntu | WaterRatj, it could be because of the cdrom live image. | 01:59 |
| AkhlD | malsyned, to Normal ? | 01:59 |
| tp43 | What is that feature that AkhlD pointed to, I wanna try it, is there a howto? | 01:59 |
| WaterRatj | i'll try that using not the front usb ports to try and see if it boots from usb first | 01:59 |
| malsyned | AkhlD, unless it's already on Extra | 01:59 |
| AkhlD | tp43, no idea | 01:59 |

| PlaHPoy | client is asking me to set it up | 02:04 |
| PlaHPoy | but i see no need | 02:04 |
| litATubu | thanks mdg, hotmail also? | 02:04 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, then yes. dependent upon if the application requires 64/32 bit architecture, etc. look at vmware esx for your solution. | 02:05 |
| mdg | litATubu: i dont | 02:05 |
| carlll | ok i dual booted on windows xp how do i set linux as the normal bootup? | 02:05 |
| mdg | litATubu: i don't think it does hotmail, but i could be wrong | 02:05 |
| litATubu | ok, thanks. | 02:05 |
| PlaHPoy | he has on each system a virtual mysql / web / pound | 02:05 |
| mdg | litATubu: your welcome | 02:05 |
| PlaHPoy | 1 instance each | 02:05 |
| PlaHPoy | makes no sense | 02:05 |
| trineox | CCC I would suggest using a live cd of ubuntu then use the usb startup disk creator to put the ubuntu image on it | 02:05 |
| CCC_ | does anyone know how to install xubuntu on an imac with a usb flash drive? i already have it on the usb | 02:06 |
| `mOOse` | alpine too litATubu | 02:06 |
| PlaHPoy | and why virtualize 4 webservers all serving the same content on each box w/replication | 02:06 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, remember, different people look at security differently. think of it on that level | 02:06 |
| PlaHPoy | wouldn't they all be using the same resources | 02:06 |
| carlll | i dual booted on windows xp how do i set linux as the normal bootup? | 02:06 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, no. | 02:06 |
| PlaHPoy | i can understand if there were different clusters or different servers | 02:06 |
| mdg | CCC_: have you checked the ubuntu forums for intel mac's - they may have a sticky with tips | 02:06 |
| IdeAlEss | okay, for whatever reasons cups didn't come up sane with the last reboot. Restarting cups and samba got the printer back. The folders are another issue. I have yet to get them to share correctly. | 02:06 |
| CyberaX2195 | carlll: if normally if u install ubuntu after XP it sets ubuntu as default | 02:07 |
| PlaHPoy | but a server can only serve so fast, why not tweak your httpd daemon and utilize the entire box? | 02:07 |
| CyberaX2195 | unless u somehow changed it | 02:07 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, the resources if done correctly are not shared. like i said, research vmware esx and its adaptability... ive used it to deploy several web servers and there is a reason for it | 02:07 |
| === austin is now known as live_wir | ||
| technicallyrite | carlll: I have good luck with ultimate boot cd, or super grub disk. | 02:07 |
| PlaHPoy | but wouldnt not sharing resources limit the ability of each virtual server | 02:07 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, no. | 02:08 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, vmware assigns a core to each server, same as memory | 02:08 |
| carlll | how do i change my username on ubuntu? | 02:08 |
| jp-- | hi guys. when I boot ubuntu it's black and white even the usplash until it launches the xserver using composite output, any ideas to get it boot it color? | 02:08 |
| PlaHPoy | so your saying it would be faster to serve identical data from 4 virtual instances with 1 core than 1 system with all 4 cores using the same network adapter? | 02:09 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, dependent upon the ability of the server (resources) it could be a great implementation of saving the environment too. some people have crazy reasons, but there are implementations that do require that they be on their own | 02:09 |
| PlaHPoy | he is only using it for lamp | 02:09 |
| adambuntu | PlaHPoy, then thats why | 02:09 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | vinse sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client | 02:17 |
| gdb | I'd encourage you to evaluate openjdk before opting for sun java. There's very very little (something like 3% of some more advanced functions) that's not in openjdk. | 02:17 |

| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, is there any permissions on the external? | 02:18 |
| VTSkeptic | carlll any luck? | 02:19 |
| IdeAlEss | adambuntu, not sure, I just right clicked on the folder I wanted to share and had it do it. It is a fat32 drive so I would think no. | 02:19 |
| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, it should work then | 02:19 |
| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, is it not working? | 02:19 |
| ohmygawd | what do you think the likelihood is that i could wipe this and put ubuntu on it? http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=257308&source=1 | 02:20 |
| IdeAlEss | adambuntu, no, the xp box can't connect | 02:20 |
| VTSkeptic | gbd: I will keep that in mind | 02:20 |
| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, then it has to do with the mounting, and who can mount it | 02:20 |
| vacuoustruth | join #javascript | 02:20 |
| vacuoustruth | sry | 02:21 |
| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, that one is over my head in terms of configuring that. maybe one of the wizards can help with it | 02:21 |
| IdeAlEss | adambuntu, going to it in a terminal shows that it is mounted as my user with 700 on all folders and 751 on files. | 02:21 |
| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, can you \\(file) to it? | 02:22 |

| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, did you explicitly allow the permissions to the everyone group on the drive share? | 02:24 |
| robojake | connections time out for no reason I can't seem to figure it out, I thought it was fixed in the latest kernal but it started up again | 02:25 |
| robojake | I don't even know if I'm connected here lol | 02:25 |
| IdeAlEss | adambuntu, I have tried but they didn't seem to stick. | 02:25 |
| steve_ | Totem Movie Player killed my X, only boots cli, pls help | 02:26 |
| adambuntu | IdeAlEss, yea, now your getting over my head with the config part. it sounds like when its mounted, its not keeping the settings for the drive share or just the drive.. | 02:26 |
| adambuntu | robojake, are you using wep? | 02:27 |
| litorcino | To put gmail working in mutt. any idea? | 02:27 |
| IdeAlEss | adambuntu, yeah it sounds like a permission thing. It is using the auto mount thought so I guess I need to learn a little more about that. | 02:27 |

| `mOOse` | johnzorn, you don't go over the net on a local lan | 02:38 |
| `mOOse` | you use your locally assigned ips | 02:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | WaterRatj, yes. Grub2 or grub legacy? | 02:38 |
| `mOOse` | usually something like 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2 etc | 02:38 |
| `mOOse` | not your internet ip | 02:38 |
| WaterRatj | SpaceGhostC2C: Does't matter, any grub that I can install trought livecd | 02:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | WaterRatj, it does matter, depending on which livecd you use. | 02:39 |

| od3n | just seemed odd the firefox could get out but that was it | 02:59 |
| od3n | so I can install anything | 03:00 |

| ben__ | any ideas, it's a guitar lesson dvd? | 03:01 |

| Fondor1 | The latest kernel update (2.6.27.17.21 ) causes my laptop's fan to be set on full speed constantly. All kernels before that scaled the fan speed according to load. Anyone else see similar issues? I've heard through the grapevine that there are issues with power management in the latest version, likely leading to this fan issue. | 03:12 |
| wterrey | Does anyone know if I can sell new computers with Ubuntu on them legally? | 03:13 |
| robber | I am trying to figure out if it is possible to create a domain/client configuration with all linux except 1 winxp. Is this possible? | 03:14 |
| robber | wterrey: yes you may, you have to let it be known that you are selling the hardware only | 03:14 |
| wterrey | Great. Thank you | 03:14 |
| wterrey | So I can give them a copy of the disk | 03:15 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | robber, I think the way you are wording it doesn't exactly give a clear picture of what you want. | 03:17 |
| robber | like windows where you login into a "domain" your home files are stored on a server, and you print thru a server and no matter which PC you login to you can have access to your files | 03:19 |

| === sivel is now known as aka_sivel | ||
| arand | StuckMojo: depends on which version there is both 32bit and 64bit version of the CD | 03:27 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: different isos | 03:27 |
| === aka_sivel is now known as sivel | ||
| StuckMojo | ah. i just grabbed of the front page | 03:27 |
| StuckMojo | i suspect i got 32bit then | 03:28 |
| wterrey | Can I start Ubuntu without a password? | 03:28 |
| arand | StuckMojo: yes | 03:28 |
| darolu | StuckMojo: ubuntu website gets you 32-bit by default | 03:28 |
| StuckMojo | which is probably best. AFAIR there's still no 64 flash plugin right? | 03:28 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: if you have 64bit system then u want to install that one | 03:28 |
| StuckMojo | mkquist__: i do, but that's been a hassle in the past | 03:28 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: 32bit apps can work with 64 if needed, 64 bit works fine, and flash is no brainer | 03:28 |
| robber | SpaceGhostC2C: Thanks, I will look into this. I appreciate the help | 03:28 |
| StuckMojo | i've only got 4G ram so i think 32bit will be fine and less problematic... | 03:28 |
| StuckMojo | mkquist__: really... | 03:29 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: been running it for since 9.04 and i like | 03:29 |
| StuckMojo | mkquist__: are there 64bit nvidia drivers? (the binary ones i mean) | 03:29 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: 64 bit | 03:29 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | robber, feel free to ask more. You can also do Samba, but that isn't as good IMO | 03:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | StuckMojo, nvidia runs fine on 64bit | 03:29 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: you just enable restricted and it goes | 03:29 |
| arand | StuckMojo: if you want the extra 800mb memory you could install the pae kernel | 03:29 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: 64bit is faster to do things like encode, noticeably | 03:30 |
| StuckMojo | hmmm | 03:30 |
| wterrey | Does anyone know if I can start Ubuntu without a password? | 03:30 |
| StuckMojo | crap, i already downloaded and burned the 32bit, heh | 03:30 |

| adambuntu | hey is there any way I can automate grub to auto load the latest kernel? | 03:31 |
| StuckMojo | i know, i'll just make a relatively small root partition, so i can install 64bit also | 03:31 |
| StuckMojo | that way i can also do lvm | 03:31 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: i like the reason, if nothing else - more users mean 64bit get more attention | 03:31 |
| arand | adambuntu: "autoload" as in? | 03:32 |
| wbmj | adambuntu: grub defaults to newest installed kernel | 03:32 |
| Mimi | Netflix. I've been reading and tyring stuff I found online. Nothing seems to work even with wine. (dont have VM bc dont own windows key) anyone GOT netflix working in ubuntu? | 03:32 |
| StuckMojo | how big is the desktop install these days? | 03:32 |
| StuckMojo | 10G? 15? | 03:32 |
| mkquist__ | StuckMojo: really works fine though... desktop machine runs great with 64bit, no problems at all | 03:32 |
| adambuntu | arand, when i boot, i get the list of possible kernels to boot from. i only want the latest one. how do i make it choose that one by default without having to hit enter to get it started? | 03:32 |

| StuckMojo | mkquist__: yeah i'm gonna give it a shot | 03:33 |

| manuel_ | hello.. i'm having problems to see youtube's videos.. i,ve installed java and flash player but still doesn't wor!! what am i doing wrong? | 03:33 |
| arand | adambuntu: the only convenient way to do that is to uninstall the old kernels (since grub2 has no "howmany" option..) | 03:33 |
| surge_ | but yeah its copy-protected stream | 03:34 |
| surge_ | so I doubt its easy | 03:34 |
| adambuntu | arand, ok, how do i yank those kernels i am not using? | 03:34 |
| Fondor1 | adambuntu: there is something.... I think it's called boot up manager | 03:34 |

| HTbeeJay | hey guys, anyone here has ubuntu running on lenovos latest t410? | 03:47 |
| arand | lacita: I don't know what you use for accessing the truecrypt partition, but if you can get to it from the liveCD, I don't think a reboot should be necessary.. | 03:48 |
| lacita | HTbeeJay: I did... maybe not the latest, but I had ubuntu on a lenovo y410. Pretty sweet. | 03:48 |

| tetsuo_ | Hello there!. Suddenly Ubuntu is not detecting my mp4 player. Can anybody help? | 03:51 |
| myk_robinson | in Ubuntu Karmic, where is the equivalent of xorg.conf? | 03:51 |
| myk_robinson | i need to try to manually configure some options on my touchpad | 03:51 |
| lacita | arand: Yes, the table is back... Let's do a reboot & see how things worked out.\ | 03:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | myk_robinson, karmic can use an xorg.conf if you create it! | 03:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | myk_robinson, s/can/will | 03:52 |
| lacita | arand: Thanks again. Hopefully, I'll see you in just a bit. | 03:52 |
| myk_robinson | ZykoticK9: I just want to try to disable this two-finger scrolling. To your knowledge, is there already a config file somewhere that is controlling this setting? | 03:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | myk_robinson, oh man i have no idea, good luck | 03:53 |
| myk_robinson | is there a command I can use in console to search the entire hard drive for files containing a certain piece of text? | 03:53 |
| === AKhlD is now known as AkhlD | ||
| knoppies | myk_robinson, someone once gave me a list of commands for searching of various things, if you really want I can go boot up my laptop and try find it for you. | 03:54 |
| Fondor1 | "locate" can find filenames | 03:54 |
| myk_robinson | knoppies: I'll see if I can google it, but I wont stop you :) | 03:54 |
| joebodo | myk_robinson, it's in gconf-editor | 03:54 |
| Fondor1 | myk_robinson: are you looking for something IN the files? | 03:54 |
| joebodo | desktop->gnome->peripherals->touchpad | 03:55 |
| myk_robinson | Fondor1: yes, looking for Option "HorizTwoFingerScroll" "1" | 03:55 |
| dereks | hey guys, i am trying to download and burn the mini.iso (netboot ubuntu) to a usb, and nothing registers it as a valid iso, any ideas why? or is there another way to get this minimal ubuntu? | 03:55 |
| knoppies | myk_robinson, ok, let me fetch the laptop. | 03:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | Fondor1, if myk_robinson is wanting to look inside the files it would require grep - i'm not sure how, and the hd is a big place to try to look inside of everything | 03:55 |
| papsh | dereks, you burned an iso to a usb stick? | 03:55 |
| myk_robinson | ZykoticK9: if it matters, the install is less than 24 hours old | 03:56 |

| myk_robinson | thing is, there is no xorg.conf in Ubuntu anymore | 03:57 |
| papsh | dereks, you used unetbootin? | 03:57 |

| Kismet | hey guys automounting with hard drives doesn't work anymore | 04:01 |
| Kismet | any hint | 04:01 |
| tetsuo_ | Hey. I need some help please :S. My Mp4 is not being detected anymore. Anyone has any ideas? | 04:02 |
| seamarshall | Help! I keep receiving E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) whenever I try to install drupal6 | 04:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, i've certainly experienced some inconsistent automount behaviour with karmic as well. if worst comes to works you can create fstab entries using "noauto" and "user" switches - but it won't show up on you desktop as nicely as the automounter does :( | 04:03 |
| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: does the player work on other computers? Plug it into your linux machine, wait about 60 seconds, then open up a terminal and type dmesg see if the output yields any info as to what happened when plugging inthe deivce | 04:03 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, i don't get it.. i am not that fluently with that stuff | 04:05 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, how to create that enterie | 04:05 |
| seamarshall | can someone help me with the error "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 04:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, sorry -- you can use fstab to mount partitions (like external drives and stuff) but it more a pain! | 04:05 |
| tetsuo_ | myk_robinson thanks for replying!. It works on other computers. It was working yesterday. I don't know if this has anything to do with it but when I go to places -> computer -> it says "Nautilus cannot handle computer locations@. By the way, there's nothing useful that I can spot in dmesg | 04:05 |
| === AkhlD is now known as Googlie | ||
| lcfr666s8n | hello | 04:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, ideally you won't have to use fstab - but i don't have a solution for the automounter sorry | 04:06 |
| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: what was the last thing you did with it on another computer, and was that computer windows based? | 04:06 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, thats all right, i thought i can mount with the mount command | 04:06 |
| myk_robinson | It may have switched USB modes | 04:06 |
| === Googlie is now known as AkhlD | ||
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, this of fstab this way - you put the line you run using mount -- in a file and this file is read each time the computer starts | 04:07 |
| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: does the player have an onboard menu where you can verify the mode is set to MSC and not MTP? | 04:07 |
| RaNdY | Hi, I was updating to bash 4.1 when I've accidentally deleted /bin/bash which was my default. And now I can't login to the system, any ideas on how to enter the system again aside from LiveCD boot;chroot-file? | 04:07 |
| tetsuo_ | myk_robinson: just charged, I didn't move any files or anything. I think something got messed up with my ubuntu. I didn't install or change anything in the past 2 days | 04:07 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, oh i see | 04:08 |
| seamarshall | Please someone help me | 04:08 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, but it won't show in nautilus when i plug it in with usb | 04:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, right! which is a total drag! | 04:09 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: how are you trying to install drupal? | 04:09 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, thats... no good... | 04:09 |
| lcfr666s8n | I have to admit ubuntu (I think I have hardy...) is much nicer than windows but I am getting frustrated over some issues with some games, plugins for firefox, etc... Very confusing for someone who has only used windows for 10 years | 04:09 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, but still thx for explaining | 04:09 |
| myk_robinson | lcfr666s8n: keep in mind that hardy is four revisions old, a LOT has changed since then | 04:10 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson, I originally installed it correctly then botched an update so I uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it and always receive this error now. I tried to purge it also but no luck | 04:10 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson, im sorry that didnt answer your question. I am using sudo apt-get install | 04:10 |
| lcfr666s8n | myk_robinson: is 9.10 better? | 04:10 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: just puzzled about the error, installing drupal should be as simple as untarring the drupal file into a directory | 04:11 |
| myk_robinson | lcfr666s8n: In my opinion, its much better. Newer versions of all software and better hardware support | 04:11 |
| joe75 | lcfr666s8n: in 10yr linux will be a piece of cake :P | 04:11 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: can you walk me through your installation? | 04:11 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson, it also spits this at me. Not replacing deleted config file /etc/dbconfig-common/drupal6.conf | 04:11 |
| arlo | where do i go for graphics questions>? | 04:11 |
| lcfr666s8n | anyone familiar with Ubuntu SE? | 04:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | arlo ask | 04:12 |
| seamarshall | When I uninstalled it I deleted all the files "search" could find named drupal. I then did sudo apt-get remove drupal. the proceeded to do sudo apt-get install drupal6 | 04:12 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: i feel silly, i didnt know that drupal was in the repository | 04:13 |
| arlo | ask nvidia 7900gs+ubunto9? | 04:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | lcfr666s8n, if it's a support issue ask - otherwise ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:13 |
| arand | seamarshall: That's your problem, deleting program files manually --> problem | 04:13 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: try sudo apt-get -f install should fix any possible broken packages. | 04:13 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson: that gives me the same error | 04:14 |
| lcfr666s8n | Does Ubuntu 9 support SE... Also is running vista on one drive and Ubuntu Hardy on another bad. | 04:14 |

| Sir_Fawnpug | tetsuo_, you could probably find that kind of functionality in restricted, though | 04:17 |

| omenmaster | can some help me with create a text file for a folder containing 249 items? | 04:22 |
| st4rscr34m | Does anyone know how to get rid of the icons in front of Applications and Places | 04:22 |
| omenmaster | with the names of the files | 04:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | omenmaster, ls > filename | 04:22 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Agh, ZykoticK9 beat me to it | 04:22 |
| omenmaster | ? | 04:22 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson: I was able to reinstall that, however it did show a lot of errors in the process | 04:23 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | omenmaster, the '>' part of that command basically takes what would be printed on the screen and dumps it into a file | 04:23 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: so, did you just go an delete a bunch of stuff manually, i guess? just asking, trying to figure out what happened | 04:23 |
| Out_Cold | Automatrix, i'd start here: http://www.plus.net/support/broadband/hardware/speedtouch716.shtml | 04:23 |
| Out_Cold | Automatrix, step 6 | 04:23 |
| Automatrix | thanks Out_Cold | 04:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | omenmaster, Sir_Fawnpug the '>' is called a redirect i believe | 04:24 |
| omenmaster | so cd into the folder and do that/ | 04:24 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | ZykoticK9, yep | 04:24 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson: Yes i did. Im guessing that breaks files system files? | 04:24 |
| tetsuo_ | I can't get my usb flash detected, it was working two days ago. Can anybody help me? | 04:24 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | omenmaster, that's probably the simplest way of doing it | 04:24 |
| omenmaster | ok im in the folder right now | 04:25 |
| omenmaster | via terminal | 04:25 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | tetsuo_, so your original method of dealing with it was to use the file browser to copy the files over? | 04:25 |
| k0d3g3ar | tetsuo: Are you absolutely sure that your problems are OS related? I've had lots of USB problems due to lack of power being given to the USB port | 04:25 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: depending on where you deleted from, yes. Anything outside of normally unhidden folders in your home directory should generally not be touched unless you know EXACTLY what your're doing. That's while all that stuff stays hidden and requires root access, its all asafety net | 04:25 |
| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: when its plugged in, does it show in the console when you type lsusb | 04:25 |
| Automatrix | Out_Cold, I did that but PW seems to be hardcoded in the firmware, so no access | 04:26 |
| tetsuo_ | k0d3g3ar: I'm sure. Something stopped working and it's not my mp3 =( | 04:26 |
| Blue1 | !proxy | 04:26 |
| ubottu | Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as !TOR and web (Java, etc) gateways due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 04:26 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson: til someone like me gets carried away :/. I broke 7 previous ubuntu installs messing around like this. | 04:26 |
| tetsuo_ | myk_robinson yes, it's on the list | 04:26 |
| omenmaster | u guys freakin rock.. | 04:26 |
| omenmaster | thank u | 04:26 |
| knoppies | myk_robinson, you still looking for search commands (sorry i left it booting and forgot about the laptop.) | 04:26 |

| Out_Cold | Automatrix, i live in canada but i have never seen a router that can not be reset to default.. | 04:27 |
| k0d3g3ar | tetsuo_: Reason I ask is that I have a laptop here that did something very similar. Found out that it was a flaky power supply to the ports. Changed the device to a differnent port and magically it appeared | 04:27 |
| bombel | After uninstalling a program that has been installed with 'wine', the shortcuts remain in Applications->Other. How do I remove these shortcuts definetly? Where are these files remaining? | 04:27 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson: your blank file trick worked! thanks! but I am receiving a mysql error from drupal. Should I purge then reinstall? | 04:27 |
| myk_robinson | knoppies: i think I found my answer though, I need to create an xorg.conf file and config manually for my touchpad | 04:27 |
| Automatrix | Out_Cold, I've got one ;) so does several thousand people here | 04:27 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: its worth a shot. I run drupal, but on a hosted server. Until today i didnt even know it was in the repo | 04:28 |
| tetsuo_ | k0d3g3ar I wish it were that =( but I tried on different ports and nothing | 04:28 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: it cant get any "broker" | 04:28 |
| knoppies | myk_robinson, ok. the 3 commands I had are: whereis locate find. | 04:28 |
| knoppies | myk_robinson, not sure what they do though. | 04:28 |
| tetsuo_ | it's wierd because it's on the lsusb that myk_robinson said | 04:28 |
| myk_robinson | knoppies: thanks, I'll check man pages on them | 04:28 |
| Out_Cold | Automatrix, well if many people there have them, try looking for a forum or something similar for the ISP. | 04:29 |
| animeloe[net] | hey I'm' having serious issues with xubuntu atm | 04:30 |
| carbm1_ | Anybody know how to cut output from CAT starting with one trigger and ending with another? For example... I'm wanting the grub commands for booting Ubuntu. So I'm typing "grub-mkconfig" but I only want output starting after "### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###" and then start with "menuentry" and end on line "}". Just curious if its possible? | 04:30 |
| Automatrix | the same problem fore everyone, nobody s' got the administrator password | 04:30 |
| Out_Cold | Automatrix, it's near certain someone else has had/fixed that before. | 04:30 |
| animeloe[net] | I did an upgrade and now dbus has taken a big shit | 04:30 |
| knoppies | I don't often have this PC plugged into sound, and I want Pidgin and/or Empathy to 'system beep' whenever I get a message. | 04:30 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Automatrix, animeloe[net], how big of an upgrade? | 04:30 |
| animeloe[net] | it's doing a lot of erroring | 04:30 |
| Out_Cold | Automatrix, i would refuse service if i could not control my own equipment | 04:30 |
| animeloe[net] | couldn't connect to dbus session bus: /bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: No protocol specified#012Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed. | 04:30 |
| animeloe[net] | that's one of the errors I get | 04:30 |
| seamarshall | myk_robinson: thats true. lets hope I dont break all of ubuntu now haha. another quick question was running this command bad "sudo aptitude remove rarian-compat"? | 04:30 |
| Automatrix | Out_Cold, too late now, the did it | 04:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | bombel, use System / Preferences / Main Menu - and uncheck them from Other (my guess is you find the eventually reappear and you'll have to uncheck them again, but then you'll have 2 or more entries - fun stuff) | 04:31 |
| tetsuo_ | myk_robinson: it's on the lsusb that you mentioned, what should I do next? | 04:31 |
| myk_robinson | seamarshall: not sure what that app is... lemme look | 04:31 |
| philosophically | anyone know of the best open source alternative to whm/cpanel? I'm looking at ravencore, dtc... but i really dont know what decision to make... need something that can run drupal which is PHP based... any suggestions? | 04:31 |
| Automatrix | Sir_Fawnpug, did not understand your question | 04:31 |
| animeloe[net] | I did the security updates for 9.10 | 04:31 |
| animeloe[net] | 64bit | 04:31 |
| animeloe[net] | all of them | 04:31 |
| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: you know how to use pastebin? If so, paste a little bit from the end of dmesg | 04:31 |
| animeloe[net] | and now dbus is all screwed up | 04:31 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Automatrix, whoops, addressed that to the wrong person, sorry | 04:31 |
| tetsuo_ | sure, one min | 04:31 |

| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: does it duplicate the same bevahiour after a reboot? DO you have a flash drive or something else you can test? | 04:34 |
| animeloe[net] | and yes it's repeatable after a reboot | 04:34 |
| tetsuo_ | myk_robinson it's working on windows, so I think it's a OS issue | 04:35 |
| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: you may be correct, but can you duplicate the same problem with a flash drive? I as kthis because if a Windows machine has set the player to MTP mode, it will not mount correct in Linux without some changes.. | 04:35 |

| myk_robinson | tetsuo_: what version of Ubuntu are you using? People in that same thread at ubuntuforums say it works outof the box with Karmic | 04:49 |
| Out_Cold | mjs7231, i would say it depends on the dependencies that 1.31 needs | 04:49 |
| tetsuo_ | myk_robinson, ubuntu 9.10, what do you mean of out the box with karmic? | 04:49 |

| spritle | anyone* | 04:51 |
| giiker | Out_Cold: well it depends on what you rootkit install right? like, one that deletes all your MBR or your home partition,etc?! | 04:51 |
| myk_robinson | spritle: try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 04:51 |

| giiker | Out_Cold: I know what you want to do, but if you don't really know what the rootkit does, you might ending up giving up something else! rootkits cam make you believe your firewall is up and running | 04:54 |

| ajay | giiker: i forgot my password | 05:00 |
| giiker | patriot: I would not really use nc in your case, I would first try to read everything about NAT and run from there! | 05:00 |

| etzerd | all I know I set it to VESA | 05:10 |
| ardchoille | Roasted: place each photo in its own layer, then you can move them around in their own layers | 05:11 |
| wangdx | Ok | 05:11 |
| patriot | ok | 05:11 |
| giiker | patriot: there is a forwarding agent instead | 05:11 |
| Roasted | ardchoille, thats what I was thinking, but I wasnt sure if itd work. I figured Id ask before I get my fingers into having 100 layers to bounce around with. | 05:11 |
| ardchoille | Roasted: It's what I do all the time | 05:11 |
| etzerd | knoppies: I believe the video card is an integrated Intel HD 4500 or 5400 | 05:12 |
| giiker | running Wireshark on my nic, I found an entry about a DNS query by my box, the hostname it is looking for is mail. any ideas what app might be doing this? | 05:12 |
| Roasted | Im in the doghouse now so Im tr ying to pull off a half decent valentines day gift :/ | 05:12 |
| ardchoille | Roasted: When you know you have a few placed correctly, you can go to the top layer and "merge down" a few layers to cut down on the number of layers you have to scroll through | 05:12 |
| knoppies | etzerd, you can type "man xorg.conf" to get a better understanding of the xorg.conf configuration file. I don't own a Radeon so Im not sure how you set the resolution. | 05:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | etzerd, "lspci | grep -i vga" in a terminal will tell you for sure what card you have | 05:13 |
| ardchoille | Roasted: and ctrl+z is your friend :) | 05:13 |
| Roasted | ardchoille, ha, I know that one :P | 05:13 |
| theadmin | GIMP is one heck of a editor :/ really can't figure anything | 05:13 |

| wangdx | I am installing language pakage | 05:14 |
| giiker | running Wireshark on my nic, I found an entry about a DNS query by my box, the hostname it is looking for "A mail". any ideas what app might be doing this? | 05:15 |
| theadmin | wangdx: Oh. And what is the problem? | 05:15 |
| wangdx | tomorow is "SPRING DAY" | 05:15 |
| Out_Cold | theadmin, layering is your friend... any mistakes you make are done on only a small section that can be changed | 05:15 |
| patriot | giiker, forwarding agent is for ssh and it's secure | 05:15 |
| giiker | patriot: yeap | 05:16 |
| etzerd | Zykotick9: when I type lspci I have: Intel Corporation Arrandale Integrated Graphic | 05:16 |
| wangdx | theadmin: I want to use | 05:16 |
| Roasted | each time I paste an image, it pastes as a floating selection. how can I apply it to layer 1, or layer 2, etc? | 05:16 |
| patriot | I just want a simple packet forward | 05:16 |
| Roasted | ah, think I got it | 05:16 |
| patriot | doesn't have to be secure | 05:16 |
| giiker | ok sorry | 05:16 |
| wangdx | theadmin: I want to use Chese Input | 05:16 |
| ajay | hey actually i forgot my keyring unlock password can any 1 tell me how should i deactivate it | 05:16 |
| ardchoille | Roasted: make sure you click on the desired layer before pasting | 05:16 |
| ardchoille | Roasted: Then when you anchor it, it will stay in that layer | 05:17 |
| Roasted | gawd what a mess. I suck at this. | 05:17 |
| knoppies | etzerd, you still there? | 05:17 |
| theadmin | wangdx: Sorry, I don't really understand your english. But to use Chinese input, you'll have to enable "IBus" in System -> Preferences | 05:17 |
| patriot | the data is just a reading of electricity current | 05:17 |
| etzerd | yes | 05:17 |

| ajay | Knoppies: hey actually i forgot my keyring unlock password can u tell me how should i deactivate it | 05:18 |
| wangdx | theadmin: you so clever | 05:18 |
| Out_Cold | i guess there are no root kits in the repos lol | 05:18 |
| Roasted | when I create a new layer, it wants me to create a pixel size. What if I just want it to be whatever, just handle the image, everything else transparent? | 05:19 |
| knoppies | ajay, Im not sure. if I remember correctly your keyring password is the same as the original login password. I may be mistaken though. | 05:19 |
| giiker | patriot: my paranoia won't let me think aoutside box, I think iptables would be able to do this | 05:19 |
| overtherainbow | Roasted, the default values in new layer should be the same as your image. | 05:19 |
| ardchoille | Roasted: not anew image, a new layer. there's a button at the bottomof the layers ui | 05:19 |
| Out_Cold | Roasted, isn't there a way to copy the last layer's dimensions? | 05:19 |
| shavinder | Hello friends, I am a teacher and I am looking to host my audio files(my class lectures) on a free service. Could you please suggest such a service, a reliable one? | 05:19 |
| ajay | Knoppies: no its not hte same | 05:19 |
| patriot | giiker that's what I thought | 05:19 |
| ardchoille | the layers all stay the same size within the same image | 05:20 |
| Roasted | ardchoille, yes, a new image. Im taking a bunch of images onto 1 massive image as a collage. so when I bring in a new image as a layer, I want them to be handled a certain way | 05:20 |
| giiker | patriot: but in iptables, iḿ lost | 05:20 |

| carlll | i need help installing adobe flash player? | 06:02 |
| LDC | guys. i have querry about a partticular harddsk recovery. not related to ubuntu. which chanel should i go to? | 06:03 |
| soreau | ! flash | carlll | 06:03 |
| ubottu | carlll: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 06:03 |
| theadmin | carlll: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer (Jaunty, Karmic), sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree (earlier distributions) | 06:03 |
| metricpiano | carll: if you go to adobe (i went from youtube link) there is an option for apt-get in the flashplayer menu | 06:03 |
| soreau | carlll: You probably want to simply install flashplugin-nonfree, then restart your browser | 06:03 |
| darolu | nick125: I can't find the package xserver-xorg-driver-i810 for karmic, the only one I can find is for drapper | 06:04 |
| ventz | anyone experience 'pam_groupdn' in /etc/ldap.conf not to work under 8.04? | 06:04 |
| Roasted | hey gimp masters, new question. If I make a canvas thats 8000x8000 pixels, and later scale it to be printable in 8x10 format, will it have better print quality than making a canvas thats the exact pixel count of an 8x10 photo and applying the photos to it accordingly? | 06:04 |
| HoudiniMan | any way to detect the extra buttons on my logitech mouse? | 06:04 |
| nick125 | darolu: You're right. I forgot that Intel replaced the i810 driver with a generic-ish one. | 06:05 |
| carlll | how do i check if i have installed java right? | 06:05 |
| soreau | darolu: Which intel chipset do you have as reported by the output of: lspci|grep VGA ? | 06:05 |
| jiohdi | carill, you can go to os.icloud.com if you have java it will work, if not it will send you to java.com | 06:06 |
| HoudiniMan | carlll, http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml | 06:06 |
| darolu | soreau: gimme a min, the laptop is rebooting | 06:06 |
| metricpiano | roasted: i believe the exact pixel count would be better (if you know the print-resolution of the photo) because otherwise things get changed on resize. on the other hand starting at 8000x and resizing will help cover some editing (kind of like antialiasing)... note this is coming from non-Gimp image software experience | 06:06 |
| soreau | darolu: All the package you need should already be installed, unless you did not install karmic cleanly | 06:07 |
| * Mike_L looks around | 06:07 | |
| Roasted | metricpiano, well, I assume that gimp is picking the exactp ixel size. I chose my canvas by inch... 8x10... which is what I want to print at. | 06:07 |
| soreau | darolu: ie. if it was an upgrade from a previous version of ubuntu | 06:07 |
| Roasted | metricpiano, then I'm scaling each picture to 1x1 inch and its doing it accordingly. So I ASSUME gimp is handling it by pixel count. :P | 06:07 |
| darolu | soreau: it used to work fine, was a clean install, worked perfectly since november 09 until tonight | 06:08 |
| carlll | ok i have a laptop and it has a wifi button (on and off) but i just installed ubuntu and it wont let me turn it on it just stay orange (off) | 06:08 |
| ke1ha | Question: I'm writing a server configuration how-too, and want to capture that actions on the screen to create an mpg or avi. Any suggestions on video capture packages? | 06:08 |
| soreau | darolu: That is very odd. Can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log from the failed session? | 06:08 |
| soreau | carlll: Do you know which wifi chip it is as reported by lspci? | 06:09 |
| mahi | hi | 06:09 |
| carlll | soreau no but i dont have any idea where to find it | 06:10 |
| soreau | carlll: lspci is a command you run in your terminal that tells you what hardware you have in the machine | 06:10 |
| nick125 | darolu: Try to install xserver-xorg-video-intel | 06:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | ke1ha, i was trying various screencasting software the other week, the best results i got was using ffmpeg like "ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 25 -s 1024x768 -i :0.0 -vcodec huffyuv -sameq screencast.avi" one option for ya anyways (i was trying to capture compiz effects for fps was a big concern for me, and probably not so much what your doing with a how-to) | 06:10 |
| carlll | so how do i find it out? | 06:11 |
| jiohdi | carlll: if you have a broadcom wifi you need to search for drivers online | 06:11 |
| soreau | carlll: 1) Open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) 2) Type lspci and press enter 3) Look for the line that talks about your wireless ethernet apater | 06:11 |
| carlll | it came installed on my laptop | 06:11 |
| soreau | adapter* | 06:12 |
| Mike_L | is it OK for me to ask a question about getting an updated version of a package? | 06:12 |
| darolu | soreau, nick125: I'll do it as soon as it boots, it's doing a system check | 06:12 |
| darolu | thansk for the help | 06:12 |
| nick125 | darolu: Ah. Let me know what happens. | 06:12 |
| ke1ha | ZykoticK9, tnx. i've got a couple commercial options, but they cost allot for a simple this is how you do it deal. | 06:13 |
| soreau | nick125: I would like to think the intel driver package did not get removed somehow, but then again, it wouldnt be the first time ;) | 06:13 |
| carlll | soreau: Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) | 06:13 |
| soreau | carlll: Ok, so it is an atheros chipset. The driver module for that card is ath5k. So to check if it is loaded, do you see any output from the command: lsmod|grep ath5k | 06:14 |
| nick125 | soreau: Yeah.. | 06:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | ke1ha, check out the GUI apps gtk-recordMyDesktop & Istanbul as well | 06:14 |
| carlll | so type that in the terminal? | 06:14 |
| soreau | carlll: Yes. | 06:14 |
| Mike_L | Could someone please help me to install this bugfix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ec2-api-tools/+bug/497171 ? I have karmic multiverse in my sources.list and I did apt-get update, but apt-cache search ec2-api-tools still shows only the old version | 06:14 |

| carlll | in it | 06:19 |
| titan_ark | why is the latest chrome update 12 Megs? | 06:20 |
| soreau | carlll: It is not going to say "driver". It is a kernel module, which is a driver. The command lsmod is short for "list modules" and lists the loaded modules on your system | 06:20 |
| Mike_L | carlll: your driver is called ath5k so look for lines with that | 06:21 |
| carlll | http://paste.ubuntu.com/374473/ | 06:21 |
| mneptok | titan_ark: because when they created the update it was about 1MB shy of 13MB. | 06:21 |
| soreau | carlll: I want to see the output of iwconfig | 06:21 |
| Mike_L | carlll: that's the top of your kernel messages log. What you want should be at the bottom | 06:21 |
| soreau | carlll: It will be more than a handful of lines, so pastebin the output of iwconfig | 06:22 |

| iceroot | Roasted: also have a look at google for gimp tutorials, there are nice ones | 07:01 |
| Roasted | iceroot, my bad, I was in ubuntu off topic earlier asking gimp questions and a few users in there knew what I was asking. Thought I was still there... my bad. | 07:02 |
| iceroot | Roasted: np | 07:02 |
| ericjames | I'm having a bit of trouble (-_-); | 07:02 |
| zulfi | dose any one no when is ubuntu 10.4 coming out | 07:02 |
| iceroot | zulfi: there is no "better" both are different releases | 07:02 |
| ericjames | I just installed ubuntu 9.10 on my thinkpad x61 tablet | 07:02 |
| iceroot | zulfi: 2010.04.x | 07:02 |
| i_is_broke | april | 07:02 |
| zulfi | next mouth right oh | 07:03 |
| iceroot | zulfi: 20(10.04).xx | 07:03 |

| zulfi | so why are they making ubuntu 10.04 im really courues | 07:03 |
| ericjames | I'm trying to enable screen rotation via screen mount switch. | 07:03 |
| iceroot | zulfi: every 6 months there is a new release | 07:03 |
| toastedmilk | Is there any way to ls the contents of a man page into a text document? | 07:04 |
| HoudiniMan | does search from a folder view go into subdirectories? | 07:04 |
| iceroot | zulfi: 8.04, 8.10, 9.04, 9.10, 10.04 | 07:04 |
| zulfi | really dam because i just downloaded 9.10 ND ITS REALLY GOOD RIGHT KNOW | 07:04 |
| ericjames | I' configured the acpi events in fedora effortlessly, but I can't seem to reproduce in ubuntu. | 07:04 |
| zulfi | i see | 07:04 |
| iceroot | zulfi: then use it, its supported for 18 months | 07:04 |
| zulfi | the one i have right know right | 07:04 |
| zulfi | im using 9.10 | 07:05 |
| zulfi | right | 07:05 |
| iceroot | !release | zulfi | 07:05 |
| ubottu | zulfi: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 07:05 |
| zulfi | oh | 07:05 |
| toastedmilk | iceroot, is 10.04 stable? | 07:05 |
| zulfi | i get you know sorry for all those Qus | 07:05 |
| iceroot | toastedmilk: no | 07:06 |
| toastedmilk | zulfi, it's 'now', not 'know' | 07:06 |
| ericjames | so.. I've added a file in /etc/acpi/events with the name of the event as reported by acpi_listen, and the action (a script to rotate the screen) | 07:06 |
| zyxon | hello | 07:06 |
| HoudiniMan | ok that's a better solution | 07:06 |
| HoudiniMan | chrome bookmark sync will keep windows and linux sync'd for me :) | 07:06 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, and... | 07:06 |
| zulfi | kind of drunk today | 07:06 |
| ericjames | however the action does not occur unfortunately | 07:06 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, you wrote the script? | 07:07 |
| Kismet | anyone any idea why my hard drives won't show up in nautilus and even usb plugged in hard drive won't be there automatically | 07:07 |
| kreiszner | toastedmilk, man ls > file | 07:07 |
| ericjames | when I try to start, restart, stop, or debug acpid I get 'acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy' | 07:07 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: currently the script is just one line 'xrandr --output LVDS1 --rotate right' | 07:09 |
| ericjames | well, two lines including '#!/bin/sh' | 07:09 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, debug? | 07:09 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, haha of course | 07:09 |
| ericjames | sudo acpid -d | 07:09 |
| ericjames | sudo acpid --debug | 07:09 |
| xjkx | My MotherBoard's manual says it supports memories DDR400/333/266. I checked the memory I'm using on the memory test from linux(that one on grub list), and memory shows this: Settings: 199mhz(DDR399) is it the same ? Or does it actually mean this mobo doesn't support the memory ? I'm having some computer problems and I'm betting on the memory, but I could be wrong. | 07:10 |
| anthony | Noob question (I think): I just installed LAMP, now I'm not sure how to get to phpmyadmin - how should I go about this? Thanks! | 07:11 |
| HoudiniMan | anthony, have you tried navigating to localhost? | 07:11 |
| mneptok | !info phpmyadmin | 07:12 |
| anthony | yeah. it says: "It works!" | 07:12 |
| anthony | But nothing else | 07:12 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: any idea why i cant start or stop acpid? or why the script wouldn't execute? | 07:12 |
| ubottu | phpmyadmin (source: phpmyadmin): MySQL web administration tool. In component universe, is extra. Version 4:3.2.2.1-1 (karmic), package size 3612 kB, installed size 13516 kB | 07:12 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, i dunno. do you need to exit the script after it's finished? You should see what acpi is/has to do so your script isn't interrupting acpi's business | 07:12 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: how do you mean? | 07:13 |
| anthony | How do I install that? | 07:13 |
| toastedmilk | anthony, apt-get install | 07:13 |
| anthony | thanks toastedmilk! | 07:14 |
| ubuntu_ | if i'm booted on the live cd, is is possible to temporarily eject the disk so i can burn a dvd? | 07:15 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as aceface | ||
| aceface | oops | 07:16 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, since it says device busy..start it at bootup? I don't really know anythign about scripting acpi | 07:16 |
| anthony | on localhost it says: "This is the default web page for this server. The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet." I assume I need phpmyadmin to change the stuff there? | 07:16 |
| toastedmilk | anthony, or write something for the server to display, but you're getting real close to being offtopic | 07:16 |
| ericjames | has anybody had this problem registering acpi actions to events? | 07:16 |
| anthony | I tried WAMP on windows, does the menu resemble that if I install LAMP + phpmyadmin? | 07:17 |
| anthony | Oh | 07:17 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, post some debug info to pastebin? | 07:17 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: I've tried adding the command acpid start to startup applications but nothing changed | 07:17 |
| anthony | is there an off topic channel that I should go to? | 07:18 |
| linkiduu | How can I create a directory so that it cannot exceed 1 gb ? | 07:18 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, hmm..I just tried 'sudo acpid' and it said Device or resource busy | 07:18 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: I'm not sure what would be useful to pastebin.. the scripts and error message? let me know what would be useful and I will get it to you. | 07:18 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: so I'm not the only one (^__^) | 07:19 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, man acpid has some information about how debian differs from other linux flavors(e.g. fedora) | 07:20 |
| linkiduu | How can I create a directory so that it cannot exceed 1 gb ? | 07:20 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, what it seems to me is that you'll have to stop(it always says it's busy?) acpid and then add the script, then restart | 07:22 |
| StuckMojo | so what's the deal with the "alternative" installer? | 07:22 |
| StuckMojo | there's both that and a 64bit desktop cd? | 07:23 |
| llutz | StuckMojo: alternate isn't a live-cd, textmode installer, more user-options | 07:24 |
| toastedmilk | Does anyone know how to mount /proc and /dev correctly from a live cd? | 07:24 |
| linkiduu | Hi.I removed apache2 | 07:24 |
| StuckMojo | llutz: does it have both 64 and 32 bit? | 07:24 |
| linkiduu | but its still binded to port 80 :( | 07:24 |
| llutz | toastedmilk: mount proc /proc -t proc | 07:24 |
| StuckMojo | on one cd? or are there 2? | 07:24 |
| ttyX | StuckMojo: there are two | 07:24 |
| toastedmilk | llutz, ..just like that? | 07:25 |
| ttyX | 32bit & 64bit | 07:25 |
| llutz | StuckMojo: 2 different cds | 07:25 |
| === mohamed is now known as Guest42371 | ||
| ericjames | toastedmilk: the difference mentioned is the naming convention of the event files. in fedora i name the event X61ToTablet.conf, in debian it's just X61ToTablet | 07:25 |
| StuckMojo | boy they don't make it easy to find the 64bit desktop cd | 07:25 |
| StuckMojo | there's no obvious link to it | 07:25 |
| llutz | StuckMojo: look for desktop amd64 | 07:25 |
| zoryk | just torrent it | 07:25 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, yikes.. | 07:26 |
| toastedmilk | Mmm...amd64 | 07:26 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: I have added the script and restarted mt computer.. several times. | 07:26 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: yikes? | 07:26 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, like I said man, just takin' shots in the dark. I don't know the first thing about acpid scripting | 07:26 |
| ttyX | StuckMojo: here it is http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ | 07:26 |
| ericjames | I appreciate your willingness to help none the less! (^__^) | 07:27 |
| StuckMojo | zoryk: i realize it's not that hard to get, i just find it odd that it's not obviously linked | 07:27 |
| StuckMojo | off the download page | 07:27 |
| StuckMojo | nor is the alternative cd | 07:27 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, sorry i couldn't find a solution for you : [ | 07:27 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: no worries | 07:27 |
| ericjames | I'll come back and ask later i suppose. | 07:27 |
| zoryk | yeahh i agree, maybe they're trying to vet people so if you want the x64 you need to find it :P | 07:27 |
| aceface | i'm on the live cd, on my mac. I can't access some of my files on the HD because of permissions | 07:27 |

| aceface | pkm4o93: i know it's crazy | 07:33 |

| toastedmilk | theadmin, should be appearance | 07:36 |
| pkm4o93 | for people new to linux I think its fair to give them something that looks reasonable similar eg KDE + redmond theme etc | 07:36 |

| guillaume_ | wine is the same like playonlinux right? | 08:02 |
| toastedmilk | [NWM]5starG, you need to read the ubuntu documentation on dual booting | 08:02 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, well, it should either print out something like /usr/bin/wine or nothing at all | 08:02 |
| [NWM]5starG | u have a link by cha nce? | 08:02 |
| toastedmilk | I'm trying to reinstall a linux image file from a live CD and I'm having trouble. Can anyone take a look at this? http://pastebin.com/m54c2fac6 | 08:02 |
| toastedmilk | guillaume_, wrong channel. | 08:02 |
| guillaume_ | ok lol | 08:02 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | guillaume_, playonlinux might be derived from wine, but wine came first | 08:02 |
| akirapowers | hmm | 08:03 |
| toastedmilk | guillaume_, also, there should be information on the wine website about games/setups | 08:03 |
| akirapowers | before the update was right below system tools | 08:03 |
| akirapowers | was ubuntu that updaed | 08:03 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, open up a terminal | 08:03 |
| guillaume_ | thx all srry for disturbing | 08:03 |
| akirapowers | their | 08:03 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | guillaume_, actually I think in context your curiosity was justified | 08:03 |
| toastedmilk | guillaume_, not a disturbance : ) | 08:04 |
| akirapowers | yes? | 08:05 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | OK | 08:05 |
| guillaume_ | <3 linux community, more sympathic than windows ^^ | 08:05 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Now type which wine, and tell me if it says anything | 08:05 |
| mgmuscari | does anybody know how to clone output on one pulseaudio sink to an rtp sink? | 08:05 |
| akirapowers | prompt again | 08:05 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | OK | 08:05 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | now type dpkg -I wine, and tell me if it says anything | 08:07 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | err, -l | 08:08 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | -L | 08:08 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | There we go | 08:08 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Sorry, I'm reading the man page for dpkg, I'm on my gentoo machine right now | 08:08 |

| toastedmilk | I'm trying to reinstall a linux image file from a live CD and I'm having trouble. Can anyone take a look at this? http://pastebin.com/m54c2fac6 | 08:09 |
| sandro__ | buongiorno a tutti | 08:09 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | So have you tried marking the package for reinstallation? | 08:09 |
| guillaume_ | sandro__, hi | 08:10 |
| Kartagis | !info empathy | 08:10 |
| ubottu | empathy (source: empathy): High-level library and user-interface for Telepathy. In component main, is optional. Version 2.28.1.1-0ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 115 kB, installed size 456 kB | 08:10 |
| akirapowers | tbh still fairly new been working with for about two days consistantly tenkerd with for ahwie boot disk and stuff | 08:10 |
| toastedmilk | Kartagis, is that a joke? | 08:10 |
| akirapowers | but got virtual machines running among the mix of programs you need within unbuntu | 08:10 |
| Kartagis | toastedmilk, no, why? | 08:11 |
| toastedmilk | Kartagis, empathy, telepathy.. | 08:11 |
| guillaume_ | it's a little bit... difficult to beleive^^ | 08:11 |
| akirapowers | what i just thought was wierd is wine was working great smooth but after the ubuntu update just gone | 08:11 |
| dnivra | i'm trying to check for updates using update manager; i'd set a proxy when I was at college. but now it still complains "cannot find proxy". how do i let it know I'm using a direct connection? i checked synaptic and network proxy: all are configured as direct connection to the net. | 08:12 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, the ubuntu updater has never really been perfect; it's gotten way better than its original form but occasionally things get mislaid | 08:12 |
| Myrtti | toastedmilk: empathy uses the telepathy backend. a bit like pidgin is using purple | 08:12 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, try apt-get --reinstall install wine | 08:12 |
| Myrtti | toastedmilk: geeks are known for bad humour anyway | 08:12 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | (I think that's how you do it) | 08:12 |
| guillaume_ | Did you have update wine before? | 08:12 |
| akirapowers | aww check dont do no more ty | 08:12 |
| dnivra | if it's of any use, everytime i open a terminal, $http_proxy has a value; it isn't blank. what is wrong and how do I fix it? | 08:12 |
| akirapowers | no reinstall command found | 08:13 |
| toastedmilk | I'm trying to reinstall a linux image file from a live CD and I'm having trouble. Can anyone take a look at this? http://pastebin.com/m54c2fac6 | 08:13 |
| toastedmilk | Myrtti, yeah, but what are you gonna do? :P | 08:13 |
| akirapowers | sudo apt-get install wine | 08:13 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, hold on | 08:13 |
| toastedmilk | Does anyone know how to mount /dev/pct correctly with chroot? | 08:14 |
| Gryphon1 | pkm4o93:in Compiz-Utility what is video playback?? Whats is use?? | 08:14 |
| akirapowers | compbiz works on that | 08:14 |
| akirapowers | ty sir not tryingot get ahead of you | 08:14 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, you have to prefix --reinstall with two dashes | 08:15 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Like apt-get --reinstall install wine | 08:15 |
| akirapowers | correct | 08:15 |
| akirapowers | apt-get--reinstall install wine | 08:15 |
| akirapowers | exactly as i put it | 08:15 |
| toastedmilk | Sir_Fawnpug, or apt-get install --reinstall wine :) | 08:15 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Well there has to be a space between get and the first dash of --reinstall | 08:15 |
| almoxarife | what's wrong with using synaptic? | 08:16 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | toastedmilk, you'll have to forgive me on that one, haha | 08:16 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | almoxarife, nothing really | 08:16 |
| llutz | toastedmilk: mount -o bind /dev /chroot/dev | 08:16 |
| toastedmilk | Sir_Fawnpug, :P | 08:17 |
| akirapowers | sudo apt-get install --reinstall wine | 08:17 |
| akirapowers | worked | 08:17 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, good | 08:17 |
| akirapowers | gave me admin thing | 08:17 |
| akirapowers | sowent to sudo hehehe | 08:17 |
| toastedmilk | llutz, so... mount -o bind /dev /media/ubuntu/dev ?? | 08:17 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | When its finished you should have wine back | 08:18 |
| llutz | toastedmilk: yes | 08:18 |

| Gryphon1 | akirapower: what is wine??? | 08:18 |
| akirapowers | finished but last line says | 08:18 |
| akirapowers | e: broken packages | 08:18 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Gryphon1, wine is not an emulator. | 08:18 |
| toastedmilk | llutz, so, with that and proc i should be able to install packages on a partition from the live cd. correct? | 08:18 |
| toastedmilk | Gryphon1, wine allows you to run windows executables on linux | 08:18 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Gryphon1, haha, seriously though, it's this thing that lets you run windows programs | 08:18 |
| akirapowers | yes | 08:19 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, hmm | 08:19 |
| llutz | toastedmilk:should | 08:19 |

| Sir_Fawnpug | I am not sure what to say, did you do an update (as opposed to an upgrade) before trying to reinstall wine? | 08:20 |
| akirapowers | a way to remove broken packages maybe | 08:20 |
| dnivra | help with proxy issues anyone? I configured in System -> Preference -> Network Proxy when in college. Now I'm back home and so changed to direct connection there. But somehow bash, synaptic and update manager still are configured to use the proxy. what is wrong? | 08:20 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | akirapowers, there might be with dpkg | 08:20 |
| dnivra | funny part is google chrome uses the "network proxy" and it works fine! | 08:21 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | To tell you the truth I am not sure if I have the expertise to help you much further | 08:21 |

| HoudiniMan | hah! been on this OS for like 2 hours :P | 08:27 |
| akirapowers | lets install again | 08:27 |
| almoxarife | Ademan: had that happen too, my fix was to connect to the internet via ethernet, it updated itself | 08:27 |
| Ademan | almoxarife: yeah... unfortunately that's not possible right now | 08:27 |
| Ademan | darolu: won't that just bring up the hardware drivers window? | 08:28 |

| ke1ha | I had trouble today when I installed a new 9.10 box, WEP does not play well, but WAP went without a hitch. Submitted a Bug rpt for it, but there's clearly still a few issues with WiFi | 08:29 |
| dnivra | can someone help: got proxy issues. | 08:29 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, hahaha, yup! they call 'em screenlets | 08:29 |
| akirapowers | you still thier sir ? | 08:29 |
| Ademan | darolu: no the problem is it's empty, it had drivers for my wireless card and graphics chipset when i was running the LiveCD but installed it doesn't show anything | 08:29 |
| HoudiniMan | toastedmilk, how do i get them? | 08:29 |
| Gryphon1 | Can i run a GPRS Modem through wine???thats configured to work on windows, anyone know? please?:) | 08:29 |
| Ademan | toastedmilk: why would dhclient have any useful output if i have no wireless interface? | 08:29 |
| Myrtti | Gryphon1: if the device isn't identified by Linux itself, there's no way of making wine do it | 08:29 |
| HoudiniMan | akirapowers, what are you installing? | 08:30 |
| toastedmilk | Ademan, so wait. your problem isn't that you can't connect to your wireless? | 08:30 |
| akirapowers | sir_fawnpung | 08:30 |
| toastedmilk | llutz, any theories? | 08:30 |
| HoudiniMan | toastedmilk, i think his computer doesn't see his hardware properly | 08:30 |
| HoudiniMan | driver issue or something | 08:30 |
| llutz | toastedmilk: no really, no | 08:30 |
| toastedmilk | llutz, bleh. thanks for taking a look at it. | 08:30 |
| ke1ha | It's seeing it with LiveCD just not after HD install right ? | 08:30 |
| toastedmilk | Can anyone help me with this? http://pastebin.com/m53e25112 | 08:31 |
| akirapowers | guessstill not her ehdini | 08:31 |
| akirapowers | hudini | 08:31 |
| toastedmilk | Ademan, well, in that case idk | 08:31 |
| Gryphon1 | Myrtti: Thanks :) | 08:31 |
| HoudiniMan | akirapowers, im here, i said what are you trying to install? | 08:31 |
| akirapowers | wine was curupted or osmthing | 08:31 |
| Ademan | toastedmilk: it is, but the problem before that is that i don't have drivers for my wireless NIC, *but* the LiveCD found and allowed me to install drivers via the Hardware Drivers window | 08:31 |
| Myrtti | akirapowers: if you type in few first letters and hit tab, chances are that your irc client autocompletes the nick for you | 08:31 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, I'm not sure where I got them...hahahaha. They should be pretty easily accessible | 08:31 |
| akirapowers | it let me uninstall it formt heirnow tryong to put bakc on it let me but no icons | 08:31 |
| toastedmilk | Ademan, so..you need to use a proprietary driver for your wireless card? | 08:32 |
| Ademan | toastedmilk: fekkin broadcom... | 08:32 |
| HoudiniMan | toastedmilk, so are they native screenlets or an app to run screenlets? | 08:32 |
| ke1ha | Ademan, that's a bug on the installer, send it in on Launchpad | 08:32 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | Ademan, broadcom cards can be tricky | 08:32 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, I'm pretty sure it's written with python | 08:32 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, I think you can get them from the repositories | 08:33 |
| Ademan | screenlets are python yes HoudiniMan | 08:33 |
| Myrtti | Ademan: watch your language, obfuscating swearing is still swearing | 08:33 |
| HoudiniMan | akirapowers, sorry i've never installed wine | 08:33 |
| akirapowers | wine is good stuff | 08:33 |
| Ademan | Myrtti: :-/ | 08:33 |
| akirapowers | how you do the name thing in here | 08:33 |

| toastedmilk | rumpsy, what do you need to use chroot for? | 08:42 |
| rumpsy | !chroot | 08:42 |
| ubottu | chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot) | 08:42 |

| mbhagya | an alternative to itunes.. songbird | 08:53 |
| dnivra | HoudiniMan, check keyboard shortcuts: System -> Preference -> Keyboard Shortcuts. | 08:53 |

| GoldChaos | Hey, everyone! I'm in serious need of help. | 08:56 |
| rumpsy | Gryphon1: you need to read the whole story of that website | 08:56 |
| Gryphon1 | OK | 08:56 |
| Gryphon1 | :) | 08:56 |
| GoldChaos | My friend has a Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 - a cam I heard works very well with Ubuntu. | 08:56 |
| toastedmilk | rumpsy, yeah, there's a python console for scripts! | 08:56 |
| GoldChaos | Her computer just crashed, so I switched her to Ubuntu in hopes everything would work. | 08:56 |
| dnivra | fuzzybunny, I'm not sure if you can do so with rapidshare: cos there's a wait period and stuff for it right? | 08:57 |
| GoldChaos | Unfortunately, when using Skype, the cam works but the microphone on the cam does not! | 08:57 |
| toastedmilk | fuzzybunny, my advice is to find the link you want and then just type that straight into the browser | 08:57 |
| rumpsy | toastedmilk: For what? | 08:57 |
| DaemonFC | Gryphon1, I got rid of my iPod over it, but it's been a few years. The iPod just totally ignores the MP3 tags and uses some kind of awful proprietary database that iTunes sends it, it's kind of like MTP players only worse. | 08:57 |
| fuzzybunny | dnivra, yeah it has one of those timer things | 08:57 |
| DaemonFC | so it was filing all my MP3s under "Unknown Artist > Unknown Album" | 08:57 |
| fuzzybunny | toastedmilk, yeah i tried that and it does the same thing | 08:57 |
| GoldChaos | :/ | 08:57 |
| toastedmilk | rumpsy, well, you could write a python script that finds and removes doubles in your music lists | 08:57 |
| GoldChaos | Nobody can help? | 08:57 |
| rumpsy | toastedmilk: oh . . :) .. okay | 08:58 |
| dnivra | GoldChaos, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype. try that. | 08:58 |

| GoldChaos | No help. | 08:58 |
| fuzzybunny | toastedmilk, i am not sure how to do that ;) | 08:58 |
| crespo | hi guys | 08:58 |
| GoldChaos | It says the mic works with an updated uvcvideo driver | 08:58 |
| rumpsy | toastedmilk: But i have to be good in python language though. | 08:58 |
| toastedmilk | fuzzybunny, find the link in a normal browser | 08:58 |
| GoldChaos | I had her compile and install the latest version | 08:58 |
| GoldChaos | It didn't help. | 08:58 |
| crespo | how do i check all the routes present on my ubuntu server? | 08:58 |
| crespo | will "route -a" work?? | 08:58 |
| toastedmilk | rumpsy, exactly. and songbird comes with a doubles-deleter :) | 08:59 |
| dnivra | crespo, maybe "route -n" | 08:59 |
| ke1ha | rumpsy, get on the programmers IRC and ask them for a simple grep | awk | sed script, should eb simple for them. | 08:59 |
| GoldChaos | The only audio input devices that currently appear on Skype's list is Pulse Audio Server (local) | 08:59 |
| dnivra | GoldChaos, I'm not sure. i used skype with no problems. My friend had video problems but we debugged it alright. check if the mic works with ubuntu using the sound recorder. if not wait, someone might help out. | 09:00 |
| DaemonFC | Crapple can't just build in a tag reader and allow you to drag and drop. I'd say that iPod is the second worst player out there, only behind Zune, and buying one to use it with anything other than iTunes is crazy. | 09:00 |

| darolu | marlen, can you be more specific? | 09:02 |
| rumpsy | marlen: what is the problem | 09:02 |
| toastedmilk | DaemonFC, Ah, that's why it's so slow. VLC. | 09:02 |
| ke1ha | .. well awk and sed are powerful tools, if you master them, then throw in some perl, you can do allot of data manipulation. | 09:02 |
| marlen | the port is closed when I do the test | 09:02 |
| dnivra | GoldChaos, I've no clue. ask the person to test sound using soudn recorder. or someone else might help out. | 09:02 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, is it 9.10? | 09:02 |
| GoldChaos | alright. :/ | 09:03 |
| HoudiniMan | toastedmilk, yep | 09:03 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, then I have no idea, because there's no xorg.conf | 09:03 |
| marlen | I have xubuntu | 09:03 |
| DaemonFC | Gryphon1, You can flash over the Crapple firmware with Rockbox and get one fine portable media player, but the problem there is that iPod has an internal battery, and Crapple will refuse to replace the battery when it dies if you have Rockbox on it. So be prepared to reflash it with Crapple firmware and risk bricking it again when that day comes. | 09:03 |
| llutz | ke1ha: if you know perl, you hardly need sed/awk anymore | 09:03 |
| darolu | marlen: you have to open whatever port you are using on your router/firewall | 09:03 |
| === Gateway is now known as Guest23928 | ||
| toastedmilk | marlen, #xubuntu | 09:03 |
| ke1ha | .. true | 09:03 |
| DaemonFC | best thing you get with Rockbox is Wavpack, FLAC, and Vorbis | 09:03 |
| HoudiniMan | toastedmilk, i think there is, my nvidia thing was writing to it | 09:03 |
| rumpsy | marlen: i had the same problem in morning, but i cleared that | 09:03 |
| marlen | how can I open the port? | 09:04 |
| marlen | I'm a beginner with linux. | 09:04 |
| rumpsy | marlen: you need to add some info to your NAT | 09:04 |
| DaemonFC | toastedmilk, VLC isn't bad, the reason Songbird is slow is because they strapped Firefox onto it and use XUL plugins | 09:04 |
| * DaemonFC pukes | 09:04 | |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, hmm. run 'sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf' | 09:04 |
| DaemonFC | toastedmilk, The last time I tried Songbird was on Vista, and it was eating up well over 150 megs of RAM playing an MP3 file | 09:05 |
| toastedmilk | DaemonFC, I never got VLC to run smoothly. But I totally believe you. Do you want to write me a python script that finds and removes doubles? | 09:05 |
| rumpsy | marlen: At first open your router/modem using browser, this will be default ip 192.168.1.1 | 09:05 |
| toastedmilk | DaemonFC, ouch...hahaha | 09:05 |
| Gryphon1 | DeamonFC: How long do ipod batteries last????????????:( | 09:05 |
| Krewl | off to network room, disconnecting | 09:06 |
| HoudiniMan | toastedmilk, got it open | 09:06 |
| marlen | ok, thank you. | 09:06 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, well, close it and don't save it! | 09:06 |
| DaemonFC | Gryphon1, Depends on how much you use it and your charging patterns. It's best to completely drain it before recharging. 8 hours a day every day it'll last about 1-2 years | 09:06 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, You may need to set rates in xorg.conf based on your monitor | 09:07 |
| DaemonFC | the capacity slowly goes down every time you charge the thing until it can no longer hold a usable charge | 09:07 |
| Gryphon1 | only?? | 09:07 |
| darolu | marlen: the firewall blocking the port is most likely in your router; try to access its software using your browser; sometimes typing "home" in the adress bar gets you there | 09:07 |
| DaemonFC | Gryphon1, yeah, the typical expectation is 2 years | 09:07 |
| rumpsy | marlen: goto advance setup, search for NAT option, add your current system IP, or what ever port you want to open, if you find fault internet, don't hesitate to switch to default settings | 09:07 |
| Gryphon1 | can i get a battery and change it my self? | 09:07 |
| HoudiniMan | toastedmilk, for the screen dimming from idleness? | 09:08 |
| DaemonFC | Gryphon1, No, it's built in. Disassembly voids warranty. Crapple charges $50 to replace the battery. | 09:08 |
| ke1ha | probably need to set a route and open that port to the box. | 09:08 |
| knoppies | I don't often have this PC plugged into sound, and I want Pidgin and/or Empathy to 'system beep' whenever I get a message. | 09:08 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, correct. I would check google/forums to see if someone has had similar problems. maybe with nvidia, maybe with your monitor | 09:08 |
| toastedmilk | HoudiniMan, a word of warning though. don't go screwing around with xorg.conf without knowing what you're doing! | 09:09 |
| DaemonFC | Gryphon1, Setting your screen darker and having the backlight turn off after 5 seconds is a good way to prolong the battery | 09:09 |
| DaemonFC | it may give you another 5% usable life | 09:09 |
| HoudiniMan | this seems like an OS setting more than display setting | 09:09 |
| knoppies | toastedmilk, HoudiniMan, always make a backup of xorg.conf before editing it. | 09:09 |

| DaemonFC | OK, I've got one, on boot it tells me it can't read vesafb.ko because of an invalid argument, what to do? | 09:18 |
| toastedmilk | Machtin, hmm. | 09:18 |
| ke1ha | do a uname -r and find out what your on, the use the Package manger, dont remove your kernel though :-) | 09:18 |
| rumpsy | mbhagya: At present you are having kernel 2.6.31-19? | 09:19 |
| Machtin | toastedmilk: just another blind thought.. actually i think, you know more about that stuff than I do.. | 09:19 |
| mbhagya | rumpsy: yes | 09:19 |
| toastedmilk | Machtin, hahahahahahahaha you've got to be joking | 09:19 |
| mbhagya | rumpsy: ya i have old kernels on the grub list | 09:19 |
| Machtin | not at all! | 09:19 |
| rumpsy | mbhagya: goto synaptic, and remove old kernel and its headers | 09:20 |
| toastedmilk | mbhagya, but make a backup!!! | 09:20 |
| toastedmilk | mbhagya, or you'll be where I am! | 09:20 |
| mbhagya | ok.. :) | 09:20 |
| toastedmilk | Machtin, nah man, I've only been using linux for a few months, just messing things up and fixing them with help from people on IRC | 09:20 |
| rumpsy | mbhagya: leave the kernel, where you are now, and install headers of current kernel | 09:21 |
| ke1ha | here ys go, this will work: http://www.foogazi.com/2008/07/02/quickzi-how-to-remove-older-kernels-from-ubuntu/ | 09:21 |
| mbhagya | thnx a tonne! | 09:21 |
| toastedmilk | ejat, yay ssl! | 09:21 |
| Machtin | well, upgrading didn't work then, i guess ^^ | 09:21 |
| crespo | guys, if i want to disable notifications on nagios, how can i go about this? | 09:22 |
| ke1ha | while your at it, do a localepurge and -autoremove cleans up allot of junk ya don' need. | 09:23 |
| toastedmilk | Can anyone help me with this? http://pastebin.com/m53e25112 | 09:23 |
| rumpsy | mbhagya: At the end, apt-get autoremove... | 09:23 |
| mbhagya | okay.. :) | 09:24 |
| fuzzybunny | hey everyone if you guys go to a webcal:// is it automatically associated with evolution? for some reason if I double click on .ics files or go to webcal links they don't work with Evolution. Is this the same for everyone? | 09:24 |
| rumpsy | toastedmilk: using live cd you can clear that i think so, for that you have to know about kernel instllation | 09:25 |
| toastedmilk | rumpsy, ...what? | 09:25 |
| toastedmilk | rumpsy, 'you can clear that i think so'??? | 09:25 |
| rumpsy | toastedmilk: i was talking about pastebin | 09:26 |
| toastedmilk | rumpsy, so...what are you talking about | 09:26 |
| rumpsy | toastedmilk: so, what is that paste all about | 09:27 |

| ericjames | still around toastedmilk? | 09:29 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, yo | 09:29 |
| ericjames | i figured it out! :) | 09:29 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, nice!! what did you have to do!? | 09:29 |
| ericjames | i'm a little embarrassed to say so.. lol | 09:29 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, well you asked if i was here and told me you fixed it!! let's hear it | 09:30 |
| akirapowers | wootowot | 09:30 |
| akirapowers | got it working | 09:30 |
| akirapowers | IM SEXY and im BACK in business | 09:30 |
| ericjames | turns out you can't use 'sudo acpid stop' while acpid's running (in ubuntu anyway), I had to type 'sudo stop acpid' | 09:31 |
| toastedmilk | akirapowers, and still a bit of a noob? :P | 09:31 |
| ericjames | haha | 09:31 |
| akirapowers | ow yeahhh | 09:31 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, so you did have to stop acpid? | 09:31 |
| akirapowers | chika chica | 09:31 |
| ericjames | after that, i started it again, 'sudo acpid start' and it works like a charm. | 09:31 |
| toastedmilk | akirapowers, errit | 09:31 |
| akirapowers | i will have EVE ona linux platform runnng tomrrow | 09:31 |
| rumpsy | what is noob? | 09:31 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: yes, it had to be stopped. | 09:31 |
| seamarshall | I just gave my "www" folder chmod 600 accidentally and now I receive a 404 error. How do I fix this? | 09:31 |
| toastedmilk | rumpsy, ....really? | 09:31 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, neat! i guessed somewhat right! | 09:32 |
| ke1ha | yeah, chmod 775 | 09:32 |
| seamarshall | chmod 775 to fix? | 09:32 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: not sure if it was necessary, but before 'sudo acpid start' i did a 'sudo acpid --debug' and it told me that two user events were registered. | 09:33 |
| ke1ha | yeah, should work. | 09:33 |
| ericjames | not it works perfectly. | 09:33 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, awesome. now you're that much more proficient in acpid scripting :P | 09:33 |
| seamarshall | ke1ha: Awesome! thanks | 09:33 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, or at least on debian-based os's | 09:33 |
| ericjames | screen rotate, stylus and touch rotate, and the tablet d-pad rotates | 09:34 |
| akirapowers | thanks all im out peace | 09:34 |
| seamarshall | What is the difference between chmod 600 and 775? | 09:34 |
| ke1ha | akirapowers, one way is using the control script, the other is using the init.d start / stop thats why it failed. | 09:34 |
| toastedmilk | Can anyone help me with this? http://pastebin.com/m53e25112 | 09:34 |

| r3za | hi guys , when i want to minimize a windows its going be hide , how can i fix it ? | 09:35 |
| ke1ha | in a nutshell, no pu intended .. 600 is RO for you only, the other is RWX RX RX | 09:35 |
| ericjames | I couldn't figure out how to get the d-pad to rotate in fedora. also docking/undocking had to be done while power was off in fedora to prevent crashing, and suspend didn't work well. in ubuntu suspend, hibernate, and docking/undocking work perfectly. | 09:35 |

| seamarshall | ok now that I have my server fixed. When I try to upload to joomla i receive this error "Permission denied in /var/www/libraries/joomla/filesystem/file.php on line 298" | 09:36 |
| toastedmilk | r3za, first, don't spam. second, what are you talking about? | 09:36 |
| rob_p | ke1ha: ham? | 09:36 |
| ericjames | I'm having just one more configuration issue though :-/ | 09:36 |
| ke1ha | rrr yes | 09:36 |
| rumpsy | i donno where it went hidden, lol | 09:36 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, what up | 09:36 |
| rob_p | ke1ha: me too :-) | 09:36 |
| ericjames | I believe it's related to the limit of keys in x | 09:36 |
| rumpsy | r3za: make some clear question | 09:37 |
| r3za | toastedmilk: hey , for example i want to hide chat window , when i click the minimize button its hide , and in the bottom panel nothing to display it ... :( how can i fix it ? | 09:37 |

| rob_p | ke1ha: wish I could TX on HF from this location... | 09:37 |
| rumpsy | r3za: add, notification applet | 09:37 |
| StuckMojo | so... | 09:38 |
| rob_p | ke1ha: perhaps I'll get a local callsign and be able to one of these days. | 09:38 |
| ke1ha | I'm testing testing Lucid for AX25 .. thinking about porting N1MM to Linux. | 09:38 |
| rumpsy | r3za: goto panel and rightclick to select add to panel, and add notification area | 09:38 |
| ericjames | so.. I have this tablet button that has a picture of a toolbox. in windows w/ lenovo drivers it brings up a shortcut menu for volume brightness etc. I want to map it to the super key or alt key, something useful (as i only have a couple buttons in tablet mode) | 09:38 |
| seamarshall | ok now that I have my server fixed. When I try to upload to joomla i receive this error "Permission denied in /var/www/libraries/joomla/filesystem/file.php on line 298". Anyone know whats going on with this error? | 09:38 |
| r3za | rumpsy: no , its not right | 09:38 |
| koltroll | if one have draged "stiffness" on wobbly windows up to max, so that any active windows jumps around like crazy.. what would be solution be? | 09:38 |
| koltroll | "a friend did it". | 09:39 |
| ericjames | the problem it, linux calls it xf86ScreenSaver (identical to fn+f2) | 09:39 |
| ericjames | and it locks the screen.. | 09:39 |
| anao | hello, which paket includes singlemode admin console?? | 09:39 |
| rumpsy | r3za: what? | 09:39 |
| Myrtti | anao: how come? | 09:39 |
| ericjames | so, though I can map it to whatever, it still always locks the screen. | 09:39 |
| rob_p | ke1ha: I'm stuck on IRLP (into a dummy load) until I can get back on HF. At least I can keep in touch with part of the ham community this way. | 09:39 |
| ke1ha | seamarshall, do an ls -al on the directory and tell me what it gives you back | 09:39 |
| rumpsy | r3za: check for notification applet on your panel, if not add that | 09:39 |
| Myrtti | anao: you mean the recovery console you can get to from the bootloader menu? | 09:39 |
| r3za | rumpsy: its dosent do :( | 09:40 |
| PingFloyd | koltroll: what do you mean? | 09:40 |
| ericjames | any way I can prevent this? (i don't care if fn+f2 works, I just dont want to lock the screen) | 09:40 |
| anao | if i boot into single mode the blue repair dialog is show which paket? | 09:40 |
| ke1ha | rob_p, yeah, Echo-Link is a good optioin also as is eQso | 09:40 |
| rob_p | ke1ha: I'm not familiar with Lucid but I know AX25. | 09:40 |
| seamarshall | ke1ha: which directory? www? | 09:40 |
| koltroll | PingFloyd, well I changed an advanced setting on the wobbly windows so that the window is just jumping around like crazy, totally deformed. And I like to fix it :) | 09:40 |
| rumpsy | anao: why you went to single mode? | 09:40 |
| ke1ha | no, the dir that's failing, full path | 09:40 |
| Myrtti | anao: you're not making any sense. Why do you want to know? if you're trying to remove it, you'll break the system | 09:41 |
| rob_p | ke1ha: Yeah, I run that too. My node does both Echolink and IRLP. | 09:41 |
| ke1ha | or you could just do this chmod 775 -R /www | 09:41 |
| PingFloyd | anao: what are you trying to do? | 09:41 |
| rumpsy | anao: you should not enter in single mode take our advice ! | 09:41 |
| ericjames | any ideas about how to disable xf86ScreenSaver key? | 09:42 |
| PingFloyd | koltroll: will it let you change at the same place? | 09:42 |
| rumpsy | r3za: got that thing? | 09:42 |
| koltroll | PingFloyd, I can't change anything now since any active window starts jumping around like crazy => | 09:42 |
| Myrtti | rumpsy: there are valid usecases for recovery mode, telling people not to use it is a bit strange | 09:42 |
| PingFloyd | koltroll: I see | 09:42 |
| PingFloyd | koltroll: that's in gnome? | 09:42 |
| koltroll | PingFloyd, KDE actually | 09:43 |
| ke1ha | seamarshall, you probably changed ownership of the directory .. and when the web-server tries to use it, it can't because of the ownership | 09:43 |
| r3za | rumpsy: yes , here it is notification area , but it didnt fix my problem | 09:43 |
| PingFloyd | koltroll: not sure for kde, but gnome you could use the gconf-editor from command line | 09:43 |
| seamarshall | ke1ha, so I need to do chown on it? | 09:43 |
| ericjames | toastedmilk: did you see those messages? | 09:43 |
| ke1ha | I dont it's hard to say from this end, I'd nuke the folder and reinstall the joomla as it sets the right permissions how it needs it. | 09:44 |
| koltroll | PingFloyd, thanks, I googled for gconf-editor for kde and found that it's "kwriteconfig". | 09:44 |
| rumpsy | Myrtti: is these are common, recovery mode and single mode? | 09:44 |

| Firas | BT4 | 09:49 |
| koltroll | PingFloyd, :) | 09:49 |
| knxville | Firas, Do you mean Backtrack 4? If, it does only support usb wifi cards when in virtualbox. | 09:49 |
| Myrtti | !backtrack | Firas | 09:49 |
| ubottu | Firas: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 09:49 |
| dragonheart | what package to I put releated to install CDs? | 09:49 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: you would use apt-get | 09:49 |
| rumpsy | Firas: again, bt4? what is that? | 09:49 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: are you running a firewall on anywhere? | 09:49 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: not sure if there is a meta-package for it or not, but you could try apt-cache search lxde | 09:49 |
| dragonheart | what package to I put releated to install CDs? (in relation to putting in a launchpad bug) | 09:50 |
| Firas | BT4 = Backtrack 4 | 09:50 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, i already did, but as default my ubuntu goes into KDE, and KDE is broken, so it stoped gdm and went into terminal. now i would like to go to LXDE GUI | 09:50 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy: Nope. I stopped the firewall in Firestarter but still it wouldn't connect. | 09:50 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, sorry man, i had to go to the bathroom. lemme scroll up | 09:50 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: to see any possible lxde related packages. If you want the full blown lxde environment, you'll probably want to find the one that pulls in all the other lxde related dependencies, you can use apt-cache show for that | 09:50 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: but windows connects fine your saying? | 09:51 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: you should be able to choose lxde for you session one of the gdm menus | 09:51 |
| tonsil | Yeah. | 09:51 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, that's way out of my league | 09:51 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, sorry :/ | 09:51 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: is this two seperate hosts with 2 seperate IP's that would need to seperate forwarding rules on the NAT side? | 09:51 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, it worked going into LXDe session, i stoped gdm and then enter startX in teminal, and it went into LXDE GUO | 09:51 |
| toastedmilk | ericjames, good luck though! | 09:51 |
| rumpsy | SolarisBoy: hey :) | 09:51 |

| SolarisBoy | rumpsy: yes i am,, tired this morning =) but well,, and your self? | 09:52 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, it looks like that for default gdm session there is KDE GUI, can i change this to LXDE? | 09:52 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: yeah, there should be an option to select which type of session you want as default | 09:53 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: right there in the gdm login screen | 09:53 |
| rumpsy | SolarisBoy: yeah good i'm .. | 09:53 |
| kubanc | how do i logout from KDE in terminal window to go into login screen? | 09:53 |
| Cybertinus | how can I add modules for Grub2 to load during boot? | 09:53 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy: I didn't do any port forwarding in Windows but spotify works there. I can connect to spotify before. I don't know what happened as to why I can't connect anymore. I don't remember changing any settings. I found this thread but it didn't really work for me: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1035338 | 09:53 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: if you logged into kde through startx, then you'll just want to shutdown kde | 09:54 |
| SolarisBoy | oh thought you mentioned something about forwarding ports... | 09:54 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, the only thing i see in KDE is black screen with a little white terminal, so i need to exit KDE from terminal | 09:55 |
| rumpsy | SolarisBoy: me? | 09:55 |
| SolarisBoy | you can test if that port is available by telnet to the port 'telnet $lanIP 8070' | 09:55 |
| tonsil | I forwarded ports in this PC that runs Ubuntu but not the one in Windows, SolarisBoy. | 09:55 |
| lksj | . | 09:55 |
| ericjames | anybody have any idea how one might go about disabling the screensaver/screen lock event triggered by the xf86ScreenSaver key? | 09:55 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: are you in a VC or in a terminal in KDE? | 09:55 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: you mean you accepted connections on the ports no? forwarding the port locally on the box or to elsewhere would be diff.... | 09:55 |
| rumpsy | SolarisBoy: you continue, i'll be back | 09:56 |
| SolarisBoy | rumpsy: k | 09:56 |
| fabian | morning | 09:56 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, what is VC? But i thing i am i terminal in a KDE. can i see in terminal which GUI am I using= | 09:56 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: VC is virtual console i.e. alt-f1, alt-f2 etc. | 09:56 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: are you behind a router? | 09:56 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy, frankly I don't really know much about this. I just went to the configuration site of my router (192.168.x.x) and opened the ports there. | 09:57 |
| tonsil | Yes, I am. | 09:57 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: you may need to additionally open the port on that router | 09:57 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, no no, i put command /etc/init.d/gdm start into terminal, and this is were it took me | 09:57 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: didn't the login come up? | 09:57 |
| fabian | Can apps start on a specific Desktop (eg Desktop 3)? | 09:58 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, if i satart X server from VC it works fine | 09:58 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy, how do I do that? | 09:58 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, no it didn't | 09:58 |
| peol | Howdy. I've set up a custom screenshot script and bound it to <Super>z -- the script is called (I see the notify-send cmd notification), however, my scrot does not seem to be running. Anyone had issues with this? I tried adding DISPLAY=:0 scrot -s ... but to no avail. | 09:58 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: the outside world doesn't see 192.168.x.x the port may very well be open to devices on your LAN however beyond the NAT router this will be the issue because you need to open a port on the public NATd IP.. | 09:58 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: I think understand, you ran gdm from within terminal in kde? | 09:58 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: do you have a linksys/netgear router or are you behind the ISP provided device? | 09:58 |
| tonsil | I have a Linksys router. | 09:59 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: find the web interface to the router which generally listens at the routers IP address and reachable by http in your browser,there may be an option depending on your model to forward ports to the internal IP address | 09:59 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, no no, if i reboot computer, i do not see login windows, it gets me directly to (probably) KDE in which i can only see a black background and a 1/4 of the screen is a white terminal | 09:59 |
| === andrew_ is now known as Guest28452 | ||
| tonsil | Thanks, SolarisBoy. I'll just do some googling around. | 10:00 |
| Guest28452 | sweet | 10:00 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: in general most linksys place them selves on x.x.x.1 so typing that into your browser URL should take you to the router admin GUI | 10:00 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: sounds like it is starting via startx instead of gdm if that is the case | 10:00 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: np | 10:00 |
| xfact | Anybody can helpme, where to get the regional language output keyboard for launchpad translation? | 10:00 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, but if i start xserver from terminal windows (alt-f1) it gets me directly to LXDE, which is working fine | 10:00 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: if you installed lxde from the package in repo, it should create a session entry in gdm | 10:01 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: this may give some assistance http://www.dnsexit.com/support/knowledge_base/router/Linksys-2.htm | 10:01 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, I think it's the problem with KDE, so what i wanna to do is to set by default to go into LXDE and not KDE | 10:01 |
| lksj | kubanc:1 | 10:01 |
| PingFloyd | lksj: please don't PM me | 10:02 |
| Magick211 | 192.168.1.1 is default for linksys | 10:02 |
| SolarisBoy | there you have it | 10:02 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: in gdm, the default behavior is that once you select a different session, it should ask if you want to make it default | 10:03 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, can i see in terminal which GUI am i using right now? | 10:03 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: so after you install say lxde, there should be a new entry for it in gdm menus. When you choose a different one than the current default (say were usually running kde, but this time chose lxde) it should ask if you want to make it the default session. | 10:04 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: you can, but that isn't what you want | 10:04 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, yes i agree, but how do i get to login window? | 10:04 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: you shutdown the current DE/WM you're in | 10:04 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: choose logout | 10:05 |
| PingFloyd | or you can kill it X | 10:05 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy, I think that's similar to what I did earlier. Here's a screencap: http://imgur.com/xNupz.png | 10:05 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: at the login screnn, there is a word called, option click that and choose your own | 10:05 |
| rumpsy | screen* | 10:05 |
| kubanc | rumpsy, i do not see login screen right now | 10:05 |
| SolarisBoy | Server not found | 10:06 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: logoff.. | 10:06 |
| fatum | How do you go about adding more desktop sides on kde 4.4? (for the cube) | 10:06 |
| kubanc | rumpsy, ctrl+alt+shift doesn't get my into login windows | 10:06 |
| kubanc | rumpsy, how do i logoff in terminal window? | 10:06 |
| SolarisBoy | ;> you sure that web server isn't behind the linksy too? =) | 10:06 |
| ke1ha | kubanc, rumpsy assuming you ahve more than one desktop installed. | 10:06 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: exit | 10:06 |
| PingFloyd | sounds more like you're in a console | 10:06 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: if you are in terminal, start GDM | 10:07 |
| ke1ha | just do an init | 10:07 |
| SiHa | Hello.. Is there any way to allow root login to gui in ubuntu 9.10? :) | 10:07 |
| kubanc | rumpsy, lol, the only thing i needed to put into terminal was exit and it put me into login window | 10:07 |
| metaleks | SiHa, just use gksu nautilus | 10:08 |
| metaleks | in terminal | 10:08 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: tonsil that link isn't working | 10:08 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: sounds like you were in a minimal session that just starts a terminal instead of a WM/DE | 10:08 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: that is the command to logout, lol | 10:08 |
| gheddy-zarc | was trying to login to here the other day and I got "Software" incompatibilty issues wha the hey is that about ? I could get into Dalnet or Urchat servers and effnet etc but freenode chucked me eh any clues ? | 10:08 |
| Magick211 | What link? | 10:08 |
| SiHa | metaleks, ehm.. what? :P | 10:08 |
| kubanc | rumpsy, you want so say XTERM session? | 10:08 |
| metaleks | type "gksu nautilus" in terminal to have graphical root access | 10:08 |
| dallis | SiHa: Yepper. Something like Systen -->Administration --> login win- aw crap, they've changed it... Sorry. | 10:09 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: ctrl+alt+backspace | 10:09 |
| SolarisBoy | http://i.imgur.com/xNupz.png <-- that one does | 10:09 |
| PingFloyd | rumpsy: what's lame is that key combo is disabled by default :( | 10:09 |
| PingFloyd | rumpsy: easy to change, but imho it makes more sense to have that key combo available by default | 10:10 |
| kubanc | rumpsy, i fixed it now, it looks like i was in Xterm session, and i also tried ctrl+alt+backspace but it didn't work to go into login session. the only thing that worked, is, that i put "exit" into terminal, and then i changed my GUI, and now it works. | 10:10 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: that looks correct have you saved the settings and tried rebooting the router? | 10:10 |
| PingFloyd | rumpsy: kubanc's situation is a good example | 10:10 |
| ter35 | Hi | 10:10 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy: Yeah. I did earlier. Before I came here. It didn't work though. | 10:11 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: also ensure you aren't using dhcp and the address is diff... | 10:11 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: This is what i was telling you o_O | 10:11 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, thanks for helping me | 10:11 |
| kubanc | rumpsy, yes, thank you for helping me | 10:11 |
| ter35 | How to give ip Address from a file in ubuntu | 10:11 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: you're welcome | 10:11 |
| rumpsy | kubanc: :D . . happy day | 10:12 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: lxde is a great DE for lower end systems | 10:12 |
| ke1ha | quesiton is, how did he get to the console, was it by accident or intention ? | 10:12 |
| dallis | SiHa: Have you tried clicking 'other' and logging in as root that way? | 10:12 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: I definitely recommend it for older systemss | 10:12 |
| SiHa | dallis: yup.. Did not work though | 10:12 |
| SiHa | But the gksu is what I need | 10:12 |
| rumpsy | PingFloyd: but gnome is also good for older system.. | 10:13 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy: I just checked Network Connections and the connection I'm using right now has AUTOMATIC (DHCP) in the ipv4 Settings Method. What should I change it to/ | 10:13 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, yes, that's why I installed LXDE. i tried lubuntu, but there is no installation . so i installed Kubuntu, and then LXDE. now the only thing i need to do is delete KDE | 10:13 |
| dallis | SiHa: Ah. Glad I could pretend to help. | 10:13 |
| PingFloyd | rumpsy: I like gnome, but it tends to be a bit more demanding relatively speaking | 10:13 |
| silv3r_m00n | I have 4 sheets in an excel file , in open office can I merge them all ? | 10:13 |
| SiHa | Hehehe.. thanks for the pretended help dallis | 10:13 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: I think there is a meta-package for lubuntu iirc | 10:13 |
| papsh | silv3r_m00n, cut and paste? | 10:14 |
| teage | kubanc: isnt it possible to install ubiquity within the live cd? | 10:14 |
| dallis | Hm... I don't like irssi showing my username.... | 10:14 |
| silv3r_m00n | papsh: the sheets are big | 10:14 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: 1. check for an option in your DHCP server to reserve a static address for that MAC address on your ubuntu and make it always be the one thats forwarded... 2. set a static IP on a host you would like to forward any ports to from the linksys | 10:14 |
| SiHa | and thanks metaleks | 10:14 |
| silv3r_m00n | but column structure is same | 10:14 |
| ke1ha | silv3r_m00n, wrong channel, but yes you can, same way as Excell. | 10:14 |
| SolarisBoy | 1 or 2 | 10:14 |
| teage | kubanc: as you are using it i mean? | 10:14 |
| ericjames | anybody have any idea how one might go about disabling the screensaver/screen lock event triggered by the xf86ScreenSaver key? | 10:15 |
| SolarisBoy | then im tired... | 10:15 |
| kubanc | teage, ubiquity, don't know what this is, sory :( | 10:15 |
| teage | kubanc: its the installer | 10:15 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: I know I read something about that somewhere, one sec | 10:15 |
| ter35 | HI | 10:15 |
| ter35 | anyone there | 10:15 |
| al_ | time to try something new - any wine gurus here? I need to install it | 10:15 |
| SolarisBoy | and again,,, tonsil i forget is the windows and ubuntu two seperate hosts physically or a dual boot? | 10:15 |
| Slart | ter35: yes.. about 1333 of us here | 10:16 |
| Slart | !welcome | ter35 | 10:16 |
| ubottu | ter35: 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! | 10:16 |
| ke1ha | 1334 people's are here :-) | 10:16 |
| tonsil | two separate hosts, SolarisBoy. | 10:16 |
| kubanc | teage, probably the only thing to install ubuntu with LXDE, is to install ubuntu without GUI and then install LXDE | 10:16 |
| ter35 | HI' | 10:16 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: Im suspecting the Ubuntu IP isn't x.x.x.102? | 10:16 |
| ter35 | HOw to change ip address from file in ubuntu | 10:16 |
| RudyValencia | Hi, how do I install a beryl theme in Ubuntu 9.10? | 10:16 |
| ke1ha | kubanc, have you tried the server install, then add only the desktop you want ? | 10:17 |
| Slart | ter35: have a look at the file /etc/network/interfaces | 10:17 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: there's lubuntu-desktop package | 10:17 |
| teage | kubanc: worth a shot though, pop the cd in, hop online, open terminal and apt-get install ubiquity | 10:17 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy, I just checked ifconfig and it said x.x.x.102. | 10:17 |
| SolarisBoy | heh | 10:17 |
| Slart | ter35: or you can run "ifconfig" manually.. that will be reset when you reboot though | 10:17 |
| k1ko | hey :) anyone tried flashdevelop under wine here? | 10:17 |
| Slart | !appdb | k1ko | 10:17 |
| ubottu | k1ko: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 10:17 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil try this just for kicks... "sudo iptables -nvL" | 10:17 |
| ke1ha | installing any desktop distro adds a ton of things that are nto essential. | 10:18 |
| ter35 | auto lo | 10:18 |
| ter35 | iface lo inet loopback | 10:18 |
| kubanc | teage, hm, this is what i didn't know :D... | 10:18 |
| ter35 | whats it | 10:18 |
| incorrect | i am using openvpn and resolvconf, if i start my openvpn client i get an error message saying /etc/resolv.conf is not a a symlink, is there any way to get network manager to play nice with resolvconf? | 10:18 |
| Slart | ter35: man interfaces will tell you more about that file | 10:18 |
| ernz | Hi room. Can anyone here answer a noobish bash scripting question for me please? (I have tried RTFM) | 10:18 |
| bubulein | hi, i have a strange problem with stting up a wlan card. i short summeray can be found here http://pastebin.org/90555 , i hope someone could gimme a tip ho to solve th | 10:18 |
| Slart | ernz: go ahead | 10:18 |
| ter35 | man ????? | 10:18 |
| Slart | ernz: you'll know soon enough if we can answer or not =) | 10:18 |
| Slart | ter35: in a terminal you write "man interfaces" and you'll see the manual for that file | 10:19 |
| ernz | Slart: Thanks, can I pm you please? | 10:19 |
| Slart | ter35: it works for other commands as well.. | 10:19 |
| SolarisBoy | Slart: and other config files | 10:19 |
| SolarisBoy | =) | 10:19 |
| Slart | ernz: it's usually better if you ask the question in the channel.. you'll get better answers that way.. but you're welcome to use pm if you want | 10:19 |
| Myrtti | ernz: please ask in the channel | 10:20 |
| Slart | SolarisBoy: hehe.. indeed.. and source functions and whatnot.. =) | 10:20 |
| SolarisBoy | yeps | 10:20 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy: Didn't work. I'm still figuring out how to do the first option you mentioned earlier. Where do I configure my DHCP or know which static address to use? | 10:21 |
| ernz | Slart/Myrtti: I know how people get about pasting lines and lines, so here is a pastebin of the offending script: http://pastebin.ca/1794450 | 10:21 |
| IncrediblePie | Does anyone here know of a graphical IM client that supports SASL? | 10:21 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: i recalculated my opinion when you told me the IPaddress is the same as that in the screenshot | 10:21 |
| Slart | ernz: at a first glance.. try putting the directory name in quotations | 10:22 |
| Myrtti | ernz: I'd personally replace every $variable with "${variable}" | 10:22 |
| Myrtti | ernz: and add the hashbang if it already doesn't | 10:22 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: dhcp should work as static would if the ip addressing is correct,, which you say it is,, unless the linksys has some function to _NOT_ forward to DHCP clients... which i can't confirm.... | 10:22 |
| ernz | Slart/Myrtti: I shall do both. Which quotes should I use? ` or ' or "? | 10:23 |
| Myrtti | ernz: " | 10:23 |
| ke1ha | IncrediblePie, i know irssi does, but i dont know about GUI, have you checked Pigin ? | 10:23 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: if you have no iptables rules and port 4070 or whatever is in fact open && being forwarded thru the linksys,,, i got nothin =) | 10:23 |
| Myrtti | ernz: though " and ' are somewhat interchangeable, but out of habit I personally use " because they are more visible | 10:23 |
| ke1ha | One of them does, I saw it the other day, or at lease OpenPGP anyway/ | 10:24 |
| tonsil | It's probably a problem with the spotify servers. It seems to be a common error for Ubuntu users/ | 10:24 |
| tonsil | Thanks anyway, SolarisBoy. | 10:24 |
| SolarisBoy | np | 10:24 |
| kubanc | is it OK, if i uninstall al the packages for KDE, to remove KDE from my system? | 10:24 |
| IncrediblePie | Ke1ha: Yeah, I'm using Irssi right now (I don't like it too much), and when I tried to set the flag to enable SASL for Pidgin it didn't seem to work. It installed, but it was still not being detected by freenode. | 10:25 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: some sites or web apps process headers and the client information to work,,, i guess its possible the app doesn't like browsers on ubuntu OS, it does call audio functions and such as it appears its a music site,,, | 10:25 |
| ke1ha | rr . yeah, none of them are really well suited for the purpose, as the nature of what they do is insecure to begin with. | 10:25 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: yeah, but make sure you remove the top-most package with tool of choice, then let the package manager resolve the dependencies from there | 10:26 |
| Davedan | how can I find out how many open TCP connections I have | 10:26 |
| tonsil | SolarisBoy, it used to work just a few days ago. I know some people who can still run it in Ubuntu. | 10:26 |
| IncrediblePie | *sigh* Think mIRC will run with Wine...? | 10:27 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: there may be some packages that some of they apps/software you keep that has some dependencies in common | 10:27 |
| SolarisBoy | tonsil: =@ | 10:27 |
| SolarisBoy | Davedan: use netstat | 10:27 |
| Davedan | SolarisBoy: I'll read about it. thanks | 10:27 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: if you're not hurting for hard drive space, I personally wouldn't bother | 10:27 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: memory only gets used for what gets loaded which means what you need | 10:28 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, yes i saw, i am looking in the description of the program, if it is a program for KDE, that it should go away, and YES, it's bothering free space on my disk drive | 10:28 |
| ernz | Slart/Myrtti: haha: close! It worked all apart from one thing. my mkdir -p "~/Desktop/${proj}/_backups/${proj}_bkp_${filedate}"; created a "~" directory! I'm not really familiar with the ~/ shortcut. What am I doing wrong there? | 10:28 |
| SolarisBoy | Davedan: np | 10:28 |
| Slart | ernz: hmm.. ~ usually means the home folder | 10:28 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: I'd look and see which package, but I'm not in ubuntu right now | 10:28 |
| Slart | ernz: as in /home/ernz or whatever your username is | 10:29 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: probably kubuntu-desktop | 10:29 |
| Myrtti | ernz: $HOME/Desktop/"${proj}"/_backups/"${proj}"_bkp_ etc | 10:29 |
| ernz | Slart: Yea, that's what I thought too | 10:29 |
| Bravewolf | does bibd9, by default configuration, open tcp and udp port 53 also to the external world? | 10:29 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: which is a meta package that in turn depends on kde and some other niceties. Keep in mind that it may want to remove your DM too, so you might want to make sure you keep gdm/kdm/xdm or whatever dm you're using on there | 10:30 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, i uninstalled package kubuntu-desktop with apt-get remove, and it said that it will only remove 53.2 KB | 10:30 |
| IncrediblePie | Oh, and by the way, has anyone managed to properly set up an ATI Radeon HD 4650 AGP card in 'buntu? I tried on my desktop but it didn't work to well at all with video. Seemed as if it was still using vesa or something (it wasn't). | 10:30 |
| nysis | Hi. I have sporadic freezes with Intel 845G Video driver. I use Ubuntu 9.10, everything worked fine until one day after a usuall package update my system periodically freezes. Any bugfix to this issue? Is it an intel driver or kernel issue? | 10:30 |
| SolarisBoy | Davedan: FYI; 'sudo netstat --tcp -pno' should do the trick | 10:30 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: see what kubuntu-desktop depends on | 10:30 |
| knxville | Is there any clamav channel on freenode or any other server? | 10:31 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: also you can try apt-get autoremove to clean out the orphans left over | 10:31 |
| ke1ha | there's also a deborphan app that cleans house too. | 10:31 |
| Davedan | SolarisBoy: trying. thanks | 10:31 |
| SolarisBoy | np | 10:31 |
| paddy_melon | knxville, yes, #clamav>> /join #clamav | 10:32 |
| knxville | paddy_melon, i found out.. I need to try my self some time before asking ;) | 10:32 |
| ernz | Slart/Myrtti: YEA! Rocking and rolling now guys. Thanks both for your help, now I can backup my crappy web apps in *style*! 3 Internet points to the both of you. Enjoy your day. | 10:32 |
| ke1ha | kubanc, also, you can free up space with localepurg too, as it clears all the lang files you dont want. | 10:32 |
| Slart | ernz: *pst | 10:32 |
| paddy_melon | knxville, so true | 10:32 |
| wstephenson | how do those orphan tools work, do they identify every leaf package as a possible remove? | 10:32 |
| Slart | ernz: *pst*... not guys.. | 10:32 |
| ericjames | where does ubuntu keep THE xmodmap file? i see that there are many in /usr/share/xmodmap, but I'm looking for the one that's being used, not the choices for different layouts etc.. | 10:32 |
| knxville | paddy_melon, ;) | 10:32 |
| PingFloyd | wstephenson: in theory :) | 10:32 |
| Slart | ernz: but you're welcome | 10:33 |
| ernz | Slart: You've lost me. | 10:33 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, apt-get autoremove didn't to anything | 10:33 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: you probably have to remove kde package itself too | 10:33 |
| SolarisBoy | ke1ha: is localepurg available on 8.10? | 10:33 |
| kubanc | PingFloyd, i am already doing this | 10:33 |
| SolarisBoy | oo found it =) | 10:33 |
| ernz | Slart: ? | 10:33 |
| PingFloyd | kubanc: look at the dependencies of kubuntu-desktop as a guide | 10:33 |
| kubanc | I hope i won't messed up my LXDE | 10:33 |

| llutz | ericjames: xsession should read that | 10:41 |
| ikonia | koltroll: "mount" will do it | 10:41 |
| koltroll | ikonia, something that has a gui | 10:42 |
| root51 | compatible to karmic? | 10:42 |
| PingFloyd | koltroll: mount with loop option | 10:42 |
| ericjames | llutz: appreciated. | 10:42 |
| ikonia | root51: yes, but do you REALLY want to start patching your grb package ? | 10:42 |
| root51 | can create background in boot loader | 10:42 |
| ke1ha | that gets to be a pain if you want to update your distro. | 10:43 |
| ikonia | root51: it can, but I would strongly advice against patching grub | 10:43 |
| PingFloyd | mount file.iso /path/to/mountpoint -t iso9660 -o loop | 10:43 |
| koltroll | PingFloyd, but there's gotta be some nice gui tool for this. | 10:43 |
| koltroll | I'm to old to be using the terminal. | 10:43 |
| PingFloyd | then you can access it from the mountpoint | 10:43 |

| root51 | so what i can do | 10:44 |
| ikonia | root51: without patching it, nothing | 10:44 |
| root51 | how to patch | 10:44 |
| ke1ha | when you say background, are you talking about the splash image ? | 10:44 |
| PingFloyd | koltroll: seems like nautilus will do it transparently if you have dbus/hal installed | 10:44 |
| ikonia | root51: if you have to ask - don't, more so when you are talking about your boot loader | 10:44 |
| root51 | i talking about boot loader | 10:45 |
| root51 | grub loader | 10:45 |
| ke1ha | if yeah, the splash image when it's booting right ? | 10:45 |
| wstephenson | is anyone using an explicitly set $KDEHOME here with 4.4? if so could you check if $KDEHOME/share/apps/nepomuk is using it or ~/.kde? | 10:45 |
| ke1ha | Isn't that just a zipped image that's like 640x480 ? | 10:46 |
| ikonia | ke1ha: if grub is patched for image support | 10:46 |
| ke1ha | rrr. yeah, it's gotta have that. but changing the actual image is simple enough. | 10:47 |
| ke1ha | typically though, I dont mess with boot-loaders, that a sure fire way to break things. | 10:48 |

I had a perfect installation of debian for a year or so and then I installed winXp on another partition because I had to use this program (yes, yes, I wanted to play games) and it deleted GRUB ofcourse. Well it happened before I guessed. But this time I can't restore it... | 10:52 |
| root51 | not available | 10:53 |
| PingFloyd | root51: what error? | 10:53 |
| DhavalMake | llutz: thanks | 10:53 |

| schmrz | Myrtti: Yes, but this is a bit of a weird situation. Debian is installed on the HDD but I'm trying to reinstall GRUB using Ubuntu 9.10 Live CD. | 10:55 |
| schmrz | So, I'm not really sure where to ask for help :\ | 10:56 |
| Myrtti | schmrz: the problem with your thing is that ubuntu 9.10 comes with grub2 by default | 10:56 |
| schmrz | And I should get 9.04 ? | 10:56 |
| DhavalMake | ke1ha: yaa but it can stop just for this time whenever i'm start my laptop bluetooth has been on again | 10:56 |
| ericjames | so i successfully changed keycode 160 = XF86ScreenSaver NoSymbol XF86ScreenSaver NoSymbol XF86ScreenSaver' to '160 = Super_L NoSymbol Super_L NoSymbol Super_L' , however the key still locks the screen and X server reports MappingNotify events to xev when I press this key (-_-); | 10:57 |
| schmrz | Myrtti: I have also tried installing Lilo but I'm getting an error when trying to use chroot. | 10:57 |
| Myrtti | schmrz: is using Ubuntu live disk what the Debian people suggested? | 10:57 |
| ke1ha | update-rc.d then and not ahve it start in any runlevel | 10:57 |
| schmrz | Myrtti: No, it's the only live cd I had lying around. | 10:58 |
| Myrtti | schmrz: perhaps you should really look into what the debian peeps suggest for doing in your case | 10:58 |

| nfd | erUSUL: Broadcom BCM4322. It shows up in the output, I just don't see anything related to the driver. | 11:37 |
| TimothyA | well, iptables didn't work either! | 11:37 |
| DaemonFC | steve777, You'll need to change your apt sources to Jaunty, dist-upgrade, change them to Karmic, and dist-upgrade again | 11:37 |
| cgc | archboxman: space in the sense of hd space and in the sense of physically space | 11:37 |
| Seveas | erUSUL, you'd still need to download updates for packages not on the cd though | 11:38 |
| archboxman | cgc: understand what your aiming at just not my bag of tricks.. :) | 11:38 |
| erUSUL | nfd: you installed b43-fwcutter? (while connected to internet via a wired connection) | 11:38 |
| steve777 | ok cool | 11:38 |

| DaemonFC | steve777, You can probably just change all references in /etc/apt/sources.list from Intrepid to Jaunty, save it, update, then do it again changing Jaunty to Karmic | 11:38 |
| DaemonFC | :) | 11:38 |
| nfd | erUSUL: Negative, haven't seen anything about that. I suppose I...should? :) | 11:39 |
| DaemonFC | skipping a release makes things complicated :) | 11:39 |
| erUSUL | nfd: once b43-fwcutter is installed do « sudo modprobe -r b43 && sudo modprobe b43 » | 11:39 |
| erUSUL | nfd: you should yes. the driver needs the firmware to work. Broadcom does not let anyone distribute the firmware. all linux user of broadcom wifi are F***ed up | 11:40 |
| DaemonFC | I actually just updated a system from Edgy :) | 11:40 |
| ke1ha | typically, I use that loosly, brute force attaches are on SSH ports, like 22, you chane the port and do somthing like this: | 11:40 |
| DaemonFC | that was, interesting | 11:40 |
| ke1ha | iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m recent --set \ | 11:40 |
| ke1ha | --name SSH -j ACCEPT | 11:40 |
| erUSUL | nfd: send an ungry email to its support | 11:40 |
| ke1ha | iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m recent --update --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 --rttl \ | 11:40 |
| ke1ha | --name SSH -j LOG --log-prefix "SSH_brute_force " | 11:40 |
| erUSUL | nfd: or better yet do not buy broadcom hardware ;) | 11:41 |

| DaemonFC | erUSUL, Broadcom has open source firmware now for most chipsets, Fedora ships it | 11:42 |

| erUSUL | DaemonFC: that's not optimal. | 11:45 |
| DaemonFC | no, it's not closed source firmware and it's not ndiswrapper | 11:45 |
| DaemonFC | there's open source firmware for at least the 43xx series that works fine | 11:45 |
| FunkyWeasel | Can anyone help me, or am I just doomed to have to reboot once a week due to rubbish sound support? | 11:45 |

| fabio | im not an expert on pc. middle user. | 11:48 |
| fabio | i want it to work out of the box | 11:48 |
| DaemonFC | fabio, It's kind of borderline | 11:48 |
| archboxman | DaemonFC: Mine comes on because network manager probes for wireless networks and some times connects to my router | 11:48 |
| fabio | :S then not good enough | 11:49 |
| DaemonFC | fabio, You'll have to install the driver from ATI themselves unless you want the buggy one that Karmic offers | 11:49 |
| DaemonFC | need to uninstall and reinstall it everytime the kernel is upgraded | 11:49 |

| StuckMojo | i thought this might be it: /var/lib/apt/extended_states | 12:04 |
| StuckMojo | but now i don't think so | 12:04 |
| archboxman | FunkyWeasel: with older hardware you usually have to aim at 1 or 2 version prior to the lastest vesion of ubuntu to find a stable driver and upgrade... For new hardware you usually have to wait for the next kernel release and maybe even ubuntu release for a working part.. This is my rule of thumb when working with ubuntu because of release dates | 12:04 |

| FunkyWeasel | archboxman: I'm pretty certain this is an older box. And I've stuck with 8.10, though I may have a swing at upgrading to jaunty this arvo to see if that helps | 12:06 |
| ernz | The tar.gz isn't a directory, so why is it included in the recursion!? | 12:06 |

| da_german | candy ...yes definitely | 12:11 |
| ke1ha | ernz, its because of the -r its recursive. | 12:11 |

| marek_ | hey guys. im trying to install medieval 2 total war. am i supposed to install directx as well? | 12:28 |
| abhijit_ | it ws my mstke i wll crrct it | 12:28 |
| Blue_Slacker86 | how i can install SkyStar2 Rev 2.8A in ubuntu 9.10 64bit | 12:28 |
| ke1ha | then you dont need a DMZ box, add a udp / tcp rout on your route to the box you want to access | 12:28 |
| erUSUL | marek_: no; shouldn't be needed but check the appdb | 12:29 |
| erUSUL | !appdb | marek_ | 12:29 |
| ubottu | marek_: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 12:29 |
| ke1ha | opps route on your router ... | 12:29 |
| rojoloco47 | ke1ha: I know little about configuring it in my modem setting its simple to give an local IP to it, But when i try to open with my DNS it redirects to my modem setting page again intead of going to my localhost | 12:29 |
| HTC | I have a Shoutcast server, but I have a program through which to connect to the server and play music for people. I installed Idjc but he stops and hears the sound is bad. Does anyone know a similar program? | 12:29 |
| abhijit_ | stevecam i dont mean to be rude. i asked "so?" because i think that whats went wrong? i menas u said u were typing and suddenly what happend? | 12:29 |
| abhijit_ | thats why i typed so? | 12:29 |
| marek_ | thanx guys will try that | 12:29 |
| archboxman | marek_: try playonlinux if unsure of setup with Wine... good luck :) | 12:30 |
| rojoloco47 | my firewall is disabled @ ke1ha | 12:30 |
| ke1ha | You need your IP address thats' assigned to your router from your ISP, then just add a virtual route on whatever port you want, say SSH port 22 ==> to 192.168.0.XX | 12:30 |
| rojoloco47 | ke1ha: setting page my firewall is disabled | 12:30 |
| chiiiiiz | Hi | 12:31 |
| tolarn | Lol stupid question. Do I need to cd to the awn file to compile it? | 12:31 |
| chiiiiiz | em again.... I am looking for a GUI for ffmpeg or mencoder... gmencoder seems not to be supported for a while... any idea??? | 12:31 |
| abhijit_ | stevecam again i am sorry for that . but it was mistake | 12:31 |
| abhijit_ | anyways | 12:31 |
| rojoloco47 | ok SSH on 22 ,can I go with this same port for webpage setting on my router page @ ke1ha ? | 12:31 |
| abhijit_ | how to change the screen refresh rate? | 12:31 |
| rojoloco47 | ke1ha: like webpage :22 | 12:32 |
| Newky | chiiiiiz: winff | 12:32 |
| chiiiiiz | OK... giving it a look.. thanks | 12:32 |
| ke1ha | rojoloco47, when whatever it is your sending inbound hits the router, if your have the udp / tcp port forward setup to a particular box, it will then route that request to the box you specify. | 12:32 |
| abhijit_ | how to change monitor refresh rate? | 12:32 |
| rojoloco47 | I got it ,let me try this I will back to you if any problem exists thanks for this great guide @ ke1ha | 12:33 |
| ke1ha | if yo dont ahve a Local ( LAN nameserver / DNS ) setup, you ahve to use the local LAN IP address, as the name something.home.com wont render. | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | I always edit my /etc/hosts to have the proper name/ip :) | 12:34 |
| djuggler | Using this command: grep -lr -e 'foo.cc' * | xargs sed -i 's/foo.cc/foo.com/g' I've been making some replacements over many many directories. However when a directory has a space in the name "sna fu" this command interprets that as 2 directories. | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | but for anything other then a small lan.. that can get to be a pain | 12:34 |
| abhijit_ | how to change monitor refresh rate? | 12:34 |
| djuggler | What do I need to change to make it recurse through directories with spaces in the name? | 12:34 |
| ke1ha | rojoloco47, if it's a web-server your addressing inside your LAN, then that's probably Port: 80 or 8080 .. no 22 | 12:34 |
| rojoloco47 | Server Name Protocol External Port Internal Port Server IP Address WEB TCP/UDP 22 22 192.168.0.3 | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | djuggler: You may want to use an actual script and some how tack on extra quotes around the dirctory name when passing it to the sed command. | 12:35 |
| djuggler | good call | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | djuggler: at least thats the normal way to do it some how add some quotes | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | spaces in file/dir names = bad juju :) | 12:35 |
| rojoloco47 | Ok I try it with 8080 this time @ ke1ha | 12:35 |
| ke1ha | rojoloco47, are you tryign to render a web-page or you wanting an SSH tunnel to this box inside your LAN ? | 12:35 |
| djuggler | spaces in file/dir names == previous developer | 12:35 |
| djuggler | and agreed | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | djuggler: i recall some 'gres' command/script that did replacements in files. | 12:36 |
| abhijit_ | how to change monitor refresh rate? | 12:36 |
| rojoloco47 | i am trying to access my localhost (webpage) ovr the internet @ ke1ha | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | djuggler: but i forget where i even saw it at. as an example i think in some using bash/sed/awk/regular expressions book perhaps | 12:36 |
| Kismet | anyone any idea why my hard drives won't show up in nautilus and even usb plugged in hard drive won't be there automatically | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: ive had issues in the past where some times when i plug in a usb hd it dosent 'auto mount' - also if its ntfs - its possible theres an error with the ntfs filesystem. so the system refuses to mount it. | 12:37 |
| djuggler | cool. I used to work magic with sed grep and awk and now I barely remember how to spell them. | 12:37 |
| djuggler | Tiem to dust off the references | 12:37 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, it is an ftp drive | 12:37 |
| Noble | You know what pisses me off? When I edit a config file, and ubuntu does not use it any more. Does ubuntu not use xorg.conf anymore? | 12:38 |
| ke1ha | rojoloco47, do you ahve a web-server running on the local box inside your LAN ? | 12:38 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, to be clear internal one hard drive 2 partition both ftp | 12:38 |
| Kismet | usb one ftp and other ntfs | 12:38 |
| Kismet | i can mount both manually | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: a ftp drive? huh? how are you plugging that in? :) Or do you mwan you are using the gnome 'connect to server...' feature? | 12:38 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, i meant fat sorry | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: :) ok that makes more sence then. Ive had similer issues all through beta. Even now i have it where thumbdrives automount for a while.. then stop.. if i log out/back in - they start automounting again. | 12:39 |
| Kismet | fat32 | 12:39 |
| rojoloco47 | yes I have configured LAMP server on my ubuntu machine ,for testing purpose I have install joomla (web software) on it (localhost) now I want to access it over internet | 12:39 |
| rojoloco47 | @ ke1ha | 12:39 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, the thing is they don't mount at all | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: but ive only had those issues on 1 of my 3 machines.. Im not sure whats going on with it. but if i let it run for a while (like a day) and plug in flash drives. they never automount. | 12:40 |
| Kismet | usually i could see the internal drives... but scince i did something.. can't remember what.. it won't work | 12:40 |
| abhijit_ | how to change monitor refresh rate? | 12:40 |
| Dr_Willis | for an internal drive. You may as well add a proper fstab file entry. | 12:40 |
| ke1ha | rojoloco47, then if you added the port forwaed correctly on your router, point it at your router's IP address with an http://IP-ADDRESS | 12:40 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, the thing is i am on a laptop IMB where i can change the internal drive with an cd rom drive | 12:40 |

| Kismet | Dr_Willis, don't think i should put it in fstab | 12:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: cdrom would use /dev/cdrom hd would use /dev/sd?? or whatever by UUID - so it shouldent matter. | 12:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: you could use the 'noauto' option where it dosent try to mount it at boot time. but you could just do 'sudo mount whatever' and have it mounted | 12:42 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, even if i don't have it lugged in all the time... | 12:42 |
| rojoloco47 | yes I have account with hosting "hostmonster.com" I have cPanel, in that cpanel I have give my internet Ip address to a subdomain of mine i.e http://secure.sajidsaif.com , But this time when I am trying to open this domain its taking too much time in loading @ ke1ha | 12:43 |
| Shardok | http://tinyurl.com/249rjg | 12:43 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, not lugged i meant plugged | 12:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: yes. thats wht noauto is all about. use the 'user, or 'users' option and then a user could mount the device even | 12:43 |
| walle_ | hi, does anyone know how i can obtain a list of security updates for a ubuntu system as an unprivileged user (ie. unable to run apt-get update)? | 12:43 |
| ke1ha | rojoloco47, that's a different deal all together, are you trying to render you hosting server web-page, or the web pages your created at home ? | 12:44 |
| Kismet | hmm.. Dr_Willis so i should write it in fstab wit noauto | 12:44 |

| tolarn | Soul are you still around? | 12:47 |
| sulumar | just wanted to tell you. I installed the "nouveau" driver and the problems are fixed | 12:47 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, but you don't have a solution for the usb drive which won't be mounted automaticaly | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: ive never figured out why its doing it. Had issues since beta.. others seem to have similer issues. Id almost wonder if its not some gnome service crashing. | 12:48 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, hmm... maybe i have to live with it and mount it like old shool | 12:49 |

| abhijit | Slart my current refresh rate is 60hz but i read in ubuntupocket guide that it shold be 75 for lcd | 12:57 |
| abhijit | thats why i want to manualy want to change it | 12:58 |
| DaemonFC | abhijit, You shouldn't, refresh rate doesn't really matter on an LCD like it does on CRT | 12:58 |
| Slart | abhijit: the ubuntu pocket guide doesn't know what refresh rate you should be running at.. it's limited by the graphics card and your monitor | 12:58 |
| DaemonFC | jsut leave it at 60 | 12:58 |
| abhijit | ok. thnx daemonfc and slart | 12:58 |
| oKtosiTe | Hey all. I need to mail someone a USB stick with a live system that contains a confidential filesystem image. What's my best encryption option for being able to pipe said filesystem image to the harddisk of the recipient? | 12:59 |
| abhijit | thnx DaemonFC & Slart | 12:59 |
| abhijit | by | 12:59 |
| DaemonFC | yep | 13:00 |
| Slart | abhijit: you're welcome | 13:00 |
| Slart | oKtosiTe: I'm no expert at this but I would start looking at truecrypt for starters | 13:01 |
| Slart | !truecrypt | oKtosiTe | 13:01 |
| ubottu | oKtosiTe: Truecypt is a free open-source on-the-fly disk encryption software. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TruecryptHiddenVolume | 13:01 |
| oKtosiTe | ubottu: I'll have a look. My intention is to write a script that does this automatically upon clicking a desktop icon, ideally it will only give a brief explanation (in a terminal) and prompts for a password. The main limitation is that the USB stick will not be able to hold an unencrypted version of said image, so I need to be able to pipe the output directly. Thanks. | 13:03 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:03 |
| oKtosiTe | Slart, even | 13:03 |
| oKtosiTe | excuse me | 13:03 |
| thomc | Thumbnails for video files are not showing up in Nautilus - any ideas? | 13:03 |
| xerophyte | deos anybody know why does the apt-get hangs saying Processing triggers for man-db ? | 13:03 |
| Slart | oKtosiTe: so basically you want a script that does file -> unencrypt -> dd to a hard drive partition ? and perhaps ask for a password somewhere along the line | 13:04 |
| eurisko | hi there i am using Ubuntu 9.04, and i just have done some updates, and some users i have recently added just can't login anymore on the gdm login window someone have any clue? | 13:06 |
| eurisko | i can't find any info and the var/gdm | 13:07 |
| oKtosiTe | Slart, even more: file | unencrypt | ungzip > /dev/xyz | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: what happens when they do try to login? | 13:07 |
| eurisko | nothing it just returns to the username field | 13:07 |
| Slart | oKtosiTe: hmm.. well.. this is linux.. there probably is a command line tool that does that.. I've never really looked into it though.. | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: the question is.. is it logging in, then X crashing.. or is it instantly just saying login failed or somting | 13:08 |
| ke1ha | Ok, we're back, got the whole Home Web-Server thing sorted out for rojoloco47 :-) | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: you could see if they could login to a different window manager/desktop such as icewm as a 'test' | 13:08 |
| BluesKaj | Hey all | 13:08 |
| oKtosiTe | Slart, but yes. Scripting shouldn't be an issue. I've written several interactive bash scripts before, but have little experience with encryption beyond having run a fully encrypted Debian laptop for a while. | 13:08 |
| Slart | oKtosiTe: ccrypt looks promising.. | 13:09 |
| Slart | !info ccrypt | oKtosiTe | 13:09 |
| ubottu | oKtosiTe: ccrypt (source: ccrypt): secure encryption and decryption of files and streams. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7-11 (karmic), package size 69 kB, installed size 252 kB | 13:09 |
| eurisko | Dr_Willis, it doesn't say login failed or anything, it just returns to the username field. i ve tried also a kde session but the same beahavior ocurred. i've tried to do the login on tty1 and it worked. is there any file with logs from gdm that registers failed login attempts? | 13:09 |
| DaemonFC | http://bit.ly/ca7YQ9 | 13:09 |
| DaemonFC | that's just wrong | 13:10 |
| rojoloco47 | yes ke1ha you are great teacher Sir | 13:10 |
| oKtosiTe | Slart, thanks, diving into it in 3... 2... 1... | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: perhaps in /var/log an interesting test would be to use KDM instead of GDM and see if it fails/works there | 13:10 |
| orkun | hi! when i answer with evolution, the auto quote gets to be "blabla wrote:" - which is the language of my karmic installation. how would i localize that? i prefer english language, but those i reply to don't | 13:10 |
| eurisko | hum ok i'll try with the kdm login . | 13:11 |
| * DaemonFC hates Evolution | 13:11 | |
| * DaemonFC uses Thunderbird | 13:11 | |
| PingFloyd | there's also xdm and slim as well | 13:11 |
| ascheel | Is there a way to permanently block a package from updating in synaptic/apt-get? Perhaps a blacklist? | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Then theres a few other *dm alternatives besides those :) but thats getting extreme | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | !pin | ascheel | 13:12 |
| ubottu | ascheel: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 13:12 |
| PingFloyd | slim is kind of nice if you want something ultra-light, but when I used it, it seemed to pause a long time due to a bug | 13:12 |
| PingFloyd | that was a long time ago though, and on a different distro | 13:12 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: Thanks. :) Looking into it now | 13:12 |
| Cybertinus | hello | 13:13 |
| chadi | i have a incorrect shutdown. USB devices remain on after shutdown. How can I fix this problem? | 13:13 |
| PingFloyd | I did like its easier to follow configuration files though | 13:13 |
| Inquiry | Does anyone want the headache of walking me through wireless network configuration in Ubuntu 9.10? | 13:13 |
| Inquiry | Common, it'll be fun. | 13:14 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: That doesn't really seem to apply to me. In my case, I use xscreensaver instead of gnome-screensaver. Any time I upgrade gnome-screensaver, it disables the changes I've made so xscreensaver will run. | 13:14 |
| * eurisko brb | 13:14 | |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: just remove gnome-screensaver - i did that in the past.. | 13:14 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: do you use gnome? I've read that it also forces a removal of gnome-desktop | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: if you pin gnome-screensaver to some older version then it wont upgrade it.. so im not sure what you are doing | 13:15 |
| ascheel | sorry ubuntu-desktop | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: thats just a meta-package. | 13:15 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: ah, I see your logic now. | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: so its not a big big deal really | 13:15 |
| PingFloyd | ascheel: you're wanting to use gnome-screensaver or xscreensaver? | 13:15 |
| oKtosiTe | Slart, thanks for your help. Looks like ccrypt is exactly what I needed. Spot on! | 13:15 |
| Inquiry | Can anyone at least direct me to a resource for explaining wireless network configuration in Ubuntu that doesn't assume I already know how to do what I'm trying to do? | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: i Have seen sokme forum threads on xdcreensaver vs gnome-screensaver. | 13:15 |
| Slart | oKtosiTe: nice.. hope it works out for you | 13:16 |
| ascheel | lol xscreensaver is already working just fine. | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: and i will hbe the first to admit - Gnomescreensaver stuff needs serious work. :) | 13:16 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: I hate not being able to configure my screensavers. Hate it. | 13:16 |
| PingFloyd | I use powersaving myself | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: and the gnome devs seem to think configring your screen saver is too 'hard' for users. :) | 13:16 |
| oKtosiTe | :) | 13:16 |
| ascheel | PingFloyd: wanting to use xscreensaver (and it's already running great right now) | 13:16 |
| PingFloyd | dpms off | 13:16 |
| Inquiry | Yeah, screensavers are so much harder to deal with than networking configuration. : ) | 13:16 |
| da_german | The Answer to all your questions is simply: 42 !! | 13:17 |
| blip- | how can I install gdm themes for xubuntu ? guides on the net talk about using some sort of gui but I don't seem to have that.... even though i do use gdm | 13:17 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: aye and it's been argued time and time again with no change of heart | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: check out the gnome threads on the topic some time. its amazing silly | 13:17 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: I have and I agree. | 13:17 |
| DS | hello | 13:17 |
| Cybertinus | I installed my entier Ubuntu Server 9.10 install to /dev/sda3. Now I've created /dev/md0p1 (yes, that is software RAID). I've copied everything to that partition. Now I need to edit Grub2 to boot from a different partition. How? :). Which file do I need to edit in what way to make Grub2 boot from a different partition? | 13:17 |
| DS | how do you set the directory in terminal wasnt it cd | 13:17 |
| Inquiry | da_german: I'm not looking for the meaning of life, the universe, and everything. I'm more high-minded than that: trying to set up wireless networks. | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: I Imagine what will happen sometime. will be the Ubuntu devs will just start ignoreing the gnome devs and put the features in anyway. | 13:17 |
| iceroot | DS: with cd you change into a directory | 13:18 |
| iceroot | DS: cd /etc will bring you into the directory etc | 13:18 |
| DS | iceroot: yes that it is do you type cd /home..etc | 13:18 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: I've been hoping so. IMO just give it xscreensaver but modify the password screen so it's 'gnome'ie | 13:18 |
| iceroot | DS: you can use ~/ instead of /home/username | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont even bother with screensavers much any more. Just bank and be done. | 13:19 |
| ascheel | iceroot: you can just type 'cd' to go to your home. No arguments | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | a Nice RSS reader/news/weather screensaver would be handy | 13:19 |
| koolhead11 | hey iceroot | 13:19 |
| iceroot | ascheel: nice to know | 13:19 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: probably not very difficult, either. | 13:19 |

| Myrtti | pirx: yes. | 13:22 |
| Cartman | lol | 13:22 |
| pirx | Myrtti: but i want it in one command, otherwise i can just as well manually ssh from host1 to host2:) | 13:22 |

| Range_500 | we are not all prix @ ascheel | 13:24 |
| Range_500 | oh pirex | 13:24 |
| Range_500 | sorry | 13:24 |
| pirx | ascheel: i want to ssh to host1 and automatically be ssh'd further to host2 | 13:24 |
| ascheel | pirx: And you're 100% absolutely positive it can't be achieved with a single tunnel? | 13:25 |
| ascheel | Oh, you don't want to tunnel, you just want a regular ssh session | 13:25 |
| ke1ha | set up a ip forward in sshd and use id_rsa keys for auth. | 13:25 |
| iceroot | pirx: use portforwarding (iptables on host 1) so you can use ssh -p 122 user@host1 and you will get to host2 | 13:25 |
| ardian | How to setup a static ip address in ubuntu ? | 13:25 |
| iceroot | pirx: and with ssh user@host1 you will get into host1 | 13:25 |
| iceroot | ardian: with what? gui? ifconfig? /etc/network/interfaces? | 13:26 |
| ascheel | ardian, use the network-manager and set up a new connection with the IP you want | 13:26 |
| pirx | iceroot: not allowed by firewall | 13:26 |
| ardian | no gui | 13:26 |
| ardian | thanks iceroot | 13:26 |
| ke1ha | that's probably a good thing actually prix | 13:26 |
| ascheel | pirx: here's a way to do it. On the first host you connect to, set up a script that just 'ssh host2.address' | 13:27 |
| ascheel | pirx: then run a command like this: ssh host1.address /path/to/script/to/connect/to/host2 | 13:27 |
| ke1ha | Yeah, use rsa keys and "ssh -l sombade@host2" | 13:27 |
| Inquiry | Okay, here's an easy one. Surely, someone wants to tell me what to do here. Got my wireless working. Can't connect due to permissions restrictions. the needed interface buttons are grayed out. How do I fix this? | 13:27 |
| ascheel | ke1ha: get rid of that -l | 13:28 |
| Lusule | hi there, does anyone know a linux program i could use to keep track of urls when i copy clips from webpages during research? onenote has a feature which does just that but i can't find the linux equivalent | 13:28 |
| ascheel | ke1ha: that -l is used when you don't use @ | 13:28 |
| ascheel | so either ssh -l sombade host2 or ssh sombade@host2 | 13:28 |
| ke1ha | rr .. but you wont be able to auto connect if port forward on host1 is not allowed | 13:28 |

| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 14:02 |

| BluesKaj | Guest_53601, not as anon as he thought ..lives outside of Chicago | 14:57 |
| PingFloyd | zilkomaa: then chown is the proper tool for that. Keep in mind that if you want multiple users to have access to it, then you'll probably want to setup a group appropriately and add the appropriate users to that group | 14:57 |
| PingFloyd | zilkomaa: chmod as well | 14:57 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, then all you need to do is share a directory / folder on one of them | 14:57 |
| dylan | setfacl is also a good solution to that problem. | 14:58 |

| zilkomaa | PingFloyd: hehe rly? | 15:04 |
| eurisko | aed and poo | 15:04 |
| eurisko | but for example i tried ttt and it worked | 15:04 |
| lfaraone | eurisko: that's really odd, actually. I've no idea. | 15:04 |
| PingFloyd | zilkomaa: I believe so, I usually do it through the command line, but I could swear that you can go into properties of the directory and change ownerships recursively | 15:04 |
| cinex | is umask per user or per directory? | 15:05 |
| kazmi | hello How to remove windows partion virus through ubuntu | 15:05 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba | 15:05 |
| eurisko | i also have tried deleting and adding the accounts but no way... | 15:05 |
| lfaraone | cinex: per shell session, iirc. | 15:05 |
| PingFloyd | zilkomaa: thought I recall seeing it somewhere in there | 15:05 |
| lfaraone | kazmi: you want to /join ##windows | 15:05 |
| cinex | kazmi: delete the virus file. then when in windows you need to delete the viruses startup entrys in the registry (otherwise you will get error messages when you start it ) | 15:05 |
| cinex | lfaraone: I have a media directory and I want it to save files with a certain permissions so that the group can access it. do I need umask or will it just copy the parent directory? (/home/Media) | 15:06 |
| eurisko | in ubuntu is better to add the users using the graphical utility or using adduser comand line utility? | 15:07 |
| xmine | hello | 15:07 |
| cinex | eurisko: whichever you're comfortable with | 15:07 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, this may be better for you to follow: http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/SAMBA_Filesharing | 15:07 |
| robertzaccour | which is better between java and openjdk? | 15:07 |
| lfaraone | cinex: well, you can chmod the files afterwards. | 15:07 |
| xmine | i've updated a minute ago kde 4.4 (not to 4.4) and after or while updaing the screen went black and i have a blinking server - i'm in the console now | 15:07 |
| cinex | eurisko: if you ever intend to add users remotely you should learn the commands | 15:07 |
| kazmi | my win-xp is currupt and cant install antivirus | 15:07 |
| zilkomaa | PingFloyd: Ok thank you for your help. | 15:07 |
| ikonia | eurisko: it really doesn't matter | 15:08 |
| xmine | what can i do? any help would be appreciated | 15:08 |
| === xmine is now known as xMine | ||
| PingFloyd | zilkomaa: you're welcome | 15:08 |
| eurisko | cinex, i am asking this because those 2 users where the only users that i created using the comand line but now i can't use them | 15:08 |
| ikonia | 1suwhat is the error ? | 15:08 |
| zilkomaa | PingFloyd: Was such a fight yesterday with that thing in my mothers computer huhu .. | 15:08 |
| lfaraone | eurisko: that probably isn't the cause of your problem. | 15:08 |
| ikonia | oos | 15:08 |
| cinex | lfaraone: I dont want the users to have access to that command... and I dont want to have to constantly eddit those files. If I set the umask in rc.local or the systemwide profile files it would change the umask for all files? | 15:08 |
| ikonia | ericm: what is the error when you try to use them | 15:08 |
| eurisko | besides /etc/passwd is there any file where ubuntu can keep user info? | 15:09 |
| cinex | eurisko: did u set a login shell and a home directory? | 15:09 |
| robertzaccour | which is better between java and openjdk? | 15:09 |
| ikonia | ughh, sorry | 15:09 |
| eurisko | yeah | 15:09 |
| ikonia | eurisko: what is the error when you try to use them | 15:09 |
| eurisko | no error appears | 15:09 |
| lfaraone | cinex: umask only affects new files, but yes. | 15:09 |
| ddavids | i need help | 15:09 |
| ikonia | eurisko: what happens, does it not let you login ? | 15:09 |
| eurisko | gdm just goes back to username | 15:09 |
| PingFloyd | zilkomaa: what do you mean? Was she being hard headed? | 15:09 |
| eurisko | but in tty i cna login | 15:09 |
| eurisko | *can | 15:09 |
| ddavids | i need help... | 15:09 |
| usuario__ | olaa tonto | 15:09 |
| lfaraone | eurisko: okay, that would be useful to know. | 15:09 |
| eurisko | kdm does the same | 15:09 |
| cinex | eurisko: cat ~/username/.xesessionerrors | 15:09 |
| ikonia | eurisko: ok - so thats going to be probably a lack of write permissions to the home dir | 15:09 |
| lfaraone | !helpe | ddavids | 15:09 |
| alankila | robertzaccour: the sun java, the openjdk is unmaintained | 15:10 |
| lfaraone | !helpme | ddavids | 15:10 |
| ubottu | ddavids: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 15:10 |
| cinex | eurisko: cat ~/username/.xesession-errors | 15:10 |
| archboxman | demonspork: /part | 15:10 |
| usuario__ | you are silly | 15:10 |
| ikonia | eurisko: the desktops need to be able to write tot he home dir | 15:10 |
| zilkomaa | PingFloyd: No no i that mount thing was so hard to get it to work | 15:10 |
| ikonia | usser: ? | 15:10 |
| chumi | ola | 15:10 |
| robertzaccour | alankila, thanks | 15:10 |
| javito | ola | 15:10 |
| ke1ha | ddavids, what ya need help with ? | 15:10 |
| cinex | eurisko: also bad permission on /tmp can cause that problem | 15:10 |

| eurisko | drwxr-xr-x 30 aed aed 4096 2010-02-12 15:10 aed | 15:11 |
| cinex | eurisko check the error log file, it will tell you whats up | 15:11 |
| alankila | robertzaccour: but I must mention that openjdk has been patched to use pulseaudio output mode, while sun java has not. It's possible to transplant the pulse extension into the sun jdk, but there's still some issues left even after doing it | 15:11 |
| ikonia | eurisko: is there disk space free | 15:11 |
| madura | global menu executes the menu item commands twice for some items(pidgin's join a chat menu item, it pops up two dialog boxes).. is there any fix? | 15:11 |
| ikonia | ericm: are there any warnings/errors when you login from teh tty ? | 15:11 |
| PingFloyd | zilkomaa: the thing to remember, is the ownerships are relative to the system. i.e. user ids may be mapped different to usernames on a different system | 15:11 |
| chumi | ola javi | 15:11 |
| ikonia | chumi: english only please | 15:11 |
| lucas71 | ke1ha, thanks, I can see another comp from my own but there is ask for password... I'm trying to write all my passwords but all are odd.. | 15:12 |

| metricpiano | is there a way to make the cdrom always mount as executable? it automounts just fine, but I would like the permission to be executable for all CDs | 15:12 |

| cinex | eurisko: did you do: cat /home/username/.xsession-errors | 15:12 |
| cinex | yet? | 15:12 |
| ikonia | ericm: I'm lagging very bad it's causing a lot of problems | 15:12 |

| ddavids | its my desktop, i didnt have sound b4 frm the internal speakers only and i had frm the headphones but 'the admin' helped and now i have from my internal speakers but when i plug the headphones i hear sounds frm both the nheadset and the internal speakers | 15:13 |
| eurisko | cinex, yes | 15:13 |
| cinex | eurisko: what did it say at the bottom? | 15:13 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, the pwd should be the pwd you set when you created the samba user, not your username password. | 15:13 |
| eurisko | cinex, i am reading it tells me something about applets | 15:13 |
| javito | illo | 15:13 |
| cinex | eurisko: google excatly what it says | 15:13 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, unless of course you made the samba user your username and pwd. | 15:14 |
| lucas71 | ke1ha, I did't create any passwords :((( | 15:14 |
| Bookman | I cannot seem to access a printer over the internet. I think I have it setup correctly and the router is forwarding port 631 to the server. | 15:14 |
| Kwpolska | hello ubunties | 15:15 |
| Kwpolska | What is the kernel modules path? | 15:15 |
| PingFloyd | metricpiano: please ask your questions to the channel | 15:15 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, thats' the problem then, you need to add a Samba user and pwd. | 15:15 |
| cinex | eurisko: you could move the gnome config folders to a new location then log in. it will reset all the users settings. | 15:15 |
| eurisko | this .xsession-errors is copy from skel , i have to delete all the content inside the user folder | 15:15 |
| Kwpolska | Where is kernel headers in nubuntu? | 15:15 |
| eurisko | and try to login again | 15:15 |
| vagvaf | any idea why dropbox and ubuntu one stop connecting suddenly? | 15:15 |
| cinex | eurisko: there is a log file in /var/logs too | 15:15 |
| eurisko | i have a preconfigured desktop i have made on /etc/skel | 15:16 |
| Kwpolska | vagvaf: your network is shutdown? | 15:16 |
| vagvaf | no it's fine | 15:16 |
| metricpiano | what do I need to change in fstab... nothing looks like a CDrom to me? | 15:16 |
| lucas71 | ke1ha, is that very difficult for newbie in Ubuntu? | 15:16 |
| Dr_Willis | hmm why would /etc/skel have a .xsession-errors file. | 15:16 |
| cinex | eurisko: tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 15:16 |
| Kwpolska | hey | 15:16 |
| Kwpolska | Where is kernel headers in nubuntu? | 15:16 |
| Dr_Willis | !headers | 15:16 |
| ubottu | To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages | 15:16 |
| vagvaf | plus i reinstalled 9.10 and the problem persists | 15:16 |
| eurisko | cinex, everything normal | 15:17 |
| * eurisko brb | 15:17 | |
| eurisko | i'll try to login again | 15:17 |
| cinex | eurisko: log in from the command line | 15:17 |
| cinex | su - username | 15:17 |
| eurisko | i can | 15:17 |
| cinex | u can what ? | 15:17 |
| eurisko | i can login in the tty | 15:18 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, in a terminal type: [ sudo smbpasswd -a $USER ] then enter a easy to remember password. | 15:18 |
| eurisko | i just can't login in the gdm/kdm | 15:18 |
| cinex | ok | 15:18 |
| eurisko | but no error appears | 15:18 |
| cinex | eurisko: ls -ld /tmp | 15:18 |
| sindhudweep | I'm getting an error using dput to upload a package to a team ppa. I'm fairly certain my .dput.cf is correct as I've used it before, but launchpad is telling me "Launchpad failed to process the upload path '~gnash':Path format mismatch." | 15:18 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: kdm has problems also? | 15:18 |
| eurisko | yeah | 15:18 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, then I always restart samba: [ sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart ] | 15:18 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: that is weird. | 15:18 |
| Whtiger | I have a 1280x1024 external monitor but I want it to be 1280x800 to match my laptop.. how can I do this? | 15:18 |
| Whtiger | I don't want to have 224 pixels off the screen | 15:18 |
| eurisko | drwxrwxrwt 13 root root | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: if you use a newly made user - does it work? | 15:19 |
| cinex | eurisko: thats good | 15:19 |
| eurisko | yes | 15:19 |
| tonyyarusso | sindhudweep: You'll be more likely to get an answer to that in #ubuntu-motu (although responses also take longer) | 15:19 |
| sindhudweep | thanks tonyyarusso | 15:19 |
| eurisko | Dr_Willis, just two specific user names doesn't work | 15:19 |
| cinex | eurisko: delete /home/username/.Xauthority | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: as a test you could move ALL their .* files/dir to some other dir.. and see if it works then | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | eurisko: or try what cinex says :) | 15:19 |
| Kwpolska | CAN SOMEONE HELP ME! | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | thats less severe | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | !ask | Kwpolska | 15:20 |
| ubottu | Kwpolska: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:20 |
| ezra-s | To use Ubuntu One do I have to copy every folder I want to synchronize into that directory? | 15:20 |
| Kwpolska | Dr_Willis: I'd tried, but NO-ONE RESPONDED ME TO THAT EASY QUESTION | 15:20 |
| Pici | Kwpolska: Please lose the caps. | 15:20 |
| Kwpolska | Where is kernel headers? vmware asks me for it | 15:20 |
| eurisko | ls | 15:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Kwpolska: actually I did!headers | 15:20 |
| eurisko | ups | 15:20 |
| Dr_Willis | !headers | Kwpolska | 15:20 |
| cinex | Kwpolska: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 15:20 |
| ubottu | Kwpolska: To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages | 15:20 |
| * eurisko brb | 15:21 | |
| Dr_Willis | Kwpolska: examine the package details top see where it installed stuff if you need to find them | 15:21 |
| eurisko | no luck | 15:21 |
| nutzer8787 | joo | 15:21 |
| cinex | Kwpolska: apt-cache search kernel-headers | 15:21 |
| eurisko | this is a mistery... | 15:21 |
| lucas71 | ke1ha, I've done it, but my new password still is odd | 15:21 |
| nutzer8787 | hellooo | 15:21 |
| Kwpolska | i have this inszttalled... | 15:21 |
| Fawzib | question: i have a linux server connected to my wireless dsl modem (modem is dhcp server). in my linux server I have a router card. i want to be able to connect comps to the router card and redirect traffic to go out of the server main lan card which is connected to the dsl modem. how would i accomplish that? | 15:21 |
| cinex | eurisko: move the home directory to /home/meh | 15:21 |
| nutzer8787 | i will cookies | 15:22 |
| cinex | mkdir /home/username | 15:22 |
| cinex | set the permissions and relogin | 15:22 |
| ke1ha | lucas71, what do you men "odd" it's not allowing you to browse to the folder ? | 15:22 |
| cinex | eurisko: chmod 777 /home/username (after recreating) | 15:22 |
| Kwpolska | Vmware tools want to me type the path. what is it? | 15:22 |
| cinex | eurisko: this is a test, the permissions cant stay like that | 15:22 |
| nutzer8787 | hii | 15:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Kwpolska: use synaptics -> search for kernel-headers, check package details to see what it installed where. | 15:23 |
| cinex | Dr_Willis: are they not in build essentials ? | 15:23 |
| julio | hi there | 15:23 |
| ke1ha | It normally puts them in /tmp | 15:23 |
| Dr_Willis | cinex: no. | 15:23 |
| cinex | oh | 15:24 |
| Dr_Willis | !headers | 15:24 |
| ubottu | To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages | 15:24 |
| cinex | Kwpolska: the bot has said that twice now | 15:24 |

| dnivra | hello. I'm using winFF to convert video to audio. when i try to convert flv files, it says "unknown encoder libmp3lame". I checked that the package "libmp30lame" is installed. what is wrong? | 15:32 |
| cinex | dnivra: maybe you need another lame package | 15:33 |
| cinex | apt-cache search lame | 15:33 |
| dnivra | cinex, lame package for mp3? | 15:33 |
| usser | dnivra, you need ffmpeg packages from medibuntu default ones dont have mp3 and other restricted codecs | 15:34 |
| cinex | dnivra: yeah, I k now there is one called twolame | 15:34 |
| Asad_ | Is it safe to 'defragment' a drive using windoze utilities that contains both ntfs and ext3 partitions? | 15:34 |
| cinex | libtwolame0 | 15:34 |
| cinex | Asad_: last time i checked windows couldnt even see ext3 | 15:34 |
| histo | Asad_: as long as you are only defragmenting the ntfs partition | 15:34 |
| Asad_ | yeah ... only ntfs... | 15:34 |
| histo | Asad_: it shouldn't be able to see the ext3 part. | 15:35 |
| Asad_ | yea it doesn't see it .. but was just wondering if it could mess up anything | 15:35 |
| histo | Asad_: it shouldn't | 15:35 |
| Asad_ | ok cool :) | 15:35 |
| Kazuha | Also, I'm pretty sure partitions are mostly static. | 15:35 |
| dnivra | cinex, libtwolame0 is already the latest version. | 15:35 |
| cinex | dnivra: what about twolame ? | 15:35 |
| dnivra | usser, I'll check those out too. thanks. | 15:35 |
| dnivra | cinex, installing twolame now. | 15:36 |
| cinex | there is plain old lame too | 15:36 |
| ascheel | lame > all | 15:36 |
| cinex | what program are u using dnivra ? | 15:36 |
| dnivra | cinex, winFF. | 15:37 |
| usser | dnivra, you dont need twolame | 15:37 |
| usser | !medibuntu | dnivra | 15:37 |
| ubottu | dnivra: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 15:37 |
| cinex | you could try sudo apt-get build-dep winff | 15:37 |
| dnivra | usser, sure medibuntu restricted codecs will work right? | 15:37 |
| vanesa_fajardo_v | vanessa | 15:37 |

Someone said add a line to fstab to make it automount as executable, but I can't use the specific name of the cd (QVXTR) as the mount point in fstab because it only exists for that CD... there is currently no line in fstab for the drive (only ext4 and swap)... what is an appropriate line for an executable dvd-rw drive to be added to fstab to make au | 15:40 |

| eurisko | i'll read the thread | 15:44 |
| eurisko | brb | 15:44 |
| dnivra | usser, is there some package in which all these codecs will be installed? The medibuntu repo is added to my sources list. | 15:44 |
| usser | chiiiiiz, the above one will take care of spaces | 15:44 |
| cinex | nandor: its in the system settings (I only know how to find it in kde) | 15:44 |
| usser | dnivra, you need libav*-unstripped packages | 15:44 |
| nandor | Cinex: I have Gnome | 15:44 |
| chiiiiiz | OK, I tried with : rename 's/[-:,...]//g' *.wmv | 15:44 |
| chiiiiiz | ... but it also removed the '.' before the wmv extension.... :-( | 15:44 |
| dnivra | usser, thanks | 15:45 |
| usser | chiiiiiz, and im not sure what your situation with ... that has to be dealt specially because of the extensions | 15:45 |

| nandor | I think you dont understand :D I had a small module wher can I log off, etc in 1 button, but now I can find a turn off button :S | 15:46 |
| ikonia | ouyes: I would strongly advise against building glibc | 15:46 |
| Ubershutze | Hello everyone XD | 15:46 |
| ikonia | cinex: it's called libc in ubuntu | 15:46 |
| ouyes | ikonia, why? | 15:46 |
| cinex | nandor: on the taskbar? I think thats an applet | 15:46 |
| nandor | on the panel | 15:47 |
| nandor | yes :) | 15:47 |
| ikonia | ouyes: it's a critical part of the system that a LOT depends on for stability and compatability | 15:47 |
| cinex | nandor there is a way to to add applets, i just dont know it | 15:47 |
| chiiiiiz | usser: I have download from a TV channel loads of programs (Arte TV in France), but the videos are in wmw, that I must transcode in avi to be able to play them with my multimedia hard disk... problems is that the names include the dates, time, and lots of characters that my mencoder command line does not understand | 15:47 |
| ddavids | i wantto use winff but i when i try to convert avi to mp4, it just keeps going on forever. what can i try? | 15:47 |
| blakkheim | ddavids: does it happen when you just use ffmpeg? | 15:48 |
| nandor | cinex but it is disappeared, after setup it was there | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | chiiiiiz, have you considered using ffmpeg instead of mencoder ? | 15:48 |
| ikonia | chiiiiiz: rename them or look at eape chars | 15:48 |
| cinex | nandor: try right clicking the taskbar and see if it says 'add applets to panel' or something like that | 15:48 |
| nana | OLA | 15:48 |

| ddavids | im sorry but i dont seem to understand ur question, winff just start at the command line when i press convert and it just keeps dropping lines of codes and never stops... | 15:53 |
| trism | ouyes: it downloads all the code for the c library and unpacks it in the current directory, if you want to see the code for any specific function, you will need to grep for it | 15:54 |
| trism | ouyes: or use an editor with ctags support | 15:54 |

| demonic | How can I get rid of the evolution-alarm-notify, it came with the fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 | 16:20 |
| kaddi | jumar: ok. I'm using wicd and it's working great. I've had trouble with network manager and wpa2, that is why I switched, in the past. So I guess it may be relevant. Not sure if it is a solution to your problem | 16:20 |

| Guest27922 | hello there, i have a problem here with X: the screen sometimes becomes unreadable, with destroyed patterns, i must alt tab or minimize maximize to get something back again, it s a weird problem and i don t really know here to begin | 16:38 |
| cinex | can someone confirm that 9.10 has no xorg.conf ? | 16:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | cinex, not by default | 16:38 |
| irfan_ | cinex: now what ? | 16:38 |
| lost_in_edmonton | you have to create it | 16:38 |
| cinex | irfan_: do u have a restricted hardwear driver in the restricted hardwear driver application ? | 16:39 |
| irfan_ | no | 16:39 |
| Guest27922 | i also have a question: how does perform a netbook compared to a pentium III laptop? | 16:40 |
| irfan_ | it's just for windows | 16:40 |
| cinex | irfan_: you could try installing xserver-xorg-video-intel | 16:40 |
| cinex | i hate there being no xorg.conf | 16:40 |
| Guest27922 | i have an old laptop; i read they are slow sluggish etc. But i d like to know whether i ll still feel a speed improvement or not | 16:40 |
| llutz | Guest27922: most netbooks should be faster | 16:40 |
| irfan_ | how can i do it ? | 16:40 |
| cinex | irfan_: in the xterminal run the command: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel | 16:41 |
| Guest27922 | llutz: ok so the asus 1201n ith nvidia ion should perworm well then? will i notice a NICE difference? | 16:41 |
| irfan_ | i have done | 16:41 |
| cinex | irfan_: just now or already before? | 16:41 |
| Guest27922 | i can feel a nice diff between a PIV laptop and a intel core 2 duo... | 16:41 |

| irfan_ | just now | 16:41 |
| cinex | irfan, try logging out an in. then come back here | 16:42 |
| Guest27922 | epinky: ok cool. good news then | 16:42 |

| Pici | lost_in_edmonton: regarding vbox issues: I've not had any problems with virtualbox on any of the platforms I've run it on. For more specific help you could try asking in #vbox | 16:46 |
| cinex | michael_: install guarddog | 16:46 |

| cinex | hi irfan_ | 16:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | nomic, as zicada said "in theory yeah" - you'll probably have less issues if both graphics cards are the same make - trying to use two different drivers could get ugly - best of luck man (would put my 2 monitor setup to shame) | 16:48 |
| irfan_ | yes em trying | 16:48 |
| michael_ | cinex: i have no computers with linux exept this though | 16:48 |

| jojojo | hi! | 16:48 |
| cinex | michael_: if u mess it up its going to need a 'head' because you will be locked out over ssh | 16:48 |
| irfan_ | i think em doing wrong | 16:49 |
| michael_ | cinex: i know.. thats why i want someone to "Ok" it :) | 16:49 |
| irfan_ | or could not understand properly | 16:49 |
| Pici | michael_: The iptables gurus are in #iptables, probably best to ask in there. You could always use ufw if you want something easier. | 16:49 |
| cinex | michael_: there are nuff iptable resources online. find one and learn it. once you know that, your salary could jump 20k a year | 16:50 |
| cinex | irfan_: what dont you understand ? | 16:50 |
| irfan_ | i try that command but error was that could not open | 16:50 |
| crazygir | hiya hiya! I'm not sure if this question is better suited to #httpd, but the default config in ubuntu is pretty specific, so I thought I'd start here: I am trying to setup apache vhosts. I copied the default vhost configuration for a new vhost and added the ServerName directive so that apache knows how to work that out. Apache didn't like this: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerN | 16:51 |
| jojojo | hello i've a question about vmware someone know how to use this software for network configuration ? | 16:51 |

| eurisko | finally | 16:51 |
| cinex | woohoo | 16:51 |
| eurisko | it was my fault | 16:51 |
| cinex | eurisko: what was wrong ? | 16:51 |
| assembler | ikonia, why its written everywhere "PythonCard is a GUI construction kit for building cross-platform desktop applications on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, using the Python language." ? | 16:52 |
| eurisko | i had a script at gdm/postlogin | 16:52 |

| Danb5854 | hi all | 16:53 |
| Pici | crazygir: That FQDN message is only a warning, its not stopping apache2 from starting. You can add entries into /etc/hosts for each of your domains so it stops complaining though. | 16:53 |
| abstrakt | anyone know how to add php5-pdo-mysql under 9.10 ? | 16:53 |

| crazygir | Pici: oh.. I've never had to add FQDN's to /etc/hosts for apache before. is that not somethign that can be setup properly in apache? | 16:56 |
| krishna_36 | tell how to do so | 16:56 |
| krishna_36 | i will tell | 16:56 |
| crazygir | I'm a little more used to apache in BSD | 16:56 |

| Danb5854 | ZykoticK9, i have a S3 ProSavage PM133 | 16:57 |
| cinex | eurisko: why not remove their passwords? | 16:57 |
| krishna_36 | This is my sound card details | 16:57 |
| demonic | Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash.

| crazygir | Pici: thanks | 16:57 |
| eurisko | and that way they don't password to login | 16:57 |
| eurisko | cinex because i don't want them to change them | 16:58 |
| eurisko | i want it to have pass, but no require to login | 16:58 |

| ZykoticK9 | Danb5854, ya thanks - i had to google what a "prosave pm133" was - S3, i have never dealt with them before so i have no idea -- best of luck | 16:58 |
| cinex | eurisko: deny access to /usr/bin/passwd | 16:58 |
| crazygir | next question, where is the "proper" place (in ubuntu) for vhosts (as a DocumentRoot) ? | 16:58 |
| eurisko | good point | 16:58 |
| cinex | irfan_: sudo apt-get remove | 16:58 |
| Danb5854 | ZykoticK9,ok thanks | 16:58 |
| cinex | irfan_: why are u removing it ? | 16:58 |
| irfan_ | but you was told me like that | 16:58 |
| cinex | irfan_: u need to use sudo to get permission. you also need to only remove it if it breaks your system somehow - graphics are tricky | 16:59 |
| irfan_ | how | 16:59 |
| Pici | crazygir: I hate to keep redirecting you to different channels, but the folks in #ubuntu-server would probably be the best people to answer. #ubuntu tends to be more Desktop oriented. | 16:59 |
| abstrakt | anyone know the best way to get php5-pdo ? | 17:00 |
| abstrakt | i just googled it and the forums say that there is no PDO support... if this is the case, I'll just custom compile PHP by hand | 17:00 |
| irfan_ | ok dear thnx to help me | 17:01 |
| irfan_ | now em trying another way to get it | 17:01 |
| crazygir | Pici: that's cool..I didn't even know about ubuntu-server | 17:01 |

| maria | hello | 17:04 |
| rothsdad | reinstall the alsa or oss | 17:05 |
| WeirdAAR | Hello, I just saw the following when install Battle for Wesnoth. "The following packages were installed and are no longer needed "20-30 names". Type sudo apt-get autoremove to remove them". What should I make of this? | 17:05 |
| armence | rothsdad, How would I go about doing that? | 17:05 |
| nibbler | WeirdAAR, copy/paste them if you are unsure, else just autoremove them | 17:06 |

| gonzalo | flipaosssssssssssss | 17:06 |
| nibbler | WeirdAAR, copy & paste them to a local textfile for future reference, or just autoremove them | 17:06 |
| gonzalo | flipaosssssssssssssss | 17:06 |
| bazhang | gonzalo, stop that | 17:07 |
| WeirdAAR | nibbler, Well if terminal suggest I remove them I guess it's because they are unused? | 17:07 |
| rothsdad | armence: you can google this : alsa ubuntu | 17:07 |
| renegaid | when I installed ubuntu I got grub legacy instead of grub 2 | 17:07 |
| nibbler | WeirdAAR, most likeley, yes. whenever a packet gets installed as dependency and not explicitly it is subject to autoremoval, once it is not directly needed anymore. but maybe you started using something of it - after all you could reinstall it easily anyways | 17:08 |
| renegaid | anyone know why this will happen | 17:08 |
| * rothsdad so tired, use gphone to input these words | 17:09 | |
| seanbrystone | is there a command that shows what files are read/writing to hard drive in real time? | 17:09 |
| WeirdAAR | nibbler, Yeah that makes sense. I just a saw a package like "libqt4-sql-mysql" and I got not sure whether to do it or not | 17:09 |
| nibbler | WeirdAAR, thats why i recommended to make a local copy+paste, so that if you miss something you have less trouble finding out the package it belongs to or whatever | 17:10 |
| WeirdAAR | nibbler, Could I be that I recently made a major update and this is the outdated packages? | 17:10 |
| nibbler | WeirdAAR, not outdated in a way taht there is newer versions of this on your system now, but outdated like in "not needed anymore" | 17:11 |
| Trick | cze | 17:11 |
| nibbler | WeirdAAR, maybe foosoft-1.0-22 needed libbar as dependecy, but with foosoft-1.0-24 this dependency is gone. | 17:11 |

| JSteinn | rothsdad, Wrong channel.. this is really not the place to let your negative feeling out. Sorry to hear though. | 17:13 |
| WeirdAAR | Btw, does anybody know if there is a MTP device (creative zen) manager native to Xubuntu? | 17:13 |
| bazhang | vng, are you installing a package? | 17:13 |
| erUSUL | vng: pkill synaptic | 17:13 |
| seanbrystone | is there a command that shows what files are read/writing to hard drive in real time? | 17:13 |

| iceroot | seanbrystone: iotop is it imo | 17:13 |
| erUSUL | WeirdAAR: banshee or rhythmbox support MTP afaik | 17:14 |
| rothsdad | ok, how to remote cotrol my ubuntu? | 17:14 |
| cinex | rothsdad: ssh | 17:14 |
| bazhang | rothsdad, with a wiimote? | 17:14 |

| WeirdAAR | erUSUL, They are based on Gnome (g++) right? | 17:15 |
| vng | bazhang, erUSUL : thank you! | 17:15 |
| nibbler | depends of what oyu want to controll.... | 17:15 |

| rothsdad | the terminal | 17:15 |

| WeirdAAR | erUSUL, Ok. I will try Banshee then. Thanks | 17:16 |

| QuaintRcky | ssh will work - enable ssh server from the ubuntu software center, then get an ssh client | 17:16 |
| vng | when I try to open Synaptic again. It's said: | 17:16 |
| vng | This usually means that another package management application (like apt-get or aptitude) is already running. Please close that application first. | 17:16 |

| rothsdad | QuaintRcky: thx | 17:17 |

| vng | bazhang: I just do the previous command pkill synaptic | 17:18 |
| QuaintRcky | I was answering about the iphone - sure ssh can do X, but not on the iPhone | 17:18 |
| QuaintRcky | vnc is probably going to be the best option there | 17:18 |
| Stevethepirate | Thats assuming his client has an Xserver | 17:18 |
| rothsdad | then how to control iphone using ubuntu? | 17:18 |
| Stevethepirate | Well, x11vnc sounds like the best. | 17:18 |

| akSeya | I found some tutorials about dnsmasq and LTSP, but they are not working with fog... | 17:31 |
| bazhang | keith_, ask the crossover people as that is not a Ubuntu issue | 17:31 |
| QuaintRcky | @cinex there is an audio group, of which pulse is a member, but it shouldn't need to be on a personal account | 17:31 |
| abstrakt | bazhang, yes already downloaded, it's in the configuration process | 17:31 |
| cinex | QuaintRcky: what group does the user need to be in to get sound ? | 17:31 |
| keith_ | Sorry Bazhang. Thanks | 17:31 |
| QuaintRcky | you could try adding audio to the user (audio is the name of the group) | 17:32 |
| akSeya | anyway.. does anyone knows how to configure dnsmasq so it works as a DHCP proxy, working with FOG (PXE boot with DRBL) | 17:32 |
| LuserN800 | I did not manage to get the new ati driver (or even now the 9.2) to work with a 4650. Anyone having this graphic card? | 17:32 |

| cinex | QuaintRcky do u have a quick command. trying to help krishna_36 but i dont know the command | 17:32 |

| bazhang | abstrakt, not sure, but the one time you dont want to interrupt is when it is configuring | 17:33 |

| abstrakt | bazhang, any idea how to get php5-pdo on 9.10 ? | 17:33 |
| cinex | QuaintRcky: that will wipe all his other groups? | 17:34 |
| abstrakt | bazhang, googling turns up that PDO doesn't really exist, since basically 6.x and doesn't seem to be different on 9.10 | 17:34 |
| GoldChaos | 'lo all! Quick question. | 17:34 |
| bazhang | abstrakt, let me do a web search on the forums | 17:34 |
| QuaintRcky | nope - it will just add that group | 17:34 |
| QuaintRcky | hope it works | 17:34 |
| LuserN800 | Is dpkg --get-selections available somewhere for karmic? I'd like to revert from lucid/karmic to pure karmic? | 17:34 |
| GoldChaos | I'm lookin' at the GetDeb repository - if I install it, will software from that repository appear in the software center, or will I have to go through the package manager? | 17:34 |
| GoldChaos | (erm, synaptic that is) | 17:34 |
| LuserN800 | Or if someone can post a dpkg --get-selections for a _pure_ karmic | 17:35 |
| abstrakt | bazhang, also are there any "standard" extras repositories? like i used to use dag/wiers back in the day... it's been years since i've run *nix as my desktop though, just getting back into the game | 17:35 |
| cinex | QuaintRcky: thanks | 17:35 |
| GoldChaos | I'm trying to get my girlfriend set up with Songbird, but if there's a way to get all the software she needs really in the software center, I'd like that :) | 17:35 |
| abstrakt | bazhang, so i dunno what the officially or semi-officially recommended repos are, if there are any. i mean aside from universe/multiverse if those aren't enabled | 17:35 |
| bazhang | abstrakt, backports and PPA ( /msg ubottu PPA) | 17:35 |
| abstrakt | but synaptic is hung so I can't very well enable them | 17:35 |
| abstrakt | bazhang, so basically I should make my own package... | 17:36 |
| GoldChaos | :> | 17:36 |
| GoldChaos | Guess I'll just try this all myself. | 17:36 |
| bazhang | abstrakt, still searching, will take more than a minute | 17:36 |
| abstrakt | aight | 17:36 |
| bazhang | GoldChaos, songbird has its own website with a deb to download | 17:37 |
| jackhorner | Hi, id like to forward a couple of ports from my host A to host B, im currently using ssh but since line is not 100% reliable on the other side sometimes i have the port open but im not able to connect, is there any workaround to this? or any simple solution, i mean simpler than using tinc or openvpn | 17:37 |
| === rusty is now known as Guest70933 | ||
| GoldChaos | bazhang: There's no deb on their site. | 17:37 |
| GoldChaos | Just a precompiled directory. It's very sloppy. | 17:38 |
| abstrakt | man this is seriously lame... i'm sorry but i have to say i'm highly disappointed in Ubuntu right now... i mean I haven't even enabled any like, non-free or other repos except for my nVidia driver... sucks that they can't even get the base packages to install right... or rather, configure right | 17:38 |
| abstrakt | and the whole reason i wanted to come to ubuntu anyway was for PHP web dev and I absolutely need php5-pdo for the projects i work with | 17:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | GoldChaos, there is also a daily build ppa https://launchpad.net/~songbird-daily/+archive/ppa for songbird | 17:38 |
| GoldChaos | I don't want daily builds - is there one for stable builds only? | 17:39 |
| zamanian | abstrakt: Are you running an alpha build? | 17:39 |
| zamanian | Because I'm not getting misconfigured packages... | 17:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | GoldChaos, if you want stable get the one from their site i'd guess | 17:39 |
| abstrakt | zamanian, don't think so... | 17:39 |
| abstrakt | zamanian, i downloaded 9.10 | 17:39 |
| LuserN800 | Is dpkg --get-selections available somewhere for karmic? I'd like to revert from lucid/karmic to pure karmic? Or can someone post on pastebin the output of dpkg --get-selections ? thanks | 17:40 |
| GoldChaos | But there isn't one from their site, that's the problem :P | 17:40 |
| abstrakt | zamanian, from the main download link... why would they put an alpha build as the main download link? | 17:40 |

| krishna_36_ | hi | 17:40 |
| abstrakt | zamanian, nope, definitely not interested in alpha or beta right now, i just need a dev server | 17:41 |
| krishna_36_ | hi | 17:42 |

| abstrakt | zamanian, actually i turned down the burn speed when i burned specifically to hopefully prevent against that happening | 17:42 |
| zamanian | abstrakt: Well isn't that ironic. :-/ | 17:42 |
| abstrakt | zamanian, and given that this software was downloaded from the net, not installed from the CD, i doubt it's the CD's fault | 17:43 |

| abstrakt | zamanian, i'd like to just CTRL-c but bazhang says it's a bad idea... and i agree that it probably is | 17:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | GoldChaos, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Songbird the are two options for DEB files there | 17:43 |
| zamanian | abstrakt: Meh. I've done it a lot of times and apt is pretty good at fixing things in my experience | 17:44 |
| zamanian | abstrakt: But maybe I've not tried to install very dependent programs. | 17:44 |
| abstrakt | k, well ctrl-c it is then | 17:45 |

| shreymech | ZykoticK9, hey can u help me in solving one more problem..?? whenever i boot or shutdown my system i see a line while booting.. "pidfile not found. is jackd running" ... what is that,,, and there it shows a red * in front of that | 18:00 |
| babo1 | ZykoticK9, i'm signed into terminal as root | 18:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | babo1, that's the problem! | 18:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | shreymech, jack is an audio sub-system of some sort - i've never used it sorry | 18:01 |
| babo1 | ZykoticK9, still doesn't work when i sign out of root | 18:01 |
| millertimek1a2m3 | hey, how might i go about changing the default ubuntu setting of logging in with sound on to logging in with sound off? i mean, no matter what I've set my sound to when I log out, it still turns the volume up when I log in... | 18:01 |
| shreymech | ZykoticK9, what is a pidfile ...?? | 18:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | babo1, are you logged into X as root? | 18:01 |
| babo1 | ZykoticK9, nope | 18:01 |
| zoink | erUSUL: i feel dumb, thanks | 18:01 |
| erUSUL | zoink: no problem. | 18:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | shreymech, pidfile is a recording of what PID (process ID) a particular program is running with - it's saying no PIDFILE most likely because the program isn't running | 18:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | shreymech, i really wouldn't worry too much about it myself | 18:02 |
| shreymech | ZykoticK9, ohkk... | 18:02 |
| Lasivian | is it possible to change the default icon spacing distance for the Gnome desktop? | 18:03 |
| babo1 | ZykoticK9, i can't open xclock | 18:03 |
| shreymech | ZykoticK9, hey man. how did u have soo much knowledge about LINUX.. whats your age.. are u a engineer | 18:03 |
| shreymech | ?? | 18:03 |
| sjefen6 | What commands sets root back to the default disabeled stage? sudo passwd root NULL ? | 18:03 |
| babo1 | ZykoticK9, i can open it as user 'babo'. but not as user 'oracle' or 'root' | 18:03 |
| babo1 | i've set the DISPLAY variable to be the same in each | 18:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | babo1, the error you're getting with xchat is saying it can't open a windows in X - most usually caused because you're trying to run it as root (which is blocked in some instances) | 18:04 |
| GSF1200S | ok, i have a serious / filesystem issue: i have an almost plainjain xubuntu install on a 40GB / partition, and its down to nearly 990MB! Things are going to get hairy if it runs out all of a sudden | 18:04 |
| babo1 | ZykoticK9, i get the same error when i try it as oracle | 18:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | babo1, you shouldn't really be trying to open ANY application as root (with only occasional exceptions) | 18:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | babo1, why are you trying to run things under different users? | 18:04 |
| vng | ne and only installed | 18:05 |
| vng | apache | 18:05 |
| vng | <QuaintRcky> sudo adduser <username> audio | 18:05 |

| Sabbel | hello | 18:05 |
| Sabbel | Is it possible to install php4 exceptly for php5 ?! | 18:05 |
| GSF1200S | why is my /dev folder 7 GB? | 18:06 |
| babo1 | no ideas ? | 18:06 |
| abstrakt | vng, yeah actually the various DB packages already contain PDO, there's no PDO specific package | 18:06 |
| shreymech | ZykoticK9, hey can i uninstall jackd ..??? | 18:06 |
| usser | GSF1200S, thats a good question. | 18:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | babo1, that doesn't seem to have anything to do with running xchat as root/oracle? I have never installed "Oracle 11g", don't even know what that is - but typically you'd run the install with "sudo" if it's a command line thing, or "gksu" if it's a graphical installer | 18:06 |
| abstrakt | vng, dunno what you were referencing or why, but Pici helped me figure it out | 18:06 |
| giuseppe_ | hi | 18:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | shreymech, ? dunno - it's not installed on my system, but perhaps something you did install requires it | 18:07 |
| abstrakt | aight thx yall, peace out | 18:07 |

| gilligan1 | hello. for some reason ubuntu 9.10 won't install at all. it seems to be unable to load the kernel after the first boot splash from the installation CD. any ideas what i can do? | 18:09 |
| GSF1200S | erUSUL: /lib/udev/ has 14 items and is 7 GB large | 18:09 |
| TheBase | Can anybody help me. I'm running a ubuntu 9.10 and the sound quality is not good. I think I have to change the sound system but I don't know how. | 18:09 |
| rlameiro | gilligan1, maybe you can change the grapgic setings | 18:10 |
| sebsebseb | Hi | 18:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | TheBase, is the sound always poor or just in certain programs? | 18:10 |
| erUSUL | GSF1200S: go there and find out who's the culprit... mine is 1.5 MiB | 18:10 |
| dagny_taggart | TheBase: I did an apt-get remove pulse-audio. I now use ALSA only and finally have sound in flash as well as other apps | 18:10 |
| TheBase | I though it was just on the browser but now I realised with mplayer is also not very good. | 18:11 |
| abstrakt | ok, so nevermind... i'm wondering if there's a recommended route for setting up apache document root(s) so that I can edit the website contents as my regular user as opposed to root | 18:11 |
| Sabrinchen | hmm | 18:11 |
| abstrakt | as in nevermind i guess i'm not done yet :) | 18:11 |
| gilligan1 | rlameiro: i tried different settings. my guess is, that my box isn't working with the kernel for some weird reason | 18:11 |
| TheBase | It works but when you have kind of load sounds it gets bad | 18:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | TheBase, be aware that dagny_taggart might have consequences, 1st you won't have a volume control on your panel - you might also have issues with browser audio after... | 18:11 |
| GSF1200S | erUSUL: nothing inside is that large.. whats the command for filesystem freespace check via cli, preferably in terms of GB | 18:11 |
| erUSUL | GSF1200S: df -hs | 18:12 |
| abstrakt | i'm well familiar with configuring apache and vhosts... just curious as to whether there's a standard method on ubuntu for allowing my regular user to edit website files... cuz afaik the standard document root for apache is owned, in fact, by root... not by my regular user | 18:12 |
| dagny_taggart | Zykotick9: You are correct, no sound applet on the panel. But so far no other consequences, it's all good | 18:12 |
| almu | hola | 18:12 |

| shane2peru | ok, trying to get my printer to print faster (use max potential) when setting up the print driver, what is the difference between hpijs pcl3 and hpijs zjs? | 18:55 |
| erUSUL | mattalexx: have you passed a fsck to the partition ? | 18:56 |
| abstrakt | trism, hmm... so i can edit the root files without root perms just by putting symlinks in my home folder? | 18:56 |
| abstrakt | that seems... odd | 18:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | abstrakt, certainly doesn't work for me? | 18:58 |
| abstrakt | ZykoticK9, er... what? i don't understand what you mean by that... what certainly doesn't work for you? and why the question mark... | 18:58 |
| zilkomaa | How i can remove unused icon from panel at places ? | 18:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | abstrakt, it shouldn't work for you either, are you using sudo before your command? | 18:59 |
| abstrakt | zilkomaa, right click | 18:59 |
| abstrakt | ZykoticK9, i'm not doing anything right now, i'm questioning the validity of trism's response to me in regards to my goals | 18:59 |
| ecolitan_ | to install ubunto over network, when setting up the bootp server, does the 'pxe' boot file just mean the .iso file? | 18:59 |
| erUSUL | !install | 19:00 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 19:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | abstrakt, sorry i'm just reacting to what i thought was a statement - the linking thing doesn't work... | 19:00 |
| trism | abstrakt: I never said anything about editing root files, you have a project in $HOME/Websites/someproject, owned, by you, you place a symbolic link to it in /var/www, and you can access it, but the directory is owned by you | 19:00 |
| zilkomaa | abstrakt: it only opens that etc if i click home folder | 19:00 |
| abstrakt | ZykoticK9, i haven't implemented his suggestion... i was questioning it heavily before i did, as i don't think he quite understands that i DO NOT want to have to use sudo | 19:00 |
| ecolitan_ | yeah i'm following that guide and want clarification | 19:00 |
| abstrakt | trism, ohhh ok, not enough info, i thought you meant the reverse, place symlinks in the home folder | 19:00 |
| zilkomaa | i mean that where is applications places system | 19:00 |
| trism | abstrakt: oh, sorry, the other way around | 19:00 |
| shane2peru | ok, does no one know of the printer drivers, zjs or plc? | 19:01 |
| abstrakt | trism, k, so i mean, why would that be any different though from just telling the vhosts to use /home/abstrakt/Websites/mysite/html as document root | 19:01 |
| trism | abstrakt: it isn't really | 19:01 |
| abstrakt | seems about the same amount of work to me... in fact it seems to just add an extra step | 19:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | shane2peru, that a pretty specific question - if there a CUPS channel you could ask in perhaps? i don't know. | 19:01 |
| zilkomaa | abstrakt: from places i want to remove named storage because there is two storage named shortcuts | 19:02 |
| abstrakt | trism, ok so that's how i have it setup right now, my vhosts just point their document roots straight to my home folder, but i'm getting 403 forbidden | 19:02 |
| shane2peru | ZykoticK9, right, I was not sure where to ask it, I will look for a cups channel, good idea. | 19:02 |
| abstrakt | zilkomaa, oh... you said panel, not places | 19:02 |
| abstrakt | zilkomaa, i don't know how to edit the places menu | 19:02 |
| alienkid10 | how long does check disc for defects usually take? | 19:02 |
| erUSUL | ecolitan_: th guide says where that file comes « Download the netboot installer tarfile from the Ubuntu Archives (karmic, jaunty), and extract its contents into the tftpboot server file root as per above. » | 19:02 |
| zilkomaa | abstrakt: ok sry for my bad english | 19:02 |
| erUSUL | alienkid10: depends on the speed of the optical drive ... | 19:03 |
| trism | abstrakt: I have no idea, I don't mess with apache that much, which is why I use the sym link on my dev machine, then I don't generally have to mess with the default apache config at all | 19:03 |
| abstrakt | zilkomaa, lol, that's less a case of bad english, more a case of saying the right thing... regardless of the language you speak | 19:03 |
| abstrakt | trism, do you use vhosts? | 19:03 |
| zilkomaa | abstrakt: =) | 19:03 |
| abstrakt | well actually i suppose you do, since it's setup as vhosts anyway... but i mean multiple vhosts | 19:04 |
| zilkomaa | How do i remove icon from places menu ? | 19:04 |
| alienkid10 | erUSUL: OK | 19:04 |
| abstrakt | zilkomaa, i don't think you do. or if you do, you probably need to edit a config/text file somewhere, cuz places doesn't show up in the menu editor | 19:04 |
| alienkid10 | erUSUL: I keep getting I/O error rebooting when I try to boot the disc | 19:05 |
| ecolitan_ | then I am loooking for netboot installer tar file on ubuntu.com and not finding | 19:05 |
| alienkid10 | so wanted to know before I lock up my only computer | 19:05 |
| geekualizer | zilkomaa, open nautilus, show the places side plane, you can add and remove items there | 19:05 |
| erUSUL | zilkomaa: remove it from the nautilus side panel. just select it a and hit supr ? | 19:05 |
| vng | no, I don't flood. I have a problem with irc client. Sorry! | 19:05 |
| vng | when i upload a file on htts://files.one.ubuntu.com/upload/ . I see Invalid Form Data | 19:05 |
| alienkid10 | will Vbox work to check a burned CD? | 19:05 |
| vng | What is it? | 19:05 |
| abstrakt | aight, so... anyone else have a guess? why do i get 403 forbidden on my vhosts? they're pretty much OTB copies of default but with different document roots... is the fact that my home folder is private/encrypted a problem? | 19:06 |
| vng | It seem that something's wrong with my ubuntu one. When i upload a file on htts://files.one.ubuntu.com/upload/ . I see Invalid Form Data error. I don't know why? | 19:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | zilkomaa, gconf-editor -- Desktop / Gnome / Interface - uncheck "menus_have_icons" but this will apply to ALL menus, not just places | 19:06 |
| alienkid10 | HTTS I think needs to be HTTPS? | 19:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | zilkomaa, ignorme my last statement :) | 19:07 |
| zilkomaa | ZykoticK9: Why? =) | 19:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | zilkomaa, NOT what you where looking for! | 19:07 |

| fakeer | ZykoticK9: I once tried Daily build but the experience has not been good... | 19:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | fakeer, then i'm affraid you are going to have to be patient < hard sometime i know | 19:26 |
| cig4 | dont u know that | 19:27 |
| ugliefrog | join #/blender | 19:27 |
| pratik_narain | fakeer: try ubuntuzilla repos | 19:27 |
| ugliefrog | :) | 19:27 |
| cig4 | fuck u man | 19:27 |
| stefg | davidisko: so there might be a problem with the chosen mirror being down or some DNS misconfiguration | 19:27 |
| jrib | cig4: please don't use that kind of language here | 19:28 |
| pratik_narain | fakeer: better still, download from official firefox website and use without installing | 19:28 |
| abumaia | byebye cig4. that's the wrong attitude for this place | 19:28 |
| cig4 | sorry | 19:28 |
| abstrakt | werd, my setup is complete! thanks yall | 19:28 |
| pratik_narain | cig4: watch your language | 19:28 |
| fakeer | ZykoticK9: yeah..pretty hard.... may be we could request Ubuntu for some change.. | 19:28 |
| cig4 | i want to know abt new games | 19:28 |
| cig4 | sorry | 19:28 |
| pratik_narain | cig4: visit playdeb.net | 19:29 |
| stefg | fakeer: https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable | 19:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | fakeer, if be "we" you mean "you" then yes - i like the policy myself | 19:29 |
| fakeer | pratik_narain: ubuntuzilla is sth i will never try again.. had a hard time updating my firefox with it and then harder coming back to default mozilla products.. thanks for suggesting anyway..... | 19:29 |
| darolu | abumaia: is the .ICEauthority file in your /home directory? | 19:29 |
| abumaia | darolu: yes, it's in the home directory, but not where the error said | 19:30 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, I fail to see the problem with using FF 3.5 | 19:31 |
| darolu | abumaia: check this file's permissions | 19:31 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, iirc it is in fact the "latest" version... maybe not the penultimate latest build, but if you want that you can always make a package yourself from source | 19:31 |
| fakeer | ZykoticK9: by "we" I mean me and ppl like me.. doesn't necessarily need to include you or anybody in particular... I certainly don;'t think delaying a stable release is a good policy...but anyway as long as ubuntu is canonical ubuntu some things will always be the way they are right now.... however I love ubuntu and want it to be better | 19:31 |
| pratik_narain | fakeer: actually i'm using ubuntuzilla. Its very easy to update like apt-get update command. earlier they had a script which was cumbersome to use. but the new repository structure is good. | 19:31 |
| metricpiano | abumaia: check permissions and owner/group | 19:31 |
| abumaia | I am set as owner with read write, and as group with read | 19:31 |
| scootsm | Question: Why does the "gnome control panel" install, but not show up anywhere in the menus? | 19:32 |
| kedlun | Hey anyone know if there is a undo for "clear" command in bash? | 19:32 |
| ikonia | kedlun: there is not | 19:32 |
| abumaia | kedlun: scroll up | 19:32 |
| pratik_narain | fakeer: may I suggest you to use opera instead. I feel its a better browser than firefox. but again, its my personal opinion. | 19:32 |
| kedlun | :( thanks ikonia | 19:32 |
| ikonia | kedlun: sorry | 19:32 |
| tolga | hello | 19:32 |
| fakeer | abstrakt: to start.. i will name one.. the next tab opening features...which opens besides the current tab..and in 3.5 i have to use a Add-On for that.. i am already using a lot to make it slow..... | 19:33 |
| metricpiano | is there a better way to add applications to the Applications menu than the GUI Edit Menus? | 19:33 |
| darolu | kedlun: if you press "up" key you can track your steps back | 19:33 |
| abumaia | kedlun: clear just moves everything up, scroll up in terminal to see it again | 19:33 |
| Ganang | hi everyone, i have a file which is owned by root(me), and i wanted to give free access to everybody inside the machine with the command chmod ugo+rx directory-name , so why when i give a right click in nautilus with the mouse, the permission is still set to root? | 19:33 |
| Yevial | hola esto q es ingles??? | 19:33 |
| kedlun | darolu, yeah, but not output, unfortunately. | 19:33 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, er... you mean the little plus sign button to the right of my last tab? | 19:33 |
| fakeer | pratik_narain: but my problem is not the browser but update cycle brought into ubuntu repos | 19:33 |
| stefg | scootsm: probably it's hidden by the menu editor (alacarte). The job is done by the "system" menu anyway so actually no need to double this by having it | 19:33 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, i've got that | 19:33 |
| Pici | metricpiano: No, not really. The application menus are in the freedesktop.org specification, which is a messy xml file. alacarte (the name of the edit menu tool) is the easiest way to add new items. | 19:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | fakeer, i like your motivation to make Ubuntu better - but what you are advocating would require splitting Ubuntu into Stable / Testing branches which would certainly complicate matters for everyone. | 19:33 |

| abstrakt | fakeer, it's srsly lame to complain that ubuntu sucks cuz it doesn't have some tiny little tabbing feature that, afaik it does have | 19:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | fakeer, this is a topic/issue for #ubuntu-offtopic rather then #ubuntu | 19:34 |

| scootsm | stefg: The gnome interface is kinda annoying. I'm seeeing that most (but not all) of the options show up in the menus. When I install programs, they don't seem to be added to any of the menus and it's very, very frustrating. KDE seems to add things to its menus, but KDE interface is fairly heinous. | 19:35 |
| trism | fakeer: they actually seem to be planning to move to a different update schedule for firefox, if I understand this blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-lucid-new-firefox-support-model | 19:35 |
| Ganang | metricpiano: how can i make it free so everybody can acess this folder? | 19:35 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, if you think there should be an optional repo with bleeding edge stuff, then stop complaining, make one, host it, and come back and tell us... or better yet put it on the forums | 19:36 |
| NewfieRich | Hey all, I am having problems setting up internet on ubuntu. Its not picking up any routers. | 19:36 |
| carlll | i need help installing the WoM client on linux | 19:36 |
| NewfieRich | any ideas? | 19:36 |
| stefg | scootsm: depending on the package and it's post-install script you might need to log off and back to mae menu entries appear | 19:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | scootsm, sometimes after installing software you need to refresh the Gnome Menu (do the installed apps appear after a reboot or logoff-login?) I sometimes use xkill on the menu to get the changes right away (not really recommended) | 19:36 |
| ikonia | NewfieRich: are you connecting to a dhcp server | 19:36 |
| abumaia | when I start up my computer after upgrading to the .19 kernel, I get the error "could not update ICEauthority file /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthority. I found out why: I don't have a /var/lib/gdm directory. I do have .ICEauthority in my home directory, and I have owner read-write and group read permissions. | 19:36 |
| fakeer | abstrakt: stop being judgemental... if i had to go back to windows i would have been waiting here for your words... | 19:36 |
| darolu | NewfieRich: what's the output of dhclient? | 19:36 |
| fakeer | trism: thanks..i am reading it | 19:37 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, and that's a seriously stupid feature to complain about IMO... what's wrong with CTRL-t ? now I could see complaining about a common critical library that you need to do your development not being available... but your "rationale" is just, well... pretty paltry | 19:37 |
| scootsm | Question 2.0: I want to do some development in a VM (and minor desktop-ish usage). I want to have an easy way to admin a web server+mysql / manage packages / etc. Is there a good set of tools to install, to make this easy.... Or is there an ideal distro for this scenario? | 19:37 |
| NewfieRich | i Don't know, i am a bit of a newb | 19:37 |
| scootsm | stefg / ZykoticK9: It's weird, because even after restarting the menus did not seem to update. | 19:37 |
| ikonia | scootsm: mysql apache and php tools are very easy to install | 19:37 |
| NewfieRich | I had it working before but i reinstalled ubuntu | 19:37 |
| carlll | can i get help installing the WoM client for linux | 19:37 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, i'm still curious about this new tab feature that you say doesn't exist... cuz it looks like it exists to me | 19:37 |
| ikonia | carlll: WoM ? | 19:38 |
| fakeer | abstrakt: i just gave an example.. and as you say what's wrong with 3.5?? very well.. what was wrong with 1.5.. you could still surf the net pretty fine.. (it's really off topic now i guess...huh..). | 19:38 |
| darolu | NewfieRich: open a terminal and type "dhclient" | 19:38 |
| ikonia | darolu: he'll need sudo | 19:38 |
| carlll | World Of Minecraft | 19:38 |
| ikonia | carlll: I'm not aware of that product, one moment while I look for it | 19:38 |
| darolu | NewfieRich: yeah sorry, type "sudo dhclient" | 19:38 |
| fakeer | abstrakt: it's not there... | 19:39 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, you gave an example about opening new tabs... i fail to see the lack of that feature in 3.5 | 19:39 |
| carlll | its at worldofminecraft.com | 19:39 |
| scootsm | stefg / ZykoticK9: I went to KDE and then back to Gnome. Nothing refreshed. | 19:39 |
| fakeer | abstrakt: you might be using some plugin you have no idea of... | 19:39 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, maybe i'm just confused as to this fabulous new ability in FF 3.6 | 19:39 |
| stefg | scootsm: Do you have some example ? what app doens't show in the menus? Not all apps comply with the xdg standards | 19:39 |
| ikonia | carlll: it's a java client from what I'm seeing, would you agree that's the right application ? | 19:39 |
| fakeer | abstrakt: it's about opening a tab just next to the current tab..read my first msg | 19:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | scootsm, what program is not showing up? did you install it from apt/aptitude/synaptic/USC ? | 19:40 |
| furythor | I am configuring LDAP server and now it asks password and I need to dig it up but from where ? | 19:40 |
| carlll | yes its for a game called minecraft | 19:40 |
| NewfieRich | darolu: I put in that command | 19:40 |
| ikonia | carlll: ok, it's a java jar file | 19:40 |
| scootsm | ikonia: My question is more along the lines of some kind of a Panel, where I can control all of the services that are running and make minor tweaks. The SuSE (barf) server was OK at this, with the exception of it generating faulty starting configs. | 19:40 |
| abumaia | fakeer: the Tab Mix Plus extension will give you that setting, to open a new tab next to the tab you opened it from | 19:40 |
| abstrakt | fakeer, mmm, next to the *current* one... k, so your critical app is that you don't have to drag the newly opened tab into place where you want it... | 19:40 |
| === raven is now known as _raven | ||
| ikonia | scootsm: look at tools like ebox, mysqladmin etc | 19:40 |
| NewfieRich | darolu: it seems like my wireless network adapter is not installed | 19:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | carlll, it doesn't seem to have a native linux client, and there is not currently an entry on WineHQ - you could just try installing with wine and see if it works? good luck. | 19:41 |
| NewfieRich | darolu: Says not DCHPOFFERS received | 19:41 |
| abstrakt | save yourself some mousing time... admirable, but i still don't see why you don't just make your own 3.6 package or just download 3.6 from firefox.com and install it... | 19:41 |
| scootsm | stefg: Well, the Gnome Control Center, for one. I installed programming tools / IDEs (Kate / Eclipse / others) and they never showed up | 19:41 |
| carlll | zykoticK9 yes there is a native linux but ITS ON WWW.worldofminecraft.com | 19:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | carlll, didn't realize it was a java thing - good luck man | 19:42 |
| scootsm | stefg / ZykoticK9: Yes, all tools were installed via the Software Centeropolis | 19:42 |

| NewfieRich | how do i check to see if my wireless network card Drivers is installed: | 19:42 |
| ahusak | oh joy | 19:42 |
| abumaia | fakeer: check out Tab Mix Plus, I believe it may do what you're looking for | 19:43 |
| stefg | scootsm: check by right-clicking on the menu and choosing 'edit menus' the the entries are not simply hidden | 19:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | scootsm, do you see an Other category in your menu? are they in there perhaps? | 19:43 |

| furythor | Where Open LDAP stores user information and is that recoverable by any means ? | 19:51 |
| ikonia | furythor: ldap stores it's information in a "database" or directory, that's it's whole purpose | 19:52 |
| Seveas | furythor, /var/lib/ldap/ | 19:52 |
| Seveas | furythor, and there are recovery tools for its default formats | 19:52 |
| furythor | I do wonder that what it could have set as default password after install | 19:52 |
| Seveas | ikonia, (technically: ldap is a directory. The openldap implementation can store the information in a variety of database backends. Historycally that was bdb, but nowadays hdb is prefered) | 19:53 |
| Seveas | furythor, openldap doesn't set default passwords. | 19:53 |

| scootsm | One last question: Is there an unstable repo for Ubuntu, or something that's fairly cutting edge in the packages it offers? | 19:54 |
| fredje_chill | no balls, no glory | 19:54 |

| furythor | then does Open LDAP suit if I want to create access control to my server for various users and groups | 19:55 |
| ikonia | scootsm: I suggest you stay well away unless you have a genuine need, which basic from the questions you're asking - you don't | 19:55 |
| Seveas | furythor, yeah | 19:55 |
| Coachj | how do I edit my smb.conf file | 19:55 |
| blakkheim | scootsm: debian sid :/ | 19:55 |
| ikonia | furythor: ldap is an excellent authentication model | 19:55 |
| ikonia | Coachj: any text editor you want | 19:55 |
| Seveas | furythor, but if it is just one server, don't bother. Use local groups. | 19:55 |
| Coachj | do i nedd to type sudo? | 19:55 |
| ikonia | Coachj: yes | 19:55 |
| Seveas | furythor, ldap is good though if you have more than one server :) | 19:55 |
| ikonia | Seveas: rule of 10 ? | 19:55 |
| Seveas | ikonia, rule of 2 | 19:56 |
| ikonia | ooh, | 19:56 |
| Seveas | (I always use ldap for environments with more than 1 server :) | 19:56 |
| ikonia | Seveas: lazier than I | 19:56 |
| ikonia | ;) | 19:56 |
| Seveas | ikonia, different rule ;) | 19:56 |
| furythor | Seveas well actually this is something I am interested to learn for future job opportunities since I know there are few possible if I got the "Know how" | 19:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | Coachj, for a GUI edit you could use "gksu gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf" | 19:56 |
| Seveas | rule of 10 isn't always appropriate though. If you know for sure one server will be enough, don't plan for 2 or more :) | 19:56 |
| ikonia | Seveas: touche' | 19:57 |
| Coachj | ill try that | 19:57 |

| ugliefrog | why does firefox and chrome wig out on flash....is there a fix..or a constant work in progress | 19:57 |
| Seveas | furythor, then by all means play around with it. ldap definitely is a good thing to know if you want to get a sysadmin job | 19:57 |
| al__ | I've searched the forums and found various WLAN card lists, apparently my wireless card IS supported (Netgear WG311v2) both natively and using ndiswrapper - but lshw and lspci report it as UNCLAIMED - how do I kick the driver into action? | 19:57 |
| furythor | Yeah, I know that around thousand ppl I know of, I am probably only who really could become sys admin | 19:58 |
| obiwan_ | guys when it talks about a version and it says: 'an older version' it means, a version made after that one, or before? i think it means before but i'm not sure | 19:58 |

| ugliefrog | why does firefox and chrome wig out on flash....is there a fix..or a constant work in progress | 19:59 |
| gandhi_ | cause flash is fail | 19:59 |

| obiwan_ | ikonia: man rsync says versions before than 3 preserve symlinked dirs in the target host. Then it says --no-implied-dirs avoids creating files as symlinks (the current behaviour of rsync). But it says, if you got an older version, to ensure you send as symlinks (that's supposed to be the default behaviour of older rsyncs) use --no-implied-dirs(what the heck? that is absolutely the opposite you want if you want to send as symlinks) | 20:03 |
| ikonia | obiwan_: a.) rsync support in #samba b.) older means file before the current | 20:04 |

| ikonia | obiwan_: yes, older versions of the file | 20:06 |
| obiwan_ | no, older versions of rsync ikonia | 20:06 |
| furythor | Flare183: my Open LDAP went wild, it has password of which I got no idea | 20:06 |

| Flare183 | SpaceGhostC2C: oh ok | 20:07 |
| obiwan_ | ikonia in that context it means older versions of rsyn and i don't understand if it means versions made after 3.0 (3.x) or before 3.0, (2.x) | 20:07 |

| GSF1200S | erUSUL: just so you know, what happened is my backup drive was being autofscked and was unmounted. rsync ran by crontab to backup /home to /media/Backup. Since backup wasnt mounted, it started filling the directory, now /, with crap from /home. So I set crontab to call a script at /home, which calls another script on /media/Backup, so the problem doesnt happen again. Thanks for the help | 20:09 |

| wam | Hi, I have a problem with copying, reading and writing large files at once. Whenever I do this, my box freezes (nearly) due to heavy disk-io. Everything works as long as disk-buffers are available. But as soon as buffers are full, most processes stop working. This happens on my local boxes and even on my big 8-core server with a netapp san in the back. I'm looking for documents to read about that problem and for mount options or other hints... | 20:31 |

| Wind0pain | any ideas why i can not change the # of desktops in compiz config manager w/ ubuntu 9.10? | 20:35 |
| Wind0pain | i can adust horizontal and vertcail virtual sizes, but not the # of desktops | 20:35 |
| mauri | unop: in this partitions now there is only Lucid directory that contains the distro | 20:35 |
| mauri | unop: I tried to changed root directory in grub but it was not enought | 20:35 |
| soreau | Wind0pain: You always want the number of desktops to be 1 | 20:35 |
| besogon | Flare183: Don't nag me. It would be better to answer. | 20:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | Wind0pain, right click the switcher in the Gnome Panel and goto preferences - number of desktop should be changable there (Columns) | 20:36 |
| mauri | unop: im not an expert but i supposed that | 20:36 |
| guntbert | HappyHobo: we hear you - no need to shout | 20:36 |

| ubottu | besogon: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 20:36 |
| soreau | Wind0pain: None of the compiz plugins use desktops since compiz uses a single desktop at its core it divides into viewports that are your workspaces | 20:36 |
| mauri | unop: redefined what the root is...like /lucid... it should worked | 20:36 |
| sebsebseb | !lucid | mauri | 20:37 |
| ubottu | mauri: 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 | 20:37 |
| guntbert | besogon: and if you ask your question in the channel you will get a greater audience | 20:37 |
| Wind0pain | soreau: ahh | 20:37 |

| unop | mauri, when you use a chroot you usually run that distro within another - i suppose you could apply the same principle for grub, but it requires too much work - you need to change a lot of files around to point to new directory locations e.g. to point to /lucid/var instead of /var -- i think you should just create a new partiton and use that instead. | 20:39 |
| HappyHobo | because no one else is paying attention guntbert | 20:39 |
| Wind0pain | erUSUL: i have that installed; on the ccsm page for the cube, there are three shortcut keys.. unfold, next slid, and prev slide... not one to display it though | 20:39 |

| ZykoticK9 | alienkid10, typically Persistent installs use USB drivers -- you understand that a persistent CD would need some sort of HD storage. | 20:40 |
| soreau | Wind0pain: I would recommend you install simple-ccsm and use the Custom radio button so the settings in ccsm will be saved. If you need more help, please come to #compiz | 20:40 |

| tessarakt | I searched for x86 | 22:28 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: maybe I need to rename that /usr/local/lib/libruby19-static.a to something else? so it can find it as -lruby19 | 22:28 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | GhostWolf, possible. | 22:28 |
| tessarakt | and 32 was a bit too generic | 22:28 |
| Daughain | And/or how do I find out? | 22:28 |
| Glowball | erUSUL: It's disabled indeed. Quite strange I *do* find the jre... | 22:28 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: no, you shouldn't need to rename it, that's fine,....ahh wait | 22:28 |

| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: it's doing -shared = shared libaries, .la is static | 22:28 |
| gslauen | I have just installed mythbuntu 9.10 and I am having an odd problem. In the frontend I am being asked for a password to change settings under utilities/settings. I have never seen this before. Can anyone help me with this or tell me where to find or change this password. I understand being asked for a password for the backend and to login but I have never seen it on the frontend. Thanks | 22:28 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, it's not associated with the files, you might not have lost a application, just the association. | 22:28 |
| ikonia | Goliath: what's that for ? | 22:28 |
| tessarakt | 2 more minutes and I have my beloved Thunderbird3 back ... | 22:29 |
| Goliath | ikonia: wrong paste | 22:29 |
| ikonia | Goliath: no problem | 22:29 |
| GhostWolf | but SpaceGhostC2C i know those people added me so i dunno even one person added me when i had to use my windows machine for a while cause i was on dial up | 22:29 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: when you've built ruby, you've only built the static libraries, that's why it's failing | 22:29 |

| codenamenos | hey i want to copy the whole website of lyrics any idea how to do that. using ubuntu 9.10 | 22:29 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: How do I reset the association? | 22:29 |
| dabaR | Nibz: hey, when did I give you a site? | 22:29 |
| Nibz | Dabar: Few min ago https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/477104?comments=all | 22:30 |
| dabaR | that was someone else. | 22:30 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: ohhh :O do you know what do I need to do for it got generate the shared ones? (or do I need to go google it?) :) | 22:30 |
| Nibz | Dabar: My bad | 22:30 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: need to recompile ruby, look for the shared libs options | 22:30 |
| Nibz | Dabar: But I have tryed everyone on that site. | 22:30 |
| al__ | Seveas, looks like I'm affected by this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ndiswrapper/+bug/459716 | 22:30 |
| dabaR | Nibz: so you just installed ubuntu using wubi. You can not boot into it, right? | 22:30 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: you could just link it against ruby supplied with ubuntu | 22:30 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, I'm looking it up. | 22:31 |
| Nibz | dabar: Yes I can boot the first time but not have I update | 22:31 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: Thanks. | 22:31 |
| al__ | Seveas, do you have WPA working using ndiswrapper in 9.10 - and if so did you have to do your own build or is there another (less scary) way? | 22:31 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, here is one answer, but I remember seeing something better. | 22:31 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, http://techntools.vox.com/library/post/changing-file-associations-in-ubuntu-is-as-easy-as-cake.html | 22:31 |
| dabaR | Nibz: so, you installed, it worked, you updated and it does not work any more? | 22:31 |
| Seveas | al__, I don't. I've used intel hardware for years, no problems at all :) | 22:31 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: Cool, thanks. =) | 22:31 |
| al__ | Seveas, heh | 22:31 |
| Nibz | Dabar: Correct is on boot it brings me the grub promt | 22:32 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: I already did sudo apt-get build-dep ruby1.8 ruby1.9 | 22:32 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: thought that would take care of that | 22:32 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: not if the build options are static | 22:32 |
| al__ | Seveas, though getting the latest code and rebuilding it I guess wouldn't help if the bug itself isn't fixed - or am I missing something? | 22:33 |
| dabaR | Nibz: and what did you try on the prompt? | 22:33 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: lol, I just solved my problem | 22:33 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: ooh, cool, do tell | 22:33 |
| Seveas | al__, if upstream hasn't fixed the bug tht will indeed not help | 22:33 |
| gslauen | I have just installed mythbuntu 9.10 and I am having an odd problem. In the frontend I am being asked for a password to change settings under utilities/settings. I have never seen this before. Can anyone help me with this or tell me where to find or change this password. Is this a bug? Thanks | 22:33 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: you know what I did? renamed libruby19-static.a to libruby19.a | 22:33 |
| lobo_tuerto | and it succesfully compiled and installed | 22:33 |
| lobo_tuerto | my ruby-opengl :) | 22:33 |
| Nibz | Dabar: linux/boot/vml... root=/dev/sda2 loop=/ubuntu/disks/roo.disk ro >initrd /boot/init... >boot | 22:34 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: and it's linked against the static libary ? | 22:34 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: didn't think that would work as the gcc line you've shown me was using -shared | 22:34 |
| codenamenos | i want to copy whole website of lyrics any idea how i gonna do that? | 22:34 |
| === sekrit is now known as charitwo | ||
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: Ok.....What app do I need to associate an exe file with? | 22:34 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: yeah, me too, but it did... I will run the samples to check everything is alright | 22:34 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | codenamenos, maybe you should look up wget. man wget is the command. | 22:34 |
| dabaR | Nibz: Do you know that /dev/sda2 is correct? | 22:34 |
| pH_ | hey guys | 22:34 |
| GhostWolf | so no one else would know the problem with amsn that has an x inside a circle? | 22:34 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, depends, is it a windows app you want to run? | 22:34 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: be interesting to see if it's stable, nice spot though | 22:34 |
| FireCrotch | Does anyone know if there's a way to make google chrome use your window manager's theming? | 22:34 |
| pH_ | guys, any idea about how can I mount a dvd on my windows and read it from my netbook? | 22:35 |
| pH_ | remote dvd stuff | 22:35 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: No, linux app. windows I know what to link it to. =) | 22:35 |
| trism | GhostWolf: the amsn faq says that the person does not have you in their contact list | 22:35 |
| Nibz | dabar: Yes I do | 22:35 |
| ikonia | pH_: you'd have to share your dvd drive on windows, it will be slow though | 22:35 |
| === codenamenos is now known as codename09 | ||
| FireCrotch | Oh pffft, nevermind, I didn't look well enough | 22:35 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, are you sure it's a linux app? .exe is usually windows.. | 22:35 |
| GhostWolf | trism well i know they do, cause they added me on the normal msn when i had to use windows on dial up | 22:36 |
| trism | GhostWolf: a forum post I found said this could be for 3 reason, the user removed you, didn't add you yet, or it is a bug with the server and they really do have you | 22:36 |
| lobo_tuerto | ikonia: well, the chingu's game samples run just good, thanks for your support :) | 22:36 |
| ikonia | lobo_tuerto: you fixed it yourself, well dont "yourself" | 22:36 |
| Nibz | dabar: still there? | 22:37 |
| GhostWolf | trism, well its mainly the 3rd option.. i know for a fact the person added me cause i accepted it when i was on my windows comp before i could get dsl back | 22:37 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: Yes, I just write it that way, since I dont actually know what file extension linux apps use. | 22:37 |
| dabaR | Nibz: yes. A couple of people say they can manually boot. | 22:37 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, linux isn't dependent on a file extiension | 22:37 |
| Daughain | Oi.... | 22:38 |
| Nibz | Dabar: With the same thing I typed to you? | 22:38 |
| Daughain | Its unetbootin for linux. | 22:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, I'd rename the file to just the name or something you want. | 22:38 |
| pH_ | ikonia: how | 22:38 |
| pH_ | ? | 22:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, so when you downloaded it, what was it's name? | 22:38 |
| ikonia | pH_: the guys in ##windows will tell you how to share your cd drive, you then need to use "samba" on linux to mount it | 22:38 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: unetbootin-linux-393 | 22:38 |
| mtrg | what's the best media server for playihg HD 5.1 1080p/i moivies | 22:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | then all you should need to do is chmod +x unetbootin-linux-393 and then ./unetbootin-linux-393 | 22:39 |
| ikonia | mtrg: the client is what matters | 22:39 |
| GhostWolf | ok anyways thanks for the problem guys have a nice weekend | 22:39 |
| dabaR | Nibz: ya, looks like. | 22:39 |
| Nibz | Dabar: What is /dev | 22:39 |
| dabaR | As in here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/477104/comments/18 | 22:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ikonia, but don't some servers have better features, like on the fly transcoding? | 22:39 |
| pH_ | ikonia: do you know any tut? | 22:39 |
| Nibz | Dabar: I know for a face that sda2 is correct but im not sure about /dev | 22:40 |
| dabaR | Nibz: it is where file nodes | 22:40 |
| mtrg | ikonia: my client is an xbox360, connected to Harman/Kardon AVR with 5.1 setup, and a 1080i screen | 22:40 |
| ikonia | SpaceGhostC2C: it doesn't matter if he's serving files | 22:40 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: Ummmm....What does that do?? I dont care what it is called, I need to find out how to make it run. =) | 22:40 |
| ikonia | mtrg: so you're using upnp | 22:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ikonia, good point. | 22:40 |
| dabaR | Nibz: it is where "file nodes" for devices go. | 22:40 |
| Nibz | Dabar: Then Yes it should work | 22:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, that makes it executable and then runs it. | 22:40 |
| dabaR | Nibz: in Unix, everything is a file, even a device - you read from it, and write to it | 22:40 |
| mtrg | ikonia: i thought upnp is for auto configuring NAT on routers | 22:40 |
| Nibz | Dabar: I have the correct partition selected | 22:40 |
| dabaR | Nibz: how do you know sda2 is good? | 22:40 |
| ikonia | mtrg: no, | 22:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | !info udev | Nibz | 22:40 |
| ubottu | Nibz: udev (source: udev): rule-based device node and kernel event manager. In component main, is important. Version 147~-6.1 (karmic), package size 420 kB, installed size 1432 kB | 22:40 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: And, last time I tried playing in term, I lost these associations and crashed dolphin. | 22:41 |
| * dabaR thinks SpaceGhostC2C is cute | 22:41 | |
| Daughain | OK, I'll give it a try. =) | 22:41 |
| ikonia | mtrg: I'm asking as you'll need a client that's compatible with your server, so it depends what servers the xbox can use, hence why I was wondering if you where using upnp | 22:41 |
| mtrg | ikonia: do you recommend any upnp streaming server, that supports WMA HD 5.1 streaming? | 22:41 |
| Nibz | dabar: I intstalled it on my second partiton or my d:/ drive so it should be 2 | 22:41 |
| ikonia | mtrg: the streaming isn't important - it's just a file. It's more important that the client can deal with the encoding and is compatible with the server | 22:42 |
| dabaR | I've seen hda2 | 22:42 |
| dabaR | I think it is the diff between sata and ide drives | 22:42 |
| rambo298 | i get authentication failed over and over at spash login; this is after ldap was installed now i am trying to recover. i've reset my password with grub recovery mode, but i still get authentication failed over and over HELP! | 22:42 |
| * dabaR could be way off on this one | 22:42 | |
| maddhat | sort of odd issue (in server 9.10), I can browse to a drive but the cmd "df" doesnt see it, nor does "ls /dev/sd*" | 22:42 |
| omenmaster | can some1 help - screen goes black while im using my laptop and it wont come back on forcing me to reboot. plz help and thanks in advance | 22:42 |
| mtrg | ikonia: encoding aka codecs? | 22:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | dabar are you replying to someone or asking a question? | 22:42 |
| ikonia | mtrg: a file is encoded with a "codec" if you want, if that's not compatible with the client, it won't matter | 22:43 |
| maddhat | anyone know how to get that drive to show up when i do df? | 22:43 |
| Nibz | Space: Hes talking to me | 22:43 |
| iceroot | rambo298: is pam set to only accept ldap or also local /etc/passwd? if not, set /etc/passwd also | 22:43 |
| ikonia | maddhat: mount it | 22:43 |
| mtrg | ikonia: right, that's why I said WMA HD | 22:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | dabaR, you should use the usernames to reply to someone. like everyone else is doing. | 22:43 |
| maddhat | ikonia: it must be mounted already.. as i said, i can browse to it | 22:43 |
| ikonia | mtrg: ok, so the server doesn't matter, it's just a file | 22:43 |
| Nibz | Dabar: Ok say it was hda2 Would dev will be the correct path | 22:44 |
| ikonia | maddhat: is it a samba mount by any chance ? | 22:44 |
| mtrg | ikonia: and that file must be encoded properly as WMA HD? | 22:44 |
| Nibz | space: He missed it once | 22:44 |
| rambo298 | iceroot i removed pam (i think); if i edit /etc/passwd in recovery mode (root), and just delete my password between the ":" like i did with /etc/shadow, will that work? | 22:44 |
| ikonia | mtrg: yes | 22:44 |
| maddhat | ikonia: no, im browsing through term (ssh'd in) | 22:44 |
| mtrg | ikonia: good to know | 22:44 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: That got it, thanks again. =) | 22:44 |
| omenmaster | can some1 help - screen goes black while im using my laptop and it wont come back on forcing me to reboot. plz help and thanks in advance | 22:44 |
| mtrg | ikonia: I thought some servers are able to change encoding on the fly | 22:44 |
| iceroot | rambo298: i bet you dont removed pam, if so you have a big problem | 22:44 |
| ikonia | maddhat: show me the output of mount in a pastebin please | 22:44 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Nibz, more than once. I wanted to know if he was the one having the problem or what he was talking about. I'm not attacking him, chill. | 22:45 |
| ikonia | mtrg: they sure can, but that's going to take a large ammount of resources | 22:45 |
| rambo298 | iceroot what pkg can i install to get pam back? | 22:45 |
| mtrg | ikonia: any good names for such servers? | 22:45 |
| iceroot | rambo298: with what you think you have REMOVED pam? | 22:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, no worries mate, if you need more help let me know. | 22:45 |
| maddhat | ikonia: i cant mount it tho, its not showing up in dev | 22:45 |
| dabaR | SpaceGhostC2C: you are super cute. | 22:45 |
| Nibz | Spaceghostc2c: alright sorry | 22:45 |
| pH_ | ok guys | 22:45 |
| ikonia | mtrg: I'm not aware of any as wmv is a propratary codec | 22:45 |
| pH_ | dvd on windows is not being shered | 22:45 |
| pH_ | shared | 22:45 |
| pH_ | how do i get it from ubuntu? | 22:45 |
| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: I always need help, I just need to find what I need help with next. =) | 22:45 |
| ikonia | maddhat: then you can't be browsing it | 22:46 |
| dabaR | Nibz: /dev is 99.9999999% correct. I would be super surprised if it was not. | 22:46 |
| rambo298 | iceroot you assume i was thinking? i panicked when i couldn't login! i removed everything i installed with ldap, but i whacked the pam.d directory | 22:46 |
| maddhat | ikonia: like i said.. odd | 22:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | mtrg, here's a hint, see what clients you have available to you on your devices and then find a server compatible, not the otehr way around. | 22:46 |
| ikonia | maddhat: please show me the output of the command "mount" on it's own | 22:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | dabaR, what is that supposed to mean? | 22:46 |
| maddhat | ohh | 22:46 |
| Nibz | dabar: Ok great thanks so much for pointion out my stupid error I will try this But what happens when I do get it booted is it not going to presist with the sameproblem? | 22:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, well we're always here, and you can feel free to PM me anytime you need help. | 22:46 |
| dabaR | SpaceGhostC2C: You somehow come off as being a newcomer to the community, and very eager to help. I find it cute. | 22:46 |
| iceroot | rambo298: hm, use a live-cd or recovery console and check /var/log/auth.log | 22:47 |
| iceroot | rambo298: to see what is wrong | 22:47 |
| dabaR | Nibz: no, it could just as much not be the case that that is the problem. | 22:47 |
| rambo298 | ok let me see; this is windows i will switch over and check brb | 22:47 |
| dabaR | But you gotta test that. | 22:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | dabaR, I'm not sure if you're being rude, but I think you are. I have been here for quite some time. The length doesn't matter, don't be insulting. | 22:47 |
| dabaR | SpaceGhostC2C: in other words, you remind me of me. | 22:47 |
| ikonia | guys, please drop it | 22:48 |
| Nibz | dabar: OK I will and get back to you on that. Thank you so much for the help. | 22:48 |

| Daughain | SpaceGhostC2C: You missed the fun when I set up lanboot on this system. =) | 22:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Daughain, you should pm me to chat about things. Or we can go chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:48 |
| rambo298 | iceroot no i'd have to translate it; but i will try, what's the url for your article? man did i screw myself big time with this one | 22:49 |

| helium3fusion | nice... | 22:51 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | dabaR, do you mind not belittling other bro? It's rude and degrading. | 22:51 |
| dabaR | ikonia: ^ see how he thanked me? | 22:51 |
| ikonia | dabaR: it doesn't matter, you don't speak to people like that | 22:51 |
| dabaR | Like what? | 22:51 |

| rambo298 | iceroot txs for the link; so the error is, surprise surprise, PAM pam_start: failed to initialize handlers could not open /etc/pam.conf; so what pkg can i install to get pam back? | 22:53 |
| iceroot | rambo298: in /etc/nsswitch.conf just set passwd, shadow and group to comvat | 22:53 |
| mengu | hi. how do i know if my vga driver is installed? if it is not installed, how can i install it? | 22:54 |
| iceroot | !info pam | 22:54 |
| ubottu | Package pam does not exist in karmic | 22:54 |
| mengu | i'm on 9.10 | 22:54 |
| iceroot | rambo298: i dont know the packagename but dpkg-reconfigure thepackage-name-of-pame should be enough | 22:54 |
| jage | is there a way to set the execute permission bit on a CD? | 22:54 |
| rambo298 | iceroot ok txs i'll try to find the pkg name | 22:55 |
| iceroot | rambo298: on jaunty, pam.conf is empty by default | 22:55 |
| m013 | beeeeeetiiiis | 22:55 |
| rambo298 | iceroot i'll be back, but i am sure it is because i whacked the pam directory and pam.conf in /etc ... bad move i know | 22:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jage, it'd be only for the time it's mounted. I think so though. | 22:56 |
| mengu | anyone? | 22:56 |
| iceroot | rambo298: always create a file like pam.conf.old before doing changes | 22:56 |
| jage | i only need the execute bit for the install, so a mount is OK, but mount -o exec fails saying the CD is read only | 22:56 |
| rambo298 | iceroot i think i should always think before i delete things ... that is the first step; gray matter first, fingers second! | 22:56 |
| iceroot | rambo298: that is a good start ;) | 22:57 |

| newfierich | Hello all. I am having problems connecting to the internet using ubuntu. I just reinstalled 9.10 and now I can't seem to connect wireless. I never had problems in the past on have no problems connecting via windows | 22:58 |
| sebsebseb | !new | andrew__ | 22:58 |
| ubottu | andrew__: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com | 22:58 |
| andrew__ | I mean explaining the file structure, what /var/www, /etc/ and stuff means? | 22:58 |
| sebsebseb | andrew__: Ubuntu Pocket Guide | 22:58 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | sebsebseb, you beat me to it... | 22:58 |
| andrew__ | Ok right ta | 22:58 |
| iceroot | !dirs | andrew__ | 22:59 |
| ubottu | andrew__: An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview see also: man hier | 22:59 |
| newfierich | I also checked my wireless card and it seems to be working in ubuntu... any ideas? | 22:59 |
| jage | is there a ubottu for disabling the execute bit check? | 22:59 |
| iceroot | newfierich: sounds good if it is working | 22:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | jage, chmod -x foo | 23:00 |
| newfierich | connection manager does no give me any networks to connect too ... | 23:00 |
| andrew__ | Oh cool, there's actually a nice guide on stuff there | 23:00 |
| iceroot | newfierich: but showing the card? | 23:00 |
| ardchoille | jage: Be careful when using that recursively, removing the execute bit from folders can lock users out of folders | 23:00 |
| jage | jage@Violet:/media/QWBASMMIR1F$ chmod -x install.exe | 23:00 |
| jage | chmod: changing permissions of `install.exe': Read-only file system (It's a CD | 23:00 |
| newfierich | iceroot: I checked it in terminal | 23:01 |
| iceroot | jage: install.exe? | 23:01 |
| iceroot | jage: on linux? | 23:01 |
| mengu | Kohar: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) | 23:01 |
| sebsebseb | SpaceGhostC2C: Which? | 23:01 |
| mengu | it shows this. | 23:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | jage, that's a windows program - i think everything from MS is set to executable... you should probably be using something like "wine install.exe" instead | 23:01 |
| jage | iceroot: yes, trying to use Wine to install from CD and it doens't have a execute flag set | 23:01 |
| mengu | but in the display my max screen resolution is 1024. i had it larger in 9.04 | 23:01 |
| newfierich | at least my wireless drivers are installed.. | 23:01 |
| iceroot | jage: wine file.exe and not ./file.exe | 23:02 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | sebsebseb, about the !new factoid and the pocket book :P | 23:02 |
| jage | -r-------- 1 jage jage 14860 2000-08-03 16:57 install.exe | 23:02 |
| iceroot | jage: again, wine install.exe | 23:03 |
| newfierich | Does anyone have any idea why connection manager does not show any wireless connections but windows does? as far as a i can tell my network card is installed... | 23:03 |
| dc0m | newfierich: because it sucks. | 23:03 |
| sebsebseb | SpaceGhostC2C: ok | 23:03 |
| jage | iceroot: yeah that worked, thanks. | 23:03 |
| iceroot | jage: or just click the exe, wine will handle it | 23:04 |
| newfierich | dc0m: thanks for the help | 23:04 |
| dc0m | newfierich: try wicd. | 23:04 |
| dc0m | newfierich: maybe you'll have luck with that one. You are sure you have wireless card working in Ubuntu? | 23:05 |
| dc0m | newfierich: if you card is working ... and network manager does not show any connections, try wicd as an alternative. | 23:05 |
| newfierich | dc0m: I know the there are drivers installed for it... | 23:06 |
| newfierich | dc0m: I will give that a try and report back thanks | 23:06 |
| dc0m | newfierich: there are some nice tutorials on net for wicd on ubuntu, google it. | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | andrew__: np | 23:07 |
| ardchoille | 23:08 | |
| ubottu | While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 23:08 |
| === orion is now known as Guest90325 | ||
| newfierich | dc0m: will do | 23:09 |
| dc0m | ardchoille: there was no question. | 23:10 |
| dabaR | ardchoille: did you actually know that message was gonna come up for !google? | 23:11 |
| ardchoille | yes, Please don't tell people to "google it" | 23:11 |
| renegaid | what file system should be used for the boot partition? | 23:11 |
| duffydack | Ive had to reinstall my win7/ubuntu laptop, and for some reason I`m getting this (http://imagebin.org/84589) and when trying to add a partition in the last unallocated space it tells me I cant add anymore primary, but ive made extended, which holds home/swap... this is the same partition setup I used last time and I never saw any unallocated spaces inbetween the partitions like that.. | 23:11 |
| ardchoille | dabaR: I've been here for years ;) | 23:11 |
| dabaR | renegaid: ext4 | 23:11 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | renegaid, depends on what your kernel has support for | 23:11 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | renegaid, I'd stick with ext2 or ext3 | 23:11 |
| dc0m | dabaR: why ext4? | 23:12 |
| dabaR | ardchoille: that is not what it used to say a long time ago. | 23:12 |
| Gekko_____ | disconnect | 23:12 |
| iceroot | SpaceGhostC2C: kernel supports everything | 23:12 |
| dabaR | dc0m: I think that is the default for ubuntu now. | 23:12 |
| dabaR | !fs | 23:12 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, yeah. but as a rule of thumb, not all kernels support everything. | 23:12 |
| lokman | hi | 23:12 |
| iceroot | SpaceGhostC2C: all kernels support ext2-4 and some others | 23:12 |
| renegaid | so basically it doesn't matter? | 23:12 |
| dc0m | dabaR: i use ext3, sometimes ext2. So its pretty much up to you.... | 23:12 |
| erUSUL | SpaceGhostC2C: the problem is with grub. it does not have a stage for everything :) | 23:12 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | dabaR, the reason I wouldn't use ext4 for my /boot is because it's not stable yet. | 23:12 |
| dc0m | SpaceGhostC2C: i agree. | 23:13 |
| Seveas | iceroot, ext4 only since rather recent though | 23:13 |
| dabaR | renegaid: well, you should probably use what ubuntu uses by default. | 23:13 |
| erUSUL | renegaid: use ext* | 23:13 |
| Seveas | SpaceGhostC2C, does grub2 support ext4 already? | 23:13 |
| dabaR | renegaid: but you could use something else if you want. | 23:13 |
| iceroot | Seveas: on all supported ubuntu-versions kernel support ext4 | 23:13 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | renegaid, maybe. I use ext3 because it's stable. | 23:13 |
| EPAstor | Just anecdotal, but I'm running ext4 and grub2. Works fine for me. | 23:13 |
| iceroot | Seveas: 8.04 can handle ext4 also | 23:13 |
| renegaid | it doesn't say what is default | 23:13 |
| Seveas | iceroot, I'm fairly sure dapper (6.04, still supported) doesn't :) | 23:13 |
| dabaR | renegaid: what ubuntu are you gonna install? | 23:13 |
| erUSUL | Seveas: it should at leat the ubuntu patched version :) or we all would be in much trouble | 23:13 |
| Seveas | erUSUL, kk :) | 23:14 |
| EPAstor | ext4 is generally the default. Honestly, I don't think it makes much difference. | 23:14 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, I don't just use ubuntu. I run my own lfs distro for personal use among other things. So it's not a bandaid solution. Best idea is to let him know the ubuntu specific kernel has support, but not all. | 23:14 |
| renegaid | 9.10 | 23:14 |
| iceroot | Seveas: the server-edition, yes you are correct, its still supported (imo) | 23:14 |
| dabaR | renegaid: and why do you need to know what type to use? | 23:14 |
| dabaR | renegaid: I don't think the installer asks that. | 23:14 |
| dc0m | All linux distros are flexible enough to fit them to your needs. So using ext4 just because Ubuntu use it as default is not a good reason. | 23:14 |
| Seveas | iceroot, for anout 15.5 more months :) | 23:14 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | renegaid, if you want to live on the bleeding edge, try ext4 it's unstable but kinda cool and fast. If you want stable, go with ext3. | 23:14 |
| iceroot | SpaceGhostC2C: this is ubuntu-support, so ubuntu is default distri | 23:14 |
| seryl | dc0m: All is pretty encompassing, I'd say most. | 23:14 |
| iceroot | SpaceGhostC2C: let me correct this, ubuntu is the only distri here | 23:15 |
| administrador | que cosa es esta | 23:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, Good job. Yes, this is ubuntu, but also I wouldn't pass on information that's only ubuntu specific as if it's true in all linux. I'd make sure to communicate that. | 23:15 |
| Seveas | SpaceGhostC2C, ext4 is definitely not unstable | 23:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | !es administrador | 23:15 |
| erUSUL | !es | administrador | 23:15 |
| ubottu | administrador: 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. | 23:15 |
| dabaR | administrador: are you speaking italian? | 23:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Seveas, umm, have they fixed some of the data loss bugs and other fails in the last two weeks? | 23:16 |
| Seveas | SpaceGhostC2C, so? That happens with any fs :) | 23:16 |
| blakkheim | lol no | 23:16 |
| erUSUL | SpaceGhostC2C: yes; 32 has no problems at all. and the important bugfixes where backported to 31 | 23:16 |
| erUSUL | SpaceGhostC2C: also use jfs for a while and talk about a carppy fs ;P | 23:17 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Seveas, my experience is that ext4 broke on me consistently for 17 reinstalls until I just went ext3. Plus my ext3 filesystems haven't broken ever. | 23:17 |
| dc0m | Seveas: ext4 is not recomended i production evironment. | 23:17 |
| dc0m | in* | 23:17 |
| Seveas | SpaceGhostC2C, lucky you :) ext3 cost me quite a bit of data (I was young and naive and didn't use backups :)) | 23:17 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 | 23:18 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Seveas, I've found that I'm a lucky person. | 23:18 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | I'll see if the newer ext4 isn't as fail as the previous. | 23:18 |
| * erUSUL lost some pr0n once too | 23:18 | |
| administrador | do not | 23:18 |
| erUSUL | ;P | 23:18 |
| dabaR | hee hee | 23:18 |
| dabaR | administrador: what language? | 23:18 |
| Seveas | "On 15 January 2010, Google announced that it would upgrade its storage infrastructure from ext2 to ext4.[7]" | 23:18 |
| erUSUL | dabaR: is spanish | 23:18 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | But, I still say if you need some stability, then ext3 until ext4 has more time being stable under it's belt. | 23:18 |
| Seveas | not that one companys opinion says all, but they do carry some weight :) | 23:18 |
| dc0m | ext4 will certanly replace ext3, but it will be some time until that happens. | 23:19 |

| erUSUL | administrador: entra en #ubuntu-es | 23:19 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Seveas, their decision bro. They can afford data loss. | 23:19 |
| Seveas | SpaceGhostC2C, that is true too | 23:19 |
| administrador | no hay nadie | 23:19 |
| dc0m | SpaceGhostC2C: that was my point, its up to them. | 23:19 |
| erUSUL | SpaceGhostC2C: no they can afford to hire ext2-3-4 developer Ted T'so ;) | 23:19 |
| dabaR | administrador: you might have to wait :-/ Or if you speak english, try here. | 23:20 |
| EPAstor | Honestly, once I had a major external hard drive fail, I decided to set up a real backup server. After that - I was a lot less worried about filesystem details. (rsync'd nightly, with dynamic snapshots taken and not overwritten for 30 days) | 23:20 |
| seryl | EPAstor: raid's nice too... imo. | 23:20 |
| seryl | EPAstor: drive failures shouldn't be something you should worry about | 23:20 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | erUSUL, anytime a cluster goes down in google they have more ready that are set up. The only real problem was in the last year the load balance was focusing to a specific group of clusters overloading them and leaving others idle. | 23:20 |
| administrador | my ingles es malo perdon | 23:20 |
| EPAstor | seryl: Sure... I didn't mention that the backup server is running a mirrored pair. | 23:20 |
| erUSUL | SpaceGhostC2C: Seveas they've got journal-less ext4 mode coded just for them (google used ext2 becouse of this) | 23:21 |
| Seveas | erUSUL, as I said: they arry some weight :) | 23:21 |
| jage | administrator: type /j #ubuntu-es | 23:21 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | erUSUL, why would I want to use it without the journal? Silly.. | 23:21 |
| dabaR | jage: I think he said noone is there. | 23:21 |
| erUSUL | SpaceGhostC2C: well if google do it there is food for thought | 23:21 |
| dabaR | administrador: Maybe later someone will be in ubuntu-es | 23:22 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | We've all been offtopic for so long. Can we move it to #ubuntu-offtopic, but not drop the subject? | 23:22 |
| Seveas | SpaceGhostC2C, in a system where you can live with dataloss, it's fine. Google's BigTable is one of those systems. | 23:22 |
| erUSUL | dabaR: not true i'm op there. | 23:22 |
| dabaR | erUSUL: I thought he said that... | 23:22 |
| jage | no one is there vs. no one is answering | 23:22 |
| Yushatak | can someone tell me a graphical GTK-based FTP client that's in the repo i can grab to use? | 23:22 |
| dabaR | OK, well, all you need to do is get him there somehow :) | 23:22 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Seveas, totally. I agree, hence why I said it earlier. But I doubt the original asker has that sort of system. | 23:22 |
| erUSUL | dabaR: he must have misstyped channel name. he did not enter the channel | 23:22 |
| Seveas | hehe, I don't even remember who the original asker was. The discussion was too good for those details ;) | 23:23 |
| ldlework | How can I force a Current Working Directory for an Application Menu item? | 23:23 |
| erUSUL | Seveas: a common missconception. journal does not prevent data loss it only prevents big fsck after unclean shutdwon | 23:23 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | I'm glad I was a part of it. Can we keep going, but in offtopic? | 23:23 |
| Seveas | erUSUL, replaying the journal avoids dataloss | 23:24 |
| Seveas | not prevents, but avoids :) | 23:24 |
| Nozy | hey all does some know the best way to over ride the "not enough free disk space" error on the upgrade ? | 23:24 |
| dabaR | SpaceGhostC2C: Do you really think it is necessary to keep the channel quiet if noone is asking questions>? | 23:24 |
| dabaR | Nozy: you sure it is an error? | 23:24 |
| iceroot | Nozy: free some disk-space | 23:24 |
| Seveas | Nozy, yeah, delete some files :) | 23:24 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | dabaR, because it cluttered the channel. This chat would be perfect for offtopic. Feel free to debate, but I'm out of here. | 23:26 |
| mneptok | Seveas: it's OK. so am i. | 23:26 |

| Seveas | andrew__, thunderbird, evolution, firefox... | 23:33 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | !best | andrew__ | 23:33 |
| ubottu | andrew__: 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. | 23:33 |
| ldlework | Its like... unless my problem is "Omg ubuntu just crashed my computer, its not booting anymore" I can't get the easy answers in here heh. | 23:33 |
| neil_d | ldlework: have you tried creating a small script to do a 'cd' etc. then using the application launcher to start the script. | 23:33 |

| ldlework | neil_d, tada, good idea. | 23:33 |
| Bertram | hi, I need help with ubuntu, i get error "Grub Loading - error: no such partition and then the grub rescue prompt | 23:33 |
| ldlework | I should have thought of that | 23:33 |

| jp-- | and I'm doing all this to compile a stable version of vlc mozilla plugin | 23:35 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, what operating systems do you have? on which partitions? pastebin fdisk -l output | 23:35 |
| Bertram | is this the right place to get assistance with the grub loader problem I have? | 23:35 |
| jp-- | that won't crash when refreshing a page on firefox. | 23:35 |
| jp-- | awesome. | 23:35 |
| cheezey1 | this is so weird. i have graphics but i don't have the standard stuff like taskbars and stuff. | 23:35 |
| Bertram | ok, thanks, i will explain | 23:35 |
| Bertram | i had dual boot system, xp and ubuntu 9.10 | 23:35 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, how are you logged in now? | 23:36 |
| Bertram | different pc | 23:36 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, do you have an ubuntu live cd? | 23:37 |
| Eremite | Bertram, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 <-- How to reinstall Grub with a Live CD | 23:37 |
| Bertram | yes, version 9.10 | 23:37 |
| Bertram | it does not boot from cd | 23:37 |
| Bertram | i tried to boot from xp cd as well | 23:37 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, edit your boot sequence in your BIOS settings | 23:38 |
| Bertram | i formatted harddrive in other computer | 23:38 |
| Bertram | i cant, it does not allow me | 23:38 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, which hard drive did you format? | 23:38 |
| Bertram | i have to press f12 at boot to boot from cd | 23:38 |
| Eremite | mkanyicy is right, Bertram. You need to hit (probably) DEL or F12 when your PC is just startinmg and then adjust the BIOS to boot from CD first. | 23:38 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, thats fine then | 23:38 |
| Bertram | the hdd that had ubuntu and xp installed | 23:39 |
| Eremite | Bertram, how did the error occure? What made it happen? | 23:39 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, and you formated in now? | 23:39 |

| Halabund | If a window is stretched horizontally all the way, the title bar and borders disappear here on Karmic. | 23:40 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, i am a bit lost | 23:40 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, you HAD windows xp and ubuntu BEFORE. and you took the hdd out to another pc and formatted it? | 23:41 |
| Bertram | yes | 23:41 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, what did you do after formatting? | 23:41 |
| Bertram | but still get the grub rescue prompt and does not want to boot from cd | 23:42 |
| tessarakt | <Bertram> grub rescue prompt | 23:42 |

| tessarakt | you use RAID? | 23:42 |
| Bertram | yes | 23:42 |
| tessarakt | try typing: insmod linux<Enter>normal<Enter> | 23:42 |
| tessarakt | but I do not know how to fix it :-( | 23:42 |
| tessarakt | I have it myself | 23:42 |
| Bertram | it says no such partition | 23:43 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, I have no experience about RAID, i don't think i could be of any help, sorry | 23:43 |
| tessarakt | damn | 23:43 |
| Bertram | ok | 23:43 |
| tessarakt | then your problem is different from mine | 23:43 |
| * jp-- is still unpacking and installing... | 23:43 | |
| tessarakt | umm, what are you trying? | 23:44 |
| tessarakt | booting from CD? | 23:44 |
| Bertram | i cant understand why pc wont boot from cd | 23:44 |
| mkanyicy | Bertram, as a rough suggestion, you should not format a drive if you still want to boot from it | 23:44 |
| tessarakt | you need to tell it in BIOS settings | 23:44 |
| tessarakt | the HDD is bootable after all | 23:44 |
| tessarakt | only the bootloader has nothing to boot | 23:45 |
| Bertram | i tried as i have read other forms and nothing helps | 23:45 |
| Bertram | still stuck at grub rescue prompt | 23:46 |
| cheezey1 | i can't get gdm to start =| | 23:46 |
| cheezey1 | xserver starts... i think | 23:47 |
| privateabstract | You think? | 23:47 |
| Guest_894 | Where can I send a gnome-ppp config file for analysis? | 23:48 |
| cheezey1 | privateabstract: i dunno. i have graphics, but no fancy ones. =P | 23:49 |
