| Gnosiz | Oh, thanks! | 00:00 |
| jrib | corey: why do you want to? Those files are part of packages and actually contain useful information | 00:00 |
| corey | jrib, my disk is only 4gb and it's taking up a large portion of my usable space. | 00:00 |

| jleeperry | Is it possible for Win XP to read files on my 'buntu half of my computer? | 00:01 |
| PsychoMari0 | can i route all traffic from a chroot environment through a virtual interface? | 00:01 |
| jrib | !ext3 | jleeperry | 00:01 |
| ubottu | jleeperry: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 00:01 |
| PsychoMari0 | jleeperry: if you install ext4 drivers | 00:01 |
| jleeperry | Um...wait, okay, what? | 00:01 |
| BluesKaj | jrib, only if your ubuntu partition is ext2 or lower | 00:02 |
| rhodan | Is there a way to know how much progress my distribution upgrade made? In percent or estimated time? | 00:02 |
| jleeperry | Install ext3 or ext4 drivers? | 00:02 |
| naerey | http://www.notionink.in/images/feature/adamimg.png not ubuntu? :/ | 00:02 |
| rww | fs-driver hasn't worked with Ubuntu's default blocksize in a while, iirc. | 00:02 |
| mcurran | Anyone ever get a TRAP 0000006 error when trying to chainload windows xp with grub? | 00:02 |
| jrib | BluesKaj: ext3 works. And while I haven't tried using with ext4, I don't see why it wouldn't | 00:02 |
| jleeperry | And install the drivers on the win side or the ubuntu side? | 00:02 |
| PsychoMari0 | jleeperry: whichever format your partition is in | 00:02 |
| JonathanEllis | Craig_Dem: Unfortunately handbrake is not available on Hardy | 00:02 |
| jrib | BluesKaj: basically, ext2, ext3, and ext4 should all be mountable as ext2 afaik | 00:02 |
| cwheeler | can I replace the real time ubuntu studio kernel with an ubuntu kernel without causing problmes? | 00:02 |
| S1n1ster | hey | 00:03 |
| PsychoMari0 | jleeperry: in windows install the driver corresponding to your filesystem on the ubuntu partition | 00:03 |
| cwheeler | I suspect a problem handling interrupts | 00:03 |
| ChrisTX | naerey, that is windows + rainmeter | 00:03 |

| perryarmstrong | hey i got firefox 3.7 and firebug is not compatible with it..is there any alternative | 00:04 |
| jleeperry | Umm, okay. | 00:04 |
| * xfact totally confused | 00:04 | |
| BluesKaj | jrib, well, tell me the secret cause I havent been able to get ntfs to read ext3 or 4 f | 00:04 |
| PsychoMari0 | is it possible to assign a virtual network device to a chroot? | 00:05 |
| jrib | BluesKaj: no secret, nothing special to be done. (I've only done it with ext3 myself) | 00:05 |

| gyrfalcon | anything like rainmeter for linux window managers? | 00:06 |

| naerey | jrib: http://rainmeter.net/RainCMS/ | 00:07 |
| rhodan | S1n1ster: No, you can only use Music++, Music# with mono and jMusic. | 00:07 |
| gyrfalcon | jrib, the link that was posted a bit ago"<ChrisTX> http://rainmeter.net/RainCMS/" | 00:07 |
| Craig_Dem | Conky is a phenomenal application. | 00:07 |
| perryarmstrong | hey i got firefox 3.7 and firebug is not compatible with it..is there any alternative? | 00:08 |
| iAmerikan | rainmeter is what crashed my windows 7, and made me install ubuntu. | 00:08 |
| PsychoMari0 | outleradam not without a specific program installed on the client | 00:08 |
| JonathanEllis | S1n1ster: Do you still have your windows partition? If so you can open it with the file manager and access any files in there | 00:08 |
| naerey | iAmerikan :D | 00:08 |
| outleradam | PsychoMari0: is there a package available? | 00:08 |
| epcom | fuckyu | 00:08 |

| JULinuxUser | Can someone please tell me how to edit the new Grub 2 in Ubuntu 9.10 so that Windows XP boots first? | 00:15 |
| direpenguin | no? i dont know what your talking about, all i did after i put the ISO on a disk was restart my computer and booted from the disk | 00:15 |
| jrib | !grub2 | JULinuxUser | 00:15 |
| ubottu | JULinuxUser: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 00:15 |
| perryarmstrong | rhodan; but there's no such option i searched....and my firefox is crashing frequesntly | 00:15 |
| perryarmstrong | *frequesntly | 00:15 |
| perryarmstrong | *frequently | 00:15 |
| rhodan | perryarmstrong: Then stop using unstable software. | 00:15 |

| rhodan | Skrotniklas: Sure, query me your IP. | 00:15 |
| PsychoMari0 | durepenguin: when you booted the disk, did it show the ubuntu logo, and ask for a language? | 00:15 |
| perryarmstrong | rhodan; kk | 00:16 |
| direpenguin | yes | 00:16 |
| shoot^ | Hey folks. I've just installed Ubuntu Server on my VPS, and created a new user. However, whenever I SSH in, the prompt displays '$' (rather than the actual hostname), and pressing "up", "down", "home", "tab" etc. do not behave normally, printing strings of symbols (eg. ^[[A) ...suggestions? | 00:16 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: there should have been options like; try ubuntu, install ubuntu, check disk? | 00:16 |
| direpenguin | i got all of that, but when i was installing, when it got to 29% it it said i had a bad DVD/CD then it shut down, then my computer had nothing on it, no OS or anything | 00:16 |
| Skrotniklas | rhodan: 91.205.63.194 | 00:16 |
| wilhart_ | where can i get xbmc for lucid | 00:16 |
| Guest38459 | does anyone know of any mac software that creates a bootable USB drive? Im on my brothers macbook right now because my PC is toast and im tring to get ubuntu 9.10 on it | 00:16 |
| direpenguin | i didnt see a check disk | 00:16 |
| direpenguin | when windows is done isntalling il try again | 00:17 |
| direpenguin | right now im on my laptop | 00:17 |
| rhodan | Skrotniklas: NAT? | 00:17 |
| direpenguin | but can i creat a partition while in linux so i can have both linux and windows | 00:17 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: you mean dual boot? | 00:18 |
| direpenguin | yea | 00:18 |
| Skrotniklas | rhodan: How do I check NAT, sorry my skills are a bit limited | 00:18 |
| jeeves_Moss | how can I find and mount a NTFS partition that's built on a RAID1 stripe set? | 00:18 |
| rhodan | Skrotniklas: The port is 5901, as revealed by nmap. | 00:18 |
| rhodan | Skrotniklas: 91.205.63.194:5901 | 00:18 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: if you install ubuntu after windows, it automatically wants to partition and set up grub for dualboot | 00:18 |
| direpenguin | the automatic thing is install side by side | 00:19 |
| direpenguin | is that the same thing? | 00:19 |
| perryarmstrong | rhodan; i removed firefox-3.7 and installed 3.6...but i am not getting the updated firefox...instead the 3.0 is opening | 00:19 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: yeah that;s dual boot | 00:19 |
| JonathanEllis | direpenguin: yes | 00:19 |
| direpenguin | cant i set a way for it to have as much space as i want it to? | 00:19 |
| Skrotniklas | rhodan: THANK YOU! Works great! | 00:19 |
| rhodan | Wow, I'm exhausted. | 00:19 |
| direpenguin | or would it just share it with vista | 00:19 |
| direpenguin | like if vista has 100GB left unbuntu has 100GB | 00:20 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: there is a colourful bar when you get to the partitioning part of the installer, there is also a slider on that bar, you can move it around and share the disk space as you wish | 00:20 |
| direpenguin | ah, but thats when i click "install side by side"? | 00:21 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: are you talking about when you boot off the livecd; or when you run the program inside windows? | 00:21 |
| direpenguin | boot from the CD | 00:22 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: right, thought so, the defaulting radio button is to install them dual boot, i cant remember the exact wording, but it is something like isntall side by side yes. that is the option it seems you want to choose | 00:22 |
| direpenguin | alright | 00:23 |
| direpenguin | i didnt even know i could install it while running windows at the same time | 00:23 |
| direpenguin | anywaym, whats a good progra i should use to burn so i can be assured nothing goes wrong like last time | 00:23 |
| direpenguin | last time i used imgburn | 00:23 |

| visik7 | hi | 00:24 |
| visik7 | anyone got the "Scan Button" works on linux ? | 00:24 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: ive only ever used Roxio, after that i used brasero becuase i didnt have windows left | 00:24 |
| direpenguin | and roxio isnt free is it? | 00:24 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: no | 00:25 |
| direpenguin | is there a free trial | 00:25 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: possibly, it came preinstalled on my computer so i dont know | 00:25 |

| Guest_1549 | AlphaOne want a medal? | 00:26 |
| AlphaOne | yes I do! | 00:26 |
| AlphaOne | I spent all day on it | 00:26 |
| AlphaOne | today is my first day of Linux | 00:26 |
| AlphaOne | question, I got an old laptop too. 500mhz, 64mb ram. Windows 98 era. what version of linux will make this fast? | 00:27 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: actually, i was wrong, i used isorecorder as well once, that worked well enough | 00:27 |
| EricBlade | alphaone: "fast" according to whom? | 00:27 |
| AlphaOne | faster | 00:27 |
| PsychoMari0 | AplhaOne: Gentoo or Xubuntu would make it run acceptably | 00:27 |
| EricBlade | alphaone: avoid X11, imo | 00:27 |
| AlphaOne | what about Damn Small Linux? | 00:27 |
| devrethman | Did you just suggest that somebody run Gentoo on a 500mhz computer? | 00:27 |
| syn-ack | AlphaOne: DSL is good from a liveCD but honestly I wouldnt install it | 00:28 |
| EricBlade | i actually have a DSL install on a 166Mhz pentium with 48mb ram .. it runs alright, as long as you stay out of X | 00:28 |
| syn-ack | devrethman: why not? | 00:28 |
| AlphaOne | syn-ack how come? | 00:28 |
| PsychoMari0 | AlphaOne: C**p hardware detection. Look at Puppy linux, that worked on an old laptop of mine | 00:28 |
| direpenguin | what will the disk check do | 00:28 |
| devrethman | syn-ack: Because updates take a month and a half... | 00:28 |
| EricBlade | i did upgrade it very painstakingly to whatever was current in the unstable debian tree as of about 6 months ago when i built it | 00:28 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: tell you if the disk has an error on it, if it does it might not install properly | 00:28 |
| direpenguin | oh ok | 00:29 |
| syn-ack | devrethman: dude, listen, I ran Gentoo on my Blueberry G3 333 with 98 megs of RAM and while it did take a while, I think it was more than worth it | 00:29 |
| direpenguin | is iso recorder easy to use | 00:29 |
| syn-ack | direpenguin: yes, as long as you read the manual | 00:29 |
| EricBlade | question re: ubuntu. i have ubuntu on a netbook (eee) .. and i'd like to see if i can get it to automount a swapfile on a memory card when it's inserted .. anyone know how i'd look into setting that up? like some kind of a script to run on media insert | 00:29 |
| direpenguin | oh kk | 00:29 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: i think so, just choose the iso, choose the drive and burn | 00:30 |
| devrethman | syn-ack: If you say so... | 00:30 |
| direpenguin | alright | 00:30 |
| wilhart_ | i'm hearing static really loud wheni open mplayer | 00:30 |
| EricBlade | turn the volume down | 00:30 |
| jrib | EricBlade: google "writing udev rules" I guess | 00:30 |
| wilhart_ | what could it be. | 00:30 |
| EricBlade | ty jrib | 00:30 |
| PsychoMari0 | willhart_:the audio drivers might not be working with your card correctly | 00:31 |
| EricBlade | jrib: looks great, i never would've guessed how to search for that one | 00:31 |

| ubottu | loco: 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. :-) | 00:33 |
| PsychoMari0 | JonathanEllis: They are all dvd ripping programs, do you want the audio track from a dvd; or music which has been burnt to dvd? | 00:33 |
| loco | no asterisks peolpe | 00:34 |
| JonathanEllis | PsychoMari0: I want a short section of audio from a DVD | 00:34 |
| JonathanEllis | PsychoMari0: I have extracted audio from a DVD using VLC before and it worked fine so I dont know why its not working now | 00:34 |
| PsychoMari0 | JonathanEllis: Look at k9copy, its what i use to 'back up' my dvds. i think you can disable the video ripping and just get the audio | 00:35 |

| PsychoMari0 | hipitihop: is it permissions problem? | 00:42 |
| nerdy_kid | can i use dd to image and restore an HD? | 00:43 |
| PsychoMari0 | nerdy_kid: yes | 00:44 |
| direpenguin | will i be able to do cool stuff in linux like in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4Fbk52Mk1w if i only got like 800MB of RAM and a nvidia geforece6150LE graphics card | 00:44 |
| capron | nerdy_kid, It helps alot if the disk have the same size | 00:44 |
| PsychoMari0 | direpenguin: theoretically yes, but it will murder your performance | 00:44 |
| jalmeida | hi. I like ubuntu very much | 00:44 |
| nerdy_kid | capron or.... | 00:45 |
| jalmeida | but I need to use windows in my work | 00:45 |
| jalmeida | =( | 00:45 |
| nerdy_kid | capron i need to replace an HD and i am not going to go through the emotional pain of reinstalling Windows | 00:45 |
| hipitihop | PsychoMari0, no idea .. I'm just in the festival prompt and it says "Linux: can't open /dev/dsp" | 00:46 |
| PsychoMari0 | hipithop: what happens if you run the same command with 'sudo'? | 00:46 |
| nerdy_kid | hipitihop should try espeak i personaly like it better the festival | 00:46 |
| capron | nerdy_kid, yes it is a good thing too use dd | 00:46 |
| hipitihop | PsychoMari0, just tried via sudo and same result. | 00:46 |
| hipitihop | nerdy_kid, rpos n cons ? | 00:47 |
| nerdy_kid | capron ok, but the disks will be different sizes, how much of an effect would that have? | 00:47 |
| hipitihop | nerdy_kid, sorry, keyboard mind of it's own...let try again... why do you think so ? | 00:47 |
| capron | nerdy_kid, Then the new disk will only use size of dd image | 00:48 |
| nerdy_kid | hipitihop festival had a habit of cutting the ends of the sentences i gave it off, it struck me as very buggy. espeak in my experance is very stable, and i prefer the voice to festivals. | 00:49 |

| elementalbrand | hi, im having these troubles error: ‘WSAESOCKTNOSUPPORT’ undeclared (first use in this function) | 00:59 |
| titan_ark | semitones, http://paste.ubuntu.com/377257/ | 00:59 |
| semitones | titan_ark: huh, I don't know why it would do Ign | 01:00 |
| Pianoman13 | digikam is not really a photo management software, it is closer to Photoshop of something like that | 01:01 |
| titan_ark | semitones, even I cant figure that out | 01:01 |
| jimc | Okay, I'll try again. | 01:01 |
| semitones | titan_ark: you're trying to install the latest OO.o? | 01:01 |
| Pianoman13 | i need something in linux that will permit me to import my 35,000 picture database and re-organize it for Ubuntu 9.10 usage | 01:01 |
| jimc | samba: unable to mount location: failed to retrieve share list from server | 01:02 |
| PsychoMari0 | Pianoman13:: what do you mean by reorganise? | 01:02 |
| Pianoman13 | i have been stuck with this problem since i started with ubuntu 3 weeks ago | 01:02 |
| titan_ark | semitones, well i was, i found a link that said to add the ppa and try but it dint work. and those 404 errors came up which i could clear out after removing the OOo ppa. | 01:02 |
| Pianoman13 | the ACDSee software catalogues the photos | 01:02 |
| titan_ark | semitones, would you know how to install the latest OOo via terminal so that I can get updates | 01:02 |
| Pianoman13 | there is nothing like this in linux that i have found so far | 01:02 |
| ChrisTX | elementalbrand, somewhere you code got a lack of #ifdefs | 01:03 |
| titan_ark | i dont want to DL the .tar and install | 01:03 |
| Garlique | I am having a very simple problem with bash is there anyone here knowledgeable in basic bash | 01:03 |
| ChrisTX | WSASOCKETNOSUPPORT is a windows error code lol | 01:03 |
| Pianoman13 | so i can only look at individual photos but not at groups | 01:03 |
| jmspeex | I'm considering buying a new laptop with the latest Arrandale integrated graphics. Anyone knows whether that's supported under Karmic? | 01:03 |
| semitones | titan_ark: I wouldn't want to install from source either -- but I haven't tried getting the latest one, only the one in the standard repos | 01:03 |
| blakkheim | jmspeex: it's not | 01:03 |
| PsychoMari0 | pianoman13: i imagine with that many photos most things would crash, except command line things, but then you cant view them | 01:03 |
| jmspeex | blakkheim: how about Lucid? | 01:03 |
| semitones | titan_ark: any particular reason why you want the lastest one? | 01:03 |
| Pianoman13 | i would like to try using wine | 01:03 |
| blakkheim | jmspeex: depends on what kernel lucid uses | 01:04 |
| Jordan_U | Pianoman13, Have you tried gthumb? | 01:04 |
| Pianoman13 | but i get install error | 01:04 |
| Jordan_U | Pianoman13, Or picasa? | 01:04 |
| jmspeex | blakkheim: it's "only" a kernel issue or there's X issues as well? | 01:04 |
| Garlique | syntax error near unexpected token `else' | 01:04 |
| Pianoman13 | so far i have tried f-spot, digikam, gimp | 01:04 |
| Garlique | is the error im recieving | 01:04 |
| WaY | hello | 01:04 |
| elementalbrand | the thing is that i have install that project in others linux system, and works ok | 01:04 |
| titan_ark | semitones, why would you not want to install the latest from the source? I am unable to open MS Office's .***x format files | 01:04 |
| WaY | is any way of jailbreaking iphone from ubuntu? | 01:04 |
| blakkheim | jmspeex: i know it's a kernel issue first but i don't know about X yet | 01:05 |
| charles__ | :) | 01:05 |
| jmspeex | OK, then I guess I'll wait a bit | 01:05 |
| semitones | titan_ark: installing from source can be difficult -- though it's often very easy. Have you tried opening those files up in the standard Open Office? | 01:05 |
| erichammond | On Jaunty bash prompt, hitting Ctrl-C gives a new bash prompt without output to current line. On Karmic, it displays "^C" then gives new bash prompt. Ideas on how to revert this behavior? readline config? stty config? terminfo config? bash config? ...? | 01:05 |
| Pianoman13 | maybe i should try gthumb | 01:06 |

| billythekid | Lord: it will be | 01:37 |
| LordHawke13 | Somehting like `$ chown ${SUDOER} ${OUTPUTFILE}` | 01:37 |
| billythekid | Lord: thats not the clean way | 01:38 |
| LordHawke13 | Please tell me there's a way without just putting MY username in the script. . . | 01:38 |
| LordHawke13 | I want the owner to be the person who runs the script. | 01:38 |
| billythekid | Lord: open a shell, and issue "sudo su" | 01:38 |

| chetnick | LordHawke13: you can get way beter help about that on #bash | 01:39 |
| direpenguin | Is 30GB enough space of linux, if i only have about 10GB of music and wont be downloading much stuff besides some pictures off the internet | 01:39 |
| direpenguin | and linux updates | 01:39 |
| derrick__ | 30 is fine for it | 01:39 |
| derrick__ | deponds on how long you plan on having it hough | 01:39 |
| direpenguin | uhm | 01:40 |
| billythekid | Lord: if you want the owner to be the person that owns the script, it can not be run as root | 01:40 |
| direpenguin | around 5 months or so | 01:40 |
| derrick__ | you never have enough space | 01:40 |
| direpenguin | i dont really download much stuff | 01:40 |

| derrick__ | yea you wont run into problems if you don't download stuff | 01:40 |
| direpenguin | alright cool | 01:41 |
| direpenguin | im just going to use it for general use | 01:41 |
| billythekid | Lord: my bad, its chmod | 01:41 |
| chetnick | LordHawke13: you should mount image as root to some dir, and then change permissions for the dir, and then change to needed user, and copy files. | 01:41 |
| direpenguin | Listening to Music, MSN, internet stuffs | 01:41 |
| titan_ark | anyone able to get the OOo 3.2 working? | 01:41 |
| billythekid | <duh> | 01:41 |
| nexus_ | direpenguin: Yes it is pluged in an I have checked all connections | 01:41 |
| billythekid | <feeling a bit stupid> | 01:41 |
| chetnick | LordHawke13: i hope you understood what i wanted to say. | 01:41 |
| LordHawke13 | chetnick, But how does the script know the username of the person who initiated it? I can change the ownership of the file afterwards but I don't want to have to do that. | 01:42 |
| direpenguin | nexus: try unplugging it and blowing into it, and the slot you plug it into, there could be dust blocking the connection | 01:42 |
| billythekid | chetnick: easier to chmod +s | 01:42 |
| Damianos | I need help getting my ubuntu to boot | 01:42 |
| nikhil | nexus : the best way is to slightly rub the pins with an pencil eraser | 01:42 |
| chetnick | billythekid: what does +s do? | 01:43 |
| direpenguin | will unbuntu run smoother then my vista does? i only have like 800MB of ram and a nvidia geforce 6150LE graphics card | 01:43 |
| billythekid | chetnick: adds the sticky bit | 01:43 |
| === Bluebie is now known as Guest7781 | ||
| chetnick | LordHawke13: persone that initiated the script? | 01:43 |
| chetnick | LordHawke13: if it involves mounting than it has to be superuser. | 01:43 |
| Damianos | I installed ubuntu and got a working LTSP server going and I loved every minute of it...I then installed XP onto a separate HDD and now my ubuntu won't boot | 01:43 |
| billythekid | chetnick: if you own a file and set that, it lets others run it as you | 01:43 |
| MilitantPotato | direpenguin: yes, Xubuntu would fly | 01:43 |
| direpenguin | i dont know if im using xbuntu | 01:44 |
| chetnick | billythekid: that's perfect solution for him then. | 01:44 |
| direpenguin | im installing what ever was on the homepage of unbuntu's website | 01:44 |
| LordHawke13 | I want the BASH script to change the ownership of the resulting DMG file to the person who typed `$ sudo makedmg . . . . .` | 01:44 |
| almoxarife | a wubi question, twice now, right after a update where the kernel was replaced with an updated version my grub loader was trashed, any ideas what may cause it? | 01:44 |
| carbm2 | Damianos, You probably need to boot the Ubuntu Alternative cd and select Rescue from the bootup. Then select reinstall Grub. | 01:44 |
| chetnick | LordHawke13: take a look at those sticky bits chmod +s, like bilithekid said. | 01:44 |
| Damianos | sweet...I will give that try...thanks carbm2 | 01:44 |
| MilitantPotato | direpenguin: once it's installed, you'd open Synaptic, in the search type xubuntu, and install xubuntu-desktop | 01:45 |
| Dr_Willis | LordHawke13: make use of the $USER variable | 01:45 |
| direpenguin | do i want that? | 01:45 |
| MilitantPotato | direpenguin: at the login screen you can choose between the default (gnome) and Xubuntu | 01:45 |
| billythekid | does anyone know if bcmwl 5.60.48.36 is being packaged for karmic? | 01:46 |
| Semitones | titan_ark, hey, any luck with installing OO.o 3.2? | 01:46 |
| MilitantPotato | direpenguin: sure, Xubuntu is easier on resources, would be worth trying, wont break anything | 01:46 |
| lasume | Brasero failed, my CD drive is active, but the disc won't eject. Help. | 01:46 |
| LordHawke13 | Dr_Willis, Since SUDO is used, ${USER} = root | 01:46 |
| direpenguin | i just got some GNU Grub menu up, i dont know what to type | 01:46 |
| Dr_Willis | LordHawke13: incorrect... try 'sudo echo $USER' | 01:46 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo echo $USER | 01:46 |
| Dr_Willis | willis | 01:47 |
| carbm2 | lasume, you can use a straightened paperclip to use the eject button on the front of the cdburner. Or restart... it would eject then. | 01:47 |
| Dr_Willis | LordHawke13: if you did 'sudo su' -> USER = root | 01:47 |
| lasume | carbm2: I'd rather do something that doesn't involve making lots of noise or rebooting. | 01:47 |
| titan_ark | Semitones, nope :( tired of trying | 01:47 |
| lasume | carbm2: Is it a software problem? | 01:47 |
| direpenguin | anyone know what im suppose to do at this GRUB menu, i have no idea what im suppose to type | 01:47 |
| billythekid | dr: easier with chmod +s | 01:47 |
| MilitantPotato | direpenguin: you only show a grub menu? | 01:48 |
| direpenguin | yes | 01:48 |
| direpenguin | it wants me to type a command | 01:48 |
| Dr_Willis | billythekid: i missed the whole problem.. if its about mac dmg file.s. i proberly dont want to know more. :P | 01:48 |
| carbm2 | lasume, Hardware usually... a failed disc just freezes the drive sometimes. Drop to Terminal and type "eject" | 01:48 |
| MilitantPotato | direpenguin: is ubuntu installed? | 01:48 |
| lasume | carbm2: Doesn't work. No output. | 01:48 |
| Semitones | titan_ark, does open office 3.1 work for you? | 01:48 |
| billythekid | dr: they want to run a command as root by any user | 01:48 |
| direpenguin | it should be, i installed it using Wubi | 01:48 |
| direpenguin | and when i booted up my computer i choose to load up unbuntu | 01:49 |
| Dr_Willis | billythekid: they could make a sudoers file entry to allow that for a specific command | 01:49 |
| Semitones | titan_ark, it's a lot easier to install | 01:49 |
| Dr_Willis | billythekid: or as you said. the suid bit.. but that wont work for scripts | 01:49 |
| titan_ark | Semitones, yes it does. except for the docx files | 01:49 |
| LordHawke13 | Dr_Willis, You have to type SUDO to run the script. That makes the $USER variable root when it's used in the script. | 01:49 |
| === jon is now known as Guest82808 | ||
| Dr_Willis | LordHawke13: it dosent seem to do that here. let me try it with a script | 01:49 |
| billythekid | dr: sounds like a lot if user may be involved, perhaps giving them sudoers is too much power | 01:49 |
| LordHawke13 | Dr_Willis, You got email or IM? I could send this to you. | 01:50 |
| Semitones | titan_ark, hmm -- well, if you're able to wait for Lucid Lynx, it will probably have the never version of OOo | 01:50 |
| Semitones | comes out in April | 01:50 |
| danbhfive | anyone using ubuntuone? I'm finding that it doesn't sync when I ask it to. How can I get it to sync? | 01:50 |
| MilitantPotato | direpenguin: did you install it on C:? | 01:50 |
| billythekid | dr: he wanted an executable owned by root to be executed by anyone | 01:50 |
| direpenguin | yes | 01:50 |
| Dr_Willis | LordHawke13: Hmm. yep. a seperate script does do it that way but not via the commandline.. Interesting how its doing that. | 01:50 |
| titan_ark | Semitones, yes i guess i would have to, for a number of reasons. the power management daemon on this is also screwed | 01:51 |
| billythekid | dr: you have to be root when you set the s bit | 01:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Must because its spawning a different shwll. | 01:51 |
| LordHawke13 | billythekid, It has to be run by root to use `mount` but I need it to know 'who' run the file through sudo. | 01:51 |
| Semitones | did you try asking for help with that already, titan_ark? | 01:51 |
| billythekid | Lord: so u want to track who used it? | 01:51 |
| LordHawke13 | Yes | 01:52 |
| billythekid | does anyone know if bcmwl 5.60.48.36 is being packaged for karmic? | 01:52 |
| titan_ark | Semitones, yes i have. it is a bug with certain hp and dell notebooks. a patch is available but people advised me against doing a kernel recompile | 01:52 |
| titan_ark | Semitones, the bug is reported in launchpad | 01:52 |

| Jordan_U | !root | bharat_ | 01:59 |
| ubottu | bharat_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 01:59 |
| Dr_Willis | bharat_: use sudo not su | 01:59 |
| titan_ark | Dr_Willis, could i pastebin the results of my HDD info? there quite a few partitions. I want to merge a 9 GB partition with my current 10 GB | 01:59 |

| Dr_Willis | Skrotniklas: and how did you start the vnc SERVICE ? 'vncserver' command ? | 02:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Skrotniklas: or are you using the gnome desktop built in vnc SERVER feature? | 02:26 |

| Skrotniklas | Dr_Willis: Vncserver | 02:27 |
| Trek | Semitones: it did | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Skrotniklas: if you ran 'vncserver' then it should keep the vnc desktop alive if you just close the client. If you LOGOUT of the desktop it should close the vncserver as well | 02:27 |
| Semitones | Trek, awesome! | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Skrotniklas: try reconnecting and see if it sstill there | 02:27 |

| Jenna | it worked thanx so much guys | 02:27 |
| buzzaldrin | guys id really like help with this if anyone knows :// | 02:28 |
| Skrotniklas | Dr_Willis: Gnome | 02:28 |
| blakkheim | !please | buzzaldrin | 02:28 |
| ubottu | buzzaldrin: 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 | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Skrotniklas: you could always just manually kill the vncserver, | 02:28 |
| lonnie | cool, it did it | 02:28 |
| Skrotniklas | Dr_Willis: Yes but that is not very convinient | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Skrotniklas: also if running gnome as the same user More then Once.. you an have some odd quirks. ie: if its running on the remote box, and as a vncserver ont he remote box. or if you got more then 1 vncserver running gnome | 02:28 |

| Skrotniklas | Dr_Willis: I may have several vncservers running, I-ll check that | 02:30 |

| almoxarife | why not kill the vnc server as the last act on vnc? I drove 30 miles one time cause I told the machine to shut down via vnc, not smart | 02:32 |
| buzzaldrin | Is anybody here good with troubleshooting Ubuntu 9.10? I've got a bad problem | 02:32 |

| frankS2 | Anyone know if there is anything like "yttalk" just for even more participants? | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | almoxarife: vnc runs a script to do the startup/stuff to run. if that script never exists.. then vncserver wont. | 02:33 |
| lonnie | what is yttalk? | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | almoxarife: depending on how things run, you can get a vnc desktop with just X going. which is a bit of a pain | 02:34 |
| grndslm | it's that time of the year where i reevaluate 64bit linux/ubuntu... | 02:34 |

| phillip | im new to the whole linux world... im trying to install plesk but have never used the terminal command line interface before | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: been using 64bit here for about 2+ years now with no hassles that i can rember | 02:34 |
| lonnie | phillip, try: sudo apt-get install plesk | 02:35 |
| phillip | ok | 02:35 |

| grndslm | i'm thinking prolly not | 02:35 |
| sslaccessrocks | anyone know of an easy way to install *.deb as non-root in Ubuntu? | 02:36 |
| grndslm | sslaccessrocks: impossible | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: i dont see how the type of hard disk would matter in the 64 vs 32 bit debate | 02:36 |
| grndslm | unless you're referring to using sudo, which is still root | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: its about processing speeds/progrm speeds/memory access | 02:36 |
| grndslm | Dr_Willis.... well... i mean benefit of 64bit is mostly compiling | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: compiling? Not at all. | 02:36 |
| grndslm | memory access comes into play only when more than 4gb, tho, eh? | 02:37 |
| phillip | i downloaded the package from the site in tar.gz format | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: thats one are it helps in. but not the only | 02:37 |

| grndslm | Dr_Willis, basically... i don't see how i could possibly get more of an improvement than this ssd i just got | 02:37 |
| lonnie | oh, I see. | 02:38 |
| grndslm | so if there's still issues with packages not being made for 64bit... i guess i'll have to stick with 32bit :( | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: its not about drive access. its about data processing. If th | 02:38 |
| lonnie | double click it. | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: i can think of 1 program ive not found in 64bit | 02:38 |
| lonnie | then drag and drop its contents to decompress | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=616&num=1 | 02:38 |
| grndslm | right... but in realworld scenarios, ssd torque is more important than 64bit horsepower if you HAD to pick between the two | 02:38 |
| phillip | i did it'll install one by one but it doesnt seem like it should be like that | 02:38 |
| buzzaldrin | ok guys, well im going to try to reinstall ubuntu but make it not require me to log in, ill tell you how it goes | 02:38 |

| Dr_Willis | grndslm: i do video reencodeing. and 64bit helps me more then 32bit would.. I dint see how ssd really affexts it all. | 02:39 |
| Seven_Six_Two | lol...sorry | 02:39 |
| lonnie | phillip, send me the file. | 02:39 |

| lucas_ | hey all, i have a litle question, which opengl mode is the best for desktop effects on kde? | 02:40 |
| phillip | i tried going to the user account section | 02:40 |
| lonnie | sometimes you can do it by right clicking the executible file | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: thers some more up to date bencmhark articals then that one.. i saw a good one the other day at that site i think | 02:40 |
| grndslm | Dr_Willis, "video reencoding" i can understand | 02:40 |

| grndslm | i think that boxee is not released in 64bit for linux yet! | 02:40 |
| zanberdo | I'm trying to build a project from source. I'm passing gcc -lnet but ld informs me that ld: can not find -lnet. What development package will satisfy the -lnet directive? | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: and video playback if the players support it properly | 02:40 |
| grndslm | that's one example, but i'm not 1% on that | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: boxxee has 64bit | 02:40 |
| grndslm | *100% | 02:40 |
| grndslm | hmm... | 02:40 |
| lonnie | another way I do it, is like this sudo nautilus | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: i got it installed here. | 02:40 |
| grndslm | wow... well, i guess it's worth a shot then | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: latest geexbox/enna has 64bit also | 02:40 |
| lonnie | That opens up the file browser with you having super priv. | 02:41 |
| grndslm | Dr_Willis, what is the one package you were talking about that didn't install?? | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: i can think of ONE app (zsnes) thats not 64bit | 02:41 |
| lonnie | then navigate the folder you unzipped | 02:41 |
| grndslm | hmm... that's kinda whack | 02:41 |
| lonnie | then try installing | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: iuts because that program uses 32bit assembly for speed on old machines | 02:41 |
| sslaccessrocks | judget: yes, using cygwin | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: its like 80% assembly code. :) | 02:41 |
| phillip | the file is 650mbs | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: ters other snes emulators that work just as well | 02:41 |
| sslaccessrocks | grndslm: it is possible to make programs from source without root and install to user folders, why not *.deb? | 02:41 |
| grndslm | Dr_Willis, so multimedia codes, flash, java, etc. are all traditional "aptitude install" or whatever your preferred installer :) ?? | 02:42 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: i use my 63bit systems sae as i do the 32bit - i rarely notice any differancwe in the ussage at all | 02:42 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: same install commands and so forth. | 02:42 |
| Trek | Dr_Willis: you mean 62-bit | 02:42 |

| grndslm | sslaccessrocks, "install to user folders" is deceiving terminology... if you just want to unpack it... "unp" is a great program i use to unpack most things, pretty sure it works for deb to... then you can move the files wherever you have permissions to, of course | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 02:43 |
| tottiq | lol | 02:43 |
| lonnie | phillip, install this too: sudo apt-get install nautilus-gksu | 02:43 |

| sslaccessrocks | grndslm: and these files will be already compiled, made, and make installed? | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: heres a newer artical -> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_32_pae&num=1 | 02:43 |
| grndslm | sslaccessrocks, ask the guy who created the package!! :) | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | compare the performance of Linux between using 32-bit, 32-bit PAE, and 64-bit kernels. ---> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_32_pae&num=1 | 02:44 |
| almoxarife | sslaccessrocks: imagine a self installing deb, what is another name for that? | 02:44 |
| grndslm | Dr_Willis, that reminds me.. what does PAE stand for? | 02:44 |
| phillip | ok it installed | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | almoxarife: thers the autopackage and some other odd formats that no one ever uses any more it seems :) | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: lets 32bit get more then 4gb of ram access | 02:45 |
| M25 | I'm looking for a virtual midi keyboard (the kind with octaves, not enter keys), that works without using Jack. Any recommendations? | 02:45 |
| unperson | My (possibly incorrect) understanding is the hibernate writes RAM contents to the swap partition. Is it possible to setup the OS to not use a swap partition for virtual memory but still be able to hibernate? | 02:45 |
| grndslm | ahh... was wondering how i got access to that extra .8gb or whatever it was!! | 02:45 |
| grndslm | neato | 02:45 |
| sslaccessrocks | almoxarife: i don't need it to be self installing, just installed to a user folder without root access involved | 02:45 |
| unperson | i.e., still have a partition for hibernation but use it only for that purpose. | 02:45 |
| lonnie | phillip, with that install (may require reboot to take effect, don't know) each thing you right-click on in the file broswer, should have an "open as admin" option | 02:45 |
| grndslm | sslaccessrocks, what .deb is this? | 02:46 |
| almoxarife | sslaccessrocks: exactly, suffer a bit, give it your password | 02:46 |
| phillip | nice | 02:46 |
| sslaccessrocks | grndslm: any *.deb file, not one program in particular | 02:46 |
| sslaccessrocks | almoxarife: i have no root access on this computer | 02:46 |
| almoxarife | sslaccessrocks: exactly | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: in some cases 32bit kernel with PAE is worse then just the 32bit kernel | 02:46 |
| sslaccessrocks | almoxarife: why i asked | 02:46 |
| almoxarife | sslaccessrocks: that comp have an owner? | 02:47 |
| grndslm | sslaccessrocks, "sudo aptitude install unp" then you can just "unp any.deb" and it will strip naked for you :D | 02:47 |
| sslaccessrocks | grndslm: i can't sudo (root access required), im compiling from source | 02:47 |
| almoxarife | grndslm: he can't sudo | 02:48 |
| phillip | #plesk | 02:48 |
| grndslm | he just said he didn't want to sudo to install | 02:48 |
| lonnie | phillip, if you want to benefit from my experience, you can install everything I've ever need on ubuntu, with this one command: http://pastebin.com/fb1bc46a | 02:48 |
| almoxarife | grndslm: he forgot to say he can't sudo | 02:48 |
| lonnie | will take while to download, but it will all install | 02:48 |
| grndslm | ;) | 02:48 |
| M25 | sslaccessrocks: do you have all the libraries/dependencies for the program? then you can compile with make run instead of make install | 02:48 |
| sslaccessrocks | M25: yeah, its a perl script, so no compilation needed :) | 02:49 |
| M25 | sslaccessrocks: do you have perl? | 02:49 |
| unperson | A related question: Is it possible to use, say, an external drive for swap (I would think so), and if so, any idea what would happen should that disk be absent at boot? | 02:49 |
| lonnie | at one point, though, you will have to interact to get the java runtime installed | 02:49 |
| sslaccessrocks | M25: yes, its installed by default in ubuntu | 02:49 |
| lonnie | but it will be menu driven | 02:49 |
| sslaccessrocks | grndslm: thanks, that software fixed my problems i believe, i can now install *.deb without root access in ubuntu; thanks again | 02:50 |
| grndslm | unperson, external drive = bad idea, for usb is slow | 02:50 |
| M25 | sslaccessrocks: you said you were compiling from source... but you also said it's a perl script that didn't need compiling... I missed something | 02:50 |
| sslaccessrocks | M25: found out after i said that it was perl script (when the ./configure didn't register :) ) | 02:50 |
| almoxarife | M25: exactly | 02:50 |
| grndslm | sure thing :) | 02:50 |
| unperson | grndslm, Yes, I agree with you as a general matter. | 02:50 |
| phillip | ok cool | 02:51 |
| unperson | grndslm, I'm debating what to do with my eeepc 4G. It has 2 GB of RAM and only 4 GB of internal SSD storage. I was thinking of using an SD card for swap. | 02:51 |
| wick94 | hey | 02:52 |
| unperson | grndslm, I don't actually know about how the throughput to each of those compares on the eee (obviously depends in part on the SD card). | 02:52 |
| danbhfive | unperson: do you need swap? | 02:52 |
| lonnie | swap what? | 02:52 |
| unperson | grndslm, I suspect you're right that it would be a bad idea in any case. | 02:52 |
| j00bar | i upgraded from intrepid to karmic today, and my software raid setup just stops working on bootup. i get the "gave up waiting for root device" error. none of the workaround on #290153 seem to help. anything new on this front? | 02:52 |
| wick94 | http://ospalace.blogspot.com | 02:52 |
| wick94 | go open source or go home, lol | 02:52 |
| grndslm | unperson, go with out it! just reboot when necessary... like right-click the panel and add the system monitor... right click that and enable the "memory, swap, network, disk, etc." graphs | 02:53 |
| unperson | danbhfive, I assume I probably could (and should) do without it. The real issue is that I'd love to be able to hibernate. | 02:53 |
| wick94 | what's the new feature coming in 10.04 | 02:53 |
| wick94 | features* | 02:53 |
| grndslm | unperson, is hibernating really necessary when you've got an ssd? | 02:53 |
| rww | wick94: discussion and support for 10.04 belongs in #ubuntu+1 | 02:54 |
| wick94 | ok | 02:54 |
| wick94 | thnx rww | 02:54 |
| titan_ark | Dr_Willis, doesnt work. i cannot unmount home so :( | 02:54 |
| danbhfive | unperson: ah, I see. Then yeah, why not use an sd card as swap. It may destroy the card though | 02:54 |
| unperson | grndslm, I think it would be faster than the boot process (which may limited by the CPU rather than the storage speed). | 02:54 |
| _CommandeR_ | how do i change tty font? | 02:55 |
| kenthree_ | is there a server version of the mini iso? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD I can't find it | 02:55 |
| unperson | danbhfive, Right. My thinking was that if I destroy an SD card it's no big deal. | 02:55 |
| grndslm | yea, atom processors are pretty slow aren't they? i'd still figure it'd boot in less than 40 sec, tho | 02:55 |
| unperson | danbhfive, If I destroyed the internal memory it'd be a lot worse. | 02:55 |
| calvenatus | Hello, I need to download the ubuntu repos for use in a remote area without internet access with karmic koala, is this: http://archive.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/pool/ what i should be aiming for ? is there a better option ? | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | titan_ark: ive frogotton what you are even trying to do | 02:55 |
| unperson | danbhfive, It may be possible to do hibernate without using swap for virtual memory. Or else I could at least set swappiness to zero. | 02:56 |
| parastatic | Hey everyone I have a quick question if anyone has the time at the moment. | 02:56 |
| Semitones | go for it | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: i find my atom based netbook to be rather speedy.. but it is one of my newest machines :) | 02:57 |

| bipolar | Can someone help me with this preseed file? http://pastebin.com/d72de06ad The local[0,1] repos are not getting added to apt, and when it tries to install ssc-packages it fails since it doesn't have the repos. | 02:57 |
| parastatic | Okay I just got back into using something other then Windows. :P And only issue I have is my gfx. In my Admin selection I dont see a restricted driver manager. How do I go about finding that package? | 02:57 |
| JayStorm | hi | 02:57 |
| Dr_Willis | grndslm: proberly a 30 sec or less boot time here. I rarely notice. i turn it on.. get out the mouse/mousepad.. and its booted | 02:57 |
| unperson | danbhfive, The problem is that if I setup the SD card as swap and then it's absent I don't know what will happen. | 02:57 |
| danbhfive | unperson: hibernation will fail, that's it, right? | 02:58 |
| unperson | danbhfive, I have no idea if it will boot mostly normally with some error message or if the boot process will freeze or what. | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | unperson: you can have several swap entries in the fstab. they all will be used. You could set up a second swap partition if ou wanted | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | unperson: id bet it would give a warning/message then go on... | 02:58 |
| danbhfive | unperson: I think nothing will happen in that regard. The boot always checks for a hibernation entry... | 02:59 |
| unperson | Dr_Willis, It's a good idea in principle, but in this case I don't think have any other space to use. | 02:59 |
| no-name_ | hey i have installed 9.10 on a dell latitude lappy and cant get the display to go full screen. can someone help? thanks | 02:59 |
| grndslm | Dr_Willis, yup... takes my desktop about 25 sec to boot. would prolly be less if i had linuxBIOS to just bypass hardware checks 8-) | 02:59 |
| bolivartech | does anyone know if there is an ubuntu 9.1 server cd with a lamp setup? | 02:59 |
| unperson | danbhfive, You mean if I tried to resume from hibernate without the SD card. But generally I don't know what happens if you try to boot and the swap partition from fstab can't be mounted. | 03:00 |
| Greig^ | Hey guys, a little question for anyone, I've recently installed 9.10, but I notice that web pages take long to load up, any tips? | 03:00 |
| jrib | bolivartech: during install, you can choose to setup lamp | 03:00 |
| almoxarife | Greig^: your internet is slow? | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | 30 sec boot times vs 30+day uptimes on the server :) | 03:00 |
| danbhfive | unperson: nothing, I run without swap all the time | 03:01 |
| j00bar | i upgraded from intrepid to karmic today, and my software raid setup just stops working on bootup. i get the "gave up waiting for root device" error. none of the workaround on #290153 seem to help. anything new on this front? | 03:01 |
| bolivartech | jrib: i don't see that option, just install ubuntu or install cloud | 03:01 |
| jrib | !lamp | bolivartech | 03:01 |
| ubottu | bolivartech: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 03:01 |
| Maxdl1 | any one here that can help a noooooob | 03:01 |
| unperson | grndslm, I don't know how the boot speed for UNR would compare to the speed of resuming from hibernation. I guess ideally I'd like to install such that I can try out both options, so I'm trying to figure out what would be the best way to enable hibernation. | 03:01 |
| Greig^ | almoxarife: i wish it was, so i knew where to begin, internet's fine, just taking a while to load dam pages :( | 03:01 |
| jrib | bolivartech: not a big deal. It should be there though I haven't checked in karmic, but it's easy enough to run tasksel after you boot up... | 03:02 |
| Maxdl1 | cannot get unbuntu to connect to wireless | 03:02 |
| bolivartech | jrib: i will try !lamp | 03:02 |
| no-name_ | hey i have installed 9.10 on a dell latitude lappy and cant get the display to go full screen. can someone help? thanks | 03:02 |
| almoxarife | Greig^: you are comparing your web load up to another os on same machine? | 03:02 |
| unperson | danbhfive, I know you can run without swap just fine, which is what I assume you're doing. I don't know what happens when the OS is set to use swap but can't find the partition. | 03:02 |
| Ahmuck | does anyone know how ibus is used in 9.10? | 03:03 |
| unperson | danbhfive, I've always had swap on the same physical disk as /, so it never came up. | 03:03 |
| bolivartech | just wanted to make sure it was setup properly as it's been a while | 03:03 |
| tenji | Hello out there... I am new to Ubuntu, Just installed it on my laptop. HP dv5000 series, and i can't seem to get my video card drivers.. Can anyone help me? | 03:03 |

| rolsworth | is it possible to backup a ubuntu installation and restore it to another hard drive? | 03:03 |
| danbhfive | unperson: same thing when you don't have a partition at all. It just attempts to use the memory it needs. With 2g of ram, you won't notice anything | 03:03 |
| blakkheim | rolsworth: yes | 03:03 |
| danbhfive | unperson: unless of course you run allot of stuff... | 03:03 |
| rolsworth | how can i get that done | 03:04 |

| unperson | grndslm, Perhaps. The thing is that the eee has a) a slow CPU, b) a very small screen, and c) not much internal storage space, so it seems that an OS that takes those limitations into account is desirable. | 03:07 |

| almoxarife | Greig^: chrome is faster than firefox too :) | 03:08 |
| hexmare | is there any particular reason why X always resorts to 800x600 , instead of the mod 5040x1050 that I have configured it for? | 03:09 |
| bolivartech | ok I see the they've changed it, made it a package you choose during installation. Thanks for the link! | 03:09 |
| unperson | danbhfive, Cool. I appreciate your perspective on it. I may just give it a go. The only thing I have to determine is whether it's possible to make the swap partition available only for hibernation and not virtual memory. | 03:09 |
| Damianos | I have a sever boot issue....I tried to use the alt cd to reinstall grub and got a fatal error | 03:09 |

| ubottu | unperson this page has the commands for swappiness: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 03:10 |

| grndslm | unperson, right... i'd buy a $100-130 SSD (30-60gb OCZ with rebates) and drop that in there.... reinstall real ubuntu... and if you have issues with the lesser pixels (screen res), you can always *hold* ALT + CLICK anywhere on the window and DRAG with mouse whenever you'd like! | 03:12 |
| almoxarife | Maxdl1: the setup for wifi, does the router do the dhcp? | 03:12 |
| grndslm | unperson, the screen res is the reason a netbook + windows are no fun.... but on linux, you can drag windows around by holding alt, and clicking anywhere in the window to drag... very nice! :) | 03:12 |

| knoppies | Explore2, it sounds like your "sources" are not in order. | 03:24 |
| Themarker0 | @dro, moinmoinmoin and media wifi are good also | 03:25 |
| knoppies | Explore2, have a look in System -> administration -> Software Sources | 03:25 |
| Themarker0 | Hello, hi everyone, anyone here know off the top of their heads how to configure the DHCP after the fact of installing ubuntu server 8.04 ? | 03:25 |
| Trizicus | When I have a java application going I can only hear sound from that application. When I exit that application I can hear sounds from other applications. How do I fix this? | 03:25 |
| jrib | Themarker0: I don't think anything special has to be done... | 03:25 |
| Explore2 | knoppies: i went to s/w management as i am on 9.10 | 03:26 |
| taran | \just use windows server 2008 | 03:26 |
| Explore2 | what do i need to check now? | 03:26 |
| EEMPHASISS | jrib: want to move away from sda which is starting to have retries on its reads. sdb is new drive. Eventually want to move other partitions there, too, then shelve the old drive. sda layout is crap, so I don't simply want to clone te whole drive. | 03:26 |
| knoppies | Explore2, let me go look on my 9.10 install. | 03:26 |
| dragon_ | i respectfully request some assistance with an /etc/fstab with a cifs file share... I am not sure why I can not get FULL access to the share. I can read/write all day long.. but thunderbird is having difficult writing... and I see permissions just says access for group and other... I am confused. //xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/thunder /media/network/gx270/thunder cifs rw,auto,users,noperm,username=user,password=pass 0 0 | 03:26 |
| === jon is now known as Guest67497 | ||
| jrib | EEMPHASISS: I figured as much. Don't ask how to clone, if you don't want to clone :). Anyway, just copy the files over and change the mount point in your fstab then | 03:27 |
| knoppies | EEMPHASISS, something you might want to consider. When you do a new install using the command line, you can choose to copy contents from another /home file (never used it, not sure how it works). This would obviously be a new install though. | 03:27 |
| jrib | !home | EEMPHASISS | 03:27 |
| ubottu | EEMPHASISS: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 03:27 |
| jrib | EEMPHASISS: that last link is probably relevant for you | 03:28 |
| semitones_tea | hey could somebody help me understand the theory behind the real time kernel and tweaks in ubuntu-studio? I'm trying to decide if it would be good for my system | 03:28 |

| knoppies | Explore2, on my installation its still under System -> administration -> "Software sources" | 03:30 |
| EEMPHASISS | jrib: Thanks: so is something like "cp -a /home/* /media/homenew/" OK? (-a = "-dpR" = "--no-dereference --preserve=links,--preserve=mode,ownership,timestamps, Recursive") or should I use something else? What about hidden files? | 03:31 |

| outleradam | or even python or perl over bash? | 03:31 |
| Themarker0 | I'll be honest i have no idea dro. I haven't used it in a long tim | 03:32 |
| knoppies | Explore2, make sure all your (applicable) sources are ticked "Main, universe, restricted, multiverse". Then make sure that the selection box has "Main server" or the server for your country selected. | 03:32 |
| EEMPHASISS | knoppies, jrib: thanks: just saw your posts: I will check out. | 03:32 |
| Weevil | Hey, i'm new to ubunto, can someone help me? | 03:32 |
| Weevil | ubuntu* | 03:32 |
| Izinucs | outleradam: they are both entirely different things.. perl & python are programming languages and bash is more like "dos" on steriods. | 03:32 |
| Themarker0 | Also sorry i know you have to edit a file. (Ubuntu server) for the DHCP | 03:32 |
| knoppies | Weevil, gee, what do you need help with | 03:32 |
| semitones_tea | hey Weevil welcome to Ubuntu | 03:32 |
| outleradam | Izinucs: bash is so powerful though, is there anything it cannot do? | 03:32 |
| knoppies | Izinucs, I think bash is a lot more than "dos" on steroids. | 03:33 |
| Izinucs | outleradam: no idea.. | 03:33 |

| Explore2 | knoppies: where do i see them in 9.10, cant find here.. | 03:33 |
| Weevil | i have this network problem. When i run ubuntu from cd, it finds my network adapter and installs the driver (broadcom). But when i install it and run it from the HD it won't install the drivers... | 03:33 |
| knoppies | Explore2, on the menu bar at the top, there should be Applications, Places, System. right? In system is Administration, and in that you should see "Software Sources" right above "Synaptic Package Manager" | 03:34 |
| semitones_tea | Weevil, what happens when you try to install them? | 03:34 |
| outleradam | bash .sh is a scripting language as well, it's a scripting host right? I don't understand what the advantage of using perl or python is over using bash. It seems that with output redirection and all, bash is the logical choice of any program which does not require alot of graphics. | 03:34 |
| Weevil | I got to the "hardware devices" (or something) - under Administration, but it doesnt show me anything | 03:35 |

| knoppies | howardTduck, never heard of such a problem, but have you tried increasing the resolution (Im just sucking my thumb here). | 03:36 |
| Weevil | when i boot from cd it shows me the drivers to install, but from hd it shows nothing | 03:36 |
| dragon_ | I am trying to install a thunderbird profile that is REMOTE... on a windows share directory... so I can connect to the same Data from my windows laptop and my Ubuntu machine... is this concept decent? when I try to setup my thunderbird profilemanager. it says it doesn't have write access so i can not create my "network" profile. | 03:36 |
| howardTduck | it is a dell lappy not sure the video in it | 03:37 |
| knoppies | Weevil, I think you need to enable 'restricted' software sources. | 03:37 |
| iggimin | can I get Kubuntu help in here? | 03:37 |
| Weevil | how do i do that? | 03:37 |
| iggimin | 9.10 64-bit | 03:37 |
| panfist[laptop] | i installed ubuntu onto sde, an ide hard drive amongst 4 sata drives in an existing array. ubuntu decided to install grub onto sda and screw up the raid array | 03:37 |
| Explore2 | knoppies: i could install the req package with ap-get thank you.. | 03:37 |
| Izinucs | howardTduck: open a terminal window and type "lspci" without the quotes | 03:37 |
| outleradam | how often do the programs like sed, awk, and cat get changed? I'm writing a bash script and I'm hoping it survives the test of time | 03:37 |
| knoppies | Weevil, System -> Administration -> Software sources. | 03:37 |
| panfist[laptop] | also even after reinstalling grub to sde and setting it as a boot drive, i still get an error when booting from that drive | 03:37 |
| knoppies | Explore2, glad you fixed it. | 03:37 |
| dragon_ | on my windows box is a bit sluggish going from one email to the next... so thinking it might because of it trying to do network share.. I was thinking... maybe be best to get some sort of sync program... plan on using my ubuntu the most (and keeping it online always, to always collect the mail). but occationally be nice to read it from the laptop too... any suggestions? | 03:38 |
| Izinucs | howardTduck: in there will be the answer of what kind of card | 03:38 |
| iggimin | How do I get a fresh install to make this audio card work | 03:38 |

| iggimin | neither headphones or speakers work (it's a Compaq presario) | 03:38 |

| knoppies | Shirakawasuna, yea, it was weird. It failed to boot until I put it first. The other thing I did, was mount the drive on another PC to make sure the data was still in tact, and then I "un mounted" it. That might have also been the problem. | 03:48 |
| Shirakawasuna | zeleftikam: at least, tell me if it lists eth0 (or something similar) | 03:48 |

| knoppies | zeleftikam, do "ifconfig -a" | 03:49 |
| Shirakawasuna | zeleftikam: see what 'ifconfig eth0 up' does | 03:49 |
| Izinucs | panfist[laptop]: ah.. so is jaunty the only os on the system? and what seperate partitions have you created? | 03:49 |
| Shirakawasuna | zeleftikam: if you type ifconfig afterwards, does eth0 appear? | 03:49 |
| Shirakawasuna | zeleftikam: oh, sorry, you might need to do sudo. 'sudo ifconfig eth0 up' | 03:49 |

| zeleftikam | Shirakawasuna, yes. | 03:52 |
| zeleftikam | eth1 appears | 03:52 |
| knoppies | Elive_user58_en, you have to "reload" using the Synaptic Package Manager (if you havnt already) | 03:52 |
| Shirakawasuna | zeleftikam: type 'iwconfig'. What does it say for eth1? | 03:52 |
| Elive_user58_en | i did that alredy | 03:53 |

| knoppies | Elive_user58_en, then maybe you have to create a xorg.conf file. Give me a sec I might know how to do that. | 03:55 |
| zeleftikam | Shirakawasuna, no magic | 03:55 |
| resno | hello all, i am looking for a bittorrent client that can run on a headless server that supports rss. | 03:55 |
| blakkheim | zeleftikam: sudo dhclient eth1 | 03:55 |
| Elive_user58_en | ok | 03:55 |
| Shirakawasuna | oh, lol | 03:55 |
| Shirakawasuna | simple | 03:55 |
| Shirakawasuna | what blakkheim said, zeleftikam | 03:56 |
| knoppies | Elive_user58_en, (im just guessing from here on out, but it might be worth a shot). Someone told me to run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" to create a xorg.conf file. | 03:56 |
| zeleftikam | blakkheim, MAGIC | 03:56 |
| knoppies | Elive_user58_en, assuming your card is an nvidia one. | 03:56 |
| knoppies | Elive_user58_en, that also might need the nvidia drivers. | 03:56 |
| lakotajames | hi guys. My nautilus doesn't work. "sudo apt-get --reinstall install nautilus" gives me "Reinstallation of nautilus is not possible, it cannot be downloaded." | 03:56 |
| zeleftikam | THANKS EVERYONE!!! | 03:56 |
| Elive_user58_en | ok, i will try it | 03:56 |
| zeleftikam | will my networking work as expected from now on? | 03:56 |
| zeleftikam | if i shut down, etc | 03:57 |
| zeleftikam | it should be okay tomorrow? | 03:57 |
| Elive_user58_en | knoppies, it said commmand not found | 03:57 |
| knoppies | Elive_user58_en, hmm, ok. then Im not sure. | 03:58 |
| Shirakawasuna | zeleftikam: maybe | 03:58 |
| Shirakawasuna | zeleftikam: cross your fingers ;) | 03:58 |
| zeleftikam | haha. maybe is not a good answer! i'll try it | 03:58 |
| knoppies | zeleftikam, you might want to restart now just to test it. | 03:58 |
| zeleftikam | aye. | 03:58 |
| Elive_user58_en | ok, no biggie | 03:58 |
| semitones_tea | Doesn't network manager have a cli version nowadays? | 03:59 |
| blakkheim | semitones_tea: wicd does | 03:59 |
| semitones_tea | I thought nm did too | 03:59 |
| zeleftikam | knoppies, no magic, it breaks when i reboot | 04:00 |

| zeleftikam | Izinucs, no, not really, since the computer has no networking ability whatsoever | 04:03 |
| abstrakt | e.g. /usr/lib/foo/something.txt /var/www/foo/index.php | 04:03 |

| lakotajames | guys, please help me, what do I do when I get the "Reinstallation of nautilus is not possible, it cannot be downloaded." message? | 04:04 |
| semitones_tea | zeleftikam, didn't you get it to work? | 04:04 |
| zeleftikam | Izinucs, it references lo and eth0, iface eth0 inet dhcp and auto eth0 | 04:04 |
| zeleftikam | i think maybe i should change these to eth1 since that's what worked earlier ;-) | 04:04 |
| lakotajames | am I even on irc correctly? | 04:04 |
| semitones_tea | lakotajames, could you try reinstalling it from a cd? | 04:04 |
| zeleftikam | lakotajames, i can hear you | 04:05 |
| MilitantPotato | lakotajames: make sure your software sources are set right | 04:05 |
| lakotajames | semitones_tea: how do I go about doing that? | 04:05 |
| Izinucs | zeleftikam: worth a try.. open the file with sudo nano /etc/networking/interfaces | 04:05 |
| lakotajames | MilitantPotato: which source is nautilus in? | 04:05 |
| zeleftikam | Izinucs, i used pico, that's ok right? | 04:05 |
| semitones_tea | lakotajames, you would add the cd to your software sources -- but seeing as you are connected to the internet already, you might want to try another way | 04:05 |
| PingFloyd | lakotajames: did you try reinstalling via apt-get? | 04:05 |
| Izinucs | zeleftikam: yep | 04:06 |
| zeleftikam | Izinucs, ok, i changed them to eth1, restarting now | 04:06 |

| zeleftikam | Izinucs, we have magic! Working great. Thanks very much. This problem was caused because I installed Ubuntu Server on one PC, and got it running great, then i built a new PC with an IDENTICAL motherboard and put the disk in it and it booted but for some reason it's eth1 on this mobo and eth0 on the old one. strange. | 04:07 |
| Izinucs | zeleftikam: great.. :) | 04:08 |
| PingFloyd | lakotajames: maybe you're just having troubles with the repo you have in the source.list | 04:08 |
| nomnex | different names but same app? | 04:08 |
| semitones_tea | Izinucs, Hmm, for me it was the opposite. I had lubuntu which uses wicd, and it was flaky for me | 04:08 |
| semitones_tea | Izinucs, uninstalling wicd and installing nm fixed it | 04:08 |
| Izinucs | semitones_tea: I couldn't set a static ip with network manager I had to use wicd | 04:09 |
| zeleftikam | Thanks again everyone, the efficiency with which I got help has convinced me that Ubuntu is the correct platform for my business applications. I couldn't have had help from Apple or Microsoft this quickly for their products. Ubuntu forever! | 04:09 |

| lakotajames | ronj: well, right now isn't that bad, but when this room is really active people don't want stuff that's not relevant to ubuntu support taking up space. | 04:23 |
| ronj | Izinucs, OK about your point. I'm not used to chans with so many people. Noted. | 04:23 |
| un214 | spawning irc as root gets you kicked off the server immediately !?! | 04:24 |
| jazz | lakotajames, good to know im new to irc myself - there isnt a room for themers would there? | 04:24 |
| ronj | I'm more active in smaller chans and you're right that 1200 people saying hello means more hell than hello | 04:24 |
| ronj | now, my question :P | 04:24 |
| lakotajames | jazz: I'm sure there is, but I don't know what it is. :p you might try and find the gnome channel, and ask them. | 04:25 |

| ronj | I'd like to bind certain home folders to specific folder icons (like Documents, Downloads, Music... by default). xdg-user-dirs is here for this and indeed I'm able to add entries to .config/user-dirs.dirs, but I'm unable to find how to specify icons. The freedesktop specification doesn't mention it and my attempts at digging how it was made by my icon theme were unsuccessful. any help? | 04:27 |
| un214 | Anybody know how to fix this: depends python-qt4 (<4.7.0-2ubuntu2+~) but 4.7.0-u2buntu3 is to be installed | 04:28 |
| Nitsuga | ronj, The places icons are in <icon folder>/places/<size>/ | 04:28 |
| Nitsuga | ronj, for example the humanity icons in 64x64px are in /usr/share/icons/Humanity/places/64 | 04:29 |
| ronj | Nitsuga, yes I found this, but suppose I declare a new XDG_APPLICATIONS_DIR="$HOME/Apps" in my .config/user-dirs.dirs . Where should I place this "applications" icon? | 04:30 |
| lakotajames | ronj: from google: " It is possible to chose a custom icon for a given folder in Nautilus by right-clicking and opening the folder's "properties" dialog." | 04:30 |
| lakotajames | ronj: don't know if that'll help or not. | 04:30 |
| un214 | Look apt-get dist-upgrade removed kde and left me with no usable login session | 04:30 |
| Nitsuga | mmm... | 04:31 |
| ronj | Nitsuga, I tried following the naming structure, meaning creating a /usr/share/icons/gnome-wise/scalable/places/folder-applications.svg but it seems it's not enough | 04:31 |
| ronj | lakotajames, that'd work for a single user, but I'm looking for a solution easily deployable without a lot of clicks | 04:32 |
| Nitsuga | it seems we'll have to RTFS | 04:32 |
| Nitsuga | Read the Fucking Source [code] | 04:32 |
| un214 | what's the apt-get syntax to request a force-install of a specific version of a specific package? | 04:32 |
| lakotajames | ronj: what if you did it once, then copied the configuration for nautilus across all users? | 04:32 |
| semitones_tea | !ohmy | Nitsuga | 04:33 |
| ubottu | Nitsuga: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. | 04:33 |
| Nitsuga | ups | 04:33 |
| semitones_tea | just the foul language part :) | 04:33 |
| lakotajames | nitsuga: I think they don't even want you to use rtfm, or rtfs | 04:33 |
| pd_fire | we'll have to stick with rts then? | 04:34 |
| pd_fire | or rtm | 04:34 |
| ronj | lakotajames, hmmm maybe. any idea where would this configuration be stored? deep inside a gconf structure? | 04:34 |

| lakotajames | Nitsuga: fine, is what I usually say it means. but they usually don't like it anyway. | 04:34 |

| Nitsuga | ubyserver, try typing the server's IP adress ina browser | 04:53 |
| ronj | Nitsuga, yup, or do it manually like lakotajames suggested | 04:53 |

| ubyserver | hmmm command not found. | 04:55 |
| ubyserver | Maybe I'm typing it wrong. | 04:55 |
| ubyserver | Nope. | 04:56 |
| Nitsuga | or server edition doesn't have sudo | 04:56 |
| ubyserver | I typed exactly that and No go. | 04:56 |
| Nitsuga | I forgot that :P | 04:56 |
| ubyserver | Ahh | 04:56 |
| Nitsuga | login as root, typing su and root's password | 04:56 |
| ronj | Nitsuga, yes it is. Right click on a folder > Properties > Click the icon | 04:56 |
| ubyserver | In. | 04:56 |
| Izinucs | Nitsuga: server does have sudo | 04:57 |
| Nitsuga | ronj, can't believe that i didn't see that | 04:57 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, now run /etc/init.d/apache2 stat | 04:58 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, now run /etc/init.d/apache2 status | 04:58 |
| ubyserver | Ok | 04:58 |
| rolsworth | is there a way to auto mount a hard drive? i always have to enter the password when i need to mount it | 04:58 |
| Nitsuga | rolsworth, you can do so with the /etc/fstab file | 04:58 |
| ubyserver | run not found.But I did ls /etc/init.d | 04:59 |
| ubyserver | And I don't see apache2 in there. | 04:59 |
| Nitsuga | open it as root ( gksudo gedit /etc/fstab ) | 04:59 |
| jazz | how does one pm again in x chat? | 04:59 |
| Speedy2 | rolsworth: Yes, add it to your fstab file. | 04:59 |
| ubyserver | So maybe apache isn't pre-installed. | 04:59 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, so (surprisingly) it hasn't apache installed | 04:59 |
| Speedy2 | jazz: /msg <user> <message> | 04:59 |
| ubyserver | Alright. | 04:59 |
| jazz | Speedy2, thank you | 04:59 |
| ubyserver | Nitsuga: What would you recommend if I would like to setup LAMP + cPanel | 04:59 |
| ubyserver | I reckon I install LAMP first? | 05:00 |
| Nitsuga | you _must_ install LAMP first | 05:00 |
| rolsworth | how exactly do i add it? | 05:00 |
| ubyserver | Alright. | 05:00 |
| Speedy2 | jazz: No problem. Look into "IRC commands", xchat just uses standard IRC commands | 05:00 |
| Speedy2 | rolsworth: Dude, you can do a google search on "fstab" and try to understand. | 05:00 |
| rats | hello | 05:00 |
| Nitsuga | rolsworth, in the las line write the partition device, an space, the mount point, an space and the partition format | 05:01 |
| rolsworth | everything seems to be very complicated. thanks for the help | 05:01 |
| Nitsuga | example_ | 05:01 |
| jazz | Speedy2, x-) thanks a mill. | 05:01 |
| Speedy2 | rolsworth: You'll need to know the device name (/dev/sda, /dev/sdb), etc. and the partition (1, 2, 3, etc) | 05:01 |
| Nitsuga | rolsworth, example: /dev/sda2 /media/Windows7 ntfs-3g | 05:01 |
| rats | need some help with this 'E:Type 'ain' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awn-testing-ppa-karmic.list, E:The list of sources could not be read.' | 05:01 |
| Speedy2 | rolsworth: type sudo fdisk -l to get an idea of how your system | 05:01 |
| asdffdsasdffds23 | Hi, how do I give myself permission to mount external hard-drives? | 05:01 |
| Speedy2 | rolsworth: And look at /etc/fstab to see the organization. You will have to be careful about owner/user mask if you're mounting a "UNIX" volume (xfs, ext2/3/4, JFS, etc) | 05:02 |
| Izinucs | !fstab | rolsworth | 05:02 |
| ubottu | rolsworth: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 05:02 |
| allo_946 | Hi, how do I give myself permission to mount external hard-drives? | 05:03 |
| rats | can some one help me with this erroe 'E:Type 'ain' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awn-testing-ppa-karmic.list, E:The list of sources could not be read.' | 05:03 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, instal the packages apache2 php5 mysql-server | 05:03 |
| ubyserver | Alright | 05:03 |
| ubyserver | For some reason I'm trying ' apt-get install apache2' And Error = cound't find package | 05:04 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, you may also want phpmyadmin | 05:04 |
| Izinucs | ubyserver: try apt-cache search apache2 | 05:04 |
| phong_ | hello | 05:04 |
| ubyserver | Nothing happens :( | 05:04 |
| Benbong | ubyserver, have you done apt-get update before ? | 05:04 |
| ubyserver | Just did it | 05:05 |
| ubyserver | done. | 05:05 |
| Benbong | you should check your repository then | 05:05 |
| here4thegear | I'm pretty sure it's just apt-get install apache | 05:05 |
| here4thegear | but, I could be mistaken, it's been a while | 05:05 |
| ubyserver | now it worked | 05:05 |
| Shazam | my webcam is properly listed under lsusb, I've installed the qc-usb driver (its a Logitech Quickcam) What's the next step I should be looking for in terms of basic functionality | 05:05 |
| ubyserver | apt-get install apache2 worked | 05:05 |
| here4thegear | cool | 05:05 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, great | 05:06 |
| Izinucs | ubyserver: sudo tasksel will probably work now too | 05:06 |
| Nitsuga | I personally have had some trouble with tasksel | 05:06 |
| ubyserver | Oh after the update It shows LAMP server in the list | 05:06 |
| ubyserver | Nitsuga: copy that. | 05:06 |
| Izinucs | ubyserver: you may want to "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to fully update your system | 05:06 |
| ubyserver | Alright. | 05:07 |
| ubyserver | Should I not do the tasksel , LAMP server and DNS server now? | 05:07 |
| ubyserver | Or should I do the apt-get upgrade first. | 05:07 |
| Izinucs | no.. do the update first | 05:07 |
| ubyserver | alright. | 05:07 |
| ubyserver | How do I uninstall the apt-get apache2 | 05:07 |
| ubyserver | That I just did or no worries? | 05:07 |
| Izinucs | no worries | 05:07 |
| ubyserver | alright, going to run those commands on the server. | 05:07 |
| thecliff | "General Error - Unable to mount file system" when first loading Ubuntu 9.10 using GRUB 2 -- any ideas? | 05:08 |
| Nitsuga | about apt-get upgrades: Is teher any repo administrator/ in this channel? I have some trouble with the main Ubuntu repo, is gives me a 403 Forbideden error while trying to update libmysqlclient16 ( http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/m/mysql-cluster-7.0/libmysqlclient16_7.0.9-1_amd64.deb ) | 05:08 |
| Shazam | huh. my webcam isn't listed under video devices. | 05:08 |
| Nitsuga | *here | 05:09 |
| ubyserver | apt-get upgrade complete. Now on to apt-get distro.. | 05:09 |
| ubyserver | Done. | 05:10 |
| Izinucs | sudo tasksel .. lamp | 05:10 |
| ubyserver | Now go on and run the tasksel and select DNS + LAMP server? | 05:10 |
| thecliff | "General Error - Unable to mount file system" when first loading Ubuntu 9.10 using GRUB 2 -- any ideas? | 05:10 |
| Izinucs | ubyserver: do you need a dns server? probably not | 05:11 |
| ubyserver | Yep. | 05:11 |
| ubyserver | It's an online server that I purchased | 05:11 |
| ubyserver | Will have multiple domains | 05:11 |
| Izinucs | k | 05:11 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, that doesn't mean that you need DNS | 05:11 |
| ubyserver | Oh alright. | 05:11 |
| ubyserver | Id din't know. | 05:11 |
| allo_946 | Hi, how do I give myself permission to mount external hard-drives? Just a good link will do, I'm not looking for techy support! (Please:)) | 05:11 |
| ubyserver | So I can leave it out? | 05:11 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, yes | 05:12 |
| here4thegear | I need to read attributes (like title) from ttf files. I'm familiar with php, bash, and some py.. can either of those do it for me? | 05:12 |
| ubyserver | Alright awesome. | 05:12 |
| ubyserver | Should I leave OpenSSH server checked? | 05:12 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, of course | 05:12 |
| Izinucs | sure | 05:12 |
| ubyserver | Alright. | 05:12 |
| Nitsuga | otherwise you will uninstall it and loose control of the server | 05:12 |
| ubyserver | rofl | 05:12 |
| ubyserver | Would not want that. | 05:12 |
| Izinucs | ubyserver: install screen too. but you can do that later | 05:13 |
| rats | how to install avant-window-navigator | 05:13 |
| ubyserver | Why not now :) | 05:13 |
| Izinucs | if you can go for it | 05:13 |
| ubyserver | Nah I would rather stick to command line though. | 05:13 |
| ubyserver | I want to overhaul the learning process :) | 05:13 |
| Izinucs | screen *is* command line.. | 05:13 |
| ubyserver | I thought you meant gui | 05:13 |
| lostinspace_46 | How do I give one piece of software permission to write to another piece of software? | 05:14 |
| Izinucs | no.. screen is a terminal multiplexer.. so you can start a process .. disconnect and come back later to see what happens | 05:14 |
| ubyserver | Ahh | 05:14 |
| Nitsuga | I would install byobu | 05:14 |
| Nitsuga | is in fact a screen profile | 05:14 |
| Nitsuga | but very useful | 05:14 |
| ubyserver | Alright. Installing packages. | 05:14 |
| unperson | What repository should I add in order to install skype on Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10? | 05:15 |
| ubyserver | Alright just set root passwd | 05:17 |

| ubyserver | wonderful | 05:17 |
| ubyserver | I now have the beautiful var/www | 05:17 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, you may want phpmyamdin to manage your database | 05:17 |
| resno | i lost the password to mysql and cant recover it. i have stoppped the instance, and have tried access it through mysql but its not working. | 05:18 |
| ubyserver | Should I installed Plesk or cPanel | 05:18 |
| ubyserver | Or stick to PHPmyadmin | 05:18 |
| here4thegear | lostinspace_46: I don't know the 'proper' way exactly but, I believe it would work if you simply added the two softwares to the same group | 05:18 |
| Nitsuga | rats, press alt-f2 and then type gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awn-testing-ppa-karmic.list | 05:18 |
| Nitsuga | remove the first line, save and voilà | 05:19 |
| here4thegear | ubyserver: isn't phpmyadmin part of cpanel? | 05:19 |
| ubyserver | Yes it indeed is. | 05:19 |
| ubyserver | I forgot. | 05:19 |
| rats | Nitsuga: k | 05:19 |
| ubyserver | It is also apart of Plesk. I did forget this :) | 05:19 |
| here4thegear | ubyserver: I like cpanel, but that's just me.. I've never used Plexk | 05:19 |
| ubyserver | Nitsuga: Awesome, the IP now shows It works! | 05:19 |
| ubyserver | They both get the job done. | 05:19 |
| ubyserver | I'm used to both. | 05:19 |
| lostinspace_46 | here4thegear, I agree, but I don't know how to add software to a group. | 05:20 |
| rats | Nitsuga: did that .. what do i do now | 05:20 |
| zepher | Anyone have some tips for getting a WPA wireless connection to work? | 05:20 |
| here4thegear | lostinspace_46: run the software and while it's running do ps auxx then you will know what user:group is is running as? | 05:20 |
| Nitsuga | rats, save the file and try again | 05:20 |
| ubyserver | Installing phpmyadmin by apt-get install phpmyadmin | 05:21 |
| rats | Nitsuga: there is only ain in the file | 05:21 |
| rats | do i still save it | 05:21 |
| ubyserver | now webserver to configure automatically has 'apache2, apache, apache-ssl, apache-perl, lighttpd | 05:21 |
| rats | Nitsuga: do i still save it | 05:21 |
| ubyserver | Should I select all of the above or just what I have installed apache2? | 05:21 |
| here4thegear | lostinspace_46: er, no... duh, it will show as your user:group.. never mind.. lol | 05:21 |
| Nitsuga | yes, if you want you can delete it | 05:21 |
| Nitsuga | rats, sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awn-testing-ppa-karmic.list | 05:22 |
| ubyserver | I'll just go with apache2 | 05:22 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, choose apache2 and apache-ssl | 05:22 |
| ubyserver | Alright so I'll do it again | 05:22 |
| rats | Nitsuga: nothign came | 05:22 |
| ubyserver | uh oh :( | 05:23 |

| ubuntu-noob | can anybody help me with this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/377094/ ... many thanks... | 05:23 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, it will ask you again with dpkg-econfigure phpmyadmin | 05:23 |
| ubyserver | alright | 05:23 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, it will ask you again with dpkg-reconfigure phpmyadmin | 05:23 |
| Nitsuga | rats, it already deleted it | 05:24 |
| lostinspace_46 | here4thegear I didn't realize software was grouped. Knowing that, I will see what I can do. Thanks! | 05:24 |
| Nitsuga | it's done | 05:24 |
| ubyserver | If I will be using perl as well should I include? | 05:24 |
| petrichor | hm | 05:24 |
| rats | Nitsuga: oh k .. thanks | 05:24 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, no, apache-perl is for apache1 | 05:24 |
| allo_946 | Hi, how do I give myself permission to mount external hard-drives? Just a good link will do, I'm not looking for techy support! (Please:)) | 05:24 |
| ubyserver | Understood. | 05:24 |
| Nitsuga | using perl and CGI to get access to phpmyadmin | 05:24 |
| ubyserver | uh oh now the errors come up. | 05:25 |
| rats | Nitsuga: how do i go abt to downlad awn then | 05:25 |
| Nitsuga | in apache2 you can use modules, wich are much faster and reliable | 05:25 |
| petrichor | mouse sensitivity not adjusting in preferences -- any ideas? -- googled all around, cant find anything | 05:25 |
| ubyserver | invoce-rc.d: unknown init script, /etc/init.d/apache-ssl not found | 05:25 |
| petrichor | ubuntu 9.10 w/ wubi | 05:25 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, so forget about it | 05:25 |
| Nitsuga | for now | 05:25 |
| ubyserver | But you recommend this because it is the best way to go. | 05:26 |
| ubyserver | So maybe just remove phpmyadmin | 05:26 |
| ubyserver | and redo? | 05:26 |
| Nitsuga | ubyserver, unless you have https access to your server and a certificate | 05:26 |
| ubyserver | Nope no cert. | 05:26 |
| bigtom21485 | this is gunna sound really lame but does anyone know how to get "virtuaGirl HD" to run on linux? | 05:26 |
| Nitsuga | so forget for the moment | 05:26 |
| lostinspace_46 | rats, See the chown and chmod manuals | 05:26 |
| ubyserver | Alright. | 05:26 |
| Nitsuga | it is compleining because https isn't configured | 05:26 |
| rats | lostinspace_46: where do i find that | 05:26 |
| ubyserver | so now phpmyadmin is installed. | 05:26 |
| ubyserver | next is cPanel? | 05:26 |
| ronj | bigtom21485, is that a windows app? | 05:27 |
| bigtom21485 | ronj: yeah it is | 05:27 |
| lostinspace_46 | rats, In theminal type man chown and man chmod | 05:27 |
| ronj | bigtom21485, have you tried wine? if wine doesn't work, try wine-1.2 | 05:27 |
| lostinspace_46 | *terminal | 05:27 |
| bigtom21485 | i drink wine in real life but but not sure where or what wine is on linux | 05:28 |
| Nitsuga | rats, to install awn jut look for it in the software centre | 05:28 |
| Nitsuga | or type sudo aptitude install avant-window-navigator | 05:28 |
| ubyserver | With some research, I've found that cPanel best supports CentOS and RH. | 05:28 |
| ubuntu-noob | can anybody help me with this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/377094/ ... many thanks... | 05:28 |
| iflema | petrichor is there a change if you put acceleration all up and sensitivity all down? | 05:29 |
| ubyserver | Have you managed cPanel on Ubuntu? | 05:29 |
| ubyserver | Or should I go with something like Webmin? | 05:29 |
| rats | Nitsuga: i did that but it shows an error .... The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources. | 05:29 |
| ronj | bigpresh, ok, wine is a program that lets you run Windows applications under Ubuntu | 05:29 |
| ronj | bigtom21485 sorry, ok, wine is a program that lets you run Windows applications under Ubuntu | 05:29 |
| Izinucs | ubyserver: webmin isn't recommended in ubuntu.. it doesn't follow their conventions | 05:29 |
| jiohdi | WINE lets you runs SOME windows apps... not all | 05:29 |
| Izinucs | !ebox | ubyserver | 05:29 |
| ubottu | ubyserver: ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 05:29 |
| ubyserver | Understood. | 05:29 |
| here4thegear | ubyserver: no, I've used it on centos only so far | 05:29 |
| bigtom21485 | ronj: thats badass how do i get it | 05:29 |
| Nitsuga | rats, first do a sudo aptitude update | 05:30 |
| ronj | jiohdi, yeah, let's try with him to see if it works on his case | 05:30 |
| jiohdi | if you find USB windows apps, they will work best under wine | 05:30 |
| ubyserver | alright, checking that out. | 05:30 |
| rats | Nitsuga: k ill do that .. | 05:30 |
| Nick_Meister | hi guys im having a small issue, my quadcore phenom 2 is only being recognized as one processor instead of 4 | 05:30 |
| ronj | bigtom21485, open System > Administration > Synaptic package manager | 05:30 |
| bigtom21485 | lol ill trade you...j/k | 05:30 |
| Izinucs | Nick_Meister: you running 64 bit? | 05:30 |
| Nick_Meister | Izinucs, yep | 05:31 |
| bigtom21485 | ronj: done | 05:31 |
| Izinucs | Nick_Meister: sorry.. I had to ask.. even though I don't have the answer . | 05:31 |
| nick125 | Nick_Meister: Can you pastebin the output of 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' (in a terminal, without quotes)? | 05:31 |
| Nick_Meister | it was running fine till i updated to new kernel through the auto updates | 05:31 |
| bigtom21485 | ronj: which version of wine do i want? | 05:31 |
| seanbrystone | Nick_Meister, now you got me curious how do you check processors? I got the same chip | 05:31 |
| ronj | bigtom21485, then licate the package called "wine", right click, click "Install", then "Apply" in the toolbar | 05:31 |
| nick125 | Nick_Meister: Hmm. That has me curious. What does uname -a say? | 05:31 |
| Nitsuga | Nick_Meister, what happens if you do a echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online | 05:31 |
| ronj | bigtom21485, let's try first with wine (which is wine 1.0.something) | 05:32 |
| ubyserver | Just read the help page for eBox. | 05:32 |
| rats | Nitsuga: its giving me an error when i try updating | 05:32 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, try dmesg | grep CPU | 05:32 |
| ronj | bigtom21485, once it is installed, try installing/launching your windows app. if it doesn't work, try installing wine1.2 which is more recent, less stable, but may work better for some apps | 05:33 |
| Nick_Meister | http://pastebin.org/92366 | 05:33 |
| Benbong | you should have the number of cpu recognized by the kernel | 05:33 |
| Nick_Meister | ok thats for the cat one | 05:33 |
| Nitsuga | rats, now or before editing/deleting that file? | 05:33 |
| rats | Nitsuga: after deleting | 05:33 |
| ronj | bigtom21485, also, have a look at the WINE Compatibility database: http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 05:33 |
| seanbrystone | how do you scroll up in screen? | 05:33 |
| ubyserver | Just looking at the ebox rdepends, I would not know which modules I require. | 05:33 |

| nick125 | It's only pulling up one CPU, though. Oddly. | 05:35 |
| Nick_Meister | but the system monitor is not displaying anything | 05:35 |
| ubyserver | Ebox Dashboard looks sweet. | 05:35 |
| ubyserver | So shall I just install all of ebox packages? | 05:35 |
| nick125 | Nick_Meister: What do you get from uname -a? | 05:36 |

| Benbong | linux 32 and 64 supports more than 4 cpus | 05:37 |
| nick125 | Nick_Meister: Do you know which kernel you were running before? | 05:37 |
| Nick_Meister | i think the default one before that | 05:38 |
| Nitsuga | seanbrystone, 32 bit generic Ubuntu kernel supports up to 64 CPUs | 05:38 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, it seems that your system has shut down 3 cpus, strange | 05:38 |
| Nick_Meister | i didnt do anything fancy | 05:38 |
| Nick_Meister | just let the updates roll | 05:38 |
| Nick_Meister | what should i do T.T | 05:38 |
| seanbrystone | Nitsuga, ok ty, one last question how do i scroll up in screen? | 05:38 |

| ronj | bigtom21485, last word: if it works and you want to be a good WINE citizens by improving the compatibility database, think about registering and adding a report that it works on your wine version (probably 1.1.38) | 05:38 |
| nick125 | Nick_Meister: Can you pastebin the full dmesg? (output of 'dmesg') | 05:39 |
| ALapo | hello friends anyone use vmware tools on ubuntu server? | 05:39 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, did you updated the kernel ? | 05:39 |
| bigtom21485 | cool, thanks for your help | 05:39 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, you need a smp kernel | 05:39 |
| ALapo | i am unable to get the vmxnet module to work | 05:39 |

| Nick_Meister | and is my cpu broken? | 05:42 |
| rats_ | Nitsuga: i am still nto able to get thru | 05:42 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, try to reboot to see if the problem still exists | 05:42 |
| Nitsuga | Nick_Meister, why don't you try booting with a different kernel | 05:42 |
| Benbong | and to the dmesg | grep CPU after reboot | 05:42 |
| Nitsuga | ou should have them in GRUB | 05:43 |

| Nick_Meister | is there any way to tell cpu temp incase it overheated? | 05:43 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, can you do a uname -a | 05:43 |
| Nick_Meister | i already did | 05:43 |
| Nick_Meister | i put it up | 05:43 |
| Nitsuga | rats_, are you using "sudo" | 05:44 |
| Nitsuga | "sudo aptitude update | 05:44 |
| rats_ | Nitsuga: sudo apt-get update | 05:44 |
| marks256 | Is there a way to automatically sync a file's ownership based on the directory it is being placed in? I want to be able to have an "administrator" ftp account, and when i copy a file into another user's directory, i want that file to take on their ownership, not the admin's ownership | 05:45 |
| Nitsuga | rats_, be shure that you don't have synaptic opened | 05:45 |
| Nitsuga | or aptitude, or the update manager | 05:45 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, there seems to ba a problem with your APIC | 05:45 |
| rats_ | Nitsuga: yeah its not open | 05:46 |
| ubyserver | Just reading some of ebox documentation and forum. I see people mentioning that I can't manage phpmyadmin or mysql, etc. | 05:46 |
| nick125 | Benbong: If/when he comes back, I think we should have him try a newer kernel. Prehaps the one from one of the other repos (-proposed, etc) | 05:46 |
| Nitsuga | rats_, ok i'm out of ideas. You can try a reboot to slve the problem | 05:47 |
| Nick_Meister | ok i rebooted | 05:47 |
| Benbong | nick125, I had some trouble with APIC with a athlon x2 | 05:47 |
| Nick_Meister | it seems the cores are back | 05:47 |
| rats_ | Nitsuga: k ill try that | 05:47 |
| Nick_Meister | could it be that its overheating? | 05:47 |
| Nitsuga | I'll go to bed | 05:47 |
| hamish_ | hi | 05:47 |
| Benbong | nick125, there was a setup in the bios that I had to adjust to have it working properly | 05:47 |
| Nitsuga | here it's too late to be waken up | 05:47 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, APIC is here to save power when you don't need it | 05:48 |
| Benbong | as I was telling nick125 I had issues with an AMD and APIC before | 05:48 |
| Nitsuga | Nick_Meister, I think that it was more under-voltage than over-heating | 05:48 |
| Benbong | Nick_Meister, and I had to change something in the BIOS | 05:48 |
| eshannon | I just added a new Hard drive and I am editing the fstab could any tell me if this looks right? | 05:48 |
| Nick_Meister | something like what? | 05:48 |

| Benbong | Nick_Meister, did you changes anything in your BIOS recently ? | 05:48 |
| Nick_Meister | no | 05:48 |
| kdasdasf | hi i have trouble with my php installation, the php-cgi just crashes in some file: http://pastebin.com/d5cfcc0a5 <-- this is what strace says | 05:49 |

| === jon is now known as Guest57979 | ||
| Nitsuga | here in Argentina the under-voltage is pretty common in hot days in summer, and I can't boot my computer or it slows down to about 700Mhz, and more weird things | 05:49 |
| Benbong | ALapo, yes I do use vmware tools | 05:50 |
| Nitsuga | eshannon, just remove the 1 at the end | 05:50 |
| thad | hiii | 05:50 |
| eshannon | Nitsuga thanks | 05:50 |
| Eremite | I have a question about compiz window decorations. I want to remove the window decorations from mplayer (not Movie Player). How do I remove window decorations for a specific window? Big thanks for any help. | 05:50 |
| thad | whats the program thats like a mac dock for ubuntu? | 05:51 |
| vatzec | Hey, I'm considering installing Ubuntu on my "netbook" now. Here's my question: is a decent office suite (GNOME's Abiword+Gnumerica OR OpenOffice.org) replaced with Google Docs in the most recent release available? | 05:51 |
| nick125 | thad: Docky, avant-window-navigator | 05:51 |
| thad | thanks | 05:51 |
| bastid_raZor | eshannon: instead of completely removing the one.. make it a 2 .. so that it is checked after the / partition. | 05:52 |
| Nitsuga | vatzec, it was going to be repaced | 05:52 |
| nick125 | thad: I personally like Docky better, but you could try both of them. | 05:52 |
| Nitsuga | but finally they decided no to do so | 05:52 |
| vatzec | Nitsuga: it's a horrible idea BTW :C | 05:52 |
| vatzec | phew! | 05:52 |
| vatzec | glad to hear that ;) | 05:52 |
| Nitsuga | vatzec, I don't think so | 05:52 |
| Nitsuga | OO.o is pretty bulky | 05:52 |
| vatzec | yes | 05:52 |
| vatzec | but AbiWord is not | 05:52 |
| Nitsuga | and anyway you can install it if you want | 05:52 |
| vatzec | and I don't like volunteering *all* of my my personal data to a company | 05:53 |
| nick125 | Yeah, OO.o is rather bloated. | 05:53 |
| vatzec | I know, but just please don't make Google Docs the default >_> | 05:53 |
| vatzec | I know, guys, I know. | 05:53 |
| thad | mmm ubuntu is a lot easier and funner than vista | 05:53 |
| === goldenfox is now known as Guest51671 | ||
| Eremite | vatzec, Ubuntu does not force you to the cloud. | 05:53 |
| vatzec | Whatever you say, Microsoft's Office is a very good suite. I know it's closed. But it's very good. | 05:53 |
| Nitsuga | I don't like seeing OO.o with a start time of more than 8 seconds on the same machine that starts Microsoft Office in 1.2 seconds | 05:53 |
| Eremite | vatzec, yes and OpenOffice is almost a perfect replacement. | 05:54 |
| nick125 | Even if GDocs was the default (doubt it), it's _not_ hard to use something else. | 05:54 |
| Nitsuga | PD: MS Office 2010 | 05:54 |
| Eremite | And free | 05:54 |
| vatzec | Eremite: But it's super-slow. | 05:54 |
| thad | where is avant window manager located at? | 05:54 |
| vatzec | Eremite: Don't get me wrong, I'm a long-time free software supporter and I've been encouraging people to switch for like 5 years now. | 05:54 |
| nick125 | I really wish Abiword/Gnumeric would catch up with OO.o, feature-wise. | 05:54 |
| nick125 | thad: It's probably in a third-party repository. | 05:55 |
| ubyserver | Going to make another sandwich. | 05:55 |

| nick125 | ubyserver: Make me a sandwi...oh, you probably already know where this is going. | 05:55 |
| vatzec | nick125: Yeah. Speaking of OO.o's bloat-ness, AbiWord works fast like a lightning. | 05:55 |
| vatzec | nick125: Hahaha :D | 05:55 |
| ubyserver | nick125 You have Fedex :) | 05:55 |
| vatzec | Alright, guys, going to try out Netbook Edition. If it's too third-party-ish, I'm going back to Debian. (Which I'd rather not, because the packages are from prehistory.) | 05:56 |

| ahmedramdane | ok | 06:25 |
| klex | pectoral : so what exactly does alt + ctrl + f7 do? and do i try that on the blinking cursor? | 06:25 |
| pectoral | just be careful not to run it on something that's important or has stuff on it | 06:25 |
| soldado | hi all | 06:25 |

| meowbuntu | hi anyone know of a free app that can read .pub and other publisher files | 06:26 |
| magn3ts | Is the Java JDK6 EE in Ubuntu repos? | 06:26 |

| rumpsy | yes, magn3ts | 06:26 |
| pectoral | And if something is failing, it will be there | 06:26 |
| rumpsy | magn3ts: check that @ 3rd party repo or multiverse, or restricted repos | 06:27 |

| jeepkid | just use fdisk /mbr , it can help u find your windows partition | 07:01 |
| cbx | almark, grub 2 is safe | 07:01 |

| cbx | pali, fwiw, wireless speeds depend on range and signal | 07:02 |
| cbx | check that first | 07:02 |
| almark | cbx_ hey i'm one for shortcuts too :P lol then I read all the nuts and bolts when I can | 07:02 |

| mrpink57 | eshannon: then to make folders just do mkdir | 07:04 |
| almark | cbx_ Just give me menu.lst anyday ;) | 07:04 |

| F3nix | indus: It's a black screen, and sometimes a grey screen | 07:55 |
| Jordan_U | aodell, I'm sure there is a better way, but if you want to follow your teacher's instructions you can create a virtual machine with a virtual floppy disk reading from that image | 07:55 |
| indus | aodell, remove the floppy, then put it back in and check dmesg | tail | 07:55 |
| ranjan | one more thing my cpu uses sudennly rises to 100 % when i use to brouse the colection in rythembox :: indus :: ubuntu :: do you know why there is an suden jump in cpu uses .. | 07:55 |
| indus | F3nix, model webcam | 07:55 |
| Jordan_U | aodell, That command writes the image to the floppy drive, that's why it's failing :) | 07:56 |
| indus | ranjan, it needs cpu thats why | 07:56 |
| aodell | indus: not a physical floppy. image file | 07:56 |
| indus | aodell, oh sorry | 07:56 |
| indus | missed that | 07:56 |
| aodell | no prob | 07:56 |

| Jordan_U | aodell, Yes | 07:58 |
| F3nix | indus, ahh doesnt show, could it be because the webcam is plugged into my usb hub? | 07:58 |
| ranjan | vegombrei :: i think you nead to edit all those media file and have to join into one file .. i use Audacity for that part .. | 07:58 |
| aodell | Jordan_U: thanks | 07:58 |

| Jordan_U | aodell, You can also try "sudo mount -o loop /path/to/floppy.img /mountpoint" but without a floppy image on hand and never having tried it I don't know if it will work. | 07:59 |

| almark | hello I'm trying to get grub 2 to boot my xp drive my linux drive is the Master while the xp drive is the slave when I go to type update-grub I get this grub-probe: error: Cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sdb1. Check your device.map. | 08:00 |
| ranjan | vegombrei :: there are lots of choices you can gave an try .. or you can try k3b .. this one is more towards kde environment | 08:01 |
| Jordan_U | almark, Are you running update-grub from a LiveCD? | 08:01 |
| Jordan_U | \ | 08:01 |
| almark | Jordan_U nope, but I install this system from one | 08:01 |
| almark | Jordan_U pure:dyne | 08:01 |
| almark | Jordan_U I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and its fully installed to my hard drive so its a full system | 08:02 |
| cinta | hai | 08:02 |
| ranjan | vegombrei :: brasero have done my work for burning dvd's ... | 08:02 |
| indus | F3nix, what do you mean | 08:02 |
| Kohar | almark looks like you need reinstall grub so he see right device map | 08:02 |
| Jordan_U | almark, Try renaming /boot/grub/device.map so that grub creates one on the fly, like "sudo mv /boot/grub/device.map /boot/grub/device.map-bak" | 08:02 |
| indus | F3nix, all webcams are usb isnt it | 08:02 |
| almark | Jordan_U hmm I didn't see a device map in there let me check | 08:03 |
| F3nix | F3nix, yeah but my webcam is plugged into my additional usb hub | 08:03 |
| F3nix | indus * | 08:03 |
| indus | F3nix, ok dont know that one | 08:03 |
| F3nix | indus, ahh okay man | 08:03 |
| almark | Jordan_U too many files so little time lol | 08:03 |
| indus | F3nix, did you try plug it into normal usb | 08:03 |
| almark | Jordan_U I see it | 08:03 |
| almark | Jordan_U ohhhhh lol | 08:04 |
| F3nix | indus, trying now | 08:04 |
| F3nix | indus, webcam turns on as indicated by the light, but I have no picture | 08:05 |
| indus | F3nix, click on test? | 08:05 |
| almark | Jordan_U_ its set to use sda but its on sdb its actually suppose to be on (hd1) /dev/sdb its showing (hd0) /dev/sda | 08:05 |
| F3nix | indus, tried but just get a grey/black screen | 08:05 |
| indus | F3nix, lspci \ | 08:05 |
| F3nix | lspci | 08:05 |

| indus | F3nix, just pastethe webcam line here | 08:06 |
| FirstSgt2 | like on startup. | 08:06 |
| F3nix | indus, okay let me see | 08:06 |
| Jordan_U | almark, Then renaming the file should work, device.map won't even be created by default in the next version of Ubuntu since it's not really needed any more. | 08:06 |
| CoBHC | anyone else have problems with flash being laggy? | 08:06 |

| darolu | psycho_oreos: you don't need internet to install deb files, if that's what you mean, you simply install by double clicking in GUI or with dpkg -i in command line; anyways you can check dependencies and more with apt, read the manuals: man apt-get, man apt-cache, man apt-config and man dpkg. You'll learn all you need from those manuals. | 08:21 |

| RanyAlbeg | Hi all , might be a stupid question but where is the "General" Tab | 08:23 |
| psycho_oreos | darolu, no but what I meant is that if I were to simply get bcmwl-source, it will have all the deps like kernel-headers, etc right? so if I were to go on virtualisation, I download all those necessary deb files, I then copy all those deb files and the database to the dualbooted 9.10.. paste it in the right spot.. and aptitude install bcmwl-source and it would work by reading the database? | 08:23 |
| tomcheng76 | Adman65: http://fredericiana.com/2006/10/16/fixing-backspace-and-delete-for-ssh-in-os-xs-terminalapp/ | 08:24 |
| darolu | psycho_oreos: in theory, yes, it should work just fine. | 08:24 |
| elnur | Anyone has experience with Xinerama and NVidia? | 08:24 |
| psycho_oreos | darolu, rather then having to install each and every deps, just simply make it run through and install all of it on its own | 08:24 |
| elnur | Or maybe just with Xinerama? | 08:24 |
| psycho_oreos | darolu, cool thanks | 08:25 |
| tomcheng76 | Adman65: i think you just need export TERM=linux | 08:25 |
| meowbuntu | how does vlc compare to mplayer(smplayer) for video. | 08:25 |
| Adman65 | Ya | 08:25 |
| Adman65 | i'll try that | 08:25 |
| darolu | RanyAlbeg: "General-tab"? what app? what are you trying to do? | 08:26 |
| mrpink57 | meowbuntu: to be honest I do not see much of a difference, smplayer might have a few more codecs and not as bloated. | 08:26 |

| xen_ | hey anyone able to run counter strike 1.6 wid proper FPS..??? | 08:28 |
| meowbuntu | mrpink57, smplayer needs mplayer first is that still lighter than vlc | 08:28 |
| meowbuntu | rumpsy, who is mentioned ???? | 08:28 |
| F3nix | anyone know why svn checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/linux-uvc/ command requires authentication | 08:28 |
| xen_ | counter strike FPS issue on linux... help me plzzzz | 08:29 |
| psycho_oreos | meowbuntu, if bloating is your concern, why not just use mplayer instead? | 08:29 |
| rumpsy | meowbuntu: This thing, "how does vlc compare to mplayer(smplayer) for video" | 08:29 |
| darolu | shawnboy: the only -100% safe- way to know that is to contact the web host admin and ask; keys change relatively often, i.e. when they install upgrades. | 08:29 |
| meowbuntu | psycho_oreos, smplater is better can do more | 08:29 |
| psycho_oreos | meowbuntu, no its more or less a GUI front end for mplayer itself | 08:29 |
| mrpink57 | meowbuntu: actually i just did a check they're about the same with smplayer, i do think smplayer loads faster for me at least. | 08:29 |
| shawnboy | thanks, meowbuntu. | 08:30 |
| mrpink57 | meowbuntu: however as psycho_oreos is saying that's all it is and I just use mplayer by itself now | 08:30 |

| euphorian | indus: that will get me nowhere as i cannot boot | 09:32 |
| indus | euphorian, before it goes to live cd boot again that is, or enter bios | 09:32 |
| iceroot | oz7t: you know that gcc is a compiler? not a graphic manipulation programm like gimp? | 09:32 |
| indus | euphorian, why cant you boot into windows? | 09:33 |
| euphorian | because of the grub error | 09:33 |
| shawnboy | bharat_, my experience, and I can't offer explanation, is I used terminal like in my post. | 09:33 |
| indus | oz7t, you want to program in c ? gcc is for that | 09:33 |
| indus | oz7t, the gnu c compiler g c c | 09:33 |
| oz7t | iceroot yes but some libaries should help but ?? | 09:33 |
| bharat_ | oh... ok so what do i try now... | 09:33 |
| shawnboy | bharat_, when I tried the .run files I got mixed results, so I uninstalled everything the way it needed, then did the apt-get cleanly | 09:34 |
| mngrif | oz7t: do you already know c? | 09:34 |
| Jordan_U | euphorian, "sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sdX", where X is your drive, like sda, should allow you to boot windows again. | 09:34 |
| ddavids | i mistakenly deleted my shutdown icon... how can i restore the default panel? | 09:34 |
| indus | euphorian,oh you mean you cant enter windows either from grub? | 09:34 |
| bharat_ | ok so how do i remove them the software centre? | 09:34 |
| bullgard | What programs use the environment variable ORBIT_SOCKETDIR? | 09:34 |
| Jordan_U | !panel | ddavids | 09:34 |
| indus | ddavids, right click on panel >add to panel | 09:34 |
| euphorian | indus: no Jordan_U i'll try it. | 09:34 |
| iceroot | oz7t: yes, ##c or ##c++ | 09:34 |
| iceroot | oz7t: there is a better place for that | 09:34 |
| mngrif | ddavids: right click a blank area of the menu and add item. look for it there to re-add it | 09:35 |
| oz7t | indus yes oki have made a little parallel program calling my port that okbut i would made some graphich round my program | 09:35 |
| indus | Jordan_U, apt-get ? from where ? live cd? | 09:35 |
| Jordan_U | indus, Yes | 09:35 |
| euphorian | Bus error (core dumped). 0% | 09:35 |
| indus | Jordan_U, how can you run that command if you cant boot into ubuntu???? | 09:35 |
| indus | euphorian, do you have the windows cd with you? | 09:35 |
| shawnboy | bharat_, hold on a sec. please. | 09:35 |

| shawnboy | <humbly asks> uh... ok, so I'm in xchat. how do I start a private chat? | 09:36 |
| euphorian | live cd boots | 09:36 |
| euphorian | windows doesnt | 09:36 |
| euphorian | live cd doesnt boot windows | 09:36 |
| indus | euphorian, it does? you get to a desktop? | 09:36 |

| Jordan_U | euphorian, Can you mount any partition on the hard drive ( preferably ext* but it can be anything )? | 09:38 |
| euphorian | yeah i can | 09:39 |
| eduardo | looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool | 09:39 |
| euphorian | Jordan_U* | 09:39 |
| ddavids | i would like to have it the default way pls | 09:39 |
| indus | ddavids, what is default way | 09:40 |
| indus | !panel | 09:40 |
| ddavids | the way it looked on fresh install | 09:40 |
| indus | !panels | 09:40 |
| ubottu | To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 09:40 |
| indus | its given tehr | 09:40 |
| Jordan_U | euphorian, Try "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mountpoint /dev/sdX" | 09:40 |
| ddavids | i saw something online but i dont know if it'll work 'sudo debconf gnome-panel'... | 09:40 |
| indus | ddavids, try above link first | 09:41 |
| ddavids | indus: thanks, i'll give it a shot | 09:41 |
| indus | ddavids, nothing special about panel, you can add or remove stuf to it anyway, | 09:41 |
| mngrif | would someone be kind enough to tell me how to enable using the mouse wheel (z axis) on the gnome desktop to switch virtual desktops? i'm an ex-kde user and i just can't find this tick-box anywhere in gnome! | 09:41 |
| fhermeni | hello | 09:42 |
| Jordan_U | !resetpanel | ddavids | 09:42 |
| ubottu | ddavids: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 09:42 |
| OerHeks | mngrif install compiz manager, then you can add desktop effects via system> preferences. | 09:43 |

| indus | oz7t, no problems, just stick to ubuntu support question | 09:45 |
| OerHeks | mngrif before doiing desktop effects, you have to turn it on via > system preferences theme [tab[ desktop effects | 09:45 |

| fhermeni | I have an issue with preseed: netcfg works fine by getting all the network stuff from dhcp but still asking for a hostname. I try to add the line "d-i netcfg/get_hostname string unassigned-hostname" on the config file but no change. Any idea ? | 09:49 |
| mngrif | fhermeni: any reason you're working without a hostname? | 09:50 |
| fhermeni | mngrif: it retrieves the hostname but I still have to press enter :/ | 09:51 |
| mngrif | fhermeni: ooooh. i see. sorry, can't help. my problem with it is it doesn't set my default route :( | 09:52 |
| Simon1245 | Is it possible to have Photoshop on Linux? | 09:52 |
| Simon1245 | And if so, How? | 09:52 |
| mngrif | i'll tackle that problem once i can manage windows properly :) | 09:53 |
| mneptok | Simon1245: tried The GIMP? | 09:53 |
| shawnboy | while I'm waiting for bharat_ to return, are there any users of bluefish or komodo edit here? | 09:53 |
| Simon1245 | mneptok, It's kinda hard, I don't understand that program. I've tried it once though | 09:53 |
| shawnboy | I'm looking for opinions. | 09:53 |
| mneptok | shawnboy: i use Komodo. i like it a lot. a bit slow on first launch, but that's a small niggle. | 09:54 |
| Simon1245 | mneptok, I prefear Photoshop better. It's much more easier. | 09:54 |
| mneptok | Simon1245: well worth the time to learn it, considering the cost of Photoshop | 09:54 |
| Simon1245 | mneptok, Well, I donwload :D | 09:54 |
| mngrif | bluefish serves my needs well but tbh i just use vim 99% of the time | 09:55 |
| maxagaz_ | my usb devices are not mounted automatically anymore, probably because i removed some package, what should I do ? | 09:55 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: use gimp, but if you want photoshop, use wine | 09:55 |
| Dolmio | how do i forward a free hostname that i own to my ip? | 09:55 |
| iceroot | !wine | Simon1245 | 09:55 |
| ubottu | Simon1245: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 09:55 |
| Simon1245 | I will try to learn Gimp, If I success I let Photoshop be.. | 09:55 |
| Simon1245 | Thanks for the wine idea, iceroot. | 09:55 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: yes, learning and using gimp (free software) is much better then photoshop | 09:56 |
| mneptok | Simon1245: and stop stealing. | 09:56 |
| shawnboy | mneptok, I was thinking about trying bluefish (& still will try it) but then stumbled upon Komodo Edit. It looks decent. | 09:56 |
| Dolmio | ow do i forward a free hostname that i own to my ip? | 09:56 |
| Dolmio | h | 09:56 |
| Simon1245 | mneptok, I just barrow :D | 09:56 |
| shawnboy | man I hope I don't bork this kid's system. | 09:57 |
| coz_ | shawnboy, a few borked systems under the belt and all will be well :) | 09:57 |
| Simon1245 | iceroot, mneptok, gimp isn't that different from Photoshop :S | 09:58 |
| shawnboy | coz_, :) I'm only trying to help him out and we have identical hardware, but... sometimes things happen | 09:58 |
| llutz | Dolmio: edit your nameserver-settings | 09:58 |
| Simon1245 | iceroot, mneptok I think I can use it aswell | 09:58 |
| OerHeks | !sound | 09:58 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 09:58 |
| coz_ | shawnboy, they sure do so I wouldnt bet too worried | 09:59 |
| bharat_ | shan im back to trouble u :P | 09:59 |
| Dolmio | llutz, thanks | 09:59 |
| indus | gimp now looks like photoshop i hear | 10:00 |
| tiger_ | how do i extract rar part files in linux | 10:00 |
| llutz | Dolmio: edit A-record of your host to point to your IP | 10:00 |
| Dolmio | llutz, where do i find these files? | 10:01 |
| llutz | Dolmio: usually at your domain-hosting site | 10:01 |
| indus | tiger_, install unrar package | 10:01 |
| tiger_ | sounds easy | 10:02 |
| zepher | Anyone have tips for a quick JRE install? I can't seem to get it right. | 10:02 |
| indus | tiger_, sudo apt-get install unrar-nonfree | 10:02 |
| tiger_ | ok | 10:02 |
| tiger_ | thankss | 10:02 |
| Simon1245 | unp is easier I think | 10:02 |
| bullgard | What programs use the environment variable ORBIT_SOCKETDIR? | 10:02 |
| Simon1245 | The one Dr_Willis suggested | 10:02 |
| Simon1245 | tiger_, You can try unp aswell if you want... sudo apt-get install unp | 10:03 |
| indus | Simon1245, it does unrar? | 10:03 |
| Simon1245 | tiger_, Then you can just unp filename.zip | 10:03 |
| Simon1245 | indus, Yea | 10:03 |
| indus | you ae a genius | 10:03 |
| Simon1245 | Lol :P It's thanks to Dr_Willis he told yesterday | 10:04 |
| Simon1245 | He also said you can unrar almost any type of file | 10:04 |
| indus | !info unp | 10:04 |
| ubottu | unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.15 (karmic), package size 10 kB, installed size 76 kB | 10:04 |
| indus | i prefer pzip | 10:04 |
| indus | or 7 zip rather | 10:04 |
| tiger_ | unrar is not available it seems | 10:04 |
| Simon1245 | !pzip | 10:04 |
| indus | its unbelievable | 10:04 |
| Simon1245 | !7zip | 10:04 |
| ubottu | Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 10:04 |
| Simon1245 | unp is really easy :D I go for it :D | 10:05 |
| indus | tiger_, its not? ok go to system>admin > software sources and see if multiverse and univers is ticked | 10:05 |
| Simon1245 | unp filename.extension and it's done :D | 10:05 |
| Simon1245 | Isn't it sudo apt-get install unrar, I did that yesterday or 2 days ago | 10:05 |
| Simon1245 | tiger_, Do sudo apt-get install unrar | 10:06 |
| indus | yes | 10:06 |
| Simon1245 | tiger_, That will download it | 10:06 |
| indus | Simon1245, thee is also a unrar-nonfree | 10:06 |
| indus | Simon1245, its proprietary stuff this unrar | 10:06 |
| Simon1245 | indus, Oh ok, I didn't know :D | 10:07 |
| indus | !info unrar | 10:07 |
| ubottu | unrar (source: unrar-nonfree): Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.9.3-1 (karmic), package size 100 kB, installed size 248 kB | 10:07 |
| Simon1245 | indus, But wouldn't you have to pay for the nonfree version? Since it says "not free".. | 10:07 |
| indus | no | 10:07 |
| indus | noone pays for software on linux :D | 10:07 |
| Simon1245 | Everything for linux is 100% free? | 10:08 |
| Myrtti | Simon1245: no, but most is | 10:08 |

| mngrif | bazhang: it's an ancient unix feature since mice had wheels, way back when they still had balls. i can't believe it's this difficult to find :( | 10:12 |
| bazhang | ToxiCsisM, do you have the multiverse repo enabled | 10:12 |
| vivek | Hello could u tell me how to message each person personally ? | 10:12 |

| vivek | ok bazhang | 10:14 |
| q0k | HI did you ever use mozdev.org? | 10:14 |
| bazhang | hartog, its optional, need to install | 10:15 |
| hartog | yeah, but vigr depends on it so then it seems no longer optional | 10:15 |
| hartog | can remember older versions of ubuntu shipped with vim per default | 10:15 |
| hartog | think it is strange that vigr would use vim over vi though | 10:16 |
| hartog | less code for root apps == better, right? | 10:16 |

| indus | swetha, rememnber, this is the for the port with which client listens or conencts | 10:40 |

| indus | swetha, ok nice | 10:43 |

| indus | pintook, or from terminal type sudo apt-get install openoffice.org3 | 11:48 |
| indus | you understand? | 11:48 |
| AzikaCorp | use aptitude, it is better :) | 11:48 |
| indus | pintook, try from synaptic its best | 11:48 |
| pintook | indus; if i search for openoffice wht do i do next | 11:49 |
| BobGreenwill | i'm out of Japan and out of USA... i can't buy a fujitsu s7220 laptop here... if i order it from japan and ubuntu doesn't run on it i'll have big troubles...i didn't find this model at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Fujitsu ... maybe you could test it and add your results to that page? | 11:49 |
| mngrif | AzikaCorp: different tool for a different way of doing the same job. they both rule over apt-get | 11:49 |
| indus | pintook, when you search , you will see a lot of open office packages, just install openoffice.org3 | 11:49 |

| Greenwill | you know anything about ubuntu and fujitsu lifebook s7220 ? | 11:51 |
| AzikaCorp | you have a description of the paquet , and a flag which to know if it's already installed :). | 11:51 |

| kjelle | Or, why does it think it is a configuration file, as I just did "cp -r X $(CURDIR)/debian/mypackage/etc/init.d/" in the debian/rules file's "install:"? It is a init script, not a configuration file! | 11:54 |
| Greenwill | i'm in korea | 11:54 |

| Greenwill | ... | 11:56 |
| pintook | indus i do not know | 11:56 |
| indus | !webmin | 11:56 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 11:56 |
| brontosaurusrex | kristof78: i'am running pureftpd | 11:56 |

| rwwilco | a question regarding xorg. I've done a very basic install of ubuntu(didn't select any packages from the installer, just whats default). Now i am trying to build up the most basic X11 install on top of it i can. I've installed xserver-xorg, but sudo X -configure is giving me a bad xorg.conf | 12:05 |
| pintook | indus which folder | 12:05 |
| indus | pintook, from .openoffice.org | 12:05 |
| indus | pintook, delete that folder | 12:05 |
| rwwilco | most things online suggest sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but that gives no output, just back to command line | 12:05 |
| pintook | ok indus | 12:06 |
| indus | pintook, just open the window manager and select 'show hidden files and folders' and delete the .openoffice.org folder | 12:06 |
| pintook | i have done that indus | 12:07 |
| rwwilco | the heart of my question really is: without installig a million things through the tasks list, how do i get the standard ubuntu xorg configurator running? | 12:07 |
| rwwilco | what is the standard xorg configurator, how does ubuntu do that? | 12:07 |
| indus | pintook, so did you reinstall open office ? | 12:08 |
| indus | pintook, so try open word doc now | 12:08 |
| bullgard | What programs use the environment variable DEBEMAIL? | 12:08 |
| jrib | bullgard: packaging programs | 12:09 |
| pintook | indus i hve not done the reinstallation | 12:10 |
| indus | pintook, do it | 12:10 |
| rwwilco | so any ideas, anyone know what program is used to setup the xorg configuration if i had just installed the ubuntu-desktop task or whatnot? | 12:10 |
| pintook | indus how do i go about it | 12:10 |
| indus | pintook, i told you, from synaptic | 12:10 |
| owner | !apache | 12:10 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 12:10 |
| peope | I can only see 4gb ram of 8gb although I have x64 version installed. from uname -a "Linux silver 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 02:39:34 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux" | 12:11 |
| peope | How can I make it use 8gb instead? | 12:11 |
| pintook | indus i am there but there are to many openoffice file names | 12:11 |
| jrib | rwwilco: why do you assume such a thing exists? It doesn't afaik | 12:11 |
| indus | pintook, ok can i see a screenshot ? | 12:11 |
| pintook | ok | 12:12 |
| rwwilco | jrib: so when ubuntu is installed it just drops the user on the command line? i expected that when not installing X, but i assume when X is installed it will be configured | 12:12 |
| jrib | rwwilco: no, it doesn't just drop you in the command line. gdm starts by default. Is that your question? | 12:12 |
| rwwilco | well, i dont want gnome or any of that, Its a netbook with 8gb cf card, no room for gnome | 12:13 |
| rwwilco | so the magic to configure it is inside gdm package? | 12:13 |
| pintook | indus http://imagebin.org/85002 | 12:13 |
| jrib | rwwilco: no, what window manager will you be using? | 12:14 |
| rwwilco | blackbox | 12:14 |
| rwwilco | jrib: basically blackbox and a web browser, thats about all i'm looking for | 12:14 |
| jrib | rwwilco: install blackbox and xorg then | 12:14 |
| jrib | rwwilco: and gdm/kdm/xdm/whatever if you want to get X starting by default | 12:15 |
| rwwilco | i have the pair of them installed, just not sure where to go from there xorg needs configuration | 12:15 |
| patsbin | morning | 12:15 |
| Dolmio | how do i make it so that proftpd (ftp server) as one of my start up programs/services? when i reboot? | 12:15 |
| patsbin | Does anybody have an idea why ubuntu doesn't detect ntfs partitions which are encrypted with truecrypt on startup? blockdev --rereadpt solves the problem, but I'm just wondering why ubuntu doesn't detect it automagically. | 12:15 |
| jrib | rwwilco: xorg needs no configuration | 12:15 |
| rwwilco | jrib: hmm, because with no configuration it just pulls up a black scren, and i alt-f1 to get back to console | 12:16 |
| jrib | rwwilco: how are you running it? | 12:16 |
| rwwilco | jrib: thank you btw, getting somewhere usefull now i think :) | 12:16 |
| rwwilco | jrib: startx | 12:16 |
| jrib | rwwilco: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 12:16 |
| jrib | rwwilco: wait. You setup a window manager right? | 12:17 |
| rwwilco | rwwilco: in ~/.xsession | 12:17 |
| rwwilco | jrib: in ~/.xsession i have the blackbox command | 12:18 |
| peope | Which kernel should I use to have a 64bit ubuntu version access > 4gb ram? | 12:18 |
| jrib | rwwilco: right, so when you say "black screen" you are sure X is not running? | 12:18 |
| rwwilco | yea, it has the blinking underscore for where the cursor is : | 12:18 |
| alankila | peope: kernel doesn't matter for 64-bit | 12:18 |
| rww | peope: the standard linux-image-generic accesses it fine. | 12:18 |
| jrib | rwwilco: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log though you should copy your .xsession to .xinitrc just to be sure | 12:18 |
| rwwilco | hmm, might be xinitrc instead, been a few years here :) | 12:19 |
| rwwilco | lemme try switching it over | 12:19 |
| peope | Problem is it only shows 4gb ram although I have 8gb | 12:19 |
| inveratulo | peope does your bios show that it recognizes all the ram? | 12:20 |
| peope | inveratulo: yes. And it dual boots into vista 64 bit and shows 8 gb | 12:20 |
| rwwilco | jrib: switching to .xinitrc solved it, i wonder is xsession an outdated filename from XF86 then? xorg uses new convention . . . either way doesn't really matter glad it works now :) | 12:21 |
| inveratulo | peope: Can we see your "uname -a" ? | 12:21 |
| peope | "Linux silver 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 02:39:34 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux" | 12:22 |
| inveratulo | peope: and "free -m" ? | 12:22 |
| Xintruder | hi | 12:22 |
| jrib | rwwilco: .xsession gets used by session managers like gdm,kdm,xdm :) | 12:22 |
| zamanian | yes indeed it did | 12:22 |
| ashutosh | hiiiiii | 12:22 |
| Xintruder | how can I install xchat with a command in terminal, in ubuntu? | 12:22 |

| peope | inveratulo: "Mem: 3956 2343 1612 0 124 454" | 12:23 |
| rww | Xintruder: sudo apt-get install xchat | 12:23 |
| jrib | rwwilco: personally, I just link them so they are the same file... | 12:23 |
| peope | inveratulo: ^^ | 12:23 |
| peope | It's a core i7 (intel 860) system | 12:24 |
| Xintruder | how to update all applications using a command? | 12:24 |
| rww | Xintruder: sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get upgrade | 12:24 |
| jrib | rwwilco: Anyway, if you install gdm/kdm/xdm you don't even need one since the blackblox package provides a system-wide one | 12:24 |

| racha | Hello i need a little help about my 5.1 so .... | 12:37 |
| peope | Maybe I used the wrong kernel? | 12:38 |
| fen` | Dr_Willis, its ssh agent but i've written it to start on selected screen session (based on name) and this will help me kill the process prior to exit using a pid var stored in the environemnt. | 12:38 |
| seli | k soy española | 12:38 |
| inveratulo | peope: you booted from the same kernel right? | 12:38 |
| rww | ubottu: es | seli | 12:38 |
| ubottu | seli: 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. | 12:38 |
| fen` | thanks for the pointer | 12:38 |
| rww | ooo, factoid changed | 12:38 |
| peope | inveratulo: I think so... but it would be logical if I didn't. | 12:38 |
| Newky | yo | 12:38 |
| peope | Well... thank you very much for your kind help :) | 12:39 |
| inveratulo | peope: yea. I cannot rationalize why, given what you told us before, it wasn't working | 12:39 |
| rww | peope: either something you changed took effect after reboot, or you're having RAM problems :/ | 12:39 |
| seli | ola | 12:39 |
| rww | ubottu: es > seli | 12:39 |
| ubottu | seli, please see my private message | 12:39 |
| seli | ola | 12:39 |
| inveratulo | rww, peope, i thought that but dmidecode came back with chips on all four slots, and it recognized all the ram even tho the OS was not | 12:39 |
| bazhang | seli, here is english only | 12:39 |
| bazhang | seli, /join #ubuntu-es | 12:40 |
| peope | inveratulo: that is comforting at least :) | 12:40 |
| inveratulo | peope: maybe its time to go play the lottery :-p | 12:40 |
| peope | Maybe need to upgrade the distro or something | 12:40 |
| peope | inveratulo: lol | 12:40 |
| peope | As I said. Thank you very much for you kind (and free help) ^^ | 12:41 |
| peope | I will try to bug it somewhere if it happens again | 12:41 |
| minderaser | There's a command that will tell you what OS and web server a site is running, but I can't remember what it is. Any help? | 12:42 |
| peope | minderaser: telnet? | 12:42 |
| racha | I need help with my 5.1 i cant get it to work ... when i play my song it don't work but when i go back to stereo and then turn on 5.1 its working, after restarting that same application its not working agein ... | 12:42 |
| cbx | Is it possible to make the taskbar icons only ? (Like win7?) [remove the labels] | 12:42 |
| cbx | And can I get titlebar transparency? | 12:42 |
| racha | again* | 12:42 |
| peope | telnet <host> 80 .... then HEAD / 1.0 | 12:43 |
| peope | nmap would make it possible to guess the os | 12:43 |
| Dr_Willis | cbx: check out the 'dockbarx' and 'dockbar' panel applets | 12:43 |
| bazhang | cbx, the panels? right click properties and choose solid color then adjust the transparency level | 12:44 |
| cbx | Transparency for the titlebar's | 12:44 |
| cbx | I just moved from win7, and that looked really good :P | 12:44 |
| Dr_Willis | cbx: compiz has more features for silly useless eyecandy then you can imagine | 12:44 |
| Dr_Willis | !ccsm | cbx | 12:45 |
| ubottu | cbx: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 12:45 |
| minderaser | peope: thanks, but that didn't work for me. And I just realized I have to run. I'll look into it later | 12:45 |
| * Dr_Willis finds transparent titlebars annoying and harder to read | 12:45 | |
| * peope find most default installed themes on ubuntu more or less unreadable :) | 12:46 | |
| Dr_Willis | dockbarx - a smaller 'window listing applet' for the panel http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/DockbarX?content=101604 | 12:46 |
| rambo3 | Dr_Willis, is transparent | 12:46 |
| peope | Human is really good though | 12:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Im using some theme from 9.10 right now. :) | 12:46 |

| om26er | !info telepathy-sofiasip | 12:48 |
| PsychoMari0 | is it possible to assign a virtual network interface to a single process? | 12:48 |

| peope | well... I would guess a virtual network interface in terms of eth0:1 is just another ip-address to the interface eth0? | 12:49 |
| eddy1 | Hello | 12:49 |
| eddy1 | can we use dcop command to rename konsole tab ? I am using ubuntu 9.10 | 12:50 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: yes, i want to have a few services running in my chroot which has a different IP to that of the main computer, but i want it to think the virtual interface is actually the only real one | 12:50 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: there *might* be some way with iptables... but I am not sure. Never seen that configuration. | 12:51 |
| peope | however I doubt a chroot can be tied to an ip-address just like that | 12:52 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: there must be some good use for it... it might be implemented somewhere... | 12:53 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: there is virtualization.. but I havn't seen any chroot implementations | 12:53 |
| fen` | hmm it appears under screen that .bash_logout doesn't work. | 12:53 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: http://www.r1ch.net/stuff/forcebindip/ there is a windows version of the same kind of thing | 12:54 |
| jrib | fen`: isn't bash_logout only for login shells? | 12:54 |
| wildman | hello there. I'm using 9.10 64 bit version, I had firebug installed in Firefox. After some update, a few months ago, Firebug stopped working (I *need* it in my developing toolbox) crashing firefox each time I tried to open Firebug. Any ideas? | 12:54 |
| fen` | ah right, is there a .logout for any interactive shell? | 12:54 |
| jrib | fen`: doubtful, why do you want one? | 12:55 |
| fen` | ssh-agent | 12:55 |
| jrib | fen`: I don't use ssh-agent but I'm sure it's used enough that the documentation should cover setup, no? | 12:56 |
| fen` | i only start it as a part of .bashrc if a specific screen session is being started, i want to close ssh-agent if screen gets closed. | 12:56 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: If you are interested in programming I have made a lib/prog that set the ip for a specific process being run. (Alpha though) | 12:57 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: http://www.peope.net/old/dev/setip/ | 12:57 |
| ensi | hello anyone know how to startup an application at startup with upstart? i when emit a signal to start my app with initctl it just runs and stops straight away | 12:57 |
| iceroot | fen`: maybe rsh with screen? | 12:57 |
| iceroot | fen`: rsh is only executing one command and then close the connection after the command is finished | 12:58 |
| be2nzs | hai | 12:58 |
| wildman | Firefox segfaults when trying to open Firebug | 12:58 |
| wildman | way to go... | 12:58 |
| perryarmstrong | how can i edit my apache2 configurations..where is it located | 12:58 |
| wildman | perryarmstrong: /etc/httpd/ IIRC | 12:58 |
| iceroot | perryarmstrong: sudo vim /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | 12:58 |
| jrib | fen`: can't you do something like ssh-agent COMMAND to start your shell? | 12:58 |
| wildman | ah, apache2 :) | 12:59 |
| cbx | time to find out best way to share files between winblows and ubuntu | 12:59 |
| jrib | fen`: man ssh-agent: "If a commandline is given, this is executed as a subprocess of the agent. When the command dies, so does the agent. | 12:59 |
| be2nzs | hai all | 12:59 |
| fen` | jrib, its more like eval `ssh-agent` and then kill $SSH_AGENT_PID | 12:59 |
| f4bry | using cmake I obtain this message: Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/gcc -- broken | 12:59 |
| f4bry | why? | 12:59 |
| perryarmstrong | thank you | 12:59 |
| jrib | fen`: yes, that's what you are trying to do. But the man page and some other random tutorials I just came across suggest another way | 13:00 |
| fen` | spose i could use that and create a screen alias | 13:00 |
| fen` | old habits break hard :) | 13:00 |
| iceroot | fen`: rsh or ssh command | 13:00 |
| fen` | iceroot, rsh isn't secure. | 13:00 |
| stdisease | f4bry, do you have g++ installed? | 13:01 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: wouldn't put my typing-puke excuse of a program on a production system though :) | 13:01 |
| iceroot | fen`: why? | 13:01 |
| be2nzs | hai all i cant on line in yahoo messenger using kopete any ideas | 13:01 |
| iceroot | fen`: its ssh | 13:01 |
| fen` | ssh is what im using ssh-agent to manage, so thats a chicken and egg game that one. | 13:02 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: If you explain what you want to do I *might* come up with an alternative solution? :) | 13:02 |
| f4bry | stdisease, yes | 13:02 |
| f4bry | stdisease, well....I think | 13:03 |
| wildman | Firebug 1.4.5 works fine, Firebug 1.5 makes Firefox segfault. Any ideas? | 13:03 |
| Pici | wildman: 64 bit? | 13:03 |
| zamanian | Chromium | 13:03 |

| wulingfeng | Hello. | 13:03 |
| wildman | Pici: yes, 9.10 64 bit | 13:03 |
| wulingfeng | how to play c&c tiberian sun on ubuntu without wine? | 13:04 |
| fen` | iceroot, rsh is basically like sending ur password over network (and/or world readable /tmp socket) in plain text | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis | wulingfeng: short answer. You dont. | 13:04 |
| Pici | wildman: I believe this bug has already been reported, let me find a link for you. | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis | wulingfeng: unless you want to run windows in virtualbox or somthing | 13:04 |
| wulingfeng | aint there a fork out there? | 13:04 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: basically i want to run things like ssh ftp apache etc. inside a chroot, with a seperate IP from the host machine, i know i can do with with the config files for all the programs, but i want to have it so that the chroot has its own interface, so that any traffic comes in and out of it, regardless of config files | 13:04 |
| Elive_user58_en | hi everybody, i cant seem to get totem working inside firefox on ubuntu 8.04, 9.04, and ubuntu 9.10, any other players that have a plugin for firefox that works? (i have firefox 3.0) | 13:04 |
| stdisease | f4bry, are you able to run 'g++' from the command line? | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis | wulingfeng: no idea. never hared of a GPL spinoff.. if one exists then google would know | 13:04 |
| wildman | Pici: ok, thx | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis | wulingfeng: but thats not what you asked about. :) | 13:05 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: maybe a virtualization alternative would be proper? | 13:05 |
| f4bry | stdisease, man g++ works | 13:05 |
| root_grapefruit | hello does anybody know how to copile c code that uses ldap.h ? | 13:05 |
| stdisease | f4bry, also try running 'cmake CXX=g++ ...' | 13:05 |
| wulingfeng | ok, freecnc will work | 13:05 |
| wulingfeng | thanks Dr_Willis | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | wulingfeng: google pointed me to --> http://cnctdredux.cnc-comm.com/news.php | 13:06 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: something like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenVZ perhaps? | 13:06 |
| === asd is now known as Guest36060 | ||
| PsychoMari0 | peope: yeah, probably, but that involves setting up a whole new OS. i have used virtualbox before, it would be so much easier using a chroot, becuase then i can copy file to a from really easily. but if virtualisation is the only way, ill have another look | 13:06 |
| f4bry | stdisease,? | 13:06 |
| root_grapefruit | I tried gcc -o bind bind.c -ldap but i did not work | 13:06 |
| Pici | wildman: See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.5/+bug/449744 and http://blog.getfirebug.com/2010/01/19/64-bit-firefox-on-linux-crashes-with-firebug-1-5-0/ | 13:06 |

| peope | PsychoMari0: Wouldnt say it is the only way | 13:06 |
| wulingfeng | yes, found freecnc and freera | 13:07 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: that openvz looks interesting... | 13:07 |
| wulingfeng | gonna take a look at the src | 13:07 |
| stdisease | root_grapefruit, what output do you get?? | 13:07 |
| wildman | Pici: I will, thank you! | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis | wulingfeng: dont forget freecol and freeciv and free beer. :) | 13:07 |
| peope | chroot alone is not very safe | 13:07 |
| rww | wulingfeng: freecnc is a copy of the original C&C, not Tiberian Sun. It also appears to be unmaintained. | 13:07 |
| wulingfeng | Dr_Willis, dont forget to free the world | 13:08 |
| Elive_user58_en | hi everybody, i cant seem to get totem working inside firefox on ubuntu 8.04, 9.04, and ubuntu 9.10, any other players that have a plugin for firefox that works? (i have firefox 3.0) and i cant get any newer flash then 9.0 into firefox for ubuntu 8.04 | 13:08 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: hmmm... there seem to be tools in the repos for openvz, but not the program itself? | 13:08 |
| stdisease | f4bry, I don't have a linux system at my disposable at the moment but you should be able to override the 'CXX' variable with a value of your own choosing | 13:08 |
| wildman | thx ppl, bye | 13:08 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: sorry to say I am not an OpenVZ expert | 13:08 |
| wildman | I'll keep FB 1.4.5 for now ;) | 13:08 |
| cbx | how do I create a shortcut on the desktop? Dragging isn't working | 13:08 |

| fen` | love the non-latin charsets. | 13:12 |
| patsbin | Does anybody have an idea why ubuntu doesn't detect ntfs partitions which are encrypted with truecrypt on startup? blockdev --rereadpt solves the problem. | 13:12 |
| indus | all those regional rooms are mostly empty | 13:12 |
| Elive_user58_en | because they are encrypded | 13:12 |
| indus | why do you keep pointing people there | 13:12 |
| indus | its better to learn some english and come in here | 13:12 |
| Elive_user58_en | ya :D | 13:12 |
| indus | easy language too | 13:13 |
| indus | takes a week to learn really | 13:13 |
| peope | well... if you point them there they will be empty no more ;) | 13:13 |
| indus | they still wont go there | 13:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Iv heard the #ubuntu-redneck room is really hopping! | 13:13 |

| indus | for example, ubuntu has an indian channel too, but all indians speak english there :) | 13:13 |
| indus | !in | 13:13 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India | 13:13 |
| indus | lol | 13:13 |
| peope | I guess it is a nicer way to say "stfu nub" | 13:13 |
| indus | #ubuntu-in | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Every time i say 'no hablo' people think i can speek spaish and start pming me stuff in spanish. :) | 13:14 |
| owner | Teach me to constrain my Ubuntu do what I say and want to | 13:14 |
| fen` | peope, people wouldn't say that this is ubuntu, nice and friendly community.. of idlers. | 13:14 |
| iceroot | indus: sometimes its hard to descripte the problem in another language, also its hard to post screenshots/pastebin with non-english text | 13:14 |
| peope | What is really needed is a support-channel in esparanto | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | peope: how about sign-language | 13:15 |
| fen` | Dr_Willis, try no hablo de espanol. | 13:15 |
| peope | Dr_Willis: that would be cool! | 13:15 |
| indus | whatis no hablo | 13:15 |

| ubottu | Kartagis: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 13:21 |
| indus | iceroot, that was a revelation | 13:21 |
| fen` | indus, what official docs? | 13:21 |
| Kartagis | zamanian, when you view a webpage with flash, you see huge play buttons | 13:21 |
| Elive_user58_en | indus: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html is where the archives for adobe flash are, just click and download the version you want | 13:21 |
| vegombrei | hello? | 13:21 |
| indus | Elive_user58_en, does it have a 64 bit flash 9 :P | 13:21 |
| wulingfeng | damn, the source is like six years old | 13:21 |
| dayo | i ftp'd into a server. how do i check disk usage in the current directory? `du -sh .` won't work. | 13:21 |
| indus | fen`, nvm | 13:21 |
| Elive_user58_en | no, 32 bit flash | 13:21 |
| zamanian | Kartagis: Isn't that flashblock doing that? :) | 13:21 |
| indus | fen`, ignored | 13:21 |
| Elive_user58_en | but i can only get version 9 opn my ubuntu 8.04, cant get version 10 | 13:22 |
| Kartagis | zamanian, no, I removed swfdec and voila | 13:22 |
| indus | Elive_user58_en, you can of couse, download from adobe dick | 13:22 |
| indus | the reference is to the whale of course | 13:22 |
| Elive_user58_en | indus, if you mean archives for version 10, i tried but not working | 13:22 |
| indus | i tried gnash but i found swfdev more smooth | 13:23 |
| indus | Elive_user58_en, not working ?did you remove old flash | 13:23 |
| Elive_user58_en | ya | 13:23 |

| indus | clear your head too | 13:24 |
| Elive_user58_en | i did that 2 | 13:24 |
| zamanian | Kartagis: very strange. Well, flash is a pile of junk and has been since forever because it's used in such poor ways. Like complete site design, and video playing. :S | 13:24 |
| indus | :) | 13:24 |
| fen` | the first time i looked at the official doc for webcams, it took ~10 seconds to load the actual content, i assumed it was empty. | 13:24 |
| indus | zamanian, dont call it junk, its hard work to create such stuff | 13:24 |
| indus | junk or no junk | 13:24 |
| Elive_user58_en | ok now flash 9 is removed....noiw going out to install version 10 | 13:24 |
| indus | i rephrase it , flash 10 is junk, but 8 was super | 13:24 |
| indus | and 9 i remember | 13:25 |
| indus | how can you make a newer version that is so so bad | 13:25 |
| zamanian | indus: Hard work doesn't equal high quality necessarily :) | 13:25 |
| indus | yeah but thats being human no | 13:25 |
| indus | like hard work in the potty :D | 13:26 |
| zamanian | nah not necessarily | 13:26 |
| indus | ok off topic | 13:26 |
| stdisease | :) | 13:26 |
| zamanian | You can't polish a turd and make it beautiful as someone said | 13:26 |
| indus | is anyone using the eyefinity feature of new ati cards? | 13:26 |
| zamanian | no matter how flashy you make a flash site, it'll be slow and have problems, surely | 13:26 |
| owner | I am usgin | 13:26 |

| zamanian | then again I'm a minimalist | 13:27 |
| indus | owner, you rich then , how many monitors you using? | 13:27 |
| owner | 2 | 13:27 |
| zamanian | but don't let that fool you and think I don't like flashy design, it's just that it can be efficient. | 13:27 |
| owner | twoo | 13:27 |
| owner | one and one | 13:27 |

| indus | mmm | 13:28 |
| indus | ok | 13:28 |
| Elive_user58_en | indus, i removed 9, then went out to get adobe 10, chose .deb for ubuntu 8.04+, and it says "error: depandacy not satisfiavle: libpango1.0-0" | 13:29 |
| indus | here is a tip> i was helping a guy all afternoon with menus not displaying in open office , just change the fonts , enable subpixel smoothing | 13:29 |
| Elive_user58_en | so now what? | 13:29 |
| indus | Elive_user58_en, aah yes you have 8.04 | 13:29 |
| zamanian | anybody knows a windows 7 channel? I'm having some problems with my fonts showing as italic. | 13:29 |
| stdisease | Elive_user58_en, try the rpm and use 'alien' | 13:29 |
| Elive_user58_en | yep, 8.04 | 13:29 |
| vegombrei | firefox isnt playing videos of youtube anymore .. is there an update or patch to fix this? | 13:29 |
| indus | Elive_user58_en, dont use deb, use the tar, the move the libflashplayer.so to mozilla plugins folder | 13:29 |
| rww | zamanian: ##windows | 13:29 |
| Elive_user58_en | okey... | 13:29 |
| stdisease | Elive_user58_en, if all fails use the .tar | 13:29 |

| Elive_user58_en | okey i will... | 13:29 |

| indus | Gangrel, so later add it to fstab as so, on one line #/dev/partitionname and on next line uuid <filesystem type> etc | 13:59 |
| grobda24 | roxdragon, hence the socket errors maybe | 13:59 |
| indus | histo, hi what was the pproblem with the HDD not showing? | 13:59 |
| marlen | how can I shift some icons on the left of the upper panel? I'using xubuntu.. | 13:59 |
| wacek | hey, why can't I remove Firefox from Ubuntu? | 14:00 |
| === trineox is now known as Guest87266 | ||
| stdisease | tiger_, hmm try flashplayer-nonfree-extrasound if you have that | 14:00 |
| nitin | how to know from a bash command whats the device for mount point '/' | 14:00 |
| iceroot | nitin: df | 14:00 |
| indus | nitin, mount does it | 14:01 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, last step | 14:01 |
| llutz | nitin: df / | 14:01 |
| d3vic3 | wacek, do you have permissions to remove applications? | 14:01 |
| iceroot | wacek: sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox | 14:01 |
| nitin | iceroot: I get to see /dev/root | 14:01 |
| stdisease | 'file /dev/root' | 14:01 |
| histo | indus: I thinik its a problem with udev not seeing it on boot. But if he invokes udev to search it will see it. | 14:01 |
| nitin | and its a symbolic link to /dev/hda1 | 14:01 |
| wacek | I do, I can't remove it through the software center thingy though. There's no remove button, only update. | 14:01 |
| nitin | but all this I need to know in a script | 14:01 |
| roxdragon | grobda24, but http:ip_server_iscecast:port work | 14:01 |
| iceroot | nitin: then you know the device | 14:01 |
| indus | histo, so how do you invoke it? | 14:01 |
| wacek | Removing through sudo indeed does work though. Isn't that just weird? | 14:01 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, did you clicked button 8 first? | 14:01 |
| roxdragon | don't work internet console dj | 14:02 |
| iceroot | wacek: no | 14:02 |
| wacek | How does the control center determine when you can remove apps then? | 14:02 |
| FeedHunter | what's a good multi-window chat client....Im using xchat but I dont like having to bounce between windows. | 14:02 |
| iceroot | wacek: you always need sudo for such operations | 14:02 |
| nitin | iceroot: I didn't get you | 14:02 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, yes | 14:02 |
| wacek | iceroot, no, you don't get my point. It asks you for root permissions when you want to install something. (The control center.) | 14:02 |
| wacek | I know Linux. | 14:02 |
| nitin | U mean the script should further check whats the link pointing to? | 14:02 |
| iceroot | wacek: correct | 14:02 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, all the date is ther, entered but the button remains greyed out | 14:02 |
| iceroot | wacek: and for that you need sudo or gksudo | 14:02 |
| llutz | !pm > Simon1245 | 14:03 |
| ubottu | Simon1245, please see my private message | 14:03 |
| iceroot | !sudo | wacek | 14:03 |
| ubottu | wacek: sudo is a command to run command-line ( see !cli ) programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 14:03 |
| wacek | My point is, there's no "Remove" button in Firefox list item, but there is one for eg. X-Chat. Why so? | 14:03 |
| wacek | I know Linux. | 14:03 |
| histo | FeedHunter: pidgin or empathy | 14:03 |
| histo | !best | FeedHunter | 14:03 |
| ubottu | FeedHunter: 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. | 14:03 |
| Simon1245 | llutz Ok | 14:03 |
| indus | wacek, the software center is not finished | 14:03 |
| iceroot | wacek: dont know, i am not using a gui for that, just using apt-get | 14:03 |
| wacek | You're making an idiot out of me, when my question is: why can't I remove something from the control panel, when I can do it for other programs and apt-get remove works fine. | 14:03 |
| FeedHunter | Im sorry I meant IRC client | 14:03 |
| histo | indus: sudo udevadm trigger | 14:03 |
| wacek | iceroot, yeah, but at times it's nice to use graphical tools. :) | 14:04 |
| wacek | indus, oh, I see. :) Thanks! | 14:04 |
| indus | wacek, also i believe firefox is integral to ubuntu and so maybe software center doesnt allow | 14:04 |
| iceroot | wacek: maybe | 14:04 |
| Simon1245 | llutz, Can you read what I wrote? :D It's not a question regarding Ubuntu | 14:04 |
| wacek | indus, yeah, I thought so, but apt-get remove works fine and doesn't delete any more apps. | 14:04 |
| indus | wacek, but frankly avoid it till 10,04 comes out, i cant see either install or remove button sometimes | 14:04 |
| wacek | ... other than Firefox. | 14:04 |
| iceroot | wacek: because of that, apt-get is better then a gui, because it is working and doing what you want :) | 14:04 |
| wacek | indus, oh, okay, I thought they should have released it by now. This is my first Ubuntu after like a year. | 14:05 |
| indus | wacek, released what | 14:05 |
| indus | i love synaptic | 14:05 |
| indus | its brilliant | 14:05 |
| wacek | indus, the new app-store like control center | 14:05 |
| grobda24 | roxdragon, hmmm, don't know then. Does idjc have an IRC channel, plus try searching for those errors on te net :) | 14:05 |
| Simon1245 | indus, Ubuntu Control Center is cool aswell or whatever it's called | 14:05 |
| indus | wacek, yes the store might come in with 10,04 i think for now its just install .remove | 14:05 |
| Simon1245 | Ubuntu Software Center | 14:05 |
| histo | indus: you can remove firefox from ubuntu. | 14:06 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, may you give me a screenshot like mine plz? | 14:06 |
| indus | histo, yes i know, just gueesing you cant from software center i mean | 14:06 |
| indus | wacek, had that issue | 14:06 |
| histo | indus: yeah you can | 14:06 |
| indus | ok then wacek cant | 14:06 |
| FeedHunter | Im just looking for an irc client that will allow me to tile multiple channels | 14:06 |
| indus | !irc | 14:07 |
| ubottu | A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines | 14:07 |
| wacek | indus, Ubuntu store? Like what could you buy there? | 14:07 |
| histo | indus: software center / synaptic shouldn't matter. Its just a gui version of apt. | 14:07 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, i will try to do that | 14:07 |
| Simon1245 | indus, You can write sudo apt-get remove firefox :D I just tried | 14:07 |
| histo | wacek: you don't buy anything | 14:07 |
| Simon1245 | It worked but i'm not sure if it really uninstalls :D | 14:07 |
| roxdragon | grobda24, what's the channel irc idjc?? | 14:07 |
| wacek | Simon1245, yeah, but that doesn't really remove Fx. You have to also input firefox-3.5. | 14:07 |
| indus | histo, well, it does because functionality is limited with the center compared to synaptic | 14:07 |
| indus | but nvm | 14:07 |
| wacek | histo, so you the software center? | 14:07 |
| histo | wacek: indus they've got it currently named Ubuntu Software Center | 14:07 |
| Simon1245 | wacek, Oh ok, I don't want to remove it though :D Firefox owns :D | 14:07 |
| Gangrel | histo, i am formating it via gparted | 14:07 |
| indus | wacek, you could buy stuff from 10,04 is what i hear | 14:07 |
| perlas_ | hi all | 14:07 |
| wacek | Simon1245, I prefer SeaMonkey. :) | 14:07 |
| histo | wacek: indus in lucid | 14:07 |
| Simon1245 | Btw, Is it possible to run Chrome on Linux? | 14:08 |
| histo | Gangrel: k | 14:08 |
| forceflow | Simon1245: yep | 14:08 |
| forceflow | just download latest chrome .deb from chrome website | 14:08 |
| KamalinO | hey all.. i finished installing ubuntu desktop on a server 9.04, everything works fine, expect NAUTILUS doesn't really work. Here's the output when trying the command: sudo nautilus | 14:08 |
| Simon1245 | wacek, I've never tried SeaMonkey :P | 14:08 |
| KamalinO | http://paste.ubuntu.com/377617/ | 14:08 |
| forceflow | I prefer it over firefox | 14:08 |
| KamalinO | any idea? | 14:08 |
| Simon1245 | forceflow, Ok thanks for answering | 14:08 |
| indus | i was testing it before and i read that somewhere thats why they called it store before | 14:08 |
| grobda24 | roxdragon, sorry, don't know if they have one | 14:08 |
| Simon1245 | forceflow, Do you run Firefox or Chrome? | 14:08 |
| wacek | Simon1245, you can fix various annoyances right from the default options dialog and you don't need any extensions. :) | 14:08 |
| perlas_ | does exists someone from lithuania? | 14:08 |
| forceflow | Simon1245: Chrome | 14:08 |
| indus | KamalinO, always use gksu nautilus | 14:08 |
| FeedHunter | Simon1245 ...so do I..Chrome is a good fit | 14:08 |
| indus | KamalinO, for graphical apps always gksu | 14:09 |
| histo | Gangrel: I have to go but you should be able to get help on mounting the drive just make sure you get the uuid and create the mount point. | 14:09 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, sorry i dont have my Snagit and cannot easily capture just that monitor alone | 14:09 |
| Simon1245 | forceflow, FeedHunter, Oh ok, I might try it later | 14:09 |
| Simon1245 | wacek, Cool | 14:09 |
| wacek | It's a good thing they release something that's not finished yet. >_> | 14:09 |
| perlas_ | labadiena | 14:09 |
| wacek | I mean the dudes from Canonical. | 14:09 |
| Simon1245 | forceflow, FeedHunter What's better with Chrome that Firefox doesn't got? Speed difference or anything like that? | 14:09 |
| indus | well, kind of gets more feedback befoer the LTS | 14:09 |
| co_sobat | ss | 14:09 |
| KamalinO | here's error message i get with gksu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/377621/ | 14:09 |
| co_sobat | ja | 14:10 |
| indus | KamalinO, what is your graphics? | 14:10 |
| perlas_ | what is a kde? | 14:10 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, ok i found the ubuntu snagit, where do i send the file to? | 14:10 |
| indus | perlas_, its a desktop environment | 14:10 |
| indus | !kde | perlas_ | 14:10 |
| ubottu | perlas_: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. For more information on KDE 4, see !kde4 | 14:10 |
| FeedHunter | Simon1245 ...I think speed and IMHO it just feel more natural...easier to use | 14:10 |
| KamalinO | indus: it's a VPS, running through HYPERVM | 14:10 |
| wacek | Is Evolution superior to Thunderbird in any way (except for Ubuntu integration)? | 14:10 |
| Simon1245 | FeedHunter, Oh ok | 14:11 |
| indus | oh thats why maybe , sorry i dont know about vps | 14:11 |
| indus | !vm | 14:11 |
| ubottu | There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 14:11 |

| nerdy_kid | am i correct in saying that the bs flag in dd is basicly the copying speed? | 14:25 |
| SwedeMike | nerdy_kid: no, it's how much data it copies per time it copies, block-size. | 14:25 |
| rww | nerdy_kid: bs=block size=how much data to copy at a time | 14:25 |
| rww | so if you set it to 1MB, it'll read 1MB from the input file, then write it to the output file | 14:26 |

| abhi_nav | mamous: i think u have not formated /home and /temp with ext3? | 14:32 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3 you mean i was suppose to do that when not docked in? | 14:32 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, yep | 14:33 |
| joe642 | hello | 14:33 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, my memory is not that good | 14:33 |
| joe642 | am tryin to do root passwd recovery on ubuntu 9 | 14:33 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, take care ;) just try and tell me what you did and what you got | 14:33 |
| ikonia | joe642: where is no root password unless you set one | 14:34 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, i undocked, then i tried access to internet without success then | 14:34 |
| mamous | one sec I will give you the exact error | 14:35 |
| joe642 | i edit the /etc/passwd file ... delete the root password hash value - save . When i reboot .. to sudo the passwd is not blank as expected | 14:35 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, i opened a terminal and scrolled through the last commands in ther and repeated the ones you gave me, without success | 14:35 |
| ikonia | joe642: why are you doing this ? the account is locked on ubuntu, if you wanted to set the password you just need to set it | 14:35 |
| joe642 | am i missing sthin? | 14:35 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, now i am ready to succeed | 14:35 |
| fhermeni | Any users of preseed ? | 14:35 |
| sidh | Greetings Gentlemen | 14:35 |
| fhermeni | I have trouble when autoconfiguring the network | 14:36 |
| ikonia | joe642: the passwords are in /etc/shadow not passwd | 14:36 |
| ikonia | joe642: and why are you trying to do this ? | 14:36 |
| joe642 | ikonia: had been using the system. forgot the sudo passwd again | 14:36 |
| ikonia | joe642: ok - so that's "your" password, not the root one | 14:36 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, go ahead | 14:36 |
| ikonia | joe642: resetting the root password won't fix that | 14:36 |
| Pianoman13 | d3 thats it | 14:37 |
| joe642 | ikonia: the sudo , super user passwd needed for installs | 14:37 |
| ikonia | joe642: sudo password is your user password | 14:37 |
| ikonia | joe642: eg: if you are joe624 and do "sudo apt-get update" the password you type is joe642's password | 14:37 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, why did it not let me save the info ? | 14:38 |
| gypsymauro | hi | 14:38 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, you may not have permissions :) | 14:38 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, that screen is still empty, the ipv4 screen | 14:38 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, i am the only owner | 14:38 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, aha! you should fill it! | 14:39 |
| sidh | I would need your advices, I just receive a new laptop (recent chipset) and as i will need a linux distro on it , i'm wondering about ubuntu for its better hardware compatibility. As i would like to use exactly the light apps i need (mutt/fluxbox/elinks and so on) what is better , start from an alternate or start from ubuntu server iso ? | 14:39 |
| gypsymauro | I can install a 32 bit os on a 64 bit machine? or better.. how can I know if my machine supports the 64 bit version of ubuntu? | 14:39 |
| Gangrel | anyone can drive me automounting a HDD? | 14:39 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, remember i cannot save after i fill it | 14:39 |
| llutz | !minimal |sidh: | 14:39 |
| ubottu | sidh:: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 14:39 |

| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, running around in circle, catch 22 | 14:39 |
| sidh | great bot, thanks ubottu | 14:40 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, should i try the other option on that screen: auto addresses only (DHCP) | 14:40 |
| Raphi974 | Hi everyone | 14:40 |
| olskolirc | I need a desktop recorder recordmydesktop isn't in my menu and when I type it, it tell me to use --no-sound and I don't even know where my file went - I want a recorder that take the sound as well with a gui | 14:41 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, then fill in the DNS, Domain, ID | 14:41 |
| djtoto | unzip megaflooder.mrc into your mirc\ directory then type: | 14:41 |
| djtoto | /load -rs megaflooder.mrc | 14:41 |
| djtoto | g./mega | 14:41 |
| djtoto | Loads dialo | 14:41 |
| djtoto | Please do not rip. | 14:42 |
| hikenboot | anyone able to recommend free domain dynamic dns service? | 14:44 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, just keep in mind : the button wont activate until you enter sufficient valid data | 14:44 |
| hikenboot | I have a domain name with register.com but it doesn't support dynamic dns. so i need some kind of redirector | 14:44 |
| AzikaCorp | dyndns | 14:44 |
| llutz | hikenboot: no-ip.com | 14:44 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, ok then that probably means that there was another field that i did not filled in the third screen where number 8 is | 14:45 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, let me redo it all over | 14:45 |
| usuario | olaa | 14:45 |
| PyroPhelia | quick question, i've got a file on my server with nonstandard US characters, how do I delete it? | 14:45 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, if i can find your png file again lol | 14:45 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, it may be on any windows where the button is unclickable | 14:46 |
| PyroPhelia | I can't delete it through ssh because all I get is ???????? and random letters | 14:46 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, it's still at the same url : http://www.filesavr.com/wlanconfig | 14:46 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, i'll be back in a min :) | 14:47 |
| Pianoman13 | d3vic3, imagine that, i found it before you | 14:47 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, lucky ;) | 14:47 |

| ikonia | !away > abhi_nav | 14:49 |
| ubottu | abhi_nav, please see my private message | 14:49 |
| erUSUL | PyroPhelia: tab completion can't help ? | 14:49 |
| PyroPhelia | erUSUL, negative | 14:50 |
| llutz | PyroPhelia: if all fails, use mc | 14:50 |
| abhi_nav | ikonia: i used /away only | 14:50 |
| erUSUL | PyroPhelia: how many files are on the same directory ? | 14:50 |
| ikonia | abhi_nav: it appears to do more than that | 14:51 |
| abhi_nav | how to use /away silently | 14:51 |
| rww | abhi_nav: Which IRC client are you using? | 14:51 |
| llutz | PyroPhelia: rm -- *random-letter* | 14:51 |
| abhi_nav | rww: xchat | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | PyroPhelia: "rm -i *" could be an option (or even with a more restrictive glob pattern) ?? | 14:51 |
| ikonia | abhi_nav: what client are you using | 14:51 |
| abhi_nav | ikonia: rww: xchat | 14:51 |
| PyroPhelia | erUSUL, 2 files in the directory with the nonstandard chars | 14:51 |
| ubyserver | Anyone here use webmin to manage their webserver? | 14:52 |
| erUSUL | !webmin | ubyserver | 14:52 |
| ubottu | ubyserver: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 14:52 |
| ikonia | abhi_nav: join #xchat and ask for help | 14:52 |
| abhi_nav | ikonica: ok | 14:52 |
| rww | abhi_nav: Settings > Preferences > General > uncheck "Announce away messages" | 14:52 |

| ubyserver | I actually installed ebox last night and thought my server broke after reaching the package webserver pr something like that. | 14:52 |
| ikonia | rww: maybe that's worth logging as bug in the default ubuntu install, that should be cleared | 14:52 |
| abhi_nav | rww: done now i try it | 14:53 |
| rww | ikonia: It's not set by default. | 14:53 |

| Gangrel | how can i give read and write access to a mounted hdd? | 14:58 |
| erUSUL | Gangrel: what filesystem ? | 14:58 |
| ikonia | Gangrel: if it's mounted read-only you have to re-mount it, if it's just permissions, use chmod and chown to change the permissions/owner | 14:59 |
| mamous | one or more of the mounts listed in etc fstab cannot yet be mounted | 14:59 |
| Gangrel | erUSUL, ext4 | 14:59 |
| plouffe | Is there a way to run a c# (aspx) project someone sent me that was made in Visual Studio on Ubuntu | 14:59 |
| erUSUL | !addingfs | Gangrel | 14:59 |
| ubottu | Gangrel: If you are adding space to your Ubuntu installation mounting a newly created unix filesystem (ext3, xfs, jfs, etc) you can not set permissions (read, write, etc) filesystem-wide like you do when mounting filesystems that do not support unix permissions (vfat, ntfs, hfs, etc). See !permissions and !fstab | 14:59 |
| ikonia | mamous: walk though each one manually and see which one comaplains | 14:59 |
| Gangrel | !paste | 15:00 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 15:00 |
| mamous | it is the same error | 15:00 |
| Pici | plouffe: you *might* be able to import it into monodevelop, but I'm not if that will work. At least that'll give a direction to do some research in. | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | plouffe: you can try to run it in mono. i dunno what the level of compatibility there is. check the mono website. should be some tools to help port that things | 15:00 |
| ikonia | mamous: which file system/mount is it complaining about | 15:00 |
| Gangrel | ikonia, take a look here http://paste.ubuntu.com/377649/ | 15:01 |
| plouffe | thanks Pici, erUSUL I search in synaptic | 15:01 |
| ikonia | Gangrel: what about that ? | 15:01 |
| jackbrown | hello there | 15:01 |
| jackbrown | anybody available to help me ? | 15:01 |
| ikonia | jackbrown: if you ask a question, we'll all try | 15:01 |

| Gangrel | ikonia, this is what i used to mount it .. how do i add permisions? | 15:02 |

| jackbrown | thanks, i have trouble to install TOR on my UBUNTU 9.10 | 15:02 |
| erUSUL | plouffe: http://www.mono-project.com/ASP.NET | 15:02 |
| ikonia | Gangrel: well, it appears to be mounted ok, so you need to either make it writable for your user, or make your use the owner | 15:02 |
| abhi_nav | jackbrown: what is TOR? | 15:02 |
| jackbrown | is anyone available to help me | 15:02 |
| abhi_nav | jackbrown: i want to know | 15:02 |

| rww | jackbrown: Can you be more specific as to what's not working, please? | 15:03 |
| ikonia | !toar | jackbrown | 15:03 |
| Gangrel | ikonia, what do i add there to make it read and write for the user? | 15:03 |
| ikonia | !tor | jackbrown | 15:03 |
| ubottu | jackbrown: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 15:03 |
| jackbrown | rww from the beginning | 15:03 |
| rww | ikonia: !tor is useless for actually setting up TOR :( | 15:04 |
| ikonia | rww: just noticed that ! | 15:04 |
| Gangrel | !fstab | 15:04 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 15:04 |
| ikonia | Gangrel: look at the chmod and chown command's | 15:04 |
| llutz | jackbrown: www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.it | 15:04 |
| Gangrel | !chmod | 15:04 |
| ubottu | An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 15:04 |
| rww | jackbrown: Alright, for a start, you should be following Option 2 on http://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | 15:04 |
| ikonia | Gangrel: are you actually reading the document that trigger keeps giving you | 15:04 |
| jackbrown | http://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | 15:05 |
| jackbrown | rww i'm on it | 15:05 |
| mamous | can I send a file over here | 15:05 |
| Gangrel | ikonia, i am but cannot really understand it :S | 15:05 |
| mamous | so I can give you the /etc/fstab/ | 15:05 |
| llutz | !paste | mamous use this | 15:05 |
| ubottu | mamous use this: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 15:05 |
| mamous | and you all see the error | 15:05 |
| erUSUL | Gangrel: quick'n'dirty way is to just « chown -R $USER:$USER /mount/point/ » . More clean aproach is to make folders inside the parition and give the apropiate permissions to those folders (more finegrained) | 15:05 |
| rww | ubottu: pm | jackbrown | 15:06 |
| ubottu | jackbrown: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 15:06 |
| ikonia | Gangrel: ok, what don't you understand ? | 15:06 |
| jackbrown | ok sorry | 15:06 |
| allo_946 | Thanks! Gangrel | 15:06 |

| ikonia | mamous: just tell us, you don't need to give us a screen shot | 15:07 |
| Gangrel | ikonia, i cannot understand what to add in fstab so my mount takes read and write access | 15:07 |

| Gangrel | allo_946, ermm for what? | 15:07 |

| hamnegga | Didrik: You should try the linux mint iso, it comes with mounting and forcemounting usually setup out-of-the-box, so you probably won't have to configure anything, nautilus just usually works. | 15:28 |

| rww | hamnegga: It's generally not possible, since IM works user <-> server <-> user, not directly from user to user. AIM (for example) has direct connection for sending files, and you could use netstat or wireshark to trace that. | 15:32 |

| marenostrum | Hello. Ubuntu 9.04 here. I had Icecat web browser installed. Today I tried to make a general update. Synaptic gave the error: «W: Ignoring Provides line with DepCompareOp for package icecat». I completeley uninstalled Icecat but Synaptic still gives the same error. I checked the file /var/lib/dpkg/status for Icecat section, and it just has this: «Package: icecat Status: purge ok not-installed Priority: optional Section: web». So my questions: W | 16:19 |
| marenostrum | here does synaptic get this info? ShouldI «clean» Synaptic by some ways other than refreshing? In short, how can I solve the problem? | 16:19 |

| nfrs | can anyone help trace the kdm start problem in karmic? it stopped working when I was trying to fix something else. I reverted everything I did, but that didn't help. the problem is: 1) kdm doesn't run on startup; 2) "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start" doesn't work either | 16:26 |

| Real_Ubot | rumpsy: 9.10. I think something happened at the last update of the system. Because it has worked since 9.10 was released and the problem turned up when I started my computer today. | 16:32 |

| rumpsy | Real_Ubot: are you using restricted drivers? may be the cause | 16:33 |
| Real_Ubot | rumpsy: I have been using 9.10 for months so something must have happened since last upgrade or sine last time I used the computer but I haven't manually changed anything that has to do with the resolution. | 16:33 |

| neptune_ | DasEi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/377735/ | 17:15 |
| DasEi | Maletor: scp is a good way | 17:15 |
| histo | Maletor: are you trying to share the files to the outside world or just your network? | 17:15 |
| anothernick | guntbert, running gksu, typing firefox as program to run and user useriwanttorunas | 17:15 |
| Maletor | histo: someone from outside the lan will be needing access into this | 17:15 |
| guntbert | anothernick: what does the error say? | 17:15 |
| histo | Maletor: well you can ftp are you sure member:maletor is your username? | 17:15 |
| Maletor | DasEi: should i create another user? and make it /bin/nologin | 17:15 |
| anothernick | guntbert, No protocol specified | Error: cannot open display: :0.0 | 17:16 |
| Maletor | histo: no it's just maletor, my irc client did that when i copy pasted | 17:16 |
| histo | Maletor: path maybe /home/maletor ? | 17:16 |
| histo | Maletor: ahh | 17:16 |
| Maletor | So SCP works better for this situation or still ftp? | 17:16 |
| Maletor | the problem with scp is that i would have to give him my password = not good | 17:16 |
| histo | Maletor: I would create a symlink to share in your home that inclucdes videos and music in that. Then add the appropriate access to the share symlink rather than your home folder | 17:17 |
| DasEi | Maletor: yes, can create a restricted user for that and use it's information for the ssh-authenification | 17:17 |
| frankS2 | :P | 17:17 |
| so0ky | hello once again. I'm trying to set up FTP on my server. I am able to establish a basic connection, however when I put in my credentials the server won't take it (even though there is only one account on the server). What am I doing wrong? | 17:17 |
| neptune_ | DasEi: have you see my output? | 17:17 |
| DasEi | neptune_: yes | 17:17 |
| histo | Maletor: There are tons of different ways to do it. either should work. | 17:17 |
| Maletor | histo: right i tried creating sym links in /srv/ftp which is where my ftp user points to but when i tested it it can't cd to /home/maletor | 17:17 |
| guntbert | anothernick: ahh, that version (gksu alone by itself) is new to me - I always use gksudo -u user firefox - but back to your problem: did you say you sshed into the machine? | 17:17 |
| histo | Maletor: yeah you shouldn't be able to because you are in the symlink | 17:18 |
| histo | Maletor: /home/maletor is root then home then maletor | 17:18 |
| === home is now known as wielkibaner | ||
| histo | Maletor: the leading / | 17:18 |
| Maletor | histo: understood | 17:18 |
| anothernick | guntbert, oh you can use -u user :$ | 17:18 |
| neptune_ | so what should i do? | 17:18 |
| Maletor | so what are you proposing here: "Maletor: I would create a symlink to share in your home that inclucdes videos and music in that. Then add the appropriate access to the share symlink rather than your home folder"] | 17:18 |
| histo | Maletor: the way you are doing it is fine but i'm having trouble understanding it exactly. | 17:19 |
| Maletor | histo: it doesn't work the way i'm doing it | 17:19 |
| histo | Maletor: you created /srv/ftp with symlinks to videos and music in there? | 17:19 |
| Maletor | histo: yes | 17:19 |
| histo | Maletor: okay can they get in videos and music? | 17:19 |
| Maletor | histo: but ftp can't change directory to /home/maletor/Music which is where the sym link points to | 17:19 |
| guntbert | anothernick: but that doesn't solve your problem - did you say you are in a ssh session? | 17:20 |
| Maletor | histo: ftp:x:119:126:ftp daemon,,,:/srv/ftp:/bin/false | 17:20 |
| histo | Maletor: your need to change permissions on vidoes and music so they ftp user can see them I believe. | 17:20 |
| Maletor | drwxr-xr-x 300 maletor maletor 20480 2010-02-15 01:09 Music | 17:21 |
| histo | Maletor: it seems like a permissions problem to me. But perhaps someone else has a different opinion? | 17:21 |
| anothernick | guntbert, no, I usually have to use ssh, connecting to the same machine through ssh to the user I want to run, ssh with the option -Y, to allow viewing X | 17:21 |
| Maletor | vsftpd has it locked to the home directory histo | 17:21 |
| Maletor | so i can't leave /srv/ftp | 17:21 |
| histo | Maletor: yeah i gotcha let me check something | 17:21 |
| Maletor | which is what i want because i don't want the user roaming /home/maletor/Documents histo | 17:22 |
| guntbert | anothernick: that option is -X (not -Y) | 17:22 |
| neptune_ | DasEi: r u there | 17:22 |
| anothernick | guntbert, I use -Y and it works.. ;o | 17:22 |
| llutz | guntbert: -Y trusted X-frows | 17:22 |
| llutz | forwd | 17:22 |
| DasEi | neptune_: y, libglu-dev ? | 17:22 |
| anothernick | guntbert, -x Disables X11 forwarding. - -Y Enables trusted X11 forwarding. Trusted X11 forwardings are not subjected to the X11 SECURITY extension controls. | 17:22 |
| === Gateway is now known as Guest92327 | ||

| Maletor | histo: exactly | 17:23 |

| neptune_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/377740/ | 17:24 |
| Maletor | histo: how do i do that? | 17:24 |
| histo | mount --bind /srv/ftp/music /home/maletor/music | 17:24 |

| macman_ | hi all question .. i just dmped a movie with -dumpstream -dumpfile file.mpg .. the file.mpg is about 6.0gb .. there anway to get it to about 4.0gb or would i need another app for this ? | 17:25 |
| Maletor | histo: that's a great idea much better than cp | 17:25 |
| DasEi | Maletor: another idea is to mirror the dirs to another location, like the home of a new user | 17:25 |
| Maletor | DasEi: the home of my new user (ftp) is /srv/ftp | 17:26 |
| histo | DasEi: thats essentially what mount --bind is doing the folder is just mounted in multiple locations | 17:26 |
| guntbert | anothernick: I must admit that the whole idea is rather strange to me - so no help/solution from me - sorry | 17:26 |
| neptune_ | DasEi: ? | 17:26 |
| histo | Maletor: its actually mount --bind olddir newdir acording to the mount man | 17:26 |
| neptune_ | .. | 17:26 |
| DasEi | neptune_: same as before, apt's error ? | 17:27 |
| llutz | anothernick: just an idea: try using "sux" instead of "su" | 17:27 |
| DasEi | neptune_: sudo apt-get install libglu-dev , pastebin it | 17:27 |
| histo | Maletor: fstab would be /olddir /newdir none bind | 17:27 |
| anothernick | guntbert, hehe its ok, thanks for trying anyway =) | 17:27 |

| so0ky | i have already read the how to | 17:36 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: is that alive stream ? | 17:36 |

| magn3ts | What commands would I issue to make my hostname "blah" and my FQD hostname "blah.foo.com" ? | 17:36 |
| halbesbit | #ubuntu.de | 17:36 |
| semitones | !ati | dieter__ , see if this helps | 17:36 |
| ubottu | dieter__ , see if this helps: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 17:36 |
| guntbert | !hostname | magn3ts | 17:36 |
| ubottu | magn3ts: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 17:36 |
| ikonia | magn3ts: /etc/hostname is your hostname file youru FQD is set by dns, not the box | 17:36 |
| Homely_Girl | DasEi: I have no idea! I have a nokia 'n it let me record a sound file 'n I blue toothed it onto my pc! | 17:36 |
| ikonia | magn3ts: make sure you also update /etc/hosts | 17:36 |

| karnivore | hi, does anyone know how to make a script run with sudo rights (probably using gksudo) without requiring a password input. im fine to have my password in plaintext in the script and i understand the security implications of this | 17:37 |
| dieter__ | Be right back, I will try and see if I can install it after this guide. | 17:37 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: ic , so a sound file, try with vlc first | 17:37 |
| dieter__ | Thank you so much guys! | 17:37 |
| cbx | Why doesn't Ctrl+v work in the terminal? | 17:37 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: sudo apt-get install vlc | 17:37 |
| Homely_Girl | DasEi: U read my mind Thanks | 17:37 |
| magn3ts | ikonia, I'm in an environment that is isolated from the internet and I need to do some strange testing | 17:37 |
| Roasted | Has anybody used Ubuntu cloud? I'm considering on setting up a test environment and was curious if users had any positive or negative experiences using cloud. | 17:38 |
| nastas | ikonia: wow! fast kick for nothing | 17:38 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: vlc YourFileName.amr | 17:38 |
| ikonia | magn3ts: then you need to either change your hostname to host.domain.com or setup dns | 17:38 |
| histo | cbx: shift+insert | 17:38 |
| cbx | histo, I know that one :) | 17:38 |
| Tresmius | Is there a quick way to change from gnome to kde? | 17:38 |
| cbx | but I'm so used to ctrl v it takes a bit of thought to get to shift ins | 17:38 |
| magn3ts | ikonia, yeah, I got the FQD set through /etc/hosts. thanks | 17:38 |
| bastid_raZor | !purekde | Tresmius | 17:38 |
| ubottu | Tresmius: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 17:38 |
| llutz | Tresmius: install kubuntu-desktop and select session at loging | 17:39 |
| DasEi | neptune_: want to force the installation ? what do you need it for ? which app ? | 17:39 |
| dieter__ | Doesn't help. | 17:39 |
| histo | cbx:yeah i'm sure it can be changed | 17:39 |
| Homely_Girl | DasEi: Thanks it's very busy installing stuff! ;) | 17:39 |
| dieter__ | Can someone else please point me in how to install the video driver of a dell inspiron 1525/ | 17:39 |
| Homely_Girl | DasEi: wot does vlc stand for? | 17:39 |
| histo | cbx: shift+ctrl+V should paste | 17:40 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: video-lan-codec I think, see : | 17:40 |
| DasEi | !vlc | 17:40 |

| llutz | Homely_Girl: videolanclient | 17:40 |
| karnivore | hi, does anyone know how to make a script run with sudo rights (probably using gksudo) without requiring a password input. im fine to have my password in plaintext in the script and i understand the security implications of this | 17:40 |
| histo | Pirate_Hunter: what application? | 17:40 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: it's a player apart from others in that way, it brings a bunch of own codecs, even exotic ones | 17:40 |
| ikonia | karnivore: use visudo to setup a rule for the specific command to not need password | 17:41 |
| Pirate_Hunter | histo, yesterday it was oobase which is now working but right now it is gwibber | 17:41 |
| DasEi | client it was, thanks llutz | 17:41 |
| ikonia | karnivore: you'll need to do a little research on sudo | 17:41 |
| llutz | Homely_Girl: check videolan.org | 17:41 |
| histo | Pirate_Hunter: and if you restart it works? | 17:41 |
| Homely_Girl | DasEi: U my hero of the day! :) Will it let me save it into somming windoze friendly? | 17:41 |
| Pici | karnivore: Or if it needs to run on a schedule, its better to put it in root's crontab via sudo crontab -e | 17:41 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: first check if you can play it | 17:42 |
| histo | karnivore: or use visudo so the script doesn't need the password | 17:42 |
| Pirate_Hunter | histo, yes but i shouldn't have to do so | 17:42 |
| dieter__ | Please? | 17:42 |
| karnivore | visudo eh? awesome thanks! | 17:42 |
| dieter__ | CAn someone help? | 17:42 |
| histo | Pirate_Hunter: do you get an error what do you mean by it doens't work? | 17:42 |
| Homely_Girl | DasEi: will do, ta. | 17:43 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: vlc itself doesn't convert, but might give more usefull info about filetype | 17:43 |
| histo | dieter__: what was wrong witht he guide? | 17:43 |
| Pirate_Hunter | histo, for gwibber there are plenty of errors, one sec | 17:43 |
| dieter__ | Well I can't seem to find what I need... | 17:44 |
| histo | dieter__: are you sure you need a driver? | 17:44 |
| DasEi | Homely_Girl: there are good converters, if not, can use audacity to re-record it and save as wav or other win-compatible, most can b converted (if playable at all) | 17:44 |
| dieter__ | I don't really have time to read all that guide. | 17:44 |
| dieter__ | I really need a simple guide to take me trough the steps in installing my ati driver on my dell inspiron 1525. | 17:44 |
| histo | dieter__: okay why do you think a driver is needed most are loaded by default. Especially if its not showing in hardware manager | 17:44 |
| llutz | Homely_Girl: vlc can convert media-formats too, read documentation about which and how | 17:44 |
| Homely_Girl | DasEi: woosh!! But thanks...may email it to a geek friend 'n let him sort it! Thanks gonna see if it works now. :) | 17:44 |
| histo | dieter__: what type of video card is it model etc... | 17:45 |
| ikonia | dieter__: that guide is simple, also be aware of the hardware drivers application | 17:45 |
| DasEi | dieter__: which card ? | 17:45 |

| nastas | dieter__: this is intel | 17:46 |
| dieter__ | And why is a ati driver installed then? | 17:46 |
| histo | dieter__: it looks like intel to me. | 17:46 |
| ikonia | dieter__: why are you using an ati driver ? where does it say you're using an ati driver ? | 17:46 |
| dieter__ | And when I try to run it, it says it's needing some packets. | 17:46 |
| histo | dieter__: intel 965 | 17:46 |
| dieter__ | So yes.. | 17:46 |
| dieter__ | I see now, thanks. | 17:46 |
| ubyserver | Hey Everyone! Hope you are all well. | 17:46 |

| ubyserver | Question: What do I install first, LAMP or ebox-all-packages? | 17:47 |
| dieter__ | Ok, I see now..so no more furthure instalations needed yes? | 17:47 |
| DasEi | dieter__: remove the ati, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, restart x | 17:47 |
| ikonia | ubyserver: doesn't matter | 17:47 |
| nastas | dieter__: where did you see that you have ati driver installed? | 17:47 |
| histo | dieter__: yes unless you have any obscure hardware | 17:47 |
| rabbi1 | command to remove LAMP? | 17:47 |
| histo | dieter__: linux is not like windows | 17:47 |
| ubyserver | Thank you ikonia | 17:47 |
| dieter__ | Well you see it's not my machine and the person who owns it tought it's a ati graphic card. | 17:48 |
| letalis | i need to make a windows xp usb stick installer from within linux, any suggestions on locating a howto to do it? | 17:48 |
| dieter__ | But wait a second.. | 17:48 |
| fosco__ | letalis, search for unetbootin | 17:48 |
| dieter__ | When I try to enable the effects it says it can not find the driver. | 17:48 |
| DasEi | letalis: use unetbootin | 17:48 |
| letalis | itll work on a windows xp iso image? | 17:48 |
| DasEi | letalis: y | 17:49 |
| histo | dieter__: what version of ubuntu? | 17:49 |
| letalis | okay ill try that out then, thanks :) | 17:49 |

| === rusty is now known as Guest81016 | ||
| iceroot | Lefantomedurezo: #ubuntu+1 | 17:50 |
| Lefantomedurezo | because ati's driver freez since the 9.12 | 17:50 |
| karnivore | ikonia, i dont understand: visudo seems to just let me allow sudo in general not to need a password. i only want this for one specific script. do i put "%(path to script) ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL" ? | 17:50 |
| Lefantomedurezo | on 9.04, and 9.10 | 17:50 |
| Lefantomedurezo | and on others distrib | 17:50 |
| histo | dieter__: what is the error when you try to enable effects? | 17:50 |
| dieter__ | JUst a second to verify | 17:50 |
| ikonia | karnivore: you need to set a rule for just that one command, the default is for all commands, so you need to add an additional rule | 17:50 |
| histo | dieter__: also does glxinfo | grep render in terminal show that direct rendering is enabled? | 17:51 |
| llutz | karnivore: user ALL=NOPASSWD: /path/to/script | 17:51 |
| histo | ikonia: couldn't he jsut tell it to run the script as root | 17:51 |
| eko | hi all | 17:51 |
| dieter__ | Well you see when I try to enable the effects first he's looking for a driver. | 17:51 |
| === Guest92327 is now known as Gateway` | ||
| ikonia | histo: sure, that was pici's suggestion using cron | 17:51 |
| dieter__ | Then it says that it can not activate the effects and that's all | 17:51 |
| DasEi | dieter__: is the box you're talking about the same you now writing here ? | 17:52 |
| ikonia | histo: I missed that he wanted to run it with cron in the first post | 17:52 |
| dieter__ | YEs | 17:52 |
| llutz | karnivore: list needs to cover all commands invoked by "script" | 17:52 |
| histo | dieter__: try the command i gave you in terminal | 17:52 |
| dieter__ | OK just a second..by the way, thanks so much. | 17:52 |
| karnivore | llutz, ah, thanks! so the first ALL is the users and the last ALL refers to commands/scripts etc | 17:52 |
| DasEi | dieter__: so I doubt you restarted x then, did you reconfigure ? | 17:52 |

| histo | dieter__: okay look at what DasEi says | 17:54 |
| dieter__ | That's what I get after running your command. | 17:54 |
| karnivore | llutz, so i need to put one in there for each command that is used? would it be easier if i put the script in /usr/local/bin and pointed the visudo rule to that or would i still need to make the rule for the individual commands within the script that require sudo rights? | 17:54 |

| wacek | blakkheim, is nVidia any better in terms of freedom? | 18:09 |
| dieter__ | Well I'll state this another time so everyone can understand | 18:09 |
| Lachance | joolie: You want to removethe corrupt file(s)? | 18:10 |
| dieter__ | It seems like I was wrong, it has an intel card so no need to install ati drivers on it.. | 18:10 |
| dieter__ | But as DAesi said I need to remove the ati drivers. | 18:10 |
| DasEi | dieter__: so removed the ati-xorg now ? | 18:10 |
| semitones | dieter__, ah, I see | 18:10 |
| jooiiee | Lachance, i have it on swedish so il transelate it for you. | 18:10 |
| dieter__ | But as it was installed I need to uninstall the driver.. | 18:10 |
| Phurl | DasEi, Ubuntu 9.04 \n \l running update-manager -d that killed his system | 18:10 |
| Lachance | Thanks joolie | 18:10 |
| ewook | hrm anyone up for a dd-question? | 18:10 |

| llutz | wacek: all the same proprietary crap | 18:10 |
| wacek | llutz, yeah | 18:11 |

| dabaR | Pirate_Hunter: mine starts. | 18:11 |
| DasEi | dieter__: the xorg-ati driver you mentioned before | 18:11 |
| semitones | DasEi, I'm not sure | 18:11 |
| dabaR | Pirate_Hunter: can you aptitude search gwibber in a terminal, and see whether its line starts with i? | 18:11 |
| * semitones searches synaptic for ati | 18:11 | |
| Trek | is there a command that will let me see what packages a specified package depends on? | 18:11 |

| llutz | Trek: apt-cache depends package | 18:12 |
| dabaR | Trek: apt-cache show package | 18:12 |
| semitones | dieter__, you don't need to remove any -- the system will automatically offer to remove then when they aren't in use | 18:12 |
| Pirate_Hunter | dabaR, huh...? what line starts with it? | 18:12 |
| DasEi | Trek: apt-cache depends | 18:12 |
| Trek | thanks llutz dabaR DasEi | 18:12 |
| dieter__ | Well semitones it hasn't said nothing... | 18:12 |

| carbm2 | konr, that would have been one of my guesses... but I'm not sure how to recreate it. try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure firefox" | 19:08 |
| rob_p | dieter__: Then simply do, "./GoogleEarthLinux.bin" and press enter. | 19:08 |

| vinse | especially when it's only 6 months old | 19:14 |

| Pianoman13 | carbm2, i tried to ping using the system, admin, network window but got no response | 19:20 |
| Pici | Genscher: Best to ask packaging questions in #ubuntu-motu | 19:20 |
| Genscher | Pici, thanks, will do | 19:20 |
| dieter__ | Ohh so I need to get it from Vuze.com? | 19:20 |
| Trek | dieter__ if they have a .deb installer then try using it | 19:20 |
| semitones | dieter__, you'd probably to best to stick with easy to install options | 19:20 |
| dieter__ | it's a bz2.. | 19:21 |
| dieter__ | FIle | 19:21 |
| Sa[i]nT | vuze on ubuntu isn't the cool awesome version it is on windows. Be warned. | 19:21 |
| dieter__ | How do you install a bz2? | 19:21 |
| Sa[i]nT | Just get transmission and save space. | 19:21 |
| semitones | dieter__, I agree with Sa[i]nT , try transmission | 19:21 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, the ip address shown in peripheral seems wrong to me | 19:21 |
| semitones | and if you still want Vuze, get it then | 19:22 |
| dieter__ | I know but how can I install this bz2? | 19:22 |
| Sa[i]nT | It's probably the source. | 19:22 |
| semitones | dieter__, there should be a readme inside it. bz2 is a compressed file, similar to .zip or .rar | 19:22 |
| nmvictor | dieter__: use apt or just search in packages.ubuntu.com for the .deb | 19:23 |

| Pianoman13 | do i need to install the ndiswrapper first? | 19:35 |
| iceroot | SKULL: that you can do with samba but no AD | 19:35 |
| SKULL | and i want make windows XP joint to that Linux Domain | 19:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | towmat, SAMBA "might" still be the easiest, NFS is the linux/unix equivalent (but not a point-n-click friendly) | 19:36 |
| iceroot | SKULL: but there is a ad-connector, so you can use ldap on linuxsite and ad for the windows-clients | 19:36 |
| iceroot | !samba | SKULL | 19:36 |

| carbm2 | Pianoman13, your wireless works when docked? | 19:50 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, i think so but i think there is a lso a wire that goes into my docking station | 19:50 |
| === The is now known as Guest24966 | ||
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, yes thre is a wire in the back | 19:51 |
| iceroot | ehlim: maybe #blender ? | 19:51 |
| jrib | ehlim: yes, but if it's about blender use and not installing blender in ubuntu, you should probably ask in #blender | 19:51 |
| carbm2 | Pianoman13, is your laptop on the docking station right now? | 19:51 |
| ehlim | yeah , however it seems like a hard question for them too :) | 19:51 |

| SirLoseALot | Hey everyone. Small problem here. I just started a Gparted resize/move operation. Turns out it is going to take 8 hours. It is currently in "read" mode. If I pressed cancel, would that mess up the partition being moved, or would Gparted just restore the initial state? | 19:54 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, what is the pic for? i do not have that icon | 19:54 |
| carbm2 | Pianoman13, You see the little icon with the antenea and the dots after it. Thats the Network Manager. When you click it should show you your wireless so you can enter your encryption keys. | 19:55 |
| Matson | ZykoticK9: thanks | 19:55 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, can i download the icon lol | 19:55 |

| towmat | hi all - need help partitioning for a fresh install - anyone up for a couple questions? | 20:01 |
| Trek | towmat, what do you need to know? | 20:02 |
| towmat | like... swap drive in front or in back? | 20:02 |
| Zetsubou | arr | 20:02 |
| carbm1 | Pianoman13: Sorry, on my LinuxMint its different... I'm not sure I can explain if its not there. | 20:02 |
| towmat | right now i have swap as primary, root and home as logical - that good or bad? | 20:02 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm1, been looking all around on my system to add this icon but cannot find anything | 20:03 |

| IpSe_DiXiT | hi | 20:06 |
| lwizardl | erUSUL, thanks checking that one out now | 20:06 |
| guntbert | !ask | Zetsubou its always so | 20:07 |
| ubottu | Zetsubou its always so: 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. :-) | 20:07 |
| Trek | towmat, I use 9.04, so I use ext3, and I strongly recommend sticking root as a primary partition... | 20:07 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | i just connected via an s-video cable my pc to my pc, nvidia card and nvidia settings appear to be good, but i dont see the second x-screen, anyone? thanks | 20:07 |
| Zetsubou | yeah yeah :D | 20:07 |
| towmat | Trek: ok, so root, swap then home? | 20:07 |
| towmat | or root home swap? | 20:07 |
| towmat | or does it matter? lol | 20:07 |
| Zetsubou | well this might not be comletely the right channel, but i close enough imo | 20:07 |
| Trek | but as for specifics such as filesystem and what not, use what you will, towmat | 20:07 |
| phocus | IpSe_DiXiT: try usnig sudo nvidia-settings | 20:07 |
| MILEY | HOLAAAA | 20:08 |
| Zetsubou | so i lost my sound on #! crunchbang, yesterday it worked, today its not working anymore. | 20:08 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | phocus: thatz what i did, and it does appear on the nvidia settings, screen 0 and screen 1, but nothing appears on the tv, how can i do? | 20:08 |
| DasEi | Trek: why should root be primary ? | 20:08 |
| Zetsubou | didnt find anything specific | 20:08 |
| phocus | you sure the tv is set to the svideo input? | 20:08 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm1, i found an interesting page and will try it http://www.blogcatalog.com/blog/en-vicky-ridwana/ad37578155309de26494cf44cd57084a | 20:08 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | phocus: yes, i just connected it | 20:09 |
| Trek | DasEi, thats my style, and also i've had interesting issues on ubu where something went weird and killed the extended partition where root and home was | 20:09 |

| Lazz | hi all, I have some trouble with my wifi... somebody willing to help me? =) | 20:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | allowoverride, if you are using Gnome then most likely you are using Pulse - to check from terminal "ps aux | grep pulse" may show one or more entries for the daemon. ALSA is used for the more low level sound control, under Pulse (so you're using that too). OSS is another story... | 20:20 |

| SKULL | i have lag on my keyboard | 20:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | allowoverride, if you wanted to change the default see http://paste.ubuntu.com/377881/ - it outlines switching default from Pulse to ALSA but you should be able to "customize to taste" | 20:21 |
| jramsey | anyone know anything about twisted web apps? | 20:21 |

| Pianoman13 | carbm1, wait i have to translate | 20:22 |
| carbm2 | Pianoman13, np. | 20:22 |
| jramsey | ok i'll try this way; anyone know anything about python web apps under ubuntu and single sign-on authentication? if not, is there another channel? | 20:23 |
| Lazz | I can't connect to a vista machine using WICD, no network expert present? | 20:24 |
| LordVorp | jramsey: sounds like a python question, unless the specific app in question has a support group | 20:24 |

| LordVorp | Lazz: WICD? | 20:24 |
| DasEi | gerzel: yes, can | 20:25 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, i cannot find it what does it look like in ubuntu 9.10? | 20:25 |
| jramsey | LordVorp, yeah i think it's more like a web dev. question with authentication, but since it runs in ubuntu i thought i'd try here. google's authentication app center won't help because they force the use of their own google account credentials | 20:25 |
| ordicollege | yo | 20:25 |

| ubottu | ordicollege: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 20:25 |
| LordVorp | jramsey: DEFINITELY sounds like a python issue, since all that auth stuff will be python lib based. | 20:25 |
| chico | ola | 20:25 |
| ordicollege | the chise | 20:26 |
| jramsey | LordVorp, i will look into kerberos thanks | 20:26 |
| Pianoman13 | carb got it | 20:26 |
| DasEi | gerzel : install just a minimal system (expert install), then afterwards (from that sys) install xdm and xubuntu-desktop | 20:26 |
| carbm2 | Pianoman13, on your top panel right click in an open area. Select "Add to Panel"... then find Notification Area. | 20:26 |
| Kohar | Is linux have program like CLTest for windows? it's for monitors to check and edit curves (rgb) | 20:26 |
| gerzel | Myrtti: Its called mini.iso ah kk | 20:26 |
| carbm2 | Pianoman13, now do you see the network manager??? | 20:26 |
| LordVorp | jramsey: KRB5? are you using negotiate-auth/SPNEGO (web) or straight kerberos? | 20:26 |
| Nilbus | what's the good forum to write in about a problem related to a wifi driver that I solved? | 20:26 |
| Nilbus | the best forum* | 20:26 |
| Myrtti | gerzel: install xubuntu-desktop | 20:26 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, i guess so!!! | 20:27 |
| LordVorp | Nilbus: kernel mailing lists where people are actually working on said driver? | 20:27 |
| carbm2 | Pianoman13, now undock and click on the little antenea with the dots... should now show your wireless. | 20:27 |
| LordVorp | gerzel: followed by remove ubuntu-desktop | 20:27 |
| Myrtti | gerzel: it doesn't come with any de's by default | 20:27 |
| DasEi | Nilbus: ubuntuforums.org | 20:27 |
| Lazz | I also tried connecting via terminal, but no luck :/ | 20:27 |
| Pianoman13 | carb it has a weird name in french Ù: interface state KNemo | 20:27 |
| jramsey | LordVorp, i know zip about it so i can't even answer your question; i know google oauth won't work because of google wanting to own the world ; do you have a suggestion as to which kerberos way to go? | 20:27 |
| gerzel | kk | 20:27 |
| LordVorp | jramsey: are you trying to set up an auth framework or integrate into something already set up? | 20:28 |
| DasEi | Nilbus: also if you got a new driver, consider a ppa on launchpad | 20:28 |
| Pianoman13 | carbm2, sorry no little antenna, just 2 little computers | 20:28 |
| LordVorp | jramsey: as in, are you mentioning kerberos because it's cool, or because it's already something your'e dealing with and this one app is having issues? | 20:29 |
| waltm | I'm trying to boot from livecd of 9.10 to recover files from a botched upgrade. It wants me to log in with a user name and pass but I've never seen this from livecd before. It isn't accepting the user/pass from the account that was on the hard drive either. any suggestions? | 20:29 |
| carbm2 | Pianoman13, as long as you are on the dock you will have the two computers.... you'll have to unhook to see them. | 20:29 |
| jramsey | LordVorp, i was trying to integrate into google but bailed after i saw the restrictions; all i need is a way to have disparate python apps use the same authentication, and they all run under twisted. i mentioned it because it came up as an alternative for single sign-on authentication for web apps | 20:30 |

| MK13 | what is the grub boot entry for booting the xubuntu iso, where the iso path is: hd(1,1)/iso/xubuntu.iso ? | 21:17 |
| ikonia | aarce: so it's owned by root - that's why it's not going to work | 21:17 |
| ikonia | aarce: unless you're root | 21:17 |
| erUSUL | oldtopman: but you first have to make usre the midi interface is working ... | 21:17 |
| Pianoman13 | i cannot connect to my wireless network on my laptop can someone take a few moments to look at the problem | 21:17 |
| aarce | ikonia: If anyone else owns it, it denies login | 21:17 |
| gregre | jrib, im a noob and dont know what you mean | 21:17 |
| ikonia | aarce: that's just your ftp setup being wrong | 21:17 |
| jrib | gregre: I don't know what to tell you then. | 21:17 |
| ikonia | aarce: in reality root should not be allowed to login | 21:17 |
| erUSUL | sulle: you should not mix repositories entries. look for a repositorie for your ubuntu version | 21:17 |
| Jordan_U | MK13, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1288604 | 21:17 |

| Jordan_U | MK13, np | 21:18 |
| bonifacio | hola | 21:18 |
| ikonia | aarce: well first of all, I'm worried how you got root to login as root has no password and root is also disabled in the ftp user file | 21:18 |
| oldtopman | erUSUL why do i need midi working.... I can play .mid files | 21:18 |
| aarce | ikonia: root's not allowed login. I log in as myself and the sudo -s | 21:18 |
| sulle | erUSUL, should i post the deb-src here? | 21:18 |
| erUSUL | oldtopman: i mean the specific usb midi interface | 21:19 |

| judget | I do not hgave the mixer in my karmik is there something I forgot to install? | 21:19 |
| aarce | ikonia: also, this is sftp/scp, not ftp | 21:19 |
| ikonia | aarce: sudo has nothing to do with your ftp login | 21:19 |
| DasEi | oldtopman: the main work is to get the pc playing the sound, recording is easy afterwards, also audacity directly grabs from the soundcard | 21:19 |
| firevai | hi everyone.. anyone anygood with soundcard setup? | 21:19 |
| oldtopman | ah... | 21:19 |
| ikonia | aarce: you can't do sudo from an ftp shell | 21:19 |
| aarce | ikonia: not in an ftp shell | 21:19 |
| erUSUL | sulle: you can not use hardy sources in jaunty. search for a repo with the same things for jaunty | 21:19 |
| ikonia | aarce: then you're not ftp'ing to something | 21:19 |
| judget | hi fireavi are u having fun with sound in Karmic? | 21:19 |

| Pianoman13 | i cannot connect to my wireless network on my laptop when not docked can someone take a few moments to look at the problem | 21:20 |
| allowoverride | Pianoman13: here is what you do. first, plug in an eth cable to your laptop port, test for internet. then, goto system, hardware drivers, wait.... pop up will show you what driver to use. below, select enable. once you have connected the ethenet and/or your drivers loaded via ethernet for wireless, then your NetworkManager will pop up. if not, put the eth back, and use sudo apt-get install networkmanager. this works for me | 21:20 |
| DasEi | oldtopman: so piano got any outlets ? | 21:20 |
| oldtopman | DasEi which sound, I can play all music files, And headphones work | 21:20 |

| sulle | erUSUL, http://maketecheasier.com/turn-your-ubuntu-hardy-to-mac-osx-leopard/2008/07/23 i am trying to "install the dock". | 21:21 |
| DasEi | oldtopman: k, we can ty with that, though I think much easier is to connect headphone out to line/mic in | 21:22 |
| ikonia | aarce: that's why you can't do anything like ls once your in | 21:22 |
| dexter | hi i am wondering if anyone here knows a good chanel for spreadsheet help | 21:22 |
| DasEi | try* | 21:22 |
| firevai | i've tried everything... forum'd and stuff.. just cant get it.. sound works fine in winblows | 21:22 |
| blakkheim | aarce: man sshd_config, you just need to add a line for a chroot dir, it's not difficult | 21:22 |
| allowoverride | so here is the big question. should i use alsa or pulseaudio. yes i am using gnome as gui. | 21:22 |
| nyqvist | ty. it's installed. how do i run it? :) | 21:22 |
| Pianoman13 | allowoverride, thanks i will try it | 21:22 |
| ikonia | blakkheim: that's for the sshd daemon | 21:22 |
| allowoverride | Pianoman13: should work ;) | 21:22 |
| ikonia | blakkheim: not for user jail | 21:22 |
| allowoverride | np | 21:22 |

| guntbert | dexter: #openoffice.org | 21:22 |
| oldtopman | DasEi Same output (sound file) what software do i need for that i have my line in recognized | 21:22 |
| blakkheim | ikonia: if he sets that in sshd_config on the server, then the users who ssh in will be locked to the specific directory | 21:22 |
| allowoverride | someone told me that a few months ago lol... thanks to that guy/gal, forgot who | 21:22 |
| ikonia | aarce: but you won't have access to any of the commands as tools like "ls" are in /bin | 21:22 |
| Pianoman13 | allowoverride, everything seeme to be there and working but i cannot login, so weird | 21:22 |
| allowoverride | Pianoman13: try my fix to the letter, and you will be up | 21:23 |
| aarce | blakkeim: That's what I've done | 21:23 |
| dexter | guntbert, thanks | 21:23 |
| Pianoman13 | see you later | 21:23 |

| jrib | gregre: just use "$x" intead of $x | 21:28 |
| firevai | should open black window with sliders | 21:28 |
| alexxio_ | blakkheim: fdisk is just text mode | 21:28 |
| blakkheim | Trek: they are for filesystem support | 21:28 |
| DasEi | oldtopman : how to loose... lost | 21:28 |
| blakkheim | alexxio_: yes | 21:28 |
| seanbrystone | erUSUL, so like 'find | grep /dev/sdc1'? /dev/sdc1 is what im ytryhing to find when i ran sudo fdisk -l | 21:28 |
| EsatYuce | firevai, ok | 21:28 |
| jrib | alexxio_: that's pretty weird | 21:28 |
| erUSUL | Trek: enable gparted to work with the respective filesystems: xfs; jfs; ntfs and reiserfs | 21:28 |

| Gregory_ | well, one of my drives has a power failure. The other drive has data. Can backup data or create new partition but ubuntu does not recognise the ntfs partition. So after backuing up my data, can i install ubuntu then and how ? | 21:33 |
| Trek | erUSUL, this will probably stump you, but with ALL the files in my /home/ folder, even when using sudo or root, it requires me to chmod +w <filename> in order to save it | 21:33 |
| nyqvist | erUSUL, how do i configure conky? :/ | 21:34 |
| Trek | erUSUL, this happens even after I shifted ownership to my username | 21:34 |
| erUSUL | nyqvist: via ~/.conkyrc search for one in internet to base you config on. tweak as needed | 21:34 |
| erUSUL | Trek: what commands did you used. and what are the files's permissions? | 21:34 |
| nyqvist | ty | 21:35 |
| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: What do you mean by Ubuntu does not regocnize it. can not mount it or the installer does not see it? | 21:35 |
| Trek | erUSUL: used GUI to shift folder ownership to my username, with Read/Write permissions, checked off the "Apply to all files and subfolders", hit apply | 21:35 |
| Gregory_ | second drive has data. NTFS partition. Can backup data but Ubuntu does not let me install to either drive as they do not show when i try to run the installer. | 21:36 |
| Trek | erUSUL: file in question is .bashrc and .bash_aliases | 21:36 |
| Trek | erUSUL: both are in the /home/myUsername folder | 21:36 |

| Gregory_ | yes, it sees the one with data. Other is beyond repair. Windows installer won't entertain it. | 21:37 |
| nibbler | i thought it can be installed on an ntfs system, within a containerfile which itself is of course extX formatted? | 21:38 |
| SirLoseALot | L0C4LH05T: Ubuntu can do ext4 | 21:38 |

| L0C4LH05T | Gregory_: Is the file system with data ext2, ext3, or ext4? | 21:39 |
| vinse | is that kinda thing normal? is the kernel something should i keep up to date? or once i get everything working should i lock it down and not touch anything? | 21:39 |
| nibbler | nice vinse ;-) seems you had some strange/not well supported hardware | 21:39 |

| vinse | nibbler: it's a pretty old laptop, but an ibm, not anything exotic | 21:40 |
| nibbler | vinse: once you have a working one, be happy. onrmally you should never have any problem with it, unless you have hardware that just "does not work" (means: not supported by kernel). whatever, even after updating, you can chose to boot an older kernel in the boot menu, if the latest one should be broken for oyu | 21:40 |
| jazz | how do i know what channels are available ? | 21:40 |
| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: Then theres the still working ntfs one, which you said you can backup, so your data isnt lost | 21:40 |
| DasEi | MichRT: ask in #winehq, see their database, too | 21:40 |

| djm62 | Trek: cool, couldn't find it in the scrollback, just a thought. happened to me once | 21:41 |
| MichRT | DasEi: I did, no help. Oh well. | 21:42 |

| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: Windows can not format a drive in ext3/4 for you | 21:43 |
| erUSUL | Trek: ok | 21:43 |
| Trek | Gregory_ run gparted on the live cd | 21:43 |
| Gregory_ | i was hoping that ubuntu installer would automatically prepare the drive in the right file format | 21:43 |
| MichRT | SirLoseALot: It can, with certain software. | 21:43 |
| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: However, the Ubuntu installer will run gparted automatically for you | 21:43 |
| Trek | Gregory_ it should prepare it in the right format unless you're doing a wubi install | 21:43 |
| airtonix | howto suspend karmic from the commandline ? | 21:44 |
| erUSUL | airtonix: sudo s2ram | 21:44 |
| Trek | erUSUL: it worked, thanks for the help | 21:44 |
| SirLoseALot | MichRT: True, I was refering to this case | 21:44 |
| Trek | one last thought, erUSUL | 21:44 |
| erUSUL | Trek: no problem | 21:44 |
| Gregory_ | Am still a little confused as setup does not detect either drive but can access data on the second drive. | 21:44 |
| airtonix | !info s2ram | 21:44 |
| ubottu | Package s2ram does not exist in karmic | 21:44 |
| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: If you simply want to whipe your current ntfs partition and get Ubuntu on it, let the installer just erase and use the entire disk | 21:45 |
| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: There is an obvious option for that in the installer | 21:45 |
| erUSUL | !find s2ram | 21:45 |
| MichRT | OK, is anyone familiar with SRS effects in WMP 11? Is there an equivilant for Ubuntu? Maybe a Rhythmbox plugin? | 21:45 |

| airtonix | MichRT, is SRS sound effects or visual effects ? | 21:46 |
| MichRT | Sound | 21:46 |
| MichRT | For bass, expander, like 3D audio | 21:47 |
| airtonix | MichRT, ok. have you looked at audacious ? | 21:47 |
| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: The Ubuntu Installer doesnt see your ntfs partition? Thats rather unusual. Does it see a partition called "sda"? | 21:47 |
| MichRT | Used it before, but not for long | 21:47 |
| Gregory_ | gparted does. Installer doesn't | 21:48 |
| erUSUL | airtonix: this should work too althought is less gentle to the OS ---> echo mem | sudo tee /sys/power/state | 21:48 |
| Gregory_ | can run diagnostics on broken drive. cannot on drive with data. | 21:48 |

| Trek | you're telling me, erUSUL. i've got 2 other installs on other comps and they dont have this issue | 21:52 |
| Gregory_ | Reset bios to defaults. had to auto detect all ide devices. before autodetect the only thing that was there constyantly was ide cd drive. Normal post and beep from bios. so figured ide controller was not faulty. Both driuve could not have failed together surely ? | 21:53 |
| erUSUL | Trek: can you look around your filesystem and see if all the files have no w permissions? (ls -l) | 21:53 |

| Gregory_ | cool. So how to format drive in ext4 from ubuntu live cd ? | 21:55 |
| erUSUL | !latest | Tresmius | 21:55 |
| ubottu | Tresmius: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 21:55 |
| Trek | erUSUL, that explains it, those files all have -w | 21:55 |
| Shazam | can't get festival running. when I try to get it to say any command, it fails with Linux: can't open /dev/dsp. I have a working sound system. What might this mean | 21:55 |
| Tresmius | yeah | 21:55 |
| Trek | erUSUL, djm62, the ones owned by root are all identified as owned by 0 | 21:55 |
| Tresmius | but I had a crash problem with "Eternal Lands" and apparently the fix is to either upgrade my driver or downgrade it | 21:55 |
| erUSUL | Trek: everything for all the users? .... how come? a sudo command gone stray ? | 21:55 |
| SirLoseALot | Gregory_: What exactly are you trying to do? Install ubuntu on the drive without losing the data that is present? | 21:55 |
| Trek | erUSUL, not all files, but the protected files | 21:56 |
| Tresmius | So I suppose I'll downgrade it! | 21:56 |
| === krafty is now known as krafty-afk | ||

| hemant | DasEi: I am using irssi on remote server and use a notification script, however when I get multiple messages, they show up one after other. | 22:25 |
| twomonkies | can someone tell my why ubuntu deny all connections from a ip-adress without the firewall activated... works fine from other ip-adresses ? | 22:25 |

| xenocampanoli | Where do I find an Ubuntu Server 32 bit iso download? | 22:25 |
| DasEi | hemant: I'm using pidgin here, it gives a sound, highlights the tab of the channel in a color and can also produce popups | 22:25 |
| Losha | Jeje, there *are* photoshop channels on irc, just not this one. google irc photoshop.... | 22:25 |
| xenocampanoli | I see nothing for this anymore on the main Ubuntu site? | 22:25 |
| terrycojones | DasEi: thanks - that's what i was planning. just wondered if there was a more recommended / less manual approach. will do. thanks again! | 22:26 |
| hemant | DasEi: This is q more general question than irc, in my case the use case happends to be IRC, but otherwise too, i think notify-send message should not block | 22:26 |
| xenocampanoli | Is there a place I can get a modern Ubuntu server 32 bit iso? | 22:26 |
| erUSUL | xenocampanoli: ubuntu.com | 22:27 |
| Losha | xenocampanoli, something you're not finding on http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download ? | 22:27 |
| p11kki0 | hello | 22:27 |
| DasEi | hemant: you're right, but I'm not too deep in irrsi, ask again for an irrsi user | 22:27 |
| xenocampanoli | ubuntu.com ONLY HAS 64BIT. | 22:27 |
| hemant | DasEi: as I said again, its not irssi issues, its net-send, for e.g try this... | 22:27 |
| DasEi | xenocampanoli: ubuntu has 32, too | 22:28 |
| hemant | i mean notify-send | 22:28 |
| hemant | try this | 22:28 |
| hemant | notify-send "Hi" -t 100000 | 22:28 |
| archboxman | hemant: there is a chatroom for irssi and it may be a good Idea to check there | 22:28 |
| SiRuX2 | Anyone remember this PC game as a game? It was an interactive pc game for kids.. You were in a town with a car and you had to get out of town.. a part I remember was driving over nails and I had to go back into the town.... Anyone have any idea of what game this was? | 22:28 |
| hemant | followed by notify-send "by" -t 100000 | 22:28 |
| xenocampanoli | Presumably then I can use 32 bit desktop as a rescue disk for server? | 22:28 |
| hemant | you wont see the by foruntil the 10 sec are over | 22:28 |
| hemant | archboxman: again this is not irssi question, this is notify-send question | 22:29 |
| xenocampanoli | DasEi: I only see 64 bit for server. | 22:29 |
| DasEi | xenocampanoli: which image you want ? ubuntu karmic 32 server ? | 22:29 |
| archboxman | hemant: did you run the script from the irssi website ,becuase none here wrote the script may want to ask irssi | 22:30 |
| xenocampanoli | DasEi: just the latest 32 bit Ubuntu Server should be fine. | 22:30 |
| xfact | is that possible to install (Java) Jre and Jdk latest versions in ubuntu externally? | 22:30 |
| hemant | archboxman: its not a script, its just 2 commands, try it in your terminal | 22:31 |
| xenocampanoli | DasEi: Perhaps I can just use the desktop for rescue purposes...?? | 22:31 |
| hemant | archboxman: as long as u have libnotify installed, notify-send should work | 22:31 |
| archboxman | hemant: there is a irssi script for notifactions... | 22:31 |
| erUSUL | xfact: define externaly | 22:31 |
| DasEi | xenocampanoli: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-server-i386.iso.torrent (torrent) | 22:31 |
| Losha | xenocampanoli, 32 bit desktop should be fine as a rescue disk for server, depending on what kind of rescuing you need to do... | 22:32 |
| hemant | archboxman: can you drop the irssi thing, its nothing to do with irssi | 22:32 |
| DasEi | xenocampanoli: or install the server-kernel in the later, works, too | 22:32 |
| jimmy06 | xenocampanoli http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download-server | 22:32 |

| DefineByte | DasEi: thanks a lot. :) | 23:29 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: oo, ati... most prbly won't work | 23:29 |
| anto9us | Danny``, have you checked it yet? | 23:29 |

| mikeyfbi2 | Guest_84123, isn't that what it's called when you reboot, and have the option to choose what system you are booting into | 23:29 |
| Guest_84123 | i disnt know | 23:30 |
| Guest_84123 | didnt* | 23:30 |
| anto9us | Danny``, ok, how much RAM does the machine have? | 23:30 |
| === me is now known as Guest21370 | ||
| Danny`` | I don't know, I would guesstimate less than gig | 23:30 |
| letaris | hello can so body help me plz! | 23:30 |
| Guest_84123 | but what I do know . . . | 23:30 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: just ask again for your particular model, since hardy the drivers from ati lack support for xorg, but the free radeon are quite good, on my old 9600 could even run compiz with it | 23:30 |
| scivi | ask ure question letaris | 23:31 |
| letaris | ok | 23:31 |
| DefineByte | DasEi: any idea why it's not in karmic? can it cause problems? | 23:31 |
| Guest_84123 | is that Ubuntu or woteva has more problems than all of the previous versions of MS Windows put 2 gther :) | 23:31 |
| letaris | how can i get ubuntu on xo labtop | 23:31 |
| Danny`` | Now it's telling me boot failed whenever | 23:31 |
| Guest_84123 | but | 23:31 |
| scivi | XO? | 23:31 |
| DasEi | DefineByte: most apps are there in 64 bit, too, what do you need ? | 23:31 |
| Guest_84123 | I still hate MS Windows | 23:31 |

| nyqvist | DasEi, i run compiz and all..i guess ubuntu installed some drivers for it :) but i lack in watching movies.. etc..so ain't there some drivers that i need to install for my Gigabyte hd4850 video card? | 23:32 |
| DefineByte | DasEi: i don't know exactly what I need. I just need to be able to compile the kernel for i386. | 23:32 |
| Qvintvs | how do multiple #! lines work in a script? ie if there are two of them which one is used? | 23:32 |
| mix22891 | i've install Samba scan and i don't see any icon | 23:33 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: if compiz runs and resoltion is fine, your problem is elsewhere, hdmi videos ? | 23:33 |
| happyfeet | anyone use blender3d? | 23:33 |
| nyqvist | dvdrip and hd movies, yes. | 23:33 |
| DasEi | DefineByte: oo, then you definitly need a 32 bit os | 23:33 |
| Danny`` | I guess I will go buy some blank CDs and burn the small installation | 23:34 |
| Danny`` | Thanks | 23:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | Qvintvs, the "#!/interpreter" is typically only used on the first line of a script, I "imagine" others are ignored (you might want to try asking in #bash) for a more authoritative answer (as mine is only a guess) | 23:34 |
| DefineByte | DasEi: surely there's got to be a way? Seems unbelievable that there isn't | 23:34 |
| happyfeet | Anyone out there use blender3d? | 23:35 |
| mix22891 | i've install Samba scan and i don't see any icon | 23:35 |
| DasEi | DefineByte: the kernel is what makes a sys either a 32 or 64, their libs are different, so can't mix it | 23:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | !anyone > happyfeet | 23:35 |
| ubottu | happyfeet, please see my private message | 23:35 |
| euphorian | hello all, i think the nvidia-glx-96 driver i have is bad for my video card, and i dont think it will work with the later versions, its an old graphics card, but performs way better in windows :( | 23:35 |
| anto9us | happyfeet, join #blender | 23:36 |
| sarthor | Hi Again, my kismet is working now, Now, my dsl modem is just 5 ft away from my laptop, and it shows my 55% signals, while on windows 7 and on the other laptop the signals are more than 90%, I am using ubuntu karmic 32bit on Asus K50IN, how can i slove this problem? | 23:36 |
| euphorian | is there any way to use a specific driver | 23:36 |
| DasEi | euphorian: looked it up under hardwaredrivers ? | 23:36 |
| DasEi | which card ? | 23:36 |
| archboxman | great now I got irssi to do notifactions to my desktop.. now I got to get the bell working :) | 23:37 |
| DefineByte | DasEi: but the source from kernel.org is arch agnostic so it must be possible? I mean, are devs for ARM systems supposed to work on Beagle Boards or what? I refuse to believe there isn't a way even if it's painful and convoluted. :D | 23:38 |
| mix22891 | i've install Samba scan and i don't see any icon | 23:38 |
| anto9us | mix22891, what was the package name? | 23:38 |
| archboxman | Can we run wow inside of VirtualBox and XP??? | 23:38 |
| mix22891 | anto9us >samba-3.4.5 | 23:38 |
| DasEi | DefineByte: i don't get the purpose of your claims | 23:39 |
| klappi | archboxman: i run wow in wine | 23:39 |
| Bird|lab | o/ all, what DHCP client daemon does Ubuntu use by default? (dhclient, dhcpcd, udhcpd, pump) | 23:39 |
| anto9us | mix22891, it doesn't scan, that's a server to share your own folders | 23:39 |
| Bird|lab | archboxman: there shouldn't be any need to do that, last I saw, it ran quite happily in Wine | 23:39 |
| seanbrystone | what is a good rescue live cd? I checked out SuperRescue CD on distrowatch but it has been discontinued | 23:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | archboxman, it might be possible (but I doubt it would be of playable quality), as others above have suggested wine is probably the way to go | 23:40 |
| mix22891 | where i can find samba scan? | 23:40 |
| bikcmp | is there any way to 'run as administrator'? | 23:40 |
| jrib | bikcmp: why? What do you want to do exactly? | 23:40 |
| DasEi | DefineByte: if you want a 32 bit, install it, same for 64. some (very rare) apps are not brought to 64 yet, for that can use getlibs | 23:40 |
| klappi | archboxman: run it with -opengl argument | 23:40 |
| anto9us | mix22891, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba | 23:40 |
| bikcmp | jrib: DNS app, and says permission denied | 23:40 |
| MarkovBot | This is the Markov Chain Text Box, ready for service. | 23:40 |
| DasEi | seanbrystone: knoppix, for which needs ? | 23:40 |
| archboxman | klappi: seen that I don't know how to configure Wine may be try playonlinux any advise??? | 23:40 |
| jrib | bikcmp: be more specific | 23:40 |
| BluesKaj | mix22891,try networking in nautilus | 23:40 |
| bikcmp | jrib: gadmin-bind | 23:40 |
| bikcmp | :P | 23:40 |
| jrib | MarkovBot: no talking bots here please | 23:40 |
| seanbrystone | DasEi, i cant get knoppix to detect my ATI | 23:41 |
| DefineByte | DasEi: I want 64bit on this PC but for another I need to compile a custom 32bit kernel to get it working. | 23:41 |
| bikcmp | jrib: I think he is a bot | 23:41 |
| bikcmp | :P | 23:41 |
| Noldorin | jrib, mind if it just trains here? | 23:41 |
| DefineByte | I've done it before but that was when I had a 32bit system | 23:41 |
| Noldorin | jrib, it won't write anything | 23:41 |
| jrib | Noldorin: it's fine as long as it doesn't speak | 23:41 |
| Noldorin | just gather training data. | 23:41 |
| klappi | archboxman: i just copied my windows installation to a dir under linux and startet it in wine i use the same install since classic | 23:41 |
| Noldorin | jrib, ok cool. cheers | 23:41 |
| mix22891 | BlueKaj what? | 23:41 |
| DasEi | seanbrystone: or a ubuntu live cd then | 23:41 |
| seanbrystone | ok ty | 23:42 |
| archboxman | klappi: didn't know that was possible... ok :) | 23:42 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, yes. hd and dvdrip movies... | 23:42 |
| archboxman | has anyone tried Star Trek Online??? is it still a beta?? | 23:43 |
| jrib | bikcmp: I'm not familiar with gadmin-bind, but "gksudo" is what you want I suppose. Just make sure it's really meant to be run as superuser | 23:43 |
| klappi | archboxman: but i saw that playonlinux has an option for wow | 23:43 |
| mawst | torchlight is a no go in pol | 23:44 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: i used vlc and had noprobs, though haven't tried blueray | 23:44 |
| euphorian | DasEi, theres only one driver in that box and its the 96 driver | 23:44 |
| archboxman | klappi: yes ,but not sure on how reliable heard people complain about not working right.. .... | 23:44 |
| DasEi | euphorian: which card ? | 23:44 |
| euphorian | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 Go] (rev b2) | 23:45 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, so what you saying, if i got my resolution set to best and compiz working fine, it's not drivers problem for 100%? | 23:45 |
| archboxman | klappi: Wow work with a Geforce GT 240 1 GB GDDR5 going to replace video card its old a 7800 gt | 23:46 |
| DasEi | euphorian: you can go to nvidia's hp an get the latest driver, on your own risk can also check envyng | 23:46 |
| DasEi | !envy | euphorian | 23:46 |
| ubottu | euphorian: EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia or ATi drivers, it can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" (for Gtk/Gnome) or "envyng-qt" (for Qt/KDE). It is NOT a supported method to install video drivers; please only use it if standard methods fail and at your own risk - See also !BinaryDriver | 23:46 |
| euphorian | DasEi, thank you | 23:47 |
| euphorian | i will try it | 23:47 |
| DasEi | !BinaryDriver | euphorian | 23:47 |
| ubottu | euphorian: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 23:47 |
| DasEi | euphorian: to install, log out of x , install d/l'ed driver, restart x | 23:48 |
| klappi | archboxman: i play with geforece 9800gt | 23:48 |
| DefineByte | OK, I'll give up for now and look into it again tomorrow. Bye. :) | 23:48 |
| archboxman | klappi: good card want to take advantage of the new arictuture in Nvidia with firme, so That is why I want the GDDR5 | 23:49 |

I've installed Seahorse and extra plugins but there doesnt seem to be an option. PLease someone point me in the right direction | 23:52 |
| sum1 | hi again.. | 23:52 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/377998/ | 23:52 |
| gc_for_ubuntu | Help plz. my screen resolution is too low | 23:53 |
| sum1 | a simple question, in if [ statement1 -o $[ statement2 AND statement3 ] ] | 23:53 |
| bluedwarf | hello all | 23:53 |
| sum1 | how i got to write the AND? and the nested $[] was right? | 23:53 |
| unperson | I've been looking at Ubuntu variants that might be suitable for a netbook with little space and a slow CPU. I'm a bit confused about how Ubuntu Netbook Remix, Ubuntu Mobile and Embedded, Ubuntu Moblin Remix all relate. First of all, are some of these the same thing? | 23:54 |
| bluedwarf | I am confused as hell | 23:54 |
| bluedwarf | how do I get my cam to work | 23:54 |
| Craig_Dem | !unr | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu | 23:54 |
| sum1 | unperson i think that there are only different packages combos.. so you can't take any of these | 23:54 |
| BluesKaj | !ask | bluedwarf | 23:55 |
| ubottu | bluedwarf: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:55 |
| bluedwarf | what | 23:55 |
| Craig_Dem | If you have little Cpu I would reccomend you try Xubuntu | 23:55 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: yeah, the driver section looks o.k., glx and fglrx are loaded, but there is no monitor section in your xorg.conf, and though xorg can figure out modelines, dpms is turned off, there might be an issue | 23:56 |
| nikolatesla | hello | 23:56 |

| sum1 | a simple question, in if [ statement1 -o $[ statement2 AND statement3 ] ] | 23:57 |
| DasEi | bluedwarf: pidgin also has a new plugin for that | 23:57 |
