Typos_KingMarkive:    have skype input device to be the soundcard, and have the text-to-speech app speak your typed-in text... that'd do it, just need to find a 'barry white' voice :P00:04

magn3tsAnyone using the Nvidia 195 driver?00:20
DemoOnblakkheim: with what can i make it except usb creator that comes default with ubuntu?00:20
dlynesThe reason I'm asking is because I'm currently doing a ubuntu install from a normal install00:20
dlynesmagn3ts, yes00:20
Boots32MDemoOn, unetbootin is pretty much what you use if you want to do a kind of one time lookiluu before jumping into ubuntu...00:20
dlynesAnd I have a script for automating all my configuration from a terminal after the initial install00:21
Boots32MI had to reinstall it on my flash drive every time I tried to use it.00:21
IdleOne!remaster > dlynes00:21

ZykoticK9ubyserver, don't know sorry00:22
ubyserverthank you00:22
magn3tsdlynes, can you elaborate... I am as well00:22
dlynesmagn3ts, ubuntu doesn't boot up clean every time, and I'm not sure if it's the nvidia opengl driver or not00:22
ticko!mount ticko00:22
Wolfen69DemonOn: use remastersys to create your image, then usb startup disk creator00:22
dlynesmagn3ts, i suspect it's probably the driver00:22
ltrainerTypos_King what is bc43-fwcutter?00:22
magn3tsdlynes, grrr, exact problem I'm having00:22
IdleOneticko: use /msg ubottu mount00:22
Typos_Kingltrainer:    technically, 9.1 already has the drives for the broadcom ones, they just do not include the firmware due to license issues, from what I read, so, b43-fwcutter does that part00:23
Typos_Kings/drives/drivers/00:23
IdleOneltrainer: the drivers you probably need00:23
magn3tsdlynes, gah, I even meant 190 too and its supposed to be stable. 195 only booted properly 1/5 times maybe :[00:23
DemoOnWolfen69: no, startup disk creator does its job, but then i get errors, and i think u couldnt help me00:23
dlynesmagn3ts, i.e. sometimes it boots up with a black screen, and I go to Alt-F8(?...memory's sketchy), and I get a garbled screen that looks like ascii graphics00:23
Boots32MDemoOn, I just made sure with unetbootin that my internet and essentials worked then I jumped right in and installed it next to windows.... Now I'm dual cool:)00:23
dlynesmagn3ts, it works for me about 4 out of every 5 times00:23
magn3tsdlynes, weird. weird weird00:23
DemoOnBoots32M: i need for other reasons that i can save changes00:24
dlynesmagn3ts, however, I'm trying 183 now00:24
Boots32Mwell I installed 9.10 netbook remix (from the halls of the Karmic Kola)00:24
dlynesmagn3ts, or 187(?)00:24
magn3tsSo new question, anyone using nvidia 190 and have to switch to virtual console 7 where X is running manually?00:24
ltraineroic thx00:24
Boots32MI'd go with wolfen's Idea then and use remastersys00:24
Boots32Mbut I dunno what that is so I couldn't tell you00:24
dlynesmagn3ts, I just started using ubuntu last week (got thrown into it with a new job i started)00:24
magn3tsdlynes, 190 is *okay* (I think my other problem is with awn-trunk) but sometimes the TTY/Virtual consoles aren't working and I always have to switch to tty7 manually to get to X.00:24
IdleOnedlynes: awesome00:24
dlynesmagn3ts, but whatever it does, the machine's so comopletely locked up, I can't even ctrl-alt-del it00:25
Sistkhi, excuse me, It is any way to execute a visual basic aplication in ubuntu? (forgive me english please)00:25
DaZdo we even have ctrl alt del? >:00:25
Flare-Laptopdlynes: Control alt del doesn't work on Ubuntu00:25

ubottupundo: 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/RootSudo01:02

dj_segfaultI want to convert videos to ipod format in Karmic.  ffmpeg no longer has xvid in it, so it can't do it, and avidemux was shipped with a bug so it can't do it either.  How do you do it in karmic?02:02
kyrixaloprot, man is already a command :p02:03
kaolbrecaloprot: No, it's affirmative action02:03
nwidger^vivitar: so would there be any point in getting it over ddr2 800?02:03
histo^vivitar: nwidger actualy it's a lot faster than 9.1002:03
^vivitarhisto: eh?02:03
aloprotOhh yes, man has a command named after him, forgot that. Sorry it was a stupid question.02:03
nwidger^vivitar: im confused too :)02:03
kyrixhisto, can you just background it manually with & and see if jobs works?02:04
Picialoprot: 1) Its not on-topic for this channel 2) It seems you misunderstand why such a project exists, see http://women.ubuntu.com for more information.02:04

timrosenblatti'm having a weird issue. I'm trying to *make* a ruby process use 100% CPU, as a test of something. I'm running `while true do ; end` on ubuntu, and only getting it up to 38% CPU.  On OSX, it goes right up to 100% no problem. Same results from 1.8.7 and 1.9.1 under ubuntu, so it's not a ruby version. I tried using nice -n -20 but that didn't change anything either. Why would this happen?02:14

FoolsRunAlright, I've been in and out of here all night but I've figured out some of my problem: Ubuntu is not detecting my EDID information on my monitor. Here's the weird thing, though: it SOMETIMES works, but mostly not. Sometimes when I boot it'll be perfect.02:18
Dr_Willissirninja:  check the forums for 'sound click' or 'sound powersave' tweaks  perhaps. will show what to change.02:19
sirninjaDr_Willis: was it /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf? I changed it to powersave 0 instead of powersave 10. that fixed it before, but it's not helping this time. do you have any other ideas of things to check?02:19

Greg__xangua is there a special command I need to type into the terminal?02:24
dj_segfaultFrei: The problem is you have the class in the package "test".  You either need to move the class file into a directory called test inside the current directory, or remove the package from the source and recompile.02:25

I'm running `while true do ; end` on ubuntu, and only getting it up to 38% CPU.  On OSX, it goes right up to 100% no problem. Same results from 1.8.7 and 1.9.1 under ubuntu, so it's not a ruby version. I tried using nice -n -20 but that didn't change anything either. Why would this happen?02:55

Xaero252Quick question, say I had two gpus (not in sli, nor connected for sli, both nvidia) One being used, and enabled for X, and the other completely ambigious from linux directly, if I gave a qemu virtual machine full hardware access to said secondary gpu, would I be able to use it for graphical acceleration?04:23

SarrasineI thought that snippet said something about plenty of detail, etc...04:42
git__yeah ... my laptop temp goes up to 80C and just freezes on 9.10, i thought maybe Lucid Lynx would solve it04:42
Sarrasinegit__, Is your fan running?04:43
git__the fan is running minimally which isn't sufficient to cool the CPU ... i have a HP nw844004:44
daftykinsgit__: have you checked the BIOS for any cooling related settings, also for BIOS updates to remedy that?04:44
ZachFhi folks, i moved from ubuntu to ArchLinux a few months ago and have greatly enjoyed the extra speed my system has gained by loosing the bloat, but not being a hugley *nix savvey user, i'm really starting to miss apt-* and the vast software repo's of ubuntu/debian. is there a way i can speed up my system using ubuntu, without loosing the usability?04:44
* Sensiva loves apt04:45
dim3000having weird problems, and random shut downs/freezes04:45
SarrasineZachF, I'm in the same boat - Ubuntu is just too bloated for me as it ships. Just do like I do and simply open up Synaptic and cut everything you don't want/need.04:46
git__i enable the BIOS setting to always run fan when AC is connected but that didn't really help ... my laptop froze every 6 hours of use, and when i compile a program that takes 1-2 hours to compile, it freezes within 30 min during compilation04:46
SensivaZachF and disable desktop effects04:46
LeempOdd question. I'm using one of the older generation Mac Pros (2006 time range, x2 Dual Core Xeons). I need to upgrade my Gfx card to something with better Linux drivers, but Mac limits your options. Any idea if that is OSX specific, and Linux has no limitations? Or does all the talk about custom firmware on the graphics cards actually matter?04:46
Leemp(Suppose this is more linux oriented, not ubuntu specific.. hmm)04:46
SarrasineLeemp, you might try #Linux04:47
jsecLeemp, I thought the Mac Pros had generic PCI-E slots?04:47
Leempjsec: I thought so too, but i started looking up standard video cards and i got a lot of custom firmware, and flashing talk. It's hard to distinguish it from OSX related talks.04:48
ZachFSarrasine: i would much rather it be the other way around! i have toyed with minimal (command line) installs, but desktop intergration never seems to work quite right that way.. i was wondering if there is a way to install the core ubuntu OS without any extra software (all the editors and misc apps etc)04:48
SensivaZachF xubuntu?04:48
ardchoilleZachF: you can try ubuntu server edition04:48
SarrasineZachF, I know, I'm the same way. Like ardchoille suggested - the server edition might work better.04:49
rothsdadhey, does anybody know of a command-line RSS reader?04:49
blakkheimrothsdad: raggle04:49
Flannelrothsdad: newsbeuter04:49
jsecLeemp, I figure it would be just related to OSX, as linux wouldn't care what the hardware was meant to run on... but that's just my two cents04:49
rothsdadthanks04:49
Flannelrothsdad: actually, http://tinyapps.org/blog/nix/200708170700_command_line_feed_readers.html04:49
Leempjsec: I think i'll go ahead and try it. I'm itching to get gaming on Linux04:49
rothsdadFlannel: thx04:50
dim3000shut down during memtest86+, mem problems?04:50
ZachFSensiva: ive used xubuntu, its not bad, and i have the server edition installed.. on my server =) but doing "apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" is going to install all the extra crap isnt it?04:50
tucemiuxanyone knows how to setup an encrypted partition with luks to that it mounts at boot time?  I can map the partition manually and mount it manually but I want the mapping and mounting to be done at boot time when I boot up my laptop04:50
Leempjsec: Now that one of the few modern linux games is open beta :o.04:50
jsecZachF, if you run apt-simulate xubuntu-desktop, it should show you what will be installed without actually installing it04:51
SarrasineLeemp, which is that? *stuck in the past*04:51
SensivaZachF yeah, but this will only use more space, not cpu resources, you will run one session at a time not both04:51
LeempSarrasine: Heroes of Newerth. I personally haven't seen too many commercial linux games i've been interested in. So im pumped for this hehe, that and i really want to show it in their linux stats04:51
tucemiuxjsec, "apt-simulate"?!?04:51
tucemiuxLeemp, what type of game is Heroes of Newerth?04:52
SarrasineLeemp, *is googling...*04:52

Sarrasinetucemiux, Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and Frozen Throne04:53
SensivaZachF tucemiux jsec its apt-get -s install xubuntu-desktop04:53
jsecSensiva, yes that's the one. my fault on syntax >_<04:53
daftykinsgit__: do you still have windows on? does the fan kick in more at a certain temp?04:53
tucemiuxjsec, that's not working either, i dont believe "simulate" is a real command, try it on your machine04:53
Sensiva:D04:54
LeempSarrasine: Yea, i really enjoyed DotA. I didn't find it amazing, but it was fun. Like Footies (i probably enjoyed that more). Either way HoN has ladders, competitive rankings, etc.04:54

SarrasineI usually only deal with FOSS. I won't have anything to do with proprietary software, under normal circumstances.04:58
tucemiuxSarrasine, tremelous is far away from the likes of et and UrT, I tried OpenArena but not many humans in there, I really want to pwn humans in network games04:59
Sarrasinetucemiux, Well, I've never played et and played UrT so long ago that it might as well not matter.04:59
tucemiuxSarrasine, if it works on ubuntu I would not mind using proprietary software04:59
bonksusr13: i went into that dir and did dir svn*, but there are no matching files05:00

seanbrystonehow do i run a .sh script from another directory other than the one the script is in? ive tried moving it to /home/seanbrystone/bin and /usr/bin  no luck05:13
=== FliesLikeABrick_ is now known as FliesLikeABrick
Sensivaseanbrystone first make sure its executable by doing chmod +x , then you can run it from any where by typing in terminal /path/to//script.sh05:14
seanbrystoneyep did that05:14
Leempardchoille: Is this list a must have? Ie, does a card have to be on here to work with my version? Also what is the ubuntu version thing about? 9.10 is only *supported* by a couple cards05:14
seanbrystonebut i wanna run the script from any dir without having to do /path/to/script.sh05:14
ardchoilleLeemp: No, that list is maintained by the community. Just because an item isn't there doesn't mean it won't work. Anyone can add hardware as they find new working models05:15
zoinki need some help. i created a partition on /dev/sdb, when it ry to write the filesystem it won't let me.  it shows up under fdisk -l, but not with ls /dev/sd*05:15
usr13seanbrystone: Then you need to put it in your path the dir it's in to your path.05:15
Leempardchoille: Gotcha.05:15
Sarrasinezoink, Did you reboot?05:15
seanbrystoneusr13 how?05:15
zoinkSarrasine: yes05:15
ardchoilleLeemp: some hardware is only supported in certain ubuntu versions.. an example would be NIC cards05:16
Leempardchoille: In that case i'll basically be going to best buy tomorrow and buying the best pcie card i can get my hands on. Nvidia has good linux drivers right?05:16

seanbrystoneusr13, where do i paste that?05:17
usr13seanbrystone: PATH="$PATH: /home/seanbystone/bin"05:17
Sarrasinezoink, and the output?05:17

SatzoHi.  My mousewheel(up and down) usually scrolls text in an app, but sometimes it zooms the whole desktop in and out.  I assume that is a feature but I don't know how to turn it on and off.  Help please.05:17
ardchoilleLeemp: But, I build my own machines, using parts that I already know work with Ubuntu.. which is why I use that HCL list extensively05:17
seanbrystoneoh ok ty usr1305:17
Leempardchoille: Any idea if they lag behind in their own drivers? Should i stray away from newer cards?05:17

usr13seanbrystone: If you have it in the directory /home/seanbrystone/bin  you should only need to add that to your path.05:21

usr13!modem | Omr06:28
ubottuOmr: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto - Also try disabling/removing KNetworkManager if KDE applications cannot connect using dial-up06:28
rocket16You can use gnome-ppp, or kppp to set it up. No installation is needed.06:28
OmrYeah i read that but after running scan modem my modem is detected as Intel 82440MX AC'97 and the guide does not cover this chipset06:29
rocket16Use sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp. Now, after installation, run it, select setup, and then "Detect Modem", and enter the Username, password and Access number06:29
Omrapt get with no internet fails a little06:30

Omri can put them on pc with memory stick thank you06:30

ZachFok folks, so im going to switch back to ubuntu from Arch... is there a particular kernel that suits laptops, dual core processors etc?06:31
rocket16And, be sure to install five other packages, namely wvdial and others,06:31
rocket16Omr, a better link is http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/gnome-ppp with all necessary dependencies06:32
Omrthanks06:33
tallyhoubuntu hibernating settings, anyone?06:33
Omrcan i run all this from command line or do i need a gui?06:33
tallyhoi checked power management but after some time it still goes into sleep mode06:33
tallyhothe tower just turns off06:34
rocket16A GUI is better, but you can run them from command line too.06:34
rocket16Use "gdebi packagename.deb" after "cd address" command,06:35
icerootOmr: because the cli is much more powerfull, you can do EVERYTHING from the clie06:35

OmrThanks because i only want to use CLI06:36
ZachF_so folks, is the best option for a slim install to install from the server image and add a DE on top of that? or is there a way to get rid of the bloat from the desktop image before i install?06:36
FlannelZachF_: Server CD or the Alternate CD can install a CLI-only system06:37
icerootZachF_: so you only want gnome and not ubuntu-desktop?06:37
FlannelZachF_: Desktop (Live) CD can't though06:37
rocket16I just downloaded the C++ Documentation from Synaptic. How do I start it?06:37
idespinnerZachF_, i think you can with the alternate cd iso...06:37
rocket16No menu or entry is there, please help.06:37
ZachF_iceroot, i want the full deal, but i dont want all the extra crap, all the misc editors and other bloat.06:37
icerootZachF_: misc editors? there is only gedit06:38
ZachF_one of the things i miss after going from ubuntu to arch is the tight desktop intergration.06:38
rocket16How to run C++ Documentation in Ubuntu?06:38
idespinnerZachF_, you sound like a gentoo kinda guy...06:38
motaka2>as i have upgraded php5.2 to php 5.3 on ubuntu, it seems the gd2 library doesnt work anymore, you got the soloutions?06:38
icerootrocket16: man command  i guess06:38
FlannelZachF_: If you just want to remove the duplicate editors and stuff, removing them after install might be the way to go06:38
SensivaYeah but he loves apt06:38
ZachF_idespinner: i like the theory, but i dont have the patience for it06:39
rocket16man command? You mean man c++?06:39
icerootrocket16: man cout06:39
icerootrocket16: i guess06:39
rocket16Thanks iceroot, but showing "no entry"06:40
SensivaZachF_ if all fails, go Debian06:40
rocket16When I use man c++, just a manual page of c++ comes06:40
icerootrocket16: and that is not what you want?06:40
ddavidshello06:40
ZachF_Sensiva: am i going to get the same dektop intergration (ie, click a file and it opens) with debian as i do with ubuntu?06:40
rocket16Not exactly, because the files were more than 20 MB, and total description of tutorial of C++ was promised there, :)06:41
SensivaZachF_ sure , actually what you are talking about is the environment itself Gnome or KDE06:41
FlannelZachF_: Sensiva isn't really making sense.  There's no real benefit to going to debian for what you're looking for06:41
Gheddy_Zarcif I have two files with different exstensions as in one is .diff and other is .deb are they the same file in different formats ?06:41
icerootZachF_: yes but debian-gnome is much much older and the big problem is, that ubuntu is patching gnome like hell and not upstreaming the patches, so the debian-gnome is very different/not good06:42
rocket16Anyway, bye all, thanks.06:42
ddavidsi have sound from my system's internal speakers when my headphones are connected, how do i fix this?06:42
Omrumm. Just a quick follow up question...  Every Dependency i download has a different dependency that has a different dependency.  I Have download 30 packages already,  When do i stop downloading dependencies?06:42
SensivaFlannel he is looking for a light weight distro with apt as a package manager06:42
icerootSensiva: xubuntu06:43
OmrDoesn't DSL have apt06:43
elf429anyone know how i can get RealTek audio Drivers for Ubuntu 9.10?06:43
elf429i hear NOTHING!?06:43
Omrand only 50 megs with gui?06:43
ZachF_omr, i like "apt-get build-dep <package name>"06:43
idespinnerOmr, is it automatic download06:43
idespinner?06:43
MagnesiumZachF_: Try Xubuntu06:43
Sensivaiceroot he wants gnome desktop06:43
helloyohey guys, is is possible to get the error output from openoffice?06:43
FlannelSensiva: Debian doesn't give him anything that Ubuntu doesn't.  His original question was about building up from a command line only system vs removing extra stuff from a full desktop install06:43
iceroothelloyo: start it from the cli06:43
ZachF_Sensiva: im not swayed by any particular DE, i just want it to work06:44
SensivaFlannel that the middle of the convo, he asked his main question a while ago, scroll up06:44
Omras soon as i get the modem working i will use apt get commands :) thanks for info but im manually downloading from a MS OS till i get the dial up modem going06:44
helloyoiceroot, it has no output06:44
SensivaZachF_ then to xubuntu you go06:45
FlannelZachF_: His first question was about server + packages or desktop - packages.  Like I said,06:45
Flanneler, blah.  Sensiva ^^06:45
Sensiva:D06:45
ZachF_so Flannel, like you said, my question remains, build up from CLI install or strip out the desktop install?06:46
ZachF_i have a decent ADSL connection and reasonable data allowences, so im not worried about it either way.06:46
FlannelZachF_: From what you said later, it sounded like you didn't have much to trim.  So stripping might be an easier way to go.06:46
=== zz_Jari is now known as Jari
Sensiva<ZachF>hi folks, i moved from ubuntu to ArchLinux a few months ago and have greatly enjoyed the extra speed my system has gained by loosing the bloat, but not being a hugley *nix savvey user, i'm really starting to miss apt-* and the vast software repo's of ubuntu/debian. is there a way i can speed up my system using ubuntu, without loosing the usability?06:47
SensivaThat's what he said ^^06:47
ZachF_Flannel: ok then, i'll go with that, my next and hopefully final questionf (for tonight) is about kernals, is there anything to gain by using the server vs. desktop images in that regard?06:48
FlannelZachF_: You're using this computer by sitting in front of it and using a keyboard/mouse that's plugged directly into it, right?06:48
ZachF_Flannel: yeah its a laptop...06:49
FlannelZachF_: You'll want the generic kernel then, not the server one06:49
MiliasColdshello06:49
MiliasColdsdo06:49
MiliasColdsso06:50
ZachF_ok then, thanks for everyone thats helped me =) hopefully i'll see you on the other side of a successful install =)06:50
FlannelZachF_: If, in the future, you decide to install from the server CD (alternate CD installs generic by default), you'll want to switch over to linux-generic from the server kernel as well06:50

eremiteHow do I force FireFox to ask if I want to save a password?  YouTube isnt letting me save the username and password for 2 of my accounts, but YouTube is NOT in the list (Preferences>Security>Exceptions).  How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.  Oh, and I dont want to install any plugins to fix it.06:51
FlannelBriareos1: ~/Desktop is the desktop, so add a file there06:52
FlannelMiliasColds: ask the question and anyone who knows the answer will answer it06:52
MiliasColdsis there a reason a hard disk would show up to the os (mountable) and gparted, but not in the installer. this was usung IDE and AHCI on bios settings06:52
Briareos1Flannel: Thank you, do you happen to know how I can add Menue-Entrys to the main menue (applications) as well?06:52

steppenwolfHello everybody I want to install ubuntu on a double core machine HD= 180 GB and want to make a partition with XP, I have 3GB07:53
steppenwolfRA<M07:53
ddavidsi have problems connecting my karmic to another ubuntu karmic in a network share...07:53
Xaero252Anyway, anybody know what might be up with pulse suddenly not seeing my audio drivers?07:53
steppenwolfRAM= 3GB how many what size and what types of partitions would you recomend07:54
darolusteppenwolf: boot with the LiveCD and then use Gparted (at system - admin)07:54
steppenwolfyeah I had think about that07:54
soicon@ steppenwolf: it depends on your need :D,07:55
darolusteppenwolf: that depends to you, I recommend to have / and /home separated (on different partitions); with your hardware 1GB of swap should do it07:55
darolusteppenwolf: I usually give 8 - 10 GB to my / partition, is more than enough for what I use07:55
babbiook i setup a global proxy configuration in System-Preferences-NetworkProxy07:56
tiger_what is the difference between gtk and gnome?07:56
dsnydersHI all.  Can someone point me to a good site explaining xorg.conf, please.  I'm getting a signal that my monitor cannot display the resolution it's set to.07:56
steppenwolfexactly I was thinking on a 10GB for /07:56
babbiobut in synaptic i can't connect07:56
babbiohow to setup synaptic tu use global proxy configurations?07:56
ardchoilletiger_: gtk is a toolkit used to draw widgets for apps.. gnome is a desktop environment07:56
darolusteppenwolf: 10GB is more than enough for a regular desktop07:56
ardchoilletiger_: GTK = gimp tool kit07:56
steppenwolfwith 3GB of RAM does it pay back 1GB of swap?07:57
darolusteppenwolf: I think so, you probably will never use more than 100MB of swap (depending on what you do) but 1GB would be my recommendation07:57
dsnydersdarolu, I thought the recommendation was for 1.5* your ram?07:58
isolat3dsh33pguys, how to edit the Places menu? I want to add a folder to the menu.07:58
steppenwolfok!! what about a partition to share documents between XP and linux?07:58
soicon3GB RAM without running virtual machine is more than enough :D07:58
iDopeexcellent, its working :) thx Flannel07:58
ardchoilleisolat3dsh33p: open nautilus and drag a folder to the Places pane07:58
theadminsteppenwolf: You can just put them on your XP partition, they should be accessible within Ubuntu this way07:59
davixI've broken my apt-get with a bad repository, I tried apt-get -f install and it won't let me fix it, also tried with --purge, autoremove and clean. none helped and the package is still stuck what else can I try?07:59
daroludsnyders: I don't follow that recommendation, it is deprecated IMO, now there are systems with up to 8 or even 16GB and 4-8GB swaps are ridiculous imo (specially with home desktops)07:59
[deXter]Which are the best repo(s) to add to get the latest stable packages?07:59
isolat3dsh33pardchoille, i don't know it'll be that easy. =_=... thanks btw ^_^07:59

zetherooI am just getting errors08:00
ardchoille!alien | zetheroo using alien is dangerous08:00
ubottuzetheroo using alien is dangerous: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported)08:00
dsnydersdarolu, Well, it has been a few years since I saw that recomendation (ie, back in the sub gigabyte ram days).08:00
iDopelol I'm installing on a system with 32GB ram that is at least 2 years old :)08:00
darolusteppenwolf: Ubuntu can mount windows partitions; the problem would be to mount Linux partitions on windows, it is possible, but you'd need to install additional software08:00

daroludsnyders: any text editor should get the work done08:02
steppenwolf one swap08:02
zetheroo[deXter] error: incorrect format: unknown tag08:02
[deXter]zetheroo: Try upgrading the version of alien you have, looks like it's not supporting some features of the rpm..08:03
dsnydersdarolu, I was hoping for something that didn't require me spending half an hour trying to unravel how xorg.conf works.08:03
darolusteppenwolf: I also recommend placing your swap between / and /home, so if use of swap is neede it would be accesible without your hard drive moving too much (hence gaining speed)08:03
zetheroo[deXter]: I just installed it08:03
daroludsnyders: if you don't want learn how xorg.conf works you can use your video driver utilities to configure it; other option is xrandr08:04
[deXter]zetheroo: Then it could be that the rpm contains some functionality that alien doesn't know (yet) how to convert.. I recommend installing from source, to avoid potential problems..08:05
ardchoillezetheroo: Excuse me please, but what part of "dangerous" did you not understand? Perhaps you need to compile from source and build your own .deb?08:05
BigMack83in k9copy, when encoding a video from disc it uses the avi container. how can i change it to mp4 ?08:05
mikesee!mint08:05
ubottuThere are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux)08:05
dsnydersdarolu, my xserver is dishing out video that my monitor can't display.  The driver utils are useless without a display.  I'll check xrander.08:05
daroludsnyders: that kind of tools would help you with video configurations; other components like mice, keyboards, etc., won't be configured with them08:05
steppenwolfok thats nice08:06
steppenwolfdo I make NTFS partitions so XP can read them?08:06
steppenwolfat leas /home?08:06
zetherooardchoille: I understand dangerous ... but it's also a bit general and I would like to have a bit more information than just being told "it's dangerous" ... many people are doing it so it's working for some ...08:06
mikesee!mintsupport08:06
ubottuLinux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org08:06
darolusteppenwolf: I wouldn't use ntfs for your home, stick to ext4; you can install programs to read linux paritions in windows xp08:06
kevwildeHi, I maintain software which is available in the ubuntu repository. This is however a very old one (2.6) and we're currently not supporting that anymore. How do i get this package retracted from the repository?08:06
icerootsteppenwolf: dont make /home NTFS!!!08:07
mikeseedont they have a mint channel here on freenode?08:07
ardchoillezetheroo: Ah, you need to learn on your own.. good point08:07
Myrttikevwilde: peeps in #ubuntu-motu might be able to help a bit more08:07
soicon:d strange idea <= /home is NTFS08:07
iDopedont make /home NTFS!!! EXACTLY!!!08:07
mikeseefor some reason my mint installation now have the ubuntu loader08:07
steppenwolfok08:07
icerootsteppenwolf: you want to access /home from a dualboot system with windows?08:07
zetherooardchoille: well i would prefer someone with an understanding of WHY it's dangerous would tell me .. :)08:08
steppenwolfyeap08:08
iDopemikesee: u did a dist upgrade?08:08
icerootsteppenwolf: you can install ext3 driver in windows or create something like /share  as vfat08:08
mikeseeiDope: nope08:08
iDopemikesee: since when then?08:08
[deXter]mikesee: irc.spotchat.org and #linuxmint08:08
daroluiceroot: he is asking for recommendations to make new partitions, he intends to dual boot with windows xp08:08
ardchoillezetheroo: The bot maintainers know what they're doing and they're ubuntu devs, so I just thought that was good enough08:08
Myrttizetheroo: redhat and similar use different paths and config options to debian/ubuntu. You might install a package that sets symlinks and directories the wrong way.08:08
mikeseeiDope: just the normal apt-get update && apt-get upgrade08:08
theadminiceroot: steppenwolf: or as NTFS, that should be no problem for not Linux-specific partitions08:09
Jordan_Uzetheroo, Because RPM install / removal scripts assume that you are on a red hat like system for one.08:09
Myrttizetheroo: basically for the same reason, installing debian packages isn't supported either, but with alien there be even more dragons08:09
icerootdarolu: theadmin i just say dont use /home with NTFS08:09
zetherooMyrtti: ok .. and I suppose that these wrong setups would be hard if not impossible to undo ...08:09
iDopemikesee: then i dunno...08:09
soiconhey guys, is it safe now to write on a NTFS part in Linux? some docs say "shouldn't", but I have written files on NTFS from Ubuntu for...2 years I don't see any problem :D xp is still working08:09
Myrttizetheroo: exactly08:09
icerootsteppenwolf: yes08:09
daroluiceroot: I agree08:09
icerootsoicon: yes08:10
Jordan_Usoicon, It's safe.08:10
theadminMyrtti: Huh? "Installing debian packages is not supported"!? Ubuntu is debian-based08:10
jpdssoicon: No, that documentation is old.08:10
ardchoilleMyrtti: Thank you for that info :)08:10
mikeseeiDope: its ok.. ill try #mint on the other network08:10
zetherooMyrtti: ok ... wow ... someone should write a post about the dangers of using alien .. maybe I will ... thanks for the input08:10
iceroottheadmin: but there are difference between debian and ubuntu08:10
Myrttitheadmin: but ubuntu is not debian and there are some small but important differences.08:10
[deXter]zetheroo: It can be dangerous also, because you can end up overriding some libraries with versions that other packages installed in your system depend upon, therby (possibly) breaking tons of packages..08:10
iceroottheadmin: e.g. dependencies for fixed versions08:10
theadminiceroot: Well, uh, I usually see no problems... altough I rarely use debian packages as such, commonly Ubuntu ones are there along with those08:11
iceroottheadmin: some programs are installing different on ubuntu then on debian (phpmyadmin, mediawiki for e.g.)08:11
steppenwolfok so I could make an additional partition to share between the two OS's right?08:11
zetheroo[deXter]: I see .. ok ... well i will have to wait to get my hands on the tar.gz package ;)08:11
steppenwolfand it could be NTFS08:11
theadminsteppenwolf: Yep.08:11
steppenwolfok08:11
steppenwolfthanks a lot!!08:11
jazzis there a freenode channel to talk to a staffer?08:11

soiconmy sister did it lol08:13
jazzMyrtti,  thanks again08:13
^sn00per^zetheroo: why they said its dangerous..  its like you dropping a different motor like Ford into a chevy car..  and you would have to change everything to adapt the motor to accomidate it .. (in layman terms)08:14
zetheroo^sn00per^ : I bit late ;) but I appreciate your input ... and I think I get the idea :P08:15

feisarardchoille: am I right in thinking there is a 'safe-upgrade' that leaves out kernel updates etc?10:18
slnnerhi10:19
slnnerdoes anyone know much bout hellanzb?10:19
DantonicArishi for some reason my ssh server does not start at startup.. so I was thinking to add a command line to execute do you think this is the right approach?10:19
ardchoillefeisar: you might want to use upgrade instead of dist-upgrade but you still need to dist-upgrade now and then in case of kernel exploits. Why teach her how to run the update manager gui?10:19
ardchoille*why not10:19
Jordan_Umeatbun, So were you just trying grub-reboot for kicks or do you actually use it? I'm wondering because there is currently a question of whether default=saved should imply that you also want savedefault, I'd like input from users of grub-reboot / grub-set-default.10:19
Cappyfolks, ive installed xchat-gnome and was wondering if there is any way to make to act like the old school xchat? or do i just install the other one?10:19
slnnerk well ill spit it out, unrar and par have bad permission in /usr/bin and im not sure what they should be...in order for a program to execute them.10:20
Dantonic!init.d10:20
ardchoillefeisar: if you do dist-upgrade and the kernel is upgraded, the system needs to be restarted anyway to use the new kernel. You shold probably just teach er how to use the update manager gui10:21
feisarardchoille: the user is partially sighted and I don't think will ever be able to execute tasks like that unaided. I wanted to get security updates done automatically then I will pop round every month or so and manually update10:21
ardchoillefeisar: the update manager has a setting to install security updates automatically10:21
Grgein cron how should i run sh script, as I do it via command line (/home/grge/path/to/script) ?10:22
feisarardchoille: I know, but the problem with that is you cannot specify a time and her bandwidth is limited between 9-610:22
Jordan_UGrge, Yes10:22
ARishiDantonic: I don't know about that much, but I do know that you should try the rc.local file. Read about that.10:23
uyjhgjhkgUndeleting a file, there is no process holding the file open. I've googled. What are the best-practice steps10:23
Jordan_Ufeisar, You could apt-get upgrade -d to download the updates automatically but not install them10:23

ubottuuyjhgjhkg: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel10:24
uyjhgjhkgshould have a standard characters at the beginning, I've read about going into single user mode... blah blah. But there is NOTHING that is written in a definitive way10:24

Grgehow can I debug cron script, cause it is correctly executed via command line, but it doesn't work in corn10:25

Dantonichow do I get ssh server to start at startup? ubuntu 9.1010:26
Grge10 10 * * * /path/to/script10:26
uyjhgjhkgFirst link is pointless, this is undelete not data recovery10:26
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, ext4, which since it uses extends *might* make recovery easier.10:26
ardchoilleGrge 10 10 * * * sh /path/to/script10:26
Grgescript however uses ssh to send some files to ftp, my user have certicate installed, but do cron task is run as me ?10:26
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, why isn't this a science?10:27
Grgeif you know what I mean10:27
Grgethis should be a real queston in fact10:27
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, I have a disk, a controller, a file system, a clean install - this is science, not maybe's and ifs. I just deleted the file. Yes you can say maybe it was overwritten, THAT IS ALL.10:27
Dantonicshouldn't the ssh script located in etc/init.d/ automatically start?10:27
uyjhgjhkgI want the rest of it to be 100%, YES we can access the filsystem to see unlinked data.10:27
Grgecause task is run I just checked it10:27

Jordan_Umeatbun, Do you know what savedefault functionality is?10:28

uyjhgjhkg"The complete Changelog with the possibility to download all released versions opens in a new window when clicking this link. " rather than have "change log / download" as a link. Seriously. painful10:30
Jordan_Umeatbun, Savedefault saves whatever menu entry you choose manually at boot to be the default entry at next boot.10:30
meatbun savedefault=false  <---oh.. needs to be true inside menu.lst10:31
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, I think these scripts are worthless10:31
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, If I can work out the beginning bytes / last bytes of a file, how can I get into a mode that looks for and recovers that data?10:31
meatbunJordan_U: i am looking at my grub menu.lst now10:31
uyjhgjhkg"In order to ensure that ext3 can safely resume an unlink after a crash, it actually zeros out the block pointers in the inode, whereas ext2 just marks these blocks as unused in the block bitmaps and marks the inode as "deleted" and leaves the block pointers alone. Your only hope is to "grep" for parts of your files that have been deleted and hope for the best."10:32
uyjhgjhkgWrong. "Dear interested person, to undelete a file, you need to grep for content in that file, here is how"10:32

chipgeriit looks like php cli is not configured with php-curl   because i am able to run php samples on apache but getting curl_init() error on commandline samples..can anybody help me?10:32
uyjhgjhkgardchoille, I'll see, I think I can recover this. It is pointless having any file system without a recovery tool. It makes tools like shred redundant, it isn't worth anything10:33
uyjhgjhkgIt just obscures things that are really there. no security10:33
Seveaschipgeri, look in /etc/php :)10:33
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, Part of Unix philosophy is that it trust that the user knows what they are doing.10:33
uyjhgjhkgIt sounds like it actually sacrifices performance to ensure this obscurity10:33
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, It's not supposed to be a security feature10:33
ardchoilleuyjhgjhkg: deleting a file has nothing to do with security, it has to do with freeing up space that the system can use again10:33
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, Re-read the sentence you quoted.10:34
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, part of my philosophy is to trust that the filesystem writter knew what he was doing, capische?10:34
uyjhgjhkgobviously they didn't10:34
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, I KNOW. I was deliberately coming back in case someone quoted security10:34
chipgeri <Seveas> what should i check there?10:34
uyjhgjhkgthere is no need to obfuscate content like that10:34
Seveaschipgeri, the configfiles :-)10:34
uyjhgjhkgardchoille, I agree, I was imagining someone else woudl bring up security as a counterargument to what I was saying10:34
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, "In order to ensure that ext3 can safely resume an unlink after a crash..."10:34
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, does that actually mean anything?10:35
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, Yes10:35
uyjhgjhkgI don't think so10:35
uyjhgjhkgReally10:35
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, Yes10:35

Fill23Hi, need help with custom resolution setup, when i'm trying this 'xrandr --addmode 1280x960' i get this error: http://pastebin.org/9580310:37
Jordan_Uuyjhgjhkg, If you are unlinking a file and you lose power the file system needs to be able to recover in a way that keeps the file system consistent, zeroing the block pointers is part of how ext3 ensures this.10:37
uyjhgjhkgardchoille, I was just correcting his misunderstanding of what I said re security, I appreciate your concern though.10:37
uyjhgjhkgJordan_U, setting an unused block would do the exact same thing10:38
=== outer_space_ is now known as outer_space
uyjhgjhkgin recovery, 000 block pointers and 0 used pointers can trigger the same code block10:38
uyjhgjhkgtherefore the same 0's and 1's go through the CPU10:38
uyjhgjhkgtherefore it is the same10:38

stdiseaselearst, check the old version of python 'python --version' and try to install the same version on the ne13:14
stdiseaselearst, new pc13:14
stdiseaselearst, if the problem is still there or if versions are the same, head over to #python they might have a better way to troubleshoot your problem13:15
learststdisease, well the python that came with this ubuntu is 2.6. Do you really think it's a python thing? Or can i try disabling the buffer overflow thing? is it the end of my PC life if i disable it?13:15
Dr_WillisYou can install earlier verisons of pytohon if you wanted to13:16
ibuclawlearst, buffer overflows are a software/application issue. ;) And python code between versions doesn't really keep backwards compatibility.13:16
stdiseaselearst, a buffer overflow is a bug, it's not a feature you enable and disable so that's not very meaningful. What you can do is try installing 'python2.5' and run the script with 'python2.5 <yourscript.py>'13:17

learststdisease, ok i might not know much bout python. But the script is quite simple and all it does is call 3 programs to run. all 3 programmes generate output files. however only 1 program didn't and the terminate msg points out that program and not the python script.

jester_hi all, i have a weee bit of a problem. I just upgraded to lucid and formatted all my partitions, except /home. after the install, I say that my home directory was empty except for .Private - I also see a symlink for .ecryptfs -> /var/lib/ecryptfs/jester which is now gone after the upgrade. Is there  way for me to get my data back?13:22
candybanDr_Willis, I know what it is :p13:22

learstinvader, what do u mean by appending strace before python. i don't think i've heard of it13:22
Dr_Williscandyban:  that wasent for you. :P13:22
Lord-Readmanand also http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/23594/13:22
Dr_Williscandyban:  raid over tcp/ip seems like a neat trick however13:23
candybanDr_Willis, I can't seem to install it using the regular m-a nor with the command in the README13:23
ibuclawLeoneof, ah, OK. First I'd try the device on another OS first. If you still get the same results, could be a hardware issue.13:23
candybanDr_Willis, it is working on Debian which are all my other servers (it's my first Ubuntu server)13:24
luismendesstdisease, can you give me any directions?13:24
Leoneofibuclaw: but i tried with Windows, it is work fine13:24
stdiseaseluismendes, I can give you a ready made small shell script I wrote once, or you can use the package linux-igd13:25
helloyvstdisease, unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts?  this happens after i compile a new kernel,but i don't know what's wrong13:25
stdiseaseluismendes, linux-igd would do it all for you AND set up UPnP as well. Unless you're trying to learn iptables of course13:25
=== Guest11795 is now known as isp
Dr_Willishelloyv:  i would guess you dident build the fs modules needed.. or dident include them into the kernel.13:26
stdiseasehelloyv, so the exact error message you see is 'unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts' ? After what command does it show that?13:26
ibuclawLeoneof, what type of device is it? USB mouse? other?13:27
sdhu13:28
Leoneofibuclaw: is there are conflicts with VirtualBox? because when i run VirtualBox, Ubuntu will detect and run USB13:28

Dr_WillisLeoneof:  ive had the issues without vbox being installed.. but ive not paid much attention to it.13:32
Dr_WillisLeoneof:  could be some vbox bug i guess13:32
learsthm, well can anyone tell me whether it's ok to disable "buffer overflow" which terminates a programme i wish to run. And if so, how do i disable it?13:33
LeoneofDr_Willis: i see, maybe vbox can make auto mount for USB, could be helpful, lol13:33
Dr_WillisLeoneof:  when running vbox it WORKS? or it breaks?13:33
stdiseasehelloyv, well you'll have to recompile the kernel with the feature disabled, you can either it find and disable it from the menuconfig or edit the .config file directly and comment it out, also make sure the file system modules for all your partitions are selected13:33
krambiorixhi guys, i would like to downgrade php on my ubuntu box, how can i do that?13:34

Dr_Willislearst:  how are you going to disable that buffer overflow?13:34
nibblerhelloyv: so your kernel boots etc, not too bad for a start - i read something about sys before, /sys has some stuff in it? mount /sys output?13:34
Dr_WillisLeoneof:  that is weird.13:34
abhi_navI want to talk to a person who have practically exported mail from thunderbird.13:34
stdiseaselearst, what's the program triggering the overflow?13:34
learstDr_willis: i dunno. i was jusat asking if it's okay to do so. And how to do it.13:34
nibblerlearst: buffer overflow is a programming error, so its a bug in the program..... try getting a newer or even an older version13:34

stdiseaseRanyAlbeg, usually backups or temporary files automatically created by applications like text editors, etc..13:37
learstnibbler, sorry. i'm nont that familiar with programming, memoryt etc. so i'm not exactly sure what is "buffer overflow".13:37
nibblerlearst: it is a bug in the program, thats not subject for discussion, its just the very clear interpretation of the message you gave us. can be this version, can be your version of used libraries etc.13:37
abhi_navkrambiorix: i dont thing there is any automated tool to downgrade someting. just unintall current version and install old one13:37

candybankarmic13:38
RanyAlbegstdisease: can i use them to restore the original file after i remove it?13:38
nibblerlearst: it means the programmer prepared the program to load a variable of lets say 120 bytes, but then at runtime the program tries to load 150 bytes - buffer overflow, end of program13:38
krambiorixow thx Dr_Willis13:38

Dr_Willisgerry__:  thers the find tool and -R or was it -r for recursive changes14:11
erUSULgerry__: chown user -R folder14:12
gerry__Dr_Willis: so you're saying I could pipe find somehow into chown?14:12
Dr_Willisgerry__:  find has such a feature14:13
Dr_Willisgerry__:  no need for a pipe :)14:13
GeoniI want to set a PC as a server. on the PC running Ubuntu 9.10 and samba. I want to set up samba, that smb.conf file so that if I have 2 Windows users accessing the data to be stored on this server one of them to have access both to his files and on the other, and the other only his own, without access to files belonging to the first. I want to make data access only with password. What should contain smb.conf file? Can you help?14:13
DJ_HaMsTaadifire it worked. i removed 2 of the drives that are made into RAID mirror. The ubuntu drive is set up as main drive this is odd14:13
gerry__erUSUL: yes but that would change all files to be owned by the new user, not just ones owned by user x14:13
erUSULgerry__: then use find like Dr_Willis said14:13
gerry__Dr_Willis: thanks, I'll take a look14:13
gerry__erUSUL: cheers, will do14:13
bfrimy internal mic stopped working when i installed ubuntu any suggestions14:14

mattgyverHey guys, im installing ubuntu on a 40gb solid state drive.  I really only want to install the core system and a handful of applications onto the SSD however.  Whats the best way to go about this (ie which directories would be a must on the SSD), thanks.14:17
AleJandroque tal estais marikoes=14:17
AleJandro??14:17
Dr_Willismattgyver:  a full normal install is only like 5gb. you can put /home/ somewhere else if you wanted and you may want to put /var somewhere else.. but then what are you going to do with the 35gb left on the sdd. :)14:18
* abhi_nav help14:18
nowonmaimattgyver: /boot/ /bin/ /etc/ /dev/ /sbin/ /proc/ /sys/ /lib/ would probably cover the basics, put the rest elsewhere14:19
mattgyverDr_Willis: haha good call, i guess i just dont wanna fill up the drive.  My current installation was about 50 gigs so i dont wanna run out of room soon and i have about a 500GB of storage space on other drives.14:19
tommiswhat is the best program for html coding?14:19
tommisi would wanna try something different than blueshift14:19
mattgyverDr_Willis: of course the 50 gigs wasnt all ubuntu14:19
nowonmaimattgyver: best solution is to put /home/ /var/ /usr/ and /opt/ somewhere else and the rest on your ssd14:19
abhi_navhi14:20

ikoniaadifire: put a group ownership on the shared secriotn, and make both users a member, then put owner permissons on the locked directory for one user14:21
Dr_Willisadifire:  the 'samba-doc' package has several books on the topic. One book is samba by example (i think) that has such example/case  setups.14:22
Dr_Willisadifire:  you can make shares shared on a 'per user' basis  but i rarely do that14:22
adifireikonia, Dr_Willis it's not for me it's for Geoni, but thanks neways!! :D14:22

melchiormy pc(192.168.0.2) is connected to a switch(supposed to be 192.168.0.1), which is connected to a dev board(192.168.0.3). From my pc i can ping the dev board, and in the other way, but i can't ping my switch ! How is that possible14:24
melchiorknowing that I could days ago14:24
Dr_Willismelchior:  Hmm you mean a 'router'  - I didtnt think a switch had an ip.14:25
lukjad86is anyone here familiar with ksplice? I'm planning on writing an article on it and would like some documentation.14:25
melchiorno it's a switch, but it has a webserver embedded in it for administration purpose14:25
Dr_WillisHmm.. I have to wonder what admin stuff a switch needs.. or else the term 'switch' is being used a little too loosely14:26

melchiorim at work now, and using it14:28
umangopengyan, I'm guessing /var/cache/apt/archives14:29
Dr_Williskoltroll:  from what ive seen. if you have a small list of bookmarks it does show up right under places.. if you got more.. it makes a bookmarks menu to keep them in14:29
opengyanumang:thx14:29
umangopengyan, You welcome. :)14:30
umang*your14:30
koltrollDr_Willis, Right you were! I removed some bookmarks and now it shows under "Places". Then it's all good for now, until I get more bookmarks :)14:30

opengyanis there a list of packages which one has to install after a fresh installation ?14:30
opengyanspecially for sw developer + music14:31
Dr_WillisKottisen:  i saw a neat tool the other day that let you have a panel applet for shortcuts all over the place. for easy access.14:31
umangopengyan, "has to" would mean for functionality or for recovering your previous install?14:31
opengyanfunctionality14:32
francoHello I want to know whether any programs similar to 'teamviewer' to ubuntu14:32
Dr_WillisKottisen:  but i cant find its name/icon now. :()14:32
umangopengyan, Usually a fresh install would work well. ;) If you want to see what packages you've installed apart from the default (and without dependencies that confuse you), deborphan is a great program. Install it and try a deborphan -a. You'll get a list off all packages you've installed apart from the default.14:33
DS1how do you use directory GUI as sudo14:33
umangopengyan, I'm not sure if that was what you were looking for though...14:33

mikebeechamis there anyone here who would be able to help me set up a VPN on Karmic?  I have experiencing connection  issues16:09
DasEiAllucard: looks to me like a faulty cdrom, and usb-lives need some practice to be set up properly, you can use unetbooting from windows , md5sum the iso, then check stick on another box, re.try16:09
robinleerUSUL: /dev/root / ext2 rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 016:09

jonzbccwasutton3_: you could just serve that file. or if you're not too huge on security (maybe its an intranet) you can just symlink to the file from inside of your webroot16:10
robinleerUSUL: /dev/xvda2      /             ext3     defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 016:10

Abu-3dnanDasEi, how can I tell ubuntu not to run X on boot time?16:10
robinleI only added "usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0"16:11
Dr_WillisAbu-3dnan:  disable the gdm service16:11
jonzbccAbu-3dnan: it doesn't run X (unless its a live CD) -- it runs XDM (a login manager)16:11
PiciAbu-3dnan: sudo update-rc.d gdm remove16:11
wasutton3_jonzbcc: will it constantly update? or will it just be a static page that i will have to reload?16:11
erUSULrobinle: very weird ... what type of device is /dev/xvda2 ?16:11
Abu-3dnanty all16:11
ibuclawjonzbcc, had a quick look, Debian uses /etc/init.d/rc to control runlevel scripts. Ubuntu uses /etc/init/rc.conf to interface to it.16:11
jonzbccwasutton3_: well, I suggestd two separate options. which one are you talking about?16:12
Dr_WillisI think 9.10 uses Upstart to start GDM.16:12
robinleerUSUL: well it's a virtual disk in a XEN vps16:12
DasEiAbu-3dnan: boot safemode16:12
ibuclawjonzbcc, but how these scripts get started in the first place is done by /sbin/init16:12
DasEiAbu-3dnan: or permanently remove gdm16:12
ibuclaw(which is started by the Linux kernel itself)16:12
wasutton3_jonzbcc: i think i would encounter the same problem with either16:12
jonzbccibuclaw: (you meant _used_ rc.conf?)16:12
jonzbcc!symlink | jonzbcc16:13
ubottujonzbcc, please see my private message16:13
erUSULrobinle: ok; really dunno what can be the problem. i would check boot up messages if possible16:13
robinleerUSUL: I've only got remote access16:13
robinleare these logged?16:13
ibuclawjonzbcc, _uses_ - the rc.conf is part of upstart's interface16:13
DasEimana ?16:13
erUSULrobinle: check /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog16:14
arvind_khadrirobinle, yes, /var/log/syslog16:14
jonzbccwasutton3_: (i was testing if the bot could tell you about symlinks) -- sym links are like shortcuts to the actual file. so you if you add a symlink inside of your webroot (that points to the actual log file) then its the _actual_ file -- there is not updating it.16:14
wasutton3_jonzbcc: i know, but what i want is like a live feed on the web page without having to reboot16:14
wasutton3_*refresh16:14
ZykoticK9Abu-3dnan, if you are using Karmic and want to disable GDM from starting you can use "sudo mv /etc/init/gdm.conf  /etc/init/gdm.conf-disabled" - to undo just reverse16:14
jonzbccibuclaw: hmm, I don't see an rc.conf on this machine, lol16:14

mikebeechamI am seeing "connection failed" error messages when trying to set up a VPN...can anyone help?16:17
wasutton3_jonzbcc: thats what i was thinking too, seems to be a little bit easier to manage than a completely different program16:17
DasEimanas ?16:17
robinleerUSUL or arvind_khadri : any idea what might be causing this?16:18
jonzbccwasutton3_: you should read up on symlinking though -- its fairly unsafe. a better way would be to have a "tmp_copy_log" sitting in side the web root, and that tmp file would be overwritten frequently by a cronned script (a _very_ simple script) that just cats the contents of the original log into the temp16:19
arvind_khadrirobinle, has the fs on xvda properly setup ? try running a fsck on it, and then mount16:19

jonzbcc wasutton3_ :) hope it works for you16:25
arvind_khadrirobinle, just restart the machine, before doing that just do << touch /forcefsck >>16:26
jonzbccwasutton3_: actually, new thought: instead of burdening your machine with a constant cron (when people might not even be visiting the web page) -- you can make a plain html doc, with a frame inside of it -- have the frame inside be an actual php doc in the same directory. Now, the outter frame will have javscript that will reload the php doc inside the frame every x seconds. this way all the fetching/copying/pasting is done by a php doc -- a16:27

phh45DasEi: gnome-baker crashed many times. Growisofs failed with i/o-error (okey, the iso was larger than 4 GB). But in the mean time I was _quick enough_ to hit burn button in Nautilus iso-burning (I had burned a couple of isos to my disk for testing purposes) after inserting again and again the DVD+RW. Very good trick! :)16:31

ibuclawking_pin, if security is not of the essence. fdisk should do to setup the partition table. Then you can use mkfs to format the partition into the filesystem you want.16:31
jonzbccjonathan_: using lamp probably isn't useless - but its uber easy, here's the tutorial: go to synaptic package manager16:31
jonathan_yes i know16:31
ibuclawking_pin, if you prefer easy - use gparted instead.16:32
jonzbccjonathan_: then check off "install" for the following packages: 'mysql-server' 'php5' 'apache2' 'phpmyadmin' -- during the install process you'll be asked questions (primarily what psasword you'd like to use) -- that's it.16:32
robinlearvind_khadri: it might have just died on me :D16:32
jonzbccjonathan_: then you can go to your web browser and type: http://localhost/ and you should get a, "it works!" page. if so, you can find that html document in /var/www/index.html16:32
arvind_khadrirobinle, hahaha, what happened?16:33
jonathan_yes I've got all the packages and the things you said, but i need some infos on how to configure (mainly apache) the server now.16:33
robinlewell my vps panel says it's powerd up16:33
jonathan_aah ok.16:33
robinlehowever ssh is dead16:33
robinlerefused connection16:33
jonathan_could you tell me please, where the config file for apache lies? I mean where i can configure the default path to the web-directory?16:34
jonzbccjonathan_: so you're serving okay right now? -- to configure apache you can edit the files in /etc/apache2 (primarily apache.conf file) -- and also play with modules for apache with: a2enmod16:34
arvind_khadrirobinle, yeah it will be dead :) you need to wait till the system goes up :) ...be patient16:34
jonathan_thank you very much :)16:34
gregghi all - WEIRD problem here. I run ubuntu karmic as a media server where all my mp3's are, the locale is en_DK.UTF-8 - right now I'm on my Kubuntu karmic laptop, same locale as the server, but samba'ing to my mp3 folder shows question marks instead of utf-8 characters. Any idea what the problem could be?16:34
robinlearvind_khadri: you think it will recover from this?16:34
jonzbccjonathan_: this is always been my best resource, the actual apache documentation: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/configuring.html16:35
arvind_khadrirobinle, just a guess...not sure...16:35
robinlehehe okay, I'll give it some time :)16:35
ibuclawrobinle, can the server be pinged ?16:35
erUSULgregg: probably samba is messing things up. see what options are used to mount/export the samba shares ?16:35
jonzbccjonathan_: i missed your question before, in order to configure the default path, I usually do the following (but you should backup these files first, as I do this purely as something i figured out, not because I ever read it was the right wayto do it) -- :16:35
robinlearvind_khadri: ooh it does respond to ping16:36
greggerUSUL: hmmm just mount -t cifs16:36
arvind_khadrirobinle, yeah, but the ssh service needs to be up to connect to it...16:36
greggerUSUL: that's probably bad, right? ;)16:36
erUSULgregg: probably you need to pass an apropiate nls option16:36
jonzbccjonathan_: I go to /etc/apache2 then I run: grep -ir 'var/www' ./*    -- this will should you all the occurances of the string "var/www" in all the available config files. then you can edit those files with your favorite editor (eg.: gksu gedit ./apache2.conf, or sudo vi ./apache2.conf) -- then use your editor to replace all the instances of /var/www with /your/new/path -- remember BACKUP these files before you edit them (maybe, simply copy 16:37
mattishhello16:38
greggerUSUL: sounds about right - you know what I need to do off the top of your head while i'm googling? ;)16:38

Jordan_Upuxl, For some reason /etc/init.d/grub-common isn't being run. That usually means that booting into Ubuntu failed.17:53

steegojonez, do i need a hard link?17:53

puxlJordan_U: oh. I'm posting from ubuntu right now17:54
steegojonez, yep17:54
Jordan_Upuxl, Try running "sudo service grub-common start". That should clear the recordfail from grubenv.17:54
jonezsteego, how odd. I'm sure it's something simple.. but if your permissions are right, you can execute the py file directly, and you also get an error when you specify an absolute path, I'm not sure what else to suggest17:54

jonezsteego, ok. please let me know what you did to fix it17:56
puxlJordan_U, the recordfail is gone17:56
Jordan_Upuxl, The idea is that /etc/init.d/grub-common is supposed to run at boot and record that Ubuntu has booted successfully. If it doesn't for whatever reason then grub assumes that the last boot failed and therefore shows you the menu to allow you to choose older kernels / rescue mode.17:56

colombianUby: There we go - I wonder why it's so hard to find the linux install18:45
ZykoticK9SuperUser|David, so most likely it is either Compiz or Metacity -- i don't know of a way to check, you could try switching to the other one if you wished "metacity --replace" or "compiz --replace"18:45

jabalsadHi guys, i'm hoping you might give me some help here. I tried the proprietary ATI radeon drivers for my mobility radeon hd 3650, but it crashes X everytime i boot, requiring me to delete xorg.conf... so now i'm trying to use the open source ubuntu ati drivers, but i'm not sure i can get it working. after following the support site, i should type 'glxinfo' and it should work, but instead i get a "BadRequest"18:45
colombianUby: Hmm - would reinstalling get rid of all my settings?18:45

chinnyHey all - sory if this is a long one but I've got a very weird one - am hoping someone can help me out. I've got an Ubuntu 8.10 server (in VMware Esx) running with the Enhanced vmxnet nic. The VMware tools are installed and am able to ping internal and external IPs (it's got a NAT), however.....I cannot resolve IPs at all nor connect to the webserver on it (Apache2) or sshd. I don't even get a login prompt. I have run nmap at it and the ports are listening.18:48
chinnyThe DNS server I'm using is working - have proven that from another host. I've even tried changing to the google public dns server (8.8.8.8) which I can ping fine but they won't work either.18:48
chinnyI've removed the original nic and added a new one - redone the static config for the new nic and get exactly the same. I've even recompiled and re-installed the VMware tools but no joy. Have checked /etc/hosts /etc/resolv.conf and they check out ok. Am running out of ideas now....can anyone suggest anything?18:48

jpdsjudget: Define them in /etc/fstab.19:40
recon69_laphmm, odd, working now. was getting an empty window. think there must of been as hidden instance of it somewhere19:40
PingFloydjudget: also see the auto and noauto option in man mount19:41
judgethmmm i just wanted them for my login19:42
judgeti was thinking bash.rc or something19:42
PingFloydjudget: if you want to be able to mount from a regular user, you'll need to declare in the fstab19:42
darrendhello.. I have a USB device (ums) not auto mounting when plugged.  syslog shows kernel messages up to "waiting for device to settle.." then nothing.  Restarting hald hasn't helped.. any ideas?19:43
PingFloydjudget: you can have it not automatically mount though in the fstab19:43
judgetright now i just use the line sshfs myserver.net:/ ~/myserver19:43

RfooTfooLoonatic, i have an nv gfx card and a trident. the nv card is working dual heads now properly. the trident card which is pci is not.19:53
Chousukeardian: that doesn't sound like a very good idea.19:53
wrapsteradambuntu: i already did.19:53
RfooTfoowanna see config?19:53
ardianChousuke, its for a special user19:53
adambuntuwrapster, k give me a sec to look at your question19:53
Chousukeardian: perhaps you should just make a symlink from the user's home folder to the dir19:54
LoonaticRfooTfoo: yah pastebin it please19:54
RfooTfoohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/382451/19:54

wrapsterhere is my question.19:54
SMELTNhello all. I have a question. I really want to use UNR but I have an HP Pavillion DV6408nr which has an AMD proc. Is there anyway to get UNR using this laptop?19:54
adambuntuwrapster, what exactly are you trying to accomplish?19:54
meowagihow can i start an X11 remote session and keep it running in the background if  the connection drops or i log-off?19:54
Luciderhi all I have a backup drive i want to verify files on the back up as files on my disk with md5 is there a program that i choose 2 folders and it compares them and subfolders automatcally19:55
meowagilucider use rsync19:55
LoonaticRfooTfoo: do you get any error msg when you try to do dual  ?19:55
meowagiand use par219:55
wrapsteri dont want it to continiously keep sending message to syslog19:55
meowagilucider: Rsync19:55
RfooTfooLoonatic, I am running dual now. and no I havent seen any. weird.19:55
meowagiyou dont need any md5 with it, it compares ever file for changes, so they always get in sync19:56
wrapsteradambuntu: so i want to permanently set the --bin-interface option ..so that Its not reported.. But there is no manpage availble to know how to set it.19:56
adambuntuwrapster, that is getting a bit over my head in ubuntu. maybe someone else will answer, but if not, keep trying because someone who knows that info will be on here...19:56
LoonaticRfooTfoo: you seem to have figured out something that i didn't on my system..19:56
Lucidermeowagi it syncs files not verify them and tell me the changed files19:56
wrapsteradambuntu: ok.. thanks19:56
meowagilucider: then use par219:56
meowagiit generates verification files19:57
meowagior quicksfv or something19:57

usuario_olaaa19:58
usuario_putones19:58
meowagiyou can use rsync and it tells you automaticly if changes happened, but without resync it19:58

LoonaticRfooTfoo: aren't we all newb :)19:58
AethelredI'm running 9.04/amd64. I used to have an icon in my panel (menu bar), towards the right, showing my (wireless) network status. It even had a little animation for when I connected. That icon is gone. What do I have to do to put it back there?19:58
RfooTfooLoonatic, what kind of card are you running in ya box at work?19:58
MyrttiAethelred: press alt-f2, write in the dialog that pops up nm-applet19:59
treats-home"tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors"  I just got that error when making a tar backup.  Is that an error?19:59

RfooTfooya know Im pretty pissed about this whole pandora thing with only 40 hrs of music per month..wtf19:59
LoonaticRfooTfoo: ATI FireMV 2250 with a freaking dongle for split...... i believe this is my issue..19:59
treats-home"error code 0" would have been a different answer.19:59
AethelredMyrtti: yah, ok. Did that. I get nothing.20:00
RfooTfooLoonatic, Ive seen the dongle work on rare occasions, I would certainly go for a card with dual outputs! and stick with the ATI!20:00
RfooTfooLoonatic, and when I say rare occasions I mean on winblows.20:00

benjasAethelred, well type the first one, hit enter, then type that.20:03
AethelredYah. I'm pretty familiar with the command line  :)20:04
meowagii still wonder why you don't use par2, so you can always repair your files if something is broken20:04
AethelredBut the process by which things appear or disappear in the menu bar is completely opaque.20:04
benjasAethelred, any joy? :D20:04

Turbolinuxguntbert I selected three different servers (one is Ubuntu's main server) but it didn't fix the problem. I know the way of course.21:02

zagabarnibbler: Now I got this: http://pastebin.com/n2Y6Tfru21:24
neurochromeGuest19751, because you haven't setup port forwarding on your router?21:24
ubuntu_Guest19751, you will need alter the config of you router.21:24
bastidrazorGuest19751: the ports apache is using need to be port forwarded.. also many ISP's block port 80  so one can not have  a server on the standard port21:25
nibblerzagabar: ok, but it tells you how to do it, move the ! in front of the dash21:25

nibblerzagabar: sorry, dont have all the syntax ready here - and am not 100% positive if it will fix your problem anyway ;-)21:25
neurochromeGuest19751, you need to tell incoming net traffic (port 80 by default) that it is to point to your machine on your home network (whatever IP that machine has)21:25
ubuntu_bastidrazor, Guest19751,  my ISP does block port 80 (http:) but not 403 (https:)21:26

Guest19751hmm ill have a look but not sure my router is capable of this21:26

neurochromeGuest19751, so you might want the router to point incoming port 80 traffic to the network machine 192.168.0.100 (if that is the static ip of the server on your home network)21:27
bastidrazorGuest19751: portfoward.com will aid you21:27

bastidrazorneurochrome: once the ports were correctly forwarded then yes, this site would check his server from outside his network doing exactly what you suggested21:32

nibblerzagabar: well, tcpdump -i $interface_you_use_to_come_in -n   - then connect, then put in rule and connect again, nopaste output21:37
neurochromebastidrazor, touche... it pains me to say this but... you are right, I am wrong.21:38
Traveler1do i config ports for forword on the server side of the putty side will need to request them over the ssh21:38
blakkheimzagabar: man tcpdump21:38
reactor16is there command that monitor prossess and run it if is down ?21:38
reactor16or keep it running21:39
BellinXFelonhey i have an external hdd and after a certain period of time the contents of the drive become inaccessible, as if it unmounts itself, can anyone help?21:39
neurochromereactor16, you could check that a process is running with a bash script and if it sin't launch it21:39
tucemiuxi'm wondering how stable is NTFS support on partimage?  I want to back up my NTFS partition in case my hard drive hoses21:39
reactor16neurochrome where i can get such script ?21:40
joneztucemiux, one thing you could do is try and find the 'bug tracker' for the package, and see how many bugs are open.21:40
DasEiBellinXFelon: check /var/log/syslog21:40
neurochromereactor16, (cough) write one?... there may be one somewhere on the web though21:41
bastidrazorneurochrome: learning is the point here :)21:41
BellinXFelonDasEi : in terminal21:41
neurochromebastidrazor, I completely overlooked that remote login is not port 80... doh!21:41
DasEiBellinXFelon: open terminal:  gedit /var/log/syslog21:41
Defense|TwinHi, anyone can tell me how i can install a kernel 2.6.32 or 2.6.33 for ubuntu 9.10?21:42
bastidrazorTraveler1: the remote server would need to have ssh listening on another port and also putty would need to be directed at that port.21:42
BellinXFelonDasEi: ok gedit is open21:42
bastidrazorneurochrome: port 80 can be used for a remote login but is not set as the standard port by default in routers. normally 8080 is or 1080.21:43
DasEiBellinXFelon: look at the timestamps and check when this occured, any messages ? besides can also look in /var/log/messages (just also open in gedit to view)21:43
hapikhi, I'm newbie as to networking. I'm pinging windows machine via wifi ad-hoc connection - it's ok. Now, trying sftp user@ip gives me nothing. Should I start a ftp server on windows to be able to send a file?21:44
erUSULDefense|Twin: any reason you need a newer kernel ? (btw 33 is not out yet)21:44
Defense|TwinerUSUL: its some kind of long story:21:44

erUSULDefense|Twin: there are some ppa that will offer a newer kernel.21:45
neurochromebastidrazor, yeah I'm with sky and it took me months to realise that my server _was_ working just not when I tested it at home... it took pointing my 3g phone at the ip to realise (after countless calls to sky customer service who are about as useful as a chocolate teapot)21:45

Goes all the way to the login screen and then when I try to log in, computer or goes black with cursor (Failsafe GNOME, terminal available), or loads for some seconds and goes back to the login screen. a -- oh my god what magic is this. I mess around with the terminal and next time it boots up perfectly. Amazing.23:46

ChewbieHello.  Ubuntu 9.10 newbie here!  Just installed 9.10 on my PB G4, just setted defaultos=macosx in yaboot.  My mac's fan is running non stop, not sure what is going on.  What's going on?23:57
adambuntuChewbie, probably power management23:58
PrimerHi,  have a newly installed, fully updated 9.10 system that's issuing so many DHCP requests that the network counters have already rolled over twice since booting not long ago. I had to disabled ipv6 to get rid of these errors: "eth0: IPv6 duplicate address detected!" which was flooding the logs. Thoughts?23:58
Chewbiethanks adam, i'll check it out!23:59
Primernm shows "Auto eth0", which presumably accounts for the DHCP traffic23:59
