| chrism | Anyone have any idea why IcedTea would keep using ALSA for output even when it's set to use Pulse? | 00:00 |

| maxjezy | hiexpo, it's a bit complexed | 00:00 |
| mrbucket | So, I just submitted https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/530353 as a bug. Has anyone run into this issue in addition to myself? | 00:00 |

| Maimster | BluesKaj-Laptop I might get lucky. I just loaded it now let's see can it find the other drive. Which is not mounted. | 00:02 |
| hodge | actionParsnip, does ubuntu vome with Crypt::OpenSSL::Bignum? | 00:02 |
| actionParsnip | maxjezy: can you give details | 00:02 |
| actionParsnip | hodge: not sure what that is | 00:02 |
| maxjezy | actionParsnip, i need someone to confirm if it's wrong on my computer or if it's on anyone elses to | 00:02 |
| bong904 | how to switch eth0 to eth1 | 00:02 |
| mrbucket | hodge: you can always search packages.ubuntu.com for the package | 00:02 |
| actionParsnip | maxjezy: are you at the install stage? | 00:03 |
| mrbucket | bong904: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistant-net.rules or something like that | 00:03 |
| brjann | hodge: no, it doesn't. see package libcrypt-openssl-bignum-perl | 00:03 |

| mrbucket | Has anyone had issues with multiple interfaces and networks on Ubuntu 9.10 when it comes to the way the kernel handles requests to the non-local subnet? i.e. host on 192.168.1.1 can ping server eth0 192.168.1.2 but not server eth2 192.168.2.2 | 00:06 |
| Losha | mrbucket: My first guess would be to suspect that the routing table isn't configured correctly... | 00:07 |
| mrbucket | losha: it is configured correctly. the machine receives the packets, however doesnt generate a response on any interface. | 00:08 |

| tonyyarusso | I installed Google Earth via the builder package on Ubuntu 9.10, and it installed fine, but when I run it the display flickers like crazy. Any idea how to fix this? | 00:08 |
| od3n_ | what the command to changes the rigths to a folder? | 00:08 |
| od3n_ | or file | 00:08 |
| tonyyarusso | od3n_: chown and chmod | 00:08 |

| od3n_ | ahh yeah so will I need the full path to do that as well | 00:09 |
| mrbucket | od3n_: /bin/chmod? | 00:09 |
| mrbucket | od3n_: should be in your $PATH | 00:09 |
| Losha | mrbucket: I stand corrected, looks like a bug... | 00:09 |
| mrbucket | losha: well, I submitted that. But, I wasnt sure if other people agreed that it could be a bug. | 00:09 |
| meatbun | does live cd comes with dd? | 00:10 |
| mrbucket | meatbun: i imagine it does | 00:10 |
| * Thunder_star will return shortly | 00:11 | |
| * Thunder_star has returned | 00:11 | |

| Thunder_star | john wittle r u still there | 00:11 |
| mrbucket | meatbun: well, dd comes in busybox which comes in a ton of embedded software so id be surprised if it wasnt on the livecd. | 00:12 |

| mrbucket | losha: yeah. whats the usual timeframe for that kind of thing? | 00:12 |
| eeli | for larning the stuff! | 00:12 |
| meatbun | mrbucket: i know it's on knippix... cause i ve used dd on it before... not sure for ubunt | 00:12 |
| greezmunkey | Does "dd" care what is on a HDD? In other words, if all I want to do is move the data on one drive to another, will dd handle it? | 00:13 |
| mrbucket | greezmunkey: it does not. | 00:13 |
| Losha | meatbun: dd is such a basic command for drive maintenance I can't imagine it's not on the live cd. | 00:13 |
| meatbun | dd is more like binary writing | 00:13 |
| meatbun | Losha: ok. | 00:13 |

| greezmunkey | mrbucket, ok, one more if I succeed in moving the data to a larger HDD, then does gparted care how a drive is formatted for it to expand the partition on the new drive? | 00:15 |

| Zopiac | is there a way to get true transparency for the gnome-panel (so that applications behind it will show through) and keep icons and text opaque? ive tried various things ive found online but nothing does it right | 00:16 |
| tim | is anyone using the nouveau driver? | 00:16 |
| Zopiac | either the icons will be transparent as well or its fake transparency, just showing the desktop and not underlaid application windows | 00:17 |
| awesomo4k | XRANDR extension missing ! arrgh.. what's the fix (I need xinerama). | 00:17 |
| brjann | greezmunkey: using dd to copy to a drive that isn't exactly the same is sketchy at best | 00:17 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Maimster, repair option for that partition is probly in order...let's hope it's fixable | 00:17 |
| synapse_ | How can I make make the Main Menu (gnome menu) function from a right click on the desktop? I want the same menus available from a right click on the desktop | 00:17 |
| blakkheim | synapse_: compiz-deskmenu | 00:18 |
| synapse_ | I dont use compiz | 00:18 |
| brjann | greezmunkey: why not just use gparted to copy partitions from one disk to another? | 00:18 |
| blakkheim | synapse_: can't help you then sorry | 00:18 |
| Losha | greezmunkey: in general, as long as there is *contiguous* free space, you can enlarge an existing partition, but I've only ever done it with ext3 and ntfs. In general, I would make an empty, larger partition first, and then copy the contents of the smaller partition to it, using tar, or dump, etc... | 00:18 |
| sbap1 | I'd like to change the compile flags in a apt-get .deb package. Is there any way to do this?? | 00:19 |
| Losha | sbap: a source .deb? | 00:19 |
| synapse_ | download the source? | 00:20 |
| sbap | well ya | 00:20 |
| sbap | but i need an extra flag when it compiles | 00:20 |
| sbap | where would I edit that? | 00:20 |
| flaarg | sbap which package and what flag | 00:21 |
| ajnewbold | what are the chances that Ubuntu will run on this? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Acer+-+Aspire+Laptop+with+AMD+Athlon%26%23153%3B+Single-Core+Processor/9555769.p?skuId=9555769&id=1218127632130#tabbed-customerreviews There's no mention of the device on the site anywhere :/ | 00:21 |
| Losha | sbap: depends on how it builds. If you're lucky there's a single Makefile which you can edit | 00:21 |
| sbap | flaarg: mpd and I want to compile with lame support | 00:21 |
| synapse_ | try fooling around with debuild | 00:21 |
| infid | is there a way to display a message in the gnome-panel? Ie have my favorite quote from an author always show on the gnome panel? | 00:22 |
| flaarg | um doesnt mpd come with lame support? | 00:22 |

| xeon | test | 00:22 |
| sbap | flaarg: which normally i wouldnt care about, but I have an app that will only accept httpd streaming from lame outputs | 00:23 |
| xeon | why " Cannot send to channel" for some channels? | 00:23 |
| flaarg | sbap: ah for streaming | 00:23 |
| sbap | flaarg: ya | 00:23 |
| synapse_ | xeon: not registered on freenode probably | 00:23 |
| sbap | flaarg: ive done it by compiling from source. but deb is so much nicer | 00:23 |
| xeon | oh | 00:24 |
| flaarg | sbap: have you done apt-get source mpd? | 00:24 |
| sbap | flaarg: everything is neat and tidy. not hacked together by myself :) | 00:24 |
| flaarg | in the debian dir edit the rules file and change --disable-lame to --enable-lame | 00:25 |
| flaarg | and rebuild the package | 00:25 |
| flaarg | dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot | 00:25 |
| sbap | flaarg: ok let me try that. So i can essentially leave my existing mpd intall intact? | 00:25 |

| flaarg | change the version to a newer one | 00:26 |
| synapse_ | <synapse_> try fooling around with debuild | 00:26 |
| Losha | ajnewbold: unless you find a google reference where someone says they successfully installed ubuntu on an AS5532-5535, it's a gamble. I suppose you could show up at best buy with a live cd and see if it runs... | 00:27 |
| synapse_ | I don't see why you can't use debuild to do that | 00:27 |
| ajnewbold | Losha: hey, that's a great idea -- the livecd :) | 00:27 |
| synapse_ | can't you set the ENV for whatever flags you want and use debuild? | 00:27 |
| flaarg | I have never used bebuild | 00:27 |
| flaarg | debuild | 00:27 |
| flaarg | so | 00:27 |
| synapse_ | neither have I | 00:28 |
| Principitto | how is the ubuntu spanish channel? | 00:28 |
| sbap | i certainly havent either :) | 00:28 |
| synapse_ | no habla espanol | 00:28 |

| ubottu | Principitto Try it yourself: 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. | 00:28 |
| Principitto | thanks | 00:28 |
| flaarg | sbap: anyway you can do what I said, remove your currently installed mpd, install that one, set it to not update and you should be good to go | 00:28 |
| synapse_ | heh, like a computer "language" has phonetics | 00:29 |
| sbap | flaarg: ok. how do I set it to not update? | 00:29 |
| synapse_ | GAWK, GREP, FSCK, blah blah blah | 00:29 |

| sbap | flaarg: one last thing. "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" what is the syntax there? what I am calling with dpkg-buildpackage? | 00:37 |
| flaarg | you are actually calling debian/rules | 00:37 |
| * bIGHh take a big breath... (Hopefully for BanNet aka Efnet their #debian is untrusted then) | 00:37 | |
| flaarg | but you build deb using fakeroot | 00:37 |
| flaarg | that you can install | 00:38 |
| flaarg | you don't have to be root to use dpkg-buildpackage | 00:38 |
| sbap | should i just run that in the mpd source folder then? | 00:38 |
| flaarg | but you don't need a target | 00:38 |

| barf | I am quiet new to IRC, does anyone have a recommendation for an ncurses based IRC client? I’d prefer one with tabbed browsing | 00:55 |
| trism | barf: irssi | 00:55 |
| barf | Yes? | 00:55 |
| sentabi | how to upgrate 9.04 to 9.10 from .iso ? | 00:55 |
| flaarg | irssi, but you will have to learn how to use it, another option is weechat | 00:55 |
| flaarg | neither one has tabs per say, but you can switch windows using alt+a number | 00:55 |
| barf | tabbing with different keys :-p | 00:56 |
| barf | So irssi is the way to go? | 00:56 |
| barf | Thank you | 00:56 |
| dsnyders | Anyone? | 00:57 |
| bitfox | @flaarg: do you use irssi? | 00:58 |
| flaarg | yes I use irssi | 00:58 |
| bitfox | ok | 00:58 |
| bitfox | I try to install weechat... but it doesn't connect to servers | 00:59 |
| Guest53713 | -t | 00:59 |
| === ownlife is now known as oLife | ||
| bitfox | There are two different weechat versions | 00:59 |
| bitfox | client and the core | 00:59 |
| flaarg | I dont know weechat, other than a lot of people use it | 00:59 |
| flaarg | more use irssi im sure though | 01:00 |
| bitfox | ok | 01:00 |
| bitfox | ok | 01:00 |
| flaarg | and you need both for weechat | 01:00 |
| bitfox | yes | 01:00 |
| flaarg | they are making more clients for weechat that will connect with core | 01:00 |
| flaarg | right now there is just hte ncurses | 01:00 |
| bitfox | irssi... I'm finding some screenshots | 01:00 |
| AgentGreen | does anyne know a guy that comes here by the name something squid | 01:00 |
| flaarg | of course irssi used to have a bunch of interfaces other than ncurses but they have gone the way of the dodo | 01:00 |
| bitfox | ok | 01:01 |
| seanbrystone | GeekSquid, is his name | 01:01 |
| AgentGreen | yess | 01:01 |
| flaarg | use irssi in screen so you can ssh into your computer from away and have irssi :D | 01:01 |
| AgentGreen | that's the one | 01:01 |
| AgentGreen | thanks man | 01:01 |
| seanbrystone | np | 01:01 |
| oLife | flaarg: ssh? | 01:02 |
| dsnyders | www.irssi.org | 01:02 |
| flaarg | ssh lets you connect to your computer securely from other computers if you have it set up right. | 01:02 |
| bitfox | I would know if irssi make available the division of server messages from user messages | 01:04 |
| bitfox | usually i use xchat... but the problem is that xchat doesn't offer this service | 01:05 |
| dsnyders | bitfox, do you mean server messages like comutamike has quit (Quit: Leaving.)? | 01:06 |

| Nolan2 | Thank you _juca | 01:50 |
| Nolan2 | I'm such an idiot :( | 01:50 |
| torrancew | hi, i'm trying to debug a kernel related error on Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop, would anyone mind helping? | 01:50 |
| brjann | _juca, Nolan2: should be chmod -R, not -r | 01:50 |
| seanbrystone | BeeR, real subtle. ;) | 01:50 |
| torrancew | (64 bit version) | 01:50 |
| Nolan2 | Oh. | 01:50 |
| rimp | Hello? | 01:51 |
| Nolan2 | _juca another question, does that also Chmod the specific files in that directory? | 01:51 |
| hikenboot | I am trying to compile a custom kernel it gives the following error http://pastebin.ca/1818251 anyone able to help | 01:51 |
| _juca | brjann: sorry man. sometimes I can't execute a command in recursive mode because it is -r or -R. I never know what is the right one. | 01:51 |
| BeeR | seanbrystone heh sorry but i havent been there in ages | 01:52 |
| brjann | _juca: no worries, I know the feeling :) | 01:52 |
| BeeR | just was wondering why i can't connect to that network | 01:52 |
| BeeR | heh | 01:52 |
| sbap | flaarg: ok. unfortunately mpd is still barking that I dont have the lame encoder | 01:52 |
| rastasean | the damn account manager wants to know my password when launching empathy IM but i type in my password. never works | 01:52 |
| seanbrystone | i installed openoffice database and its listed in the menu, but when i click on it nothing happens | 01:52 |
| torrancew | specifically, the hda-intel module is causing a 'spurious response' for me | 01:52 |
| flaarg | sbap: did you install liblame? | 01:53 |
| rimp | anybody good with jack audio control | 01:53 |
| sbap | flaarg: I just did lame... ARGH | 01:53 |
| brjann | BeeR: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ :) | 01:53 |

| rastasean | haha | 01:53 |
| rastasean | nonno | 01:53 |
| flaarg | hikenboot: try the option --append-to-version=-final-union | 01:53 |

| _juca | Nolan2, brjann: when I do that, it Chmod every directory and file in it | 01:54 |
| sbap | flaarg: ok.. so im going to remove the package. delete the .deb's i created. rebuild the .debs after installing liblame | 01:54 |
| Nolan2 | brjann, does sudo chmod -R a+w /directory also CHMOD the files inside the directory | 01:54 |
| brjann | Nolan2, _juca: correct, chmod -R operates on directories and files | 01:54 |
| uvacav | whats the appropriate way to download updates for alpha 3? | 01:54 |
| dsnyders | rastasean, a split second after hitting enter I had the thought that maybe you were talking about a piece of software. | 01:54 |
| brjann | Nolan2: do you just want to do directories? | 01:54 |
| Nolan2 | oh okay. | 01:54 |
| flaarg | sbap: well you can, but try to just install liblame and see if it works | 01:54 |
| flaarg | if you installed the lame dev | 01:54 |
| BeeR | brjann that site can track irc networks or only websites??? | 01:54 |
| flaarg | lame has some weirdness | 01:55 |
| Nolan2 | No brjann, files and directories | 01:55 |
| sbap | ill try that first | 01:55 |

| rimp | anybody good with audio setup for recording | 01:55 |
| brjann | Nolan2: then chmod -R is what you want :) | 01:55 |
| sbap | ya it compiled correectly looks like. the config calls the lame encoder so it barks when it starts | 01:56 |
| BeeR | brjann thats kool | 01:56 |
| flaarg | sbap: does it still messup after you installed lame? | 01:56 |
| TecnoBrat | Yendor: WEP or WPA? | 01:56 |
| ksian | I cannot see my hard drive in /dev/.. can someone please help me | 01:57 |

| TecnoBrat | and what does it do exactlt | 02:00 |
| Nolan2 | brjann, how do I chmod a file with a space in the directory? | 02:00 |
| Yendor | TecnoBrat: Let me go retrieve the laptop from upstairs. Sorry, left it up there. Just a min. | 02:00 |
| ksian | they ware fine some time ago but, now they are mounted as USB devices. initialy they where mounted as sda, and sdb.# | 02:00 |
| sbap | flaarg: still faling on me. installed libmp3lame-dev too | 02:00 |
| brjann | Nolan2: "Directory\ With\ Spaces" | 02:00 |
| sbap | flaarg: ill rebuild the .deb | 02:00 |
| brjann | Nolan2: wait, actually, you don't need the backslashes if you're using double quotes, my bad. just "Directory With Spaces" would work | 02:01 |
| flaarg | sbap: :( well its beyond me quick google found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1398693 | 02:01 |

| Nolan2 | brjann, I just did chmod -R "Azerus Downloads" and it said Chmod: missing operand after 'Azureus Downloads' | 02:03 |
| brjann | Nolan2: you didn't give it a mode | 02:03 |
| Nolan2 | r+w? | 02:03 |
| Nolan2 | oops >.> | 02:03 |
| TecnoBrat | Nolan2: also you spelled Azereus wrong :P | 02:04 |
| ksian | now when I open disk utility i can see only one hard drive, but it is strange because all the partitions from both drives are inside that one | 02:04 |
| ksian | I must make a picture to explain better | 02:04 |
| sbap | flaarg: ill poke around at it. really appreciate your time and help. i have a much better grasp on this now :) | 02:04 |
| TecnoBrat | err so did I! | 02:04 |
| Nolan2 | TecnoBrat, only on here :P | 02:04 |
| TecnoBrat | Azureus! | 02:04 |
| Yendor | TecnoBrat: OK, laptop retrieved. It was upstairs because that's where the wired connection is. But down here, I have wireless working (on this computer, not the laptop), so any notes will have to be hand-copied from the other screen | 02:04 |
| Nolan2 | I spelled it right on the ubuntu machine | 02:04 |
| Nolan2 | lol | 02:04 |
| TecnoBrat | hehe | 02:04 |
| Yendor | TecnoBrat: That aside.......What do you want/need to know? | 02:04 |
| TecnoBrat | Yendor: what happens when you try to connect | 02:05 |
| brjann | Nolan2: no, the first letter is some combination of u (user), g (group), o (other), and a (all). then +, -, or =. then some combination of r (read), w (write), and x (execute). so a+r would be "all plus read", go-w = "group and other minus write", etc | 02:05 |

| ocular | ksian: ok... but you're using a usb enclosure right? | 02:07 |
| TecnoBrat | Yendor: so you aren't using network-manager or wifi-radar? | 02:07 |
| ocular | ksian: so what's the problem exactly? you can't access one of the partitions on the drive, or? | 02:07 |
| Yendor | TecnoBrat: Never heard of wifi-radar, and I believe I've tried network-manager to no avail. | 02:07 |

| feedmecereal | Is there some way that I can get Ubuntu to detect and install the drivers for new hardware automatically like in Windows? | 02:08 |

| RainbowEyes | ^^aoham is advertising >.> | 02:25 |
| RickJones | is that normal? | 02:26 |

| RickJones | is there a way to check if the cd is installing? | 02:31 |
| RickJones | instead of just seeing a logo in the middle of the screen? | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | RickJones: check the consoles | 02:32 |
| RickJones | how? | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | and top command perhas | 02:32 |
| RickJones | Im new to this im sorry | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | alt-ctrl-f1 through f6 | 02:32 |
| brjann | feedmecereal: any luck? | 02:32 |
| RickJones | it wont let me do that | 02:32 |
| RickJones | atm its frozen on the ubuntu logo in the middle of the screen | 02:33 |
| n16h7f0x | are the secure-delete tools in the repositories (from thc) really secure? | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | sounds like its hung/crashed | 02:33 |
| feedmecereal | brjann: It mostly seemed to work! But now, sound seems to be skipping sometimes. Hmm? | 02:33 |
| RickJones | Dr Willis can you help me thru this? | 02:33 |
| gamedreamer | join #</hak5> | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | n16h7f0x: as secure as they can be3 i imagine. read up on th especific tools | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | RickJones: if the pc is crashing - not a lot of magic i can do remotely | 02:33 |
| RickJones | how do I know its crashing? | 02:34 |
| RickJones | I mean it runs windows xp pro perfectly fine | 02:34 |
| RickJones | I just want it to be ubuntu lol | 02:34 |
| darolu | RickJones: I had that problem once (freezing at the [at the time] usplash), I had to install a different kernel and start up with it, maybe you'll problem can be solved that way too. | 02:34 |
| brjann | feedmecereal: heh, ye olde linux skipping sound problem. | 02:34 |
| RickJones | darolu what do you mean different kernal? | 02:35 |
| brjann | feedmecereal: you are running karmic, right? | 02:35 |
| feedmecereal | brjann: Yes, so this is a common problem? | 02:35 |
| darolu | RickJones: the kernel I was trying to boot was damaged I suppose, so I installed a different (older) one to boot. | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | RickJones: if its totally hung - it crashed. You did check the md5sum? does it EVER get to the desktop? did you do an actual install yet? | 02:35 |
| Losha | n16h7f0x: dunno. Just how sensitive is the information you're trying to get rid of? | 02:35 |
| darolu | to boot with* | 02:35 |
| RickJones | no I havent installed yet | 02:35 |
| RickJones | what happens is I see the lang selection on boot | 02:36 |
| brjann | feedmecereal: common enough. seems to be something related to the sound server, pulseaudio. I *really* don't know anything about pulse. you might find help with skipping audio here, or maybe in #pulseaudio | 02:36 |
| darolu | RickJones: aaah if you haven't installed then your iso might be damaged | 02:36 |

| K-Rich | Yendor: in same file? | 02:39 |
| Yendor | K-Rich: Well, that's what you pasted me earlier, except I added the "export" | 02:39 |
| Yendor | K-Rich: I think you'll have to make sure the "export" is there. | 02:40 |
| dsnyders | goddard, PXE is somewhat complex to set up. You will need a pxe server and dhcp. | 02:40 |
| K-Rich | Yendor: of note, at console and another terminal ' echo $LD_PRELOAD ' displays the correct value | 02:40 |
| kevcox | Anyone know of another room that might help with Ubuntu simple networking issues? | 02:40 |
| kevcox | Server edition | 02:40 |
| Yendor | K-Rich: Actually, hmm. I think that'll only work if someone opens a bash shell (terminal). Not sure if it'll run if they just login to X and attempt to use the webcam | 02:40 |

| RickJones | ok | 02:41 |
| Maletor | OK - I have 2TBs that I just put into a RAID5 (three drives - as such [http://lookpic.com/i/542/IvfLaw5W.png]. I want to put my fourth drive, the one with all the data I want preserved, added (grown?) to the RAID array. How do I do this? | 02:42 |

| cfedde | Maletor: it's hard to grow a raid group once it has been created. You'll have to stage the data somewhere so that it is available to be merged after the filesystem is created and mounted. | 02:43 |
| nonameNN | hey guys, is there any way to change default theme for all user? i want to use clearlooks instead of human | 02:44 |
| jaypur | hi every1 | 02:44 |
| Maletor | cfedde - i'm so lost i don't know where to begin | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | nonameNN: proberly is. but if the users allready exist then you would have to go thro9ugh each of their homes and change their settings | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | nonameNN: which is not a good idea | 02:45 |

| Maletor | cfedde | 02:46 |
| nonameNN | Dr_Willis: ok... i still want to do it... how can i do it? | 02:46 |

| RickJones | I mean I installed this from the official odwnload page | 02:47 |
| jungletek | Would this be the right chan for help with b43? Specifically getting WPA or WPA2 working. Mind you, it did before with my router's stock firmware, but only works in windows now that i flashed the router with dd-wrt... | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | nonameNN: with some shell scripting and proberly nasty use of the gconf editor. I would guess | 02:47 |
| dsnyders | goddard, you might find some joy at www.pendrivelinux.org. | 02:47 |
| cfedde | Maletor: when a raid group is initialized it will loose all the data in the group. | 02:48 |
| goddard | dsnyders I will give it a shoot | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | nonameNN: unless the default theme settings are in a file. But i think they are in the gconf settings somewhere | 02:48 |
| darolu | RickJones: download it again, files can get corrupted when you download them. I recommed using torrents | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | nonameNN: you could just rename the system theme/files :) but thats still a hack | 02:48 |

| Leemp | Can anyone give any information on the error "gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found"? The key is official.. What is going wrong? | 02:49 |
| Maletor | so to do RAID anything i have to start with 0? | 02:49 |
| brjann | Maletor: I would recommend copying the data from the single disk to the array, verifying it, and only then adding the single disk into the array | 02:49 |
| jungletek | Yendor: yes, and as i said, prior to fiddling with my router's firmware, i had my card working with fwcutter. WPA was working. | 02:49 |
| cfedde | Maletor: exactly. You can stage all the data somewhere else. | 02:49 |
| Maletor | brjann and cfedde that is conflicting | 02:50 |
| xeon | tar xvzf ..."tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors". why is that? | 02:50 |
| Yendor | jungletek: You've just exceeded my knowledge about WPA then. I have a couple old devices that don't do WPA, so I've got an open network. Don't particularly care. | 02:50 |

| Gnea | RickJones: is it 64bit? | 02:53 |
| cfedde | Maletor: current lunux md based ext4fs raid groups don't support that. | 02:53 |
| RickJones | nope | 02:53 |
| RickJones | ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent? | 02:53 |
| Maletor | cfdedde: so what's the plan of action? | 02:53 |
| Yendor | jungletek: Yep, it appears to be. "lshw -C network" shows that it has a driver. I can see the card under the Network Tools. It just won't connect to my wide-open network. | 02:54 |
| cfedde | Maletor: stage all the data somewhere else (cd, another drive something) make the new raid group. | 02:54 |
| systematical | im experiencing problems with the vino remote desktop server, it keeps switching to local network access only... | 02:54 |
| arand | RickJones: not necessarily, amd64 just denotes that it's 64bit (since amd was the first one to come up with the technology, bot intel and amd uses the same) | 02:54 |
| Maletor | cfedde - i might be able to get hold of a temp. holding space, but for hypothetical how would you do this? | 02:54 |
| cfedde | Maletor: copy the data back to the raid group. | 02:54 |

| FloodBot2 | Leemp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:13 |
| Maletor | out of band? | 03:13 |
| Leemp | Whoa, lag spike | 03:13 |
| marcos | how do I add the startx in the profile? | 03:13 |
| Leemp | brjann: Yup | 03:13 |
| jungletek | Yendor: i messaged you a few minutes ago | 03:13 |
| marcos | how do I add the startx in the profile? | 03:13 |
| jungletek | with an http link | 03:13 |
| cfedde | Maletor: brjann from this channel overheard our conversation and asserted that it has worked for him. | 03:14 |
| Leemp | brjann: It's in there, and properly formed | 03:14 |
| puff | http://paste.ubuntu.com/386716/ | 03:14 |
| brjann | Leemp: okay, and i'm assuming you simply copied that block of text from the page into gedit? | 03:14 |
| puff | My usb enclosure drive stopped automounting. | 03:14 |
| Dahamon | !flash | 03:14 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 03:14 |
| Leemp | brjann: Tried multiple ways, gedit being one of them | 03:14 |
| Leemp | brjann: Nano, etc | 03:14 |
| brjann | Leemp: rgr, let me try | 03:14 |
| Leemp | I've also tried this on two separate computers heh. | 03:15 |
| puff | Is there any way to nudge autommount and get it to run again? | 03:15 |
| Yendor | jungletek: Hmmm. Don't think I received the message. | 03:15 |
| arand | Truculent: I know HD vendors have tools for re-allocating and disabling bad sectors, but that often requires a full disk format, it the amount of bad sectors are _constant_, it shouldn't be too much trouble, if they increase though, that's a big warning flag... | 03:15 |
| brjann | Leemp: okay, at the very least i'm getting the same error as you :) | 03:15 |
| Leemp | brjann: I mean, it seems like everyone else is having no issues with this. I have not seen one person ask about the key being bad. I seem to be the only one, and no one answered | 03:16 |
| brjann | cfedde: you're trying to get me in trouble! :) | 03:16 |
| Leemp | brjann: Thanks! I assumed i was doing something stupid | 03:16 |
| Leemp | brjann: I've been searching for hours. | 03:16 |
| jungletek | Yendor: just spammed you with it in a PM | 03:16 |
| jungletek | anything? | 03:16 |
| Leemp | brjann: Last time i gave up and just compiled the damn thing myself. | 03:16 |
| marcos | how do I add the startx in the profile? | 03:16 |
| brjann | Leemp: haha | 03:16 |
| Truculent | arand: they aren't increasing, thanks. I've been monitoring them for a few hours, I think it might be a false alarm. | 03:17 |
| Yendor | jungletek: I saw that you sent me something, but this Colloquy.app doesn't appear to actually show me the message. | 03:17 |
| cfedde | brjann and Maletor google leads me here: http://scotgate.org/2006/07/03/growing-a-raid5-array-mdadm/ | 03:17 |
| Maletor | brjann - how do i grow a raid 5 | 03:17 |
| Leemp | brjann: So apt-key add file *should* work? | 03:17 |
| arand | Truculent: That's not a matter of hours, but days/weeks | 03:17 |
| bethany | anyone/. | 03:17 |
| Leemp | brjann: If so, i'l repost on the mailing list. | 03:17 |
| Leemp | +l | 03:17 |
| marcos | how do I add the startx in the profile? | 03:17 |
| jungletek | Yendor: i don't know what that is, sorry... i use a real irc client ;) | 03:17 |
| brjann | leemp: might be something dumb we're missing | 03:17 |
| Yendor | jungletek: Heh. Neither do I, really. It's an OSX IRC client. | 03:17 |
| Leemp | brjann: I saw mention of a different key server, one sec | 03:18 |
| Yendor | jungletek: Just grabbed it off the internets tonight. Since wireless no worky on the laptop, can't do IRC on said laptop until wireless worky. :) | 03:18 |
| marcos | would like the Ubuntu 9.10 only start in text mode, as I do? | 03:18 |
| brjann | Maletor, cfedde: yes, the procedure described in cfedde's link is essentially the one I've used. | 03:18 |
| Truculent | arand: I see that now, I'm just going to have to replace them I guess. | 03:18 |
| jungletek | Yendor: unless i'm severely mistaken, you can get xchat for osx | 03:18 |
| jungletek | up to you though | 03:18 |
| arand | bethany: In the maintenance shell does it say "run fsck manually"? | 03:18 |

| rahduke | is anyone registered with newzbin.com ?? | 03:21 |
| brjann | Leemp: there should be 5 hyphens on either side of the BEGIN.. END.. blocks, not 4 | 03:21 |
| Yendor | Yep, confirmed. Wrireless Networks: disconnected. No networks listed. | 03:21 |
| awesomo4k | oh yeah newzbin rocks | 03:21 |
| arand | bethany: yea, at this stage the system has pretty much decided not to tuch the filesystem before it's checked thouroughly, are you still at the maintenance shell now? | 03:21 |
| jungletek | Yendor: try opening a terminal and doing: iwlist scan | 03:21 |
| Leemp | brjann: Good lord. Those people are killing me. | 03:21 |
| brjann | Leemp: they're testing you! | 03:21 |
| flaarg | Leemp: figured it out | 03:22 |

| flaarg | try that | 03:22 |
| Leemp | brjann: 8+ | 03:22 |
| Yendor | jungletek: No scan results. Oops. :) | 03:22 |
| flaarg | the gpg format was invalid | 03:22 |
| flaarg | would you believe it had one less - on the header and footer? | 03:22 |
| flaarg | than its supposed to | 03:22 |
| bethany | arand: it happened a few days ago too so i reinstaled / ... so maybe its my hdd going bad? win still boots fine. and its always my / partition that does this. | 03:23 |
| jungletek | Yendor: sounds like the card might not be recognized... but I'm far from an expert | 03:23 |
| puff | So,my usb enclosure drive (western digital my book) all of sudden stopped automounting. | 03:23 |
| Leemp | flaarg: That's what brjann said hehe :) | 03:23 |
| flaarg | ah lol | 03:23 |
| bethany | arand: my baby unplugs my laptop that doesnt charge anymore several times a day. | 03:23 |
| flaarg | msg the dev and tell them to fix it | 03:23 |
| puff | It's plugged into my dock, so I tried plugging it straight into my laptop, no automount. It shows up in dmesg and /var/log/syslog, but I don't see any error or isue with atuomount. | 03:23 |
| puff | I tried tomanually mount it but it says I need the file type. How do I find the filetype? | 03:23 |
| Leemp | flaarg: Will do. I can't believe no one mentioned it yet | 03:23 |
| brjann | Maletor: are you still around? | 03:24 |
| Maletor | brjann - yes | 03:24 |
| flaarg | I suspect that not too many people that use it installed the package yet I guess | 03:24 |
| Maletor | is this setup correctly? http://lookpic.com/i/455/ZFVae5YS.png | 03:24 |
| Yendor | jungletek: thanks. I'll keep plugging away at it. I know it *can* work. I just don't know what the correct magical incantations are. | 03:24 |
| theresa | I have a Dell laptop with the following error after an upgrade. Here is the error message: init: networking main process (477) terminated with status 1 | 03:24 |
| arand | bethany: reapeated fsck errors could be a sign of hardware failiure, but yes, repoeated power cuts can also do messy things to the filesystem if not shutdown cleanly. | 03:24 |

| joppan_ | anyone help needed i have downlaoded 10.04 alpha 3 i386 iso and burned ..wnat to upgarde from 9.10 ..without losing existing settings | 03:25 |
| bethany | no its just / i was trying to avoid having to reinstall all my apps again. | 03:25 |
| jungletek | Yendor: yeah, i had mine working once, then did something because it seemed flaky and then there was nothing i could do to get it to work again. so i re-installed and didn't do what i did the first time ;) | 03:25 |
| jungletek | best of luck | 03:25 |
| brjann | Maletor: looks fine. i wanted to make sure you understood the procedure cfedde linked to above | 03:25 |
| theresa | I was finally able to get in with chmodding the /etc/init.d/networking to 000 | 03:25 |
| arand | bethany: there is a command available which will either fix it or if unlucky break it even more (I've experienced both)... | 03:26 |
| Leemp | flaarg: Hmm, i ran apt-key add, and it said "OK". Though, apt-get still says the package from them cannot be authenticated. Any ideas? Is there a keyring i need to update or something? For kicks i ran apt-get/key update | 03:26 |
| puff | Anybody?http://paste.ubuntu.com/386716/ | 03:26 |
| marcos | Can anyone help me? in ubuntu 9.04 I was doing that the system was straight to the text only mode with the command chmod-x / etc / gdm, but at 9:10 I was unsuspecting because the same method did not work, somebody any tips? | 03:26 |
| brjann | Maletor: and I also wanted to make sure you understood that cfedde's procedure of copying the data elsewhere and building the full 4-disk array is much safer than growing the array | 03:26 |
| bethany | arand: well aslong as it only breaks / and not /home with it | 03:26 |
| arand | bethany: Do you have them on separate partitions? | 03:27 |
| brjann | Maletor: tell you what, let's go to PMs, because I don't want you to misunderstand anything before you start if you choose this method | 03:27 |
| brjann | Maletor: ok? | 03:27 |
| bethany | arand: ya i do | 03:27 |
| supercom32 | hey | 03:27 |

| arand | bethany: Recommendations: QUOTE: "Try recommending to boot a liveCD first, perform a dd backup, force-mount the filesystem, attempt to extract /etc, and then pull the trigger. That makes is less likely to be horrible when something goes wrong." | 03:31 |
| flaarg | Leemp: talk the package maintainer, its their responsibility to make it easy to add the gpg key. | 03:31 |
| Leemp | flaarg: Righto :) | 03:32 |
| flaarg | Leemp: also if you can't get the key to verify I suggest not using the package. Its easy to add bad stuff to debs and get away with it if its not signed. | 03:32 |
| princezuda | Hey I'm trying to extract a tarball of sphinx on ubuntu through my terminal and I'm not sure how to do it exactly. | 03:32 |
| flaarg | even if it is signed | 03:32 |
| Leemp | flaarg: Shouldn't it be relatively secure, given that it's their own private server? | 03:32 |
| arand | bethany: or you could just "close-eyes-pull-trigger", as someone so nicely put it. | 03:33 |
| flaarg | Leemp: yes, but you don't know who has access to their server | 03:33 |
| Leemp | flaarg: Ignoring all hacking junk, ofcourse | 03:33 |
| Leemp | True | 03:33 |
| blakkheim | princezuda: man tar | 03:33 |
| flaarg | I susped the package is fine | 03:33 |
| flaarg | suspect | 03:33 |
| puff | princezuda: It's probably gippped, so first unzip it, then untar it. unzip is done iwth "unzip", tar is done with the expand option to tar. MAn tar for details. | 03:33 |

| r00tintheb0x | I'm about to down a Ubuntu ISO for my triple core Phenom 64bit proc. Should I just install the 32 bit version? | 03:34 |
| flaarg | Tensai: 9.10 uses grub2 | 03:34 |
| Tensai | That would be why | 03:34 |
| puff | princezuda: I recommend using the list contents option of tar first, to make sure what its going to unpack. Normally people create a tar with an enclosing directory, but not always. | 03:34 |
| BluesKaj | princezuda, use the unp app it does it all when extarcting | 03:34 |
| Tm_T | Arsin: #kubuntu | 03:34 |
| flaarg | Tensai: the file you edit is in /etc/default/grub | 03:35 |
| flaarg | then update-grub | 03:35 |
| supercom32 | I have a machine that is triple boot. 2 Linux, 1 Windows. Using grub2, how do I change the grub menu order so that one particular Linux OS is at the top of the list? I keep changing the orders in grub.d but nothing happens. Any ideas? | 03:35 |

| jungletek | I'm using the gnome distro of mint. If I use package manager to upgrade my kernel, is that totally stupid? Should I wait for the maintainers of the distro to release the kernel update through the mintupdate utility? | 03:35 |
| flaarg | supercom32: update-grub overwrites grub.d using the settings from /etc/default/grub | 03:36 |
| Random832 | !mint | 03:36 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information.

| gerzel | Hey I'm installing Ubuntu on an ASUA eeePC 701, w/o ARM proccessor, but solid state memory. How do I get into the more advanced package selection as the installer doesn't seem to give me much of any options. | 03:36 |
| puff | princezuda: That's a gnu zip file, so unzip should owrk on it. | 03:36 |
| gerzel | I'm using the minimal iso | 03:36 |
| supercom32 | flaarg: I don't see any boot order information my default grub. Do I need to add this? | 03:36 |
| jungletek | Random832: sorry, i understand | 03:36 |
| puff | princezuda: Or "man -k zip" to see what other tools you can use. | 03:36 |
| flaarg | supercom32: no idea, I don't know grub2 that well yet | 03:37 |
| jungletek | jiohdi: thanks, I assumed as much. | 03:37 |
| arand | flaarg: ( supercom32 ) wrong, it uses the scripts from grub.d to overwrite grub.cfg | 03:37 |
| flaarg | I just know that changing stuff in /boot/grub often won't work due to update-grub overwriting it | 03:37 |
| n1lqj | karmic has me so frustrated, I can't capture sound on the card directly with sound recorder, anyone know the fix? | 03:37 |

| r00tintheb0x | I'm about to down a Ubuntu ISO for my triple core Phenom 64bit proc. Should I just install the 32 bit version? | 03:37 |
| supercom32 | arand: So changing the numbers in grub.d won't effect boot order? Where do I need to change to get a particular boot OS to be topmost? | 03:38 |
| flaarg | I really dislike a lot of design changes in grub2 | 03:38 |

| arand | supercom32: I'm not sure boot order is available as a parameter for the /etc/default/grub file... or in any simple way for grub2 at all, hacking the grub.d scripts would probably be the way to do it (followed by running update-grub), but I don't know how. | 03:39 |
| Principitto | ? | 03:39 |
| dj_segfault1 | neezer: No, but I haven't heard of ANYTHING under Linux that can talk to the Touch. | 03:39 |

| Principitto | E: Read error - read (21 Is a directory) | 03:39 |
| flaarg | Principitto: 21 is a directory | 03:40 |
| supercom32 | arand: I'm told changing the script numbers would do it. But I forgot to do a update-grub so I'm trying that again to see if it works. | 03:40 |
| Principitto | but | 03:40 |
| hackoo | i dont know whats going on, my /home/devendra partition is filling itself. I can see its used space is increasing. | 03:40 |

| hackoo | flaarg: now I have 0 bytes left in /home/devendra | 03:45 |
| flaarg | hackoo: really there is no way for us to know what program is doing that. For instance right now irssi is writing a log of what is going on in irc | 03:45 |
| Principitto | Flaarg it says it cant deleted that isnt a derectory | 03:45 |
| flaarg | for me | 03:45 |
| flaarg | Principitto: well ok thats just what I found googling for that | 03:45 |
| Principitto | i google it too and i found that too | 03:46 |
| dj_segfault1 | neezer: So it sees it as an external USB storage device, but not a music player. Sorry to hear your music got messed up. Hope you had it backed up. | 03:46 |
| arand | bethany: hmm, that is normally quite a bad sign. And if that's where the important files are I'd definitely say a partition clone using dd would be a good idea to make sure. | 03:46 |
| arand | bethany: was this from the maintenance shell? | 03:46 |
| neezer | I'm not so sure it sees it as just an external usb mass storage...why else would it show up in rhythmbox? | 03:46 |
| neezer | dj_segfault1, the music is still on the device, for some reason it isn't recognizing it though. | 03:47 |
| dj_segfault1 | neezer: If you put MP3 files on a thumbdrive you can play them from rhythmbox too. | 03:47 |
| arand | bethany: How did you run fsck and what kind of errors did it give | 03:47 |
| spackest | anyone out there build a xen kernel on squeeze? | 03:48 |
| bethany | arand: i just typed fsck /dev/sda7 in maint shell | 03:48 |
| Pici | spackest: Thats a more appropriate topic for #debian | 03:48 |
| flaarg | spackest: this is #ubuntu not #debian, and there is a xen kernel in the repo for squeeze | 03:48 |
| spackest | really? | 03:48 |
| flaarg | yes really | 03:48 |
| spackest | actually, I am running ubuntu server 9.10, now that I think about it :) was squeeze on another cluster | 03:49 |

| brjann | cyberbluntz: that's the gnome virtual file system, it's in charge of mounting things like remote ssh folders and usb sticks nowadays | 03:59 |
| hwilde | flaarg, correct, and no sounds, no volume control. | 03:59 |
| Fiction | im thinking about just going to buy a sound card to hope that fixed | 03:59 |
| hwilde | flaarg, this is what I get when I go to preferences, sound, "waiting for sound system to respond" http://i45.tinypic.com/29lye51.jpg | 04:01 |
| hwilde | flaarg, in totem the sound option is greyed out | 04:01 |
| spackest | flaarg: you mean if I install debian squeeze multiarch I can just choose a xen kernel? | 04:01 |
| Fiction | want me to post mother board or is there a way i can find out what sound card my mb is useing | 04:01 |
| flaarg | spackest: I think so | 04:02 |

| AllHailTheGeek | cyberbluntz, what processes? | 04:30 |

| p1oooop | mattgyver: of course not :) | 04:33 |

| meepmoop | yea | 04:33 |
| meepmoop | does it lock up then release after a period? | 04:33 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, Nope the rest of the harddrive is working fine | 04:33 |
| ga_sk8er | Gryllida i already found clam av through ubuntu software center | 04:34 |
| p1oooop | mattgyver: under the graphics tab of the WINE configuration tab | 04:34 |
| holyguyver | meep nope it does not release | 04:34 |

| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, I mean sounds like you have bad sectors | 04:34 |

| holyguyver | meepmoop, it does not freeze my computer, only whatever program accesses the folder | 04:35 |
| meepmoop | holyguyver: I agree with allhailthegeek you have bad sectors with your hard drive more than likely | 04:35 |

| paissad | http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCity.dat.gz | 04:37 |
| mattgyver | p1oooop, okay ill just upgrade it manually as im just using whats standard with 9.10 anyway | 04:37 |
| Losha | resno: plenty of on target hits when you google for 'x11 forwarding using ssh' | 04:37 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, this happened on more then one hard drive when I copied the folder onto a second harddrive. | 04:37 |
| AllHailTheGeek | cyberbluntz, youstill haven't told me what processes | 04:37 |
| paissad | wget always times out for me !!! | 04:37 |
| Gryllida | hello. maybe you can join #openoffice.org ? there is nobody active at that channel, and i need some help about openoffice; i suppose some of you ubuntu users use openoffice too. thanks! | 04:37 |
| p1oooop | mattgyver: 9.10 comes with WINE? | 04:37 |
| cyberbluntz | ytes i did | 04:37 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, the very same thing? | 04:37 |
| meepmoop | holyguyver, what is it that you're unraring and how? | 04:37 |
| mattgyver | p1oooop, you know what, no it doesnt i installed it from the repos sorry | 04:37 |
| AllHailTheGeek | cyberbluntz, sorry, didn't catch it then, care to repeat? | 04:37 |
| robb | my koala seems to have fallen asleep while doing aforementioned driver install | 04:37 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, Yes the very same rthing happened when I copied this same folder onto a second hartd drive | 04:38 |
| cyberbluntz | 6 lines after you asked the question | 04:38 |
| === jimbo1 is now known as ipw2200user | ||
| holyguyver | meepmoop, it is a DVD rip that unrared only half way the unrar program crashing in the middle of writing a file | 04:38 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, ofc it's still going to freeze, you are ccessing the same damaged sectors | 04:38 |
| Gryllida | i have upgraded to OOo 3.2 at Windows XP. previously using 3.1.1. i use classic appearance (influences icons of toolbar buttons). in 3.2, i saw awful blueish backgrounds of buttons when hovered. is there a way to get rid of them? | 04:39 |
| srini | i got grub error 5 how to solve this? | 04:39 |
| p1oooop | mattgyver: I'd go with the repos for ubuntu | 04:39 |
| robb | !ontopic | 04:39 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 04:39 |
| Gryllida | do you note this behavior at Ubuntu, that one I described? | 04:39 |
| AllHailTheGeek | cyberbluntz, /sbin/getty -8 38400 ttyl1 >> sudo killall getty | 04:39 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, no on a complelety differant hard drive & when accessing the folder on the other harddrive it will not delete on neither hard drive now | 04:39 |
| mattgyver | p1oooop, okay its not really a big thing just annoying really. | 04:40 |
| cyberbluntz | Do you know what getty is? | 04:40 |
| AllHailTheGeek | no idea :) | 04:40 |
| Losha | holyguyver: if it's truly a disk problem, I'd expect messages in dmesg.... | 04:40 |
| AllHailTheGeek | Losha, good point | 04:40 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, so this folder damaged secotrs on two differant harddrives? | 04:40 |
| dermoth | hello there... There's something that trickled be for quite some time and I could never find any doc on this... I'm running Ubuntu Hardy (same problems since 6.x though). When I set the IO scheduler it always gets reverted after some time... | 04:40 |
| ga_sk8er | klam av is scanning away now | 04:40 |
| Gryllida | nice | 04:41 |
| Losha | holyguyver: doesn't sound very likely when you put it that way.... | 04:41 |
| holyguyver | Losha no it will simply freeze the dmesg cammand | 04:41 |
| * AllHailTheGeek agrees with Losha | 04:41 | |
| dermoth | I though it could be a setting, but even "find /etc/ -type f|xargs grep cfq" hasn't returned anything | 04:41 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, I doubt it. | 04:41 |
| AllHailTheGeek | as dmesg is a log | 04:41 |
| AllHailTheGeek | try it just the same | 04:41 |
| holyguyver | Then give me the cammand & I will tell you the output | 04:41 |
| AllHailTheGeek | dmesg :/ | 04:41 |
| AllHailTheGeek | pastebin the results | 04:41 |
| darolu | srini: open a terminal and type "sudo fdisk -l" (without quot. marks, that's an L not a -one-) and pastebin your result please. | 04:41 |
| p1oooop | mattgyver: yeah... but, hey... it was free anyway :) | 04:42 |
| srini | darolu: the system is not booting | 04:42 |
| holyguyver | Losha AllHailTheGeek the resaults were so big that the terminal cut off the upper part of the resaults | 04:43 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, thats fine, paste what you can see. | 04:43 |
| darolu | srini: I know, grub error 5 means a bad partition table; I thought you were using LiveCD, boot with the LiveCD, then open a terminal and type "sudo fdisk -l" | 04:43 |
| AllHailTheGeek | srini, do you have a livecd/other live computer? | 04:43 |
| * AllHailTheGeek leaves this to darolu :P | 04:43 | |
| srini | darolu: yah.. i have live CD | 04:44 |
| meowbuntu | hi is there kubuntu studio out there | 04:44 |
| darolu | *Everybody is welcome, specially AllHailTheGeek :D | 04:44 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, Losh, meepmoop http://paste.ubuntu.com/386752/ | 04:44 |
| srini | AllHailTheGeek: Let me know the steps to solve that problem | 04:44 |
| Nolan | Night everyone. Thanks for the support. | 04:44 |
| darolu | <darolu> srini: I know, grub error 5 means a bad partition table; boot with the LiveCD, then open a terminal and type "sudo fdisk -l" pastebin the result | 04:45 |
| ga_sk8er | i know this is all linux ppl but i kinda have a windows question. i lost power last night & today my pc wouldnt boot into windows. i reloaded windows from a fresh copy (formatted) & it still wont find my network card even though i install the driver i got from nvidia | 04:45 |
| cyberbluntz | It doesnt seem to be working | 04:45 |
| blakkheim | !windows | ga_sk8er | 04:45 |
| ubottu | ga_sk8er: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents | 04:45 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, Losha, meepmoop, well? | 04:47 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, sec | 04:47 |
| meepmoop | patience | 04:47 |
| cyberbluntz | !getty | 04:47 |
| srini | darolu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/386753/ | 04:48 |
| cyberbluntz | ok, so these getty'sare virtual machines running on my comp? | 04:49 |
| Losha | holyguyver: I see a lot going on. usb drives coming & going, virtualbox running, some backtraces. No bad disk reads, btw. Dunno what to make of it though... | 04:49 |
| dermoth | Hi... Anyone knows what could reset the IO scheduler on Ubuntu? I'm running Ubuntu Hardy (same problems since 6.x though). When I set the IO scheduler it always gets reverted after some time... | 04:50 |
| dermoth | I though it could be a setting, but even "find /etc/ -type f|xargs grep cfq" hasn't returned anything | 04:50 |
| Greasel | quit | 04:50 |
| Losha | cyberbluntz: gettys are usually processes that sit on ttys waiting for someone to login. | 04:51 |
| holyguyver | Losha, yes, see I told you guys no bad disk reads was happening | 04:51 |
| robb | something irregular with the folder itself then | 04:51 |
| holyguyver | Losha, I think I know what is the matter, I just do not know how to fix it. | 04:51 |
| robb | corrupt or such | 04:51 |
| Losha | holyguyver: it was worth checking. Your machine doesn't look normal. Usually a hang like this comes from trying to access a network folder whose server is dead... | 04:52 |
| Losha | holyguyver: what is your theory? | 04:52 |
| holyguyver | Losha, I think what happened was whenever it was unraring & the unrar program crashed that it left the vob file open so whenever the computer goes to read it, it reads it forever unending. | 04:52 |
| darolu | srini: I notice two linux partitions, make sure the boot flag is on the right one | 04:52 |
| bob75 | how do I make ubuntu 8.10 log in without password? | 04:53 |
| srini | darolu: How to da | 04:53 |
| srini | darolu: how to do | 04:54 |
| Losha | holyguyver: time to do the basics. Please open a terminal and paste the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' | 04:54 |
| holyguyver | But this is not on my internal harddrive | 04:54 |
| darolu | srini: your first partition (/dev/sda1) seems rather small, what do you have there? and you can do that with GParted, under System - Admin | 04:54 |
| holyguyver | Losha But this is not on my internal harddrive | 04:54 |
| Losha | holyguyver: what kind of drive is it? An external USB ? | 04:54 |
| holyguyver | Yes | 04:54 |
| holyguyver | Losha yes | 04:55 |
| cajun | I'm having to make room on my HD from a Live USB install. How do I empty the trash on the HD? I see files in that trash but I can't delete them or empty the trash. | 04:55 |
| brjann | bob75: does 8.10 have a System > Administration > Login Screen menu item or something similar? | 04:55 |
| Losha | holyguyver: can you unmount the usb drive? | 04:55 |
| srini | darolu: i created only / /home and swap partitions.. there is no /boot partition | 04:55 |
| holyguyver | Yes | 04:55 |
| bob75 | yes | 04:55 |
| holyguyver | Losha I have done that allready | 04:55 |
| bob75 | login window | 04:56 |
| Losha | holyguyver: please unmount it, and then run sudo fsck on the device. Do you know the device name? | 04:56 |
| brjann | bob75: great. click the unlock button and enter your password, and you should be able to choose to log in automatically | 04:56 |
| holyguyver | Yes I know the device name | 04:56 |
| holyguyver | Losha, yes I know the device name | 04:57 |
| holyguyver | Losha, First before I do that, tell mee what your plan is. | 04:57 |
| robinking623 | orson: i have really weird result with my pcmcia | 04:57 |

| rebelstar | anybody knows command to install Veoh on ubuntu 9.10? | 04:58 |
| yuvaraj | can anyone please suggest a application which will show me which application are using my internet connection? | 04:58 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, do you have anything to say about that pastebin? | 04:58 |
| Losha | holyguyver: well, first step is to see if the drive passes fsck. Then we need to look at the filesystem via the CLI, not via those fancy (and buggy) file manager programs | 04:58 |
| AllHailTheGeek | I unfortunately have no clue | 04:58 |
| holyguyver | Losha it is a 1TB drive, that viewing might take a while | 04:59 |
| rebelstar | anybody knows command to install Veoh on ubuntu 9.10?..i tried sudo apt-get install veoh...but it doesnt work | 04:59 |
| holyguyver | ALso Losha it is formatted in NTFS | 04:59 |
| darolu | srini: your /boot is within your / one, your partition table looks all right, asuming you have / in /dev/sda1 and /home in /dev/sda5. Try reinstalling grub (seems like you have grub legacy [grub 1]), follow this instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#Recovering GRUB Manually | 04:59 |
| bob75 | running dell latitude with nvidia 440 go and when I ran 9.10 it installed drivers that gave me black screen. 8.10 wont do that after updates will it? | 04:59 |
| darolu | srini: you'll need Ubuntu 9.04 LiveCD (or previous) | 05:00 |
| syk | i love dead people. | 05:00 |
| rebelstar | anybody knows command to install Veoh on ubuntu 9.10?..i tried sudo apt-get install veoh...but it doesnt work | 05:01 |
| srini | darolu: if i install the grub means it will be solve??? | 05:01 |
| holyguyver | rebelstar, tried apt-get install youtube? | 05:01 |
| Losha | holyguyver: Hmm. Well the stacktrace in your dmesg suggests the problem happens when you lookup a filename. You may need to take the usb drive and attach it to a windows machine to run a proper chkdisk. | 05:01 |
| cajun | I'm having to make room on my HD from a Live USB install. How do I empty the trash on the HD? I see files in that trash but I can't delete them or empty the trash. | 05:01 |
| yuvaraj | can anyone please suggest a application which will show me which application are using my internet connection? | 05:02 |
| rebelstar | holyguyver: i wanted to install veoh player i mean..youtube works | 05:02 |
| holyguyver | Losha I do not own a Windows machine & do not know anyone who does & I am not joking, I am a hermit, I only ever speak to my mother & I switched her to Linux 3 years ago. | 05:02 |
| darolu | srini: most likely, it will be a fresh install of it | 05:02 |
| Losha | holyguyver: so how did you end up with an ntfs filesystem on your USB drive? | 05:02 |
| blakkheim | holyguyver: same here | 05:02 |
| srini | darolu: Ok thanks | 05:03 |
| === nullvariable1 is now known as nullvariable | ||
| holyguyver | Losha I always format my externals in that so that if my computer ever fails or if I have to hook them up to a windows computer, it will be able to read them. | 05:03 |
| Losha | holyguyver: congratulations. That time has arrived.... | 05:03 |
| holyguyver | Losha my computer failed? | 05:04 |
| rebelstar | holyguyver:sorry i did not understand ur previous reply | 05:04 |
| holyguyver | Losha are you saying Linux sucks? | 05:04 |
| yuvaraj | plz suggest program to see which applications are using my internet connection? | 05:04 |
| puff | yuvaraj: netsata -nlp | 05:04 |
| AllHailTheGeek | <holyguyver> Losha are you saying Linux sucks? | 05:05 |
| === nullvariable1 is now known as nullvariable | ||
| puff | yuvaraj: That is, netstat -nlp will show all incoming and outgoing cnnections. | 05:05 |
| AllHailTheGeek | how the /hell/ do you arrive to that conclusion? | 05:05 |
| raj | GUYS FEDORA SUCKS lol ... it violated opensource i just found that out today FEDORA doesnt allow anyone from Cuba, Iran, Iraq, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria and china to use tehir software .. why is that? | 05:05 |
| yuvaraj | thanks | 05:05 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, Losha said that Linux failed & that I should use a Windows machine | 05:05 |
| petsounds | raj, #fedora | 05:05 |
| cajun | I'm having to make room on my HD from a Live USB install. How do I empty the trash on the HD? I see files in that trash but I can't delete them or empty the trash. | 05:06 |
| Losha | holyguyver: No. I'm saying using ntfs on linux is less reliable that using ext3, and the only way to properly check an ntfs volume is via windows chkdisk. | 05:06 |
| raj | GUYS FEDORA SUCKS lol ... it violated opensource i just found that out today FEDORA doesnt allow anyone from Cuba, Iran, Iraq, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria and china to use their software .. why is that? | 05:06 |
| rebelstar | how can i run videos which require veoh?? | 05:06 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, I see no references by him to use Windows. | 05:06 |
| rebelstar | i cant install it | 05:06 |
| yuvaraj | got it..thank you | 05:06 |
| sloopy | raj, probly because of USA law, but that is OT discussion here... | 05:06 |
| brjann | rebelstar: it looks like to get veoh to work in ubuntu, you need wine. so you might want to try asking in #winehq instead | 05:07 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, <Losha> holyguyver: Hmm. Well the stacktrace in your dmesg suggests the problem happens when you lookup a filename. You may need to take the usb drive and attach it to a windows machine to run a proper chkdisk. | 05:07 |
| dsnyders | HI all. How do I set up two ip addresses on the same network card? | 05:07 |
| rebelstar | tahnsk brjann | 05:07 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, there it is | 05:07 |
| ssmy | dsnyders: you don't. pretty sure that's not possible. | 05:07 |
| DrMrHorse | raj: #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:07 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, you fail at interpereting. | 05:07 |
| sloopy | dsnyders, IIRC alias the driver | 05:07 |
| AllHailTheGeek | And I at spelling, apparently | 05:08 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, he said to hook it up to a Windows machine, isn't that saying to use Windows? | 05:08 |
| brjann | ssmy: sure it is | 05:08 |
| AllHailTheGeek | He never meant to replace your linux with windows. | 05:08 |
| hwilde | copy all of the data off the ntfs drive immediately. reformat it to ext3. q.e.d. | 05:08 |
| hwilde | next! | 05:08 |
| holyguyver | AllHailTheGeek, AllHailTheGeek> holyguyver, I see no references by him to use Windows. | 05:08 |
| AllHailTheGeek | thus returning to your comment that he said linux sucks | 05:08 |
| ssmy | brjann: i'll take your word for it. dsnyders: what brjann said apparently. | 05:08 |
| AllHailTheGeek | holyguyver, I stood corrected in that. | 05:09 |
| holyguyver | You never said anything about replacing my system | 05:09 |
| AllHailTheGeek | ... | 05:09 |

| holyguyver | Okay, well ahve a good night | 05:09 |
| aaron_liuj | gclient sync | 05:10 |
| brjann | dsnyders: I've never done it, but I know that inside the network-manager connection setup you can add multiple addresses under the ipv4 tab | 05:10 |
| neil_d | in 9.10: I keep getting a warning about a HDD failure, I want to stop this popping up! what do I do? | 05:10 |
| aaron_liuj | Error: git version 1.6.0.4 < minimum required 1.6.6 | 05:10 |
| aaron_liuj | how to do | 05:10 |
| dsnyders | ssmy, of course it's possible. All the nic card does is send and receive ethernet packets. What gets put into those ethernet packets is solely up to the os. | 05:10 |
| sloopy | neil_d, replace the HDD | 05:10 |
| holyguyver | Anyway Losha, tell me this, could my theiry about a file with no ending be the cause? | 05:10 |
| Losha | holyguyver: You cannot do the full range of ntfs operations on ntfs volumes from current linux machines. It is, after all, a proprietary microsoft filesystem format which has been painstakingly reverse engineered (because microsoft won't release the specs) and so not all possible scenarios are handled properly. | 05:10 |
| DasEi | neil_d: verify it's not mean, use smartmontools | 05:10 |
| neil_d | sloopy: all HDD test perfect! | 05:10 |
| brjann | dsnyders: (and of course under the ipv6 tab, if you need it) | 05:11 |
| holyguyver | Losha I know that but ym big question is on weather my theory could be correct | 05:11 |
| sloopy | neil_d, something isnt testing perfect... | 05:11 |
| Losha | holyguyver: if it was ext3, the answer would be no. Since it's ntfs, I can't be sure. Either way, files are not supposed to be 'endless'.... | 05:11 |
| neil_d | DasEi: is smartmontools doing the poppup. | 05:11 |
| DasEi | neil_d: if you're sure, can disable smart for it, but don't come later if there was data-loss, better have a backup or mirror of that drive | 05:11 |
| sloopy | neil_d, check the SMART status | 05:12 |
| holyguyver | Losha what I mean is looping | 05:12 |
| holyguyver | What if the file causes an endless loop read | 05:12 |
| DasEi | neil_d: yes, if smart is enabled, you get such popups | 05:12 |
| Losha | holyguyver: I repeat. On a healthy filesystem, files do not cause looping.... | 05:12 |
| jochar | hi anyone here who can help me with bluetooth problems? | 05:13 |
| holyguyver | Losha this is a folder | 05:13 |
| sloopy | neil_d, System>Administration>Disk Utility and then click the more information link on the HD in question... | 05:13 |
| jochar | i cannot power on bluetooth :( | 05:13 |
| brjann | dsnyders: if network-manager doesn't work, you can try reading http://adventuresinswitching.blogspot.com/2008/05/setup-multiple-ip-addresses-on-ubuntu.html | 05:13 |
| aaron_liuj | gclient sync | 05:13 |

| jochar | im using latest karmic 9.10 32bit | 05:13 |
| Losha | holyguyver: I can't help you any further. My best advice is to run chkdisk on the volume. Feel free to ask for a second opinion from someone else.... | 05:13 |
| aaron_liuj | ............... | 05:14 |

| holyguyver | Losha, thank you, but I refuse to use Windows. | 05:14 |
| holyguyver | Losha I know I know I should abandon NTFS then :p | 05:14 |
| holyguyver | Losha anyway thank you for trying. | 05:14 |
| dsnyders | brjann, I am walking someone through it. They are connected remotely. | 05:14 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, refuse to use windows, but still use NTFS? | 05:15 |
| Losha | holyguyver: your choice entirely. I have no opinion on the matter. I'm simply saying what I think will yield the best results. Best of luck... | 05:15 |
| brjann | dsnyders: good luck with that ;) | 05:15 |
| holyguyver | Losha, thank you. | 05:15 |
| holyguyver | Sloopy, yeah it comes from a long history, in time a person occasionaly makes bad desisions :p | 05:15 |
| xeer | I am trying to route incoming internet to my eth0, but the device connected to the eth0 is picking up the wrong ip (192.168.0.1 instead of 192.168.1.1). would I make the modifications in /etc/networ/interfaces? | 05:16 |
| holyguyver | sloopy back in 2003 I switched to Linux but I decided to partition my external harddrives in NTFS just in case my computer ever died & I needed to access the hardrives in an emergancey from whatever computer was at hand. | 05:16 |
| xeer | network* | 05:17 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, yes, and the bad decision is to not use windows... | 05:17 |
| clickme | hi | 05:17 |
| holyguyver | sloopy however ym system is working & as long as it is I have no need to access them from a differant non-linux system | 05:17 |
| DasEi | xeer: can, need a static ip ? | 05:17 |
| holyguyver | sloopy, I disagree with you under the preaching of RMS | 05:17 |
| d3c0n | why not chose fat instead of ntfs is your main goal is compatibility? | 05:17 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, if they are corrupt, the you do need windows... | 05:17 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, i am not preaching RMS... | 05:18 |

| d3c0n | holyguyver have your tried running something like hirens boot cd? | 05:18 |
| holyguyver | d3c0n, Because fat doesn't allow enough characters in the file/folder names | 05:18 |
| meowbuntu | hi is there kubuntu studio out there | 05:18 |
| darolu | clickme: hi, ask your question! | 05:18 |
| holyguyver | d3c0n, never heard of that CD | 05:18 |
| brjann | holyguyver: when you next consider a filesystem for your external hard drives, you should take into consideration that no linux ntfs filesystem repair utility exists (outside of the very limited ntfsfix) | 05:18 |
| neil_d | sloopy: DasEi: found it thanks. | 05:18 |
| sloopy | neil_d, np | 05:19 |
| d3c0n | holyguyver its a utility disk it contains a small installation of windows but you don't need to run it, there is a program i think its called hdd regenerator on the boot disk | 05:19 |
| clickme | wow i was about to check and see if i did anything wrong how can i add this IRC in empathy | 05:19 |
| d3c0n | it can run directly from the cd in dos | 05:19 |
| holyguyver | Why does no one understand my file system is fine, simply Losha wanted me to check it, that is it, but it is fine, all I want to do is delete a folder. | 05:19 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, why cant you delete it? | 05:20 |
| d3c0n | holyguyver oh im sorry I misunderstood, i thought you were having corruption problems | 05:20 |
| darolu | clickme: enter empathy and press F4, add a new account, on the right panel you'll find a drop-down menu with IRC option in it | 05:20 |
| neil_d | sloopy: it says. "Relocated Sector count: Normalized:93 Worst:93 Threshold:36 Value: 319 Sectors"\ | 05:20 |
| brjann | holyguyver: i'm not saying your filesystem is broken now. i'm merely recommending that you consider that for the future, that's all. | 05:20 |
| clickme | k following | 05:21 |
| holyguyver | sloopy every time I try to delete this folder one copy of it is on NTFS & the other is on ext3 fielsystems on seperate harddrives & it will not delete from either | 05:21 |
| LaPrinj | Hey, I'm in need of some help. | 05:21 |
| brjann | !help | LaPrinj | 05:21 |
| ubottu | LaPrinj: 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. :-) | 05:21 |
| sloopy | neil_d, you have alot of bad sectors that had to be relocated to good sectors, the drive is dying... | 05:21 |
| holyguyver | brjann, please read what I just wrote to sloop | 05:22 |
| d3c0n | holyguyver have you tried taking ownership of the files? | 05:22 |
| holyguyver | d3c0n, I do own the files | 05:22 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, why wont it delete on the ext3? | 05:22 |
| d3c0n | ok just checking i know sometimes permissions can get a lil fussy | 05:22 |
| holyguyver | sloopy, bevcause the folder is corrupted | 05:23 |
| brjann | holyguyver: the folder being corrupted and the filesystem being fine would seem to be mutually exclusive concepts | 05:23 |
| arand | holyguyver: Sounds like chkdsk might be in order, http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ might be useful for that purpose if you do not have a win CD | 05:23 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, and fsck.ext3 cant fix it? | 05:23 |
| neil_d | sloopy: it is only a few months old (and part of a RAID5 setup). I wish there was a way for the threshold to be changed. so it would tell me if it got any worse. | 05:23 |
| holyguyver | I give up, it is only 2GB out of a 1TB harddrive I will just ignore the folder. | 05:24 |
| sloopy | neil_d, if it is only a few months old then RMA it... | 05:24 |
| holyguyver | that better sllopy? | 05:24 |
| holyguyver | sloopy | 05:24 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, corruptions are like rabbits, unless fixed, they spread... | 05:25 |
| abhifx | hi, i am running ubuntu as a guest O/s on windows.. i am having hard times with sharing folder... can someone guide me please | 05:25 |
| tambu | Need some help getting my sound card to work post 9.10 Creative SB Live.. it shows in lspci the emu10k1 modules are loaded in lsmod. but aplay shows "no soundcards found" | 05:25 |
| holyguyver | sloopy it is not a corrupted harddrive, it is onyl 1 folder | 05:25 |
| sloopy | holyguyver, ultimatly it is up to you, what you do about it is your choice... | 05:25 |
| DasEi | abhifx: vbox ? | 05:25 |
| holyguyver | sloopy & as stated I know exactly how it became corrupted | 05:25 |
| LaPrinj | I installed Ubuntu for the first time today on my family computer. I've never used Linux, but always knew that it's not prone to viruses at all like Windows and this computer's close to death (parents/sister kept doing things which caused viruses to load and caused a lot of damage). I got this working, and mostly got the hang of it, except I messed up the video. I tried installing EnvyNG and attempted at installing an unrecommended version o | 05:25 |
| neil_d | sloopy: yeh! I think I will. that will be the second time I done this.. the first one had a complete failure after a couple of days. | 05:26 |
| Losha | holyguyver: can we try and debug the one on ext3 together? | 05:26 |
| abhifx | DasEi, yes | 05:26 |
| DasEi | abhifx: there is #vbox and it's also well mentioned on the faq of vbox'es homepage | 05:26 |
| Maletor | Linux stands for = doesn't work well with gui | 05:26 |
| neil_d | sloopy: it seems that the 1TB drives aren't very reliable. | 05:26 |
| holyguyver | Losha I would rather just forget about it & just lose 2GBs | 05:26 |
| LaPrinj | I hope that description provides as much insight as possible. | 05:26 |
| holyguyver | I have spent too much time onj this | 05:27 |
| sloopy | neil_d, yeah the 500G i have in my file server started getting flakey after only 350 POH's on it... | 05:27 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: your description cut off after "installing an unrecommended version" | 05:27 |
| Losha | holyguyver: ok. If you change your mind, we'll be here... | 05:27 |
| holyguyver | Losha, thank you | 05:27 |
| abhifx | DasEi, i know... but isnt it a more ubuntu specific problem? plus the documentation is not working.. for me | 05:27 |
| LaPrinj | of the ATI driver to make my graphics card work with Ubuntu. I have an ATI Radeon X1650 Pro card in this computer and it's a legacy card which I read isn't supported thru ATI on Ubuntu 9.10. Now, after a lot of failed attempts, this computer is stuck in a void of very low resolution due to no drivers being available. Even the original generic drivers don't work anymore. | 05:27 |
| LaPrinj | Copied and pasted. | 05:27 |
| neil_d | sloopy: "POH"? | 05:27 |
| DomRnate212 | Hello everyone, I'm looking to consolidate and save electricity...I wanted to set up my Ubuntu server to run NAT/Firewall/DHCP/Apache/Fileshare from a 2 or 3 nic setup...is this possible? Couldn't really find anything online regarding this type of setup. Thanks. | 05:28 |
| clickme | ok | 05:28 |
| sloopy | neil_d, WD RMA'ed it and sent me a new one... 3g SATA to replace the 1.5g sata, so free 'upgrade' :') | 05:28 |
| sloopy | neil_d, Power On Hours... | 05:28 |
| LaPrinj | Any ideas? | 05:28 |
| DasEi | abhifx: no, it's more a windows specific problem | 05:28 |
| d3c0n | donrnate i dont see any reason why it cant be done with 2 nics | 05:28 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: since troubleshooting video can be such a pain, if it were my computer and I'd just installed ubuntu today, i would reinstall :) | 05:29 |
| neil_d | sloopy: I didn't know they went to 3G yet.. the highest I have heard of is 2G | 05:29 |
| srinath_man | DomRnate212: Yes, it's possible, but not recommended | 05:29 |
| abhifx | DasEi, ok.. thx. | 05:29 |
| sloopy | neil_d, heh yeah common confusion point, i mean 3.0Gb/s | 05:29 |
| zetheroo | anyone know what the mint IRC channel is? | 05:29 |
| blakkheim | !mintsupport | zetheroo | 05:29 |
| ubottu | zetheroo: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 05:29 |
| neil_d | sloopy: ok. POHs = 104.5 days here | 05:30 |
| zetheroo | blakkheim: thanks | 05:30 |
| clickme | what can i do about kernel updates and nvidia drivers not working after, is there a back app i can use> | 05:30 |
| LaPrinj | However, would there be any way at all to get the video card working? Normally, I could use all the bells and whistles of Ubuntu with no problem with the driver installed for the card. Without it, a lot of features are unusable (ie. the cube to interchange between workspaces). Otherwise, should I go for another distro, like Debian? | 05:30 |
| sloopy | neil_d, yeah definitly too many bad sectors for such a 'young' drive... | 05:31 |
| DomRnate212 | Oh ok, thanks...I didn't know if I'd be risking a network loop or a security hole (I imagine security could be an issue) | 05:31 |
| LaPrinj | Even the wiggly window feature had static lines showing up when I moved them around, which I know should not be the case. | 05:31 |
| Steil | how can i get network manager vpnc plugin to use a rootcert? | 05:31 |
| clickme | sloopy is it a wester digital WD Caviar Green | 05:31 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: did you try the xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd driver? | 05:32 |
| LaPrinj | Or would it be advisable to scrap, and go for the commercialites like Windwos and Macintosh (which are annoying). | 05:32 |
| d3c0n | domrnate you can set your firewall on different nics and assign a zone to them | 05:32 |
| sloopy | clickme, my 500G was a caviar, but dont think it was a green series... | 05:32 |
| LaPrinj | Let me check. | 05:32 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: that's the one which lists the X1650 in the ubuntu repositories | 05:33 |
| sloopy | and damn, i just looked at my 1Tb drive and it has 4 reallocated sectors already and only has a POH's of 70 days... | 05:33 |
| neil_d | sloopy: the other 3 drives all have no bad sectors. | 05:33 |
| LaPrinj | Yes, both that and xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd-dbg are installed. | 05:33 |
| clickme | uhmm | 05:34 |
| clickme | still new at this :p | 05:34 |
| neil_d | sloopy: oh my! | 05:34 |
| dividebyzer0 | Steil - I think this link may be what your looking for - in the comments http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-setup-cisco-vpn-using-vpnc-ubuntu-jaunty-9-04.html | 05:34 |
| DomRnate212 | d3c0n: Ok I'll look into setting up separate zones, thanks. | 05:34 |
| neil_d | sloopy: I like the SpinRite from grc.com. | 05:34 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: okay, research | 05:35 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: sorry, i mean i'm researching ;) | 05:35 |
| Arsin | Is there a command that will suspend after a certian time like how there is "sudo shutdown -h xxxxx | 05:35 |
| sloopy | neil_d, my file server has two 500G, one 1TB, and a 80GB internal and a 650Gb on usb2 | 05:35 |
| LaPrinj | I find it strange. Since, when I go to the System>Preferences>Display panel, I have no way of getting a higher resolution than 800x600 and it shows my monitor as Unknown. Before using EnvyNG, it detected that it was an HP 19" monitor and allowed me to use the native 1024xsomethingIcan'tremember... | 05:35 |
| Losha | DomRnate212: the biggest risk is that you'll get the firewalling configuration wrong somehow, or that someone will compromise your server. I'd think a $40 linksys box to handle the NAT/DHCP/Firewall portion would be cheap insurance.. | 05:35 |
| LaPrinj | Thank you, big time. | 05:36 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: well it may have just broken down and decided to go with a failsafe which doesn't even bother to talk to the monitor | 05:36 |
| LaPrinj | Would that mean the card is fried? | 05:36 |
| eycel | hi | 05:37 |
| neil_d | sloopy: mine has 4 x 1TB drives. | 05:37 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: nono, merely that the system was confused and decided to go with a driver it knew would work but that offers no features. | 05:37 |
| DomRnate212 | Losha: My experience with consumer boxes is that they normally don't handle larger networks of 15 or more people...of course that was several years ago | 05:37 |
| arand | Arsin: possibly "sleep ## && suspend" | 05:37 |
| d3c0n | domrnate what type of network are you trying to setup | 05:38 |
| dividebyzer0 | arsin: apmd – controls power management tasks | 05:38 |
| dividebyzer0 | apm – command line access to print current battery status or suspend power | 05:38 |
| dividebyzer0 | xapm – battery meter for X Window | 05:38 |
| dividebyzer0 | should probably be the apmd command I don't know the options off the top off my head though | 05:38 |
| Jordan_U | neil_d, A drive that would benefit spinrite is probably on its last legs anyway. | 05:38 |
| Flonnezilla | Hey, can someone tell me how to find out what version of a package is installed? I'm trying to help someone out and I am not really familiar with apt-get and such | 05:38 |
| Jordan_U | Flonnezilla, apt-cache policy packagename | 05:39 |
| LaPrinj | Damn. What are my options? The only one I found through research was to switch to Debian or an easy alternative with an older something that allows the original ATI drivers to work. The other one was to wait until ATI decided to get its corporate head out of its corporate ass and pay some attention to providing up-to-date support for Linux. | 05:39 |
| DomRnate212 | d3c0n: One nic to Internet, one nic to handle DHCP and NAT passthrough to switch on internal network, and an Apache server to reach both | 05:39 |
| Flonnezilla | Jordan_U: thanks | 05:39 |
| sloopy | neil_d, the 650 is backup, only stuff that cant be lost is 'mirrored' on it from the others... | 05:39 |
| LaPrinj | I highly doubt that ATI would do that either. | 05:39 |
| d3c0n | domrnate perhaps i should rephrase, is this a home or office network? | 05:39 |
| dividebyzer0 | LaPrinj: I wish ATI would do that... | 05:39 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: the X1650 should work, it's got a driver and everything. :) | 05:39 |
| LaPrinj | Haha. | 05:40 |
| Jordan_U | Flonnezilla, You're welcome. | 05:40 |
| DomRnate212 | d3c0n: Sorry, small office. | 05:40 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: you can always try going through the xorg reconfiguration and trying to select the driver manually | 05:40 |
| Losha | DomRnate212: it's true, the consumer boxes aren't sized for larger networks. There's a cost vs. security trade off though... | 05:40 |
| LaPrinj | I really wish. Should I reinstall and then go for installing only select packages? And if so, which ones should I only reinstall. | 05:40 |
| LaPrinj | Hmm, how would I do that? | 05:41 |
| Steil | Hi guys, I'm having issues with network-manager-vpnc not wanting to connect to a vpn that requires a rootcert, any ideas? | 05:41 |
| Maz3Mike | hey guys | 05:41 |
| Maz3Mike | I just installed the server version of ubuntu | 05:41 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: are you logged on to that machine now? | 05:41 |
| Maz3Mike | However, I dont see the inittab..how do I access this? | 05:41 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: as in, are you talking to us on that machine? | 05:41 |
| LaPrinj | Yeah, for sure. | 05:42 |
| sloopy | LaPrinj, does ddcprobe give any info? | 05:42 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: bummer, as this procedure involves killing xorg and dropping to a virtual terminal ;) | 05:42 |
| Losha | Maz3Mike: inittab is gone, I forget what replaced it. What are you trying to do? | 05:42 |
| DomRnate212 | Losha: Yeah, it sounds like I'd be better off with 2 linux boxes or a commercial type of NAT/Router... | 05:42 |
| DomRnate212 | Losha: just trying to conserve :-) | 05:43 |
| LaPrinj | I'm not sure what that is. I just started on Linux today... Well, technically yesterday EST. | 05:43 |
| d3c0n | domrnate I tend to agree with losha, when dealing with buisness security and what not such as financial files and what its not really the time to cheap out, its kinda like tires or brakes. You might look into something like the cisco linksys rv082 or something similar they have dual wan if you want redundancy or you can load balance | 05:43 |
| Maz3Mike | Losha: I want to go from runlevel 3 to 5..sooo it should be very simple | 05:43 |
| LaPrinj | I'll do whatever it takes. I just want to give my parents a failsafe option while gratifying my graphical curiosities. | 05:43 |
| sloopy | LaPrinj, it reads the DDC info from the monitor and displays it... | 05:43 |
| Losha | DomRnate212: I would think the cost of a breakin far exceeds the cost of an additional box... | 05:43 |
| LaPrinj | I'd assume not since the display preferences shows it as Unknown. | 05:44 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: here's the procedure: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/columns/how_to_fix_your_computers_graphics_with_dpkg-reconfigure | 05:44 |
| sloopy | LaPrinj, try running it... | 05:44 |
| cyberbluntz | htop | 05:44 |
| d3c0n | Domrnate however like i did say before it is possible, and thats what the question was | 05:44 |
| LaPrinj | Perhaps... Would remote desktop viewer help showing the problem? | 05:45 |
| === kaie is now known as Guest64291 | ||
| brjann | LaPrinj: so if you're going to attempt that I'd either print it out or have it up on another computer | 05:45 |
| Losha | Maz3Mike: It should, but ubuntu has pretty much done away with runlevels and the result is a mess using 'upstart' or some such. Not one of their better ideas... | 05:45 |
| natethegreat1419 | Hello Everyone. | 05:45 |
| MrPockets | so if i want to add another place to the PLACES menu, ..how? | 05:45 |
| natethegreat1419 | Bookmark it Pockets | 05:45 |
| brjann | MrPockets: via the Bookmarks menu in any file browser window | 05:45 |
| DomRnate212 | d3c0n and Losha : Well I agree with that lol, I just was checking to see if it was a common setup or not, I'll probably go with a lower powered box for NAT/Firewall/DHCP and a larger one for Webserver/Fileshare | 05:46 |
| clickme | yay got it working | 05:46 |
| clickme | thnx | 05:46 |
| LaPrinj | I have a laptop. I'll open this on that and go through it. | 05:46 |
| DomRnate212 | d3c0n and Losha: Thank you for advice :-) | 05:46 |
| LaPrinj | If I hit any roadblocks, I'll get right back here. | 05:46 |
| LaPrinj | I really really appreciate your help brjann. Thanks so much. | 05:46 |
| d3c0n | domrnate no problem, hope it helped you out a lil | 05:47 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: no problem, hope it helps. when you pick your driver, try either radeon or radeonhd, and make sure to leave the defaults alone when the guide says to :) | 05:47 |
| Losha | DomRnate212: I would feel safer with such a setup. The NAT/Firewall/DHCP doesn't actually need much juice just to ferry packets back and forth... | 05:47 |
| cyberbluntz | whats the haldaemo | 05:47 |
| brjann | cyberbluntz: the process that run the hardware abstraction layer | 05:48 |
| clickme | i have a few problems | 05:48 |
| LaPrinj | Absolutely. | 05:48 |
| LaPrinj | Thank you again. I'll be saying that a lot more when this thing works again. | 05:48 |
| LaPrinj | Take care! | 05:49 |
| clickme | how can i restore Cairos-Dock Themes | 05:49 |
| Flonnezilla | is there a way for someone running xubuntu 8.04 to install a package from the 9.10 repos? | 05:49 |
| brjann | LaPrinj: heh, you too :) | 05:49 |
| brjann | Flonnezilla: not a good way :) | 05:49 |
| Flonnezilla | :{ | 05:49 |
| Flonnezilla | he needs a newer version of qt to compile an emulator | 05:49 |
| brjann | Flonnezilla: the trouble is, all but the most trivial of applications will have wildly different dependencies, ... yeah, there's almost no way you could get 9.10's version of qt working on 8.04 | 05:50 |
| Flonnezilla | damn, that sucks | 05:50 |
| brjann | Flonnezilla: is he sure he has to compile it himself? | 05:50 |
| cyberbluntz | brjann may I send you a pm? | 05:51 |
| Flonnezilla | that's what the compilation guide says to do | 05:51 |
| brjann | cyberbluntz: sure | 05:51 |
| Flonnezilla | hold on i have a link | 05:51 |
| Flonnezilla | http://byuu.org/bsnes/compilation-guide | 05:51 |
| brjann | Flonnezilla: no, i mean, maybe someone's already compiled a binary package for 8.04? | 05:51 |
| Sa[i]nT | When i right-click my desktop and go to "Create Document", it just says "No Templates Installed". How then, would I install templates? | 05:51 |
| Flonnezilla | oh | 05:51 |
| Flonnezilla | I dunno | 05:51 |
| Flonnezilla | how would I go about searching for that? is there a site for this kind of thing, or should I just go to google? | 05:52 |
| Flonnezilla | also, I just have to say, this channel is a lot more helpful than any other linux-related channel I've ever used | 05:53 |
| brjann | Flonnezilla: a little of both. lots of packages can be found at launchpad.net, but it can be hard to find stuff | 05:53 |

| indus | fridayblue, it shows as a usb device basically | 06:07 |

| brjann | Ascavasaion: boo. sorry :( | 06:49 |
| blakkheim | !repeat | raj, thinkfast | 06:49 |
| ubottu | raj, thinkfast: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 06:49 |
| dividebyzer0 | Ascavasaion: that's one that you should be able to run after disabling bluetooth | 06:49 |
| thinkfast | federico asked me what i needed again | 06:49 |
| thinkfast | ie. image.jpg.jpg image.JPG i want to rename them all to image.jpg | 06:50 |
| kondo_ | dividebyzore: i'M using wine 1.1.14 | 06:50 |
| Whopper | basically renaming an all caps JPG to a lowercase jpg | 06:50 |
| syk | raj, tell them how to start the terminal ;) | 06:50 |
| federico | but do they have a specific name this images or just image (1) image (2)... | 06:50 |
| thinkfast | and all .jpg.jpg to just .jpg | 06:50 |
| brjann | thinkfast: you can use the rename utility, like so: rename 's/.JPG/.jpg/' * && rename 's/.jpg.jpg/.jpg/' * | 06:50 |
| brjann | probably a more elegant way to do it, but eh | 06:50 |
| dividebyzer0 | kondo_ I believe you need wine 1.1.32 as seen here http://www.wine-reviews.net/wine-reviews/microsoft/office-2007-in-ubuntu-910-with-wine-1132.html | 06:50 |
| Whopper | Ah, I gotcha | 06:50 |

| brjann | Ascavasaion: oh, wait. bluetooth config stuff is likely stored on a per-user basis, so the purge/reinstall methods wouldn't touch them anyway. you need to seek out and destroy the config stuff in your home directory | 06:53 |

| cyberbluntz | omy | 06:58 |
| Ascavasaion | Nope, still not working... bluetooth is badly supported in Ubuntu | 06:59 |
| dividebyzer0 | Ascavasaion: Configuration information is located in the /etc/bluetooth directory, along with the /etc/pcmcia directory for notebooks. The HCI information is saved in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf, and RFCOMM configuration information is in /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf. The Bluetooth service script, /etc/rc.d/init.d/bluetooth, is used to start and stop Bluetooth services. This script will start up the Bluetooth daemon for HCI devices, hcid, and run any dete | 06:59 |

| frankS2 | lanks: its grub | 07:38 |

| arand | Jon-: Calm down. | 07:39 |
| AndyS2 | chd: it's a little program made by the wireshark people so you don't have to start wireshark as root :) | 07:39 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: do you still have the .deb downloaded? if not, download it again please? | 07:39 |
| lanks | its says the program grub is not currently installed | 07:39 |
| meowbuntu | i have it | 07:39 |
| meowbuntu | i reinstalled with same error | 07:39 |
| AndyS2 | chd: you only have to run the network dumping utility dumpcap as root, make the dump readable and open it as a user in wireshark | 07:39 |
| meowbuntu | ^ brjann | 07:39 |
| arand | Jon-: what is the error of apt-get update? | 07:39 |
| Jon- | arand: I have a midterm tomorrow I need rest and I need apt-get update to be working for tomorrow too. This is a bit of an emergency for me. I can't find anything new in /etc/apt/sources.list how the hell do I remove this new entry? | 07:39 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: does the installation process give an error? | 07:39 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: or is it just running it? | 07:39 |
| meowbuntu | no | 07:40 |
| arand | Jon-: PPAs gets added in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | 07:40 |
| meowbuntu | it runs it | 07:40 |
| sYskk | ive installed ubuntu on VirtualBox and cant recall my password. whenever I boot, it loads with my username and doesnt prompt me for a password... is there any way to reset my pass? | 07:41 |
| meowbuntu | brjann, ^ | 07:41 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: i'm sorry, maybe i wasn't clear. does the installation processing finish successfully? | 07:41 |
| meowbuntu | brjann, you where adn i said it runs it | 07:41 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: hehe, that's what I'm unclear about :) what runs what? | 07:41 |
| Jon- | arand: I did an rm of the 404ing headers, but now apt-get update still freezes on 99 percent saying "waiting for headers" | 07:42 |
| lanks | hmm i had two partitions one had ubuntu 9.10 desktop and I just install windows on the other, now when I boot it just boots windows any ideas as to how I can repair the grub boot? | 07:42 |
| Jon- | [bunch of lines stripped] | 07:42 |
| sYskk | is it possible that root still has the default password... ive tried all my usual passes and they wont work | 07:42 |
| Haffe | lanks: You need to reinstall grub. | 07:42 |
| meowbuntu | brjann, the install runs as it is supposed to with no errors comming up and everthing seems fine. it works as all other apps i have installed. fine | 07:42 |
| Haffe | Google after 'restoring grub after windows install' | 07:42 |
| brjann | sYskk: root doesn't have a password | 07:42 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: okay, good | 07:42 |
| meowbuntu | brjann, root has a password its the user login password | 07:43 |
| Jon- | arand: It's very late here and I need this done, please a moment of your time. Freezing, 99 percent, no noticeable error messages, waiting for headers. | 07:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | sYskk, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword | 07:43 |
| ardchoille | !root | 07:44 |
| ubottu | 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 | 07:44 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: no, root's password is actually empty, so that root logins always fail. | 07:44 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: yeah, what ubottu said. :) | 07:44 |
| Jon- | arand: I did a rm badpackagestart* from /etc/apt/sources.d/ and now it still is freezing at 99% | 07:44 |
| brjann | meowbuntu: anyway! still have that terminal open? | 07:44 |
| cyberbluntz | Woot! got it set to random mac | 07:45 |
| meowbuntu | now i am getting sick of this opensong failing i'm going to use the less than perfect wine install soon | 07:45 |
| arand | Jon-: Jon- hmm, that is actually happening here as well (freeze on headers) what server are you using for updates? | 07:45 |
| sYskk | <ubottu: i know but i cant even recall my own password... the weird thing is that im not prompted for any password at boot | 07:45 |
| meowbuntu | yes i do brjann | 07:45 |
| Jon- | arand: waterloo | 07:45 |

| priyank | ji hunterfett just open the filw with open player and installed the req. codecs.actually ull need int. conn. as soon as ull open the file to play it will ask for missing codecs it will automatically go and find the codecs install them | 08:22 |
| sixofour | something tells me that rt kernal not being default, means there is a downside to having the rt kernal..what is it? | 08:22 |
| HunterFett | Well I just installed the restricted extras package, I think. | 08:23 |
| priyank | hi everone i am having problem with my installed ubuntu on my ext hdd. that the system slowdowns with normal visual effect it works good with none visual effect.i have 2gb of my swap partition.my system was working completely fine till yesterday in normal mode but i dont what has happend to it today.i also had updated with latest updates of ubuntu till yeterday but it was working fine but today a hell.can any body help me? | 08:23 |

| x-calibur | orson: i want to use it for sharing foto's and don't want them deleted. | 08:24 |
| arand | sixofour: Simply install the linux-rt package, if that specific kernel doesn't work, it should be possible to simply boot into the normal version | 08:24 |
| x-calibur | orson: i understand that. | 08:25 |
| sixofour | you mean apt-get linux-rt? | 08:25 |
| kla | sixofour, sudo apt-get install <package> | 08:25 |
| kla | sixofour, 'apt-cache search <term>' to find out what you're looking ofr | 08:25 |

| kla | sixofour, don't use it if you're running any servers | 08:27 |

| indus | scy_th3, hi | 08:47 |
| cyberbluntz | why does it deny me when I try to use tor? | 08:48 |
| indus | scy_th3, use the ioquake3 installer , google for it | 08:48 |
| kla | jad, under /etc/network/if-up.d/ or somesuch | 08:48 |
| indus | scy_th3, the quake 3 installer has a lot of problems, just google ioquake3 and use it to install | 08:48 |
| scy_th3 | indus, thanks, I have that installed already. The sound 'does' seem to work in it. But it does not connect to the servers I like to play. | 08:48 |
| indus | scy_th3, yeah hmm that i dont know maybe change internet settings or join direct with ip adress | 08:49 |
| indus | scy_th3, try quake4 its great | 08:49 |
| dork | !pt > danx | 08:49 |
| ubottu | danx, please see my private message | 08:49 |
| kla | cyberbluntz, you will have to edit the tor config file and configure which listen address you want then connect to it as it shows | 08:49 |

| === mun_ is now known as mun | ||
| scy_th3 | indus, thanks, but there is just something about quake3 that keeps me...q4 is okay but the psychics are much different. | 08:50 |

| brand0n | whats the hotkey to activate the desktop cube? | 08:50 |
| scy_th3 | indus, when using slackware a while back, all I had to do is add the 'user' to the /etc/group audio and it would work | 08:51 |
| orson | nomnex: mv dir1 dir2 | 08:51 |
| brjann | nomnex: you can specify more than one source using mv; the last argument is always the destination. so mv dir1 dir2 dir3 will move dir1 and dir2 into dir3 | 08:51 |
| scy_th3 | indus, I appreciate your help though. | 08:51 |
| syk_ | brand0n, install ccsm in the software center, it lets you configure _everything_ you need in compiz | 08:51 |

| Unislash | hey all, i was wondering what your opinions on using gparted to *resize* my windows partition (ntfs of course) is. i'm making it larger, if it matters (for storage) :-) | 08:56 |
| cyberbluntz | what do i change it too? | 08:56 |
| p1oooop | home sweet home 127.0.0.1 | 08:57 |
| nomnex | brjann, the second option is what I was looking for, many thanks | 08:57 |
| Unislash | i've read places that it's kind of risky to resize partitions, but i have no idea what effects chances or even what kind of chances there are... hence the question | 08:57 |
| brjann | nomnex: no problem :) | 08:57 |
| brjann | Unislash: enlarging ntfs partitions with gparted should be fine, though here's a warning from gparted's faq: When resizing boot NTFS partitions, it is advisable to perform this as a single operation only. After resizing, boot into Windows twice to allow Windows to perform its checking operations. | 08:58 |

| raddy | Hello Everybody | 09:00 |
| Unislash | brjann: hmmm, interesting. i'll keep reading stuff :) | 09:00 |
| raddy | I authored a german language site in ubuntu using komposer | 09:00 |
| raddy | I haven't specified a selected font to be used anywhere. | 09:01 |
| Gadu | tried the usual commands from removing them from the maintenance shell to no avail and I don't know how to remove packages from an installed system with a live cd | 09:01 |
| raddy | But when i uploaded my web site to internet, german charactors are not appearing :( | 09:01 |
| arand | Gadu: It'sprobably not the packages that are wrong per see, but the filesystem that's messy | 09:02 |
| Gadu | everything was working famously until I installed those | 09:02 |
| Gadu | which was the only change I had made prior to the last reboot it had | 09:02 |
| raddy | can anybody help me. | 09:02 |
| raddy | Your help is urgently required. | 09:02 |
| fivetwentysix | raddy, what was the question? | 09:03 |
| arand | Gadu: It may be that in the process of writing exposed something corrupt in the filesystem, or a bd block on the disk... | 09:03 |
| Gadu | and I will certainly look into that after removing those packages | 09:03 |
| Gadu | XD | 09:03 |
| meatbun | i am on ubuntu 9.04 was using 8.x, after this , transimssion sucks. did htye put an old version in there? | 09:03 |
| Gadu | just to be certain | 09:04 |
| Cyber_Akuma | Is 5gb enough space to set aside for Xubuntu? | 09:04 |
| brjann | raddy: #kde might be able to help more, since you were using komposer | 09:04 |
| raddy | fivetwentysix : i authered a german language site using komposer, at the time i didn't specify any fonts to be used, all was fine until i uploaded the website, not german text or not appearing correctly even in my own system. | 09:05 |
| arand | Gadu: You will probably need to get around the filesystem errors first, the package problem is secondary in this case.. | 09:05 |
| p1oooop | Cyber_Akuma: it should be enough, but you can't do much with 5GB | 09:05 |
| raddy | brjann: Don't joke, kompozer is a mozilla based html editor | 09:05 |
| arand | Gadu: The filesystem which has failed, are there critical data on it? | 09:05 |
| fivetwentysix | raddy, so the problem is the site or your computer not dis-playing German text? | 09:06 |
| brjann | raddy: oh, my bad. i see the K, i think KDE. | 09:06 |
| Gadu | I'm still not convinced that installing a package uncovered some underlying problem. there must be a way to uninstall a package with a live cd, chroot perhaps? | 09:06 |
| raddy | fivetwentysix: yeah. | 09:06 |
| nomnex | I have got 3 files (probably movies). Extension .md0, .mdf, .mds, how can I play them | 09:06 |
| fivetwentysix | raddy, may I have a link to your website? | 09:06 |
| arand | Gadu: I recently had a discussion about what to recommend users in this case, might be worth a read, sine the dicision on how much precaution to take is yours: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/386848/ | 09:07 |

| raddy | fivetwentysix: It won't display correctly for you too. | 09:07 |
| nomnex | ZykoticK9, thanks, I will mount them as an ISO then | 09:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | nomnex, i think AcetoneISO can do it - can't just use regular loopback cd mount i'm affriad | 09:08 |
| nomnex | ZykoticK9, got it, thanks | 09:09 |
| orson | raddy: broken charset, iso8859-1 and umlauts are .... baeh | 09:13 |

| === assos_ is now known as assos | ||
| stage2 | Slik_: it may not offer any, you can also try sudo aptitude update first, but probably doesnt have any | 09:56 |
| Mohammad[B] | stage2, .mozilla/plugin and .mozilla/firefox/ is empty | 09:56 |
| stage2 | Mohammad[B]: there is another location, ill search in a sec | 09:57 |
| erUSUL | stage2: becouse the machine does not have any hardware that needs them ??? | 09:57 |

| m_fulder | hello | 09:57 |
| stage2 | Slik_: erUSUL: cause ubuntu may not support the hardware | 09:58 |
| stage2 | Slik_: whats the specific driver your lookin for? | 09:58 |
| m_fulder | I've added this two lines to my rc.local file : sudo umount /media/PACKARDBELL | 09:58 |
| m_fulder | sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/external still my external HDD won't remount on startup why? | 09:58 |
| Myrtti | m_fulder: you should do it in fstab | 09:58 |
| erUSUL | stage2: or (more likely) because ubuntu has *free* drivers for all the hard in the machine | 09:58 |
| m_fulder | Myrtti, what's fstab? | 09:59 |
| erUSUL | !fstab | 09:59 |

| indus | i have a nice cd authored with flash , i cant play that in ubuntu | 10:05 |
| erUSUL | indus: with a browser that has the flash plugin | 10:05 |
| indus | its a cd | 10:05 |
| erUSUL | indus: browsers can open files | 10:05 |
| indus | i tried with browser but its absolutely hopeless | 10:05 |
| indus | no images nothing , no hyperlink no sound | 10:06 |

| erUSUL | m_fulder: hotplugged devices like usb flash and disks are mounted for users with devicekit | 10:08 |
| indus | reboot to view a cd rom yikes | 10:08 |
| m_fulder | so I should just add the mounting options manually if I want to mount my external to another direction erUSUL ? | 10:09 |
| AndyGraybeal | so i have a question, i have two NICs, and two networks - one NIC is 192.168.2.200, it's bridged to my KVM/Libvirt VM's. the other NIC is 10.0.0.1, it's set to run dhcpd to terminal clients. i want the terminal clients to get to the VMs as well as route out to the internet (192.168.2.200 is internet facing, though through another NAT on my firewall) | 10:09 |
| AndyGraybeal | how would i do this? | 10:09 |
| Myrtti | m_fulder: gets mounted on startup, or when you login? is it an external hdd? | 10:09 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Hi all. I have just put a new drive in my ubuntu box. It needs to be formatted.....i need it as a slave just for storage....do I format it with ext2 filesytem? | 10:09 |
| indus | erUSUL, havent you heard of a flash authored cd? | 10:09 |
| m_fulder | Myrtti, yes it's external | 10:09 |
| erUSUL | indus: yes; they are windows only what can i say :( | 10:09 |
| indus | all presentation material is authored with it | 10:09 |
| m_fulder | and yes it gets mounted auto. | 10:09 |
| Myrtti | m_fulder: that's because of some external hard drive detection magic | 10:09 |
| indus | i tried installing with wine shockwave, but not sure how that works | 10:10 |
| erUSUL | m_fulder: man devkit-disks | 10:10 |
| m_fulder | ok :) but will it still remount if I write where it shoul be mounted in my fstab Myrtti ? | 10:10 |

| obiwan_ | i got a router, but it isn't routers thing | 11:16 |

| cyberbluntz | ok ty | 11:18 |
| obiwan_ | oh llut | 11:19 |
| obiwan_ | llutz i meant 127.0.1.1 did you notice right? it's not 127.0.0.1 | 11:19 |
| llutz | obiwan_: yes i misread you, sry | 11:20 |
| orbital_fox | Shambat, have you checkec for other devise names? i remember wireless interfaces sometimes would get other names | 11:20 |
| Shambat | orbital_fox: do you mean other than wlan0? | 11:20 |
| Shambat | there is nothing in iwconfig or ifconfig | 11:21 |
| zetheroo | OpenOffice seems really glitchy | 11:21 |
| orbital_fox | Shambat, yeah.. i dont remember what the other name used to be, but there is another common one | 11:21 |
| orbital_fox | is it just a usb wireless adapter? | 11:21 |
| zetheroo | constantly greying out like it wants to freeze up | 11:21 |
| zetheroo | and I have HEAPS of resources .. so it's not that . | 11:22 |

| zetheroo | orbital_fox: is that what it is ...? | 11:22 |
| orbital_fox | zetheroo, i cant say for sure, but im sure its part of it, if not the only problem | 11:23 |
| obiwan_ | ok i understood anyway llutz | 11:23 |
| Shambat | orbital_fox: owconfig has only lo and eth0 ... eth0 is the ethernet port | 11:23 |
| obiwan_ | llutz fyi if you didn't know, all 127.x.x.x are loopback ip's. today i learnt something new :) | 11:23 |
| zetheroo | orbital_fox: that is really going to have to change ... I am only working on a few presentations and documents but it feels so jerky and bogged down ... :( | 11:24 |
| orbital_fox | Shambat, ok, so it a wireless internet adapter? | 11:24 |
| obiwan_ | gotta go take care guys bye | 11:24 |
| Shambat | orbital_fox: yeah | 11:24 |
| orbital_fox | zetheroo, here is a tip from my experience.. if you have a lot of pictures in them.. crop them with gimp instead of resizing them in the Presentation app | 11:25 |
| zetheroo | what does it mean when I have a "Zombie" process in System monitor? | 11:25 |
| orbital_fox | Shambat, have you checked the hardware compatibility list? | 11:25 |
| zetheroo | orbital_fox: yeah ... that is what I do ;) | 11:25 |
| orbital_fox | zetheroo, the app has gone rogue and its not responding | 11:25 |
| Shambat | orbital_fox: it should be ok, the module was in the kernel | 11:25 |
| zetheroo | orbital_fox: hmm .. it's nautilus and there are 6 of them in Zombie state | 11:26 |

| DexterLB | w00t I succeeded in customising ubuntu in a way that allows me to work a lot faster in it than in windoze and confuses the rest of my family enough to not touch my stuff | 11:32 |
| erUSUL | zetheroo: reasonable; most zombie/uninterruptable processes are the result of a filesystem disappearing (unplugg the usb disk without umounting) | 11:32 |

| rethus | acicula: strange things | 12:17 |
| quietone | display preferences has decided to no longer find my HDMI TV. Where do I begin to fix this? | 12:17 |
| archman | erUSUL, but why, if the used ram is less than free swap space...interesting... | 12:17 |
| acicula | i think its more, swap needs to hold used swap+mem? | 12:17 |
| rethus | acicula: have reload system and starts cleanly with keyboard | 12:17 |
| rethus | do not understnd this | 12:18 |
| archman | acicula, aah :/ | 12:18 |
| ragsagar | btw i tried grub-install in ubuntu 9.10's partition, but iam getting " No such disk " or something when booting before the menu | 12:18 |
| acicula | no such disk means it cant find the disk | 12:18 |
| archman | acicula, erm, i'd have it enough anyway :D | 12:18 |
| dratone | erUSUL: thanks anyway :) I'll try more when I'm at the server. Might be able to do something then (though I doubt it). I appreciate the lesson about /sys though! Will come in handy | 12:18 |
| erUSUL | archman: the suspend code is not very refined. it just copies everything on unused swap. so the real rquirement is "free swap equal or more than total ram" | 12:18 |
| acicula | make sense to just carbon copy the ram | 12:19 |
| archman | erUSUL, :( | 12:19 |
| archman | erUSUL, thanks for the help :) | 12:19 |
| acicula | instead of trying to sift out the fragments | 12:19 |
| acicula | (that are in use) | 12:19 |
| erUSUL | archman: tuxonice is more refined in that sense it can compress the ram afaik | 12:19 |
| jyu_ | ciaoa | 12:20 |
| jyu_ | sorry | 12:20 |

| swiftarrow | Hi all, I have a problem, and it seems to be rather obscure, since I can't find a solution via Google :O Here it is: I'm trying to install FreeCAD, which depends on python-pivy, which depends on libqt4-opengl_4.5.3 The problem is that the latest version in the repos is only 4.5.0, so I can't install python-pivy. I've got the debs for 4.5.3 from the debian repos, but when I install them, synaptic says half my other programs are broken and wants | 12:22 |
| swiftarrow | to remove them before doing anything else... Any ideas? TIA! | 12:22 |
| erUSUL | archman: no | 12:22 |
| Dr_Willis | swiftarrow: you should look for a ubuntu ppa for that package. or use source perhaps. | 12:23 |
| archman | erUSUL: aaah it can also write to file | 12:23 |
| jyu_ | qualcuno mi aiuta | 12:24 |

| acicula | swiftarrow: paste output on pastebin, such packages can sometime remove a lib that stuff depends on | 12:24 |

| acicula | ppa/building for source may be easier then using a random deb(just cuz its deb wont mean it work with ubuntu) | 12:24 |

| phnom | |pez|: Yep, and it works fine | 12:25 |
| swiftarrow | Dr_Willis, acicula, When I installed using sudo dpkg -i *, it upgraded the packages, but after that if I try to run synaptic or apt-get it says that a number of my programs (virtualbox, inkscape, scribus, etc) have broken dependancies, so It want's to remove those programs. I've downgraded the packages thinking that there must be a better way. | 12:25 |

| ragsagar | acicula , but i was using debain's grub to boot ubuntu 9.04 without any probs | 12:28 |
| phnom | |pez|: I think the wine in the default repos are of a earlier version then 1.2 | 12:28 |
| acicula | ragsagar: the way you described it the bootloader used by ubuntu is not a factor in the boot process | 12:29 |

| 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 | 12:35 |
| acicula | eto: well i dont have my crystal ball here so i dont know, lts just means more focus on stability and continuity where as non-lts focus more on features. | 12:36 |
| ragsagar | acicula, http://pastebin.com/KQkSmGSG | 12:36 |

| swiftarrow | acicula, Thanks for your reply. I _Already have_ the packages to install the latest ones, but when I install the latest version, synaptic says that my other software has broken dependancies (and doesn't give up until I restore the older versions). I'm just upgrading a package, so is there a way for it to recognize that? | 12:38 |
| === sebi_` is now known as sebi` | ||
| ragsagar | acicula, yeah thats the second one | 12:39 |
| swiftarrow | acicula, I'm installing via dpkg, not via repos. I've only found debian repos to have this package | 12:39 |
| ragsagar | acicula, first one is /dev/sda | 12:39 |
| acicula | swiftarrow: you cannot selectively upgrade a package within a disribution, nor mixin random debs and expect it to work, thats not how a distribution works unfortunatly | 12:39 |
| acicula | ragsagar: yeah but your grub says hd1,8 | 12:39 |
| acicula | so thats corresponds with /dev/sdb9 | 12:40 |

| ragsagar | acicula, yeah | 12:40 |
| Kangarooo | i mean restartd ? | 12:40 |
| ragsagar | acicula, hdd8 -> (hd1,8) | 12:41 |
| acicula | swiftarrow: well repos as in ppa can work, but it depends on how well the ppa packages are maintained, but typically it should solve the depencies | 12:41 |
| acicula | ragsagar: try hd1,7 | 12:41 |
| ragsagar | acicula, sda6 -> (hd0,4) | 12:41 |
| ragsagar | i think i tried it | 12:41 |
| Dan_E | how do you get rid of the popup up box that says restart in 60 sec, shutdown in 60 sec,etc? | 12:41 |
| ragsagar | s/sda6/sda5 | 12:42 |
| swiftarrow | acicula, I've already resolved the dependancies for the upgrades. it's my existing software that complains of being broken, but this is just a minor version change. Let's say I just force install them, would it be catastrophic? | 12:42 |
| ragsagar | acicula, ok let me try, will be back :) | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Dan_E: whats the name of the window? | 12:42 |
| === Nakeido2 is now known as TimothyA | ||
| Futki | how to reboot in a given time crontab? | 12:43 |
| Dan_E | restart, and shutdown | 12:43 |
| acicula | swiftarrow: well the software is build against a lib of say version 1.0.1, and you force it to work with 1.0.2, it will probably work, but it also breaks the dependency system, as far as that goes it will now think there is no 1.0.1 library anymore since you are forcing stuff | 12:43 |
| digitig | Ok, can anybody who isn't a bot help with my sound problem? The links I received seem to be all about no sound, not mangled sound. | 12:43 |
| acicula | swiftarrow: so short answer yes it may work, and yes you can forcibly install debs that are not packaged for your distribution, but well you take a risk in doing so | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | digitig: run: sudo lshw -C sound | grep -i product] | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | digitig: run: sudo lshw -C sound | grep -i product | 12:44 |
| swiftarrow | acicula, is there a way to make it think that the 4.5.0 is still installed? sym links or something? (grey area for me) | 12:44 |
| acicula | in that sense a broken dependency does not mean a broken package per se | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | digitig: then websearch that, the line will show the sound chip you have and will help in websearches | 12:44 |
| acicula | swiftarrow: dependencies are maintained in apt itself | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Dan_E: if you run: ps -ef | less can you see a likely process to kill? | 12:45 |

| acicula | pdani: try ubuntu+1 | 12:45 |

| swiftarrow | acicula, right, I've had to do that before... well, I guess I'll just try it and see. downgrading again isn't hard. Thanks for your time! | 12:46 |
| acicula | Futki: crontab -e and add the command? | 12:46 |
| pdani | thx | 12:46 |
| acicula | swiftarrow: i'd just grab the source and dunk it in your home or /locl | 12:46 |
| acicula | err /usr/local/ | 12:46 |
| Dan_E | no | 12:46 |

| ralle | anyone know how to switch the default vsftpd directory to the default apache2 directory so i can connect with my ftp client to the webserver? | 13:09 |
| Stargaze | it says: There is no application installed for PGP/MIME-encrypted message header files | 13:09 |
| ikonia | ralle: the directory has nothing to do with it | 13:10 |
| Stargaze | solutions i found on google do not help me | 13:10 |
| ikonia | ralle: just remove the choot options and nagivate to the webserver Document Root | 13:10 |
| acicula | ghufran: means there is no package by that name | 13:10 |
| theadmin | Stargaze: Uh, guess you removed your PGP client. try "gpg -d /path/to/file.gpg" | 13:10 |
| acicula | ghufran: try searching with apt-cache search for the apropriate package? | 13:10 |
| Stargaze | i turned the files into .asc files, but they need to be decrypted, too | 13:10 |
| Dan_E | will that remove it from the grub or do i have to do that manually? | 13:10 |
| theadmin | Dan_E: It will be done automatically | 13:11 |
| ghufran | acicula: this package is mentioned in multiple how-tos | 13:11 |
| Dan_E | and do i have to do a grub update? | 13:11 |
| ralle | ikonia: than what do i have to do? | 13:11 |
| ghufran | acicula: i am unable to find it through cache search though | 13:11 |
| theadmin | Dan_E: It's one of post-removal triggers for kernels, so basically no | 13:11 |
| Dan_E | thanks! | 13:11 |
| acicula | ghufran: qed.., what howto are you following | 13:11 |
| acicula | is it updated for 9.04? | 13:12 |

| acicula | ghufran: its from 2004, try searching for something more current? | 13:12 |
| acicula | !lamp | ghufran | 13:12 |
| ubottu | ghufran: 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+) | 13:12 |
| theadmin | Stargaze: Uh, are you sure that's normal PGP file? I mean, it might be damaged or something. | 13:12 |
| ghufran | acicula: doesnt look like it is .. i am on 9.1 but thats the one that came up in google | 13:12 |
| acicula | i'd start there | 13:12 |
| acicula | ghufran: your googlefu needs some practice, what search terms did you use? | 13:13 |
| ghufran | acicula: install ssl ubuntu 9.1 | 13:13 |
| dratone | With modprobe you can force a specific device to use a specific module (for instance, usbserial) by doing modprobe usbserial vendor=0x04d8 | 13:14 |
| dratone | is there any way to do that with build in modules? | 13:14 |
| dratone | (sorry, copy-paste error, hence the multiple lines) | 13:14 |

| ikonia | ralle: no sweat | 13:15 |
| acicula | ghufran: well google for apache ssl ubuntu 9.10, or just start at the wiki page ubottu linked | 13:15 |
| Stargaze | theadmin: not better with another encrypted file | 13:15 |
| theadmin | Stargaze: Oh wait wait, i got it | 13:15 |
| acicula | ghufran: and stay away from howtos that are older then the current LTS ;) | 13:15 |
| ghufran | acicula: im looking to install just the module.. everything else is installed | 13:15 |
| acicula | ghufran: isnt it in the default apache2 package/ | 13:16 |
| ghufran | acicula: it looks like its now :S | 13:16 |
| theadmin | Stargaze: It outputs the decrypted contents to stdout, thinking it's a text file... so try "gpg -d /path/to/encrypted/file.gpg > /path/to/decrypted/file" | 13:16 |
| Stargaze | trying :) | 13:16 |
| digitig | ActionParsnip: Thanks -- that might have done it. I could do with a tone generator application, because with music files it's not always easy to tell the problem from the beat of the music! | 13:17 |
| acicula | ghufran: think you just need to add the defined for ssl in your httpd.conf & set a cert | 13:17 |

| SealedWithAKiss | acicula, I'm not auto logging in. | 13:52 |
| acicula | SealedWithAKiss: then you are entering an account/password when you login to the desktop right | 13:52 |
| SealedWithAKiss | acicula, usually yes. Not now though, it doesn't ask for either. | 13:52 |
| acicula | hmm thats odd | 13:53 |
| acicula | but you do get errors about nautilus pertaining to your home directory? | 13:54 |
| SealedWithAKiss | acicula, three consecutive errors, then a blank desktop with no menus or icons. No login screen is displayed at any point. | 13:54 |
| acicula | can you give the errors? | 13:54 |

| etsorbme8 | where or what log file would you look at for shutdown errors or halts during shutdown and does not completely shutdown and would like to find out what is causing this? | 14:10 |
| default | Im trying to complete a script for a unix class. In solaris we use chmod +x | 14:10 |
| default | Doesnt seem to work in ubunti | 14:10 |
| default | ubuntu* | 14:11 |
| acicula | in the faq you can find a command that tells you whats started when and how and whats running now | 14:11 |
| new_lubuntu_user | i mean, nothing happens when i try to run or execute the icon, it just stay there | 14:11 |
| acicula | default: chmod works the same in ubuntu as it does on solaris | 14:11 |
| default | chmod +x alone wont let me run the script though | 14:12 |
| acicula | you click on the install ubuntu icon on the desktop? | 14:12 |
| new_lubuntu_user | yup | 14:12 |
| acicula | well you ned to call the script | 14:12 |
| acicula | new_lubuntu_user: give it a bit of time or try the alternate install? dunno really | 14:12 |
| okc2 | hi | 14:12 |
| default | I did. I remember someone telling me another way to do it in ubuntu but I forgot how | 14:12 |
| new_lubuntu_user | i tried looking for a menu, but it doesn't show it anywhere either, just the icon | 14:12 |
| llutz | default: sh script | 14:12 |
| default | oh so its sh to run it | 14:13 |
| new_lubuntu_user | how can i do the alternate install without making a mistake of installing it on a different partition/ | 14:13 |
| default | In solaris we type just the name of the file. Thanks. I'll remember sh | 14:13 |
| llutz | default: solaris has "." in PATH? linux hasnt | 14:13 |
| llutz | default: so "./script" should do | 14:14 |
| hikenboot | I have a problem dpkg is telling me to fix a dpkg error by running dpkg --configure -a unfortunately the fix is to install another package which dpkg wont allow me to do because of the error | 14:14 |
| llutz | s/linux/most linux distros/ | 14:14 |
| default | That works too thanks | 14:14 |

| new_lubuntu_user | i haven't, i have four partitions, and it ok if i have the windows removed as long as two out of the four partions i have wont be harmed | 14:22 |
| new_lubuntu_user | my pc can't havndle the weight of ubuntu, coz i just have 256 ram, and it shared with my onboard video card | 14:23 |
| hikenboot | new_lubuntu_user, you need to back up your data before installing a second operating system...if you dont want to loose it then be sure to back it up...it only makes sense! | 14:23 |
| new_lubuntu_user | ok, ill do that, but i have to fid out first how i'll be able to install this if the icon won't work | 14:23 |
| hikenboot | new_lubuntu_user, find out what the icon is pointing to and run it with gksu | 14:24 |
| new_lubuntu_user | gksu? just type it? where? | 14:24 |
| new_lubuntu_user | by pointing to, you mean, the location? | 14:25 |
| Stargaze | new_lubuntu_user: check out ubuntuclips.org pls :) | 14:25 |
| new_lubuntu_user | coz the exact file name is "ubiquity-gtkui.desktop" | 14:25 |

| hikenboot | new_lubuntu_user, open a console | 14:25 |

| new_lubuntu_user | how do i open one? sorry... im really not that familiar with the terms | 14:26 |

| acicula | drizzt_: some are compiled in afaik, has a bunch of locale options too | 14:39 |
| DasEi | ddavids:so jackd (and not jack, that's an audio ripper) and pulseaudio should do jack-sensing | 14:39 |
| drizzt_ | acicula, is there a way to find out which were compiled into kernel? | 14:40 |
| DasEi | MindSpark: why not use rsync and a progress indicator or wuch the network - throughput to determine ? | 14:40 |
| ddavids | DasEi: do i do jackd at the terminal? | 14:40 |
| acicula | drizzt_: kernel config is stored in /boot/ | 14:41 |
| MindSpark | DasEi, I don't know what rsync is, but that sounds like a pretty good method | 14:41 |
| Dr_Willis | rsync - the WONDER toll | 14:41 |
| DasEi | !info rsync | 14:41 |
| ubottu | rsync (source: rsync): fast remote file copy program (like rcp). In component main, is standard. Version 3.0.6-1ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 341 kB, installed size 704 kB | 14:41 |

| Dan_E | yes | 14:41 |
| MindSpark | the server I am uploading to doesn't have ftp/sftp or anything, just webdav | 14:41 |

| acicula | phaedra: report it on #freenode | 14:42 |
| phaedra | ok | 14:42 |
| DasEi | MindSpark: it autoresumes and with the option -P shows you a progress-bar and throughput, handle like cp | 14:42 |
| doonie | what's the most lightweight java package for ubuntu? Getting a few options when i write 'java' but not sure of any of them.. tutorials say sun, but 200mb isn't that light weight :) | 14:42 |

| MindSpark | thanks guys ! | 14:43 |
| MindSpark | and ladies :) | 14:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. does cp have a Progress bar option? Never noticed that | 14:43 |
| doonie | not that I know, rsync does though | 14:44 |
| MindSpark | Dr_Willis, does it ? what's the option for that ? | 14:44 |
| phaedra | ok, i was told to just use /ignore on it.... | 14:44 |
| ubyserver | Hello | 14:44 |

| rifter | Dr_Willis, no progress bar for cp. doonie is right about rsync | 14:47 |
| ubyserver | I started by copy & pasting into a file | 14:47 |
| ubyserver | Do I now ./configure that file | 14:47 |
| rifter | Dr_Willis, rsync is great for a lot of things | 14:47 |
| drizzt_ | ubyserver, you should autotoolize it first :) | 14:47 |

| skabasje | hey. I want to install ubuntu from my flash drive, when i use unetboot and then try to boot from the flash drive, it says some file is missing. nltdr or something.... why? | 14:47 |
| drizzt_ | ubyserver, what language your code is in? | 14:48 |
| ubyserver | I don't understand. This is where I am getting the code from. | 14:48 |
| ubyserver | http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problem_with_unauthorized_MiniPCI_network_card | 14:48 |
| rifter | ubyserver, it depends greatly on what kind of code you are talking about | 14:48 |
| ubyserver | C-code | 14:48 |
| drizzt_ | ubyserver, cc <file> should work | 14:48 |
| rifter | skabasje, the nt boot loader is still on the boot sector, that's why you're getting ntldr errors | 14:49 |
| rifter | skabasje, windows boot loader | 14:49 |
| skabasje | How do I fix this? | 14:49 |
| ubyserver | drizzt_, file not recognized | 14:49 |
| rifter | ubyserver, well unless there is a configure script there ./configre won't do anything | 14:49 |
| Giant81 | anyone know where I would start troubleshooting my audio? | 14:50 |
| rifter | skabasje, well the error is coming from the windows boot loader being on whatever drive your bios is first booting. if that is ndesirable you need to install a linux one like lilo or grub | 14:50 |
| ubyserver | rifter, It is text that I would like to compile and run. What do I do. | 14:50 |
| skabasje | But, I did it before | 14:50 |
| skabasje | It worked before, trying to do this. | 14:50 |
| skabasje | So, how do I do this if my windows installation is corrupt? | 14:51 |
| rifter | ubyserver, well you can try gcc yourfile.c -o whatyouwahttocallit | 14:51 |
| ubyserver | alright. | 14:51 |
| rifter | ubyserver, gcc is the c compiler. configure scripts make makefiles and makefiles tell make waht to do. but a simple c program should compile either form a make in that directory or with a direct gcc command. when in doubt start with gcc like what I told you | 14:52 |
| ubyserver | rifter, I don't know if I started out right but I used gedit to create the file. | 14:52 |
| ubyserver | rifter, maybe it saved as .txt | 14:52 |
| ubyserver | ? | 14:52 |
| drizzt_ | ubyserver, does it have .c extension? | 14:52 |
| rifter | ubyserver, that chould be fine | 14:52 |
| ubyserver | nope | 14:52 |
| ubyserver | I did not save with .c ext | 14:52 |
| ubyserver | rifter, alright. | 14:53 |
| drizzt_ | ok so rename it now and run cc on it | 14:53 |
| rifter | ubyserver, well technically extensions shouldn't matter but the convention is to name c programs .c and c++ programs .cpp | 14:53 |
| TheAshMan | is there a way to make rsync listen for changes to the filesystem? | 14:53 |
| rifter | ubyserver, but it will probably compile just the same as long as you pass the right filename to gcc | 14:53 |
| Dan_E | Giant81: what is wrong with your audio? | 14:53 |
| Lachance | rifter, Correct - in Linux file extensions are there for humans, not for the computer. =) | 14:53 |
| skabasje | So, no way for me to install ubuntu from flash drive if windows installation is corrupt? | 14:53 |
| ubyserver | alright I got a.out | 14:54 |
| davidgomes | anyone here can help me with the java web start ? i think there is some problems with the proxy. How can i set it ? | 14:54 |
| rifter | Lachance, yeah I knew that but I couldn't remember for sure if gcc did some weird processing based on filenames | 14:54 |
| DasEi | ddavids: which soundcard are you using ? | 14:54 |
| Giant81 | Dan_E: I have 2 audio devices, the onboard and the HDMI port. I am getting no audio from the onboard even though it was selected. I went to uninstall the onboard and re-install it but I'm not sure how to 're-install' hardware on ubuntu | 14:54 |
| Giant81 | Dan_E: so all I see now is the HDMI ... | 14:54 |
| davidgomes | how can i see it | 14:54 |
| Lachance | rifter, gcc is part of the GNU project, so no it does not. =) | 14:54 |
| davidgomes | intel .. con | 14:54 |
| ubyserver | drizzt_, result of your consult was a.out | 14:54 |
| davidgomes | the sound is working | 14:55 |
| rifter | skabasje, the windows being corrupt does not matter | 14:55 |
| drizzt_ | ubyserver, so type ./a.out <ans some paramaters maybe> | 14:55 |
| davidgomes | ops | 14:55 |
| ddavids | DasEi: i dont understand pls... | 14:55 |
| skabasje | So, if it doesn't matter, what steps should I follow to get ubuntu working on the system? | 14:55 |
| Dan_E | system>Admin>hardware | 14:55 |
| ubyserver | alright. | 14:55 |
| rifter | skabasje, what you need to do if the drive that is booting with the windows boot loader is not something you need in your boot chain right now is change the boot order in your bios | 14:55 |
| ddavids | DasEi: how do i check tht? | 14:56 |
| skabasje | I changed the boot order, the flash disk is on top | 14:56 |
| Lachance | skabasje, as long as you can boot off the flash drive and get some kind of Live environment running, no it does not. Are you overwriting Windows? | 14:56 |
| DasEi | ddavids: lspci | grep audio | 14:56 |
| ubyserver | thank you. | 14:56 |
| ubyserver | I will return :) | 14:56 |
| fuzzygold | Anyone managed to remote desktop to pc connected via mobile broadband? PC running Ubuntu 9.10 | 14:56 |
| skabasje | I get the, nltdr file is missing error. *donno if it's nltdr :P* | 14:56 |
| DasEi | ddavids: sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer | 14:57 |
| ddavids | Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02) | 14:57 |
| skabasje | yes, nltdr | 14:57 |
| rifter | skabasje, well, either the flash disk is not being booted or there is something wrong with what you've done there.. you say you installed ubuntu to the flash disk? | 14:57 |
| skabasje | No | 14:57 |
| skabasje | I used unetbootin | 14:57 |
| DasEi | ddavids: gnome-alsamixer, shall also provide a driver (upper left corner) | 14:57 |
| rifter | skabasje, you should boot to a livecd and see if you can see the partitions there | 14:57 |
| skabasje | I want to install ubuntu on the notebook, using my flash disk | 14:57 |
| rifter | skabasje, ah | 14:58 |
| skabasje | It doesnt have a cd drive. It's an eeepc | 14:58 |
| skabasje | *which is satans invention I swear* | 14:58 |
| drizzt_ | skabasje, not all flash drives can be boot from | 14:58 |
| Giant81 | Dan_E: http://pastebin.com/6VT93rm7 | 14:58 |
| ujjain | Hello. I have the feeling I am screwed and unable to reinstall grub2, because all howto's assume you do not have a seperate /boot partition. I have 2 partitions, 1 ext3=/boot and 1 LVM with swap and ext4. Can somebody please guide me to the grub2 process? I have been trying for 3 hours now. Even a basic command as root (hd0,4) fails, even though I mounted /dev/sda5. | 14:58 |
| skabasje | This one can, I've used it for ubuntu, windows 7, windows xp, It works. | 14:58 |
| leander_craig | skabsje , does the notebook suppoet usb boot? | 14:58 |
| skabasje | yes. | 14:59 |
| ddavids | DasEi: i have gotten the gnome alsamixer...wht next? | 14:59 |
| DasEi | ddavids: gnome-alsamixer (start it) | 14:59 |
| Giant81 | Dan_E: when I went to system-admin-hardware it only showed my video drivers.. it looks like it's installed right, but I don't see it in the list of audio devices | 14:59 |
| overlord | I had been using ubuntu 9.04 with "/" as mount point on a 20gb partition and the rest 60gb was a ntfs partition. I tried to upgrade to 9.10 without installing but had a lot of error. On the upgraded system I could not copy/paste on the ntfs partition as it gave me an input/output error. Now I install 9.10 from scratch. Now the 60gb media does not mount. I get the following error: http://pastebin.com/BUNydAUP | 14:59 |
| Lachance | ujjain, I think there is a GRUB channel. You might get more support there? I'll check... | 15:00 |
| DasEi | ddavids: apart from more then two channels should also see a driver in it's upper left corner | 15:00 |
| rifter | fuzzygold, what's most important there is that you can interrogate an external ip address for the machine and thatyou have control of the firewalls between you so the right ports are opened | 15:00 |
| Giant81 | DasEi: I'm following you helping ddavids, I think I'm in the same boat... I'll just lurk for a min and see if my problem goes away | 15:00 |
| Lachance | ujjain, Yeah, it's there. | 15:00 |
| ujjain | laclasse: I will check in #grub. :) | 15:01 |
| drizzt_ | does ubuntu have firewall by default? | 15:01 |
| ujjain | Lachance: thank you. | 15:01 |
| Pici | !firewall | drizzt_ | 15:01 |
| ubottu | drizzt_: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 15:01 |
| ddavids | DasEi: i dont see the driver, does it have a name? | 15:01 |
| Lachance | ujjain, Let us know how it goes! =) Good luck! | 15:01 |
| rifter | skabasje, well there's only two possibilities here. either you have a windows boot loader on that flash drive or it's being passed over for a drive that does | 15:01 |
| hikenboot | figured out how to get around a broken package that wont allow any install because sudo aptitude install -f or dpkg -a --configure fails the command is sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq <package-name> in case anyone else has the problem! | 15:01 |
| DasEi | ddavids: you should see a card model there | 15:02 |
| ddavids | DasEi: i can only see the Analog Devices AD1884 and the controls under it... | 15:02 |
| ddavids | DasEi: yes io do... | 15:02 |
| Lachance | hikenboot, Good find! =D | 15:02 |
| skabasje | So, am screwed | 15:02 |
| DasEi | ddavids: this means theres is a driver loaded then, this was my question about | 15:02 |
| dinosaurvskitten | does anyone else have problems with skype lagging every 5-6 seconds and scrambling the sound? | 15:02 |
| Lachance | skabasje, What're you on now? | 15:02 |
| dinosaurvskitten | works fine on windows, as usual | 15:02 |
| ddavids | DasEi: ok | 15:02 |
| drizzt_ | how to intall the ubuntu into separate folder on my disk? | 15:02 |
| rifter | skabasje, and unfortunately the best way to find out is to be able to boot into some environment where you can check the partitions and boot loader of that flash drive and make sure you have a bootable primary partitionon it and that the right bootloader is installed in the boot block | 15:02 |
| ddavids | DasEi: so wht do i do frm ere? | 15:03 |
| ori | remotectrl1: dou know how i install vdrift? | 15:03 |
| skabasje | I just downloaded ubuntu 9.10, *the latest*, i used unetbootin to make the flash disk bootable, and these are all the steps I took. | 15:03 |
| overlord | I had been using ubuntu 9.04 with "/" as mount point on a 20gb partition and the rest 60gb was a ntfs partition. I tried to upgrade to 9.10 without installing but had a lot of error. On the upgraded system I could not copy/paste on the ntfs partition as it gave me an input/output error. Now I installed 9.10 from scratch. Now the 60gb media does not mount. I get the following error: http://pastebin.com/BUNydAUP | 15:03 |
| skabasje | I'm on my desktop. | 15:03 |
| dinosaurvskitten | I'm not doing anything cpu intensive and skype is around 15% | 15:03 |
| rifter | skabasje, right so that's my point | 15:03 |
| ori | Can someone tell me how to install vdrift-2009-06-15-src.tar.bz2? | 15:03 |
| rifter | skabasje, you should be able to figure this out on your desktop | 15:03 |
| skabasje | I should be... But I'm not. I've tried, trust me :P | 15:04 |
| rifter | skabasje, does your desktop have a cd drive or is it an eeepc too? | 15:04 |
| Lachance | ori, tar -xf vdrift-2009-06-15-src.tar.bz2 and look for a readme file, a .deb package, etc. | 15:04 |
| skabasje | it has a cd drive | 15:04 |
| rifter | skabasje, what os is the desktop running | 15:04 |
| DasEi | ddavids: I haven't googled your chip yet, but I assume it's least a 4 channel, so there should be a fader for phone and normal output, also in the button can set differnt modi of how card is being used | 15:04 |
| skabasje | But I don't have a cd of ubuntu. Windows 7 | 15:04 |
| Giant81 | http://pastebin.com/0X4PLiUT | 15:04 |
| Lachance | overlord, You're trying to keep two, bootable parts? (Ubuntu and Windows?) | 15:04 |
| matteo1990_ | overlord, Do you have a pc with windows? | 15:04 |
| ori | lachance: thanx extracting... | 15:05 |
| rifter | skabasje, ok .. I haven't tried windows 7 but I wonder if it still has fdisk on the command line | 15:05 |
| overlord | Lachance: I only have ubuntu. I just have a partition on ntfs. | 15:05 |
| overlord | matteo1990: no | 15:05 |
| rifter | skabasje, if it does you can at least see the partitions even though you can't mount them | 15:05 |
| overlord | matteo1990_: no | 15:05 |
| skabasje | I can use the flash disk | 15:06 |
| Lachance | overlord, NTFS is the file system for Windows. Am I missing something? >_> | 15:06 |
| skabasje | I can see the files | 15:06 |
| skabasje | and it has the ubuntu icon aswel | 15:06 |
| skabasje | Is it because I quick formatted it ntfs? | 15:06 |
| overlord | Lachance: I did have windows installed previously. And there was some data on the partiton which i required. so, i did not format it. | 15:06 |
| matteo1990_ | overlord, i fixed this problem running chkdsk /f on windows as he suggest. Aniway you can fine a windows pc everywhere.. | 15:06 |
| ddavids | DasEi: thanks for ur efforts... | 15:06 |
| rifter | skabasje, yes | 15:07 |
| Lachance | overlord, I figured as much. But, you see, the problem is that NTFS is the file system for WINDOWS. As such it's proprietary and Ubuntu, to my knowledge, can't mount it. | 15:07 |
| overlord | matteo1990_: unfortunately i had windows only on my laptop which is getting serviced as of now. | 15:07 |
| skabasje | so | 15:07 |
| skabasje | it should be FAT? | 15:07 |
| rifter | skabasje, I don't think you can boot linux from an ntfs partition | 15:07 |
| skabasje | k | 15:07 |
| drizzt_ | how to intall the ubuntu into separate folder on my disk? come one, I haven't got all day | 15:07 |
| skabasje | let me try fat, brb | 15:07 |
| Lachance | !patience | drizzt_ | 15:08 |
| ubottu | drizzt_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 15:08 |
| overlord | Lachance: I had been using this partition when i was on 9.04..8.10..8.04... | 15:08 |
| === schlaftier1 is now known as schlaftier | ||
| DasEi | ddavids: did it do the job ? else there is the solution with jack-sensing, but as have used it once longer ago, I'm not the best at it, jackd was package, as said | 15:08 |
| skabasje | fat, fat(32) or xfat :S | 15:08 |
| alive1 | o hello there... | 15:08 |
| orson | Lachance: mounting ntfs isn't a problem since ages | 15:08 |
| rifter | <skabasje> well I would expect it to be a linux native type partition like ext3 etx4 .. but I haven't tried this unetbootin let me see if I can find something on it | 15:08 |
| drizzt_ | damn I would use ubuntuforums if someone would ever answer the posts here | 15:09 |
| drizzt_ | *there | 15:09 |
| skabasje | which fat? :P regulat fat? | 15:09 |
| Lachance | drizzt_, What're you trying to do? Create a seperate partition to install Ubuntu into on an HDD with an existing OS? | 15:09 |
| Lachance | orson, =O I don't use Windows, at all, so I wouldn't know too much about it. | 15:09 |
| matteo1990_ | Hi all i have , according to lsusb, an Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode). It can't see my mobile phone and my wii controller... How can i fix it? | 15:09 |

| orson | Gangrel: sudo -i | 15:10 |
| rifter | Lachance, there've been ntfs drivers in linux for a very long time, and for at least several versionsnow ubuntu has included the read/write versions | 15:10 |

| rifter | Lachance, sure | 15:11 |
| ubyserver | Thank you very much for that rifter and drizzt_ | 15:11 |
| DasEi | ddavids: no, it should give you faders to be muted or not, and also lets you configure the use of your soudchip | 15:11 |
| Yerushalmi | Hah, tzohorayim tovim, Lachance. | 15:11 |

| ujjain | Red_HamsterX: I realize that. | 15:48 |
| ujjain | It is clear. | 15:49 |
| djoef | remoteCTRL1, because I do not get access to this printer through "unsafe" ubuntu | 15:49 |
| ujjain | I used /media/b2.... what was in my Ubuntu. | 15:49 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: root dir is not what you got there its maybe / but not a /dev/someUID path afaik | 15:49 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: sure, it will work in any release as its just compiling stuff | 15:49 |
| djoef | remoteCTRL1, as in I am not allowed to use the local network | 15:49 |
| remoteCTRL1 | djoef: whatya mean by unsafe? | 15:49 |
| rmozden | ujjain, That link I gave you resolved some of the same issues I was having. | 15:49 |

| djoef | well lets say the IT service does not support it | 15:49 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist will need to e /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 15:49 |
| djoef | But I would like to stay working in ubuntu :) | 15:49 |
| remoteCTRL1 | djoef: in that case youre doomed id say | 15:50 |
| ujjain | I see, well, it really tires me out :( It did not work for me. | 15:50 |
| DasEi | giant: sudo it | 15:50 |
| djoef | anyway, they let me connect to the network through vpn, and I wanted to try by surfing to the printer this way | 15:50 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: the ndiswrapper in the repo will be fine enough, you dont really need to compile it | 15:50 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: did you try what i suggested? | 15:50 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: you can also use ndisgtk instead | 15:50 |
| giant | DasEi, thanks, it's building now, we'll see if it works | 15:50 |

| rmozden | ujjain, The link I gavce you has direction to pull your current grub.cfg from the drive and utilize it. Only thing I didnt mount was the /dev/sda2 one | 15:51 |
| DasEi | giant: say when ready done | 15:51 |
| ujjain | I have a seperate /boot partition, which does not make it easier because every Ubuntu-howto assumes you have /boot on your main partition, and I use LVM. :( Should have never done either of them I guess. | 15:51 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: good luck | 15:51 |
| rmozden | ujjain, literally took me 5 min to fix from a live cd | 15:51 |
| ujjain | I had it running before I ran fixboot fixbr in Windows Recovery Disc, because Windows did not work. I should have known better. | 15:52 |
| giant | DasEi, done | 15:52 |
| rmozden | ujjain, ouch | 15:52 |

| ujjain | remoteCTRL1: http://linuxers.org/howto/how-recover-grub2-ubuntu-910-karmi << This assums you can chroot because you have no seperate /boot partition. | 15:53 |
| jeevan | <ActionParsnip: so wat to do now | 15:53 |
| jagjr | my screen randomly locks itself | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | jeevan: hunt around for good yahoo servers | 15:53 |
| jeevan | okay | 15:53 |
| remoteCTRL1 | djoef: if your printers are browsable you can search for them in ubuntu and just use them, i seriously doubt that your it will notice that you printed from linux not windows | 15:54 |
| ActionParsnip | jeevan: add the pidgin ppa, the newer version may have the yahoo servers already in | 15:54 |
| l3ns | i am tempted to try out windows 7 :D | 15:54 |
| jagjr | everytime i type it locks | 15:54 |
| ActionParsnip | !ot | l3ns | 15:54 |
| ubottu | l3ns: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 15:54 |
| giant | DasEi, patebinit is being retarded, even with the right url it won't take it :( but it's restarted | 15:54 |
| ujjain | I am thinking of rebooting now and test, because I was able to give '/boot' a boot flag in fdisk via Administration -> Disk Utility. | 15:54 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: of course you can chroot, you even need to otherwise it wont work | 15:54 |
| jagjr | im having to enter my password 100's of times | 15:54 |
| ujjain | It did not have that before, I think a boot partition should at least have a /boot flag. | 15:54 |
| skabasje | I hate ubuntu and it's non wifi driver supporting sarcasm :( | 15:54 |
| ujjain | remoteCTRL1: How do I chkroot with LVM? | 15:54 |
| DasEi | ujjain: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide, seperated mentioned there | 15:54 |
| ujjain | I can mount /boot as /mnt. | 15:55 |
| rmozden | l3ns, Windows 7 is better then Vista but I'm still having a hard time justifying the cost of the license just to play windows based games | 15:55 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: its not ubuntu, its hardware developers | 15:55 |
| skabasje | no | 15:55 |
| skabasje | ok, yeah. | 15:55 |
| RMsA | should I wait for the next version of Ubuntu or try the CD from Linux magazine "lucid"? | 15:55 |
| jagjr | how can i disable screen lock | 15:55 |
| skabasje | but still, ubuntu should figure something out | 15:55 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: companys like nvidia and intel and hp embrace linux greatly and teir products will work excellently | 15:55 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: you might need some lvm commands there, first fint the volume group with vgscan then vgchange then lvscan then youre supposed to be able to mount | 15:55 |
| DasEi | giant: ret.. yep;; cd | 15:55 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: it'snot linuxes fault in any way | 15:56 |
| l3ns | rmozden: it's not actually about games that i'm after of. it's the media and presentation that i'm after with windows 7. it's something linux is not good at. :( | 15:56 |
| skabasje | so | 15:56 |
| skabasje | no ubuntu for me ? | 15:56 |
| jagjr | how can i diable screen lock? | 15:56 |
| DasEi | giant: dmesg > dmesg.txt && pastebinit dmesg.txt | 15:56 |
| djoef | remoteCTRL1, that is how I did it till now | 15:56 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: sure,ubuntu for allif it fits your needs | 15:56 |
| djoef | but with the new vpn this does not work anymore | 15:56 |
| jhammel | hi; i just bought a computer preinstalled with ubuntu; widescreen works with gnome but i want to use fluxbox which uses a lower res | 15:56 |
| djoef | I should be able to do this through this extranet thing | 15:56 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: if you need wifi and you need ndiswrapper, use ndisgtk and use the xp32 or xp64 driver | 15:56 |
| skabasje | It doesn't, because I can't use the internet :P | 15:57 |
| rmozden | skabasje, Talk to the hardware vendors as it is them that keeps specs closed so no one can make a open source drivers for their stuff | 15:57 |
| jhammel | i don't even have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf, so am a bit confused how that gets set | 15:57 |
| djoef | but I can't find the right way to formulate the link | 15:57 |
| natrixnatrix89 | Hi. After I installed mythtv ubuntu always asks for password when I try to shutdown. Because it thinks other users are logged in so it wont let me shut down. How can I find what user could it be and delete that user? | 15:57 |
| skabasje | uhm | 15:57 |
| skabasje | ok | 15:57 |
| rifter | sorry I had to check my solution.. I could not find any way to tell xchat not to overwrite log files (which is dumb) but at least by specifying the logfiles as %n-%c-%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M.log they should be unique each session now | 15:57 |
| jagjr | can anyone help me? | 15:57 |
| ActionParsnip | djoef: udev and hal work out stuff, you can add an xorg.conf and it will be used | 15:57 |
| ujjain | remoteCTRL1: Thanks a lot! Can you please save those 2 links for me and give then to me when I come back after reboot? I cannot save bookmarks on a live CD. | 15:57 |
| remoteCTRL1 | djoef: well you need to be able to connect to where the vpn terminates everything else is business as usual | 15:57 |
| natrixnatrix89 | jagjr: theres an applet for that | 15:57 |
| DasEi | jagjr: the screensaver ? | 15:57 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: ndisgtk will sort you out dude | 15:57 |
| rifter | jagjr, sure | 15:57 |
| natrixnatrix89 | jagjr: its called inhibit applet | 15:57 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: gimme the links once more pls | 15:58 |
| jagjr | it locks randomly | 15:58 |
| rifter | jagjr, are you talking about the automatic screen lock? | 15:58 |
| jagjr | and it's annoying | 15:58 |
| ujjain | remoteCTRL1: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide http://linuxers.org/howto/how-recover-grub2-ubuntu-910-karmic-koala | 15:58 |
| jagjr | it didnt use to be automatic | 15:58 |
| brokepunk | need help grepping data from dkpg please | 15:58 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: but why would you reboot now? | 15:58 |
| skabasje | Invalid operation ndisgtk | 15:58 |
| ujjain | remoteCTRL1: I added the boot flag via disk utility, I feel it might make a difference. | 15:58 |
| rifter | jagjr, check under System -> Preferences -> Screensaver | 15:58 |
| giant | giant@giant-laptop:~$ dmesg > dmesg.txt && pastebinit dmesg.txt | 15:58 |
| giant | http://pastebin.com | 15:58 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: install it from the livecd. i recommend you use a wired connection until you get righted | 15:58 |
| ujjain | back in 3min! | 15:59 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: nope it wont | 15:59 |
| ujjain | why not? | 15:59 |
| rmozden | So I have about 95k lines worth of CIDR block addresses to add into my firewall which is iptables. I dont want to do it that way because it will take forever to process the script. I'd like to use ipset to do this and simplify the problem but is there a way to use it without recompiling the kernel?? | 15:59 |
| ujjain | I have grub2 perfectly installed on /boot... | 15:59 |
| jagjr | ROFL! | 15:59 |
| jagjr | i know what it was | 15:59 |
| ujjain | on /dev/sda5 actually. | 15:59 |
| jagjr | i had blueproximity on | 15:59 |
| DasEi | giant: quity nasty that, sorry for that | 15:59 |
| jagjr | and my phones downstairs :/ | 15:59 |
| ujjain | if it would just boot /dev/sda5, Iḿ fine. | 15:59 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ujjain: very well:) | 15:59 |
| natrixnatrix89 | jagjr: :D | 15:59 |
| rifter | jagjr, make sure that lock screen is unchecked, or at least if you don't wantit to happen automatically then change the setting that turns on the screensaver when idle | 15:59 |
| skabasje | I searched for it in the software center, it says windows wireless driver. imma install it | 15:59 |
| rmozden | ujjain, hope it works for you | 15:59 |

| rifter | matteo1990_, the security on bluetooth devices requires that you give permission on the device for it to be seen and connected to | 16:01 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990_: try: sudo hcitool dev; sudo hcitool scan | 16:01 |
| rmozden | So no one has any idea about ipset? | 16:01 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: what was the question? | 16:01 |
| skabasje | i dont get it. it's there, but I can't install it. | 16:02 |
| DasEi | natrixnatrix89: should there be others ? | 16:02 |

| holister | I'm trying to get autofs-nfs homedirs working, and they do, except one thing: the user's directories are created as the nobody user, which makes CrossOver refuse to run... the only thing i can find is 2 posts to mailing lists of people that are having the same problem and no responses... | 16:03 |
| remoteCTRL1 | skabasje: what? | 16:03 |
| skabasje | All applications say the same | 16:03 |
| Kimo | i have a problem in my Xorg.conf | 16:03 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, I'm trying to avoid needing a kernel compile but it seems that I'm sol for that if I want to use ipset | 16:03 |
| remoteCTRL1 | skabasje: paste your error message and explain what you are trying to acchieve | 16:03 |
| Kimo | i want a original xorg.conf for nvidia 5200 | 16:03 |
| jiffe | how do I go about resizing an ext3 filesystem? I have a vmware disk with no partitioning that I have an ext3 filesystem on, I resized the disk in vmware but when I run resize2fs it doesn't see a change | 16:03 |
| brokepunk | i was trying to use the " dpkg -l | grep virtualbox | pasteinit -" I at the request of a person helping me work on a issue i am having with virtualbox...I do not have pasteinit and need to find a way to get the data he needs to a text doc | 16:03 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: sry buddy but this really exeeds my expertise... | 16:04 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: you need to add the install cd as a repo in software sources | 16:04 |
| DasEi | natrixnatrix89: users and groups > to be set there, and whoami tells which user is currently your account | 16:04 |
| PyjamaSpank | I've got 2 hard drives. How can I change the order they show up in Nautilus under places? Something to do with fstab? | 16:04 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: use gparted | 16:04 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: id really get a wired connection though, makeslife so much easier | 16:04 |
| brokepunk | chili555: i was trying to use the " dpkg -l | grep virtualbox | pasteinit -" I at the request of a person helping me work on a issue i am having with virtualbox...I do not have pasteinit and need to find a way to get the data he needs to a text doc | 16:04 |
| skabasje | I look them up in the software center, double click on em so i get the description, and it just says not available in the current data, license: open source, Price: free, Canocial provides critical updates for openoffice.org office suite *or any other app i look at* But no install button | 16:04 |
| llutz | brokepunk: dpkg -l | grep virtualbox >file.foo | 16:04 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, This is what I get for trying to block the script kiddies | 16:04 |
| skabasje | I am on a wired connection | 16:04 |
| brokepunk | llutz: thank you, I will try that | 16:04 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: pardon? | 16:05 |
| feedmecereal | Hi folks. I'm trying to get a sound driver installed as described on http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/BrokenSoundDrivers but I get an error message when I try to install the package libasound2-dev. Can anyone help me with this? | 16:05 |
| chili555 | brokepunk: dpkg -l | grep virtualbox > virtual.txt maybe?? | 16:05 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: cool. then run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade; sudo apt-get install ndisgtk | 16:05 |
| natrixnatrix89 | DasEi: do you mean I should change the group I belong to or what? | 16:05 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, the need for ipset is so that my iptables script doesnt have 200k lines in it from all the country blocks and take 2 days to finish | 16:05 |
| skabasje | yeah, and ubuntu is designed to be easy | 16:05 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, script kiddies = wanna be hackers | 16:06 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: its a lot easy, try install gentoo then tell me how easy ubuntu is | 16:06 |
| jiffe | parted doesn't see the change either | 16:06 |
| DasEi | giant: try a reboot, as I don't know the exact model and then re-do dmeg to see if upstart find a better driver now, sudo reboot | 16:06 |
| skabasje | gentoo? whats gentoo? | 16:06 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: yeah i know what those are but i never had the urge to protect myself against those with 200k lines of code...? | 16:06 |
| Stargaze | skabasje: check distrowatch.com | 16:06 |
| brokepunk | chili555: that did it... I tried the same, but added a second pipe... | 16:06 |
| brokepunk | clili555: thank you. | 16:07 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: a very tecnical version of linux which starts you from a live text based environment which you slowly build by compiling source | 16:07 |
| skabasje | yes | 16:07 |
| Giant81 | DasEi: true, we'll see what happens. It's just been annoying. I'm on a Dell 1745 laptop if that helps | 16:07 |
| skabasje | try installing windows, and see how hard ubuntu is | 16:07 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: my first gentoo install took about a week and a half to get a desktop | 16:07 |
| chili555 | brokepunk: glad its working | 16:07 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, I was blocking entire countries using CIDR addresses. When I get rid of the rest of the world except from where I have friends/family/necessary needs of communication, it comes out to over 100k lines of CIDR addresses | 16:07 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ActionParsnip: :DD with or without selinux? | 16:08 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, So by the time I translate that into drop commands for my firewall, is over 200k lines in my iptables script | 16:08 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: on my main pc it took me 2 hours to get sound and increase page file in vista, it all works immediately out of te box in linux | 16:08 |
| skabasje | not with me now does it :P | 16:08 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: why the heck would you do that? linux is save man | 16:08 |
| ActionParsnip | remoteCTRL1: just bootloader, kernel, xorg and fluxbox | 16:08 |
| skabasje | and am talking about windows 7. | 16:08 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: yeah when I run parted it won't let me resize larger than the original size | 16:09 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: exactly so what is easy for one isnt easy for another | 16:09 |
| DasEi | natrixnatrix89: check if your regular user is in the admin group | 16:09 |
| skabasje | cuz tbh, no normal person would go running around entering commands to get his os wroking anymore | 16:09 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ActionParsnip: well i knew its complicated but i wasnt aware that its freaknerdy... | 16:09 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: generally, ubuntu is asier than other linuxes | 16:09 |
| Sattvic | Does anyone know if I can burn a 900MB ISO file with a Cd-Writer on a DVD? | 16:09 |
| natrixnatrix89 | DasEi: yes. it is. | 16:09 |
| skabasje | no u cant | 16:09 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, it's safer then windows but considering I'm a info security analyst, I know *nix has it's downfalls too. Why would I want to allow unnecessary traffic a means to even attempt to get in? | 16:09 |
| adarsha | @Sattvic: does the cd hold 900 mb? | 16:09 |
| skabasje | no | 16:10 |
| ActionParsnip | remoteCTRL1: was my first one, i can throw one up in a day or so now | 16:10 |
| skabasje | he said dvd | 16:10 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: got a lvm volume there? if so you need to extend the volume group before extending the volume | 16:10 |
| Giant81 | DasEi: we're getting there. I now see the device under the sound preferences | 16:10 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: no, I just did an mkfs.ext3 on /dev/sdb directly | 16:10 |
| genii | Sattvic: CD and DVD use different kinds of lasers, so you can't use a CD writer to burn a DVD | 16:10 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: ever considered whitelisting instead of blacklisting? | 16:10 |
| adarsha | @Sattvic: Oh! u r burning to a dvd? u'll need a dvd writer na? | 16:10 |
| Sattvic | @adarsha: No, the CDs only go up to 800MB, but the DVDs go much higher - do I need a DVD burner for this? | 16:10 |
| adarsha | @Sattvic: yeah. | 16:10 |
| ActionParsnip | natrixnatrix89: if the iso is a dvd iso then yes, i recommend you use a usb stick (assuminig the destination system can boot usb) | 16:10 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ActionParsnip: youre my hero, man:) with or without selinux? :D | 16:10 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, You have my attention on that - got something I can read to do it? | 16:11 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: which is not so good you should create partitions there first, even if you plan on using the whole disk with it | 16:11 |
| ActionParsnip | remoteCTRL1: not sure, guessing not, i just got lan and boot then installed fluxbox and let it bake overnight | 16:11 |
| seicherlbob | hi there! can someone tell me, how Pulse, Phonon, Alsa and Xine work together? I got troubles with the sound setup here and would like to know, how these things work together, before i start configuring everything. | 16:11 |
| Sattvic | @adarsha: even if it is an ISO image and not a DVD? | 16:11 |
| === vincent is now known as Guest88809 | ||
| Guest88809 | I a looking for a script that downloads deb packets including their dependencies, but doesn't install the packets. | 16:12 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: ok I'll give that a shot | 16:12 |
| adarsha | @Sattvic: iso images are just image files that can hold anything (either cd or dvd ) | 16:12 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: err nothing specific now, but either you block it all and allow specific things to get through or you allow it all and block specific things which is what you are doing if i am not mistaken | 16:12 |
| === pete_ is now known as Guest76031 | ||
| skabasje | sudo apt-get upgrade; what exactly does this do? It takes a lot of time. | 16:12 |
| === Guest88809 is now known as vverheijen | ||
| remoteCTRL1 | ActionParsnip: hehe 12h of compiling? | 16:13 |
| adarsha | @Sattvic: u can burn a cd iso image to a dvd, but u need the appropriate hardware for that. Cd writers can't burn dvds | 16:13 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: good luck! | 16:13 |
| woody_ | i have a question, i just got a gateway netbook and loaded it with xubuntu. i cant find drivers for the intel bluetooth or sd card reader. anyone know of a solution? | 16:13 |
| Sattvic | @adarsha: Hmm - so can I transfer the iso file to my thumbdrive and give to my friend to burn an image for me? | 16:13 |
| ActionParsnip | remoteCTRL1: 650Mhz cpu + 256Mb ram on PATA HDD, 12h + the rest | 16:13 |
| vverheijen | I a looking for a script that downloads deb packets including their dependencies, but doesn't install the packets. | 16:13 |
| Red_HamsterX | skabasje, it updates all of the software on your system. | 16:13 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, I'd use the hosts.deny files but there is a limitation there too on the ammount of lines that can be used at once | 16:13 |
| leander_craig | woody | 16:13 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ActionParsnip: aw my gawd | 16:13 |
| gabriel | oi | 16:13 |
| ActionParsnip | vverheijen: apt-get can be told to only download | 16:13 |
| ujjain | So, that did not work :( | 16:13 |
| skabasje | that's quite a lot damn | 16:13 |
| gabriel | alqum br? | 16:13 |
| MrPockets | How oftern do you guys update Ubuntu? | 16:14 |
| ActionParsnip | remoteCTRL1: yep, was overnight then i had work so i didnt care | 16:14 |
| DasEi | natrixnatrix89: or your problem is the other way round, that myth starts a process as root in bootup, that stops the regular user from terminating it | 16:14 |
| leander_craig | onboard bluetooth or is it a dongle/ | 16:14 |
| adarsha | @Sattvic: yeah. | 16:14 |
| ActionParsnip | MrPockets: nearly every 2 or 3 hours as I am on lucid | 16:14 |
| MrPockets | do you find it breaks things? | 16:14 |
| MrPockets | the updates? | 16:14 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: look dude IF iuse iüptables i install firestarter and use that one as an ordinary standard firewall with gui n stuff, block it all and then open up for specific things, that gives me like 30 lines in the iptables config;) | 16:14 |
| woody_ | my bluetooth is onboard, as is the card reader | 16:14 |
| ActionParsnip | MrPockets: no never | 16:15 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ActionParsnip: did it just for the fun of it or are you actually working with it? | 16:15 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, This isnt for my desktop, it's for my server | 16:15 |
| Giant81 | DasEi: , I'm sure you get this quite often, but THANK YOU, a couple clicks through the preferences and I've got sound | 16:15 |
| Sattvic | @adarsha: thanks for the info | 16:15 |
| DasEi | !yay | giant | 16:15 |
| ActionParsnip | remoteCTRL1: its a headless samba/torrent/file/backup server | 16:15 |
| ubottu | giant: Glad you made it! :-) | 16:15 |
| * Dan_E is happy for Giant81 been there! | 16:16 | |
| Giant81 | DasEi: I went through the same preferences before I started messing with it, and they wouldn't work, the new drivers are probably what did it | 16:16 |
| motaka2 | how to update list of installed packages | 16:16 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: well in that case skip the gui, yet still block it all and then open up what you need to have opened... blacklisting 200k lines of ipadresses apeears quite exagerated to me | 16:16 |
| ActionParsnip | remoteCTRL1: although its making some nasty noises lately so might get a fitpc to replace | 16:16 |
| brokepunk | ActionParsnip: you are doing backups to the same place you have your torrents? | 16:16 |
| adarsha | @Sattvic: sure! :) | 16:16 |
| ActionParsnip | brokepunk: no, to a firewire hdd | 16:16 |
| brokepunk | ActionParsnip: ok... bad business, that | 16:17 |
| ActionParsnip | brokepunk: why? | 16:17 |
| * Giant81 thinks !yay does not convey his happyness. There should be a !w00t | 16:17 | |
| skabasje | uhm | 16:17 |
| Giant81 | !w00t Giant81 | 16:17 |
| DasEi | Giant81: yes, with that vid it'll be more fun in lucid for you, as the graphics are up quite far, a matter of time when sound (which is better chipset) will do, also | 16:17 |
| skabasje | the updates asks me something :P | 16:17 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ActionParsnip: i see... i really like those network storage arrays with samba... but dont ask me for specifics now i just accidentally found an articel the other day that i am for sure not ever gonna find again:D | 16:17 |
| charzero | If I want to have an xfs formatted device as /var but xfs is in a module, is it sufficient to have / (and /lib) mounted before /var (fs_passno=2 for /var) or do I have to set something else up? | 16:17 |
| ActionParsnip | brokepunk: stuff is stored locally, backup runs every night to the firewire | 16:17 |
| skabasje | what's a grub? | 16:17 |
| brokepunk | ActionParsnip: if all you have is nameless data in your backups, I guess not bad at all.. | 16:17 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: does the same thing on /dev/sdb1 | 16:17 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: its the bootloader | 16:18 |
| ActionParsnip | brokepunk: its worked for a good while | 16:18 |
| skabasje | ah, it says there is a new version or something, and that the current one has been locally modified, what do I do? | 16:18 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: seriously? you got one partition on your sdb device now, right? and youre trying to INCREASE that one? | 16:18 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: sudo apt-get --reinstall install packagename | 16:18 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, My firewall is custom since it does some rate limiting, connection tweaks and then firewall rules. When I get some botnet trying to get to samba shares/firewalled ports, it junks up my connection. Since I get them from multiple countries, the best solution to be proactive was to block all except where I do work at or have communications with. ipset would be the ideal way to set that up as I would only need 4 li | 16:18 |
| rmozden | nes in my iptables script to use that 'group' and also be able to adjust it on the fly as need be. | 16:18 |
| skabasje | install the package maintainer's version, keep the local version currently installed | 16:18 |
| rmrfslash | So why is TinyCore 10 MB and Ubuntu Mini is 133 MB | 16:19 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: if its a new install use the maintainers | 16:19 |
| skabasje | k | 16:19 |
| ActionParsnip | rmrfslash: puppy is 80mb | 16:19 |
| rmrfslash | DSL is 50 MB | 16:19 |
| charzero | How do I get it to load kernel modules before setting up other filesystems? | 16:19 |
| rmrfslash | ok so Ubuntu Mini is 133 | 16:19 |
| rmrfslash | how could it be that large | 16:20 |
| DasEi | natrixnatrix89: I found a similar issue to yours, but I'm little nervous, it suggests removing some part of pulseaudio, but I'm not in the deep of myth (too much overhead for my uses), but -own your own risk, we can try this | 16:20 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: i dont get you buddy you can just block it all, and then whitelist the ips that you are working on | 16:20 |
| ActionParsnip | rmrfslash: theres ulite too, not sure the size there | 16:20 |
| delimax | hello all. i installed karmic x64 yesterday and i'm very impressed so far at how easy it is to use. it's great! | 16:20 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: without having to block it on a per ip basis that is completely weird, dude;) | 16:21 |
| ActionParsnip | rmrfslash: depends whats in it, you will most likely find its kernel modules and drivers | 16:21 |
| ActionParsnip | delimax: glad you like it | 16:21 |
| skabasje | is there like, a short key to open the terminal? | 16:21 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, Not really. You ever worked in IT security? It's done like that all the time | 16:21 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: that is correct, created 1 partition with fdisk and mkfs'ed to ext3, expanded it from 8gb to 12gb in vmware and parted is still showing max of 8587MB even after reboot | 16:21 |
| rmrfslash | Then I guess it's a mystery how TimyCore got so tiny | 16:21 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: i use guake and use F12 to drop down/hide the terminal | 16:21 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: if you are using kde then use yakuake | 16:22 |
| ervasd | http://www.e-castig.com/index.php?r=pszR | 16:22 |
| skabasje | o.o | 16:22 |
| skabasje | yakuake? are you making up words now? :P | 16:22 |
| ActionParsnip | !info yakuake | skabasje | 16:22 |
| ubottu | skabasje: yakuake (source: yakuake): a Quake-style terminal emulator based on KDE Konsole technology. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.9.6-1ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 373 kB, installed size 1888 kB | 16:22 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: so, no I'm not making up words | 16:23 |
| skabasje | yes! now I know exactly what it does :P | 16:23 |

| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: alright, I was choosing /dev/sdb1 when running parted, when running it against /dev/sdb and choosing partition 1 I am now getting that there is an incompatible feature enabled on it | 16:23 |
| ActionParsnip | skabasje: so you can use guake instead of terminal and a hotkey will hide / show the terminal | 16:23 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: there you go! do the partitioning in gparted and then youll be fine, just delete and recreate it | 16:24 |
| skabasje | thanks! | 16:24 |
| charzero | How do I get the moduels in /etc/modules to be loaded before filesystems in /etc/fstab with an fs_passno of 2? | 16:25 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, I'll look into it | 16:25 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: that sounds destructuve | 16:25 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: destructive rather | 16:25 |
| skabasje | sudo apt-get install ndisgtk | 16:25 |
| skabasje | I did this one. Now what do I do :$? | 16:25 |
| stdisease | jiffe, try a resize2fs again on it, back up your stuff | 16:25 |
| Hebram | rmozden: The way that remoteCTRL1 explains is the way to do it. Otherwise you will be configuring firewall rules until the end of time. Deny all then allow what you need. | 16:25 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: you gotta consider one thing: dynamic ips its completely useless attempting to block script kiddies by ip if they got a new one in 8 hours;) | 16:26 |
| remoteCTRL1 | Hebram: thanks dude:) | 16:26 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, That why you block via a CIDR | 16:26 |
| jiffe | stdisease: resize2fs still says 'The filesystem is already 2096474 blocks long. Nothing to do!' | 16:26 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: sure is, same as mk3fs | 16:26 |
| ujjain | does it matter if I not unmount a partitoin? because it errors. | 16:26 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: come again? | 16:27 |
| DasEi | ujjain: more whole story ? | 16:27 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: yeah, I'm not trying to recreate it, I was hoping to be able to just resize it | 16:27 |
| abhi_nav | !details | ujjain | 16:27 |
| ubottu | ujjain: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 16:27 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe: if you mk3fsed it previously your data are gone anyways;) | 16:27 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, I've never blocked by individual ip address, always by CIDR address so I catch their entire network. ie: 128.0.0.0/8 addressing | 16:28 |
| jiffe | remoteCTRL1: I'm doing this on a test machine before I do it elsewhere | 16:28 |
| stdisease | abhi_nav, DasEi : heh whoever it is they quit, people! | 16:28 |
| abhi_nav | I see | 16:28 |
| abhi_nav | I didnt notice that | 16:28 |
| remoteCTRL1 | jiffe wise thing to do:) | 16:28 |
| abhi_nav | stdisease: :) :) :) | 16:29 |

| Snicksie | i got a question about ubuntu-one, the online storage. I got a launchpad account, have an online storage, but it looks like there's something wrong. i can't really connect or so, are there some things i'm missing?

| bitsmart | hi folks, I am wondering if fuseblk is only used to mount a drive when the user is non-root? that is my first question... | 16:31 |
| rmozden | remoteCTRL1, I never called myself a specalist, just stated my job title. An anylast isnt a specalist. As for the whitelist bit, I'm reading as we chat so no need for belittling me nor will I feed into it's behavior | 16:31 |
| Hebram | rmozden: You can do it anyway you want. The question is how much time do you want to spend in front of your keyboard building rules. You can either be reactive 24/7 and do it your way, or just allow what you *need*. The latter requires administration only once in a while. | 16:32 |
| Pici | Snicksie: Ubuntu One support is in #ubuntuone | 16:32 |
| Snicksie | okay, thanks Pici ;) | 16:32 |
| stdisease | bitsmart, fuseblk is used to mount a file a system whose support is written using the FUSE framework | 16:33 |
| remoteCTRL1 | rmozden: sorry if i offended you but you really need to understand that in your line of business!:) | 16:33 |
| remoteCTRL1 | ok nice evening everybody | 16:33 |
| rmozden | Hebram, took me 5 min to generate the rules via my parse script | 16:33 |

| jhammel | i'm trying to get full resolution (widescreen) working in fluxbox; it works in gnome, so the system is capable, and works if i run gnome-session in fluxbox and change with the gnome-display-properties app | 16:34 |
| jhammel | anyone know where i should look? | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip | jhammel: use xorg.conf dude | 16:34 |
| andreas__ | How can i record my mic and my speaker in recordmydesktop..? | 16:34 |

| jhammel | stdisease: thanks, looking into it | 16:35 |
| Hebram | rmozden: And how much extra load are you putting on your firewall processing all those extra rules? | 16:35 |
| jhammel | ActionParsnip: well, funny thing | 16:35 |
| Pelusa | in spanish please | 16:35 |
| jhammel | ActionParsnip: i can't find an xorg.conf on my system | 16:35 |
| stdisease | !es | Pelusa | 16:35 |
| ubottu | Pelusa: 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. | 16:35 |
| bitsmart | stdisease: ok, thanks. my next question is if I want my ntfs HDD mounted through fstab, can I use the syntax generated by Xwindows to mount it? in other words, it successfully mounts when I double-click it, and appears like so in mtab: /dev/sda1 /media/Media_ fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0 so can I then add that to fstab and have it work? | 16:35 |
| stdisease | bitsmart, use filesystem type 'ntfs-3g' and options 'defaults' | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip | jhammel: karmic doesn't ship with one but if one exists it will be obeyed | 16:36 |
| dogge10 | hey, is it possible to mount a usb pen drive as a non-root user with write permissions on that user under 9.10? | 16:36 |
| rmozden | Hebram, Amazingly enough, it doesnt load on the mahine much but takes forever to process. Considering I have a twin dual-core HE rackmount in my house, only saw 30% of one proc being used to process it | 16:36 |
| bitsmart | stdisease, like this? /dev/sda1 /media/Media ntfs defaults 0 0 | 16:36 |
| bitsmart | err | 16:36 |
| jhammel | ActionParsnip: ahh, good to know; it seems strange that it wouldn't be there | 16:36 |
| bitsmart | stdisease, like this? /dev/sda1 /media/Media ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 | 16:36 |
| stdisease | bitsmart, ntfs-3g not 'ntfs' | 16:36 |
| andreas__ | How can i record my mic and my speaker in recordmydesktop..? | 16:37 |

| stdisease | bitsmart, it'll be mounted and unmounted automatically just as for the other file systems on your fstab | 16:40 |

| stdisease | jcrawford, like it said, is that file ~/.htaccess readable to the apache server ? What are the permissions on that file? and what user:group is apache running as? | 16:47 |
| dimuls | teage, its called module for kernel | 16:47 |
| rifter | ok, so I am trying to figure out how to make my removable media (like usb drives) mount to consistent, sensible places. However,the old way of doing this, with hal and rules, is apparently deprecated in 9.10, and all the gui methods of changing this are gone as well | 16:47 |
| teage | dimuls: then why did i have to install it. ? i had to install the driver. | 16:47 |
| teage | dimuls: ic | 16:47 |
| stdisease | teage, driver *is* usually just a module | 16:47 |
| SilverFox | what would cause connecting to my webserver to be slow (once connected, everything is quick)? Connecting via IP is slow as well. Should I be looking at UFW or Apache? | 16:48 |
| rifter | the only post I have found that even tries to pretend to talk about 9.10 suggests using fstab, but the problem with that is anything you put there the system is going to try to mount at boot. fstab is notthe right place for removable media imho | 16:48 |
| skabasje | vim: command not found | 16:48 |
| ni1s | teage, /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/net/wireless probably | 16:48 |
| dimuls | i don't know what you did.. but there is no drivers in linux | 16:48 |
| stdisease | SilverFox, or DNS... | 16:48 |
| ni1s | dimuls, ofcourse there is | 16:48 |
| rifter | besides that, fstab requires the mountpoint to exist. whatever gnome is doingto mount things in /media does not require that | 16:48 |
| SilverFox | stdisease: connecting via IP is slow as well. | 16:48 |
| SilverFox | or maybe php... | 16:49 |
| rifter | I realize that using UUIDs is going to be part of my solution, I jsut need to figure out where to put them | 16:49 |

| stdisease | rifter, on my debian sid for example, they mount as '/media/disk' /media/disk-1 etc.. there must be a config file you could configure somewhere, anyway that doesn't matter much when you only use GUI apps, you just click on the volume's icon | 16:56 |

| papapep | there's something you're missing | 17:02 |

| Pici | jcrawford: Why is apache looking at your home directory, did you setup a vhost to look there? If so, then www-data needs to be able to read the directory, even if you don't have an .htaccess file there. | 17:05 |
| papapep | Kimo: i you talk in private nobody else gets that experience | 17:05 |
| jcrawford | Pici, no i did not set my vhost to be there, my vhost is /home/jocrawfo/workspace/ovife/ | 17:06 |

| KB1JWQ | Is there a Ubuntu equivalent for "yum provides?" | 17:06 |

| Pici | KB1JWQ: What does 'yum provides' do? | 17:06 |

| DasEi | KB1JWQ: apt-cache depends / apt-cache show | 17:08 |
| Pici | KB1JWQ: You can use apt-file to acheive that. Its a separate package though, and is not installed by default. After installing make sure that you run sudo apt-file update first. Or, if the package is already installed, you can use dpkg -S filename | 17:08 |
| rifter | stdisease, nils ok I think I may have answered my own question.. but I'm going to figure it out. Like I was saying before, the old place tyto write these rules, /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi is deprecated now | 17:08 |

| Nijverheid | Stargaze: nl, een beetje vl :) | 17:31 |
| hikenboot | if i am compiling a kernel from kernel.org that i have patched how do i get it to make the kernel headers from the source? | 17:31 |
| Lxndr | Lachance, Myrtti, Jeruvy: Are you saying I don't actually have a true version of Ubuntu? I only used wubi because I have no access to any kind of CD burner. | 17:31 |
| Stargaze | oki , ik antw :) | 17:32 |
| stdisease | hikenboot, try make headers_install | 17:32 |
| Lachance | Lxndr, no, of course not! Wubi Ubuntu is Ubuntu. =D But Wubi works as a Windows executable installer. In other words, you need Windows to run it. | 17:32 |
| Nijverheid | sixofour: o_O uhhh... then I'm sorry, I haven't a clue :/ | 17:32 |
| sixofour | stdisease: i did what you said its at a blue dos-y looking screen | 17:32 |
| Jeruvy | Lxndr: wubi installs in a virtual disk inside your windows environment. | 17:32 |
| sixofour | now what? | 17:32 |
| Nijverheid | Stargaze: heel goed :) | 17:32 |
| rmozden | Is there any way to make ipset a module for a default kernel? | 17:32 |
| hikenboot | stdisease, thanks | 17:32 |
| stdisease | hikenboot, see 'make help' for more info, too | 17:32 |
| LocutusOfBorg | Hi everyone | 17:32 |
| LocutusOfBorg | I need an admin | 17:32 |
| Lxndr | Lachance, Jeruvy, etc: I wonder if that's why I've been having WINE problems. | 17:33 |
| Stargaze | rmozden: try modprobe | 17:33 |
| nibbler | !details | LocutusOfBorg | 17:33 |
| ubottu | LocutusOfBorg: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 17:33 |
| Lachance | Lxndr, Do you have a flash drive? You can put a Live environment on your flash drive and do it that way too. | 17:33 |
| yorick | all I did was gksudo -u gdm dbus-launch gnome-appearance-properties | 17:33 |
| stdisease | sixofour, yes the blue--dos'y.. follow the instructions there and see if you get a menu next time you reboot | 17:33 |
| Lachance | Lxndr, I always have issues with Wine. >_> | 17:33 |
| LocutusOfBorg | nibbler: I think I have found a security bug on ubuntu | 17:33 |
| sixofour | i don't know what to do, it ask if the linux command is right..there is nothing there .. | 17:33 |
| Lxndr | Lachance: I'm having issues with WINE that I've never had on my laptop (which also is an ubuntu computer). | 17:33 |
| LocutusOfBorg | I need to talk with an admin before opening a bug | 17:34 |
| W_McL | Lxndr, if you don't have a CD burner and want to install Ubuntui, you can try to use an USB flash drive: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 17:34 |
| yorick | any ideas? | 17:34 |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, just... post here..... | 17:34 |
| Stargaze | Lxndr: join #winehq | 17:34 |
| Myrtti | Lxndr: wubi should be considered as a demo version, a bit like game demos, it isn't for full blown use because the way it installs on your system has its own set of caveats | 17:34 |
| Lachance | LocutusOfBorg, you'd do a lot better to provide as many details on a single line so we can all do our best to help. | 17:34 |
| Oasa | how to extract a lzma file? | 17:34 |
| stdisease | sixofour, I've no idea. either your setup is somehow messed up or I'm failing to get the situation | 17:34 |
| sixofour | let me reboot now | 17:34 |
| stdisease | Oasa, is it a .tar.lzma ? | 17:34 |
| Lxndr | Also: I have no flash drive(s). | 17:34 |
| Oasa | yes sdtdisease | 17:35 |
| Oasa | .tar.lzma | 17:35 |
| stdisease | Oasa, try just 'tar xf <file.tar.lzma' first | 17:35 |
| Lxndr | do the ubuntu people still send out free CDs? | 17:35 |
| Lachance | Lxndr, =O Well you could order a CD. You only need one. | 17:35 |
| erUSUL | Lxndr: not to individuals afaik | 17:35 |
| Oasa | tar: This does not look like a tar archive | 17:35 |
| Oasa | tar: Skipping to next header | 17:35 |
| Oasa | tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors | 17:35 |
| llutz | Oasa: tar --lzma -xf foo.tar.lzma | 17:35 |
| erUSUL | Lxndr: to loco teams or if you are ging to do a install party and thngs like that | 17:36 |
| yorick | hmm let my try logging in again | 17:36 |
| andrea_ | ciao | 17:36 |
| Lachance | Lxndr, the price is right tho - it's only like 5 bucks USD. | 17:36 |
| spark_ | hellow ever one :) , I am glad to see the new compatibility on ubuntu , but i got a little problem , my sound card and cg stop the drivers unexpectly when they are pushed too hard , and at start I have to set on compiz cause I lose any window borders .. is there a way to make it automatickly start ? | 17:36 |
| LocutusOfBorg | ok, could you try to do this: reboot your system, try to login with the kernel recovery mode and chose the root shell: you will gain root privileges without prompting for a password | 17:36 |
| andrea_ | ho un problema | 17:36 |
| Lachance | Just enough to cover the cost of the cd | 17:36 |
| Oasa | llutz : unrecognized format | 17:36 |
| maroy | does anyone have tips to make mkinitramfs-kpkg not fail, after each call to apt-get install? | 17:36 |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, thats ok | 17:36 |
| Oasa | llutz : --lzma | 17:36 |
| Myrtti | !it | andrea_ | 17:36 |
| ubottu | andrea_: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 17:36 |
| Oasa | llutz : what to do ? Unrecognized format --lzma | 17:36 |
| Oasa | !lzma | 17:36 |
| * Guest_62633 lol @ hellow ever one | 17:37 | |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, physical access to a machine always open possibilities for root-access - only partial pervention is encrypted disk. its like this in any os | 17:37 |
| stdisease | Oasa, 'lzcat <file> | tar xf -' | 17:37 |
| LocutusOfBorg | nibbler: it's ok? somebody could have root access on my machine? | 17:37 |
| llutz | Oasa: "tar --version" >=1.20? | 17:37 |
| pkhtut | Hi, Can I ask about python Tkinter although I know this is Ubuntu irc? | 17:37 |
| Oasa | stdisease: Shoud i type the whole thing in ' ' ? | 17:37 |
| LocutusOfBorg | no nibbler if you try the windows recovery system it will ask you for the password | 17:37 |
| Oasa | llutz : I am using Hardy Heron. How do i check version ? | 17:38 |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, how would you prevent him from taking out your harddrive and plug it to his laptop and manipulate it? | 17:38 |
| llutz | Oasa: "tar --version" | 17:38 |
| stdisease | Oasa, right, also check tar version like llutz said and whether lzma/xz-utils is installed on your system | 17:38 |
| Oasa | its 1.19 | 17:38 |
| llutz | Oasa: --lzma needs >=1.20 | 17:38 |
| Lachance | LocutusOfBorg, what kind of environment do you work in in which this is an issue? | 17:38 |
| Oasa | llutz : how do i update ? | 17:38 |
| llutz | Oasa: try [18:37:22] <stdisease> Oasa, 'lzcat <file> | tar xf -' | 17:38 |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, but you can prevent this, by protecting your grub conf from edits and remove the recovery. but still: physical access=full control | 17:39 |
| Losha | LocutusOfBorg: this is widely regarded as a feature... | 17:39 |
| LocutusOfBorg | nibbler: of course the chroot way is always possible, but on a laptop is still not simple | 17:39 |
| Oasa | something is coming | 17:39 |
| Oasa | its not stopping | 17:39 |
| wasutton3 | does anyone know of a working usb fm transmitter for karmic? | 17:39 |
| Oasa | i typed lzcat filename ... n its outputting something... very fastly. | 17:39 |
| stdisease | Oasa, it should take some time to extract, you can also use 'xvf' instead of just 'xf' to see some sort of progress | 17:39 |
| LocutusOfBorg | for example i can ask a laptop friend and change the user password in less than a minute | 17:40 |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, always simple. no matter if laptop or what.... | 17:40 |
| tarelerulz | anyone notice Flash player on Ubuntu 9.10 running the cpu up to around 70% and higher. I did have it up to 100 on one of my cpu | 17:40 |
| Oasa | i did not write tar -xf .. | 17:40 |
| stdisease | Oasa, no not just lzcat part, the whole thing between ' ' | 17:40 |
| Oasa | okkay stdisease | 17:40 |
| Oasa | Just curious what is lzcat ? | 17:40 |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, read about grub configuration how to protect it, if you care. but use harddisk encryption if you are serious about security | 17:40 |
| LocutusOfBorg | Losha: how can I ask for this feature? | 17:40 |
| maroy | so no mkinitrd-kpkg experts here :( | 17:40 |
| stdisease | Oasa, decompressed whatever is compressed with lzma and sends it either to terminal or to the next program in the pipe this case 'tar -xf -' | 17:41 |
| LocutusOfBorg | nibbler: of course, I can, but by default the ubuntu way is less secure than the windows way | 17:41 |
| === papapep is now known as papapep-afk | ||
| stdisease | Oasa, the garbage you saw is what the uncompressed .tar file looks like | 17:41 |
| Oasa | hmm i understood | 17:41 |
| Oasa | okay.. stdisease.. that works.. thanks.. btw how do i update tar ? | 17:42 |
| Kilmarac | ok, need help with a problem ive never encountered before. Ubuntu boots into a graphical environment, but I olnly have a single unmovable terminal window in the upper left. I can run programs from the command line, but everyone is layed into the upper left corner and is not movable or resizable. | 17:42 |
| W_McL | tarelerulz, unfortunately flash is a CPU eating monster :( | 17:42 |
| stdisease | Oasa, depends either use an update CD or using apt-get or aptitude or whatever package manager you usually use | 17:42 |
| nibbler | LocutusOfBorg, well, if you rely on noone opening your pc for your security concerns, then yes. | 17:42 |
| |604| | ok stdisease now x won't boot | 17:42 |
| Losha | LocutusOfBorg: there used to be a site where you could submit suggestions http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/ Dunno if it's still active.... | 17:42 |
| Oasa | please explain further stdisease. | 17:42 |
| |604| | stdisease i am sixofour onmy other pc | 17:43 |

| ranveer | ok | 17:44 |
| |604| | stdisease everything on my laptop is nvidia | 17:44 |
| Kilmarac | any ideas for my boot up problem? | 17:45 |
| stdisease | Kilmarac, right, you will need to select which session type you want from gdm/kdm menu | 17:45 |
| stdisease | Kilmarac, right now it seems to be of type 'xterm', select gnome or kde or whatever you have installed | 17:46 |
| minus007 | I downloaded the source for libpng and when I run make... it says | 17:47 |

| |604| | stdisease did you see what i wrfote? | 17:48 |
| |604| | wrote | 17:48 |
| |604| | Kilmarac linux has a way of altering itself even when its turned off | 17:49 |
| stdisease | minus007, huh why is it even looking under /usr/local in the first place, install package zlib1g-dev and retry configure and compile | 17:49 |
| Kilmarac | |604| ROFL! | 17:50 |
| |604| | i just booted into rt kernal, and now KDE/X is currupted..lol | 17:50 |
| stdisease | Kilmarac, |604| lol. heh, well what flavor of ubuntu do you have installed? Did you use to have kdm before? | 17:50 |
| === orion_ is now known as Guest43685 | ||
| |604| | stdisease i have kubuntu karmic | 17:50 |
| OerHeks | is ubuntu's F1 key safe to use ? | 17:51 |
| Kilmarac | actually ubuntu default should be gdm, but it looks like gdm is saying failed to acquire org.gnome.displaymanager: connection :1.39 is not allowed to over the service due to security policies in the confiruation file. | 17:51 |
| Kilmarac | tried in sudo and it failed to acquire and bailed | 17:51 |
| LocutusOfBorg | Sorry just back | 17:51 |
| stdisease | |604|, oh sorry that was meant for Kilmarac. For nvidia install linux-rt kernel headers and reinstall nvidia drivers and try again.. | 17:51 |
| Jacquerie | Hey there! A quick question. Do you find it worthy to be an Ubuntu torrent seeder? Or is it just a waste of mine and everybody else bandwidth? | 17:52 |
| |604| | stdisease also, i cannot switch to the grub screen anymore, it goes right to kde | 17:52 |
| Ricoshady | I have a bunch of windows shares, and those servers went down today, but when they came back up, the shares weren't remounted by samaba, how can I make sure if shares go down, they come back up when the share is availible again? | 17:52 |

| Kilmarac | marcel us the command with sudo | 17:53 |
| OerHeks | Stargaze, just worried about the F1 virus | 17:53 |
| mtx_init | why does nano open when I do visudo? | 17:53 |
| Stargaze | F1 virus??? | 17:53 |
| Kilmarac | oh wait, you did.. sorry. LOL missed it | 17:53 |
| livy | Just got ubuntu. Love it. Do I need an antivirus? | 17:53 |
| VCoolio | mtx_init: because nano is set to be your $EDITOR ? | 17:53 |
| |604| | stdisease i did ctrl alt f1, now i am in terminal, how do i do what you just told me to do? | 17:53 |
| Stargaze | Kilmarac: try apt-get install gdm | 17:53 |

| skabasje | good question, does ubuntu need a virus scanner | 17:54 |
| OerHeks | owww sorry :S | 17:54 |
| goldins | hi, I've set up the UFW to do nat masquerading ( I have *nat, :POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0], and -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/16 -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE) in before.rules, but it doesn't seem to be working, and further the *nat line doesn't appear in iptables -L | 17:54 |
| Jacquerie | Oerheks: It's just that I barely passed 2:1 ratio and this seems sucky to me. | 17:54 |
| livy | No im not locotus | 17:54 |
| goldins | how do I get it to forward? | 17:54 |
| Kilmarac | stdisease "already newest version | 17:54 |
| livy | total newbie to linux here | 17:54 |
| Pici | !antivirus | livy skabasje | 17:54 |
| ubottu | livy skabasje: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 17:54 |
| NewWorld | livy: No antivirus needed. | 17:54 |
| |604| | livy linux rarly has viruses for it, maybe if your machien is a server and your hosting files..but other than that...idk | 17:54 |
| mtx_init | VCoolio: its blank | 17:54 |
| VCoolio | skabasje: not unless you want to prevent to pass on viruses by forwarding mail from windows to windows for example | 17:54 |
| marcel_ | Kilmarac, i had used sudo | 17:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | !antivirus | 17:55 |
| mtx_init | VCoolio: doesnt visudo imply vi, it does evrywhere else | 17:55 |
| livy | wow. so need for antivirus? | 17:55 |
| livy | cool | 17:55 |
| Stargaze | livy: linux can transfer virusses, but not be infected | 17:55 |
| Kilmarac | marcel_ ya, i noticed that after you typed it | 17:55 |
| |604| | nope livy | 17:55 |
| NewWorld | mtx_init: What is theh output of 'echo $EDITOR'? | 17:55 |
| stdisease | |604|, umm installing headers and nvidia? umm you really shouldn't be messing with non-standard kernels if you don't know how to do that | 17:55 |
| mtx_init | NewWorld: Blank | 17:55 |
| livy | awesome. | 17:55 |

| ubottu | LocutusOfBorg, please see my private message | 17:55 |
| marcel_ | Kilmarac, what is wrong now? | 17:55 |
| |604| | stdisease well switching to rt was [as this channel told me ] sudo apt-get install linux-rt ,reboot, everything works | 17:55 |
| VCoolio | mtx_init: it does imply that, and maybe nano is by default EDITOR in ubuntu, not sure; you can set it in .bashrc or /etc/profile | 17:55 |
| |604| | everything didn't work | 17:55 |
| stdisease | mtx_init, then override EDITOR and/or VISUAL environment variables with whatever editor you want, log off and back then see if that still happens | 17:55 |
| |604| | no one ever said anything about nvidia and ehaders... | 17:56 |
| Pici | VCoolio: Indeed, it is the default $EDITOR. | 17:56 |
| Kilmarac | marcel_ did you use sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop first/ | 17:56 |
| Kilmarac | ? | 17:56 |
| mtx_init | OK THANKS GUYS | 17:56 |
| marcel_ | no | 17:56 |
| livy | the only thing i need to do now is figure out how to run Office 2007, I hear that it's possible | 17:56 |
| Kilmarac | you have to stop the network before you can use macchanger | 17:56 |
| stdisease | |604|, you did not ask :p | 17:56 |
| |604| | sudo apt-get install wine | 17:56 |
| |604| | stdisease i did last ngith | 17:56 |

| |604| | livy yes | 17:58 |
| stdisease | |604|, easy is different things for different ppl but I'd say not | 17:58 |
| Stargaze | Ose: /usr/bin | 17:58 |

| |604| | it says it cannot write to /tmp; and crashes | 18:00 |
| stdisease | |604|, probably because you booting into RT kernel messed up your gfx driver. or... hmm | 18:00 |
| |604| | that is the problem in the first place | 18:00 |

| |604| | does xorg.conf contain my user settings? [like, for example,wall paper, icon placement etc]? | 18:04 |

| soreau | jussio1: gksu, gksudo, kdesu, sudo and running as root are all the same thing. Do not do it under any circumstance for any user application. This includes all of compiz components, emerald, ccsm, fusion-icon. | 18:24 |
| soreau | justinas: ^^ | 18:25 |
| cyberbluntz | eh? | 18:25 |
| justinas | why, soreau ? | 18:25 |
| soreau | justinas: Also, this is an indication that you have compiz running as root which is also not good. You could have possibly damaged your permissions in your users home folder now | 18:25 |
| soreau | justinas: Because it can screw up your permissions and cause all kinds of strange problems | 18:26 |
| ubyserver | Hello Everyone | 18:26 |
| justinas | how can i solve this problem? | 18:26 |
| schlaftier | I thought gksudo et al. instead of plain sudo would prevent screwing up your permissions | 18:26 |
| vegarn | gksudo is just graphical sudo | 18:27 |
| Kimo | Unable to load X Server Display Configuration page:Failed to query NoScanout for screen 0. | 18:27 |
| stdisease | schlaftier, not that I know of, they're just fancy interfaces for root access | 18:27 |
| Stargaze | justinas: by rebooting your pc and using sudo for maintenance only | 18:27 |
| soreau | justinas: First, assuming you are running as your normal user, go into sys>prefs>appearance>visual effects and set to None then back to whatever it was. this should restart compiz as user | 18:27 |
| schlaftier | vegarn, stdisease: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo | 18:28 |
| soreau | justinas: Then, open ccsm as user with sys>prefs>compiz config settings manager | 18:28 |

| Stargaze | Kangarooo: appnr.com | 18:34 |
| brjann | Kangarooo: in karmic, the Ubuntu Software Center found in the Applications menu can do that | 18:34 |

| Trinity33 | hi everyone i have question about gnome terminal how to keep it open after executing script? from desktop launcher. when i type in terminal name of this application then it open when i make launcher with path to this app then terminal open and it closes after 0.5sec i could put in the script at the end read or sleep and it will stay open after exec. but matter is that when i use launcher and the termin opens then | 18:41 |
| Trinity33 | want to put new commands in it and thats not possible so i would like to know if there is some way to keep it open after executing script from launcher>? ubuntu 9.10 | 18:41 |
| Quickard | k, so reboot machine, boot off cd and use ubuntu to check for error's. if I find an error on the cd should I try and burn another copy? | 18:42 |
| llutz | Trinity33: use xterm or other term, since gnome-terminal afaik has no "-hold" option, to keep it opened | 18:43 |
| Kangarooo | Quickard: no put live cd start computer. live cd will show options like try live cd and install and third option is check cd for errors | 18:43 |
| Quickard | I dont have live cd | 18:44 |

| Trinity33 | <trism> what u mean by --init-file? use in launcher. "gnome-terminal --init-patch to the application"? | 18:53 |
| bitsmart | stdisease, ps aux | grep mpd returns "drew 3858 0.0 0.0 3040 808 pts/0 S+ 13:52 0:00 grep --color=auto mpd", which means that my command is the only found instance of mpd, right? | 18:53 |
| stdisease | bitsmart, which means it isn't running anymore, mpd | 18:54 |
| trism | Trinity33: you can use the terminal to execute bash --init-file=/path/to/script; --init-file uses a bash script instead of ~/.bashrc as the initial script, so it executes it and then starts bash. You may want to source ~/.bashrc at the start of the script | 18:55 |

| DasEi | ? | 19:39 |
| Kimo | How i can resolve this prob | 19:39 |
| mario-prkos | Stargaze: just FYI and thanx for your help: I connected to my comp from laptop and used remote x export display to get gnome-control-center and deinstalled the driver, after that I rebooted and I got gui! I'm not reinstalling the driver and hope it will pick up all the new monitor settings :) | 19:39 |

| wunjo | I have seen that happen many times | 19:40 |
| grandrew | DasEi, I guess not.. gfx memory shows 124 MB. How can I figure out if there is a ramdisk? | 19:40 |
| FrEaKmAn_ | acicula, anyway... thanks | 19:40 |
| Red_HamsterX | SealedWithAKiss, you could try manually installing it from Intrepid (http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/hotsmtp), but that may not be a good idea. It may have been abandoned for a reason other than "too much work to maintain for the amount of use it's expected to provide" | 19:40 |
| RazorC | oh ok | 19:40 |
| trism | SealedWithAKiss: you apparenlty don't need it for evolution anymore http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2009/03/04/setting-up-evolution-mail-gmail-and-hotmail | 19:40 |

| grandrew | DasEi, the most intersting part is that dmesg says: [ 0.000000] Memory: 2665604k/2813312k available. So it seems that kernel does really find it but does not make it available for userspace | 19:45 |

| qwertyjustin | hey, if im downloading a new install via apt-get, and it just starts hanging. how might i stop the download, and restart, without getting locked out to retry the second time | 20:38 |
| ddrj | woah | 20:38 |
| iceroot | ddrj: but there was nothing, only the system + openssh-server | 20:38 |
| tesuki | I don't need the latest kernel/glibc/libwhatever.so I just want later "userspace" programs like VLC, firefox and such. | 20:38 |
| etsorbme8 | where / what / how would find what log file to look at for a problem when shutting down the computer halts and does not power off but use to several days ago. | 20:38 |
| ddrj | yeah this one will only have 2 daemon's running in the bg and samba and a few other things but nothing else | 20:38 |
| ddrj | but it's got plenty of ram, 1 gig worth | 20:38 |

| MilitantPotato | qwertyjustin: ctrl+C | 20:40 |
| Gump | Hello, anyone here that can answer a fast question? | 20:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | edakiri, MilitantPotato, you only need to add "v"s so you can use "aptitude -vv moo", "aptitiude -vvv moo" etc | 20:40 |
| ActionParsnip | knxville: compare the output of: md5sum ./filename with the correct md5sum for the file, if they do not match the file is corrupted | 20:40 |

| ZykoticK9 | NCS_One, Handbrake is my fav, you in the repos there is dvd::rip which is also good (FYI handbrake doesn't do AVI files) | 20:41 |
| tesuki | danx, blakkheim : I will upgrade to a newer ubuntu as long it's labeld LTS. | 20:41 |
| ActionParsnip | knxville: weird their is no md5 sum given so you can check the file | 20:41 |

| ubyserver | has anyone here installed eBox on their local box? | 20:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | knxville, uname -m | 20:47 |

| MilitantPotato | ddrj: I have 1 gig, rarely use it all | 20:52 |

| perscitus | ddrj, but i got 4gb on 32bit os | 20:52 |
| SealedWithAKiss | ActionParsnip, it's doing that now. So these FGLRX drivers should be good for my ATI card on my 64-bit Karmic installation? Compiz should be good yeah? | 20:52 |

| SealedWithAKiss | ActionParsnip, ATI control application? What's that? | 21:07 |
| guntbert | jjlee: which is more readable - *one line * doesn't restrict the amount of text (only irc cuts of at 512 bytes) | 21:07 |
| ActionParsnip | SealedWithAKiss: i know it has one, i dont use ati cards so am not sure, let me see what jeeves knows | 21:07 |
| knxville | ActionParsnip, What is it called? GTK? | 21:08 |
| poseidon | seanbrystone, yes. But when I'm programming or using latex it is really really inconvenient. I want to try and fix it. | 21:08 |
| seanbrystone | i hear ya | 21:08 |

| melodie_ | ActionParsnip, all I'll have to backup is the system : a new machine is arriving, it's a netbook for my son's birthday. | 21:09 |
| guntbert | jjlee: no problem - but the easier your questions are to read the more answers you might get :) | 21:09 |
| knxville | ActionParsnip, A gnome desktop, I remember I drag and dropped something with i was in "appearance" | 21:09 |
| kraehe | is it possible to write an iso image on a dvd+rw ? I dont have any extra long cd's only 650mb and 700mb cds currently - and the ubuntu image is just a bit to big for them | 21:09 |
| ActionParsnip | melodie_: i just always remind users to backup, ive seen too many people try resizing then moan when their data is destroyed and they have zero backup | 21:09 |
| FrEaKmAn_ | ActionParsnip, thanks | 21:10 |
| MilitantPotato | kraehe: yea, you can do that. Or use a flashdrive thats atleast 1gig | 21:10 |
| devdz | some one can tell me how to know who sends queries to my network card or which commands i can use ? | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | knxville: right click desktop -> change background, click the left most tab and click install. You can install any eyecandy file from there including icon themes | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | FrEaKmAn_: make sure your video card is setup well, or fullscreen vids will struggle | 21:11 |
| poseidon | seanbrystone, what kind of keyboard do you have? | 21:11 |
| kraehe | using cdrecord (same as burning a cd) throws an error http://pastebin.com/fF8crjhj | 21:11 |
| SealedWithAKiss | ActionParsnip, I ran that command and nothing happened. | 21:11 |

| melodie_ | ActionParsnip, Ubuntu doesn't worry me, but Seven yes : how much does it need to keep ? | 21:14 |
| guntbert | jjlee: are there any routers between the server and the client? | 21:14 |
| ActionParsnip | SealedWithAKiss: as I said, i dont use ati. Hunt around to see what app needs running, you may want to formulate an xorg.conf file to get a decent display. | 21:14 |
| SealedWithAKiss | ActionParsnip, I'm giving the drivers from ATI a shot. Anything I need to know so that I don't brick my system? | 21:14 |
| jjlee | no, just a cable | 21:14 |
| LateralForce | does ubuntu send any signal to precesses before suspending? | 21:14 |

| SealedWithAKiss | ActionParsnip, thanks anyway. You've done your best. | 21:15 |
| guntbert | jjlee: just *one* cable? no switch? is it a cross over cable? | 21:15 |
| ActionParsnip | SealedWithAKiss: if it doesnt give an xserver, boot to recovery root console and remove the packages containing frgrx | 21:15 |
| darolu | kraehe: those errors shouldn't affect the disc I think, does your LiveCD works? | 21:15 |
| MilitantPotato | SealedWithAKiss: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, and choose Vesa | 21:15 |

| knxville | darolu, where is icons located? | 21:17 |
| FrEaKmAn_ | ActionParsnip, yeah... fullscreen is really struggling | 21:17 |
| darolu | kraehe: try burning at slow rate; try adding -s 1 to burn at 1x, is the safest way to burn | 21:17 |
| FrEaKmAn_ | ActionParsnip, but only if I move mouse... :D | 21:17 |
| jjlee | guntbert: hmm, no, a patch cable. Somebody in the know told me that these days it's no longer necessary to use crossover cable, and indeed last time I tried that worked. But ethernet is based on pixie dust as far as I'm concerned ;-) | 21:17 |
| guntbert | kraehe: are you talking about the lucid image? | 21:17 |
| jjlee | I'll see if I have a crossover... | 21:17 |
| darolu | knxville: at ~/.icons/ and /usr/share/icons | 21:17 |

Somehow it cannot access the theme he used before anymore. Unfortunatelly he cant tell me what he did to cause this. He tried to compile some audio mixing software or something. But I dont know if thats related.. I'd really appreciate your ideas.. thanks | 21:17 |

| darolu | vatzec: yeah, it is not usual at all; I'm not sure trackpads are recognized as mice but you don't loose anything by trying | 21:34 |
| Trek | serverduck: and also, do you realize that because your system is partitioned, that explains why you have the space you have? | 21:34 |
| Stargaze | Bllasae: now insert the ubuntu cd, reboot from cd and install ubuntu | 21:34 |

| Trek | serverduck: a screenshot would be nice so I can see the partitions graphicaly | 21:37 |
| link_36p | ActionParsnip: I will try that, thank you. | 21:38 |
| serverduck | Trek, Should I post it on the forum> | 21:38 |
| Trek | serverduck: put it on an image hosting site, send me the link | 21:38 |
| Draggin | Good evening. I wonder if there's a simple answer to my problem - how do I install different software packages for different users in a multi-user Ubuntu environment (one machine)? | 21:38 |
| dabaR | rolo: ya, that is the thing I have ran into before, permissions or something to that extent. Usually ~/.dmrc, but I could be wrong. | 21:38 |
| serverduck | Trek, OK, just a minute. By the way, thanks so much. | 21:38 |
| Trek | serverduck, no problem | 21:38 |

| trollboy | Getting this error trying to remove mysql http://pastebin.com/L7cqexhX | 21:40 |
| Trek | serverduck: i'm going to download the screenshot, mark it up a bit, then put it on image hosting a bit, perhaps that can explain your issue for you a little bit better | 21:40 |
| MilitantPotato | The-Kernel: install gdmap, it ends up in accessories, that might help you clear space easier | 21:40 |
| Draggin | Even if someone just has a link to an explanation of how to do different packages for different users on the same machine, that would be great... | 21:41 |
| SwedeMike | Draggin: please elaborate on WHY you would want this. | 21:41 |
| MilitantPotato | Draggin: install two copies of ubuntu if you want different systems. Use menu editor if you want to show only certain programs in the application menu | 21:42 |
| Draggin | SwedeMike - just to simplify things (or perhaps complicate them, I'm not sure...). One user would not need access to things such as MySQL etc. whereas the other user would not need access to anything such as GIMP, InkScape, etc. Am I just being silly for wanting to do this? | 21:43 |
| MilitantPotato | Draggin: install/run menu editor | 21:43 |
| SwedeMike | Draggin: limiting access is one thing, you can't really have different packages for different users. | 21:43 |
| Draggin | MilitantPotato - I got that much, but that's just hiding the existing packages... | 21:43 |
| |pez| | So, I've tried to follow all kinds of guides to get DVD playback to work... Ubuntu 9.10. | 21:44 |
| Draggin | SwedeMike - okay then. How can I go about limiting access? | 21:44 |

| sneakymonkey | everytime i start firefox it crashes | 21:50 |
| sneakymonkey | even when i load up Galeon | 21:50 |
| sneakymonkey | anyone have similar issues. | 21:50 |
| darolu | vatzec: look manually for it, "sudo lshw" the list might be long though | 21:50 |
| vatzec | same thing happens O_O | 21:51 |
| vatzec | alright, got the list | 21:51 |
| vatzec | nevermind :) | 21:51 |
| darolu | vatzec: look for USB, HID, Input device, etc... according to yoru dmesg it should be there | 21:51 |
| vatzec | OK :) | 21:52 |

| tony_ubuntu | I just loaded Ubuntu 9.1 on my Dell laptop and it finished the install and rebooted to a flashing cursor in the upper left hand screen. Any ideas? | 21:52 |
| arand | sneakymonkey: you could launch it from the terminal and get the errors there | 21:53 |
| darolu | tony_ubuntu: what happens if you press CTRL+ALT+F1? | 21:54 |
| sneakymonkey | arand yea i tried that - (firefox:3205): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times | 21:54 |
| sneakymonkey | Segmentation faul | 21:54 |
| tony_ubuntu | daralo t oot up? | 21:54 |
| darolu | tony_ubuntu: ctrl+alt+f1 should lead you to a virtual console, if you get there you're reaching init 3 and would mean you only have to fix the GUI, if nothing happens you might need to reinstall | 21:55 |
| tony_ubuntu | darolu nothing | 21:56 |

| Trinity33 | i want to ask something use karmic and when i boot my pc i dont do anything just open sys monitor and look at applications so in the beginning there is ram used in about 200mb then it grow to 500 and 1gb even if i dotn do anything i was wathcing applications and even those one which sleep use ram and cpu they take more and more ram | 22:04 |
| Trinity33 | is there anything i could do to sort it out? | 22:04 |
| Trinity33 | i dotn want to just kill those applications | 22:04 |
| sneakymonkey | i did upgrade it to the new version! 3.5 i think. | 22:04 |
| darolu | sneakymonkey: yeah it is a great browser, it just made the transition from gecko to webkit, so some stuff are a bit buggy still, but very good nonetheless | 22:04 |

| mhaedo | seanbrystone: i've given it about 1.5GB of which it's only using 30%. so | 22:05 |
| mixon | hello, I've recently upgraded ubunto 9.1 to 9.10 and now my laptop (hp dv5) will no longer charge | 22:05 |
| mhaedo | seanbrystone: I've also allowed it to use 4 of my 8 processing cores. | 22:05 |
| mhaedo | seanbrystone: I'm not doing anything in it. I just boot into Win7, have nothing running, and the mouse lags | 22:06 |
| seanbrystone | mhaedo, ah maybe thats why, sometimes when i allocate too many processors to vmware or vbox it doesnt like it | 22:06 |
| Trinity33 | i want to ask something use karmic and when i boot my pc i dont do anything just open sys monitor and look at applications so in the beginning there is ram used in about 200mb then it grow to 500 and 1gb even if i dotn do anything i was wathcing applications and even those one which sleep use ram and cpu they take more and more ram | 22:06 |

| mhaedo | seanbrystone: thanks for the tip | 22:06 |

| mido_ | how to use safe-rm ,,, where to find the deleted files? | 22:08 |
| mhaedo | mguy: i'll give that a shot. i first ran 1 and it was quite slow | 22:08 |
| unixp | do you know a tool to look after which pc is on which webside via router? | 22:08 |
| mguy | Virtual box is actually 'slow'....does your cpu have VT extensions? I would guess any 4-core cpu that has HT (which is how you're getting '8' cores) would | 22:08 |
| seanbrystone | mhaedo, also, sometimes enableing or disabling the vbox or vmware Acceleration buggers things up | 22:09 |
| mido_ | how to use safe-rm ,,, where to find the deleted files? | 22:09 |
| mguy | mhaedo: You're creating artificial 'wait' on the cpus by over-assiging them. Don't forget that you really only have 4 cores | 22:09 |
| mhaedo | mguy: true | 22:09 |
| seanbrystone | vt-x/amd-v settings might need adjusting mhaedo | 22:09 |
| mhaedo | i believe they're enabled, as I assumed they should be on an i7 | 22:10 |
| mhaedo | i supposed i'll try disabling them? | 22:10 |
| seanbrystone | wouldnt hurt? | 22:10 |
| Trinity33 | <darolu> what for thats the same monitor right? the same like gnome one will show me the same usage | 22:10 |
| darolu | vaztec: It's very weird, I think I've never seen a 'generic mouse' failing like this; specially when it is recognized in your dmesg list | 22:10 |
| mguy | mhaedo: You certainly want them enabled | 22:10 |
| mhaedo | mguy: that's what I would think... | 22:11 |
| vatzec | darolu: :( I hope I can return it then... | 22:11 |
| MilitantPotato | SealedWithAKiss: I use fusion icon to switch between compiz and other WM's | 22:11 |
| seanbrystone | one would think, but also that could be whats buggering it up | 22:11 |
| mhaedo | I'm surprised it doesn't run smoothly considering I'm runin an i7 820qm with 1333mhz DDR3 | 22:11 |
| Maletor | Where does firefox save files to when I hit "Open with Transmission"????? | 22:11 |
| darolu | Trinity33: top will show you resources usage sorted, it puts the most resources consuming app on top | 22:11 |

| Maletor | mguy - not there | 22:12 |
| Trek | hero1900, don't use it if theres files in there you need | 22:12 |
| mhaedo | i guess virtual machines are always inherently slow, but not _this_ slow | 22:12 |

| mattgyver | VCoolio, the past few days ive been screwing around with && for a different reason and never thought about that | 22:23 |
| goviel | nawk: when you put in your dvd it will apear on the desktop, right click and select "copy disc", then on the window select image file | 22:23 |
| darolu | vatzec: I have no idea, the mouse just doesn't work, if other mice works with your netbook then it is the mouse, go change it :p | 22:23 |
| vatzec | darolu: Should I put this? http://pastebin.com/twAeB8yQ | 22:23 |
| superuser | Is nvidia-glx-173 the right driver for an nVidia GeForce FX5200 ? | 22:24 |
| VCoolio | superuser: yes | 22:24 |
| vatzec | darolu: I know, it's more of a curiosity matter now than a "I want my mouse" matter. :) | 22:24 |

| olife | whats the command to get a channel list for irssi? | 23:17 |
| === drew is now known as Guest45866 | ||
| === olife is now known as oLife | ||
| erUSUL | olife: /list but i would not do that in freenode. use alis | 23:17 |
| oLife | alis | 23:18 |
| oLife | okay | 23:18 |
| Typos_King | devdz: yes, is usually lameness on the part of the ops, they set the channel usually on +R mode, meaning, only registered nicks can send or join the channel | 23:18 |
| erUSUL | oLife: /msg alis list *string* | 23:18 |
| oLife | erUSUL: string? | 23:18 |
| micka | Typos_King need some help, i just know that i'm using ext3 | 23:18 |
| erUSUL | oLife: something to search for | 23:19 |
| micka | but i'm sure that my ubuntu is broken | 23:19 |
| Typos_King | devdz: +R is usually only registered nicks can join, I think the other is +m which is only registered can send, iirc... may not be +m but is a channel mode | 23:19 |
| micka | so i just want to make my backup | 23:19 |
| red | +m means only voiced people can talk | 23:19 |
| red | and ops | 23:19 |
| oLife | erUSUL: what should have happened? | 23:19 |
| erUSUL | devdz: as already pointed out probably you need to register your nick | 23:20 |
| Typos_King | davidz: yeah.... ok... .so is another mode then.. but is usually a criterion made by the ops in the channel | 23:20 |
| link_36p | Hey I'm trying to add a shared printer using samba under ubuntu 9.10. I used to get this error in my logs "hp[2420]: io/hpmud/pp.c 627: unable to read device-id ret=-1", someone here told me to install the latest version of hplip, which I did, the error doesn | 23:20 |
| micka | Typos_King => is there a way to install ubuntu with only the package ? | 23:20 |
| erUSUL | oLife: a private msg from alis should have give you a list of channels machng string | 23:20 |
| === domi is now known as Guest62531 | ||
| link_36p | doesnt show up anymore, but my printer still won't show. | 23:20 |
| Typos_King | micka: to install ubuntu with only what package? | 23:20 |
| erUSUL | oLife: for example ubuntu channels. /msg alis list *ubuntu* | 23:20 |
| micka | packages for a new version of ubuntu | 23:21 |
| micka | by example the last one | 23:21 |
| micka | 10.10 i think | 23:21 |
| Typos_King | micka: the error usually means there's something off int he hd, either bad sectors or ... some issues with the filesystem, like crosslinked files... the likelyhood is, that is bad sectors | 23:21 |
| serverduck | If I use firewall configuration for ufw and click deny and then close it, do I need to do something else to be protected from instrusions? | 23:21 |
| Typos_King | micka: bad sectors aren't an OS-dependent issue, is a physical flaw in the hd | 23:22 |
| domi007 | hello | 23:22 |
| micka | yes i think too, but the fsck seems that it can't repair it (_( | 23:22 |
| oLife | erUSUL: so I'm new to the whole irssi. Where does the msg come through? | 23:22 |

| devdz | Typos_king erUSUL : got wat u mean guys thanks :) | 23:22 |
| erUSUL | oLife: a new window. to switch windows in irssi do "alt + number" | 23:22 |

| Elrox | oLife, there are numbers along the bottom bar of the "screen" ? | 23:23 |
| micka | Typho_king because i already try twice fsck / but i've the same problem | 23:23 |
| Elrox | ok | 23:23 |
| VCoolio | oLife: irssi is great, but you may want to check weechat too (which is in my humble opinion even greater) | 23:23 |
| Typos_King | devdz: mind you that my view is that is quite lame, and most excuses to justify it are just flaky and biased | 23:23 |

| canyoucatchme | HI all, I am new here. I am just wondering, whenever I try to join the #ubuntu via freenode IRC, it keeps taking me to #ubuntu-proxy-users. Why? | 23:33 |
| Typos_King | devdz: any channel..... for ... not sure what you need... a tutoring channel? I don't think is going to provide a hell lot any book will on the subject, we can here, cover other stuff, not sure this channel is for tutoriing on basics | 23:33 |
| superuser | seanbrystone: It's simple: either you want speed: choose x64 or you want stability and packages: choose 32 bits | 23:34 |
| seanbrystone | anyone have issue of windows or any other OS in VBox get really slow if you copied the .vdi to some other HDD/folder? | 23:34 |
| seanbrystone | superuser, hah? | 23:34 |
| KindOne | canyoucatchme: its because your most likly behind a proxy | 23:34 |
| canyoucatchme | oh, I see, Thank you KindOne! | 23:34 |
| Typos_King | canyoucatchme: it will dump you on the 'proxy' channel, for a few seconds only, wait and it'll flag you to retry | 23:35 |
| MatBoy | I wonder if faxing is possible with the free driver of linuxant | 23:35 |
| canyoucatchme | coolz everyone! | 23:35 |
| superuser | seanbrystone: x64 is newer, hence it's a less tested architecture, hence more bug prone | 23:35 |
| seanbrystone | um i never asked bout 64 bit | 23:36 |
| seanbrystone | it was someone else | 23:36 |
| roszak | Anyone out there with some graphics card expertise? I have been trying all day to get my dell monitor to hook up to the vga slot on my hp dv7 running karmic with the ATI proprietary drivers. The catalyst control center recognizes the monitor when I plug it in, but nothing I do makes it flash an image on the screen. Any ideas? | 23:36 |
| mtx_init | amd64 is a simple extension of x86. The instruction sets make be newer, but the architecture fundamentals have been around for 20 years. | 23:37 |
| j-a-k-e | I am a windows 7 user looking to dual boot ubuntu, can anyone tell me what sort of support there is for asus sonar dx sound cards? | 23:37 |
| GeekSquid | roszak: are you running ccc as gksudo? might help | 23:37 |
| superuser | seanbrystone: Hum, you're right. Guess my eyes betrayed me :p | 23:37 |
| roszak | GeekSquid: i am running it as gksudo. | 23:37 |
| Elrox | devdz, you might find a less busy channel that you can ask about more basic issues | 23:38 |
| j-a-k-e | *correct model name is asus xonar dx | 23:38 |
| superuser | roszak: Try using xrandr | 23:38 |
| melodie_ | gd | 23:38 |
| melodie_ | gn | 23:38 |
| superuser | mtx_init: Sure, but there's less people testing these extensions | 23:38 |
| Nitsuga | j-a-k-e, the support is poor, and it doesn't work right in 64 bit versions. | 23:39 |
| devdz | Typos_king : thanks :) surely im starting with books just wanted to be in a mailing list of a good channel to learn from questions and problems of others :) | 23:39 |
| canyoucatchme | Hi Elrox, I am just wondering what are some of the simpler channels you can suggest | 23:39 |
| michael__ | As soon as I enable Extra desktop effects, the effects begin working, then when I choose to keep the settings the effects stop working. Why is this? | 23:39 |
| j-a-k-e | Nitsuga: hmm there isn | 23:39 |
| Nitsuga | j-a-k-e, maybe you can have some problems setting up a 5.1 sound system | 23:39 |
| roszak | superuser: how do I do that. I ran xrandr earlier and it gave me output for my devices and nothing more. | 23:40 |
| Typos_King | devdz: there are 'podcasts' or rss feeds you can sig up to, usually any RSS/feeds Agrregator you install, will come with a few ubuntu ones in it, but you can sign up for more, just google | 23:40 |
| j-a-k-e | Nitsuga: I have a 2.1 channel sound system with a seperate sub, so need to be able to access flexibass/bassredirection options | 23:40 |
| superuser | roszak: check the manpage, I don't remember very well | 23:41 |
| Elrox | canyoucatchme, i didnt say "simpler", just less busy where the mems have more opportunity to get into greater detail | 23:41 |
| superuser | roszak: Though, check if the output tells you about multiple screens | 23:41 |
| Nitsuga | j-a-k-e, in 32 bits works perfectly, but (nobody knows why in google) some 64-bit systems fail to output sound | 23:41 |
| roszak | superuser: it does give me something about two creens - i suppose internal and external. Does this output make more sense to you? http://pastebin.com/hD1uX1Ks | 23:42 |
| Hellhound666 | seems this file recovery software just recovers avi files in sections huh | 23:42 |

| nkasahara | and nautilus-share | 23:43 |
| nkasahara | but i can't get it to access from another comp! help! | 23:43 |
| superuser | roszak: From what I understand, your Dell monitor is CRT1 | 23:44 |
| nkasahara | punkrockguy3, your ability to do that may at least in part depend on the sound card you have installed. do you know if your soundcard supports line-in audio devices (and not JUST microphones) | 23:44 |
| roszak | superuser: i think that's right. | 23:44 |
| superuser | roszak: Try using the monitor setup utility in the administration menu | 23:44 |
| nkasahara | can someone help me get a samba share working? | 23:44 |
| punkrockguy3 | nkasahara, yeah absolutely. SB audigy 2; drivers are loaded and working totally fine. I know something needs to be set up with pulseaudio but I have no idea | 23:44 |
| superuser | nkasahara: Why not check Samba's website? THey have a pretty good wiki | 23:45 |
| nkasahara | punkrockguy3, aight man that's about the extent of my knowledge. as far as i got into that was transferring voice recordings from my lecture recorder with Sound Recorder | 23:45 |
| link_36p | I can't get samba to add a network shared printer thats on an XP box. I was getting the error "hp[2420]: io/hpmud/pp.c 627: unable to read device-id ret=-1", in my logs, but after installing hplip 3.10 it doesnt show up anymore, but still no printer. :( | 23:45 |
| punkrockguy3 | nkasahara, alright thanks for your repsonse | 23:46 |
| superuser | roszak: I don't know the name of the ubuntu-desktop program, but it would be the equivalent of kcontrol (kubuntu-desktop) I believe | 23:46 |
