[00:00] Have u ever tried putting Arch Linux on it [00:00] ? [00:00] Loki: gimp? [00:00] yep [00:00] greezmunkey: yes [00:00] nope not yet [00:01] adril: oh ok [00:01] j3rg: i did come across this http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wii_Tutorial - once [00:01] Loki: First off, I'm no expert. Mainly I had some web work to do, and had no choice but to sit through it, bang my head on it, and so on. I spend a little time with it every few days or so, trying new things. [00:03] anyone? [00:03] !anyone | Gran_Ger [00:03] Gran_Ger: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [00:03] Gran_Ger, nautilus? [00:03] Has anyone else had problems booting 10.4 beta1 on VirtualBox? [00:03] greezmunkey: ok I see, well then I will just have to try, trial and error^ [00:04] yes kaolbrec [00:04] Gran_Ger, gah. That's odd. Can you set the association to nautilus? [00:04] bcj for karmic help go to #ubuntu+1 [00:04] When I try to run os-prober I get an error ls; cannot access /var/lib/os-prober/mount/boot [00:04] \join #ubuntu+1 [00:04] Gran_Ger, and it still doesn't work. [00:04] doin it wrong bcj [00:04] Yes I know === losher is now known as Losha === anzenketh|brb is now known as anzenketh [00:05] the first thing is that I don't know how to associate it [00:05] Loki, figure out how to set up an image first, size, colors, etc. Then go from there! All it takes is time. [00:05] what is the file type Gran_Ger? [00:05] I can't get 9.10 livecd to boot... it gets to the "try it without changing your computer" menu, then when I hit enter, i just get a black screen with a blinking cursor... any ideas? [00:05] so i downloaded a font from the internet. then i made a directory ~/fonts_life and did 'sudo ln -s /... ' i know what i did wrong, thanks for making me type it [00:05] When I try to run os-prober I get an error ls; cannot access /var/lib/os-prober/mount/boot [00:05] does anyone know a command-line way to print out "karmic" if i'm running ubuntu 9.10? [00:05] Is the option Home Folder into Places [00:05] from the gnome-panel [00:05] shazbotmcnasty, it's a folder :S [00:05] oh [00:05] i tried pidgin, empathy and kopete and i still can't connect to yahoo can anyone help ??? [00:05] i've seen this problem before [00:05] or "jaunty" for 9.04 [00:06] in other words, a way to print the current release codename on the system where it's running [00:06] Resistol: If it dont boot id throw it away myself I had nothing but trouble with 9.10. Running 9.04 on desktop and 10.04 beta1 on netbook here. [00:06] So no one knows what's cashing my issue [00:06] LinuxGuy2009, it's not working with 9.04 cd either :-( [00:06] Mark___, did you sudo? [00:07] wget http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz && tar xzf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz && cp libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins [00:07] thats it [00:07] what i look for [00:07] Yes [00:07] greezmunkey: thanks for the help [00:07] well, How can then associate the nautilus to the folder at the gnome-panel [00:07] MFen: cat /etc/lsb-release [00:07] can i burn a dvd to watch in my tv whit brasero? [00:07] any good nautilus replacements? [00:08] mcphail: yeah, but i have to | grep | cut which kinda sucks [00:08] My computer just froze mid partition shrink... the mouse still moves, but the clock says it's still 6 minutes ago... the HD activity light is flickering, shoudl I leave it alone for a few hours? Or should I shut it off? [00:08] Gran_Ger, right click a folder and put a check mark in "open folder" [00:08] * mcphail shrugs [00:08] Principitto: if its in dvd format,id imagine so [00:09] what is the dvd format? [00:09] MFen: if you can't be bothered to type it, create a bash alias to do it [00:09] Principitto: what format is it in... and can you dvd player play avis? [00:09] mcphail: that's not the point, i have to document it as a one-liner other people can run [00:10] shazbotmcnasty, where? [00:10] I open nautilus [00:10] yes [00:10] right click a folder [00:10] go to properties or whatever [00:10] i have a movie on MPEG-4 [00:10] Principitto: vob files [00:11] O damn [00:11] i have to change it first [00:11] MFen: using grep and cut still equates to a one liner. If you are looking for a single command, there isn't one AFAIK [00:11] Principitto: what kind of dvd player? Some will play mpeg4 [00:11] oh well [00:11] thanks [00:11] i have a sony dvd player [00:11] i dont know wich model [00:12] Principitto: u can try it [00:12] i will try it [00:12] Principitto: worst case u lose a cd [00:12] Anyone in here have Ubuntu running on a toshiba a135? [00:14] Resistol, what exactly is your issue with it? [00:14] yeah [00:14] hahaha === simon_ is now known as Guest73099 [00:14] ill burn it ill se what happens [00:15] Resistol: I would guess either a bad burn, or an incompatibility with your hardware. Try again with the 8.04 live cd instead? [00:15] shazbotmcnasty, Thanks! [00:15] it worked? [00:15] Cool :) [00:15] Trek, right now I've got a really messed up Vista installed on the a135, and I'm trying to put Ubuntu on instead - but I couldn't get the livecd to boot - when I select "try without making changes' i just get a black screen with a blinking cursor [00:15] yes, I select the option Open with application [00:15] Also, in Vista I tried doing a partition shrink, and it froze... so I don't know whether to leave it alone for a bit and pray, or reboot and pray [00:15] Now, How could happend this? [00:16] Resistol, you have to give the darn thing some time to load, the blinky cursor screen is normal for a little while. ANd also, in Vista, you cant shrink the active partition :P [00:16] I mean, that the folder wasn't associated. [00:16] Resistol, the CD will let you mess with the partitions as you install it, so just give it time to load up the livecd [00:16] i gave it like 20 min [00:16] no hd / cd activity [00:17] what is some good video software for linux? i have an mp3 i want to upload somewhere but it needs to be a video format [00:17] Resistol, perhaps you have a bad/incomplete CD? [00:17] i'll try makin another [00:17] Resistol: use a different image file (redownload) [00:18] how can a mp3 be a video without video? [00:18] Resistol: try 8.04 if you haven't already. It's very stable... [00:18] mkquist: you make a static image play the whole time [00:18] hah holy shit the laptop just finished the partition shrink, and the clock updated [00:18] I'll try burning 10.04 beta and give that a shot [00:19] you guys think if I install instead of "try without installing" it'll boot? [00:19] hi [00:19] Resistol: if this is your first time with Ubuntu, you do *NOT* want to run a beta... [00:19] nautilus doesnt show the burn button [00:19] what can i do [00:20] sixofour: avidemux? [00:20] i'll try it === simon__ is now known as wooboy77 [00:21] inti: use brasero [00:21] Resistol: might try another version [00:21] inti: I find brasero very buggy. Consider using k3b instead... [00:21] hello [00:22] i need kinda help [00:22] ya brasero is buggy but i was hoping not to get those programs cuz i dont have much space [00:22] !ask | caspix [00:22] caspix: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:22] does anyone here uses psi messenger? [00:22] inti: i second the k3b [00:22] inti: then consider burning from the command line? [00:22] ya [00:24] what kind of problems have people been having with 10.04 [00:24] Resistol : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. [00:24] the thing is, i saw on internet that psi can be used for few im's (msn, icq, jabber, irc, gtalk) but when i installed it, it seems it's only for jabber...now i dont understand that...i'd like to use it for all..anyone knows how to add those accounts? (ps. sorry for my bad english) [00:25] anyone [00:25] ? [00:26] How can I make ubuntu automatically turn of my screen, not just dim it? [00:26] caspix, perhaps you should check if they have a support forum/channel? [00:26] caspix: From what I can see on their website, they only support connecting to jabber. [00:26] caspix: try pidgin, empathy or kopete for multiple accounts IM [00:27] pidgin is not working how it should on msn to me [00:27] Pidgin is the best IMHO but ymmv [00:28] caspix, I use pidgin for everything, minus Facebook, and it works without a flaw. I strongly recommend you try it [00:28] caspix: I've never used PSI, but the google says it's a jabber client, no mention of any other protocols...

The code is at http://pastie.org/879129 and is fairly simple, but the output is not what I believe it should be, and is not the output given in the tutorial.

I want to back up my music and movies to it before I make some changes to the server. I'm not sure how to do that via ssh. [00:36] can anyone try grab ikiwiki 3.14 and telling me if they're able to build anything with the package.. [00:36] s/grab/grabbing [00:37] Neezer: you will need to mount the drive first [00:38] mcphail, how do I do that? [00:38] Neezer: mount [00:38] Neezer: how is the drive formatted (FAT/NTFS/ext3 etc?) [00:38] i've got this line in a script run by cron: "ssh -q -N -R *:17564:localhost:22 remoteuser@mydomain.com &>> /home/user/log &" (with correct usernames, etc). the process seems to die immediately, and nothing goes to the log. does anyone know what's going on? [00:39] mcphail, I don't know...I just picked it up from best buy to do this.... [00:39] Trek, I don't know the [00:40] Neezer: that's fine. It should work ok. Plug the drive in, wait for a minute and then check "dmesg" to see what device letter has been allocated [00:40] Neezer: if it is a blank drive then you won't have any partitions to mount.. you'll need to use gparted to format the drive first. [00:40] bastid_raZor: I have never bought a drive which wasn't already formatted [00:41] mcphail: weird.. every drive i've ever bought has been void of a format. [00:41] mcphail, I ran dmesg, and i ended up with a bunch of outputs....I have no idea what I'm looking for. [00:41] tried avidmux and lives, are there any other video programs i can try that are not garbage? [00:42] Neezer: there will be something near the end of the list mentioning "/dev/sd??" [00:42] Have you tried OpenShot? [00:42] openshot? no [00:42] My video editor of choice [00:42] It's got a ppa [00:42] mcphail, I am pretty sure it was sdc. [00:43] i'm just trying to put a picture with an mp3 and make it an avi so i can upload to fb [00:43] That should do it. [00:43] it should take 5-6 clicks at most lol [00:43] Neezer: check again to be sure. The lines before it should comment that a usb device has been inserted and is being scanned. [00:43] It was a 1TB drive, and at the end it had about 10 or 15 lines with stuff about sd 8:0:0:0: [sdc] [00:44] openshot isn't in apt-get where do i get it? i don't know how to compile stuff [00:44] mcphail, that is correct. SCSI emulation for USB mass storage device [00:44] mcphail, then registered new interface driver usb-storage. [00:44] Neezer: type "ls /dev/sdc*" [00:45] mcphail, I get /dev/sdc and /dev/sdc1 [00:45] when i have my headphones pluged into my laptop the sound still comes out of my speakers, any direction on how to fix this? [00:45] Neezer: are you forwarding X11 i.e. can you run gparted? [00:45] Neezer: /dev/sdc1 is the partition you should try mounting [00:45] Losha, I believe I could [00:45] Trek, I should just do mount /dev/sdc1? [00:45] Neezer: good. It has a partition set up on it and will probably have been formatted [00:46] Neezer: gparted is a great program for formatting. If you can't run gparted, you can format via the cli... [00:46] where will it mount the partition? [00:46] Neezer: you need to pick a directory to mount it to [00:46] preposteruss, the act of plugging in the headset should shut the speakers down. Sounds screwey to me. [00:46] Neezer: you could try it that, it will mount it wherever you tell it to. unfortunately, my usefulness comes to an end, I use gparted to mount/unmount stuff :P [00:46] if I mount it to my home folder, then will I have access to it as a user and not have to change permissions? [00:47] Neezer: no [00:47] if i go into the sound preferences on the output tab and change the connector dropdown to headphones it mutes the speakers [00:47] Neezer: if it is a shop-formatted 1TB drive it will have been formatted as NTFS [00:47] and the headphones work, but for some reason it's not doing it automatically when they're plugged in [00:47] it works in other operating systems, even the netbook remixes [00:48] hi [00:48] hola [00:48] Neezer: I suggest you format it as ext3 using gparted. Then you'll be able to mount it, ok? [00:48] mcphail, so if I do mount /dev/sdc1/home/nathan/storage it will make a storage folder in /home/nathan where the space will be/ [00:49] Neezer: you need to make the directory first [00:49] Neezer: and watch your spaces: sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /home/nathan/storage [00:49] Neezer: but you will probably run into permission issues at some point because NTFS is not a native linux filesystem [00:50] hello, I just installed and had to reshuffle my IDE devices to boot -- now I am stuck at grub rescue>> and when I try some commands, I get stuck with "error: unknown filesystem" [00:50] what is the command for gparted? [00:51] I tried gparted, and it said command not found. [00:51] you have a gui right Neezer? [00:51] not on the server. [00:51] Neezer: if you don't you cant use gparted [00:51] i'm in ssh. [00:51] Neezer: install it first: sudo apt-get install gparted [00:51] but i have x11 port forwarding [00:52] Neezer: do you have data on the drive already? [00:52] &jo'n el've === Sir_Konrad is now known as RobartParr [00:54] mcpahil, I don't have anything on it...it is brand new. I am in gparted. You mentioned ext3, is ext4 better? [00:54] Neezer: i don't trust ext4 yet [00:54] mcphail, enough said. ext3 it is. [00:54] Neezer: will your drive be used only for linux? [00:55] Neezer: ext3 is best for your purposes... [00:55] mcphail: Why do you not trust ext4? [00:55] I would not use anything else under Linux on a >4 TB file system. [00:55] I have over 24TB under ext4 [00:56] What file system would you use for that? [00:56] BluntObject: i'm probably just a bit paranoid and conservative, especially after reading the intrepid release notes [00:56] Evening all [00:56] mcphial, my drive is going to be used to do daily syncs with my server as a second backup for it in case something goes wrong....it already has raid1 running, so I should be able to replace the array if I lose 1 drive. I am going to make some changes to the server tonight or tomorrow, and I wanted a separate backup as well. [00:56] Have you ever created a 24TB file system using ext3? [00:57] BluntObject: no. Neezer is creating a 1TB filesystem. We can debate the relative merits of other filesystems on ot [00:57] Perhaps you have rsync'd files off an ext3 or XFS file system when the source has hundreds of directories with thousands of file in each? [00:57] I might reconsider the choice for such a large system, but for casual use, I stand by ext3 as the filesystem of choice... [00:57] I just installed ubuntu 9.10 [00:57] on a semiold computer with X1950 Pro card. Detects everything [00:57] automaticly and gives me 20000 frames pr 5 secs. Both 2d and 3d [00:58] works beautifully! thanks :) [00:58] I have found ext4 faster and lots more reliable than ext3 for everything [00:58] I got a small problem with my HD4850 card though, Im sure this is the 1Gb model, but driver detects 512Mb's only. Is there a fix for that? (windows vista driver also detects 512 only) [00:59] rall: You may have bad memoory on the card [00:59] whats the best laptop to buy with 250 bucks? [00:59] Indeed - especially if Vista also detects as 512MB [00:59] Hey I have to run ubuntu off a live CD and I often have to use my laptop in places without internet like on the train... In order to watch videos, listen to music and read stuff off my USB stick, I need to update the software sources and packages using an internet connection. Is there any way to get these updates as files that I can put on my USB stick so I can update my ubuntu offline? [00:59] gooddard, depends on your needs I guess :) gaming and graphics? [00:59] school [00:59] You can usually find older Dell's on ebay with %100 ubuntu compability for that price [01:00] ganjaman420: why not just update when you have internet [01:00] i've got this line in a script run by cron: "ssh -q -N -R *:17564:localhost:22 remoteuser@mydomain.com &>> /home/user/log &" (with correct usernames, etc). the process seems to die immediately, and nothing goes to the log. the script works when run manually. does anyone know what's going on? [01:00] I do, but then when I reboot I'm back to square one... [01:00] goddard: the dell mini 10v netbook comes with ubuntu with that price [01:00] ganjaman420: oh i see [01:00] So if I turn my laptop off, get on the train, and turn it back on, there's no mp3 support or anything like that... [01:00] Has anyone here found the secret of getting 10.04 to run under VirtualBox with full graphics support? [01:01] ganjaman420: why not just install? [01:01] Hard drive lock and bios lock :\ [01:01] goddard: i have an Acer Aspire 5515 that works with no issues from 9.04 on.. also in your price range. [01:01] BluntObject: i tried installing desktop, it was suggested i install using the alternative [01:02] ganjaman420: seems like more trouble than its worth... you can buy a linux netbook for under $250 and do as you wish with it [01:02] BluntObject: installing right now, so far so good [01:02] i just booted a live cd and want to follow directions -- how do I access this without a mouse?

[01:02] ganjaman420: well you could, but it usually takes longer to download updates than to install them, so why not just update while connected to the net, and not worry about trying to do it via usb? [01:03] ganadist: Broke is never pretty [01:03] lol [01:03] ganjaman420: weed is expensive :) [01:03] Losha: hes running livecd on the train [01:03] access this without a mouse? [01:03] Neezer: just run the mount command, yes [01:03] oops [01:03] teio ?? [01:03] what can i use to convert .flv into mp3? [01:03] Neezer: and have a look at rsnapshot for your backups. It is a fantastic program [01:03] BluntObject, do you know if there is a easy way of testing videoram on card? [01:04] IMO updating a livecd is asinine === sean is now known as Guest76199 [01:04] Can anyone recommend software to help me keep focused on my goals? [01:04] guys whats the best noob friendly CLI youtube-downloader [01:04] zenlunatic: he's gonna boot the livecd and update it every time he boots? That's sort of non-optimal... [01:04] lol, not necessarily always the train :P that was an example xD [01:04] maus3701: ffmpeg [01:04] only takes about 2 mins to update everythin to my needs [01:04] rall: Suggest you check the manufacturer's web site [01:04] ganjaman420: no one does that so good luck figuring it out [01:04] ? [01:04] mcphail, thanks I'll check it out. I've also heard good things about rsync [01:04] rosco_y: i enjoy taskcoach... a little broken, but the best i've found [01:04] bastid_ra what is it? [01:05] and also whats the command to clean the system ? unused packages ect [01:05] Neezer: rsnapshot is a wrapper for rsync. Keeps everything simple [01:05] how can i disable mouse in gnome-terminal? i want to select text / etc instead of the program running getting the signal [01:05] ganjaman420: it probably can be done, but dont expect lots of hits [01:05] underdev: Thank you very much--I'm going to give it a try right now! [01:05] what can i use to convert .flv into mp3? [01:05] mcphail, what is a wrapper? [01:05] ok ill do that, thanks BluntObject, and god night to everybody [01:05] goddard: look it up on acers site. it is a 15" laptop. [01:05] Neezer: a program which calls rsync with useful default options [01:05] rosco_y: it allows you to build trees of subtasks, very helpful to me [01:06] bastid_ra Oh I dont know what you said [01:06] bastid_ra what laptop was it? [01:06] goddard: acer aspire 5515 [01:06] mcphail, cool. I am reading about it right now. thanks a bunch. [01:06] Neezer: no shortage of backup solutions, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem [01:07] and whats the problem if the flash plugin crashes very often? [01:08] masu3701: I convert them to avi's using handbrake. Not sure about mp3s though... [01:08] underdev: It sounds like something I can use, thank you! [01:08] Matisse: flash was made to crash! [01:09] how long does it take to format a 1TB USB drive? === anil is now known as Guest42878 [01:09] what? you have a 1TD usb drive? [01:09] Neezer, not long if you use an ubuntu liveCD. [01:09] TB [01:09] bastid_ra how much you want? [01:09] Neezer: not too long [01:10] hey all... I have a music share on a second HDD, I'm trying to get ubuntu to create a symlink from the default music folder to my music share... i.e. ln -s /path/to/musicshare /home/user/Music only creates a symlink inside Music, where I want to turn Music into the symlink [01:10] smokealot, i aint sure if that makes sense... :) [01:10] Neezer: it can take a while depending on the drive speed. 20 minutes or so... [01:10] so if I do an include for a file with php and html to display contents, so I need to start the file with php tags in the very top? [01:10] Losha, thanks...it is a pretty slow computer too. 1.7 GHZ P IV. [01:10] hello [01:10] OLD [01:10] hello [01:11] Neezer: using gparted? [01:11] Losha, yes === sixtila is now known as Guest96603 [01:11] anyone used ttv? [01:11] Im trying to install ubuntu on a macbook [01:11] but the sound is not working at all [01:11] Neezer: I can't remember if gparted gives you a progress bar or not... [01:11] It just has a bar that oscillates back at forth. [01:12] and a 0 of 1 operations complete. [01:12] n/m figured it out... rm Music, then create the sym link to Music :) [01:12] Neezer: it'll get there. it is a big drive [01:12] Neezer: it will complain if something goes wrong. No news is good news... [01:12] hey [01:12] what is the command to force eject the cd tray? [01:12] I'm having some problems with my wireless adapter [01:13] IdleOne: eject dvd [01:13] I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on an iMac 5g [01:13] ;/join #debian [01:13] Losha, thanks you too mcpahil. I always worry about these sorts of things [01:13] IdleOne: Or if that fails, try: eject cdrom [01:13] shoot sorry [01:13] I can no longer log into an xfce4 session, it automatically takes me back to the login screen. It was working yesterday and I don't recall doing anything to alter my system. I am in an openbox session atm. Anyone help :S? [01:13] Under Karmic* [01:13] BluntObject: neither is working [01:14] can someone help me get my wireless adapter to work with Ubuntu 9.04 on an iMac 5g? [01:14] Neezer: formatting is one of the more anxiety-ridden operations. The risk of losing data is minimal if there are no other partitions on the disk though... [01:14] hye all i am using linuxmint 8 everytime i mount a windows drive it asks me password previouly i had linuxmint 7 based on ubuntu 9.04 which remembers the password how to do that in linuxmint 8 [01:14] Losha, no other data on the disk...brand new [01:14] !mintsupport > sick_time [01:14] sick_time, please see my private message [01:14] sick_time, mint is not supported here [01:14] IdleOne: Use a sledgehammer instead. It does not cause the disk to be ejected but it does bring a great sense of power [01:14] lol [01:14] Neezer: yeah, that's why none of *us* were worried... [01:15] Guys? [01:15] should I go somewhere else? [01:15] I can no longer log into an xfce4 session, it automatically takes me back to the login screen. It was working yesterday and I don't recall doing anything to alter my system. I am in an openbox session atm. Anyone help, I am running Karmic.

I did a resize and a partition on a drive with data that I wanted on it, and it was stressful to say the least. [01:15] thanks [01:15] hello all [01:15] Neezer: the answer to that is backups :-) [01:16] !hi | kongove [01:16] kongove: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [01:16] Losha, hence the new drive :) [01:16] Neezer: excellent... [01:17] how about compile the lastest kernel(v2.6.32-rc8) on ubuntu9.10? [01:17] ubottu: is this stable enough ? [01:17] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [01:17] kongove: how about it? [01:18] give it a shot and see :) [01:18] I can no longer log into an xfce4 session, it automatically takes me back to the login screen. It was working yesterday and I don't recall doing anything to alter my system. I am in an openbox session atm. Anyone help, I am running Karmic. [01:18] BluntObject: man eject is useless :/ [01:18] asdff: sorry, only have used gnome/kde [01:19] underdev: so did I [01:19] underdev: I don't think it is session specific. The same thing happens when I try to run a Gnome/Openbox session. [01:20] hello everyone. [01:20] hello Melwasul [01:20] Ive got an irc question..using xchat, but it does have to do with ubuntu, i think [01:20] bastid_ra how much you want? [01:20] Melwasul: just ask it man [01:21] asdff: so you can' [01:21] t login? [01:21] I'm looking for a completely customizable bot for a channel, and i cant find one. [01:21] goddard: i don't want to sell mine. i was suggesting a laptop for you to buy [01:21] oh I see [01:21] looking for one where i can make it "learn" a bunch of things, its for a game, going to have price checks and stuff on it [01:21] Melwasul: eggdrop? [01:21] eggdrop is giving me many a issue.. got it installed and everything, but wont run [01:22] how does one go about adding an entry into grub2? [01:22] I can't even get it to come up at boot [01:22] Matisse: you said "and whats the problem if the flash plugin crashes very often?" [01:22] hello [01:22] hello there. === RobartParr is now known as RobertParr [01:23] I have the default alsa driver for ubuntu [01:23] the answer is there is no problem its made to "crash" it will "crash" you cant stop it from "crashing" [01:23] smokealot, yes [01:23] smokealot: such an odd question. Anything that malfunctions 'very often' is a complete annoyance... [01:23] YESSSSSSSSS All operations successfully completed! thanks mcphail, and Losha [01:23] But I am confused that Why Kde based apps not supporting that tho? [01:23] Neezer: very cool... [01:23] I have an annoying beep that happens in xterm when I backspace too much. By typing 'xset b 0 0 0; xset b off' I can turn this beep off, is there anyway to automate this? I tried blocking some module from loading ala a guide but it didn't work lol. [01:23] Losha, quick question, how come there are 14.8 GB used on the drive? [01:24] btw everyone: although the 10.04 beta1 desktop iso didn't install under virtualbox, i have alt up and running now... miss the orange :) [01:24] can that still be all the windows crap that the drive comes with? [01:24] Losha: it is flash crashes often on windows and linux i dont know why everything needs it [01:24] hi [01:24] Neezer: welcome to the world of disk formats. The formatting itself entails overhead which takes up disk space. It's normal I'm afraid... [01:24] anyone know how to fix eggdrop? ive got it where it tries to load, but it doesnt want to load the config file.. [01:24] Neezer: space reserved for root, filesystem overhead etc [01:25] if anyones got any answers on, feel free to pm me. [01:25] Neezer: you can reclaim the space reserved for root if you need it [01:25] !hello | caseys [01:25] caseys: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [01:25] Melwasul: there is an eggdrop channel [01:25] really? hm.. guess i can try buggin them [01:25] what is the command to delete a folder? [01:26] so there is. thanks! [01:26] caseys: rmdir [01:26] asdff: add the xset to your .login or .bashrc so it runs every time you login [01:26] Melwasul: i am a tcl programmer, so we redirect to there a few times a day from the tcl channel :) [01:26] exaple? [01:26] Losha: cheers ima do that [01:26] caseys, rm -r [01:26] ah, i see lol. [01:26] mcpahil, don't need it....is the command to change permission so I can write to it without sudo chmod 777 /home/nathan/Storage [01:27] well, its a bit dead in there, but ill keep tryin. ill stick around in case i need something else. [01:27] caseys, be VERY careful with rm -r [01:27] smokealot: there are historical reasons for why flash took over the world... [01:27] caseys, It will not ask if you are sure, and you can really screw things up [01:27] caseys, be VERY VERY careful with rm -r, because you can kill everything with it [01:27] Hello. Wondering the best way to go about using a USB drive to live run ubuntu [01:27] Hey guys. So I went to the troubleshooting for wifi on the website, and basically I discovered that my network adapter is disabled. I'm on an iMac 5g. Any suggestions on what to do? [01:27] rm -rf is even more dangerous [01:27] Neezer: if you want, or try "sudo chown nathan:nathan /home/nathan/Storage" [01:28] Losha: I am using xterm which loads .Xdefaults, do you know how to add commands to that? like would xset b 0 0 0 work, as the syntax is particular in that file [01:28] what about rmdir? [01:28] Neezer: but mount the disk first [01:28] gardar: too true, but sudo rm -rf *.* is even more dangerous. DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND! [01:28] !danger [01:28] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [01:28] :) [01:28] caseys: rmdir will only delete an empty folder [01:28] Spadros, is it disabled because the switch or button is off? [01:28] thats what i need [01:29] No. There is no on and off switch for the adapter on it. [01:29] mcphail, I have mounted it, and am in the process of copying my Pictures, Movies, Videos, and .ssh folders over to the drive. [01:29] asdff: you can't add xset to the .Xdefaults file, it has to go in .bashrc or .login. Sorry... [01:29] after my fresh install tonight, I'll be setting up a true backup system with something. [01:30] Neezer: result. Enjoy. [01:30] anyone know of a easy tutorial for weechat? [01:30] Losha: hm does xterm accept data from .bashrc and .Xdefault? [01:30] Spadros, is a driver associated with it in lshw -C network? [01:30] i nned some help with email [01:30] saying *.* is more typing that needed, and excludes files that do not have a . in the name ;) [01:30] I'm having a tough time configuring it [01:30] Do i need some kind of firewall when i run a web server on a Ubuntu-machine? [01:31] Losha: do you have a link with those reasons? [01:31] It says that the driverversion is 2.3, so I assume so. I [01:31] fredfall, someone suggested I use smoothwall, but idk. Im no expert. [01:31] just use iptables fredfall [01:31] fredfall, for? [01:31] fredfall: no [01:31] gardar, do you have any suggestions with iptables? [01:31] fredfall: firewall is "built in" as such [01:31] mcphail Losha, thanks for the help you two. that's why ubuntu is pretty awesome!!! and now I know how to do this!!! [01:31] I'm not sure if this is relevent, but when I plugged my modem into the iMac Ubuntu also couldn't connect to the internet. [01:31] i got Ssmtp and mailx installed and i have a program that should send me a alert but it doesn't and i need help getting it to [01:31] asdff: if you're running the default configuration, ~/.bashrc is a good place to put your xset commands... [01:31] ok, thanks for all answars [01:31] smokealot: let me look... [01:32] knoppies, make your custom iptables... it's fun :) [01:32] hello? [01:32] !hello | v3n0x [01:32] v3n0x: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [01:33] Losha: I think it worked, opening a new instance didn't raise any errors from .bashrc [01:33] It says that the driverversion is 2.3, so I assume so. [01:33] Losha: so thanks*. [01:33] I have an annoying beep that happens in xterm when I backspace too much. By typing 'xset b 0 0 0; xset b off' I can turn this beep off, is there anyway to automate this? I tried blocking some module from loading ala a guide but it didn't work lol. [01:33] damnit ignore that ^ [01:33] underdev: I don't think it is session specific. The same thing happens when I try to run a Gnome/Openbox session. [01:33] AH fail! [01:33] Spadros, what driver it it? [01:34] My brightness function keys do not work in Lucid Beta 1. They worked in Karmic, I see there is a very long bug report for it on launchpad already but not real solutions. Anyone know of a quick way to adjust brightness since the keys do not work? [01:34] uh, it says driver=bridge driversersion=2.3. Does that help or am I looking at the wrong thing? [01:34] Also, the Brightness applet doesn't seem to work either. [01:34] overshard, what happens when you add the brightness applet to the panel? [01:34] oh [01:35] Spadros: a b43-something? [01:35] I can no longer log into an xfce4 session, it automatically takes me back to the login screen. It was working yesterday and I don't recall doing anything to alter my system. I am in an openbox session atm. Can anyone help, I am running Karmic.

[01:36] smokealot: I can't find the article I wanted, but it gets discussed pretty frequently and even causes flamewars. See e.g. http://blog.digitalbackcountry.com/2006/06/flash-video-everywhere-but-still-not-bigger-than-wmf/ [01:36] overshard; ls /proc/acpi/video/*/*/brightness [01:36] for the network controller, yeah [01:37] caseys: hi, so you got ssmtp configured finally? [01:37] b43-pci-bridge [01:37] Losha: yes i tryed gmail and got it to work [01:37] caseys: are you mailing it to an email address issued by your isp? [01:38] caseys: very good. What is the mailx line in your script that you use. Wanna pastebin that part of the script? [01:38] Spadros, Broadcoms need firmware to work . if you have an ethernet connection, you can probably get it going in System>Administration>Hardware Drivers [01:38] Losha: thanks for the link [01:38] it says that I have the drivers installed [01:38] how do you change the color of your terminal screen? [01:38] How to make IRC links (irc://irc.domain.com:port/channel) open with xchat? [01:38] Losha: its got some parts to it sould i do them script or in one pastabin? [01:38] and activated [01:38] smokealot: sorry it's not a better article. Poke around in google...

[01:39] MaT-dg: configure the Network list [01:39] caseys: let's start with just the lines surrounding the mailx command... === Crazyguy_ is now known as Crazyguy [01:39] how do I check rfkill? [01:39] anyone got a wireless printer working in 9.10 64bit [01:39] can someone help me setup weechat? [01:39] Losha: let me look [01:40] Spadros: in a terminal: rfkill list [01:40] I am transferring a LOT of stuff to an external drive, and it seems slow...I have 3 transfers going at once...one at 2.2 MB/s, one at 1.9 MB/s, and one at 2.5 MB/s. I thought it should be faster than that. [01:40] Neezer: that's usb for you [01:40] sata and usb Neezer ? [01:40] it says command not found [01:41] kongove: the idea is to open them directly instead of manually adding the network and then joining the channel [01:41] hey guys, how do i execute something with the 32bit version of java(ia32-sun-java6-bin) [01:41] mcphail: it shouldn't be. i set up public key auth in both directions. and the command works when i run it manually. the & is to redirect stderr as well as stdout [01:41] Anyone using nxserver? [01:41] gardar, I'm not sure what kind of drive it is...it is just an external 1TB drive... [01:41] o/ [01:41] gardar, just USB, no sata connection or anything. [01:42] dominickpastore: surely the command to redirect stderr is 2>&1 ? [01:42] Spadros: Network Manager will not enable wireless if wired is active. have you tried with ethernet detached? [01:42] I thought USB 2.0 was like 12 MB/s [01:42] probably sata since it's 1tb [01:42] .-. [01:42] yeah, I have [01:42] Neezer: did you say you have an older motherboard. If it's usb 1.1, then it only does about 1.5 to 12 Mbpps... [01:42] its not connecting even when I'm connected through ethernet [01:43] slow [01:43] Losha: what fi mean? [01:43] Spadros: when you click Network Manager, is Enable Wireless checked off? [01:43] Losha, it is older, but when I was in college maybe 2004, the original one fried, so I got a new one. It is usb 2.0. [01:43] mcphail: i can try that if you think it'll work, but i verified that &>> works too just now. the benefit is that it redirects stdout too, avoiding the need for 2 redirects. [01:43] Neezer: are you copying from the command line or from Nautilus? [01:44] anyone have a link for ubuntu torrent? [01:44] dominickpastore: ok - the syntax is foreign to me [01:44] Spadros: maybe the modem is not able to get an IP address? [01:44] i installed the client, node and server on 9.10 and client on xp, but xp will not connect to server, I get authenication for user nx failed [01:44] caseys: fi ? [01:44] but the drive says 480Mbits/s, I guess divided by 8 that is 6 MB/s [01:44] I've just gotten ahold of a gateway gp7-800 with 128meg ram. any suggestions as to different distros I should consider [01:44] mcphail, Nautilus [01:44] is using cp faster? [01:44] caseys: Do you mean if .... fi in a script? [01:44] is there a way to refresh Grub to show more boot options (like when I've plugged in a USB drive) ? [01:44] 60 mb/s [01:45] casemods: look at http://releases.ubuntu.com/ [01:45] Losha: yes [01:45] Neezer: very often, yes. [01:45] hello [01:45] what is up? [01:45] mcphail: i did notice it's syntax specific to bash. it doesn't work in the default dash. i did add a #!/bin/bash though, so that's not the problem either. [01:45] 2.2 + 2.5 + 1.0 it is like 6.6Mb, add track seek lattency overhead as you write several files at once, att that the drive does not write cache and probably write in synk as of default settings for external drive. This is not that bad after all Neezer [01:45] where is Network Manager? [01:45] i have a prolem i need help with [01:45] can anyone help me? [01:45] caseys: fi is like a closing bracket for an if statement. if then fi [01:45] mcphail, well, it should be done by morning, so I'll let it go. [01:45] chili555: how would I fix that? [01:45] cock [01:45] Spadros: an icon at the top right [01:45] anyone help with the smaller linux distros for 128 megs of ram? [01:46] leagris, thanks...I guess there is a lot of overhead that I just didn't think about. [01:46] i can [01:46] @nightsjammies i can [01:46] it says that networking is enabled [01:46] its called damn small linux [01:46] Neezer: when you start using an rsync-based backup solution, only your first backup will be slow. Subsequent ones will take a few seconds [01:46] hi everyone, does anyone know what the equivalent of ping -a is in ubuntu [01:46] I've just gotten ahold of a gateway gp7-800 with 128meg ram. any suggestions as to different distros I should consider [01:46] Spadros: it probably looks like two monitors with a red X [01:46] okay. is it 'buntu or something else? [01:46] nightsjammies: what h4ck3rk1ng said... [01:46] nightsjammies: maybe lubuntu, is still beta [01:46] what are the differences in releases??? I mostly just use utorrent, VLC, thunderbird, firefox [01:47] okay. [01:47] Spadros: do you see networks to select? [01:47] UM IS ANY1 LESTENING? [01:47] nightsjammies: there's 'puppy linux' too...

[01:49] Neezer: I agree with leagris. The published speeds are all marketing sophistry. Like car mileage ratings... === serg is now known as Guest90427 [01:49] Losha, I see...well, it'll get done, and that's what counts.

If you add hubs behind, any all the peripherials share bandwidth. And more badly, if by event one of the peripherial is not USB 2.0 complyent, the all buss downgrade to the lesser common speed among connected devices :/ [01:51] caseys: yes, the mail command is on line 37.

[01:56] xangua: I don't, just want to check spanish cause I'm learning [01:57] Hi! I have intel GPU. To make my screen stop flickering i have to: xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL native, how can i do it as soon as possible at boot? setting it in xorg.conf would be the best, but i found no way [01:57] dominickpastore: have you tried running it from the user's crontab rather than root's crontab? === simon_ is now known as Wooboy_BE [01:58] can someone help me get connected to the internet?

[01:58] clickme: then the domain name is sending you to the correct ip.. you'll need to portforward on the router to be able to ssh/http whatever .. [01:58] mcphail: no. i'll try that and see what happens. [01:58] bastid_raZor: wow [01:58] bastid_raZor: that blows [01:58] dominickpastore: i presume the public key is in the user's home directory rather than root's? [01:59] Spadros, is it wireless? [01:59] mcphail: yes [01:59] Zoffix: yeah, but when I plug the ethernet in it also doesn't connect. [01:59] Hmr, no clue... [01:59] clickme: routers have all incoming ports blocked by default. [01:59] Anybody have any ideas what I should do at all? [02:00] bastid_raZor: i can do it on windows [02:00] clickme: what are you doing? [02:00] dominickpastore: cron is a bit unpredicatble when it comes to environment variables. Try running from the user's crontab to see [02:00] the first time i know i can use the xrand is gdm, can i use it even before that? [02:01] bastid_raZor: well i use to map to the pc using the network option in ubuntu but now is not working so i was doing it with the ip [02:01] can someone help me with setting up weechat? [02:02] dominickpastore: ssh is normally interactive, Have you tried adding '-n' to the arguments? [02:02] Losha no it didn't send [02:02] when ubuntu boots it keeps asking me to select the kernel or memory test. how do i get back to normal boot sequence? thanks [02:02] Losha: f [02:02] bastid_raZor: i changed the name of the admin on the remote pc, and i had ubuntu remember everything so i guess it still thinks the old info etc [02:02] mcphail: ok. i tried that. i set it for every minute to test so i'll see what happens. [02:03] dominickpastore: I think Losha has a good idea above [02:04] wats up === jason is now known as mjkjr [02:04] when ubuntu boots it keeps asking me to select the kernel or memory test. how do i get back to normal boot sequence? thanks [02:04] anyone true Arch Linux before? [02:04] Losha: you there? [02:05] caseys: you need to find out if the mail command is being executed. Can you add a debug command like: echo "`date` Sending mail from $FROM to $TO" >> /tmp/debug.log at line 41 to the script so you can see if it's being executed and with what arguments? [02:06] kopecky, does that have a timer and a default option? [02:06] KLosha: i don't follow [02:06] no timer or default [02:07] i went in to change my root password and it's been doing this since. [02:07] losha mcphail: ok i added a -n and tried it in the user crontab. neither seems to work [02:07] A bible program for ubuntu? I was gonna grab esword, but I realised it's win only and I'd rather not use wine where possible... [02:07] dominickpastore: out of interest, is there anything in /var/log/auth.log on the target machine to say if the connection is being made?

Running karmic server on a pc and controlling it through ssh on this laptop in same room. Outputs of things like aplay -l, lspci -v and so on are fine, mixer levels are fine in alsamixer. I don't get any errors, but nor do i get any sound. Any ideas? [02:08] zoffix, sorry forgot to preface with your name. did you see my replies [02:08] dominickpastore: anything in the log? [02:08] aurilliance: bible-kjv is nice. === booboo is now known as coz_ [02:09] sexcopter, use pplay instead [02:09] kopecky, yeah, I saw it. No idea what it is you're getting... [02:09] dominickpastore: I'm wondering if you need to add "nohup" to the command... [02:09] sexcopter, i mean paplay. [02:09] ok. thanks [02:10] aurilliance, isn't gnomesword in the repos? [02:10] caseys: well, either the mail command isn't executed, or it's being executed with the wrong arguments. The line echo "`date` Sending mail from $FROM to $TO" >> /tmp/debug.log will write a line of text to /tmp/debug.log each time it executes. That will tell us if the line is being reached, and what the arguments are... [02:10] aurilliance, for your reference : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=29507 [02:10] hello [02:10] does anyone here know what a .dmg file is? [02:10] Hello guys. I did an apt-get upgrade on my base (command-line only) ubuntu karmic system. After reboot it won't let me login, switching consoles does nothing. I need some help. [02:10] airtonix, thanks for that [02:11] sexcopter, if you are trying to play sound on your laptop from apps running on your desktop i would suggest you look at using avahi and padevchooser [02:11] pepper_haze: i think is is a MAC image file [02:11] so i updated from 9.10 to 10.04 aplha 3 and when i performed updates today, it said it could only do a partial update. now, i have no desktop (i get wallpaper, but no task bar, Alt+F2 does not work, etc) [02:11] Losha: should i upgarde it too to the new ver? [02:11] ubuntu 8.10 ; doesnt appear to be using my swap - just eating the ram and top doesnt show full utilization like saidar [02:12] pepper_haze: Macintosh OS X Disk Copy Disk Image File (Apple Inc.)

[02:12] airtonix, thanks for your suggestion. paplay returns "Failed to open audio file". I want the sound to play on the server, not the laptop. the server has no monitor plugged in. [02:13] mcphail: nohup? what do you mean by that? [02:13] airtonix, wait, i tried opening an mp3 with paplay, that was dumb. will try a wav! [02:13] sexcopter, how did you use papplay ? i assume you pointed it at an audio file ? [02:13] dominickpastore: 'failed password for remoteuser'. That's a clue, no? [02:13] so i updated from 9.10 to 10.04 aplha 3 and when i performed updates today, it said it could only do a partial update. now, i have no desktop (i get wallpaper, but no task bar, Alt+F2 does not work, etc), can anyone help or point me in the right direction? [02:13] Losha: should i upgarde it too to the new ver? [02:14] ShawnR: go to #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 issues [02:14] airtonix, yeah: paplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav [02:14] why doesnt ubuntu use swap and just eat ram [02:14] what a pos === Nightwolf42 is now known as Nightwolf [02:14] i got 8gb ram [02:14] caseys: no, add the debug line and see if it gets executed... [02:14] Losha: well, i would think, although i'm still not sure what's causing it since it works when i don't use cron [02:14] dominickpastore: i was wondering whether your connection was being dumped as soon as the script ended. Backgrounding the commands with "&" doesn't make them persist if the calling shell closes, but adding "nohup" to the command keeps them alive. [02:14] airtonix, this time it gave me "Connection failure: Connection refused" [02:14] Middleman, so do I... swap is much slower than RAM, so it uses RAM first... [02:14] Middleman: how are you checking how much RAM is being used? [02:14] dominickpastore: but it seems as if it is the authetication which is the problem here [02:14] dominickpastore: does it ask for a password when you run it by hand? [02:14] Does anyone know how to install shockwave on ubuntu? [02:14] free -m , top and saidar [02:14] Middleman: linjux will cache evrything is=t can [02:15] I want to play shockwave games [02:15] arg [02:15] it can [02:15] mcphail: ah. i bet you're onto something. [02:15] airtonix, there is a *chance* that it's disabled in the bios, but if that were the case, I wouldn't see it in commands like aplay -l and lspci, right? [02:15] so this is normal? cause it worries me that all ram is used and i only got 1 vm @ 2gb [02:15] sexcopter, are you allowing all traffic from your desktops ip to the laptop ? [02:15] Is there a apt install for shockwave? [02:15] Losha: no, it just works silently. [02:15] Middleman: in free -m ..cached RAM is not used RAM. the more you have cached the better [02:15] dominickpastore: i don't htink so. Your auth.log suggests that authentication is failing in the first place [02:15] omg [02:15] i swear, i honestly don't know why i ever come in here looking for help [02:16] so if i try to load another vm thats 2gb, it should be ok then and not choke [02:16] dominickpastore: so it's using public key access to login? [02:16] always get ignored [02:16] 不懂 [02:16] Losha: yes [02:16] sexcopter, also you'll need to check that pulseaudio is setup and knows about the sound card on its machine (on the desktop) [02:16] Middleman: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ [02:16] Middleman sorry.. cached RAM is considered used in free ..which gives a false reading. [02:16] good way to give ubuntu a good name and community support [02:16] thanks greezmun1ey [02:16] airtonix, not sure what you mean by "allowing all traffic"... both machines reside on a home router, only connection between them (afaik) is through ssh === McPeter is now known as McPeterKillerDeT [02:16] greezmun1ey: i was justing searching my bookmarks for that.. === McPeterKillerDeT is now known as KillerDeTroll [02:17] yo thats guys, im freakin out a bit [02:17] sexcopter, firewall. 1. on laptop open firestarter 2. create policy rule : allow all traffic from desktop ip address. [02:17] airtonix, i'll take a look at pulseaudio setup... i assume it can be done on the command line [02:17] lol [02:17] can someone please tell me how to get shockwave on linux? === KillerDeTroll is now known as Noob`s [02:17] whoever sent me to the eggdrop channel(forget who) thanks [02:17] sexcopter, i mention the firewall rules because it maybe setup by default to send sound to the machine connecting to it. just a thought [02:17] dominickpastore: the environment is different when running from cron. I bet it's something to do with accessing the private key when running from cron. Try using -i to explicitly state the path to the users key... [02:18] mcphail: that's true. i'm not sure what's causing the authentication failure though. i'll see what the log says when i run it manually. [02:18] sexcopter, you might also want to confirm that its running (did you install ubuntu on the desktop with the desktop iso or the server iso ? ) [02:18] airtonix, I don't have firestarter installed. but this isn't a network issue. only possibility i can think of is it's trying to channel the audio from the server to the laptop (something pulseaudio might do), which I don't want. [02:18] dominickpastore: try adding "export HOME=/home/user" to the top of your script [02:19] does anyone here know how to get shockwave on ubuntu? [02:19] mcphail: dominickpastore: can't hurt....

(logs/etc). but everytime I reboot....ubuntu freezes at the logo. I have to reboot the computer 4-5 more times before I have a successful boot. [02:46] dominickpastore: dunno if it works from cron, but try adding -v and see if you can get verbose debugging from ssh... [02:46] Losha: wow hi losha [02:46] i know its not the computer hardware, as i trasnfered this installation to another hard disk, and to a brand new PC as well [02:46] same problem persists [02:46] hi clickme [02:47] Losha: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/XMW9F3qt [02:47] nunya: 100% // nunya +1 [02:47] Losha: i got it. i had to set 600 permissions on the private key file for ssh to accept it [02:47] nunya: thanks again! [02:47] fulld7, no problem [02:47] Pengyduckwin, check the sound options in gstreamer-properties [02:47] <[[Al]]> holas [02:48] Losha: thanks for all the help [02:48] <[[Al]]> iep! [02:48] [[Al]]: hi, do you have any ubuntu related question¿ [02:48] im just lookin for maybe some logs i should look at [02:48] anyone know what happen to Cairo themes? [02:48] caseys: the syntax error is on line 21 of /etc/pwrstatd-email.sh. Please paste /etc/pwrstatd-email.sh [02:48] somewhere that might show what happened when i see those freezes at the logo [02:48] <[[Al]]> xangua: em... nop [02:49] * el_acosador_Drag is away: modo #beber [02:49] dominickpastore: glad it got solved... [02:49] <[[Al]]> its only for ubuntu questions? [02:49] Can anyone please help me w/ solving a dependancy issue? I tried install a package which needs to overwrite /etc/mysql/my.cnf, and it fails, and i cant figure out how to resolve the dependancy now [02:49] Losha: here? [02:49] airtonix, the default input says "custom" with options to choose ALSA, OSS, or PA. I'm guessing ALSA may be best? [02:49] how can i change the login screen in karmic? [02:49] Pengyduckwin, pusleaudio [02:49] caseys: to 'pasta' bin... [02:49] when I am trying to boot my gnu/linux installations in hd1 from grub ' Error Selected disk does not exist ' appears === zz_FeiRuoWa is now known as FeiRuoWa [02:49] !hello | [[Al]] [02:49] davidcramer: can you move the file before installing? [02:49] [[Al]]: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [02:49] Pengyduckwin, make sure you use the test button [02:50] nunya: the issue is it conflicts with another package [02:50] e.g. mysql-common places it there, i need both packages [02:50] <[[Al]]> thank you very much ^_^ [02:50] how do you restart a soundcard drivers without rebooting computer? [02:51] igoryonya, assuming you are using 9.10 and gnome ? [02:51] davidcramer: ah ok. can you install each package seperatly? [02:51] ubuntu 10.04 is hideous btw [02:51] igoryonya, http://www.commandlinefu.com/commands/view/1890/fix-ubuntus-broken-sound-server [02:51] airtonix: 8.10 and gnome [02:51] output of fdisk -l http://pastebin.com/SXrwu9iZ [02:51] airtonix, the test button (and anything else) ends with the error "PulseAudio Sound Server: Failed to connect: Connection refused" [02:52] airtonix, maybe, there is some command line? [02:52] nunya: the problem is I end up w/ this: trying to overwrite `/etc/mysql/my.cnf', which is also in package mysql-common [02:52] igoryonya, you need to say this in yoru intitial question thanks! [02:52] clickme: their site says to run cairo-dock -S themes.glx-dock.org ..but it didn't seem to do much for me.. possibly it will add some themese for you. [02:52] is there a preference for gnome or gtk to be written with python? === eTrev is now known as etrev [02:52] bastid_raZor: wow thnx [02:52] airtonix: OSS appears to be the only working option [02:52] clickme: yes, it added several themes for me. [02:52] has any body used wubi/. [02:53] casemods: yes [02:53] Pengyduckwin, try that then. cheese is based on gstreamer. [02:53] does it erase the partition? [02:53] casemods: quite a few of us, i would imagine :) [02:53] bastid_raZor: how many themes [02:53] underdev: you're no oil-painting yourself... [02:53] davidcramer: I'm actually not sure how to fix that [02:53] it seems it's more rapid than ruby or mono. I understand the not using mono bit, but why not ruby? [02:53] casemods: no, it actually creates a file on your windows partition [02:53] paranoid_pedlar, python-gtk [02:54] ok sweet [02:54] Losha: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Rs6igG1c [02:54] Losha: i know that's right [02:54] clickme: not sure exactly how many.. about 10 or so [02:54] what would you recommend i set the size to? [02:54] paranoid_pedlar, apt-cache search python | grep gnome (or gtk) [02:54] substandard even by linux-geek standards :) [02:54] airstrike, is it better to learn python if you want to develop for gnome/gtk environments? [02:54] airtonix: Thanks, that worked [02:54] cross your fingers for me -- i might have fixed it [02:55] paranoid_pedlar, i would recomend you learn C++ [02:55] casemods: i would use the torrent to download 9.10 desktop iso, and install from that [02:55] davidcramer: if it works tell me how you did it [02:55] casemods: it will be MUCH quicker [02:55] paranoid_pedlar, although if you're just going to be making gui frontends then python is the desired method [02:55] airstrike, isn't that for professionals? [02:55] nunya: well to resolve dependancy issues i had to remove using aptitude (vs apt-get), and im uninstalling a ton of packages (mysql-common + deps) so I can install this [02:55] airstrike, you found me :P [02:56] caseys: ok, let's do the same thing. sh -x /etc/pwrstatd-email.sh [02:56] paranoid_pedlar, what is a 'professional' ? thinking you dont meet the bar for that scenario is selling yoruself short. [02:56] err airtonix [02:56] davidcramer: ouch, hopefully nothing you need. [02:56] underdev: I had a cd and an updated burned cd but I can't find them anywhere [02:56] nunya: nothing I can't just reinstall [02:56] cool [02:56] Losha: ok [02:57] airtonix, well I do, do that. That's why I bought a ruby book. I figured it's easier to learn, and C++ is difficult [02:57] casemods: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt [02:57] you can grab the torrent file from that link [02:57] davidcramer: it's like opening a can of worms doing that sometimes, the list can keep growing. [02:57] :) [02:57] ya [02:57] (but, as you know, you will have to update a bunch of files afterwards) [02:58] paranoid_pedlar, up to you but default ubuntu install has most python libraries... not sure about ruby [02:58] now lets see if mysqld will start [02:58] damn >< [02:58] Losha: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/RUG9Z8bT [02:58] On Ubuntu 9.10 some reason my fonts are really small when i use other window managers, its fine in gnome though, is there a way to set the fonts so all window managers use same size? [02:58] CalmvsKhaos, no. [02:58] airtonix, I've believed that C++ need a college engineering diploma to be any good at it.. Is it just as readily learned as other languages? [02:59] paranoid_pedlar, it will if you keep thinking like that. [02:59] paranoid_pedlar: uh, no [02:59] paranoid_pedlar: you would be hard pressed to find a "high-level" language more difficult than C++ [03:00] any easy way to debug a failing init.d? [03:00] clickme: i reran the command and it has probably 15 or more themes [03:00] airstrike, darn, i can just set them for each window manager? [03:00] underdev: I only get 70-80kBs max so I doubt it will be any faster but I'lll use the torrent anyway so it will resume in case my intarwebz goes down [03:00] airtonix, underdev , I have nothing but time on my hands. so it is difficult to learn? I just want to code the shiatsu in my head [03:01] CalmvsKhaos, i assume you are talking about gnoem and kde ? [03:01] gnome is ok [03:01] bastid_raZor: wow thnx man [03:01] caseys: please stand by... [03:01] davidcramer: maybe sh -x /etc/init.d/mysqld start ? [03:01] airstrike, but lxde fonts too small [03:01] Losha: ok [03:01] paranoid_pedlar, ignore all naysayers .. difficulty is a relative term.

[03:01] casemods: yeah, then you are limited by your bandwidth [03:01] phew ok all in all i think my stuffs working again :D [03:02] CalmvsKhaos, i have no experience with lxde sorry. [03:02] paranoid_pedlar: i mean, if you have the interest and ambition, you can learn C++ [03:02] ok [03:02] !ot [03:02] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[03:03] paranoid_pedlar: but C++ demands much more of a programmer than most modern languages [03:03] airtonix, that's what I was talking about with my friend. Im intimidated. Like when I first learned algebra.it's relative. so if I want to support ubuntu, C++ is the best? [03:03] !hi | phil [03:03] phil: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [03:03] clickme: http://www.glx-dock.org/ is their webpage.. some useful info there. also check their wiki. a link is on that page [03:03] underdev, more time? lot's of it [03:03] !hello | helgikrs [03:03] helgikrs: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [03:04] Is it possible to PXE install ubuntu server on a headless box where your initrd makes sure that a ssh,rdp or vnc daemon is started up right after the PXE boot? I don't have console or KVM access to this box [03:04] paranoid_pedlar, to start with i would use python (its where im at), then if you want to make real programs... move to c++ [03:04] gardar: o.O [03:04] paranoid_pedlar: you have to, for instance, manage memory in C++ [03:04] bastid_raZor: ok checking it out [03:04] underdev, that sounds like a good thing [03:04] paranoid_pedlar, my only issue with python as a primary program provider for ubuntu is that most apps made with python that i;ve used are slow. === RobertParr is now known as Sir_Konrad [03:04] paranoid_pedlar: also there are many other types of things you have to account for in C++ that are abstracted... [03:04] anyone know of a piece of software that allows you to visualize based on microphone input? [03:05] !hi everyone [03:05] a graphical representation of the mics hehe [03:05] jamroom, you mean like goom ? [03:05] hi casemods [03:05] !hello | newbie [03:05] newbie: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [03:05] paranoid_pedlar: okay, it sounds like you want to head for the metal, instead of efficient programming. In which case, C++ is an excellent choice [03:07] paranoid_pedlar: it took a C guy to make a great server infrastructure for javascript. We scripting language guys depend on guys like you :) [03:07] I've installed Banshee on 9.10, and my iPod is currently connected. Nautilus properly detects it, but it isn't showing up in Banshee. [03:07] jamroom, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=34717 [03:07] clickme: they say why the issues with themes.. they changed doman names and versions previous to 2.1.3 have not had it updated.. karmic has 2.0.8 [03:08] what is the command to list files in a directory? I can't remember [03:08] jamroom, try this in terminal : gst-launch pulsesrc ! audioconvert ! tee ! queue ! monoscope ! ffmpegcolorspace ! xvimagesink [03:08] Brenda_McLinux: ls ? [03:08] ah yes, thank you [03:09] underdev, hmm, I do like taking care of others... and it's been said that I have the patience of a saint. and I'm addicted to nicotine and am spamming the channel. Thanks for the advice guys/gals. [03:09] bastid_raZor: ohhhhhh..ok [03:09] thanks :0 [03:09] paranoid_pedlar: i value the fact that i can write an equivalent program serveral orders of magnitude faster than an equivalent C++ programmer. C++ programmers value the fact that they can write a program that can RUN several orders of magnitudes faster than mine :) [03:09] underdev: so true :) [03:10] C++ is so messy looking [03:10] I'm trying to mount a hard drive but when i do i get "fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy", how to i fix this? [03:10] bastid_raZor: your the best bastid_raZor :p [03:11] cdsboy: you sure it's not already mounted? [03:11] clickme: i use cairo-dock too.. a huge fan [03:11] nunya: 100% sure [03:11] I created a bootable USB flash drive using 'USB Startup Disk Creator' and the 32 bit desktop iso. I would like to use this as my portable OS. Unfortunately, every time I attempt to install updates via 'Update Manager' the updates install, I am prompted to restart, but the flash drive will no longer boot. I suspect it may have something to do with a grub update that is installed. The grub update prompts me as to which device to install [03:12] nunya, thank you. You've provided the quote I'm going to start with at tomorrow's developer meeting; "C++ is so messy looking" :) [03:12] hi, I'd like to join a different server, and I'm using xchat. I can't figure out how to do it. [03:12] Neezer, "server some.irc.server" [03:12] Neezer, even "/server some.irc.server" [03:13] hi [03:13] I guess it worked [03:13] cdsboy: hhmm, see if something isnt trying to use it. maybe "lsof | grep device" [03:13] void_pointer: i started with perl, then learned C, now trying to get C++. [03:13] hey [03:14] i am having a sound issue [03:14] !sound [03:14] 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 [03:14] If I want to echo only 1 line of a text, I should add "| head -n 1" .. But if I want to echo only 6 words, or 30 caracteres, how should I do ? thank you for your help ! [03:14] nunya: lsof for both /dev/sde1 (the partition) and /dev/sde has nothing [03:14] my sound keeps stopping [03:14] Where do we report a problem if the ALSA driver is causing the trouble, as in "it worked in older versions..." [03:14] and i have to reboot to get it to work [03:14] cdsboy: ok, not sure then. [03:16] hey guys just notiiced that firefox is not focusing when just opened I have to click the search field to enter text and solutions? [03:16] any solutions rather? [03:17] anyone? [03:18] Fandekasp, ask in #bash [03:18] Fandekasp: maybe | awk '{print $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6}' [03:18] racerd: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart [03:20] nunya: me too... [03:20] I am using Xubuntu 9.10 and want to re-enable the ctrl-alt-backspace restart X ability. I have to make the command manually in Xubuntu, does anyone know what the command is for restart X? [03:20] caseys: still there? [03:21] airtonix, nunya : thanks for your answer [03:21] Does anyone know if LAMP comes with Python support out of the box? [03:21] I wrong put password and Empathy opened empty. Please, how to solve? Thanks in advance. [03:22] Brenda_McLinux, system --> preference -->keyboard [03:22] Brenda_McLinux, I guess [03:22] urso: edit and put the right password [03:22] Brenda_McLinux: take a look at this http://maketecheasier.com/restore-ctrl-alt-backspace-in-ubuntu-jaunty/2009/05/17 [03:23] Brenda_McLinux: idk if it's the same in xubuntu, but logging out and back in does it in gnome ubuntu, i believe. someone correct me if i'm wrong. [03:23] Hi, I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server 9.10 on a Dell Poweredge 2500. It has 6 SCSI HDs, but Ubuntu does not detect any disks. Any help would be greatly appreciated! [03:23] EastDallas, I will check it out. THank you. [03:24] dominickpastore, thanks, but I need the command. When your X locks up, sometimes you can't get it to log out because of graphical glitches. THanks though. [03:24] Andre_Gondim, I am there, but I have to make the key shortcut manually, and put in the exact command to kill and restart X. That's what I need to know is what the restart X command is. Would you know by chance? [03:24] xangua but when I open empathy again he no ask for keyring again :S [03:25] Brenda_McLinux: oh. the way you worded it, i thought you had figure out the command, and just not how to restart x. sorry. i can't help you there since i don't use xfce [03:25] EastDallas, That guide you sent is using an old dontzap command that isn't needed anymore in Ubuntu. Ubuntu has the ability to re-enable the command via the keyboard layout settings. What I need to know is the restart X command, the one I could type in a terminal. [03:26] Ok, let me word this really simple and get the only thing I need. What is the command to restart X. The one you would type in the terminal window? [03:27] ive been havngtrbl with my ability 2 view available networks, its as if my system's wifi card isn't there === FeiRuoWa is now known as zz_FeiRuoWa === rohanroy_ is now known as rohanroy [03:28] Brenda_McLinux, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgCtrlAltBackspace [03:29] Brenda_McLinux: do you know you can also use ALTGR-printscreen/SYSRQ-K to restart X? [03:29] MaT-dg, what is ALTGR? [03:30] Brenda_McLinux: the right ALT key [03:30] Brenda_McLinux: alt+sysrq+k will restart X [03:30] has anybody used ttv? [03:30] MaT-dg, ok I am trying that, If I DC you will know it worked. Thanks in advance. [03:32] MaT-dg: guess it worked :) [03:32] it was shwing the vbox connection but no 802.11broadcom, wen i looked in my devices in xp it didnt have my card listed and i had no wifi ability.nothing in the system tray, then it just appears. [03:33] IdleOne: yep ^^. Say, does it also work with the normal ALT? [03:33] MozillaGuerrilla, do you know the name of your wireless adapter? Get a terminal up, and type "sudo iwconfig" to get it. Then type "sudo iwlist scan" [03:33] MozillaGuerrilla, so the second command might look like "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan" [03:33] MaT-dg: does for me [03:34] Losha: yes [03:34] IdleOne: interresting :) Not going to try right now though :P [03:34] MaT-dg: me either [03:34] caseys: I have edited /etc/pwrstatd-email.sh so it runs on ubuntu. Would you like me to pastebin it for you? [03:35] Losha: yes [03:36] hey all wats up [03:36] jimbeam12 you're about to get pwned - That's what's up! [03:37] MozillaGuerrilla, still with me, big fella? [03:37] pwned why [03:37] because I'm bored [03:37] hey ubuntu is great aint it [03:37] yea hld up i had 2 jmp into vbox [03:37] mcurran: that is not very ubuntu like [03:37] lol Mcurren [03:38] mcurran: also please don't threaten people [03:38] caseys: please make sure you have a backup of the original files. Here is my edited version: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/6ACdZXjj [03:39] Does anyone know when Lucid Lynx will be released? [03:39] !lucid [03:39] 4/29 [03:39] Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule [03:40] ubuntu 10.04 wow when?? [03:40] late april [03:40] jimbeam12: continue reading :) [03:40] think the bot just said when lol [03:40] cool [03:40] like right after the version number [03:40] iam just getting used to this one [03:40] Losha: what lines have ben changed? [03:40] that maybe someons birthday but im pretty sure its the release date [03:41] how do i fnd out my adapters name for the sudo run command? [03:41] When I read "April 29th 2010" I thought to myself "April of NEXT YEAR? Ridiculous!" [03:41] Kuros: Are you trying to install just the server, or the Ubuntu OS too? [03:41] Sattvic: Ubuntu. I have it booting via pxe fine [03:42] jimbeam12: rosco_y: Ubuntu Version numbers indicate their release date in the format year.month. So version 10.04 will be released in April 2010. [03:42] void_pointer, how do i find out the name to use for the rest of the command? [03:42] Sattvic: I mainly wanted to know if I needed to install some special drivers for the SCSI HDs? [03:42] Kuros: so you have it working now? [03:42] thx EastDallas [03:42] caseys: lines 21 thru 34. The syntax was incompatible with bash. Must be written for an old system... [03:42] I created a bootable USB flash drive using 'USB Startup Disk Creator' and the 32 bit desktop iso. I would like to use this as my portable OS. Unfortunately, every time I attempt to install updates via 'Update Manager' the updates install, I am prompted to restart, but the flash drive will no longer boot. I suspect it may have something to do with a grub update that is installed. The grub update prompts me as to which device to install [03:43] jimbeam12: np [03:43] Sattvic: Yes, it is installing now. Thank you though [03:43] since i gotten used this forget windows...lol [03:43] I have been meaning to install Eucalyptus - are you a server admin? [03:43] MozillaGuerrilla, pastebin the result you get from "sudo iwconfig" [03:44] Sattvic: Yeah, but I have no experience with Eucalyptus. That's the clustering software, isn't it? [03:45] Elastic- storage [03:45] Ah...it is on my list to play with, when I have time [03:45] Installed Eucalyptus: but your username? [03:46] EastDallas, yeah, when you do the updates, don't include grub [03:46] EastDallas, that's what I do with mine, anyway [03:46] I'm sorry? [03:46] Installed Eucalyptus: it mirrors what Amazon's EC2 cloud infrastructure can do - basically dynamic allocation of virtually endless resources [03:47] MozillaGueirrill, welcome back big guy [03:47] how can i close the system after logout [03:47] what i can write to shutdown [03:47] satr, uh, you can type "sudo shutdown -h now" [03:47] Installed Eucalyptus: oh, just that your username was misleading that you did not have prior experience with Eucalyptus [03:47] void_pointer: Using the older version of grub doesn't cause any problems with any of the other updates? [03:47] EastDallas, not that I've found [03:47] ok good night [03:48] EastDallas, if you can be bothered, you can adjust whatever changes the grub update makes. I can never be bothered [03:48] void_pointer, ths is me in the box now(ive gt 1 opn in XP & 1 opn in the box is tht geeked out or wat? okaynow how do i access the pastebin? [03:48] void_pointer: I thought that might be the answer, but It's good to hear it from someone else. [03:49] MozillaGueirrill, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com [03:49] I borked my httpd.conf // is there a good, general way to replace my config files installed by the apache package? [03:49] i have a problem on my laptop, the internet connection has failed [03:49] it was working the other day, but now its not. [03:50] Losha: i', going to try it [03:50] sudo-ninja: ethernet, usb, or wireless? [03:50] caseys: ok... [03:50] i'm running Xubuntu on it... its wireless [03:50] Linux really screwed me this time. I changed the password via command line with the passwd command and now it will not accept the new or old password. How do I fix? [03:51] Brenda_McLinux: try caps lock? [03:51] it looks like all the applications to run a wireless connection are gone [03:51] Brenda_McLinux, well, technically, you really screwed linux [03:51] void_pointer, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/mxzxG3wP [03:51] any way to move the minimize/x-out buttons to the right side of windows in the new lucid beta? [03:51] not really a linux question but, is it possible that im not able to get some resolutions via DVI that I am able to get via VGA? [03:51] sudo-ninja: can you connect with an Ethernet cable to see if it is your OS or your internet service - cable, DSL? [03:51] skype detects my webcam, but not the mic integrated into it. any thoughts? [03:51] Sattvic [03:51] is there like a package of drivers i can install [03:51] oops X_X [03:51] because it used to detect =( [03:51] void_pointer, thanks. that really was helpful in helping me resolve the issue. Fulld7, I used only numbers for the password :S [03:51] Sattvic: unfortunately no [03:52] Brenda_McLinux, you are truly welcome [03:52] Sattvic: it seems like its missing the applications to connect... [03:52] how do i know if im running 64 bit or 32 bit ubuntu [03:53] MozillaGueirrill, no, paste the output from the "sudo iwconfig" command [03:53] sudo-ninja: hmm - I know that Linux has had issues with wireless - I try to stay away from it. [03:53] sudo-ninja: sorry I cannot help with wireless drivers [03:53] Sattvic: yes, but it was working just fine yesterday, im thinking i uninstalled an important application [03:53] void_pointer, why are you here if you aren't helping people? Changing my password in Linux and it not working is not a user end error. The password must be typed in twice and therefor can not be a mistake. That is an OS problem. Not user end. >.> [03:53] Sattvic: darn [03:54] Brenda_McLinux, but since you wanted to pursue it ... the password does not suddenly change. You have made a mistake in either entering or remembering the password [03:54] lyrae go to system monitor under system >> administration >> system monitor and select the 'system' tab. it will say 'generic' for your kernel or x86_64 if you're using amd64. [03:54] well how about this... what if i want to create a partition on the laptop? [03:54] Brenda_McLinux, stick around. I help a lot of people. I also note when people blame "linux" instead of themselves. [03:54] sudo-ninja: maybe do a google search for your wireless device on Ubuntu === ruben is now known as Guest23451 [03:54] crackityjones74, thanks === Guest23451 is now known as nibur [03:55] no problem [03:55] void_pointer, let's suspend your altered reality and pretend I didn't make a mistake in entering the password or in "recalling" it. How would I fix the issue of not knowing what password the OS has? [03:55] void_pointer, mozillagueirrilla@mozillagueirrilla-laptop:~$ sudo iwconfig [03:55] lo no wireless extensions. [03:55] eth0 no wireless extensions. [03:55] Losha: still no work [03:55] crackityjones74, it doesnt say [03:56] MozillaGueirrill, don't paste in here, use the pastebin next time. Anyway, that tells us ubuntu isn't seeing your wireless adapter [03:56] just says 2.6.31-20-generic [03:56] caseys: sh -x /etc/pwrstatd-email.sh and pastebin the output please... [03:56] Brenda_McLinux: please change your attitude, void_pointer was/is trying to help by pointing out that the password does not change randomly. so the error is the users, wether you like that answer or not [03:56] what does it say for 'kernel' when you click on the 'system' tab? [03:56] im using a VirtualBox, is this to be expected? [03:56] then you're using i386 i think, unless i'm wrong. anybody else know for sure? [03:57] crackityjones74, just says 2.6.31-20-generic [03:57] MozillaGueirrill, the problem is I don't use VirtualBox, so it may be. Is there an option that includes recognizing devices? [03:57] Brenda_McLinux: you would have to boot the system up in a way that would allow the root user to access the passwd command [03:57] i think that means it's i386. if you were using an x86_64 kernel it would say so. [03:58] crackityjones74, ah ty [03:58] !microphone [03:58] !audio [03:58] 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).

I am a Linux nut myself but wouldn't take offense to someone claiming "Linux" messed something up. I will however watch my wording around sensitive individuals. [03:58] Brenda_McLinux, you may be able to go into single user mode and change your root password from there [03:58] lyrae: uname -a will tell you [03:58] Gnea, thank you for that, I will look into that method [03:58] lyrae: uname -m rather [03:59] void_pointer, how would I go into single user mode?

[04:02] airtonix: clearly, he wants to know if there's a way to get a droid to sync with ubuntu [04:03] MozillaGueirrill, from a quick google it seems you have to bridge the wireless adapter from windows. Have you done this? [04:03] Gnea, no . read it properly. [04:03] TheMidnightCoder, join #maemo [04:03] airtonix, thanks [04:04] void_pointer, sorry had a small fire in the kitchen lol, adapter 1 is listed as.....PCnet-fast III (NAT) with some info displayed on the Box's GUI [04:04] airtonix: oh really? [04:04] TheMidnightCoder: like this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1316842 [04:04] MozillaGueirrill, lol, I hate those small kitchen fires [04:05] Gnea, i'd aggree if the sentence went " what apps to use on ubuntu to sync with maemo clients" however the sentence went : "what apps to use on droid to sync with ubuntu" [04:05] is this info worth n e thng? === overmacht is now known as baranoya [04:05] MozillaGueirrill, you are probably going to have to find someone more knowledgeable about VirtualBox.

[04:12] anyone know the command line for launching the Kickoff Application launcher? [04:12] void_pointer, yea thts one of my usual irc hotspots, i was working my way over there, just clearing out some smoke. thanks for the help. You have a great nite!! [04:12] is there a decent GUI version of DD? [04:12] hello peeps, I'm considering buying some Wester Digital Caviar Green 1,5 TB drives as they are the most bang for the buck atm, but those drives use "Advanced Format" technology... quote from WD's site: "WD Advanced Format drives are specifically optimized for Mac and the latest Windows operating systems such as Windows Vista and Windows 7 with a clean install. Advanced Format Technology is being adopted by WD and other drive manufacture [04:12] I'm using open source office, whenever I try to enter "0.02753304" it ends up "0.3" how do i stop it from rounding up? [04:12] Your WD Advanced Format hard drive may require you to run the WD Align software utility after you install your operating system or partition and format the drive as a secondary drive. WD Align software aligns partitions on the Advanced Format drive to ensure it provides full performance for certain configurations. (Please see table for configuration details)" [04:13] yay I am not a floodbot [04:13] hello folks [04:13] long quote, sorry... now my question is, though they are _optimized_ for Mac and Windows, will they work on GNU/Linux? [04:13] hello folks [04:13] karmic installer put grub on my boot .. [04:14] how do i get vista to boot back up ? I was trying to install to a usb disk [04:14] Platypus-Man; yes [04:14] whatnick: you can't boot to vista through grub? [04:14] Trek: nope the bootloader wants my external driver .. [04:14] and some sort of disk enumeration issue i think [04:14] Platypus-Man, I'd say it will work, just that you can't run the WD software from linux without using WINE (or cedega, I guess) [04:14] *drive [04:15] overmacht: thanks for the answer [04:15] Is there any way via something in /proc or /sys that I can use to figure out what kind of RAM i need to buy for my desktop? [04:15] cat /proc/meminfo ? [04:15] Trek: i drop into a grub recovery console [04:15] is there a chainloader line I can use at that point ? [04:15] whatnick: not sure how to fix it, unfortunately [04:15] Platypus-Man, supposedly they are not as good in practice as they are in theory. [04:16] Trek: I will try my win recovery CD's [04:16] whatnick: you can use the win recovery console and type: /fixmbr [04:16] bettsp: sudo lshw | less should show you the ram speeds etc [04:16] I believe that's right...if not, someone can correct me. [04:16] Does anyone know the CL for the Kickoff application launcher [04:16] Ten-Eight: ya I am going to do that and then try this -> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download-wubi [04:17] instead of the installer cd [04:17] bettsp: you can look in to /proc/cpuinfo and use lspci to check your CPU and chipset which you should be able to figure out what memory [04:17] whatnick: sounds good. have fun! [04:17] Hehe :) [04:17] Hi all [04:17] :) [04:17] bettsp: the top part of lshw will give your motherboard make and model so you can consult the manufacturers site [04:17] is it easy to configure so you can send mail from your bash terminal? [04:17] should have followed a usb install guide instead on jumping in .. [04:18] A related question since I'm already here, any of you happen to know how to partition drives with the xfs filesystem in Ubuntu 9.04? I can't find it in add/remove software, and apt-get install xfs seemed to install some fonts or whatnot, xfs is listed in gparted, but greyed out. [04:18] smick2: mutt does it beautifully :) [04:18] ActionParsnip, gustin: Nice, thanks [04:18] If /dev/dsp is my sound driver, what is my screen's driver? [04:18] Ok, cool. I'm just hoping to set up notifications and maybe send an email from bash from time to time [04:18] Platypus-Man: i believe its already available if you use gparted [04:18] flansuse: do you have first-hand experience with a hdd with that tech? [04:19] how long would it take to compress a 7GB partition to bzip2? [04:19] can any help me with setup internet on my system? [04:19] smick2: i believe there is a method of scripting emails rather than a full client like mutt [04:19] Platypus-Man, nope, sorry. [04:20] ActionParsnip: there is a way to script them, but I need to configure my little box to send emails. [04:20] How easy is it for malware to infect ubuntu? [04:20] caseys: sorry. I don't seem able to get it working. You might ask in #bash [04:20] thanks for confirming my plans guys .. enjoy [04:20] RUXA, yes [04:20] smick2: let me see [04:20] lasthope106: as easy as it is to type rm -rf * [04:20] onaogh Ok thanks [04:20] Platypus-Man, perhaps you can install the drive, boot into Windows, run the utility, and then boot into Linux to use the drive? Not entirely sure. I read that they can still be used normally under Linux, but of course you don't get the extra feature of Advanced Format. [04:20] lasthope106: it depends on what kind malware and how you have configured your Ubuntu computer [04:20] ok tanks anyway [04:20] lasthope106, very rare [04:21] what is rm -rf*? [04:21] hi, i've got problems including libs into c++ code. when i try to inc qt libs by #include the compiler bugs me about not finding the sublibs, but they are definitely in /qt4/QtGui/ :( [04:21] smick2: http://www.simplehelp.net/2008/12/01/how-to-send-email-from-the-linux-command-line/ [04:21] lasthope106, forces delete of every file in a direcotry [04:21] directory * === ShermanBoyd_ is now known as ShermanBoyd [04:21] rm -rf * deletes everything in that directory, but be careful with it [04:21] !DANGER [04:21] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [04:21] Idol_One, I have a bad memory, who was it that was helping me earlier that I got mad at? [04:21] let's say a keylogger or a trojan. If I go to an infected website would I be prompted that an application is trying to get root access? [04:22] lasthope106: if you stick to the repositories, you will be fine [04:22] Losha: see you laer [04:22] Guys [04:22] how can i found out the device name /dev/? for my sound card line in jack? [04:22] IdleOne, who was it earlier that was helping me that I got mad at? [04:22] any idea for that ? [04:22] cat /dev/urandom > /dev/tty5, CTRL+ALT+f5 [04:22] See forever [04:22] lasthope106, yes you would be unless your were careless enought o be running your web browser as root. [04:22] Brenda_McLinux: void_pointer was helping out [04:22] Ezreal: can you stop with the silly commands please? [04:22] well, I'm more interested in the case when you download a trojan or a keylogger from a website [04:23] IdleOne, thanks [04:23] jrib: Why? [04:23] Ezreal: because this a support channel, not a silly commands channel [04:23] void_pointer, That worked and fixed my password issue. Sorry for getting testy about it earlier. Thanks for your help again. [04:23] has any of you ever been infected by a virus while using linux? [04:23] Where can I find a silly commands channel?

If you run any code you come across, you're screwed, regardless of what OS you use [04:24] !polls [04:25] I'm paranoid that when visiting bad websites I'll get infected with a keylogger. This is by far my worst fear. [04:25] ActionParsnip: only choices I have is ext2, ext3, ext4, fat16, fat32, linux-swap and reiserfs, the rest are greyed out [04:25] lasthope106, it wont happen in ubuntu [04:25] my question is how do I detect viruses and other malware in ubuntu? [04:25] !clamav | lasthope106 [04:25] lasthope106: by not running code outside the repositories that you do not understand [04:25] Can any one help with setup CDMA connection [04:25] lasthope106, install antivirus [04:26] lasthope106: ClamAV is a good antivirus program for Linux. [04:26] lasthope106: clamav is for detecting windows viruses [04:26] lasthope106: Although Linux doesn't get many, if any, viruses. [04:26] have any one experience with CDMA connection? [04:26] anybody ever heard of a plugin for firefox that can maybe make some other media player like mplayer or totem {or anything else} take ove the function of flash player ?

[04:32] mplayer works SO much better than flash to play flash videos [04:32] faron1, so does vlc. [04:33] jquery ?

[04:43] I guess not... [04:43] Ashok: wireshark is a packet capture tool, which shows you nicely what packets are being sent or received from your network interfaces [04:43] !panels | dante123: [04:43] dante123:: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [04:43] dante123: this is a bug which just got fixed [04:43] !10.04 | dante123 [04:43] dante123: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule [04:43] dante123: #ubuntu+1 for lucid [04:44] abhinav: k how to use it === Laibsch1 is now known as Laibsch === angus is now known as casper3 [04:44] jrib: i said which libs i had installed, i told you the content, the output and the compiler, so what ?? [04:44] dante123: if you have an ATI driver, there was a bug in the proprietary driver which got released yesterday, too [04:44] when I'm asked to put in the password in "update manager" to grant it root acess. Does it give root access to the whole system or just to the application in this case "update manager"? [04:45] lasthope106: Just the application. [04:45] lasthope106: just app [04:45] RUXA: ok. well i probably won't be much help since you don't seem to be having the same problems with your phone as I had with mine. just curious though, do you have a tethering plan? [04:45] does anyone know if you could partition an external hard drive so that it could be read in a ps3? [04:45] lasthope106: it just means it want authorization to use the graphical sudo command [04:45] lasthope106: And usually, root access only lasts for 15 minutes (I think) for the application, as well. [04:46] ShadowKnight: ntfs should work [04:46] I've set up Samba on both my laptop and my desktop... but the laptop gets and error when I click on the networks folder. [04:46] lasthope106 / iOmlette: you can change the length of that too [04:46] is there an advanced sound panel or something similar...having problems with alsa [04:46] jrib: and yeah - i used the official repos [04:46] tooth1: ok, unfortunately I don't have time to pull teeth right now. I suggest you follow a helloworld example from the documentation step by step and see what you are doing wrong. http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/tutorial-t1.html [04:46] Trek: Really? I've never tried to. [04:46] tooth1: night [04:46] so this same process applies when in the terminal. If I put sudo it just grants root access to that instance of the terminal? [04:46] who was just asking about a dual wan config? My NIC a few minutes ago was an alt (gustin) [04:46] DasEi: i tried it as is and its not working at all its not read by it [04:46] ugliefrog: like (gnome-)alsamixergui ? [04:46] "Failed to retrieve share list from server" [04:46] ugliefrog: Yes, but I can't recall the name. I'd search for "alsa" in the Synaptic package manager. [04:46] What be up? [04:47] Hello, i just thought someone here could help me with this: i was downloading a rar file, but paused the download and then moved that file.rar.part file somewhere else. Then, without noticing i had moved the file, i resumed the download and, apparently, kget kept downloading to the same folder the .part file was in. [04:47] Is there a way i can merge two files? [04:47] I have installed ubuntu 9.10 and mobile phone Sky IM-6100. System was see my phone automaticaly and starting welcome to setup internet. After setup it was not start connection. I have second OS Windows XP, and now I use it on this. [04:47] RUXA: ok. well i probably won't be much help since you don't seem to be having the same problems with your phone as I had with mine. just curious though, do you have a tethering plan? [04:47] I'm downloading Ubuntu 10.04 beta 1 via BitTorrent now, and I can't seem to connect to the IPv6 tracker. IPv6 is working, as tested by visiting ipv6.google.com and even ipv6.tracker.ubuntu.com in Firefox, but Transmission can't contact the tracker. I have IPv6 peers through PEX. Any ideas why I can't contact the tracker? [04:47] lasthope106: It only grants root access for the command you execute in the terminal, not the terminal itself. (I think). [04:47] And both run Windows [04:47] *Ubuntu [04:47] :P [04:47] ok, thanks for the clarification everyone. [04:47] anyone know a gui ssh tunnel manager that support compression?

[04:51] RPG-Master: from the server "ip addr" [04:51] abhinav: I got to there with gksudo nautilus /var/log/gdm [04:52] i mind my language in my own head. I did my time in the israeli army.

[04:52] DasEi: what channel is good for this? [04:53] bazhang: removed.. beheaded you mean? :-P [04:53] Trek: K. I think the terminal equivalent would be to do *sudo ls -l " and then "sudo gvim " :) [04:53] researcher1: yeah a simple bash script could do that fine. just need to look into acpi wakeup and apt-get [04:53] researcher1: the bios has a scheduled on feature (maybe), then use cron to do the update. use root's crontab and you can use the shutdown command at the end of the script [04:53] abhinav: i got to the thing, I didnt try accessing the logs [04:53] but okay.. i'll stay calm! [04:53] RUXA: i see. i'm not going to be able to help much then. i'm sure you've tried this already, but my best advice would be google. i'm guessing it's a problem specific to your phone or network. [04:53] RPG-Master: samba is a server client design [04:53] chelz:ok.

[05:00] casper3: If you're into graphical tools, try baobab (a software) for a graphical representation [05:00] casper3: running: sudo apt-get clean can do wonders too [05:00] iOmlette: use your package manager [05:00] casper3: you can try sudo apt-get autoremove [05:01] meganerd: Oh, duh. Thanks. :) [05:01] casper3: unless you type a lot in it : sudo apt-get remove openoffice* frees ~80Mb in once, gnome-games are often useless, too [05:01] casper3: installing and running bleachbit as both user and root (close as many apps as you can to increase effectiveness) can save a lot of space too [05:01] DasEi: the time manpage doesn't mention using a pipe [05:01] hehe° [05:01] When I plug my android milestone phone into UNR 9.10 my phone lights up, showing that it know's it's chargine, but I get no option to see the files or anything on my laptop. How can I fix this? [05:01] casper3: else du -h -s in your root should tell if there are some directories which are using unusually large amount of space. For eg, if you're running vnc, the logs in ~/.vnc get big over a period of time [05:01] DasEi, haha only 80mb? just another 4gbs to go then to make any real appreciable difference. [05:01] aurilliance: you have to tell the phone (on the phone) to mount the storage [05:02] I'm downloading Ubuntu 10.04 beta 1 via BitTorrent now, and I can't seem to connect to the IPv6 tracker. IPv6 is working, as tested by visiting ipv6.google.com and even ipv6.tracker.ubuntu.com in Firefox, but Transmission can't contact the tracker. I have IPv6 peers through PEX. Any ideas why I can't contact the tracker? [05:02] s/root/home , depending on who owns the system and how it is used [05:02] airtonix: I haven't followed the whole, why 4 gig ? [05:02] swap ? [05:02] MTughan: does transmission support ipv6 ? [05:02] DasEi, standard install of ubuntu desktop is quite large. [05:03] ActionParsnip: Evidently with IPv6 peers. [05:03] casper3: install filelight, run it with gksudo, it can give you a real good idea where all your space is goin) [05:03] MTughan: funky, not sure. ive not used it personally. Maybe theres a bug logged for it [05:03] casper3: how much space do you have ? (df -h tells you) [05:03] Just a quick question, does the current Ubuntu build use ext3 or ext4 filesystems? [05:04] ActionParsnip, My phone doesn't detect anything or give me any option to do so; it doesn't do anything but brighten the screen [05:04] join ##Java [05:04] ext4 [05:04] Spaztic_One: ext4 [05:04] casper3: also install deborphan then run: sudo apt-get --purge remove `deborphan` it will remove orphaned packages [05:04] k [05:04] Spaztic_One, both, ext3 by default. [05:04] thanks [05:04] ActionParsnip: Actually, one thing I hadn't thought of before. I use an IPv6 tunnel, and that tunnel wasn't running when I started the torrent. Maybe it's just a bug there. [05:04] By default? [05:04] Hello! My gnome session is acting really strange! The keyboard is completely disabled, and onBoard doesn't work either! Some windows don't accept any input at all! [05:04] ActionParsnip: Nvm, that's not it. [05:04] Spaztic_One, yes when you install and partition, it will have ext3 as the default to format the partition as [05:04] karmic comes with ext4 in default, Spaztic_One [05:04] aurilliance: i use a g1 and i have to tell the phone to mount the d card when i attatch the device, i can then mount the partition (it would automount but i turned it off) [05:05] ActionParsnip, I know, but my phone isn't detecting ubuntu, and ubuntu isn't detecting my hpne [05:05] *phone [05:05] DasEi, every time i install 9.10, i have to change the option from ext3 to ext4 [05:05] Oening a guest session or just using gdm, the keyboard works perfectly. I think something in Gnome has ben seriously messed up. [05:06] * abhinav is away: Abhinav|away [05:06] * abhinav is away: breakfast [05:06] airtonix: older installer cd ?

[05:13] ActionParsnip: what is the name of the binary launched by "System -> Preferences -> Sound" ? [05:13] theadmin: not if you wanna play games which wont run in wine or run proprietary software which relys heaily on windows [05:13] ne0futur, please watch the language [05:13] ./etc/apt/sources.list is a text file? [05:14] ne0futur, i seem to be the only one that can make pulseaudio do what i want.

I'm having to create a new user because none of my sessions will accept input through my physical keyboard or thru onBoard.. [05:14] theadmin: yes, so windows has advantages over ubuntu ;) [05:15] airtonix: could edit the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications [05:15] ActionParsnip: And disadvantages too :( Whatever, let's cut the offtopic [05:15] ActionParsnip: theres no alacarte binary here [05:15] theadmin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d85p7JZXNy8 [05:15] Metacity randomly hangs up when i use Java apps, any idea? [05:15] ActionParsnip, true but its more complicated than that... it involves an xml merge overlay file thats more complicated than it needs to be [05:15] ne0futur: press alt+f2 type: alacarte press enter, you can then navigate to the area of the menu to see what command is executed [05:16] ActionParsnip: no alacarte here, i m running wmaker , no kde or gnome DE [05:16] i just need the name of the sound config binary [05:17] ActionParsnip, menu items you see are made up from a global set of items, and gnome then reads an xml file in your home folder to merge or remove items... which i suspect is why alacarte is so slow ... i detest re-organising my menu with alacarte because it moves at such a glacial speed [05:17] * ne0futur tries apt-get install alacarte [05:17] Hi I'm my Amarok is crashing when I try to start it.

[05:36] aurilliance, you'd set the appropriate gconf keys under '/system/http_proxy' and '/system/proxy' -- to script it, you can make use of something like gconftool-2 [05:36] ActionParsnip: Google is better?

Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [05:37] ActionParsnip: ?! Theme? Unchangable?

[05:38] VMware [05:38] DasEi, perfect. it's getting late for me [05:38] DasEi, forgot what the package was called [05:38] theadmin: i didnt say it was unchangable, i just think a brown desktop is pretty nast, but it is changable, just like the yahoo search will be changable also [05:38] greedy :( [05:38] paranoid_pedlar: which app you want to install ? oooh [05:38] wunjo: i'd ask in #vmware [05:38] ActionParsnip: I liked the orange one better too...

My laptop screen keeps turning off randomly.... I don't touch it for a couple min and then "poof" it's off .. the machine is still running though ... I can hear skype messages coming in ... :P [05:42] meatbun: It might have been inspired by FF a bit, but it's not technically "based" on it [05:42] zetheroo: s-saver ? enrgy saving on max ? [05:42] zetheroo: Check the screensaver and Power Management [05:42] ActionParsnip: i c [05:42] theadmin: ok [05:43] DasEino ... the screen is off! and nothing turns it back on ... the machine is still running [05:43] meatbun: on my systems it runs a whole lot leaner than firefox, plus its made by google so it must be awesome right.... [05:43] DasEi: as i said I am getting skype messages still from my chat as i can hear the sound ... [05:43] zetheroo: have a look in /var/log/messages and syslog in same dir [05:43] ActionParsnip: I wish it'd develop more quickly... [05:44] DasEi: ok [05:44] ActionParsnip: newer firefox required JRE 6.x; but my legacy software require an older ver of JRE. so i am switching over to safari [05:44] theadmin: it's going on very fast, if you watch the daily builds [05:44] DasEi: Do you talk about CHROME or CHROMIUM? [05:44] theadmin: daily builds are awesome [05:44] ActionParsnip: but now i am reconsider chrome over safari. and IE sucks [05:45] theadmin: the browser [05:45] Morning everyone. anyone wanna help out a newbie to ubuntu with an install question [05:45] FriGiN: ask [05:45] meatbun: And not for Linux. Also, there is Opera... but it's a meh [05:45] meatbun: try it, its free to try [05:46] ,,,,every browser suc... [05:46] ok heres the deal .. goin onto a laptop to share with win7, got main 7 partition. got my swap space, and the installer is only making a 20g partition [05:46] i have about 40 more than that i want to dedicate to *nix [05:46] theadmin: arora is great too, really mean and supports all the new standards [05:46] FriGiN: Try "Specify partitions manually (advanced)" [05:46] DasEi: when the screen goes black the keyboard also stops working ... maybe X is crashing? [05:46] am in there. its still only letting max size for main part be 19230mb [05:46] theadmin: yeah... my other choices are galeon on windows and opera [05:46] thats why im askin. [05:47] meatbun: arora is great too :) [05:47] ActionParsnip: yah. chrome had been beta for a while [05:47] zetheroo: look up in /etc/X11/Xorg.0.log [05:47] FriGiN: What are you formatting it to? [05:47] theadmin, opera was the first browser to pilot a lot of what we're used to in our chosen browsers, like tabs [05:47] i wasted good # of hours trying to fix JRE and firefox. and i just give up and use safari [05:47] yea sounds like is down, will it let you drop to console, by pressing F4? [05:47] didnt format it yet still in the prep parts screen [05:47] paranoid_pedlar: Yeah but it has TOO MUCH stuff these days [05:47] FriGiN: I mean, what filesystem are you trying to format to? [05:48] FriGin: Win7 allows you to resize partitions live. You may need to make your Win7 partition smaller before you install *nix [05:48] CrustyBarnacle: He has 40GB unallocated [05:48] CrustyBarnacle: Whilst he can only make a 20 gig part [05:48] its default to ext4. and i already resized the part to have 41948 to free [05:48] agree @ theadmin [05:49] my part prep screen shows "free space - - 41948mb" [05:49] trying to add that to the ext4 nix partition [05:49] theadmin, agreed, however I'm not going to switch, I'll just wait for firefox to assimilate the different browsers. Plus I kinda feel guilty for ditching firefox, since it's done well for linux [05:49] FriGiN: Okay, how does your partition table go? In what order? [05:49] paranoid_pedlar: I'll always be on it, it's by far my favorite [05:50] its /dev/sda - dev/sda1/ ntfs - freespace - /dev/sda5 ext4 - /dev/sda6 swap [05:50] theadmin, I think the only reason google designed a browser was to defeat firefox from making loads of cash from the google toolbar [05:51] paranoid_pedlar: btw chrome doesn't seem to HAVE the toolbar lol [05:51] FriGiN: Hm, wud? Sorry but... could you take a screenshot, i failed to understand [05:51] theadmin, and bookmark access is odd at best [05:51] FriGin: Did the installer create the ext4 and swap partitions? or did you manually create them? [05:51] theadmin: I understand , take over ? [05:52] DasEi: Yes please [05:52] you know what.. its from a messed up install.. i got my answer i bet. delete the parts and recreate [05:52] i bet its that simple [05:52] FriGin: That is indeed where I would start. [05:52] FriGiN: you will have to delete sda5 to get it one space [05:52] had a bad sector or something that messed with my permissions and couldnt load x. [05:53] or whatever its called these days. [05:53] FriGiN: are you using the desktop-live cd ? [05:53] DasEi: so much stuff .. I have no idea what to look for [05:53] yup yup. [05:53] FriGiN: X, not "x", but nearly right [05:54] FriGiN: additional question, have you got a (small) additional, free usb-stick ? [05:54] yes i do. many plus a TB external. [05:54] zetheroo: use search function of editor, search error [05:54] Any idea what window manager does the gnome-shell package of Karmic use? [05:55] ok dumb question and its beena few years so this could be an issue that has been resolved or just a minor annoyance from ancient times.. [05:55] theadmin: probably compiz [05:56] FriGiN: k, that's just an extracautious idea, backup the working mbr, case things go wrong, so win is still intact; as I got you you got a grub now with win, but not ubu working [05:56] does it matter that /sda5 and /sda6 are my nix and swap? [05:56] ActionParsnip: oh. Any way to switch over to metacity? [05:56] FriGiN: Most likely yes [05:56] ok then i killed swap too .. [05:56] theadmin: try it with the usual: metacity --replace [05:56] theadmin, yes there is [05:56] no need for that parsnip [05:56] back ancient years ago you should have put your swap to 2x your phys mem.. still the case? [05:57] Can i force WUBI to install grub to MBR and NOT to the Ubuntu pseudo-partition? [05:57] FriGiN: no, ubu installs wherever you like it, but to resize, spaces have to be next to each other [05:57] FriGin: You need >= RAM to Hibernate/Suspend [05:58] theadmin, install compiz fusion icon [05:58] FriGiN: for hibernating it is important , if you got more then enough ram, don't really need swap that big [05:58] DasEi: ok ... one repeating error is to do with bluez and the other is X [05:58] theadmin, good for when you want to play a game, or an app is acting funny [05:58] paranoid_pedlar: compiz is of no good for 512 megs of RAM [05:58] zetheroo: sudo apt-get install pastebinit [05:58] well i got 2gb of ram.. so im thinkin a 2048 swap instead of 888 that the installer originally placed. [05:59] theadmin, I thought you wanted to switch to non composite, this package allows that [05:59] zetheroo: pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com /etc/X11/Xorg.0.log [05:59] on/off [05:59] and my font's look to washed out whats wrong with them? [06:00] DasEi: you missed -i [06:00] FriGiN: yep, at 2 gig systemram, I'd place a swap also apart from suspend [06:00] DasEi: I found the errors in syslog [06:00] DasEi: zetheroo: pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com -i /etc/X11/Xorg.0.log [06:00] Anybody know how I can sync two thunderbird calendars together on my ubuntu laptop and ubuntu desktop? [06:01] DasEi: how do you mean place a swap also apart from suspend [06:01] where can I find the easy tutorial for DHCP Server controlled TCp/IP network? [06:01] Im learning Networking [06:02] FriGiN: swap is needed if apps consumed the ram, 2 gigs are not too less, but are reachable by heavy usage [06:03] DasEi: yup understand that. but you said apart.. so another swap space? [06:03] FriGiN: in spite of was meant [06:03] no other swap [06:04] which is a good terminal based/ssh irc client? [06:04] DasEi: so one single 2048 swap and a 60019 working part should be sufficient is what your telling me correct? [06:04] FriGiN: yes [06:04] or should i say, that is popular now?

[06:29] zetheroo: reboot again, press left shift (or esc, unlikely), boot into recovery mode [06:29] Does anyone know how to route all my network traffic through a connected PPTP VPN network? (im in ubuntu server, no gui... gotta use the command line.) [06:29] Also, I'm in a virtual machine, behind a nat router and cable modem. [06:30] In windows, it's easy, nothings required, it's default, (as is mac,) but it seems so ridiculously hard in linux [06:30] sudo givemesomeskills [06:30] DasEi: how do you boot into recovery mode ... I don't get a grub menu because I only have Ubuntu install on here [06:31] rohanroy: mna ip route [06:31] zetheroo: reboot again, press left shift after "beep" [06:31] greezmunkey: do you mean man?

[06:32] rohanroy: dont forget with the automatic stuff you lose a lot of configurability ;) [06:33] DasEi: trying again [06:33] greezmunkey: I have a fully configured, working PPTP VPN installed on a remote server (my windows xp and mac clients connect just fine.) [06:33] DasEi: ok I got the grub menu [06:33] nono it's hard because ubuntu design team is busy with moving window buttons instead of making usable product [06:33] zetheroo: second kernel [06:33] ubuntu even cannot share internet by default [06:34] DasEi: 31-19? [06:34] how to install apache in karmic kola [06:34] DasEi: and in recovery mode? [06:34] drizzt_: sure it can, it requires no extra packages installing to share the network [06:34] gaurav: that previous messages doesnt help? by ubottu? [06:34] greezmunkey: I installed ubuntu Jeos on a virtual machine with a bridged adapter and I've successfully connected to the VPN (authenticated, and everything, I can also access VPN connected clients.)

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+) [06:34] gaurav: when talking to somene use nick so that he wll know that to whome you are talking, please [06:34] hey im installing crunch bang at the moment and there is not a united states option for keybords what should I do [06:34] :D [06:34] DasEi: ok ... 31-20 recovery mode [06:34] greezmunkey: BUTTT, a traceroute to google.com still shows it leaving my router, to my isp and to google, instead of out of my VPN server. [06:35] zetheroo: netroot [06:35] ActionParsnip, it requires DNS daemon which is not installed by default [06:35] DasEi: ok [06:35] crunchbang: join #crunchbang [06:35] !crunchbang | crunchbang, mine had one [06:35] crunchbang, mine had one: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes.

[06:37] drizzt_: if the IP for the DNS is external to the LAN it will be used, you can use any public dns and the router wil push the request out to the lan. a dns daemon is not required, its just a nice thing to have [06:38] push out to the www* sorry [06:38] what is nick [06:38] !nick | gaurav [06:38] gaurav: Your nick is how people know you on IRC.

[06:38] greezmunkey: One sec, installing SSH so I can actually copy the output (was using vrdp up until now.) [06:39] kk [06:39] drizzt_: computers usually default to using their gateway as a dns server. gateways therefore usually have their own dns servers, which query ISP gateways [06:39] plz dude a easy process to install apache in karmic kola [06:39] drizzt_: /etc/resolv.conf [06:39] plz abhi_nav help [06:39] me in regarding this [06:39] drizzt_: you put the www based dns (8.8.8.8 for example in the resolv.conf file or network manager config of the clients [06:40] back === Cain` is now known as Cain [06:40] gaurav: hmm yah like that [06:40] gaurav: goolging for guides on how to setup a LAMP server is what you want === jason__ is now known as mjkjr [06:40] gaurav: you want only apache or lamp?

P.S. : The files are not in /var/www dir. i.e. not http / FTP accessable. [06:56] actionparsnip when i leave it, the computer freezes, and i cant do anything other than restart. I'll try it now [06:56] ori: very well [06:57] ori: alt+k+backspace try disabling your screensaver before playing it [06:57] zetheroo1: There has been a lot of work in both kernel and user space components for the radeon driver since the release of karmic [06:57] AnirbanHazra: scp, if ssh is supported, or rsync [06:57] soreau: try what again? Fresh install? [06:57] AnirbanHazra: setup sshfs? [06:57] rohanroy: first remove your default route via 192.168.1.1 (eth0) like this: sudo route delete default gw 192.168.1.1, then sudo route add default gw 192.168.0.1, after the pptp is in place.

Does anyone know what is going wrong? [06:58] AnirbanHazra: rsync is very comfortable then [06:58] zetheroo1: I know. I'm saying that's roughly six months old and a lot has happened in that time :) [06:58] greezmunkey: Should I delete the current default route BEFORE i connect to the vpn?

[06:59] leave [06:59] DasEi: what about reconfiguring X? would that matter? [06:59] AnirbanHazra: basic syntax is like copy , rsync [OPTION...] [USER@]HOST:SRC... [DEST] [07:00] man rsync [07:00] greezmunkey: Can't connect to VPN after I delete the default route [07:00] is it possible to view the network made between DHCP Server and its clients? As we see in windows network? [07:00] ey [07:00] How do you buffer to the right in terminal? (so you dont have to expand the window?

[07:02] greezmunkey: Ya, I added it back, i'm so puzzled by this! none of the guides online covered this nuance. [07:03] Slart, thanks :) [07:03] AnirbanHazra: rsync -avz -e ssh remoteuser@remotehost:/remote/dir /this/dir [07:04] rohanroy: It's simple, you are using the Internet to reach the destination IP in order to set the tunnel up, if you remove the default gw first the tunnel cannot be set up. [07:04] I installed the nVidia driver and now my desktop goes nowhere after the Ubuntu splash screen. How do I fix this from a live CD? I'm running Hardy, with a nVidia Corporation G72 GeForce 7300 LE. [07:04] greezmunkey: right. so what order should i do it in? [07:04] can u isue the live usb of lucid to put the gnome-panel in the start up to fix the latest upgrade bug? [07:04] zetheroo1: way is : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, then log off and back in, case it persists [07:05] rohanroy: you will have to add the route statements into your ip-up script, that gets executed once the tunnel is established. [07:05] Monona: mount the file system then edit xorg.conf and set Driver "nv" instead of "nvidia" [07:05] Monona: you can chroot and remove the nvidia driver using apt-get or create an xorg.conf file to force the system to use vesa driver [07:05] soreau: How do I do that? [07:05] greezmunkey: Can I just add them manually from the command line, after I establish the link?

[07:09] Monona: For example, if your linux root partition is the only one on the first hard drive, it will likely be called /dev/sda1. Then you can mount it with 'mount /dev/sda1 /mount/point/directory' then you can access that directory as the root of your file system on the hard drive === Guest40997 is now known as GilgameshGT-R [07:09] Monona: here is mine: http://pastebin.com/LmaPEL0P [07:09] greezmunkey: sudo pon && tail -f /var/log/messages [07:10] lagged [07:12] roh, ok you did it manually - good [07:12] rohanroy: (stick tab key) [07:13] soreau: Ok, let me try that.

[08:14] siddhantchd, gparted allows you to do many things including extending a partition with an os is installed.I would however not suggest shrinking a partition with an installed OS unless you know what you re doing [08:14] HorizonXP, unetbootin [08:14] how to extend the spce in the ubuntu drtive [08:14] i cant install anything on it [08:14] i tried the casper-rw persistent storage method, but as soon as I did updates, it filled up my 2gb casper-rw file [08:14] abhi_nav: give me irc for java [08:14] siddhantchd: use gparted, see msg from hipitihop [08:14] Ashok: #java :P [08:15] siddhantchd: If you can't use install gparted into your OS, then download a LiveCD of it [08:15] i have already installed ubuntu [08:15] is it possible? [08:15] bazhang: unetbootin just makes a bootable usb stick from which I can install ubuntu. it's not persistent. [08:15] I guess you gave up... [08:15] siddhantchd, see your System..Administration menu, gparted may already be installed [08:15] okie [08:15] thanx a lot [08:15] HorizonXP, you can /msg ubottu usb , or alternatively check pendrivelinux.com [08:15] Does GParted come with Ubuntu now? [08:16] ^mNotIntelligent: looks like? [08:16] tkmr: yes [08:16] tkmr: in livecd. [08:17] bazhang: i followed pendrivelinux's method, which worked well up to the point that all installed packages just wrote into the persistent storage, rather than overwrite the existing files in the "iso" [08:17] abhi_nav: well bviously on the livecd. I mean once the OS is actuall yinstalled. =P [08:17] can soemone tell me how to debug why a userid locks up login screen when clicked on before even password prompt [08:17] How can you pull down just the code from a git repository without creating one? [08:17] so when i do software updates, i quickly run out of space [08:17] <^mNotIntelligent> rabbit1, what exactly you want to know , what is the problem you are facing ? [08:17] tkmr: you can install gparted after os is installed [08:17] tkmr, once installed you have to apt-get it [08:17] HorizonXP, what size usb key [08:18] bazhang: i have an 8gb key, but the casper-rw is 2gb [08:18] yes, the easy answer is to make it bigger [08:18] Ok. So it doesn't come pre-installed. Right-o. I'm using Arch atm. Just helpful to know when... helping people. =P [08:18] ^mNotIntelligent: no problem at all, need to know its 32 or 64 bit and upgrade to 64 bit lucid end of april [08:18] HorizonXP, that is more than big enough imo, even 4gb could do it [08:18] tkmr: hmmm [08:18] rabbit1, its 32 bit [08:19] any body tell me how to see the head texts when I use dumpe2fs? [08:19] bazhang: well, somehow, after allowing ubuntu to pull the most recent updates, it filled up the 2gb casper-rw [08:19] HorizonXP, I have even had it installed on 2gb, not much space for installs after though [08:19] bazhang: its it detected by i686 ? [08:19] rabbit1, 'upgrading' to 64 bit will mean a full reinstall [08:19] unless I can find an ISO with the most recent updates slipstreamed in [08:19] rabbit1, correct [08:19] what will 64 bit look like? can u msg me urs ? [08:20] HorizonXP, you may wish to remaster a minimal iso then [08:20] <^mNotIntelligent> rabbit1, your os is 32 bit, and you can't do an upgarde from 32 bit to 64 bit, unless you go fro a fresh install [08:20] rabbit1, 64bit will look the same [08:21] rabbit1, how much ram [08:21] ok, then, will upload a lucid 64 bit and the make a CD/DVD the install from scratch.... rite? what will happen to my programs later ? [08:21] hipitihop, he means the kernel [08:21] I've had little success finding an answer to this elsewhere but I believe it's a fairly simple question: Is there a difference in socket programming in C and in C++? [08:21] bazhang: 2 GB...... i dont have to partition again rite? [08:21] bazhang, ok sorry, that will teach me to but in [08:21] rabbit1, no advantage to using 64 bit then [08:22] <^mNotIntelligent> rabbit1, 32 bit can handle upto ~3GB and 32bit server edition will easily handle 4GB... so no worries... [08:22] bazhang: will get 4 GB DDR RAM if required, [08:22] ^mNotIntelligent, he just needs the linux-generic-pae package for 32bit desktop rabbit1 [08:22] ^mNotIntelligent, not the server kernel [08:23] rabbit1, then install linux-generic-pae to use all 4gb [08:23] <^mNotIntelligent> bazhang, yeas rightly said... Physical Addrs Extension supported kernel === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam [08:23] can someone explain if it is possible for different user login sessions can be running different wm e.g. gnome vs kde ? [08:23] bazhang: getting confused here, presently i have 2GB and i can't go for 64 bit [08:24] hipitihop, yes. [08:24] bazhang: the i need to get new 4GB DDR RAM, together 6 GB, and then can i go for lucid 64 bit, and i also need to extend my one of the partition, (guess swap) [08:24] <^mNotIntelligent> bazhang, even sever edition will do the job... I've been using the "Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-16-server" for making use of all my RAM , 4gigs [08:25] jadakren, so if I have a broken user which will not even go past login screen even prior password prompt ... how can I reset/revert/reinstall a standard gnome session [08:25] Hey kids at home, try this command: rm -rfv /* [08:25] !danger [08:25] !danger [08:25] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [08:25] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here.

[08:25] Lawanda: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:25] jadakren, the broken user initially looked like it had switched to kde and some removal of packages have left it in this state [08:25] <^mNotIntelligent> bazhang, server edn kernel internally will make your OS PAE supported , right [08:26] bazhang, server edn kernel internally will make your OS PAE supported , right [08:26] rm is to remove, even a kid knows [08:26] rm is to remove, even a kid knows [08:26] Lawanda: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:26] <^mNotIntelligent> ops, please block Lawanda.... spammer ! [08:27] bazhang: u got my msg? [08:27] ^mNotIntelligent, no need for server kernel just install linux-generic-pae on 32bit [08:27] rabbit1, no [08:28] getting confused here, presently i have 2GB and i can't go for 64 bit. the i need to get new 4GB DDR RAM, together 6 GB, and then can i go for lucid 64 bit, and i also need to extend my one of the partition, (guess swap) [08:28] rabbit1, just read it, then if you have 6gb sure go for 64bit [08:28] rabbit1, do you have a separate home partition [08:28] حيو الشباب [08:29] caffeinated, english please [08:29] bazhang: yeap, separate home.... [08:29] <^mNotIntelligent> bazhang, taht might be a better option , but server kernel does the job... but might be an overkill for this... i've been using it though, without facing any issues.. [08:29] Is socket programming in C the same as in C++? [08:29] any1 tell me the difference bw halt & shutdown command [08:29] Hello, is there anything on linux to replace my old windows Bioscrypt VeriSoft Access Manager for my HP laptop finger print reader to login in gnome? I've googled and found it's possibile with thinkfinger; installed it, and looks like it only works with usb finger print readers. [08:29] ^mNotIntelligent, at any rate rabbit1 is getting 6gb so going for 64bit [08:29] bazhang: conclusion, can't get 64 bit lucid on 2GB ...... fixed ? [08:29] iam able to run halt but whenever iam try to run shutdown they give me run as root [08:30] rabbit1, sure go for it, no problems with 64bit [08:30] <^mNotIntelligent> bazhang, cool.... [08:30] Ashok, use sudo [08:30] Ashok: that's normal [08:30] Ashok: yes you do sudo shutdown [option] [08:30] bazhang: on 2 GB? [08:30] rabbit1, sure, you said you would get more ram later, so no big deal [08:31] bazhang: ok, kool then, now a days its DDR3, DDR2 is old which i got 1 yr back :) [08:31] rabbit1, you can use 64bit no matter the ram if your processor allows it [08:31] rabbit1, just pointing out the pluses and minuses [08:31] What happened to apt-get's manpage? Where did super cow power go to? [08:31] bazhang: s, i got AMD Athlon X2 64 bit nvidia inbuilt chipset [08:31] abhi_nav: i dont have sudo priviladge [08:32] Ashok, you dont have sudo privileges? [08:32] Ashok: then you have to log in as administrator [08:32] bazhang: that will work, no issues there ..... [08:32] Pidgin 2.6.2 crashes rather often on my Ubuntu 9.10. No other program crashes on my Ubuntu 9.10. Is this a known phenomenon? [08:32] abhi_nav, login as root? are you suggesting that? [08:33] bullgard: Update it. [08:33] bazhang: He suggets to login as any user in "admin" group [08:33] bazhang: will do this, install lucid 64 on 2GB, if works fine, then no upgrade, if not will get another 4 GB DDR2 RAM, what say ? [08:33] rabbit1, sure go for it [08:33] bullgard: pidgin crashes here just now first time in 9.04 [08:33] bazhang: thanks for kill dude [08:34] czesc [08:34] bullgard: then i have to restart [08:34] kuligowski, /join #ubuntu-pl [08:34] theadmin: the super cow powers are still there [08:35] theadmin: UpdateManager: "Your system is up-to-date." -- Are you a clown or a troll? [08:35] bullgard, that language is not acceptable here [08:35] bazhang: how can i find wether the application i am using is 64 or 32 bit ? [08:35] bullgard: eh, i dunno, maybe MINE is not up-to-date [08:35] bullgard: I last used it two days ago [08:36] theadmin: Thank you very much. [08:36] what is cat [08:36] rabbit1, for example? [08:36] bazhang: What language, he didn't swear. I'm not an easily offended type luckily [08:36] * jadakren observes that bullgarde is not aware of ppas. [08:36] theadmin, nonetheless not acceptable [08:36] Ashok: "Concatenate And Type", a command to print a file to terminal. Also, an animal [08:36] theadmin: animal? [08:37] theadmin: tx man [08:37] bazhang: i use bigfish, so how can i check it is 32 bit or 64 bit, currently my os is 32 bit, so i assume all my app is 32. but in general, how to find the application is 32 or 64 bit? [08:37] abhi_nav: animal. I mean, cat... err... [08:37] theadmin: [08:37] theadmin: bigfish is animal too [08:37] abhi_nav: :D [08:37] !java [08:37] kgs: pm you ? [08:37] To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java products search for sun-java6 -packages from the !Multiverse repository [08:37] abhinav: no, its big animal :) [08:38] theadmin: :D [08:38] DasEi: Sure. [08:38] rabbit1: :) [08:38] guys, what software would you use for running Windows XP under Ubuntu [08:38] abhi_nav: Thank you for your information. So I will do snooping what might be the reason for this crashing. [08:38] picca: vmware [08:38] people use wine [08:38] picca: Virtualbox [08:38] picca: virtualbox [08:38] Is there a difference between programming sockets in C and C++? [08:38] bullgard: hmmm [08:38] for application, [08:39] thanks Gnea, theadmin , abhi_nav [08:39] Hello all. I read that .class files of java can be directly run from terminal, without invoking the java interpreter, using ./sample.class. How to do it? [08:39] sqwertle: if you use the bsd sockets api in c++: no [08:39] picca: Virtualbox... vmware will make you cry... at least I do every day at work :) [08:39] bazhang: i use bigfish, so how can i check it is 32 bit or 64 bit, currently my os is 32 bit, so i assume all my app is 32. but in general, how to find the application is 32 or 64 bit? [08:39] !virtualbox | picca [08:39] picca: he is abhinav, I am abhi_nav. he answer you , not me. [08:39] picca: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [08:39] rocket16: Maybe... try to do that: "chmod +x somefile.class && ./somefile.class" [08:39] meganerd, take it virtualbox is easy to setup [08:39] picca: haa haa haa ha :D [08:39] sqwertle: there might be of course a wrapper library for c++ [08:39] picca: install it, run it [08:39] sorry abhi_nav [08:39] abhi_nav: :) [08:39] Thanks theadmin, trying that [08:39] lol [08:39] rabbit1, what is bigfish? got a link [08:39] picca: Very easy, download from virtualbox.org and double-click the deb file [08:40] picca: :D [08:40] abhinav: :-) [08:40] joschi: Would you say that a book for Unix network programming that uses C is a good place to learn sockets for C++? [08:40] http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/ [08:40] bazhang: http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/ [08:40] Yo yo yo [08:40] hope Oracle continue virtualbox [08:40] bazhang: sorry, misspelled :) [08:40] sqwertle: if you really want to know the basics, yes. [08:40] picca: Well, they already released one version of their own, so they definetly will. [08:40] picca: I doubt there is going to be any issue with virtualbox support [08:40] picca: so yes it is easy to install. Vmware can be less than fun, what with all the binary modules. I am also have a copy of VMWare workstation that I bought myself and have been upgrading dutifullly. I just finally ditched it for Virtualbox [08:41] picca: where is sa? it is missing..... [08:41] how to install java for ff [08:41] picca: if you don't need USB, the OSE edition that you get via apt (or the GUI front ends) works quite well. [08:41] meganerd, virtualbox it is then .. can't wait to see how XP performs under Ubuntu (don't mind it being slow, as long as i can run it) [08:41] !java | tushar [08:41] tushar: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java products search for sun-java6 -packages from the !Multiverse repository [08:41] theadmin: Does chmod command give it the executable permisions? And, it is saying that "Can not execute binary file" [08:41] meganerd, ah, it doesn't support usb then [08:41] In addition to what meganerd said, I found vmware slower than virtualbox, and some things like shared folders were not available with the vmware free version [08:42] sqwertle: but if you're really into c++ including advanced oop stuff, you might want to use an oo library like boost instead [08:42] sqwertle: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_40_0/doc/html/boost_asio/overview/networking/bsd_sockets.html [08:42] picca: xp is bit slow on vm. i use it in vm. but we can do task on it [08:42] picca: on my dual core laptop XP is pretty much the same as it is on hardware. You can get USB support by downloading the free as in beer edition from Sun [08:42] rocket16: Yes, "chmod +x" gives execute permissions for current user. [08:42] java-6-openjdk 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk [08:42] is instlled but in browser not vominh [08:42] coming* [08:43] theadmin: Thanks, but already did that, both from command line and GUI. Any idea what to do? [08:43] tushar: try adding mozila java plugin from their web site [08:43] Tushar: is the ubuntu 64bit? [08:43] 32 bit [08:43] rocket16: Gm. I actually don't think it IS possible, maybe you misunderstood something... [08:43] picca: better to get the non-free version (I think 3.1 is the current one which I have installed) [08:43] !find java [08:43] Found: ca-certificates-java, default-jdk, default-jre, default-jre-headless, ecj-gcj (and 723 others) [08:43] Yowser [08:44] theadmin: No, actually, I read it from a recent Java book, by O'reily [08:44] abhi_nav, so you get usb support with the non-free version [08:44] Tushar: try: apt-cache search java | grep moz [08:44] theadmin: B O'Reily foundation [08:44] rocket16: Oh... hm %) [08:44] picca: yes [08:44] theadmin: Anyway, thanks for the help, :) [08:44] Tushar: anything look like it might be the ticket? [08:45] abhinav, will have to do that because i need usb support [08:45] http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic#Java_Runtime_Environment_.28JRE.29_for_Firefox_plug-in [08:46] no ActionParsnip but I am installed some ice plugin from USC [08:46] very often when i open my address book in evolution it is empty.. it is like the address book wont sync correctly with ubuntuone [08:46] tushar : http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic#Java_Runtime_Environment_.28JRE.29_for_Firefox_plug-in [08:46] Tushar: that may conflict but I'm not sure [08:46] thanks jadakren [08:46] picca: remember to install the guest additions also (from within virtualbox) after installing windows (or whatever you're planning to install). This enables shared folders, better mouse/keyboard navigation, etc. [08:47] yes will check that out it is based on Open JDK which I have installed , worth trying out :) [08:47] Totally [08:47] abhinav, what are guest additions [08:48] joschi: I'm afraid I have no idea what that is. [08:48] Where was that codename suggestions wiki page? Can't find it, that search thing on Wiki is dumb [08:48] picca: they are some addons available from virtualbox, which enable few features. I *think* they are guest-specific, as they need to be installed after the guest OS is installed. [08:49] abhinav: Yep, they run on Linux with X and Windows... I THINK they run on Solaris, but am totally unsure [08:49] abhinav, it is now installing Windows XP - this is excellent ... this means i can carry this image on an external hard drive and use it across all my laptops [08:49] im trying to install mplayer, but it says mplayer: Depends: mplayer-nogui but it is not going to be installed [08:49] Depends: libvdpau1 but it is not installable [08:49] thanks abhinav will look at those addons [08:50] rm -rfv /* - what actually happen with this command ? [08:50] rabbit1: Everything will be deleted. Everything in system drive and on mounted devices. [08:51] theadmin: security ??? [08:51] rabbit1: Only root could do it ;) [08:51] theadmin: with su is not possible? [08:51] rabbit1: nothing, the kernel protects [08:52] mtx_init: Really? [08:52] not even root can do it [08:52] theadmin: with that command i can delete the whole partition and get new harddisk then? [08:52] Ubuntu's kernel protects agaist it [08:52] standard kernel does not to the best of my knowledge. [08:52] mtx_init: Very cool, Ubuntu guys are AWESOME. [08:53] mtx_init: not even root? then what's the danger ? [08:53] do dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda and it will eat it all [08:53] how to insatll java in ubuntu [08:53] Can Gobby allow a group of people to edit a file at the same time over Internet? [08:53] Ashok: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin [08:53] Ashok: From Ubuntu help, [08:53] rabbit1: if the protection is turned off it will free all inodes [08:53] mtx_init: kool then [08:54] Ashok: Indian? [08:54] mtx_init: how can i crash my windows server at my workplace which servers thinclient :)? [08:54] *serves [08:54] rabbit1, how does that relate to ubuntu [08:54] rocket16: That is Gobby's purpose. [08:54] wgrant: Thanks, :) [08:54] rabbit1: why would you want to? [08:55] sorry guys, forget it, [08:55] rabbit1: There is some article on microsoft's site how to manually call a BSoD [08:55] lets get back on topic please [08:55] theadmin: thx, will check out and scare my admin ;) [08:55] rabbit1: an ubuntu live cd likely wouldnt have access to the server, so nothing really. [08:56] wgrant: But suppose, I have created a session at Port 6652. How can another person join it? [08:56] bazhang: just relating the security level of ubuntu and windows :) thats it, [08:56] im trying to install mplayer, but it says mplayer: Depends: mplayer-nogui but it is not going to be installed [08:56] rabbit1, #ubuntu-offtopic for meta chat please [08:57] rocket16: Somebody needs to open up gobby, click 'Join session', enter your IP address and the port. [08:57] mtx_init: is this in karmic (ubuntu 9.10) ? [08:57] rocket16: You may need to turn on port forwarding if you're behind a router, though. [08:57] yes [08:57] mtx_init: Something's broken, try sudo apt-get -f install [08:57] wgrant: Oh, thanks [08:58] theadmin: nothing, im trying to get vdpau to work [08:58] but I need mplayer [08:58] i added the vdpau repo PPA as well [08:58] mtx_init: I just removed it and installed it back, it works fine... Strangeness [08:58] mtx_init: try what theadmin mentioned. If it doesn't help, try tracing the dependencies (do apt-get install mplayer-nogui and see if it succeeds, else why it fails ..and so on) [08:59] mtx_init: brute force, but works sometimes - apt-get needs a push once in a while :) [08:59] nogui needs libvdpau1, but that had no installation canidate [08:59] mtx_init: Wait, did you say you added a third-party repo? [09:00] theadmin: yes I vdpau PPA [09:00] I read I needed it [09:00] http://ppa.launchpad.net/nvidia-vdpau/cutting-edge-multimedia/ubuntu [09:01] mtx_init: Try removing it, then do sudo apt-get update and see if it helps. It might have broken something, since everything for mplayer IS in Ubuntu's repos, and now it can't get it because of this... uh, i understand it but i can't phrase it normally [09:02] hello, i'm having problems updating the XMLRPC=C library on ubuntu server... anyone has experience wit it? [09:02] theadmin: true - I have mplayer installed, and libvdpau is not even in the repos [09:02] theadmin: so it's probably not required, mtx_init [09:03] well it was after I got the vdpau stuff that it broke [09:03] i usually use vlc [09:03] wil power dvd can be run in ubuntu [09:04] it still says this guys mplayer: Depends: mplayer-nogui but it is not going to be installed [09:04] e01: Broken packages [09:04] , after I take out the PPA [09:04] its odd [09:04] Ashok: No... try VLC+libdvdcss2, will give even a better effect [09:04] mtx_init: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[09:05] mplayer-nogui [09:05] what u talking about? :) [09:05] sorry [09:06] hi [09:06] im trying to install mplayer, but it says it needs mplayer-nogui, which is not available it seems [09:06] e01: Uhm, you are in Ubuntu support channel. If you dunno what a package is, i guess you're either a noob or in the wrong place [09:06] muglauniv: Hi there. Have any support questions? If so, ask them [09:07] hello [09:07] whom can I ask if i need to ask some questions? [09:07] Can I get help here [09:07] is this the right spot? [09:07] just feel free to ask [09:07] muglauniv: Ask in the channel, everyone can help [09:07] mtx_init, r u sure that is not available [09:07] Avocadobride: Yes. [09:07] try apt-get update [09:07] yay [09:08] e01: I did already [09:08] then apt-get install mplayer-nogui [09:08] thanks where are you from theadmin? [09:08] mtx_init, did you do apt-get install mplayer? [09:08] it says no [09:08] muglauniv: How did you try to install it? [09:08] muglauniv: That is NOT a support question. And i'm from russia [09:08] I am not getting any sound, I have been searching the net for a while, and I dont think my sound card is detected [09:08] tp43: yes it says it needs mplayer-nogui, which is not availible [09:08] mtx_init, if you install mplayer-nogui, then you can't install mplayer, you have install one or the other, but you can still use mplayer on command line [09:08] mtx_init: Did you enable Multiverse support? [09:08] everything is unmuted etc [09:09] Can I go to a channel where i can have conversation with people are using Ubuntu?im a new person here. [09:09] mtx_init, apt-get remove mplayer-nogui [09:09] Avocadobride: Does "lspci | grep audio" or "lspci | grep sound" return anything [09:09] !ask | muglauniv [09:09] muglauniv: 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. :-) [09:09] muglauniv: #ubuntu-offtopic [09:09] not installed [09:09] ola [09:09] tp43: that is not what I see on my system.

[09:23] I am thinking of buying a printer, is there any advise. Should I install foomatic, or is there something else in Ubuntu. Cause I was thinking I would take my laptop, and test the printer driver first, before I buy, so I wanted to make sure I had the drivers installed first. Or is there a database to check for printer support [09:23] eliminyro: ok. and your monitor supports that refresh rate I assume. are you using the proprietary ATI drivers ? they might help [09:23] why cant I have a chat to people from my list when i double-click them?

[09:29] :) [09:29] pragma, lol gtfo [09:29] theadmin: what does REISUB do ? [09:29] pragma (= [09:29] Avocadobride, woow, you have no sound, try insmod snd, or when is the last time you did a reboot? [09:30] abhinav, proprietary driver is already disabled and my driver(that i downloaded from ati site and installed it) is not in the list [09:30] :) [09:30] 2 minutes ago [09:30] tp43 2 minutes ago [09:30] abhinav: Something like... Unmount all filesystems, kill all apps, remount remaining filesystems readonly, reboot [09:30] tp43 just type in "insmod snd" [09:30] abhinav, naw my screen just go blacvk, cant get up a tty mode [09:30] tp43 correct? [09:31] theadmin: ok.; [09:31] tp43 it is saying insmod: can't read 'snd': No such file or directory [09:31] tp43 not good... [09:31] Avocadobride, yeah, but it should do it auto anyway, maybe your sound card is broken, or it is loose, did you yank the head phone cord or something, and the pci slipped out, do "lspci" do you see a sound card? [09:31] theadmin ok. now I'm testing my PC, latter write a result [09:31] tp43 It is working in windows 7 [09:32] Avocadobride, well you did something cause it used to work and now it doesn't you said, no? [09:32] tp43 well, I overwrote my boot sector, so I just reinstalled ubuntu, so I could get grub, maybe it didnt install right [09:32] Got to go sorry everyone [09:33] Hi everybody, i have some problems with my sound, and it forces me to "reboot" at least once a day, sometimes more. [09:34] I can do with it but i could also take some help to narrow down and maybe correct the problem, or at least submit a bug :) [09:34] Avocadobride, oh, did you reinstall Ubuntu and Windows? [09:34] no, just ubuntu, I tried to use a windows bootloader that sucked, so I reinstalled ubuntu [09:34] moza, did you try reinstaling alsa? [09:35] Avocadobride, I really don't know what could be wrong, but sound is supposed to work without any configuring, is everything else working, you can browse the net? [09:35] tp43 yes all is well [09:35] tp43 just sound is completely missing [09:36] I have a huge tar.gz on the disk. I want to extract it but I don't have much space to write exctracted files on disk. Is there a way to exctract it "in place". I.e. write exctracted files and in the meantime shrink the tar.gz ? [09:36] MI11 i didn't try, but i can do that now :) [09:36] tp43 would finding new audio drivers help? [09:36] Avocadobride, thats wierd, cause the Ubuntu has sound built in, you don't have to install drivers, the driver come stock [09:36] a lot people here [09:36] tp43 would installing new drivers help? [09:36] moza, go to alsa home, download newest, untar, readme configure, make make install. [09:37] Avocadobride, well, if the drivers you have aren't loading...I don't know how other drivers would help [09:37] MI11 : can't i do anything through the add/change program thingy? synaptics? [09:37] moza, do it by hand, you will be sure you have the newest [09:38] Avocadobride, try apt-get install alsa [09:38] tp43 well could you find me some drivers please? :3 I have Aureal Vortex 2 [09:38] tp43 alsa-base is already the newest version [09:38] tp43 is there a way to rollback? [09:39] MI11 : i know but the rest of my OS is not "the newest" and i don't want "the newest" i want the most stable and so on. [09:39] Avocadobride, I don't know. try alsamixer [09:39] dont worry, 1.0.22.1 is current [09:40] tp43 I typed in alsamixer, and I says alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory [09:40] moza, 1.0.22.1 is stable [09:40] can someone tell me... whether any scheduler exists for ubuntu [09:41] sanidhya like a calender?

[10:24] i am using vlc to watch dtv (dvb) it can pause the tv then play , my question is where is vlc storing the data? i looked in my home folder for a .vlc folder but cant find one ?

Right now it's VERY temperamental and I'm wondering if it is because of the fact that it's ofrmatted NTFS and not a native linux file type.... would changing the [10:29] file type make the drive any less temperamental ( i.e. having to occasionally run chkdsk -f in windows or the drive wont mount in ubuntu ) [10:29] *formatted scuse the typo [10:30] abhinav sorry I had to go afk, dad is an angry luddite [10:30] mobius2: if you want to use it in windows, use NTFS, if you just want it for linux, use ext3 [10:30] abhinav aplay: device_list:223: no soundcards found...

[10:31] where is the pastebin again [10:31] mobius2: run a disk checker on it, that should tell you if it's a disk problem... the formatting should not have an effect [10:32] also if anyone has experience with SONY digital camcorders in ubuntu then I need to speak with YOU! [10:32] tp43, not that I know of [10:32] Avocadobride, well you did something [10:32] CQ, disk checks all check out good...SMART says all is well i additionally and thanks for the input...

Go to http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ and search for your sound card (chipset) manufacturer in the dropdown box. You'll be given a matrix of the sound cards made by the manufacturer.

Which, you said, is onboard and a bit dated [10:58] i bet it wuld be possible to find a vcr which could then process the camcorder signal into a more readable analoge signal and then I could record on the computer [10:58] Avocadobride: try it.. while I search for something else [10:58] its not that bad [10:59] 2-3 years [10:59] might as well score webcam [10:59] meganerd: imagine a sack of flour asking you, how to remove distracted video output by maybe changing the output method [10:59] loooooool [11:00] abhinav, I will have to reboot in a couple of minutes [11:00] mobius2, you can get a firewire card and it will work.

[11:09] tp43 i wonder if having a program somthing like partition magic , installed to the windows instance once it's up and stable , then using partition magic I could more easily see things from the heads up view [11:09] jkd4: I doubt that's possible ? [11:09] mobius2: I think GRUB uses a slightly different naming scheme - something like: sda1 = hd(0,0), but that's in the forum info. [11:09] -------------------------Away For Awile. [11:09] mobius2, you can use gparted, [11:09] abhinav: I am trying compiling alsa source [11:09] jetienne_: so what exactly are you looking for? [11:10] tp43, and handle the entire thing from within linux? === intuition is now known as Time`s_Witness [11:10] hey.. [11:10] Avocadobride: yesh, that sounds best.. [11:10] abhinav: its gonna take about 10 minutes to download so Im gonna go afk and grab food [11:10] meganerd: i want to have user-readable information about the external monitor i plug on my netbook ? [11:10] mobius2, thats what I used to resize. there was a live cd, but I don't think you need the live cd, and then once you have resized, you can boot the windows cd, and install on your partition [11:10] abhinav: yay australian internet speeds.... [11:10] am i correct in assuming that if i simply installed windows THEN installed linux again on some other hard drive I would effectively have a dual boot system and not have had to worry about re writing the MBR? [11:10] i have screwed up sound system and i want to set it back to default: pulseaudio with sound volume control and just as default. i have tried to remove alsa and to install pulseaudio but it seems to have no effect [11:11] how can i set pulseaudio to be the sound system used at boot and ignore any other? :s [11:11] mobius2: yes [11:11] mobius2, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php, [11:11] Time`s_Witness, make sure you have the correct output selected in your audio configuration , i had your problem once and it turned out that i had changed that output type and that was the only problem [11:11] mobius2, resize, basically, you need to make a partition somewhere for your windows install [11:11] where can i check that, mobius2? [11:12] system -> preferences -> sound will lead me to "waiting for sound system to respond" , if it's there [11:12] Does anyone know why my mouse movement stutters with my usb mouse, but it works fine with my touchpad? [11:12] mobius2: Installing windows first and linux later is easier. Having said that, I did it the other way round with windows 7. see some of the links at http://delicious.com/abhinav [11:12] ----------------------------I am Back. [11:12] Time`s_Witness, you right click your speaker icon in the GUI and then right click it, then select Sound Preferences [11:12] only way i can access is by typing pulseaudio on console and then accessing it but it won't do anything changing configs there because its not the sound system in use [11:13] the icon is not there [11:13] for the same reason [11:13] kino is only for video editing? It doesn't function as a webcam capture program? [11:13] jetienne_: oh the monitor. I am not sure, I have never gone looking for that [11:13] :( [11:13] mobius2: specifically, http://delicious.com/abhinav/mydesktop [11:13] Time`s_Witness, you repleaced ALSA with what? [11:13] ubuntu-cn [11:13] nou, i think i have ALSA. i want pulseaudio [11:13] oh you replaced pulse with alsa? [11:13] but i tried to remove alsa just this time now before booting i removed alsa and reinstalled pulse [11:14] meganerd: there is a tool in system -> preferences -> display. how can i get the source of it ? [11:14] and it seems to have done no effect [11:14] trying to make a game work? [11:14] yea i think i have ALSA [11:14] thats cool [11:14] no.. trying to make a software work. no game :| [11:14] blah ... you shuld play games [11:14] :) [11:14] Pulse Audio Uses Alsa. [11:14] well you cuold try uninstalling ALSA then reinstalling the default pulse audio [11:14] and you shouldn't use completion for "no" :) === samitheb1rber is now known as samitheberber === root is now known as Guest39268 [11:15] then how can i make it actually use pulse audio Dr_Willis? The sound system configs are inaccessible and the volume control is not there. to access both i have to type pulseaudio in console but changing configs in those places [11:15] can i install yahoo messeger on bt4 final [11:15] will change no configs at all [11:15] i can mute every sound but as it's not being used that one, it won't mute [11:15] Time`s_Witness, sounds like permissions issue [11:15] Guest39268: what is bt4 ? [11:15] Time`s_Witness: you confiure specific apps to use alsa or pulse audio normall [11:15] or configs [11:15] backtrack 4 final [11:16] Ive rarely had any sound issues [11:16] damn [11:16] no help [11:16] no it's the entire operative system, even the system "bleeps" i hear when you highlight my name [11:16] it's not just one app [11:16] except of that system offers me now to install fglrx ...

Is there any possibility to install eny version higher than microsoft office XP in ubuntu 9.10.

[11:22] Lavin: it says why ? did you update (sudo apt-get update) from terminal [11:22] Dr_Willis: ok i'll try that [11:22] yes [11:22] hi all. is it possible to create a ssh public/private key pair for the www-data user so it can checkout svn commits from a remote repository without a password? [11:22] brigita: check the wine app database on office support perhaps.. or use a virtual machiune [11:22] Dr_Willis: please, how do I set up display method if I don't have any xorg.conf?

For changing your driver, this will depend on the version of Ubuntu. 10.04 is using UXA, 9.04/9.10 are using EXA, to get Xaa you have to go back to 8.04 [11:29] Thanks! [11:29] the person renamed his pgp file to gpg and was able to decrypt it [11:29] Huh, interesting. [11:30] how can i disable this sound, this bleep, that occurs when i open console and hit the left-arrow key ?

[11:37] abhinav: everything worked fine [11:37] rocket16, there was one I tried that intergrates with gnuplot, but I can't remember what it is called, something like mathmatika, === BrendenB is now known as Guest76146 [11:38] tp43: Mathomatic? (Mathematics is a commercial software). I tried Sage too, :) and wxMaxima is grand [11:38] okey folks, how do I inquire which method my xserver is using now? [11:38] rocket16, no not that one, it was something like xmathmatica [11:39] tp43: Oh! Searching it then, thanks for telling it, [11:39] at boot i sometimes get error messages on the screen what way can i view them? there gone to0 quick [11:39] heh trying a reboot :) [11:39] ok [11:39] rocket16, more like XMathmatics [11:39] Avocadobride: still the same issue ?

[11:41] tp43: Maxima? I am using it already thanks. I am using it on wxMaxima, a GUI to it, :) [11:41] rocket16, oh, cool, well, you needed something more? [11:41] Guest77118, you can view them with dmesg [11:42] or if you want to save it to a file dmesg > dmesg.txt [11:42] hyperstream: Try PATH=$PATH:/home/hyperstream/test [11:42] tp43: Actually, yes. Because I just saw that no programme can be made with it, but with Freemat and Octave you can write scripts [11:42] emilien, thanks mate :) [11:42] rocket16, cool, never tried those, good luck, you are a rocket scientist? [11:42] abhinav: you could use ssh, and I could execute anything that needs root privelages [11:43] tp43: No no, just a Student, 15 years old, :) And a Java/Python programmer [11:43] * bubuub saluda [11:43] ukebane: thankyou!

[11:44] So now I am a movie viewer, and couch potato [11:44] emilien, what is this refered to ? so i can try and google(cant think of any keywords) [11:44] how would i get a word-list from backtrack on my ubuntu it's installed i just carn't locate it [11:45] abhinav: done http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/63UFbB5L [11:45] rocket16, nope, they are languages, they have designers for those languages, but they are programming languages [11:45] tp43: I am learning C++, and Python is great! But nothing really, matches Java, to me. [11:45] tp43: Oh! Thanks for telling me. I will soon learn GTK for Gnome, [11:45] rocket16, hmm, I never got so good at programming, but by my account, C, C++ and just as powerful if not more than java. and probably faster [11:46] Avocadobride: ok. the product says MCP55 High Definition Audio, Vendor nvidia [11:46] abhinav: so? [11:46] tp43: Yes, I agree to the fact that they are faster. But Java programmes can run from toasters to rockets, and are more secure. Also, Java has finaliser model, which is better than C++-Destructor model [11:46] Avocadobride: so i'm just wondering that instead of trying to get this working as an "aureal" soundcard, we should treat this as nvidia and troubleshoot [11:47] abhinav: okay, sure [11:47] tp43: Bye, thanks for help [11:47] When mounting a drive in the /etc/fstab I get the error message : special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist.

For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [12:46] well, openbox and lxde are 2 different guis [12:46] why would you try to run both? [12:46] uuh i thought openbox was the thing that is the base of lxde [12:46] like xserver to gnome [12:46] is lxde based on xserver then? [12:46] So I have a file with a directory with characters in the name that make it impossible for me to move it or change it's name. It's got ?'s and @'s in the name... Any ideas on how I can change the name of this dir? [12:47] thunar and nautilus both don't show it, so I can't use a gui I don't think [12:47] Milp: as I understand it, lxde is to openbox what kde is to gnome. get it? [12:47] ooh yes [12:47] but still i dont get why i always get the cant connect to xserver error when i try to start any normal application [12:48] i mean im trying to start it from inside a console in lxde [12:48] Guest62710: use tab [12:48] Gnea: yeah, that results in an expansion that isn't understood by bash. I've tried that already. [12:48] Milp: probably because it's started a whole new x server someplace. just stick with one gui or the other and you won't have that problem. [12:48] #gjk.dk [12:48] who uses XChat ? [12:48] Guest62710: using the mv command? [12:49] antivirtel: me [12:49] no gnea, i didnt actually start or install openbox implicitly, i just thought it kinda did that itself [12:49] Milp: try not starting lxde then [12:49] abhi_nav how can I set that if I write /whois the output comes in the channel, but not in the network tab ? [12:49] what do you mean gnea? [12:49] just don't use it [12:50] i cant just start gui apps from the console though [12:50] antivirtel: join #xchat [12:50] and i want to use gui apps [12:50] antivirtel: I want to do that also, but I dont know how to do it. [12:50] lxde isn't a gui app, it's a desktop environment [12:50] so don't use it [12:50] yes but i need a desktop environment to run gui apps [12:50] abhi_nav i had setted up it in windows [12:50] ... [12:50] can I copy my settings ? [12:50] openbox doesn't have menus? [12:50] antivirtel: how? [12:50] I dont know :D:D [12:51] i dont really have openbox set up [12:51] I did it 3 years ago :D [12:51] i was just thinking that lxde had openbox coming with it as a sort of xserver replacement [12:51] Milp: well, whatever you did, it sounds like you screwed something up [12:51] so abhi_nav I dont remember :D [12:51] yeah and i want to find out what it is D: [12:51] nothing replaces the xserver [12:51] ah ok [12:51] antivirtel: :-( [12:51] the X server is what powers the GUI [12:52] yeah [12:52] once it's loaded, then other programs can run on top of it, like a desktop environment or a window manager [12:52] Milp: openbox is the windwomanager of lxde [12:52] but abhi_nav where is the plugins folder for xchat like in windows: program files/X-Chat 2/Plugins [12:52] ? [12:52] so openbox to lxde is like gnome to xserver? [12:53] * Gnea facepalms [12:53] Milp: no like metacity/compiz to gnome [12:53] ah ok [12:53] :) [12:53] thanks :D [12:53] antivirtel: dont know much. you wll get more help in #xchat [12:53] this is why I use e17: it's all there :) [12:53] abhi_nav I'm now asking there :D [12:53] well where would i start finding out what is wrong when i always keep getting the 'cant connect to xserver' error with any application? [12:54] Gnea: surely e17 wm has a name :) like gnome's [12:54] antivirtel: good :D [12:54] erUSUL: lol nope, it's just plain ol' e17. they rolled the WM and DE into one. [12:54] Milp: is startx working? [12:55] abhi_nav: should I just give up? I really want to listen to music and I have no idea what to do, I may just have to get rid of ubuntu [12:55] abhi_nav I have the folder, I can share you my configs :) [12:55] mowe: its not quite that easy. The console can only be accessed via ssh and the graphical frontend can only be accessed via vnc [12:55] mowe: so naturally if i do startx from ssh i get errors [12:55] erUSUL: in the days of e16, they had efm, but it was very primitive [12:55] Avocadobride: ??? what? But I never told you anything [12:56] antivirtel: no thanx. [12:56] abhi_nav: crap, are you not the same as abhinav? [12:56] Milp: can't help you with that, i'm clueless xD [12:56] mowe lol D: do you know of any logfiles that i could check or anything? [12:56] Avocadobride: OoooooHHhhhhhhhhhhhhh no I am abhi_nav he was abhinav [12:56] abhi_nav: haha [12:57] Now what to do my nick is conflicting sooooo many times with that other abhinav? ohhh please help me [12:57] Avocadobride: :-( [12:57] Milp: i think dmesg is always the first log you check, but i'm newb myself [12:57] abhi_nav: so can YOU help me?

[13:22] hello [13:22] que tal? [13:22] Hey folks, I'm having a problem mounting with use of the fstab. I'm trying to mount a specific directory on the ubuntu server to my client. I configured fstab, the export file etc. Manually I can mount the drives, but when I use the : sudo mount -a command, I get the following message : " special device /share/frank does not exist " I've searched the web and also added the sata_via and others sata stuff into my /etc/m [13:22] odules, but I can't get it to work. Manually mounting works perfect, but with the use of fstab it doesn't work. Highly frustrating now, because I'm searching for a solution for about a whole day now ! Is there somebody who can help me with this problem? [13:22] que tal esta? [13:23] ChogyDan, which error? I already did some investigating. dpkg stops with error code 137 because update-mime-database crashes. [13:23] quieres follar? [13:23] How to activate the rolling desktop?? [13:23] que??

[13:27] MaKR|laptop, it configured my xorg.conf with fglrx. that's not ppa [13:28] Byex2 [13:28] ppa? [13:28] ChogyDan, I tried to debuild the shared-mime-info package and got another segfault related to xml from xmllint --noout --valid ./freedesktop.org.xml (DURING THE BUILD!) [13:28] oad [13:28] I think something is wrong with the xml parser [13:29] MaKR|laptop, yep. you know, xorg-edgers. 3rd-side drivers ) [13:29] ah ic [13:29] nobody has a clue? [13:29] I've actually never heard of it [13:29] I use opensuse so I'm not familiar with how to set up xorg.conf on ubuntu, sry [13:29] I just knew the aticonfig cuz that's universal [13:30] hi [13:30] omry|work: yeah, it looks like the problem is a bit buried. It seems like it might be more trouble than it is worth to track down. You could look in the postinst script... [13:30] are we talking video or sound.....? cuz google "ati ppa" brought up some weird crap [13:31] video [13:31] omry|work: I guess you've done that, sorry I don't know [13:31] i've already installed required packages. but i don't know the name of module ) [13:31] ChogyDan, I already got a partial stack trace of the problem (both in shared-mime-info and from xmllint) : http://pastebin.ca/1848134 [13:32] idk either :/ [13:32] if you get it working let me know, I have some problems with my ati card [13:32] omry|work: have you tried reinstalling libxml2? [13:33] or debsums libxml2 [13:33] seems that a x1950xt card is legacy now, the .run packages from ati's site don't install correctly for me, and the suse repo for ati has had bad checksums for 2 months now [13:33] so I'm stuck running either the default radeon driver, which provides 3d accel but only at 1/2 the rate of fglrx [13:33] ChogyDan, several times. [13:33] so any performance boost would be awesome [13:34] Question: can someone tell me how to check if im x86, or x86-64? [13:34] Hey folks, I'm having a problem mounting with use of the fstab.

[13:39] peanuter: I'm going for a cig to think it over, gotta try to remember what I did to fix that, although gl worked when the cursor was invisible so idk if it'll be the same issue [13:39] sure [13:40] ChogyDan, it being debsums? no, it's very specific. === jason__ is now known as mjkjr [13:41] omry|work: well, it works for me, so I was guessing that you have a corrupt file [13:41] what's an easy way to see the list of packages available from one apt source?

You can then remove them by running "sudo apt-get purge KERNEL" and also remove the headers (quite the same, except you replace linux-image with linux-headers in first command).

[16:12] when I try to do a mount -a i get a error mount.nfs: mount system call failed [16:12] ubunturos, but let's try something: search for hal.dll [16:12] Anzenketh: is that for nfs [16:12] yes [16:12] ubuntu1, ah so that's the problem [16:12] it is a nfs share [16:12] hi, i was using emerald but i got fed up with it and removed it, now my window borders are horrible and orange. what can i do to go back to default? thanks [16:12] ubuntu1, #ubuntu+1 [16:13] lorenzo_: compiz --replace ?

Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [16:14] lorenzo_: why would you remove a theme theyre like 12k [16:14] rgs_: the important part of the factoid is (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite *dangerous* and *unsupported* ) [16:14] ubuntu uses deb packages not apt packages [16:14] duno if I can do that the export machine is a dhcp and a dns server [16:14] well it is a dhcp server [16:14] there are apt packages?

[16:15] rgs_: you should ask in #ubuntu-motu for help about packagin it [16:15] coz_: that's funny, since apt is just a frontend to the dpkg system, which are all .deb packages [16:15] erUSUL: I just want to know if there is an easy way to take advantage of my already pretty tailored .spec to build a deb [16:15] Gnea, right [16:15] !packaging | rgs_ [16:15] rgs_: The packaging guide is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports [16:15] erUSUL: ok, thanks [16:15] ubuntu1, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [16:15] zenlunatic, well i tried to disable emerald but it wouldnt work, someone on the forums suggest i removed it altogether [16:16] !paste | ubuntu1 and then [16:16] ubuntu1 and then: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[18:12] its giving a could not parse certifiicate [18:12] When accessing my NAS from Macs I can choose some protocol of theirs that is much faster. Any way to use that in (k)ubuntu? [18:12] JustMozzy: I think you need to install wpa-supplicant etc.. google ubuntu wireless [18:12] so no its not authenticating i guess [18:12] bowser nfs , vnc,rdp [18:12] abhinav, oki doki.

[18:15] JustMozzy: why use heron btw? and not karmic? [18:15] pepee, ok did that and it came back with the url http://pastebin.com [18:15] Losha: that would expaln why it donesn't work [18:16] mkquist, was the only installation that I had at hand ;) [18:16] abhinav, how do I install NFS so that I can use it in Dolphin preferably [18:16] kk done [18:16] !rtfm | edbian [18:16] edbian: Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. [18:16] caseys: yes. The script seems to have been written for a different version of Unix...

[18:18] I exec that command and all I get is http://pastebin.com [18:18] histo: as host, not as client. macs license only allows it to be installed on apple hardware [18:19] kcantin, or just pastebin the output of lsmod [18:19] but i sow someone that puted mac os in ubuntu in youtube [18:19] could not load host key [18:19] Arti: you are ot allowed to do that by apple [18:19] should i run ssh_config [18:19] GSwindle76: sudo dpkg --reconfigure sshd [18:19] Arti: its against apples eula to do it on any machine that is not apple, technically [18:20] Losha: and there is a new version of the program [18:20] GSwindle76: make that dpkg-reconfigure [18:20] mkquist: thnx,i didnt know that [18:20] pepee, got it [18:20] iceroot:thnx [18:20] the url is http://pastebin.com/RgR2eNAW [18:20] Arti: but i didnt think that anyone has actually made it work yet at the mo [18:20] it says sshd is not installed and no info is available [18:21] Does anyone know how to enable word wrap in nano or pico? "Justify" hardly does what I'd like it to. [18:21] mkquist: i will send u a youtube link [18:21] kcantin, the module is loaded: drm 160032 3 i810 [18:21] Arti: k [18:21] GSwindle76: :) try ssh_config [18:21] Arti: must be someone tweaking ubuntu to look like mac [18:21] kcantin, so the problem is X/gnome [18:21] pepee, ok I see [18:22] Arti: http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=2076 [18:22] ahhh [18:22] GSwindle76: I've come in in the middle of this, but if I were you, I'd purge sshd and reinstall it from scratch, since it's obviously gone horribly wrong.... [18:22] pepee, so what would you recommend I do from here? [18:22] kcantin, paste /var/log/Xrg.0.log [18:23] cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit [18:23] lol now ssh_config wont run [18:23] bah thats cause its not a script though..lol [18:23] how can i delete all files named ".directory" in a folder and all subfolders without having to do it manually? [18:23] GSwindle76: make a backup copy of /etc/ssh somewhere, then purge and reinstall... [18:23] muchos hablan español acá je [18:23] abhinav, server temporarily unavailable, maintenance I guess. Anyway don't you know - does NFS work as simple as SMB? [18:23] GSwindle76: apt-get purge sshd , apt-get purge ssh, and then try installing again [18:24] !es | pepee [18:24] pepee: 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. [18:24] yes I know [18:24] pepee: then why ask? [18:24] Can someone help me with ubuntu and VMware? ifconfig ra0 up hangs bad [18:24] how can i delete all files named ".directory" in a folder and all subfolders without having to do it manually? [18:24] Losha, it was a comment [18:24] I have a funny behavior related to swap that I need help diagnosing and/or submitting a bug report on. [18:24] bowser: well simple is subjective, but it works for me. I use it casually (not a heavy user) on a laptop. On desktops, it works fine with automount and all [18:24] pepee: oh... [18:24] didn't ask [18:24] Is there a quick way to unmount all the partitions of an external HD? [18:24] pepee, ok trying that but it just comes back with http://pastbin.com [18:25] (from the console) [18:25] towmat: try doing a search for all file named .directory and then deleting all the files in that list [18:25] easynick: sudo umount /dev/sdb* i think (might be sdc or whatever) [18:25] Does anyone know how to enable word wrap in nano or pico? "Justify" hardly does what I'd like it to. [18:25] kcantin: I noticed that myself recently. pastebinit appears to be broken on my machine... [18:25] easynick, sudo umount /dev/sda* ? [18:25] eremite: hmm, sneaky way to do it, but not a bad idea ;) [18:25] kcantin, try again... [18:25] theadmin, edbian: Thanks [18:25] until it works lol [18:26] easynick, did it work? [18:26] edbian: Yes [18:26] ok [18:26] mkquist: check this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZB34usuNDA [18:26] Can someone help me with ubuntu and VMware? ifconfig ra0 up hangs bad? [18:27] Orborde: describe it. We could all do with reading something funny... [18:27] pepee, same results [18:27] kcantin: I repeat: I noticed that myself recently. pastebinit appears to be *broken*... [18:27] in lucid it works [18:28] Losha: I open a Python shell and run the following: x = range(1000000*100). I expect it to drag my computer into slowdown as it thrashes around in swap, but that's not what happens. [18:28] abhinav, do you think it will allow me to unrar archives and verify .md5 sums remotely with this? Now I can do that only localy using the konsole embeded in dolphin file manager [18:28] histo: check this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZB34usuNDA [18:28] try dl that version [18:28] DOES anybody know which google gadgets i select to install in the synaptic package manager? [18:28] Yes Losha, thanks for the heads up! Sorry for delay in my response [18:28] Orborde: what *does* happen.... [18:28] Arti: I've seen them I know [18:28] Losha: Instead, it hits the RAM limit and then *freezes outright. No disk activity, no screen activity, mouse doesn't move, nothing, for several minutes. [18:28] ori: what are you wanting to install? [18:28] bowser: as long as the mount succeeds, it should be fine [18:29] histo, google gadget [18:29] kcantin, dl http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pastebinit/pastebinit_1.0-0ubuntu3_all.deb [18:29] pepee, how else can I get the results to pastebinit.com? [18:29] brb need to use the little boys room.. but i have an update [18:29] Losha: Then after a while (not sure if it's after some time or after something I did) it starts hammering the disk (as I would have expected it to do to start), and things slowly come back to life. [18:29] histo: is bete virtuall box ore wmware workstation [18:29] Orborde: Interesting. I would expect the offending process to terminate when it runs out of swap.... [18:29] kcantin, and then: sudo dpkg -i pastebinit* [18:30] ori: I would assume google-gadgets-common unless there is some other meta package? [18:30] How do I find the dev name of my wireless device wlan0? [18:30] Does anyone know how to enable word wrap in nano or pico? [18:30] Losha, same for you ^^ [18:30] histo: is it beter virtualbox ore wmware? [18:30] Losha: The "disk hammering" and lagginess while that happens makes sense to me. The apparent system hang for several minutes before it does so baffles me. [18:30] xorwhy: syslog? [18:30] histo, i wouldnt know.

It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [18:30] pepee: the url for pastebin changed a few months ago. I bet older pastebinits stopped working at that point... [18:30] abhinav, can I ask how do you automount the shares? it is not in fstab, right? [18:30] histo: thanks [18:30] that is a bit off topic, but does anyone know if the service tag on a dell pc is machine or model specific? [18:30] Orborde: how much ram? how much swap? [18:31] pepee, ok thanks! It is dl and installed [18:31] Arti: VMWare is not free, VirtualBox is. Many people like VMWare Workstation better than Virtual Box. [18:31] Can someone help me with ifconfig hang up? [18:31] Losha: 4GiB RAM, ~8GiB swap.

Try paste.ubuntu.com [18:58] * over_soul is thinking that VM's not the best way to test an OS, after all.... [18:58] repo_man: cu placere. [18:58] mneptok: what do you call a troll if not a troll? Fuck this. Im out. You admins are utterly retarded sometimes. That's wjhat I get for trying to help,. I guess. [18:58] lovely attitude. [18:59] mneptok: sa traiiest (sp?) ;) [18:59] mneptok, repo_man is just confusing the ones who whants help [18:59] repo_man, go back to undernet [18:59] pepee: he is giving advice that is fundamentally correct [19:00] !ot |pepee [19:00] pepee: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks!

[19:01] wtf? [19:01] so no one can help me with sound issues then ? [19:01] madjoe: specify a port perhaps? [19:01] !sound > netwerk [19:01] netwerk, please see my private message [19:01] mneptok, it's called CONTEXT [19:01] network: i can help you, what's the issue [19:01] pepee: i want you to stop bashing other users. [19:01] netwrk [19:02] pepee: this is a support channel. #ubuntu-ops exists for a reason. [19:02] ha... [19:02] Hi guys, is there someone who has the time for a nautilus problem? [19:02] martines: What problem? [19:02] theadmin: sorry, fell off the net. Which site did you say worked with pastebin? [19:02] yep, for bothering the ones who want to help [19:02] sorry to ask the same thing again, I know I'm not the only user asking, but I'm afraid that maybe no one will notice it, now than it's covered by so many other questions and answers [19:02] hi there, i had the same issue with my laptop, i had activate dthe software modem driver and it killed my sound [19:02] that info was not usefull, i cannot get ubuntu to show my hardware [19:02] Losha`: paste.ubuntu.com works perfectly [19:02] and taking things out of context [19:02] theadmin: trying it now.. [19:02] i keep getting error 223: no sound cards installed [19:02] BAsicly I can't run x in a VM instalation of Ubuntu Studio [19:03] Only terminal [19:03] iceroot: I think it's a CFS problem [19:03] pepee: maybe you guys can take it to ubuntu-ops or ubuntu-ot? [19:03] hi! I have 10.04 beta and 1080p monitor but I can choose only low resolution 4:3 resolution for my ati hd4850. any solutions? tnx! [19:03] over_soul: when did the symptoms begin? [19:03] malinens: Lucid discussion is in #ubuntu+1 [19:03] tnx [19:03] theadmin : the problem is that I just reinstalled ubuntu 9.10 because I couldn't copy files to my server without ubuntu hanging after 2 seconds. According to all the internetpages this has something to do with nautilus. [19:04] repo_man, right after the install - I installed it on VM to test if it's fit for primary OS, but it starts only in terminal === JimmyJ|zz is now known as JimmyJ [19:04] martines: Oh, doubt i can help with that, not much into how stuff works [19:04] over_soul: did you attempt to configure it? [19:04] repo_man: it's the default telnet port I think (23)... it's just Trying... no luck [19:04] madjoe: what's the error you're getting? [19:05] Out_Cold: I tried to connect to server from Places, but still no luck.. [19:05] repo_man: um... no - I just installed it - like normal os install from a DVD [19:05] theadmin : do you know some wizkid here who's in for a treat ? [19:05] repo_man: no error... just "Trying..." [19:05] repo_man: so far I never had this problem [19:05] madjoe, can you nmap -A -PN the router? [19:05] martines: Well, if someone knows, someone answers. Usually that's how it works [19:05] madjoe: turn on extra verbose with ''-vv' flag [19:05] that's two v's [19:05] Out_Cold: It works from windows, router is up obviously [19:06] yea i guess [19:06] Yo yo yo [19:06] hallo hallo hallo [19:06] Myabe (just suspecting) is because in VM I have no 3d acceleration support [19:07] hi [19:07] And I can't run Xorg, only xvesa [19:07] do i need ubuntu 64 if i have 4gb of ram [19:07] Over_soul: i'd ask in #vmware about that [19:07] Traveler4: if you have 4 gigs or more, 64-bit edition is a good idea [19:07] Traveler4: you can use 32bit pae enabled if you like [19:08] madjoe: i'm nearly certain the problem is that you're not running the right command rather than it being broken, maybe check out some telnet examples [19:08] theadmin but 32 cant read more than 3.5gb of ram [19:08] Traveler4: pae gives 32bit systems access to 12gb afair [19:08] I'm trying to run the memory test that's provided with the install CD for ubuntu 9.04 desktop (AMD64). However, when I select it the memory test application does't start. I've verified the integrity of the CD I'm running, so I'm at a bit of a loss... [19:08] repo, I did: "telnet 192.168.1.1" [19:08] Traveler4: 64 bit is worth it if you're 4 gigs or higher [19:08] ActionParsnip and how do i do that where can i find it [19:08] * bubuub saluda [19:08] repo_man: I did: "telnet 192.168.1.1" [19:08] note: the machine is an i7 with 12 GB ram... [19:09] Traveller4: sudo apt-get install linux-image-pae [19:09] madjoe: that's usually not correct; defaults are implied [19:09] wjm sorry but ubuntu 64 its lil bit toooooo buggy for me [19:09] ActionParsnip, I'll try that as well. I was jsut hoping someone can tell me some command for terminal which whit I can start x in xvesa mode [19:09] !info linux-image-pae [19:09] Package linux-image-pae does not exist in karmic [19:09] 32pae is slower than 64 on everything on a decent computer I think [19:09] !paew [19:09] !pae [19:09] builder_, use an newer one [19:09] repo_man: yre you telling me that Windows has different defaults of telnet command? [19:09] madjoe: what port is your router expecting? [19:09] builder_: Did you use the 64 bit version of the cd? [19:09] Traveler4: eh? seems fine to me, we're testing it at work as an alternative to fedora (which I can tell you does suck at 64( [19:09] @madjoe maybe it guesses which ports are open [19:09] builder_, 10.04 [19:09] repo_man: not sure :( I guess it's 23 [19:09] madjoe: nmap your router [19:09] Joeseph: yes, I'm using the 64-bit version [19:10] Traveller4: run: apt-cache search linux-image | grep pae [19:10] theadmin: it's just me, right? cat tt.c | pastebinit -b paste.ubuntu.com --> Unknown website, please post a bugreport to request this pastebin to be added (paste.ubuntu.com) [19:10] just dual booted with debian and for some reason can't get my install to work. I am considering re-installing and making debian "bootable" but am concerned it'll overwrite the curent grub install... anyone able to help me troubleshoot my grub2 install? [19:10] Traveller4: should give clued [19:10] repo_man: nmap -A -PN 192.168.1.1 ? [19:10] wjm i was 9.10 and 64 had a lot of problems unlike 32 [19:10] Traveler4: what was the biggest one? [19:10] Joeseph: I haven't seen this before: I've built this particular hardware configuration before and I've been able to run the memory test, so I'm at a loss as to why it won't even load... [19:10] wjm graphic card my compiz was not working [19:11] anyone used arch linux before [19:11] ? [19:11] madjoe: nmap 192.168.1.1 will suffice [19:11] j3rg go to #arch [19:11] That's probably more of a driver problem [19:11] builder_: No idea... I've not used it too much... Just to check new RAM on a laptop I bought online. [19:11] I can't seem to send to that channel I'll try again [19:11] anyone able to help with some grub2 problems? [19:11] wjm still its because of the 64 [19:12] anyone know how to paste in xterm? [19:12] j3rg: I've used arch before, but not for long. [19:12] xtermpaste: middle click [19:12] aka mouse3 [19:12] repo_man: no mouse [19:12] I guess ... [19:12] xtermpaste: insert [19:12] j3rg make an accound on freenode [19:12] I don't have any problems, but then again - I've never bothered to use compiz [19:12] repo_man: where u able to compile pacman [19:12] Traveler4: honestly, been using 64 for quite a while and having no problems at all - id say give it a go, and it can be alot faster than 32 [19:12] j3rg: i don't remember [19:12] repo_man: insert is not working [19:12]
3 player just now , do any of u guys know 1 that will work with linux out the box? [19:13] j3rg: check out #club-ubuntu [19:13] Traveler4ok thanks [19:13] hello [19:13] main: ? [19:13] Joeseph: that's essentially the same thing I"m trying to do here... test the ram for this new build. I'm running 9.04 64 live right now, so clearly the system is functional, but I would like to test the ram for 24 hours to burn in before I deploy the box... [19:13] headache: hi [19:13] oh ok thank repo_man [19:13] xtermpaste: shift+isert [19:13] later [19:13] * over_soul gives up, I'll just risk it I guess [19:13] I've got a problem with pulseaudio [19:13] builder_, http://www.memtest86.com/ [19:13]
hey irc i am gonna buy an mp3 player just now , do any of u know an mp3 player that will work with linux out the box? [19:13] builder_: i think the ubuntu liveCD has memtest on it [19:13] repo_man: open ports are ftp, http, https and pptp... [19:14]
hi btw :D [19:14] if pulseaudio is installed output goes to ati 3450 hdmi [19:14] main: all [19:14] mkquist so you are saying that 64 will boot even faster ?? wow lemme download the new one 10.4 [19:14] main: anything but an apple product or microsoft [19:14] if is not installed it goes to intel IDHT... [19:14] lol 10.4 sounds like mac os x [19:14] Traveler4: Woah, hold it, 10.04 is NOT stable [19:14] main: iRiver; Sansa etc ... [19:14]
thx repo :D [19:14] i didnt say it would boot faster [19:14] I have a dell studio 1535 === lulu is now known as halfie [19:14] Traveler4: i didnt say it would boot faster [19:14] repo_man: yes it does, that's the problem. when I select memtest the screen goes blank, a cursor is present in the top of the screen, and then nothing... I haven't run into this particular situation before... [19:15] builder_, are you ignoring me? [19:15] builder_: did you check your md5 sum before building the liveCD to see if the download wasn't corrupt? [19:15] theadmin how unstable cuz i always put the beta version before the full [19:15]
i was thinking the samsung P3 [19:15] repo_man: yes, the cd checks out [19:15] someone could help me? [19:15] I have no idea [19:15] how to solve [19:15] headache: try #linux [19:16] this is not about ubuntu? [19:16] pepee: yes, your first suggestion (use a newer version) tells me you did really have anything to add to the conversation [19:16] builder_: are you selecting memtest or memtest86? [19:16] thank you all for the help :) love this support channel :) cheers [19:16] headache: if you can't get help here you might as well try it [19:16] builder_, newer versions may support more memory [19:16] repo_man: select memtest from the menu present by the boot loader for the live cd (amd64) I'm running [19:16] and/or newer chips [19:17] wtf [19:17] pepee: thanks for the suggestion, however, it's misinformed. [19:17] theadmin: thank you. Installing the lucid pastebinit package into hardy works dandily! [19:17] ? [19:17] repo_man, I'll try to linux channel [19:17] builder_, why? [19:17] can't write to server without crashing ubuntu, someone had this before? [19:17] builder_: hmm, what else do you remember seeing?

[19:18] pepee: however, I will look at the link you've offered [19:18] man, 9.04 its old for an i7 [19:18] hey [19:19] pepee: perhaps you should consider being less robotic when you handle a case in #ubuntu ? [19:19] what are you talking about? [19:19] hi why 9.10 is slower ??? [19:19] repo_man, go fsck urself [19:19] WOW [19:19] that was uncalled for [19:19] pepee: should I call ops? [19:19] Can anyone help me? I've got drivers installed for my modem, And when I try wvdial, It repeats "NO CARRIER" "ERROR" "attempting redial" [19:19] do it, troll [19:19] Pepee watch your mouth in here [19:19] it's just one of those days I can see ... [19:20] Viral: what did i do wrong? [19:20] frisky in here today [19:20] Not you hehe [19:20] anyway, so no one has run into an issue with running memtest from the boot CD before? it's not as though it hangs the system, however it's hard to tell as it just doesn't seem to do anything. very odd [19:20] i feel like i've provoked it [19:20] builder_: how did you build the cd? [19:20] I don't know , I just came in [19:20] Viral: NO CARRIER means no tone on the line (or deisconnected cable) [19:20] But [19:20] repo_man: wodim on a different box. I've used this disk before though. [19:20] I'm on XP, and it works fine [19:21] builder_: ah ok [19:21] It's just on linux, But it doesn't actually attempt dialing [19:21] builder_: clearly the software isn't made to handle the new hardware you tried it on [19:21] when it says "modem initialized" It instantly starts spamming that, like 3 times a second [19:21] Comes down like a waterfal [19:21] l [19:22] Out_Cold: I did the nmap on my routerm but I can't see an open port 23 (telnet) - only 21, 80, 443, and a port for pptp [19:22] repo_man: I'm reluctant to accept that, but given the absence of any other evidence, I suppose I have to proceed as though that's the case and try a newer release of memtest as suggested by pepee [19:22]
thx repo man :D [19:22]
i love this channel :D [19:22] builder_: what i mean is, perhaps it can handle it, but it wasn't configured to do so [19:22] builder_: don't automatically assume a new version would work (depends how its configured) [19:22] madjoe, might be an issue with router then even though you can do so on MS [19:23] #Zenix new chan for ubuntu buddhist edition come and join for info http://zenix-os.net/ [19:23] builder_: I agree with pepee. Try http://www.memtest.org/ === am4zin is now known as amazin [19:23] repo_man: yes, I see what you are suggesting. I'ver quite curious though, I've I've used this cd with this same hardware configuration (I'm building the machine myself). this is the second such machine, and the first I was able to burn-in using memtest. However, maybe there is something slightly different. I will dig a little deeper and try the memtest suggested by Losha` and pepee... thanks [19:24] is there any other way to adjust cpu frequency scaling than through the widget? it keeps on switching down even though i placed it on max [19:24] Out_Cold: yeah, I'll boot in Windows, but I'm tired of holding my secondary Windows partition just for issues like this one... I don't see an answer why can't I just login to my router via telnet... bummer [19:24] s/I'ver/It's/g [19:24] builder_: this would be an interesting discovery provided you have the time resources to spare [19:24] al-tabq: cnage governor to performance [19:24] When copying a file to a network drive, nautilus crashes? Help would be really appreciated. Thanx in advance. [19:24] al-tabq: change governor to performance [19:24] repo_man: yes, I will log my results. [19:24] madjoe: my router won't allow telnet access. Only ssh or https. Security feature... [19:25] Losha`: I tried SSH connection.. still won't work.. [19:25] Losha`: what port are you connecting to? [19:25] madjoe: did you find the port number? [19:25] madjoe, check router settings... might be that port 443 is opening 23 for windows and not linux. check for remote telnet settings [19:25] erUSUL, did that too, keeps on scaling down [19:26] repo_man: no... but my open ports are 21, 80, 443 and pptp port [19:26] madjoe try -O [19:26] madjoe: I use a non-standard ssh port, to discourage probers. What router is it? [19:26] madjoe: it should tell you the port name beside the port [19:26] hi. i am trying to boot karmic off of usb. i created with the usb utility and can boot off of many computers without issue. i am trying to do it on an HP G71 and when hit ESC to get to the boot menu to select USB it just hangs. i know it may be more of an HP issue, but i have done this with other HPs and didn't know if there is any trick with newer computers. i even noticed that if Windows 7 was put in hibernate then the boot m [19:26] Losha`: that won't do anything [19:26] i'm bothered because of a rumanian... best I can do is leave [19:27] Losha`: Thomson SpeedTouch ST780 [19:27] I am looking to remap my sound ports on the motherboard as I could using the realtek driver on windows === antivirtel`afk is now known as antivirtel [19:27] so I can have 5.1 sound.

[19:34] really weird [19:35] I can't for for the release so I can lol at it >_> [19:35] martines: I can't help you with that part, 'cos I don't run a file browser, 'cos it crashes :-) [19:35] How can I redirect both standard output and error to a file? By default, only standard output goes it seems. [19:35] Losha` : I installed another file browser, same thing [19:35] martines, could be a bad connection. the two commands we listed should help. the one was rsync and the other was tar/ssh [19:35] mac9416: cmd &>file [19:36] llutz, that gets both stdout and stderr? [19:36] mac9416: for bash, yes [19:36] llutz, thanks much. [19:36] A-A-A: fine, just lol at it on #ubuntu+1 where they (maybe) care about it... [19:36] Out_Cold : What is it that they exactly do, just copy a file? [19:36] martines: what Out_Cold said... [19:37] martines, i'm not familiar with llutz's code but mine will compress, ssh and uncompress any file or folders [19:37] martines: you could always use filezilla [19:37] * A-A-A ponders when #ubuntu is getting real " them support" [19:37] Out_Cold: rsync does basically the same, except the compression [19:37] martines, i assume that was.... what llutz's does lol [19:37] llutz: it isn't cmd > file 2>&1 ? [19:38] Losha`: long form, does the same [19:38] * A-A-A suddely realises this is ubuntu we'r talking about and sighs [19:38] Losha`: man bash [19:38] llutz: yeah, it's a looong man page... [19:38] Losha`: man bash search "&>word" [19:39] Anyone here have 5.1 audio working in ubuntu [19:39] well linux sucks anyone so I doubt anyone cares [19:39] * A-A-A ducts [19:39] llutz: interesting, they stole that from csh...

[19:44] I remember alot of problems with sound on flash plugin on 64bit Ubuntu [19:44] Out_Cold : maybe a stupid question, but what does this "tar -zcf – {local_dir} | ssh {remote_user}@{remote.domain} tar -C {/path/to/remote/dir} -zxf -" exactly have to do with the problem? [19:45] i have ubuntu (new user) but i have problem whit the games and windows program...

But it won't be perfect. [19:47] martines, tar -zcf – {local_dir} compresses your directory and outputs to STDOUT or your display, | pipes that info to a new command. ssh {remote_user}@{remote.domain} connects to your laptop and then you untar your files with tar -C {/path/to/remote/dir} -zxf - === victor_ is now known as MasterFX [19:48] martines, you can rearrange the command to work from your laptop instead of your server [19:48] i'm running 10.04 on my laptop now, but my battery icon appears and disappears all the time.... and I have no sound icon .....

[19:53] Hi, I just found a programme on my start menu called Downloader for X. Google suggests its associated with Softonic. There's no deb package for it in adept manager and I really don't remember installing it (I may have had a couple of beers if/when I did?!). The bin file is /usr/bin/nt. Any clues on how I could remove this from the system? Any clues on what it is and how it got there?! [19:53] quebecliberated: it could be a problem with the codec used to encode the video and/or audio streams in the avi. AVI is just a container, not a spec. [19:53] brasero [19:53] so... [19:53] quebecliberated: ive had goodluck with k3b [19:54] k3b? [19:54] quebecliberated: did you create a video project or a data project ?

[19:56] hola [19:56] tehbaut: a partition does not have mbr ... hard disk have [19:56] ola [19:56] quebecliberated: usually, and avi must be converted into mpeg (VOB file) format before it can be burned to a dvd and played in an ordinary dvd player.

I want to put it on my macbook [20:19] skrite: given that it targets atom chips a doubt it [20:20] Purpley: my point is that unless you are providing service to the internet, your machine should not even be accessible from the 'outside'. Doing so is just courting breakins. Consider configuring a firewall of some kind, or even better, put a NAT router between your desktop and the internet... [20:20] kn100 my system does not even mount my bluray drive [20:20] erUSUL, thanks [20:20] seems to be specific to the liteon drive [20:20] Losha`, I have a NAT router [20:20] hello.. can anyone please tell me how to get the headers of kdelibs and Qt and i m using kubuntu9.10 [20:20] Although im on DMZ shouldnt be on there probably [20:21] Hello. I have a computer which serves as a media server. I have a laptop through which I'd like to access this server to move files or even stream files to and from. Both are running Ubuntu 9.10. How is this possible? Can someone please point me in the direction? Thank you. [20:21] norbi905: nfs, ssh/sftp, samba, ftp.... lots of options [20:22] There's no point having a NAT router and then sitting in the DMZ.

[20:23] llutz, mcgvac: Thank you, will do. Is it safe to assume that by default Ubuntu does not come with anything of this sort built in? [20:24] Purpley: the server kernel is oriented towards server workloads. [20:24] Purpley: "just Ubuntu" installs a lot of stuff you don't want to have on a server [20:24] it is in the ubuntu software center [20:24] Purpley: they are the same code, with different packages installed. In principle, you can convert one to the other by adding/removing packages. In practice, doing so is actually a huge hassle, hence: server vs desktop distros... [20:24] norbi905: unfortunately not, at least serverside you have to install some stuff [20:25] Losha`, Can I just use ubuntu home as a personal server with like 3-6 people accessing it at one time or should I go with the server edition [20:26] llutz: Thanks, I managed to connect through ssh from my Android phone to the laptop. Unfortunately file transfer was not allowed. This is the reason I dropped that option, maybe on the desktop it's different. [20:26] that would be fine for a home server [20:26] Purpley: you can use desktop as server just fine [20:26] norbi905: no idea about android, but sftp works fine with ssh [20:26] Purpley: with such a small load, you would be fine either way. If you also want to use it as a desktop, I think it will be easier to use the desktop edition and add services, rather than take the server edition and add a desktop... [20:26] llutz: Thank you. [20:27] Alright [20:28] Purpley: and though you didn't ask, you need to work on your security arrangements... [20:28] anyone know how to get NAUTILUS ELEMENTARY? [20:28] just use ubuntu server and controll it with webmin [20:28] doesnt get much easier then that [20:28] Losha`, What do you mean [20:28] webmin is easier then any x gui for controlling a server [20:29] don't use webmin, it's poorly maintained crap [20:29] anyone know how to get NAUTILUS ELEMENTARY? [20:29] !webmin [20:29] lol [20:29] webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead.

Purpley [20:31] rek, one way to make sure your home folder is safe, could be to make a softlink to the directory you want them to access and change the permissions of just that folder. leaving your home folder realitively safe [20:32] Purpley: that explains it. It did seem odd that someone who knew about NAT routers and DMZ would allow such an attack. But there *are* griefers out there...

[21:13] same tearing problems [21:13] jkd4_: that was in freenode [21:14] #freenode [21:14] soreau would that be stable with karmic? [21:14] omerta: That is the fglrx driver, not the open radeon one [21:14] omerta, thats a common issue.. the free Radeon driver doesnt gimme any tearing. [21:14] AbortD: No [21:14] anyone got a open source release plan closeby? i'm looking for something along the lines of http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/TimeBasedReleasePlan to gather ideas from. thanks [21:14] AbortD: It could blow up your computer and burn down your house [21:14] sara 3495 2730 0 21:14 pts/2 00:00:00 grep --color=auto firefox [21:14] jrib [21:14] i hahaha [21:15] Typos_King: Cant find annything in synaptic.

[21:16] omerta: The open driver is already installed on your system currently but it's not in use because you're using fglrx. and even if it was active, it does not have 3D working by default in karmic [21:16] jrib, I thought computer have their own unique ip addresses [21:16] omerta, what ati is it? [21:17] CMON!!!! [21:17] so that's why we couldn't enable compiz without installing fglrx mmm [21:17] AbortD: its an Atheros AR2425 on an acer aspire one 150D [21:17] pitlimit: no, they must be configured [21:17] ati hd 4890 it is deanus [21:17] !patience | lalalol [21:17] lalalol: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.

So it depends on what you want it for [21:17] lalalol, cairo dock should work [21:17] omerta, yeah, its not supported in 9.10 fully, it is in 10.04 tho [21:18] omerta: Yes.

I want to find the unique ip address of a machine, not of a router [21:19] ok shazbotmcnasty, thx, can you answer the 2nd question too? ill repeat for you :) can i resize the dock's size? [21:19] omerta, none, for me... [21:20] pitlimit: ifconfig [21:20] good [21:20] I have no idea. I believe so though. [21:20] omerta, free driver never has, even when I had a 9800 radeon in 9.04/9.10 [21:20] jrib, I did that ... do I want inet addr? [21:20] I would have to install to check...

It quit (long story) around the time it was configuring packages. [22:12] pacejr: /j #ubuntu+1 [22:12] Anyone know how to see the drives attached to a PCI SATA card? (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816124008) [22:12] Right, basically my problem is, my sessions selection box has disapeared from the bottom of the login screen, and when I login it takes me to a terminal session.. :( [22:13] wad: sudo fdisk -l will list them all [22:13] Tom22: what login manager are you using? === alfred is now known as Guest82113 [22:13] histo the one that comes with ubuntu by default [22:14] Tom22: so when you login is it X with a terminal open? Or do you get kicked otu to a virtual console? [22:14] charnel: you may want to install build-essential and linux-headers-generic and retry the 'make' [22:14] what are script files coded in for linux? [22:14] "Your system is up-to-date" "The package information was last updated 3 days ago." but I have it set to check every day...why is it 3 days old? [22:14] dumont-: most likely c [22:14] nah..

Trying to figure out a way for you to get to the login manager [22:15] Typos_King: I have them installed [22:15] histo i've tried recovery mode, I've tried fixing broken packages etc.. I've tried logging in and starting xserver from root console. nothing works. [22:15] histo this all happend after gnome crashed [22:16] whats the language called to code batch/scripts in linux? [22:16] dumont: it's called bash scripts mostly [22:16] ahh [22:16] right [22:16] thx [22:16] Tom22: yeah try running gnome-control-center in the xterm [22:16] shell script would be a better name [22:16] there's variants on it [22:16] bash is a type of terminal shell [22:16] Tom22: then you can get to the login manager under system. [22:16] yeah, indeed, that's what i was referring to cryptk [22:17] histo, thanks. I did that, and it's not showing the disk attached to the PCI card. I guess I need a driver or something. [22:17] seven_, yep [22:17] charnel: .... what the app for? just wondering there might be another app for it [22:17] histo ok, anything else I need to know before i reboot into linux? :P i'm on my windows partition at the moment [22:17] wad: you shouldn't need a driver. IS the card showing the drives attached? Does the card have a bios [22:17] Typos_King: Its for setting up the blackberry programming environment in ubuntu [22:17] I have noticed that when I group my taskbar windows together, I cannot move them around my taskbar. Has anyone else seen this issue? [22:17] Tom22: yeah let me check somethign else first also what do you mean when gnome crashed? [22:18] hal1: is the item locked, you can check in the right click menu [22:18] hello all! [22:18] i'm trying to network 2 ubuntu computers p2p [22:18] i've opened up shares and chown, chgrp and chmod it wide open, yet I can't copy files to the other computer [22:18] any ideas? [22:19] Tom22: gdmsetup is the app that will let you configure the login manager [22:19] histo i dont know what happend. it was strange. I clicked something, in the right click drop down menu and all my desktop icons disapeared and the system bar's border disapeared so it blended in with the background. I couldn't get my icons back but I could still click on the menus at the top [22:19] histo: I'll check that stuff. [22:19] Tom22: I would try that first gdmsetup should open up a window to configure it. [22:19] sam555: what mount options are you using? [22:19] ActionParsnip: not sure what you mean? [22:20] Tom22: worst case you could delete your .gconf folders but you'd loose all yoru settings. [22:20] ActionParsnip: actually I figured out this issue. Sorry to bother. [22:20] sam555: well, if you are mounting the share you will use some mount options [22:20] the sub folder had no permissions. It wasn't recursive. DOH! [22:20] sam555: np man, you got the gold and thats what counts :) [22:21] histo, I found it with lspci: 03:01.0 RAID bus controller: Silicon Image, Inc. SiI 3124 PCI-X Serial ATA Controller (rev 02) [22:21] I'll reboot and see if I can find a BIOS for it. [22:21] charnel: ever checked for other PIM? [22:21] histo trouble is, I've spent ages configuring it to how I want it, litterally hours. I really dont want to loose all that :( [22:21] ActionParsnip: actually that didn't work :( [22:21] wad: actually i believe fdisk will only show the partitiongs not drives that are empty but let me check [22:22] Tom22: thats why i'd run gdmsetup and see if you can configure the login manager to show the session options etc... [22:22] Tom22: if not someone else here may know how to get you going. [22:22] sam555: look into smbmount and cifs in /etc/fstab you will be able to specify uid and/gid there and get write access etc [22:22] ActionParsnip: no, it isn't locked [22:22] hal1: ok cool [22:22] histo ok thank you for the help man :) I'll come back after I've tried :) [22:22] Tom22: you can run all your apps from that xterm still just typing in the commands putting & after them === hal1 is now known as hal [22:23] Tom22: ex: xchat etc... to get back on here [22:23] Oh Okay :D [22:23] does anyone else group their windows on the taskbar?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.............TIA [22:27] hi tuxuser_ ! :) I like to organise my tasks on the taskbar, but when you I have more than one task "grouped", then I cannot move it [22:27] tuxuser_: do you see this too? [22:28] c [22:28] How do I find the maintainer of a package? [22:28] hiya [22:28] histo: packages.ubuntu.com I believe shows that info [22:29] histo: check in synaptic or using apt-cache.. I think it's listed somewhere [22:29] hal: how do you mean by "move" ? can't see no such option even on sigle task ? (or, it's there but it moves the window) [22:29] histo: usually it shows in the man page for the package :) [22:29] my panels in xubuntu have disappeared, what cmd shall I use? xfce4-panel?

[22:30] Typos_King: IdleOne its a package that's broken and no maintainer line on showpkg you can't install it right now [22:30] isn't that debian? :-) [22:31] histo: which package is it? [22:31] what do you guys use for subtitle sync? [22:31] Mixxit: ubuntu is debian based [22:31] 416mb! [22:31] i'm on 32kbps!

[22:32] no i mean the size of fluxbox is 10.4mb [22:32] Typos_King: I think Mixxit meant the size of the fluxbox package [22:32] :-) [22:32] histo, yeah, when I boot, I can enter a RAID config tool. Thing is, I'm going to use md, not their firmware thing. I just need the disk to be visible to the OS underneath. I can see the SATA controller card with lspci, but I don't know how to get to the drives on it, to construct my md raid. God any ideas for me? [22:32] how can i see if there are viruses on my ubuntu install and clear them? [22:32] ohh heh [22:33] !av [22:33] A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [22:33] yes, the reason i am asking, is because i try to use itunes in a virtual machine but i can making run it [22:33] nicole, there aren't any virii on your Ubuntu box. It's not Windows. [22:33] nicole: clamav is antivirus but you don't really need it for ubuntu [22:33] nicole: viruses for linux/ubuntu are .. non-existant afaik.. there are other bad stuff though.. root kits and such.. [22:34] !info rkhunter | nicole [22:34] nicole: no viruses for ubuntu; however, if you suspect you have infected windows file on your pc, have a look at clamav, or, bettter yet, scan your home dir via net with a win pc [22:34] nicole: rkhunter (source: rkhunter): rootkit, backdoor, sniffer and exploit scanner. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.4-5 (karmic), package size 264 kB, installed size 948 kB [22:34] nicole there are several antivirus you can use, but the likelyhood of getting one at this moment in time, is next to 0 [22:34] wad: if fdisk can't see them I have no idea perhaps someone else here may know [22:34] tuxuser_: you should simply be able to drag and drop any task around the taskbar [22:35] tuxuser_: (with this option disabled) [22:35] you can run chkrootkit (or something) to find rootkits [22:35] #xubuntu [22:36] hal: in trying to help you I've learned something... but I can see in fact it doesn't move the grouped windows...

It seems like a bug to me [22:37] hi guys. can anyone suggest a good media player,please. I use rhythmbox to play tunes from my ipod here @ hork, but I'm really starting to dislike it & looking for an alternative [22:38] nowimproved: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html [22:38] hal: or a missing feature... in fact the thing seems to work... it just doesn't land the window in the task bar when you release the mouse button.

[22:39] ok [22:39] histo, okay, thanks for the ideas! Googling hints that there is a driver called sata_sil24 that would make it work.

[22:40] Slart: I use the ipod to sort throug hmy music; load some tunes on & delete what I dont' like & rate/score what I do like [22:40] ChogyDan, My camera works everywhere, its the ps3 eye [22:41] histo i'm back. Right, gdmsetup doesn't give the option about settings, only which user logs in by default. I couldn't come on here because xterm doesn't support networking :( I dont know what to try now [22:41] ChogyDan, even though it shows double on version 10.0.45.2.

[22:43] how can i create the default panel at the bottom of the screen?

[22:49] is there a way to make the terminal show a progress percentage for large cp commands? I am trying to copy my movies to my external USB for a backup. I have about 170GB worth. I am using the -v tag, but it just shows the files it is transferring. I'd like to see a eprcentage and possibly speed. [22:49] I have a macppc laptop. When it boots I see no POST info screen so I don't know how to get to the BIOS to make it boot from CDROM so I can install linux [22:49] tuxuser_: you also cannot move a group to a different workspace [22:49] tuxuser_: nmap will allow me to see that port 135 is open, how do I scan to see which DCOM services are running? does nmap have a script for this?

I am PC guy mostly so I have no clue [22:50] My GNOME seems to have vanished, so has my menu to choose what session to use, instead it puts me onto XTERM. Can anyone help? [22:50] Jon-: I'm reviewing nmap right now... I know it's got the -O feature (OS fingerprinting), looking for service fingerprinting thing... [22:50] hal: yes, that's what I meant. That makes it feel like an incomplete feature... [22:51] tuxuser_: That is unrelated. I have scanned a given host and found an open port 135, the DCOM service control manager. I am looking for a tool to see which DCOM services are running through this port. [22:51] ok, so I have installed WinXP and now only WinXP is a choice to boot, so I booted the LiveCD to reinstall GRUB2, how do I do this?

Isn't nmap service detection more to see WHAT is on that port? I already know that, I need something that can specifically analyse DCOM port to see which DCOM services are running. epdump for DOS was similar, but I think it only works locally and no ubuntu port? [22:56] tuxuser: there's an nmap-frontend and/or a kde frontend for it too as KNmap [22:56] Typos_King: there were errors, it couldn't stat 'hd0' [22:56] tuxuser: zenmap is the gui version of nmap [22:56] dumsdads: what's the 1st harddrive? sda? hda?

HTH [23:37] of course [23:37] just stick in the usb [23:37] Guest92792: yes [23:37] If that's possible then i could mount a virusscanner to scan ^^ [23:37] mount the USB and drag n' drop... [23:37] Guest92792: you just plug in the usb stick [23:38] Guest92792: if you know where the file is and what it's, yes, but most likely the virus already has a backup and who knows where they may be [23:38] Guest92792: yes then you can use clamav to scan the stick [23:38] histo: that fixed it. Thanks so much :) [23:38] alreayd did taht but nothign happened =X [23:38] komies: np [23:38] Guest92792: or even what names they'd be [23:38] wai for it jump up [23:38] um..

[23:40] Guest92792: You want to boot a distro off of the usb then scan the local drive right? [23:41] +I don't have a ubuntu ditro either =X [23:41] so I need to delete a large number of files. 80 or so gigs and I am wondering is there any reason why I wouldn't just select them all and delete?

[23:42] Guest92792: there you go check the pm from ubottu [23:42] so a usb mount would be handy [23:42] :P [23:42] alright [23:43] Guest92792: or you can run linux then you won't get viruses [23:43] !virus | Guest92792 [23:43] Guest92792: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [23:44] GSwindle76: /var/log/auth.log [23:44] can someone tell me how to mount exFat in ubuntu?
