| Typos_King | luis__ why you need it? is the default text files handler on clicks | 00:34 |
| luis__ | Typos_King: because I got a script of greasemonkey I need to edit | 00:35 |
| izmanromli | faron: if you need something to play flashy things | 00:35 |
| dabukalam | Losha: no success, not that I expected there to be any... what's in your mysqld folder? are you running a lamp server? | 00:35 |

| rixxy | is it possible to set up a secondary hard disk to automatically mount at startup? | 00:35 |
| faron | yes thats what I want | 00:35 |

I run an apache server on the same machine to have web access to the program data, but there's a gui also if you prefer. Also, configuring a remote control uses icrc and is also a nightmare... | 00:41 |

| Losha | keyboardtalk: look in synaptic and see if you can downgrade gcc to 4.4.1-4ubuntu8 is probably the easiest way to go... | 00:47 |

| faron | I gonna go test | 00:50 |

| faron | Ahhhh I see ubutom2 thanks | 01:14 |
| dabukalam | faron: yeah why? | 01:14 |
| faron | I can't darnit ! | 01:14 |
| sine` | Losha: yea sure. what i mean is i just want to learn my way around doing things in the terminal, and if it has a terminal way of doing it which they all do i assume i want to learn that way. | 01:14 |
| faron | good for you though | 01:14 |
| faron | ADOBE SUCKS !!!!!!!!! | 01:15 |
| faron | I HATE those guys ! heh heh | 01:15 |
| sine` | I used to have gentoo on my xbox and i would ssh with putty. it was remote command line and i used to practise installing and doing stuff, i thought that was fun and it helps you learn about the os | 01:15 |
| dabukalam | faron: hehe, keep at it. I've been at this for 17 hours. check the logs if you don't believe me | 01:15 |
| haavaros | How the heck do I change owner of a drive? I've tried chown, i get no error msg, but its still owned by root | 01:15 |
| faron | Ohhhh trust me I believe you I've been at it for weeks really | 01:16 |

| dabukalam | yeah far | 01:16 |
| lsj85 | quick question guys i have ubuntu 9.10 and i was wondering if i can get a virus through virtual box | 01:16 |
| Losha | sine`: I applaud your efforts to learn the cli, you don't really know linux until you're comfortable with it, but on this occasion, it's appropriate to use the gui, since it's unclear what the alternative should be. Gnome doesn't always document where it puts things... | 01:16 |
| faron | you got swfdec by any chance ? | 01:16 |
| digitalfiz | yahoo wtf? what does he need to know about celebrities that can help him with ubunt :P | 01:17 |
| lsj85 | i run xp pro in virtual | 01:17 |
| teage | virus on vb stays on vb | 01:17 |
| digitalfiz | ubuntu even | 01:17 |
| lsj85 | ok thx | 01:17 |
| dabukalam | lsj85: you can get a virus on the guest, not the host | 01:17 |
| haavaros | When chown doesn't work, what do I do? I've googled my eyes out, nothing works | 01:17 |
| rw | lsj85: your virtualbox instance could get a virus. Assuming you don't tell Virtualbox to share your actual computer's directories with the guest, it can't get out to the host. | 01:17 |
| faron | "digitalfiz" now there's a cool name ! | 01:17 |
| Losha | digitalfiz: :-) | 01:17 |
| greezmunkey | lsj85: Running WinXP or something, sure you could (in the XP session) | 01:17 |
| solid_liq | haavaros, run it as root? ;) | 01:17 |
| dabukalam | lsj85: ever try double-clicking an exe file in ubuntu? :P | 01:17 |
| Anvoid | when ever i run diablo under wine and switch to different workspace and back again, sometimes my diablo (game) disappears but the process is still there. how do i bring that window back up? | 01:17 |
| teage | there is no known virus for linux unix alike | 01:17 |
| rw | haavaros: What type of filesystem is it using? FAT32, NTFS, EXT3/4/5, etc? | 01:18 |
| anubis | is there a command i can type in console ti change work space? | 01:18 |
| haavaros | solid_liq: I've sudo'ed it | 01:18 |
| lsj85 | yeah i have | 01:18 |
| greezmunkey | lsj85: It would be contained within the virtual XP though... | 01:18 |
| digitalfiz | Anvoid, try alt+tabbing to it | 01:18 |
| dabukalam | faron: uh... what is swfdec? | 01:18 |
| dabukalam | !swfdec | 01:18 |
| lsj85 | doesnt quit work | 01:18 |
| dabukalam | !info swfdec | 01:18 |
| ubottu | Package swfdec does not exist in karmic | 01:18 |
| faron | diablo I think might be goin ta heck he he | 01:18 |
| rw | 2/3/4 ** | 01:18 |
| solid_liq | teage, you mean, no known virus that still works. The holes that allowed some to work were all patched. | 01:18 |
| Anvoid | digitalfiz: yeah, i tried taht but it doesn't show | 01:18 |
| faron | it's a flash alternative | 01:18 |
| Losha | faron: isn't a bad nick. Sounds kinda classical.. | 01:18 |
| faron | adobe alternative | 01:18 |
| dabukalam | faron: why not use flash? | 01:18 |
| faron | my middle name | 01:19 |
| cmpsalvestrini | turbowei: desktop icons are found under apps/nautilus | 01:19 |
| lsj85 | so i shouldnt worry then install a virus scanner in my virtual and I'm good to go | 01:19 |
| teage | solid_liq- from what i have read, Never a known virus, just scripts that allow some unwanted activities | 01:19 |
| sine` | heh | 01:19 |
| faron | named after faron young the counrty music star although I'm a "Deadhead" heh heh | 01:19 |
| dabukalam | lsj85: good to go for a couple of weeks | 01:19 |
| mikelifeguard | How can I tell if a file usese CRLF or LF? | 01:19 |
| solid_liq | lsj85, your linux OS's don't need antivirus | 01:19 |
| dabukalam | lsj85: but it's windows, so you're always screwed in the end | 01:19 |
| digitalfiz | digitalfiz is derived from Fiz which was shortened from Fizucked-Up in my starcraft days :P | 01:19 |
| greezmunkey | lsj85: create a backup of the virtual machine, if you do contract a virus, blow it away, and replace it with a fresh copy! | 01:19 |
| solid_liq | mikelifeguard, use a hex editor | 01:20 |
| mikelifeguard | solid_liq: like what? | 01:20 |
| faron | adobe no good on my machinedabukalam | 01:20 |
| dabukalam | greezmunkey: that's a good idea :) | 01:20 |
| teage | solid_liq- from the Ubuntu bible i have gained through torrents | 01:20 |
| lsj85 | what about if the xp is cracked by another user can they gain access to my ubuntu box through the virtual | 01:20 |
| haavaros | solid_liq: Now I tried again, and it worked ... must've mistyped something ... /solved :) | 01:20 |
| meanburrito920_ | mikelifeguard: hexdump | 01:20 |
| greezmunkey | dabukalam: that's what I'm here for... :) | 01:20 |
| Losha | mikelifeguard: you can od -c <file> and look for \r\n sequences.... | 01:20 |
| dabukalam | faron: why? what makes your machine so different from everyone elses? | 01:20 |
| solid_liq | mikelifeguard, hexedit, hexer, hexcurse, etc | 01:20 |
| teage | i believe it was wileys | 01:20 |
| faron | I tried greasmonkey good program but I don't know how to write scripts just yet | 01:20 |

| greezmunkey | bah | 01:21 |
| faron | what's that munky doin ?? | 01:21 |
| dabukalam | faron: good luck dude | 01:21 |
| solid_liq | mikelifeguard, if you want to convert the files, you can use unix2dos and dos2unix | 01:22 |
| dabukalam | faron: my problem's solved, so i can finally sleep (it's 3:30 am) | 01:22 |
| meanburrito920_ | mikelifeguard: the easiest solution is use the file command | 01:22 |
| meanburrito920_ | mikelifeguard: $ file something.txt | 01:22 |
| faron | wish I knew how to write scripts so's I could use greasemonkey & watch my fave late night dude ! | 01:22 |

| faron | well,I gonna go try somethin else | 01:23 |
| rw | meanburrito920_: ah, okay | 01:23 |
| mikelifeguard | meanburrito920_: I was doing that, but it says useless things like "ASCII C++ program text" | 01:23 |
| Losha | meanburrito920_: wins the prize for the best solution... | 01:23 |
| mikelifeguard | which is a lie *and* doesn't have the info I want | 01:23 |
| lsj85 | has anyone tried hackthissite.org | 01:24 |

| austin_ | any body now of good beryl themes | 01:24 |
| meanburrito920_ | mikelifeguard: I just checked the manpage and I was correct. it will tell you if there is CRLF | 01:25 |
| mikelifeguard | meanburrito920_: ah, great! thank you | 01:25 |
| teage | isnt beryl just an out dated form of compiz? | 01:25 |
| Tru7h | I'm installing Ubuntu 9.10, booted from the live CD and am running the installer, but the partitioner says "this computer has no other operating systems on it" even though Windows 7 is installed. How can I make it detect Windows? | 01:25 |
| austin_ | no beryl is way better than compiz u got it the other way around | 01:25 |
| anubis | what window manager does current distro use is it compiz? | 01:26 |
| teage | austin, really? i will look that up. whats so much better about it? | 01:26 |
| solid_liq | mikelifeguard, yeah, file works that way for me too... I just checked | 01:26 |
| Losha | anubis: er, gnome.... | 01:26 |
| ChogyDan | teage: I thought the same as you, that compiz and beryl combined to form compiz-fusion, or just compiz | 01:26 |
| digitalfiz | anubis, ubuntu uses gnome as the window manager and compiz and a compositor or whatever its called | 01:26 |
| austin_ | well berl is just a windows deceration i use both compiz and beryl | 01:26 |
| shazbotmcnasty | I use AWESOME AND AWESOME | 01:27 |
| teage | ChogyDan- yes that is what i thought | 01:27 |
| shazbotmcnasty | ah drats, I forgot awesome was actually a wm | 01:27 |
| digitalfiz | compiz and beryl are the same | 01:27 |
| shazbotmcnasty | I don't use awesome | 01:27 |
| greezmunkey | anubis: I think it goes this way, window manager is X, gnome make X look like something you want to use, and compiz completes that with more eye candy. Is that about right? | 01:27 |
| anubis | digitalfiz, well i need to access compiz preferences and gnome-compiz-preferences is not a command | 01:27 |
| austin_ | not rele look up emrald themes | 01:28 |
| lsj85 | ok guys thx for your help | 01:28 |

| izmanromli | nathanbdot: u're welcome | 01:28 |
| meanburrito920_ | greezmunkey: not exactly. X just draws shapes on the screen. it doesnt know what a window is | 01:28 |
| Losha | shazbotmcnasty: try and use your powers for good instead of evil, ok? | 01:28 |
| anubis | greezmunkey, i guess so its a bit confusing :D i need to set certain window behaviour and forums are saying use compiz prefs i cant find em | 01:28 |

| Miyavix3 | Is there a way to use remote desktop viewer to control another desktop on a different network. Providing they give me permission, of course. | 01:41 |
| Airris | but the upgrade process for that seems problematic | 01:41 |
| Airris | since a lot of ubuntu stuff uses GTK it's not like i can just remove the old version then go install the new one | 01:41 |

| * Airris is still a little twerked at the Mesa3D guys, the support for installing it on windows or linux is extremely lacking | 01:51 | |
| anubis | bastid_raZor, lucky search i say ! .. i got loads of different stuff about devilspie and compiz :( been reading about it last hour | 01:51 |
| Airris | from source i mean | 01:51 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | Weird, so it's non-essential, because I think my router is blocking the download of it | 01:51 |
| teage | has anyone else had problems with pidgin lately?, mine exits on its own here lately. | 01:52 |

| bastid_raZor | faryshta: sudo chown newowner folder | 01:53 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | Well...then I hate this linksys router | 01:53 |
| bastid_raZor | anubis: you've never seen Karate Kid? | 01:53 |
| Losha | [Adam|Miner]_: some kind of porn filter on your router or your ISP? | 01:54 |
| Losha | [Adam|Miner]_: which linksys model? | 01:54 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | My father won't admit to it, but I think it has a URL sniffer of some sort | 01:54 |
| anubis | bastid_raZor, yes i did but in german | 01:54 |
| nantanapibul55 | how to make load flash 65 bit addicting game youtube mozilla ?? | 01:54 |
| Systech | this i gotta hear | 01:54 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | not sure the model, but it is a N router | 01:54 |
| Systech | oops | 01:54 |
| Systech | look see | 01:54 |
| bastid_raZor | anubis: oh.. daniel-san was called grasshopper at one point.. in the english version. | 01:55 |
| Systech | he aint no grasshopper anymore | 01:55 |
| Losha | [Adam|Miner]_: sort of doesn't matter if you don't have control of it. I was going to suggest changing the router firmware... | 01:55 |
| teage | you have to modprobe it [Adam|Miner] | 01:55 |
| bastid_raZor | Systech: and neither will anubis be after a week or so. :) | 01:55 |
| Systech | hehe | 01:55 |
| teage | i have a linksys wireless N router "rt2800" driver | 01:56 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | What's so funny is nobody in our house includes themselves in those activities, but he insits on blocking it | 01:56 |
| teage | you have to modprobe the currently installed driver for it to work [Adam|Miner] | 01:56 |
| Systech | [Adam|Miner]_, whos he | 01:56 |
| teage | blacklist the thing | 01:56 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Losha, I'am back, anyway thanks | 01:57 |
| rw | teage: modprobe and blacklisting have nothing to do with routers. | 01:57 |
| Losha | rafaelsoaresbr: sorry I couldn't help... | 01:57 |
| teage | it does too rw | 01:57 |
| rw | teage: and rt2800 is a wireless card, not a router | 01:57 |
| rw | teage: no, it doesn't. | 01:57 |
| Systech | ty | 01:57 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | Usually he can work with me on this stuff, be he became totalarian once he replaced my router with his, he's even using MAC filtering so my ubuntu laptop can't get online, so I have to use a network bridge on this laptop | 01:58 |
| Losha | teage: it does? Please explain how... | 01:58 |
| teage | as i have said, i have a linksys wireless N router and have had to black list my currently installed driver | 01:58 |
| teage | oh | 01:58 |
| teage | ok | 01:58 |
| Systech | [Adam|Miner]_, sounds like a mess | 01:58 |
| teage | i am so wrong ;( | 01:58 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | It is :D | 01:58 |
| Systech | teage, it happens | 01:58 |
| Airris | parents that actually know how to do networking stuff are dangerous that way | 01:59 |
| Systech | ur cut off. | 01:59 |
| Losha | [Adam|Miner]_: but think of the technical know-how you're acquiring as you work around him... | 01:59 |
| Systech | and they have a right todo that | 01:59 |

| z0mb1e_kgd | Hi. Got alpha ubuntu 10.04 installed, then updated all packages - the system crashes 3 seconds after startup, the screen turns black and after that there is no hd activity. any ideas how to fix this? | 02:00 |

| Airris | actually you know a more effective method wouldn't be to block, but log what they're up to | 02:01 |
| [Adam|Miner]_ | I don't do it, but he seems like he just wants to exercise his control over me. On the old router, I was the admin and openly shared the passwords with him, but he forgot it and then claimed I chjanged it XD | 02:01 |
| Airris | and then have incredibly awkward conversations with the kids about what they watched last night | 02:01 |
| shamata | selam millet | 02:01 |
| Systech | Airris, il better that.. teach them, why they dont wana go there | 02:01 |
| rw | Airris, [Adam|Miner]_, Systech: Now that we've established this isn't an Ubuntu issue, it might be best to take your discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 02:01 |

| sab_ | i m new in linux | 02:01 |
| Systech | rw, is this just ubuntu support | 02:02 |
| rw | Systech: yep | 02:02 |
| Losha | sab_: you want the source code? Or you want to configure it? | 02:02 |

| anubis | bastid_raZor, haha thanks sorry only just seen ur post | 02:03 |
| anubis | bastid_raZor, that "first hit google" dont work | 02:03 |
| sab_ | ok let me try then, i will let you know the result | 02:03 |
| rw | sab_: per-user configuration is in the .ssh folder in your home directory. If you're looking for it in the File Manager, you'd need to press Ctrl-H to show hidden files first. | 02:03 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | I have never liked pidgin/empathy, my connection has failed without quiting empathy. when I tried to reconnect I got: "Name already in use". | 02:03 |

| brian_ | I lost all permissions to mount anything usb, and nothing will let me change it | 02:04 |
| Airris | rafaelsoaresbr, that's often an IRC issue independent of what client you're using, although some clients are more prone to it | 02:04 |
| faryshta | bastid_raZor, THANK YOU! | 02:04 |
| bastid_raZor | faryshta: good luck | 02:04 |
| Losha | rafaelsoaresbr: many people like xchat... | 02:04 |
| faryshta | It worked, thanks and have a nice day. | 02:05 |
| bastid_raZor | anubis: i think it was back in 8.10 that i had this working.. let me dig a little more and see.. i don't think devilspie is required.. it is just a compiz setting that allows it. | 02:05 |
| Systech | rw, how secure is ubuntu | 02:06 |
| VoidByte | Systech: as secure as you make it. | 02:06 |
| federico | lo logré! | 02:06 |
| sab_ | i was trying but its giving me this ....bash: /home/sab/.ssh: is a directory | 02:06 |
| Systech | fair enough | 02:06 |
| federico | sorry | 02:07 |
| bastid_raZor | anubis: are you having devilspie installation issues or are you just not finding the correct howto to set it up for you needs? | 02:07 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Airris, But some clients automatically do a "/msg nickserv identify ..." | 02:07 |
| Airris | Systech, to add to what void say, even out of the box it's typically decently secure, people's standards of security vary | 02:07 |
| Losha | sab_: /home/sab/.ssh *is* a directory. When you're ready to tell us what you're trying to do, we'll be here... | 02:07 |
| meanburrito920_ | what do you guys use as a indexed search program? I've been really unsatisfied by beagle, it doesn't seem to index content | 02:07 |
| Systech | Airris, ty for the input.. im running a live disk. always | 02:07 |
| bastid_raZor | anubis: http://geniushackers.com/blog/2008/04/02/linux-terminal-as-the-desktop-background/ | 02:07 |
| rw | Systech: be more specific? what do you mean by "secure"? | 02:08 |
| Systech | ok ty.. how hackabe is the os | 02:08 |
| sab_ | Losha: I am sorry,i am new in linux | 02:09 |
| bastid_raZor | anubis: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/05/ubuntu-embed-terminal-into-you-desktop.html this one does not require devilspie.. it uses compiz tweaks. | 02:09 |
| sab_ | thats why know nothing | 02:09 |
| Losha | Systech: it's a huge subject. Basically, the more open ports you have, the more vulnerable... | 02:09 |
| Systech | fair enough | 02:10 |
| Losha | sab_: just tell us what you want to do... | 02:10 |
| sab_ | well, i would like to run ssh and sshd | 02:10 |
| VoidByte | Systech: keep your system up todate on security patches. If you don't then it isn't secure. | 02:10 |
| sab_ | i mean configure and run | 02:10 |
| Losha | Systech: I like to run behind a NAT router and allow access only via ssh, on a non-standard port, using keyed access... | 02:10 |
| anubis | bastid_raZor, sorry was reading some stuff .. basically devilspie did not allow me to change to the different view port but someone just adviced me in the compiz channel to change some settings im just about to try it out | 02:10 |
| sab_ | i already installed openssh by using synaptic | 02:10 |
| Systech | VoidByte, as i said its a 9.10 live cd | 02:10 |
| Losha | sab_: start by installing openssh-server, sudo apt-get install openssh-server... | 02:11 |
| Systech | i lookd in network tools. very few things going on | 02:11 |
| anubis | bastid_raZor, i will have a look at the compiz tweak as well | 02:11 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Losha, xchat is good, only we need to do is to configure it. | 02:11 |
| sab_ | yes i already did it | 02:11 |
| bastid_raZor | anubis: the second url i gave you is the way i went about it. good luck | 02:11 |
| anubis | bastid_raZor, thank you ill give it a try | 02:11 |
| Systech | 631-631-68-5353-54017 | 02:12 |
| Losha | rafaelsoaresbr: yes, I find this helps: http://t0x.in/xchat.html | 02:12 |
| Losha | sab_: can you connect to it? | 02:12 |
| sab_ | i dont know how to connect | 02:12 |
| Losha | sab_: open a terminal, type: ssh localhost | 02:13 |

| Airris | hey I had an odd question, a couple times I've heard it said that you really shouldn't 'sudo make install' | 02:13 |
| Joker_-_ | is it possible to use Ubuntu Netbook Remix "Theme" on a "normal" ubuntu install (gnome)? | 02:14 |
| Airris | is that in anyway right? | 02:14 |
| Airris | most installs don't work if i don't sudo it | 02:14 |
| sab_ | yes i did it | 02:14 |
| bastid_raZor | Airris: sudo checkinstall is the new way to go | 02:14 |
| Airris | checkinstall? | 02:14 |
| Joker_-_ | sab_: are you replying to me? | 02:14 |
| bastid_raZor | Airris: yes, it allows you to uninstall self-compiled programs via apt-get or synaptic | 02:15 |
| rw | ubottu: checkinstall | Airris | 02:15 |
| Losha | Airris: you usually don't have much choice about that, but it's true that if someone plants a bad command there, it could mess you up. You're supposed to check the Makefil first, but no-one ever does... | 02:15 |
| ubottu | Airris: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 02:15 |
| sab_ | Joker I am replying to losha | 02:15 |
| Joker_-_ | ok | 02:15 |
| Losha | sab_: you need to prefix my nick when you type a message, or no-one will know who you were talking to... | 02:15 |
| rw | ubottu: tab | sab_ | 02:15 |
| ubottu | sab_: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 02:15 |
| Airris | bastid_raZor, ubottu : ohhh, this could be cool to use | 02:15 |
| Airris | Losha, well the makefiles can sometimes be HUGE which doesn't help either | 02:16 |
| Losha | sab_: ok, so you just used the ssh client to connect to the ssh server on the same machine. What would you like to do next? | 02:16 |
| Joker_-_ | So, anyone know if it is possible to use Ubuntu Netbook Remix "Theme" on a "normal" ubuntu install, trough some fake package or something? | 02:16 |
| Losha | Airris: well, that's true of all software. The best defense is to stick to reputable sources for things you install... | 02:17 |
| Losha | Airris: or anything you run as root... | 02:17 |
| Airris | Yea | 02:17 |

| botux | i have a question about upgrading ubuntu 8.10 to 9.10 | 02:18 |
| Losha | sab_: come back if you have more questions... | 02:18 |
| sab_ | Losha: now like to run sshd | 02:18 |
| bastid_raZor | botux: the only way to upgrade that way would be to upgrade to 9.04 then to 9.10 | 02:18 |
| rw | ubottu: upgrade | botux | 02:18 |
| ubottu | botux: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 02:18 |
| botux | ok thats what i thought | 02:19 |
| Losha | sab_: sshd is automatically running on your machine when you installed it. That's what you connected to when you typed ssh localhost... | 02:19 |
| Losha | botux: 2 upgrades is really painful. Most people would install 9.10 from scratch. Or wait a couple of months and then install the new 10.04 | 02:20 |
| botux | is there any major advatge to installing from a cd rather than upgrading to 9.04 then 9.10? | 02:20 |
| Neezer | If I delete my 9.10 partition will that kill grub? I have 10.04 on a different partition. I'm not even sure if grub is on the partition that 9.10 is on. | 02:20 |
| digitalfiz | is there a music app better then songbird and less laggy that can handle 13,000+ tracks? | 02:20 |
| rw | Neezer: do you have a separate /boot partition? | 02:20 |
| sab_ | Losha, can you plz tell me what is /etc directory and /var and /usr directory | 02:20 |
| bastid_raZor | botux: honestly, i don't do upgrades.. i back up stuff then do fresh installs | 02:20 |
| Airris | what the heck... eh wait i'll google this first before bothering anyone with it | 02:20 |
| bastid_raZor | !filesystem | sab_ | 02:21 |
| ubottu | sab_: An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview see also: man hier | 02:21 |
| Neezer | rw, I don't think so...I do have a separate /home for 9.10 that has all my music and stuff on it...I'll probably just delete the config files on that partition. I'm looking to just go full time 10.04 | 02:21 |
| Losha | sab_: take a look at http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/sect_03_01.html | 02:21 |
| Losha | sab_: also, google for "ubuntu beginners guide" and you will find reading material for months... | 02:22 |
| botux | i would do that but i finally got samsba working and i dont know if i can get it wokrking right again if i do a fresh install | 02:22 |
| rw | Neezer: I'd recommend copying anything you want saving to that /home, then reinstalling 10.04, using manual partitioning to remove the existing non-/home partitions. It'll reinstall GRUB during install. | 02:23 |
| Airris | Ok... configure works then i try and make glib and it spits out 'can't read stuff/glib-2.22.0/glib/libglib-2.0.la: No such file or directory | 02:23 |
| Airris | ' | 02:23 |
| rw | and backup before you do it, as usual ;) | 02:23 |
| Losha | botux: all the samba config is in /etc/samba. Just save the directory and restore it after the install and with a bit of luck, it will all just work like it did before. In fact, back up the entire /etc and 99% of your config will be saved... | 02:24 |
| sab_ | Losha, thank you,can you please tell me how to install hadoop and run it | 02:24 |
| Airris | something's gone wrong if the package is trying to say it can't find a dependency that's one of it's own components | 02:24 |
| Neezer | rw, great...thanks. I am planning on doing a fresh install of 10.04 when it is released anyways. will do...I already have all the stuff backed up on my server anyways. | 02:24 |
| botux | i do have another question though i have a wifi printer now on my network is it pretty easy to get it working | 02:24 |
| botux | ok cool ill do that then | 02:24 |
| Losha | sab_: sorry, I've never used hadoop. Perhaps someone else knows. You can repeat your question at 15 minute intervals until someone responds (or you get tired of waiting)... | 02:25 |
| sab_ | can you please tell me how to install hadoop and run it | 02:26 |
| Airris | maybe if i do some makefile editting *winces* | 02:26 |
| Airris | hmm | 02:26 |
| sab_ | Losha, is there any channel for hadoop? | 02:26 |

| sab_ | Losha, irc chanel | 02:26 |
| Neezer | Is there a way to tell if there is room for two hard drives in my laptop without opening it up? | 02:26 |
| bastid_raZor | Neezer: that is extremely doubtful. space is limited | 02:27 |
| Airris | oh. bugger me. I forgot : directories with spaces on unix file systems are a bad idea right? | 02:27 |
| Neezer | bastic_raZor, thanks....I figured as much....I was just thinking it would be great to have an SSD for the OS and programs, then a big drive for storage. | 02:28 |
| Neezer | Airris, it can be a pain in the rear, but it is doable. | 02:28 |
| bastid_raZor | Airris: not really, just quote them or escape with \ .. like My\ Directory\ has\ spaces | 02:28 |
| Neezer | Airris, you end up having to use "" a lot and the \ | 02:28 |
| Airris | well i think the makefile itself didn't anticipate the directory path having a space | 02:28 |
| Airris | I know how to deal with it manually | 02:29 |
| Losha | sab_: I don't think there's an IRC channel, but I found this on google: http://hadoop.apache.org/common/mailing_lists.html | 02:29 |
| bastid_raZor | Neezer: usb drive is probably the solution | 02:29 |

| aetaric | coachj: sudo chmod -R 777 /path/to/the/files/you/want | 02:37 |
| sab_ | can any one please tell me whats is the problem | 02:37 |
| Out_Cold | aetaric, that won't work for vfat drives | 02:37 |
| rw | !find hadoop | 02:37 |
| ubottu | File hadoop found in w3af-console | 02:37 |
| dewman | Out_Cold, O....Ok.... I follow you now... trying to install some .py scripts for a plugin...but now that makes perfect sense. | 02:37 |
| aetaric | oh, true | 02:37 |
| stinsons1839 | Hey, whats the best channel for ubuntu MID related questions | 02:37 |
| hotxboy | what pdf app works best on ubuntu? | 02:37 |
| rw | sab_: the package name you gave isn't in the repositories | 02:37 |
| Mischanix | Well, I know that the iPod firmware is based off a linux kernel, so yes, that makes sense--what doesn't make sense is why Windows wouldn't be able to get an IP address from the Ubuntu machine, which it fails to do | 02:38 |
| Out_Cold | hotxboy, open a terminal and type apt-cache search pdf and try one out | 02:38 |
| coachj | raetaric:ill ty it | 02:38 |
| Mischanix | and which it was doing fine before. | 02:38 |
| sab_ | rw, how can i fix it | 02:38 |
| metbsd | my wireless connection disconnect and reconnect every other seconds,it makes me headache, what should i do???? | 02:38 |
| Airris | Mischanix, for one, Window's networks are finicky; additionally, you have to set ubuntu up rather specifically to get the machine to show up on a windows network | 02:39 |
| Airris | so there's a lot of ways it could have been working before and not now, etc | 02:39 |
| Mischanix | It's a Linux network I'm trying to connect the Windows laptop to :/ | 02:39 |
| Airris | you have Samba installed i hope? | 02:39 |
| Airris | oh... | 02:39 |
| hotxboy | out_cold: what app u r using now? | 02:39 |
| Airris | Good luck with that -_- | 02:39 |
| rw | hotxboy: the default Ubuntu PDF reader, evince, tends to work fine for me. | 02:40 |
| aetaric | </3 Active Directory | 02:40 |
| Mischanix | Hah, and like I said, it worked fine before. And heck, there are intermittent times where the Windows laptop can connect, it just needs to be told what IP address to use. | 02:40 |
| sab_ | rw,can you please tell me how can i fix it | 02:40 |
| Airris | Mischanix, you can start googling and searching sourceforge for any programs that facilitate a window's machine connecting to a unix network | 02:40 |
| coachj | Airris: I have had to do nothing except click share this folder and all windows machines bith vista and Xp can see the Ubuntu out of the bax | 02:40 |
| aetaric | Mischanix: dhcp ? | 02:40 |
| digitalfiz | is there a music app better then songbird and less laggy that can handle 13,000+ tracks? | 02:40 |
| hotxboy | yes it works but not very well with big size pdf. | 02:40 |
| juan0 | Escriba el texto aquí....hi | 02:41 |
| Mischanix | The iPod got DHCP info just fine. | 02:41 |
| Airris | coachj, yea it usually works pretty well, but I'm just lucky that way that it usually breaks | 02:41 |
| Out_Cold | hotxboy, i think i have chm viewer | 02:41 |
| bastid_raZor | digitalfiz: i find banshee does well with my 8K tracks | 02:41 |
| hotxboy | rw: what pdf reader do u recomend? | 02:41 |
| coachj | LOL | 02:41 |
| Airris | again, the iPod is most likely running some unix friendly architexture | 02:41 |
| Airris | the window's machine is not :P | 02:41 |
| juan0 | hola | 02:41 |
| aetaric | windows should burn | 02:41 |
| rw | hotxboy: like I said, I've always been fine with evince. if that isn't working... xpdf maybe? | 02:41 |
| rw | ubottu: es | juan0 | 02:42 |
| ubottu | juan0: 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. | 02:42 |
| * aetaric goes to setup 2k3 server with exchange | 02:42 | |
| stinson47 | sorry about that got disconected whats the best channel for ubuntu MID related questions? | 02:42 |
| hotxboy | rw: OK i`ll give it a try. | 02:42 |
| Airris | huh, i can actually understand most of that | 02:42 |
| Airris | language knowledge doesn't disappear in a hurry it would seem | 02:42 |
| aetaric | Airris: not at all. | 02:43 |
| digitalfiz | bastid_raZor, ill give that a try :) ty | 02:43 |

| MonsterTux | aetaric: Yah I realize that. But I'm almost positive you can submit a file to be uploaded (once reviewed and oh-kayed of course) | 03:00 |

| Airris | sab_, most likely it's misspelling | 03:04 |
| sab_ | aetaric, how can i fix this pkg bug | 03:04 |
| Airris | i recommend first doing 'aptitude search hadoop' | 03:05 |
| ubutom | MonsterTux, you gotta contact maintainers somehow, maybe this is a start: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewDevelopersAndMaintainers | 03:05 |
| aetaric | sab_: if it is a bug, it can't be fixed by you | 03:05 |
| Snow_Wolf | Does anyone know how to, using bash, read the first two characters of a line and then go down and read the next two? | 03:05 |
| aetaric | Airris: it is getting ther version from somewhere | 03:05 |

| ubutom | MonsterTux, np | 03:07 |
| === Guest59796 is now known as TheShadowMaster | ||
| Airris | sab_ do aptitude search hadoop. Perhaps you can find another version of the file. There's often several packages, the normal, the dev, the dbg, perhaps a slightly older version | 03:07 |
| cmpsalvestrini | sasayins: try DOSEmu | 03:07 |
| vicsar | @sasayins: install WINE | 03:07 |
| arvind_khadri | hi, is there a package which provides just an ldap-client | 03:07 |
| sasayins | @viscar: i see, so I will just type the exe file in the commandline after installing WINE? | 03:08 |
| sasayins | @viscar: then it will run? | 03:08 |
| vicsar | go to: Applications--> Ubuntu Software Center --> an search for Wine | 03:08 |
| bastid_raZor | sasayins: be in the same directory as the file.exe and type wine file.exe | 03:09 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | to run exe, type "wine file.exe" | 03:09 |
| sasayins | @vicsar: yeah already installed =) | 03:09 |
| sab_ | Airris, i did aptitude search hadoop,but getting no msg | 03:09 |
| sasayins | @bastid_raZor: with "wine" before the exe file? | 03:09 |

| cmpsalvestrini | @sasayins: yeah, that should do it. | 03:09 |
| vicsar | @sasayins: Ok. Do as bastid_razor sez | 03:10 |
| Airris | sab_, dunno then | 03:10 |
| btques | anyone know the typical /dev/? for bluetooth usb devices? | 03:10 |

| MonsterTux | ubutom: So I read those pages. I'm not actually seeing anything about uploading to the package manager, or how to go about doing that.....Unless I'm totally missing something. All they seem to be talking about is workign with the Ubuntu team on Ubuntu packages, rather than 3rd party things (like what I am wanting to upload) | 03:11 |
| sab_ | bastid_raZor, http://hadoop.apache.org/common/releases.html#Download | 03:12 |

| vVvHACKERvVv | arunbabu: Try to use Vesa drivers once nd see if it saves the settings | 03:15 |
| cfedde | arvind_khadri: openldap is an implementation of the ldap protocol and service. | 03:15 |
| ubutom | arvind_khadri, no idea, sorry, I jsut searched using aptitude | 03:16 |
| btques | vVvHACKERvVv: dmesg says usbcore: registered new interface driver btusb, but no /dev/bt* still found | 03:16 |
| MonsterTux | ubutom, aetaric: Well I've figure it out. Thanks for the help everyone | 03:16 |

| cfedde | brandonc503: or an sshd | 03:20 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | does ubuntu-restricted-extras include real player's codecs? | 03:20 |
| goddard | blakkheim how do you do that? | 03:20 |
| btques | vVvHACKERvVv: rafaelsoaresbr: no | 03:20 |
| goddard | blakkheim it has no features from what i can see | 03:20 |
| meanburrito920_ | rafaelsoaresbr: it should | 03:20 |
| markl_ | i have a dvd iso image, what is the easiest way to burn it? | 03:20 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | btques: is has to be one of the usbmon devices | 03:21 |
| btques | rafaelsoaresbr: no, i checked with the bbc, which has real and asx, and only the microsoft one worked | 03:21 |
| bastid_raZor | markl_: k3b, in my opinion, is the best burning software available | 03:21 |
| meanburrito920_ | markl_: insert a dvd into a dvd+ drive and right click the file, selecting burn-to-disk | 03:21 |
| hotxboy | Any idea to fix the ACPI video problem come across when using ubuntu? | 03:21 |
| remix1 | hey guys, so i got my netbook today from dell.. with windows 7 so i instanly installed ubuntu remix 9.10 with wubi (dual booted) now my ubuntu it tells me i have 61 bad sectors. when i scan with windows it says no bad sectors. whats then mean? | 03:21 |

| goddard | How can I make the ubuntu calander useful? | 03:21 |
| blakkheim | goddard: use it | 03:22 |
| meanburrito920_ | hotxboy: acpi is for power, not video | 03:22 |
| goddard | blakkheim how do you do that? | 03:22 |
| hotxboy | yes | 03:22 |
| markl_ | goddard: how do you define useful? | 03:22 |
| goddard | blakkheim it has no features from what i can see | 03:22 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | btques: not system specific, you have to write your own in bash or csh, every sys is different | 03:22 |
| goddard | markl add appointments and reminders | 03:22 |
| bastid_raZor | deja vu | 03:22 |

| vVvHACKERvVv | btques: check out sg0 & 1 I didn't see them before | 03:23 |
| btques | vVvHACKERvVv: its probably usbmon0, ok, i'll try those too | 03:23 |
| arunbabu | This is my partition table and menu.lst http://pastebin.com/pd345Mw6 I am having problems with dual booting with xp and ubuntu. Hope someone can help with it. | 03:23 |
| meanburrito920_ | sab_: it depends on what the project is. Most projects have a file called INSTALL in the root directory of the project | 03:23 |
| bazhang | !compile > sab_ | 03:23 |
| ubottu | sab_, please see my private message | 03:23 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | arunbabu, just get rid of windows | 03:24 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | ;-0 | 03:24 |
| meanburrito920_ | hotxboy: I'm afraid I don't know. Have you tried looking for it online? | 03:24 |
| hotxboy | my laptop lost 4 keycode when start-up with ubuntu. | 03:24 |
| arunbabu | vVvHACKERvVv: unfortunately I can't :) | 03:24 |
| hotxboy | yes tried all. | 03:24 |
| kevin_ | I've wanted to try to get KDE on my computer but it fails everytime I tried. I went into a virtual console and tried startkde and I got this: Display is not set or cannot connect to the x server. What should I do? | 03:24 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | arunbabu: was a linux joke | 03:24 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | I really didn't mean it | 03:24 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | but then again... | 03:24 |
| arunbabu | vVvHACKERvVv: never mind . | 03:24 |
| arunbabu | :) | 03:24 |
| hotxboy | anybody here knows it? | 03:25 |
| anubis | Could someone help me with a chvt problem ? | 03:25 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | arunbabu: and btw, your partition table doesn't matter, the boot loader will load any bootable partition | 03:25 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | preferably grub | 03:25 |
| iflema | arunbabu yeah what vVv said...... winxp needs to be on the first partition or it complains.... if it where at sda1 thered be no problems | 03:26 |
| hotxboy | ACPI is a way to control power management including screen brightness of laptops. | 03:26 |
| toastedmilk | Does anyone know about configuring apache's DocumentRoot upon fresh install? | 03:26 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | iflema: that is not true | 03:26 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | iflema: it only has to be a master partition below cylinder boundary | 03:26 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | 1024 cylinder | 03:26 |
| iflema | vVvHACKERvVv have you tried with xp recently? | 03:26 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | I have tried everything imaginable | 03:27 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: Have you installed GRUB at MBR (hd0,0)? | 03:27 |
| iflema | vVvHACKERvVv once apon a time xp hade to be on the first partition. | 03:27 |
| arunbabu | iflema: vVvHACKERvVv: is there anyway I can solve my problem without reinstalling ? | 03:27 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | iflema: yes it did that is no longer true | 03:27 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: how to confirm it ? | 03:27 |
| Golden_Kumquat | For whatever reason, I get a "device not ready" when trying to connect to a wireless network | 03:28 |
| iflema | vVvHACKERvVv goodone...... i guess | 03:28 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | arunbabu: you need to learn how to use grub, you can boot it by yourself by initializing your partition | 03:28 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | whoever asked about apache I am an expert with httpdconf so ask away | 03:28 |
| arunbabu | vVvHACKERvVv: Hope you can help me fixing with this at present!! :) | 03:29 |
| faleh | i upgrade my Ubuntu 9.04 to Ubuntu 10.4, but suddenly i can't open the Firefox anymore!! every time i click on it, the "start firefox..." appear in the down panel and then just disappear | 03:29 |
| sasayins | can I use cygwin under wine? | 03:29 |
| abhinav | arunbabu: what is the issue ? coulg you repeat please ? | 03:29 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | arunbabu: You need to google how to boot windwos partition with grub from command line I am not doing searching for you | 03:29 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | I will tell you how is all | 03:29 |
| abhinav | !lucid | faleh | 03:29 |
| ubottu | faleh: 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 | 03:29 |
| arunbabu | abhinav: This is my partition table and menu.lst http://pastebin.com/pd345Mw6 I am having problems with dual booting with xp and ubuntu. | 03:29 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sasayins: why in the world would you want to use cygwin under wine???? | 03:30 |
| edbian | sasayins, You should probably just use a terminal ;) | 03:30 |
| Golden_Kumquat | How do I configure my Wi-fi so I can actually connect? | 03:30 |
| DrDank | Hey guys. anyone here used VMPlayer on WinXP to run Ubuntu? | 03:30 |
| abhinav | arunbabu: what did you do ? install windows after linux ? | 03:30 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat: is there any encryption? WPA, WEP? | 03:30 |
| Golden_Kumquat | No | 03:30 |
| Golden_Kumquat | It's not even that | 03:30 |
| abhinav | arunbabu: some links at http://delicious.com/abhinav/mydesktop | 03:31 |
| sasayins | @vVvHACKERvVv: because I have a cross-compiler, customize for windows system, I am using it in windows using cygwin. And I want to use the cross-compiler in ubuntu | 03:31 |
| Golden_Kumquat | I get "device not ready" under "Wireless networks" | 03:31 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat: sudo ifconfig wlano [or your wifi card] inet=ip.ip.ip.ip netmask=255.25.255.0 | 03:31 |
| sasayins | @edbin : thinking that.. =) | 03:31 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat,: just fillin your numbers | 03:31 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat: Device dirver is not working then | 03:32 |
| Golden_Kumquat | Yeah, I figured as much | 03:32 |
| abhinav | sasayins: might be better to use virtualbox / vmware, no ? | 03:32 |
| arunbabu | abhinav: installed linux after windows. | 03:32 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | I always keep a USB wifi card that know works with Nix | 03:32 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: when you install windows, it sets it's partition as "active". | 03:32 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sasayins: I see @ your cygwin issue | 03:33 |
| === shazbotmcnasty is now known as ShazbotMcMurder | ||
| sasayins | avhinav: oh never thought of that, so I have to use VMware or virtualbox in here in my ubuntu? | 03:33 |
| arunbabu | abhinav: links doesnt seem to be working | 03:33 |
| * vVvHACKERvVv Not from me, do not use VirtualBox for anything other than smartphone os, it does not work properly | 03:33 | |
| vVvHACKERvVv | eg droid, webos ... | 03:34 |
| sasayins | @vVvHACKERvVv: yeah, that cross-compiler is a gcc, but the customized is not available for linux box | 03:34 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: so ? | 03:34 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: I think you should try setting linux's partition as "Active" again. | 03:34 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sasayins: why not just use mingw? | 03:34 |
| Golden_Kumquat | How do I find my IP? | 03:34 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | mingw will compile with the headers you wish | 03:34 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat: ifconfig | 03:34 |
| Golden_Kumquat | Ah thanks | 03:35 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: $sudo cfdisk to check | 03:35 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: i installed linux after windows. So linux should be active right? | 03:35 |
| sasayins | vVvHACKERvVv: mingw. here in ubuntu? then I can run that cross-compiler? | 03:35 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sasayins: I apologise, I misunderstood your configuration | 03:36 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: ERROR :FATAL ERROR: Bad logical partition 6: enlarged logical partitions overlap | 03:36 |
| Golden_Kumquat | Hmm, all I get is 127.0.0.1 | 03:36 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat: you can't simply have the loopback you are on the internet | 03:36 |
| sasayins | vVvHACKERvVv: oh its ok, I think I am the one who is very confusing. | 03:36 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | ifconfig -a | 03:36 |
| sevol | hi, i have 2 harddrives. 1 has ubuntu installed, the other has windows 7. is it possible to conver the 2nd drive with windows 7 into virtualbox? both drives boot seperately atm. | 03:37 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sasayins: what exactly do you need from gcc that you cannot pass a flag from ubuntu or with a lib | 03:37 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | eg so | 03:37 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sevol: virtual boxes do not work in that mannor | 03:38 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: how to fix this now ? :( | 03:38 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: try, sudo cfdisk /dev/sdx, change "x" with you hd's letter | 03:38 |
| toastedmilk | #sluglinux | 03:38 |
| toastedmilk | .. | 03:38 |
| Golden_Kumquat | Yeah, all I'm getting for an IP address is 127.0.0.1 still | 03:38 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: ;[ then is it possible for me to create an image of the windows 7 install then format the drive, then use virtualbox to install that image? | 03:39 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat: try sudo ifconfig -a | 03:39 |
| Golden_Kumquat | It gives me the same thing | 03:39 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sevol: A virtual machine must be installed to the Virtual machine system such as vmware, you cannot simply copy a windows install and run it in VM | 03:39 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | it doesnt work that way | 03:39 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: here is my partition table http://pastebin.com/pd345Mw6 . I am not very familiar with this stuff. | 03:40 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Golden_Kumquat: I don't get that, goto google and type what is my IP | 03:40 |
| gh0d | vVvHACKERvVv, yes you can | 03:40 |
| gh0d | i've imaged hds several time and turned them into VMs | 03:40 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: yea i understand that but why not if you save the drive as an image? | 03:40 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gh0d: not, the hardware will not match | 03:40 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gh0d: believ eme I have tried | 03:40 |
| Golden_Kumquat | The problem is that I can't get to Google since I don't have the driver device installed | 03:40 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: then install the image ? | 03:40 |
| gh0d | vVvHACKERvVv, true it wont but I've never had serious issues with it | 03:40 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sevol: you will need an OS install | 03:40 |
| sevol | gh0d: if u did it can u show me how? | 03:40 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gh0d: The registry will never work properly | 03:41 |
| sasayins | vVvHACKERvVv: its very appreciating your responses in my question but I think I am asking the wrong questions. Sorry for that I am noob about this linux things. And I just realize that I just need a wine to run my cross-compiler built for windows binary. thanks a lot. | 03:41 |
| gh0d | sevol, in a nutshell i'd hook the hd up to a usb sata/ide reader and then convert the disk image to a virtual machine image using WinImage | 03:41 |
| greezmunkey | sevol: I remember running across how-tos on Google that describe the process of creating a virtual winbox from an existing install. It looked a bit hairy, but it can be done. | 03:41 |
| phexter | not only the registry is a problem, the hardware is changing, too and that's something windows doesn't like at all | 03:41 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | greezmunkey: wow that newz to me | 03:42 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | interesting to know though | 03:42 |
| greezmunkey | gh0d: sorry, I was busy typing while you answered! :) | 03:42 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | I never would recommend it to someone | 03:42 |
| Golden_Kumquat | I was able to get the WiFi to work just fine on Windows, but I guess it's missing something here? | 03:42 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: sudo fdisk -l | 03:42 |
| sevol | gh0d: is it possible to create the win image from my ubuntu install? | 03:42 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | the basic idea is that creating an image to use on virtual will never work the way its supposed to | 03:42 |
| gh0d | sevol, doubt it | 03:42 |
| sevol | because at the moment the drives are seperately booted | 03:42 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | better off to install clean | 03:42 |
| Nisstyre65 | Golden_Kumquat, check if your chipset is supported by the Linux kernel : ) | 03:43 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | just my opinion | 03:43 |
| sevol | i'd have to reboot, move the windows drive to boot first | 03:43 |
| greezmunkey | vVvHACKERvVv: I don't think I recommended it, and went as far as to say it was a bit hairy. | 03:43 |
| gh0d | vVvHACKERvVv, then how does VMWare's migration tool work then | 03:43 |
| Roasted | GUYZ | 03:43 |
| Roasted | wrong chat | 03:43 |
| Nisstyre65 | if not... | 03:43 |

| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 03:43 |
| gh0d | vVvHACKERvVv, it migrates physical machines into virtual machines without any problems | 03:43 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gh0d: I am not aware of that feature, let me check please hang on | 03:43 |
| * Airris is disapearing | 03:43 | |

| tiziazrou | Hi I dont understand why the system sound is low everything is to the max in mixer may you help please | 03:44 |
| sevol | gh0d: vmware migration tool does this for you? | 03:44 |
| necro_ | how to turn on compiz? | 03:44 |
| gh0d | vVvHACKERvVv, http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/ | 03:44 |
| blakkheim | necro_: compiz --replace | 03:44 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: http://pastebin.com/XcVxRzmi it is " sudo cfdisk /dev/sda5 " ?? | 03:44 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | ghod: That is not the VMware workstation, t is a specialized component, but kudoz for mentioning it | 03:44 |
| gh0d | sevol, yes but i've never used that personally. I was just making a point | 03:44 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | I didn't know about that | 03:44 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gh0d: IN the workstation you can only clone existing Vms | 03:45 |
| brandonc503 | in stalled ftp but when i connect it puts me in /username/home. where in vpftpd.conf do i change that? | 03:45 |
| tiziazrou | Hi I dont understand why the system sound is low everything is to the max in mixer may you help please | 03:46 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | brandonc503: most assuradly in /etc | 03:46 |
| Nisstyre65 | brandonc503, you need to change the root of your ftp server | 03:46 |
| sevol | gh0d: ok thx im trying it right now | 03:46 |
| gh0d | vVvHACKERvVv, like I said I've done physical -> VM conversion using WinImage and Microsoft Virtual PC (free and legit for customers) | 03:47 |
| gh0d | sevol, no prob | 03:47 |
| sevol | how would i go about setting up my second hardrive as a slave? | 03:47 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gh0d: thanks, for the new info, I would just never do it LoL | 03:47 |
| gh0d | vVvHACKERvVv, haha i never said it was fun but it can be done | 03:47 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | touche gh0d | 03:47 |
| Golden_Kumquat | I assume that if I plug in an ethernet cable, I'll be connected without any trouble? | 03:47 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | anyone else play around with metasploit? | 03:47 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: i do | 03:48 |
| * vVvHACKERvVv loves metasploit | 03:48 | |
| vVvHACKERvVv | such a great set of useful tools | 03:48 |
| Nisstyre65 | Golden_Kumquat, yes | 03:48 |
| Golden_Kumquat | All right, thanks | 03:49 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: its a nice platform, but i actualyl never was able to pentest anything ;/ even local machines | 03:49 |
| Nisstyre65 | you might need to manually invoke dhcpcd | 03:49 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Nisstyre65: btw, changing the ftp root is excessive, all yo uneed to do is set your ftp client to goto a specific directory | 03:49 |
| Nisstyre65 | well, I didn't know what client he's using | 03:49 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | if your ftp config uses the DefaultRoot ~ directive as proftpd does | 03:49 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | just a note is all | 03:50 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Seveas: I setup VMs to test | 03:50 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Seveas: works great | 03:50 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Seveas: XPsp2 I have done with over 40 payloads | 03:50 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sp3 is hard | 03:50 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sometimes its jsut easier to crack wep and get on local rather than penetrate and use medusa to brute admin xp machines but thats ust my opinion | 03:51 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: i never tested on xpsp2 locally, but i've tried at a friends house | 03:52 |
| arunbabu | I am trying to boot windows xp from grub. I think I have done it correct http://pastebin.com/pd345Mw6 . It would be helpful if someone can help with it. | 03:52 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: i actualyl turned off the firewalls, allowed remote n opened all ports, but nothing ;/ | 03:52 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Seveas: tcp wrapper reverse is what to use to establish SP2 session | 03:52 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | works like a charm | 03:52 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | specifically, smb exploits | 03:52 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Sp2 is infamous for smb sploits | 03:52 |
| Nisstyre65 | what could possibly be the motivation to break into a windows share? lol | 03:53 |
| sevol | vVvHACKERvVv: u get any luck with patched sp2? | 03:53 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Nisstyre65: it's not motivation, its the fact that it can be done | 03:53 |
| Nisstyre65 | yeah | 03:53 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | simply fun to try | 03:53 |

| nathanbdot | Okay so I have linux server installed and it's running a VERY LONG download via apt-get. Is there a way I can run some other commands while I wait for this? | 03:59 |
| nathanbdot | ubuntu server*** | 03:59 |
| blakkheim | nathanbdot: use screen or another tty | 03:59 |
| Nisstyre65 | nathan__, just open another terminal, assuming you have x installed | 03:59 |
| bazhang | nathanbdot, only a single instance of apt at one time | 03:59 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: I have tried that link. It doesnt help. | 03:59 |
| blakkheim | Nisstyre65: why would he have X on a server.. | 04:00 |
| greezmunkey | Alt+F2 ?? | 04:00 |
| Nisstyre65 | oh lol | 04:00 |
| Nisstyre65 | well, are you physically there or via ssh? | 04:00 |
| brandonc503 | Nisstyre65: found secure_chroot_dir=/var/run/vsftpd/empty | 04:00 |
| nathanbdot | blakkheim: i have no desktop since it's the server edition. all i have is the command line. | bazhang: I don't want to run muliple apt instances. But I want to transfer some files while I wait for apt-get to complete. | 04:01 |
| Nisstyre65 | brandonc503, that's not your server root | 04:01 |
| nathanbdot | All I have is a command line--- nothing else | 04:01 |
| TheErk | Howdy all | 04:01 |
| heartlesshero | by 800, does not show me the option 1024 by 800, how would i change it back, step by step | 04:01 |
| blakkheim | nathanbdot: both of my suggestions were commandline | 04:01 |
| Nisstyre65 | maybe the documentation for the server has the right file | 04:01 |
| greezmunkey | nathanbdot: Try Alt+F2 or F3 | 04:01 |
| blakkheim | greezmunkey: you clearly don't understand | 04:01 |
| heartlesshero | my screen resolution changed from 1024 by 800 to something else, does not show me how to change it back, how can i change it to 1024 by 800 | 04:02 |
| heartlesshero | ? | 04:02 |
| blakkheim | heartlesshero: 1024x800 is quite an odd resolution, are you sure it wasn't x768? | 04:02 |
| nathanbdot | blakkheim: ok sorry, I don't understand your suggestions then. I'm new and I'm trying to learn the cmd so I can become a more advanced linix user. | 04:03 |
| heartlesshero | it was 1024 by something not sure of the second number | 04:03 |
| psusi | nathanbdot, screen is the best thing, otherwise hit ctrl-z to suspend the job, then if it is the only background job you have, bg %1 to resume it in the background while you do other things.. .though if it tries to output, it can get garbled with the output of whtaever else you are doing at the time | 04:03 |
| arunbabu | I am trying to boot windows xp from grub. I think I have done it correct http://pastebin.com/pd345Mw6 . It would be helpful if someone can help with it. | 04:03 |
| greezmunkey | blakkheim: So Alt+Fn won't generate another tty? | 04:03 |
| heartlesshero | blakkheim: it was 1024 by something not sure of the second number | 04:03 |
| blakkheim | greezmunkey: that will switch to a virtual console on his local computer | 04:03 |
| nathanbdot | greezmunkey: would you mind detailing exactly what each of your suggestions would do? I don't want to try something that I don't know what it does | 04:04 |
| blakkheim | greezmunkey: he's remotely logged into a server | 04:04 |
| nathanbdot | psusi: Okay. so screen is the command? | 04:04 |
| greezmunkey | blakkheim: Oh, I didn't see that. Sorry nathanbdot. | 04:04 |
| psusi | nathanbdot, screen lets you create several terminals and multiplex between them with one master terminal | 04:06 |
| nathanbdot | So even though I don't have a command line given to me (apt-get is outputting right now), I can still type the command? | 04:06 |
| psusi | nathanbdot, lets you disconnect from the session with several virtual terminals going and come back later too | 04:06 |
| psusi | nathanbdot, no, you have to use screen first | 04:06 |
| heartlesshero | does anyone know how to change a screen resolution to something thats not in the options | 04:07 |
| heartlesshero | ? | 04:07 |
| psusi | nathanbdot, if apt is already running, either ctrl-z to suspend it, or start another ssh instance to connect to the server | 04:07 |
| anubis | can anyone tell me how i can find out where a certain command is stored? | 04:07 |
| blakkheim | anubis: whereis command | 04:07 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | anubis: generally in /bin | 04:08 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | or /usr/bin | 04:08 |
| nathanbdot | psusi: ah another ssh. should have thought of that! okay..... so then my next question is how do I connect (locally) via ssh? haha | 04:08 |
| psusi | nathanbdot, if you just want to run something else real quick, then hit ctrl-z to suspend apt, then do what you want to do, then fg %1 to put the first job ( apt? ) back in the foreground | 04:08 |
| arunbabu | iflema: you told that XP needs to be first partition for no problems right? so isn't there anyway to fixit if it's not first partition ? | 04:08 |
| anubis | BlackBinary, thanks | 04:08 |
| greezmunkey | blakkheim: I looked through what was presented, and didn't see where nathanbdot stated that he was remote. I apprieciate the flame though. | 04:08 |
| nathanbdot | excatly $ fg %1 ? | 04:08 |
| psusi | nathan__, assuming that is the only thing you have in the background once you hit ctrl-z to suspend it, yes... fg %1 will put it back in the foreground | 04:09 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | If anyone has any apache or LAMP questions I will be happy to help | 04:09 |
| nathanbdot | psusi: okay i'll try that then | 04:09 |
| Flannel | anubis: `which command` will give you the path | 04:09 |
| psusi | fg puts a job back in the foreground... bg lets a suspended job run in the background... they take either a pid or %n where n is the job id according to the output of jobs | 04:09 |
| psusi | jobs running in the background can spit output at you at any time, which can get confusing... they will block if they try to read input until you foreground them again | 04:10 |
| anubis | Flannel, thanks | 04:10 |
| arunbabu | vVvHACKERvVv: just one more thing dude. Mine xp partition is in /dev/sda5 . So in menu.lst it should be given as (hd0,4) ? | 04:11 |
| nathanbdot | psusi: excellent - just tested it and it works (of course) thanks! :) | 04:11 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | arunbabu: it depends, grub will not list partition number the same as the /dev dir | 04:12 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | you will have to check grub.conf | 04:12 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: Windows should be at /dev/sda1 to work properly, but it's at /dev/sda5 (hd0,4) (sda5 is a secondary partition) | 04:12 |
| Airris | hmm, building gtk then building midori mostly worked out. Just one thing, is there anyway I can add a program to the Applications list? I've been wondering this for a while for programs i've compiled from src | 04:13 |
| iflema | arunbabu that used to be the way.... may not be any more..... however a small partition up front say 50mb would do..... but that has its own issues | 04:13 |
| arunbabu | vVvHACKERvVv: i think my problem is with that. Now how can give the correct (hdX,X) ? On what it depends? | 04:13 |
| === Guest69273 is now known as pragma_ | ||

| vVvHACKERvVv | where they reside on the drive will determine their numbers | 04:15 |
| iflema | arghhh....... | 04:15 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: I would recommend. have you ever started windows? | 04:16 |
| numberGrey | dumb question, but can i set a resolution in my xorg.conf that is outside of what is listed as one of the options in the display menu? so for example rather than a 4:3 ratio on a crt to a 16:9? | 04:16 |
| lat_ | blakkheim, thank you very much! That helps. | 04:16 |
| arunbabu | rafaelsoaresbr: not after installing UBUNTU :( | 04:16 |

| steven_ | arunbabu: can you help me | 04:18 |
| * arunbabu should I say windows sucks or Ubuntu .. | 04:18 | |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: start with windows installation CD and recover the mbr, choose 'r' to enter a recovery prompt. use "fixmbr". so you should be able to start windows. | 04:18 |
| steven_ | m00se: i need your help | 04:18 |
| gh0d | arunbabu, run the command "fixboot" also just in case | 04:19 |
| theadmin | rafaelsoaresbr: Wouldn't that erase any GRUB? | 04:19 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gh0d: that will detroy grub ya know | 04:19 |
| steven_ | how do i get add for compiz | 04:19 |
| gh0d | my mistake, i thought he wanted to restore the windows boot loader | 04:19 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: after that you would create a backup of GRUB with "dd" command. I think GRUB isn't at MBR. | 04:19 |
| iflema | arunbabu you could resize the ubuntu partion, make a small partitiona upfront, reload mbr from win install cd and reinstall ubuntu | 04:19 |
| theadmin | windows is such a mess :/ if i could tell it to not install this idiotic bootloader... | 04:20 |

| vVvHACKERvVv | Lanlost_: grub can boot any partition | 04:33 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | arunbabu: yes, just back up your /var/cache/apt/archives | 04:33 |

| vVvHACKERvVv | Lanlost_: it can yes | 04:34 |
| Lanlost_ | I mean, don't hard drives have a seperate MBR that won't be affected? | 04:34 |
| Lanlost_ | As in.. if I specified to install to hd0. Wouldn't that go to primary masters MBR? | 04:34 |
| Lanlost_ | Let's say thats the case.. would formatting sda1 screw that up? | 04:34 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Lanlost_Yes | 04:34 |
| Lanlost_ | how do you .. erase a mbr then? | 04:35 |
| Pisagor | is there any way that i can both keep my ubuntu cd and option to install it inside windows ? | 04:35 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Lanlost_: generally master drive will read mbr before salve | 04:35 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | slave | 04:35 |
| Lanlost_ | "Jun 8, 2009 ... GRUB won't even go away even if you format delete all the partitions ... your existing hard drive. I will start with the most easiest one: ..." | 04:35 |
| DrDank | ok drew im back. | 04:35 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | remember, though is mbr resides on slave, and no mbr on master slave will init | 04:35 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | no lanlost | 04:35 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | you can remove grub | 04:36 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | there are plenty of scripts to do that | 04:36 |
| Lanlost_ | Well, I got this computer from my parents who jumped to conclusion that it was broke. Long story made short. Power went out. POST screen had a "settings reset" type error. They freaked out and their neighbor ended up running the recovery disk for it | 04:36 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | if you are specifically referring to windows as someone said before, fixmbr will place M$ boot code on boot sector | 04:36 |
| Lanlost_ | formatted the drive.. then freaked out and turned off the power. I see the comp and there was nothing on it except a single Windows folder. | 04:36 |
| Lanlost_ | They said they didn't do anything. I had never seen a hard drive have data loss EXCEPT a windows folder and especially lose that much without just drying OR a virus that malicious in years | 04:37 |
| Lanlost_ | but I haven't used the hard drive in forever in the case that I might be able to recover from it.. or I didn't want to put data on it AND ACTUALLY have it crash. | 04:37 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Lanlost_: the recovery did not complete is all | 04:37 |

| vVvHACKERvVv | thought I would mention | 04:57 |
| linux_inferno | basix: booo. you could always just get another drive and make it FAT (makes me sick to type that) or EXT3 | 04:57 |

| ubottu | Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 05:18 |
| gogeta | th0r: no he does not | 05:18 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | Stratix: xchat for windows is not free anymore | 05:18 |
| Stratix | ah | 05:18 |
| DrDank | Id hate to think i spent all that time and aggrivattion editing/scripting and trial and error for nothing! | 05:19 |
| Stratix | I'm personally using erc from windows at the moment | 05:19 |
| heartlesshero | th0r: just add what the drive name is to /etc/fstab? | 05:19 |
| gogeta | th0r: any drives ubuntu sees it wil mount | 05:19 |
| DrDank | im just hoping this works. it will be badass to have windows on one side on a lcd. and ubuntu on the other lcd.. lol | 05:19 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | DrDank: no, you have now taken a step to a real programming language, | 05:19 |
| DrDank | i feel like a little kid. | 05:19 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | DrDank: take some PERL tutorials | 05:19 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | it will help you learn linux too | 05:19 |
| linux_inferno | heartlesshero: there are plenty of guides that google can provide for this | 05:19 |
| gogeta | heartlesshero: pluggin it in should have the same effect | 05:20 |
| DrDank | Perl? as in what I use to make old form mailer scripts with for websites? | 05:20 |
| DrDank | if so, I know a little, or I did. | 05:20 |
| DrDank | lol, about all I can remember now is the shebang line. | 05:20 |
| heartlesshero | gogeta: it is plugged in, everytime i boot up i have to right click and hit mount drive | 05:20 |
| DrDank | the vmware is downloading linux tools.. wish it would hurry up! lol | 05:20 |
| th0r | heartlesshero: add it to /etc/fstab | 05:20 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | DrDank: then use python, python plugin for xchat is great | 05:20 |
| DrDank | Can I set this vmware to start up with Windows and auto do the dual monitor and everything? | 05:20 |
| gogeta | heartlesshero: yea then you gotta add it to fstab | 05:21 |
| DrDank | or do I have to manually start it and drag it over there to the other lcd | 05:21 |
| th0r | gogeta: gee...wish I had thought of that | 05:21 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | DrDank: VmWare will remember its closing position | 05:21 |
| USDL | what is the better irc client? | 05:21 |
| gogeta | heartlesshero: and you dont need to even hit mount in 9.10 just clicking on it mounts it | 05:21 |
| linux_inferno | heartlesshero: http://www.bradtrupp.com/ubuntu-add-hard-drive.html | 05:21 |
| DrDank | awesome.. i think i might like this shittt :) | 05:22 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | close on second monitor | 05:22 |
| bazhang | DrDank, watch the language please | 05:22 |
| heartlesshero | gogeta: thor: how would i do that? everytime i go cd fstab/ it says directory not found | 05:22 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | usually windows program remember window position one of 2 ways either by INI or by registry settings | 05:22 |
| th0r | heartlesshero: see if this helps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=669520 | 05:22 |
| heartlesshero | linux_inferno: shut up | 05:22 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | you could in theory write a closing handle for the window | 05:22 |
| gogeta | heartlesshero: fstab is a file | 05:22 |

| ubottu | heartlesshero: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 05:23 |
| th0r | heartlesshero: it is a text file ... type 'nano /etc/fstab'. But you will need to use sudo when you are ready to edit it | 05:23 |
| DrDank | I heard Linux is like 100% customizable compared to windows. and ive got my version of windows tweaked out lol | 05:23 |
| gogeta | heartlesshero: it takes a bit on know how but you edit it as su with a text editor | 05:23 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | DrDank: once you understand what lInux is you will be able to make a better decision | 05:24 |
| USDL | what is the better irc client? | 05:24 |
| ardchoille | !best | 05:24 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 05:24 |
| DrDank | Linux is a open source operating system, right? lol | 05:24 |
| USDL | what is the favorite irc client? | 05:24 |
| USDL | rs | 05:24 |
| gogeta | DrDank: yes | 05:24 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | yes DrDank | 05:24 |
| gogeta | USDL: thers no favret use what you like | 05:24 |
| DrDank | So I could just edit the source code, reboot and presto? or ?? | 05:25 |
| gogeta | USDL: i just use pidgin | 05:25 |
| heartlesshero | DrDank: yes it is | 05:25 |
| ardchoille | DrDank: edit source code, recompile, reinstall, reboot.. yeah | 05:25 |
| gogeta | DrDank: edit compole install share changes | 05:25 |
| Nisstyre65 | recompiling is the hard part | 05:25 |
| USDL | hum, oks | 05:25 |
| USDL | thks | 05:25 |
| DrDank | But, its like windows though right.. you fuck itup the os wont load? | 05:26 |
| bazhang | DrDank, stop cursing | 05:26 |
| Stratix | DrDank: Depends on what you modify | 05:26 |
| gogeta | DrDank: you relly relly relly have to fuck up to make linux not boot | 05:26 |
| ardchoille | !language | gogeta | 05:26 |
| ubottu | gogeta: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 05:26 |
| greezmunkey | yikes... | 05:26 |
| mezquitale | !language | gogeta | 05:27 |
| gogeta | DrDank: you can even crash the gui and linux will still run | 05:27 |
| DrDank | gogeta, lol im capable of that, im sure. lol | 05:27 |
| gogeta | DrDank: unlike windows apps dont depend on the entire os to work | 05:27 |
| ardchoille | DrDank: The good thing about Linux, is most of the time crashing an app doesn't take down the entire OS with it | 05:28 |
| DrDank | Yeah, thats a windows major down fall.. lol | 05:28 |
| DrDank | that, and all those damn updates. | 05:28 |
| gogeta | DrDank: linux gets upgrades more often then windows | 05:28 |
| * phantmi needs help with apt-mirror | 05:29 | |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gogeta: oh yea | 05:29 |
| Stratix | I don't think Linux updates require reboots usually tho | 05:29 |
| Stratix | Unlike windows | 05:29 |
| gogeta | vVvHACKERvVv: yea ii get a windows update maybe once a month a linux one every other day | 05:29 |
| DrDank | Well, it seems like everytime I reboot my windows box damn 'Updates are ready for your Computer' | 05:29 |
| DrDank | lol | 05:29 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gogeta: touche' | 05:29 |
| gogeta | vVvHACKERvVv: thats not a bad thing | 05:30 |
| phantmi | no u r right cept when it comes to kernel updates | 05:30 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | gogeta: neither is touche' it was compliment;-) | 05:30 |
| gogeta | DrDank: and hes right most updates dont even need a reboot | 05:30 |
| phantmi | then it requires a reboot | 05:30 |
| Stratix | Well sure, that's the kernel | 05:30 |
| mezquitale | DrDank, please watch your language, if you are not experiencing any issues with your ubuntu machine please talk about it in #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:30 |
| DemoOn | +windows cant be run on usb stick, i think | 05:30 |
| Stratix | But how often do you get a Windows kernel update? | 05:30 |
| mezquitale | Stratix, you can ask that in ##windows | 05:31 |
| bazhang | lets get back on topic please | 05:31 |
| linux_inferno | is there a cross platform chat program that uses irc and aim | 05:31 |
| DrDank | Yeah, im going to go afk. ill be back after this thing finishes. | 05:31 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | have fun DrDank | 05:31 |
| valley | Is there a powerpc build for Ubuntu 10.04 Beta? | 05:32 |
| gogeta | lol powerpc | 05:32 |
| gogeta | whats that | 05:32 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | hahahah | 05:32 |
| bazhang | valley, good question, ask in #ubuntu+1 | 05:32 |
| vVvHACKERvVv | sorry that was funny gogeta | 05:32 |
| bazhang | gogeta, that is not helpful | 05:32 |
| Stratix | linux_inferno: Have a look at bitlbee, it maps various chat protocols to irc, including AIM | 05:32 |
| phantmi | the laptop i am currently using has 3 OS mounted on it | 05:32 |
| gogeta | its a dead arc im allowed to stab at it | 05:32 |
| linux_inferno | Stratix: thanks | 05:33 |
| mezquitale | linux_inferno, i heard that empathy does just that but im not sure about irc, chat most likely it works, aim, yahoo, msn | 05:33 |
| bazhang | gogeta, stay on topic and be helpful. | 05:33 |
| * mawst takes a birthday shot | 05:33 | |
| DemoOn | i havent booted in ubuntu a long ago... | 05:33 |
| linux_inferno | mezquitale: Yea, i know of a few that do all the IM stuff I want one that uses IRC too | 05:34 |
| mezquitale | valley, you can ask about lucid in #ubuntu+1 | 05:34 |
| phantmi | windows vista(hardly used)was on it when i bought it within 5 days i made it dual boot with kubuntu 8.04 then recently added kubuntu 10.04 beta 1 | 05:34 |
| valley | mezquitale: I did | 05:34 |
| gogeta | linux_inferno: sorry i flew off topic yes there is a universel client well a few 9.10 comes with empithy and thers also pidgin | 05:35 |
| gogeta | linux_inferno: they do everything | 05:35 |
| mezquitale | valley, if there is no one around to answer your question I suggest you ask again at another time and day, #ubuntu+1 is used to talk about the development versions of ubuntu exclusively | 05:35 |
| linux_inferno | gogeta: Pidgin does IRC? | 05:36 |
| astrocub | how do i enable xorg.conf, i need to make some adjustments | 05:36 |
| gogeta | linux_inferno: yea better then emptihy | 05:36 |
| mezquitale | linux_inferno, some guys have told me they use irc on empathy to log on to this room, i have never used empathy for irc but you can install it and try it | 05:36 |
| astrocub | !xorg | 05:36 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 05:36 |
| * phantmi prefers xchat for irc | 05:36 | |
| gogeta | linux_inferno: take standerd irc commands | 05:36 |
| astrocub | !xorg.conf | 05:37 |
| bazhang | astrocub, /msg ubottu please | 05:37 |
| Stratix | linux_inferno: http://www.pidgin.im/ , yes Pidgin does IRC | 05:37 |
| rocket16 | Hello all, found a great replacement for OneNote! It is Basket, and very nice. Thought It might help some people. | 05:37 |
| mezquitale | linux_inferno, there you go, gogeta just gave you a vote for pidgin | 05:37 |
| gogeta | linux_inferno: just add account and irc | 05:37 |
| trinikrono | i use pidgin | 05:38 |
| astrocub | i tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but a xorg.conf wasn't created | 05:38 |
| === Dkennedy1 is now known as Dkennedy | ||
| gogeta | linux_inferno: you can also do it with the one included with ubuntu i just prefer the abilty to pass standerd commands | 05:39 |
| linux_inferno | gogeta: cool. I am trying to get all my computers and OSs to hae the same software to cut down on hotkey headaches. I get enough of that with all the 3d packages i use | 05:40 |
| gogeta | linux_inferno: both client do all messangers and irc pidgin is just better with irc | 05:41 |
| DrDank | logging into ubuntu :) | 05:41 |
| DrDank | oh cool.. sounds and all are shared. | 05:41 |
| DrDank | niceee | 05:41 |
| greezmunkey | Is it possible to ssh into Ubuntu, start a number of programs, then log out and have those programs continue to run? Such that you could log back in later and pick up where you left off? | 05:42 |
| DrDank | the ubuntu screen is super small though lmao.. i can change this, right? | 05:42 |
| linux_inferno | gogeta: thanks. | 05:42 |
| m0ar | How do I download a flashgame and run it? | 05:42 |
| greezmunkey | I wouldn't even know where to begin to search for an answer for that... | 05:42 |
| ubutom | m0ar, just save the site and open it with firefox locally | 05:43 |
| gogeta | m0ar: .. open it withfirefox i assume | 05:43 |
| astrocub | i've closed out x.org and tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and still no xorg.conf file was created | 05:43 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, for console programs, log in via SSH and add "&" at the end of the command (for daemons mostly) or search for "screen" | 05:43 |
| m0ar | ubutom: Ya, how do I save the site? Not a flash game, but a flash object i guess | 05:43 |
| astrocub | i need a template to work with | 05:43 |
| ubutom | m0ar, file -> safe page as | 05:44 |
| DrDank | Yeah, got it looking nice nowww :) | 05:44 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/ | 05:44 |
| m0ar | ubutom: Ah, it's that easy | 05:44 |
| ubutom | m0ar, yeah, been pdoing that for years :D | 05:44 |
| DrDank | but I have a red box (sqaure) in the top right corner thatsays unknown?? | 05:44 |
| ubutom | m0ar, have some funny flash things saved like from weebl and so on | 05:45 |
| ubutom | m0ar, and they still work:) | 05:45 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, does that answer your question? | 05:45 |
| gogeta | flash and linux dont play nice | 05:45 |
| DrDank | man, i love this. now i just need to learnt o use it! lol | 05:45 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: Actually, playing with screen prompted me to ask. | 05:45 |
| DrDank | welp guys im off to fool around. thanks for the help! | 05:45 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, so screen doesn't do the job for you? | 05:46 |
| Duke_ | I had an NTFS formatted drive with all my windows stuff on it, when I decided I didnt want windows any more I tried to format the drive to ext3 and I think I may have messed something up because Ubuntu no longer recognises it. It's still plugged in and everything. Any way I can get it back? | 05:46 |
| GreenT | Flash sucks. That's a fact. ;) | 05:46 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: It seems to die when I log out. | 05:46 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: I'll try again. | 05:46 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, CTRL+A, D is the sequence you need to press to put a session into the background | 05:47 |
| sreeju | i had installed 7zip from software center but i cant see anything,how can i open that application | 05:47 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, then use screen -r <enter pid here> to return to the session | 05:47 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: Loggin back in again... | 05:47 |
| ubuntu | hi all ..need ur help guys...very badly! | 05:47 |

| ubuntu | ya i have googled ..tried a few steps in loading grub from commandline | 05:48 |
| DemoOn | ubuntuhad the same problem | 05:48 |

| GreenT | ubuntu: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/ | 05:49 |
| almoxarife | Ademan: install gkorphan | 05:49 |
| ubutom | ubuntu, you could be able to load ubuntu again by adding it to the win7 bootloader | 05:49 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: i did after this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 05:49 |
| ubuntu | ya demoon i tried that link too | 05:49 |
| ubuntu | i have one ext2 & one ext3 partition... | 05:49 |
| DemoOn | ubuntuwhat was wrong? | 05:50 |
| ubuntu | i want to know in which partition is my linux loading | 05:50 |
| ubuntu | loaded* | 05:50 |
| ubuntu | ext2 - 3.5gb | 05:50 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: u need the one where u have /boot | 05:50 |
| ubuntu | ext3 - 120gb | 05:50 |
| ubuntu | how do i find which is boot?/ | 05:50 |

| ubuntu | im new to linux | 05:51 |
| === Guest73407 is now known as cam_ | ||
| sreeju | is there anybody to help me? | 05:51 |
| mezquitale | my fan is spinning like cwazy | 05:51 |
| DemoOn | mezquitale: mine too, its very loud | 05:51 |
| frosty_ | sup | 05:51 |
| mezquitale | sreeju, that all depends on what you need help on | 05:51 |
| GreenT | sreeju, isn't that a command line application only? | 05:51 |
| DemoOn | ubuntuu can mount your partitions | 05:51 |
| blakkheim | GreenT: what's wrong with that? | 05:52 |
| cam_ | i have installed ubuntu 10.04 beta 1 ... i have some issues with ubuntu one. i cannot get the client to work. i cannot synchronize folder i set "to synchronize"... what can i do? | 05:52 |
| ubuntu | yes its all mounted | 05:52 |
| blakkheim | !lucid > cam_ | 05:52 |
| ubottu | cam_, please see my private message | 05:52 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: no luck, I'm looking through google. The goal I have is to be able to compile, etc on the remote machine, but to suspend my session whilst allowing that work to be done while I'm away. | 05:52 |
| bazhang | cam_, #ubuntu+1 for lucid please | 05:52 |
| GreenT | blakkheim, nothing is wrong with that... but if it's a console application, there's no fancy GUI for him | 05:52 |
| cam_ | oh yeah ok | 05:52 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: then check where u have /boot | 05:52 |
| mezquitale | DemoOn, do you have an old machine? I have a SATA HD, it looks like my CPU is spinning quite fast | 05:52 |
| blakkheim | GreenT: which is fine | 05:52 |
| sreeju | how can i extract a rar file then? | 05:52 |
| blakkheim | sreeju: unrar x file.rar | 05:53 |
| DemoOn | mezquitale: old, but the loudest fan is on my motherboards chip, its broken or smthing | 05:53 |
| GreenT | blakkheim, so what? i'm just trying to answer his question as to why he can't find it | 05:53 |
| blakkheim | mezquitale: cpus don't spin | 05:53 |
| ubuntu | demoon,... i have boot folder in both the partitions | 05:53 |
| blakkheim | or at least they shouldn't | 05:53 |
| GreenT | sreeju, do you mind reading the manpage or the documentation for 7zip? | 05:53 |
| xangua | sreeju: sudo apt-get install rar unrar | 05:53 |
| ubutom | cleaning helps sometimes ;) | 05:54 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: Then choose that where u have your kernel | 05:54 |
| ubuntu | hw do i find tht? | 05:54 |
| mezquitale | blakkheim, cpu's generate heat making the fan mounted on the cpu quite fast, which makes a loud fan noise | 05:54 |
| blakkheim | mezquitale: i'm aware of that | 05:54 |
| ubutom | removing the fan and brushing the dust out improves the cooling | 05:55 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: in your /boot | 05:55 |
| mezquitale | i mean, that's what i meant, sorry for the ambiguity | 05:55 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, are you sure that doesn't work? you run "screen", then start your process to be performed in the background, exit the session with CTRL+A followed by "d" and then return with screen -r <pid> to your session. | 05:55 |
| DemoOn | ubutom: yeah, anyway, my fan is a little bit broken | 05:55 |
| ubuntu | which file should i look for? | 05:55 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, have you checked that these processes really don't run in the background? | 05:55 |
| sreeju | bye | 05:55 |
| ubutom | DemoOn, you could replace it, good for the nerves:) | 05:55 |
| AbortD | server edition is the same as the regular just different software? | 05:56 |
| DemoOn | ubutom: im too lazy | 05:56 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: different kernel | 05:56 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: vmlinuz | 05:56 |
| AbortD | different kernel? | 05:56 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: but you can install the server kernel in a deskto pversion | 05:56 |
| AbortD | :/ | 05:56 |
| AbortD | whats the difference in the kernel? | 05:57 |
| ubuntu | ok its in ext3 partition | 05:57 |
| AbortD | im trying to setup a web server and email server on a old desktop i have | 05:57 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: so stick to that help | 05:57 |
| ubuntu | ok | 05:57 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/features/kernel | 05:57 |
| AbortD | should i get server or desktop version? | 05:57 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: debian | 05:57 |
| AbortD | debian? | 05:57 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: just my opinion | 05:57 |
| ubuntu | thanks Demo0n | 05:57 |
| GreenT | AbortD, do you need server features? like running a web or mail server? | 05:58 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: Yes, the Ubuntu console is right next to me, I can see that the processes generated when I'm logged in, die when I log out... | 05:58 |
| AbortD | yeah | 05:58 |
| AbortD | i cant get that software for desktop version though cant i | 05:58 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: yes | 05:58 |
| ubuntu | Demo0n: i cannot find grub.cfg file in grub directory | 05:58 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: I really don't think I want rsh here either! | 05:59 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: it's the EXACT same repositories, it's just a matter of what is preinstalled by default. i use the minimal iso and use aptitude to install the server kernel and what i need | 05:59 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, are you sure screen is not continuing to run the session? have you checked "screen -ls" ? | 05:59 |
| NetRectifier | Anyone got IP's with open port 445 | 05:59 |
| AbortD | hm i dont care how bulky it is honestly | 05:59 |
| ubutom | conerning ArbotD's question, I was quite surprised, that the regular version doesn't come with functions like reinstalling grub, seems to be on the Alternate-CD. | 05:59 |
| blakkheim | AbortD: then you are with the right distro :/ | 06:00 |
| DemoOn | ubuntu: at both dirs? | 06:00 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: I don't see it, but I'll try it again via ssh...brb | 06:00 |
| ubuntu | i can find grub.cfg in ext2 partition | 06:00 |
| almoxarife | NetRectifier: that was a question? | 06:01 |
| greezmunkey | GreenT: dude, I think maybe you are right...There are several suitable screens on: etc, etc :) | 06:01 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, well... than i guess your processes are running just fine --- in the background, which is screen's purpose anyway ;) | 06:02 |
| happyaron | where can I find somebody to ask about how to organize a release party? | 06:02 |
| Futureproof | hey, does anyone know about screen + irssi? | 06:02 |
| GreenT | greezmunkey, just use screen -r 12345 (where 12345 is the pid you get from screen -ls) to return to the session | 06:02 |
| blakkheim | Futureproof: i'm using that right now | 06:02 |

| Zenker | ive installed blender 2.49b and dont need 2.49a b to be short n sweet is better. when i attempt to uninstall a it says that ubuntustudio-graphics is a dependent of blender, also ubuntustudio-graphics has many other dependents. what should i do? | 06:18 |
| sevol2 | i want to create a bash alias .. i did alias agi='apt-get install' | 06:18 |

| blakkheim | sevol2: add it to your .bashrc and logout | 06:19 |
| sevol2 | oO u gotta log out | 06:19 |
| rww | sevol2: nothing, though if you wanted it to be persistant you'd need to put it in .bashrc in your homefolder | 06:19 |
| Beauford | hey would anyone know the sudo to install U+2600 - U+26FF: Miscellaneous Symbols? | 06:19 |
| vsg | Hi everybody. I have problems on my notebook (MSI MegaBook MS-1325). Sometimes sound turns into scratchy noise, but does not completely disappear though. To fix this I had to reboot, but I've found an alternative solution. It helps when on Sound Preferences > Hardware I change Profile from "Analog Stereo Output" to e.g. "Digital Stereo Duplex" and then back again. I'd like to turn this... | 06:19 |
| vsg | ...action into a script and put it on Panel in order to do quick fixing (because I don't know a better permanent solution). The question is can anyone give me a hint about what happens (what commands are executed, or which commands could give same result) when I change that setting? ("alsa-utils restart" is not the thing I search for, it doesn't help, it's something else) Or maybe you could... | 06:19 |
| vsg | ...point me at place where I can find sources for Sound Preferences application? | 06:19 |
| FloodBot1 | vsg: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:19 |
| rww | sevol2: you don't need to log out, you can just issue "source ~/.bashrc" or open a new terminal window ) | 06:19 |
| sevol2 | i did gedit ~/.bashrc | 06:19 |
| sevol2 | is that rite? | 06:20 |

| BigMack83 | im on 9.10 and i want to upgrate to lucid beta 1. when running "update-manager -d" and trying to update i have to download about 1.5 Gb of files. but if i have the live cd for 10.04 can i use that just to install over my current 9.10? | 06:24 |
| theadmin | BigMack83: It will erase the settings and stuff | 06:24 |
| theadmin | BigMack83: You can upgrade with the Alternate CD, however. | 06:25 |
| rww | BigMack83: 1) #ubuntu+1 for 10.04 support and discussion, 2) You can reinstall with a LiveCD, you need an alternate CD for upgrades. | 06:25 |
| BigMack83 | so then i need to update from update manager. is there a way to have it pull the available packaged from the cd? instead of havign to DL all of them? | 06:25 |
| rww | BigMack83: from the Live/Desktop CD? no. | 06:26 |
| === ariel is now known as Guest42557 | ||
| ubutom | sure? Can't he add them to etc/sources.list? | 06:26 |
| rww | ubutom: LiveCDs can't be added to sources.list, you need an Alternate CD for that. | 06:26 |
| theadmin | rww: They can :/ | 06:26 |
| rww | no | 06:27 |
| theadmin | rww: It was in mine after install | 06:27 |
| theadmin | rww: They have less packages though %) | 06:27 |
| BigMack83 | name of the iso is lucid-desktop-amd64.iso, i belive thats the live cd and not the alternate | 06:27 |
| rww | BigMack83: correct | 06:27 |
| theadmin | BigMack83: Yes | 06:27 |
| Futureproof | woohoo, I got the adv_windowlist script. Just what I wanted | 06:27 |
| airtonix | theadmin, only after you've installed from them... not while you are using the livecd. | 06:27 |
| bejiitas_wrath | Only a handful of packages on Live disc. | 06:27 |
| bejiitas_wrath | To install with apt-get | 06:28 |
| BigMack83 | ah, ok so if i have the live disc i should just install with update manager anyways | 06:28 |
| bejiitas_wrath | Yes. | 06:28 |

| Zenker | b4 anyone says it i do know theres a ubuntustudio room :) but no one's answering anyhow i am using ubuntustudio and i installed blender 2.49b before i installed the studio stuff and when i installed the studio it installed 2.49a again, when i attempt to uninstall a it says that ubuntustudio-graphics is a dependent of blender, also ubuntustudio-graphics has many other dependents. what should i do? | 06:28 |
| BigMack83 | i just looked a few hours ago. was 1,527 megs | 06:28 |
| lateralus01 | I'm having problems with my wireless card, intel 4965, the connection lags a lot | 06:28 |

| lat | If you delete a symbolic link, does that delete the source file also? | 06:31 |
| rww | lat: no | 06:31 |
| lat | rww, thanks. | 06:32 |
| lateralus01 | yea I have, the ping illustrates the connection problems, about 10 pings will get replies, then nothing for 10-20 seconds then the pings get through again | 06:32 |
| Zenker | soreau mainly to save a little disk space i only have 120gb and im dual booting with vista, and 2.49b is better | 06:33 |
| lateralus01 | the thing is, I've used gentoo before and had no problems, i had to download compile and install the iwlwifi drivers but they worked fine | 06:33 |
| lateralus01 | but the module for my card is iwl4965 and it isn't listed in lsmod, sudo modprobe iwl4965 doesn't produce any errors but it doesn't load the module either | 06:33 |

| pallu | hello all of you | 06:36 |
| soreau | Zenker: or maybe you could just upgrade the package | 06:36 |

| nitai | almoxarife, no im on 32 bit ubuntu | 06:52 |
| Nisstyre65 | that may not be the right package name | 06:52 |
| almoxarife | brijith: google check-install , see if that helps you | 06:52 |
| Nisstyre65 | but it will likely still work | 06:52 |
| bazhang | brijith, packaging for a PPA? | 06:52 |
| ynk | is there a channel specifically for people who want to learn shell scripting? | 06:52 |
| bazhang | Nisstyre65, its not | 06:52 |
| almoxarife | I assumed .deb pckging | 06:52 |
| Nisstyre65 | open synaptic, and search for the flash package | 06:52 |
| brijith | bazhang: I want to create deb | 06:52 |
| rww | ynk: #bash, perhaps? | 06:53 |
| abhi_nav | yah #bash | 06:53 |
| brijith | almoxarife: ya right, I want to create a deb package | 06:53 |
| ynk | rww, abhi_nav, thanks. i'll give it a shot. | 06:53 |
| almoxarife | brijith: yeap, package 'check-install' | 06:53 |

| brijith | almoxarife:Ok | 06:53 |
| almoxarife | Zenker: let me see | 06:54 |
| ynk | what does "check-install" do? checks for the package name? | 06:54 |
| rww | almoxarife, brijith: checkinstall, actually. no - | 06:54 |
| rww | !checkinstall | 06:54 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 06:54 |
| almoxarife | ynk: makes debs from source | 06:54 |
| ynk | Nisstyre65, yeah that didn't work. i'll just look in the synaptic. | 06:54 |
| UbuntuLillian | Does anyone know a good program for webcam chatting other than skype? Preferably something that allows saving of the video | 06:54 |
| almoxarife | and installs them | 06:54 |
| Nisstyre65 | ynk; I think it's called flashplugin | 06:54 |
| * rww wonders what happens if you interrupt checkinstall while it's running | 06:55 | |
| Nisstyre65 | I'm just going to guess | 06:55 |
| rww | ynk, Nisstyre65: It's flashplugin-nonfree | 06:55 |
| Nisstyre65 | but it won't get compiled | 06:55 |
| ynk | anyone else use "Gnome-Do". my goodness! this thing is such a life saver. | 06:55 |
| almoxarife | Zenker: that's the one gksu | 06:55 |
| Zenker | ah ok thank you | 06:56 |
| almoxarife | Zenker: it opens files and folders | 06:56 |
| Nisstyre65 | rww; okay lol, I'm on arch and they have different package names | 06:56 |
| Nisstyre65 | that's the adobe one, it may not run well | 06:56 |
| ynk | rww, you, my friend, are my new favorite hero.. thanks. | 06:56 |

| iceroot | !autostart | abhi_nav | 06:59 |
| ubottu | abhi_nav: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 06:59 |

| iceroot | ynk: yes | 06:59 |
| ynk | okay. | 06:59 |
| Nisstyre65 | it might run badly | 06:59 |
| Nisstyre65 | it does for me | 06:59 |
| abhi_nav | icreroot: what command for ibus to add in startup applications? | 06:59 |
| abhi_nav | iceroot :^^ | 06:59 |
| abhi_nav | iceroot: and why it automatically starts in my admin account? and not here? | 07:00 |
| iceroot | abhi_nav: use tab for nicks. "which ibus" will tell you the command | 07:00 |
| klappi | Nisstyre65, buggy as hell here | 07:00 |
| abhi_nav | oh tab works, great! thanks iceroot | 07:00 |
| Nisstyre65 | yeah, it's adobe's fault | 07:00 |
| abhi_nav | iceroot, no result for which ibus | 07:01 |
| brijith | almoxarife: I have some python source files and glade file, I used to run like python filename.py to get it run .... How can I create a deb out of it using check-install | 07:01 |

| brijith | almoxarife: do I need to create configure or make file ?? | 07:01 |
| Nisstyre65 | brijith; python is an interpreted language | 07:02 |
| Nisstyre65 | that means you don't compile them | 07:02 |
| Nisstyre65 | unless you're writing python modules | 07:02 |
| abhi_nav | iceroot, i added these lines " export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus | 07:02 |

| iceroot | brijith: use dh_make put the python-script in the root-directory and correct "rules" and "control" to install it | 07:02 |
| brijith | Nisstyre65: So what I have to do | 07:03 |
| Nisstyre65 | brijith; you can get .py files to run anywhere by putting them in your /bin | 07:03 |

| Zenker | almoxarife that didnt work, i still cant (for example) open the lost+found folder, ill just make a launcher w sudo nautilus that'll work wont it? | 07:03 |
| brijith | Nisstyre65: but I want it in a .deb | 07:03 |
| Nisstyre65 | okay, I'm not sure how you would do that | 07:04 |

| almoxarife | brijith: that is all the deb packaging I know, sorry | 07:12 |

| brijith | iceroot:can you suggest any good tutorial that will help me in python packaging | 07:14 |
| geoffmcc | well i would like to have ufw enabled and still have connection sharing - then need cofigure ufw for portforwarding of a counter strike server | 07:14 |
| geoffmcc | i have it without ufw but everytime i restart i have to re-enter my counter strike iptables . adding to rc.local didnt work like it did for the ICS ones | 07:15 |

| underdev | hi. suddenly i am getting these horrible artifacts in my text in Terminal on 9.10. anyone experienced this? | 07:16 |
| underdev | maybe i should reboot | 07:16 |
| underdev | couldn't hurt :) | 07:16 |
| almoxarife | geoffmcc: I gave up on ufw, too cryptic for my taste, I wanted something still to make me fell better, I found 'firestarter' works for me, gui even | 07:17 |
| geoffmcc | in my search i read people discuss firestarter, was not clear- can i run from terminal | 07:18 |
| almoxarife | geoffmcc: good question, no idea, maybe not | 07:18 |
| geoffmcc | thats my problem, lol | 07:18 |
| geoffmcc | i dont get it - the commands work fine in iptables. but if i rework before.rules to add :POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0] like i read in a tut it does not accept my -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE like iptables does | 07:19 |

| Curly_Q | If a sys admin uses SSH or tunneling what is all of the problems with logging as root with Secure Shell? | 07:22 |
| server_ | quit | 07:23 |
| Nisstyre65 | Curly_Q; because an attacker knows the username | 07:24 |
| geoffmcc | Curly_Q maybe this isnt exactly why but its one reason - check your auth log and see all the people trying to log into root. | 07:24 |
| Nisstyre65 | if you disable root login | 07:24 |
| Nisstyre65 | then they won't know your username | 07:24 |
| Curly_Q | Even with Drag & Drop sudo permissions is still denied. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#Drag%20&%20Drop%20sudo | 07:25 |
| Nisstyre65 | Curly_Q; if you're logged in as root you can do anything | 07:25 |
| Curly_Q | How can an attacker know the username behind a router and firewall on a private intranet? | 07:25 |
| Nisstyre65 | it's for server | 07:26 |
| Nisstyre65 | *servers | 07:26 |
| Zenker | where do i ask, no BEG for someone to add blender 2.49b to the repo's? or better still also 2.5 when its final is released at the end of April? | 07:26 |
| Avenegra | Curly_Q: root's always called | 07:26 |
| Avenegra | root | 07:26 |
| Nisstyre65 | yeah | 07:26 |
| Nisstyre65 | so if you disable it, then they can't use that | 07:26 |
| Nisstyre65 | they would need your username | 07:26 |

| ubottu | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS | 07:33 |
| Nisstyre65 | ^^^ is what you want Curly_Q | 07:33 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: my simplest suggestion, copy as a regular user, use the terminal and sudo to copy as a root to your required directory | 07:33 |
| geoffmcc | Curly_Q. What you need to do is login with a user in the admin group[ | 07:33 |

| nomad77 | sasayins: try lspci |grep -i vga | 07:35 |

| optimus_t | which wireless router i should prefer? | 07:35 |
| abhi_nav | rocket16, you there? | 07:35 |
| mtx_init | I am trying to get my cam to work at tinychat.com, it works fine with a program like cheese and fine with chatrt.com, but not with tinychat,. I have flash permissions set as well as being in the video group. any ideas? | 07:35 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: no no, I meant executing terminal commands. For example, if I told you do a "sudo mv /home/Curly_Q/copied_stuff /usr/share/apache2/default-site/" would you understand? | 07:35 |
| geoffmcc | Curly - say account curly has access to sudo su. you need to upload the file using your ssh program and then use the terminal to move the file to where it needs to go | 07:36 |
| Curly_Q | It looks like you are moving a file from /home/curly to Q/copied stuff /usr/share/apache2/default-site/ | 07:36 |
| harisund | Exactly. More importantly, I am using root permissions to do it Curly_Q | 07:36 |
| harisund | So to solve your problem, first copy from your Windows machine to your Linnux home directory of your regular user (don't worry about root at this point). | 07:37 |
| Curly_Q | Why not just be able to ssh copy and paste with a gui. It would make my work a lot easier. | 07:37 |
| yellabs | hello good people | 07:37 |
| abhi_nav | hello | 07:37 |
| Nisstyre65 | Curly_Q; you need to be able to mount a remote drive | 07:37 |
| Nisstyre65 | it's not that simple | 07:37 |
| sasayins | hello | 07:37 |
| geoffmcc | curly you could also enable root login but i would turn off right after you do what your doing | 07:37 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: Because by default no user has permissions to login remotely to add files into /usr/share | 07:37 |
| yellabs | what command would i use to show ( on the bash ) the partition table of a drive , with info etc | 07:38 |
| llutz | yellabs: sudo fdisk -l | 07:38 |
| geoffmcc | thats what i did before i realised i needed to sudo to move to where i needed to go | 07:38 |
| rocket16 | yellabs: Use System-Administration-Disk Utility | 07:38 |
| harisund | yellabs: you could try df also | 07:38 |
| llutz | df won't show a partition-table | 07:38 |
| yellabs | i need to make a printable version the likes of aida 16 , wich shows the drive, partitions an manufact number | 07:39 |
| harisund | My fdisk doesn't, my RAID setup is not seen by fdisk. df shows my "partitions" in the LVM | 07:39 |
| sensae | I'm trying to get BrickOS to work with my Lego Mindstorms kit. I've plugged in the infrared transmitter, but I can't figure out what TTY it's assigned. | 07:39 |
| Curly_Q | My old Red Hat 9 allowed ssh with no problem. This sudo thing is driving me bazonkas. | 07:39 |
| llutz | harisund: df shows space of"mounted filesystems" | 07:39 |
| harisund | I know | 07:39 |
| harisund | Anyway Curly_Q old Red Hat installations had a root account .. Ubuntu doesn't have a root account that's enabled by default | 07:40 |
| Curly_Q | I see. | 07:40 |
| ubutom | yes it has | 07:40 |
| ubutom | it just hasn't a set passwd | 07:40 |
| almoxarife | yes it does | 07:40 |
| yellabs | fdisk does show something, but nut brand of disk and serial number | 07:41 |
| Nisstyre65 | so theoretically one could change the root password on Ubuntu? | 07:41 |
| geoffmcc | yes | 07:41 |
| harisund | that's what I meant by "enabled by default" .. change to root and set yourself a password and you can do what you used to do Curly_Q | 07:41 |
| Curly_Q | I read this: sudo passwd root | 07:41 |
| Nisstyre65 | do you need root access to add sudoers? | 07:41 |
| llutz | yellabs: sudo hdparm -i /dev/sdX | 07:41 |
| harisund | Nisstyre65: yeah | 07:41 |
| geoffmcc | like i said b4- if not comphy with term can enable and then upload files- but i woukd def turn off right after | 07:41 |
| abhi_nav | Nisstyre65, yes | 07:42 |
| abhi_nav | !in | 07:42 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India | 07:42 |
| Nisstyre65 | so visudo EDITOR=gedit as root | 07:42 |
| almoxarife | Nisstyre65: why not open the file in gedit with root prv? | 07:43 |
| Curly_Q | Is there a GUI like Red Hat to add or delete users with Kubuntu such as Red Hat does? | 07:43 |
| Nisstyre65 | you mean like sudo? | 07:43 |
| almoxarife | Nisstyre65: gksu | 07:43 |
| llutz | almoxarife: it might break sudoers permissions, always use visudo | 07:43 |
| Nisstyre65 | that's what I was told | 07:44 |
| almoxarife | llutz: never broke anything here | 07:44 |
| harisund | visudo basically checks if your syntax is write and stuff like that | 07:44 |
| llutz | almoxarife: "might" and we'd seen some people whining about that last time here | 07:44 |
| harisund | llutz: if you know what you are doing you don't need to use visudo .. I have edited the \etc\sudoers file without visudo too | 07:44 |
| almoxarife | llutz: and I use the heck out of it, heck :) | 07:44 |
| Nisstyre65 | I prefer to be on the safe side | 07:45 |
| llutz | don't recmmend something else than visudo here, please | 07:45 |
| yellabs | how would i pipe these two command into one and then into text ? sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda1 and fdisk -l tips are welcome ! | 07:45 |
| llutz | yellabs: sudo hdparm -i /dev/sdX >file ; sudo fdisk -l >> file | 07:46 |
| yellabs | cool thanks so much ! | 07:46 |
| yellabs | into one file? | 07:46 |
| almoxarife | llutz: I take it back, I have not ever done password files with gedit, I don't want to infer the kind | 07:46 |
| llutz | file = filename | 07:46 |
| yellabs | ah | 07:47 |
| almoxarife | but I am taking this to my sandbox lucid and see if I can break it by doing it, what file was mentioned? | 07:47 |
| Nisstyre65 | you can do it with whatever editor you want | 07:47 |
| Curly_Q | What command would I use to add myself to sudoers for remote ssh work? | 07:48 |
| Nisstyre65 | !visudo | 07:48 |
| Curly_Q | I am in visudo now. | 07:48 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: Somehow I don't think that's going to help you. Your default account is already allowed sudo permissions, so I doubt adding it to sudoers is going to help you | 07:48 |
| yellabs | llutz , thank you so much, you have saved my day ! | 07:49 |

| JuanJose | what's up? | 07:50 |
| nitai | any way to unlock my iPhone from ubuntu? | 07:53 |
| Curly_Q | Even logging with ssh in root will not allow me to work with it. What I got from what has been said here is that I cannot ssh into any directory and gui copy and paste with Kubuntu. I have to copy files to a /usr folder and then sudo them to the directory. That is an unnecessary waste of time. | 07:53 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: If you login directly as root, you do have permissions to write into any folder | 07:54 |
| Curly_Q | I tried that Harisund and permission denied. | 07:54 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: What exactly do you mean "gui copy and paste" .. What GUI are you using exactly? | 07:54 |
| Curly_Q | I have been trying to use a Windows box to log into Ubuntu. I can log into root and see all of the files and and copy everything but not cut and paste from Windows to the linux box. Permission denied. | 07:55 |
| Curly_Q | Even in root. | 07:55 |
| harisund | ok hang on here for a second. First, "log into root and see all of the files" <-- How are you doing this? What is your scp client? | 07:55 |
| airtonix | Curly_Q, so when you say "windows box" and "copy files... people are going to assume you're using samba to do this. | 07:55 |
| Curly_Q | I can copy files from Linux but not copy from Win box to linux. | 07:56 |
| harisund | Are you mounting your Linux box as a new drive, like a D:\ or something? | 07:56 |
| Curly_Q | No XP pro Windows to linux with a SSH client. | 07:56 |
| harisund | First, I am hoping that SSH client has a SCP client somewhere.. for example, Putty is a SSH client and you can't do file transfers with putty | 07:56 |
| Curly_Q | It is over a LAN. | 07:57 |
| meowbuntu | ubuntu is ubuntu it is now far removed from its predesessor debian. | 07:57 |
| harisund | THat's ok, how are you copying files from Linux to Windows? Are you like clicking on files and dragging them and dropping them somewhere on your Windows box? Or are you typing out commands to do the moving? | 07:57 |
| meowbuntu | ubuntu is now built so much on top of itself that it is really its own creation. | 07:58 |
| Curly_Q | Dragging and dropping them to the ssh client to transfer them to Linux box. | 07:58 |

| Curly_Q | It is a permissions problem. | 07:59 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: There's something still missing in your description. Somehow I doubt it's a permissions problem | 07:59 |
| Curly_Q | I don't understand why being root the permissions is denied. | 07:59 |
| llutz | layer-8 problem | 08:00 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: SSH Tectia is the SCP client you are using, correct? | 08:00 |
| Curly_Q | Yes. | 08:00 |
| meowbuntu | there will be if i have a need or can provide help. | 08:00 |
| meowbuntu | llutz, i do not know | 08:00 |
| airtonix | meowbuntu, ok can i interest you in !ot ? | 08:01 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: May I offer a suggestion? I went to SSH Tectia's website, and it doesn't seem to be free. Download WinSCP, http://winscp.net/eng/download.php use it to login as root (and not as user) to your Linux machine .. you should see 2 file system trees side by side | 08:01 |

| meowbuntu | airtonix, i m not | 08:02 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: ah well .. just that I use winscp and I don't seem to have a problem transferring files as root to my Ubuntu box .. I don't know how Tectia works, so I can't really provide any good troubleshooting options | 08:02 |
| rob_p | Curly_Q: ...it's about as good if not better than most others out there... | 08:03 |
| meowbuntu | i made a general statment about ubuntu thats not oftopic. | 08:03 |

| Curly_Q | Tectia for years with Red Hat. | 08:04 |
| Curly_Q | Is WinSCP SSH? | 08:04 |
| kaziem | hi guys, I've got a problem | 08:04 |
| airtonix | kaziem, sounds bad. | 08:04 |
| harisund | WinSCP is a SCP client, so yes it uses SSH protocol | 08:05 |
| abhi_nav | ;) , airtonix | 08:05 |
| rob_p | Curly_Q: It supports SCP SFTP at least, and maybe other protocols. | 08:05 |
| Curly_Q | OK thanks I will give it a try. | 08:05 |
| kaziem | I have a dual monitor setup.. when I configure it so the external screen is on top of the other one, when I maximize windows on the lower one they are partially blocked by the gnome-panel | 08:05 |
| airtonix | kaziem, in the lower screen ? | 08:05 |
| kaziem | yea | 08:05 |
| airtonix | kaziem, and gnome panel is also there ? | 08:05 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: If Tectia was free, I would have tried to install it and seen how it is .. as it is not I really can't do anything other than suggest a free alternative | 08:05 |
| Curly_Q | Perhaps I need to set the correct protocol with Tectia. Maybe that is my problem. | 08:06 |
| kaziem | gnome-panel is only in the lower one yea | 08:06 |
| airtonix | kaziem, you have two choices... the first i cna run you through. the second i leave for you to research. | 08:06 |
| kaziem | applications/places panel | 08:06 |
| kaziem | ok airells_ | 08:06 |
| Curly_Q | I have the older ssh by Tectia and it does the same thing. Permission denied. Both do the same thing. | 08:06 |
| kaziem | airtonix =) | 08:06 |
| airtonix | kaziem, open gconf-editor | 08:06 |
| airtonix | kaziem, apps > panel > top levels | 08:07 |
| Curly_Q | Harisund, thanks for that advice. I appreciate it. | 08:07 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: Well all I can say is give the portable WinSCP, you won't have to install anything | 08:07 |
| harisund | Curly_Q: err I meant give the portable WinSCP a try .. it has a very intuitive user interface too | 08:07 |
| Curly_Q | I will try WinSCP. | 08:07 |
| Curly_Q | Thanks. | 08:08 |
| airtonix | kaziem, depending on how many gnome-panels you have on your screen... you might see a few entries under that tree nav location. | 08:08 |
| airtonix | kaziem, if you click on each panel_X (where x is 0 through to lots of numbers.) you'll see on the left that each one has an entry labeled : monitor. | 08:09 |
| kaziem | airtonix, there | 08:09 |
| kaziem | they can only be on one screen.. right? | 08:09 |
| airtonix | kaziem, each panel can only be on one screen at a time. | 08:10 |
| airtonix | kaziem, you see the "monitor" key im referring to in the right hand side ? | 08:10 |
| kaziem | yes | 08:10 |
| kaziem | i don't know how to set priority so it doesn't hide windows when maximized though =8 | 08:11 |
| riktking | having issues with a folder on my server, cannot write to it, how do i set the permissions? | 08:11 |
| airtonix | kaziem, you cant... i just move it to the other monitor. | 08:11 |
| riktking | i set samba up via right nautilus for the permission | 08:11 |
| Nisstyre65 | riktking; sudo chmod +r | 08:12 |
| riktking | cheers | 08:12 |
| kaziem | =( | 08:12 |
| Nisstyre65 | er | 08:12 |
| Nisstyre65 | w | 08:12 |
| Nisstyre65 | lol | 08:12 |
| kaziem | well thanks airtonix | 08:12 |
| Nisstyre65 | +w | 08:12 |
| FloodBot1 | Nisstyre65: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:12 |
| kaziem | at least on the top monitor windows maximize correctly | 08:12 |
| riktking | Nisstyre65, is it chmod +w then | 08:12 |
| Nisstyre65 | yes | 08:13 |
| Nisstyre65 | I'm tired | 08:13 |
| airtonix | kaziem, yes i think the issue is that on the bottom screen, the panel is in the middle of the 'virtual screen' so it does not properly modify the hints window frames get when they want to know the available screenspace they can maximise within | 08:14 |
| kaziem | do you think it's a compiz related feature? | 08:14 |
| riktking | Nisstyre65, how do i make it for all subfolders | 08:14 |
| airtonix | kaziem, no. i assume you are using nvidia ? | 08:15 |
| Nisstyre65 | riktking; try -R | 08:15 |
| kaziem | no, it's an intel chipset | 08:15 |
| airtonix | kaziem, with two vga ports ? | 08:16 |
| kaziem | just one | 08:16 |
| kaziem | it's a laptop | 08:16 |
| airtonix | kaziem, ah i see. but anyway i dont think gnome team has accounted properly for all multi monitor setups | 08:16 |
| kaziem | nods | 08:17 |
| riktking | Nisstyre65, got the same eror | 08:17 |
| airtonix | kaziem, same thing happens with me on my nvidia ion laptop | 08:17 |
| Mkools | Hi, when I installed dhcp-3 server it showed failed to start what must be the problem? | 08:17 |
| harisund | Mkools: could you provide more information? Perhaps post the /var/log/syslog somewhere? | 08:17 |
| Nisstyre65 | huh, so you're doing sudo chmod +w directoryhere -R | 08:17 |
| kaziem | maybe it's related with xinerama? | 08:18 |
| harisund | Mkools: Where did you see that failed to start? What kind of error message did you get? | 08:18 |
| riktking | ahh no | 08:18 |
| Nisstyre65 | -R means it's recursive so everything inside it gets affected | 08:18 |
| carl | hi. I installed 10.04 64-bit (previously running 9.10 64-bit just fine), and my laptop randomly crashes: screen goes black and laptop irresponsive. RSEIUB doesn't do anything. Can someone help me try to track this down please? | 08:18 |
| airtonix | kaziem, possibly that was my impression.. either that or lack of proper support by gnome or x11 | 08:19 |
| riktking | still issues | 08:19 |
| Nisstyre65 | what does it say? | 08:19 |
| Mkools | harisund: When I done sudo apt-get install dhcp3-server it showed start [failed]. | 08:19 |
| airtonix | !lucid | carl | 08:19 |
| ubottu | carl: 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 | 08:19 |
| harisund | Mkools: can you paste your /var/log/syslog file on pastebin or something? | 08:19 |
| riktking | when i try to create a folder in nautilus it says permission denied | 08:19 |
| carl | /j #ubuntu+1 | 08:19 |
| carl | oops sorry | 08:19 |
| Nisstyre65 | riktking; try useing the chown command | 08:20 |
| harisund | riktking: What exactly are you trying to do? | 08:20 |
| Zenker | i found a script that will change the background in a specific amount of time, how do i use it? here is the script http://pastebin.com/ttkafE87 | 08:20 |
| Nisstyre65 | he wanted to change write permissions on a directory | 08:21 |
| riktking | basically i have a server set up and im wanting to be able to copy files onto it via the network | 08:21 |
| Nisstyre65 | harisund | 08:21 |
| Mkools | harisund: It contains lots of data. | 08:21 |
| harisund | Mkools: are you familiar with pastebin? | 08:21 |
| riktking | but i cant seem to write to the server | 08:21 |
| riktking | via samba | 08:21 |
| Mkools | harisund: no | 08:21 |
| meowbuntu | !ask | 08:21 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 08:21 |
| riktking | and it has to be samba as there are windows pc's that have to access it | 08:22 |
| sevian | aloha | 08:22 |
| harisund | riktking: That's ok. When you are mounting the drive on Windows, you mount it as a user on your Linux box right? Does that user have write permissions within Linux? | 08:22 |
| riktking | no the drive is automounted on the server | 08:23 |
| harisund | riktking: oh this is an external drive? | 08:23 |
| riktking | harisund, its a 2nd hdd | 08:23 |
| harisund | http://paste.ubuntu.com/ Mkools Copy and paste your /var/log/syslog file into this website and paste the link here | 08:23 |
| peterbjerg | hello :-) | 08:23 |
| riktking | harisund, i just want it to be read/write for anyone on our network | 08:23 |
| n3f | hi everyone | 08:24 |
| minusvirus | hello | 08:24 |
| abhi_nav | hi | 08:24 |
| harisund | riktking: Ok ... it might be a samba thing that you might have to edit in /etc/smb.conf rather than user permissions on Linux .. that's what I am trying to figure out | 08:24 |
| peterbjerg | I have trouble installing/configuring openldap | 08:24 |
| riktking | harisund, ok | 08:24 |
| peterbjerg | is there anyone with experience | 08:24 |
| abhi_nav | !details | peterbjerg | 08:24 |
| ubottu | peterbjerg: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 08:24 |
| iceroot | peterbjerg: #slapd | 08:24 |
| n3f | would like ask if it's possible to set up my own domain name server in ubuntu? that is, i will not be having to pay any third party hosting site? | 08:25 |
| iceroot | peterbjerg: installation = sudo apt-get install slapd | 08:25 |
| peterbjerg | oki I will try #slapd | 08:25 |
| llutz | n3f: you can | 08:25 |
| harisund | riktking: The second hdd, how is it mounted on the Linux machine? As in, in what directory? | 08:25 |
| riktking | harisund, /media/STORAGE is where its mounted | 08:25 |
| harisund | riktking: ah I was afraid of that. So basically it's like an external storage, else it wouldn't have been mounted into /media | 08:26 |
| Nisstyre65 | riktking; try this... go to smb.conf | 08:26 |
| riktking | harisund, do i have to change the automount then | 08:26 |
| n3f | llutz, wow really? in that case is there any disadvantages in terms of speed compared to let others host my site? | 08:26 |
| Nisstyre65 | and change security = user to security = share | 08:26 |
| peterbjerg | the problem is that I cant get the slapd server up and running, I have the structure in place, but i can't figure out how to configure, but I will try #slapd if there isn't anyone with experience | 08:26 |
| llutz | n3f: depends on your bandwidth to the internet | 08:27 |
| n3f | llutz, i'm reading http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=236093, is the right way? | 08:27 |
| blackrock | What's a quality DVD ripper around ? | 08:27 |
| riktking | Nisstyre65, is that gksudo /etc/smb.comf | 08:27 |
| Nisstyre65 | yeah | 08:27 |
| Nisstyre65 | should be | 08:27 |
| harisund | riktking: gksudo gedit /etc/smb.conf | 08:27 |
| Nisstyre65 | that basically allows anyone to access the shares | 08:27 |
| riktking | harisund, Nisstyre65 is that on the server | 08:28 |
| Nisstyre65 | yes | 08:28 |
| Nisstyre65 | it might not do anything | 08:28 |
| Nisstyre65 | but it might work | 08:28 |
| abhi_nav | !server | n3f | 08:28 |
| ubottu | n3f: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 8.04. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ and https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/index.html - Use the #ubuntu-server channel for support | 08:28 |
| riktking | its blank | 08:28 |
| Nisstyre65 | : O | 08:28 |
| Nisstyre65 | /etc/samba/smb.conf | 08:29 |
| Nisstyre65 | try that | 08:29 |
| n3f | abhi_nav, that's cool. but can I use the desktop edition instead? | 08:29 |
| llutz | n3f: sry don't have www here. | 08:29 |
| riktking | ok got it | 08:29 |
| Nisstyre65 | okay | 08:29 |
| Nisstyre65 | there should also be a section about public shares | 08:29 |
| abhi_nav | n3f: yah you can: also you can have gui and everything of desktop version into server version | 08:29 |
| peterbjerg | ok, there isn't anyone in a channel called slapd, can anyone assiste with configuring slapd ? | 08:29 |
| n3f | llutz, it's cool, i'll google around :) | 08:29 |
| Nisstyre65 | you should be able to edit what people can access riktking | 08:30 |
| n3f | abhi_nav, nice. thank you for the info :) | 08:30 |
| abhi_nav | n3f, :D | 08:30 |
| Nisstyre65 | riktking; http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Samba#Share_files_for_your_LAN_without_user_and_password | 08:30 |
| riktking | thanks Nisstyre65 | 08:30 |
| n3f | abhi_nav, hmmm do you have a howto for that? :) | 08:30 |
| itlinux | Please tell me how to install Ubuntu on Branded PC Wearnes Premiere 6845l, because using XP is my last opton, that I know it will work fine. Original OS is Win 98. Thank you | 08:31 |
| abhi_nav | read that link n3f | 08:31 |
| abhi_nav | how to for what?, n3f ? | 08:31 |
| n3f | abhi_nav, using my desktop edition as a dns.. | 08:31 |
| riktking | Nisstyre65, do i have to restart samba now? | 08:31 |
| abhi_nav | n3f, your most question wll be solved by ubuntu forum, cummunity documentation and wiki help in google. always remember to google first. ;) | 08:32 |
| rob_p | n3f: Why bog down a server box with all the unnecessary things that a desktop version provides. A server should not generally have a gui. Save the resources for the tasks the server is designed for. Just a friendly suggestion. | 08:32 |
| Zenker | i found a script that will change the background in a specific amount of time, how do i use it? oh and here is the script http://pastebin.com/ttkafE87 just in case | 08:32 |
| Nisstyre65 | yes riktking /etc/init.d/ | 08:32 |
| abhi_nav | n3f, i dont know any such how to. but you search in google, forum wiki and commuity documetation | 08:32 |
| n3f | rob_p, because i will do the coding in my desktop edition box as well... | 08:33 |
| Nisstyre65 | so /etc/init.d/samba restart | 08:33 |
| n3f | abhi_nav, okay, it's cool. thanks, i'll do it :) | 08:33 |
| llutz | n3f: look at howtoforge or forums/wiki for a bind9 tutorial, it should help you | 08:33 |
| abhi_nav | n3f: hmm welcome :D | 08:33 |
| harisund | Zenker: I am guessing you execute the script in a terminal | 08:33 |
| n3f | llutz, yah, i got here a howto and it starts off installing bind | 08:33 |
| harisund | n3f: That's what you wanted, right? | 08:34 |
| rob_p | n3f: If you want to run your own nameserver, at a minimum you will need a static, publicly routeable IP address provided by your ISP. Are you going to provide authoritative name services for a domain(s)? | 08:34 |

| n3f | rob_p, ah no, i want it to be available on the internet. would there be any way of doing it? like have a automated application to update everytime my IP changes? | 08:38 |
| almoxarife | nice | 08:38 |
| Nisstyre65 | n3f; look into dynDNS and no-ip | 08:38 |
| harisund | Mkools: You need to configure DHCPD first before you can run it. It says it has not been configured to run on an any interface | 08:38 |
| === cece is now known as CeCe | ||
| Zenker | almoxarife ok, then what do i do, it says something about makin it executable? | 08:39 |
| n3f | Nisstyre65, yep, but can I use it for my own dns? | 08:39 |
| Nisstyre65 | I'm not totally sure | 08:39 |
| Mkools | harisund: Can you elaborate a little more. | 08:39 |
| Nisstyre65 | but you can use either of those to update your ip | 08:39 |
| harisund | n3f: You are asking the wrong question - What you want is your computer to be assigned a host name by someone so you can access it from anywhere, right? | 08:39 |
| Nisstyre65 | or rather your hostname | 08:39 |
| bambang | hi | 08:39 |
| rob_p | n3f: As far as I know, the root servers need an IP address to point to. DNS propogation times do not allow for rapidly changing IPs at the nameserver. It just won't work unless you have a static IP. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news... | 08:39 |
| Mkools | or can provide a link where I can read more about it. | 08:39 |
| harisund | Mkools: why are you installing a dhcp server? | 08:40 |
| harisund | Mkools: Are you trying to use your Ubuntu box as a router or something? | 08:40 |
| Mkools | Because I want to create my own DNS server. | 08:40 |
| Nisstyre65 | Mkools; you should consider getting a VPS | 08:40 |
| Mkools | in my college network, | 08:41 |
| Nisstyre65 | linode is only like 20 bucks a month for the cheapest package | 08:41 |
| harisund | ok ... (what's with everyone's fascination with DNS server these days) ... Mkools so I am guessing your computer has 2 interfaces, like an eth0 and eth1? | 08:41 |
| rob_p | n3f: It can take several hours for the root servers to sync up to a changed IP at your side. It just doesn't make sense to use anyting but a static IP. | 08:41 |
| n3f | harisund, no not that. i want my computer to be the one assigning domain name to my IP. I don't know if that's how to explain it. | 08:41 |
| Nisstyre65 | so you want an internal DNS server | 08:42 |
| harisund | n3f: You could do that locally, but unless you let one of the top level DNS servers know it's not going to be of any help (I think -- someone correct me if I am wrong) | 08:42 |
| n3f | ^^ right | 08:42 |
| harisund | Nisstyre65: that's what I think he wants | 08:42 |
| Nisstyre65 | okay simple | 08:42 |
| Nisstyre65 | just configure the router to give you a static ip | 08:42 |
| Mkools | harisund: Does creating a DNS network will help in creating and deploying a web application? | 08:43 |
| harisund | Mkools: You need to tell your dhcp server on which connection it needs to listen to clients | 08:43 |
| harisund | Mkools: What kind of web application? Are there many clients on the network, or is this something you are testing internally? | 08:43 |
| Mkools | It's just a small one you can consider it as test. | 08:44 |
| n3f | Nisstyre65, it's not just inside a lan. I would want it to be available on the internet as well. | 08:44 |
| harisund | n3f: For the internet you can't be responsible, which is where services like DynDNS or other dynamic DNS services come into picture .. you can only be responsible for your own internal, local LAN | 08:44 |
| Nisstyre65 | in that case...you should get a static ip from your ISP or pay for a server | 08:44 |
| harisund | Nisstyre65: or, use no-ip or equivalents :D | 08:45 |
| Mkools | harisund: My ideas are similar to n3f. | 08:45 |
| Nisstyre65 | yeah | 08:45 |
| llutz | harisund: read rob_p why no-ip/dyndns isn't a good idea | 08:45 |
| Mkools | Nisstryre65: My college has one can I use it. | 08:45 |
| Nisstyre65 | no-ip is pretty cool | 08:45 |
| === Memphisau is now known as Memphis | ||
| harisund | llutz: When you don't have a static IP there's not much else option for what no-ip/dyndns does | 08:46 |
| llutz | harisund: true, but not for public dns | 08:46 |
| almoxarife | Zenker: now readup on turning that txt file into a executable script,http://www.linuxconfig.org/Bash_scripting_Tutorial | 08:46 |
| Mkools | Nisstyre65: Can you tell me more about no-ip | 08:46 |
| Nisstyre65 | I've never used it personally | 08:46 |
| Nisstyre65 | but it gives you a hostname | 08:47 |
| harisund | llutz: /shrug, I have no problems with no-ip, and I have seen it propogate changes pretty quickly and the few people I have advocated it to seem to be happy | 08:47 |
| llutz | harisund: that's not the point, those services work fine. but if you want to have your own dns-server it will fail | 08:47 |
| llutz | (mostlikely) | 08:47 |
| Zenker | almoxarife i think i need to use the chmod command but i dont know what modifiers to use | 08:47 |
| Nisstyre65 | chmod +x script.sh | 08:48 |
| harisund | ah you are talking about both "your own dns-server" and "dynamic dns" .. then yeah you are right | 08:48 |
| Mkools | harisund: My network connection shows Auto eth0 and Auto eth3 | 08:48 |
| llutz | harisund: that's we were talking about all the time :) | 08:48 |
| harisund | llutz: I thought we were suggesting n3f to not use a personal dns server at all but all right, I stand corrected, sorry | 08:48 |
| rob_p | harisund: Last time I checked, the root servers required an IP, not a hostname. So you would have to update the root servers with your change, and then wait for the change to propagate. It cant take hours... | 08:48 |
| rob_p | harisund: *can* | 08:49 |
| almoxarife | Zenker: Nisstyre65: chmod +x script.sh <-thnks :) | 08:49 |
| harisund | rob_p: They still require IP addresses, and yes, they could take a while I agree | 08:49 |
| Zenker | ahh ok ill give it a go, thanx for helping :) | 08:49 |
| n3f | so llutz, it is imposiible to setup up my machine into a DNS with a dynamic IP? | 08:50 |
| Nisstyre65 | basically | 08:50 |
| llutz | n3f: seems to be | 08:50 |
| harisund | n3f: Even if it is remotely possible, simply not worth trouble imo | 08:50 |
| Mkools | harisund: Please reply. | 08:51 |
| JEEB | hey, how could you just get the list of dependencies for some app from aptitude instead of installing it? | 08:51 |
| JEEB | (build-deps I mean) | 08:51 |
| gregg | hi all - just installed Xubuntu, i'm normally a kde user, and I miss the function in the apps menu that lets me type the name of an app to get to it... is there an xfce menu alternative that will let me do something like that? (yes, I also asked in #xubuntu but there's more activity in here :) ) | 08:51 |
| harisund | Mkools: What did I miss? | 08:51 |
| llutz | JEEB: use "apt-cache depends package" | 08:51 |
| n3f | getting an internet connection here that offers static IP is quite costly. :( | 08:51 |
| Mkools | harisund: : My network connection shows Auto eth0 and Auto eth3 | 08:52 |
| JEEB | llutz, thanks but yeah, that's not exactly the build-deps ^^; | 08:52 |
| llutz | n3f: maybe a vps will be cheaper / more flexible | 08:52 |
| harisund | Mkools: oh ok that .. Find out which one is connected to the internet and which one is connected to your private network, and then setup dhcp3d to listen on the private interface | 08:52 |
| llutz | JEEB: sorry havnt seen your 2nd line | 08:52 |
| JEEB | no problem | 08:52 |
| JEEB | my bad for not putting it on the first line | 08:53 |
| n3f | llutz, virtual server? does that offer same functionality with that of a dns? | 08:53 |
| llutz | n3f: you can run any service you like on it, and it has static-ip | 08:53 |
| Nisstyre65 | virtual private server is just another way of hosting a server | 08:53 |
| M0DCM_Dave | Hi, can someone tell me if the Intel GMA500 is supported in 10.04? | 08:54 |
| Nisstyre65 | linode is a good one | 08:54 |
| Nisstyre65 | or slicehost | 08:54 |
| harisund | wrong channel M0DCM_Dave go to #ubuntu+1 | 08:54 |
| M0DCM_Dave | cheers | 08:54 |
| rob_p | harisund: I don't think there's an automated way of updating the root with any of the dynamic DNS services out there. And I'm quite sure that if you cobbled your own automated way to update it, the powers that be would not be too happy with you constantly making changes. Authoritative nameservers usually go years without being changed. Too many, "spurius" changes would definitely attract the wrong attention. | 08:54 |
| it-admin | #jakarta | 08:54 |
| Mkools | harisund: I read in ubuntu documents that eth0 is generally is interface to Internet. Isn't it? | 08:55 |
| harisund | rob_p: True. I use ZoneEdit and a cron job to update through a wget command .. and I check if there's a change from my previous hostname. Haven't had problems for around 5 years now (which reminds me, my hostname's expiring :(.. | 08:56 |
| harisund | Mkools: that depends on your machine defaults .. most computers have one interface, which defaults to eth0 and that's what they use. Is that the case on your machine? | 08:57 |
| rob_p | harisund: Perhaps your IP doesn't change all that often. If that's the case, you're lucky! :-) | 08:57 |
| Mkools | harisund: Can you tell how to check it? | 08:57 |
| harisund | Mkools: hmmm interesting question.. I think route tells you that | 08:57 |
| Slart | Got a little project.. I would like to have a "cache" of some websites I use information from often. The cache would be used when the internet connection isn't working for some reason.. I don't need history but at the same time I don't want it cleared when I loose my internet connection. Any hints? suggestions for software? | 08:58 |
| Mkools | harisund: route is command I think? | 08:58 |
| harisund | Mkools: yeah "route" on the terminal, sorry | 08:58 |

| Mkools | sorry | 09:03 |
| harisund | Tm_T: I am not continuing any discussion . .. Mkools looks like eth0 is not connected to the internet then, probably eth3 is | 09:03 |
| n3f | llutz, ouch i have to buy vps? | 09:04 |
| llutz | n3f: rent | 09:04 |
| Mkools | harisund: What about our discussion? | 09:05 |
| === sejuk is now known as Bagus | ||
| n3f | llutz, i thought it comes free in ubuntu.. | 09:05 |
| obiwan_ | morning | 09:05 |
| harisund | Mkools: I am not really sure how far I can help. All I can suggest is this - Find out which ethernet connection is responsible for internet, which one for private LAN. Setup your dhcpd to listen on the private LAN interface | 09:05 |
| judith_ | ola | 09:06 |
| llutz | n3f: vps = virtual private server, a hosting service you have to pay for. | 09:06 |
| obiwan_ | hola judith_ , esto es un canal en ingles, si quieres uno español usa #ubuntu-es | 09:06 |
| llutz | Mkools: "route -n" destination 0.0.0.0 | 09:06 |
| obiwan_ | too l8 lawl xD | 09:06 |
| llutz | Mkools: that line shows your external interface | 09:06 |
| harisund | Mkools: Though if you are planning on setting up DNS nad DHCP services I would recommend looking into dnsmasq, that's a nice little package that does both easily | 09:06 |
| Mkools | harisund: ok | 09:07 |
| MarkProffitt | I have a bit of a weird problem. Sound works for Audacity and on boot up but not for anything else. | 09:07 |
| Mkools | llutz: It is showing interface as eth3 | 09:08 |
| Haegin | Hi, my locale on my server is set to en_NZ and I want to change it system wide to en_GB - how do I do this? | 09:10 |
| Mkools | llutz: What's your opinion? | 09:11 |
| llutz | Mkools: ? | 09:11 |
| MATSUYAMA | Ciao a tutto il chan #ubuntu | 09:11 |
| obiwan_ | export language=en_NZ in every open terminal && nano -w .bashrc search language and edit it there too | 09:12 |
| obiwan_ | it's not a really good solution but it'll work | 09:12 |
| Mkools | route -n is showing iface as eth3 | 09:12 |
| llutz | Mkools: i didn't follow, just pointed outva way to find your ext-if | 09:12 |
| Haegin | obiwan_: yeah, I'm hoping to change it properly rather than just change it in every terminal I open. Also I use zsh. | 09:12 |
| Mkools | llutz: don't got you. | 09:13 |
| obiwan_ | Haegin: you don't have to change it in every terminal, just in the .bashrc or analog zsh config file, in-terminal export is just for current terms, next ones will open well | 09:13 |
| M0DCM_Dave | No one is helping me in the other room | 09:13 |
| obiwan_ | but anyway, i guess there's a better way to do it | 09:14 |
| Haegin | obiwan_: aye, but what about login shells that don't source .bashrc? I'm trying to find the correct place to set it (where it currently sets it to en_NZ) | 09:14 |
| llutz | Haegin: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales | 09:14 |
| Haegin | llutz: thanks | 09:15 |
| sanderj | Do anyone know where global proxy settings is?.. when I do: lynx localhost I get access denied, and hostname says it's from another internal proxy server. | 09:15 |
| M0DCM_Dave | Is this room for 9.10 or 10.04? | 09:16 |
| izmanromli | M0DCM_Dave: what are you trying to solve? | 09:16 |
| Haegin | llutz: ok, that regenerated all the locales but didn't let me pick GB over NZ - is that normal? | 09:16 |
| M0DCM_Dave | getting the Intel GMA500 to work in 10.04 | 09:16 |
| iceroot | M0DCM_Dave: its for every ubuntu-version which is still supported and NOT alpha/beta, so no 10.04 | 09:16 |
| M0DCM_Dave | I have it working in 9.10 | 09:16 |
| iceroot | M0DCM_Dave: /join #ubuntu+1 | 09:16 |
| harisund | iceroot: I already suggested him that, poor fellow couldn't get any help there | 09:16 |
| M0DCM_Dave | ahh, no worries | 09:16 |
| llutz | Haegin: hrm, no. it should ask for the locales you want to install and in 2nd step the systemwide setting | 09:16 |
| izmanromli | M0DCM_Dave: all Ubuntu | 09:16 |
| MarkProffitt | Audacity is is ALSA for sound and it works. I am thinking the other things are using something else. How do I change it? | 09:17 |
| Haegin | llutz: ok, I'll have a poke around | 09:17 |
| obiwan_ | hey thanks llutz for the comm :) | 09:18 |
| MarkProffitt | How do I set the default audio output device? | 09:19 |
| obiwan_ | gnome-volume-controller | 09:20 |
| obiwan_ | sry *control | 09:20 |
| Zenker | almoxarife i give up it just changes to a solid blue background, ive tired /home/lappie/Pictures/Backgrounds and leaving the $home/home/lappie/Pictures/Backgrounds like this, idk, i need to act learn about scripting 1st i guess | 09:22 |
| MarkProffitt | obiwan, that doesn't seem to work. The only thing that is using the proper settings is Audacity and that can choose which to use. | 09:22 |
| harisund | Zenker: Are you still working on that background changing script? | 09:22 |
| Zenker | harishund i was im giving up i think for now | 09:23 |
| harisund | hmm I would suggest not putting it in a script and trying it out manually to see where the prblem is happening | 09:23 |
| harisund | Then script-ify it .. basically there's one line that's the core of the script. gconftool-2 ... try that line seperately | 09:23 |
| scl | HI | 09:24 |
| scl | 有没有中国人啊?? | 09:24 |
| harisund | If you have a little more patience and want to try Zenker I can walk you through it. Otherwise no big deal :) | 09:24 |
| obiwan_ | hmm MarkProffitt sudo service alsa-utils restart && sudo service pulseaudio restart | 09:24 |
| === RaNdY is now known as Guest9330 | ||
| obiwan_ | try that maybe | 09:24 |
| obiwan_ | it'll just restart your mixer | 09:24 |
| Zenker | i also tried to duplicate the cosmos one with no luck, it just stays on the same background, heh at least it act shows one of the pics i wanted | 09:25 |
| harisund | obiwan_: Can you do sudo service pulseaudio restart? It gave me a "PulseAudio is user-configured" or such error :( | 09:25 |
| MarkProffitt | obiwan, its worht a try | 09:25 |
| Zenker | harishund sure ill give it a go again :) | 09:25 |
| harisund | Ok let's see, send me the link to your script again? | 09:25 |
| kinja-sheep | !info drapes | Zenker | 09:25 |
| ubottu | Zenker: drapes (source: drapes): a desktop wallpaper management application for the GNOME desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.2-3.1 (karmic), package size 177 kB, installed size 2328 kB | 09:25 |
| frosty_ | what will happen if i just install ubuntu now on this windows vista machine on another hard drive? | 09:25 |
| frosty_ | will grub show the windows install automatically? | 09:26 |
| Zenker | kinja-sheep i saw drapes, i also saw it was terribly buggy, unless its been fixed since? | 09:26 |
| obiwan_ | uhmm harisund strange thing to me hehe, but sercies can only run as root | 09:26 |
| kinja-sheep | Zenker: I don't know. I haven't used drapes for more than a year. Something I thought you might want to be aware of. | 09:26 |
| Zenker | i wish i could just use bionix | 09:26 |
| stevecam | why was pulseaudio choose to be used with ubuntu? | 09:27 |
| theadmin | stevecam: And why not? :/ | 09:27 |
| obiwan_ | because it's a pretty fresh server isn't it? | 09:27 |
| theadmin | I think it's more a question to debian guys then Ubuntu people | 09:27 |
| obiwan_ | it was lately very enhanced | 09:27 |
| stevecam | oh, so it was a debian thing as well? | 09:27 |
| obiwan_ | thing is it was so enhanced that many things still don't work as they should hehe | 09:28 |
| theadmin | AFAIK yes | 09:28 |
| Arti | Hi | 09:28 |
| === Darky is now known as zz_Darky | ||
| stevecam | yeah, ive noticed, i was trying to play zsnes earlier and the sound was terrible | 09:28 |
| MarkProffitt | obiwan, it restarted but I still have the same problem. I can hear audio from Audacity but not from Rythmbox or anything else | 09:28 |
| harisund | Or because Shuttleworth said so, that seems to be the popular thing these days. Anyway it's in Ubuntu, and you always have the option of switching to some other sound server, I guess. In any case, Ubuntu's version of PulseAudio sucks and has a lot of PA services crippled | 09:28 |
| obiwan_ | yeah, i keep having some sound problems, hope they get solved upon lucid hehe | 09:28 |
| harisund | If you go to the #pulseaudio channel and ask for help and say you are using #ubuntu, they get pissed off lol | 09:28 |
| === zz_Darky is now known as Darky | ||
| stevecam | really? why is that? | 09:29 |
| obscurant1st | which is a good cd/dvd writer application for ubuntu? it should support wrting bootable cd/dvds? | 09:29 |
| harisund | obscurant1st: The default brasero works fine | 09:29 |
| Zenker | i guess the best way to find out if it works or not is to install it huh | 09:29 |
| theadmin | harisund: Brasero is HORRIBLE, it's buggy as hell | 09:30 |
| Arti | i have a problem with copying files from home to another partition with image files large than 4 gigas,it gives me the report that is to large to copy,how can i solve this problem | 09:30 |
| MarkProffitt | obiwan, sound is working from hw:0,0 I think the system in general is not using that | 09:30 |
| harisund | stevecam: http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/UbuntuBugs check this page out | 09:30 |
| obiwan_ | MarkProffitt: then you need help from another guy, i'm know little about it | 09:30 |
| obscurant1st | harisund, thx | 09:30 |

| obiwan_ | np MarkProffitt hope you solve it soon | 09:30 |
| MarkProffitt | anyone else? | 09:30 |
| llutz | Arti: vfat has a filesize limit of 4gb | 09:31 |
| harisund | stevecam: did you check that page out? You will know why the pulseaudio guys don't like Ubuntu | 09:31 |
| Arti | llutz yes fat partition | 09:31 |
| stevecam | harisund, so the problem is with ubuntu? | 09:31 |
| llutz | Arti: no way to copy files larger 4GB, or split them | 09:32 |

| Arti | llutz is it posible to solve this somehow | 09:32 |
| Zenker | ok i installed drapes, now where is it? rofl | 09:32 |
| stevecam | well, i have only noticed it in firefox occasionally, zsnes and wine apps | 09:32 |

| kinja-sheep | shishir: Install it. Not everybody have a need for samba. | 09:33 |
| llutz | Arti: split the files or use different filesystem | 09:34 |
| Zenker | harishund i didnt write the script i found it in ubuntu forums, i think its not workin because im not getting the location of the pics right | 09:34 |
| Arti | llutz ok,i will try to convert to ntfs my partition | 09:34 |
| harisund | Zenker: let's do one thing. Paste me the location of the script again | 09:34 |
| shishir | kinja-sheep which kind of installation you are talking about | 09:34 |
| stevecam | shishir, the more features that are enabled by default the less secure a system is | 09:35 |
| shishir | stevecam ok | 09:35 |
| === Bananaburger` is now known as Bananaburger | ||
| kinja-sheep | shishir: You should be prompted with "Install samba" first when you attempt to do file-sharing. | 09:35 |

| shishir | kinja-sheep not prompted like "install smaba" only one error came which is "sharing service is not installed | 09:36 |

| harisund | Zenker: Ok first where are your pictures stored? As in in which directory? | 09:37 |
| kinja-sheep | shishir: Oh okay. You will want to install samba. | 09:37 |
| llutz | theadmin: so you prefer cli: "cdrdao copy ..." | 09:37 |
| shishir | kinja-sheep yes | 09:37 |
| Zenker | in the Pictures folder /home/lappie/Pictures | 09:37 |
| stevecam | shishir, just install samba, do you know how? | 09:37 |
| theadmin | llutz: cdrdao? Never knew this one *goes reading the manpage* | 09:37 |
| harisund | Zenker: And there are nothing but pictures in that folder, correct? Like, absolutely nothing but pictures ? | 09:38 |
| Zenker | harishund no thers some folders in it as well | 09:38 |
| harisund | Zenker: Now that's a problem. This script assumes there's nothing but pictures in that folder. | 09:38 |
| theadmin | llutz: Hm, nice thing. | 09:38 |
| Zenker | harishund ahh i see :) | 09:39 |
| harisund | newbkgrnd="$(ls $pixdir | shuf -n1)" <--- Zenker this line is what decides what gets posted as the background | 09:39 |

| theadmin | Hm, exit seems to take anything as arguments, try: "exit o_O", for instance. Weird :/ | 09:44 |
| Curly_Q | Harisund, I appreciate your help earlier. Geoffmcc worked out my problem. I can now ssh into the directory from a remote location. | 09:44 |
| harisund | Ah good to know Curly_Q | 09:44 |
| theadmin | How do i MD5 a CD? | 09:45 |
| llutz | theadmin: problem is to find something parsing "o_O" correct as exit-code | 09:45 |
| harisund | theadmin: md5sum <name of iso> | 09:45 |
| theadmin | harisund: Not ISO, a burned CD. I need to verify it burned properly. | 09:45 |
| kinja-sheep | theadmin: md5sum /dev/dvd ? | 09:45 |
| harisund | ah that I do not know, you can normally ask the application to check it for you after it's burnt, but after that I do not know | 09:45 |
| theadmin | kinja-sheep: Hm, that simple? lol | 09:45 |
| kinja-sheep | theadmin: Why not? Linux is simple. :P | 09:47 |

| Xbert | I did and apt-get upgrade which crashed on 10.4, I ran the upgrade again and it completed but now I get the MOTD diplayed twice on login and one MOTD stiill shows 38 updates to do, anyone have any idea how to fix this? | 09:50 |
| === Ghost is now known as Guest48272 | ||
| coz_ | Xbert, you can try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 09:51 |
| harisund | Zenker: Try this command .. Go to "cd /home/lappie/Pictures/rtbackground" and execute this command "gconftool-2 -t string -s /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename $(ls | shuf -n1)" without the quotes and see if it changes your desktop background | 09:51 |
| Xbert | coz_ i've done that, I think the problem is with the MOTD there system it showing all updates install | 09:52 |
| coz_ | mmm | 09:52 |

| __Techie__ | im having USB problems, my mouse does not work after boot and my system continuily spans, unable to unumerate device on port... to the syslog, this behaviour stops when i change my onboard USB to 1.1 | 09:53 |
| harisund | nikhil_: In 9.10 you can add PPAs with a command, you don't need to do it manually | 09:53 |
| Zenker | harishund it says Error while parsing options: Unknown option -2. | 09:53 |
| nikhil_ | harisund: 9.04 -- and doing it manually is fine, just need to know how to get the key | 09:53 |
| harisund | Zenker: You left a space after gconftool | 09:54 |
| airtonix | nikhil_, if you read the ppa page you will see links to instructions | 09:54 |
| kinja-sheep | nikhil_: "sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com R4ND0MC0D3" | 09:54 |
| nikhil_ | kinja-sheep: random code being... | 09:55 |
| Zenker | harishund ahh i see, now it says Value type is only relevant when setting a value | 09:55 |
| airtonix | nikhil_, see my last message | 09:55 |
| kinja-sheep | nikhil_: Random code being random code. Look at PPA Instruction or airtonix's last message. | 09:55 |
| nikhil_ | thanks guys | 09:55 |
| harisund | zenlunatic: ok that's interesting, that means we are not setting a value, which is a problem because we need to set a value. so one sec let me make sure I am doing this right | 09:55 |
| h4writer | hi, I just upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 beta, but my laptop doesnn't start anymore. It keeps giving me the splashscreen and nothing is going on anymore. (It doesn't hangs, because the dots are still changing color) | 09:55 |

| harisund | Zenker: My message was for you sorry | 09:56 |
| Zenker | harisund oh, i didnt space after string ok that changed the background to the blue screen | 09:56 |
| harisund | Zenker: Now run the exact same command again and see if it changes anything | 09:56 |
| Zenker | harishund nope | 09:57 |
| nikhil_ | is there any reason why lxde only has a ppa for hardy and gutsy...not jaunty? | 09:57 |
| harisund | Zenker: Run it a couple of times. How many images do you have? | 09:57 |
| stevecam | someone just gave me a 21.6" LCD screen for nothing | 09:57 |
| llutz | nikhil_: it is in the repos since jaunty (afaik) | 09:57 |
| stevecam | im pretty happy | 09:57 |
| Zenker | harisund 4 and also i just realized i still have compiz running, i just disabled it to make sure | 09:57 |
| harisund | Zenker: Here's what's happening. The "ls" lists all the files, and the "shuf" part chooses one randomly. So the more you have, the more the variety else chances are the same image got chosen again. | 09:58 |
| h4writer | !airtonix yeah I know it is unstable, but was hoping on some advance to get it fixed. (Problem with the new splash is I can't see if an error occured :() | 09:58 |

| harisund | Zenker or if you want a simpler solution run gconftool-2 -t string -s /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename $(ls | shuf -n1)" | 10:00 |
| kinja-sheep | harisund: Perhaps ls ~/full/path for his script? | 10:01 |

| Diverdude | I am using sshfs to mount a remote filesystem...But after quite short time, like 2 hours or so i am being disconnected probably due to some timeout. This is extremely annoying. Is there any way i can set up sshfs to stay connected until i turn of my computer or manually disconnect/unmount the mounted filesystem? | 10:02 |
| Zenker | harisund nope no change it is changing the background, but its not choosing a background file i think | 10:02 |
| kinja-sheep | Diverdude: Try adding "ServerAliveInterval 120" to ~/.ssh/config -- It may answer your question. | 10:02 |
| harisund | Zenker: Is it changing the background to a file within the directory? | 10:03 |
| Diverdude | kinja-sheep, hmm i dont even seem to have a ~/.ssh/config file | 10:03 |
| kinja-sheep | Diverdude: Create one. | 10:03 |
| Zenker | harisund no i mean ive gone to the background changer (right click change background) a couple of times 2 and it does change but just to a solid color | 10:04 |
| Zenker | after i run the command | 10:04 |

| === enzotib_ is now known as enzotib | ||

| llutz | codeswing: aptitude install open.app | 10:05 |
| kinja-sheep | Zenker: Meh. Killing and rejuvenate nautilus may make it work after the script. | 10:05 |
| Diverdude | kinja-sheep, ok...i did it...hope it works now thenn | 10:05 |
| erry_ | Does anyone have xorg.conf.failsafe | 10:06 |
| harisund | Zenker: that, or don't keep a solid color. Choose another picture from the list. If you change to a solid color, then that registry key becomes useless. Choose an image from there | 10:06 |

| harisund | new: You have to set it up in each other's SSH server I think, if I am not mistaken | 10:41 |
| Zenker | harishund you can copy out of a root, but not into with out first granting yourself permission | 10:41 |

| Zenker | harisund good point on the time :) | 10:48 |
| harisund | Zenker: delay line tells you how long to delay, gconf line tells it what to do, sleep line tells it to wait, exec line tells it to run again. So yes, you should be set. | 10:49 |

| nibbler | Jimi_Neutral: start by telling some more details, like client/server and active/passive config | 11:13 |
| Jimi_Neutral | nibbler, pureFTP is the server, and no client can upload to it | 11:13 |
| nibbler | Jimi_Neutral: and where is the server? internet? behind nat? and the client? | 11:13 |
| Jimi_Neutral | nibbler, server ---> bt business hub ----> internet | 11:14 |
| Jimi_Neutral | nibbler, smartftp has been used, filezilla has been used | 11:14 |
| mentr | can i move a program from one xserver screen to another? | 11:15 |
| Jimi_Neutral | nibbler, both can downlaod from it but not upload to it | 11:15 |
| nibbler | Jimi_Neutral: so you need a port forward from your bt device to your server and try using a client that uses passive ftp, unless your bt device is ftp-aware (eg has a helper module for that) | 11:15 |

| Dr_Willis | sab_: theres dozens of guides and docs out about Linux. it all depends on what you want to learn about first. | 11:29 |
| harisund | P_Kable: No, but NetworkManager took over and NetworkManager doesn't really care about /etc/network/interfaces | 11:29 |
| P_Kable | argh | 11:29 |

| Dr_Willis | daniel9: when i used UNR i recall there being no gnome panel (i coul;d be wrong) , and if i installed both ubuntu-desktop and unr, the netbook desktop wrongly started up a gnome panel. Which covered up some of the UNR interface. | 11:37 |

| daniel9 | to start from sr | 11:40 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel9: also check the ubuntu forums. it may be you just need to isntall some extra package. | 11:41 |
| obscurant1st | any tools like secedit in linux? for viewing and altering the data from a particular sector region? | 11:41 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel9: most all my printers i just plug them in.. and they worked. | 11:41 |
| Proton23 | Dr_Willis: Don't want to use them either :) | 11:41 |
| daniel9 | to start from scratch what command can i use to remove the files from the CUPS folder? | 11:41 |
| daniel9 | obscurant1st: if you are using windows (if at all) try using UBCD4Win, has some useful packages in it | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Proton23: start exploring the gnome/gtk config dirs I guess. | 11:43 |
| obscurant1st | daniel9, not windows. :(, i have only linux! | 11:43 |

| abhi_nav | rysiek|pl, remove it from software sources | 12:15 |
| rysiek|pl | is there a nice automagic way? or do I have to manually compare versions *shudders* | 12:15 |
| luanlmd | Guest26591, try ......./folder2/* because with that it will copy the content of the folder | 12:15 |
| rysiek|pl | abhi_nav, already removed from /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 12:15 |
| abhi_nav | rysiek|pl, hmm | 12:15 |
| daz | obscurant1st: dude... it's in the first 50 lines :f | 12:15 |
| rysiek|pl | abhi_nav, but now I want to downgrade the package | 12:15 |
| Dr_Willis | rysiek|pl: i recall seeing some 'purge-ppa' script at some tutorial site.. but im not sure of any other nioce automated way | 12:15 |
| perlsyntax | ? | 12:16 |
| abhi_nav | rysiek|pl, hmm dont know | 12:16 |
| jrib | rysiek|pl: you can do it in an automated way of course, but there is no "nice" way. downgrading isn't supported | 12:16 |
| Ramone | hey all.. can anyone tell me why apt won't get the latest version of gnutls? do I need to install from source? | 12:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramone: or perhaps find a PPA with it | 12:17 |
| rysiek|pl | jrib: no way... I always loved apt (old debianer here), never had to do that; but I was *sure* there was a way | 12:17 |
| rysiek|pl | abhi_nav, okay, thanks anyways | 12:17 |
| perlsyntax | can anyone help me? | 12:18 |
| jrib | rysiek|pl: basic idea is something like http://ryandaigle.com/articles/2005/10/31/listing-downgrading-unstable-testing-debian-packages | 12:19 |
| Ramone | Dr_Willis: PPA? | 12:19 |
| daevski | perlsyntax: What are you trying to do now? | 12:19 |
| perlsyntax | delate the gnome-panel | 12:19 |
| jrib | rysiek|pl: but don't even try if you aren't comfortable with everything there | 12:19 |
| Ramone | personal package archive | 12:19 |
| Dr_Willis | !ppa | Ramone | 12:20 |
| ubottu | Ramone: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 12:20 |
| Faithful | Where are these pdfs created by cups going? I can't find them | 12:20 |
| Ramone | Dr_Willis: cool thanks... I'll take a look | 12:20 |
| daevski | perlsyntax: it is not possible. BUT you can hide it really well. Right-click>properties and then set it to auto-hide and be transparent. | 12:20 |
| Dr_Willis | or you could make a new gdm 'session' that dosent start the panel. but starts other parts of gnome | 12:21 |
| gregg | my girlfriend wants to use my computer - i created a user account but she's a bit... blonde. Is it possible to get the netbook interface installed for her account, even though it's not a netbook? | 12:22 |
| Dr_Willis | gregg: you can install the netbook-dektop package. but ive had issues with it on the same system as normal ubuntu-desktop | 12:22 |
| Dr_Willis | gregg: put the icons she needs on the desktop in gnome and remove any extra stuff she may see/click on - is a easier way | 12:22 |
| AbortD | what about dual booting | 12:23 |
| gregg | Dr_Willis, yeah that's what i've done up to now, but she still ends up starting every single program i've ever installed lol | 12:23 |
| Dr_Willis | thats how people learn | 12:23 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 12:23 |
| Dr_Willis | You can edit her menus also | 12:23 |
| jkd4 | is there an application I can use to see what programs are using my connection and how much of my bandwidth they are using? | 12:25 |
| selves | hello | 12:25 |

| autoclesis | are there any bad consequences for a dual boot u 9.10 and win 7? | 12:25 |

| autoclesis | did you dual ? | 12:26 |
| autoclesis | okay. TY | 12:26 |
| AbortD | i dual boot it | 12:26 |

| gregg | Ok next question :) - I run linux as a vm from usb (16gb) from windows machines, right now I'm using xubuntu but UNR seems a bit tempting - again because of the interface - would that be more trouble than it's worth because of the non-netbook thing? | 12:33 |

| bao_ | by doing this, is this kubuntu as same as the kubuntu iso? | 13:20 |
| abhi_nav | bao_ if you want both then just do kubuntu-desktop or if you want only kubuntu then do steps shown by theadmin | 13:21 |
| abhi_nav | bao_ yah (*I think so*) better first conform in #kubuntu | 13:21 |
| bazhang | bao_, you want purekde ? | 13:21 |

| theadmin | iceroot: the only way known to me to actually remove all those packages which come bundled with ubuntu-desktop | 13:27 |
| iceroot | theadmin: i am wondering because ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage, i dont know tasksel but cant imaging its removing the things a metapckage provides | 13:27 |

| brucerwillkejr | hey guys i have an ubuntu question. is there anyway to have a drive auto mount when you login? | 13:38 |
| elyob | Hi, when I got my laptop it had Win 7 which I didn't want to lose, but didn't have the disks supplied. So, i have a dual boot and use ubuntu 99.9% of the time (think I only ever booted win once). I unfortunately have used all primary drives and have 1/2 of my hard drive unallocated! | 13:38 |
| elyob | Cannot figure out which is which, what I can delete etc | 13:39 |
| theadmin | elyob: I think you can extend your Linux partition to this unallocated space | 13:39 |
| abhi_nav | elyob, there are lots of things in win to delete. which you actually dont need e.g. restore | 13:40 |
| elyob | abhi_nav: it's not that I have run out of space, I have 270GB unallocated which I want to recover into Linux. | 13:41 |
| gabri | ols | 13:41 |
| gabri | ola | 13:41 |
| autoclesis | !eucalyptus | 13:41 |
| gabri | ola | 13:41 |
| elyob | theadmin: all options in gparted are greyed out | 13:41 |
| theadmin | Bleh. How can i make GParted run the partitioner in /dev/mapper/truecrypt1? | 13:41 |
| abhi_nav | hmmm then elyob you can exten you existing linux partition to that | 13:41 |
| theadmin | elyob: You need to boot from a CD | 13:41 |
| gabri | tontos | 13:41 |
| sudobash | elyob, those disks aren't supplied anymore by most manufacturers so you have to burn them when you boot up the PC for the first time, as for the space you can use gparted to nuke Win 7 and change it to a ext3/4 data partition | 13:42 |
| sudobash | or if you boot up gparted live you can grow your filesystem to the entire driver (nuke windows and expand EXT3/4 drive) | 13:42 |
| elyob | theadmin: thanks .. just grabbed my live CD will try now to extend sda3 | 13:44 |
| sudobash | elyob best thing to do is boot up Gparted Live, but I would make your Win 7 discs | 13:44 |
| elyob | sudobash: ta, off to try this out ... I did get HP send me out the disks. | 13:44 |
| sudobash | eylob did you know you couldl have had up to a $200 refund for Windows 7 had you not booted it up and denied your license agreement | 13:45 |
| theadmin | sudobash: Really? o_O | 13:45 |
| sudobash | yeap one second I will find the article, you have to go through the manufacturer for the refund but they have to give you one if you say you refuse to accept the license agreement and you are going to be using a free OS | 13:46 |
| sudobash | http://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-get-a-refund-for-windows-bundled-with-your-new-pc-2009-10 | 13:46 |
| sudobash | I wish I hadn't booted up Win 7 now lol | 13:47 |
| elyob | theadmin: yes .. I did know. Didn't bother with my netbook. Couldn't be bothered as I could see the hassle as being worse than forgetting about the loss of money. And this machine is a work machine, no money into my pocket! | 13:47 |

I would like to 'overlay' one local directory, so that /nfs/local points to my local HDD instead. This has to work for all the clients, so /nfs/local would be different on each computer. | 13:47 |
| geomi | My question: is this possible? | 13:47 |

| sudobash | Bubbi you will need to be in the path (directory) where your COD server is located | 13:50 |
| sudobash | you can't just execute any daemon if the system doesn't know where to find it | 13:50 |
| sine` | i want to run XP in a virtual environment | 13:50 |

| sine` | whats teh ose for | 13:51 |
| Bubbi | sudobash, I am already there. I have placed the COD4 server in "/home/martin/COD4_server" and when I'm in that folder, it throws the mentioned error | 13:51 |
| theadmin | sine`: Open Source Edition | 13:51 |
| sine` | cool | 13:51 |
| abhi_nav | anubis, you want to switch to terminal? | 13:51 |
| sudobash | sine' there is also VMware Workstation that would be suited for you but it's not free | 13:52 |
| sudobash | Bubbi is this a windows server or linux server edition of COD? | 13:52 |
| Bubbi | sudobash, It's a linux version :-) | 13:52 |
| JustinD | @Bubbi: is the file marked as executable? | 13:52 |

| Bubbi | JustinD, I've tried your suggestion, but without any other results. I wrote this: "/home/martin/COD4_server/cod4_lnxded" | 13:53 |
| sudobash | sine I thinkn you should be fine with 2GB ram running XP on top of Ubuntu | 13:53 |
| theadmin | sine`: Should be enough | 13:53 |
| sine` | * No suitable module for running kernel found [fail] | 13:54 |
| sine` | thats cool i shall check it out | 13:54 |
| Bubbi | JustinD, As far as I can see, it has the following rights: "-rwxr-xr-x" - so it should be executable.. | 13:54 |
| sudobash | ummmm I think it will compile a module for you | 13:54 |
| JustinD | @Bubbi: who owns the file? | 13:54 |
| Bubbi | JustinD, sudobash, it is owned by me, the user is "martin", which I log in with | 13:55 |

| theadmin | Keshav: On my Nokia, when i insert the data cable it asks for the mode. I chose Data Storage and it 'just works' | 14:04 |
| Fougner | moegreen: aptitude show <package> I guess? | 14:04 |
| ranjan | dkdexter:: yes you can do that ... | 14:05 |
| Keshav | theadmin: I want to be able to compose messages using Wamma/KMobileTools | 14:05 |
| JustinD | @bubbi: like I said, you can't call that file directly, it's telling you it can't find one of the files it needs to start. | 14:05 |
| theadmin | Keshav: hm. | 14:05 |
| underdev | sine`: depends on the processor really. virtual box can take advantage of hardware virt support on the cpu like a champ | 14:05 |
| ChogyDan | moegreen: another option is apt-cache policy <package> | 14:05 |
| Keshav | theadmin: I have both the softwares installed. But I cant understand how to get them working. | 14:06 |
| underdev | so if you can dedicate 3 cores and 3 gigs to win 7 ultimate, you are golden | 14:06 |
| JustinD | @bubbi: the call is something like ./cod4_lnxded + set dedicated 2 + sets gamestartup "` date + "% D% T" `" + set net_ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx + set net_port 28960 + set sv_punkbuster 1 + set loc_language 6 + exec codserver.cfg + map_rotate> / opt/games/cod4/start4.log 2> / opt/games/cod4/start4.log & | 14:06 |
| moegreen | thanks guys that worked. Just to clarify for a newb..when using apt-get that is pulling from what we call in the linux world repositories.. correct? | 14:06 |
| bazhang | moegreen, yes | 14:06 |
| Keshav | theadmin: Will you be able to help me out? | 14:06 |

| Keshav | theadmin: Okay. | 14:07 |
| sine` | underdev: so if i have dual core it can take one for this ubuntu and one for the xp virutalbox | 14:07 |
| moegreen | so if thunderbird 3 just came out. who puts it in the repos and how long usually? | 14:07 |
| underdev | sine`: again, depends on the cpu | 14:07 |
| theadmin | moegreen: See the repos of the Mozilla team | 14:07 |
| Keshav | I want to 'compose messages' using Wammu/KMobileTools. Can anyone help me with the same? | 14:08 |
| abhi_nav_ | pulling from? | 14:08 |
| Bubbi | JustinD, That is a lot of paramters that are optional and not necessary for the execution of the file. I have a setup in a VMWare, where I only execute the cod4_lnxded file. I have copied all the files from the VMWare to the new remote virtual server, so it really is weird that it won't even find the file :S | 14:08 |
| ranjan | dkdexter:: first change the permision of that folder .. in which your ntfs part is being mounted .. and you can share it out from your linux part with charm .. I have done it on my system .. and there is no issue with it | 14:08 |

| underdev | sine`: even within the same chip set, you can have varying degrees of hardware virt support. on the 8300 there are two sku that don't have it, and one that does. weird, huh? | 14:09 |
| Fougner | JediMaster: I don't know too much about filesystems, but is a SAN really reporting that correctly? | 14:09 |
| JediMaster | apparently it's correct, 55% disk usage but 100% inode usage | 14:09 |
| isolat3dsh33p | hey guys, how to `man bash` direct to certain topics. For example `man bash` + <insertcodehere> and directly the terminal scrolls to ARGUMENTS (a section in the manual page). | 14:09 |
| JediMaster | so it's a FS issue =/ rather than disk space | 14:10 |
| sine` | yes. i have installed virtualbox-ose and i tried removing it. when i tried the normal virtualbox it said that ose is conflicting and it wont install but i removed ose | 14:10 |
| === Guest10546 is now known as Blue-Omega_ | ||

| JediMaster | ok, really emergency here, how do I increase the amount of inodes on a ext3 partition? | 14:11 |
| sipior | JediMaster: remake the filesystem | 14:11 |
| underdev | sudobash: i wish i knew. Like i said, the only thing i can think of is installing w3m-el | 14:12 |
| JediMaster | sipior, anything that can be done from ssh or a console? (it's a remote virtual machine) | 14:12 |
| Atamisk | okay, since i'm having this issue with BOTH karmic and lucid, i'll see if the karmic gurus have help: i can't boot after a major upgrade. it gets to the logo screen, then hangs, and the monitor turns off. | 14:13 |
| underdev | i really want to keep using irrsi on my remote server | 14:13 |
| rocket16 | Hello all. | 14:13 |
| JustinD | @Bubbi: pm me. | 14:13 |
| sipior | JediMaster: more the data someplace safe (preferably two safe places), nuke and recreate the filesystem with a greater inode frequency. | 14:13 |
| theadmin | who's an inode o_O | 14:14 |
| sipior | theadmin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inode | 14:14 |
| obscurant1st | my wifi card is not getting detected by wicd? what should i do? | 14:14 |
| JediMaster | sipior, I have no control over how the FS is created, it's made by template | 14:14 |
| geomi | theadmin: basically, room for a file. if you're out of inodes make sure you remote lots of small files0. | 14:14 |
| obscurant1st | :o | 14:14 |

| sipior | hamzaatova2: if i understand your question correctly, have a look at KeePassX, it's a very nice password manager. | 14:18 |
| sipior | JediMaster: unfortunately, no. | 14:18 |

| freeman | There is a tray app that is new to 9.10. It store EVOLUTION/EMOTION/SKYPE etc etc etc | 14:58 |
| JediMaster | tonyyarusso, I'm rm -rf'ing the dir at the moment, 8 minutes so far and it's not deleted a single file yet (I know because df -i show's the inodes and they're still at 0 free) | 14:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | leemal, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1297693 in particular #7 post/comment -- hope it works | 14:59 |
| MegaHerz | I don't really understand what is worse - Alsa or PulseAudio. Any ideas? | 14:59 |
| rafa_ | olaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | 14:59 |
| Vigo | freeman: If you look at Main Menu, you can just replace any launchers or such as you wish. | 14:59 |
| rafa_ | eoooooo | 14:59 |
| ranjan | freeman:: by adding indicator applet on the panel you can achieve your gole | 14:59 |
| MegaHerz | rafa_: drunk? | 14:59 |
| freeman | indicator ! lol thanks : ) | 14:59 |
| tonyyarusso | JediMaster: is whatever potentially caused the problem just creating new files as fast as you can delete them? | 14:59 |
| arvind_khadri | !poll | MegaHerz | 15:00 |
| ubottu | MegaHerz: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 15:00 |
| arvind_khadri | MegaHerz, pulseaudio uses alsa | 15:00 |
| Vigo | freeman: System>Preferences>Main Menu, the launcher is there, I think, or go CLI . | 15:01 |
| MegaHerz | arvind_khadri: I'm just laughing on Sound in Linux. Its so damaged. All this architechures, NEVER works | 15:02 |
| * leemal sniffs. Do I smell a troll? | 15:02 | |
| freeman | Vigo thanks. It was indicator I was looking for : ) Everything works now. YOu all roxor | 15:03 |
| rjb | i installed ubuntu now i cant boot winxp cant find hal.dll | 15:03 |
| Vigo | freeman: Sweet! | 15:03 |
| JediMaster | tonyyarusso, no, I've deleted a few files (around 100) and the free inodes are staying roughly the same +/- 5 | 15:03 |

| mikebeecham | Hi there....if I wanted to suggest an amendement to the new GTK themes...where would I offer this? | 15:04 |
| DJones | !es | rocio | 15:04 |
| ubottu | rocio: 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. | 15:04 |
| arvind_khadri | DJones, too late :) | 15:04 |
| JediMaster | tonyyarusso, I think it's just a stupid amount of temporary session data files that have never been deleted (maybe 18 months worth) | 15:04 |
| JediMaster | on a busy site | 15:04 |
| inveratulo | JediMaster: you have something filling it as fast as you can delete... kill that first | 15:04 |
| Eximius | Does anyone have a simillar position as me : Adobe Flash PLugin doesnt work shit either way you install it manual .so or dpkg or apt-get | 15:04 |
| arvind_khadri | mikebeecham, on the mailing list of that particular community, probably | 15:04 |
| JediMaster | inveratulo, read what I said, free inodes are sitting at around 100, rm isn't deleting files yet, it's still reading all the files in | 15:05 |
| rjb | installed ubuntu, i cant boot winxp, it cant find hal.dll file, what can i do? | 15:06 |
| JediMaster | inveratulo, iotop shows the only process doing any I/O at all is rm at the moment, (150-250 K/s read but 0 write, and nothing is writing) | 15:06 |
| inveratulo | JediMaster: did you try a 'find -type f YOURPATH -exec rm -rf {} \;' <-- for the love of god be careful with this | 15:06 |
| Vigo | Eximius: Did you enable Restricted? | 15:08 |
| JediMaster | inveratulo, hehe, no I've not tried it, because I waited for 20 minutes for "find /path | wc -l" and it still didn't return | 15:08 |
| Eximius | No, but flash started working miraculously | 15:08 |
| Shagrath | yo | 15:09 |
| inveratulo | JediMaster: so background it and check on it | 15:09 |
| Vigo | Eximius: Good to go then? | 15:09 |

| inveratulo | JediMaster: if you're using just rm its probably gonna crash before it even deletes anything, use one of the other methods in the link i sent previously | 15:19 |

| Ken | Basically, I want to set up a samba server for the users in my house - I want the access they have to be defined by the username they log into on their local machines. For example, if I log in under my username (Ken) in my dads laptop, I want it to connect to my shared folder on my samba server. If he logs in under his name "David" I want him to connect to his. The same setup for every machine. | 15:21 |
| Voort | I am using Rubymine in Ubuntu 9.10 and I would like to setup a menu item for it and just click the icon to launch it and followed a webpage that seemed to set it up the way I wanted but it doesn't seem to work. ideas? anyone? | 15:21 |
| mickster04 | Ken: there are instructions on the samba site | 15:21 |
| autoclesis | !rubymine | 15:21 |
| Ken | Thanks, ubottu and Mickster04. What am I looking for those? What's the terminology called? Active Directory Server or..erm..? | 15:21 |
| Trek | Ken: use #Ubuntu-server for more specific server help. | 15:21 |
| mickster04 | Ken: however for your use case... | 15:21 |
| Ken | That's the bit i'm confused about. Domain Controller etc etc. | 15:22 |
| arvind_khadri | Ken, yeah AD . | 15:22 |
| mickster04 | Trek: its a pretty useless channel | 15:22 |
| Voort | Ken, it almost sounds like you want to setup an LDAP server ... | 15:22 |
| Ken | Thanks, Trek, I might just do that. Thank you. | 15:22 |
| arvind_khadri | !ad > Ken | 15:22 |
| ubottu | Ken, please see my private message | 15:22 |
| Voort | Active Directory (AD) is Micro$oft's implementation of LDAP, LDAP is the open standard | 15:22 |
| Ken | Thank you, arvind_khadri. | 15:22 |
| arvind_khadri | Ken, no probs | 15:23 |
| Ken | Thank you too Voort. | 15:23 |
| aetaric | Voort: actually AD is both LDAP and Kerberos 5 | 15:23 |
| Steen | JustinD, Hi again, It's me with the "no such file or directory" error :-) I've now gotten a bit further | 15:23 |
| inveratulo | ken -- you're trying to link a samba server into a preexisting AD? | 15:23 |
| arvind_khadri | aetaric, it can be samba too, depends | 15:23 |
| Ken | No. I have an old, unused PC tower that i've installed Ubuntu Server 9.10 onto. | 15:23 |
| Ken | And wish to change it into a local fileserver with, eventually, remote fileserver access (Although this last step may or may not ever happen) | 15:24 |
| aetaric | arvind_khadri: samba is just a package that makes Linux support the SMB protocol | 15:24 |
| === Steen is now known as Bubbi | ||
| detrix | chas1066: welcome | 15:24 |
| arvind_khadri | aetaric, yeah, you can setup and AD using samba with LDAP .. | 15:25 |
| Ken | So I'm looking to set up an AD with LDAP? | 15:25 |
| arvind_khadri | Ken, yes | 15:25 |
| Ken | Sorry to keep bombarding with questions. Essentially i'll set up my username and password on each laptop and my dads username and password on each laptop. | 15:25 |
| aetaric | you can join AD with LDAP client and winbind. >.< | 15:26 |
| zeko | hi, guys is there a way where i could download the .deb files with apt-get to a different directory than /var/cache/apt , because i only need a particular set of packages and not all , ro install in a different computer | 15:26 |

| Eighteens | im trying to install ubuntu 9.01 32bit, and it gets like 58 - 65% of the install and fails, it keeps saying to burn the disc at a lower speed, or the drive is bad... ive tried reburning, even at a slower speed, still fails... anyone got comments that may help overcome this issue | 15:26 |
| Bubbi | JustinD, (just changed name from Steen). I've now been able to run the script (wuhu..). But I still have a problem with the "no such file" error.. this time it is in the script, that it actually receives this error.. should I be doing something special to execute the file..? | 15:26 |
| Ken | That does make sense, Inveratulo, but I'm doing it for the learning experience because I plan to expand it a little further. I'm just using my home as an example. | 15:26 |
| arvind_khadri | zeko, yes you can | 15:26 |
| zeko | arvind_khadri: how do i do it | 15:27 |
| zeko | arvind_khadri: how can i do it | 15:27 |
| Ken | If I can get it set up at home it means I can maybe roll it out to a department in our organisation. | 15:27 |
| JustinD | @Bubbi: pm me then! :P | 15:27 |
| arvind_khadri | zeko, apt-get -d <package list> | 15:28 |
| Golden_Kumquat | Basically, I can't run Ubuntu at all right now | 15:28 |
| Ken | I'm surprised how easily I got a very basic samba, postfix, apache and my mysql server set up. I have no idea how to use mysql or postfix though, so i'm hopeful about the more advanced smb server. | 15:28 |
| aetaric | eww postfix | 15:29 |
| papul | hi. i am facing a problem. when i add "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable main" to sources.list and do apt-get update it stops a 99% | 15:29 |
| arvind_khadri | zeko, sorry its apt-get install -d | 15:29 |
| papul | the moment i remove it and do apt-get update again it completes | 15:29 |
| Ken | Ive since disabled postfix aetaric - like i siad, it's all just for the learning. | 15:30 |
| zeko | arvind_khadri: yeah but it downloads to /var/cache/apt/, but i want it in a different directory, because i need to download the medibuntu .deb's and searching for each in the individual packages in the whole cache is tiresome | 15:30 |
| trism | papul: the google repos can be kind of slow, if you wait it will usually finish (if this is for google chrome you could try using the chromium beta channel instead) | 15:30 |
| papul | it stops at 99% stating waiting for headers | 15:30 |
| papul | trism, yes google chrome | 15:30 |
| Ken | I have no need for it - I don't think I'd need my own mail or web server. It's just a file server on my local network which I hope to eventually turn into a remote (i.e. over the internet) file server. | 15:31 |
| papul | trism, where can i fing the chromium beta channel? | 15:31 |
| trism | papul: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/beta | 15:31 |
| nnc2 | hi | 15:31 |
| Ken | Which is probably another question. I'm aware of the implications of opening a server to the internet, even with authentication and security, but is it possible to do that via Samba in the same way I hope to set it up for my home network? | 15:31 |
| arvind_khadri | zeko, read the man pages | 15:31 |
| papul | trism, but pings are fine :/ | 15:32 |
| aetaric | Ken: you mean smaba over the internet? | 15:32 |
| Ken | I should be able to log in from my work computer and access a specific shared folder on my server so long as I set up my username/password on the server via SSH? | 15:32 |
| Ken | I do, aetaric. | 15:32 |
| aetaric | Ken: you might want to look at the openvpn package | 15:32 |
| Ken | Thanks, Aetaric. | 15:33 |
| Ken | All of this has stemmed from someone introducing me to Hamachi. | 15:33 |
| nnc2 | with the update on 19-03-10 I lost sound, is there any fix ? | 15:33 |
| aetaric | no problem ken, i use openvpn at my house too. | 15:33 |
| Ken | How do you access it via another windows/linux machine? | 15:33 |
| Golden_Kumquat | Whenever I try to start up Ubuntu on Grub, I get "kernal panic - not synching: VFS unable to mount root fs on unknown-block" | 15:34 |
| trism | papul: yeah, I don't understand it either, but they were slow for me too, but it has been much faster since switching to chromium instead (apt-get update that is), so it must be something with google's repo | 15:34 |
| Ken | Client side, right? Specific software needed or can you connect like a normal file server? (i..e like one on the network) aetaric. | 15:34 |
| papul | trism, waited and it completed | 15:34 |
| aetaric | you can connect to network software | 15:34 |
| aetaric | like... | 15:34 |
| papul | trism, now updating chrome :) | 15:34 |
| trism | papul: yeah it will, it is just really slow | 15:34 |
| aetaric | it is like hamachi | 15:34 |
| Golden_Kumquat | I can dual-boot into Windows, so it's only Ubuntu which is having that problem | 15:35 |
| Ken | Thank you again, Aetaric. Sorry for all the newbie questions. | 15:35 |
| aetaric | np | 15:35 |
| Ken | I'm a little more clued in on the directions I need to go. I think openVPN might actually be more useful than LDAP server. | 15:35 |
| papul | please suggest a good lightweight browser. firefox is too heavy for me | 15:35 |
| Ken | Papul, try Lynx. | 15:36 |
| Voort | Ken, actually ... | 15:36 |
| Ken | Yes Voort? | 15:36 |
| papul | Ken, lol its cmd | 15:36 |
| Voort | well, not exactly sure what you want to do | 15:36 |
| Ken | I was mostly kidding Papul. I use firefox but it is interesting. I think I used epiphany and it worked okay. | 15:36 |
| Voort | don't know if vpn would be an option for file sharing | 15:36 |
| papul | Ken, i found one named midori | 15:37 |

Basically remote file sharing to users with the right authenticion (kind of like FTP) that anyone with the username and password can map as a shared folder to their computer. I was going to do it internally in my LAN but as practice before I allow it to open over the internet. | 15:38 |
| Voort | aetaric: true but would it let him really do "filesharing" or would it be more like and ftp site? | 15:38 |

| Golden_Kumquat | Um, I'll need to restart it | 15:45 |
| hwilde | Golden_Kumquat, I think it's just looking for the wrong partition | 15:45 |

| jasonop8 | well, I need some help. anyone know of a GOOD tutorial for editing my Grub after installing windows over 'nix? | 15:46 |
| mickster04 | doseryder: cahnge motd.tail | 15:46 |
| airco | in terminal, how do i zip an entire directory incl. sub dirs? | 15:46 |
| ndrs | hello | 15:46 |
| Golden_Kumquat | Would I be able to edit GRUB from a live CD? | 15:46 |
| hwilde | doseryder, man update-motd | 15:46 |
| mickster04 | !grub | jasonop8 | 15:46 |
| ubottu | jasonop8: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 15:46 |
| abhi_nav | jasonjang, yah lots of them in forums | 15:46 |
| hwilde | Golden_Kumquat, yes but first figure out which partition has the ubuntu install | 15:46 |
| abhi_nav | !tar | airco | 15:47 |
| ubottu | airco: Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 15:47 |
| nathanbdot | Ok. This sucks. Apt-get is downloading at <1000b/sec -- This is based on the server it chose after testing for the "best server" | 15:47 |
| nathanbdot | any suggestions? | 15:47 |
| abhi_nav | airco, you can use tar with command prompt to zip i.e. compress and uncompress | 15:47 |
| ndrs | i have a problem, after installing windows under xubuntu i had a problem with grub that i couldnt load linux. i fixed that and now can't load windows. could some1 tell me how to config grub to load windows ? | 15:47 |

| abhi_nav | unimatrix, you dont need to tell this to grub, you need to tell this to bios of you pc | 15:52 |

| abhi_nav | Eighteens, check if this cd have any error | 16:02 |
| jellow | Eighteens: Did you run checksum on iso ? Try diffrent cd ? | 16:02 |
| Myrtti | nathanbdot: you could always try to add an additional repository to your sources.list, but I doubt it would help. The repos are usually on very fast servers and if those speeds are what you are getting, the problem is more likely to be the speed of your internet, and it throttling you, than the output the repositories can give | 16:03 |
| jellow | Eighteens: There are also usb installers if all else fails. | 16:03 |
| Eighteens | yes i did a reburn with a new cd, even tried it on a dvd, in another drive, i ran memtest, and had ubuntu check the disc, all said good | 16:03 |

| Galaxor | Instead of trying to use UDP, I definitely see attempts to use IPX, when viewing the strace output. socket(PF_IPX, SOCK_DGRAM, [PF_IPX]) -- this does not look like the actions of a program that's trying to use UDP instead of IPX. | 16:07 |

| guntbert | Thyzor: don't take polls here please | 18:16 |
| Thyzor | ok | 18:16 |
| Out_Cold_ | nuk i disagree... it will let you down if you can't get past the limitations of winblows | 18:16 |
| jim__ | is that downloaded or already in the distr? | 18:17 |
| babu__ | when i try to install uget ,it shows already installed.....but when i type that cmd, it shows cmd not found | 18:17 |

| === user_ is now known as Jeff91 | ||
| maginot | lhl_henrylui, no | 18:21 |
| lhl_henrylui | Why | 18:21 |
| maginot | lhl_henrylui, not on ubuntu or any other linux system, only if you have a file server | 18:21 |
| ubutom | babu, i can't find it in the repos with aptitude search | 18:21 |
| guntbert | !av | lhl_henrylui | 18:21 |
| ubottu | lhl_henrylui: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 18:21 |
| maginot | lhl_henrylui, there is no real virus for linux | 18:21 |
| lhl_henrylui | Thank you | 18:22 |
| d_rwin | lhl_henrylui: nevr, try chkrootkits to feel safe | 18:22 |
| sammy | Out_Cold_: I found some general instructions for grub with -- oh you said your /boot is a primary partition and / is on the lvm. as for suggestions, I'd take a look at /boot/grub/grub.cfg (which is automatically generated by update-grub) and see if anything seems incorrect. there's also http://grub.enbug.org/LVMandRAID on the grub wiki, but they're not ubuntu specific suggestions. | 18:22 |

| * nuk is away: >> getting milk for the wifey | 18:26 | |
| maginot | I don't know why people keep trying to use windows programs on linux, they may work but mostly with problems and issues, winows executable files aren't native for linux, so they are emulated and furthermore most times doesn't work properly | 18:26 |

| ubottu | nuk, please see my private message | 18:26 |
| maginot | if I need to use some windows program on linux I prefer to se a Virtual machine, like VirtualBox, which emulates the entire system | 18:27 |
| Mansoor | lhl_henrylui, wine works pretty good with windows executable applications, if dosnt work, just copy your dlls from <windows root>/system/system32 to ~/.wine/c/windows/system/system32 | 18:27 |

| AngelHavok | What's the command to download and install gpm through terminal | 18:41 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, Software Sources? Where is that? | 18:41 |
| guntbert | waraw: what version? | 18:41 |
| lhl_henrylui | boourns2, I've tried a game and it said a serious error occured | 18:41 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: System -> Administration | 18:41 |
| boourns2 | lhl_henrylui, check if the game is reported to work in wine @ http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 18:42 |
| maginot | Gieke, if you want to have a share for you user its easier to use /etc/fstab for that just keep it for the user you want. But you have to realize the smb:// isn't a command, so will not work. | 18:42 |
| Gieke | maginot, it tried fstab, i failed | 18:42 |
| boourns2 | lhl_henrylui, and if it definitely doesn't work, you can install VirtualBox and make a VM of windows to use it | 18:42 |
| Gieke | and it's not a command | 18:42 |
| Gieke | it's like not run in terminal | 18:42 |
| Gieke | terminal fails | 18:42 |
| Gieke | alt+f2 works | 18:43 |
| waraw | guntbert, xubuntu -- it finally has reacted to tell me it's disabling irq's, so hopefully it's in progress. | 18:43 |

| nuk | is beryl the best looking "eye candy" available for linux? | 18:44 |
| alecs | can anyone help me installing openPGP key ? I have installed thunderbird / enigmail, but everytime i am trying to enter the passphrase, it just pop few times, and then i get: "Error: Bad passphrase"... but again ... i cannot enter the pass | 18:44 |
| cellofellow | AngelHavok: not sure why gpm would fix that. Gpm provides mouse support for the console (no X). | 18:44 |
| maginot | Gieke, forget alt+f2 for a moment, you will not do like you do there. Well, you put on the command of startup aplication smb://.... but in front of that put nautilus, like nautilus smb://... | 18:44 |
| Gnea | nuk: it's no longer called beryl, but compiz | 18:44 |
| nightsjammies | so can anyone help me? | 18:44 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: not until you tell us what the problem is | 18:44 |
| Gieke | k | 18:44 |
| Gieke | let's try | 18:44 |
| troels | Hi - I'm running Ubuntu 9.1 and I want to disable the startup sound. I've looked in System-Settings-Sound but the only option here is to turn of ALL sound, or change themes. I've looked in the System-administration-login, but nothing there either. how do I turn i of? | 18:45 |
| AngelHavok | I don't know either, but I need to get this fixed cause I can't get any work done and it's enough to actually make me consider going back to windows...which I really don't want to do | 18:45 |
| soreau | troels: It should be in sounds | 18:45 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, so how do I install something from ppa:doctormo/barry-snapshot? Supposedly running update does it, but I don't see the program anywhere in my applications menu or anything | 18:45 |
| nuk | i installed compiz on Backtrack distro, but I can't get any of the nice effects to work...any tips? | 18:45 |
| maginot | snr1, you may need to manually remove the broken package from /var/lib/dpkg/status | 18:45 |
| nightsjammies | I'm having trouble getting my boot menu to show up..I replaced ## hiddenmenu with # hiddenmenu and #hiddenmenu, and I still have to hit esc. | 18:45 |
| soreau | nuk: What have you tried to get compiz running? | 18:45 |
| Gnea | nuk: talk to the backtrack people...#backtrack? | 18:45 |
| cellofellow | troels: there's probably something called Gnome Login Sound in the Startup Applications. | 18:45 |
| * Gieke brb | 18:45 | |
| maginot | snr1, but its a dangerous step. Keep that in mind. A backup of the file is recommended | 18:45 |
| nuk | shall do.... :) | 18:45 |
| nightsjammies | I still have to hit esc to get into the boot menu | 18:46 |
| nightsjammies | here's the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/dQsgvcap | 18:46 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: ok, on the webpage for the PPA it will also list packages provided by the PPA. Once you've added the PPA to your system, you can now install the package like normal. | 18:46 |
| soreau | nightsjammies: Maybe try setting the timeout to 0? | 18:46 |
| AngelHavok | I can't find any kind of fix on the forums | 18:46 |
| boourns2 | cellofellow, i never realized that's where it was, even tho it wasn't my q, thanks | 18:46 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: which version of grub? | 18:46 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, you have to commend hiddenmenu... | 18:47 |
| maginot | *comment | 18:47 |

| cellofellow | boourns2: what, the Gnome Login Sound? | 18:47 |
| Gieke | k | 18:47 |
| boourns2 | cellofellow, yep | 18:47 |
| Gieke | i'm back | 18:47 |
| troels | soreau, It's not there - or at least I'm unable to find it :) | 18:47 |
| soreau | nightsjammies: Oh yes, cellofellow is right. If you are using grub2, settings in menu.lst will be ignored | 18:47 |
| Gieke | it works | 18:47 |
| nightsjammies | um, I don't know which version of grub I'm using. And comment like: # hiddenmenu, right? | 18:47 |
| soreau | troels: Whats not where? | 18:47 |
| maginot | Gieke, sure, now you have a command been executed ;D | 18:47 |
| nightsjammies | oh. so how do I find out which version of grub I'm using? | 18:47 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: with ubuntu 9.10? | 18:48 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, did you read what I told you? Comment hiddenmenu | 18:48 |
| sealive | hi no video on youtube about:plugins says all ok | 18:48 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, ppa:doctormo/barry-snapshot is the PPA, I tried 'sudo apt-get install barry' as that's the package listed, but it says 'couldn't find package "barry"' | 18:48 |
| Gieke | is there also a command to close nautilus (or other programs) | 18:48 |
| troels | the possibily to turn of a specific sound - I only got themes, and No sounds at all | 18:48 |
| Gnea | maginot: did you see that he's already commented it? | 18:48 |
| nightsjammies | right, comment like: # hiddenmenu, right? | 18:48 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: what's the webpage for the PPA? | 18:48 |
| === orbarron|OoO is now known as orbarron | ||
| boourns2 | nightsjammies, you can also do "grub --version" | 18:48 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, https://launchpad.net/~doctormo/+archive/barry-snapshot | 18:48 |
| maginot | Gnea, are you blind? take another look to his pastebin | 18:48 |
| troels | cellofellow, Found it - will give it a try. Thanks | 18:49 |
| maginot | Gnea, http://pastebin.com/dQsgvcap | 18:49 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: in Grub1 the commented parts are for the update-grub utility. Double-commented parts are completely ignored. So, make # hiddenmenu into ## hiddenmenu then run sudo update-grub | 18:49 |
| nightsjammies | grub (GNU GRUB 0.97) | 18:49 |
| Gnea | maginot: I see that he has not, and yet he said he did, so the question is, was the pastebin made before or after the comment? | 18:49 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: yeah, that's grub1 (or grub-legacy). | 18:49 |
| nightsjammies | okay. | 18:50 |
| nightsjammies | thanks btw, for all of your help :) | 18:50 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: what version of Ubuntu are you running? | 18:50 |
| maginot | Gnea, well, I believe on what I see lol | 18:50 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, karmic | 18:50 |
| mimor | Hello all... Can someone translate the following text from Dutch or English to French or German? http://paste.ubuntu.com/401960/ | 18:50 |
| Gnea | maginot: that explains a lot heh | 18:50 |
| nightsjammies | so what'd I do wrong then? | 18:50 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: huh. You sure it has updated the cache? | 18:50 |
| boourns2 | mimor, http://translate.google.com | 18:50 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, how can I update the cache? | 18:51 |
| mimor | boubbin, >< that's not verry perfect, is it? | 18:51 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: either click Update in Synaptic, or run sudo apt-get update | 18:51 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, again. Did you put a "#" in front of hiddenmenu ? | 18:51 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: probably best to just completely delete the line with hiddemenu | 18:52 |
| nightsjammies | I've tried that. Does it need to be: #hiddenmenu, or # hiddenmenu? | 18:52 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: ## hiddenmenu if anything at all | 18:52 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: doesn't matter, as long as # is the first thing on the line | 18:52 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, ^ | 18:52 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, it's waiting on headers right now, so one sec | 18:52 |
| nightsjammies | well, I've tried #hiddenmenu, ##hiddenmenu, # hiddenmenu, and ## hiddenmenu | 18:53 |
| nightsjammies | and all still the same result. It skips right to linux. | 18:53 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: well, try ### hiddenmenu | 18:53 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: none of the changes take untill you run update-grub | 18:53 |
| Gnea | cellofellow: really? | 18:53 |
| nightsjammies | ahh okay. | 18:53 |
| Gnea | it's not lilo, it's grub | 18:53 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: it should be # hiddenmenu, then run update-grub | 18:54 |
| maginot | cellofellow, says who? | 18:54 |
| Gnea | only lilo ever required that the MBR be reinstalled each time | 18:54 |
| === eddy is now known as saturno | ||
| nightsjammies | # hiddenmenu | 18:54 |
| Gnea | with grub, it reads the config file each and everytime | 18:54 |
| nightsjammies | and I just ran update-grub. | 18:54 |
| === saturno is now known as saturnol | ||
| BBUser | cellofellow, yeah doesn't look like it updated or installed anything | 18:54 |
| cellofellow | Gnea: update-grub doesn't mess with the mbr. | 18:54 |
| nightsjammies | I'll be right back. | 18:54 |
| maginot | nightfrog, please, pastebin your menu.lst | 18:54 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: run "sudo aptitude", it should show up in the "New Packages" section. | 18:54 |
| maginot | cellofellow, to update-grub is only to update the boot loader, not its config, that is done on menu.lst | 18:55 |
| Gnea | cellofellow: sure it does, menu.lst is always read on each bootup. it's not hard-coded. | 18:55 |
| cellofellow | update-grub only edits menu.lst, but looking more closely, the hiddenmenu stuff isn't touched by update-grub | 18:55 |
| maginot | cellofellow, please, man update-grub | 18:55 |
| cellofellow | maginot: I know how it works | 18:56 |
| maginot | cellofellow, no. You dont. | 18:56 |
| Gnea | cellofellow: lilo used to have to do that, if you made a change, you had to re-run lilo each time to make the changes take effect. that's one reason why grub is so much better than lilo. | 18:56 |
| jbartus | is there an Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud channel or do questions on it go in here? | 18:56 |
| Gnea | cellofellow: incorrect. | 18:56 |
| Gnea | cellofellow: update-grub generates a menu.lst, it doesn't edit it. | 18:56 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, I don't see a new packages section? | 18:56 |
| nightsjammies | Well hell, still didn't work... | 18:57 |
| Gnea | to edit is to assume that the file exists already | 18:57 |

| === lfx is now known as lfx-new | ||
| cellofellow | BBUser: umm. Ok, just search barry (hit / to open the search box) | 18:57 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, if you pastebin your menu.lst I may help you. | 18:57 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: not surprised. check your menu.lst again and see if hiddenmenu is still commented or not | 18:57 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: maybe we're editing the wrong file | 18:57 |
| cellofellow | or not | 18:57 |
| lhl_henrylui | How do I know whether I'm 32bit or 64bit? | 18:57 |

| BBUser | cellofellow, okay it found 'libbarry' | 18:58 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, do the follow: cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | grep hiddenmenu | 18:58 |
| nightsjammies | http://pastebin.com/DjBBih4N | 18:58 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: hit 'n' to go to the next match | 18:58 |
| Gnea | lhl_henrylui: if it's i686, it's 32bit. if it's x86_64, it's 64bit | 18:58 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, pastebin the output of the command I gave you. | 18:58 |
| lhl_henrylui | Gnea: What do you mean? | 18:59 |
| trism | nightsjammies: there is a second hiddenmenu line in that file, you need to comment both | 18:59 |
| lenovo | anyone here know why ubuntu 9.10 32-bit does not see my logitech mk300 wireless keyboard and mouse ? | 18:59 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, there's a bunch of 'libs' and opensync for barry and stuff, but no just 'barry' | 18:59 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, again. You have not commented hiddenmenu | 18:59 |
| genii | jbartus: #ubuntu-server or perhaps #eucalyptus | 18:59 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: right, it's not commented. we determined that update-grub is not the correct command to be using for this. try gedit or nano | 18:59 |
| Gnea | lhl_henrylui: run this command in a terminal shell: uname -m | 18:59 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: you sure? search "^barry" | 18:59 |
| nightsjammies | http://pastebin.com/XGTnRsEW | 18:59 |
| jbartus | genii: tx | 18:59 |
| cellofellow | it should be there | 18:59 |
| lhl_henrylui | got it | 18:59 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, yep... | 18:59 |
| hdon | can anyone recommend an RSS gnome panel applet? | 19:00 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, see, you have a second hiddenmenu which isn't commented | 19:00 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: must not have added the PPA correctly. hit q to exit aptitude. Run sudo add-apt-repository ppa:doctormo/barry-snapshot | 19:00 |
| nightsjammies | yeah, I just saw it. | 19:00 |
| nightsjammies | okay, I'll be right back. | 19:01 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: so open menu.lst with gedit (like this: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst ) and add a # manually | 19:01 |
| Gnea | er heh | 19:01 |
| Gnea | maginot: this'll be interesting :) | 19:01 |
| maginot | I hate when I have to repeat over and over again the same thing... I told him he had a hiddenmenu from the beggining. /= | 19:02 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, it says 'unprocessed: 1' 'unchanged: 1' is that significant? | 19:02 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: no | 19:02 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: then run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install barry | 19:02 |
| Gnea | maginot: sometimes repeating doesn't always work... it also doesn't help when conflicting help is being given | 19:02 |
| nightsjammies | All right. That worked. Thanks much everyone :) | 19:03 |
| maginot | Gnea, nahh .. what really works is to pay more attention. =) | 19:03 |
| cellofellow | Gnea: sorry 'bout that | 19:03 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: cheers :) | 19:03 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, sure. | 19:03 |
| nightsjammies | :) | 19:03 |
| Gnea | cellofellow: it's cool | 19:03 |
| Gnea | maginot: agreed :) | 19:03 |
| kostkon | hdon, a tray based one, like yarssr? or GrNotify (for google reader) | 19:03 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, it's taking a few to wait on headers every time I do update | 19:03 |
| nightsjammies | So now that I see that I've got more than 1 version of linux in the boot menu, I can just delete it, right? | 19:04 |
| skrite | is there a way to temporarily disable a trackpad on a laptop? i have a macbook that keeps accidentally jumping my cursor around | 19:04 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: that's normal | 19:04 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: that means you have several older kernels installed | 19:04 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, its there in the case you need after an update. If the last one is working properly you can remove the other, but that wont remove the kernels from /boot | 19:04 |
| nightsjammies | yes, I know. | 19:04 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: you can, but I find that it's easier to just apt-get remove the actual kernel itself that's being referred to, since subsequent updates will just add them back in | 19:04 |
| cellofellow | nightsjammies: don't remove those from menu.lst, they'll just get added back the next time apt runs update-grub. | 19:04 |
| nightsjammies | ah, okay. | 19:04 |
| Gnea | :) | 19:05 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, E: Couldn't find package barry | 19:05 |
| nightsjammies | so just leave 'em. Okay. How about reordering the XP to the top of the list? Can I just cut and paste to the top of the boot order? | 19:05 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: that's really odd | 19:05 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, yep | 19:05 |
| Gnea | nightsjammies: sure | 19:05 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: the update didn't give any errors? | 19:06 |
| BBUser | cellofellow no, just the barry install | 19:06 |
| maginot | nightsjammies, but take care to not make any mistakes. I recommend you to backup menu.lst first. | 19:06 |
| gamusino69 | hola | 19:06 |

| nightsjammies | right. so I'd add the XP right below: ## ## End Default Options ## | 19:07 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, would rebooting do anything? o.O | 19:07 |
| maginot | insano, what kind of "policy" ? | 19:07 |
| hdon | kostkon, i will check out yarssr, thanks | 19:07 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: oh, the package isn't called barry | 19:07 |
| BBUser | cellofellow, it's not? O_O | 19:07 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: there are packages barry-util, barrybackup-gui, libbarry, and opensync-plugin-barry | 19:08 |
| maginot | BBUser, why not uset aptitude search <part-of-package-name> ? | 19:08 |
| maginot | *uset/use | 19:08 |
| cellofellow | BBUser: sudo aptitude install ~nbarry should do the trick | 19:08 |
| hdon | kostkon, oh i see, you said tray. no i don't want the tray, i want a ticker at the top of my screen that shows new RSS stuff | 19:08 |

| lesshaste | any ideas? | 19:17 |
| imi | cellofellow, you mean the launchpad or the IRC channel? | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Tlul: you can add / remove options for one shot by edittin grub before it launches the loading | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Tlul: read the grub docs to see how | 19:18 |
| ubutom | lesshaste, try installing the referring package | 19:18 |
| lesshaste | ubutom, what is it? | 19:18 |
| joshuah | lesshaste: download deb from http://www.skype.com/ | 19:18 |
| lesshaste | joshuah, there is no karmic link is there? | 19:18 |
| cellofellow | imi: this particular IRC channel. Also, I don't think KDevelop uses LP for its main bugtracker, probably best to go to KDEs bugtracker and report it there. You can then link the LP bug to the KDE bug. | 19:18 |

| harjot_ | ActionParsnip: im quite interseted in the dd method | 19:27 |

| maginot | nuk, enable it with alacarte | 19:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Hvgotcodes: then remove the bad one | 19:30 |

| maginot | nuk, ops, alacarte is for gnome, don't know if work on kde | 19:30 |
| harjot_ | maginot: because i really have no time for splitting let alone enough space | 19:30 |
| hvgotcodes | ActionParsnip, yep thanx | 19:30 |
| maginot | harjot_, dd is a binary copy tool. I recommend dd if you really know what you're doing. | 19:30 |

| nuk | i will try that...thanks | 19:31 |

| netshinE | hey all, i just upgraded my 9.10 to the first beta of 10.04 :D | 19:32 |

| SnowmanX11 | blakkheim: ok, foe example: vo=gl,gl2,x11 is correct? | 19:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Insano: look into chmod and chown as well as how linux manages permissions | 19:35 |

| maginot | Losha, The method of piping tar through SSH is faster than SCP not because SCP is slow (the transfer rate would theoretically be exactly the same), but because it saves a lot of time by parallelizing the tar.gz creation with the transfer. This is even more true if the source system only has one hard drive (or the only hard drive with enough free space to do the tar.gz is the same as the one you want data from). | 19:43 |

| Ironholds | maginot: heh, tis fine | 19:59 |
| Legendario | maginot, what? | 20:00 |
| maginot | Ironholds, to you configure your linux box to act as a router will not be a simple task for a newb | 20:00 |
| maginot | Legendario, well, mine is 10.0 r32, its older them yours and works fine for me | 20:00 |
| insano | thankx maginot Losha | 20:00 |
| Legendario | maginot, maybe that's the problem... | 20:00 |
| maginot | Legendario, maybe, is that the last version? | 20:01 |
| Legendario | maginot, guess so. I am using karmic standards packages... | 20:01 |
| maginot | Legendario, Hmm well, you can always try to remove and update to the version of adobe's website, sometimes newly version have bugs | 20:02 |
| Mac43DO | Hi! I installed the latest regular Ubuntu on my LG X 110. The problem is, mice are only recognized, when they are plugged-in at boot time. | 20:02 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, What mice? | 20:02 |
| Legendario | maginot, thanks... I'll see... | 20:03 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: USB | 20:03 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, is that usb, ps/2...razor, ms ? | 20:03 |
| === myles is now known as Guest16321 | ||
| maginot | Mac43DO, Did you tried to plug your mouse on different ports? | 20:03 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: Sorry, it is USB | 20:03 |
| * likemindead is running Ubuntu 10.04 Beta 1 right now and LOVING it. :D | 20:03 | |
| Mac43DO | maginot: no mesg, when I plug-in an usb-mouse at runtime | 20:04 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, okay, but you tried to change the USB port it is plugged in to see if works? And whats your mice model? | 20:05 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: I tried every USB-Port and different mice | 20:05 |
| priceisright | ubuntu cant read my cd-rom drive it cant read /dev/cdrom | 20:05 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, ok, so plug the mouse, and do a #dmesg on terminal and pastebin the output | 20:05 |
| priceisright | it is asking for drivers | 20:06 |
| blinkiz | Hello. Am using rsync to syncronize a 73GB file. It takes very long time to do checksum of these. Does it exist anyway to speed this up under Ubuntu 9.10? | 20:06 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: at boot-time? because at runtime there is no output, when I plugin the mouse. | 20:06 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, no. Boot the system without the mouse. Them plug the mouse and if it not work go to the terminal type dmesg and pastebin the output | 20:07 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: ok, just a moment | 20:07 |
| SelfAdjoint | Hi everyone... has anyone experienced irssi messing the messages? I am somewhat new to IRC and, frankly, do not understand the protocol very well | 20:07 |
| blakkheim | SelfAdjoint: while irssi is my favorite irc client and i think it's the best out there, maybe if you are new to irc you might want to try something like xchat instead | 20:08 |
| maginot | SelfAdjoint, you can try xchat for example. | 20:08 |
| domjohnson | Hello | 20:08 |
| maginot | of course, if you have a GUI | 20:08 |
| maginot | Hi | 20:08 |
| domjohnson | I just messed up my PATH thingy | 20:08 |
| domjohnson | Is there a way I can restore it? | 20:09 |
| SelfAdjoint | perhaps you | 20:09 |
| SelfAdjoint | your'right | 20:09 |
| hiexpo | hello all | 20:09 |
| Losha | blinkiz: not really. There isn't much that will magically make 73GB of data synchronize incredibly quickly. Even a straight copy would take a noticeable time. Depending on how out of sync they are, a straight copy might even be faster... | 20:09 |
| xerox1 | hi, I am looking for a tool to encrypt folders; gpg doesn't do the trick; any recommendations? | 20:09 |
| SelfAdjoint | sorry, new keyboard:-D I was hoping to get started successfully with a console client, xchat seems to do ass well, though. Thanks for the advice | 20:10 |
| blakkheim | xerox1: tar + gpg | 20:10 |
| hiexpo | i don't know what i did but somehow my wireless mouse is acting crazy it times out etc | 20:10 |
| blinkiz | Losha, The 73GB file already is copied straight over. Is keeping these two in sync am interesting of. | 20:10 |
| xerox1 | blakkheim, i don't like to use tar... something else? | 20:10 |
| blakkheim | xerox1: LUKS+dm-crypt | 20:11 |
| xerox1 | blakkheim, will try that; thanks | 20:11 |

| Losha | blinkiz: I don't know of a faster method. If it were made up of a bunch of smaller files, you could do it much more quickly by comparing modification times on the individual files I suppose... | 20:12 |

| xerox1 | magic_ninjai, so neither nor... | 20:13 |
| maginot | domjohnson, what you did to you PATH? | 20:13 |
| domjohnson | Add something else to it, and now it just says path invalid or something | 20:13 |
| domjohnson | No such directory | 20:13 |
| domjohnson | and i can't use mkdir | 20:13 |
| domjohnson | and I assume I can't use many other commands | 20:13 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: Does not help much, does it? | 20:13 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, no, it doesn't =/ Did you took to long to do dmesg after pluging the mouse? I hope to get some info about that from your kernel | 20:14 |
| xerox1 | magic_ninjai, sorry... | 20:15 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: I'm no noob with Linux. I assure you, dmesg gives NOTHING, when I plugin a mouse. That's why I'm here :-D | 20:15 |

| domjohnson | Does anyone know how to restore PATH? | 20:16 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: If there was an error message, I could handle it. | 20:16 |
| Pirate_Hunter | never mind just found the directory | 20:16 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, without a weapon and a body we don't have a crime lol | 20:16 |
| domjohnson | Just to the 'factory defaults' - didn't change anything til today | 20:16 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, you can try to see if you find something on your logs (/var/log) | 20:16 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: yeah... I hoped somebody knows this bug... | 20:17 |
| maginot | daemon.log is a good place to start | 20:17 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: does it work in windows? >: | 20:17 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: What is windows? | 20:17 |
| maginot | hehehe | 20:17 |
| Mac43DO | ^^ | 20:17 |
| maginot | great answer ;X | 20:17 |
| domjohnson | maginot - Only added something else to it, but it just says 'No such file or directory' (or whatever the equivelant is) | 20:17 |
| SuspectZero_ | how to i install grub4dos to a partition through ubuntu? | 20:17 |
| domjohnson | *and now | 20:17 |
| Mac43DO | Haven't installed something like that | 20:17 |
| maginot | domjohnson, what is the output of echo $PATH ? | 20:18 |
| domjohnson | instea dof "but it" | 20:18 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: something determining whether it's linux or hardware issue :f | 20:18 |
| domjohnson | maginot - nothing | 20:18 |
| domjohnson | :/ | 20:18 |
| maginot | domjohnson, so you removed your path. | 20:18 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: the mouse works with my kubuntu on my Desktop-PC | 20:18 |
| domjohnson | Yeah... | 20:18 |
| domjohnson | Looks like it. | 20:18 |
| maginot | domjohnson, paste bin your /etc/profile and ~/.bashrc | 20:18 |
| domjohnson | ok | 20:19 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: and it's not port issue? | 20:19 |
| DaZ | ah, nvm | 20:19 |
| priceisright | My live cd wont detect and mount my cdrom | 20:19 |
| DaZ | i'm still reading your previous messages. | 20:19 |
| priceisright | what commands do i have to do | 20:19 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: I tried every USB-port | 20:19 |
| domjohnson | maginot - sorry to sound stupid...but...which files? | 20:19 |
| maginot | domjohnson, a basic path looks like: PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/bin:/opt/local/bin | 20:20 |
| maginot | domjohnson, /etc/profile and ~/.bashrc (~ means your home directory like /home/user) | 20:20 |
| DaZ | if it was udev issue then kernel would see it anyway :f | 20:20 |
| domjohnson | maginot - there's only profile.d | 20:21 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: That is the Problem: NO kernel messages, when plugging-in a mouse | 20:21 |
| domjohnson | I beg your pardon | 20:21 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, if its a udev problem just run udevadm trigger | 20:21 |
| domjohnson | There is a profile :) | 20:21 |
| avo | hi | 20:22 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, actually doing udevadm monitor is better to see what is happening, them plug the mouse after running that | 20:22 |
| sixstring | Howdy! Can you help me un-fubar my partition tables? I fdisk'd my main drive by accident. It tells me the kernel is using the old table until reboot. How can I read the kernel's partition table? | 20:22 |
| domjohnson | maginot - http://paste.ubuntu.com/402013/ | 20:23 |
| maginot | sixstring, to recovery disk partitions testdisk is a great solution. | 20:23 |
| domjohnson | And thanks for the help, by the way :) | 20:23 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Do package repositories always have to be formatted in a proper pool to be used as a source? Theres no way to just add a folder full of packages as a source? | 20:24 |

| DrDank | hey guys whats up? | 20:25 |

| maginot | domjohnson, actually I asked you the wrong file, you should have ~/.profile with something like: http://maginot.pastebin.com/Pk0QZ8FF | 20:30 |
| domjohnson | ok | 20:30 |
| domjohnson | Sorry, i find it easier yo use the Ubuntu pastebin | 20:31 |

| elvirolo | xerox1, yes i can | 20:32 |
| elvirolo | xerox1, yes i can | 20:32 |
| maginot | domjohnson, if the path is your only problem put export PATH=$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/bin:/opt/local/bin on your ~/.bashrc | 20:33 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: No reaction, too | 20:33 |
| xerox1 | elvirolo, did you have a look at /etc/resolv.conf? | 20:33 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: modprobe usbcore? :f | 20:33 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: paste lsmod | 20:33 |
| domjohnson | Ah maginot, I've fixed it | 20:33 |
| domjohnson | Cheers ;) | 20:33 |

| xerox1 | elvirolo, and have you added your router via "route add ..."? | 20:34 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, if you do what I'm telling you, you will have the ouput needed when plugin and unpluginn the mouse. | 20:35 |
| blakkheim | mehgahbleh: looks like you're trying to open an x86_64 binary on an i686 system | 20:35 |

| alonea | is there anything better than ndiswrapper? I get DC'd a lot and have trouble connecting to WPA2. It connects to unsecured fine, but we are not allowed to use that here. | 20:36 |
| ajenbo | I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AiptekTablet but nothing changed | 20:36 |
| blakkheim | mehgahbleh: hmm then that's not the issue | 20:36 |
| mehgahbleh | Yep | 20:36 |
| mehgahbleh | Well, the thing is that I'm running everything over a shell | 20:36 |
| ajenbo | well actualy it seamed to have cause my mouse to be harder to click with | 20:36 |
| mehgahbleh | Now I don't know anything about the architecture\ | 20:36 |
| ajenbo | please help :/ | 20:36 |
| Mac43DO | maginot: No, outout with udevadm monitor | 20:36 |
| mehgahbleh | But even if i restart my desktop, all my instances keep on running | 20:36 |
| elvirolo | xerox1, ah, no... should i do something like route add 192.168.0.1 ? | 20:36 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: it doesn't make sense at all so it's probably ubuntu feature. | 20:36 |
| AbortD | does xubuntu run on its own libs or gnomes libs? | 20:37 |
| mehgahbleh | I tried logging out and back in, but that didn't work | 20:37 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: Yes, very confusing | 20:37 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: i'd shoot it's power saving related | 20:37 |
| Myrtti | ader10: may I pm? | 20:37 |
| ader10 | yes | 20:38 |
| xerox1 | elvirolo, "sudo route add default gw <router-ip>" | 20:38 |
| maginot | Mac43DO, if you have no output this only means one thing, its your kernel who isn't recognizing the mouse, trying update the kernel is a good ideia, other ideia is to boot with your mouse plugged in (its when it works) and see what lsmod shows, boot wihout the mouse and put the mouse and see what lsmod shows, compare the results to see which module isn't being loaded. | 20:38 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: No, the LG wasn't in powersaving-modus | 20:38 |
| elvirolo | xerox1, thank you so much man it works | 20:38 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: usb is not hotpluggable at all. | 20:38 |

| DaZ | bencc: it's kwrite shortcut, i thought maybe it works in gedit as well <: | 20:42 |
| ashwani | can any one tell me how to dual boot two linux on single machine one is ubuntu n second is rhel | 20:42 |
| andrew________ | blakkheim: Or if the requests are going to anywhere except localhost? | 20:42 |
| AbortD | alonea i just bought my laptop and it has a atheros card | 20:42 |
| blakkheim | andrew________: just make sure chromium (or chrome or whatever) is set to use your local ssh proxy | 20:42 |
| === Mowiiii`Aw is now known as Mowee | ||
| blakkheim | andrew________: no the requests will go to your ssh server | 20:42 |
| AbortD | audo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty-generic | 20:42 |
| alonea | AbortD: Yeah, I got this 2 weeks ago | 20:42 |
| AbortD | i meant | 20:42 |
| AbortD | got mine feb second | 20:42 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: Ok, now I have some error-messages in dmesg regarding the usb-ports. Something with cannot reset and cannot disable port 6 | 20:43 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | (I just started using chrome and love the bookmark sync feature) | 20:43 |
| ashwani | can any one tell me how to dual boot two linux on single machine one is ubuntu n second is rhel | 20:43 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: just pastebin it | 20:43 |
| blakkheim | !repeat | ashwani | 20:43 |
| ubottu | ashwani: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 20:43 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ashwani: Install one and then install the other. | 20:43 |
| andrew________ | blakkheim: I thought that chrome would send all requests to the local port ssh/chrome is set to, and then it'd go from there to the ssh server? | 20:43 |
| robo | hi: so I try to re-ip a machine by editing /etc/network/interfaces and change the ip, then run /etc/init.d/network restart -- when I do that it kills networking completely. (ifconfig no longer shows eth0). Any advise? | 20:43 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: Ok | 20:44 |
| AbortD | does xubuntu run on its own libs or gnomes libs? | 20:44 |
| ashwani | the second os does not shows the entry of other | 20:44 |
| blakkheim | andrew________: you setup a local forwarded port and anything using that proxy (localhost:portyouchose) will be tunneled to your ssh server, in chromium's settings you will put localhost:portyouchose for the SOCKS proxy | 20:44 |
| tucemiux | Here's a funky one, anyone knows if it's possible to use grub to dual boot 2 different hard drives? Basically I have 2 hard drives on my laptop. One hard drive has my working setup, dual booting with XP and ubuntu. I want to use my second hard drive for testing purposes, Im going to install windows 7 first and then lucid | 20:44 |
| DaZ | AbortD: xfce runs on gtk2 like gnome | 20:44 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | AbortD: look up xfce on packages.ubuntu.com itll sjow ya what its deps are. | 20:44 |
| alonea | AbortD: will undo the ndiswrapper shortly and see if that works instead. | 20:44 |
| blakkheim | andrew________: i use firefox and it works fine, never tried chrome/ium so i don't know the exact wording | 20:45 |
| kruzen | Hi all.. "Unable to load the kernel module 'nvida.ko'......" | 20:45 |
| kruzen | some help? | 20:45 |
| AbortD | alonea i can almost guarantee it will i had the exact same problem | 20:45 |
| AbortD | where it disconnect and shows the service wrong | 20:45 |
| andrew________ | blakkheim: OKies, will try wireshark now :) | 20:45 |
| AbortD | DaZ, so everything with gnome will run on xfce? | 20:45 |
| alonea | AbortD: and I wont use Ndiswrapper at all correct? | 20:46 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: http://pastebin.com/T8L1saSS | 20:46 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | kruzen: Oiffical driver or repo driver? | 20:46 |
| DaZ | AbortD: why wouldn't it run? | 20:46 |
| AbortD | unless that package installs it alonea and i dont think it will | 20:46 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: Mouse and scanner are plugged in | 20:46 |
| AbortD | dunno | 20:46 |
| jff400 | hi | 20:46 |
| AbortD | never used xfce | 20:46 |
| kruzen | LinuxGuy2009: official | 20:46 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | AbortD: You can run any app you want in any desktop environment or window manager. | 20:46 |
| AbortD | yeah but i dont want to download every lib for that window manager | 20:47 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | kruzen: Which ubuntu release 9.10? | 20:47 |
| AbortD | like running kde stuff in gnome | 20:47 |
| AbortD | i downloaded the wrong version of ubuntu ;/ | 20:47 |
| kruzen | LinuxGuy2009: yeap. | 20:47 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | AbortD: So what are you asking then? | 20:47 |
| AbortD | i got xfce instead of gnome | 20:47 |
| Pirate_Hunter | just updated lilo got the following warnings, wondering if they can be ignored - http://paste.ubuntu.com/402021/ ? | 20:47 |
| alonea | ok, one quick question, how do you bring up the taskmanager? wasn't it shift+esp or something? | 20:47 |
| AbortD | and wanted to run gnome programs in xfce without having bulky libs everywhere | 20:48 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | kruzen: Yeah i never had any luck with 9.10 myself on 3 machines Ive tested on. | 20:48 |
| AbortD | alonea system monitor? | 20:48 |
| hiexpo | need help configuring my mouse is doing weird stuff | 20:48 |
| voltax | #debian-es-cachondeo | 20:48 |
| alonea | AbortD: yeah, I guess its called that | 20:48 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | AbortD: Well you cant change what deps a package depends on. They are what they are. | 20:48 |
| AbortD | system - admin - system monitor | 20:49 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | AbortD: Only thing you can do is look for alternatives with no gnome deps. | 20:49 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: dunnolol >: | 20:49 |
| kruzen | LinuxGuy2009: so what do I do? =x | 20:49 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: if there are any updates, install them. | 20:49 |
| AbortD | LinuxGuy2009, but does xfce use the same libs as gnome? | 20:49 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: Seems to be a kernel-bug | 20:49 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | kruzen: I personally have reverted back to 9.04 and its running great. Just sitting back and waiting for 10.04 final. | 20:49 |
| alonea | AbortD: no, the thing that lists stuff that you can kill. Or was that app KDE only? | 20:50 |
| andreas__ | how can i add netbook remix to the desktop edition | 20:50 |
| AbortD | alonea system monitor :P | 20:50 |
| AbortD | unless yours is a different version | 20:50 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | AbortD: I already said packages.ubuntu.com and search for xfce and it will tell you what libraries it uses. Its not hard. | 20:50 |
| AbortD | didnt see that | 20:50 |
| alonea | AbortD: I can't see it I guess. I have an application that is stuck on my screen | 20:50 |
| mehgahbleh | Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 | 20:51 |
| mehgahbleh | Anyone knows what this means? | 20:51 |
| andreas__ | how can i add netbook remix to the desktop edition | 20:51 |
| kruzen | LinuxGuy2009: ok..and thanks for your time =) | 20:51 |
| snow_ | why velvet is not in ubuntu apt-get list ? | 20:51 |
| _silentAssassin | anders_: u can just install it thru apt-get ... !! though i am not sure you would be impressed with using it on desktop edition | 20:51 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | hello, is there an alternative to cheese? | 20:51 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | andreas__: Just install ubuntu-netbook-remix meta package | 20:51 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | kruzen: sure | 20:51 |
| AbortD | alonea, open terminal and type xkill | 20:51 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: A lot of Updates ;-) | 20:51 |
| AbortD | then click the program | 20:51 |
| ibnulislam | Can I upgrade my Karmic yo Lucid by alternate cd iso image? | 20:52 |
| alonea | AbortD: THankyou! | 20:52 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ibnulislam: Lucid isnt done yet | 20:52 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | #ubuntu+1 | 20:52 |
| AbortD | alonea np | 20:53 |
| Flannel | ibnulislam: But yes, Alternate CDs can be used to upgrade. | 20:53 |
| _silentAssassin | ibnulislam: yes u can | 20:53 |
| phantasam | jaunty whit all updates + some tweaking is best.. i have almost one year uptime no problems ;) | 20:53 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | phantasam: I agree Jaunty was made pretty good. | 20:53 |
| ibnulislam | I am getting alternate cd image. DO I need to burn it on CD medium or can I use it without it? | 20:54 |
| switch10_ | when writing a script, why should I use the #!/bin/bash on the first line. The script runs the same with or without it? | 20:54 |
| phantasam | sryy this was for private message lol.. i use xubuntu btw :) | 20:54 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ibnulislam: You can unetbootin it. | 20:54 |
| _silentAssassin | ibnulislam: u can mount it and then upgrade LinuxGuy2009 | 20:54 |
| ibnulislam | LinuxGuy2009: But I need to upgrade from karmic? | 20:55 |
| Flannel | ibnulislam: You do need to be on Karmic (or Hardy) to upgrade to Lucid. But again, Lucid won't be out for a month and is still development software. You should strongly consider waiting for the final release | 20:55 |
| _silentAssassin | ibnulislam: do you have the iso image of ubuntu alternate ?? | 20:55 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ibnulislam: sudo mount image.iso -o loop /folder/ | 20:56 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ibnulislam: add as repo source and go to town maybe? | 20:56 |
| ibnulislam | _silentAssassin: getting it | 20:56 |
| hiexpo | need help reconfiguring my mouse its driving me crazy | 20:56 |
| _silentAssassin | Flannel: though lucid isnt out ..... still its good !! few bugs and inconsistencies .... but its being rectified pretty quicky !! | 20:56 |
| Flannel | _silentAssassin: Especially in this channel, please don't recommend Lucid until it's stable | 20:57 |
| phantasam | did you guys know for remastersys i manage to create my own xubuntu distribution whit it.. you can tweak system your way and add or remove any app's and make your own iso derivate of k-x-(ubuntu) | 20:57 |
| _silentAssassin | Flannel: sorrry !! | 20:57 |
| Flannel | squizzy: No worries | 20:57 |
| Flannel | _silentAssassin: ^^ | 20:57 |
| squizzy | oh yea Flannel? | 20:58 |
| squizzy | no worries unless the sky is falling amIright? | 20:58 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | phantasam: Yeah I havent used that app much but have used UCK (ubuntu customization kit) very cool what you can do with them. | 20:59 |
| guntbert | switch10_: because the shell needs a way to identify the command interpreter to use | 20:59 |
| MarkProffitt | I am having nothing but trouble with Ubuntu. So my patience is near the end. My current problem is the sound. It works for Audacity but not for anything else. | 20:59 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | MarkProffitt: 9.10 and all updates? | 21:00 |
| MarkProffitt | Yes all updates | 21:00 |
| phantasam | UCK is great .. remastersys is for making distribution for you and others to share :) | 21:00 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | MarkProffitt: Yeah one of the reasons why I reverted back to 9.04 and am currently waiting for 10.04 | 21:00 |
| alonea | AbortD: ok, no wifi with that. Was I supposed to do something after I installed that? | 21:00 |
| phantasam | ah.. sharing is great :) | 21:00 |
| MarkProffitt | So I need to format the drive and install 9.04 ? | 21:00 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | phantasam: Yeah UCK does that to. hehe | 21:01 |
| phantasam | srry i dint know :) | 21:01 |
| phantasam | i ws thinking of other app lol | 21:01 |
| Timewall | Hey, is there anyone that can help a newb with an overscan problem? | 21:01 |
| MarkProffitt | Is there anyway to revert to an older version while still running Ubuntu? | 21:01 |
| blakkheim | MarkProffitt: no | 21:02 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | phantasam: Really basic use for those is to make a slipstreamed DVD with all updates. First time I used it thats what i used it for. | 21:02 |
| bobby | Not that I know of | 21:02 |
| alonea | AbortD: and there is nothing listed under Proprietary drivers | 21:02 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Timewall: Monitor issue? | 21:02 |
| chrissyB | can i download and install w/o having/needing a disc or usb? | 21:03 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: Download what? | 21:03 |
| chrissyB | ubuntu | 21:03 |
| javier__ | ??? | 21:03 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: Sure you can always download it. | 21:03 |
| phantasam | chrissyB: unetbootin or wubi | 21:03 |
| Timewall | Yep - I'm running Xubuntu 9.10, my resolution is 1280x720 - although my HDTV is 1280x768 - but my screen overscans to the right - I can fix it with the tv's auto adjust, but it returns if the tv turns off | 21:04 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: Installing you need a CD or external drive | 21:04 |
| chrissyB | but it just says how to burn a disc | 21:04 |
| rautamiekka | Is it possible to force a program like grep to for one time start at lowest possible priority (or "nice value" as known in Linux) so that it uses up as least CPU as possible ? | 21:04 |
| === FeiRuoWa is now known as zz_FeiRuoWa | ||
| chrissyB | so if i download it i can go from there? | 21:04 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: Do you have a specific question on how to install? | 21:04 |
| phantasam | rautamiekka: use asunder | 21:04 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: If you want to wipe off everything and install you need a CD or external flashdrive etc. | 21:05 |
| chrissyB | i know how to install but i didnt know if i could do it w/o having to burn a disc | 21:05 |
| phantasam | yes you can chrissyB | 21:05 |
| phantasam | use unetbootin or wubi | 21:06 |
| phantasam | or install by network whit mini.cd iso | 21:06 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | phantasam: Umm news flash unetbootin requires an external drive | 21:06 |
| rautamiekka | phantasam: I think you accidently gave me wrong name cuz that program is a CD ripper | 21:06 |
| chrissyB | okay so i DO need an external drive?\ | 21:07 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | rautamiekka: Video card? | 21:07 |
| guntbert | somehow the icon for one thumb drive got changed from the "usb symbol" to a "document" - how can I change that icon? - or Where is that icon determined? | 21:07 |
| alonea | chrissyB: USB flash drive should do it, Its how I installed on my netbook | 21:07 |
| rautamiekka | LinuxGuy2009: He told me to use asunder to force a program to start with lowest possible priority but that program is CD ripper | 21:07 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: You havent given any details if you have windows or not and if you want to do a clean install or side by side with windows, or wubi to install inside of windows. | 21:07 |
| phantasam | rutamiekka: my fault | 21:07 |
| chrissyB | no jst ubuntu will be fine | 21:08 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | rautamiekka: Im sure theres a way to pipe that to a command for priority or some way. | 21:08 |
| rautamiekka | phantasam: It's ok, that can happen to everyone in IRC channel of this size :D | 21:08 |
| chrissyB | id like to just download it and launch it off the hard drive if possible | 21:08 |
| phantasam | cya all :) | 21:09 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | rautamiekka: If you want to clean install you need a CD-R/RW DVD-+R/RW or flashdrive. | 21:09 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sorry | 21:09 |
| rautamiekka | LOL LinuxGuy2009, you failed :D | 21:09 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | lol | 21:09 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: If you want to clean install you need a CD-R/RW DVD-+R/RW or flashdrive. | 21:09 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | my bad | 21:09 |
| rautamiekka | It's ok :) | 21:09 |
| chrissyB | ok thanks people | 21:10 |
| Timewall | so what should be my first step toward fixing the overscan? | 21:10 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Timewall: I missed what video card you have. | 21:10 |

| rautamiekka | LinuxGuy2009: Well, Google never was my friend | 21:14 |
| MarkProffitt | The problem I am having with the audio seems to be something simple to fix. The sound is working in Audacity, it can specify hw:0,0. The other sound programs can't specify so they must be using something else. How do I change the default for the whole machine? | 21:14 |

| guntbert | LinuxGuy2009: please drop it - you first reaction to a question was "did you google it"? | 21:16 |
| guntbert | *your | 21:16 |
| ChogyDan | MarkProffitt: can you run a command called alsamixer? | 21:17 |

| nareshsankapelly | hi | 21:18 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: New kernel, new udev, and now it works perfectly, thank you :-) | 21:18 |
| nareshsankapelly | :) | 21:18 |
| ChogyDan | macman_: I use a firefox extension myself, I think it is called downthemall or something? | 21:18 |
| DaZ | Mac43DO: you should do that in the first place :f | 21:18 |
| rautamiekka | LinuxGuy2009: That article might do it. Do you happen to remember the lowest possible "nice value" ? | 21:19 |
| Mac43DO | DaZ: Yeah right, but it was a new install-DVD, so I didn't thought it was THAT necessary | 21:19 |
| macman_ | ChogyDan: how accurate is downthemall ? | 21:19 |
| MarkProffitt | ChogyDan alsamixer displays a set of text based volume controls. It doesn't seem to have any way to set the audio device | 21:19 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | rautamiekka: man nice or nice --help | 21:19 |
| alonea | macman_: DownThemAll is awesome. Used that for years. | 21:20 |
| guntbert | rautamiekka: the higher the nice value - the nicer the app is to the system - you want a high nice value (20 if I remember correctly ) | 21:20 |
| rautamiekka | LinuxGuy2009, guntbert: A'ight. Thanks for your helps :) | 21:20 |
| guntbert | rautamiekka: have fun :) | 21:21 |
| ChogyDan | macman_: I don't think it is accurate, I have downthemall, but it might be a different extension that I use. You should just search the extension site. I think there is a bunch of them | 21:21 |
| macman_ | so i installed it .. im at a movie .. now what ? | 21:21 |
| Mac43DO | Daz, maginot, thank you :-) | 21:21 |
| Mac43DO | Bye! | 21:22 |
| DaZ | bye. | 21:22 |
| macman_ | so i installed it .. im at a movie .. now what ? | 21:22 |
| macman_ | oops my bad for repeating | 21:22 |

| Pirate_Hunter | the prescot cpu (2.66 Ghz) isn't picking hyper threading so it shows only one processor instead of two, how can I fix this? | 21:28 |
| ChogyDan | Pirate_Hunter: How did you find that out? | 21:28 |
| blakkheim | Pirate_Hunter: check your bios | 21:29 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ChogyDan, dmesg | 21:29 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | pauloyu: I think you might have to make a fstab entry for it. | 21:29 |
| blakkheim | Pirate_Hunter: grep name /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l | 21:29 |
| chrissyB | do i burn the iso as if it were going on a CD to my desktop,then move it into the thumb drive? | 21:29 |
| pauloyu | I am sorry, but I am quite new with ubuntu. What do you mean with fstab? | 21:29 |
| Pirate_Hunter | blakkheim, I did and can't find the option to turn it on on the ibm think centre and will that command | 21:29 |
| blakkheim | !fstab > pauloyu | 21:30 |
| ubottu | pauloyu, please see my private message | 21:30 |

| pauloyu | How do I get in to the private mesg? | 21:30 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: Just point the app to the ISO and fat32 formattted drive and then reboot to install. | 21:30 |

| Linux_Titan | LinuxGuy2009, I have done that, I know that part well. The problem lies in the fact that despite my chmod -x command the file remains unexecutable | 21:33 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Linux_Titan: Go into gnome and check with right click properties to see if its set to executable. Double check thats all. | 21:34 |
| Linux_Titan | LinuxGuy2009, btw all of that can be done simply by opening a terminal window and typing "sudo stop gdm" | 21:34 |
| Typos_King | Linux_Titan: chmod a+x FILENAME | 21:34 |
| Linux_Titan | Typos_King, I will try that | 21:34 |

| Linux_Titan | Typos_King, that did the trick. What is the "a" argument for? | 21:35 |
| da_germanium | hi | 21:35 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | chrissyB: No this has already been explained to you. Unetbootin is what you need to transfer the ISO to the flashdrive. | 21:35 |
| neil_d | chrissyB: I don't see why not... | 21:35 |
| Typos_King | chrissyB: no, but you can boot with the live-cd and it has an option in the desktop menus for 'make startup usb' which makes one :) | 21:35 |

| freerunner | it said it was before i burnt it do i have to check again after i burn? | 22:13 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | SJrX3: unplug the mouse and plug it back in | 22:14 |
| lovinglinux | Typos_King: I can't, is for packaging a Firefox extension, so it needs to be just the relative path. I'm going to try it anyway. | 22:14 |
| masu3701 | theres an application i installed in the past to reduce the size but forgot where its located | 22:14 |
| soreau | masu3701: Which graphics driver are you using? | 22:14 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | freerunner: If your burning app doesnt verify then yeah its a good idea. Its good to rule that out. | 22:14 |
| Typos_King | lovinglinux: relative paths IS the default, -j means no paths at all | 22:14 |

| freerunner | it does verify but ill check again just to be safe. Would hate to waste time on something that simple | 22:15 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | freerunner: md5sum /dev/cdrom or whatever | 22:15 |
| slogum | #android | 22:15 |
| slogum | oops | 22:15 |
| Typos_King | . the live-cd have a self-integrity check option from its menu | 22:15 |
| freerunner | ok ill go check that and try again | 22:16 |
| freerunner | ill get back to you if it doesnt work | 22:16 |
| lovinglinux | Typos_King: if i use only the -r option, then it stores the directory tree all the way back to home. The resulting file is not useful, because Firefox doesn't recognize it as an installation file. | 22:17 |

| pranay_09 | soreau: no there aren't any i checked it now it | 22:35 |
| pranay_09 | Typos_King: it all started when i updated my system | 22:35 |

| sebsebseb | ok thanks tucemiux__ soreau | 22:36 |
| Typos_King | pranay_09: from 9.04 to 9.1? | 22:36 |
| soreau | masu3701: Ok so you have two displays and you want to change which one to what resolution? | 22:36 |
| pranay_09 | soreau: ya it does but i need to do it eveytime i log in | 22:36 |
| lovinglinux | Typos_King: thanks for your help. I managed to do it by 'cd' into the directory and creating the zip file on the same directory. If I put another path to save the zip file, it saves the full path. Very weird behavior in my opinion. | 22:36 |
| soreau | masu3701: Looks like they are in clone mode | 22:37 |

| hink | skrite: nice | 22:37 |
| soreau | masu3701: So you want to change both the resolutions? | 22:37 |
| Typos_King | lovinglinux: with -9r, no -j, adding $HOME will give an absolute path | 22:37 |
| pranay_09 | Typos_King: i can't remember all the packages , there was about 100 MB | 22:37 |
| masu3701 | soreau: yes...i want it to be smaller | 22:37 |
| Typos_King | 100mbs? | 22:38 |
| soreau | masu3701: So you want both screens to have a lesser resolution? | 22:38 |
| Typos_King | pranay_09: it updated from... 9.1 to 9.1? | 22:38 |
| masu3701 | soreau: when pluged to the external monitor yes | 22:38 |
| Typos_King | doesn't sound much of an upgrade per se | 22:38 |
| pranay_09 | Typos_King: i didn't upgrade the system , only updated it ,installed latest packages | 22:39 |
| soreau | masu3701: So you want them both to be 800x600? | 22:39 |
| pranay_09 | Typos_King; as suggested by the update manager | 22:39 |
| masu3701 | soreau: 800x600 makes it bigger | 22:40 |
| masu3701 | soreau: i want it to be 1280x1024 | 22:40 |
| Typos_King | pranay_09: heh, as suggested, ohh no you're driving a 1999 car, you must update to 2010, anything wrong it? no really is running fine, but you must update, for.... X reason heh | 22:40 |
| masu3701 | soreau: 800x600 is one of the option in grandr...but its bigger | 22:40 |
| soreau | masu3701: Alright, hang on | 22:40 |
| Typos_King | pranay_09: if it ain't broken don't fix it :P, but anyhow, you may want to try a dpkg-reconfigure on the gnome GDM and the window manager | 22:41 |

| masu3701 | is there any cool games for ubuntu? | 23:05 |
| rww | ubottu: games | masu3701 | 23:05 |
| ubottu | masu3701: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 23:05 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: you can always bypass gdm and log into x directly | 23:05 |
| Andy80 | hi | 23:06 |
| Typos_King | allo | 23:06 |
| bdpatch | gogeta: i have tried that .... usually the first window i open or the first time I scroll it will lock again | 23:06 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: you loged in via text and used startx | 23:07 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: sounds like a video driver issue | 23:07 |
| bdpatch | gogeta: yeah from the recovery console | 23:07 |
| tucemiux__ | masu3701, try urban terror | 23:07 |
| masu3701 | tucemiux: how do i install it? | 23:07 |
| bdpatch | gogeta: yeah i have been trying to install the PPA drivers ... but it has not worked | 23:07 |
| Andy80 | I've a (maybe stupid) problem with a "Custom Application Launcher": if I start an application from the terminal doing: ./ts3client_runscript.sh it runs fine. If I create a "Custom Application Launcher" choosing that script, the application is not started and I cannot understand why O_o any idea? | 23:08 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: have you tryed the offical drivers | 23:08 |
| tucemiux__ | masu3701, download the linux version, unzip, then just run the executable, you dont need to install it | 23:08 |
| zlj | neil_d: so you have placed this config to /etc/xinetd.d/ dir and restarted xinetd service, right? | 23:08 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: should install from bash mode | 23:08 |
| bdpatch | gogeta: k ... whats the command for that ? | 23:08 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: is it a nivida card | 23:08 |
| bdpatch | gogeta: yes 7800 gt | 23:08 |
| tucemiux__ | masu3701, UrT 4.1 already came out, im going to download it right now, I have the older versio, I think it's 3.x | 23:09 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: have you tryed the deb | 23:09 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: in the repos | 23:09 |
| masu3701 | tucemiux: where do you get it from? | 23:09 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: is the .sh set to be executable? | 23:10 |
| bdpatch | gogeta: i don't think so ... installing drivers in linux has been kinda confusing for me .... i am still fairly new with linux | 23:10 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: normaly ubuntu has a deb of the nivida bonarys | 23:10 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: when executing using the 'dot' . not sure that's a requirement | 23:10 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: its easy enough | 23:10 |
| neil_d | zlj: yes.. I appear to have fixed it.. I need to add a line to /etc/services | 23:10 |
| Andy80 | Typos_King: yes, the .sh is set to +x | 23:11 |
| bdpatch | gogeta: k ... is there a good how to i can read somewhere ... i have not had good luck searching for it so far | 23:11 |
| Rabbitnightmare | quick question how do I update 9.10? | 23:11 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: rw-rw-rwx? | 23:11 |
| illusive | rabbit -- 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' | 23:12 |
| zlj | neil_d: ah, cool then. btw, I used approx in a daemon mode, controlling it via standard init.d script | 23:12 |
| tucemiux__ | Rabbitnightmare, sudo apt-get install update | 23:12 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: the last 3 will be the ones that'll allow anyone to execute it | 23:12 |
| Rabbitnightmare | oh haha I forgot the install thanks | 23:12 |
| Andy80 | Typos_King: 755 permissions.... the only difference is starting from a terminal or starting from a "Custom Application Launcher" | 23:12 |
| tucemiux__ | Rabbitnightmare, sudo apt-get update | 23:12 |
| gogeta | bdpatch: did you get those commands i sent | 23:13 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: any errors? | 23:13 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: are you also providing an absolute path or just relative? | 23:13 |
| martines | hey folks !! | 23:13 |
| Rabbitnightmare | lol couldnt find package update | 23:13 |
| Andy80 | Typos_King: I cannot see anything... neither errors... | 23:13 |
| Andy80 | Typos_King: absolute.... but the script contains relative paths | 23:14 |
| dremov | hi! I think i have not very hard question. But I just cant find answer with google, so i want to ask: may be somebody know: | 23:14 |
| dremov | I have wireless connection and pass hash stored in my keyring at gnome. I want to move this hash to another laptop because I just forgot my pass. Is it some way? Can I just copy some file of keyring? | 23:14 |
| Andy80 | Typos_King: can I copy-paste the script somewhere? | 23:14 |
| Stupendoussteve | Rabbitnightmare: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 23:14 |
| martines | My nfs serverpartitions are really slow, is there someone who can help me with this problem? | 23:14 |

| JAMD456 | How do I remove items from Ubuntu's open with dialogue box? | 23:15 |
| JAMD456 | There are two many duplicate items listed there | 23:15 |
| trism | JAMD456: you can remove them on the Open With tab of the file's properties in nautilus | 23:16 |
| frxstrem | is there any way I can add a shortcut in Ubuntu's "Applications" menu that opens a directory in the file browser? | 23:17 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: looks ok.... I run .sh files as well from menus, and they run fine :| | 23:17 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: may be some setting in the desktop link | 23:18 |
| Typos_King | frxstrem: drag/drop no dice? | 23:18 |
| frxstrem | Typos_King: I tried it - didn't work | 23:18 |
| Madwill | when talking about boot priority 20 is more important then say 91 ? | 23:18 |
| Madwill | what is the deal with priority | 23:19 |
| JAMD456 | trism Oddly enough I tried that it will not let me remove anything | 23:19 |
| Andy80 | Typos_King: maybe the problem is that it uses some libraries that are in that folder? | 23:19 |
| Madwill | if i lower apache priority will i encounter more problems ? | 23:19 |
| Madwill | or it will start later in the boot ? | 23:19 |
| Madwill | does anybody know ? | 23:19 |
| Typos_King | Andy80: so long they're found in $PATH, I'd think that'd do | 23:20 |
| dremov | Dup: somebody knows where gnome store keyring files and is it ok to copy them from one laptop to another? | 23:20 |
| masu3701 | how big is urban terror? | 23:20 |
| Madwill | i must be invisible | 23:20 |
| Typos_King | hehe | 23:21 |
| Typos_King | Madwill: haven't checked the differences on boot priorities myself, iirc is just an order on what service goes before others | 23:21 |
| Madwill | Thanks | 23:22 |
| Typos_King | dremov: if anywhere I'd think /etc | 23:22 |
| dremov | Typos_King: May be you have an idea how to find it there if it there? | 23:23 |
| Typos_King | dremov can't say | 23:25 |
| callaghan | I have an Ubuntu cd here, is there an easy way to find out if it is a 32 or 64 bit version without booting it? | 23:26 |
| Myrtti | callaghan: md5sums? | 23:26 |
| Myrtti | callaghan: or the disc name? | 23:26 |
| Justus | in /etc/apt/preferences I have pinned * to v=9.04 and php5-cgi to v=9.10, php5-cgi has priority 1001, * has 1000, if I do apt-get update will php5-cgi from 9.10 be used? | 23:27 |
| Justus | or does * set to 1000 prevent it from being installed? | 23:27 |
| Flannel | callaghan: Theres a file on the root of the disc, README.diskdefines | 23:27 |
| Flannel | Myrtti: ^^ | 23:27 |
| jrib | Justus: apt-cache policy php5-cgi would tell you | 23:28 |
| Justus | ^thanks jrib | 23:28 |
| callaghan | Myrtti: the disc is called "Ubuntu 9.10" and I don't have an md5 sum to compare... | 23:28 |
| dremov | ok, i just find something in my ~/.gnome2/keyrings | 23:28 |
| Justus | first answer I get for my questions and it's useful :D | 23:28 |
| Justus | yay | 23:28 |
| callaghan | Flannel: ah, thanks | 23:28 |
| Myrtti | Flannel: learn something new everyday... | 23:28 |
| sebsebseb | callaghan: Got the ISO? | 23:28 |
| callaghan | sebsebseb: no | 23:29 |
| dremov | but i think it could be useless on other machine.. | 23:29 |
| dremov | in any case. Thanks for your time | 23:29 |
| Roasted_ | so I have two identical computers... ubuntu on one, and the other belongs to my parents. I went to put ubuntu on that and when I boot up to 9.10 it says "input not supported" what the???? | 23:29 |
| sebsebseb | callaghan: Downloaded or offical? When it comes to downloading from the website it's 32bit by default. | 23:30 |
| rrogers | I have just done the last update inside of Karmic x86_64 and the new kernel version -21 won't bring up the logon screen. How do I report the bug? X server kernel? No emergancy I just booted into -20 | 23:30 |
| geoffmcc | quick google Roasted says its your lcd monitor | 23:30 |
| martines | My nfs serverpartitions are really slow, is there someone who can help me with this problem? | 23:30 |
| callaghan | sebsebseb: downloaded, but I got it already (32bit), thx | 23:32 |
| arand | rrogers: "ubuntu-bug linux" to report against kernel I assume. | 23:34 |
| neil_d | zlj: approx seems to be working great atm. | 23:36 |
| rrogers | arand: thanks will do, let me triage | 23:36 |

| knoppies | Guest49974, Give me a sec, I think there is. Let me see if I can find it. | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | Guest49974: wipe the hard drive... and install ... win98? or ... freeBSD or such :) | 23:50 |
| DopeGhoti | Guest49974: apt-get --purge remove apache2 mysql-server php5 ← that should do the trick. | 23:51 |
| DopeGhoti | Guest49974: You'll still have the L from LAMP though of course :) | 23:51 |

| asdff | Hey I was wondering how to find out if my graphics card supported dual monitors and if so, how to set this up using Karmic. I have a feeling my gpu doesn't support it though. Anyone help :S? | 23:52 |
| slackster | Hi, I have a device that auto mounts as a read only file system (usb mp3player) I want to add music. I would like to try and mount it manually to see if there is any change. Can I get the device name somehow from it while it is mounted? | 23:52 |
| knoppies | asdff, does it have two video outputs on the back of the card? | 23:53 |
| jrib | slackster: « mount » | 23:53 |
| DopeGhoti | slackster: yes, while it's mounted, run the command 'mount' which will show all mounted filesystems | 23:53 |
| asdff | knoppies: it has liek, a green one, a white one and a blue one? | 23:53 |
| slackster | jrib: thanks, DopeGhoti | 23:53 |
| knoppies | asdff, we talking about a video card right? the white one is probably DVI, the blue one is VGA, idk what the green one is. Chances are it will support duel monitors. Do you know what model card you have? | 23:54 |
| asdff | knoppies: :D. And no lol sorry I am not very techy I am afraid. | 23:54 |
| MarcoPau | hello, I just launched ubuntu live with linux live key from windows. dmesg won't show the ext3 partitions on my computer, do you know how to access them? | 23:54 |
| slackster | jrib, DopeGhoti: /dev/sdd on /media/CC92-34D3 type vfat (ro,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=devkit,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,flush) | 23:54 |
| asdff | knoppies: it is nvidia though* | 23:54 |
| DopeGhoti | MarcoPau: sudo fdisk -l should show all partitions | 23:54 |
| slackster | any thoughts jrib, DopeGhoti? | 23:55 |
| DopeGhoti | slackster: that's the one. see the 'ro'? that's 'read only'. | 23:55 |
| Typos_King | Guest49974: I was serious btw :P, the 'L' in lamp stands for 'linux' soooo, how else are you going to remove it? :P | 23:55 |
| slackster | DopeGhoti: I thought so. :) | 23:55 |
| knoppies | asdff, Last time I tried duel monitors My one monitor was much smaller/older than the other so I coudnt get a nice resolution, but we can give it a try. Have you installed the nvidia drivers? | 23:55 |
| slackster | DopeGhoti: sould I just try to mount it manually then? | 23:55 |
| DopeGhoti | slackster: if you have an entry in /etc/fstab for that device, see if that option is specified. If not, add the 'rw' option | 23:56 |
| === root is now known as Guest28678 | ||
| asdff | knoppies: I'm not sure man, do you need different drivers for multi-display? Cause I am capped atm so downloading > 5 mb would be a hassle. | 23:56 |
| slackster | DopeGhoti: ok, where is fstab? | 23:56 |
| DopeGhoti | slackster: /etc/ | 23:56 |
| slackster | oh.. never mind. sorry | 23:56 |
| slackster | read too fast | 23:56 |
| asdff | knoppies: also my monitors are almost the same size. almost. | 23:56 |
| DopeGhoti | slackster: no worries :) | 23:56 |
| knoppies | asdff, No you shouldnt, but using the nvidia X server settings manager would make things easier. It matters more on their resolution than their size, but its good to have simmilar sized monitors too, otherwise something appears huge on one monitor and tiny on another. | 23:57 |
| slackster | DopeGhoti: ok, I'll try to add an entry, thanks | 23:57 |
| knoppies | Click System->administration-> and see if you can see Nvidia X Server Settings (it should have a green icon) | 23:58 |
| DopeGhoti | slackster: cheers :) | 23:58 |
| Guest49974 | ok i did apt-get --purge remove apache2 mysql-server | 23:58 |
| asdff | knoppies: Sweet. Cause I tried selecting twin view from the x server settings manager, but it was greyed out. So any help would be muchly appreciate :). | 23:58 |
