geminidominoBefore I have to wipe again, is there some way to "force"/specify monitor settings rather than trying to make ubuntu recognize them. I've tried modifying xorg.conf, but no dice.00:02
jimbeam12thx00:03
daftykinspatrick__: it's possible it was as simple as the network manager, but you didn't have the interface before so that was odd. i've no idea about studio to be honest :)00:03
orochiback.  same problem.  getting an error message on youtube when i try to play a video that says i don't have the latest flash player or javascript is disabled.00:03

RedXIIII'm having a problem side-by-side installing ubuntu 9.10 with xp00:09
orochiand everything is set up00:09
RedXIIII get to the partition manager but it doesn't give me the "side-by-side" option.00:09
lsj85@redxiii are you trying to install from live cd00:09
v3rr3zhow do i Turn on sound support from kernel config00:09
RedXIIIinstalling from live dvd 9.1000:10
RedXIIII hit "Install Ubuntu" and went through the prompts00:10
RedXIIImaybe I should just boot to the desktop and do it using gparted?00:10
histoRedXIII: you mean dual boot00:10
arandRedXIII: What partitions are already on the drive? only XP?00:10
lars__i already got aircrack-ng, airmon-ng, macchanger and airodump_ng...do i need to enable anything so they can pick up a wifi signal00:10
orochiyou need to go into monitor mode00:10
RedXIIIWell according to hiren's bootcd it shows that there's a 8mb free unallocated sector and a winxp proff partition00:10
histoRedXIII: you wan tot resize the Xp partition and install ubuntu in the free space.00:10
lsj85madwifi00:11
RedXIIIhisto: exactly.00:11
histoRedXIII: well if you boot to the desktop you can use gparted to resize if you can't do it with the installer00:11
RedXIIIThat's what I'm doing now00:11
RedXIIII'm only familiar with KDE so this should be interesting.00:11
orochilars__ if you're trying to crack wep and aircrack is giving you a hard time just get backtrack 4 and use gerix00:11

geminidominoDoes anyone know of a way to fix/workaround the lcd monitor detection issue? I cant seem to get it to accept my settings even when I manually edit xorg.conf00:16
nDuffWren88, depends on what kind of load you're going to be running. I rarely do more than 2gb in the common case00:16
bsmith093if i backup my entire hd does root have the authority to restore everything, or just the stuff owned by root00:16

histoWren88: I would even go lower like 2gigs I don't even touch swap ever00:16
Wren88what if i use hibernation?00:16
nDuffbsmith093, root can restore everything.00:16
histoWren88: if you use hibernation i think you need to atleast match it.00:16
bsmith093even the normal user stuff00:16
nDuffWren88, ...ahh, in _that_ case you want your total RAM _plus_ 2gb00:17
histobsmith093: root can see everything.00:17
Wren88thanks...!00:17
bsmith093\ok then thanks00:17

RedXIIII have a winxp prof partition (/dev/sda1) and somehow unallocated space of 7.84 MB00:18

histoRedXIII: thats fine just resize /dev/sda100:18
RedXIIIThe system has to be defraged?00:18

histomoosekaka: no the firmware for your wireless card is the issue00:22
RedXIIIVB isn't a great idea for these system specs00:22
bobbofilo1234, did you install from a tarball of the (semi-official) chromium ppa?00:22
bobbos/of/or/00:22

Guest61703Hi. I've just got a quick question. If <uptime> shows 3 users, but only one user besides root exists, how f*cked am I? and who's no. 3?00:24
moosekakaim just confused why i needed to run the install driver CD for the router in xp before linux could get the router to work...short answer is that firmware wasnt loaded? but how can linux know where the firmware for the driver is since i installed in XP00:24
RedXIIII don't know if it'll clear my issues though.00:24
bobbofilo1234, I used to have chromium from a semi-official PPA00:25
lakeoftealol my uptime shows 5 users00:25
lakeofteai'm the only one on . . . how do i know which users are logged in?00:25
histomoosekaka: the issue is most likely that your card works fine in Xp but doesn't in linux. Has nothign to do with the router00:25
Guest61703nice.. why tho?00:25
histolakeoftea: are you logged in the ttys?00:25

moosekakathats whats confusing me....everything i did in xp is on a separate partition00:26
bobbofilo1234, I'ma BRB then I'll PM you , okay?00:26
histomoosekaka: So the card didn't work in xp untill you isntalled what?00:26
filo1234bobbo: ok00:26

taylorjbmoosekaka: buy a linksys wrt54gl and flash it with tomato 1.27 (http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato). you'll be happy then.00:26
bsmith093.dmrc file being ignored00:26
histomoosekaka: thats not a driver cd. Routers don't have drivers00:26
histomoosekaka: its probably a setup disk that you don't really need.00:27
moosekakataylor jb: im happy now everything works :) just confused why i had to do something in XP first before it wor00:27
moosekakaworked in linux00:27
fabienandre9.900:27
histomoosekaka: your cd ffor the router probably blew out whatever settings where causing the issue with the router00:27
forestlurkshow do i turn off the announcements of people logging in and leaving a room?  im using irssi in ubuntu 9.10..00:28
histomoosekaka: but you don't need the cd you can point a browser at the IP of the router to configure it.00:28
histoforestlurks: /help ignore00:28
moosekakahisto: hmmn interesting but still i did the CD thing on the NTFS partition...if nothing is stored on the router how can it fix the issue for linux?00:28
Wren88is there file in ubuntu in case of power failure and on batteries hibernate after x amount of time?00:29
histoforestlurks: also there is #irssi00:29
ubutommoosekaka, may be rubbish what I'm talking, but I think sometimes hardware gets locked by an OS00:29
histomoosekaka: becuase the Router settings got changed when you ran the cd.00:29
ubutommoosekaka, happened to me with some network card or modem some time ago00:29

nDuffjophish, if you tell tcpsvd to connect port 23 to your program, yes00:40
jeffesquivelbobbo, ok, thanks!00:40
rdvonzhisto: Thanks, I'm just baffled as to why this happened a week after installing. It was working fine at 1280x1024 resolution before..00:40
jeffesquivelbobbo, I think the interface is really useful small screens00:40
craigbass1976what's the best way to get firefox 3.5 in Hardy? http://ubuntumanual.org/posts/193/installing-firefox-3-5-in-ubuntu-the-easy-way ?00:40
histordvonz: upgrade to one of the X packages probably00:40
sprungHi, I am using gnome and want to change the function of what F10 does when i am in a terminal window. When I press F10, it selects the window of the menu. This is causing me problems when I use jed to write c programs because F10 is used in jed to open its text-based menu.00:41
Wren88.00:41
jophishwell, I could forward port 23 on the router to anything on the server00:41
jeffesquivelbobbo, and I like it... the thing is, I am used to some of the functionality I have on my laptop00:41
nDuffjophish, ...hrm, let me amend that -- it's actually in "ipsvd", a separate package from runit (though they're from the same author and often used together)00:41
Wren88anyone good with xchat?00:41
histordvonz: you could try rolling back if you figure otu which package.  most like xserver-video-s3 or somethign like that.00:41
jophishand thanks very much nDuff00:41

Typos_Kingcraigbass1976:    why can't you just download it from mozilla.org?    get the .bz2 package, all it needs is unzip and run, no install required00:41
histordvonz: you may have the old package in /var/cache/apt/archives/00:41
tyranossprung, just go to menu and deactivate show menubar00:41

AlxandrI'm having some problems installing ubuntu 9.10 server on my server. It fails to install grub2 (may be caused by my fake-raid setup). It just pops up with a menu displaying the install-order (and I might select what I wan't it to do), but installing grub just returns to that menu.00:44
LajoswardAnyone know how i can make my bottom bar graphical instead of the bar that it is now?00:44
freemanHey guys. What's the defualt MYSQL password in ubuntu 9.10 ? It won't let me log in, but I was never the guy that set it up. It was default with ubuntu 9.1000:44
nwillemshisto: Yes, the version I'm running is 0.5.1 and the LXDE peps have released 0.5.2 as a "bugfix" for shared-mime-info version 0.7, so it would be nice if 0.5.2 of pcmanfm was std in ubuntu repos00:44
Wren88thanks00:44
histoLajosward: you can customize it however youw ant.00:44
coz_freeman,  graphical?00:45

Typos_Kingcraigbass1976:    no, but you can get the libflashplayer.so file and drop it in the /usr/lib/mozilla plugins folder and that'll do00:46
aetaricLajosward: or docky00:46
swat__ola00:46
histoLajosward: there is also avant window navigator and others00:46
Lajoswardeither  better or is that a intel amd question?00:46
aetaricAlxandr: you need to make a partition just for /boot and install grub to that00:47
swat__brasil00:47
AlxandrOn a separate hdd?00:47

=== Fuze is now known as MJ94

Roastedhisto, There's an ATI sticker on it - that's all I know.00:55
histoRoasted: did you try going to System > admin > hardware drivers?00:55
magicianlordhey money00:55
Roastedhisto, I had to use jaunty on it since karmic cant handle the wireless on it. I have the .14 kernel and it works (or .11 or something). If I go to the newest kernel I get nothing.00:55
magicianlordwhat00:55
magicianlordwhat's cookin?00:55
Roastedhisto, let me boot back into the other kernel and check it out. Im 99% positive the only restricted driver available was a modem driver.00:55
magicianlordim using karmic00:55
histoRoasted: how did you install the drivers in .1100:55
magicianlordon dell mini 900:55
magicianlordany questions, let me know00:56
Roastedhisto, what drivers? I didn't install anything on .1100:56
nDuffAlxandr, MTBF -- mean time between failure; you're setting yourself up to lose data if either of two drives fails, meaning you're twice as likely to have a random failure as only one non-RAIDed drive00:56

MoshpetTrying to figure out what to do with a grub error00:56
histoRoasted: using the proper driver will solve most of yoru issues00:56
bobboMoshpet, what Grub error number?00:56
histoRoasted: the other option is to just remove the .14 kernel and lock it at the .11 or whatever works00:56
Roastedhisto, I think I may do that... just remove the newer driver. First le tme see if drivers are available.00:57
histoRoasted: to figure otu what ati card you have try lspci | grep VGA00:57
MoshpetIt didn't give me a number, it just gives a command line with grub infront of it.00:57
AlxandrnDuff: Well. Problem is, I have 2 drives that isn't too big.. But I might make it with what I have though :-)00:57
frybyedanes_ no part time jobs your end.. this needs to go into ##foobar&grill though00:57
dailystruggledoes anyone know yum00:57
magicianlordyes, i do00:57
histoRoasted: pay special attention to the if your card is newer or older in the fglrx section of the wiki00:57

magicianlordwhat is your question00:57
Wren88Out of the many linux distros I've used Ubuntu is the friendliest00:58
pvl1has anyone gotten android source to compile on 9.1000:58
aetaricAlxandr: if you use just one disc, don't bother00:58
magicianlordubuntu is the friendliest00:58
magicianlordhowever, 9.10 is hte strongest release00:58
Roastedhisto, the only hardware drivers are alternate atheros madwifi driver and software modem. :(00:58
magicianlordi think we need to provide feedback to the developers on 10.0400:58
un214yum: a word we say when food tastes good00:58
magicianlordthey made an awful choice of usplash and window themes00:59
Wren88Centos is not too user friendly even for a sysadmin00:59
aetaricRoasted: install madwifi?00:59
Alxandraetaric: One disk isnt' big enough to all that I need on the server. But it shouldn't be too big a problem to maintain the OS on one disk.00:59
pvl1magicianlord, idk i was really please with like 9.04. i got ticked off at a few chanegs in 9.1000:59
nDuffAlxandr, if your problem is capacity, not speed, you might consider using LVM; an unstriped LV spanning two PVs will give you the capacity you're looking for, but with a better chance of data being recoverable in the case of a failure than if everything had been striped.00:59
Roastedaetaric, I'm dealing with a graphics issue - not the wifi issue. That's a whole other story in itself.00:59
magicianlordpvl1: i understand. however, 9.10 is faster and more stable00:59
magicianlordext4 is better implemented00:59
pvl1magicianlord, in that id probably agree00:59
Roastedmagic_ninja420, than what? 9.04?00:59
Roastederrrr not magic_ninja42000:59

pvl1magicianlord, crunchbang?01:00
magicianlordand now use 9.10 gnome on this pc, along with archbang (arch with openbox) on another01:00
histomagicianlord: 10.04 is really fast01:00

histopvl1: crunchbang is a custom ubuntu distro running openbox01:00
pvl1oh01:00
magicianlordcrunchbang is jaunty with openbox01:00
pvl1kewl01:00
nDuffAlxandr, ...also, as long as you use LVM, you can install on just one drive now, and expand the VG and LV to include another drive later when you need more space01:00
histopvl1: #!01:00
Roastedhisto, its a radeon xpress 200m01:00
dailystrugglemagicianlord: what did I get cesured because I said anyone?01:00

AlxandrnDuff: That means if I buy new drive and pop it in, I can expand to that too later?01:01
nDuffAlxandr, yup01:01

histo!envy > Roasted01:02
ubottuRoasted, please see my private message01:02
nDuffAlxandr, I'm not very familiar with the current installer, but I'd presume that would be asking if you wanted to leave unallocated space in the volume group01:03

histoRoasted: well its updated01:03
histoRoasted: envy was never supported but envy-ng is i guess. I haven't played with it in ages.01:03
magicianlorddailystruggle: there should be a wiki on yum use, or you can always look up the manual in terminal by typing "man yum"01:03

magicianlordAirris: did you install nvidia drivers from jockey or pac manager?01:16
magicianlordjockey is almost useless01:16
Typos_KingMiraculix:   the part where it goes too fast it won't give you a choice is cuz between the poweron and the boot screen, I think grub2 counts that for the timer, so by the time you get there, the10secs which is the default won't give enough time, I changed it to 3001:16
patrick__does anyone know how to configure compiz so i can command tab to cycle thru open applications? (not windows) as in osx?01:16

Wren88so i can use virtualbox05:32
domi007the ts driver is compiled into the kernel btw05:33
roach@ carlFX well it is a php site that access outside proxies to login to a site and make accounts for me... when i try to run it on my server I get an error that it cant connect and it times out.. yet on HG it works. .. i assume it uses mysql because its a PHP site05:33

Bob_DoleI desire one thing right now, a way to set volumes of things in ALSA in such a way that PulseAudio can not change them no matter how hard it tries, while still allowing it to change master volume.05:38
CarlFKroach: it should work...   I am guessing you need to get help with the php stuff - log files or something05:38
PHP_ArunSwimmingRat: are you using an external storage device to run your ubuntu 9.10 Karamic Koala?05:38

roachwell are there any ports i need to forward or something besides the standard..... i know the script works05:39
roachi have it hosted on a vps05:39
roachand it works there but not on my server05:39
Bob_DoleBecause PCM being too high makes my sound sound like crap, and PulseAudio forces PCM to be too high, changing it in alsamixer is worthless because if the GUI or keyboard shortcuts change the volume, PCM is reset to being too high again05:39
=== WindPower_ is now known as WindPower
SwimmingRatPHP_Arun, no I am not using any external storage device05:39
PHP_Arunactually, since most of the ubuntus Karmic are available in 64 bit version, its difficult for your 32 bit AMD to hold the instruction set long enough for executing05:40
PHP_Aruni see05:40
CarlFKroach: "doesn't work" isn't much to go on.  the description you gave sounds like it should work without any public exposure05:40
SwimmingRatPHP_Arun, I do not have a 64 bit machine, do I?05:40
PHP_Arunso i think, you must make sure that you are running a 32 bit i386 version OS on the system05:40
PHP_Arunno u dont05:40
PHP_Arunbut ur OS is 64 bit05:40

PHP_Arunif so, i am 101 % sure about the OS being a 64 bit one.05:41

ZykoticK9SwimmingRat, i had a quick look at your pastbin - but my google-fu didn't find anything for the error sorry05:45
roach@ carlfx yeah its a pain05:45
MidComMobilei've hit just a tiny brick wall using an lg e500 laptop. the battery icons in gnome, xfce, and cairo-dock all fail to recognise the presence of a battery, gnome reports 0% while cairo-dock and xfce report ac power even when the battery is not being charged.05:46
SwimmingRatZykoticK9, i appreciate that.  I'm still getting freezes and my guess is that it has to do with flash, though it works well (except for John Stewart and chatroulette) though igoogle fails (differently) on both browsers05:46
CarlFKroach: where did you get the php stuff?05:46
Wren88so what else to try?05:46
roachi paid for the script05:46
roachthat is part of the error log05:46
roachlike i said if i want to pay for hosting it works fine05:46
ZykoticK9SwimmingRat, sorry man - i really don't have anything to suggest for you.  Best of luck though.05:47
SwimmingRatZykoticK9, I never heard of dmesg before (where would I?) or uname and didnt see them in the basic linux I looked at.05:47

obiwan_guys, i know directories are special files with links to the inodes of other files. However i don't know how to read this info. I tried nano dir and it errors with :file is a dir. Omg i hecking know it's a dir, but can't it simply open the binary inside it, just like it does with some mp3 files or whatever? i tried too with an hex editor and it can't either open it. How could i read their info? it's just on a learning purpose06:06

abhi_navrww: administrator@abhi-laptop:~$ sudo tasksel install lamp-server07:32
abhi_navdanny i think iso is itself an image.07:32
rwwabhi_nav: alright. "sudo killall tasksel" should do it.07:32

hassanakevazirrww, Thanks a lot man, I was getting "Cannot resolve host" when executing a root, that fixed it07:33
abhi_navrww: tasksel: no process found07:33

abhi_navrww: yes07:45
rwwabhi_nav: alright. The likely problem is that gvfs is messed up for some reason, and thus software-center can't figure out whether another program locked the package database. The easiest way to fix this would be to restart, to be honest; it's a rather obscure condition...07:46
rwwlogging out and back in again might also fix it, I forget whether that cycles gvfs or not.07:47

danxthansen: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.2&product=2.4.2.3.32&lang=English (for 64-bits OS); although you should ask in #ubuntu+1 channel, 10.04 isn't stable yet.09:36
v3rr3zhow come my desktop shortcuts dont have icons.. just blank white pages?09:37
TG_tiggerXdept - you have a live CD you are working with?09:37
danxthansen: I wouldn't trust 'jockey-gtk' in 10.04, it's not stable yet; download the driver from ati site (the one I linked you to); it's not hard to install09:37
plustax_Im having an issue. I plug in my thumb drive to usb, and 9.10 isnt recognizing it at all.09:37
plustax_Any ideas?09:37

noaXess_netubuany idea? the screen is flickering even on ubuntu start, before X is started?09:38

XdeptHow is that done ?09:44
q_plustax, thx09:45
TG_tiggerXdept - goto the Ubuntu website and look into the info they have there that would involve partitioning and installing Ubuntu in its own partition.09:46
XdeptI'm sure i had a good look through that09:46
XdeptWait09:47
XdeptIt is on it's own partition09:47

motaka2hello is it possible  to have IE on ubuntu on a system  which windows is not installed yet?10:17
TG_tiggermotaka2 - look up WINE10:18
svscvscmotaka2, I think there is an IE browser package someone has made, that packages it all up for you (and uses wine)10:18
motaka2svscvsc: that means i have to install windows along side with ubuntu and through wine i should run IE ?10:19
Someguy771I'm not getting any audio playing back in kaffeine can somebody help?10:19
GreenTmotaka2, wine != windows, wine emulates the windows api and will allow you to run IE in that emulated environment, but to you it will look like any other application under ubuntu---mostly.10:20
DaveG|Hi, could anyone assist me with setting up the MySQL JDBC Driver on Ubuntu 9.10? I've installed the libmysql-java package and when try to use the com.mysql.jdbc.Driver class, it's never found.10:20

Utente_566hello10:21
GreenTmotaka2, is there any particular reason why you would want to run IE under ubuntu?10:21
motaka2GreenT: i dont like to install windows reall, there is no other browser on earth which simulates IE ?10:21
overmindmotaka2: errrr.... firefox? opera?...10:22

zespriecho newline >> /filename10:22
zesprihow do I add this same line at the begging of the file (in shell script)10:22
SlartDigitalOSH: if you don't get an answer you can repeat the question.. but wait at least 10 minutes before doing so.. use the time to improve the question, provide a good description of your problem, search the ubuntu forums etc10:22
overmindmotaka2: Yes, IE works with wine10:22
royrussellmotaka2 use a vm10:22
GreenTmotaka2, for that purpose revert to virtualization (google vmware or virtualbox) and install whatever OS and browser you want10:23
SlartDigitalOSH: just writing "anyone?" or "Can someone answer my question?" will just make people annoyed... noone likes to scroll around trying to find the actual question10:23
GreenTmotaka2, to "simulate" IE would not help you at all as a designer, you will need to test your pages in the real browser to know how they perform10:24
SmartSsamotaka2: use a VM with proper windows or your "testing" will be flawed. WINE+IE will not give you the same results as Windows+IE.10:24

=== LrdMtrod is now known as LordMetroid
nicodariousmiha, actually, your addressbook and such should be under the .evolution folder, so should be safe.  like i said, just either rename the .gconf/evolution folder to something like 'evolution-bak' so if it loses your prescious data, all you have to do is delete the new /evolution foler in .gconf/ folder and rename the -bak folder to the original and you'll be safe.11:56

dogmatic69how can i test without restarting? kill gdm12:46
Dr_Willisthe nvidia-settings tool has an issue where it tries to update the xorg.conf file.. IF the xorg.conf file dosent exist. In the past ive ran nvidia-settings as root, and confiured things, then saved teh xorg.conf to the users home. Then copied it to /etc/X11, then restarted X12:46
frxstremwhen I've installed Xubuntu with "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" and then removing it the same way, will all the programs that was installed with it be uninstalled too?12:46
Dr_Willisdogmatic69:  use 'sudo service gdm restart' is one way12:46
fastasipior, Gnome shows the right location, however.12:46
sipiorfasta: it should have been adjusted automatically. could you pastebin the output of "zdump -c 2011 -v /etc/localtime | grep 2010"?12:47

Dr_Willisinstalling is easy.. removeingis much harder :)12:51

frxstremerUSUL: and now I want to remove it again - with all it's applications12:51
sipiorfasta: it's 12.51?12:51
dogmatic69Dr_Willis: thanks that worked12:51
erUSULfrxstrem: ... really dunno; there is a factoid to purge kde but for xubuntu i dunno12:51

Vampire0Hi, I have a very strange problem12:53
fastasipior, \ma 29 mrt 2010 12:57:49 CEST  -0.203823 seconden12:53
tranquitoerUSUL: When I run umount on that disk it says that it is busy. If I unmount by rightclicking the desktop icon, it appears to work but fsck reads the same response!12:54
fastasipior, I booted Windows a few days ago. That might cause it? But still I don't see how it cannot compensate for that, especially with an internet connection.12:54
sipiorfasta: interesting. you keep your hardware clock in local time, not UTC?12:54
fastasipior, I have no idea what Windows Vista does.12:54
Vampire0I've connected to my home box where I started x11vnc with Vinagre. From time to time it happens like just now that some key, in this case "r" is hanging. Which means it continuously repeats. I didn't found a way to stop this yet besides rebooting the whole machine. Restarting x11vnc didn't help :-(12:54
erUSULtranquito: do this sudo fuser /dev/sdxx12:54
fastasipior, and I didn't modify anything in the BIOS or whatever.12:54
fastasipior, so, you can assume all the default.12:55
fastadefaults*12:55
drizzt_why mount.cifs may give permission error message?12:55
dogmatic69Dr_Willis: i got this ubuntu9.04 a while ago, is there anything new? i was something about 10 coming out in a few weeks12:55
=== carlos is now known as Guest15123
dogmatic69are there any updates i should be doing?12:55
dogmatic69or wait for 10 maybe12:55
erUSULdrizzt_: you did not used it with sudo ?12:56
Vampire0It even repeats while x11vnc is not running I think12:56
drizzt_obviously i did12:56
erUSUL!details | drizzt_12:56
ubottudrizzt_: 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 ..."12:56
fastasipior, I think the hardware clock is UTC.12:56
fastasipior, otherwise it would have shown one hour later.12:56
erUSULdrizzt_: it was only obvious to you; i can not read minds ... yet ;)12:57
=== carlos_ is now known as cdg
sipiorfasta: no, remember that CEST is now *2* hours ahead of UTC, so 11.57 is the correct UTC time12:57
ranjanhi all...the gwibber is not working for me...its not showing any tweets12:57
Vampire0anyone any idea?12:57
drizzt_What can be wrong here: sudo mount -v -t cifs -o ro,cred=/home/xxx/.smbcred,ip=192.168.0.1,sec=ntlmv2,noperm //host/share /home/xxx/mountpoint ?12:57
tranquitoerUSUL: Still claims to be mounted. It must just hate me! Will run in -v and post response.12:57
ranjanbut the tweets posted are shown on the web12:57
fastasipior, ah, ok.12:58
fastasipior, so, conclusion? You don't know?12:58
sipiorfasta: i would try setting the hardware clock as follows: sudo hwclock --utc --date="11:58:00"12:58
sipiorfasta: i need a minute to type, if that's all right.12:58
fastasipior, but when I start Windows that will mess up everything again.12:58
fastasipior, sure.12:59
tranquitoerUSUL: No verbose mode for that command!12:59
drizzt_the funny thing is that share is accessible12:59
fastasipior, this is a problem that existed in 2001.12:59
sipiorfasta: i haven't experienced similar problems with my dual boot system at home.12:59
fastasipior, that is because you use ntp at home.12:59
sipiorfasta: i do not.12:59
fastasipior, ok, then I don't understand why there is a difference.12:59
sipiorfasta: ntp is orthogonal to the time zone of the system.12:59
erUSULtranquito: sudo fuser -km /mount/point/usbdisk13:00
nfoxTchey I have a folder with all my work in it that magicly changed it's permissions to 'nobody' how do I change it back?13:00
makdotgnuHi can any tell me how I can support for a dynamic subdomain in my development machine like xyz.localhost where xyz can be anything13:00
sipiorfasta: here's the thing: the system can make two choices about to interpret the time found in the local clock. it can assume that the clock is kept in utc, in which case it then applies a time zone correction. this is preferred.13:00
sipiorfasta: or, it can assume that the clock is *already* in the correct time zone, and displays it unmodified.13:01
coolboxcan anyone tell me how to change locale to eg. en.usa.iso.... on ubuntu?13:01
fastasipior, and if there is an internet connection it could also just connect to some server via http every boot.13:01
erUSULcoolbox: System>Preferences>Language support ?13:01
ranjanany help with gwibber??13:02
sipiorfasta: ntp is not used for adjusting time zones. otherwise, you could never trust an ntp server outside of your own time zone. this would be a disaster...13:02
ceeneyyou can do the choices by the menus of booting13:02
fastasipior, you cannot trust an Ubuntu system to begin with.13:02
coolboxCan it be changed there?13:02
sipiorfasta: so, why are you here?13:02
drizzt_What can be wrong here: sudo mount -v -t cifs -o ro,cred=/home/xxx/.smbcred,ip=192.168.0.1,sec=ntlmv2,noperm //host/share /home/xxx/mountpoint ?13:03
fastasipior, because it has a combination of openness and practicality.13:03

Dr_Willisdrizzt_:  mount /mnt /dev/XXX -t XXX -o XXXXXX13:03
KeeageAnyone know of a good guide for making a really good NAS that can accept different type drives13:04
fastasipior, anyway, sudo hwclock --utc --date="12:04:00" && date shows the time an hour before the right time.13:04
Dr_Willisdrizzt_:  youmay want to check online for some examples of doing that. Ive rarely done samba shares that way13:04
fastasipior, if that is in fact correct, then Gnome doesn't update its idea of time.13:04
sipiorfasta: you'll need a "--set" option in there as well, now that i think of it.13:05

SmartSsafasta: is your timezone set wrong?13:08
sipiorfasta: you may need to include the date as well. consult the hwclock man page.13:08
fastaSmartSsa, in the Gnome applet the right timezone is selected.13:09
sipiorfasta: so --date="29/03/10 13:09:00" or thereabouts.13:09
