[00:40] maco: yes that is what I want. how do I do it [00:41] NFischer, ok than its right click on desktop change background themes colors / check that out [00:41] preston_: i dont know if compiz in ubuntu can do it. i just know that kubuntu with kde 4.4 can do it [00:41] maco: I read online that with "screen 4" is built into karmic kola and should work with a ctrl-A command but it doesn't [00:42] watatem, try to google for "BCDEdit" [00:42] hiexpo, no that aint it either! [00:42] preston_: screen is a terminal program [00:42] hiexpo, tried that before [00:42] hmmmmmmmmm [00:42] preston_: and yes, it uses ctrl+a to be controlled... but this wouldnt do anything to your windows. itd just be if you want to run two commands in one terminal side by side [00:42] i think its that solid color thing ya just gotta reboot to take affect [00:43] isn't there osme new program to compete with screen now? [00:43] -.- [00:43] maco: oh do you have any other ideas of how i could get the split screen to work [00:43] watatem, I'm pretty sure that it will fix your problem... [00:43] preston_: ok, i know compiz *can* do tiling i just dont know if it has the "drag to the side" thing. if you install compizconfig-settings-manager from the software center, you can configure it [00:43] hiexpo, aight, im rebootin [00:43] preston_, what are ya tring to achive ? [00:44] XuMuk: thanks [00:44] ok [00:44] preston_: personally, i use a window manager that is *always* in split screen mode ;-) but its very keyboard-driven [00:44] hiexpo: tiling with a mouse [00:44] watatem, you're welcome) [00:44] preston_: Did you see the link I posted, it is for Gnome. [00:44] hiexpo: i want to be able to do a split screen feature similar to that on w7 [00:44] maco, i know tilting with a mouse does work on here [00:44] hiexpo, yap, it is it not! [00:45] Vigo: ya i saw it but it wasn't relevant [00:45] NFischer, hugh? [00:45] hiexpo: ok. i didnt know how compiz's "plz tile this window" thing worked. just how kwin's does. [00:45] hiexpo, didnt work [00:45] preston_: Ok, have you tried Metacity or such stuff? [00:45] hmmm NFischer [00:45] acicula, i believe you are right, how do i determine which device (e.g. /dev/sda1) to use for my drive? [00:46] Vigo: no but I will look it up, what exactly is its function [00:46] join #couchdbkit [00:46] Vigo, no its done with compiz ya need both simple ccsm and compiz [00:46] subone: ubuntu maps the drive to a device in alfabetical order [00:47] Vigo: Ya I have it installed how to I use it [00:47] acicula, how do i check what /media/My Drive links to though? [00:47] when using the nautilist to browse ftp how do i chnage perms? [00:47] its an external hard drive [00:48] preston_, you have rotate cube enabled [00:48] subone, assuming it's currently mounted - type "mount" in a terminal, and you should see the mount mappings [00:48] PATX, right click > properties > permissions [00:48] preston_: I was just looking up the Man pages on that, [00:48] hiexpo: no i disabled it because compiz was messing up some of my settings [00:48] preston.if ur talking about aero-snap this guy on youtube shows how to in compiz http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOAsNyRE7k4 [00:48] subone: type mount in a console and it'll show [00:49] ok it is part of what you wanna do [00:49] XuMuK, its says not available [00:49] Am4no: thanks I will check it out [00:50] preston_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=658091 kinda older, let me see if I can find a newer one... [00:51] PATX, Are you root or owner of files you're trying to change permissions? and why don't you try filezilla? it's free and has many [00:51] Question about sshd: I can SSH from my home laptop into my home desktop, but I can't SSH from outside my home into my home desktop. My router is confirmed to be forwarding the port correctly. Does Ubuntu reject incoming SSH attempts through a router? [00:51] ok so i added this to my fstab "/dev/sdb1 /media/FreeAgent\ Drive vfat rw,umask=000 0 0" will that automount with the right permissions now? [00:51] XuMuK, i need to use naultilist [00:51] and how would i become root? [00:51] hey :) Anyone else got the problem with Ubuntu 10.4 beta 1 (and latest daily, too) that ATI 5750 + HDMI display gets blank during booting the live cd and never comes back? (is there a workarorund) It seems that the desktop is loaded fine since i can ctrl-alt-del reboot. [00:52] + when i use gftp i can chnage them [00:52] kwtm: check your sshd config, it might reject connections from outside the local network [00:52] PATX, good luck then) I never used NAU for ftp access... [00:52] kk thanks [00:52] NFischer, Working on that still for ya [00:52] XuMuK, PATX: I'm late to this thread but heard FileZilla mentioned. Does it do SSH yet or is it still just for FTP? I (and many) consider FTP to be insecure, but opinions may vary. [00:52] daniel_, reask your question in the Lucid channel, #ubuntu+1 [00:52] ZykoticK9, thanks will do [00:53] filezilla does ssh/ftp [00:53] kwtm: i don't remember where that setting was, but i remember having seen the problem [00:53] hiexpo, thx! [00:53] dvrcoder: Thx, will try. I don't see any config files in ~/.ssh, though. Is there a .sshrc somewhere? [00:53] kwtm: they are in /etc/ssh [00:53] kwtm, to do what? [00:54] kwtm: /etc/ssh/sshd_config is the most likely file [00:54] question: what is a lightweight DNS server solution for ubuntu? i need to add 2-3 local network names in there [00:55] dvrcoder, tinydns / dnscache [00:55] Barnabas: dvrcoder asked me to check SSH config file to see if I'm rejecting outside connections. I can't SSH into my home desktop through the router (confirmed to be working correctly) but can SSH from within my home network. [00:55] Barnabas: thx [00:55] preston_: I found an Aero Snap, is not official Ubuntu site, but it may be what you are asking about,,,still reading... === nathan is now known as Guest85083 [00:55] kwtm, ssh config file is found in /etc/ssh/ either in ssh_config or sshd_config if you have openssh-server installed that is assuming that is what your loking for [00:55] kwtm: did you setup portforwarding? [00:56] okay my computer was just frozen (slow to the point of unusable) for like half an hour, i had to manually reset. Oh, and the keyboard died. Is there any way to see what happened? Like what process(es) were using up all the cpu? [00:56] kwtm, perhaps your router will not route back onto ressources behind its own network [00:56] bolex, top [00:56] XuMuK: Does top support past tense? [00:56] hmm, I get the following errors in dmesg when i try to mount my drive: [283212.106190] FAT: bogus number of reserved sectors \n [283212.106200] VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev sdb1. any help? [00:56] XuMuK Top was actually my first impulse but I couldn't even alt-f2 (broken keyboard, mouse nearly non-responding) [00:57] bolex, you can try the logs found in /var/log other than that don't know how to help you [00:57] Broken as in the lights were off and it wasn't doing anything [00:57] Vigo: thanks [00:57] preston_: This one does the split windows thing, do you want the link? [00:57] hi, i have a problem, wher is a configurate file for quake live on xubuntu ? [00:57] Vigo: I found a link for it, thanks anyways [00:57] Pirate_Hunter: There's uh, 101 items in there. Hint? [00:57] subone, do you expect it to be a fat drive [00:57] preston_ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1387244 and it led to here: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2009/11/aero-snap-ubuntu-linux.html [00:58] Pirate_Hunter: Is there any log containing like, CPU usage over time or something [00:58] Barnabas, it is a fat drive, or at least it was before i unmounted it to mount it again [00:58] Pirate_Hunter: Or like "THIS process was being a jerk for the last 35 minutes" [00:58] Does anyone know the key combo to restart X? Its not the depreciated? ctrl+alt+bksp, but something similar to ctrl+printscr+k [00:58] subone, it probably still is then [00:58] bolex, try what sad Pirate, take a look in logs... [00:58] powertool08, alt+printscr+k [00:58] XuMuK All 101 of them? [00:58] Barnabas, acicula: I believe I have correctly set up port forwarding, the same way I set it up before when it was working. http://www.canyouseeme.org/ is able to tell when I have manually connected or disconnected by computer to/from the home network. So I don't think it's the router. [00:59] bolex, you may want to try running the apps you had running and keep tag of them through top, tail and the essential logs in my opinion are syslog, message, dmesg, kernel and debug [00:59] ZykoticK9: thanks :) [00:59] Barnabas, just didnt know if the /dev/... changes or something. So, assuming it still is the same FAT drive, what now [00:59] subone, you did not have a crash on that system [00:59] leaving the file system in an fsck like state [01:00] bolex, do you know any other way?) I don't right now, sorry [01:00] Barnabas, no there was no crash, i just unmounted the drive because im adding it to fstab so it mounts with the permissions i need for apache [01:00] XuMuK, sad pirate... ? you know most irc have auto complete of nicks [01:00] XuMuX, Pirate_Hunter hmm... i suspected compiz had something to do with it so i turned it off... stuff is actually at least 2x as fast as normal now, lol [01:00] !tab [01:01] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [01:01] XuMuX, Pirate_Hunter I guess compiz wasn't invented for people with 40 windows open :D [01:01] though most of them are obscured [01:01] kwtm, ok - sometimes it is possible to access a pubic port 22 from the net but not from an ip that is routed out from the network where the host ip reseides [01:01] resides [01:02] bolex, hmmm.. maybe and compiz never used it metacity composite is more than enough for me [01:02] Pirate_Hunter, thanks, I knew... sorry if I hurt your feelings) [01:02] subone, try to run a file /dev/filesys [01:02] hi all! i need to change colors! how do i change those : http://media.ubuntuusers.de/forum/attachments/2427725/thistothat1.png !? [01:02] XuMuK, no you haven't just found it weird, no worries [01:02] to what you expect to be the system [01:02] Barnabas: I forwarded 55522 to port 22. [01:03] Barnabas, i dnot understand [01:03] the file command will look at the file header to see what it is [01:03] dvrcoder: Not sure what I'm looking for in sshd_config. May I pastebin mine for you to see? Is there a line that says "Allow only 192.168.*.*"? [01:03] What keys do you hold down to type RESISUB, and did I spell that correctly? [01:03] Barnabas, when it was mounted a moment ago it was on /dev/sdb1 [01:03] <``y7> i modified /etc/network/interfaces and when i restarted my computer, my ip changed. ideas? [01:03] oh `file` [01:03] subone, yes that is the disk [01:03] kwtm: i remotely remember something like that. wait a second [01:03] So I guess a log of processes and their CPU usage over time would be too CPU consuming itself, right? [01:03] not the file system [01:03] Can ubuntu tell me what my screen's (hardware) resolution/size is? [01:03] NFischer, aint those change based on the theme your using, I am just about certain of that, you may want to change your theme and check it out [01:04] /dev/sdb1: block special [01:04] Or at least hard to do in text form [01:04] mikelifeguard: system->preferences->display [01:04] thanks, acicula [01:04] bolex, yes and please use the person name you're directing your question unless you're asking in general [01:04] Pirate_Hunter: I am [01:05] Barnabas, /dev/sdb1: block special [01:05] sorry to all of you but I am on a very slow line tonight [01:05] kwtm: can you pastebin it? (it could of course also be the case that your local firewall blocks the request, btw.) [01:05] NFischer, its tooltips background [01:05] Pirate_Hunter, u right, but is there no way to customize that? [01:06] bolex, but logs dont take much cpu just keep track of your ram usage and the apps that consume a lot of ram also you may want to look into apparmor and apparmor-profiles [01:06] bolex, top has a cumulative mode to see what processes uses a lot of cpu time [01:06] hiexpo, where do i find this [01:06] in the themes colors sometimes you cant change that one [01:07] geez [01:07] NFischer, I would say their is but its something I will definitely not go into, go to the forums and search around also google, I know you have to mess with the system files for that... errrh... more work than needed [01:07] what tme is that you are using [01:07] wtf is block special [01:07] Pirate_Hunter, thx [01:07] dvrcoder: http://paste.ubuntu.com/409266/ [01:07] !language | subone [01:07] subone: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [01:07] subone, for more info try http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-get-information-about-your-file-system-in-ubuntu.html [01:07] hiexpo, its human-clearlooks on both [01:08] subone: That just means it's a block device (read: disk) [01:08] ok thought so by the color [01:08] dvrcoder: I also did "sudo iptables -L" and everything was empty. I checked the router through CanYouSeeMe.org and the ports are open. [01:08] ok sorry didnt know i couldnt say 'wt...' [01:08] NFischer: And I suggest a backup, always backup [01:09] Vigo, unless you want to write a blues [01:09] I'm building a new desktop computer for myself and wondering if I should install Ubuntu 9.10 or 10.04 Beta 1. It's not a "production" machine but I will be using it for email, photos, music,etc. I already have one machine running Ubuntu 9.10 for about 6 months and very happy with the stability. Any thoughts? [01:09] Barnabas, dumpe2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb1 [01:09] Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock. [01:09] Vigo, are you from Vigo, Spain?) [01:10] stay with 9.10 [01:10] frodo: i'd go with lucid === christian is now known as Guest76652 [01:10] subone, youre sure the disk is physically ok ? [01:10] XuMuK: No I am not in Spain where it rains on the planes. [01:10] kwtm: can you ssh from that computer to itself? [01:10] How can I find the kernel module for my webcam, it's a Logitech, Inc. QuickCam for DELL Notebooks [01:11] I have a hopelessly locked system here, looked up REISUB, and tried it - no luck. Suggestions? [01:11] Barnabas, i _just_unmounted it, unless that damaged it, then i see no reason it wouldnt be ok, i was just working on it [01:11] frodo, up to you really you could check out 10.4 and help provide bugs specially software/hardware bugs [01:12] Will it be easier/more stable to upgrade to 10.04 from 10.04 Beta 1 or 9.10? Or not really much difference? [01:12] dvrcoder: Yes, and I can also SSH from another computer on the same home network to itself. [01:12] * greezmunkey is about to cut power... [01:12] greezmunkey, please explain, what happened, how it happened and what you've attempted [01:12] subone, its just that the hints you give does not give much information for error detection [01:12] Vigo, and I am) [01:12] dvrcoder: Hey, could YOU try SSH'ing to my computer? I think it might be my linux provider on the remote computer that might be blocking it. [01:12] Hello There [01:12] Barnabas, i just unplugged it and replugged it after removing the fstab line i added and it mounts fine === system is now known as Guest49590 [01:12] Vigo, but not in Vigo... [01:13] Really i am new here [01:13] subone, usb issue then [01:13] classic [01:13] Pirate_Hunter: my wireless connection dropped, wasn't using the system, it just decided to quit. This is the first time. U9.10, latest kernel. [01:13] what do you mean? [01:13] dvrcoder: I'll tell you my IP address, but how do I send you a private msg? [01:13] usb is not the first choice for a stable data channel [01:13] frodo, from beta to final release howver be aware at the moment it is beta1 in my opinion not much different from alpha you may or may not have problems if you dont mind losing data which could happen [01:13] kwtm: /msg dvrcoder blabla [01:13] Pirate_Hunter: I tried Alt+PrintScr REISUB, but nothing happened. [01:13] what's the difference between these two: cp -r /* or cp -r /.* [01:13] all i want to do is place my DocumentRoot on the drive, idk why this is such a pain [01:14] Guest49590: Welcome to Ubuntu! [01:14] Pirate_Hunter: upper case reisub, by the way. [01:14] Private_Hunter: Thanks. I'm gonna try 10.04 Beta 1 [01:15] greezmunkey, might sound silly have you tried restarting, checking router wireless key, checking your router actually connects to the internet and I have no clue what reisub is [01:15] Barnabas, this is what mount has to say about it "/dev/sdb1 on /media/FreeAgent Drive_ type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,default_permissions,blksize=4096)" [01:15] greezmunkey: Not following the thead, but is "REISUB" upper case? [01:15] frodo, good luck [01:15] subone, so does it work or not now ? [01:15] kwtm: I was about to ask, all of the posts I've looked at show it typed in uppercase. [01:15] greezmunkey: Per my understanding, it should be: hold down Alt-PrtSc, then tap R, E, I, S, U,B allowing a few seconds between each letter. Nothing about Shift or CapsLock key [01:15] mcurran, copying all files within the current directory and copying all hidden files within the current directory [01:16] Pirate_Hunter: thanks. [01:16] kwtm: I'll try it that way... [01:16] Barnabas, no. I mean it works, but not for what im trying to do. I want to locate my apache doc root there, but i cant unless it is mounted a specific way i guess, because of lack of permissions on a fat system [01:16] Guest459590: Have you been to the Forums and other documentation sites? [01:16] subone: Why not just add the apache user to the 'plugdev' group, set DocumentRoot to /media/FreeAgent Drive, and be done with it? [01:16] dvrcoder: So it works! So it was a different problem all along. Thanks! This is a great boon in my debugging. [01:17] here's my flying bunny, see the ears flop down to fly http://www.terrafugia.com/ [01:17] greezmunkey: It has to do all the commands (e.g. Alt-PrtSc-R means terminate all processes, and it takes a few seconds to do so). [01:17] is there a possibility to export themes to transfer them to another box? [01:17] oops wrong channel, apologies [01:17] subone, if the system is mounted ok then see to it that the apache user has the correct rights to write to the disk [01:17] kwtm: anyway you could also check the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files [01:17] i have problem with MonoDevelop Error "Build failed. ApplicationName='vbnc'" ???? [01:17] alpicola, i will look into that [01:17] greezmunkey: Sorry, Alt-PrtSc-E means terminate all processes, not Alt-PrtSc-R. R means Raw input. [01:17] tripelb, #ubuntu-offtopic [01:18] subone, create a subfolder or such where the user from the apache serv has write access [01:18] Barnabas, thats the thing, i cant successfully `chmod 755` [01:18] subone, not even by root? [01:18] NFischer, no but you can get them easily atsoftpedia [01:18] NFischer, im certain there is but I havent messed with themes in a while and you can find this very quickly online [01:18] Barnabas, no, cmoding does nothing [01:18] ty Cy [01:18] subone, that cant be correct [01:19] kwtm: yeah, I've read up on it in the past, but haven't had to try it until now! I went through all of the keys, watching the hdd led. No activity. Guess it's time to kill it but good. [01:19] subone: Define 'does nothing'. Do you mean 'doesn't change perms' or 'doesn't accomplish what you need it to accomplish'? [01:19] afk be back in 10 [01:19] alpicola, doesnt change perms [01:19] anyone here..NEWBIE! [01:20] hiexpo, Pirate_Hunter the prob is, that human-clearlooks i found on softpedia is not the same as in 9.04 [01:20] !welcome [01:20] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [01:20] `sudo chmod 755 /media/FreeAgent\ Drive` doesnt do what it should [01:20] !ask | Guest61640 [01:20] Guest61640: 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. :-) [01:20] Hello! [01:20] frodo: hi [01:20] !themes | NFischer [01:20] NFischer: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy [01:20] hiexpo, Pirate_Hunter on the sreenshot both boxes are using human-clearlooks [01:20] subone, if that's a FAT or NTFS drive, you can't apply unix permissions to it [01:20] what clearlooksyou want? [01:20] kwtm: So you know the caps lock, and scroll lock leds on the keyboard blink on and off at about 1 second intervals. [01:20] hey i am new to linux... i just downloaded or installed a package through the manager... how do i run it? [01:21] Guest45950: Still here? [01:21] ZykoticK9, thats what i just said [01:21] greezmunkey: Didn't know that! Just passing on what I read; but it's useful to know. Interesting. [01:21] Guest61640, what package? [01:21] Pirate_Hunter, k, im probably gonna fnd it thx [01:21] well this is a general question [01:21] kwtm: just pressed the reset key... [01:21] Guest61640: Lots of choices... [01:21] subone, i don't use fat/ntfs - but you need to alter your permission in fstab (or you still trying to use 000?) [01:21] NFischer, that is based on themes, you can either change the options in the theme manually or mess around with system files which I wouldn't consider [01:21] go into synaptic and search do clearlooks and see what version it is [01:21] what is recommended partitions for a new clean linux install? currently have 238gigs of unallocated space. and what parts should be ext2, 3 or 4? [01:21] Guest61640 : is that gui package or command line based [01:22] whats a good hacker server and how do i get on it [01:22] soreau, hi glad you are still here. [01:22] Guest61640: If it's in the menus, click on it to run it. If a command line app, type the program's name into the command line in a Terminal. [01:22] so i downloaded the package... but now how the hell do i run it? [01:22] Guest61640, depends if it's graphic, internet or other type of application... [01:22] kismet [01:22] hey [01:22] kwtm: fsck passed ok, at login screen.

[01:34] is there a way from terminator that i can dump the entire terminal ( or as much as i have scrolled) to a file? [01:34] subone, not sure if im on the right track but chown [owner]:[group] I would guess your not the owner yet [01:35] im aware i suck! however! i have seen kismet's gui! and there is one! [01:35] any ati users here who has tried the new fglrx-installer? [01:35] FAT filesystems have no concept of security permissions [01:35] skrite, huh?

[01:36] in the middle of creating a disk image my computer shuts down [01:36] its not overheated, I've felt it, and just took the damn thing apart and dusted it [01:36] subone, does apache know you've set your document root to that hd? [01:37] yes [01:37] the giu you seen is gkismet [01:37] subone, man mount... fat has mount options to override the default permissions... you can use umask to make the files world read/write, or user to set them to be owned by the apache user [01:37] TAHNK YOU [01:37] MrD_: There are many, way to many to name in #channel. [01:37] Is Firefox needed for Ubuntu?

[01:38] considering it never did that when I burned video DVDs in Windows, any suggestions? [01:38] V3RR3Z, of course you can... [01:38] V3RR3Z, no there are many brousers you can use [01:38] subone: What happens if you try to browse the folder as the apache user (sudo -u www)? [01:38] V3RR3Z : just instalol another browser [01:38] subone, I know it sounds weird but does it know? If you havent told it and restarted it, it wont point to the correct place actually it will break [01:38] KK I am switching to epiphany.. [01:38] kwtm: Pirate_Hunter looks like this system tried to enter power saving mode, instead of activating the screen saver. In effect, this system is configured for power saving at its lower levels, even when I have power saving turned off. [01:38] subone, yea... what did you set the line in fstab to, and what command did you run that generated that output? [01:39] MrD_: I am not familiar with that package,application, have you tried K3b or any other packages? [01:39] so just sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox? [01:39] psusi, "/dev/sdb1 /media/FreeAgent\040Drive vfat rw,umask=000 0 0" [01:39] yes, K3b is even harder to use!

[01:41] psusi, `sudo mount -a` then dmesg [01:41] I have a general OS Concepts question... What happens when the OS gets an interrupt in the middle of handling an interrupt. Do interrupts queue in some way? [01:41] subone: Oh... duh. It'd help to tell sudo to give you a shell, too. (sudo -u www -s) [01:41] Then you can try to cd to your DocRoot and see what happens. [01:41] subone, what if you do sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt -o rw,umask=000 [01:43] alpicola, ls: cannot open directory /media/FreeAgent Drive_/: Permission denied [01:43] I get these errors in K3b: Found files bigger than 2 GB. Project does not contain all necessary Video DVD files. Could not determine size of resulting image file [01:43] Viz3: For the most part, yes. [01:43] subone, try sudo ls [01:43] does k3b make an image or burn? [01:43] MrD_: Have you tried GnomeBaker? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvd/Burning [01:43] XuMuK, that would defeat the purpose [01:43] Pirate_Hunter: I'm sure. The system is a power edge server, I went through the bios prior to install. I think I will disable ACPI, been wanting too anyway. [01:43] subone: Check permissions on /media. [01:43] subone, apparently what you're trying is a pain hope this link helps, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=745661 [01:44] again, it's just ISO butning, is there anything that skips that mediary step? [01:44] MrD_, i'd suggest you try devede for trying to convert video to dvd, but i'm not sure even it will be able to handle mp4. good luck man. [01:44] its very tedious considering every other OS comes with stuff to burn video files to video DVD in one step out of box [01:44] Viz3, it depends.. generally though yes, interrupts that can not be serviced now because they are disabled are queued [01:44] psusi, same error when i run that [01:44] hi all new to ubuntu. Installed enlightenment e17. It didnt go good. Cant logout to choose Gnome again. please help.There is no logout option, just restart. [01:45] if it's not too much to ask, how does it depend, or can you possibly link me something to read on it? [01:45] I've tried some googling [01:45] oh, while that reminds me, any good Ubuntu tutorial sites? [01:45] most I've found are very old, and aren't helpful really [01:45] subone, and if you drop the -o part? [01:45] I've googled Ubuntu blogs and Ubuntu fansites [01:45] Pirate_Hunter, Vigo no, not clear, want to dump all the terminal output that i have in there to a text file [01:46] should have run my process with > somefile.txt, but too late now [01:46] subone, what does sudo blkid say the type of the fs is on the device? is it vfat or fat32? [01:47] skrite: Ah, ok, Thank you for the update or added information. [01:47] skrite, oh you mean redirect i.e. cat /proc/mdstat > foobar.txt you my want to look online for better examples [01:47] psusi, same error without the -o part [01:47] also, can you associate your user with root privledges without using terminal? [01:47] Viz3: Try googling 'linux interrupts' and check out the top several results. [01:47] subone, I'm thinking vfat is the wrong fs type... see what blkid says, or try -t auto [01:47] oh what... /dev/sdb1: UUID="7ED05D74D05D341D" LABEL="FreeAgent Drive" TYPE="ntfs" [01:48] i could have sworn i used FAT [01:48] subone, bingo, it's ntfs, not fat ;) [01:48] i feel dumb now [01:48] lemme try "/dev/sdb1 /media/FreeAgent\040Drive ntfs defaults 0 0" [01:48] subone, meh... ntfs is better anyhow... just change vfat to ntfs [01:48] sonuva [01:49] tyty [01:49] sorry for my stupidity [01:49] subone, you still need the umask or uid option to override the permissions [01:49] no it works now [01:49] subone: Yay! Glad you got that working =) [01:49] subone, why change the document root that is what I don't understand would be easier to move the user directory [01:49] subone, mount works, sure... but for apache to read it... [01:49] psusi, already tested [01:50] alpicola and psusi, thanks [01:50] Pirate_Hunter, because i store my files on my external drive for portability... [01:50] subone: A gentle warning, though. If that device isn't the first USB device you plug in after boot, your automount might break. [01:51] ugh you're f'n kidding me, I just installed Samba and it didn't work right... [01:51] alpicola, thats what i was asking earlier, anyway to make sure? [01:51] I get all these requests for things that don't exist [01:51] subone, hmmm but your moving the documentroot, that the internal of apache, am I getting things wrong most would move the web directory to the external instead or make a backup of it to the external drive [01:51] subone, yea, you should mount it by UUID not device [01:52] MrD_, dont associate your user to the root, keep it in the admin group [01:52] Pirate_Hunter, what are you talking about backup? changing the docroot is as easy as "DocumentRoot '/media/FreeAgent Drive/Projects/www/'" [01:52] it is, but I always need to put in my password [01:52] !language | MrD_ [01:52] MrD_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [01:52] subone: What psusi said. Or give it a custom /dev node using UDEV - http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html [01:52] and it wouldnt let me share a folder [01:52] can't say that? dang...sorry [01:53] I'm having an issue with smb also. . from windows it prompts for a password and it won't take any combination of username/pw I have [01:53] subone, never mind when you said docroot I thoguth you meant the internal directory not the www/ hmmm you shouldve stated that as I been looking at something completely different and too complex [01:54] doctorZeus, I had that problem too, use your Windows account name [01:54] or your Ubuntu credentials, I forget which it was [01:54] and you need to make the users in samba [01:54] I've tried both.. I even synched the windows account/pass with my ubuntu [01:54] hmm [01:54] hey guys [01:54] you made the Window account in Samba [01:54] alpicola, psusi, ty "UUID=7ED05D74D05D341D /media/FreeAgent\040Drive ntfs defaults 0 0" works [01:55] anyone running ubuntu 10.04? [01:55] like mine is Eric-PC on my Win machine and I made Eric-PC on Samba [01:55] i did smbpasswd -a and synched that user and pass with the windows account AND ubuntu account [01:55] subone, good.. that way it won't matter if it ends up on sdc instead of sdb [01:55] alpicola, psusi, Pirate_Hunter, whoever else helped, ty so much [01:55] subone: glad it's working! [01:55] it was really messy when I did it, but I know I did it somehow... [01:55] you edited conf right? [01:56] and that the folders are sharable [01:56] Pirate_Hunter: Update, pm-utils and acpid were still active - even though they were "disabled" They no longer exist on my system :) [01:56] subone, think they deserve the thanks I was clueless, oh well next time... [01:56] man I wish I could remember, maybe you even need to do it as \\MACHINE\sharedfolder\ for it to work [01:56] I haven't edited config.. the workgroup was correct for windows and from what I've read so far that's all that needs to be modified there [01:56] greezmunkey, i ahve no clue what youre trying to achieve but hope you dont break your system [01:57] you tried entering in the Ubuntu account cred on Windows? [01:57] (I'm sure you have) [01:57] How do you begin to troubleshoot hibernate? [01:57] I hibernate my system, and when I start it back up again, it's as if I turned the computer off. [01:57] MrD_, http://burk.crabula.com/index.php?title=Main_Page near the bottom it has a samba tutorial you might want to look at [01:58] oh1 [01:58] doctorZeus, did you restart your computer? [01:58] Pirate_Hunter: It's a desktop, and I don't want / need power management. It crashed my system, so it goes away. That's it, that's all. [01:58] because Samba doesn't start on startup by default, that messed me up ocne [01:58] coldboot|home, old news its to do with a bug or bad settings with swap, you can find it online or someone here with more experiance can help you [01:58] Hey - I got this wifi card from eBay, it's a generic "chinese" one, it only comes with a windows driver [01:58] greezmunkey, oh ok fair enough === Nijverheid is now known as Guest39738 [01:59] I am trying to get "Aero Snap" function to work.

Like 3 months ago when I used download helper to download a video to youtube and convert it into an mp3, it worked perfectly. Now when I do it, the file is downloaded but it results into a "failedconversion.avi". Whats wrong?? [02:04] luis_: Could you try being a bit more descriptive? [02:04] ehhmm.. [02:05] luis_: What's your command string? What does it output? What's your source file? Did you change anything since it last worked? Etc. [02:05] hey i'm having a problem w/ updates ... my g/f accidently unplugged my machine while updates were running ... tried to complete update and it says this:: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. [02:06] i thought everything was working fine but figured I would restart samba service and it told me it wasn't installed and I had to download samba4..so deeper down the rabbit hole I go [02:06] I ran that command an nothing happens [02:06] camel_: Did you? [02:06] still no updates [02:06] There is an addon to firefox called download helper than uses a file converter called ffmpeg. When you download a video from youtube using DH, when the download finish, the addon uses ffmpeg to convert the video in any format you input. It worked nice like 3 months ago, now when I used it today the file (any file actually...) results into a failedconversion.avi [02:06] Sup guys. [02:06] I hate to be a major pain with all these questions, but this one is a cool one and isn't really simple. How can I discover a computer daisy-chained with an ethernet cord? [02:06] I think I cannot be more descriptive [02:06] camel_: Once it finished, have you tried running updates again? [02:07] alpicola, yes ... it comes up with the same error after running that command [02:07] camel_, try apt-get -f install/update and see if that helps [02:07] I haven't experienced any problems with my ubuntu laptop setup yet.

Linux doesn't really care, as long as you're consistant (i.e., read the whole factoid :) [02:24] hi anyone have a acer d250? [02:24] rww: i did read the whole factoid. the problem here is that i'm trying to set up Postfix to relay emails through my ISP's SMTP server... and it doesn't like "localhost" as the domain name. [02:25] psusi: i'm on a home network, but i do have a static internal ip [02:25] http://pastebin.com/e7pxL4Vk [02:25] cowguru2000, sounds like your isp's smtp server requires authentication to relay mail [02:25] there it is hatake_kakashi [02:25] psusi: yes, it does. i tried to set that up in the postfix config [02:25] cowguru2000: oh. so you probably need to change your postfix configuration to use something other than your computer's hostname for outgoing mail, which I have no idea how to do (I'm not a postfix person :( [02:25] ok, I turned on ubuntu and the wifi card wont get online [02:25] holmser, yeah I was reading it, hmm old card [02:25] when I type "lspci" it picks up the wifi card [02:25] rww: hmmmm alrighty thanks [02:26] brez, pastebin (not paste) your lspci -nnk output [02:26] holmser, pastebin your dmesg output [02:26] cowguru2000, I have been trying to set up postfix for a few weeks now. Same issue. Can you send mail by telneting in from localhost? [02:26] thats going to be difficuly [02:26] this box has not net access [02:27] cowguru2000, I've never configured postfix to authenticate with an upstream smtp server, but if you do it right, I don't think your hostname matters [02:27] brez, you don't have a spare wired cable?

[02:38] ok [02:38] eryn_1983, go up to tabs on firefox click tools addons than find type shockwave and install it ahlah wah [02:38] There is an addon to firefox called download helper than uses a file converter called ffmpeg. When you download a video from youtube using DH, when the download finish, the addon uses ffmpeg to convert the video in any format you input. It worked nice like 3 months ago, now when I used it today the file (any file actually...) results into a failedconversion.avi [02:40] eryn_1983, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1358591 [02:40] eryn_1983, this works for me [02:40] internet connection dropped out [02:41] seems weird that i get these error messages in the update manager: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/KGQMeZTc [02:41] this is after i had tried to install handbrake into the system [02:42] datta: its a bad url === GhostEyes is now known as RainbowEyes [02:43] ChogyDan: really, it's coming good for me [02:43] luis_, please provide the exact command and the error message pastebin if more than a single line [02:43] ChogyDan: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/KGQMeZTc you sure [02:43] datta: not the pastbin, the repo [02:44] ChogyDan: i am sorry about that mistake i made [02:44] datta: Looks like a known bug...

I just needed a computer to do homework on [02:52] i have a question - where can download ubuntu x64 cuz in official site is only x86 [02:52] holmser, afaik its either the driver issue (which will probably require backports) or its a firmware issue [02:52] holmser: If the bios is saying no bootable found it could be an actual issue with the hard drive. - Ive seen others do similer things befor dieing. [02:52] holmser: is it a desktop machine? or laptop?

Right now I'm on Windows Vista using a fakeRAID 1 array with two 250-gigabyte hard drives for data protection. My question is, should I use fakeRAID, software RAID, or would it be better for me to install Ubuntu on just one hard drive and backup my data to the other one? [03:06] shayne, ya its xprobe i think [03:07] oops nope thats not it one sec [03:07] hatake_kakashi: i downloaded that one and it dosnt have a user graphical face [03:08] hello [03:08] shayne, no it doesn't and it needs to be configured prior to be able to output various info from the monitoring chip/s [03:09] what is the name of the new ubuntu font used? "light" [03:09] shayne, libsensors but you have to configur it [03:09] hatake_kakashi: im looking for one that has a graphical face to it. i want it so when im downloading for long periods of time i can make the fan spin as fast as it can so my laptop dosnt overheat [03:10] libsensors shayne [03:10] i use them for temp monitor [03:11] hatake_kakashi: im looking for one that has a graphical face to it. i want it so when im downloading for long periods of time i can make the fan spin as fast as it can so my laptop dosnt overheat [03:11] what is the name of the new ubuntu font used version "10.04"? [03:11] shayne, I read you the first time, no need to repeat yourself [03:12] shayne, and no I don't know of any with fancy graphical front end, I use lmsensors along with gkrellm to only monitor readings [03:12] hatake_kakashi, - tell him libsensors [03:12] I just recently installed ubuntu 9.10 on a friends computer and he use to connect to the net by means of netzero with windows but I cant seem to figure out how to get it to work on his linux machine, any ideas? [03:12] hiexpo, I don't think at this rate he's into configuring stuff, he wants all the fancy push button GUI things [03:12] and you said xprobe before? [03:13] hatake_kakashi, - oh windows :) [03:13] anyone know why my tightvnc connection freezes after authentication with my ubuntu box? [03:13] that was a typo sorry libsensors is the one [03:13] hiexpo, yes the ones with big shiny buttons to push and make you go happy.. [03:13] is there a way i can configure his netzero stuff with GNOME ppp [03:13] I have a RAID question. I'm using Vista on a fakeRAID 1 array right now and I still want data protection under Ubuntu. So my question is, should I use fakeRAID, software RAID, or should I just install Ubuntu on one hard drive and make backups to the other? [03:14] i don't know if the software uses the wrong protocol or what. If so, what windows software would facilitate the connection? [03:15] tightvnc? [03:16] Totakeke, huh? data protection and fakeraid are unrelated [03:16] Lm-sensors is a hardware health monitoring package for Linux. It allows you [03:16] to access information from temperature, voltage, and fan speed sensors. It [03:16] works with most newer systems [03:16] hatake_kakashi: i will configure if i need to, i was just wondering if there was a easier way. [03:16] Totakeke, ohh, or did you mean fault tolerance, as opposed to encryption? [03:16] shayne, no I don't know of any easier way, let alone to adjust fan speeds [03:17] Totakeke, if you want to dual boot with windows, fakeraid is a good option since it is supported by both... if you are going to use Ubuntu only, then software raid is a little better supported [03:19] hatake_kakashi, - i just googled it and it was the first page with drivers safety included lol http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=846480 [03:19] psusi: I meant fault tolerance, yes. I should mention that I don't plan on dual-booting Windows (good riddance =P) [03:19] oi [03:20] Totakeke, then linux software raid is a bit better supported than fakeraid [03:21] Aye. [03:21] Alright, thanks. [03:21] How do I check what version of ubuntu I'm running? [03:22] Nalf: cat /etc/issue [03:22] Nalf, lsb_release -a [03:23] Nalf, what version did ya install ? [03:23] I attempted to upgrade to 10.04, but the upgrade failed and now it is no longer giving me the option to upgrade. What to do what to do?:P [03:23] oh [03:23] Nalf: can you afford to reinstall ? [03:23] I suppose I could. [03:23] Yeah.

How should I partition my hard drives? I searched quite a bit but couldn't find how much space to dedicate to each partition. I have two 250-GB hard drives. [03:26] Totakeke, everyone one has there own theory but i give 5 gigs to swap [03:26] i type a command into a terminal, and it does nothing, what is wrong? [03:26] what is a useful program for measuring how much data has passed through an interface? [03:26] I need monthly stats [03:26] ka0tic, whatcommand [03:27] What about / and /home? And are there any other mount points (I believe that's what they're called) I should make? [03:28] hiexpo: any command "ls" "date" "cat" nothing works [03:29] Totakeke: I give the amount of ram I have to my swap, 20GB for root, and the rest for /home. [03:29] firefox won't save my tabs from last time, and won't restart after adding addons. after hitting restart firefix, it just closes and won't restart. if I then open firefox again it goes to startpage of firefox [03:30] Griffinzz: killall firefox this happens sometimes when you have 2 instances running..

[03:31] Totakeke, swap really dpends on how much ram you have. If you have 8GB of RAM, just put 2GB to swap you'll be fine. It's not gonna get used anyway. [03:31] Anyone here use fluxbox or awesome window managers? [03:31] ka0tic, if you just type date nothing [03:31] wiggums-the-half, look out permissions...

I know how much space to give to swap, but the other mount points are what I'm asking about. I guess my question should be (I'm pretty much a Linux newb) what exactly goes in /? [03:34] you just have boot swap and main [03:34] Totakeke: installed packages, very small stuff. 20-30GB is more than enough.. I use 20GB [03:35] !partitions | Totakeke [03:35] Totakeke: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap [03:35] it also depends on what you are doing with it 20 30 gigs goes fast with some things [03:35] !fstab | Totakeke [03:35] Totakeke: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system.

[03:52] *getting the hang of [03:52] info for? [03:52] wiggums-the-half: what kind of info? [03:52] amagee: is this every time you shutdown? [03:52] switch10_: yes [03:52] properties of external drive/folder info [03:52] it used to work fine, it's been doing this for a few weeks at least [03:53] hi [03:53] amagee: since a new kernel upgrade? [03:53] what is the command to reboot / [03:53] switch10_: i'm not sure, possibly.. [03:53] phoenix24: reboot [03:53] wiggums-the-half: Is that your drive's root, ~/media/NUBS? [03:54] amagee: do you see a GRUB screen when you boot your machine? [03:54] switch10_: yes [03:54] no, it is a usb 1TB storage, that way I can upgrade/fresh install without losing media [03:54] amagee: I suggest trying one of the other kernel versions, the second one from the top should be fine.. [03:55] amagee: what if you reboot the system? same issue? [03:56] switch10_: yeah [03:56] my screen flickers once every few minutes, is there a fix? [03:56] i'll try using the second kernel and see what happens, then i'll be back [03:57] amagee: that is your best bet.. [03:57] amagee: look at bug reports too. there may be a fix [03:58] lets see [03:59] I cannot play dvd's with any player, heres the error: http://pastebin.com/A4qCNgYS [03:59] kerebrus, you need libdvdcss [04:00] so how do i get wine to work? anyone? [04:00] hiexpa already installed [04:00] kerebrus: ubuntu-restricted-extras .. that package normally fixes all [04:00] what do you mean get to wrk john [04:01] i downloaded wine [04:01] and i'm trying to install an exe file [04:01] kerebrus, install the mediabuntu repos and than install ubuntu restricted estras libdvdcss libdvd read libdvd nav [04:02] also win32 codecs [04:02] well, I am going to hit the hay, have to be up in 6 hours...I will keep trying though... [04:06] hope this done it [04:07] hiexpo no i have all that installed already [04:07] what player you using [04:08] Xfce [04:08] switch10_: i tried the second kernel but it still didn't work. i even tried the oldest kernel in the list (2.6.28-16) but even that didn't work. [04:10] Hey guys, I'm having trouble. I'm trying to get aircrack-ng to work so I can pen test my wireless network (pretty sure somebody's been torrenting on my connection). I've got ALMOST everything installed but the website says I need to patch my driver. I've got the .patch file, but I'm not entirely sure what to do with it. Help? [04:11] paraplegicpanda: just change your network to wpa and set a decent passphrase, that will fix your problem? [04:11] paraplegicpanda: Which card do you have? [04:12] acicula: The problem is that I have WPA with a strong passphrase. Just got a letter from Warner Brothers though, and I haven't been downloading. [04:12] format specifiers for printf(); [04:12] soreau: rtl8180 [04:12] Hooye [04:13] paraplegicpanda: You don't need to patch your drivers for monitoring, only for injection [04:13] k-n0-x_x-g_z_2-k, ? [04:13] and BTW what annoying nick... [04:13] paraplegicpanda: Try running airodump-ng with your current iface and see what happens [04:13] emotions are not of use to machines [04:14] amagee: hmm. did you make any changes to your system right before this started happening? or was it completely random? Do you have any disks mounted? [04:14] paraplegicpanda: well the only way to get around wpa is by guessin the passpphrase, so unles its really simple its pretty unlikely someone else is using it. Some routers maintain a log of macs that have connected, could have a look at that? [04:14] soreau: I know, monitoring works fine. I'm trying to run a pen test, though, to see just how easy my connection is to break in to [04:14] k-n0-x_x-g_z_2-k, stupid questions either ;) === u is now known as Guest58737 [04:14] switch10_: i really can't remember, as i can't even remember exactly when it started happening, it was a while ago [04:14] how do i see what disks i have mounted [04:14] amagee: type mount [04:14] boolean expressions are of use. then it will be quantum states of electrons [04:15] amagee: any samba shares or anything like that? external USB hard drives, etc? [04:15] umm i have something called gvfs-fuse-daemon, i'm not sure what that is and it doesn't seem familiar [04:15] what ? [04:16] acicula: My MAC monitoring was turned off by default, stupid Belkin. Anywho, I've got it turned on now and I'm checking it every once in a while, but I'm currently trying to figure out exactly how they got in, if they did. [04:16] paraplegicpanda: You still don't need injection for WPA. Just capture the handshake and crack with dictionary. If you have WPA* encryption, the only way to crack it is with brute force approach. And that quickly becomes impossible with a full 63 char key using random characters [04:16] Does your router support mac filtering? [04:16] switch10_: here's the whole output: http://dpaste.com/179500/ .. i don't understand very much of it [04:17] s/quickly becomes impossible/could take up to 8 years [04:17] hello [04:17] paraplegicpanda: it seems unlikely, cracking wpa/wpa2 is really hard [04:17] bem ? [04:18] can i use a USB keyboard for the installation of ubuntu? [04:18] as long as its not made up of standard words like bookcatbomb [04:18] Raphioso: Yes. [04:18] ok thank you :) goodbye [04:18] amagee: ok yes, so you have a network drive? i.e. you connect to a server of some kind right? [04:19] Fglrx refers to the proprietary driver, correct? [04:19] switch10_: umm yeah i might have set one up, i haven't used in ages and didn't even realise it was still there [04:19] soreau: Okay, yeah, it's not 63 hars like it should be. It's 8. But it contains upper/lower case letters and a special character. I agree it seems highly unlikely, hence why I switched my router from WEP to WPA when I first got it. Still, I'm curious to find out IF it's possible to break through in a reasonable matter of time, like a neighbor that's had their desktop trying to break in for months. I do live in an apartment building. [04:19] paraplegicpanda, what is your incrition wepor wpa [04:19] hiexpo: incrition wepor? [04:19] switch10_: how do i find it? [04:20] paraplegicpanda, you said you was tring to see how easy it is is your encryption wep or wpa ? [04:20] amagee: that depends on where it is being mounted. Usually in /media [04:20] how do i find out where it's mounted [04:20] hiexpo: WPA [04:21] although i think i know now [04:21] amagee: here: http://xexpress.org/2008/5/3/Ubuntu%20shutdown%20problem/ [04:21] and a long passphrase 12 digits or greater [04:21] paraplegicpanda: The only way it would be possible is if they already had your wpa key in a text file. Otherwise, testing all probable combinations would take years on any modern desltop pc [04:21] amagee: you can remove it in /etc/fstab [04:22] switch10_: it doesn't seem to be in /etc/fstab [04:22] soreau: Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's pretty much impossible. Regardless, I'd like to take a crack at it myself to see whether or not I can do it. [04:23] paraplegicpanda: you dont have to touch a flame to know it burns ;) [04:23] paraplegicpanda: You can. Just read the wpa/wpa2 page on aircrack-ng.org [04:23] amagee: no nfs/cifs mounts? [04:23] switch10_: nope [04:23] paraplegicpanda: If you received a letter from warner bros. saying they have evidence you stole a flick, kindly explain to them that they're mistaken. However, when you get a serious letter like that, it usually means they have more evidence than just a hunch [04:24] acicula: You just put a smile on my face :-D [04:24] suddenly my desky [04:24] acicula: A child might not understand that flame+burning=hot [04:25] soreau: I'm not so sure about that, I've gotten letters from Sony and Viacom before when I WAS downloading their stuff. Not necessarily a lot of their stuff, either. Hence why I stopped using torrents. [04:25] amagee: have you tried powering off with the command line? [04:25] suddenly my desktopp for one user has just become a black screen. Application,Places, System is not seen anywhere. what could be done? [04:26] paraplegicpanda, and weird passphrases are harder because the password has to be in the dictionary /// but if someone that is good wants in they will get in thats the problem with wireless its an open world full of airspace [04:26] switch10_: no, i haven't.. should i shutdown -h now? [04:26] amagee: yes [04:26] ok i'll try that [04:26] back soon [04:26] amagee: its a long shot... [04:26] Anywho, while I don't mind musing the impossibilities of breaking into my network, all I really need to know is how to apply the patch file so I can use packet injection. Also because I have downloaded .patch files before and had no clue what to do with them. [04:26] paraplegicpanda: If you have the type of key you say you have, then I'd say it's uncrackable and the culprit is someone that has access to your pc, or in a more extreme case, has hard wire access to your router [04:27] paraplegicpanda: As I stated already, you don't need injection to crack your WPA key [04:27] WPA-PSK-TKIP2 [04:27] soreau: My apologies, I didn't see that response. [04:27] researcher1, I suppose you can login on your user account, after logging in you are having this issue, right? If so, you can try "killall -HUP nautilus" [04:27] paraplegicpanda: you need to apply the patch to the kernel module source, easier to grab a distro like backtrack who comes with prepatched modules though [04:27] *which [04:27] maginot:i m trying that [04:28] hi all === syn-ack is now known as Guest79638 [04:28] How do I turn on remote listening (514 UDP) for rsyslog in Ubuntu? I edited /etc/rsyslog.conf and that didn't help..... usually there there's a "-r" option you had to add somewhere to a startup options but I have no idea where to put it for ubuntu. === nathan_ is now known as ae86-drifter === Guest79638 is now known as syn-ack [04:30] /j #ubuntu+1 [04:30] paraplegicpanda, and in order to test yourself you will have to have a second computer to log into your wireless modem/router so you can get the handshake [04:30] I've got a copy of bactrack 4 on a disc already, but I'd prefer to have a patched driver to use from the Ubuntu distro already on my PC. I tried to find out how to apply it via Google, but my search results turned up old obscure forum posts lacking in full explanations and highly technical jargon that I had trouble following. I don't need kindergarten style instructions, just something that tells me how to use it. [04:30] handshake as a socket has been established between two nodes [04:31] hiexpo: I do, I'm actually using the second computer (my Ubuntu laptop) right now. [04:32] k-n0-x_x-g_z_2-k, - lol [04:32] paraplegicpanda, what are you trying to do ? I don't think cracking wireless connection is subject for this channel... [04:33] Can someone tell me an EASY way to set up a ssh tunnel on my home ubuntu box so I can bust through my firewall at work? [04:33] maginot: I'm not trying to find out how to crack a wireless network, I just need to know how to use a .patch file. [04:33] paraplegicpanda, that is all? patch -Np1 -i [04:33] switch10_: no luck :( [04:33] paraplegicpanda, do that inside the source directory which will be patched [04:33] brodymcd: you are trying to access your work PC via SSH? [04:33] paraplegicpanda, and, I'm supposing you are using a 1 level patch [04:34] topic for this channel is: prompt> [04:34] sudo apt-get remove k-n0-x_x-g_z_2-k [04:34] k-n0-x_x-g_z_2-k, please go to #ubuntu-offtopic for general discussion. [04:34] thank you. [04:34] maginot: I would say yes, but I'm not sure. It's a wireless driver patch, rtl8180-0.21v2.patch [04:35] maginot: AFter I ran killall -HUP nautilus, the top bar has appeared but it does not have the words Application,Places, System. What is the next step? [04:35] switch10: no... I want to be able to view blocked sites (youtube) at work... not even for malicious intent. I'm a music teacher and just sometimes want to show performance clips. I don't know much about this but from a little reading think this is the way to go? [04:35] paraplegicpanda: The key is, you must have the driver source and run the patch command from the source directory [04:35] researcher1, that you may have to add with you right mouse button [04:35] ok [04:35] amagee: I am out of ideas, but this is definitely a bug. try a few of the fixes here http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rlz=1B7GGLL_enUS370US371&q=ubuntu+9.10+shutdown+hang&aq=o&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai= [04:35] yep, trying those [04:35] !panels | researcher1 [04:35] researcher1: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [04:36] the most annoying thing is i get absolutely no output [04:36] paraplegicpanda, okay, so try it and see the output. [04:36] maginot so I should copy it to the driver file directory and run it from there, or I should copy the driver file to a new directory with the patch file and run it? [04:36] brodymcd: use a proxy server? like your students do :) [04:37] paraplegicpanda, just go inside the source directory of the rtl8180 driver, and add the path to the patch file after -i option === peter is now known as Guest1658 [04:38] maginot: kk, thanks. I'll find the driver directory and give that a try. [04:38] switch10: how? is that better than the tunnel or vice versa? I can learn stuff well if given some tips... just overwhelmed [04:38] its a patch / patchmeaning fixing what you have already / patch not meaning replacing [04:38] ok. maginot: Thanks. [04:38] brodymcd: like http://www.youhide.com/ for example. there are literal thousands of others, so chances are your firewall will let a few through.. [04:38] paraplegicpanda, but did you downloaded the driver from realtek ? [04:39] switch10: thanks will try! [04:39] maginot: no, it's the default driver installed with Karmic, I'm assuming [04:39] paraplegicpanda, so first you have to pick the driver source to apply a patch to it [04:40] maginot, - no spoon feeding [04:40] maginot: as in I need to find the driver already on my computer, or download a new source? === talishte is now known as te_sampo === te_sampo is now known as chipuste [04:41] It looks like I'm missing the rsyslog file in /etc/default.... is there any reason for that? Is there another package (I can't think of any) that would make it generate? [04:41] paraplegicpanda, you don't have the source on you computer, you have to first downloaded it, if you are using the default one provided by karmic so use apt-get to get the source [04:41] maginot: Kk [04:42] paraplegicpanda, apt-get --download source [04:43] paraplegicpanda, but I really think you source is inside the kernel, so may be easier to get the driver from realtek, but like I don't have realtek boards here I can't give you any further help [04:44] maginot: ooooh, I understand. So to apply the patch basically you're saying I'd have to apply it to my system kernel? I guess I'll just go with a Backtrack livedisc, lol [04:44] I have a PC running 9.10 with two different users. Shortly after setup, keyboard quit working completely under one of the users. Still works at the login screen and for the other user. Any ideas? [04:45] paraplegicpanda, right. But, why are you needing to patch you driver ? [04:45] Is there a way to change the taskbar font, without it changing the fonts in the applications? [04:46] maginot, - gonna hack the planet lol [04:46] hiexpo, was easier in the past ;) [04:46] how can i use httrack to pull images off of google [04:46] maginot: According to the aircrack-ng website I need to patch the driver to allow packet injection. I'm working on my own personal network pen test. [04:47] paraplegicpanda, well, I still prefer using a dlink card, have packet injection support out-of-the box [04:48] Can anone help me get 8.10 to work with photobucket? [04:48] kholby, what kind of keyboard? Did you tried anything to fix it already ? [04:49] maginot: If I decide to start screwing with my friends and messing with their networks I'll probably look into that. I probably will if I can get it to work on my home network. Otherwise I don't really want to spend any more money than necessary to figure this out. [04:49] maginot, - yes for us but we have all these new users migrating now from windows since linux got easier with a desktop and to many of them are posting this stuff on you tube making it public so everyone has become a hacker now it's a joke cant even run a terminal on there own and want to hack the planet [04:49] hello does anyone know what the offical photo manager for 10.04 is? will it be fspot still? [04:50] Thanks to everyone that helped me out, definitely appreciate the help. [04:50] can anyone help me to get photobucket to work with 8.10? [04:51] Tamnakz, is this photobucket a linux application? [04:51] brando753: can you be more specific? what exactly do you want to do? google is a very large website [04:51] maginot, the keyboard's a Dell. I have tried nothing so far. It's my mom's computer and I live out of town. [04:51] anyone using 10.04? [04:51] maginot: photobucket.com is a photosharing website [04:51] kholby, but it is PS/2, USB, Wireless, be more specific... [04:52] Tamnakz, and what kind of issue are you having, if it is online why not go there and use? [04:52] Hello guys, is there anyway I can have softraid 1 AND have the hds also encrypted? can i do these operations with the installer?? [04:52] Hey [04:52] hiexpo: I'm not trying to be snooty or anything but I just wanted to point out that I've been using linux for 5 years now, started on Slackware. I'm not a complete noob, but I'm not a pro either. I'm just trying to figure this out. I do still appreciate the help. I'm sure I'll be back soon.

[04:54] bobba, static port? Why not just use a link ? Can you tell what you are trying to do? [04:55] JayPro, umm, sorry man not sure about a 32bit install. FYI i use getdeb to install the 32bit version under 64os - but that's sort of a virtual library, not sure about any possible implications of installing it on 32, Good luck man. [04:55] maginot, I'm cool with that. [04:55] JayPro, s/getdeb/getlibs [04:55] I was able to change the font of the applications menu, places, system, and clock, but it also changes the font of pidgin, thunderbird, firefox, etc. anyone know how I can change the font of the applications menu et.al. without changing the font of the applications with it? [04:56] brando753: you have quite specific criteria (good thing) but you'll need to feed a script more specific pages. not just "google.com" -- that said, I've never fiddled with httrack (i think that's what you'd asked), but you can try playing with wget in a bash script. [04:56] kholby, well, you could try on a console: cd ~ && mkdir -v bkupfiles && mv -v .* bkupfiles/ [04:56] maginot: I have a rs232 level converter and a modem, but the ports change on each reboot and if I remove a device. It would be nice if they stay the same [04:57] AbuMaia: I don't know much about windows managers -- but I would think that the menu bar is an application just like any other and therefore is not differentiated in the window manager's eyes (gnome would be the window manager in this case) [04:57] bobba, how do you know which is the right port? [04:57] Hello guys, is there anyway I can have softraid 1 AND have the hds also encrypted? can i do these operations with the installer?? [04:58] thanks jzacsh [04:58] ZykoticK9 ahh okay thanks tho [04:58] maginot: well its only a problem with the gterm, as it needs to know what port the level converter is on. Maybe a dev rule would do it? [04:59] maginot: Okay. Moving the . folders appears to have fixed the problem. Thanks. Any idea what specifically might have caused it? [04:59] switch10_: ok, i've tried every solution i could find but no luck [04:59] JayPro, you could try to adapt the instructions from http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/gaming/error-while-loading-shared-libraries-libstdc-so-5 but i'm really not sure if it's a good idea to install this outdated/unsupported library on your system [05:00] where / how should i report this bug? [05:00] bobba, do you mean a udev rule, right? Well, if you port keep changing from udev, so sure, a udev rule will help, or you could try some bash script that tests for the right port and makes a synlink on /dev [05:01] Is there an easy way to move all files of a specific filetype from a filesystem into a single directory? For example, I have a hard drive with pictures on it in multiple directories and want to copy all of them into a single directory on another drive. [05:01] kholby: are you ok with the terminal? [05:01] kholby, use "find" with -exec for that, try "man find" to get more familiar [05:02] amagee: Absolutely. [05:02] ok then i second maginot's comment then :) [05:02] k [05:02] maginot: Yes a udev rule would be nice. Is there a good place to learn how to setup devices using udev? [05:02] how do i report a bug? i don't see the link anywhere on launchpad [05:02] bobba, you could probably start with the manual, man udev have some hints [05:03] robertzaccour, how do you know it is a bug ? [05:03] magicvibes, my screen flickers every few minutes it blinks. how could it not be a bug? [05:03] does anyone have a direct link? [05:03] maginot: Yes I will be brave. sometimes man pages can be tricky, and some are great. Thanks for the help :) [05:04] robertzaccour, it is probably not a bug, http://www.google.com.br/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=2&ved=0CAwQFjAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fbugs.launchpad.net%2Fubuntu&ei=PGG5S-ibOcSluAeasYCuDg&usg=AFQjCNFxwv3z_pD3xTare5ovbieNzPoujQ [05:04] ops [05:04] screen flickering is perfectly normal ok right [05:04] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu [05:05] everybody's screen flickers huh [05:05] robertzaccour, a problem with your configuration doesn't mean its a bug. First learn what a bug mean. [05:05] maginot, i didn't configure the flickering [05:05] Any good reason why slime should say "process lisp does not exist" when doing C-M-x even though the repl is working fine? [05:05] thanks for the link [05:06] maginot, which link do i click? i don't see it [05:07] oh i see [05:07] Where can I see the timeline for ubuntu? === u is now known as Guest80063 [05:08] wait i don't know where to go on this page [05:08] http://cgi.cs.indiana.edu/~oracle/index.cgi [05:08] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs where do i go from here? i don't see the link on the page [05:08] hello all...I'm trying to scan using ClamAV, but it's denying access in root files (which is where I need to scan). Is there a way to give ClamAV root privileges to scan root files? [05:09] ello - canna seem to get empathy to run at startup - is there a trick, or a global settings file thingy somewhere where all that startup stuff is? [05:09] all [05:10] hi all [05:10] ljamisonii, are you root? No one can scan root files without being root, that a reason on why there is no virus for linux [05:10] oh i think i got it [05:11] Any one no how to set up a dhcpd server [05:11] maginot: would I just use su- to gain the root access then run the scan while being logged as root? [05:11] ljamisonii, you could use "sudo" [05:11] ljamisonii, its a better approach [05:12] robertzaccour, A software bug is the common term used to describe an error, flaw, mistake, failure, or fault in a computer program or system that produces an incorrect or unexpected result, or causes it to behave in unintended ways. Most bugs arise from mistakes and errors made by people in either a program's source code or its design, and a few are caused by compilers producing incorrect code [05:12] how do i find out what version of the kernel i'm using [05:13] robertzaccour, you see, "miss configuration" isn't considered a bug. [05:13] @amagee: uname -a [05:13] on me: Linux silent-laptop 2.6.32-16-generic #25-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 9 16:33:52 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux [05:13] that means, my kernel is 2.6.32-16-generic [05:13] yep [05:13] cool thanks [05:14] Anyone know what package udevtest is in? [05:14] can some one direct me to a how to for ubuntu HDCP please [05:14] bobba, I think you have to use udevadm [05:14] bobba, udevadm test [05:14] bug reported :) [05:14] maginot: Thanks again. darn old pages :) [05:15] maginot: I tried using the "su-" command, but when I enter the password, it results in authentication failure [05:15] chuxxsss, ubuntu DHCP or HDCP ? [05:15] ljamisonii, sudo, no su. [05:16] so I just tried typing "sudo" and it gave the help list of options.. [05:17] ljamisonii, sudo [05:17] maginot, DHCP set one up for my mother-in-law. I am hoping to share my internet with her as she lives 86 metres away [05:18] chuxxsss, well, DHCP isn't mean do share anything ... [05:18] I just tried sudo clamav...not correct? [05:19] chuxxsss, if you are trying to share you internet, you will first have to "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" them set up everything else, a dhcp server is only needed to serve IPs for a network, which you may not need, since are just 2 computers [05:20] ljamisonii, I don't use clamav. But if clamav is you program name, so yes. [05:20] it said command not found.. [05:20] Ok I through it was for give people dynamic IP addresses. What I was think is set up to Wifi cards with one with a high gain antenna the other talking to the home network could this be done. Or am I really not think this out right [05:20] ljamisonii, I think you don't know what you are trying to do. Do you know that linux doesn't have computer virus problem, right? [05:21] maginot, Thank you for this good starting point :) [05:21] chuxxsss, I think won't be as easier as you think to get that work. You will need some knowledge to make that happen [05:22] yes, I'm aware. I'm actually trying to see if I can remove a virus on my Windows hard drive (Windows installed on sda1, Ubuntu installed on sdb1..two separate hard drives) I found a result on google that ClamAV can detect and remove viruses on a Windows partition. Since that partition lies in a root area, I need the necessary permissions [05:22] I can make the antenna. And get to Wifi cards I am a communication tech but have never done this one before [05:23] ljamisonii: you are on the right track.. You have installed clamAV? [05:23] switch10_, yes [05:24] How do I set the permission for the echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward [05:24] Where can I see the release timeline for ubuntu? [05:24] !lucid | EntityReborn [05:24] EntityReborn: 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 [05:24] thx [05:25] cual es l canal de ubunu en español? [05:25] anyone know how to get cwiid configured to use multiple keys assigned to a button like alt+tab? [05:26] rodowushu, #ubuntu-es [05:26] and you are trying to run it? [05:26] ljamisonii: ^^ [05:26] maco, know if the style items will be available online? (stickers, etc) [05:26] gracias [05:26] EntityReborn: not a clue [05:26] Most importantly, will some be available free? [05:26] hm/ [05:26] hm.* [05:26] switch10_, yes [05:27] ljamisonii: clamscan [05:27] EntityReborn: stickers arenot free. i tend to make-my-own for when i need stickers to give out at events [05:27] Well, I'd like one for my lappy :) [05:27] does anyone know how to change the keymap in ubuntu 9.10 for the console [05:27] I live in mexico, no place to make stickers here :) [05:27] you can do clamscan --help for more info too.. [05:27] pretty sure grub2 has a better font [05:28] switch10_: OMFG! YOU ARE MY NEW HERO! lol [05:28] not that the default is terrible just wanted to look at some choices [05:28] switch10_: no wonder why it wasn't working..I was trying to use sudo clamav [05:28] I installed ubuntu to a usb stick which runs my server which has no monitor. Everything was working perfectly until I rebooted it. Now when I ssh with the correct password I get an access denied error. Does the password reset on reboot? [05:28] bwallen: no [05:29] bwallen: did you maybe setup some firewall rules? [05:29] bwallen, sure that the USB booted properly? [05:29] maco: no firewall rules [05:30] bwallen, you get access denied, or connection refused? [05:30] on chrome, my flash plugin crashes. libflashplayer.so can I remover it? HOW? (I looked and didnt see how.) Do I have an alternative to install? [05:30] hi guys ... have anyone info how/why ultra edit (shareware) came in the repos ??? ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/552830 [05:30] 9.10 up from 9.04 [05:30] entityreborn: I think so. I can ssh to the box and it asks me for the username/password, it just acts as if the password is incorrect [05:30] ah [05:30] ok [05:31] tripelb, use firefox? [05:31] yeah, that works, lol crypt-0 [05:32] i dont trust google. [05:32] thanks crypt-0 [05:32] but google loves you === chipuste is now known as talishte [05:32] and I love the goog. The office is near here and they have a display that shows what's being searched for - I suppose worldwide. [05:33] must be fun driving by and see "albino midget porn" [05:34] lol [05:34] but is true about FF. Now that it collects its garbage it works. BUT I religiously shut it down and restart it to handle something better and "so far" no more freezes. [05:34] hi friends [05:34] I must rant, WHY OH WHY IS YAHOO THE DEFAULT SEARCH ENGINE FOR 10.04?????? [05:35] i have a problem with my dual boot system [05:35] google is a social engineering wet dream come true [05:35] No it's not you can change it to google [05:35] Hi, I'm having trouble installing karmic on my macbook pro, when I choose an option from the install menu it just hangs and doesn't do anything. [05:35] EntityReborn: because they paid for it? its easy to change.. [05:35] google > yahoo any day. [05:36] yes sir [05:36] really need a bash script "karmic10.04.sh" [05:36] With a proper query, If what I want isn't on the first search page, it generally doesn't exist. [05:36] Yahoo/Bing doesn't offer that. [05:36] i installed 9.04 along side windows xp but cant boot xp,it return an error that the hal.dll file is missing or corrupt [05:36] hmmm, no... that's not it "albino midget lesbian bondage"... okay, there we go [05:37] underdev, take that somewhere else? [05:37] offtopic here. [05:37] sorry [05:37] circuitman: what do you mean [05:37] 10.04 beta i think is the best so far, fixed bugs [05:37] i mean after installation i cant boot windows xp [05:37] circuitman: install ub ubuntu inside xp? [05:38] no [05:38] i have a generic question - How do I get a dump of all dns records stored in a remote nameserver? For example, I want all DNS records that are stored at alpha.redtigerhosting.com [05:38] in another drive [05:38] is there a command for it? [05:38] vpsnoob: don't think you can do that [05:38] circuitman: can you boot ubuntu [05:38] without brute-force spamming it [05:38] ya [05:39] when i try to boot xp i get an error that the hal.dll file is corrupt [05:39] hmmm thanks compgenius [05:39] circuitman: you didn't happen to delete ntldr or system32 did you? [05:39] circuitman: ok,you can run shell,then sudo update-grub [05:40] circuitman: your windows is corrupted [05:40] you're missing vital files in system32 [05:40] I cant shutdown via the upper right menu ... I can just set my away status. Reboot didn't help. What do I do? [05:40] circuitman: are you sure you did'nt modify anything in xp [05:40] ya am sure [05:40] been doing any hard shutdowns (turning off by holding the power putton or pulling the plug) lately circuitman? [05:40] haavaros, open terminal, type shutdown -h now [05:41] circuitman: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=466234 [05:41] circuitman, whats inside system32 is a windows problem and isn't touched by ubuntu install [05:41] i didnt touch anything in windows [05:41] circuitman: just try sudo update-grub [05:41] k [05:41] circuitman: have you been shutting down imporperly? [05:41] Getting this error while trying to install SDK and/ Emulator on Ubuntu 9.10: "Failed to rename directory /opt/android-sdk-linux_86/temp/PlatformPackage.new01 to /opt/android-sdk-linux_86/platforms/android-7". What to do? [05:41] update-grub will probablyn ot fix it [05:41] EntityReborn: Yeah, I know how to use terminal to shutdown, but I want it back in my menu [05:42] why are everyone trying to use update-grub? [05:42] its some missing files in system32 [05:42] ok,updating grub done [05:42] now will i be able to boot both 9.04 and xp [05:42] I don't think so [05:42] circuitman: to fix it, you put in your windows disk and select the windows partition and it should ask you to repair instead of install [05:42] circuitman: reboot [05:42] Hey guys I'm trying to boot to my linux partition using the ubuntu live CD but my linux partition resides on /dev/sda6, is it possible to boot to that location? [05:42] your problem will persist [05:42] update-grub doesn't help with system32 problems. [05:42] compgenius: tsyj2007 no update-grub wont fix it. he needs to repair his windows mbr [05:43] its not the MBR of windows [05:43] how to repair then [05:43] ubuntu doesn't touch that [05:43] RudestBuddhist, yes you can access your data on that partition, or once you mount it you can chroot to it [05:43] RudestBuddhist, yep, just set root parameter ar root=/dev/sda6 [05:43] circuitman read my last ^^ [05:43] circuitman: to fix it, you put in your windows disk and select the windows partition and it should ask you to repair instead of install [05:43] compgenius: no, but windows still reads it after grub [05:44] RudestBuddhist, root=/dev/sda6 on the livecd prompt off course [05:44] switch10_: it boots, but hal.dll missing means files (not just hal.dll) are missing in sys32 [05:44] tell me how to repair that particular file "hal.dll" [05:44] circuitman, thats not the topic of this channel. [05:44] circuitman: it isn't just that file [05:44] circuitman: mind if I pm you? [05:44] circuitman: you need a windows disk [05:45] switch10:then? [05:45] maginot: I get "Error loading Operating System" [05:45] ya i have windows disk [05:45] maginot: Which I think is windows complaining...? [05:45] RudestBuddhist, did you put root=/dev/sda6 on your livecd prompt ? [05:45] circuitman: I have pm'd you [05:46] circuitman: look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=466234 [05:46] maginot: I did, if I try to boot from my MBR I get the same error [05:46] maginot: I had a windows XP re-install just fail on me, that's what caused this [05:46] RudestBuddhist, I must imagine that sda6 isn't you linux root partition [05:47] maginot: It was listed that way in my grub file though.... [05:47] maginot: I feel like it's not taking the boot option, do I need any other parameters? [05:47] RudestBuddhist, if you just want to repair your boot loader you can do it after booting from the livecd without problems [05:48] Download the Windows XP iso from the internet and use VirtualBox. saves gigs and time [05:48] maginot: My live CD won't boot, it just takes me to a initramfs console [05:48] virtual box doesnt always work very well if your using an older comp [05:48] O.o [05:49] RudestBuddhist: you can repair GRUB from Ubuntu LiveCD. [05:49] I just use windows to game, so no virtualbox for me :( [05:49] hey guys.. I'm looking for a torrent program that I can run on a server.. the torrent will need to be able to be operated remotely, ie web interface if possible.. I want the web interface to have FULL control of the client, not just minimal controls.. anyone have any suggestions? [05:49] RudestBuddhist, root=/dev/sda6 boot=/boot [05:49] my liveCD only boots to an initramfs console it never actually boots to a GUI [05:49] thats true. [05:49] Hello... can anyone tell me how I could mount a SDHC card that I can only connect through my Canon digital camera? [05:49] The torrent client will also need to be extremely stable as it will be running on my mythtv server [05:49] Jester05: transmission has a webUI [05:49] maginot: Let me try that quick... [05:50] i would like to use my digital camera as a card reader, pretty much [05:50] RudestBuddhist: maybe your Li [05:50] switch10_, I haven't used it for some time but last I recall its webUI wasn't the greatest in terms of full featured functionality.. has it improved? [05:50] I have non-.jpg files on the card but I can't seem to accesss then when I read the memory card as from the camera itself connected to the pc [05:50] (i don't have a card reader) [05:50] RudestBuddhist: maybe your LiveCD is corrupted? [05:50] maginot: Still get an error loading operating system error [05:51] thats what I think. [05:51] how stable is azureous? [05:51] RudestBuddhist, I think you have to try another ubuntu livecd disk [05:51] I think this laptop is just crap [05:51] It didn't load up for me had to delete [05:51] I'll try another see if that helps [05:51] how can i use httrack to pull imagess off of google [05:51] can anyone tell me how to mount a SDHC flash card seperately from the camera that holds it as a whole? [05:52] I'm leaving, out. [05:52] Gapagos, are you running gnome or kde? [05:52] Jester05: I have it installed on my NAS and it works great. I just started using transmission so I don't know how it would compare to the older ones. It is not fully featured though. You could always use rtorrent, and administer remotely VIA SSH. [05:52] Jester05, gnome [05:52] Hey all - Question: [05:52] After what looked like a fine shutdown, my ubuntu nbr only boots to a white console now... [05:52] qBitTorrent is better [05:52] Gapagos, add disk mounter to your panel [05:53] switch10_, I considered that but I'd like to be able to log into it via webUI b/c not all pc's I'm around have ssh preinstalled [05:54] FM4k: can you get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+f1? [05:54] er... terminal is already open, sorta. [05:54] Jester05: yes. a webUI is nice. I am quite happy with transmission.. [05:54] I open my terminal with f12 [05:54] Jester05 I cannot find disk mounter, only MountManager and disk utility [05:54] Thanks for your help ya'll looks like at least I can get into XP now, I'll get this sorted out after work tomorrow! [05:55] switch10_: Theres a terminal in the top left hand corner of the screen, and taking up just over a quarter of the screen. The rest of the screen is black. If i mouse-over the black area, my cursor changes to the spinner. [05:55] Gapagos, you right clicked on your panel and clicked add right? [05:55] FM4k: can you alt+f2 to run stuff? [05:55] no [05:55] Gapagos, Diskmounter is within the first screen of options for me [05:55] switch10_: no sir - nothing happens from any of the function keys. [05:55] yes [05:56] try it. works for me [05:56] FM4k: put this in a terminal: gnome-appearance-properties %F [05:56] switch10_, I'm going to try a few out on my test station I think .. I want something that will have a low impact on the overall system performance.. its also running on my MythTV master backend server which duals as the main frontend for my living room so... the box is a bit taxed and only having a P4 2.8ghz... :-\ [05:57] Jester95 sorry i was looking in the software centre to add programs. I found it, but it only shows the local disks and the digital camera, not its memory card itself [05:57] FM4k: turn off visual effects. [05:57] switch10_: They are off. [05:57] Jester05 sorry i was looking in the software centre to add programs. I found it, but it only shows the local disks and the digital camera, not its memory card itself [05:57] Gapagos, is the card plugged in thru the camera or thru a card reader? [05:58] FM4k: have you restarted x? [05:58] Jester05, through the camera, i dont have a card reader [05:58] Gapagos, then somewhere in the camera's options you'll have to change how the camera is functioning [05:58] Jester05 i want to mount the memory card because it holds files not recognized by the camera [05:58] switch10_: I'm a total nub - I have no idea what "x" is lol - is that xserver or whatever? [05:59] FM4k: yes. hold right ALT+SYSREQ+k [05:59] Gapagos, yeah I know what you mean.. but you'll have to find a way for the camera to pass directly to the computer.. essentially the camera will act soully as a card reader [05:59] switch10_: I dont have a right-alt.. I just have left-alt. my ubuntu install is on a mini9 :-/ [06:00] FM4k: try the other alt... [06:00] Jester05 i can't find any option reguarding connection in the camera [06:00] Gapagos, depending on the camera it may not be an option but I highly doubt that if its even a semi modern camera.. most have it somewhere in the settings [06:00] hi uh, does anyone know the name of that gui application that simplifies hard drive mounting for disks without fstab entries? I'm on a livecd [06:00] It started with a p, but that's all I can remember [06:00] switch10_: what the hell is "sysreq"? [06:00] Gapagos, It probably has it something.. might call it disk mode or something [06:00] FM4k: "print screen" [06:01] oh.. [06:01] FM4k: a lot of newer keyboards do not properly dual-label that key [06:01] FM4k: system requirements. or print screen [06:01] switch10_: It just brings up a print-screen window, doesnt do anytihng [06:01] Jester05 it has no disk mode, usb mode, ftp mode, reading more or anything that sounds like that [06:02] pysdm, thanks anyway. [06:02] FM4k: it's a three-finger salute [06:02] FM4k: Yeah that left alt key is messing with you. === cabal is now known as Guest31831 [06:02] switch10_: That's awesome - Anyhow... how would I get "x" to start via terminal? [06:02] FM4k: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start [06:02] FM4k: startx [06:03] Gapagos, it may not be an option w/ that camera but I would assume theres some way it can be done.. it may have to be in a different mode to do it even.. maybe in playback vs. shoot mode.. idk but it is a camera controlled thing that you're trying to do [06:03] Jester05 all i can do about files is create folders, reset numbering and format the card [06:03] mneptok: ahh its different in Ubuntu? [06:03] switch10_: "fatal error", server already active for display 0 [06:03] Gapagos, what brand of camera? [06:04] Jester05 canon SD1000 [06:04] switch10_, I just checked out transmission.. not sure I like its UI :-\ [06:04] Gapagos, let me see what I can find real quick [06:05] Gapagos, I think I'd done that before w/ my S5IS, but I'm not certain [06:05] FM4k: if you already have X running you cannot start another one on the default screen. if you want to start on a second screen, use startx -- :1 [06:05] carick: I cant get X to start.. or show anything. I have no desktop. [06:05] FM4k: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [06:06] switch10_: we're back to a black background and a terminal screen in the top left :-/ [06:06] Is there a way to configure Ubuntu to use a NETGEAR USB network adapter? [06:07] Jester05 thanks for the help but i think canon is too protective of its camera [06:07] im losing hope and going to sleep [06:07] thanks for your help [06:08] Gapagos, shy of changing out the firmware for that model, I don't think it can be done [06:08] FM4k: ok that restarted x. when did this start happening? What caused it? [06:08] Jester05 yeah and id rather not brick my camera [06:08] Hello,anybody here === KB1JWQ is now known as TheOracle [06:08] Gapagos, yeah.. I think the point and shoot series lack that advanced functionality.. could always try a Hacked firmware tho.. look like I saw one that changed the game alot [06:08] !ask [06:08] 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. :-) === TheOracle is now known as KB1JWQ [06:08] rain_: nope. 1272 users and no one is active. [06:09] switch10_: I shut down using the "shut down option" from the ubuntu taskbar menu for it, it started happening after that shutdown, which was about an hour ago. [06:09] can someone help me get freeglut3-dev installed in ubuntu jaunty? It fails with unment dependecies and broken packages, here is the output http://pastebin.com/4pVaBuFk [06:09] Gapagos, I've run hacked firmware on my S5IS.. you just put it on the card so once you remove the card its back to factory [06:09] Tru [06:09] FM4k: this is a new install? and you are on 9.10? [06:09] FM4k: did you install binary graphic drivers off a manufacturers site and then upgrade your kernel? [06:09] Gapagos, but that's my model too.. I dunno how your firmware would be implemented [06:09] switch10_: This is a totally fresh install of ubuntu, the only thing I changed was I removed openoffice.org stuff, evolution, and added mozilla sunbird. [06:10] FM4k: and installed the recommended hardware drivers right? [06:10] Jester05 I think it's safer to just suck up to my roomates who have a card reader built in their hp / dell laptops for once [06:10] Gapagos, I had to put the .bin files in the root of my card and have the switch tossed to "locked" and it booted from the hacked firmware.. it was interesting to use but once I bought my D200 I lost interest ;) [06:10] switch10_: Yessir [06:10] FM4k: you are on 9.10? [06:10] Gapagos, you can also buy a 5in1 card reader in ebay for <$5 [06:11] switch10_: Yea - 9.10 netbook remix [06:11] yeah but I'm travelling to peru for 2+ months in like 10 days :D [06:11] so no time for shipping [06:11] Gapagos, it'd be here in 10 days.. [06:11] switch10_: Would removing openoffice cause ubuntu to take a dump like this? it shouldn't, right? [06:11] Jester05 not with Canada Post [06:11] Gapagos, I'm sure you could even get a USB SD reader from newegg [06:11] FM4k: no [06:12] but thanks for your help and have a good night :) [06:12] FM4k: no, its the drivers most likely [06:12] Gapagos, no prob man.. have a good night and a good trip! [06:12] FM4k: i would run /usr/bin/jockey-gtk and remove the driver.. [06:12] FM4k: and then restart.. [06:13] switch10_: whats teh exact command for that? [06:14] FM4k: you see a white screen? [06:14] switch10_: I see a white console window, yea. [06:15] FM4k: put in: /usr/bin/jockey-gtk a window should pop up.. [06:15] <`blackmk4`linux> how can i disable all power management [06:15] <`blackmk4`linux> i don't have x installed [06:16] Blackcamaro8, just go to system/pref/power management [06:16] vi and vim are not a part of any pkg? yet how are they present/ [06:16] window popped up [06:16] <`blackmk4`linux> i don't have x [06:16] <`blackmk4`linux> so i can't go to system [06:16] <`blackmk4`linux> this box is cli only [06:16] FM4k: click on disable. [06:16] FM4k: or remove.. [06:16] oh [06:17] wrapster, vim pkg is vim [06:17] maginot: yes i know that.. but dpkg -S /usr/bin/vim did not show anything..

It gets the IP automatically, I just changed the nameservers because with DNS set auto, it STILL wouldn't work [07:50] but apparently the nd5sums don't match [07:50] and it won't run [07:50] shazbotmcnasty, I will have a look. [07:50] shazbot, do you paly tribes [07:50] 32 or 64 bit shazbotmcnasty [07:50] 64 [07:50] but someone already got it [07:51] ok one sec [07:51] oh wait nvm [07:51] it's 32 [07:51] shazbotmcnasty, you want the link for 64 bits? [07:51] vista driver [07:51] no idea then, someone might know [07:51] i have 5 hard drives on my server pc...during install of Ubuntu server if i select LVM Will it use all of them or do i need to add them later? [07:51] sorry I forgot to say 64 bits [07:51] yes please [07:51] i have a problem i need a quick fix for.. when i try to start devfsd, i get No devfs on /dev, not starting [07:51] how do i fix? [07:51] 64 bit vista [07:52] shazbotmcnasty, http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/195.36.15/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [07:52] knoppies: thank you very much [07:52] shazbotmcnasty, that is the 32bit linux version. [07:52] for the 7 series. shaz [07:52] and aoh crud [07:52] not 32 bit [07:52] D: [07:52] D: [07:52] ;_; [07:52] shazbotmcnasty, want the 64bit?

[07:54] oops [07:54] shazbotmcnasty, http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/195.36.15/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-195.36.15-pkg2.run [07:55] yep [07:55] shazbotmcnasty, 64bit linux version for the 7 series, its about 4mb === mint is now known as MikeyPooh [07:55] that's what i gave him [07:55] 40 MB [07:55] thats what I meant [07:55] i have 5 hard drives on my server pc...during install of Ubuntu server if i select LVM Will it use all of them or do i need to add them later? [07:56] does anyone know how to get virtualbox guest additions working on a Lucid guest? I keep getting an error about building the kernel modules - Yes, i asked in #vbox but there's not much activity in there ;) [07:56] I might buy a new notebook panasonic cf-f9, screen resolution 1440×900. Is there any problem with this screen resolution? [07:56] hello, I don't get it, what is the option in wget to save the download to a specific file, I've read help, didn't find any option, that says output file, or anything similar. I want to save to a file other, then the one, specified by the url. [07:57] igoryonya, I can man wget for you, but other than that I would have no idea. [07:57] igoryonya: imo wget url -O file [07:57] igoryonya, i download with the original name [07:57] igoryonya: it was -o -O or -0 [07:58] ok i got it one sec [07:59] http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/195.36.15/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-195.36.15-pkg2.run [07:59] or i can send it to you shazbotmcnasty [08:00] i have 5 hard drives on my server pc...during install of Ubuntu server if i select LVM Will it use all of them or do i need to add them later? [08:00] . [08:00] !help [08:00] 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. :-) [08:01] iceroot: but -O = output document. It's outputting some kinds of documents, kind of confusing statement. is it the same as saving the url to a different file name. When I read this option "output document", I was thinking that it will download some kinds of documents from the downloaded page. [08:01] shazbotmcnasty, you get it [08:01] is 1440×900 resolution screen on a notebook detected automatically on 9.10/10.04? [08:01] no idea [08:01] igoryonya: its downloading a file an using the filename you gave with -O filename [08:01] igoryonya: its what you want [08:02] iceroot: ok, thanx [08:02] nomnex: yes [08:02] hiexpo: yes [08:02] kool [08:02] iceroot, thanks! [08:03] who else needs help? [08:03] i do [08:03] !lvm | MikeyPooh [08:03] MikeyPooh: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [08:04] ty [08:04] MikeyPooh: the 2. link [08:04] is LVM Similar to DE? [08:04] MikeyPooh: DE? [08:04] DE = Drive Extender [08:04] i have had question for awhile that i've wondered about what is the difference between say 8.04 and 9.04? [08:04] MikeyPooh: i dont know, sorry [08:05] I've abandoned firefox to get rid of my facebook video problem and the same thing started to happen in chromium :S [08:05] i mean does LVM put all the drives in a drive pool? [08:05] cdoublejj: 8.04 is LTS, 9.04 is a normal release, ubuntu releses every 6 month a new version [08:05] cdoublejj, 10 [08:05] !lts | cdoublejj [08:05] cdoublejj: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [08:05] cdoublejj, 10.04 comes out at the end of the month and will also be an LTS [08:06] but you can try the beta [08:06] hey guys.. anyone else have any feelings, Deluge vs Transmission for torrent clients [08:06] i like transmission [08:06] cdoublejj: and the ubuntu-versions mean YEAR.MONTH, so 8.04 was release 200(8.04) [08:06] I have it running on my home theater media server.. (MythTV) [08:06] wait i put xubuntu 9.04 on a laptop for my bro and i don't want to upgrade it's only 700mhz [08:06] cdoublejj, the ram matters more [08:07] how much? [08:07] I just configured it all to run Deluge however, I wonder what the system usage difference is between transimission and deluge [08:07] cdoublejj: you dont eed to upgrade, never touch a running system [08:07] if I would like to download 9.04 alternate addition, is there a place/torrent that I can use? (I cant see it listed on ubuntu.com/getubuntu) [08:07] there is no technical difference just numbers why even put out different version if it is exactly the same [08:07] 700mhz 384mb MAX 20gb hdd [08:07] !torrents | knoppies [08:07] knoppies: Karmic can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). [08:07] cdoublejj, it's not the same, it's updated, newer kernel and apps [08:08] How can i force updates that are being held back to be installed? [08:08] thanks iceroot [08:08] so 8.0 or 7.0 wouldn't run any faster? [08:08] knoppies: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ [08:08] !jaunty [08:08] Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) was the tenth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ - Release Notes: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 [08:08] i mean 6.4 and 7.4 [08:08] thanks Kartagis [08:08] cdoublejj: not always [08:08] cdoublejj, get the newest one, with a lightweight WM [08:09] i see [08:09] I helped without even knowing :D [08:09] cdoublejj: try xubuntu 9.10 [08:09] !hacker [08:09] A hacker is a person who delights in having an intimate understanding of the internal workings of a system, computers and computer networks in particular, as defined by Request for Comments (RFC) 1392 - i.e. a good programmer -- crackers on the other hand break systems, see also !piracy [08:09] Kartagis: :) [08:09] i find xubuntu bloated [08:09] does changing the WM break anything or is it easy to do? [08:09] can anyone tell me a package for notwork traffic auditing? with web based interface perhaps...tools I've tried vnstat,iftop and iptraf [08:09] 9.10 is faster? [08:09] cdoublejj: you can easily install a new desktop environment [08:09] cdoublejj, try crunchbang maybe [08:10] rags, Im not sure if its what you looking for, but you could have a look at wireshark. [08:10] and why doesn't the toshiba 2805 s202 have aworking floppy drive driver yet? [08:10] i think the gfx driver robs performance too [08:10] rags: vnstat [08:10] crunchbang would help speed things up? [08:11] knoppies: no..not sniffing packets....just a history of data transferred, by which system and the rate history...like how you have on a tomato router...I really like their graphs [08:11] rags, Im not sure what your talking about, but it sounds like I would like that too. Maybe I should be taking notes. [08:11] cdoublejj, yes, but the speediest will be when you'll make a minimal system yourself, that requires some knowledge [08:11] iceroot: Vnstat gives good totals, I love that tool but I was looking for a more comprehensive report...Like how much data tx per IP [08:12] that text only!!! [08:12] rags: ifconfig [08:12] rags: sorry dont know other tools than ifconfig and vnstat [08:12] cdoublejj, no, dude, not necessarely, i have a debian testing with fluxbox, it's very fast [08:12] is there any way to request the devs make drivers for certain hardware or list to add for unsupported hardware? [08:12] i ahve heard of fluxbox [08:12] knoppies: Vnstat and iftop are pretty good....but I was looking for a comprehensive package... [08:13] rags look at nethop, netstat -catnup, and maybe even ntop [08:13] iceroot: Thx, anyway... [08:13] cdoublejj, i use it on a p III 1 GHz with 128 MB RAM [08:14] you have speed advantage [08:14] ram dissadvantage [08:14] i'm looking at the flux box here [08:14] :) [08:14] CQ: will look at nethop....I've tried ntop and it is close to what I need...but faced lot of issues with it... [08:14] this will fix mostly everything sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [08:14] rags, on just your machine, or the whole network? because if its just your machine then conky can do some basic graphs. [08:15] would i need to minimal install with flux box or would just switching gnome to fluxbox help too? [08:15] guys, does anybody here have problem playing facebook videos to the full length under firefox? [08:15] Kartagis: no [08:15] I'm trying to use iptables to forward a connection to an internal FTP server and found http://www.experts-exchange.com/Security/Operating_Systems_Security/Linux/Q_23452219.html with PREROUTING and INPUT rules, and don't understand what the diff is or why I need both... can someone please explain? The manual and HOWTOs I've found don't answer my question... [08:15] morning all [08:15] cdoublejj, you might try antix too [08:15] it's good [08:16] knoppies: It is for the n/w....but since I'll be running the app on the gateway, I suppose it will be local to the app...I'll try conky... [08:16] rags if conky is close to what you need, look at gkrellm as well [08:17] iceroot, it's strange, I can never watch fb videos to the full length under ff. I've stopped using it just to get rid of it, and the same thing started happening in chromium :S [08:17] antix is a whole os [08:17] this is for my brother who isn't as tech savy as me [08:17] for office work [08:17] cdoublejj, yes it is [08:18] CQ: Thx will try it out....on the Iptables rules...the prerouting rule is required on the external gateway while the INPUT rules on your ftp server... [08:18] cdoublejj, does he need openoffice? [08:19] cdoublejj, you can try xubuntu, crunchbang, antix [08:19] iceroot, do you have an idea about that? [08:19] CQ: Basically..you forward the port to your ftp server and then on the ftp server you allow ftp connections... [08:19] Kartagis: sorry, no [08:19] could i get fluxbox in the package manager would it be smart enough to disable gnome after install? [08:19] CQ: Also make sure you have connection tracking in place.... [08:19] rags: why doesn't the FTP server implicitly allow the FTP connection? currently it should, as I can ftp to it from the internal network already... [08:20] rags: connection tracking? how? [08:20] it is now running xubuntu 9.04 [08:20] is anyone getting the 500 internal server error trying to watch a video on youtube? [08:20] it works it does lag bad but, has some lag [08:20] CQ: Then you don't need the rule...as long you have forwarded the port it will work... [08:20] open office ro crossover office [08:20] cdoublejj: do you need to save space or CPU? [08:20] does crossover office require a valid copy of ms office? [08:20] cdoublejj, install just one WM [08:21] i need the front end to be snappyer [08:21] cdoublejj, why not openoffice? [08:21] how do i make it disable gnome and switch to flux box> [08:21] cdoublejj: I have a very snappy front end, I just installed a debian box with command line only ;) [08:21] well there are multiple employees some use open offcie [08:22] my brother has win 7 with ms office as a main [08:22] cdoublejj, from the gdm, you can select whatever you want [08:22] CQ: wht does this say : "lsmod | grep nf_conntrack_ftp" [08:22] open doesn't like ms some times it twist up the the documents some time the come out a little wonky [08:22] cdoublejj, on a weak pc it doesn't make sense to use ms office through crossover [08:22] it's nothing major i'll probably stick with open [08:22] cdoublejj, not to mention its slow. [08:23] rags: right now nothing [08:23] is anyone getting the 500 internal server error trying to watch a youtube video [08:23] cdoublejj, tell them to use more PDF's [08:23] whats gdm stand for i have seen the term when i was browsing for themes once [08:23] cdoublejj, it's where you log in [08:23] lol pdfs [08:23] user, password [08:24] and background [08:24] okay so the gdm has controls to switch to fluxbox? [08:24] cdoublejj, GDM is the Gnome Desktop Manager (I think [08:24] CQ: hmm...Then I'm afraid you don't have the connection tracking module...not sure how to enable it.. [08:24] or i should just do more googleing [08:24] on fluxbox install [08:24] you can get a gdm2setup for 9.10 [08:25] wait xubnunt uses that xface windows manager [08:25] or xfce [08:25] yes [08:25] cdoublejj, No, your right, the new window manager will show up in gdm [08:25] sounds like flux box would speed it up [08:25] just not as pretty [08:25] cdoublejj, the apps matter too [08:26] what do you mean? [08:26] i mean abiword instead of open office [08:26] rags nils@blackbox:~/installation$ sudo modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp [08:26] you know i almost thought gnome was faster that last time i put ubuntu on one of these old laptops thought i did have really nice hdd in it too [08:26] this kind of stuff [08:27] maybe midori instead of firefox [08:27] i can give you a list of lightweight apps [08:27] can you clone a 20gb drive with xubuntu on a bigger drive and have it use the res of the space? or does it require manual partitioning i know how to that for the most part. [08:27] CQ: and...did it work? [08:28] open office does excell and power point etc that is needed [08:28] he can use abi for regular work [08:28] tcpdump -ippp0 -l -w- -n -s0 tcp | grep -a -o -E "Host\: .*|GET \/.*" >> /tmp/file [08:28] rags yup ... do I need more rules though? http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-do-i-use-iptables-connection-tracking-feature.html seems to say that to use all teh FTP features in a NAT you need more than just teh one forwarding rule to get the related passive connections etc. [08:28] can anyone tell me why this will not save to /tmp/file? is it the lack of an EOF? [08:29] ab: you might need sudo to write to that file [08:30] can someone please help me [08:30] cdoublejj, if you have xubuntu, you have xdm, not gdm, i don't know if it supports multiple WM's [08:30] CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME [08:30] changing WM's [08:30] ab should be OK... does it give you an error or is the file empty? What does it do with one > ? else try | cat - >> /tmp/file [08:30] I am getting a new mobo and cpu tommorrow was wondering if i will need to reinstall ubuntu or if it will convert settings automagicly [08:31] CQ: empty. [08:31] i don't multi WMs [08:31] lajosward, the same HDD? [08:31] just one fast one [08:31] yes same hdd [08:31] what does it output without the >> ? [08:31] lajosward, it should work [08:31] i'm sure there is guide to replacing xfce wit fluxbox [08:31] thanks [08:31] Does someone know if the Criten server is down ? [08:31] alguien que hable espanol? [08:31] necesito ayuda [08:31] con mi eclipse [08:31] cdoublejj, be careful [08:31] help! [08:31] CQ: I'm not sure on this one...I suggest you try active/passive first...and passive doesn't work then add the rules... [08:31] franklin #ubuntu-es [08:31] pero nadie responde [08:31] CQ: same with single >. i'll try cat - . [08:31] this will fix mostly everything sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [08:32] ab does it give you any output at all without piping at all? [08:32] this is why i like linux it has acceptable app compatibility/alternatives and it's a nice break away from the norm and it's fun to tinker on [08:33] cdoublejj, thats only the start, there is so much more to linux than anything else. Not to mention you can do more (often quicker). And the personalization is mind blowing. [08:33] is replacing the wm some dangerous? [08:33] cdoublejj, if I was you, I would simply sudo apt-get purge xubuntu-desktop [08:33] :) [08:33] cdoublejj, I wouldnt know. [08:33] cdoublejj: no. worst case you end up with a command line and have to use that to reinstall a WM [08:34] and sudo apt-get install fluxbox [08:34] CQ: just tried cat - . nothing. it does give output to stdout. but redirecting to a file is not happening. [08:34] Personaly i game so there is no alternative to windows, i have seen guides to setup gaming rigs with linux but wine doesn't support vista/7only software like halo 2 [08:34] but, [08:34] since i have multiple computers it'sn ice to have flavor like 98se and ubuntu [08:34] ab does it give the output to stdout when you add the pipe? if so, it's outputting to STDERR not STDOUT [08:35] plus on the older laptops like toshiba 2800 series ubuntu and xubuntu is great cause it is faster than win xp + anti virus [08:35] ab else remove teh file, or check it has 660 privileges etc. === JimmyJ is now known as JimmyJ|zz [08:36] hahahaha cool icewm on puppy [08:36] http://dotpups.de/dotpups/WindowManagers/Icewm-Theme-VistaBlackIV-MU.jpg [08:37] CQ: no output when piped through cat - . the tcpdump manpage says -w - writes to stdout. and i believe it does. the perms on the file are good. there is somehting else going on. [08:38] cdoublejj, you can customize your WM however you want [08:38] ab make the privs 777 or try sudo [08:39] ab or try it wirh tee (man tee) [08:39] CQ: tried both. no change. [08:40] ab does echo test >> /tmp/file work then? [08:40] ab then try echo test | tee /tmp/file [08:41] CQ: tried | tee -a /tmp/file. nothing. [08:41] cdoublejj, this is mine, with fluxbox http://s881.photobucket.com/albums/ac19/x36t1/linux/?action=view¤t=5.jpg [08:41] DUDE! [08:41] CQ: the file is writable. [08:41] does that come in diffrent colors? [08:42] inexistant where did you get that theme? [08:42] it looks decent [08:42] ab sorry, I can't help more than that... only other thing I can think of is that it's buffered before flushing to the file or something if you see output without the pipe and not with and nothing in the file, but even then after a while something should be in the file === kevdog_ is now known as kevdog [08:43] cdoublejj, from box-look.org [08:43] Oo [08:43] OohhHH [08:44] who can tell me, how to update ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04? [08:44] CQ: yep. i thougt about buffering but the -l switch is supposed to address that. i think it's maybe the lack of an EOF. the stdout never gets closed. [08:44] !upgrade | wanghong [08:44] wanghong: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [08:45] thanks [08:50] Im using pidgin on 9.10, with the yahoo protocol, if My message is longer than about 45 characters, it gives me the error message: "Unable to send message: The message is too large." How would I fix that (I tried adding him to my MSN protocol, but it kept bugging out), his address is rather long. [08:51] all other protocols seem to work fine. [08:53] hi guys..i put the netbook remix on an acer revo 3600 for htpc purposes [08:53] KNetworkmanager won't work for me so I installed WICD, it let me surf WiFi but just like KNetworkManager, I can connect to WiFi but not browse the internet. What do I do? [08:53] however the netbook launcher process is running at 100% usage all the time [08:54] i've tried doing the dpkg-reconfigure on xorg however it hasnt fixed it.. [08:55] techitch: I thought the unr was set up with a limited h/ware scope in mind [08:55] KNetworkmanager won't work for me so I installed WICD, it let me surf WiFi but just like KNetworkManager, I can connect to WiFi but not browse the internet. What do I do? [08:55] so u think i need to put the full ver on there? [08:56] anyone? :( [08:57] techitch: I am not sure about it - that's what I would check first [08:57] Cheese has very low FPS when recording on a Logitech C250 WebCam. I can't quite figure it out [08:57] also, someone in here told me some command now on each reboot I get the nameservers I gave in my /etc/resolv.conf...how do I get rid of them? [08:58] well the revo is essentially a nettop [08:58] it has support for the nvidia ion gpu [08:59] techitch: are you running the ion? [09:00] I need help, bad :( [09:00] well the ion driver is installed and working.. === am4zin is now known as amazin [09:01] techitch: k - read the Xorg log? [09:02] whisky_, do torrents work? messenger? [09:02] wget? [09:02] anything? [09:02] theres no errors in the xorg log [09:02] ping? [09:02] inexistent, Nothing at all! [09:02] wget for downloading [09:02] whisky_, tried to ping a site? [09:02] any one tel me java best channel [09:03] is amarok faster than rythm box [09:03] i'm looking at vlc [09:03] inexistent, Yes. Nothing :( [09:03] techitch: I'll have a google [09:03] some one was saying it is pretty light on a forum [09:03] I have been reading online..and gotten curious. [09:03] theres a bit in google about it..it looks like a known bug [09:03] whisky_, do other laptops connected to the wireless work fine? [09:04] possibly an error with xorg config [09:04] How come Ubuntu seems to be buggy with a stable release, when there are paid employees at canonical, and a huge community of users?? [09:04] cdoublejj, don't use apps that depend on a DE [09:04] inexistent, Yes. It works fine on this laptop too (Windows dual boot) [09:04] cdoublejj, no amarok, no rhythmbox [09:04] Is there a lack of testers/debuggers?? === cento is now known as ignorante [09:05] xiven, I'm a newbie to Linux and Google tells me 9.1 isn't as good as previous releases. [09:05] DE? [09:05] cdoublejj, try audacious, sonata, songbird [09:06] de desktop environment [09:06] Well honestly...I've not found Ubuntu's usability to have improved much in the last 4 versions or so... [09:06] whisky_: it's 9.10 (year.month, 2009.october) [09:06] well rythem box comes stock but, as i was saying vlc looks like a great replacement [09:06] But it has gotten a lot of newer features and stuff which haven't been garbage. [09:06] ardchoille, Oh! Thank you! [09:07] yw [09:07] anytime some one goes on about winamp being better than WMP just becasue i like wmp, i'm all like VLC now stfu j/k but thats how good vlc must be from what i have read [09:07] How do I get rid of nameservers that come to my /etc/resolv.conf automatically everytime I reboot? Someone in here told me to put them and now they come automatically. [09:07] you can re sync audio on thefly [09:07] whisky_: fwiw, I have had no problems with 9.10 [09:07] whisky_: No, 9.10 is better than all other releases, but it has a few issues, like the Network Manager ppp problem (use Gnome-ppp), Login Screen is more or less foxed etc [09:07] hello any one tell me best java channel [09:07] Can someone help me with this: if [ $USER = root ] ; then stuff ; else echo "You need root priveleges". Does this look correct? [09:07] Ubuntu may not be the best distro for me anyhow, as even though I like open source...I am planning to start writing proprietary/commercial software for linux. [09:08] xiven, and why do you think that ? [09:08] cdoublejj, mplayer is lighter than VLC [09:08] rocket16, I just can't get WiFi to work. It shows my network, connects but there's no connectivity [09:09] techitch: where did you get the xorg.conf? [09:09] xiven: Using FOSS does not prevent you from writing proprietary soft [09:09] is mplayer as feature packed as vlc> [09:09] Well, for one...Ubuntu is very source based [09:09] xiven, just as much as any other linux distro [09:09] whisky_, yes, check-out this http://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=2&ved=0CBQQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.unixnewbie.org%2Fhow-to-setup-wireless-with-ubuntu-9-10%2F&rct=j&q=Ubuntu+9.10+wifi+problem&ei=q5q5S8DLK9CwrAfo7JzECg&usg=AFQjCNHqv-sxqojOBsLIfGUivbAFHtwTgQ [09:09] cdoublejj, no [09:09] but it works [09:09] :) [09:09] Fedora for example is RPM based....binary... [09:09] Except those closed-source idiocies as Linux XP [09:09] whisky_, I this link, the setup of Wifi is there [09:09] you are not forced to publish your work under an opensource license [09:09] xiven: Uh, Ubuntu is .deb based, those are also binary packages [09:10] whisky_, * In [09:10] xiven, ubuntu is not source based, is .deb based, which is equivalent to .rpm [09:10] hhmm still thanks for heads up mplayer is another consideration [09:10] rocket16, Ugh...I'm connected to the WiFi network. [09:10] Well in the days of Breezy Badger it as all over that Ubuntu was a source based distro [09:10] how to join for java channel [09:10] whisky_, Then? What is the problem? "No connectivity", sorry, can you explain? [09:11] neoraj> ##java [09:11] xiven, ubuntu was never a source based distro, it is based on Debian wich uses .deb as far as I know it [09:11] whisky_, try sudo dhclient3 [09:11] Hmm [09:11] .debs are usually built from source, just as .rpms are [09:11] Well, good..because I like Ubuntu lol [09:11] xiven: joaopinto Tells the truth. [09:11] what about .apt's? [09:11] costre: Eh? No such file extension even. [09:12] APT installed .deb packages.. [09:12] costre: APT is Advanced Package Tool, that thing which is used for repositories [09:12] !bluetooth [09:12] For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup [09:12] apr installed .deb packages are regular binary .deb packages [09:12] rocket16, I can't browse the internet. I've played with DNS too, nothing. [09:12] apt [09:13] theadmin, aah, I remembered seeing it on adobe's site .... there was .rpm, .deb, and APT :) [09:13] not .apt [09:13] Ok, bluetooth was working fine: installed wifi drivers: bluetooth doesn't work, not does ubuntu identify the built in bluetooth device. Any ideas? [09:14] not = nor [09:14] is DE codecs? [09:14] hmm i think my issue maybe to do with xorg.conf setup [09:14] whisky_, Sorry, I am afraid, I cannot help much here, since I use Photon Plus connections, not WiFi, :( [09:14] theres hardly anything in there [09:14] is there a way to recursively change the chmod of files only? [09:14] Well, I am going to kind of mix open source with proprietary..meaning, I will not open the source up to a million downloads an hour...however, I will let other developers join if they would like. And, if developers create a true derivative or seperate software from mine, they may release it as their own...even if it means completely open source [09:14] whisky_, what kind of wifi card do you have? [09:14] schone: find directory -exec chmod 777 {} \; - something like that [09:14] techitch: try Xorg -configure and read the file to see if it is better [09:14] schone: Oops [09:15] schone: Hm, won't "chmod +x *.*" work? [09:15] schone: find directory -type f -exec chmod 777 {} \; [09:15] rocket16, No problem :) [09:15] I don't want someone changing the interface to a program I made, and giving it away soon after I release it. If I wasn't concerned about that, I might even release software completely open. [09:15] whisky_, Thanks, :) [09:15] theadmin: that doesn't seem to work [09:15] inexistent, Intel 3945. I've installed Windows drivers using ndiswrapper [09:16] schone: Well, technically it should but replace 777 with permission set you need [09:16] whisky_, doesn't it work natively? [09:16] what is karmic koala [09:17] schone: For instance, this will make all files (not folders) in /var/www accessible by owner only: find /var/www -type f -exec chmod 700 {} \; [09:17] inexistent, I was having trouble with it [09:17] theadmin: yer im actually on busybox not ubuntu but though the same command would work [09:17] neoraj: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10 === JokerAway is now known as Joker_-_ [09:17] whisky_, did you try sudo dhclient3?

Please help [09:26] hi i am new to linux and ubuntu and i am trying to install a printer driver can someone help me [09:26] xiven: I've been designing gnome themes for years and never seen anyone selling them [09:26] xiven: is that a question as in "you wanna buy one" ? [09:26] it happens in epiphany as also in firefox [09:26] I was merely curious [09:27] xiven: never eard of it [09:27] I believe I've seen KDE themes for sale before..and I know there is a group selling KDE applications.

[09:30] clifford, try here http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/index.html [09:30] Why do people use all this software within firefox... [09:31] :) chatzilla [09:31] I'm wondering if Ubuntu is backwards compatible with previous version apps [09:32] It makes Firefox use up a lot more memory. And, from my observations, its more memory then what would be used by a regular application. [09:32] yep [09:32] true [09:32] inexistent, yes ive been there and followed instructions but i get the error 'dpkg: operation requires read/write access to dpkg status area' [09:32] i used meebo and it used way more memory than bitlbee, for example [09:32] I like Firefox, but its easy to turn it into a memory hog..and it does like to freeze for 3 seconds, to five minutes more then preferrable. [09:33] The GNOME Panel keeps blocking my COMPIZ edge bindings! [09:33] anyone know a fix? known bug? [09:33] * XuMuK says Hi there [09:33] odd [09:33] clifford, you should use sudo dpkg .... [09:33] i just turned on compiz and now the usage has gone down [09:33] obviously forced it to use hw somehow === ShaGwa is now known as No14Day [09:34] ok if someone answered my backwards compatabilty question i got disconnected [09:34] !nick > No14Day [09:34] No14Day, please see my private message [09:34] inexistent, brand new to linux could you be a little more specific [09:35] Maybe I have too much windows in me still, heh. I'd like to start fixing bugs and/or improving/creating software...but I need to have my time profitable as well. [09:35] *XuMuK, hey [09:35] clifford, well, if you downloaded the driver, and it is .deb, you should "sudo dpkg -i /path/to/driver.deb" [09:36] got that [09:36] I don't think donations would pay for my time well enough to use that method... [09:37] clifford, 'sudo gdebi package-name.deb' works as well [09:37] clifford, look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/BrotherPrinters/2070NLaser [09:38] clifford, i like hp printers, they are usually supported out of the box [09:38] guys, i am missing in my menu the add/remove software button. how can i install it there again? i forgoten [09:39] hi guys, I cant figure out how to put a picture at the bottom of a compiz 3d cube using ccsm. anyone knows how to do this?

The UI was very unresponsive for 15 minutes too, that I think was new [10:03] hello here [10:04] AAA_awright, trackerd is the tracker indexing daemon. If you just installed your system, just installed tracker on your ssystem or just added a whole lot of files, it will need to inspect a lot of files [10:04] nasty sideeffect is high cpu and io usage [10:04] No kidding [10:04] Once it's done indexing, that goes away [10:04] my wireless card is in the list of supported cards but is not working.

As in copying the ttf files to a folder .fonts (dot-fonts) in your own home folder (create it if isn't there) and run fc-cache -f :3 [11:39] for ubuntu [11:39] paul why not run the software natively? [11:40] daniturn whats the chipset model? [11:40] JEEBcz : create the .fonts folder in the wine root? [11:40] paul3333, nah -- the fonts become available usually when you have them installed in the system [11:41] so it's your /home/username/ folder :3 [11:41] atheros AR5007EG wireless network adaptor [11:41] just installed 10.4 beta 1 with wubi, but it hands on a black screen with a cursor on left after reboot. known bug?

[12:00] add that line to the ~/.bashrc [12:00] yes [12:00] its like [12:00] erUSUL thanks, I see a gvfs-fuse-daemon entry, I guess thats it.. [12:00] quarkup: cool [12:00] dani its not too hard to pick up terminal slang if you see terminal stuff daily [12:00] search the directories 1 by 1 i think [12:00] it will not start in the current folder i guess [12:00] jdv: the it is in ~/.gvfs/ (if you want t reach it by terminal) [12:01] it checks files and folders by the lexical order (a-z) [12:01] afaik [12:01] When I tell this to gtkpod it says can;t create the directory structure in there, and if I run gtkpod as root it wont let me do anything at all (like its broken) [12:02] anyway, i use both the search (which is an alias to grep * -s -e) and rsearch wich is the same but with the -r flag for recursiveness [12:02] back soon, logging into ubuntu [12:02] quarkup: the alt would be to make a lil bash from : find ./ -name *string* [12:02] oh wait [12:03] sorry [12:03] i misunderstood you [12:03] erUSUL Ah! It needs to be ~/.gvfs/"name of iphone"/ although now I get import database failed lol [12:03] search and rsearch will check what is inside of files [12:03] but you can do [12:03] find . | grep -e [12:03] jdv: not familiar with iphones/ipods sorry [12:03] !ipod [12:03] For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [12:03] erUSUL thanks for your help though. [12:04] Yea, followed that all to the letter :/ [12:04] that is pretty much the same you want by using the find ./ -name *string* and with regexp (grep uses reg expressions) [12:04] Any have a hint on why Office 2007 installer in wine don't do any progress. Have installed components from winetricks shell script. [12:05] alias ds='find . | grep -s -e ' [12:05] seams like it loops and outputs "fixme:xrender:X11DRV_AlphaBlend not a dibsection" [12:05] brontosaurusrex: use this definition above, it will use regexp and do exactly the same as find [12:05] artanis^: #winehq may be better place to ask [12:05] !wine [12:05] WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [12:06] quarkup: let me try [12:06] #ubuntu-fr-jeux === sick0 is now known as Guest70178 [12:06] #ubuntu-fr-jeux [12:06] Hm, one thing I found is that, with Wine Installed, any .exe file can be run with "./filename.exe" command, if it runs in wine. IS there any major advantage in doing it?

[12:07] Thank [12:07] brontosaurusrex: well you can also change the color of the string found [12:07] erUSUL - FYI, for some reason, allowing gtpod to get at least that far, now allows rhytmbox to use and see the iphone :/ I guess, gtkpod created the dir structure which is good enough for rthmybox so it seems to be working [12:08] !yay [12:08] Glad you made it! :-) [12:08] !kernel [12:08] The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [12:08] just add to the ~/.bashrc the following: export GREP_COLOR="1;32" [12:08] that is an example [12:09] check colors in bash here:: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO/x329.html === arvind_k is now known as arvind_khadri [12:09] This Firefox is really taking a lot of memory, :( [12:10] quarkup: any way to ignore case as well?

[12:11] brontosaurusrex: its the -i flag or --ignore-case , but you should check the grep manpage :: man grep [12:11] use the / [12:11] to search [12:11] Can .exe files be converted to Ubuntu binaries? [12:11] like /ignore [12:11] rocket16: not generally, no [12:11] rocket16: no [12:12] quarkup: ok, checking man [12:12] rocket16: you can use wine to run some windows executables though.. or virtualbox.. [12:12] unless you can successfully decompile those .exe (windows) binaries and then compile them in linux. [12:12] and you will need to change some stuff [12:12] quarkup, Slart Ok, I am using Wine, and surprisingly it can run .exes with "./a.exe" command, [12:12] i guess nobody did that [12:13] rocket16: its not native [12:13] you are using a layer [12:13] its "wine" [12:13] quarkup, Yes, that's right, [12:13] if you do sudo aptitude remove wine [12:13] rocket16: that doesn't make it a ubuntu binary.. it just means you're running it through wine [12:13] then you will not be able to do it [12:14] Slart, quarkup Yes, I know that. Just wanted to know, if this is faster to "wine a.exe" command, and wanted to find a procedure to make binaries from exex [12:14] rocket16: look at midori or chromium, i think opera is not a usefull browser [12:14] opera is great [12:14] Ahrak, Ok, but it is faster [12:14] opera is somehow as fast as chromium [12:15] I think, Opera might be faster to Firefox [12:15] rocket16: it's probably exactly the same.. wine someprogram.exe or ./someprogram.exe both end up being run through wine [12:15] buts very nice on the windows 7 [12:15] yup [12:15] Slart, Ok, [12:15] arora is also very fast [12:15] quarkup: ok, this seems to be working 'alias easyfind='find . | grep -i -s -e '' [12:15] I like chrome.. feels a bit snappier than my firefox.. although I suppose firefox without extensions might be faster as well [12:15] qrarkup, but is it fully supported in the web? Like Gmail etc.? [12:15] brontosaurusrex: well okay, check the manual if you need [12:16] gotta go [12:16] hi guys [12:16] Where can I learn tutorials for different server settings?

[12:24] anyone? [12:25] is there a way to access a protected directory by sudo without being the owner ? example : sudo cd /var/log/squid ? [12:26] Sudo su then cd /var/log/squid ? [12:26] hmm ok I'll try [12:26] That would put you as root. I think all the root directories are readonly unless oyu are root. [12:27] Craig_Dem, Am1ne: I think sudo -i is preferred over sudo su. I'm not really sure why, though [12:28] Am1ne: cd is a shell built in so that wont work [12:28] !rootshell | Am1ne Craig_Dem [12:28] Am1ne Craig_Dem: Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) [12:28] Craig_Dem, yes true ! but it doesn't work ! when I type : sudo su -c "cd /var/log/squid/".. it still in the same directory ! [12:28] Wow. I've been using sudo su since I started using linux. [12:28] Nothings broke yet [12:28] Nothing has* [12:30] why would you use 'sudo su'? isn't one or the other sufficient? [12:31] Can someone help me restoring my screen size? [12:31] Slart: Thanks. solved. [12:31] netech: sudo only runs the following command as root.. su gives you a root terminal [12:32] But you can't su without sudo :) [12:32] ah, that's an ubuntu "feature" [12:32] netech: some things are easier in a root terminal.. redirection for example.. things like "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" doesn't work with sudo.. since only "echo" is run as root.. not he redirection [12:33] Slart: that wasn't the question. but thanks for the extra clarification. [12:33] netech: just to signify the difference between sudo and su =) [12:33] hello [12:33] evening folks [12:33] I think it's time to brew some coffee [12:34] netech: sure, i will have some ;) [12:34] asian gambit --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVq0HdiM-Ok [12:34] I just has tea and french toast. nomnomnom [12:34] does someone use ssh to manipulate audio apps with an export of the DISPLAY ?

Thanks for your help [13:49] ikonia, what is backend? :S [13:49] moetunes, i think those options should be optimal and the analysis of that is lower level [13:49] is it possible to have a GUI on Linux Server? [13:49] LoveJoyDK: ok what backend are you using for your domain controllers data, eg: tdbs, ldap, etc [13:49] researcher11: sure is, install the package ubuntu-desktop and it's all there [13:50] HI everyone , I want to ask a question,I want to install the 10.04 beta 1 though wubi, but I can't find a suitable version. every version download metalink from a wrong place ,so the ISO I download from release.ubuntu.com/release/10.04/ubuntu-10.04-beta1-desktop-amd64.iso can't be distinguished. how can I do now ? [13:50] petermaple : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. [13:50] lacostej, go to a python channel [13:50] I installed samba, and edited smb.conf. So I think it uses ldap by default. [13:50] mkanyicy: it just means I'll have to do the build right... [13:50] ikonia:Thanks. but I have a CD image of ubuntu-desktop? How can it be used to have a GUI for server? [13:50] lacostej: Do you just want me to run the program and see if it crashes? [13:50] * blue112 is invisible [13:51] kwtm: yes. Press the button a few times. [13:51] moetunes, I think that care was taken by experts during compilation of vlc package for ubuntu [13:51] researcher11: no, you don't need a cd image - just install the package "ubuntu-desktop" from your ubuntu server install [13:51] kwtm: for me it crashes 80% of the time, when trying to update the status bar [13:51] ikonia< I have a test server running now. and have manage to get a winxp mashine running fine with shares and smbuser user [13:51] i want to make a shell script in which it will log onto a ssh session and when the server requests a password it will provide it, is this possible [13:51] LoveJoyDK: that's not what I asked [13:51] mkanyicy: they didn't set it with swscalar [13:51] LoveJoyDK: I asked what backend you are using in your samba/pdc configuration [13:51] moetunes, anyway you can tweak and tinker a bit [13:51] mkanyicy: I will go there as well. But nice to see if the problem is ubuntu related or not. [13:52] kwtm: and let me know what ubuntu version you are running., I am still on 09.10 [13:52] ikonia< is there a command I can run on my server to get it to ytell what you ask for? [13:52] LoveJoyDK: no, but if you've setup a PDC on ubuntu - you've set up a backend, re-read the guides you used and find out what it suggested [13:52] lacostej, you are using python and you did not specify a problem you are having, we dont know how secure it is to run you mysterious code [13:53] where's the terminal beep in 9.10? - I get no beep in xchat either [13:53] ll,l,l [13:53] prova [13:53] mkanyicy: come on, you can read the code, no ?the file is attached to launchpad, meaning that there's an issue. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/470598 Here it goes [13:53] moetunes: me niether [13:53] no not that one [13:53] mkanyicy: that one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wxwidgets2.8/+bug/555592 [13:54] lacostej, ok [13:54] lacostej, sorry, im more paranoid [13:54] Ok...

I'll try that first... *sigh* now it doesn't want to fully post again [14:50] linux sees those files as they are folders [14:50] .hglho [14:50] hello [14:50] but I have no clue about how to fix it :( === fran is now known as Guest80220 [14:51] does anyone else here have a sharp netwalker?

I can't shutdown via the panel menu anymore, just set my status. I can shutdown via terminal, I know, but how do I fix the menu? I mean the menu that drops down from your username [14:56] !grub2 [14:56] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [14:57] I have problem with empathy for the connection, tells me to enter the password to unlock the ring but does not enter as continually requesting the password, it seems an endless loop [14:57] is there a way to specify the kernel version on the ubuntu apt-get update? [14:57] haavaros, Isn't that the instant messenger-menu? [14:58] costre: Yes, but it also had the shutdown option before this happened [14:58] Does anybody know of an audio player that has decent support for the albumartist tag in its library? [14:58] Does anyone have a package for ejabberd 2.1.3 floating around somewhere? [14:58] I'm getting fed up of my compilations being spread all over the place... [14:59] jigap: Choose the linux-image(s) you want to install with synaptic, install them and remove the linux-image generic package.

[14:59] gah. Have to pay more for crossoffice then I did for my office 2007 enterprice. [15:00] i mean without doing it manually using cryptsetup and stuff [15:00] arvind_khadri: rhythmbox certainly doesn't... [15:00] costre: Nope, didn't work [15:00] jigap, Try truecrypt, I know it can handle a windows partition [15:00] and audacious doesn't have a library [15:01] erUSUL I'm reading through the stuff on clonezilla, my disks are different sizes, (dead one has a ton of unused space), can clonezilla manage that? [15:01] costre: it's a linux partition [15:01] jigap, I understood that :) [15:01] I mean I want everything except /boot [15:01] evening folks [15:01] oh ok [15:01] arvind_khadri: :) [15:02] is anyone here familiar with Trouble Ticketing? [15:02] what is the best framework for trouble ticketing to be chosen for a company? [15:02] if I upgrade to lucid and everything breaks - is there an "easy" way to revert? I don't feel like re-installing my whole system ;) [15:02] elisa87: rt is very common [15:02] elisa87: it's what canonical's sysadmins use, and its what we use where i work [15:03] gregg: no undo option :p [15:03] RT is a framework? better tham flySpy? [15:03] are they FOSS>? [15:03] geekphreak: now, that's not the answer I wanted... :p [15:03] gregg: format ;) [15:03] geekphreak: backup first, then format ;) [15:04] i need to install php5-dev however I'm getting this error: php5-dev: Conflicts: libtool (>= 2.2) but 2.2.6a-4 is to be installed how can this be resolved? [15:04] gregg: always :) [15:04] elisa87: rt is foss,yes. code's on github. http://bestpractical.com/rt/ [15:04] geekphreak: how's the beta looking? still a lot of broken stuff? [15:04] elisa87: ive never used flyspy, and when i google it i get airplane ticketing [15:04] g++ doesn't support shared libraries - what am I missing? [15:04] working great [15:07] FlySpray is a 'bug tracking system' intended for software development [15:07] crap me [15:07] hey [15:08] anyone here use pidgin? i can't change the font... [15:08] maco take look at this: http://www.software-pointers.com/en-defecttracking-tools.html [15:08] devian: whats the error? [15:08] my user automatic logs out while being in ubuntu 9.10, anyone knows about this bug? [15:08] geekphreak, there's no error, not that i see [15:09] elisa87: you said "spy" not "spray" before :P [15:09] geekphreak, i check the checkbox to enablel Pidgint GTK+ Theme Control [15:09] maco what about trac? [15:09] ok [15:09] sorry [15:09] ;D [15:09] geekphreak, then i enter the plugin configuration, and i choose a monospace font for "interface" and also for "conversation entry" [15:09] hi @ all [15:09] i have some problems with the iwlagn driver, i cannot connect to a AP. this is what dmesg tells me: http://pastebin.com/kMzmBBiG [15:09] i click both the save button and the "re-read gtkrc" [15:09] which one should i select for my company? [15:10] and try restarting pidgin [15:10] but no change [15:11] elisa87: if you want to check out existing uses of them (check out the interfaces and all), here's a project that uses trac: http://status.net/trac/report [15:11] elisa87: trac does more than just bug tracking, iirc. it has a wiki and things built in [15:11] maco all of them are trouble ticketing system? [15:12] in which case do you use these systems maco? [15:13] erUSUL you still here? [15:13] which one of these TT are mostly used by sysAdmins in companies? [15:13] devian: ok [15:13] elisa87: bugzilla and trac seem more commonly used for software bug reporting, whereas i see rt used for that and for things like "please setup a server so i can do my work" -- for example, bugzilla asks lots of questions useful for software issues, like "what version?" "steps to reproduce?" etc [15:13] Hello. i've the problem since this morning that when i start a multiplayer game in sauerbraten that ubuntu crashes. a singleplayer game would run perfectly. who can i solve this problem ? [15:13] geekphreak, i know this feature "works" because i've used it on both windows an linux before [15:13] aha ... it solves a problem steps by steps [15:13] geekphreak, i do know that on windows you must select something other than the "windows" GTK+ theme [15:13] which one is more userfriendly? [15:14] but on linux it should just work [15:14] hello. is there any documentation for header files like stdio.h which can be installed in ubuntu? [15:14] devian: do this man [15:14] just choose ur font, hit ok [15:14] dont hit re read [15:14] there is no OK button there's only write/read/close [15:15] can anybody help me ? [15:15] dnivra, sudo aptitude install build-essential [15:15] devian: just choose ur font for all 5/6 option , under font tag [15:15] hit close [15:15] !details | schweegi [15:15] schweegi: 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 ..." [15:15] elisa87: i think you might want to try logging into them and see how they work. you can see the canonical sysadmin's rt here: http://rt.ubuntu.com user: ubuntu password: ubuntu [15:16] arvind_khadri, package already installed. so how do I access the documentation then? [15:16] elisa87: i know you can report issues to rt through email. dont know if you can do that with the others [15:16] can someone tell me whats this i'm gettin every time I log onto my pidgin with my msn acc: [15:16] "(04:15:19 PM) frigg: Received CTCP 'VERSION' (to crofalcon) from frigg" ?? [15:16] geekphreak, did that, still no change [15:16] geekphreak, and there's only 4 options for me under the font tab [15:16] crofalcon: freenode bot [15:16] devian: did u enable both theme plugins? [15:17] what does that mean :/ === zbenjamin is now known as zbenjamin|away [15:17] this is becoming a pain for me: I can't permanantly change /et/resolv.conf. Every time I reboot, it reverts back to the old one. Anyone know how to get around this? [15:17] i've tell you that before... i used ubuntu karmic koala 9.10, and since this morning i can't start a multiplayer game in sauerbraten because ubuntu crashes. when i try to start a singleplayer game it works, but even not a multiplayer game [15:17] devian: theme editor and theme controller gtk? [15:17] geekphreak, you mean Pidgin GTK+ Theme Control and Pidgin Theme Editor? [15:17] nope, not yet [15:17] just did that [15:17] now re assign fonts === sine_ is now known as sine0 [15:17] then click close [15:18] can anyone help me with TS3 installation ?

[15:19] JesusFreak: 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. :-) [15:19] anivair: Or you can modify and uncomment the prepend domain-name-servers line in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf if you have a dynamic ip. [15:19] arvind_khadri, documentation for C header files. like this one I found http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/unistd.h.html. was wondering if Ubuntu had something that I could install. [15:19] JesusFreak, so ask jesus [15:19] devian: Please be nice. [15:19] !ask | JesusFreak [15:19] dnivra: manpages-dev [15:19] JesusFreak, the urgency of your problem does not impress anyone, everyone's time is valuable, you'll only annoy us if you say stuff like that [15:20] dnivra: header files are already on ur system, if u have the packages installed [15:20] !compile ? dnivra [15:20] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [15:20] !compile > dnivra [15:20] dnivra, please see my private message [15:20] acicula, that package is also installed.

So how do I get ubuntu off of startup? [15:20] geekphreak, he wants to read the documentations [15:20] dnivra: then you should hav the basic c library man pages i think [15:20] JesusFreak: edit boot.ini [15:21] where can I find that file? [15:21] arvind_khadri: lol, just open teh header files, see the code lol [15:21] geekphreak, I'm trying to write my own basic shell using system calls. so would be nice if could have a documentation like this http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/unistd.h.html. [15:21] hm, i see that i'm alone with that problem here. [15:21] anyone? TS3 question? :( [15:21] JesusFreak: hi [15:21] acicula, that package manpages-dev is already installed. [15:21] JesusFreak: it's a "hidden" file on your C:\ [15:21] i need some IM client for command line [15:21] JesusFreak: xp? [15:21] any sugestions? [15:21] netech : thank you [15:21] dnivra: type man unistd ? [15:21] or, run msconfig and edit it from there === bogdan is now known as trexyz [15:22] dnivra: ah i see nvm thats not in manpages-dev [15:22] dnivra: syscall=!c calls [15:22] hey i need some IM client for command line [15:22] can anyone please tell me what to do with the "TeamSpeak3-Client-linux_amd64-3.0.0-beta18.run" file that I downloaded from TS3? how to run/install it?

[15:23] s [15:23] geekphreak : yes [15:23] ? [15:23] acicula well I need to know more about system header files like that documentation in that link. I have a system calls list with me(though not so detailed; is that also available in man pages?) [15:24] dnivra: its in manpages-posix-dev [15:24] JesusFreak: so u just wana get rid of ubuntu entry right? [15:24] yes [15:24] i try to find a solution myself.. goodbye. [15:24] I'm setting an environment variable via export in my .bashrc, the variable doesn't appear to be set for 'application' launchers that use /bin/bash /path/to/cmd [15:24] geekphreak: yes [15:24] dnivra: you mean the systemcall numbering? [15:24] JesusFreak: can i pm as this question can come under windows [15:25] how do I partition 512bytes in gparted? [15:25] geekphreak: yes [15:25] acicula, system call numbering? what is that? [15:25] wow not one finished voice recog system exists for linux [15:26] now that's insulting [15:26] hi guys [15:26] DarkSector: make one [15:26] dnivra: the way you interact with systemcalls [15:26] how do I partition 512bytes in gparted? [15:26] is it possible to use my .bashrc when I launch programs from the menu, or is there a different rc? [15:26] geekphreak: trying one on matlab...but its too much of an hassle, thinking one on ocatave [15:26] is by setting registers and calling int80, on linux kernels anyway, syscalls are identified by their numbers [15:27] odinsbane, which variable ? [15:27] geekphreak, ok well apparently the GTK+ Theme Control plugin is broken on ubuntu, but i can use the preferences -> conversation panel to change my conversation area font [15:27] $LD_LIBRARY_PATH [15:27] I'm getting checking whether the g++ linker (ld) supports shared libraries... no error rebuilding vlc - what am I missing? [15:27] I've got a serious problem... i've updated my ubuntu netbook remix installation with his updates and now my interface doesn't load. only the top bar is loaded... [15:27] geekphreak, which is actually what i really wanted, i don't actually wanna change the GTK+ theme font, i like it the way it is, just the conversation fonts, so that works fine [15:27] someone should file a bug for that though [15:27] acicula, well I'm basically trying to implement a shell. i search and find the syntax and all the constants and things like that about system calls. is there some documentation on the various system calls with the syntax and things like that. I have a few like stat(2). but is there more? [15:28] cuz the GTK+ theme control def doesn't work/is broken [15:28] acicula, what does manpages-posix-dev install? [15:28] dnivra: can you explain the difference between a library call and a syscall? [15:29] I've got a serious problem... i've updated my ubuntu netbook remix installation with his updates and now my interface doesn't load. only the top bar is loaded... [15:29] dnivra: man syscalls for a list man 2 for specifics [15:29] acicula, not a library call, library files: the header files such as stdio.h, unistd.h etc that is. [15:29] Vince, we heard you the first time [15:29] moetunes, have you installed build-essential ? [15:29] If I want to chainload ubuntu's grub from another bootloader, how should I install ubuntu in order to do that? Or would I need to manually install grub on the partition instead of the MBR after ubuntu is installed? [15:30] arvind_khadri: that's how I got g++ === zz_Darky is now known as Darky [15:31] hey [15:31] im looking for a ppa that contains evolution 2.30 [15:31] dnivra: yeah those headers are part of the c library [15:32] dnivra: if you want to know what those do type man stdio for a list [15:32] somebody who can help me ? [15:32] acicula, why don't I have one for unistd? any idea? [15:33] dnivra: as i said its in a different man package, dunno why, manpages-posix-dev is what its called [15:33] moetunes, run ldconfig once [15:33] acicula, I also want to see documentation for header files like unistd.h, sys/types.h etc. if those are a part of manpages-posix-dev, no luck I can't view them.(is sys/types.h also a part of that package?) [15:33] dnivra: ever though about actually getting a book? [15:34] ubuntu forgot my one account has sudo priviledges? I'm getting "no sudoer access" errrors. How do I fix this? [15:34] seyfarth: chk the group settings [15:34] buona giornata a tutti === kevdog_ is now known as kevdog [15:35] dnivra: man packages just install man pages [15:35] !it | aless33 [15:35] aless33: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese.

[15:35] arvind_khadri: did that - no fix that way :( === zbenjamin is now known as zbenjamin|away [15:35] grazie [15:35] geekphreak, I just want to read documentation and do it. thing is all books contain the solution mostly and I don't want to copy straight the programs: no much documentation on those headers like that link. think I'll settle for man syscalls. @acicula thanks for that. thanks to geekphreak and arvind_khadri too! [15:35] geekphreak: what group am I looking to be in? looks like this might be the issue [15:36] anyone? [15:36] seyfarth: Unless you modified /etc/sudoers, you need to be in the 'admin' group to use sudo [15:36] dnivra: if you look in types you see it says it defines the types according to the posix2.6 standard, the header itself is part of libc(/any standard c library?) [15:36] where did my TS3 just go ? did "chmod -x /home/facon/Downloads/TeamSpeak3-Client-linux_amd64-3.0.0-beta18.run" and then just "sudo /home/facon/Downloads/TeamSpeak3-Client-linux_amd64-3.0.0-beta18.run" .. seems to have finished installing it, but isn't showing anywhere [15:37] acicula, yes it is a part of glibc. hmm so glibc documentation eh? [15:37] dnivra: what are you trying to program exactly, you dont write a shell aka like bash in syscalls [15:37] Pici: so if I have only one account that isn't, there isn't much I can do? [15:37] hola [15:37] dnivra: yes and no [15:37] seyfarth: admin [15:37] como como como [15:37] puta [15:37] dnivra: its a posix standard, which the library uses [15:37] seyfarth: sudo visudo :) [15:37] seyfarth: You can boot into recovery mode and then run: adduser youruser admin [15:38] quiero pollaaaaaaaaaaas [15:38] hi all [15:38] seyfarth: you can change setting there, good luck [15:38] does anyone have experience in this stting up my dual boot before was a bit of a pain. [15:38] acicula, well we've to implement shell programs such as ls, cp etc using system calls and finally integrate them into a single program that provides basic shell functionality. [15:38] geekphreak: Its a VM. No grub. I'll figure it out though, thanks guys :) [15:38] i am on dual boot [15:38] i know its a long line, but can anyone please try to read it and tell me what went wrong [15:38] acicula, oh right sorry. posix standard documentation. got it. [15:39] dnivra: so basically homework [15:39] So is beta 1 of 10.04 worth a try then? Is it relatively bug free? [15:39] conb123 : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. [15:39] shutdown and logoff options has disappeared from the indicator applet. What do I do now? [15:39] I have tried reboot [15:39] haavaros: add it again [15:39] geekphreak: I've tried that too [15:39] and? [15:40] and reverting to default [15:40] conb123: a thought: NO Beta version of any software is 100% bug free [15:40] acicula, thanks for pointing me in the direction. not exactly homework: it's a project yes but I'm really interested in learning these well and making a good application or something to enhance understanding. not just for my course requirements but to really learn it. [15:40] haavaros: What version of Ubuntu are you using? [15:40] Pici: 9.10 === zbenjamin|away is now known as zbenjamin [15:40] Trek: Yes I understand that, hence the use of 'relatively' [15:40] hi [15:40] I did "chmod -x ts3install.run" and then "sudo ts3install.run".. installation finished but I cant find it anywhere :/ [15:40] my disk got a s.m.a.r.t error, grub starts but fails and a liveCD fails to mount it... any chance of recovery? (currently trying clonezilla, watching the errors scroll by) [15:40] conb123: hence why I stated the fact that nothing's bug free. just wait for them to release the stable distro [15:41] dnivra: well working with syscalls on ubuntu/linux is pretty well documented,linux\unistd.h has numbers for syscalls and syscall manpages are in section 2, library ones in 3 === Afrix2 is now known as Afrix [15:41] Baram, Damn ... a bonafide hard drive failure looks like [15:41] Baram: hard drive going kapooot [15:41] dnivra: oh and dont bother with __SYSCALL macros, think those are deprecated , at least they didnt work the last time i tried but some texts will still point you towards those [15:42] acicula, will remember that! time to save this log file:). thanks a lot acicula was a load of help. [15:42] acicula, oh that is important news: fresh out of reading one of those macro definitions. [15:42] Baram: you can use data recovery tools, cross fingers ;) [15:42] geekphreak I think going has come and gone [15:42] Baram: ext4 partition or ext3? [15:42] geekphreak any suggestions, my (no longer fool proof) method in the past has always been a liveCD [15:43] geekphreak ext4 [15:43] please, need some help with TS3 installation.... got the file and ran it... installed, but not showing up anywhere [15:43] dnivra: you can get it to work i think, but i remember jumping throuhg a lot of hoops to do it [15:43] if mounting a remote file server via nautilus (i think that's it, like the finder in osx or iexplore in windows for browsing the filesysetm), where does that get mounted so i can get to the same directory via the terminal? I'm unable to see it mounted in /proc/mounts [15:43] acicula, it's deprecated right? so better to find the alternative to it. [15:43] Baram: risky thing ;) [15:43] dnivra: if all else fails you can just inline a bit of asm, heh, just not very pretty [15:43] hi need help with ubuntu [15:44] anybody? [15:44] Baram: got any other partition there to test/play? [15:44] Ahlee: mounting it via? - smb? [15:44] shutdown and logoff options has disappeared from the indicator applet. I have Ubuntu 9.10, I have tried reverting to gnome panel defaults, readding indicator and googling. Still have to use terminal or ctrl-alt-del to shutdown. Any suggestions? [15:44] Hey guys. I would like to install Ubuntu + all updates + a certain program, then zip everything back up into an ISO that people can easily download and install with stuff pre-packaged. A - How do I do that? Is there a tool to handle this task? B - Where could I host a 1gb-1.5gb file for people to easily download? [15:44] geekphreak: thinking I might go back to ext3 next time [15:44] dnivra: not really sure, it just didnt work for me last i tried and had to jump through a fair bit of hoops to get it to compile, try it i suppose? [15:44] moetunes: yes sorry, it's a cifs share so Samaba would have mounted it [15:44] deightm: ask [15:44] Baram: when u try to mont via live cd , device busy error? [15:45] geekphreak: IO error in dmesg [15:45] acicula, he he. we have to use syscalls to do stuff. else the shell would have been filled with execlp("/bin/ls"..) and so on; making it a complete bash clone:). yeah I will give it a shot. [15:45] moetunes: I don't 100% recall how I originally mounted it, it's a short cut on my desktop now that I double click, but I haven't rebooted in a few weeks [15:45] Ahlee: checked in /mnt or /media? [15:45] Baram: thats not good, , so u cant even chroot , dang [15:45] deightm: yeah...ask [15:45] geekphreak: yeah, that's why I'm trying clonezilla now... it's doing something, and yelling at me with a ton of errors [15:46] hi [15:46] moetunes: yes, it's not there either. Maybe gnome is wrapping fuse to mount it? [15:46] is there a getch() like function when using g++ [15:46] Hi ! Why Jdownloader uses more than 230 mb on my Ubuntu 9.1 but on Windows 7 max 100 mb ? :( Both of OS are 64 bit ? [15:46] I'm about ready to just remount it from the terminal [15:46] I have laptop running win7, with share on it. Ive managed to mount that share on my netbook running unr. But share autounmounts in about half an hour [15:47] Ahlee: afaik that's more than probable - try ./.gvfs [15:47] deightm: did you mount it using the adding it to fstab method ? [15:47] Ahlee: afaik that's more than probable - try ~/.gvfs - I meant [15:47] so i left my netbook to copy files, and when i returned file manager hanged [15:47] * Baram is wishing he took that computer foreinsics class now [15:48] jpam: different JVMs between Win7 and Ubuntu 9.10 - are you using Sun's JVM under Windows, and whatever implementation ubuntu drops in their repos now-a-days [15:48] Hi folks, ah, got a strange problem. maybe. So, i've been having issues installing ubuntu and wanted to try the text only install, given the ATI/AMD setup I have. Trouble is, I downloaded the x64 alt install cd, but it doesnt...give me any options for that mode? I'm kind of confused. [15:48] moetunes: winner! it's right there in ~/.gvfs/ [15:48] Yes ı'm using Sun Java both of OS. (both are updated) [15:48] as my plan was text only install then load the ATI driver port to ubuntu and see if i could well..run. [15:48] Ahlee: :) [15:48] DarkSector: Ive monted it using "Connect to server..." under main menu [15:49] deightm: wait a minute, you said the share existing on the local machine right ? [15:49] Baram: 1 sec [15:49] jpam: then I'm going to say that it's likely not using more memory, it's reporting different memory usage due to the difference Linux displays managed memory and how Windwos displays managed memory [15:49] DarkSector: yes share is on my laptop running win 7 [15:49] is there a getch() like function when using gcc [15:49] Baram: you there? [15:49] hmmm ... [15:49] DarkSector: and ive mounted it on my netbook running ubuntu netbook remix [15:49] deightm: ah ok [15:49] you say windows is bad boy :) [15:49] rashd7_: getch is provided by ncurses, has little to do with gcc? [15:50] DarkSector: and everything works fine, except it autou unmounts after little time [15:50] deightm: hang on [15:50] DarkSector: power is connected so its not power saving problem [15:50] hrm, anybody? [15:50] jpam: No, I said it's reporting different values, not that the differences is necessarily better or worse. Linux memory management and how it's displayed is a muddy, murky thing, especially when you start diving into linked libraries [15:51] hmm. OK! Thank you!... [15:51] DarkSector: laptop and netbook are connected via wifi through access point [15:51] DarkSector: and im pretty sure connection is 100% stable [15:52] DarkSector: so i believe there is an option for auto unmount [15:52] DarkSector: but because of little ubuntu expirience i have no idea where to search for that option [15:53] anyone please, how do I install teamspeak 3 [15:53] hi [15:53] How can i have this automount upon bootup - smb://mcs01/development/ [15:54] so when i do file -> open for stuff i'd like to see my share appear there. [15:54] i have setup xstart and now i am at work and i would like to open firefox from home how can i do this please [15:54] Dr4g: add a proper entry in /etc/fstab for that. using 'cifs' for the fileysstem [15:54] DarkSector: any ideas? [15:54] Dr_Willis, i will google for fstab and cifs [15:55] Dr4g: check the smbmount docs also theres should be examples [15:55] can someone please tell me how to install TeamSpeak 3 ? [15:55] Who can tell me why file copy speed win7 -> win7 was 950 kbytes/s via wifi, but win7 -> ubuntu on same machines makes only 500 kbytes/s ? [15:55] I don't know how. [15:56] Is this wifi driver related issue? [15:56] Someone who is native english speaker tell me if statement "PASCAL's beginners language" is correct and means the same that "Pascal is beginners language" ? [15:56] Hey guys. I would like to install Ubuntu + all updates + a certain program, then zip everything back up into an ISO that people can easily download and install with stuff pre-packaged. A - How do I do that? Is there a tool to handle this task? B - Where could I host a 1gb-1.5gb file for people to easily download? [15:56] deightm: crappy wifi drivers, poor implementation of SMB2 protocol, interference in the wireless spectrum, the possibilities are numerous [15:56] though teampseak was in synaptic [15:56] Dr_Willis, i'm unsure of what to add in my /etc/fstab file. === cpdstudio__ is now known as No14Day [15:56] anyone knows how to fix the bug at ubuntu 9.10 where the xserver crashes and logs out the user to gdm? [15:57] deightm: slight networking lag? might not even be an issue [15:57] i have setup xstart and now i am at work and i would like to open firefox from home how can i do this please [15:57] Dr_Willis, the examples i see on the web are all linux examples. === esde_ is now known as esde [15:57] Its not slight its stable lag [15:57] Roasted: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization, and torrent/filesharing services ? [15:57] Roasted: hello [15:58] win7 -> win7 on the same network and same machines and even same files always gave me ~950 kbyte/s for las half year [15:58] win 7 add more, its bloated, heh [15:58] deightm: so? same difference, it sometimes does that, but its still good speeds [15:58] Dr_Willis, i forgot to mention this is a share on the network, not on this PC - i can access it fine with smb://mcs01/development/ but i want to mount it upon boot. [15:58] Roasted: remastersys works well [15:58] Dr_Willis, you following me ? [15:58] hello, i cant find this ( System → Administration → Software Properties ) in my menu of administration - any help ? [15:58] but win7 -> ubuntu looks like if its limiting connection someway [15:59] hi! How do I get a script run at startup before anybody is allowed to login? I tried to put it in /etc/rcS.d/, and that does delay the console login until it finishes, but kdm starts up before it's done anyway for some reason [15:59] yeah but why then people always say that ms sux, and linux rules [15:59] if it cannot even give comparable speed? [15:59] yehia: whatcha trying to do? [15:59] i have to backup my Ubuntu. ıt is good to install Ubuntu on VirtualBox and after i will install my special softwares, can i backup with remastersys and when install this backup to other computers at school ? is it good or it is better to install directly on computers on school ? [15:59] vadim_: startup is not sequential anymore, check upstart [15:59] deightm: could be firewall restrictions or distance from computer, could be one of a million things [15:59] hola [16:00] HOLA, soy NUEVO en Ubuntu, necesitaría alguna ayudita [16:00] really how to increase wifi connection speed [16:00] pero no se si este es el mejor canal [16:00] geekphreak, iam trying to enable the Universe repository.

[16:03] deightm: poor wireless driver implementation(try a newer one), different tcp/ip defaults, different tx/rx settings by the driver or card even [16:03] so whats the best wifi driver for linux [16:03] yehia: then?

[16:35] yup [16:35] to an executable, right? [16:35] moetunes: probably need some more libs then just build-essential [16:35] yehia: you added the repositorie? if so you have to change dapper to karmic in the line given ... [16:35] nno [16:35] Noble: theres proberly a few tweaks.. but ive not really noticed anything major.

[16:37] acicula: can't find which tho - it normally spits out which are missing - I get nothing like that - I'm guessing the compiler was built without something maybe [16:37] yehia: the easest way is to go here http://sourceforge.net/projects/campcaster/files [16:37] Noble: i normally use the UNR disk anyway on my netbook. :) [16:37] erUSUL, If it's a .deb, you should only have to double click it, pretty much [16:37] yehia, * [16:38] yehia: dwonload the three deb files listed campcaster-libs_1.4.0-3beta3_i386.deb campcaster-studio_1.4.0-3beta3_i386.deb and campcaster-station_1.4.0-3beta3_i386.deb and install them by double clickin in them [16:38] moetunes: well it says the linker does not support dynamic libs, which seems unlikely [16:38] yehia: install firs the one that says libs. (double clickng in it once downloaded) [16:39] acicula: but it can't get past that - no mention of anything missing [16:39] moetunes: have a look in the readme for versions/required software, or check what the configure script is actually checkking?

[16:45] researcher1, it gonna be difficult.. because you will encounter dependencies problems [16:45] llutz: they kind of are - using fstab prevented me from ever shutting my laptop down - problem turned out to be cifs over wifi, someting about my connection [16:46] nikolaj_basher: yow did you make the usb stick? i seem to recall the server edition did not properly work with the usb-disk-creator tool or unetbootin [16:46] is there any magic recipe to configure a decent resolution , having a VIA video driver ?

Built in monitor, mouse and keyboard, takes up little room, built in UPS ....

I find that network manager is VERY slow at presenting new wireless networks. I have to disable wireless then re-enable it for it to pick up any new networks unless I don't mind waiting for 10 minutes. What's up with this? [16:57] hi [16:57] guys, I screwed up and forgot to format /home on a Jaunty install. I want to set up ecrypt on the home directory for a user. Is there a way to do this after the fact? [16:58] Roasted: try with « sudo iwlist wlan0 scan » [16:58] Roasted: thats odd.. i find it much faster here at rescanning then windows. [16:58] Roasted: Are you using the normal network manager? [16:58] anybody here? [16:58] i need help [16:58] !ask | kazakh [16:58] kazakh: 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. :-) [16:58] calum, yes. Dr_Willis I have two E5500 laptops here. Ubuntu 9.10 on one, XP Pro SP3 on the other. The XP laptop picks up new networks fine on the fly. For me on Ubuntu, I have to disable wireless then re-enable for Ubuntu to pick it up. [16:59] can Ubuntu 9.10 be booted off of a legacy grub? any tips? [16:59] Roasted: is it a Dell? [16:59] og01 sorry its update-manager :) [16:59] I just want to make sure I'm doing this right... what's the correct command line for upgrading from 9.04 -> 9.10 ? [16:59] Roasted: Try installing wcid network manager from the repos, its quick to refresh and simple [16:59] Dr_Willis, now, I do find Ubuntu is quicker to find SAVED SSID's and connect to them. But there's 3 wifi networks we have here at work and I could only pick up 2, despite all 3 being in range. Once I disabled/re-enabled NM it was fine. [16:59] hmm synaptic isnt showing any upgrades i think, though i havnt really used it before. i've used apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and its not really upgraded anything [16:59] how do I know if a computer is a Ubuntu server or a desktop ? [16:59] calum, already tried it. wasn't overly impressed. and the semi dead development of it right now isnt that appealing. [16:59] Trek, yes, latitude E5500s. both of them [16:59] researcher1: do you have a graphical interface, or text-only interface? [16:59] is there a way to setup up ecryptfs on home directories after jaunty is already installed? [17:00] Roasted: you cnecked if its the wifi card(s)? [17:00] Researcher, if it's server you'll be booted to the command line, desktop starts either gnome or kde by default [17:00] Trek, checked what about the wifi cards? [17:00] maybe i should update to 9.10? is it recomended? [17:00] Trek: It was text only then I installed ubuntu-desktop on it [17:00] Roasted: hmm, strange. I had problems with the standard manager but wcid worked for me :( [17:00] Roasted: the wifi card in my dell latitude E6500 decided to die shortly after Ubu was installed, and I narrowed it down to the wifi card failing [17:01] anybody know a big repo ?:) [17:01] calum, I didnt have any problems with WICD. I just think it needs some more work to really be fully utilized as a network manager alternative. [17:01] i've given up on network manager. wicd more stable here [17:01] Roasted: so check that out and try swapping the cards, seeing if it works [17:01] databoy2k: any luck? [17:01] Trek, not sure... I mean, its a new laptop. both of them. *shrug* [17:01] .. with many programs ?? [17:01] Trek, I dual boot with XP on this, and I haven't noticed the same issues here. [17:01] Trek, and besides, I have Ubuntu on a toshiba laptop at home that does the same thing. [17:01] Roasted, you right click on the NM icon and edit connections and see if the 3rd wifi on the list have is disabled [17:01] *shrugs* then it could be the card that's in that thing and the network manager. Betcha its an Intel card or a Broadcom. [17:02] Roasted: ^^ [17:02] bruso-ko, it's not disabled. once I disable wifi and re-enable, it comes up fine. if it were disabled, it wouldnt show up at all. [17:02] Trek, realteak card in the toshiba, broadocm in both dells. [17:02] realtek* [17:02] Roasted: and Broadcom drivers are loaded correctly in the Dell one? [17:02] GO UBUNTU! [17:02] ugh, realtek... *nukes it* [17:02] !ot | ZTG|Homework [17:02] ZTG|Homework: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [17:03] Okay. [17:03] Trek, *shrug* I just installed them through the network manager. [17:03] Realtek caused me some major issues, uggh [17:03] my realtek works fine on the toshiba. but it displays the same behavior with NM as my broadcom does. Very unlikely its just a conicidence. [17:03] I guess most people wouldnt see the same thing I do, since I bounce from wifi network to wifi network frequently here at work. [17:03] Roasted: might be the drivers it uses... [17:03] Roasted: that would be the case [17:04] I'm switching wifi networks all the time [17:04] Roasted: i bounce between wireless access points but thats it [17:04] Hey guys, i'm trying to install a new lock screen in Ubuntu but I don't know how to copy the downloaded lock screen (which I have on my desktop) to the usr/share/gnome-screensaver directory [17:04] Trek, we're talking about two cards here. on tiop of that, I dual boot XP on this same laptop and XP doenst exhibit these same issues. Its definitely not a failing card, and unless the linux drivers for realtek and broadcom both suck, only then could that be a possibility. [17:04] <_OskaR_> hi, i lost my eth0 device how do i get it back .... [17:04] Trek, I have no issues going from access point to access point unless I go running down the hall quickly enough for the controller not to pass me off to the next AP properly. [17:05] Roasted: The broadcom and realtek drivers are compiled by reverse-engineering the closed source drivers that are for those cards [17:05] It's just when I'm dealing with different SSID's. [17:05] Roasted, its possible they're just bad [17:05] i'll be back [17:05] Roasted: to install a b43 card just « sudo aptitude install b43-fwcutter » while connected by other means (wired) to internet. then reboot [17:05] erUSUL, I have it installed... [17:05] Can anybody help me? [17:05] when upgrading to 9.10 should i expect anything to break? i've got an excrpyted system, and things like mythtv and i dont use gnome, i use xmonad... [17:06] <_OskaR_> hi, i lost my eth0 device how do i get it back .... it was gone after a abrupt loss of power.... [17:06] Either this laptop or my router keeps disconnecting from the internet :( I have to be on wired connection [17:06] og01, any PPA or added repos will be wiped, medibuntu included. that happens any time you upgrade Ubuntu, though. [17:06] og01, so expect to install medibuntu and any 3rd party repos again. [17:06] anyone able to tell me if there is a windows RDC client (RDP version 7) compatible remote desktop software available I am unable to get sound in redesktop because it supports version 5 of the protocol [17:06] Roasted: still no wlan0 device listed in « iwconfig » ? [17:06] harry-houdini1: tsclient ? [17:06] erUSUL, my wifi works fine. Im just curious why I have trouble picking up SSID's at times. [17:06] Roasted: ok [17:06] erUSUL, its like theres a 10 minute lag time before Network Manager shows new networks in the area. [17:07] Roasted: ok thanks, it wont bork the encrypted filesystem though? [17:07] Roasted: I have the same problem [17:07] <_OskaR_> hi, i lost my eth0 device how do i get it back .... it was gone after a abrupt loss of power.... i get erorr no sutch device [17:07] _OskaR_: what NIC? [17:07] og01, I wont lie to you, I have no experience with encrypted file ysstems. But I figured I'd relay to you what little I DO know about things not working after upgrades, which as far as I know is just the added repos. [17:07] <_OskaR_> atheros [17:07] I have a 64 bit amd why does the desktop installer want to install the i386 version of kubuntu? [17:07] erUSUL: clonezilla appears to have failed :( [17:07] hiya - I want to delete my windows and hp recovery partitions from this dual-boot system. Is it possible to extend my Ubuntu partion into the space I free up? [17:07] Roasted: ok thanks, guess i'll have to find out [17:07] <_OskaR_> it has been working long time .. [17:07] og01, you could always use clonezilla to make a backup image of that install and throw it on an external hard drive, then do the upgrade. that way if it tanks after the upgrade, you can blast the image back. [17:07] _OskaR_: so is a wifi NIC ? [17:07] calum, you do? with network manager? [17:07] erUSUL it seems as thought it only supports version 5 not version 7 unless there is a newer version somewhere [17:08] <_OskaR_> lan [17:08] Baram: :(; then try anothe method ? [17:08] anyone use wireless mouse ? [17:08] How do I copy files into usr/share directory?

[17:08] Roasted: Yes, sometimes the ESSID of my network doesn't show up until reboot [17:08] I had a Ubuntu server installed then I ran 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ". Now Im getting GUI as expected.But will my server features be still working or will it be replaced by desktop features? [17:08] Hope i in the right place, i am told this is where the brainy people hang out! I need to get my webcam to work its a genius 322 in using ubuntu 9.1. Can antone help? [17:08] Roasted: good idea i think i'll just take the risk - if it goes sour then its a good excuse to do the whole system again [17:08] alwaizlern: sudo cp from to [17:08] calum, I have problems if Im connected to 1 network and I hit suspend, then travel away from the network, and bring the laptop back to life.

[17:09] but it won't copy a folder [17:09] alwaizlern: cp -r === yofel_ is now known as yofel [17:09] calum, but like I said, if I disable wireless in network manager and then re-enable it, it tends to update faster and work fine.

[17:09] recursive alwaizlern do man cp [17:09] og01, yeah, I love clonezilla. simple live CD and a relatively easyt o use menu. I use it a lot for backing up entire disks or just partitions. [17:09] can Ubuntu 9.10 be booted off of a legacy grub? any tips? [17:09] Roasted: I might give that a try. I'e reset my router countless times, but I have 70% signal here [17:09] alwaizlern: man cp [17:10] ok was looking for a product name ..thanks [17:10] !iso [17:10] To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.

[17:10] Roasted: i guess though that clonezilla will likely struggle a little with an encrypted volume, and not be able to reduce it in size, instead creating a full size backup [17:10] calum, yeah, try that... it works for me. I try to make it a habit to disconnect from wifi on ANY OS (not just ubuntu) before suspending, since it tends to screw things up when I bring it back to life. However, Ubuntu seems to handle it better as long as I manually disconnect/reconnect to new wifi network when I bring it back to life.

New to Ubuntu. Anyone know if there is a repo with Gnome 3 packages for 9.04? Apparently, my Google foo isn't working well. [17:12] Roasted, use the correct wifi interface name, i used wlan0 as a sample [17:13] geekphreak, I understand it can be risky but there are some files I copied that I need to remove but when I try the [17:13] researcher1: change run level? [17:13] bruso-ko, it seems as if my wireless is listed as eth1 instead of wlan0 when I run ifconfig. when I run ifconfig I just have eth0 and eth1 [17:13] sudo rm command it still doesnt let me [17:13] but even with eth1, same error. [17:13] lojack>: there is no gnome 3 still [17:13] bruso-ko, nevermind. gotta use sudo. :P [17:13] researcher1 drop to terminal and do "sudo service gdm stop" [17:13] geekphreak:How to change runlevel? [17:13] alwaizlern: sudo rm -fr /folder/path [17:13] researcher1 sudo service gdm start turns it back on [17:13] thank you [17:13] alwaizlern, be careful with rm -rf!!!!!! [17:14] once more.. can Ubuntu 9.10 be booted off of a legacy grub? any tips? i failed so far [17:14] researcher1: telinit run_level_number [17:14] Baram:thanks.that works [17:14] geekphreak: runlevels 2-5 are equal in ubuntu [17:14] !runlevels [17:14] In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. === xumuk37 is now known as XuMuK [17:14] llutz: true :(, i dont like it :( [17:14] bruso-ko one of my machines (upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 to 9.10) runs off grub1 just fine [17:14] fabio333: Thanks. Gnome 2.8 perhaps? Just looking for an update beyond 2.6 [17:15] geekphreak: why do you recommend it then? it makes no sense at all [17:15] Baram, whats your entry like on the legacy? mine says it cannot find the stage15 when it faults at boot [17:15] : the lastest is 2.30 from lucid [17:15] No sound (Analog headphones), karmic, 2.6.31-9-rt [17:15] I have a Windows 7 install on my first hard disk and an Ubuntu 9.10 install on my second hard disk (this disk also has one NTFS partition). For one reason or another, I need to keep Windows's bootloader - how can I boot into Ubuntu from that? [17:15] bruso-ko what entry? [17:15] I can hear the sound on the built-in speakers (Analog output) but none on the headphones [17:15] Baram, new 9.10 dont have that stage15 in the /boot/grub anymore [17:16] <_OskaR_> hi, i lost my eth0 device how do i get it back .... is there a way to get ubuntu redetect it ? [17:16] tuntis: you can't [17:16] you need grub [17:16] fabio333: I said Gnome 3. I meant Gnome 2.3. My mistake. [17:16] Baram, entries for 9.10 on your legacy grub? [17:16] onto: That sounds like a hardware issue. [17:16] Vigo: was working fine with debian [17:16] xangua: Is it possible to install grub on the Ubuntu partition or something and chain that from Windows's bootloader? [17:16] _OskaR_, what do you meant lost? not showing up when you do ifconfig? [17:17] onto: Are you using the same repos? [17:17] bruso-ko you mean in menu.lst? [17:17] <_OskaR_> device eth0 not found .. [17:17] Baram, yes [17:17] Vigo, what do you mean (sorry, new to ubuntu, linux in general) [17:17] ? [17:17] _OskaR_, try to reboot, and see it recovers [17:18] onto: Like Jack, Alsa , Pulse Audio ? [17:18] <_OskaR_> tried several times.. [17:18] Vigo, Pulse audio I think [17:18] Is anyone good with nmap output here? [17:18] <_OskaR_> tried remove network profiles to ..set to auto [17:18] Vigo, yep, definitely pulse audio [17:18] _OskaR_: what chipset? [17:19] _OskaR_, when you do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart what results do you get? [17:19] onto: Do you have Jack installed or did you have it on Debian? [17:19] llutz: other run level too , and you should know howto :) [17:19] :p [17:19] <_OskaR_> bruso-ko , is there a way to force it to detect hw.. ? init.d ..silence [17:19] How do I save my cpufreq settings so they are loaded every time I boot up? [17:19] geekphreak: ? [17:19] Vigo, had it on debian, not anymore [17:19] _OskaR_: try loading the drivers should be one of the varisous atl* drivers [17:20] bruso-ko see pm [17:20] _OskaR_, hal does with udev, parse your dmesg command results to see which eth* was detected [17:20] Does anyone know why a service called zeroconf is listening on udp port 5353? [17:20] onto: I think that is the error then, install or fetch it from the repositories. [17:20] Vigo, will try [17:20] onto: Ok, please let us know if that resolves the issue. [17:20] calum: well is there to make zeroconf devices work with ubuntu [17:21] anybody know a repo with MANY programs in???? [17:21] Baram do you still have a stage15 for your 9.10 ? [17:21] does anybody know with what to mount .cue image files?

[17:21] erUSUL: no :P [17:21] erUSUL: Was curious, I ran a nmap udp scan and it showed udp port 5353 running zeroconf and 68 running dhcpc... [17:21] bruso-ko but no stage15 [17:21] _OskaR_, looks like it has been renamed. look around /etc/ude/rules.d for rules that created those eth* [17:22] hey. I've been trying to install a piece of software that is compatible with ubuntu. Ubuntu recognizes the software, but when I press run, nothing happens, and when i press run in terminal, it says extracting DEBs but then doesn't do anything. Is there something special I have to do to install software? [17:22] Baram, right, i mistyped stage1_5 i meant [17:22] remoteCTRL1: you have either convert them to iso and mount them via standar tools or install something like acetone iso [17:22] Vigo, ok, jackd installed, what now? [17:23] pingvinqq: then install debian. it has even larger repositories. help on #debian [17:23] Vigo, I tried launching qjackctl and starting jackd but it spits an error [17:23] onto: restart or test it now [17:23] bruso-ko no stage1_5 on it's own, but various different fs types (ie xfs_stage1_5) [17:23] it seems like grub2 dont use stage1 files anymore [17:23] Vigo, restart pulse audio? [17:23] erUSUL: no i dont like debian .. ubuntu ... i ... like ... :D [17:23] Baram it seems like grub2 dont use stage1 files anymore [17:24] calum: with netstat you can see what service listens there, in this case the avahi zeroconf deamon [17:24] calum: network/service discovery etc [17:24] onto: That may resolve any errors, you just added a widget to a repo, it needs to figure it out. [17:24] Acicula: Are there any security issues with zeroconf listening like that? That was my main issue [17:24] anyways .. how should i do if i want to change my "computer" name any commands?:) [17:24] Vigo, so restart the computer? :S [17:25] !hostname | pingvinqq [17:25] pingvinqq: Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. [17:25] onto: That is what I would do, yes. [17:25] so how do i do?:P [17:25] Vigo, ok === jeiworth__ is now known as jeiworth [17:25] calum: well there is always a risk, but the program is relatively simple and is jailed and runs as its own user without much priviledges [17:25] calum: every running service which isn't needed is a security isse [17:25] issue [17:26] Do you know how I shut down the zeroconf daemon? Through sudo? The only one I think I need running is udp 68/dhcpc [17:27] llutz: I could debate that with you, could be fun. [17:27] Vigo:short debate: i'm right :) [17:27] Vigo: its a short debate [17:27] calum: remove avahi-daemon from start up sequence.... « sudo update-rc.d -f avahi-daemon remove » ???

I will give it a try, that is if anyone thinks it should be running [17:28] Vigo: good luck :) [17:28] calum: i like it running ussually :P [17:28] Acicula: I have 5 pcs on my local network [17:28] calum: you probably want it then [17:28] _OskaR_, yes, those are the rules to create the interface names, fiddle with them to get your eth0 back [17:28] Vigo: ok, restarted [17:29] <_OskaR_> k.

Question: I have a crypt-luks ext4 externalHD, I must connect it to a debian pc without support to ext4. I need convert the partition in ext3 without lose the crypt and the files. Can you help me? [17:29] Right. I don't think I want to cause trouble shutting it down. Nmap says udp port 5353 is filtered. It is possibly alright then but idk [17:29] rbdyck, looks like you didnt get to install the boot loader [17:29] Vigo, do I test without starting jackd? [17:30] sda_: you can not [17:30] hello can someone please help me with empathy [17:30] onto: Yes, I would, then run it by the numbers.

Seems that these ports are inaccessible to LAN users [17:32] Vigo, I can hear the headphones "initializing" (click), at boot-time but no sound [17:32] man why cant people just ask [17:32] my existing fedora 11 is already booting with ext4 fs, but uses old grub, how do i tell it to boot ubuntu 9.1 installed in another partition but 9.1 dont have the older stage1 files ? [17:32] sda_: seems a bit low on memory [17:32] calum: good luck, got coffee? :) [17:33] :) [17:33] calum: they are accessible from the local lan, just a matter of sending the right udp packet [17:33] geekphreak: who do you think is not asking? [17:33] which may not provoke a response of any kind [17:34] onto: Then it is a start to a correction, if it did not activate before. [17:34] I cannot use my yahoo account in empathy.

[17:42] hmw the stage1 is specific to the os as far as i know, or maybe its the devicemap thats confusing grub.. i cant remember [17:42] hmm... [17:42] i use ubuntu karmic [17:42] I know acicula...does this mean I have to reformat mu ubuntu partition, then do a fresh install? [17:43] onto: not the correct one, but may help a bit, still looking now that I have that data. http://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/sound [17:43] iknowgungfu: normal upgrades are incremental so from 8.04->8.10->9.04 etc, except for lts, so you can also upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04, but not directly from 8.04 to 9.10, without doing all the intermediate upgrades [17:43] iknowgungfu: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/lucid/beta1 [17:43] Smith: timeout for what? [17:43] Ahh..I see. 10.04 is on it's way soon right?

Or just copy the download file to the CD? [17:46] Guest34602, just for a comparison, i tried to do a network install from the internet, it only took me 8 hours to download stuff on 75kbps line and am still not quite done.

You aren't looking at the right thing [17:50] ripthejacker_: did you try to recreate the account? [17:50] guest 34602 but you need to "burn" the ISO to a blank cd using something like Roxio (in the windows world). You can not just copy the iso to the cd, it is just an image [17:50] I don't know if my Burner will burn DVD...I tried [17:50] if you use a correct tool then it will fit [17:50] geekphreak: no should i?

I have one specific machine that cannot get security updates from either of its IPs (or connect to port 80 there, even with telnet), although other machines on the same subnet are fine.

[17:56] I'll try Astroburn [17:57] Guest34602: cdburnerxp is descent too [17:57] InfraBurn burns it complete with errors [17:57] without errors...sorry [17:57] Guest34602: then use it [17:57] sup [17:58] I have....When I boot the burned live CD it freezes at Splash page [17:58] dj_segfault: this is the ISO ftp://ftp.gnu.org/mirrors/dynebolic/ [17:58] On my Laptop and Desktop [17:58] Guest34602: okay, so now you no longer have the issue with the iso being too large? [17:58] question: if i install the lucid beta right now, will i have to reinstall/upgrade when the final release comes out? [17:58] Where can I change the keyring settings along with the password to the saved passowrds? [17:58] The only issue with the ISO being large comes from IMGburn...which says so on Verification [17:58] but it still burns it [17:58] winr4r: upgrade-manager will keep you up to date [17:59] jrib: awesome [17:59] winr4r: Upgrading will work [17:59] winr4r: or update-manager or whatever :P [17:59] oh, i'm late :( [17:59] fuorviatos: Aplications>Accesories>keys and password .... [17:59] jrib: update- :D [17:59] jrib: yeah my concern was if i would have to do a distribution upgrade when lucid comes out, rather than just update as normal [17:59] if that makes sense [17:59] winr4r: You can also upgrade to Lucid from Karmic. [18:00] winr4r: upgrade as normal [18:00] theadmin: i'm after doing a fresh install [18:00] goodnight peeps [18:00] jrib: okay awesome [18:00] i'm gonna do this!1# [18:00] So the only thing I can figure...Is most of the Disc is being Burned well....But some stuff is left off...to get past the Splash Screen [18:00] Just don't complain it doesn't work then :D winr4r, Lucid support is in #ubuntu+1, if you don't know [18:00] Guest34602: did you try "check the cd for defects" from the menu? [18:01] jrib...It freezes when I select that option [18:01] Guest34602: did you burn at 2x or 4x? [18:01] It freezes when I try select any of the Splash Menu options [18:01] * winr4r starts backing stuff up :D [18:01] Not 2x [18:01] Guest34602: so at 4x? [18:02] I believe I've tried that [18:02] but I can try again [18:02] I'm sitting here looking at the file and it says 706 MB on my computer [18:02] How will that fit on a 700 mb disc? [18:02] hm, wat [18:03] Guest34602: For me, ISO was ~690 MB big. Something's fishy there. [18:03] Guest34602: have you tried burning the iso [18:04] When I do properties it says 693 mb (732 mb) [18:04] huh. [18:04] Guest34602: might be base 10 vs base 2 megabytes [18:04] winr4r: that be my guess [18:04] I've read about others having the same problem...but I haven't found where they found a solution [18:05] if the iso would be to large the burning process would have aborted at some stage [18:05] acicula...Under ImgBurn it wants to stop on VERIFICATION after burn...talking about mismatch sizes [18:06] is someone like me allowed to print and sell the ubuntu manual https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-manual ? [18:06] Guest34602: well whats the size stamped onto the cd [18:06] Under Infra Burn it burns ok .....but I see no Verification process [18:06] Guest34602: 650Mb or 700MB? [18:06] 700 MB disc [18:06] 80 minutes [18:06] beer: You are allowed to distribute Ubuntu and related stuff the way you like, it's free as in freedom.

[18:07] That is why its so frustrating [18:07] Guest34602: I can guarantee you the iso fits on a 700mb disc [18:07] theadmin: so I can also go commercial with it [18:07] I think most people just use a DVD disc to get around problem [18:07] nowadays [18:07] Guest34602: no [18:07] Guest34602: You can't burn a CD ISO to a DVD disc :P [18:07] Guest34602: try a different burn program? [18:08] oh...didn't know that [18:08] beer: read the license [18:08] jrib suggested AstroBurn [18:08] I read some suggest Nero [18:08] Guest34602: someone else did [18:08] jrib: Guest34602 I suggested AB, not jrib [18:08] with Oversizing the CD to 90 minutes [18:08] Guest34602: you don't have to do anything special to get this iso on a disc [18:09] Enable Overflow burn and set to 90 minutes [18:09] Maybe windows xp is messing with the file [18:09] Guest34602: I burned it under XP. Everything went smooth.

In my ubuntu i cannot find a GUI autostart option [19:50] because i added self made script to autostart [19:50] using gui autistart manager [19:50] deightm, where is that gui autostart manager? do you remember? [19:50] deightm: you can login from terminal but not gui and your saying its due to a bad startup scrip whcih I dont know how you figured that out [19:51] maybe i have it here too [19:51] hi recommend me switch off on s60 [19:51] i have added that script myself [19:51] it simply adds new resolution [19:51] but it resulted in me being unable to log in [19:51] deightm, safe mode doesn't work i presume?

[19:51] less than 1 day linux user [19:52] <_OskaR_> Help i lost my eth0: .. i put up a live ubutu and then the eth0 works.. udev... rules.d are the same, eaven numbers.. anny clue where else to look .. the device does not eaven list in lspci. [19:52] at the beginning after BIOS either you have the option to do that. Or you have to press ESC to see those options [19:52] i know how to boot in recovery mode [19:52] is that it? [19:52] deightm: simple explanation remove the script from command line cd [folder path] > rm [script name] [19:52] has anybody used the clementine music player here ? does anybody know how to display list of albums, rather than list of artists ? [19:52] deightm, yep should include a safe "gui" mode too [19:52] <_OskaR_> its not ESC on grub2 ints SHIFT !

[19:53] what is problem ? [19:53] deightm: there sin't by default but you can create one and it will read from there [19:53] <_OskaR_> Help i lost my eth0: .. i put up a live ubutu and then the eth0 works.. udev... rules.d are the same, eaven numbers.. anny clue where else to look .. the device does not eaven list in lspci...annyone? [19:54] deightm, xorg.conf is under /etc/X11/xorg.conf [19:54] hmmm bot sorry [19:54] there is no xorg.conf in 9.10 there [19:54] however i could create one [19:54] but its easier to add resolution from console [19:54] deightm: read what I told you make one in /etc/X11/ [19:55] wireless problems please help [19:55] denis: fix them then [19:55] or give more details so someone can help you fix them [19:55] i guess write some one on me or move this chan sorry [19:55] BluesKaj: I couldn't turn off either video device in the bios, but I now know that they're both pci video devices [19:56] <_OskaR_> Wired.. eth0: ..LOST , i put up a live ubutu and then the eth0 works.. udev... rules.d are the same, eaven numbers.. anny clue where else to look .. the device does not eaven list in lspci...annyone? [19:56] newermind i booted in recovery mode [19:56] and fixed everything [19:56] i am running 9.10 and I have installed everything but the wireless it is not working [19:56] sory for panic [19:56] _OskaR_: did you change anything in /etc/resolv.conf or /etc/network/interfaces [19:57] Its just the way ubuntu treat user seems somemething made not for humans [19:57] <_OskaR_> Pirate_Hunter no ,last looks to be the same.. il check the first [19:58] deightm: no worries at least you know how to fix the problem, remember ubutnu is a machine it just does what you tell it, it wont stop you from doing errors, we all thought the same way as you, youll get used to it [19:58] Also about xorg.conf, its the way easier to use xrandr then messing with config file [19:58] OH SHI- [19:59] i forgot to backup my local copy of my web site [19:59] denis: System > Admin > Hardware drivers [19:59] LOL [19:59] oh well [19:59] denis: are there any drivers available for your machine? [19:59] because last time i edited xorg.conf resulted in deleting it from recovery mode [19:59] _OskaR_: do check those files specially check in itnerfaces if auto eth0 is present just tells the system to start eth0 automatically also you could just try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart and see if it gives you any messages [19:59] so now i just use xrandr --newmode [19:59] i have a new qustion [20:00] how do i add script to auto start [20:00] yes it says that the drivers are isnstalled but nothing happends [20:00] it has only two lines [20:00] xrandr --newmode and xrandr --addmode [20:00] denis: what drivers? wireless? video? what? [20:00] <_OskaR_> Pirate_Hunter there is a postfix in the nonworking os. else its tha same (content of files too) [20:00] and it works perfectly when i execute it [20:00] deightm: stick to xorg believe me you'll have better luck getting the system running with it specially since there are so many exmaples online you may even find a premade xorg for your motherboard [20:00] the drivers of the wireless device [20:01] denis: which are ...? [20:01] but how can i add it to autostart, what i need is some sort of windwows autoexec.bat [20:01] denis: *what* is th wireless device? [20:01] So.. does anybody know how to set my default language as English? [20:01] broadcom sta [20:01] denis: is it built into the machine? [20:01] _OskaR_: go into the actual system and run those commands from terminal, write down the message if any first try to manually start network than check the files [20:01] yes, I have a laptop [20:02] what is ubuntu analog for autoexec.bat? === timmillwood is now known as timmillwood_afk [20:02] denis: is there a key combination on the keyboard you can use to disable wireless? make sure that the card is, indeed, active at the hardware level. [20:02] deightm: /etc/rc.local [20:02] deightm: what are you trying to do? [20:02] <_OskaR_> Pirate_Hunter it gives no sutch device ... [20:02] trying to run my script on system start [20:02] yes I have a combination, but nothing! [20:02] <_OskaR_> Pirate_Hunter it gives Error failed to set flag no sutch device ... [20:03] denis: make sure it's active. make *sure*. [20:03] deightm: the same script that messed your system? [20:03] _OskaR_: it doesn't pick up eth0 when you start it up manually? [20:03] yeah but it works if i launch it [20:03] I have no idea how can I be sure the device is active or not [20:03] so the problem was in me adding it to autostart in wrong way [20:04] not in the script itself [20:04] <_OskaR_> Pirate_Hunter : no . not as i do it.. [20:05] _OskaR_: you runnign from VM or the actuall machine and are you sure its eth0, could you pastebin your 'interfaces' file [20:05] hey [20:05] i install ubuntu lucid [20:05] what is the version of nvidia driver [20:05] <_OskaR_> Pirate_Hunter : its a clean 9.10 .. on a real rigg. making pastebin.

[20:09] upgrade should be update-manager -d [20:09] winr4r: yeah the boot time cant be any lower then that I guess [20:09] anyone? [20:09] right [20:09] Whisky_: probably need to add your dns in resolv.conf that si if you manage to surf the net already but sometimes lose connection once in a while, yesterday someone had the same problem but for them it was acpi messing around with their wireless [20:09] also, I get DNS servers that get into my /etc/resolv.conf automatically. Someone in here told me to do something and now even if I delete them they come back [20:10] <_OskaR_> Pirate_Hunter : hmmm strange ... the NONE working os has a auto eth0 the working ,,dont !

Pirate_Hunter just explained your situation [20:39] can someone tell me if it is a security risk when using QEMU to run a guest OS and QEMU is using KVM? would it be more secure for the host OS when QEMU is emulating all without using KVM? [20:40] kvm provides ht extensions as opposed to just emulating [20:40] e-i-k-e: no; kvm just make qemu faster not less secure afaik [20:41] erUSUL: okay, i dont know much about virtualization/emulation but thought it could be a risk to share the host kernel to the guest OS (thats what i think KVM is) [20:41] acicula, What do you advise turn on ip forwarding and use quagga and samba (may be I will make a domen in sammer there) or learn bridges better? Is there any benefit of bridgin. (in my case one of local nets very little) [20:42] Okay. This might sound crazy, but can I embed a terminal in an impress presentation? [20:42] e-i-k-e: you do no share the host kernel when using kvm the guest has its own kernel. you share the hardware resources more efficiently [20:42] street_dvd: do not think so [20:43] HI was wondering if someone can advise on how I can resolve a problem.

[21:58] c3l: well techinically a byte can consist of any number of bits, but 8 has a lot of advantages, including being a power of 2 [21:58] still won't associate [21:59] and there isn't a switch [21:59] holmser: I dunno to be quite honest [21:59] it will currently tether to my phone through an ad hoc network [21:59] FriedrichMan: if you fill them out correctly you should get - but I have to leave - sorry [21:59] this is pissing me off [22:00] c3l: as for why most machines have 8-bit bytes, that's just kind of how it happened [22:00] guntbert: ok, thanks...

I don't want the pcspeaker beep [22:00] raving, aah. so 8 was what got used in the first placed, and for the sake of consistency 8 was kept. a byte is rather a number of bits. and the 8bite byte is whats mostly used, more correctly called an octet? [22:01] c3l: you'll see the "byte" called the octet in networking and interconnect parlance, the oldest machines actually had things like 9-bit bytes [22:01] is there any application for ubuntu to program iphone apps? [22:01] c3l: ASCII is also a 7-bit code and you can use that extra bit for error correction [22:02] Does anyone know how to get HDMI audio and 1080p on an ati RV730 other than using the ati properity driver?

[22:25] histo, on a Toshiba Portege m900 with the Core i3 and nvidia g310m GPU, it is... [22:25] vlt, latest is 1.7 [22:26] need help [22:26] Ek|mu5: what problem are you having? [22:26] help me [22:26] duffydack: In Ubuntu 9.10? [22:26] belli: You're going to need to expand on that [22:26] I can see all of the networks, and I was even able to connect for a very short time (20 sec), but it won't associate with any access points [22:26] it will connect ad hoc just fine [22:26] holmser: intel 2100 is the ipw2100 module which should load and take off with out a hitch. make sure his wifi switch is on [22:26] can lubuntu lucid works on dell c610? [22:27] !lucid > belli [22:27] belli, please see my private message [22:27] it wouldn't be able to connect ad hoc if it wasn't on [22:27] ok [22:27] okay, I'm *PISSED*. The PPA for Firefox 3.6 used my old bookmarks from 3.0 instead of from 3.5. everything I had up-to-date has been erased. the bookmarkbackups themselves have been replaced. [22:27] vlt, from wicd [22:27] everything appears to be working fine, except it won't connect to anything [22:27] histo, screen flickering on the new kernel, something to do with the brightness. This is not an issue on a patched lenny stable kernel even with nvidia drivers (but I don't have HDA Intel support on this kernel so switched back to Ubuntu) [22:27] holmser: yeah thats odd I would try searching the forums for the card see if anyone is having an issue. But that driver has been around for a long time. [22:27] ok,tnx [22:27] now I have to spend the time to rearrange everything, AGAIN [22:28] I've been searching. lots of reports of this happening, so solutions [22:28] but who will wait for 29.04? [22:28] vlt, I assume network-manager is a no go as you are using wicd.. usually means NM failed you anyway [22:28] a word to the noob: if you're going to upgrade to firefox 3.6 via PPA, backup your bookmarkbackups FIRST [22:28] Ek|mu5: maybe boot acpi=off in the mean time [22:28] histo, I first thought this issue was with gnome-power-manager so I switched to Xubuntu after trying XFCE on debian [22:28] Gnea, checked the bookmark backup folder [22:28] heck, backup your profile first [22:28] Ek|mu5: that would tell you if its a power management issue. [22:28] duffydack: What does that mean? [22:28] duffydack: is that a question or statement? [22:29] Ek|mu5: also you can try changing the power management settings in bios from like s3 to s1 etc... see how it reacts. [22:29] hi, I'm rying to ask a question in #inkscape, but it keeps telling me "Cannot send to channel", any idea what's up? [22:29] Gnea, bookmarkbackups folder in .mozilla === rainofkayos is now known as SolarisBoy [22:29] duffydack: again, is that a question or a statement? learn how to read and write before saying something, please. [22:29] Gnea, basically, it backs up bookmarks everytime you modify them.. [22:29] Ek|mu5: but appending acpi=off to the kernel line should tell you if its power management related. [22:29] DavidJHeinrich: Maybe you need to be registered to freenode to speak there. [22:29] duffydack: basically, you didn't read what I wrote. [22:29] DavidJHeinrich, those questions are for #freenode, but odds are the channel is moderated or your nick must be registered [22:29] holmser: let me try searching be right back [22:30] duffydack: " the bookmarkbackups themselves have been replaced." [22:30] histo, see that's the first thing I thought of. If I do that, brightness _sometimes_ doesn't flicker but I can't control the wireless card at all even with it turned on at boot. [22:30] holmser: what version of ubuntu you using? [22:30] 9.10 [22:30] eny croatian or serbian here? [22:30] vlt: how do I get registered to freenode? [22:30] Ek|mu5: thats odd anyone on the forums running your hardware yet? [22:30] Gnea, no need for insults. I didnt see that part. [22:30] duffydack: *nothing* in the backupbookmarks/ folder, within the profile, has up-to-date bookmarks from 2 days ago. they're all from a previous 3.0 profile. [22:30] "Google Gears" could not be installed because it is not compatible with your Firefox build type (Linux_x86-gcc3). Please contact the author of this item about the problem. [22:31] I'm about to try 8.10, from what I have read that should fix it [22:31] duffydack: then maybe you didn't see the part where it said "I'm *PISSED*". [22:31] histo, also I don't have those options in the BIOS (which is the latest on the Toshiba site) [22:31] DavidJHeinrich: Try `/msg nickserv help` [22:31] Gnea, I take full responsibilty. [22:31] heh [22:31] holmser: is that a broadcom chipset on it or the intel one? [22:31] duffydack: it's cool, I'll just have to resort them. plus I have to add a few more. not the end of the world. [22:32] Ek|mu5: hrm.. [22:32] intel [22:32] Ek|mu5: not sure my first try would be searching the forums [22:32] jarray52: What is the difference between "WPA1/2 passphrase" and "WPA1/2 PSK" in the network manager dialog? [22:32] histo, none yet as far as my searching goes, but I'll post there soon after I gather up all my data from the tests I've done [22:32] usually backups are there for a reason.... I just find this bizarre [22:32] vlt, wy are you using wicd and not network-manager? [22:32] holmser: that would be the 3945 intel nvm [22:32] vlt, basically, most people use wicd when NM doesnt work for them.. thats all im saying. [22:33] its a dell d400 [22:33] duffydack: I'm confused. The Program title bar says "wicd network manager" [22:34] holmser: k [22:34] can having low disk space lower performance? I have the /home partition pretty full (only recently) and have noticed a big drop in performace [22:34] vlt, well thats not the default... have you tried network-manager yet? [22:35] duffydack: Not yet. What's the pkg called? "network-manager"? [22:35] holmser: yeah thats supposed tob e the broadcom chipset which would explain your problems [22:35] vlt, err.. yeah I think [22:35] holmser: is he able to get on the net with a wired connection? [22:35] vlt, it will remove wicd [22:35] !broadcom | holmser [22:35] holmser: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [22:35] I'm on the laptop right now... wired is working [22:35] holmser: K go to System > admin > hardware drivers [22:35] holmser: should show you that it has drivers availbible for the broadcom chipset [22:36] nope [22:36] vlt, its the default tool in ubuntu...so I assumed network manager had been used and found to be no good for this setup... [22:36] comes up with nothing [22:36] holmser: what does lspci show for the network card [22:36] !who | holmser [22:36] holmser: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [22:37] hola [22:37] Grr.. I can't seem to get the flash player installed on 9.10 64bit.. anyone know what's up? [22:37] duffydack: wicd came with "lubuntu-desktop" [22:37] histo: 01:03.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04) [22:37] eeeeeeeeeeeoooooooooooooo [22:37] finger holmser [22:38] duffydack: I'm installing network-manager now [22:38] holmser: ok yeah thats not the broadcomm the d400 someone posted it was. [22:38] raza: what areyou doing? [22:38] quit [22:38] dsdfghj [22:38] vlt: wth is lubuntu? [22:39] lubuntu is ubuntu with LXDE === mentr is now known as mentr_bnc [22:39] the driver is working... it just won't associate with any access points [22:39] what a strange bug [22:40] holmser: and your using the network manager to configure right? [22:40] histo: yes [22:41] histo, setting the brightness level to notches from the lowest level resolves the flickering. Setting it any higher introduces the flickering [22:41] histo: and it has no problems connecting ad hoc [22:41] holmser: reading a rather long thread now. [22:41] histo, this is on batteries BTW. On AC, it's not an issue [22:42] Ek|mu5: yeah has to be power management related. I don't think the nvidia drivers even touch on that. [22:42] hi [22:42] histo, I really appreciate your help. I've been banging my head against the wall for a couple days on this [22:42] holmser: yeah thats odd === bfiller is now known as bfiller_afk [22:43] I read one thread that said that it won't work with dhcp, so I disabled that and it still won't connect [22:43] how hard is it to upgrade dapper to something newer [22:43] say hardy lts? [22:43] erm is dapper lts? [22:44] hmm nope its not, so upgrading is hard, [22:44] jbendotnet: dapper to hardy works [22:44] jbendotnet: back up everything, do a clean install [22:44] dapper is LTS btw [22:44] holmser: i'm going to check for bugs i'm sure someone has filed soemthing if thats the case [22:45] histo: thanks [22:45] histo, yeah, I tried tinkering with xorg and powermizer but didn't work [22:45] ow hey , misread it is lts === zz_FeiRuoWa is now known as FeiRuoWa [22:45] OK... can anyone help with my wifi? [22:45] jbendotnet: Support for dapper will end next year ;-) [22:46] ok, there's nothing on the server yet [22:46] hey there.... I kept trying to configure my laptop so it gets a static ip [22:46] so how do i upgrade? [22:46] I changed my /etc/network/interfaces [22:46] holmser: lsmod | grep ipw2100 is that showing that the module is loaded [22:47] now when I #etc/init.d/networking restart ... I get a FAIL message === nosrepa is now known as aperson [22:47] WHat's up with that? [22:47] histo, it's not really major since I get most of the functionality I need, but it's kind of a bummer booting up while getting shoulder surfed by Windoze users in a cafe... :D [22:47] Freeaqingme, pastebin you interfaces file [22:47] My wireless connection continuously drops after a while [22:47] histo: ipw2100 69616 0 libipw 42124 1 ipw2100 [22:47] says something like couldn't read interfaces file [22:47] i have onlinke banking with active card, and that need java plugin, but since karmic doesn't work anymore, any software to do online banking because in the browser is no more available. [22:47] maginot, not today ;) [22:47] FriedrichMan, so I can't help you. [22:48] FriedrichMan, try to write in the terminal: gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces [22:48] vlt, ah lubuntu... no wonder its using wicd then lol.. well see how it goes [22:48] so who could [22:48] Cant help someone that doesnt want help. [22:48] aliancemd: I can Vim it too [22:48] duffydack: I just installed network-manager. How to run it? [22:48] exactly [22:48] and take a look in the file is there: loopback? [22:48] it's not like the file's missing [22:49] does any body here use xchat-gnoem? [22:49] gnome* [22:49] I appear to be using it as we speak [22:49] auto lo [22:49] no, is there any loopback interface? [22:49] iface lo inet loopback [22:49] duffydack: Found it: `nm-applet` [22:49] !pastebin [22:49] holmser: yeah there must be an issue with that card. Let me see if there is an updated driver or something. [22:49] Hmm [22:49] vlt, restart [22:50] vlt, just less messy that way [22:50] how to open more than one channels at once on same or different server in xchat-gnome? [22:50] open a new server tab [22:50] duffydack: I already did [22:50] does any body have compaq [22:50] /etc/network/interfaces:7: option with empty value [22:50] FriedrichMan: What do u try to do? [22:50] vlt, oh.. it should be in your tray same as wicd. [22:50] duffydack: ... but couldn't figure how to run nm [22:50] bahaa, to open other channel just type: /join #channel [22:51] compaq presario 2100 with ubuntu 9.10 on it [22:51] bahaa, to open other server you need to open a new Server tab, on xchat menu [22:51] bahaa: What would having a Compaq have to do with anything? [22:51] !anyone | bahaa [22:51] bahaa: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [22:51] bahaa: ask your real question. [22:51] vlt, well in my startup apps its there as "nm-applet --sm-disable" [22:51] FriedrichMan: What do u try to do? [22:52] ok... now i feel like a total knodhead [22:52] I had the netmask word missing [22:52] duffydack: Looks just the same: nm tries to connect after prompting for password, then asks again and again. [22:52] I have two questions: one: how to open a new server tab in xchat-gnome; and the second one is a little bit long so I'll type it alone:) === Dreamglider is now known as OY1R [22:53] bahaa, well, if xchat-gnome is like xchat, alt+x will open the menu, them select new > server tab [22:54] second: I have compaq presario 2100 with ubuntu 9.10 on it but in command line mode (tty1..tty6) it shows the text in 640*480 res although the lcd res is 1024*768 so the text is in a box surrounded with black? [22:54] ctrl t bahaa [22:54] duffydack: `watch iwconfig` shows the right ESSID but in the AP field it prints "ot-Associated" [22:54] *Not [22:54] bahaa: sounds like its in VESA mode maybe? [22:55] How do extract the initrd.lz, initial guides said to use gunzip, but that didnt work, so a little research led me to lzip, which states it didnt create the file and will not unpack it... [22:55] bahaa: Whats the video card? sudo lshw -C video [22:55] bahaa, to have more them 640x480 on tty you need frame buffer enable on boot [22:55] holmserand maginot: didn't work [22:55] I give up, I'll just use PuTTY for irssi ... but another problem I have in gnome is with the indicator applet: For no apparent reason the shutdown/sleep etc. options have disappeared from the menu. I can only set my status in empathy there [22:55] Now after the third attpemt nm just said "wireless disconnected" and finished. What to try next? [22:56] holmser: is it 802.11n? [22:56] haavaros: I think it might be a permission thing [22:56] any idea? [22:56] anyone used avidemux?after i set a and b markers how can i save that selection as a new vid? [22:56] the network or the card histo? [22:56] dsv: select save from the menu [22:56] dsv: save as? [22:56] holmser: the network [22:57] maginot: I didn't understand [22:57] holmser: I see some bugs filed on the driver on sourceforge about 802.11n networks not being able to associate [22:57] Since gnome-power-manager moved from hal to upower it shows Unknown Remaining Time... :( any idea? [22:57] histo, not sure what its set on right now. let me check [22:57] Lol at bugday email. [22:57] vlt, tried 10.04? [22:57] haavaros: I seem to recall there being a permission setting for "Shutting down the computer" somewhere.. but I can't find it any more [22:58] vieira, are you on Lucid? [22:59] histo: It was set on g [22:59] holmser: hrm.. [22:59] duffydack: No [22:59] LinuxGuy2009, brontosaurusrex how do i make it smaller in size? [22:59] bahaa, when you start your computer you use Grub to select Ubuntu or Windows (if you have it installed), do you know what I'm talking about? [22:59] Eklmu5: yep [23:00] dsv: Change the video profile and/or manually adjust bitrates etc. [23:00] maginot: yes I only have windows and usually the grub loads without even allowing me to choose the mode (that is text or GUI) [23:00] maginot: sorry [23:00] maginot: I mean I don't have win I only have ubuntu [23:00] bahaa, okay, take a look here and see if you can understand: http://pierre.baudu.in/other/grub.vga.modes.html [23:00] dsv: file size, image size or length? [23:01] vieira, AFAIK the gnome-power-manager race condition was patched for Lucid. [23:02] (Holy crap Lucid boots fast) [23:02] 10 second boot? [23:02] holmser: I have no idea where to go else with this perhaps someone else would [23:02] dsv: you use smaller bitrate [23:02] Im gonna time it right now. [23:02] Eklmu5: What race condition? Can you provide some more information please? [23:02] histo: isn't it maddening? I am at a loss now. [23:03] I've been working on this for 3 days, and there seems to be no solution... or even a diagnosable problem [23:03] brontosaurusrex, how? [23:03] Eklmu5: I have the exact some problem with Archlinux... [23:03] histo: thank you for your help. [23:03] maginot: can you chick this so you know what I have tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1442883 [23:04] vieira: it had to do with g-p-m not syncing correctly and brought about that systray pop-up that read something like: session active, not inhibited, screen idle. [23:05] hi there folks, having a bit of a 'mare trying to multiboot osx and linux... I have grub installed to the / partition of linux which is on /dev/sda4, I've set the boot flag in gparted for that partition also [23:05] AFK gonna make breakfast [23:05] now, the 1st partition /dev/sda1 - which is fat32 (EFI) for OSX - has auto-changed its flag to msftres... which I gather is fixable from within osx. Only thing is... now during boot I get a black screen with a flash underscore. Nothing boots at all. I don't see a grub menu. any ideas?

[23:10] maginot: ok sorry but I remember I searcher for other res value and found nothing I'll see wait a sec please [23:10] Jork: flac works out of the box i think [23:10] Jork: install ubuntu-restricted-extras [23:10] flac is in restricted extras? yow!

[23:18] bahaa, change to 1024 768 [23:18] c3l, gimp is raster based [23:18] synack, thanks [23:18] c3l, but it can save work with svg files [23:18] brontosaurusrex:yeah gmail account [23:18] c3l, np [23:19] lucid [23:19] synack, aah now I get it! [23:19] n [23:19] !webmin | cp [23:19] cp: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [23:19] Daniturn: ubuntu+1 [23:19] maginot: but in yours it's 640*480?? [23:19] synack: Well i wanna install a software called jetty... aptitude only has version 5.5.. i wanna have 6.x.. [23:20] im just getting bug out im in there now [23:20] !ebox [23:20] ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox [23:20] Daniturn: Yeah well I tried helping you once earlier and you were a bit snappy so...\ [23:20] bahaa, yes, I don't use tty. And don't forget to use a "x" not an "*" [23:20] maginot: how is it in your computer (desktop or laptop?) [23:20] alguien de mexico [23:21] bahaa, desktop, and I have a 24" display ;X [23:21] Squarism, have check for a ppa? Or looked on the homepage for a deb? Or tried compiling the source as a last resort? [23:21] maginot: ok sorry [23:21] s/check/checked [23:21] synack: ppa.. i dunno what that is? [23:21] hi, someone know gtkmm? [23:21] bahaa, normally if I want a bigger framebuffer I change on grub menu to vga=791 or whatever I will need [23:21] synack: You suffer from OCD? s/suffer/suffered [23:21] maginot: where? [23:22] maginot: I'll try changing 00_header === Seahorseruler_ is now known as Seahorseruler [23:22] If I'm running xvfb on an ubuntu server, is there any way to remotely watch the session? [23:22] maginot: but how can I update it should I reboot? [23:22] bahaa, on grub menu, that which you choose ubuntu to load in the kernel line... yes, never change grub.cfg manually, its generated by the files inside /etc/grub.d [23:22] bahaa, yes, just reboot. [23:23] LinuxGuy2009, yeah, yeah I do [23:23] * synack truns the light switch on - off - on - off [23:23] maginot: I don't know how to change it from there so I change it manually (I'll change 00_header) [23:23] lol [23:23] maginot: ok? [23:23] Is there really no way to just copy all 55 gigabytes from my hard drive to DVDRs automatically, just prompting me for another disk when necessary? [23:24] bahaa, yes, give a try [23:24] maginot: then reboot? [23:24] bahaa, yes [23:24] ok [23:24] Darxus: 55GB/4.7GB=a lot of dvds [23:24] see you [23:24] LinuxGuy2009: I did the math, thanks :) [23:24] It's only 13 DVDs. Much less than my home computer. [23:24] Darxus: No backup drive? [23:25] LinuxGuy2009: Nope. At work. Maybe I should just copy everything up to network storage, since local hard drive storage is officially not supported. [23:25] At home of course I have a backup drive. [23:25] Darxus: What are you trying to backup anyways? [23:25] LinuxGuy2009: Everything. Want to reinstall. [23:26] Darxus: You do know you only need to backup /home correct? [23:26] LinuxGuy2009: If I only have stuff in /home, sure. [23:26] Darxus:Why would you have files elsewhere? [23:27] LinuxGuy2009: On this computer I might not. Actually, I do... just for compatibility with some software that wasn't intended to be installed on a workstation. [23:27] LinuxGuy2009: /var/www comes to mind for examples [23:27] Also, crontabs. [23:28] /usr/local/bin may have some [23:28] if i manually install an application.. where should a ubuntu purist put it? [23:28] maginot: didn't work :( [23:28] Darxus: How is it you cant use local drives but are allowed to reinstall the system. Doesnt make a lot of sense.

[23:37] bahaa, and comment GRUB_GFXMODE [23:37] if you do and you've watched too many videos then a flash player could go slow [23:37] aka, get a video accelerator [23:37] LinuxGuy2009, its biggest newspaper in my country.. safe indeed.. kjele, yeah got flash and codecs working now [23:37] ok [23:37] maginot: ok [23:38] bahaa, ah, what resolution do you want?

Most of it you see some poeple hugging [23:40] ... [23:41] rall: oooh hugging [23:41] what's a good rss feed reader for ubuntu/gnome that can show new items popup in the notification bubble? [23:41] i tried liferea but it only pops up how many new feeds are available, not the title of the items [23:41] yeah, but I would like to see the news movies coming out on my newspaper :p that spesific movie I dont care about :D [23:41] infid: firefox has built in RSS feed ability [23:41] it works here [23:41] eh, not very useful to me [23:42] LinuxGuy2009: but like i said i want it it to integrate with notify-osd [23:42] infid: good luck [23:42] kjele, on a fres install whats the steps you take to install all codecs? ubuntu 9.10 i guess? [23:43] - ! - wouldn't adding the exclamation before something that someone says just confuse people? [23:43] LinuxGuy2009: what do you mean good luck? i just said that liferea can do it, just dosn't show the info i want. so obviously it's possible and i'm hoping someone knows so they can tell me so i dont have to go trying a bunch more to finally find the one that does [23:43] rall: ubuntu-restricted-extras gets most, there 1 or 2 gstreamers that it leaves out [23:43] maginot: you are the coolest man on earth thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much [23:43] rall: ubuntu-restricted-extra does it. you might want to install ffmpeg too [23:43] have successfully installed ubuntu server 9.10 under Virtual PC on win7 - except the local display is messed up - nothing but vertical stripes on the lower 3/4 of the window. i can ssh into the VM so it's running fine. any suggestions for troubleshooting video under the VM? [23:43] infid: What do you mean, what do I mean good luck. Good luck. [23:43] maginot: it worked :)))))))))))) you really know what you talk about [23:44] hmmm maybe thats it (ffmpg) cause I got adobes flash and the restricted extras.. [23:44] bahaa, I'm glad it worked =) [23:44] maginot: I wish you were my friend man [23:44] maginot: thanks a lot [23:44] jgarbers: Virtual PC never worked really well for me, are there any video drivers for Virtual PC for linux? [23:44] kjele, how do I aptitude it to make sure I get it right? :) [23:44] LinuxGuy2009: the way you said it didnt come across like you were simply wishing me luck, "i don't know, but good luck" would have. but anyway thanks [23:44] bahaa, no problem, anytime you need, just call =) [23:44] thanks [23:44] rall: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg [23:45] ANyone knows how to get ubuntu Gnome set as Mandriva exactly 3D desktop setting and rest as mandriva [23:45] jgarbers: well given that ubuntu server does not have gui you have the same interface via ssh ;) [23:45] infid: yeah there was a bit of sarcasm yep. [23:45] acicula: it's very odd. ubuntu desktop, which runs in graphics mode (obviously), works wonderfully. the text mode installer for ubuntu server was also fine. [23:45] it's just now that the server has booted, i get this junk. [23:45] Ahmed\: sorry I don't but I want to say hi [23:45] jgarbers: weird :/ [23:45] as you say the ssh interface is exactly the same, but i'd like to be able to use it 'locally' from the win7 box too. [23:45] hi :) [23:45] kjele, Ok thanks:) Ill try that thanks for your help, and linuxguy and others too! [23:45] jgarbers: probably the frambuffer driver ? you can try to tweak the vga mode the server uses [23:45] Ahmed\: you don't often see people called Ahmed\ in such community [23:46] umm [23:46] New ! [23:46] Ahmed\: can we have a small chat? [23:46] Sure [23:46] erUSUL: and where would a rookie like me look for that... help please? [23:46] I installed latest Ubuntu and now I need help in how to setup security. I want to use Ubuntu for all my Netbanking and Credit Card login etc. What I need to do to prevent Spyware, Virus, Trojans, Makware, etc? [23:47] Malware [23:47] jgarbers: in /etc/default/grub where you see GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" add vga=791 to the string (that's for 1024x768) [23:47] TheMozart: Viruses and spyware are not really an issue in Ubuntu. Try installing programs like chkrootkit though. They help to prevent rootkit spyware which is a threat [23:47] well, from what someone told me, idk personally if it's true or not, ubuntu is open source so it's hard for a virus like that to enter into it [23:47] jgarbers: maybe for a server the default options are different [23:47] TheMozart: Keep using linux, don't do anything as root (or with sudo) that you don't need to. [23:48] jgarbers: then run « sudo update-grub » [23:48] jgarbers: and reboot [23:48] so the setting should be "quiet splash vga=791"? [23:48] o [23:48] jgarbers, actually you should edit GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vga=791" [23:48] not GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT [23:48] jgarbers: yes [23:48] ok, thanks [23:48] I do not know of any dangerous Linux viruses/worms as of yet [23:48] any exaile users on? [23:49] Hi all, a question: I once made the mistake of saving my gnome session. Although, I have disabled it (a long time age), every time I restart the system, I get the same application. Is there a cache, ... somewhere that I should remove? [23:49] calum: how does a rootkit install on my Ubuntu? [23:49] i see GRUB_TERMINAL=console commented out... if I never want the GUI should I uncomment that? [23:49] amen51: maybe save session without any apps [23:49] and where would I get a rootkit in the first place? [23:50] jgarbers: no [23:50] ok, will just go with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vga=791" [23:50] jrib, the problem is that I have for example things running in the background ... [23:50] for example, fetchmail [23:50] i would like to restart the fetchmail daemon each time a restart [23:50] amen51: Start login and close all apps then in the session properties press on the save button again. Otherwise your session is saved in .local if I remember [23:51] amen51: does gnome-session remember those things? It probably has to be a nice gnome-y app [23:51] jgarbers: that's for 1024x768 res if you want something else look a vesa modes table. [23:51] erUSUL: that's the thing... i don't want any graphic mode at all. I don't *think*. [23:51] jrib, yes it remembers fechmail, but it is in some zombie state ... [23:52] jgarbers: console with frambuffer can have resolution; why not [23:52] jrib, i have to kill the fetchmail everytime an restart it [23:52] thought it might be more likely to work in text mode. dunno. [23:52] jgarbers: you get more lines and more columns instead of the default 80x25 [23:52] amen51: well the easy way is to just kill fetchmail now and save session, no? [23:52] whee, that other fix looks like it worked [23:52] thanks very much to all [23:52] does Ubuntu for windows installer come in 64-bit? [23:52] jrib, yes that is possible [23:52] jgarbers: no problem [23:53] jrib, both i don't know what else it has saved [23:53] jrib, i want a clean solution, [23:53] Hi [23:53] I'm on ubuntu, I compile git by hand, I want to install qgit but it requires git-core package, How can I instal qgit without installing git-core package ? [23:53] i.e. return it to day one! [23:54] hey where would i find my xorg.conf? [23:54] alan`: why? [23:54] amen51: rm -r ~/config/gnome-session [23:54] amen51: rm -r ~/.config/gnome-session [23:54] alan`: /etc/X11/ [23:55] well I have a question, for whom ever knows...how do you make a personal wiki for ubuntu?

Is there any risk of damaging the disk, or creating data corruption? [23:59] amen51: You also have a autostart if you have added stuff [23:59] aar: Unlikely [23:59] aar: I should effectively be a free of state, including all processes etc
