| mdg | draginxx, dead batteries? | 00:09 |

| TGP1994 | So can anyone help me? | 00:14 |
| sistemas | hola | 00:14 |
| TGP1994 | Hi. | 00:14 |
| mdg | TGP1994, its all new to me - can I ask a question? | 00:14 |
| TGP1994 | Ok? | 00:15 |
| Pici | TGP1994: What do you mean? You want to see who/what is acessing your apache server? | 00:15 |
| bowser | knoppies, thank you! it is called scale however | 00:15 |
| TGP1994 | Pretty much, and if possible, what they're accessing, and at what speed. | 00:15 |
| knoppies | bowser, thats what I said, isnt it? | 00:15 |
| mdg | TGP1994, in essence you want something that monitors game players in a game right? | 00:15 |
| TGP1994 | Well, not quite... see, I want them to download maps from my linux box here, but I'm having a little trouble there. | 00:15 |
| knoppies | bowser, anytime. Glad I could help. | 00:16 |
| mathieu__ | Good evening. Is there any possibility for an NVIDIA display adapter to change the mode of its TV-OUT signal? | 00:16 |
| Pici | TGP1994: Well, just doing a tailf of /var/log/apache2/access.log would be a good start | 00:16 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | bowser: You werent trying to get all windows shown on the screen together and choose the one you want? | 00:16 |
| TGP1994 | Alright, I'll try that for abit, thanks. | 00:16 |
| bastid_raZor | bowser: there is a #compiz channel | 00:16 |
| knoppies | LinuxGuy2009, I thought he was trying that. | 00:16 |
| mathieu__ | I can't find anything relevant in X Server Settings which point me in any direction. | 00:16 |
| bowser | LinuxGuy2009 that wouldn't do it when they overlap, the scale plugin can do that | 00:17 |
| mathieu__ | Except on the Display tab its Mode Name is 'nvidia-auto-select' | 00:17 |
| knoppies | bowser, the downside to using the scale plugin, is that if a window is minimized, its not shown. | 00:17 |
| TGP1994 | So Pici, is tailf supposed to notify me when that file is changed? | 00:18 |
| hanasaki | how can I get the sound volumen control back on the gnome panel? its gone | 00:18 |
| knoppies | hanasaki, right click on the panel, choose add to panel, and look for it in the list. | 00:18 |
| Pici | TGP1994: it'll scroll when the file is updated. | 00:18 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | bowser: scale plugin just allows compiz to allow you to resize windows. | 00:18 |
| knoppies | LinuxGuy2009, not on my setup. | 00:18 |
| TGP1994 | Hmm... I just accessed my website, but nothing happened in the terminal running tailf. | 00:18 |
| Pici | TGP1994: Try tail -F instead then | 00:19 |
| knoppies | LinuxGuy2009, it is a window picker for me. | 00:19 |
| TGP1994 | tailf -F? | 00:19 |
| Pici | TGP1994: tail -F /var/log/apache2/access.log | 00:19 |
| hanasaki | knoppies: I don't see it... what is the specific name? | 00:19 |
| TGP1994 | ok | 00:19 |
| bowser | knoppies, I see | 00:20 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Oh thats right. Thats what I was trying to think of. Uhh.......yeah ;-) | 00:20 |
| bowser | LinuxGuy2009 and you can assign screen corner/shortcut to present them | 00:20 |
| mdg | hanasaki, Menu, Preferences , Sound is what was on the panel | 00:20 |
| knoppies | hanasaki, Im still using 9.04, but on mine its called "Volume Control" if you type vol in the search bar it should appear. | 00:20 |
| TGP1994 | Ermm... that's weird... apache isn't writing anything to the access.log file. | 00:20 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | bowser: Yeah | 00:21 |
| sheeps10 | hi, I upgraded the kernel image package this morning on my other pc, and now networking is broken/misbehaving, is there a file somewhere that I can delete to try and revert to defaults? | 00:21 |
| TGP1994 | @Pici: Could I possibly have misconfigured apache? | 00:21 |
| knoppies | TGP1994, I would then look at your apache settings, and see if it is being logged, and what log its writing to. | 00:21 |
| bastid_raZor | !panels | hanasaki if all else fails you can reset the panels. | 00:21 |
| ubottu | hanasaki if all else fails you can reset the panels.: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 00:21 |
| mdg | hanasaki, you can right click on the panel, add Application and navigate to Sound Preferences | 00:21 |
| TGP1994 | @Pici: Any settings file in particular? | 00:21 |
| hanasaki | mdg: knoppies right... I need the volumen applet not the configuration in the preferences | 00:21 |
| katycorp | I have a question on dual booting Ubuntu and windows 7. If I want to create a shared partition, what's the best (most stable) format to use? fat32, NTFS? | 00:21 |
| st__ | katycorp: obviously ntfs | 00:22 |
| knoppies | katycorp, Im no guru at this, but I would go with ntfs. | 00:22 |
| bastid_raZor | katycorp: i would suggest ntfs | 00:22 |
| MikeH_ | Hi guys, I'm using Ubuntu netbook edition, I've enabled GDM with update-rc.d gdm defaults 30, it started on the next boot, but hasn't started since | 00:22 |
| FF666 | fat32 is useless | 00:22 |
| MikeH_ | any suggestions? | 00:22 |
| bowser | LinuxGuy2009 btw viewport=desktop? | 00:22 |
| mdg | hanasaki, oh. Not sure if the sound icon you can add to the panel is the same app | 00:22 |
| hanasaki | mdg: its not.. but launches it | 00:22 |
| katycorp | I had read some posts that it was more stable than NTFS in terms of ubuntu reading/writing to it | 00:22 |
| katycorp | but I guess it's since been resolved | 00:23 |
| hanasaki | bastid_raZor: hmmm tried gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel still no sound control | 00:23 |
| TGP1994 | @Pici: There only seems to be an option for this VHosts access log file. | 00:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | hanasaki, did you by change try to remove Pulse from your system? | 00:23 |
| bowser | knoppies, does viewport simply mean desktop? | 00:23 |
| TGP1994 | @Pici: Do you know where I can find the option for general access logging? | 00:23 |
| vcollett | hey | 00:23 |
| Pici | TGP1994: It should be enabled by default. | 00:23 |
| st__ | is there a way to make ubuntu smaller? or I have to seek another distro? | 00:23 |
| Pici | TGP1994: Is Apache actually serving pages to you? | 00:23 |
| knoppies | bowser, I think so. It might be referring to if you have multiple display monitors attached. | 00:24 |
| hanasaki | ZykoticK9: no. but.. I am tempted to... CD sound sucks and skps through pulse | 00:24 |
| TGP1994 | @Pici: Yes, I can access them. | 00:24 |
| mdg | Fishscene, any luck? | 00:24 |
| TGP1994 | @Pici: Although I remember reading in the log (before I cleared it) that apache was segfaulting... if it does, could it somehow be cached where it serves the pages regardless if it's running or not? | 00:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | hanasaki, ok i was just asking - as removing Pulse will remove the volume control from panel. Good luck. | 00:24 |
| Pici | TGP1994: If this is a separate vhost, you may be getting entries in /var/log/apache2/other_vhosts_access.log | 00:25 |
| Pici | TGP1994: I'm not sure what the criteria for the separation of logfiles is though. | 00:25 |
| bowser | knoppies, okey, I came from KDE, there's a lot of settings in compiz... | 00:25 |
| mathieu__ | katycorp: I use both Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 6.1 at the same system and accessing an NTFS partition for my documents without any problems on both operating systems. | 00:25 |
| TGP1994 | Pici: Ya, nothing in there either. | 00:25 |
| TGP1994 | Weird. | 00:25 |
| knoppies | bowser, yea I know. I love it. You could sit tweaking them for weeks. | 00:25 |
| mathieu__ | of which that partition is formatted using default Windows settings | 00:25 |
| st__ | mathieu__: except ubuntu screwing up file permissions? | 00:26 |
| mathieu__ | st: not that I know of | 00:26 |
| alesan | hey | 00:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | mathieu__, Windows 6.1 eh? Haven't heard of that version before. I'm assuming you mean Vista :) | 00:26 |

| alesan | it's so confusing, every Ubuntu version changes this | 00:27 |
| mdg | Fishscene, how old is your computerA? | 00:27 |
| bowser | knoppies, LOL that's why I'm trying Gnome, to not tweak for weaks .) so far the Lucid seems more polished nonetheless | 00:27 |

| knoppies | LawG, does your HP laptop support CPU frequency scaling? | 00:28 |
| Pici | st__: smaller? | 00:28 |
| mathieu__ | st__: uninstall stuff you don't need and it probably will free some disk space if that is what you mean | 00:29 |
| LawG | knoppies: I believe so | 00:29 |
| stercor | What's the package name for the apache web server, preferably with PHP? | 00:29 |
| Pici | st__: Start with the minimal CD and only add what you want? | 00:29 |
| Pici | !minimal | 00:29 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 00:29 |
| st__ | in terms of disk size, I have just a base system + X + some basic stuff-- not even a gnome and it's 1.7GB | 00:29 |
| nintnint | Crunchbang 9.04 is based on ubuntu and is very lightweight. | 00:29 |
| SuperMiguel | is UCP staring to pick up? | 00:30 |
| mathieu__ | and you care about using disk space ? | 00:30 |
| knoppies | LawG, I suggest you look at top (or htop) and see if something is causing it to use the higher frequency? | 00:30 |
| knoppies | LawG, on my setup, its xmms2d that does that, so I have to kill it if Im not using it. | 00:30 |
| LawG | knoppies: does that run off a normal install of Karmic? I'm on windows right now but I'll reboot and try that | 00:31 |
| knoppies | LawG, idk, I just installed 9.04 again, and had to install it myself. | 00:32 |

| fission6 | hey, is it possible to get itunes running on ubuntu/wine? | 00:36 |
| knoppies | fission6, I dont know why you would want to use iTunes, in my opinion it is one of the worst (and slowest) media players around. | 00:36 |
| Yerzriknot | OK, I've got what might be a stupid question. If I install the 10.04 beta will it update eventually to the complete version? | 00:37 |

| st__ | Yerzriknot: yes | 00:37 |
| fission6 | it is, but how else can i get music and crap onto my iphone, i dont want it as a media player | 00:37 |
| mathieu__ | I recently start using Ubuntu and its integrated Synaptic application manager is a bless... install and removal of applications (and its dependencies) is a piece of cake with that | 00:37 |
| Yerzriknot | So is it stable enough to install? | 00:38 |
| fabio333 | <knoppies>: the only way to get music on a ipod suffles was itune | 00:38 |
| fabio333 | <Yerzriknot>: not yes i suppoe but i0m running it now withot problem | 00:38 |
| st__ | Yerzriknot: yes... but you'll update each signle package eventually | 00:38 |
| fission6 | so is there no hope to place / manage music on ubuntu/wine/ | 00:38 |
| mdg | who was asking about minimal install? | 00:38 |
| knoppies | fission6, you could take a look at the Linux Alternative Project. I remember reading a report somewhere that (I think it was lucid) supported the iPod touch straight out of the box. fission6 All I can suggest is you google it, have a look on the ubuntu forums, and then give it a shot. | 00:39 |

| EdgEy | Hello, is there a way for me to check all files that are currently in use? | 00:51 |
| rsr | israelito_solito, you should probably bakup that drive since it is in an imminent fail | 00:51 |
| Snadder | fabio333, so which encoder option should I use then? | 00:51 |
| EdgEy | For example, show the music file I'm playing, + binaries running and so on | 00:51 |
| Snadder | like.. -vcodec libx264 am I using now. | 00:51 |
| fabio333 | Snadder>: try with libxvid | 00:51 |
| fabio333 | or mpeg4 | 00:51 |
| israelito_solito | ok. thanks | 00:51 |
| mdg | anyone have any weatherunderground scripts to gather info? | 00:52 |
| Snadder | fabio333, unknown encoder. | 00:52 |
| rsr | EdgEy, do you mean system monitor? | 00:52 |
| EdgEy | rsr, that only shows running processes | 00:52 |
| fabio333 | Snadder>: use -vodec mpeg4 | 00:53 |
| EdgEy | There is a terminal command that shows what files are currently in use I think | 00:53 |
| rsr | EdgEy, maybe ps aux on the terminal | 00:53 |
| mathieu__ | Someone who has experience in forcing TV-OUT format for NVIDIA? In which section should I add this: Option "TVOutFormat" "COMPOSITE" | 00:53 |
| rsr | now im not sure if it also shows only processes | 00:53 |
| EdgEy | rsr, nah i don't want the process list | 00:53 |
| laptop_ | Hello, where can I find /etc/inittab in Ubuntu? This Linux tutorial says it should exist, but I can't find it. | 00:54 |
| mathieu__ | (in X server, from http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8178/README/appendix-h.html) | 00:54 |
| EdgEy | rsr, think I might have found it anyway, 'lsof' | 00:54 |
| EdgEy | :) | 00:54 |
| rsr | nice | 00:55 |
| fabio333 | <laptop_>: /etc/init | 00:55 |
| Snadder | fabio333, now I get unknown audio encoder libfaac. And I have libfaac installed"! | 00:56 |
| mdg | laptop: in a console type: locate inittab | 00:56 |
| MikeH_ | is there an onscreen keyboard built into ubuntu anywhere? | 00:56 |
| fabio333 | Snadder>: this is not your lucky day | 00:56 |
| Snadder | fabio333, this is working on debian. | 00:57 |
| mdg | MikeH_, look in 'Assistive Technologies i.e.,menu, preferences and there is one there | 00:57 |
| thebruce | hey fellas what do you use for vnc/remote control on ubuntu? | 00:57 |
| Snadder | fabio333, got any audio encoder to use? | 00:57 |
| fabio333 | try with libmp3lame | 00:57 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: thats where I'm looking | 00:57 |
| rsr | thebruce, there is a built in application for that | 00:57 |
| MikeH_ | but I don't see it? | 00:57 |
| thebruce | rsr | 00:57 |
| thebruce | yes i know | 00:57 |
| laptop_ | locate inittab shows a listing for a man entry and one under /usr/lib .. highly doubt that's what i'm looking for | 00:57 |
| fabio333 | <laptop_>: /etc/init | 00:58 |
| rahduke | does anyone wanna help me or what? I've been in this room at least 20 times looking for help with the same problem and people just ignore me. I'm really getting fed up!!! | 00:58 |
| mdg | MikeH_, I can't think of the name of iat the moment - let me look in synaptic | 00:58 |
| darksider | does anyone know a thing or two about making a .deb installer? i have made a .deb to install my toolkit but it doesn't actually do anything...do i NEED to specify the stuff in postinst and prerm scripts? do i define in there where to copy my scripts to upon installation? | 00:58 |
| rahduke | im not asking some question that is rocket science im sure someone here knows the answer | 00:58 |
| rahduke | its total nonsense | 00:58 |
| mathieu__ | Hmm... I should ditch my tree of stupidity. Appendix D contained the answer. Never mind. | 00:59 |
| fabio333 | /etc/inittab is for old-timers : no more in ubuntu | 00:59 |
| darksider | rahduke, people aren't ignoring you- maybe nobody knows the answer? | 00:59 |
| darksider | or maybe nobody has the time to help | 00:59 |
| t_pol | hey there i would like to post binaries in the newsgroup could you give me the name of a software that can do that? | 00:59 |
| j3rg | yo | 00:59 |
| j3rg | wats up | 00:59 |
| rahduke | WHEN I MINIMIZE STUFF THE ANIMATION HAS it minimize to my top panel not my Docky Dock | 00:59 |
| darksider | all i know is that bitching about it isn't going to help you get helped | 00:59 |
| rahduke | does that make any sense to anyone? | 00:59 |
| mdg | MikeH_, its called gok | 00:59 |
| darksider | nope | 00:59 |
| fission6 | so how are people managing their iphones content on ubuntu | 00:59 |
| laptop_ | fabio333, how can I find out what runlevel ubuntu starts in, and how can I change that? there must be a replacement for it | 00:59 |
| j3rg | anyone in here is a video camera junkie | 00:59 |
| j3rg | ? | 01:00 |
| rahduke | darksider: that doesnt make sense to u ? | 01:00 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: is it there by default? | 01:00 |
| mdg | MikeH_, that is if you are using gnome | 01:00 |
| Kre10s | so I have a 14.7Mb NEF image that opens up as 160X120 in gimp... how is this possible? Fspot show much higher resolution | 01:00 |
| Snadder | fabio333, didnt work with libmp3lame | 01:00 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: I believe so, I'm actually using Netbook edition | 01:00 |
| mdg | MikeH_, there is at the login window - not sure what that is | 01:00 |
| rahduke | darksider: I'm using the sidekick animation in compiz for minimization, for watever reason sometimes the animation looks as if its minimizing to my panel instead of my dock, its a ticky tack thing but its really effing annoying | 01:00 |
| aj00200 | Can anyone recommend a graphical undelete tool? | 01:01 |
| fabio333 | <Snadder>: so use mp2 | 01:01 |
| fabio333 | <laptop_>: use runlevel command in order to know what runlevel you are in | 01:01 |
| darksider | rahduke, sorry but i have a big problem myself with something more important to me | 01:01 |
| rsr | rahduke, google it | 01:01 |
| darksider | yeah, try google | 01:01 |
| rahduke | darksider: ill fix ur problem, what is it? | 01:01 |
| CloudLevi | So...I has a little problem. My CD drive's out, externals don't work, I just got done installing this from Windows through UltraISO, and now I need to repartition my hard drive considering I *THOUGHT* this would be a temporary install so I could get a permanent one up and running. | 01:02 |
| rahduke | rsr: google what | 01:02 |
| rsr | rahduke, nevermind | 01:02 |
| rahduke | how can google help me i can barely explain the problem | 01:02 |
| CloudLevi | Or I just need my optical drive working =/ | 01:02 |
| Snadder | fabio333, that works.. but this wont be h264.. | 01:02 |
| Snadder | I assume | 01:02 |
| darksider | rahduke, im trying to make a .deb installer to install my toolkit onto the comp of whoever wants to have my toolkit. but i cant get the .deb to do anything. it syas its installed but doesnt do anything | 01:02 |
| onats | hey guys, i upgraded my thunderbird to 3.0, now i lost all my emails. i think it overwrote some of the files coz i was running two versions at some time | 01:02 |
| rahduke | darksider: what kind of toolkit? | 01:02 |
| Snadder | fabio333, Its working with SVN-r20602 (debian lenny multimedia.org mirror) but not SVN-r19352-4:0.5+svn20090706-2ubuntu2, | 01:03 |

| mdg | MikeH_, there is gnome onscreen-keyboard you can activate via assistive devices | 01:03 |
| fabio333 | Snadder>: you need the latest version like the one i'm using | 01:03 |
| darksider | rahduke, just a mixture of different scripts and apps i have made. currently just contains my backup and restoring system | 01:03 |
| CloudLevi | help? e-e | 01:03 |
| Snadder | fabio333, and how do I get that precompiled for ubuntu 9.10? | 01:03 |
| rahduke | darksider: how are you creating the .deb? | 01:03 |
| mdg | MikeH_, look in Assistive Technologies and choose preferred applications and then you can choose to enable Gnome on-screen keyboard | 01:04 |
| darksider | rahduke, with dpkg - can you help me? | 01:04 |
| darksider | using 'dpkg -b /source/tree output.deb' | 01:04 |
| mdg | MikeH_, make sure you toggle the "enable assistive techonologies" box to have a checkmard | 01:05 |
| rahduke | darksider: sounds right to me.... | 01:05 |
| mdg | MikeH_, then you need to lot out and back in | 01:05 |
| * CloudLevi facedesks. | 01:05 | |
| rahduke | darksider: since i dont know what your packaging its tough to determine if i could help | 01:05 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: I've done that, but under preferred applications, I only have visual and mobility | 01:05 |
| MikeH_ | mobility is set to onboard and run at start | 01:05 |
| darksider | rahduke, do i NEED to specify postinst & prerm SCRIPTS to install my package, because i still can't run it after installing | 01:05 |
| fabio333 | Snadder>: the version from medibuntu "is built with the "risky" option, to enable mp3/mp4/h264/amr support" .... | 01:05 |
| rahduke | darksider: if your packaging scripts you do | 01:06 |
| mdg | MikeH_, Under Mobility? | 01:06 |
| shox | hi | 01:06 |
| darksider | rahduke, where will the .deb install the contents of it to ? | 01:06 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: yes | 01:06 |
| Snadder | fabio333, ok.. Ill try that | 01:06 |
| mdg | MikeH_, Accessibility Tab, under Mobility? | 01:06 |
| fabio333 | <Snadder>: not sure, that was on old version... | 01:07 |

| CloudLevi | =-= | 01:07 |

| ToStItOs | Status if you are here I have questions | 01:18 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: didn't see your problem | 01:18 |
| doctorZeus | I've been running ubuntu 9.1 for a week or so now, and thinking about trying out xubuntu. Does this channel support (not kde or gnome related) xubuntu questions? I guess I'm trying to determine just how different the two are..I understand that there is also a #xubuntu channel | 01:19 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: no one did ... e-e | 01:19 |
| SuperMiguel | when the kernel chashes the memory does it really make the system run faster? like will i see a speed improvement from 8gb to 16gb of ram?? | 01:19 |
| foxmulder881 | Beyondinferno, we all started somewhere. ;-) | 01:19 |
| Gnea | !ask | CloudLevi | 01:19 |
| ubottu | CloudLevi: 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. :-) | 01:19 |
| Beyondinferno | i just got done switching my home server over to karmic and my main desktop aswell | 01:19 |
| fabio333 | Snadder, http://blog.taragana.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/avidemux.jpg | 01:19 |

| Gnea | CloudLevi: but feel free to ask again | 01:20 |
| mdg | MikeH_, http://code.google.com/p/live-android/ | 01:20 |
| Snadder | fabio333, I need to do it by command line. | 01:20 |
| Gnea | Beyondinferno: how are you configuring samba? | 01:20 |
| mdg | MikeH_, you can try an android USB | 01:20 |
| knoppies | raul, Ive found some things with google, dont know if its promising, can I PM you? | 01:20 |
| sloopy | Beyondinferno, and the issue is? | 01:20 |
| Beyondinferno | I've got it setup using the gui and have the shares set as "share" | 01:20 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: My CD/DVD drive is dead =/ Windows 7 was giving me Code 13 and Linux is reading -nothing- from it... then there's the little issue that I ran a Linux In Windows installation and now have only 3 gigs of HDD partition space because I expected it to be a temporary install in hopes that it would restore my optical drive. Externals don't work either... | 01:21 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: its not that simple, this device uses EFI, and a 32bit framebuffer - people have it booting, just need to figure touchscreen and wifi support | 01:21 |
| fabio333 | Snadder, http://avidemux.org/admWiki/index.php?title=Command_line_usage | 01:21 |
| Gnea | Beyondinferno: what is "the gui", exactly? | 01:21 |
| CloudLevi | ubottu: Yeah...I tried just asking. =/ no response | 01:21 |

| mdg | MikeH_, you say it has a USB port, only one? | 01:21 |
| foxmulder881 | Beyondinferno, you mean it's not sharing even though you have sets the files to share? | 01:21 |
| raul | knoppies I'm sorry, but... what is PM? | 01:21 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: so you have a hardware problem, not a software problem? | 01:21 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: yes | 01:21 |
| knoppies | raul, /msg you | 01:22 |
| omegadarkest | ubuntu 9.10 vid card is a geforce 6800 xt. When i try to install the picture is all lines, I tried xdriver=vesa but no luck any idea? | 01:22 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: software...registry of all things | 01:22 |
| MikeH_ | but that runs the usb stick, which is its primary drive | 01:22 |
| Beyondinferno | Gnea, the gui setting program (can't remmeber the name ATM) | 01:22 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: Ubuntu doesn't have a registry, windows does. | 01:22 |
| sloopy | Beyondinferno, all the shares have unique names? you dont have several disks labeled 'share' ? | 01:22 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: Code 13 means "configuration in the registry is corrupt or missing" =/ which is retarded | 01:22 |
| Beyondinferno | foxmulder: yes | 01:22 |
| mdg | MikeH_, wonder if you could use a USB hub so you can have a USB keyboard, but does it have a card slot.... | 01:22 |
| Beyondinferno | sloopy: yeah they do | 01:22 |
| foxmulder881 | Your server is obviously not allowing access for some reason. | 01:22 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: let's back away from usage of the r-word, please? how is this an Ubuntu issue? | 01:22 |
| raul | knoppies yes... please | 01:22 |
| === cozziemoto is now known as coz_ | ||
| MikeH_ | mdg: yes, I can use a usb hub, but it needs to be powered one, and I don't have one :/ | 01:23 |
| mdg | MikeH_, did it come with an operating system? | 01:23 |
| MikeH_ | I'll need to buy one | 01:23 |
| foxmulder881 | Beyondinferno, can you access the client boxes from your server? | 01:23 |
| Beyondinferno | 1 sec i'll check | 01:23 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: Yes, it comes with its own linux based os with a flash based front end, it doesn't do much though | 01:23 |
| sloopy | Beyondinferno, each filesystem you share needs a different name | 01:23 |
| === coz_ is now known as cozziemoto | ||
| Gnea | Beyondinferno: I suggest installing and using SWAT to configure samba with, at some point | 01:23 |
| mdg | MikeH_, wow, that's kind of a pickel you are in.... let me think | 01:24 |
| Beyondinferno | sloopy, sorry i worded that poorly. They all have unique names | 01:24 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: There is no way around it really, apart from getting a usb hub | 01:24 |
| Beyondinferno | from the server i can see everything fine | 01:24 |
| Beyondinferno | and access it as well | 01:25 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: This brick computer was working fine until I got Win7...then I got the Release Candidate in 09 and my DVD functionality dropped. It picked up Oblivion and Shivering Isles some of the time, but after I downloaded the hardware manufacturer's driver and registry update when I upgraded to the Win7 retail, the optical drive completely BRICKED | 01:25 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: If I can be bothered, I can pull it apart, unplug the usb wireless that is internal, plug the keyboard into that, then run a cat5 for network while i setup the onscreen keyboard | 01:25 |
| MikeH_ | but I really can't be bothered now :P | 01:25 |
| MikeH_ | I'm just going to buy a hub | 01:25 |
| Beyondinferno | i don't see the server at all in network just in windows network etc. | 01:25 |
| Beyondinferno | from the client | 01:25 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: who built the computer in the first place? | 01:25 |
| foxmulder881 | I wonder what you done that's different on the server as opposed to your clients?!? | 01:25 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: In -and- out of Windows...and the wonderful thing wouldn't even take a USB external... now I'm having the same problem in Ubuntu... | 01:25 |

| mdg | MikeH_, you would pull it apart? | 01:26 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: so no... | 01:26 |
| Beyondinferno | is there an easy way to start from scratch with the samba settings? | 01:26 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: I already have | 01:26 |
| hoban | hello, can someone tell me what package is responsible for the plymouth splash? mine shows the kubuntu splash and while I have both ubuntu and kubuntu desktop installed, I'd like the ubuntu splash | 01:26 |
| MikeH_ | I had to to install UNR | 01:26 |
| nintnint | Advice: I try to install majesty, its a game. I go to the iso dir and do '. setup.sh' and get something that flashes tool not found then the terminal closes. | 01:26 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: It was Vista native anyway, so the software warranty died when I went with the Win7 beta in early '09 | 01:27 |
| foxmulder881 | Beyondinferno, probably. But I'm no samba expert as my server runs WIndows. | 01:27 |
| Beyondinferno | i've been doing ALOT of trying and may have just totally mucked it up | 01:27 |
| === coz_ is now known as cozziemoto | ||

| === running_rabbit07 is now known as Elmer_Fud | ||
| === zz_FeiRuoWa is now known as FeiRuoWa | ||
| foxmulder881 | AlienDK, cd / as su | 01:27 |
| bsmith093 | basically so i can get them to use encryption with as little hassle as possible | 01:28 |
| Beyondinferno | i was thinking it might be a port issue but port 139 is open on the server | 01:28 |
| Gnea | Kre10s: cheers | 01:28 |
| Beyondinferno | and it's lan ip is static | 01:28 |
| CloudLevi | AlienDK: Hehe...that one's fun. You boot up terminal, punch in "sudo passwd root", set a password, log in as root, and have fun. | 01:28 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: what about a thumbdrive? | 01:28 |

| mdg | MikeH_, back at the Assistive technologies - your only option was onboard keyboard in the Preferred application> Accessibility Tab,Mobility section? | 01:28 |
| CloudLevi | AlienDK: I -just- got done having to do it myself. lol | 01:28 |
| bsmith093 | cloudlevi is that really that east | 01:28 |
| foxmulder881 | Beyondinferno, can you access it via //ipaddress/sharename in terminal? | 01:28 |
| bsmith093 | easy to bypass the login | 01:28 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: that's wrong. sudo -i works just as well and doesn't create a security hole | 01:28 |
| distatica | I'm not crazy, this is a valid scp command, right? ahiscox@netbook:/var/lib/docdump$ scp docdump-0.1.1.tar.gz fnadmin@10.0.0.222 | 01:29 |
| MikeH_ | mdg: nothing said keyboard | 01:29 |
| CloudLevi | bsmith093: Yes. Easy, but it's horribly roundabout... | 01:29 |
| MikeH_ | it was just an option called "onboard" under mobility | 01:29 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: Security hole? e-e; | 01:29 |
| distatica | it just exits, 0 code, nothing copied. | 01:29 |
| distatica | ssh works. | 01:29 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: just don't give out that sort of advice again in here, please. | 01:29 |
| mdg | MikeH_, what does your accessibility tab show for Visual and Mobility? | 01:30 |
| Beyondinferno | foxmulder881, nope.... | 01:30 |

| AlienDK | I know what sudo is :) | 01:31 |
| foxmulder881 | It's obviously a samba issue or config setting somewhere. But like I said, I'm no samba expert. | 01:31 |
| AlienDK | basicly :P | 01:31 |
| Beyondinferno | well, hell.... | 01:31 |
| distatica | Myrtti: *facepalm* of course. Thanks. | 01:31 |
| CloudLevi | AlienDK: 'till today I only knew of sudoKU | 01:31 |

| shiro_ | what's the newest linux kernel under ubuntu ? I'm waiting for the 2.6.33 | 02:13 |
| bigtom21485 | shiro_: what do we get that we didnt have before? | 02:13 |
| crashdata | but this doesnt make sense cause some of this model are ship with linux in it | 02:13 |
| bigtom21485 | crashdata: you're venturing into unknown territory for me | 02:13 |
| sirninja | bigtom21485: I've been doing that and it helps, but is there a way for it to automatically switch to powersave mode when on battery power and I can adjust it up as needed? | 02:13 |
| crashdata | bigtom21485, k np | 02:14 |
| shiro_ | bigtom21485: a driver for a marvell yukon NIC, the driver is already available but you have to compile it yourself each time a new kernel is installed | 02:14 |
| bigtom21485 | siminja: you'll wanna google that because theres several ways to do it. linux defaults to run "on demand," i prefer performance because i have a double-capacity battery | 02:14 |
| bigtom21485 | siminja: *"performance" | 02:15 |
| jasonjm | have a email question | 02:15 |
| === pat__ is now known as random75 | ||
| jasonjm | wondering if anyone might be able to answer | 02:15 |
| sirninja | bigtom21485: I'll look into that. Just curious, how much battery life do you get with yours? | 02:15 |
| shiro_ | can anyone post the result of 'uname -r' on ubuntu ? | 02:16 |
| random75 | I am trying to make it so users and read and write files to a mounted FAT32 partition and it isn't working. Is chmod 777 -R /mountpoint the right command? | 02:16 |
| bigtom21485 | sirninja: i get an hour or two, but im always working on stuff and its running full-speed all the time...i dont like worrying about it speeding up and slowing down so i jsut set it run fast so its always ready for whatever i throw at it | 02:17 |
| jasonjm | -r will tell what kern your using | 02:17 |
| shiro_ | random75: not sure fat32 has the same rights system as other filesystem in the unix world | 02:17 |
| jasonjm | will be different depending on your arch and or vm or not | 02:17 |
| random75 | shiro_, do you know how I would make it read/write than? | 02:17 |
| bigtom21485 | sirninja: i would definately recommend a higher-capacity battery from ebay or craig's list | 02:17 |
| jasonjm | fat32 has diff rights | 02:18 |
| sirninja | bigtom21485: I currently have a 9 cell... I by no means have a "short" battery life. I just want to maximize what I get | 02:18 |
| random75 | jasonjm, how would I make it read/write? | 02:18 |
| shiro_ | random75: you may have to create an interface suid root, as far as I know only root can write on mounted fat32 partitions | 02:18 |
| hiexpo | hello all | 02:19 |
| jasonjm | random75, stick with fstab | 02:19 |
| shiro_ | random75: if you let gnome mount the device, your local user can write on it too. | 02:19 |
| random75 | jasonjm, I have it auto-mounting in fstab, but I can't write to the partition | 02:19 |
| ziesemer_ | Maybe, where is xorg.conf under xbuntu ? | 02:20 |

| Snackfood | sirninja, the network card works fine and autoinstalls on newer ubuntu versions but not this one, too old i guess. Found the drivers and a guide how to install but...It doesn't work. | 02:30 |
| hiexpo | shiro_, - that gut was doing that last night and i actuallt got in trouble in the forums for posting a fix for youtube-dl got suspended | 02:31 |
| hiexpo | guy | 02:31 |
| sirninja | Snackfood: maybe install a newer kernel? I've never done anything like that before, but it might work. Is there any reason you don't want to use a newer version of ubuntu? | 02:31 |
| scott_ino2 | any transcode/mencoder users in here? It hangs using dvdrip. | 02:31 |

| Coburn | Heya peeps | 02:32 |
| hiexpo | dhanesh, do not ask people in here how to do something illegal downloading live streams could be illegal depending on policies of the site no one is going to tell you how so quit asking people to commit a crime | 02:33 |
| sirninja | Snackfood: I see. So they fix one thing and break another. This is probably off topic here, but have you tried any other linux distros? | 02:33 |
| Coburn | I'm having issues with a MacBook 6,1. Sound isn't working, and I've installed the lastest alsa backport as described in the wiki. Alsamixer says "no mixer elems" found, and I have done the alsa-base.conf model=mbp5 hack. I'm kinda on the borderline of giving up on Ubuntu, any help would be great so I can restore my sanity! :) | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: try the beta release yet? it might fix some of the issues.. | 02:35 |
| Snackfood | sirninja, Yeah I tried 9.10 just the other day, the graphics card doesn't work but the Wireless network card works :P kinda pisses one of. | 02:35 |
| Coburn | Beta release? Which one is that? | 02:35 |
| JasonGiedymin | if your macbook can do VT-X then just go with a vm like virtualbox | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: 10.04 is out in beta now.. final reelease expected near the end of april | 02:36 |
| sirninja | Snackfood: I mean have you tried a linux distro besides ubuntu? Ubuntu usually does a pretty good job with hardware support, but if it doesn't work for your hardware, there are dozens of alternatives | 02:36 |
| Coburn | Also, I got my Macbook's GeForce 9400M GPU working.... Slick as oil compiz FXs! | 02:36 |
| Coburn | Dr_Willis: I also heard the .32 kernel fixes some issues | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: I find that a lot with newerr kernels. :) | 02:37 |
| Snackfood | sirninja, Oh, no i havn't I'm not familliar with any other Linux so I'm not sure i can handle anything else. | 02:37 |
| Coburn | I just really don't like running around in circles! I got Wifi working and the GPU working, just don't want to have to update the whole thing again! :P | 02:37 |
| Coburn | Just for sound, that is | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: try the latest daily build live cd. | 02:38 |
| Snackfood | sirninja, now....I just tried something. | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: if it has an issue. file a bug report on it. Otherwise it may never get fixed. | 02:38 |
| Coburn | Dr_Willis: alright, but 700MB takes a while to download... | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: about 15 min here. :) | 02:39 |
| shiro_ | funny, irssi has just crashed because of my malloc function | 02:39 |
| Coburn | There's no LiveCD Torrent? | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: there proberly are. but yopu proberly want the latest DailyBuild. it will be the most up to date | 02:39 |
| Snackfood | sirninja, tryed typing "dmesg | grep -i 3945" just for fun to see if anything had changed. | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: Beta2 was due out today also (or tomorrow) | 02:39 |
| Snackfood | sirninja, and it has. | 02:39 |
| Coburn | Hm, okay. | 02:40 |
| Coburn | Should I upgrade my ALSA in the meantime? | 02:40 |
| Snackfood | sirninja, [ 27.265443] iwl3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG/BG Network Connection driver for Linux, 1.2.0] last time i checked it was nothing. | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: No idea on alsa upgrades. ive rarely ever had sound issues. Beta2 out today -> http://distrowatch.com/?newsid=05999 test to see if it works. | 02:40 |
| shiro_ | by the way, can someone post the output of uname -r on a up-to-date ubuntu ? | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Coburn: if nothing else.. test it to see if it works..if not..file a bug. so perhaps it will get fixed in thefinal release. | 02:41 |
| sirninja | Snackfood: Is it working now? | 02:41 |

| Coburn | Planetary, tell her to read the info on the screen. | 02:52 |

| Coburn | e2fsck / | 02:52 |
| patrik_ | Nik_, If it can locate the previous installs then yes, no problem. | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Babalabon: most netbooks are 32bit. so i imagine for quite a long time. | 02:52 |
| Coburn | Babalabon, 32bit will be around for ages... | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Babalabon: i imagine most linux disrtos will support 32bit for a VERY long time. | 02:53 |
| Nik_ | sirninja: So I shouldn't have any fears of installing 7 then (I lost my xp disk so if I lose that I'll be in sad shape | 02:53 |
| Babalabon | Ok thank you all for your input | 02:53 |
| hiexpo | i actually like 32 bit better | 02:53 |
| patrik_ | Nik_, If it cant, u might have to edit the grub manually. It's easy though. | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Babalabon: MS could drop 32bit much sooner then linux would. I would imagine. | 02:53 |

| mc_ | Planetary, ask your aunt to run X -configure as root | 02:55 |
| mc_ | should create a config file locally and say how to run it | 02:56 |
| mc_ | for test | 02:56 |
| Planetary | type 'X -configure as root' ? | 02:56 |
| mc_ | yeah | 02:56 |
| IdleOne | sudo X -configure | 02:56 |
| mc_ | it seems that /etc/X11/xorg.conf is pooched | 02:57 |
| mc_ | but could be something else | 02:57 |
| IdleOne | I doubt that X -configure as root will work | 02:57 |
| IdleOne | as a command that is | 02:57 |
| mc_ | I'mean logon as root | 02:57 |
| mc_ | then run "X -configure" | 02:57 |
| mc_ | or run "sudo X -configure" | 02:57 |
| mc_ | as IdleOne proposed | 02:58 |
| mc_ | sorry | 02:58 |
| IdleOne | mc_: I think you might need to be more precise with the commands you are asking Planetary to run. :) | 02:58 |
| IdleOne | just a suggestion | 02:58 |
| mc_ | I know ... | 02:58 |
| Planetary | would it be: sudo -i X -configure | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | I was thinking it was more complex then X -configure also.. but in THEORY just removing the xorg.conf should work also. | 02:59 |
| Circs | I have a very weird request. I'm trying to get ubuntu onto a laptop with a broken screen to use as a desktop. I have managed to get it to boot, but is there a "blind" walkthrough (hit tab 3 times, hit enter, type this) to get ubuntu UNR 9.10 going? | 02:59 |
| aframester | lol | 02:59 |
| IdleOne | Dr_Willis: I have no idea what the issue is to be honest just saw what he asked to run and noticed that it seemed to literal | 02:59 |

| ne7work | please someone help me with phpmyadmin | 03:07 |
| mc_ | Planetary, I think this was an important error message , can you quote it exactly (note: no promises I can help) | 03:07 |
| hiexpo | !ask | 03:07 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 03:07 |
| turminder | How is the amount of ram allocated to /dev/shm, /var/run, /var/lock, etc. detemined? | 03:08 |
| Banshee_ | Anybody know the answer to my question =P | 03:08 |
| turminder | it seems to be variable. | 03:08 |
| mc_ | Banshee just reinstall, good advise | 03:08 |
| mc_ | you don't wanna mess with grub | 03:09 |
| Banshee_ | Ok thanks | 03:09 |
| Circs | Is there a way to tell a laptop to only ever use the external display? | 03:09 |
| mc_ | definitely, there should be a key combination (all the IBM laptops have it at least) | 03:10 |

| Golumm | I was upgrading my ubuntu to 9.10 but suddently my network disconnected. How can I resume the upgrade??? | 03:17 |
| mc_ | Planetary, the scary thing is that X is usually pretty good at recognizing the hardware and creating working config file | 03:17 |
| mc_ | This could be a hardware issue | 03:17 |
| ToStItOs | I installed Ubuntu 9.10 in my secondary slave drive with the Windows Xp drive plugged in. One problem is Windows is not loading. I have read you can restore Windows to the bootloader. Would it be a wise decision? | 03:18 |
| randomusr_ | ToStItOs, how did you configure grub upon install? | 03:18 |
| mc_ | but obviously it run the new config (hence /root/xorg.conf.new) | 03:18 |
| IdleOne | Tohuw: that is a Lucid bug I haven't received any updates today either | 03:18 |
| IdleOne | wait till morning it will probably be pushed then to all the servers | 03:19 |
| Tohuw | ok. Hmm, why isn't Pidgin playing the highlight sound? Odd. Well, thanks. | 03:19 |
| Planetary | yaa it doesnt surprise me. I sent a care package with ram and a graphics card and xubuntu 9.10 after her windows 2000 system got infected. its a sortof goofy card but more powerful than what she had. its a radeon 7500 diablotech | 03:19 |
| IdleOne | Tohuw: see #ubuntu+1 for more support since you are running Lucid | 03:20 |
| mc_ | Planetary, hmm, why then it used a voodoo driver | 03:20 |
| mc_ | isn't it what I read? | 03:20 |
| Planetary | i mean a diablotek radeon 7500. she had a tnt2 | 03:20 |

| ToStItOs | randomusr_: I apparently did not configure it correctly you see I am not very familiar with partitioning so I screwed that up | 03:20 |
| Planetary | mc_: well she also has her resolution stuck at 800x600 and i tried to switch teh driver. stupid ati | 03:21 |
| mc_ | ooh | 03:21 |
| ToStItOs | I did not add windows to the bootloader | 03:21 |
| ToStItOs | thats what i forgot to do | 03:21 |
| mc_ | should'va edit xorg.conf | 03:21 |
| Planetary | mc_: i wonder if putting the TNT 2 in would be better even though it slower... | 03:22 |
| randomusr_ | ToStItOs, no need to be brash, just trying to help. Why not try re-installing grub? | 03:22 |
| randal | How do you update your Bios in Linux plz help | 03:22 |
| mc_ | just remember you will have to recreate xorg.conf as it's different chipset | 03:22 |
| randomusr_ | randal, um do what? | 03:23 |
| Planetary | mc_: I edited the xorg.conf file and changed the driver to vesa to radeon and it didnt seem to work | 03:23 |
| themusicgod1 | randal: why do you need to do that? | 03:23 |
| randal | randomusr_, Update my laptop bios | 03:23 |
| ToStItOs | I am just upset with the whole thing | 03:23 |
| randomusr_ | randal, most manufacturers allow you to create a bootcd or bootfloppy to flash the bios | 03:23 |
| Planetary | its one thing i miss from 7.04 is an easy way to chang ethe driver | 03:23 |
| randomusr_ | ToStItOs, do you not want assistance then? | 03:24 |
| randal | themusicgod1, It has some fixes for my wifi and booting up its a eee pc | 03:24 |
| Circs | I just purchased a wireless keyboard touchpad combo and mysteriously the touchpad works but the keyboard does not. Any thoughts? | 03:24 |
| randomusr_ | randal, are you 100% confident that you understand the risks of updating the bios? | 03:24 |
| ToStItOs | randomusr_: I do | 03:24 |
| ToStItOs | I am trying to see my options | 03:25 |
| randomusr_ | ToStItOs, being upset does nothing to fix the problem | 03:25 |
| randal | randomusr_, its usually not that hard yes i understand the risks | 03:25 |
| ToStItOs | I know I was frustrated last night | 03:25 |
| randal | randomusr_, is there a program for linux to flsh the bios or something | 03:26 |
| mc_ | from vesa to radeon? | 03:26 |
| mc_ | try ati | 03:26 |
| randomusr_ | randal, go to a windows machine and download the iso image or boot floppy for your computer then boot from that | 03:26 |
| ToStItOs | sorry for the rage | 03:26 |
| randomusr_ | or google.com/linux flash bios | 03:26 |
| mc_ | but it's best to make X create it and later just tweak things like mouse or default resolution | 03:26 |
| ToStItOs | My mind is better today | 03:26 |
| randal | randomusr_, the think is its a netbook i dont have a cd drive or floppy | 03:26 |
| mc_ | I was writing on the vim channel to you, they must have been scratching their heads wtf I'm talking about xD | 03:26 |
| randomusr_ | ToStItOs, the best way to get help is ask what you want to accomplish | 03:27 |

| randal | randomusr_, im on the asus support website i cant find any prgoram that can flash bios exept for windows | 03:30 |
| randomusr_ | ToStItOs, that's bold and cumbersome, but i guess it could work. it helps to know what you're doing | 03:30 |
| randomusr_ | randal, give me a moment and I'll see if I can pull it up | 03:31 |
| ToStItOs | that will be a problem that computer does not have the internet configured | 03:31 |

| bastid_raZor | !webmin | TGP1994 | 04:01 |

| ubottu | TGP1994: 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. | 04:01 |

| CloudLevi | Gnea: the USB startup disk creation program thing | 04:12 |
| CloudLevi | Gnea: it's got an alert icon next to my only working gigabyte USB drive | 04:12 |
| axisys | anyone know of a sharepoint like tool for ubuntu or some tool that can work directly with sharepoint? | 04:12 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: and? | 04:12 |
| crucialhoax | CloudLevi: Is the drive formatted? | 04:12 |
| airtonix | CloudLevi, it means you need to format the usb stick. | 04:12 |
| axisys | i dislike sharepoint | 04:12 |
| CloudLevi | yeah, I formatted it twice | 04:12 |
| crucialhoax | CloudLevi: Hmm... | 04:13 |
| airtonix | CloudLevi, di you use gparted to remove existing partitions and create new ones on it formatted as fat32 ? | 04:13 |
| CloudLevi | the other one won't format DXX | 04:13 |
| Gnea | CloudLevi: I don't know what the ! is supposed to mean (haven't ran into that problem) | 04:13 |
| themusicgod1 | during install a bunch of packages failed to install including libpam0g and passwd | 04:13 |
| CloudLevi | airtonix: where is that? e-e | 04:13 |
| crucialhoax | CloudLevi: After you reformetted did you unplug and replug? | 04:13 |
| CloudLevi | crucialhoax: uhhhhhh *does it* | 04:13 |
| CloudLevi | don't remember | 04:13 |
| airtonix | CloudLevi, i dont think gparted is installed by default, but you can get it with apt-get/synaptics, after installing it'll be in your system > admin menu | 04:14 |
| themusicgod1 | the problem was that update-manager had a bug in the old version(which was replaced by update-manager) so now theoretically you'd think apt should be able to successfully install those broken packages, but apt-get install --reinstall refuses to reinstall passwd | 04:14 |
| crucialhoax | Im not sure if it matters but hey, checking the simple things. | 04:14 |
| themusicgod1 | is there a way to install it anyway? | 04:14 |

| airtonix | CloudLevi, try running palimpsest. 1) alt + f2 2) palimpsest | 04:15 |

| airtonix | CloudLevi, "scann whole hardrive" ? which one are you referring to ? | 04:16 |

| Jeanvaljean | wget can only download the URLs from page 1 on the site,but page 2,page 3 can't | 04:17 |
| TGP1994 | Ok, so how do I get php working in ebox? How about ftp? | 04:18 |
| Jeanvaljean | and the page 2,page 3.....'s URLs are the same as the page 1 | 04:18 |
| themusicgod1 | should I risk restarting the system if aptitude says there's no broken packages even after update-manager failed? | 04:18 |
| greezmunkey | themusicgod1: does curl work in conjunction with wget? | 04:18 |
| themusicgod1 | greezmunkey: curl works instead of wget | 04:18 |
| CloudLevi | getting Gparted...and....for the record...that's about the last download I can get. I'm having to reinstall because I thought this was a temporary install and partitioned THREE GIGS for it DX | 04:18 |

| franl | Jef91, use "unzip -l filename" to see what's in it without extracting anything. | 04:33 |
| bastid_raZor | mazda01: where in /var/www are you going to put these files? i had the same issue until i made a symlink to the destination folder .. ~/public_www -> /var/www/photos ..on the remote box | 04:33 |

| Guest99465 | Timothy_: using Wubi? | 04:33 |
| crucialhoax | mazda01: Well if it works one way, compromise. Or wait for someone else who can assist. If it works through the terminal then what is the purpose of a gui? | 04:33 |
| Timothy_ | Yes I am | 04:33 |
| mazda01 | crucialhoax, basically use nautilus (or some other GUI) to graphically move files around on my main server downstairs. currently it's only running ssh which allows access to ALL folders on the server. because samba is only sharing come folders. I do not have a ftp server setup sharing the /var/www/ folder | 04:34 |
| CloudLevi | airtonix: the ISO isn't showing up in the list box thing | 04:34 |
| Guest99465 | When you update the linux kernel headers and you use Wubi everything gets screwed up | 04:34 |
| crucialhoax | mazda01: looks like bastid_raZor has a suggestion. | 04:34 |
| Guest99465 | You're going to have to manually boot the last working kernel | 04:34 |
| Guest99465 | and then remove the newly updated one | 04:34 |
| mazda01 | crucialhoax, because I want to see if it can be done. have you heard of winscp in windows? I am basically wondering if there is a similiar program in linux | 04:34 |
| mazda01 | bastid_raZor, i am trying to put it right in the /var/www/ folder | 04:35 |
| TGP1994 | So, does anyone have any ideas for figuring out why my php is not working? | 04:35 |
| airtonix | CloudLevi, what filesystem did you format the stick as ? what ISO are you trying to use ? | 04:35 |
| Guest99465 | The best way to run Windows 7 on the same computer as a Ubuntu install is by repartitioning, and Windows can do this. | 04:35 |
| Flannel | mazda01: FTP/SFTP/Samba/etc doesn't have a concept of "sudo", what you should do is modify your permissions to allow you to write to /var/www (adding yourself to www-data group and chowning /var/www as www-data:www-data, and g+w would be one way) | 04:35 |

| mazda01 | Flannel, is that a security risk in any way? i wonder why it's like that by default? | 04:38 |
| flansuse | Arsin: I believe they need to be equal. | 04:38 |
| Flannel | mazda01: Because www-data is only for apache, and doesn't exist by default, etc | 04:38 |
| razorbuzz | So...Anybody else have a problem with the metacity-common package that just came downstream? | 04:38 |
| flansuse | Arsin: Or it might work, but you will only get as much as the lower drive's capacity X 2. | 04:39 |
| mazda01 | crucialhoax, thanks. i realize you're trying to help but I can read, and I do understand a lot of things. you're making it seem like you think I am some kind of newbie | 04:39 |

| airtonix | findlay, are you positive ? (i dont remember ever being able to do this) I also think the lock screen is controlled by either gnome-power-manager or gnome-screensaver | 04:40 |

| TGP1994 | Flannel, how do I do the latter? | 04:42 |
| findlay | airtonix: yeah, I saw that | 04:42 |
| Flannel | TGP1994: Why do you want your html files to be treated like php files? | 04:42 |
| TGP1994 | Flannel, because I think some software may work like that. | 04:43 |
| ziesemer_ | bastid_raZor: Thanks. Having issues getting my touchpad working - was wondering if that would even be helpful. | 04:43 |
| TGP1994 | JasonGiedymin: Why not? | 04:43 |
| airtonix | findlay, how bout this ? http://www.swanson.ukfsn.org/xss/ | 04:43 |
| Flannel | TGP1994: Any software that works like that is stupid and broken. I wouldn't trust it. With that warning said (seriously, find better software), you edit /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.conf | 04:43 |
| Flannel | TGP1994: Because it means *every* html file you serve has to be parsed by php to make sure it doesn't have any php in it | 04:44 |
| TGP1994 | Flannel: Alright, thank you. | 04:44 |
| airtonix | findlay, actually im not sure that applies to karmic | 04:44 |
| crucialhoax | mazda01: I think chmod 755 should work? correct Flannel | 04:44 |
| === kc-net is now known as vuath | ||
| Flannel | TGP1994: Don't delete the php stuff, just add .html at the end | 04:44 |
| TGP1994 | Ya | 04:44 |
| === Guest66856 is now known as M2H | ||
| Flannel | crucialhoax, mazda01: change owner to www-data:www-data and give group write permissions (chomd g+w) | 04:45 |
| === M2H is now known as Sonata | ||
| TGP1994 | Flannel: So just a quick question, when I'm running with the .php extension, does any html I want to use need to be in the echo command? | 04:45 |
| mazda01 | Flannel, did all that, now stuck on useradd command. can you help? | 04:45 |
| crucialhoax | Flannel: write without read? | 04:45 |
| airtonix | findlay, ok think i found something : open gconf-editor and goto : /apps/gnome-screensaver | 04:45 |
| Flannel | crucialhoax: They should be 755 by default, so you only have to add the write | 04:45 |
| mazda01 | Flannel, i changed the group only to www-data and left the owner as root. i want to add myself to the www-data group | 04:45 |
| Flannel | mazda01: sudo adduser [youruser] www-data | 04:46 |
| mazda01 | Flannel, my permissions are now this: drwxrwsr-x | 04:46 |
| crucialhoax | So 765? as 1 is write. | 04:46 |
| Flannel | mazda01: Then you'll need to log back in again for it to take effect for this terminal (groups [youruser] will verify) | 04:46 |
| Flannel | crucialhoax: write is 2, execute is 1. | 04:46 |
| TGP1994 | Awesome, it works, thanks :) | 04:46 |
| Flannel | (read is 4) | 04:46 |
| crucialhoax | duh. haha I always confuse them. argh | 04:46 |
| Out_Cold | do I need X to use mplayer? | 04:47 |
| Flannel | crucialhoax: 775 instead of 755 | 04:47 |
| crucialhoax | correct | 04:47 |
| mazda01 | Flannel, yeah, groups doesn't show me yet. that stinks I have to log out and then back in again. i got soo much going on | 04:47 |
| Flannel | mazda01: groups should show you immediately | 04:47 |
| findlay | airtonix: you could start from here: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/NSA++GNOME+Lock+Screen?content=89014 | 04:47 |
| Flannel | mazda01: You don't need to log out, you just need to log in (and the new terminal will have you, not the already-existing ones) | 04:47 |
| TheMozart | can I install ubuntu now, or shall I wait till 29 April for new version? | 04:47 |
| mazda01 | Flannel, nope, it doesn't i did get a confirmation thought that I was added to the www-data group | 04:48 |
| Flannel | mazda01: If groups doesn't show you, you aren't successfully added | 04:48 |
| airtonix | findlay, yeah it seems the lock screen background is an aspect of a gtk theme. so you'd need a theme that has a lock screen background defined or a dedicated theme that just deals with the lock screen. | 04:48 |
| Flannel | mazda01: 'groups mazda' or whatnot, not just 'groups' | 04:48 |
| TheMozart | anyone? :) | 04:48 |
| john__ | d | 04:48 |
| crucialhoax | TheMozart: It is completely your choice. | 04:48 |
| Flannel | TheMozart: You can install now, and upgrade in a few weeks | 04:48 |
| Out_Cold | TheMozart, if you install now, don't whine about crashes.... if you wait... then don't whine about that either :p | 04:48 |
| IdleOne | TheMozart: 9.10 yes, 10.04 is still beta | 04:48 |
| mazda01 | Flannel, i exited that ssh terminal and opened a new one, now when I issue merely groups, I am in the www-data group. thanks | 04:49 |
| john__ | OFFTOPIC: so i have a toothpick jammed in my foot and i cant really get it out (im scared of pulling too hard). should i go to a doctor? what should I do? | 04:49 |
| Guest99465 | TheMozart: I had so much trouble with the beta I switched back | 04:49 |
| Flannel | mazda01: 'groups' on its own shows what your current terminal thinks, `groups username` shows what a new one would | 04:49 |
| bazhang | john__, #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:49 |
| IdleOne | john__: like you stated. offtopic | 04:49 |
| Guest99465 | john__: probably wouldn't hurt | 04:49 |

| TheMozart | can I install ubuntu now, or shall I wait till 29 April for the final new version? | 04:51 |

| mazda01 | crucialhoax, yeap, now I can use the connect to server within Places, then chose SSH as protocol. then when i type in the ip of my server and my ssh port, then hit connect, i type in my passphrase, then i see my whole server within a gui window. then I can copy and paste all I want to /var/www/ folder | 04:52 |
| dark_soul1 | SuperMiguel: so its released daily? | 04:52 |
| TheMozart | Guest99465: I can install 9.04 today | 04:52 |
| TheMozart | Guest99465: why are you saying 9.04 final is bad? | 04:53 |
| SuperMiguel | dark_soul1, depends... on new reseales yes... on 8.04 not really | 04:53 |
| Guest99465 | I'm not saying 9.04 is bad | 04:53 |
| dark_soul1 | SuperMiguel: how is security patch released for 8.04? | 04:53 |

| Guest99465 | Latest stable release that's not beta or whatever | 04:55 |
| crucialhoax | alternate is a text based installer. | 04:56 |
| TheMozart | h00k: I want alternative so I can choose to encrypt file system when I install it | 04:56 |
| TheMozart | h00k: good idea? | 04:56 |
| crucialhoax | he wants ubuntu.9.10-desktop-i386.iso.beta | 04:56 |
| crucialhoax | he wants ubuntu.9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent* | 04:56 |
| h00k | TheMozart: the regular installer can do that also :) | 04:56 |
| Guest99465 | TheMozart: the graphical install lets you encrypt the home directory too | 04:56 |
| h00k | TheMozart: since Karmic | 04:56 |

| TheMozart | crucialhoax: ah yeah lol | 04:58 |

| TheMozart | anyone know if thats possible? | 05:01 |
| IdleOne | TheMozart: you mean not have it auto login? yes | 05:01 |
| switch10_ | TheMozart: use a blank password. | 05:01 |
| TheMozart | IdleOne: yeah cause I wont need it as Ubuntu will ask me for the CRYPT passwrd as it loads | 05:02 |
| TheMozart | switch10_: i can use blan password and Ubuntu will never ask me for login username and password? | 05:02 |
| switch10_ | TheMozart: yes, but I misunderstood your question. You can setup an auto login during installation | 05:03 |

| Gletob | Flannel, Yeah but Sneakernet is a lot less efficient when your pushing to 4 other machines, all at once. | 06:16 |
| === WindPower_ is now known as WindPower | ||
| greezmunkey | omega__: look at it this way, now you can do it in seconds, and help someone else out that wants to do the same thing. It was not a waste of your time. | 06:16 |
| Flannel | Gletob: Right, which is why I asked if it were a single machine and a single time, or more and/or regularly ;) | 06:16 |
| Gletob | Oops I'm sorry Flannel, but yeah I'm planning on doing this regularly with multiple machines. | 06:17 |

| SandGorgon | hunahpu, crucialhoax I'm specifically looking for the 5ghz variety and has reasonable linux support | 06:26 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: You should check the Wiki | 06:26 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: nVidia is usually supported. By the question I assume that you are not running Linux so I do not know about wireless. | 06:26 |
| crucialhoax | greezmunkey: Agreed. | 06:26 |

| tangji | i want associate openoffice .odp file to my program,when user click odp file ,how can use my program open this file | 06:27 |
| greezmunkey | crucialhoax: I don't like looking at that wiki, most of my stuff isn't supported. It causes me great pains in the wallet. | 06:27 |
| WebRat | thats why im nervous i know how badly i can screw things up if i get them wrong | 06:27 |

| crucialhoax | Gletob: Cya :) | 06:28 |
| WebRat | what boot loader do i need to use? | 06:28 |
| crucialhoax | tangji: right click on the file and choose the open with. | 06:29 |
| hunahpu | chd: you can do it with "dd", you will need a large hard drive; equally or larger in size as your windows hard drive | 06:29 |
| WebRat | side by side with windows 7 | 06:29 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: you are talking about live cd, right? | 06:29 |
| WebRat | yep but i do want to install | 06:29 |
| StopSign | create a partition in windows then install in that part | 06:30 |
| chd | hunahpu, google "dd"? | 06:30 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: I suggest that you really dig into at least a couple of howtos before you start, just to be safe. Unless you don't care about your win7 partition. | 06:30 |
| hunahpu | chd: better, type "man dd" in your terminal | 06:30 |

| xiven | Is PostGreSQL a stand-alone Database ? | 06:31 |

| greezmunkey | WebRat: side by side, or Wubi install, there is a differance! | 06:31 |
| crucialhoax | tangji: Did you get it? | 06:31 |
| WebRat | is wubi any good? | 06:32 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: If you use wubi, it installs ubuntu without touching your system. And you can remove ubuntu from add / remove programs. | 06:32 |
| WebRat | sounds good to me | 06:32 |
| tangji | yes,i did | 06:32 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: it's ok, a bit slow - but if something goes wrong, it's easy to recover from (partitions wise) | 06:32 |
| tangji | perfect, | 06:33 |
| WebRat | does wubi come standard with ubuntu? | 06:33 |
| crucialhoax | tangji: Great | 06:33 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: it's an install option. | 06:33 |
| tangji | another question | 06:33 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: It is inside the .iso | 06:33 |
| tangji | when i open this file properties | 06:33 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: I would google wubi and use that. As I dont believe it is an install option from the Live CD. | 06:33 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: It can also be downloaded seperatly, but I woudn't useually recommend it. | 06:33 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: it's an install option...that's inside the iso! | 06:34 |
| greezmunkey | heh | 06:34 |
| tangji | have five program associate this file type,defaultly,use openoffice.org | 06:34 |
| crucialhoax | tangji: Right click on the file > choose properties > then choose the open with > choose the program you want. | 06:34 |
| hunahpu | WebRat: if you want to install using Wubi, you have to run the LiveCD in Windows, it should auto-start when you insert it while in windows; it is a good way to test Ubuntu, but a 'hard/normal' installation works better | 06:34 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: Grub 2 is the default boot loader for proper partitioned clean installs of 9.10 | 06:34 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: I installed wubi on my laptop from the wubi site. It worked great :) | 06:35 |
| tangji | but i use want in my install program ,chage this default list | 06:35 |
| tangji | what file need to chage,acchive my aim | 06:35 |
| crucialhoax | tangji: Ok, then under open with, choose the "aAdd" button | 06:36 |
| greezmunkey | crucialhoax: It worked well for me as well, I think it only took 35-40 minutes from start to finish! | 06:36 |
| tangji | no ,i want in shell script finish this job | 06:36 |
| tangji | my program have listed in open program list | 06:36 |
| crucialhoax | Yep yep. then I do not know. I guess I am not understanding =/ | 06:36 |
| tangji | but not default program | 06:36 |
| WebRat | ill google wubi now | 06:36 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: its neat. | 06:37 |

| WebRat | with wubi i can still use seperate home partition right? | 06:40 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: wubi does not touch your harddrive. It is kind of like a virtual machine. | 06:42 |
| crucialhoax | wubi's hard drive is a file | 06:42 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: not sure about that one. At the end of the day, wubi installs ubuntu into a large file that can be booted into. It's a bit wierd that way. | 06:42 |
| hunahpu | WebRat: you can very well try installing it the normal way; with wubi you won't have /home on a separate partition (which is good btw), in the end it is installed in a "virtual hard drive" | 06:43 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: That's where the performace hit comes from, but it still works well enough to get familiar with ubuntu. | 06:43 |

| WebRat | can i use multiple partitions in that drive | 06:45 |
| hunahpu | diegoo: /var/log/apache2 | 06:45 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: Wubi edits the boot loader so it can boot up Grub/Grub2, which then boots up Ubuntu. Wubi itself goes in a file in the Windows partition, and it seems you can only open your Windows files using Wubi as read only. | 06:46 |
| switch10_ | jpg: go to #ubuntu+1 if you want help with it. #ubuntu is for stable releases only | 06:46 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: Why would you want to partition it? | 06:46 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: no you don't partition Wubi, you get what you get and that's that, also there's a program that can later convert a Wubi install into real partition/s | 06:47 |
| tangji | <crucialhoax>:thank for you answer | 06:47 |
| crucialhoax | tangji: No problem | 06:47 |
| WebRat | partitioning any linux distro is a good idea if things break kill everything but the /home and data storage space and reinstall | 06:47 |
| WebRat | never loose settings or data | 06:48 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: indeed if you set up a proper partitioned install and use the manual install option so you can make seperate /home | 06:48 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: since guided installs don't do seperate /home | 06:48 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: Wubi is basically a file. If the hard drive in Wubi failed so would windows. | 06:48 |
| WebRat | will it work with wubi sebsebseb? | 06:48 |
| switch10_ | WebRat: why not just dual boot? I have never used wubi and never will. | 06:49 |
| greezmunkey | WebRat: What I did was this. Started with wubi, killed and reinstalled wbui a couple of times. Once I got the system the way I liked it, installed aptoncd, adn backed up all my configs. Once I had a dedicated install, I updated from aptoncd, and my config files, and I was good to go. That laptop is still alive today. | 06:49 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: no Wubi does not have a seperate /home and it doesn't need one, since Wubi in that kind of way, isn't like a proper install | 06:49 |
| sebsebseb | switch10_: indeed WebRat should just dual boot really | 06:49 |
| knoppies | WebRat, I agree with sebsebseb and switch10_, Just do a dual boot. If you want to trial it for a week or so, then I dont understand why you want to prevent data loss. | 06:50 |

| Banshee_ | Laptop | 06:52 |
| WebRat | been a few years since i did an install and i cant afford to break windows doing it | 06:52 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: boot Live CD, follow installer through, set up partitions in manual install, finnish instaler, done | 06:52 |
| knoppies | I sorta guessed. | 06:52 |
| hunahpu | Banshee_: what version of Ubuntu? did you make a md5sum check of your .iso file? did you test your memory? | 06:52 |
| Banshee_ | 9.10 Ubuntu, no md5, and no memory | 06:53 |
| knoppies | WebRat, what about using a separate HDD all together? | 06:53 |
| crucialhoax | WebRat: Just use wubi and be done. it is easy and painless. | 06:53 |
| sebsebseb | WebRat: back up any important data just in case, and re sizing Windows will probably go rather well. Altough if Windows 7 is like Vista when it comes to this, should let it resize itself using it's tool, or dataloss might happen. | 06:53 |
| WebRat | laptop knoppies | 06:53 |
| hunahpu | Banshee_: select the "check disk integrity" (or similar) option when you boot your LiveCD/usb pendrive; to make sure it's not corrupted, also run a memory test to make sure your RAM is not damaged. | 06:54 |
| Banshee_ | hunahpu: Ok I will do that if both check out fine what should I do? | 06:54 |
| shankar021988 | hi | 06:55 |
| hunahpu | Banshee_: if both check out fine, you may want to try the alternate CD | 06:55 |

| Rold | will I lose my data after upgrading? | 06:56 |
| switch10_ | Banshee_: yes | 06:56 |
| shankar021988 | use partition manager | 06:56 |
| sebsebseb | Rold: Which version are you currently on? | 06:56 |
| MailGon | is there a partition manager in ubuntu? | 06:56 |
| greezmunkey | Banshee_: I had a similar experience. Do you have a crt? If so plug it in, you may see your desktop there! | 06:57 |

| switch10_ | Banshee_: cathode ray tube. the opposite of an LCD | 06:58 |
| hunahpu | Banshee_: CRT stands for Cathode Ray Tube, greezmunkey means a external monitor (the old ones), you can also use a flat one though. | 06:58 |

| brijith1 | Hi all, Why mailto: doesn't support file attachment | 07:00 |
| MailGon | Well I have a USB ready with windows however, when using windows installation it doesnt recognize a linux partition, so I need to get rid of ubuntu | 07:00 |
| chd | I need to burn a bootable disc, how do I go about doing that in ubuntu? I have brasero and k3b | 07:00 |
| MailGon | But then, id need another USB with the live CD | 07:00 |
| MailGon | is this the best way to go? | 07:00 |
| hunahpu | brijith1: mailto: usually invokes your default e-mail client only | 07:00 |
| MailGon | or can I just format the drive in my ubuntu? | 07:00 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: if you got a real netbook, Windows is quite pointless on it, for example can you 3D game nope? I say pointless since other OS's such as Ubuntu will work, and are more secure | 07:00 |
| switch10_ | MailGon: yes. the partition needs to be unmounted | 07:01 |
| MailGon | Err | 07:01 |
| hunahpu | MailGon: you can delete and create partitions from the Windows Installer | 07:01 |
| greezmunkey | Banshee_: What happend if you let it boot, then hit Ctrl+Alt+F2 ? | 07:01 |
| WebRat | ok time to play with linux cya people thanks for the help | 07:01 |
| crucialhoax | switch10_: Why does MailGon need a Live CD to get rid of ubuntu? | 07:01 |
| MailGon | No I cant | 07:01 |
| MailGon | linux doesnt show up in the windows installer | 07:01 |
| brijith1 | hunahpu:on invoking I could set mail adress to send subject, mail body, But cann't set attachment .. | 07:01 |
| MailGon | so I cant install windows anywhere since theres no partition there (visually) | 07:01 |
| switch10_ | crucialhoax: he needs to have his ubuntu partition unmounted to delete it. | 07:01 |
| MailGon | it doesnt show up | 07:01 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: You can maybe with Ubuntu though. It's just delete the partiton for Ubuntu and install Windows. However some of us are wondering why you want to do that. | 07:01 |
| crucialhoax | So download gparted live cd and use that. | 07:02 |
| MailGon | Well id need ANOTHER usb though D= | 07:02 |
| shankar021988 | :) | 07:02 |
| brijith1 | hunahpu:Is is there any method to do that ? | 07:02 |
| hunahpu | brijith1: as far as I know you can't attach anything with mailto: | 07:02 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: yes the Windows installer won't detect Linux partitions properly | 07:02 |
| MailGon | yeah | 07:02 |
| brijith1 | hunahpu: :( ok | 07:02 |
| greezmunkey | crucialhoax: gparted live cd? didn't know there was such a thing... | 07:02 |
| MailGon | so.....the only way to do it is to use the live Cd on another usb then | 07:02 |

| sebsebseb | MailGon: you need something you can run gparted from really, so that's your answer. Altough I don't understand why you want Windows on there in the first place. | 07:03 |
| brijith1 | hunahpu:is there any solution other than mailto: | 07:03 |
| MailGon | linux doesnt do a lot of the stuff I want to do on windows, not that its at all relevant to the problem | 07:04 |
| greezmunkey | Banshee_: try Ctrl+alt+F3, then back by Ctrl+Alt+F7, does it even flicker? | 07:04 |
| switch10_ | windows is horrible on netbooks. so slow it hurts... | 07:04 |
| hunahpu | brijith1: usually the user who wants to send a mail would select the attachment; what do you want to do? I suppose you're building a website... you can use a form to upload/send files. | 07:04 |
| crucialhoax | MailGon: if you really want to put windows back on, download gparted live cd and put that on a USB drive using ubuntu. | 07:04 |
| MailGon | okay thnx | 07:04 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: or make a presistent USB flash drive and use that | 07:04 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: which apps do you want to run? | 07:04 |
| MailGon | gparted is an OS? | 07:05 |
| MailGon | o_O | 07:05 |
| switch10_ | MailGon: we gave you the answer. you need another USB stick, or a USB cd drive | 07:05 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: by the way net books are only meatn to be basic computers, for web browsing, a bit of typing and that's about it | 07:05 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: all the basic net book tasks, the actsual tasks, you can do in Ubuntu | 07:05 |
| jj3124 | hey guys, i just tried to edit menu.lst of my grub because everytime i want to boot into windows i need to 'edit' the boot entry before booting but i can't find the entry there | 07:05 |
| brijith1 | hunahpu:let me explain my problem. I am writing a python program. In that I am generation pdf file. I want to show the mail client with this pdf as attachment when user click a button | 07:05 |
| MailGon | sebsebseb I use my netbook for development purposes, some of my tools do not run on linux | 07:05 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon Micrsooft development tools? | 07:05 |
| hunahpu | jj3124: what version of Ubuntu are you using? | 07:05 |
| MailGon | no | 07:06 |
| rifter | !help grub2 | 07:06 |
| crucialhoax | !grub2 | 07:06 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 07:06 |
| jj3124 | hunahpu, it's xubuntu | 07:06 |
| MailGon | And also my webcam doesnt seem to work on linux, some sites dont work, lots of things I dont like | 07:06 |
| hunahpu | jj3124: what version? 9.10? 9.04? | 07:06 |
| brijith1 | hunahpu:acrobat reader is doing similar thing .. | 07:06 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: anyway hrm net books, you probably got hardly any RAM, and hardly any space, so Windows virtual machine is probably out. | 07:06 |
| hunahpu | brijith1: I don't know how to do it, sorry :( | 07:07 |
| brijith1 | hunahpu:Ok | 07:07 |
| jj3124 | hunahpu, hahah sorry 9.10 | 07:07 |
| MailGon | No Ive ran XP before on it, it runs smoothly, my cousin stupidly put ubuntu on it, removing all of my files and tools | 07:07 |
| rifter | jj3124 grub2 does not use menu.lst | 07:07 |
| hunahpu | jj3124: if it is a clean install, it doesn't have a menu.lst file, 9.10 uses GRUB2 which works different | 07:07 |
| greezmunkey | MailGon: make your cousin fix it! | 07:08 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: web cam you can probably configure. also there are other Linux distributions that might be better on that netbook. | 07:08 |
| jj3124 | huayra, hmm ok, should i just read up on it or is it a simple fix | 07:08 |
| MailGon | okay so, I just use gparted (from the live CD 'USB'), format my ubuntu installation, and then it should show up on my windows installation partition list correct? | 07:08 |
| hunahpu | jj3124: running "sudo update-grub" on a terminal usually fix menu entries | 07:08 |
| switch10_ | MailGon: try cheese for the webcam. and I asume flash sites are not working? do this: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 07:08 |
| brijith1 | hello any body know how to pop up the default mail client with attachment from inside a python script | 07:08 |
| crucialhoax | MailGon: in ubuntu. System > Administration > USB startup disk creator download the gparted live cd and use that iso and a flash drive to format the hard drive. | 07:08 |
| jj3124 | huayra, thanks, il try that out | 07:08 |
| jj3124 | oops, hunahpu | 07:08 |
| hunahpu | MailGon: you would need to delete the partition | 07:08 |
| MailGon | thnx crucial! | 07:08 |
| * jbrouhard is seriously thinking of re-doing the laptop into linux too ... | 07:09 | |
| crucialhoax | MailGon: you got it? | 07:09 |
| jbrouhard | now that everything I need to work in Ubuntu is working. haha :) | 07:09 |
| MailGon | yeah | 07:09 |
| crucialhoax | alright.. | 07:09 |
| MailGon | Im putting linux on my USB so I can use gparted and remove the partition | 07:09 |
| MailGon | err format** | 07:09 |
| MailGon | not remove :P | 07:09 |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: also that USB stick you could then use on better computers and have some fun with Ubuntu | 07:09 |
| hunahpu | MailGon: if you are going to format, make sure you use a filesystem windows support... | 07:10 |
| crucialhoax | NTFS | 07:10 |
| MailGon | i honestly dont like ubuntu though.....Ive used windows for many years, its more suited to me and nothing can make me change my mind about it =/ | 07:10 |
| * hunahpu wonders why someone would go back to windows and all the headaches | 07:10 | |
| sebsebseb | MailGon: yes there are differences here and there between Windows and Linux distributions, but if you give a distro a proper chance, and learn/read a bit about it, you will probably like it. Also depending to some extent on the hardware you want to use with it of course. If it just works or not. | 07:11 |
| switch10_ | I could never use windows again... | 07:11 |
| crashdata | i just like not installing pirated software nmre | 07:11 |
| jj3124 | hunahpu, just simpler for simple-minded people like myself :) | 07:11 |

| tenbytes_ | i can use the ubuntu boot disc to format my harddrive without install ubuntu? | 07:20 |
| Slart | Beyondinferno: will you please stop repeating every 10 seconds.. once every 10 minutes or so is often enough | 07:20 |
| switch10_ | tenbytes_: yes | 07:20 |
| Slart | Beyondinferno: use the time to search the forums, google or improve your question | 07:20 |
| switch10_ | tenbytes_: use gparted. | 07:20 |
| tenbytes_ | ah nice | 07:20 |
| tenbytes_ | trying to install 32 bit xp over a 64 bit vista | 07:20 |
| Beyondinferno | I'm on a clean install, have swapped ports on router and swapped nic cards and can connect from another computer via wireless and wired lan | 07:21 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: so what is the problem? | 07:21 |
| Beyondinferno | the ONLY difference is the problem box is running x64 | 07:21 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: what is your question? | 07:22 |
| Beyondinferno | windows network shows in network in the file browser but the shares wont show | 07:22 |
| Beyondinferno | the system hosting them aswell | 07:22 |
| Beyondinferno | but everything works perfect from a x386 system | 07:22 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: can you ping the server? | 07:22 |
| Beyondinferno | yes i can | 07:23 |
| Beyondinferno | i've formatted, reinstalled, changed ip and nic and still no dice | 07:23 |
| Beyondinferno | does samba have known issues with nvidia on board nic? | 07:24 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: Mine works.. | 07:24 |
| Beyondinferno | (sorry if i'm comming off rude, i'm just trying to be as detailed as possible) | 07:24 |
| xiven | Well, I guess Ubuntu doesn't have a package for PDO-ODBC | 07:25 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: U have a PCI NIC? | 07:25 |
| xiven | I sure as heck cannot find one which satisfies apache | 07:25 |
| Beyondinferno | I've been searching for about 5 hours and can't find anything relevant. | 07:25 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: to test? | 07:25 |
| chelz | Beyondinferno: same workgroup? | 07:25 |
| Beyondinferno | I do, but it's in another machine | 07:25 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: pull it just to test quick... | 07:26 |
| Beyondinferno | i've got 2 ports on my mobo and have tried swapping to see if it was a mac add or ip issue | 07:26 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: if you can, I guess that is.. | 07:26 |
| spaceman1987 | how do you turn on perl where the server will run a perl script? | 07:26 |
| crucialhoax | Beyondinferno: I used to have a bookmark that had a how to ugh one sec :) | 07:26 |
| Beyondinferno | I'll try, but lets say it doesn't work... any other ideas? | 07:27 |
| crucialhoax | here is one of them: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba | 07:27 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: can you ping the problematic machine? | 07:27 |
| spaceman1987 | tried chmod -x and that didnt do it | 07:27 |
| Beyondinferno | just so i have something else to pursue | 07:27 |
| switch10_ | spaceman1987: chmod u+x file | 07:28 |
| crucialhoax | Beyondinferno: and here! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 | 07:28 |
| Beyondinferno | i can see the client from the server and can see the server from another client | 07:28 |
| chelz | Beyondinferno: yeah you need to mess with some settings according to some guides | 07:28 |
| StopSign | so i installed grub2, and startup manager clicked the splash screen , rebooted the resolution was correct but no splash screen ? | 07:29 |
| chelz | Beyondinferno: http://tolearnfree.blogspot.com/2009/05/how-to-share-files-using-samba-via.html | 07:29 |
| Beyondinferno | but why would it work on another client running the same distro? | 07:29 |
| Beyondinferno | I've set it up and it works on another machine, just not the one running karmic x64 | 07:30 |
| chelz | Beyondinferno: after you fix the issue you'll know why since you will have changed whatever needs changing and might be different | 07:30 |
| chelz | so get crackin | 07:30 |
| Beyondinferno | i've read about 15 different walkthroughs on setting up samba | 07:32 |
| Beyondinferno | i'm looking for an isolated issue with either x64 or nvidia | 07:32 |
| Beyondinferno | those are the only differences | 07:32 |
| crucialhoax | are you sure its an x64 issue? I did read that it worked with 32bit but did the settings stay the same? | 07:33 |
| switch10_ | Beyondinferno: put in that PCI NIC... that will rule that out if it doesnt work.. | 07:34 |
| spaceman1987 | youtube is a great tool for learning new things in ubuntu | 07:34 |
| Beyondinferno | i guess that's all for now, Thanks for the help all! Hopefully I wont be back :p | 07:35 |
| chelz | that xiven guy left too quickly | 07:36 |
| brijith1 | how to invoke default mail client | 07:36 |
| brijith1 | Hi all ... how to invoke default mail client from python script ? | 07:37 |
| chelz | brijith1: as in launch? i think just evolution | 07:37 |
| rifter | chelz, but what if that's not their client | 07:38 |
| chelz | i think that's the default mail client on ubuntu | 07:38 |
| chelz | which seemed to be what the question was regarding | 07:38 |
| rifter | chelz, I think they want to read what the default mail client is and launch that | 07:38 |
| brijith1 | chelz:I want to invoke outlook from python | 07:38 |
| rifter | chelz as in what is in their settings | 07:38 |
| chelz | brijith1: what version of ubuntu are you on? | 07:39 |
| rifter | brijith1, well if you just want o invoke a speccific client there is a pythin command to call system commands | 07:39 |

| brijith1 | chelz:so what I am suppose to do.. ? | 07:41 |
| rifter | brijith1, if you are trying to do this on windows you should probably check for a python channel | 07:41 |
| louis | google it | 07:41 |
| louis | hehe | 07:41 |
| kiaas | Are there any programs that would allow me to convert MP3 to aac in the repos? (of 8.04 LTS) | 07:42 |
| brijith1 | louis:I am tired of googling it | 07:42 |
| rifter | hmm that is interesting #python :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services | 07:42 |
| louis | been there | 07:42 |
| brijith1 | rifter: yea me to getting the same error | 07:42 |

| tenbytes_ | im doing "install ubuntu" clicking enter | 07:45 |
| tenbytes_ | it doesnt do anything | 07:45 |
| rifter | brijith1, oteh rmail clients take arguments for mailto, subject, etc... | 07:45 |
| rifter | brijith1, actually I betthere is a python module to invoke a mailto link, mailto urls would open whatever their client was and fill in the subject line etc | 07:46 |
| chelz | rifter: how about taking it to a pm | 07:46 |
| brijith1 | chelz: Cannot join #python: Registration is required. Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services error I am getting while tries to join #python channel | 07:46 |

| tenbytes_ | ? | 07:57 |
| chelz | tenbytes_: you can also check the integrity of a disk by selecting "Check CD for defects" on the menu after you boot to the livecd | 07:57 |
| tenbytes_ | could it be because this is a 64 bit cpu? | 07:58 |
| gottto | the only time ubuntu hasn't loaded from the cd for me is when the burner was on its' way out | 07:58 |
| tenbytes_ | i really just need to reformat this harddrive | 07:59 |
| chelz | tenbytes_: both i386 and amd64 discs work on 64 bit cpus. i suggest checking the disk for defects and trying various BootParemeters | 07:59 |
| chelz | tenbytes_: try selecting "Check CD for defects" | 07:59 |
| tenbytes_ | yeah | 08:00 |
| tenbytes_ | it doesnt work either | 08:00 |
| rifter | tenbytes_, I used the 9.10 livecd just a couple of days ago to boot and resize my partitions with gparted | 08:00 |
| tenbytes_ | it tries to load..then it stopps | 08:00 |
| tenbytes_ | i hear it trying to read the cd | 08:00 |
| tenbytes_ | im thinking this cd is messed up | 08:00 |
| rifter | tenbytes_, it came right up from the menu for me | 08:00 |
| tenbytes_ | im reburning at a slower speed | 08:00 |
| chelz | tenbytes_: might be a drive issue. if you find your drive isn't working you can use unetbootin to put ubuntu on a usb stick with 705 megabyte or more of space. it will be formatted though. | 08:01 |
| rifter | tenbytes_, now I have an amd 64 bit system, if you have an older 64 bit chip tehre were some competing standards, but I think if you'r ebooting it should work. check the md5sum on your iso. yes burning at a slower speed is more reliable, use good media | 08:01 |
| tenbytes_ | its an amd turion | 08:02 |
| tenbytes_ | 64 | 08:02 |
| tenbytes_ | hmm brb | 08:03 |
| rifter | tenbytes you shoudl be fine then | 08:04 |

| steppenwolf | ok when runing the update manager I have a box that says Some of the packages could not be retrived from the server(s) do you want to continue, ignoring the packages?" | 08:18 |
| chelz | would be nice if there was a non-emergency way to alert ops to trolls | 08:18 |
| theadmin | steppenwolf: Check your connection | 08:19 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, restart worked thanks :) | 08:19 |
| theadmin | chelz: There is this "ops" trigger, kinda works in most cases | 08:19 |
| chelz | steppenwolf: if you get that more than a few times you can try pastebinning the output of some commands and we'll diagnose it | 08:19 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, the only thing i wanna try it for is yahoo messenger | 08:19 |
| chelz | theadmin: yeah but it says right on it "only use in emergencies" | 08:19 |

| coz_ | robertzaccour, what about pigin | 08:24 |
| robertzaccour | TheMozart, yes | 08:24 |
| theadmin | TheMozart: use unetbootin | 08:24 |
| TheMozart | robertzaccour: how? | 08:24 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, same issue lol | 08:24 |
| TheMozart | theadmin: eh? | 08:24 |
| coz_ | robertzaccour, mmmm | 08:24 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, with skype it works great though. even better than yahoo | 08:25 |
| TheMozart | theadmin: I have downloaded ubuntu .iso file its 650MB. What I do now? | 08:25 |
| chelz | TheMozart: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 08:25 |

| theadmin | TheMozart: Use the prog chelz linked to. | 08:25 |
| chelz | TheMozart: download and install unetbootin then select the iso you have | 08:25 |
| Banshee_ | chelz: I did as you said with teh sudo command it told me that the package didnt exist or something along those lines | 08:25 |
| chelz | Banshee_: did you install 9.10? | 08:25 |
| Banshee_ | chelz: yes | 08:26 |
| robertzaccour | i really think us Linux users should be promoting skype a lot more than we do. they're the only messenger app that I know of that has a version for Linux. among the well know ones anyhow | 08:26 |
| steppenwolf | I did the sudo from a terminal | 08:26 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, yes i can use skype. i guess my real friends will talk to me on there anyhow lol if they're understanding | 08:26 |
| chelz | steppenwolf: try to update again | 08:26 |
| theadmin | robertzaccour: what about all those Jabber/Gtalk things? :P And Skype is huge anyway :/ | 08:26 |
| steppenwolf | and the reading of the package l ist is done | 08:26 |

| steppenwolf | I will | 08:26 |
| TheMozart | I have downloaded ubuntu alternative .ISO file. Is there a way to get that unto my USB stick and then install Ubuntu from my USB stick? | 08:26 |
| theadmin | TheMozart: Oh. No. You need the desktop iso. | 08:27 |
| chelz | Banshee_: do apt-cache search nvidia-glx | 08:27 |
| coz_ | robertzaccour, i am guessing there are other native linux messengers with video support ... google should know :) | 08:27 |
| robertzaccour | theadmin, how is skype huge? seems to run pretty quick. it installs faster than almost anything | 08:27 |
| Odo | giorno | 08:27 |
| theadmin | robertzaccour: Well, maybe it's just that i last tried it quite long ago | 08:27 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, yes gyachi, however never got voice chat working | 08:27 |
| TheMozart | theadmin: but I want the alternative ISO... so I cannot do it? | 08:27 |
| chelz | Banshee_: and pick the highest number after the "nvidia-glx-" and apt-get install it | 08:27 |
| robertzaccour | theadmin, it installed here in seconds | 08:27 |
| coz_ | robertzaccour, ok well this crossover is almost done uploading I will give you link when finished | 08:28 |
| robertzaccour | theadmin, kopete takes much longer | 08:28 |
| theadmin | TheMozart: No... | 08:28 |

| aiakeng | alternative....good! | 08:28 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, oh ok thanks | 08:28 |
| theadmin | robertzaccour: kopete? Bleh, KDE apps :/ | 08:28 |
| Banshee_ | chelz: Ok brb ill go try that | 08:28 |
| robertzaccour | theadmin, i don't like them either lol | 08:28 |
| chelz | TheMozart: download and open unetbootin | 08:28 |
| robertzaccour | even if i did use kde apps, i'm glad that they have the gnome look instead of that kiddy game look | 08:29 |
| MailGon | okay i opened gparted | 08:29 |
| theadmin | chelz: It only works with the Desktop iso, so... well, not gonna work | 08:29 |
| MailGon | how do I remove my linux distribution? | 08:29 |
| shankar021988 | ya Gnome is superb | 08:29 |
| MailGon | theres 3 partitions: | 08:29 |
| indus | MailGon, format the partition | 08:29 |
| shankar021988 | just format it with any other os | 08:29 |
| theadmin | MailGon: Is any of them 'ext4'? | 08:29 |
| MailGon | im using live cd | 08:29 |
| MailGon | ext4 | 08:30 |
| MailGon | yes | 08:30 |
| indus | MailGon, the one with ext3 or ext4 | 08:30 |
| robertzaccour | TheMozart, try downloading the iso then use unetbootin to put it on the flash drive | 08:30 |
| shankar021988 | both | 08:30 |
| theadmin | MailGon: Format that :D And done. | 08:30 |

| MailGon | im using a live cd | 08:30 |
| FloodBot2 | MailGon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:30 |
| TheMozart | robertzaccour: but i have the alternative iso... only desktop iso will work :*( | 08:30 |
| theadmin | MailGon: The ext4 one.... linux-swap... hm, you can remove that completely, as a matter of fact, since you will not need swap | 08:30 |
| robertzaccour | TheMozart, use desktop iso then | 08:30 |
| aiakeng | I think alternative ISO install is difficulty for me. | 08:30 |
| MailGon | what is linux-swap? | 08:30 |
| indus | MailGon, do you have separate home also? | 08:31 |
| theadmin | MailGon: The swap space, kinda to work with RAM better | 08:31 |
| MailGon | im running this from a USB live cd | 08:31 |
| MailGon | i dont wanna remove the one im running | 08:31 |
| MailGon | ext4 is the one on my hard drive? not my usb correct? | 08:31 |
| theadmin | MailGon: Yes, obviously | 08:31 |
| shankar021988 | ya u can do it by opening partition manager | 08:31 |
| theadmin | MailGon: Your USB would be in vfat | 08:31 |

| MailGon | i wanna make it blank so my windows installation can recognize it | 08:32 |
| MailGon | because before it couldnt since its linux | 08:32 |
| indus | MailGon, just delete the partition so it creates free space | 08:32 |
| robertzaccour | coz_, i don't really need crossover anyway, just curious about the yahoo messenger | 08:32 |
| coz_ | robertzaccour, yeah...when crossover came out with a new version ...there was a week period or so that it was free | 08:32 |
| MailGon | it sais 1 operation pending | 08:32 |
| antonio_ | buenos dias | 08:32 |
| indus | MailGon, i hope you have backed up important data | 08:32 |
| theadmin | MailGon: Delete both ext4 and linux-swap, expand your windows partition to all that space | 08:32 |

| MailGon | how do i confirm it | 08:33 |
| Banshee_ | chelz: I did that and nothing came up, so I just tryped apt-cache search nvidia and the closest I seen was nvidia-185-modaliases | 08:33 |
| theadmin | MailGon: Huh. It's active?! Strange. Do "sudo swapoff -a" in terminal | 08:33 |

| sereph | unplug the speakers | 08:44 |
| julikoko | hw can i create a swap space after installing ubuntu | 08:44 |
| chelz | there is an "audio" group, or there used to be | 08:44 |
| sereph | sorry im in a sarcastic mood tonight | 08:44 |
| julikoko | i didnt create the swap partition while i was doing the installation | 08:45 |
| AnAnt | chelz: is there any other way ? using apparmor for example ? | 08:45 |
| indigoparrot | hey there everyone, anyone got any experience with Bacula? | 08:45 |
| sereph | how can i make the line in play out the speakers? | 08:45 |
| sereph | ask | indigoparrot | 08:45 |
| sereph | !ask | indigoparrot | 08:46 |
| ubottu | indigoparrot: 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. :-) | 08:46 |
| sereph | there we go :P | 08:46 |
| chelz | AnAnt: i don't know about that, but there might be. you could also try looking into SELinux | 08:46 |
| chelz | won't be easy though | 08:46 |
| chelz | sereph: !anyone is good too | 08:46 |
| chelz | !anyone | indigoparrot | 08:46 |
| ubottu | indigoparrot: 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? | 08:46 |
| MailGon | OMFG | 08:46 |
| sereph | chelz: heh yeah | 08:46 |
| indigoparrot | thanks guys... :P | 08:46 |
| MailGon | the partition WILL NOT show up in windows | 08:47 |
| MailGon | wtf........ | 08:47 |
| * sereph waits for the real question | 08:47 | |
| indigoparrot | unfortunately it's not as simple as a single question, but here goes... | 08:47 |
| MailGon | I just made a new NTSF through my live CD | 08:47 |
| MailGon | and for some reason it refuses to show up in windows installation | 08:47 |
| MailGon | ...... | 08:47 |
| chelz | MailGon: look into adding a new harddrive to windows. windows is weird. but that's offtopic. | 08:47 |
| sereph | chelz: how do i get the bot to tell me his commands? | 08:48 |
| indigoparrot | I have Ubuntu running the bacula-dir, and a windows client with bacula-fd. The bacula-dir cannot connect to the bacula-fd on windows. The passwords are the same, the IPs are correct (and IPs, not names) and i've turned off the firewall in XP and rebooted both machines. | 08:48 |
| indigoparrot | @sereph happy now? :P | 08:48 |
| sereph | yes much better :) | 08:48 |
| chelz | !ubottu > sereph | 08:48 |
| ubottu | sereph, please see my private message | 08:48 |
| penocio | is there a way to install windows while having linux in a seperate partition, as windows do not disturb the grub boot system and linux option in startup grub remains as it is? | 08:48 |

| steppenwolf | Hi I am having problems with Ubuntu 9.04, I installed a 64 bit version on a intel centrino Duo t7600 processors but those are still X86, so I have to install the i386 version right? | 08:54 |
| ikonia | steppenwolf: if it doesn't support a 64bit OS it won't install | 08:54 |
| === ubuntuuser is now known as SirRedTooth | ||
| iceroot | steppenwolf: yes | 08:55 |
| steppenwolf | it did installed | 08:55 |
| sereph | chelz: mind if i pm you for an off topicc question? | 08:55 |
| iceroot | steppenwolf: normally the installer should tell you that the architecture is not supported | 08:55 |
| Moral_ | I'm trying to chmod a file on my ntfs partition but it wont take the paramaters I give it... Any suggestions? | 08:55 |
| joaopinto | if the 64 bits livecd booted then they are 64 bits :P | 08:55 |
| g0aliath | how hard is it to compile stuff for x64 ubuntu? | 08:55 |
| MailGon | okay wow | 08:55 |
| steppenwolf | it booted | 08:55 |
| MailGon | it still wont show up in installation | 08:55 |
| joaopinto | g0aliath, as hard as it is for 32 bits | 08:55 |
| ikonia | Moral_: a.) you may have it marked as read only b.) ntfs won't support unix based file permissions in the same way | 08:55 |
| MailGon | ........ | 08:55 |
| steppenwolf | even installed | 08:55 |
| FloodBot4 | MailGon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:55 |
| iceroot | g0aliath: not hard if you know what to do | 08:55 |
| MailGon | why doesnt it show up in installation???? i created new partition table and everything....... | 08:55 |
| g0aliath | no i mean for myself in the terminal | 08:55 |
| Moral_ | ikonia, Orly @ the unix based file permissions.... So... what are my options? | 08:56 |
| Amin__ | no i just downloaded 5gb n dvb sat by mana and it is corrupted ad i need a soft to repair it by direct link | 08:56 |
| g0aliath | is it a lot of shel scripting? | 08:56 |
| chelz | sereph: eh try #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:56 |
| MailGon | why doesnt the stupid partition table show up! | 08:56 |
| MailGon | in windows installation | 08:56 |
| iceroot | g0aliath: just compile the stuff on a 64bit system, its the same way as on a 32bit system | 08:56 |
| sereph | chelz: nevermind i figured it out :) | 08:56 |
| === jared is now known as Guest41492 | ||
| ikonia | Moral_: well you can change the permissions (if it's mounted read/write) as the root user | 08:56 |
| sereph | chelz: it was about the bot but i got it | 08:56 |
| joaopinto | g0aliath, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware | 08:56 |
| g0aliath | cool, thanks guys for the info, im thinking about going 64 | 08:56 |
| chelz | steppenwolf: t7600 is 64bit capable | 08:56 |
| MailGon | .. | 08:57 |
| steppenwolf | it did installed | 08:57 |
| Moral_ | ikonia, there lies the problem... It's mounted as rw and when i sudo chmod it doesnt work... | 08:57 |
| Amin__ | yes bu i love ubuntu chat irc it is more better and full of info | 08:57 |
| ikonia | Moral_: can you show me the output of the command "mount" in a pastebin please | 08:57 |
| MailGon | does anyone know why my partition that I JSUT made in gparted wont show up in windows installation? | 08:57 |
| ikonia | Amin__: please don't ask in here for suse support | 08:57 |
| Moral_ | ikonia, sure. | 08:57 |
| MailGon | i made it an ntfs file system wtf | 08:57 |
| joaopinto | MailGon, windows does not identify ext partitions | 08:58 |
| ikonia | MailGon: the TOC needs to be re-read | 08:58 |
| MailGon | no, its ntfs | 08:58 |
| ikonia | MailGon: please control your language | 08:58 |
| MailGon | its not ext, i made sure it was ntfs | 08:58 |
| steppenwolf | ok would it be optimal? | 08:58 |
| MailGon | i made a new partition table, then a new partition (ntfs partition) | 08:58 |
| ikonia | MailGon: use windows to format windows partitions | 08:58 |
| MailGon | .... | 08:58 |
| MailGon | I cant........ | 08:58 |
| ikonia | MailGon: using Linux to make a 3rd party closed source file system is not a good idea | 08:58 |
| MailGon | Im trying to INSTALL windows | 08:58 |
| ikonia | MailGon: why not ? | 08:58 |
| ikonia | MailGon: the installer will format the partition | 08:59 |
| MailGon | no | 08:59 |
| ikonia | MailGon: yes it will | 08:59 |
| MailGon | the partition doesnt show up | 08:59 |
| Moral_ | ikonia, you want my entire mount or just the partition... | 08:59 |
| ikonia | MailGon: you do know you need two partitions to install windows, and it's fussy - it wants the first partition on the disk | 08:59 |
| ikonia | Moral_: just the output of the command "mount" on it's own please | 08:59 |
| MailGon | im on a netbook, and im running gparted off a usb so I can format linux partitions, and then I use my other USB to install windows | 08:59 |
| davide | non windows format. fdisk if possible | 09:00 |
| ikonia | MailGon: that makes no difference to what I've said | 09:00 |
| steppenwolf | ok chelz but would it be optimal? | 09:00 |
| MailGon | What do I do in linux? | 09:00 |
| MailGon | So I can get the partition to show up in windows installation | 09:00 |
| ikonia | MailGon: re-read what I've said, Windows wants two partitions, one at the start of the disk for the temporary space | 09:00 |
| Moral_ | ikonia, http://pastebin.com/eWu097pU | 09:00 |
| MailGon | so...it wants two then | 09:00 |
| MailGon | One primary and one unallocated | 09:00 |
| MailGon | correct? | 09:01 |
| ikonia | MailGon: the guys in ##windows will be able to give you the correct requirements for your windows OS | 09:01 |
| ikonia | Moral_: where is it mounted, I don't see an NTFS mouint on there | 09:01 |
| ikonia | Moral_: oh, it's it the media/DAD005----blah one | 09:02 |
| Moral_ | yea | 09:02 |
| shankar021988 | yas | 09:02 |
| ikonia | Moral_: I'm wrong http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/installation/296-fat32-ntfs-write-permissions.html | 09:02 |
| ikonia | Moral_: I knew it didn't support permissions, but I thought they could be changeds, they can't | 09:03 |
| Moral_ | ikonia, fuck. | 09:03 |
| Moral_ | well | 09:03 |
| ikonia | Moral_: hey - control the language, that's not needed | 09:04 |

| TheMozart | anyone know if unetbootin works with alternative 9.10 .ISO? | 09:08 |
| chelz | TheMozart: i know for a fact it does | 09:08 |
| hunahpu | TheMozart: yes it should do | 09:08 |
| steppenwolf | but can not view in full screen | 09:08 |
| steppenwolf | nor use the buttons | 09:08 |
| TheMozart | chelz: cool. so what option do I choose in unetbootin? | 09:08 |
| steppenwolf | think is something with flash player | 09:08 |
| chelz | TheMozart: Select ISO | 09:08 |
| TheMozart | chelz: unetbootin doesn't have alternative 9.10 as an option..it only shows 9.10 desktop ISO. | 09:09 |
| TheMozart | chelz: so what did you choose? | 09:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | steppenwolf, are you on 64bit and are you using ubuntu-restricted-extras or flashplugin-installer for flash? | 09:09 |
| chelz | TheMozart: it should look like this: http://sourceforge.net/dbimage.php?id=167328 | 09:09 |
| steppenwolf | I am on 64bit | 09:09 |
| chelz | TheMozart: select Disk Image | 09:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | steppenwolf, http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/clicking-in-flash-not-working | 09:10 |
| TheMozart | chelz: yes it does.. so you mean ignore the top part and just choose "Diskimage" ISO? | 09:10 |
| steppenwolf | not using ubuntu restricted-extras nor flash plugin-installer | 09:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | steppenwolf, what flash are you using? | 09:10 |
| chelz | TheMozart: yes i do. select the iso you have. | 09:10 |
| TheMozart | chelz: ok.. then press OK and it will write to USB stick? | 09:10 |
| chelz | TheMozart: btw that works with basically any linux iso. *linux* | 09:10 |
| chelz | TheMozart: make sure you have the right drive selected at the bottom | 09:11 |
| TheMozart | chelz: can I then install Ubuntu to my hard drive from the USB stick? | 09:11 |
| chelz | TheMozart: if your computer supports booting to usb devices, yes | 09:11 |
| TheMozart | chelz: next to "TYPE" it says "USB": | 09:11 |
| chelz | TheMozart: it will function just like a livecd | 09:12 |
| TheMozart | USB DRIVE | 09:12 |

| chelz | those multiple virtual terminals are the result of x i think | 09:36 |
| ikonia | Demiurge: how did you install it | 09:36 |
| POE | chelz: oh. | 09:37 |
| chelz | Demiurge: ntfs-3g --help | 09:37 |
| chelz | POE: login and look into gnu screen | 09:37 |
| POE | chelz: but i have no login prompt, thats the thing | 09:37 |
| theadmin | screen rocks! | 09:37 |
| Zerfmorgan | Hi everybody | 09:38 |
| Demiurge | ikonia: Downloaded the source and compiled it. So it should be the latest version. But I get errors that the faq says should be corrected "in the latest version", so I'd like to check. | 09:38 |
| POE | chelz: last initmsg is "setting Advanced Power Management level ... [OK]" and then nothing | 09:38 |
| theadmin | POE: Not even something like "$(hostname) login:"? | 09:38 |
| Demiurge | chelz: Thanks. | 09:38 |
| POE | theadmin: no, nothing like that | 09:38 |
| theadmin | POE: huh. Creepy. | 09:38 |
| chelz | POE: does ctrl alt fn keys do anything? | 09:38 |
| POE | lol im retarded. i was trying ctrl+alt+numbers before | 09:39 |
| POE | thanks chelz | 09:39 |
| ikonia | Demiurge: then you should know and understand the impact on doing that | 09:39 |
| chelz | POE: oh, well that's good to know | 09:39 |
| ikonia | Demiurge: which includes being able to check the version, changing NTFS-3g has massive implications | 09:39 |
| chelz | i wonder what drives those if not X | 09:39 |
| === detlef is now known as bullgard4 | ||
| theadmin | chelz: X starts in tty7, so it can't drive tty's as it works in one :D | 09:40 |
| Zenker | which channel is for ubuntu 10.02? | 09:40 |
| POE | chelz: should be the normal getty's, X is normally running in tty7 | 09:40 |
| theadmin | chelz: see: man 4 tty | 09:40 |
| theadmin | (not sure if it's the right one because i don't get some of stuff there) | 09:41 |
| chelz | theadmin: i was looking into vterm stuff not too long ago and i thought i read something about them being part of X. but alright, i'll check that out | 09:42 |
| theadmin | chelz: Uh, virtual terminal can be something like gnome-terminal or xterm, which obviously is a part of X | 09:43 |
| chelz | yeah i mean the ctrl+alt+fn ones for sure tho | 09:44 |
| theadmin | bleh this stuff jumping in background makes my head hurt lol | 09:44 |
| joaopinto | a xterm is not a virtual terminal, is a terminal emulator :P | 09:44 |
| Demiurge | ikonia: Well, didn't have much of a choice. Or at least not much to lose.. It didn't work with the old ntfs-3g version. | 09:44 |
| joaopinto | you usually refer to VTs as console terminals | 09:44 |
| chelz | Demiurge: what version of ubuntu are you on? | 09:45 |
| Avasz | how do i know what is my vga card memory? | 09:46 |
| Demiurge | chelz: 9.10 | 09:46 |
| chelz | Avasz: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-find-linux-vga-video-card-ram/ | 09:47 |
| ania_ | Avasz, type lshw in terminal and search after graphic card | 09:47 |

| karim_frl | hello evry one | 09:48 |
| pagore | hi all :), does someone know something about the Nautilus Emblemes? I mean the icons, which you can find under | 09:48 |
| pagore | "rightClick on File or Folder --->Properties --->Tab to Emblems ---> chose an embleme". | 09:48 |
| pagore | does someone know where the metafile is saved? :) | 09:48 |
| chelz | !hi | karim_frl | 09:48 |
| ubottu | karim_frl: 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! | 09:48 |
| Steppenwolf1 | Hi everyone how do I set flash for Ubuntu? | 09:48 |
| karim_frl | hi chelz | 09:48 |
| theadmin | chelz: That most certainly was NOT russian | 09:48 |
| karim_frl | it is my first time here | 09:48 |
| chelz | pagore: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-help/88993-adding-emblems.html | 09:48 |
| theadmin | Steppenwolf1: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 09:48 |
| Steppenwolf1 | I need the flash and also the SVG | 09:48 |
| chelz | theadmin: he's connecting from a russian ip, that's what i go off of mose of the time | 09:49 |
| theadmin | Steppenwolf1: svg? Firefox opens those fine by default | 09:49 |
| theadmin | chelz: Well, he's not using UTF8, because what i saw was "????????" | 09:49 |
| chelz | Steppenwolf1: 64 or 32bit? | 09:49 |
| shankar021988 | 32 | 09:49 |
| chelz | theadmin: i saw letters with a lot of umlaut-like stuff | 09:49 |
| Steppenwolf1 | 64 | 09:50 |
| chelz | !flash64 | Steppenwolf1 | 09:50 |
| ubottu | Steppenwolf1: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava | 09:50 |
| RPG-Master | OK, I know this was caused by updating the beta, but I've lost all my mail in Evolution! Does Evolution store I auto-backup anywhere? | 09:50 |
| chelz | RPG-Master: lucid support is in #ubuntu+1 | 09:50 |
| RPG-Master | I know :( | 09:50 |
| RPG-Master | but no one up in there knows :( | 09:50 |
| chelz | you could try searching lucid bugs for stuff related to evolution | 09:51 |
| theadmin | chelz: That is not russian then :P We have nothing like this... well, one letter Our whole alphabet: абвгдеёжзиклмнопрстуфхсчьъыэюя | 09:51 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ok thanks ubottu | 09:51 |
| chelz | theadmin: ah yeah no idea | 09:51 |
| RPG-Master | I assume if it can be fixed it would be the same way no matter the version | 09:51 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ok | 09:51 |
| chelz | RPG-Master: well generally i'd say people already using lucid would be more likely to be helpful than people here since they're more like to have encountered a bug and the fix for that bug than people in here | 09:52 |
| RPG-Master | chelz: eh... ok | 09:52 |
| theadmin | bleh. FF 3.5.8 on Ubuntu has a strange bug, sometimes it randomly goes on reloading the page forever until you hit the Reload or Stop button manually or retype the adress. What's this? Never encountered it on Windows. | 09:53 |
| ikonia | theadmin: that's most often a DNS/router issues | 09:54 |
| chelz | could also be due to the page not being able to set cookies for some reason | 09:54 |
| theadmin | ikonia: Hm... Router? Have no such stuff... then maybe DNS. | 09:54 |
| Steppenwolf1 | hey Ubottu in that link says (Not officially supported by Ubuntu)!! | 09:54 |
| theadmin | Steppenwolf1: don't try to talk with ubottu, it's a program :D | 09:55 |
| dmhouse | Hi guys. I've just bought an Acer Aspire 5536 and put Karmic on it. There's a problem that the fan just stays on all the time. How would I go about fixing this | 09:55 |
| Steppenwolf1 | heheheh ok | 09:55 |
| SandGorgon | anyone know of any remote-deskktop client able to connect to Win Server 2008 : rdesktop does not . I'm willing to purchase commercial software | 09:55 |
| dmhouse | s/$/?/ | 09:55 |
| Steppenwolf1 | so how do I install the flash plugins for 64 bits? | 09:56 |
| ikonia | Steppenwolf1: rdesktop should | 09:56 |
| ikonia | oops | 09:56 |
| ikonia | SandGorgon: rdesktop should | 09:56 |
| pagore | chelz: Hi chelz, your reply showed how i can add emblemes, but i want the file(s) where the information of which file has an embleme and which has not is saved. :) | 09:56 |
| pagore | Let me give an example, ich i style an folder with an embleme, then i copy all this folders to an other computer (under Ubuntu 9.10) | 09:56 |
| pagore | On my other Computer i cant see the emblemes. | 09:56 |
| SandGorgon | dmhouse, play with the swappiness and other swap settings in sysctl | 09:56 |
| Steppenwolf1 | rdesktop? | 09:56 |
| ikonia | Steppenwolf1: that wasn't for you - sorry | 09:56 |
| snaKe | is there any proxy support for ubuntu one ? | 09:57 |
| Steppenwolf1 | heheh ok | 09:57 |
| MadPad | Has anyone managed to use pacemaker on ubuntu ? I need to create a two-node mysql cluster with shared storage but I can't find anything on the web about it, everyone utilizes drbd | 09:57 |
| pagore | chelz: ich = if (sry) | 09:57 |
| SandGorgon | ikonia, nope.. if u turn on tls security in Server 2008 (which uses rdp protocol > 5.2),, it does not | 09:57 |
| chelz | pagore: that would be something that's part of gnome. i don't think that can be easily transferred. | 09:57 |
| inthevidual | hey. I am doing a custom remaster of Ubuntu, using wicd as the networkmanager | 09:57 |
| inthevidual | and I was wondering, how can I make the system add users to the netdev group by default? | 09:58 |
| chelz | pagore: /apps/nautilus/desktop-metadata seems to be where's it's store in gconf | 09:58 |
| Trezker | A large program running in wine just crashed for me, its process is gone but the memory is still occupied. Help? | 09:58 |
| chelz | pagore: you'll have to look into syncing gconf stuff | 09:58 |
| pagore | chelz: sec :) | 09:58 |
| theadmin | chelz: syncing gconf is as simple as "cp $HOME/.gconf /someplace" | 09:59 |
| dmhouse | SandGorgon: why would settings to do with swap affect the fan usage?> | 09:59 |
| Moral_ | where is a cdrom usually in /dev/? | 10:00 |
| banshee_ | chelz: Everything is working now that I installed with the ethernet cord plugged in | 10:00 |
| theadmin | Moral_: /dev/cdrom0 | 10:00 |
| chelz | theadmin: oh, alright then. that's good. but i'd imagine there's quite a few different things in gconf so syncing it all might not be ideal | 10:00 |
| theadmin | ...or is it? | 10:00 |
| Localhost666 | hi, someone knows what's the channel of algorithms and data structures? | 10:00 |
| retybok | What is the best netbook for linux? My main criteria are robustness and linux compatibility. Can someone point me to a decent and recent comparison? | 10:00 |
| SandGorgon | dmhouse, ur disk might be spinning continously. also check if ur processor is being scaled down appropriately | 10:00 |
| theadmin | chelz: Well, $HOME/.gconf is a folder. Choose what you want :P | 10:00 |
| tarzeau | i've got a hp mini one | 10:00 |
| chelz | banshee_: ah, good to hear. yeah i made that mistake not too long ago with debian, installing with an ethernet cord plugged in helped a lot | 10:00 |
| chelz | pagore: i guess check out ~/.gconf | 10:01 |
| banshee_ | chelz: Yeah :) how do I make sure my video card is the latest, and whats the apt-get for shockwave again I cannot remember, been a while since I had linux | 10:01 |
| theadmin | banshee_: Shockwave? You mean Flash, right? | 10:01 |
| iceroot | retybok: asus eepcs, doesnt matter which one | 10:01 |
| Moral_ | theadmin, thanks | 10:01 |
| chelz | banshee_: ubuntu-restricted-extras | 10:01 |
| dmhouse | SandGorgon: it doesn't look like the disc is spinning continuously. How do I check the processor scaling? | 10:02 |
| theadmin | chelz: That also gives a ton of useless crap such as mp3 codecs :/ | 10:02 |
| iceroot | banshee_: there is no shockwave for linux | 10:02 |
| chelz | banshee_: for your video card System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers | 10:02 |
| banshee_ | chelz: Yeah I mean't flash sorry | 10:02 |
| chelz | theadmin: it's a nice shotgun way to deal with format/codec/etc issues | 10:02 |
| chelz | !flash | banshee_ | 10:02 |
| ubottu | banshee_: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 10:02 |
| theadmin | banshee_: For 9.04 and up: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer, for 8.10 and lower: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 10:02 |
| kepy | i | 10:02 |
| retybok | iceroot: I have an asuss eee900, but the build is shit. The keyboard is pure crap | 10:02 |
| theadmin | chelz: A nicer way is sudo apt-get install vlc ;) | 10:03 |
| retybok | are the newer ones better? | 10:03 |
| iceroot | retybok: like your language | 10:03 |
| retybok | sorry :-/ | 10:03 |
| iceroot | retybok: for hardware have a look at ##hardware | 10:03 |
| retybok | ok, thanks | 10:03 |
| Steppenwolf1 | chelz: so how do I install flash plugins for 64 bits? | 10:03 |
| snaKe | ubuntu-one proxy conf ? | 10:04 |
| Maleko | guys, when you add your user account into other group, shouldnt you be able to peek into dirs of other users that also belong to the group? | 10:04 |
| ikonia | Steppenwolf1: just install the pacakge "flashplugin-nonfree" | 10:04 |
| ikonia | Maleko: depends if the directory has group read / execute permisions | 10:05 |
| theadmin | snaKe: Uh, i think Ubuntu One follows GNOME's proxy settings | 10:05 |
| Steppenwolf1 | got this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins?action=show&redirect=FirefoxAMD64FlashJava from bot but it says is not officially supported by Ubuntu | 10:05 |
| ikonia | Steppenwolf1: just install the package "flashplugin-nonfree" - that's it | 10:05 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ohhh Thanks iknonia!!! | 10:05 |
| karim_frl | linux is beter than windows | 10:06 |
| Maleko | ikonia: drwxr-x--x 6 www www | 10:06 |
| theadmin | something's running on port 8080. I wanna kill whatever is. How? | 10:06 |
| ikonia | Maleko: and are you a member of the "www" group | 10:06 |
| chelz | Steppenwolf1: if you have trouble with the official flash player, try out that guide | 10:06 |
| Maleko | i already add my user account into www group but im still not able to ls the dir | 10:06 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ok I'll try the official one | 10:07 |
| Maleko | groups maleko, output= maleko : maleko www | 10:07 |
| snaKe | ikonia, how to configure ubuntu-one proxy setting ? | 10:08 |
| theadmin | snaKe: It follows GNOME's proxy settings. Told you. | 10:08 |
| Steppenwolf1 | hey do I install the Flashplugin-installer first? | 10:08 |
| theadmin | Steppenwolf1: Nah, that's for i386/32-bit | 10:08 |
| Steppenwolf1 | or directly the flashpligin-nonfree? | 10:08 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ok | 10:08 |
| theadmin | Maleko: Huh? That's very strange. For me, output of "groups r00t" looks like this: "r00t adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare" | 10:09 |
| theadmin | (r00t is my username) | 10:10 |
| Maleko | theadmin: 9.10? | 10:10 |
| theadmin | Maleko: Yes | 10:10 |
| * theadmin is always on latest stable release :D | 10:10 | |
| snaKe | theadmin, i have tried that, but not working. which port does it connect to ? | 10:11 |
| banshee_ | chelz: When I try to setup Seperate X Screen, I try to click Save to X configuration file, and it tells me it failed to parse or something, any idea? | 10:11 |
| theadmin | snaKe: Not really any idea. | 10:12 |
| chelz | banshee_: are you using nvidia settings? | 10:12 |
| banshee_ | chelz: yes | 10:12 |
| pagore | chelz: ok u are in the right, the information about emblemes is realy saved in ~/.gconf , now i just need to find out where exactly :) | 10:12 |
| banshee_ | chelz I went System > Admin > Nvidia | 10:12 |
| chelz | banshee_: yeah ubuntu doesn't have an xorg.conf since i think jaunty, you have to make one | 10:13 |
| banshee_ | chelz oh ok ill google this | 10:13 |
| chelz | banshee_: try sudo nvidia-xconfig | 10:13 |
| chelz | banshee_: then open up nvidia settings again | 10:14 |
| Maleko | <theadmin> Maleko: Huh? That's very strange. For me, output of "groups r00t" looks like this: "r00t adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare" | 10:14 |
| Maleko | ^ admin account | 10:14 |
| theadmin | Maleko: Oh. | 10:14 |
| slacker- | Hi | 10:15 |
| banshee_ | chelz: I just realised I have no sound :) | 10:15 |
| chelz | banshee_: yeah that's the most common issue i saw when googling for your computer | 10:15 |
| banshee_ | chelz: WAs there a fix? | 10:16 |
| MauL^ | I am running a web server on my local and it replies very fast but when I do a request from another machine in the same network, the reply comes very late.. I think there is something that slows down the operation.. what can be? I've opened the firewall necessary port ... what do you suggest me ? | 10:16 |
| slacker- | I'm getting a few of those recently: INFO: task xyz blocked for more than 120 seconds. | 10:16 |
| chelz | banshee_: i didn't read any of it since you didn't mention that issue. try googling your model number and ubuntu and you'll see stuff on it | 10:16 |
| banshee_ | chelz: Will do | 10:16 |
| slacker- | I've upgraded /home from ext3 to ext4. Running karmic on 2.6.31-20-server 64bit | 10:16 |
| slacker- | any idea where this might come from? | 10:17 |
| theadmin | slacker-: Where do you get those? | 10:18 |
| slacker- | with those messages comes a call trace | 10:18 |
| slacker- | theadmin: in syslog | 10:18 |
| Duzchip | Hi, i just upgraded ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04 to try it out | 10:18 |
| Duzchip | i found one problem | 10:18 |
| chelz | !lucid | Duzchip | 10:18 |
| ubottu | Duzchip: 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 | 10:18 |
| theadmin | Duzchip: Lucid support in #ubuntu+1 | 10:18 |
| Duzchip | oh sorry | 10:18 |
| Duzchip | thanks | 10:18 |
| man0riaX | Morning | 10:21 |
| chelz | slacker-: googling for that brings up a lot of stuff | 10:21 |
| chelz | you might try seeing if there's a bug in launchpad around ext4 related to what you're experiencing | 10:21 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ok Flash seems to be working fine | 10:22 |
| chelz | Steppenwolf1: try youtube, play some games, make sure | 10:22 |
| Steppenwolf1 | I now have to install SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) | 10:22 |
| Steppenwolf1 | used to be managed by Adobe | 10:23 |
| theadmin | Steppenwolf1: You don't install them :/ Firefox opens them right away. You can edit them with The GIMP. | 10:23 |
| banshee_ | chelz: lol..... sound was muted xD | 10:23 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ohhh let me try | 10:23 |
| chelz | banshee_: aha, that's a good way to not have sound | 10:23 |
| chelz | banshee_: i take it the xconfig thing worked? | 10:24 |
| farsight | hi all | 10:24 |
| banshee_ | chelz: Sorry what are you referring to, the display question I had? | 10:24 |
| nino | hi all | 10:24 |
| chelz | banshee_: yeah, where nvidia settins wasn't working. i was asking if running xconfig fixed it | 10:25 |
| slacker- | chelz: yes, in fact so much that I didn't know where to start | 10:25 |
| theadmin | xconfig? Hm, that's something new :D | 10:26 |
| chelz | theadmin: sudo nvidia-xconfig | 10:26 |
| theadmin | (For me, that is) | 10:26 |
| banshee_ | chelz: Brb, and i havent tried yet :) | 10:26 |
| farsight | can anyone offer a simple explanation for the most effective way to autologin on xchat start up, where the nickserv name is farsight? | 10:26 |
| * theadmin haz an ATI video card, chelz | 10:26 | |
| chelz | banshee_: ah alright, keep me posted :) | 10:26 |
| farsight | I am somewhat confused by where I add /msg NickServ identify farsight <password> | 10:27 |
| chelz | theadmin: ah. well, nvidia does a decent job with their drivers currently. it's gonna suck if/when they ever start dropping support. | 10:27 |
| chelz | actually, i wonder what the level of support is for vdpau in the OSS driver | 10:27 |
| theadmin | vdpau? Video Driver Power Allocation Unit? (just a guess) | 10:27 |
| puliszka | yo yo yo reggelt | 10:28 |
| erUSUL | farsight: depends on the irc client you use. many have a dialog to just put you password | 10:28 |
| Steppenwolf1 | No they didnt work out with firefox | 10:28 |
| Steppenwolf1 | how do I edit them? | 10:28 |
| theadmin | Steppenwolf1: Hm. Wikipedia has a buncha svg images, all of them open fine | 10:28 |
| Steppenwolf1 | with the GIMP? | 10:28 |
| theadmin | Steppenwolf1: Yeah, GIMP can edit those allright | 10:28 |
| farsight | I'm logging in to freenode using the xchat client | 10:28 |
| iceroot | Steppenwolf1: for svg you will use inkscape | 10:28 |
| ringer | farsight - I (think) you can do a /msg anywhere - the point of the / is that noone else sees it in channel | 10:29 |
| chelz | could also try inkscape | 10:29 |
| chelz | hi5 iceroot | 10:29 |
| theadmin | iceroot: Huh, I'm sure i saw an option to save as SVG in GIMP | 10:29 |
| chelz | theadmin: it's a video decoding hardware acceleration thing | 10:29 |
| iceroot | theadmin: yes but gimp is not common for svg | 10:29 |
| Steppenwolf1 | ohh ok but those are dinamical images | 10:29 |
| chelz | farsight: a lot of clients have support for automatically doing the password thing for you in the options of servers you have setup to connect to | 10:30 |
| ringer | farsight if you want to test things out try #freenode channel | 10:30 |
| farsight | thanks for the info people | 10:30 |
| farsight | i'll give it a whirl | 10:30 |
| banshee_ | chelz: What would you suggest for some good things to get? | 10:30 |
| iceroot | theadmin: using svg with gimp is like surfing with the internet-explorer, you can do it but its a bad idea because there are better programs | 10:30 |
| Steppenwolf1 | I got this message Additional plugins are required to display all teh media on this page | 10:30 |
| chelz | banshee_: what kind of "things" | 10:30 |
| theadmin | iceroot: surfing with IE? No, that's more like sinking... or even worse. | 10:31 |
| banshee_ | chelz: Dunno just some helpful things that I might find helpful along the way in linux :) | 10:31 |
| iceroot | theadmin: but now you know what i mean :) | 10:31 |
| chelz | banshee_: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html and http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 10:31 |
| theadmin | iceroot: Well, for me gimp is one huge "o_O" anyway | 10:32 |
| banshee_ | chelz: I just installed a program I wanted called TinTin++ How do I run it from the terminal? | 10:32 |
| chelz | banshee_: also http://www.commandlinefu.com | 10:32 |
| csaba | how can I find out when was a file created? | 10:32 |

| SealedWithAKiss | I have connected a secondary monitor to my graphics card. The sharpness of the image on my original monitor has always been excellent, however since connecting the second monitor I have noticed a reduction in quality on my original monitor coupled with increased image quality on the monitor that I have added. I am using an ATI Radeon 4600 HD card with a monitor connected via VGA and another monitor connected vi | 10:34 |

| theadmin | banshee_: just the full program path (or if you are in directory with the prog, then... ./progfile) | 10:34 |
| chelz | banshee_: the name of the program usually. you can type the first few letters of a command and then hit the tab key to complete it. this is called tab completion | 10:34 |
| chelz | banshee_: tab completion also works in most irc clients for nicks | 10:34 |

| airtonix | iLisa, read the message ubottu gave you | 11:22 |
| bazhang | iLisa, ask a question | 11:22 |
| psycho_oreos | liveuser999, in other words you're not using pppd directly or even using wvdial for that matter | 11:22 |
| digifor | Also it freezes about the time I open the gnome terminal | 11:23 |
| iLisa | Okay, i installed ubunutu yesterday, everything worked fine. Now i just can't get my sound to work, and i've checked that it isn't muted or anything, anybody got a solution? My computers model: Compaq DC7100 (It's pretty old. :P) | 11:23 |
| Moral__ | yea, still not ther | 11:23 |
| airtonix | iLisa, it has a physical volume dial on the side ? | 11:23 |
| psycho_oreos | digifor, what about running livecd? does that work? | 11:24 |
| iLisa | No, it has built in speakers in the computer | 11:24 |
| liveuser999 | psycho_oreos, yes..only the network manager....added the dsl connection...and under fedora it works fine | 11:24 |
| iLisa | I installed SoundMAX for it to work on XP | 11:24 |
| digifor | Live cd is fine | 11:24 |
| airtonix | iLisa, that wasn't my question. | 11:24 |
| riktking | How do I configure wifi before gnome starts? | 11:24 |
| digifor | I also installed OpenSuse 11.2 on here with gnome also fine | 11:24 |
| chao06 | iLisa: has it worked on the liveCD? | 11:24 |
| raoul | Hi everyone, since this morning my CPU is overloaded by a process "perl" launched by root, I keep to kill -9 it but it is relaunched everytime and i can't manage to find witch script it is, any idea anyone ? thanx | 11:25 |
| iLisa | No. :\ | 11:25 |
| kristof78 | does anyone know a tutorial how to rebuild and move a mdadm raid5 | 11:25 |
| kristof78 | I've searched all over and found nothing | 11:25 |
| iLisa | Dosn't even play a sound when i turn the computer on. | 11:25 |
| digifor | I would prefer to put ubuntu on this box because it is for a guy who is not into computing. It is easier to locate people who know debian/ubuntu for help. | 11:26 |
| psycho_oreos | liveuser999, sounds like a network manager issue under karmic I suppose, there's not much other alternatives that I can think of apart from getting another hardware to sit in between the splitter (for rj45) and the computer, get something like router to sit in between and from there obtain IP address, etc | 11:26 |
| airtonix | iLisa, right click the sound icon in the notification tray and click on the hardware tab, then write here the options you see in the drop down menu when you click it (at the bottom) | 11:26 |
| psycho_oreos | digifor, and which version of ubuntu is this? | 11:26 |
| obscurant1st | chelz, i had some connectivity problems, you still there? | 11:26 |
| chao06 | iLisa: what's the sound card listed when you run 'lspci'? | 11:26 |
| liveuser999 | psycho_oreos, yes...a router would be my only chance...:| | 11:26 |
| digifor | 9.10 | 11:27 |
| airtonix | iLisa, i would ask you to take a screen shot of that but gnome wont let you use print screen when you have a dialog control widget open | 11:27 |
| obscurant1st | psycho_oreos, I had some connectivity problems, you guys gave me any replies? | 11:27 |
| liveuser999 | psycho_oreos, until then i have to change to another distro | 11:27 |
| airtonix | iLisa, or you can pastebin the output of lspci -vv | 11:27 |
| psycho_oreos | liveuser999, it'd probably work a bit more ideal I suppose because there isn't much of other ways except to somehow mess with wvdial | 11:27 |
| iLisa | sure one minute | 11:27 |
| liveuser999 | psycho_oreos, thanks for your help | 11:28 |
| psycho_oreos | obscurant1st, have you actually tried choosing another repo mirror yet? | 11:28 |
| obscurant1st | psycho_oreos, how can i do it? | 11:28 |
| obscurant1st | choosing another repo mirror? | 11:28 |
| psycho_oreos | liveuser999, no worries, can't help you there much, even if there's a fix you still need active connection to sort it out :/ | 11:28 |
| airtonix | iLisa, the widget im talking about on the hardware tab is labeled "profile", what i would do first in your case is open up rhythmbox and play a song, then change the option selected in the profile dropdown menu of the hardware tab in the volumen preferences | 11:29 |
| AsoxOsolox | can i speak fresh please, i have problem with bluetooth | 11:29 |
| bullgard | '~$ avahi-browser -a' outputs a line: "iChat Presence local". What does this mean? | 11:29 |
| psycho_oreos | obscurant1st, use synaptic to change the mirror | 11:29 |
| iLisa | I've already done that airtonix. :\ | 11:29 |
| obscurant1st | ok let me check it | 11:29 |

| AsoxOsolox | ok thank u psycho_oreos | 11:29 |
| amar | hey guys ... cpu usage on my System goes upto 56-60% for few applications like firefox & totem player | 11:30 |
| psycho_oreos | AsoxOsolox, no worries | 11:30 |
| amar | is it something related to X | 11:30 |
| iLisa | one minute, i can't remember let me do it again. | 11:30 |

| chao06 | iLisa: mm... i'm not even seeing your soundcard in here | 11:30 |
| airtonix | iLisa, ok one minute. | 11:30 |

| airtonix | chao06, line 127 | 11:31 |
| liveuser999 | psycho_oreos, tried, the same | 11:31 |
| airtonix | chao06, i mean 116 | 11:31 |

| airtonix | err 113 | 11:31 |
| amar | can anyone help me over here | 11:31 |
| chao06 | airtonix: just found it : ) | 11:31 |
| airtonix | iLisa, it has a driver loaded and in use. just need pulse-audio to see it. first you should confirm that pulse audio is running from the multimedia preferences application. | 11:32 |
| airtonix | iLisa, i mean running as in handling multimedia from the system. | 11:32 |
| psycho_oreos | liveuser999, with lucid? hmm it probably is network manager plaguing both karmic and lucid, I don't know and somewhat doubt there's wvdial, but with some knowledge and hope you might be able to get it to work | 11:32 |
| obscurant1st | psycho_oreos, ok | 11:32 |
| airtonix | iLisa, one second while i get the command to run | 11:33 |
| iLisa | okay thanks | 11:33 |
| iLisa | i'm really confused, since i switched over from XP to ubuntu just like that | 11:33 |
| liveuser999 | psycho_oreos, i hope so too | 11:33 |
| chao06 | iLisa: the driver for that card is in the default install... which version are you running? desktop, nbr, server? | 11:33 |
| iLisa | desktop | 11:33 |

| iLisa | chao06, dekstop | 11:34 |
| amar | seems everyone is busy over here | 11:34 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, might want to try other browser and media players | 11:35 |
| chao06 | iLisa: do you even get the startup sounds? like the drum thing in loading the login screen? | 11:35 |
| iLisa | No i dont chao06 | 11:35 |
| amar | hmmm | 11:36 |
| amar | vlc also took 56% | 11:36 |
| chao06 | iLisa: does your computer have a headphones out? maybe try that... | 11:37 |
| airtonix | iLisa, ok run : gstreamer-properties | 11:37 |
| iLisa | chao06, one minute let me do what air said | 11:37 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, what sort of CPU is this? | 11:37 |
| obscurant1st | psycho_oreos, ok i have done that, i choose somehting from singapore, which came when i clicked on choose best server | 11:37 |

| airtonix | options* | 11:37 |
| obscurant1st | psycho_oreos, now what should i do | 11:37 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, like the speed of processor | 11:37 |
| amar | one sec | 11:37 |
| psycho_oreos | obscurant1st, hit ok/apply and answer yes to the next question from synaptic | 11:37 |
| airtonix | iLisa, also if you want try each option and use the test buttons | 11:38 |

| iLisa | There is one on windows | 11:47 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, hmm I suppose its already using the native driver included, have you tried this on another computer to see if it has the same effect? | 11:47 |
| airtonix | iLisa, expand on 'security client' | 11:48 |
| amar | no | 11:48 |
| amar | but it almost gets hung while watching a movie on totem or vlc | 11:48 |
| iLisa | what do you mean with that airtonix | 11:48 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, and which version of ubuntu is this? | 11:48 |
| digifor | psycho_oreos, this freeze issue seems to be a gnome bug. I am not having any problem in LXDE | 11:48 |

| amar | or say while u try to click on any other video on youtube it just stops responding for a long time | 11:48 |

| amar | but after reading the mess it creates i decided to use nvidia kernel modules provided by ubuntu itself | 11:51 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, probably lot more ideal if you went through hardware drivers for that matter, I'd say it could be a codecs issue somewhere along the lines | 11:51 |
| amar | codec issue can be with totem but waht abt vlc | 11:52 |
| bullgard | '~$ avahi-browser -a' outputs a line: "iChat Presence local". What does this mean? | 11:52 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, could be the same issue or the output driver is slow | 11:52 |
| amar | even if say it abt a player then to firefox shouldn't take so much amt of X while playing or switching to another video on youtube | 11:52 |
| amar | will have to really go through the docs | 11:53 |

| Kazz|Away | Just installed ubuntu in a VM ... need to update video drivers first thing (800x600 res sux) have gone to nvidia website ... need flash player ... can someone recommend ... Adobe VS Swfdec vs Gnash ? | 11:55 |
| iLisa | want me to screen it to you airtonix ? | 11:56 |
| airtonix | iLisa, continue button in the runescape client or the bot client ? | 11:56 |
| amar | currently checking with smplayer if it works then well n good | 11:56 |
| amar | may be thats the issue he already has google chrome installed onthe system | 11:56 |
| psycho_oreos | Kazz|Away, under VM, nvidia driver doesn't work, you need to install whatever client tools that's available for your VM software | 11:56 |
| iLisa | the bot client airtonix | 11:56 |
| airtonix | iLisa, does runescape work without trying to use the bot? (this will confirm you have java installed) | 11:56 |
| iLisa | Yes | 11:57 |
| iLisa | It does work, and yes i have java installed | 11:57 |
| amar | hey psycho ya onething i forgot to tell u | 11:57 |
| airtonix | iLisa, ok because i dont have runescape i can't do anything else for you... maybe someone else here can. | 11:57 |
| amar | it might be that firefox profile has some issue n totem has some codecs issue | 11:57 |
| amar | it can be this way around .... | 11:57 |
| amar | becoz other apps looks fine | 11:58 |
| iLisa | okay. :( | 11:58 |
| airtonix | iLisa, i think the bot creator has not forseen all possibilities for the client when run on variations on linux. | 11:58 |
| iLisa | Oh, i'll contact them then. :) | 11:58 |
| psycho_oreos | amar, if you mean firefox as in when loading youtube pages for example or any pages with multimedia, firefox parses on to the decoder via plugins | 11:58 |
| Kazz|Away | psycho_oreos ... aight ... will look at that issue next but first ... flash player? Adobe vs gnash vs swfdec ? | 11:58 |
| Lord_Chewbakka | hallo i cant run my .bin files even after chmod -x, what do i do wrong? | 11:59 |
| psycho_oreos | Kazz|Away, use the ubuntu's way | 11:59 |

| iLisa | Thanks for the help guys | 11:59 |
| amar | hehe | 11:59 |
| psycho_oreos | Lord_Chewbakka, that .bin file probably needs to be started in console not just via double clicking | 12:00 |

| psycho_oreos | Lord_Chewbakka, you need something like fuseiso or cdemu | 12:06 |
| xubunto | I'm a very jang: just wnat to use dvb-s | 12:06 |
| psycho_oreos | bredoto, yes, if its a hardware thing you might want to try ##hardware | 12:06 |
| psycho_oreos | xubunto, that made no sense | 12:07 |
| xubunto | ok. | 12:07 |
| xubunto | i installed and searshing for dvb-s apliocation | 12:08 |

| bredoto | psycho_oreos, thnk againe | 12:08 |
| xubunto | have all driver loaded, but still get no sound | 12:08 |
| psycho_oreos | Lord_Chewbakka, I think fuseiso works with a few formats, but cdemu is the closest thing under linux that you can get which is like daemon tools or alcohol under windows | 12:09 |

| xubunto | all sound is seeing by system and is active | 12:10 |
| psycho_oreos | Lord_Chewbakka, word of warning, cdemu messes around with pulseaudio under jaunty, no wording if its resolved under karmic | 12:10 |
| xubunto | i have a MAA69vm and hd4770 | 12:10 |
| xubunto | all of them is active, | 12:11 |
| xubunto | but stil have no sound. | 12:11 |
| psycho_oreos | xubunto, checked sound levels to see if they're not muted? even under alsamixer? | 12:11 |
| xubunto | no | 12:11 |
| xubunto | is not | 12:11 |
| xubunto | video player go without sound | 12:11 |
| psycho_oreos | what programs are you using for audio playback? | 12:11 |
| xubunto | when i use the mp3 he give me a inf that not can be palyed | 12:11 |
| Lord_Chewbakka | psycho_oreos: what is pulseaudio and jaunty? | 12:12 |
| psycho_oreos | Lord_Chewbakka, pulseaudio is sound daemon and jaunty is a ubuntu release (9.04) | 12:12 |
| === flossk is now known as gent_flossk | ||
| xubunto | when i'm prove to install all update, still do not have sound | 12:12 |

| xubunto | ? | 12:13 |
| psycho_oreos | xubunto, which programs have you tried to play, which formats? | 12:13 |
| Lord_Chewbakka | psycho_oreos: does pulseaudio and jaunty come with the standard ubuntu 9.10? | 12:13 |
| xubunto | kaffeine and video player | 12:14 |
| psycho_oreos | Lord_Chewbakka, pulseaudio? yes, jaunty? no because that's older release | 12:14 |
| psycho_oreos | xubunto, hmm I'd give vlc a go | 12:14 |

| xubunto | yes | 12:15 |
| xubunto | in another part. | 12:15 |
| Lord_Chewbakka | psycho_oreos: ok then it should be no trouble | 12:15 |
| xubunto | why stil do not give me permission to install some of config? | 12:15 |
| psycho_oreos | Lord_Chewbakka, no, its a precaution that you have to take in mind, it affected jaunty (9.04) and it might still affect karmic (9.10) | 12:15 |
| rumpsy | lemme have something as good as dreamweaver in ubuntu | 12:15 |
| psycho_oreos | xubunto, install what config? | 12:16 |
| xubunto | about kaffeine plugins | 12:16 |
| jeeez | how do i disable nvidia drivers? my system wont boot now, after i removed the g-card. | 12:16 |
| Lord_Chewbakka | psycho_oreos: ok whats the worst thing that could happen? | 12:16 |
| psycho_oreos | xubunto, you're being very vague... maybe you need root permissions to install it? | 12:16 |
| xubunto | maby | 12:17 |
| xubunto | .. | 12:17 |
| jeeez | anyone? | 12:17 |
| psycho_oreos | jeeez, hmm try recovery mode, chroot it and aptitude remove nvidia | 12:17 |
| xubunto | how can get this? | 12:17 |
| chao06 | rumpsy: aparently dreamweaver works pretty ok through wine... http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=183 | 12:17 |

| phoenixandthor | rumpsy: dreamweaver is a proprietary product from adobe, which mostly generates flash content. | 12:18 |
| jeeez | psycho_oreos: it'll fix the kernel loading thingy too, where it loads the nvidia modules? | 12:18 |
| karim_frl | there is who speak french | 12:18 |
| phoenixandthor | If you want something a lot more standards compliant, I recomend bluefish | 12:18 |
| psycho_oreos | jeeez, no if you went through recovery mode, you should be able to bypass loading of nvidia drivers.. if not you'll have to use livecd, chroot, and go from there | 12:19 |

| === gent_flossk is now known as alket | ||
| Alphos | i thought it might be bios-related, but after a bios flash nothing has changed : the fan still stops running right after i give my password | 12:41 |

| Alphos | GPU 57°C and rising, kernel panic when it hits 62 to 65°C, i doubt it s3r3n1t7 ;) | 12:42 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Alphos, my pc at home doesn't need a fan to be used, so was jst wonderin ... but yeh, at those temps it should've kicked in ages ago | 12:42 |
| Guest | set the BISO, don't set the "Smart Fan" may be better. | 12:43 |
| Alphos | no access to that | 12:43 |
| Alphos | nothing about fans in the bios - or perhaps in the last version, i actually didn't check for that one | 12:43 |
| jdv | so it seems my second drive is busted :/ | 12:43 |
| Alphos | but in the previous version, no mention of fans whatsoever | 12:44 |
| jdv | is there any alternative filesystem to attempt to load it in which might get past the bad superblock error? I tried ext2, ext3, ext4 | 12:45 |

| joaopinto | jdv, bad superblock means serious corruption | 12:45 |

| Alphos | see ya soon if there's no mention of it again ^^' | 12:46 |

| jeeez | how to reconfigure x.org config from root shell? i want to stop it from using nvidia and use the normal dispaly instead. | 12:47 |
| Guest | init 3, and "nvidia-config-display diable"will stop it. | 12:48 |
| chao06 | jeeez: the generic driver is called vesa... you should be able to find the driver selection under the screen section | 12:48 |
| chao06 | jeeez: (in xorg.conf) | 12:49 |
| jeeez | chao06: okay, let me try that out! | 12:49 |
| chao06 | jeeez: the default ubuntu install doesn't have a xorg.conf... you'll need to generate one, run ' | 12:50 |

| chao06 | frootee: don't use gnome | 12:51 |
| Alphos | nope, no mention of smart-fan in the bios menu | 12:51 |

| geekphreak | Pici: howdy :) | 12:55 |
| frootee | chao06, will it make things more difficult? | 12:55 |
| chao06 | frootee: it's different than gnome, and takes a bit of setting up... if you want something closer to gnome, you can use xfce4 | 12:55 |
| frootee | that only saves you like 50 mb of memory though | 12:56 |
| chao06 | frootee: i've found that memory doesn't tend to be the issue, it's usually processor speed | 12:57 |
| chao06 | frootee: my machines usually run steady around 150-200 Mb of RAM | 12:57 |

| DNil | hi. can anyone please tell me how to run a .so file? | 13:02 |
| geekphreak | chao06: ok just curious :) | 13:03 |
| chao06 | frootee: and there's nothing we can do about flash x_x | 13:03 |
| dene14 | hello guys, can anyone help me with htb shaping discipline on linux ? | 13:03 |
| strange | if its libfish.so you can /load it in irssi | 13:03 |
| strange | usually its not executable | 13:03 |
| frootee | chao06, what about using no-script? | 13:03 |
| chao06 | DNil: .so files are plugins... | 13:03 |
| kmpm | DNil, .so files are not ment to be executed directly | 13:03 |
| Traveler | bonjour | 13:03 |
| chao06 | frootee: that would definitely help : ) | 13:03 |
| Traveler | hello | 13:03 |
| frootee | ok | 13:04 |
| kmpm | DNil, they are like .dll files in W | 13:04 |
| frootee | thanks | 13:04 |
| Traveler | Does anyone use Boost::Python under ubuntu ? | 13:04 |
| chao06 | frootee: no problem : ) | 13:04 |
| DNil | its flash player . i just downloaded it from adobe site.how can i install flash player then? | 13:04 |
| Ziber | !package snp | 13:04 |
| Ziber | !snp | 13:04 |
| Ziber | Anyone know any Ubuntu programs for TTY snooping? | 13:05 |
| chao06 | DNil: you should get a .deb from the adobe site for that... | 13:05 |
| kmpm | DNil, it's a flash player plugin for firefox I guess.... Just put it in the right folder and FF will pick it up.... but as chao06 said, there are better ways | 13:05 |
| Slart | Traveler: probably.. you can check pop.ubuntu.com if you want the exact numbers | 13:05 |
| DNil | i looked for it.but they are only providing a .deb file for ubuntu 8.04. will it work? | 13:06 |
| chao06 | DNil: there's a dropdown menu to select your distro, and it gives you a package for you to install | 13:06 |
| Slart | Traveler: sorry.. that | 13:06 |
| Slart | Traveler: sorry.. that's popcon.ubuntu.com | 13:06 |
| DNil | k.checking it. | 13:06 |
| chao06 | DNil: yeah, nothing's really changed all that much | 13:06 |

| Dr_Willis | 'tty' is not ssh :) | 13:09 |
| Ziber | right. a pts snooper is what i want then | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | check the tools docs/homepage perhaps? theres alternative login variants also i recall. | 13:10 |

| Ziber | is there such a thing? | 13:11 |
| allu2 | Ziber, you ask from me? | 13:11 |
| Ziber | im asking anyone. | 13:12 |
| AdigaG | hello all =D | 13:12 |
| Ziber | allu2: would you happen to know any tho? | 13:12 |
| AdigaG | Can Any One Help Me | 13:12 |
| allu2 | Ziber, dunno, i tough you asked me about omnibook module | 13:13 |
| maginot | !ask| AdigaG | 13:13 |
| ubottu | AdigaG: 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. :-) | 13:13 |
| AdigaG | lol | 13:13 |
| geekphreak | maginot: howdy | 13:13 |
| allu2 | Ziber, what are you looking for? | 13:13 |
| maginot | hey | 13:13 |
| AdigaG | I need Shell Or BNC Free Can I Find Here Free !? | 13:14 |
| bazhang | AdigaG, no | 13:14 |
| bazhang | Ziber, why do you wish to snoop on ssh | 13:14 |
| AdigaG | Then Where Can Find ?! | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | AdigaG: google is your friend. | 13:14 |
| bazhang | AdigaG, no idea, its offtopic here | 13:14 |
| maginot | AdigaG, stop writing with camel style, please. And what you mean with shell ? Don't you have one(many) already? ;) | 13:15 |
| thrope | trying to run an installer off a cd and get permission denied even though execute bit is set - I think its a mount option for cds isnt it - but I can't remember what I need to remount? | 13:15 |
| Ziber | bazhang: Mainly to help people do things, it would allow us to work together, watching what each other is doing, without having to use screen and be on the same account | 13:15 |
| AdigaG | No | 13:15 |
| AdigaG | I don't Have :P | 13:15 |
| IdleOne | maginot: don't be impolite and what he means by shell is a account on a remote server where he can run a bot instance or a bnc amoung other things | 13:15 |
| chrisw | hey all, what actually triggers logrotate to run? | 13:16 |
| chrisw | is it a cron job? | 13:16 |
| thrope | oh got it mount -o remount,exec | 13:16 |
| maginot | IdleOne, impolite, do you know what you are talking about? | 13:16 |
| alveraan | chrisw, yes | 13:16 |
| Slart | chrisw: isn't it a cronjob? I seem to recall seeing it somewhere | 13:16 |
| neure | if i have usb sdcard reader and i plug it in, where should i see the device? | 13:16 |
| neure | (using console, no X) | 13:16 |
| IdleOne | maginot: but yeah I see what you mean by Camel Style...so umm forget about me implying you were being impolite | 13:16 |
| chrisw | yeah /etc/cron.daily/logrotate | 13:17 |
| geekphreak | neure: normally /media | 13:17 |
| chrisw | 'cept it isnt on oen of our boxes... | 13:17 |
| maginot | IdleOne, np | 13:17 |
| neure | geekphreak, it doesn't show up there, i dunno why, maybe because im running ubuntu on vmware | 13:17 |
| geekphreak | neure: is it even being detected in vmware, try just sudo mount | 13:17 |
| Slart | chrisw: isn't logrotate a single package? tried reinstalling it? | 13:18 |
| neure | i got some text into root console | 13:18 |
| neure | about sdb | 13:18 |
| chrisw | it's there | 13:18 |
| geekphreak | neure: where it says it is mounted? | 13:18 |
| chrisw | adn everything looks fine | 13:18 |
| neure | assuming drive cache: write through | 13:18 |
| geekphreak | neure: it shows the path too | 13:18 |
| neure | it doesnt say where it is mounted | 13:18 |
| allu2 | if i may ask again, how i could install omnibook-module to Karmic? i readed it enables changing brightness of the screen, background light on and off ,bluethooth and one touch keys, but it doesn't seem to be in ubuntus repo | 13:18 |
| Slart | chrisw: but no logrotate entry in /etc/cron.daily/ ? | 13:18 |
| geekphreak | try to manually mount it | 13:18 |
| chrisw | no, it's there | 13:18 |
| neure | mount .. err, what? | 13:19 |
| chrisw | when I do logrotate -d, it says the files should be rotated | 13:19 |
| chrisw | but then it doesn't happen | 13:19 |
| chrisw | where does logrotate log to? | 13:19 |
| Slart | chrisw: hmm.. running logrotate -d on my system just gives me the help text | 13:19 |
| Alphos | and here's another kernel panic... | 13:20 |
| chrisw | logrotate -d /etc/logrotate.conf :-P | 13:20 |
| Alphos | if anyone has an idea of how to force my fan to run, he'd be a peach to tell me :D | 13:20 |
| geekphreak | Alphos: turn it on :p | 13:21 |
| chrisw | when does stuff in /etc/cron.daily get run? | 13:21 |
| jeeez | does compiz work without a graphics card? | 13:21 |
| hiexpo | get libsensors | 13:21 |
| Vigo | allu2: I saw a Contrast thing in Software Center under Themes and Tweaks... | 13:21 |
| Slart | chrisw: hmm.. are you running that as a regular user? no sudo? | 13:21 |
| dsl558 | use two power wires | 13:21 |
| allu2 | Alphos, something like echo 1/0 (don't remember) > /proc/acpi/fan/state | 13:21 |
| bazhang | dsl558, to do what | 13:21 |
| geekphreak | chrisw: question for you | 13:22 |
| allu2 | Alphos, don't remember right path so try tab compleate | 13:22 |
| geekphreak | chrisw: dont you get mails via logrotate | 13:22 |
| allu2 | Vigo, i check... | 13:22 |
| Alphos | libsensors already installed | 13:22 |
| Ziber | is there any tool in ubuntu (besides screen) that will allow me to work together with someone, each being able to watch what the other is doing on SSH? | 13:22 |
| chrisw | geekphreak: I'm fairly sure logrotate is not an mta, perhaps you meant to ask something else? | 13:23 |
| Slart | Ziber: nothing that isn't excessively complicated.. vnc over ssh to a common desktop with gnome-terminal maximised would fit that description =) | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Ziber: there were some alternatives to screen. that worked basically the same way. but i cant recall their names. 'twin' used tobeone . but i dont think its in the repos any more | 13:24 |
| chrisw | Slart: I'm running that as root | 13:24 |
| Ziber | :/ | 13:24 |
| Slart | Ziber: although I'm not entirely sure if vnc can have multiple clients.. | 13:24 |
| Alphos | allu2 : /proc/acpi/fan/state doesn't exist | 13:24 |
| allu2 | Vigo, under what? there is no such tab :P | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | vnc can do multi clients.. it can get confuseing however i recall. | 13:24 |
| Alphos | /proc/acpi/fan is actually an empty dir | 13:24 |
| allu2 | Alphos, i told you i don't remember path | 13:24 |

| allu2 | Alphos, then i don't know :( | 13:25 |
| Alphos | acer aspire 6930G to be accurate | 13:25 |
| allu2 | Alphos, there is any bios setting ? | 13:25 |
| Vigo | allu2: Whoops, I am on 10b, let me look at the 9.10 repositories. | 13:25 |
| Alphos | none related to the fan | 13:25 |
| allu2 | Vigo, :P | 13:25 |
| maginot | vianocturna85, are you sure isn't any firewall blocking your access? | 13:25 |
| geekphreak | chrisw: dont quote me on this, but i thik it had a feature , where it sent log info to root@localhost , you could set it up | 13:26 |
| allu2 | Alphos, and to cpu? | 13:26 |
| Alphos | none either | 13:26 |
| Alphos | Health menu is absent | 13:26 |
| vianocturna85 | well not on my end theres not, maybe on school firewall, but the windows users are able to use their standard mail app | 13:26 |
| Curly_Q | Vianocturna85 most likely there is a port block at school. | 13:26 |
| allu2 | Alphos, ok :( sorry i can't help then | 13:26 |

| Curly_Q | Vianocturna85 keep in mind that when you are at home your SMTP and servername and port is different at school. | 13:31 |
| JmZ | ok i have two bugs i've noticed. One, occasionally messages from a contact show as being from me. Two, messages containing newlines fail to be displayed. | 13:31 |

| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, do you have the correct time zone ? | 13:31 |
| JmZ | no activity on that bug | 13:31 |
| maginot | vianocturna85, well, if you can connect normally at home (I suppose you are using a notebook) and on your school you have internet access with this notebook but can't access your email some block is happing on your school, maybe the other users who are being able to access are using normal smtp/pop/imap ports which gmail doesn't use | 13:31 |
| vianocturna85 | geekphreak: I thought that since it was IMAP, so I changed that so it was POP3...didnt make a difference | 13:31 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, well i am in USA so i selected that one | 13:31 |
| vianocturna85 | maginot: Ah, i never knew that, I thought Gmail was using the normal | 13:32 |
| geekphreak | vianocturna85: do you get any error message, ? | 13:32 |
| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, do you dual boot ? | 13:32 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, is the location option suppose to be for the timezone? | 13:32 |

| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, ok, and also check if you have ntc | 13:38 |
| Curly_Q | Vianocturna85 another thing to keep in mind that just because you can log onto any port at home, many IPs use their own ports. I had that happen with my IP. They never told me that Comcast SMTP port was on port 587. | 13:38 |
| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, why do you have to restart ?? s/ntc/utc | 13:38 |

| bjorn_ | hi, I updated to Lucid beta 2. and it totally screwed my computer up. I'd like to do a clean install (format entire disk). can this process be started from within Ubuntu, because i dont find the CD bootable | 13:42 |
| OsamaK | Dr_Willis, What is it called? | 13:43 |
| geekphreak | bjorn cd would be nice | 13:43 |
| === mpoz2 is now known as hellp | ||
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: type ecryptfs.. does that mean its encrypted? | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | OsamaK: no idea. all i did was bookmark the site i saw it at | 13:43 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, check hardware drivers in admin | 13:43 |
| bjorn_ | geekphreak, yea I got the CD. is it supposed to be bootable? | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | OsamaK: thats why delicious.com uses tags :) to organize things. | 13:43 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, well seem like it was just because the ntp thing was not installed | 13:43 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: thats for your /home/username/.Private ? | 13:43 |
| SeekTruth | Shirl: how I install drivers for my onboard Nvidia 8400? | 13:43 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: yes | 13:44 |
| OsamaK | Dr_Willis, I don't use it. | 13:44 |
| bjorn_ | because it doesn't really do anything when rebooting | 13:44 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: sound right? | 13:44 |
| geekphreak | bjorn_ yes ubuntu cd is bootable , mae sure cdrom is 1st boot device in BIOS | 13:44 |
| Curly_Q | Bjorn if you go to Barts Boot Disk do a Google on it you can download multiple floppy bootable disks that is if you have a floppy drive. | 13:44 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: its encrypted | 13:44 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, time is back to normal now | 13:44 |
| bjorn_ | i believe it is, but im gonna restart and try again | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | bjorn_: how did you burn the cd also? | 13:44 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, thank you for helping me | 13:44 |
| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, :) when booting also check your system time, on shutdown, clock sync with system clock, i.e cmos | 13:44 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: so if someone steals my laptop, they can never access all files in my home? | 13:44 |
| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, np | 13:44 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, first thing i adjusted was the bios time XD | 13:45 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: yep its a security check, need password ;) | 13:45 |
| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, get your battery changed then maybe :) | 13:45 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: cool cause i have many private docs etc | 13:45 |
| Shirl | 1472 people in this channel? | 13:45 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: there will be another person using my laptop, shall I create a new user? | 13:45 |
| booksbuggy | why is this xchat messenger cutting the last word, or letters off O.O?! | 13:46 |
| dsl558 | pirate docs? | 13:46 |
| Shirl | when i was here last year there was bearly 150 | 13:46 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: kool, other good tools there too , which you can use within ubuntu to secure files | 13:46 |
| SeekTruth | Shirl: why wont u answer me? | 13:46 |
| Curly_Q | Good to see you Dr Willis. I hope you are having a nice day. Also glad to meet you GeekPhreak. :) | 13:46 |
| bazhang | dsl558, what do you mean | 13:46 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: where good tools to secure? | 13:46 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, i would reccomend samba | 13:46 |
| geekphreak | Curly_Q: like :) | 13:46 |
| SeekTruth | Shirl: whats samba? | 13:46 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, this computer s pretty new so i don't think the battery is dead yet XD | 13:47 |
| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, ok | 13:47 |
| dsl558 | samba is far from security | 13:47 |
| SeekTruth | can I place my home on desktop? | 13:47 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: yup create a new account for other users, give him limited perm. | 13:47 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, if you have files on on box you want to move to another, i would make a folder say, on the desktop of one, put the files i want to share in it, then right click on the folder and select share | 13:47 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, now i am going to check what the heck is up with this x chat messenger :P | 13:47 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: samba aint for security, its for file sharing | 13:47 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, cutting offf lettersa nd words in sentences | 13:47 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: you need something like cryptkeeper | 13:48 |
| topland | hi | 13:48 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: lets say the other user accesses bad websites, porm websites etc... can he infect my username too? | 13:48 |
| lfuser-041 | hi | 13:48 |
| arvind_khadri | booksbuggy, check your preferences and stuff | 13:48 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: it iant windows lol | 13:48 |
| geekphreak | aint* | 13:48 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: i thought u said my HOME was enrypted, so why I need cryptkeeper? | 13:48 |
| topland | any one can help me for install in openmoko on ubuntu | 13:48 |
| Curly_Q | SeekTruth, most malicious web sites such as porn sites are focused on Windows applications. | 13:49 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: it is, just incase if you want other user to have same account, you can use cryptkeeper to password locked r custom files/folder | 13:49 |
| SeekTruth | Curly_Q: so my other user cannot infect me at all even if he visited very nasty porn websites? | 13:49 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: why? can they infect me? | 13:50 |
| arvind_khadri | topland, openmoko was a open source project with Linux as the OS for mobile. afaik its not a package | 13:50 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, feels strange when i start this thing up in chinese XD | 13:50 |
| geekphreak | nope SeekTruth | 13:50 |
| booksbuggy | arvind_khadri, okey dokey i am off later | 13:50 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: can I place a link to my HOME on the deskstop? | 13:50 |
| Curly_Q | SeekTruth, let us put this way, If you have any user, that is considered a SHELL account. True? OK then it is isolated from the root shell. | 13:50 |
| topland | arvind_khadri i have install openmoko but now want able to connect with pc any more | 13:51 |
| SeekTruth | Curly_Q: eh? :P | 13:51 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: you sure can | 13:51 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: how? :P | 13:51 |
| arvind_khadri | topland, you mean you have a openmoko phone and you want to connect to the pc ? | 13:51 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: you can create it manually :p or use tools like gtweakui :p | 13:51 |
| geekphreak | be right back | 13:52 |
| topland | yes arvin_khadri | 13:52 |
| Curly_Q | One of the nice advantages of a user account even in Windows is that it is isolated from Root or Administrator privileges. | 13:52 |
| arvind_khadri | topland, you can use wammu/gaamu | 13:52 |
| Shirl | how can i hid the mouse pointer when firefox is in full screen? | 13:52 |
| topland | from where i can get that | 13:52 |
| Curly_Q | If a user account gets a virus, just delete the account and create a new account or in Linux a new user or shell. | 13:53 |
| jrib | Shirl: not exactly what you asked but look at unclutter | 13:53 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: how I create it manusally? | 13:53 |
| arvind_khadri | topland, from the ubuntu repository, <<sudo aptitude install wammu>> do that in a terminal | 13:53 |
| Shirl | jrib, i tried unclutter, doesnt seem to work | 13:53 |
| jrib | Shirl: how did you try? | 13:54 |
| Shirl | jrib, unclutter -display :0.0 -idle 2 | 13:54 |
| Shirl | jrib, but i am accessing that box via vnc | 13:54 |
| Curly_Q | By way of proper permissions a user or any account cannot cause a virus if root is isolated. | 13:54 |
| jrib | Shirl: I see | 13:54 |
| Shirl | jrib, i dont have a screen for it yet | 13:55 |
| topland | thanks sir arvind_khadri | 13:56 |
| arvind_khadri | topland, np, am not sir!! :) | 13:56 |
| Curly_Q | Shirl, why would you not want to see the mouse pointer when using VNC? Is it that you don't want anyone to see your activities? | 13:57 |
| SeekTruth | I have a text file on my desktop, but whenever I click to open it, a window pops up asking if i want to run the file or open it. How can I stop this annoying box? | 13:57 |
| Curly_Q | SeekTruth, it just may be that the .txt file is not a .txt but an .exe file. | 13:59 |
| === FutFutFut is now known as Futurity | ||
| SeekTruth | Curly_Q: no. its called data.txt | 13:59 |
| indus | SeekTruth, yeah its a linux thing, change in properties | 13:59 |
| SeekTruth | Curly_Q: how do I tell Ubuntu to open it as text? | 13:59 |
| Bohemian | how hard is setting up cvs? | 13:59 |
| SeekTruth | indus: what properties where? | 13:59 |
| Curly_Q | SeekTruth the next thing is that rename the .txt to .doc and see if that works. | 13:59 |
| indus | SeekTruth, are you on windows? | 14:00 |
| SeekTruth | indus: ubuntu | 14:00 |
| indus | SeekTruth, so if you set file of that type to open with something, it probably wont ask you again | 14:00 |
| Curly_Q | Drag that file to Gnome text reader. | 14:00 |
| SeekTruth | Curly_Q: that was bad idea :( now it opens in openoffice which I dont want | 14:01 |
| indus | SeekTruth, so otherwise it opens with terminal or can run if its a script etc | 14:01 |
| geekphreak | back | 14:01 |
| SeekTruth | indus: i did, but its still asking | 14:01 |
| Curly_Q | Open Office is a great program. That was my next suggestion. | 14:01 |
| Shirl | Curly_Q, soz the phone went, <rolls-eyes> NO, I intend to have a display, i have made webpages and have firefox add-on to make it full-screen but the stoopid mouse pointer is visible right in the middle of my wonderful display | 14:02 |
| Curly_Q | Check file permissions. | 14:02 |
| Kasm279 | was the i865 graphicsc bug un-broken in karmic? | 14:02 |
| SeekTruth | Curly_Q: I fixed it.. I right click on txt file, chose properties and unselected the "execute" | 14:02 |
| Curly_Q | Glad to see that SeekTruth. :) | 14:02 |
| SeekTruth | indus: fixed | 14:03 |
| indus | SeekTruth, yeah i told u its there | 14:03 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: are you running ubuntu for first time? | 14:03 |
| SeekTruth | indus: no u didnt say to unselect "execute" lol | 14:03 |
| indus | yeah | 14:03 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: just installed it | 14:03 |
| indus | somewhere in properties though so its fine | 14:03 |
| indus | :D | 14:03 |
| Curly_Q | Shirl, is this program like a screen recorder? | 14:03 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: welcome to ubuntu side ;) | 14:04 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: tossed vista. But now I have challenges... now I cannot play BF2142, cannot access my mobile phone and my webcam :P | 14:04 |
| Shirl | Curly_Q, no, this karmic box i am setting up, has no monitor currently, when i drag it down stairs to the pet shop i will plug in the hdtv | 14:04 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: and now I cannot dial out using my VOIP :P | 14:05 |
| Kasm279 | SeekTruth: instal wine | 14:05 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: i can do 2 of the things you said :p | 14:05 |
| === nibbier is now known as nibbIer | ||
| SeekTruth | Kasm279: ive heard bad things about wine. | 14:05 |
| Kasm279 | such as? | 14:05 |
| Shirl | Curly_Q, then all the box will do is boot up, into karmic, firefox loads from start and goes full screen | 14:05 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: which 2? | 14:05 |
| indus | wine is just an experiment really | 14:05 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: run cam and use mobile | 14:05 |
| Curly_Q | Shirl, I have a storage bin with plenty of monitors. Where do you live? I am from Massachusetts. | 14:05 |

| shab1 | what software 3d cad for linux? | 14:06 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: i have a DATA SIM in my mobile which dials out using a Windows application.. which I now cannot instlal in ubuntu :P | 14:06 |
| indus | shab1, none or blender | 14:06 |
| indus | shab1, www.blenderproject.org | 14:06 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: beat the mobile company for not making linux drivers :p | 14:06 |
| indus | shab1, very good indeed but not for parametric / engineering work | 14:06 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: sadly I may need to go back to windows.. cause I need my VOIP and mobile phone access | 14:07 |
| indus | shab1, but similar to alias,3d studio | 14:07 |
| Curly_Q | UK. Wow! No monitors there Shirl? hehe :) | 14:07 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: choose what works for you , | 14:07 |
| shab1 | ok | 14:07 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: ye | 14:07 |
| neure | what is the correct way to add mounts? | 14:07 |
| indus | neure, what kind of mounts | 14:08 |
| neure | i have /dev/sdb with two partitions, usb sd card reader | 14:08 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: are there any free online multiplayer games on Ubuntu? | 14:08 |
| indus | neure, permanent mounting should be added to /etc/fstab including nfs mounts | 14:08 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: i dont game sorry | 14:08 |
| indus | neure, also with proper flags | 14:08 |
| Shirl | what kinda games you like SeekTruth ? | 14:08 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: wise girl ;) | 14:09 |
| neure | just nano /etc/fstab? | 14:09 |
| indus | SeekTruth, quake live, nexuiz , open arena , alien arena | 14:09 |
| indus | neure, yeah | 14:09 |
| SeekTruth | shift: battlefield 2142, chess. | 14:09 |
| geekphreak | girl?? | 14:09 |
| geekphreak | man you been working a lot with wine :p | 14:09 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: you not a girl? | 14:09 |
| OsamaK | SeekTruth, We're about community, we develop what we want to use. If you think we need free software games on GNU/Linux, then please go and contribute to projects that aim to do so. | 14:09 |
| geekphreak | girl named geekphreak | 14:09 |
| Curly_Q | Shirl, VNC seems your best option at this point. I believe that most VNC programs have somewhere an option to hide the mouse arrow or cursor. | 14:09 |
| SeekTruth | OsamaK: everyone been really nice to me and helpful. my first day using ubuntu, and then you come along and are rude. oh well | 14:09 |
| Shirl | Curly_Q, i tried that and the cursor don't hide, but thanx | 14:10 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: what? | 14:10 |
| SeekTruth | i read on a webpage that there is a free online and multiplayer game on ubuntu. shoot others :) | 14:10 |
| OsamaK | SeekTruth, I'm not. People say to you go and use big corporation dirty games, I say don't. | 14:10 |
| Curly_Q | I suppose Shirl that in that situation you would be in CONSOLE MODE. Check that out. | 14:10 |

| Shirl | SeekTruth, yessir, well plyaonlinux, but SL is natively linux | 14:12 |
| Curly_Q | Shirl I had this problem once with an old Windows box. I did not have a mouse. I had to use the TAB keys for all of the commands and the up and down right and left arrows and then Enter commands. | 14:12 |
| SeekTruth | Shirl: whats plyaonlinux? | 14:12 |
| SeekTruth | Kasm279: I dont see "Add/Remove applications" anywhere,.wher eis that? | 14:12 |
| maginot | mbutubuntu, well, if I remember ubuntu server isn't live... | 14:13 |
| indus | SeekTruth, ubuntu software center\ | 14:13 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, its like a wine version manager, say if you want more than one proggy to work with wine, but different proggys need different versions of wine, the playonlinux manages versions for yoiu | 14:13 |
| Kasm279 | SeekTruth: the ubuntu logo menu | 14:13 |
| SeekTruth | indus: ok | 14:13 |
| OsamaK | SeekTruth, The reason Ubuntu was built is to have control over your computer. We achieve many of our goals, but not games. Instead of using these games, let's build our own, after all, we built a complete operating system. | 14:13 |
| indus | OsamaK, who is 'we'\ | 14:13 |
| SeekTruth | Shirl: is playonlinux expensive to buy? | 14:13 |
| Kasm279 | SeekTruth: personally i love Tremulous | 14:13 |
| neure | so what flags etc. should i give for sdcard? | 14:13 |
| OsamaK | indus, the free software community. | 14:13 |
| SeekTruth | OsamaK: ok | 14:13 |
| Curly_Q | Otherwise Shirl, you may have to use Mental Telepathy <--------------------< hehe | 14:13 |
| Kasm279 | SeekTruth: give it a try :) | 14:14 |
| mbutubuntu | maginot, sorry, i didn't want to say LIVE, I mean Installable cd | 14:14 |
| neure | can i just plug/unplug sdcards in linux? | 14:14 |
| SeekTruth | ok. do I now need to install or activate a firewall? | 14:14 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, its in the ubuntu repo's but i recommend you download it | 14:14 |
| SeekTruth | Kasm279: ok I will. I can play online against others? | 14:14 |
| indus | OsamaK, we have games if you arent aware yet | 14:14 |
| Kazz|Away | trying to change resolution on ubuntu running in a VM ... added the vboxadditions and it allowed 1152x864 for a while then restarted the VM and now i cant get the 1152*864 back. stuck with 800*600/640*480 ... any suggestions ? | 14:14 |
| Hylian | does anyone know if the driver provided by ati for the x1300 can function in 9.10? it couldnt in 8.10 to 9.04... | 14:14 |
| maginot | mbutubuntu, I don't know if there are anything else, but maybe this can help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick ? | 14:14 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: firewall is built in | 14:14 |
| Kasm279 | SeekTruth: yeah | 14:14 |
| mbutubuntu | maginot, not not | 14:14 |
| Kasm279 | SeekTruth: read about it in the siftware center | 14:14 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: so I dont need to turn on firewall or anything? its on by default? | 14:15 |
| mbutubuntu | maginot, it's the same | 14:15 |
| indus | OsamaK,he is talking about which games run on ubuntu even though his question sounds like 'does ubuntu have games' | 14:15 |
| Kasm279 | its muiplayer only actually | 14:15 |
| SeekTruth | Kasm279: cool | 14:15 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, there is a knack to getting windows proggys to work with wine, playonlinux has may wizards for some proggys, but to find out if you can run a windows proggy in wine then visit the winehq website | 14:15 |
| OsamaK | indus, Well, I'm not interested, so yeah, I'm probably not aware. My point was that advocating non-free games here doesn't help the project. | 14:15 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: it is on and you are safe, it aint vista :) | 14:15 |
| maginot | mbutubuntu, you want something like a pxe ubuntu image? | 14:15 |
| SeekTruth | do I need to worry about spyware, keyloggers, trojans, malware? | 14:15 |
| Pici | No. | 14:15 |
| mbutubuntu | maginot, probably | 14:15 |
| SeekTruth | i hate checking for spyware, keyloggers, trojans, malware on vista every day.. you mean those days are gone? :)))))) | 14:16 |
| Curly_Q | Kazz|Away isn't that command ctrl alt + or something like that? | 14:16 |
| indus | OsamaK, there is nothing wrong with non free stuff , ubuntu is a platform to run either | 14:16 |
| Pici | SeekTruth: Linux doesn't have that problem. | 14:16 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, crossover is a paid wine version manager, prolly best for you if your noobish | 14:16 |
| Shirl | but that costs | 14:16 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: you are safe | 14:16 |
| SeekTruth | Pici: do I need to defrag? I think I have ext4 file system? | 14:16 |
| Hylian | anyone know if the ati fglrx driver for the x1300 can function in 9.10? | 14:16 |
| maginot | mbutubuntu, well, I guess you could install ubuntu at someplace and make a img to boot from network, I'm using LTSP for pxe boot on my boxes | 14:16 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: lol no you dont | 14:16 |
| indus | Hylian, it wont | 14:16 |
| Pici | Hylian: It cannot, you must used the open source driver. | 14:16 |
| neothecat | good morning. i have "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java" has my java selection. but whenever i run netbeans, i uses openjdk. does anyone know what i did wrong? | 14:16 |
| SeekTruth | Shirl: so playonlinux is like wine but better? | 14:16 |
| Kazz|Away | Curly_Q ... did you have the right Ka ??? | 14:16 |
| norbi905 | mbutubuntu, LTSP works fine out of the box for PXE boot, give it a try | 14:17 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: so I never have to defrag ever? | 14:17 |
| OsamaK | indus, It is all wrong and unethical, Ubuntu operating system is a platform, Ubuntu project is (or 'supposed to be') a free software-only project. | 14:17 |
| Shirl | SeekTruth, it is a wine version manager so you kinda right | 14:17 |
| hellz_bellz | what is the command to upgrade to the new ubuntu beta? | 14:17 |
| mbutubuntu | ok | 14:17 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, just keep the system update to avoid any exploit =) | 14:17 |
| Hylian | indus thanx. i was hoping it would. i am still being forced to use pclinuxos 2009. not my first choice, but it uses my ati driver. :( | 14:17 |
| Pici | hellz_bellz: See the topic in #ubuntu+1 | 14:17 |
| SeekTruth | maginot: :) | 14:17 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: nope , not on linux | 14:17 |
| norbi905 | mbutubuntu, I believe Ubuntu server has it build in as well, not sure though | 14:17 |
| Curly_Q | Kazz|Away I used that command years ago with Red Hat. | 14:17 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: wow awesome.. used to hate having to defrag | 14:17 |
| Kazz|Away | wrong kazz :> | 14:18 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: what about when I delete files? are they securely deleted, or I need a secure file wipe program? | 14:18 |
| indus | Hylian, because older chips are no longer supported , but unless you game, the open source driver works great | 14:18 |
| Shirl | Curly_Q, i remember when i were younger, a mouse was a luxury | 14:18 |

| geekphreak | seek you can use wipe progra from linux, it can be downlaoded | 14:18 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, search for wipe | 14:18 |
| Kasm279 | who uses mice? | 14:18 |
| hellz_bellz | would anyone here know of any free milservers I can host my domainname on to forward mail to my personal mail server becuase i use mercury mail server and i cant run two OS's on this comp at once lol | 14:18 |
| Curly_Q | Lol Shirl. :) | 14:18 |
| SeekTruth | so the ubuntu delete dont wipe the files properly and someone can undelete the files? | 14:19 |
| Hylian | indus, i tried the open source driver, made the screen funky and continuously crashed the pc. | 14:19 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, "apt-get install wipe" its what you need | 14:19 |
| indus | Hylian, hmm shouldnt , it works nice with x 1300 | 14:19 |
| Curly_Q | Kazz|Away take a look at this site also Shirl. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_keyboard_shortcuts | 14:19 |
| indus | Hylian, well, difficult to trouble shoot these things | 14:19 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: by default yes, but you can use wipe tools, it a ll free | 14:19 |
| neure | http://pastie.org/911412 | 14:19 |
| SeekTruth | maginot: so a file can be undeleted if I dont use wipe? | 14:19 |
| neure | do the last two entries look ok? | 14:19 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: so how would I undelete a file then? | 14:20 |
| geekphreak | like you do on windows :p | 14:20 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, that depends on the wipe level you make, most times it will be unrecoverable | 14:20 |
| Pici | !undelete | SeekTruth | 14:20 |
| ubottu | SeekTruth: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 14:20 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: so if I delete a file and empty the bin, I can still undelete the file? | 14:20 |
| Hylian | indus, maybe ill try it again then, maybe something happened since 9.04. but since windows with my driver and pclinuxos09 with the linux ati driver both work without hiccups, and then ubuntu with the open source driver is buggior than a swamp, i assumed it was the opensource driver | 14:20 |
| SeekTruth | Pici: I use ext4 i think, not ext3 | 14:21 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: you can use tools | 14:21 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, if you install wipe you can delete a file with "wipe -Q 7 <file>" | 14:21 |
| SeekTruth | k | 14:21 |
| geekphreak | pici ty for links :) | 14:21 |
| indus | Hylian, oh a lot has changed since 9.04 the drivers are much improved | 14:21 |

| norbi905 | SeekTruth, a file is never deleted from the drive unless you overwrite that part with random data a few times... regardless of OS | 14:21 |
| bazhang | ech0Asus, offtopic here | 14:22 |
| indus | Hylian, try 10.04 beta 2 :) | 14:22 |
| Hylian | indus, thats great news. I am a gamer, but i can live without games. I just cant live without pc halting bugs. | 14:22 |
| indus | Hylian, you can play games too except a few like quake 4 | 14:22 |
| maginot | norbi905, that is the function of wipe, Q option tell how many passes it must do over the file =) 7 is know to be secure. | 14:22 |
| SeekTruth | if someone boots my laptop with a CD and then reads my Ubuntu partition, can they access and read my files in my HOME folder? I chose to encrypt my home folder during installation, so its all encrypted when ubuntu isnt loaded, right? | 14:22 |
| indus | Hylian, also with tthe open source driver you get a nice graphical boot experience etc | 14:23 |
| theadmin | SeekTruth: Yep | 14:23 |
| erUSUL | SeekTruth: correct | 14:23 |
| Hylian | indus thats impressive, because in 9.04, the open source driver could barely run the pc. Happy happy joy joy, LOL | 14:23 |
| indus | Hylian, flicker free boot by april release of 10.04 | 14:23 |
| SeekTruth | cool | 14:23 |

| indus | whats google voice btw | 14:24 |

| SeekTruth | theadmin: ok u confused me :P | 14:24 |
| Kuifje111 | SeekTruth: yes, they can. | 14:25 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: your is encrypted due, so they wont relax | 14:25 |
| SeekTruth | Kuifje111: they can? so whats the use of encryption? | 14:25 |

| SeekTruth | ok excellent :-) | 14:25 |
| indus | kernel_geek, its there but empty these days , hardly used | 14:25 |

| theadmin | kernel_geek: You can explicitly create this file if you need :D | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | SeekTruth: no | 14:26 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: it is upto you | 14:26 |
| SeekTruth | erUSUL: ok | 14:26 |
| maginot | kernel_geek, X11 now auto configures your X server ,so only create a xorg.conf if you need some special | 14:26 |
| Curly_Q | Shirl, I understand what you are talking about, I was just sharing a cool link with you. | 14:26 |
| theadmin | xomp: Uh, that works perfectly on Ubuntu | 14:26 |
| kernel_geek | this annoys me, what reason would they have to take it away other than "they can" | 14:26 |
| geekphreak | SeekTruth: normally you are ok | 14:26 |
| SeekTruth | geekphreak: why would I need it if HOME is already encrypted? | 14:26 |
| zamba | i can't get oidentd binding to my ipv6 address in ubuntu karmic | 14:27 |

| Shirl | Curly_Q, oh fphew! lulz | 14:30 |
| maginot | theadmin, that depends, block what, from which direction | 14:30 |
| Curly_Q | Who was asking about monitor resolution? There is a program called Xvidtune that works nicely. It must be used with much caution though. | 14:30 |
| SeekTruth | anyone use rkhunter? saw it on a website | 14:30 |
| theadmin | maginot: Say, block all outgoing connections to example.net | 14:30 |
| Kazz|Away | I was but ... | 14:30 |
| Kazz|Away | now it allows me to stretch the VM window | 14:30 |
| maginot | theadmin, outgoing from the iptables server or from a network which the iptables redirects ? | 14:31 |
| Kazz|Away | and it shows in the settings what the resolution is | 14:31 |
| Kazz|Away | * shrug * | 14:31 |
| maginot | theadmin, iptables -I OUTPUT -d example.net -j DENY or iptables -I FORWARD -d example.net -j DENY | 14:31 |
| Curly_Q | Oh yes, Kazz|Away Xvidtune. I am not sure that it is supported though. | 14:31 |
| maginot | theadmin, but keep in mind that example.net will be converted to an IP address from the time you issue the rule | 14:31 |
| theadmin | maginot: uh... %) From the same comp on which iptablez is installed. So which one | 14:31 |
| maginot | theadmin, you must deny on OUTPUT chain | 14:32 |

| Curly_Q | Kazz|Away I must caution you that anytime you use any software or drivers to change your video resolution, you can damage your monitor. I had that happen years ago. | 14:33 |

| classical | theadmin, I have already seen this http://fluxbuntu.org/ but im kinda in doubt | 14:41 |

| theadmin | xomp: More or less | 14:41 |
| theadmin | classical: Don't use that, it's dead. | 14:42 |
| SeekTruth | xomp: welcome to the club :) | 14:42 |
| hydester | SeekTruth: funny, i never noticed any firewall on by default. that is, it wasn't blocking anything by default. i was just suggesting firestarter as a GUI. i thought theadmin was asking. i misread what he said. | 14:42 |
| theadmin | There is no firewall apart from iptables by default | 14:42 |
| maginot | xomp, what theadmin is telling you is the best approach.. I would prefer still creating a group and changing the directory group for the one created, and put the user that runs your application inside that group, this will make only users from that group to have access to the directory | 14:42 |
| hydester | theadmin: is it allowing all by default? | 14:42 |
| SeekTruth | hydester: i was told that firewall is already blocking everything, because no ports are being listened to | 14:42 |
| theadmin | hydester: Yes | 14:42 |
| maginot | theadmin, I think ubuntu come with ufw, but never used it | 14:43 |
| SeekTruth | theadmin: are u saying we need to install a firewall? | 14:43 |
| theadmin | SeekTruth: Not at all, unless you want to block access somewhere | 14:43 |
| classical | theadmin, so what to do ? :-( do you have any suggestion ? | 14:43 |
| PapaGoose | theadmin: hmm not quite then. is there something like idprio on BSD that could be used? i'm trying to make it so that all other processes have complete priority over a small set of CPU intensive tasks, and setting priority 19 doesn't seem to be quite enough | 14:43 |
| aloprot | I've purge some files like pppoeconf....my network manager is grey(not working) how do i repair that? | 14:43 |

| chao06 | SeekTruth: absolutely... audacious is bloated, especially for the function it serves... and xmms2 doesn't work the same way | 14:48 |
| SeekTruth | whats xmms2 like then? | 14:48 |
| SeekTruth | chao06: so what do you use? | 14:48 |
| sinistrad | !lucid | 14:48 |
| ubottu | 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 | 14:48 |
| SeekTruth | chao06: so audacious crashes on you a lot? | 14:49 |
| classical | I have 1.3 gb hdd but my pc is not weak just got a small hdd what ditro to use? any suggestions ? | 14:49 |
| chao06 | SeekTruth: I use Rhythmbox for managing my library, xmms for on the fly playlists, and totem for playing audio files out of nautilus | 14:49 |
| SeekTruth | Zider: you prefer audacious? | 14:49 |
| hydester | so, anybody know if ubuntu can take advantage of 64-bit intel processors? | 14:49 |
| Zider | SeekTruth: it's my choice in linux, yeah | 14:49 |
| theadmin | hydester: Yes obviously, use the 64-bit release | 14:49 |
| hydester | theadmin: isn't the 64-bit for AMD? | 14:50 |
| theadmin | hydester: Well, it's just called "amd64", works with Intel processors too | 14:50 |
| chao06 | SeekTruth: well, alot may be somewhat of an overstatement, but my purposes require absolute stability, and audacious has never given me that | 14:50 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, if you like simplicity use VLC, it plays everything beside music | 14:50 |
| erUSUL | classical: http://www.slitaz.org | 14:50 |
| BinaryBob | you know how there are startup scripts in /etc/init.d for services? What is that called? I want to google for the right term so I can read about how to write my own scripts and add my own services correctly | 14:50 |
| Zider | I've never had stability issues with audacious | 14:50 |
| hydester | theadmin: ah, quite confusing. is it easy to upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit? | 14:50 |
| SeekTruth | maginot: besides music? | 14:50 |
| theadmin | maginot: Huh wha? Uh, dude, it plays music fine | 14:50 |
| BinaryBob | is that called init? | 14:50 |
| theadmin | hydester: You have to reinstall | 14:51 |
| maginot | theadmin, sorry, wrong word =X | 14:51 |
| maginot | Seeker`, ^ | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | BinaryBob: System V init system | 14:51 |
| maginot | ops | 14:51 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, ^ | 14:51 |
| theadmin | BinaryBob: It's called Upstart. | 14:51 |
| FloodBot4 | maginot: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:51 |
| classical | erUSUL, ya i know but its too minimalistic i think :-( | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | BinaryBob: read /etc/init.d/skeleton is an example/stub | 14:51 |
| SeekTruth | maginot: u over tired? :) | 14:51 |
| === overmind is now known as gomagarrofin | ||
| BinaryBob | thank you!! | 14:51 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, I mean, it plays everything and music =D | 14:51 |
| brush | hello | 14:51 |
| SeekTruth | lol | 14:51 |
| bo7amny | hello | 14:51 |
| chao06 | is there a way I can have nm-applet, gnome-volume-control-applet and gnome-power-manager independent of the notification area? | 14:52 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, sometimes I get confused with some english words =X | 14:52 |
| theadmin | maginot: XD well especially movies. When you get a weird .mkv and have no idea what codecs are used... VLC is a lifesaver | 14:52 |
| hydester | theadmin: is it worth it? that is, do you think i'll notice any benefit on a 1.5 ghz T2310 laptop with 2 GB ram? | 14:52 |
| brush | as i see, the early morning update removed compiz. only for me? | 14:52 |
| theadmin | hydester: None, because 64-bit is of any advantage with 4+ GB of RAM | 14:52 |
| bazhang | brush, for lucid? | 14:52 |
| hydester | hmm, i thought 64-bit is also faster due to efficiency reasons | 14:53 |
| Zider | theadmin: I thought it gave better performance in some (rare) cases too | 14:53 |
| brush | bazhang, of course... i am sorry | 14:53 |
| hydester | so only for utilizing more ram? | 14:53 |
| SeekTruth | Ok I need to start again... What plays MP4 files which are videos? | 14:53 |
| theadmin | hydester: Pretty much yeah | 14:53 |
| bazhang | brush, #ubuntu+1 for lucid please | 14:53 |
| xubunto1_ | a litle help with a caffeine | 14:53 |

| aar | Hi, I'm trying to FTP or SSH from my computer (ubuntu, 192.0.168.4) to another computer (ubuntu, 192.0.168.5) in a LAN. I get "no route to host" error. How can I trace the route so the two boxes find each other? | 14:53 |
| SeekTruth | audacious only plays music, dont show the videos | 14:53 |
| brush | oki | 14:53 |
| erUSUL | SeekTruth: totem default player does it too | 14:53 |
| xubunto1_ | with plugin i must to install to use the dvb-s with a kaffeine? | 14:54 |
| SeekTruth | erUSUL: ok | 14:54 |
| maginot | SeekTruth, VLC plays everything I have seen so far | 14:54 |
| SeekTruth | ill go play around and see which one I like the best | 14:54 |
| dewman | aar, can you ping the other host? | 14:54 |
| hydester | SeekTruth: you can't go wrong with vlc for video media | 14:54 |
| SeekTruth | bbl :) | 14:54 |
| theadmin | maginot: Does not play midi's (on Windows, plays fine on Linux XD) | 14:54 |
| SeekTruth | hydester: ok | 14:54 |
| erUSUL | SeekTruth: just install ubuntu-restricted-extras and the ffmpeg gstreamer plugon | 14:54 |
| SeekTruth | erUSUL: i did | 14:54 |
| Kuifje111 | aar: "trace 192.0.168.5"? | 14:54 |
| aar | dewman, no -- "host unreachable". | 14:54 |
| Kuifje111 | or tracert* | 14:54 |
| erUSUL | aar: what is the output of « ip route » | 14:55 |

| SeekTruth | i want to remove audacious and use vlc.. how do I totally remove and uninstall audacious? | 14:55 |
| chao06 | SeekTruth: 'sudo apt-get purge audacious' | 14:56 |
| Kuifje111 | apt-get remove audacious? | 14:56 |
| SeekTruth | chao06: cheers | 14:56 |
| theadmin | SeekTruth: Recommend you to read "man apt-get" someday. Do: sudo apt-get purge... well, what chao06 said | 14:56 |
| aar | erUSUL, 192.168.0.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.4 ---- default via 192.168.0.1 dev eth1 ---- default via 192.168.0.1 dev eth1 | 14:56 |
| SeekTruth | whats diff between remove and purge? | 14:56 |
| theadmin | SeekTruth: "remove" leaves configuration files | 14:56 |
| SeekTruth | purge then is best | 14:56 |
| SeekTruth | brb | 14:56 |
| aar | Kuifje111, this is the output of tracert: 1 192.168.0.4 (192.168.0.4) 3000.059 ms !H 3000.065 ms !H 3000.067 ms !H (just 1 hop) | 14:57 |
| SeekTruth | on vista I was always too scared to download and install programs to play around with.. but in ubuntu its great and easy and safe and easy to purge :) | 14:57 |
| erUSUL | aar: what is the exact command you used? you typed the wrong ip's on the first question... 192.0.168.4 192.0.168.5 | 14:57 |
| xomp | ok, don't think I have the brain power to figure out permissions and such with chmod/chown lol. Would be way easier if I had a GUI but I'm using a VPS "Linode" and from what I gather, it's all console baby.. | 14:57 |
| ehmphy | ce...cht me?? | 14:57 |
| SeekTruth | and NO REGISTRY :) | 14:57 |
| erUSUL | aar: that two ip should be 192.168.0.[4,5] | 14:58 |
| theadmin | SeekTruth: Yep :D | 14:58 |
| rocket16_ | Friends, I am trapped in a problem, I have only Uuntu 9.10 installed, using the entire Hard Disk, and before, it did not show the Grub menu. But now, it shows it, and unless I select the Ubuntu kernel, nothing happens. The default entry does not boot up. Also, the Login screen takes more time to load. (I recently installed Ubuntu-studio). | 14:58 |
| aar | erUSUL, 192.0.168.4 is my internal IP. 192.0.168.5 is the IP of the box I want to FTP to. | 14:58 |
| theadmin | SeekTruth: Registry is only good for viruses lol | 14:58 |
| SeekTruth | theadmin: :-) | 14:58 |
| teguh | ubuntu 64 bit, google chrome can not play flash | 14:58 |
| aar | erUSUL, my command was: sudo tracert 192.168.0.5 | 14:58 |
| erUSUL | aar: no; see the ip route output the lan is 192.168.0.x | 14:58 |

| theadmin | maginot: Well, you know, the Nano style lol like it reffers to Ctrl as ^ and to Alt as M- | 15:02 |
| rdg | I'm confused as to why tomcat is split between /usr/share and /var/lib, especially when it doesn't seem to work all that well | 15:02 |
| maginot | theadmin, another reason to not use nano lol | 15:03 |
| theadmin | maginot: nano is fine with me | 15:03 |

| rocket16 | theadmin: You earlier said "You are late", I did not understand, can you please explain? | 15:13 |
| theadmin | rocket16: Well, you said something about some spammer or something but he left already | 15:13 |
| frxstrem | airtonix: I don't think so (is that the built-in one for Ubuntu?) | 15:13 |
| naadde | theadmin: sorry I queried you | 15:13 |
| rocket16 | theadmin: I see, :D | 15:13 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, not really, I mean you also have encrypted partitions which may complicate the issue a bit more.. but I'd check .xinitrc which is under your $user directory and try to trace back what you did last | 15:13 |
| naadde | check it ^^ | 15:13 |
| airtonix | frxstrem, yes its the default bit-torrent client. you also have deluge | 15:13 |
| haavaros | Hm, I'm formatting a new disk in fdisk. To specify partition size, do I calculate the ending cylinder by dividing partition size with cylinder size, or is there a simpler way? | 15:13 |
| frxstrem | airtonix: well, are they as good as µTorrent, with all it's features | 15:14 |

| psycho_oreos | haavaros, you can use +Xm +Xg (where X is the number, and m for megabytes, g is for gigabytes) | 15:14 |

| darksider | psycho_oreos, would it be worth a try hooking it up by ethernet and trying to install gnome over again ? | 15:16 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, yeah it sounds like you have removed a hell lot of deps which are related to gnome bits and pieces.. you might be able to regain some via aptitude install ubuntu-desktop heh | 15:16 |
| airtonix | frxstrem, i've used utorrent, transmission & deluge a fair bit and i can't really see anything that makes them different from each other... | 15:17 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, i will give it a try then reboot, and lket you know how she goes =) | 15:17 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, that is more or less the only choice I believe more info maybe available in /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 15:17 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos i will check that log just now 1st | 15:17 |
| * maginot aha, almost finishing his xchat modification =D | 15:17 | |

| naadde | theadmin: now it says E: Malformed line 7 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist) | 15:19 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, what exactly should i be looking for? this is unusual teritory for me | 15:19 |
| darksider | territory* | 15:19 |
| theadmin | naadde: wha... uh... okay, I'm confused. I'll give you my sources.list, k? | 15:19 |
| naadde | sure | 15:20 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, pastebin (not paste) your log, I'll check | 15:20 |
| darksider | uhm... | 15:20 |
| darksider | ok i will need to try hooking upto ethernet first | 15:20 |
| darksider | gimme two mins plz | 15:20 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, or you can do sneakernet setup | 15:20 |
| darksider | and thanks psycho_oreos <3 | 15:20 |
| darksider | sneakernet ? | 15:20 |
| maginot | naadde, probably you pasted something wrong... take a look at line 7 | 15:21 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, floppy disk in hand, copy data from one computer and move it across by foot :) | 15:21 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, lol..no floppy drive just optical | 15:21 |
| psycho_oreos | similar logic applies with zips, blank cd/dvd, usb flash drives, etc | 15:22 |
| darksider | hmm how do i burn to a disk from a shell o.O ? | 15:22 |
| theadmin | darksider: There is a proggy called 'cdrecord' | 15:22 |
| psycho_oreos | I don't think that will work when the computer doesn't have network/internet access lol | 15:23 |
| maginot | theadmin, don't you like transmission? works great for me | 15:23 |
| rocket16 | Nautilus takes about 97 MB RAM. Can it be reduced? (I don't want to switch to OpenBox from Metacity though) | 15:23 |
| darksider | there seems to be proggys missing | 15:23 |
| darksider | lots of them | 15:23 |
| maginot | rocket16, you could install other browser ... | 15:23 |
| darksider | brasero amarok gedit geany to name a few | 15:23 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, which was what happened when you issued aptitude remove or similar :) | 15:24 |
| Insomniaque | Hey | 15:24 |
| rocket16 | maginot: Yes, but Nautilus is flexible, Thunar does not suite me, :) | 15:24 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, yeah...you think i should try hooking upto ethy first and then trying to get the x gui back ? | 15:24 |
| maginot | rocket16, take a look at xfe, "apt-get install xfe" | 15:24 |
| Insomniaque | So I just broke my current linux: Backtrack by trying to get Nautilus on KDE (which worked, until I wanted to go back to Konqueror.) So I'm now trying to switch to Ubuntu, with command line access and an external harddrive. | 15:25 |
| rocket16 | maginot: Yes, but Xfce is not so nice, is it? | 15:25 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, i might just have a backup list of all the packages i had installed at the point in time yesterday,... | 15:25 |
| bazhang | Insomniaque, bt4? | 15:25 |
| Insomniaque | I'm currently downloading the ubuntu iso to ~ and I just googled how to burn the ISO to an external hdd | 15:25 |
| Insomniaque | Yes, bazhang | 15:25 |
| maginot | rocket16, you don't need xfce, just xfe... its a file manager | 15:25 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, yes but if you want extra sense of security, I'd recommend you to backup any necessary data before proceeding | 15:25 |
| Insomniaque | I got sick of the KDE mixed with Gnome and some bugs within it (not to mention outdated repos.) | 15:25 |
| FallenSparrow | hey guyws i am hainvg some serious issues with dual booting with ssd. | 15:25 |
| rocket16 | maginot: Oh, I see | 15:25 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, all my stuff is already backed up >_< | 15:25 |
| FallenSparrow | anyone able to help | 15:25 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: SSD has nothing to do with it | 15:26 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, i will brb..gonna give it a show of hooking upto ethy | 15:26 |
| nicola | ciao | 15:26 |
| Insomniaque | So, I found this: http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive And I'm wondering what ramdisk_size is, seeing as it says it may need to be adjusted. | 15:26 |
| bazhang | Insomniaque, you could also burn to usb flash key | 15:26 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: they are treated the same as normal disks | 15:26 |
| FallenSparrow | i already have a dual boot on a patter disk | 15:26 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, ok good, just in case :) | 15:26 |
| hydester | on jaunty, where do i put a script to be called when the laptop goes between AC power and battery? | 15:26 |
| maginot | !it | nicola | 15:26 |
| ubottu | nicola: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) | 15:26 |
| FallenSparrow | and i know i have issues with drive geometery | 15:26 |
| Insomniaque | bazhang: I have no USB flash drive large enough (not even sure I have one smaller for that matter,) however, my external hdd is a usb drive, so I figured it'd be the same pretty much | 15:26 |
| Insomniaque | ? | 15:26 |
| haavaros | On a 1TB backup disk, should I use ext3 or 4, or does it not matter? | 15:27 |
| ikonia | haavaros: doesn't matter | 15:27 |
| haavaros | k txh | 15:27 |
| FallenSparrow | this is my issue, i have windows 7 and ubuntu on wd 1tb. i have added ssd, 60gb, i want to have my dual boot onthe ssd instead. and have my windows data (onkly abotu 100gb and my home partition on ssd | 15:27 |
| tigerplug292 | hi | 15:27 |
| bazhang | haavaros, to be shared with windows or not | 15:27 |
| tigerplug292 | anyone know where I can find Ubuntu for Itanium based servers? - Can't find it on the site at all | 15:27 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: so what's teh issue with it | 15:27 |
| haavaros | bazhang: only linux devices | 15:27 |
| ikonia | tigerplug292: no port | 15:27 |
| Insomniaque | Also, I have one other question besides the ramdisk_size, and that is: If I go through the tutorial on the wiki that I just linked (I'm doing the second one, the one which you install the bootloader and then copy the files), I will NOT lose any directories already on the drive, correct? | 15:27 |
| Insomniaque | And lastly, how can I check what format my external is? | 15:27 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, there's two ways to go about on it, one is to use unetbootin and hope that it'll work or use something like grub4dos | 15:28 |
| tigerplug292 | ikonia: thanks :) | 15:28 |
| haavaros | bazhang: or maybe not ... I'm probably getting a winputer this summer, so I'll probably go for fat32 | 15:28 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, which tutorial? | 15:28 |
| Insomniaque | Hmm... on the wiki it says as long as the hard drive is FAT16, I should be able to just run syslinux /dev/sda1 and copy the files over along with the bootloader config file. | 15:29 |
| FallenSparrow | well i am a bit daunted by the whole issue with geometery but also when i install the ssd windows seven it effects the grub which i dont underdstand hwo that is possible basically when i install windows on ssd, i cant no longer access my ubuntu partition on the WD, grubb never loads, just the windows boot manager.asking me which win 7 to boot | 15:29 |
| Insomniaque | One sec, psycho_oreos | 15:29 |
| maginot | ikonia, doesn't x64 works on itanium servers ? | 15:29 |
| Insomniaque | http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive#The_Slow_Method | 15:29 |
| rdg | if I want to set global environment variables for my users, I should just edit /etc/profile right? | 15:30 |
| chao06 | is there any way I can have nm-applet, gnome-volume-control-applet and gnome-power-manager independent of the notification area? | 15:30 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, hmm never tried those, I only used unetbootin, failing that I'd setup grub4dos and make it boot iso off that | 15:30 |
| FallenSparrow | now right now i am trying to install linux on the ssd, that i have already instaled win 7 to, and 9.10 does nto see teh ssd | 15:30 |
| Insomniaque | A friend of mine on MSN just told me that if my external is more than 80GB it's guaranteed NTFS? | 15:30 |
| Insomniaque | Let me take a look at unetbootin | 15:30 |
| ikonia | maginot: no | 15:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | chao06, are you using Lucid? | 15:31 |
| Zider | Insomniaque: I doubt it's guaranteed ntfs but recommended | 15:31 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, if you're using windows to format, it'll be in NTFS which won't work well with these other tools | 15:31 |
| chao06 | ZykoticK9: no, karmic... | 15:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | chao06, ok - just checking. | 15:31 |
| Insomniaque | Well it came pre-formatted, so I'd assume NTFS. | 15:31 |
| Insomniaque | It's a WesternDigital. | 15:31 |
| FallenSparrow | also i am curious with the wawy linux works, if i have my home partition on the wd, does that mean my apps will not receive the benifits of an ssd | 15:32 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, plug it in and check | 15:32 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: nah, its most likely a FAT32 or something | 15:32 |
| maginot | ikonia, interesting ... but if you compile ia64 support on kernel, will 32/64 bits application still work? | 15:32 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: how big a drive? | 15:32 |
| Insomniaque | psycho_oreos: It's plugged in, how can I check via command line? | 15:32 |
| Insomniaque | Trek: 500gb | 15:32 |
| rdg | Insomniaque: the limit for FAT32is theoretically 8TB | 15:32 |
| chao06 | ZykoticK9: is this a new feature in lucid? | 15:32 |
| Insomniaque | Oh really? | 15:32 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, what is wd? western digital? as in a normal hard disk? | 15:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | chao06, no it's REALLY locked down | 15:32 |
| Trek | maginot: why'd you ctcp version me? | 15:32 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, which OS are you on? | 15:32 |
| FallenSparrow | yes i am sorry normal platter 1tb driive | 15:32 |
| rdg | Insomniaque: just do a mount /dev/whatever /mnt/external and see if mount figures it out | 15:32 |
| hafidz | hello.iwhen i open application>ubuntu software center. it does try to load but few seconds later it closed. i now cannot use software center. yesterday i can still use it. can someone answer me how to make it working again? I don't want to reinstall ubuntu as it is a last chance. anyone know how to fix this bug? | 15:32 |
| ikonia | mneptok: ix64 is totally different than x86/x86_^4 | 15:33 |
| maginot | Trek, it something of my script.. it tries to see what version those speaking have | 15:33 |
| Insomniaque | Right now, I'm using a limited WIndows XP that I don't own. Can't really use it besides web. | 15:33 |
| rdg | or run parted on the drive | 15:33 |
| chao06 | ZykoticK9: oh my... is that for the purposes of the beta, or is it that way for good? | 15:33 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, well no, most applications won't be residing in /home directory for that matter | 15:33 |
| FallenSparrow | basically i want my same setup but instead of haivng seperate partitions for data and os like i have now,k i want seperate drives. | 15:33 |
| maginot | Trek, I think I'm going to take this off | 15:33 |
| Trek | maginot: may I PM you? | 15:33 |
| hafidz | :( | 15:33 |
| Insomniaque | I'm trying to do everything from my linux PC which currently only has command line access. | 15:33 |
| maginot | Trek, ok | 15:33 |
| FallenSparrow | because apps reside in /usr/local correct? | 15:33 |
| rdg | Insomniaque: WindowsXP probably won't let you format it over 32GB, built in limitation of XP format tool | 15:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | chao06, sorry man, i can't (don't wish) to discuss any Lucid issues here. | 15:33 |
| hafidz | my software center is auto close.anyone having this prob before? | 15:33 |
| Insomniaque | Looking at unetbootin, they say it works best for windows, but they have a linux version. Does the linux version work via command line or does it need the GUI? | 15:33 |
| Insomniaque | If it needs the GUI, that's a problem for me... | 15:33 |
| h00k | !lucid | 15:33 |
| ubottu | 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 | 15:33 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, it needs GUI | 15:33 |
| Trek | Insomniaque, it uses GUI | 15:34 |
| rdg | Insomniaque: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314463 (Limitations of the FAT32 File System in Windows XP) | 15:34 |
| Trek | :P | 15:34 |
| Insomniaque | I had it back before my Windows 7 laptop's LED exploded and shorted stuff out. rdg | 15:34 |
| Zider | ouch | 15:34 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, no they reside in various places.. /bin /usr/bin, /sbin, /usr/sbin, etc | 15:34 |
| FallenSparrow | but not in /home correct, that is only config files and what not. | 15:34 |
| MauL^ | where is the networking gui in ubuntu ? | 15:34 |
| MauL^ | where I can set my dns and so on | 15:35 |
| Insomniaque | What was the second option instead of unetbootin? | 15:35 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, config files are normally in /etc.. you really need to learn linux filesystem, google and read about it | 15:35 |
| arvind_khadri | MauL^, you can set it in the panel, there would be two computers next to time | 15:35 |
| rdg | Insomniaque: if you fire up fdisk to partition it it'll read the filesystem code of the partition and tell you what it is | 15:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | MauL^, nm-applet | 15:35 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, grub4dos (which will never work on ntfs partition I bet) | 15:35 |
| brummbaer | Maul, usually in the panel, or alternatively in /etc/network/interfaces | 15:35 |
| Insomniaque | Hmm... | 15:35 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, correction it might, with some technicalities | 15:35 |
| Insomniaque | Well, if worst came to worst, I could add a partition to my external and boot off that, correct? | 15:35 |
| FallenSparrow | well when i go into /home adn view hidden i have a . folderr for each app. .pidgen .firefox i assumed that is where teh configs and settigns wheere | 15:35 |
| rocket16 | Ah! I installed OpenBox! How fast it is! | 15:36 |
| Insomniaque | With some slight modification to the .cfg file | 15:36 |
| hafidz | anyone? i need advise..regarding my prob on software center | 15:36 |
| Trek | if you use the terminal to configure the partitions, Insomniaque, you can put FAT32 on there, but you get the filesize limit of about 4GB | 15:36 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, I don't think its that simple if I read you correctly | 15:36 |
| arvind_khadri | hafidz, ask | 15:36 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, no its not simply the .cfg file.. it comes down to messing with lace.com file | 15:36 |
| rdg | Insomniaque: what are you trying to do with this HD? | 15:36 |
| hafidz | when i open application>ubuntu software center. it does try to load but few seconds later it closed. i now cannot use software center. yesterday i can still use it. can someone answer me how to make it working again? I don't want to reinstall ubuntu as it is a last chance. anyone know how to fix this bug? | 15:36 |
| Insomniaque | Well, I don't plan on actually installing Ubuntu on the external. | 15:37 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: booting off your external is a BIOS setting :P | 15:37 |
| frenzy1 | i am suffering from a bug where gvim writes permissions to ownere root and 700 for any edits over gvfs. this doesn't happen over sshfs. how can i replace gvfs with sshfs so that nautilus uses it and nothing breaks | 15:37 |
| MauL^ | ubuntu replies very slowly to the other computers on my network.. they wait for more than 10 seconds for each web request.. and I see on the server log that the request is not coming for seconds.. why could it be ? | 15:37 |
| Insomniaque | Rather, I want the iso to install it. | 15:37 |
| Trek | MauL^ bad config? | 15:37 |
| Insomniaque | Trek: Indeed, but I'm talking about the bootloader on the HD. ;) | 15:37 |
| FallenSparrow | i basically jsut got linux to see the ssd, buyy pulling out the WD drive, but now it says thhere is no OS. do i just need to boot into live CD adn create my linux partition BEFORE i try to install linux. | 15:37 |
| MauL^ | maybe that other computers can reach very difficulty to my desktop.. | 15:37 |
| Insomniaque | My BIOS allows me to boot from HD via boot menu. | 15:37 |
| MauL^ | Trek, where should I look for ? | 15:37 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: nah, the boot loader is default installed to the primary partition the system usually boots to | 15:37 |
| hafidz | hmm | 15:37 |
| Trek | NauL^ don't know, i'd have to look at packet flow first... | 15:37 |
| Trek | MauL^ don't know, i'd have to look at packet flow first... | 15:38 |
| Insomniaque | Trek: I'm looking at the syslinux.cfg file from http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive#The_Slow_Method | 15:38 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, no you shouldn't but you only had single boot on that computer? and what about 1TB? no OS? | 15:38 |
| Insomniaque | And it says to boot to /dev/sda1, and I'm not sure that would be the name of the partition if I re-partitioned my drive. | 15:38 |
| MauL^ | Trek, but it seems like the request is coming very late.. there is no error on the server | 15:38 |
| MauL^ | somehow, ubuntu is not appearant on the network | 15:38 |
| maginot | MauL^, does you use any firewall on you ubuntu box (ufw, iptables) ? | 15:39 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, it would work a lot better if you were to be running linux via livecd, forget about windows, its getting far too complex | 15:39 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: i agree, you could botch your system, so use a livecd | 15:39 |
| haavaros | When I'm typing 'sudo mkfs -t fat32 /dev/sdb1' I get 'mksfs.fat32: No such file or directory'. What does that mean? | 15:39 |
| FallenSparrow | no i currecntly have dual boot win7 and 9.10 on hard disk. i want to go to ssd and use hard disk as storage for both OSS. i dont realy have room to back up my home partition so i am trying to do thsi without deleting my currecnt linnux partitionas well but i have to i understand | 15:39 |
| hafidz | hmmm | 15:39 |
| MauL^ | magical, yes | 15:39 |
| darksider` | psycho_oreos, i will tll you this- my friend is NOT getting near my server when its got a HD fited!!! | 15:40 |
| psycho_oreos | haavaros, mksfs.fat32 is not a valid binary/application name | 15:40 |
| Insomniaque | psycho_oreos, Trek: I have no Windows system that I can burn from, and the CD drive along with various other parts of my linux desktop is shot. | 15:40 |
| hafidz | sofware center is autoclose..i cant open sypnatic too | 15:40 |
| hafidz | :( | 15:40 |
| darksider` | psycho_oreos, apt-get install ubuntu-desktop reinstalled LOADS of stuff and now it workies >_< | 15:40 |
| FallenSparrow | and btw 20gb is plenty for 9.10 install correct.with home on separate drive | 15:40 |
| Insomniaque | See, I'm 14 years old, I'm on my mom's laptop, and I have no money to fix the desktop. | 15:40 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: then order a free CD, and wait for 6 weeks | 15:40 |
| maginot | haavaros, mkfs.msdos try with that | 15:40 |
| Insomniaque | And my Windows 7 laptop asploded. =P | 15:40 |
| theadmin | maginot: wha wtf is that thing? msdos is not a filesystem | 15:40 |
| Insomniaque | Trek: >_> | 15:40 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider`, well lol he didn't exactly screw up your setup, he just tried to install a program, you got antsy over it, removed it and there goes your gnome :) | 15:41 |
| maginot | theadmin, yeah, right, mkfs.vfat =X | 15:41 |
| maginot | haavaros, ^ | 15:41 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: sounds like you need to have your mom pay to fix your systems | 15:41 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, generally yes | 15:41 |
| darksider` | psycho_oreos, i felt better blaming him =( | 15:41 |
| maginot | theadmin, but I do have mkfs.msdos here... O.o | 15:41 |
| darksider` | psycho_oreos, lets just pretend he did it | 15:41 |
| Insomniaque | Trek: Haha, there's no way she'd pay for anything for me. Took me 2 years to save up for my laptop. | 15:41 |
| darksider` | psycho_oreos, =D | 15:41 |
| Insomniaque | The bigger question is can the desktop be reasonably fixed. | 15:41 |
| theadmin | maginot: Maybe that's what it calls fat16? %) | 15:41 |
| haavaros | uh. so like this: 'mkfs.vfat =X <device>'? | 15:41 |
| Insomniaque | I couldn't find the problem with it after a year of trying to figure it out. | 15:41 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: a new CD burner costs $30 on newegg (USA) | 15:41 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider`, evil man, he could have done something more nasty but oh well | 15:41 |
| alabd | Good day all , Persian has 4 chars more than arabic language , What should be used as key symbol for those 4 chars ? ubuntu that uses gnome has not problem with those 4 chars but in SHR that uses e17 there is problem and don't now what should be used ? | 15:42 |
| darksider` | psycho_oreos, thanks for all your help man, im gonna come back inna minute, just after i get my new lappy connected | 15:42 |
| Insomniaque | Trek: I don't think the CD burner is broken. | 15:42 |
| haavaros | maginot: uh. so like this: 'mkfs.vfat =X <device>'? | 15:42 |
| Insomniaque | SOmething else is, causing the CD burner to not work. | 15:42 |
| maginot | theadmin, maybe, that is why I corrected to mkfs.vfat =D | 15:42 |
| Insomniaque | =P | 15:42 |
| maginot | haavaros, yes... mkfs.vfat device | 15:42 |
| Insomniaque | Have my USB drives don't work, my PC thinks my proc is 1GHz when it's 2 | 15:42 |
| Insomniaque | Half* | 15:42 |
| Trek | *shrugs* Insomniaque: you're trying to work with high-complexity stuff that I wouldn't attempt, and probably with faulty hardware | 15:42 |
| MauL^ | where should I look if other computers on the same network have difficulties on making request to my ubuntu box | 15:42 |
| totimkopf | hmm, for some strange reason i´m unable to use dead keys, i´m trying to use accented spanish characters, i´m using the USA one and i´ve used the spanish one | 15:43 |
| Trek | Insomniaque: best recommendation: have your mom take the systems to a tech, there's not much more we can do to help you here | 15:43 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, thanxmuch dude | 15:43 |
| Dekko | Hello, is it possible to upgrade GNOME to 2.30 on Jaunty? | 15:43 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, no worries | 15:43 |
| Insomniaque | Trek: I could take it to the tech myself, but the computer isn't worth it. | 15:43 |
| maginot | MauL^, well, try first disabling your firewall to see if gets better | 15:43 |
| Insomniaque | I'll see if I can just get a CD and burn it from my mom's laptop. | 15:43 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, i owe you bigtime. if i knew more about how ubuntu works then i could probably figure silly stuff like that out..but without you id still be using my old lappy again -.- | 15:43 |
| Insomniaque | Though she thinks I put keyloggers and spyware on her computer when I'm fixing it. =P | 15:43 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, then its not worth installing ubuntu on it, when its playing up half the time | 15:43 |
| Insomniaque | Not to mention, I got a ton of segfaults the other day, ran memtest 86+ and got over 14million erros, ran it a second time and got no errors. | 15:44 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, if you ever need some free hosting or an email addy then gimme a shout =)# | 15:44 |
| geekphreak | Insomniaque: lol why would you do that :) | 15:44 |
| chao06 | Insomniaque: maybe try a different distro... i've had computers that have completely different problems with different distros... | 15:44 |
| obscurant1st | i installed network-manager and network-manager-gnome, but there is no icon for it in my notification area? | 15:44 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, heh we all had to start from somewhere :) | 15:44 |
| Trek | obscurant1st: is it not loading on boot? | 15:44 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, just waiting on my 1.5TB HD coming in for my server =) | 15:44 |
| Insomniaque | chao06: You should have seen it on Windows. -_-' | 15:44 |
| Insomniaque | Linux Mint worked, Backtrack sucks, I want Ubuntu. =P | 15:44 |
| chao06 | Insomniaque: yeah, like windows ever works lol | 15:44 |
| MauL^ | magical, I did but no change | 15:44 |
| Zider | darksider: aww, I want one too! | 15:44 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, why cant nmore people be like you and understand when theres a problem beyond my expertise ? theres alot of ppl that just get angry and troll till you get out of the room >_< | 15:45 |
| Insomniaque | chao06: Haha, my comptuer would freeze when I tried to do anything with a .msc, (and frozen at any other point too.) | 15:45 |
| geekphreak | window is not that bad :) | 15:45 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, rsyncing various (sorted now) stuff from ~6TB boxen (xubuntu) to my ~3TB boxen (arch linux) | 15:45 |
| obscurant1st | Trek, its getting connected automatically, but there is no icon. | 15:45 |
| FallenSparrow | also with 4gb ram and ssd there is no need for swap correct, nto for basic computing at least | 15:45 |
| Dekko | c'mon people, can I upgrade GNOME on Jaunty? | 15:45 |
| darksider | Ziber, wanna see it? www.swedger.com/server.php | 15:45 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, ah. very nice (borat) | 15:45 |
| chao06 | Insomniaque: have you tried any non-Debian based distros? | 15:45 |
| maginot | MauL^, you're addressing your answers to other people... | 15:45 |
| wazzaaaaa | problem , i have a dual boot laptop with ubuntu and xp , now i wish to remove my xp and use that partioned space as another linux(ubuntu) partion ext3 , and use vitualbox for win xp | 15:45 |
| Dr_Willis | FallenSparrow: its proberly best to make at least a 512mb swap partition. | 15:45 |
| Trek | obscurant1st: Ubuntu, Kubuntu, or Xubuntu? | 15:45 |
| FallenSparrow | you can upgrade to the newest desktop enviorment | 15:45 |
| obscurant1st | Trek, Ubuntu | 15:45 |
| Insomniaque | chao06: Thought about trying Gentoo, Mandriva or Arch. | 15:46 |
| Insomniaque | But I'm not sure. | 15:46 |
| Trek | obscurant1st: i'm not sure why it shouldn't load an icon... *shrugs* | 15:46 |
| Trek | you might have to ask others | 15:46 |
| Insomniaque | Mandriva annoyed me since it became... not open-source or something? | 15:46 |
| geekphreak | wazzaaaaa: good luck | 15:46 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, well linux is a very vast platform to work with, theres far too many areas and categories.. so help isn't always available, and then there's helpers that can get annoyed over time :) | 15:46 |
| Zider | darksider: must be hard to fit drives in that small thing | 15:46 |
| wazzaaaaa | geekphreak , thanks , looking for help tho ;) | 15:46 |
| Insomniaque | I remember there was something weird about it. Arch sounds interesting and my friend swears by it (and it's ability to install from git repos.) | 15:46 |
| Dekko | Insomniaque: I have installed Arch on a secondary computer and considering migrating to it on my primary setup too... | 15:46 |
| obscurant1st | actually i had a problem with wicd, so i installed this, now its also not coming | 15:46 |
| theadmin | what... the... heck. Ubuntu won't let me delete a file in my home directory o_O | 15:46 |
| geekphreak | wazzaaaaa: anytime :) | 15:46 |
| Insomniaque | Gentoo sounds neat too, but I don't know anything about it. | 15:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Insomniaque: i find that once you learn linux basics and fundamentals.. the distrtos dont really matter that much.. perferance becomes about what little things the distro offers. | 15:47 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, its not recommended for beginners | 15:47 |
| Curly_Q | Just curious does anyone here know if there is a software or program that acts like Facebook or anything in that vein with Ubuntu? | 15:47 |
| obscurant1st | Trek, is there a way to bring up the interface? | 15:47 |
| chao06 | Insomniaque: arch is very nice if you can get it to work right... haven't tried gentoo... and i've been thoroughly unhappy with any rpm distro i've tried | 15:47 |
| geekphreak | obscurant1st: what happen when you tpe nm-applet ? | 15:47 |
| darksider | Zider, aparently (the guy tels me AFTER i pay for it) its not made for internal opticals | 15:47 |
| Insomniaque | psycho_oreos: Gentoo? I know. | 15:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Insomniaque: it all depends on your needs as to what ones to try. | 15:47 |
| obscurant1st | geekphreak, let me try' | 15:47 |
| Dekko | Insomniaque: arch needs some dedication to install and run but gentoo I think is worse as you have to compile everything from scratch there. | 15:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | FallenSparrow, is your worried about your SSD drive, you can probably get away with only 4GB RAM without swap (I've used 2GB with no swap on my old EEE), if you have an actual HD (vs SSD), could you just put swap on it? Best of luck, wish i had SSD on my system. | 15:47 |
| Insomniaque | Dr_Willis: I agree completely, backtrack was just screwy imo. | 15:47 |
| from_brazil | hi friends, I'm trying to install skype in ubuntu 8.04 32bits but it seems doesn't exists a installation package for this ubuntu version.. can anyone help? | 15:47 |
| darksider | Zider, he said to get an external but im gonna buy a skinny drive and fit it myself >_< maybe | 15:47 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, no both arch and gentoo, I've got arch on one box and tried gentoo every so often | 15:47 |
| Insomniaque | Repos out-dated (so i switched them to ubuntus, still messed up.) | 15:47 |
| alabd | in SHR with e17 we have /usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/illume/keyboards/Persian.kbd file where is this file for gnome ? | 15:47 |
| grodzilla | Dekko: gentoo roX :D | 15:47 |
| Zider | darksider: rack systems rarely have opticals | 15:47 |
| obscurant1st | geekphreak, it shows a warning and it loaded | 15:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Insomniaque: Backtrack has a very specific focus. and 'beginners' often use it when they really shouldent be. | 15:47 |
| darksider | psycho_oreos, i know..anyways man thx much. appreciated <3 | 15:47 |
| geekphreak | from_brazil: it is on skype site, i saw it :) | 15:47 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, backtrack is actually for pentesters mainly | 15:48 |
| geekphreak | obscurant1st: whats the message? | 15:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Insomniaque: go to the distrowatch.com web site and explore the ones out. | 15:48 |
| obscurant1st | ** (nm-applet:2861): WARNING **: Invalid connection /system/networking/connections/1: 'NMSettingWireless' / 'ssid' invalid: 2 | 15:48 |
| Insomniaque | psycho_oreos: Yeah, I've had linux for a couple years, and I prefer it over Windows except for the fact that it lacks so many programs made for WIndows | 15:48 |
| psycho_oreos | darksider, no worries :) | 15:48 |
| darksider | Zider, yeah i know... i might just install ubuntu server from a temp IDE optical then unplug it | 15:48 |
| Dekko | grodzilla: I am sure it does, but I think Arch is just as difficult to use and setup as I like it to be. | 15:48 |
| Insomniaque | psycho_oreos: I know. I love it for that. =P | 15:48 |
| Zider | darksider: I have a "normal" pc case with 6 or so drives as server | 15:48 |
| obscurant1st | geekphreak, ^^ | 15:48 |
| from_brazil | geekphreak: what's in skype site?? | 15:48 |
| geekphreak | obscurant1st: wicd installed? | 15:48 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, mmhmm ._. | 15:48 |
| darksider | Zider, ah... i thought about that but all my bits are fubar | 15:48 |
| geekphreak | from_brazil: yes on skype site | 15:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Insomniaque: i often find the opposite.. I have programs for linux.. that i would like in windows. :) | 15:48 |
| Insomniaque | Haha | 15:48 |
| Insomniaque | One sec. | 15:48 |
| grodzilla | Dekko: it's true ^^ | 15:48 |
| Dekko | But can someone tell me if it is possible to upgrade GNOME to 2.30 on Jaunty? | 15:48 |
| maginot | Dr_Willis, agreed | 15:49 |
| Insomniaque | Dr_Willis: It works both ways. | 15:49 |
| from_brazil | geekphreak: what stuff is in skype site?? | 15:49 |
| FallenSparrow | also it says no root file system when selecting my newly made ext4 partition on ssd. how do i fix this, it sayts correct from partitioning menu | 15:49 |
| Zider | darksider: it's been upgraded a number of times since I got it, now it's at ~5TB :) | 15:49 |
| Insomniaque | Anyone heard of longene? | 15:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Dekko: well theres always the source.. or unoffical ppa/repos.. | 15:49 |
| darksider | =O awesome | 15:49 |
| geekphreak | from_brazil: skype for 32 bit system ubuntu 8 .04 | 15:49 |
| maginot | from_brazil, the ubuntu package you want ... for 8.04 | 15:49 |
| Dekko | Dr_willis - where do I find these unofficial PPA's for Gnome 2.30? | 15:49 |
| FallenSparrow | dekko have you tried yet | 15:49 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, sounds like missing mount point | 15:49 |
| Insomniaque | My friend pointed me to it the other day, apparently a pathced linux kernel mixing some Windows and Wine source-code for .exe execution? | 15:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Dekko: i would have to point to google. | 15:49 |
| darksider | i will be back in a bit- need to do my house cleaning and seech = left it til now because my lappy's health is more important | 15:49 |
| obscurant1st | geekphreak, I uninstalled it, i mean wicd, | 15:49 |
| FallenSparrow | mountn point shoudl just be "/" correct | 15:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Dekko: im testing 10.04 on all my box's now. | 15:49 |
| === darksider is now known as darksider`afk | ||
| from_brazil | geekphreak: well, in downloads page I just see for ubuntu 8.10 | 15:50 |
| from_brazil | can't you see? | 15:50 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, there's plenty of those | 15:50 |
| geekphreak | obscurant1st: make sure network manager is in services starting up | 15:50 |
| psycho_oreos | FallenSparrow, yes | 15:50 |
| Insomniaque | psycho_oreos: How many of them work better than Wine? | 15:50 |
| obscurant1st | Geekthras, how can i check that?? | 15:50 |
| geekphreak | from_brazil: hold on let me get it | 15:50 |
| from_brazil | geekphreak: ok! | 15:50 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, I don't bother trying those, wine doesn't work with every windows app | 15:50 |
| Dekko | Dr_Willis I don't want to have to clean install because I have configured my setup the way I want it .... | 15:51 |
| Insomniaque | psycho_oreos: In my opinion, Wine only works for a select few programs. My friend said Longene worked better, so I was going to try it but then I got busy with other stuff. | 15:51 |
| bobenth | !test | 15:51 |
| ubottu | hrm? | 15:51 |
| bobenth | !testing | 15:51 |
| obscurant1st | geekphreak, how can i do it? | 15:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Dekko: this is when you learn how to backup/restore config files I guess.. or go track down some ppa's that may or may not work that great. | 15:51 |
| psycho_oreos | Insomniaque, never heard of longene, but I know there's two commercial versions of wine, one is codeweavers, the other is cedega | 15:52 |

| dmackdady | can anyone pls tell me if there is a Visual Basic ``like`` program for ubuntu?? | 15:56 |
| rash502 | i did all what the documentation asks | 15:57 |
| Insomniaque | dmackdady: Look at Qt with Qt Designer? It's C++ but it has a Designer like VB6 does. | 15:57 |
| Insomniaque | You won't find BASIC for Linux though, I don't think. | 15:57 |
| ruggero | best visualbasic "like" would be Python, imho | 15:57 |
| maginot | frenzy1, but if you are having problems why not just don't use it for that kind of operation and using other application? After all if you remove you will not be able to use it anyway | 15:57 |

| FallenSparrow | so then what is all this i hear about aligning ssd to blcok and erase block size, and all this. is that just for peak performance, also if so can these additions be done post instal | 16:00 |
| Dr_Willis | I think there is some new filesystems in the works that make use of some of the features of SSD"s or some how reduce wear on them. :) but ive just seen a few bits of info on that topic at various sites | 16:00 |

| jenue | please help me on how to set environment variable in ubuntu. i'm having a hard time setting the JAVA_HOME | 16:06 |
| LALFGM | fallensparrow: yes | 16:06 |
| FallenSparrow | have you tried traceroute, adn pin | 16:06 |
| FallenSparrow | see if you can ping the router itself | 16:06 |
| ikonia | jenue: JAVA_HOME=where/you/want/to/set/it | 16:06 |
| maginot | ikonia, isn't an away message for god's sake, I'm just saying something... nevermind, I'm out anyway | 16:06 |
| LALFGM | fallensparrow: I have tried all of that | 16:06 |
| Insomniaque | jenue: http://www.codecoffee.com/tipsforlinux/articles/030.html = VARIABLE=value | 16:06 |
| FallenSparrow | is this YOUR wireless connection | 16:06 |
| LALFGM | yes it is | 16:06 |
| ikonia | maginot: people don't need to hear it, you're telling people you're away, it's an away message | 16:06 |
| LALFGM | fallensparrow:yes it is | 16:06 |
| Insomniaque | ikonia, maginot: we're also in #ubuntu not #argue-about-away-messages | 16:07 |
| FallenSparrow | connect with wire, download all updates. restart, see if that fixes issue, a lo of times my lap has an issue grabbing new networks until i reboot | 16:07 |
| ikonia | Insomniaque: I'm aware of that | 16:07 |
| Insomniaque | ikonia: /msg is a pretty neat tool then ;) | 16:07 |
| maginot | I'm too... not arguing any more =) | 16:07 |
| Curly_Q | CCNA is necessary Insomniaque but the A+ Certification is mandatory in this field. This is to everyone here on the channel because I teach classes in A+ and many companies will not hire you without the A+ cert. | 16:07 |
| LALFGM | fallensparrow: what updates i am running the latest version of ubuntu | 16:08 |
| Zider | <- has A+ and N+ | 16:08 |
| bazhang | !ot > Curly_Q | 16:08 |

| ikonia | Zider: please stop | 16:08 |
| FallenSparrow | okok expalain exactly what is going on | 16:08 |
| ikonia | !offtopic | Zider | 16:08 |
| ubottu | Zider: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 16:08 |
| Insomniaque | Rawr! At 150KB/s my download of the 700mb file just failed. >_> | 16:08 |
| Insomniaque | "No route to host" | 16:08 |
| Insomniaque | rawr. | 16:08 |
| LALFGM | fallensparrow: may I pm you? | 16:08 |
| Zider | oh sorry, I thought I was in #ubuntu-offtopic :/ | 16:08 |
| FallenSparrow | yes | 16:09 |
| jenue | ikonia: thanks. is the variable now permanent? coz i don't want to set again everytime i log in | 16:09 |
| Curly_Q | Thanks for the info Ubottu. | 16:09 |
| ikonia | jenue: set it in your .bash_profile or .bashrc | 16:09 |
| theadmin | or in .profile | 16:10 |
| ikonia | theadmin: no | 16:10 |
| theadmin | ikonia: Why not? | 16:10 |
| Insomniaque | Does anybody know if wget has an option to "continue" a cancelled / uncompleted download? | 16:10 |
| ikonia | theadmin: bash and dash to not parse that | 16:10 |
| theadmin | ikonia: It's parsed at log in to the desktop, not at bash start, yes | 16:10 |
| Trashi | hi guys. i did mount a ftp directory via curlftpfs ... but i cannot change or write files... if i connect with my ftp client from my homepc it works fine .. who can help? | 16:10 |
| ikonia | theadmin: I'm not aware of it being parsed at all, but it could be | 16:11 |
| ikonia | theadmin: it's normally for Bourne or Korn shell | 16:11 |
| Curly_Q | Insomniaque, why not just try to re-install. | 16:11 |
| theadmin | Insomniaque: nope :( as far as i'm aware | 16:11 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: ? | 16:11 |
| theadmin | Curly_Q: She/he has slow internet | 16:11 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: I was trying to download the Ubuntu ISO with a slow connection, and it just died at 80% | 16:11 |
| Insomniaque | >_> | 16:11 |
| topland | does anybody know how to connect openmoko neo1973 with internet | 16:12 |
| Curly_Q | Insomniaque are you trying to use FILE SHARING or just straight download? | 16:12 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: Just a straight downlaod. | 16:12 |
| Niek | is their some kind of application i can use to setup a connection to some kind of server, (different protocols, SSL, TLS, etc) to check if i can connect? | 16:12 |
| ikonia | topland: openmoko is not an ubuntu device,m it's not supported here | 16:12 |
| jenue | ikonia: my .bashrc has a lot of entries. do i just have to append the variable? | 16:12 |
| theadmin | jenue: yes | 16:13 |
| ikonia | jenue: if there is no JAVA_HOME set, make a new one, if there is one, remove the values or change them | 16:13 |
| ikonia | theadmin: no | 16:13 |
| tmg1|fwtaylor | ... | 16:13 |
| ikonia | theadmin: there can only be one java_home - appending to an existing java home will stop it working | 16:13 |
| jenue | theadmin: thanks | 16:13 |
| theadmin | ikonia: no what? :/ Are you suggesting to remove whatever is already there? | 16:13 |
| ikonia | theadmin: yes | 16:13 |
| haavaros | Now I have partitioned and formatted my new harddrive. It's on my server and will be used for backup and shares. How do I make sure that all files and folders will be rw-able to everyone? | 16:13 |
| jenue | ikonia: thanks! ur awesome | 16:13 |
| Curly_Q | File sharing seems to be much faster in my case, but, what is the connection speed Insomniaque? Also have you tried www.dslreports.com to see if your speed is what it really is? | 16:14 |
| Insomniaque | haavaros: chmod 777 /path/to/directory | 16:14 |
| Insomniaque | I believe | 16:14 |
| haavaros | Insomniaque: and the path is the mount point? | 16:14 |
| theadmin | Insomniaque: I'd use torrents if i were you to download Ubuntu | 16:14 |
| tsyj2007 | hi,I want to know what is new in 10.04 | 16:14 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: Well yeah, file sharing is faster. But if I don't have the iso on any computer I MUST download to the directory. | 16:14 |
| Pici | tsyj2007: See the topic in #ubuntu+1 | 16:15 |
| Insomniaque | theadmin: Torrents via command line are hard, and I'm not going to get faster than 160 kb/s period, and that's what I'm getting via HTTP download. | 16:15 |
| anonyme | ja tu nejaky slovak alebo cech? | 16:15 |
| chao06 | tsyj2007: google is your friend | 16:15 |
| ikonia | !cz | anonyme | 16:15 |
| ubottu | anonyme: České uživatele žádáme, aby mluvili v kanále #ubuntu anglicky. Česky je možno se domluvit v #ubuntu-cz. Děkujeme. | 16:15 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: My speed is 768 kbps / 368 kbps | 16:15 |
| Insomniaque | Which gives me about 150 to 160 KBps download. | 16:15 |
| tsyj2007 | chao06: yes ,i am always using it | 16:15 |
| Curly_Q | Insomniaque, I am willing to go the extra mile and try to DCC Send Ubuntu by way of IRC. I have to think about it for a moment though. Are you interested? | 16:15 |
| FallenSparrow | hey i have i5 processor, why can i not install the AMD64 vs of chrome | 16:15 |
| tsyj2007 | chao06: hehe | 16:16 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: are you running a 64bit ubuntu install ? | 16:16 |
| FallenSparrow | i thought amd4 was for amd64 and et64 (intel) | 16:16 |
| FallenSparrow | yes | 16:16 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: show us the output of "uname -a" please | 16:16 |
| theadmin | Insomniaque: Torrents are at least resumable | 16:16 |
| dharrison | hi anybody able to help me with a rsyslog setup please? | 16:17 |
| ikonia | dharrison: what's the issue ? | 16:17 |
| haavaros | to chmod 777 an entire disk, is the mount point the correct file path? | 16:17 |
| sloopy | haavaros, why would you want to do that? | 16:17 |
| theadmin | haavaros: yes, however, use the recursive flag, and also i'd use 666 if i were you (what's the point of making everything executable?!) | 16:17 |
| ikonia | theadmin: because it would remove the executable flag from the execuatables, that's why | 16:18 |
| haavaros | sloopy: theadmin: I just applied a tip I got here. It's on my server behind my NAT router/fw, and everything there should be fully accessible to all my comps. What do you suggest? | 16:18 |
| Curly_Q | Insomniaque I have the ability with my IRC client to send you TDCC protocol. | 16:18 |
| Curly_Q | It is a much faster protocol. | 16:19 |
| theadmin | haavaros: oh well, chmod -R 777 mountpoint | 16:19 |
| FallenSparrow | says i686 | 16:20 |
| FallenSparrow | i assume that is 32 | 16:20 |
| FallenSparrow | but i just instaled 64bit | 16:20 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: correct | 16:20 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: no you didn't, you installed 32bitr | 16:20 |
| haavaros | theadmin, sloopy, ikonia: thx guys | 16:20 |
| coz_ | FallenSparrow, no that is 32 bit | 16:20 |
| kalkin- | hi | 16:20 |
| coz_ | FallenSparrow, and you co uldnt have installed 64 bit it wont install | 16:20 |
| kalkin- | i need to use libapache-mod-python, but i need it to use the 2.5 version of python | 16:20 |
| kalkin- | how do i do that? | 16:20 |
| FallenSparrow | why wont it install | 16:20 |
| FallenSparrow | oh you mean that is why chrome wont instal of course | 16:21 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: because you're running a 32bit install | 16:21 |
| coz_ | FallenSparrow, if you have a 32 bit system the 64 bit live cd will tell you it is the wrong architecture | 16:21 |
| Roasted | How can I tell the mac address of the wireless access point I'm connected to? | 16:21 |
| FallenSparrow | no i have i5 so i am 64 bit | 16:21 |
| FallenSparrow | for sure | 16:21 |
| haavaros | theadmin: Btw, will all folders and files added later always be rw to everyone? | 16:21 |
| FallenSparrow | i5 750 | 16:21 |
| ikonia | Roasted: you need to speak to the wirless AP administrator | 16:21 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: then you need to install the 64bit OS | 16:21 |
| coz_ | FallenSparrow, in terminal uname -m | 16:21 |
| LALFGM | anyone know about network conenctions? | 16:22 |
| ikonia | coz_: he's already shown is is 386 | 16:22 |

| mitc0185 | Just starting to use Lucid Beta 2... can I have the mail notifier in the upper right corner check my Gmail account? when I go to set up mail it starts the Evolution setup, and I don't want to use Evolution. | 16:22 |
| ikonia | dharrison: have you got your syslog rules setup to to accept and log from the remote servers on your recieving server ? | 16:22 |

| ikonia | swan: sure | 16:23 |
| dharrison | hi. do you know where i do that please? | 16:23 |
| FallenSparrow | if i put in teh correcnt CD can i upgrade inplace | 16:23 |
| ikonia | dharrison: in the syslog config | 16:23 |
| dharrison | rsyslog.conf? | 16:23 |
| ikonia | dharrison: no, well, it depends how you've got the recieving server setup | 16:23 |
| mitc0185 | ty | 16:23 |
| Roasted | ikonia, well, I kind of am. | 16:24 |
| ikonia | Roasted: then you need to look in your AP's gui | 16:24 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I'm setting up wireless access points, and there's only 1 AP in the area that I put up. Yet the MAC ont he sticker of it doesn't match up the MAC I'm finding in "connected to" within the wifi radar gui. | 16:25 |
| ikonia | Roasted: you need to check in your gui | 16:25 |
| Roasted | ikonia, so I'm trying to figure out what's wrong - the program or the sticker. So I was trying to find a different application (perhaps a terminal command?) to dig it up. maybe even wireshark? | 16:25 |
| Roasted | ikonia, well, I'm not the *Network* administrator, however I'm the one setting up *this* wireless. | 16:25 |
| ikonia | Roasted: that's not na ubuntu issue | 16:25 |
| ikonia | Roasted: you need to use your wirless AP's gui | 16:25 |
| Roasted | ikonia, right - but I'm asking for an UBUNTU solution. Something I can run in terminal or some kind of Ubuntu application to find it - since I'm... you know... running Ubuntu. | 16:26 |
| ikonia | Roasted: no, you need to use your wirless AP's gui | 16:26 |
| Roasted | ikonia, thanks for your help. | 16:26 |
| Roasted | Question - is there any way within Ubuntu I can find the mac address of the current wireless access point I'm connected to? | 16:26 |
| farciarz84 | hi where the files of exising postgres dbs are kept on ubuntu? | 16:26 |
| ikonia | Roasted: arp | 16:26 |
| FallenSparrow | ok i am trying to install teh 64 bit and it says somethgin about purging guest somethgin and it makes me log in | 16:26 |
| Roasted | ikonia, oh, so there IS a way to do it in Ubuntu? :P | 16:26 |
| ikonia | Roasted: no | 16:26 |
| FallenSparrow | instead of just taking me to the desktp | 16:27 |
| geekphreak | FallenSparrow: looked in /var/lib ?? | 16:27 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: where did you get the CD | 16:27 |
| Roasted | ikonia, appreciate the help. I'll keep searching/asking. | 16:27 |
| FallenSparrow | dvd release | 16:27 |
| ikonia | Roasted: arp will show you the mac's curently connected | 16:27 |
| geekphreak | farciarz84: i mean :) | 16:27 |
| ikonia | FallenSparrow: from where | 16:27 |
| ikonia | Roasted: it won't show you the factual device you want's mac | 16:27 |
| ikonia | Roasted: for that you need to use the gui | 16:27 |
| FallenSparrow | torrent link provided on ubuntu alt release linkl | 16:27 |
| Roasted | ikonia, meaning it'll show me the MAC of the wireless adapter in my laptop - not the actual access point? | 16:28 |
| Infin1ty | Roasted, iwlist <interface> ap | 16:28 |
| ikonia | Roasted: no, it wil show you the mac address of any device your connected to, however wirless AP's don't always use their real physical device mac | 16:28 |

| fwryan8 | Hello all -- I have quick question. I am installing a server, but one of the packages I use has a better version in the Debian repository. But the package name is the same in both Debian and Ubuntu. Is there a way to tell apt-get to always get this package from a particular repository? | 16:34 |
| Dr_Willis | fwryan8: that can break things very badly. | 16:34 |
| Dr_Willis | fwryan8: if you need the latest - there might be Ubuntu PPA repos for what3ever it is you want. | 16:34 |
| andyb | question for whomever. 10.04, pretty new install. Top right in the notifications next to volume control... how do i get rid of the little envelope icon? I can't figure out what's running it | 16:34 |
| theadmin | fwryan8: Ubuntu uses Ubuntu repositories and NOT debian ones, however, you can add the debian repos to sources.list if you know the risks | 16:35 |
| themusicgod1 | huh | 16:35 |
| theadmin | ubottu: lucid | andyb | 16:35 |
| ubottu | andyb: 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 | 16:35 |
| maginot | fwryan8, is you need something very much maybe it is better to build it your self them using from a wrong repository (some libs may be at different places, etc) | 16:35 |
| fwryan8 | Dr_Willis: thanks | 16:35 |
| Dr_Willis | andyb: see #ubuntu+1 and see http://delicious.com/dr_willis under my bookmarks/tags somewhere.. on a guide how to remove the 'social' icons that people dont want | 16:35 |
| themusicgod1 | dpkg-reconfigure worked | 16:36 |
| themusicgod1 | that hasn't happened in awhile :) | 16:36 |
| themusicgod1 | sweeet | 16:36 |
| Insomniaque | Hey, I'm back. | 16:36 |
| themusicgod1 | andyb: might not be a terrible idea to just install that one package by hand(?) | 16:36 |
| maginot | *is/if | 16:36 |
| andyb | happiness. thanks. | 16:36 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: DCC would be no quicker, in fact it would probably be slower. | 16:36 |
| Insomniaque | Thanks for the offer though. | 16:36 |

| theadmin | Hm, i wonder, could "dd if=/dev/scd0 of=$HOME/somefile.iso" work? | 16:39 |
| maginot | theadmin, it will.. | 16:39 |
| maginot | theadmin, don't know if it will work to what you need, but will work and generate a image file | 16:39 |
| theadmin | maginot: yay then :P *goes creating a Ubuntu ISO of his own CD because I lost the original one* | 16:40 |
| Curly_Q | Insomniaque it is not DCC send but TDCC send. There is a difference. If your client will allow it, it is a fast brute force send. But it is your choice. | 16:40 |
| Curly_Q | It is like UDP send. | 16:40 |
| maginot | theadmin, do you mean, if it works to make a iso to be burned on a cd ? | 16:40 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: First off, unplugging the ethernet cord means my computer is no longer connected to the router meaning it's no longer connected to the internet... | 16:41 |
| frxstrem | is there a program like FL studio, but for Ubuntu(/Linux)? | 16:41 |
| Insomniaque | Which is why my download died earlier. | 16:41 |
| siropio | hello, can anyone tell how to put pwm library for widgets for python3.0 in ubuntu?i went at /usr/lib/python3.0/ but i dont know where to put it so python can knows about it | 16:41 |
| Curly_Q | I see. | 16:41 |
| theadmin | maginot: I have Ubuntu CD, wanna create a ISO of it for later redistribution | 16:41 |
| Insomniaque | Also, Curly_Q: It would be no faster, I'm telling you. At peak speeds, my internet can download at 170 KB/s, right now it's at 160 KB/s, it won't get faster. =P | 16:41 |
| Curly_Q | It sounds like a timeout problem though. | 16:41 |
| Insomniaque | Thanks for the offer though. | 16:41 |
| maginot | theadmin, yeah, sure it will AFAIK | 16:42 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: ? No it said "No route to host." | 16:42 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: Because the internet was unplugged, it didn't know how to route the request. ;) | 16:42 |
| Insomniaque | It was using "links" for Linux. ;) | 16:42 |
| Curly_Q | I see. | 16:42 |

| obiwan_ | i need help either from you or from above, but first options looks more feasible hehe | 16:44 |
| theadmin | What about something like this then? dd if=/dev/zero of=somefile bs=1024 - would that create a 1 mb zero-filled file? | 16:45 |
| obiwan_ | i wanna get the fsck rid of hecking audio problems | 16:45 |

| obiwan_ | and now i got problems with alsa, i'm really going mad | 16:45 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, did you check the cd for errors? | 16:45 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, i'm not going back to vista.... | 16:45 |
| theadmin | jrib: and this one does what? | 16:45 |
| jrib | theadmin: otherwise it will go forever | 16:45 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: My hard drive is 80 GB, my external hdd is 500 GB. | 16:46 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, when the live cd starts it should have an options to check the cd for errors | 16:46 |
| Insomniaque | My laptop's was 500 GB before it asploded. >_> | 16:46 |
| maginot | theAdib, no, you need to use count option them, dd if=/dev/zero of=somefile bs=1024 count=1 | 16:46 |
| maginot | theadmin, wrong nick ^ | 16:46 |
| Dr_Willis | humblelinuxusr: ive rarely had problems.. i do find that making a bootable usb flash drive. instad of an cd. seems to install beter for me most of the time | 16:46 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, also when downloading a cd there is a checksum you could run with md5sum to be sure the download is not corrupted | 16:46 |
| jrib | theadmin: you're saying take 1024 bytes at a time from the /dev/zero file until the end, but /dev/zero has no end :) | 16:46 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, well didn't do that, but after the install the system worked so nice...until updates....and when updating i had a power crash | 16:46 |
| obiwan_ | np coz_ hehe | 16:46 |
| === FiReSTaRT is now known as Guest88612 | ||
| theadmin | jrib: Yah, the infinite pit, this /dev/zero is | 16:47 |
| maginot | jrib, that make a file with the disk size, you need count option like I said | 16:47 |
| coz_ | obiwan_, i dont blame you for uninstalling pulse... I done use it here at all | 16:47 |
| jrib | maginot: right | 16:47 |
| Curly_Q | Insomniaque what is the size of your SWAP file? | 16:47 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, turned back on my laptop and pow, only ubuntu logo and it stops at it.....nothing else | 16:47 |
| Dr_Willis | ive seen some guides on 'simpiler' ways to disable pulse. with out 'uninstalling' pulse. | 16:47 |
| maginot | theadmin, jrib /dev/zero output zeros infinitively | 16:48 |
| maginot | =) | 16:48 |
| Dr_Willis | humblelinuxusr: you updated while on battery? or was it plugged into the wall? | 16:48 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, ok put in the live cd and run the cd check | 16:48 |
| theadmin | maginot: And /dev/null outputs nothing at all %) | 16:48 |
| StevePutnam | I have a problem with locking my screen, sometimes when i enter a correct password it says "checking" and never lets me in. After it times out it will let me try again, about 5 mins or so. Any ideas? | 16:48 |
| maginot | theadmin, to make a blank cd imagine you can use dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/disk.img bs=1M count=4096 | 16:48 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, it's the 6 time i format my laptop hdd...in this way i will have a dead hdd in no time:(as my laptop is brand new | 16:48 |
| maginot | theadmin, I mean, a blank disk | 16:49 |
| Dr_Willis | why would someone need a blank cd image? | 16:49 |
| theadmin | maginot: huh, why do you set count to 4096? Craziness | 16:49 |
| humblelinuxusr | Dr_Willis, plugged into wall only | 16:49 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, i am not asking you to reformat the cd just run the cd check from the live cd | 16:49 |
| Dr_Willis | humblelinuxusr: seems odd that it lost power if its a laptop. Battery was dead? | 16:49 |
| jrib | Dr_Willis: riaa? | 16:49 |
| Z4ck | Hi i need help with grub | 16:49 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, rather I am not asking for you to reformat the drive | 16:49 |
| Z4ck | somebody? | 16:50 |
| wejick | Z4ck: whats ur problem | 16:50 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: ask | 16:50 |
| coz_ | Z4ck, what is the issue? | 16:50 |
| coz_ | :) | 16:50 |
| Curly_Q | StevePutnam when you are able to log into your box, make sure you check the screen saver settings and timout settings. It may be set to a very high security setting. | 16:50 |
| humblelinuxusr | Dr_Willis, no battery only wall plug....i had problems with my electric current...and everything went down | 16:50 |
| coz_ | o0 | 16:50 |
| maginot | theadmin, I don't know, 4gb? I dvd could handle that =) | 16:50 |
| maginot | *I/One | 16:50 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, i know but i have to do it again, since ubuntu won't start | 16:50 |
| Dr_Willis | humblelinuxusr: Thats one of the many reasons that UPS's are sold. | 16:50 |
| Z4ck | wejick, how can config the grub version that comes with ubuntu 9.10 | 16:50 |
| theadmin | maginot: That's actually 4 MB, no? | 16:50 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: i'm really mad at sound in karmic, i'm just really fed up of it. problems on the internet, problems with totem, problems with evyerthing sound related. I got just alsa installed in my gentoo and works like a charm, and it used too in jaunty. BUt now it's a terrible thing and i just want listen to some hecking dire straits music while working, but for tux' sake i cant and ...well i'm feeling like killing somebody haha | 16:51 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, thats fine but if you run the cd check and it is corrupt you dont want to install with that cd | 16:51 |
| maginot | theadmin, no, 1M x 4096 = 1024 x 4096 | 16:51 |
| humblelinuxusr | Dr_Willis, i know but i can't afford one... i bearlly bought myself a laptop:( | 16:51 |
| Insomniaque | Curly_Q: I'm not sure, why? | 16:51 |
| theadmin | maginot: But it's in kilobytes, no? I mean, the count parameter | 16:51 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: what actually are you trying to do? | 16:51 |
| wejick | Z4ck: little googling will help you | 16:51 |
| coz_ | obiwan_, same here ... I have to compile alsa for my sound card anyway since pulse doesn support it | 16:51 |
| maginot | theadmin, actually just did the calc: 1048576 x 4096 | 16:51 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, ok i will....if you format your hdd for many times...will something bad happen to it? | 16:52 |
| Dr_Willis | humblelinuxusr: best thing to do - would be use live cd.. backup your imporntant data/configs. and reinstall | 16:52 |
| Z4ck | geekphreak, to make it clear i already have ubuntu installed on target machine but i have the need to also have windows xp installed | 16:52 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, will i lose my warranty? | 16:52 |
| maginot | theadmin, in the end you have 4096MB | 16:52 |
| maginot | =D | 16:52 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, well eventually it will wear out but no you wont lose warranty | 16:52 |
| Dr_Willis | humblelinuxusr: it may be hard to 'repair' or it may not be hard to fix.. totally depends on what got messed up when the power went out | 16:52 |
| theadmin | hm something way wtfish is going on here | 16:53 |
| Curly_Q | Oblwan don't despair. It may be just a simple solution. First of all you need to check your speakers for ohmic values first and do a Technical inspection of the electronics. Then from that point on, your sound card may not be compatible with your system. | 16:53 |
| Dr_Willis | humblelinuxusr: a warrenty that it broken by reformating a HD. isent much of a warrenty | 16:53 |
| theadmin | oh never mind XD messed up the package name | 16:53 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: but do you need to compile alsa ? i thought it's enough just removing pulseaudio | 16:53 |
| coz_ | Dr_Willis, :) | 16:53 |
| themusic1od1 | hmmm | 16:53 |
| coz_ | obiwan_, I personally have to compile it for my card | 16:53 |
| themusic1od1 | n'ow gdm-greeter isn't showing up | 16:53 |
| maginot | theadmin, if you got interest, you may take a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_%28Unix%29 is a good material | 16:53 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: if you install xp now, it will wash of gru, should have installed windows first | 16:53 |
| geekphreak | Pici: got link to dual boot? | 16:54 |
| Artiii | Hi to all | 16:54 |
| maginot | Hey | 16:54 |
| coz_ | Artiii, hey guy | 16:54 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: i removed pulseaudio and just in case, i have just reinstalled alsa, and still sound won't work, i set up alsamixer at top sound (unmuted ofc), and it doesn't sound. | 16:54 |
| RyanP | Does anyone know where I might be able to get some help on webmin? | 16:54 |
| coz_ | obiwan_, which sound card do you have ? | 16:55 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, ohh....i have a 3 year warranty....i was scared if formating to many times i will lose my hdd ....that's why i was so nervous....that i lose warranty too... | 16:55 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, thanks | 16:55 |
| dr3mro | hello , windows 7 has a feature to create a recovery image of a partition and add a boot option to recover that image if any thing goes wrong .. and create a boot up cd to boot if the system is not bootable and apply the recovery is there something simlilar iin linux world | 16:55 |
| jrib | !webmin | RyanP | 16:55 |
| ubottu | RyanP: 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. | 16:55 |
| Z4ck | geekphreak, agreed but that wasn't my choice. i would preffer to run linux only | 16:55 |
| Artiii | i have one problem,puted new cam in my pc this is output for lsusb http://paste.ubuntu.com/411661/ ,but pidgin dosent recogniz it | 16:55 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, no chance the warranty will void if you continually format drive:) | 16:55 |
| jrib | dr3mro: partimage, but it's not exactly the same | 16:55 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: well , what do you plan to do now? | 16:55 |
| RyanP | !ebox | 16:55 |
| ubottu | 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 | 16:55 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: install win, then reinstall grub? | 16:55 |
| Artiii | coz_ Hi | 16:55 |
| jrib | dr3mro: or maybe lvm snapshots but I have no experience with that | 16:56 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, thank you...only if you mess around with the laptop like braking i appart no? | 16:56 |
| haavaros | Can I connect to my ubuntu server with a terminal server somehow? VNC is sooo slow | 16:56 |
| Artiii | i have one problem,puted new cam in my pc this is output for lsusb http://paste.ubuntu.com/411661/ ,but pidgin dosent recogniz it how can i fix this,can someone help me? | 16:56 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: an intel chipset one | 16:56 |
| themusic1od1 | aha | 16:56 |
| coz_ | humblelinuxusr, well you dont want to take the laptop apart | 16:56 |
| dr3mro | jrib, any other ideas .. its realy good feature specially for noobs | 16:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | haavaros, SSH for command line connections | 16:56 |
| switch10_ | haavaros: ssh | 16:56 |
| giulia | ciao | 16:57 |
| coz_ | obiwan_, there is a way to compile t his for your card...you will have to find which card it is specifically let me see if I can find a good how to | 16:57 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller | 16:57 |
| Z4ck | geekphreak, that is what i want. but don't now how to install grub again, only have the one that comes with ubuntu karmic cd | 16:57 |
| dr3mro | jrib, if any thin goes wrong just do a repair from grum menu and system is back again | 16:57 |
| haavaros | ZykoticK9: Yeah, I do that mostly, but for some tasks I'd like a gui | 16:57 |
| humblelinuxusr | coz_, hehe, i was just saying:)no no way i will brake it into small pieces, thanks:) | 16:57 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: but it works | 16:57 |
| giulia | !list | 16:57 |
| ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 16:57 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: if i restart, it works | 16:57 |
| coz_ | obiwan_, oh ok neverminde then :) | 16:57 |
| obiwan_ | coz_: it'sj ust it gets a mess when i run some sound things | 16:57 |
| Z4ck | geekphreak, sorry for the english | 16:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | haavaros, you can check out freenx - never used it myself, but I hear/read that it's a faster vnc | 16:57 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: install windows, if you have alternate version of cd, then just use rescue mode, else you will have to run some commands :) | 16:57 |
| RyanP | Freenx is pretty amazing. | 16:58 |
| coz_ | obiwan_, oh ok ...then you might want to go to the #alsa channel and maybe speak with crimson | 16:58 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: which ubuntu version you got | 16:58 |
| jrib | dr3mro: well, in linux world, just have your /home on a separate partition. It's rare for anything to go horribly wrong, but if it does, just grab your install disk and reinstal. When you boot with your old home, everything will be the same. (User configuration is kept in /home away from system stuff) | 16:58 |
| Z4ck | geekphreak, karmic | 16:58 |
| geekphreak | ok | 16:58 |
| obiwan_ | ok i'll try there coz_ tyvm bro | 16:58 |
| zamba | i have a problem with oidentd in karmic not binding to the ipv6 interface.. this works just fine in intrepid with identical configuration.. any idea? | 16:58 |
| switch10_ | haavaros: why not mount the remote drive and use it like a local drive? Then you can use Nautilus to drag and drop | 16:58 |
| vinzzz | bye here | 16:58 |
| dr3mro | i have an idea ... to have a tar file with all root / without the /home and a tar with all dot files on /home and a script that extract those files and add this script to the grub menu ... any one help me with that | 16:59 |
| FallenSparrow | wow is caffeine to prevent ubuntu from falling asleep while wathhcing movies, shoudlnt thhat be an option anyways. | 16:59 |
| FallenSparrow | i coudl never get my ubuntu to "stay away" for an entire movie | 16:59 |
| geekphreak | Z4ck: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 16:59 |
| haavaros | switch10_: I guess that would work, thx | 16:59 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: totem does it by default. | 17:00 |
| jrib | dr3mro: it's a silly idea imo. Just have /home on a separate partition and make backups of your important things (/msg ubottu backups) | 17:00 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: I think there is an option somewhere in VLC.. | 17:00 |
| Dr_Willis | FallenSparrow: VLC defainatly has that option.. im pretty sure its enabled by default | 17:00 |
| dr3mro | jrib, sometimes my system just get failing and error emerge from installing a bad app and there is no system retore in ubuntu and if it goes wrong why we don't have this option | 17:01 |
| FallenSparrow | never worked for me | 17:01 |
| jrib | dr3mro: when was the last time that happened and how? | 17:01 |
| Dr_Willis | FallenSparrow: its possible its the POWER saving settings that may be kicking in.. not the screensaver | 17:01 |
| jrib | dr3mro: you can do whatever you want of course but I don't see it as that useful | 17:02 |
| FallenSparrow | yea tat is the key, but i cannot disable it, even throughi have changed teh option a million time | 17:02 |
| FallenSparrow | its a desktop btw | 17:02 |
| switch10_ | Dr_Willis: FallenSparrow: yes... | 17:02 |
| ubuntu | when upgrading from Xubuntu 9.01 to 10.04 had a HD power failure at last moment and GRUB wasn't created, now I'm booting by Pendrive and have the HD connect, how can I fix that? | 17:03 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: which settings are you changing? | 17:03 |
| jrib | !lucid | ubuntu | 17:03 |
| ubottu | ubuntu: 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 | 17:03 |
| themusic1od1 | ubuntu: /sbin/grub-update or something? | 17:03 |
| dr3mro | jrib, last time my system was unstable because i added alot of untrusted ppas and i got all time errors and most of my apps not working any more even when i created a new user an wiped my /home i had to reinstall and it take me a day to download the packages again on slow internet connection .. would it be a good idea to have a repai option | 17:03 |
| Curly_Q | Dr Willis I agree. The screen saver has power shut down just as Windows does. It is a nuisance with Windows users and if it is a DUAL boot system the power saver is a potential problem. | 17:04 |
| FallenSparrow | http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html | 17:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Curly_Q: ive also seen where people disable the screensaver.. then think the powersaver is a screensaver.. its a seperate thing. (i always disable it) :) | 17:04 |
| FallenSparrow | what am i doing wrong | 17:04 |
| tanner | any idea why on the live cd ubuntu detects my video card but suddenly, after installing, it does not? | 17:04 |
| FallenSparrow | says mount point /mnt/dev does nto exits | 17:05 |
| jrib | dr3mro: right, you shouldn't really enable unofficial repositories you don't trust. Other than the methods I've already mentioned, I don't know of other ways to have something like a "restore" option | 17:05 |
| FallenSparrow | exist | 17:05 |
| === running_rabbit07 is now known as uRock | ||
| Curly_Q | Dr Willis I fully agree with you. I have seen that as well. | 17:05 |
| Dr_Willis | FallenSparrow: what are yo trying to do? you sure you dont have a typo in the command? | 17:05 |
| jrib | FallenSparrow: well, does it exist? | 17:05 |
| ubuntu | /sbin/grub-ipdate is absent | 17:05 |
| Dr_Willis | FallenSparrow: you Must make mountpoint dirs.. befor mounting things to them | 17:05 |
| theadmin | it's update-grub | 17:05 |
| Curly_Q | It also might be a BIOS setting as well. | 17:05 |

| Curly_Q | FallenSparrow, is your box a single partition or do you have separate logical partitions? That should answer your question. | 17:15 |

| Curly_Q | FallenSparrow, If you have a single partition for your box, that is your mistake. It is best to segregate the hard drive by dividing logically partitions for Windows and Linux. | 17:17 |

| Curly_Q | So now did you install Windows first on your DUAL boot system or Linux? | 17:19 |
| FallenSparrow | windows first curly | 17:19 |
| Airells | have you noticed any problem with GF 102M on beta version ? | 17:19 |
| jrib | Airells: #ubuntu+1 for help with lucid | 17:19 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: sudo fdisk -l will list your partition table. | 17:19 |
| arand | FallenSparrow: You may be trying to mount the windows partition, are you sure you are using the right sda# | 17:20 |
| FallenSparrow | wow....i think that is it | 17:20 |
| Curly_Q | FallenSparrow, I see. Windows has the propensity to take over the MBR, ie. Master Boot Record. Linux puts its own stuff where it wants. | 17:21 |
| bjarkef | Hmm, no #ubuntu+2. Where do we discuss the Meerkat? ;) | 17:21 |
| FallenSparrow | any clue if lucid may fix this make windows adn linux play nice | 17:21 |
| paraplegicpanda | Okay, I'm at it again today. Every time I press the W key it opens Nautilus. It just started yesterday morning after I booted up my box. | 17:21 |
| FallenSparrow | when i run fdisk -l nothign happens | 17:21 |
| Dr_Willis | FallenSparrow: add a sudo to the front | 17:21 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: sudo fdisk -l | 17:22 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: interesting. Create a new user and see if it still happens | 17:22 |
| switch10_ | or sudo !! | 17:22 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Good call, I'll try that. | 17:22 |

| FallenSparrow | yes i was picking wrong sda# | 17:26 |
| FallenSparrow | omg im a tool | 17:26 |
| bjarkef | jrib: He said all dot files and folders, I guess that is everything in the home folder except files directly in the home folder. Will be a bit more tricky ... ;) | 17:26 |
| FallenSparrow | i just wnat my ssd dual boot to work....jeez | 17:26 |
| jrib | bjarkef: I think he meant all dot (files and folders) but maybe you are right. Only dr3mro knows for sure :) | 17:26 |
| jrib | bjarkef: we'll never know now! | 17:27 |
| Kuifje111 | hi.. I think something's wrong. when I run an application and use htop it shows or ps aux it shows the cpu usage under the MEM% tab. any reason why this is happening? | 17:27 |
| bjarkef | jrib: That would make sense. | 17:27 |
| bjarkef | jrib: I guess he got what he wanted. | 17:27 |
| FallenSparrow | ok my dual boot does nto work. even thouugh i was able to reinsatll grub | 17:28 |
| jrib | Kuifje111: weird terminal size? | 17:28 |
| FallenSparrow | never opens grub | 17:28 |
| FallenSparrow | just straight to ubuntu | 17:28 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Yep, still happens on a new user. | 17:28 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: did you run update-grub? | 17:28 |
| Kuifje111 | jrib: dont think thats it, because when I sort by CPU% it doesnt go up, but when I sort by MEM% it does. | 17:29 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: you're sure no malicious user was on your system setting up some global keybinding? | 17:29 |

| skino | sorry for repost just incase wasnt seen before | 17:30 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: what? grub is not detecting your other OS. You need to get it to. update grub will do it for you | 17:30 |
| jrib | Kuifje111: how does nautilus open? | 17:30 |
| jrib | Kuifje111: erm, sorry. wrong issue :) | 17:30 |
| FallenSparrow | sudo it doesnt show that it found windows image | 17:30 |
| Kuifje111 | ok | 17:30 |
| CaptainTrek | skino: you've got a seg fault | 17:30 |
| FallenSparrow | only linux,. initrd and memtest | 17:30 |
| CaptainTrek | skino: might run a check on your drive | 17:30 |
| jrib | Kuifje111: what terminal emulator are you using on the remote machine? | 17:31 |
| coz_ | skino, did you install the current dropbox? | 17:31 |
| paraplegicpanda | Of course I'm not positive, but as far as I know no one that would know how to use linux has been in my apartment. There is only one other person with access to my wireless network and they're clueless as well. | 17:31 |
| FallenSparrow | grub still doe snto loat | 17:31 |
| FallenSparrow | not load | 17:31 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: so shift-w does it right? | 17:31 |
| Kuifje111 | jrib: I am not sure what you mean. sshd? /bin/bash? | 17:31 |
| jrib | Kuifje111: where are you typing "ssh blah"? | 17:32 |
| coz_ | skino, be back later | 17:32 |
| skino | Drives should Be ok... DRopbox current is installed ye | 17:32 |
| skino | i think lol | 17:32 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Nope, just "w". Holding the Shift key keeps it from happening. | 17:32 |
| Kuifje111 | jrib: putty? | 17:32 |
| jrib | Kuifje111: ok. See if it happens without putty | 17:32 |
| switch10_ | skino: I have had this same problem. Im trying to remember how I fixed it.... one sec | 17:32 |
| Kuifje111 | ok. | 17:33 |
| skino | i just got something else now 2 secs while i pastebin | 17:33 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: hmm, try hitting 'w' in the xev window and look for anything interesting | 17:33 |
| paraplegicpanda | xev window? | 17:33 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: run « xev », it will pop up a window with a box | 17:33 |

| skino | http://paste.ubuntu.com/411686/ | 17:34 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: the weird thing is I don't know of a default keyboard shortcut for nautilus (I thought maybe your keyboard was sending the wrong signal). Does the 'w' still get typed by the way? | 17:35 |

| airtonix | jrib, i think it is super + e | 17:35 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Yeah, the w still types, it just opens Nautilus as well. Here's the output from xev - http://paste.ubuntu.com/411687/ | 17:36 |

| Gene | hello student | 17:36 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: hmm, do you have a spare keyboard handy? | 17:37 |
| m4jh0l | jrib:but the gufw donot port forward and what i need is the port forward | 17:37 |
| jrib | m4jh0l: maybe firestarter? | 17:37 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Unfortunately no, but I'm pretty sure it's not the keyboard since it didn't happen in the livedisc. | 17:37 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: ah | 17:37 |
| m4jh0l | ok i will try it thanks alot | 17:38 |
| trucker | m4jh0l: shorewall lets you port forward, very easy to set up | 17:38 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: The only two default keyboard shortcuts with W in them I've found are Ctrl+W to close the Nautilus in focus and Ctrl+Shift+W to close all Nautilus windows. | 17:38 |
| m4jh0l | trucker:thanks alot man | 17:38 |
| Jadoza | is it possible to bring 'disowned' processes back up, to see outputs/messages etc? | 17:39 |

| robertzaccour | i tried to change the color of the taskbars but only part of the taskbar changes color. the menu parts don't change | 17:43 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: can you think of any possibility other than some daemon is catching 'w' and deciding to execute nautilus? | 17:44 |
| trucker | obiwan_: your welcome | 17:44 |
| obiwan_ | :P trucker hehe | 17:44 |
| FallenSparrow | ok grub loads but no winsows. even though this time it said adding windows | 17:44 |
| skino | jrib: samba is now installed | 17:45 |
| jrib | skino: still get the error? | 17:45 |
| robertzaccour | how do i change the color of the entire taskbar and not just the empty part? | 17:45 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Nope. Crucialhoax and I were trying to figure it out yesterday. The closest we came was a project of mine using GizmoD a few weeks ago, but we got rid of all of the config files and such, nothing is left from it. Other than that, there's not really anything other than Compiz that could be catching my keys. Already checked Compiz, too. | 17:46 |
| jrib | robertzaccour: art.gnome.org has a tutorial on creating gtk themes if that's what you are looking for | 17:46 |
| iceroot | robertzaccour: the color is controlled by the theme and not an extra option imo | 17:46 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: if you switch to metacity does it still happen? The weird thing is it's not user-specific | 17:46 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Also went through gconf to see if any of the keybinding things in there were set up to do it, but I couldn't find anything. | 17:46 |
| paraplegicpanda | Let me give that a try. | 17:46 |
| mattish | is there an easy way to tell what parameters a module is loaded with ? | 17:47 |
| robertzaccour | jrib, i don't understand complicated script editing. is there a simple way? | 17:47 |
| jrib | robertzaccour: it's just text files, no scripts. I don't know of another way | 17:47 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: Yep, still happens in Metacity | 17:47 |
| skino | jrib: im getting the following now http://paste.ubuntu.com/411692/ | 17:47 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: what if... you don't use gnome? | 17:48 |
| jrib | skino: but nautilus still loads? | 17:48 |
| skino | jrib: doesnt get past that nautilus-gdu extention | 17:48 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: good question. I'll try installing KDE. | 17:48 |
| skino | ye but as soon as i close Terminal it closes again | 17:48 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: or just use something like fluxbox if you don't want to pull kde in | 17:48 |
| FallenSparrow | annyone understand why windows didnt show in my grub menu | 17:48 |
| skino | and so far this has only solved the problem just temporary sorts it each time im on the PC.... | 17:49 |
| paraplegicpanda | jrib: I suppose I could do that... Fluxbox isn't on the 9.10 disc, is it? | 17:49 |
| robertzaccour | i mean the color behind the applications places system on the left and behind the icons to the right, i don't know how to change the background color | 17:49 |
| switch10_ | FallenSparrow: because you have yet to run sudo update-grub??? | 17:49 |

| switch10_ | sycoso: is it possible that heat is causing the problem? | 18:01 |
| Curly_Q | Chazco how old is the computer and how old is the battery. The battery may be either low or dead. One of the first ways to detect it is by re-booting the computer. If the computer re-boots and the time has changed that is an indication that the battery is low or dead. | 18:01 |

| TEEDEV | geekphreak: i try it but, it same | 18:12 |
| geekphreak | TEEDEV: open terminal plz, lets try something | 18:12 |
| obiwan_ | i know because if it was the bios, it would emit it by the speakers, but conversely, the sound outputs off headphones and it varies depending on how much volume is currently on. When i raise from 0, it's low, and it keeps ascending , so when i'm about 100%, it's quite hard | 18:12 |

| m4jh0l | jrib:knowing that my ip is 192.168.1.66 and the router ip 192.168.1.254 | 18:15 |
| Curly_Q | It is also possible that your sound card is misconfigured via the software. | 18:15 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: did you end up testing kde? | 18:15 |
| BlessJah | paraplegicpanda: try openbox | 18:15 |
| jrib | m4jh0l: afaik this is to be done on the router | 18:15 |
| BlessJah | paraplegicpanda: than u can tell why kde is bad | 18:15 |
| obiwan_ | Curly_Q: i get the sound from my speakers when i'm using the speakrs. when i'm on my headphones, i get the sound from my headphones. I remember when i had a pc tower, the bios sounds were emitted from the inside, not from speakers/headphones. So i think it comes from ubuntu, not the motherboard | 18:16 |
| geekphreak | kde is good :) | 18:16 |

| obiwan_ | Curly_Q: so you know any way to disable that sound? i completely disabled the "ubuntu sounds" in the sound preferences but sitll get that | 18:17 |
| BlessJah | so now u can tell me, how to create video stream, that would be recognised as a webcam, from a movie file | 18:17 |
| jrib | paraplegicpanda: I mean at this point, you just have to take each piece of software that you are running in gnome and eliminate it as the culprit one by one | 18:17 |
| geekphreak | obiwan_: you wana disable theme sound? | 18:18 |
| devsundar | Can you suggest any download manager for ubuntu similar to Freedownload manager | 18:18 |
| TEEDEV | geekphreak ahh! at tomorow ,me is online onmobile. | 18:18 |

| geekphreak | BlessJah: i know vlc can stream it online , but can u se that as webcam, i aint sure :) | 18:18 |
| BlessJah | devsundar: wget is great, but it is CLI, u can try gwget | 18:18 |
| obiwan_ | actually that option is a liar, i also get a sound when login splash spawns, but i got rid of that sound from gnome conf. i searched about this sound too, with no success | 18:18 |

| obiwan_ | hola/hi Guest52322 :P | 18:19 |
| Curly_Q | No problem Obiwan. Just a point in fact not only for you but also for all of those viewing this conversation. The very first thing any good Technician will do is first inspect the physical hardware such as wires and the like. In CISCO classes it is called: "Physical Layer" Which means any possible hardware item. Next as you said Linux is the cause which means that it is another Layer which could be the Application Layer. | 18:19 |
| obiwan_ | yeah geekphreak | 18:20 |
| geekphreak | obiwan_: open sound scheme folder where sound files are, rename the .wav file to .wav.bak | 18:20 |
| obiwan_ | all of them? | 18:20 |
| geekphreak | just rename it to bak, if it wont find the file, it wont play | 18:20 |

| Gene | bobo123, next time you install i would suggest that you choose the partitions manually, have one for system, and a larger one for 'home' and a smaller one for swap, (swap never needs to be more than about 2gb0 | 18:38 |
| jrib | dr3mro: it will expand to ~/. | 18:38 |
| k1llm3kw1k | Hi All | 18:38 |
| thevishy | i use netboot | 18:38 |
| xampp | !ist XXX | 18:38 |
| dr3mro | jrib, SAME "tar -cpzvf home.tgz --exclude=.VirtualBox/ --exclude=.gvfs/ --exclude=backup.tgz --exclude=home.tgz /home/dr3mro/.*" | 18:38 |
| mark44 | mareczek | 18:39 |
| guntbert | xampp: please don't do that in the channel - use /query ubottu | 18:39 |
| bazhang | xampp, stop that please | 18:39 |
| Gene | bobo123, that way if you need to reinstall, or upgrade you will keep all your files and prefferences | 18:39 |
| xampp | my hands are tied | 18:39 |
| thevishy | u download netboot directory from ubuntu server ...copy the ubuntu-installed directory / pxelinux.0 and pxelinux.cfg folders to tftp home directory | 18:39 |
| jrib | dr3mro: I didn't tell you to write "~/.". I said ~/.* will include ~/. which is equal to ~ | 18:39 |
| k1llm3kw1k | has anyone been having any wierd xorg issues with 10.04. On my laptop it goes 8 bit and tiles everywhere | 18:40 |
| dr3mro | jrib, so what if i want to only archive dot files | 18:40 |
| jrib | dr3mro: well zsh does the smart thing. I don't know what the easiest way for you to do that on bash would be | 18:40 |
| thevishy | google,.com | 18:40 |
| trism | dr3mro: if all your . files are at least two characters long, you could try ~/.??* (two so it skips .. too) | 18:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | k1llm3kw1k, reask in lucid channel #ubuntu+1 | 18:41 |
| k1llm3kw1k | oh thanks :) sorry | 18:41 |

| epaphus | load the module | 18:50 |

| PyroPhelia | epaphus, modprobe <moduleName> | 18:50 |

| schiz0id | crucialhoax: hold on have to switch users | 18:52 |
| schiz0id | brb | 18:52 |
| crucialhoax | ok | 18:52 |
| histo | servvs: like right now the webserver resolvs a go daddy domain but I want to install avantfax so I would like example.com/avantfax to only be able to internal users. | 18:53 |
| thevishy | i was using the ip of my lan computer to install via PXE on my laptop ...so source.list is mentioning this IP now I need to revert back to the original | 18:53 |
| thevishy | how do I do that ? | 18:53 |
| PyroPhelia | so does anybody here use ext4 on extremely large raids? | 18:53 |
| jrib | thevishy: system -> administration -> software sources | 18:53 |
| sorin7486 | hey ... got a problem: just installed 9.10 and the network works but I can't get throught the proxy | 18:53 |
| PyroPhelia | yes I know it's only a testing FS but I'm curios | 18:53 |
| thevishy | can I just search replace the IP address 192.168.0.102 with some mirror address or something if yes what exaxtly | 18:53 |
| sorin7486 | everything works fine in windows tho | 18:54 |
| schiz0id_ | ok I'm back | 18:54 |
| thevishy | jnb as i told u no GUI , its a botched system | 18:54 |
| schiz0id_ | trying command now | 18:54 |
| histo | Almsot like another virtualhost but I want to use the same domain name or coudl be like fax.example.com instead of www.example.com but I only want internal ips to get to fax.example.com | 18:54 |
| servvs | histo: then do the .htaccess, and if you wanna spend some time on it, install a cms or make one and have only your login be able to access the stuff you don't want everyone else to access | 18:54 |
| histo | which would show a different page than www | 18:54 |
| jrib | thevishy: do a proper install... if you want to ignore my advice though, use sed | 18:54 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: alright post the driver in use and the product line. | 18:54 |
| PyroPhelia | histo, sounds like you need to create an ipchain. I'm not 100% if that's true, but that's where I would look first | 18:54 |

| PyroPhelia | histo, it's possible. I've just never done it before | 18:56 |
| servvs | histo: so you have the server at home, and the domain is from godaddy right? then in godaddy you can make subdomains for free I think and when you resolve it to your host set it to a different folder with the .htaccess file | 18:56 |

| BloodyChef | crucialhoax: Any solution, i've used a different linux distro before | 19:11 |

| crucialhoax | BloodyChef: Is it only ubuntu that does this? | 19:11 |
| BloodyChef | crucialhoax: Yes | 19:11 |
| schiz0id | mkay what line(s) do I need to change/add? | 19:11 |
| crucialhoax | BloodyChef: Hm. | 19:12 |
| BloodyChef | crucialhoax: Even now, it's just sitting there _ blinking, nothing happening | 19:12 |
| sayanriju | BloodyChef, try checking the cd for errors | 19:12 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: The easiest way is to CTRL + F to find this: power_save_ | 19:12 |
| thevishy | the reason I dont want to reinstall is that this is a ultra old laptop , and it heats up very fast ...so I am lucky it stood the installation this time around | 19:12 |
| BloodyChef | sayanrju: I can't, that option gives the same interface, just the blinking _ | 19:12 |
| tassos | Hi everyone, I need a bit of help compiling emacs.... | 19:12 |
| thevishy | jnb : where do I change that ? and what would be exact address of lucid 1 beta files | 19:12 |
| sayanriju | BloodyChef, duh! :( | 19:12 |
| schiz0id | crucialhoax: "phrase not found" | 19:13 |
| jrib | tassos: do not compile emacs. There :) But really, you shouldn't since emacs is in the repositories. Use APT | 19:13 |
| jrib | thevishy: #ubuntu+1 for lucid support | 19:13 |
| BloodyChef | sayanrju, so that would implythe cd is broken? | 19:13 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: towards the bottom of the file | 19:13 |

| ubottu | discozohan: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Lucid. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. | 19:18 |

| jenue | i need help in connecting my ubuntu host to my virtualbox guest os ubuntu. i can't ping the guest os | 19:20 |
| crucialhoax | does it reject your password everytime? | 19:20 |
| Urda | discozohan: I mean it comes out in what 20 days... | 19:21 |
| StevePutnam | no, it just says "checking" until it times out | 19:21 |
| Urda | StevePutnam: what is the issue? | 19:21 |
| crucialhoax | jenue: If the host is connected to a network then virtual os will have one too. Is the host using a firewall? | 19:21 |
| StevePutnam | Any idea what would make my ubuntu unlock screen say "checking", and I am sure i entered my password correctly, It will timeout about 5 mins later and let me enter my password again?? | 19:21 |
| crucialhoax | and after it times out does it work after that? | 19:22 |
| crucialhoax | your password I am referring to | 19:22 |
| StevePutnam | crucialhoax.. yes | 19:22 |
| jenue | crucialhoax: no | 19:22 |
| blue-frog | jenue, can't ping when using NAT. as designed | 19:22 |
| crucialhoax | StevePutnam: So fails first time, works second time? | 19:22 |
| StevePutnam | curcialhoax, that is correct, and it only does this about once a month. | 19:23 |
| blue-frog | jenue, use hostnetworking if you want to ping. You can use ssh with NAT though or other things | 19:23 |
| schiz0id | crucialhoax: bad news | 19:23 |
| crucialhoax | StevePutnam: Maybe try changing the password? Since it is so infrequent it is hard to tell. | 19:23 |

| HikayuAkira | Sup | 19:51 |
| federico | still, it's a lot of memory | 19:51 |
| schiz0id | crucialhoax: what are those lines? | 19:51 |
| switch10_ | jenda: if so edit /etc/fstab | 19:51 |
| meindian523 | federico, normal, I'm running at 271 megs with Xchat and compiz and tiny stuff | 19:51 |
| bsmith093 | irc.ubuntu.com #ubuntu | 19:51 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel | 19:51 |
| schiz0id | kk hold on | 19:52 |
| jenda | switch10_: I want it mounted when it's plugged in. I had to type "sudo mount /dev/sdb3 /media/disk" | 19:52 |
| schiz0id | next line? | 19:52 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel | 19:52 |
| guntbert | bsmith093: thats where you are talking right now. Do you have an ubuntu support question? | 19:52 |
| Aut0ExeC | sup fellas... anyone know how to use tcpdump? | 19:52 |
| coachj | can someone tell me the difference in Transmission and Transmission-qt bit torrent clients? | 19:52 |
| meindian523 | jenda, are you using Lucid? | 19:52 |
| switch10_ | jenda: yes, so it is being mounted.... and you want to automate that correct? | 19:52 |
| Slart | coachj: transmission-qt is probably a gui for transmission | 19:53 |
| schiz0id | crucialhoax: and the last line? | 19:53 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: options snd-hda-intel model=hp-hdx | 19:53 |
| schiz0id | last line? | 19:53 |
| bsmith093 | yes i do i accidentally deleted my open pgp key pair because lucid crashed anyway its gone is there any way to remove it from the keyservers | 19:53 |
| Slart | !info transmission-qt | coachj | 19:53 |
| ubottu | coachj: transmission-qt (source: transmission): lightweight BitTorrent client (Qt interface). In component universe, is optional. Version 1.75-0ubuntu2.2 (karmic), package size 431 kB, installed size 1132 kB | 19:53 |
| switch10_ | jenda: you need to make an entry for it in /etc/fstab to have it mount on boot. | 19:53 |
| meindian523 | coachj, ....more compatible with KDE I guess | 19:53 |
| coachj | Slart: thks | 19:53 |
| Aut0ExeC | is tcpdump used for only traffic going to and from your pc or remote pc's as well? | 19:54 |
| amos | Aut0ExeC: http://danielmiessler.com/study/tcpdump/ | 19:54 |
| schiz0id | sorry about that | 19:54 |
| coachj | meindian523: which is more comp w/KDE | 19:54 |
| schiz0id | what's the last line? | 19:54 |
| meindian523 | coachj, Qt | 19:54 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: that is all | 19:54 |
| schiz0id | you said three lines | 19:54 |
| coachj | thks just wondering | 19:54 |
| Maranatha | I need some help getting my ethernet card working for a compaq persario v5000 running ubuntu netbook remix 9.10 It tells me device is not ready | 19:54 |
| Marco | if I download the source and build a package with "apt-get source -b package-name" and then install it with "dpkg -i" will it be overwritten if I do an "apt-get upgrade" ? | 19:54 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: I sent 3 lines.. | 19:54 |
| Slart | Aut0ExeC: you could set it to look at all traffic that is "passing" your computer.. if your computer is acting as a router you'll be able to see traffic going through it | 19:54 |
| guntbert | bsmith093: does that help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto#Revoking%20a%20keypair | 19:54 |
| schiz0id | no you sent snd-card-0 | 19:54 |
| schiz0id | and snd-slot-0 | 19:55 |
| Aut0ExeC | Slart: no no router... | 19:55 |
| Pici | Marco: Only if something with a newer version is offered. | 19:55 |
| schiz0id | what was the third one? | 19:55 |
| Aut0ExeC | Slart: just my pc | 19:55 |
| Losha | Aut0ExeC: tcpdump will report on any/all packets it sees on the network segment you're on, if you configure it correctly... | 19:55 |
| crucialhoax | schiz0id: options snd-hda-intel model=hp-hdx | 19:55 |
| Marco | Pici, is there a way for me to keep a package that I installed? | 19:55 |
| Slart | Aut0ExeC: then you'll only see traffic going to and from your computer (unless you've got some weird network setup) | 19:55 |
| bsmith093 | i never created a revocation certificate (whatever that means) but i also never actually used this keypair anyway so is it ok to just leave it on ther server | 19:55 |
| Aut0ExeC | Slart: ok Losha told me something else | 19:55 |
| Pici | Marco: Take a look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 19:55 |
| jenda | switch10_: actually, after mounting it once, unmounting, unplugging and plugging in, it mounts automatically again. | 19:55 |
| Slart | Aut0ExeC: not really | 19:56 |
| Marco | Pici, thanks | 19:56 |
| jenda | so problem solved, I guess | 19:56 |
| Aut0ExeC | Slart: so basically only traffic going to and from my pc correct? | 19:56 |
| Slart | Aut0ExeC: probably, yes | 19:56 |
| Aut0ExeC | Slart: cuz i'm seeing traffic going to and from other computers on the network | 19:56 |
| Aut0ExeC | Slart: weird | 19:56 |
| realubot | How do I know what ip addresses a web hosting company use? | 19:56 |

| crucialhoax | alright | 19:57 |
| Aut0ExeC | realubot: look on their website? | 19:57 |
| Losha | Aut0ExeC: Slart and I are saying the same thing. You can see any packets on the bit of wire you're connected to. It just depends who else is on that segment... | 19:57 |

| switch10_ | realubot: ping the machine using their domain name, it will give you external IP | 19:58 |

| Vince | I installed nautilus and it keeps crashing my gnome desktop (notebook-remix) | 20:01 |
| Losha | Aut0ExeC: sorry, not trying to be obscure, it depends on the details of the switch but it will probably work. Best is to just try it... | 20:01 |
| Aut0ExeC | Losha: ok thanx | 20:01 |

I'm building a small server with a compact flash main OS drive, and two hard drives in a RAID1, and I want to make sure they spin down when not used. What can I put on these? Can I put the /home dir on them? Or will that make sure that they are always spinning? | 20:01 |
| Vince | so I uninstalled nautlius | 20:01 |
| Aut0ExeC | Losha: switched are smart and dont broadcast traffic to the whole network segment... but hubs do.. | 20:02 |
| Vince | and guess what my whole desktop crashed | 20:02 |
| Aut0ExeC | Losha: but thanks i'll try | 20:02 |
| Vince | then i did apt-get install ubuntu-desktop the problem was fixed | 20:02 |

| Alan502 | civpro, ask? | 21:20 |
| jim__ | so the only way for me to have this system connect to my wifi automatically is to buy and install windows 7? How depressing I thought by buying a system with linux on it would make everything easy. I wonder how many other dell customers have had to do this :( | 21:20 |

| civpro | cant login to mysql db | 21:20 |
| MrKeuner | why doesn't dell or hp sell ubuntu preloaded systems? | 21:21 |

| crucialhoax | Turbolinux: Hit Ctrl + H in your home folder | 21:21 |
| Myrtti | !webmin | civpro | 21:21 |
| ubottu | civpro: 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. | 21:21 |

| civpro | i think its a bind issue | 21:21 |

| crucialhoax | C_Tek: you removed your user from sudo | 21:34 |
| civpro | how can it be i followed the reset password to the t and it updated successfully | 21:34 |
| sp | Sivam: if you just want to install onto an USB device, go head, do an install and select the USB device when prompted for the install target | 21:35 |

| OsvaldAnteros | bcj: i have a real old 3d studio max cd that i tried to install on xp but Max didn't work | 21:40 |
| RyanP | OsvaldAnteros: It's possible. Use gparted or something from a bootable CD and resize your Linux partition. As t3chkommie said, Windows will try to wipe grub out, so you'll need to be able to recreate it. | 21:40 |
| t3chkommie | Osvaldanteos: if you can install everything first. then ubuntu... make it easier.. if not.. youre going to have to point youre grup to your partitions... im no good at that :( | 21:40 |

| OsvaldAnteros | yes ive heardof wine and cedega and virtual box even, but LAGGING is akin to murder in starcraft | 21:42 |
| dhendrix | OsvaldAnteros: In my experience, Starcraft runs very well under Wine (no lag at all) | 21:43 |
| histo | OsvaldAnteros: I think you'd be suprised to see that there isn't much lag in wine if any | 21:43 |
| OsvaldAnteros | hmmm....alright ill try wine but i have a feeling ill be back | 21:44 |
| dhendrix | OsvaldAnteros: I've also done warcraft 3 and a few first person shooters in Wine. Competitively. Lag was not an issue. | 21:44 |

| elknof1 | hi everyone, Im trying to set up a double boot system on a aspire one zg5 (aoa150), ive already installed windows xp sp3 and ubuntu 9.10, since i want to share files between partitions i used ext2ifs but when i tryed to acces the partition it showed me an error something that the partition has no format and asks me if i want to format it, of course i dont. Then idownloaded the utility from the page and it told me thet the partition was made with and inod | 22:20 |
| crucialhoax | SeekTruth: there was something that spiked a huge mem usage then | 22:21 |
| crucialhoax | minimec: Ubuntu-Mono-Dark | 22:21 |
| sp | elknof1: IIRC ext2ifs is lacking ext4 support... now if you formatted an Ubuntu partition as ext4 that won't work out | 22:21 |
| holmser | I am trying to set up file sharing between my laptop and desktop computer. I have the file shared, I can see my desktop computer from the "network" window, but it keeps saying "failed to retrieve share list from server" when I try to browse it | 22:22 |
| holmser | any ideas? | 22:22 |
| elknof1 | sp: no i didnt formatted as ext4, i did as ext3 | 22:22 |
| n00b09 | ** can you install ubuntu 64-bit on 64-bit intel cpus? | 22:22 |
| deliverance | im back ha ha | 22:22 |
| jpds | n00b09: Yes. | 22:22 |
| holmser | yeah n00b09 | 22:22 |
| n00b09 | danks | 22:22 |
| deliverance | maco?? | 22:23 |
| SeekTruth | im back. how can I tell if the Nvidia driver is acvitated properly? | 22:23 |
| crucialhoax | SeekTruth: lsmod | 22:23 |
| maco | deliverance: whats up? | 22:23 |
| sp | elknof1: and you used the tool coming with ext2ifs to mount the ext partition? | 22:23 |
| SeekTruth | crucialhoax: this part? agpgart 34988 2 nvidia,intel_agp | 22:23 |
| deliverance | ha ha hey..... so i tried to join #backtrack-linux but wouldnt even let me connect and said i was banned?? | 22:24 |
| elknof1 | brb out to eat... | 22:24 |
| SeekTruth | so is that what everyone does when Ubuntu locks up? they press ctrl+alt+backspace? | 22:24 |
| elknof1 | sp: yes | 22:24 |
| maco | SeekTruth: for most of us it doesnt happen | 22:24 |
| Slart | SeekTruth: REISUB is also useful | 22:24 |
| SeekTruth | maco: i think Nvidia is running | 22:24 |
| sp | elknof1: sounds weird... is ubuntu in hibernate by any chance? | 22:24 |
| sloopy | ubuntu locks up? | 22:24 |
| SeekTruth | Slart: whats that? | 22:24 |
| crucialhoax | SeekTruth: I use ctrl+alt+f1 then kill the program | 22:25 |
| maco | sloopy: if you have crappy drivers, sure | 22:25 |
| elknof1 | sp: never | 22:25 |
| guntbert | SeekTruth: no - my system doesn't lock up - I cannot remember such case within a year | 22:25 |
| SeekTruth | sloopy: yes. i was typing a message on a web forum and the whole thing just locked up :( Had to do a hard reboot | 22:25 |
| bigtom21485 | anybody know what the best file sharing program is? | 22:25 |
| elknof1 | sp: the solution is to format my ext3 partition with and inode size of 128 instead of 256... | 22:25 |
| maco | my last lockup was probably 18mo ago. my graphics driver was very very new and not very tested at the time | 22:25 |
| elknof1 | but dont know how.. | 22:25 |
| sp | elknof1: sounds weird... but to be honest I haven't played with ext2ifs in a while... could be a lot of things causing those problems for you | 22:25 |
| deliverance | how can i address my chat to a specific person? | 22:25 |
| maco | deliverance: say their name | 22:25 |
| Slart | SeekTruth: it's a .. well.. some kind of low-level thing.. you press alt+printscr and then R E I S U B .. each one does something specific,.. clears caches.. spins down hard drives etc.. the last one reboots the system | 22:26 |
| SeekTruth | crucialhoax: when I did ctrl+alt+f1 all i saw was a black screen | 22:26 |
| maco | deliverance: you can type the first couple characters then hit tab | 22:26 |
| maco | SeekTruth: with a login prompt? | 22:26 |
| meowbuntu | hi I have a serious error. after installing chromium browser .deb file. every time I open terminal it runs gedit instead. i have tryed to reinstall gnome terminal thru synaptic but that gives errors. i have also run fsck that will not fix the problem. any ideas would be appricated. | 22:26 |
| micko | hi guys, I have bought a Dell 1564 with i3 and I installed Ubuntu 9.04 and I have shitty graphics :( how to solve that please? | 22:26 |
| sloopy | maco, SeekTruth my question was rehtorical... | 22:26 |
| SeekTruth | maco: yes | 22:26 |
| maco | Slart: its alt+sysrq | 22:26 |
| deliverance | maco, like this | 22:26 |
| maco | Slart: that is *not* always the same as alt+printscr | 22:26 |
| elknof1 | sp: ive done some research and is something with mkfs -I 128 but just dont know how to finish the line since my /dev/sda7 is the partition in question.... | 22:26 |
| maco | deliverance: yep | 22:26 |
| SeekTruth | sloopy: well u got an answer anyway :) | 22:26 |
| Slart | SeekTruth: if you google for REISUB you'll get better info than I can give you.. it's basically just slightly better than just power-cycling it | 22:26 |
| micko | I tried Lucid beta and the graphics problem is solved, but it's highly unstable :( | 22:26 |
| crucialhoax | SeekTruth: Exactly. then you log in to the computer, then use ps -A | grep <open program name> then when you find it, killall <program name> | 22:26 |
| deliverance | maco: hmm i see i thought there was an automated way of doing it ha ha | 22:27 |
| maco | Slart: my sysrq and prtsc are next to each other. sysrq is fn+del | 22:27 |
| sp | elknof1: elknof1 you are aware of the fact that using that command will delete everything off that partition, right? | 22:27 |
| SeekTruth | crucialhoax: sounds complicated. i think ill just do a reboot :P | 22:27 |
| deliverance | maco: so did you see my question about the channel? | 22:27 |
| maco | deliverance: tab completion is the most automated that i know of | 22:27 |
| Slart | SeekTruth: as maco said.. it's the SysRq key... on my keyboard it is on the same key as printscreen.. you'll have to check your keyboard | 22:27 |
| maco | deliverance: um no.. i saw we sent you to #backtrack-linux and you left and now youre back and i dont know why | 22:27 |
| crucialhoax | SeekTruth: Actually it is not. And its easier on the Hard drive | 22:27 |
| sp | elknof1: however, if you do not need any other options mke2fs -I xxx /dev/sdXY should do the trick | 22:27 |
| SeekTruth | now that I have Nvida drivers instaled. what can I do to take advantage of it? :) | 22:27 |
| sp | elknof1: if you are unsure about the options have a look at man mke2fs | 22:28 |
| deliverance | maco: i tried joining it but i didnt even connect and it said i was banned :( | 22:28 |
| micko | anyone please? | 22:28 |

| sp | elknof1: oh, and using mkfs.ext3 might be a better idea :) | 22:28 |
| meowbuntu | hi I have a serious error. after installing chromium browser .deb file. every time I open terminal it runs gedit instead. i have tryed to reinstall gnome terminal thru synaptic but that gives errors. i have also run fsck that will not fix the problem. any ideas would be appricated. | 22:28 |
| minimec | micko: tell me the results | 22:28 |
| orion_X11 | SeekTruth, Install compiz-fusion for example | 22:28 |
| maco | SeekTruth: the REISUB thing lets your system properly sync the disk so you dont corrupt your filesystem. you know how you were always told "dont just turn it off, shut down, else youll screw up the hard drive?" REISUB is a manual shut down | 22:28 |
| SeekTruth | actually now I know my Nvidia drivers are installed because now windows have some sort of special effects when I open and close.. how I stop that? :P | 22:29 |
| micko | minimec: dude the graphic card is Intel which is integrated in the CPU | 22:29 |
| SeekTruth | maco: ok | 22:29 |
| Slart | !ccsm | SeekTruth | 22:29 |

| minimec | micko: Ok. Are you running 9.10? | 22:29 |
| micko | minimec: this is a common problem among people :) | 22:29 |
| maco | meowbuntu: can you go to a ctrl+alt+f1 terminal and type "less /usr/share/applications/gnome-terminal.desktop" and check it doesnt say gedit anywhere in there? (i think thas the right path | 22:29 |
| micko | minimec: 9.04 | 22:29 |
| deliverance | who are the mods in here? | 22:30 |
| maco | micko: by the way, dont say swear words | 22:31 |
| maco | deliverance: there are probably a dozen or so, why? | 22:31 |
| Slart | deliverance: you can check in #ubuntu-ops if you want to speak to them | 22:31 |
| randomusr_ | hey all, is brasero capable of burning a bootable dvd image? | 22:31 |
| Slart | randomusr_: yes | 22:31 |
| micko | maco: swear words?! | 22:31 |
| minimec | micko: What should I say... Upgrade to 9.10 or wait for the 10.04 These distributions support kms (kernel mode settings) for your card. | 22:31 |
| maco | micko: you used the S word up there ^ i think | 22:31 |
| maco | deliverance: #ubuntu ops cant help you with getting unbanned from the backtrack channel | 22:31 |
| micko | minimec: I tried 9.10 but it doesn't work either! | 22:31 |
| randomusr_ | Slart, I just burned the image and it's not bootable.... just a file | 22:31 |
| maco | deliverance: these channels are totally unrelated | 22:32 |
| meowbuntu | maco hold on i need to right that down | 22:32 |
| micko | minimec: tried Lucid and it solves the problem, but it's NOT stable at all :( | 22:32 |
| Slart | randomusr_: then you probably burned it as a data disc.. you need some kind of "burn image" option.. it's in there somewhere | 22:32 |
| maco | meowbuntu: dont forget you can use tab completion to finish the file name | 22:32 |
| maco | meowbuntu: you know how to get back to X right? hit ctrl+alt+f7 (or a higher number.. meh..it can vary) | 22:32 |
| minimec | micko: wait for lucid. It's probably the best. | 22:32 |
| deliverance | maco: but it was my first time every even trying to connect to that channel i dont know why im automatically banned before i have even tried connecting? doesnt seem right | 22:33 |
| micko | minimec: I need to use my computer!!! :( | 22:33 |
| micko | minimec: I'm a student | 22:33 |
| mosin | hola | 22:33 |
| maco | deliverance: probably someone else had your ip address before and its an old ban | 22:33 |
| mosin | a todos | 22:33 |
| Slart | randomusr_: it's the last button of the 5 you get when you start brasero.. there's Audio project, Data project, Video project, Disc copy and Burn image. | 22:33 |
| mosin | hola | 22:33 |
| maco | deliverance: i'll ask in there | 22:33 |
| deliverance | maco: really? your the best :D | 22:33 |
| randomusr_ | Slart, i see, i just thought the default from a shortcut menu would burn an image | 22:34 |
| Slart | randomusr_: uhm.. I have no idea.. I don't think I've used that shortcut | 22:34 |

| IdleOne | deliverance: *!*root*@* is banned, that is why you can't join that channel | 22:35 |
| minimec | micko: Sorry... I don't know what you mean by shitty graphics. if you have to, modify your /etc/xorg.conf of your 9.04 install and use the basic vesa driver. | 22:35 |
| randomusr_ | oh well | 22:35 |
| randomusr_ | it's working now | 22:35 |
| micko | minimec: some people said that they modified xorg.conf and change vesa to Intel | 22:35 |
| deliverance | IdleOne: ha ha ya it said i shouldnt go into chat as root but i cant figure out how to get an account with non root privilages | 22:35 |
| meowbuntu | maco, it cant find it | 22:35 |
| micko | minimec: but I couldn't find the "vesa" part in that file | 22:36 |
| maco | deliverance: you need to change your ident | 22:36 |
| maco | deliverance: you're currently set to "root" as the name before the @ in your client. they dont allow people who are running as root | 22:36 |
| User_007 | Hello, i have installed the last beta and i want to know how is it so fast after gdm | 22:36 |
| _pg_ | securty/anonymity software (like Tor, PeerGuardian) does anyone have suggestions on other good programs or better places to ask? | 22:36 |
| _pg_ | already tried at #tor- theyre all under the radar ;-) | 22:37 |
| SeekTruth | that website you gave me is not reveleant for me, because nowhere does it say t "Key sequence to kill the X server" | 22:37 |
| deliverance | maco: how do i go about that.. i tried making a account with non root privilages but in the bash prompt it still had a $ after it instead of a # | 22:37 |
| SeekTruth | i cannot enable "Key sequence to kill the X server" because it dont appear in my keyboard layout. Anyone help me enable it? | 22:37 |
| maco | meowbuntu: oh apparently theres no desktop file O_o ok... try "sudo update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator" | 22:38 |
| minimec | micko: yeah... In 9.04 /etc/xorg.conf is still present but 'empty'... There should be some examples in the forums, dealing that problem. | 22:38 |
| maco | deliverance: $ is non-root. # is root | 22:38 |
| Slart | !dontzap | 22:38 |
| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl-Alt-Backspace combination that restarts your X server see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap | 22:38 |
| maco | deliverance: possibly its just a setting in your irc client | 22:38 |
| meowbuntu | maco, actually was my typo. no nothing about gedit there | 22:38 |
| SeekTruth | found it | 22:39 |
| Arch_NME | hi | 22:39 |
| deliverance | maco: ya but i also wanna change it on my os... in backtrack i think its opposite | 22:39 |
| deliverance | cause im pretty sure $ is root and # is non root | 22:39 |
| maco | deliverance: type "whoami" | 22:39 |
| SeekTruth | so now.. when Ubuntu locks up next time,. I just press ctrol+alt+backspace? | 22:39 |
| deliverance | maco: in the prompt?? | 22:39 |
| maco | SeekTruth: yep. if theres a next time | 22:39 |
| maco | deliverance: yeah | 22:39 |
| SeekTruth | maco: :P | 22:39 |
| Arch_NME | does anyone know if there is something like the windows taskman in ubuntu? | 22:39 |

| Slart | Arch_NME: system, administration, system monitor? | 22:40 |
| Arch_NME | slart: is there a hotkey to bring that up? | 22:40 |
| SeekTruth | maco: i need to add a user. if i do that, no matter what he does in his account, it wont affect or infect my main account so my netbanking gets compromised etc? | 22:40 |
| meowbuntu | maco, is ctrl+alt+f1 same as terminal. | 22:40 |
| maco | SeekTruth: right | 22:40 |
| deliverance | maco: it just says the same thing in the prompt | 22:40 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: there probably is.. I don't know what it is though =) | 22:40 |
| SeekTruth | maco: ok cool | 22:40 |
| Arch_NME | hmm.... | 22:40 |
| maco | meowbuntu: its a regular tty terminal. the terminal youre used to is a pretty terminal emulator inside of X | 22:41 |
| Arch_NME | I need hotkey because the issue I'm having is I'm playing team fortress and sometimes it freezes and I need to kill it | 22:41 |
| deliverance | maco: although you were right cause there is a # ha ha.. it says root@bt~# | 22:41 |
| SeekTruth | maco: how do I add a user. the add button is ghosted | 22:41 |
| _pg_ | to run tor on ubuntu, do I need to do anything besides install Vidalia? | 22:41 |
| maco | SeekTruth: is there an unlock button? | 22:41 |
| Arch_NME | but I can't browse through the menu like that to get to that system monitor | 22:41 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: tried ctrl+alt+f1? note! Alt+F7 to get back | 22:41 |
| SeekTruth | maco: no | 22:41 |
| Arch_NME | slart: that brings you to the terminal correct? | 22:41 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: that will get you a TTY.. you can login and run something like top/htop or such | 22:42 |
| meowbuntu | maco, ok whats the command to see full app name again | 22:42 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: yup | 22:42 |
| SeekTruth | maco: ahh it says "click to make changes" | 22:42 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: or write things like "pkill teamfortress" or whatever the process name is | 22:42 |
| Arch_NME | top/thop???? | 22:42 |
| * meowbuntu its great to have helpful ppl like maco | 22:42 | |
| maco | SeekTruth: ive been using kubuntu for over a year so anything that changed in ubuntu since then i wont know about (the button *used to* say "unlock") | 22:42 |
| Arch_NME | it's running through wine | 22:42 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: top lists running processes, htop does the same thing.. but with colours... and more bling bling | 22:42 |
| deliverance | maco is pretty sick ill admit ha ha | 22:42 |
| Losha | _pg_: I used this the one time I used tor: http://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | 22:42 |
| maco | meowbuntu: thanks :) | 22:43 |
| Arch_NME | but I think the process would be like hl2.exe | 22:43 |
| maco | meowbuntu: do you mean "ps -ef"? | 22:43 |
| Arch_NME | oh I see | 22:43 |
| User_007 | Hello, i have installed the last beta and i want to know how is it so fast after gdm. Does anyone know? | 22:43 |

| maco | meowbuntu: or do you mean a way to click on a program and see what caused it? in that case "xprop" | 22:43 |
| Arch_NME | so go to the terminal run top the use kill "processname" | 22:43 |
| _pg_ | Losha: Why only one time? lol thanks, I guess I want to know the diference btw the vidalia in add/rmove software vs that deb | 22:43 |
| deliverance | maco: so its still root ill just change it on irc i guess | 22:43 |
| SeekTruth | maco: so you are not a ubuntu developer for gnome, only for KDE? | 22:43 |
| maco | SeekTruth: right | 22:44 |
| The_Serpent | can anyone assist me with a hard drive question? | 22:44 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: well.. running top is just to see what processes is running.. perhaps find the name of the one that is misbehaving | 22:44 |
| SeekTruth | The_Serpent: believe so | 22:44 |
| maco | deliverance: its not a good idea to connect to irc as root though. not a good security policy | 22:44 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: you don't have to run top if you don't want to .. if you already know what the process is called, for example | 22:44 |
| Losha | _pg_: because tor was so slow I basically stopped using it .... | 22:44 |
| Arch_NME | slart: yeah I think I got it | 22:44 |
| SeekTruth | Losha: what u use instead of tor? | 22:44 |
| Arch_NME | I don't know the process name | 22:44 |
| The_Serpent | when i installed ubuntu i only gave it 17gb to use. how do i increase this size? | 22:44 |
| Slart | Arch_NME: and remember.. alt+f7 to get back | 22:44 |
| SeekTruth | The_Serpent: not possible | 22:44 |
| Arch_NME | got it | 22:45 |

| meowbuntu | maco, not exactly but what does xprop do | 22:45 |
| maco | meowbuntu: tells you all the properties of a window | 22:45 |

| === jay is now known as Guest50610 | ||
| Alan502 | Sia--, yes, i've tried all the input channels | 23:49 |
| Gadwil | Alan502, Try opening Audacity when it is the only program that can access the microphone, sometimes other programs interfere. | 23:49 |
| Alan502 | but still none of them lets me get clear voice :( | 23:49 |
| Gadwil | What does it give you besides a "Clear voice"? | 23:49 |

| joyfulgirl | I've been googling a bit, but so far nothing's helped (the wl driver was already unloaded, she's rebooted, installing aircrack-ng has produced no change...) | 23:53 |
| jbobsully11 | I'm dual booting w/Windows | 23:53 |

| jbobsully11 | at the first menu to select an operating system, it has 2 versions (I forget what they are exactly) and Windows | 23:54 |
| Gadwil | jbobsully11, Install the "startup-manager" package (w/o quotes) and tell it to only show 1, also set it to show a recovery, just in case you need it. I wouldn't remove the older kernels. | 23:54 |
| ironfoot495 | Sia--: I used fsck to restore my ubuntu 9.10 server. I'm at the login but it doesn't let me see the desktop is ther a way? | 23:54 |
