[00:43] * meowbuntu wonders y decker is like that [00:44] I used to USB startup disk creator to make a 10.04 beta 2 usb bootable drive. It's taking about 45-60 minutes to actually boot to where I can start the install. Is that a know issue? [00:44] H2O: yeah...but he's on dialup and was too lazy to try.... [00:44] bsharitt: tried using unetbootin? [00:44] !lucid | bsharitt [00:44] bsharitt: 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 [00:44] decker mind your own bisunes. [00:45] I have read the dock but 'kernel' alone doesnt work it need something with it [00:45] Lucid Lynx is a pretty sick name [00:45] * meowbuntu loves decker [00:45] does anyone remember what the linux package is called that allowed you to move your mouse from a linux monitor off to the left and it would appear on a windows controlled monitor? [00:45] i agree ;) [00:45] ? [00:46] H2O: A. google isn't perfect. B. I used to be a newb so I get it. long as they don't hit and run with the questions or repeat them every 5 seconds it's cool by me. C. I like helping the newbs out once and again. hence my reason for being here. [00:46] wine? ;) [00:46] decker: :) good point [00:46] meowbuntu: eh, I still hate your guts. but yeah, I shouldn't be a jerkaholic. but too late. fine. [00:46] i like to help too...as long as i can [00:47] heh [00:48] decker, y hate me i done nothing to you [00:48] cam_: doesn't sound like one app so much as having something like vmware or the like running on some other desktop [00:48] meowbuntu: your memory is shorter than mine. forget it. you're my pal. forever and always. let's get a beer. [00:49] lol ;) [00:49] can anyone help me get out of full screen vnc viewer? [00:49] tehbaut: move your mouse to the middle top... [00:49] esc key? [00:49] theBruno: ctrl-alt-esc off the top of my head? [00:49] hey all, quick question.. is there a way to set X11 to re-size a output to a specific resolution.. for example my netbook has a 1024x600 but i would like x to give me a higher resolution but scale the output to 1024x600 ... is this possible? [00:50] mrwes: nope, tried it [00:50] tehbaut, ctrl + F [00:50] cannot find documentation on it anywhere [00:50] i need to enable identd [00:50] can someone help me [00:51] mrwes: nope, that triggers find in my remote machine's browser [00:51] Disk1of5: course. or at least how it always used to be. you kinda scroll around and the whole desktop would more [00:51] decker: Hi! ... its not vmware, I used it a few years ago, its on the tip of my tongue... linux nams for apps can be a little bizzare! [00:51] virtualbox ? [00:51] decker, 1536x900 X11 would scale down to 1024x600 just causing thing to be small.. [00:51] qemu? [00:52] remove error soft from applications>windows applications [00:52] remove error soft from applications>windows applications [00:52] tehbaut, documentation says ESC key [00:52] remove error soft from applications>windows applications [00:52] why doesn't findsmb see my roomates Win laptop? [00:52] mickster04: ah I missed your message there [00:52] decker, thats 1024x600 * 1.5 keeping the output aspec [00:52] http://wiki.videolan.org/QtHotkeys [00:52] that's the ticket, thanks :) [00:52] Disk1of5: eh, some things always confused me. linux sound and X. but yeah, used to be possible [00:52] <_stryk3r> Okay so, I've been having problems with my wifi. It drops once and a while and the speed is nowhere near what it should be. How can I check for problems? (yes i have lucid) [00:53] decker: found it ...just came to me ... been searching for hours http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ [00:53] i've got a question... why does conky on ubuntu startup show big fonts...until i open the config file and save it again??? then the font size is normal again... weird.. anyone? [00:53] mrwes: I just needed to move the mouse to the top center for a little menu to drop down :) [00:53] tehbaut, ahh yah :) [00:53] cam_: regardless, some virtualization app and switching to it are two seperate things [00:54] ert: you're lost. This is #ubuntu, it can't help you with windows problems. [00:54] is anyone familiar with getting wireless to work on lenovo thinkpad t400? [00:55] (well, perhaps they'll help you install ubuntu, but I'm assuming that's not the kind of answer you're after) [00:55] yes it is ubuntu but vine problem windows [00:55] Hello. I want to know If an Ubuntu server installation is like a Desktop one but with less things. [00:55] marienz: might be crossover [00:55] ahh [00:55] ert: is there anything interesting installed in your wine install? [00:55] budlust: sure. run network manager and an up to date kernel. about as good as it gets I say [00:56] Can someone help me to enable identd? [00:56] like what [00:56] Salva1: a server installation is for setting up a server [00:56] it's not for desktop use [00:56] !server [00:56] Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 8.04. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ and https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/index.html - Use the #ubuntu-server channel for support [00:56] ert: any software in the wine "c:" drive, or anything interesting in applications -> windows applications? [00:56] !ident [00:56] hell0: is that a serious question? install xinetd, edit a bit of junk, restart xinetd, done. what the flip you need identd for though? [00:56] ert: because if you really can't find a better solution you could just remove your ~/.wine and reinstall your windows apps. [00:57] ert: (don't do that yet, of course, there may be a friendlier solution) [00:57] !xftfont [00:57] ;) [00:57] tried oidentd pident [00:57] nobody got a solution??? [00:57] comodo in windows ,but broken doesnt work,want to delete gives error [00:57] Is there some kind of base install, then? [00:57] tiziazrou: you have a problem [00:57] decker: I never mentioned you switched to it. you just move your mouse of the the monitor that has Linux on it and it appears on the the other box which maybe windows or Mac ... it uses magic ! [00:58] Without even X.org. [00:58] Salva1 there is yes [00:58] hell0: gah. there are always multiple alternatives. a curse and a blessing. but xinetd is standard. [00:58] ? [00:58] How can I do it? [00:58] Salva1: it's called a CLI installation [00:58] but then you'll have to compile everything yourself i thinks [00:58] i cant find,have been using this since yesterday [00:58] I mean, to not install a GUI. [00:58] think [00:58] Salva1: use the server install disc [00:59] decker, it's installed [00:59] It is what I am doing. [00:59] you want a system with no desktop enviroment? [00:59] install gentoo ;9 [00:59] But some says it is specifically for server usage. [00:59] ;) [01:00] I want an ubuntu base system. [01:00] Salva1: well yes but you can use the server install as your main desktop if you like [01:00] Like Debian allows. [01:00] Salva1: get a minimal system [01:00] !ubuntu minimal [01:00] !minimal > Salva1 [01:00] Salva1, please see my private message [01:00] IdleOne: cheers [01:00] What´s a good partition size for Ubuntu (not including swap space)? Plan is to have /boot /home and everything else in this same partition [01:00] Salva1: ubuntu is debian. learn the ropes jerko [01:00] Well, Thanks. [01:00] or stop trolling' [01:00] DanDare: the more, the better [01:00] ubuntu is not debian [01:00] decker: be polite please [01:01] !debian | decker [01:01] decker: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! [01:01] IdleOne: too late [01:01] way too late [01:01] !guidelines > decker [01:01] decker, please see my private message [01:01] is base on debian but is different [01:01] H2O, i know... but it´s a dual boot system and need plan the HDD [01:01] how much you want to give it max? [01:01] remove error soft from applications>windows applications [01:02] i'd say 10Gb should be enough? if you plan not to store anything big in it [01:02] no ident responde [01:02] s [01:02] ha, christ. relax. or kick me now. my style aint going to change much. ask my bud meowbuntu [01:02] H2O, 2GB? j/k, i really dont know, i need the min space to have the common apps for general use, and GIMP an OpenOffice. Do you think 15Gb it´s ok ? [01:02] harnf dernf jerb [01:03] decker: your style is not the problem, it is your attitude. please adjust it to what is acceptable in Ubuntu irc channels [01:03] ProfessorBacon: YES [01:03] DanDare: i told you...10 gb is more than enough [01:03] H2O, nice.. not anything big in it.. so i think i will go for 15Gb [01:03] nice [01:03] 10GB so [01:03] DanDare: i have a 6 gig ubuntu partition [01:03] 32gb is the minimum for an os [01:03] chornf! [01:03] DanDare ok than make 15 :) [01:03] tiziazrou: rubbish [01:03] if you can [01:03] IdleOne: semantics [01:03] tiziazrou: ??? [01:03] H2O, many thanks [01:03] tiziazrou: really? [01:03] DanDare: ;) np [01:04] nobody answer me so I help people [01:04] 800Mb is the minimum for an OS [01:04] ouch, i mean, 50Mn [01:04] 8Mb maybe? :p [01:04] depends on the os ;) [01:04] DanDare: puppy linux is 50 [01:04] 120Mn sounds ok for an OS [01:04] im running 9.10 in Gnome using Network on my own box, my wpa password was pretty crazy and I lost it, the network is connected to automatically when I click it. I want to connect my iphone now after I reinstalled the OS but don't have the key, is there a way I can recover it ? [01:05] Coded1_: if you don't have a lot of devices, why not just set a new key? [01:05] grub installation will ruin windows7 boot capability ? [01:05] Coded1_, change the wireless password on your router? [01:05] Coded1_: right-click network manager icon>edit wireless settings>networkSSID>security>show password [01:06] DanDare: replace it? [01:06] mickster04, ty [01:06] mickster04, yeah? it will replace win7 bootloader ? [01:06] or they reside in different sectors ? [01:06] DanDare: yes grub will replace the windows boot loader [01:06] DanDare: i think so, or chain load to it [01:06] Coded1_: you can follow mickster04 advice and then log in to your router management page and change the password to something more easy perhaps? ;) [01:06] for a recent Ubuntu/Windows install, you need 4GB for system files plus at least 5GB for user filed [01:07] files* [01:07] ok... so how it´s the painless way to get a dualboot this way ? [01:07] DanDare: grub will offer the choice of which OS you want to boot [01:07] just installing Ubuntu thing goes OK? I know it´s ok when the other is WinXP but not sure about win7 [01:07] DanDare: install grub, go into ubuntu and run sudo updat-grub from terminal [01:08] DanDare: first make 1 partition with winXp disk and install it on [01:08] DanDare: no problem [01:08] DanDare: and then make the linux partitions with the remaining space [01:08] does anyone know of a non outdated rapidshare command line downloader? [01:08] allright, let´s try all of this [01:08] if i want to back up my encryption keys can i just backup the .gnupg folder in my home folder or is there something special i have to do [01:08] DanDare: then linux is installed grub loader will automaticaly find the XP entry as well and it will let you choose what OS you want to boot [01:09] hi, how to change tty keyborad layout? there's some console command for it? [01:09] ive never heard of a cli rapidshare dloader [01:09] rdown for firefox is pretty good [01:09] or jdownloader [01:09] which is java [01:10] DanDare: if you do it the other way around...windows will overwright grub and you won't be able to boot in linux untill you reinstall and configure grub [01:10] install windows then linux [01:10] thats much easier [01:10] yes, that's what i'm saying.... [01:10] bsmith093: i already have one rapidshare going on this computer, i would like one on my headless server as well [01:10] do u have a premuim account [01:10] wasutton3: what's stopping you? [01:10] if not it wont work for the same ip [01:11] decker, i dont get it mate [01:11] no premium account. but the server is in another state. mickster04: the lack of a gui means i need a cli interface [01:11] and could someone please answer my encryption question please [01:11] ubuntu keeps randomly logging me out === ricardo is now known as fragata [01:11] !patience | bsmith093 [01:11] bsmith093: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.

[01:13] bsmith093, you seem quite valuable here [01:13] where [01:13] haha not really im a talented noob [01:13] wasutton3: : you can install xserver onto the server...

[01:33] mickster04 but the whole drive? and do you think ubuntu can't see my xp OS becuase it's on a raid? [01:33] mickster04: oh ... i had heard about it ... not sure, didnt realise it was Xbox only ... I'm a PS3 guy mayself ... thanks for putting me straight [01:33] darkzenlord: window cant see the whole drive, same on my pc, but ubuntu can read ntfs [01:34] cam_: is ok, i have developed with it before, and it isnt bad === michaelcarr is now known as Strife89 [01:36] ok === cpr__ is now known as cpr [01:36] #ubuntu+1 doesnt have anyone alive or awake atm.. anywhere else i can look for assistance? === cpr is now known as cpr_ === cpr_ is now known as cpr__ [01:36] darkzenlord: ta [01:37] darkzenlord: so tell me what doesnt matter etc? [01:37] even though I can not see the drive in windows, why would my system not prompt me for duel boot? [01:38] darkzenlord: cos windows cant read the drive, nor can its boot loadr, grub works with both windows AND linux so use that [01:38] ok, that makes sense, so how do I set up grub to see all my drives and prompt? that would be the question right? [01:39] darkzenlord: you have to install it (if you install ubuntu last it works by itself) [01:39] see I did install last, thing is my XP OS is on a RAID 0 [01:39] Hi everyone, got an odd problem with WINE where it tries to start up my program, but the GUI never actually comes up. [01:39] Hello everyone, I'm back again with a little more frustration. I used to play FFXI through Ubuntu via Wine on the regular. After a recent (?) update, whenever I go to login PlayOnline gives me a black screen with the elevator music. I've been messing around with it for the last couple hours... Anyone have FFXI working in Ubuntu Karmic? [01:39] I did not load any drivers for ubuntu [01:39] darkzenlord: does grub show the ubuntu set up? [01:40] xpdarkzenlord: and does it boot e [01:40] cp [01:40] xp** [01:41] I restarted twice and didn't even get a prompt for grub or ubuntu, I am not even sure how to get into ubuntu at this point [01:41] anyone know where i can find help with 10.04 not booting? [01:41] darkzenlord: well reinstall ubuntu, im not sure about how the raid will effect hting [01:41] things [01:41] tgp1994: Have you manually set a desktop size in wine config? [01:41] No one here has a working version of FFXI in Ubuntu Karmic? [01:41] BlkDrgn: /join #ubuntu+1 [01:41] cam_: No, and I'll brb. [01:42] is it common for ubuntu to NOT specify the drive letters and names during install? [01:42] Hello everyone. What is a package for gnome +tools (Nautilus, Ubuntu extras, etc...) -GDM (I dont want GDM to boot) [01:42] darkzenlord: yeah, ubtunu does use drive letters [01:42] darkzenlord: "fix mbr ubuntu grub xp" into google [01:42] no1peanut: good solution...google it:D [01:43] go to console and type "firefox google (stuff)" [01:43] how do i write a script file to control fan speed on startup.. [01:43] what is the procedure [01:44] The_explorer best not ey... [01:44] one more thing, I would really like the second partition on the test drive to be NTFS so I can back up to it, how would I get that back? or does ubuntu take over the disk? [01:44] darkzenlord: you can tell ubuntu how you want it partitioned, you can make as many partitions as physically possible [01:45] darkzenlord: during the install [01:45] Yeah during install I told ubuntu to use the 40Gb partition I set-up, seems like it did, but the 192Gb left over are not showing up either in windows [01:46] I formatted the 40Gb portion in EXT4 [01:46] well you have to format that too:/ windows wont show non formatted partitions (which it concideres ext to be i recon) [01:46] darkzenlord: thats fine [01:46] pythags12: not sure of the exact answer but you might want to try the lmsensors package, this will allow you to atleast read the current fan speed ... and maybe change it [01:47] how do i change the font in my terminal [01:47] also is it safe to use a NTFS partiton for the virtual memory [01:47] or will it zap that too? [01:47] darkzenlord: ? virtual memory? you mean swap? cos that formats as swap , neither ext or ntfs nor fat [01:48] swap file i guess [01:48] ok, glad I didn't select any [01:48] yes swap file [01:48] lol [01:48] darkzenlord: yeah swap will get formatted as swap so it didnt matter [01:48] nobody needs a swap space, ram is cheap [01:48] darkzenlord: Yes, you can use a swap file stored on an ntfs partition. [01:48] whoever was askig about moving the mouse across diffeent computers is asking about http://code.google.com/p/synergy-plus/ [01:49] what is a good music player to install to play my cd's ? [01:49] how do i change the font in my terminal [01:49] g33kergRL: I think you do it in preferences [01:49] font type [01:50] I am trying to copy the files from an old ubuntu system, but it is saying I don't have permissions, how do I do it? [01:50] pythags12: you can use pwmconfig which i think is part of lmsensors package ... if you have an i7 cpu you need sensors 3.1 ... the standard ubuntu package is 3.0.1 and is too old. [01:50] ok, I am getting some good info, so what I am going to do, is re-install ubuntu, I will try to use the whole drive, THEN I can partition and format the desired portion in ubuntu to NTFS for my back=ups? [01:50] rosco there's no option for that [01:50] and you can save a few different profiles (terminal preferences), but I suppose this would vary with the terminal your are using [01:50] i got an ati card Cam [01:50] let me look--I know I've done it [01:51] k [01:51] darkzenlord: yes, remember windows will also see the ntfs partition [01:51] I agree I did not need swap space, I have 6Gb of Ram [01:51] darkzenlord: LOL edfinatly not [01:51] Try "Settings/Edit current profile" [01:51] it's a joke to a 64-bit cpu [01:51] pythags12: ahh so you want to control the graphics card fan? [01:52] yes.. [01:52] it makes sense technically and thats all I need, thanks for the help mick [01:52] darkzenlord: yeah google it an come back again:D [01:52] cam ..i wrote the script..but i dont know how to make executable when i start ubuntu [01:52] mickster04: quicksynergy is an easy way to configure the server [01:52] but trash80, disk space is cheap too [01:52] miked595: i will be using that in future [01:52] just much slower [01:53] y [01:53] and you're right, it never gets used [01:53] I think I will google the whole raid and ubuntu thing, not many tutorials how to dual boot a raid 0 seperate HD rig [01:53] rosco_y: where do you see this Settings option in terminal [01:53] you will need a bunch of ram for the ram disk [01:53] darkzenlord: good luck [01:53] ram disk >>>>>> crappy ssd [01:53] g33kergRL: it's probably terminal specific, there are a number of terminal programs === jz is now known as Guest56996 [01:54] pythags12: righto ... call it from /etc/rc.local after you do a "chmod o+x" on it [01:54] my "Settings" option is on the top-line menu, right next to "Help" [01:54] Hello. Any reason why I can't use LVM as a RAID replacement? [01:54] rosco_y: okay i don't see that one [01:54] so when i start the computer it should come on automatically [01:54] g33kergRL: I'm using "Konsole" [01:54] Ooookkkkk... Upgrading to 10.4 seems to have hung [01:54] aha [01:55] It's stuck on "Setting new software channels )Calculating the changes)" [01:55] rosco_y: aha, so we're talking diff [01:55] andrew__: lucid support in #ubuntu+1 [01:55] g33kergRL: y, apples and oranges and all of that [01:55] pythags12: yes rc.local is run after all the init stuff so yes. (As long as your script has the execute bit set) [01:55] andrew__: which beta are you installing? [01:56] hi, i am trying to configure grub2 to load another linux distro. I edit the files in /etc/grub.d/ then 'update-grub'. I see my additions in 'grub.cfg', but when i reboot the menuentries are not there? Is there a step after 'update-grub' to put the file into the mbr or whatever? [01:56] cam_, thk l'll try that.. [01:56] hi [01:56] i finally got my raid set up correctly, and ubuntu installed. [01:56] http://www.howtoforge.com/install-ubuntu-with-software-raid-10 is the site i used to get it working, in case anyone else needs the info [01:56] anoying .. I cant find any way to get the access rights from one file to another in any easy way [01:56] underdev: as far as I know, you just edit the menu.lst file [01:57] rosco_y: not for the newer versions of ubuntu, unfortunately :) [01:57] underdev with grub2 you should use the startup managet , they are not static files like they were in grub1 [01:57] it uses grub2 [01:57] underdev: oops, excuse me. I'm not going to miss the xorg.conf file either :) [01:58] rosco_y until you need to set up a screen which reqired a custom modeline that is [01:58] ahh ... rtfm .. should have known [01:58] koshari: are you talking about xorg.conf? [01:59] rosco_y tick [01:59] no1peanut: why do you want to do that? [01:59] anyone know what should be done after 'sudo update-grub'? [02:00] koshari: what is "tick"? [02:00] rosco_y: tick-yes [02:00] tik-tok [02:00] its a little brown bug that latches on your skin and sucks blood [02:00] * tatsel runs away [02:00] I have a shared folder on a secondary drive that allows read/write access from the windows machines on the LAN.. however when I create a directory on that drive using Ubuntu the write privileges are not present. SMB config shows writeable=yes browseable=yes & guest ok=yes .. what do I need to do to keep my account from changing the global permissions? [02:01] Scunizi: I just saw an article that might be helful, brb [02:01] you need to tell samba what user to create the folders as [02:02] it should have a user= and group= entry in smb.conf i dont recall [02:02] k.. brb [02:02] it might be uid=/gid= [02:02] im so happy with my raid array lol [02:02] 4 TB RAID 10. 4x2Tb drives [02:03] 7200 RPM SATA [02:03] i have a private apt-mirror server and one of my PC's is getting "W: Failed to fetch http://192.x.x.x/ubuntu/dists/lucid/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch" every once in a while. [02:04] Scunizi: not sure, but this may be helpful: http://www.linux-mag.com/cache/7741/1.html [02:04] Misantropo: i havent done anything like that but id assume its something failed to write the last bytes on the files you put on there [02:05] limpc, thanks [02:07] jrib: I wanted to add some text to the top of a file from the command line and ended up using a tmp file and when I restored that file I wanted it to have the same permissions as the original [02:07] no1peanut: I don't understand the use case [02:07] limpc, solved! the problem was i am also behind a proxy and had the proxy configured for apt. It wasn't needed. Thanks anyway.

[02:12] rosco_y: thanks for the link.. it's a good article but doesn't pertain to SAMBA configuration.. it's a little different there even though the basics are the same.. I can give everyone read/write/execute permissions on a directory but if I create a directory within that directory then nobody else can write to it. [02:13] How do you set firefox to automatically open a website in an email without it popping up a box asking you what to open it with in Ubuntu?

Thanks.. Samba is one thing I have dove into for years and now I find a need.. thus the need breeds questions, reading and knowledge... to later be shared with others.. man that sounds *way* to altruistic [02:22] tatsel, Then what?

[02:23] I have a 1 TB hard drive... i want to sync between my laptop and external hard drive....any suggestions on how to do that .... sry i forgot to mention that the sync should be automatic.... [02:23] If anyone can help me I have an error log. [02:23] tatsel, I'm not a wiz at this [02:23] wizzo50: looks if any configuration matches that behavior [02:23] Scunizi: yeah, you may have to modify the permission values, to tailor that, but you can play with it at lease. [02:23] no rsync i think [02:23] *least [02:24] dos123: were you replying to me? [02:24] wizzo50: hum. Idk then. Sorry :S [02:24] greezmunkey: yea.. I figure 777 will work.. nothing important really going in the folder. [02:24] * tatsel does his best [02:24] Scunizi: sure. [02:24] tatsel, You must be thinking of something different [02:24] greezmunkey: what's the "mask" feature..? I don't really get that. [02:24] i even did go to cd /proc/acpi/video/GFX0/ DD02/brightness [02:25] Ubuntu's gotten to 9.10 and the font rendering still -isn't quite so good- =/ [02:25] roark_: so you're saying you want the external drive to mirror the laptop?

[02:25] Losha: yes [02:25] wizzo50: then I didn't get what you meant [02:25] tatsel, It's when I click on something in a email to open it automatically without it asking what to open it with [02:25] the only command that worked is xgamma -gamma XX [02:25] greezmunkey: sorry gotta run .. bbl [02:26] Losha: actually more than that when I delete somehting on my laptop it shouldn't be deleted on external HDD... since my laptop can store only 200GB but external hdd can store 1 TB.... [02:26] Scunizi: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2003-March/063429.html [02:26] can anyone help me??? please [02:26] roark_: rsync withouth the --delete option [02:26] Hi all! When I try to mail something from the command prompt, I get "sendmail process failed with error code 75". Am I missing a package or something? [02:26] wizzo50: what, for example, a link? [02:26] tatsel, A box appears for me to pick a program to open the file, or picture or etc. with [02:26] Oh [02:27] switch10_: will update work then... if i use rsync without --delete option [02:27] roark_: well rsync would be the first thing that comes to mind. But you should consider doing 'proper' backups to the hard drive instead of just accumulating stuff there with rsync... [02:27] wizzo50: this is about the default mimetype association [02:27] tatsel, and Idon't know what to or where to find it on my drive [02:27] how do i compile stuff in ubuntu? i get no targets specified and no make filefound. stop. on usinghte make command [02:27] my eyes are killing me and i need to change the brightness soon [02:27] no the cloud i think [02:27] wizzo50: what are you trying to open? [02:28] tatsel, It use to not do it until I did an update with the manager and then started to do this [02:28] mickster04: is there a file named 'configure' there? [02:28] roark_: how do you mean update? the update option in rsync? [02:28] Losha: i ran ./configure already seemed to ru fine [02:28] switch10_: updating a text file.... deleting a line and adding a line [02:28] Losha: oh wait... [02:29] mickster04: apparently there's no Makefile. If that's the case, your configure failed... [02:29] switch10_: since we are using without --delete option will the above scenario work (updating a text file.... deleting a line and adding a line) [02:29] dsnyders: does any mail from command line work? [02:29] tatsel, anything, when ever I see something I want to open. I guess it isn't just on emal but also from web pages too [02:29] wizzo50: hum. It's quite floggy to me, I haven't layed hands on an ubuntu OS since months. I know what to do, but I don't remind how [02:29] Losha: how to instlal glib? [02:29] underdev: Can you pastebin your grub.cfg? [02:29] Foggy* [02:29] greezmunkey, I've only tried mail -s test dsnyders@example.com [02:29] Losha: could you tell me what you meant by 'proper backups' ... i was thinking of rsyncing my home folder of my laptop to external hdd [02:30] roark_: with the -u option, it should keep the lines you would have deleted on the source, and update the new lines as well.. [02:30] i am sick of the virtual storage [02:30] @ dsnyders Here is a link to a similar question in the ubuntu forum http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=550287&page=8 [02:30] That should help [02:30] tatsel, so you know what I am talking about now? [02:30] wizzo50: you have to select the default application [02:30] switch10_ : but I want content inside text files to be deleted [02:31] roark_: so add the --delete option.. [02:31] wizzo50: yep, but i dont fully remind how [02:31] dsnyders: issue the same command, but add -v, that should give you more details. [02:31] switch10_ : i think i was not clear , at all, then files get deleted too? [02:31] * tatsel wants his pc... [02:31] tatsel, Why do I have too? Doesn't the computer do it itself [02:31] roark_: yes. [02:31] tatsel, It use to [02:31] wizzo50: usually, it does [02:32] Hi everyone I am having trouble installing the web tools plugin for eclipse on Ubuntu 9.10. I have an error log. Can anyone help me please? [02:32] I'm on the beta, and I just started loosing all my priv's for everything including gnome and nautilus, I can only do things as root in xterm or a tty*.. Any ideas? [02:32] can someone help me change where the terminal's default path is? [02:32] switch10_ : if i delete a movie in my laptop that s because i dont have enough space in my laptop but i dont want that movie to be deleted in my external hdd... however if i am changing lines of code i am pretty sure I want them to be deleted in my external hdd too.....any way to achieve this using rsync...or any syncing mechanism [02:32] roark_: I have not needed to do that, I'm sure it's possible using wildcards for text files only. have a read in man rsync [02:32] greezmunkey, I get no further details than: Can't send mail: sendmail process failed [02:33] roark_: a proper backup means you can restore the state of the laptop *exactly* to how it was at a previous time. With your rsync scheme, you get a muddle of current and deleted files: it's ok for those 'whoops, I didn't mean to delete that file' moments, but it's doesn't support restoring full state... [02:33] tatsel, Like if you put an website address on here for me to go to, and I click on it, the box pops up asking me to select what to open it with [02:33] wizzo50: right click on a file that asks you that, and select properties. Then look in one of the tabs in the dialogg, you should see something like "association" [02:33] Losha: cool got it [02:33] wizzo50: oh, an URL? [02:34] wizzo50: select firefox as default [02:34] tatsel, Yea or anything. [02:34] mickster04: apt-cache search glib | egrep -i dev ...Then you have to install the right package... [02:34] roark_: or run a seperate rsync for different dirs. I have cron jobs running rsync that have many different options, for different dirs. [02:34] Losha: now i need to find an install ncurses! [02:34] wizzo50: looks like you have to do the association again. [02:34] @dsnyders seriously you should check the forums.

It can take ages to get all the dependencies. What are you trying to build... [02:35] switch10_ : i mean not easy to maintain [02:35] switch10_ : but since it is my personal laptop this should be fine... [02:35] tatsel, How ypu do that? [02:35] Losha: irssi, want .15 rather than .14 just because :/ think ill have to give up;/ [02:35] wizzo50: applications are un /usr/bin [02:36] switch10_ : do you use rsync for simiar purposes... [02:36] wizzo50: huh. too far away for me .. [02:36] roark_: with a cron job its perfect. but like i said, have a look in the man pages im sure there is a way to do what you want. using --exclude and wildcards too [02:36] switch10_: it would be great if you could send me your scripts(if possible) [02:36] wizzo50: if you have to browse for the application, it's in /usr/bin [02:36] roark_: I use rsync everyday, on almost all of my machines. [02:37] roark_: ill pastebin you a few.. [02:37] switch10_ : awesome i dont have working knowledge of it.... i only read about it few days back [02:37] can somebody rsync your hdd over the internet? [02:37] mickster04: apt-cache depends should list the dependencies, so you can estimate how much installing you'll have to do... [02:37] dos123: i dont think so [02:37] suddenzero, google didn't find the forum, so neither did I. [02:37] lol [02:37] !who | dos123 [02:37] dos123: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [02:37] dos123: you should use nas if you want to connect to it from internet [02:37] Losha: cheers [02:38] tatsel, I want to get it back to like it did, automatically. Should I reinstall Ubuntu? [02:38] wizzo50: no. [02:38] dsnyders: Are you running sendmail, or sendemail? [02:38] Losha: i always wanted to ask ... is !who case insensitive.. and can tab be any punctuation mark like . , : ; [02:38] That Ubottu...what an annoying know-it-all ;-) [02:38] greezmunkey, I have no idea. [02:39] cant realy try bcos i dont know what happes on your end [02:39] wizzo50: I don't know, but reinstalling is not the thing to do. [02:39] Losha: cant realy try bcos i dont know what happes on your end [02:39] tatsel, Where is sebsebseb? [02:39] greezmunkey, How do I find out? [02:39] wizzo50: huh? [02:39] wizzo50: I've not seen sebsebseb for weeks... [02:39] tatsel, You know him on here? [02:39] no i dont [02:39] @ dsnyders hmm, that is strange because I am looking right at the page I posted the link to. sorry === andog is now known as ando_g === ando_g is now known as ando_x [02:40] tatsel, I haven't been on here for quite awhile myself [02:40] hey guys, beginner ubuntu user here, suffering the infamous(?) updated and "gave up waiting for root device" problem, anyone know of a definitive, hand-holding workaround documentation for fixing this through busybox? [02:40] Maybe he ran out of seb? [02:40] voss749, LOL [02:40] roark_: here is my /home backup http://paste.ubuntu.com/415268/. notice I exclude Music and Videos, becasue I have rsync backing them up in a different cronjob with different options. [02:40] wizzo, sort of like ED ;-) [02:41] Kirsten you might want to try #ubuntu-beginners [02:41] suddenzero, I am looking at the page you linked to as well. However, when I tried to google for the error message, I didn't get that page. [02:41] thank-you [02:41] switch10_ : cool can you post cron job which is syncing music and videos [02:41] roark_: not sure what you're asking. tab is the tab key. It autocompletes names in most clients, in a client-specific way... [02:41] hello [02:41] Losha: oops dint know that [02:41] voss749, who is ED? [02:42] Losha: awesome more productive [02:42] Information about compiling a custom kernel on Ubuntu can be found here: [KernelCustomBuild] [02:42] roark_: saves a buttload of typing... [02:42] Losha: yes :) [02:42] Greets! [02:42] what is the coolest program for Linux ? [02:42] My Ubuntu 9.10 have some problems which happens once in 2-3 days. There is anyway to fix errors or lost packages on Ubuntu ? [02:42] anom01y: 'ssh' :) [02:43] anom01y, /bin/freeze :-) [02:43] switch10_: the command u pasted.. will it run as a cron job [02:43] roark_: make sure if you add in the the -v --progress or --stats options, you are not running it as a cron job becasue it will fail without somewhere to output... [02:43] anyone know what the route flag 'e' is? I've got a route with Ue under flags, and I can't get any traffic through that interface. Checked man pages and google, no luck :( [02:43] switch10_: sure [02:43] roark_: that exact one does yes. [02:43] switch10_: how often do you run the cron job [02:43] Uboss: Your statement sounds very strange: normally running systems don't 'lose' packages. [02:43] switch10_: once every minute [02:43] Help me: I cant get my line input to unmute with this... pulse... mixer crap [02:43] switch10_: ? [02:44] roark_: once a day for some, once every few days for others.. [02:44] Losha, I did a restart and I was looking only thumb and no cursor or start menu. [02:44] switch10_: awesome.. thanks [02:45] hello? [02:45] roark_: make sure you chmod u+x the_file tho :) [02:45] i downloaded the latest mozilla and it's a .tar.bz2 how do i replace my exisiting version with the latest? [02:45] !hi | dozler [02:45] dozler: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [02:45] does anyone run cairo-dock w/ open gl? i have the black box and i have tried over and over to remove it.. [02:45] mozilla firefox that is [02:45] switch10_: which one destination or source... i am assuming destination which will be my external hdd [02:46] i run cairo-dock without open gl [02:46] roark_: my Music and vid backup look just like the other backup without the exclude options, and --delete [02:46] thebruce: Theres repositories that have teh latest - you should be using those. not the tar.bz2 one you got from the firefox web sitre [02:46] no open gl :o [02:46] yeah i run it w/o the open gl but it looks way sweeter with open gl [02:46] roark_: yes your dest would be your usb hdd [02:46] Dr_Willis, should i look in the Ubuntu Software centeR? [02:46] besides the black box [02:46] sacrilege [02:46] or the synaptic package manager [02:46] thebruce: its in UNOFFICIAL ubuntu repositories, various PPA repos [02:46] switch10_: no i meant on which file should i change access permissions [02:46] switch10_: chmod u+x [02:46] thebruce: so its not going to be in there by default [02:47] !firefox [02:47] firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins - See also !firefox-3.5 [02:47] -!- BANG! Dr_Willis emerges fom the smoke! [02:47] harleypig: and about to head out to work as well. [02:47] roark_: yeah make it executable [02:48] switch10_: cool [02:48] roark_: if you are running it as a cron job that is. [02:48] yah! i blocked all youtube ads!!! [02:48] switch10_: sure thats the only reasonable way i guess... running it as a cron job [02:48] ##winehq [02:48] roark_: it beats running it manually for sure. [02:49] switch10_: ya [02:49] any cairo-dock open gl users in here? or is there a better dock that i am not aware of that uses 3d animations? [02:49] thanks Dr_Willis just added ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable to my sources [02:49] Does ubuntu support this hardware? http://www.marok.org/Arte/Mix/fufme.png [02:50] how do i install a printer with ubuntu?? [02:50] phoebus: do that again and I will request that you be banned... [02:51] Losha, loosen up, it's a joke :P [02:51] phoebus: jokes go on #ubuntu-offtopic.... [02:51] phoebus: internet is serious business [02:51] lol [02:51] Losha, it was very quiet :P [02:52] casemods: Losha come on, relax [02:52] Don't worry no bandwidth catastrophically lost. [02:52] Losha, is just trying to keep everything on topic [02:52] phoebus: if only you had a way of measuring traffic to that pic in realtime [02:52] switch10_: is there any way to backup names of packages installed ... after a clean install of ubuntu.... ( i mean saving all sudo apt-get install * ) on external hard drive... so that if my laptop crashes i just have to run the script which stored all sudo apt-get install commands and I will back to where I was............. [02:52] g33kergRL, indeed :P [02:52] what picture? [02:52] fufme pic [02:52] !clone | roark_ [02:52] roark_: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate [02:52] ? [02:53] casemods, I'll pm you sec [02:53] roark_: sudo dpkg --get-selections > /home/dave/upgrade/installed_packages [02:53] sudo rsync -a /etc/apt/sources.list /home/dave/upgrade/ [02:53] any reason why my spell check in mozilla is british? [02:53] phoebus: it's not the joke (though it *is* tasteless), it's the fact that it doesn't scale. If only 10% of users start posting one-liner jokes, the channel would be completely unusable... [02:53] roark_: I run that as a cron job as well.. [02:53] thebruce: it's sad to see ppl lose their memory at this young age [02:54] g33kergRL, what? [02:54] Losha: there's a fine line between responsible modding and Irc nazism [02:54] Tasteless? It's hilarious that this was once an actual product -- in circulation :P [02:54] switch10_: ok dpkg --get-selections i hope it gives only those which I installed AFTER installing ubuntu and doesnt include packages that were already there with ubuntu distro [02:54] anybody help me figure out my graphics driver problem? [02:54] But shouldn't this discussion be in offtopic now? >.> *runs off* [02:55] roark_: it works great. and you can take the list that i am calling installed_packages, and have dpkg automatically install them on your new install. pretty slick. [02:55] how do i install a printer with ubuntu?? [02:55] g33kergRL: true, and I don't always agree with the ops either, but it was both off-topic *and* blue... [02:55] phoebus he's blue [02:55] casemods: theres a menu item in the admin menu.. You have actually tried to install/configure it? [02:56] Dr_Willis: not at all, i don't nkow how [02:56] roark_: it includes all installed packages. including those that are included with ubuntu, unless you remove them. [02:56] casemods: time to put forth a little effort and explore Your menus then and look for the printer tool/icons. [02:56] g33kergRL: he's a smurf. And he's successfully trolled us.... [02:56] switch10_: so i hope installing them again shoudlnt cause any problem [02:56] phoebus: Losha: the absolute power of an irc mod is corrupting many [02:57] roark_: na. it will tell you that it is already installed. [02:57] switch10_: cool [02:57] my dad needs the printer to work or i have to re-install XP [02:57] roark_: no problems [02:57] Losha: ah, actually, i was saying TO phoebus "he's blue" about YOU .... [02:57] g33kergRL: power corrupts, but intermittent power corrupts absolutely.... [02:57] casemods: time to look in the Administrator menu. and actally run the printer config tool... then come back if you cant get it working [02:57] Losha: jokes about THAT i don't find funny at all [02:57] ubuntu software sources has plenty of printer apps there for ya [02:58] Dr_Willis: what is the exact name? and where do I find it? [02:58] g33kergRL: enough. Take it offtopic if you want to continue, ok? [02:58] also try simply using a usb cord from your printer to your computer.. it will detect it [02:58] channel dictators is not a laughing matter [02:58] casemods: no idea.. Im not on gnome.. im not going to hold your hand when you cant even seem to look in one menu. its the 3rd from the left.. [02:58] System -> administration -> printing [02:59] ubottu: thanks... i only want to store the package names instead of installing them on other machine [02:59] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:59] nastjuid: thanks. :) seems rather logical eh. [02:59] actually [02:59] roark_: bots .... ;) [02:59] ubottu: i have a external hdd whre i want to sync all the package names i installed so that if my laptop crashes i can get back to previous state easily [02:59] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:59] ah, yeah, that's it. attach a printer and click new [02:59] If that doesn't work, I can't help you. I don't use paper. [03:00] g33kergRL: how did it answer my question :) [03:00] g33kergRL: very intelligent bot [03:00] g33kergRL: :P [03:00] roark_: no clue, im not as intelli as she is [03:00] g33kergRL: she? [03:00] should i be using cairo with open gl? [03:01] * g33kergRL explains to roark_ that all intelligent bots are female, stupid bots are male ... [03:01] Anyone know the gui app name to launch shrew? [03:01] g33kergRL: got it madam [03:01] jimi_: tamed shrew? [03:01] switch10_: can you think of any other folders outside home that i should sync... [03:01] nastjuid thanks that worked [03:01] g33kergRL, shrew vpn client [03:02] anyway to get an icon to launch gparted instead of sudo gparted [03:02] vpn ...? is that even kosher? [03:02] roark_: no. I sync a few random other things that I have made changes to like /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/fstab [03:03] switch10_: ya etc/apt/sources.list is important i think [03:03] switch10_: i dont usually make changes to fstab.. [03:03] Hey, I've got a weird problem... 2 computers connected by ethernet to same router, both on dhcp, can communicate with eachother...but only one can access internet... any ideas? [03:03] switch10_: cool anyways [03:03] Hello guys... I compiled KDE on ubuntu, I changed KDE language to portuguese.. made the same with gnome (using gnome-language selector), but any gtk program is still in english, any clue? [03:04] roark_: ya just stuff you have made changes to. unless you feel like re doing it. [03:04] has anyone tried to sync iphone/ipod with libimobiledevice and can help me ?? [03:04] * nastjuid facepalms [03:04] tcpip [03:04] switch10_: any other sync mechanism other than rsync...i heard rsync is more useful on non reliable and slow networls... since i will be connecting my hdd using usb i think my network is pretty reliable :) [03:04] forgot to start radvd after rebooting the router [03:04] roark_: I keep half a dozen files from /etc. I can recover almost all config from those few files. Parts of /home I can't live without get backed up when I remember... [03:04] are both computers tcpip...? [03:05] switch10_: any sync mechanism which makes an assumption that network is reliable which is a decent assumption in my case i think === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log [03:05] roark_: I havent needed to use anything but rsync. I use it over my network. [03:05] Quelqu'un parle français dans la salle ? :-x [03:05] davebs: make/model of router? [03:06] !fr | christopher [03:06] christopher: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr, ou #ubuntu-qc pour les Quebecois [03:06] roark_: the reason people use rsync is because it can be configured to avoid copying files which haven't changed.... [03:06] switch10_: is your network lan or anything bigger and slower than that... like do you sycn your office and home comps [03:06] Thanks !! :-) [03:06] roark_: no, just over my LAN [03:06] <3 [03:06] Losha: cool then it makes lot of sense to stick with rsync... [03:06] nastjuid: 2x wrt54g with ddwrt in a wireless bridge [03:06] Losha: since changes in files are smaller than actual files themselves... i thought you meant the same thing [03:07] nastjuid: both computers connected by wire to bridge which then connects wirelessly to the one in the other room which is connected to cable modem [03:07] roark_: the only thing better than rsync would be a proper full/incremental backup program... [03:07] Losha: roark_ that is truly the greatest feature in rsync, it just syncs the changes. it saves so much time/bandwidth [03:07] does anyone know how or if its possible to install lvm encryption on an already installed Ubuntu OS? [03:08] hey. does anyone here know anything about setting up RAID? [03:08] Losha: bacula - if you want to commit the resources to it! [03:08] gp5st: http://dpaste.com/184389/ [03:08] davebs: are both machines getting an address and gateway? can both hit the router with icmp? [03:08] hi! when I start gparted to make space for a partition for ubuntu (after installing through the 64-bit windows option), the option to move/resize the partition is grey'ed on the menu. How do I change this to eliminate the windows? [03:09] roark_: I can't remember if rsync will only transmit the changed blocks in a file, but it definitely knows to skip over files which have no changes... [03:09] Sk_Lg: unmount the disk... [03:09] Sk_Lg: the reason is because you are using that partition (root partition is mounted). Boot off an ubuntu live CD and you should be able to [03:09] nastjuid: both getting address, both getting gateway, how do i check if they hit w/ icmp? [03:09] greezmunkey: I prefer dump/restore myself, but each to their own... [03:10] gp5st: I installed this system from the cli only version on the alternate cd [03:10] davebs: just ping [03:10] nastjuid: actually, that's interesting, one can pull up router while the other (the broken one) can't [03:10] Losha: yeah, I looked into bacula...I don't run a data center here, so rsync'n it! [03:10] which OS is the one that can't? [03:10] nastjuid: Yeah, I get destination host unreachable trying to ping router [03:10] Stopped on by to see if I can get some help with my video capture problem. [03:11] gotta go...bye [03:11] roark_: ah, here it is, from the man page: "...The rsync remote-update protocol allows rsync to transfer just the differences between two sets of files across the network connection, using an efficient checksum-search algorithm.." [03:11] the "device is busy", how can I boot off a virtual disk? (since a burner is not readily available) [03:11] gp5st: any ideas? [03:11] davebs: which OS is the one that can't? [03:12] nastjuid: ubuntu 9.10 32bit, everything fairly standard i think [03:12] anything in iptables -L ? [03:12] It appears the Dazzle Fusion video capture device is not working with Ubuntu 10.04 [03:12] MTecknology: hmm, i didn't expect it to find the partitions on the drive w/o mounting it [03:12] I heard there's a workaround. Anyone have any ideas? [03:12] lspci is reading it. But I can't use it! lol [03:12] MTecknology: maybe get gparted and see what format that partition is in? [03:12] nastjuid: and fwiw it's been working and i haven't made any changes to anything I can think of, other than adding a raid array purely for storage [03:13] goodfella121: 10.04 problems on #ubuntu+1 please... === |xrandr| is now known as xrandr_desktop [03:13] Sk_Lg: you cant boot your machine from an iso image if thats what you mean. unless you are on a virtual machine [03:13] got it [03:13] davebs: anything in iptables -L ? [03:13] Losha: this was a problem with 9.04 and 9.10 [03:13] gp5st: sdb1 = vfat [03:14] gp5st: I use fdisk -l [03:14] goodfella121: oh, in that case it's ok, pardon me... [03:14] Sk_Lg: if you dont have a cd burner use unetbootin to but the cd image on a flash disk [03:14] nastjuid: first, told me "can't initialize iptables table 'filter': permission denied" then w/ sudo gives nothing [03:14] gp5st: I've been mounting things myself but I'd like them to auto mount [03:14] put* [03:14] Losha: lol no, it's fine. So I've tested this on all version and I was wondering, if the command lspci is reading the make and model in terminal, what is preventing me from using the device? [03:14] MTecknology: i think you can write udev rules for it [03:14] since it's finding it ok and everything [03:15] gp5st: Are you sure it's udev? [03:15] MTecknology: yeah [03:15] switch10_: ok, put the cd image on a flash disk then boot from that? [03:15] unless it's changed recently [03:15] davebs: it sounds like the machine attached to the modem is bridging or doing passthrough, and the first machine on the other end that requests an address gets it. The address of the one that works is a private IP? [03:16] goodfella121: reading make & model just means the device responds to basic probes by returning some text. It's promising, but no guarantee of full functionality. What does google say about that model? [03:17] Losha: unfortunately, Google has returned much. I've used the key words "dazzle fusion ubuntu video capture" and nothing. I've tried Kdenlive and Kino... but no luck. lol [03:17] Sk_Lg: or try: http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html [03:17] how do I do audio calls with empathy to google talk users? [03:17] nastjuid: Sorry, I don't understand, private ip? It's kinda setup like: (Tower) (Server) >>>ethernet>>>wrt54g1))))wireless)))))wrt54g2>>>cable modem, if that makes sense? [03:18] davebs: yeah, i got that. What's the IP of the machine that works? [03:18] osmosis: I think it is xmpp or somethin [03:18] Tower = 192.168.1.148, Server=192.168.1.128, wrt54g1=192.168.1.2, wrt54g2=192.168.1.1 [03:18] join ubuntu-beginners [03:18] nastjuid: 192.168.1.148 works [03:18] identd is working how do i stop it [03:18] goodfella121: try one of the mythtv forums? Those guys know tons about tv capture... [03:18] Sk_Lg: yeah, you cant simply copy the iso onto the flash disk. you have to system>admin>startup disk creater or unetbootin [03:19] suddenzero: /join #ubuntu-beginners [03:19] can anyone tell me how to re-enable the OS menu at boot? [03:19] gp5st: I'm going to switch kernels - brb [03:19] Losha: absolutely. so i don't have to look, can you give me the channel name? It'd be appreciated [03:19] any way to zip a file w/o compression in ubuntu? [03:20] minident fakeidentd [03:20] thebruce: mkisofs ? [03:20] zip a folder without compression rather [03:20] goodfella121: *I* had to look it up: #mythtv-users [03:20] Losha: sorry broheim lol [03:21] gp5st: so - having udev running doesn't change anything [03:21] thebruce: "gzip -1" ;) [03:21] udev is always running [03:21] goodfella121: also check out http://www.mythtvtalk.com/forum/ [03:21] Losha: thanks! [03:21] thebruce: how about "mv file file.zip"? :) [03:21] switch10_: so I have the .iso going to a 2gb disk, but it gives me 2 options for the one device [03:22] hmm SvenG that's interesting [03:22] switch10_: should I just click on the one with free space? [03:22] gp5st: .... you missed what I said about how I built this system.. [03:22] but when i rename a file it doesnt make it an archive [03:22] how can I choose what operating system on startup? [03:22] thebruce: true. was just an idea. ;) [03:22] nastjuid: It's got me scratching my head too... kinda a screwy setup but everything should work. And what's really weird is I use synergy to use one keyboard and one mouse to control the two computers and I can control the one that can't get on the internet fine (and that's the one that doesn't have a keyboard connected) [03:22] how do i find out which application is opening a port [03:22] thebruce: why do you want that, by the way? [03:23] davebs: what's the netmask on the one that's not working? [03:23] MTecknology: the cli installer should have done udev iirc [03:23] hell0: watch it very very closely ;) [03:23] SvenG, i am repackaging an apk for android [03:23] how can I choose what operating system on startup? [03:23] and im new to the linux scene [03:23] i use 7zip in windows [03:23] nastjuid: 255.255.255.0 [03:23] SvenG, ? [03:23] thebruce: so it has to be a zip file... fine. but why "no compression"? [03:23] gp5st: I'm trying out dpkg-reconfigure udev [03:23] hell0: ";-)" [03:23] is there any way i can create a virtual network to test my networking skills with ubuntu? [03:24] well it has to be an apk [03:24] thebruce: in the man page for zip, it talks about -n to disable compression for certain files... [03:24] davebs: earlier when you said 'pull up' did you mean access the management page? So the one that can't work also can't access the management page? [03:24] nyhcjedi try virtualbox [03:24] but if you create a zip archive and rename to .apk that works [03:24] thebruce: well.. problem solved?! [03:24] SvenG, if u dont wanna help .. ;) [03:24] problem solved? no [03:24] nastjuid: yes [03:24] hell0: use tcpdump [03:24] crazy [03:24] MTecknology: i think udev is running, since it creaded /dev/sdb, that's what it does. you can write a rule and say that you also want to mount certain drives [03:24] i have vbox and i got a xp copy working just not sure if it can be networked together with a server and stuff [03:25] yes you can be network did you try bridge or hostonly network? [03:25] gp5st: udev doesn't need to be running for that, that's the kernel seeing the drive being connected [03:25] thebruce: in the man page for zip, see also -0 (under -#) [03:25] gp5st: could you pastebin top -b -n 1 | grep udev [03:25] MTecknology: that's what udev does [03:25] davebs: what happens if you drop the interface on the one that doesn't work then bring it up with the dhcp client? (will probably have to plug keyboard in for that) [03:25] under -#? [03:26] how can i change the time the boot menu asks?? [03:26] nyhcjedi, try bridge or host only network [03:26] MTecknology: i'm on a mac [03:26] oh.. [03:26] thebruce: loscha is right! :) "-# Regulate the speed of compression using the specified digit #, where -0 indicates no compression (store all files)," [03:26] thebruce: yes, where # is a digit from 0 (no compression) to 9.... [03:26] so [03:26] gp5st: if you don't have udev running that message will still show in in dmesg, udev has nothing to do with it [03:26] switch10_: installation failed, an uncaught exception was raised: [errno2] No such file or directory [03:26] zip -0 /directory [03:26] nastjuid: Yeah, I've got an extra keyboard, what's the command? Disconnect from network gui thing then dhcpd eth0? [03:26] thebruce: zip -0 archivename $dir [03:27] SvenG: don't sound so surprised. I may be old but I can still read man pages... :-) [03:27] Losha: err....? [03:27] MTecknology: i'm pretty sure udev is what adds it to /dev otherwise it's just another usb device, unless it's different in ubuntu [03:27] SvenG: just joking... [03:27] davebs: disconnect, then dhclient eth0 might be dhcpcd etho [03:27] zip warning: missing end signature--probably not a zip file (did you [03:27] zip warning: remember to use binary mode when you transferred it?) [03:27] zip warning: (if you are trying to read a damaged archive try -F) [03:27] that's what is tells me [03:27] Losha: ah :) [03:27] thebruce: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:28] thebruce: what was your command which resulted in that error message? [03:28] zip -0 framework-res.apk /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/ [03:28] thebruce: it thinks you're trying to read a zip archive. You got the arguments wrong... [03:28] gp5st: I have no udev instance running, plug it in, I see the message in dmesg - that's a kernel module that handles that, udev should actually mount that to /media/xxx i think [03:28] yeah i see that, im trying to create a zip [03:28] nastjuid: ha, awesome, dhcpcd not installed... [03:28] davebs: dhclient ? [03:29] thebruce: you need -r to recursively zip a directory... [03:29] thebruce: "zip -0 foo.zip dir/" - works for me *shrug* [03:29] nastjuid: ugh, now i just reconnected, and it all works... [03:29] Hello, I was wondering if anyone in here played WoW with Ubuntu and could help me with a problem [03:29] can anyone help? my menu list is empty. I want to boot back into windows but it wont let me [03:29] Losha, -r where? [03:29] MTecknology: are you sure about that, i thought udev only created /dev entries and ran associated scripts [03:30] gp5st: I'm positive [03:30] thebruce: zip -r -0 framework-res.apk /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/ [03:30] casemods: menu list? menu of *what*? grub? [03:30] nastjuid: for future reference, I guess I should just create a batch script I can run that does ifconfig eth0 down then up huh? [03:30] davebs: so it got a dhcp advertisement? [03:30] switch10_: installation failed, an uncaught exception was raised: [errno2] No such file or directory; will a 512 memory stick work? [03:30] SvenG: yes grub [03:30] hmm what does -r mean/do? when should i use that? [03:30] Sk_Lg: no that is too small. you need at least 700mb [03:30] davebs: if it's up the first time, you shouldn't need to [03:30] nastjuid: I guess, I tried restarting before but no dice [03:30] casemods: okay... cant really help here... (not a grub expert), but you should mention "grub"! :) [03:30] nastjuid: But yeah, weird [03:31] thebruce: -r means to zip a directory and all the files/subdirectories inside it, recursively... [03:31] hmm ok [03:31] thebruce: "-r" = "recurse into directories" [03:31] casemods, is Windows not showing up in the OS Choices menu? [03:31] hmm... i am getting a little slow here... 4:30am.. [03:31] ok so i zip -r -0 framework-res.apk /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/ [03:31] Jordan there is no OS choices menu to speak of....i think it went away.... [03:31] and then i don't see the .zip now in /home/bruce/Desktop/5056 [03:32] thebruce: the zip file should be in $PWD [03:32] I'm creating a form using the wizard in base, but when I click finish, nothing happens. What's up? [03:32] why are you using .zip? [03:32] whoa why SvenG [03:32] thebruce: zip -v -r -0 framework-res.apk /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/ <-- added -v verbose flag so you can see what it's doing [03:32] why wouldn't you use tar... [03:32] ejv: he's creating a package file [03:32] nastjuid: Thank you for the help though, I really should find a hobby that is a bit more conducive to my sanity :-) [03:33] ejv: has to be a zip file apparently [03:33] davebs: you have no idea how much that statement applies to me righ tnow [03:33] thebruce: if you want your zip file to be created elsewhere then you must give the dir, too! [03:33] ok i see a bunch of files that were compress [03:33] how do you set up wifi in icewm? [03:33] well i gave the same directory at the end there SvenG [03:33] thebruce: like.. "zip -r -0 /path/file.zip $dir" [03:33] hi [03:34] thebruce: oh. must have missed this [03:34] ohh well im cd'd into the directory where the file is [03:34] too much scrolling in here ;-) [03:34] ohh wait no im not lol [03:34] thebruce: the zip file should be in the current directory, named framework-res.apk.zip [03:34] Does anyone here play WoW with Wine? [03:34] jordan: not me i aint [03:35] nastjuid: Haha, you and me both, you and me both... [03:35] have 2 hard drives that were running software raid with LVM on top of that in Ubuntu 9.04. Somehow the LVM info got hosed. Now the /dev/md0 comes up as just Free Space. pvscan, vgscan and lvscan come up with nothing. Any ideas? === JonMelamut is now known as JonMelamut-Lenov === JonMelamut-Lenov is now known as JonMelamut [03:35] ok so now im in the directory where my folder is [03:36] and i run zip -v -r -0 framework-res.apk /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/ [03:36] and it tells me missing end signature like it's trying to read a zip again [03:36] switch10_: how do I format this particular thumb drive? [03:36] thebruce: good! :) [03:37] im sorry guys im actually quite capable but this is very strange and new to me [03:37] thebruce: is your $PWD *within* /home/bruce/Deskto/5056/ ? [03:37] im stuck in a windows frame of mind [03:37] thebruce: ;) [03:37] $PWD? [03:37] thebruce: "the current working directory" [03:37] your current directory [03:37] use the command pwd [03:37] it will show it [03:37] thebruce: are you creating thearchive within the directory tree you are zupping? [03:38] yes [03:38] thebruce: ahaaaaa! recursion! ;-) [03:38] my pwd is /home/bruce/Desktop/5056 [03:38] thebruce: doh! [03:38] is it possible to select the installed packages from ubuntu desktop CD? [03:38] my file i want to zip is in /home/bruce/Desktop/5056 [03:38] thebruce: so you are telling the zip file to create it within the directory your are zipping... baaaaad idea ;) [03:39] I cannot see this in the installer [03:39] ohh no [03:39] thebruce: dont do it. [03:39] lol [03:39] this is the directory to the file /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/framework-res.apk [03:39] thebruce: i recommend to it like this: [03:39] i want the zip to be in the same parent folder [03:39] in /home/bruce/Desktop/5056 [03:39] got me? [03:39] thebruce: zip $options archive subdir/ [03:39] silly question, but for a mini running netbook remix i find it almost impossible to find space on the panel to right-click for 'add to panel'; is there soem secret i'm missing? [03:40] mivance: you have to hunt for it, its there [03:40] thebruce: i have seen this before.. i understand.. but it's not working like that [03:40] is there any other mechanism like editing config files? [03:40] really strange ok ill make the output desktop [03:40] thebruce: the archive cannot be part of the data itself [03:41] right of course not [03:41] im using zip -r and it's trying to read a zip and not create one! [03:41] thebruce: so... "zip $options archive subdir/" [03:41] ugh i don't understand [03:42] When I plug in an external drive, dmesg shows me that the drive and partitions are detected. I have pcmanfm installed and I want the new device to show up there so I can click and auto-mount the partition. The way I'm doing it now I have to drop to cli and manually mkdir && mount. What do I need to do for that to work? [03:42] thebruce: you are creating the archive within the directory youa re zipping. while adding data it extends your achive and thus has to reread your directory, adding data, and ... etc, see? [03:43] SvenG no i am not doing that [03:43] thebruce: check you 'man zip' manpage. It's possible your version of zip uses different args... [03:43] the directory i am zipping is /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/framework-res.apk [03:43] What is a Floodbot? [03:44] the output directory is /home/bruce/Desktop/ [03:44] thebruce: /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/framework-res.apk is a *directory* name? [03:44] framework-res.apk is a folder [03:44] yes [03:44] thebruce: oh-kay.... [03:45] jordan: a floodbot is a program which looks for flooding (too many lines of text typed too quickly) and silences the offender temporarily... [03:45] thebruce: zip -r -0 /home/bruce/Desktop/foo.zip /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/framework-res.apk [03:45] Ahh like a spam controller thanks Losha :D [03:45] Besides openvz are there any other types of jail/chroot environments in karmic? I want to run a cgi script that I would like to sandbox if possible... [03:45] what is foo.zip [03:45] ugh [03:45] thebruce: i thought the resulting *achive file name* should be foo."apk" [03:46] I just discovered qemu-kvm package assumes it is being installed to the running system as opposed to a chroot jail or an emergency disk [03:46] ok [03:46] thebruce: "foo.zip" is a general name of the resulting archive [03:46] ahh so the name of the created zip come BEFORE the folder im zipping? [03:46] kind of seems backwards to me [03:46] thebruce: YES :) [03:46] i.e. the cp command or rm [03:47] well not rm but the cp [03:47] thebruce: not quite. the archive name comes first, so the *rest* of line can be a LIST of files and diretories [03:47] thebruce: i think you want this: "zip -r -0 /home/bruce/Desktop/framework-res.apk /home/bruce/Desktop/5056/" [03:48] yeah i do [03:48] thebruce: and let's abbreviate "/home/bruce/" with "~/" ;) [03:48] ahh yeah ~ is home right? [03:48] i am learning some things [03:48] thebruce: should be. with every good shell. :) [03:48] thebruce: you can check with "echo $HOME" [03:49] thebruce: and when you "cd ~/Desktop" before the zip command then the command becomes even shorter [03:49] ohh ok [03:49] ubuntu is for fagas [03:49] thebruce: "cd ~/Desktop; zip -r -0 framework-res.apk 5056/" [03:49] homo [03:49] fuck this [03:49] ubuntu sucks [03:49] Lunix4noobs: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[03:50] SvenG, that zip command is putting home/desktop/5056 in the zip [03:50] lol [03:50] i don't need that [03:51] biping: google finds some stuff on OpenWRT... [03:51] SvenG: What's OpenWRT? [03:52] biping: an OS for access points [03:52] thebruce: did you type that correctly? i sense a typo... === aperson is now known as APERSON [03:52] John{brb} [03:52] i cp'd [03:53] I got this message when linking obj files with libtool [03:53] thebruce: copy&paste? or copying by typing? [03:53] i copied what you typed and pasted in term [03:53] SvenG: can't see any relate to OS [03:54] SvenG: compiling issues, i think [03:54] biping: might be.. *shrug* [03:54] biping: i am really bad at guessing what people do from compile errors ;) [03:54] is there no gui that will compress with no compressions? [03:55] SvenG: all rights, thanks! [03:55] thebruce: once you master the command line stuff you dont want no gui ;) [03:55] well this is getting crazy [03:55] thebruce: Please rephrase your question. [03:55] thebruce: it's a lot easier whwn you can see what someone is really doing ;) [03:55] i don't understand why i can't zip this folder and have it out put that same folder but zipped === malnilion__ is now known as malnilion [03:56] when i get it to zip, it creates my linux directories in the zip [03:56] thebruce: that's because you "cd" *into* that tree [03:57] ok [03:57] im at ~ now [03:57] which is bruce@bruce-ubuntu:~$ [03:58] how can i make turn a folder in a zip? [03:58] thebruce: "zip -0 -r framework-res.apk Desktop/5056/" now [03:58] hey guys, curious what you guys think of http://tap.info [03:58] gla: tap.info... "real-time communities"? [03:59] Gla: as in "chat"? [03:59] Gla: or "IRC"? [03:59] ok where is the zip now? [04:00] thebruce: in the *current* diretory... your home dir. [04:00] thebruce: ls -l *apk [04:00] jzacsh: hmm... your login shell is... csh! no.. zsh! ;-) [04:00] hi [04:01] i see [04:01] ok [04:01] any one from australia [04:01] thebruce: "we have a apk!" right? [04:01] thebruce: missiona ccomplished? [04:01] ahh yes [04:01] ok [04:01] thebruce: check with "file *apk" [04:01] now i need to comprehend this === jamie is now known as Guest15641 [04:02] SvenG: :) bash actually, don't you see it? (the be is hidden) [04:02] jzacsh: yeah... once needs to get started with *something* ;) [04:03] Im 24 year old from north suburbs melbourne australia i have black hair brown eyes 179 cm and 80 kg single and looking add me on msn messenger at dannyj-@live.com thanks [04:03] does anyone know if a .dmg file can be installed and used in Ubuntu?

[04:04] :) [04:04] so zip -0 -r i get that [04:04] i was at my home dir [04:04] SvenG: useradmin_ had already left [04:04] maco: ah! [04:04] and i didn't cd to tell it where the framework-res.apk was [04:04] Home sweet, 127.0.0.1 [04:04] maco: too much scrolling.. ;) [04:04] SvenG: yea [04:05] hook yourself up with your real-time community [04:05] common, I know you want to [04:05] wait i think i get it now SvenG [04:05] Gla: gimme three reasons why tap.info is better than IRC! [04:06] hint: "it's web two oh... uh... color... and.. it's new" - that wont do it. ;-) [04:06] Can a file with a .dmg file extension be converted and used in Ubuntu? [04:06] What if a computer running 9.10 is not seeing the upgrade to 10.04 beta? [04:07] solar flares? [04:07] voss749, it won't until the release is out [04:07] voss749: it wont until 10.04 is released.. [04:07] SvenG: scaleable, easiley accessable, it's name is tap [04:07] =D [04:07] dancallo: might be able to get it open but those usually have executables for OSX in them which you wouldnt be able to run [04:07] 10.04 beta is out [04:07] no the actual release [04:07] Its at beta 2 [04:07] Gla: so is irc. try again! [04:07] so how do you get the beta release [04:07] That's what I thought but wanted to ask someone else as verification. [04:07] nope! [04:07] SvenG: pm? [04:08] Thanks, maco. [04:08] SvenG: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-community/+bug/392799 [04:08] voss749: yes exactly. key word being beta [04:08] try that out for size lol [04:08] dancallo: its just a disk image, so yeah theres probably a way to open it like you would any zip (i mean, .exe's are often just .zip's with a different ending) [04:08] bah [04:08] hello i need help with wine [04:08] !help > steven__ [04:08] steven__, please see my private message [04:09] Gla: so your point is that channels can be too noisy? why - certainly. but you can create other channels just be joining them. so - what was your point again?

[04:09] ahh SvenG sorry man got an issue [04:09] !help [04:09] 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).

[04:11] Gla: and you think you can get *all* of them with tap.info? good luck! [04:12] obviously not [04:12] but a lot more [04:12] anyone ? [04:12] more then 50% more [04:12] Gla: more thAn?

[04:14] Gla: naah. been trying out so much... kept getting back to irc. ;) [04:14] I have to login to around 30 machines, it would be really nice to have something similar to putty [04:14] halfie: openssh [04:14] Gla: after all, i've been using it for 20+ years now [04:14] !ot | SvenG Gla [04:14] SvenG Gla: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [04:14] halfie: openssh! :) [04:14] SvenG im here sorry [04:14] benkevan: yes of course I use ssh all the time but a gui on top (like putty) would be great! [04:14] ubottu: okie :) [04:14] halfie: setup aliases in .bash_aliases, and just use ssh [04:15] halfie: if you want "config" files you can just have a bunch of scripts to go to the respected servers with ssh in a directory.. etc.. [04:15] *openssh [04:15] or as switch10 said.. you can just set up a bunch of aliases.. (i'd have too many) [04:15] benkevan: I have 30 scripts in my ~/bin now to do just that :( [04:16] halfie: "ssh user@host: remotecommand" :-) [04:16] halfie: so you are already set up!! :) [04:16] halfie: that's not too bad.. mine would be north of 200 haha.... [04:16] heh ... 200 .. that is encouraging :D [04:17] halfie: http://putty.very.rulez.org/download.html look near the bottom for Unix source code, download, compile, install. [04:18] akiwiguy: thanks .. will give it a shot [04:18] halfie: just a question, what makes putty any easier? I have never used it.. [04:19] switch10: ohh you should give it a try. it is pretty neat (you can see all your connections in the GUI) [04:19] so you don't have to remember the scripts [04:20] halfie: is it easier than just typing a name though? [04:20] halfie: i mean if you had aliases set up [04:20] halfie.. you can do an ls.. and that would show you all your scripts [04:20] I don't get how that's better? [04:20] switch10_: heh, instead of typing you can click ;) === zz_PhilMather is now known as PhilMather [04:20] halfie: ahh [04:21] sort of filezilla like interface or maybe like gftp software interface [04:21] halfie: you can go to a file manager and see all your scripts and launch it into a terminal if that's what you really want.. [04:21] I don't see how putty does something that you can't on your machine.. [04:22] benkevan: yes I will do that. putty does not provide extra functionality though some might argue that it is slightly more convenient [04:22] halfie: if you want to click on something, you could make desktop short cuts for each machine.... [04:23] hi there, how can I call 'indicate' in the command line ? thks [04:23] switch10_: ahh that is a good idea ... yes I will make ssh folder on my desktop and put all my connections there. will launch using file manager ... [04:23] hi, is there a ppa for kernel 2.6.33, i'm on karmic..how can i easily get the 2.6.33 ? [04:23] halfie there is a kde application that has a GUI that has saved connections [04:23] if that's what you really want [04:23] someone is using KDE in a Vbox ? [04:23] benkevan: kssh? [04:23] I want to show indicate in a shell script [04:24] halfie: create launchers... but yeah I think it is much faster to just type a name. [04:24] halfie: Yes.. kssh [04:24] how would you ever have guessed :D [04:24] or was that a kguess HAHAHAHAH [04:24] was just googling [04:24] keychain is awesome :) [04:24] so are keys :P [04:24] it has made my ssh-ing so much fun ;) [04:25] slckb0y: no, but I have kde installed along gnome and xfce [04:25] keychain is just a wrapper around ssh-agent .. its CLI based [04:26] ah.. [04:26] hum well the problem is i can't manage to activate openGL under KDE, it doesn't recognise the emulated driver [04:26] maybe.. I'll blog about that on my site www.freetechie.com [04:26] slckb0y... what driver? video card? [04:27] david_brent: is going to be very hard to find that 2.6.33 just came out 14 days ago [04:27] yep [04:27] it work under gnome/compiz but not under KDE desktop effect [04:27] david_brent, shift to Arch Linux ;) ... I run it on netbook and it has 2.6.33 [04:28] but yet opengl is working in everything else, it's only with the desktop effect [04:28] i am new to the chat but i am having trouble installing sims 2 delux on ubuntu, i installed wine already and when trying to install the game, it freezes at 2%, can anyone help me? [04:28] How much is 10.04 expected to change in the next 2 weeks before release? Can I install now without adverse effects? [04:28] halfie: haha.. that's not nearly a fix.. although I'm an arch linux fan also. .this is my first time giving Ubuntu / Kubuntu a shot [04:28] dahud: I haven't had any issues.. [04:28] but you may have better luck asking #ubuntu+1 [04:28] dahud: it will change a lot, stability wise. [04:28] halfie: i dont have time to do an arch install right now, i just need the kernel for the b43 driver [04:28] simm: do you know if sim 2 is compatible with wine? [04:29] are you trying to install from the command line? what type of exit does it have? what is it crashing on? [04:29] david_brent: IIRC there is kernel-ppa thing right? [04:29] what os container do you have for wine etc? .. all those are important [04:29] david_brent.. I give me 1 sec.. i'll check if ppa has it [04:29] halfie: i found some debs [04:29] david_brent, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.33/ [04:29] benkevan: i think it is, i read online before that sims 2 will install on ubuntu, [04:29] there you go .. I have used kernel-ppa with success .. [04:30] thanks all [04:30] http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.33/ < add that ppa.. oh screw you halfie: :D [04:30] benkevan: i wonder if it just takes a long time to install on ubuntu, could that be a possiblility? because i just dont see the percent going up\ [04:30] heh .. [04:30] usually it's faster with sine.. haha [04:30] simm: go to the wine-hq website and check compatibility [04:31] hunahpu: ok i will do that now [04:31] wine ... grrrrr! ... install virtualbox and run your app there! [04:31] i like virtualbox [04:31] * hunahpu agrees with halfie [04:31] it's like.. virtual and stuff [04:31] no need to mess for wine for days to get notepad working ;) [04:31] * hunahpu wonders who would want notepad when there is gedit, geany, vim, etc... [04:32] * benkevan pico pico [04:32] picolo! [04:32] you guys haven't seen the power of notepad :P [04:32] i sure hope you mean notepad++ [04:32] just kidding guys .. :D [04:32] I prefer notepad-- [04:33] Anybody got a decent OneNote replacement? [04:33] I am having problems getting samba to start after rebooting. it worked once, but i cant get it to work again. any help please? [04:33] I like vim but after seeing my friend using emacs ... I am tempted to learn emacs! [04:33] ok guys, thanks with my sims 2 problem, it looks like it is compatible but it is just taking forever, i opened details and it just has a lot of files to load, i got one more question though [04:33] halfie: good luck, if you are used to vim learning emacs is... lets say not-pleasent [04:33] and viceversa I suppose [04:34] hunahpu, I am not very good at vim though. So switching might be less of a pain [04:34] right now i am dual booting because my xp is bad and i cannot find a repair disk, i think i am almost out of memory that i set aside for ubuntu, is there a way for me to increase its capacity? [04:34] I like vim .. i don't know it very well.. but I like it.. haha [04:34] memory or hard disk space? [04:34] and how much space did you give? [04:34] I do lot of coding (c,c+,java, python, php, shell, some ocaml ) and think emacs might be better suited [04:34] ubuntu doesn't need much (nor does linux in general) [04:35] simm: when you say memory you mean hard drive space? you can install another hard drive and move files to it [04:35] benkevan: i dont remember because i installed it maybe a month ago [04:35] I have alot of porn.. so browsers suit me better.. whoops.. realizes this isn't ubuntu-offtopic [04:35] simm df -h [04:35] hunahpu: the harddrive space [04:35] benkevan: df -h in the terminal? [04:35] halfie: I've used vim since I first touched linux, so I'm very used to it, but lately I've been using gedit and geany, and I'm loving them [04:35] in a terminal window.. or go to the menu and use Disk Usage Analyzer [04:36] simm.. yes that'll tell you how much disk space you have left [04:36] simm: yes just buy and install a new one, the larger the better, and transfer files to it [04:36] because i know in windows you can increase the partition size but i dont know how to do it from ubuntu side [04:36] hunahpu, I wish I could use notepad++ or eclipse everywhere but many times I work on remote machines .. so have to learn vim/emacs. [04:36] if you're on lvm then sure.. :D .. but then you'd have to of installed using the alternate cd.. [04:36] this work? [04:36] simm: have you tried gparted? [04:36] simm, the gparted tool can adjust partition sizes [04:37] guess so [04:37] simm: if you have unused space you can use it, in Ubuntu we have GParted, you can give room to one partition at cost of taking space from another one [04:37] haha.. I blogged about that very topic a few days ago halfie: http://www.freetechie.com/blog/5-helpful-vi-and-vim-vi-improved-cheat-sheets-and-quick-reference-cards/ [04:37] someone said "vim".... [04:37] ... and emacs in the smae line! [04:37] k found it guys, thanks [04:37] benkevan, awesome. thanks! [04:37] on another channel, when I talk in it, it sends back the error: cannot send to channel [04:37] heresy! ;-) [04:37] looks like I can talk in here though [04:38] heh Vim / Emacs. .. there I said it again :P [04:38] halfie: I am going to do a post for cheat sheets on emacs / pico too [04:38] :D [04:39] ew.. looks like the channel is moderated. [04:39] johnmn3: some channels require you to be registered, others require someone to give you a 'voice'... [04:39] have a pretty good article written for when Ubuntu is release for "what to do after installing ubuntu" [04:39] I have a Canon MX870 printer... ubuntu does not have the driver by default, so I checked the site, and they provide a Mac driver in the form of a .dmg... do I have any chance of getting this working on ubuntu through cups? [04:39] johnmn3, yes, this channel is moderated. [04:40] johnmn3, it is because u are not registered [04:40] dsnyders: naw, I mean there's another channel I just joined.. can't talk in it at all. [04:40] says, #clojure :Cannot send to channel [04:40] benkevan: must be a whole book... ;-) [04:41] dsnyders: google says that if it says that, it means no one can talk but channel operators [04:41] johnmn3: I was able to say hello there. I'm registered... [04:41] halfie: you know.. when you mention both editors in the same sentence.. then you raise H3LL?! [04:41] SvenG .. haha.. naw.. just some of the basic points.. shows how to install proprietary drivers, using the update manager, installing local .deb files, installing using the software center.. changing themes etc.. [04:41] Losha: ah, so you gotta be registered then? [04:41] gay [04:41] just some basic stizzuf.. [04:41] I am having problems getting samba to start after rebooting. it worked once, but i cant get it to work again. any help please? [04:41] johnmn3: please do not use that term pejoratively in this channel... [04:42] chris7894: Sure.. what errors are you getting? what exactly are you trying to do [04:42] Losha: I might already be registered... what was the login command? [04:43] johnmn3: "/msg nickserv identify === joneslee85_ is now known as joneslee85 [04:43] johnmn3: hunahpu beat me to it... [04:43] ahkkha [04:43] benkevan: if it's not a book then it's just something for someonelike.. yourself! :-P [04:43] thank you both [04:44] what's this book think you keep speaking of? [04:44] benkevan, im not actually getting any errors. i am on a fresh copy of 9.1 fesh install of samba. i setup personal file sharing, was able to see my samba shares for one evening. restarted my computers and now i cant see or connect to the shares [04:45] benkevan: "what to do after installing ubuntu" - this can be a LOT! probably a book then. :) [04:45] benkevan: books were a pre-internet technology that used to be used for information archival and transfer. Now obsolete... [04:45] chris7894: dis you install system-config-samba package? [04:46] hunahpu, yes i installed that package [04:46] chris7894: open it, go to preferences and make sure your user is on the users list [04:46] thing to do after installing ubuntu #1246669: eat a snack, then go for a quick jog [04:46] haha.. SvenG: Yeah.. it's just the things to do "right after" ie customizations [04:46] Losha: Where can I get one of these book things HAHA [04:47] are they .pdf? [04:47] hunahpu, the user (me) is in the list [04:47] I don't need to go for a jog.. haha.. I'm plenty in shape :D [04:47] I was happy to be curling back over 100lbs again today.. yay === johnnyjboss is now known as johnnyj [04:47] chris7894: make sure it starts on boot, open a terminal and type "ls -l /etc/rc2.d/*samba [04:48] curling... yeah... "man curl" :) [04:49] SvenG: very good :-) [04:49] well played [04:49] hunahpu, what does that command do? [04:49] chris7894: ls stands for list, the -l will show you permissions and more importantly where the symlink points to [04:50] chris7894: if you run it.. you'll see that it's listing everything *sambba [04:50] s/sambba/samba [04:50] chris7894: if you feel unsure, type "man ls" on your terminal so you can read the manual; to exit press Q [04:50] I need help. I downloaded a subtitle file. Where is it? So I said, open in archive manager. Thus I see the title (but dont know where is is). So I search with cntl-F in a Places window. Cant find it. I go look at the archive window, and it seems to say it is in / so I use Places to go to /, wait what's / (maybe I have it wrong and it's not my username directory) so I go to / in terminal, and ls. Nothing. I am lost, please help me find it and put it in the folder wi [04:50] th the movie. [04:50] hi installed ubuntu 9.10.. it starts, but the computer locks almost instantly (complete freeze) -- how can i start in "safe graphics" mode to change graphics settings? [04:50] benkevan, hunahpu i get one line of result [04:51] ogen: open a terminal and type "find / -name " [04:51] so how to undo the effect of rm /etc/resolv.conf? [04:51] chris7894: does it points to ../init.d/samba?? [04:51] ubuntu iso file for powerpc is too large to burn to cd and I decompressed the iso with 7zip and it seems to be smaller in size can't I just use brasoro and just burn the root directories contents to the disk would that work? [04:51] hunahpu, yes it does === mezquitale is now known as tucemiux_ [04:52] directory* [04:52] syrius, thats not exactly how it works, typically the CD will work unless you have a very old CD burner [04:52] chris7894: just to make sure the samba script is really there, type "gedit /etc/init.d/samba" (no quotes) it will open the samba script in gedit, don't worry without using sudo you won't be able to save changes, just check you read the word "daemon" on the first 20 lines [04:53] syrius: No, you could use a DVD or a flash drive though. [04:53] no I don't have any dvds or flash drive [04:53] My ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10 do random logouts. Has anyone had similiar issues and resolved them? [04:53] syrius: Do you have another mac you can connect via firewire? [04:53] that is retarded to use a dvd for that anyways [04:54] It just hangs with a flashing box in the terminal window (I did not use carets around the filename.) [04:54] it is 705 mb that would be a waste [04:54] hunahpu, lots of script in that file....#defaults; run_mode=daemons [04:54] yes I know of that procedure Jordan_U [04:54] syrius, ubuntustudio uses DVD only, not only that but there is no live DVD, you have to install ubuntustudio for it to work [04:54] drleper Do u get to lagin? [04:54] has anyone here been successful at compiling rise of the triads full version? [04:55] well the latest version does yes not past versions tucemiux_ [04:55] but it is larger than 700 mb [04:55] ogen: it will take some time, it's searching for your file in your entire computer, all hard drives and devices, give it time, if it returns to ~:$ and no results, you are searching the wrong name or it is not there [04:55] login [04:55] so it is correct to burn to dvd [04:55] just wonderin' msg me plz if somebody has [04:55] chris7894: OK then the script is right and it is launching at start; the problem must be in your configurations [04:55] but it is retarded any ways when you can just install ubuntu studio after installing ubuntu [04:56] well it is a rewritable disk [04:56] going to test it out and see if it works [04:57] why is it when I decompress the 705mb iso it comes to 692mb [04:57] chris7894: you can use GUI tools to configure it, if you want to configure it manually edit the /etc/samba/smb.conf file with super user powers, this link will give you the basics: http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/smb.conf.5.html [04:59] syrius: I'm not sure you're supposed to run decompress on an iso. It's not in and of itself a compressed format... [04:59] syrius: you can create an .iso file the size you want, even if its contents are just 2kb [04:59] I see well I have faith in 7zip [05:00] yes I know that hunahpu [05:00] but I want to keep it simple [05:00] in windows it is a pain in the ass to do that [05:00] on ubuntu I don't have enough space [05:00] I am trying to find the source for sys_getpid to edit it; however, all the documentation I can find does place it in the place they say it is. Does anyone know where it is located in 2.6.31? [05:00] Ah I looked back at the download page which give an entirely different (30 numbers long) filename BUT says it is a zip archive. So then I DO know what to do in the archive manager (thought the name was lap-tsite.en.srt) and so I could extract it into a specific file. ----- I thought that downloads went into /downloads by default (double checking if it is there... it is not) ---- the subtitles dont show. and when I click on view>sutitle>chose file>(dialo [05:00] g box, choose it)>close --then MoviePlayer exits. HUH? [05:01] syrius: can you do a cd-less install? See http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ (the frugal install) [05:02] the person wants to try it out first [05:02] it needs to be livecd [05:02] syrius, you could also request for a free CD to be sent to you [05:02] other wise I would have downloaded the minicd [05:03] I have money for that [05:03] ogen: try changing the file's name, totem can't handle some characters or very long file names very well [05:03] that should only be for poor people [05:03] hunahpu, ill go through the GUI again, thanks for the assistance [05:03] I don't want to have to buy cds just because it goes over its size by a few megabytes [05:03] chris7894: no problem, good luck [05:04] syrius, if you dont have money for a DVD burner you **might** be poor, a DVD burner is quite cheap, around $40-$60 US dollars [05:04] I did it again but opened movie player first, then the video, then the (other) subtitle file. IT WORKS. (huh? but OK) ---- ((the long file name was only the archive, it vanished after unpacking) --- OK now.. how do I make a copy that will play on a regular dvd player? [05:04] this is slowly working! [05:04] um [05:04] a cheap ass dvd player costs that amount [05:04] yup yup [05:04] I use a quality dvd burner/player [05:04] tucemiux_: 40-60 bucks the expensive ones, I bought one for about ~20 dollars ($260MXN) [05:05] hunahpu, what security settings and other config should i be using [05:05] syrius, i stand corrected, $60 is an expensive DVD burner nowadays, hunahpu bought a really cheap one for $20 US [05:05] ogen: I use devede to convert video files to regular DVD [05:05] no it isn't [05:06] I paid hundred bucks for mine [05:06] chris7894: that's up to you, it depends on how harsh your environment is, as you increase security usability will decrease [05:06] plexor makes excellent drives [05:06] syrius, if you have a DVD burner then use it [05:06] what package provides gnome-sound-recorder [05:06] NO [05:06] Anyone experienced with virtual box?

[05:17] hunahpu, and Losha -- I want to look at the files inside the .iso to see if I can take some of them away and make it smaller. I would like to take that route first. How to do that? [05:18] I am only using ubuntu [05:18] ogen: to mount your iso file, use "sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /media/cdrom0" [05:18] that windows goes to some other computer so it wont work [05:18] OK cool. [05:18] kuroharab, whatismyip.com, you want to use a dns resolution service [05:18] drleper2000 do u get to the login screen? [05:18] tucemiux_:installing the downloaded version did it--thanks! [05:18] tucemiux_: whatismyip.com shows my router's ip address [05:19] hunahpu, and Losha -- Many thank you's. GRATZIIIII! [05:19] Alcor: yep, it's on auto login so i see the desktop, i think it is the compiz effects/driver issue [05:19] there is a message in the motd.. i looked in /etc/motd and it looks generated and the message doesn't appear in motd.tail.. where is it coming from? [05:19] Alcor: same freeze on live cd too, loads up, move the mouse and hard freeze [05:19] ogen: you don't need to take anything out, just shrink the video so it fits in a regular DVD; google for k9copy tutorials on how to do this, what it does is reduce the main video file quality a bit, so it fits in 4.9 dvds, you don't lose menus, subtitles or whatever it may have [05:20] kuroharab, yup yup that is what you use to connect the outside world to your pc, is your router configured correctly to route traffic to your machine? [05:20] I have a logitech quickcam communicate stx [05:20] hmm, i guess not :P [05:20] im having a problem with getting stuff from my media server to my desktop. can anyone help please im getting a "cannot allocate memory" error when i try to transfer stuff over the network. [05:20] tucemiux_: because if i try to connect to the ip address of my router it is just giving me the web interface for my router [05:20] drleper2000 when u login with ur usr id, stop and look at bottom of screen. Do not input passwd as yet. [05:20] ok hunahpu but I think I can lose the Chinese version. -- AND -- you have given me an alternative in case the video of all versions are one file and not two. [05:21] ogen, I have a logitech quickcam communicate stx [05:21] ogen: I hope it works for you, good luck [05:21] Alcor: i've got autologin turned on from the install.... [05:21] kuroharab, you need to configure your router to connect to your machine, that'll be $15.99 [05:21] drleper2000 sry [05:22] tucemiux_: mighty expensive ... i think i can figure it out myself :P [05:22] yup yup [05:22] kuroharab, FYI [05:22] most ISP block port 80 [05:22] block port 80 ??? [05:22] drleper2000 Between the usr id part and the passwd you could have selected the Gnome pulldown at [05:22] yup yup [05:22] im having a problem with getting stuff from my media server to my desktop. can anyone help please im getting a "cannot allocate memory" error when i try to transfer stuff over the network. [05:23] um [05:23] and port 22 === djungelkraem_ is now known as djungelkraem [05:23] tucemiux_: well, the reason i ask is on windows if i go to whatismyip.com it doesn't give me my router's ip it gives an ip to my actual PC behind the router and you could just go to that in a browser and it would work [05:23] what si the reasoning for blocking port 80? my firefox might run on that port [05:23] what runs on 80? [05:23] drleper2000 the bottom of the screen and selected Gnome safe... [05:23] Willy26: What are you using to transfer over the network? [05:23] port 80 is www though === christian is now known as Guest13892 [05:24] i just go to network and there is the "server" it has all my music movies and files. its kinda like a big computer. Like 2TB worth. [05:24] Alcor: ahhh ok, ill have to reinstall and turn of auto login, then do safe login from there, thanks! [05:24] kuroharab, sounds like your "router" gives you a routable IP, either way Ive told you more than enough and we are going off topic here [05:24] ogen, I have a logitech quickcam communicate stx [05:25] tucemiux_: okay i'll figure it out... thanks for the help [05:25] Sk_Lg, rtfm [05:25] k [05:25] Willy26: I mean, did you already share them from the server? [05:25] And what is the server running? [05:25] tucemiux_: you mean isp will block port 80 on a client machine so it cant act as a webserver on that port? [05:26] kuroharab, no problem, if you have any more problems feel free to come back and ask again, be specific [05:26] kuroharab, you can also try #ubuntu-offtopic [05:26] drleper2000, correct! welcome to the real world [05:27] !rtfm > tucemiux_ [05:27] tucemiux_, please see my private message [05:27] tucemiux_: haha lose the attitude bro [05:27] tucemiux_: just clarifying what you meant [05:27] i guess so, when i used to do it with windows it would ask me for a password before i would even try to connect to the thing. Now that im full ubuntu install it doesn't ask me and i have full viewing of the drive, no pass is required. I have no idea where to enter that on ubuntu, windows used to be just that little pop up box if u know what im talking about [05:28] drleper2000, i feel the same way though sorry it had to be me to break you the good news but there is a workaround, just dont use port 80 or port 22, you can do that in your router [05:29] tucemiux, could you link me a site to read then, because I should change it then [05:30] tucemiux_: huh? im just trying to fix a graphics problem mate, i understand ports/servers. peace out. [05:30] muskask8, you have a logitech quickcam communicate stx - you said - and you want to use it with skype. As I said there is some page that shows you what webcams work with what, and which "sort of work". You can go google it. I also used Ubuntuforums.org which is a great resource. I use it a lot. And I use it before I come here most all the time. Good luck in finding that your webcam works. PS you prolly will need the model number too. Isnt the logitech site great! [05:31] Sk_Lg, that is old news, you can bing it, ISP's block port 80 and port 22, you can use other ports in your router if you want to host a web or ssh server [05:31] tucemiux_: Could you please be less condescending when offering help [05:32] tucemiux_: if you don't feel like answering questions then don't [05:32] I am trying to find the source for sys_getpid to edit it; however, all the documentation I can find does place it in the place they say it is. Does anyone know where it is located in 2.6.31? [05:32] IdleOne, what are you talking about, im giving people the facts, pursuing it further and further is going offtopic [05:32] tucemiux_: telling people to rtfm,google or in this case to bing it, is not acceptable in any ubuntu channels [05:33] !offtopic | IdleOne [05:33] IdleOne: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [05:33] tucemiux_: trying to deflect the topic is not helping you [05:33] im having a problem with getting stuff from my media server to my desktop. can anyone help please im getting a "cannot allocate memory" error when i try to transfer stuff over the network. [05:33] tucemiux_: I am not disputing the facts you are giving I am disputing the manner in which you are giving them. [05:34] tucemiux_: plain and simple. You are being rude. [05:35] muskask8, I found the page WHEW -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeWebCams Good luck in finding that your webcam works. PS you prolly will need the model number too. Isnt the logitech site great! [05:35] maybe im having permissions issue?? anyone know? [05:35] ,/28 [05:36] Willy26, that error doesnt sound feasible when youre just copying stuff from one place to another, can you be a little more descriptive of the problem? [05:36] cya guys [05:36] and girls [05:36] later [05:36] How do i set up xchat so that it automatically loads a specific server and channel when i open it? [05:37] Losha, tucemiux_ well it seems to have decomressed it correctly because I did the md5sum check and all files are a o k a y [05:37] how the burnt cd works [05:37] Preacher, configure it under "Favorite channels" [05:37] Preacher: http://xchat.org/faq/#q23 [05:37] hope* [05:37] muskask8, I found the page (a google search didnt do it. I had to go into my bookmarks) -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeWebCams [05:38] ok thank you [05:38] Anyone have suggestions for syncing config files across 3 ubuntu computers? (things like preferences / mail accounts for evolution, etc) [05:38] Preacher: click on Xchat menu and go to Network List. click on the network, click Edit and then check the box for connect on startup [05:39] justinlilly, you can just sync the config folders in your home directory [05:39] ummm ok... i have a 2TB media server connected to my network im trying to pull a file that is 306MB it will start and ill get about 30MB of it before it pauses and says "cannot allocate memory" when i click the details tab. I can do small files just fine like pictures and music files, but one great file it just wont do it. [05:39] I have a laptop and a netbook, both webcams work, however I cannot chat between them with any client. Suggestions? [05:40] justinlilly, 3 computers? unison will sync your files, will probably sync with 3 computers but youll have to be careful, you might have to tinker with it if you want to sync your preferences though [05:40] the file is a .rar and ive got wine all ready installed all i need to do is pull the file. [05:40] Willy26: Is there another machine to test it with? Or only one? [05:40] IdleOne: thanks [05:40] i only have Ubuntu on this computer [05:41] i got rid of windows all together [05:41] Willy26: Is there a way to ssh or ftp into this server? [05:41] Willy26: ssh preferably. [05:42] not sure how to do that, but if i connect to the servers webpage threw the ip address i think there is an FTP option. I dont understand why if its a big file its like it lags out and disconnects from the server but a small files will come quick. [05:43] help please with fstab... cannot auto mount ntfs partitions .... keep getting a ntfs-3g error [05:43] Willy26: Ok... do you know if the server is running ssh? [05:43] I have this cam and this page says it just works. I know it works in cheese but I can't get it to do it in skype, any clues? [05:44] anyone? [05:44] I'm about to install Lucid Beta 2, and I have two HDD. Would it be beneficial to mount my current /home/USER directory on a partition on one of the HDD and install Lucid on the other? [05:45] kfizz: config files vs. the 2 versions might be different / cause issues. [05:45] Ah, didn't think about that... [05:45] hmm... nope. lol its just like an external drive only its connected to the network and i just set permissions for who to use it. [05:45] kfizz, i installed lucid on a secondary hard drive to try it out, karmic is in another hard drive and i use mainly [05:46] tucemiux_, I think I'll do that. [05:46] Willy26: Ok, gotcha. Well in that case. Try saving it to a different directory for now. I am going to do some research. [05:47] quick question - it's been a long time - does undernet register nicks? [05:47] drtomdanger: you're on freenode right now, which does. [05:47] drtomdanger: might want to check on undernet [05:47] haha, i just realized. [05:47] heh [05:47] sorry. [05:47] Crucialhoax: yea i been trying to save it to the desktop ill try to save it elseware [05:48] running gnome in 9.1 i'm using xchat with the uber script - better alternatives? [05:48] drtomdanger, thats ok, you should use the xchat client XChat 2.8.6 [05:48] drtomdanger: I'm using irssi, which seems to do well enough. Its a console app. [05:49] Another GUI alternative is smuxi, which wasn't horrible. [05:49] i saw irssi - customizable but still console. i like the mirc feel of xchat. hard to find scripts for it though. [05:50] drtomdanger: what's wrong with console? [05:50] drtomdanger: there are a ton of scrips for irssi.. [05:50] Willy26: Any specifics to the error? [05:50] drtomdanger: themes too.. [05:50] nothing at all. i just wanted something point and click to sit open on a vdesktop. [05:50] scripts* [05:51] drtomdanger: maybe try smuxi? Konversation is also decent (if you don't mind that its Qt) [05:52] sidenote: if you have a 360, do you stream media with ushare? [05:52] crucialhoax: no, its just it will start and ill got like 30mb of the .rar, i just opened it and i get some of the files. just after that it just stops transfering [05:52] is ubuntu.com down for anyone else or just me? [05:52] actually nevermind [05:52] Optimus55: downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ubuntu.com [05:52] downforeveryone is a great website - funny thing is? i've never had it respond that, yes, it is down for everyone. [05:53] Willy26: Lets try the wget command. `wget -c -v ` [05:53] thanks brotha [05:53] it's always just me. [05:53] drtomdanger: then its always you. I've seen it say that w/r/t twitter. [05:53] crucialhoax: in terminal [05:53] ? [05:53] Willy26: Sorry, yes === Podfish is now known as OPOP [05:55] Willy26: Paste the output of that command to paste.ubuntu.com please, if it fails. [05:56] i don't have good download speed.. wat's the best download accelerator for linux.. and specially for ubuntu ? [05:56] HELLO [05:56] for firefox? can the file be torrented? [05:57] !hello | lanclin [05:57] lanclin: 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! [05:57] im guessing this is it... `wget -c -v ` [05:57] rameshwor: If you are using Firefox it has many plugins used for that feature [05:57] @rameshwor? [05:57] my ubuntu panel is missing [05:57] it didnt work though [05:57] please advice [05:57] crucialhoax: like..? [05:57] Willy26: I thought you said it was running a website? and you accessed it via IP? [05:57] lanclin, how it is missing?? [05:58] rameshwor: Do not know off the top of my head, but I know have it on there plugins page :) [05:58] no i can access the thing from its webpage... ya know 192.168.0.1 like a router. [05:58] crucialhoax: ok.. i'll take a look at it [05:58] i don't find the panel where i can switch applications [05:58] #hackworld [05:58] rameshwor: there's an addon called "downthemall" [05:58] the settings only, like set permissions [05:58] how can i enter this channel [05:59] of who can access it. [05:59] Willy26: Oh, ok. Well what 'didn't work'? [05:59] drtomdanger: ok.. [05:59] lanclin, that means the down panel [05:59] yes [05:59] u r correct [05:59] other than that threw the network i can see it like a regular computer. [05:59] rameshwor: What are you trying to download and from where? "download accelerators" only help if the server on the other end is slow, in which case it's impolite to hit the server harder and slow everyone else down more. [05:59] how can i connect to this channel ? #hackworld [05:59] lanclin, is the whole panel missing or the application switching app [05:59] it didnt do anything.? [06:00] rameshwor: true, if you have a slow internet connection a download accelerator won't help. [06:00] mzawieska: /join #hackworld [06:00] bash: command substitution: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' [06:00] bash: command substitution: line 1: `wget -c -v ' [06:00] Willy26: Do not use the <> lol sorry for lack of specification. [06:00] whole panel is missing, currently i only have the up panel [06:00] ok lol [06:00] how do you specifically target a user name? so it says [06:00] lanclin: So right click the top panel and choose new panel [06:00] username: [06:00] at the beginning... [06:01] Jordan_U: at least it'll increase some speed by many connectoins . won't it ? [06:01] lanclin, ok to add a down panel right click on the up panel and click add new panel [06:01] ok [06:01] done [06:01] ok now i get Unsupported scheme [06:01] Jordan_U: something like interne downlaoad manage in windoz .. it used to boost up the speed nicely.. [06:01] gots a question [06:01] lanclin, did the panel come?? [06:01] lanclin: Now right click on the new panel and choose properties, then move it where you want it. [06:02] it wont copy cause the file is a .rar and it knows its not supported, so it wont even try to copy it? [06:02] crucialhoax, actually the new panel comes at the bottom [06:02] rameshwor: Yes, at the cost of other users. It's incredibly selfish to allot yourself more than your share of a server's bandwidth because you think your time is more important than that of others... [06:02] lanclin: Did your open windows appear on the bottom panel? What other items were on the bottom panel? [06:02] gots me a question [06:03] rameshwor: And in most cases there are mirrors you can use instead. [06:03] !ask > TyanColte [06:03] TyanColte, please see my private message [06:03] Hey guys I'm trying to get the 7.04 server iso but the link is broken on the ubuntu site is there anywhere else you know of? [06:03] I just have the panel down [06:03] Jordan_U: yeah .. but i do it only while downloading some stuffs for my studies. [06:03] max_: search for a torrent of it in google. [06:03] Willy26: Ok, that is better information then "cannot allocate memory" lol does it have to be a .rar? [06:03] max_: Why do you want 7.04? [06:03] max_, why would you want to use the 7.04 server?? it's oudated [06:03] I have opened multiplr application [06:03] lanclin, now right click the bottom panel and click "add to panel" [06:03] but not able to see those info in panel [06:03] for some reason when my monitor goes off after a while, i turn it back on and my wifi is hardware blocked in rfkill list the only thing i can do to reset it is restart my computer, any ideas? [06:04] I just want to mess around with it, but I'm having trouble finding an active torrent [06:04] ok [06:04] Isn't there somewhere that hosts all the linux distros [06:04] lanclin, for the show desktop button add show desktop [06:04] I feel like that would be important just for nostalgic reasons [06:04] max_: Just so that you understand that there are many *known* and serious security vulnerabilities in 7.04... [06:04] max_, i dont think 7.04 is supported anymore, 8.04 is LTS and pretty soon it's going to be lucid [06:05] for application switcher go to the bottom and add swith applications using button and for the windows switcher add the windows switcher app [06:05] Jordan_U, ya I know thats why I'm getting it [06:05] well i had some music, pictures, and some documents on my windows desktop. I made a .rar of it and moved it to my server. Thinking when i put full ubuntu install on i can just pull it back and use wine. So i could try to extract the .rar on the server and then pull the regular .jpgs, .pdf .mp3 ? [06:06] max_: old-releases.ubuntu.com, please don't use it on a computer with data you care about. [06:06] i just got the show desktop button but did not get the opened application details [06:06] max_, nostalgia is not supported in #ubuntu, you can try #ubuntu-offtopic , someone in there **might** have what youre looking for [06:06] Jordan_U, ya I know of course I went there first but the link is broken [06:06] nebody? [06:06] ranjan [06:06] Alright, I have a weird help request [06:06] how can we get that [06:06] Willy26: Make a backup copy of that .rar file. Then with the BACKUP copy, compress it as a .tar.gz or .zip [06:07] lanclin, what happened?? [06:07] I need to compile uriparser, but I can't boot into Ubuntu in order to do it or else I'm going to have to spend the next week getting Windoze to work again [06:07] lanclin: I believe it is the `window list` applet [06:07] lanclin, is everything ok?? [06:07] crucialhoax: ok ill try that [06:08] Willy26: Just make sure you back it up! Please. [06:08] lanclin, are you there?? [06:08] J_Litewski, you mean you cant boot into ubuntu? [06:09] lanclin, add the "window list" to panel [06:09] yep, got it :-) Thanks Ranjan [06:09] I can boot into Ubuntu, but if I try to boot back into Windows I get a BSOD, and I need Windows for Applications for school or else I would just use Ubuntu [06:09] lanclin, ok :) you re new to irc isnt it?? [06:09] thank you very much [06:10] max_: i looked, but you're right - the torrents are sparse. [06:10] yes [06:10] lanclin, while talking to someone in IRC please first type the name of the person you are talking to [06:10] J_Litewski, use a windows CD to fix your windows installation then reinstall grub [06:10] lanclin, that will make the person your are talking to see your messages better [06:10] how do i install program for Wine? especially http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=614 [06:11] lanclin, now just try that [06:11] tucemiux: it's not that, it's because my RAM is failing [06:11] Ranjan, ok going forward I will do that [06:12] lanclin, great :) thats good...you have covered the basic step in IRC [06:12] Ranjan, going forward i will do that [06:12] i'm building a tv pc that's going to go on a 56 inch tv, but i'm back and forth on amd vs intel [06:12] J_Litewski, if your RAM is failing then the solution is to change your RAM, I would back up my files if I was you [06:12] i'm pretty sure i want to go quad core, phenom or i7 [06:12] tucemiux: can't afford it atm [06:12] anybody have anything to say about my question? [06:12] positive experiences or horror stories either way? [06:12] lanclin, another thing is that i hope you are using xchat. [06:13] I want to buy a new laptop [06:13] any recommendations? [06:13] TyanColte, if nobody knows the answer they will not reply, you can ask again, all in one line -- at different times, you can also try the forum [06:13] Ranjan, yes [06:13] mac [06:13] my gf is cheating on me. I need help how to view privet facebook. To see if she really cheating. I need help [06:13] for some reason when my monitor goes off after a while, i turn it back on and my wifi is hardware blocked in "rfkill list" the only thing i can do to reset it is restart my computer, any ideas? [06:13] tucemiux: I got it running good now and I'm going to try and keep it that way until I can put in better RAM, but until then, I'm stuck in Windoze 7 [06:13] privet profile on facebook [06:13] can some1 help me with it? [06:13] gantrixx, any laptop that wasn't released in the past 6 months should be fine, I would go for a netbook from dell if you want mobility [06:13] mzawieska: not really the channel for that [06:14] yea I know [06:14] now that im waiting on that to copy. it seems to be copying just fine, it pauses sometimes but it continues.... What would be a good program to host my movies to my PS3? I used to use TVersity with windows, or PS3 Server. What can be used for ubuntu? [06:14] drtomdanger: AMD vs Intel, hmm. I go with the processor that works for you, not based on benchmark tests. If it will run quite and cool, that is my choice whether it is AMD or Intel. It is just a brand [06:14] mzawieska: That is both offtopic and immoral. You won't get help with that here. [06:14] instead of typing the whole name...hit the tab key to auto complete the name :) [06:14] TyanColte: does it happen over time if you prevent the monitor from going to sleep? are you sure the monitor sleep call is what is causing the block? [06:14] I already have a netbook [06:14] I'd like a real computer [06:14] Willy26: maybe Mythbuntu? then have the PS3 connect to the machine. I really do not know tho =/ [06:14] gantrixx: I have a gateway NV52 series, great laptop but replace the RAM in it as soon as you get it [06:14] drtomdanger: not sure, all i know is if i leave my computer alone running ubuntu 9.10 long enough it will turn off my wifi card to save power i assume and it cant' turn back on [06:14] ranjan, I am getting late to office,,, thanks again bye [06:15] I'm not sure that I'm really hip on Dell's customer service or their fake "we listen to the Linux Community" slogan [06:15] crucialhoax: that's exactly my dilemma. I bought an amd many years back that had a hardware confliction with my mobo and gp which left a sorrow taste regarding compatibility, but i know i can get the most for my money going amd. [06:15] gantrixx, i would go for a laptop that has a year or more in the market [06:15] J_Litewski: You can run windows in a virtual machine under Ubuntu. [06:15] yay virtual box [06:15] ill write that down thx, damn i just got an can allocate memory error at 50% done this time.... [06:15] a year or more? [06:15] drtomdanger: AMD is not bad at all. I had one a few years back in a mediocre gaming machine and it ran very well. [06:15] gantrixx, typically you want to check the compability with linux on the sound card and video card that comes with the laptop [06:15] my netbook didn't have that long on the market [06:15] just coping from the same drive [06:16] Jordan_U: true, but I don't want to re-pay for the software I have downloaded on this install [06:16] Willy26: Copying the .tar.gz? [06:16] i've been thinking about making ubuntu my primary OS but if i can't get all the kinks worked out it'll never be [06:16] gantrix Get a mac laptop - then you will be just like ubuntu [06:16] no i was still making a backup on the same drive to a different folder it did it.... [06:16] TyanColte: It sounds like the wifi card will not come out of sleep. Is there a bug filed for this? [06:16] TyanColte, i still use windows to sync files with my phone, just use a dual boot [06:17] i think so, but i havn't seen anything else about it [06:17] Willy26: How full is this drive? I am assuming not very full.. [06:17] tucemiux_: i've got a dual boot with ubuntu with wubi on my laptop. But it only uses a max of 30GB [06:17] i think i'm going to do the amd. it's just cheaper - money talks. [06:18] J_Litewski: If you know what area of the RAM is bad you could try the "badram" command in grub2. [06:18] TyanColte: Meh, that could be why right there. Wubi is nothing but trouble. If you want to try Ubuntu just use the live cd or usb stick. [06:18] no its 2TB max and i barely have maybe 30GB [06:18] Willy26: Has the network went down before? Any sudden disconnects on that drive? [06:18] i've done the whole dual partition thing, i don't like it, wubi allows me to have full access to my hardware and keeping the windows bootloader [06:19] TyanColte: The live cd does not touch the harddrive... [06:19] Jordan_U: wish I could, but I don't think I have grub2 as my bootloader, I think it's the orignal [06:19] i dont know it seems like sometimes its there and sometimes its not... i have a feeling it keeps going out of sync per-say. [06:19] Is anyone running Ubuntu on a Dell Studio 15? [06:19] i understand that but you are restricted to the speed of your cd rom drive [06:19] hello friends,I'm struggling to set static IP for one pc in my network.I got success to achive static IP but my internet is not working. How can I solve this problem? [06:19] inspiron 600m [06:20] crucialhoax: i meant to direct that last one to you [06:20] thats why smaller files come before it syncs out and large ones pause and go and pause and go and then die... [06:20] are you in the right domain? [06:20] crucialhoax: "i understand that but you are restricted to the speed of your cd rom drive" to requote [06:20] how can i boot while keeping the drive in read only mode? [06:20] Willy26: So this harddrive is just network storage right? Its not a computer? [06:21] crucialhoax: yep [06:21] TyanColte: True, but if you want to see if the suspend issue persists, I would see if it does it while in a live environment. [06:21] apctr: do you have the proper gateway? [06:21] Willy26: Maybe disconnect the drive from the network and try again, I am really not sure man =[ [06:22] HAI [06:22] yes. [06:22] Jordan_U: I also think the bad ram is within the video-used space of the RAM because the video sometimes corrupts without a BSOD [06:22] drtomdanger: yes [06:22] crucialhoax: technically a wubi installation IS a live environment the only thing that differs is a virutal hard drive [06:23] Who abouts is the task_struct source located? (I'm running 2.6.31-20) Or is there a way I can find that out for myself? [06:23] crucialhoax: ok thx for your help ill try to extract it on the drive and try pulling it little by little, its going to suck though hosting movies on the ps3 if this is the case, i hope i wont have the same problem, maybe its just its a .rar for the reason being. [06:23] top reports: "96,7%wa." What does 'wa' stand for? [06:23] Willy26: It could be a bad network cable, or a shoddy connection somewhere. Basics first, always. [06:24] crucialhoax: i am wireless... lol [06:24] J_Litewski: You should really find out what exactly is happening with memtest86, it even has an option to create parameters for linux's badram feature (and is the exact same syntax as is used with grub2's badram). [06:24] Willy26: But that harddrive has a wired connection right? [06:24] crucialhoax: yep [06:24] Willy26: My point exactly... [06:25] Jordan_U: Memtest86+ shuts itself off at ~65% first pass [06:25] crucialhoax: see what i mean? [06:25] crucialhoax: yea ok thx have a good night [06:25] tried three times [06:25] Willy26: Peace. [06:26] hi everyone my grub got messed up how do i fix it from the live cd? [06:26] crucialhoax: ya still with me? [06:26] TyanColte: Yes, but it seems that Wubi has not gotten its stuff right yet. [06:27] !grub2 | KruyKaze [06:27] KruyKaze: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [06:27] crucialhoax: it's getting very close, i mean i've seen no difference in performance between a partition install and a wubi install with the exception of grub not being in the way, i detest grub [06:27] alright, now I know I have grub1, since I've had Ubuntu since it was 9.04 [06:28] TyanColte: There are ways to have Windows and Linux on the same drive... Sometimes painful tho. [06:28] i found a solution to using internal webcam and mic online !!!!!! [06:28] crucialhoax: wubi is the least painful of all ways and it is the easiest [06:28] I have been having some weird problem with rsync lately. I posted in the forums a few days ago, and have yet to hear anything. I am open to any possible ideas... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9129382#post9129382 [06:28] z3r0-c001, solution?

[06:30] hello friends,I'm struggling to set static IP for one pc in my network.I got success to achive static IP but my internet is not working. How can I solve this problem? [06:30] switch10_: As you stated, try rsynching to a non-linked location, see if it does it.

[06:38] TyanColte: ubottu Just stated that Grub2 is default since 9.10... [06:38] how come my installation is still using the old version of grub? [06:38] !cn | lei [06:38] lei: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [06:38] grub2 is default on 9.10 unless you upgraded [06:38] i did a clean install [06:38] TyanColte: Maybe cuz its a Wubi? [06:38] doubtful, i get the same features on a wubi install that everybody else does on a normal install [06:39] TyanColte: I just like to blame wubi ;] [06:39] swithch10_: i added the ppa but i'm not getting mobiledevice to show up - any thoughts? [06:39] Hello, world! [06:39] obviously, don't hate it because it's an insanely easy install [06:39] :P [06:40] drtomdanger: so you added the repository and did sudo apt-get update? [06:40] is there anyone, who can help me for setting my own local repository? [06:41] i guess i'm just oing to have to do a "sudo apt-get install grub2" [06:41] top reports: "96,7%wa." What does 'wa' stand for? [06:41] drtomdanger: they may have changed the repository... ill check, one sec. [06:41] not that that will solve my wifi hardware problem [06:42] switch10_: i have libmobiledevice0 installed... [06:42] bullgard4: iowait [06:42] drtomdanger: ohh ok. were there any that didn't install? [06:42] anybody have any other suggestions about my original problem? [06:43] how do i find out where game files are installed? [06:43] TyanColte: Lots of problems with grub2 and Wubi it seems. Maybe that is why the used an old version? [06:43] crucialhoax: interesting, maybe they know something that we don't :P [06:43] switch10_: making some progress - will update you in a few. [06:43] Mine Ubuntu9.10. one of my user accounts crashed. Need to move files into another account and delete the crashed account. How to do? Pl help [06:43] TyanColte: Possible. Lots of forums threads and bug reports. [06:44] drtomdanger: ok, let me know how it goes.. [06:44] is there any way to migrate a wubi installation to a physical partition? [06:45] like maybe using gparted or another partition manager [06:45] gogu: in a terminal type `mkdir ~/Backup` then do `sudo cp -a /home/ /home//Backup [06:46] crucialhoax: I did not find a definition for "iowait" in English I only found a definition for "iowait" in French: "* Correspond au temps d'attente du système pour l'écriture ou la lecture de données. Un IOwait de 10 % signifie que 10% de l'activité du CPU n ..." (fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iowait)." Can you tell me what is meant by "iowait" in English, please? [06:47] i highly doubt that wubi is the problem with my wifi i've had it working in older versions of kubuntu with wubi installations [06:47] bullgard4: Amount of time the CPU has been waiting for I/O to complete. <--- from man top [06:47] TyanColte: Wubi broke my Windows sound... its just a weird instance of testing. [06:48] Crucialhoax, will try and get back. Am an absolute beginner. [06:48] gogu: No problem, take your time :) [06:48] gotta go, WoW time :P [06:48] crucialhoax: Excellent! (Sorry that I did not look up 'man top'.) -- Thank you for your help. [06:48] Logrotate config question: Can I specify both "daily" and "size 50M"? Will it AND them or OR them? [06:49] bullgard4: man top | grep wa is what I used. No problem :) [06:49] I have a laptop and a netbook, both webcams work, however I cannot chat between them with any client. Suggestions? [06:50] is there anyone, who can help me for setting my own local repository for ubuntu? [06:52] switch10_: i'm rebooting now, will let you know how it goes. [06:54] I have an external hard disk which has ntfs file system and I run ubuntu on my laptop with ext4 ... i want to use my external hdd as a back up so I am planning to write rsync script.. but will rsync script work if destination( ntfs hdd ) is destination [06:55] roark: rsync should work regardless of destination hdd [06:55] filesystem [06:55] ZeeshanQ: cool thanks [06:55] but wont it loose some of the meta data in the files [06:55] roark: Will it be specific folders or a whole system? [06:56] I'm trying to boot from a live CD, but it hangs on the logo screen. If I press to see "under" the logo, I just see stdin: error 0 [06:56] crucialhoax: i was planning to backup full home and some of /etc folders [06:56] The CD is ok, as it can boot up another of my computers [06:56] crucialhoax: not the entire system [06:56] crucialhoax: will it make any difference [06:56] and it ran on this computer no less than 2-3 hours ago === tom_ is now known as drtomdanger [06:57] roark i suggest u use tar tor to preserve the meta data like the permissions ans so on [06:57] switch10_: holy hell - nice job man! [06:57] drtomdanger: hey glad it worked for ya!! [06:57] drtomdanger: spread the word... [06:57] roark: No difference, but read this: http://articles.slicehost.com/2007/10/10/rsync-exclude-files-and-folders <--- made rsync much easier. [06:58] to the room - switch10_'s tut on getting the ipod touch recognized in ubuntu 9.1 is an unbelievable yes. worked like a charm - rhythmbox took a second to recognize, but once i saw it in my "places" menu it loaded right up. [06:58] crucialhoax: nice link but it doesnt say anything about different filesystems [06:58] crucialhoax: ? [06:58] crucialhoax, both my accounts are on same partition. Because of less space it is not backingup. How can I create backup on another partition or USB disk? [06:58] *thumbs-up* to switch10_ [06:59] roark: I know that. File system is irrelevant. [06:59] switch10_: hey... i am that rsync guy... do you think our discussion still applies if the destintation hdd has ntfs file system on it [06:59] crucialhoax: cool thank you man [06:59] roark: it shouldn't matter [06:59] can I disable updates and then perform update to only specific packages? [06:59] switch10_: awesome [07:00] gogu: Do you have a usb disk handy? [07:00] roark: are you having problems with rsync? [07:00] switch10_: nope I didnt start the process yet... but was wondering if I should format the hdd to ext4 [07:00] crucialhoax. yes i have [07:00] switch10_: disadvantage with formattin is I cant share it with my friends who have windows on their comps [07:01] switch10_: apparently windows cant read ext* s [07:01] roark: if you are planning on using it with windows I would say use NTFS, possibly ext3/2 [07:01] gogu: Plug it in then let me know please. [07:01] switch10_: ya i was plannign to leave the hdd just like that with ntfs [07:01] crucialhoax, plugged in. [07:01] roark: windows can read ext2/3, but you need to install some stuff to get it to work.. [07:01] gogu: Ok, do you have a terminal open? [07:02] switch10_: ya but i dont like ext 2... i didnt know that windows can read ext3 [07:02] crucialhoax, yes [07:02] roark: you have to install some driver, I forget what it is called... [07:02] I've enabled desktop cube in compiz but the bottom and top sides are just in one color. How to make those sides transparent? [07:02] gogu: Ok, type `cd` then type `ls /media` [07:02] why does the live cd of ubuntu refuse to boot when my hard drives are plugged in and not when they are not? [07:03] roark: ah yes http://www.fs-driver.org/ [07:03] elik: because your boot order has your HDD's botting before the cd rom [07:03] switch10_: actually i have ext4 on my system.. i converted from ext3 to ext4 without unmounting the filesystem .. and now I cannot install anything on my laptop...It gives the following error message whenver I install anything files list file for package `libgtk2.0-cil' contains empty filename [07:04] crucialhoax, it displayed my disk name along with others [07:04] switch10_: so i was planning to move everything to hdd and install 10.04 [07:04] switch10_: do you know how to solve that error [07:04] switch10_: files list file for package `libgtk2.0-cil' contains empty filename [07:04] gogu: Ok, find the name of the usb disk [07:04] roark: I haven't seen it before.. have you googled it? [07:04] crucialhoax, found [07:05] crucialhoax, RAJITHA is its name [07:05] switch10_, nah nah nah, I get the first screen, and then I "try ubuntu", the logo screen shows up and then, after some time, the drive spin down. If I press I see stdin: error 0 [07:05] switch10_: I did quite a bit of googling... but none of the solutions worked...actually none of the solutions worked for quite a few ppl [07:05] gogu: Open it up and make a folder on the USB disk named Backups [07:05] switch10_: I will try asking that in the entire IRC [07:05] files list file for package `libgtk2.0-cil' contains empty filename is the error I get when I try to install something...any suggestions.. [07:06] roark: yeah do that.. I havent encountered that error.. [07:06] Where standard desktop backgrounds are located?

SATA or IDE? [07:08] switch10_, sata [07:08] need help with automounting sdb1 sdb2 which are ntfs [07:08] user123: you have a working system, so it is a secondary HDD? [07:08] please [07:09] switch10_, I think so, but I'm not so sure [07:09] switch10_, OHH I got your question, yes [07:10] user123: you need to format that drive, one way or another, so install gparted if it is not installed already: sudo apt-get gparted [07:10] switch10_, I actually have 3 hdds, one for ubuntu, one for win and the new [07:10] step135 have you formated it yet [07:10] Where abouts is the task_struct source located? (I'm running 2.6.31-20) Or is there a way I can find that out for myself? [07:10] user123: ok so you will want to access it with both windows and ubuntu right? [07:10] crucialhoax: it generated "operation not permitted" for all the files it tried to backup [07:10] switch10_, yes [07:10] sudovsroot exisiting drive with data already on it ... i can mount through places -> select drive [07:10] user123: have you installed gparted? [07:11] switch10_, yes [07:11] user123: ok open it up [07:11] user123 format it in windows partion as ntfs [07:11] gogu: you did type sudo right? [07:11] onestep135: mount your drives normally, then "cat /etc/fstab" and copy and paste the relevant sdb lines onto the end of /etc/mtab <-- works for me [07:11] thanks... fstab was giving me errors [07:12] user123: in the top right corner of gparted you should see a menu box thing, click on the arrow and select your new drive. [07:12] mtab is this the right way to go ? just curious from any others [07:12] is there anyone, who can help me for setting my own local repository for ubuntu? [07:12] onestep135: be mindful that it may not mount if the windows shutdown was unclean or whatever. :) [07:13] k [07:13] Morning.. [07:13] switch10_, its taking to long for the program to respond. It says "searching for partitions" [07:13] user123: just let it go... [07:13] switch10_, ok [07:14] user123: a 1.5TB drive is large pretty big. let me know when it is done.. [07:14] not sure cat /etc/fstab to mtab is going to work [07:14] switch10_: this is correct right? `sudo cp -a /home/ /media//Backups` [07:14] switch10_, allright [07:15] crucialhoax: huh? [07:15] onestep135: noes, you cat it to find your sdb1 or 2 or whatever, and you copy only those lines and paste on the end of the current mtab [07:15] switch10_: I am helping someone and that command returned `Operation not permitted` [07:15] cd [07:15] user123: ok, it says unallocated space? [07:15] switch10_, still working... [07:16] any good programs for streaming home videos and music on laptop elsewhere [07:16] from desktop [07:16] sudovsroot: sip communicator? [07:16] crucialhoax: yeah that looks fine to me. unless the usb drive has weird permissions... [07:16] thanks nijverheid, i understand but the partitions are not showing up in fstab once mounted within ubuntu [07:16] sudovsroot: not used it myself, but it's supposed to be able to do that sort of thing :) [07:17] ahhh. [07:17] where can i get it from [07:17] sudovsroot: http://sip-communicator.org/ [07:17] used to use orb when i ran windows [07:18] user123: is it still working on it?? [07:19] switch10_, yes :S [07:19] On my netbook -- running 9.10 desktop -- how do I make the bottom of windows show? Sometimes Ok.. and Save.. are hidden ;[ [07:20] crucialhoax: alt+left mouse click + drag :) [07:20] switch10_, its done but the drive is not listed [07:20] switch10_, I will restart the computer and make sure it is properly connected... [07:20] user123: hmm... yes, also make sure your power supply can handle it... [07:20] any reason why partitions on sdb - sdb0, sdb1, sdb2 would not show up in storage device manager ( PySDM)? [07:21] switch10_: That will move the window? [07:21] switch10_, it should. Its a 700W PS [07:21] crucialhoax: yesir [07:22] switch10_: I will have to try that next time I boot it. Last time I was auto-hiding the bottom panel. [07:22] how can I reconfigure my ubuntu to enable back compiz?? [07:22] crucialhoax: only some folders and files were backedup. not all files [07:22] crucialhoax: yeah, certain programs do that to me to. but alt+drag works great. [07:22] I got Intel 4 Series video card [07:23] switch10_: Thanks! [07:23] crucialhoax: np [07:23] When booting on LiveCD is working... the compiz but the one I installed.. not working [07:23] This happens after I changed the motherboard of my PC from previous Nvidia built-in card to Intel X4500 or Intel 4 Series [07:24] gogu: Ok.

I just loaded ubuntu 10.04. Ext4 filesystem is default in the partition manager. I've heard that ext3 is typically better, so has this changed? Is ext4 better now? [08:39] geoffb : yes like ipconfig /flushdns in Windows [08:39] mayblum: what I said up there... 'sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart' is the equivalent for linux of 'ipconfig /flushdns' on windows [08:39] Hi all, i have opened 4 to 5 gnome-terminals in my desktop, and is there any way to bring all the terminals front with a sigle key combination ? === zz_Darky is now known as Darky [08:40] _GoRDoN_, how would I go about that though, i keep getting errrors; Can't load /opt/zimbra/data/clamav/db/daily.cld: Malformed database [08:41] sham_. u can check it on synaptic package manager >>setting>>repositories [08:42] geoffb : nscd is not there in my /etc/init.d [08:42] <_GoRDoN_> AdvoWork: Have you tried reinstalling clamav?

Yes, you're right, it's not installed by default on ubuntu... I wonder... is nscd the thing that caches, or just the thing that flushes.... [08:44] geoffb :::: hhahahahahaha [08:44] _GoRDoN_, yeah ive tried, following: http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/ClamAV_-_Updating_clamd_for_releases_earlier_than_ZCS_5.0.16 [08:44] but as said, I keep getting errors in the logs [08:45] answering my own question here... nscd is 'name service cache daemon'. it's the thing that's caching. I'm assuming that means that if nscd isn't running, dns resolutions aren't being cached and you don't have anything to flush mayblum marvin2 [08:45] geoffb: nscd is a generic name-service-caching-daemon [08:46] geoffb: exactly. [08:46] mayblum: what makes you think that you need to flush the resolver cache? are you having some sort of problem with nameservice/resolution, or is this just an habitual thing for you? :-) [08:46] does anybody know how to stop mysql from starting at startup each time ?

[08:49] SandGorgon, not really [08:49] mayblum: unless this is a problem that persists, I'd just ignore it. That's just as likely to be a timeout in resolution... the site may have slow dns or something, and your box gave up trying to resolve the first time before it got an answer back from a suitably authoritative nameserver. [08:49] mayblum: caches (where they exist) tend to pretty much take care of cleaning themselves up. if this is a one-off for you, I'd ignore it. if it becomes a regular problem, then start to look into it then [08:50] beij, oh.. I just want to disable mysql from starting until I actually need it.. I'm on a old machine. I used to use sysv-rc-conf, but it no longer works for services which are now started by upstart [08:50] geoffb: i am tired [08:50] SandGorgon: update-rc.d ? does that work?

From the man page: "update-rc.d - install and remove System-V style init script links" [08:57] Zaiden: yes that's flash alpha [08:57] SandGorgon: this doesn't mess with mysql/mysqld at all, it ONLY changes (adds/removes) the auto-start script from /etc/init.d, /etc/rc*.d [08:57] Zaiden: I'm sorry If you are having problems with that, there is no option left [08:58] geoffb, ahh...thanks [08:58] Zaiden: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree this is installing 32bit flash on ubuntu 64bit with a wrapper [08:59] need help installing openvpn [08:59] ayam_jago: sudo apt-get install openvpn [08:59] ./etc/init.d/openvpn start [08:59] alwas fail [08:59] always* [09:00] ayam_jago: post the errors to pastebin (see /var/log/) [09:01] Do you think getting a pci soundcard would fix the issue?

And avast 4 is old stuff, altough some country sites still have Avast 4. Whatever though [09:52] is it possible to tell how long you've been logged in? [09:52] but avast 4 being old isn't the end of the world theadmin, as long as they support it for definition upgrades [09:52] so no informed info about avast updates?

[10:27] Weed37 you need to go into the BIOS and make the USB the Primary Master and correct the BOOT SEQUENCE.

[10:32] copy JayNutti, roger, over and out try bravo, sony, stud, macro, bingo, john :D [10:32] Weed37 anytime you install a default OS you need to make that drive the first in line in the BIOS boot sequence. It is possible that it is seeing XP first. [10:32] weed37: it sounds like you are at least getting to grub and then grub tries to boot using an unsupported config. you need to change the vbe mode. in grub highlight the kernel line and press "e" to edit then from google get a lower vbe code and edit or append that line in grub [10:33] how to control the maximum files to be copied simaltieasly in nauilus .... and to enqueue files to be copied ????

[10:34] 500gig === PhilippeD_ is now known as PhilippeD [10:34] but my ext is 40 [10:34] hello all [10:34] Weed37 why not just split up the 500gig and then Dual Boot. [10:34] any ideas? [10:35] yeah was thinking same thisg [10:35] thing* [10:35] The ext is your second partition? [10:35] no [10:35] going to check german channels ... so not beothering you with my abstruse english ;)) [10:35] Curly_Q, its not a hdd issue its a cfx issue [10:36] gfx* [10:36] Splitting up the logical partitions sometimes works for good reasons e.g., spammers flooding email. The partition will not allow overflows of spam etc. [10:37] Having a good size SWAP partition is good too. [10:38] o.O [10:38] Weed37 have you created a RESCUE disk? [10:39] weed37, can you see the post output of your ubuntu usb startup disc? when booting? [10:39] yes madshaun1984 [10:39] using Lucid Lynx and for the first time I consider Linux a competitive to mac or windows ... good job :) but I hope 10.10 wont be a disaster because of drop of compiz and the gnome-shell [10:40] so when you boot into the live pen you can see it right up to the ubuntu login screen? [10:40] !lucid > dr3mro [10:40] dr3mro, please see my private message [10:40] madshaun1984, yes [10:40] its xorg.conf edit your driver settings and screen res there [10:40] k [10:40] when I type "aptitude install", I get the following error message: Use of uninitialized value $item in hash element at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/DbDriver/File.pm. Does someone know how to fix it ? [10:41] maxagaz: aptitude install packagename [10:41] llutz, which one ? [10:41] maxagaz: the one you want to install [10:41] to get right to it, I am doing an install with 10.04 with encrypted lvm using as a framework this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemLVMHowto . Essentially you do the cryptsetup and lvm setup using the livecd console and then install to the partitions you created using ubiquity. this process worked up to 9.10. Now however I am getting an error during startup after I decrypt the partition saying something along the l [10:41] ines of "cryptsetup: lvm device name (cryplvm) does not contain a dash" and then drops you down to initramfs. The strange thing is when I look in /dev/mapper both of the lvm partitions exist (/dev/mapper/cryptlvm-root, etc). [10:42] weed37, who told you it was a grub vga problem? [10:42] llutz, I don't want to install any package [10:42] Madshun1984 that is a good point. I was under the assumption that he could not edit that file. Weed37 needs to reduce the Screen Resolution to its minimum in that case. [10:42] maxagaz: what do you expect "aptitude install" to do? [10:42] llutz, I expect it not to give me this error message [10:42] rocket16: brother.. when i run "g++ a.cpp" on the terminal.. it give me some errors :S [10:42] maxagaz: file a bugreport [10:42] and it seems that this is the script dropping the error: [10:43] http://people.canonical.com/~pitti//tmp/cryptroot [10:43] the usb works fine on one laptop (with persistant changes) so when changing laptops the res is already set for the first laptop causing driver/res issues [10:43] in the activate_vg() function [10:43] llutz, aptitude upgrade gives the same error message [10:43] That is correct. [10:43] ok [10:43] :) [10:43] i will sort this [10:44] weed37 I explained how on #easyas [10:44] maxagaz: your aptitude seems to be broken, check for bugs [10:44] Hi all... does anyone know the current state of the Lucid repo?

[11:00] Red_Baron: hibernation could be a mess with linux [11:01] !mtab [11:01] what is /etc/mtab ? [11:01] ubuntnoob: register oyur nick or ask in #freenode, this is only ubuntu-support [11:01] i wanna suspend working not hibernate :( [11:02] Dantonic: it is the list of mounted filesystems [11:02] Red_Baron: hibernation is suspend (to-disk) [11:02] whats the diff between suspend and hibernate [11:02] gottto can it be edited? [11:02] anyone good with cryptsetup and encrypted lvm? [11:02] Red_Baron: to-ram is the same story, some hardware just works, other won't [11:02] !anyone | dwebb [11:02] dwebb: 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? [11:02] Dantonic: there's no point - it is what is mounted - not what will be - what are you trying to do? [11:03] I already did [11:03] :) [11:03] Dantonic: usually not to be edited [11:03] to get right to it, I am doing an install with 10.04 with encrypted lvm using as a framework this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemLVMHowto . Essentially you do the cryptsetup and lvm setup using the livecd console and then install to the partitions you created using ubiquity. this process worked up to 9.10. Now however I am getting an error during startup after I decrypt the partition saying something alo [11:03] ng the l [11:03] ines of "cryptsetup: lvm device name (cryplvm) does not contain a dash" and then drops you down to initramfs. The strange thing is when I look in /dev/mapper both of the lvm partitions exist (/dev/mapper/cryptlvm-root, etc). [11:03] dwebb: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [11:03] dwebb: then be patient and dont use "anyone-questions" [11:03] dwebb: and go to #ubuntu+1 [11:03] ah... [11:03] bot [11:03] haha [11:03] gottto, llutz: I've been trying unsuccessfully to mount a new hard drive with read write permissions... I am able to to mount it, I created an fstab line, but I cannot read write to it unless I am doing so under root priviliges [11:04] trying to answer a bot probably not the best idea [11:04] Dantonic: what filesystem? [11:04] it means that on my laptop it will never run just fine ubuntu? :( [11:04] llutz, it is a vfat file system... formatted as fat32 [11:04] Red Baron: http://joeb454.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=921507 [11:04] Dantonic: use uid/gid/umask as mount options [11:05] Dantonic: and /etc/fstab is the file to change [11:05] llutz, this is the current line, would you be so kind as to type the exact line that I should have in there? /dev/sda5 /media/storage vfat defaults,user,exec,rw 0 0 [11:05] Dantonic: this works here in fstab - /dev/sda1 /media/hda1 vfat defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 1 [11:06] Dantonic: .... user,exec,umask=000 .... [11:06] Hi all, anyone know how hard it would be to put plogger on a NAS server that has a webserver built into it? [11:06] ok let me try [11:06] Dantonic: if you want to have all users rw-access [11:06] what is 007? [11:06] Dantonic: user/group have access, others not [11:07] ah with 007 does that mean that I will have access to it only from my desktop? but others will not? [11:07] llutz:: do you have any proper information how to use this fmask and dmask values [11:07] can somebody help me with my suspend/resume issue? :( [11:07] Jimi_Neutral: hard is always relativ, you have a real question? [11:07] ranjan: same way like umask, [11:07] hrm [11:07] iceroot, well i guess i need to k now if it is possible first and foremost [11:07] it looks like they changed he crypttab [11:08] Jimi_Neutral: and the nas is ubuntu? [11:08] Are drivers kernel-specific or distribution-specific? [11:08] llutz, what is "gid=46"? [11:08] RedNifre: normally kernel [11:09] Dantonic: group-id 46 [11:09] iceroot, it has mysql and php on it [11:09] Jimi_Neutral: is it ubuntu or not? [11:09] Red Baron what exactly are the symptoms of what your computer is doing without going into the model and card type? [11:09] not as far as i know [11:09] Jimi_Neutral: this is the ubuntu support channel :) [11:09] llutz:: I tried to gave those values for this dmask and fmask but after setting that values I was not being able to use that drive .. I was not sure with the correct values .. So that put me on problem [11:09] Dantonic: grep 46 /etc/group man mount [11:10] llutz, after doing a sudo mount -a I still cannot write to the drive [11:10] ranjan: what values have you used? [11:10] so.. actually I have two problems with suspend/resume [11:10] I tried with both umask=000 and 007 [11:10] We read that, but, what are the symptoms. Explain them. [11:10] Dantonic: paste that line from fstab here please [11:11] /dev/sda5 /media/storage vfat defaults,user,exec,umask=007,gid=46 0 0 [11:11] 1. if something is connected to usb, than, it will not enter in suspend mode... it will resume immediatelly but screen is off and laptop is not responding [11:11] Red Baron, it may not be an Ubuntu issue. [11:12] 2. if no usb device is connected, then it will go to suspend BUT when i open it up, the screen is off and laptop still unresponsive [11:12] but i hear that the hard drive is working [11:12] Dantonic: sudo umount /media/storagevfat && mount /media/storagevfat [11:12] but laptop completely unresponsive [11:12] Go into the BIOS and shut off suspend and hibernate. [11:13] llutz:: I am not able to recall the exact value at this point of time [11:13] there is no such option in BIOS [11:13] ranjan: just keep in mind, that those values are masks too [11:13] I upgraded the BIOS too, but no change... [11:13] Also check if the BIOS setting for PLUG N PLAY is on or off. [11:13] llutz, why /media/storagevfat ? u mean just /media/storage ? umount: /media/storagevfat: not found [11:14] Dantonic: sorry, misread you line, you're right [11:14] is there a command line program that will say what programs are using the most hard disk at a particular moment (like CPU?) [11:14] Better said: Enabled or Disabled. [11:14] kohlrak: iotop imo [11:14] llutz, ok I did that... [11:14] no change [11:15] Kohlrak top [11:15] iceroot, thank you. You have no idea how much help this'll be. [11:15] kohlrak, try opening a console and type top [11:15] llutz:: Is there any calculation based on which this values are being determined [11:15] top doesn't suffice, as top is for CPU and memory [11:15] <_iksik> hello [11:15] <_iksik> where I can find WINE .deb package for 9.10 ? [11:15] kohlrak, try du [11:15] kohlrak, try lsof [11:16] llutz, there's also another issue, I'm not sure if it is related, while I was trying different things to get it to work, I tried mouting on different points like /media/storage /media/storage1 etc.. those lines are no longer in fstab, but if I browse to /media/ those paths are still there, and they all point to the same hard drive [11:16] ranjan: "subtract the mask from 777" to get the permissions [11:17] _iksik: in the normal repo [11:17] <_iksik> iceroot, i need to download this file... where is a normal repo? :P [11:17] Kohlrak, top may be for CPU but it tells you the devices that are being used. [11:17] _iksik: apt-get -d wine i guess is the command to just download it, have a look at man apt-get [11:17] Dantonic: you can delete the unneeded mountpoints [11:18] OOo Impress question: how do I add a border to an image? [11:18] llutz, I am not sure how to do that, that's why I was inquiring about mtab earlier... those mount points don't exist in fstab any longer, but they are still present under /media/ [11:19] Duncan use GIMP. [11:19] Dantonic: mountpoints are just directories, if you don't need them, "sudo rm -rf /media/storage1" [11:19] iceroot, where you think i shoudl go? [11:19] llutz, ah ok.. sorry I'm a little new [11:19] Dantonic: but make sure, there isn't something mounted when apllying that command! [11:20] <_iksik> iceroot, where apt is gonna write this file? [11:20] Curly_Q, good idea, but not this time. Most of the images are already inside impress. [11:20] llutz:: which values .. Should I use 777-umask to get the permission or 777-gmask to get the permission and one more thing If I put those mounted part on network .. then .. will the network users'll be able to use that mounted part ... [11:20] Duncan-nz use GIMP for Screen Capture and then edit the Impress image. It is that simple. [11:21] Jimi_Neutral: the manual of your nas, the channel of the system your nas is using or something like that [11:21] ranjan: you want to have directory permission 755, then you have to use dmask=022 (777-022=755) [11:21] _iksik: it should be /var/cache/apt/ [11:21] llutz, ok they're gone, thank you. Now back to making that drive read write... Any other ideas? [11:22] <_iksik> and there it is :-) [11:22] <_iksik> thank You [11:22] Duncan-nz, I learned that trick when an old Windows program did not save. I used another software to save it by Screen Capture. Works all of the time. [11:22] ranjan: you want to have file permission 664, then you have to use fmask=002 (666-002=664) [11:22] _iksik: nice to hear [11:22] Is compizconfig-settings-manager the only way to get discreet control of visual effects [11:22] how do i open ports in ubuntu [11:22] i'm a bit confused about how i would email myself while bypassing any SMTP server...i tried: "sendmail ganymede@localhost" and then typed: "From: ganymede@localhost\nSubject: hello\n\nHello\n." and sendmail quit without error but then cat /var/spool/mail/ganymede is empty [11:23] Curly_Q, I have no problem getting the images. They are already in Impress. I don't have time to take them out and edit them, I need a solution inside OOo Impress. [11:23] how do i open ports in ubuntu for downloading [11:23] g33kergRL, what sort of download are you trying to do? [11:23] g33kergRL you dont do it with ubuntu, you do it with your router/modem as usual [11:23] rsk: oh yea [11:23] llutz:: ok .. now do you have any proper link so that .. I can get an proper explation on all this 7 values .. starting from 0 [11:23] g33kergRL, http and ftp ports are open to download. but they might be blocked on a routed. [11:24] quick tar question: I'm backing up my home directory, do I need to use -p to store permissions in the tar archive, or are they always stored and I just need to use -p to extract the files with the stored permissions? [11:24] ranjan: man chmod [11:24] !permissions [11:24] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [11:24] Ganymede: echo "foo" | mailx -s "subject" local-user [11:24] Xine-check ... anyone know anything about this guy? [11:24] ranjan: ^^ [11:24] llutz, I changed it back to 000 and removed the "default" option... it seems to work now [11:24] Kcwiro: ? [11:25] llutz:: thanks [11:25] OOo Impress question: how do I add a border to iimages in a slide? [11:25] Dantonic: fine, should have worked before too, but anyways [11:25] duncan-nz: #openoffice.org [11:25] iceroot, actually, i'd like to know why sendmail specifically isn't working because i'm actually not doing this from command line, i'm ultimately going to do this from a perl scirpt that uses sendmail...and syslog and /var/log/messages is not showing anything [11:25] iceroot, I have looked all over the place, the manual, the website, even irc, but not found the answer. [11:26] Ganymede: /var/log/mail.err /var/log/mail.info /var/log/mail.warn [11:26] thanks llutz but there's no mention of tar on that page... [11:26] rsk: you were so right. it was so long ago, i completely forgot about that [11:26] http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2008/10/i-am-not-impressed-with-openoffice.html [11:26] iceroot, no-one is watching on the #openoffice.org channel [11:26] iceroot: I am playing with using 'xine' for video playback and i am trying to work on improving the video playback... problem is the stuff I foudn says run 'xine-check' - problem is i type xine-check and it does not recognize the command [11:26] iceroot, ...those three logs are esentially empty, nothing explaining why my mail isn't being delivered to me [11:27] G_A_C: ? i havent sent you anything [11:27] iceroot, oddly enough, i could swear that the first email i sent to myself this way worked...but i've lost it...deleted it from thunderbird or something...either that or i'm going crazy [11:27] llutz, thank you for your help [11:27] llutz: sorry, I asked about tar permissions, and you used the !permissions macro immediately afterwards so I wasn't sure if it was aimed at me or the other guy you were talking to :) [11:27] so figuired I'd thank you anyway ;) [11:27] !permissions [11:27] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [11:28] just testing Orca on xchat [11:28] ugh [11:28] dsl [11:29] hrm [11:29] ok....changing the crypttab to the new line worked [11:29] but it is still barfing down to initramfs [11:29] Ganymede: call it from the command-line and see stderr [11:29] I can see the lvm partitions in /dev/mapper [11:29] but I can't see the partitions [11:30] (ie..../dev/mapper/cryptlvm-rootp1) [11:30] llutz:: I don't find any expiation for 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,0 by applying that command [11:30] iceroot, sendmail does not appear to write anything to stderr...: http://pastebin.com/3rf6GgzF [11:30] OOo Impress question: how do I add borders to images in a slide? [11:30] duncan-nz: how can i see potential problems in the terminal? is the only way to launch the torrent program from the terminal? [11:31] ranjan: chmods man-page? in the description-part, octal numbers [11:31] iceroot, "mailq" command returns: postqueue: fatal: Queue report unavailable - mail system is down [11:31] g33kergRL, aha, problems with torrents. Often you'll find that the torrents will download anyway, even though it says those ports are blocked. Try a popular torrent and give it 15 minutes to see. [11:32] Ganymede: maybe sendmail is not running? [11:32] g33kergRL, I can't help you with terminal questions. I don't use it much. [11:34] I not have any plugnplay option in BIOS [11:34] so it's not from BIOS settings [11:34] iceroot, oh...yeah postfix appeared to have died at some point...(in my defense, i didn't realize postfix needed to be running, i though sendmail can just place mail into /var/spool/mail in the abcense of a mailserver) [11:34] I have only powernow and enhanced power saving [11:35] wow, i had a LOT of mail queued up... =/ [11:35] !umask [11:35] please help me with my suspend resume bug :( [11:35] 2219 to be exact [11:35] !mask [11:35] Want to hide your IP while connected to freenode?

[11:42] bradbook, if your scanned uses a sane interface it should just work. Have tried the scanner utility under Graphics? [11:43] nyhcjedi, ask in the appropriate vm related channel (based on your vm software) [11:43] Red_Baron, you're welcome [11:43] ah yea sorry i was only posting here because i want host out of ubuntu [11:43] can anyone please take a look? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/415468/ i got issues about Wine and torrents [11:43] is that goal doable via ubuntu?

[12:07] SmokeyD: the name of the browser in terminal === cece_ is now known as semo [12:08] DarthPuff: the default browser as set in gnome, irrespective of which one it is. [12:08] it enters to suspend mode, but when i open the lid, there is no display, only hdd it's starts to spins but nothing else happens [12:08] SmokeyD: not sure, i would just change it as i changed the browser [12:08] SmokeyD: hm the entry for default browser is imo in the gconf-registry [12:08] psycho_oreos: yes, it's odd now everything is working, but sometimes it happens ... i [12:08] iceroot: yeah I figured that. I want a command that launches the browser that is set in gnome as the default browser [12:08] SmokeyD: if you are coding something then just test for different browser commands [12:08] red: so this is a laptop? [12:08] iromli, its an issue either with the routing or opendns servers themselves that are posing an issue [12:09] Red_Baron: suspend in linux never really works properly [12:09] guys, what is biggest android channel' name in this server? [12:09] Red_Baron: you will likely always have some problem [12:09] DarthPuff: that is not what I want. I have a script that I want to launch the browser which the user set as the default browser, not one I choose for them...

[12:10] I'm all out of options here. [12:10] xakh_: :p do you have a deadline? [12:10] G_A_C: thanks! [12:10] red: you can try this if you want... cannot verify as I do not use ubuntiubuntu on a laptop..or ever suspend the machine... [12:10] four hours. [12:10] SmokeyD: alternatively I think there's a "gnome-open" command which can be used to "run" a file and open it in its default associated app, maybe you could gnome-open an http:// link [12:10] Jerusalem420_, hold on [12:10] xakh_: yikes [12:11] G_A_C: thanks a lot. That is a good tip as well. i'll check it out [12:11] DarthPuff I know [12:11] thanks man. [12:11] Jerusalem420_, is compiz enabled?

[12:11] whats compiz [12:11] duncan-nz: Not a problem per-se, just curious as to whether a scanner is something practical for a mom to set up [12:11] It's almost done, but I can't figure it out [12:11] G_A_C: gnome open is indeed the one I needed.

[12:41] becker_11, this is generally not the best idea [12:41] inglor: reason?? === Votan|off is now known as Votan [12:41] becker_11: to backup a blog you normally need a sql dump, becaus ethe info is stored in a db and not in php files [12:41] inglor: I want to preserve it for historys sake [12:42] becker_11, wget fetches the contents of the html page [12:42] psycho_oreos: COULD you please take a look at this? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/415468/ [12:42] inglor: bugger what would be a better way then?? [12:42] becker_11: what you need is some access to the database itself, like iceroot said, an sql dump [12:43] g33kergRL, try the beta builds and run wine through that [12:43] becker_11, well, wget would fetch how the blog page looks like for someone that enters it from outside [12:43] wine beta builds? [12:43] g33kergRL, no utorrent beta builds [12:43] inglor: I've got a friend having an emotional meltdown and she is about to delete her blog I was hoping to grab a copy of it to my hd in case she regrets it once she has calmed down and thought about things [12:44] anyone here has a 64-bit ubuntu installed? i need a small c program compiled [12:44] becker_11, the sql dump contains the actual data from the database, what blog service do you use... [12:44] inglor: that may be my only option [12:44] becker_11: you need a sql dump [12:44] psycho_oreos: but those are by definition more unstable?!? [12:44] inglor: her blog is on wordpress [12:44] becker_11, if that's the case wget would work, but you might as well enter the blog, and click file-> save as [12:44] g33kergRL, its the only choice you have imo for the time being to get it to work, or seek similar linux native alternatives [12:44] iceroot: it's on wordpress. Am I right in assuming I can't do that from the viewers side of the internet [12:44] becker_11, you have no access to the sql if it's not your data, so I guess the html contents is your best choice [12:45] becker_11, just go there and click file->save as in firefox, wget is mainly used to obtain specific data from a webpage not for backup [12:45] becker_11: but you cant restore the blog if you only have the html-output [12:45] inglor: I could do file >> save as but there are many pages and I'm not that much of a patient man [12:45] psycho_oreos: sorry to be unclear. it works, and rather fast too, 20 mins per episode, but im worried that all these errmsg might break something [12:46] sorry to give the wrong impression [12:46] anyone that has used audio applications on linux in general, i am looking for a (preferred) gui app that will allow me to take a portion of a sound file, say 13m33s through 18m52s, and output it to new file [12:46] becker_11, what you're trying to accomplish is very possible with some basic coding, however that's not really an option given you're probably not too farmiliar with that [12:46] becker_11, so file->save as is probably your best option [12:46] vivid: i would like such an app too [12:46] * HaCeRu bai frate kre ma ajuta si pe mine sa connectez un psyBNC ????????????? [12:46] g33kergRL, if and when it does break something, especially with the files you're getting you may as well get a proper alternative.. utorrent never comes out in linux builds, they prefer linux users to go through wine which lacks lots of capability [12:47] if you have any ideas, that would be great, im trying to break i live recording of my band into the individual songs that were played [12:47] inglor: well I have done html myself in previous years what type of coding are you suggestion a bash script [12:47] !ro > HaCeRu [12:47] HaCeRu, please see my private message [12:47] psycho_oreos: yes, i will be using that too, but i really need to use utorrent now [12:47] !English > HaCeRu [12:47] HaCeRu, please see my private message [12:48] becker_11, what you need is a program that wgets the contents of the page, looks for html links (inside tags) and crawls them (wgets them as well as long as they're in the same subdomain) [12:48] g33kergRL, no buts, qBittorrent looks similar to utorrent or you can try rtorrent [12:48] becker_11, if that means something to you well good, if it doesn't I strongly suggest you just do each page manually [12:48] HaCeRu said something about help him if ... connect w/e [12:48] Two ldap.conf files here... /etc{/ldap,}ldap.conf But which component uses which file?

[12:48] inglor: yep thats what I need you don't happen to have a name do you [12:49] inglor: in windows it does never done it in linux [12:49] though HaCeRu was speaking in Romanian in an English only channel [12:49] becker_11, you can code it in bash [12:50] becker_11, btw, it's much easier in linux than in windows where you'd have to use a third party program for coding it [12:50] vivid: looked at audacity? [12:50] does anyone know how to mount en encrypted home folder on another partition? [12:50] alright, so i use gpld code in my comerical apps [12:50] whats wrong eith this?

[12:51] utorrent under linux? [12:51] g33kergRL: you *need* utorrent? Why? [12:51] psycho_oreos: not to nitpick, but is your help based on your preferential torrent program [12:52] it will possible run under wine [12:52] jae: read above [12:52] After a power issue, ubuntu doesn't boot, I just see the flashing '_' that appears before grub2 :( [12:52] hi, is there a way to allow everyone access to /etc/ld.so.preload with apparmor?

[12:53] jae, yea i actually already have it installed, just trying to figure out how to do what im trying to do, its what we recorded with actually :p [12:56] jae: please cast your knowledgeable eyes at this and if u can tell me if there's something seriously wrong with it. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/415468/ it does work, but im worried it might make something else unstable or break it [12:56] hello, is it possible to add an item to the right click menu? [12:56] I wish to add an item called "edit with vim" [12:56] Hi, anyone knows how libvirt works? I placed an iso file in /var/lib/libvirt/images and removed a disk image there, but when i connect using virt-manager, it still shows the old image and not any iso [12:56] lubse, yes [12:57] lubse, look at nautilus extensions [12:57] or scripts [12:57] I've also tried entering the full path to the iso in virt-manager, but it said it can't find it [12:57] i would say that something like that probably already exists === KB is now known as Guest12462 [12:57] I have KDE [12:57] does KDE also use nautilus?

[13:00] Guest12462, what version did you want to install? [13:00] Though, hmm, how to edit this region numerically, I'm still looking [13:00] g33kergRL: that doesn't answer my question [13:00] i want to install the new 3.2, but the version of ubuntu i installed has 3.1 [13:01] Guest12462, ppa is personal package archive, some package more recent version of packages than exist in Ubuntu software repositories [13:01] jae: so far, we're even on that score ... [13:01] Guest12462, what version of Ubuntu you on now? 9.10 ? [13:02] yes, that is correct [13:02] lubse, probably KDE also supports plugins... i just can't help with names ;) [13:03] g33kergRL: difference is, you want something ("need" you claim) which no-one here sees an actual reason for, so... with an abundance on fine *native Linux* torrent clients, we don't see what's the fuss all about [13:03] in computing it's common to use YYYY MM DD but which punctuation mark is used most?

[13:09] Guest12462, it seems version 3.2 is shipping with that. if not you can check backports or PPA for the more recent version search terms: Ubuntu PPA openoffice (for example) should give the necessary PPA link [13:09] * ayam_jago is away (Maaf!

[13:10] Guest12462, well if it must be this week, then the PPA or backports seem the only way, as the next version is not yet released. further info about lucid in #ubuntu+1 [13:11] bazhang, sorry - but i am not computer literate enough to understand your answer! what do i actually do with 'PPA or backports"?

[13:22] bazhang: I'm not sure how to restore it, I mean, I have a mac with an efi bootloader (refit) so I installed grub on /dev/sda3 (advanced settings on the installer), but in this command: grub-install --recheck i'm not sure if I should put /dev/sda3 [13:22] Hey gang, is there any way to get evince to substitute fonts when a required font is not installed and not embedded? [13:23] bazhang: it all happened after having to hard-reboot after trying a tiling window manager [13:23] I just spoke with the on-line support at O'Reilly and they told me that they do not embed fonts for all of their PDFs, so the book I just bought in electronic form shows up garbled. Sucky. [13:27] jae: interesting. i don't accept your word as gospel, so im different? your initial reaction is making fun of the noob, THAT is surely not different [13:27] bazhang: you got a minute for pm ? [13:27] jae: g33kergRL: take this elsewhere. [13:27] gladly [13:28] g33kergRL: and jae let's agree to drop the subject please and get back to why we are here. Helping and getting help. thank you :) [13:28] DSpair: that's unfortunate. which font? there may be a free equivalent which displays properly... [13:28] hm i'm a bit frustrated nobody here is trying to help me with my gpanel problem [13:29] Hiii [13:29] sipior: There are 6 Type 1C fonts listed in the properties which are not installed. [13:29] I logged into another server via ssh, got lunch and when I now type something, nothing is displayed in the terminal. How is that possible? [13:29] I am downloading xubuntu 9.10 and I am almost to burn it ... unfortunately I only have a dvd with me [13:29] I am using gnome-terminal and latest ssh. [13:29] fasta: ssh connection is dead [13:29] DSpair: which ones? [13:29] will it work if I burn it on the dvd instead ? [13:30] iceroot, and why does it do that? [13:30] fasta: because there is a idle-timout [13:30] iceroot, ok, how do I disable that? [13:30] iceroot, I can modify the server if needed. [13:30] fasta: /etc/ssh/sshd_config [13:30] seidl: people come in and out of here all the time. restate your question every 10-15 minutes, and you'll likely find someone who can help before much longer. [13:30] fasta: also its a good idea to use also screen [13:31] iceroot, will that keep it alive? [13:31] iceroot, I use screen already, just not for this. [13:31] fasta: it will keep the bash opened, doesnt matter if there is an idle-timout or the connection get lost [13:31] fasta: first ssh into it, then open a screen session there [13:31] do you know if is possible open dump windows file on linux' [13:31] ubuntu [13:31] sipior: well i ws used to get help here immediately - but ill try later thx [13:32] antonio84: dump windows file?

[13:33] Hey, I was wandering if you can help me with qbittorrent, I have 60kbps speed for normal downloading but even for well seeded torrents my qbittorrent speed stays maximum 40-50 kbps, anything can be done for making it complete 60? [13:33] My maximum connection limit by default is 100 in qbittorrent [13:33] bittyx, work to do what [13:33] Hi, How to delete a user account with all the files?

[13:34] zhxk, what? [13:35] i see Steve George come to china [13:35] zhxk, thats offtopic here [13:35] hi, I think I have a problem with ubuntu one as something keeps constantly uploading nethogs says it is /usr/lib/erlang/lib/ssl-3.1 which I think has to do with couchdb [13:35] zhxk: uhh...wrong channel? [13:35] bazhang: just to make it working (it's not now). background: it was attacked by a virus (in windows of course), and became inaccesible. tried formatting from win, but couldn't make it work. tried gparted, it reports an error when i try to create a partition after deleting the old one. [13:35] Steve George is one of ubuntu op? [13:35] zhxk, #ubuntu-offtopic [13:36] bazhang: tried to delete all partitions from fdisk, succeeded. tried dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc to overwrite it completely, it gets to some 66MB (it's a 1GB stick) and stops. [13:36] with an I/O error [13:36] i guess my question is, is there anything i can do to make it work, or is it completely broken? [13:36] bittyx, sticks don't live forever. === ganja_ is now known as ganja [13:37] i know, but i hate the fact that a windows virus made it stop working :S [13:37] is Steve[cug] Steve George? [13:37] bittyx, did you already try creating a new fs on it? [13:37] i downloaded the google earth....it is .bin format ....wat to do [13:37] zhxk: Did you have a ubuntu related question? [13:37] Hi, How to delete a user account with all the files? Pl help [13:37] thank you no [13:38] my buddy has 82946GZ/GL integrated graphics and the driver seems to be working fine, compiz is working and glxinfo |grep direct says it is enabled, but the resolution won't go past 800x600 here is the xorg.conf I made for him: http://www.pastebin.org/153685 === zain is now known as alam [13:38] zhxk, this channel is for Ubuntu support only. chat in #ubuntu-offtopic === alam is now known as atsb [13:38] zhxk: you can join #ubuntu-offtopic if you wish to chat [13:39] bazhang I know you can help me out if you wanted [13:39] i downloaded the google earth....it is .bin format ....wat to do [13:39] ok, heading [13:39] babu ./googleearth.bin [13:39] or maybe sudo ./googleearth.bin [13:39] yeah, from gparted, tried ntfs and fat32, ntfs fails, fat32 finishes but doesn't work. i've deleted the partition table with fdisk, created a new msdos one in gparted, and then i made a primary 1 fat32 partition. [13:40] Hi, How to delete an user account with all the files? want to decongest my disk. Pl help. am absolute beginner. [13:40] it doesn't report any errors, but i still can't access it. [13:40] gogu: rm -R /home/user [13:40] or you can do it with the users and groups app [13:40] i tried.....it shows cmd not found [13:41] well, it finishes the "creating new partition" proccess succesfully, and then it does another auto-scan, and it's doing "Searching /dev/sdc partitions" but it'll never stop [13:41] Question - I remember in Synaptic I installed a package which allows me (In Nautilus) to right click a file, and have "Run As Administrator" an option (aka Root). I'm looking for that package again - does anybody know what its name was? [13:41] Gogu: "sudo deluser --remove-all-files " [13:41] babu I don't know if ./googleearth.bin is the exact command you need it was an example [13:41] to delete all ssh keys of a user, can I just remove the /.ssh folder? [13:41] ./gearth.bin [13:41] sudobash: will try that and get back [13:41] sudo .gearth.bin [13:41] Gogu: careful with that, though, and make sure you don't want any of the files owned by that username. [13:42] sipior: will try that and get back [13:42] Gogu you should deluser then rm -R /home/user if anything is left behind [13:43] babu you need to use ./ to run bins you will have to find the full name of the bin file and you have to be in the directory it is located in so if it is on the destop from the cmd you should type: cd /home/user/Desktop [13:43] then try to execute the binary with ./ or sudo ./ [13:44] my buddy has 82946GZ/GL integrated graphics and the driver seems to be working fine, compiz is working and glxinfo |grep direct says it is enabled, but the resolution won't go past 800x600 here is the xorg.conf I made for him: http://www.pastebin.org/153685 [13:44] will ubuntu server 9.10 32-bit benefit from a second processor if I add one, or will it not make use of it [13:45] sudobash: that paste is empty? [13:45] sipior: i earlier deleted user. but files are intact. after executing command, it says the user does not exist [13:45] http://pastebin.org/153685 [13:46] fasta: next time use screen :-) [13:46] iceroot, yes, or next time the company should maybe just replace their ethernet cables... [13:46] my buddy has 82946GZ/GL integrated graphics and the driver seems to be working fine, compiz is working and glxinfo |grep direct says it is enabled, but the resolution won't go past 800x600 here is the xorg.conf I made for him: http://pastebin.org/153685 [13:46] Gogu: then you'll need to delete the home directory and assorted files manually. (or you can recreate the user with the same uid, and then delete it) [13:47] there thats the right pastebin [13:47] Gogu: sudo rm -R /home/useryouwantstonuke [13:47] sipior: will try that [13:47] sudobash, open ccsm go to general options and tellme what is listed under "Outputs" [13:48] one second using vnc [13:48] sudobash, also when addressing someone type the first 2 or 3 letters of their name and hit tab tocomplet...this way they can be alerted that you are speaking with them :) [13:50] hello, I upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 and after upgrade finishes, my system doesn't boot again [13:50] Guest39308, #ubuntu+1 for lucid 10.04 [13:50] Guest39308, you need to go to the #ubuntu+1 channel type /join #ubuntu+1 [13:50] is it possible to do things as another user in the terminal, similar to sudo (although not limited to "root")? [13:50] coz_ does this look like it: 640x480+0+0 [13:51] frxstrem: yes, use the "-u" switch to sudo [13:51] sudobash, ok now you see the "New" button just below that? [13:51] sipior: okay, thanks :) [13:51] is there any way to downgrade to an older kernel in 9.10? === lucas__ is now known as lucas_mueller [13:51] yeah [13:51] sudobash, what size monitor does he have?

[13:52] sudobash, then move that to the top with the "Up" button [13:52] sudobash, then tell him to log off and log on again and let me know if anything has changed [13:52] !update [13:52] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [13:52] I can not boot anything [13:52] hmmm I will have to set autologin and vnc he is at work [13:53] Guest39308, /join #ubuntu+1 [13:53] I can not reach a terminal [13:53] sudobash, ok well at some point see if that works [13:53] thanks, I'll go there [13:53] Guest39308, have u try reinstall or update your boot grub? [13:53] I cannot get remastersys 2.0.13 updates from repo, because of 'geek' word in url ISP blocked access to its repo! [13:54] Parsi: time for a new isp... [13:54] I don't think it is related to grub, ubuntu starts booting but doesn't complete [13:54] sipior: now I need remastersys:( [13:54] I don't want to make a new installation [13:54] ahh login screen app has changed completely alright coz_ I am going to sudo service gdm restart will that work?

[13:56] how to install gtk+ from terminal [13:56] hi, has anyone had any trouble or know anything about getting a hauppagge HVR-1600 tuner on ubuntu [13:56] Gogu: how did you attempt to add the user, and what was the error you received? [13:56] will ubuntu server 9.10 32-bit benefit from a second processor if I add one, or will it not make use of it [13:56] coz_ i just restart gdm and it didn't work so I'm restarting, should it automatically force 1280x1024 or will I have to pick it in Display under Prefrences? [13:56] how to install gtk+ from terminal [13:57] sipior: not through terminal. from system/administration/user and groups [13:57] help me [13:57] sudobash, not sure with intell ...if this doesn work then someone can help with the xorg conf [13:57] coz_ it's still stuck at 800x600 [13:58] alright cool [13:58] akshay, what are you trying to do, please specify instead of repeating [13:58] Gogu: at this point, easiest just to delete the home directory manually, and remember "deluser" for future occasions... [13:58] sudobash, out of curiosity did you go to system/preferences/display and try to change the resolution there? [13:58] bondiblueos9: should do, yes. what is the output of "uname -a" on the system in question? [13:59] bazhang im trying to recompile the kernal...so in the process i typed make gconfig....which pops an error which says gtk+ not installed [13:59] sipior: while manually trying, it says i do not have permissions [13:59] Gogu: you'll need to preface the command with "sudo" [13:59] akshay, why would you need to recompile the kernel [13:59] sipior: Linux bigbox 2.6.31-14-generic-pae #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 15:22:42 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux [13:59] bazhang, its my class assignment [14:00] akshay, sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0 [14:00] thanks [14:00] bondiblueos9: yep, the kernel is smp-aware. should be fine. [14:01] how can i find remastersys 2.0.13 deb package? [14:01] sipior: sudo rm -R /home/ command returns "no such file or directory" msg [14:01] sipior: are there any commands that I can use to verify that it is using both processors? [14:01] Gogu: then i guess those files are gone. === Guest39308 is now known as Mian [14:02] Does any one know how/if I can install an _older_ version of a packet in the APT repository? Can I somehow specify version? [14:02] sipior: i think its gone. will check and get back [14:03] Two ldap.conf files here... /etc{/ldap,}ldap.conf But which component uses which file? I think /etc/ldap.conf is used by libpam-ldap, but... it doesn't appear to be owned by it (according to dpkg -L). It does appear in libpam-ldap's postinst... [14:03] bondiblueos9: yes, htop shows a nice display, if you're into that sort of thing. top should show them as well. [14:03] sudobash, also look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1338344 [14:04] thanks [14:04] sipior: thanks [14:05] sipior: its gone.

[14:06] Hi I have problem with opening tar.gz file === nawst2 is now known as mawst [14:06] hello [14:06] eyal, what seems to be the issue? [14:06] i wanna do java rmi program, and i'd to copy jar file of server program to /var/www/html but that dir doesn't exist.. why so? [14:06] eyal: tar -zxvf file.tar.gz [14:06] ha [14:06] seidl: what are the permissions of the directories /home//.gconf and /home//.gconfd? [14:07] adifire got apache installed? [14:07] !help [14:07] 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. :-) [14:07] inglor, I exported my whole db to tar.gz file. After I import - it only restored 2 db out of 10 [14:07] i have a simple one how to I fix my sound [14:07] There are a lot of people [14:07] the quality ir horrible [14:08] eyal, are you sure this is a tar issue and not an export issue? what were you using to export the database? [14:08] I've even tried to fix it with gzrt... [14:08] hi [14:08] i guess so.. kitche, apache2 is there [14:08] I use phpmyadmin panel [14:08] sipior: they are rwx------- and owned by me - it cpompared that to another machine and this somehow seem ok [14:08] can someone help me how to start bluetoot msi adapter? [14:08] :-p hello [14:09] needs help on sound [14:09] sipior: the thing ist also: i can change gconf keys but nut the ones for the panel apps [14:09] sipior: others seem to work [14:09] seidl: and the permissions of all subdirectories are similar? [14:09] hi [14:09] im having an update for sudo. i hope its not overtaking system and making sudo acces to some virus. what was wrong with sudo? [14:09] eyal, do you still have access to the database itself or are you trying to restore it now from scratch? are you also importing it to phpMyAdmin [14:09] Is there a way to print the content of tar.gz file on screen? or try to extract some of the files? [14:09] Kangarooo: uh, what? [14:10] eyal, also, are both your phpMyAdmin the same version? [14:10] Kangarooo, an update for sudo? [14:10] kitche, will creating an html dir inside www work? [14:10] sipior: yes [14:10] eyal, yes, but the contents won't be flat text files since it is a database [14:10] inglor, Sadly I already formated the computer so I don't have access to the old phpmyadmin. I try to restore it to the same phpmyadmin [14:10] seidl: you haven't run X as root, or run the configuration editor via sudo, right? [14:11] inglor, I wouldn't know what was the previous version... [14:11] inglor, I just know the I have 8.04 (ubuntu) and I installed the new 9.10 [14:11] sipior: the first thing not - the second thing i dunno [14:11] hi does anyone know how to test if a fifo is full? [14:11] sipior: i might try that? [14:11] any1 please [14:11] sipior: or rather not? [14:11] sipior bazhang yes update for sudo. i dont want to update that. if something was wrong with sudo then i shouldnt be using it before this update if it contains fix. but since i was using sudo before and all was good why there should be sudo update? im beeing suspicios- maybe somebody made update for sudo witch will install virus access. [14:11] seidl: i wouldn't :-) [14:12] Kangarooo, that makes no sense at all [14:12] eyal, to view the contents try tar -tvf filename.tar [14:12] Kangarooo: you're being paranoid, not suspicious. [14:12] inglor, Do you think it can be different version issue? The gz file is 3.8Mb so it support to be ok... [14:12] Kangarooo: by the same reasoning, you should never install any security update ever. [14:12] inglor, it says: gzip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors [14:13] eyal, the thing is I doubt this is a tar issue, a tar file is like a zip file, this is much more likely a phpMyAdmin issue [14:13] sipior: i think i did but i didnt change anything [14:13] inglor, I wish you right... !!! I have some important tables inside [14:13] how do I mount a cd from the command line? [14:13] * iPunk desperate here a party is coming and everytime i play song with some abss it goes horrible [14:13] seidl: my guess is that one of the registry files is owned by root. might be worth a look, anyway. [14:13] inglor, The thing is that it imported only 2 db... [14:14] sipior: somehow i dont get where the config is coming from - i allready deleted the whole panel directories of the .gconf dir but nothing changed. should i try restarting gconfd? [14:14] eyal, you better wish I'm wrong since if it's a tar issue it's very easy to fix, but if it's a phpMyAdmin issue (meaning phpMyAdmin didn't export it correctly) it's probably lost [14:14] seidl: did you touch .gconfd as well? [14:14] anyway if it's a tar.gz and not a tar try [14:14] iPunk: so is the problem your computer or your speaker/sound setup? [14:14] sipior: no [14:14] eyal, then try tar -ztvf your-file.tar.gz [14:14] my computer the hifi is perfectly fine [14:14] and the wire is fine [14:15] cabel nor wire sorry [14:15] security update for programms yes but this is access. ok tell me if some virus maker makes update is he able to post update without his update being inspected and reviewed by someone else too? bazhang sipior [14:15] again, gzip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous error [14:15] Kangarooo, what version of ubuntu [14:15] 9.10 [14:16] Kangarooo, please pastebin you r sources.list [14:16] Kangarooo, paste.ubuntu.com [14:16] sipior: what is saved state in .gconfd? is itz also config info? [14:16] bazhang: can u give cmr command for outputing that? [14:17] Kangarooo: look, do what you want, it's your system. but you didn't build sudo by hand for your initial install, so it's a little strange to be all nervous about it now. [14:17] eyal, I'd try asking the phpMyAdmin people, since this probably isn't a tar issue [14:17] eee [14:17] Kangarooo, sure; cat /etc/apt/sources.list --> paste.ubuntu.com save and give us the url [14:17] in synaptic its not easy to copy [14:17] Kangarooo, via the terminal not synaptic [14:17] seidl: i don't know exactly what gconfd sticks in that directory. i've tried to learn as little as possible about gconf :-) [14:17] inglor, is there a channel for this kind of issue? === WebDawg is now known as WebWTF [14:18] sipior: ok :) [14:18] it seems the xorg is ignoring the Modes line but when I change anything else in my custom xorg.conf GDM refuses to load like if I change the BuSID so obviously it is using the config file [14:18] http://paste.ubuntu.com/415564/ bazhang [14:18] Kangarooo, reading now [14:18] eyal, I'm not sure, really, probalby... next time I'd probably use a mysqldump command rather than a cms option [14:18] ugghhh any1 please friends will be laughin at me fro installing ubuntu [14:19] theres default sources [14:19] inglor, what do you mean? I used mysqldump but just chose gzip instead of sql file [14:19] yay [14:20] Kangarooo, you're fine, no need to worry about viruses getting access to your machine [14:20] is there any reason icant VNC into my ubuntu box on the LAN from a windows box? [14:20] :( [14:20] how can I make my cd drive automount on disc insertion on ubuntu server 9.10? [14:20] hellz bellz do you have vnc enabled on ubuntu? and are you sure your not using an alternate port for vino? [14:21] srsly no1 can help me with sound and realtek drivers? [14:21] !intelhda | iPunk [14:21] iPunk: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [14:21] sudobash I see vino-server running in ps -A and i cannot find what port its using [14:22] not intel sound card [14:22] realtek [14:22] is it possible to make programm and its accepted so its put in synaptic theese default sources so anyone with default installation can isntall programm witch contain virus? [14:22] hellz_bellz: nmap -v -v -sT 127.0.0.1 [14:22] Kangarooo, no, no need to worry about that. You're fine. [14:22] how would i enable it if it does not show up? [14:23] Remote Desktop in Administration I think [14:23] eyal, is it possible you only marked 2 out of 10 databases when you've made the back-up? the fact it does import 2 databases indicates this probably isn't a tar issue [14:23] no it's in System -> prefrences -> Remote Desktop [14:23] hello pps i need a big hand, my "z" key doesnt work, just that key, i was messing with keyboard shorcuts days before, worked ok till suddenly died. Is there any way to read somehow the d((ata input (if any) when i press the "z" key. i think it sends data but not plain text. [14:24] iPunk: all hda cards are a standar that intel made; realtek only does the codec that follows that standar [14:24] sudobash there is no on off button nor is there a configuration for ANY advanced options [14:24] what command can I use to copy all of the contents of one drive to another, skipping all errors and making a log of the files that could not be copied? [14:24] inglor, no. the 2nd db imported partly [14:24] ok Im following the guide will ask questions if I get stuck [14:24] hellz_bellz you have to use gconf-editor to change vino settings [14:25] sudobash how do i do that? [14:25] type gconf-editor at terminal [14:26] plop [14:26] bazhang: why not? so is programms and updates put in universe reviewed? all updates inspected what will they do? maybe in some programm is line witch executes deleting files command at random time so its very hard to know with programm has been making files to disapear [14:27] eyal, what's the output of file yourzip.tar.bz ? [14:27] !lnw | Kangarooo [14:27] Kangarooo: Want to know the differences between Windows and Linux? This guide, called "Linux is Not Windows" is a pretty good read -- http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm [14:27] eyal, I mean the command file [14:27] Kangarooo, please read that. there is not an issue to worry about. [14:27] has anyone problems? [14:28] How do I get the public key of the website, like http://www.verisign.com/? [14:28] inglor, sorry - it's sql.gz file not tar.gz file...

[14:57] user123: no, it needs to be replaced by the company [14:57] user123, not likely... [14:57] user123: that warinig comes from the SMART data of the disk. System>Administration>disk utility may have more info on what is exactly wrong [14:57] user123: depending on that info you can make a decision [14:57] user123, check warranty status... i think those have 3 year warranties...

[15:07] if you're using LFE, there is no "volume", it just sends a signal.

[16:13] is it possible to use sudo while running from the Ubuntu LiveCD to access/modify system files (like for instance /etc/passwd or /etc/sudoers) on an installed Linux system? [16:14] Frxstrem: absolutely [16:14] frxstrem: yes [16:14] Frxstrem: use: gksudo nautilus , and you can get write access to your internal partitions [16:14] frxstrem: just mount the partition and do a chroot [16:15] weekly: is your /tmp directory full, by any chance? [16:15] well, it was really just a theoretical question, but thanks for your answers, everyone :) [16:15] weekly: does the "--inplace" switch help at all? [16:17] If I install the 10.04 release of Ubuntu NOW when release time comes and I've been updating, will I essentially be in the same system state as people who installed after the official release? [16:17] sipior: the /tmp has a ver small amount of data in it, ill man the --inplace and see if it will help [16:17] ZummiG777, yes [16:17] ZummiG777: yes #ubuntu+1 for more info [16:17] weekly: none of your partitions are running close to full? rsync makes a temporary copy of the data by default...

[16:20] bondiblueos9: correct [16:20] Bondiblueos9: correct [16:20] what is the command to search for files? [16:20] someone can help-me [16:20] I want to know where my vimrc is located [16:20] ? [16:20] locate [16:20] !ask | jyraia [16:20] jyraia: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [16:20] Lubse: sudo find / -iname "something" [16:20] ah, not find ! :D [16:21] ins't it locate? [16:21] find also [16:21] so the scripts in cron.daily, cron.weekly, and cron.monthly may not actually execute daily, weekly, and monthly? [16:21] You can use locate too but you will need to update the db first [16:21] what does / -iname do? [16:21] bondiblueos9: not if the computer is off [16:21] how do i install an initrd image? or create, i compiled with make-kpkg kernel_image and don't get initrd, how i do this after compilet without initrd? [16:21] * ayam_jago reboot [16:22] bondiblueos9: from my understanding, since cron was originally meant for server admin tasks, it assumes that the system is always on [16:22] Bodblueos9: if the pc is off then it won't happen as the cron scheduler isn't loaded to do stuff [16:22] lol. [16:22] they should have used the isComputerOn() function. [16:23] For systems that are not always running, there is anacron [16:23] IdleOne, ActionParsnip, pionar: is there any tool which checks to see if a scheduled task was executed, and then executes if it hasn't been? [16:23] bondiblueos9: anacron [16:23] ok [16:24] I assume Ubuntu Desktop sets up anacron by default anyway [16:24] All of a sudden, my mouse cursor got dragged down to the bottom-right corner of my screen and I can't use it. I can sometimes pull it back up for a half-second but watch it get dragged back down. Any idea what might be going on here? [16:24] there are lines like this in /etc/crontab [16:24] 25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) [16:24] what is a good freeware cloning applciation?

[16:25] harddrives [16:25] clonezilla works [16:25] would you use it if you needed to clone a drive? [16:25] lol at stevenmarky [16:26] should I edit the vimrc in user/share/vim or in etc/vim ? [16:26] josh3234: I have never had the need to but I have seen many people suggest it [16:26] thank you for the input IdleOne [16:27] does anybody here run EVE Online on 32-bit ubuntu 9.04? [16:27] 9.10* [16:27] witam [16:28] Can't imagine an old 32-bit system would be powerful enough to run EVE Online, but I could be wrong. [16:28] Hackel: you can run a 32bit OS on most 64bit CPUs [16:28] ping [16:28] it'll run it, but i'm having issues with 64bit ubuntu. wondering if i should just install 32-bit... [16:28] exit [16:28] ActionParsnip: True, but only if you're a complete idiot. [16:29] hackel: not helpful [16:29] Hackel: why? 32bit is fine [16:29] ActionParsnip: I could also run an 8-bit operating system. [16:29] who is polish? [16:29] !pl | ubuntu [16:29] ubuntu: Na tym kanale używamy tylko języka angielskiego. Możesz uzyskać pomoc w języku polskim na #ubuntu-pl. [16:29] 32bit is fine if u have 4G of ram or less [16:29] from somebody who knows...should i just go with 32-bit? and use PAE since i have 6gb ddr3? [16:29] Codelurker: you can use 12gb usiing pae [16:30] Hi, I can't seem to upgrade my PostgreSQL packages from 8.4.2.1 to 8.4.3.1 without breaking dependencies (I'm using Hardy with KDE). Is this just me, or it is a known issue? [16:30] There is absolutely no reason to ever use a 32-bit operating system on a modern computer, unless it's a netbook. [16:30] Gmatt00: either is fine [16:30] codelurker: 32 bit operating systems don't necessarily have a 4G memory limit. [16:30] gmatt: pae is considerable slower than 64bit linux [16:30] Hackel: my p2 233 desktop pc won't run 64bit and isn't a netbook [16:30] true [16:31] thanks action, just frustrated with it. have spent 5 days trying to get eve working on 64-bit and it's just not working :S [16:31] ActionParsnip: perhaps you missed the bit about "modern computer"? [16:31] codelurker: Though individual processes might only be able to access 4G each. [16:31] what is the command to add a program to the init file so it starts at boot? [16:31] greenie: man update-rc.d [16:31] would an HP DV7-3085DX be considered a modern computer? lol [16:31] Hackel: its new enough for me [16:31] cool thanks [16:31] !boot | greenie [16:31] greenie: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto [16:31] Hackel: you can get core2duo which are 32bit [16:32] Hi all, I want to maximally compress a folder to upload to a server, I dont mind waiting. What is the program/format I should use? [16:32] ive got a core i7...downloading 32-bit... [16:32] ActionParsnip: It might be *good* enough for you, but you cannot call it "new". I'm trying to remember how long ago I had a machine that slow, I think it was at least 10 years ago. [16:32] trintje: 7zip or bzip2 [16:32] Trijnte: bzip2 [16:33] Hackel: its a file/backup server so it doesn't need blistering power [16:33] daMull: ActionParsnip, bzip2 it is, thanks. Google wasnt very clear ;) [16:33] hackel, is depends on what you do whether or not that is fast enough. [16:33] ActionParsnip: 32-bit Core 2? I've never heard of such a thing. [16:33] ActionParsnip: And I'm not arguing that older computers aren't useful. I'm arguing that they aren't "modern". [16:33] hackel, if you do Forth development on small data sets, it is more than enough. [16:33] hackel, if you want to run KDE, not so. [16:34] fasta: kde 1 should run ;-) [16:35] hi all... i'm planning to get SSD drive & install ubuntu 9.10 on it....... but after googling a bit... sounds like 9.10 doesnt support TRIM.. also that I have to align the block properly on SSD... that sounds scarry! [16:35] what is the offtopic channel? [16:35] !ot > wegandu [16:35] wegandu, please see my private message [16:36] does anyone run 9.10 on SSD ? [16:36] ubuntu offtopic channel name plz? [16:36] NeoCicak, I don't know about that, but I have run 9.10 and 10.04 on an ssd and havent noticed anything unusual [16:37] NeoCicak: I dont know anything about aligning, but I do know 9.10 and 10.04 do not support TRIM [16:37] costre : did you have to do aligning? [16:37] is 10.04 stable? [16:37] NeoCicak, As I said, I just installed as usual, no difference at all [16:37] at all [16:38] Hi [16:38] gmatt00: it is Beta can break without warning [16:38] costre & prayii : well... i was reading quickly on the net... that one should do aligning properly to get all the juice out of SSD... due to the 4kb block deletion (or something like that) [16:38] NeoCicak: there is someone on the forums who has made a script that will TRIM the drive manually though. [16:38] Gmat00: is here, #ubuntu+1 for support and discussions [16:38] gmatt00, Not officially, join #ubuntu+1 for more info [16:38] gmatt00: #ubuntu+1 for Lucid [16:38] thanks guys, ill take a look :) [16:39] I'm trying to use my video projector with lucid, but somehow no video is displayed when using the default xv driver. Any idea how to fix that ? [16:39] Acid: if you boot with it connected does it work? [16:40] AciD: Lucid discussion is in #ubuntu+1 [16:40] Acid: if you are using lucid, ask ONLY there [16:40] costre & prayii: are you happy with your ubuntu + SSD? is it significantly faster to start up applications? also.. how long have you had it for? does the performance degrade over time ? if possible, can you do hdparm -t on it? i'd like to see how much faster it is.... [16:41] Hi, I can't seem to upgrade my PostgreSQL packages from 8.4.2.1 to 8.4.3.1 without breaking dependencies (I'm using Hardy with KDE). Is this just me, or it is a known issue? [16:41] NeoCicak: I don't have one yet.

[16:49] researcher1: at the bottom of the screen there should be a list of commands [16:50] I think you just ESC to exit/save not sure though === _Flusher is now known as Flusher === BedMan_ is now known as BedMan [16:50] idle he wants to save his config unless ubuntu behaves differently he needs to edit grub.conf [16:51] teurastaja: not with grub2 see !grub2 [16:51] is it still beta?

[16:51] IdleOne: yes there is but it does not Save [16:51] umm yeah I guess it is [16:51] Is it possible to get my laptop to broadcast the same netbios name regardless of the network it's on - that way, my windows boxes can always find it, whatever net i'm on, right? [16:51] researcher1: see the link ubottu sent you for more info [16:52] researcher1: to save, you have to edit the grub configuration files, see the links above or /msg ubottu !grub or !grub2 [16:52] what shell is it that is really minimal? [16:52] do I need to erase a tape before I write to it? [16:52] h00k: How do I msg ubottu? [16:52] gmatt sh [16:52] can I just rewind it and then tar to it?

If you use wireshark can you capture the external ip's of people you are connected to? i.e. does your ip go through the live or game servers before being distributed to other peers? (i know might be slightly off topic, but figured i'd ask) [16:57] regarding xbox and their live service [16:58] IdleOne, what is the off topic channel name? [16:58] lspci does list the controller but the driver is not listed [16:58] wegandu: #ubuntu-offtopic [16:58] #ubuntu-offtopic [16:58] IdleOne, thank you [16:58] teurastaja: sorry I can't help more [16:59] so, I'm at an office with free WiFI [16:59] hi everybody [16:59] maybe it just isnt installed [16:59] using WPA2 [16:59] I can connect to the router, but I'm not getting a DHCP response from it [16:59] need help with apt-get [16:59] my wife's Vista laptop connects just fine [16:59] please [16:59] and when I guess a static IP, it works fine [16:59] gnetux: what exactly? [17:00] anyone know what might be causing me to not get a DHCP response? [17:00] doesnt apt-get have a search or info subcommand like yum? [17:00] teurastaja: it does [17:01] what is it? its not in the doc and i dont have this option [17:01] Errors were encountered while processing: [17:01] teurastaja: man pages are often cryptic, man apt [17:01] and listing apt* commands with tab doesnt yield interesting results [17:01] gnetux: what are you doing that gives that error? [17:01] /var/cache/apt/archives/ati-driver_9.5-bt2_i386.deb [17:01] E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [17:01] apt-get -f install doesn't work [17:02] trying to install backtrack-ati [17:02] I have a problem with my ubuntu server. I want to use my ubuntu server as a vpn. I installed pptpd and I configurated it. With my windows7 pc i can connect to the vpn server, but I can only access lan adresses like http://192.168.178.2 The problem is that I can not connect to internet websites. Could you kindly help me? [17:02] once downloaded all packages it can't install ati-driver [17:03] is there an easy way to restart a program once it's closed automatically? [17:04] 'cause Pidgin seems to crash alot, and when it does I just want it to restart [17:04] can I use dd to write my partition to a tape device? [17:05] frxstrem: killall pidgin && pidgin [17:05] or xkill [17:06] switch10_: I said, restart it *when it's closed* (not running after it crashes) [17:06] kill -HUP [17:06] frxstrem: so you mean *start* it? restart would imply that it is running.. [17:07] IdleOne: Any idea [17:07] ? [17:07] switch10_: well, it's kinda both ('cause it's running, then it closes and I want to start it again - restart it), but you get the point, right? [17:07] Good day all , how to make Right-to-left editing support on in openoffice.org writer ? when humble = i try to enabling it in toolbar it does not change [17:08] frxstrem: instead of closing it manually run the command i posted. it will kill it and then start it again.. [17:08] does anyone know what might be causing a wireless router to not give me a DHCP reponse? [17:08] gnetux: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a perhaps === ccalidad is now known as csotelo [17:08] switch10_: as I already said, I'm not closing it maunally, it crashes all the time (or maybe more like once every second hour or so) - that's why I want it to restart [17:09] mhall119: Is DHCP enabled? ;) [17:09] mhall119: it's configured to give licences only to certain mac addresses? [17:09] DcMeese: yes, my wife's Vista laptop connected [17:09] mhall119: Is....it running Ubuntu? [17:09] I just saw an iPhone get a DHCP response too [17:10] DcMeese: my laptop is, I don't know what the router is running, it's not mine [17:10] is it safe to edit grub.cfg? I want to delete quiet and splash words from grub. [17:10] frxstrem: maybe if it is crashing that often, you should be looking for another program. What I posted is the easiest way to do what you want to do. [17:10] researcher1: back it up first, but sure [17:10] sipior: it's a doctor's office, they don't whitelist MACs [17:10] mhall119: well i obviously have no way of knowing that in advance. [17:10] ceil: how do i backup grub? [17:10] sipior: I'm answering your question [17:10] Hello people [17:11] mhall119: we're basically playing a guessing game. [17:11] researcher1: sudo cp /boot/grub.cfg /boot/grub.cfg.bak [17:11] researcher1: or wherever it is [17:11] ok [17:11] frxstrem: short of setting up a cron job to open pidgen every min or so... but you would not want to do that obviously [17:11] I would like some help with my nic card and ubuntu 9.10 please [17:11] sipior: me too, I can't figure it out [17:11] switch10_: that could probably be a kinda good idea :P thanks [17:12] if I enter a manual IP address in the correct range, I am fine [17:12] now, how do you set up cron jobs? [17:12] ceil: :but if the edited grub fails to work how do I get back from the backed up grub? Because I may not be able to chat if it fails [17:12] researcher1: livecd i guess :x [17:12] frxstrem: no it is not a good idea. you want 1000 + instances of pidgin open??? === brad[] is now known as brad[werk] [17:12] what's the name of the service you can run that will sync linux accounts across multiple computers? [17:13] switch10_: well, it doesn't - it closes automatically if there's another instance open [17:13] researcher1: i guess my main piece of advice is to be careful with the changes you make :) i've only added/removed kernels with it - i mess up, i can just choose a different kernel [17:13] hydoskee ubuntuOne [17:13] switch10_: so I think it's a good idea [17:13] frxstrem: I doubt that.. [17:13] zaxonspox: more for all linux instead of just ubuntu [17:13] switch10_: why? [17:13] researcher1: if you manage to make it so grub can't even load any kernel, just pop in a livecd and cp the grub.cfg.bak back to grub.cfg [17:13] frxstrem: because thats not what programs do. [17:13] frxstrem: most* [17:14] well, it does (have you ever tried it with Pidgin?) [17:14] frxstrem: but go ahead and try [17:14] ok [17:14] frxstrem: to set up a cronjob edit your crontab. === arvind_k is now known as arvind_khadri [17:15] frxstrem: or point it to a file..

[17:27] no, alt tab brings me to another window [17:27] I have a single terminal window [17:27] but I went view > split view (left right) [17:27] under, netbooks have limits [17:28] jjjoomla wine shouldnt have anything to do with NIC [17:28] under, try less resolution/bitrate, or try upgrading the RAM [17:28] Beyecixramd: in windows works. [17:28] using bsplayer [17:28] lubse CTRL+ALT+ [17:28] under that's because driver devs are more focused in Windows, sadly... [17:28] hmm, maybe this is a kubuntu thingy [17:28] is the terminal different in KDE? [17:28] under either that, or you don't really have drivers installed [17:29] zaxonspox, how do I reinstall my NIC ? [17:29] under install vlc vlc-plugin-esd [17:29] ctrl + alt + arrow types: ACD ..

[17:33] BluesKaj: gnome is using gnome-terminal, kde is using konsole, so there are difference in the terminal but not in the shell they are using (bash) [17:33] iceroot ...split as manyn hairs asyou want , it's all the same for the cli [17:34] IdleOne: Here some more info on error [17:34] Beyecixramd, I've tried to add vga=X (I tried differents...) it change resolution but I only see color shapes instead letters...

How do you do this in 9.10? [17:45] jsec_laptop: yah. if meeboo can be desktop app, it is the best messenger client for me [17:45] tt_: run sudo apt-get remove firefox --purge [17:46] tt_: then install firefox back again (from Synaptic) [17:46] jenue: i'm waiting for the *nix port for Digsby, it's what I use on my M$ box [17:46] sounds like it should work, thank you [17:46] jsec_laptop: why? i find Kopete beautiful, stable, fast and feature-complete [17:46] yw, tt_ [17:47] I can see why z is for gzip, but why j for bzip2?

[17:47] jsec_laptop: nice point, yup [17:47] jsec_laptop: what about meebo?

[17:54] I need some help [17:54] I get slightly irritated when my computer tells me things like "Unsupported CPU" and i'm thinking, it can't be that unsupported, you are running code on it to display this message to me [17:55] for some reason when I log in it doesnt actually log in it brings me back to the login screen [17:55] countes where, in VirtualBox virtual machine? [17:55] no [17:55] not in a virtual machine [17:56] it accepts my password and acts like it is going to login and then it brings me back [17:56] oh I am running ubuntu 10.04 [17:56] forgot to mention [17:56] works thanks [17:56] its a similar frustration to when I'm booting up some linux and it's looking all nice and pretty and half graphical to show me my options, but then just fails to show me a terminal after booting; I think, but you were just using some working driver to show me those options, why can't you use that one?

Is there anyone in here good at debugging libvirt errors? Every time I try to start my VM via virt-manager I am told that the connection was refused (socket error). Any thoughts? [17:57] mde_: have you seen the links provided in !sound? [17:57] anyone know of an alsa IRQ channel? [17:58] How can there be 1539 people in the room? [17:58] This must be madness.

I hope so. 99.9% of people better be quiet. [17:59] is there a well-known channel to ask development (C) questions? [17:59] gunksta no idea about virt, but you can use VirtualBox it is also pretty good [17:59] egc I'm a developer, you can private message me. [17:59] egc: ##c [18:00] evenin' all [18:00] I have an weird issue with my pc. I'm accessing to it from the office, through internet. The port I'm using for the ssh connection is the 80.

[18:00] how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer?????? [18:01] how do I see which version of ubuntu was originally installed on a machine?

[18:02] zaxonspox: thanks, but I've already made the VM, plus I'm leery of Oracle and it VirtualBox development will continue as it has in the past. [18:03] zaxonspox: and, the VM works great via KVM command-line options, I'd just like to use libvirt to manage it. [18:03] Hi. I'm going to browse some larger source trees. I am looking for an application to browse sources with syntax highlighting and hyperlinking. Which one would you recommend? [18:03] gunksta VB is from Sun Microsystems, Orcale only took over Sun [18:03] \search [18:04] here to help [18:04] sun microsystems is not sun? [18:04] zaxonspox: ???

[18:05] gunksta i will, something to search for? [18:05] my system rebooted last night for an unknown reason [18:05] caution: linux rarely needs to be rebooted because of updates [18:06] IdleOne: in fact, only kernel upgrades and not much else [18:06] Beyecixramd: even then not always [18:06] how can I tell why/what rebooted my system? [18:06] how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer?????? [18:06] I hate rebooting my computer as much as I hated rebooting Star Trek [18:07] evening [18:07] can i have 10.04 and 9.10? [18:07] in two separate partitions? yes, neospreshaw [18:07] neospreshaw: on separate partitions yes [18:07] you now the live cd wat haping to it [18:08] .exit [18:08] you now the live cd wat haping to it? [18:08] how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer?????? [18:08] can get 1 [18:09] neospresaw: yes it donw [18:09] :( [18:10] hmmm, maybe I should assign more CPUs to this vm before building squid... [18:10] if only CPUs were hot swappable :P [18:11] so\ [18:11] z [18:11] LOL nastjuid [18:11] I'm glad someone got that [18:11] but it's a good idea, when you remove all CPUs available, the system goes into sleep mode [18:12] well, it's a 16 core machine.. I /should/ be using distcc, but I don't have time to set stuff up [18:13] I've been sleeping in the office for the last 3 days [18:13] haha [18:13] how the hell cna i run msn [18:14] Run winblows for MSN [18:14] at least I realized that squid3 from apt isn't 3.1 like the squid-cache site says and am no longer banging my head on my desk wondering why ipv6 isn't working :P [18:14] neospreshaw: pidgin [18:14] i h8 [18:14] is a irc clint [18:14] to me [18:15] irssi + screen [18:15] how can I send myself an email from my ubuntu command line? [18:15] Androidirc client ftw [18:16] you can [18:16] but i donot now Sory [18:17] bondiblueos9: you need to install a mail backend first. Does your ISP provide an smtp server? [18:17] Mail (your address) -s"subject" enter, type message, the hit [18:17] . And enter [18:18] send-mail: fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf: No such file or directory [18:19] for JUST msn i`d probably use emesene [18:21] How can I change charset in terminal to one that is'nt already in the list? [18:21] neospreshaw: lol, did you just said Pidgin is an IRC client? === RaMcHiP is now known as RaMcHiP-Away [18:22] how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer?????? [18:22] it is [18:22] that too [18:22] :) [18:22] neospreshaw: i think Microsoft caught your brain, all that blinky stuff... god, in Linux we love useful, simple and integrated tools, not things like WLM which don't care about your desktop theme, and has thousands of effects [18:23] tar-: he said that because Pidgin is "ugly" for him/her [18:23] oh [18:23] <36DAAID64> There are pretty linux msn apps too :) [18:23] <36DAAID64> plus you can run WLM in wine... [18:23] Empathy works nicely. [18:24] test [18:24] 36DAAID64: looool.... you need to "patch" wine to run WLM in Wine, and also, there isn't really a "good looking" MSN client in Linux [18:24] Beyecixramd: it depends on what you're looking for. Chatting with friends? Empathy works perfect. [18:24] except Kmess, maybe, which uses KDE, and looks a bit off on a GNOME enviroment [18:25] h00k: lol... i don't even use WLM, i was talking about someone who asked for a "pretty" WLM client... [18:25] h00k: i use Pidgin, with Jabber [18:25] thank you, configure script. thank you for not being able to find ANY of the paths needed for placing files in PATH [18:25] <36DAAID64> Beyecixramd: I like the way pidgin looks better than WLM, I find the WLM interface cloggy and annoying [18:25] I'm trying to setup dancer-services (IRCd services) and keep getting this error: "Server Error: Closing Link: services. (No C/N conf lines)". Any ideas? [18:26] hi, my other Linux is installed on /dev/sda8, but i cannot reach it - using GRUB in ubuntu terminal, I type 'install (hd0,7)' and a whole bunch of parameters, but it says 'error 21, disk does not exist' - hints & tips anyone?

[18:28] Flare-Laptop: this is WLM running in ubuntu, we were talking about how there is no pretty msn messenger client in ubuntu, and I was pointing out that the microsoft client runs in wine well [18:29] when I type "groups" at the cli, it shows all the groups I'm a member of except for "staff"... is this normal? [18:29] inglor: Ahh I gotcha === werdan7_ is now known as werdan7 [18:29] the worst move Microsoft ever did was banning old WLM clients in favour of WLM 2009 [18:29] and btw, inglor, i loved WLM 8.0 beta... everything got worse after that... have you seen WLM 2010? it's even more bloatware/blingware [18:30] i <3 Ubuntu!

[18:30] me > linux [18:30] Beyecixramd: ever since I used gaim (pidgin) I never looked back, its interface is so much better than the microsoft interface, and it lets me use everything I need in one place (especially facebook chat and gtalk) [18:30] maeon3: i agree, but god, we're in a Ubuntu channel, please..

[18:31] thebruce, you want to image your ubuntu machine or windows? [18:31] umm, like Ghost [18:31] thebruce: you probably would want to install VirtualBox OSE, to run virtual machines (eg: Ubuntu Lucid) [18:32] i want to create an image of my ubuntu machine [18:32] Beyecixramd, good point [18:32] thebruce, oh! there are quite a few alternatives that work as well [18:32] thebruce, partimage works just fine [18:32] hi, I want to remap my extra mouse buttons into keyboard numpad. I play dota in linux and it would be very nice if I could press mouse button and make it use numpadnumber which in the game lets me use inventory. how do I remap the button to the key? [18:32] mezquitale, yea? is that in the repos? [18:32] Beyecixramd: try 'testdisk' to run lucid as a virtual machine [18:32] thebruce, yup yup [18:32] :| what? monkey [18:32] monkey_dust* [18:32] mezquitale, nice. does it run from inside of ubuntu? or do you have to boot to a live environment === noel is now known as Guest60429 [18:33] thebruce: virtual machine == window running another OS [18:33] inside your current os == no rebooting required :D [18:33] Beyecixramd, yeah i know about Vm's just didn't consider it [18:33] thebruce, try clonezilla for ghost under linux [18:33] thebruce: I've never used it myself, but if you google, you'll find "ghost for linux"... [18:33] my manager likes clonezilla [18:33] and he doesn't like many thing [18:33] i used be a windows/apple guy before i fell in love with android and ubuntu [18:33] thebruce: also, look at 'dd' [18:33] s/thing/things/ [18:34] thebruce, what are you attempting to accomplish? [18:34] thebruce: great move :) [18:34] inglor going to create an image of my ext3 partition [18:34] thebruce, depends on what you want to do, you can run it on live CD or live environment, live CD is obviously so you can work on your working hard drive, I used partimage to upgrade my HD, partimaged my XP partition, restored to new HD, then installed ubuntustudio from DVD [18:34] inglor: have you tried Kopete, btw? [18:34] thebruce, clonezilla is what you're looking for [18:34] I wrote a script that symlinks /dev/tape to the highest numbered /dev/nstX [18:35] if I want that to run at startup, where do I put it? [18:35] Hello. It´s possible to have the live Ubuntu version being booted not from the CD but from an external USB drive ? [18:35] etc/fstab? [18:35] bondiblueos9: /etc/rc.local is the easiest solution [18:35] well, actually I guess I could put it as @reboot in crontab [18:35] yes DanDare [18:35] Beyecixramd: tried Kopete, it's nice, but I still like pidgin better, if does everything I need it to do... will probably switch to empathy for better OS integration when I upgrade to lucid [18:35] bondiblueos9: but you can look into writting a udev rule for the tape [18:35] thebruce, where should I start looking for it ? [18:35] there is a utility to create a usbdrive when you run the livecd [18:35] DanDare: use unetbootin, available for Win and Linux [18:35] DanDare, yes, but you need a computer able to boot from usb [18:36] Who is the Chinese people? [18:36] inglor, I know this [18:36] yeah or unetbootin [18:36] !cn | tom [18:36] tom: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [18:36] DanDare are you in windows machine now? [18:36] thebruce, this utility is included in the CD,... so just choose to install Ubuntu and choose the external drive ? [18:36] thebruce, yes, win7 right now [18:37] erUSUL: my problem is actually this: my external tape drive is /dev/st0 if it is powered on at boot, but I would instead like my internal tape drive to always be /dev/st0; would a udev rule be able to fix that? [18:37] DanDare: that's not the way, use the specific USB creator from inside the LiveCD [18:37] #join linuxazur [18:37] no DanDare. when you boot to the livecd. go to System-Admin-Usb Start Creator [18:37] Thank you! [18:37] DanDare: have look here before you do anything..http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ [18:37] nice [18:37] join #linuxazur [18:37] OR DanDare you can download unetbootin on windows and choose the .iso and the distro [18:37] thanks thebruce. thanks inglor and you all [18:37] watoo it's /join #channel [18:37] watoo: /join [18:37] no problem DanDare [18:38] thanks idleone [18:38] thebruce, the embeded Ubuntu facility sounds more reasonable right ? [18:38] DanDare, i've used both [18:38] i guess unetbootin is nice so you don't have to boot from a livedisk [18:38] llright [18:38] I see [18:38] bondiblueos9: really dunno for sure; you can try look here http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html [18:38] Will check about unetbootin [18:38] unetbootin does a TON of distros [18:39] bondiblueos9: you can give them more descriptive names like /dev/internal_tape i guess [18:39] sounds very cool [18:39] all you do is tell it which distro. point to the .iso and point to the usb drive [18:39] lemme give you alink DanDare [18:39] thebruce: if you have the .ISO, you don't need to specify the distro [18:39] thebruce: also, for some, you don't need the Distro and it will grab it from the internets === RaMcHiP-Away is now known as RaMcHiP [18:39] ahhh yeah trie [18:39] thebruce: the distro selector will automatically download the ISO to install [18:39] good point Beyecixramd [18:39] http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ [18:40] sudo apt-get update [18:40] Beyecixramd, is there any Linux distro that is as nice as Ubuntu?

The computer appears to run pretty warm. There were a couple of times in my ubuntu 9.04 installation when it shut down. When I tried to upgrade it to 9.10, it got even worse.

[18:46] monkey_dust, it could also be that youre using the wrong index, grub2 and grub legacy start counting partitions differently, I think grub legacy started at 0, grub2 starts at 1 so your 7th partition in your first hard drive would be /dev/sda7 [18:46] is there an easy eay to *install* to a usb disk? not a liveusb system, a system where the root drive is a partition *on* the usb disk? [18:46] do enyone now some programs to instantly display all system informations --cpu ,temp,on screen [18:46] DanDare: there are 64bit equivalents for most software, yeah.

[18:48] i want to *install*, the same way you would with *ubiquity* [18:49] blendmaster1024, installing into USB kinda makes it live USB except the installation is permanent === seidl_ is now known as _rot_ [18:49] okay, blendmaster1024, you lost your right to get your answer [18:49] DanDare: And I need to extend the swap. Please help [18:49] at least from me, blendmaster1024 [18:49] vng, allright, you run fdisk, delete the swat partition, then create a new one (with the same fdisk). After creation you can use 'mkswap' to set it [18:49] prettyhatem: I just did. There's nothing there, is there? [18:49] vng, this ara the general steps [18:50] vng, take a look into mkswap command and fdisk [18:50] vng use GParted select SWAP and Resize it [18:50] Losha: nope its pretty bad.... Do you know of any kind of hard drive benchmarking software I could install? [18:50] vng, http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_admin/x1762.html [18:50] zvacet: Hmmm, that doesn't seem to show things i brought down with apt-get build-dep ? or at least it's not organized... I have an idea, could someone PM me with what packages "apt-get build-dep wesnoth" attempts to install? [18:50] DanDare, zaxonspox : Thank you! [18:50] vng: 3 ways: expand the existing swap partition, add a new swap partition, or add a swap file... [18:50] vng: shrunk partition next to swap and on that unalocated space extend swap [18:51] vng, this sounds good for you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1262862 but not read or tested [18:51] Losha just for info, which way would you choose? [18:51] prettyhatem: I just use dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/diskdrive to get a rough idea of throughput. [18:51] ASULutzy : they are deb files right? you should be able to find them by day of installation [18:51] Losha: awesome thanks [18:51] Thanks all, I'm refering your links [18:52] konnichiwa? [18:52] prettyhatem: be careful, don't do that on a drive with data! [18:52] vng, you can delete the actual swap partition and do what "dstew" say on that post [18:52] what's the major differents between of debian and ubuntu ? [18:52] haha was just going to ask that [18:52] prettyhatem: that command will write zeroes to your drive [18:52] Losha: be careful when telling people that command. [18:53] zaxonspox: well, there's nothing significant between them in terms of performance, so it depends if the existing partition is easily expandable or not, or if there's room to add a new one. If not, then a swapfile is the way to go... [18:53] ASULutzy, check wesnoth in synaptic [18:53] yeah, it´s like "press ALT+F4" to fix it now [18:53] zvacet: Basically, something got corrupted in my 10.04 install. I just installed a fresh 10.04 in a VM and I am able to compile wesnoth from source. I attempted to run sudo debsums -a -s to check if maybe a cosmic ray did it, but that didn't lead anywhere. So I'm attempting to reinstall the packages that "apt-get build-dep wesnoth" brought down... As a side question, is there any chance that being on a pae kernel could cause gcc to segfault? (that's the real p [18:53] I need help getting my logitech camera working in skype [18:54] Has anyone used Bonnie to check their drives? [18:54] prettyhatem: thanks for watching my back, h00k, I *meant* to say dd if=/dev/zero of= [18:54] zvacet: So yea, fresh 10.04 install in a VM, compiles fine, my host 10.04 install, gcc segfaults, I may just reinstall clean, might be easier than trying to figure out what is going on [18:54] Losha: either way, it is still dangerous telling people that command if they don't understand what it does.

Sometimes I forget. prettyhatem: are you listening? [18:55] I need help getting my logitech camera working in skype [18:55] monkey_dust, you have to enter what settings manually?!? can you boot up to your linux OS? [18:55] bluelaguna https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Uninstalling%20GRUB%202 [18:56] Losha: yeah I am hearing this, thanks for the info though. I was gonna ask if it was gonna zero out the drive [18:56] zaxonspox: thanks [18:56] mezquitale: i am in linux now, so yes [18:56] mezquitale: but there is no menu anymore [18:56] prettyhatem: there's a disk utility that can be used to benchmark your drive [18:56] monkey_dust, so you installed grub2 in your MBR? you have more than one OS on your machine? [18:56] I need help getting my logitech camera working in skype [18:57] BluesKaj: I need 1.8, not 1.65, zvacet: It's not really a 10.04 specific issue per say. Which is why I asked the question is there a simple way to get a list of what apt-get build-dep packageName pulls down. If I look at the dependencies in synaptic it just lists like wesnoth-data (and not libs and stuff). Anyway, forget it, I'll just reinstall, not worth chasing so many phantoms down, though I am a little scared that somehow something got seriously busted (ei [18:57] prettyhatem: I don't remember what it's functions are on Karmic, but on Lucid it can do a read-only benchmark and a read/write benchmark on a fresh drive [18:57] I'm following this tutorial: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/02/howto-mplayer-with-coreavc-better-hd.html | I've a problem @ this step $make : http://pastie.org/923536 . THANKS!! [18:57] h00k: is it called bonnie? I just did some google searches [18:57] mezquitale: yes, ubuntu, centos and mint [18:57] prettyhatem: no, it is in System -> Adminsitration -> Disk Utility [18:57] mezquitale: the MBR is not big enoughm to store *anything* at all, you only can store there a link to the actual bootloader [18:57] ahh okay [18:57] monkey_dust, sudo update-grub, then reboot [18:57] aw rite [18:58] Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to set windows to load up on the next boot? [18:58] h00k: oh you mean that Palimpsest Disk Utility [18:58] h00k: yeah I am trying to find any kind of documentation on that program but cant really === bullgard is now known as bullgard4 [18:58] test12349: it is possible to set up Windows to load automatically EVERY time [18:58] prettyhatem: that's it, yeah. [18:58] Beyecixramd, precisely, sometimes grub2 needs a little help after you install on MBR to link to the whatever OS bootloaders you want it to point to, upgrade-grub usually does the trick [18:59] oh look, it works when I use the right port :( [18:59] ubottu: tell test12349 about grub2 [18:59] test12349, please see my private message [18:59] I'm following this tutorial: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/02/howto-mplayer-with-coreavc-better-hd.html | I've a problem @ this step $make : http://pastie.org/923536 . THANKS!! [18:59] hello, i once asked in #ubuntu.de before, but didn't get a solution, so i ask my question here again: If i plug in my NTFS-formatted usb-drive (running gnome as desktop) the drive gets mounted autimatically. The problem i have is that the files on the drive are then mounted with the ownership jabba:jabba. But I want it mounted as jabba:users. If I put an according line in the fstab (defining uid and gid) gnome shows me an error when i plu [18:59] g in the decice, telling me that the unprevileged user can't mount this. [19:00] ubottu: tell nastjuid about grub2 [19:00] nastjuid, please see my private message [19:00] hello, I work with big datasets, I was wondering if there is a good replacement program for office Excel 2010, open office is not good, because it can only read 1/3 of the dataset due max columns and rows reached [19:00] please, shorter questions, jabba, that amount of text is annoying/unreadable [19:00] Beyecixramd, sorry i wanted to be as precise as possible [19:00] can anyone point me to a good tutorial on how to completely clone my drive with Ubuntu to another new drive "bigger drive" with everything i have already installed etc. [19:00] lubse: Numeric perhaps? [19:00] lubse, you can run excel with wine if you'd like [19:01] note the directory it's mounted to, remove drive, create directory, set chown -R jabba:users /media/mountpoint [19:01] jabba, say your problem, then answer questions, don't put that amount of text, because it's almost impossible to read it having in mind the amount of people asking here at the same time [19:01] nastjuid, i did [19:01] chrometiger: see the man page for 'dd' [19:01] :| [19:01] chrometiger, try partimage [19:01] lubse: http://projects.gnome.org/gnumeric/ [19:02] Beyecixramd: its not what i meant, [19:02] k, everything i see on dd say's i need to make a partition on the new drive exact same size is this true [19:02] jabba: lot of short attention spans around. Try adding the user option from the 'man mount' page. Not sure if it works for ntfs volumes... [19:02] chrometiger: you could then resize it [19:03] ah [19:03] chrometiger: once it's on the other drive, with gparted [19:03] i asked if it is possible to set (while on ubuntu, not the bios or anything lower like GRUB) the next boot to be windows [19:03] so i can "click a button" instead of waiting for grub to load and change the boot [19:03] Smoodo, this can deal with big datasets? [19:03] nastjuid, i discovered that the problem is ntfs-3g not having fuse built in. Losha the weird thing is, that if i do "sudo mount /media/mountpoint" froma console it works fine. (and yes I used "users" as an option) [19:04] if i do it with the user jabba from the console i get the same error, but why does it work without the fstab line then? [19:04] was going to ask if you were using native or ntfs-3g. I was under the impression that ntfs-3g had all options built in, and you'd only need to install fuse and re-attach to make it work [19:05] I've built my own version/package of wpasupplicant and installed it. Now apt-get wants to replace it with ubuntu's standard version/package. How do I make apt "accept" my new version/package? [19:05] jabba: i try not to question why things work when they finally work :) [19:05] alguém teve problemas para instalar o receitanet ? [19:05] !es | zoopi [19:05] zoopi: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [19:06] is there a way to use 'dpkg' to look to the description of a the original file in the package ? like the modification date and the size ? [19:06] jabba: I thought the point of the 'users' option is so you don't have to sudo to mount the volume... [19:06] dpkg -L only lists the files without more info [19:06] Losha, exactly [19:07] can someone help me get my logitech webcam to work in skype? [19:08] can someone help me get my logitech webcam to work in skype? [19:08] muskask8, once is enough [19:08] muskask8, more details :) [19:08] plug it in, plug it in [19:08] * nastjuid flinches [19:09] nastjuid, what did you mean with native ntfs? [19:09] well it's a logitech quickcam cummunicate stx, the video part with work in cheese, except it won't record, only take pictures, and when I try using it in skype there's nothing [19:09] isn't that all ntfs-3g nowadays? [19:09] Procule: If you have the deb file, you can use dpkg --contents to see an ls -l type listing of the contents. Does that help? [19:10] the last time I built a kernel, I noted there was native ntfs with write support [19:10] that was years ago, though [19:10] when I was masochistic and used gentoo [19:10] w/o write support [19:10] me too :) [19:10] Losha, thanks [19:10] then i was enlighted by ubuntu :D [19:11] after years of compiling [19:11] lubse: Just a second.. I'm going to test with a CSV with a few million rows. [19:11] hell, i woulda switched to anything with public package repositories and didn't have to wait for everything to build [19:11] jabba: amen... [19:11] though it never got boring [19:11] jabba: i took a step back and looked at the 6 machines running distcc and ccache and decided it was time to do things easier [19:12] hrhr [19:14] why does the Remote Desktop server in Ubuntu only work when I don't need it, and not when I actually need it? [19:14] frxstrem: murphy's law :( [19:14] to not let you get bored [19:14] hi [19:15] h00k: haha :) well, it does makes sense [19:15] the only 'murhpy's law' I know, is "An ale at 5, and each hour after" [19:16] Is there a nintendo DS emulator for ubuntu?

I've just installed windows7 and ubuntu 9.10, but now i cannot enter windows [19:21] AnxiousNut: odd, didn't find it in my 9.10, maybe it's in the 9.04 repos, well good luck with it, worked for me [19:21] !dualboot [19:21] Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [19:21] bondiblueos9, try installing udev [19:21] inglor: but frxstrem found it in 9.10, go check again [19:21] bondiblueos9: apt-get install udev [19:21] the LTR for Ubuntu is 9.04, Right?

Alltray seems to do so [19:57] Dr_Willis: Yep, guessed right :D [19:57] Question: What's the name for the toolkit that allows you to display "windows" on the command line? it looks similar to windows 95 [19:57] <[Spooky]> zaxonspox: Ah that did the trick, thanks.. ;) [19:57] theadmin: :) i recall several for windows that also do that. [19:58] Dr_Willis: Who cares of windows? That app (Teamviewer) DOES minimize to tray on Windows [19:58] hey i need to limit access to a user to just a few commands...like tar... [19:58] when i am trying to connect to my network using 802.11, my "networkmanager applet" icon will disappear from the system tray. how can i get it back? [19:58] does that make sence? [19:59] theadmin TV does minimize, by its own menu [19:59] theadmin: i belive with the gnome-3 stuff 'in the works' they are trying to clarify what stuff should and shoudent go to the tray :) we will have to see if things get better organized. It would be nice to have some sort of 'place' one can stick any app/minimuzed to get it out of the way [19:59] zaxonspox: In the Linux release? [19:59] what is the first alphabetical character? [20:00] I mean, which character is sorted first [20:00] bleh, alltray misunderstood what i want to minimize XD and it minimizes TV's contact list, not the thing itself [20:00] probably some punctuation [20:00] the admin i have tested it yesterday, but as i remeber, ther was a small menu with arrow to doe many things [20:01] bondiblueos9: what app ? usually that things depend on the locale [20:01] theadmin: maybe devilspie? or something like that. I forget the name [20:01] another key layout related problem: the default configuration for the win key before lucid allowed me to configure in the Keyboard Shortcuts window, that win key pressed opened terminals. Now any option under Keyboard->Options->Alt/Win Key behaviour does not change the win key from being interpreted as Mod4 [20:01] -d+s [20:02] erUSUL: tar; I want to tar a bunch of files but I want to rename a specific one so that it is listed by tar -t at the beginning of the archive [20:02] hi folks [20:04] Is there a document that shows how to force updates to an ubuntu machine? We've got a number of kiosks for a lbirary and want to force them to just blindly isntall updates. bonus points for emails on errors. [20:04] bondiblueos9: I don't think tar sorts the files, so if you name them members explicitly they will get tar-ed in the order on the command line. Try it and see... [20:05] SirStan: pass -y to aptitude [20:05] Since a recent upgrade of firefox I'm no longer able to access hotmail. Anyone else seen this problem? [20:05] how to convert jpg to pdf?

[20:36] silentx, If you put mp3's on a cd you will be able to fit a lot more than the 80 mins of uncompressed sound onto it [20:36] silentx: yup that is how it works. data will use the 700mb, audio cd will use 80 min [20:36] you cant access gui from livecd? [20:36] then is it going to work on my CD player ? [20:36] has anyone installed ubuntu on a new macbook pro? [20:36] rrstiff: sudo cp will do it. [20:36] So to sum it up, just burn the mp3 files to cd under the 'data' option [20:37] Yes, I can access the GUI, I just thought typing the commands from the terminal might be the way to go. Is there a better way? [20:37] silentx, if your cd player will play mp3s [20:37] curious if it works, especially with the new 15" hybrid model [20:37] or sudo rsync [20:37] silentx: if it supports mp3 files [20:37] :S is that automatically ? :S [20:37] silentx: if you burn it as an audio project it should. if you burn it as data it will work on some [20:37] in terminal - write: sudo nautilus [20:37] you should get superuser nautilus [20:38] !ca [20:38] :S I've Installed nerolinux but it also doesn't give this options as in windows but oky i will try it thanks alot [20:38] Canadian Ubuntu users can be found in #ubuntu-ca [20:38] how do i change the text in ubuntu so instead of outputting: left to right, top to bottom its outputted top to bottom, left to right?

[21:00] robertf: but tried it on a PC with Intel gfx and X freezes every 10 minutes or so [21:01] im using 9.10 can i get 10.04 [21:01] or xubnutu [21:01] ubottu: STFU! [21:01] hi. running live cd. trying to get backup to format system. but some of the files got corrupted and im not able to copy / delete them anymore. I get "Input / output Error" when i do sudo rm -rf * . cant go to windows. forums have that as the only solution.. [21:01] robertf: having the same prob with 9.10 on the machine [21:01] neospreshaw, yes. u can upgrade anytime [21:01] ttl- because integrated Intel GFX [21:01] neospreshaw: you can, but note that 10.04 probably won't be stable for another couple of months yet... [21:02] zaxonspox: yes [21:02] How can I get a list of the packages (.deb files) on the 9.10 install CD? I can get a list of packages on my up-to-date system and diff them. [21:02] ttl-: Is the problem reported? [21:02] chrometiger: what are you compiling anyway? if there is also a version of that in the repos you can do "sudo apt-get build-dep " to get building dependencies [21:02] zaxonspox: 82945G [21:02] is there any problem with the Ubuntu software's center? I'm downloading 500B/S :| [21:02] helo: stay polite please [21:02] ubuntu: what are you trying to do? [21:02] guntbert: but i really hate ubottu :( === help is now known as Guest75671 [21:02] ttl- but problems by working? or installing? [21:02] NO THE OLD 1.04 [21:02] bLACKLOTUS|: pulling 329kb/s here [21:03] bLACKLOTUS|: try a different server/mirror/what's it called for software sources [21:03] bLACKLOTUS|, try a different mirror ? [21:03] helo: if you want to stay here - stay polite [21:03] histo: im trying to move some data from my hard drive to portable drive (ntfs) [21:03] zaxonspox: working, random freezes, keyboard and mouse get unusable, ssh login works still [21:03] ok, thank you all === ubuntu is now known as ghufran [21:04] Are there users using Lucid in command line? [21:04] walt_: for your friend, the only way I can think of is to get someone who has an up-to-date 9.10 installation to send you a list of the packages on their system. Then you could download them manually, burn them to CD, and take them to your friend. See also http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/ [21:04] histo: i was copying data when the cable got removed and now its not letting me delete those files. [21:05] ttl- did you need to compile something or get some pkg or it is working from kernel? [21:05] zaxonspox: for 9.10 it seemed to work after install from CDROM until i installed all updates [21:05] E: Unable to lock the download directory [21:05] kernel pnnick pics [21:05] neospreshaw: I don't understand you. What is 1.04? [21:05] ttl- i have a comp with 82845 chip and couldn make a proper driver [21:05] ttl-: i only use main tree [21:06] I just installed ubuntu on my main hard disk, and when I connect the ethernet cord (directly from the modem) to the comp it doesn't recognize the connection. Although, when I plug the cord in this computer the internet works fine? what packet should I dl, or settings should I manually put in to ensure the connection? [21:06] Thanks, Losha, I'll do that. I'd hoped I could eliminate the packages on the 9.10 install CD [21:06] Sk_Lg: doesnt look like an issue with ubuntu [21:06] should I reinstall then? [21:07] zaxonspox: it seems there is no driver, i looked in the xorg log, there is a error of X being unable to load i810 module and loads the VESA module [21:07] Sk_Lg try the command "sudo ifup -a" after you plug the cable in. [21:07] because after putting some manual info in, I got a response on the network activity [21:07] ttl- i get it [21:07] Sk_Lg: it might be an issue with the cable. is it cross over? are u setting up the modem for the first time? === reh_cubitus is now known as regfra [21:07] walt_: I understand. The only way I know to do that is to install 9.10 from CD, make a list of its packages (dpkg --get-selections "*") then update, then relist the packages, and subtract the first list from the second... [21:08] zaxonspox: i810 (Module does not exist, 0) or something like that [21:08] no, it used to run to a router, and the internet worked fine before the C: format and installation of ubuntu [21:08] zaxonspox: but the system does not hang, i'm able to login with ssh after freeze [21:08] Losha: 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope [21:09] I guess I'll (dpkg --get-selections "*") on my up-to-date system, DL ALL the .debs, and do the filtering on his system. Thanks, Bye. [21:09] Anyone having issues with live.gnome.org? [21:09] no [21:09] Sk_Lg: then try "ifup -a" in terminal [21:10] ubuntu keeps freezing on me [21:10] Hey WeblionX, I'm still getting the networking issues. It's so strange. One minute the page works and then I follow a link on the same domain and everything and it sits there loading forever [21:10] Jaunty Jackalope? can i get it [21:10] walt_: all the debs you've downloaded since install should be in /var/cache/apt/archive unless you cleared the cache... [21:10] roderick: intel GFX ? [21:10] wrong channel, sry [21:10] not sure just randomly freezes [21:11] roderick: same here, seems to be related to my intel integrated GFX adapter 82945G/GZ [21:12] any ideas? [21:12] roderick: system freezes, keyboard and mouse are unusable, ssh login works so the machine is not hanging [21:12] hi all [21:12] got a q... is it wise to use prelink in xubuntu karmic? [21:12] Anyone having issues with live.gnome.org? the site is reseting connection in firefox [21:13] ttl any ideas? [21:13] why is there a key next to a drive in gparted? i cant format it [21:13] ghufran: it is mounted? [21:13] ghufran key by which partition? it means it is locked [21:13] roderick: do you also have onboard intel gfx? [21:13] im not sure [21:14] roderick: lspci ? [21:14] erUSUL, yes [21:14] roderick lspci | grep VGA [21:14] ? [21:14] perscitus: can't open it in Firefox [21:14] roderick: open a terminal and type "lspci " without the quotes [21:14] oh [21:14] anyone has experience with prelink? [21:14] ghufran: umount it; you can not format a mounted partition [21:14] mccool_1985, I want to download evince for windows but i cant. Gnome live appears down [21:15] what am i looking for? [21:15] roderick for your video card [21:15] roderick: do what zaxonspox said give less more accurate output [21:15] if there isn't a response from sudo ifup -a, what is another way I could connect? [21:15] erUSUL, zaxonspox: how do i 'unlock' it. im f*cked. system crashed. and cant even take backup now because the disk seems to be in corrpted state :S [21:15] !language | ghufran [21:15] ghufran: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [21:16] could I get information from the internet source on this computer input in the network info? [21:16] oh i have a radeon 9600 [21:16] roderick: you are looking for a line like this: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) [21:16] ghufran: if partition is mounted, unmount it to remove keys in Gparted [21:16] h00k, sorry. i thought i used a '*' :P [21:16] ghufran: as i said gparted wont touch a mounted partition you have to umount it [21:16] roderick: ok [21:16] perscitus: if you checked google, used the cached page, you should find the download link (this one is working) [21:16] perscitus: here you go: http://download.gnome.org/binaries/win32/evince/2.30/evince-2.30.0.msi [21:16] roderick: so i think you problem is not the same a mine [21:17] ghufran: obfuscated swearing is still swearing [21:17] is it possible to switch back and forth between kde and gnome? [21:17] roderick: are you able to login to the machine with ssh? [21:17] hi allz! [21:17] ssh? [21:17] erUSUL, zaxonspox: yes. didnt read ur earlier message. this xchat with the live cd doesnt change text with ur nick in the text. (bug?) [21:17] mccool_1985, it was in google result [21:17] can someone give me a clue if prelink is usefull in karmic? i have a relatively fast laptop [21:17] ghufran: dunno [21:17] roderick i have had ATI 9600 some years ago :D [21:17] h00k, haha good one. ok, ill take care [21:17] perscitus: use the provide link i gave... it workes [21:18] I have a question.I have ubuntu and can't my sprint evdo to work,It did sign on 1 time.It sees the card. [21:18] *works [21:18] mccool_1985, the link was in the google result too [21:18] can i 'test' out kde on my system and the remove it to go back to gnome? [21:18] so? [21:18] yea ive had this card for awhile [21:18] roderick: you need to install the openssh-server if you didn't already [21:19] roderick: yes from another machine [21:19] why would http://pastebin.com/59Dcdg1V as a grub.cfg just shutdown on input+enter? [21:19] thebruce: yes. Depending on your version of gdm, if you install both, it should allow you to select between kde and gnome at login time... [21:19] roderick: i'm not sure you problem is gfx related [21:19] Losha how would i go about that? [21:19] roderick: i'm not sure you problem is related to you graphics card [21:20] your* [21:20] thebruce: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/config-desktop/C/other-desktops.html [21:20] im on 9.10 shoudl that matter? Losha? [21:20] hmm...well i still need to fix it [21:20] thebruce: I don't think it will matter, but i can't guarantee it, since I'm still on 8.04... [21:21] you're still on Hardy? [21:21] wow [21:21] why not switch? [21:21] Losha yes, why? [21:21] thebruce: because 8.04 is solid as a rock... [21:21] i gave up hardy a looooong time ago [21:21] Losha gotcha [21:21] thebruce: installing kde on ubuntu is as easy as installing kubuntu-desktop package from repositories [21:21] Losha can you use most all the features 9.10 can? [21:21] it seems to only freeze when i play music [21:21] thebruce: why switch is a better question.. [21:22] switch10_, prob a good poing [21:22] thebruce: however, removing it afterwards might be problematic [21:22] b/c people like to have the latest and greatest [21:22] delac? really [21:22] thebruce: all the security fixes get backported, but not the new features. That's how come it's so stable. There aren't any 9.10 features I can't live without, so it's not an issue for me... [21:22] howdy [21:22] thebruce: yes [21:22] the latest is definitely not always the greatest... [21:23] Hi when I try to startr a parallel gnome session on the same machine by pressing alt+f2 and the entering startx -- :1 i get the error: no protocol specified. Help! [21:23] is kde 'heavier' than gnome? [21:23] thebruce: you would have to remove every backage separately [21:23] thebruce: and that is several hundreds of packages [21:23] thebruce, as far a memory is concerned YES kde is heavier then gnome [21:23] ahh ok [21:23] !(latest && greatest) [21:23] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [21:23] no need for me i have a slow system [21:23] any ideas?? [21:24] thebruce: however, if you have big hard drive, there is no reason to remove them [21:24] thebruce, a comparison of the various DEs using 10.04 http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_desktop_vitals&num=1 [21:24] thebruce: if you have a slow system, you might consider Xfce, LXDE or just a window manager instead of GNOME and KDE [21:24] thebruce: you can use whicever you want [21:24] People seem pretty brainwashed by the idea that newer is better. Works ok for refrigerators. Not so good with cars. And very poorly with software... [21:25] very cool [21:25] i gotta go thanks so much [21:25] Losha: agreed. [21:25] Losha yes, i am staing on 9.04 because Canonical took away some features [21:25] roderick: not really [21:26] zaxonspox: ah, I wondered why you were still on 9.04... [21:26] zaxonspox, like what? [21:26] dose anyone know how to remove all themes from ubuntu 9.10 [21:27] ghufran: like cool for me GDM logon screen with options like remote login (like in LiveCD) and looks like Windows login screen without Remote [21:27] i installed a theme and i cant remove it i tired from the Appearance screen to remove it but it just dosnt work .. === bLACKLOTUS_ is now known as bLACKLOTUS| [21:27] jt76: check /usr/share/themes [21:27] ? [21:28] How do I kill a panel that is set to autohide that isn't popping up??? [21:28] mccool_1985: already done removed it from there and before that i removed it from the PPT the theme is the elemantary project theme [21:28] ghufran Losha the Ub10.04 annoys me more: candy colors, moving close/min/max buttons to the left etc [21:28] ok i can talk in this irc client but cant apparently browse websites. [21:29] klrb: you know which process? check it with # ps aux | grep **processname** and kill it [21:29] klrb: or use killall *processname* [21:29] zaxonspox, im actually using 1004 live cd right now .. kinda like it .. and im sure theres some option to move the buttons? [21:29] mccool_1985, I don't know the process... is there a way to find it? [21:29] !lucid | zaxonspox, ghufran [21:29] zaxonspox, ghufran: 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 [21:29] jt76: thats as far as my knowledge goes :-) [21:29] hello all... I am completely wiping my HDD, and I will be reinstalling 9.10. Can someone help with backup questions? [21:30] k1rb: you can use *top* as well === log|out is now known as log|in [21:30] gsp2009: sure, what up? [21:30] klrb: any idea what program it is? [21:30] It's the panel that is at the bottom when you install... [21:30] k1rb: open a terminal and type: top [21:31] like the task bar [21:31] h00k, we're not discussing any issues with it .. or asking questions about Lucid [21:31] I typed top already, idk what I'm looking for === phoebus is now known as DaddyNature [21:31] mccool_1985, so I was thinking of using simplebackup... and just including my /home/user dir... then formatting, reinstalling from scratch and restoring the home dir to its own partition. You think that would work ok? [21:31] mccool_1985: Thanks for trying !!! -- Dose anyone else know how to remove a spesific theme? [21:31] ghufran: i am wondering if h00k isnt a bot like ubottu [21:31] hello, How can I get the option wpa2-business in the dialog for adding a new ssid? [21:31] Hi when I try to startr a parallel gnome session on the same machine by pressing alt+f2 and the entering startx -- :1 i get the error: no protocol specified. Help! [21:31] mccool_1985, you think I should include anything in /etc or /var or /usr? [21:31] ghufran: I'm just trying to show you a place where Lucid discussion is welcome and invited === DaddyNature is now known as Phoebus [21:32] jamil_1: you cannot start another X session i think [21:32] gsp2009: not sure... it should work i guess... on the other hand it would be an idea to resize your current partition and put your /home/user on a different partition... that way you don't have to backup anything i guess [21:33] Which version of wine is actually in the repos? [21:33] !info wine [21:33] wine (source: wine): Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library). In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.1-0ubuntu8 (karmic), package size 7359 kB, installed size 54436 kB [21:33] zaxonspox: no it used to work earlier. I dont know what happened that now it is giving error [21:33] !info wine1.2 [21:33] wine1.2 (source: wine1.2): Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library). In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.31-0ubuntu3 (karmic), package size 9065 kB, installed size 75812 kB [21:33] gsp2009: i don't think /usr should be backed up, but you might ask others about their opinion... it's just a matter of how much you want to preserve [21:34] switch10, I already have top running, It's the normal task bar that Ubuntu always has. I changed it to be on the left side of the screen instead of the bottom, and autohide... now it won't pop up and I can't click on it even though I can see part of it hiding... Also I've restarted and it hasn't changed. It still won't pop up [21:34] jamil_1: type me this cmd more, i will try by me [21:34] is there something i can do so it doesnt go so slow? [21:34] erUSUL, apt-get install wine1.12 should get the later version then? [21:34] kaolbrec: correct [21:34] zaxonspox: startx -- :1 [21:34] roderick: install ATI Prop Drivers [21:34] erUSUL, thanks [21:35] kaolbrec: they also maintaina ppa (i use it) with Candidate: 1.1.42-0ubuntu1 [21:35] is it on ati website? [21:35] mccool_1985, sorry... suffered a crash [21:35] fzaxonspox: first switch to another screen by ctl+alt + f2 [21:35] jamil_1: alright i have started it, so cmd is correct, you have some misconfig === jmrodri-afk is now known as jmrodri [21:36] help [21:36] !help [21:36] 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. :-) [21:36] jamil_1: i was searching this ability since long time [21:36] mccool_1985, so I was saying... I have a 500 gb, with a windows partition with the boot sector. Now I wanna just get rid of any memories of Billy altogether (finally) [21:36] gsp2009: IMO, only /home and half a dozen selected files from /etc need to be backed up. The rest comes back when you do an install so there's hardly any point saving them... [21:37] zaxonspox: yp. it was working fine a few day before. May be some update broke it but I want it back :( [21:37] jamil_1: just get some error or kickoff [21:37] Losha, any specifics on the files you would keep from /etc? [21:37] nas [21:37] <|Belenus|> can anyone help me fix my Eclipse on Karmic that when run, only shows a small window that cant be closed? [21:37] zaxonspox where do i install iit from? [21:37] gsp2009: files that you have edited. i.e. fstab, sources.list, etc [21:38] switch10_, :) gotcha. thanks. [21:38] zaxonspox: ?? [21:38] I'll try again. What is Plymouth? [21:38] zaxonspox: where can i download it from [21:38] Nigthy night.. [21:39] switch10_, Losha : so you think that simplebackup is a good way? or should I do a workup with rsync? [21:39] roderick: System>>Administration>>Drivers or Prop Drivers [21:39] gsp2009: i should say google some info on resizing your current partition and make another, on the other hand, is it much work to backup your /home/user on a external hdd or dvd? in that case, i should use that option... this will only preserve your downloads, documents etc... programs are lost though [21:39] Hi all, when I kill the X server my pc hangs and I have to do a cold boot, in what log should I look for information? [21:39] zaxonspox: oh ok thx [21:39] gsp2009: I knew you'd ask. It depends on what you have configured. To be safe, you might want to keep all of /etc. personally, I only keep the following /etc files: auto.*, exports, fstab, hosts, network/interfaces, passwd, sensors.conf, smartd.conf, samba/smb.conf, ssh, ssmtp, X11/xorg.conf [21:39] gsp2009: rsync is much better in my opinion... so many more options. [21:40] So what would the process be called for the default panel? [21:40] how would i run this file in ubuntu [21:40] jamil_1: desktop have started, i saw it, then i switched back to F7 , then go back to F1 and GFX get dead and console came [21:40] mccool_1985, yeah.. I have a 1 gb external... plus I will prob use aptoncd [21:40] VMware-Workstation-Full-7.0.1-227600.x86_64.bundle [21:40] zaxonspox: i cant find the drivers tab [21:40] gsp2009: but if SB does what you want, use it. [21:40] switch10_, cool. thanks. [21:40] switch10_: can you give some info about rsync? whats the benefit? [21:40] gsp2009: I've never used simplebackup. But as long as it works, and you know how to drive it, it's ok... [21:40] zaxonspox: u started on f1 or f2 ? [21:41] mccool_1985: benefit? updates only files that have changed for one.. [21:41] gah I just reinstalled but I forgot the name of a program I used all the time before. I would bind it to a key combination, and when i triggered it, a simple one line textbar would pop up on the very top of my screen, and as I typed it would narrow down possible commands to execute. for example I'd type "ope" and it would narrow it down to opera and hitting enter would fire it up. Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about? I miss it sor [21:41] roderick: it has icon of pci device with keylock [21:41] jamil_1: started on F1 [21:41] Losha, thanks., [21:41] kaolbrec: gnome-do ? [21:41] kreno5: gnome-do ? [21:41] kaolbrec: sorry; not for you [21:41] gsp2009: as someone suggested above, I keep /home on its own filesystem, so I only back it up once in a while, and those /etc files. It makes backup/restore/upgrade a snap... [21:42] zaxonspox: and there was no error ? [21:42] if I have a Pentium M, running Ubuntu 9.10, then do i get hyperthreading support ? and then, how would that manifest itself in applications such as "top" ? [21:42] mccool_1985: unbelievably versatile for 2. the man pages are about 500 pages long... [21:42] zaxonspox:it says i dont have any proprietary drivers in use [21:42] ny the way, is there anyone who has experience with using win7 in a virtualbox? i'm trying to enable direct3d using the wine3d installer or the virtualbox-additions, and i can't get it to work. I guess it's the problem with having DirectX11 in Win7 [21:42] Ex-Chat [21:42] erUSUL, I guessed ;) -- is it possible to save the ppa key somehow, and import it to software sources? === rob_p_ is now known as rob_p [21:42] switch10_: I'll dig into it tomorrow [21:42] jamil_1: no error, desktop loaded, so i switch back to F7 to tell you, when i get back to F1 terminal came with some screen error etc [21:42] !gpgerr | kaolbrec [21:42] kaolbrec: Getting GPG errors after adding custom repositories? Find the GPG keyword for the repository (it's 437D05B5 for the standard ones) and run « gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys && gpg --export --armor | sudo apt-key add - » [21:43] erUSUL, as far as I'm aware it's the uni proxy blocking gpg key transactions. I'll give it a shot though. [21:43] Losha, I think once I get my drive reformatted, and partitioned to have /home on it's own, I will set up and incremental to my external with /var and /etc... that way in the event of a failure, I am good. For now, I will just backup my user data... I just want my drive reclaimed from Windoze. [21:43] is it possible to create a pop-up message in the shell (like a warning or something like that)? [21:43] frxstrem: yes you need a packet like... [21:44] kaolbrec: maybe you can force to use http ... http://keyserver.ubuntu.com [21:44] frxstrem: zenity [21:44] how to use anjunta [21:44] erUSUL: okay, thanks :) [21:44] frxstrem: dialog [21:44] Now to decide if I am gonna chance the beta... (10.04) as a fresh install. === xiong_ is now known as xiong [21:44] zaxonspox: thanks to you too :) [21:44] how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer?????? [21:44] which apt package should I use for an apache2 installation with plans to run https and php? [21:45] gsp2009: sounds good. I think you can forget about /var. There's nothing in there worth keeping. I also keep a package list (dpkg --get-selections "*" >myselections) and the output of fdisk -l (in case something goes wrong with the partition tables) [21:45] someone know how to use anjunt [21:45] a [21:45] !lamp | Cryp71c [21:45] Cryp71c: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.

[21:47] erUSUL, trying to use http://keyserver.ubuntu.com gives me "no key data found" [21:47] zaxonspox, the code I have (and intend to run on this server) references another server on our network, but I can't change the code from "localhost", can I add in host entries to direct localhost requests to that server, would that interfere with anything else/ [21:47] erUSUL, although I'm not sure if that could be me failing to use the correct key [21:48] kaolbrec: well; just ignore the gpg warning then ;) [21:48] roderick__: ee? i dont understand. when not for Ubuntu then for what? mandriva? [21:48] erUSUL, damned proxy. I hate warning popups :( [21:48] zaxonspox: no it says i dont have any drivers in use [21:48] Hello is there an ubuntu hardware channel or I can ask my question here? [21:49] roderick__: list is enpty? or it says you are not using any drivers?

[21:50] Cryp71c: you can try it, but lots of programs use localhost to talk to processes on the same box, so I think it may rip a hole in the fabric of space and time. Be prepared to restore the former hosts file from the live cd... [21:50] out [21:50] roderick__: then try to search ati site for this drivers, the have user freandly driver search [21:50] belus, will it even run on power without the battery? [21:50] I've heard people talking that you should remove the battery and charge it...once a month...this way you will save some battery life...

[21:51] gsp2009, I didn't understood your question...I have the ac plug aswell, of course it will...with the ac cord plugged in [21:51] my mc does not show the directories in bold... Is it a bug ir a feature ?? [21:51] mitya: then you belong in #ubuntu+1 where they discuss all things 10.04... [21:51] Losha: ok [21:51] belus, take the battery out when on guaranteed AC power. [21:52] is there a program like "The Sims" for Linux? [21:52] Hi all, I want to diagnose a lockup on my pc, but all logs appear to miss it. What can I do to debug this further? [21:52] My question is what should I do, take the battery out or leave it in...will that heat damage my li ion 6 cell battery?This is what I heard [21:52] frxstrem, there's a program called "Wine" which might run the sims. [21:52] belus: with it in you have a free UPS [21:52] Cryp71c: don't you think I have already tried it - it does only run The Sims 3 (according to the Wine AppDB), which my computer is far too old to run anyway [21:52] erUSUL, I know but I don't need one really, I'm not working on super stuff and my power connection is very good:) no electricity crashes and so [21:52] belus, I am assuming it is a laptop? In my experience, some will not run without the battery as it is required to complete the circuit. Did you try it? as as erUSUL said, you are conditioning your power with the battery in it. No data loss on power outage. [21:53] belus: sorry i missed the first part of your question, but if you are trying to conserve your battery, leave it a a 30% charge, and store it in the fridge [21:53] roderick__: Linux x86 if you have 32 bit ver, if not, then 64 [21:53] switch10_, fridge?:) [21:53] belus: yes. it is the coolest place i could think of.. [21:54] switch10_, If i store it in in my desk wouldn't that be ok? [21:54] belus: sure. [21:54] zaxonspox: how can i check which one i have?

[21:55] does anyone know where git-http-backend can be found in ubuntu? [21:55] belus: well the only reason to unplugg the battery is to not damage it. but newer batteries do not suffer the problem of loosing capacity so there is no point in doing it; is it? [21:55] belus: damage your circut? i dont understand.. [21:55] switch10_, They don't like heat right? sorry if I ask to many questions but I just bought it and I want to take care of it.

[22:00] oh...that sounds perfect switch10_ [22:00] gdiz I seem to remember that VLC may do that [22:01] I've heard that the CPU can be damaged if you run Ubuntu on a Mac, is this true? heard it has something to do with the SMC chip and Linux not being able to handle it but I'm not sure I trust the source [22:01] The Sims 3 has a "Gold" rating on winehq.org [22:01] switch10_: too much hassle to do that... why not using some video editing software? enough to find in the repositories [22:02] gdiz: handbrake.fr [22:02] gsp2009, would you know how to do that with VLC?

[22:04] hi, im trying to migrate my root filesystem to a raid1 array. i created the raid1 array, took one of the drives out and put my original hard disk in, booted from a livecd, created the partition table on the array so that the main filesystem was identical size to my old root partision, dd'd the root filesystem over to the raid1 array [22:04] then used the grub shell to install the grub bootloader on the mbr of the array [22:04] but when i rebooted, it just says Loading... and hangs [22:04] mccool_1985: I don't think it's created by Apple since the only one I have heard talking about it is a guy called Branes on Freenode [22:04] anyway have any ideas what i did wrong? [22:05] shadewind: i don't know. Ubuntu should work on a Mac, but i think you have to figure it out yourself by google? [22:05] negev: the partition on the array has the boot flag enabled? [22:05] yeah it does [22:05] negev: i think that you have to install grub in the mbr of both disks [22:06] mccool_1985: yeah, installing it should be no problem for me [22:06] thank you all [22:06] theres only one hard drive in the raid1 array at the moment === jynn_ is now known as jynn [22:06] is there a way to set up winkey+m for "show desktop" in gnome?

[23:50] hunahpu: the card says USB 598, its from sierra wireless... is it REALLY necessary to be a _complete_ asshole? you *could* ask questions too, i dont know what kind of information you need...
