| tijucas | ok.. | 00:00 |

| zaxonspox | tijucas: you move it, or what? | 00:01 |
| gabrielcz | Anyone can help my whith apache virtualhosts? | 00:01 |
| moreia | I'd settle for help forcing a version from aptitude. I only know how to do it in the gui. | 00:01 |
| gabrielcz | I allways go to /var/www default site | 00:01 |
| moreia | gabrielcz: depends on your question. | 00:01 |
| unknown_ | Hi, is there any easy way to play unprotected WMV files on Ubuntu x64? (on 32bit works fine with w32codecs installed) with | 00:01 |
| tijucas | zaxonspox: ok, my bad:) | 00:01 |
| Outlier | Losha: I'll keep that in mind in case 8.04 objects to the hardware. | 00:01 |
| gabrielcz | moreia: so.. can you? :) | 00:02 |
| Losha | zaxonspox: the 'offical' pastebin for this channel is currently http://ubuntu.pastebin.com | 00:02 |
| === prefrontal_ is now known as prefrontal | ||
| Typos_King | unkown_: I use Xine-UI, it uses its own codecs, it does .wmv files fine in 32bit... not sure on 64 :) | 00:02 |
| zaxonspox | Losha: yes, i gave this link some guy, he paste some code, gave me a link and i was not able to view it - sayed "Register!" | 00:02 |
| Losha | Outlier: how much of a workout do you want to give your hardware. An overnight memtest is good for the memory, and there are various benchmarks people run to exercise cpu etc... | 00:02 |
| moreia | gabrielcz: What's the question? | 00:03 |
| gabrielcz | moreia: I need to use virtualhosts on apache 2.2 | 00:03 |
| gabrielcz | I set all, but allways goes to default site. | 00:03 |
| Losha | zaxonspox: very annoying. It's because that site changed its policy... | 00:03 |
| gabrielcz | I copy to on working server the /site-availabla/ configuration | 00:03 |
| moreia | gabrielcz: can you pastebin your virtualhost definition? | 00:03 |
| gabrielcz | I use a2ensite to enable it | 00:03 |
| Outlier | Losha: mostly I'm testing the network connection; been having headaches with it all week. | 00:03 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | zaxonspox, you can protect you pastebin so only resgistered users can edit/view it | 00:04 |
| gabrielcz | ok moreia | 00:04 |
| Losha | Outlier: wifi or wired? | 00:04 |
| moreia | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ | 00:04 |
| zaxonspox | Losha: so i wont be able to further use ubuntu.paste ? | 00:04 |
| polydeuces | Anyone have any experience installing Intel video drivers onto Ubuntu 9.10? | 00:04 |
| Losha | zaxonspox: you should switch to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com.... | 00:04 |
| fuzzybunny69y | hey everyone I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and sometimes when my wireless isn't able to connect immediatly it will bring up the "authentication required by wireless network" screen and prompt me to enter my wireless password eventhough I have already entered it previously and it is supposed to have it saved. Does anyone know anything I could try to fix this issue? | 00:05 |
| Outlier | Losha: wired. I have dual uplinks, and one of them keeps failing. I put together a dedicated box to document it. | 00:05 |
| moreia | gabrielcz: (and paste the URL here when you're done. But maybe you knew that.) | 00:05 |
| Glowball | polydeuces: Here, they have always worked when selected through System > Administration > Hardware drivers. But I guess you already tried that? | 00:05 |
| zaxonspox | Losha: ok, but it isnt looks like from ubuntu :P | 00:05 |
| polydeuces | Glowball: I haven't. I'm a total noob! I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 yesterday. | 00:06 |
| polydeuces | Thank you! I'll give that a try and let you know how it goes | 00:06 |
| Glowball | polydeuces: Aha, well then, try it you, it's very simple ;) | 00:06 |
| zaxonspox | Glowball: Intel drivers were never ther. It was always a problem with Intel drivers | 00:06 |
| moreia | fuzzybunny69y: if you close the request (in my experience anyway) it eventually notices that it already has the password. | 00:06 |
| gabrielcz | moreia: jejejejej when I wes to copy and paste you... I found the problem :D | 00:06 |
| Glowball | Oh, damn | 00:06 |
| Glowball | He said Intel | 00:06 |
| Losha | Outlier: very nasty. Unless it's very uncommon hardware, most any linux should support it I would think... | 00:06 |
| gabrielcz | moreia: thanks you anyways dude ! :P mistaken on serveralias name :D | 00:06 |
| moreia | gabrielcz: So I helped! | 00:06 |
| Glowball | Sorry, it's 1 AM | 00:06 |
| Glowball | polydeuces: My mistake, I was wrong, those are for NVidia drivers | 00:07 |
| Glowball | It's 1 AM, I think I'm going to bed. | 00:07 |
| polydeuces | Oh, ouch. Yeah, the screen was blank. So what do you think I should do? | 00:07 |
| gabrielcz | moreia: you know... we need to read more :P jejeje so, thanks | 00:07 |
| polydeuces | IS there a way to update intel drivers? | 00:07 |

| zaxonspox | polydeuces: my condolences, problematic issue | 00:08 |
| joshdreamland | Can anyone tell me how to allocate more space for persistent files on my Live USB? | 00:08 |
| polydeuces | oh nuuuu | 00:08 |
| moreia | So, um, about reverting back to pre-shredder Thunderbird? Any advice on specifying the version in aptitude? | 00:08 |
| joshdreamland | Using 9.10, AMD 64 | 00:08 |
| Glowball | polydeuces: Well, ask somebody else in here, they probably know better than me :) | 00:08 |
| daftykins | joshdreamland: you just drag the slider to use more space... inside USB startup disk creator | 00:08 |
| polydeuces | So zaxon, is there no way to update them currently? | 00:08 |
| joshdreamland | daftykins: I already have the thing running on the USB; do I have to erase and start over? | 00:09 |
| zaxonspox | polydeuces: i feel like experienced linux user, but i was tried to MAKE drivers for Intel 82845 with no result | 00:09 |
| polydeuces | Ouch, well then. | 00:09 |
| polydeuces | Thanks for your help! | 00:09 |
| daftykins | joshdreamland: that would probably be the easiest way | 00:09 |
| joshdreamland | I've made a couple changes I'd not much like to lose; isn't there a command line to just add more space to the persistent account? | 00:10 |
| zaxonspox | polydeuces: go and search Intel linux drivers site, mayby you will have more luck, the fact is that it is easier with 945 than with 845 | 00:10 |
| Outlier | Losha: I hope so. | 00:10 |
| polydeuces | Hm, okay I'll give that a try. | 00:10 |
| daftykins | joshdreamland: look into FAT partition resizing then | 00:10 |
| Losha | Outlier: it's been quite a long time since I've seen anyone complain that a wired nic was unsupported. Wireless, on the other hand... | 00:11 |
| joshdreamland | daftykins: It's not a physical partition; it's a filesize limit stored somewhere, as far as I can tell | 00:12 |
| Losha | moreia: it's best done from synaptic, via packages->force version.... | 00:12 |
| joshdreamland | I opened it in GParted; there was only one partition and it was roughly half full | 00:12 |
| switch10_ | joshdreamland: just backup, reinstall on the USB, and then restore.. | 00:12 |
| daftykins | ^ | 00:12 |
| moreia | Losha: indeed. But i'm getting errors there and they're meaningless to me: "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages." | 00:12 |
| zaxonspox | joshdreamland: i think there is no way to resize USB liveCD starage capacity | 00:13 |
| Outlier | Losha: I'm sure it is. It's the motherboard drivers I would be more concerned about, but we'll see. | 00:13 |
| moreia | Losha: also " E: Unable to lock the download directory" | 00:13 |
| Losha | moreia: sorry, out of my league. You can ask here every 15 minutes until someone who knows replies... | 00:14 |
| moreia | Losha: sigh. | 00:14 |
| Losha | moreia: yeah... | 00:14 |
| joshdreamland | switch10_: can you back up without backing up partition size, too? | 00:15 |
| joshdreamland | As far as I can tell, there is a file on this flash drive that behaves as a definite-sized partition | 00:15 |

| eklo | in my opinion it is worth it, since in another system with two gtx 280s, the driver installs and runs fine also on the 2nd card even though screen is only displayed through first card, I don't know whether or not second card is sending a blank screen signal, but should be possible with mixed intel/nvidia | 00:19 |

| maginot | koe, apt-get purge <package> | 00:27 |
| nerdy_kid | maginot well this image isnt actually that important, ill be daring :) ok, dd copied 2721054720 bytes when i terminated it. | 00:27 |

| Typos_King | koe: sudo dpkg -rP PACKAGENAME; | 00:28 |
| maginot | Typos_King, that way you suppose he have a package .deb and not from apt cache | 00:29 |
| maginot | koe, Typos_King, something like dpkg -rP xchat don't work, apt-get purge xchat will remove the xchat installed on the system. | 00:29 |

| tm0 | maginot, i want it to at lesat show up in places. I can make it startup with a shell script from there then at least | 00:40 |

| Hal_ | can someone help im having trouble setting up file sharing between a MS and a ubuntu machine | 00:47 |
| maginot | tm0, well, I can't see any thing about dmesg, which I asked you some times already, but udev shows everything is fine, did you have any gvfs message on your logs ? | 00:48 |
| colorlessprism | Hal_, unless special terms are met they can only share on a FAT32 partition | 00:48 |
| Hal_ | im talking over a network"? | 00:48 |
| tic^ | What channel is remix support in? | 00:49 |
| maginot | Hal_, yes, you are talking on ubuntu channel of freenode network. | 00:49 |
| alejandro | can someone help me get HDMI to tv support for 9.10? | 00:49 |
| colorlessprism | Hal_, me too...ubuntu cannot read ntfs without the ntfs package and windows cant read ext w/o package | 00:49 |
| tm0 | maginot i added it under the udev. I just didn't copy the command. It was too large to post it all. Also none. | 00:50 |
| Pici | colorlessprism: I think Hal_ means that hes trying to share the drive across a network, not on the same computer. Correct me if I'm wrong. | 00:50 |
| tm0 | maginot should i just accept its a limitation at the moment? | 00:50 |
| kermit | kermit-: -_- | 00:50 |
| maginot | tm0, well, you really should take a look at your logs on /var/logs | 00:50 |
| Hal_ | colorlessprism so i have to go from a fat on the MS machine to a fat on the ubuntu machine? | 00:50 |
| terroh8er | hello, i have ubuntu 9.10 64 bit and 32 bit on CDs and i didn't label them. im also out of CDs. is there a way to tell which is which? | 00:51 |
| signornessuno | i can't mount a disk, here the error sudo mount /dev/sdc /media/cdrom0 | 00:51 |
| signornessuno | mount: /dev/sdc: can't read superblock | 00:51 |
| Typos_King | terroh8er: boot from either, and check in it :) | 00:51 |
| colorlessprism | pici, i think unless windows is on FAT32 linux cannot reach with the ntfs package, and windows cannot reach linux without an ext package, making a share folder on fat32 makes the process easier | 00:51 |
| Pici | Hal_: No. samba does not care about the filesystem. | 00:51 |
| maginot | tm0, if you are having a problem with devices not being shown on Computer so it is probably a gvfs or polkit problem, I could tell you that is a gconf problem, but that is more probable when you change something manually | 00:51 |
| Hal_ | Pici yes 2 seperate machines over a network | 00:51 |
| Pici | colorlessprism: samba is not filesystem dependent. | 00:52 |
| Pici | Hal_: Are you trying to share from the Ubuntu computer, or from the Windows computer? | 00:52 |
| Hal_ | Pici is their a guide to setting them up to talk to each other? | 00:52 |
| tm0 | maginot thanks for your help very much. I'll look into those. Was just hoping to have some exam music. Thank you anyways | 00:52 |

| SpaceCowboy40404 | Is there a firewall in ubuntu? | 01:08 |
| mameth | spacecowboy: for what? | 01:08 |
| Pici | !firewall | SpaceCowboy40404 | 01:08 |
| ubottu | SpaceCowboy40404: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 01:08 |
| Pici | SpaceCowboy40404: But there are no ports listening for things by default and thus no firewall rules by default. | 01:09 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | so it would not be blocking a specific port b y default? | 01:09 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | specifically port 3784? | 01:09 |
| Typos_King | SpaceCowboy40404: you can set rules for it, the firewall is already in the kernel loaded, and there are some Frontends for firewall rule settings, the one I know offhand will be kmyfirewall | 01:09 |
| signornessuno | Typos_King: why lspci, it is connect via usb | 01:10 |

| penthief | avahi-discover doesn't seem to work. What do I need to do? | 01:11 |

| jrib | !sudo | SpaceCowboy40404 | 01:13 |
| ubottu | SpaceCowboy40404: sudo is a command to run command-line ( see !cli ) programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 01:13 |

| GrizzLyCRO | SpaceCowboy40404: are you behind a router? | 01:18 |
| Wingless | I want to run Adobe Reader with root privileges, so I want to either figure out how to gksudo it from the terminal (which requires its name or alias or whatever, which I don't know), or figure out how to do the equivalent of gksudo from within the Gnome GUI. | 01:18 |
| greezmunkey | SpaceCowboy40404: also, do you have a static ip? | 01:18 |
| penthief | Wingless: I use evince, but if it is on your path: adob<TAB><TAB><RETURN>, hopefully. | 01:18 |
| Wingless | Does anybody know how to do this? It must be simple. | 01:18 |
| Typos_King | signornessuno: .... no... for now... but any fsck.. errors? you got those from 'lsusb'? | 01:18 |

| Wingless | nothing comes up | 01:19 |
| craigbass1976 | Wingless, how do you start it now? | 01:19 |
| GrizzLyCRO | also, can they ping you | 01:19 |
| Wingless | I start it by going to Applications>Office>Adobe Reader 9 | 01:19 |
| Typos_King | Wingless: adobe reader? are you real? that app is nothing but a resource hog, why not just get... something else like... kpdf or so | 01:19 |
| Wingless | But that starts it without root privileges | 01:19 |
| Wingless | because I need to view Japanese documents | 01:20 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | grizzlycro: I have no idea about that.... i applied these same server settings on my vista os (albeit a different ip) and it works fine | 01:20 |
| Wingless | If you can give me an easy to install viewer that handles a variety of Japanese documents and fonts | 01:20 |
| Wingless | then I'll be happy to use that instead | 01:20 |
| GrizzLyCRO | Wingless: right click on icon, add it to desktop | 01:20 |

| SpaceCowboy40404 | greezmunkey: i am not on a statiuc ip, however i do change my ip in the .ini file everytime i log in to the server | 01:21 |
| Wingless | I'll give it a shot | 01:21 |
| Typos_King | Wingless: I don't think that's viewer-dependent, so much as format dependent, and PDFs do that, sooo.... I use okular | 01:21 |
| alejandro | Does ubuntu 9.10 support HDMI? | 01:21 |
| GrizzLyCRO | SpaceCowboy40404: first you need to make sure that they can ping you | 01:21 |
| greezmunkey | SpaceCowboy40404: here's a quick way to verify your public ip: wget -q -O- http://whatismyip.org/ | 01:21 |
| GrizzLyCRO | thats first step | 01:21 |
| Wingless | Typos_King: all I know is that I'm fairly new to Ubuntu, so I don't know much, and Adobe Acrobat views Japanese documents, but it requires special fonts. Moreover, Acrobat is easy to install, and I know it works. | 01:21 |

| GrizzLyCRO | see command label? | 01:22 |
| jrib | Kentrel: it means the files on the drive will be mounted with group ownership Kentrel | 01:22 |
| alejandro | randomusr, so i can't hook my ubuntu to tv... :\ ok | 01:23 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | greezmunkey: checked it to make sure and that is the ip im using to connect to it | 01:23 |
| Wingless | Typos_King: does it have a good selection of japanese fonts? | 01:23 |
| randomusr | alejandro, you can, just not with hdmi | 01:23 |
| Typos_King | Wingless: I don't think that's viewer-dependent, so much as format dependent, and PDFs do that, sooo.... I use okular | 01:23 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | grizzlycro: how do i do that? | 01:23 |
| Wingless | ah | 01:23 |
| Kentrel | jrib,I'm trying to set up a drive that will be automatically mounted in certain user acconts, but disabled in other accoutns | 01:23 |
| Pici | alejandro: You can, it depends on your hardware. My ati card worked with hdmi out of the box. | 01:23 |
| Wingless | i see it | 01:23 |
| Wingless | acroread | 01:23 |
| greezmunkey | SpaceCowboy40404: what are you using for a router? | 01:23 |
| GrizzLyCRO | SpaceCowboy40404: whats your IP? | 01:23 |
| jrib | Kentrel: fstab is not the way. But what's wrong with just having it always mounted but only give certain people permission? | 01:23 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i will try to ping you | 01:23 |
| alejandro | Pici, my laptop supports HDMI | 01:23 |
| GrizzLyCRO | sned me in private | 01:23 |
| randomusr | alejandro, you need something like TV out, svga, or other | 01:24 |
| Kentrel | jrib, okay, how do I do that? | 01:24 |
| Pici | alejandro: What video card do you have in it? | 01:24 |
| Wingless | So then I suppose I can just type "gksudo acroread", right? It's a windowed program, so I assume it's using GNOME, and when you want to sudo programs that use GNOME for GUI, you have to use gksudo instead of just sudo, right? | 01:24 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | greezmunkey: linksys WRT54G | 01:24 |
| jrib | Kentrel: as you are doing now, just put the users in some group and only give that group permissions to the drive | 01:24 |
| jrib | !ntfs > Kentrel | 01:24 |
| ubottu | Kentrel, please see my private message | 01:24 |
| jrib | !permissions > Kentrel | 01:24 |
| craigbass1976 | Wingless, just fire up a terminal and type sudo acroread | 01:24 |
| greezmunkey | SpaceCowboy40404: you have the port forwarded I assume? | 01:25 |
| Wingless | I thought you had to be careful to use gksudo sometimes and sudo other times. What's the difference, then? | 01:25 |
| alejandro | well i have stock its an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD with 1695MB of memory supports directX 10 | 01:25 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | greezmunkey: yes 3784 to this pc's specific address .....102 | 01:25 |
| Kentrel | jrib, like this? "/dev/sda1 /media/WinXP ntfs nls=iso8859-1,group=Kentrel,umask=000 0 0" | 01:25 |
| Wingless | lolwut | 01:25 |
| jrib | Kentrel: no, that would give all files 777 permissions so anyone could do anything | 01:25 |
| Wingless | "Adobe Reader does not need to be run as a privileged user. Please remove 'sudo' from the beginning of the command.' | 01:26 |
| Pici | alejandro: I've never worked with intel drivers on linux, I'm unsure if they support hdmi out. | 01:26 |
| Kentrel | jrib, I want everyone who's part of group "Kentrel" to be able to do anything | 01:26 |
| greezmunkey | SpaceCowboy40404: I guess if nothing else works, restart your router and try again, sometimes those linksys boxes can act a bit wierd. | 01:26 |
| alejandro | k | 01:26 |
| jrib | Kentrel: so make sure "others" get 0 permissions | 01:26 |
| craigbass1976 | Wingless, how did you run it? | 01:26 |
| Pici | alejandro: Sorry :/ You may want to try doing a search in the ubuntu forums | 01:26 |
| xomp | how to remove a program and purge all of it's configuration files along with it? | 01:26 |
| Wingless | I followed GrizzLyCRO's instructions | 01:27 |
| Kentrel | jrib, doesn't that just imply that only people of group conor can mount that drive? | 01:27 |
| Kentrel | jrib, group Kentrel I mean | 01:27 |
| craigbass1976 | Wingless, hang on, I'm installing acrobat. | 01:27 |
| jrib | Kentrel: no, the mounting happens at boot time | 01:27 |
| signornessuno | Typos_King: here there is fsck http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/xXLcu54F | 01:27 |
| Pici | xomp: sudo apt-get remove --purge packagename this will not remove user configurations though, i.e, those stored in a user's home. | 01:27 |
| craigbass1976 | Wingless, This is like me going to wal-mart though, or using windows. I feel dirty. | 01:27 |
| greezmunkey | SpaceCowboy40404: do you have another computer that you can try to connect with? | 01:27 |
| Kentrel | jrib, well how come now I have to click on the drive for it to mount? It doesn't mount automatically | 01:28 |
| xomp | Pici, ah thanks | 01:28 |
| Wingless | craigbass1976: it's okay. I just wanted to try running it as root to see if that gave the program permission to do whatever was necessary to automatically download/install the Japanese fonts it needs for this one document | 01:28 |
| === arash_ is now known as |PiP| | ||
| greezmunkey | SpaceCowboy40404: like, over the LAN... | 01:28 |
| jrib | Kentrel: fstab only gets read when you boot | 01:28 |
| craigbass1976 | Wingless, nope, I take it back. This install is huge. I'm on slow broadband. | 01:28 |
| jhambo | Hi folks, fresh install of 9.10 here. My wireless card is "Intel Corporation WiFi Link 100 Series" which seems to use the iwlagn module. I can connect to WPA personal wireless at home but I'm unable to connect to the WPA enterprise network at school. Is there anything I can do to get WPA-enterprise working??? | 01:28 |
| Wingless | I *could* download them myself from Adobe, but they don't have a font package explicitly meant for Reader version 9, which is what I have -- even though they have font packages for older versions. | 01:28 |
| Kentrel | jrib, so whats going on with Ubuntu then? How come I can't access files in /media/WinXP until I click that drive in gnome | 01:29 |
| Wingless | So I thought maybe if I got the program to do it itself, I wouldn't have to uninstall version 9 and install an older version. | 01:29 |
| Kentrel | And even then I have to enter a password | 01:29 |
| jrib | Kentrel: you realize you are now asking a different question? | 01:29 |
| Kentrel | jrib, yeah... | 01:29 |
| jrib | Kentrel: what do you actually want to accomplish? | 01:29 |
| signornessuno | Typos_King: help! | 01:29 |
| Kentrel | jrib, well I want my /media/WinXP drive to be mounted automatically when I log into my main Kentrel account. But people in other accounts, i.e. guests using my computer don't get to mount that drive | 01:30 |
| Kentrel | jrib, currently I have to click on it, and enter the password again, after logging in | 01:30 |
| jrib | Kentrel: ok, so use fstab to have your drive always mounted but give permission to read/write/execute files on that drive only to that user | 01:30 |
| Kentrel | ok | 01:31 |
| jrib | Kentrel: if you read the permissions link, this should make more sense. Also, you can think of the "umask" as subtracting from 777. So for example a umask=007 would give the files permission 770 | 01:31 |
| coz_ | guys out of curiosity and need at this point.... somehow I disabled previe pane when opening an image but it shows up when saving it in nauitlus | 01:32 |
| coz_ | or rather in the "open" dialog | 01:32 |
| coz_ | nevermind duh I see the "Enable preview" yoikes | 01:32 |
| Kentrel | jrib, okay - so I can set the permissions of a whole drive? | 01:32 |
| jrib | Kentrel: that's what you are doing with the fstab options. You are setting permissions for every file on that partition | 01:33 |
| Kentrel | jrib, okay, so I should set the umask= to...??" | 01:33 |
| jrib | Kentrel: you could just set permissions on the root directory of the partition, but you can't do that with ntfs. Read the link ubottu gave you to understand what octal permissions mean. Then see if my example before does what you want or not | 01:34 |
| jan247 | hi guys. trying to set-up virtualhosts in apache. If I wanted to have www.something.com and redirect something.com to it, and I already have a virtualhost for www.something.com, how do I create a redirect from something.com to www.something.com. would i need another virtualhost just to host this redirect? | 01:34 |
| Kentrel | jrib, so I'd set the permissions to my /media/WinXP folder itself? | 01:35 |
| jrib | Kentrel: no. | 01:35 |
| Typos_King | signornessuno: you know, I got nothing on that paste :| | 01:35 |
| * Typos_King retries the paste | 01:36 | |
| claybustr | okay - it appears I'm not the only person to try overriding DisallowTCP in their gdm.conf file and be flat out ignored | 01:36 |
| fleebailey33 | Chris___: /join ##mac | 01:36 |
| jrib | Kentrel: read the permission link ubottu gave you and figure out what umask you want set | 01:36 |
| Typos_King | lol | 01:36 |
| Kentrel | jrib, okay | 01:36 |
| SeaPhor | jrib, after following this, i am concerned and wondering myself... why have things changed so dramatically from last LTS to this? like why is mounting an NFS share such an ordeal? why is setting up a VNC account such an issue? why is network shares changed so much? and many other "why do i have to CHANGE all the notes I kept on how to do stuff" for EVERY release? | 01:36 |
| Chris___ | fleebailey33: why would I do that? I hate macs | 01:36 |
| Typos_King | signornessuno: that's just the 'fsck' dump :|, not exactly the lsusb heheh, for the mp3 device | 01:37 |
| jrib | jan247: try #httpd | 01:37 |
| Typos_King | signornessuno: but it looks like you firstly need to fix your system, before trying to access your mp3 player ehhe | 01:37 |
| jan247 | jrib: sorry, tnx | 01:37 |
| signornessuno | Typos_King: and about the errors on fsck, is there a way to repair? | 01:37 |
| claybustr | has tcp listen actually been removed from X on ubuntu? (I read that Suse removed it from the package source - talk about heavy handed) | 01:38 |
| jrib | SeaPhor: I don't know, everything seems to work the same for me (I use samba though, not nfs) | 01:38 |
| Wingless | Thank you for the help, by the way. | 01:38 |
| holden | hi | 01:38 |
| holden | hi neal | 01:39 |
| Kentrel | jrib, so from reading I'm thinking "nouser,uid=0,gid=0,umask=077" will give me what I want, i.e. only the owner can mount it, right? | 01:39 |
| Typos_King | signornessuno: ... wait.... what's...... you meant to say, you ran an 'fsck' on the mp3 player? which is fat32 and fsck won't work with | 01:39 |
| SeaPhor | so... ubuntu is becoming more like windows? and is catering to MS? | 01:39 |
| Kajros | I am currently on a laptop and I am trying to install Ubunto to an external hard drive and seem to be having some trouble with it. Either it refuses to install at all or stops at %% and shuts off the installer. | 01:40 |
| jrib | Kentrel: not really, uid=0 and gid=0 means all the files are going to be owned by root and have group root. Your umask is right though, that will only give the owner permissions to read/write/execute. Unfortunately, the owner is root, not Kentrel | 01:40 |
| GrizzLyCRO | can i somehow send windows from one monitor to another, using lucid, nvidia, separate x screen option | 01:40 |
| SeaPhor | Kentrel, that would mean that ONLY the user can, and not even members of the user's group could | 01:41 |
| SeaPhor | Kentrel, and ditto jrib | 01:41 |
| GrizzLyCRO | when xinerama is enabled, machine acts weird, i cant click on stuff, have to press ctrl+alt+del and then alt F4 to close ALL open windows and then right click on taskbar to get normal mouse and keyboard focus | 01:42 |
| Kentrel | jrib and seaphor. It appears that I have this in my /etc/group: "adm:x:4:kentrel". I've found a post that advises using gid=4 for mounting ntfs drives | 01:42 |
| Typos_King | signornessuno: fsck won't work on 'fat32' or 'ntfs' filesystem for checking them..... thus I'd think is the errors, I assume is what you did, you ran a 'fsck' on the mp3 player.... whic is fat32... thus the errors, doens't mean is bad though heehe | 01:43 |
| Kentrel | jrif, Will this allow my kentrel group.. or user access to that drive? | 01:43 |
| jrib | Kentrel: ignore the post... continue with previous suggestion... | 01:43 |
| signornessuno | Typos_King: you're true | 01:43 |
| SeaPhor | Kentrel, not with mask 077 | 01:43 |
| vlt | Hello. I created some iptables rules I want to be loaded on every boot. What is the ubuntu way to save these rules? | 01:43 |
| Kentrel | nouser,uid=0,gid=4,umask=007 | 01:44 |
| Kentrel | ? | 01:44 |
| SeaPhor | Kentrel, the "xxx" = x=user x=user's main group x=everyone else | 01:44 |
| jrib | Kentrel: you seem to just be ignoring what I say :/ | 01:45 |
| Typos_King | Kentrel: http://maketecheasier.com/auto-mount-your-ntfs-partition-in-ubuntu/2009/04/14 <--- in case it helps | 01:45 |
| SeaPhor | so Kentrel 077 means 7=for user 0=for users group and 0=for all others | 01:45 |
| Kentrel | But 007 would mean 7 for user, 7 for group, and everybody else is kept out? | 01:46 |
| jrib | Kentrel: yes | 01:46 |
| SeaPhor | and Kentrel ... jrib is correct, plz listen to him | 01:46 |

| gonzaloaf | Typos_King, nop | 01:55 |
| gonzaloaf | Typos_King, I'm trying to adjust the brightness but it isn't work | 01:55 |
| Typos_King | gonzaloaf: sooooo, what's ubuntu meant to do ? I don't think the 'fn' key combos are OS-dependent | 01:55 |
| gonzaloaf | Typos_King, Maybe I need to install some additional pkg | 01:56 |
| Typos_King | gonzaloaf: don't think so | 01:56 |
| gonzaloaf | Typos_King, I just realized that it is working! But the combination to adjust the brightness dont, both the up and down bright | 01:58 |
| Typos_King | gonzaloaf: the 'fn' key combos are OS-independent afaik, their functions are mapped in the chipset bios | 01:58 |
| gonzaloaf | Typos_King, But the combination to lock the screen works fine, | 01:58 |
| stankwagon | hello | 01:58 |
| Typos_King | gonzaloaf: can't say... maybe something in the keyboard keys :) | 01:58 |
| stankwagon | first time here on an IRC chat | 01:59 |
| gonzaloaf | Typos_King, well in windows it works well | 01:59 |
| bushbaby | gonzaloaf: the brightness setting keys may rely on windows based functions whereas screenlock is handled in BIOS? | 01:59 |

| bushbaby | Kegg Grub boots the Ubuntu system (imagine it as an intermediary between BIOS and OS) although you don't need it once OS has booted i recommend you keep it on the hard drive (not sure if it's possible to do otherwise?) as it's only small anyway | 02:21 |
| Izinucs | mikebl: what's your question.. there are many here who may be able to help | 02:21 |
| Mysti_Bleue | ok will do coz_ , he's checking into it now , Thanks ..we'll be back ! | 02:21 |
| coz_ | ok | 02:21 |
| Kegg | bushbaby: the goal is to have it removeable for security purposes. thanks! | 02:21 |
| mikebl | i have to design an IXP... im looking for guidance on how to do it, or a good book or something | 02:22 |
| Mysti_Bleue | coz_ do you know of a good irc client for Debian | 02:22 |
| Mysti_Bleue | ? | 02:22 |
| Kegg | irssi | 02:22 |

| SpaceCowboy40404 | how do i launch wine? | 02:23 |
| powertool08 | SpaceCowboy40404: I use winefile, it opens a file manager, then I browse to my file. | 02:24 |
| timClicks | SpaceCowboy40404: how did you install it? | 02:24 |
| Mysti_Bleue | coz_ we tried to get on this server by going thru a java applet ...haha sent us to an empty room | 02:24 |
| Izinucs | mikebl: ah.. ok.. well.. there's http://www.scribd.com/ where you can find loads of technical books that can be read online and some even downloaded for free. The other option is #networking. | 02:24 |
| coz_ | Mysti_Bleue, as far as the irc clients... if you want to get into it deeply then go irssi if you want something that is fairly easy to deal with go with xchat. but it is really a personal choice | 02:24 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | through synaptic | 02:24 |
| coz_ | Mysti_Bleue, ah I see | 02:25 |
| Mysti_Bleue | or we THOUGHT we were on this server ...lol | 02:25 |
| bushbaby | Kegg: apparently so! http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/grub_intro this should give instructions on how to do so | 02:25 |
| coz_ | Mysti_Bleue, ok then you might want xchat its not too difficult to set up if you need help with it there is the #xchat channel or just let me know | 02:25 |
| Mysti_Bleue | so I changed to my trusty windows 7 * I know thats a dirty word in here * and opened my mIRC program and got here | 02:25 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | i right click on the program im wanting to start and then select "open with another application" and then select "wine Windos Program loader" and then nothing happens | 02:26 |
| coz_ | Mysti_Bleue, not reallly a dirty word...you use what you need to get the job done :) | 02:26 |

| watertonian | Other than unarc it. | 02:27 |

| Mysti_Bleue | ok coz_ | 02:28 |
| watertonian | I downloaded a webcam server, but its a .tar.gz, and I'm not entirely sure where to put the files after unarcing it. | 02:28 |
| bushbaby | watertonian: if you're trying to extract a .tar.bz2 file then use bunzip2 and tar xf from the command line | 02:28 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | h00k: it says it is supported | 02:29 |
| keyhive | Where can I get Lucid help? | 02:29 |
| coz_ | watertonian, after extracting it look inside for a README file or an INSTALL file it should direct you | 02:29 |
| watertonian | Oh, it unarcs fine with the gui program. just not exactly sure what I'm looking at. (even though 90% of amiga stuff is a linux port anyway lol) | 02:29 |

| Mysti_Bleue | no it was in the software center | 02:30 |
| jhambo | Just installed Ubuntu 9.10. I can't connect to WPA-Enterprise networks. I was able to connect under Debian Lenny so I know that the card works and the drivers exist. How can I go about fixing this problem?? | 02:30 |

| ubottu | jhambo, please see my private message | 02:30 |
| coz_ | Mysti_Bleue, well it is starting up here | 02:30 |
| coz_ | Mysti_Bleue, if streamtuner opens ... click the Xiph tab it should then update the radion stations | 02:31 |
| Mysti_Bleue | coz_ he's trying to install it with the app get whatever | 02:32 |
| Mysti_Bleue | lol | 02:32 |

| ubottu | Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 02:32 |

| aperson | !peerguardian | 02:35 |
| Mysti_Bleue | I'm off too night | 02:35 |
| aperson | _pg_, there is, but a hosts file would likely be a better option | 02:35 |
| aperson | _pg_, also, if you're just concerned with torrenting, some clients have blocklist support | 02:36 |
| _pg_ | aperson: I would prefer a GUI and list support, not have to do it all manually, copy and paste etc. that way, the links autoupdate! | 02:36 |
| bushbaby | aperson: then i'd suggest searching for updates to your keyboard drivers or prehaps a BIOS flash? | 02:37 |
| _pg_ | aperson: other than transmission, what clietns support blocklists? | 02:37 |
| urthmover | I have a question and I'm not quite sure where to begin....I am displaying native 1024x768 using a projector..(because that is the crispest resolution. I project it on a wall screen that is 1376x768. When I run XBMC I am able to set the resolution for 720P within XBMC and it fits fine. It does not actually change the resolution of the graphics adaptor away from 1024x768....it just resizes the application to fit nicely on the screen | 02:37 |
| aperson | _pg_, deluge does | 02:37 |
| aperson | _pg_, there are programs that will update your hosts file for you, FWIW | 02:38 |
| droid7 | _pg_, deluge, vuze, qbitorrent, pretty much all these days | 02:38 |
| _pg_ | droid7: aperson what do you use personally / would recommend | 02:38 |
| aperson | bushbaby, I just find it odd, it *just* started doing this | 02:38 |
| droid7 | _pg_, transmission, deluge, qbitorrent, vuze (in that order) | 02:38 |
| aperson | _pg_, I like deluge | 02:39 |
| _pg_ | droid7: vuze is linux native? | 02:39 |
| droid7 | _pg_, yes. It's java | 02:39 |

| jhambo | h00k: yah I tried the "Easy Steps to get WPA to Work on Kubuntu" on that page and it doesn't work. | 02:39 |

| komies | I have a question; I googled and didn't find anything exactly the same, and can't replicate it, but it's happened twice this week already. I run eeebuntu and I have random touchpad failures. I know the system is still running because the task monitor on my upper taskbar doesn't stop moving, nor does the cursor stop blinking; I'm just unable to use my touchpad at all, or ctrl alt backspace, and have to manually power down. | 02:40 |
| aperson | komies, you might have to take that up with eeebuntu's support | 02:41 |
| komies | alright, will do :) thanks | 02:41 |
| droid7 | komies, test with a mouse. Could be you accidentally disable your touchpad without knowing. Also, try shortcut keys. | 02:42 |
| randomusr | is there a webcam software that will detect motion and e-mail it to me? | 02:42 |
| xomp | why can't I remove a package that I used "aptitude install packagename" to get in the first place? | 02:42 |
| aperson | yes, xev isn't reporting f9 correctly | 02:42 |
| aperson | xomp, you need to be more specific | 02:42 |
| bushbaby | aperson: strange. can you think of anything that may have affected input? settings changed? just eliminating possibilities | 02:42 |
| komies | droid7: thanks, let me check the keyboard shortcuts for that. that might be it. | 02:43 |
| _pg_ | how long till the derivatives get to 10.4? | 02:43 |
| xomp | aperson, heh, well I installed nginx via 'sudo aptitude get nginx' and now that I'm trying to remove it with 'apt-get remove nginx' or even 'aptitude remove nginx' it's returning all sorts of errors | 02:43 |
| droid7 | komies, also, if you want to avoid hard shutdowns and know your system isn't frozen, you can do: alt+f2, xterm, sudo shutdown -h now | 02:43 |
| aperson | xomp, if you used get, you didn't install it | 02:43 |
| aperson | xomp, aptitude get just downloads the package | 02:44 |

| Wingless | Hello again. I have another question. I've installed Adobe Reader 9 by downloading the file AdbeRdr9.3.2-1_i386linux_enu.deb from Adobe and installing it using the GDebi Package Installer. Now I want to uninstall it. It seems to me that GDebi doesn't uninstall stuff, so how do I go about uninstalling this .deb package? | 02:44 |
| aperson | xomp, a pastebin of your output would be great | 02:44 |
| droid7 | Wicked, gnome? | 02:44 |
| droid7 | oops | 02:44 |
| droid7 | Wingless, gnome? | 02:45 |
| Wingless | yes | 02:45 |
| aperson | Wingless, synaptic, aptitude, or apt-get can do it | 02:45 |
| Wingless | I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 using GNOME | 02:45 |
| droid7 | System -> Administrator -> Synatpic | 02:45 |
| droid7 | type in adobe | 02:45 |
| Wingless | I've tried synaptic and aptitude | 02:45 |
| Wingless | searching for adobe and acrobat or acroreader or anything like that doesn't return any results that seem relevant. | 02:45 |
| droid7 | try pdf | 02:45 |

| Wingless | There are lots of results, but none of them seem to be Adobe Reader | 02:46 |
| randomusr | exit | 02:46 |
| droid7 | try doing sudo apt-get remove ado<tab tab> | 02:47 |
| droid7 | see if autocomplete finds it | 02:47 |
| Wingless | that spewed out "adobereader-enu" which I believe is the package I installed | 02:47 |
| droid7 | nice | 02:47 |
| Wingless | But it doesn't show up in Synaptic | 02:47 |
| Wingless | or Add/Remove | 02:47 |
| aperson | xomp, try stopping nginx manually first | 02:47 |
| watertonian | ok. according to the site, the guy forgot to put libjpgsomething-or-other in the dependancies... | 02:48 |
| droid7 | add/remove doesn't list everything | 02:48 |
| Wingless | I see | 02:48 |
| xomp | aperson, I have /etc/init.d/nginx stop | 02:48 |
| droid7 | but synaptic should. Maybe the search is off or the repo needs a refresh | 02:48 |
| Wingless | That seems weird | 02:48 |
| inglor_ | hey, does anyone know the logic behind 1 being false and 0 true in bash? | 02:48 |
| Wingless | When I search for "adobereader-enu" in Synaptic Package Manager, making sure that I'm viewing "All" packages, I get nothing | 02:48 |
| Wingless | but in any case | 02:48 |
| droid7 | inglor_, head over to #bash | 02:48 |
| inglor_ | right | 02:49 |
| Wingless | So sudo apt-get remove adobereader-enu should work then? | 02:49 |
| droid7 | yeah | 02:49 |
| Wingless | I'll give it a whirl | 02:49 |
| droid7 | sudo apt-get purge <name> if you want the config files out too | 02:49 |

| mango | the problem is simpler than it might seem | 03:09 |
| mango | my ethernet port is broken | 03:09 |
| Daemonic | mango: google ndiswrapper | 03:09 |
| droid7 | eth1 wouldn't be wireless?? | 03:09 |
| mango | hardware manager finds the proprietery broadcom driver | 03:09 |
| Daemonic | droid7: I have a belkin wifi card that shows up as eth | 03:09 |
| mango | but since I don't have ethernet I cannot install it | 03:09 |
| Daemonic | mango: google ndiswrapper | 03:09 |
| droid7 | that's really odd | 03:09 |
| droid7 | but obviously possible ;p | 03:10 |
| Daemonic | I'd like to know why my overclocked quad core runs like shit | 03:10 |
| acovrig | how do I setup bluetooth via the cmd-line? | 03:10 |
| aperson | bushbaby, I considered trying an older kernel | 03:10 |
| Daemonic | must be this shitty ati video card. | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | !language > Daemonic | 03:10 |
| ubottu | Daemonic, please see my private message | 03:10 |
| droid7 | Daemonic, "runs like shit" needs a desc :P | 03:10 |
| pdbogen | Hi, guys. I just upgraded to 10.04; I was running 9.10. | 03:10 |
| pdbogen | Er. | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | please keep the language clean people | 03:10 |
| aperson | does anyone have a reason as to why my keyboard's f9 key stopped working as f9? xev gives me: http://pastebin.com/1X6MH79y | 03:10 |
| Daemonic | droid7: laggy.. video wise.. probably not the cpu but the video card. ATI drivers are crap. | 03:11 |
| bushbaby | aperson: maybe that's your best bet? tried booting into a different one (should you have more than one set up in GRUB)? If so what happens? | 03:11 |
| pdbogen | Anyway: Under both, I have the problem of the keyboard tending to lose keystrokes, as though the kernel is missing interrupts from the keyboard. Sometimes it loses the 'key release' interrupt, instead, meaning the key gets stuck. Any advice? | 03:11 |
| gregcor | mango: try to find the package on http://packages.ubuntu.com/ . Save the deb to a thumbdrive or something. You might need the dependencies too | 03:11 |
| droid7 | Daemonic, ah ati. are you on on < 10.04? | 03:11 |
| Daemonic | yeah | 03:11 |
| aperson | pdbogen, #ubuntu+1 | 03:12 |
| droid7 | i think ati came out with some improvements with the latetest drivers | 03:12 |
| droid7 | latest * | 03:12 |
| pdbogen | aperson: The problem applies to Ubuntu 9.10, as well. | 03:12 |
| aperson | pdbogen, usb keyboard? | 03:12 |
| pdbogen | aperson: Laptop; connected, presumably via PS/2, to an i8042. | 03:13 |
| tomato | for applications that require compiling (config, make, install, etc.), where is a good place to keep the source files? i realize that i need them when i want to do a "make uninstall" | 03:13 |
| juanca | hi, I've updated my ubuntu 9.10 in one computer... how can I take those downloaded update files to a pc without internet connection, please? | 03:13 |
| Peaches` | Maybe your keyboard key is crapping out? Just an idea... | 03:13 |
| pdbogen | tomato: /usr/src would be the usual. | 03:13 |
| Daemonic | hmm.. downgrade to onboard nvidia and have slow but working graphics or stay with this ati and enjoy random problems. | 03:13 |
| Daemonic | damnit. | 03:13 |
| tomato | thanks pdbogen! | 03:13 |
| droid7 | the new nouveau seems promising | 03:14 |
| pdbogen | Peaches`: I don't believe that to be the case. In particular, because it seems more frequent when the system is under high load, and because it doesn't happen when running from a Debian install on a USB stick. | 03:14 |
| droid7 | maybe disable vsync or use indirect rendering | 03:14 |
| === ryaxnb_ is now known as ryaxnbuntu | ||
| Peaches` | pdbogen: Hmm.. | 03:15 |
| gregcor | juanica: /var/cache/apt/archives has the package cache for apt. You could copy those over. | 03:15 |
| DJCharlie | Question folks. My desktop (XP) is on a local lan with 192.168.0.x. My server is on that lan as well as another lan with 192.168.254.x. There's another XP system on the 192.168.254.x lan as well. Any way I can configure the server to bridge a VNC connection between the two XP systems? | 03:15 |
| pdbogen | I suppose it could be abuggy BIOS, but that's particularly annoying, because I'd have to install Windows to run the BIOS update. :/ | 03:15 |
| mango | do you guys know where the packages we install using synaptic of software manager are stored? | 03:15 |
| gregcor | mango: see what I just posted to juanca above | 03:16 |
| droid7 | /usr/bin | 03:16 |
| pdbogen | DJCharlie: iptables bidirectional NAT | 03:16 |
| pdbogen | mango: /var/cache/apt/archives gets the .DEB. | 03:16 |
| juanca_ | gregcor: Ok, but how do I install them in the other computer? | 03:16 |
| IdleOne | mango: the packages install mostly to /usr/bin among other places and the .deb are in /var/cache/apt/archives | 03:16 |
| gregcor | You'd have to use dpkg to install them (or double click them in the file manager). I'm not sure if there's an easier way. Are you looking to install specific software, updates...? | 03:17 |
| DJCharlie | pdbogen: Can you point me to an example please? | 03:17 |
| macbird | ping | 03:18 |
| IdleOne | macbird: pong | 03:18 |
| juanca_ | gregcor: both | 03:18 |
| bigtom21485 | alright, so frostwire simply uninstalled itself without a trace for no reason at all | 03:18 |
| bigtom21485 | any comments? | 03:18 |
| juanca_ | gregcor: software and updates | 03:19 |
| pdbogen | juanca_: Copy to flash drive, mount flash drive, 'sudo dpkg -i filename.deb' | 03:19 |
| droid7 | did you remove any other packages taht may have that as a dependency? | 03:19 |
| droid7 | or vise versa | 03:19 |
| gregcor | juanca: Is ubuntu already on the offline computer, or there's absolutely no install right now? | 03:19 |
| bigtom21485 | droid7: i used the computer janitor, that may have done it. | 03:19 |
| tle | am I allowed to ask about libdvdread4 in here? I'm trying to set it up but the install-css.sh script is timing out | 03:19 |
| === neutrino is now known as tar- | ||
| droid7 | bigtom21485, yeah that's possible. I recommend avoiding the janitor and using a different tool such as "ubuntutweak" | 03:19 |
| === vinicius is now known as Guest83507 | ||
| pdbogen | DJCharlie: Not offhand; try google. Alternatively, you could probably just do normal routing and not worry about NAT, though you should probably lock it down with some iptables rules. | 03:20 |
| === Guest83507 is now known as vinicius_ | ||
| bigtom21485 | droid7: do i ever have to fragment a harddrive that uses ext4 or ext5? | 03:20 |

| pdbogen | DJCharlie: You said the systems are Desktop <-- 192.168.0/24 --> Server <-- 192.168.254.0/24 --> Other Box, right? | 03:23 |
| microlith | crankharder: it's standard USB | 03:23 |
| pdbogen | DJCharlie: So where's the firewall? | 03:23 |
| tle | pdbogen, well I installed it but I'm still having issues. Totem starts to read the disc and then just closes without errors. Any ideas? | 03:23 |
| pdbogen | tle: I don't use totem, sorry. | 03:23 |
| DJCharlie | pdbogen: Pretty much. The firewalls are at 192.168.0.1 --> Modem and 192.168.254.1 --> Modem | 03:24 |
| juanca_ | pdbogen: thank you | 03:24 |
| droid7 | tle, install smplayer and all your problems will go away :) | 03:24 |

| bigtom21485 | droid7: what is smplayer? | 03:24 |
| pdbogen | tle: I would expect mplayer to produce more meaningful error messages. | 03:24 |
| droid7 | bigtom21485, a clean mplayer front end | 03:24 |
| lazyPower | bigtom21485, a media player similar to Totem / VLC. | 03:24 |

| droid7 | juanca, run what pdbogen said, but make sure only those you want to install are the only deb files (*.deb means all files with .deb extension) | 03:27 |

| Wingless | wait, I was trying to do what st__ suggested, but when I go to the directory that INSTALL is located in, and i type "INSTALL --help", I get bash: INSTALL: command not found | 03:48 |
| crankharder | why is mail -s "foo" root just hanging and hanging -- where can I see a log for what's goign on? | 03:48 |
| pdbogen | crankharder: 'mail' waits for input on stanard i. | 03:49 |
| morphonaut | How do I get Adobe Flash Player for the lastest version of Google Chrome? | 03:49 |
| gregcor | Wingless: install may just be a text file with installation instructions. Try "less INSTALL" | 03:49 |
| droid7 | Wingless, INSTALL is usually a file included with src packages on how to compile/install it | 03:49 |
| pdbogen | crankharder: Try "echo foo | mail -s 'foo' root" | 03:49 |
| tsimpson | Wingless: INSTALL is a text file, read it | 03:49 |
| aperson | my f9 key isn't recognized as a key anymore, but any combo with f9 works as expected, can anyone help? | 03:49 |
| digitalslave | crankharder, what mail daemon? and mail.log and messages usually works well | 03:49 |
| xangua | morphonaut: install it from repositories | 03:49 |
| droid7 | morphonaut, which 64/32bit? | 03:49 |
| morphonaut | 32bit. | 03:49 |
| tsimpson | bryanr: you may want to try #ubuntu-app-devel | 03:49 |
| crankharder | pdbogen thanx, that produced a postfix error, i'll go from there | 03:50 |
| bryanr | ty | 03:50 |
| droid7 | morphonaut, install flashplugin-nonfree | 03:50 |
| pdbogen | crankharder: No problem. | 03:50 |
| Wingless | I opened INSTALL; it's a bunch of code; there are no instructions | 03:50 |
| Wingless | It just says it's the Install Script for Acrobat Language kit | 03:50 |
| droid7 | Wingless, it's a script file. there's no INSTALL file because it is an executable itself | 03:50 |
| jrib | Wingless: what are you attempting to install? | 03:50 |
| Wingless | I see | 03:50 |
| Wingless | I'm trying to install Adobe's Japanese language pack. | 03:50 |
| droid7 | Wingless, follow the instructions I said a couple of minutes ago on how to install it | 03:51 |
| Wingless | But I'm sure I could install it if i wanted to | 03:51 |
| Wingless | the question is not how to install it | 03:51 |
| Wingless | but how to uninstall it once I've installed it | 03:51 |
| Wingless | I might want to | 03:51 |
| Wingless | but I'm worried that it won't communicate with the package manager | 03:51 |
| FloodBot2 | Wingless: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:51 |
| jrib | Wingless: you know evince is a great native linux pdf viewer? | 03:51 |
| droid7 | it should create an "uninstall" file in the install directory | 03:51 |
| morphonaut | I installed flashplayer-nonfree. Now what? | 03:51 |
| Wingless | I haven't heard of evince. Does it support Japanese fonts? | 03:51 |
| droid7 | morphonaut, restart chrome | 03:51 |
| jrib | Wingless: probably | 03:51 |
| morphonaut | Thanks, droid7! :D | 03:52 |
| droid7 | Wingless, installable executables don't communicate with package manager | 03:52 |
| Wingless | I have xpdf, but I'm suspicious that the Japanese fonts there are somewhat strange-looking, so I wanted to temporarily install Adobe Reader and its fonts, since I know those look normla. | 03:52 |
| droid7 | morphonaut, np | 03:52 |
| aperson | aha! it was the widget layer in compiz doing that | 03:52 |
| Wingless | Okay. Well I'm going to try running INSTALL, so hopefully it'll just create an UNINSTALL somewhere.......... | 03:52 |
| jrib | Wingless: there are lots of hits for installing xpdf-japanese | 03:52 |
| droid7 | Wingless, install scripts are the same as on windows. they install separately and they have their own unistall file | 03:52 |
| Wingless | I've already done that, jrib | 03:52 |
| morphonaut | Waaaaait a second. Myspace's music player is coming up as a black box now. | 03:52 |
| Wingless | like I said, I can view Japanese there, but I'm suspicious that the fonts aren't quite right | 03:52 |
| jrib | Wingless: I would try evince before resorting to adobe | 03:53 |
| Wingless | The thing is, I don't know what the font is supposed to look like, honestly | 03:53 |
| Wingless | But I know that Adobe would display it properly | 03:53 |
| Wingless | i don't know if evince would | 03:53 |
| Wingless | and I don't know if xpdf is | 03:53 |
| FloodBot2 | Wingless: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:53 |
| Wingless | therefore, I want to see it in Adobe | 03:53 |
| Wingless | but I don't want to wind up with stuff I can't uninstall easily | 03:54 |

| nhandler | Hello a, can I help you with something? | 03:54 |
| droid7 | Wingless, an install is just a bunch of files in a directory. If worse somes to worse you just remove the directory | 03:54 |

| mikeliss | digitalslave: any ideas where to find such a log? | 03:59 |
| jrib | Hitiek: does sudo anything else work? | 03:59 |
| mikeliss | digitalslave: Also, I think it should be fine, the script is a python script. | 03:59 |
| Hitiek | jrib: from my past experience with this issue. no, sudo anything else will also hang | 04:00 |
| jrib | Hitiek: "past experience with this issue"? This has happened before? | 04:00 |
| Hitiek | jrib: this has happened before. it happens roughly once every few months. | 04:00 |
| jrib | Hitiek: did you figure out the cause last time? | 04:01 |
| Hitiek | jrib: no. I've never been able to figure out the issue. I end up going to the server and shutting it down from a physically connected keyboard. | 04:01 |
| jrib | Hitiek: and after restart it worked again? | 04:02 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, you could just restart the ssh server | 04:02 |
| droid7 | *ssh service | 04:02 |
| Hitiek | jrib: yes, after a restart everything works fine again for another several months | 04:02 |
| a__ | hi | 04:02 |

| Hitiek | droid7: it is happening now | 04:07 |
| Hitiek | droid7: I am chatting with you from the same machine that is having the problem | 04:08 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, so you are on the server? | 04:08 |
| Hitiek | droid7: and I don't know my root password. I rely on sudo | 04:08 |
| isolat3dsh33p | !apport | 04:08 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, it should be the same | 04:08 |
| Hitiek | droid7: yes, I am on the server, using a vnc connection at the moment | 04:08 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, ok do "sudo su" | 04:09 |
| hanasaki | anyone have xrdp working ? I can only get it under the vnc connection and have keyboard mapping issues | 04:09 |
| droid7 | to get as root | 04:09 |
| jrib | Hitiek: if your /etc/hosts simply says "wendy", that's likely the issue | 04:09 |
| Hitiek | droid7: "sudo su" hangs | 04:09 |
| josh92651 | XFS mounting knowledge anyone? | 04:09 |
| Hitiek | jrib: why would it only be a problem every several months? | 04:10 |
| === mnepton is now known as mneptok | ||
| jrib | mikeliss: try digitalslave's suggestion about redirrecting the output, but also redirect stderr | 04:10 |
| scunizi | Hitiek: try sudo -i ... but why do you need to be logged in as root? | 04:10 |
| hanasaki | josh92651: sorry no... curious.. why XFS? | 04:10 |
| josh92651 | it was a NAS drive in RAID 1 | 04:10 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, ctrl + alt + f1 to get a new terminal up | 04:10 |
| jrib | Hitiek: we have to figure out the actual cause first to answer that. I can't think of anything | 04:10 |
| Hitiek | scunizi: my server currently stopped accepting ssh connections, and sudo hangs. | 04:10 |
| tomato | is there such thing as a remote file manager? | 04:11 |
| digitalslave | Hitiek, has you restarted sshd? | 04:11 |
| jrib | tomato: sure, why not? | 04:11 |
| thiebaude | Ken8521, it just restarts | 04:11 |
| mikeliss | jrib: Oh, missed that comment. I'm in business. | 04:11 |
| droid7 | digitalslave, sudo hangs | 04:11 |
| Hitiek | digitalslave: I can't restart sshd. I can't get root access to do so because sudo hangs | 04:11 |
| mikeliss | jrib, digitalslave: Thanks for the help. | 04:11 |
| tomato | jrib, i was thinking ftp, but like somethign that lets me drag things around | 04:11 |
| jrib | tomato: nautilus does that (file -> connect to server) | 04:12 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, do you have top or htop installed? | 04:12 |
| Ken8521 | thiebaude, even w/ the cli command? | 04:12 |
| scunizi | jrib: Hitiek I seem to remember when ssh stops accepting connections from another machine then there is a file that holds the keys for the ssh session that needs "cleaning" before the server will accept another connection | 04:12 |
| thiebaude | yes | 04:12 |
| Ken8521 | hmm | 04:12 |
| tomato | my goodness~ i must look that up | 04:12 |
| tomato | thanks jrib! | 04:12 |
| jrib | tomato: nautilus is the name of the default file manager in GNOME/ubuntu | 04:12 |
| thiebaude | lol | 04:12 |
| tomato | oh~ ha ha | 04:12 |
| droid7 | if sudo is hanging then it's not ssh | 04:12 |
| tomato | i'm running a server so it doesn't have X running | 04:12 |
| thiebaude | :) | 04:12 |
| jrib | tomato: oh. So you want something that could be called a "remote file manager" but without X? | 04:13 |
| droid7 | tomato, ssh + ls/cp/rm/mv | 04:13 |
| Hitiek | droid7: I just tried logging in as myself on the physical terminal. it hangs also | 04:13 |
| tomato | yeah, is there such thing without setting up X? | 04:13 |
| Hitiek | droid7: I do have top | 04:13 |
| tomato | ha ha, thanks droid7! i was hoping for another way though | 04:14 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, look in top for anything taking up cpu | 04:14 |
| droid7 | tomato, : p | 04:14 |
| jrib | tomato: well you can use something like sshfs or fuse with other things like ftp I guess... | 04:14 |
| droid7 | tomato, ftp server + nautiluz /ftp client? | 04:14 |
| Hitiek | droid7: my load average is 0.12, 0.05, 0.06 | 04:14 |
| tomato | yeah, i think ftp is my best bet | 04:14 |
| droid7 | wow this is weird | 04:14 |
| josh92651 | Can I copy an XFS partition to another file system partion? | 04:14 |
| Hitiek | droid7: noting using more than 2 percent cpu | 04:15 |
| tomato | cp and mv isn't that bad though | 04:15 |
| jrib | tomato: it's not clear what you want from a "remote file manager" that doesn't involve X though | 04:15 |
| tomato | jrib: agreed, i think i'm confused | 04:15 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, no X? | 04:15 |
| HowardtheDuck | hey. would ubuntu run fine on a gigabyte motherboard with integrated ati radeon 4200 | 04:16 |
| === aperson is now known as ghostperson | ||
| maginot | HowardtheDuck, sure | 04:16 |
| jrib | Hitiek: is /etc/hosts really just "wendy"? | 04:16 |
| tomato | HowardtheDuck: i have a gigabyte radon with integrated ATI and gigabit lan, works awesome | 04:16 |
| HowardtheDuck | yeah? | 04:16 |
| HowardtheDuck | but...i thought ati didn't have drivers for ubuntu? | 04:16 |
| tomato | yeah, got it a few days ago actually | 04:16 |
| Hitiek | droid7: I have a minimal X installed that I VNC into. I don't have X running on the physical terminal | 04:16 |
| maginot | HowardtheDuck, yes, it does | 04:16 |
| Hitiek | jrib: yes. just "wendy" | 04:16 |
| maginot | HowardtheDuck, good one though | 04:16 |
| jrib | Hitiek: well that's not normal. Are you sure you are checking /etc/hosts and not /etc/hostname? | 04:17 |
| tomato | HowardtheDuck: i don't run anything graphic intensive though, so i didn't bother with the drivers | 04:17 |
| Hitiek | jrib: ohhhhhh | 04:17 |
| Hitiek | jrib: sorry | 04:17 |
| HowardtheDuck | oh....well i'd like to have compiz and all that | 04:17 |
| maginot | Hitiek, what problem are you having ? | 04:17 |
| hiexpo | question is anyone else having a problem with medibuntu updates unable to connect to | 04:17 |
| Hitiek | jrib: hosts has a few entries for some machines on my LAN. nothing unusual | 04:17 |
| droid7 | Hitiek, so you're on the server via vnc and not physically on there? | 04:18 |
| Ken8521 | thiebaude, u still here? | 04:18 |
| HowardtheDuck | are the ati drivers just as easy to enable as the nvidia drivers? | 04:18 |
| maginot | HowardtheDuck, compiz will work fine for you | 04:18 |
| thiebaude | yes i am | 04:18 |
| Ken8521 | thiebaude, try this... sudo poweroff | 04:18 |
| thiebaude | ok | 04:18 |
| HowardtheDuck | i didn't download anything, i just enabled my nvidia drivers | 04:18 |
| jrib | Hitiek: what's on 127.*? | 04:18 |
| Hitiek | maginot: my server does not accept new ssh connections, sudo just hangs. I can't log in on the the physical terminal. | 04:18 |
| canthus13 | jrib: you are. | 04:18 |
| maginot | HowardtheDuck, they are close, I think you can download some ati drivers direct with apt, I don't know, I use Nvidia | 04:18 |
| jrib | canthus13: heh... | 04:18 |
| isidro1 | how can i get sound playback from line in????? | 04:18 |
| Hitiek | droid7: at this point I am both on via vnc and at the physical terminal, but can't log int at the the physical terminal | 04:19 |
| maginot | Hitiek, okay, so you have access to the terminal NOW, right? | 04:19 |
| digitalslave | Hitiek, logs full? | 04:19 |
| HowardtheDuck | yeah, i'd like to stay with nvidia, but only ati comes integrated on these gigabte mobos | 04:19 |
| droid7 | if you can't log in physicall it's not an ssh issue | 04:19 |
| droid7 | *physically | 04:19 |
| maginot | Hitiek, sorry, I mean DON'T have access | 04:19 |
| tomato | jrib: i just realized i could use samba and finder on osx | 04:20 |
| maginot | Hitiek, and how do you know the problem is being with sudo hanging? | 04:20 |
| jrib | tomato: that involves X, but ok :) | 04:20 |
| canthus13 | jrib: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/127.0.0.1 | 04:20 |
| Hitiek | the only access I currently have is through a vnc session. | 04:20 |
| tomato | jrib: very good point, i think i meant without installing an x server :) | 04:20 |
| jrib | canthus13: I know, I was asking a question in a different context for Hitiek | 04:20 |
| canthus13 | jrib: Ah. | 04:20 |
| * canthus13 scrolls back. | 04:20 | |
| maginot | Hitiek, so you're inside the machine on a VNC? well, this helps a lot | 04:20 |

| maginot | Hitiek, ? | 04:25 |
| tucemiux | isidro1, youre not being clear, jack is an application that is used to connect sources, do you want to hear the sound that is coming in through the line in, as in get "sound playback from line in"?? | 04:25 |
| isidro1 | yes, i want to hear sound from "Line-in" | 04:26 |
| droid7 | did you check to see if it's muted? | 04:26 |
| Hitiek | maginot: yes, no password for root and sudo hangs. can't log in a new session as a regular user either. | 04:26 |
| maginot | Hitiek, well, wan't try something? But need to be on private since is hacking. :) | 04:26 |
| droid7 | not much you can do without root | 04:27 |
| tucemiux | isidro1, right click on the volume icon and click on " sound preferences", in the "input" tab make sure the microphone is not muted | 04:27 |
| maginot | droid7, yes. Maybe we can. | 04:27 |
| Hitiek | results of "strace sudo echo hi" : http://pastebin.com/2VnajmW8 | 04:27 |
| isidro1 | and.... | 04:27 |
| maginot | droid7, his kernel may have a vunerability. | 04:27 |
| droid7 | maginot, yes, but that's not something you aught to be doing on a server | 04:28 |
| jrib | Hitiek: yeah, as we just found out you can't really strace sudo... :/ | 04:28 |
| Hitiek | jrib: was an interesting idea though | 04:28 |
| droid7 | what you can do | 04:29 |
| droid7 | is | 04:29 |
| isidro1 | what next??? | 04:29 |
| h00k | !root | Hitiek | 04:29 |
| ubottu | Hitiek: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 04:29 |
| maginot | droid7, well, maybe you are right, maybe is what he want or need at this moment, how can we know if he is the server owner | 04:29 |
| droid7 | try and edit the groups list with / mounted via live cd , and add your user to the root group | 04:29 |
| scunizi | h00k: you haven't been following.. that ubottu post wasn't necessary | 04:29 |
| h00k | scunizi: I haven't...I admit. | 04:29 |
| droid7 | maginot, he doesn't know root password | 04:30 |
| jrib | Hitiek: try "sudo -K" for kicks, though I can't think of something that would cause sudo issues, ssh issues, and login issues that disappears on reboots | 04:30 |
| Droopsta915 | I installed firestarter and its not letting me get into xchat or send e-mail unless I stop the fire wall. Any suggestions? | 04:30 |

| shaheenery | Hello, I am writing a paper for a college course, I'm looking for someone who worked in an IT department of any kind who could spare a little time to answer some questions for me? | 04:31 |
| Hitiek | jrib: sudo -K made no difference | 04:31 |
| jrib | Hitiek: did it also hang? | 04:31 |
| scunizi | digitalslave: that might prove interesting if his drive is *really* full.. might cause some issues | 04:31 |
| xangua | !ot > shaheenery | 04:31 |
| ubottu | shaheenery, please see my private message | 04:31 |
| maginot | droid7, I know he doesn't, if is a default ubunut install he haven't, it using sudo, that is why he is stucky at this moment to only one solution | 04:31 |
| hiexpo | droid7, so is it still down? | 04:32 |
| Hitiek | digitalslave: df -h shows nothing mounted that is over 90% full. the root partition has over 9 GB of free space | 04:32 |
| shaheenery | Ah....sorry. Thanks for the heads up xangua. | 04:32 |
| droid7 | hiexpo, probably. I disabled it for now | 04:32 |
| Hitiek | jrib: sudo -K did not hang, but then I tried sudo again and it still hangs | 04:32 |
| hiexpo | oh ok | 04:32 |
| HowardtheDuck | ok gonna go for this gigabyte 785GMT mobo, i hope the ATI drivers are good | 04:32 |
| droid7 | maginot, server installs prompt for root password unlike desktoip installs | 04:32 |
| HowardtheDuck | as good as Nvidia at least | 04:33 |
| jrib | droid7: not by default | 04:33 |
| droid7 | yes by default | 04:33 |
| hiexpo | droid7, i just wanted to make sure it wasn' just me | 04:33 |
| maginot | droid7, I'm trying to remember from my previous install and I don't remember that. | 04:33 |
| droid7 | hiexpo, yeah no problem | 04:33 |
| scunizi | HowardtheDuck: Hope? you better research what card is in there and what driver currently support.. better safe than sorry | 04:33 |
| droid7 | i installed 2 days ago | 04:33 |
| droid7 | it prompts root pass then adds user | 04:33 |
| droid7 | then prompts user pass | 04:33 |
| jrib | droid7: what version? | 04:33 |
| droid7 | 9.10 | 04:34 |

| isidro1 | i connect 2 "speakers" in "line in", why i have no sound????? | 04:34 |
| droid7 | maginot, root always has pass. if it doesn't ask it uses the first user createds' pass | 04:34 |
| scunizi | HowardtheDuck: good.. but don't tell me.. I'm an nvidia person | 04:34 |
| jrib | droid7: that's definitely not true.. | 04:34 |
| droid7 | so how does root get a pass then? | 04:35 |
| jrib | droid7: it doesn't | 04:35 |
| droid7 | .. | 04:35 |
| maginot | droid7, noooo | 04:35 |
| maginot | droid7, it does not | 04:35 |
| droid7 | then he should be able to login as root without a pass | 04:36 |
| droid7 | according to your logic | 04:36 |
| maginot | droid7, no man, really, no | 04:36 |
| jrib | droid7: the account is locked... | 04:36 |

| isidro1 | BOLUDOS!!!!! How i can get a "LINE-OUT" from "LINE-IN"??? | 04:37 |
| maginot | maginot> does ubuntu servr install prompt for a root password on install screen or I'm just confusing with something else? | 04:37 |
| maginot | <cn1109> maginot: It did not for me. Asked me for a new username and password | 04:37 |
| maginot | droid7, see, from #ubuntu-server ^ | 04:37 |
| droid7 | maginot, i don't know what you're trying to say. but i was asked for root pass when i installed 2 days ago | 04:37 |
| maginot | droid7, I'm saying your affirmations don't make sense in many ways. You are confused. | 04:38 |
| SylvanEdict | Hey can someone help me get sound out of my headphones?I have killed pulse audio and selected my video card in the alsamixer but still no luck | 04:38 |
| droid7 | maginot, have you used any other distro besides ubuntu? | 04:39 |
| maginot | droid7, yes, many other | 04:39 |
| l337ingDisorder | any permissions wizards in here? I'm wondering if there's a way to make it so any file created by user1 is automatically set to use root as its owner and group (both through SSH and FTP) - is this possible? | 04:39 |
| scunizi | droid7: we all know other distros have user and root password associations | 04:39 |
| eltume | the best distros are: linuxmint, ubuntu and openSUSE | 04:39 |
| digitalslave | droid7, ubuntu is not like many other distros - root is locked with no pass | 04:39 |
| droid7 | yes, for desktop | 04:40 |
| maginot | droid7, why you ask? Want my credencials? I have good ones I guarantee | 04:40 |
| droid7 | not server.. | 04:40 |
| isidro1 | how i found "Volume Control"???? | 04:40 |
| droid7 | why would root be disabled on a server.. | 04:40 |
| maginot | droid7, for many many reasonnn ! | 04:40 |
| jrib | l337ingDisorder: see if ACLs are sufficient for your needs... | 04:40 |
| digitalslave | droid7, why would it not?? | 04:40 |
| droid7 | you never use root, but you never disable it | 04:40 |
| scunizi | droid7: maginot this is getting off topic and should be moved to #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:41 |
| jrib | l337ingDisorder: (on ftp I imagine there is some setting you can use on the server, but I don't believe such a thing exists with ssh, so check out ACLs) | 04:41 |
| Hitiek | hmm .... "lsof" outputs about 270 lines of output and then hangs. Ctrl-C stops it at that point. | 04:41 |
| maginot | droid7, please, ready more about security. Root password isn't a good idea, using root direct isnt to, and I agree with scunizi, this discussion doesn't have sense | 04:41 |
| l337ingDisorder | basically i have a directory that is used as a webroot, /web/, and i have two users, user1 and user2. Both user1 and user2 need to be able to edit/upload files to /web/. I've created a group called webdev and added both users to the webdev group, and I've chgrp'ed /web/ to have webdev be its owner group. Both users are able to write to the directory, but when user1 writes a file it is owned... | 04:41 |
| l337ingDisorder | ...by user1 and user2 can not edit the file. Can anyone shed a bit of light on this? :) | 04:41 |
| * maginot go take some air ... jeez | 04:41 | |
| jrib | Hitiek: « free -m » out of curiousity? | 04:42 |
| droid7 | maginot, i know security just fine. | 04:42 |
| droid7 | now let's get back on topic | 04:42 |

| scunizi | l337ingDisorder: most apache stuff goes in /var/www/<something> .. on gnome you can't always tell by looking at the currently assigned groups but the group for apache on ubuntu is www-data or data-www (I forgot which).. | 04:43 |
| isidro1 | how i get sound out from "line-in" | 04:43 |
| l337ingDisorder | jrib: hmmm ACLs will work on the folder, but both users have access to write to the folder. The problem is when new files are created within the folder, they aren't created as owned by the folder's group but by the user's group (which is the group 'user1') | 04:43 |
| jrib | Hitiek: just curious since we checked cpu and disk space before | 04:43 |
| chai16 | how do i make certain windows minimize with other windows at the same time? | 04:43 |
| scunizi | l337ingDisorder: that group will not show up on the gui user/group control appelate typically | 04:44 |
| l337ingDisorder | lizthegrey: yea I'm hoping there's a way to make it so whenever user1 or user2 creates a file it automatically gets chgrp'ed | 04:44 |
| l337ingDisorder | scunizi: CLI only, ubuntu server | 04:44 |
| Hitiek | jrib: wonder what the chances are that upgrading the kernel would fix this. I know I have an upgrade waiting that I've been putting off because I don't like to reboot. | 04:44 |
| Hitiek | of course, once I give in and reboot, this won't happen again for a few months. | 04:45 |
| jrib | l337ingDisorder: ACLs will do what you want. But you don't need them. Just set the parent folder to have group webdev and setgid the folder. You'll also need to change the users' umasks so group can write. You probably *don't* want to change the users' default groups under this scenario | 04:45 |
| ouyes | hi | 04:45 |
| digitalslave | l337ingDisorder, change main user group to be the same for each user or umask needs to be set different | 04:45 |
| l337ingDisorder | digitalslave: how to you tell ubuntu what group it should consider as the main group? | 04:45 |
| jrib | Hitiek: hmm. I would run a memtest on the machine if you do reboot | 04:46 |
| l337ingDisorder | jrib: ok thanks I'll check out setgid | 04:46 |
| digitalslave | l337ingDisorder, usermod -g | 04:46 |
| Hitiek | jrib: memtest isn't a bad idea. I'll keep that in mind when I finally give up :-) | 04:47 |
| jrib | l337ingDisorder, edigitalslave: the issue with doing this is that files the user's create in their homes will have the group webdev | 04:47 |
| jrib | s/.// :/ | 04:47 |

| l337ingDisorder | jrib, digitalslave: also there's actually /web/site1/ and /web/site2/ that both users need access to, I was just using /web/ to simplify things | 04:48 |
| jrib | kareeser: ubiquity is the installer. You might want to ask #ubuntu-bugs | 04:48 |

| kareeser | jrib: thanks, will do | 04:49 |
| l337ingDisorder | jrib: ok I'm looking up setgid but the man page isn't too helpful and I can't find any examples on google. Can you give me an example of how I would use it in this scenario? | 04:49 |
| Hitiek | can't ssh. can't log in to physical terminal. sudo hangs. existing vnc, screen, irssi all still work. apache is fine. samba share doesn't seem to work. | 04:49 |
| jrib | l337ingDisorder: you can setgid on both with the right group and change the users' umask | 04:49 |
| jrib | l337ingDisorder: chmod g+s /path/to/dir | 04:49 |
| droid7 | ah it was a debian install i used not ubunut; just to clear things up. but my point still stands that root disabling is an ubuntu specific choice and not default behavior (a few disable it too, though) | 04:49 |
| jrib | droid7: it's default on ubuntu :) | 04:50 |

| aetaric | TayZonday: yes | 05:13 |
| h00k | TayZonday: that is not an Ubuntu related question, check ##hardware. Also, yes. | 05:13 |

| levar | aetaric: they are not answering me | 05:15 |
| aetaric | levar: then you have to wait | 05:15 |
| droid7 | Wingless, i think there's a menu option to open the config file (no gui). do a search for font and it should be in there somewhere. Or you can try with gedit instead | 05:15 |

| droid7 | so what's the story with gnome3 & gnome-shell? are they one in the same or no? | 05:23 |
| theadmin | droid7: gnome-shell is just a replacement for gnome-panel. GNOME3 is a fully new desktop | 05:24 |
| jjcv | karnage: Love gnome-shell. It is turning into something really positive. Lots to do you. | 05:24 |
| Hitiek | ok, I think the whole no ssh, sudo hangs thing happens when something goes wrong with my network. I seem to recall that from before, and today about 11 hours ago it looks like my network dropped. my dhcp client stopped putting entries in my log files. my syslog stopped accepting log entried from my router | 05:24 |
| droid7 | theadmin, is gnome-shell replacing gnome-panel in gnome3 or just a concept? | 05:24 |

| isolat3dsh33p | Ipsilon, could be hard disk failure. :/ | 06:44 |
| Ipsilon | would that only affect these types of apps | 06:44 |
| geekphreak | hi all | 06:44 |
| Ipsilon | hm.. nm. Open office just broze | 06:44 |
| Ipsilon | froze | 06:45 |
| Ken8521 | sounds like you got somethin serious going on. | 06:45 |
| Ipsilon | windows xp works fine.. that's odd | 06:45 |
| Ken8521 | tis was a fresh install, not an upgrade? | 06:45 |
| Ipsilon | fresh install | 06:45 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, not really, two different OS's. | 06:45 |
| Ipsilon | dual boot on the end of the hard drive | 06:45 |
| Ipsilon | Ken8521, well but if it's hardware issue.. | 06:45 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, it might be a hardware detection issue. | 06:46 |
| Ipsilon | meaning? | 06:46 |
| Ipsilon | Well in this case anyways | 06:46 |
| Ken8521 | meaning, hardware is made for windows, w/ windows drivers easily available... the same cannot be said for Linux | 06:46 |
| Ipsilon | oh | 06:46 |
| Ken8521 | 32 or 64bit? | 06:46 |
| Ipsilon | 32 bit | 06:46 |
| Ipsilon | hardware should work.. at least on 9.04 it idd | 06:47 |
| Ipsilon | did | 06:47 |
| Ipsilon | I have a D600 (dell) Pretty standard.. old.. but yeah | 06:47 |
| Ken8521 | still irrelevant, two different OS's | 06:47 |
| isolat3dsh33p | If it's hard disk failure, it should show you some error in the disk utility. :/ | 06:48 |
| Ipsilon | I can do a checkdisk. I'll do it on xp since it doesn't crash. It was telling me to do a chckdisk since i force quit windows | 06:49 |
| Ipsilon | Maybe it's a kernel issue.. since Mint 8 had the same issue | 06:49 |
| imjustaguy1983 | where can i get a copy of linux mint ? | 06:50 |
| Ipsilon | website | 06:50 |
| Ipsilon | http://www.linuxmint.com/ | 06:50 |
| geekphreak | hey isolat3dsh33p | 06:50 |
| jasonmchristos | spammer | 06:50 |
| geekphreak | isolat3dsh33p: did you got your issue fixed? | 06:50 |
| lumo74 | good morning to all... does anyone know how to adjust envelope icon in the tray on 9.10 UNR | 06:51 |
| imjustaguy1983 | lol figures , i thought it was discontinued or something | 06:51 |
| Wingless | Hi again. I just thought I'd come back to let you guys know I fixed my problem. It turns out you CAN view files encoded in ISO-2022-JP in gedit | 06:51 |
| jasonmchristos | lumo74: right click on it | 06:51 |
| oo_miguel | I just installed xubuntu on my notebook, but trying to start it, safe and normal mode, gives me some segfaults and panic ,... | 06:51 |
| hiexpo | !mint | 06:51 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 06:51 |
| oo_miguel | how can i resolve this? | 06:51 |
| Wingless | you can save them too. It's just that the only way to specify the encoding is when you open or save a file from within gedit itself; you won't get the chance to do that if you just open it up via the terminal or double click it while in the gui | 06:52 |
| Wingless | That is all. | 06:52 |
| dveusmat1 | Ipsilon .. chkdsk only does filesystem checking as far as I can tell, so probably little use running it on your windows (ntfs presumably) partitions | 06:52 |
| Ipsilon | yeah no. I just figured as much. eheh | 06:53 |
| lumo74 | If I do a right click I can just remove it from the panel but no settings availebal | 06:53 |
| Ipsilon | i'm just worried of freezing | 06:53 |
| Ipsilon | I'm also donwloading 10.4 to see if it's anny different. If not i'll try 9.04. After that is the towel | 06:53 |
| oo_miguel | how can i find out what is causing the segfaults and the panic... | 06:54 |
| oo_miguel | it worked all fine in live mode | 06:54 |
| Ipsilon | segfault? | 06:54 |
| Ipsilon | hehe good luck | 06:54 |
| dveusmat1 | have you tried running 9.10 as a live disk incase something went wrong during installation that's causing the problem? | 06:54 |
| Ipsilon | I'm gonna do that on 10.04 since I am doing pendrive install | 06:54 |
| oo_miguel | i gar a lot of segmnentation faults and finally kernel panic trying to log into my new installation of ubuntu | 06:54 |
| oo_miguel | dveusmat1: live mode works fine | 06:55 |
| imjustaguy1983 | does anyone know when the final release date is of 10.04 | 06:55 |
| Ipsilon | as far as i can tell there is no easy way of finding the cause of segfaults | 06:55 |
| nmvictor | so it not possible to install ubuntu netbook remix in a Toshiba yet I saw it install in a HP, whats happening? | 06:55 |
| Ipsilon | 10 days imjustaguy1983 ? | 06:55 |
| Ipsilon | april 29 i beliefe | 06:55 |
| imjustaguy1983 | lol and i just got 9.10 how i like it lmao | 06:55 |
| Ipsilon | eheh | 06:56 |
| Ipsilon | yeah | 06:56 |
| zenlunatic | Ipsilon, google ubuntu release schedule | 06:56 |
| Ken8521 | imjustaguy1983, 10.04 is awesome. | 06:56 |
| Ken8521 | !lucid | 06:56 |
| ubottu | Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 06:56 |
| imjustaguy1983 | will i have to make a fresh cd or is it all under update manager | 06:56 |
| Ipsilon | zenlunatic, I was answering. Not asking. But thnx | 06:56 |
| Flannel | imjustaguy1983: You can upgrade | 06:56 |
| Ken8521 | imjustaguy1983, you can either do distro-upgrade or clean nstall it.. i always do clean installs | 06:57 |
| zenlunatic | imjustaguy1983, read the release notes | 06:57 |
| Ken8521 | !upgrade | imjustaguy1983 | 06:57 |
| ubottu | imjustaguy1983: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 06:57 |
| Ipsilon | if i install beta.. is it easy to upgrade? | 06:57 |
| imjustaguy1983 | yea i'm kinda new to linux after being on windows all my life | 06:57 |
| oo_miguel | i have a su4100 1.3ghz 64bit might that be causing the problem? | 06:57 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, what do you mean?... | 06:57 |
| imjustaguy1983 | i barely handle the sudo apt thing and thats on myachi | 06:57 |
| Ipsilon | or do you not need to upgrade? | 06:58 |
| nmvictor | Im not comfortable with 9.10 save for the 2.6.31.x kernel, latest gnome and link to a more update java, however what happened to pimping the ligin window with custom GDM themes? | 06:58 |
| nmvictor | Im not comfortable with 9.10 save for the 2.6.31.x kernel, latest gnome and link to a more update java, however what happened to pimping the login window with custom GDM themes? | 06:58 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, as long as you keep your system up to date, when the final release comes, you will be current | 06:58 |
| Ipsilon | ok, thnx | 06:58 |
| Ipsilon | that is if it works | 06:58 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, since you're apparently new, I'd hold off till saturday, thats when the release candidate becomes available. | 06:58 |
| Ipsilon | I'm not that new to linux. I just have never upgraded. And not much ubuntu | 06:59 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, well, i've never upgraded, so i can't really tell you anything about that process... | 06:59 |
| Ipsilon | the thing is that I want to see if the kernel works. Which is why i'm going for the beta right now | 06:59 |
| Ipsilon | if not.. i'll just forget about it | 06:59 |
| imjustaguy1983 | i'm in the same boat ipsilon but i plan on clean installing mine | 06:59 |
| lumo74 | Ipsilon.. I did an upgrade twice and it never works for me. Keeping a home partitionand making a clean setup is my favorit | 07:00 |
| Ipsilon | On my main desktop i have debian on dual boot. I'm talking about my laptop here. Which is why it's causing so many problems | 07:00 |
| zenlunatic | !ubuntu+1 | 07:00 |
| ubottu | Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 07:00 |
| Ipsilon | I guess i can do clean setup. It's just a pain to have it for a few days.. but it can't be helped since i need to make sure it'll work | 07:00 |
| Ken8521 | lumo74, i don't even keep a separate home... | 07:00 |
| Ipsilon | I don't either | 07:01 |
| imjustaguy1983 | but the stable version will be released on april 29th ? | 07:01 |
| lumo74 | why? it seams to be secure and easy | 07:01 |
| Ken8521 | imjustaguy1983, yes. | 07:01 |
| Ken8521 | lumo74, why do i not keep a separate home?. i just don't... i keep detailed notes on settings, etc.. and all my important files, music, etc. are on a completely separate partition. | 07:02 |
| isolat3dsh33p | geekphreak, nope. | 07:02 |
| Ipsilon | I never keep separate partitions for linux. Because up to now for different reasons Linux can never be my main OS | 07:02 |
| Ken8521 | lumo74, so when i reinstall, i just delete my / partition, and install the new version of ubuntu onto the free space, and thats that... then its just a matter of adding software i want, and removing software I don't. | 07:02 |
| nmvictor | I hope Lucid Lynx will be better than karmic, i just dont like karmic so im gonna endure it for the sake of a quick upgrade to Lucid and if Lucid doesnt seem different Im gonna slip back to Jaunty, | 07:02 |
| imjustaguy1983 | what's the codename for 10.04 again ? i'm sorry . i got a.d.d. so i forget easily | 07:02 |
| Ipsilon | so it's just my little second partition that has Debian, Arch or Ubuntu. Depending on my mood (?) | 07:03 |
| imjustaguy1983 | nvm the nmvictor | 07:03 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, i keep XP on vbox to sync my zune, but other than that, i don't use it. | 07:03 |
| Ipsilon | Ken8521, Netflix for me :/ | 07:03 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, yeah... you could probably do that w/ vbox | 07:03 |
| Ipsilon | yeah... pitb | 07:03 |
| Ken8521 | yea | 07:04 |
| Ken8521 | and probably choppy anyways | 07:04 |
| Ipsilon | I like win 7 anyways. So it's not a big deal | 07:04 |
| Ipsilon | But it always feels like some force doesn't want me to have linux as my main OS. | 07:04 |
| lumo74 | Ken8521. Same process to me. I just boot the new version, format all partition and mount the home without making the hook on format that's all. Then I have a script that creates a list of installed packages. after executing this I just have to reistall my printer.. | 07:05 |
| Ipsilon | heheh. someday I gues | 07:05 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, adapt and overcome.. :) | 07:05 |
| imjustaguy1983 | thanks all for your help , have a good night | 07:05 |
| geekphreak | hi Ken8521 :) | 07:05 |
| Ken8521 | geekphreak, :) do i know you | 07:05 |
| Ipsilon | I'm not gonna switch until everything I need is not available on linux. I'm not going to change my ways for it. I think it's pretty sensical. | 07:06 |
| Ipsilon | linux = whatever distro | 07:06 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | I have six OS installed on my laptop. winxp, win7, ubuntu, openSUSE, Fedora and Mandriva. Ubuntu is my main system. | 07:06 |
| geekphreak | Ken8521: we just met in #ubuntu+1 :p | 07:06 |
| Ipsilon | winxp and 7? ahah | 07:06 |
| Ken8521 | um, ok... | 07:06 |
| Ipsilon | what obscure app are you running? | 07:06 |
| Ken8521 | lol | 07:06 |
| iOmlette | Windows 7. | 07:06 |
| Ken8521 | windows 7 isn't really an obscure app | 07:07 |
| Ipsilon | no, i meant why he was running xp and 7 | 07:07 |
| Ipsilon | since there aren't many apps that don't run on 7 | 07:07 |
| Ipsilon | win 7 is not really an app anyways | 07:07 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Ipsilon, GAG, boot loader/manager can boot up to 9 OS | 07:07 |
| clarkb | sure it is | 07:07 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, i know, look at what iOmlette said... | 07:07 |
| clarkb | the kernel is a special application | 07:08 |
| Ipsilon | yeah, no one would call it an application. | 07:08 |
| Ipsilon | rafaelsoaresbr, I guess you have your reasons. I just hate clutter.. could never have so many OS's | 07:08 |
| Pingu | hey | 07:08 |
| Pingu | I have a memory problem | 07:09 |
| Ipsilon | 10.04 here i come i guess | 07:09 |
| geekphreak | Ipsilon: its a good system , i love it | 07:10 |
| Ken8521 | Ipsilon, i would download the release candidate daily | 07:10 |
| Ken8521 | i think its more stable than the beta2.... | 07:10 |
| bon_ | Test it with memtest86 | 07:10 |
| Ipsilon | hehe, now you tell me :P | 07:10 |
| Ken8521 | didn't know you were downloading | 07:10 |
| Ipsilon | geekphreak, whether is good or not is irrelevant at this point. I need it to work right now | 07:10 |
| Ipsilon | i finished Ken8521 eheh | 07:10 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Ipsilon, It's Freedom. | 07:10 |
| Ipsilon | i'll go with it. I just need to test kernel | 07:10 |
| Pingu | no | 07:10 |
| Ipsilon | I'll get stable when it comes | 07:10 |
| Ipsilon | rafaelsoaresbr, I'm glad it works for you. I just have long boot times i guess | 07:11 |
| Pingu | I mean - I have 4096mB RAM (according to the BIOS) | 07:11 |
| Pingu | but Kubuntu Hardy shows only 3.2GB | 07:11 |
| clarkb | 32bit? | 07:11 |
| Pingu | yeah | 07:12 |
| tsimpson | !pae | 07:12 |
| ubottu | To use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info | 07:12 |
| clarkb | or get 64bit | 07:12 |
| Pingu | when I tried the 64 bit livecd it showed the same | 07:12 |
| fungo_ | any one meet this problem,when boot Ubuntu,it give a error message like this "error:environment block too small" | 07:12 |
| tsimpson | the advantage of installing the -pae kernel is that you don't have to reinstall | 07:12 |
| try | 很多 | 07:12 |
| Pingu | installed the linux-server kernel and headers | 07:12 |
| bon_ | You have to use amd64 version of Ubuntu, not 32 bit | 07:12 |
| Pingu | I followed these steps - same | 07:15 |
| Pingu | I have the PAE server kernel - but still get the same memory | 07:15 |
| clarkb | Pingu: try the 64bit livecd again and run uname -a to be double sure you are running a 64bit kernel | 07:16 |
| Pingu | total used free shared buffers cached | 07:16 |
| Pingu | Mem: 3295 1748 1547 0 126 1191 | 07:16 |
| Pingu | here is my free -m output | 07:16 |
| Pingu | I'll try that again - but I remember the "kernel is alive" message at the bottom of the screen when booting | 07:18 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | does empathy have autocompletion feature? | 07:18 |
| Pingu | could it be a BIOS or motherboard issue? | 07:18 |
| Pingu | I have an HP DX2300 MocroTower | 07:18 |
| Pingu | I install 2x2GB 800MHz DDR2 DIMMs | 07:19 |
| geekphreak | rafaelsoaresbr: afaik , i dont think auto complete works on empathy | 07:19 |
| Pingu | The MoBo works @ 667 MHz | 07:19 |
| eveningsky | When I press the keyboard shortcut for a new Tomboy note it opens 4 new ones instead of 1. So far to fix it, I've tried changing the shortcut in case the button was sticking and removing/installing Tomboy in Synaptic. I'm running Ubuntu Studio Lucid fully updated. | 07:19 |
| Pingu | So the BIOS shows 4096 @ 667 MHz | 07:19 |
| Jordan_U | !lucid | eveningsky | 07:20 |

| Pingu | clarkb: I'll try again... | 07:21 |
| === shazbotmcnasty is now known as Shazbot|BUSY | ||
| tsimpson | Pingu: the only way to tell if it's a motherboard/bios issue would be to boot a 64bit OS (or LiveCD) and checking how much memory it sees | 07:21 |
| eveningsky | Is it not okay to ask her too? There's 5 times as many people in here and I don't know if the issue is related to lucid. | 07:21 |
| Ken8521 | eveningsky, mods will tell you to go to +1 | 07:22 |
| Pingu | even if the BIOS shows 4096 MB? | 07:22 |
| tsimpson | if the BIOS shows 4GB, then it's not an issue with that | 07:22 |
| Pingu | cool | 07:22 |
| tsimpson | are you running the pae kernel? | 07:22 |
| Pingu | I am | 07:23 |

| Pingu | You can always edit the entries manually by pressing the "e" on the item | 07:31 |
| tonyyarusso | nhawdge|work: What's the drive mounted as? | 07:31 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | kmels, pastebin your fdisk -l | 07:31 |
| cassati | ? | 07:31 |
| nhawdge|work | tonyyarusso: it should be mounted as 'rw' | 07:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | kmels, rafaelsoaresbr you'll need to use "sudo fdisk -l" to get any output | 07:32 |
| tonyyarusso | nhawdge|work: I meant what mount point? /, /home, ...? | 07:32 |
| nhawdge|work | tonyyarusso: Oh, sorry, yeah it's just a single disk mounted as / | 07:32 |
| tonyyarusso | nhawdge|work: Yeah, you can't have / be ro and still use it for much of anything. | 07:33 |

| Pingu | so - any way to make sure the PAE is enabled? | 07:34 |
| Pingu | or if it is the server kernel it's there? | 07:34 |
| clarkb | Pingu: if you boot a 64bit kernel and have 4gb you know pae is not properly enabled. You also have the solution :) | 07:35 |
| Pingu | grepping for pae in the /var/log/messages also comes back blank | 07:35 |
| d3vlabs|ubuntu | i need help unraring a file | 07:35 |
| Pingu | clarkb: ? | 07:35 |
| d3vlabs|ubuntu | .rar i have says read only | 07:36 |
| clarkb | Pingu: it sounds like PAE is not properly enabled | 07:36 |

| d3vlabs|ubuntu | thanks | 07:36 |
| Pingu | I have the linux-kernel running and it still sees only 3.2 GB out of the 4GB that the BIOS sees | 07:36 |
| clarkb | Pingu: is it i686 as before? | 07:37 |
| Pingu | clarkb: so how do I fix this? | 07:37 |
| clarkb | if so that is why | 07:37 |
| clarkb | use a 64bit kernel | 07:37 |
| clarkb | or use PAE | 07:37 |
| Pingu | clarkb: perhaps I was unclear | 07:37 |
| Pingu | I have Hardy 32bit OS | 07:38 |
| nicolayc | ciao | 07:38 |
| clarkb | Pingu: and that is why you dont see all 4gb | 07:38 |
| Pingu | I have linux-server kernel and headers installed - which I understand should enable PAE on a 32BIT OS | 07:38 |
| Pingu | my question - how do I fix this? | 07:39 |
| Pingu | where do I look for the PAE if it's enabled or not? | 07:39 |
| Pingu | How do I install the 64BIT kernel? | 07:40 |

| brahmana|web | Hi all, | 07:43 |
| jo_ | Hi | 07:43 |
| brahmana|web | Is there a page which lists the kernel version associated with every ubuntu release? | 07:43 |
| brahmana|web | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases does not carry that information | 07:44 |
| Jordan_U | Pingu: No, but it is the server kernel. What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 07:44 |
| SandGorgon | blkperl, looks like 9.10 onwards, it has been changed to rsyslog.d/*.conf | 07:45 |
| Jordan_U | brahmana|web: packages.ubuntu.com | 07:45 |
| Pingu | Hardy | 07:45 |
| blkperl | SandGorgon: well they havn't updated to 9.10 yet so that makes sense | 07:45 |
| Pingu | Jordan_U: I have installed all the linux-server packages | 07:45 |
| brahmana|web | Jordan_U: Are you suggesting that I should look at the kernel package version for that release on packages.ubuntu.com? | 07:46 |
| Jordan_U | brahmana|web: Yes. | 07:46 |

| Jordan_U | halsafar: You should set PATH in .profile instead of .bashrc (.profile is run at login, .bashrc is run every time you start a bash shell) | 07:47 |
| halsafar | hmm, i always thought the standard was to use .bashrc, will make the change and see. | 07:48 |
| Pingu | Jordan_U: any ideas? | 07:48 |

| jo_ | Hi | 07:51 |
| Jordan_U | Pingu: I'm checking right now to see if hardy's server kernel has PAE, if not you may want to wait a week for lucid to be released and upgrade to that (installing the -pae kernel rather than the -server kernel) | 07:51 |
| === libertiy is now known as libertiy|away | ||
| halsafar | Unfortunately still no luck. My menu shortcut is /opt/eclipse/eclipse. If I run the same from terminal it works. Very odd. I suppose I can start a gnome-terminal in my shortcut to run the command... | 07:53 |
| Jordan_U | Pingu: It looks like Hardy's server kernel does support PAE, can you pastebin the output of "free -m"? | 07:53 |
| Jordan_U | halsafar: You will need to log out for changes in .profile to take affect | 07:54 |

| Pingu | and 'ubuntu-netbook-remix-default-settings | 09:04 |
| geekphreak | geany is an IDE which support many languages including c/c++, has supprt for debugging and building | 09:04 |
| Pingu | Bearman: it might change the look and feel from desktop to netbook, though | 09:05 |
| Jordan_U | senthil: I don't understand what problem you are having, everything you've stated sounds like normal operation for vi. | 09:05 |
| Bearman | Pingu, sorry. I run into trouble when tryin to install, it says "broken packages" and so on... It might depend on me running 10.04 beta? | 09:05 |
| geekphreak | senthil: btw escape for command mode, then x to delete on vi | 09:06 |

| senthil | geekphreak: i cant get U... | 09:08 |
| senthil | geekphreak: how to install that geany | 09:08 |
| Jordan_U | senthil: If you press escape you'll see that it actually has deleted the characters, it's nice when you are trying to rewrite something to be able to see what was there previously (though it is very unintuitive). | 09:08 |
| Pingu | Bearman: oh, yeah | 09:09 |
| geekphreak | senthil: open terminal >> sudo apt-get install geany | 09:09 |
| Pingu | I guess you'd better wait for the final release and then try the netbook remix | 09:09 |
| aetr | rnet.c? | 09:10 |
| Jordan_U | senthil: You might want to use an easier editor like nano or gedit. If you want to continue using vi I highly recommend you run "vimtutor" to learn the basics. | 09:10 |

| Beyecixramd | hello people, anyone knows how to block most known proxies? (i prefer to use /etc/hosts, but anything else is still okay) or a very complete proxy list at least | 09:21 |
| kyrix | csaba: the off topic rule is there so people who want help can get it | 09:21 |
| ikonia | hi have you looked at /etc/alternatives ? | 09:22 |
| csaba | Beyecixramd, that's off topic | 09:22 |
| kyrix | csaba: its not about policing or whatever. but its hard to follow fast channels when you are maybe, say, also working | 09:22 |
| elky | great minds. | 09:22 |
| elky | kyrix, ignore. he's only trying to be as painful as possible. | 09:22 |
| hunahpu | Beyecixramd: I guess you can go to proxy.org and create your own list to add to /etc/hosts | 09:23 |
| bi-ping | okey, so, nothing but arguing whether it's off-topic? | 09:23 |
| ikonia | hi have you looked at /etc/alternatives ? | 09:23 |
| ikonia | bi-ping: have you looked at /etc/alternatives | 09:23 |

| nexus6 | before i brought the notebook in it crashed on ubuntu AND win7 | 09:29 |

| ikonia | bi-ping: or option reasons so you can chose which version of things you want | 09:30 |
| ikonia | nexus6: now it's only crashing with windows, so see if the guys in ##windows can help debug it | 09:30 |
| nexus6 | first they said its the motherboard and then they said its the harddrive. after all they switched the hardrive | 09:30 |
| ikonia | nexus6: it may be a hardware error, but they can help make sense of it | 09:30 |

| ikonia | tsccof: please don't talk nonsense | 09:55 |
| n0xie | aah thanks eveningsky | 09:55 |
| n0xie | I added layout USA Internation (with dead keys) | 09:55 |
| n0xie | and that works | 09:55 |
| ikonia | tsccof: ubuntu is perfectly good for learning linux, and is more adopted by businesses than slackware so more valuable in real world experience | 09:56 |
| tsccof | ikonia: not talking to you | 09:56 |
| n0xie | thanks for the quick response | 09:56 |
| ikonia | tsccof: I'm asking you to stop talking nonsense | 09:56 |
| llutz | tsccof: slackware is different but "real linux", rofl stop spreading FUD | 09:56 |
| eveningsky | n0xie, cool, there are a couple of switchers available for the task tray if you want to change on the fly | 09:56 |
| tsccof | I don't think ubuntu is real linux | 09:57 |
| tsccof | oh, you have got a kernel | 09:57 |
| tsccof | is it vanilla? | 09:57 |
| eveningsky | n0xie, type "keyboard switcher" into Synaptic | 09:57 |
| ikonia | tsccof: then don't ssay anything | 09:57 |
| llutz | tsccof: there is no "real linux" except the kernel | 09:57 |
| tsccof | is the kernel vanilla? | 09:57 |
| AdvoWork` | n0xie, kyrix any ideas about the lines on my monitor? wouldnt get rid of them until i rebooted | 09:57 |
| ikonia | tsccof: no, ubuntu applys back port patches | 09:57 |
| tsccof | or will it crash when compiled manually, just like Fedora 12 did? | 09:57 |
| tsccof | oh there you go | 09:57 |
| n0xie | AdvoWork`, donno | 09:58 |
| tsccof | does it use SysVInit? | 09:58 |
| ikonia | tsccof: please stop talking nonsense, a patched kernel does not change anything | 09:58 |
| tsccof | no, upstart, is that one found on most other distros, no | 09:58 |
| llutz | tsccof: you don't know what you're talking about | 09:58 |
| ikonia | tsccof: fedora, and rhel6 - yes | 09:58 |
| tsccof | rhel6? 5.5 just shipped out | 09:58 |
| ikonia | tsccof: correct, it's not released yet | 09:58 |
| tsccof | oddly enough, the vast majority of Ubuntu users can only use Ubuntu, and have to learn many new things when switching to another distribution | 09:59 |
| tsccof | because it is not "general Linux knowledge" | 09:59 |
| tsccof | it is distro specific knowledge | 09:59 |
| ikonia | tsccof: again - stop talking nonsense, it's the same thing | 10:00 |

| llutz | tsccof: even you don't know the difference between linux and GNU | 10:00 |
| tsccof | llutz: how do you know how much I know? can you read minds? | 10:00 |
| tsccof | you must be wise ;) | 10:00 |
| ikonia | tsccof: distro specific is true of every distro, however as ubuntu is picked up by businesses more it's a valid experience, | 10:00 |
| ikonia | tsccof: telling someone in this channel that ubuntu is not real linux is unacceptable, do you understand that | 10:00 |
| llutz | tsccof: i read the nonsense you spread here | 10:01 |
| tsccof | ikonia: cd /etc && find rc.d | 10:01 |
| ikonia | tsccof: that's not what I asked - telling someone in this channel that ubuntu is not real linux is unaccaptable - do you understand ? | 10:01 |

| Gryllida | but this is Perl, what are the IO::Select, IO::Pipe? | 10:07 |
| llutz | Gryllida: those are perl modules | 10:08 |
| kyrix | Gryllida, i dont know any perl, they might or not be in the repo. if they are not, you will have to install them manually | 10:08 |
| nir2000 | kyrix does eclipse exists in Linux? | 10:08 |

| goez | Gryllida: This package provides a Perl interpreter and the small subset of the standard run-time library required to perform basic tasks. For a full Perl installation, install "perl" (and its dependencies, "perl-modules" and "perl-doc"). | 10:17 |

| kyrix | shleda: hmm strange. did you check permissions? | 10:20 |
| Curly_Q | AdvoWork there is a big difference with using LCD versus CRT screens. | 10:20 |
| shleda | kyrix: I did, strangely everything is owned by root in windows partitions and non root can still read write to these partitions | 10:21 |
| Gryllida | sudo apt-get install perl-modules -how do i get list of the modules I installed?? | 10:22 |
| kyrix | antgel: looks difficult ;) checking to see if there is dhcp requests coming in would be a start... | 10:22 |

| ranjan | which ssh | ln | 10:24 |
| Gryllida | csaba: cpan perl-modules ?? | 10:24 |
| rww | ranjan: what do you think that command should do? | 10:24 |
| antgel | kyrix: the router is fine, handing out dhcp. i know that because they can connect to it wirelessly using a laptop | 10:24 |
| shleda | kyrix: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/tth6cAYH | 10:24 |
| antgel | kyrix: thanks for responding by the way | 10:25 |
| ranjan | rww, the which command outputs the string ie the file path...and ln should count it | 10:25 |
| ranjan | rww, isnt it?? | 10:25 |
| geekphreak | hi all | 10:25 |
| rww | ranjan: ln is used to making symlinks, not for counting things | 10:25 |
| kyrix | antgel: have you tried a manual ifup? | 10:25 |
| kyrix | antgel, to see output? | 10:25 |
| geekphreak | rww: howdy | 10:25 |
| antgel | kyrix: it's some network manager thing. like the unanswered http://swiss.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1368176 | 10:25 |
| ranjan | rww, oh sorry my mistake....take the another thing..... | 10:26 |
| ranjan | rww, which ssh | ldd | 10:26 |
| antgel | kyrix: no, can call them and try it. i've never ever liked network manager, grr | 10:26 |
| ranjan | rww, why doesnt this work | 10:26 |
| rww | ranjan: presumably because ldd is also not for counting things | 10:26 |
| rww | ranjan: are you trying to print the shared module dependencies of the ssh program? | 10:27 |
| geekphreak | ikonia: hello | 10:27 |
| ranjan | rww, no i know that...but the output of which is not passed to ldd | 10:27 |
| ranjan | rww, yes | 10:27 |
| ikonia | hello | 10:27 |
| Gryllida | sudo apt-get install perl-modules -how do i get list of the modules I installed? with cpan? how? is it cpan perl-modules? | 10:27 |
| rww | ranjan: ldd `which ssh` | 10:27 |
| ranjan | rww, i know that ldd /usr/bin/ssh will do | 10:27 |
| llutz | ranjan: ldd $(which ssh) | 10:27 |
| ranjan | rww, llutz but why the way i said dont work?? | 10:28 |
| joaopinto | rww, that does not work because ldd does not read the standard input | 10:28 |
| ranjan | rww, llutz whats the reason | 10:28 |
| llutz | ranjan: see joaopinto | 10:28 |
| joaopinto | command1 | command2 is not the same as command1 command2 | 10:28 |
| joaopinto | for that you use xargs | 10:28 |
| rww | ranjan: because | pipes the stdout of which to the stdin of ldd, which is entirely different from putting the output of which in the argument list of ldd | 10:28 |
| rww | joaopinto: my command works fine, I assume you meant to reply to ranjan? | 10:29 |
| joaopinto | on this case it's easier to just use: ldd $(which ssh) | 10:29 |
| llutz | ranjan: which ssh|xargs ldd | 10:29 |
| joaopinto | rww, right | 10:29 |
| shleda | kyrix: did you have a chance to look at the file? | 10:29 |
| ranjan | llutz, thats great....that works...btw what is xargs | 10:29 |
| llutz | ranjan: man xargs | 10:29 |
| joaopinto | ranjan, man xargs | 10:29 |

| shleda | kyrix: interestingly all my data is on windows partition, and evolution can read write from those partitions | 10:30 |
| Gryllida | how do I instaall cpan? sudo apt-get install cpan? | 10:30 |
| rww | kyrix: ntfs is read-only, ntfs-3g is read-write. They're both maintained. | 10:30 |

| Curly_Q | Littlepenguin, you may have spilled a liquid on your keyboard. Try another keyboard. | 11:52 |

| cortexman | I wrote a script called apt-home that solves the problem I asked about in here earlier http://grey.colorado.edu/mingus/index.php/apt-home | 11:55 |

| znxtch | I'm not sure if it's appropriate to ask here but can anyone suggest a best course of action for downloading music in Ubuntu. Pay services that is. | 11:56 |
| cortexman | this is the internet | 11:56 |
| znxtch | The two stores in Music Store aren't doing it for me | 11:56 |
| cortexman | and THIS is irc | 11:56 |
| znxtch | Can I add any additional stores? | 11:56 |
| Curly_Q | Littlepenguine, that happens with a buffer overflow in most cases. But if it happens often, it is a keyboard issue. Try another keyboard and see if your guess is correct. | 11:57 |
| poutine | cortexman, this fails when installing a new kernel | 11:57 |
| znxtch | Correction stores in Rhythmbox. | 11:57 |
| littlepenguin | ööö curly sure a buffer overflow?? | 11:57 |
| cortexman | poutine, well it *does* say caveat emptor. if you need a new kernel use pbuilder:) | 11:57 |
| cortexman | this will install almost every app... | 11:57 |
| littlepenguin | that happens only in my ubuntu machine..installed in vmware | 11:57 |
| poutine | cortexman, How do I know whether your hokey script will work or not? | 11:58 |
| cortexman | read and understand the code | 11:58 |
| poutine | it fails with the kernel | 11:58 |
| poutine | So I have to become a programmer to use your app effectively? | 11:58 |
| cortexman | its only 6 lines of code fercryinoutloud | 11:58 |
| Curly_Q | Littlepenguin, it may be that you need to go to the keyboard settings and check the REPEAT settings and SPEED of REPEAT. | 11:58 |
| cortexman | trollol | 11:58 |
| littlepenguin | ah ok..thanks curly | 11:58 |
| poutine | cortexman, it fails with kdelibs | 11:59 |

| dariusvw | i just set up Ubuntu, i got internet to work through my works proxy, but there are allot of port restrictions. So i Tried toput it on a direct IP, but it will not accept a Gateway setting | 12:04 |
| killaz_ | ok yeah but i heard i think its bejin the most infected place in the world for bot i just dont get it (ok the bot to answer question is far from bein a nuissance) | 12:04 |
| Curly_Q | Dariusvw if you are behind a subnet firewall and your work place allows certain traffic and you try to override the default gateway, then, there may be router rules for that in your case. Because if you are a 192.168.0.104 behind an allowed DHCP router and you try to be the default gateway, you may and will be blocked. The default gateway router only sees your DHCP router address and ignores your address. | 12:08 |
| littlepenguin | but there is an option....im using the irc through desproxy | 12:08 |
| littlepenguin | you can proxy any port then ;:D | 12:09 |

| killaz_ | francois pourquoi tu le fait pas avec gimp ? | 12:09 |
| Angel_Tears | i installed ubunto 9.35 i guess once | 12:09 |
| graffz` | what could be the most suitable/compatible release of ubuntu for compaq presario m2000?. | 12:09 |
| Angel_Tears | i dont have my network driver for my computer | 12:09 |
| Angel_Tears | and i dont have an internet connection | 12:10 |
| erUSUL | francois: with dd's seek option ? | 12:10 |
| Angel_Tears | how can i get the drivers for my computer ? | 12:10 |
| iceroot | Angel_Tears: download it with another pc which have internet-access | 12:10 |
| Angel_Tears | thats the only way? isnt there like a database for drivers in ubunto? | 12:10 |
| francois | erUSUL: I tried: sudo dd of=/swap.img seek=8186760 bs=1k count=0 | 12:10 |
| erUSUL | Angel_Tears: ubuntu includes most/all drivers | 12:10 |
| francois | but it does not change anything | 12:11 |
| dariusvw | Curly_Q i am trying a direct to the router connection | 12:11 |
| littlepenguin | angel try install through ubuntu cd | 12:11 |
| Angel_Tears | erUSUL: it had none of my computer drivers | 12:11 |
| erUSUL | francois: not surprising if count is 0; is it? | 12:11 |
| Angel_Tears | am totally new to ubunto, it toke me a day to install it | 12:11 |
| killaz_ | lol | 12:11 |
| Angel_Tears | ya | 12:11 |
| killaz_ | a day wow | 12:11 |
| Curly_Q | Dariusvw, are you bypassing your router to the default gateway? | 12:11 |
| Kills | took me 15 mins | 12:11 |
| francois | erUSUL: hehe, that's just the commands I got from the web they all have count=0 | 12:12 |
| erUSUL | francois: also bs=1k is too low? | 12:12 |
| Angel_Tears | kept gicing me errors and getting stuck at the ubunto flashing logo | 12:12 |
| littlepenguin | angel wait for the reinstall nights because you messed somethings | 12:12 |
| dariusvw | Angel_T i just installed Ubuntu 9.10, i am new to. Worked well in 2 hours or so | 12:12 |

| francois | erUSUL: I'll try it with 1M | 12:12 |
| dariusvw | Curly_Q yes, cable direct from PC to Router | 12:12 |
| Angel_Tears | well,, i dont really have that fast internet connection,, and i live in the middle east | 12:12 |
| killaz_ | its so bizare ubuntu is so friendly user | 12:13 |
| Kills | is there anyway i can just disable my laptop internal sound speakers | 12:13 |
| Curly_Q | Darius if it worked two hours ago and does not work now, perhaps you check your RJ45 cables first. Layer 1 | 12:13 |
| Angel_Tears | i just needed the driver for my nVidia and my sound card | 12:13 |
| Angel_Tears | nVidia Gforce | 12:13 |
| erUSUL | francois: i would do dd if=/dev/zero of=/swap.img seek=8186760 bs=1M count=100 that should gow the image 100 MiB ( try with a copy first or with a trow away image file) | 12:14 |
| littlepenguin | the nvidia drivers need to be downloaded | 12:14 |
| killaz_ | angel look if ur drivers is available on the hardware website | 12:14 |
| killaz_ | hardware manifacture * | 12:14 |
| dariusvw | It worked from behind the proxy, and worked withought a gateway setting. Surley a direct connection needs the gateway setting? | 12:14 |
| Angel_Tears | i guess the nVidia is easy to find, but what about my sound card? | 12:14 |
| francois | erUSUL: thx I'll try that | 12:14 |

| Kills | wait Ill try | 12:15 |
| Kills | It wont work because the notepad doesnt have those letters i think | 12:16 |
| Kills | try using another program | 12:16 |
| Curly_Q | Dariusvw, If think what I think you are asking is that you are asking whether the default settings are either STATIC or DHCP i.e., Dynamic. In that case you need to set up a DYNAMIC setting rather than DHCP if your default gateway is either DHCP or DYNAMIC. | 12:16 |
| killaz_ | there is no driver for linux on the creative website | 12:17 |
| Angel_Tears | :( | 12:17 |
| t0rc | kubanc: use scribes or something so you can eliminate if its an issue with wine | 12:17 |

| IdleOne | a_h_roth: think the firefox-stable is 3.6 | 12:54 |
| frantz | is one that can help socket programming? | 12:54 |
| a_h_roth | IdleOne: that would explain it, although the web page at https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable insists that it's 3.6.3. | 12:55 |

| Dr_Willis | dnivra: you could always link one users /home/username to some other location. If one user needs extra space.. | 13:06 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, put hello.txt in a new directory, say "test", then do: svn import test/ file:///home/svn/myproject -m 'Initial import' | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | dnivra: thats a little easier then merging the 2 filesystms | 13:06 |
| IdleOne | moreia: don't force it. uninstall the package, remove the PPA from sources and reinstall the proper package | 13:06 |
| moreia | dnivra: do you know what is taking up all the space? | 13:06 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, correction: svn import test/ file:///home/svn/myproject/trunk -m 'Initial import' | 13:07 |
| dnivra | dnivra, yeah my own files and the configuration files of various apps. | 13:07 |

| avelldiroll | chripher, again re-read the last command i gave you ... svn import deals with directory ... not file | 13:08 |
| === Guest33934 is now known as sloopy | ||
| dnivra | Dr_Willis, there is only one user and I'd like to just integrate the /home with the main file system that's all. | 13:09 |
| dariusvw | Dr_willis you were right there was a typo. should the file have the 2 lines that i mentioned? | 13:09 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: svn import hello.txt file:///home/svn/myproject/test -m 'Initial import' gave me committed rev 1 | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | dnivra: make a /home on the main / filesystem.. start moving things over till you empty out the current home.. then reisze / with gparted.. is one way.. | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | dariusvw: yes. | 13:09 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: okay I guess then ? | 13:10 |
| cjay554 | -us-fl | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | dnivra: you could just make a 'storage' directory on /storage for the user to keep some of their stuff in. that would be easyer., | 13:10 |
| dnivra | Dr_Willis, there will be no issues with the mount point if I move /home? | 13:10 |
| dnivra | Dr_Willis, so used to /home :). | 13:10 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, try a checkout .. to see if you get hello.txt: svn co file:///home/svn/myproject | 13:10 |
| dariusvw | Dr_wills so if i am trying to use that file to set the ip info, do i delet those lines or leave them as is. As the website i got my info from does not mention those 2 lines? | 13:11 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: svn import test/ file:///home/svn/myproject -m 'Initial import' -> Committed revision 2. | 13:12 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: okay? | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | dnivra: you make one move data.. THEN move home over.. then remount it as /home | 13:13 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, do: svn co file:///home/svn/myproject | 13:13 |
| Dr_Willis | dnivra: you can have a /home/username AND a /home/username/storage thats pointing to /extrastorage | 13:13 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, test a checkout not an import again ... but you successfully commited to the svn so it's a good omen | 13:14 |
| dnivra | Dr_Willis, that last link idea's good enough for me. thanks! | 13:14 |

| avelldiroll | chripher, for webdav ... what steps did you do exactly ? (several ways are indicated in the guide) | 13:18 |
| cjay554 | well i myself don't think im quite confident that my videos are THAT good to be brought to the doc team, but ok, i'll refrain from "advertising" | 13:18 |

| chripher | avelldiroll: looks like I at the moment copy/pasted option number 1 | 13:21 |

| tarzeau | hawkal: make sure what you print is black and white? | 13:24 |
| cjay554 | Hawkal, that usually means your black cartridge is running out of ink so the printer attempts to make black ink by mixing dark colors | 13:24 |
| llutz | scunizi: nc == netcat | 13:24 |
| csaba | you need to download the source code and compile xchat, then you get a really powerful irc client | 13:24 |
| scunizi | CaptainTrek: nc is netcat.. I just man nc 'd.. it writes data across network connections | 13:24 |

| IdleOne | Kangarooo: yes | 13:39 |
| kmicic | Windows will see that? | 13:39 |
| bilalakhtar | kmicic: make it as your /home partition | 13:39 |
| erUSUL | adimit: i do not know the number but it shouldn't be hard to find in launchpad | 13:39 |
| csaba | bilalakhtar: if he makes a prtition with ext3 then windows won't see it | 13:39 |
| bilalakhtar | kmicic: and use ext2fsd to see it on windoze | 13:40 |
| Rigorm0rtis | bilalakhtar: I'm not sure how to do it. I clicked the taskbar and then did the control+a combo and then pressed the delete key and nothing happened. | 13:40 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, ... you should test it with correct condition ... and you have a static ip on your home network? | 13:40 |
| csaba | bilalakhtar: it won't work on windows 7, stop giving him bad advice | 13:40 |
| Kangarooo | thx erUSUL and IdleOne i found that this will make default sound settings so now im executing it | 13:40 |
| joncle | gotta run, got things to do, good luck all | 13:40 |
| csaba | kmicic: use fat32 or ntfs, not ext3 | 13:40 |
| ct529 | joncle: on my machine (8GB,NVIDIA quadro fx 1600 m), goes up to 32% (!!!!), but oscillates around a few %. It is noticeable. Memory footprint is now under control (the leak has probably been fixed in the last few updates.) | 13:40 |
| erUSUL | Kangarooo: that command only list files in the terminal | 13:40 |
| bilalakhtar | csaba: sorry didn't know he was using win7 | 13:40 |
| adimit | erUSUL, ok, thanks. | 13:41 |
| kmicic | you make me crazy... first you say to use ext3, second ext2 , fird fat32 | 13:41 |
| bilalakhtar | Rigorm0rtis: click the desktop and click control-a | 13:41 |
| llutz | SamuelPeterson: look at ssh -w to create a tunnel using the tun-device | 13:41 |
| kmicic | what shall i check | 13:41 |
| csaba | kmicic: use fat32 or ntfs... if you use ext2 or ext3, it will not work for windows 7 | 13:41 |
| === gnomefreak76 is now known as gnomefreak | ||
| bilalakhtar | kmicic: see fat32 or ntfs is preferable for such a case | 13:41 |

| chripher | avelldiroll: so I will try on the portal directly, hold on | 13:42 |
| kmicic | can you give me command to insall gpartet? | 13:42 |
| bilalakhtar | kmicic: sudo apt-get install gparted | 13:42 |
| Rigorm0rtis | bilalakhtar: Won't that delete all of my desktop icons? I am trying to get rid of all of these panel icons. | 13:43 |
| bilalakhtar | Rigorm0rtis: you dragged the messages on to the panel or desktop? | 13:43 |
| bilalakhtar | Rigorm0rtis: then it wont work | 13:43 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, you can also try to do that with a bridged vm on your own machine (if you got the horse power and the know-how) | 13:43 |

| bilalakhtar | Rigorm0rtis: so what is coming on the panel? | 13:44 |
| bilalakhtar | Rigorm0rtis: wait a minute I will drag a message on the panel and see for myself | 13:44 |
| Rigorm0rtis | Basically it seems I've gone and created hundreds of shortcuts to imap:// links on my panel. | 13:44 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: I do but, I will try to set it up on the portal then I will smash to flies in a smash | 13:44 |
| Rigorm0rtis | bilalakhtar: when I click one, I get an error message saying the "location is not supported" | 13:45 |
| bilalakhtar | Rigorm0rtis: wait a minute | 13:45 |
| bilalakhtar | Rigorm0rtis: the only solution would be to remove these icons one by one | 13:46 |

| Rigorm0rtis | bilalakhtar: Could there be something in gconf-editor that would let me edit my panel shotcuts? | 13:48 |
| erUSUL | !resetpanels | 13:48 |

| andai1 | Hi. What software to seek within a live XviD stream? | 13:50 |
| Oer | andai1 VLC | 13:50 |
| andai1 | Anything else? :P | 13:50 |
| Oer | why ? | 13:50 |
| Rigorm0rtis | erUSUL: Thank you very much sir. That fixed it right away. | 13:51 |
| erUSUL | Rigorm0rtis: no problem | 13:51 |
| Oer | sure there is a programm more than VLC | 13:51 |
| andai1 | cause VLC only plays about 5 seconds then stops | 13:51 |
| bilalakhtar | erUSUL: I didn't know that there is a message in ubottu for !resetpanels also | 13:51 |
| andai1 | I think something to do with the fact that video data is incrementally loaded so it's missing some stuff? | 13:51 |
| andai1 | and crashes? | 13:51 |
| andai1 | :P | 13:51 |

| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 13:57 |
| charlie_tr | the drivers coming with the setup by ubuntu? or we have to do by ourselves? | 13:57 |
| cybernout | when i run the command , sudo parted /dev/sda print >> info.txt wich gives me some text about the partition layout, how can i get a white space in the text? | 13:57 |

| cybernout | ah echo , okey thank you | 13:59 |
| erUSUL | cybernout: that will put a *newline* | 13:59 |
| cybernout | cool | 13:59 |
| erUSUL | but i just checked and the parted aoutput already ends with a newline ... | 14:00 |
| cybernout | does it matter if its >> or > ? | 14:01 |
| erUSUL | cybernout: if you use > it overwrittes the file and you loose all previous content | 14:01 |

| ionut | yes (no to print on the cd ) but ... u know (i write informations,pictures and then print it) sorry for my english | 14:05 |

| csaba | I need to install Firefox 3.0 on ubuntu 9.10 karmic, but the firefox-3.0 package is just a dummy link to firefox-3.5... if I download the firefox-3.0 package from hardy repository, it has a dependency problem with xulrunner... is there some website where I can just download firefox 3.0 from? | 14:42 |
| geekphreak | erUSUL: yep cutter giving some issues here too | 14:42 |
| ChogyDan | csaba: You probably could download the source and recompile it, but why do you need 3.0? | 14:43 |
| rdg | CaptainTrek: presumably. I'm an Ubuntu n00b but I'm not particularly dumb | 14:43 |
| csaba | I need to use the xforms addon which supports only 3.0 top | 14:43 |
| CaptainTrek | rdg: remove the package sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-bin and sun-java6-plugin (FYI: I'm on version 9.04 so it might be slightly different fer you) | 14:43 |
| csaba | maybe it would be easier to modify the addon... :) | 14:43 |
| ChogyDan | csaba: link? | 14:44 |
| CaptainTrek | rdg: then install packages sun-java5-bin and sun-java5-jre (and sun-java5-plugin if you want java 5 to work with firefox) | 14:44 |
| rdg | CaptainTrek: can I do it without removing java 6? I'd like to just be able to switch out %JAVA_HOME%when necesary | 14:44 |

| llutz | solotim: ls -l $(which app) | 14:45 |
| CaptainTrek | rdg: leave java6 installed and install sun-java5-bin and sun-java5-jre | 14:45 |
| CaptainTrek | should work then | 14:45 |

| isaac__ | Okay I'm back. In Windows, in advanced wireless settings, there is an option to "Automatically connect to non-preferred networks" Is this possible in Ubuntu, and if so, how? | 14:52 |
| Emptymag | I have a Macbook 7,1 and ubuntu doen't work for me either | 14:52 |

| Wes__ | So, is it true that the dash that ships with ubuntu is different than the dash that ships with debian? | 14:54 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | does ubuntu-restricted-extras package still include sun-java6-plugin? | 14:54 |
| Wes__ | (and has anybody else here found the debian channel excessively hostile?) | 14:55 |
| helo | it is their job to get you to leave if you're asking offtopic questions | 14:56 |
| ChogyDan | rafaelsoaresbr: apt-cache depends u-r-e | 14:56 |
| helo | they are not at all hostile if you ask a well reasoned question about debian proper | 14:56 |
| LzrdKing | if openbox started certain programs when i logged in with XDM, will it start those if i run startx instead? | 14:56 |
| arvind_khadri | Wes_, they aren't hostile, it would irk anybody if you ask a question #x in #y :) | 14:57 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | ChogyDan: thanks | 14:57 |
| Wes__ | arvind_khadri: I asked a boolean question and they demanded an explanation, then got hostile | 14:58 |
| Wes__ | arvind_khadri: Same problem exists on my ubuntu box as my debian box, too. *frustrating* | 14:58 |
| arvind_khadri | Wes_, what is the problem :) | 14:58 |
| Wes__ | So, anybody know how I can figure out reliably if /bin/sh is really dash? | 14:59 |
| arvind_khadri | I may not be able to help, but someone here will surely do | 14:59 |
| Wes__ | The best solution I've come up with is to parse stderr on a forced error, but that's more fragile than I'd like. | 14:59 |

| rawr | thank you | 15:03 |
| llutz | Wes__: more often than a real file | 15:03 |
| Pici | arvind_khadri: no, its symlinked to /bin/dash in Ubuntu | 15:03 |
| llutz | arvind_khadri: /bin/dash nowadays | 15:04 |
| arvind_khadri | Pici, yeah, sorry. | 15:04 |
| LzrdKing | dash? wierd | 15:04 |

| EvaLuaTe | for some unexplainable reasons the previous time I booted my laptop the date was set to 20.12.2010. So I ran ntpdate and corrected that but now when I started it again, it said it couldn't load the swap partition because the last mount time was in the future. The only way I could get in here was setting the year in my BIOS to 2011. Is there any way to skip this check and mount the partition regard | 15:06 |
| EvaLuaTe | less of the last mount time? | 15:06 |
| Wes__ | It's not a bad choice, actually makes it more likely scripts will port from platform to platform (bash has a lot of extra stuff, some borrowed from ksh, some novel) | 15:06 |
| elementttt | hi guys | 15:06 |

| epc | Hi folks, need help with a bash script. My script is exporting an environment variable (export VAR="value"), but after execution the value is lost. what could it be? | 15:21 |
| outer_space | when i hold down a key, it only does 1 char and stopped repeating, how do I fix that? | 15:22 |
| mistere | how do I check the partition of the current directory? thanks | 15:23 |
| ewook | mistere: check how? | 15:24 |
| mistere | using cmd line? | 15:24 |
| mistere | terminal | 15:24 |
| ewook | epc: it's a script that runs - it doesn't export it's var to the enviroment that triggered it I guess. | 15:24 |
| Klevi | outer_space, look in your keyboard preferences. Make sure that its set to actually repeat. (I'm no expert, just saying) | 15:25 |
| ewook | mistere: what is it that you wish to check more exactly? | 15:25 |
| mistere | ewook: what partition the directory I am in is on | 15:25 |
| llutz | mistere: df /dir | 15:25 |
| ewook | mistere: you can check you mounting-points. | 15:25 |
| ewook | or do what llutz said :) | 15:26 |
| epc | ewook: shouldn't the export VAR="value" permanently change the value of VAR in the running bash? | 15:26 |
| arloguthrie | i'm trying to configure PHP 5.3 with freetype 2 support on Ubuntu 9.10 but ./configure says that free type is not found | 15:27 |

| mohan_veena | epc | 15:28 |

| arloguthrie | how can i tell php where to find freetype, I'm looking in synaptic and i have libfreetype2 and libfreetype2-dev | 15:29 |
| ikonia | arloguthrie: it should be pre-configured in the package, you shoulnd't have to tell it unless you've manually rebuilt the packages | 15:30 |
| arloguthrie | ikonia, there is no PHP 5.3 for Ubuntu 9.10 that i can find | 15:31 |
| epc | mohan: i wrote a simple bash script to update two enviroment variables that are already setted by ~/.bashrc | 15:31 |
| arloguthrie | ikonia, so i'm compiling from source | 15:31 |
| ikonia | !info php | 15:31 |
| epc | mohan: the script is pretty simple. is just this: | 15:31 |
| epc | #!/bin/bash | 15:31 |
| epc | export EC2_CERT="some path" | 15:31 |
| mistere | is it possible to dd a partition and put the dd file somewhere in the same partition? | 15:31 |

| ubottu | php5 (source: php5): server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage). In component main, is optional. Version 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.4 (karmic), package size 1 kB, installed size 20 kB | 15:32 |
| ikonia | arloguthrie: why do you need 5.3 ? | 15:32 |
| ikonia | Pici: you're quicker then ubottu, nice | 15:32 |
| epc | mohan: when I run the script it changes the value during it's execution (verified by an echo) | 15:32 |
| epc | mohan: but after it's execution, I issue an echo EC2_CERT and the old value is shown. | 15:33 |
| frxstrem | is there a TTS (Text-to-speech) program for Ubuntu? | 15:33 |
| epc | mohan: I'm not terminating the bash console. I'm running the script by hand inside the console. shouldn't the value be preserved after the script execution? | 15:34 |
| Pici | frxstrem: both festival and espeak can do TTS. I don't know of a gui front-end to them though, although I haven't looked in a long time. | 15:34 |
| frxstrem | Pici: okay, where can I get those? | 15:34 |

| Dr_Willis | Roasted: theres so many themes out there.. and ppa's qith quality ones.. i dont bother making my own. | 16:20 |
| Roasted | Dr_Willis, well, I like Ambiance a LOT but I just wnated to make a minor tweak to it. | 16:21 |
| hiexpo | Dr_Willis, - whats happening | 16:21 |
| Roasted | Dr_Willis, Ive been through dozens and dozens of pages of themes on gnome-look. Ambiance nailed it dead on for me. I just have some things I'd like to tweak and see what happens. | 16:21 |
| Dr_Willis | I hate ambiance. :) I will stick with BlueCurve. | 16:21 |
| tomatto_ | how localize ubuntu? set locale to cs_CZ.ISO8859-2 ? | 16:22 |
| Roasted | Dr_Willis, I found ambiance was much nicer when I changed the background color. I changed it to whatever dust-sand uses and made the text jet black instead of the darkish gray. | 16:22 |
| Roasted | Dr_Willis, I definitely prefer it with the dust-sand color going on. | 16:22 |
| Dr_Willis | I like the nice big buttons i got now. :) with a red X, and easy to target squares.. but thats what themes are all about.. use what you like | 16:23 |
| Roasted | Dr_Willis, no doubt. Ihated ambiance at first, but I was a huge fan of dust-sand. Combined htem a bit and we have a winner. But like I said, I wanted to further tweak it a bi tmore to see what my mind can come up with. Problem is, I just had no clue where to get started. | 16:24 |

| AndyGraybeal | how do i get menubar items to show up in all user profiles? | 17:56 |
| geekphreak | droopalla: tried usermod command? | 17:56 |
| droopalla | ok, the /home/name/ is the same on both laptops need to change one of them, to somethign else | 17:56 |
| cet_ | Dr_Willis, how do I check? | 17:56 |

| Roasted | Hey guys - any idea how I can edit a theme moreso than what options are available under customize in the appearance settings? | 17:57 |
| droopalla | geekphreak: not sure what you are getting at there | 17:57 |
| oneirosFade | Roasted: The theme files? | 17:58 |
| Roasted | oneirosFade, well, how do I get started? what do I need? A certain program editor or something? | 17:58 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | oscar_: any output errors? | 17:58 |
| oscar_ | rafaelsoaresbr: it isnt there | 17:58 |
| oscar_ | nope | 17:58 |
| oscar_ | rafaelsoaresbr: is all fine | 17:58 |
| oneirosFade | Roasted: Well, the most basic way I'm familiar with is to just open up the theme files with a text editor and poke around | 17:59 |
| oneirosFade | I've not done it extensively myself | 17:59 |
| geekphreak | droopalla: hello | 17:59 |
| droopalla | geekphreak: hello? | 17:59 |
| geekphreak | droopalla: sudo usermod -l new_name old_name | 17:59 |
| oscar_ | rafaelsoaresbr: some idea :s?? | 17:59 |
| Roasted | oneirosFade, I wonder how I would do that with 10.04... because I cannot find ambiance, since its embedded in the system itself. It's not an added theme from .themes. | 18:00 |
| droopalla | geekphreak: oh ok, thank you. will that cause any problems? | 18:00 |
| geekphreak | droopalla: same way you can rename $HOME too | 18:00 |
| geekphreak | read on usermod command | 18:00 |
| oneirosFade | Roasted: The system-wide themes reside in /usr/share/themes, I believe -- just make a user copy before mucking about | 18:00 |

| halsafar | Stephan, windows will overwrite the MBR when you install it. Often best to install windows then linux for a dual boot environment. Just install windows, your mbr will be lost, download supergrub to easily get back to linux and reinstall grub. Done. | 18:11 |

| mickster04 | cmc2001: you men the titlebar? | 18:13 |
| vng | Is hibernate function of ubuntu the same as the one of windows? | 18:13 |
| KaiForce | ok, i think this is. i've added a second nic, removing the first, now the nic is identified as eth1 instead of eth0. how do I re-assign it to eth0? (no GUI) | 18:13 |

| vhann | KaiForce: Search Google, there's a file you need to modify | 18:14 |
| cmc2001 | mickster04: Well i know i can make something to make it hide. it is GNU and all that, but i really would like not to... | 18:14 |
| mickster04 | cmc2001: try compiz config, and undecorate the windows, use compiz-config-settings-manager | 18:14 |
| vng | oh..no | 18:15 |
| cmc2001 | mickster04: Ok. ill try. Thx :) | 18:15 |

| SiXke | Hi there | 18:16 |
| realcoolguy | Badger: you could always go grab the source for that version of PHP, and compile it that way. You'll have to meet any dependencies as well however. Usually what I end up doing when I need a specific version, both newer and older than what the repos have. | 18:16 |
| SiXke | Im new in linux, and im trying to copy a directory from an usb to the disk | 18:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Yo yo yo | 18:16 |
| SiXke | any1 can walk me trough it? | 18:16 |
| KaiForce | vhann - sipior: thanks for the lead, looks like a winner. | 18:17 |
| mickster04 | SiXke: right-click, copy? | 18:17 |
| CaptainTrek | SiXke: what mickster04 said | 18:17 |
| SiXke | commandline :) | 18:17 |
| vhann | SiXke: man cp | 18:17 |
| Badger | realcoolguy: hmm, that's the "long way" to go, I rather not do that - last resort thou | 18:17 |
| geekphreak | SiXke: sudo cp -fr /path/usb/disk/folder /home/name/folder | 18:17 |
| mickster04 | SiXke: cp | 18:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Sixke: is the usb partition mounted and can you see the folder? | 18:17 |
| CaptainTrek | ActionParsnip: he's using CLI | 18:17 |
| SiXke | where are programs installed by default? | 18:17 |
| SiXke | for example xbmc | 18:17 |
| Quicken2K | you need to have sudo in front for all operations? | 18:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Captaintrek: it still needs to be mounted, even with cli | 18:18 |
| SiXke | its mounted | 18:18 |
| realcoolguy | Badger: You may also find .deb packages, which are easier than compiling. | 18:18 |
| mickster04 | Quicken2K: no | 18:18 |
| SiXke | im trying to find out where to copy it to | 18:18 |
| jenia | hello everyone | 18:18 |
| vhann | SiXke: Whether you want the job done without knowing the inner workings: use the GUI. Or, you want to be more efficient: then learn to read manpages | 18:18 |
| geekphreak | ActionParsnip: not really/always | 18:18 |
| Badger | realcoolguy: any idea whee I should look for them? | 18:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Sixke: programs are installed all over, there isn't one folder they go to | 18:18 |
| Pici | SiXke: Packages are not installed to just one directory. What are you looking for? dpkg -L packagename can show you where files are installed to. | 18:18 |
| SiXke | i had some basic linux in school, but already forgot most of it | 18:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Geekphreak: to copy a folder from one block device to another both must be mounted | 18:19 |
| geekphreak | ActionParsnip: agreed sir | 18:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Sixke: cp -a /path/to/folder /path/to/destination | 18:19 |
| gothenburg | hmm | 18:19 |
| gothenburg | everything turned white | 18:19 |
| SiXke | ok, now just have to find out where the xbmc folder is | 18:19 |
| SiXke | dpkg tels me /usr/share | 18:20 |
| SiXke | i geuss thats not correct | 18:20 |
| mickster04 | SiXke: like we said, chances are you'll need to install stff over several folders | 18:20 |
| ActionParsnip | sixke: look in your xbmc config as to what folder the data needs to reside in. I believe you can config it using the gui | 18:20 |

| serggy | hi | 18:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Sixke: lib files will go in /usr/lib the binary will go in /usr/bin and several images may go in /usr/share/pixmaps. Linux employs a reusability idea so libs from one app can be used by many | 18:21 |
| Pici | mickster04: that actually will send a pm to the user that does the command. | 18:21 |

| ActionParsnip | Sixke: you can also use just * as it will cover all files, *.* isn't necessary | 18:28 |
| running_rabbit07 | Does IP Tables automatically keep logs or does it have to be commanded to do so? | 18:28 |
| taree | * by itself only modifies previus char | 18:28 |
| taree | so by itself it means nothing | 18:28 |

| mickster04 | SiXke: do an "ls" in the from folder | 18:30 |

| mickster04 | judgen: iwconfig not enough :P | 18:32 |
| geekphreak | tyler_d1: right? | 18:32 |

| taree | so, i was thinking before of the riobuntu project, anyone wants to join? | 18:35 |
| joaopinto | tyler_d1, nom s_client is a command name for openssl | 18:35 |
| geekphreak | tyler_d1: :) | 18:35 |
| mickster04 | SiXke: re -r /folder/or/file | 18:35 |
| joaopinto | tyler_d1, ssl_server_hostname is the server from the remote url, and you also need -port 443 | 18:35 |
| tyler_d1 | joaopinto: so if I get gethostbyname failure? | 18:35 |
| SiXke | nice | 18:35 |
| SiXke | thanks for irc :) | 18:35 |
| SiXke | thx guys | 18:36 |
| joaopinto | tyler_d1, that means you are providing an hostname which does not resolve, please remember that https:// is not part of the hostname | 18:36 |

| arvind_khadri | ActionParsnip, oh ok | 18:37 |

| geekphreak | right | 18:45 |

| bappy2 | if it's not yet released, why does the option show up in the update manger to upgrade to it ? | 18:47 |
| bappy2 | hmm, well i see the beta warning | 18:47 |
| zvacet | bappy2: :) | 18:47 |
| Pici | bappy2: Because you just supplied the '-d' argument, which says that you want to upgrade to the Development release. | 18:47 |

| bappy2 | that's odd, I'm on hardy LTS. How come upgrade manager without -d doesn't show options for the other newer releases ? | 18:49 |

| mean67 | so I noticed on the intel motherboards spec sheet that there is no mention of linux support , could that be the issue | 19:12 |
| mean67 | I am guessing not | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: i'd use xubuntu or ubuntu + lxde for lightness (more responsive system) | 19:12 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: Fame comes from others Individual Judgements, and People accept Ubuntu, since it is the best. Also, Ubuntu is the most user-friendly Linux for PCs. | 19:12 |
| Jordan_U | mean67: Linux support is almost never mentioned, intel hardware is usually well supported. | 19:12 |
| mean67 | I thought so | 19:13 |
| Jordan_U | !best | rocket16 | 19:13 |
| ubottu | rocket16: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: then by the same token, windows is a better OS than linux as more users use it. True? | 19:13 |
| milezteg_ | Q: Strange problem on a UBuntu dedicated web server. We're using Ruby to pull in a web page and do some parsing on it. We noticed the web page being pulled in was an old copy of the page. The issue is that if we grab the web page via either wget or even lynx we see an old copy of the page. Could anyone offer a suggestion as to what is causing this? | 19:13 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: Anything *buntu, whether Lubuntu, Kubuntu or Xubuntu is the best. | 19:13 |
| mean67 | so then the other issue that i see is that I am using SATA drives to boot from and I am guessing that should not be a issue as well | 19:13 |
| LzrdKing | when my laptop running boxee sleeps and then wakes up, the sound is gone and i need to restart boxee. anyone know why? | 19:14 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: The talk is related to Open-Source, but Windows is not. Also, many people used Windows, but they are switching to Ubuntu now. And it is Ubuntu who challenged Microsoft in a bold way. | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: best is a comparison of needs compared to what the product can do. If you want to play the latest games without issue then ubuntu is a poor choice. There is no best | 19:14 |
| Jordan_U | milezteg_: What web page? Their server may use user agent detection and present chached pages to bots. | 19:14 |
| crimsun | LzrdKing: could be because of a broken patch I made; can you use http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh, please? | 19:15 |

| Urda | cristi_: checkout deboprhan, see if you have orphaned packages | 19:16 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: Ubuntu JeOS can do the same. | 19:16 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: Lubuntu is also nicer than Puppy in many ways. | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: exactly, so if the system suits puppy better than ubuntu then puppy is "best" in that situation | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: ubuntu is not always the solution | 19:17 |
| mean67 | just cant figure out why it does not see the OS after I install it | 19:17 |
| LordKow | i think if you use the debian installer you can get a really trimmed down ubuntu install | 19:17 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: In the modern world, People who are in Computing, should upgrade their Systems. And for low-end systems, any Linux with low DE can do. Why only Puppy? DSL can do the same, and Lubuntu too. | 19:18 |
| zvacet | cristi_ type in terminal df and paste it here with http://ubuntu.pastebin.com | 19:18 |
| LordKow | at least with debian you can disable X altogether. | 19:18 |
| LzrdKing | crimsun: what does "powersave" with modprobe do? | 19:18 |
| LzrdKing | err power_save | 19:18 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: The "best" is counted as a basis on "How many fields a thing is better than others", and Ubuntu is much better in most cases. So, it is the Best. | 19:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: why should I upgrade, my low end stuff performs what I need excellently so I have no interest of upgrading. Just because I can't run a big bloated de+wm doesn't mean I have to upgrade | 19:19 |
| crimsun | LzrdKing: depends on the value you pass to it. | 19:19 |
| gdb | rocket16: That's your opinion, you're welcome to it. :-) (Just accept that it's wrong.) ;-) | 19:19 |
| zvacet | rocket16 : I don´t know can you run lubuntu with 64Gb of ram | 19:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: yes but you missed the situation, yes ubuntu is good but it has some situations it just doesn't fit | 19:19 |
| crimsun | zvacet: 64 *GB* ? | 19:20 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: Check out the Ubuntu Synaptic, and you can get anything like that, low-end system maintainance and so. So, LXDE can be used in Ubuntu, and so can be ICEWM, so Ubuntu can perform much better than Puppy. | 19:20 |
| zvacet | crimsun : lapuss calami | 19:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: ii'm part of the lubuntu team dude ;) | 19:20 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: Also, where is the package manager for Puppy? Nowhere, Ubuntu has strongest support, because check the supports of both. | 19:21 |
| zvacet | rocket16 : you found wrong man to argue with ;) | 19:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: puppy is designed with lowlevel in mind and its kernel reflects that the generic kernel of ubuntu is quite large | 19:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: there is a package manager for puppy | 19:22 |

| g0r3_0f_g0d | tripelb, it comes up as a first entry on google when you type ubuntu + guide | 20:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | manohar, you just need them to create the CD then delete them (safe the mp3s obviously) | 20:20 |

If it's the latter, just burn the data disc, and you can fit several hours on, if it's the former you'll need a program to properly author a standard music/audio cd. | 20:24 |

| manohar | i have ubuntu 8.04LTS running. i want to install 10.04LTS after its release. My PC confuguration is 845 motherboard, 32bit Intel P4 2.4GHz, 512 RAM, no external graphics card(in-built present). Can i install 10.04. I had problem installing 8.10 before. So installed 8.04 back. | 21:00 |
| brindlem | jbwiv: then you should create a repository group and assign those that need access to that group i.e. usermod -a -G repository user | 21:00 |
| jbwiv | g0r3_0f_g0d, this is the proper solution: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setuid#setgid_on_directories | 21:01 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | brilliant , i knew it doesn't make sense what i was saying | 21:02 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | :) | 21:02 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | this is the right trick | 21:02 |
| guntbert | bubulein: I suggest you ask in #ubuntu-de -- might be easier to talk there | 21:03 |
| demifuror | can anyone tell me how to stream tv to my linux box? | 21:05 |

| barbarella | demifuror:vlc is an easy way to do it | 21:06 |
| demifuror | can i get espn on it? | 21:06 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | demifuror, you talking about streaming from internet right? | 21:06 |
| captaintrav | any ideas how to troubleshoot system hanging with GL screensavers ? I don't see anything in syslog or Xorg.0.log and the system freezes with both monitors black | 21:06 |
| demifuror | g0r3_0f_g0d: yes man, streaming from the net | 21:07 |
| demifuror | are there any good tutorials on ti? | 21:07 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | if so you can find some mms type streams and play them with either mplayer or vlc | 21:07 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | to stream internet stream fire up mplayer http://some.address.com/stream | 21:08 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | but the sites providing streams are hard to come by these days , the free ones | 21:08 |

| TKtiddle | hi I have 2 disks, When i installed i chose to make the 1st disk the / partition and the 2nd disk the /home partition. However my 1 disk has filled up really quick, the /home dir dosn't seem to be a symbolic link and there seems to be data in the /home dir of disk 1 | 21:12 |
| bubulein | gunbert sorry misst the language. i prefer english | 21:12 |
| boabsta | TKtiddle: what does "df -h" show? | 21:12 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | alex__c2022, the man zip command has the answer youre looking for | 21:12 |
| manohar | i have ubuntu 8.04LTS running. i want to install 10.04LTS after its release. My PC confuguration is 845 motherboard, 32bit Intel P4 2.4GHz, 512 RAM, no external graphics card(in-built present). Can i install 10.04. I had problem installing 8.10 before. So installed 8.04 back. | 21:13 |
| guntbert | bubulein: no problem - you are perfectly welcome here :-) | 21:13 |
| alex__c2022 | g0r3_0f_g0d: I looked there, based on read the man page there seems to be no way to do it | 21:13 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | alex__c2022, i'd repack the lot in one directory with -r option by looking at the man | 21:13 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | make structure i want to achieve first and then pack like zip -r foo.zip . | 21:14 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | or something | 21:14 |
| sab | barbarella, if i want to install skype from cli,then how to do that? | 21:14 |
| boabsta | manohar: i'd reccomend getting another 1G RAM or installing the server version with a lightweight desktop | 21:14 |
| barbarella | manohar:what was the problem with 8.10? | 21:14 |
| alex__c2022 | g0r3_0f_g0d: yea, i figured that would be the only option | 21:15 |
| amosek | sab: sudo apt-get install skype | 21:15 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | alex__c2022, yeah seems like it , don't think there's much point wasting time trying to become zip command line guru :) | 21:15 |
| TKtiddle | boabsta: dev/sda1 mounted on / use 100%; dev/sdb1 mounted on /home use 5% | 21:16 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | but i'm not sure if xarchiver coldn't do the job for you , like open up the zip and try to mane new directory in it | 21:16 |
| manohar | barbarella: after installing 8.10 i was not able to login after entering username and password. My keyboard freezed and monitor went blank. | 21:16 |
| boabsta | manohar: i've tried running a desktop with 512MB (think it was 8.10) and it ran like a complete dog | 21:16 |
| sab | amosek, i was trying to install skype from cli and got this error...http://paste.ubuntu.com/419446/ | 21:16 |

| amosek | sab: if medibuntu is down then you can always download .deb from skype.com and use dpkg -i | 21:18 |
| bubulein | boabsta, pardon? | 21:18 |
| boabsta | bubulein: still using unix ;) | 21:18 |

| kanzie | anyone here familiar with Filezilla error: "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server". | 21:19 |
| LucidGuy | Correct me if Im wrong but simply outputing text via "&> filename" will cause all stderr and stdout to goto filename? | 21:19 |
| sab | amosek, i m new in linux dont even know what is medibuntu,tell me how to install | 21:19 |
| bubulein | boabsta, unix == solaris == bsd | 21:19 |
| boabsta | bubulein: i agree :) | 21:19 |
| sab | guntbert, 10.04 | 21:19 |

| venom | I need yo know how to run fbsplash on ubuntu 9.04 | 21:21 |

| bubulein | guntbert, no urgent - but i regonize it | 21:22 |

| kanzie | "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server". <- filezilla... anyone knows? Other FTP-software works for the same connection, but not filezilla... tried on both the ubuntu and osx | 21:23 |
| bubulein | boabsta, yeah. checked the sttings. afail its a driver issue | 21:23 |
| spilak | it is not in my repository | 21:23 |
| guntbert | bubulein: no earnest sound experience here :-) | 21:23 |
| h00ver | i've got an eee701 too | 21:23 |
| venom | thanx anyway I'll try somewhere else | 21:23 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | kanzie, wierd stuff , evey other ftp client works but filezilla? | 21:24 |
| TKtiddle | mines a 900 someone was chucking works good with notebook remix | 21:24 |
| kanzie | yep | 21:24 |
| boabsta | bubulein: raaaarg sound issues on Linux - raaaarg!! i'm afraid google and throwing objects off walls may be your best bet | 21:24 |
| dewman | does anyone know the status of packages.medibuntu.com? | 21:24 |
| realcoolguy | I guess I should ask [since someone else brought up the topic of audio], but has the pulseaudio issues been worked out on Ubuntu? (I still find an application not able to use sound, and I end up doing a killall pulseaudio, then relaunching the app, then sound works fine). | 21:24 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: its so weird... on osx Im running Transmit and Filezilla... Transmit is connecting fine, filezilla get "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server". | 21:24 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | kanzie , on the same box ? i mean from the same box | 21:24 |
| bubulein | Let Me Explain: i was listen to my music on FreeBSD Cli via nfs/cifs/sshfs an it sound better then on linux. currently i had a bbq an need some more power on my headphones. so i regonize it | 21:24 |
| dbernar1 | I'm trying to set up samba as a domain controller. I was following https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/samba-dc.html and my windows client can not see my server. | 21:24 |
| kanzie | starting it on my ubuntu (where I want it to run) I get the very same "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server". | 21:24 |
| stopsign | anyone tryed edubuntu with your kids? | 21:24 |
| h00ver | i can't find eeecontrol 0.2 for mine nowhere | 21:25 |
| dbernar1 | Well, my client can not see my PDC. | 21:25 |
| dbernar1 | My domain | 21:25 |
| ech0HTPC | :( for some reason i can't drag any windows over to the next desktop | 21:25 |
| boabsta | bubulein: so you do get sound on linux - just not loud enough? | 21:25 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: so on the osx one ftp app works, not filezilla, on the ubuntu I have same issues | 21:25 |
| * bubulein think that the linux soundsystem is ... strange | 21:25 | |
| bubulein | boabsta, yes | 21:25 |
| h00ver | it's really wierd yea | 21:26 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | kanzie, is the filezilla somehow using passive mode or port set wrong? | 21:26 |
| boabsta | bubulein: sorry, sounds weird - if your volume levels are turned up max in alsamixer (or whatever) then i'm stuck | 21:26 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: the only thing I can think of is that it dont support ports >60000, this ftp Im trying to connect to is running on 61305 | 21:26 |
| bubulein | boabsta, do u have a tip for me, a link or just a suggestion to help my self? | 21:26 |
| bubulein | boabsta, let me change the box, and verify my settings | 21:27 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: trying FOFF now | 21:27 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | kanzie once you run it you can check if it actually reaches the prot by checking netsta -an from the other terminal , other than that it's a filezilla bug or support issue provided the other clients connect fine , like gftp | 21:27 |
| bubulein | boabsta, someone interrested inmy resoults or should i keep silent and life withe it? | 21:27 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | the port seems unusual for a ftp server really | 21:28 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: it responds to fast to be a already established connection,I get the feeling it does not even set up a thread | 21:28 |
| oem | built this comp, installed a cdRW/dvd rom and tested it by playing an audio file from CD and placed a DVD into drive and viewed contents... this is standared and usely is suficiant.. but when i got the comp home and tried to play a DVD... got the error "Cannot mount volume. Unable to mount the volume 'ANGELS_AND_DEMONS'." under more info it said "mount: block device is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fstype, bad option, bad superblock on | 21:29 |
| oem | /dev/scd0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error" | 21:29 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | you can see that kanzie with netstat -an while you try to connect , so like netstat -an | grep 61305 | 21:29 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: checking | 21:29 |
| venom | anyone know how to install fbsplash ?! plz | 21:29 |

| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: nono, you dont understand, from the moment I press connect to the time I have the errormessage (and every debug-log message) 0.00000002 seconds pass | 21:31 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: there is no chance in hell I would be able to get to the terminal window and run a command | 21:32 |
| kanzie | g0r3_0f_g0d: hence I don't think it even gets beyond the app | 21:32 |
| amosek | kanzie: have you measured that? ;) | 21:32 |
| alexandro | iai pessoal | 21:32 |
| alexandro | blz | 21:32 |
| kanzie | but I tried FOFF now and it get "Could not connect to server" at about the same speed so it seems to be on OS level, strangely I get this error on OSX in Filezilla but not in Transmit | 21:33 |
| kanzie | amosek: indeed... I have a watch and counted seconds ;-) | 21:33 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | kanzie, ok , if you really what to know let's dig deep , run it , in the other terminal run strace `ps -ef | grep filezilla | awk '{print $1}'` | 21:33 |
| CrOnOs__ | Luther i will install grub on sdb | 21:33 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | that will give you the binary output of that is really going on | 21:34 |
| g0r3_0f_g0d | with that open up the bug in filezilla bugtraq | 21:34 |

| ubottu | 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 | 21:44 |

| mr_fribble | Is it safe to upgrade in the root account? | 21:44 |
| LzrdKing | oops, i killed my sound AND knocked the box off the network | 21:44 |
| LzrdKing | mr_fribble: you have to be root to upgrade | 21:45 |
| boabsta | mr_fribble: it is advised to not have a root login and use sudo instead | 21:45 |
| mr_fribble | I ask because after I upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04 it got corrupted? | 21:45 |
| kanzie | g0nz0|Boston: hmm, cant get strace to run your line | 21:45 |

| nemo | Does anyone here happen to know of an up-to-date walkthrough on getting vnc4server to work? | 21:47 |
| nemo | my attempts at using the ones on forum and bug reports have been less than successful | 21:47 |
| Jordan_U | nemo: Just use vino, it's built in and dead simple to enable. | 21:47 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: useless for headless | 21:47 |
| kanzie | g0nz0|Boston: might need -p with the trace | 21:47 |
| Jordan_U | nemo: Ahh. | 21:47 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: xtightvnc's server works btw. | 21:47 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: but I wanted to get things working w/ xinetd | 21:47 |
| nemo | so I don't have to ssh in first to start it up | 21:47 |
| Luther | How do you change the DNS address for a network? | 21:48 |
| yablonda | psmbfuer, what is happening? | 21:48 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: remmina and XDMCP also work - although insecure. unfortunately ubuntu doesn't package xqproxy yet | 21:48 |
| tomatto_ | how to do liveusb from livecd kubuntu? | 21:49 |
| nemo | and of course all of these have issues w/ authentication now, something gnome seems determined to break for ssh -Y/XDMCP/vnc | 21:49 |
| nemo | presumably related to how X is being started for those *shrug* | 21:49 |
| needhelp | :) | 21:49 |
| Luther | whoops | 21:49 |
| znxtch | Okay last question, I played with advanced Compiz effects. I got in over my head backed out and deleted the package. Now when I minize windows they still do the crazy "wiggly minize" effect. Does anyone know how I can return the system to its default display effects settings? | 21:50 |
| Jordan_U | nemo: You should use ssh -X instead of -Y so that X11 traffic is encrypted also. | 21:50 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: uh.... | 21:50 |
| Luther | How do you change the DNS for a network? | 21:50 |
| boabsta | Luther: check /etc/resolv.conf | 21:50 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: the X11 traffic is encrypted w/ both | 21:50 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: is just trusted vs non | 21:50 |

| RikFshr | Hell-O everyone | 21:51 |
| RikFshr | OK here's my boot issue | 21:51 |
| RikFshr | Win 7 and Ubuntu 9.10 on a single drive | 21:51 |
| RikFshr | I was able to boot both then lost Ubuntu | 21:51 |
| RikFshr | Ran Super Grub .9799 and now can only boot Ubuntu | 21:51 |
| FloodBot4 | RikFshr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:51 |
| RikFshr | I used Super Grub to boot into Winerz but Sudo update-grub doesn't find the winderz install | 21:51 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: ssh -Y is needed also for a ton of gnome apps. | 21:51 |
| bubulein | needhelp, can u explain that | 21:51 |
| psmbfuer | znxtch, so you have simple compizconfig settings manager installed. | 21:51 |
| nemo | still useless for things like gdmsetup or account management or basically anything that uses the new auth kit | 21:51 |
| soreau | znxtch: ccsm>Preferences>Reset to Defaults | 21:51 |
| psmbfuer | is so, go to the Effects tab and uncheck "Enable Wobbly" | 21:52 |
| needhelp | bubulein, the pendrive is fine, it's a kingston and it's ntfs formatted. ubuntu did auto mount it before but all the sudent it stopped working. how can i fix this | 21:52 |
| soreau | znxtch: Also if you select Normal or Extra in the visual effects menu, it will use a predefined set of effects | 21:52 |
| boabsta | Luther: are u changing from DHCP to static? | 21:52 |
| znxtch | i tried that | 21:52 |
| znxtch | didnt work | 21:52 |
| Luther | boabsta: not sure, not really a power-user, just trying to change DNS to 8.8.8.8 (Google DNS) | 21:53 |
| bubulein | needhelp, are u familar with the cli? | 21:53 |
| soreau | ! work | znxtch | 21:53 |
| ubottu | znxtch: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 21:53 |
| needhelp | terminal? | 21:53 |
| geoff_ | Hi. I have recently upgraded to Karmic on a desktop. Three times now the system wont resume after idling. | 21:53 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: settled on manually starting xtightvnc server for now, and also using xqproxy/remina/XDMCP combo | 21:53 |
| needhelp | bubulein, terminal? | 21:53 |
| boabsta | needhelp: its pointless having NTFS for a USB stick - go with fat32 instead | 21:53 |
| Micheal` | is there a good way to be able to read and/or format a cisco flash ram card in 91.0? | 21:53 |
| RikFshr | Hello everyone | 21:53 |
| Micheal` | 9.10** | 21:53 |
| boabsta | Luther: not familiar with 8.8.8.8 - where did you get that from? | 21:54 |
| needhelp | not for me because i put movies in there with more than 4gb. | 21:54 |
| RikFshr | I have question about dual boot problem | 21:54 |
| needhelp | but the format is not the problem.. it's a ubuntu problem | 21:54 |
| Luther | boabsta: It's Google's Public DNS | 21:54 |
| znxtch | I seletced normal in the appearance settings. everything is back to normal but the windows still use an efect when minimizing that isnt the default | 21:54 |
| RikFshr | Win 7 and Ubuntu 9.10 on single drive | 21:54 |
| nemo | Jordan_U: BTW. gnome also screws up keymaps w/ xtightvnc, so is necessary to set XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1 | 21:54 |
| geoff_ | I have seen on the forums this happening with laptops. Any ideas about desktops? | 21:54 |
| POVaddct | needhelp: ntfs can only be mounted by ntfs-3g if it is in a clean state. check the pendrive from windows with "correct errors automatically"-box checked. remember, ntfs is not the native linux filesystem and not well documented. | 21:54 |
| bubulein | needhelp, see privat chat | 21:54 |
| needhelp | yes | 21:54 |
| bmorris | Hey everybody, I was able t set up a SOCKS proxy with ssh -D but I can't get it to work with SSL traffic. Is there something special that I need to do for that? | 21:55 |
| RikFshr | Used Super Grub 0.9799 to fix Ubuntu boot problem and now Grub won't boot Windoze 7 | 21:55 |
| boabsta | Luther: k, didnt know that, not sure if you are using DHCP but you can change to use static internal IPs easily - see http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html for a quick/easy guide | 21:55 |
| boabsta | Luther: just backup files before editing ;) | 21:56 |
| BluesKaj | RikFshr, did you do , sudo update-grub afterwards | 21:56 |
| RikFshr | Any easy solution to restore windoze 7 to Grub boot options? | 21:56 |
| RikFshr | BluesKaj yes I did | 21:56 |
| Luther | Let's see if this install worked.... | 21:57 |
| techieBrandon | Anyone a Xserver pro??? | 21:57 |
| techieBrandon | I've got a stumper with my display resolution. Probably easy for someone experienced... | 21:58 |
| nemo | oh well. one last try. vnc4server - anyone here managed to get it working in karmic? | 21:58 |
| BluesKaj | RikFshr, i have to state the obvious, but sometimes the windows option becomes hidden at the bottom when there are too many old kernels filling up the the boot menu | 21:58 |
| Grafter | built this comp with ubuntu 8.04.2, installed a cdRW/dvd rom and tested it by playing an audio file from CD and placed a DVD into drive and viewed contents... this is standard and usely is suficiant.. but when i got the comp home and tried to play a DVD... got the error: "Cannot mount volume. Unable to mount the volume 'video_name'." under more info it said "mount: block device is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fstype, bad option, bad | 21:58 |
| Grafter | superblock on /dev/scd0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error" did "dmesg | tail" and got: [ 2105.580190] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dddacf18] 'on' searched forums and google.. found same question but for external drives.. no answers... and mine is internal, anyone have any ideas? i am strapped :/ | 21:58 |

| boabsta | Lenin_Cat: doesnt sound like a HD issue, does sound serious tho, have you ran a memory checker? | 22:18 |
| brummbaer | techieBrandon, you should be able to add it to the list of modules to load | 22:18 |
| h00k | git__: It is using http, it just doesn't show you that part of the URL. nothing changes as far as functionality | 22:18 |

| Klevi | git__, its not there? if its not it shouldnt matter, you'll stil be able to display pages. Chromes probably just hiding it | 22:18 |

| KB1JWQ | git__: Define messe dup. | 22:20 |
| exigraff | git__: one of the underpinning concepts behind chrome/chromium is to keep things clean. you don't need to see the 'http://' bit, so it's hidden. | 22:20 |
| boabsta | Lenin_Cat: where does it say its your HD cache mem? | 22:20 |

| Lenin_Cat | I get less segment faults with less cached memory | 22:22 |

| Ahmed\ | Yeah i am, plus i have 2/3 firewalls and i dont even know how to use those (new user) so | 22:23 |
| boabsta | Lenin_Cat: if your memory is damaged you will spend eternity disabling stuf to try and sort it - just get good memory | 22:23 |
| Lenin_Cat | look | 22:23 |
| Lenin_Cat | when I have less cached memory I get less segment faults | 22:23 |
| === Guest34998 is now known as liveusb-how | ||
| Lenin_Cat | so just tell me how to disable it. -_- | 22:23 |
| KB1JWQ | Lenin_Cat: Fix your dodgy RAM? :-) | 22:23 |
| Lenin_Cat | it works when im on windows, I disable the memory cache and I never get memory related crashes | 22:23 |
| boabsta | if memtest is saying your RAM is bad then try un-plugging your RAM from the mother board that should sort it | 22:24 |
| Consul_Falx | boabsta: | 22:24 |
| halsafar | lol Lenin ram is cheap, go fix ur computer | 22:24 |
| Lenin_Cat | boabsta, because I know this works | 22:24 |
| Klevi | Correct me if im wrong, but won't disableing the ability for cacheing to the RAM increase traffic to the HD, slowing your system down? | 22:24 |
| Consul_Falx | I somehow don't get any opinion to format the drive | 22:24 |
| KB1JWQ | Expecting software to compensate for crappy hardware is fallacious. | 22:24 |
| Jaymac | guys, if anyone knows how to help him with his problem then it might be useful to tell him as opposed to harping on at him to buy new ram :) | 22:24 |
| Lenin_Cat | I could care less, because I would get less segment faults | 22:24 |
| Venker | hi people | 22:24 |
| h00k | Lenin_Cat: I don't think you can disable caching, as seen here: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ | 22:25 |
| boabsta | Lenin_Cat: did memtest say your memory is bad? | 22:25 |
| Lenin_Cat | yes | 22:25 |
| KB1JWQ | Lenin_Cat: What you want requires either a module or a rewrite of kernel code. | 22:25 |
| git__ | i'm going back to Firefox | 22:26 |
| boabsta | Lenin_Cat: get new memory then otherwise you are screwed - your PC cant do jack without RAM to work with - gawd knows why Windows worls better with mad RAM - in my experience Windows dies as soon as any bit of it goes bad | 22:26 |
| Grafter | techieBrandon: did that help? | 22:26 |
| jack__ | thanks for the notification boabsta :P | 22:26 |

| Klevi | I get to the loading screen, and then i get something about network not initializing | 22:31 |
| Klevi | hangs after that | 22:31 |
| Consul_Falx | okay, it works now, it was just unintentionally mounted before | 22:33 |
| boabsta | Consul_Falx: onceyou have created/deleted partitions type "w" to save the partitions to your disk then type "mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/sdb1" | 22:33 |

| Grafter | DVD problem | 22:36 |
| Grafter | one sec | 22:36 |
| boabsta | Grafter: is this 10.4? | 22:36 |
| Grafter | built this comp with ubuntu 8.04.2, installed a cdRW/dvd rom and tested it by playing an audio file from CD and placed a DVD into drive and viewed contents... this is standard and usely is suficiant.. but when i got the comp home and tried to play a DVD... got the error: "Cannot mount volume. Unable to mount the volume 'video_name'." under more info it said "mount: block device is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fstype, bad option, bad | 22:36 |
| Grafter | superblock on /dev/scd0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error" did "dmesg | tail" and got: [ 2105.580190] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dddacf18] 'on' searched forums and google.. found same question but for external drives.. no answers... and mine is internal, anyone have any ideas? i am strapped :/ | 22:36 |
| Consul_Falx | boabsta: succeeded. yet I'd like to set up the volume's name if possible | 22:36 |
| boabsta | Consul_Falx: fdisk will do that, 2 secs | 22:37 |
| Grafter | boabsta: 8.04 | 22:37 |
| Consul_Falx | how? | 22:37 |
| boabsta | Consul_Falx: hmm im not sure - dont usually bother with labels. m for help :) | 22:39 |
| boabsta | or go back to qparted | 22:39 |
| Klevi | how would i get grub to boot into safe gfx mode? | 22:39 |
| boabsta | Consul_Falx: what do you mean by "label" exactly just to be sure? | 22:39 |
| boabsta | Consul_Falx: *name even | 22:40 |
| pmitros | I want to compare two directory trees. I know that if the filenames match, the files are identical. Is there a way to do that? I don't want diff, since it'll compare the files, and the files are many MB each, and the trees are tens of GBs total, so it'll be slow. | 22:40 |
| puff | Hm, okay, sorted out why the new 500 GB drive wasn't show up. | 22:40 |
| puff | the USB hub wasn't working,s imple mechanical failure. | 22:40 |
| puff | So... now I have it showing up in fdiskb ut not automounted, I highly suspect it's unformatted. | 22:40 |
| Consul_Falx | boabsta: the name :) my flash disk is labeled vladuj-data and hence it's defaultly mounted into /media/vladuj-data/ | 22:41 |
| Klevi | nevermind, forcing it to boot with vga=800x600x32 works to get it to boot | 22:41 |
| Klevi | but i still have that networking error | 22:41 |
| Consul_Falx | this mounts after UUID, since I didn't know how to set up the label via gparted | 22:41 |
| === Klevi is now known as Klevi|afk | ||
| boabsta | Consul_Falx: mounts after UUID? not sure what you mean, specifying UUID in fstab doesnt work? | 22:43 |
| desdaja | How can I get the subwoofer of my Teufel 5.1 speaker system working in Ubuntu 9.10? Soundcard is an audigy 2 zs. The regular surround sound works, just not the sub. Thanks. | 22:44 |
| puff | Okay, so "sudo fdisk -l" says this 500GB disk has no partition table; gparted (which lists it as 465GB) says it is "unallocated". | 22:44 |
| perhamlinux | hi. is there a way to upgrade and install some packages using apt at the same time? I mean, do a apt-get upgrade and apt-get install [some_packages] with a single command (and not using &&) | 22:44 |
| boabsta | puff: u need to partition the drive then format each partition | 22:44 |
| puff | Anything else I can do to make sure there's nothing on it, before I partition it? | 22:44 |
| Consul_Falx | yes. i just run the format and the disk is now prepared and identified by UUID | 22:44 |
| boabsta | puff: unless you have funky software - if there are no partitions on it then consider it blank :) | 22:45 |
| boabsta | Consul_Falx: do you know the UUID? | 22:45 |
| Consul_Falx | i think I even managed to relabel it | 22:45 |

| borges | i use nvidia driver version 185'. my card is geforce 8400gs and i use ubuntu 9.10. my screen is a 17" and my high resolution on ubuntu and other distros is 1158x864 but i want 1280x960. i cant write on xorg any configuration from the NVIDIA X Server settings even as root, allways i restart my pc my resolution goes to 1024x768. need help | 22:53 |
| puff | KB1JWQ, perhamlinux, mainly I'm thinking about two things. 1) what is best for backing up, obviously ext3 is what I have now so ext3 is the simplest choice, 2) I'd like to be able to sneakernet bulk data to other machines,including windows and macs. So, I guess ntfs, but would that cause any problems in doing backups? | 22:53 |
| perhamlinux | puff: there is a system driver for reading ext3 filesystems on windows. google ext2ifs | 22:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | puff, you will love the linux permissions on files when copying to ntfs - but if that's not an issue, it *should* be fine. | 22:54 |

| ZykoticK9 | puff, s/love/lose | 22:54 |

| ZykoticK9 | _20eric06_, yes we read you | 23:13 |
| _20eric06_ | Oh okay, good | 23:13 |
| MK13 | msaadn, did you run w/ sudo ? | 23:13 |
| _20eric06_ | <_20eric06_> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/3zcKDUXv Could anyone please take a look at this? | 23:13 |

| MK13 | _20eric06_, are you trying to install an easycap by any chance? | 23:15 |
| _20eric06_ | MK13, yes | 23:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | _20eric06_, the problem is you don't have ctags (i have no idea what that is though, and "apt-cache search ctags" has several options, i have no idea which one is correct though), good luck. | 23:15 |
| yaaar | MK13: ok, thanks i'll give that a shot | 23:17 |
| MK13 | _20eric06_, i am looking for how I installed my easycap... one sec | 23:17 |
| Losha | ZykoticK9: ctags used to be an app which built a database of function_names/file & line numbers for C programs so you could find your way around C programs easily in editors like vim and emacs. Dunno if it's the *same* ctags as you're talking about... | 23:18 |

| tenochslb | perhamlinux: i do not know | 23:28 |
| perhamlinux | Yoshario: try synaptic | 23:28 |
| gcleric | Yoshario: apt-get remove | 23:28 |
| MK13 | Yoshario, 'sudo apt-get purge [program name]' | 23:28 |
| perhamlinux | tenochslb: if it's a dell laptop, try pressing Fn+F2 and see if anything happens | 23:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | Yoshario, the above suggestions do NOT apply to things you have installed using "make install" | 23:28 |
| MK13 | tenochslb, does 'sudo iwlist eth0 scan' give any errors such as device not ready/up, etc? | 23:29 |
| mcrawfor | hey can I get a gnome toolbar widget that does load monitoring of a different machine? | 23:29 |
| logix_ | hi friends | 23:29 |
| tenochslb | perhamlinux: it is a hp and there is a button to allow wireless but nothing happens when i turn it on or off | 23:29 |
| mcrawfor | the little builtin load monitor is perfect, I just want that info for my dev server too | 23:29 |
| === logix_ is now known as logix_caster | ||
| _20eric06_ | MK13, this seems to have worked, thank you. | 23:30 |
| tenochslb | MK13: it says it does not supports scanning | 23:30 |
| MK13 | tenochslb, press the wireless button again and see if that does anything | 23:31 |
| MK13 | tenochslb, running the command after pressing the button that is :) | 23:32 |
| gcleric | mcrawfor: how about gkrellm on the workstation and gkrellmd on the server? | 23:32 |
| MK13 | _20eric06_, no prob the easycap bugged me for a long time | 23:32 |
| tenochslb | MK13, it is not even allowing me to check wireless networking the network manager | 23:33 |
| MK13 | tenochslb, then the driver probably is having it showed up as a wired interface (hence eth0) | 23:34 |
| MK13 | tenochslb, That is all I can think of right now though, sorry | 23:34 |
| tenochslb | MK13, ok thanks | 23:34 |
| perhamlinux | tenochslb: try installing wicd and see if it works | 23:35 |

| perhamlinux | tenochslb: another wireless managing program | 23:35 |

| perhamlinux | tenochslb: also, posting in forums would be another good idea. usually, many people have problems with wireless on ubuntu. | 23:37 |

I know how to see staging list on web but don't know how to see if it is in the "main" "stable" (I don't know the correct term opposing staging) How can I check if w35und is in the "main" section or taken off completely from the kernel? | 23:51 |
